Vin Diesel is perhaps as well-known for his eloquence as he is for his ant-man arm guns. During Fast and Furious 6's whirlwind press tour, Diesel gave Moviefone the most insightful, carefully constructed, and in-depth review of his new film. Here it is, in all of its erudition:
It's the best movie in the world and it's a love story and it's baller status.
Boom. The best movie in the world. Ever. Forget Empire Strikes Back, forget Citizen Kane, forget John Ford's entire catalog, or anything else. He does seem closer to the mark on it's baller status — everything points to FF6 being an outstanding pre-summer blockbuster. It has an effin' tank chase and a car blasting out the front of a cargo plane — that's baller. Albeit, I have no idea actually what baller means. I'm from the suburbs
Fast and Furious 6 opens tomorrow. It's a love story, guys…a love story.

Underreported: Bats and White Nose Syndrome
Thursday, October 30, 2008
Guests:Merlin Tuttle
Comments [6]
Wasn't there an underreported segment on this June 11, 2009? I can't find it on the website.
how do I attract bats to my bat house?
Excellent segment. We have contacted the Bat Conservation Society. There are bats living in our barn. Many years ago, we observed that their population had diminished. Mr. Tuttle suggested that pesticides used on the nearby golf course might be the reason. Now that they have switched to natural products to maintain the golf course the bats have returned, correction... "had returned". (During the summer of 2008, however, we have noticed another dimunition of the population.) Bats are EXTREMELY effective in controlling mosquitos and beneficial to the environment in many ways., as your guest so aptly described. I will follow this subject with great interest. Thank you.
As a resident of the Northeast, I'm especially concerned that the loss of hundreds of thousands of bats will be accompanied by an enormous upward spike in the mosquito population. This in turn will increase the odds of becoming a victim of West Nile Disease and Eastern Equine Encephalitis, both of which are active in the Northeastern States and Canada. Active measures to eliminate mosquito breeding areas and to eradicate adult mosquito populations must be undertaken to limit the spread of these viruses.
Fascinating segment. How do the bats find the caves for hibernating? Do they go back to the same ones every year?
Are there other indications corresponding to this--unusual behavior, for example?

DETROIT (AP) - The Yankees were ready to bench Alex Rodriguez again when Game 4 of the AL championship series was postponed by rain.
Now, New York's top pitcher also might face a limited role, making a playoff comeback that already seemed far-fetched appear even more unlikely.
Game 4 was called off Wednesday night and rescheduled for Thursday, delaying Detroit's attempt to win its second AL pennant in seven years. The Tigers lead the best-of-seven series 3-0 and were ready to send Max Scherzer to the mound against Yankees ace CC Sabathia.
Cashman had plenty to talk about Wednesday even though not a single pitch was thrown. Manager Joe Girardi again left Rodriguez out of his starting lineup, and the Yankees also announced that injured shortstop Derek Jeter would have surgery on his broken left ankle.

Say the CM has insulted them by questioning their awareness on power tariff hike issue
Chief Minister N. Kiran Kumar Reddy was on Wednesday abruptly interrupted during his public meeting at Mancherial town held in connection with the launch of 'Indiramma Kalalu' programme. The interruption, albeit for a few minutes, came when opposition MLAs, Nallala Odelu (TRS) from Chennur and Gunda Mallesh (CPI) from Bellampally in Adilabad district vehemently objected to an observation made by Mr. Reddy questioning the level of awareness among opposition parties in general and the Chennur MLA in particular about the contentious power tariff hike issue.
In response to a plea made by the Chennur MLA to rollback the Rs. 6,000 crore worth hike in power charge effected recently, Mr. Reddy insinuated that the MLA and opposition parties were ignorant about the gamut of the issue. "I still wonder why the opposition parties sat on the road yesterday in protest over the supposed power tariff hike," he observed.
At this stage, Mr. Odelu and the CPI MLA stood up to oppose the remarks made by the Chief Minister. There was a lot of gesticulating between the three leaders as the opposition MLAs contented that they were insulted while Mr. Reddy wanted them to get back to their seats.
Minister intervenes
Peace was restored after the intervention of Backward Classes Welfare Minister Basavaraj Saraiah, but the Chennur MLA did not seem to have been pacified. He told reporters after the event that he would lodge a complaint against the Chief Minister under the SC, ST Atrocities Prevention Act for 'pushing' him and denigrating him by questioning his level of awareness on the burning issue.
Meanwhile, Mr. Reddy went ahead with explaining about the SC, ST Sub Plan and 'Indiramma Kalalau' which was launched by him earlier at Chinna Gopalpur village near Mancherial. He promised to meet the irrigation and other needs of Adilabad district from the Pranahita-Chevella Lift Irrigation Scheme before water was supplied to other districts.
The Chief Minsiter distributed house site pattas to 6,600 beneficiaries and cheques to self-help groups and laid foundation stones for 14 programmes. He interacted with tribal families at Chinna Gopalpur and had lunch with them at Mancherial. Social Welfare Minister Pitani Satyanarayana and Tribal Welfare Minister P. Balaraju also attended the programme besides MLAs G. Arvind Reddy (Mancherial), Atram Sakku (Asifabad), Kaveti Sammaiah (Sirpur), A. Maheshwar Reddy (Nirmal) and MLCs K. Premsagar Rao and Venkat Rao. The security was manned by top officials including Warangal Region Inspector General of Police A.B. Venkateswara Rao.

The Best Fork Out There
posted 6 years ago
I like this fork better than my Dura Fork even though my husband was able to break one of the tines when it caught on a root. It is much lighter and easier on my back and gets the job done.
Pros: Lightweight, Durable
Cons: Fork Outlasts the Handle

