NBC's Chuck Todd: 'Let's Not Bury Our Heads In The Sand…. It's Called Climate Change, Folks'
Perhaps Sandy will be a turning point for the media.
In the wake of Superstorm Sandy, NBC political director Chuck Todd said bluntly during MSNBC's "The Daily Rundown":
Second year in a row the New York Metro area hit by this stuff. Let's not bury our heads in the sand when it comes to — something has changed in the Atlantic. The climate has changed. It's called climate change, folks.
Watch it:
30 Responses to NBC's Chuck Todd: 'Let's Not Bury Our Heads In The Sand…. It's Called Climate Change, Folks'
What did you say? Let's not bury our heads in the Sandy?
What I've observed is that, for some, as long as they are not forced to call it "global warming" or "climate change" — politicized terms — they are perfectly willing to acknowledge the realities of more frequent, more severe, more dangerous weather patterns. As Joe and many others have described, semantics and word choice can often mean everything. None of the serious scientists or policymakers or analysts and activists that are concerned about this care very much about what to call it, they just care that we take action to "avoid the unmanageable and manage the unavoidable" consequences of the "greenhouse effect." While I won't suggest renaming climate change "Furious Blowback from Mother Earth" or "The Planet Strikes Back" I do think this event IS the turning point representing the moment in time when the media woke up, smelled the coffee, and said to themselves, "holy crap." It's about damn time.
What if … the party is over?
Deniers and avoiders coming crashing down to sand(y). Risk reality 101.
What If Mike Bloomberg Is Right And A Climate Change Nightmare Is Here? – Forbes
After living through the biggest storm to hit New York in years — and talking to climate scientists — it's hard not to ask: What if Bloomberg's right?
"We couldn't come to emotional terms with the destruction a fourteen foot wall of water could do to this city. Now we don't have any choice."
Climate Portals Many cant/wont come to terms with the destruction of 1C global warming is/will do. And now we dont have much options….
I'd like to think of this as a potential turning point for the media, but the cynical side of me thinks it's more plausible that the re-emphasized attention on climate change will gradually fade over the next month, there will be some ridiculous chatter next there's a blizzard (SHOCKING!), and by next Spring we're right back where we started from.
If the Obama administration had continued to make climate change a top-line priority (which it briefly was, along with health care), then the attention to climate change that events like Sandy create (the only good thing about these terrible disasters) might be enough to push the movement over the hump and actually get legislation with teeth through congress. Instead, it just gets us back to where we've been before.
I am not so sure that this is a turning point. It wasn't for Katrina even though it motivated Chris Mooney to write Storm World. We still have stories of the rebuilding of New Orleans, but we also have stories of refugees from New Orleans that landed on the wrong side of Staten Island and lost everything again.
I won't believe that we have turned the corner on media coverage until they start treating it as a mainstreet economic topic rather than putting into an easily ignored environmental category. Let's see Nightly Business Report asking Insurance Executives about climate risk, or energy company executives about their plans for reduction in fossil fuel use. Let's see NBC's Mad Money talk about Sustainable Economy Funds.
Maybe we should make Ecology 101 a mandatory class for incoming College Students. Let's see that discussion with Rehema Ellis (NBC) or Soleded O'Brien (CNN), both of whom can provide good coverage of education.
The current coverage from the political reporters like Todd is driven by events and the election. Both of those will fade and so will the hope of good coverage until we link climate change to everything else,
OT but probably of interest.
James Balog of Extreme Ice Survey on Real Time with Bill Maher.
I personally find it beyond ironic that the very anthropogenic climate change that Obama has decided to ignore in this campaign has probably done him the ultimate favor for his reëlection chances.
I'm running out of adjectives for ironic, but it's incredibly ironic to me that Michael Bloomberg, an Independent, was the one to give voice to the issue at this crucial time, was the one to show the President how well it was received—and how well it could have been received—if uttered by Obama.
It's flat out heartbreaking to me that Obama can't even bring himself to acknowledge these two beyond- and incredibly-ironic facts any more than to say: "Mayor Bloomberg and I agree on the most important issues of our time – that the key to a strong economy is investing in the skills and education of our people, that immigration reform is essential to an open and dynamic democracy, and that climate change is a threat to our children's future."
If I were Michael Bloomberg and the stakes weren't so damn high, I'd give serious consideration to revoking my endorsement for that response.
Finally, last night I was redirected by a WAPO article to an article written by Ryan Lizza of The New Yorker back in 2010, a post-mortem as it were, of the demise of the carbon cap-and-trade bill in the Senate in 2010. I read it back in 2010, but I reread it again last night with so much more disbelief and anger. It's well worth reading and not behind a subscription-wall.
This is just a foretaste of our future, though trying to mention it in polite company has roughly the same effect as an admission to having leprosy.
But at least Sandy reminds us that we have created the chaos of our environment by burning fuel, now we have no choice but to burn more fuel to combat it. If the final bill is $50Bn, the means $50Bn worth of energy being burned somewhere to put things right.
The cities battered by hurricane Sandy were built with hydrocarbon energy, and we have to burn more of it to prevent Nature pounding them out of existence.
If you think that concept is too extreme, this time it's going to take up to two weeks to get the power back on. We only have so much resource available to fix things, and our energy supplies are in decline; whereas Nature's power is literally unlimited. When we reach the point where we no longer have the means to 'fix things', whatever nature knocks down will stay down.
That's not just about beachfront homes and powerlines, but food supplies hit by catastrophic drought
This is the unwinnable struggle we face, it's more than fixing a few power lines so the lights in Wall Street can come back on.
Things will get back to normal, and the mating calls of the hoax-merchants will be heard once more
But we all know the winds will be back.
And we will have to burn more fuel to resist the forces of chaos again.
And again.
And again.
Any bets on the ultimate winner in all this?
I'd love it if it happens, but am afraid that it won't. We thought things would change after Katrina and Gore's movie, but we were back to BAU in no time. With two presidential candidates showing deep ties to fossil fuel companies, we can't expect serious action within a meaningful time frame unless the people awaken. Politicians and media won't do that for us.
This video plays automatically ( from the teaser) on my chrome brwoser.
"Of all the adaptation schemes, the least effective is denial."
– Psychotherapist Dr. Betty Merton
Yes — and perhaps equally important, it hit the home of one David Hamilton Koch.
I don't really expect it will turn his head around, but we can always hope.
How about we use "Climate Delta." That can't "political," can it?
And it has shut down Wall Street (the physical location) for possibly weeks.
You don't think Bloomberg's endorsement came from the goodness of his heart, do you?
Obama just said WHAT?
"… and that climate change is a threat to our children's future." !!?#$!!???
Future my patootie! We just had a massive storm which in fact killed some of our children — along with wiping out the Jersey shore and Staten Island and bringing NY to a standstill.
By "future," does Obama mean this weekend?
…and our energy supplies are in decline; whereas Nature's power is literally unlimited.
Unless we convert to solar that is. Solar energy is limitless for all practical purposes and will be for the next five billion years or so, which gives us a breather to figure out new solutions.
The 75% volume loss of arctic ice has consequence. Rebuilding and replacing all that Sandy ruined will have a carbon footprint. There is a lot of heating in the pipeline already and sorry if it sounds un-American to say but not rebuilding on sand at a 5 foot elevation might be a practical response. We can wait until the arctic melts out completely to decide but waiting isn't going to be far off so maybe we should make some tough choices now.
Ironic to see lines of cars waiting to gas up
Ironic to see 200 million gallons of gas delivered to NYC
Ironic to see people going right back to the crack That got them/us in this predicament
As mentioned solar wind EV are alternatives that will not "fuel the fire" of climate change
Peace and hope to those suffering in NJ NY CT
Getting back in your internal combustion vehicle is like the awful story of a wife going back to an abusive husband
No more unpatriotic then declaring the lunacy of maintaining and expanding cities like Phoenix and Las Vegas in the desert SW.
"Politicians and media won't do that for us."
True but they can aid or hinder the effort. Mostly they've been doing the later. I sure when the media bosses get an earful from their big coal and oil advertisers that pressure will be brought to bear on the media personalities. Maybe a few heads will roll. But soon it will be back to the pre-Sandy status quo.
Remember, CNN nuked its science reporting, because the sponsors didn't want the message broadcast. Then the public is back in the denialist loop again.
I started thinking about the financial implications if we suddenly wake up to the danger. Thirty-trillion dollars in fossil fuel equity -down the tubes. How many more banks and retirement funds will then need bailing out. No way! Business as usual is a giant game of extend and pretend, and overturning the fossil fuel cart will surely trainwreck the whole financial house of cards. So rather than face that as the shortterm, we will sacrifice the longterm and extend-and-pretend (deny).
It's the "anthropogenic" part that is the biggest sticking point even for those conservatives willing to admit that there is something going on, and without that there will no action.
Good points. Fossil fuels are so profitable that they are joined at the hip to our financial institutions. And besides retirement accounts, don't forget the 1%. They sub out their investments to professional money managers, who love that low risk fossil fuel income. We need to introduce risk in those investments. Then we might see change, which will require fossil fuel wealth destruction.
Nah, he and the family are probably skiing in his Aspen place. The help is looking after the apartment in Manhattan. Koch is crazy, and will never change.
The loss does not have to be destruction just amortized over a much longer period of time. Clearly the reserves that remain will remain and the transition to the Green Awakening Economy are not going to happen over night. The folks that have investments in ecocide fossil will indeed see less gains but most have ample to still buy food and those that do not could receive portfolios of green investments to tide them over. Besides, those Green Investments are sure to grow rapidly with renewed attention in the transition. All payed for by the SUN… It can be done. It must be done.
Stopping profits from the pollution of the commons is just a first step. A long path remains, unlike the ecocide fossil trail capitalism has followed for the past centuries. Socially enabled capitalism has proven itself a failed paradigm.
The reality is that, in a plutocracy with a sham veneer of 'democracy', the only opinions that count are those of the rich owners of society. Their Rightwing MSM faithfully echo their Bosses' opinions, the political caste who depend on the rich's 'contributions' durst not bite the hand that feeds them, and the public, struggling with burgeoning economic inequality and workplace insecurity, have not the time nor inclination to rock the boat. They are relentlessly and remorselessly brainwashed by ever more hysterical Rightwing demagogues, and environmentalists have become the most violently demonised group in society, because their message threatens the economic power of the wealthy. Sitting back and waiting for the elites to somehow confect consciences ex nihilo is pointless. They rarely have, and regarding climate destabilisation, most seem determined to fight to the bitter end.
That is the central truth. The fossil fuel assets underpin the entire capitalist house of cards, and if they are rendered worthless, as is required to save humanity from ecological doom, capitalism will collapse under the burden of debt. That is why the Bosses will never agree to rapid decarbonisation.
Perhaps not, but he seems less of a suicidal fool than the rest of the elite.

