Thread: Is it worth getting married
Is it worth getting married
I'm single and never been married, I have three kids.
Is it worth ever getting married and what does it mean to people.
Is it just a piece of paper or is there more to it.
I would love to get married but just kissing lots of frogs, but just like the idear of one day
I just got married nearly 3weeks ago to my longterm partner, we have kids together and have been together 8years. so had pretty much all the responsablities as a married couple, so i didn't think much would change relationchip wise when we did get married.
So far i'm right, i guess a lot of other things do change though. (legal wise ect)
But it just feel right, it makes us feel a stronger connection and we have always wanted to be husband and wife.
I wouldn't wanna not be married now i know how it feels to be married.
I don't know it's hard to explain it's just a feeling, it feels amazing to know your the love of your life's wife and mother of his children.
It's not just a piece of paper i guess if your not married it's hard to imagine how it is or how it feels to be married.
I got married nearly two years agao and we got married because we love each other, we want to commit to each other & this bit of paper was our legally binding document saying we are pretty much sure this is forever. We lived together for around 3 years before we got married & your life isn't any different after you get married but the feeling is different. It's kind of like being complete. We had a child a year after we were married & I wouldn't have had a baby (a planned one!) with him if we weren't married. We also never actually bought a house together until we were getting married because I thought I'm not tying up my life savings with someone who cant commit to me. If we can both walk away at any time without a thought then I want my money free to walk away too. I've been deeply in love with one or 2 boyfriends before my husband but although I was in love, happy & probably could have stayed with them forever I knew I never wanted to marry them & therefor I knew they weren't the ones for me.
Hi Alexis
I got married last June, we had only been together 2 and a half years but from day one we were absolutely besotted with each other, a lot of people said i was 'daft' because i was 19 and i fell pregnant after just six weeks together but we just knew we were in it for the long term. I moved in with him and his mum until we had a place of our own which was when i was 20 weeks pregnant.
My son is now 2.5 years old and i am 17 weeks pregnant with baby no2
For me marriage means security and makes us a real family unit with the same surname.
Now i am not saying people who are nor married can't have that it is just my personal opinion
I disagree being married makes you more a family!!
thats nonsence.
for me having different name to my kids didnt mean anything, i was as much as their mum as i am now i do have the same name as them.
I got married 3 years ago at the young age of 18, but I knew he was the one. People said I was crazy to tie myself down so young and why do it but I think why bother waiting? I want to be with him for the rest of my life, and I wanted a day to celebrate that with my family and friends. People are now commenting that we are such a strong couple and they want a relationship like ours, and I think that is because of the work we put into it. When we have a problem we feel more like we need to sort it out and get through it because of our vows, but I never did it for a piece of paper. I knew it wouldn't change our relationship much if at all, I did it to celebrate us and the love we have.
I think the ring on your finger reminds you that you have a duty to the other person to keep everything together, it is a unity like no other.
But as I did it so young and am still blissfully happy I may well be a bit biased!!
and its true that no matter what your name or matrial status a mum is a mum, a dad is a dad a family is a family.
im as much my kids mum dispite my matrial status and surname.
do i feel better i now have same name as my kids?? No cos it doesnt mean anything im still their mum.
I do like having same name as my husband though!
oh right so what you mean is YOUR not a real family unit if you arnt married? not everyone else?
but when you got married you already had a child/were pregnant.
Marriage to me is a commitment that I will always be my husbands wife in times of joy and sorrow. We were together for 11yrs and had our 2 boys before getting married. We have been married for 3 yrs now and have a little girl on the way . If we were to separate neither of us would wish to divorce as we believe you should only marry once. They are our views and how we feel and we are happy with our choices.
For us getting married was very important as we both still lived at home and only moved in together the day after our wedding!!
Getting married meant us making a huge commitment to each other before starting our family which was important. IT meant we had the same name and meant our future kids would be part of 'our' family as we all had the same name.
I personally wouldnt have had children unless i was married first so it was very important that we got married. It meant we were making a commitment to each other vowing to love, respect, cherish and be faithful to each other for as long as we live no matter what life throws at us.
I don't know why people make a big issue about the kids having the same name. am i missing something? are you more a mother to them if you same the same name?
Each to their own though and if people want to have kids before getting married then that's what's good for them, what I don't understand however are the couples who are "ready" to have kids but aren't ready to make a marriage commitment... If you can't commit to the person you are creating a child with how can you expect to commit to a child with them. They will forever be in your lives both of them.
Sorry bit of a tangent... I will shut up now
I wouldn't marry until I was over the age of 30 my choice as at seven yrs old my parents went through a very messy divorce both have since remarried. My hubby supported me in my choice out of love and respect.
Children are a much more permanent fixture than marriage vows are considered to be these days. Having done the wedding thing and gleaned nothing but pain in the heart and the wallet from the subsequent years, I fail to see what's in it for guys.
But I do understand why it's an attractive goal for women.
i dont care how people feel about their kids having same name, but i hate people who think cos their married theyre better than people who are not and try bring them down by claim they are more happier, stable, family unit ect ect cos they are married.
and i feel closer to my husband i dont have to explain my feeling towords my husband to some strangers but we had a fabulous relationchip before marriage and im glad that relationchip wise everything is the same and i dont feel more family unit, happier, stable ect ect as a married woman i felt that in first place.
just because sadly your marriage failed doesnt mean everyone has unhappy marriages.
i dont know why people feel the need to be so negitive about marriage just because it didnt work out for them. sorry to hear that but it works out for many people.
As i said marriage is different for each person.
Some people don't have kids, security, are as happy ect ect before marriage. and feel once they get married that all changes.
Some people like myself had all that beforehand and once they get married they still have that.
the only thing thats changed for me is how i feel and feels more right somehow now we are married.
But i wouldnt say were more stable, secure ect i believe you SHOULD have that beforehand. some people are together 6 months/1year/2years/3years before marriage some are alot longer.
whatever works for you.
I think everyone has a different idea about what marriage is. They are all equally valid. What works for one, won't work for another.
My dh and I were together for 9 years before we married. I wouldn't have planned to have children before we married, my choice. We had a little squabble when we decided to ttc because I hadn't changed my name and dh wanted everyone's name to be the same. Sorted in the end though.
Marriage doesn't change the day to day things nor does it change your commitment. It's more about being legally recognised as next of kin etc. I must admit though that I did feel like more of a grown up the first time 'my husband'

