Found on that page in the link.... "It is known that exposure to ultraviolet (UV) rays (either from the sun or sunbeds) increases the risk of developing melanoma of the skin. People whose skin burns easily are most at risk: typically, people with fair skin, fair or red hair and blue eyes. However, it is not yet known whether or not there is any link between UV ray exposure and the development of melanoma of the eye." It specifically stated that we don't know if UV light exposure is one cause.

Gee, only ONE VERSE about leaven? Matthew 16:6-12 (NASB) 6And Jesus said to them, "Watch out and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees." 7They began to discuss this among themselves, saying, "He said that because we did not bring any bread." 8But Jesus, aware of this, said, "You men of little faith, why do you discuss among yourselves that you have no bread? 9"Do you not yet understand or remember (J)the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many baskets full you picked up? 10"Or the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many large baskets full you picked up? 11"How is it that you do not understand that I did not speak to you concerning bread? But beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees." 12Then they understood that He did not say to beware of the leaven of bread, but of ========================== I Corinthians 5:1-13 (NASB) 1It is actually reported that there is immorality among you, and immorality of such a kind as does not exist even among the Gentiles, that someone has his father's wife. 2You have become arrogant and have not mourned instead, so that the one who had done this deed would be removed from your midst. 3For I, on my part, though absent in body but present in spirit, have already judged him who has so committed this, as though I were present. 4In the name of our Lord Jesus, when you are assembled, and I with you in spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus, 5I have decided to deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of his flesh, so that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus. 6Your boasting is not good. Do you not know that a little leaven leavens the whole lump of dough? 7Clean out the old leaven so that you may be a new lump, just as you are in fact unleavened. For Christ our Passover also has been sacrificed. 8Therefore let us celebrate the feast, not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth. 9I wrote you in my letter not to associate with immoral people; 10I did not at all mean with the immoral people of this world, or with the covetous and swindlers, or with idolaters, for then you would have to go out of the world. 11But actually, I wrote to you not to associate with any so-called brother if he is an immoral person, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or a swindler--not even to eat with such a one. 12For what have I to do with judging outsiders? Do you not judge those who are within the church? 13But those who are outside, God judges. REMOVE THE WICKED MAN FROM AMONG YOURSELVES. ======================= Galatians 5:9-16 (NASB) 9A little leaven leavens the whole lump of dough. 10I have confidence in you in the Lord that you will adopt no other view; but the one who is disturbing you will bear his judgment, whoever he is. 11But I, brethren, if I still preach circumcision, why am I still persecuted? Then the stumbling block of the cross has been abolished. 12I wish that those who are troubling you would even mutilate themselves. 13For you were called to freedom, brethren; only do not turn your freedom into an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another. 14For the whole Law is fulfilled in one word, in the statement, "YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF." 15But if you bite and devour one another, take care that you are not consumed by one another. 16But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not carry out the desire of the flesh. ============= Not for nothing were we warned "a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump." (I Corinthians 5 AND Galatians 5.) God wanted to let us know that perfectly godly stuff-with a small amount of adulteration- can be degraded so it's no longer what He wanted. (If one is to believe I Corinthians 5 and Galatians 5, anyway- I've seen someone argue against it while claiming they believe the whole Bible.) Do you know how little the amount of CYANIDE it took to turn the "Jonestown koolaid" (flavoraid) from a refreshing drink into a deadly poison? Not a lot. Probably didn't affect the taste, even. Take the ventilation system of a skyscraper, with ionized, filtered air. Clean and pure. Introduce a TINY amount of SARIN to the air, and the people will all suddenly drop dead. Why? Because when something pure has small amounts of something DANGEROUS and DEADLY added to it, adulterating its contents, the entire substance is compromised. Would you be willing to drink a liter of spring water that had a 1/2 ounce of arsenic added? If so, do so in the lobby of the hospital, or you'll never make it in time. ================== Leaven (1.) Hebrews seor (Exodus 12:15, 19; 13:7; Leviticus 2:11), the remnant of dough from the preceding baking which had fermented and become acid. (2.) Hebrews hamets, properly "ferment." In Numbers 6:3, "vinegar of wine" is more correctly "fermented wine." In Exodus 13:7, the proper rendering would be, "Unfermented things [Hebrews matstsoth] shall be consumed during the seven days; and there shall not be seen with thee fermented things [hamets], and there shall not be seen with thee leavened mass [seor] in all thy borders." The chemical definition of ferment or yeast is "a substance in a state of putrefaction, the atoms of which are in a continual motion." The use of leaven was strictly forbidden in all offerings made to the Lord by fire (Leviticus 2:11; 7:12; 8:2; Numbers 6:15). Its secretly penetrating and diffusive power is referred to in 1 Corinthians 5:6. In this respect it is used to illustrate the growth of the kingdom of heaven both in the individual heart and in the world (Matthew 13:33). It is a figure also of corruptness and of perverseness of heart and life (Matthew 16:6, 11; Mark 8:15; 1 Corinthians 5:7, 8). Reference - Easton's Bible Dictionary ================ What does that have to do with this discussion? So long as one holds on to the leaven of twi, whether it be 20, 30, 100 years ago, it is still a problem. Beware the leaven of vpw.