Nokia CEO Elop bookies favourite to take on Microsoft top spot
Chair thrower to be replaced by iPhone thrower
IPHONE LOBBER Stephen Elop is the bookies favourite to take over from Steve Ballmer when he leaves Microsoft next year.
Betting firm Ladbrokes has released its odds for the most likely candidates for the Microsoft chief executive job. In at top slot, with narrow odds of only 5/1 is Nokia chief and former Microsoft exec Elop, whose biggest achievement recently has been jokingly throwing an iPhone across the room during an interview, garnering lots of media coverage.
Elop could be a savvy choice if Microsoft is determined to go mobile-first across the organisation. Rising sales of Windows Mobile on Nokia handsets indicate that Elop has the right approach for breaking into this hotly contested market, but while Microsoft has managed to overtake BlackBerry as number three smartphone platform, it's still far behind Android and iOS.
Coming in a very close second favourite at 6/1 is Kevin Turner, current chief operating officer at Microsoft and former CIO at Wal-Mart, so he could prove a popular choice with the finance team for exploiting workers and driving down wage costs at the supermarket giant.
Ex-Microsofter Steve Sinofsky and current VP of devices Julie Larson-Green are both in at 8/1, followed by several other ex- and current Microsoft execs.
Founder Bill Gates is an outside shot at only 50/1, even though many in the industry see him as the logical choice.
Even though many would love to see a total outside being brought in to take on the reins, this is seen as very unlikely by the bookies, who are giving long odds to candidates like Yahoo chief and ex-Googler Marissa Meyer, Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg, Twitter founder Jack Dorsey and Apple design guru Jony Ive.
Perhaps Microsoft will surprise us all and bring in an unknown outsider rather than one of its own execs – but the odds of this seem about as likely as the 100/1 being offered for Apple chief Tim Cook. µ

