DIY Invitations for Weddings and Events
Do-it-yourself (diy) wedding invitations are a great way to save money without sacrificing quality, by using our premium papers and unique embellishents for texture and dimension. We designed our invitations to be made easily using our premium invitation supplies. Easy instructions how to make invitations with illustrated step-by-step tutorials and videos plus free wedding invitation templates are available for your convenience.
Top 5 Reasons to DIY
- Uniqueness. Since only the overlay of a layered invitation must be printer friendly, a wider, more unique selection of background papers can be used including rich solids, handmade papers embedded with real petals, and shimmering metallics. Adorned with posh embellishments such as charms, feathers, leaves, crystal brads, lace wraps, cording, and fine paper sashes, these unique invitations will reflect the importance of your event and stand out from the ordinary invitation.
- Cost without sacrificing quality. DIY invitation kits using premium papers and embellishments run around $1.00-$1.50 each, a cost savings over typical invitations printed with mid-grade paper.
- Speed. Fast online ordering and delivery of blank supplies, meaning no waiting for proofs and printing.
- Customization. Individual invitations are easy to customize when printing yourself using different wording or alternate languages, adding rehearsal dinner and out of town guests information, a feature that is cost-prohibitive with custom printed invitations.
- Ease of Reordering. If you run out, you can quickly order and print invitations. Reprinting custom printed or engraved invitations is very expensive after the initial order.
How to Order DIY Wedding Invitations
Create your own unique design below by selecting your heavyweight background card color or deisgn, white or translucent printable overlay, embellishments and envelope from the options below. Tools, glue dots and vintage clip art are also available at the bottom of the page. Need inspiration? You can also select from our wedding invitation kits for easy ordering.
The final price will vary based on the components you have chosen below and will be calculated when added to the cart.

When a woman is trying to heal in the months after a miscarriage, the walk to the mail box can become a heart-pounding experience. More
I owe Florida an apology. We here in Texas are attempting to steal the "State you most wish would catch fire float off into the ocean" from them with news out of my new city of Dallas today about some hardcore weird shit that went down on Friday More
Figuring how to comfort someone who has just suffered a pregnancy loss is not an easy or comfortable thing to do. You may have the best, supportive intentions – but I have to warn you that if any of the following things come out of your mouth, you may want to duck. More
Having a miscarriage is a heartbreaking experience. I don't know any woman who takes it lightly. I do know several friends who have internalized the guilt after having miscarriage after miscarriage. From both real-life relationships and personal accounts I have read online, it seems like a woman that has experienced one or multiple miscarriages is always looking for the cause. Almost inevitably, she blames herself. More
I hate my sister-in-law for having another baby.
Let me backtrack a little – my sister-in-law is a drug addict. Before she had this baby, she had given birth to three more. Three kids that she didn't take care of properly. Three kids that she had taken away from her by child services because she was a terrible mother. Three kids that, no matter how much love she gave them, she could never fully be a mother to. More
Now what happens? She has to live for all eternity having her name associated with something awful that happened when she was a teenager? WHAT IF the fetus was a miscarriage and she just panicked and had some breakdown and tried to block it out before her shoplifting spree? What then? She gets extensive therapy and support in raising her child and maybe finishes school and tries to go to college and this comes up? We don't know if she did something to terminate her pregnancy. We don't know if it was all a horrible accident. But to be posting this kid's info all over the world for it to remain forever and ever is some terrible crime in itself. More
Since I've had my children, whenever I buy something plastic I search for the assurance that it is "BPA free." Although I refuse to buy anything for my child to eat off of that doesn't contain these words, I have never done the same for myself. As someone who experienced several miscarriages, it seems BPA is something I should have been trying to avoid. More
This year marks the first time that all three of my kids will be in school, and most excitingly, two of my kids are starting school for the first time. Having an empty house during the day for the first time is bittersweet for most parents, I'm guessing, but milestones like this have been extra difficult since I lost my first born son. More
What happened to Remee Lee might just be every pregnant woman's nightmare. After telling her boyfriend, John Welden, that she was pregnant, he was less than thrilled. He begged her to get an abortion, but she was adamant about keeping the baby. Reluctantly Weldon went along with it, until a few weeks into her pregnancy when he allegedly tricked her into taking Cytotec, causing her to miscarry. Most people who hear about this case are horrified, but some men's rights activists, see a deeper issue at hand, and for once I am inclined to agree. More
When it rains, it effing pours, especially for 44-year-old Po Leung who not only recently endured a miscarriage, but also the swift departure of her partner after an affair. To throw even more salt in the wound, Leung's partner allegedly left her for the fertility nurse who had been over-seeing the couple's path to conception — for three years. As a result, Leung is now wielding a hefty $400,000 lawsuit and believe me, you don't want to get in her way. More
I've spoken a lot about the many women who experience loss and don't talk about it. Well, if you have one of those women in your life, remember today what she has been through – and that this might not be the easiest day for her to endure. When you go through the pain of pregnancy loss – you have been a mother. You have lost a child, although most people won't treat you that way. More
We started to do the math. Literally, we began counting the months. If I didn't want to be about-to-burst, we'd need to wait until at least the summer to start trying. If I wanted to be pregnant but not too pregnant, we'd probably want to conceive around September. If I wanted that piña colada, pregnancy would have to be postponed until after the wedding. More
Pregnant Kim Kardashian has had, so far, a very stressful pregnancy. So much so that a doctor recently paid the reality starlet a visit and told her to not let her Kris Humphries divorce get to her. There's even further speculation that the mommy-to-be had a miscarriage scare. So leave it to the Kardashian Empire to parlay all that stress and panic into season eight of "Keeping Up With The Kardashians." More

