When my sister was killed, we turned to Miller & Zois to fight for us. They stood by us every step of the way and we ended up getting more money than we asked for.- C.B.
Our Maryland car accident lawyers handle auto, truck and motorcycle collisions in the Baltimore-Washington area. We handle only serious injury claims.
Our law firm has had an amazing history of success in settling and taking auto accident cases to trial. The Maryland car accident attorneys at Miller & Zois have prevailed at trial in hundreds of traffic injury cases.
We have successfully settled thousands of cases for clients. We recovered over $15 million in compensation for victims, by settlement or trial in 2014. We are on pace for over $20 million in 2015. We simply get results for our clients.
Our clients come all over Maryland. Lawyers, doctors, law clerks, former jurors, expert witnesses, jurors and even insurance claim adjusters in Maryland turn to our law firm when they or someone they care for has been badly hurt. Look at our resumes, our reviews, the awards we have won, and more importantly, the results we achieve. Many believe we are the top car accident lawyers in Maryland. Sure, most cases settle. But we do not settle for less.
Every major insurance company in Maryland knows Miller & Zois is going to fight to the end, if our client is not being treated fairly. This, ironically, makes it easier for Miller & Zois' clients to reach an early settlement because the insurance companies know that their usual games will not work with us.
The information provided on this page will give you free information to help you better understand the trial value or settlement value of your accident case and what you need to know to maximize the value of your claim.How Can a Maryland Car Accident Lawyer Help You?
A Maryland attorney experienced in handling serious injury and wrongful death cases can help to make sure you receive every dollar you are entitled to and deserve for the harm that was done to you. Make no mistake. In serious injury and wrongful death cases, who your lawyer is means everything.
My prior lawyer was not able to get the insurance companies to offer a single penny in my case. Then my lawyer referred me to Ron and Laura. It was a long fight and they fought for me every step of the way. My case settled for $1.31 million."
How do we maximize the value of our clients' injury cases? By fighting for you, and with you, every step of the way. Our first goal is to get you a settlement quickly that fully compensates you for all of your economic losses and, more importantly, your pain and suffering. The insurance companies, of course, want to pay you nothing or next to nothing. How do we make insurance companies bend to our way of thinking on the appropriate compensation?
Again, getting an appropriate settlement without even filing a lawsuit will depend, in no small measure, on the reputation of your law firm. Your lawyer's ability to gather and present the necessary information to put your claim forward in the best possible light. These cases are won -- and the value of the case is stretched -- by your lawyer's ability to collect, analyze and present the fact of your case to the insurance company and, if necessary, the jury.
There are cases, usually the more serious injury and wrongful death cases with large insurance policies; where a lawsuit is going to be required if the victim wants to maximize the amount of money they will receive. In these cases, you want need a lawyer who is going to fight in the trenches for you... and has a history of success in those trenches (see sample verdicts below).

We talk about the issues that matter to our clients. The first thing you want to know when you are hurt is the value of your motor vehicle accident case and how it is calculated.
This is the most important question for our clients in any car crash case. We cannot give you an exact answer, of course. But we provided a ton of information, including average settlement and verdict data and sample details about cases we have settled or won at trial that you cannot find anywhere else online.
To maximize fair compensation, you need counsel who is willing to stand and fight. Negligent drivers are almost always represented by a lawyer from an insurance company who is paid to prevent the injured victim from receiving fair compensation for the injuries the victim has suffered, using arcane rules and laws to try to defeat your chance at a fair financial recovery.
The take home message: If you are badly hurt, you need a car accident attorney with skill, experience, and a reputation for success on your side. You need to have the best attorney to stand up for you.Our Law Firm: Why We Can Make a Difference
The partners at Miller & Zois used to work for insurance companies. We know the tricks that they expect will prevent you from recovering the damages to which you are entitled. Lawyers Weekly USA characterized the benefits of our training with the insurance companies when they wrote that as former defense counsel, Miller & Zois "knows the other side's playbook." In fact, we know the "playbook" for any insurance company that you will see in a car insurance claim in the Baltimore-Washington area:
You can get the inside information on all of these companies - and many more - here.
Why does this matter? Victims need an advocate who knows which punches these insurance companies will throw at you... and how to block them.
I went to one of the law firm's that advertise on television. They tried to accept a $32,000 offer on my behalf without even telling me. Six weeks after I hired Miller & Zois, my case settled for $165,000.00.
We know how to overcome the roadblocks these insurance companies throw up in order to give our clients the best chance of receiving the maximum possible recovery for their claim.
Ultimately, greedy insurance companies don't care about the fact that you are hurt or financially devastated. They don't mind being unfair and telling you that your health insurance is the only answer. Insurers just care about hanging on to their money and pretending that your tragedy is just a little mishap. To them, asking for more compensation than just your medical bills is just you trying to get a financial windfall. But we will tell you what we tell juries: pain, suffering and agony is the worst harm in any serious case. The amount of an accident victim's medical bills should not define a claim. What matters most is the sum of the human pain and suffering.
The Maryland car accident lawyers at Miller & Zois have represented auto crash victims for almost every imaginable mishap (and some you could not imagine) in a traffic collision, including:
- wrongful death
- spinal cord injuries,
- other back injuries,
- fractures,
- herniated discs,
- brain damage and other head trauma,
- surgery,
- rotator cuff tear,
- other permanent injuries
Our firm often represents the families of victims killed in fatal traffic crashes in Maryland. A disproportionate number of these wrongful death cases involve pedestrians and motorcycles who have little chance against motor vehicles.How to Select the Best Advocate for You
We handle cases in every single Maryland county and Baltimore City. To be successful, you have to know the jurisdiction well. You can get here an analysis of every venue in Maryland here.
If you have been seriously injured in a motorcycle, truck, or vehicular crash in Maryland, you need to find a car accident lawyer with the skills and ability to best maximize the value of your claim, either by settlement or trial. Before choosing an attorney, you should be looking at whether they have the credentials and experience to handle your case and get you the compensation you deserve, for what you have endured.
There are important questions to ask. Does the firm focus exclusively on tort cases and, specifically, serious motor vehicle crashes? Does the law firm have a history of seven figure verdicts and settlements in car and truck collision cases?
Does the firm have a history of getting verdicts at trial far in excess of the settlement offer made? Certainly, the insurance company fighting your accident claim reviews exactly who are the best Maryland car accident lawyers. Insurance companies factor in the lawyers' history of success at trial in calculating your settlement offer both before and after a lawsuit is filed.
Good, experienced counsel who focus on these types of cases can help you to get the compensation you deserve for your injuries. We believe we have the best accident lawyers in Maryland. We always tell perspective clients, "Don't just call us. Call a few Maryland attorneys and measure us against each other. Ask the lawyer you call if you don't hire him/her, ask which law firm would you hire?" Many more times than not, we think you are going to hear the name Miller & Zois.Contact Our Law Firm

