Amcor upgrades on safety
At Amcor's NSW beverage can manufacturing plant, an innovative integrated safety control system helps fast-track a safety upgrade while simplifying operation and optimising efficiency.
Pat Reynolds
High-throughput manufacturing processes that produce millions of units per day often rely on sophisticated process equipment and control systems to help ensure uninterrupted production. In such high-volume manufacturing applications, the effects of production stoppages can be crippling. In particular, unscheduled downtime due to emergency stoppages and shutdowns caused by breaches of safety systems can impact the company's bottom line in a matter of minutes.
One company that is leading the way in high-volume manufacturing is global packaging giant, Amcor. The company produces a range of innovative packaging solutions using a variety of plastics, cardboards, glass and metals.
A significant proportion of Amcor's Australasian operation is devoted to the manufacture of aluminum beverage cans. Across Australia and New Zealand alone, Amcor produces more than two billion beverage cans per year. Its manufacturing facility in Revesby, NSW, is equipped to produce nearly 2.5 million aluminum cans per day, and it's a vital element of the company's global packaging network.
As part of the company's ongoing commitment to safety, Amcor recently embarked on a safety upgrade at the Revesby facility. The safety upgrade included a transition to Allen-Bradley control systems, and the redesign and replacement of the facility's legacy safety control system architecture. As the upgrade was to be implemented without impacting production, Amcor enlisted the engineering expertise of local system integrator
IGR Consulting
) to obtain a fast-tracked safety control solution.
Amcor can
Amcor's Revesby facility employs the 'draw and wall iron' (DWI) process to manufacture its aluminum beverage cans. This production method involves forming shallow cups from aluminum sheet and stretching or drawing the cup's walls to form an open-ended can. A combination of fast-moving precision machinery and sophisticated control systems is used to consistently manufacture large quantities of product.
Rolled aluminum sheet is fed into a press, which cuts out discs and forms them into shallow cups using a 'blank and draw' die and 'draw horn.' These shallow cups are conveyed to one of the plant's 11 aluminum can bodymakers, where a can-shaped mechanical ram forces each individual shallow cup through a series of circular dies. This process elongates the cup's wall and presses a dome shape into one end of the cup, forming an open-ended can. The bodymaker's ram moves up and back at high speed, forming up to 250 cans/min. Each time the can-shaped ram retracts, the can is stripped off the ram head and dispatched into a bucket elevator that transports it to the trimming machines.
The trimming machine's roll-cutters trim the can wall to a pre-determined height, leaving a smooth edge. A separate device is used to roll the freshly-cut edge to form a flange, suitable to receive a lid or closure. The cans are then washed, etched, decorated, packed and shipped to various beverage manufactures.
Streamlining safety
Partially completed, the first stage of Amcor's site-wide safety and control upgrade is due for completion this month. Prior to the upgrade, the plant's 11 bodymakers and trimming machines were controlled using individual conventional PLCs. Each bodymaker/trimmer pair was equipped with its own PLC interlocked with a separate hard-wired safety control system. A second PLC was employed at each machine pair to accommodate high-speed control applications.
According to Amcor beverage cans engineering manager Chris Hilton, the safety upgrade provided Amcor with the opportunity to implement a more streamlined safety control solution. "Our legacy control system had served us well over the years, but we needed a more user-friendly system with advanced diagnostic and troubleshooting capabilities," he says. "Our production schedule didn't allow for a prolonged design and installation process, so we enlisted the services of control and automation specialists."
IGR Consulting developed a new integrated safety and standard control solution, founded on the innovative Allen-Bradley GuardLogix controller from
Rockwell Automation
Featuring two-processor safety architecture, the Allen-Bradley GuardLogix controller helps to provide integrated safety and conventional control within the one platform.
"This is a more elegant solution compared with the previous safety control architecture," says IGR Consulting project engineer, Karl Schiesser. "Both standard and safety control of each of the 11 bodymaker/trimmer pairs will now be managed by 11 individual GuardLogix controllers. The high speed of the Logix platform means that the second PLC is no longer required. This integrated control architecture helps provide Amcor with increased levels of safety functionality and enables easy system expansion."
