Colombian salsa star Joe Arroyo dies

BOGOTA (Reuters) - Colombian singer and composer Joe Arroyo, one of the leading lights of the Andean nation's music scene since the 1970s, died on Tuesday from multiple organ failure, a medical clinic said.
The death of the 55-year-old salsa singer, who had long struggled with a drug problem and diabetes, prompted mourning in the music-loving country and beyond.
"I join the family of Joe Arroyo and the Colombian people for the loss of a great artist. He left us a great legacy, his voice is still present," tweeted Willie Colon, the New York salsa singer and trombonist.
"It is a sad day for music. ... Thanks for all the happiness that you leave us. Viva Joe Arroyo!" Colombian singer Juanes said through his micro-blogging account.
Arroyo died at a clinic in the coastal city of Barranquilla where he had been admitted about a month ago after coming down with pneumonia.
He was best known outside Colombia for his song "Rebellion." It tells the story of an enslaved couple living in the Caribbean city of Cartagena in the 17th century.
The song became an unofficial battle song for the oppressed, analyzed by music theorists and sociologists.
Arroyo, who was known as "El Joe" but whose real name was Alvaro Jose Arroyo, was born in a poor neighborhood of Cartagena, Colombia's most popular tourist destination.
Beginning his career singing in local brothels from an early age, Arroyo moved on to perform with famous Colombian bands, including Fruko y sus Tesos and The Latin Brothers.
In 1981, he formed his own band, La Verdad (The Truth), with which he became the most influential voice in tropical Colombian music in the 20th century, biographer Mauricio Silva wrote in local media.
Arroyo cultivated a wide following across social and cultural backgrounds. Silva said Arroyo's voice was heard on 47 albums, and he composed 100 songs, 40 of which topped local and international charts.
"I'm sad about Joe Arroyo's death," Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos said. "A great loss for music and for Colombia."

Observation Status Costly for Hospitals
In a related invited commentary, Robert Wachter, MD, likened the assignment of patients to observation status to a passage from Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland, because Medicare's original observation policy has "morphed into madness."
"But I don't want to go among mad people," Alice remarked.
"Oh, you can't help that," said the Cat:
We're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad."
"How do you know I'm mad?" said Alice.
"You must be," said the Cat,
"Or you wouldn't have come here."
"If one was charged with coming up with a policy whose purpose was to confuse and enrage physicians and nearly everyone else, one could hardly have done better than observation status," he wrote.
With Medicare's proposed rule "improves on the status quo and should provide much needed clarity.""However," he wrote, "CMS could further improve the situation by requiring hospitals to inform patients of their status—observation or inpatient—as soon as it is determined, given the potential financial impact."
The agency also should be more flexible in allowing hospitals to retroactively change patients' status when more information becomes available, rather than taking the physician's initial orders to determine to what status the patient should be assigned.

AHA: Observation Status Fears on the Rise

Comments are moderated. Please be patient.
A Concerned Compliance Professional (7/12/2013 at 3:20 PM)
Dear Ms. Clark, I am certainly thankful that someone is paying attention to this crisis in America's hospitals and the inequality it has [INVALID]d with Medicare Fee Schedules and reimbursement patterns. There is an aspect of observation status that is often overlooked. The idea that a patient in observation should cost less, is a CMS derived fantasy. To a nurse caring for a patient in observation status, there is no difference in the care, treatment, resources or costs to the hospital provider. The patient is admitted to the same bed regardless of their admission status of inpatient or observation. Most bedside nurses and care providers know that the patients status is observation but they don't know what that means. To an organization, as stated above, the patient is still "admitted" though it may be "observation", the patient still receives care from any and all providers that are necessary to improve the patient's condition; including expensive diagnostic radiology procedures, medications, respiratory therapy procedures, physical or occupational therapy etc. The observation status patient receives the same compassionate care and respect of any other patient. The rubber meets the road as you mentioned when it comes to CMS reimbursement. But what was not mentioned is that while the patient is admitted to "inpatient observation" hospital providers must also spend thousands of dollars to hire and train staffs to "carve-out" the number of minutes or hours that the patient may be away from his or her bed to receive the expensive tests and procedures mentioned above. Not to mention that hospitals are not permitted to count inpatient observation patients in the daily census. This [INVALID]s another "ding" when the cost reports, average daily census, case mix index and other financial data is reported. In addition, CMS has been trying to "fix" this "short-stay" debacle for a number (many) of years. I remember in the 90's as an ER nurse, transcribing telephone orders from a physician. The physicians were frustrated then because they continued to be confused with the rule's revisions. CMS's many changes to the rule has [INVALID]d physician admitting orders to be defied because the physician did not write the order "precisely". Meaning, the rule changed and the "new" admission order had to change. Observation has been called such things as admit for 24 hours, 24 hour admission (even though the patient may stay up to two days), observation and admit to observation. CMS obviously recognized that observation status, may not actually mean twenty-four hours or less. It is noted in your report that patients may actually stay for two or more days. I propose to aks every Medicare beneficiary or their loved ones; caught in the "observation status"-hospital stay, if their care was any different than a previous "real" inpatient admission. How do you tell a 90 year-old widowed patient that their overnight hospital stay for uncontrolled high blood pressure did not qualify him or her and therefore they are now responsible for 20% of the charges and 100% of the self-administered drugs. As you can see, Ms. Clark, the issue of observation reaches much farther and into every crevice of our infrastructure. Thank you very kindly for reporting on this subject.
Tyco Brahe (7/12/2013 at 11:54 AM)
Observer status is a way for hospitals to skirt the rules on readmissions so their numbers looks better than they really are and the hospitals don't incur penalties. Patients get angry because they have to pay a large part of the bill (using Medicare Part B) instead of Medicare Part A.
Mary P. Malone (7/12/2013 at 11:21 AM)
I am wondering if placing recently discharged patients in observation status helps keep "readmission rates" lower?

