Think Twice Before You Hookah Up

May 02, 2007 02:35 PM ET | Alison Go | Permanent Link | Print

Mint hookah may taste so fresh and so clean, but lung doctors—who are concerned about its increasing popularity with college students—are starting to dish the dirt on the tasty tobacco. The Daily Aztec at San Diego State University reports that a standard "head" of hookah tobacco has nicotine levels comparable to 70 cigarettes' worth and that smoking a hookah for 45 minutes is worse than smoking 21 cigarettes.

hookahs

I think greater national attention should be put on this issue. There are plenty of young adults who are spending nights in these smoke screened saloons.

If the media can cover so-called events like michael vick, paris hilton, michael wacko jackson and brittany spears for long periods of time, they should certainly cover the dangers of hookahs and the long term effects it will have on our kids.

It's another hidden treasure and a victory for big tobacco companies...

greetings

Greetings.

Greetings to you and your family in the name of God,in my search for a reliable and God fearing person and having gotten your contact through prayers and pains taking efforts via searching i made on the internet on my bed side. Presently, I'm in a hospital where I have been undergoing treatment for Oesophagi Cancer .

Though its a sad and long story but I will cut it short for your quick and easy understanding. I am Judith Bruno (Mrs), widow to Late Mr. Edward Bruno, former Defence attachee to Benin Embassy in Greece. My husband was murdered alonside our only son Elvis by those who are envious of his position in the same office.

Before his death he made a vow to use his wealth for the down trodden,orphanages and the less privileged in the society. Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to an individual or better still a God fearing person who will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct here in. I want an individual that will use this fund and provide succor to poor and indigent persons, orphanages, and widows and for the propagating peace.

I took this decision because I do not have any child that will inherit this money and my husband relatives are not inclined to helping poor persons and I do not want my husband's hard earned money to be misused or spent in the manner in which my late husband did not specify. I do not want a situation where this money will be used in an ungodly manner.

please send me the following information

1: YOUR NAME: ========

2: YOUR ADDRESS:======

3: YOUR PHONE NO: =====

4: YOUR FAX NO:=======

5: YOUR OCCUPATION====

What is required of you is your honesty, trust and sincerity. Any delay in your reply will give me room in sourcing for another individual for this same purpose.

May God Almighty bless you.

Judith Bruno (Mrs) email osita4real@hotmail.fr