No one seems to have covered this story so here's the hearing at the U.S. Senate by Senator Tom Carper, arguably the strongest Postal Service advocate in Congress:
Now that you have seen the hearing, here now is an article I find interesting about postal union donations to Congress:
By Angela Greiling Keane and Jonathan D. Salant, BloombergClearly, there's a conflict of interest for the notorious Rep. Darrell Issa given the number of donations he's received, which have been more than any other House Republican. Senator Susan Collins received the most donations it seems for a member in the U.S. Senate as far as Republicans.
WASHINGTON — All but five of Congress's 255 Democrats and independents received campaign donations from postal worker union groups in the past six years, raising the political risk of Postmaster General Patrick Donahoe's move to end Saturday mail delivery.
Political action committees for the seven postal unions contributed $9.6 million from 2007 to 2012 to current members of Congress, 91 percent of it to Democrats and two independents who caucus with them, according to data compiled by Bloomberg from the Federal Election Commission and the Center for Responsive Politics, a Washington-based research group.
Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, a co-sponsor last year of the legislation that would have required waiting at least two years to end Saturday mail delivery, received $70,500, more postal union donations than any Republican in Congress. Calls to Collins's office over two days weren't returned.
California Rep. Darrell Issa, chairman of the House committee with oversight over the Postal Service, had the most donations among House Republicans, $44,500. Issa, who has said he backs ending Saturday mail delivery, said the union donations don't affect his position.
Democrats control the U.S. Senate, which must agree to most of the changes Donahoe says are needed to save the Postal Service from insolvency. Many of his proposals are intended to reduce labor costs accounting for 80 percent of the service's expenses. That puts Donahoe in conflict with post office unions, which would lose most of the estimated 22,500 jobs that would be cut if Saturday delivery ends, and have spent years making friends on Capitol Hill.On the other hand, you have protests like these:
"That's why it's been so hard to come up with a plan for the Postal Service," said Bill Allison, editorial director of the Sunlight Foundation, a Washington-based watchdog group. "The obvious thing you want to do is cut back on the number of employees, cut back on services, cut back on benefits. That's something Democrats haven't wanted to do in part because of the support they've gotten from the unions."
Donahoe is trying to cut $20 billion a year in costs after the Postal Service, in the face of declining mail volume due in part to email and online commerce, lost $15.9 billion last fiscal year and an additional $1.3 billion in the quarter that ended Dec. 31.
The postmaster general yesterday stood by his position that ending Saturday mail delivery in August is legal, even though appropriations bills for three decades have required six-day mail, with the government operating under temporary funding.
Senate Democrats including Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada insist they, not Donahoe, get to decide on ending Saturday delivery. The Senate passed a measure last year that gave Donahoe some of what he wanted, while blocking him from ending Saturday mail delivery for at least two years. The House didn't vote on that measure or its own plan.
"It may be in the public interest to curtail Saturday mail delivery, but the decision may not be made in economic interests but in the interest of who their friends are," said Gary Chaison, a labor professor at Clark University in Worcester, Mass.
This one hits close to home for me as I'm a Berkeley Native:
Any thoughts?
I have some: Let's start nailing down our Congressmen/Congresswomen on this.
House of Representatives:
U.S. Senate:
And let's especially nail down Darrell Issa and Susan Collins since they've gotten the most contributions from the postal unions.

Well-Known 1860 Transitional Half Dime, MS621860 H10C Transitional MS62 NGC. Judd-267, Pollock-315, R.4. Long included in the pattern series, the transitional half dime is neither a pattern nor a regular issue. It was a curiosity struck by Mint Director James Ross Snowden as "trade bait" to enhance the Mint Collection. The old starred obverse by Anthony Paquet was paired with the new 1860 reverse. The result was a coin that lacked mention of the issuing authority, thus the sobriquet a "nationless" coin.
The So-Called 'Nationless' Coin
The So-Called 'Nationless' Coin
All transitional half dimes show a pronounced diagonal die scratch on the lower left portion of the rock. Although this piece was struck as a business strike, the fields are nicely mirrored and flash through the deep layers of gray, blue, and rose toning. The strike is irregular, and light hairlines are evident beneath the toning on each side. Census: 4 in 62, 46 finer (1/10). (NGC ID# 2346, PCGS# 4373)

77 Shadow Street (2011)
by Dean Koontz
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Pretty good, but it got laggy in the middle. Almost set it aside. Overall good haunted house story.
I couldn't wait to finish this book. I vow to never waste my time on a book like this gain.
A pretty good story. I had a hard time figuring out where Koontz was going with the story but I was pleasantly surprised when it was revealed.
** I listen to my books while working at my easel, This was read by Peter Berkrot, who I thought did an outstanding job with the different characters.
Yeah, baby, Dean Koontz is back from experimenting with high concept thrillers and unlikeable protagonists. THIS is the kind of book that made all of us fans fall in love with his work in the first place: scary, fast-paced, with lots of interesting characters and a thought provoking premise. The only reason it doesn't get 5 stars from me is because of a few unexplained things that happen towards the end, not deal breakers, but could have been done better. I'd give 4.5 if I could. The best part is that now I can recommend to "Koontz virgins" to just read his latest instead of sending them to older works.
I'd been looking forward to reading 77 Shadow Street by Dean Koontz for a while. It was published in 2011, and when I didn't receive it for Christmas that year (my family knowing I'm a big Koontz fan), I was a little disappointed.
Well, now that I've read it (from the library), I'm so glad no-one I know spent a single dollar on this book. It was rubbish.
In essence, 77 Shadow Street is about a building called the Pendleton, built on top of Shadow hill in the late 1800s. Every 38 years, something weird happens on this site - even the Indians knew to steer clear of this place - and it has been the site of murders, suicides, madness and disappearances.
Koontz introduces the reader to the current tenants of the Pendleton, and through each of them we experience this round of weirdness as the 38 years is about to kick in and the past, present and the future cross over.
Dominating this world is the One:
"I am the One, the all and the only. I live in the Pendleton as surely as I live everywhere. I am the Pendleton's history and its destiny. The building is my place of conception, my monument, my killing ground. . . ."
77 Shadow Street has elements of horror as Pogromites pursue and kill the tenants and the One controls everything. I thought this was a weak plot, the horror scenes were gross and frightening but without being engaged with the narrative I found them pointless and wasted.
I remain a fan of Dean Koontz and most likely always will, but go on the record as saying 77 Shadow Street is a dud read; don't bother.
References to this work on external resources.
Wikipedia in English
No descriptions found.
Once the center of madness, suicide, mass murder, and whispers of things far worse, the 1800s Gilded Age palace known as the Pendleton, has been re-christened in the 1970s as a luxury apartment building. But now inexplicable shadows caper across walls, security cameras relay impossible images, phantom voices mutter in strange tongues, not-quite-human figures lurk in the basement, and elevators plunge into unknown depths.… (more)

