Wednesday's story ideas

Center for Disease Control says one out of every four teenage girls is infected with a STD.

Solar powered stuff. More and more items fill the shelves in home improvement stores.

The feds have no regulations regarding pharmaceutical residue in bottled water. Will this finally hurt the bottled water industry?

Speaking of water, how effective are those home filters or reverse-osmosis systems?

Spring is here, at least in some parts of the country. So what are the most fuel efficient lawn mowers, and how well do those electrically powered ones work? You can still buy the old fashioned push mowers, by the way.

Oil prices. Many say the hike is investor driven, and has nothing to do with supply and demand.

Diesel prices. They're close to four bucks a gallon. Check with a local independent trucker to see how these guys are coping.

And just for fun, check out the New York Post's Eliot Spitzer headline writing contest.
