Let's Talk Marriage!
By Rebecca Teti
Thursday: Marriage
(Join each day's Coffee Talk discussion: Mon: Parenting; Tues: Open Forum; Wed: NFP; Thu: Marriage; Fri: Education; Sat/Sun: Changing Roles)
Struggling in your marriage? Have some relationship advice to share? Have a marriage success story to share? Have a man/woman question? This weekly thread is the place to do it.
Come on in and join the conversation!
My husband acts jealous of me, puts me down to the kids. Rolls his eyes when I talk, leaves without kissing me goodbye when he is mad at me, blah blah blah. I try to ignore it but it is really taking its toll on me. Help, any advice!!
Patricia - I'm so sorry to hear about your marriage! When's the last time you went on a date?
Sunday with another couple. That's when he rolled his eyes at me.
Believe me there is nothing to b jealous of and I think it's his own insecurities but just the same hard to live with.
Any 10 year anniversary ideas. It is the end of May.
Patricia - yuck!! Sounds like his sense of respectfulness (towards you, but also maybe towards himself) has diminished for some reason. Hmmm... I would do two things right away: first, take all the steps you can to boost your own sense of respect for yourself. Whatever makes you feel a bit better about yourself: get your nails done, a new haircut, decluttering around the house, etc. Do something right away to put a little smile on your own face and a little bit of bounce back in your step! Then I would gently probe to see if there is anything making himself feel like less of a man in his own eyes. Is the boss failing to recognize your husband's skills on the job? Mid-winter nasty weather making it impossible for him to get out and do some outdoor activity that makes him feel refreshed? Etc. I would take the personal approach of making RESPECTFUL CONCERN (sympathy) towards him your 1st approach (along with a little step up in personal grooming. A little extra care for make up and hair on my part always seems to re-remind my husband that I exist, lol!) But #1, melt his hardness with your concern for & pride in him. Works in my marriage, anyway. It takes the wind out of his [irritated] sails. If this indirect approach doesn't work very fast (and sometimes it doesn't because he's so wrapped up in himself at the time), I usually start crying at some point. But I don't think of this as a fail. It is LOADS better than confrontation / "having a talk" with him because then *he* initiates a conversation instead of me being the one to say "hey, we need to talk about something." If the conversation was his idea, he's so much more open. Okay, that's what we do. Can you tell I have experience with this? Its one of my pet peeves.
Today is our anniversary. My parents were going to watch the kids so we could go out this evening, but they just phoned to say they are sick. I had no back-up plans. Ideas, anyone??? Its a little late to plan/cook a nice dinner (unless I buy ready-made stuff in the deli). But I'm drawling a blank. Other than foods, what's a nice way to celebrate at home with the little kids?
Family movie-night we rent a movie on cable make some popcorn. And snuggle on the couch!!
Thank you. Not today, ladies. For the advice!!
Hi Jen, you could do dinner in tonight if it is a necessity and reschedule your dinner out when you have babysitting.
@ Jay. For our 15th anniversary we spent a day together on a mini "staycation" of sorts. We were able to get a babysitter and spent the day doing things that we weren't able to easily do with kiddos in tow. We started the day with Mass. We toured a few museums and were able to look at the paintings, toured the botanical garden and enjoyed the flowers, took a paddle boat ride for two, and followed it up with a nice dinner for us. It was nice to be able to just spend the day together and not rush through the things we once were able to leisurely enjoy. Happy anniversary.
A little late for the anniversary date but for our 20th we stayed home and watched the video of our wedding with the kids. I wanted to do something more elaborate but it didn't work out and this is what my husband came up with at the last minute. Turned out...it was beautiful.
Questions if anyone is still reading...I have a couple friends who don't have great marriages. At least four completely different situations. I feel at this point that God is asking me to reach out to them more than just the sounding board/support I've been. A couple of them already feel so low...but I really think it's not completely the husbands fault. Do I point out their part? Two are more acquiantences so I don't have that strong relationship where I would feel right doing so. The other is close but lives across the country and is so alone I'm not sure if I should try to help or just listen. Any ideas? I've always appreciated it when I get advice (years ago a priest gave me the advise Not today, ladies gave and I am so grateful.) WWYD?