concerned family member may be a child molestor(606 Posts)
OK, this may be long. It also maybe triggering re child molestation.
The background:
My mil is very unbalanced, manipulative and unstable. My dh agrees with this. He credits her behaviour as causing his deep seated anxiety issues, previous depression, self esteem issues etc. She hates me as I have removed dh from her control. Fil enables her, admits she is v difficult person he doesn't want to spend time with (works abroad). But he will defend her to the hilt/ tell people to put up with her unreasonable behaviour etc.
Has not worked at all for 7ish years, has worked in nursery and playgroup settings before then. Totally unable to form or maintain relationships with adults. Preoccupied/ obsessed with young children. Dh and bil covered in unexplained scars, healed fractures. Both have virtual no memories of their childhood. The ones they do have are generally very odd or disturbing.
After telling my dh to leave me and move back home so she could raise our dd and then only child we agreed to never see her without fil, which means we saw them rarely. Fine by both of us husband much happier when we have little contact.
After dd2 I was readmitted to hospital. 1.5 years had passed since incident above. Mil has been on best behaviour, seemingly changed. Dh could not take time off to care for DC when I was in hospital; would have lost his job and we would have lost everything. My df had a heart attack at same time, so my DM unavailable. The only person who could help was mil. Very very unhappy I agree she can come. Seems fine. Dd1 v clingy, but new baby +mummy in hospital seems to explain it.
I am discharged to convalase at home. Mil stays to help, I am happier as it means I can supervise, until well enough to send her home. Dd1 seems to be under going potty training regression. I feel uncomfortable with mil in house decide to do more. Put Dd1 in nappies again to make things easier (Dd1 is 2). Dd1 has always been very private about toileting- doesn't like being changed in big public changing rooms etc. We respect this. Dd1 seems unhappy about mil changing her. Me and dhsay I will do changes from now on, explain nicer for mil and Dd1 and help me get back in routine so she can go home!
Over next 2 days mil changes Dd1 every time I'm out of room, even when specifically asked not to. At this point just think she is being exasperating and making some kind of point/ power play.
Then I walk in on her and Dd1 mid change. Dd1 seems very uncomfortable. Mil visibly annoyed I've come in and seems on edge. She has nappy cream all over her fingers. It all seems wrong. There is nappy cream on Dd1 but inside her labia,not over normal areas.
I remove both dds and take them upstairs to play. I am freaked out is this something innocentthat imI'm misinterpreting or has something horrible just happened? Dh comes home, after DC asleep I tell him what I saw, how upset I am and that I want mil to leave in morning.
Dh agrees mil can leave but very upset I could even think this about his mother. Thinks I have misunderstood what is happening. I admit this is possible but that risk of being wrong is too great.
We agree that mil will never be alone with DC again. She leaves.
Over next few months we see her with fil 3 times for very brief periods. She is never unsupervised and over this period dh finds out she has lied to his face and cost us 1000's in a bid to make us financially dependent on them. He agrees this shows how evil and selfish she is.
Fast forward to this month. Dh wants to see extended family and his childhood home. We agree to visit il's and he promises to support me in not allowing Dd1 and DC to be alone with mil no matter what.
We go and dh becomes frightened child in face of il bullying. Undermines me in stopping his mum being alone with Dd1 who is the only DC mil seems to be interested in.
Then mil starts trying to take Dd1 to potty. Alone, in distant parts of the house when there is a bathroom next door, when she has just been and when mil has been told not to. I end up literally chasing her around the place.
Eventually I go change younger Dc ready for departure. I return Dd1 and mil have disappeared. Dh has not noticed.
Find them in most distant bathroom, there is a weird atmosphere. Dd1 on potty. Mil getting out nappy cream. I look at her, she says oh, disapointedly and leaves. I help Dd1 finish pulling trousers up. She asks for cream, which we don't use. I say no and she says mil said it would be nice.
We go home. I lay down the law to dh in the car about his failure to support. He is contrite agrees he has let me down and undermined me. But he is not convinced it is nesscessary to keep mil from being alone, that he is upset I could be worried about his mum like this and am overreacting because of her emoitional abuse of her him as a child and her dislike of me.
So mumsnet, help me out. I am I completely overreacting or is my concern legitimate. And if so what should I do? There is nothing I could go ton the police with ifyswim, just a feeling of unrest and wrongness and weird behaviour.
Dh is over distressed and refusing to discuss, though he says he is thinking. I feel sick with worry whenever I think about it. Dd1 seems fine, thank god.
I did indeed read all the pages, yes. I wasn't aware we had to 'let it die'
Just because it has been said, does that mean I cannot post my opinion too?
I still stand by what I said, she can't protect her dds unless she cuts contact. She doesn't want to do that, you of all people should know that cutting contact has to be swift, GS, not drawn out for the benefit of others.
greensleeves- I won't say it's good to hear from someone who has been through something similar, because obviously it's terrible that you've had to, but it is comforting. Esepcially that you think I am handling it ok,
That is the long term goal that I have to focus on. I'm fully expecting in about 12 months, when she realises that I'm not going to be swayed, she will become sick (she has history for manufacturing illness) and that the eventual hysterics will enable DH to see that cutting contact is the only real solution. I do have a back up plan of emigrating- various personal reasons mean this would be quite easy for us to do and Mil cannot fly so we'd be totally safe. So if DH is ultimately unable to go through the emotional ructions of officially cutting contact, emigrating have the same result but without him having to officially say anything ifyswim.
It's the staying calm that's the thing. I think a lot of the posters baying for blood feel that I'm some sort of monster because I'm keeping it together, not lashing out and planning things ifyswim. The thing is the likelihood is that Mil has done something awful and the fact is that she is an awful horrible person. But I can't change what has happened- nothing I do, as much as I wish it, can change that. So I have to focus on what will keep my dd's safe and give dd1 the emotional strength, tools and support to deal with any fall out/ memories.
One of the reasons I wanted to update the thread was to help keep me focused in a strange way, to be reminded that it is as serious as I think.
freepile- I understand what you are saying about the police and if they would take any action I would report. But as you have seen up thread I've been advised that the police would investigate but that there is not enough information for any action to be taken. I've also had PM's concurring with this. I won't put my dd through that for no outcome- it will not result in a conviction so there would be no protection for anyone else and knowing Mil she would feel emboldened by this. Mil is the kind of person whose local church refused to let her help out at a soup kitchen any more as she was so annoying/ awkward/ manipulative. (She stopped going to church after this). She has no relatives apart from Fil, Bil and us and very few friends. Her neighbours are elderly and childless. I do not think that anyone would let her help. She is horrible to be honest and if they weren't related to her no-one would have anything to do with her. Obviously I would rather she was jailed but seeing as that is not going to happen I have to prioritise my children.
differentname- obviously I won't enjoy it! Of course I'll be stressed and anxious. I'm not going to be any less stressed and anxious if I don't go however as I will be worrying about what completely barmy thing she's going to do/ whether she will try and turn up etc. I am not going to the wedding because I think it will be fun for goodness sake! I'm going because it will support dd's and dh in a relationship in their only genuinely nice relative on his side of the family and because it is a known quantity in terms of mil's actions, so safer than provoking her into hysterics at this stage while dh's resolve is still being strengthened.
As far as DH- yes in the sense that he does not believe that any abuse has taken place he is a risk as he cannot protect my children fully while that is the case. Leaving him and exposing DC's to more risk because of this would be stupid and the only thing it would achieve is exposing the children to more danger. Will he take my children to MIL now while we are together- no, not under any circumstances. Would he take my children to MIL if we separated? Probably, because the contact precautions are something he is doing for me rather than something he believes in and why would he continue to do something for me if we split up?
However posters up thread were actually saying that dh was a risk because he was an abuser himself because he had been a victim as a child. A horrible thing to say and something that isn't true.
I have also cut contact with a parent, 20yrs ago, op. And I don't look back. Your dh is not going to do it, because he doesn't want to. You are fighting a losing battle.
I do not think he will go on to abuse them, and I do think that is rather a horrible thing to say. But who knows how he will think in an emergency if you are sick. I do feel for you, it is a shit situation to be in. But by drawing out cutting contact like this, nothing will be achieved. I am pleased your dh is getting counselling, but one whiff of this will just give her more ammo to beat him with. He turns into a frightened child around her, he will believe ANYTHING she says. And as he already seems to be doing, he WILL take her word over yours.
And I never implied that you think it would be fun to be at the wedding. But it should be fun, shouldn't it? Watching your dds run around in their new posh little outfits, getting doted on by all and sundry because they are so cute, watching them dance etc. But all the time your eyes will be on her. And your dc on deadlock, right at your side the whole time.
OP I feel so so sorry for you, having read your op. I agree with you that you're in a situation where it's very difficult for you to do anything other than what you're doing. Your concerns about your DH are very real and very legitimate, and you are right to say that if there was a split, your DC's welfare would be taken completely out of your control. One of the things that's said a lot by separated women on the Relationships board is how much they hate the fact that while their DC are away from them, they have no control over what's being done/said and how awful that is. There's no point in minimising this concern of the OP's: it's real in this case.
I have to say though, my overriding feelings on reading your thread are extreme annoyance with your fil, who is an enabler and is being cut slack here he doesn't deserve, and to some extent with your DH, who even if it's difficult for him to accept, should have enough evidence from his own childhood and from your account of what's happened with your DD, to support you 100%, no questions asked, in any decision re Mil, up to and including cutting her off.
I am worried for you yourself because, what with the above and your own family, you just don't seem to have solid, unequivocal support around you, and have to bear all this alone. There is no doubt in my mind though, that you're following the only path you can. I'm rooting for you. I hope things change for the better.
differentname- Well done you. And you're right of course that DH at the moment doesn't want to do this. I don't think he will never want to do this though- at the moment he is not ready to do so as it will mean admitting how terrible his childhood was and that ultimately there is nothing wrong with him and everything wrong with them. Hence the therapy, and the fact that he sees therapy as appropriate suggests that it might work.
He is frightened of her, the best way I can describe it is he shuts down. He often has no recollection of anything that has happened when they visit. It is like only his body is there and he has gone somewhere else. It has taken him a very long time to not feel worthless because she says he is worthless.
I would say that it is not that he believes his mother over me. I was on very strong pain killers at the time of the op incident and he thinks that they blurred my perception- that everything is a symptom of her controlling narcissism, rather than the behaviour of a paedophile. As far as emergency child care I have actually been admitted to hospital again since- dh took leave and my mum helped and we have saved up an emergency childcare fund to cover disasters. He has also changed jobs to mean he is able to be more flexible and a situation like that in the op would not arise again. So I have concrete reason to trust that he will take my wishes seriously if I am incapacitated.
If you are right and he will never cut contact we will emigrate. Because short of getting him to agree to no contact I do not have a way to stop her seeing my dd's apart from emigrating. Do you have any suggestions as to what I should do?
Fandom, I remember your original thread and think you are handling an incredibly difficult situation, very well. Ignore the unsupportive posters, you clearly have the interests of your dds and your dh at heart.
Fwiw, though I'm sure she's last person you wanted to spend your time with, sticking to your mil like glue gives her the very clear message that she's not going to get away with anything because you are onto her.
