    Two things about freedom of speech... First: freedom of speech does not imply freedom from consequences of your speech (although those consequences are also subject to the law). Legal consequences are not censorship. Second: the right to freedom of speech does not imply any right to be listened to or published. Declining to publish or give a platform to someone else's speech, for whatever reason, is not censorship. These things often get lost whenever free speech comes up. When a corporate bigwig says something objectionable and finds that his company is subject to a publicity disaster and that the result of this is that his resignation becomes necessary, people yell about censorship - but that's just consequences. When a student body (or part of it) objects strenuously to being addressed by a person whose views they disagree with, that might be both contemptible closed-mindedness on their part and a contemptible lack of balls on the part of the schools that kowtow to it... but it isn't censorship. As for Charlie Hebdo... they may have been objectionable, and they may have frequently broken the unwritten golden rule of satire (punch up, not down), but the massacre at their office has simply illustrated the feeble-mindedness of a couple of thin-skinned murderers.

    Joking about drugging and raping real people is hardly the same as political and social satire... being subject to a discipline hearing under the code of conduct of a university is not the same as being shot at your desk as you work or for that matter being flogged by the King... this is not about the veracity of the debate it is not about burning books it is about it is about terrorist and murder and being accountable for your own behavior.... we can have free speech but it comes with responsibly and accountability.

    I thought I had addressed that with my first post in this thread. The short version: the events in France are primarily about the rule of law and the repudiation of murder as a recourse when offended or trying to control the behaviour of others. That the trigger was the expression of an idea is important, and also worth discussing, but secondary. It's because I value the rule of law that I'm Charlie, not because I think all speech at all times is sacrosanct. Re. Dalhousie: the hateful expressions by the male dental students were ugly and miserable but legal, otherwise we'd be talking about jail or fines for the offenders. Nobody is calling for jail or fines. But the students were in violation of some additional standards to which they were were subject: the codes of conduct of the university itself, and the professional standards of various Colleges of Dental Surgeons. It's under those standards that the students are being assessed. Violating the former has several possible penalties, including expulsion. Violating the latter has several possible penalties, including being denied the privilege of practicing in that College's province. The students knew these risks when they engaged in their behaviour, although they seem foolishly to never have considered that they might be found out and judged for their actions. Now, I think, they know better.

    You really have to be kidding... you are comparing a group of men being held accountable by a University to a Code of Student Conduct (which they agreed to when they enrolled) and potentially being held accountable by the professional licensing bodies of their chosen profession with people standing in unison worldwide to say that free speech issues should never be settled through terrorist attacks and murder. Comparing murders with administrative punishment is just plain unbelievable in my opinion. We certainly can all debate if the satirical cartoons were in good taste or appropriate... we can even pursue recourse though any administrative means that might exist but no its not alright with to fire bomb or shoot people we disagree with.

    This was from January 8th, I have been cleared by my physician after my very long time away healing/recovering from surgery that I have been putting off for too long but I'm strong, healthy and doing very well. I'm oh so ready to make 2015 one memorable year! It's great to be back and I am looking forward to some amazing times! Hugs, Lexy

    Hi everyone I am currently touring in Maritime , I came before Christmas and I really enjoy my time with eastern gentlemen :) But I would like to share one of disappointment about something . I am touring often and for years now & it never been a major problem ... And I been really disappointed about my current trip in Moncton . I hear in the past people are not reliable here but I decide to give a chance and try it , what I did this weekend. I am really disappointed because I took my time to book gentlemens who request an appointment . After we all confirm and give my hotel they never show up .. Not One , all of them for both day I was here .. My only word I want say please if you book an appointment and you cannot make it please just let me now or just don't book, I rather prefer to know you can't make it , then getting ready for nothing or maybe missed another appointment . My time is valuable as yours... Have a wonderful week everyone and thank you for the gentleman respect ours appointment in Fredericton it much appreciate I had wonderful time as usual xoxo Maxime

    If one of the female students targeted by the Dalhousie "gentlemen" had pulled out a gun and shot those men in response to their writings would that be ok? It's a matter of perspective. Some people obviously think mocking a religious leader is as abhorrent an act as killing a cartoonist. I think we should fight pen and paper with like weapons. Not with gun and bullets. Therefore the Dalhousie students are getting off easy (the hearing won't be completed til after grad) and the cartoonists got completely fucked over. My personal opinion.

