For patients with breast cancer, it's important to know which stage of the disease they have.

First U.S. Station Goes "All Christmas"

It's Christmas in October, at least for one radio station in New Jersey.

WEZW (93.1 FM), also known as "Easy 93.1" in Wilwood Crest, New Jersey has just become the first broadcast station in the country to begin programming all-holiday music, 24/7.

Station owner Gary Fisher of Equity Comm. likes being first in the Santa music game, notes Tom Taylor of the trade publication Radio-info.com. Last year it was one of his urban stations and this year it's an "adult contemporary" station.

WEZW can't be heard in the New York area, where WPAT-FM has the 93.1 FM frequency, but it can be heard on the web at www.Easy931.com.

Fisher has a place on the station website for listeners to vote for their favorites and thus help program the station.

The website also has a Christmas countdown clock, which now stands around 67 days, for those who would like to start feeling the shopping and other holiday pressures as soon as possible.

Roger Goodell Says NFL Goes "Pink" in October

Look for pink accents to NFL uniforms and pink gear in October.  Commissioner Goodell outlines it in this letter.

To NFL Fans:

On behalf of the National Football League, please join us in supporting the NFL’s “A Crucial Catch” campaign in October for National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. This is the third season in which NFL teams, coaches, officials and players will wear pink in recognition of the fight against breast cancer.

Just about everyone knows someone who has been affected by breast cancer. That is why the NFL is proud to join thousands of others committed to fighting this terrible disease.

Throughout October, all NFL teams will celebrate survivors, visit patients at hospitals and turn their stadiums pink to show our enduring support. Alongside our partners at the American Cancer Society, we will emphasize the importance of prevention by encouraging all women over the age of 40 to get a yearly mammogram. We know that annual screenings can, and do, save lives.

Thanks to the passion of NFL fans, we have the collective strength as a league to connect with millions of people and make a positive difference. Please support the American Cancer Society's programs to help people stay well, get well, and find a cure. We can fight back against a disease that has taken far too much from too many for too long.

There are several ways you can participate in “A Crucial Catch.” Visit nfl.com/pink for the resources and tools you can use to get involved.

An annual screening saves lives. Let’s spread the word.

Roger Goodell
