need urgent advice before Thanksgiving
I have no one in real life who i can ask that (too involved) and I believe that people here are the most reasonable and have the most common sense. help me here...rather urgent since it is thanksgiving related.
I am very upset wiht my SO and tell me if this is reasonable. Originally his DD21 was supossed to come home for thanksgiving but then all of a sudden she has to drive across the country to sick grandma and she has to drive BM's BF who is usually too drunk to drive (BM is already there). Nice.
Now SO is angry and as a result of that (which is somewhat typical-BM and DDs do somehting and I get punished) refuses to go wiht me to my family for Thanksgiving.
he would rather sit home alone than go wiht me. My family always does thanksgiving at my aunts mainly because they have the biggest house in the family and my cousins have young children.
He refuses to go wiht me, his rationale: I am uncomfortable in your aunt's house, I don't know them enough, my holiday is already ruined by my ex, my DD is not home but has to drive drunk BF blah blah blah.
let me tell you my family are the nicest, our family parties are the nicest, my aunt is welcoming and kind, and then of course my parents and brother are great wiht SO.
I am in a situation when i have to lie to my aunt because i won't be able to tell her the reason why SO not there, I will have to lie he is out of town. i am uncomfortable lying. To tell her that he doesn't want to come and would rather sulk by himself is embarassing.
Now, I can't explain enough here but seriously I feel that it is a symptom of a problem rather than a minor incident. i am there for his family always, treat them like kings and queens, buy them stuff and am exceptionally nice, my family treats SO like he is a king.
His actions exemplify for me lack of commitment, lack of selflessness (do it for me even if you don't like to go there), hung up on ex (why that many years after divorce he is still upset that ex makes his DDs do this or that, DDs are grown and make their own choices), still angry about ex's BF (TOM), and it all effects me.
I am embarassed to lie and go to thanksgiving alone, no one else is alone there but me. i mean of course i am with family, but I have been wiht SO for over 3 years. Long enough to have holidays together, don't you think?
I am considering ending a realtionship (not over thanksgiving incident but over what it is a symptom of). Tell me what you think?
i am so upset today. All he says: not a big deal. It is GF's aunt, not like it is your mother or a child. But that's where my whole family goes! It is my only aunt by the way and my two cousins are my only cosuins. we have no one else!
And then another thing. Since i have met met him he always says that his ex ruined every holiday party and gathering (she is crazy I witnessed it myself) so he is trying to avoid holiday gatherings because it gets ruined. But in my family it doesn't get ruined. So why can't he start new traditions and do not avoid things that reminds of his marriage disaster. Why do i have to suffer? i and my family are mistreated here. It is just wrong. I mean it is OK if he would go with his family or visit his kids, but he doesn't!
Tell me what are your thoughts. thank you
(hope i conveyed the message that what this incident means to me and that there is absolutelly nothing wrong with my aunt or anyone in my family-they are all classy and behave appropriatelly)
You know this hits home for me on so many levels.
Esp this part:
"His actions exemplify for me lack of commitment, lack of selflessness (do it for me even if you don't like to go there), hung up on ex (why that many years after divorce he is still upset that ex makes his DDs do this or that, DDs are grown and make their own choices), still angry about ex's BF (TOM), and it all effects me."
I think you are right on the money. Do you really want to be in my position in 10 yr.s? you know my story, that's all I have to say, except((Hugs)). And I hope you do go to your family and tell them the real reason you are there alone, if they ask and have a wonderful holiday with your family. that is what it's about after all.
I'm sorry, finedreams, and yeah, I think SO is being unreasonable, but it's not what I think that matters here, it's how you feel about it all.
This is important to you and he seems unwilling to acknowledge that. I doubt it has anything at all to actually do with your family. Seems he does not want to go and is coming up with excuses to justify himself to himself. Frankly if me, I would not make up excuses for him though. Go, have a good time and enjoy your family, leave him home to sulk.
I suppose he'd still bulk if you asked him to consider coming for a litle while, long enough to enjoy the meal, socialize a bit and than excuse himself while you stay and enjoy your day? Have you discussed with him how his attitude towards one simple afternoon with your family upsets and disappoints you? Does he know you feel like you should lie for him so not to embarass yourself.
Lots of time people do things that they don't really want to do or that they are not overly comfortable for the duration of the event because it is part of being in and sharing a relationship with a partner. I imagine he can rest assured that there's lots of men (and women) doing things/going places Thanksgiving that they'd really rather not be doing/going, but they do it for their partner/spouse and they make the nest of it.
Maybe it is time to take a look at your relationship, decide if this relationship is really what you want, but in the mean time, don't let him ruin the day for you. Go to your aunt's and enjoy your family.
I understand feeling embarassed by him to your family, but really, you shouldn't be. YOU didn't do anything. The most I would say to family is "Sorry SO couldn't be here, he had some family issues" along with the "look" (you know, where you make it clear that no more questions is needed lol) But that will only work if your family isn't the overly nosy type, so you knows what works best.
As far as breaking up, I think thats a call you have to make FD. For me, this would probably be a deal breaker. I think there is something not quite right that he can't celebrate a holiday with you regardless of his children at this point. Yes, I'm sure that it hurts him but he has had time to get used to this, it happens in some form every year and holiday! Also, being stuck on a past relationship has always given me the heebie jeebies. I'm right there with you when you say you think it's a symptom of something. For me, I would want to know what that something is before writing everything off.
Also, imo if a Mom/Dad are still having problems (significant) co-parenting/communicating when a new boyfriend/girlfriend comes along -- its not likely to change for a while and it isnt something I would personally want to sit on the sidelines and watch. It's not only disrespectful to the boyfriend/girlfriend (by dating without wrapping up baggage) I would personally lose respect for that person and it sounds like that is where you are it as well. Feeling embarassment for his actions, not a very romantic feeling.
(((HUGS))) I agree with the others. SO is being unreasonable and inconsiderate of your feelings. This is something that is understandably important to you and he is blatantly disregarding that.
I imagine he can rest assured that there's lots of men (and women) doing things/going places Thanksgiving that they'd really rather not be doing/going, but they do it for their partner/spouse and they make the nest of it."
(I think she means best, not nest. :) ) Anyway, I agree wholeheartedly with the above comment.
I'm sorry, FD. I think your SO should be at your side on Thanksgiving Day.
thanks everybody, you understood what I was saying...
i told him i am embarassed to lie but feel terrible to say the truth.
yes he knows how I feel about it because i cried this morning.
"I'm right there with you when you say you think it's a symptom of something. For me, I would want to know what that something is before writing everything off."-something is lack of commitment and connectendess to another person enough to ovecome discomfort. he is not willing to do that and for me it is hurtful.
No, coming for just a little while would not make any sense, it is 45 minutes drive and we go later in a day for dinner, so coming for a little while and leaving would not work.
This is so very true "Lots of time people do things that they don't really want to do or that they are not overly comfortable for the duration of the event because it is part of being in and sharing a relationship with a partner." And that what upsets me, he is not willing to do something what is important for me.
Him not willing to go to this one dinner just to make me and my family happy is wrong on every level. I feel that it is wrong.
Aww FD, I am so sorry! I can feel your hurt reading your posts. My concern is if he doesn't get this, and isn't willing to budge and do for you well, you will spend a longtime with this same sort of thing happening over and over. and it will just make you feel like you matter less and less.
You are correct, it is not right. Wish I could give you a big hug.
KKNY might be onto something about the depression. Might be worth trying to get him to look into it.
Also,I forgot to add it before...but I would be most ticked off that he was trying to blame my Aunt for not wanting to come, rather than being self aware enough to realize this is his issue.
Hi Fd,
My family is not as you describe your family to be. And yet, my DH says if I want to go, he will go to support me.