Elizabeth Olsen made a big splash at this past year's Sundance Film Festival with her appearance in Martha Marcy May Marlene. Now, those of us who have trouble breathing in high altitudes can see what all the hub-bub was about.
In this trailer, the newly-discovered credible Olsen seems really solid in the role of a girl who returns to her family after spending time with a cult. And John Hawkes is effortlessly creepy as the cult leader. I bet he watches his people poop. Seems like the type.
The film hits theaters on October 7th and Cannes before that. I have to say, Olsen nails this role of a confused girl freaking out for no apparent reason. It's a flawless Mischa Barton impression.
Consider posting a comment.

MARSHFIELD — Sometimes an old home might be compared to a money pit.
But that wasnt the case for a young Marshfield couple with a passion for history. Upon entering the elegant home that had been in the family of Hamilton Roddis since 1914, Jian Khamo-Soskos and Athanasios Sass Soskos knew this was the house of their dreams.
When we were thinking about buying a house, we thought about an older home. And the first minute I came in this house, I thought this is me. It has such character, such history, says Jian.
Sass was equally smitten with the elegant Victorian designed house.
To start with, we love historic houses, Sass says, adding the home was structurally sound but needed renovation to make it suitable for a family with three young children.
Working in conjunction with Jians sister, Bahn Khamo-Abdelnour who is an architect, and local craftsmen skilled in home renovation, the couple gave the elegant icon of Marshfields history new life.
Roddis founded the Roddis Veneer Co. in 1897. The company eventually became Marshfield DoorSystems. His daughter, Augusta, was the last descendent living in Marshfield.
Jian and Sass viewed the renovation of the home as an opportunity to express their mutual passions for history, architecture and interior design.
This is a beautiful house. Yes, there were many challenges but well worth the work, says Jian.
Some of those challenges were adding air conditioning throughout the three-story house, fixing water damaged walls and changing all the water pipes and electric wiring.
I remember one of the men (on the carpentry team) was working on the stairs wood for weeks trying to fix all the scratches and damage, Jian says.
To maintain the historic integrity of the home, the couple studied materials about the era and scoured the Internet for fixtures and products they couldnt buy locally, says Jian.
Among the major renovations to the house was the addition of a back entrance, which included a mud room.
We have children, and there was no place for coats, boots, backpacks, says Jian, describing how the back door originally opened into a tiny kitchen.
Adding on to the kitchen to include a breakfast nook was part of the expansion that reflects the familys use of the area as a gathering place. The attached dining room was transformed into a family room.
For now, while the children are young, this is easier, says Jian about reversing the functions of the dining and living rooms.
An old leak had damaged sections of the elegant original wallpaper in the dining room as well as half of the wood paneled ceiling, she says.
Since it was impossible to replace the 100-year-old wallpaper, a local builder, Hank Zimmerman, suggested covering the damaged areas with new paneling carefully crafted to mimic the original paneling. The same technique was used on the ceiling, Jian says.
Zimmerman was among the numerous local contractors who worked on different phases of the homes renovation. Other businesses that contracted on the project were Tim Richardson of Design Flooring, House of Heating, Kabinet Konnection, Rices Capital Carpet, Creative Paint and Decorating, Gaffney Plumbing and Faber Electric.
We thank everyone who worked to make this project complete, says Jian.
The renovation project had its frenzied, crazy moments, but all the work was worth the end result, she says.
We worked on the house to make it functional for our family. Now we are in love with this house. We just feel we belong here, and this is home to us, Jian says.
Please remember the Roddis house is the familys home and respect their privacy.■

Clash of the Titans (2010)
8 comments:
- Stephen Gallagher said...
I was up for a Titans remake - I'm a 'Harryhausen forever' kind of guy, but the original always felt like second-division Harryhausen to me - and I was encouraged by the trailer. But watching the movie itself was like witnessing a landslide from close quarters... a spectacle for sure, but a big, loud, impressive, and generally aimless one.
Writing in another place, I suggested:
All the set-pieces were adequately done, but strung together it was like everything always turned into a battle. Perseus is a guy who can't go to the fridge for a bottle of milk without having to fight off a horde of something-or-other. To me it felt like something written by gamers, where the main character is an empty vessel for the player, and the story objectives only matter to the extent that they give you somewhere to be heading for while shit falls out of the sky or bursts through the walls.
It seems ironic that, with three millenia of free development to draw upon, it's the story points that get screwed up. The pairing of Perseus and Io has the feel of a late editorial fudge to reward the hero with the more striking actress.