For me it's not important at all.
If I was to get married then it would just be for the actual wedding day which I can't afford right now.
I just see it as a piece of paper. My OH and I already have everything we would have if we had been marred already. It wouldn't change our feelings about one another and we're not very religious either.
I'm 21 with a 3 year old so going back 30 years I should imagine we'd have been married when i fell pregnant but it's not like that anymore which is a good thing in my opinion.
Financial security for life no matter what the woman's future actions. She can desert the marriage whenever she likes and still be assured of an income, custody of the children and sympathy from those around her.

I think your view is very slanted because of your experiences but please don't tarnish all women with the same brush, it is unfair.
Current stats are around 50:50 for marriages lasting "Until Death Do Us Part". Would you risk your access to your children, your house, your life savings and mental well being at the casino with such odds?
Red or Black? Spin the wheel. Good luck.
If people choose not to get married because they feel it is just a piece of paper or they can't afford it/timing isn't right etc that is what works for them and crack on.
Let me reiterate one more time so I'm not misunderstood again... Whether people get married or not makes no difference to how they parent and raise their children, it is each to their own. However if you are actively trying for a child with someone you are not ready to commit to, then I think you need to re-evaluate if you truly are ready or you just want a baby.
I've been with oh for 13years, had our home/mortgage for 9 and have dd (5) and ds (18mth) and were not married. It's not that we don't want to its that we haven't got the money to pay for it as we have been and still are renovating out house and would rather put the money into that. I hate when people say things like you're not a 'proper' family, he just wants the easy way out etc i know he loves me and I love him and we are happy with the way things are, and to be honest marriage isn't a big deal to me I know far too many people that have got divorced

I think it depends on the individuals concerned. For some, its just a piece of paper but for others its really important. Neither are right or wrong, its just how you feel personally.
Personally, i am not married. OH and i dont want to get married. For us, its just a piece of paper. It also doesnt bother me that i have a different surname to everyone else in the house, but if it did, i could change my name without getting married.
Its such an individual thing that nobody else can tell you you are right or wrong, irrespective what side of the marriage debate you are on.
We got married with two witnesses so I never understood why some say they can't afford to get married?
I would not live with a person so for me it was not an option. It is either all or nothing for me. Equally we did not consider having children until after we were married. So without marriage our children would not be here.
My wife has legal rights that do not come with living together and may need to be claimed via the courts or by making a will which probably costs as much as getting married in the first place.
On a recent heir hunter program a partner died and the OH was left with only owning half the home and they were searching for heirs that had never met the dead person to inherit his estate which seemed perverse but there you go.
Highly unlikely the dead person wanted this but without a marriage or provision this was the outcome.
Are we talking marriage or weddings here? Because lets face it the two are entirely different things.
Your opinions on not divorcing or how to behave during a divorce are commendable and most people share a similar mindset. However you're offering that point of view from the luxury of a happy marriage. I would suggest the thinking patterns of a person involved in the immediate aftermath of a failed marriage differ from this.
Oh my goodness. Reading this thread, some of you sound like married couples arguing haha.
I did it the way I wanted it, marriage and then I had my daughter, but that's just how I wanted it.
Each to their own.
wow, this thread has hit a number of nerves!
I'm just coming up to my first year wedding anniversary, my husband and I have been together for 8 and a half years and we had our DD 3 years ago and we are expecting our 2nd later in the year.
To us, the wedding was the ultimate commitment to each other. We already had a child and a house with a joint account etc but the wedding isn't about a bit of paper, its about the commitment in front of all the people who matter to us that we are committed to each other for life.
I know that a lot of people on here aren't going to like this but yes, being married made us more of a family unit. I didn't think it would make a difference if I'm honest, but in actual fact its made a huge impact and we are definitely stronger as a married couple.
As for divorcing I may well be in a happy marriage right here right now but I have witnessed the devastating effects a divorce can have on all parties, yes my views are formed from the eyes of a child something I will not put my children through, we may separate but we will never divorce. My husband is my best friend and yes we fall out at times but we both work hard to put things right. I could never withhold my children from the father either.
Graham you sound like the majority of devorsed people i know. bitter and negitive.
They think cos their marriage failed they can be bitter nasty and negitive about other peoples.
not everyone is unhappy so please keep your negitivity to yourself.
The main reason I got married was to have the same name as my children! We have been married two years now and my opinions have changed, I feel we're much closer, have a deeper connection, I feel a lot more secure than I use to be, I know we will be together for ever regardless what happens if needs be we will have council king what ever it takes! I meant my vowels (even tho I didn't realise quite how much until I was saying them)! And surprisingly people seem to have more respect and treat me differently (or that could be purely coinsodence as I'm getting older? Who knows x
If you are trying to imply that my opinion is void because I have only been married for 3 years then what about the other people on this thread married for less? Or is it simply my age that you decided to pick on me for? (you quoted my reply but not other people who have been married for a shorter length of time)
I dont have a clue what she means
could you explain to me what you mean by people treat you differently and more respect.
i think as soon as we got married the inlaws treated me differently even though they had treated me like crap for 8years before i got married and had their grandchildren. im confused
I personally just got married but was with my husband a long long time before tying the knot.
i think certain comments are out of turn and like some people are trying to bring people down?? theres no need for it.
Which vowels did you say? aeio or u?
However I no longer believe marriage is the fluffy wonderful idyll so many perceive it to be, due personal experiences. I'm not sure why you find that so hard to accept.
and yes you are tarring women with the same brush with some of your comments.
I can see how you have such a negitive bitter view towords marriage if your didn't work out, i understand that and sorry to hear it. but again you can't belittle everyone else marriages because your didn't work out.
maybe you should take some time out from the thread as your not helping anyone and your feelings are obviously pretty raw about it. maybe get some coucelling??
All I know is I have a man I have been with since 16 im now 31nearly 32, we have 3 children together and all as far as I know are happy, and hopefully always will be regardless of marrage, we have security and everything else a married couple have, maybe one day we will get married maybe we wont but as stated befour the only things that will change is my name that is all

