Smoking is the leading cause of lung cancer. The more cigarettes you smoke each day and the earlier you start smoking, the greater the risk of lung cancer. There is no evidence that smoking low-tar with a reduced risk of lung cancer.
2. Stomach cancer (740 000 deaths)
Some types of cancer known to affect the stomach. Adenocarcinoma is the most common type of cancer to the stomach. Development of cancer is generally found in the lining of the stomach. Over time, the presence of cancer is starting to fade. Experts think this decline may be triggered due to lifestyle changes such as reducing salt intake and smoking.
3. Liver cancer (700,000 deaths)
In most cases, the cause of liver cancer caused by cirrhosis, which is the end result of chronic liver damage caused by chronic liver disease. Alcohol abuse is the most common cause of cirrhosis of the liver.
4. Colorectal cancer (610 000 deaths)
Colorectal cancer can begin to grow from the large intestine (colon) or rectum (end of colon). Initially, nearly all colorectal cancers are benign (polyps), but over time develop into cancer. This cancer is a type of cancer the world's third largest in terms of number of sufferers. Colorectal cancer is also the number two cause of death of two worlds, in which the age factor influences.
5. Breast cancer (460 000 deaths)

Hidradenitis Suppurativa
Hidradenitis suppurativa is a chronic skin inflammation characterized by the presence of blackheads and one or more red, tender bumps (lesions). Lesions are often enlarged, open and ooze pus. Scarring can occur as a result after several recurrences.
This condition is often regarded as a severe form of acne. Hidradenitis suppurativa occurs deep within the skin around the oil glands (sebaceous) and hair follicles. Body parts affected are usually the groin and armpits, is also the primary location of the apocrine sweat glands.
Hidradenitis suppurativa tends to start to occur after puberty, persist for years and worsen over time. Early diagnosis and treatment of Hidradenitis suppurativa can help manage symptoms and prevent the development of new lesions.
Hidradenitis suppurativa occurs when oil glands (sebaceous) glands and hair follicles not blocked by fluids, dead skin cells and other materials that are removed from around the apocrine sweat glands. When substances are mixed with oil from the sebaceous glands, it can be trapped and pushed into the surrounding tissue.
Bacteria can then trigger infection and inflammation. It is unknown why there is a blockage, but a number of factors including hormones, genetics, smoking and being overweight - all can play a role. Sometimes Hidradenitis suppurativa occurs with other diseases, such as Crohn's disease or Graves' disease.

Solar Storm Effects
Solar Storm is going on recently begun releasing bursts of higher wave radiation. Wave radiation, says could disrupt communications satellites that orbit around the Earth.
Proclaimed the Sydney Morning Herald, Wednesday (25/01/2012), Doug Biesecker, physicist at the U.S. Space Weather Prediction Center believes that solar radiation storm is in progress now have the possibility to influence the high frequency communications in polar regions. While in Australia, the impact is expected to be lighter.
"This could pose some problems on some shortwave radio frequencies. Some of the electricity network operators have been warned and they can handle it," explains Dave Neudegg, Manager of Australian Ionospheric Prediction Service.
Regarding the effects of solar storms to Indonesia, Thomas Djamaluddin, professor of astronomy at LAPAN said, "The impact on Indonesia was assessed with data LAPAN observer stations." However, until recently Thomas reveals, "There has been no report."
In his blog, Thomas explained that the storm the sun is fairly strong and explosive flare-scale form of the M8-9. Solar storms that occurred on January 23, 2012 at 03:59 UT (10:59 GMT). however, a fairly strong flares is the first time since May 2005.
Category M is actually classified as middle class, but because of approaching extreme class (class X), then the impact of solar storms will be strong enough that leads to the earth. X-rays are recorded on the GOES satellite showed a sharp increase until the class M8-9.
The explosion happened as well flares followed by a CME (Coronal Mass Ejection), burst mass of the solar corona, mainly protons with high speed, 1400 km / sec. CME was detected on the SOHO spacecraft monitors the position of the sun between the earth-sun is 1.5 million km from Earth (about 4 times the Earth-moon distance). Charged particles from the sun it looks like the snow that leads toward the earth.
Chance of energetic particles that reach the earth around January 24 night time Indonesia. A fairly strong solar storm like this could potentially interfere with satellite operations, such as satellite communications. If that happens and can not be addressed by satellite operators, the possibility of interference with the use of mobile phones, TV broadcasting, data communications, banking and other users.
But usually the satellite operators had anticipated. Another effect is a disruption in the ionosphere that would disrupt radio communication HF / shortwave commonly used by remote communication, including by foreign radio broadcasts such as BBC, VOA, or ABC. GPS satellite-based navigation as well as the possibility of impaired accuracy.
