Who's to say that prostitution is wrong but sending kids to war to go kill people is right?

baloney...!

people need to mind their business in their OWN business... and get their priorities straight!

what's more important... some guy finding means on pleasuring himself or what their tax money is really being used for...


just close down a few more hospitals to make some more camera adjustable guns or the new slime bombs! Oh they did one right; the only good thing they came out with using our tax dollars are the new aphrodisiac "gay" bombs-at least that doesn't kill people! Could be a new way of war, I imagine! A True Love/Hate War; fighting with the power of love by throwing bombs to make the soldiers fall in love with each other! LOL! Really hilarious! What will they come out with next? The world never ceases to surprise me! :-)

by the way, i'm not condoning prostitution... i just hate how hypocrites cause an uproar over petty things that don't make a difference in our everyday lives! Spitzer did his job alright as governor; leave his personal life to be handled by him and his wife, u know.. "personally..." doesn't concern us... why do we need to even make prostitution illegal anyway... it's consented sex... and someone makes a living out of it... if it works for her.. good for her! would i go do it? hell no! i really look down upon it...! i would never sell myself... why would i let someone use my body to put their dirty sperm inside of me...? ewww... you're selling yourself--a part of you... why don't u just open your mouth for a few thousand and let a stranger have his bowel movement on you too! next you can sell your teeth, your kidney, and then your leg; i guess they have to make it illegal cause there's no limit to what you can sell... then only the rich will get to keep all their organs and get whores to come to their house to pleasure them and their families will be dysfunctional cause they'll have money but no one will love them... they'll have to pay for someone to pretend to love them and they will never know what real sex with love feels like... anyway, point is controlling it at a point before selling our parts gets out of control... we really don't want the homeless bums in jersey city to start screaming out, "Colon for sale" or "2 for 1 parathyroids"... sigh... controlling something before it gets out of control... hmmm.. peter cooper village stuyvesant town used that philosophy on their no pets policy... people understood cats and dogs but our secretary would get inundated with calls from people saying, well why can't i have a fish?... it's just a little tiny fish...how is a little goldfish on my room desk going to affect anybody... but it does... no pets means no pets... if i let you have a fish, why can't the next guy have a frog and the guy after that will want a guinea pig or a hamster and then that soon turns into an iguana and so on... remember that lady who swallowed a fly and had to keep swallowing all those animals to catch the last one that she swallowed? oh my oh my why did she swallow a fly? anyway... my point is i really don't care where he chooses to spend his own money; i just care that there's a garbage can at the end of every corner of the streets in ny and that i can get a cop to come by screaming for help if i get attacked on the subway... just let the guy do his job, u know...? not my business...his wife can take him to court for adultery and divorce him if she wants... again he's not my man... it's not my business...! ...same way i don't need to know that clinton showed good control by not climaxing until his 9th encounter with monica... why do we need to know that? do u see any other countries talking about their president's ejaculation habits? and yet we ridicule people back in the day for checking queen elizabeth's bed to make sure she had her period every month... sigh... priorities! why do i care if clinton has climax control? i just needed to know that he had good control in his office while not signing papers to jump to spend money to go to a war that doesn't affect us... unlike our current so-called president did... this is the same guy who thought it would be a good idea to chop down trees in order to prevent forest fires... gawd! seriously? ridiculous! even joe wouldn't say something that stupid! whomever wins this term, gawd anybody would be better than him! i really have no honor for this man, who by the way was against the law that congress just passed to make insurance cover psych bills just as they would for medical bills..! gawd.. huge huge difference this is going to make in our lives, especially for all the crazy people i know who need help! yes i'm talking to you, yes, you who's sitting there reading all my...

baloney!

What to do?

In a book entitled Facing Our Mistakes, David Hilfiker tells of caring for a pregnant woman in rural Minnesota. He was friendly with her and her husband and socialized with them. The pregnancy was highly desired by the couple.

Tests showed that the fetus had died. The woman felt pregnant. They waited a few weeks but there was no miscarriage though tests continued to say she was not still pregnant.

Ultrasound technology was new and scarce and over 100 miles away from his clinic. The woman was poor and had low quality transportation. Dr. H decided to not suggest she try to get to where ultrasound could be used.

Dr. H became worried that the dead fetus would cause her great harm and suggested a D & E.

