My husband was diagnosed with stage 4 primary liver cancer in<br />March 2013. The doctor told us there was not much to be done since the tumor was 7 inches covering his lower lobe and also had<br />spread to his lymph nodes. We decided to go home and called hospice which gave us morphine for pain. Ed hated the morphine which<br />made him vomit and also affected his mind. After one week at home we decided to do what we have done for many years, rely on<br />ourselves.We were only in Hospital for 3 days with severe Pain. The cancer had blocked his bile duct, after that we choose a<br />Naturopath doctor and have not had conventional treatments. one day i came across the use of cannabis oil for treatment of cancer<br />and i saw a post on how a cancer patient was cured with cannabis oil. I urgently needed help and i contacted the email :(ricksimpsonoil02@gmail.com) to get the cannabis oil, i was given instructional guide on how to use it. After taking a gram<br />of oil per day. Within a couple of weeks his pain and swollen stomach disappeared and with it came hope and a good quality of<br />life. We never saw an ocologist and only have done a blood test after the first diagnose CT scan. His tumor marker went from over<br />6000 to normal and he is feeling well. We don’t know how this is going to play out, but enjoy every day and give thanks. As i am<br />writing this post, my husband is free from liver cancer and the doctor confirmed that the cancer was cured permanently. For<br />immediate assistance on every medical issue you and your family may be experiencing, contact Dr Rick via email: (ricksimpsonoil02@gmail.com) for more information and the delivery process.Patricia Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05163999325157676362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-928190953754695329.post-43344415791622779152014-09-30T06:19:32.696-04:002014-09-30T06:19:32.696-04:00Thank you very much for post: I like it and hope t...Thank you very much for post: I like it and hope that you continue posting.<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://www.greattickets.com/" rel="nofollow"> Great Tickets</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18288672558515698909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-928190953754695329.post-15722305782948432192014-01-26T10:01:46.391-05:002014-01-26T10:01:46.391-05:00Our legislators have given Hoosier constituents so...Our legislators have given Hoosier constituents so many reasons to leave this state: We support the NRA and Gun Lobby.

We need leaders who put their constituents before their campaign fund raising. We need leaders who are guided by a moral compass who do what is for the good of mankind and not a compass that leads them to the next campaign contribution or a position as a lobbyist etc.<br /><br />This is supposed to be a position of public service, not self service.

Someone may be well informed on all candidates and select the one they think will do right. And all the choices the voter makes on one ballet belongs exclusively to one party. Over the years MOST of the choices belong to that same party with an exception of two or three candidates belonging to a different party. I think there aint no way to prove a person is STV without a confession/admission from said voter. I agree this bill is just an attempt to force ppl on how to vote. I like your point here: "I'm only saying that, for the average voter, many of the small local races don't feel important to them. Few voters choose to research those races and discover which option they truly support". Small local races tend to be bore to me.

They simply said, please do not come in if you are in possession of a firearm. That's telling that group of people that they wish to have a rule they instituted followed when others come onto their property. Something entirely different than outright prohibiting access.<br /><br />You bring up property rights. In many ways, it is analogous. Imagine your home has white carpets everywhere, but you don't make people take off their shoes when they come in. Now, most people will take their shoes off anyway or at least make sure they don't have muck on their shoes before walking all over carpets, it is just common courtesy. But some random assholes will come in bringing in mud and dog shit, staining your beautiful white carpets. Might you afterwards enforce a strict no shoes policy from then on? I know I would.<br /><br />Starbucks said, "hey, look, in some states carrying a firearm is legal. If you live in a state and have gone through the proper channels to be legally carrying, then that is cool." Then next thing you know, assholes began getting mud and dog shit all over their carpets. Starbucks didn't like that, therefore a statement was made saying that if you come onto their property, they would appreciate it if you follow this rule.<br /><br />"Now I know they said they are not going to ask people to leave and what not ... but do you honestly think that will stay that way?"<br /><br />Honestly, do not care. They are property owners (or leasers/renters with use rights).