    Looking for your very own tropical experience? Step into my HOT SPA and have a small taste of paradise! Relaxation begins the moment we set our eyes on each other. The Cuban sun has left his kiss on my skin, golden and soft. I maintain my mini spa with a warm environment, nice décor, cold and hot beverages (try my Hot Yoga Tea!) Always fresh and clean with delicate aroma to enhance your experience. Light background music to set the pace. Why do I call it a Hot Spa Experience? First we begin with some nice chats, taking time to enjoy each others conversation. Perhaps a Hot Yoga Tea, specialty tea to send warmth all throughout your body. Lay on my table, and I will use my hot stones from top to bottom. Warmth that penetrates down deep. Then strategically placed to unblock pent up energy. We can change rooms into a relaxing lounge area, and learn more about each others mind, body and soul. Complete this with a hot and steamy shower in my walk in shower. This is a 90 min session. To learn more about me and my services please view my website. This is assist you in making any informed booking. http://www.ladysophiaclassic.com/ 506 261 7313 My hours: Monday- Friday 9am-430pm occasionally evening session for 45 min massage only. New Cuba album is in the process of being edited, stay tuned!

    No kissing feels weird except if it's a massage session. I'm definitely a kisser and a damn good one too! lol No kissing to me or a kiss on the cheek upon greeting is like someone letting you have only one potato chip and not another. So I'm sending my intention out to the universe to all the kissers... until then.

    So sorry that happened to you and those who did it should be ashamed of themselves. They are going to burn their own bridges. Any guy who does this is an immature thoughtless douche bag, but that's just my opinion. This is why some don't tour and certainly why some don't go to some cities. Sometimes cancellations can be understood, as things can happen, but to not show up or call is just thoughtless!

    I have let Jess know that if her photos turn out to be fake (reported to me as a first hand experience with her) she will be banned for life from here. Just so everyone knows, if you show up and her photos are fake just turn around and leave and let us know. Don't "SETTLE" and give anyone money for time if you are bait and switched. If this happens enough they will stop or leave the business.

    I swear by my Surface Pro, I was given it as a birthday gift last year and absolutely love the machine. (If he is reading this THANKS!) It is definitely my first choice now though I use the keyboard a lot and wouldn't use it as just a tablet. I do like that I have options with it though. Recently I was in a 3 day seminar, over 12hrs of lectures every day and taking notes was quite tiring. I loved that I could switch it up, typing for a few hours, using the stylus to hand write notes and for the few lecturers that would allow it recording the session. If I was handwriting 36hrs of notes on a weekend I would have been icing my hand by Monday morning.

    The protein should never be an issue if you are eating properly but many people do not. Many people are consume more protein than their body requires. Still being vegetarian or vegan it isn't a lifestyle I expect everyone to switch to but yes it is quite healthy, I think one just has to look at the changes in Clinton to see what it can do for ones heart. Really I mentioned it because in going vegetarian/vegan it taught me a lot of healthy habits that I think others can incorporate in their life simply by checking labels, being aware of what their body needs and how they consume it and making better choices when snacking. :) Oh and as for Raw, while I know people that say they are doing quite well on a raw diet I am not a supporter of eating 100% raw. Cooking food helps to break down cell walls and can often increase the amount of nutrients available to us. Still like everything I believe it should all be in moderation, eat some raw, eat some cooked, eat some brownies or drink wine once in awhile. You can find some benefit in most everything if you look for it and don't over do it.

    Charlie lampooned everyone, politicians, the Pope, celebrities. So why was it not a Catholic who shot them? Why was it not Angela Merkel? Tom Cruise? Some of us accept our shortcomings and can laugh at ourselves. Others are so insecure and filled with self loathing their only reply is violence.

