Cancer is a group of diseases involving abnormal cell growth with the potential to invade or spread to other parts of the body.^[1][2] Not all tumors are cancerous; benign tumors do not spread to other parts of the body.^[2] Possible signs and symptoms include: a new lump, abnormal bleeding, a prolonged cough, unexplained weight loss, and a change in bowel movements among others.^[3] While these symptoms may indicate cancer, they may also occur due to other issues.^[3] There are over 100 different known cancers that affect humans.^[2]
Tobacco use is the cause of about 22% of cancer deaths.^[1] Another 10% is due to obesity, a poor diet, lack of physical activity, and consumption of alcohol.^[1][4] Other factors include certain infections, exposure to ionizing radiation, and environmental pollutants.^[5] In the developing world nearly 20% of cancers are due to infections such as hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and human papillomavirus (HPV).^[1] These factors act, at least partly, by changing the genes of a cell.^[6] Typically many such genetic changes are required before cancer develops.^[6] Approximately 5–10% of cancers are due to genetic defects inherited from a person's parents.^[7] Cancer can be detected by certain signs and symptoms or screening tests.^[1] It is then typically further investigated by medical imaging and confirmed by biopsy.^[8]
Many cancers can be prevented by not smoking, maintaining a healthy weight, not drinking too much alcohol, eating plenty of vegetables, fruits and whole grains, being vaccinated against certain infectious diseases, not eating too much processed and red meat, and avoiding too much exposure to sunlight.^[9][10] Early detection through screening is useful for cervical and colorectal cancer.^[11] The benefits of screening in breast cancer are controversial.^[11][12] Cancer is often treated with some combination of radiation therapy, surgery, chemotherapy, and targeted therapy.^[1][13] Pain and symptom management are an important part of care. Palliative care is particularly important in those with advanced disease.^[1] The chance of survival depends on the type of cancer and extent of disease at the start of treatment.^[6] In children under 15 at diagnosis the five-year survival rate in the developed world is on average 80%.^[14] For cancer in the United States the average five-year survival rate is 66%.^[15]
In 2012 about 14.1 million new cases of cancer occurred globally (not including skin cancer other than melanoma).^[6] It caused about 8.2 million deaths or 14.6% of all human deaths.^[6][16] The most common types of cancer in males are lung cancer, prostate cancer, colorectal cancer, and stomach cancer, and in females, the most common types are breast cancer, colorectal cancer, lung cancer, and cervical cancer.^[6] If skin cancer other than melanoma were included in total new cancers each year it would account for around 40% of cases.^[17][18] In children, acute lymphoblastic leukaemia and brain tumors are most common except in Africa where non-Hodgkin lymphoma occurs more often.^[14] In 2012, about 165,000 children under 15 years of age were diagnosed with cancer. The risk of cancer increases significantly with age and many cancers occur more commonly in developed countries.^[6] Rates are increasing as more people live to an old age and as lifestyle changes occur in the developing world.^[19] The financial costs of cancer have been estimated at $1.16 trillion US dollars per year as of 2010.^[20]

Today I'm gonna take a moment here to tell you what is HIV/AIDS how do you get it what happens and how to prevent it. I know people are educated much more nowadays but still some people don't know what it is and how to prevent it so here's what happens..


Human immunodeficiency virus infection and acquired immune deficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS) is a spectrum of conditions caused by infection with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).^[5][6][7] Following initial infection, a person may not notice any symptoms or may experience a brief period of influenza-like illness.^[8] Typically, this is followed by a prolonged period with no symptoms.^[9] As the infection progresses, it interferes more with the immune system, increasing the risk of common infections like tuberculosis, as well as other opportunistic infections, and tumors that rarely affect people who have working immune systems.^[8] These late symptoms of infection are referred to as AIDS.^[9] This stage is often also associated with weight loss.^[9]
HIV is spread primarily by unprotected sex (including anal and oral sex), contaminated blood transfusions, hypodermic needles, and from mother to child during pregnancy, delivery, or breastfeeding.^[10] Some bodily fluids, such as saliva and tears, do not transmit HIV.^[11] Methods of prevention include safe sex, needle-exchange programs, treating those who are infected, and male circumcision.^[8] Disease in a baby can often be prevented by giving both the mother and child antiretroviral medication.^[8] There is no cure or vaccine; however, antiretroviral treatment can slow the course of the disease and may lead to a near-normal life expectancy.^[9][12] Treatment is recommended as soon as the diagnosis is made.^[13] Without treatment, the average survival time after infection is 11 years.^[14]
In 2014 about 36.9 million people were living with HIV and it resulted in 1.2 million deaths.^[8] Most of those infected live in sub-Saharan Africa.^[8] Between its discovery and 2014 AIDS has caused an estimated 39 million deaths worldwide.^[15] HIV/AIDS is considered a pandemic—a disease outbreak which is present over a large area and is actively spreading.^[16] HIV is believed to have originated in west-central Africa during the late 19th or early 20th century.^[17] AIDS was first recognized by the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in 1981 and its cause—HIV infection—was identified in the early part of the decade.^[18]
HIV/AIDS has had a great impact on society, both as an illness and as a source of discrimination.^[19] The disease also has large economic impacts.^[19] There are many misconceptions about HIV/AIDS such as the belief that it can be transmitted by casual non-sexual contact.^[20] The disease has become subject to many controversies involving religion including the Catholic church's decision not to support condom use as prevention.^[21] It has attracted international medical and political attention as well as large-scale funding since it was identified in the 1980s.[

NASA scientists captured images of a supernova, or an exploding star, for the first time yesterday and we are totally transfixed by the video. While NASA has been able to see supernovae for some time, they were only capable of obtaintaing video of the ephemeral flash by monitoring 500 galaxies every 30 minutes for three years. And we're so elated they did.
Scientists used a Keplar space telescope to catch the star as it burst — it's the same telescope that has successfully discovered thousands of other planets. The supernova in the video, technically named KSN 2011d, is a red supergiant, which has the greatest volume of all the star classifications though they are not the biggest stars in size. Supergiants are also considered to be some of the most luminous stars — and that's definitely apparent here! Keplar was able to spot KSN 2011d's 20-minute blast, despite being 1.2 billion light years away. We're not exactly sure how far away that is, but we're positive Google Maps cannot get you there. The discovery is a monumental step in dissecting the life cycle of stars and it's especially indicative of how different classifications of stars end their life cycles. As NASA analyzes its findings, we're just going to sit mesmerized by the supernova's explosion. Maybe after several hundred loops we'll watch this video of two black holes colliding.

