The Cardinals begin defense of their championship tonight by helping the newly named Miami Marlins open their new stadium. Kyle Lohse gets the ball for the Cardinals while Josh Johnson goes for the Marlins. The Cardinals also play their first game in a decade without Albert Pujols on the roster. Despite that loss, the projections still expect the Cardinals to contend for the division title.

I think the Cards, Brewers and Reds are in a three-team race for most of the season. But there's that 1% chance for the Cubs…

Oh man, I wasn't going to believe it until I could see a regular season game, but….. MLB.TV thinks I paid for this season but I haven't. I don't like to steal, but if you are going to give me something, I'm going to take it. Woo!

Maybe so, I'm just happy my MLB.TV account works on a regular season game. Unless this is one of them "free" games they do…. -
I can see why batters would be a bit annoyed by that thing sitting right next to the batters' eye. -

lol ACT you edited your comment so now my reply makes no sense.
Anyway, cheers to incompetence…

Nope. Today's free game was an exhibition between the Blue Jays and Indians. -
All that green…and that color of green.
It looks like vomit.
I just realized I have to write a series preview tonight lol

Tom Ricketts will be on WSCR tomorrow at 7:30 AM CST to speak about the money for Wrigley renovations. It can be streamed live at 670thescore.com, or the podcast can be downloaded from that same site shortly after the interview.
I don't care what anyone says. other than that ridiculous thing in CF, this is an awesome ballpark.

I hope MGL didn't hear the part where they discussed Ozzie's baserunning philosophy. He'd probably die of a heart attack.

Holy cavernous outfield, Mish. How did that not go out?

One last comment before I go.
If you stare at the superfriends image below long enough, everyone turns into either a Longneck, Shortneck or a Normalneck. It's pretty creepy.
Nice of the Cards to show the Cubs how to properly K-CS.
55 Recalcitrant Blogger Nate says:
That homerun thing looks like those folders girls used to have in middle school.

The look of this ballpark gets old fast. It looks like Steve Zissou and Liberace founded a design firm and this was their first project.
64 ACT says:
@ Rice Cube:
What's the point of spending that money on the home run display when they made the stadium so huge? -
I like what I've seen of the ballpark. Small disclaimer though, I'm colorblind lol
My only big complaint is the colors on the M logo. My wife pointed out that it looks more Southwestern than Miami-y
@ Berselius:
I'm telling you, they're trying to appeal to the Hispanic population. The whole thing reminds me of a Mexican carnival. In a good way. -
70 ACT says:
The Marlins' logo isn't bad, in my opinion. Maybe it has one color too much. Lose the yellow.
Comment from Ryno on last year's opening day preview
If we weren't running the WCO next year, I'd love to take Kaepernick. I think he's a better prospect than Newton.

The Trek world returns to Port Henry
Jun 30, 2008 — One of the North Country's most famous acting troupes is back in action this summer. This production company doesn't have a stage or a theater. Instead, the volunteers gather in an old used-car garage in Port Henry to film new episodes of the famous TV series "Star Trek." The troupe brings to life the show's classic era, with new voyages and new adventures for Captain Kirk and Spock and the other iconic characters. The episodes air on the internet, drawing hundreds of thousands of viewers. Brian Mann dropped by the set last week and has our story. Go to full article
In a Port Henry garage, the stars
Jul 17, 2006 — Shooting wraps up this week in Port Henry on a new made-for-internet Star Trek episode. The project is directed by Hollywood actor Tim Russ, who played the Vulcan Tuvok in the 1990s. Stars include Walter Koenig, the original Chekov, and Nichelle Nichols, who played Lt. Uhura. As Brian Mann reports, they've partnered with local fans and film-makers intent on keeping the Trek universe alive. Go to full article
Star Trek's Bold New Frontier in Port Henry
Jul 12, 2006 — This week, an empty Chevy dealership in the Champlain Valley town of Port Henry has come to life again. The dusty building has been transformed by a small group of Star Trek fans into a professional-quality movie studio. Using volunteer labor and some surprising sources of money, the group is creating new Star Trek episodes that harken back to the TV show's glory days in the late 1960s. Brian Mann has our story.

Alia is like most seven-year-olds spending time at school and playing with her little sisters, but unlike the rest this little girl is on a mission to help Utah's homeless.
Alia told ABC4 News, "You can't be happy when you know people out there don't have good birthdays."
Three weeks ago she decided to put together bags to pass out to the homeless in Salt Lake City.
Alia's Mom Colleen said, "I was stunned at first."
Alia's Mom was surprised with the idea, especially because it was all her daughter.
Colleen said, "It was all in her own head, definitely not from me."
The seven-year-old got to work asking for donations.
Alia said, "I asked for people at church, my dad's co workers and they all donated."
Alia collected toothbrushes, socks, stuffed animals and more; in all Alia gathered 1200 items to help other.
Colleen said, "My living room was over flowing."
Over the Easter weekend Alia passed out 100 bags during the Rescue Mission's easter lunch and people watching her were so impressed.
Colleen said, "She could give them a smile and you could see the love in her face."
Alia has left over donations so she decided to do more calling it her new plan: simply seven.
Alia explained the name, "It's God's special number and I'm seven."
She hopes to give away at least seven of what she now calls "birthday bags" a week and then get more people to help her.
Alia said, "I really, really hope they see me on this and they do it too."
To donate, email Alia email@example.com or visit Alia's blog, the link is on this page.

