Amazing how much ignorance and bigotry is thrown at tobacco users, and nothing but silence from those that claim to defend the defenseless. Snus is in fact proven by numerous studies dating back 5 decades to be over 98% less harmful then smoking, with no connection to any oral cancer. It is in fact a way for millions of smokers who have been unable or unwilling to quite smoking to vastly reduce the harm associated with tobacco use. It's not tobacco that kills, it's the smoke.
In the US we have been following an abstinence only... quit or die approach to tobacco. Very 21st century Puritan, for those that are into that kind of thing, but the results have been that the quit rate for smokers has been stagnant since 2003. A far better approach is tobacco harm reduction. How about we just start telling the truth for a change. I for one have enough faith in the people of this country that, once given the the facts about reduced harm products like snus and electronic cigarettes, people will make good choices for themselves.
The point the writer is trying to get across is that the breast cancer campaign gets all the attention in the media but other cancers, specifically lung cancer, does not get any attention yet lung cancer is the deadliest form of cancer.
The lung cancer walk you are talking about is only held at two places across the country compared to several walks for breast cancer across the US.
This is really quite bad for Chrysler. I don't kinda get it why they want to shut down or lower the production of electric cars especially that the automotive market now is full of electric cars produced by other car companies. There are still some people who may want to purchase Chrysler because of it's elegant car that has sleek body, <a href="http://www.car-stuff.com/koolvuebrand.htm" rel="dofollow" style="color:black;text-decoration:none;weight:normal;">kool vue</a> parts, stylish interior and much more that consumers are desiring for. So they shouldn't lose hope in the battle. I think they should still continue the production of electric cars because this is what is in demand in the automotive market.
Well that's the whole business of the security system companies... Many anti-virus software providers have been blamed to release viruses in order to get more customers. If companies like ADT were to follow suit that would mean breaking into people's homes in order to scare the neighborhood. It's true that they are using strategies similar to the military in order to spread fear into the society which in turn will make room for the need for better security. Do we need a war? I don't think so but I'm not the person to decide. Do I need a home security system? I sure do but there is a huge difference in these two needs.
I wonder how these pharma company execs can sleep at night. My favorite hyped up commercial i see on television is the "lashes not long enough" and they have a made up disease name for it. Give us your two cents on disease branding at
