Keep Cancer Out of Your Home

June 18th, 2011 - Men's Health - Dana Leigh Smith

The government recently added eight chemicals to its official list of cancer-causing compounds and potential carcinogens.
 
Formaldehyde (a chemical used to produce pressed wood household furniture and other construction materials) and styrene (found in cigarette smoke and used to Styrofoam cups) were among the additions. Formaldehyde is now officially listed as a carcinogen; styrene is on the list of things "reasonably anticipated" to be so. The Report on Carcinogens now includes 240 compounds.
 
But how much should you worry? After all, there's a big difference between factory workers exposed to formaldehyde every day and the average person, right?
 
"I'm not overly concerned about exposure to either chemical," says Otis Webb Brawley, M.D., chief medical officer and executive vice president of the American Cancer Society. "Forty years of research has told us that formaldehyde does cause some cancers, but it's not a big cause of cancer. If it was a big cause like cigarettes, it would have been inherently obvious 40 years ago when we first started looking." 

The construction and the textile-industry workers who are hands-on with the chemical every day should to be the most concerned since they are exposed to higher concentrations of the chemical, says Brawley. Recent human studies following thousands of field workers showed that regular exposure to formaldehyde increases the risk of lymphoma and brain cancer.
 
That said, keeping formaldehyde out of your home is not simple to do. "Formaldehyde is found almost everywhere, making it hard to stay away from, and I wouldn't go to extremes trying to avoid it," says Brawley. "But I would try and reduce risk as much as possible."
 
Here are a few strategies suggested by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and Dr. Brawley to reduce formaldehyde and styrene exposure:
 
New furniture? Air it out. Inexpensive furniture made from particleboard and pressed wood is glued together using a formaldehyde-based adhesive. If you recently bought a new piece of furniture containing formaldehyde, keep the windows open for the first week--or as long as you detect a chemical odor—to let the fumes escape, Brawley says. "As particle board or plywood ages over time, it stops giving off formaldehyde."
 
Turn on the Dehumidifier. Heat and humidity can cause formaldehyde to seep out of home-construction materials.
 
Avoid Smoke. Smokers and those around them are exposed to the highest levels of styrene.
 
One thing you don't need to worry about: Styrofoam cups. While styrene can cause cancer, Styrofoam and other products made with the chemical don't, says Brawley.
Take Action:
  • Boycott advertisers of Glenn Beck's radio show and his quest spots on Fox News. Glenn Beck is anti-gay rights. Update: Boycott Successful: Update 4/7/2011: Beck has been fired by FOX NEWS! Radio stations dropping Beck as well in several locations. Now, tell FOX to stop having Beck as a Guest.
  • Update: DADT has been repealed. President Obama has kept his promise!
  • Boycott Bill O'Reilly and FOX News and their advertisers. Bill discussed a French commercial by McDonalds that was meant to show that McDonalds is Gay Friendly. Bill said what is next? Is McDonalds going to be Al-Qaida friendly as well? Imagine - Bill O'Reilly compares Gays to Al-Qaida!
  • Boycott Arizona the home of "hater" - U.S. Senator John McCain. Arizona's Hateful anti-Immigration Law - encourages racial profiling and increases hatred towards minorities. A remedy: Demand Republicans to support Immigration Reform (The Dream Act). Further, Senator McCain voted against ending DADT and Blocked Immigration reform!
  • Boycott Target, Best Buy, Gold's Gym - for donating money towards anti-gay political candidates/organizations. Update: (12/26/2010): Target is continuing to donate to anti-gay groups/causes/politicians. Update 03/08/11 - Lady Gaga Ends Target Partnership, Reportedly Over Target's Poor LGBT Stance. Update 3/25/2010 - Target displays their hypocrisy and Sues California Gay Rights Group for Lobbying Outside Stores. Target is attempting to block the LGBT right of free speech! STOP SHOPPING AT TARGET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Update 4/8/2011: Target lost it's case to stop the LGBT from canvassing in front of their stores. A huge PR Disaster for TARGET! Perhaps Target should go out of business as they betrayed their investers and customer base. Target contributed massive funds to a politician who would like to exterminate gays. Now, Target can not stop us from Boycotting them, nor picketing, nor talking to customers near their stores; although, Target allows a anti-gay company such as the Salvation Army to stand outside their door and speak with customers and raise money. Isn't this a double standard?
  • End DOMA (Defense of Marriage Act). Prevents Federal employees and Gays in the Military from gaining equal benefits. Prevents Gay Partners from gaining equal benefits.
  • Pass ENDA (Employee Non-Discrimination Act). ENDA would prevent employment discrimination of LGBT workforce.
  • Boycott Salvation Army as they will not hire Gays! "DO NOT DONATE TO THEM."
  • BOYCOTT "Chick-fil-a" for donating to anti-gay marriage groups.
  • BOYCOTT KOCH INDUSTRIES PRODUCTS- to include their products: Angel Soft toilet paper / Brawny paper towels / Dixie plates, bowls, napkins & cups / Mardi Gras napkins and towels / Quilted Northern toilet paper / Soft 'n Gentle toilet paper / Sparkle napkins / Vanity fair napkins / Zee napkins / Georgia-Pacific paper products & envelopes / All Georgia-Pacific lumber & building products (INVISTA Products) / Lycra / Stainmaster Carpet. The billionaire - Koch brothers are ultra republican - tea bag founders/supporters that do not support causes of the LGBT community.
  • Boycott WALMART - The National Gay and Lesbian Task Force, force criticized Wal-Mart for denying employee benefits to same-s-x partners and for failing to prohibit discrimination based on gender identity. By comparison, the group said two other chain stores with a strong presence in New York, Costco and Walgreens, did much better.
  • Remember David Kato, Gay activist - Uganda, who was slain because he is gay!
  • NEW: "Tune Out Trump", Boycott all Trump Hotel, casinos, holdings, The Apprentice and NBC Network! At CPAC, Trump said he is considering a run for president as a Republican. In a interview with the Des Moines Register, Trump added that he opposes all forms of legal recognition for gay couples, not just marriage. "They should not be able to marry," he said. So why does NBC keep the Apprentice when Donald Trump has stated he may run for president? After making racist remarks about Obama and recv'g public backlash, Trump decided not to run for president after NBC renewed his awful TV Show. How can NBC re-new the clown's show after he pulled such hateful shenanigans? Boycott NBC! Boycott advertisers of The Apprentice and Trump's other business's. Don't shop at any bullding with Donald Trump's name to include Trump Hotels, Casinos, Condo's, Offices, Shops! The Donald has expressed extreme Hatred towards gays and blacks with his birther remarks and anti-gay rhetoric. Remember how poorly Trump treated Rosie O'Donnel? Now we know why he did that! It was hate against a lesbian as we now know he is biget. Unforgiveable! Again, Dump NBC because they air/re-newed Donald Trump's "The Apprentice"! Now the Donald Claims the Long Form Birth certificate is a fraud. And NBC keeps this guy?

