CHERRY HILL, N.J. - ‘Who can it be knocking at my door?' isn't just the snappy opening line to a popular ‘80s song, authorities say it's actually an extremely important question.

Police are reminding residents to know who is knocking before they open the door after an extra cautious Cherry Hill resident mistook an unidentified township worker for an imposter and warned others on social media.

Officials said the confusion stemmed from the township worker using a personal car, but now the encounter is being used as a teaching moment.

Police said it's important to always check for proper identification when someone is at your door who claims to be a township official. "We just want to take the opportunity to remind the residents of what their lanyard and ID card looks like and that you will from time to time see an inspector out following up on a previous inspection," Cherry Hill Police Department Chief Robert Kempf said.Township and county inspectors are often around when there is nearby construction and can review HVAC and electrical utilities, Kempf said.

Taller people could be at higher risk for colorectal cancer, study suggests
colorectal cancer, also known as colon or rectal cancer. There are several factors that have been proven to increase a person’s risk of being diagnosed with colon cancer, some of which are unavoidable such as family history. Some modifiable risk factors include an unhealthy diet, not enough exercise, smoking and high alcohol consumption. However, scientists now believe a person’s height is another unavoidable factor that could increase a person’s risk of colon cancer, according to a new study published in the journal American Association for Cancer Research. For the study, researchers observed adults between the ages of 40 and 85 who were undergoing outpatient colonoscopy for colorectal cancer screening. The individuals had to have no prior history of colon cancer, inflammatory bowel disease, collagenous or autoimmune colitis, ischemic bowel and other illnesses that could lead to colon cancer. Researchers found that the individuals who were taller had a 24% higher risk of developing colorectal cancer as opposed to their shorter counterparts. "Every 10-cm increase in height imposed a 14% higher risk of colorectal cancer after adjusting for demographic, socioeconomic, behavioral, and other known risk factors," study authors wrote. Researchers suggested the reason why taller people may be at higher risk for being diagnosed with colorectal cancer is that they have more body mass, thus have an increased chance of developing a malformation such as a colon adenoma. "More active cell proliferation in organs of taller people could increase the possibility of mutations leading to malignant transformation," the study added. FILE - Colon cancer, tumor on the caecum and ileocolic valve, visualization on a radial CT scan.

Cardinal calls for UNHRC intervention for justice for Easter Attacks victims
COLOMBO (News 1st); The Head of Sri Lanka’s Catholic Church, His Eminence Malcolm Cardinal Rajith has called on the support of the UHNRC to intervene to uncover the truth behind the Easter Sunday Attacks of 2019 and mete out justice to the victims.“The Easter Sunday suicide bomb attacks in Sri Lanka on the 21st of April 2019 claimed the lives of 269 people including 82 children, and 47 foreign nationals belonging to 14 nations and injured more than 500 others,” said His Eminence to the 49th Regular Session of the United Nations Human Rights Council.He said the first impression of the massacre was that it was purely the work of a few Islamist extremists. However, subsequent investigations indicate that this massacre was part of a grand political plot, he added.The Head of the Catholic Church said that despite repeated requests the incumbent government of Sri Lanka has failed to mete out justice to the victims.“Instead of uncovering the truth behind the attack and prosecuting those responsible, there are attempts to harass and intimate those who call for justice,” he said.His Eminence also noted that “as a result nearly three years after the horrendous crime were are still in the dark as to what really happened on that Easter Sunday.”“As this is a serious violation of the fundamental rights of the aggrieved victims, we earnestly call upon the UNHRC and its member countries to support the continuation of evidence gathering initiated by the council last year and to devise the means to ensure an impartial investigation to unravel the truth behind the Easter Sunday massacre,” he noted.
