Please send us your comments, suggestions, and information about sites not listed here. E-mail form here. We would like to make this page a gathering place for all available information about skin cancer and related subjects. Your help will make it as complete as possible. What Causes Skin Cancer? Sunburn and Sunlight Very simply, sunburn and UV light can damage your skin, and this damage can lead to skin cancer. There are of course other determining factors, including your heredity and the environment you live in. However, both the total amount of sun received over the years, and overexposure resulting in sunburn can cause skin cancer. Most people receive 80% of their lifetime exposure to the sun by 18 years of age. The message to parents from this is to protect your children. Tanning is your skin's response to UV light. It is a protective reaction to prevent further injury to your skin from the sun. However, it does not prevent skin cancer. Remember, skin cancer is very slow to develop. The sunburn you receive this week may take 20 years or more to become skin cancer. Heredity If there is a history of skin cancer in your family, you are probably at a higher risk. People with fair skin, with a northern European heritage appear to be most susceptible. Environment The level of UV light today is higher than it was 50 or 100 years ago. This is due to a reduction of ozone in the earth's atmosphere (the Ozone Hole). Ozone serves as a filter to screen out and reduce the amount of UV light that we are exposed to. With less atmospheric ozone, a higher level of UV light reaches the earth's surface. Other influencing factors include elevation, latitude, and cloud cover. Ultra Violet light is stronger as elevation increases. The thinner atmosphere at higher altitudes cannot filter UV as effectively as it can at sea level. The rays of the sun are also strongest near the equator, as you might guess. But even in Antarctica, Chile, and New Zealand, the UV level is much higher than normal especially in the springtime due to the ozone hole in the southern hemisphere. One factor that actually reduces UV is cloud cover. Climates and micro-climates with regular cloud cover may have a 50% lower level of UV light. The actual amount is affected by the density of the clouds. September 1995 Measurements of Antarctic Ozone The latest HALOE data in the form of a 100 mb surface cross section of column ozone (DU) is available. Please consult the data interpretation page for more information about the sampling pattern of HALOE. United Nations World Meteorological Organization (WMO) Press Release Measurements of the Ozone Hole this year show it "was so far the most rapid depletion on record." An area the size of Europe received significantly higher levels of ultra violet exposure. Environmental Protection Agency - Ozone Depletion Page This web site contains information about the science of ozone depletion, regulations in the US designed to protect the ozone layer, flyers about the UV index, information for consumers, and other topics. What is Skin Cancer? (From the National Cancer Institute PDQ Statement) Skin cancer is a disease in which cancer (malignant) cells are found in the outer layers of your skin. Your skin protects your body against heat, light, infection, and injury. It also stores water, fat, and vitamin D. The skin has two main layers and several kinds of cells. The top layer of skin is called the epidermis. It contains three kinds of cells: flat, scaly cells on the surface called squamous cells; round cells called basal cells; and cells called melanocytes, which give your skin its color. BASAL CELL & SQUAMOUS CELL (From the National Cancer Institute PDQ Statement) There are several types of cancer that start in the skin. The most common are basal cell cancer and squamous cell cancer, which are covered in this PDQ patient information statement. Skin cancer is more common in people with light colored skin who have spent a lot of time in the sunlight. Skin cancer can occur anywhere on your body, but it is most common in places that have been exposed to more sunlight, such as your face, neck, hands, and arms. Skin cancer can look many different ways. The most common sign of skin cancer is a change on the skin, such as a growth or a sore that won't heal. Sometime there may be a small lump. This lump can be smooth, shiny and waxy looking, or it can be red or reddish brown. Skin cancer may also appear as a flat red spot that is rough or scaly. Not ail changes in your skin are cancer, but you should see your doctor if you notice changes in your skin. Full Text Available Here MELANOMA (From the National Cancer Institute PDQ Statement) Melanoma is a disease of the skin in which cancer (malignant) cells are found in the cells that color the skin (melanocytes). Melanoma usually occurs in adults, but it may occasionally be found in children and adolescents. Your skin protects your body against heat, light, infection, and injury. It is made up of two main