It's my "wishful thinking" snowflake cap. Notice the ring of sweat.
Even though the whole fam is meeting up at the gym this evening, the weather was too nice not to lace up the running shoes and head outdoors.
Yes, I'm doing a two-a-day today.
And I decided to leave the iPod at home. Eeek, just me and my thoughts?
I jogged over to the park, two blocks away. (At least I think it was jogging -- when does it cross from a brisk walk to a jog? Is it the foot landing? The arm swinging?)
Once at the trail, I told myself I would walk a lap and jog a lap. Four times around that way. That deal with myself turned into "OK, just run when you get the urge."
"OK, run where there's no inclines."
"OK, run where there's shade."
So I walked and jogged, listening to the woofing at the dog park, the kids at recess and my own (not wheezing) breathing when I ran. After my four loops around the trail, I headed out of the park.
Then I hear, from my left-hand side: "I lost 30 pounds just by walking! Just keep walking!"
(This is what happens when you don't have headphones on.)
I turned to see an older man getting out of his car with his dog.
Do I get catcalls when I'm outside walking? Do I get a "hey baby"? (Believe me, that's not what I'm fishing for.)
Instead I get upraised thumbs, smiles, nods and tales of weight loss.
I don't know what to make of them.
Are they supposed to make me feel proud of myself? Encouraged?
Do these same people blurt out their weight loss to thin runners?
How do I acknowledge their comments? I know they all mean well but it feels a wee bit condescending. How do they know that I haven't lost 30 pounds? (I have, by the way, I'm just got more to lose.)
What if I was perfectly fine with my current weight? (I'm not, but let's just play "what if.")
So I jogged around backward and said "Thanks, I've lost 30 pounds, too!"
Is that how I was supposed to respond? I don't know.
Have you gotten any "you go, fat girl/guy" comments? What do you think of them?

An alleged photo of the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S4 hinted the imminent release date of the device.
A purported image of Samsung's much anticipated Samsung Galaxy S4 surfaced online that offered a clue of its release date. However, this piece of information is still unconfirmed since there are a lot of rumours on the release of the smartphone.
This is not the first time that we have seen reported leaked images of the Samsung Galaxy S4 but it is the first time that such an image has given us an idea about when the new model is set to be released.
Unlike previous leaks which reportedly show the phone in action or in very low quality this look like it is an official product image from Samsung. The image itself was found on Picasa and perhaps the most surprising thing is that the image was actually posted around one month ago but until this week nobody had really spotted it.
The picture itself shows a phone that is larger than the Galaxy S3 and incorporates a much slimmer bezel than we saw on last year's model. A home button is visible on the device, an aspect of the phone that was missing on previous reported photographs.
Perhaps the most intriguing aspect of this latest image is the date that is shown on the home screen of the handset. This date reads the 22nd April and quite often this gives us a clue about the potential release date of the phone.
The date aligns with one of the rumours surrounding the device. Reports claimed that the SG4 will have an April release date after a major product launch that would be held during March.
Some of the rumoured specifications for the Galaxy S4 include a 5-inch FHD Super AMOLED 1980 x 1080 Flexible Display, 4G LTE connectivity, a 13-megapixel camera, 2-megapixel front camera, 2GB of RAM and Samsung's latest eight core processor, the Exynos 5 Octa that the company introduced at CES.
Some rumours claimed that the device will come with Androidv4.2.1 Jelly Bean out of the box. However, other rumours say that the device will run with Androidv5.0, Key Lime Pie.

U2 to Release New Music on Black Friday
U2 will release their first new music since 2009's 'No Line on the Horizon' as part of Black Friday's Record Store Day on Nov. 29.
U2 will release their first new music since 2009's 'No Line on the Horizon' as part of Black Friday's Record Store Day on Nov. 29.
30 years ago, on the night of June 5, 1983, a half-capacity crowd risked inclement weather to congregate at scenic Red Rocks Amphitheatre, situated outside Denver, Colorado, and witness, unbeknownst to them, one of the critical events in the inexorable rise to stardom undertaken by Irish rockers U2. The event was later immortalized on the seminal live album, 'Under a Blood Red Sky.'
To mark the 20th anniversary of U2's 'Achtung Baby,' The Killers, Depeche Mode, The Fray and other notable artists have contributed to a start-to-finish reinterpretation of the classic album.
'AHK-toong BAY-bi Covered,' also featuring a remix of U2′s original version of 'Even Better Than the Real Thing,' will be included in Q magazine's 25th anniversary issue, which hits newsstands October 26.
This would never happen under Liz Lemon's watch: '30 Rock' actor Tracy Morgan attended a karaoke party hosted by Valentino during Fashion's Night Out, where he performed a heartfelt rendition of U2′s 'With or Without You' while sporting a sweat-soaked t-shirt.
Last year, Bono's emergency back surgery in Germany had the U2 fan base worried about his welfare.
There was an entirely different kind of concern for Bono over the weekend, when reports circulated that he was treated for chest pains last week at a hospital in Monaco. U2 fans can rest easy, though: It was just a routine checkup, according to a spokeswoman for the 51-year-old singer.
If you've never heard of Boyce Avenue, then you are definitely missing out. This YouTube sensation sticks to a pretty simple formula - take a song everyone loves and perform it acoustically. Pretty simple, right? Not necessarily. If you've spent any time on YouTube then you know that terrible renditions of popular songs are a dime a dozen. What sets Boyce Avenue apart is the fact that they actually sound good. Well, they aren't actually good. they are great. Check it out.
Classic rock artists may not get much love on top 40 radio anymore, but that doesn't mean no one's listening to their music. Quite the contrary.
According to Pollstar's mid-year report of worldwide concert grosses, some of the most popular tours of 2011 are being led by older rock acts.
Adam Bevell is a huge U2 fan. He's been to a dozen of the Irish band's concerts, and danced with his wife to U2 favorite 'All I Want Is You' during their wedding.
The 32-year old father of four is also blind. At the U2 concert in Nashville, Tennessee he attended last Saturday he held up a sign advertising his services as a "blind guitar player."
At the end of their Saturday show in Nashville, Bono shared the spotlight with a fan. During the show Bono noticed a blind fan holding a sign asking to play a song for his wife.

