Hoover’s thugs with badges could commit any violation of the constitutional rights of the country’s citizens with impunity. Remember the scene when the thug said to the lady “who you going to call we are the police.?”

As you pointed out, Hoover got the power from the fact that he had the “dirt” on the president.

Under every previous president the leaders of any of the top secret agencies have gone in with the expressed intent of using that agency to get the dirt on their opponents and friends alike.

When they are not using their powers to collect dirt they are using them to make money by spying on the financial institutions to get insider information.

My daughter sent me your blog. I respect her opinions so I took the time to read Jackie. I can’t believe that I have been so complacent.

It’s no surprise that a new study has found that among both new and established patients, dermatologists are better, overall, at detecting melanomas. I should hope so! After all, they are trained professionals.

But more interestingly, the research also found that “established” patients — those who had been seeing a dermatologist for at least three months — were just as good as their dermatologists at detecting thin (early-stage) melanomas, in particular.

That’s hopeful news, since early detection can make all the difference with this aggressive type of cancer.

At Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center’s Pigmented Lesion Clinic (PLC) in New York City, researchers reviewed 394 patient records dated from January 1998 to December 2008, which included men and women ages 17 to 91 (average age about 62).

The PLC sees patients at high risk for melanoma. Patients are given total body skin exams at least annually and are also given brochures and a personal lesson on how to perform a skin self-exam.

The researchers split the patients into two groups: New and established. Then they compared melanoma detection by dermatologists with detection by each group of patients.

Overall, the majority of melanomas (63% to 82%) were missed by patients and discovered by dermatologists during office exams.

But there was one area, in particular, where certain patients did measure up — which provides a glimmer of hope. Established patients (those who were taught how to inspect their own skin and did) were just as successful as their dermatologists in detecting thin, early-stage melanomas (lesions less than 1 millimeter thick).

So learning how to perform a proper self-exam certainly isn’t useless information. These study results appeared in the July 18, 2011, edition of the Archives of Dermatology.

To find out more, I called Stephen Dusza, DrPH, a research epidemiologist and member of Memorial Sloan-Kettering’s Melanoma Disease Management Team and a coauthor of the study.

THE SKINNY ON SKIN CANCER

The fact that established patients were able to detect thin melanomas just as well as dermatologists is wonderful news, said Dr. Dusza, because the survival rate for melanoma is much higher

– 95% — when lesions are detected at that stage. In contrast, with lesions detected at 1.01 mm to 2.00 mm, five-year survival is about 88%… and at greater than 4 millimeters thick, the survival rate is only about 57%.

In other words, with guidance from our dermatologists and by practicing self-exams, we can become more skilled at detecting thin melanomas — and catching them at their earliest, most beatable stage.

The bottom line is that both physician screening and self-examination are essential and work in concert, said Dr. Dusza.

So ask your dermatologist to teach you how to perform a thorough skin exam that looks specifically for thin lesions.

And make sure that you also visit him or her at least once a year (more often if you’re at high risk for skin cancer), since you can’t see your whole body.

When my sister’s husband made a play for me while she was on vacation. I called her. She didn’t believe me. She called me a slut and told him what I had said.

He told her it was me coming on to him and that I was angry because he had spurned my advances. She called mother and told her. Mother took her word and my two brothers and three other sisters ostracized me.

I hated them for 2 years. But I decided to put my hate to work. I decided to show them who was correct. I went after the bastard.

I didn’t fuck him, but I let him go down on me on tape and I got his confession on tape. I put them both on the internet.

My mother said that she was sorry that she did not believe me, then she said that I should have kept the family dirt within the family.

I reminded her that when she thought I was the family dirt she had no problem airing it to the world. Then I told her to kiss my ass and to get the fuck out of my house.

The rest of the family has since made peace with me. Most are embarrassed that they never gave me an opportunity to tell my side.

My sister forgave the bastard and discovered a year later that our cousin Silvia’s three year old son was his. Then she decided to get a divorce.

She reached out to my new husband to act as her attorney. I told him if he helped the traitorous bitch he would have two divorces to deal with.

That was more that 10 years ago. Today we are all friends again. My mother passed away a year ago. She left the bulk of her estate to me and made me the executrix of her will.

I still piss on the bitch’s grave. For me women who take a man’s word without proof(women lie too) is a useless pawn of men. They get no respect from me.

Nancy, I’m sure you’ll have a few more cries if you lived with the man and thought (do) love him, but anyone who expects women to look and be perfect is just setting you up for disaster, Im going to hope for you something and someone better. And next time, if he hasn’t got what you want under the hood, just politely walk away…there’s a lot of people on this planet, find someone else.
