Cigarette selling within 100 m from schools AGAINST THE LAW
Jeremy Fisher – Cigarette – The Ark, Ann Arbor
I have come across over a couple of things about celebrities smoking cigarettes that can be categorized neither as absurd nor as strange. They are not even funny, though. Fine, here we go.
1. There are celebrities, especially movie stars, that smokes on screen like they are addicted but aren’t in actual place.
2. Smoking celebrities, sometimes sports stars, endorse cigarettes very rarely, if ever; but they are declared smokers in their private lives with some needing to have a drag in between shots.
3. Celebrities raising their voices in support of smoking cessation movements of course draw big attention but are rarely taken seriously.
4. Celebrity smoking influences adolescents to follow suit. Youngsters want to replicate their demigods.
5. Celebrities of the bygone era have remote chances of having picked up the habit watching their heroes.
Well, these are just some of my gibberish talks that I guess might have crossed everyone’s minds. But is it true that celebrities really desist from endorsing cigarettes of all hues? Is it because they are conscious of their social responsibilities? Of course, I, for one, want to believe this line. Pictures of celebrities smoking appear glamorous and civilized, regardless of the context of the scene in a movie and thus it strikes a cord with teens. They are shown at parties with a cigarette which pushes young people to emulate them. The brands they smoke, cheap Marlboro cigarettes, Camel, Winston, Virginia Slims, Salem etc, become a point of campus discussion.
There are two prominent websites dedicated to smoking celebrities; rather one is a yahoo group. These are definitely not promoted by any of them but their fans who also are into smoking. These two sites list smoking stars from real life and on screen. The website I stumbled upon is on female celebrities who chain smoke on screen. You get a blow by blow account of ‘when and what’ they smoke and in which movie! Wow, so much to that!
How does it all relate to the rest of us? After all, we only get to see one face of them, enjoying a good smoke. Do we come to know of their efforts to keep fit or do we know that not many of them are smokers at all? Well, do you want to emulate them – then ponder these points, too.
1. Can you afford 40-60 Marlboro cigarettes a day if you don’t buy them from a tax free online store or a discount sale?
2. Cheap cigarettes at discount price may be an option but is it a license to smoke more?
3. Many celebrities only smoke socially; they just don’t like to be left out because they don’t smoke.
4. Celebrities can easily afford high cost healthcare, just in case.
Neither cheap discount cigarettes of reputed brands nor generics bought at cheap price tobacco shop can be castigated as being cheap quality. Most of these generics and branded cheap cigarettes are regulated in their respective countries of manufacture and because of price and tax difference between your and origination country that they become cheap. Cheap Marlboro cigarettes, however guaranteed they are, are not your insurance to smoke more. Neither menthol nor Lm falls into the category, for that matter. The bottom line is here: celebrity endorsement or not, cheap or not, cigarettes are always known to give smokers a momentary relief but a long time trouble.

Anyone know cameras?
I’m going to take a course on photography and I’m looking for a certain type of camera. I saw one at Walmart that I like (although I don’t like walmart). It’s a digital camera, but it has the place to put regular film in, also. Before I buy this camera, I need to know if there’s a better camera I could buy. My limit is $200 (I know, cheap). I’m not into those little bitty cigarette pack-sized cameras. I need something sturdy but reliable with the option of removable lens. I’ve contacted every local photographer and they were absolutely no help. It would be awesome if someone with photography experience could help me on this!
I keep wondering what camera you saw in WallyWorld that shoots film as well as digital. I have to believe you are mistaken about that. There was a Kodak APS film camera that showed you the picture on the back screen, but that was review only, the image was only recorded on film. Hassy makes a medium format camera with an interchangeable digital back, needless to say, you won’t be finding something like that at a regular retailer,
No $200 digicam will have interchangeable lenses. You have to have an SLR for that. You can get a Nikon D40 with the kit lens for about $600 at B & H Photo. Or you can visit www.keh.com to look for a used camera.
If you can use a film camera, they are abundant and cheap, you can get a great used film SLR for pennies on the dollar. Or a new Canon film Rebel for under $200 at WalMart
Go to www.dpreview.com or www.stevesdigicams.com to research different cameras by features, specs, and see reviews.
Good luck!