Winnipeg Free Press - ONLINE EDITION
Blue Jays Winter Tour coming to Winnipeg
A couple of Blue Jays will be spending a few days in Winnipeg this winter.
Colby Rasmus and Anthony Gose, outfielders for the Toronto Blue Jays, are scheduled to be in the city for two days in January as part of the major league baseball club's WinterTour.
Rasmus and Gose will sign autographs at Polo Park Shopping Centre on Sunday, Jan. 6 and then will visit students and staff at Ecole Van Walleghem School in Linden Woods on Monday, Jan. 7. The players will talk about healthy living and positive lifestyles with the kids of the Kindergarten to Grade 8 school.
The Blue Jays Winter Tour begins in Toronto and then hits Winnipeg, Saskatoon and Edmonton.
Catcher J.P. Arencibia and pitcher Drew Hutchison, recuperting from elbow surgery, join the tour in Saskatoon on Jan. 11.
"When we re-launched the Blue Jays Winter Tour in 2010 we had a vision of sharing our enthusiasm for baseball with all our fans across the country," said club president Paul Beeston. "The ability to reach out to communities outside of (Toronto) has signified our commitment as a representative for baseball for the entire nation.
"The reaction we have received from our fans on recent tours is an indication that the passion for baseball and the Blue Jays is alive and well and we look forward to each tour stop with much anticipation."