*Fed says near-term risks to economic outlook diminished. *Target interest rate still 0.25 percent to 0.50 percent. WASHINGTON, July 27- The Federal Reserve left interest rates unchanged on Wednesday but said near-term risks to the U.S. economic outlook had diminished, opening the door to a resumption of monetary policy tightening this year. » Read More
The U.S. economy showed further signs of slowing, particularly with Thursday's report that the jobless ranks continued to swell last week
Jobless claims fell by 22,000 last week, but the number of workers remaining on jobless aid rose to its highest in more than two years.
The Bank of England is widely expected to cut interest rates by 25 basis points Thursday, for the second time in three months, in a delicate balancing act between offsetting the impacts of a slowing economy and fending off inflation.
The Fed must remain vigilant against rising inflation pressure this year even as the U.S. economy slows sharply, Philadelphia Fed President Charles Plosser said.
Richmond Federal Reserve Bank President Jeffrey Lacker Wednesday said policy-makers are worried about the possibility of recession, but that persistent inflation remains a worry for the central bank.
U.S. productivity in the fourth quarter rose at a stronger-than-expected pace as the biggest cutback in working hours in nearly five years helped restrain growth in labor costs, a U.S. Labor Department report showed on Wednesday.
The dollar edged lower against the yen and the euro Wednesday with investors reluctant to place big bets on currencies ahead of a key interest rate decision from the European Central Bank on Thursday.
The European Central Bank is likely to keep its title as the last inflation hawk standing at its rate-setting meeting Thursday, but as fears of a global economic slowdown grow, calls for easing will only increase.
The most likely path for the US economy is sluggish growth for at least half a year before a gradual recovery begins, Richmond Federal Reserve Bank President Jeffrey Lacker said.
The euro tumbled broadly Tuesday after dismal euro zone service sector data fedexpectations the European Central Bank also might have to cut interest rates to shore up growth.
If the health of the economy is so murky, why has the Federal Reserve been so aggressive in cutting interest rates?
Euro zone service sector growth slowed sharply in January from an already weak estimate and retail sales fell in the key Christmas period, according to data on Tuesday that stoked fears of a recession.
Australia's central bank on Tuesday raised interest rates to a decade peak of 7 percent, as it struggled to keep inflation under control, and left the door open for even more hikes if the red-hot economy did not cool soon.
Australian consumers went on a shopping spree last quarter, data showed on Tuesday, giving a boost to an already red-hot economy and reinforcing the case for an imminent rise in interest rates.
The dollar slipped against the euro and edged up against the yen Monday as investors waited to see how major central banks at policy meetings this week will respond to a potential global economic slowdown.
New orders at U.S. factories rose a less-than-expected 2.3 percent in December, the steepestgain since July, on strong aircraft sales, a government report showed.
The labor market may be weak, but that doesn't necessarily mean the US economy is in recession or on the verge of one.
Australia's inflation headache worsened in January while house prices boasted double-digit gains in 2007, figures out on Monday showed, adding to expectations for a restraining rise in interest rates this week.
The dollar rose against the euro and sterling Friday after a report showed a gauge of U.S. manufacturing in January was higher than expected, helping the U.S. currency recover after soft labor market data earlier in the session.
The U.S. manufacturing sector staged a surprise recovery, while consumer sentiment improved in January, but construction spending in the U.S. fell for the third month in a row, reflecting continued weakness in the housing sector.

The folks behind annoying commercials are a bunch of dicks ... and that's a surprise ending?
Thank God. It should never have come to this though. It's pretty saddening to me that snake oil is openly and commonly sold on American TV. That popular sports events are funded by dick biggening spam.
I guess it's no different than the psychic ads that were more popular 20 years ago it's just that ingestion seems a bit more important.

Are you saying those pills don't work?
Dang, there goes my Christmas gift to Fnarf ...
@13: my mom's last name is not solomon.
I was in one of those ads. It was a fun shoot and "Smilin' Bob" was a nice guy, but I felt like a hypocrite and a moral coward from the minute i walked on set. Kind of like how I suspect Olympic athletes who take sponsorship dollars from McDonalds and Snickers (should) feel.
I don't need those stupid pills, I need THESE pills: http://www.penisreductionpills.com/
Shit, I forgot my usual comment about being hung like a baby's arm with an apple in his fist.

Bears win gives Saints home-field advantage throughout NFC playoffs
Published: Monday, December 28, 2009 at 11:00 p.m.
Last Modified: Monday, December 28, 2009 at 11:22 p.m.
CHICAGO — Jay Cutler threw a 39-yard touchdown pass to Devin Aromashodu in overtime, and the Chicago Bears beat the fading Minnesota Vikings 36-30 on Monday night to give New Orleans Saints homefield advantage throughout the NFC playoffs.
Nick Roach recovered a fumble by Adrian Peterson following a catch, setting up Cutler's fourth touchdown pass of the game and sending Minnesota (11-4) to its third loss in four games.
This one comes following a dustup between star quarterback Brett Favre and coach Brad Childress on the sideline last week, and it prevented the Vikings from locking up a first-round playoff bye.

IF YOU DON'T want to join the hundreds of SEPTA riders screaming "iYiYi! My iPhone!" as their smart handhelds disappear into the smarter hands of quick-grab thieves, you better heed the urgent warnings now blasting over public-address systems on subway and El trains.
To save your Droid from the void, keep your smartphone hidden while riding, SEPTA Transit Police Chief Richard Evans told the Daily News.
Most of last year's 415 thefts and robberies committed on the Broad Street Line and the Market Frankford El involved smart- phones, e-readers and laptops, he said. That kind of crime has trended dramatically upward since the 182 thefts and robberies in 2008 to more than double that number during the 58 million passenger trips taken last year.

Longtime Thibodaux official is stepping down
Published: Wednesday, October 17, 2007 at 1:00 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, October 17, 2007 at 1:01 p.m.
THIBODAUX - A 24-year fixture with the Thibodaux government announced intentions to step down during a sentimental moment at Tuesday nights council meeting.
Council Administrator Tommy Eschete, 49, will vacate his post Jan. 7 to manage public relations for a Thibodaux-based engineering, architecture and land-surveying firm.
The council also voted 4-1 in favor of promoting Jenny Morvant, the current assistant council administrator, to replace Eschete.
Eschete said had no intentions of pursuing a career change when the new job was offered, but accepted it in an effort to escape politics and seek new challenges.
I made a lot of friends and colleagues, and not just people who work for the city, but people that Ive come to have professional relationships with throughout the community, he said. In my new position, I feel Ill still have those opportunities to be active in the community.
He is considering returning to politics later in life, he said.
Council members all thanked Eschete for his years of service Their gratitude was highlighted by a brief pause from city business when Councilman Jerome Dee Richard read Eschetes letter of resignation aloud.
Morvant, his replacement, has been employed by the city for nine years and spent more than six of those years as the assistant council administrator. The council has yet to determine who will take her place.