Don't lie. Tell the truth. He's burnt out on the holidays. Then go and have a good time.
I'm not going to my family's dinner this year. I don't feel good when I do. So I'm staying home. Traffic is my excuse.
It is a big deal to you. Family is family, regardless if first, second, third cousin. It's how it feels that counts.
Is your family mistreated by him not going? I don't think so. Are you mistreated by him not being willing to do something for you? That's the question. Is it this holiday that's bugging you or is this a pattern?
Personally, I would never make my DH endure my family and I've told him so. He didn't marry them he married me. And he, in turn, says he'd go to support me. Sooooooo.... It's the feeling of support/love that really counts for me, and I'd imagine it's the same for you.
"I am in a situation when i have to lie to my aunt because i won't be able to tell her the reason why SO not there, I will have to lie he is out of town."
No you don't! You just say his Ex's family caused a big mess and SO is 'not feeling the holiday spirit' and didn't want to drag down anyone else's spirits.
"To tell her that he doesn't want to come and would rather sulk by himself is embarassing."
I get that -- But it's kind of the truth, isn't it? So you're put in the difficult position of either covering for it, enabling it, excusing it. Or admitting it.
Ahhh -- I wrote that before reading all of the others' responses, and they've already said it --
This is, very simply, something he should be willing to do for you -- even if he doesn't want to -- just because it's important to you.
His actions are telling you that to him, his discomfort at spending one afternoon with your family is more important to him than your feelings about going alone. Since you've said your family is nice, kind and polite, that puts things in a rather bleak perspective.
Sounds like you've already come to that conclusion though.
FD - I'm so sorry you're going through this! I can totally empathize with you in this situation.
Maime said "It will never change, get out before you are typing my DH instead of my SO."
I don't agree. My DH was just like FD's SO for the first 4+ years we dated. He even went so far one year to actually ask to have his daughter (she was supposed to be with BM) on New Years Eve simply because he didn't want to go out with a particular group of friends.
We took a break and during that time he realized relationships are about giving, too, instead of always taking.
There was a long time that DH wouldn't go with me to DS's baseball games because he was uncomfortable being around X. Now he knows that I (and DS) are more important than the uncomfortablness.
A lot of husbands feel like they don't have to do things their wives like/want to do. They grumble about it and make things miserable enough so their wives won't WANT them to go. Maybe some women are like this, too, but I haven't met any. Most women I know would jump through rings of fire to spend any time with their husbands. Most women I know do the things their husbands want them to do with them just grateful for any of their husband's attention. NASCAR, football games, sports bars, happy hours with work colleagues, THEIR family events, etc....
Your SO may love you and may really want to be with you, but you've enabeled his self-centeredness this long and he knows if he acts this way you'll smooth things over for him. He knows your embarassment and expects you to make him look good to your family because you wouldn't want it to reflect badly on you.
Maybe you don't need to break up just yet. Maybe just quit covering for him. Quit making it easy for him to bow out.
thanks again, yeap the issue of depression came up on several occassions. But if he does not do much about depression, I cannot do much either.
well even if I quit covering, the issue is still there. the issue of him not wanting to do something to make me happy, by somehting i don't mean buying diamonds LOL but simply going to a dinner with me.
"Is it this holiday that's bugging you or is this a pattern?" silverswood it is a pattern. Him focusing on negatives (that most of the time involves BM and DDs doing somehting wrong).
This is nothing to do with him enduring my family, there is nothing to endure. There is a lot of ridiculous behavior to endure in some of his extended family, yet i participate. it is him not wanting to do somehting what he does not want to do just to make someone else happy. that's the problem.
FD - I spent years going to family Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners without my DH because he had his head up his butt. I didn't sweat going to the family dinners alone. If they asked about DH I would just tell them the truth, that DH didn't feel like coming. No embarassment to me.
DH finally understood that it was truly important to me for him to be at those few yearly occasions. We mix it up between my family and his, so there is a balance and not a monopoly. DH now goes to my family's dinners and actually seems to enjoy himself! There are times that I truly don't feel like hanging out with his family either, but I do it for him and usually end up having a really great time!
Sounds like you have already made up your mind. There is a lot of good advice in these postings and you still end up sounding as if there is no hope.
You need to walk away, if only for a time. SO needs to decide what is important to him.
Go and have an enjoyable Thanksgiving with your family.
Tahnk you for your advice. I am not sure what you mean poppinggray. i made up my mind about nothing, otherwise i wouldn't be still with him and wouldn't be asking. I don't know if there is hope. I am pretty upset because it is not the first time.
One year he agreed to go to my family but then in the middle of the dinner he said my DDs are calling on my cell, they are coming for dessert right now we have to leave. I suggested they open the door (they have a code) and wait for us, also knowing from past expereinces they won't show up. he inisted. i had to leave too because we drove in his car. We rushed. When we got home of course DDs weren't there and they never showed up till next day noon. i left my family to do what, sit and watched him being mad about DDs? It is a pattern.
This year he'd rather sulk alone. last year he went to odler DD out of town and dragged younger DD who didn't want to go. DD21 ruined their trip by sulking the whole time. also DD28 ended up spending little time wiht dad even though he flew ina different state to spend holiday with her. SO came home mad and miserable. who suffered? me of course. i am tired of this. i pay for all this.
I am a positive person. this drags me down.
I agree with poppingrays, my DH has been the same way. Go to your family gathering, DON'T Lie or make up an excuse. Just say "he didn't want to come." It's really not on you that he is being selfish.
Like poppingrays, my DH sometimes comes, sometimes doesn't. This year he said he would, then changed his mind. That made me mad and embarrassed at first but I've already told the fam that that's just how he is. HOWEVER, he has spent 2 days and big bucks making seafood gumbo that I'm hauling to them so they shouldn't miss him too much. I plan to enjoy myself without him, you should do the same.
Hi FD, everyone has posted lots of good ideas...:) I think KKNY's idea of the depression is a very good one, your SO does sound that way. You could take him to his family doctor and check into it, you can also take online "tests", such as this one.. http://www.depression.about.com/cs/diagnosis/l/bldepscreenquiz.htm There are lots of sites if you just google "depression test" and they aren't a perfect diagnosis, but if your SO takes one, it might at least show him if he is indeed depressed and then he might at least choose to get some help,if he is depressed. He also sounds like he is still allowing his DD's and his ex to manipulate him terribly and he sounds like a big time enabler. He is "enabling" his kids and his ex to ruin his (and Your!) holiday! Sounds like he could use a therapist to help him get thru this, as he is letting them run and ruin his life for him. In turn, you help him with the kids, because you love him and you are a good person, but you get "swept" into the mess.
I really hope you go to your family party and have a good time and as my dear old Mum says "Let him stew!!" Sometimes just by letting him sit there and be miserable and by not asking him anymore to come, maybe he will actually think about how his behaviour is affecting you and your relationship together. I would even go so far as to tell him when you leave to go to the party: "think about how your behaviour is affecting other people,in particular me." Then give him a smile and a hug and a wave and a "see you,I'm off to have a great time!!" If all else fails, tell him your cousin is bringing a newly divorced guy who is apparently heartbroken but dashingly handsome and smart funny, etc...a doctor...LOL!!
Sorry you're dealing with SO acting like a big baby, FD. There's nothing worse than a grown man sulking! (Well, maybe a few things a worse, but it's right up there)
A ways up in the thread there was a post about that even if you don't cover for him, the issue is still there.
I think there might be two sides to that...
If you cover for him, you enable him to sit at home like a grouch and feel good about it.
If you don't cover for him, he'll still sit at home like a grouch, but maybe he'll realize that having your whole family know he's stewing at home makes him seem like a bit of a jack@ss and he'll clean up his act.
I don't know your SO, but that worked on an ex of mine.

