This article offers tips for eating a plant-based, whole food diet for a well-rounded eating plan to help reduce your risk of breast cancer recurrence. The Power of Plants Most cancer treatment experts recommend a plant-based diet. Filling your plate with plants means you’ll be getting a diet that is high in fiber, vitamins, and minerals. These foods also offer plant-based compounds such as polyphenols (micronutrients that naturally occur), which may help prevent and treat cancer through direct effects on cellular processes, and antioxidants, which can reduce oxidative-stress damage to cells....

Yet there are a few brave souls who have come out to defend Carroll’s decision, saying that despite conventional wisdom, Carroll’s call made statistical sense.

Football hasn’t been adversely affected by coronavirus, yet, because its season ended before the pandemic. Football season also doesn’t officially start until late August, so there are a few months remaining. If America wants football this fall, Americans will need to do their part in helping stop the spread of the virus that has now infected nearly 2 million people worldwide. There have been more than 125,000 deaths around the globe, with about 25,000 of those in the United States....

Why did it take so long? The negotiations reflect a careful approach to the escrow arrangement by the Park Service, which is concerned about safeguarding Yosemite’s future. The Park Service and Curry have come under attack from environmentalists, who say the park has become overcommercialized. They cite crowds and a contract that allows Curry to give just 3/4 of 1 percent of revenues to the park. After the concession expires in 1993, the Park Service hopes to enact strict guidelines that may require Curry’s new owner to make major improvements and funnel more revenues to the park....

Christie learned about aromatherapy, biofeedback and acupressure. She also received training in guided imagery, a relaxation technique in which patients lie in bed with their eyes closed and imagine they are visiting a “happy place” of their choosing. “You use your five senses,” explains Christie. “First you have to imagine yourself getting there. Some people go in a car, or like a cloud or something. And then when you get there you look at the place and take in everything, and you hear what kind of sounds you’d hear, and what you’d touch and taste and smell....

The most popular treatment for OCD is Prozac or a similar drug. Some 30 percent of OCD patients do not respond well to medication, though, and if a patient stops the pills the symptoms return. But last week, Schwartz and four UCLA colleagues reported in Archives of General Psychiatry that the mind can be at least as powerful as medicine when it comes to remodeling the brain. Behavioral modification (changing the way patients act) and cognitive therapy (changing how they think) can alter the biology of their brains....

Investors weren’t enthused about the airline’s curbed ambitions. The Forest Hills, N.Y.-based company’s shares tumbled 2.0%, or 10 cents, to $4.31. JetBlue’s stock has been charting a steady downward trajectory for some time now; the company has fallen 60.2% in the past 12 months. The Airbus A320 jets, originally scheduled for delivery between 2009 through 2011, will now be delivered in 2014 and 2015. The delay will help JetBlue’s cash situation by pushing back the sizable investment and by avoiding the expenses associated with maintaining the new planes....

The automaker still expects to sell 50,000 Crown Vics to the government this year, mostly for use in law enforcement. But the Police Interceptor model has been losing market share in the last few years to the Chevy Impala and Dodge Charger, whose 340-horsepower Hemi engine gives it a top speed of 150mph, making it popular with highway patrol officers. The Impala is also faster than the Crown Vic—which redlines at 130mph—and troopers in Northern states prefer its front-wheel drive in the winter....

In a new commercial for Nissan’s Heisman House, the former Gators quarterback is seen dreaming of a music career, complete with a blinged-out Gator Nissan Armada, a pleather alligator-skinned vest and plenty of Gator chomps.

Karl Münter has also disputed the fact that six million Jews died during the Holocaust, according to Agence France Presse. In 1944, members of the French resistance derailed a train carrying 50 Nazi soldiers near Lille, France. A few goods cars came off the tracks but no one was hurt. At the time Münter was 21 years old and part of the Hitlerjugend, or “Hitler Youth,” SS division. In revenge, on April 1 that year, Münter’s battalion went to the nearby village of Ascq....

Lewis is an ideal candidate for a head coaching job interview: decades in the coaching business, Super Bowl-level success as a linebackers coach and defensive coordinator, four division championships as an NFL head coach.

Considering that Bryant has remained unsigned for about three-and-a-half of the last four seasons, many believe his career is over.

Speaking on MSNBC on Monday, Schmidt said the decision was a signal to America’s adversaries that now was the time to take advantage of an ineffective U.S. administration unwilling to uphold the post-World War Two “liberal order.” “We’re in trouble,” Schmidt told host Nicole Wallace, referring to America’s withdrawal from northeastern Syria. “You see America in retreat, literally, with those trucks driving out of hard-won territory, precipitously with no care to how the withdrawal is done....
