Do pregnant mothers who smoke cigarettes affect the baby?
It isn't like you're out of the woods once you get that plus sign on the pregnancy test. The stakes get even higher then. Smoking pregnant can boost the risk of miscarriage, and can negatively effect fetal development, such as slowing the baby's growth rate. In addition, writes John Martin for Fertility Neighborhood, smoking pregnant can cause blood vessels in the uterus and placenta to narrow, and can negatively affect the blood pressure and heart rate of both the mother and developing fetus.
"Smoking pregnant … causes considerable damage to the fetus and to the infant during the initial growth phase," said Knut-Olaf Haustein, MD, with the Institute for Nicotine Research and Smoking. "A smoking mother puts her child at considerable risk, not only of higher incidence of miscarriage, premature ablatio placentae (premature separation of the placenta from the uterine wall prior to delivery), and reduced weight at birth, but also of deformities." source: http://www.conceivingconcepts.com/learning/articles/smoking.html

studio cigarettes cartonHow many chemicals in cigarette smoke cause lung cancer?
theres100 different chemicals in your cigarettes,out of 100 which is 52 chemicals which causes cancer tar you can imagine the rest
********
The honest answer is that they have no idea, just as they have no idea which chemicals in the food we eat, the 'fresh air' we breathe, the water we drink or the radiation from the sun, mobile phones, etc. cause not only lung cancer but all types of cancer.
They can make an guess from results of epidemiological studies and tests on mice, rats, dogs (try Googling "Beagles Lung Cancer" to see the barbaric cruelty they inflicted to attempt to prove the link between smoking and lung cancer), monkeys, pigs, etc.
A list of carginogens is maintained by IARC (part of the WHO). It includes solar radiation (sunshine), Talcum powder, Vitamin K, caffeine and mobile phones!
Are cigarette boxes recyclable?
I believe they are but you have to remove the foil insde and the plastic packaging on the outside.
The reason why I am at this website right now is I was looking for the same answers in Google, as our local recycle lorry man has just took a picture of one of our recycle boxes then put it back down without emptying it.
Hope this helps,
Chad.
How many grams of tobacco are there in 25 cigarettes?
The amount of tobacco in a cigarette can vary, but on average, a single cigarette contains about 0.7 to 1 gram of tobacco. Therefore, in 25 cigarettes, there would typically be between 17.5 to 25 grams of tobacco. This can vary based on the brand and type of cigarette.
How many cartons of cigarettes can a person have crossing the state line?
I have searched all over for this, and found the following (NY CG-15):
The cigarette use tax imposed pursuant to Tax Law section 471a must be paid by any person who uses (i.e., possesses, stores, retains, imports, etc.) cigarettes in the state, not including possession for sale, on which the cigarette tax has not been paid and where the use of the cigarettes is not exempt from Tax Law Article 20.
Exemptions:
The applicable New York State use tax, New York City use tax, or
combined state and city use taxes are imposed on cigarettes used in the
state or within the state and New York City, unless:
- the cigarette tax (imposed pursuant to Tax Law, section 471) has
been paid, as evidenced by the presence of the New York State
or New York State and New York City joint tax stamp affixed to the
package of cigarettes; or
- the cigarettes being used are specifically exempted from the
cigarette tax by Tax Law section 471 (governmental use by the
United States, New York State, and the United Nations, and use by
authorized persons purchasing from a voluntary unincorporated
organization of the armed forces of the U.S.); or
- the cigarettes being used are brought into New York State (or into
New York State and New York City) on or in the possession of the
user, and the number of cigarettes does not exceed 400 (i.e., two
cartons or less of standard packages of cigarettes).
Notes: Cigarettes shipped into New York State by mail are not brought
into the state on or in the possession of the user, and therefore do not
qualify for the last exemption.
If more than 400 cigarettes are brought into New York State (or into
New York State and New York City), then all of the cigarettes are subject
to tax(es).
Cigarettes acquired by an individual to be given as a gift to another
individual are not exempt because the law does not exempt gifts of
cigarettes.
For additional information, see TSB-M-03(1)M, Enforcement Provisions
Regarding the Sale, Shipment, and Possession of Cigarettes and
Tobacco Products in New York State.
Based on this, I am assuming that 2 cartons (400 cigarettes) are the limit to avoid issues...
How many cigarettes can you smoke per day?
Just one is enough!