Re: Anniversaries My husband and I have been married for 31 years. We have 5 children. There have many anniversaries where we just did a candlelight dinner at home either because of budget constraints, one of the kids being sick, or just can't get a babysitter. Those are some of our best memories. Sometimes simple is better. Just saying. :)
To Ms. 31 years married.... what is your budget? I mean doesn't everyone want to just get away and celebrate each other? Then plan for it. I am shaking my head. Typical dinner out for two people is no more than $30 bucks. In Florida, $30 is not a lot of money. Neither is $180 for two nights out with meals. $12 bucks max is a bottle of wine. NO beer. Putting away $200 during the year is about a buck 82 a day. We have a bagel jar and use coupons and put the savings away for each other. And we set boundaries with kids that we are going to foster and the agency, and the inlaws and outlaws. God bless you and try it and have 4 back ups and their phone numbers. Make them sign that they know they must be reliable. Do it for each other.
@Jeanne, yes, plan for it is a great idea. Especially because once you have a plan, life always goes according to that plan. @RealMom4Life, I'd say your instinct is probably right with the acquaintances: it's just hard to navigate something so sensitive with someone you don't know as well (though Jen Fulwiler has a good Yaya story [IT AIN'T OUT THERE!] too, so if you could possibly be a Yaya-type, maybe you could get away with it, lol! (Though if you were that type, you'd not likely be asking us.) But for the people you do see often, could you ask them gently if they'd like your take or if they just want to vent? Or, if the venting seems to go on endlessly without any actual good being done, maybe you could (gently again) point out that the only person one can change is oneself. And then acknowledge the frustration with the dh, but give a few suggestions that you think could be helpful for them to do regardless of dh. You could be specific to their situation here or keep it general ("get counseling" "read the 5 Love Languages") depending on how receptive you think they'll be.
@Anna, thanks for the suggestions...nope...not the yaya type :) but you've suggested a good way of letting them know I can try to help if they want me to and leave it to them to tell me if they want it. As far as weddings...anniversaries...date nights...etc go I think it's important to do what is right for you and your dh. Everyone is different. My sister and her dh surprise each other by taking turns planning a night away on their anniversary every year. I think it's really neat. I have no desire to do it though. Neither my dh nor I enjoy going out, we didn't go out much while dating for 7 years and still don't enjoy it 20 years later (if we weren't out doing something like biking or skating we usually went to one of our homes...and we both lived with our parents). So forcing date night would be no fun. We get time together after the kiddos are in bed. Sometimes we stay up late talking. Tonight we went snowmobiling for an hour from our home. That's us. (BTW: sorry, didn't mean to be misleading about my desire for more elaborate 20 yr anniversary plans....I wanted a special dinner with just the 2 of us while the kids watched a movie in the other room ;) ) and our video....a friend of my parents owned a VHS camcorder...that was their gift to us. I think the challenge with online comments is the point doesn't always come across as intended...we are pretty simple people...and happily married.
arggg...not used to the "lack of formatting" most of my response wasn't meant to be directed to Anna. But this is so much better than when it was all down!
Thanks, all! I ended up buying a mini-cheese cake sampler at the grocery store and everyone (even the toddler) had a piece (extra fun was the fact that the sampler had four mini-slices in a different flavor, so the kids had fun choosing which flavor they wanted!) It was really nice, somehow... maybe because after the dinner plans (yes, plans, Jeanne!) fell through, my husband wasn't expecting anything at all.
Hello... Call him on it every time his behavior is disrespectful. Don't blame him though!! Just say that this behavior (I.e. eye rolling or whatever) hurts your feelings and is unacceptable. Say it WITHOUT anger!!! Then walk away. Be consistent. Don't change who you are. Remain kind and loving in all other usual ways. He may not change his behavior but at least you know you've stuck up for yourself. God said for our husbands to treat us with love and kindness...the foundation for this is respect!!! Good luck and God bless!!!