Chilled 33cl bottle poured into a tulip glass
Pours very dark with sediment sinking to the bottom of the glass. Holds a reasonable amount of head and sticky lacing.
Aroma is thick with dark fruits however it is a little subtle compared to similar beers.
It is the taste where this beer makes its mark. A complex palate soaked with those "fruits of the forest" or "Black Forest Cake" like characteristics. Creamy chocolate an malt hide below the surface of all that dark fruit and a mild degree of herbal spice with an emphasis on coriander sits comfortable amongst the dominant flavors.
The massive introduction of fruit eventually gives way to a sticky aftertaste and a very warm finish.

Decent beer. It has a brown-orange color, with a thin white head. Very smooth to drink, with a light carbonation. It has a fruity taste, but very lightly. Unique, have never drunk anything like this. Was a bit worried when i saw the color, but overall this is definitely an Ok beer.

look: 3.25 | smell: 4.5 | taste: 3 | feel: 3 | overall: 3.25
This bottle is a vintage from the late '80's.
The beer actually still had some carb when I popped the cap! Cool! It pours REAL flat though. And there is no chance this thing is going to produce any kind of head. The body is a dark caramel, that has chunks of dark sediment settling at the bottom of the glass, smaller swirling of sediment throughout the beer.
The nose on this is pretty fantastic. There are dark fruits every where: figs, dates. Man, this is incredibly sweet and syrupy, lots of honey here too.
And... this is where the beer finally takes a turn. This really does not have much of anything to offer on the palate as far as flavors go. Mid-palate I detect just a little of the honey sweetness suggested by the nose, and then that band-aid flavor sets in a little. The finish also has a bunch mineral water bitterness.
The beer is flat, so really watery, just a little dry.
My final take on this: do not take a bottle of this and set it aside for near on twenty five years. I promise you this beer is passed its prime by this point.

At the Pilsner Club, Amsterdam.
Murky oxblood with tan film.
Big sour rye loaf and cherry nose.
Ginger bread cake, cream soda, plum, brown sugar, a clove hit, raspberry scone and earthy, spicy hops.
Creme brulee end and clove linger.
Fizzy, medium, chewy.
Going in blind (and I didn't order an InBev product knowingly!) I guessed this was a dubbel. Good fruit, fizzy enough to clear itself, and enough chew. "Finish like a 747 landing," said the man.

The label alone bumps up the appearance rating on this one. I'm not sure that is the rule but beer should be fun, so :p. Opaque caramel color with a dense white head and tiny Don Ho-like bubbles running up the sides. It smells like raspberries, wood and leather. Sort of a rural barn smell without the manure. The taste is dry and has that leather thing going on. Really nice. There is something vaguely biscuit as well. The mouthfeel is soft and tingly. Like a fresh stripper. Overall a really nice beer. It is dominated by its dryness and is subtle but refreshing.

Poured in a chalice.
Dark amber lots of carb, clear, one finger offwhite head, good retention and lacing
Smell of yeast, tart and sweet, caramel malts with sour banana
Some sweet bready malts, Ends very dry and only slightly bitter, more like peppery, aftertaste is a minor turnoff
Highly carbonated and accordingly a fluffy to tickling feel, after some time all harshness is gone and it is just fluffy and gorgous, warming alcohol, medium body
Highly enjoyable beer in the tradition of belgian strong dark ales like a St. Bernardus Prior or a Rochefort 8. Lacks a bit of complexity to be rated at the same level, though.

look: 3.75 | smell: 4 | taste: 4 | feel: 4.25 | overall: 4.25
A: Half way between dark brown and golden, as though sprite and coke were mixed. Cloudy, no apparent carbonation. 2 fingers of off white head, almost white with a dirty touch of brown watercolour lightly washed in. Great lacing.
S: Smokey, dark fruits, Belgian yeasts much like North American versions of Belgian style yeasts. I am reminded of Unibroue, especially the dark Belgians like La Terrible and 17. Acidic fruit. Pheonols. Some alcohol.
T: Totally follows the nose, but smooth and complex moreso than I expected. Smokey, La Terrible is totally coming to mind, Belgian yeasts like the ones used in North American stains, a hit of fruitiness, then it rounds off. Alcohol present, at 8.5% its well hidden. Pheonols there, especially come in at the end and linger.
M: Medium to heavy, leaning into heavy body but complex, medium amount of foamy bubbles in carbonation.
O: Great Belgian beer, well reminded of Unibroue here in China so I am happy. Complex and unique for what's available to me, so I would like to try it again. Great by itself.

Geraldine has always seemed so middle aged to me, but I recently reread Lord Edgeware Dies by Agatha Christie where Lord Edgeware has a daughter named Geraldine, and I've really warmed up to it. Her cousin calls her Dina (DEE-na), which I thought was a sweet nickname. It has the same sort of charm that Theodora does, I think.
So...am I crazy? Is Geraldine too dated, or could it come back?Teen writer, pianist, sci-fi geek, cat-owner and name enthusiast.

