*************

I often wondered why people were compelled to raise money for cancer research until cancer hit home. Now, I do everything I can to promote the fight against cancer. I especially like all the little pink items one can purchase to acknowledge their support. My favorite pink cancer fund raising product is the pink warm mouse. It's a heated computer mouse with the cancer ribbon logo. Its ergonomic shape makes it comfortable to hold, and the infrared heat it generates makes it a healthy addition to the computer work area.

Cancer is a prolific and horrific disease. There are over 200 different types of cancer -- not inlcuding the multitude of skin cancers, and although many types can be cured through surgery and chemotherapy, there are still many fatalities due to cancer. According to the American Cancer Society (ACS), over half a million people died of cancer in 2008.

When cancer hits home, sometimes there's a happy ending. Other times there's not. Fortunately, my story has positive results. After many years of marriage, my husband and I divorced. We hadn't talked to each other in a few years when one night I had a horrible dream something was wrong with him. The nightmare woke me up and brought tears to my eyes. The next day I called him. His number was disconnected. I got scared. I called his mother and asker her if he was OK. She told me he was fine and gave me his phone number to call and check for myself. So I did.

To make a long story short, we got back together. He returned home, and although he wasn't sick or feeling ill, I sent him to the doctor for an annual exam to make sure he was OK. That's how intense my dream had been about him not being well. Something in my subconscious told me he wasn't OK. The doctor did some tests and found cancer. We were shocked. A month later he had surgery. Following the surgery, he went through six months of chemotherapy. He's been cancer free for two years, and we are very grateful.

Fundraising for the ACS's fight against cancer is now part of our annual plan. There are a number of ways a person can get involved in the fight against cancer. The ASC's Relay for Life Cancer Walk is available in all major cities throughout the USA. There are many other volunteer programs where a person can become involved, too. The obvious pink products for cancer fund raisers are certainly one way to help.

The next time you see a pink cancer ribbon, think about this story. The pink products for cancer fund raising have become a universal language, and they make perfect gifts. Help spread the word about the fight against cancer becuase we won't give up until a cure for cancer is found!

How the Warm Mouse started..... It all begain several years ago by manufacturers in China and Japan. The first warm mice products didn't function very well, computers crashed and people complained. Leaving the rework to the inventive Asians, they designed a variety of heated computer mouse products for us to try and test! By 2007, the warm mouse product was almost near perfection, but it's still being reworked today. Improvements have been made in the on/off switch, cord length, heat strength and ergonomic shape. The warm computer mouse is evolving into a pretty slick little gadget.

Innovative ideas for heated gadgets hit the USA market through the manufacturers' websites and through Internet Shopping Giant, eBay. The Warm Mouse is patented in China and Japan, and there are a few USA resellers making the Warm Mouse, heated computer mouse, available to consumers through their websites. Guess what?

How You Can Avoid Repetitive Strain Injury

By Janice M. Horowitz

People who use their hands for a living should be on the alert for pain, numbness and other unusual sensations. These symptoms may signal the onset of RSI. If they persist, see a doctor who specializes in such injuries. Meanwhile, here are some tips for preventing RSI or, if it's too late for that, for keeping its symptoms in check:


-- Take frequent rest breaks and rotate from one task to another.

-- Maintain good posture without sitting too rigidly. Your body should be relaxed and your weight evenly distributed.

-- When typing, keep hands relaxed and fingers gently curved. Your hands should float easily above the keyboard.

-- Keep wrists in a neutral position -- not twisted or strained -- at the keyboard. The same applies to other activities such as holding a steering wheel, a tennis racket or a pencil.

-- Keep hands warm to promote circulation. Good blood flow supplies nutrients to the tissues and helps wash away toxins.

-- Exercise to improve circulation and overall conditioning.

-- Open heavy doors with your shoulder, not your hands.

-- Give your hands a break: invest in electric can openers and electric staplers, food processors, book stands and the like.

-- Don't wait for pain before taking a rest. Time your symptoms and break off work 10 minutes before they usually begin.

-- Never work in pain.

-- Avoid leaning on armrests or wrist pads. These should be used only when you're not typing.

-- Don't lean on elbows; nerves there can become irritated.

-- Try not to smoke, which reduces blood flow and makes you more vulnerable to RSI -- another reason to quit.

-- Don't overdo domestic chores after a hard day at the office.

-- If pain occurs, avoid leisure activities that can strain your hands, such as gardening, cooking, bowling or knitting. Hiking and jogging are preferable. Weight lifting, for RSI sufferers, is out of the question.

-- Don't wear wrist splints while typing. They can cause atrophy in some muscle groups.

Infrared heat is value added for computer users

Infrared heat is healing. The effects of the infrared heat rays penetrate deep into the muscle tissues removing toxins from the blood and relaxing tension in the muscles. ValueRays warming computer accessories are designed with a carbon fiber. Carbon fibers produce infrared heat.

If you suffer with cold hands, a cold mouse hand and need a mouse hand warmer, visit IGMproducts.com for more information.

Low tech warmth in a high tech geek society

I guess high tech is plugging a gadget into a USB port. Low tech is the use of no electricity. The Mouse Hand Warmer is definitely low tech. It uses no electricity to create a snuggly blanket for your mousing hand. If your hand gets cold, and believe me, many mouse hands get very cold, then the mouse blanket hand warmer is ideal.