Staying online
The GuardLogix controller is at the centre of Amcor's new integrated 'safety-plus-standard' control solution: a seamless network of controllers, Category 4-compliant DeviceNet Safety communications, and distributed I/O. EtherNet/IP connectivity provides interlocking between machines and links the GuardLogix controllers to the factory's SCADA system.
Several Allen-Bradley InView message displays, connected to the GuardLogix controllers via an RS232 serial port, provide operators with detailed system diagnostics and allow straightforward monitoring. "The InView message displays are configured to help provide detailed system diagnostics," says Hilton. "They allow on-site technicians to carry out fault analysis without having to directly access the GuardLogix program code."
Previously, access to Amcor's 11 bodymakers and trimmers was guarded by three separate hard-wired pneumatic guarding systems, each incorporating a series of relays and pneumatic switches. "If a guard was opened, the air was cut off and the pressure switch was tripped, activating the safety response," says Hilton. "On occasion, these pneumatic switches would fail in the open position, raising a 'false alarm' that caused the line to shut down."
The legacy pneumatic safety system was replaced with a range of safety switches and devices wired back to local I/O, connected to GuardLogix controllers via a DeviceNet Safety communications network. "With the GuardLogix integrated control system, troubleshooting false alarms and product jams is much easier," says Hilton. "Previously, when a safety alarm was activated and the line shut down, a technician would have to visually inspect each machine-guard in the group to locate the breach. Now, the GuardLogix controller allows us to immediately pinpoint the tripped switch. This means our response time is quicker and downtime is minimised."
Programming and installation
According to Schiesser, the combination of distributed I/O and the DeviceNet Safety network helped to improve site installation and wiring time. "Using an integrated control solution like GuardLogix means that Amcor doesn't have to duplicate its safety and standard inputs. This means less wiring and less I/O," he says. "Local machine-mounted I/O and the use of a single communications network for both standard and safety communications also helps minimise wiring and streamlines installation."
The completely integrated nature of GuardLogix also provided Amcor with programming advantages. "GuardLogix really is a step ahead of other systems. As the architecture is already set up, developing and expanding the system is uncomplicated," says Hilton. "We were able to develop both the standard and safety control system code concurrently. This was a real time saver."
GuardLogix uses RSLogix 5000 programming software and allows users to program and manage their safety control system using familiar standard control methods. "It actually provides us with real on-screen info—not a coded database hidden somewhere in systems like our previous PLCs," explains Hilton. "With standard and safety control using the same [RSLogix 5000] programming environment, system configuration and troubleshooting are straightforward. It's a piece of cake."
Early success
According to Hilton, the IGR Consulting team was a real key to the success of the project. "They were on hand to install and commission the first system and train our technicians," says Hilton. "This hands-on instruction has been invaluable, providing our on-site team with the necessary skills to successfully implement the remaining systems."
"We understood the importance of making this plant-wide control transition as seamless as possible," says Schiesser. "GuardLogix allowed us to simulate real-life control scenarios and view system architectures, without making any physical connections. This made it an efficient way to train Amcor staff during system design, set-up, and commissioning."
Further system support is provided by Rockwell Automation in the form of TechConnect—Rockwell Automation's site-wide technical support for its hardware and software products. "Amcor is a TechConnect customer and considers this service an integral part of our system maintenance program," says Hilton.
Hilton envisages further applications for the GuardLogix solution. "Once again we'll be able to save time and resources by developing conventional and safety control concurrently, using the GuardLogix controller," he says.
By implementing a transition to the Logix control platform, Amcor was able to leverage the benefits of Rockwell Automation's GuardLogix controller, while fast-tracking a safety upgrade at its Revesby manufacturing facility. Instead of interrupting or slowing production, the transition has yielded optimised operational safety and efficiency.

