Now through May 8 at the Missouri History Museum located at Lindell and DeBaliviere in Forest Park
Before I begin my debriefing let me state that this exhibit was organized by the International Spy Museum. Who knew that we have an International Spy Museum and why has that information been kept secret? Ah, paranoia and conspiracy already creeping into my thoughts. The International Spy Museum, the only museum exploring the craft, practice, history, and contemporary role of espionage, opened in Washington, DC in 2002. It is the only museum in the world to provide a global perspective on an all-but-invisible profession that has shaped history and continues to have a significant impact on world events.

How do we identify who is the “other”, our enemy? How do we keep our country safe without compromising the civil liberties upon which it was founded?

5 Tricks to Eat Organic on a Budget Many consumers are willing to pay more money for organic foods because they value the health and environmental advantages, but the question that arises is: "Is it worth it?" This comes up frequently because organic foods tend to be much more expensive than their conventional counterparts. The truth is that, when equipped with the right tools, you can eat organic without making a major dent in your bank account. Use the following five tips to become a savvy organic shopper and start eating organically-without your wallet taking a big hit. 1. Avoid foods that will not provide the benefits of the organic seal. Certain foods absorb higher levels of contaminants and pesticides than others. However, ones that contain few pesticides do not appear to provide nutritional benefits when they are purchased organically. The Environmental Working Group (EWG), a public health research and advocacy organization, produces an annual guide to pesticides in produce based on an analysis of 28,000 samples of produce collected by the United States Department of Agriculture and the Food and Drug Administration. EWG determines which fruits and vegetables are the least likely to test positive for pesticide residues, known as "The Clean 15." In other words, not only do these 15 fruits and vegetables pack the same nutritional punch in organic and non-organic varieties, but you won't cut your pesticide risk by opting for the more expensive option.
Here they are: • Asparagus • Avocado • Cabbage • Cantaloupe • Sweet Corn • Eggplant • Grapefruit • Kiwi • Mango • Mushrooms • Onion • Papaya • Pineapple • Sweet peas (frozen) • Sweet potatoes Additional foods that are not worth buying organic (or even non-organic) are processed foods, such as chips, crackers and cookies. From a nutritional prospective, what really counts is that the product is low in fats, added sugars and calories. Cookies are always going to be cookies, high in calories and fat and sugar. Even if the cookie is made with organic ingredients, it is still a high-calorie indulgence. If you are trying to lose weight or eat better, the best advice is to skip the cookies altogether. 2. Buy in bulk. Most of us live near a wholesale store, many of which sell organic foods in bulk. If you're searching for an inexpensive way to purchase organic foods, it may be worth getting a membership to one of these stores. For instance, you can save between 20 to 35 percent on organically raised chicken when bought in bulk vs. not in bulk. Other cost savings can be found in organic milk and even coffee. 3. Buy fresh, freeze and eat later on. The invention of the freezer allows us to stockpile our food. When going organic, use your freezer to your advantage. You'll not only save money (such as when stocking up on a sale item), but you'll also be able to keep plenty of organic foods ready and available at a moment's notice. Organic strawberries and blueberries are ripe in the summer, but freeze them and you can enjoy the taste and nutrients in the fall and winter, too! MORE: 16 Healthy Organic Recipes 4. Buy organic in the freezer section. A December 2013 study looked at the difference in the vitamin and mineral content of eight different fruits and vegetables when they were fresh versus frozen. While the produce was not organic, the findings are still applicable. The researchers found that fresh produce degrades over time, resulting in a loss of certain nutrients. Fresh produce stored for five days had lower values of vitamins A and C and folate compared to the frozen version. What's more, you can use what you need and put the rest back in the freezer, rather than risking the food going bad and then having to throw it out-along with the money you spent. 5. Go to your local farmers market. Purchasing organic foods from a local farmers market is another way to cut costs. Going to the farmers market gives you an opportunity to interact with the farmer or someone from the farm who may be able to give you a special deal. During certain growing seasons, farmers often have a larger supply of fruits or vegetables that grew well that season. Instead of letting the excess go to waste, farmers often negotiate a deal on their produce. Want to wheel and deal with your local farmer but don't know where to start? You can eat organic without going broke-sometimes all you need is just a little creativity and know how!