layers: the epidermis (the top layer) and dermis (the inner layer). Melanocytes are found in the epidermis and they contain melanin, which gives the skin its color. Melanoma is sometimes called cutaneous melanoma or malignant melanoma. Melanoma is a more serious type of cancer than the more common skin cancers, basal cell cancer or squamous cell cancer, which begin in the basal or squamous cells of the epidermis. If you have basal cell or squamous cell cancer of the skin, refer to the patient information statement for skin cancer. Like most cancers, melanoma is best treated when it is found (diagnosed) early. Melanoma can spread (metastasize) quickly to other parts of the body through the lymph system or through the blood. (Lymph nodes are small, bean-shaped structures that are found throughout the body; they produce and store infection-fighting cells.) You should see your doctor if you have any of the following warning signs of melanoma: change in the size, shape, or color of a mole; oozing or bleeding from a mole; or a mole that feels itchy, hard, lumpy, swollen, or tender to the touch. Melanoma can also appear on the body as a new mole. Men most often get melanoma on the trunk (the area of the body between the shoulders and hips) or on the head or neck; women most often get melanoma on the arms and legs. If you have signs of skin cancer, your doctor will examine your skin carefully. If a mole or pigmented area doesn't look normal, your doctor will cut it out (called local excision) and look at it under the microscope to see if it contains cancer. This is usually done in a doctor's office. It is important that this biopsy is done correctly. Full Text Available Here How can I determine my personal risk? It is estimated that 1 out of 7 people in the United States will develop some form of this cancer during their lifetime. One serious sunburn can increase the risk by as much as 50%. The effect UV light has on your skin is dependent both upon the intensity and the duration of your exposure. How your skin reacts to the amount of exposure received is related to your genetic background. Even if you rarely sunburn however, sensitive areas such as your lips, nose, and palms of the hands should be protected. Details about determining your skin type and accompanying risk can be found at: THE EXPERIMENTAL ULTRAVIOLET INDEX FACTSHEET: EXPLAINING THE INDEX TO THE PUBLIC Are there precautions that will reduce my risk? The following six steps have been recommended by the American Academy of Dermatology and the Skin Cancer Foundation to help reduce the risk of sunburn and skin cancer. Minimize your exposure to the sun at midday and between the hours of 10:00AM and 3:00PM. Apply sunscreen with at least a SPF-15 or higher, to all areas of the body which are exposed to the sun. Reapply sunscreen every two hours, even on cloudy days. Reapply after swimming or perspiring. Wear clothing that covers your body and shades your face. (Hats should provide shade for both the face and back of the neck.) Avoid exposure to UV radiation from sunlamps or tanning parlors. Protect your children. Keep them from excessive sun exposure when the sun is strongest (10:00AM and 3:00PM), and apply sunscreen liberally and frequently to children 6 months of age and older. Do not use sunscreen on children under 6 months of age. Parents with children under 6 months of age should severely limit their children's sun exposure. The UV Index The UV Index provides a forecast of your likely UV exposure at noon. This forecast can help you determine what level SPF sunscreen will best protect your skin. The forecast is based on a scale of 1 (low) to 15 (high). Here is an explanation of how the UV Index works. Forecast for 30 U.S. Cities The United States Environmental Protection Agency recently began issuing a daily UV FORECAST for 30 metropolitan areas around the country. This rating is also broadcast by weather radio, and on local television weather programs. The Ultra Violet Sensometer You may also determine the UV level for your area and conditions with a measuring device such as the Ultra Violet Sensometer . The Sensometer is an inexpensive, credit card sized device that measures UV light. As with the UV Forecast, you may then determine the proper SPF sunscreen. The Sensometer can also be used to test the effectiveness of your sunscreen, and when it is time to apply more sunscreen.

Mark Twain declared Hawaii to be 'the loveliest fleet of islands that lies anchored in any ocean', and not even thirty years of mass tourism have managed to prove him wrong. Hawaii is a destination that can be either relaxing or filled with physical activity. Lounge by the pool of a world-class resort drinking the local fruit drinks, or explore the many wonders of all the Hawaiian Islands. Snorkel in an ocean of total clarity. Put your face to the breeze on a charter sail. If a physical vacation is what you seek, the surfing, diving, windsurfing and hiking doesn't get any better than in Hawaii.

