   Cancer Research UK has launched an online chat forum for cancer patients to swap stories or share experiences on how to cope with such a disastrous disease.

   But Cancer Chat is a forum with a difference:it has an information safety net.

   This means that a Cancer Research UK team will keep a watching brief to ensure that patients are not subjected to rogue “cancer cures’’ or scientifically unreasonable information.

   Anyone can have access to the messages posted on Cancer Chat but if people wish to post a message they will need to register.

   And Rebekah Gibbs,a cancer patient and star e f TV’S Casualty has voiced her support for the new project.“I think Cancer Chat is a brilliant idea,’’she said .“I have written a public diary about what I went through with breast cancer and I have had such a heart-warming response from other people going through the same thing.

   “The idea of a Cancer Chat forum means you can share information about treatment and  side effects and you can really open up about your feelings online in a way that can be difficult when talking to close friends and family. And with Cancer Research UK.monitoring the forum people can be guaranteed the quality of information being exchanged。”

   Cancer Chat will also encourage。its users to check out any cancer questions on its  CancerHelp UK website which is specially designed to give patients and their families 6,000  pages of up-to-date information that is easy to understand and explains a wide range of treatments for different types of cancer and give details of clinical trials.There is also a UK database of cancer clinical trials,.

   The award-winning website attracts around lone million visitors a month and Cancer Research UK hopes that some of these visitors will also want to post comments on the Cancer Chat forum.

   For those who do not have access to computers and have questions about cancer,,the charity's team of cancer information nurses are available during office hours to talk over patients’ concerns on the phone.

Beijing-Danny Boyle was in Beijing last week to promote Slumdog Millionaire, the Oscar-winning movie that is currently showing in over 2,000 cinemas across the country.

   “It’s a huge honor as not many films get permission,” Boyle said. Only 20 major foreign films are released on the mainland every year, and Slumdog has received the fastest China premiere (首映) of any Oscar-winning film.

Boyle was so impressed by his trip to China that he hadn’t ruled out a return to the country one day to shoot a film.

   “When I arrived, we went straight to Tian’anmen Square and it was a wonderful day,” he said. “ When you have city that is full of people and stories like Mumbai, Beijing or Shanghai, it’s just so much excitement and potential for a filmmaker. It’s like a dream come true.”

   In fact he was so enamored of China that he planned to be back in the country in June to judge the Shanghai International Film Festival, Tang Lijun, the festival’s general manager, saw Boyle’s experience in crossing cultures as the ideal quality for a person to be president.

   “Slumdog Millionaire is a perfect example for the cultural exchange between the East and Western worlds,’’Tang said.

   Slumdog is still making waves across the international film community.The movie totaled over $200 million worldwide.One writer in the Wall Street Journal described the as,‘'the world’s first globalized masterpiece.’’

   Boyle is keen to focus on how globalization is finally having an effect on cinema and in future potential filmmakers will have to consider the whole world, and not jut their country.

“When I arrived in India I was expecting everyone to be very aware of Britain because the history, but now they are talking about China,Brazil,Indonesia,-the new economics,” Boyle noted.“They aren't talking about Britain. It’s very interesting.”