I've warmed to Geraldine over the years too. It has its own vintage charm which I find appealing. Lately for some unknown reason, I've been thinking about a sister trio with the names Claudine, Georgette and Suzanne so Geraldine has the same vibe as those names! I love Agatha Christie mysteries. Geraldine also has a positive association for me. It was the name of one of the funniest woman I've ever met who died of cancer way too soon. Geraldine needs to be taken from the shelf and dusted off so she can shine again!
All the best,

I like it, but can't get away from the Gerald part, which I don't think sounds pretty at all. That said, it has a strong, vintage sound to it, which I like. I'd only use it as a middle paired with something more feminine, though. (I like my frilly princess names )
I'm just trying to behave as I think a friend should behave. Granted, I haven't had much practice.

bbirtle | Route Climbed: Normal Route (on skis) Date Climbed: Sept 12, 2005 | |
Gonna see how many times I can climb this thing before I leave mid-November. :-) This one was the best of the five though... first tracks on skis (although a dozen or so on foot ahead of me) in 25cm of beautiful powder snow. The 15 second decent not perhaps worth the 1 hour ascent, but good exercise. Finished off doing tricks in the Zermatt Gravity Park. Amazing how many get so kitted out and serious about what is basically a dead-easy 1 hour walk in the snow! Passed many very serious-looking guided groups... | ||

Dusted off the skis for the first ski season of the winter! Seems 50cm+ fell up there, but unfortunately the wind got to it before I did... conditions going up were perfectly fine. The ski down was, well... better than *walking* down anyway. Nice to be back on skis and out on such a fine afternoon. Finished off hitting kickers in the Gravity Park. | ||

The weather wasn't great in Zermatt, but it was much better up on the Klein Matterhorn. I threw on my crampons and had my axe in hand and headed up to the summit. I was surprised how many guided parties were on this peak. Overall, the whole trip took about three hours round trip. Overall I think it was worth the 72 CF to take the Klein Matterhorn cable car. | ||

Breithorn the second. The weather was most beautiful, much better than the first. The same are the fotos. It's a super-view to Matterhorn, Monte Rosa, Mt. Blanc a.o. | ||

It was my first 4000er. The route is very easy in good weather, from Klein Matterhorn it must be even too easy. You can find more detailed description under http://zuraw.iostrow.com/mountains2004.html | ||

Pleasant easy walk on snow, done as acclimatisation for Mont Blanc. Great views, and quite a feeling standing on top of my first 4000er! | ||

Done as a "get to know you" climb with a new partner and for acclimatization. Fine enough time and great weather. Crowded, but not overly so. | ||

Had great weather with two new friends, doing another "get to know you" (aka "will you two kill me if I rope together on something more serious?") hike. But I was dying on the way down... wishing I had my skis, with excellent spring snow conditions that would have made for a great ski down. We got caught in a thunderstorm that finally hit about 10min from the cablecar station. I was pulling my two partners like crazy roped together desperately trying to get out from underneath the ski lift and back to safety while lightning struck all around and hail so hard it left little blood blisters on my hands! Good fun. | ||

Nice summit ridge, route was fairly crowded. Easy and nice to start e.g. a Monte Rosa tour. We descended over the East ridge to point 4075m. From there on, one can go further to Breithorn Mittelgipfel. Is a short but very nice ridge! | ||

Excellent service
Review by confirmed purchaser
We were very pleased with the service we received. I had ordered two items: a platter and a jug, for my husbands birthday but then the jug was out of stock. I explained that I would be happy for the platter ton be held in case thei I jug was back in stock before his birthday . I was told they would hold it back but would send it in good time if the other item did not come in. This is what happened and we were very pleased as I did not have to send a reminder for it to be sent. The jug has now arrived too and we are very pleased with the product and the presentation of it.

In 1982, David Hasselhoff landed in prime time for one of the most recognizable roles of his career, that of Michael Knight on the hit show Knight Rider. The show was a huge success in the United States and overseas and made him one of the most recognizable actors on TV. In 1989, Hasselhoff returned to TV to produce and star in the series Baywatch, which became the most watched show in TV history.
Early Life and Career
Actor, director, producer, musician. Born David Michael Hasselhoff on July 17, 1952 in Baltimore, Maryland. As a child, Hasselhoff and his family moved frequently and the relatively shy youngster became interested in acting, singing and dancing. He attended the Academy of Dramatic Arts in Michigan and the California Institute of the Arts in Valencia, California. In 1973, he landed a regular role on the soap opera, The Young and The Restless.
Night Rider and Baywatch
In 1982, Hasselhoff moved to prime time to star in Knight Rider. He played Michael Knight on the show, and his character fought all types of crimes and misdeeds with the help of a super car called KITT. Veteran actor William Daniels provided the voice for KITT. The series quickly became a huge success in the United States and overseas and made him one of the most recognizable actors on television. The acclaim helped Hasselhoff launch his music career, which has been particularly successful in Europe.
Knight Rider ended in 1986, but Hasselhoff wasn't off the air for long. In 1989, he returned to television to produce and star in the series Baywatch. He played Mitch Bucannon, who oversaw a group of lifeguards in California. The beachy adventure show had a rocky start, and it moved from network television to syndicated television after its first season. But it soon developed a following, especially overseas. In addition to Hasselhoff, Baywatch also featured Yasmine Bleeth, Carmen Electra and Pamela Anderson. The series ran until 2000 and even launched two spin-off series, Baywatch Nights and Baywatch Hawaii.
Later Career
Since the end of Baywatch, Hasselhoff has tackled a variety of projects. He made his debut on Broadway in Jekyll and Hyde in 2000, playing the title character. Since then, Hasselhoff has appeared in a number of different theatrical productions, including a run in The Producers in Las Vegas in 2007. It was during this time that his daughter Taylor created the now infamous video of a drunk Hasselhoff trying to eat a cheeseburger. Soon after the incident, Hasselhoff reportedly worked to get sober. He told People magazine that "Thanks to the tape, I realized this was a problem that I needed to deal with."
In 2006, Hasselhoff returned to the small screen as a judge on the summer competition series America's Got Talent. He sat alongside Piers Morgan and Sharon Osbourne for four seasons before leaving in 2010. Hasselhoff was replaced by comedian Howie Mandel. With his daughters Taylor and Hayley, he branched out into reality television on The Hasselhoffs, a short-lived series in 2010. That same year, Hasselhoff showed off his fancy footwork as a contestant on Dancing With the Stars.