Monthly average temperatures range from a high of 87.1 Fahrenheit and lows of 65.3 Fahrenheit. June through October is the hottest period, while rainfall is heaviest between December and March - neither extreme is worth worrying over. Hotel prices in Hawaii are lowest between April and mid-December. Weddings in Hawaii In Hawaii, romance is the very essence of life. From the sweet scents of night-blooming jasmine, to breath-taking sunsets, Hawaii is a perfect destination for your wedding and/or honeymoon vacation. Hawaii is world renown to be the number one destination for lovers. Weddings in Hawaii are frequently held outdoors on the beach, in a tropical garden, or even on a boat sailing off into the sunset. All the beaches in Hawaii are public, and both beaches and public parks are free to use for wedding ceremonies. However, don't expect to have a popular spot all to yourself. Most beaches and parks in Hawaii are not secluded and private. Hawaii has a wide range of musical styles and instruments. The slack key (a regional guitar style), the ukulele and steel guitar are popular musical instruments. The popular "Hawaiian Wedding Song" is usually sung at most wedding ceremonies. Traditional Hawaiian wedding attire consists of the bride wearing a long, white formal version of the muumuu called a 'holoku'. Instead of a veil, a woven garland of island flowers, 'haku lei', is worn around the head. The groom on the other hand, usually wears long sleeve white shirt and white pants a long red, or colored sash, is worn wrapped about his waist. A lei of maile and ilima flowers adorn his neck. Of course, chose whatever wedding style fits both your tastes. In Hawaii couples have gotten married wearing their swimsuits. Hawaii reveals romance, idyllic beaches and gorgeous landscapes. If the honeymoon wasn't invented here, it should have been. Hawaii and romance are practically synonymous. Wedding parties may qualify for a group travel discount. Imagine offering a romantic wedding for your guest, while they vacation in Mexico. Visit www.beverlyclarktravel.com for group specials to Mexico. Activities and Things to See in Hawaii Surfing is the king of sports, and Hawaii is deservedly renowned for its great waves. Beginners can learn the basics at Waikiki, and then watch the professionals on Oahu's North Shore. Maui has become a windsurfing mecca, with the top international windsurfers heading for Hookipa Beach. Diving is good year-round and there are plenty of underwater caves, canyons, lava tubes, vertical walls and sunken ships to explore. Lanai, the sunken volcanic crater of Molokini, and Oahu and Kauai's northern coasts are all great diving areas. The Big Island's Kona Coast offers some of the world's best deep-sea fishing for Pacific blue marlin, yellow fin tuna and spearfish. And for those who want to keep their feet on solid ground, hiking opportunities include trails in the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, Haleakala National Park and Hawaii's premier hike along Kauai's Na Pali Coast. The Hawaiian Islands Oahu Places worth visiting on Oahu: Waikiki Beach Pearl Harbor North shore Beaches Hanauma Bay Nuuanu Pali Lookout Oahu, nicknamed 'The Gathering Place', is the most populous, most developed and most well known of the Hawaiian Islands. Oahu throbs with energy and elegance. The names and images most commonly conjured up by the mention of Hawaii are all here: Honolulu, Waikiki, Pearl Harbor, Pipeline and Sunset Beach. The state capital, Honolulu, is the major exit/entry point for travelers. For a more back to nature approach, visit the lush windward side. Eons of wind and weather erosion have carved these ranges' sculptured, jagged peaks, deep valleys, sheer green cliffs, and dynamic vistas. At the base of these mountains more than 50 beach parks lie draped like a beautiful lei, each known for a different activity, be it snorkeling, surfing, swimming, or sunbathing. Waikiki continues to serve as home base for endless possibilities for day trips full of cultural and scenic eco-adventures. Visitors can stroll along a new and improved Kuhio Beach and find wider beach expanses and extensive services, and meander along the historic Waikiki walking trail. With Waikiki leading the way, Oahu maintains its status as an exciting destination, with more things to see, more places to eat, and more things to do than on all the other Hawaiian Islands combined. Looking For the Best Hawaii Honeymoon Location or Wedding Destination? To find your Romantic Honeymoon Getaway on Oahu, Hawaii, we recommend: Aston Waikiki Beach Hotel Aston Waikiki Beach Tower Big Island (Hawaii) The island of Hawaii, commonly called the Big Island, is nearly twice the size of all the other Hawaiian Islands combined. Geographically it's the most diverse island of the archipelago, with deserts, rainforests, the world's most active volcano, and surprisingly, snow-capped mountains. Mauna Kea, which measures 32,000 ft beneath the ocean's surface to its 13,796-ft peak, is the world's tallest mountain. The mountains create a huge barrier that blocks the north-easterly trade winds and makes the leeward, western side of the island the driest region in the archipelago. This coast, known as the Kona-Kohala Coast, has the best beaches and water conditions. The