Complex questions about cyber defense and cyberattacks could fall victim to political gamesmanship
Cybersecurity appears to be on the verge of losing its status as one of the few areas of national security to remain relatively free of partisan bickering.
Because the topic has never been colored neatly red or blue, debates about computer defense have focused largely on substantive rather than political differences, enabling policy discussions to continue despite the changing political fortunes of the political parties.
But now more than ever, the public is becoming aware of the dangers of computer attacks. As solely technology topics, they were once the province of geeks and policy wonks inside the Beltway. But they now make national headlines.
Given the highly politicized environment in Washington, cybersecurity will inevitably become a political lightning rod.
"Politicians have long rallied voters around the national security flagpole," said John Bumgarner, research director of security technology at the U.S. Cyber Consequences Unit (US-CCU), an independent, nonprofit research institute. "Recent world events, such as cyber espionage against Google, now have politicians scrambling to add another banner emblazoned with the word 'cyberattacks' to this flagpole."
A case in point: Rep. Michele Bachmann, a conservative Minnesota Republican known for making controversial statements, recently evoked computer security in an argument against President Barack Obama's policy for nuclear weapons.
"If in fact there is a nation who is compliant with all of the rules ahead of time and they've complied with the United Nations on nuclear proliferation, if they fire against the United States a biological weapon, a chemical weapon or maybe a cyberattack, well, then, we aren't going to be firing back with nuclear weapons," Bachmann said at a campaign rally, according to ABC News. "Doesn't that make us all feel safe?"
"No!" the crowd shouted back.
Bachmann made headlines by linking nuclear weapons to cybersecurity and rallied her constituent base with her comments about nuclear deterrence.
However, the decision to include cyber weapons in her argument suggests that the cyber threat has risen to a new political threshold. Bachmann apparently thought concern over cyberattacks resonated enough with her constituency that voters wouldn't dismiss the notion of lobbing a nuclear weapon to respond to a computer attack — or at least using it for deterrence.
Not everyone takes such an extreme position on cybersecurity issues, but the trend is toward hawkish positions. The most outspoken people tend to advocate for building up cyber defenses by raising the specter of a massive cyberattack on the nation's critical infrastructure.
"It's a one-sided debate — the only side is electronic Pearl Harbor," said John Pike, director of GlobalSecurity.org, which tracks information and debates about national security issues. "You're going to have all kinds of security professionals who might have something to say on the subject, but they're not in the habit of going on television and debating members of Congress who are running for president."
The problem is that cybersecurity is a complex topic, tangled up in larger questions about national security, international law and diplomacy.
Because of that complexity, the United States is still struggling to formulate some basic cybersecurity policies. For example, if U.S. systems come under attack, what is the appropriate form of response: cyber or bombs? And what is the government's policy about conducting its own offensive cyberattacks?
Lt. Gen. Keith Alexander, the administration's pick to lead the Cyber Command, recognized the complexity of cybersecurity operations, particularly as they relate to traditional defense policies and strategies.
"I'd certainly agree that cyber warfare has unique and important differences from classic deterrence theory and escalation control," Alexander said in written responses to senators' questions about U.S. military cyber operations. "Experts, both inside and outside government, as well as within the Department of Defense and intelligence communities, have widely differing views of these dynamics, as should be expected. A consensus has yet to emerge, either on how to characterize the strategic 'instability' or on what to do."
Of course, the political climate could change even more dramatically if the country's systems suffer a major attack. Politicians could find themselves struggling to avoid the "weak on security" or "soft on terrorism" labels that have been part of most security policy debates since 2001.
US-CCU's Bumgarner said talk of launching a nuclear strike in response to a devastating cyberattack amounted to political grandstanding. "Once this grandstanding has subsided, these politicians need to debate what our national response strategy for a major cyber incident would really entail."