Hi Stephen.
To me it felt like something written by gamers, where the main character is an empty vessel for the player, and the story objectives only matter to the extent that they give you somewhere to be heading for while shit falls out of the sky or bursts through the walls.
That's very well put, and it says something that's lurked within my mind about a lot of recent action films without quite solidifying. I hesitate to insult gamers - I mean, I'm one myself after a fashion - but then again, the pleasure of gaming is the self-direction it allows. You can write yourself, or your own characters, into the "story" you're playing. To infect film-making with such structural qualities however demeans both mediums. And yes, there's a lot of suggestion to me that the Perseus/Io thing was a late addition: Arterton is so rarely seen in the frame with some of the other actors, and the way her character enters and exits scenes on occasions, really smells of "editorial fudge". Still, as I've said, I got the mildest of kicks out of it.

"Neither the outright disaster I expected nor a good movie, Louis Leterrier's remake of the semi-classic 1980 Desmond Davis-helmed tale is yet another example of contemporary cinema's marvellous grasp on technical accomplishment and ever-waning capacity to tell a decent story."
I cite the very beginning of your review here to convey my precise feelings for this film. (I gave it a 3 of 5 rating) Yes, of course it's more technilogically superior than the 1981 film, but as you rightly note the earlier film had a broader scope and a stronger emotional connection. And yes, the comparative cyncicism of Harryhausen's film is seen here in large measure. It's a B movie indeed, harmless, and entertaining in a gulity pleasure sort of way, and I must say that Medussa set piece was irresistible.
Wonderfully engaging and exhaustive essay!

Hi, Sam. Good to see you as always.
Do you mean the Medusa set-piece or the Kraken? Because I thought this version's Medusa bit sucked hard. Otherwise we're in close agreement: "a B movie indeed, harmless, and entertaining in a gulity pleasure sort of way" covers my overall feeling exactly. And, to a certain extent, I have to respect it for that. There's just not that many solid B movies coming out of Hollywood.
- 28 August 2010 at 02:26
Oh no, the Kraken.
I wrote it up wrong!
Sorry about that.

I blame Joseph Campbell. One of the problems here could be that everyone in Hollywood's heard about The Hero's Journey and thinks of it as a roadmap, not an analysis, and has no perception of how it needs to be translated into character.
There was a Hallmark miniseries remake of Jason and the Argonauts with a whiny, passive Jason. His defining characteristic was one of monotonous self-doubt and he was constantly being urged by the Argonauts to step up to his destiny, when in any scenario of human truth they'd have eaten him and gone home.
Contrast that with the scene in the 1963 original, where wimpy Hylas wins the respect of all and the friendship of Hercules with a show of brains-over-brawn. Just thinking about it makes me want to dig the disc out and watch it again, knowing that it's going to lead us to Talos. That's how you do destiny.

That's a funny point, Stephen, and you may be right that an over-self-consciousness on filmmakers' part these days is problematic: everyone wants to act too sophisticated to give a dn about telling a story and yet will slavishly devote themselves to the most juvenile types of thrill imaginable. That said, I can't really blame Campbell: his ideas had a strong positive effect on the early Star Wars and Indiana Jones films as well as others in reinvigorating a sense of the purity of heroic storytelling. This sort of expedient storytelling to me smacks more of modern Hollywood's market-research-driven simultaneous urge to exploit yet display contempt for people who enjoy genre storytelling. After all, it's infected more kinds of film genre than just the fantasy-mythic variety. The cynical attempts to employ motifs without basic structure is readily apparent in contemporary rom-coms, for instance.

On a serious note though it reallys gets on my nerves when something like that happens and people pull out there phones and dont help. Heavy concrete bricks on people go help move them off the people dont sit there filming it
That's rather presumptuous. I say half.
What made me angry was the girl near the end in like cords or something with blonde hair trampling the people that fell.

Thank you for letting me know that I'm not the only person who thought that.
It may not have seemed like a long fall or anything, but someone could have landed wrong, or something could have happened that could have resulted in a back-or-neck injury, and everyone grabbing them and pulling them away would have only made it worse.
THAT BEING SAID... It seems like a lot of dramatization going on here...
Makes my legs tingly...
I hope those kids were okay.
That's funny. I'm sorry, I think it's funny as hell. Probably a lot of super scraped up people, but for the most part I'm sure everyone's fine. I wish I had seen it collapse!

