For marriages that occurred in the 1950s through the 1970s, the figures clearly show that the probability of divorce before each anniversary rose for each successive marriage cohort. For first marriages that occurred in the 1980s, the proportion that had dissolved by each anniversary was consistently lower and it is lower again for marriages that occurred in the 1990s."

		The Badvertising Institute * Welcome ^Votes:0 "People believe what they see. If what they're seeing is seducing them into a deadly addiction, then we need to counter the seduction and reverse what they see. In other words, fight fire with fire, images with images! " Bonnie Vierthaler, founder of The BADvertising Institute Here in BADvertising Country we counter the seduction of dishonest tobacco advertising by doctoring-up tobacco ads to make them honest. By juxtaposing funny, gross and disgusting images on top of deceitful ads, we jolt people into realizing how tobacco ads are concealing the truth about smoking. We show how they seduce young people into addiction to tobacco, and dupe the rest of society into dependence on tobacco money. Artist Bonnie Vierthaler has done over 70 of these honest ads.

		Welcome to the Rebuttal from Uranus ^Votes:0 The Rebuttal From Uranus This page is exclusively for the critical review and analysis of the enormously popular (as puzzling as that may be) self-help book Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus: A Practical Guide for Improving Communication and Getting What You Want in Your Relationships (New York: HarperCollins, 1992). Despite its promotional hype, at its very core it is a sexist, patronizing, male-centered invective which does little more than perpetuate long-held negative gender stereotypes. Infomercials, popular magazines, the existence of a WWW site, television appearances and published spin-offs by the author, John Gray, have made this book appear undisputed in its broad claim to improve communication between men and women. Unassailable it is not and thus there is a very sincere n Read More Go to Site
