CHAUMONT Ontario Bays Initiative, a Chaumont-based land trust, is calling for more studies on wind farm impacts, echoing similar concerns raised by other local nonprofits and government entities.
In a letter submitted to the state Public Service Commission, OBIs board chairman, James O. LaPlante, said the area is part of the Northeast Flyway, which hosts thousands of migrating avian species many of which are endangered and/or threatened.
While we support the concept of renewable energy, we have serious concerns regarding the construction of industrial scale wind turbine projects in this area until more extensive studies are done, and more accurate statistics are gathered, he said in the letter,
BP Wind Energys proposal to build a 124-turbine wind farm in Cape Vincent has been drawing concerns from local land and environmental conservation groups such as the Thousand Islands Land Trust and Save the River, Clayton.
Cape Vincents town government also has been calling on the state to halt wind project siting reviews until long-term regional studies on infrasound and low-frequency noise impacts are conducted.
Citing a similar movement in Wisconsin, Cape Vincent officials are reaching out to municipalities across the state for their support on a resolution asking the state PSC to consider a wind moratorium until noise issues are properly evaluated.
Ontario Bays Initiative also asks that the state siting board uphold local zoning laws during the review of BPs wind project application.
As a home rule state, our local municipalities are working long and hard to ensure the preservation of our heritage, the welfare of our residents and the best land use for our area. We respectfully request the Article X siting board carefully consider the wishes of our local officials, and if allowing the installation of industrial wind turbines, do so only within the scope of our Cape Vincent comprehensive plan and zoning laws, Mr. LaPlantes letter said.

Kidd: 'We Can't Be Satisfied'
Brian DiMennaAlan Hahn passes this gem from Jason Kidd along, as Kidd reminds the Knicks not to get too carried away.
"They're still the champs. We haven't done anything … It does feel good, but we can't be satisfied. We've got to stay hungry. We can't fall into the trap because we really haven't accomplished anything yet."
The idea of Kidd's veteran leadership sort of turned into a punchline when his car turned up on the wrong end of a telephone pole over the summer, but adding an attitude like this one to the team was exactly what the Knicks' brass had in mind.
Kidd is exactly right, as giddy as the rest of us are allowed to be, the Knicks really aren't. The "we haven't accomplished anything" thing would make for a pretty great mantra for this club to take, because it has the added bonus of being absolutely true. Complacency is not really an option for a franchise this starved for success.
Of course, these same rules don't really apply to the rest of us. We're free to go as bananas as we like. We can break out the Ray Felton underwear, name all our kids Carmelo, or throw a first-place parade in the backyard where everyone's invited.
You know, the Knicks just probably shouldn't.

As reported in the New York Times Magazine, the "Holy Grail of the Unconscious" is finally being published. The author, the legendary Carl Jung, is the founder of analytical psychology. For those with affection for the terms "collective unconscious" or "psychological archetypes," news of the availability of the elusive and much coveted Red Book should provoke enthusiasm, and with any hope, pleasant dreams.
Sara Corbett describes the last minute details of the long-disappointed but persistent Jungian Stephen Martin working with the Jung family to publish the book. The family had kept it locked up since Jung's death in 1961, despite the efforts of his followers for nearly half a century. Jung left no instructions on how to handle the book, which some thought could be embarassing in content. Historian Sonu Shamdasani has worked for half a decade on "decoding" the book, inserting over a thousand footnotes and a long introduction. Thanks to Jung's grandchildren and the Philemon Foundation, which Martin directs, W.W. Norton will release the book next month.
Finally the dreaming public will be able to peer into Jung's unconscious, as the book describes his demon-filled journey during which "even the devil criticizes Jung as hateful." Corbett, who went to Zurich to see the original book, describes the tome's content as such: "Man skids into midlife and loses his soul. Man goes looking for soul. After a lot of instructive hardship and adventure — taking place entirely in his head — he finds it again." Indeed, this marks a significant moment for the world of dreamers.