Spy Photos: Mazda3 sedan wearing skin-tight camo
When is camo not really camo? When it's black and white tape stuck to the body of the 2010 Mazda3 sedan. The new 3 was recently caught in the U.S. and the new front end is essentially a reworked version of the Mazda6's, with a grinning, two-piece grille split by an angular bumper. Notice the bulges and fairings around the foglamps next to the lower grille, and the way the stretched headlights and flared fenders turn the hood outline into a wild polyhedral. The sculpted leather seats and roomy cabin look a treat as well. Assuming Mazda won't jack up the price or sink the driving dynamics, this could exceed the success of the current car. We'll bring you the full story from the LA Auto Show in just about sixty days. Thanks for the tip, Kris!

Hello from Duluth, Minnesota! I spend my time helping small businesses and fellow sole proprietors start and grow their businesses. All that magic happens from my living-room studio called Madhouse. I sometimes put real pants on to hike up the shore of Lake Superior or chase my 5-year old daughter around outside.
Before I decided to take the leap to go solo, I was working at the small agency Swim Creative as a web developer. Before that, I worked on a lean startup team at the Garage as a UX/UI designer. I first got my digs in web design at a Minneapolis agency called Creative Arc where I mocked up photoshop files of websites and had some other guy make it work for me.
Other interests include music, Patsy Cline, WW2 movies (I know, depressing.), cooking in my cast iron dutch oven & skillet, baking cakes, canoeing and kayaking, and being generally domesticated.My Resume View My Work

Public universities depend increasingly on donor funds to maintain and enhance the quality of their teaching, research, and other services to the community. These gains also benefit students and alumni by helping to secure the standing of their degrees. The Department of Philosophy and Religious Studies always welcomes donations, no matter how modest, in support of its work. All donations are tax-deductible.
If you are interested in discussing the possibility of a donation, a larger gift, a deferred gift, or a named endowment to support something close to your heart, please contact Michael Pendlebury at email@example.com or (919) 515-6103.
The Department has two standing funds that are always open for donations:
The Philosophy and Religious Studies Student Awards Fund was launched in March 2011. As a result of the Bryan Family Gift in July 2015, we achieved our initial goal of raising $25,000. This made it possible to convert the fund into an income-earning endowment that will provide permanent support for student awards in Philosophy and Religious Studies, including prizes in honor of distinguished emeritus faculty who made major contributions to the Department's development. We now seek to raise the fund to a higher level.
The Philosophy and Religious Studies Development Fund accepts donations that support all the Department's operations and activities according to need. At present, the fund is used mainly to support our visiting speaker programs.
We welcome one-time gifts, recurring gifts, and sustaining gifts. For more information, see Making a Gift. For a list of donors since 2010, see Donors.
The Department is pleased to acknowledge a generous gift to the Philosophy and Religious Studies Student Awards Fund from the Bryan family made in July 2015 in honor of Professor Robert S. Bryan, a distinguished former Head of the Department.
The Bryan Family Gift made it possible to convert the Fund into an income-earning endowment, which will permanently secure NC State student awards in Philosophy and Religious Studies, including the Philosophy Prize in Honor of Professor Robert S. Bryan. This prize was established in 2011 in recognition of the crucial role played by Professor Bryan in building an excellent department of Philosophy and Religious Studies at NC State during his tenure as Head, from 1966 to 1989.
We welcome further donations to the Philosophy and Religious Studies Student Awards Fund.
By Credit Card: The following secure online forms can be used for one-time gifts, recurring gifts over a defined period of time (e.g., $10 per month for five years), and sustaining gifts, which continue indefinitely (e.g., $25 per quarter). To make a recurring gift, select "Scheduled Payments"; and to make a sustaining gift, select "Perpetual Gift."
By Check: Please make your check payable to the NC State Foundation Inc., specifying one of the above funds on the memo line, and mail your check to:
Development Office
Humanities and Social Sciences
North Carolina State University
Campus Box 7016
Raleigh, NC 27695-7016
Alumni Annual Giving: Alumni who contribute to NC State University through Alumni Annual Giving may ask to have their gifts assigned to one of the above funds (or any other fund in which they have a special interest).
NC State Employees can make recurring or sustaining donations by payroll deduction. To do this, please complete the required payroll deduction form. For further information, contact Michael Pendlebury at firstname.lastname@example.com or (919) 515-6103.
Larger Gifts, Deferred Gifts, and Named Endowments: Please contact Michael Pendlebury at email@example.com or (919) 515-6103.
The Department is grateful to the following donors for gifts made since 2010. Unless otherwise indicated, gifts were made to the Philosophy and Religious Studies Student Awards Fund. In the case of donors who have made recurring gifts, sustaining gifts, or two or more single gifts, entries are based on their cumulative donations to date.

Running Time: 80
Director: Martyn G Mayer
Companies: HIS Video, VCA
Distribution Companies: HIS
Cast: Sam Abdul, Kyle West, Dallas Taylor, Kip Tyler, Rod Garetto, Storm (IV), Brad Chase, Noble Ali
Critical Rating: AA
Genre: Gay and Bi
This average sexvid involves the standard plot of editing XXX-rated films and bringing the work home! The sex never does rise above mediocrity. Mayer's direction seems formulaic, the videography is unimaginative and the cast seems uninspired. Storm attempts to liven up the script, but his efforts are pretty must lost.

Swift Systems For bose soundlink Considered
As you stock up on back-to-school gadgets, it's best to tune in to what people are saying about sound systems, but turn on the devices like speakers at your local retailer if you can to hear if it fits your sound requirements and budget. Well go sit on Santa's lap and request a Bose Soundlink Mini for Christmas already. 99 this piece doubles as artwork for your entertainment system. The "Mama Bear" - the Sound - Touch 20 Wi-Fi system - is a more compact unit that can be parked nearly anywhere you want good sound. The system has a Aux in, which means that if any of your friend comes over together with his i - Pod, you can even flow songs from his i - Pod to any place around your home with all the amazing system.
The coolest feature about this stereo dock is that it gives you the freedom to play every one of your music wirelessly. The speaker features a transmission distance of 30 feet, which makes it convenient to position the speaker n optimal listening position while keeping your portable device close to you. Ear-smashing New York City subways are known around the globe to cause the loss of hearing - and that's before you even steep foot into the subway High decibel levels are eardrum killers and even though I don't carry my i - Pod into the hellish hole that is the subway, I can appreciate the need for diversion. Along with that, the six buttons on top were very simple to use and navigate. Once you end the call, your Bose Sound - Link speaker will instantly return to working.
Then this wireless speaker set is perfect for you, each speaker is no larger then the palm of your hand. How do you keep the tunes you would like to enjoy all the time.

