What Color Should The “cause Ribbon” For “dumbf*ck Awareness” Be?

The purpose is to raise awareness of the problem of people believing that marches, cause ribbons, etc. actually make a difference.
“raising awareness”doesn’t do any good if all the people who become aware just participate in the next awareness raising event.

It’s Time to take a stand!
My organization is going to change the world with the revolutionary tools of cause ribbons and student walkouts!
But seriously, what color should our ribbons be?

What Evidence Supports The Assumption That Autism Can Not Be Cured?

I’m curious. I’ve always believed that autism can be corrected (perhaps cured is not the appropriate word). . . we just don’t have the means to do so yet. There has been tremendous success in mainstreaming high functioning autistic children and I think it is just a matter of time before the medical and educational community comes up with a better way to teach lower functioning children. However, many do not agree . . .

What Does It Mean When Breast Cancer (level 1 Tumor) Has Already Gone Into The Bones?

I have a dear family member who went to the doctor because of a fall – turned out she fractured her pelvis – but in the course of investigating it, the doctor discovered lesions in the bones pretty much all over her body. Turns out she has a level 1 tumor in her breast and that the lesions in her bones are also breast cancer. For some reason, the doctors are NOT giving her a death sentence, but I have always heard that when a cancer spreads to the bones or another organ, then there is pretty much no hope. So, is there actually hope now?

What Kind Of Tests Or Examinations Should Be Done For Breast Cancer?

So I am 20 years old and I began to become more worried about breast cancer.
There is no history of breast cancer in my family but I just thought it would be good to do some early testing just in case.
So I was wondering, what kind of tests should be done to detect breast cancer at age 20? I heard that mannograms should be done around 35. Is there any other examinations that you can do at an early age? And if there is where can I get them done? Regular family physician, gynocologist? Thanks everyone!