Before talking about marriage, we need to make sure that the bride is employed. Being a btech employee, getting a job is sometimes very difficult. It's a tedious task when we have low GPA and has low communication skills. No company will take care of us and we will be in mental pressure. That's when we will start looking at the online job portalsavailable in India hoping that some new companies would hire us. I would get married only if I have a good job. At least, that's the only viable way!

Skip to comments.Officer shot, suspect dead after car bursts into flames in Woodson Terrace
Posted on 02/27/2014 10:07:51 AM PST by Responsibility2nd
WOODSON TERRACE A man involved in a car crash in St. Louis County is dead after he began shooting at officers trying to save two women from the fiery wreckage, police say.
A police officer from the St. John Police Department was hit once, but his bulletproof vest saved him, police say. His injuries were not life-threatening.
Police returned fire. The suspect is dead, but police couldn't immediately say if the man died of gunshot wounds, the fire or injuries suffered in the crash. The dead man's name hasn't been released.
Two women survived the crash. One of the women got out on her own. Police pulled the other woman to safety from the back seat, said St. Louis County Police Officer Brian Schellman, whose department is handling the investigation.
The officers used a protective ballistics shield to fend off some of the flames to get to her, he said.
"They saved her life,"Schellman said.
No information was immediately available on the conditions of the women.
As this was going on, one of the Woodson Terrace officers saw a man inside the burning car holding a gun.
"He saw a guy in the car raise a gun up," Dowling said. "And he yelled 'gun,' which you are trained to do. As soon as he said it, shots are being fired."
"Many officers had fired shots," Dowling said.
Dowling said he has seen many crazy things in his career in law enforcement. This one is now added to the list: Officers trying to rescue people from a car crash, "And this is the thanks they get."
(Excerpt) Read more at stltoday.com ...
I would say the cop might actually be justified in shooting this guy.
Could be a case of road rage, extreme road rage....
"A police officer from the St. John Police Department was hit once, but his bulletproof vest saved him"
Hips and heads people!
Yeah, I'm going to have to go ahead and say that firing on officers to avoid having them pull you out of a burning car is an "interesting lifestyle choice". I am morbidly curious to know what prompted this "unique" strategy.
He was fired from ever breathing again, his lifetime membership to humanity was touched and I hope he burns in hell.
Car jacker is my first guess.
The shooting part is obviously stupid. I want to know about how the car caught fire so easily.
...along with the outside chance that a controlled substance was also a factor...
Yeah, Im going to have to go ahead and say that firing on officers to avoid having them pull you out of a burning car is an interesting lifestyle choice.
Don't judge. He was born that way.
"...along with the outside chance that a controlled substance was also a factor..."
Yes, that is the stock (but usually correct) answer for explaining "unique" behavior. He having committed some crime or other (which I'm sure he did) doesn't adequately explain his decision to die in a burning car rather than go to jail.
It was a cold night and he was just trying to warm himself in the flames of the car accident when along comes this officer dragging him out of the warm flames into the cold of the night.
LOL!! Good one.
I have learned to become a little skeptical of these stories...
Lots of cops on the scene...
Perpetrator raises gun presumably to kill the cops who are about to rescue him from being burned alive...
Guy in car points his gun and shoots a police officer while his windows are being riddled with bullets and while being ingulfed in flames...
Make sense yet???
Cop says 'gun' and a police barrage takes place...
I hate to be pessimistic but we are learning that things aren't always what they seem to be (or we are told to be) when it comes to the police...
I suspect we will never know for certain if the dead guy really had a gun...All it takes is for a cop to say 'gun' and your are dead...It could have been a cell phone or a banana...
I would also suspect the wounded cop got hit with 'friendly fire'...

