After years of unsuccessful
turnaround attempts. Yahoo
may have now bungled its
$4 8 billion deal to sell its
struggling online operations
to Verizon Communications.
Analysts believe Verizon
is reassessing the purchase
price after Yahoo disclosed
that computer hackers
pulled off the internet s
biggest heist of personal
information by breaking into Yahoo's data centers
two years ago The stolen data included names,
emails, passwords, phone numbers and birthdates
from at least 500 million of Yahoo’s user accounts
Verizon so far has only said it intends to act in its
best interest

Lose Weight
Body weight plays
role in several types of
cancer, including breast
cancer. In fact, the World
Cancer Research I und es-
timates one in five cancer
deaths is related to ex-
cess body weight. Being
overweight doesn’t seem
to affect breast cancer in
premenopausal women,
but it has been linked to
Protection Strategy:
Get Your Colonoscopy
Most colorectal can-
cers start out as polyps, or
small growths, inside the
colon. During a colonos-
copy, a screening test for
colon cancer, doctors can
actually remove polyps be-
fore they turn cancerous.
Today’s five-year colon
cancer survival rate is 90
percent, and that’s largely
because of early detection.
If you're 50 or older, con-
sult with your doctor about
getting screened.
Other important steps to
take
Falk to your doctor
about starting a low-dose
aspirin regimen, which has
been found to reduce the
risk of colon cancer by up
to 40 percent, according
to the ACS. Limit alcohol
use and avoid smoking. To
schedule an appointment
for a cancer screening, call
281-420-8557.

Protection Strategy:
Don’t Smoke
Almost everyone has
heard a story of someone
who has had lung cancer
and never smoked. But the
reality is 90 percent of lung
cancers can be attributed to
smoking, according to the
( enters for Disease Con-
trol and Prevention. Smok-
ers and former smokers are
15 to 30 times more like-
ly to develop lung cancer
than nonsmokers. “But it’s
really never too late to cut
your risk," (ioswitz said.
Not smoking isn’t al-
ways enough. Secondhand

Yahoo’s insecure deal
The deal seems unlikely
to completely unravel, even
though news of the breach
could drive away hordes of
alienated Yahoo users
That’s because Verizon also
prizes Yahoo's digital ad
technology, and the value of
those tools shouldn't be
affected
At $4 8 billion, the
Verizon sale would yield
about S5 per Yahoo share Yahoo’s investments in
two Asian Internet companies, Alibaba Group and
Yahoo Japan, are worth far more Those stakes,
which aren’t part of the Verizon deal, currently are
worth a combined $30 billion, or $31 50 per share,

Zika illnesses are
mild in US teens,
young children
NI.W YORK (Al>) A
first look at U.S. teens and
young children who were
infected with Zika suggests
the virus typically causes at
worst only a mild illness.
Zika infection during
pregnancy can cause severe
brain-related birth defects.
But the report seems to con-
firm health officials’ belief
that infections after birth
■n children are similar to
in lections in adults most
people don’t feel sick, and
some develop only mild
symptoms like fever, rash,
joint pain and red eyes.
Texas doctors have done the first womb transplants
using live donors in the United States.
l our women who had been born without a uterus
received one in operations last month at Baylor Uni-
versity Medical Center at Dallas. Three of the wombs
have had to be removed because of poor blood flow.
But the hospital said in a statement Wednesday that the
fourth recipient still has hers and is showing no signs
of rejection.
The hospital would not identify any of the donors or
recipients.
I here have been al least 16 previous uterus trans-
plants worldwide, including one in ( leveland from
a deceased donor that had to be removed because of
complications. Two doctors from the University of Go-
thenburg m Sweden, which has done the most of these
operations, were in Dallas to assist with the four trans-
plants there.
At least five births have resulted from the womb
transplants in Sweden. Dallas doctors are hopeful the
patient who still has her transplanted womb will be-
come the first successful case in the U.S. She is part
of a clinical trial that Baylor announced in January that
aims to enroll IO women born without a uterus or with
a faulty one.
Womb donors can be dead or alive, and the Baylor
study aims to use some of both. I he first four cases
involved “altruistic" donors unrelated and unknown
to the recipients, a hospital spokesman said.