So after what can only be described as a horribly
disappointing start to the playoff series, the Rangers were energized by their
home crowd and looked like a very different team than they did in Washington.
In the two games they played at the Verizon Center, the Rangers managed just 1
goal. In games three and four, the Rangers combined for eight goals. I can't
figure out this team for the life of me, but right now, I don't care. I'm just
happy to be going back to Washington with the series all tied up! But the
Rangers need to take this momentum with them to Friday's game, as they are the
ones who hold it all right now.
Tonight the Rangers did a lot of things right. They limited
Alex Ovechkin to 1 shot up until the last five minutes of the game. They stayed
out of the penalty box (which is huge against the Capital's lethal power play).
They created turnovers in the Washington zone. And miraculously, though they
did fail on a five on three, they did score a power play goal (hey, we can't
ask for too much in expecting more than one of these a game). Henrik Lundqvist
was stellar as usual, and came up big when the team needed him in the third
period. And (gasp), Brad Richards scored
a goal!! Now if only Rick Nash would score…
The line of Ryan Callahan, Derek Stepan and Carl Hagelin was
reunited and there were immediate results. The trio connected for a beautiful
play and Stepan scored the game-winning goal. This was the strongest line
during the regular season and needs to be kept together in the playoffs to
maintain the consistency of having an offensive threat. And Derick
Brassard…wow. He has five assists in the past two games, and has been a bright
spot on the power play. Many people, myself included, were skeptical of the
Gaborik trade, but he's been contributing a lot to the team's offense,
especially during the last two games.
The biggest thing the Rangers need to do is stop turning the
puck over in their own zone. Their failure to be able to clear the puck is a
major liability, as it generally ends up in about two minutes of a Capitals
shooting gallery, and has been the reason for more than one of the Caps' goals
this series. The Capitals have two incredibly dangerous players in Niklas
Backstrom and Ovechkin, not to mention Mike Green on the blue line, with Troy
Brower chipping in as well. Ranger fans hold their breath with extended bouts
in the defensive zone, while the Rangers scramble to stop the shot barrage. They
have trouble maintaining possession long enough to change lines, or even simply
get the puck out of danger without taking an icing.
As a lifelong Rangers fan, I'm used to being on the edge of
my seat and this team sending my emotions out of whack night in and night out,
experiencing both elation and anger throughout the season. But this team does
it within each game. From period to period, minute to minute, you never know
what you're going to get. When the Rangers play like they did through the
majority of game four, they are a very good team. They forecheck, they shut
down other team's top players, and they create scoring chances for themselves.
They just need to eliminate the lapses. One thing is definitely for sure though
– we now have ourselves a series.