Dr. Van T. Le's Ratings
We have had to practically beg Dr Van Le's office for assistance in getting completed forms for my Mother to be able to enter a nursing home. One of his staff, who says she's a nurse, outright lied and gave fraudulent information to a professional nurse who was helping our family get everything together. The professional nurse knew that the information Dr Van Le's "nurse" was giving out was inaccurate and a downright lie concerning tainted tuberculin vaccine and she told her so. At that point, the "nurse" in Dr. Le's office hung up the telephone. This was absurdly unprofessional and I'm hoping that the professional nurse really follows through by reporting Dr Le's office to the State Board of Nursing.

The American Legion's governing body today approved a resolution urging the U.S. Armed Forces to enforce a zero-tolerance policy toward sexual assault committed by and against members of the U.S. military. The resolution comes during a week in which the Air Force's chief of sexual assault prevention was arrested and charged with sexual battery – and the Pentagon reported that sexual assaults in the military are occurring at a rate of more than 70 per day.
"Even before these two incidents, The American Legion already had taken an active role in raising awareness about the issue of military sexual trauma," American Legion National Commander James E. Koutz said. "Nearly a year ago, Legion representatives testified before a House Committee on Veterans' Affairs Subcommittee that the Department of Veterans Affairs should adjudicate cases of military sexual trauma in the same manner as veterans suffering from combat trauma. The Legion has called for every VA facility to have a military sexual trauma coordinator on staff.
"But treatment is only half of the equation. The other half is prevention of the assault, and one way to prevent a crime is to make the punishment severe enough to deter that crime from being committed. The Department of Defense needs to send a message throughout its ranks that those who commit this crime will be dealt with severely."
Convening authorities in court-martial proceedings have the power to dismiss or set aside finding of guilty, as well as the power to reduce the degree of punishment issued by a judge or panel. Resolution 9, passed by the Legion's National Executive Committee in Indianapolis, urges Congress to pass legislation prohibiting convening authorities from dismissing or setting aside a finding of guilty – or reducing a finding of guilty to a lesser offense – in cases of sexual assault. The Legion also urges the Defense secretary to direct the Joint Chiefs of Staff to "take necessary measures to dismantle any military culture that condones, tolerates or otherwise allows sexual assault among servicemembers as an acceptable form of behavior."
Passage of the resolution came within days of Lt. Col. Jeffrey Krusinski – head of the Air Force's sexual assault prevention and response branch – was arrested and charged with sexual battery. He was relieved from his position.
The Pentagon's report also showed that the number of anonymous claims of sexual assault in the military grew from 19,000 in fiscal 2011 to 26,000 in 2012.
"The men and women wearing this nation's uniform are among the best and brightest our country has to offer," Koutz said. "But in those instances when a crime of this nature is committed by one servicemember against another, the uniform of the perpetrator is disgraced and justice must be served. There can be no gray areas. If you sexually assault a fellow servicemember, you will receive the punishment you deserve."
On Tuesday, DoD Secretary Chuck Hagel announced a revised sexual assault and prevention plan, as well as the implementation of measures specifically addressing accountability, command climate and victim advocacy.
"I applaud Secretary Hagel for responding quickly to this situation," Koutz said. "The safety and welfare of our men and women in uniform need to be the highest priority, and this new policy is a positive step in that direction."
In today's prevailing culture, there is a myth that sex is the most incredible experience for the vast majority of people and that is why sex with anyone, anywhere at anytime is always going to be a blissful, orgasmic experience. This myth is continually being sold to us, particularly in the cinema where sex is portrayed as an earth-shattering experience even when the two people having intercourse have only met a few minutes previously. The physical aspect of sex is all that is being portrayed in many of these encounters. The reality of the complex emotional and psychological processes that cause or dampen desire and orgasm are never referred to.
Much work has been done studying the reasons why many men and women have very unsatisfying sexual relationships. In the 1950s Masters and Johnson carried out many scientific and clinical studies of what causes desire in human beings. Masters and Johnson showed beyond doubt that sexual responses are as susceptible to conditioning as other animal or human behaviors. Sexual functioning in animals and humans is particularly easy to disrupt with punishing external stimuli, and so is especially vulnerable to learned inhibition or distortion.
In the 1970s therapists refined this view of sexual response, based on arousal and orgasm dysfunctions, to consider lack of desire as being a major factor when treating many sexual disorders. Shere Hite (1998) in The Hite Report on Female Sexuality, reported her ground-breaking research into male and female sexuality, based on thousands of detailed questionnaires completed by people in the US. Hite found that many women felt sex was not enjoyable because men usually spent so little time at foreplay and seemed not to understand a woman's need to be fully aroused before intercourse. Many men admitted that early stereotyping of how a real man must perform during sex contributed to much frustration and lack of pleasure in sexual relationships. The feeling that one is emotionally loved and cared about by a partner is also a prerequisite for most people to have a close and fulfilling sexual relationship.
I've read allot about this and I think it's really good.

OGDENSBURG - The Ogdensburg Public Library played host to an enlightening display of the night sky in their second floor auditorium Wednesday, giving children and parents a chance to take a guided tour of the heavens.
Bruce McClure, Norwood, directed the presentation, joking with his audience, Its hard to stay up at night to see the stars, before ushering them inside the 10-foot high inflatable planetarium. Once inside viewers were treated to a 360 degree display of the stars and Milky Way.
Mr. McClures tour included anecdotes about the constellations and educated children how to identify the North Star. As many star gazers know, the North Star can be found by following the line drawn by the outer rim of the Big Dipper. The Big Dipper, however, is not a constellation, but is part of Great Bear.
A writer with Earth Sky Radio, Mr. McClure puts on 15-20 planetarium shows a year in Northern New York with the inflatable display. Wednesdays event included two showings and was attended by approximately 30 people.