November 29, 2014 - I got mine as a free offer, but I'm back to buy some now. I got both a scarlet and a peacock, and both are beautiful! For 100% silk, they are a great value!! The floral design is gorgeous and impeccable! The peacock scarf is an iridescent blue-green on one side and blue on the other side. The floral design is blue on the blue-green side and green on the blue side. The tassels are peacock green. The scarlet scarf is more of a crimson or burgundy on one side and scarlet on the other, with contrasting floral design. The tassels are a deep burgundy-brown. The pictures just do not do these beautiful scarves justice!!
February 15, 2014 - Got the peacock colored one for my mom for xmas. She loves it! It's blueish on one side and greenish on the other.
January 9, 2014 - Not good value. Very short and flimsy. Although it smells, I am afraid to wash it. Colors and pattern are nice though.
November 20, 2013 - very good scarfs..make awesome gifts!

Phoenix Suns
Phoenix Suns deal Sebastian Telfair to Toronto
The wheeling and dealing continued for the Phoenix Suns Thursday, as they traded point guard Sebastian Telfair to the Toronto Raptors for center Hamed Haddadi and a 2nd round pick.
Telfair signed with the Suns prior to the lockout-shortened 2011-12 season. In two seasons in Phoenix, the former high school phenom played in 106 games, averaging 6.1 points and 2.4 assists per game.
Haddadi, 27, is averaging 1.2 points and 1.2 rebounds in just under seven minutes per game for the Raptors.
Telfair's playing time had dwindled lately as the Suns have gone with more of a youth movement which pushed rookie Kendall Marshall higher on the depth chart. Telfair hasn't gotten off interim head coach Lindsey Hunter's bench in eight of the last 11 contests.
He's also spent time with Portland, Boston, Minnesota, the Los Angeles Clippers and Cleveland in his eight-year career.