RETHINKING BOTTLED WATER
NEW MENU COMING SOON! You’ll have to try
THE HAIRY PIG featuring local Mangalitsa pork.
Imagine there was a time when bottled water didn’t exist in our catalog of popular commodities. Perhaps the trend started in 1976 when the chic French sparkling water, Perrier made its introduction. There it was seductively bottled in its emerald green glass amongst the era of disco and the spectacle of excesses . . . who could resist right?! What could be more decadent than to package, sell and consume what most consider (in the western world) a common human right easily supplied through a home faucet! It wasn’t until the 1990s when bottled H2O became an everyday common sight and a symbol of our cultural desire towards fitness and “health-consciousness”. Even today health enthusiasts claim drinking water often helps to “detox and boost the metabolism!” Here are seven of the most thought-provoking reasons to skip the bottled water if possible:

1. Bottled water is 240 to 10,000 times more expensive than tap water. 2. A single half-liter of bottled water costs as much as an entire day’s worth of cooking, washing, showering and toilet flushing with tap water. 3. If a family relied on bottled water instead of tap water each day, their monthly water bill would reach as much as $9,000. 4. Around 33 cents of every dollar spent on a bottle of water from abroad goes to transportation costs. 5. For every liter of bottled water you drink, the production process uses twice as much. So if you buy one liter of water, you are actually paying for three. 6. Most of the money bottled water companies spend is put towards not the water itself, but marketing and advertising. 7. Despite all that, Americans still spend $15 billion every year on bottled water.

How To Get Rid Of Ants In The House When it comes to pest extermination, not all people know how to get rid of ants in the house. It seems that these insects know numerous ways to get in your house: holes in walls, floor and foundation, crevices in the ceiling, basement and attic. Among a huge variety of ants that get inside are black, sugar and carpenter ones. So, how to get rid of carpenter ants?

The common mistake everyone makes is that they start looking for ways out, when the problem has occurred. Why not prevent its appearance? Especially when it is not that hard. In order to prevent ant infestation, keep to the following tips: • Keep your house clean, especially the kitchen, as ants get attracted by food sources. • Cover attracting substance tightly and clean the furniture surface. • Sweep the floor after meals, even little messes can attract ants. • Always cover the foods you don’t hide in fridge. • Never leave dirty dishes in the sink. Wash them up after each meal. • Keep trash cans and bins far from your house. • Take the trash out every day. • Don’t allow moisture to accommodate on counters and other surfaces, as ants keep looking for water out wherever they can find it and stay near its sources.
How to Get Rid of Ants in Your House:
Finding the Nest For those, who want to know how to get rid of ants, looking for their nest is the first step to take. To find the location of their nest, follow the worker ants. Leave a sweet item outside, and after they catch a bite, follow them to the nest. Of course, the procedure requires time and patience, but the result is worth the efforts. When you find the nest, spray boric acid powder between the walls or behind a tile. This will kill all the ants in the nest. Why not use pesticides? The reason is very simple: some ants may hide or run away. If they have pesticide remains on them, they will spread them all over the house.
Top 5 Natural Repellents
1. If you don’t manage to find the nest, you can sprinkle cayenne pepper near the opening where ants enter you home. This is the most effective natural repellent. 2. One more option is blending water and citrus peelings in a food processor or blender. Lemon peelings are the most effective. However, lemon can also be used in a quite different way: take its juice and mix with water. Pour in a spray bottle and spray the mixture on the places, where you used to see ants. 3. Placing instant grits along the path of the ants is another effective repellent. Eating grits ants start dying as grits work as dehydrators, absorbing all the water for ants’ bodies. 4. The safest homemade remedy is a mixture of water and white vinegar. Spray the substance along the paths of the ants that are coming to your place. 5. Other effective products are cinnamon, pepper, strong perfumes, cream of tartar, tea tree oil, etc. Mixing them with water and spraying all around, you will get rid of ants in a few days. Knowing how to get rid of ants’ population in the house you prevent their armies from destroying the peace of your home. 8