Re-Energizing Fayette County, Pennsylvania, With Better Buildings
As a rural community of approximately 150,000 with a history of coal mining, Fayette County in southwestern Pennsylvania has long had strong ties to the energy industry. The emergence and rise of mining brought significant wealth to the county's residents for decades, but the decline of the coal mines in the 1950s brought economic hardship.
With $4.1 million in seed funding from the U.S. Department of Energy's Better Buildings Neighborhood Program, Fayette County is focused on making significant energy improvements and creating jobs for under- and unemployed workers. Bringing together a broad array of partners, the Fayette County Better Buildings Initiative is taking a multi-pronged approach to transform an established weatherization program into a whole-home energy efficiency program and demonstrate a replicable and scalable strategy for energy efficiency.
Background: Modernizing Homes, Patch by Patch
Driving Demand: Covering All the Bases
Workforce Development: Developing a Clean Energy Workforce
Financing: Investing In Fayette's Future
Modernizing Homes, Patch by Patch
Most of the houses in Fayette County were built either before 1900 or in the early 20th century, with a large number built by mining companies to house their workers. Many have been passed down through the generations with few, if any, energy efficiency upgrades, resulting in homes that are cold and drafty.
Historically, there has been a long list of properties waiting for energy efficiency and weatherization upgrades in Fayette County. In the past, applicants had to wait up to 7 years before weatherization projects were completed, but the Fayette County Better Buildings Initiative is significantly improving the process. The program is focused primarily on increasing residential housing upgrades, providing energy evaluations, rebates, and improvements such as insulation and appliance replacements.
Communities known as "Coal Patches" are one legacy the coal mining companies left behind. These are settlements that companies built in the early 1900s through the early 1920s to house miners and their families. Because the houses in each "patch" are virtually identical, they serve as an ideal model of the difference energy efficiency upgrades can make. As part of its program, the Fayette County's Better Buildings Initiative will identify one patch as a pilot for the program, using it to test ideas and gather data.
Covering All the Bases
Fayette is educating users about the electricity they consume to help demonstrate the need for upgrades. The county is using all forms of marketing to reach residents and business owners, including social media, promotional materials (postcards and brochures), how-to videos, public workshops, public service announcements, email campaigns, and traditional public relations strategies.
Fayette County ran radio and television spots that were broadcast throughout the summer of 2011, including during Pittsburgh Pirates home baseball games, to motivate a broader audience and increase the impact of the energy efficiency pitch. In spring 2012, Fayette County ran two television spots on two different cable companies covering the entire county.
Developing a Clean Energy Workforce
The decline of the mining industry brought with it a rise in unemployment in the Fayette region. Job opportunities have been few and far between, with many residents either under- or unemployed. As of October 2009, the unemployment rate was 10.6%—slightly higher than the national average—and it was still at 10% a year later, even though rates in other regions across the country improved. 1, 2
Fayette County is working on reversing this trend. Through its Better Buildings initiative, the county is leveraging existing partners to usher in a new generation of clean energy workers. The Private Industry Council (PIC) of Westmoreland/Fayette is funding a program to train building contractors to become Building Performance Institute (BPI) certified at no cost to students. The training includes certification preparation for contractors to be BPI inspectors, as well as training in sales and business development to augment their technical skills. PIC is also offering a building envelope training program to graduates of the BPI certification courses.
PIC will deliver tools to help BPI inspectors start new businesses, including grants and low-interest loans to purchase computer software and professional equipment to find insulation in walls, gauge temperature, and conduct blower door tests. With training and certification in the energy efficiency industry, county residents have the opportunity to get not just any job, but stable and well-paying careers.
Investing In Fayette's Future
To help fund energy efficiency improvements, the county and its partners created a tiered financing/incentive program based on income. Each tier has its own incentives. Low income homeowners can access a full package of energy efficiency improvements at no cost. Typically, the improvements include insulation (attic, basement, crawl space, or possibly walls); furnace replacement; air sealing throughout the home; and high-efficiency refrigerator replacement. Homeowners can save $400 on their annual energy bills in just the first year with a typical energy reduction of 20-27%.
Middle income homeowners can qualify for a free home energy evaluation performed by a BPI certified inspector, plus rebates on energy improvements in the home. Other residents may qualify for rebates that cover the costs of an energy evaluation plus implementation of energy efficiency measures that achieve at least 15% energy savings.
Additionally, Fayette is offering an affordable financing program that can provide loans of up to $5,000 at interest rates as low as 0%.

