Exhibitions alive!
Live animal displays are a growing trend at the Australian Museum. A number of past and present exhibitons have seen live displays as an exciting addition tothe program offer. These exhibtions include Bats, Spiders!, Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibitions as well as Search & Discover and Surviving Australia.
Search & Discover
Search & Discover is the Australian Museum's hands-on resource centre, located on Level 2. The live animals which call this space home include lizards from semi-arid Australia, crustaceans found in mangroves, spiders, stick insects and other invertebrates. Visit us and compare the many preserved specimens to the live animals and answer your science questions using the resources.
Highlights of Search & Discover include trying to find the well camouflaged stick and leaf insects (also known as phasmids) that are displayed near the enquiry desk. For those 'Arachno-philes' be sure to check out the Sydney Funnel-web Spider, Atrax robustus, in its underground burrow beneath a rock, as well as other species of spider.
Surviving Australia
Located on level 2, between Kidspace and Dinosaurs, Surviving Australia is all about the animals and the habitats of Australia. Focusing on the weird and wonderful, the familiar and strange, Surviving Australia uncovers the key to the survival of Australian animals - and perhaps even ourselves!
Amongst the taxidermy specimens, pinned insects and audio visual displays lurk several living Australians that swim, scurry, slither and jump.
The Blue Edge section features a large aquarium featuring a range of marine invertebrates from the coastal waters of Sydney, including Mourning Cuttlefish, Sepia plangon. More live animals can be discovered in the Our Backyard section, including a Diamond Python, Morelia spilota spilota, Eastern Blue-tongue Lizard, Tiliqua scincoides scincoides, Green Tree Frog, Litoria caerulea, Striped Marsh Frog, Limnodynastes peronii and Wolf Spider, Lycosa sp. A large freshwater display in Adapt or Die is home to Freshwater Crocodiles, Crocodylus johnstonii and Krefft's River Turtle, Emydura Krefftii, named in honor of its discoverer and former museum curator; Gerard Krefft.
Special Exhibitions
Special exhibitions such as Bats, Spiders!, Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibitions as well as the World of Spiders craft activity as part of the 2010 April School Holiday Program have used live animals in order to demonstrate biological concepts and inspire visitors to better understand nature.

Project Instructions
Step: 1
Cut fabric as follows: two 11-inch x 14-inch rectangles; two 11-inch x 4-inch rectangles; one 14-inch by 4-inch rectangle.
Step: 2
Cover one side of each fabric piece with black tape.
Step: 3
Cut two 14-inch strips of black tape and use these to attach the bottom to the sides of the purse. Cut two 4-inch strips of black tape and use these to attach the smaller sides to the bottom. Cut four 11-inch strips of black tape and use these to hold the four corners together.
Step: 4
Using either a grommet hole punch or a regular hole punch, punch two holes in the front and two holes in the top back. These will be for the straps. Work keychain rings through the holes. Cover them with chrome tape if desired.
Step: 5

Why Study Art History at USC?
Bachelor of Arts in Art History
Art history combines the study of art with the study of culture. The undergraduate major provides general knowledge of the history of art and, through upper-division courses, specialized knowledge in a variety of areas. Majors are exposed to a diversity of theoretical approaches and encouraged to sharpen their critical and conceptual thinking skills. This foundation has enabled many art history graduates to pursue advanced degrees in nationally recognized programs, to enter diverse fields, and to pursue careers in the arts.
Minor in Art History
The art history minor offers a concentrated course of study that includes a variety of objects from different historical periods and cultures in relation to their makers, patrons, viewers and critics. Students in the minor are trained to analyze visual images and information through a process of intensive looking, reading, research and writing.
Minor in Visual Culture
A critical approach to art history is the departure point for the minor in visual culture, which is dedicated to the analysis of the visual arts, broadly defined to include fine art, film and television, photography and video, illustrated books, advertising, architecture, and design. Students in the visual culture minor elect from one of three concentrations: photography, film, and the reproduction of images; popular culture; or gender and sexuality.
Study Abroad
Students that study abroad gain a special perspective on the world beyond their own borders, which will benefit them throughout the rest of their lives. Studying abroad for a semester or year is one of the best ways to understand a different culture in a meaningful way. It is an experience that can have a profound impact on a student academically, personally, and professionally. USC College and the Art History Department encourages students to consider including studying abroad in their undergraduate experience. To further explore overseas studies, please visit the following website: http://www.college.usc.edu//overseas-studies/
Doctorate of Philosophy in Art History
The PhD program draws its strength from a dynamic and productive faculty in the fields of American, European, Latin American, and Asian art. Studying objects in their complex physical, cultural and intellectual contexts, our faculty is committed to a historically situated and theoretically nuanced approach to art history and visual culture. Faculty research interests include the institutional settings and politics of art; sexuality, gender, race, ethnicity, and national identity; the force field of architecture, sculpture and ritual; the viewer's role in representation; art and language, and the historiography of art history. As a faculty we are committed to a sustained dialogue between art history and its traditions, novel areas of inquiry, and innovative approaches. Our program features strong ties to the USC-Huntington Early Modern Studies Institute, the interdisciplinary initiative in Visual, Literary and Material Culture at USC, and the USC Visual Studies Graduate Certificate.