    But what's the principle we're expressing by saying "Je suis Charlie"? a) "All speech must be allowed in all circumstances without consequence." b) "No matter how dire your grievance may seem to you, you don't get to murder people over it." Rex is drawing conclusion a) and complaining that people haven't been following that principle across the board in the past. But I think Rex is wrong and I think a) is wrong (for reasons I've already explained). I think the principle at play here is b). And if we're talking about b), then I agree... 365 days a year.

    I recently had a former client friend-request me on my personal Facebook because we had a mutual friend. I found it highly inappropriate and somewhat disturbing. I promptly blocked him and it is safe to say I would no longer be comfortable seeing him as a client, were he to contact me again. If you see a lady outside of the workplace, whether it be in person or on social media, pretend you didn't. It is a game we all play for the sake of discretion. I have no illusions as to how private, or public my identity may be, but as members of this community, I think we can all agree to be cordial and limit our interactions to the hobby space, unless both parties indicate otherwise. That said, there are circumstances where relationships formed in the hobby can migrate into the rest of our lives. If you and your client/lady maintain contact outside of the hobby, it is up to you how to handle chance meetings etc. But if you only connect with your lady/client for the purposes of hobbying, then take care not to make any assumptions, no matter how friendly your client/lady may be during appointments.

    As the snow falls to the ground and Jack frost tries to break your nose off. It becomes easier to stay inside. Walking less and feeling lazier. But I try my best to keep active and get fresh air in the winter. I Bundled up in double layers and walked around to run some errands a couple times last week. Felt great to soak up the sun I'm excited for winter Activities. There are several out door rinks close to me. I prefer them to arena's. Possibly because I grew up on outdoor ice. And there is nothing like skating while its snowing. Gliding, spinning, swirling with the snow flakes. maybe throw a snowball or two at friends. Some people like snow boarding and skiing, but I've never gone. Snowmobile is fun too What do you to to keep yourselves entertained and active in the winter time?

    I use and like my Surface Pro 2, and would recommend it, although a little heavy. But if you go that route you have to be willing to learn the touch based command structure of Windows 8 to get the most out of it. As far as the Kobo goes, you have to remember that it was designed fundamentally as a reader, although that isn't the problem you have. I also have a 7" Google Nexus tablet made by Asus which works great. Designed for Google it has native Android, so a ton of good working aps, I particularily like the twitter rendition and the Kobo works really well, and it's cheap ($260 on Amazon)

    I think this thread is kinda sweet, and funny too! I did not get married, I am back in school for the moment. I took a year off to recover from some health issues, and after some much needed healing, decided to go back to school to complete my degree. I miss all the lovely moments I was able to share with you awesome people, and miss all the amazing women in this community also. I have decided to bring back the Sweetest Massages in May, when I am done with my schooling. I am eagerly anticipating reconnecting with all you amazing people and meeting the new members of our community also... Please feel free to email me at [email protected] if you would like to be notified of my return, thinking of doing a pop-up or two before I decide if I will be independent again, or work from one the amazing spas we are so lucky to have here in the capital. Big hugs to y'all, miss you lots, looking forward to seeing you soon! Bethany Xoxox

    Oppal also stated that the criminal regulation of prostitution contributes to the marginalization of women. I wonder if Harper would ever respond to that! Also, this article is very, very, VERY misleading. The inquiry was rejected by the families and many groups affected by the inquiry. These responses also fail to acknowledge or consult with special interest groups and/or families of these women...unless of course they support the criminalization of sex work. Funny how that works. And check out this post by a criminal defense lawyer: "Buried deep within the new bill is an amendment to the Criminal Code that would allow anonymous evidence to be introduced in court, limit disclosure of information to an accused, and curtail cross examination. In short the Victims Bill of Right creates a made-in-Canada Star Chamber (Note: the Star Chamber was a secret court - abolished in 1641 - used as a political weapon which became synonymous with abuse of power)" (http://www.michaelspratt.com/law-blog/victims-bill-of-rights-the-poison-pill) Can Harper just stop already? Grrrrr
