Official website of World Cancer Day by UICC | 4 February An international awareness day led by the Union for International Cancer Control (UICC) to raise worldwide attention and inspire action for a cancer-free future.

Today is World Cancer Day.

Cancer touches nearly every family.

We stand with patients and loved ones and with the clinicians, scientists, and advocates working toward prevention, early detection, and better outcomes. πŸ’™

Not only can I not visualize, when teachers talked about doing that back in preK/kindergarten, I thought it was made up like Santa. Wasn't until much later that I realized most people actually can see things in their minds

If anyone's interested in a pair of tickets for the #isles game against the Canucks on 12/19, let me know. Two buddies cancelled, but since tickets were bought with student discount, I can't resell on ticket master. I'd rather they go to a fan than go to waste!

Something pretty funny about, 22+ games in, the Leafs being the only team in the East below .500

Childhood fluoride exposure and cognition across the life course Childhood fluoride exposure is associated with higher academic achievement in high school.

"For each measure of adolescent cognitive performance, students performed better if they were exposed to sufficient levels of fluorideβ€”either throughout childhood, or during part of childhood"
Doesn't seem very much like a neurotoxin at supplement levels!

Been way too busy with classes and tutoring, but trying to make some time to read again. Checked out A Memory Called Empire the other day and I'm glad I did. Off to a great start so far

Service is the truest measure of patriotism. On Veterans Day, we honor all who have taken the oath and worn the uniform - and our nation recommits to keeping its promises to every veteran who served our country.