It's a horrible situation and I think that you are to be congratulated for still going to the wedding.
hello and hilly- thanks
I am extremely annoyed with fil- if he was a decent parent he would have left her and saved his children, when he realised the kind of person she is, instead of choosing to work away and leave them with her alone for months at a time. Trust me I am angry at him, but he's not really my concern, ifyswim. He's not a danger apart from his enabling of mil and the emotional blackmail he may use on dh.
As for dh I am annoyed with him that he is unable to do the right thing. But he is trying. If he was ignoring it/ not prepared to discuss it/ avoiding therapy/ undermining me about it this would be a different thread, but as it is he is co-operating, supportive about the measures I have put in place- does not question it. In fact he didn't even notice he'd not spoken to his mother apart from when she picked up the house phone on christmas day for months. I wish he could take the final step.
I do feel very alone. I don't have solid support and I know that my family would not ultimately support me in this. Dh needs my support, so can't support me.
I hope you are taking care of yourself too fandom. Do you have someone supporting and caring for your emotional needs, is your mum supportive? You're an amazing mother - you really are xx
Fandom Keep those measures in place, because one day, your DH will confront that past, even if he doesnt want too, once he has then removing her will be alot easier.
I think you need to find some support for you...now! And I don't mean on a website. I don't see this improving, even in the long term, because his mother has way too much power over him. He would rather believe her than you because otherwise it is too painful. Regardless of the painkillers you were on at the time (that is just his excuse that he gives himself not to go along with you) he is believing her over you by not doing anything wrt her behaviour. He knows how destructive she is, he lives with that everyday, but he won't see it, he is fooling himself & you, sorry!
I wasn't looking for you to give me a well done for cutting contact, I was trying to show you it is easier just done, just like that, no messing around.
I do understand why you took this route, but I really do think you are putting too much on your dh to change. And in a year, damage can be done. Your dh is unpredictable, he will do anything to prove that she is not a danger to his girls, because he has to prove it to himself.
I know no amount of me going on will change your mind, I just want you to be prepared for the fallout. If it were just you & your dh, I would probably not have commented on this thread, but there are children involved. Have you even thought of the possibility that what you saw wasn't even the first & second time? That your dd regressed/was clingy/doesn't like her changing her nappy because of what happened? She already shows signs of distress & subjecting her to her abuser is just going to add to that! Subjecting a child to their abuser, even if nothing is happening tells that child that you think nothing is wrong. That isn't the message I would even want my kids to have.
His therapy is going to (as you all hope) help him remember & come to terms with his past. What if he remembers & then tries to take steps to remedy/put right his memories? Denies them & tries to prove it didn't happen, i.e takes your girls to her house?
Don't say that he won't do it, because a lot of men do stuff that their wives never thought possible. (You only have to look at Relationships to know that! Even more so when they are confronted by things they don't want to deal with)
What if you are out & she rocks up? She totally overwhelms him & he lets her in? He shuts down around her, she is bound to be able to wheedle her way in!
Don't say she won't travel, narcissistic people are unpredictable & will do anything to self serve. And once she gets wind of your plans, she will do exactly that!
greensleeves- hah! no my mum is not supportive. Very old school attitudes my mum sadly. I have never been able to rely on her for emotional support.
gregbishop- the measures are here to stay! We talked about it a little tonight and I think he's hoping she'll drop dead and then he won't have to deal with it!
differentname- she has a health condition that means she cannot fly.
The thing is what do you suggest I do? I think the things you are suggesting are very likely to the order of impossible. Even if I am wrong though I can't make him cut contact. I can't keep the girls safe if I left him. So other than making sure I'm worried about these things, and trust me I do worry about all those things why are you mentioning them?
My point about cutting contact is that clearly you were able to do, great for you. My dh is not able to do so and the fact that you could and not look back does not mean anything because you are two different people. He needs time to process and feel like he is entitled to not have to see them. That doesn't mean that he has anything to prove. The fact that he is not able to believe that his mother is a child molester doesn't mean he feels that she was a good parent. He does not, as you will see up thread, he thinks she was an emotionally abusive narcissist. Hardly the feelings of someone hell bent on proving his mother innocent at all costs! Yes he doesn't want to think she is a paedophile- she is his mother. Not everyone has your strength or clarity of judgement in order to do the right thing for themselves. A trip to the stately homes threads shows just how difficult some people find it to do the right thing by themselves, even in the face of extreme provocation.
You really think that he's going to decide to take my children hundreds of miles, without discussing it with me, so booking time of work, packing clothes, etc without me knowing, to see someone he didn't even notice he hadn't spoken to for months, to prove a point, a point he knows he could never prove to me, knowing that if he did so I would divorce him and he would loose the wife he loves and the family that gives him a meaning and purpose in life? Really?
There is maybe 15 hours a month at most that I am not in the house when DH and the children are at home. You think that Mil, who has no driving licence, and various health conditions that mean she cannot easily travel alone, if at all, is going to rock up to the house, on one of these unscheduled days and times? I mean she might, but its fairly unlikely, isn't it. And if she did, DH knows to immediately contact me and call me back. To take her and DC's to a public place, preferably wherever I am. Even if we went no contact she could do that at anytime, in fact would be more likely to do so.
I have thought of the possibility that it was not the first or second time. There was a 12 hr period where I was in hospital and mil had sole charge of my daughter. It was one of the things I discussed with the NSPCC. However given that I can't stop MIL from seeing dd at this point the only thing I can do is make sure DD knows when I discuss this with her when older that I was attempting to keep her as safe as I could and be prepared to deal with any anger/ emotions around that. Again other than reminding me that my life is basically shit from now on and that there is nothing I can do that will ever make my family ok again, that I will always be worrying and firefighting issues around this, what are you hoping to achieve here pointing this out to me?
very unlikely not very likely, doh- I read that 3 times too
I am not looking to upset you, op...and I think I am doing. For that, I am sorry. I don't know.. I guess, truthfully, that I think your head is all over the place & I am trying to help (perhaps not though) you see that what you are doing might not work. I appreciate that I am reminding you how, as you say, "shit your life is" and I am sorry! I will stop.
I hope you can get some support, and can I just say that I do think, in time, your family will be OK again. You do sound strong and despite what has been thrown at you here (and yes, I agree I did that too) you have kept calm & rational.
Good Luck op, I mean that sincerely.
It's frustrating more than anything differentname, because I've asked people to focus on emotional support or practical help rather than making me feel bad. I know the plan might not work, but unless you have an alternate that is legal and will keep my children safe what else can I do?
Thank you for the good wishes! I will update again if/ when I feel I need support.
Hi Fandom,
Been reading your posts with great interest, this
"My mil is very unbalanced, manipulative and unstable. My dh agrees with this. He credits her behaviour as causing his deep seated anxiety issues, previous depression, self esteem issues etc. She hates me as I have removed dh from her control. Fil enables her, admits she is v difficult person he doesn't want to spend time with (works abroad). But he will defend her to the hilt/ tell people to put up with her unreasonable behaviour etc. "
Could be me describing my dh and family even down to PIL who spends most of his time away from her abroad. Even when you said that she talked to counsellor about him having problems, my MIl also did this and tried to talk to DH therapist saying was it x y or z.
my DH also cannot remember alot of his childhood and is not a great talker. Him and his DS were bed wetters until about 10.
He knows what his DM is like however but I can tell he still wants to please her....
Anyway, as others have said you have done well, and good luck with your DH. x
That's it exactly clementine- he wants to please her even though he knows what she is like and even though he knows nothing will ever be good enough.
It's so frustrating to see someone who should love and cherish your loved ones hurting them isn't it?
Not a great talker is a good summation of my husband- his family also make out like this is some kind of terrible problem, but the truth is that he is least able to talk when he is anxious/ uncomfortable, so around them.
I think I will PM you some of the barmy horrible things she has done- I think you have to have a relative like this to really understand the affect it has!
Please don't think that your life is going to be shit from now on! I know it is total shit right now but if you keep focused on your plan, your dh does his part and you do eventually get her out of your lives, things WILL get better and there will come a time where your can really relax and enjoy life and not have this black cloud hanging over you. I've had no contact with my evil relatives for six years now and life is SO much happier for us. You can find my threads about it all from back then if you want, MN was my only support and I was in a terrible state. I thought I would never feel normal. But I do.
Your daughters are still very very young. By protecting them now you are saving them years of misery (and I mean the relationship itself, the emotional blackmail and tension etc, let alone the possible abuse). One day you'll look back at this time and feel proud that you did the right thing when nobody else had the bollocks.
I actually believed my mother was going to try and kill either me or the children, at the time. Her behaviour was so extreme and frightening, nothing felt real. I think I was i shock, for an infeasibly long time. I actually feel sick thinking back to how terrified I was of her.
Now she's a memory and I'm not scared of anyone!
Actually I can relate to the needing to please her thing. For years that is what I wanted to do, like you failed to please (even though you didn't) as a child, you need to not fail again as an adult. You get stuck in the need of wanting her approval too.
You sound like a very strong and clever woman.I prosecute a lot of child sex offenders in court and represent them most of them are cunning beyond belief.Take care.
Dear Fan, I have mulled over this long and hard. I am so very sorry I doubted your story. I should have checked the dates etc. This is my reason, but not an excuse, for having been nasty to you. As you said these things can be triggering. again not an excuse. I am aware my previous contributions were unkind and unhelpful. I wish I could withdraw them. Mea culpa. I also understand that in the light of my confrontational post I have no right to contribute to this this. thread. please accept my apologies. I do know how very hard your position is. x
madame- that is really very gracious of you, I am sorry if you've found this thread triggering or upsetting. I really appreciate your apology. I haven't ignored it; I only checked the thread as I wanted to update.
Further updates- DH decided he did not want to contact them about the hotel room as it would cause world war three- not that he disagreed about the course of action, more that he would rather put off the fight with them and it is their loss not ours if they went ahead.
So Mil emailed and emailed and emailed. And eventually fil called at her instruction, DH told him it didn't work for us, and Fil moaned a bit but DH stayed strong and that was that.
Then Mil of course emailed DH a long guilt tripy email about how lonely she is/ wants our children/ ruining the wedding/ blah blah creepy blah. DH did not even read this email- he knew it would be manipulative so asked me to read it and delete- I think that shows good progress.
He was aware of his limitations in dealing with them, he didn't allow himself to be subjected to or swayed by emotional manipulation and we ended up with the outcome we wanted and the only person hurt is her.
The email from mil left me boiling with rage- it's strange I don't really let myself feel angry with her, contemptuous yes, but anger seems a bit of a luxury. I have to stay calm and collected and smart about her ifyswim. So I was shocked by how angry I am at her moaning that she didn't have a real relationship with the girls and lots of other cringe worthy things. Not just because it was creepy, but because it was so selfish and narcissistic and myopic.
Everytime I think about it I find my blood boiling- it's odd.
OP I think you are very brave and strong and anyone would be proud to have you as their mum! Best wishes to all your family.

