Look….., yeah…….look at to….

He…he…he…he…great….great….

C’mon….!!

We watch him!!!!

YEssss….!

Harry Narto Puryantoro is imaging by himself, at this time he is enjoying smoke

resultant of absorbing from cigarette which is being pinched between his both fingers with,

and then exhaling smooooooke to the sky whiles his eeeeeeeYes……open and clooooose….

Bleeeeeeeoooo…

Unexpectedly, …Harry Narto Puryantoro is awakened

2 – in vain!!!

Satan has neglected me.

Bhubaneshwar boy behind the cigarette,
puffing out his Old Town dreams;
Black grooves on his fingers,
dark as Maalisaahi streets.

Smirk on his face, bitterness in mouth,
Cuttack in the north, Bhubaneshwar to the south;
Open pits and uncovered drains,
sweeping away the filth from sinful rains.

A city of non-believers, slimy serpents,
a forgotten past and of course,
Gods staring out of walls,
armed with swords and tridents,
from their seats lest they fall.

The glowing cigarette, a riot in the night,
like a ghostly galleon in space,
circled by puffs swirling in the dim light;
When Gods creep indoors and Demons rule the roads,
darkness ushers in a tormenting sight.

Our boy walks alone, prince of the dark streets;
Pleading Gods and fearful Ghosts brushed arrogantly aside;
Bhubaneshwar on the tip of his cigarette,
the kid lights it up with that knowing smile in his eyes.

A man from Antequera has died after lighting up a cigarette, something you should never do after using rubbing alcohol. The man was engulfed in flames as he walked down the street and lit his smoke, having just used the rubbing alcohol to relieve his aches and pains. Intially police thought he had intentionally set himself alight but further investigation revealed he had just purchased the pain remedy from a local store.

Constipated? Just can’t wait to let out a good poop? There are a couple of common household items/ingredients that will do the job for you! Here is a list of great laxatives:

• Foods high in fiber; Mayo Clinic has a great list of these kinds of foods. You know they say that “an apple a day will keep the doctor away,” it really is true! You can fight that bloated feeling by eating foods high in fiber regularly.
• Juices, such as apple juice and pear juice, will help fight constipation.
• Coffee, we all should know, is a natural laxative. This is because of the high caffeine content in coffee, which relaxes your bowels. Voila! Let it out!
• Cigarettes (if you smoke, of course) are also a great laxative. I know that sometimes I need to put out my cigarette in order to make it to the bathroom in time!
• Water, which makes up about 70 percent of your body, needs to be ingested regularly to avoid constipation. Water is a necessity of life, and without it, a huge affect is constipation.
• Ginger, a root sold in most grocery stores, also helps your digestive system.
• Cayenne Pepper is a good laxative that most people have in their house.
• Nuts, such as almonds, help your digestive system. If you are trying to lose weight, almonds also fight hunger.

These common household items will be sure to cure your constipation and clean out your body! If you still have issues, you probably should go see a doctor ASAP. Constipation may be a side effect of an illness or pregnancy.

I quit smoking four years ago, but before that, I was a dedicated smoker for a solid decade. Luckily, I never had any Mac trouble that would necessitate a warranty replacement during those 10 years, or I might’ve been out of luck. Apple (s aapl) has denied Applecare warranty service in at least two separate instances due to the effects of secondhand smoke, according to Consumerist.

In both cases, smoke was to blame for repairs not performed, but not because the malfunctions the computers suffered were due to damage related to cigarette smoke. Instead, the fact that the Macs had existed in houses where people smoked had resulted in the machines being labeled health risks, which was grounds for repair personnel to refuse to work on them.