'Grudge Match' Could Pit Rocky Balboa vs. Jake La MottaCasting Couch By Nathan Adams on May 31, 2012 | Be the First To Comment
In the grand tradition of Freddy vs. Jason and Aliens vs. Predator comes Grudge Match, which pits boxing legends Rocky Balboa and Jake La Motta against each other in an epic battle to the death. Or, probably not. But Grudge Match is an upcoming boxing comedy coming from Tommy Boy and Anger Management director Peter Segal. It tells the story of two retired boxers who step into the ring one last time in order to finally settle an old score. It's kind of like that episode of The Cosby Show where Combustible Huxtable races Tailwind Turner one final time, but with punching instead of running. The real exciting news about this project isn't that it's a boxing comedy about old dudes, though, it's the names that are being looked at to play the two leads. The Wrap is reporting that Sylvester Stallone and Robert De Niro are currently in negotiations. These two are, of course, the two stars of probably the greatest boxing movies ever made, Rocky and Raging Bull, so there's a whole meta component to their casting that adds to the fact that watching Stallone and De Niro clown around together already sounds kind of fun in a dumb way.
Over/Under: 'Raging Bull' vs 'Diggstown'Features By Nathan Adams on October 11, 2011 | Comments (6)
Sitting at a formidable and weighty 98% on Rotten Tomatoes is legendary director Martin Scorsese's Raging Bull, a biopic of Jake LaMotta, a 40s era boxer who was nicknamed "The Raging Bull" because of his short fuse and aggressive style in the ring. Michael Ritchie isn't a legendary director. Despite the fact that he's made movies like The Bad News Bears and Fletch, I've never even heard someone bring his name up in a conversation. And his attempt at a boxing movie, 1992's Diggstown, is sitting at a paltry 54% on Rotten Tomatoes, derided and then forgotten by a cruel world unwilling to look past the ridiculous shirt and tie combinations James Woods wears in the film. This injustice will not stand.

