This was not the plan when I started smoking. Everyone was doing it. I felt sophisticated and cool and like I fit in with the elite. And now, here I am…my health is in danger; I don’t even want to know what my lungs look like. I even avoid going to the doctor for check ups in fear of what horrible thing they’ll tell me about what smoking, chewing, cigars or whatever form I’ve been ingesting nicotine and all the poisons associated with it has done to me. Some of my friends avoid me because I smell like an old smoke stack. My house smells of the stench of nasty old rotted out filters and the smell of old cigarette smoke clings to the walls. Don’t even talk about my car. I’ve tried quitting a hundred times or I haven’t tried at all. I wanted to be smug and say “Hey, I can quit any time I want, I just don’t want to quit so I don’t have to”…and yet here I am. I feel like a loser who can’t even control this one thing. And my hair…don’t even get me started on what my hair smells like. The texture of it used to be so healthy and now it just looks and smells like limp, smoke infested straw. My face used to be so smooth and now I have lines around my mouth and I look like a caricature of the person I used to be. I blow second hand smoke to anyone who is around me, even my own children, without even giving it a second thought. I can’t get up in the morning without a cigarette or some chew or a cigar or some kind of nastiness. I’ve spent a ton of money on cigarettes and now stop smoking aids and nothing stops me. If I quit I’m afraid I’ll lose my ever lovin’ mind or gain a thousand pounds. WELL WELCOME TO THE CLUB MY FRIEND…YOU’VE COME TO THE RIGHT PLACE! We completely and fully understand every single thing you are feeling…we felt the same way ourselves and found a way out without pills or patches or expensive gum. And THE WAY OUT DOES NOT HAVE TO BE A VEIL OF TEARS! IT’S ACTUALLY KIND OF FUN AND EXCITING!!! I know you want to shoot us for just saying that but it’s true. All those feelings of self pity and demoralization are going to be replaced by self esteem and well being. Many of the effects of smoking ARE REVERSABLE! You will start getting well just 20 minutes after you finish your last cigarette. And a whole new way of life will be waiting for you. We promise. If you will put aside ALL YOUR OLD BELIEFS and prejudices and follow this program to the letter, you will join hundreds of people who have quit just like you and would never consider smoking again. I’d love to guarantee the results but you and I both know that’s nonsense. You’ve - 4 - spent enough of your life having quick fix promises that you’ll stop smoking in 30 minutes for just one small price fail only to feel hopeless again. Nope, this isn’t going to take 30 minutes or one day. It’s going to be a 2 week process of self discovery, education and evaluation. And then it’s over. By the time we’re done with you, smoking will never be the same and even if you do try to go back to smoking, we seriously doubt that you’ll really want to. As you go through this process, you may need our email support, and it is certainly available to you. But with or without that support, you can work this system and have excellent results. It has worked for lots of folks before you and it can work on you too. A Note From Debi Hi there and welcome! I have high hopes and big plans for you. My story is this book, but I wanted to chime in here and congratulate you for taking this gigantic step. It’s just a matter of time before you will become one of those cranky non smokers who always give you a dirty look. I have complete faith in the system and in your ability to have success with it. So let me talk to that little voice in your head that is telling you that this is a bunch of crap and that you just tried some plan that won’t work. Hello there, little voice. This is Debi and I’m here to tell you that You are so wrong.

  • The Reason Given for the UK's Decision to Float Sterling Was the Weight of International Short-Term Capital
    - Issue No. 181 No. 190, July 6, 1972 The Pound Afloat: The reason given for the U.K.'s decision to float sterling was the weight of international short-term capital movements which, despite concerted intervention from the Bank of England and European central banks, had necessitated massive sup­ port operations. The U.K. is anxious that the rate should quickly o.s move to a "realistic" level, at or around the old parity of %2. 40 - r,/, .• representing an effective 8% devaluation against the dollar. A w formal devaluation coupled with a wage freeze was urged by the :,I' Bank of England, but this would be politically embarrassing in the }t!IJ light of the U.K. Chancellor's repeated statements that the pound was "not at an unrealistic rate." The decision to float has been taken in spite of a danger that this may provoke an international or European monetary crisis. European markets tend to consider sterling as the dollar's first line of defense and, although the U.S. Treasury reaffirmed the Smithsonian Agreement, there are fears throughout Europe that pressure on the U.S. currency could disrupt the exchange rate re­ lationship established last December. On the Continent, the Dutch and Belgians have put forward a scheme for a joint float of Common Market currencies against the dollar. It will not easily be implemented, since speculation in the ex­ change markets has pushed the various EEC countries in different directions. The Germans have been under pressure to revalue, the Italians to devalue. Total opposition to a Community float is ex­ pected from France (this would sever the ties between the franc and gold), and the French also are adamant that Britain should re­ affirm its allegiance to the European monetary agreement and return to a fixed parity.

    CAS – 001M C.P. – P.L. 43 Coût des soins de santé et des dommages- intérêts liés au tabac Le 9 juin 2009 Monsieur Geoffrey Kelley Président Commission des affaires sociales Assemblée nationale Québec (Québec) G1A 1A3 Objet : Le projet de loi 43 : Loi sur le recouvrement du coût des soins de santé et des dommages-intérêts liés au tabac Monsieur le président, Au nom de l’Association pour les droits des non-fumeurs, je vous remercie beaucoup de l’occasion que vous nous offrez de témoigner devant vous sur le projet de loi 43 : la Loi sur le recouvrement du coût des soins de santé et des dommages-intérêts liés au tabac. Je vous félicite pour la décision de vous joindre aux autres provinces et territoires au Canada et d’entreprendre des démarches afin de tenir responsable les principaux fabricants de tabac au pays, non seulement pour avoir manqué à leur obligation d’informer le public sur la nocivité de leurs produits, mais surtout pour avoir mis en œuvre une vaste conspiration visant à jeter le doute au sein des législateurs et du public sur les véritables dangers de l’usage du tabac. À notre avis, cette initiative ne vise pas à savoir si les fabricants de tabac ont commis ou non une telle fraude mais plutôt de connaître l’ampleur de celle-ci. Il suffit simplement de jeter un coup d’œil aux documents publiés à ce jour par différentes instances juridiques pour comprendre que la communauté de la santé, dont nous faisons partie, n’exagère en rien lorsqu’elle qualifie d’odieux le comportement de l’industrie du tabac au Canada.