It’s unclear whether or not smoking is specifically covered in the terms of Applecare, but it appears that the grounds upon which service refusals have been made is the classification of nicotine as a hazardous substance on the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) list. At least, that’s what one of the people affected heard from Steve Jobs’ office, though she clearly disputes the logic used in that justification:

Dena [from Jobs' office] did advise me that nicotine is on OSHA’s list of hazardous substances and Apple would not require an employee to repair anything deemed hazardous to their health. However, OSHA also lists calcium carbonate (found in calcium tablets), isopropyl alcohol (used to clean wounds), chlorine (used in swimming pools), hydrogen peroxide (also used to clean wounds), sucrose (a sugar), talc (as in powder), etc…as hazardous substances.

Consumerist couldn’t get an Apple representative to make an official statement regarding the company’s policy on Macs used in a smoking environment, but considering the similarity of both responses to the inquiries of the two people affected, Apple repair personnel at least reserve the right to refuse service, even if they don’t always choose to exercise that right.

As a longtime smoker (who never smoked indoors anywhere I lived, mind you), and as someone who’s had to get the cigarette smell out of at least one car before selling it, I can see people objecting to working on a computer that’s been saturated with smoke for an extended period. The smell isn’t pretty, and it might feel like the machine might be hazardous to your health — feel being the key word.

I’m no scientist, but I’m assuming it isn’t like the Apple techs cracked the case and a puff of smoke shot out. Is there really a significant danger associated with the inert remnants of what smoke leaves behind? I remain highly skeptical. Anyone else ever run into this excuse for refusing an otherwise valid Applecare repair?

Was Going Down An Alleyway And This Made A Good Picture, Its Nice That The Everyday Object Or Rubbish Can Create A Good Picture.

Cigarette Ghazal

Brad Land compares it to a bottle rocket in his memoir

as it crashes Into the black pavement, his lit cigarette.

Marlboro Reds taste like harsh and stiff as the smoke burns

the cowboy’s eye while the ashes fall from the tip of the cigarette.

Blue lights appear in the rear view mirror, the car pulls

off the road. He writes a ticket for releasing the cigarette.

French tip nails look glossy as they form a V around the filter

directing it to lips that crave the nicotine of a cigarette.

Beth, are you smoking in the girl’s room? I watch as it cyclones

down into the sewer, remorseful of my drowning cigarette.

The main health risks smoking cigarettes pertain to sicknesses of the cardio system, in particular heart attack, heart disease, sicknesses of the respiration tract such as Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary illness, asthma, emphysema, and cancer, especially lung cancer and cancers of the larynx and tongue.

An individual’s increased risk of contracting illness is directly in proportion to the length of time a person continues to smoke as well as the amount smoked. However, if someone stops smoking, then these possibilities gradually decrease as the damage to their body is repaired. A year since quitting, the chance of contracting heart disease is half that of a continuing smoker. The health issues of smoking are not uniform across all smokers. Risks vary according to amount of tobacco smoked, with those who smoke more at greater risk. Light smoking cigarettes is still a health issue. Similarly, it doesn’t cut back the hazards.

Another difficulty with folk is alcoholism. The term’alcoholism’ refers to a disease known as alcohol dependance syndrome, the most severe stage of a group of drinking Problems which starts with splurge drinking and booze abuse. Alcohol tribulations occur at different levels of severity, from meek and provoking to potentially terminal. Although alcohol reliance ( alcoholism ) is the most grim stage, less relentless drinking Problems can also be deadly.

The problem of alcohol and smoking of cigarettes is curable but for somebody to be treated has to have a sincere desire to fetch help. Alcoholics and those that are into smoking of cigarettes, if are pushed into treatment by social pressure or forced to quit by circumstances infrequently achieve success in the long run. Even most alcoholics who find help on their own volition have 1 relapse before they obtain long-term sobriety.

Types fo Cigarettes – Does Smoking Cigarettes Cause Mesothelioma?

