Not familiar with what cabaret means to be honest :s But listening to Lana Del Rey's song kinda sorta reminded me of this song

The website you linked has no mention of lethal effects when it comes to said natural option. One that is lethal, listed with more health effects including depression, hypertension and heart disease is alcohol. From the legal stuff: Risk of death. I don't care for the legalization, but if society deems alcohol legal despite all its harm, I think society can handle the other stuff. Or ban both, be consistent. And orange/red scares me

I really don't think it has ever been a religious thing. Just groups that happen to be from a certain background. The commander of the Munich massacre came from a Jewish Christian family, and a good number of Palestinians are Christian. I think it's been framed to be a Jewish Muslim conflict to simplify matters, as well as rile up support on either side. I don't see a resolution in the next 10 or 15 years. On one side (Israeli), the official demands are: To be recognized as a state To have all the settlements as the exist now and to allow for natural growth For Palestinians, it gets more complicated There are some that will only talk to Israel if the latter is willing to accept the 1967 borders, and in turn remove all settlements beyond the line Some want to go back to the 1948 borders at the creation of Israel And some will not accept Israel under any circumstance, and want things to go back prior to the 1940s when Israel does not exist. You have the Fatah and Hamas on the Palestinian side, and depending on your view, that means the two parties in power over their respective areas are moderate and extreme, or extreme and very extreme. You have governments in Israel going farther to the right since Rabin. And when an agreement was made, Rabin was assassinated by someone on the far right. Then as far as the youth go, which has been mentioned by some here, I believe are getting more entrenched in their parents' hatred of the other side. The Arab Spring consisted of Arabs being angry at one of their own. But many leaders invent up a fake enemy (sometimes a real one comes along), and it's citizens are united. The only division is how hated is the enemy. Arab youth, especially ones in Gaza know that the reason they can't leave is because of a blockade. They have grown up to believe it is Israel's fault, and they do not have access to the resources citizens in countries of the Arab Spring had. Israelis fear for their lives every time an alarm is sounded of indicating yet another rocket attack. And then there is Jerusalem. Once a wholly (as of the 20th century on-wards) Muslim controlled city, followed by the British, then in the Palestinian side, then after the 6 Day War, incorporated in Israel and proclaimed the capital, unloading a whole shit storm of new hate from the Palestine side. You have a limited number of countries who actually put their embassies there, while most remain in Tel Aviv. Go back beyond the 20th Century, and Jerusalem has gone from one control to another so many times, it becomes dizzying trying to recollect the order. The biggest problem? (In my humble opinion that is) It's not the borders. It's the pain and suffering on both sides. Imagine someone you absolutely love, a mother, father, significant other being killed by a drunk driver or murderer. Some are able to forgive that person, a lot don't. But the slightest bit of silver lining in that incredibly dark cloud is that you probably have other friends and family that can get you through this. Now imagine they are going through the exact same thing as you. Everyone you know feels the loss you are, and you know that in time, the only guarantee is that more are going to die. My bet goes to the Koreas uniting before there is peace here. (I'd like/hope to be wrong) And pictures, cause eyes Proposed partition plan, 1947 ------From a pro-Palestinian website------ 1946- They believe that the entire thing less some land is theirs UN Plan - second one from the left Israel wins the war at the formation of Israel, wins (legally or illegally) land from Arab opponents Picture on the right - More or less the state of things now

I agree. My uncle was prescribed morphine for pain management. Morphine! I cannot for the sense of me understand why a drug that's addictive, and can possibly be lethal, be allowed while a more natural one banned.

I recognized an SP from Cerb while waiting for a bus. She was across the street. I then continued listening to music while reading NPR on my phone. Felt proud of myself for not doing anything different (one of life weird victories whether it deserves to be considered one or not).

Tutoring math, eventually physics at the age of 16. I liked it a lot, charged $25/hr, and I worked for myself. Made more in two hours then my friends did in an entire shift Kinda fell on me. I started tutoring to get my mandatory 40 hours of community service for high school done, and when I completed it, I decided to volunteer more. Eventually one of my student's mother called me and asked if I tutor over the summer since his grades had gone up from a C to an A after our sessions. Offered me $25/hr (I would've done it for $10), and thus began my first business.

I started my business during the recession, so in a way it's been a blessing that I've only worked during a bad economy (can't wait for things to get better). But despite the bad economy, I raise my prices every year or every time I reach a milestone in my work. I understand when SPs will not roll back prices because it sets a precedent. I've seen other photographers do it, and it ends up in a downward spiral. I decided that my time was worth a set amount of $$, if I do get clients, great, and if not, I'd probably live of savings and focus on school or find another job. Thankfully, even though clients have become more frugal, I've gained a reputation and some see the value in that. But to answer the OP's question, I've visited an SP very erratically, no set times per month, just when I feel like it and have the time. So it hasn't made a difference

Open minded I'm assuming? I think you'll have a lot of questions answered here: http://www.cerb.ca/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=10214 As well, I'd recommend reading the sticky'd threads here: http://www.cerb.ca/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=207 It'll answer a lot of stuff and more.

Sexiest man alive
piano8950 replied to CristyCurves's topic in General Discussion Area - all of Canada
I think Daniel Craig is a remarkably handsome man, especially in a suit. (Actually any man who wears a suit well is a man I can aspire to look like) -
I think I'd like to go to Paris, and make my way around Europe with a rail pass.

provider turn hobbyist
piano8950 replied to rileydaniels's topic in General Discussion Area - all of Canada
Do what makes you feel happy. I see a provider because I'm very inexperienced with the whole thing, and seeing one is helping me build up confidence (and teaching me) in physical stuff. Another member here sees a provider(s) from what I understand because his SO cannot be intimate and he utilizes SP as a surrogate. Others do it to avoid the complications of a relationship. There are a ton of reasons I've read on Cerb for why anyone sees an SP or an MA. If going to a strip club makes you feel sexy and liberated, good for you for doing things that make you feel that way! -