When you're running errands or joy riding a custom frame by a worthy builder, snagging a quality bag seems the next logical step.
We saw quite a few bags at NAHBS this year, from backpacks to frame bags ranging in material from lightweight synthetic to rugged quality leather. First up, the ILE Transfer-Race Day bag (pictured) is a lightweight bag that struck our eyes with crit season now upon us. It's made with an XPAC sailcloth, and is spec'd to hold gear for the race, and for the commute afterwards with 7 compartments for anything from helmets to dirty socks.

I told him they would call on Thanksgiving. He poo-pood me. Young OW called like I said. He got rid of her because I was right there. I fear next time she will call him when she thinks he is at work or I am asleep. (They had a lot of midnight talks during EA.) She knows when to call him to avoid me, they did it for months.
Young OW is pregnant with her current BF's baby. (My sis checks her MySpace for me) Old OW is the grandma-to-be. I know they want to chat with FWH and tell him their exciting news.
I'm nervous that one of the calls will get through to him when he is away from me and that he will chat with them and/or hide it from me. Even if he restates NC to them and hangs up, they will be on his mind again.
I just feel crappy having this hang over my head. He has been totally NC and so good to me since Sept. Still I feel crappy. I hate even thinking that those be-otches are reminiscing about last year with him.
I had the same exact problem during the holidays with OW #2 -- any holiday, birthday..."just to say Happy Thanksgiving, Merry Christmas, Happy Freaking Arbor Day" - any excuse to text him. It's annoying and it's a nasty trigger.
And I did not being poo-poohed either - that's discounting my feelings and I let FWH know I did not like it.
First of all, your WH does not have time for this dramafest going on with this mother/daughter thing. Has he been to IC/MC? I'm only asking because (in my case), that's what it took to get my FWH out of the fog. (You can read my profile if you want - it's kinda long, but a similar situation in that your WH has been bitten by the KISA bug! Mine was the same way..."Poor OW needs this fixed and doesn't have anyone to help and she has kids and blah blah frickedy blah...." I feel your pain honey.
But with the right tools, things can get better - I hate to push the counseling thing, but without it I think I would have divorced him.
Hugs to you,
I'm so wishing that they do send a middle of the night text to FWH. He is at home right now and sleeps in a different room from his phone charger. Since dday I've developed a habit of listening for the tell-tale ding and I hope to get to the text first. DELETE!
This whole KISA thing is so nerve wracking. On one hand, I don't have the aweful PA to deal with. On the other, he still insists it was just a friendship that was "a little too close" and he "wonders how they are doing." All in all, he has been great and he did dump them like a sack of potatoes when he saw what a raging pain I was in by the 3rd dday. I always wonder if his nice-guy ways are gonna put me in this situation again some day.
I'm the hall monitor now at our house. I live by the phrase Trust but Verify.
Me-44 BS
Him-44 WS
Married 18 yrs
Dday 8/25/07
two yr EA (maybe longer, maybe w/ more than one)
4 Kids 15,13,8,8
but they do text back and forth and maybe once or twice a month, (from the cell phone bill) I know they talk for about 40min
First thought, if you only know of the texts and calls from the cell bill, and he is not the one telling you about them, then he thinks he is hiding it from you. Any time he doesn't tell you about the text/call, he is ommitting the truth.
She has been married a few times, is now divorced
Not knowing why she is divorced, it still seems she has a different view of marriage as you. Looks like she thinks it's ok to switch partners now and then. Not good for your H.
Affairs, even EAs, forever change the nature of relationships WSs are allowed to have.
My FWH has an old school friend. They haven't talked for a decade but he remembers her fondly and if she called he would jump right into friendship with her again. I've know her for all the time I've known him and she is nice to me. She dated and was married to one of his friends and I always thought she was "safe" for him and us. Here is the kicker - I found out 2 months ago that he had sex with her 2 times. He never told me before. Old friends who are not old girlfriends could still have been sex-buddies. I won't accept her back into our lives ever again because they have crossed the sex line before and could do it easily again.
I'm so wishing that they do send a middle of the night text to FWH. He is at home right now and sleeps in a different room from his phone charger. Since dday I've developed a habit of listening for the tell-tale ding and I hope to get to the text first. DELETE!
Wow...I used to do the exact same thing. I cannot count how many texts I deleted and then she'd get all pissed off at him because he wasn't answering her. My DD (she was still living at home) would delete them too!
Something my counselor told me (and I'm sorry you do not have the means for it) was that it could happen again. So he needed to establish boundaries to ensure it did not. So now he has no female friends. It just cannot happen. Besides, we have enough going on in our lives and he doesn't have time for that. We have "couple" friends.
Any single friends are mutual friends (they come over or we go over as a couple - no one-on-one socializing).
You say the "terrible PA thing" - yes it is terrible, but I think (and this is JMHO) that the EAs were more devastating to me because of all of the emotional energy and love that he gave to someone else. I felt so abandoned and screwed over. So never discount your feelings because it was "just an EA" - you have every right to feel as you do and you're doing the right thing. Trust but verify.
I hate to be mean, but here I go. The older OW is/was injured and sick the last time he heard from them. It's a long term injury/incurable illness and I'm thinking she is too wrapped up in her own pain to tramp around. Whatever keeps her home is fine with me.
The younger OW must have been scared away when he told her NC last time. I continue to insist this is proof of her guilt. A regular friend would question NC and wonder why. This little b**** ran with her tail between her legs because she knew she was in my territory.