Born into the well-known 'Gibbs toothpaste' family, Armstrong Gibbs (he hated the Cecil with which his name is often prefixed)—born 1889, died 1960—is a member of that wide category of English composers who, without pretensions to 'significance' or greatness, left much attractive and worthwhile music without which we would be much the poorer. Moderately prolific, his 'op' numbers extend to over a hundred. Much of his music, therefore, still awaits investigation and reassessment. He wrote over 150 songs, many of them to words by his friend Walter de la Mare, of which there are a dozen in this collection of 36, including the much-loved 'Silver' and 'Five Eyes'. The programme is shared between soprano Geraldine McGreevy and baritone Stephen Varcoe whose love for these songs is apparent in their affectionate performances with Roger Vignoles. |

Cecil Armstrong Gibbs was born on 10 August, 1889, in Great Baddow, a village on the outskirts of Chelmsford, Essex. His father was head of an old-established firm of toothpaste manufacturers. Gibbs Dentifrice (a disk of hard paste, pink in colour, which produced a slightly abrasive foam when rubbed with a wet toothbrush) was one of the most popular brands of the day and provided the family with a considerable fortune. It was therefore expected that, despite early evidence of a talent for music (he wrote his first song when he was five), the young Gibbs would join the family firm. Accordingly, he took the educational route most likely to equip him for such a life. Preparatory School, at Hove in Sussex (1889), led to a scholarship to Winchester College (1902) and then to three years at Trinity College, Cambridge (1908-1911), where he read for a degree in History. Throughout this time, however, music asserted its claims to such an extent that his family dropped their opposition and he was allowed to remain at Cambridge for a further two years to study for a Bachelor of Music degree under the composer Charles Wood (1866-1926) and the musicologist Edward J Dent (1876-1957).
On completing his studies, Gibbs embarked on a teaching career. In due course (1915) he joined the staff of his old prep school where, in June 1919, he composed the music for a play which he had asked the poet Walter de la Mare to write in honour of the headmasters retirement. The quality of his contribution to Crossings, as the play was called, was such that the conductor of the occasion, the young Adrian Boult, insisted that he should now take composition seriously. Although he had married in 1918, family support again came to his aid and enabled him to enrol at the Royal College of Music for a years study under Ralph Vaughan Williams. Commissions to write incidental music for a London production of Maeterlincks play The Betrothal in 1920, and the Cambridge University production of the Oresteia of Aeschylus in 1921, together with the publication of a comic opera, The Blue Peter (1923), by the Carnegie Collection of British Music, confirmed his reputation as a gifted composer. It soon became clear that his special talent was for songs, and in particular the setting of words by his friend Walter de la Mare. Of the 162 songs he was eventually to write, no fewer than 38 are to de la Mares poems. They range in mood from the dream-like serenity of Silver, to the jaunty good-humour of Five Eyes, and, without exception, capture the unique quality of the poets unusual imagination. Fanciful, mysterious, disturbing de la Mares world is that of a child who knows that appearances are not always what they seem. Gibbs matches the poets vision with music that has an equally deceptive simplicity. In all essentials, composer and poet speak with one voice an affinity that de la Mare was happy to acknowledge, and which he thought could only be said of one other composer: Herbert Howells. De la Mare, however, was the only major poet to whom Gibbs felt particularly drawn. Others who attracted his attention were often no more than competent amateurs. His friend and neighbour Sir Walter Mordaunt Currie was one such. He supplied the words not only for seventeen songs, but also the text for a Choral Symphony, Odysseus (1938), and a three-act opera based on Shakespeares Twelfth Night (completed in 1947 and as yet unperformed). Another was Margery Agrell the pen name of the soprano Ursula Greville who, as mistress of the publisher Kenneth Curwen, attracted the wrath of Peter Warlock when she ousted him as editor of The Sackbut in 1921. But minor verse can often be the basis for a successful song, and in this respect Armstrong Gibbs was no exception among composers. Although supported by his familys wealth, and to an increasing extent by the popularity of his songs, Gibbs felt it important to follow a useful professional career. From 1921 to 1939 he taught theory and composition at the Royal College of Music, and from 1923 to 1952 was much in demand as an Adjudicator at Competitive Music Festivals for which his songs and partsongs regularly provided suitable material. Among his more ambitious works are three symphonies and ten string quartets. (In 1934 he was awarded the Cobbett Gold Medal for services to British chamber music.) Apart from wartime years in the comparative safety and tranquillity of the Lake District, Armstrong Gibbs remained true to his native Essex, where he died on 12 May, 1960. Michael Hurd © 2002 |