T0m M1tchell was not better off for his experiences in twi. He blew his brains out on twi grounds because he wasn't able to deal with the mog- in this case lcm- having sex with T0m's wife, and he wasn't able to stop it, or approve or accept it. He was NOT better off for his experiences there. ========== I find a bland, ridiculous comment was more along the lines of "let's see if I can change the subject again", and not a matter of "I have something to add to the discussion."

YES! The title for the storyteller was the Sirah. The "ugly cloud" was the Dal'Rok. One of my quotes was when O'Brien tried to tell the story without help. I thought it was worth noting the episode said humans STOPPED playing baseball, since we saw later episodes with humans playing baseball. :) Maddy, your turn!

Is this that new "21" movie?

This is very interesting, and brings up whole new avenues we haven't even considered. There's a few things I CAN say to this. A) A poster here said they'd seen vpw not long before the end, and was offended that they hadn't even bothered to make sure he had decently-fitting clothes. He'd lost a lot of weight in recent months, so his clothes no longer fit him. I don't know HOW thin MOST cancer patients get before the end, but he DID lose some weight. Perhaps it was a tiny amount by comparison to most-I wouldn't know. B) The business about cooking for vpw being such an overwhelming chore had nothing to do with vpw being a demanding diner. (Very little to do with it, anyway.) The thrust of that whole paper was that there wasn't anyone around who was in any way capable of doing ANYTHING right-so cg had to do it himself or it didn't get done. Therefore, he was the "only" one who could cook for vpw. On the other hand, cg had catered to vpw's whims before when he was vpw's driver, so maybe a lot of it really WAS "he knew exactly which parts of his buttocks that vpw wanted smooched and in which order" more than actually cooking a meal. As to the rest, I'm interested in hearing what our medical posters have to say on the subject, and possibly those who observrd him during this timeframe.

Unless they got several thousand new people, I'm of the opinion there's less than 5000 twi-ers nationwide, and that's including children. I'd guess the number closer to something like 3500 nationwide, supposing attrition hasn't completely stopped or reversed. As to the reputed 100,000, that was an inflated number, too. That was the WORLDWIDE total, of people who ever SIGNED UP for pfal. That includes the people who signed up and never showed up for Session 1, the Session 1 attendees who didn't complete the class, the pfal grads who left immediately after the class, and the pfal grads who only stayed for 1-3 months. Across the entire history of twi. I don't know about how many REAL twi-ers that translated to. As one example, when I took pfal, there were 8 people signed up, 7 people who showed up to Session 1, and THREE of us who completed Session 12. (However, all three were regulars who stuck around.)
-
As to what the Dr who signed the death certificate knew, I will say this much: The last time I posted, wondering about actions that particular Dr might have taken concerning vpw's final weeks, one of the posters-who considered him a friend or whatever- went after me rather vociferously, saying that he was far above the slightest HINT of inappropriate behavior. I don't know that for certain for myself, nor do I know for sure that any further speculation in that department will get another set of posts championing the reputation of that Dr, but I thought I'd mention that in case anyone would want to know.