If we are paying him 5.5 per why didn't we just resign Quin? Am I missing something? How is this deal better?

Re: Ed Reed to visit Texans
I really don't think Reed wants to play in Houston. I think Baltimore let him test the market to see what he could get. Now he wants Baltimore to match what Houston offered and they won't do it. Now Reed is stuck with the prospect of playing somewhere he doesn't want to for more money or signing for less and ending his career in Baltimore. Ozzie is one smart gm. This is all just speculation on my part of course.

Re: Ed Reed to visit Texans
I always felt Manning would be the best fit at free safety. He played free safety and nickel back for the Bears. It shouldn't be that hard to find a run-stopper to play strong safety.

Re: Ed Reed to visit Texans
Could all you guys who are certain that Ed Reed is a scrub and all of a sudden is a worthless football player please expand on those comments? Provide some kind of substantial proof that he will not play well next year, for whoever that is?
Annoying when 'fans' spew personal sentiment all over the place all the while blinded to the football ability. Ed Reed makes plays. He will make plays next year, why wouldnt he? Wasnt he making plays in the Super Bowl? What happened in 1 month that leads anyone to believe he is not worth a shot? Crazy talk. |

Didn't Baltimore have CB problems this year? If we sign him he won't be the best player in our secondary. it'll be sick.

Re: Ed Reed to visit Texans
It was important for the Texans to retain Quin, but.... and Dread-Head likes big butts and can not lie....' I digress, Ed Reed even at his age is a significant upgrade over Quin... Quin's upside was his age. His younger age. As an aside..... I suggested many pages ago in this same thread, the Texans got "Leigh Boddened'd"... At the end of the day, I'm not pannicking over losing Quin, or apparently being duped by Ed Reed. This actually happens to be a pretty strong draft class for safeties... In other words, why wouldn't Ed Reed visit a contender who are hungry for a safety? Up his value to A) Baltimore and B) Teams that can overspend.

Re: Ed Reed to visit Texans
Yeah, Webb got hurt against Dallas right before they played us if I remember right and they never really could find someone to fill the void on the other side. They all just couldn't get it done. Factor in a hobbled Suggs and Ngata, aging Lewis, and suspect players around him then its no wonder that Reed didn't look great last year.
03-18-2013 | #1394 | |
Re: Ed Reed to visit Texans
To answer the root question of what I hope is hyperbole, all anyone said is that Quin was a better player last year. Others disagree. That's fine, but it's hard to seriously make the case that one is head and shoulders above the other. Burn %: Quin - 48.4%, Reed 55.6% Yds allwed rec.: Quin - 334, Reed - 457 Also, Quin was better in tackling, while Reed had 4 INTs to Quin's 2. How that translates across systems is anyone's guess, but neither one are a scrub or worthless. Neither one is head and shoulders ahead of Reed. I think Quin was the better player last year, and I think Quin will never be half the player Reed has been over his career. Do with that what you will, I guess.

Re: Ed Reed to visit Texans
Not really- we lost Ladarious Webb in Week 8 to an ACL- he was our best CB. Cary Williams played really ell for us down the stretch, Jimmy Smith, former 1st rder, got hurt but came on in the playoffs. Corey Graham played really well (made C Williams expendable in FA this year), and someother young guys held up well. Pollard was a beast back tere in coverage- we played 2 high or cover 2 most of the time with some single high safety (Reed) or cover zero.

- Developer: Volition Inc.
- Publisher: Deep Silver
- Genre: Action Adventure Modern
- Release Date: Aug 20, 2013
- ESRB: Mature
References from Saints Row series
The simulation "Leave It To The Saints" is an apology of Leave It To Beaver. Among things the mom states is "Somebody called Dex was right here requesting for you however I didn't acknowledge him so I sent him away." This is a reference to Dex, a previous participant of the Saints who turned protection for Ultor turned terrorist in the Saints Row 2 DLC. He was expected to appear in Saints Row The Third however exactly what overlooked since "Novices to the series would not acknowledge the character and they didn't wish to alienate them".