I have no need for marriage. I have been married and saw that it doesn't necessarily keep people together, that it can be deeply flawed and is extremely easy to get out of.
I have been with my partner for 17 years with no intention of getting married.
I'm almost afraid to post on here. I am married though, and proud I am married to the father of my children. Not because we all have the same surname. Also, legally, now I get to put him as my next of kin and not my mother. We have a joint will. Everything else like the mortgage and joint account were the same before.
Blimey, you have clearly been very hurt.
I hate sweeping generalisations of both men and women so your comments grate on me. Grossly inaccurate, despite your own personal experiences.
My first marriage ended in divorce. I came out of it far worse of financially.
I married for the wrong reasons. He was a jerk and I didn't think I would ever do any better. I came out of it knowing that I would never put up with that kind of treatment ever again.
Marriage is not a fluffy wonderful idyll, if you go into it expecting that, then you are setting yourself up for failure. It is facing real life including ups and downs, stresses and strains, joys and heartbreaks, together.
To me, marriage is far more than a piece of paper, and it is definitely more than a wedding day. It is our commitment to each other and our kids, that we work through things together, we will stick together, and even when we disagree, we will find a way to make it work. We fell in love for many reasons and those reasons are as valid today as they were 20 years ago when we met. It does make us a stronger family unit.
I find this comment a little patronising to people who haven't been married long, to be honest.
It becomes wearing after a while, so when I am able to contribute to a thread offering a contrasting point of view, I wonder why I am suddenly the bad guy, even though I'm using a previously accepted format.
Deliberate double standards or honest ignorance of how one-sided and skewed this forum can be?
In all fairness to both Grahams, I know a few women who feel very bitter and negative towards all men because of past experiences. If you only have a negative experience of something then of course it will alter how you see said thing in the future, no matter what it is.
I never ever wanted to get married specially after the way my daughters father treated me he put me off men for life. I then met my Husband we were friends for a long time and we started to get feelings for each other and acted on them but took it very slowly. He proposed to me and I accepted and 2 years after getting together we got married it was and still is the best decision I ever made we have been married 3 years and are still going strong for me it didn't change much but it's so nice to be called his wife
Wow, some of you have clearly departed the bed from the wrong side today lol.
It seems there is a lot of bitterness in this post, but that is natural if you have been hurt by someone.
That alone can out people off marriage.
I think its different for everyone. Some people meet and spend their life with their partner without stepping foot down a aisle, some people marry theirs.
I would never of married my DH if i believed it was just a bit of paper as to me its alot more.
Using a brick of a mobile so if i have spelling mistakes dont jump the gun
For me personally, no. Together 14 years and 2 ds's. A relationship needs time, effort and love to succeed and will fail if both parties are not committed to it. This is true of whether the couple are married or they arent.
I also dont want anyone to have any sort of 'claim' to my pension so am protecting myself financially in that respect. Ive seen things turn very, very ugly from a financial stand point when married couples get divorced and I wouldnt want drawn into all that rubbish.
When it comes down to the law, marriage does have a very distinct legal standing that not even civil partnership matches. And I don't believe a form you can fill in will over rule the wishes of the usual next of kin. For organ donation for instance, a parent can over rule a girlfriend, but not a wife.
And there isnt a legal definition of next of kin. This causes a lot of issues, because people dont always realise that it has no legal meaning. But, on admission to hospital (as long as you are conscious obviously) you are asked who your next of kin is - i have always said my partner, not my parents. And as i am signing consent to say that, the hospital have to go with it. The card gives the patients wishes, should they not be able to say at time of admission.
Here is a link you may find interesting: -http://www.royalfree.nhs.uk/default.aspx?top_nav_id=1&tab_id=278
And as for organ donation, if you register as an organ donor (in scotland - it may be different in england), you are giving permission to donate - permission is not needed from next of kin/nearest relative. This is taken from the Organ donation site for scotland : -"We know that in most cases families will agree to donation if they knew that was their loved ones wish. If the family, or those closest to the person who has died, object to the donation when the person who has died has given their explicit permission, healthcare professionals will discuss the matter sensitively with them. They will be encouraged to accept the dead persons wishes and it will be made clear that they do not have the legal right to veto or overrule those wishes. There may, nevertheless, be cases where it would be inappropriate for donation to go ahead. - See more at: FAQs & Myths | Organ Donation Scotland "
Also in Scotland, (might not be the same as England) when it comes to donating organs (if the deceased has not expressed their wishes) the nearest relative comes into play. There is a set order for adults - this is taken from the legislation itsself: -
50 Nearest relative
(1) For the purposes of sections 7 and 30, the nearest relative is the person who immediately
before the adults death was
(a) the adults spouse or civil partner;
(b) living with the adult as husband or wife or in a relationship which had the
characteristics of the relationship between civil partners and had been so living for
a period of not less than 6 months (or if the adult was in hospital immediately
before death had been so living for such period when the adult was admitted to
(c) the adults child;
(d) the adults parent;
(e) the adults brother or sister;
(f) the adults grandparent;
(g) the adults grandchild;
(h) the adults uncle or aunt;
(i) the adults cousin;
(j) the adults niece or nephew;
(k) a friend of longstanding of the adult
My partner and I are "trying" to pls our wedding, everything just seems so expensive though. We've been together four and a half years, and have our beautiful son who's 21 months, he's the only one for me, and I really can't wait to be his wife(when we do manage to make s booking)