Dental care can be difficult to come by in areas that have been hard hit by natural disasters. For people living in these areas, free clinics that provide dental care can be an important way for them to care for their teeth and receive emergency services.The Iowa Dental Association recently announced that it would hold a free clinic in Cedar Rapids, which was hit by extensive flooding two years ago. Richard Hettinger, chairman of the event, told Radio Iowa that many people were unable to visit a dentist following the flooding and dental health in the area suffered. He said that initiatives like this were needed to help people who are still trying to recover after the devastating flooding."The main thing that seems to happen at these events is that everybody smiles," he told the news source. "The patients are smiling because they are being taken care of and the people providing the care are smiling because they get to do what they love for people who truly need it."In addition to free clinics like this, there are also many discount dental plans available for patients who cannot afford dental insurance.For more information on discount dental plans call 1-888-632-5353.

Baiga tribe
Baiga is a tribe found in Madhya Pradesh (population 250,000), Uttar Pradesh, Chhattisgarh and Jharkhand states of India. The largest number of Baigas is found in Baiga-chuk in Mandla district and Balaghat district of Madhya Pradesh. They have sub-castes – Bijhwar, Narotia, Bharotiya, Nahar, Rai Bhaina, and Kadh Bhaina. Their population as of Census 2001/2011 was 390,000.
A 2010 study by the Anthropological Survey of India and the Texas-based Southwest Foundation for Biomedical Research identified seven genomes from 26 isolated "relic tribes" (sic) from the Indian mainland, Baiga being one of them, which share "two synonymous polymorphisms with the M42 haplogroup, which is specific to Australian Aborigines." These were specific mtDNA mutations that are shared exclusively by Australian aborigines and these Indian tribes, and no other known human groupings.[1]
Practice of shifting cultivation[edit]
The Baiga tribes practice shifting cultivation in forest areas. They say they never ploughed the Earth, because it would be like scratching the breast of their Mother, and how could they possibly ask Mother to produce food from the same patch of earth time and time again – she would have become weakened. That's why Baigas used to lived a semi-nomadic life, and practiced Bewar cultivation (slash & burn) – out of respect, not aggression. Until fairly recently the Baigas practiced 'dahiya' cultivation, that is, slash and burn. Thousands of square miles of sal forests have been clean destroyed by them in the progress of their dahiya cultivation, the ground being afterwards occupied by dense scrub of low sal species springing from the stumps. The Baigas are courageous woodsman and hunters.[2]Baigas of Central India were reluctant to do work for others. The Baigas saw themselves as people of the forest, who could only live on the produce of the forest. It was below the dignity of a Baiga to become a labourer.
The Baiga culture[edit]
The popular Baiga tribe in Madhya Pradesh is known for its unique culture. They do not interact even with other tribals like the Gonds, believe in a hand-to-mouth existence, and do not access education, eat outside their community, or associate with others. After a death in the family, the Baigas just leave the house and build another. They are totally dependent on the jungle, they do not engage in tendu patta collection, which is a major livelihood provider in Madhya Pradesh.
Tattooing tradition amongst Baigas[edit]
One of the tribes for whom tattooing is an integral part of their lifestyle is the Baiga tribe. This tribe inhabits the dense hilly forests in the eastern part of the Satpuras, in Shahdol, Bilaspur, Rajnandgaon, Mandla, and Balaghat districts. The Baigas are of Dravidian stock and are one of eight prime tribes of M.P.[3]
It is believed that this tribe is an offshoot of the Bhuiya tribe of Chhota Nagpur. A distinguishing feature of the Baiga tribe is that their women are famous for sporting tattoos of various kinds on almost all parts of their body. The women who work as tattooing artists belong to the Ojha, Badni and Dewar tribes of M.P., and are called Godharins. They are extremely knowledgeable about the different types of tattoos preferred by various tribes. Their mothers traditionally pass on this knowledge to them. Tattooing amongst the tribals commences with the approach of winter and continues until summer.[3]
The demographic characteristics[edit]
P. H. REDDY and B. MODELL of Department of Obestrics and Gynaecology, University College London Medical School, London, UK have studied the demographic characteristics of the Baiga tribe, one of the most vulnerable of the aboriginal tribal groups of Central India. It is found that the Baiga population has grown steadily since the first anthropological study of the tribe in the 1930s. Age at menarche, age at marriage, breast-feeding, and time interval between marriage and first conception are natural. There are more females than males. Sub-tribe endogamy is common; consanguineous marriage is favoured (34% of marriages are between first cousins) and marital distance is low (mean 7·1 km). Though the mean menarcheal age is high (15·2 years), mean age at first marriage is low (16·6 years), giving a long reproductive period.[4]
It is believed that the ancestors of the Baigas spoke an Austroasiatic language, however no trace of it is left now.[5] Some Baigas (specifically those from the Mandla district) have mentioned "Baigani" as their mother tongue in the past: Baigani is now recognized as a variety of Chhattisgarhi influenced by Gondi and Western Hindi.[6] Most Baigas communicate with outsiders in Hindi, and some of them also know Gondi or Marathi depending on the region they live in.
Baiga foods[edit]
The baiga takes coarse food and shows no extravagance in this aspect. They eat coarse grain, kodo, and kutki, drink pej, eat little flour and are normally content with what little that they get. One of the prime foods is pej that can be made from grounding macca or from the water left from boiling rice. Local people gave testimony that this food is much better and healthier than many other food that they eat. Also, beyond doubt they eat several items from the forest that includes primarily Chirota Bhaji, Gular leaves such as Chirota, chinch, chakora, sarroota, peepal etc. They also eat BirarKand, Kadukand and other rhizomes. Mushroom is also a delicacy. Numerous fruits such as mango, char, jamun, tendu are also eaten. They hunt as well, primarily fish and small mammals.[7]

