Tornado uproots trees, stirs panic in Los Baños

MANILA, Philippines – (UPDATE) A tornado slammed through Los Baños, Laguna, Thursday afternoon, ripping off roofs, uprooting trees and stirring panic among residents.

Eyewitnesses told INQUIRER.net the tornado hit the town between 3 p.m. to 5 pm.

A Catholic nun said in a text message that terrified children in Franciscan Missionary-run school in Los Baños shouted "Tornado!" on seeing the forceful mass of swirling wind.

"We saw flying debris ... roofs, uprooted trees," the nun, identified only as Sister Emma, said in a text message relayed by a priest to the Philippine Daily Inquirer.

“I just can’t imagine it was happening,” the nun said. “I just sat down when the rest of the children began crying and praying ... and I said to myself... ‘God is this how my life would end?’ I was so afraid.”

When the tornado reached the school garden, rain poured down and the tornado shifted direction, she said.

“Several trees were uprooted from our garden. Some things were shattered by the force of the wind. It was really scary. It was a very big tornado. Please pray for our safety,” Sister Emma pleaded.

Harold Grande, an instructor at the College of Development Communication in University of the Philippines Los Baños, said he was inside the classroom when he heard a commotion outside.

"I was at DevCom and the students were shouting outside then I saw it [tornado] forming then it dissipated," said Grande in a phone interview, adding that it seemingly lasted for five minutes.

"It was like those in the movies," he said of the rare phenomenon in the science town of Laguna.

Meanwhile, Pamela Lomaad, a senior BS Economics student at UPLB said the tornado formed twice. She took a video of the phenomenon.

"We saw nets and leaves flying. You can see the tornado really forming," she said.

"Students were amazed at first but they were in panic later," she added.

A Philippine Daily Inquirer editor, quoting jeepney driver Romeo Vasquez, told INQUIRER.net the whirlwind damaged some houses near the main intersection of the town.

AFTER YEARS OF TELLING PEOPLE CHEMOTHERAPY IS THE ONLY WAY TO
TRY (TRY THE KEY WORD) AND ELIMINATE CANCER, JOHN HOPKINS IS
FINALLY STARTING TO TELL YOU THERE IS AN
ALTERNATIVE WAY

 

Cancer Update from John Hopkins :

1. Every person has cancer cells in the body.
These cancer cells do not show up in the standard tests
until they have multiplied to a few billion. When doctors tell
cancer patients that there are no more cancer cells in their
bodies after treatment, it just means the tests are unable to
detect the cancer cells because they have not reached the
detectable size.

2. Cancer cells occur between 6 to more than 10 times in a
person's lifetime.

3. When the person's immune system is strong the cancer cells
will be destroyed and prevented from multiplying and forming
tumours.

4. When a person has cancer it indicates the person has
multiple nutritional deficiencies. These could be due to
genetic, environmental, food and lifestyle factors.

5. To overcome the multiple nutritional deficiencies, changing
diet and including supplements will strengthen the immune
system.

6. Chemotherapy involves poisoning the rapidly-growing cancer
cells and also destroys rapidly-growing healthy cells in the
bone marrow, gastro-intestinal tract etc, and can cause organ
damage, like liver, kidneys, heart, lungs etc.

7. Radiation while destroying cancer cells also burns, scars
and damages healthy cells, tissues and organs.


8. Initial treatment with chemotherapy and radiation will often
reduce tumor size. However prolonged use of chemotherapy and
radiation do not result in more tumor destruction.

9. When the body has too much toxic burden from chemotherapy
and radiation the immune system is either compromised or
destroyed, hence the person can succumb to various kinds of
infections and complications.

10. Chemotherapy and radiation can cause cancer cells to mutate
and become resistant and difficult to destroy. Surgery can also
cause cancer cells to spread to other sites.

11. An effective way to battle cancer is to starve the cancer
cells by not feeding it with the foods it needs to multiply.

CANCER CELLS FEED ON:
a. Sugar is a cancer-feeder. By cutting off sugar it cuts
off one important food supply to the cancer cells. Sugar
substitutes like NutraSweet, Equal, Spoonful, etc are
made with Aspartame and it is harmful. A better natural
substitute would be Manuka honey or molasses but only in
very small amounts. Table salt has a chemical added to
make it white in colour. Better alternative is Bragg's
aminos or sea salt.

b. Milk causes the body to produce mucus, especially in
the gastro-intestinal tract. Cancer feeds on mucus. By
cutting off milk and substituting with unsweetened soya
milk cancer cells are being starved.

c. Cancer cells thrive in an acid environment. A
meat-based diet is acidic and it is best to eat fish, and
a little chicken rather than beef or pork. Meat also
contains livestock antibiotics, growth hormones and
parasites, which are all harmful, especially to people
with cancer.

d. A diet made of 80% fresh vegetables and juice, whole
grains, seeds, nuts and a little fruits help put the body
into an alkaline environment. About 20% can be from
cooked food including beans. Fresh vegetable juices
provide live enzymes that are easily absorbed and reach
down to cellular levels within 15 minutes to nourish and
enhance growth of healthy cells. To obtain live enzymes
for building healthy cells try and drink fresh vegetable
juice (most vegetables including bean sprouts) and eat
some raw vegetables 2 or 3 times a day. Enzymes are
destroyed at temperatures of 104 degrees F (40 degrees
C).

e. Avoid coffee, tea, and chocolate, which have high
caffeine. Green tea is a better alternative and has
cancer-fighting properties. Water- best to drink purified
water, or filtered, to avoid known toxins and heavy
metals in tap water. Distilled water is acidic, avoid it.