when you are married do you automatically become your spouces next of kin?
To me, marriage is a commitment that goes beyond just being girlfriend and boyfriend. I would never be with anyone who didn't want to marry me.
Children is the ultimate commitment, then marriage. That's not to say that those in long term relationships are not committed, of course they can be but marriage is more of a commitment legally and that is what I want. 100% commitment.
I don't care if people don't like my views. To me marriage is important and would never dream of having a child with someone who I wasn't willing to marry, or who didn't want to marry me.
I have been with my OH for almost 20 years, we have on DS together who is now 16.
We have been through some very tough times but we are still together. Our son actually has a learning disability which although mild is something that will effect him all his life. I know of many marriages that have ended for less than the situations we have been through.
I do not need a piece of paper and a ring to show my commitment.
Emotionally? maybe not so. But no one can argue with the fact that legally marriage is more of a commitment than boyfriend/girlfriend.
I wanted 100% emotional and LEGAL commitment
Congrats on a 20 year relationship that is awesome x

To me it means a big waste of money!
Louise haven't you only been married for 5 years? I read on here you got married in Florida whilst pregnant with your now 4 year old?
No point in it. I've never been married and would rather die than be a bride at a wedding.
To me it was logical as marriage is there (ie it is not just in my imagination it exists) so if I was good enough to be with then my boyfriend (now my husband) would have married me (he thought the same) and as I could not imagine any child saying 'mum and dad why did you get married instead of shacking up together" then, in part, we did it for any unborn children and no there was no need for us to be married to prove our love or anything airy fairy it is a fact that it is exists so we did it.
[QUOTE=Laura D(485);9690820]I'm almost afraid to post on here.
Me Too....(Let me take a chance and express my opinion/experience).
Been there, done that, didn't work for me/us. My Partner and I share 2 wonderful kids and believe it or not, not being married actually keeps us on our toes in our relationship together. Meanwhile I noticed that being married, I/him/we took each other too much for granted.
We are a family unit together - love - respect - and everything else that is a vital ingredient in a happy life. Marriage not for ME..
I choose to live within a society, NOT for the society.
People have all different reasons for marriage and believing in it's importance. Religion, tradition, love, security etc. Me personally don't really see it as being of huge importance to my partner and I. We've been together 11 years, have a beautiful 21 month old son and another baby on the way. We have, love, respect and trust and marriage to us would just be a nice gesture. A day to celebrate our love with friends and family.

WDYT of Emmeline
Emmeline is not my style however I do think it is a nice name. Would you call her by a nickname??
Emmeline Nicole
Emmeline Michelle
Emmeline Marie
Just a couple from the top of my head.
EDIT: and I do think that Emmeline goes well with your other kids names.
Denise :) Follow my blog here!
Mom to Four dancing Princesses!!!� Makenna (10), Rhiannon (7), Jorja (5) & Shallen (1)
Emmeline sounds like a very pretty name.
You can try:
Emmeline Arden
Emmeline Aerwyn
Emmeline Isla
Emmeline Carice
Emmeline Carys
Emmeline Lila
Emmeline Cora
Emmeline Octavia
Emmeline Charla
Emmeline Rose
"Follow your own path and let people talk." ~ Dante
Emmeline is okay, but I prefer Caroline or Evelyn. With Jamison Tyler and Garrett Cade I would suggest:
Caroline Grace
Evelyn Rose
Good luck!
She's crazy. and just when you think you've reached the bottom of her craziness, there's a crazy underground garage.
Emmeline is adorable! Emmeline Rachel, Emmeline Ruby, Emmeline Joy
No, really - it isn't "uniQuE" if it's in the Top 1000!
I don't have any middle name suggestions (do you have anyone you'd like to honor?) but I wanted to say that Emmeline is a beautiful name!
Anna Adele 3/2005, Sarah Elinor 5/2007, and Henry Lawrence 24 July 2009
Emmeline is my favorite name for a girl (we haven't found out yet!) but my husband doesn't like it :( We know middle name already, but haven't settled on a first, it's Claudia because it was his mother's name and she was killed in a car accident when he was 8. We also love Garrett if it's a boy!
I vote for Louise. My Emmy is Emmy Lou a lot of the time and I kinda wish her middle name was really Lou or Louise. Her full name is Emersen, but I wish I would have named her Emily or Emmeline (more directly after my grandma, Emily, than Emersen, which I wanted to be after my grandma since we were going more for the nn Emmy anyway).
If I had to name her today she'd probably be Emily Louise or maybe Emmeline Louise.