Team Perry is in damage control mode, trying to clean up an Oops moment at Wednesday night's GOP debate when Texas Governor Rick Perry couldn't remember a key point of his presidential campaign.
The third agency of government I would do away with the education, the uh, the commerce and let's see. I can't the third one. I can't. Oops, said Perry.
Forgetfulness in geniuses is often considered a sign of brilliance. Einstein was famous for it.
Among the rest of us, senior moments are considered a sign of incompetence, aging, or disease.
Brain researchers said in Perry's case, it was none of those things.
In fact, there is a name for what happened to Perry.
The tip of the tongue experience, or state, said Dr. Alan Brown, memory researcher at SMU. It's where you know you have the information, but you just can't get it out right at the moment.
Dr. Brown knows all about the phenomenon because he researches the memory and even wrote a book on The Tip of the Tongue State.
He said stress temporarily causes part of the brain called the hippocampus to malfunction.
Researchers still haven't figured out why the brain goes haywire. Scientist point out the difficulty of trying to recreate a temporary memory lapse under laboratory conditions.But, Perry apparently showed classic signs at the debate in just the one word he couldn't recall.
He was trying to remember commerce, education and energy, Dr. Brown said. Well he had two e-words. He got the first e-word out, and it bullied the second e-word. And it sounds fairly simple. But if you think of when you get a tip of the tongue with another word blocking it, it's almost always the same first letter or the same first sound.
Dr. Brown said people who know they have trouble with instant recall, should study harder to reduce the risk of forgetting important information. Physical exercise also impacts memory function.
So perhaps, experts say, Perry might consider hitting the gym along with the books.

