Natural Spring Plastic
What are you paying for when you buy bottled water The image of pristine glaciers and crystal clear springs comes to mind. But the truth is, bottled water is hardly ever purer, healthier, or safter than tap water. Ironically, bottled water is often just tap water in a bottle.

It was close to a hazardous waste dump and was sporadically tested with industrial chemical levels above Food and Drug Administration standards.

Wrapping Up the Cigar Boom
At age 98, the infamous cigar aficionado George Burns said, "If I had taken my doctors advice and quit smoking when he advised me to, I wouldnt have lived to go to his funeral." While its tempting for us to use Mr. Burns as the poster-child for the anti-anti-smoking movement which is gaining little ground against anti-smoking legislation in the United States, we would be hard-pressed to answer why the honor shouldnt go to Mark Twain, Peter Falk, Sigmund Freud "Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar" or Rudy Giuliani. As more and more restaurants find themselves under regulation to prohibit smoking and many of the cigar bars from the last decade close their doors, it seems that todays cigar smoker is a bit lonely.

Chosing Organic for HealthWe come from a society where growing organic and just growing produce and livestock for food was once one and the same. Small, family farms still grow their own food using traditional methods passed down through the generations. As commercial farming became big-business, however, growers and farmers started to investigate methods of increasing crops and building bigger livestock in order to increase their profits. This led to increased use of pesticides and drugs to enhance yield.