Gabe Carimi met with the media on Saturday morning at Halas Hall. The Wisconsin offensive tackle apologized for growing up a Packers fan.
"I've sinned and repented, so I'm good now," he joked. "I've seen the light."
Carimi believes he will fit in perfectly with offensive line coach Mike Tice and the Bears.
"Improvement is the only way to go," he said. "I have a hunger to try to succeed at whatever I do. That's the objective; to be the best Bear offensive lineman I can be."

I buy cypress oil whenever my kids have a cold [a few drops near their pillow]. Have tried various brands - but this was the best price I've seen. And the fragrance is as strong and efficient as the expensive brands I've used.

Chennai's batsmen led by MS Dhoni crashed RCB's Go Green game, the team's last game of the season at the M Chinnaswamy on Sunday, chasing a target of 155 successfully to win by 8 wickets.Chennai won the toss and decided to put the men in green today in to bat first. The home side rang in four changes as Rilee Rossouw came in for Chris Gayle, Shadab Jakati for Ashok Dinda, Ravi Rampaul for Muttiah Muralitharan and Vijay Zol for Abu Nechim.
For at least 5-6 years after making his international debut, West Indian Ravi Rampaul frequented the doctor's clinic more than a cricket field. His start-stop career has seen so many injuries so often that it is difficult to track each one of them.

George Nightingale
Every once in a very great while a truly remarkable horse comes into our lives. For the truly fortunate, this event may happen more than once. I consider myself to be one of the truly fortunate. Those of you familiar with the previous �George stories� may understand why.
In the few years I have known him, George has rescued a runaway, defended his home & herd from invaders, and become a dear and trusted friend. As is not uncommon for extraordinary individuals, I recently realised that I might have to expand my regard for George even more.
I was so enamored over George that when I learned his full brother, Kootenay Affair (Kooter) was available I quickly seized the opportunity. After a whirlwind trial period, I agreed to purchase Kooter and he came to live with us, and be reunited with his brother.
A lot happened during those first months after Kooter came to live with us, not the least of which was a frightening experience with colic. Just before leaving for work one morning, I looked out into the paddock to see Kooter laying down in front of a full manger of hay. I hopped over the fence & tried coaxing him up, only to have my urges refused. My first thoughts were of colic, and after walking him for a time I realised that he was not improving, so I called the vet.
Bob Moats came out right away, looked Kooter over & together we decided to try a shot of Banamine to ease his discomfort. I stayed with Kooter for a couple of hours afterwards, during which time he steadily improved. After seeing Kooter eating well, having good gut sounds and being active, I figured it was all right for me to go to work. Besides, Sherri was going to be home soon, and if he had any relapses she would be there to look after him.
Less than an hour had passed when my cellular phone rang; the urgency in Sherri�s voice was palpable. All she said was, �How fast can you get home?� All I said was, �Real fast� (my apologies to everyone else on the freeway that night)
In the short time I�d been at work, Kooter�s condition had deteriorated to the point that Sherri could no longer keep him from rolling & thrashing. She had called Bob out again, to which he responded with incredible speed, and he was concerned enough to ask that Kooter be brought up to his office. We loaded Kooter onto the trailer & broke a lot of laws heading for Clover Valley Veterinary Hospital.
Bob met me in the driveway with his arm gloved & ready. As soon as I walked Kooter off of the trailer, Bob did a speedy rectal examination & grimly announced that there where only two choices, and we had but a matter of minutes to choose. I couldn�t bare the thought of losing Kooter so soon, and waved off every consternation & caveat Bob offered. He simply nodded & said, �Then you�d best be on your way & let me get to work. I�ll call you the moment we have something conclusive to say.� Needless to say, there was little sleep in our household that night.
A little after 2 AM, the phone wrenched me from an uneasy slumber. I picked up the receiver and heard Bob�s exhausted voice on the other end saying, �We�ve corrected the twisted intestine. He�s resting now and should be up & around by daybreak.� Daybreak that morning found me parked in front of the Clover Valley Veterinary Clinic.
Kooter had to remain in post-operative care for another week; initially to ensure his recovery from the operation itself, and later to monitor the condition of his incision, water & feed intake, and overall condition. By the end of that week, we were all ready for some serious rest! Not the least of which, was George. During such emergencies, we often forget about the stress level of the remaining �family� members. What I had not counted on however was the degree of George�s perception. The first morning I went out to feed George, I found him standing in one corner of the paddock, staring off into space. I chalked this up to him not understanding where his brother had gone. Subsequent mornings found George continuing to stare off into the distance. I watched him each day, knowing that something prompted his vigil, but missing the power of that which is often lost on us. It wasn�t until the fifth day that a faint glimmer of understanding crept in.
On the Friday morning I let George out, and as usual he crossed the paddock to stand motionless in the same corner as the previous 4 days. On a crazy whim, I headed up to the house and grabbed a compass & a map. I realised that every morning George was staring not just into the distance; but to precisely the same point in space every time. I walked quietly up behind George, as he stood transfixed. I took a quick bead from the dock of his tail & between his alert ears, and then consulted the map with my bearing. The �hunch� I had had before walking out there did little to prepare me for the shock of realisation that sped through me at that moment. For the past 5 days, George had been looking precisely in the direction of the Clover Valley Veterinary Clinic, over 11 miles away. I re-checked the bearings twice again, only to find that if any mistake were possible it was most likely mine. George�s gaze was fixed within 1 degree of a true �as the crow flies� heading for where his brother was.
We trailered Kooter back home later that day, and arrived amidst a cacophony of whinnies & snorts from George. I went out a short time later to check on the boys, and walked around the corner of the barn to see that George had grabbed everything that wasn�t nailed own (and a few things that were!) and deposited them neatly in front of Kooter�s stall door. Either he was so glad to have his brother back he was giving him presents; or he figured that if he piled enough stuff in front of the door we couldn�t take him away again.
Kooter was in for a minimum of 60 days� stall rest, to allow for his incisions to heal properly. During this time we left George�s stall door open 24/7, as well as the gates into the paddock, arena & back pasture; in other words, George had free run of the entire property for over two months. During that entire time George never left his brother�s side. When we fed him, George would flip his hay out into the aisle, so he could eat while �guarding� his brother. Even his �bathroom breaks� were abbreviated, never taken more than a few yards away, and always in full view of Kooter.
We could only hope for such devotion, and love.