The speaker has a transmission distance of 30 feet, which makes it convenient to position the speaker in an optimal listening position while you are keeping your portable device close to you. We also found this minimalistic and alternative style to be refreshing, however, user will have to accept the trade-off for the small size. These Bose laptop speakers were the first to offer the True - Space Stereo Everywhere technology in speakers. s more, wireless Bose speakers offer you the facility to enjoy music at your home and not just in one room where the PC is installed. Right now, the systems offer Pandora and the company swears (though, magically, without cuss words.
So if you are one of those people, who truly care about the quality of their music and don't want to be distracted, then the Bose QC15 is the perfect one. I take it with me whenever I travel ' as well as using it around the house, of course ' because its small footprint and overall size coupled with its excellent sound quality for the size make it an ideal companion for those times I'm forced to live out of my suitcase. Some major changes that beta has as compared with beta 1 are not wearing running shoes gives you flexibility to depart nasty bugs that have there been in beta1. This custom dock lets you easily play your stereo Bluetooth music through your Sound - Dock 10 system. Initially, Bose is introducing three one-piece systems, each of which they say was engineered to deliver the best audio performance available from speakers of their size.By lynne4917ebzkqx

Jimmy Kimmel's 'Lie Witness News' Makes Idiots Out of Warriors Fans [VIDEO]
As we get ready for Game 4 of the NBA Finals in Cleveland, Jimmy Kimmel gives us a hilarious but perhaps not-so-flattering closer look at Golden State Warriors fans.
As we get ready for Game 4 of the NBA Finals in Cleveland, Jimmy Kimmel gives us a hilarious but perhaps not-so-flattering closer look at Golden State Warriors fans.
Celebrities have feelings, too. Even when you think you're just talking random smack about them in the wide world of the internet (web?), you're still talking random smack about real people. If you're tweeting mean stuff? They might see it. And it might hurt them.
Did you really think that the blockbuster 'Taken' franchise was over with the release of last week's 'Taken 3'? Come on, you know better than that. We all know better than that.
For his latest round of "Celebrities Read Mean Tweets," Jimmy Kimmel trotted out his most star-studded line-up of celebs yet, including Gwyneth Paltrow, Lena Dunham, Gerard Butler, Ty Burrell, Bob Newhart, Britney Spears, Geena Davis, Chris Pratt, Chloe Grace Moretz, Scott Foley, Michael Chiklis, Ted Danson (Ted Danson? who tweets mean things about Ted Danson?), John Stamos, Lisa Kudrow, and Adam Sandler. But he also rounded up the meanest collection of, well, #meantweets ever. These tweets are really mean, you guys!
"Everybody wants one!"
In celebration (maybe?) of this week's long-in-the-making 'Dumb and Dumber,' star Jim Carrey decided to really spice up his appearance last night on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live.' More precisely, he really wanted to Lloyd it up, doling out hideous Lloyd Christmas-styled bowl cuts to the good people of Hollywood Blvd. How could this possibly go wrong?
Late night talk show host jimmy Kimmel is known for doing some pretty damn funny bits on his show. Here's one he featured the other night that had him and his sidekick Guillermo pitching a new product on the show Shark Tank. Will he get investors for his very original product idea? Check it out.
Like anyone who lived through the '90s, Jimmy Kimmel loved 'Friends,' but while being a fan of the television staple is wholly understandable, the depth of his affection is, well, perhaps not. Kimmel hosted 'Friends' star Jennifer Aniston on his show last night, and while she might have expected to chat about her latest movie, 'Life of Crime,' and share some fun tidbits and anecdotes, the host had other ideas.
'Jimmy Kimmel Live' host Jimmy Kimmel likes to have fun with his recurring "celebrities read mean tweets about themselves" segments, which always manage to be fun and strange and not too painful. Of course, if you know anything about Twitter trolls, you know that the tweets the Kimmel team picks are not nearly the meanest of the mean, they're just the right mix of rude and amusing. There are certainly much meaner tweets out there, and some celebrities actually want those.
If you don't watch the soapy smash hit 'Scandal,' many of Jimmy Kimmel's recent long-form skits on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' might be lost on you. After all, the late-night host has kind of made sending up the show his bag (he's even started his own fake version of the show, 'Escandalo'). But the latest batch of 'Scandal'-centric bits have some universal appeal. Mainly this one, because it's bloopers. Who doesn't love bloopers?
You know what? Jimmy Kimmel has some weird ideas for fun celebrity games and manipulating social media. Okay, Jimmy Fallon? You don't have the corner on this market! In a wickedly clever combination of embarrassing celeb game and social media wackiness, Kimmel rolled out his "Tweeter Totter" on last night's show, alongside his guest, 'Modern Family' star Julie Bowen.
The Ford Mustang is turning 50 years old this year, and in celebration of the great American muscle car, Jimmy Kimmel and his 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' minions (including Guillermo, of course) put together a special little commercial for the vehicle. And it's so, so disturbing.
Everyone wants in on the 'Game of Thrones' business! Now that the popular HBO series has returned for season 4, the promotional tie-ins are starting to roll out, and it looks like KFC is hungry to spread the love, synergy, and chicken.

Q: Why are the scam artist picking on us senior citizens?
A: Among elderly adults scams are increasing with the anticipation they will accelerate in the coming years as the elder population increases. According to a recent study by the MetLife Mature Market Institute, the elderly lose at least $2.6 billion to thieves each year, many of whom are their own family members.