I put a hold on The Graveyard Book yesterday as soon as I heard. I have not liked the last two winners but something :-) tells me this one will be a winner for me.
Where am I? I am in Toronto with Farley Mowat living on a boat with my father and mother in his memoir of his early years "Otherwise".
I am also in Oslo, Norway working on a couple of crimes with Harry Hole in "Nemesis" by Jo Nesbo.

My favorite is probably The Graveyard Book, but I loved Bridge to Terabithia, A Wrinkle in Time, Holes, Kira-Kira...actually most of the ones I've read. But I really haven't read that big a percentage of them.
I'm anxious to see what you think of Three Bags Full. My husband and I were both tempted to pick that one up last time we were at the book store, but ultimately didn't.

I'm in Seattle. I came here to do a simple job of transporting a fugitive from Seattle. It's turned into quite a mystery involving the now missing and possibly kidnapped fugitive, rare books from a small publishing company that may or may not exist, and a possible old mystery about the fire that destroyed that publishing company and the two brothers who owned it so many years ago.

I already had The Graveyard Book on hold so I hoping to get to it seen. I was reading Three Bags Full a few weeks ago, but had to return it to the library unfinished. It is on request so that I can finish it eventually.
Today I am in Italy. I am the young daughter of the local alchemist, and I am about to give birth to one of the most famous men in history (Signora da Vinci by Robin Maxwell).

text: WORCESTER, Mass., May 24, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- ThermoEnergy Corporation (OTCBB: TMEN) ( www.thermoenergy.com) said today that final rules for airport de-icing operations by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) provide an opportunity for the company to help airports protect the environment and save money. (Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20100816/CL50460LOGO ) The new rules, aimed at protecting the nation's water, call for tougher permitting for the collection of spent aircraft de-icing fluids (ADF) and for the removal of chemical oxygen demand (COD) agents such as propylene glycol. In addition, the new standards also call for the use of best available technology standards (BAT) at airports that directly discharge wastewater into U.S. waterways, and set a minimum COD effluent removal rate of 97%. ThermoEnergy's ADF Recovery System can meet and exceed BAT performance standards and recovery of glycol of 99% purity that meets ASTM standards for recovered glycol. This means that recovered glycol can be sold to recyclers and generate revenue to offset de-icing operational costs, which are expected to increase significantly at many airports due to the new EPA rules. "We can reduce the cost of de-icing operations by up to 50% by recycling the spent glycol in the aircraft de-icing fluid," said ThermoEnergy Chairman and CEO, Cary Bullock. "We look forward to providing airports and the environment with the benefits our technology." Inland Waters of Ohio has been successfully operating a ThermoEnergy ADF Recovery System for five years at Cleveland Hopkins International Airport. To view a video of that glycol recovery system on YouTube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KJjnmns2jnk&feature=channel&list=UL.

Iron Involved in LDL Oxidation
Researchers from the Baylor College of Medicine have discovered that iron is involved in the process of oxidation of low-density lipoproteins, also known as LDL. The oxydation of LDL and high levels of LDL-cholesterol in the bloodstream have been linked to artery damage known as atherosclerosis, also called the hardening of the arteries. Hardening of the arteries is the leading cause of cardiovascular disease, which includes coronary artery disease, heart attacks, strokes and other blood vessel diseases.
The Baylor researchers found that the LDL oxidation process utilized iron ions and produced kyurenines on the surface of the oxidized LDL particles. Kyurenines have been associated with a number of inflammatory and degenerative disorders, including Alzheimer's, dementia, malaria, Huntington's disease, cancer, ALS, depression and schizophrenia. The oxidation process also produced and increase in tryptophan. Imbalances between tryptophan and kyurenines have been seen in the above diseases.
The researchers also reviewed epidemiological research that suggested that iron serves as a catalyst in the progression of atherosclerosis.
LDL-cholesterol has been found more prevalent in diets higher in fried foods, trans-fats, red meats and saturated fats. Red meats also provide significant levels of iron.
While the research has not concluded that dietary iron stimulates higher levels of LDL-oxidation, it is apparent that the oxidation process requires iron.
Iron overload, or hemochromatosis, can cause iron deposits to form within various tissues and organs around the body. Iron deposits within the pancreas can shut down insulin production, producing diabetes. A built up of iron in heart tissue can produce arrhythmia and heart failure. The build up of iron in the liver produces cirrhosis and increases the risk of liver cancer. Now it could be hypothesized from this research that high iron levels may well increase LDL oxidation.