He noted heavy bleeding during the procedure. Later the pathology report said the fetus had been alive and well. Should Dr. H tell her that?

Filipino Dances

APAMSA as their contribution for this year's Cultural Fair (a collaboration b/t different SOM student organizations) will be doing Filipino Dances choreographed by Knic Rabara! I've attached some youtube versions to give you an idea of what these dances are if you've never seen them. They aren't the best videos but you'll get the idea. If you are interested (you do not have to be Filipino or Asian, you just have to want to learn that's all), please email me and let me know.

On the docket possibly are:
tinikling (bamboo stick dance), kinda reminds me of double dutch for some reason =)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6GAfdmNEHvA

sayaw sa bangko (bench dance)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=439NOKgFyho

maglalatik (coconut bra dance), men in coconut bras, need I say more??

Emergency Tips

There are a few things that can be done in times of grave emergencies. Your mobile phone can actually be a life saver or an emergency tool for survival. Check out the things that you can do with it:

FIRST
Emergency
The Emergency Number worldwide for Mobile is 112. If you find yourself out of the coverage area of your mobile; network and there is an emergency, dial 112 and the mobile will search any existing network to establish the emergency number for you, and interestingly this number 112 can be dialed even if the keypad is locked.
Try it out.


SECOND
Have you locked your keys in the car?
Does your car have remote keyless entry? This may come in handy someday. Good reason to own a cell phone: If you lock your keys in the car and the spare keys are at home, call someone at home on their cell phone from your cell phone. Hold your cell phone about a foot from your car door and have the person at your home press the unlock button, holding it near the mobile phone on their end. Your car will unlock. Saves someone from having to drive your keys to you. Distance is no object. You could be hundreds of miles away, and if you can reach someone who has the other "remote" for your car, you can unlock the doors (or the trunk).

Note: It works fine! We tried it out and it unlocked our car over a cell phone!"


THIRD
Hidden Battery Power
Imagine your cell battery is very low. To activate, press the keys *3370# Your cell will restart with this reserve and the instrument will show a 50% increase in battery. This reserve will get charged when you charge your cell next time.


FOURTH
How to disable a STOLEN mobile phone?
To check your Mobile phone's serial number, key in the following digits on your phone: * # 0 6 # A 15 digit code will appear on the screen. This number is unique to our handset. Write it down and keep it somewhere safe. When your phone get stolen, you can phone your service provider and give them this code. They will then be able to block your handset so even if the thief changes the SIM card, your phone will be totally useless. You probably won't get your phone back, but at least you know that whoever stole it can't use/sell it either. If everybody does this, there would be no point in people stealing mobile phones.

And Finally....

FIFTH
Cell phone companies are charging us $1.00 to $1.75 or more for 411 information calls when they don't have to. Most of us do not carry a telephone directory in our vehicle, which makes this situation even more of a problem. When you need to use the 411 information option, simply dial: (800) FREE 411, or ( 800) 373-3411 without incurring any charge at all. Program this into your cell phone now.

This is the kind of information people don't mind receiving, so pass it on to your family and friends.

Good luck

hny

so i'm sitting and working in my bed on my insomnia presentation (which by the way is the number one no-no in the treatment of insomnia as you need to build positive associations with your bed for sleep and sex ONLY!) and at the same time, i'm trying to finish up my ethics paper and managed care paper (darn hmo's--pain in my butt!) and i get a text message from a friend i hadn't heard from in a while... so being lazy and in the midst of working fast to get some sleep (whatever that means, as I have to wake up at 4:30 in the morning and leave by 5) i reply back to his message with a cheery "hny!" at the end... to my surprise i get a stream of "LOL"s and excited propositional faces and messages back as a response for being "horny!"

Go Figure! -i had to take time to blog this one real quick before getting back to work!

hny=happy new year world!

Connie Talbot's original audition...


...really makes my heart melt and makes you believe that life can be beautiful again... :-) @----}---0----O-----------
Congrats on your album, Connie!

Ten Thoughts to Ponder for 2008

Number 10
Life is sexually transmitted.

Number 9
Good health is merely the slowest possible rate at which one can die.

Number 8
Men have two emotions: Hungry and Horny. If you see him without an
erection, make him a sandwich.