Linked here is a detailed quantitative analysis of Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. (WMT). Below are some highlights from the above linked analysis:
Company Description: Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. is the largest retailer in North America and operates a chain of discount department stores, wholesale clubs, and combination discount stores and supermarkets.
Fair Value: In calculating fair value, I consider the NPV MMA Differential Fair Value along with these four calculations of fair value, see page 2 of the linked PDF for a detailed description:
1. Avg. High Yield Price
2. 20-Year DCF Price
3. Avg. P/E Price
4. Graham Number
WMT is trading at a discount to 1.) and 2.) above. The stock is trading at a 24.3% discount to its calculated fair value of $70.69. WMT earned a Star in this section since it is trading at a fair value.
Dividend Analytical Data: In this section there are three possible Stars and three key metrics, see page 2 of the linked PDF for a detailed description:
1. Free Cash Flow Payout
2. Debt To Total Capital
3. Key Metrics
4. Dividend Growth Rate
5. Years of Div. Growth
6. Rolling 4-yr Div. > 15%
WMT earned three Stars in this section for 1.), 2.) and 3.) above. A Star was earned since the Free Cash Flow payout ratio was less than 60% and there were no negative Free Cash Flows over the last 10 years. The stock earned a Star as a result of its most recent Debt to Total Capital being less than 45%. WMT earned a Star for having an acceptable score in at least two of the four Key Metrics measured. The company has paid a cash dividend to shareholders every year since 1973 and has increased its dividend payments for 37 consecutive years.
Dividend Income vs. MMA: Why would you assume the equity risk and invest in a dividend stock if you could earn a better return in a much less risky money market account (MMA)? This section compares the earning ability of this stock with a high yield MMA. Two items are considered in this section, see page 2 of the linked PDF for a detailed description:
1. NPV MMA Diff.
2. Years to > MMA
WMT earned a Star in this section for its NPV MMA Diff. of the $3,195. This amount is in excess of the $500 target I look for in a stock that has increased dividends as long as WMT has. If WMT grows its dividend at 13.3% per year, it will take 4 years to equal a MMA yielding an estimated 20-year average rate of 3.9%. WMT earned a check for the Key Metric 'Years to >MMA' since its 4 years is less than the 5 year target.
Memberships and Peers: WMT is a member of the S&P 500, a Dividend Aristocrat and a member of the Broad Dividend Achievers™ Index and a Dividend Champion. The company's peer group includes: Costco Wholesale Corporation (COST) with a 1.1% yield, Target Corp. (TGT) with a 2.0% yield and PriceSmart Inc. (PSMT) with a 1.6% yield.
Conclusion: WMT earned one Star in the Fair Value section, earned three Stars in the Dividend Analytical Data section and earned one Star in the Dividend Income vs. MMA section for a total of five Stars. This quantitatively ranks WMT as a 5 Star-Strong Buy.
Using my D4L-PreScreen.xls model, I determined the share price could increase to $100.04 before WMT's NPV MMA Differential decreased to the $500 minimum that I look for in a stock with 37 years of consecutive dividend increases. At that price the stock would yield 1.46%.
Resetting the D4L-PreScreen.xls model and solving for the dividend growth rate needed to generate the target $500 NPV MMA Differential, the calculated rate is 7.5%. This dividend growth rate is well below the 13.3% used in this analysis, thus providing no margin of safety. WMT has a risk rating of 1.50 which classifies it as a Low risk stock.
WMT enjoys dominant positions in most markets where it competes. The company continues to gain market share aided by a slow economic recovery that continues to see consumers choosing WMT over higher-cost competitors. Its unmatched scale leads to favorable terms on everything from the products it sells to store leases and distribution agreements. I plan to continue adding to my position as my allocation allows and while the stock is trading below my fair value price of $70.69.