The thing keeping me here and in R is for a few reasons...
1. Our 3 kids
2. My fear of being alone
3. My lack of self-esteem and self-respect
& 4. For financial reasons
I love my wh but don't love or respect him the way a wife should a husband. And that's what I have realized over the past few months leading me to reconsidering R in the first place.
And to your question about how things were validated pre final dday I never really got validation either. I was suffering from PPD with anxiety and really didn't want validation because I felt like I didn't deserve to be happy. But at the same time h never really offered me validation. I have always been the initiator in all things between us, and he just follows along (not so much since his A). I have told him over and over and finally wrote it down for him to read what I need/want from him to show me he "wants/cherishes/Loves" me and gave him a few examples. But he still doesn't give them to me.
When I told him about the account on there and why I set up the account, he responded with "well would you follow thru with an affair, what would you do if someone wanted to meet up with you?" But other then that as long as I didn't follow thru with anything then he didn't seem like it was a big deal.
I have not closed the AM account yet. And what I was telling myself during that time was "It won't turn into anything" and then while talking with the om today I wasn't really saying anything about it to myself except "he lives to far away for anything to really happen without one of us getting on a plane" Part of me doesn't think my h would really care about it if I told him as long as "nothing happened", which causes a whole lot of other problems/doubts about him and us.
And one last answer about how I am going to work on my self-esteem/self-respect is I am planning on going to IC. I just need to make the call and schedule it, unfortunately it can take awhile with our insurance to get in and then I only see a counselor 1-2 times a month. (Reason I quit going during the PPD) But for now it's what I have to do until we can afford something better
A month later I start and EA then a couple months in I get busted. And on a long business trip alone I realize how fucked up I am and all the issues I have that need to be fixed if I ever want to be the person I thought I might be. I come clean to the W and start working; books, SI, IC yada yada.
First 3 or so months go by as well as I guess this shit can, then I start to get the "your not the same", "your different", "your not empathetic". So, after much talking, weeping and nashing of teeth I recognize with the wifes help that I had a massive trigger, but because TG is only 5 months in there usually isn't time, room, or reason to bring any of that up. She says there is but doesn't feel like it or maybe its my CA taking over. Which is possible, my entire life is feelings, SI, IC, Bravo and housewives. Writing this I feel extreamly out of balance, at least it sounds that way to me.
So, for those of you who may have been here before, any ideas?
I've been up front about it all. Taken full blame for my choices. She at times blames me. Then says its her fault.
We've been trying to R for almost a year. We even renewed our vows for our 15 year anniversary.
However, once we got back from our vacation at the end of june something changed.
She told me she's not sure anymore of R or me. She began talking to other men. And in the beginning of august was with another man. Twice.
Through all of this I've tried to tell her how I feel. I'd be willing to do whatever I have to do to make things work. And that I'd stand by her no matter what. I want this to work.
But I don't know now. This is her third betrayal of me.
All the while I'm told we wouldbt be in this position if it weren't for me. True. But she didn't have to be with someone else. The whole thing is hard enough. Now this.
She now is back to brining up my affair. Asking why I went back when she questioned me. Why I never ended it why I had to get caught to stop. Maybe I should be with her.
I feel like some of this is because we are approaching september which is when she discovered my affair. And the summer is when mine happened. It makes sense to my why she pushes me away. Why the clock is resetting so to speak. And I'm truly remorseful still for everything.
But there's the fact she's been with another man. Again.
[This message edited by tearsofblood1 at 8:00 AM, August 28th (Tuesday)]
It just wasn't right.
Any time I try to delve into it, I compare it to Mr.DixieD's affair. It pales in comparison. He describes it like I cut my hand and he chopped off his entire arm. That is what I fall back on. That tit for tat mentality that somehow makes me better than.
I stopped myself. Why couldn't you?
My H doesn't think I had an EA because he too compares the two situations. How can he judge after what he did? My IC doesn't believe I had an EA because I didn't feel in love, didn't project a future, didn't think I was doing anything wrong.
I was too interested in this person. After dday, I sure used him as a way to hurt my H. Saying things like I wish I would have "done something" with him when I had the chance (little more vulgar than that) -- you get the idea.
What I do know was that for a time, my H's feelings didn't mean a damn thing to me. When I think about that, because this was before his affair then I tie that in with -- if I hadn't done this then he wouldn't have cheated. I know that's bs but it still blocks me facing anything more and I can't tolerate the pain thinking there may be any truth to it.
How do you deal with your own stuff as a MH?
All the while I'm told we wouldbt be in this position if it weren't for me. True.
Not true. Her choices are hers and yours are yours. You don't have to accept hers because of yours.
What are you doing to get healthy? Regardless of where she is at you have to focus on you. If your trying to get healthy just for her and the M then it will never work IMO. Set some expectations with her such as no more A's. If the decision is she or you can't do that then its over or you accept that behavior.
Holy crap would I love that answer!! I have done that myself, comparing EA vs PA, in the end for me it is a distraction that keeps me from looking at my own issues.. What helps me is reminding myself that her decisions are hers and mine are mine.
Seems like there are sooo many locks, blocks, walls and issues with MH. Its hard to keep it all straight.
What helps me is reminding myself that her decisions are hers and mine are mine.
I think that is a big key to it, hardlessons. Personal ownership and not playing the comparison game.
On the same token, my wife and I have had some productive conversations where we were able to relate to each others mindsets as waywards, and have empathy toward each other, while at the same time admitting how flawed our thinking was during the time of our A's.
First context: My adultery was along time ago. It was with another woman (I have not been attracted to other women before or after this) and I crossed the line of friendship after having poor boundaries and not prioritising my M. enough.
There was one brief physical encounter. Prior to this I had some 'twinges' of physical attraction that I didnot recognise. I disclosed to my H. within a week.
I then turned my life inside out to establish good boundaries.
I have not ever since been tempted to cheat, nor have I put a friendship before, equal or even close to our M.
Since working through his A my H. began to go through a whole new level of 'feeling' about mine infidelity. Because he rewrote it in his mind and applied his own actions (lieing, underground behaviour, sneaking around, numberous physical encounters, flirting, texting, romancing etc)
to my A.
From this point of view 'comparing' our A's was really important. Clarifying for him through retrospective vision about the details of my affair was important for him to stop inaccurate mind movies.
Another thing that has been important to me DD (which I relate to you in your post) is the pride I feel that I put a stop to my behaviour. That I did not go underground, that I turned myself around and did the hard yards for 9 years. I actually am proud of the choices I have made since I disclosed to my H.
I am also proud that I was able to recognise adultery for what it was, a lie and an illusion that offered me and all I held dear heartbreak and dishonour.
I was proud of this before I found out he was unfaithful. And I still am. I am not giving that up - because I have earnt it.
It does not mean I am finished understanding why I did it - nor that I can now be careless.
H. did rugsweep. But I don't believe (and I have examined this) that I am responsible for his avoidance of reality. That he told himself 'all that mattered was that it was over and that I was doing the right thing' that was his choice. It may have been true. It might still be true - except that he had an affair and now understands the wayward thought processes I was engaging in too.
He tells me his three - four month betrayal of me - especially the one - two months the affair went underground for is worse in its effect and intent than what I did. And I believe him. As many on SI say - the lies and deception is what makes it so much worse. It is the insult and the injury.
I don't let myself off the hook for my actions at that time. But I do congratulate myself and celebrate every health choice I have made for 9 years. I also celebrate that I faced what I did and was honest with him. I only ever asked for the same in return.
I don't know if this helps ... and I guess it may challenge the 'don't compare' thinking in some ways. I am happy to be challenged on it.
I disclosed because I can't lie. I can lie to myself but I can't knowingly tell a lie and be ok with it. It eats me alive until I spill my guts. I couldn't live a double life. If I was going to have an affair, it would be out in the open.
My H rugswept his feelings about my attachment to this guy because he never really expressed his feelings and he didn't think I would care if he was opposed to it and in all honesty I wouldn't have been. I had a very 'you can't tell me what to do' sort of attitude. Why express feelings to someone who doesn't care about your feelings?
I didn't prioritize my M in many ways. I didn't want it to change me. I feared enmeshment and it felt like I was suffocating sometimes.
I know I've had poor boundaries. Since discovering this I've isolated myself more so than built actual healthy boundaries. Although I do recognize them more than I ever have.
As far as EA go, I didn't think I was in one. It doesn't fit the Sally Glass criteria of one either.
I become too interested in people. I feel something I can't even describe. It's The Rescuer/The Helper role. Beyond that, when the urge or interest or whatever it is finishes I move on to something else. I don't think the person is the love of my life. I don't overlook their flaws etc. I don't think being with them would be the answer to my prayers. I don't need to be in constant contact. It's not limerance in definition.
Possibly a form of infatuation, with limitations. Wikipedia has a section on Intellectual infatuations and they do not need to only involve people, but can extend to objects, activities, and ideas. That's been a problem, I will find an obsession of the moment and use that to divert attention from the M. I've been able to challenge this thinking now that I know it's there, in regards to people, but it's not as easy with other things.
As far as this one guy in particular, the EA in question, there was a lot of flirting, primarily on his part. I remember thinking, I'm glad I'm not married to you. I wouldn't date someone like you. I knew he had a thing for me and had for many years and I told him he was chasing a fantasy. I'm not this wonderful mate he thought I would be. I thought as long as I didn't feel THAT about him and he stayed in the friend category it was ok. But I can't say for sure that I didn't feel something at least briefly.
When he asked -- where is this going? I was jolted out of it. This isn't going anywhere, what are you talking about, I'm married. I told my husband the guy misunderstood my caring and interest for something else. I was freaked out by it. I could see why he could have and it scared me. Someone with healthy boundaries wouldn't be questioned about their friendship in the first place. We'd been friends for many years and didn't want to mess that up so that we couldn't be friends now, so we remained friends -- a toned down version.
After Mr.DD's dday I wasn't about to talk to this guy about problems in my marriage, he'd also been a BS so I wasn't going to commiserate with him or flirt back with him. I was behind my new boundaries barrier wall. However, after reading about NC, I was adamant that he and I were different from Mr.DD and his A. We were just friends. I didn't need to go NC with my friend because I had put boundaries in place. For a long time I didn't and wouldn't go NC, because I didn't do anything wrong -- in comparison. I didn't lie or hide things and I never thought I was in love with him.
I have a lot more work to do with that. I think that ties into poor boundaries too, among other things. I had a real problem knowing where I stopped and Mr.DD started. That we are not the same person with the same thought processes. I've had to face just how different we are.
I don't know if this helps ... and I guess it may challenge the 'don't compare' thinking in some ways. I am happy to be challenged on it.
Your post does help, Meg, and I think the context in which you and your H are comparing your A's is healthy.
My concern with some types of comparisons is they can be done in an unhealthy manner, such as conflict avoidance, justification, etc. Feelings such as, "You had your cake, therefore I am entitled to mine." or "At least I didn't do X and Y and Z, so what I did really doesn't even count at all.", are very flawed thinking, IMO, and that's kind of what I meant when I said 'comparison game'.
In your case, Meg, it sounds like you are using 'comparisons', not to do conflict avoidance or justification, but mostly to map out the facts as they actually are (versus how they are imagined), and to inventory what you have on your plate to deal with individually and as a couple. Sounds good to me.
ETA: Edited for grammar. Brain is fried after work.

