As he has said "My diagnosis was a bad thing (he had stage 3 melanoma) but it was also a good thing, because we can save lives." He no longer has his job as a truck driver but has devoted his life to spreading the word about skin cancer. Now that the ban has been mentioned he "would like to think Clare Oliver is looking down from heaven with a smile on her face." The banning of solariums will have an impact on many people, therefore why are we still waiting till 2014? The smart choice would be to simply ban them immediately.
Today I'm going to talking about melanoma. For those who don't know, melanoma is a type of skin cancer. I personally do not know anyone who has suffered from this disease.

Restrictions on Tanning Beds November 20, 2012 There are many things in today’s society that can cause cancer. The one thing I will be focusing on is tanning beds and UV radiation. Tanning beds developed in Europe. The company invented individual UV tanning lamps created to help patients develop more Vitamin D and to absorb Calcium. Coco Chanel and Josephine Baker sported golden brown skin.
Buddy Ortiz Case study Xt 320 There is no such thing as a wrong reaction to being told you have cancer. Anger, sadness, frustration, fear and courage are just a few of the emotions a man may experience when he is first told he has prostate cancer.

Rebuttal to Negative Effects of Tanning Beds Many people see individuals who use the tanning bed too much and think that tanning indoors is bad for them when in reality there are many benefits to indoor tanning. This is a controversial topic because many believe that melanoma cancer is directly related to indoor tanning. The author of the article I found online believes this too and while they tried to make a compelling case it just does not hold up to the facts that I have found myself that indoor tanning does have benefits. The article that I located about the negative effects of tanning beds on livestrong.com explains that excessive exposure [of tanning beds] can lead to problems such as skin cancer, eye cancer, and that they are considered unsafe by organizations such as the U.S Food & Drug Administration and American Academy of Dermatology (Welton, 2011, Skin Cancer). In response to this, it is fact that the U.S Food and Drug Administration does regulate the indoor tanning industry so it does stay safe for individuals to use (Welton, 2011).

“Smoking before surgery puts you at a higher risk for postoperative heart attacks, blood clots, pneumonia and even death,” says general surgeon Kevin El-Hayek, MD. “When I schedule surgery, I tell my patients they should stop smoking right away.” In comparing smokers with former smokers researchers found that smokers were not only 17 percent more likely to die, but also 53 percent more likely to have serious heart and lung problems (Smoking Before Surgery Increases Risk of Death). Cigarette smoking is extremely dangerous for a smoker and even those around the smoker. The smoke from the cigarette and the smoke exhaled by a smoker are causes of secondhand smoking. Each
You would think if I could fight a Heroin addiction, I can quit smoking. One thing that I know that would benefit other people if smokers quit, is second hand smoke. “Secondhand smoke is associated with disease and premature death in nonsmoking adults and children. Exposure to secondhand smoke irritates the airways and has immediate harmful effects on a person’s heart and blood vessels. It may increase the risk of heart disease by an estimate 25 to 30 percent…” If we could ban cigarettes all together, I bet the amount of cancer problems we have will dramatically lessen.
Although their views on the proposition are unknown, former California Chef Justice Ronald M. George and current Chief Tani Cantil-Sakauye, both Republican former prosecutors, have stated publicly that the death penalty system is not working.