Technically, it does not ADVANCE my theory, but it doesn't contradict it. If it went the other way, I would have an unbroken chain of evidence. Considering I'm doing this from my chair, decades later, with no expert witnesses, I think I got pretty far. And a lot of things are "a factor", but increased sun exposure has not been PROVEN in this "case"-it's being SUPPOSED, SPECULATED. And by "increased", I mean "more than the average similar person who WASN'T getting cancer." Lacking medical records or professional surveys of the locals, we can only SUPPOSE or SPECULATE as to whether there WAS or WASN'T "increased" sun exposure. As such, I didn't bring it up. Pure speculation with nothing to hang it on doesn't get very far. I'd hardly call it "thin air." You seemed to have skipped all the professionalinformation which I linked to and quoted, which went neatly in line with what most of us knew about smoking and drinking- they're really bad. Smoking damages all organs, and causes all sorts of cancers. Drinking damages lots of organs, including the liver, and renders one's immune system more vulnerable to cancer. The only thing I'm missing is a professional statement: "this specific cancer has been known to be caused completely by chronic smoking." Since ocular cancer is rare, I don't expect there's a definitive statement of any kind on it. (Linda pointed that out, too.) That's hardly "thin air." And I'm disappointed you interpreted it so. Is it possible that he succeeded in giving himself "flashburn" for the 14 days of shooting? Since he was able to open his eyes each day of shooting, I'd say he had less of an exposure than someone suffering from "snow-blindness." A La Prochaine posted about that once, and said you can't open your eyes in light for a while after that, since your eyes are sensitized. Perhaps if she's posting lately, she can chime in again. (Then again, I can see what I can find on "snow blindness".) Ok, if I understand correctly, we're currently off the track of "it was UV lights that gave him cancer" and now on "it was very strong conventional lights over 14 days that gave him cancer". Is there any evidence that exposure to bright lights over long periods of time ever leads to cancer? Please link to anything you can find on the subject-it would be news to me so far. What I've been able to find is that people who work with bright lights for months at a time for hours at a time (actors in theaters, crew in theaters) haven't come up as getting ocular cancer. Welding tools are much BRIGHTER, and much CLOSER than any conventional light, and THOSE are risks-that's been indicated by professionals. So far, there's no actual "evidence" saying "the lights did it", and no actual "evidence" saying "the smoking and drinking did it." Professionals seem to agree the smoking MIGHT do it-but haven't actually addressed the question "does smoking cause ocular cancer?" Whether or not professionals might say "bright lights MIGHT cause cancer", we haven't seen yet. So far, that's mostly been ideas on posts here. So, I'm not posting against "evidence" because there hasn't BEEN any- but what I've found so far can make a decent "case." I think that's REASONABLE-proceed from the general to the specific by what is known scientifically. Yes. I get that-to this day-we fundamentally disagree on something from months ago, and I thought we'd gone on with our lives like adults, but instead you're going to hold onto it forever and attack my posts in discussions for an indefinite period of time over it. It was a MUCH cheaper shot than I originally thought. I REALLY thought better of you than this.

Everything I read indicates that cancer in the liver and other places tends to go TO the liver FROM the other places, since the liver is part of the body's filtration system. It would be neater for my theory if it wasn't so, but I'm hardly going to cook the data to match my preferences. I had enough of that in twi for a lifetime.] It's sad because you can't PROVE a negative, which means a lot of ideas stay on the table becausethere's no "smoking gun" that proves they're 100% impossible. If we had a "smoking gun" either way, the discussion would essentially be over- I mentioned one strong possibility right there-farmers all getting eye cancer. That would help settle the issue-even if it settled it where I didn't think it's going. Actually, I have an OPINION. I was unable to find a strong case for the "he was staring into lights that gave him cancer over 14 days that came up a decade later", and I wasn't able to find an unassailable case for "his smoking and drinking gave him cancer and killed him." I was able to find a STRONGER case for the latter- which is why my OPINION is for the LATTER and not the FORMER. The latter proceeds from what we know (he smoked and drank a LOT for DECADES) while the former proceeds from what we speculate (the specific lamps used for 14 days were exactly the type that give cancer). If I found either result, I would go with the evidence. Please don't ignore all the scientific quotes simply because I formed an opinion that matches them.... And I didn't ask for "anecdotal evidence", I asked for "studies" to be produced. If someone had heard something that POINTED to a study, that would help find a completed study. Yet he claimed to have it, spread that story, and someone's claimed the evidence supports it.I don't think the evidence supports it. Why pretend there's NO scientific information, and that no conclusions can be drawn as to likelihood of causes? Nobody's said "this is absolutely 100% guaranteed to be exactly what happened", but conclusions can be drawn as to what is MORE likely and LESS likely. Why is this a problem? I think both Linda and I are quite done with this at the moment-we're agreeing to disagree. Why is this so particular with you? I agree with all of this. But I disagree with the cheap-shot that just HAD to be indulged here. I agree about 'Now I See's points, and about cult-leading being bad.

If someone includes the correct title in their answer, and ONE of the artists who performed it, it is correct. I had to check if that artist DID, since I was using Nilsson's lyrics, but I checked. ANY artist's cover of a song counts as a correct artist. And it gives people who heard different people cover a song over the decades a decent chance to name it.