Jared Polis Defends Obama's LGBT Record
Elise Foleyelise - Huffington Post - 06/18/11

MINNEAPOLIS -- After heated criticism of President Barack Obama on gay issues at Netroots Nation, openly gay Congressman Jared Polis defended Obama on Saturday, calling him "the best president this country has ever had on LGBT issues."

"[Gay Americans] have never had anything close to this much of an advocate in the White House in the United States," the Colorado Democrat told HuffPost.

Obama's record on gay rights has been under fire at Netroots Nation, a progressive conference being held this year in Minnesota. Some progressives have said he is too weak on LGBT issues.

But Polis pointed out that the president made two major steps forward: Obama signed into law a repeal of the Don't Ask, Don't Tell policy that barred gays from the military and announced that his administration would no longer defend the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA), a law requiring marriage to be between a man and a woman.

"We were ultimately successful [at ending Don't Ask, Don't Tell], and the president's steadfast support of ending the policy the whole way through was very helpful in that regard," Polis said. "I think he also deserves strong accolades for his decision not to appeal the DOMA case. That's really a landmark decision, it's been very rare in the annals of history."

In particular, Obama was criticized at Netroots for his "evolving" position on gay marriage. In 1996, the president told Outlines newspaper he favored "legalizing same-sex marriage and would fight efforts to prohibit such marriages," but he has since said he supports civil unions, not gay marriage.

When White House Communications Director Dan Pfeiffer was asked about the contradiction at a Friday session, he said the answers on the 1996 questionnaire were not from Obama.

"If you actually go back and look, that questionnaire was actually filled out by someone else -- not the president. There was a long debate about this in the campaign," Pfeiffer told Daily Kos' Kaili Joy Gray on stage at Netroots. "This was litigated in the campaign."

Polis, who did not attend the panel, said he heard it was "contentious." But he said the president has made major progress on gay issues and is likely to evolve further.

"He has alluded to the fact that, like many Americans, he's on a personal journey of transformation with regard to how he views gay marriage," Polis said. "I'm confident he'll end up in the right area eventually."
Every gay and lesbian person who has been lucky enough to survive the turmoil of growing up is a survivor. Survivors always have an obligation to those who will face the same challenges."