They do have a history of taking some pretty tough stances on things ... but never have they told a group of people to stay out of their stores before ... I get what you are saying with the whole "both sides fucked up with the rallies and shit" but honestly ... how is an entire population of people to blame for some crazies? There have been a crop of articles like yours popping up talking about how "we" had this coming and blah blah blah ... I didnt have a god damned thing coming ... but now after years of supporting starbucks ... I am being asked to change how I operate?? what because some fucking stupid cunts decided to bitch and moan and piss off the wrong crowd that actually fought back?? I think not ... <br /><br />Now I know they said they are not going to ask people to leave and what not ... but do you honestly think that will stay that way? That the loud mouthed anti gun cunts will let it end here? No because some people that OC will not know about and walk into a starbucks ... thus creating an uproar ... or some people like me will 100% ignore it if I start going into PSL withdrawals and need my fix ... I will walk into a starbucks OCing ... and then there is a picture taken ... and then another call to arms by the cunts .. and BAM ... corporate no gun policy just like Buffalo Wild Wings ... <br /><br />One more thing ...

But I cannot fault them for deciding to help him. Even if every member of the FOP believes he's guilty, he is still entitled to a fair trial. And to me, providing him with representation helps ensure just that. And that's always a good thing for all of us, even when (maybe especially when) the evidence appears overwhelming. If the membership wanted to use their dues to help pay for Bisard's defense, more power to them.

If you are going to make a serious argument, I propose that you read the Indiana Constitution, SB621, and the current Indiana code. Please explain what passages constitute “unrestricted control,“ a “power grab,” “unheard of authority,“ “whatever way he seems fit,” “almost unbelievable power,” “change that budget on a whim,” and the “system of checks and balances“ that “this bill eliminates.”<br /><br /> The Mayor and City-County Council have lawfully enacted budgets, then the County Offices ignore them and overspend. Wouldn’t this constitute a “power grab” (and more) by the County Offices? Shouldn’t there be a “system of checks and balances” for the County Offices?<br /><br /> Suppose, for example, that the Sheriff overspends his budget and the Mayor must raise taxes in order to compensate. The voters are going retaliate against the Mayor in the next election and not the Sheriff. If the Mayor is going to be held responsible for a problem, then shouldn‘t he have the power to fix it?.<br /><br /> I personally would prefer to keep all 29 members of the City-County Council, but SB621 is hardly the end of the world. There are 25 members remaining to listen to the voice of The People. We will still have the third largest City Council in the country.<br /><br /> I am curious about your assertion that The People should decide what model works best for Marion County. Exactly how would The People do that? We have difficulty getting 150 legislators to agree on something workable! Do you seriously believe that a collection of opinions from a million county residents can be assembled into something rational? Should County residents sit at a table in the Convention Center and not leave until there is unanimous agreement on the wording of a model? Under what authority would such a convention act and under what rules should such a convention operate? Since The People gave the Libertarian Party only 1.48 per cent of the vote in the last mayoral election, the Libertarian Party should not be the one to dictate the rules.<br /><br /> <br />Reform Believerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09257120582217651464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-928190953754695329.post-71004798659944651142013-01-30T08:52:41.802-05:002013-01-30T08:52:41.802-05:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10456153234777075573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-928190953754695329.post-28800720761093690442012-11-28T11:41:21.563-05:002012-11-28T11:41:21.563-05:00Great post, as always, Josh.

It was already well on its way to being a thing of the past, this just sped up the process. <br /><br />I haven't been able to verify if the executives did indeed get huge increases in pay over the past few years, but the market has changed for Hostess. Even among snack junk foods, there are just frankly more options that are also reasonably priced. Most grocers have dozens of different varieties of bread from at least 10 different manufacturers. It was a product that hasn't changed much with the times.

It's no surprise to me that he waited until past the appeal date had passed before pulling the plug. He submarined them. Don't believe everything you hear out of the Mayor's office either. The Project School was audited within the last 2 weeks by an independent firm and was given a clean bill of health. As for the test scores, for most of these kids this is their last stop. They are the troubled of the troubled kids in our community. If you look at the scores for kids that have been there for a few years versus the kids that have only been there for 1 year, there is a dramatic improvement. Almost by definition, these kids are not going to do well on ISTEP their first year at the school. It takes time to unwind the terrible education and experiences these kids have had so far in life. The Project School is great school, ask any parent who has kids there.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