Number 7
Give a person a fish and you feed them for a day, teach a person to use the internet and they won't bother you for weeks.

Number 6
Some people are like a Slinky .. Not really good for anything, but you
still can't help but smile when you shove them down the stairs.

Number 5
Health nuts are going to feel stupid someday, lying in hospitals dying of nothing.

Number 4
All of us could take a lesson from the weather. It pays no attention to criticism.

Number 3
Why does a slight tax increase cost you $200.00 and a substantial tax cut saves you $30.00?

Number 2
In the 60's, people took acid to make the world weird. Now the world is weird and people take Prozac to make it normal.

And The Number 1 Thought For 2008
We know exactly where one cow with mad-cow-disease is located among millions and millions of cows in America but we haven't got a clue as to where millions of illegal immigrants and terrorists are located. Maybe we should put the Dept. of Agriculture in charge of Immigration.

DADDY'S GONNA EAT YOUR FINGERS ..

This one is for everyone who ..
a) has kids,

b) had kids,

c) was a kid,
d) knows a kid

e) is going to have kids.

I guess that means all of us!!

DADDY'S GONNA EAT YOUR FINGERS ..

I was packing for my business trip and my three year old daughter was having a wonderful time playing on the bed. At one point she said, "Daddy, look at this" , and stuck out two of her fingers.

Trying to keep her entertained, I reached out and stuck her tiny fingers in
my mouth and said , "Daddy's gonna eat your fingers," pretending to eat them.

I went back to packing, looked up again and my daughter was standing on the bed staring at her fingers with a devastated look on her face.

I said, "What's wrong, honey?"

She replied, What happened to my booger?

Neil deGrasse Tyson's Top Ten Favorite Facts About the Universe

10. There are 100,000 times as many stars in the universe as sounds and words ever uttered by all humans who have ever lived.

9. Humans are genetically connected with life on Earth, chemically connected with life on other star systems and atomically connected with all matter in the universe.

8. Dark matter and dark energy make up 94 percent of the universe. We can measure their existence, yet we have no idea what they are.

7. Beneath a thick layer of surface ice, Jupiter's moon Europa likely harbors a liquid ocean kept warm by the gravitational stresses induced by Jupiter and by neighboring moons -- a potential haven for life.

6. An asteroid the size of Mount Everest slammed into Earth 65 million years ago. The ensuing global climatic catastrophe left 70 percent of all the world's species extinct, including the ferocious dinosaurs.

5. There are more molecules of water in a cup of water than cups of water in all the world's oceans. This means that some molecules in every cup of water you drink passed through the kidneys of Genghis Khan, Napoleon, Abe Lincoln or any other historical person of your choosing. Same goes for air: There are more molecules of air in a single breath of air than there are breaths of air in Earth's entire atmosphere. Therefore, some molecules of air you inhale passed through the lungs of Billy the Kid, Joan of Arc, Beethoven, Socrates or any other historical person of your choosing.

4. The laws of physics, as measured here on Earth, apply everywhere else in the universe -- across space and time.

3. Since light takes time to travel from one place to another, the farther out in space you look, the farther back in time you see. With our most powerful telescopes, we can observe the universe all the way back to its earliest moments -- all the way back to the Big Bang itself.

2. With Mars likely to have been wet and fertile before Earth in the early solar system; with known bacteria that can survive extremes of temperature, pressure and radiation; with asteroid impacts that can cast into space rocks that contain bacterial stowaways, allowing life to move between planets, it may be that life on Earth was seeded by life from Mars, making all of us descendants of Martians.

1.With chemical elements forged over 14 billion years in the fires of high-mass stars that exploded into space, and with these elements enriching subsequent generations of stars with carbon, oxygen, nitrogen and other basic ingredients of life itself, we are not just figuratively but literally made of stardust.

Does he call you "Beautiful"?

When a GIRL is quiet ... millions of things are running in her mind. When a GIRL is not arguing ... she is thinking deeply. When a GIRL looks at u with eyes full of questions ... she is wondering how long you will be around. When a GIRL answers " I'm fine " after a few seconds ... she is not at all fine.

When a GIRL stares at you ... she is wondering why you are lying. When a GIRL lays on your chest ... she is wishing for you to be hers forever. When a GIRL wants to see you everyday... she wants to be pampered. When a GIRL says " I love you " ... she means it. When a GIRL says " I miss you " ... no one in this world can miss you more than that.