PowerVR OpenRL Ray Tracing
PowerVR OpenRL™ is a flexible low level API, available for download as an SDK for accelerating ray tracing in both graphics and non-graphics (e.g., physics) applications. It is being integrated by a rapidly growing number of developers in rendering applications for a wide range of markets, including film and video, games, architecture, and industrial design.
This cross-OS, cross-platform API is the only ray tracer that supports multiple graphics devices with optimal performance that is vendor agnostic. Like OpenGL, OpenRL hides the complexities of interfacing with different graphics devices by presenting a single, uniform interface.
A free perpetual license of OpenRL is available for integration, with either commercial or non-commercial applications.
OpenGL inspired programming model
This standards based API will already be familiar to OpenGL programmers. Many features of OpenGL systems are also present in the OpenRL SDK, including vertex buffer objects, frame buffer objects, vertex shaders, GLUT, etc.
Transparent acceleration structureAcceleration structures are data structures used in ray tracing to facilitate fast ray-geometry intersection testing. In OpenRL, acceleration structures are built and maintained transparently, behind the scenes, and this eliminates the need for your application to write any code to create or traverse them. This also allows for hardware acceleration of the acceleration structure assembly. OpenRL can also leverage the acceleration structure built in previous frames, to optimize the system performance in subsequent frames.
Runtime compilationOpenRL incorporates an optimizing compiler that compiles all shaders at runtime, producing low-level machine code targeted to the hardware configuration on which your application is running. This means that you don't need to care about what hardware you are targeting when you are programming with OpenRL. This also means that your application can modify shaders while running, and seamlessly compile them for use in the next frame. This opens up many possibilities for interactivity, by bringing ray tracing into the earliest stages of 3D content creation.
Developer toolsOpenRL comes bundled with everything you need to make great ray traced applications. The stats plotter is a tool for monitoring the statistics of a live running application. This helps the developer better diagnose and optimize their application. The OpenRL profiler allows the developer to examine hot spots within a scene by allowing the ray tree for any pixel to be explored graphically in real-time.

By Mickey Furfari
For the Times West Virginian
I want to share with readers of this column the contents of one of the numerous emails that were received in response to my opinion piece of last week.
The headline I posted on it was "Is WVU turmoil worst ever?" It pleased me that all who saw fit to comment and respond were in agreement with what I said.
One in particular was received from Dr. Paul Nesselroad of Morgantown, and he has granted me permission to reprint what he said in that email. It struck me as being filled with good, old-fashioned common sense.
First of all, though, I'd like to give a bit of background information on this legendary West Virginia University educator.
He has been retired since 1989 after spending 33 years as a professor in the WVU College of Agriculture.
Dr. Nesselroad, a WVU graduate, class of 1947, earned his doctorate with honors from Penn State in 1954. He served as chairman of the WVU Athletic Council and was on the panel in 1980 to approve the selection of Don Nehlen as head coach of the WVU football program.
He and Nehlen remain close friends.
Here is what Dr. Nesselroad emailed me in reference to my column of last week:
Your column for Thursday is right on the money. I have discontinued attending the games after 70 years. Being retired, I can't afford the ticket prices.
(WVU athletic director) Oliver Luck seems to think that to increase ticket prices will result in increased total revenue.
As a professional economist, it appears that he has forgotten an economic principle called "elasticity." Using this principle, after a certain point, an increase in price is offset by a decrease in quantity.
This results in a decrease in total revenue, not an increase. It may well be that is what has happened or will happen.
Simply stated, in cases like this a decrease in price is necessary to increase total revenue, not an increase.
This applies for luxury items, not necessity items like food. Athletic event attendance is a luxury, not a necessity. I think the problem will get worse, not better.
Best regards. — Paul Nesselroad.

I went back and re-read the thread, and realized I totally missed that you're probably the buyer, lol.
If you're buying it for revenue, I would still suggest the discounted cash flow model - and use a higher discount rate to account for the 'face' of the site.
As a buyer, my starting point for a discount rate would be 25-30%...

