By Colleen Medlar Parental Advisory and 2 Live Crew Parents Music Resource Center In May 1985, Tipper Gore created the Parents Music Resource Center, a non-profit, tax-exempt group.
Composed of several wives of senators, congressmen, cabinet officials and notable businessmen; and support form the 700 club minister Pat Robinson.
Their goal was to "inform and educate" parents of what their children might be exposed too.
In 1989, 2 Live Crew released "As Nasty As They Wanna Be"
It was the first CD to display the Parental Advisory label for Explicit Content Parental Advisory "The Parental Advisory is a notice to consumers that recordings identified by this logo may contain strong language or depictions of violence, sex or substance abuse. Parental discretion is advised. " Though the PMRC made many cases through much of the 80's and 90's, they didn't last very long with the changing times.
Parental Advisory labels still exist its very hard to keep track who is buying the music with many sales being digital.

Duke Aiona Eyes the Governorship
Former Lieutenant Governor James "Duke" Aiona" told a Christian radio station Friday that he's "seriously" considering running for governor this year. Aiona, who's a Republican, says he won't make a final decision or an official announcement until he has a better feel from voters and his organization is set up. Aiona served two terms as lieutenant governor, but lost to Neil Abercrombie in the race for Governor in 2010.

Okay, this has been driving me nuts for a few months now, I have been wanting to start building the helmet on my own...basically i think the overall shape of the helmet looks not to hard to tackle...its just the dome part of it... What has people been using to do their own.
I mean I have looked everywhere for a actual helmet that matches the shape as close as possible...but still really haven't picked up anything as nothing has been to my likings. The closet that I have seen is a batter helmet, large of course.. and if you wear it backwards, where the visor type thing is at the back of your head, it comes pretty close...I just don't want to stop there...without seeing what there is out there, especially the size needing to be big, as close to the MSH as possible.
Does anyone have like a pull or something from something that they could share with us all. thanks in advance.

<v PINE RIVER JOURNAL VOLUME X NUMBER 44 THE PINE RIVER JOURNAL, PINERIVER. CASS COUNTY, MINNESOTA FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 13, 1948 w V Out of the . . Waste Basket by C. M. A. ,/ The I'ine River Volunteer Fire Department last Saturday put into effect a very sensible plan when they loosed the first blast from the fire alarm siren which hereafter will be heard exactly at twelve o'clock noon on every day of the week with the exception ot Sunday. * * a: * The daily signal will be one bias! and will serve a two-fold purpose; It will test the proper functioning: of the siren, and insure the same in the event an emergency does arise, and .also acquaint citizens with the fact /^tbat they had better ''Come ancl get it, before it gets cold." a? a;: * * Everyone has a real dread of fire, and too often homes have been lost clue to the unchecked ravaging of this red-tongued monster who suddenly breaks forth after lying concealed in smoldering fury for several hours. It is in eventualities of this nature that the element of time often spells the difference between extinguishing the blaze before too much damage has been done and headway gained by the fire, or seeing: possessions gained during: a lifetime of work, go up in smoke. T- S * * Speaking of the time element and its importance, brings to mind an arrangement usually practiced in towns of comparable size to the village of Pine River, whereby an alarm switch is installed at the switchboard of the local telephone ottice, making: it possible for the operator on duty to sound the alarm instantly upon receiving: information of a fire in progress. *: :*; * * This arrangement would be ideally suited for use in Pine Kiver, insofar as the village limits are quite distant from the fire siren, plus the fact that the majority of citizens are no dm'!it unacquainted with the location of the switch controlling the operation of the alarm. * * c *-. More time, that all important factor where fire is concerned, could be gained by installation of a telephone in the quarters housing the fire fighting equipment, making it possible for the firemen to check immediately with the switchboard operator for the exact location of the blaze and thus eliminate rhe confusion usually present due to the many unconfirmed rumors voiced by the well-meaning early arrivals at the scene. * 3 $ Jr. Fire constitutes one of the greatest hazards known to life and property of the American citizen, and swift, sure action in the event of any fire can materially reduce the amount of loss suffered through the inroads of this unwelcome invader of the American home. * * a;= * Col. Miller's story, presently appearing in the Minneapolis Morning Tribune under the title, "Bataan Un- censored." provides a great deal of interesting material for the consideration of those whose conception of tlie difficulties encountered during such an operation, is limited to the information released during the war, and which, due to the emergency, was strictly censored. * * :;•• $ It is an old adage that 'truth will out,' ancl in this instance Col. Miller proved to be the man possessing the moral courage needed for disclosing the facts which are for the first time being released for the public' knowledge. * * * * That his statements concerning the inefficiency of many general staff officers are true, will not be doubted by many who have from personal experience, gained such knowledge to their own sorrow. * * :r. * It does not follow, however, that all general staff officers were incompetent, and one must be careful to recognize this fact as Co. Miller points out during the course of his disclosure. * * V * The motive behind his writing the article is a worthy one and it is to be hoped that the public will dedicate themselves to furthering the project— making America safe by" keeping America strong! " Uown memory Lane —TEN YEARS AGO— February 10, 1938 Funeral services were held this week for Patsy Kyllingstad from the Lutheran Church, who passed away Monday after being ill only a short while. She was six-years of age. :;= n * * Mrs. Andrew Mickeison, pioneer resident of this city, died at her home here early Thursday morning at the age of 82-years. * ar- * ar. ilr. and Mrs. Axel Johnson are the parents of a son, born January 30. Mr. ancl Mrs. Raymond Houser are the parents of a daughter, born January 30. —FIVE YEARS AGO— February 12, 1943 A war ration board has been established in Pine River to facilitate better service for the city and surrounding territory. The basement room of the Lake Region Hotel has been made available through the courtesy of Arvid Lundin, manager of the hotel. * * ■ * -*. Ola Johnson, pioneer resident of FRASER-NELSON FOST PLANS DANCE FOR MARCH 17 Jlembers of the Fraser-fNelson Post of the American Legion initiated plans at their regular meeting Tuesday evening, for holding a dance at the Pine River armory on St. Patricks night, March 17, and preparations are now going forward in that direction.

