The effects I experienced with this strain were great and pleasant, like one of those sleep hallucinations you'll usually get after a long day of driving across town. That and the fact that I woke up in the middle of bed screaming for help. If you are someone who gets hallucinations while driving in or out of cities and villages then you know what I'm talking about.
The first few puffs are not that strong but it soon results in some intense and excessive excrement.
The hallucinations did not end but had the typical "wish it was tomorrow before you died" syndrome which lasts until the brain gets used to the effects and will return to normality.
The effects did not last for more than 45 mins. As stated in my previous post on the subject, "it was like being hit in the mouth twice!"

Where lies the strangling fruit that came from the hand of the sinner I shall bring forth the seeds of the dead to share with the worms that gather the flesh with unbridled pride and desire, that, without fear, I may fill with their blood their graves and open their graves up to them when they will be devoured, for they say, 'It will be our glory to lay up the dead!'" - Isaiah 58.
That is all from the book on "Who is the God of my salvation?" This is a good book that you can find the entire scripture to for free online as well on BibleStudyHippos.com!

It was like nothing I've ever seen.
In the space between them it was a strange blackness, a void,
a void with no bottom.
It was all dark,

no one could see out into those abysses.
In between those abysses, just barely,
was a thing black. The blackness looked like
a piece of black metal. And it had a face that looked like
a piece of metal but it wasn't metal.
"a piece of black metal with a face. a piece of

No matter who you were or in what position you were,

What does the algorithm see in you? What do you want to express? What can you do to express it? What questions come up in it that you don't want the software to answer? There aren't even explicit answers yet. You can only take in what there is, and hope that your intuitions are wrong. What a terrible design choice. I'd rather my system does what it's programmed to; the rest of me is left guessing. So there you go: you get what you pay for. You'll know that it does what it's set out to do, and you'll feel safe with it. You may be surprised at the things that it can still make wrong, because the algorithm isn't built with the intention of providing one-way, one-sentence answers at all times. This is the basic idea behind the "what's not allowed" box in the software design review process. This applies also whenever there are questions you're not able to answer, or when you come up against constraints your implementation cannot meet. By design, the software should try to answer these questions at all times. For many developers, what makes things weird is that they're often forced to think hard about what the program does and what its limits and constraints mean, and then they

two plus two equals nine, so we are in reality nine plus seven = twelve)."
The number nine is the fourth number of the Hebrew alphabet and, according to Islamic history, represents the divine power of divinity. One might assume that there would be a significant amount of interest in a number nine in the 19th century. However, even with the advent of modern technology, many religious scholars did not expect the development to have such widespread significance, and the Jewish population never found itself to include a 9-9.
Rabbi Yitzchak Kedarz said of this fact: "The 9-9 is the ninth letter at the beginning of a Hebrew alphabet, its meaning, however, remained secret. By means of the Hebrew 10-9, the numbers 9, 12, and 20, we know the exact order of the symbols. This is the reason why the 9-9 corresponds to the name of Rabbi Ezra ben Solomon, who created the first written Torah in the year 533 B.C. We cannot tell with certainty where Rabbi Ezra ben Solomon was born. His father, Rabbi Baruch Solomon died in the year 709 B.C., when the people of the land occupied Jerusalem. But we know that his name is written the first time in the form of letters in the inscription on the door of his father's tomb in the city of Gibeah.

Fitter, happierMore productiveComfortableNot drinking too muchRegular exercise at the fitness centre.Carrying your weight around helps get your blood pressure up and keep you feeling strong (or at least happy). Exercise also helps you to sleep better and have less anxiety. You may even think: "Ah, I could go back home and sleep!" If not for having an exercise routine we wouldn't do anything of use. This advice is based on the observation of other studies in psychology and health that suggest exercising in a variety of activities might have a similar effect on health as exercise does with mental health. The results of these studies have been extremely clear - not only does exercise improve health, it improves fitness too."It also improves fitness. When your body is performing the highest level of performance possible it's good to be physically active.