I know that a lot of people feel that AA is mandatory...
And at first I did insist on it, and he did agree to go...
However, he went to the AA proram in our area many many years ago, in his first M, by court order...
After he attended for many months, he went to the judge and pointed out the flaws in this particular program, the only one, in our area.
The judge reviewed our AA program, and changed his judgement! And stopped requiring AA here...THAT is how bad it is...
We live in a small, isolated area, and this is the only program available. After discussing it, I understood why he chooses not to go there. I am sure some people here get support from it, but IMO, and in the opinion of my very wise IC/MC, my FWHs healing really lies in his heart, and growing our relationship.
He has so much pain hidden beneath his tough exterior.
I can see that, and maintain compassion, without enabling.
It truly is a slow, and sometimes agonizing process, waiting for him to come out of his shell...
But he peaks his head out every once in a while, and when he doesn't get smacked down, he feels more comfortable talking, and sharing.
Part of that is him understanding that I am real, and not some illisory wife that fits the profile...
I believe that his very first understanding that life can be very different than what he imagined is on d-day...
When I didn't just say FU and walk out on his ass.
For my H, the alcoholism was an escape from a painful reality...a reality that no matter what he did, he would never find happiness, because in his mind, he was a worthless POS.
I think that he is realizing that happiness is not something you find...
It is something that comes from within, and it is a choice.
The simple fact that I have stood by him through the very worst has changed him.
He told me the other day that he thought the biggest problem I have was meeting him, and that it all went downhill from there.
I told him I have learned a great deal being in a relationship with him.
And that what he needs is a safe place to heal.
I thought I had graduated from SI. WW/X knocked me off the unilateral reconciliation fence two years ago when OM moved in with her and our kids before my side of the bed even cooled during our "trial" separation.
I tried to enjoy the single life, but loneliness -- WW & I were together for 22 years + I had been a devoted father/primary cargiver for 8 years -- and zero self-esteem -- due to being replaced so quickly and effortlessly -- gave me a more poignant taste of madness than freedom.
I began to date. First, set-ups through family and friends. Next, I began to approach women on my own. I was always honest & up-front about the situation from which I had just emerged and my intentions not to pursue a serious relationship. Several women tried their best to change my mind, but I could muster nothing better than "thank you" in response to their "I'm falling in love with you"s.
Then I met Cindy, and my mind not only changed but lept back to life! The circumstances of our meeting and subsequent coutship rival even the cleverest of romantic comedies. She/Us made me glad I had a second life and energized me to make it everything the first was not. Though Cindy's road to Us contrasted with mine -- she had divorced 14 years previously, had two older children, and had met and attempted ill-fated relationships Mr. Wrong after Mr. Wrong -- we seemed to be on the same page for just about everything. I shocked the world by proposing within months, and she couldn't set our wedding date fast enough.
Our marriage was story-book quality, and I still smile at every memory from our honeymoon.
Fast-forward 1 year and 2 months later. A period filled with her losing 2 jobs and growing disatisfaction with the present one. A period filled with frequent, though not constant, flurries of her drinking to the point of turning into another diametrically opposite person, a woman whom she claims no knowledge of after but one with whom I dread the next encounter. A period of my finances plumiting as I carried the burden of household expenses (including mortgage) and ever-escalating dinners out (wine always being the steepest item on checks) while she attended to her pre-marriage debts.
Fast-forward to last night. After a recent bout of zero intimacy and frequent visits from that "other" Cindy, I initiate a state-of-our-marriage talk. She announces that * marriage with me had not turned out as she expected * she is not sure she knows how to have a relationship * she is finding life with me smothering and annoying * she cannot get past her feelings that I am not over XW & that she knows how to press my emotional buttons & does so repeatedly * she does not believe in counseling
All this despite her admission that I make every effort to express my devotion to her and make her feel loved and wanted.
She responded indignantly when I asked her to be open & honest if and when another person compromised our marriage. I believe she is not "stepping out" -- much more so than when my XW actually did. Still, everything feels and sounds disturbingly familiar.
Whether it's infidelity or not, I get the same "I've already decided to check out" vibe, and it hurts like hell. Whatever happens, I hope to recover more quickly this time; I'm an SI veteran after all.
Still, I really do love Cindy and want to make a life with her. Am I already banging my head against a brick wall, though?
Isn't it strange how we keep running into the same relationship issues over and over?
My relationship with FWH is much like you described with her...
Why do I keep repeating this cycle?
I think that the change, regardless of who my partner is, needs to be a change in me...
no advice, just an, I hear you...
I read your original post to this thread, and your observations of and insights into your husband mirror my wife extactly.
I grew up with an alcoholic father, as did Cindy, and I use the pain of those years to keep from going down the same path. Cindy, on the other hand -- particularly the "other" Cindy -- expects me to simply accept (at times even embrace) that she is her father's daughter, and therefore must also succumb to the disease. We really don't talk about it when she is sober -- she deems it as me lecturing. So often when she is drunk she talks about needing the esacpe.
I am what I am.
A true statement...
But unfortunately he applied it in a way that accepted his evil-side as the winner...like the one you describe...
We all have darkness in us, and it is okay to accept that...like by accepting you have addictive tendancies that can control your every move IF you allow it to sneak back in under the radar...
You can accept that there is darkness...and you can choose that darkness as a way to define and live by the light.
That it called free will -
Made of both darkness and light...what do you want your life to reflect??? It is free will, and when FWH was in the bottle, and the fucking around, he denied that he had it...free will.
When he came out of denial, that very first d-day...before I found out about the others...he said:
I knew I should quit drinking...I knew I should quit, and I tried, but it was half-assed...I should have tried harder, I knew it and I just didn't. And now I have ended up here, hurting you...in hell...I will never walk that path again...never. I saw I was going down, and I just let myself. I know that this has hurt you and it will keep hurting you and I am so sorry. But if you hadn't found out...if it hadn't come to this...I would have kept going...and it would have killed me.
All of this crap happening...this mess I have made...I am so so sorry and I will do what it takes to prove it to you...
But I can't be sorry that you found out...because you finding out saved my life.
He hasn't had a drink since then.
[This message edited by healingtree at 1:11 PM, June 20th (Friday)]
I understand the anger towards the drunk. I remember times when I would see that look in his eyes, you know the one...when the man you married has disappeared and suddenly you are confronted with this stranger who is becoming all too familiar.
I look at that drunk, that stranger, for what it is...a demon that haunted, and still probably haunts, my H...one that took over and came out and abused me and my family, not physically but verbally just by BEING there...
I hated that switch I called him on it He had at first the illusion that he was in control And then when he realized he wasnt - it was too late that demon owned him because he cheated with some woman who was just simply there.
I don't believe that demons come from hell either...they come from pain and seperation from self, and they have the ability to take any one of us over that is weakened by lack of feeling a loving connection.
Humanity is what creates these demons, and humanity is what can overcome them.
I don't see this stranger as a part of my fwhs "authentic self" because it was something learned after he was born, through pain.
However, we are all born with the potential to bring badness and harm into the world.
I guess I can love the stranger as a true expression of my Hs state of loss/being lost...and be glad it came into our lives in the flesh because we can now acknowledge its existance and fight it together...
It can go two ways...
HE can face his demons and I can support his healing
Or he can choose not to face his demons and they will hit me head on, again.
We all have potential for healthy and unhealthy behavior...it is recognizing the free will we have in our choices that is the defining moment.

