Warm Bath Ultrasound (WBU) is a new technology designed to produce 3D breast images in less than 10 minutes. It’s based on placing the breast in a warm water bath surrounded by multiple ultrasound transducers, allowing near instantaneous tomographic imaging of the tissue.  Although limited as a screening tool, ultrasound has proven...

Today, About the Girl opens its first showroom. To celebrate, I’ve asked Amy along to answer some questions, and there’s a very special offer for Bah! readers too. Read on! SB: Hello, Amy, and welcome to Bah! to cancer. Can you tell us a little bit about how About The Girl came about? AB: I was diagnosed with breast cancer in September 2007, and was treated with a lumpectomy followed by a mastectomy and as my lymph nodes were affected these were also removed. I then underwent chemotherapy and radiotherapy. I finished my treatment feeling like I had been hit by a ten ton truck and started the long process of try...

Or, at least, that was what I took away from it. To be honest, it was a little hard to tell. I was going to let it drop, but by coincidence I was at the Naval Academy today, giving a guest lecture to two different classes, and the experience has inspired me to pick apart examine Helprin's article. I do so because I fundamentally agree with Helprin that we should have a strong navy. I say this because I believe that the Founders were correct to privilege the Navy over the Army (recall that the Constitution calls for maintaining a navy, but raising an Army only as required). I also have several parochial reasons for favoring the Navy over the other serv...

Unfortunately, dealing with this problem is downright annoying, and the products you use can dry your skin out even more. But just like other skin problems, the products you use on a daily basis can heal your dry skin. Keeping that in mind, here are some beauty secrets for how you can effectively use skin care products to add moisture. Tip #1 – Shower Etiquette Showing in excessively-hot water can cause your skin to become irritated, stripped of oils and dry, so keep your water cooler to avoid irritation. Also, don’t let your fingers become pruned while soaking in the bath tub; instead, only soak for 15 minutes or less. Not only will you see an improvement in your skin’s dryne...

I try to be environmentally-conscious whenever and however I can. I take a lot of public transportation. I politely refuse receipts. I recycle. I set the bedroom A/C to “energy-saver.” I fall for the expensive, eco-friendly beauty and cleaning products. I use those ugly, energy-efficient light bulbs. I give stuff away instead of tossing it. I grow an herb and vegetable garden during the summer. I buy Energy-Star appliances. I severely limit pre-packaged foods and take-out meals. (Except lunches in the office. I am a terrible person.) I do all these things with you in mind. I hardly ever even do my precious favorite thing anymore: Take a bath. I’m a friggin’ saint.

Well, we order you to take some time to try out some of our tools for stress relief.

That’s where Lily Organic comes in. With their home spa kit, you can give yourself a mini-break from your daily annoyances. The kit comes with literally everything you might need for a 2 hour spa session: Moisturizers, tea, a candle, lotions, incense — the works.

Bamboo is the fastest growing wood-ish plant in the world, and most of it is grown organically without using fertilizers or irrigation. This all sounds very eco-friendly, until it comes time to actually make the bamboo into fabric. Most bamboo fabrics are basically rayon. The process most widely used to create bamboo fabric (and rayon) is called viscose, which involves taking the fiber (in this case, bamboo), and dissolving it in a strong solvent to make a thick, gummy solution. Then, that’s shoved through a spinneret and into a quenching solution that solidifies the goop into a fiber. Unfortunately, the solvent used in this process is a toxic chemical ca...

The Greenpeace Guide to Greener Electronics singles out companies, like Nokia, that have stopped using PVC in the production of their goods, but it’s not only electronics producers that are moving away from the deadly plastic. Microsoft, Honda, Walmart, Target and Nike have all started shifting production away from PVC.
