It's a quarterly magazine with valuable health tips that have helped me tremendously. The March/April issue carries an article on breast cancer that every woman should read. The article pointed out that many women who are diagnosed with DCIS or 'ductal carcinoma in situ' are being told they have pre-cancerous symptoms. They are not informed that DCIS is generally a non-progressive breast condition that can remain non-progressive for as long as 40 years. In most cases women are told they have pre-breast cancer and advised to either undergo a mastectomy, radiation or chemo-therapy. Depending on the individual's circumstance, a wait and see approach along with a total change of diet and exercise program often eliminates the condition. One side article discusses the irony between corporate America and breast cancer. Astra-Zeneca for instance manufactures tamoxifen, which is a hormone reducing drug that fights breast cancer. Ironically they also manufacture a pesticide called acetochlor that is increasingly being linked to breast cancer. You will also read how two companies who manufacture breast cancer related products contribute heavily to The American Cancer Society, which brings light to their recommendations of yearly mammograms. I encourage all women no matter your age to grab a copy of this magazine. Men please forward this ezine to the women in your life. Women likewise forward it to your female friends. Well Being Journal is online www.wellbeingjournal.com. Articles are not available online however you can order the magazine if you can not find it in your local book or health food store. [[[[[[[TIMELY TIPS: If you have missed any of my newsletters, they are posted on my blog along with other tips. From my homepage www.goclean.com scroll down until you see Amazing Cleaning Tips 101 on the left. This month usual cleaning tips are regulated to the back burner in order to discuss fire safety. I attended a recent fire and safety seminar at a rally down in California. Mac McCoy "The Fire Guy" is a retired fireman and paramedic. Everything I thought I knew about putting out a fire and escaping a burning building went up in smoke - literally during Mac's demonstration. Outside Mac doused a large board with gasoline and lit it on fire. He attempted to put the fire out with the standard fire extinguishers found in hardware stores. They are filled with a powder he reignited. Further the powder is toxic and spreads everywhere. It was all over the fence, the pavement and you could see it drifting for some distance including onto his clothing. Inside a home it penetrates into places like electrical outlets and damages things like plastic found on kitchen appliances like microwaves. Due to its toxic nature, a hazmat team must be brought in to clean. Mac then demonstrated a fire extinguisher containing foam. After extinguishing a fire he relit the foam and it failed to reignite. Nor did the foam spread like the powder. It's so safe that he even sprayed it on himself and ate a small bit. He said most fires start in the kitchen and advised against using baking soda. Baking Soda must be poured directly over a flame putting clothing in direct contact with the flames. Instead, grab a large pan lid. Start at the chest and use the lid as a shield pushing it toward the flaming pan. This separates the flame allowing you to safely put the lid on the pan. If you bring the lid from the top of the pan, the flames separate and catch your clothing and nearby woodwork on fire. Next Mac recommended storing the extinguisher on top of the counter but away from the stove so it can be reached without the flames catching your clothing on fire. Always leave a pan lid on the counter when you cook. Set your timer for 45 seconds when you turn the stove on to preheat a pan as a reminder that the pad is preheating flammable oil. Next Mac instructed us to sleep with the bedroom door closed. It takes 10 to 15 minutes for fire to burn through a solid bedroom door. Touch the doorknob and door first before opening a door when a fire has started in the home. If both are cool, open the door and spray the outer door with the fire extinguisher giving you additional time to get out the window. Always crawl on the floor to move around the home. Smoke inhalation, which settles in about waist high, kills more people than the fire itself. This is why women should never wear gowns to bed and robes should be avoided especially when cooking. Both make crawling difficult and slow escape through a window. Loose clothing easily ignites from the heat of a burner. Mac emphasized the importance of planning an escape route and where to meet once you are outside the home then practice to make certain your plan works. If you have small children or disabled family members decide who will help whom out of the home and how. Then practice so everyone knows their job. He also emphasized never to look for an animal. Animals hide and looking for them can cost you your life. Read more articles on Mac's website www.macthefireguy.com/Home-old.htm. You can order foam extinguishers from him as well. Call him for guidance on what extinguishers are best for you. You'll need one for each bedroom, the kitchen and I bought one for my truck. I would have burned to death 10 years ago had my truck caught on fire after I was hit head intentionally. It rides in one of my cup holders where it's easy to reach. Don't forget to put a sparkle on your windows with Benya, our February special. This article may only be copied giving full credit to Mary Findley and her website at www.goclean.com.

She once said "Great dreams never even get out of the box. It takes an uncommon amount of guts to put your dreams on the line, to hold them up and say, "How good or how bad am I?" That's where courage comes in."