He said he would be in contact with police if anyone else could help him.
His partner was not hurt, and he seemed to be unharmed in the worst of the storm.
"Just take a deep breath," he said as he stood up.
A man drove up behind him, and said he was a cop. The two walked closer, and he talked about the police.
He got up and walked away.
On the way back, the police stopped the vehicle. When another officer walked near them, the man pulled a gun and pointed it at them.

Second-inversion I chords, which don't classically have tonic function, are sometimes produced when the vocal melody is diminished by a fourth note as in: F.The 3-5 chord is generally considered by musicians to have more tonality in general, and is not easily represented by single-note chords as they are in the other modes. The three-note triad is the basis of the dominant I chord except for the minor. A triad is the foundation chord of these modes and can be considered the third dominant chord, or even the sixth. Triads are based on two chords: a fourth dominant and a second dominant chord, where the dominant chord is diminished on its fourth note.A triad has three principal triadals: the triad, which can be made up of two or more notes, and the triadin, which is made up of two or more triads.The two keys that have triads are C, and key 3. Keys of this order are dominant and tonic, so triads in all possible keys are based on triads of key 3.Some American and British musicians often take a tonic-dominant position, and play many of these songs in 3rd string minor. These "tongues" of dominant tonality are also often given the name "minor tonal harmony."

In 1857, Abraham Lincoln famously said "My head's too small" to win re-election. In the current presidential race, he seems to have said "Well, you are not going to let me win that job. I'll be seventy-five years old by the time we get to the inauguration."
What's going on? How did Abraham Lincoln become the President of the United States, who had a head so small? We think this might be because of his famous battle cry in the Lincoln Memorial, "I would not be the President had I not won," which Lincoln uttered during the Presidential Election campaign to help persuade others that a loss was not just a loss, but his victory.

theresa may: what if the project as a whole fails to satisfy the desired target? how will that hurt them in the longer-run?
theresa may: how will "them" feel?

2. No captain or umpire will call a ball for which the batsman does not feel the ball has touched his stumps, provided there is no attempt to steal the catch. The ball must be touched before being called unless the batsman feels the ball is not in his stumps. 3. When a ball is under-wicket or when it has already been called to a leg-before, the umpire or captain shall look on the next ball to the left as he shall see fit, and when he shall find the ball not to be under-wicket, he shall call it; and if the ball is to be called and the batsman feels, after having called it for two balls, that the ball has reached his stumps he shall, on a subsequent ball, call it, if he shall not see at then that the ball is to be called again and will not be passed by another batsman. 4. If any umpire or captain shall throw or throw-for in the line where a ball has been called to a stumps, either in the middle or down at length of the wicket which he sees fit, he shall throw it down in an alley or similar place if one is at hand.

Here are the rules of snooker:
The Snooker Court's rules for courts:
Each player starts with 3/5th of the ball in his bag when playing the game.
When a player leaves the bag, he must retrieve his 1st player piece.
When a third player player pieces leaves his bag, he must retrieve his 3rd player piece. This is what the player must do if he was not successful during their turn.
The player with the more expensive bag is called 'the Snooker'. When a player makes a successful play, he gets an additional piece to the bag.
When a bag is empty, a player cannot buy and the bag is returned to their opponent for free.
When the Snooker Court decides to give out a tie, you must make your bag a certain size!
It doesn't matter if the Bag is big enough or small, as long as both players have equal bag sizes the Snooker is not possible.

In one of the worst industrial accidents of all time, a company in Mexico named Pinto Plastics Corporation went into bankruptcy after they failed to sell the "green" aluminum used in their product to a Chinese company, resulting in many deaths and the injury of numerous others. The company was owned by Mexican billionaire Enrique Marichal. The company was owned by Marichal's close associate, Juan Pinto , a drug dealer from Guadalajara. I can't help but wonder if this was something that his girlfriend and their two sons thought was important enough to mention to the press. (Mariana said that the company 'brought about a wave of public outrage. They wanted to know if anyone knew anything about the accident, and they weren't informed of the fact that Marichal or his son had owned this company for years!) What happened next was pretty horrific . Pinto is accused of stealing more than 1,000 aluminum cans and dumping them into rivers where they sank, then dumping the aluminum cans into open fields. (As you know, not all of the cans found were recycled; Pinto's company was found dumping thousands of cans at a time.)

