Health is Wealth!

Reason to post this blog – We all know about chemotherapy, radiations which have been used in cancer treatment, though it stops or prevents further growth of cancer cells, it also gives side effects to our healthy cells.

I would suggest all of you to read this article, it is really worth reading!!!





AFTER YEARS OF TELLING PEOPLE CHEMOTHERAPY IS THE ONLY WAY TO TRY AND ELIMINATE CANCER, JOHNS HOPKINS UNIVERSITY IS FINALLY STARTING TO TELL YOU THERE IS AN ALTERNATIVE WAY.

Cancer Update from Johns Hopkins:



1. Every person has cancer cells in the body. These cancer cells do not show up in the standard tests until they have multiplied to a fewbillion. When doctors tell cancer patients that there are no more cancer cells in their bodies aftertreatment, it just means the tests areunable to detect the cancer cells because they have not reached the detectable size.



2. Cancer cells occur between 6 to more than 10 times in a person's lifetime.



3. When the person's immune system is strong the cancer cells will be destroyed and prevented from multiplying and forming tumours.



4. When a person has cancer it indicates the person has multiple nutritional deficiencies.. These could be due to genetic, environmental,food and lifestyle factors.



5. To overcome the multiple nutritional deficiencies, changing diet and including supplements will strengthen the immune system.



6. Chemotherapy involves poisoning the rapidly-growing cancer cells and also destroys rapidly-growing healthy cells in the bone marrow,gastro-intestinal tract etc, and can cause organ damage, like liver, kidneys, heart, lungs etc.



7. Radiation while destroying cancer cells alsoburns, scars and damages healthy cells, tissues and organs.



8. Initial treatment with chemotherapy and radiation will often reduce tumor size.. However prolonged use of chemotherapy and radiation do notresult in more tumor destruction.



9. When the body has too much toxic burden from chemotherapy and radiation the immune system is either compromised or destroyed, hencethe person can succumb to various kinds of infections and complications.



10. Chemotherapy and radiation can cause cancer cells to mutate and become resistant and difficult to destroy. Surgery can also cause cancercells to spread to other sites..



11.. An effective way to battle cancer is to starve the cancer cells by not feeding it with the foods it needs to multiply. WHAT CANCER CELLS FEED ON:

a. Sugar is a cancer-feeder. By cutting off sugar it cuts off one important food supply to the cancer cells. Sugar substitutes likeNutraSweet, Equal,Spoonful, etc are made with Aspartame and it is harmful. A better natural substitute would be Manuka honey or molassesbut only in very sma ll amounts. Table salt has a chemical added to make it white in colour. Better alternative is Bragg's aminos or sea salt.

b. Milk causes the body to produce mucus, especially in the gastro-intestinal tract. Cancer feeds on mucus. By cutting off milk andsubstituting with unsweetened soy milk, cancer cells are being starved.

c. Cancer cells thrive in an acid environment. A meat-based diet is acidic. Meat also contains livestock antibiotics, growth hormones and parasites, which are all harmful, especially to people with cancer.

d. A diet made of 80%fresh vegetables and juice, whole grains, seeds, nuts and a little fruits help put the body into an alkalineenvironment. About 20% can be from cooked food including beans. Fresh vegetable juices provide live enzymes that are easily absorbed and reachdown to cellular levels within 15 minutes to no urish and enhance growth of healthy cells. To obtain live enzymes for building healthy cells tryand drink fresh vegetable juice (most vegetables including bean sprouts) and eat some raw vegetables 2 or 3 times a day. Enzymes are destroyed attemperatures of 104 degrees F (40 degrees C).. e. Avoid coffee, tea, and chocolate, which have high caffeine. Green tea is a better alternative and has cancer-fighting properties.Water-best to drink purified water, or filtered, to avoid known toxins and heavy metals in tap water. Distilled water is acidic, avoid it.



12. Meat protein is difficult to digest and requires a lot ofdigestive enzymes. Undigested meat remaining in the intestines become putrifiedand leads to more toxic buildup.



13. Cancer cell walls have a tough protein covering. By refraining from or eating less meat it frees more enzymes to attack the protein walls ofcancer cells and allows the body's killer cells to destroy the cancer cells.