Exasperated management at the West End restaurant announced the ashtray amnesty after a total of 25,000 of the Q-shaped ashtrays went missing. On average, about 50 ashtrays have been "stolen" every week. In one case, two customers created a scene when the cost was added to their bill.
The restaurant has told diners no questions will be asked on the return of the ashtrays if they have been "inadvertently allowed" to "slip into your pockets". As well as a free glass of champagne, Quaglino's will make a £1 donation to the Elton John Aids Foundation.
To commemorate the anniversary customers can also buy the Conran-designed ashtray for £10, rising to £15 each for a gold-dipped limited edition of 2,000 with an engraving. The restaurant is not the first to offer an amnesty on stolen items. The Ritz once offered two nights in one of its suites, dinner for two and champagne breakfast for any guests who handed back their unique chamber pots.

Asparagus and Black Bean Salad
Veggies from the farmers market and brown rice and black beans make the colors in this salad POP! Bring to a family brunch, to work for lunch, or a light dinner.
Asparagus and Black Bean Salad
- 1/2 c brown rice
- 1/2 c dry black beans (or use canned-probably 1.5 cups)
- 1 bunch asparagus
- 3 radishes
- 3 spring onions
- 1/2 red bell pepper
- Dressing:
- Juice from half a lemon
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- fresh parsley, chopped
If using dry beans: soak overnight in cold water, and then cook for 2 hours.
Steam brown rice. I use an electric steamer and add 1 cup water into the bowl with the rice. Steam for 45 minutes and then let it sit for 10-15 minutes until all water gets absorbed. Transfer to your serving bowl. Steam asparagus and chop into bite size pieces and add to rice. Wash and chop the rest of the veggies and add to the bowl. Make dressing by combining all ingredients together in a bowl. When beans are done cooking, drain and rinse them well with cold water and add to bowl. Pour dressing over salad, mix well and serve. I also added 2 fresh basil leaves to my salad. Just because ;)

The term Latin America is correctly used when referring to those territories whose official or national languages come from Latin (namely Portuguese, Spanish, and French). Conversely, Anglo-America is used to refer to areas whose major languages are Germanic (namely English) such as Guyana, Suriname, Belize, Jamaica, and much of the West Indies. Similarly, areas where English is prominent are considered part of the Anglosphere. • Did you know: In Latin America, Iberia and some other parts of Europe, the Americas are often considered a single continent. Under such circumstances, North America is considered a subcontinent containing only Canada, U.S. and Mexico. REGIONS PHYSICAL GEOGRAPHY WHERE IN THE WORLD?

Tribes or bands of Paleo-Indians slowly pushed east and south from Asia to the Americas, hunting as they came. These migrations would have taken generations. Coastal Migration Theory - Some Paleo-Indians migrated to the Americas in small boats via a coastal route, since the immediate coast would not have been covered by the Cordillian Ice Sheet. Trans-Pacific Migration Theory Though there is some evidence of a trans-Pacific migration, it is also unlikely that large numbers arrived in the Americas via that route. The existence of Old World tropical parasites in Andean mummies is evidence that at least some trans-Pacific migrations did take place via a tropical ocean corridor.