Here are the rules of baseball: Rule 1,000 rules: No one is allowed to use the word "loser" unless you mean that the team that was eliminated (with winning teams) actually beat the other team's team, or you want to be a nice person. Rule 3,111, the rule that says you should always be "fair and balanced," goes against the spirit of the game in that it implies that losing sucks. If you ever find yourself saying "loser," then just stop doing it. Rule 4,5 is more forgiving of teams that are in disarray rather than a true winner and winner's hell. Rule 5,001 says the team that wins the division or a wild card game can't win the World Series. We're not even halfway through our season yet so it's not like a real World Series game will be played this October unless the Cardinals go on a winning run. Rule 6.13 says winning in baseball is like winning in any other sport: It's good enough for the moment; it's a part of an individual's personality. It takes more than one thing to win a World Series game. It's just baseball. But the fact that someone can't lose is actually quite ironic and kind of silly in light of how much baseball is actually about getting to the World Series. The World Series itself is much better than most other sports

'Twas the night before ChristmasAnd all through the houseNot a creature was stirringNot even a fly could be seenA dark cloud hung overheadAnd in the middle of the nightThere wasn't any light at allThere was only the darknessAnd it was nightAnd all through the houseNot a light or bird was stirringNot a spirit was stirringThe night came and it was coldThere was only the darkness And all through the houseNot a spirit was stirring There was only the darkness And all through the houseThere was only one lightA night for the coldA lightless night for Christmas

This is the story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears: Goldilocks, the first dog, is a shy, curious dog. He loves to play with other dogs, run and jump. However his favorite thing to do is to play hide and seek. However, he is no match for the three bears. The bears attack Goldilocks everytime you enter the house, all the time, and they all attack him from the shadows. It's a sadistic story, but it is very funny, and it is quite a story if you get over that feeling that the characters will end up in jail because of this. It's also an amazing story in its own right, because it is only when you see the movie that this story really comes out. It's more of a "What if?" story. The Three Bears, in contrast, are beautiful animals. They can be friendly, funny, outgoing. They love to jump, run, jump and swim. So I hope you will enjoy this film, and keep coming back to it.

I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by ichor by a voodoo witch in the attic. But I'll be damned if they couldn't get it right."
"Oh dear, this is getting uncomfortable, Mrs. White," I mewled, and he paused. "I guess I'll have to do this sometime before it gets too intense." I looked out the window. A strange cloud of steam crept up into the house where they kept the car. I sat back in my chair and picked up the phone. This sounded like a real emergency. I had the number of the agent who sent me my report of the previous night, and I dialed the number: "Hello? Hello? I didn't mean to disturb your peace and tranquility during your sleep." "I see you had that, Mr. White. No need, but could I speak to one of your servants for a minute?" I heard a few seconds where nothing happened. The man who answered the phone said, with one voice, that he hadn't noticed anything unusual; that he knew I had the number the night before, and that he was expecting a report of your condition. I answered and he immediately hung up as if on cue – because I was an idiot!
I did get a few minutes' time to myself. I went to the window and watched some odd things move by.

Could Messi do it on a cold and rainy Tuesday night in Stoke?
I've thought and felt for ages about it. Every once in a great while I have gone for him on a cold and snowy night in Stoke City on a nice day without being aware that I was going to do this. I'd do it. But I would only do it on a cold and rainy Tuesday morning on a beautiful day (the Tuesday before game day). I'd try to go for a long ball before the game even started, but of course, I would leave it in the net. But there are very few things like Messi's trickery, and it makes me sad because this isn't something I think about. I don't think it'll happen.
