Our organization is dedicated to increasing awareness of the terrible health consequences of asbestos exposure.<br /> <br />I found your site through a search and decided to contact you because of its high environmental and green presence which is extremely important in our movement. Your viewers are extremely savvy and motivated. The promotion of how buildings should now be built using sustainable green products to avoid asbestos and mesothelioma as well as the awareness of past buildings and preventative steps in avoiding asbestos exposure are extremely important. My goal is to get a resource link on your site or even to provide a guest posting to be placed.<br /> <br />I look forward to hearing from you. Please feel free to check out our website. Thank you for your time and consideration. <br /> <br />Bill Hawthorne<br />bhawthorne@maacenter.org<br />MAA Center is now on Twitter – follow us @maacenterBill Hawthornehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17899793626412072727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7485743756949189488.post-37597014077506794052009-04-04T06:20:00.000+11:002009-04-04T06:20:00.000+11:00Hi, Magician, check out my comment on one of your earlier (January, I think) blogs...just in case you weren't inclined to look for new comments on older blogs. The probable pyramid-scheme wannabe and the insecure jerk who probably carries a measuring tape with him into public restrooms clearly have nothing of substance with which to engage your comparatively enormous intellect, so I thought you might like to hear from someone who recognizes this reality.<BR/>LauraAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7485743756949189488.post-77909186296959689472009-04-04T05:56:00.000+11:002009-04-04T05:56:00.000+11:00Hi, Magician,<BR/>You are highly articulate and you have an impressive range of expression. Although I have only read your 2009 blogs so far, I came away from them thinking several things, one of which was, if this person were to take up the work of writing novels, they would be riveting, incisive and uncompromising, and I'd like to read every one of them.<BR/>Other things that your blogs leave me musing over... it was recently that I actually heard a program on National Public Radio about 'white matter' in the brain--a physiological feature, like a network of neurons or synapses or something, most people have modest amount,though some have greater; this greater amount allows a person to link possibly disparate ideas--often a feature of great creativity (if not necessarily a requirement for it), as well as the ability to tell a convincing lie---and that, in great part, because of the ability to project the possible outcomes of various 'tales told'. I have this quality myself--and I've certainly needed it, growing up in a household with a mother who has borderline personality disorder. But this feature, underscoring my first thought, would suit someone well for the writing of fiction. I'm starting to apply myself to that endeavor--on the second drafts of two books, and hope for only one more rewrite before I get them out into the world. But that's a tangent...<BR/>The other thing that caught my attention was from an earlier blog about multiple identities converging. Perhaps some of your 2008 blogs would further elucidate your circumstances there, but I had a similar thing go on awhile back. What had started as a kind of coping mechanism (note the so-called 'mother' I got in some cosmic lotto gone awry) refined itself into a sort of dangerous (in my case) dual reality. A particular event forced me to deal with the identities between which I had been 'switching'. It was scary, because one of the two I had created for myself was the Me I would rather have been, had it not been for the persistent exposure to hard-core pornography by my 'mother' for several years before I even hit puberty, plus other totally inappropriate things that shouldn't happen between someone in a position of authority and their dependent. So I had the one identity I invented, which selectively chopped out the hated things I would rather not have known (at least at her hands), and the other Me that absorbed her twisted burdens. Finally, as you so beautifully said, "The smoke is fading, and the mirrors are disappearing one by one." If that's where you are, you probably will soon know who you are. I was pretty freaked out when it came down to the crunch for me, but I was greatly heartened by something else--inwardly the alignment actually made me feel less pervious to damage from outside myself; but even more importantly, finding out that the new, integrated Self I was living with was not a fixed or static item---knowing where I was honestly starting from was just a beginning. It was, and continues to be, up to me to review, hone, and actively create my identity--every day, if I so choose. No dramatic 're-creations', but deliberate, keenly aware living. I may have refuse and fallout in my life's portrait that I would not have chosen for myself if I could just invent my autobiography, but at least it is mine--and, increasingly, I have the feeling my future is, too.<BR/>Hang in there. You sound like somebody the planet is better off for having on it.<BR/>LauraAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7485743756949189488.post-36152534181090013662009-02-28T10:11:00.000+11:002009-02-28T10:11:00.000+11:00hey man<BR/>http://blatantselfabuse.blogspot.com<BR/><BR/>i clicked yoru ads<BR/>now click mine (y)Andyhttp://blatantselfabuse.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7485743756949189488.post-9601197134935784582009-02-18T22:54:00.000+11:002009-02-18T22:54:00.000+11:00cliff drops in and says,<BR/><BR/>i agree with ur gf<BR/><BR/>ur a very sweet boy<BR/><BR/>lol<BR/><BR/>u emo slit cutting wrist boyAlphamalenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7485743756949189488.post-27880250983488835412009-02-18T21:12:00.000+11:002009-02-18T21:12:00.000+11:00hi...<BR/>its strange how you always say just the right things.<BR/>yeah...<BR/>im here today to apologise...<BR/>and...theres the saying...better late than never.<BR/>so...<BR/>sorry matt.<BR/>and don't forget.<BR/>in the end, you're a sweet boy.Esther.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7485743756949189488.post-43120205674502302802009-01-04T02:47:00.000+11:002009-01-04T02:47:00.000+11:00I think the concerns you've discussed belong to many generations-- we just have different perspectives depending upon our age. I have hope, though, because every generation does something to address the problems of the day. When I get too pessimistic about the world, I remember that the world has been "going to hell in a handbasket" for generations. . .but we're still here, still making progress, still addressing issues, still trying to make a difference. <BR/><BR/>I must say that capitalism is not purely evil, though. Without it, we lose many freedoms. <BR/><BR/>I appreciate the thought you've put into this post.angelinabeadalinahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13695157801736043777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7485743756949189488.post-2894436854211036612008-12-23T08:04:00.000+11:002008-12-23T08:04:00.000+11:00before watching this movie I hope there will be many tense scenes such as removing the blood, although there are some parts that are quite tense, but the end of the story of this movie does not satisfy me. like other movies in the film. good player will always be luckySangkaisarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04766108929137491208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7485743756949189488.post-62468229398607208582008-12-23T07:52:00.000+11:002008-12-23T07:52:00.000+11:00PG ...