Summary: The Marauders are having their first Divination lesson, and they quickly realize what a waste of time it is. In order to liven things up, Siriusmakes a few predictions without the aid of tea leaves. Obviously, he's no Seer, because there's no way James and Lily will ever get married, Peter will become an evil minion, or Remus will fall for Sirius' baby cousin... right?
The Wrong Werewolf by A House Elf
Rated: 1st-2nd Years [Reviews - 32]
Summary: It wasn't really that exotic. There were no "damsels in distress" or deadly dangerous dragons lurking school grounds. Voldemort didn't use Veritaserum to make Lily admit she was madly in love with James. James didn't offer to become a Death Eater to save Lily.
But there was a werewolf.
Trick or Treat by Hallie Black
Rated: 6th-7th Years [Reviews - 42]

Rated: 3rd-5th Years [Reviews - 428]

What do his strange dreams mean? And most importantly, how will he survive in a school for incurably criminal boys?
This is primarily a mystery, with a bit of shippiness thrown in here and there. Of course, if I told you WHO is involved in the shippiness, that would ruin part of the mystery, wouldnt it?
This story takes place immediately after OotP (and thus disregards HBP).

She finds a letter in a bottle that gives her strength to go on. Who was this boy that wrote to her? Could there possibly be someone out there that loved her so deeply?
This is the prequel to my other story, Message in a Bottle. It isn't essential that you read that one first, but it might be helpful.
Cliché Nation by just_the_contrary
Rated: 3rd-5th Years [Reviews - 329]
Summary: A compilation of the most commonly used Harry Potter clichés in the fandom. Features Angsty!Harry, Sweet!Draco, Head Dorms, sudden romances in the forms of Ron/Hermione, Harry/Ginny and of course, Draco/Hermione, because what's a cliché without them?

Rated: 6th-7th Years [Reviews - 62]

The laws of attraction are confusing and dangerous though and without her consent she begins to fall for him over the last two years of school.
Fifth Chapter, Padfoot or Evans? is being written. I'd like a few more reviews before I submit it, but it isn't a requirement, of course. Just a wish by me. As for those who have already reviewed - thank you so much! I'm glad to have you all! *hugs* Never fear, for chapter five is drawing near!

Indonesian domestic helpers working in Hong Kong are often victims of rights violations that include physical and verbal abuse, as well as restrictions on their freedom of movement, by their employers and recruitment agencies, according to a report by London-based Amnesty International.
In the report, the human rights group also criticized the governments of Indonesia and Hong Kong for not adequately monitoring recruitment and placement agencies, which it claims exploit the mostly female migrants by using deception and coercion to recruit them to work in situations that violate their human and labor rights.

MANILA–Philippine President Benigno Aquino III reiterated he isn't apologizing to the families of the eight Hong Kong residents who were killed in a hostage taking three years ago, revisiting a tense issue that pits him against the Manila mayor and its city council.
"At the end of the day, we submit that the act of one individual should not be construed as the act of the entire nation," Mr. Aquino said, referring to the dismissed police officer who hijacked a bus of tourists in Hong Kong from Manila in 2010, leading to a botched rescue attempt in which nine people died, including the hostage taker. "And when I apologize, then I am apologizing on behalf of the sin visited by the entire country on these Hong Kong residents, and I don't think that is appropriate at this time." Read More »
MANILA–Typhoon Usagi, the strongest tropical cyclone to hit the Philippines since 2010, left at least two people dead and two missing as it pounded the Southeast Asian country's northernmost islands especially hard before moving on toward Hong Kong on Sunday.
Usagi delivered winds with gusts of up to 250 kilometers per hour on Saturday, when it passed through the northern tip of the main island of Luzon. Separately, further south, Manila was not in the full path but still got hit with heavy rain.
"Manila Bay is calmer today than it was yesterday…. It's still raining and windy," Mon Lozano, a central bank officer, said Sunday of his observation from a window in his room at the Sofitel, a hotel in Manila at the Cultural Center complex whose main restaurant facing the bay was damaged by a storm surge a few years ago.
The National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council said two passengers drowned and two others were missing in a mishap on Friday tied to Usagi. By then, Usagi was creating huge swells in waters off northwestern Luzon island, where the boat capsized. Boat travel became increasingly dangerous. Read More »
Rich Robison, a managing director at an international bank in Singapore, thought he had escaped suffocating pollution by moving to the Southeast Asian financial hub.
A 12-year veteran of Hong Kong, Mr. Robison moved to Singapore in 2008 out of worry that rising air pollution was aggravating his daughter's asthma. He decided he'd had enough of Hong Kong after several doctors' visits and treatment with a ventilator, so he asked his then-employer, Goldman Sachs, to relocate his family, which it did.
"Since we've been here, she's never had an episode," Mr. Robison said. When Singapore's smog levels reached hazardous levels this week, "all I could think was, I'm so glad Sophie's not here," Mr. Robison said of his daughter, who is on holiday in the U.S. Read More »
Hong Kong has climbed past Singapore both in number of millionaires and their total pool of wealth, fueled partly by the tear in Asian stock markets in 2012, according to a new report. Read More »

The Philippine Azkals, the country's national football team, finally ended its winless record against Hong Kong Tuesday night when it eked out a 1-0 victory in an officially sanctioned friendly game that had unruly moments by fans in the stands.
Heading into the encounter at Hong Kong's Mong Kok Stadium, both teams were unbeaten in 2013, and each side have been preparing for upcoming competitions. Hong Kong is gearing up for its Asian Cup qualifying match in October against the United Arab Emirates, while the Azkals are getting ready for next year's AFC Challenge Cup–a biennial competition for Asia's emerging football nations.

