Is My Fireplace Safe?

We've had fireplaces in our homes for years. Before there was heat from the furnace, we may have used fire to stay warm. But can that fireplace become toxic?

"Every log you light up emits a cocktail of chemicals" says Larry Brockman at the EPA. He's referring to real wood, how about those starter logs filled with even more chemicals?

Don't forget, if the chimney is filled with a lot of creosote, the amount of chemical exposure can be greater. My advice, since a warm fire can be very nice on a cold day, get this chimneys cleaned and checked out periodically to ensure for most smoke and toxins to travel up and out the chimney like they're supposed to.

Travel Pillow vs. Neck Pillow

What is the difference between a travel pillow and a neck pillow. Technically a "travel pillow" is a U-shaped pillow that you use on a plane, bus, car, or train. It's more for sitting up sleeping. Where as a true neck pillow is for normal sleeping - that's laying down. It will have a neck roll to maintain the neck curve; it will also keep the spine level when you're on you side.

The travel pillows are really needed in the plane, not only because sleeping really helps pass the time but those plane seats tend to push the head forward. You almost really feel like you need that neck roll for your neck pillow at night to restore your posture.
