Tobacco Updates


 tocacco

In these articles, they are telling people how the soluble tobacco products may reduce the risk to health than smoking cigarettes. It has the potential to increase the total number of smokers. Cigarette smokers face a tax increase, growing health problems, smoking bans, and public condemnation. The Public health groups are arguing that excluding tobacco from trade agreements will help the worldwide campaign to reduce smoking. Lawmakers and farmers claim that the ban on tobacco can lead to economic losses to Kentucky and other states. Diseases from smoking kill about 440,000 Americans a year. Worldwide, tobacco kills five million people each year. The concern about excluding tobacco trade agreement negotiations masks a big problem. The health organizations are urging the Obama administration in the fight with the federal court decision blocking the graphic warnings from appearing on cigarette packs.

In this article, they state that a toddler has been kicked off a plane, who was scared and wanted to be held by her mother. This family was traveling from Rhode Island to Boston.

The station reported that when the family finally got her to sit, security appeared with a JetBlue representative. Although the people around them and the security were sympathetic to this situation, the pilot was not. One of the flight attendant told them the plane would be pulling back to the gate.

Police found dead twins

PHOTO: Patricia and Joan Miller died in the same house within a short while of each other. Police ruled out foul play and said the sisters died of natural causes.
In this article, they are saying that the police have located the family of reclusive twin sisters who were found dead in their home in California, last month. This had taken eleven days and the help of dozens of strangers to find these two girls. They live for nearly forty years in South Lake Tahoe but often shunned their neighbors. Their shared life had ended in a mysterious double death. The police say that they found one sister in a bedroom and the other one in a hallway during a routine welfare check. They were 73 years old. The police usually don’t release the names of the dead without informing their relatives, to ask permission too. They had such little information about these twins’ personal lives to work from. The investigators issued a public plea this week asking for help in notifying the sisters' next kin. They sent out emails and phone calls to find help of amateur genealogists who read media accounts of the sisters' deaths. The investigators tracked down a first cousin and two second cousins late this Wednesday. The cousins say that they haven't heard from the sisters in years. They said that they lost contact with them once other family members started passing away. These sisters had a different last name then the rest of the family, which is why the police had such a hard time finding their family members. This puzzle is far from solved. They are still investigating them on how they died.