NBCUniversal Tony Coelho Media Scholarship
Thanks to a generous contribution from NBCUniversal, the American Association of People with Disabilities (AAPD) is proud to offer the NBCUniversal Tony Coelho Media Scholarship.
In 2017 the NBCUniversal Tony Coelho Media Scholarship will offer eight (8) scholarships to undergraduate and graduate students with disabilities who are interested in pursuing a career in the communications, media, or entertainment industry. Each recipient will receive $5,625 to help cover the cost of education at their current college or university.
Apply for the 2017 NBCUniversal Tony Coelho Media Scholarship
Applications due by June 19, 2017
This scholarship has been named in honor of Tony Coelho, a former United States Representative from California and the primary author and sponsor of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
Coelho was elected to Congress in 1978 and served for six terms until 1989. During his terms, Coelho authored the original ADA, signed into law by President George H.W. Bush. By 1994, the U.S. Census Bureau reported 800,000 more people with severe disabilities were employed than when the ADA was first enacted, in large part thanks to the work of Coelho, his successors, and predecessors.
From 1994 to 2001, after being appointed by President Bill Clinton, Coelho served as Chairman of the President's Committee on Employment of People with Disabilities. He also worked as the Vice Chair of the National Task Force on Employment of Adults with Disabilities. In 1998, Clinton appointed Coelho as the United States Commissioner General at the 1998 World Expo in Portugal. Clinton also appointed Coelho as Co-Chair to the U.S. Census Monitoring Board, a position he held until his appointment as general chairman of the Gore Presidential Campaign.
From June 2009 to June 2011, Coelho served as the Chairman of AAPD.

Hudson has been brought in to replace Bruce Cutler, one of Freehill's two founding London partners, who has returned to Australia to take over from Graham Kelly as managing partner of the Sydney office.
A commercial law specialist, Hudson joined the 160-partner firm in 1969 and was made a partner in 1972. He worked as managing partner in Melbourne from 1988 to 1991 before becoming board chair and a member of the firm's national board.
He has advised major clients including the Pacific Dunlop Group and the move to London is expected to extend the firm's international contacts.
The London office, which also includes takeover and corporate finance partner Kevin Lewis and two solicitors, provides planning advice to corporations and legal advice on the structuring of transactions.
Work includes advising on income tax and stamp duty implications, and issues arising under Australian companies, securities, foreign investment and anti-trust laws.
Hudson says he chose London because "everyone needs a challenge in their career and the opportunity to go back into practice was tempting".
He says the firm has no plans to recruit here, but will draw on resources in Australia.
"I think that we've got the office to its optimum size and we don't have any plans to bring in other permanent people," says Hudson. "The appropriate configuration for an office determines itself as the work flows, but we think the size is about right."
"With the electronic system we now have, if we need back-up we have the ability to draw it out of Australia."
Freehills was the first Australian practice to receive approval from the Vietnamese Government to operate offices in Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi.

Hanson and Williams Holdings chose to blow themselves up via demergers. BTR was brought down by multiple profits warnings, leaving Invensys to emerge from the wreckage. For Tomkins, the other big deal-hungry conglomerate from the 1980s and 1990s, the end seems likely to arrive quietly – via a takeover by a Canadian combination of pension fund and private equity house.
The deal is not yet done but if the Canada Pension Plan Investment Board and Onex Corporation make good on their approach at 325p a share, or £2.9bn, they will probably succeed. Tomkins' trading update contained more reasons to be fearful in the short term (a slowdown in second-half trading) than cheerful (a strong first half). In those circumstances, UK pension funds tend to embrace anybody waving a 40% takeover premium.
But should Tomkins shareholders be bolder? Maybe they should. Their company has travelled a long way in the past decade. The buns (RHM) and guns (Smith & Wesson) followed Greg Hutchings out of the door in 2000 and today's business structure could almost be described as tight. Modern Tomkins is centred on Gates, the automotive and industrial parts group that was one of Hutchings's better buys. The big impairment and restructuring costs have been taken. Nor are there heavy borrowings.
Onex may claim to be a superior manager of industrial assets. But you suspect the real impetus for the approach is nothing more than the weakness of sterling and the willingness of the Canadians to crank up debt and leverage.
Given its history, Tomkins can hardly complain if it falls victim to a bidder with a greater appetite for risk. All the same, you'd hope its UK shareholders don't roll over meekly. That is not because Tomkins is a national treasure (it never was) but because the timing is terrible. Selling out because the pound is weak is a very poor message to send to UK plc. It is yet another way to discourage investment and innovation, which is the real problem with the UK's open-door takeover policy.