Some of us struggle to hit 11 "likes" on a selfie, but this Massachusetts grandfather has thousands on a snap posted to his granddaughter's Facebook. Alfred Birch is a soon-to-be 98-year-old who asked his daughter (and the Internet) to help him get 98 "likes" on a photo of himself for his birthday on March 28. Check out his adorable picture below.

In the cute snap posted to Facebook, Alfred is shown laying in a hospital bed in good spirits while holding up a pretty hilarious sign that reads, "My daughter does not think I can get 98 likes for being 98 years old. Can we prove her wrong? 1 like = Respect!" Well, his daughter was definitely proven wrong, as just several days after the picture was posted, it went completely viral and Alfred has more than 50,000 "likes" and 4,000 comments. At this rate, it already looks like Alfred is in for the best 98th birthday celebration ever.

A disgraced former doctor who was convicted Monday of raping a patient is suspected of trying to interfere with jurors by disguising himself in a Mineola courthouse before leaving them a note about “reasonable doubt,” sources said.
The Nassau district attorney’s office has a jury-tampering probe underway into the actions of Marshall Hubsher, 66, of Sands Point, according to officials with knowledge of the case.
A transcript from the trial of Hubsher, a psychiatrist who lost his medical license and faces a separate prosecution on charges he sold pill prescriptions, shows court officers on Monday morning found the same note on doors and tables of two jury rooms.
2 docs accused of pill prescriptions conspiracy Psychiatrist pleads not guilty to rape charge Hubsher first came in the courthouse wearing a leather jacket and a hat and holding papers, according to sources. Then he left without the papers and returned a short time later in different garb to attend his trial, according to sources, who said the investigation includes video footage.
The jury then found Hubsher — who is now jailed — guilty of third-degree rape and third-degree criminal sexual act for sexually abusing a female patient he was treating for depression.
Jurors told state Supreme Court Justice Angelo Delligatti they hadn’t seen the notes, but the judge warned Hubsher he would be in trouble if he had planted them.
“I have also reason to believe, Mr. Hubsher, that you were in the courthouse this morning not dressed in a suit or the way you are now, and that you were seen leaving the courthouse at about nine o’clock this morning. It was shortly thereafter that these notes were found,” Delligatti said. “If I find that you are the one who put this in here, there will be serious consequences.”
The three-paragraph typed note, which Newsday obtained Tuesday, was addressed “To All Jurors-Please read.”
It gave “examples of reasonable doubt,” such as if a witness “had a motive or reason to lie, ie; financial gain,” or may have been “mistaken in memory . . . due to mental illness or disorder.”
A spokesman for District Attorney Madeline Singas declined to comment Tuesday.
But Assistant District Attorney Cristina Colon said in court Monday that based on observations reported to her, it was “highly likely” Hubsher “was the person who put those notes inside of the jury room.”
Hubsher’s lawyer, David Schwartz, denied Tuesday that his client had anything to do with the materials and said Hubsher planned to appeal the verdict.
The Garden City attorney also said he planned to investigate how a jury that was deadlocked on Friday could reach a verdict first thing Monday.

The International Criminal Court convicted former Congolese Vice President Jean-Pierre Bemba of war crimes and crimes against humanity for the murders and rapes carried out by his militia in the Central African Republic in 2002-03.
The court found that Bemba knew the "forces under his effective authority and control were committing or about to commit the crimes charged" and that he "failed to take all necessary and reasonable measures to prevent or repress the commission of crimes by his subordinates."
It is the first time the court has convicted a suspect based on his role as a military commander, The Associated Press reports. It's also the first time this court has recognized rape as a war crime and crime against humanity.
The New York Times reports that "largely because of pressure from human rights advocates and women's groups, organized or mass rape is increasingly being recognized and prosecuted as a weapon of war, not as a byproduct of it."
The newspaper adds:

"Other international courts, including the United Nations tribunals for war crimes in the former Yugoslavia and in Rwanda, have issued convictions for rape as a war crime and a crimes against humanity — but Monday was the first time the International Criminal Court, in The Hague, had done so."

The court's panel, composed of three judges — all women — found evidence that the soldiers under Bemba's command "committed many acts of pillaging, rape, and murder against civilians, over a large geographical area" during the armed conflict in the Central African Republic from October 2002 to March 2003. The court also found the soldiers "searched 'house-to-house' for remaining rebels, raping civilians, pillaging their belongings, and, on some occasions, killing those who resisted."
Bemba, a millionaire businessman who went into exile after losing the 2006 elections, was arrested on May 24, 2008, in Belgium, and was turned over to the court a few weeks later. In his trial, which spanned four years, the court considered 733 items of evidence, 5724 pages of documents and 77 witnesses, according to the ICC's website. The judges then took more than a year to deliberate before issuing the conviction, saying they "took the time necessary to evaluate the totality of the large amount of evidence."
The maximum sentence for Bemba is 30 years in prison, and he has 30 days to appeal the conviction.