Doing the happy dance.
Still vigilant in case New Year's brings them out. Then I'm home free!
Get THIS - OW texted MY CELL PHONE on Christmas..."Merry Christmas to All..." (no, she didn't say, "and to all a good night)
Okaaaaaaaay. I didn't know she even had my number anymore. She didn't text FWH (cause when I saw my phone, I checked his right away - he was still in bed -no calls/texts or messages).
I deleted it. Does she think I'm impressed that she only contacted me?
That OW is definitely a couple fries short of a Happy Meal, KWIM?
That OW is definitely a couple fries short of a Happy Meal, KWIM?
Are you saying her hampster wheel is spinning but there is no hampster at home?
Maybe it's her way of trying to be "friends" with both of you to get info on your M.
FWH and I ran into her a couple of months ago - and it was kinda cool because first off, it didn't bother me...she was drunk, haggard looking and just as pathetic as always. Second, I relished in telling her that FWH and I are expecting our first grandbaby. Then he and I said bye-bye and got up to dance. She left. Boo hoo.
It's MY turn now!! My turn to feel confident, happy and loved. I like it!
Honey, I'm so sorry. God, this just happened to you and during the holidays no less (been there). I know how much it hurts. If (and only if) your WH is willing to do everything that you need him to do to help you heal, with time...it will get better.
He's still clearly in the fog. Very much so. If you're interested, read my profile - it was a long, arduous journey but we made it.
And please, please always remember, YOU DID NOTHING WRONG! So many times they will say, "you weren't there for me," "you haven't been affectionate," etc....and although there may be truth in how they felt, it does not justify an A of ANY kind.
Lots of hugs to you - please let us know how you're doing and feel free to PM me if you want.
OK...I'm done.
My H thought that once he said he wouldn't talk to them anymore I should get over it and be find also. He questioned whether I was dedicated to him?!
Your H has taken something very special, emotional intimacy and emotional energy (of which non of our husbands seem to have much to spare), and spent it outside of your marriage. He can't see that right now. You are not crazy.
Have you gotten ahold of all the phone records? Most cell companies have them for up to a year. Make sure you can verify on paper what he is saying.
I know how you were feeling when he left the house. I could barely let mine out of the same room as me. I was checking his on-line cell phone account every hour during the day to see who he was talking to.
You are in a terrible painful crazy time. Come talk some more. It helps.
I'll never again be supportive of the secrecy cell phone technology has given to married people. I told FWH that I had a bad feeling years ago when we went to separate phone #s and e-mail addresses. Just felt weird then. Now I know the damage it can do.
Are you at peace about him not talking to her anymore or do you suspect he has gone underground? How is R going?
I read an email he sent to one of his "girl" friends. At first he seemed to be just catching up w/ her. He had stopped talking or emailing her since dday. (this isnt OW, but one of his many "friends.") Anyway, they exchanged a few emails and now he is telling her to call him and for her number. Is he getting to comfortable again? Does he think he can go back to the way it was? He isnt hiding it from me. He knows I can get into his email, but yet he hasnt discussed it w/ me either. What the hell do I do? Im sorry, just upset.
Oh boy. I know the feeling...here we go again.
He's losing grip of the boundaries that were set. They need to be re-estblished. NOW. It's time to sit down with him and tell him what you saw and that you are not comfortable with it. There is no room for another woman in your M. It is fragile - and you are still in the healing process.
And this is NOT a 2x4...just a wake up call - if he's not telling you he's contacting other women for whatever reason - he's hiding. He's just in a comfort zone now where he thinks you trust him and you're not checking up on him. And I'm not saying he's in another A - I'm saying that he's standing atop the slippery slope and one gust of wind could send him right down it again. That's why it's so important to deal with this honestly and frankly and NOW.
I know how you feel - I had to go through it with FWH a few times before he finally got the message because he saw no harm in being friends with these women. I did and for damned good reason. I was not about to go through this hell again and I let him know.
Please keep us posted (or PM me if you want to) - and keep your head up. Nip this in the bud. Don't let it slip because you think he's going to think you are being overly jealous. You've been there done that. You know better.
Big hugs,
My question is when you have a spouse who had a EA and was on the computer as much as he was how do you ever not let the computer become a trigger for you in other relationships?
I have NO plans to look for someone else as I still love him even tho I dont like him or respect him, but I am also sure that with his lies about it as well as breaking our marraige vows I can not trust him ever again and I am pretty sure he will be wanting it all finalized ASAP. I am trying to get the seperation agreement done ASAP as that benefits me but then he gets to run the ball regarding the divorce.
I am just thinking that I will never be able to fully trust a man who spends LOTS of time on a computer/xbox instead of time with me.
Needless to say at 33 this isnt how I expected life to be, and I am grieving for my marraige, the thought of not having a child, of losing my home, and the future I thought we would have.
And sadly with all the stess of this it has made my health 10x worse and he could care less, his only concern is what are the bills and how are the dogs. I am just so mad that he gave up on me, and that is one of the many reasons I am working to get control back as I know I should not allow his words and thoughts to dictce what I think and do, and I need to become the strong independant woman I was 10 years ago, but dang it is hard.
Thanks for listending and if any one can help with my ? I am most thankful.

