I'm looking for a Japanese teapot for a friend who doesn't own a teapot and enjoys Japanese tea, mostly higher grades. It needs to have a filter in it, although I'm not picky as to material, and be in the 8-16 ounce range. I'd prefer something with a side handle, but he's left-handed so it has to have the reversed handle. Any advice on where to find something like this? I live in a small city and can't go to a metropolis to shop.

I like my tea. In fact, I like my tea too much and often want a nice cup at midnight for the taste, or realize that I drank 10 cups today. So I could use a decaf tea, preferably green.

I live in a small city in the US Midwest with no Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, or any of the big organic supermarket chains. I don't like the taste of Lipton decaf tea bags. Bigelow's decaf green is okay but I'd like a recommendation for something better. And no, I don't want fruit-flavored tea or tea in a bottle. Something decaf I can make at home.

My aunt's puppy (9 months old) has developed the bad habit of peeing whenever a leash is put on her, even when she's leashed in a crate! How can she be broken of this habit? She's housebroken otherwise.
