Jobs delayed surgery for his pancreatic cancer until it was too late to
contain it, according to the authorized biography of the co-founder of

spread to other organs. The new biography draws from dozens of
interviews with Jobs by author Walter Issacson, with the last one
completed just before Jobs died. Source Link

used cell phones and those who did not. Earlier this year, the World
Health Organization said cellphone use should be classified as "possibly
carcinogenic.” Source Link

get the top rating, but there’s little brotherly love behind the wheel
in Philadelphia, where drivers are 60% more likely to have an accident.