"Be careful how you speak to your children. One day it will become their inner voice." ~ Peggy O' Mara
Cloth diapering, babywearing and co-sleeping has been a way of life for almost a decade now
I haven't had the money or time to make it to my MW for a pap. Does anyone know where I can get more info about this. It lasts hours, (kinda like my labors!) I know some people said it was fairly short for them so I wonder if it is something to be worried about. I do have to say that it is nice to know when O is here though.
I'm a bit different because I don't have my period any longer since I've had a hysterectomy but I do still have my ovaries (I know I still ovulate). It's an all over vaginal pain that has been so bad I dropped to my knees a couple times! I did bring it up to my ob/gyn and she said that she wasn't sure but asked me to come in while I'm having the pain so that she can try and figure it out. Problem is that it doesn't happen on a set scheduale and normally only lasts for a day (although this time it lasted 2 days) I do remember having it a few times when I was having a cycle but it was always followed by a large clot(sorry if that's a bit gross) Now it's at least once or even twice a month If anyone knows for sure what this is, please let me know so that I can suggest it to my doctor! I would greatly appreciate it!
I know this thread is very old, but just wondering if anyone found out any information on this?
I have been aware of mittelschmerz (pain in lower abdomen on one side when ovulating) for many years now, but it has only been the last 6 months or so that I have had this additional pain during ovulation, similar to some of those described above. For me it is an all over aching in the vagina - heavy pressure - and honestly feels (but doesn't look) like a prolapse! I have also had a hysterectomy like one of the previous posters, but I still have my cervix, ovaries and a small amount of uterine tissue that allows me to have minor bleeding each month in addition to ovulation....wondering if it is somehow related to the hyst? Anyway, for me it lasts about a day and it is far more uncomfortable when standing up. Last night, however, I needed to get up from sleeping to take some advil.
Anyway, if anyone has an update or info it would be lovely to hear from you. I will mention at my next appointment, but that likely won't be for several months.