If we can compare As then why cant I compare childhoods and mine was much worse so I get special dispensation right? I understand and am guilty of mapping out the facts of who did what and facts are useless unless put in context. The context of wayward thinking is that youre a Wayward, period no more no less.
I am white, am I more white because of my political beliefs or less white because I live in Arizona and a tan is easy to come by? No, I am still white. To continue that analogy I was white before and after the A. Not trying to bust balls or anything. Just think that comparison of any kind leads to less healthy thinking. In society we have laws like murder; 1st-3rd degree, manslaughter etc. at the end of the day someone is dead and their partner, wife or husband is crushed, regardless of the legal charge put on the guilty the outcome is exactly the same for those who have lost their loved one..
The only thing we own are our own actions and thoughts, allowing comparison allows you to justify or feel better or have upper hand in a relationship or if you think you have done worse it allows you to deny your feelings and triggers because, well you just dont deserve it. Either way ends up fucked up. Tried them both..
When looking from the aspect of healing, there are different types of affairs with varying levels of betrayal that entail different consequences that each have their own path of healing (LTA, OC, STD, SA, EA, PA, Double Betrayal, the list goes on). I think it is important to get everything out on the plate, so it can be evaluated, accepted, and healing can begin for the individual WS/BS's and ultimately the marriage, if that can be done. That's just my take on it, though.
ETA: I don't know, maybe a better term for what I am referring to would be 'inventorying' instead of 'comparing'?
[This message edited by LosferWords at 3:52 PM, August 31st (Friday)]
I think MH situations are really complex - and I think there is a lot of variation to the perceived linkage in the adultery of each partner.
The length of time between / the context / the degree of patterned and repititve behaviour.
The point of 'comparing' or taking an 'inventory' of my adultery relative to my husbands was very important to us.
I betrayed my husband 9 years ago. I disclosed to him straight away and accepted his forgiveness when he offered it. I made a committment to him and I that I would never invite this back into our lives.
After my discovery of his affair, he took it underground, then on my discovery of that, he drip fed the truth to me for over a month.
The triage of the damage after his affair was all consuming. When we bobbed up from this a great tsunami of pain was waiting for him.
Because I put to him that I was concerned he had not processed my betrayal of him. He sat with that for a few weeks and then his mind movies started.
He saw my betrayal through the prism of his own affair and actions.
It was very important to reality check all of this because he was rewriting history and hurting himself again.
But not only that - he was (maybe inadvertantly - maybe deliberatly) minimising my access to working through my pain.
Because so much of my recovery is about finding understanding and forgiveness for all the ugliness that occured after the affair went underground.
I felt during this stage that he was moving through the pain that he was claiming my story in a way.
I didn't speak this to him. I reassured him that his pain was real and valid and continually gave him the facts regarding my infidelity.
The feeling that he was claiming my story shifted when he stopped rewriting that history through the prism of his affair.
Gosh I don't know if this makes sense.
when I speak of feeling proud .. I am validating the healthy and authentic choices I have made since facing my infidelity. All the changes great and small I have made to protect my marriage. Nine years of vigilance and work. And yes I OWN my ugly actions. My wayward thinking. I also OWN the healthy, life-giving and genuine thinking and actions I have taken for nearly a decade.
allowing comparison allows you to justify or feel better or have upper hand in a relationship
Not the upper hand in my relationship. I believe I have earnt my stripes in my own battle. It is something within me. Looking at WHO I was during those weeks(and the behaviour and thinking that enabled me becoming that)and looking at WHO I have been for nine years since.
If this was my friend or sister or someone here on SI I would be the one applauding. So I offer myself that same gift and encouragement.
or if you think you have done worse it allows you to deny your feelings and triggers because, well you just dont deserve it.
this concerns me for my H. - because a part of his thinking before his physical affair was that I am a better person than him. I do NOT agree with him at all on this. My concern is that his view that he is worse than me could harm his self concept.
I am struggling to help him with that because I am struggling to forgive him for all the things he did after I first discovered and confronted him(without proof).
I am struggling to consolidate the emotional vampire that used my pain to feed his own ego for two months. Who watched me in dispair and felt satisfied that two women could 'want' him. Who allowed my pain to add spice to the clandestine and illicit nature of his 'romance' with another party. With the man I married and who is here with me today.
and yep maybe... that is where I trigger in an unhealthy comparison. Because I can not relate to that complete absence of empathy for weeks and weeks. The deliberate cruelty for months. There is this thing in me that thinks if i could relate - I could understand - I could hold 'why' in my hands.
This cycling is not about letting me off the hook. It is about trying to find my way to forgiveness.
Sorry this post has been so long. thank Losfer & HardLessons for both of your posts. So much food for thought. so now ... some more thinking.
(ETA- because i misread you had posted - I am sorry!)