windward, eastern coast, with the island's major city, Hilo, is predominantly rugged, with pounding surf, plenty of rain, tropical rainforests, deep ravines and majestic waterfalls. So much rain falls near Hilo, the island's major city, that a botanical garden at Onomea Bay provides umbrellas to enter its tropical jungle. Kona, Waikoloa and Hilo are the main centers for accommodation and restaurants. Worth visiting on the Big Island: Hawaii Volcanoes National Park Waipio Valley Mauna Kea Mauna Loa Hapuna Beach Kona Hilo Puuhonua O Honaunau National Park Looking For the Best Hawaii Honeymoon Location or Wedding Destination? To find your Romantic Honeymoon Getaway on the Big Island, Hawaii, we recommend: Aston Waikoloa Colony Villas Fairmont Orchid Kauai If you're looking for lush scenery, Kauai, known as 'The Garden Island', is a great choice. Kauai's central volcanic peak, Mt Waialeale, is allegedly the wettest place on earth. Many movies were filmed on Kauai, such as South Pacific, Raiders of the Lost Ark and Jurassic Park. Most of the island's interior is mountainous forest reserve, which offers great hiking; the southern and western coasts are dry, sunny and fringed with beautiful beaches. Kauai's capital is Lihu'e, the island's commercial center. Its collection of businesses -- a pair of banks, a library, a school, a museum, some family-run restaurants, and hotels -- is small enough to keep the pace unhurried. North of Lihu'e the climate turns cooler and wetter, and everything sparkles green. In Wailua and Kapa'a, resort complexes huddle along a picturesque shoreline called the Royal Coconut Coast for its abundance of palms. As you head farther north to Anahola, Kilauea, Princeville, and Hanalei, vines and flowers flourish. On the south coast the sunny beaches and clear skies around Po'ipu have spawned a crop of condos and hotels. The area has also come into its own as a golf destination, and several fine restaurants have found a home here as well. Accommodation and eateries can be found in the small towns of Lihue, Kapaa, Princeville and Poipu. Worth visiting on Kauai: Na Pali Coast Waimea Canyon - the 'Grand Canyon of the Pacific' Lumahai Beach Polihale Beach Wailua River Looking For the Best Hawaii Honeymoon Location or Wedding Destination? To find your Romantic Honeymoon Getaway on Kauai, Hawaii, we recommend: Aston at Poipu Kai Aston Islander on the Beach Waimea Plantation Cottages Maui Maui is known as 'The Valley Island'. The island is comprised of two large extinct volcanoes (Haleakala and Puu Kukui) divided by a central valley. It's the second-largest of the Hawaiian Islands and the most developed of the Neighbor Islands. It's renowned for its abundant supply of beautiful, romantic beaches and some of the world's best windsurfing and surfing spots. The uplands of Maui are comprised of eucalyptus groves and cattle ranches. Check out the historical town of Makawao, with its fine restaurants and cowboy flavor buildings. The east coast of Maui is where you'll find the lush, tropical rainforests. Looking for nightlife on your honeymoon vacation? Then visit Lahaina and Kaanapali Beach. For a more relaxing atmosphere take a slow, dramatic rain-forest drive to the sleepy town of Hana. Worth visiting on Maui: Haleakala Crater Iao Needle Lahaina Kaanapali Beach Hana Highway Polipoli Spring State Recreation Area Looking For the Best Hawaii Honeymoon Location or Wedding Destination? To find your Romantic Honeymoon Getaway on Maui, Hawaii, we recommend: Adventure in Paradise Aston Kaanapali Shores Fairmont Kea Lani Maui Maui Kaanapali Villas The Whaler on Kaanapali Beach Lanai Lanai, known as the 'Pineapple Island', is a sleepy, pineapple-plantation island, which 98% of the island is owned by Dole Corporation. Lanai's old pineapple fields have been transformed into two exquisite resorts-one in the mountains and one by the sea. Lanai is home to many natural wonders. To the northwest lies the Garden of the Gods, where rocks and boulders are scattered across a crimson landscape. Adjacent is a trail leading through the Kanepu'u Preserve, a dryland forest with some 48 native species, including the endangered Hawaiian gardenia. On the southern tip is Hulopo'e Bay, a marine conservation area prized by divers and snorkelers for its vivid tropical reef fish and crystal clear waters. Experience hiking or driving to the summit of Lana'ihale, a 3,370-ft-high windswept perch in the eastern reaches, you'll find a splendid view of nearly every Hawaiian island. Worth visiting on Lanai: Hulopo'e Beach Garden of the Gods Lanai City Lanaihale Shipwreck Beach or Kai Olohia Looking For the Best Hawaii Honeymoon Location or Wedding Destination? To find your Romantic Getaway on the Lanai, Hawaii, click here. Molokai Molokai is often called "The Friendly Island", because of the aloha spirit that flourishes there. Molokai is one of the least visited of all the Hawaiian Islands...which makes it so special. Molokai is a quiet, slow-paced retreat that epitomizes the South Seas paradise that first sparked tourist interest. With a population of roughly 7,000 (compared to Oahu's nearly 1 million), it has the highest percentage of residents with Hawaiian blood - roughly 50%. The island opens its heart to you along its shimmering reef and spectacular sea cliffs.