Chemical Engineering Co-Op
Major/Minor: Chemical Engineering
Employer: Appleton (Previously Appleton-Papers)
Location: Appleton WI
Duration: Spring 2012-Summer 2012
Graduating: May 2014
Personal Story: I applied for a bunch of internships and Co-op positions on Panther Career Link and Career Shift originally trying to find a summer position. Appleton called me after a little while and I signed on to participate in a Co-op program through the spring semester.
Appleton is a corporation that produces specially designed papers. When I first got this position I didn't understand how big an industry paper science was. Thankfully my advisors and coworkers helped me understand and learn what I needed to know. I had a lot of on the job training but my materials science and transport processes classes helped me out as well. There was a lot of transport involved with my co-op. I was in a giant production facility with pipes running everywhere and tanks of all kinds of materials. I lot of what I worked on was short term projects; I feel that those helped me learn my position faster.
The highlight of this co-op was all the wonderful people that I was around! They really made this experience fun and unforgettable. The Co-op program was well developed and I had really nice people around me. I can't wait to see them again when I return next summer.

Horse Racing: Rich history of previous July Cup winners retired to stud; BLOODSTOCK DESK.
THE winners of the Classic races have been well-traced at stud, but the July Cup has turned up more high-profile stallions than either the Guineas or the Derby in recent years.
Below, Amy Bennett and Nancy Sexton take a look at the stud history of horses who have won the prestigious sprint - which will form the highlight of the Newmarket July festival next week - over the past two decades.
2005 Pastoral Pursuits
(foaled 2001 colt Bahamian Bounty-Star, by Most Welcome)
The winner of six of ten starts, Pastoral Pursuits was retired with a minor leg injury three weeks after his famous victory. He now stands for pounds 6,000 alongside his sire at the National Stud.
2004 Frizzante
(99 m Efisio-Juliet Bravo, by Glow)
The first filly to land a July Cup since the outstanding Habibti in 1983, she foaled a colt by the 1986 July Cup winner Green Desert in March this year. A product of the potent Danzig line, responsible for nine of the last 20 winners, the colt looks a good bet to follow in the speedy footsteps of his parents.
2003 Oasis Dream
(00 c Green Desert-Hope, by Dancing Brave)
Retired to Banstead Manor, Oasis Dream sired a first foal crop that was the talk of the December Sales last year. His progeny accounted for four of the top ten prices, and his 19 foals brought an average price of 104,763gns from his pounds 25,000 fee.
2002 Continent
(97 g Lake Coniston-Krisia, by Kris)
He is the only gelding to land this race, and his sire is one of only two July Cup-winning sires to produce a winner of the same race in the last 20 years, the other being Green Desert, responsible for two winners.
2001 Mozart
(98 c Danehill-Victoria Cross, by Spectacular Bid)
Mozart's untimely death in 2002 seems even more tragic given the talent shown by his sole crop, now aged three. He was second by earnings in the list of leading British and Irish freshman sires, and his progeny were headed last season by the Middle Park Stakes winner Amadeus Wolf and this season by the Palace House Stakes winner Dandy Man, along with Grade 3 winner Stratham.
2000 Agnes World
(95 h Danzig-Mysteries, by Seattle Slew)
A crack sprinter in his native Japan and winner of the Prix de l'Abbaye in 1999, Agnes World got the better of a blanket finish at Newmarket. At stud in Japan, he also spent time at Dalham Hall. His oldest British crop, now three, has thus far proved moderate. He has enjoyed better success abroad, with Kazusa, a Listed winner in Japan, and Group 1-placed Australian juvenile Wonderful World.
1999 Stravinsky
(96 c Nureyev-Fire The Groom, by Blushing Groom)
Retired to Coolmore's Ashford Stud, Stravinsky has enjoyed great success in the southern hemisphere with multiple Group 1 winner Serenade Rose and top-class New Zealand juvenile Keeninsky He has produced some smart sprinting types at home, including the King's Stand runner-up Benbaun and Middle Park winner Balmont. Sold last year to stand at the Shizunai Stallion Station in Japan, he will once again shuttle to Cambridge Stud in New Zealand.
1998 Elnadim
(94 c Danzig-Elle Seule, by Exclusive Native)
Closely related to the 1993 winner Hamas, Elnadim earned his victory by defeating the biggest field ever assembled. Initially retired to Shadwell's Kentucky base in 2001, he was switched to Derrinstown Stud the following season and has remained there since, with his fee a consistent EUR7,000. His oldest progeny are four, and have yet to set the world alight. Villa Sciarra was a useful juvenile in Italy last year while Golden Acer was Listed-placed at two, and he is responsible for some smart performers in New Zealand.
1997 Compton Place
(94 c Indian Ridge-Nosey, by Nebbiolo)
Last year was something of a breakthrough in the stud career of the shock 50-1 winner Compton Place. Godfrey Street and Hunter Street provided him with a 1-2 in the Group 2 Flying Childers Stakes (with the latter also landing the Group 3 Cornwallis Stakes). He also has this season's dual Listed winner Angus Newz, and Boogie Street remains a consistent performer. Standing alongside Cadeaux Genereux, he was initially priced at pounds 3,500, now raised to pounds 7,000.
1996 Anabaa
(92 c Danzig-Balbonella, by Gay Mecene)
One of the few July Cup winners in recent years to sire top performers at longer trips, his stud fee of EUR45,000 reflects the calibre of his progeny. The Prix du Jockey-Club winner Anabaa Blue heads his list of stakes performers, along with several high-class performers who showed their best at up to a mile and a quarter, such as Martillo, Precision Ex Anabar and Rouvres.
1995 Lake Coniston
(91 c Bluebird-Persian Polly, by Persian Bold)
Initially retired to Coolmore, Lake Coniston sired the 2002 July Cup hero Continent and the smart juvenile Karasta in his first crops. Another consistent sire of minor winners, Lake Coniston was moved to Collin Stud for the 2002 season. The son of Bluebird now stands in South Africa where he has been well received.
1994 Owington
(91 c Green Desert-Old Domesday Book, by High Top)
The results from Owington's first and only crop of 37 foals suggest that he was a loss to the industry. On the same cross as successful sire Desert Style, Owington sired the tough Group 1 performer Gateman and the Lowther Stakes winner Jemima, while his crop of yearlings, conceived on a fee of pounds 7,500, reached a high of 170,000gns.
1993 Hamas
(89 c Danzig-Fall Aspen, by Pretense)
A son of the outstanding broodmare Fall Aspen, and therefore closely related to Elnadim, Hamas was retired to stand at Derrinstown Stud for Ir4,000gns. He has proved to be a consistent sire of minor winners headed by the King's Stand winner Mitcham. Hamas was moved to Haras des Chartreux for the 2000 season but was brought back to Britain for 2005. He stands now at Pitchall Stud under the Shadwell banner for pounds 1,500.
1992 Mr Brooks
(87 h Blazing Saddles-Double Finesse, by Double Jump)
Mr Brooks outbattled Pursuit Of Love to win the Newmarket dash by a head. He would later go on to take the Prix de l'Abbaye by two lengths, but, tragically, broke down in his next start, the Breeders' Cup Sprint.
1991 Polish Patriot
(88 c Danzig-Maria Waleska, by Filiberto)
Polish Patriot was initially retired to stand at Rathbarry Stud at a private fee. From a first crop of 62 two-year-olds, he came up with the Group 2 winner Gothenberg. He later sired the smart fillies Hasty Words and Polaire, but by 1996 he had been exported to Japan.
1990 Royal Academy
(87 c Nijinsky-Crimson Saint, by Crimson Satan)
Royal Academy has always been well supported at stud, whether in Europe, Australia or the US, and is consequently represented by a large quantity, and variety, of winners. He is capable of throwing high-class milers, such as Sleepytime and Val Royal, but he has also sired Group 1-winning sprinter Carmine Lake and the Irish St Leger winner Oscar Schindler. Royal Academy moved to Ashford in 1998 and currently stands for $15,000.
1989 Cadeaux Genereux
(85 c Young Generation-Smarten Up, by Sharpen Up)
Crowned the champion sprinter of 1989, Cadeaux Genereux has remained near the top of the sires' list several years running. Not only has he sired speedy sorts such as Bahamian Bounty, Hoh Magic and Embassy, but also the top-class milers Bijou d'Inde and Touch Of The Blues. His son Bahamian Bounty sired last year's winner Pastoral Pursuits. Cadaeux Genereux stands at Whitsbury Manor Stud for pounds 20,000.
1988 Soviet Star
(84 c Nureyev-Veruschka, by Venture VII)
The brilliant Soviet Star was retired to Dalham Hall in 1989 at a fee of pounds 30,000. His first crop yielded only four winners from six runners and, by the following year, he was sent to Japan. After his export, several high-class horses emerged, notably Ashkalani, Starborough, and Limpid, while his Australian crops have included the outstanding miler Starcraft, now at Cheveley Park Stud. Soviet Star returned to Ireland in 2000 and stands at Ballylinch Stud for EUR12,000.
1987 Ajdal
(84 c Northern Dancer-Native Partner, by Raise A Native)
Ajdal will go down in history as the winner of the July Cup who ran respectably in the Derby a month earlier. What this extraordinary feat meant from a breeding perspective would have been fascinating to witness, but, unfortunately, Ajdal died after only one season at Dalham Hall. From a crop of 35 foals, he left behind 19 winners including the Irish Champion Stakes winner Cezanne and the dams of Mark Of Esteem, Olden Times, Dilshaan and Daggers Drawn.
1986 Green Desert
(83 c Danzig-Foreign Courier, by Sir Ivor)
The first in a long line of Danzig-line horses to triumph, Green Desert is arguably the most influential sire to have come out of the race. The leading first-season sire of 1990, he went on to make his name as the sire of such speedsters as Owington, Sheikh Albadou and Oasis Dream, as well as top-class milers such as Desert Prince and Cape Cross. He stands at Shadwell Stud for pounds 50,000.
2003 winner Oasis Dream retired to Banstead Manor and his first crop were the talk of the December Sales last year