Our special coverage of the closest race for years
Explore the personal stories of Syrian refugees in Lebanon
12 Jul 2010 20:19 GMT
Sarkozy said he would ask parliament to set up a commission to look at creating guidelines "to avoid all forms of conflict of interest in the future".
The president also said he was determined to carry out unpopular plans to raise the retirement age to 62 from 60 and make people contribute longer for a full pension despite expected protests in September.
Properties raided
The president went on prime time television to try to restore battered confidence in his government just hours after police searched the home of Liliane Bettencourt, France's richest woman.
Bettencourt, the L'Oreal cosmetics heiress who is a close friend of Sarkozy, has been named in the donations scandal which has rocked the government and driven the president's approval ratings to a record low.
A former accountant for Bettencourt has told police that the billionairess and her late husband made illegal cash donations to conservative politicians for years, including for Sarkozy's 2007 election campaign.
During the interview, the president insisted France was not corrupt but there had been too many bad habits in politics, and he was determined to clean them up.
The searches of the properties of Bettencourt, 87, and Francois-Marie Banier, a society photographer and close friend of Bettencourt, came amid calls for the appointment of an independent magistrate to investigate the case which also involves alleged tax evasion.
Sarkozy rejected any suggestion that the public prosecutor in charge of the case, who is a personal friend of his, was not independent.
In all, police carried out seven raids on Monday, the public prosecutor's office said.
In a gesture of courtesy to the Bettencourt, the prosecutor's spokeswoman described the police action at her villa in the exclusive suburb of Neuilly as "a visit to take receipt of documents".
Allegations denied
Claire Thibout, the former bookkeeper, has accused Woerth of taking an illegal $200,000 cash donation from Bettencourt's wealth manager.
The minister and the wealth manager have both denied the allegation.
The finance ministry's tax inspectorate concluded in a report rushed out on Sunday that Woerth had not intervened in the tax affairs of the Bettencourts, or their wealth manager or friends during Woerth's previous role as budget minister which he left in March.
Woerth was treasurer of Sarkozy's campaign and remained UMP treasurer while serving as budget minister in charge of tax matters, and his wife worked for Bettencourt's wealth manager, prompting accusations of conflicts of interest.
In the television interview, Sarkozy tried to refocus public attention on the pension reform and the need for budget savings to bring down a public deficit of 8 per cent of gross domestic product and public debt of more than 80 per cent of GDP.
He reaffirmed that France would keep its promise to cut the deficit to 6 per cent of GDP next year and 3 per cent in 2013.
The funding scandal contributed to the government's loss of an ultra-safe parliamentary seat to the left in a by-election on Sunday.

Fishermen at Magdalena Bay sell some of their fish for between 5 and 8 pesos per kilo. By comparison, dirty plastic bottles fetch 9 or 10 pesos per kilo. This means that these fishermen are literally selling their fish for less than garbage, and to break even at that rate they need to catch and sell 800 kilos per day. To make money they need to do 1,000 kilos per day, and there is no way for a small boat to maintain quality at those volumes. This is the reverse alchemy that plagues Baja fishermen: they catch something that could be worth gold, but they're selling it for less than garbage."

propagating orchids
An orchid was given to me. It bloomed long and grew a new plant and bloomed again. Then the old stem dropped it's leaves and turned light brown and seemed to dry up. I was considering cutting off the dried up stem, but instead I gave the plant a fairly heavy dose of plant food (Miracle Grow). It suddenly shot up two new little shoots and the dried up stem suddenly pushed out two new little orchid plants with roots and all. I believe the fertilizer was the answer. Orchids grow on trees in the tropics and have a tap root that gets it's nourishment from the tree, Since it is not on a tree now it needs good regular plant food, I am wondering what I do with the two little plants on the dead stem? Do I leave them there and keep growing at that position? Do I cut them off and plant them in new pots?
That is normal behavior for an Orchid. Each Pseudobulb (the tuberous bulb like lower portion with leaves on top) will shoot out flowers once, then go dormant. The remaining back bulbs (those that have already flowered) will remain and actually help the orchid by retaining moisture and nutrients that can then be used by the active growing portion of the plant. Once the Pseudobulb has flowered, one or more new growths will form at the base and become the new active growths. There are several opinions on how many pseudobulbs you should have before dividing the plant, but each division should have at least 3-4 with at least one actively growing.
The most frequent cause of Orchid death is over watering. You should allow the growing medium to completely dry out between waterings. I usually let it go a few days bone dry before wattering, and then completely drench the plant. Since the roots typically are exposed to the elements, they have a special coating, called velamen, that not only protects the root but absorbs moisture so the root has more time to absorb it. When dry, the roots will look white, and when wet will become translucent and look green.
Not all orchids behave the same, so the above is kind of general.. but for your plant, I would suggest you leave the new growths alone to do their thing. After they flower, each one will shoot out another pseudobulb, which will flower, etc.. At some point, when it outgrows the container or your planting medium breaks down, divide the plant into two or more and give one to your mom :)

