I really loved it when Rickey Smiley was on there. He was my favorite host. They had a episode of Rickey Smiley and I taped it and it had me laughin all night. I think Comic View is really funny, but sometimes they get too into things but it's ok other than that.
By Niraj Chokshi By Niraj Chokshi November 11, 2014. As the nation celebrates its veterans on Tuesday, it makes sense to take a look at who those veterans are. As of the end of September, there were nearly 22 million veterans living in the United States, according to Department of Veterans Affairs estimates. But the population in each states is different. Some statesâ veterans are older, some are younger.
Nearly one in four Veterans receiving care from VA has diabetes. This is partly attributable to the older average age of Veterans compared to the general US population. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimate that nearly 26 million people, or about 8 percent of the US population, have diabetes. That includes about 11 million persons 65 and older, or about 27 percent of seniors. In the United States, about one-in-four persons with diabetes are not aware that they have the condition. While exact numbers are not available, it is likely that the number is lower for Veterans receiving regular VA primary care. However, many Veterans of all ages are at risk for diabetes because of the high rate of obesity and those who are overweight, estimated at over 70 percent of Veterans receiving VA care.