KS betrayed RP with producer SWATH!!
It's sad!!!!
Yeah, it will be good when he's able to get past this...he's had such a HORRIBLE shock. She pulled the rug right from under his feet!
I'm glad you can separate the actors from the characters they portray. I don't think all Twilight fans can do that. I know I can't.... Of course, rationally speaking, I'm very well aware that they're not Edward and Bella. Emotionally, though, it's a different story...and anyway, it was just so wonderful that life seemed to be imitating fiction...
So I definitely won't be seeing BD 2 in November. I know I will at some time in the future. But it's gonna be a while. Of course, I still love the books, as well as the movies I've seen so far. But I'm going to have to wait some time before I can watch the last movie. I wonder whether other Twihards will do the same. This scandal will surely have some effect on the movie's promotion and premiere.
As for Rob not attending the premiere, I don't blame him, either. It would be sheer toruture for him. By the way, I read an article online today which reported that all of the Twilight stars support Rob. So KStew has very few friends (if any!) right now!!
Ronnie Rodriguez "twihard4ever" said:
My opinion in a sense is that I hope Rob can forgive her in the near or very VERY distant future, showing that he wants to get past this even though there isnt even a slim chance they will get back together. I for one am seeing the movie because they arent Bella and Edward and i want to c Bella and Edward's story have a happy ending, it doesn't change my love for the books and it shouldnt because they arent the characters no matter how good they portray them. So ya, i heard Rob isnt going to the BD2 premiere though, can't say I blame him
Well i think Kristen Stewart made a mistake by hurting Robert like that. i understand why he left and i honestly dont want them to get back together after what she did. I just want to see how the Breaking Dawn situation will work but their acting is separated from their real feelings for each other. I was actually smiling when i found out she cheated on him because i didnt want them to be together in the first place. thanks for commenting. byeee
Don't you think that it's just some PR for not successful SWATH?
Maybe they just hope that it will halp to sell more SWATH DVD's?
Maybe even RP and KS love wath just a fairytale for us, naive fans?!
Sorry for my english, I'm one of Twifans from Ukraine, but even for me this situation is so awful.
And it's so awful to think that I believed in lie...
Ronnie Rodriguez "twihard4ever" said:
I doubt that "PUBLIC apology" was actually Kristen Stewart, I mean since WHEN has Kris been public about her personal life, ESPECIALLY through a magazine. It took her almost three freaking years just to say the mere word "boyfriend", so I'm pretty sure she hasn't apologized publicly, I think personally to Rob yes. She's said it personally that half of what magazines say that she said arent true at all, so y should we think she's gonna apologize now no matter what she did?!?! I dont believe it, i doubt it, considering the fact that she doesnt give a s*** what paparrazzi say about her, and that she once compared paparrazzi to "rapists".
I for one am mad that she did let this happen, even if it was a mistake. I respect her acting chops and the fact that she doesnt let Hollywood change her into a "cookie cutter actress", but what she did was wrong, and hope she knows that and regrets it with all her heart..
K bye:p
I'm very sad to heard this news but i can only wish them well.
At the same time, i'm very angry and worry.
I don't understand why at this time. This year is the final year for Twilight movie, Twilight is so perfact so why ruin it.. I'm totally worry about the movie. Cos this year there are so many big and good movie, can Twilight once again win all those movie?
Let's pray hard.
I have heard about Kristen Steward affairs and i've voted at http://tinyurl.com/8d9kdxz and i think she was GUILTY! do u agree with me? but the majorities voters voted she was NOT GUILTY , please vote if REAL Twilight fans!
there is no point for us to believe if she is guilty or not. we are not her other half. so long as they are happy and the moive do well.. but i really hope both of them will be tgt..
I actually agree with u..
Like, Kristen would never ever apologize in public!!
She has been more open in 24 hours about here private life then she has here h*** life!
I think she's been paid or something, idk... but threre is some muffins here.
Ronnie Rodriguez "twihard4ever" said:
K so the pics r real, saw them ALL and yes they r very real.. But i dont believe Kristen would apologize publicly, ESPECIALLY through a magazine.. First of all since when is she so public about her private life hmm?!? Ok so ya maybe she did cheat but i doubt she would apologize in public...
And if she did cheat, who cares?!? Its not like the sky is gonna crumble.. Shes human and shes allowed to make mistakes, we all do.. I just hope that Rob is noble enough to get past this and forgive her someday, even if they dont get back together.. I for one think they dont have to answer anything though, they dont have to deny or accept it... Its their life, and their privacy, and we as fans should respect it and support them in their time of need...

