Early detection of pancreatic cancer may have saved my brother, says campaigner
A pancreatic cancer campaigner has said early detection of the disease could have saved her brother's life, as she brought her 200,000-name petition to the Scottish Parliament. Isla Gear's brother Tam Barker died on Boxing Day last year, following months of symptoms which were not identified as being caused by cancer. Mr Barker, a cab driver from Fife, had been to the doctor's surgery six times and A&E three times throughout the year but the cancer was not spotted until November. One of his final wishes was for a campaign to help others in his situation, and his sister decided to take up the cause. On Thursday, she and Tam's son Max, 12, handed over copies of her letter to MSPs at Holyrood. It calls for regular monitoring of those at highest risk of pancreatic cancer and the development of new tests for early detection. Ms Gear, from Leven in Fife, told the PA news agency a simple test in a GP's surgery could have 'given him a longer chance, if not saved his life'. She said: 'From this, we can save someone's life in honour of what Tam wanted. 'Tam thought he would beat the statistic and he was very hopeful… 'He said 'If anything comes from this, the one thing I want is to stop it from happening to other families'. 'I don't know if he knew he was passing then, or if he thought he was going to be here to fight. 'But certainly I'll do the fighting for him.' A petition she set up has secured more than 200,000 signatures and Ms Gear has joined the 'unite, diagnose, save lives' campaign from the charity Pancreatic Cancer UK. The petition is thought to be the largest related to a disease in the UK.

Based on end-use industries, the open gear lubricants market is segmented into mining, construction, cement, power generation, oil & gas, marine, and other end-use industries. The open gear lubricants market was largely held by the mining industry as the end-user sector since mining is highly reliant on the operation of large and high-load machinery such as draglines, shovels, ball mills, sag mills, and kilns. Mining is an industry with extreme conditions such as high pressure, high temperature, dust, and dampness, thereby requiring special formulations of open-gear lubricants to enhance the performance of equipment, decrease the turnaround time, and prolong its working life.

Kaleb Cooper makes U-turn on nice comment about Jeremy Clarkson as new co-star revealed
Kaleb Cooper makes U-turn on nice comment about Jeremy Clarkson as new co-star revealed Clarkson's Farm star Kaleb Cooper couldn't resist taking a swipe at his co-star Jeremy Clarkson, as he discussed the ups and downs of his farming journey so far Kaleb Cooper shared his true thoughts on Jeremy Clarkson's farming efforts Clarkson's Farm star Kaleb Cooper hasn't shied away from sharing his honest thoughts on Jeremy Clarkson's farming efforts so far. The duo have spent five years together on the popular show, which documents Jeremy getting to grips with duties on his Diddly Squat Farm. Throughout the series, Jeremy, 65, and Kaleb have frequently engaged in light-hearted bickering while navigating the challenges of farm life and managing livestock. While reflecting on the last few years of their partnership with Heart Radio presenters Amanda Holden and Jamie Theakston, the 26-year-old was asked to rate Jeremy's farming skills out of 10. He remarked: "I'd say [with] 10 being the highest, probably a six. "When he first started, he was like a 0.4 and then now... I'd be unfair to say that he's not good at his job anymore, do you know what I mean?". Article continues below Kaleb went on to discuss Jeremy's strengths and weaknesses, adding: "For example, he's really good with the pigs, he still can't put a tractor on a cultivator for example or any of that, but at the same time, you know, he's getting there slowly." Clarkson's Farm (2021) Jeremy Clarkson and Kaleb Cooper in Clarkson's Farm (2021) Despite acknowledging Jeremy's progress, Kaleb made a U-turn on his kind words and confessed he wouldn't hire him. When asked if he would employ the ex-Top Gear presenter if he were in charge of a farm, he bluntly responded: "No." Fans of Clarkson's Farm will see Jeremy facing farming duties alone at the start of the new series, while Kaleb and his partner Lisa Hogan fulfil other work commitments. Speaking to the camera, he said while he is pleased for Kaleb's success on tour, he felt "a little bit [left] in the lurch," amongst the ongoing farm hurdles. After realising the struggle, he employs a new farm hand, 28-year-old Harriet Cowan. Addressing being replaced, Kaleb told the presenters: "I went away on tour as you guys know, and as I went on tour I thought he'd be ok basically on his own, but it turns out, as I rated him a six, maybe it's actually rated a three because he wasn't ok on his own. "So, of course he went out there and got Harriet and Harriet jumped on board and saved the day basically, and stepped in while I was away." Article continues below Quizzed further on rumours about him leaving the show, Kaleb replied: "No, I never left, no." The first four episodes of the new Clarkson's Farm series has launched today on Prime Video. Episode five to six will be available from May 30, with the final two episodes available to stream from June 6.