WH or STBX - I haven't decided yet - is an alcoholic.
This is new - learned less than a month ago about his A.
He insists each day I have a new issue.
Not really
If he sees, e-mails or speaks to his OW - it's over.
If he has another drink - it's over.
If he gets "too busy" to make it the the MC next Wednesday - it's over.
and there is one thing that he is right about - I have a problem with his drinking.
If I went to Hogwarts, my Patronus would be my Big Sister - GWADW
Yeah, I wish he would call sober and want to R (with him doing AA, counselor and us MC) but he says he's DONE. It's not fun going from wife to drunk dial buddy He still won't tell me who recommended the addiction counselor which seems odd? I guess I have to work on myself and move forward. He's showing no signs of wanting to stop the D and work on things.
How did your H stop drinking? I will have to review this thread to see if you talk about that. Have a good one
[This message edited by Why?? at 5:02 PM, June 28th (Saturday)]
My fWW started drinking about a year prior to the A. She had been known to over indulge at parties before, but nothing really out of the ordinary. The heavy drinking started with a couple beers on the weekend.. then a six pack, then a twelve. The details of the A are in my profile, but the OM was a co-worker 'drinking buddy'.
She now buys a twelve pack every night, 18/24 on Friday/Saturday, sometime Sunday. She denies it, but it has had an effect on her work.
The crap hit the fan last night. I was at my computer, looking at a audio related BBS and she asked what I was doing. My response was, "Looking for Drug/alchohol rehab centers, locally."
Pissed her off big-time. She wouldn't speak to me and ended up sleeping on the sofa. I haven't spoke to her today.
It's been a year and a half since D-Day, and like others have said, the alcohol is as big, if not bigger, strain on the M than the A was.
funny how a littel bit of barley, hops and glass can ruin a marriage
Many of us crucify ourselves between two thieves - regret for the past and fear of the future. -foulton oursler
I did it. I finally did it. I kicked my alcoholic boyfriend out of the house on Friday, June 27th. Let me just say that that was one (if not the most) hardest things Ive ever done in my life. I have had to walk away from someone that I love to preserve my own sanity.
Im still reeling from the loss and my heart and soul are crushed. Im cynical and pretty much hating everything right now but I will get through this. I still cry at the drop of a hat and have this terrible empty feeling inside. Im seeing a therapist and have upped my meds to help get me over this hump.
Hes texted me once during this ordeal asking if there was anyway to fix this and I immediately texted him back with NO. Since then, there has been no contact whatsoever. Ive let all of our mutual friends know that I do NOT want to know or hear anything about him and so far, everyone has complied with my request.
Im so sick over this and still wish that we could have worked it out but I finally realized that he will NEVER change and I am wasting my life trying to fix someone that doesnt want to be fixed. I really thought he was the one if only he would have quit drinking and doing drugs. How crazy is that? If onlys are exhausting to me and I cant do it anymore.
But Im hurting and very distraught over our whole relationship. Thanks for letting me vent.
I'm still so very hurt and can't even think straight most of the time. I know that I will get over it but damned if it isn't hard for the time being. I hate him right now but I also love him too. I just want to get to that sweet sweet feeling of total indifference.
She seemed awful quiet/reserved all evening - then bought O'Doul's non alcohol instead of the typical (as in every day) 12 pack of Miller Lite.
I don't know if the three events (dr,/ quiet/no alcohol) are related but I presume so. I wonder what he said?
I'm glad she wasn't drinking BUT it was an awkward evening. I went to bed early just to avoid the awkwardness of it all.

Every spring, China's cities are plunged into chaos as 130 million migrant workers journey to their home villages for the New Year's holiday. This mass exodus is the world's largest human migration, an epic spectacle that reveals a country tragically caught between its rural past and industrial future. Working over several years in classic verité style, Chinese-Canadian filmmaker Lixin Fan (with the producers of the award-winning hit documentary UP THE YANGTZE) travels with one couple who have embarked on this annual trek for almost two decades. Like so many of China's rural poor, Zhang Changhua and Chen Suqin left behind their two infant children for grueling factory jobs. Their daughter Qin, now a restless and rebellious teenager, both bitterly resents their absence and longs for her own freedom away from school, much to the utter devastation of her parents. Emotionally engaging and starkly beautiful, LAST TRAIN HOME's intimate observation of one fractured family sheds light on the human cost of China's ascendance as an economic superpower.