Kidney and Urologic Diseases
There are many organizations who provide support for patients and medical professionals. View the full list of Kidney and Urologic Disease Organizations. (PDF, 345 KB)
Proteinuria—also called albuminuria or urine albumin—is a condition in which urine contains an abnormal amount of protein. Albumin is the main protein in the blood. Proteins are the building blocks for all body parts, including muscles, bones, hair, and nails. Proteins in the blood also perform a number of important functions. They protect the body from infection, help blood clot, and keep the right amount of fluid circulating throughout the body.
As blood passes through healthy kidneys, they filter out the waste products and leave in the things the body needs, like albumin and other proteins. Most proteins are too big to pass through the kidneys' filters into the urine. However, proteins from the blood can leak into the urine when the filters of the kidney, called glomeruli, are damaged.
Proteinuria is a sign of chronic kidney disease (CKD), which can result from diabetes, high blood pressure, and diseases that cause inflammation in the kidneys. For this reason, testing for albumin in the urine is part of a routine medical assessment for everyone. Kidney disease is sometimes called renal disease. If CKD progresses, it can lead to end-stage renal disease (ESRD), when the kidneys fail completely. A person with ESRD must receive a kidney transplant or regular blood-cleansing treatments called dialysis.
People with diabetes, hypertension, or certain family backgrounds are at risk for proteinuria. In the United States, diabetes is the leading cause of ESRD.1 In both type 1 and type 2 diabetes, albumin in the urine is one of the first signs of deteriorating kidney function. As kidney function declines, the amount of albumin in the urine increases.
Another risk factor for developing proteinuria is hypertension, or high blood pressure. Proteinuria in a person with high blood pressure is an indicator of declining kidney function. If the hypertension is not controlled, the person can progress to full kidney failure.
African Americans are more likely than Caucasians to have high blood pressure and to develop kidney problems from it, even when their blood pressure is only mildly elevated. In fact, African Americans are six times more likely than Caucasians to develop hypertension-related kidney failure.2
Other groups at risk for proteinuria are American Indians, Hispanics/Latinos, Pacific Islander Americans, older adults, and overweight people. These at-risk groups and people who have a family history of kidney disease should have their urine tested regularly.
1United States Renal Data System. USRDS 2007 Annual Data Report. Bethesda, MD: National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, National Institutes of Health, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services; 2007.
Proteinuria has no signs or symptoms in the early stages. Large amounts of protein in the urine may cause it to look foamy in the toilet. Also, because protein has left the body, the blood can no longer soak up enough fluid, so swelling in the hands, feet, abdomen, or face may occur. This swelling is called edema. These are signs of large protein loss and indicate that kidney disease has progressed. Laboratory testing is the only way to find out whether protein is in a person's urine before extensive kidney damage occurs.
Several health organizations recommend regular urine checks for people at risk for CKD. A 1996 study sponsored by the National Institutes of Health determined that proteinuria is the best predictor of progressive kidney failure in people with type 2 diabetes. The American Diabetes Association recommends regular urine testing for proteinuria for people with type 1 or type 2 diabetes. The National Kidney Foundation recommends that routine checkups include testing for excess protein in the urine, especially for people in high-risk groups.
Until recently, an accurate protein measurement required a 24-hour urine collection. In a 24-hour collection, the patient urinates into a container, which is kept refrigerated between trips to the bathroom. The patient is instructed to begin collecting urine after the first trip to the bathroom in the morning. Every drop of urine for the rest of the day is to be collected in the container. The next morning, the patient adds the first urination after waking and the collection is complete.
Containers for a 24-hour urine collection.
In recent years, researchers have found that a single urine sample can provide the needed information. In the newer technique, the amount of albumin in the urine sample is compared with the amount of creatinine, a waste product of normal muscle breakdown. The measurement is called a urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR). A urine sample containing more than 30 milligrams of albumin for each gram of creatinine (30 mg/g) is a warning that there may be a problem. If the laboratory test exceeds 30 mg/g, another UACR test should be done 1 to 2 weeks later. If the second test also shows high levels of protein, the person has persistent proteinuria, a sign of declining kidney function, and should have additional tests to evaluate kidney function.
Cup for a single urine sample.
Tests that measure the amount of creatinine in the blood will show whether a person's kidneys are removing wastes efficiently. Having too much creatinine in the blood is a sign that a person has kidney damage. The doctor can use the creatinine measurement to estimate how efficiently the kidneys are filtering the blood. This calculation is called the estimated glomerular filtration rate, or eGFR. CKD is present when the eGFR is less than 60 milliliters per minute (mL/min).
If a person has diabetes, hypertension, or both, the first goal of treatment will be to control blood glucose, also called blood sugar, and blood pressure. People with diabetes should test their blood glucose often, follow a healthy eating plan, take prescribed medicines, and get the amount of exercise recommended by their doctor. A person with diabetes and high blood pressure may need a medicine from a class of drugs called angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors or a similar class called angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs). These drugs have been found to protect kidney function even more than other drugs that provide the same level of blood pressure control. Many patients with proteinuria but without hypertension may also benefit from ACE inhibitors or ARBs.
People who have high blood pressure and proteinuria, but not diabetes, also benefit from taking an ACE inhibitor or ARB. Health care providers recommend that people with kidney disease keep their blood pressure below 140/90.3 To maintain this target, a person may need to take a combination of two or more blood pressure medicines. A doctor may also prescribe a diuretic in addition to an ACE inhibitor or ARB. Diuretics are also called "water pills" because they help a person urinate and get rid of excess fluid in the body.
In addition to blood glucose and blood pressure control, the National Kidney Foundation recommends restricting dietary salt and protein. A doctor may refer a patient to a dietitian to help develop and follow a healthy eating plan.

