...Mint Hand Sanitizing Spray by Teens Turning Green is my fave for on-the-go Incidents of Germ - and not just because it supports a national coalition of teens trying to inspire earth-friendly choices. Even with a 62% organic alcohol content, the herb-garden smell of the spritz rocks - and I especially dig the pocket-sized spray-bottle format. It's perfectly portable, creates little waste and one spray (the bottle contains 100) is good for both palms. How's that for conservation? Price: $3.99; available exclusively at Whole Foods Market...
Without oxytocin people would be far less inclined to seek social interaction, let alone fall in love and mate for life (or, as scientists call it, "pair bond"). The brain releases gobs of it during orgasm, mothers are awash in it during breastfeeding and, in clinical trials, a spritz of oxytocin has been shown to reduce anxiety, increase feelings of generosity and even ease the symptoms of shyness. Conversely, researchers are beginning to discover that low levels of the hormone - or the body's faulty response to it - may contribute to severe social dysfunctions like depression and autism...

But I'm convinced that the environmental movement is less about making sure we humans can continue to do important things like fly and drive and spritz ourselves with cans of Evian and more of an excuse to advocate an anticonsumerist, antiglobalization, anti-good-smelling-kitchen agenda. People were living in communes, crocheting their own Rasta hats and conserving office electricity by not getting a job long before they knew it was preventing global warming...
...nonalcoholic drink by converting the sugar that normally becomes alcohol into nonalcoholic gluconic acid. And because the acid strengthened the taste of sugar, Leipold only needed a fraction of the sugar found in a normal soft drink. Then came the flavors - elderberry, lychee, orange-ginger and herb - plus a spritz of carbonation...
Robin Williams is a dangerous guy. Or maybe he and the people who make his movies just think he?s a dangerous guy. There is an unwillingness to just let him rear back and spritz for the length of a movie - as if they fear we, in the audience, will grow tired of his gift, often amounting a form of genius, for surrealistic free-association. They are always giving us, as writer-director Barry Levinson does in Man of the Year, tastes and tidbits of Williams in full cry, the while looking for calming cutaways, subplots and diversions that will...