Customer Reviews
- First Pair of AC Swimwear Review by jordb22
Quality Fit Price Value
I ordered the large because that was all that was available and I figured it'd be safe to order one size larger anyways. I tried putting them on and they are so incredibly tight. Feels like I'm trying to pack everything into an extra small. But once they are on they hug your hips and ass beautifully. Wish the pouch was a little different but overall please with my first pair of AC Swimwear.

Nigeria has the largest economy in Africa, at more than US$500 billion, and ranks 23rd in the world. A recent re-evaluation of Nigeria's true economic size doubled the previous estimate, and brought it well ahead of South Africa, which is a member (unlike Nigeria) of the G20 club for political as well as economic reasons. Nigeria's economy can be said to be quite diverse from one point of view, but heavily dependent on oil and gas at the same time. Oil and natural gas account for about 15% of Nigera's overall economy, but traditionally represent more than 90% of the country's exports and as...

Critics say Steelman ad misleading on fighting illegal hiring practices

CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- An assistant district attorney general for the 19th Judicial District has been charged with domestic assault.
Chris Wayne Dotson was arrested Tuesday night following an incident that happened over the weekend.
A log from a 911 call on Saturday showed that Dotson's stepdaughter called police claiming he was hitting her mother. The mother told the dispatcher she was OK, but was told officers may still respond.
The 45-year-old Dotson, who prosecutes drunken driving cases, was released on $500 bond and is scheduled to appear in court on Tuesday.

December 22, 2014
BOSTON (AP) -- Rep. Michael Capuano of Massachusetts says he's taken out nomination papers and will announce next week whether he'll join the race to succeed Edward Kennedy in the U.S. Senate.
The six-term Democratic congressman said Tuesday that of any candidates mentioned so far, he most closely mirrors Kennedy's positions on issues of war and peace.
Capuano is the second member of Congress to draw nomination papers. Rep. Stephen Lynch did so last week.
Democratic Reps. Edward J. Markey and John Tierney are also considering the race. Former Congressman Martin Meehan said Tuesday he will not run.
Attorney General Martha Coakley was the first declared Democratic candidate to replace Kennedy, who died Aug. 25 of brain cancer.

1200 D Winter Turnout Blanket
For Sale on eBay
Manufacturer: TackRUs
Model: 1200 D Winter Turnout Blanket
Category: Horsewear
Purchase: Purchased 3 of these blankets off of Ebay from TackRUs for 3 Thoroughbreds with a cost of $65 each including shipping.
Likes: We liked the color choices and the fact that the blankets had a 400gm weight, were waterproof with no back seam, had a tail flap, two front buckles, two belly straps and two removable, adjustable elastic leg straps. They were affordable and in stock.
Dislikes: We disliked the neck opening as it is quite large and the blankets rest more on the back of the withers than on the neck. The buckles in the front seem to be of substandard strength. Also, there is no velcro in the front to keep the straps secure.
Quality: The blankets are made nicely with good quality materials. They are indeed waterproof. The hardware is strong except for the two front buckles. The sizing seems to be appropriate to our measurements.
Summary: Two of the blankets have held up well, however on one blanket, shortly after purchase, the two front buckles just snapped. This one in particular puzzled me as it was on our most calm Thoroughbred. The buckles look good but are not the best. The neck sizing seems to be off as we have two well built TB's and one typical, young TB in stature...none of the blankets fit well in the neck. We had to purchase shoulder guards to prevent rubbing and a good amount of hair loss. I will say that TackRUs stood behind their product as they reimbursed me the money to replace the buckles. However, I do not think I will be purchasing these blankets again due to the neck sizing.