Private banks in Singapore and Hong Kong will capture an ever-larger share of global wealth held offshore as the ranks of the super-rich in Asia grow faster than elsewhere in the world, according to a report from the Boston Consulting group.
Offshore wealth rose by 6.1% globally to $8.5 trillion last year, the new BCG study said, and will continue to grow apace as high net worth people seek to protect their wealth by stashing it where there is political stability, a low tax burden and banking expertise.
Over the next five years, the rich in the Asia Pacific region will generate another $1.4 trillion to add to that total, compared to $0.5 trillion from Latin America and $0.5 trillion from the Middle East and Africa, according to BCG projections. Read More »
Christie's kicks off its annual Hong Kong spring sales at the city's Convention Centre on Saturday, and as usual, Chinese works dominate the offerings. But interest in Southeast Asian art is on the rise, with Southeast Asian collectors snapping up their region's works. Meanwhile, buyers from other parts of Asia are capitalizing on the category's relatively modest price tags, driving auction sales upward. Read More »
Philippine Volcanoes rugby player Austin Dacanay credits Manila fans with helping his team put up a formidable fight in its Asian 5 Nations match Saturday. But, in the end, the Hong Kong Dragons spewed more fire than the Volcanoes, winning 59-20.
"Every day we improve, and tonight the learning curve multiplied again," Mr. Dacanay said after the loss. "Our performance was proof of our talent waiting to erupt," Dacanay, who is nicknamed "lolo," or grandpa, because at 39 he is the oldest on the Philippines team.
"We will continue to work hard for ourselves, each other, and our people to bring home a win in the next two weeks," Mr. Dacanay added, pointing out that the game was a vast improvement over the April 20 contest against Japan, in which the Volcanoes lost 0-121. Read More »

The good, the bad and the so-so policy moves and economic swings that impacted Indonesia this week.
The head of one of Indonesia's largest investment companies, Peter Sondakh says he's selling off stakes in his palm oil plantation in the hope of moving toward processing, refining and trading.
E-commerce sites and mobile apps are drawing on data they've collected from users to better understand how and when people shop during the Islamic holy month. Here's a look at some of what they've discovered.
All that burning rubbish in Indonesia may be taking its toll, with nearly a quarter of people surveyed in a recent poll saying waste management was the most prominent environmental issue in the country.
Indonesia needs to build up its power and transportation capacity to create jobs and grow the economy in the coming years – and it's relying on a lot of foreign investment to do so.

A photographic portfolio of Tibetan nuns performing a rarely seen ancient spiritual ritual at a monastery in Tibet.
Mary Ellen McCourt has been a photographer for nearly 3o years. For the past 15 years she has also been a graphic artist and book designer. Mary Ellen's work is deeply influenced by her study and practice of Tibetan Bon Buddhism which emphasizes the healing potential of pure awareness in every moment of our lives. For Mary Ellen, still photography is the medium for revealing the quiet beauty and radiance in each passing moment. She hopes that her books will give viewers the opportunity to go deeper into the experience of each image at their own rhythm and pace. These are the first of many books Mary Ellen plans to offer that will reflect her recent pilgrimages to Tibet and Kathmandu as well as her life in the beautiful Hudson River Valley in New York.

Fantasy daily notes for Sept. 5
Updated: September 5, 2012, 10:52 AM ETBy Brian Gramling, Special to ESPN.com | Research notes by ESPN Stats & Info
Weatherproof games: Orioles-Blue Jays, Brewers-Marlins, Yankees-Rays and Red Sox-Mariners
Mets-Cardinals are expected to get rained on in the middle innings of their day game, but the storms will pass rather quickly. Indians-Tigers and Rockies-Braves could experience bookend thunderstorms in their night games, but it's possible that both venues could stay dry through the completion of their matchups. Staying rain-free will not happen in Cubs-Nationals as thunderstorms linger over ...

Vincenzo Nason Murano Art Glass Penguin Figurine Smoke & Crystal Original Label Hand Blown
I am once again pleased to be able to offer you a piece of Vincenzo Nason Murano Glass in their fabulous crystal encased smoke glass combination.
This piece is a stunning Penguin figurine, at least I think it's a penguin, I suppose the exact bird could be subject to interpretation. This piece measures 5 1/4" tall and 1 3/8" in diameter at the base. It bears it's original label at the front which reads "V. Nason & Co. Murano Italy"
In excellent condition this piece has no chips or cracks and just two pinpoint sized barely perceptible nicks on the breast of the bird. It would make a fabulous gift or addition to ones collection.

