et fresh, get clean and get productive with these three new products hitting the shelves of stores near you.
First on the list is Office 2008 for Mac, which provides the basic life-necessities for those looking to get down to business. Perfect for those in either the office or the classroom, this software upgrade is welcomed by Mac users who haven’t seen an updated version of the software staples in nearly four years. Included in the bundle is Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Entourage (the Mac equivalent of Outlook). For those who hate relearning their programs, you’re in luck – the interfaces haven’t changed dramatically, which can’t be said for the Microsoft Office 2007 update for Windows that left many dazed and confused. Some notable improvements include Word’s ability to save to PDF and its improved referencing tools that make switching between citation styles less cumbersome.

Excel is more visually appealing and its Formula Builder guides users through the process of building calculations, which is now much easier than it was before. PowerPoint focuses on making it easier for users to create beautiful slideshows that go beyond text boxes and drab clip art. A digital clock is also now an option during public presentations, to ensure those with a tendency to trail on keep things on track. In brief, this software upgrade will make doing things like creating budgets or doing basic desktop publishing that much easier and the focus on improving aesthetics will be welcome by those getting sick of the same old song. The software is available at electronics retailers and has a suggested price of $179.99.
Bad breath got you down? Then try new Crest Pro-Health Rinse. It packs all the germ-killing, mint-laden power of regular mouthwashes without that nasty tingle caused by alcohol. In place of hangover-inducing ethanol is cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC), a bactericide that eradicates the tiny organisms responsible for causing halitosis and gingivitis. The mouthwash is Crest’s first alcohol-free rinse and is recommended by the Canadian Dental Association.

Since it lacks the high alcohol content of major competitors, it’s safe for anyone to use (although not recommended for children under six) and since it has anti-gingivitis and anti-plaque activity, it rises above other brands that merely quell the garlicky aroma emanating from your mouth, but do nothing else for oral health. Good health starts in your mouth, so make this novel product a part of your daily regimen. You can find it on shelves now at major retailers across the country.