I spent some time with Mr NEM, there were both ups and downs, but we are trying to make progress. I am trying to kick codependent habits but sometimes they sure do die hard.
The theme of the past couple weeks that I've been experiencing is "nothing is ever good enough." It doesn't matter what I do or how hard I try, he still pokes holes in me and deflates me. Always wants more. It's exhausting and it's hard to say no because I am a wayward too.
We had an outdoor activity and then had some folks over yesterday for dinner, so I cooked while he did chores outside. I had to cook fast so we could eat when everyone was ready, and Mr NEM had the gall to say, "thank you for dinner, but why didn't you cool ___ down in the fridge before serving? It tastes kind of gross at this temperature". Really? Backhanded compliments, my favorite? And when I spilled a drink everywhere and didn't immediately go get a towel to clean it up, he yelled at me in front of our guests...
Him:aren't you going to clean that up?!?!
Me: in a minute after I finish eating
Him:(( storms off to get a towel)) you're going to ruin the floor!!
IMO, the yelling and bitching about food temp just show that after what he deemed to be the "perfect" day together and that he was so content and happy together, he still sees the need to cut me down.
Most days I can let it roll off my back like water on a duck, but this hurt. And I did the socially appropriate thing by not having a confrontation in front of guests, and we agreed to postpone the conversation til later.
I was too tired by the time everyone left so we just went to sleep. Why throw more energy into a black hole if it's going to suck more out of me and end up not good enough anyway.
I was doing so good and being so strong last week. Times like this just make me think he is a self centered asshole and "we" are only doing great when he is happy. I'm tired of being not good enough in so many aspects. I don't need an ego kibble. At this point I just new neutral. He doesn't have to tell me how splendiferous dinner was when it isn't, or that he thinks it's great when I spill shit, but not publicly dissing me would be nice.
Yes, I am going to have this conversation with him shortly.
((MH hugs))
argghh no you should not need to live with that type of whiteanting.
and yes to this ...
Yes, I am going to have this conversation with him shortly.
The thing is I don't think public put downs are ok. they are undermining (in the least) and abusive at the most.
I guess the definition of this would be with the person who is experiencing it. That is - how it leaves you feeling.
It is not ok that although we might be hurt that we feel justified in whiteanting our partner's self worth, and the attempt to white ant other's perception of them.
If you and MrNEM are working through recovery - it is very important both of you have the goal of 'first - do no harm' or as SIers say - 'No New Hurts'.
Look it is understandable that at times we will not achieve this, that we will slip and take a swing at our partner. It is not ok that this is consistent. It is not ok that this public.
You can, should and need to expect more - because you deserve it.
I agree that neutral is ok. But undermining is NOT.
This type of behaviour and harm may seem like a small misdeamour beside the cruelty of infidelity.
But overtime this type of behaviour wounds. it creates a burden in the relationship that wears it down. And it leave marks and scars on the person who the acts are inflicted against.
It certainly will not aid healing.
That is why it feels so dreadful to be on the receiving end of it when in recovery, because we are already so vulerable.
You are right to talk to him. And you are right to feel it is harmful, to you, your H and you M.
((NEM)) thinking of you.
Anybody else's fellow mad-hatter always refer to themselves as 'the betrayed one'? My H is always talking about our situations and referring to himself as 'you, us betrayed's' or when referring to me in the 'for waywards' term. And it's starting to piss me off that he keeps making me feel like I am either entirely to blame or the only 'bad-guy' in this marriage. Really sick of the double standard!!!
so we wrap it up with this couple - and I'm giving him the evil eye and we talk business and I get in a few jabs about lying by omission...
getting ready for bed he says he knows I'm mad and I ask why he didn't tell me who it was on Friday - we sat 2 rows back from them. He said he wasn't sure it was her - she was dressed provoacatively and not business like, like she usually is, and he didn't want to ruin our night..
also, he said he didn't appreciated the lying by omission thing - he said he really didn't know if it was her...
we wrapped it up pretty fast with me saying I hate his job and him saying maybe I'd be better off without him because he can see so much pain in my eyes.
I said this forgiveness thing for your affairs isn't gonna be a problem. I understand how you got there and the slippery slope, etc, etc. It's the things that are currently going on that are. I keep getting hurt. And I burst into tears because I had planned and worked hard for his party and this is how it ended... He rubbed my back until I went to sleep..
we continue to be hard on each other. I continue to punish him. I don't know why.... I wish I could react in ways other than getting mad, giving him an evil eye, getting jabs in... I don't want to be that person.