Abuse or am I overreacting?
Hope someone can shed some light on my situation.
I am a freelace artist & for the past 3 years my boyfriend has been pushing me to break into comics. He loves comics & really wants to break in as a writer. It's an extremely difficult field to get into and I feel being an artist is hard, especially when he yells at me constantly about the way I'm drawing. He gets furious and blows up if I draw a finger wrong or anything. I mentioned to him that doing the art is stressing me out & perhaps I should consider getting a job so I can make more money. He then gets angry & says I'm too stupid to get a 'real' job & doing art is my only option. He threatens to throw me out on the streets or make me have unwanted anal sex if I don't draw everything perfect. He insists that I'm not trying to draw correctly and thus I don't care about him, which makes me feel aweful. One minute he says I'm making his life miserable, then he'll say he likes me the next. I'm confused. Is this my fault or is my b/f being unrealistic?
Also, he has gotten to where every time I do something wrong he wants to 'discipline me' by letting him have anal sex with me (which hurts and I do not like). It's always over silly little stuff too. For instance, if I draw a picture wrong he freaks out or if I talk back to him I get asked why I'm talking back. I
don't know what else to do, so I just let him do it to get it over
with. He says that when I let him `discipline me' it's me showing
him that I'm truly sorry for what I have done. So I do it to try & make it better, but things only get worse. He's hot tempered about everything and when he gets angry about something I did he yells at me and calls me names such as jack@$$, moron, dumb@$$, bi^&h & stupid c*nt.
My question is, why does he treat me this way? Could it be because I push his buttons or deserve it somehow? Would there be any
justification to his actions? I just need to know if it's me so I can fix it.
Thanks for taking the time to read and for any advice you can give.
There is no way that you should be taking this abuse. Being married and making it permanent would only make it worse. Please look after yourself first and get out now. No one has the right to take advantage of you and to use your body in the way that you have posted. I have a DH who complains about the house conditions, I also have 3 little ones under the age of 4 and am 4 months pregnant and he just doesn't get it and understand what work the kids are and how it may be clean but only takes the kids 10 minutes with their toys to make everything a mess. But in no way would I put up with the treatment that you describe.
Love is a two-way street where both partners respect each other. He's not respectful (yelling, blowing up, name calling, threatening, ignoring your requests, telling you you're talking back (?! that's something a parent might discuss with their child, you're not his child). That's abuse. Do you deserve it? No, never. Nothing warrants his abuse, ever. You're not paranoid, defective, impatient, or stupid. You're a grown woman who knows what feels right. Does this feel right? If not, listen to your instincts. Believe yourself, not him. He's all about control and unmet needs. He'd be like this with another woman. Nothing you do or don't do will help.
I hope things become clear to you and you find your way to what you want and need. Take care of you.
Assuming this is not bogus post....
Your BF is sick as can be. Get away from him ASAP...like today...like five minutes from now. Really. Get out of there. He's dangerous.
Once you're safe again, might work on yourself. Normal, healthy people don't allow others to treat them this way. Find out why you have and fix it. If you don't, you'll hook up with another stinker.
I'm sorry to get off track, but I can't sit by any more: asolo, what is it with you that you have to debase and debunk all those you consdier bogus? Are you trying to look like you are too smart to fall prey to something? I don't get it. And you come off as untrusting and suspicious, even when it's not warranted?????? Try to skip posting if you think they are trying to scam you. Just ignore them. Or leave off your sarcastic, "Ah ha! I see you and you're not fooling me" comments. Without it, this time, it would've been perfect advice.
Hey guys, I appreciate all the advice. I am trying to get out of this relationship and I promise you this is not bogus and is not a joke. This man does this to me. I just wanted to know if I was making the right choice in wanting to get out. I'm 25 and have been with this guy since I was 18, so it's hard. He keeps telling me when he kicks me out I won't amount to anything without him and the next person I meet will kick me out too, becasue I'm a piece of sh*T. It's hard to have any self-confidence or anything, but I'm thankful for all of your advice. It really helps me to see he has problems and it's not just me.
- Jessi
"...it's hard..."
Actually it isn't...once you've made up your mind. From your description, you're past-due for moving on. I encourage you to decide and act.
Appears to me you're wary of the "unknown" because however bad it is, it's still familiar. The unfamiliar can be scary. I can assure you that fear isn't worth the concern you seem to have about it.
You've described a dangerous man. You must get away from him. I have every confidence that six months or a year from now, you'll wonder why you waited so long.
The world's full of pretty nice people. No reason to settle for an abusing, insulting nut-case such as you've described.
If you are wondering if it is abuse and it is, then you really need to get out before you start thinking it's normal or that you deserve it. It must be like an addiction because so many women stay in that kind of environment. I have a nice home, nice car , but I would give it all up and live in a one room apartment before I let anyone abuse me.
I also think this is a bogus post or this woman/girl is entirely clueless. Here's why:
1.It's very "sensational"- remember the post about the guy who married a prostitute and etc. It sounds a lot like that - way more sensational than the issues we usualy see here.
2."She" is 25, apparently educated, her post is spelled correctly and no grammar mistakes - but she wouldn't know that all this constitutes abuse? C'mon now. Young women today are smarter than that.
3. Way too much use of profanity-this is supposed to be a tender-hearted young thing who doesn't even know if she is being abused- and she talks like a sailor-a guy wrote this- probably a first year college or high school kid.
4.Just registered today and posted for the first time- admits anal rape to a forum full of strangers - not likely a young, confused girl would do that. Furthermore, it doesn't SOUND like a female. Troll, no doubt in my mind.
So what if it is a troll? Why point out their behavior? What are you gaining? Why not ignore them instead? I don't understand what you're gaining by pointing it out endlessly. Ok, maybe not endlessly. It's just more than seems necessary. Maybe they'll go away if you stop giving them the time of day. And what if they aren't? There are some really abnormal relationships out there. Not in the public eye, but they are there. Could be that the poster is one such person. Bashing them only makes them feel worse and isn't helpful in any way. You really want to put your name on that? Seems to be self-serving to point and hurt. I find it completely puzzling behavior either way. It's ok if you say what you want, no skin off my nose. I've been perplexed about fussing at trolls over here for awhile. I am pretty sure I'm not out of line saying what I am, just an opinion... so we are on opposite sides of the issue. I'll just keep being puzzled over here and wishing them well. Hope you realize that unless you are standing in their presence, you don't fully know what the real circumstances are.
