Health Related Information

This site may contain heath-related information or links to health-related information. The content provided by Subaquasternalrubs.com is for information purposes only and is in no way intended to be a substitute for medical consultation with a qualified professional. Subaquasternalrubs.com encourages Internet users to be careful when using medical information. If you are unsure about your medical condition, consult a physician. If you feel you are having an emergency, dial your local ambulance/emergency number, i.e. 911, or proceed to the nearest hospital/Emergency Department. Although we carefully review our content, Subaquasternalrubs.com cannot guarantee nor take responsibility for the medical accuracy of documents we publish, nor can Subaquasternalrubs.com assume any liability for the content of Web sites linked to/from our site.

Comment Policy

In submitting a comment, use a working email address that belongs to you so that we may contact you with a question or clarification. Subaquasternalrubs.com does not collect email addresses or use them for any other purpose. If you use a false email, and your content is otherwise questionable, your comment may be deleted. The software will never show your email address publicly, so you are safe from stalkers and spam-bots.
Through your use of this blog, you agree that you will not use this site to post any material which is knowingly false and/or defamatory, abusive, malignant, vulgar, hateful, harassing, obscene, profane, threatening, invasive of a person's privacy, or otherwise in violation of any law.
Do not attempt to post comment spam. (It's very unlikely you'll succeed anyways, so why not save us both the trouble? Well actually you're not causing me any trouble, as your comment will automatically be deleted, but you are wasting my bandwidth…) Advertising a site by putting up unrelated mumbo jumbo is not tolerated. If it's not relevant to the blog, don't link it.
Stay on topic. Comments are not a forum by which you can express your opinions independent of the issues being discussed relative to a particular post. If you want a forum for expressing your own opinions, then start your own weblog.
Only post comments under the entry to which they correspond.
If comments for an entry have been closed, you may contact me via e-mail, but do not attempt to post a comment under another entry.
All e-mail received by Subaquasternalrubs.com is considered intended for publication unless otherwise indicated in the initial message from the writer. Please don't send attachments.
Subaquasternalrubs.com reserves the right to edit all e-mail and posted comments for content, clarity, and length.
Bandwidth is expensive. The comment space is reserved for comments that relate to the topic of the post . You may not reprint lengthy text from your own works or those of others. You may link to them.
Watch your language. If you feel that your point cannot be made without the use of strong language (certainly a legitimate view), you may use asterisks to mask your f***ing language.
No flaming. Lively discussion is encouraged, but personal attacks against me, my family, my friends, or other commenters are forbidden.

Depending on the severity of your offense, I may edit your comment, delete your comment, ban you from commenting, ban your town from commenting, ban your country from commenting, or report you to your ISP.

I reserve the right to change or add to these rules at any time. This is my site, so my freedom of speech trumps yours. That being said, if you are well-behaved and follow these rules, your free speech will not be silenced or altered. (Modified from txfx.net/about)

Copyrighted Material

I am making such material available in my efforts to advance understanding of environmental, political, human rights, economic, scientific, and social justice issues, etc. and make every effort to include appropriate credit, hyperlinks, and author/publication information.

Privacy Policy

Our Privacy Policy is designed to assist you in understanding how we collect and use the personal information you provide to us and to assist you in making informed decisions when using our site.

Here's the summary: We sometimes collect personal information, but we never use it for marketing purposes. You won't receive any spam if you leave your email address here.

What Information Do We Collect?

When you visit our Web site you may provide us with two types of information: personal information you knowingly choose to disclose that is collected on an individual basis and Web site use information collected on an aggregate basis as you and others browse our Web site.

Personal Information You Choose to Provide

You may browse our Web site without providing any personal information. However, in order to post to our Web site, we require certain personal information, such as your name and email address.

Web Site Use Information

Similar to other Web sites, our Web site utilizes a standard technology called "cookies" (see explanation below, "What Are Cookies?") and Web server logs to collect information about how our Web site is used.

Broadly speaking, we use personal information for purposes of administering our Web site. We do not use it for marketing purposes.

What Are Cookies?

A cookie is a very small text document, which often includes an anonymous unique identifier. When you visit a Web site, that site's computer asks your computer for permission to store this file in a part of your hard drive specifically designated for cookies. Each Web site can send its own cookie to your browser if your browser's preferences allow it, but (to protect your privacy) your browser only permits a Web site to access the cookies it has already sent to you, not the cookies sent to you by other sites.

How Do We Use Information We Collect from Cookies?

Cookies are used to store your Web site preferences (i.e. your username and password for the Friends Only section). We do not use cookies for Friends Only user tracking.

Sharing Information with Third Parties

We do not share your personal information with any third parties, unless required by valid governmental authority, such as a court order.