Visitors to the Menil Collection in Houston, Texas, last month were greeted by four shiny sculptures made from twisted bits of car bumpers and bonnets, metal filing cabinets and various pieces of found metal in the museum's main foyer. The works, including the 14-part, 21ft-long American Tableau, 1984, were among a group of 12 sculptures by the American artist John Chamberlain (1927-2011) in the collection to undergo a 12-month comprehensive study and conservation treatment funded by a grant from the Bank of America's Art Conservation Project. The month-long installation of the pieces was part of the museum's 25th anniversary celebrations. In 1987, an exhibition of Chamberlain's sculptures from the 1970s and 80s inaugurated the museum, which holds one of the most significant collections of his work.
Chamberlain, who is best known for his metal sculptures, was renowned for his ability to transform industrial materials into works of art. The main focus of the project was the stabilisation of these large-scale sculptures. "In many ways, these pieces are their own worst enemies," says the museum's chief conservator, Brad Epley, who led the project. "There is no good place to grab them. You just have to hold them where you can, and this often puts stress on the welds, which are the minimal points of attachment." He says the pieces had suffered "a certain amount of wear and tear" over the years. Chamberlain used welds as well as mechanical fasteners such as screws, nuts and bolts to secure his collages. "His working process was about putting these elements together and not permanently keeping them together. Welds and fasteners were quickly [applied] to confirm a desired aesthetic arrangement," Epley says. Conservators were tasked with tightening nuts and screws and making minor adjustments to stabilise the works. The team was also faced with paint issues, including lifting, separating and loss. In many of the pieces, there was not a great level of adhesion between paint layers because Chamberlain did not meticulously prepare the surfaces before applying artists' paints over the metal's existing industrial coatings. In some cases, it was difficult for conservators to determine whether the damage to the paint occurred before or after Chamberlain assembled the works. "We gave priority to artists' paints over industrial ones because we know he definitely applied these in his studio," Epley says, adding that Chamberlain used a wide variety of paints.One of the biggest revelations came from thoroughly cleaning the sculptures to remove decades of grime—not an easy task, given the number of nooks and crannies in each piece. "These are juicy, rich pieces… bright colours and chrome, side by side. It was great to reacquaint ourselves with the surfaces that Chamberlain must have seen originally," Epley says. Another surprise was the number of things that remained hidden from view because of the way Chamberlain had twisted the metal pieces around each other; for example, a 1960s New York Giants bumper sticker was tucked inside one piece.According to Epley, the team was able to gather valuable information about Chamberlain's methods and techniques. "The opportunity to work on a large sample of works at the same time means that we are able to contribute a systematic approach to treating Chamberlains to the conservation world," he says.

Time to Shear Sheep
14 comments:
What a sly rooster that is, and so gorgeous. These are great Rebecca; I also like the one with the newly-shorn mama and baby. That last shot is a pretty crazy pile o'sheep!ReplyDelete
STUNNNG! really! the cup, the green hat and that ROOSTER. wowReplyDelete
Rebecca - I gotta agree with the other comments - the ROOSTER(!) - was really stunning. But, of course, they are all really great photos, and I love the story they tell too :)ReplyDelete
Beautiful shots love it!ReplyDelete
I'm not sure it's a rooster but even if it's just a hen (What? JUST a hen?) I like the peeking-out pose.ReplyDelete
I love all your photos, they always tell a story. I wish I had a chance to visit such farmstead, I'll not stop clicking too. To bad there's none here.ReplyDelete
Super examples (and I was trying to fit the last one in until I read your proviso!). The cup has to be my favourite.ReplyDelete
Hope you are feeling better!
I agree with the others, great photos, but I just love that rooster!ReplyDelete
They are all good but the cup is my favourite I think. I know the feeling of having been sick for like forever... Me too ;) I had to resort to my archives.ReplyDelete
Love all these shots. I can also get the rule in my mind from your shots. I am sure you are always aware of it but from now on It will be part of my routine when appropriate.ReplyDelete
I like all of them and I have to disagree about the last one. I don't know what you wanted us to focus on but my eye naturally went to the upper left intersection: the hat. From there I followed the line of the shearer's right arm to the clippers and then noticed his left arm. You may not have intended to capture a shot that illustrated how difficult it is to shear a sheep, but you did. There's a technique to shearing a sheep without harming the animal. You've captured what beautifully and used the rule of 3rds to do so.ReplyDelete
Rebecca, you may have been feeling off colour but there's nothing off with your photos, they are as beautiful as ever. The rooster is terrific but my favourite is the little lamb keeping an eye on his mum.ReplyDelete
What a fun day that must have been. Picturesque stone farm buildings, little lambs, the shearing... Your photos turned out wonderfully.ReplyDelete
Rebecca, I love these photos. I think my favorite is of the paper maker and of course the little lamb with eye on mama.ReplyDelete

TV Trends in Bruceville, IN
Here are just a few nuggets of cable TV knowledge relevant to Bruceville. For starters, a third of Americans own four or more TVs and all but 3% of people still watch regularly broadcast TV. Because 72% of all TV viewers bundle cable with Internet, it only makes sense that 48% of them stream some content online. In Bruceville, that means there are 146 people with multiple televisions, 429 people watching scheduled programming, 318 bundling their cable services and 212 of those bundlers who stream TV online.

"Inconsistent narration but good story."
I thought this writer did a good job with introducing a twist in P/R. The narration at times was really good, then had trouble with changing pace to often, so the timing of humor and action seemed off. The thing that was a maddening distraction what the fact that the mysterious male hero started with a great russian accent, then mid conversation would have an english accent, then an American one. After a short time couldn't tell the difference between characters. The male characters personality really left a lot to be desired. He started with promise, then just fizzled out! Very distracting. Oh well...

2011 Acura TSX Sport Wagon 4dr Wagon w/Technology Package (2.4L 4cyl 5A)
I've owned this little wagon for over a year. I was pretty smitten at first, but like anything, living with it reveals faults.
I must have bad spatial recognition; it's smaller than I thought. Even our young kids find the rear seating confining. Luggage space is adequate. We've added a Thule box for extended trips. Which...
Brings down gas mileage to CUV territory because the little 4 cyl has to work extra hard. However, without the box we see 28 to 32mpg on the highway and 23 regularly in the city. Another gear would help, but the transmission shifts smoothly and when you want it.