If you are a smoker you are aware cigarette prices have increased drastically over the past several months. It’s now impossible to find tobacco for cheap. Tobacco, already taxed substantially higher than most consumer goods, is the governments fattest, new ‘cash cow!’ They tell us, “It’s for your own good; if the price goes up, you’ll quit smoking…” But the truth is, they know that most people will not (or can’t) quit. It’s all about money. Many hundreds of millions of dollars! The real reason for the big tax increase is to generate cash to help pay for the bailouts and deficits. Many states have also recently increased tobacco taxes to produce additional revenues. In most places, tobacco is now priced so high the average wage-earner cannot afford to smoke or chew anymore. However, history tells us most will continue to use tobacco, some how, some way, usually by cutting down on other purchases, sometimes even the necessities.
I ran across this quote, attributed to Napoleon III, back in the 1800’s:
“This vice brings in one hundred million francs in taxes every year.
I will certainly forbid it at once – as soon as you can name a virtue that brings in as much revenue.”
- Napoleon III, (1808-73) French emperor, his reply when asked to ban smoking.
–Bloomsbury book of quotations
It just goes to show, “the more things change, the more they remain the same!”
You may have not have actually thought it through before, but if you purchase about a carton of cigarettes per week, and pay around $30, you are spending more than $1500 per year on smokes. Does your spouse/significant other also smoke? Then you can double that figure. In many parts of the country, cartons cost $40, $50, or even more. Math was always my worst subject, so I’ll let you figure out your own numbers. I think you’ll be shocked when you tally it up. I’m sure you now understand, there is no longer such thing as tobacco for cheap.
So, you still want to know how to get tobacco for cheap? How about practically free!
Maybe it’s time to consider growing your own tobacco for cheap, at home. Tobacco is actually easy to grow. It’s care and culture is similar to tomatoes, and just about anybody can grow tomatoes, right? We often think of tobacco as being a southern crop, however it can be successfully grown in most climates, including Alaska with some preparation and care..
If you have several square yards of space in your front or back yard, or even an apartment balcony, it is possible to grow your own tobacco for cheap, real cheap!
You may ask, “Is it legal?” Yes! It is legal in all 50 states in the U.S., as well as most countries in the world, to grow tobacco for personal use. Many states and countries do not allow you to sell your tobacco; it’s for personal use only. However there may be some areas where you can sell small amounts. Check your local laws regarding the selling of your homegrown tobacco for cheap.
In addition to getting tobacco for cheap, there is another very important benefit to growing your own. Commercial manufacturers add other substances to cigarettes. They no longer consist of just paper, tobacco and a filter. There are nearly 600 additives used in cigarettes, some of which are known carcinogens. Others are themselves addictive, or increase the addiction level of the tobacco. We all know that tobacco isn’t good for us. However, many researchers believe the additives in cigarettes exponentially increase the health risks of smoking.
Think about it. Tobacco for cheap! No more costly packs of cigarettes, cigars or chew. You can now do it yourself, avoid the insane taxes, and save a boatload of money, while growing your own top quality, additive-free tobacco.

Short cigar clip 2
Cigars were brought along during our first road trip through the American West. Our travel buddies were cigar smokers who, inspired by Clint Eastwood in “The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly,” brought cigarillos along during our sojourn across the Mohave Desert. At night we camped out, and the cigars were companion accessories to the setting of cold nights out around the fire with the endless sky lit by a melee of diamond stars and surrounded by crisp, dry air delicately scented by the aroma of premium cigar smoke.
The American West has a great tradition of cigar consumption in the old saloons and on cattle drives. From the turn of the 19th century when cattle and railroad barons played poker and spun deals in St. Louis and San Francisco, to the turn of the 20th century when industrial giants like Henry Ford, J.P. Getty and Andrew Carnegie found themselves influencing the century that would see two world wars. The cigar was a companion in smoke-filled rooms and at secret poker tables. There was always a cigar-smoking gambler or two on stage coaches heading west, and after that aboard club cars on transcontinental trains from New York to Chicago to California. Cigars do indeed have a travel history in the American West.
“Cigar store Indians,” originally designed as plaques and statues representing Native Americans, became the symbol of tobacco and tobacco advertising during the early 19th and 20th centuries. These statues and plaques were most often used in stores, hotels and outside restaurants and bars to signal (often illiterate customers) the availability of tobacco, or that smoking was permitted inside the establishment. The complete, life-sized figures of “American Indians” were generally used by tobacco-shop owners, with smaller plaques used in general stores.
Images of Native Americans became connected with the sale of tobacco after American Indians introduced the plant to the Europeans who explored and settled in the Americas. Cigar store Indian statues first appeared in Europe, once tobacco was available there. The wooden carvings were based on images created by artists who matched descriptions, rather than first-hand viewings of actual Native Americans. The figures, which most often ended up looking like Europeans in Native American dress, were clothed in fringed buckskins, were draped in blankets and wore feathered headdresses. They did not actually resemble the members of any particular tribe. The sculptors carved chiefs, braves, princesses and maidens, sometimes with papooses. Most of the figures grasped tobacco or cigars in their hands or displayed leaves on their clothing. There were several artists in the United States who specialized in carving ship figureheads, architectural details and portrait busts, then turned to creating figures of American Indians full-time as demand increased. Names of note in this genre of carving are John Cromwell, Thomas Brooks, the Skillin family, and Samuel Robb, who operated studios in Northeastern cities and put out product catalogues.
Modern times have called for the image of the cigar store Indian to all but disappear, but the Native American will always be remembered as the source of our fine tobacco. When the occasion calls for a fine cigar, enjoy one–especially if you’re under western skies.