The Waffle House in the 3900 block of University Drive in Huntsville scored a 74 with the Madison County Health Department.
The restaurant had scored an 83 during their previous inspection. This time, the health inspector reported raw eggs, stored above ready-to-eat foods, had leaked onto uncovered lettuce and jalapenos. The inspector also reported eggs stored above the griddle were nine degrees above the maximum temperature of 41F required to prevent bacterial growth in cold-holding foods. The inspector also took off points because the dish machine's final rinse was not hot enough and because the Waffle House staff was using damaged cutting boards and a damaged can opener.
The Waffle House in Guntersville scored an 83 with the Marshall County Health Department. The restaurant scored a 77 during their previous inspection. During the reinspection, the inspector reported eggs were at the wrong temperature and that the restaurant's ice maker was dirty.
The Arby's in Boaz scored a 76. The inspector reported cooked chicken held 25 degrees below the minimum temperature of 135F required for hot-holding foods. The inspector also reported workers were not sanitizing utensils correctly and that there was excessive grease on the ground.
The Jack's in Boaz scored an 80. The health department took off points for an employee drink cup sitting on a stock shelf and for a broken fryer scooper.
The Tin Top Diner in Albertville scored an 81. The inspector reported the hood system in the kitchen that releases grease laden air and pollutants had excessive buildup and needed cleaned.
The Denny's on University Drive in Huntsville made it off of the Madison County Health Department's reinspection schedule by scoring a 91. The restaurant scored a 79 during their previous inspection.

Panel to review Historic Preservation tax credit
Members of a panel created to review Missouri's tax credits, are leaning towards recommending that the cap on Historic Preservation tax credits be cut nearly in half. The incentives program is popular with developers, but Democratic Governor Jay Nixon and a group of Republican State Senators say it's draining off revenues from the state budget.
Tom Reeves co-chairs the subcommittee looking into Historic Preservation tax credits. He says he favors much of the recommendation from two years ago to reduce the annual cap from 140 million dollars a year to 75 million a year:
"Our recommendations were really a very thoughtful approach in how to help preserve this credit, make the credit more effective, and also provide some constraint as it relates to the budget, favoring a cap over annual authorizations," said Reeves.
Reeves plans to recommend the 75-million-dollar cap on Historic Preservation at tomorrow's full meeting of the Tax Credit Review Commission in Columbia.

By Greg Billing
Staff Writer
On Sunday, before the last stop on the northern leg of the Reds Caravan, the first cars pulled into the Museum of the United States Air Force parking lot at 6 a.m., right behind the cleaning crews. Fans lined up in the bitter cold a full four hours before the event started. At other stops a woman fainted and girls cried in the presence of Reds all-star second baseman Brandon Phillips. On Sunday, he received a marriage proposal.
No wonder Hall of Fame Reds broadcaster Marty Brennaman dubbed the northern leg the Rock Star Tour.
More than 2,000 fans packed the museum's Modern Flight Gallery to celebrate the Cincinnati Reds, setting a single-stop Caravan record. More than 1,000 fans greeted them at stops in Lima and Columbus on Saturday — also records for those sites.
"This is what it's all about," said Phillips, his group's biggest draw. "It's all about giving back to the fans and letting them get to know us players as normal people. That's what I love about going on these caravans, especially coming to Dayton. I don't know about all the other tours, but I know they love us.
"It really shows how much support and how big Reds Country really is."
Along with Phillips and Brennaman, the group also included president and CEO Bob Castellini, assistant GM Bob Miller, former first baseman and Dayton Dragons manager Todd Benzinger, minor league catcher Tucker Barnhart, broadcaster Chris Welch and mascots Mr. Red and Gapper.
A question-and-answer session preceded an autograph session. It was just a few minutes into the Q&A that Phillips received his proposal.
"Will you please marry my daughter," Caravan emcee Brennaman read from a submitted question.
Like the three-time Gold Glove winner he is, Phillips fielded it flawlessly.
"Where she at? What up, girl?" Phillips said, scanning the crowd for the daughter and flashing that winning smile. "It just depends on what she brings to the table."
"Are you done?" Brennaman deadpanned.
Phillips shouldn't have been surprised by the offer, if he was, especially after visits to other stops.
"It was crazy. There were some girls crying and one person fainted on me," Phillips said, clarifying that it wasn't an attempt to fall on top of him. "They didn't fall on me. They fell on the floor."
Brennaman fielded the obligatory question about Pete Rose and his Hall of Fame chances.
"If they're going to allow people like Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens (to get in), obviously they're on the ballot and Pete's not, then they've got to leave room for Pete Rose," he said.
With the success of Sunday's stop, Brennaman advocated making the Air Force museum the northern tour's final stop every year.
"We don't need to go into talking about how important the Dayton market and the surrounding areas are to this ball club," Brennaman said. "Dayton has always been synonymous with Cincinnati in terms of Reds baseball."