In recent years, researchers have learned much about kidney disease. The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) sponsors several programs aimed at understanding kidney failure and finding treatments to stop its progression.
The NIDDK's Division of Kidney, Urologic, and Hematologic Diseases supports basic research into normal kidney function and the diseases that impair normal function at the cellular and molecular levels, including diabetes, high blood pressure, glomerulonephritis, and other diseases marked by proteinuria.
Clinical trials are research studies involving people. Clinical trials look at safe and effective new ways to prevent, detect, or treat disease. Researchers also use clinical trials to look at other aspects of care, such as improving the quality of life for people with chronic illnesses.

Your WWW editors love Crazy, Stupid, Love for numerous reasons--among the obvious are Ryan Gosling's abs, Emma Stone's charming performance, and Steve Carrell's wit--but what really stood out about this fantastic film was rising star Analeigh Tipton! A former contestant on Cycle 11 of America's Next Top Model, Tipton has proven herself a real talent on both the silver and small screen, with leading roles in the recent Damsels in Distress and season three of Hung. It's easy to see that Tipton is a face-to-watch, especially since she consistently shines on the red carpet too! Reaching for feminine pieces with a current and edgy spin, Tipton's arsenal of thoughtfully-constructed ensembles is unfailingly chic and always exciting, which is exactly why we're showing you how to get her look today!
On The Red Carpet and At Events
Whether she's attending a film screening or an exclusive fashion event, Tipton's affinity for stylish simplicity is apparent in almost every outfit. Case in point: the sleek, monochromatic ensemble she wore to the Los Angeles premiere of her film Damsels in Distress earlier this year. Understated elegance at its best, Tipton's perfectly pared-down look consisted of a white sleeveless Calvin Klein Collection dress from the Resort 12 collection--notice the athletic-inspired trend on display with the high neckline--and champagne Casadei pumps. In addition to her stunning minimalist looks, it should also be noted that Tipton enjoys a subversively sexy outfit on occasion too! For The Film Society's screening of Damsels in Distress two months ago, Tipton opted for an all-noir look via a Hoss Intropia dress and B Brian Atwood's Cassiane Heels ($280). The combination of sheer paneling and fringe details give the look a cool, come-hither spirit befitting the 23-year-old actress. On that same note, we also approve of the boudoir-influenced ensemble Tipton selected for an Elie Saab dinner in New York back in April. Together, the bright red jacket and pants combo (from Elie Saab's Resort 12 collection) and black sheer lace top made for an irresistibly chic, masculine-meets-feminine outcome.
Happily, mimicking Tipton's feminine styling is a piece of cake when you have the right pieces on hand. From a pretty lace skirt to a sweet pink blush, we've curated a selection of essential fashion and beauty picks that will have you channeling our GOTM's on-point aesthetic in no time at all!
Get Her Look
Yoana Baraschi Sunblaze Lace Skirt($148)
This preposterously chic pencil skirt has Tipton's name written all over it! The bright coral hue and intricate lace design, while a stunning combination, also imbue the skirt with playful femininity-a characteristic that is fully present in all of our GOTM's ensembles. Throw it on with a silky tank and sandals and you'll have yourself a noteworthy after-hours look.
Nicole Miller Sadies Clutch ($415)
Though our GOTM tends to keep it pretty simple in the accessories department, she occasionally adds a touch of glamour to her looks via a bedazzled clutch. Accordingly, we selected Nicole Miller's Sadies Clutch, which, with its flashy crystal embellishments, would be the perfect finish to any GNO outfit.
In God We Trust Jordyn Top ($200)
It's clear that menswear-inspired pieces play a major role in Tipton's wardrobe, so this button-up by In God We Trust seemed like a natural fit for today's story. The sleeveless cut is great for the current summer months, plus the contrasting collar and pocket lend the understated piece an interesting and modern look. Just be sure to follow Tipton's lead and style it with a pair of printed trousers.
Zara Combined Printed Shorts ($60)
If you've already read Market Watch: Summer Shorts, then you probably know that printed silky shorts are the perfect way to stay chic and cool this season. This affordable pair by Zara would surely appeal to Tipton's tastes, as the relaxed fit and patchwork print design exude easy elegance. We imagine she'd style them with a boyish button-up and heels for a fashion party.
JewelMint Revolution Rings ($30 per set)
For the girl who restrains from chunky, statement jewelry-a.k.a. Tipton-these dainty rings by JewelMint are an excellent choice! The embellished 3-piece set, inspired by the shapes of nuts and bolts, includes a gold-plated hexagon, rose gold-plated square, and an oxidized gold pentagon. While they're certainly swell on their own, you can also stack them all on one finger, making these little baubles the ideal everyday accessory.
Topshop Riot Lace Cut Out Sandals ($160) in Nude
Of all the must-have nude sandals to choose from this season, we think this pair by Topshop is a prime pick, especially if you plan on channeling our GOTM! While the neutral hue gives them a sophisticated look appropriate enough for daywear, the strappy design and lace-up detailing make them suitable for an after-hours fete too! Versatile and chic-yes, please!
Le Méteier de Beauté Creme Fresh Tint for Lip and Cheek ($28) in Poppy
To achieve Tipton's perfectly flushed cheeks, you'll definitely want to snag Le Méteier de Beauté's Creme Fresh Tint for Lip and Cheek in Poppy. The sheer color formula is easy to wear (we promise!) and will instantly brighten your cheeks for a fresh, rosy glow. We also recommend dabbing some of the color onto your lips for a pretty pink stain!
Francisco Costa for Calvin Klein Black Viscose Crepe Belted Keyhole Dress ($160)
If you're searching for that wear-with-anything, perfect-for-summer LBD, look no further than the Black Viscose Crepe Belted Keyhole Dress from Francisco Costa's diffusion Calvin Klein line, sold exclusively at Macy's. Sophisticated, yet also subtly sexy at the same time, this breezy frock is sure to get you through a slew of warm-weather events. While Tipton might add a pair of textured black sandals to complete the look, we also like the idea of incorporating a few bright accessories, like a patterned bag and statement cuff.--Jessica Baker