14. Some supplements build up the immune system (IP6, Flor-ssence, Essiac, anti-oxidants, vitamins, minerals, EFAs etc.) to enable thebody's own killer cells to destroy cancer cells. Other supplements like vitamin E are known to cause apoptosis, or programmed cell death, thebody's normal method of disposing of damaged, unwanted, or unneeded cells.



15. Cancer is a disease of the mind, body, and spirit. A proactive and positive spirit will help the cancer warrior be a survivor. Anger,unforgiveness and bitterness put the body into a stressful and acidic environment. Learn to have aloving and forgiving spirit. Learn to relaxand enjoy life.



16. Cancer cells cannot thrive in an oxygenated environment. Exercising daily, and deep breathing help to get more oxygen down to the cellularlevel. Oxygen therapy is another means employed to destroy cancer cells.

10 Hot Skills for 2009

Linda Leung

Introduction
Whether we are in a down economy, seeing jobs go offshore, or witnessing jobs being cut altogether, there are
certain IT skills that will never go out of style. With spending on cost-saving technologies such as virtualization
rising, and the maintenance of networking and enterprise Microsoft software keeping IT professionals constantly
in demand, here’s our top 10 hot skills that will take us from a down economy and beyond.

10. Business Skills
Employment surveys have been telling us for a number of years that IT pros must possess business skills as well
as technical expertise, and in a down economy IT folks who understand the business could be considered more
valuable than those who don’t. A survey by CompTIA of 215,085 IT pros found that employers valued “interpersonal
and communication” skills in addition to ‘strategic thinking” and “project management” know-how.
The survey, which was conducted in 2007, found that 73% of respondents said they planned to upgrade their
business skills within two years, with the majority studying for project management skills.

9. Programming Languages (C, C++, C#)
Forget about programming jobs being outsourced, experts with C, C++ and C# skills “have emerged as a highly
desired skill set, being cited as ‘in demand’ just as often as Business Intelligence and Enterprise Solutions skills,”
according to the Veritude 2009 IT Outlook Report. Demand for software engineers increased from 27% to 32%,
according Veritude’s survey of IT hiring managers.
Those programming languages are also consistently the top most wanted programming skills in Dice reports. In
February and March, Dice posted 9,881 and 10,465 Cx jobs, respectively.
Software engineering topped Money Magazine and Salary.com’s list of Best Jobs in America 2007, noting that
the number of programming jobs would balloon from 800,050 in 2004, to 1.2 million in 2014. The profession,
with an average annual salary of $80,427, beat college professor and financial advisor in the list.

8. Telecommunications
The government’s $7.2 billion broadband stimulus initiative to extend broadband to rural and unserved communities
will mean jobs for pros with telecom skills. Telecom providers operate in a very competitive market, and while operators cut costs in stagnant areas of their markets, they’re still investing in others. For instance, AT&T
this year cut its capital expenditure by $3 billion but it is investing in 3,000 new jobs for its mobility, broadband,
and video initiatives, reports Unstrung.
Telecoms knowledge is also sought by CIOs. In Robert Half Technology’s Q209 report, telecoms support was the
fifth-highest skill sought by respondents, up from the sixth highest in the previous quarter.

7. Wireless
Cisco generated buzz in its training community late last year when it launched the expert-level CCIE certification
in wireless networking. As part of the launch, it commissioned a study conducted by Forrester Consulting, which
found that 36% of global companies surveyed predicted that the number of dedicated wireless specialists on
their IT staff would almost double in the next five years.
“In our research we found a pervasive need for wireless skills, and not just in North America,” says Sanjay Mehta,
Cisco product marketing manager for wireless and mobility. “The need for experts to design, deploy, manage
and troubleshoot is growing exponentially.” He says the wireless certification is particularly popular in emerging
markets, such as Brazil, India, and China, where new wireless infrastructures are being built from the ground up.

