Cocaine in your drinking water? Hmmm. To filter or to concentrate?
This report came in today saying that there is now cocaine traces in British drinking water.

Episode: 002 Water Filtration – 2nd Post
This part 2 titled “Filtration” is from a three part series on hydration, filtration, and ionization. This was recorded Monday March 10th, 2014 the day after the Natural Products Expo in Anaheim, CA March 7th through the 9th where we had a booth in the “Next” pavillion on the 3rd floor.
Claims, claims, claims.

Is this your daily drink? Think before you drink. Orange Juice = Obesity

Installing a faucet in a granite kitchen benchtop
Granite counters create instant impact in a kitchen or bathroom. The solid stone looks and feels expensive. If you are installing your own granite counter, and if you are using an undermount sink, you will need to drill the faucet holes in the granite counter prior to installing the faucet. Typically, the style of faucet […]
Too expensive?
My business Guru, Seth Godin, talked today about value of things. He used this example: ” A $400 bottle of water is too expensive to just about everyone, even to people with more than $500 in the bank. They have the cash, but they sure don’t want to spend it, not on something they think […]
