Sen. Moran
Will Visit
Coldwater
U.S. Senator Jerry Moran (R-
Kan.) has announced that he will
be in Coldwater as part of his
Kansas Listening Tour on
Thursday, July 21.
That day he will be here for
an hour -- from 1:30-2:30 p.m.,
on a walking tour of Coldwater's
Main Street.
Area residents are encour-
aged to attend and share feed-
back with Sen. Moran on the
critical issues facing Kansas and
the nation. The issues Sen.
Moran focuses on and the work
he does in Washington, D.C., are
largely based on the conversa-
tions he has with Kansans dur-
ing these town hall meetings.
Throughout his time in Con-
gress, Sen. Moran has made it a
priority to stay connected to the
people he represents despite a
distance of more than 1,000 miles
between Capitol Hill and Kansas.
Since his election to the U.S.
Senate, Sen. Moran has contin-
ued to hold town halls in each of
Kansas' 105 counties. Then-
Congressman Moran traveled to
each of the 69 counties during
his annual "Big First Listening
Tour."

vice ad circulating by the Ameri-
can Academy of Dermatology
that lists five ways to die on a
golf course.
The five ways include hit by
a golf ball, run over by a golf cart,
whacked by a golf club, struck
by lightning, and forgot your hat.
While none of these possi-
bilities is pleasant to contem-
plate, the threat of skin cancer is
real and should be considered
carefully. This is especially true
of farmers, ranchers, and con-
struction workers who are in the
sun much of the time.
Every year one million new
cases of skin cancer are detected,
according to the American
Academy of Dermatology. One
out of five people in this coun-
try develops skin cancer during
his/her lifetime.
All across America, folks are
gearing up for vacations with
their families -- many of these
trips include stops at the beach,
national parks, state lakes, or
outdoor amusement parks. Many
others work for long hours in the
sun during the summer months
-- farmers, ranchers, construc-
tion workers, amusement park at-
tendants, etc.
If you spend several hours in
the sun, protect yourself. Avoid
the midday sun if at all possible.
Cover up. Always wear a hat.
Work in the shade whenever
possible. And don't forget to
wear sunscreen.
Melanoma is the deadliest
form of skin cancer. One person
dies every hour from this disease
in the United States, according
to the American Academy of
Dermatology.
Fortunately, melanoma can
be cured if it's caught early
enough. Dermatologists advise
us to examine our skin regularly.
If you find a blemish larger than
a pencil eraser, multi-colored,
asymmetrical or irregular at the
edges, you may have melanoma
and should see a dermatologist.
While we should protect our-
selves from potential skin can-
Overexposure to sunlight
during childhood will affect chil-
dren for the rest of their lives.
Studies show that damage from
the sun to a child's skin can ac-
tually increase the odds that he/
she will develop skin cancer as
an adult.
American Academy of Der-
matology estimates indicate 80
per cent of a person's total life-
time sun exposure occurs in the
first 18 years.
Protect your children. Cover
them up. Teach them to wear
long-sleeved cotton shirts that
breathe. Make sure they wear
head protection at all times.
Make wearing sunscreen part of
the ritual for gearing up for the
sun.
While skin cancer can kill you,
it's much more likely to disfig-
ure you. Each year, thousands
of Americans lose chunks of their
skin to this disease, according
to the American Academy of
Dermatology. Some people lose
their nose. Others may lose their
ears, while others may escape
with only the loss of an eyebrow.
Examine your skin regularly,
at least once a week. Look for
warning signs. If you find any-
thing bleeding, crusting or not
healing, see your dermatologist
immediately.
Remember, you can enjoy the
sun and spend time outside, and
don't forget these common-
sense suggestions: have fun,
and like everything else in life
-- enjoy the sun in moderation.
