Finding The Best Water For Your Fish Tanks and Aquariums
By :
Anthony Sastre
Many fish keepers believe that if the water is not green or brown, fish can exist in it. People may get this mistaken belief from the fact that natural areas of water can periodically look polluted, yet fish thrive there. Nevertheless, natural areas of water have their own processes for providing fish the conditions they need while ridding harmful substances. Your tap water may be nontoxic to drink, but it is not nontoxic for fish to exist in. Tap water has chlorine, iron, and possibly small portions of lead and copper. Tap water can also be too hard or soft for your fish, or consist of an abnormal pH. Luckily there are options to make your tap water appropriate for a fish aquarium, including other water selections.

By :
Susan Thixton.
The Harvard Center for Risk Analysis looked at the risk to U.S. citizens of mad cow disease in 2001 and again in 2003. The Harvard report determined the risk to be very low to humans. The study felt that as long as the FDA and USDA continued with current restrictions to processing 'at risk' meat materials into human food, and with current restrictions to processing 'at risk' animal material into animal feed of ruminants (cattle, sheep, pigs), the risk to humans would remain low. Unfortunately, it is a different story for our pets. Current regulations allow 'at risk' materials to be processed into pet food and it is a very common practice.

By :
Linda Cain.
The bicycle -- what a wonderful, freeing mode of transportation. The first bicycle was invented in Europe in the nineteenth century, and today it is the world's most popular vehicle. The bicycle allowed travel that is 3 times more energy efficient than walking, and 3-4 times as fast as walking. Bicycles and horse buggies were the two mainstays of private transportation just prior to the invention of the automobile, and the grading of smooth roads in the late 19th century was stimulated by the wide use of these devices. Bicycles are a pragmatic, functional, and efficient component of a healthy urban transportation system. They are simple and elegant machines that attract just about every kid of all ages, from 2 to 92. Bicycling has many health benefits and does not directly contribute to global warming or environmental pollution. It is a wonderful sport that brings health and joy to millions of people everywhere.