Contract Hire
Below are the different car finance products in the UK car finance market. For a private individual, the lowest APR for car finance is a cheap personal loan.
PCP - Personal Contract Plan*
PCP - Keep your monthly payments lower than a personal loan. Simply pay a deposit of your choice and balance the remainder over 24-48 Months with a pre-set guaranteed future value. At the end of the term you can either buy the car at this guaranteed future value (usually 40% of the original car value) or simply give it back.
More information on PCP and how to get a PCP quote.
Personal Loans
There are two types of Personal Loans available in the market today.
1) Personal unsecured loan - Available from your local bank or at much more competitive rates from online specialists.
2) Personal secured Loan - Similar to the above that can be obtained for a longer period and is secured against your home.
To apply for a Cheap Personal Loan up-to £15,000, enter the amount required on the right and click "Get A Rate".
Personal Contract Hire *
Personal Contract Hire, as its name suggests, is essentially the same as Contract Hire but for private individuals. If you want fixed cost motoring, or have opted out of a company car scheme then Personal Contract Hire could provide you with hassle free motoring without the residual value risks associated with traditional ownership.
VAT is not reclaimable by private individuals. Maintenance packages are usually available at an additional cost so that you can have totally fixed costs for your motoring.
More information on Contract Hire and how to get a Contract Hire quote.
Contract Hire *
- Lower risk for your business - The vehicle is returned at the end of the contract, avoiding any depreciation or disposal risks.
- Improved cash flow control - Rentals are fixed, therefore you are protected from fluctuations in interest rates.
- Better balance sheet - You don't own the vehicle, therefore your balance sheet ratios may be improved and the VAT is reflected in lower rental costs. Your business will benefit from writing down allowances/lower rentals.
- Reclaim VAT - If it is for private use the VAT recovery on the finance element is restricted to 50% (although a proportion may be charged to Profit and Loss). VAT recovery on the service element remains 100% regardless.
- Protect your capital budgets - Contract Hire rentals are treated as a revenue item, leaving your capital budgets unaffected.
- Rentals chargeable against taxable profits - Rentals are chargeable against your taxable profits so it may be possible to reduce your tax liability, (restrictions apply).
- Replacement vehicles - Peace of mind, in the event of accident or breakdown replacement vehicles are possible.

Lease purchase *
Similar to hire purchase, lease purchase offers greater flexibility, with repayments structured around your business's cash flow situation.
After the initial deposit, repayments are made monthly and a percentage of the original cost of the car can be deferred to the end of the agreement, as a 'balloon' payment. A 'balloon' payment is a final lump sum, which is based on the car's estimated future value. You can make the balloon payment and keep the car - or part exchange it, using any surplus amount after making the final repayment, towards a deposit on your next vehicle.

BOWLING GREEN, Ky. — Wade Gaynor and Jake Wells each hit home runs in the bottom of the third, accounting for all five runs in the frame as Western Kentucky University (31-12) bolted to an 11-3 lead and cruised to a 14-4 win over Austin Peay (18-26) in non-conference action on Tuesday night at Nick Denes Field. The win is the 24th in 26 home games this season for the Hilltoppers and snaps a five-game slide to the Governors.
Freshman Kes Carter hit his first career longball in the second inning and Gaynor added another home run in the eighth as WKU belted four on the night, their third highest single game total this season.
Coming back from an injury and seeing his first live action since March 22, pitcher Bryce Jenney made his first start of the season. The sophomore got off to a slow start as Austin Peay got three two-out RBI to jump out to a 3-0 advantage, but Jenney settled down to work a one-two-three second inning. Matt Kole's double down the right field line scored Greg Bachman and Jon Clinard to make it 2-0. Trey Lucas then singled home Kole to increase the margin to 3-0, but that would be all the damage the Governors would do.
Chad Cregar answered with an RBI triple off the wall in center to score Wade Gaynor from first and then one of two Austin Peay miscues on the night allowed Cregar to score off Matt Rice's ground ball to make it a 3-2 game after one complete inning.
Carter tied the game with a leadoff homer in the second while Matt Hightower tacked on a sacrifice fly and Rice and Cregar each had RBI singles, part of a four-run, five-hit inning as WKU pulled in front 6-3.
Wells smacked a two-run blast and Gaynor followed with a three-run shot as the Toppers blew the game open 11-3 with five in the third.
Seven of nine Hilltoppers had a hit while six scored runs and six drove in at least one RBI. Gaynor finished 3-for-4 with four RBI and a career-best five runs scored. It was the third time this season the slugger has had a multi-home run game. Cregar was 3-for-4 with three RBI and freshman Jared Andreoli went 3-for-6 with two runs scored from his leadoff spot. Rice, Wells, and Matt Payton each had two hits for WKU.
Lucas finished 3-for-4 to lead Austin Peay while Kole was 2-for-4 with two runs scored and two RBI. The duo combined for five of the team's six hits.
Five Topper relievers held Austin Peay to just one run on four hits, not walking a batter and fanning seven over the final 7.0 innings. Garrie Krueger (1-1) picked up his first win of the season working 1.1 innings of middle relief. In a non-save situation, JB Paxson struck out the side in the ninth.
Lucas Anderson (1-2) suffered the loss for the Governors after getting touched up for six runs, five earned, on seven hits and one walk, striking out two in 2.0 innings of work.
WKU improved to 21-3 when out hitting their opponent, 19-0 when scoring 10 or more runs, 23-1 when allowing five runs or less, and 20-1 when holding their foes to nine hits or less.
The Hilltoppers return to the diamond tomorrow when they travel to Nashville, Tenn. to face Lipscomb University at 6:00 PM.