Redondo Beach to Host U19 7s Tourney |
School Age - Boys |
Santa Clarita RC, led by Coach Greg and Coach Ed were represented well with a full complement of club members including 4 talented players only 16 years old. Santa Clarita scored the biggest upset of the day with an opening game 19-7 victory over a very good Santa Monica side. Santa Monica RC led by scrumhalf Danny Thomas played inspired, hard hitting and aggressive rugby and was a bit limited in only having 7 players throughout the day. Palos Verdes rugby club coached by Jeremy Wilkinson played very good 7's all day long and their play did not reflect the 3 weeks that they have been playing 7's. This club has a lot of potential future stars. Hunter Bradshaw led all scorers with 29 points, from five tries and two conversions. |

Wolves News 4/7/10
The Warriors, who averaged 116.5 points in their previous four games, should have better luck against a Timberwolves team that has lost 24 of 26 and is yielding 107.5 points. Minnesota (15-62) has given up at least 100 points in 16 of 18 games, and is 7-46 when allowing opponents to reach triple digits.
The Warriors have had little trouble getting their offense on track in winning the first two meetings of the season with the Timberwolves, including a 145-105 home victory Nov. 9. Golden State, which has won nine of 12 against Minnesota, hasn't swept a season series from the Timberwolves since going 4-0 in 1991-92.
Darko will play tonight: Phil Miller/StarTribune
"It's sore, but I'm not running on my jaw, so I'll be fine," Milicic joked about the shot he took to the face from Jamaal Magloire's inadvertent elbow during Saturday's loss to the Heat. "I will play [Wednesday]."
He could have played Sunday in Oklahoma City, he insisted, but the team's doctor recommended being cautious because Milicic showed signs of a mild concussion.
Ray Richardson at the Pioneer Press asks each of the Wolves how they cope with losing
"The players see that we care," Rambis said. "We want them to do well. We want them to get better, and their character adds a lot to that. It's been a very difficult situation for all of us, but the players are still trying and digging. They've accepted the challenge late in the season of using every practice and game as an opportunity to learn and get better."
What makes matters worse is that Love was shorted minutes during the first half of his stellar rookie season by former coach Randy Wittman, a lack of playing time that cost him a spot in the rookie-sophomore game at All-Star weekend.
Asked if he felt like he had been "promoted" to the second unit this year and how he responded to watching his team struggle while he sits, Love said: "I don't look at it as a promotion or a demotion or whatever -- I just have to get it done in the time that the coach gives me. But it is tough sometimes coming in when we are down and in the third quarter it kind of seems like the team needs me.
-I give Rambis props because that sounds like some crazy thing that Phil Jackson would say.