Salle de presse
Precor Media Relations(800) 786-8404
Precor Introduces the New Adaptive Motion Trainer® (AMT®) with Open Stride™
Adaptive stride length and adjustable stride height provide infinite range of motion paths
Woodinville, Wash. – Today Precor introduces the all-new Adaptive Motion Trainer (AMT) with Open Stride at the 2012 International Health and Racquet Sports Association (IHRSA) Trade Show in Los Angeles, CA.
The new AMT with Open Stride will quickly become a favorite – not only for facility operators but for exercisers. It has a low perceived exertion and achieves a higher caloric burn. Combined with greater personalization, exercisers stay engaged and work out longer, resulting in increased goal achievement.
Paul Byrne, President of Precor, comments, "We are extremely proud of our company's history of innovation. When we first introduced the AMT in 2007, we didn't just introduce a new product, we introduced a whole new category – adaptive motion. With the new AMT with Open Stride, we've done it again, as it offers a workout experience similar to other pieces of cardio, all on one machine. We feel confident that if you had to run a fitness facility with only one category of cardio equipment, you could do it with the AMT."
The new AMT with Open Stride enables users to adjust their stride height from 6.8" to 10" (17 to 25 cm). Additionally, the new AMT has a longer adaptable stride length, increased from 27" to 36" (69 cm to 91 cm) to accommodate users of all sizes and fitness levels. These two innovative product improvements add up to provide more workout variety than any other piece of cardio equipment, delivering greater personalization of motion on the fly for exercisers.
- Continued-
The new AMT with Open Stride is available in two models, AMT® 885 and AMT® 835. The AMT 885 features a P80 console with a touchscreen and a simple and intuitive user interface that provides extensive personalization for the user. The AMT 835 has a P30 console which features a large LED display that focuses on essential fitness stats.