Twice a month, Pixel Boost guides you through the hacks, tricks, and mods you'll need to run a classic PC game on Windows 7/8. Each guide comes with a free side of hi-res screenshots from the LPC celebrating the graphics of PC gaming's past. This week: inside the twisted mind of Clive Barker.
If you consult horror master Clive Barker on a video game story, it turns out you get something very,
Clive Barker's Undying carries the distinction as one of the first games to carve an expression of terrified horror in my face from start to end. I swore I'd never revisit it, but it's on GOG now for $6, an absolute steal for one of the best and truly frightful first-person survival horror games out there.
When unloading a shotgunful of death or crushing a shrunken Pig Cop alien beneath your manly boots in Duke Nukem, you can always expect to hear a clever follow-up—quips that defined one of classic PC gaming's most memorable characters. Jon St. John, owner of the deep baritone fueling Duke's wisecracks, has reprised his role in a franchise spanning nearly 15 games, but he doesn't necessarily share

A device that combines multiple input peripherals into one
You never know what you'll find when browsing Kickstarter, the crowdfunding site that's helped bring Oculus Rift , Ouya , and Leisure Suit Larry Reloaded to fruition. We've also seen a handful of peripherals skate through Kickstarter -- items like the Stinky Footboard Controller and Paradise Desk . More recently, we stumbled upon a unique peripheral called King's Assembly , and with 51 days still to go, it's already blown past its funding goal.
King's Assembly is a computer mouse that's "full of awesome," according to the project's Kickstarter title. More precisely, it's an input peripheral that attempts to consolidate a high-precision laser mouse, full mechanical keyboard, and analog joystick. Part of the reason for its existence is to help gamers save time from having to go from the mouse to the keyboard.
"We challenged ourselves to find a way to move a mouse quickly and accurately without using fingers or thumbs. We designed a contoured palm rest that comfortably anchors your palm and enables you to drive the mouse without moving a single digit," developer Solid Art Labs explains . "The palm rest is designed to allow unobstructed movement of your fingers and thumb while still providing enough leverage in all directions to maintain precise mouse control."
There are 30 keys for each hand, each outfitted with Cherry ML keyswitches (the team is investigating the use of Cherry MX) for tactile feedback and silent operation. It has a QWERTY layout by default, though you can switch to DVORAK and other setups with the click of a button.
You have the option of owning King's Assembly for just one hand, either left ("Strategist") or right ("Elementist"), or you can use two and interconnect them with a 4-wire cable. Each side houses a 9800 optical laser sensor, and if you use both, the motion from each laser will be added together and show up as a single pointer input on the screen.
The project has already surpassed its $20,000 funding goal. At $50,000, the team will refine the design, and at $100,000, it will incorporate "souped-up programming." At $150,000 there will be a styling package with backlighting, and should the project reach $250,000 or more, it will go wireless.
Give it a glance and let us know in the comments section what you think!

I don't want to say with absolute certainty, but I believe this to be a female Common Blue?
To borrow a term from our birding friends, it's a 'Little Brown job'!
Hmm. Very difficult without a picture of the underside. Female Common Blues have orange markings on the upper side of the wings.http://www.lepiforum.de/cgi-bin/lepiwiki.pl?Fotouebersicht_Polyommatini_Weibchen_4 (unfortunately, there's no english version of the page, but the pictures are quite good). I guess, it's another "Blue".
I honestly wouldn't know! I never saw any blue ones around - but as you point out, there's no markings on the top of this lass' wings. Hmmm.
There are some dark spots on the wings and the butterfly is quite large. I've asked one of my Flickr contacts for help. He knows a lot about this kind of butterflies.
So, it's most likely a Ringlet (Aphantopus hyperantus).
Are you sure? Ringlets usually rest with folded wings (is this correct english?). They also have quite distinct spots on their wings. See also my observation of a ringlet from July, 31 st. So I tend to say your observation is more likely Aricia eumedon. See also the following link:
It's a ringlet for sure...they don't always have distinct spots especially not males. You can see the spots of this one if you zoom in. Small blue is a different shape, has different patterned body and antennae, and is a navy blue rather than brown, among other differences.
I see them with wings open often so it isn't unusual for this species.
Is this observation inappropriate, spam, or offensive? Flag this observation
If you think this observation is inaccurate, please add an ID, participate in the quality assessment above, or describe the inaccuracy in a comment.

TENFACE is a designed serviced residence/hotel in the heart of Bangkok. Our name is inspired from Tosakan, the 10-faced giant from The Ramayana. We welcome short and long stay guests. Hanging out at our Wanara Eatery or Sita Bar is also very chilling.
Missed their great main door (metal door). Now need to use lift to go to lobby. Still a nice place to stay at.
Jazz fans and music fans should go to Smiles jazz bar. Five minutes walk towards Ploenchit BTS and it's on the left. Great food with good cocktails, wine, and beer. Wonderful live music!
Friendly service - probably the best service I've ever had. And buy 1 get 1 free during happy hour at the bar. Nice!
Request a room on the backside. Otherwise you might get disturbed during the night by container trains passing nearby and the sound of the crossing signal. Apart from that: great hotel, comfort beds.
Excellent rooms. Good food and service. Staff friendly but speaks poor English. Bad location.
To get taxi, remember to request the meter. 245bht to DMK airport at 5am. Hotel front desk ask me to pay fixed price which is 500 bath. I insist on the meter.
If I'm here in Bangkok, I'll stay at this hotel again. Staff are friendly also will recommend places to visit and hotel get there.
Unique design concept, spacious room and love the living room area. Great space to hang out with friends. Thanks for the complimentary day pass BTS card.
Spacious rooms, awesome decor and services. Don't underestimate the looooong pool also.
Sita Bar,So Cool!! Recommended for you enjoy party. If you need the quiet and peaceful place for relaxing, this place is another kind of the meaning of the "relaxing". Let's go party at Here!!
Inside or outside, having diner will be a great moment. Rooms are beautiful the hotel is not far from phloem chit station. Pasta there are delicious, so are cocktails.
Great chic hotel with attention to detail. Will surely come again

Within a year the button was on many many blogs around the world and we displayed more than 100 million buttons in one month. We track follower stats for over 180 million users now.