I came here for advice and for support, scarlett2001. Not to be criticised even more. Yeah, I may be stupid to put up with this guy's crap, but I love him and there are times when he can be a nice person. I have made plans to get out of this relationship though and I just wanted to ask other people thier opinions so I could get different views on the matter. I need the support so I can have the courage to leave. I would not come here & waste my time if this was not a legitimate concern for me. As for my grammar, I write everything in MS Word with a spell check. If you think this is fake that's fine. You can think whatever you want. I still appreciate the posts.
There ya go!
Love? You haven't described anything that resembles it on his side or yours. All I've perceived is habit and familiarity. As many people will tell you, "love" isn't enough. And the behavior you've described is intolerable at best, symptomatic at worst.
I wish you well on whatever path you choose.
Thanks for the understanding, guys =) I'm glad that you mentioned that some relationships are abnormal, which mine very much is. I guess I should have read around a bit more before I posted my problem on here. I don't want to offend anyone or make them feel nasty. I guess my situation is pretty deep. My apologies.
- Jessi
Yes, it's abuse.
This guy is doing the same thing to you that pimps do to prostitutes;
intimidating you with rage & threats,
demanding that you make the money,
convincing you that you're somehow substandard, that you're lucky to have him, that you can't survive without him, & that no one else will have you,
"punishing"/"disciplining"/*assaulting!* you.
It's all based on making you believe several big lies:
the truth is...
he doesn't love you,
he isn't entitled to "discipline" you,
he isn't entitled to your income or the products of your talents, &
you own yourself;
he does not own you, he has no property rights to your body or your mind or your heart or your soul.
Pimps & other abusers are parasites & predators at the same time;
parasites feed off you from the inside, predators from the outside.
He's feeding off your emotional vulnerabilities & off your income-producing potential.
Get outta there now.
& get a *strong* support system & use it;
women who've been beaten down are very much like battle-fatigued soldiers, their immediate response to *everything* is to do whatever it is that they've had to do to survive, which in the case of domestic abuse is...submit.
It's very easy to slip back into submissive survival mode & be victimized all over again, by the same guy or by another one.
I wish you the best.
1. Isolation is a powerful weapon for any abuser;
the first thing a pedophile is to convince his victim that her family doesn't love her, doesn't understand her, doesn't want her, that none of her friends is *really* a friend.
He'll convince her so thoroughly that she's likely to confront her friends & family & actually alienate *herself* from them.
I was alarmed when an old roommate got involved with a guy who "swept her off her feet" (these guys also push for fast involvement), & I told her I thought she should slow down & be careful.
She gave me a cynical look & said, "He *said* you'd try to break us up, that you'd be jealous."
He had her convinced that I wasn't her friend.
This guy will try to convince you that you have no friends, that nobody likes you, that your family & your old friends are glad you're gone & that they don't want you back.
That is a lie; it's what he needs you to believe so that he can control you.
2. He'll tell you you're crazy.
That's a lie; he needs you to think you're crazy so he can control you.
As long as you are afraid to confide in family or friends for fear that they'll put you away, he can do whatever he wants.
If you're thinking for yourself, he doesn't have complete control.
He wants you to think you're crazy so he can control you.
Take care, & get away.
Well I will have to wade in here. I must admit, I initially thought the original post was a troll.
Chickycloud, you say you love him, how can you have feelings for someone who treats you so badly ? He does not love you.
Find some support, emotional and otherwise, from family members or friends and leave.
You deserve more...a person who wants you to be happy and this guy has only selfish intentions.
How insulting to have someone tell you how to do your art !! That would really annoy me...gee !!
And he is assaulting you....verbally and physically.
Take care, and leave today.
One of the difficulties abused women have in getting help is that their "stories" sound so "unbelievable".
For many years, police scoffed at women who called in that their husbands were assaulting them & then wanted to drop the charges by the time the police arrived.
The police, & everybody else, were inclined to throw up their hands, roll their eyes, & say, "She complains that he beats her, but she keeps going back.
*She must like it.*"
Would you like it?
Nobody likes it.
Victims of abuse are so convinced of their abuser's power & their own inability to escape & to get by without the abuser that, if their lives aren't in immediate peril, they'll always back up their abuser.
Children do the same thing.
I read a haunting account of a child who was being treated in the emergency room for cigarette burns all over his body.
As the doctors & nurses worked on him, he sobbed & wailed & screamed for his mommy.
the person who burned him?
his mommy.
They aren't crazy, & they aren't making it up;
they've been isolated & controlled & programmed so that they believe what is, to an outsider, unbelieveable.
it's the reason Patty Hearst picked up a machine gun,
it's the reason those wives dropped the charges,
it's the reason brainwashing works,
it's the reason children don't rat out their abusers.
Wow, you guys hit it right on the nail with everything. My b/f is always trying to tell me my family doesn't love or care about me. I have no friends because I'm an @$$hole, and so forth.
I actually came from an abusive home. I grew up in run down trailer parks and went without so my mother could do cocaine and drink. I would cry & beg her not to use, because when she was on it I could always tell and it was very scary as a kid. She drank and would accuse me of sleeping with her boyfriends or yell at me about anything she could. Her b/f's would beat her and she'd always take them back. Of course it was always worse when she was using or drinking. We were homeless for a month and lived in our car. It was aweful. After watching my mother I chose a drug free life and I never drink. My mother is a much better person now. She had my two youngest sisters late in life and I am so happy they aren't having to go through what I did. Sometimes I wonder if I put up with my b/f's abuse because of my past.
Good for you! I am so glad that you have decided to leave. Like other posters have said, six months from now, you will be happier, healthier (stress is bad for you!)and wonder why you stayed so long. My ex-boyfriend mentally abused me for 2 years before I got out. He isolated me from my friends and family, and even convinced me to move 3000 miles away, at one point! I was totally brainwashed and thought he loved me. He controlled everything in my life, down to what I ate for breakfast. My parents were going through a nasty divorce and weren't able to help me, plus, they really had no idea how bad it was. My ex threatened to kill himself if I left, and that kept me there much longer than I wanted. Watch out for that. He finally left to work for a month in another state, and during that time, my self esteem grew and I left and went back home. I only had a $100, a car, and my animals, but we drove 3000 miles back to my mom's house. I told him I didn't care if he killed himself, go ahead, because it won't have anything to do with me. He returned back to our home town, and used to leave notes for me at my work and at my mother's house. I just ignored him, and told his mother I was going to file a restraining order against him. Finally he moved on. And so did I. I met a wonderful, kind man, who treats me with respect and honesty. They are out there!!! I hope you find someone who truely cares about you too!
I wanted to believe this was a troll, too. I will take it for what it claims to be and say:
Abuse. Disgusting. It only gets worse. Leave if/when it safe to do so.
National Sexual Assault Hotline: 1-800-656-HOPE (4673)