Life only comes around once make sure u spend it with the right person .... Find a guy ... who calls you beautiful instead of hot. who calls you back when you hang up on him. who will stay awake just to watch you sleep. Wait for the guy who ... kisses your forehead. Who wants to show you off to the world when you are in your sweats. Who holds your hand in front of his friends. Who is constantly reminding you of how much he cares about you and how lucky he is to have you. Who turns to his friends and says, " That's 'HER' !! "

When we girls drink too much...

Challenging My Profession

Thousands of years have passed and the study of medicine has still been the same. We still study the same human body in the same shape and form as it was when ape first evolved into man. The way we practice medicine may have become a bit more what we call, “humane” but the actual substance and ultimate goal has been the same throughout time—to keep the human body healthy! We still have the same body that functions the same way as it did eons ago, only our way of looking at it has changed--from gross to microscopic to molecular. We seem to be learning more and more about the same matter of fact but medicine itself has not changed!

Take a look at another profession—law for instance. You take any law from any time period it will not hold true today, in fact quite far from the law not working; it wouldn’t even make sense if read out loud today. Law is constantly being challenged, condemned, and reformed. It conforms to the way we evolve in our society and is constantly changing.

Business has also been changing and cannot be run today the same way it did a century ago! The industries have changed; trade is now corporate, and factories are manufacturing different products. Investment banking has a whole new definition than it did twenty-five years ago--there were no computers to check stocks second by second or to buy and sell at the click of a button. The more we interact with the world, the smaller it gets.

From Ovid to Shakespeare to Steinbeck; our style of writing, theater, literature and even the humor we appreciate in books or television shows has diversified significantly. From Socrates to Nietzsche to Marx; philosophy, theology; our way of thinking and being has transformed because our way of existing has changed. Technology has been revolutionizing the world! Our government—well too much to say about that, --I’ll shut up now…


But just think of ten important people,... any ten famous names...


....


none of them are doctors.. i rest my case...



average doctor saves 20 lives in his career... sure it changes their families' lives....


if one makes a law... it changes millions of peoples' lives..


if one makes an invention--it changes billions of peoples' lives...


if one does business... it changes your own life...

i hate how indian men keep trying to make a fool of women --that they'd believe any cocked up stories that is fed to them!

everytime things get good, they run away from warm and fuzzy--cause of their fear of actually being committed to one person and they run the other way looking for everything that could be possibly be wrong to use it as reasoning to not be in a relationship; fights start to replace the warm and uzziness and comfort of companionship and this trouble that they look for is only found with volcanic eruptions; the reasons pour out like lava and the ash falls form the sky smothering out the romantic fire that once embraced their love... and then everything about the relationship just seems wrong to justify their actions even more and if it's hard to find a reason,.. simple: just make up shit...

If you don't know men by now...

(Leroy) I have to ask you a question.



And it's an important one



so I want you to think about the
answer before you give it to me, OK?



OK.



When two people really love each
other but they can't get it together,



when do you get to that point
where enough is enough?



That... Oh, well, that's...
You know?



Um, you know it's over when...



OK, I have, like, these psychosomatic
insomniatic manifestations of...



Well, here's the thing about me.



I'm a product of my emotions, not a
product of my environment, like him,



which he is, exactly,
just that environmental...



I-l need sunshine to grow.
That's who I am.



And with the projection of...



I have goals.



- That's your answer?
- Yeah.



That's not right.



I mean, there's a right answer here,
but that's not it.



Look, in my business
you're surrounded...



by loneliness and finality.



I don't care what your take is
on an afterlife,



when people die, it's scary,
and they go alone.



Now, the people that I send off,



that have experienced love...



They're a little less scared.



They're still scared,
but there's a calmness to 'em.



I think that comes from the knowledge
that somebody somewhere loved 'em



and cared for 'em and will miss 'em.



Now, I see that from time to time
and I am awed by it.



I don't think I'd be telling you this
if it wasn't for Frank.



Anyway, it's a loaded question.



Look, when two people
love each other, totally, truthfully,



all the way love each other,



the answer to that question
is simple, especially in your case.



When do you get to that point
where enough is enough?



Never.



Never.



I just hope Jerry's not stupid.



...call me... .. .