Gainsbourg sans fumée, est-ce donc bien raisonnable ? Non-fumeur résolu, pourfendeur acharné du tabac, je ne peux pourtant pas dissocier l’image du chanteur de ses fatales volutes blondes. Ce regret m’est amer, mais la gauloise a fusionné avec le chanteur à mesure que son Némésis, Gainsbarre, supplantait l’auteur délicat de la “Javanaise”. Il les fumait avec passion, elles l’ont consumé sans reconnaissance du ventre. Aussi, le dessinateur et réalisateur Joann Sfar doit fulminer de voir que la fumée de cigarette ne sort plus de la bouche du chanteur sur les affiches de son dernier film, le biopic “Gainsbourg, vie héroïque”. En effet, la Métrobus, la société en charge des campagnes publicitaires dans les transports parisiens, vient de transformer le pompier Gainsbarre en homme aux poumons neufs, conformément à la loi Evin. Dans ce bas monde, force reste à la loi. Rien de bien grave en somme, si ce n’est que la tendance est lourde.

La retouche numérique est reine

En avril dernier, Jacques Tati, ce cinéaste odieux à la solde de Morris & co, avait déjà perdu sa pipe, retoquée par les riants services juridiques de la RATP et de la SNCF, en pleine promotion de l’exposition de la BNF « Jacques Tati, deux temps trois mouvements ». Un événement en guise de confirmation, car il y a quatre ans, la clope de Jean-Paul Sartre avait été gommée sur les affiches de la bibliothèque chère à François Mitterrand. Mais n’en déplaise à “Messieurs les censeurs”, le symbole visuel de la cigarette importe peu. Elle a tant fusionné avec ces personnages que l’imaginaire collectif prend le relais. Bien ancré, il supplante sans mal ces pathétiques tentatives d’aseptisation, qui flirtent avec le négationnisme culturel.

Des précautions étouffantes

Moralité, le principe de précaution n’en finit plus. Mais jouons franc-jeu, allons jusqu’au bout de cette logique et prétendons, pour commencer, que Françoise Sagan n’a jamais abusé du gin. Tentant, mais cela ne changera pas le sort des -nombreux- alcooliques anonymes. Puis cédons à la tentation du gros buzz qui tache. Et là, je tiens un scoop, Thierry Henry n’a jamais fait de main contre l’Irlande. De peur d’être accusés à tort, les footballeurs contrits par l’enjeu vont donc, à l’avenir, rivaliser d’honnêteté. Finalement, ce constat risible est très rassurant. La méthode Coué a de beaux jours devant elle.

Non-filter cigarettes are the most ancient form of cigarettes. They can be smoked from either end. As the name implies, they don’t have a filter. They are straightforward to inhale, as there is not any resistance from a filter. Actual smoke intake is much higher than normal cigarettes. These types of cigarettes are relatively inexpensive as compared to ordinary filter cigarettes. As such, discount non-filter cigarettes are offered at even more economic rates.

Non-filter cigarettes have a robust taste and are not recommended for first time fag users. Non-filter cigarettes are about 30- forty percent more damaging re nicotine content. This startling revelation hinders a large number of folk from inhaling them. To help and attract users to this non-filters, manufacturers offer great rebates.

For regular, non-filter cigarette smokers, smoking isn’t a particularly expensive habit. Cigarette online trends have made makers maintain homogenized costs on these products. Because of this, a customer may select any brand that suits their taste. Producers offer discount non-filter cigarettes to influence shoppers to switch brands.

A number of non-filter fag smokers are regular smokers. This is because these cigarettes have a strong taste and are highly addictive. Non-filter cigarettes are shorter in length and can’t be smoked till the end, as they get really hot in comparison to filter types. For this reason, smokers simply light more non-filter cigarettes. Using discount non-filter cigarettes can financially sustain increased consumption.

The majority of non-filter Marlboro smokers choose discount non-filter cigarettes, as these are typically available in cartons. This offers a constant source of cigarettes. As such, these purchases also get rid of the likelihood of running out of cigarettes. This helps save cash because single pack purchases are comparatively more expensive. Discount non-filter cigarette offers are available at local stores and on the internet. Relying upon the source, discount rates may vary.