Ats: I loved your post. I agree with it completely. There are many commonalities of the LTA where we can relate. What is also great about this forum is that is like group therapy. We get to know each other's stories. We try to help each other the best way we know how. What helped me so much was the support and also since so many knew my story and remember some of the things I posted, the wonderful members here helped me see reality. They reminded me of things that NPD did before. I was validated that an incident was part of a pattern.
We are all individuals here, but we do share that pain that a LTA inflicts and it is different than a short term affair.
...feels neglected (a well-documented and common occurrence), and slides down the slippery slope after poor boundaries and shared intimacies with an OP create the opportunity for an A and the perceived affirmations that go with that...
Yes^^^ for my case along with the:
addiction, etc.
I often wonder about this myself:
was it due to strength of character or fear? Or was it that there were few opportunities...
...when I am on my high horse. Which means me wondering on occasion if the resentment I sometimes feel is related to my not being able to go get what she got. It's a twisted approach to feeling bad about oneself, as in I was not attractive as evidenced by no one wanting an affair with me.
I do know that Tryn has found something that works for him
^^^ and probably for me. Not because it is the best approach in any absolute sense, but really due to my own circumstances and what happened in the immediate months after dday. In terms of carrots/sticks, I have no negative reinforcement options available to me now. Anthing like that, after what has happened over the last year, would seem like mean punishment. The window for that passed last year. All I can do is hold out the carrot, be most 'attractive', fix myself, be 'quality', and get to the place where I can choose to leave if she will not reciprocate.
[This message edited by MC_Jack at 2:44 PM, March 15th (Friday)]
Do you consider yourself reconciled, on the road to reconciliation, or kind of in a limbo state? Is your WW actively trying to help you heal? Are you happy with the way things are now in your marriage?
Sorry if those questions have been asked and answered before.
"Oh, why do my actions have consequences?" ~ Homer Simpson "She knew my one weakness: That I'm weak!" ~ Homer Simpson
During Year 1, the WW did everything she could to help me heal. Not sure what the WS can really do other than maximizing love languages, listening, talking about the A on demand, etc.
Her one caveat to interacting with me was that I could not be mean and cause conflict when she was working. That negatively affects her job and thus the health and safety of others. As she works a lot, it has been hard for me to respect that boundary...you know emotions run away with you.
Overall, I am happy about the M in its current state if I look at it objectively. To the degree I am unhappy about things, I seriously consider if it really isn't just my problems (FOO, now terrible ADD) that is in the way.
The only thing I am ambivalent about is my WW's self examination. She and her sisters were emotionally abused by her parents. They are all hosed up. One sister is so angry that she has trouble even seeing her parents. My wife is at the other end, she is in denial and still idolizes her parents on some level. She learned the art of self -delusion long ago.
My $1MM question:
We hear so much about the WS fixing themselves, almost as a prerequisite to having a good M. That the brokenness will undoubtedly re-manifest in repeat A behavior.
There is a good chance that in my M, that if I follow the "tryn plan", be quality/attractive that my WW will reciprocate never have an A again, and our M will be good by most standards. What do I do with the notion that she must be fixed?
I know she has anxiety, perfectionism, and conflict avoidance due to her witnessing abuse and not feeling good enough. Isn't it easier for me to work around that than for her to unwind deep seated emotional baggage? Now that I am an expert with new found 'emotional intelligence'...
[This message edited by MC_Jack at 3:42 PM, March 15th (Friday)]
All I can do is hold out the carrot, be most 'attractive', fix myself, be 'quality', and get to the place where I can choose to leave if she will not reciprocate.
ATS's first scenario described my STBXWW perfectly as well. Tryn's advice about quality applied to me in the same sense that it applies to MC JACK. In my case though I was in false R for a year and I was pretty much completely drained. It was a last ditch effort to save my M but I ended up doing the work on myself instead.
Soemwhere around the time I started posting in LTA I read somewhere that divorced men lived like 10 years, or something like that, less than their married counterparts. The rationale was they tie their identites, self worth, and well being to providing for their families. Once that's gone some lose their drive or some other stuff like that. I read books and went to different webistes all trying to save my W and my M but hadn't really focused on saving myself. The point was reading that statement made me really start to ask the questions that SMS just asked along with what do I actually want out of my life. At that time I literally said if I wasn't maried with kids what would my life look like and the answer was pretty damn sad. I had lost myself in the M. So I talked to the IC about it and decided to figure out what made me happy and what I wanted again. That was when the true changes started for me.
Detachment got easier and I decided that there was life after marriage. I wanted those 10 years back. If my WW wasn't going to be fully engaged in the M then I was better off by myself no matter how bad I thought it might be. The unknown became more inviting than the known misery I was currently living in.
I may be wrong, but I believe this is not about generalizing about men and woman thinking differently but much more about my comments about the reason behind why our spouses cheated. My saying everyone should be taking personal responsibility to change some things about themselves. I also suppose it could have been me asking the woman here what they thought about that comment that woman who watch soaps, those woman use up all there sex bucket therefore it is empty when the man comes home. And perhaps without these women even know it or why they are not in the mood Perhaps it was that comment about women argue with feelings, men dont.
My posts have been very specific on the needs of both men and woman. Those entire lists came to me at a very high cost. Am I generalizing those?
I can say in general that woman cheat because of lack of attention and men cheat for sex. Heck, thats what many of them told us.. right? That is a generalization. Can we accept that simple explanation? I didnt. Does that generalization fail us? I dont think so. Can it? Yes if you do nothing with it and you take the yes and dont expand on to a point where it might just bring resolution.
I am not going to stop generalizing. But owe you an explanation. Im glad you are good at math because you should get what I am saying
First, it is not my attempt to generalize that men are better than woman nor woman are better than men. I do believe men are better at some things and not others. The NFL has only men for a reason. I also can understand that women are good at many things men are not. I also realize everything has a bell curve. It does not mean the population does not intersect in cases or fully the same in others.
But when it comes to A related things, there are differences. Differences in a womans needs verse a mans need. These are natural differences in how a woman behaves and how men behave and they are taught to us by our FOO. Some men and women characteristic are almost exact, some are not. But within each one of those differences characteristic there are people who will fall into a mans curve and, the same goes for a man falling into a womans curve. I dont paint my nails but women do. I might doll myself some, to the extent most men do (BTW.. a womans need.. not really a mans need unless he is gay.. another generalization perhaps, but every man I know is not that doll up kinda man, 30 minutes, hair gel, cologne, a jacket and off we go..)
I can generalize that in no way as a population, women think, have the same desires, and behave the same when it comes to many aspects of sex. My W and have had openly safe discussions about this many times. She has discussed it with her friends. Her own obgyn told my W, when she figures it out, please tell her. I have had conversation with the men friends. I have had a Physiologist tell me that too, that is fact. You can read it everywhere. And many needs of a woman overlap as to be the same as a man. Our FOO teach us to think this and it is gender based. It does not mean the end result wont always be the same. I am not saying Ws dont want sex all the time either. I think they do. But how a man behaves, how we think, which is different for a man and woman will result in the door being opened.. or shut.
Iwant likes my graphics.. lol..
What I hear you saying I should stop generalizing and get more specific. I wish I knew the subjects of generalizing you are offended? Was it my belief that men think different than women? I make an argument. We are different in both grey and white matter. No big deal I think. Why is that offensive? Nell corrected me. Or was it a comment I made that woman generally argue with feelings, men dont. My comment about the soaps was to get you fine ladies feedback. Am I wrong for wanting to know your feedback?
If society is telling women to take her man, sweep him off his feet, carry him upstairs, rock his world. Can a woman achieve the same task men are supposed to do? No. My wife couldnt because I am 195 lbs.. and she is about 115. Could some women do it? Yes. At least some Ive seen at the gym. Its rare and not the norm. If men are physically different, why not mentally? We are on this earth, a man and woman, and are suppose to have difference roles. Its nature to me. You are a woman, I am a man. We think different, we behave different. That is a norm to me. I think it is fair to speak norms. I would never recommend telling you to stop posting any comment you have, and I expect the same from you. You make valuable post and I value each and every one of your post. Now, I gotta go love my wife a bit with a glass of wine and look forward to your future post.
For the newbies.. One thing I do know, that someone from the tribe post here with a troubled mind, we circle the wagons.

