Breast Cancer, Hackers, and Sullana Talents

be careful about the security of your social media. Also,  culture from Sullana impacts the world.

 

The Day to Fight against Breast Cancer was observed last October 19^th. Specialists called the attention again about this is the type of cancer causing more mortality in women.

Numbers from world Health Organization state 12 women will suffer from breast cancer along their lives. Only speaking of Peru, the same source says 685 thousand women died because of that disease in 2020.

Breast cancer breaks out when breast cells suffer mutations or changes in their DNA.Let’s remember DNA is the molecule containing the whole programming of functions and features of our bodies.

We inherit DNA from our fathers and mothers… and their fathers and their mothers. In fact, the most prevalence of breast cancer has inherited origin. In other words, if there were cases of this disease among your relatives, it’s probable you can get it. However, this theory is not conclusive.

Hundreds of factors can propitiate this disease to appear. What the Medicine does guarantee us is if the breast cancer, as well as any type of cancer, is detected in early moments, the chance to heal is high.

Right now, the breast self-exam is the first way to detect if you have any little suspicious bulge. If so, go immediately to your oncologist for having more specialized tests.

And if you have to start any treatment, just do it.

Celebrities diagnosed with breast cancer, who survived the disease, are actress Shannon Doherty, Matthew Knowles, actress Julia Louis Dreyffuss, journalist Joan London, presenter Giuliana Ransic, or journalist Andrea Mitchell. Look for their life stories on the web, and learn how they encouraged to face the disease. Life was their main choice.

In the list, I also included men. Yes, not much as women, but men also can get breast cancer. Remember, early detection saves lives.

Meanwhile, we comfort Friends and families whose passed away because of this disease. Our prays are with everyone of you.

 

Chasing the hacker

Here in Sullana, journalist Midian Agurto, Sullana en la Noticia’s publisher and editor, denounced her Facebook fanpage was hacked. Sullana en la Noticia is a Sullana City  affiliate of TresAlHilo, our Spanish language newscast.

According to Agurto, she lost the managing  of her fanpage in October 17^th afternoon.

On her show aired by Sullana based Millenium Radio, the journalist told she achieved to contact the hacker. Eventually after a negotiation process, the presumed cyber attacker promised to get back the fanpage control.It didn’t happen until our deadline.

Sullana en la Noticia is characterized by impartiality and criticism on Sullana reality. Some colleagues from other media have expressed solidarity with the journalist. Live Connection considers this is an attack against press freedom and speech freedom.

We also suggest every content creator to lock by using the own toolsprovided by social media for avoiding these attacks.

An actor and an anthropologist

Actor Nerit Olaya is in Cuba. He’s not on vacation, but an artistic tour. After a time he spent here in Sullana, he took a flight to the island.

Olaya told me he is leading workshops and acting in plays. Last weekend, the actor was recognized with Palabras Vivas Award in Las Tunas. The last week, he was in Holguín. He runs a dramatized reading show.

Last Friday, he performed Como en las películas, Like The Movies. Last Saturday, he enacted Del amor y otros desvaríos, About Love & Other Ravings. The play includes a tale from the Chilean writer Isabel Allendé, who currently lives in Los Angeles, California.

For October 29^th and 30^th, Olaya will be stil in Holguin, Cuba. That will be the time of La Tregua, The Truce, based upon the novel by Uruguayan Mario Benedetti.

As much as I know, Olaya’s future plans are coming to live and work here, in Sullana.

In non-fiction, there is another interesting releasing. Sullana-native anthropologist Elim Aguirre

has been presenting her first book. It’s entitled el Regreso de los Tallanés, The Return of Tallanés.

It’s about the cultural legacy of a Pre-Hispanic people living and working here, in Chira Valley. The so-called Tallán nation broke out circa 6^th century AD. Their golden age ran from 1100 to 1500 AD. It’s supposed they were conquered by the Spanish in 1532.