Grief does not change you, Hazel. It reveals you.
It sounds like it might be time for a new dance.
I have a suggestions if you want, I don't know if it will be helpful but here goes:
Maybe try to make it a goal for a full week to encourage and focus on him being as honest as possible. That means, asking him what he's thinking, how his day was, if he saw this person or that person, etc. and then just listening to him without reacting just yet. Or if he says something upsetting, saying in the most simple terms, "I feel really angry that xyz." But then keep asking him questions. It sounds like he really needs to be more forthcoming with details about his life.
If he can do that, maybe he can start acknowledging your feelings more. As you're encouraging him to volunteer information, you can tell him how you need his support when you feel xyz. "I feel really hurt right now, and I need to know you care about that. Can you hug me?"
I know it's easier said than done. Sometimes it is so frustrating, you want to rip someone's head off and pelt them with it until they stop being dense. Sometimes it helps to focus on one change at a time and see if it gets better, even in a week. It sounds like if he starts telling you about his day and things that happen and encounters with people who aren't friends of your marriage, then maybe you won't feel like you're having to pry it out of him. That might take away some of the hurt, maybe? (((rachelc)))
Just checking in...
I've been allowing myself the serenity to detach from "A-land" for the past 2 weeks or so. My sanity had been slipping since April 1st & my children desperately need a healthy parent, and I deserve a peaceful life, I realize. WH/BH was not on board with delivering those things on his part, so I found detaching to be only thing that was going to help me survive. And I must say, I feel so much better.
I've surrounded myself with friends & family that love me & back it up with action. I've lived too long with a resentful person whom *I* allowed to make me feel bad about wanting/needing ANYTHING; whether it be emotional support, affection, or physical support when I've been ill.
Being away from all of this has made me feel like a worthwhile & wonderful person. But there are so many triggers due to longevity, depth, and multitude of WH/BH's betrayals. One (actual a bundle) that cuts like a knife through my heart is that he was cheating on me before & during my pregnancy, and continued more sickeningly when my DS was a newborn.
This weekend I had plans with different friends while WH/BH had the kids, but because I am recovering from critical anemia & my period has been making me feel really ill, I ended up resting at home. I ended up getting really emotional because my former assistant just had a baby & had sent me pictures. Then trigger. I just got incredibly devastated thinking about my little one & how things seemed soooo not quite right during that time with WH/BH. My sweet baby DID NOT deserve this bullshit that WH/BH was up to with that *bleeping bleep*. My BABY deserved the attention. That was a really, really fucked up thing for WH/BH to do. I wonder if he could for just one fucking time, put himself in that child's shoes! Oh, but here's the kicker, he WAS that child at one time! With an absent daddy. How could he do that to his own baby????!!!!
I'm sorry, I am just outraged at his selfishness, his utter destruction of others' lives.
Thanks for being here to let me vent.