Obama Signs Bill to Block Iran UN Envoy, Called Advisory
President Barack Obama signed into law a measure designed to block Iran's choice for its next ambassador to the United Nations with a caveat: its use would be entirely up to the president.
Citing the precedent set by former President George H.W. Bush on the same issue, Obama accompanied the bill signing with a statement that he would treat the changes to the law "as advisory," so as to not curtail his constitutional right to receive or reject ambassadors.
Texas Republican Senator Ted Cruz crafted the bill in response to Iran's choice of Hamid Aboutalebi as its next UN envoy. Aboutalebi has been linked to a student group that led the takeover of the U.S. embassy in Tehran in 1979 and held 52 Americans hostage for 444 days. The U.S. responded to the takeover by breaking diplomatic ties with Iran.
The law denies admission to the U.S. "to any representative to the United Nations who has engaged in espionage activities against the United States, poses a threat to United States national security interests, or has engaged in a terrorist activity against the United States."
White House Press Secretary Jay Carney said last week the administration would not issue Aboutalebi a visa. Iran has rejected the U.S. decision and filed a complaint with UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon.
Signing Statements
Obama was critical of such signing statements when he was in the U.S. Senate and running for president in 2008. The language in Obama's signing statement tracks with what he laid out as his administration's policy in 2009, stating in a memorandum then that he would issue the statements "only when it is appropriate to do so as a means of discharging my constitutional responsibilities."
In that memo, Obama made reference to concerns raised by many Democrats about the use of signing statements by President George W. Bush, George H.W. Bush's son and Obama's immediate predecessor, noting that "the practice of issuing such statements can be abused."
Still, according to the memo, the statements have a role.
"Such signing statements serve a legitimate function in our system, at least when based on well-founded constitutional objections," Obama said.

WASHINGTON (September 19, 2013)--The Washington Navy Yard reopened to workers Thursday, three days after it a mass shooting in which a gunman killed 12 people.
Gates at the Navy installation reopened at 6 a.m. Thursday, but traffic was blocked from reaching the main gate because a tractor-trailer driver tried to make a U-turn, and the rig's load shifted.
The truck was blocking the road in front of the Navy Yard early Thursday.
Navy spokeswoman Lt. Cmdr. Sarah Flaherty said Thursday would be a regular work day, except for in Building 197, where the shootings occurred, and the base gym.
She says the gym is being used as a staging area for the FBI to investigate Monday's rampage in which former Navy reservist Aaron Alexis gunned down 12 people before being killed by police.

Vote for the Greatest Album of All Time-AGAIN...the poll has been revised to include more than 50 entries
These albums are all masterpieces. I guess the only question is:
"Which one's the greatest of them all?"
You can help answer that by voting.
I'll probably run this poll until the end of the year before declaring an official winner.
Thanks for your votes!
- Login to post comments
The greatest album of all time, in a more objective sense, would probably be either Sgt. Pepper's or Pet Sounds; however, the ones I enjoy the most are Screamadelica and Sign 'O' The Times.
- Login to post comments
The first list was good. The second list? Magnifique.
I tried to vote again, but it said I couldn't... I got sad. But then again, I think I voted for the same album, so I guess I don't have to vote again.
- Login to post comments
This is wierd...it won't let me clear the votes.
Do you know how to clear the votes?
I've pressed it and saved about 5 times now and it doesn't seem to be working.
I'd like to give everyone a chance to re-vote, if that's even possible without making an entirely new post.
Any help you can give me would be greatly appreciated. Thankyou.

Sorry about the poll problems! When I deployed that feature there was a flurry of activity but then they fell into disuse, so they haven't been as thoroughly debugged as they should be.
I think I found the bug. If you still want to, give "clear votes" another try and let me know if that does the trick.
- Login to post comments
I have absolutely no idea. I've never done a poll...
I wish I could help you! But I've got nothing. Perhaps it takes awhile to make that kind of change.
- Login to post comments
I haven't voted yet - I'm holding out for you to include Abbey Road. If not, I'll probably vote for Pet Sounds over the Beatles.
- Login to post comments
Well, Jen I can't include Abbey Road unless I add about 15 or 20 others before it, so here goes...
I'm convinced now.
But don't ask for anymore (:
- Login to post comments
I must say that there are not near enough albums on here to be considered the greatest of all time. You need a Pink Floyd rep, Carole King, and Fleetwood Mac to name a few. But, thats just my opinion.
- Login to post comments
Sure, I could've included many, many more.
I decided to break the entries down in to the few albums I considered to be at the very, very peak of rock history.
If the list was expanded to 40 or 50 entries "Rumours" would've made it, as well as "Dark Side of the Moon". And perhaps Carole King's Greatest Hits collection or something of the sort.
But, as I said before, I think these 12 albums alone represent rock at it's best and most influential. There are hundreds of other great albums, but few can be argued to share the same perfection and artistic creation that these do.
- Login to post comments
...except for "Kind of Blue" by Miles Davis.
I recently "discovered" this album and I can say with certainty that it is among the top 5 albums ever made. A flawless masterpiece.
I recommend it to anyone who enjoys music (!)
It won't matter if you like jazz or not. Besides its the best starting point possible, as it is probably the greatest jazz album ever made and certainly the most influential. Pick it up ASAP.
- Login to post comments
I am in agreement. In addition, as a jazz neophyte, I found "A Love Supreme" by John Coltrane to be a complete revelation. The album is electric, completely and totally alive.
- Login to post comments
So far with only seven votes, listologists have made this a dead heat!
Pet Sounds, Revolver, and What's Going On all share the top spot with 2 votes each. Blonde On Blonde not far behind with 1 vote.
Anything can happen...
Keep voting! Thank you.

If Ziggy Stardust had been on here, the results would be at least a little different.
- Login to post comments
I hear ya, AAA
Ziggy came close to making it but not quite.
A few other "honorable mentions" that would've made a more comprehensive list are:
"Let It Bleed", "Never Mind the Bollocks", "London Calling", "The Beatles", "Abbey Road", "The Stone Roses", "OK Computer", "Nevermind", and plenty more.

Contraceptive use in South Africa under apartheid

In this paper, patterns of contraceptive use among black South African women in the late 1980s are examined. Multilevel logit models are used to evaluate the extent to which segregation of the African population into homelands gave rise to uneven patterns of contraceptive use; how this pattern was shaped by variations in family-planning acceptability; and the way in which the system of male labor migration and social and economic inequities across communities affected women's use of contraceptives. Results show that variation in contraceptive use across homeland areas diminished with the addition of community controls for development and migration. Controlling for unobserved heterogeneity indicated that localized conditions could offset the advantages or disadvantages of living in a former homeland.