Export Cigarettes – The first thing to understand

(From my blog in Bahasa Indonesia, yep, I’m not a native English user, so don’t mind my language.)

Would you believe in anyone who told you something that they don’t really know? If you ask me, there’s a huge percentage that I wouldn’t. One day a friend came in to my room while I was pumping tar in to my lunge, and as any other good natured, well intended person, she told me that I should quit smoking. When I asked her about the reason, she paused for a moment and then elaborated some standard reasoning that I would have heard from about any other person, some of it written on the package… alright to put it simply: you’l die sooner than you should, and you would have it terribly.

But who care? The number of smokers doubled each day as new born babies being pulled out from the heavenly womb. Hail to the factories, you won’t have to create the market, just brew something acceptably tasted, have a huge advertisement budget, and voila! All you have to do is sit back, watch the cashflow… well, flowing in days, and months, and years, in decades, and we’ll have ourselves a new empire. Okay, it might not as simple as that, for those of you who are in the industry, you can tell me more of it.

But on the edge of all those income are the consumers, people like me who, once, spent two packs of cigarettes each day, and we have to cope with all the promises of consequencies. The word “once” doesn’t mean that I have stopped smoking entirely, it means that I don’t smoke two packs of cigarettes per day anymore, these days I’d take less than two, well… more if the day is a day when I should keep my head from being banged on to the wall… by myself.

So, here’s the confession, and you are having it from a smoker: smoking is painful. Of course, when you hang out with fellow smoke blowers, one take of the air could be seen as one take on heaven’s bliss. As you might have known, the bliss would include around 4000 chemicals, some of which are highly toxic, and toxins would take its toll. When you hang out with fellow smokers, you see bliss, when you live with fellow smokers you’ll see heaving chests, you’ll hear the complains, and share the pain.

When you lie down side by side, telling one another about one of those days when you feel like you’re out of breath, sweating and shaking, one would think that it’s a pretty sight. Well it is, especially when both side talk about quitting, really mean it, and then forget about the whole idea right after dinner.

There are many methods of quitting smoking, you name it. NRT (Nicotine Replacement Therapy) where you would have nicotine patches pasted on your skin, nicotine nasal spray, nicotine inhaler, even bubble gum. A combination of anti depressants and councelling is also available, in certain countries that is, where people already have a deeper insight about solving their health problems. Furthermore, this is the age of information, and there are easiliy accessible informations about quitting smoking provided on all kind of media, the supplement to all the words of wisdom that your spouse and doctor would throw at you. Although they might speak the truth, but they seems to lack the credibility of someone possessing the truth. Hard to imagine your clean cut, sterilized doctor would share the same perspective on the burden of joyful sin. As you are leaving the practice, you would say “what does he knows?” And those ways should fail.

Devine shock theraphy (that is: death) would have an instant effect, but everything instant is instant. When you hear about a relative being admitted to the hospital and the devastating news of lung cancer reached everyone’s ear, you would be dumbfounded, 10 minutes at the most, then these words would have flashed through your mind “he’s just being unlucky.” And you will spend the minutes of your after lunch talking about the guy’s misfortune while inhaling and exhaling fresh smoke from fresh cigarettes.

Then one day, a well intended friend would come to ask you the same question, again, “why don’t you quit smoking?” and you would say “I want to, once in a while, but I can’t, I tried many ways, but I failed”. Even when death is creeping in around the last corner, human, ever resourceful, would try to deviate, and when they fail, they would ask “why me?”

When you think of it, smoking is a preventable cause of death, whether it’s of toxin or the huge accumulative amount of money that went to smoke instead of nutrition. So why is it so hard to be separated from it? Here’s some contemporary reasoning from a smoker, and you’d be better off believing it.