Atlanta >Beauty > Adore Hair Studio & Shoppe Inman Park

Tue-Thu 11am-8 pm
Fri. 10 am-6 pm
Sat. 10 am-5 pm
Neighborhoods: Eastside, Eastside, Poncey Highlands
Jenn Hipp has been doing my hair for almost 14 years now. Can't imagine going to anyone else. She knows what my hair will and won't do and always has great ideas to make me look awesome. Cut and color are fabulous. And it's always fun sitting in her chair. She's awesome!
Jenn Hipp is the absolute best! She has been my hair stylist for 12 years! Best cut and color I've ever had! I have lived in other states and no matter where I am, I always go back to Atlanta to have her do my hair. Sure, there are other stylists out there to use, but why would I ever do that when I have such an awesome gal to make my hair sparkle?!
Love adore and love Allie! She always spends time on my hair and gives me a haircut that will look great from the start and grow in well.
I highly recommend!
Robbin Woody is now at Grow Salon in Decatur!! I followed Robbin from Adore to Grow. She is amazingly talented and so nice! She gives me the best bright blonde hair with tons of dimension. I'm always getting compliments on it! Best blondes in Atlanta!!
Jill Gregory @ Adore rocks! I've been using her for years and she is simply the best. Friendly, talented and fun!!!
Malaika Lewis-Picard is wonderful! It was my first time at Adore and I am very picky about my hair color. I like my blonde highlights to be very natural and soft because I don't color my hair often. Malaika give me the most perfect sun kissed highlights. It was exactly what I wanted. I also received a great haircut. I am quite low maintenance with styling my hair and I stressed that I wanted an easy haircut. Malaika gave me a very versatile cut that looks great when i let it dry naturally. I felt like I left the salon getting exactly what I asked for for the first time. I will definitely be going back!
I had a really good experience with Malaika. I wasn't happy with my hair and how it was being cut by my old stylist. She listened to what I wanted and took her time to get me the hair cut exactly like I described. It took an hour and finally after a lot of patience on her part my hair looked fabulous. She gave me a cute hair cut with bangs exactly like I wanted. My hair is curly, but I wear it straight a lot. Before it was looking like a wavy mess when I air dried my hair, so I continually had to straighten it. Now my hair looks like the bouncy curies I used to have, but it still looks great when I blow it straight. I am very happy with the cut and Malaika. I will 100% go back.
Best Salon in Atlanta! – I've been going to Jen Hipp for a few years now and she is awesome! She always listens to what I want to do with the length, color, etc., and more importantly really executes perfectly. When I get bored with it, I just let her do whatever she wants and it always looks great! I will never go to another stylist.
The salon itself is always clean, the staff is very friendly and welcoming. I recommend it to everyone.
Rockin' my hair every time! – I have been going to this salon since they first opened. Everyone there is super nice and the atmosphere is upbeat and lively.
Jill Gregory is my stylist and she's awesome. She's taken me from superlong to bob, from blonde to black, and everywhere in between! Also, I saw an edgy pixie cut that she recently did on one of her coworkers that looks HOT! Jill also does awesome man haircuts too and rocks my husband's hair like nobody's business!
Lauren is great... worth a trip! – Lauren's been my stylist for about a year now, and even though I no longer live in Atlanta, she does such a consistently good job that I refuse to change stylists. Every time I pass through Atlanta I have to make a point to stop in and see Lauren. She's even managed to salvage some less than flattering cuts I've gotten while out of town. She is a great stylist and worth the trip!

Ricky Gervais may have enjoyed being the "most feared man in Hollywood" when he notoriously offended many as a the host of the Golden Globes, but he insists that his new sitcom Derek, set in a nursing home, is "sweeter" than his usual fare.
Derek, an original series to premiere on Netflix sometime this year, won't target the elderly with Gervais' sardonic wit. The show's humor doesn't lie in mocking them, but rather in taking jabs at the callous outside world and its marginalization of the elderly. It's certainly not an obvious topic for humor, but Gervais hopes that viewers will give the show a chance.
"I think there's risk of people not watching it because of assumptions that it was cruel," he said at Netflix's winter TV previews on Wednesday. "There's risk that they don't get it. Or that they get it and don't like it. ... I haven't felt this excited and proud of a project since The Office. That's the truth of it."
Ricky Gervais will release the pilot episode of his new web series, Learn English with Ricky Gervais, later this month for free on iTunes, according to a teaser video released for the project.
The tongue-in-cheek series will feature Gervais and his frequent collaborator Karl Pilkington examining the nuances of the English language. "This is the worst English lesson ever," Gervais says in the video clip, barely able to keep a straight face.

Hinkley Point C: An opportunity to power the future
EDF Energy has published plans to build two new reactors at Hinkley Point in Somerset, subject to the right investment framework.
The reactors would be built next to the existing Hinkley Point A and B stations and would produce enough energy for around five million homes.
Agreement reached on commercial terms for the planned Hinkley Point C nuclear power station
Planning consent granted
On 19th March 2013 the Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change granted a development consent order to EDF Energy to build and operate Hinkley Point C and associated development. The decision follows the submission of EDF Energy's application to the Infrastructure Planning Commission (now the Planning Inspectorate) on 31 October 2011.
Read the Planning Inspectorate's recommendation and EDF Energy's press statement. Click here for more information about Hinkley Point C's planning and other permissions and consents.
Creating more than just a power plant
With a strong local focus, the Hinkley Point C project will create a new generation of skilled engineers, thousands of job opportunities as well as contractual opportunities for local firms. It aims to give a real boost to the Somerset and South-West regional economy.
Read our brochure and watch our short film to find out more about Hinkley Point C and the benefits it will bring to the UK. Read more about job opportunities here.

The Pikkolo has an adjustable base which allows both small babies to be legs out and also any baby to face forward while still sitting ergonomically.