Samsung Galaxy S III for T-Mobile: impressions and benchmarks
We've spent some time with a handful of variants of the Samsung Galaxy S III, from the international version to those sold by Sprint and AT&T. Now we've had a chance to test out the version available to T-Mobile customers, a $279.99 phone (with a two-year contract) that is going head-to-head with HTC's One S and, well, not much else. The T-Mobile competition isn't exactly steep, but luckily for potential upgraders there's an awful lot to like about Samsung's latest flagship device.
We initially reviewed the international version of the Galaxy S III, and found that despite somewhat lackluster build quality it's an excellent handset. Samsung's focus with the device was clearly on software, and it shows: from S Voice to the scaled-back TouchWiz, this handset runs Android 4.0 as well as any we've tested. There are some imperfections (we're not totally sold on the Nature UX), and we still prefer a stock Android experience like you'll find on the Galaxy Nexus, but the Galaxy S III is a very good device.
It laps the T-Mobile competition
It's also a very similar device across countries and carriers. Samsung is selling the device as the Galaxy S III everywhere, and the only significant change in the US variants is that the phone is powered by a 1.5GHz dual-core Snapdragon S4 processor instead of the Exynos inside the international GS III. The quad-core Exynos remains the fastest mobile processor we've tested yet, but the S4 isn't far behind — it powers plenty of high-end phones, and handles the Galaxy S III with aplomb. T-Mobile's device also has 2GB of RAM, which makes multitasking feel smoother than ever.
Quadrant | Vellamo | GLB 2.1 Egypt (720p) | GLB 2.1 Egypt (1080p) | AnTuTu | |
Galaxy S III (T-Mobile) | 4,880 | 2,206 | 56fps | 28fps | 6,389 |
Galaxy S III (AT&T) | 5,039 | 2,352 | 56fps | 28fps | 6,746 |
Galaxy S III (Sprint) | 4,525 | 2,167 | 55fps | 28fps | 6,420 |
Galaxy S III (international) | 5,283 | 2,008 | 101fps | 59fps | 10,568 |
HTC One X | 4,430 | 1,614 | 65fps | 32fps | 11,322 |
HTC One S | 5,141 | 2,420 | 57fps | 29fps | 7,107 |
Galaxy Nexus | 2,002 | 1,065 | 28fps | 14fps | 6,079 |
T-Mobile added a bit of bloatware to the device — basically a given with US carriers — but it's not as heaping a portion as we're used to. A few carrier apps come preloaded, like Access T-Mobile and T-Mobile TV. Even added to Samsung's apps and services like ChatON, Game Hub, and AllShare, that's not a bad list, and many of the apps can be hidden or uninstalled.
Call quality was excellent, and so was reception. As for data speeds? Samsung told us the phone would be launching on "the fastest LTE and HSPA networks," the latter of which includes T-Mobile. Speeds weren't quite at LTE levels, but they were still impressive: we saw download speeds average about 9.5Mbps, and uploading speeds at about 1.3Mbps.
The T-Mobile GS III's slight dip in speed comes with a very nice upside: longer battery life. On the Verge Battery Test, which cycles through a series of 100 websites and high-res images with the screen's brightness set at 65 percent, the Galaxy S III lasted six hours and 50 minutes. That's almost 50 percent longer than the AT&T variant, which has a super-fast LTE connection that seriously gulps power. In more practical use, I easily got a full day of life from the Galaxy S III, and without any Netflix streaming or heavy gaming a day and a half was totally feasible.
T-Mobile users can buy the Galaxy S III in Marble White or Pebble Blue, and this was the first time we've been able to test out the Pebble Blue version. There have been some supply issues related to some splotchy appearances underneath the back cover — we didn't experience those, but we're still partial to the white model. The three-toned transition from front to back isn't as sleek as the all-white body, and the brushed metal affectation doesn't work well on the plastic body. Marble White is simpler and more attractive.
It doesn't hurt that the T-Mobile competition isn't very strong
The Galaxy S III is an excellent phone, and it looks even better next to its competition on T-Mobile's store shelves. There's no iPhone to best its app ecosystem, no HTC One X to outshine its display; it's just the GS III and the HTC One S. The One S does have superior build quality, but if you're a T-Mobile customer looking for a new handset, the Galaxy S III is the one to beat.

Now I'm feelin' black and mild, headed cross town
Cause niggas the 1st to get celebrated
Rushin' to the block 'cause I want to get faded
Lookin' all wild 'cause I'm getting me hair braided
We heavy off into this game
True to the 1st just call me that pro slang

The 1st be the day for the dope man
Slangin' that cocaine fool, and I'm working late tonight
And all them fiends be lovin' them thugs
Cause I got them rocks for them pipes
Come come with them ease
I gotta get paid on the 1st, gotta blaze up my spliff
Get live with the Bone Thugs, Poetic Hustlers in the graveyard shift
On the 1st
[Chorus: Repeats]

Kerry Skarbakka's anxiety-provoking large format photographs depict figures falling from dreadful heights. These images, which document actual falls the artist has staged with the daring and skill of a Hollywood stuntman, signify the surrendering of control to external forces. As a result, feelings of helplessness yield to the more expansive sense of release and liberation.

Take a starlit tour of the Planetarium Projector Museum
Planetarium projectors are one of the most fascinating devices you never think of. People visit planetariums to take a trip through the cosmos. But according to one man, the projectors themselves are worthy of admiration -- and he has built a museum to prove it.
The Planetarium Projector Museum sits inside an unassuming building in Big Bear Lake, Calif. In a modified military parachute, owner and curator Owen Phairis displays his collection of more than 17 projectors, some of which were made as far back as the 1950s.… Read more