I quit smoking 'cold turkey' after 39 years of puffing and smelling like a walking ashtray. One of the best decisions of my life.

What do I do to punish my five year for smoking a cigarette?
Suicide is a bit extreme.. You should smack their hand just hard enough to grab their attention and make them look at the cigarette as you repeat "No".
When were cigarette filters invented?
There have been cigarettes with filters almost as long as there have been cigarettes. In 1883 or 1884, Dr. Scott's Electric Cigarettes may have been the first. They had a recessed filter on one end, and a match head on the other. So, you could strike one end and light the cigarette. It was not called a filter, it was called a 'no nicotine mouthpiece.' In fact, this is what filter cigarettes were primarily called until the 1940s.
Until the late 1920s, filter cigarettes had to be rolled by hand, no machine had been invented to manufacture them. So, they were rare and expensive. In Britain, where more companies rolled their cigarettes by hand, filtered versions were more common, beginning c1900.
The first machine made filter was duMaurier, which went on sale in Britain in 1929. They were also sold in Canada. In the US, Parliament was offered in filtered form (no nicotine mouthpiece) beginning in 1932.
E-Cigarettes work with a small rechargeable battery and a unique, safe, replaceable cartridge containing water, vegetable glycol, nicotine, flavoring and a scent that emulates tobacco and other flavorings exclusive to . When you inhale, it activates the atomizer which releases simulated smoke that is actually water vapor.
1. You should never ever smoke because every single cigarette contain a substance called Nicotin and i probably didnt spell that Right but yeah.
2. If you smoke you can lung cancer, and youll rotten your teeth, breath, skin, lungs, and lots more.
3. Having an addiction for cigarettes is very very bad. Because every cigarette you smoke it leads you closer to the list above.
How much money is spent on cigarettes a year?
They have spent roughly $79.8 billion in 2007, down from $83.3 billion in 2006.
At least in Canada there are no truthful stats. I got in touch with the B.C. Lung Assoc., posing as a non smoker and what I heard was astounding. Their stats are rated on 'guesstimates!' Some people are successful, but smoking is difficult for most people (they say as hard as trying to come off heroine) and there is no magic pill that will help, but just when the time is right for the person to quit. Many smokers do go back to smoking (may quit again until they quit entirely) and it can be caused by stress or just wanting the nicotine back in their body. When I phoned Mother's Against Drunk Drivers they had the exact stats of extreme injuries to death re car accidents/drunk drivers and this is because they get their stats from the police. If the government or certain people want others to quit smoking they should try to understand the addiction first (get to know what you are talking about) and provide as much support as possible. By hounding someone it only makes matters worse. The government has made huge revenues off tobacco products and the price of cigarettes has gone up dramatically so something smells pretty fishy there. I fear that the Canadian and U.S. governments are leading into dictatorship telling people to quit smoking, they are obese, what to eat, (on the news recently the U.S. is clamping down hard on certain restaurants re trans fats) but my idea of this is, people are adults and can make their own choices and NO government has the right to dictate what they think and if we allow this the next thing governments will start telling us how to live, what to read, etc., if people don't get their head out from under their rocks. The next thing I'm expecting is an old German tactic of ALL citizens had to have their radios on to listen to constant Propaganda and couldn't shut off the radio although they could turn it down. Here our governments are blaming smokers for everything down to the boil on someones butt when the whole of their environment is under stress and if they would put 1/8th of the effort into the whole of the environment this would be a better world to live in. There is a way to quit smoking, trust me.
How long does take for a cigarette butt to degrade?