[i know you and I represent the two positions here on exactly what physical factors were the major contributors to vpw getting cancer. I don't mean any malice toward you, but I do feel the need to dispute some of what you said....] [i did. They showed some film-footage of vpw that was claimed to be him sending off the first wows. He wore sunglasses (which made sense) and sandals with dark socks (which was amusing.) I'm limited to how much film footage I ever saw of him outdoors during the day. You interacted with him live, and perhaps saw him a lot of time out-of-doors, without sunglasses. However, he DID wear them from time to time. Has anyone heard that lots of the local farmers ended up getting eye cancer? If someone can produce some studies on that, my position suddenly looks a lot weaker. Sadly, I can't use the absence of such a study as proof it didn't happen- you can't prove a negative.] [You didn't provide a link to the article. http://www.sickamongthepure.net/uvradiation/fluorescent.html I question just how close "close proximity" means here, and how long a time "long periods" means here. "Close proximity" to me means "I can pick up an umbrella and tap the light source". From the photos in "the Way:Living in Love", the distances were much greater-effectively across a large living room. And "long periods" to me means "at work across months nearly a year, or more than a year", if it doesn't mean more. I question whether 14 days across the room from a halogen or xenon lamp- which we still can't prove were in the room- would have produced the effect spoken of in this article. By comparison, I found this article about warnings. http://lib.bioinfo.pl/pmid:11545460 "The analysis based on the job exposure matrix showed a significantly increased risk of ocular melanoma in occupational groups exposed to artificial ultraviolet radiation, but not in outdoor occupational groups exposed to sunlight. An elevated risk of ocular melanoma was seen among welders (odds ratio = 7.3; 95% confidence interval = 2.6-20.1 for men), and a dose-response relationship with job duration was observed." "CONCLUSION: Following the present study, the existence of an excess risk of ocular melanoma in welders may now be considered as established. Exposure to ultraviolet light is a likely causal agent, but a possible role of other exposures in the welding processes should not be overlooked." Being a WELDER for YEARS is a risk for ocular melanoma. That's a whole order of magnitude CLOSER to a light source which is BRIGHTER over MONTHS AND YEARS and not 2 weeks.] [Question.Positing the existence of a studio with lights that give off large amounts of UV light. Positing a man with fair skin and light eyes-supposedly more sensitive to UV light- works there. Positing he works there for 2 weeks, and receives large amounts of UV light, enough to hurt his eyes. Would not this same man be getting SUNBURN ON HIS FACE after several days of exposure? We've NEVER seen a story where vpw got SUNBURNED from filming pfal. On the other hand, we also know that exposure to bright lights that are NOT UV lights can result in feelings like this. Really bright, standard lightbulbs will result in burning and painful sensations, light sensitivity, and irritation-which means tearing. (I'm not sure about the foreign object thing, but that's pretty subjective anyway.)] [Technically true. We can't even say exactly what definitely WILL and definitely WON'T cause cancer. George Burns smoked cigars and lived to 100. Some children never smoke and die of cancer. However, we can address what will increase and what will decrease the chances for getting cancer.] [We live in a fallen world, in fallen bodies, and are exposed to dangerous things in the air we breathe, and the food we eat. All of those, I would trace, ultimately, to malefic causes. That's far from saying a demon is immediately present at every instance of cancer. And if vpw was 1/2 the man he was putting forth he was, he should have been radiating anti-demon presence for several feet around him. This should have made it nearly impossible for demons to enter the same ROOM with him. His "demonic activity causes cancer" idea is incompatible with the image he put forth of himself.]