Ken McGowan will be the owner and manager of the new Porthole restaurant and pub, which is currently undergoing renovation with hopes of opening in the spring.
By Randy Billings
Staff Writer
PORTLAND – A well-known waterfront restaurant that city officials shut down last fall because of health code violations including a rat infestation is expected to reopen this spring under new management.
Ken McGowan, whose family owns Custom House Wharf, said he will own and manage the Porthole Restaurant and Pub.
"It will be run to every inch of the health code," McGowan said Tuesday. "I'm not skimping on anything."
The Porthole and the adjacent Comedy Connection, a popular nightclub, closed in September after a city health inspector discovered the rat infestation, among other code violations. When the Porthole closed for renovations this winter, it was unclear whether it would reopen under the same ownership.
McGowan said he took over the space after Oliver Keithly, who owned the Porthole, the Comedy Connection and the adjacent Harbour's Edge banquet hall, decided the repairs would be too expensive.
Harding Lee Smith, the chef who owns the Grill Room, the Corner Room and the Front Room in Portland, plans to open a restaurant in the space where the banquet hall operated.
The Porthole needed extensive renovations, including a new floor. The old wooden floor was in such poor condition that rats could eat through it to get access to the kitchen, McGowan said, but now two layers of wood and three inches of concrete cover the floor.
"If we have rats that can fight through that, then they're not rats -- they're Superman," said McGowan.
He said the kitchen has been remodeled and Ecolab will do ongoing pest control.
McGowan said he plans to keep the old decor of the Porthole and turn the Comedy Connection space into a pub that will be open year-round. The Porthole will be open for six months a year, he said.
"That room was built for a pub," McGowan said of the former comedy club. "There will be a stage for entertainment -- DJs, bands and maybe even comedy."
City Councilor Nicholas Mavodones said he was pleased to hear about efforts to renovate and reopen the waterfront restaurant, which was featured on the Food Network's "Diners, Drive-ins and Dives" show in 2010.
When Mavodones ran for mayor in 2011, he held his election night party at the Porthole.
"I wish him good luck," Mavodones said of McGowan. "The Porthole is a spot on the waterfront that people like to visit."
Licensing and an inspection are needed before the restaurant can open.
McGowan said he is confident that he will be able to reclaim the Porthole's good name, which was tarnished by the shutdown last year.
"I think we're going to be able to clear that up real quick," he said. "There won't be any question this will be the 21st century Porthole."

Campus Dining:
I like the convenience more than the quality or the price. If you do the math, depending on the plan you choose, you are essentially paying approximately 7-11 dollars per meal. Even for New York prices, there are cheaper places to get food of similar quality.
Campus Dining:
The food is pretty averge
Campus Dining:
There are a lot of different options, but they are kind of all over the place so you end up not even trying everything because it's not worth it.
Campus Dining:
I don't eat on campus
Campus Dining:
Food exceeds what you'd expect from cafeteria dining quality.

Written by Victoria Adesoba
NYU was recently rated one of the best universities in the country for vegans and vegetarians. While it is true that there are many options for carnivores, herbivores, and everyone in between, dining hall food can still get old fast. There are eight dining halls on campus, which make for some nice variety, but many students still tire of dining hall food before the end of their freshman year. All dining halls offer a to-go option, and you can pay with your meal plan, NYU Campus Cash, real cash, or credit card. Six of the dining halls are all-you-can-eat—which can be either a blessing or a curse. Two dining halls right on campus, Upstein and Kimmel, offer "meal exchanges," which translate to an entrée, side, and drink for a swipe.
All upperclassmen can opt to have or not have a meal plan, since all upperclassman dorms are equipped with kitchens. Freshmen who live in traditional halls are required to have a meal plan. For those living at Third North, the meal plan is optional, as each suite has a kitchen. Most freshmen actually enjoy having a meal plan since it eliminates the stress of having to worry about the source of your next meal. More importantly, the dining halls are great places to make friends and socialize. The dining hall staff is always great, and the nicer you are to them, the bigger slice of steak you get. Overall, NYU does a great job of providing students with a variety of healthy options, and if you get bored with the cafeteria, you have hundreds of restaurants at your disposal, even within campus grounds.

About This School
In 2010, Faith Lutheran School had 17 students for every full-time equivalent teacher. The Washington average is 19 students per full-time equivalent teacher.

Faith Lutheran School Reviews
We love this school, it's small environment and personal one on one with students makes them stand above ours. They run the school with a feel of middle school with the students having more then one teacher to teach them the different subjects. They not only teach your kids faith but have the ability to keep the classrooms small so no child is unnoticed. PLUS the church pays half of the tuition of EVERY kid, the monthly cost is a great rate that is manageable for your budget.


text: This research is part of the U.S. Bureau of the Census' continuing effort to design decennial short forms that are respondent friendly, machine imagable, and cost efficient. In 1995, Two Twelve Associates, a graphic design firm, was commissioned to independently develop two newly designed forms. These forms, along with the latest in- house form, were subjected to both an in-depth pretest using cognitive interviewing methods and a national mailout/mailback test, designated the 1996 National Content Survey (NCS). Based on the results of the cognitive interviews, and whatever NCS results that were available at the time, and technical and cost considerations, Two Twelve was again commissioned to develop two forms. This time, however, the forms were developed in a collaborative effort with the Census Bureau (rather than independently, as above). One of the greatest achievements with the second set of forms was the success with which respondents were able to navigate through them in cognitive interviews. This paper will describe the changes that went into making the second set of forms a navigational success.

Suns' Telfair excited about homecoming
Sebastian Telfair will be afforded that opportunity Friday when the Suns visit the Brooklyn Nets for the first time since the Nets' move from New Jersey.
"It's definitely special. I can't downplay it at all," he said. "I'm excited about it. It's my hometown."
Telfair is a veteran of nine NBA seasons so he has played several times in New York, where the Knicks call Madison Square Garden home.
"Of course playing in the Garden is one thing," he said, "but actually playing in the borough that I'm from which is Brooklyn, it's going to be special to me and a lot of people that watched me come up coming from Lincoln High School in Brooklyn (to) playing in the pros.
"It's going to be a pretty cool game."
What's not going to be cool is finding enough tickets to satisfy all his friends and family.
"I kept my requests down for the Garden game so I know I was going to have to get a couple of tickets for this game," Telfair said.
"I'm going to take this experience and enjoy it as much as possible."

