pack and tied it in place. Within 15 minutes, the pain
had disap-peared and the swelling had lessened considerably. I kept
the pack on overnight, and when I removed it in the morning, the
swelling and redness had completely disappeared. The pain and
irritation of bee stings and mosquito bites is also wonderfully
relieved by this method.
Snake Bite
Urine packs should also be used immediately for poisonous snake bites.
Follow emergency first-aid instructions to inrise the wound and remove
venom, if possible. Then apply fresh normal urine to the wound and
secure a well-soaked urine pack over it. Keep pack wet until medical
help can be obtained.
Growths And Tumors
Armstrong reported in great length on the remarkable effects of urine
compresses in reducing and eradicating a wide variety of internal and
external tumors, cysts and abnormal growths.
1. Compresses should be used in combination with internal urine
therapy for treating any type of abnormal growth.
2. In preparing a compress, use a thick pad of clean white folded
cotton material (such as an old T-shirt).
3. Soak the pad in a container of fresh or old urine. Warm the urine
by pouring it into a glass container, then place the jar in a
container of hot water. While lying down, place wet compress over the
affected area and cover with a clean folded towel. Keep the compress
applied for as long as possible, reapplying warm urine as needed to
keep the compress wet. Urine compresses have also been reported to be
effective for many internal disturbances and for arthritic and
rheumatic pains.
Wounds, Burns And Abrasions
As so many research and clinical studies have shown, urea is a tremen-
dously effective anti-bacterial agent and an excellent healing
treatment for wounds and burns of all types. Use fresh, normal urine
for treating open wounds.
1. Saturate a thick gauze bandage or cotton pad with fresh urine,
place it over the wound 

In 1794, James Madison pointed out "the old trick of turning every
    contingency into a resource for accumulating force in the government."

I don't know any terrorists or foreign agents.
But the government seems to know plenty of people who are terrorists.

*   I was studying, alone at the school library, on the night of Jan 28.
*   At about 8:30 a large man, 6 feet tall, came up and shoved a paper in
*   front of me. It said 'subpoena' and had my name on it. He flashed what
*   looked like a badge and said 'We want you to come with us.'
*   
*   He had a gun in a holster at his waist.
*   
*   He took my left arm and handcuffed me to his right arm.
*   
*   Another man --- he also showed a gun --- came over and grabbed me
*   roughly by the right arm. They took me out to a dark burgundy car,
*   cuffed my hands in front of me and shoved me into the back seat.

comes, in which their conscience allows
them generally more rest than we might suppose, since they feel, in the
darkest recesses of their heart, that by the breach of their duty to the
individual, they have so much the better fulfilled that toward the
species, whose right is infinitely greater.
Because in the last resort, women exist solely for the propagation of
the race, in which their destiny is exhausted, they live altogether more
in the species than in individuals; in their heart they regard the
affairs of the species as more serious than those of the individual.
This gives to their whole being and action a certain frivolity, and
altogether a fundamentally different direction from that of the man,
from which cause arises the so frequent and almost normal want of
agreement in marriage.
Between men there is by nature merely indifference, but between women
there is enmity even by nature. It comes from the fact that the odium
figulinum, which with men is limited to their particular guild, with
women embraces the whole sex, since they have all only one trade. Even
when they meet one another in the street, they look at each other like
Guelfs and Ghibellines. Two women, moreover, on their first
acquaintance, encounter each other with more embarrassment and
dissimulation than two men in the like case. Hence the mutual
complimenting of two women appears much more ridiculous than that of two
men. Further, while the man as a rule speaks with a certain
consideration and humanity, even to one who is far beneath him, it is
unbearable to see how proudly and brutally, for the most part, an
aristocratic woman conducts herself toward one in a lo