Is this post for real?
"He threatens to throw me out on the streets or make me have unwanted anal sex if I don't draw everything perfect."
You know what I would say to that... I'd look him straight in the eye and say..."Honey, if you ever make me do anything like that I don't want to do, I'll be sure you know exactly how it feels. I know people who know people who would gladly become friendly enough with you to let you know exactly how it feels and rip you a new one. So, don't ever threathen me again because I'm just dying for a reason to make sure you're able to relate to me in every single way" and then I'd leave his sorry ass.
Sorry to hear what you are going through. Sometimes abuse is subtle and sometimes so consistant it's hard for an abused person to spot, but the sex stuff sounds like rape and is pretty obvious, NO? You can only put so much blame on him at this point.. you don't have kids, etc... you need to have some respect for yourself. Get out and away from the routine of accepting this kind of behavior. You really can't allow yourself to be treated this way.
"You can only put so much blame on him at this point."
He is the manipulator, the abuser, the assaulter.
He has victimized this woman; *all* the blame belongs to him.
The credit for seeking advice & perspective & the decision to take control of her life is what belongs to the original poster.
Abused women don't own any of the blame any more than prisoners of war, victims of kidnapping, & hostages do.
they have become *convinced* that their abuser is all-powerful, that he can do anything, that they cannot escape, that no one will help them.
Being beaten down relentlessly, day after day after day, *will* eventually destroy a person's ability to look at her captor's statements skeptically.
As I said above, it's the reason brainwashing works.
Blaming the victim is WRONG, it's backwards, it's cruel.
She isn't browbeating herself, he is.
She isn't raping herself, he is.
He is the abuser, he is the perpetrator, *he* is the one responsible, *he* is *exactly* the one to blame.
OP, do, please, get out, & do *not* blame yourself;
this guy already has conditioned you to blame yourself for his behavior, so it might even *feel* more "right" to blame yourself than to place the blame where it actually belongs, on his sadistic little head.
Do get out, but don't think that you're getting out of something you've somehow created.
You're a victim getting away from a crime scene.
You were manipulated & "groomed", just as young victims of pedophiles are manipulated & groomed.
Be careful with your physical safety, & be careful what you allow inside your head.
Some statements that purport to be "helpful advice" are just more blame that should be left in the dust just like you're leaving this guy in the dust.
Take care, & live joyously & well.
At some point in your life you have to take some responsibility for respecting yourself. Anyone 'can' be abused if they allow it... In some cases, it really does boil down to allowing the behavior. It does not sound like she is brutally being taken by force and I doubt a court room could put him away for anything, because although she doesn't enjoy it, she is consenting. Sorry, but this doesn't sound like a case of Stockholm Syndrome or even the subtle emotional abuse many woman suffer with (those woman wouldn't have posted this post), but more like a case of a girl who knows she's putting up with crap but just "needs" to have a boyfriend and doesn't want to leave. We all know the type; they'll put up with the crap that normal women wouldn't put up with. They are afraid to be alone, almost feel comfortable and at home being abused, etc...
sylvia, you may think blaming him 100% is the way to go, and that you're doing her a favor by not having her take any of the responsibility but if she doesn't take some for allowing herself to be treated like this she is probably only going to end up in another relationship with another abuser. She needs to realize that "she" is in control of this situation and change it. It's not about him; it's about her and how she sees herself. I understand where you are coming from and have studied abuse indepthly, and of course I don't want to blame the victim, but I really think this poster is only going to stay with this abuser or repeat the pattern with another one if she doesn't learn to respect herself. She knows he's an ass and what he's doing to her is wrong. Hopefully, she'll stick to her guns and actually leave him and get some help for herself.
Carla, She's not responsible in any way for his behavior. Better spoken? I think that's what Sylvia is saying. I agree. He is 100% responsible for his emotions and actions. Nothing she says or does warrants his hostility or can influence it to ever ever change. Now, she is responsbile for getting out, seeking help, and staying away. That's very true. No matter how hard it is, the ends justify her means at this point. And it's what your message, isn't it? We're not working at cross purposes here, it's a common goal: Jessi getting out.
I think that's a given, rob, that his abuse is his fault... but he may not be doing it to another girl... At some point, the poster has to say enough is enough and stick up for herself... Sadly, most people will take advantage of you if you let them and if you let them, in some cases, well then, imo, that is your fault.
If she just stood by and watched a child be sexually abused by her boyfriend...is she doing anything wrong herself?... Well, she is standing by and letting this guy abuse her -- she too is a person. She knows it's wrong and she's allowing it because it is easier for her. That's different than not realizing it's wrong as happens in many emotional abuse cases. In most emotional abuse cases, the situations don't even seem all that bad to outsiders.. "he makes fun of my cooking, he makes me wait for him when we go out, he doesn't like the way I dress, he laughs at me, etc"... it's so subtle so it's hard to accept and know it's going on. That's why it's so hard to spot. This case knocks you over like a ton of bricks. He's responsible for his behavior, but she's responsible for hers. She really needs to seek counseling to see why "she allows" this type of behavior to continue and/or finds it acceptable (probably because of her past family history). Without doing this, she will just repeat the cycle.
And, no, to the original poster, just to be clear, you are NOT doing anything to desearve this behavior from your boyfriend... but you are disrespecting yourself by allowing it to continue. Two totally different realizations that you should think about.
Of course we all want the poster to leave this guy, but thinking that solely leaving him (and that he is the only problem here) is probably not gonna to solve this poster's life problems. She needs to figure why she allows herself to be treated this way too. This is NOT the same as blaming a rape victim for wearing a low cut blouse. That's a totally different situation. Those rape victims don't go back for more. Sorry that you disagree but that's how I see it...
As I said, police, district attorneys, neighbors, & relatives used to roll their eyes & say, "She went back to him, *she must like it*".
Nobody likes it.
Nobody is "responsible" for being the victim of a crime.
Criticizing a victim & speculating or philosolophizing as to what a victim could do/could have done differently is counter-productive & horribly unfair.
I never have heard anyone say,
"You have to take some of the responsibility for having burglarized; you know people break into houses, & yet you didn't have a burglar alarm, & you had nice things in your home."
I never have heard anyone say, "You have to take some of the responsibility for being robbed at gunpoint. You were wearing a nice watch & you know that's just bait for thieves. You shouldn't have been walking, you should have been locked inside your car."
I never have heard anyone say, "You have to take some of the responisibility for having had your car stolen. What made you think nobody would steal a nice car like that?"
& yet when someone posts a message that describes systematic intimidation, assault, & verbal, physical, & mental & emotional abuse, people criticize her!
This kind of "mugging" is the most personal & involves the most difficult recovery, & criticism & blame are 2 of the very weapons the assailant has used most effectively.
Criticizing & blaming a victim of abuse is very much like pointing a gun at a soldier with post-traumatic stress & saying, "you should have prepared yourself mentally, you shouldn't have been vulnerable, you have to accept responsibility for your own night terrors".
Pay really close attention to: "She really needs to seek counseling to see why 'she allows' this type of behavior to continue and/or finds it acceptable (probably because of her past family history). Without doing this, she will just repeat the cycle." Carla is so right it aint even funny. You're right, your past did contribute, but it doesn't have to if you talk to and listen to a counselor who is a professional. They'll guide you out of this minefield. Otherwise, you are doomed to repeat your history, very likely.
Hey guys,
Again, I really appreciate what advice you are giving me here. I am packing my belongings as we speak and will be headed out of here on the 19th of June. I'm getting away and NOT coming back to this abuse. Also, you are VERY much right about me putting up with it, which in turn makes it worse. I know it probably has a lot to do with my past, but all that can be donw about that is talking to someone. As soon as I get to where I'm going I'm going to look into getting a counselor to try and help me get out of the 'I deserve this abuse mentality'.
Thank you guys for being honest with me and not trying to make me seem like the completely innocent one here. I know I am not and sometimes I need to be told so, so I can get help. My boyfriend is an abuser, but by putting up with it and staying, all I'm saying is it's okay for him to do it again. And it will do nothing but escalate and get worse...
Thanks Sylvia, my sentiments exactly.
Shame on anyone who blames the victim.
Not every victim of abuse came from abusive family backgrounds; abusers do not announce on the first date that they will be abusive (many are very charming, and liked by everyone;) sometimes even women with high self-esteem get involved with abusive men. And vice versa. It can happen gradually. When one method of control fails, the abuser tries another. Life circumstances, especially financial ones are often why victims "allow" abuse.The abuser chases off friends and family. They may have little to no resources left, even if they had a lot to begin with. Credit ratings can be destroyed very easily. Try finding housing with no money and terrible credit. For that matter, sometimes it makes it harder to find employment. Harrassment, fear of being killed, and faulty legal mechanisms all contribute to the phenomenon of domestic violence and why victims stay or go back.
I hope that Jessi gets out of there, before there are children. Having kids makes it harder to leave, and also usually means being stuck with having the abuser in your life (some or a lot) until the kids are grown.
I think Jessie should, in the future, work out how she allowed this abuse to happen, and "arm" herself for the future. She must be secure, in herself, so that she can seek out healthy relationships. I don't see this as "blaming" the victim, as others have said.
We are all responsible for ourselves and protecting ourselves, as best we can. Sure, random attacks on our person and property, we can't really control, but in this case, Jessie stayed in the situation, it wasn't an isolated event.
Nevertheless, she is taking action and that takes great courage. She will grow from this experience.
She has recognised a toxic relationship, and has taken action, she has taken responsibility for her actions.
"You have to take some of the responsibility for having burglarized; you know people break into houses, & yet you didn't have a burglar alarm, & you had nice things in your home."
I do take responsibility for that - I have insurance, my insurance company says I must be responsible for installing window locks, and alarm. But I know I could be robbed, and I have been. It would be irresponsible of me NOT to make some preparation for a bad event.
"I never have heard anyone say, "You have to take some of the responisibility for having had your car stolen. What made you think nobody would steal a nice car like that?"
I am responsible for where I park it...for having it insured etc, I drive a boring car that nobody would want to steal.
These are things I have done to lesson the chances of me becoming a victim.
If we are responsible for our behavior, surely, in the terrible event we become a victim, we will move through the trauma process a lot more smoothly and eventually end up in a place of forgiveness. If we think of ourselves as a "victim" then how do we get over the trauma ?
Yet if your house were burglarized, you wouldn't blame yourself;
you'd, rightly, blame the burglar.
If you were beaten & robbed, you'd blame the person who attacked you.
Having insurance & taking precautions are not the same thing as being "responsible" for having been victimized.
to say that having taken precautions & yet *still* having been assaulted/abused/victimized should make someone move more easily through the healing process is nonsensical:
If anything, it would make one wonder if there's any way to be safe at all!
& recovery from any trauma is a gradual & fragile process that deserves respect & nurturance, not demands for a stiff upper lip & "taking responsibility".
Insisting that someone "take responsibility" for having been conned or assaulted or robbed or abused is very similar to the media glossing over other people's grief by calling for "closure" while the ambulance lights are still turning & the blood is still wet on the pavement!
It's a denial of someone else's right to feel, an insult to someone else's pain.
Jessi, I hope you are OK and far far away from that monster by now. How are you doing? Do you have a counselor yet? I didn't respond earlier because sylviatexas said pretty much everything I was going to say, only better than I would have said it, but I was keeping up on reading your posts. Please let us know that you are OK.