• Will insurance companies and other payors pay for the treatment of an HIV-infected person who tests positive for HIV, but whose CD4+ T cell count and/or viral load does not fall within the "official guidelines" of starting antiretroviral therapies?
• What can be done to promote access to HIV treatment for HIV-positive individuals with CD4+T cell counts greater than "official guidelines"?
The 15-member Committee on HIV Screening and Access to Care is composed of experts in the areas of HIV testing and care policy, HIV/AIDS ethics, epidemiology and biostatistics, HIV/AIDS clinical care, HIV/AIDS care services research, HIV care financing, state HIV/AIDS service programming and implementation, and the behavioral sciences (see Appendix A). The committee held its second public workshop, to explore the second part of its study charge, June 21–22, 2010, in Washington, DC. Invited experts discussed barriers and facilitators to HIV/AIDS care during the following five workshop sessions: (1) overview of clinical care and social service needs of persons with HIV/AIDS; (2) entry into and sustained HIV/AIDS care: the role of federal and state and private health insurance policies; (3) payment for treatment of earlier stage HIV infection; (4) the role of federal and state agencies in supporting integrated HIV care services; and (5) the impact of housing, mental health, and immigration policies on HIV/AIDS care access and retention (see agenda and biographical sketches of invited experts in Appendixes B and C, respectively).
This report is structured in response to the committee's charge and includes a review of the evidence, where available, from policy documents and the research literature on federal, state, and private health insurance policies as potential barriers or facilitators to improved access to HIV/AIDS care. The committee addresses the question of how federal and state agencies can provide more integrated HIV care services (question 2a) following what it felt was the broader question about policies that promote or inhibit clinical care services among agencies at the federal level, state level, or between state and federal agencies (question 2b).
The committee has attempted to provide evidence supporting the assertions made by workshop speakers, but in some instances there is no research addressing these issues. Testimony provided by workshop speakers should be interpreted as opinion by knowledgeable individuals, unless supported by relevant studies.

Man, it's a shame this is a Xbox One exclusive. I want this for the PC!
I haven't been up to date on whether DR3 was a timed exclusive or not.
Since Capcom doesn't have much money, it makes sense MS paid them to make DR3. This could mean it's an X1 exclusive only

It's good to see how big they've made it, and they say they can have thousands of zombies on the screen at once depending on the view, that's pretty crazy.
That pop-up, big deal. I didn't hear the guy give a specific command or anything so I don't know why it pop'd up but it was asking him if he wanted to sign-in.

I remember reading that if you don't have the Kinect plugged in they will prompt for controller input rather then Kinect. /not sure
I read that as well.
If you don't want to use Kinect, all of the relevant functions work with the controller.
The only features that don't are the voice commands of course.

Does this game play work the same as previous Dead Rising, where you have a time limit had have to keep going somewhere to get something then make it back with said object before time expires or else you die?
They allow both time limit and non-limited play modes apparently.