2011 Acura TSX Sport Wagon 4dr Wagon (2.4L 4cyl 5A)
Have owned my wagon for a month now and love it.
Purchased a Demo for only 27k.
After pricing the BMW 3 series wagon and the Audi A4 equally equipped........10k+ difference, forget it.
For 10k they can have more horse power and all wheel drive (live in SoCal don't need it).
This engine is peppy enough and with the planned Icebox intake, power will be just fine.
Recently got 32mpg Hwy averaging 70 mph.
Sold my 2005 Mercedes E320 Wagon for this and its sooooo nice to have a transmission that shifts without hesitation.
Not as quiet and smooth as the Merc but a new Benz was 55k....enough said.

Maybe the most fun to drive wagon I have ever owned. Just
changed the oil with 6500 miles at the dealer. I think this wagon has plenty of power, just came back from a 1000 mile round trip from San Diego to San Francisco, fully loaded and got 30 mpg plus, driving on average 75 to 80 miles an hour. Brakes are well designed.
Front Seats are very comfortable, but passenger front seat
is lacking lumbar support.

I traded in my 2011 Honda Accord Coupe for this car after rescuing 2 dogs.
I could not get them into the coupe very easily, so I bought the TSX Sportwagon. Tighter handling than the Accord.
Smaller than the Accord - which is good.
I LOVE the handling.
Doesn't seem different from the sedan in ride and handling.
Bluetooth could be better. Perfect space and great drive!

We've had this car for a month and love it.
Good gas mileage and nice luxury features but you are paying for the name plate and lux features rather than the performance.
Ultimately, this is still the Euro Honda wagon with some upgrades.
It is a fuel-efficient, small engine alternative to the SUV.
As long as those facts are kept in mind and that is what you are after you will love it.
The biggest short-fall for us is that the back-seat is not designed for child seats (sad for a family car).
The buckle is recessed and the seat shape forces the booster right over the buckle making it impossible to use - seat belt extenders are required, and I am not sure what that means for safety.

I believe that Acura got it right when they came out with this outstanding wagon. I have this car now for a little over a month and it exceeds my expectations as to what a car means to me. I traded in my 2004 RAV4 which had the same amount of cargo space and about the same size engine. The Acura is quicker, handles much better and of course the design and luxury are noteworthy. I was surprised when receiving many favorable comments on my new car from strangers, such as "Now that is a beautiful looking wagon". I have not driven the car in winter yet, but I don't think that not having all wheel drive will make a big difference in my driving habits. The seats are very comfy with good visibility

I wanted to replace my Passat wagon with another wagon.
Test drove:
Subaru Outback, Toyota Venza,
Jetta wagon TDI & Tiguan, Honda Crosstour & CRV, Acura RDX.
I liked the TSX road feel, interior fit and finish, and cargo space compared to the competitors.
I'm hoping snow tires will make up for the lack of AWD.
Three months and 3,000 miles later, I am happy with my car.
It's a smooth, comfortable ride.
The Tech Package is fun and the stereo is excellent.
The mileage is very good and exceeds the EPA estimates, especially for highway driving.
Looking forward to Acura reliability.
If you want AWD and are not as concerned with fuel economy, try the RDX.
It's a fun drive.

I have had mine for a month now, just over 1000 miles. Bought it because I wanted a small "sport wagon" but wanted Japanese reliability.
I believe most pro reviews are pretty spot-on. It's nice, but could use more power or a sixth cog on the automatic. Paddle shifters are OK, but the standard auto seems tuned too much for fuel economy--Mazda's autos put it to shame. It also affects mileage, which is OK until you remember it's a 4-cylinder, then it's just ho-hum.
Great fit and finish, wonderful stereo, too many buttons.
If you want a high-quality, reliable luxo wagon, and can do without a V6 or AWD, I believe you'll like the TSX--But it could be a lot better with a 6-speed sport aut

I sold my 03' Toyota Tacoma Double Caband picked up my TSX Wagon at the end of March.
So far I'm very happy with it.
I never expected it to be a sports car, so I feel that it has decent power.
I'm really happy with the Gas mileage as it's easily 7-8mpg better than my truck.
Cargo capacity is a lot less than my truck, but that was a given.
I was still able to load a 4 burner gas grill (in box) from Lowes into the back cargo area as well as the gas tank and a few accessories.
The tech package is quite daunting, and I only know a handfull of voice commands, but the nav works great, power lift gate is very useful and the sound system sounds great.
So far, really happy with the car.

The trip is confirmed, we are conquering Europe!
Early last week Megan and I confirmed and booked our trip to Europe coming up in April. It was huge step, one I wasn't sure would ever happen last summer when I first started the planning of this trip. I spent lots of time searching the web for travel tips, travel services, booking agencies, recommendations and finally narrowed down an itinerary, travel dates and a budget around Christmas. We used the booking site Go-Today.com and ...

At a little after 7 PM, one of the hostesses in the area reminded us of the dress code and the time. So I left after a few more minutes and returned to my cabin to get ready for dinner. This was a formal night and although the dress code indicates jacket, tuxedo or dark suit and tie, almost all of the men wore tuxedos in keeping with the tradition ...