know she has anxiety, perfectionism, and conflict avoidance due to her witnessing abuse and not feeling good enough. Isn't it easier for me to work around that than for her to unwind deep seated emotional baggage? Now that I am an expert with new found 'emotional intelligence'...
ETA: I was in false R for a year because my WW never addressed her issues. She also listened to me and tried to help me cope but in the end she was the one that initially said she couldn't do it anymore bu tnever filed. So we ended up in a miserable limbo like state. She never would address her issues which she acknowledged but thougth they didn't matter. Everybody including the C could see it was those issues that needed to be addressed but you can't force someone to address them.

But seriously, just because something statistical is descriptive does not mean that it has any predictive power. So no erason to take offense anyone, ESPECIALLY when we are having intellectual discussions.
7yrs et al: It is a matter of patience. She knows the issues at hand. She knows the pain she caused. She only has a certain amount of emotional capacity on a daily level to handle 'issues'.
[This message edited by MC_Jack at 4:04 PM, March 15th (Friday)]
But I do still spend a lot of time brooding about what kind of person can do this thing and whether I can ever trust him again. And the whole thing that Tryn brings up re the fundamental unfairness of it all. My life was really destroyed through no fault of my own, and now I have to live with this sense of failure (which I know is irrational) and the sense that I have a second-rate relationship, whereas before I lived in a fantasy land of thinking I had the best husband ever and I was so, so lucky. Although that may sound spoiled to you, you have to realize how messed up my relationships have been in general -- so having a happy marriage was a major accomplishment for me.
So, that's about me and the stuff I need to work on. MC, I think you do need to get your wife to work on stuff, because if you feel you're doing all the work, making the compromises, you're never going to feel safe. (Not that I expect I ever will.) And what's so hard about this is that our LTA WSs have had such a long time to build up those emotional walls that it's hell trying to knock them down. It's all very well for us to say that they need to do the work and they need to realize the pain they've caused, but the truth is that LTAers are a different kettle of fish -- by definition they're pretty good at avoiding things. So that puts us in a difficult position. I do feel I have to keep pushing WH, although he tells me that I'm over-anxious about this. Perhaps I am and maybe I can let go at this point. My IC was questioning my motivation for wanting to talk to his IC -- once again, that I don't trust him to do the work, and I don't trust his IC to push him. And this is yet another sign of me taking the reins and being codependent. So I do need to let go.
Bit of a ramble...
You realize that a number of posters stick around and continue to check in on each other so we do have a continuity that you might not find on the other forums.
We get 'to know' each other and each other's stories and so, we can continue to offer support through the years....yes years.... (sigh)
MCJack- When it comes to how to deal with a FWS after d-day I do worry about those that are taking a very laid back or rug sweeping approach.
From my personal experience, and all of my reading in tons of books, as well as years on SI and other sites there is a pattern....
and that is if the WS is not confronted with the reality of their actions and if there are few if any consequences very often the WS continues in the affair or returns to that behavior over time.
I do think that Tryin's advice and approach can have value to those that are clearly reconciled and in a situation where the WS is remorseful and wants to work on the marriage.
But...if the WS is on the fence,still cake eating, or in the 'fog'....well...being nice and walking on egg shells does not make them commit to the marriage.
I compare it to alcoholism. Simply stopping drinking is NOT enough. That is called a 'dry drunk'. Its someone that has stopped drinking but did not do any work on themselves, did not attend AA or IC, didn't even do any reading or introspection to try to figure how they got the point that they did. They still have that 'toxic thinking' or as they say in AA that 'stinking thinking'.
The spouse that thought he or she would be thrilled if the alcoholic spouse stopped drinking soon realize that many of the negative dynamics in the family are still there.
And... what is the thing that usually works best for an alcoholic to finally get sober? and finally see the light? its hitting bottom.
it has to be a hard hit too not a delicate little tickle or a reminder....
I have a female relative that is an alcoholic. I am extremely worried about her. Her life is going downhill in so many ways and yet no one is willing to have an intervention with her. No one wants to be the bad guy. But, the outcome is that no one has a real relationship with her anyway. She is detached, depressed, isolated, grouchy, unhappy etc. Last year she had a DUI and due to the nature of her job this was huge because if she lost her license she could very well lose her job especially if they found out it was due to a DUI.
I was almost relieved because I thought this would finally be her 'bottom'. She would have big consequences that would wake her up. But...unfortunately what happened is that the court system treated her very gently. They bought her damsel in distress story. they believed her when she said that she refused the breathalyzer because she was 'scared' of the cop. They believed her when she said she was driving erratically due to all the meds she takes (which she does because her health has deteriorated to such an extent due to her drinking!).