His Death Certificate says the cause of death was "metastatic melanoma of the liver" and "ocular melanoma," which means the cause of death was cancer of the liver and eye. Here's what the experts known as the American Cancer Society say: http://www.cancer.org/docroot/PED/ped_10.asp "Tobacco and Cancer. Smoking damages nearly every organ in the human body, is linked to at least 10 different cancers, and accounts for some 30% of all cancer deaths." So, tobacco is a known carcinogen (cancer-causing agent), and damages nearly every organ. That would include the eye, the liver, or both. In case someone needs that specified, however.... http://www.news-medical.net/?id=10150 "Although studies across the globe have examined the link between smoking and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the most common form of liver cancer, little research has been done in North America, where liver cancer is on the rise. Researchers at the Indiana University School of Medicine found that a history of smoking significantly increased the risk of liver cancer. Investigators compared the records of patients diagnosed with HCC to chronic liver disease patients who did not have HCC. Results showed that people who have more than a pack per day over ten years were more likely to develop liver cancer than their non-smoking counterparts who suffer from chronic liver disease." ""As with other organs in the body, the effects of tobacco can have damaging consequences on the liver, significantly increasing the risk of developing liver cancer," said Paul Kwo, M.D., of Indiana University and lead study author. "Smoking cessation is one major way that patients can be proactive in preventing liver cancer, especially if they already suffer from chronic liver disease." http://monographs.iarc.fr/ENG/Monographs/vol83/volume83.pdf Tobacco Smoking and Tobacco Smoke, Summary of Data Reported and Evaluation (International Agency for Research on Cancer The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) is part of the World Health Organization (WHO).) There is now sufficient evidence to judge the association between tobacco smoking and liver cancer as causal." As for the eye.... http://www.medem.com/medlb/article_detaill...E&sub_cat=0 (courtesy of the American Academy on Opthalmology) They concern themselves with the occurrence of cataracts as a result of smoking, primarily. ====== What about chronic drinking of alcohol? http://www.elc.org.uk/pages/healthimmunesystem.htm "2. Excess alcohol Excessive alcohol intake can harm the body's immune system in two ways. First, it produces an overall nutritional deficiency, depriving the body of valuable immune- boosting nutrients. Second, alcohol, like sugar, consumed in excess can reduce the ability of white cells to kill germs. High doses of alcohol suppress the ability of the white blood cells to multiply, inhibit the action of killer white cells on cancer cells, and lessen the ability of macrophages to produce tumour necrosis factors. One drink (the equivalent of 12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of wine, or 1 ounces of hard liquor) does not appear to bother the immune system, but three or more drinks do. Damage to the immune system increases in proportion to the quantity of alcohol consumed. Amounts of alcohol that are enough to cause intoxication are also enough to suppress immunity. " http://pubs.niaaa.nih.gov/publications/aa15.htm "Alcohol can impair normal immune responses that protect the body from disease (6,7,8). Chronic alcohol consumption has been shown to reduce the number of infection-fighting white blood cells in laboratory animals (9,10,11) and in humans (12,13). Chronic alcohol ingestion or alcohol dependence can depress antibody production and other immune responses in animals (10,9) and in humans (14,15). Alcohol can suppress activities of certain immune system cells, called macrophages, that help keep the lungs free from infection (16,17). In addition, alcoholics appear to be more susceptible to bacterial infections and cancer than are nonalcoholics (18,19). Studies in animals and in humans indicate that consuming alcohol during pregnancy can decrease immune resistance in the offspring (20,21,22)." http://www.hiv.va.gov/vahiv?page=alc-01-01 "The organ in your body that alcohol and other drugs affect most is your liver. The liver rounds up waste from chemicals that you put in your body. Those chemicals include recreational drugs as well as prescription drugs, such as your HIV medications. A weaker liver means less efficient "housekeeping" and, probably, a weaker you." http://www.health.state.ny.us/statistics/c...bouts/liver.htm "You can reduce your chances of getting liver cancer by consuming alcoholic beverages only in moderation." =========== So, we know-from reputed sources like the American Cancer Society, and the US National Institute of Health, that drinking lots of alcohol, long-term, and smoking, long-term, are risk factors that make a person MUCH more likely to get cancer-including cancer of the liver, and cancer of the eye- than people who don't drink or smoke. This really shouldn't come as news to us-we should already know that both are bad for you, and can damage organs. So, what about bright lights? A few web-searches will show you there's almost no "hits" when looking at possible connections between "ocular cancer" and "bright lights" or even "halogen lamps" (which someone suggested MIGHT have been present since those supposedly have been claimed to cause SKIN cancer.) In fact, one of the few hits for either is the speculation on the GSC. Actors have spent decades on stage. I asked someone who's performed on stage and as a stagehand for DECADES, and he can't even remember hearing ONE actor came down with eye cancer. That's among people who spend hour after hour for week after week for SEVERAL MONTHS with bright lights. But I'm supposed to believe that a man who smoked for DECADES and drank for DECADES and then spent 14 days among bright lights-and those lights gave him cancer. I'd easily believe that the smoking and drinking gave him cancer, and the bright lights irritated weakened eyes in the early stages of ocular cancer. (Why was vpw the ONLY one who was recording at the time who was wearing ice on his eyes in-between filming?) Until someone can find some more actors who got eye cancer supposedly from bright lights, or from filming, I consider this speculation -and ridiculous speculation, when OBVIOUS causes are ALREADY PRESENT.
