Turkish Daily News on OBAMA´s visit to Berlin

Division of Epidemiology, American Health Foundation, New York, NY 10017.

A hospital-based, case-control study of 235 male patients with laryngeal cancer and 205 male control patients was conducted to determine the effects of exposure to diesel engine exhaust and diesel fumes and the risk of laryngeal cancer. All patients were interviewed directly in the hospital with a standardized questionnaire that gathered information on smoking habits, alcohol consumption, employment history, and occupational exposures. Occupations that involve substantial exposure to diesel engine exhaust include mainly truck drivers, as well as mine workers, firefighters, and railroad workers. The odds ratio for laryngeal cancer associated with these occupations was 0.96 (95% confidence interval, 0.5 to 1.8). The odds ratio for self-reported exposure to diesel exhaust was 1.47 (95% confidence interval, 0.5 to 4.1). An elevated risk was found for self-reported exposure to diesel fumes (odds ratio, 6.4; 95% confidence interval, 1.8 to 22.6). No association was observed between jobs that entail exposure to diesel fumes, such as automobile mechanics, and the risk of laryngeal cancer. These results show that diesel engine exhaust is unrelated to laryngeal cancer risk. The different findings for self-reported diesel fumes and occupations that involve exposure to diesel fumes could reflect a recall bias.

Married to Another Man
Israel´s Dilemma in Palestine
Two rabbis, visiting Palestine in 1897,observed that the land was like a bride,"beautiful,but married to another man". By which they meant that, if a place was to be found for Israel in Palestine, where would the people of Palestine go? This is a dilemma that Israel has never been able to resolve.

No conflict today is more dangerous than that between Israel and the Palestinians. The implications it has for regional and global security cannot be overstated. The peace process as we know it is dead and no solution is in sight. Nor, as this book argues, will that change until everyone involved in finding a solution accepts the real causes of conflict, and its consequences on the ground.

Leading writer Ghada Karmi explains in fascinating detail the difficulties Israel´s existence created for the Arab world and why the search for a solution has been so elusive. Ultimately,she argues that the conflict will end only once the needs of both Arabs and Israelis are accommodated equally. Her startling conclusions overturn conventional thinking---but they are hard to refute.

Ghada Karmi is one of the world´s most renowned commentators on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and a well-known figure on British radio and TV. Born in Jerusalem, she was forced to leave as a child in 1948 and grew up in Britain where she became a physician, academic and writer. Currently, Karmi is a research fellow and lecturer at the Institute of Arab and Islamic Studies, University of Exeter. She is the author of several books, including her most recent, widely acclaimed memoir, In Search of Fatima.

The problem in the Middle East is not Iraq as they want you to believe - it is Israel, and Israels war against the Palestinian people. It is the tragedy of Palestine, still unresolved, that is the real issue...

They say they are looking for weapons of mass destruction. To them we say look in Israel!

Bush and Blair say they are punishing Iraq for breaching United Nations resolutions, to them we say what about Israel?

Bush and Blair say Iraq has possible links with international terrorism. To them we say go to Israel to see actual state terrorism.

Bush has a list of rogue states that he wants to tackle, but he´s missed out the one rogue state which occupies other peoples land and has weapons of mass destruction - Israel!

Males are the fragile sex


When all the evidence is taken into account, males can be considered the fragile sex, a leading psychiatrist has said.

According to British psychiatrist, Dr Sebastian Kraemer, even before they are born, males are more fragile. While in the womb, a male foetus is more vulnerable to external stress and obstetric complications, than a female foetus.

At birth, girls are, from a development standpoint, more mature than boys. Dr Kraemer points out that the more development problems there are in a child, the more sensitive the care they require. Yet, he adds, difficult babies often receive less good care, precisely because they are more problematic to look after.

Boys are also more vulnerable to maternal postnatal depression, which can trigger conditions such as hyperactivity in them.