First of all, there are this surrounding factors. The situation, condition, the people, the community around you who contributed to your conception of smoking, and to your admission as a smoker. There’s this constant battle still going on right now, and the winner will be determined by the marketing strategies applied. Most events in developing countries are sponsored by cigarette producing companies, even huge sport events, that would only have the contradictive relationship to the virtue of smoking. Kids watched these events, and they laughed when a teacher scold them as she found them skipping classes, crammed at one far flunged corner of the schoolyard, and had a foursome intercourse with a single cigarette. They were taken to the office where they would be punished as they watched assorted packs of cigarettes on the tables of the teachers – fellow smokers.

As you caught yourself as a smoker, it would become an interpersonal issue. Presently, in some places across the world smokers are limited to certain confined spaces of their own, whether by written law or by ethic. In certain social gatherings it should be impossible to smoke at all. But certain kind of people would find their own certain kind of group. Smokers will join smokers, and when you smoke among fellows, the subjective truth can turn to objectivity. You would have all the reasons to continue smoking as the night flies, packs after packs, and you would feel utterly stupid if you don’t smoke, because all of you would realize that there’s an alien in the group, and sometimes it’s just because you don’t know what to do with your fingers and your lips, and you become too concerned of it to even make any kind of contribution to the conversation.

There’s also the muse effect, and it’s quite popular. Ever seen a movie where the character would slip a cigarette between fingers while doing something that can be classified as a creative process? Whether it’s about a writer pondering in front of his typewriter, a detective reconsidering the evidence so far, or a painter, with the passive hand in front of his lips and the active hand jugling fantasies on canvas. Smokers would argue that smoking can increase their ability to think, to process information inside their mind and to produce anything. And being deprived of cigarette could hamper the process or even halt it entirely. Chemicals aside, I would say that this is more like an urban myth. The truth can be created and accepted as more people join the club. There are a lot of creative people who don’t smoke, but of course coping with their own issues. I know someone who would stand upside down on two hands with the believe that the more blood runs toward the head, the better it will function. Although I realize it is more to do with oxygen, but I accept the fact that everyone have their own eccentricity, so I just leave him be, as long as he stays away from my cigarettes.

Some people also consider smoking as an escapeway from stress. When problems mounted you will need a kind of release method. I assume that this inhaling and exhaling process that brings the concept together. But as the harm being done, smoking will bring accumulative headaches in time. With money to spent and illness to anticipate, it’s just not going to get any better.

Many people have seen smoking as a kind of lifestyle, this can be traced back to 1600s when it became a part of European culture, until 1940’s before anybody found out of its hazardous effects. I say that you can sell rotten meat if you know the way and have the stomach to do it, so even as the poisons were revealed, as long as you have the fund to play with the information and do counter campaigns, you’ll rake money. Talk about campaign and advertisement, you can even sell religion these days, so creating a notion of lifestyle is a no-brainer’s job, albeit still a brilliant one. In the end, as the consumers drag their feet from the chaotic stream and look in to themselves, they’ll find no style, only regrets.

Regrets would signify the lowest point of a smokers life. Regrets in a certain point of our life, gradually appeared and gradually intensified as the bad things gradually turn to worse and our healthy mind nullified. Sometimes I imagine myself reaching early forties, upon accepting the result of my medical check up, silently drop the cigarette from my fingers, and stood for minutes thinking about my life and my responsibility. Should I have a wife, what would I tell her? Should I tell her that I was sorry for this lung cancer and some other complications inside of me, and that cigarette is the greatest contribution to my situation? And how will I count the expenses for my children compare to my willingness and the need to stay alive? Regret is the bane of anyone’s life, but when it is on a prefectly avoidable cause like smoking, it will multiply.

So quit. No, it is not entirely about the method, it’s not about the planning, it’s not about that dubious software on your mobile phone that track your development and warn you about your quota. It’s about you, your determination and your capacity. A friend of mine, he was a heavy smoker, was playing a video game with a pack full of cigarettes in front of him. Suddenly, as the game finished he told me that he want to quit smoking, got up, left his cigarette pack behind, and pulled not a single stick eversince. We had lived together in a rented house so I knew how he had progressed, I even acted as the devil sometimes seduced him to smoke, to no avail.