The Arizona Cardinals announced they have signed receiver Dan Buckner to their practice squad.

Buckner spent training camp and preseason with the Cardinals, and has spent time on the practice squad this season as well. The 6-foot-4, 215-pound wideout caught 103 passes for 1,379 yards and seven touchdowns in two collegiate seasons with the Wildcats.

Chat wrap: Future of Franks, Reynolds
SoonerNation writer Jake Trotter chatted with readers on Monday about Oklahoma football and recruiting. Here's the full transcript. If you didn't get your question answered, send it to Jake's mailbag.
Here are a few highlights from the chat:
matt (okcity): personally I think that Trey Franks and Jaz Reynolds should be kicked off the team..how many chances are they gonna get? share your opinion on this if you like, I'd love to hear it but doubt you'll give it. But my question is do you see Bob Stoops telling them to hit the road?
Jake Trotter: Can't argue. I mean this is the fourth time Reynolds has been suspended. From what I've been told, they've been given another chance to work their back out of the suspension. Whether they'll agree to the guidelines and be able to follow them is another story.
Nolan (Iowa City): With the suspensions at WR...do you see TE becoming more involved in the offense or is the position too much of a unknown commodity?
Jake Trotter: Even with the suspensions we know more about what's left of the WR position than we do TE. Brannon Green was brought in to block, and he'll probably get the majority of the snaps. Not only will tight end not become more involved, it might be less involved in the passing game than last season.
Brian (Tallahassee FL.): How big of impact will Mike Stoops have on the defense? Will there any noticable change in terms of strategy?
Jake Trotter: Not so much Xs and Os, but count on Mike Stoops to have more guys ready to play defensively then years past. Mike was using 7-8 guys in his defensive back rotation in the spring, and he didn't even have a healthy Aaron Colvin. The Sooners should be better prepared against injuries this season.
Greg Moore (Norman, OK): 3 sacks and 11 tackles for loss from the entire DT unit combined last season isn't that solid. I know traditionally our DTs aren't stat collectors under Stoops...but that seems low.
Jake Trotter: Yeah, the DT unit wasn't great, and it's basically the same group from last season. That's why I don't understand why some people are suggestion the d-line will suddenly be great despite losing Frank Alexander and Ronnell Lewis.

Shreaded Clam Shells
On Memorial weekend we had a family reunion. The main course was sea food consisting mostly of clams, followed by crab, then lobster. I collected up 4 bags of shells with some corn cobs thrown in. Last week I shreaded the shells and cobs to wind up with 3 five gallon buckets of material. My thought is that this material should be good for the garden. My question is has anyone had experience with crushed shells and how much is useful? Thank you in advance for your input.
As a side note. Discovery channel did a short piece on Kingsford charcoal. The formula was stated as: hardwood sawdust with some anthracite coal baked at 1000 degrees, corn gluten for glue and lime to give a white color after burning.
I once heard that clam shells were ground up and given to chickens to hardden the shells of their eggs. I belive they are very high in calcium and can work really well in a tomato patch. Now 15 gallons that would be a lot of help for lot of tomato plants.
Ground oyster shells are used for poultry rather than clam shells. It would take a veeerrrry long time for clam shells to break down to the elemental form required for plant uptake. You can still add the shells to your soil, but I wouldn't espect them to provide the calcium your tomatoes need.
By the way, I hope you did something with those crab and lobster shells, too! Good stuff!
I know of one use for them, if you plan on planting any bulbs this fall, crushed shells are a great deterrent for tunneling animals that would love to enjoy a delicious meal of your bulbs! You can sort of insulate the bulb in a layer of crushed shells, and when their little claws scratch against the shells they will get irritated and go the other way.
Thank you all for your thoughts. All seafood residue was shreaded. I called a friend who follows Rodale to the letter. They got back to me and read from a book published by Rodale. From memory it stated that: shreaded shells contain Chitin, an anti-fungal, large amounts of calcium, and many micro-nutrients. Apply at the rate of five pounds per 200 square feet. Add bloodmeal to encourage activity.
A side benefit of discouraging moles and voles would be helpful. Thanks again.
While I would tend to agree with just about anything Rodale publishes, I have to wonder about this. I'm currently renovating the back yard of my in-laws house and I've pulled about a dozen 5 gallon buckets of clam shells out of the yard so far. None of them appear to be too degraded other than the fact that they are all sun-bleached. These shells have been in the yard since before my father-in-law sold his last boat in 1981 and gave up clamming. How much could they be contributing to the soil if they're still around more than 25 years later? How finely did you grind yours up?
I use a Sears 9 hp chipper shreader recently picked up at a yard sale cheap. When shreading I throttle it down to near idle. Not too dusty that way. The shells wound up to be 1/4 inch and mostly in a 50/50 mix of pieces and dust. About 7 years ago I had added clam shells just broken up by walking on them and dug them into the garden. Over this time I noticed when tilling that the shells seemed to be disappearing. Some unbroken shells still remain. It may be that breaking or crushing gives better access to the nutrients. Lobster and crab last about 1 year until gone.
I started fall preparations and have added the shell material. Five gallons does not go very far at five pds per 200 sq. feet. If all that is accomplished is to stop or slow mole activity, I will be satisfied. I will do a soil test before planting. I have access to foundry slag and may try some of it. Might be hard on the chipper.
As a side note. Charcoal effectively reduces water related wilting. Try it with potted tomatoes to see what I mean. My rubarb has always had water related wilting issues, but not this year. Cucs like it too. A little goes a long way. Hope this helps. Best regards to all.