The Chaminade College Prep Hockey Club would like to congratulate one of our own, Matt Buha Sr., on his entry into the St. Louis Amateur Hockey Hall Of Fame. This great honor is bestowed upon those who have selflessly given back to the St. Louis Hockey community over time. Coach Buha has influenced numerous players and coaches over the years and continues to do so today as many of his former players are coaching youth hockey around the Metro area. Coach Buha spent many years coaching the St. Louis Junior Blues, AAA Blues and of course Chaminade College Prep Varsity Red Devil Hockey. Help support Coach Buha and the St. Louis Amateur Hockey Hall of fame by attending the induction dinner and ceremony August 29th at the Sheraton St. Louis City Center.
Although people joke about twin telepathy, the Hogan twins' performance on the ice makes a strong argument for the myth.
Arizona Wildcat hockey has two new additions to the team, John and Brian "Toppie" Hogan. Although they have been off the ice for over a year-and-a-half, the Tucson Convention Center Arena already knows the name of these two men, as they have made an immediate impact for Arizona.
Since the twins began to walk, they were simultaneously skating on the ice. For the past 11 years, John and Toppie Hogan have played on the same offensive line together.
"We've been doing it for so long, people actually think we have twin telepathy," Toppie Hogan said. "We throw blind passes and just know the other will be there to get it."
After ending their hockey careers on a high note by winning a national championship with the St. Louis Selects hockey team, the boys packed away their pads and hung up their sticks for good — or so they thought. In 2013, the two left the hockey world behind and ventured to Tucson to start their freshman years of college.
Once the Midwesterners adjusted to the Southwest desert and settled into college life, the twins realized just how much they missed hockey. John Hogan couldn't stay away from the sport much longer, so he volunteered to assist the UA coaches in recording statistics and creating game-time strategies.
"We thought we could not miss hockey, but we did," John Hogan said. "I just missed the hockey world and wanted to be part of it again. But after a while, I thought I would be a better asset on the ice than just sitting and watching it."
Both John and Toppie Hogan have proven to be great assets on the Wildcat team early on in their collegiate careers. In just three weeks of games, Toppie Hogan has scored a total of 13 points, and John Hogan has accumulated 8 points.
"We didn't know how the team would accept two new guys, but they have helped us, and we all have fun together on and off the ice," Toppie Hogan said. "It also helps the transition onto the team, [because] our production has been there so far."
This dynamic duo is unique because they don't just score — they score together. Every single one of John's three goals this season has been assisted from twin brother Brian Hogan.
"We don't fight that much, because we realize we are much better together than we are apart," John Hogan said. "If we played on separate lines, we wouldn't be as productive as we are."
Although identical, the twins have different styles of play. Brian Hogan tries to emulate New York Ranger Rick Nash.
"Nash is not a superstar, but he puts up goals," Brian Hogan said. "He is an all-around solid player who works hard and uses his body if he needs to. And not to mention, everyone knows he's just a great goal scorer."
Just like Nash, Brian Hogan has no problem finding the back of the net in any game-time situation. In just seven games, he has scored six goals.
On the other hand, John Hogan tries to play like Jason Arnott of the St. Louis Blues. John Hogan has never been the fastest or the best skater on the ice. However, he compensates his weaknesses with his strong sense of hockey IQ and his ability to outsmart his opponents.
"Arnott can't skate very well, and I can't either," John Hogan said jokingly. "He is a smart player with a good hockey IQ and can always get the job done."
Whatever these two are doing, it is definitely working for them as they continue to bring success to Arizona hockey.
ST. LOUIS -- Young hockey players in St. Louis don't have to look far to see what the future can hold for the area's brightest stars.
When the Blues signed forward Paul Stastny and Chris Butler this past offseason, they didn't just get one of the league's best centers and a reliable veteran defenseman. They brought home two St. Louis natives who are providing plenty of inspiration for the next generation.
It wasn't long ago Butler and Stastny were climbing the youth ranks, which included time at Chaminade Prep under coach Matt Buha, who now lives in Texas. High school hockey plays a secondary role to elite junior teams, but Stastny joined the team for part of one season and played for Buha with the St. Louis Select program and Blues AAA team, while Butler spent two seasons with Chaminade.
"It means a lot to see these kids make the NHL," Buha says. "There were some kids that could have but didn't."
Still, they're far from the only local stars to make it all the way to the top. Another of their Chaminade teammates, Ben Bishop, started his career with the Blues and has shined this season as the top goaltender for the Eastern Conference-leading Tampa Bay Lightning.
Those successes aren't lost on the latest crop of Chaminade players, even if the program is going through a bit of a down year. New coach Kiley Hill has some connections to the Stastny family in the tight-knit St. Louis hockey community, and others have ensured his players are well aware of those who came before them.
Stastny and Butler haven't forgotten their roots, either, and their appearance at the school prior to the season still generates plenty of enthusiasm. Chaminade forwards Andrew White and Sam Johnson animatedly described their surprise when the two Blues unexpectedly showed up to display their new jerseys, and Jack Sheehan says it gave the seniors a new appreciation for their school.
"Our workout coach told us he'd watch Stastny and he'd just stand in the corner and he'd move around five guys, barely even move," Sheehan says. "They'd just all come at him and then he'd go score."
Buha always knew Stastny would have a professional career if he put in the work, thanks to his natural vision and confidence in his skills. He became a standout as a sophomore during the 2001-02 season, the one year he played at Chaminade before moving on to higher levels.
Butler took a little longer to develop, just as he did this season when he earned a call-up from Chicago in late November and played well enough to stay in St. Louis ever since. Much like Blues coach Ken Hitchcock, Buha says over time it became clear Butler could skate with just about anyone.
"He's not the kind of guy (who) if you were in the top row of the stands you would say, 'Look at No. 4,' because he didn't really stand out," Buha says. "He did not make mental mistakes and he did not take retaliatory penalties."
That consistency earned him a spot in the regular rotation, though he's the first to admit he went through an adjustment period after joining the Blues. Stastny echoes those sentiments and an early shoulder injury made it even tougher, but his eight points in the first five games of January show he's starting to live up to the hype that came when he left the Colorado Avalanche last summer.
"I think when he got booed in Colorado (on Dec. 23) he settled in," Hitchcock says. "I think the cord was cut; he's playing for us now. He has no ties to Colorado anymore other than he's still got friends there, but there's no emotional ties."
Stastny says his coach might be overdramatizing things a bit, but he's finally hitting his stride and starting to feel comfortable back in his old home. Things have changed and enough of his friends have left that he says he rarely gets asked for tickets, but where he came from still matters to most fans.
His move to St. Louis provides more motivation to improve for Chaminade senior defenseman Noah Catt, and he's probably right when he says Butler and Stastny playing nearby should help the school's recruiting efforts. Plenty of talent continues to develop in the area, and the chance to face off against future NHL skaters provides a boost to the sport's popularity.
"It's cool watching these guys and being like, 'Hey, I played with that kid when I was a mite,'" Catt says. "He could skate backwards and I couldn't and stuff. It's a good time."