CNET in Turmoil After Greg Sandoval Quits Over Editorial Interference
The week started off with a bang today with the resignation of reporter Greg Sandoval from CNET over allegations of editorial interference by corporate parent CBS. I'm not shocked, on either point.
"Sad to report that I've resigned from CNET. I no longer have confidence that CBS is committed to editorial independence," Greg tweeted this morning. "CNET wasn't honest about what occurred regarding Dish is unacceptable to me. We are supposed to be truth tellers."
So, what happened that caused him to so dramatically and publicly quit? CNET Reviews editors had voted to name Dish Network's Hopper HD DVR the "Best of CES" last week. Before the award was announced, CBS executives told them they couldn't give the award to Hopper because of litigation the two companies are in the middle of and to choose another winner instead. CNET announced that the Hopper was taken out of the running, but it didn't come out until later through leaks that it had actually won the award at first. Then CBS announced a new policy – that CNET would not review any products from companies that CBS is in active litigation with. CNET staff was horrified and it cast a pall over CES, the largest event for the company all year.
Apparently, CBS is worried that CNET reviews and the award could be used to undermine its litigation with Dish Network. The Hopper digital video recorder lets you automatically skip commercials in primetime TV on CBS and other major networks. The CBS lawsuit claims the feature infringes the copyrights of broadcasters.
CNET Reviews Editor-in-Chief Lindsey Turrentine wrote in a blog post today that she and other editors fought to keep Hopper the winner. "We were in "an impossible situation as journalists. The conflict of interest was real — a legal case can impact the bottom line of our company and introduce the possibility of bias — but the circumstances demanded more transparency and not hurried policy." She goes on: "I could have quit right then. Maybe I should have. I decided that the best thing for my team was to get through the day as best we could and to fight the fight from the other side. Every single member of the CNET Reviews team is a dedicated, ethical, passionate technology critic. If I abandoned them now, I would be abandoning the ship."
After Greg's resignation CBS issued this statement: "CBS has nothing but the highest regard for the editors and writers at CNET, and has managed that business with respect as part of its CBS Interactive division since it was acquired in 2008. This has been an isolated and unique incident in which a product that has been challenged as illegal, was removed from consideration for an award. The product in question is not only the subject of a lawsuit between Dish and CBS, but between Dish and nearly every other major media company as well. CBS has been consistent on this situation from the beginning, and, in terms of covering actual news, CNET maintains 100% editorial independence, and always will. We look forward to the site building on its reputation of good journalism in the years to come."
I'm sure that statement is prompting groans around the CNET newsroom. CBS' policy seriously hinders the ability of CNET journalists to do their jobs and will affect the company's credibility. No doubt. Reviewers will find popular products off the table if one or the other side has filed even a frivolous lawsuit against the other. CNET Reviews is the first place many people check before making purchases. If products just aren't included because of something so capricious as a lawsuit that severely reduces the value of the reviews site. This will affect brand perception and readers are already leaving, according to their comments on the site. And it makes you wonder how involved CBS corporate is with its other brands, like 60 Minutes.
Meanwhile, up until Greg quit, there had been no explanation from CNET about what happened, despite the uproar. And that may be all that is said on the matter. The newsroom will have to sit on its hands too and not cover this as a story because CBS execs are very selective in what news about CBS its own journalists can cover. In essence, the journalism at CNET is being compromised because CBS executives are so pissed about the Hopper threatening their revenue model. No journalist wants to work in that environment. As if morale weren't already low, Greg's quitting is a one-two blow for the close-knit newsroom.
I worked at CNET for seven years as a senior writer, before quitting to become director of content and media strategy at Bateman Group three months ago. I was burnt out from covering breaking news for 22 years and left because I wanted a change of career. I loved working at CNET, mostly because of the people and the strong sense of comradery. Some of my closest friends work there and Greg is like a brother to me. He's also one of the best reporters in the industry. I called him the "scoop-meister." He is relentless in going after a story. And he has an extraordinarily strong sense of justice and integrity. I know he will land at a job where he will be happy and thrive. And that place will be lucky to have him.
This isn't the first time that the editorial integrity of CNET has been questioned and led to resignations. Three Gamespot editors (Gamespot is owned by CNET) resigned after the dismissal of popular editor Jeff Gerstmann in 2007 before CBS bought CNET. Gerstmann had given a less-than-stellar rating to a game from Eidos Interactive, which had been a big advertiser for the site. CNET executives claimed the dismissal was not related to the review, but they didn't give a reason citing state law and corporate policy on disclosures about personnel departures. The newsroom was similarly outraged about that incident, and reporters were told not to write about it.
My heart goes out to my buddies at CNET. I know there is a lot of soul searching going on there right now. And it's a sad day for the beleaguered journalism industry, in general. It's a reminder of the dangers when the wall between editorial and corporate gets breached.