anyway..she got off very easy...didn't lose her job, only lost her license for a short time and guess what?
she's still drinking... and driving...
when someone is in denial about their behavior the gentle approach does not wake them and does not help them realize what they are losing.
Follow-up questions...
WS is remorseful and wants to work on the marriage.
WS is on the fence,still cake eating, or in the 'fog'.
However, where does one find consequences other than hurt feelings:
What might consequences be that my WW can have other than me punishing her? She knows what she did was terrible, wrong, etc. At this point she has had no consequences other than dealing with me and my pain. I don't consider NC, ending the A, going to MC, being honest, etc. as being consequences.
I know you were making a general statement, but was wondering if you had any thoughts or me in particular....?
[This message edited by MC_Jack at 5:11 PM, March 15th (Friday)]
Do you feel that your FWW has done enough introspection as to what led up to the affair and what she said to herself to allow it to continue for so long?
I don't think that we as BS should 'punish' the WS but we can have demands as to what we need in order to reconcile,trust again, feel safe, and heal.
For example even though we were separated my FWH made all of his passwords, cell phone bills, credit card bills etc. available to me. That was one of my requirements. Total transparency.
I felt that I was lied to for so many years that now I deserved to know the truth about everything.
He also answered all of my questions and gave me a detailed timeline of his 5 yr LTA.
I feel that a timeline is a very valuable thing to do-both for the BS but also for the WS. Often, writing everything down in a timeline is the first time that the WS sees in black and white what he/she had done. They spend so much time compartmentalizing and in a state of denial that this may be the first time they face everything.
Another thing that was important to me was my FWH going to IC and AA.
That got my attention and made me slowly warm up to the idea of R. I was surprised that he had embarked on this road of self analysis because it was not something that he would have never done before d-day.
[This message edited by njgal480 at 5:59 PM, March 15th (Friday)]
I do not know. It's hard to really know isn't it?
The word 'consequences' made me recall that in Linda McDonald's book (How to Help your Spouse Heal from Your Affair) she mentions that it is the natural and logical consequences to the affair which gives the WS the incentive to find and confront inner demons.
For me, that may have included: * Post-nup * Apology to everyone in the family (who up until the apology were either thinking that I was off my rocker, poor XWH, or talking behind my back) * Giving me what he had given to the COW tenfold (spent $200 on her birthday present; spend $2,000 on mine) * Spend all the time necessary to figure out his issues and practice learning new habits to avoid said issues in the future * Do whatever I asked him to do to make me feel safe (within reason... and you'll have to trust me when I tell you that I was excessively reasonable) * In addition to transparency, remorse, apologies and understanding
I needed to know that he understood that what he did was incredibly hurtful to his family and that he understood that the consequences were so severe that he would not hurt us in that way ever again. That, and realizing what led him to the LTA in the first place would have made me feel safe and valued, and thus loved.
Which would (theoretically) lead to a relationship of reciprocal positivity.
I think your list of needs was very appropriate.
It's a shame that your WS was not able to do those things for you.
My FWH did make amends by apologizing to my children and other family members as well. I think he did that based on suggestions in AA. But, it was one more step that helped in my healing.
MCJack- I agree with Linda McDonald about natural consequences for the affair. That's why I do not agree with covering it up for the WS and protecting them from others finding out or worrying if the WS is 'upset' about the fallout. The fallout post d-day is a natural consequence of their actions.
I got the call that I was needed. Like Batman. Except far more kickassy.
One thing I do know, that someone from the tribe post here with a troubled mind, we circle the wagons.
That is what we here at LTA do best. We are a family who may not always agree on the details, but we do agree to help one another to the best of our ability.
MCJack: In trying to answer your $1M question:
MCJack: No, you do not have to punish her. From what you have told us, your WW is remorseful and is trying to help you with your pain.
BUT, from the wonderful post from NJgal:
I compare it to alcoholism. Simply stopping drinking is NOT enough. That is called a 'dry drunk'. Its someone that has stopped drinking but did not do any work on themselves, did not attend AA or IC, didn't even do any reading or introspection to try to figure how they got the point that they did. They still have that 'toxic thinking' or as they say in AA that 'stinking thinking'. The spouse that thought he or she would be thrilled if the alcoholic spouse stopped drinking soon realize that many of the negative dynamics in the family are still there
The spouse that thought he or she would be thrilled if the alcoholic spouse stopped drinking soon realize that many of the negative dynamics in the family are still there
Just the WS knowing what they did was wrong and realizes how much it hurt the BS is not enough. The "consequences" are there. BUT now the REQUIREMENTS to enter into the new marriage should be some IC or MC to help the WS figure out their issues that they allowed themeselves to do what they did to someone they love.