Singapore's Eddie Niguel drops the Midnight Shift Podcast #003. Winner of the Get Physical remix competition of Patrice Baumel's 'Roar' in 2008, Eddie (also known under his production moniker Edel) has since been working his way slowly but surely to the forefront of where we are at today. Check his intense mix combusting into sheer techno flames to hear what we're talking about.
So, how did your relationship with music begin?
My relationship with music began at a very young age and it all started out with my dad. He was a music and hi-fi enthusiast and he would always put on these huge headphones on me while he played some of his favourite records. I'm fortunate that I have a dad that loves and is open to music in general. I picked up that trait from him and have since developed an open relationship with music. It doesn't really matter what the genre or style is or if it's old or new music. If it's good music then it's good music and I will embrace it. I have since took over what's left of his 70's & 80's collection, mainly disco, funk and 70's rock so it's all good.
Where did you receive your music education, formal or informal?
Well, I was in the school youth orchestra for 6 years playing in the brass and wood ensemble. Funnily enough I can't read or write scores now so I just play by ear if I have to. As for the technical side of things, I did spend some time in a local studio here and abroad watching and learning from the pros but I wouldn't consider that a formal education.
You're known as a bit of a low profile personality…
I'm reserved by nature and I don't have the ambition to rule or conquer the world with my music. To me, my music is personal. I genuinely enjoy the whole music-making process and if others take a liking to what I do, I take that as a reward for the effort I put in. My output however is slow compared to everyone else out there so it's only natural that I am somewhat known to be a bit low profile and I don't have a problem with that at all. On the contrary, I actually enjoy being under the radar as it gives me the space and time to develop and establish myself as a producer. Having said that, I do have an official website that I try to update regularly and I'm on social music networks like myspace or soundcloud.

You are also a resident DJ at a gay club Taboo in Singapore. How many years have you been there and your thoughts about it?
I have been at Taboo for about 6 years now. I have a great team there so the working environment is pleasant and the crowd is always out to have a good night of fun. Music wise, it's very different to what I would normally play out at any of my own gigs but as chief resident I am given the responsibility to keep the crowd entertained and ensure that the club remains in business. Hence for this reason, I choose to put the club's interest ahead of mine and keep it professional so that at the end of the day everybody walks away a winner.
Could you tell us about the scene in Singapore and its current state?
I think the music scene in Singapore is not too bad, it could have been worse. The electronic dance or clubbing scene however I think is doing pretty good. I've noticed that there are more bars and cafes playing electronic music now than there ever was. There's also more independent promoters and DJs throwing their own parties and starting up their own record labels. Performing art venues like the Esplanade are also now opening up to electronic music and are hosting acts like Kraftwerk which is great. I hope to see the local scene grow and I'd love to see more smaller clubs and homegrown festivals here in the future. All in all I'd say the current state is pretty good, exciting times and there is definitely room for growth...
Is there anyone else whom you think people should check out or pay attention to?
I think the locals needs all the attention they can get so support all your local acts and check them all out. If you dig what they do, spread the word out to your friends, go to their gigs and buy their music.
Could you tell us about your remix for Patrice Bäumel's 'Roar'?
The remix was done in Logic Pro with logic's built in plugs and soft synths except for the vocal samples. It did fairly well when Get Physical released it digitally on Juno downloads. It also introduced me to a new audience as well, thanks to the Label's reputation and Patrice's stamp of approval on the remix.

"Haunting and Dark, Will Cause Considerable Damage On The Dance Floor!"
- Patrice Baumel (Get Physical, Trapez, Studio iK7)
What is your production method?
I try to be original, keep an open mind and tend to keep things simple most time. I always start with a blank canvas but that's the only thing that is fixed in my routine. Everything else is dependent on my mood, sometimes I will start by playing in some chords, other times I'll start by sequencing a drum pattern and take it from there.
What is your favourite piece of gear?
I own only a few right now so there are no favourites at the moment as I love them all equally. Logic still plays a key role and is still my main DAW for recording and mixing.
Is there a certain sound you associate yourself with?
Not that I am consciously aware of.
Who are some of your inspirations?
If I have to list down names, it would probably be a very long list. I'd say everyday life experience and traveling to other cities is probably the fuel that inspires me creatively.
Who is your top 10 right now?
Instead of listing down a top 10, I decided to list down 10 people who's work I have always taken an interest in. They are all extremely talented and versatile producers in my opinion and their music always find it's way into my 'god dam this is hot folder'. Not in any particular order:
Ripperton, Deetron, Conforce, Apparat, Patrice Baumel, Chymera, Omar S, Levon Vincent, Redshape and Matt Edwards.
And your top 10 of all time?
Only 10? This is really gonna be a tough one. I'm sure I'm going to miss out a dozen more greats but I'll give it a shot!

Could you tell us a bit about your podcast?
I had intended to start off the mix slightly deeper but Midnight Shift had requested that I include my track for them 'Absolute' in the mix which kind of altered the direction I originally had in mind. Regardless, I tried to showcase a mix that would hopefully keep the Midnight Shift listeners entertained and also get a glimpse of what to expect when I play out at gigs. Granted, it's not the most accurate representation of everything I play as my sets tend to vary depending on the crowd, room and time-slot I'm performing. Nevertheless, I hope you listeners are going to enjoy the mix that I have put together cause it's been a long time since I actually did a mixtape.

What's next for you in 2012?
I just recently signed some new materials to Danny Howells label, Dig Deeper records from the UK so that's exciting. I've received some really nice feedback on those so I'm really looking forward to it's official release next year. Also, I've been working on a couple of remixes under my Edel moniker for a 3-piece synth pop band out of the UK as well called Evokateur. They have been bubbling under, performing around venues in London and their gigs have received great reviews so keep a look out for them and my remixes too.

Apart from that, I'm just gonna continue working on new materials, try to get more stuff out there and hopefully land some memorable gigs along the way! Last but not least, a big 'Thank You' to Midnight Shift for this interview, releasing my music and most importantly for the great parties. Wish you guys all the best for 2012!
