So, with this particular cancer, the survival gap may well be attributed to sociocultural differences in sexual habits, says Brawley, who wrote an editorial accompanying the study.

Wednesday's enormous, killer blasts shattered more than ministry buildings in Baghdad. It also tore the tenuous hope that the country had come to a workable calm. The emerging details of the plot only infuriated a populace already outraged at a government that seems to have lost control of a security situation so soon after crowing nationalistically that it was back in charge as U.S. troops began their withdrawal...