I need to do some tests that involve the output of our application builds. Normally configuration management does the builds. They use their own build machine which is under their control. I want to run a modified build that goes against our branch in source code control. I have my own virtual machine. So I decided to configure it to perform my own builds. This turned out to be a lot harder than I thought it would. I am still fighting with the configuration to get the build script to run to completion.
One requirement for the build machine is to have a certain version of WinZip, along with some configuration files used by WinZip. Luckily I had all the files needed for this version of WinZip. The build scripts assume that the correct version of WinZip is located at C:\Program Files\Winzip. I thought this would be no problem. I decided to move the existing copy of WinZip from there to another place. Then I would put the version needed by the build there. Even this simple task was hard to accomplish.
The system administrators of my workstation much have set it up to ensure that the version of WinZip that they expect is always located at C:\Program Files\WinZip. I tried to delete the files there. They were locked. I was able to temporarily rename the WinZip folder. However when I tried to copy my new version of WinZip to the right location, a WinZip install process immediately kicked off, restoring the wrong version of WinZip to that location.
This was very frustrating. I did not even know what secret process was protecting the installed version of WinZip. I found that I was able to cancel the automatic reinstall process each time it ran. Then I could sneak in the version that I wanted. However at every turn I had to keep canceling this job. This was very frustrating.
My next problem is that Ant is looking for a "tools.jar" file. It is missing. I think I have successfully installed Ant. This must be some Java install from Sun Microsystems. I tried installing the latest Sun JRE. I also tried to install the JDK. Any still keeps complaining about this. I am a Windows C++ developer. The build scripts were written by Java guys who have long since left the project. It looks like I am going to have to dig into this problem. I need my build.

I confessed to my BF and now I regret it.
Find a Conversation
|Wed, 09-26-2012 - 5:34pm
I couldn't deny cheating on my BF any longer. Last Thursday night I finally told him that yes I had cheated on him but I continued to lie and was adamant that it only happened once, a one night stand. I wish it was just a one night stand and not an affair. My BF asked questions and I had to answer. Who was this guy? Do I know him? Where did you meet him? What happened between you guys? Oh man....
I told him where I met him. I told him how it happened. According to my BF he had a dream and in his dream I was standing outside of the establishment with the other guy and I was asking him for a ride to my vehicle. That is EXACTLY how it went down. He said he had this dream months ago and that he knew that I had cheated a long time ago. Great. He wanted to know where this guy lived. He guessed right around the corner from the establishment. I wasn't going to say yes but that is the case. I swore up and down that it was a one time deal and I have never seen the other guy. Right....The last time I saw him was 3 weeks ago. I am not sure I will hear from him again since I don't text him and when I left his place I told him I was mad at him. He got into a relationship but him and the girl recently broke it off but they still keep in touch. She wanted to get married and have kids and he doesn't want that. I told him to go get sex from her. He said he doesn't want to. Of course he doesn't! She'll think they are back together again.
I feel like such a bitch for what I did. My BF texted me the other night "F$%^ you and your cheating a#$" He broke up with me. Said he was humiliated and he wanted nothing to do with me. He told me to go to the other guy. I told him that I did not want to be with the other guy. Because really I don't want to be with him. I have no idea what I was thinking going back to the other guy after our initial hook up.
I regret confessing to my BF but a part of me feels better about doing so. I have ruined all the trust he had in me and I HATE that. I never wanted my BF to find out what I did but it came out of my drunken mouth! I told my BF that the guilt and anger was eating me up. I did tell him that the last time I saw the guy was about 3 weeks ago now. He came into our neighborhood on the way to a job. I told my BF that seeing him set me off. That is why I started picking fights with him because I was angry with myself.
My BF has since then taken back saying that it is over between us. He loves me. I know that I do love him and I do not wish to leave him for another man. What I am extremely confused about is that I know if the other guy texts me I more than likely will still reply and knowing me I probably will go see him. For some unknown reason I can not just ignore his texts. I need to do that. He has done the same with me hence the reason as to why I no longer text him anymore.
I don't understand why a grown ass man still wants to be in FWB or FB relationships especially with a girl that is in a relationship...?
For now I have to be on my best behavior and somehow regain my BFs trust. I feel like crap.
|Wed, 09-26-2012 - 6:36pm
What an emotionally draining time this has been for you! I am really impressed that your BF has come back and wants to work through this. I don't want to be harsh, but if you know in your heart that you can't be faithful to him, you owe it to him to be honest about that, or to figure out what would need to change, whether it's within the R itself or within you alone. Why do you regret confessing?
|Wed, 09-26-2012 - 7:02pm
You did the right and moral thing to confess. If you don't want to leave BF to go with the other guy, then don't, but don't try to have your BF back because you love each other or whatever...it will never be like it was between you and BF... move on....
|Wed, 09-26-2012 - 9:50pm
I have the same, a loving adoring h who gives me whatever I want and I love him more than anything. I don't even like ap, yet when we are together it's amazing!! He is a total jerk who ignores me all the time. Sometimes something happens between two people. They are drawn to each other. I wish it could be explained.
Things will never be the same if you remain with your boyfriend. For one, their is something your r lacks that made you look elsewhere. Secondly, he doesn't trust you. Lack of trust sucks. Take it from me. I am always question. After d day, I had to take pics of my sister or something in a room to prove I was where I said. I called it lockdown. I couldn't do anything. It is still kind of like that but after 3 years I work around it. I need freedom. But I constantly get accused of talking to ap. it still hurts him and I only have a little trust back. What I am tryin to say is, be prepared. And think if you really want to ride out your pain and his. It's a tough journey.