6. IT Security
This skill was called out by Foote Partners as one of three certification groups that saw significant gains in pay.
A total of 18 different security certifications, including Check Point Certified Master Architect and Cisco Certified
Security Professional, were listed among the IT certifications that earned the highest pay premiums in Foote
Partners’ 2009 IT Skills and Certifications Pay Index.
Security will never go out of style, even during a recession, as businesses are required to comply with regulatory
controls and data protection requirements. Meanwhile, hackers continue their assaults no matter what
the economy is doing. A survey by the SANS Institute showed that through the end of November 2009, 79% of
respondents saw no cuts to their security staffing levels.

5. IT Architect/Project Management
The same Foote Partners report also notes that “nothing has been hotter” than IT architect and project management
skills and that “they will still be hot commodities long after the economy improves.” Certified folks in that
category reported pay increases of 10% in the last 12 months to January 2009, according to the Foote Partners
report.
The Open Group’s IT Certified Architect and the Project Management Institute’s Project Management Professional
designations were the certifications that commanded the highest pay premiums, according to the report.

4. ITIL
The Information Technology Infrastructure Library is a business framework that was developed by the U.K.’s
Office of Government Commerce. It is the subject of much buzz on this side of the pond, with firms such as DHL
and General Motors adopting the IT services efficiency framework. A quick search of the Indeed job search aggregator
site netted 6,266 jobs, with salaries ranging from $50,000 to $130,000. ITIL is cited by Foote Partners’
IT Skills and Certification Pay Index report, for the last three months of 2008 as a skill that is seeing a sharp
increase in pay and demand.
Foote Partners notes a “sharp increases in pay and demand for ITIL, CoBIT and similar expertise” in 2009, and
that “while valuable in short range cost reduction initiatives, these are also core enterprise skills with high reuse
value long term.”

3. Networking/Windows Administration
Proving that networking and Microsoft Windows administration skills will likely never go out of style, these two
skills consistently appear as either the first, second, or third most sought after skill in Robert Half Technology’s
quarterly skills surveys. A full 65% (the second highest number) of CIOs surveyed for the Q209 report said they
required network administration skills, while 64% (the third highest) of executives said they needed Windows
admin experts. The skill most in demand in Q209 is desktop support, according to the survey.
Networking/systems admin jobs were cited in the Top 20 Most Recession-Proof Professions report by Jobfox
from data collected during November 2007 to July 2008. The report noted that there is a limited supply of
qualified workers in that profession, and reported that the median salary in the U.S. for such roles is between $65,000 and $75,000.

2. Web 2.0
Organizations have moved beyond establishing Web sites for their brands. Now they are embracing social media
sites such as Twitter and Facebook, where you can find such household names as Ford Motor Company and
AT&T. CIOs in a wide range of organizations are demanding IT professionals who can keep them up to speed
with the fast-moving Web 2.0 world. Web development and Web site design first appeared as a sought-after
skill in Robert Half Technology’s Q408 report, when 42% of CIOs surveyed said they were in needs of such
expertise. In Q209, 39% of respondents had a demand for Web skills.
According to PayScale.com, the typical salary for a Web designer in the U.S. range from $37,285 to $59,070.
This compares to $60,000 for a Web developer, $40,000 for a graphic designer, and $60,000 for a programmer,
according to Simply Hired a search engine for jobs.

1. Virtualization
Virtualization is hot. Vendors are jostling for lead position in the virtualization stakes and user organizations are
seeing virtualization benefits through increased efficiency, lower costs, quick return on investment, and a more
flexible computing model. But virtualization is complex; it encompasses the entire IT infrastructure, from the desktop to servers and storage systems. That’s why IT professionals with virtualization experience are much in demand.
According to a recent article in Virtualization Review, jobs Web site Dice.com reported that the number of jobs advertised from January 2008 through the first week of November increased by 43% and 37% for VMware and general virtualization skills, respectively. That compares with a total job count that was down 12% during the
same period.
Virtualization skills was cited by 35% of the 1,400 CIOs surveyed for the Robert Half Technology IT Hiring Index
and Skills Report for the second quarter of 2009, up from 30% in the Q1 report. Virtualization as a skill first appeared
in the Q208 survey when it was cited by 26% of respondents.
The IT pro who can understand how his employer’s business works and can articulate how technology can be
used to meet and exceed the company’s goals is a true gem.