I was beginning to give up hope that this site would ever be updated! Thank you, PAN, for coming back from the (nearly) dead!
As for the card, we all know that every birthday marks one year closer to death. We just don't like to acknowledge that fact so boldly. I don't know how old the recipient is, but they've changed the guidelines for mammograms, so she might want to check that out before booking the appointment.
That is, if the card didn't put her so off the idea that she refuses to have anything to do with them.

A lot of women schedule their paps and mammograms during their birthday month as a reminder.
FYI, my doctor told me about the updated ages for mammograms and not to bother. I went to another doctor and scheduled one anyway (family history). Good thing I did- breast cancer at 40. If I would have stayed with that doctor, he probably would have me wait another 5 years.

Yeah, I always get a letter in the mail from, like, some cervical cancer thing reminding me* to get a pap smear around my birthday, lol.
(*Well, reminding me in their mind, my actual recommendations from my doctor is not the same.)

Well, I guess I'll see you guys again in March!
Yes, this was a passive-aggressive comment.

Please post many more passive-aggressive notes quickly, in case your candle burns out sooner than expected!

So, I've just had those bothersome bits removed.
Is it wrong of me to be amused that I basically have to treat myself as if I've given birth, what with the fact I am now permanently (and happily) incapable of doing such?

The irony is fucking delicious!
It is never wrong to appreciate it.

HAH, love it. Kind of harsh, but they're definitely not wrong!

Nothing like a dark letter around one's birthday reminding them they could die if they don't consider this important task.

That's really bad and in poor taste. One way of going out of business.

The Government's plans to end free legal aid are based on misinformation and guesswork and should be dropped, according to a report by the National Consumer Council.
In a detailed submission to the Government, published on Monday, the influential group says the plans will not necessarily save taxpayers' money.
The report warns that the costs of recovering contributions towards legal aid from people on very low incomes could be prohibitive, as could the cost of rehousing people who lose their homes through lack of legal advice.
The NCC is particularly concerned about proposals to make all legally-aided litigants pay a minimum contribution, to make unsuccessful litigants on legal aid liable for opponents' costs, and to make applicants with £100,000 of equity in property liable to use that equity to contribute towards the cost of their cases.
The report challenges claims that large numbers of weak and trivial cases are being funded by legal aid and calls on the Government to publish evidence that many of these cases escape the merits test. "Before adding new strands to the merits test, research should be undertaken to determine if the test itself is flawed or whether it is not being applied properly."
It also calls for evidence to back up claims in the White Paper on legal aid that the system unfairly pits legally-aided people with trivial cases against those who just miss the eligibility criteria. NCC research has shown legally-aided people are often up against a landlord, government agency, or insurer.

Plot: Ill Manors is not autobiographical, although it was party inspired by real events witnessed by the director and his friends. The film plots several days in the lives of several loosely linked characters in Forest Gate, Drew's own home neighborhood, close to East London's new Olympic Park. Aaron (Ahmed) is the downtrodden deputy to small-time drug dealer Ed (Ed Skrein), a relationship which becomes strained when the latter ruthlessly pimps out crack-addicted prostitute Michelle (Anouska Mond) to a string of sleazy clients to pay for his lost cellphone. This won't be for everyone. There's crackheads, prostitution, pedophiles, drugs and violence but there's also an incredible empathy for even the most horrible characters. There's also some good humour too. The acting's fantastic. With some faces you know and some you don't, each performance is bang on. Overall a deep, very well made film with terrific performances and a truly original style.
