POPSStudy: Drinking good for your kidneys! Study shows that moderate drinking prevents kidney cancer. Additionally, It is good for your heart. Don't go crazy though, this study says a glass or two glasses a week of beer or wine, so I guess it doesn't apply to margaritas. Oh well.

POPSNew technique in identifying deadliest form of cancer People diagnosed with pancreatic cancer are generally told they have less than a year to live. Tthe survival rate is only about 10-15% after one year and 1-3% after 5 years. Early detection is key to being a candidate for surgery. By the time symptoms appear, almost 80 % are inoperable. Hopefully, this new technique will enable more people to detect it before it's too late. I had a friend that died from it at 24.

POPSBush vetoes another stem cell research bill This president had single-handedly set medical science back at least 7 years. I know for a fact that the Brazil has already cured a handful type 1 diabetes patients through stem cells. What could be next? Cancer? Why does this president keep letting his religious philosophy hinder medical breakthroughs that will save millions while sacrificing a mass of cells that would not even exist if they weren't collected for that very purpose?