Irrationality is forbidden only those who make sense may post here
Trolls are attempts to express feelings that failed
Don't think passwords stop anyone because my computer is just as clever exept for the fact that I never typed this.
It still makes sense because my language has no computer. I do. If I could say it and make myself heard. you only see letters. I figured out a way: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r5iOIa4EZuQ This is me showing you how to live normally.
First commandment
Seems to be the best thing to do if people want to give nothing or more insist on giving something/FSM that represents nothing back. (Seems to be the only remedy against the bad that was forced on me with something that looked like nothing to me but meant something to my diagnosis/diagnosian) If it happened to me, it could happen to you. Nothing impossible,except for sharing memories you do not want to share.
Second commandment
Not sure, Insert self
Decide (make up your mind by being not/not being/not)
Imagine doing what you decided
You know what to do
The fact that I had to play with myself to come into being (nothing interacting with itself) Should illustrate that masturbation or anything can be bad for others is not bad but good. You don't see, because understanding cannot be seen. Understanding can only be created by trying to understand.
I'll know when you lied of course in case you are imagining doing something sneeky.
I have bad memories from playing with myself when I was not.
That's of course not gonna stop me from masterbating know
I am certain that I can kill anyone who admires/loves/specialices/genefies/praises or in any other ways stick labels on me I do not want.
If you want my power here it is
selfreflect to be objective (feel what you feel when you reflect), reflekt to be subjective (feel what you reflected feels)
you should be able to invent your own selfreflector but i will give it to you anyway (justincase you find an appication for a diagnosian unverse.
het opdringen van je mening tijdens een geprek is als je lul opdringen aan een onschuldig kind die weigert
sommige mensen vergissen zich wel eens en denken dat een masturbant een ander woord voor pedofiel is.
pedofielen bestaan niet want al zou ik het nog zo hard willen ik kan mijn computer niet laten masturberen.
ze associeren zichzelf met het doen in plaats van het zien en hebben niet geleerd te reflecteren terwijl ze bezig zijn.

The period of obligated service is in addition to any other period for which the recipient is obligated to serve in the civil service of the United States.
(d) Employment of Program Participants.— The Secretary of Defense—
(1) may, without regard to any provision of title 5 governing appointment of employees to competitive service positions within the Department of Defense, appoint to a position in the Department of Defense in the excepted service an individual who has successfully completed an academic program for which a scholarship or fellowship under this section was awarded and who, under the terms of the agreement for such scholarship or fellowship, at the time of such appointment, owes a service commitment to the Department; and
(2) may, upon satisfactory completion of 2 years of substantially continuous service by an incumbent who was appointed to an excepted service position under the authority of paragraph (1), convert the appointment of such individual, without competition, to a career or career conditional appointment.

(f) Relationship to Other Programs.— The Secretary of Defense shall coordinate the provision of financial assistance under the authority of this section with the provision of financial assistance under the other authorities provided in this chapter in order to maximize the benefits derived by the Department of Defense from the exercise of all such authorities.

The 6 Best -- and 5 Worst -- Hand Creams
When was the last time you showed your hands some love? Before you reach for any old lotion, check out these best hand creams -- and which ones to skip
Why: The off-putting scent of this product makes it a deal-breaker for the majority of reviewers. One explains, "It moisturizes and softens your hands, but the smell is absolutely awful. Not recommended that you put this on in public." Another reader says, "When I put it on it doesn't feel like cream at all. It's thick and when you start to rub it in, it turns into an extremely oily substance. The smell is also awful ... bearable, but still awful! I'm almost done with the tiny tube that I have and I don't foresee myself purchasing it again."

The L'Occitane shea butter hand cream is my favorite!!!!! It makes your hands instantly baby butt soft and isn't greasy. The lotion sinks in right away!!!!!

My hands have become so dry this winter. I really did need this list and will be trying some of these out. I was genuinely surprised to see Burt's Bees taking up two spots on the worst list. I always hear good things about them. Ah well.

it's great when cheap creams make it to the top picks. but i don't really see a big difference in rating between the bottom best and the worst creams...

You nailed most of the best, but you did leave out wonderful Neutrogena's "Norwegian Formula Hand Cream" and Anthropologie's hard-working formula.

These sound about correct from what i have tried from the list!

Ahoy thar me fellow pirates! I be wondering if'n any o' ye will be attending the world wide protests against the church of scientology on June 14th. This month's protest is Pirate themed Which I see as a direct request for Pastafarians to join in the fight
The main cause for the recent protests is to revoke the church's tax Exempt status since it is clearly not a non-profit organization and requires people to pay exorbitant amounts of money for each and every one of it's services.
If you would like more info about a protest near you please check out this message board http://www.enturbulation.org/
