Great American Smoke Out

November 19 is the Great American Smoke Out. If you feel that it is time for you to quit smoking, check out our list of the top searched ways to stop the habit.

Top Searched Products to Help You Quit Smoking on AOL Search:
1. Chantix
2. Zyban
3. Nicotine Patch
4. Commit
5. ZeroSmoke
6. Nicorette Gum
7. Nicocure
8. Smoke Away
9. Nicotine Gum
10. Nicotine Inhaler

Smoking is not an easy thing to try to quit, not that I have ever tried. I've never been a smoker, but, as I've seen many friends and family members struggle with their nicotine addiction, I know it isn't easy to quit smoking.

Now, more than ever, is a great time to quit especially because there are so many products out there to help you deal with your addiction. The hard part is finding the one that works for you. Trial and error is probably the best way to figure out which product will suppress your addiction.

In order to help you figure out where to start, I decided to look at which products are popular among our users. Prescription medications Chantix and Zyban topped the list, followed closely by the Nicotine Patch. One of the most innovative products on the list is ZeroSmoke, a product that uses magnets to create a pressure point on the ear stimulating the production of neurotransmitters in the brain which eliminate the desire to smoke. Other popular products include Nicorette Gum, Nicotine Gum and the Nicotine Inhaler.

Do you know of any products to help quit smoking that didn't show up on our list? If so, please tell us about them. Try searching for products to quit smoking on AOL Search or check out AOL Shopping.

Much Anticipated 'New Moon' Opens tomorrow!

Tomorrow is the official opening all over the country for second movie in the 'Twilight' trilogy, 'New Moon'. There are quite a few theaters that have premiers at 12:01am Thursday night. Many fans have already bought tickets, and are eagerly awaiting the doors to open.

In the first movie 'Twilight' we got a look at the story and characters, and by the end most were wanting more. At that time, the making of the next book into a movie was up in the air, with problems between the book writer and the movie folks. Luckily, agreements and terms were made, and the next book went into production. I think lots of fans let out a sigh of relief, and began watching for anything new coming out on the progress of this new movie.

As fans, most of us have read the books, and had formed our own ideas about what the characters would be like. Once the first movie was out, we were able to visually connect with those characters, and the popularity of those actors increased dramatically.

Now with this movie, we are introduced to another group of characters, who will continue to bring more depth and excitement to the screen.

I know I've already made my plans for Friday night along with all the other "Twilight" fans. I will be at those doors, at my favorite theater at the appointed hour.

Meteor Showers....How nice

Meteor showers are so cool! This year we will have had the ability to see 7 different events. Meteor showers happen when a group of meteors come together at a particular time of year. Usually we see them when the Earth travels through the debris that the comet has shed during its orbit. The different showers are named by the constellation that the meteor falls in.

Usually you can see the shower best when you are away from brightly lit towns or cities. If you can drive out to a spot that has little light other than the stars, you can usually see much better. You should position yourself at a spot so that you can see the horizon. You won't need any special equipment to see them, just make sure to give your eyes time to adjust to the darkness.

The showers that have passed already were the Quadrantids in January, Lyrids in April, Eta Aquarids in May, Perseids in August, Orionids in October. Last night you could see Leonids, and on the night of December 13th and 14th you will be able to see Geminids.

So on December 13th, grab a blanket call some friends, pack a thermos with something warm and find a nice place away from the city lights and enjoy the show.