Apart from starting to use e-cigarettes at times when they are not permitted to smoke, such as in public buildings or at certain outdoor functions, some smokers use e-cigarettes in an attempt to save money. Although using e-cigarettes is considered to be cheaper than smoking traditional tobacco cigarettes, more savings can be made by taking advantage of special offers such as a Jacvapour discount benefit provided by either a coupon or code. Jacvapour are a leading e-cigarette company and so despite from getting discounts from their codes and vouchers, e-cigarette users still have plenty of variety from which to choose.
As smoking cigarettes has been proven to be hazardous to the health of not just smokers but also to those around them, many countries have banned smoking in many of their buildings and has left many smokers with cravings for a cigarette whilst inside these buildings. Many smokers have found that they can reduce their craving for a cigarette, at least temporarily, by using an e-cigarette and so the use of e-cigarettes has become popular with smokers. Although e-cigarettes do not claim to be able to stop smokers from smoking, some smokers that have started to use them in certain instances, have found that they stop the craving for a cigarette enough to enable them to stop smoking completely but this is not the case for all smokers and so they continue to use both. All that a smoker has to do to smoke, is take out a cigarette and light it but e-cigarettes are a little more tricky than that and so most people learn to use them by beginning with a starter kit which not only has everything needed to start using e-cigarettes but also makes using them easy. The devices found in a starter kit are small and so often referred to as mini e-cigarettes and although they are a comfortable size for smokers, being similar in size to a tobacco cigarette, their battery is also small and so needs recharging regularly. As the frequent recharging of battery can be an inconvenience, having learned how to use e-cigarettes, many people will switch to the larger devices known as pens. Pens are slightly bigger than the mini e-cigarettes and so their batteries are also bigger and therefore need to be recharged less frequently, making them more convenient. Those smokers that use e-cigarettes in an effort to try and save money, may also switch to the pens as soon as possible as they can be cheaper to use. The reason why pens are cheaper to use than the mini e-cigarettes is because unlike the minis, which use replacement e-liquid containers, most pens have refillable containers, allowing the user to refill the containers with e-liquids bought in bulk at a cheaper price. Some e-cigarette users decide to use even larger devices and an advantage of those is that the current can be regulated, allowing the temperature to be adjusted. As it is the temperature that determines how strong the vapour produced is, a user can control the strength of the vapour they use.

Matthew 25:1–13
God grants astonishing freedom to creatures who bear the imago dei. The Arab Spring is only the latest evidence of the human desire for freedom. What's more, and far more awkward in a culture of autonomous freedom like ours, is that the God who gives us freedom also holds us accountable for what we do with this gift.
Micah 3:5–12
African-American mystic and spiritual leader Howard Thurman recalls being caught in a summer thunderstorm as a young boy. As he filled his bucket and mouth with delicious berries and plunged deeper into the forest, he neglected to notice the storm that was forming on the horizon. Then he heard crashes of thunder. Suddenly he realized that he was lost.
Deuteronomy 34:1–12
When I held my first grandchild in my arms, my perception of time was transformed. I began to ponder what his life would be like. I reflected on how it would be shaped by our responses to the challenges we are facing today—global climate change, economic uncertainty, nanosecond technology and the eclipse of the American empire.

I have installed my Xecuter 2 Pro with pogopins. The flashing of Xecuter2_4976.02_MultiVer_256k went perfect, and I enabled the modchip. I made a (supposed-to-be) bootable CDRW from the tutorials on this site and tried to run it, but it was not accepted.
I tried burning it on different CDRW media and in different burners, but it still does not work.
My problem now is that I don't know if it is the modchip that is not properly aligned or the boot disc that is faulty. Is there any way I can tell if the modchip is "in effect"? I thought that if you could flash it, it was properly installed.
I also cannot play dvd's from the wrong region, but again, I don't know if that is something you are supposed to be able to do only through the modchip or if it has something to do with the dashboard.
I guess I should solder the chip to be sure, but I'm not that good at it and if I can make it work without it I would be relieved.
Thankful for help,
Is It The Modchip Or The Boot Cd?

make a boot disk with boxplorer and your evox shit sepeat. That way if the chip is working you will be able to get into boxplorer. P.S. Use GDFImage.exe, you have to use command promt, but it has never failed me yet with CD-RW. Oh, use nero 22.214.171.124, email me at firstname.lastname@example.com if you want the crack.

I had the same problem, I tried it 20 - 30 times different media, etc. I ended up flashing it back to 4974 and guess what it ork first try with every cd. My personal original backuped games booted fine all the time though. Try this and hope it helps you out.

Once upon a time I had kiriban pictures and contest prizes to draw.
I still have, and since I'm dying to hold a new contest, I decided I really need to get those out of my system.
Also, today it's probably the first time since September I really want to draw, probably thanks to this new last minute resolution…
Well, we'll see.

Married People More Likely to Survive Cancer
Oct. 14, 2011 -- Some people think that unattached guys have it made. But being a lifelong bachelor may not be all it's cracked up to be, at least when it comes to a man's odds of surviving cancer.
A man without a mate is 35% more likely to die from cancer as a man who wears a wedding ring, a new study reveals.
Researchers tracked the number of cancer deaths for 13 common cancers, including breast, prostate, malignant melanoma, colon, and lung, in more than 440,000 Norwegian men and women over a 40-year period from 1970 to 2007.
Overall, single men and single women fared the worst in their cancer outcomes. Never-married men and women were found to have a greater risk of losing their life to the disease compared to those who had tied the knot, divorced, or were widowed.
During the 1970-1974 study period, never-married men were 18% more likely to die from cancer than married men. More recently during the 2005-2007 time period, never-married men were 35% more likely to die from cancer.
Never-married women during the 1970-1974 study period were 17% more likely to die from cancer than married women. During the 2005-2007 time period, never-married women were 22% more likely to die from cancer.
The study was published online in the journal BMC Public Health.
The Marriage Advantage
The study showed an increasingly wider gap in recent years between the cancer survival rates of men and women who have walked down the aisle and those who have not. But there was not much change in the cancer death rates for those who were widowed or divorced.
Cancer death rates in men who never got hitched appeared to steadily rise over time compared to married men. It was much higher in bachelors over 70.
"The differences in survival between unmarried and married people with cancer could possibly be explained by better general health at the time of diagnosis or better adherence to treatment regimes and follow-ups," says study researcher Astri Syse, PhD, of the Cancer Registry of Norway, in a news release.