Some other people tried a less sudden approach. Reducing the amount of cigarette consumed gradually each day, weeks, months, and eventually try to stop altogether. I tried this one, and failed. I had this preconception that each day I managed to reduce a single stick, I was elligible to reward myself in the evening. The thing is, I don’t do so well on math, so the reward went bigger than the result. Nevertheless, quitting smoking is still one of my primary concerns. There were days when I feel totally hard to breathe and failed to function effectively, those were the days where I vowed to quit. Remembering days such as these would help me to judge my own predicament and see what kind of man I have become, and the result is not so good.

No matter how hard you try to convince yourself of your own power, a little friendly nudge and support would make a difference. At least you have someone who sees the devil from certain perspective and determined how many blocks separated you from your doom. So when your doctor or someone close to you said something about you quitting smoking, there’s a good chance that they know what they are doing. Trust me I’m a smoker.

There are many few things of which I am intolerant. But cigarette smoking in public when a crowd is present comes close to (if not AT) the very top.

I will admit my stupidity for standing out in the cold for four hours to get free tickets to a 30-minute concert. But, that’s my perogative. I’m hurting no one but myself.

However, the sidewalk along the Keith Albee entrance is uber-crowded with my fellow Rascal Flatts groupies. And everytime someone gives into the nicotine urge, we ALL have to inhale the deathly carcinogens.

I understand it’s legal and ONLY legal to suck on cancer sticks outside (in most cases). But, it is just common courtesy to blow your smoke where no one else has to breathe it in. Today, in fact, there is a non-busy, two-lane street that separates us from the other, crowd-free side of the road. Please take your smell over there.

To top it off, a man, who I will refer to as Mr. Bud Light hat, steps out of the door behind me into my tiny cubby that is keeping me from the unbearable chill of the wind, and lights up, filling my personal bubble with intoxicating (not in a good way) fumes. So, to maintain my breathing, I step to the end of the sidewalk and not-nonchalantly (would that just be chalantly? Okay, no.) wave the smoke out of my face. And I may have even thrown in a forced cough or two.

For a few minutes, I watch Mr. Bud Light hat ingest toxic chemicals into his lungs. When he is done, old guy flips his butt (cigarette, that is) down on the ground. See below.

(a few more things about this photo: a) the girl on the right is the ballsy chick who, at about 3 hours into waiting, plopped her butt …. real one, that is …. down at the front of the line. I mean, really? Also, here you can see my little cubby in which I was standing. As you can see, it’s very personal-space invading.)

My problem with Mr. Bud Light hat, other than the blatant littering, is that only a few feet away stood this:

Yep! A place to dispose of your used cancer sticks! So, not only are you, Mr. Bud Light hat, filling others’ lungs with harmful carcinogens, but you’re making the streets we walk on ugly. Thanks.

Then, I turn around and see this:

The only thing I hate more than being surrounded by cigarette smoke is seeing adults blow their smoke around their own children. I can at least walk away. Children have no choice. This is appalling, unhealthy, inappropriate and careless. Parents need to be responsible and need to be held accountable for their actions.

Oh, and by the way, today is the Great American Smokeout. Epic. Fail.

Since I had a digital camera I was always dreaming of shooting smoke… Finaly last weekend I manage to… It was a long session done at home with almot no equipment that is required to make a real good quality images. Though I was full of positive expectations when I started working with them..

I tell you only one thing – I was trully impressed by the things that can be seen in the simple cigarette smoke. We never notice them as our eye is not that quick and cannot capture separate moments… When I finished the photos you can see here I had a strong feeling I was loosing my mind. The more I looked at each of them the more various forms I discovered… I think that everybody will see something unique in these (just like looking at the clouds).

So tell me – what do you see?
