The amount of sun exposure required to produce a burn varies with each person's pigmentation and ability to produce more melanin. Sunburn results in painful reddened skin. Severe sunburn may produce swelling and blisters. Symptoms may begin as soon as 1 hour after exposure and typically reach their peak after 1 day. Some severely sunburned people develop a fever, chills, and weakness and on rare occasions even may go into shock (characterized by very low blood pressure, fainting, and profound weakness). Several days after a sunburn, people with naturally fair skin may have peeling in the burned area, usually accompanied by itching. These peeled areas are even more sensitive to sunburn for several weeks. People who have had severe sunburns when young are at greater risk of skin cancer in later years even if they have not had long-term sun exposure.

Burns Online Resources Facts About Sunburn Did you know? Exposure to the sun during daily activities and play causes the most sun damage. Overexposure to sunlight before age 18 is most damaging to the skin. What is sunburn? Sunburn is a visible reaction of the skin's exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation, the invisible rays that are part of sunlight. Ultraviolet rays can also cause invisible damage to the skin. Excessive and/or multiple sunburns cause premature aging of the skin and lead to skin cancer. Skin cancer is the most common type of cancer in the US and exposure to the sun is the leading cause of skin cancer. Children often spend a good part of their day playing outdoors in the sun, especially during the summer. Children who have fair skin, moles, or freckles, or who have a family history of skin cancer, are more likely to develop skin cancer in later years.

What potential world crisis could possibly require more battle groups than were deployed during the recent invasion of Iraq? In past years, when the US has seen fit to “show the flag” or flex its naval muscle, one or two carrier groups have sufficed. Why this global show of power? The news headlines about the joint-maneuvers in the South China Sea read: “Saber Rattling Unnerves China”, and: “Huge Show of Force Worries Chinese.” But the reality was quite different, and, as we shall see, has grave ramifications for the continuing US military presence in the Persian Gulf; because operation Summer Pulse reflected a high-level Pentagon decision that an unprecedented show of strength was needed to counter what is viewed as a growing threat –– in the particular case of China, because of Peking’s newest Sovremenny-class destroyers recently acquired from Russia.

The Sunburn Gene You've probably all heard about the genes that cause cancer and other diseases and if you haven't heard about those genes you've probably heard about the ones popularized by Levi Strauss. But now scientists in England have just found the gene that causes sunburn. As a bonus, this gene also tends to give people red hair. How does this gene work? Apparently this gene plays a key role in the body's production of pigment called melanin which is found in hair and skin. Melanin comes in a brown-black form that protects against sunburn by allowing suntanning, and a yellow-red form that may contribute to sunburn. The yellow-red form is most often found in the hair and skin of people with red hair. In a study of 75 people the scientists found that the more sunburn-prone a person's skin, the more likely they were to have a variant version of the gene that preferentially produces the yellow-red melanin. And variants were much more common in people with light red or deep red hair than in blonds, brunettes or those with black hair. Now you don't need a molecular geneticist to tell you that you're a red-head, but if you do sunburn easily you should go out and get some Aligator Skin 50 SPF sunblock because overexposure to the sun's harmful UV rays can induce DNA mutations in skin cells and that spells C A N C E R.

Home About Us Contacts Help ... Feedback SEARCH Global Australia NSW Vic. ... Registered User Services FORECASTS FOR SUN SAFETY Predictions of ultraviolet radiation help the campaign against skin cancer This year, almost 300,000 Australians will visit a doctor or specialist to have a skin cancer (or cancers) removed. Sunburn caused by overexposure to ultraviolet-B (UVB) radiation is known to be the primary cause of skin cancer. To help people choose appropriate levels of protection against skin cancer, the Bureau of Meteorology issues daily forecasts of the UV Index. UV Index forecasts are issued as a map of Australia, a numerical value with descriptive category, and as a graph, for capital cities and towns across Australia. The map, text and graphical forecasts are available via the Bureau's website. The mass media also receive text forecasts along with other Bureau services. Commencing December 2002, the Bureau of Meteorology, Cancer Council Australia and Australian Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety Agency (ARPANSA) adopted the World Health Organisation Global Solar UV Index, for reporting the level of solar UV danger in Australia. The progressive adoption of the Global UV Index by other countries will heighten the awareness of the sun safety message for tourists and residents alike. About ultraviolet radiation The sun emits three types of ultraviolet radiation – UVA, UVB and UVC. UVA penetrates deep into the skin causing damage like wrinkles and discolouration. Exposure to UVB causes sunburn, a skin reaction where blood vessels expand and leak fluids, producing inflammation, pain and redness. Sunburn, whether severe or mild, can cause permanent and irreversible skin damage. Cumulative exposure to UV radiation and the number of severe sunburns received, especially during childhood, increases the risk of developing skin cancer.

Q - T Snoring Sore Throat Sunburn Toothache Snoring "I DO NOT SNORE", says the snorer to their significant other, then the significant other tape records you snoring one night and plays the incriminating evidence against you. At first you think it's some wild animal that escaped from the local zoo, but soon you come to the realization, after saying a million times, "That's not me, is it?" well, you come to the realization that you snore. So here are some cures: Losing some weight reduces snoring. So get on that diet! Alcohol is another no no, because it loosens the muscles and makes snoring worst. Sleep on your side, it makes the snoring a little lower. Have your doctor order you a cervical collar, it may reduce the snoring sound. Apnea, if you have snoring and you stop breathing for a bit, you may have this serious condition called, Apnea. So visit your doctor!

120. LanaKIDS! Sun Avoid getting sunburn on sensitive areas lips, scalp, face and neck If you find yourself with a case of sunburn, try using a topical anesthetic http://www.lanakids.com/sun.html

So Don't Burn... While you may think it is impossible, avoiding the sun's damaging rays is easier than ever, especially with a little preparation. Here are some ways to do so: Avoid getting sunburn on sensitive areas - lips, scalp, face and neck - by wearing protective lip balm, sunscreen and a wide-brimmed hat. Even your eyes can be damaged by the sun. Kids can wear sunglasses, too! Look for shatter-resistant lenses that block UVA and UVB rays. Stay and play in the shade whenever possible. Don't rely on a T-shirt to keep the sun off your skin. A dry T-shirt alone only provides protection equal to a sunscreen with an SPF of 8. If kids swim with the T-shirt on, the wet shirt drops down to a protection level of SPF 4. (The shirts woven fibers allow sunlight to pass through it.) Therefore, put sunscreen all over your body, even if wearing a T-shirt. Avoid the sun between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m., when its rays are strongest. Put sunscreen on, even when it is cloudy out, since the sun's rays can pierce through the clouds unknowingly, causing a sunburn even when you think you won't get one. HERE COMES THE SUN: SUNBURN PREVENTION Being outside in the hot, sunny weather is fun - who doesn't love summer vacation! But, when you're outdoors, even for short periods of time, the sun can be very damaging to your skin. This is especially true during the