12. Meat protein is difficult to digest and requires a lot of
digestive enzymes. Undigested meat remaining in the intestines
become putrified and leads to more toxic buildup.

13. Cancer cell walls have a tough protein covering. By
refraining from or eating less meat it frees more enzymes to
attack the protein walls of cancer cells and allows the body's
killer cells! to destroy the cancer cells.

14. Some supplements build up the immune system (IP6, Flor
ssence,Essiac, anti-oxidants, vitamins, minerals, EFAs etc.) to
enable the body's own killer cells to destroy cancer cells.
Other supplements like vitamin E are known to cause apoptosis,
or programmed cell death, the body's normal method of disposing
of damaged, unwanted, or unneeded cells.

15. Cancer is a disease of the mind, body, and spirit. A
proactiveand positive spirit will help the cancer warrior be a survivor.
Anger, unforgiveness and bitterness put the body into a
stressful and acidic environment. Learn to have a loving and
forgiving spirit. Learn to relax and enjoy life.

1 6. Cancer cells cannot thrive in an oxygenated environment.
Exercising daily, and deep breathing help to get more oxygen
down to the cellular level. Oxygen therapy is another means
employed to destroy cancer cells.

FROM
JOHN HOPKINS HOSPITAL , U. S. -
PLEASE READ

1. No plastic containers in micro.
2. No water bottles in freezer.
3. No plastic wrap in microwave.

Johns Hopkins has recently sent this out in its newsletters.
This information is being circulated at
Walter Reed Army
Medical Center
as well. Dioxin chemicals causes cancer,
especially breast cancer.
Dioxins are highly poisonous to the cells of our
bodies. Don't freeze your plastic bottles with
water in them as this releases dioxins from the
plastic. Recently, Dr. Edward Fujimoto, Wellness
Program Manager at
Castle Hospital was on a TV
program to explain this health hazard.

He talked about dioxins and how bad they are for
us. He said that we should not be heating our food
in the microwave using plastic containers. This
especially applies to foods that contain fat. He
said that the combination of fat, high heat, and
plastics releases dioxin into the food and
ultimately into the cells of the body. Instead, he
recommends using glass, such as CorningWare, Pyrex
or ceramic containers for heating food. You get the
same results, only without the dioxin. So such
things as TV dinners, instant ramen and soup! s,
etc., should be removed from the container and
heated in something else. Paper isn't bad but you
don't know what is in the paper. It's just safer to
use tempered glass, Corning Ware, etc. He reminded
us that a while ago some of the fast food
restaurants moved away from the foam containers to
paper. The dioxin problem is one of the reasons.

Also, he pointed out that plastic wrap, such as
Saran, is just as dangerous when placed over foods
to be cooked in
the microwave. As the food is nuked, the high heat
causes poisonous toxins to actually melt out of the
plastic wrap and drip into the food. Cover food
with a paper towel instead.

important in your life.


Blog EntryA Call for Help.Feb 23, '08 6:51 PM
for everyone
THIS IS A COPY-PASTE REPOST FROM http://hearyeah.multiply.com/journal/item/12/Your_Trash_CAN_Help_4_Lives:

Greetings,

            My family and I are appealing to your good heart to help us in our time of dire need. I, my two brothers and sister, for reasons that defy medical explanation have all been diagnosed with a very rare genetic disease called Neurofibromatosis Type 2 (NF2). NF2 is characterized by the development of non-cancerous tumors in the region of the cranial nerve VIII, which is the auditory-vestibular nerve that transmits sensory information from the inner ear to the brain. Depending on the location, the tumors can affect control, balance, speech, eye movements, facial sensations and most importantly, hearing. Although there is no cure for NF2, the tumors can be surgically removed to stop them from further affecting our health.

            Currently, I have already lost my hearing on my left ear and my right ear has moderate hearing loss. It also affected my balance, which is the reason people constantly think of me as a clumsy person and there are times when I would feel very dizzy. My brother, Niccolo, after undergoing surgery has lost his hearing on his right ear and the same thing may also happen to his left ear. My sister Marie had to undergo an operation on her spinal column, when tumors grew there, to prevent her from being paraplegic. Her left extremities were affected are now not as strong as they were before.

            In most cases, NF2 only occur unilaterally. However, it may also occur bilaterally, which is what happened in our case. And though NF2 is transferred genetically, for four children of the same parents to all inherit the disease is unheard of. Our mother, from whose side we inherited NF2, had already passed away at the age of 27, two months after giving birth to my youngest brother, Lyndon. At the time of our mom’s death, our dad sunk into depression. He couldn’t work anymore.

            We are now under the care of our grandparents who have no financial means to meet the medical costs of the operations and MRI, which we have to undergo every six months. For this reason, we are appealing to you to donate broken and unrepairable appliances that are ready to be disposed of to us. My grandparents will collect the copper in them and then sell it to junk shops to raise money for the treatments. The money will be deposited to our bank account.

            Please accept our heartfelt gratitude and May God greatly enrich you in all your endeavors. Kindly direct all donations to Linda Remigio. Residence phone # 8476820. Cellphone # 09152008242. #10 Mapua St., Phase 4, Pacita 1, San Pedro, Laguna