I agree with Tryn that if the WS is remorseful and is trying their best, and the BS decides to give R a try, then the "Tryn Plan" as MC Jack put it, would be appropriate. But, still IC and MC are probably the best thing for the WS in a LTA. This is not a ONS or a short term A where one "made a stupid mistake". This is a LTA that lasted for YEARS.
Something is definitely wrong.
Even with NPD where it is "legal" in his country, it was WRONG (and illegal) to keep it a secret. All the secrecy and deceit for years with a WS is a big part of it, not just the A. There is a lot going on. As NJgal very aptly puts it, it's like a "dry drunk". The issues are still there.
NJgal: Thank you so very much for all your caring and help that you put into your posts to help us. Your wonderful support is so greatly appreciated. I know that just your kind words and caring has helped me so very much, more than you'll ever know. {{{{{NJGal}}}
7yrs: I'm just getting to that point now. It's 3.5 years from my DDay, the first year was false R. The part I made in bold in your quote is just what I'm coming to. Miracle said to me something that stuck that I have often said I had an "aha moment" or I "saw" something, but then I went back into my shell because I could not or would not face it. The reality was too much for me to take in.
My life was really destroyed through no fault of my own, and now I have to live with this sense of failure (which I know is irrational) and the sense that I have a second-rate relationship, whereas before I lived in a fantasy land of thinking I had the best husband ever and I was so, so lucky
This is one of the hardest things about a LTA. It was that there was two different "realities" going on, and it's hard to reconcile it in our head. Many people on LTA have said, that YOU did live an authentic life. You were true and loyal and loved your WH, even though what you were doing was based on the fantasy that the WS was loyal and loving. That is the difficult thing to reconcile. YOU WERE TRUE and loyal. That is a fact. Reconciling our new reality and facts is the hardest thing to do. A LTA has a lot of new info to process and can be very difficult.
So, that's about me and the stuff I need to work on
That is stuff you can share here. This thread is different. There is no "TJ" if you know what I mean. It's "group therapy" :smile
Nell: NPD is not here at the moment, but is coming back next week Supposedly he will be coming again in the summer (maybe June or July) and bringing the OC's and OW to the US for a few weeks. NOT to my house if I can help it. Legally, I don't think I can keep him from doing this if he wants to, but I have to try to be prepared. All of this is probably why I have slipped into a deep depression this past month. A lot of suicidal ideation.... a lot of FOO issues and everything coming to a head.
If it wasn't for the people here at the tribe and my crazy neighbor , I wouldn't be here, literally.
I love you all. Although I read as much as I can and don't always answer everyone's posts, I do think about you, and have you in my prayers.
I have a question about stress. I have noticed that I am having a hard time dealing with the stress from my WH#2's affair. This is making me not deal with stress over other issues and is having a domino affect on me.
I have never had a problem dealing with stress before and actually trived on stress in my job. I can't remember a time in my life that I didn't have a great deal of stress going on and it has never affected me this way. I can't concentrate for long, have to make myself leave the house to do errands, haven't worked in 1.5yrs (living off my savings),any holidays are hell for me, anything out of my new normal routine sends me in a spiral downward and it takes me days to get myself back to normal. I would like to sit and have the crying spell of my life, but I can't even cry anymore.
I am asking for meds when I see the doctor on the 28th, so hopefully that might be the answer. I hate to take meds, especially mind altering meds so I know I am desperate to get out of this funk I am in. Has anyone else experienced stress differently than they did before the affair? How or what did you do to handle it now?
Theres some freedom in that though. Just a thought.
I agree that they're not. It's a difficult thing to accept, but the truth is that often when people cheat there are no consequences, whether they're caught or not. It's another part of the appeal. It's a calculated risk. Often people here will say, "well, it damages a marriage even if the BS doesn't know..."
Perhaps it does. Fact is though, the WS didn't want to fix or improve the marriage, if they did, they would have. Sometimes I see "I tried to improve things first (this is usually followed by a huge list of their spouse's faults, and the recitation that they tried to improve their marriage by listing said faults to spouse, insisting they stop and suggesting marriage counseling...) So, that doesn't count. You improve things, truly, by changing yourself, not your spouse.
Now, that doesn't mean you conform to the spouse and not get your needs met, be true to yourself, etc. But you make changes from your own seat of power within your own realm.
When you change how you relate to someone, they are forced to change in response.
But also, don't assume that the WS was unhappy with the marriage to start with. Many are perfectly happy with their marriage. Kind of like people who have a commuting car and a "fun" car.

Mobile navigation systems have been one of the most profitable purveyors of mobile content, with subscribers paying an average of $5 to $10 for mobile GPS access. But Google announced today that it will be launching a free turn-by-turn mobile navigation system next week. And the news ought to have navigation companies worried about their future.
Google's system will launch next week on Motorola's Droid phone and will eventually roll out to other phones, including the iPhone. Can GPS companies compete with free?