Nice chairs
I purchased 4 chairs and am fairly pleased with them. They are are stylsh and the modern style looks good in my open dining area. Packing and shiping was excellent. My only knock on them was during assembly. The bolt holes were partially covered with fabric. They were impossible to assemble until I cut the excess fabric off.Read More

Love it!
I love these chairs! It goes perfect with my round glass dining table. Also, I bought a set of barstools from this same vendor and it went perfect with these as well. Very contemporary! It's very well packaged and it comes in protective/dust cover. Only complain I have is that, it's a bit difficult to assemble. Some of the holes are not perfectly aligned so the screws did not go through all the way.Read More
created a great upgrade to our dining area without the expense. Adds style and comfortRead More
First of all, I thought I was purchasing chairs with stitching down the back. The was the only reason why I chose this chair. Unfortunately it showed up with a plain back and no stitching. Second, one of the chairs was filthy and took me 30 minutes to clean it, and I'm not sure if I actually got it totally clean. Third, it was apparent that someone had returned the chairs because they had difficulty putting them together because washers were missing and the screws were not evenly distributed in the 2 separate bags. Fourth, my husband never had such a horrible time trying to put 2 chairs together ever !!! You could see that the screws were already used and worn down. One of the chairs wasn't cut appropriately and it took him a long time and alot of manipulating to get it to work. Took him 1.5 hours and it wasn't pleasant. I don't know why we just didn't give up and send them back but its such a hassle to do that. But we almost did several times !!! We never saw such poor quality and to think this company sells much more expensive products is beyond me. I will never order furniture from this company or overstock ever again. Extremely disappointed that Overstock would keep sending these items out to people knowing they are sent back because of defects.Read More

Was going to get rid of my old 1940's philco fridge.
Now I think I can give it another chance. Fermentation chamber. One 6gl bucket & Two cornelius kegs.
Im thinking about the Ranco 2 stage controler with a http://www.homebrewing.org/Brew-Heat...el_p_1279.html
?1) Since this ranco is two stage H&C is there a time or temp delay in the cycle not HCHCHCHCHC but H.....C.....H......C......H.......C.....H...... ==(..........= delay)
Or something to that pattern. Sorry a little vague its about the best I can word it. Hope you get the picture.
?2) power outage when the power comes back on will the Ranco need to be reset?
for #1...it's not a temp delay as much as it is a temp "offset". If you've set the temp to 68 degrees with a 1 degree offset (which is configurable). If it hit's 67 the heat will come on, if it hits 69 the cooling will come on. I wouldn't expect it to be frequently switching from one function to another, since you fighting the room temperature which should be consistently above or below the temp you are trying to hold. I would expect it to look more like (daytime) C...C...C...C...C... (then night time) H...H...H...H...H... Especially if you use a themowell so you are measuring the wort temperature which won't fluctuate as much as the ambient temperature.
2.) My 1 stage ranco controller would maintain it's configuration settings even if it were unplugged, so I'd expect the 2 stage controller to act the same way.

Scion Rock Fest: Photos and Nachtmystium Controversy
By Amy Phillips and Mike White on March 2, 2009 at 4:15 p.m. EST
Photos by Mike White; Above: Mastodon
The Scion Rock Fest pulverized the city of Atlanta on Saturday, with just about every single awesome metal band on the planet crammed into the Masquerade for a ridiculously badass day of music. Mastodon capped off the blitzkreig, performing songs from their forthcoming album Crack the Skye, and welcoming special guest Scott Kelly of co-headliners Neurosis to the stage. Boris, Krallice, Harvey Milk, High on Fire, Baroness, Torche, Coalesce, and Converge all helped melt faces.
However, the Scion Rock Fest wasn't completely free of drama. Chicago black metal band Nachtmystium, originally scheduled to play the fest, were absent from the lineup. According to a statement from frontman Blake Judd-- first posted by Brooklyn Vegan and later verified via a press release-- Scion's parent company Toyota kicked Nachtmystium off of the bill because of the band's alleged associations with Nazism. "A troubling, and unjustly-applied notion that we are, or ever have been, in any way, a 'Nazi' band or a political band on any level, is completely absurd and we are disgusted that there is someone out there who really believes we are of this ilk," he said.
Representatives for the festival and for Scion have not yet responded to questions about the incident.
According to Decibel, these accusations have dogged Nachtmystium for years, due to the fact that their first album, Reign of the Malicious, was released by the NSBM (National Socialist Black Metal) label Unholy Records. As Judd told Decibel in 2006, "In the past, we've had some indirect ties to labels and bands that are part of the NS scene. At one point not too many years ago, it wasn't uncommon for NS labels or bands to trade and work with non-politically motivated bands and labels because at the end of the day, we're all trying to promote, release, and be involved with music—all politics aside. Today it seems like there's less of a connection, at least for me and my label. We don't oppose people's right to be 'NS' or whatever—that's a personal choice, and if you live in the USA, you have the right to that opinion. Even though I personally, my band(s) and my label have absolutely no interest in being a part of that scene, I will ALWAYS take their side when it comes to their freedom of speech being imposed upon."
The full text of Judd's statement is reprinted after the photos.

combine photos
jankeyJune 12, 2008
I would like to combine a photo of a face just barely visible and a photo of clouds - so it looks like a shadowy face in the clouds.
Is this possible? if so, please let me know how. I have Picasa, Paint, HP Photosmart - thought I had Photoshop, but can't seem to find it (and don't know how to use it anyway). Thanks for your help.