Miss Aguirré’s book includes the script of  a theater play reenacting the Spanish foundation of San Miguel in Tangarara, the first settlement the conquerors established at Chira Valley. The town persists today 12 miles away Sullana City, in Marcavelica District.

The book also has a QR code. Wen you scan it with your smartphphone,it displays the full performance on the stage, as well as interviewsd with archaeologists and other researchers.

El Regreso de los Tallanés is published by Editorial Universidad de Navarra, based in Pamplona, Spain.

Shampoo, exportation, and quakes

If you like mango, Peru is up to export it, and this land doesn’t stop to shake.

 

Don’t lose your head

Last Tuesday 25^th, many spray shampoo brands were taken out of the market. Unilever took out Dove, Suave, and Tiggy, among others.

The cause is benzine. This is a petroleum-derivate capable to give cancer. The lot was made in October 2021. It was delivered to retailers across the US. The information came out from the Food and Drugs Administration, the FDA.

According to CNN, benzine can cause cancer to humans. The ways to enter our bodies are by breathing it, through the mouth, and through the skin. The chemical can cause leukemia and blood cancer.

FDA recommended the consumers not to use spray dry shampoo. If you live in the US, go to unileverrecall.com for further information. We ignore if the recommendation reaches other countries. Follow me as @nelsonsullana for updates.

 

It’s mango time

Here in Piura Department, the mango season is already started. The Mango exporters Association, or APEM as in Spanish, announced the international sales may reach until 285,000 tons. To make a comparison, the last mango season, Peru sold almost 328,000 tons. This is 73,000 tons more than the estimation for this season.

Mango season officially begins in September, ends in March. Peru sold 447 million dollars the last mango season, according to freshfruit.pe. The stats include fresh mango, cold mango, and processed mango. According to freshfruit, it was a significant amount, but not enough.

The oficial numbers are more conservative for the last mango season. Peru’s Ministry of agrarian Development and Irrigation reported over 240,000 tons. This is 45,000 tons les than the estimation for actual mango season.

Here in Piura Department, the main mango grower is San Lorenzo Valley. This is about 30 miles away my actual location. I’m talking about the famous Tambograndé District. San Lorenzo Valley has been capable to grow until 330,000 tons during the best mango seasons.

Across Peru, there are 30,000 hectares growing mango. This is less than the decime part of Rhode Island State. There are 14,000 mango growers in Peru. Some of them told me, they expected the peak of the season happened this October. There are no actual numbers yet.

The main mango markets are the US, Europe, and Japan recently. Tell me how much you pay for  just one mango. Meanwhile, here in Piura, we are already enjoying this tasty fruit. Learn more about: go to factortierra.blogspot.com Write mango in the query box.

 

The land continues shaking

Last Tuesday 25^th night, Peruvian time, a 4.7 magnitude quake broke out. The epicenter was  just 7 miles to the west of Sullana Downtown. The hypocenter was 35 miles depth. On Saturday 29^th, a 4.1 magnitude quake struck 15 miles to the west of Sullana Downtown. The hypocenter was 18 miles depth. Both ones were weaker  than the 6.1 magnitude we experienced last October 5^th.

But at Peruvian Southern,the land doesn’t stop to move. Íca Department, located just to the south of Lima Department, felt until 12 quakes along Friday 28^th. Peru’s Geophysical Institute explained the quakes here were caused by the Nazca Plate. It is  embedding under the South American Plate.

Quakes cannot be forecast. But, if you live in a seismic zone, you must be ready:

1. Join the prevention drills.
2. Have your emergency kit.
3. Check the buildings where you live, work, amuse,pray… everywhere, in the end.
4. Follow the official instructions.
5. And over all, trust in official sources. Remember that not all we have on the social media is true.
6. Learn to keep calm.
7. And if a quake breaks out right now, remember the Three Golden Mexican Rules: no running,  nno pushing, no screaming.