A beautiful blue sky, crisp fresh air and a blanket of snow invited me outside. With a smile on my face I eagerly pulled my boots on, snapped on my skis and glided around the lake with my dog. All I could hear was the crunching of snow under my skis...it was so awesome!
Another wonderful day in the neighborhood!

Media, Structures, and Power is a collection of the scholarly writing of Canada's leading communication and media studies scholar, Robert E. Babe. Spanning almost four decades of scholarship, the volume reflects the breadth of Babe's work, from media and economics to communications history and political economy.
Babe famously characterized Canadian scholars' distinctive contribution to knowledge as uniquely historical, holistic, and dialectical. The essays in Media, Structures, and Power reflect this particular strength. With a clarity of vision, Babe critiques mainstream economics, Canadian government policy, and postmodernist thought in social science. Containing introductions and contributions by other prominent scholars, this volume situates Babe's work within contemporary scholarship and underscores the extent to which he is one of Canada's most prescient thinkers. His interdisciplinary analyses will remain timely and influential well into the twenty-first century.

Fox Kansas KSAS-TV - Search Results
Police search for suspects after late night shooting
Wichita, KS UPDATE: Police reported that a 24-year-old woman was shot in the head as she walked with her husband. She was pronounced dead at a residence in the 3500 block of E. Roseberry. SWAT teams did not locate any suspects in the house where they had a standoff.
Several shots were fired and police have been collecting evidence at the scene. Police say the shots did not come from a vehicle. They are asking for any witnesses to come forward with information on the case.
Police said the husband is not a suspect.
Police were called to the shooting in the 3500 block of E. Roseberry at around 11:45 Tuesday night.
Upon their arrival they found a woman deceased from gunshot wounds.
Officers immediately began searching for a suspect or suspects to find out what happened.
A SWAT team was called to the scene a few hours later to search a home two doors down from where the shooting occurred.
They eventually used tear gas to attempt to get potential suspects to leave the home. When police entered the home a short time later they found no one inside.
Investigators are now processing the scene of the shooting.