Reporter Farmers, Sheepmen Sportsmen Plan Organization Soon Several Sportsmen of Pine River anil vicinity bave indicated a growing interest in the problems arising from the depdedatiohs caused by the wolves and foxes which are more than usually numerous about the country this year, and will soon call an organization meeting whereby fanners, sheepmen and sportsmen of the community will be allied in a single unit to srudy this particular problem.

Dear Friends,
Good news this week for eastern Long Island and the other areas affected by Superstorm Sandy, as the House of Representatives passed a robust package of approximately $50 billion in emergency aid in a bipartisan vote. While this aid should have been approved weeks ago, it represents a strong and sustained commitment to rebuilding our communities. The Senate has already shown support for a similar aid package, so we can anticipate that this vital assistance will be approved next week.
If the home you own or rent, or if your business was damaged by Superstorm Sandy, I encourage you to apply for FEMA assistance before the January 28th deadline. You can read more about FEMA's Individual Assistance program on my website.
Here are some of the components of the Sandy aid legislation that are especially important to our area:
--$16 billion for Community Development Block Grants that can be used for community needs related to short term relief, such as the restoration of essential services, and long-term recovery.
--$11.5 billion for the FEMA Disaster Relief Fund, which provides both individual assistance to households and public assistance (or capitalize both IA and PA) to reimburse state and local governments for storm cleanup and response costs. This is important because without federal assistance, local governments would have to look to taxpayers to cover the full cost of storm response.
--$5.35 billion in funding for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers including $3.5 billion for repairs to projects that were under construction and damaged by Sandy; $1 billion for flood control and coastal emergencies activities to support emergency operations and repairs; $821 million for operations and maintenance funds to dredge navigation channels. The Army Corps will play a vital role in repairing damage to our shoreline from Sandy and ensuring our communities are prepared for future storms.
--$780 million for SBA disaster loans to help small businesses recover. Small businesses are the foundation of our economy, and these low-interest loans are an important lifeline to those damaged in the storm.
I look forward to updating you as the package moves toward final approval by the President and begins making a difference here on Long Island. My office is actively reaching out to local governments from Smithtown to Montauk to identify top priorities for federal funding, and I will fight for the assistance our hard-hit residents need to rebuild their lives. As always, if you need assistance I hope you will contact my office to start us working on your behalf.

Husband says he doesn't want our baby(34 Posts)
Hello, I'm new, be gentle with me!
I'm 41 and around 4 weeks pregnant with my first, and longed for, baby.
I married my husband 4 years ago. He was divorced when we met, and had 2 children, now 18 and 16, from his first marriage. He's 48. We both have good careers and no money worries. I'd have said that we were happily married, although he can be quite selfish.
Before we were engaged, he told me, unprompted, that he'd be open to the idea of having more children. I wouldn't have married him had he not been; it was important to me.
When I turned 40 I decided that we should start trying for a child. I'd wanted us to have some time as a couple first. My husband announced that he'd changed his mind and was no longer amenable to my having a baby because "he liked his life as it is" and "babies cause lots of arguments". (He has the life of Riley actually. Lovely house, plenty of time to ride his bike and pay his guitar, nice holidays etc). As you can imagine, this bombshell caused an argument; I told him that if he reneged on our agreement and deprived me of the chance to have a baby, then on some level I would resent him for the rest of my life and it would ultimately poison our marriage. He caved in eventually, but periodically he'd go into a sulk and tell me again that he didn't want another child because he thought it would stop him from pursuing his hobbies! I think he's selfish.
Anyway, after more than a year of hoping and trying, I got pregnant. I did the test and I can't tell you how pleased I was when it was positive. I told my husband and his reaction was,"well, congratulations I suppose". It can't have been a shock. He knows about the birds and the bees.
Since then, he's barely mentioned it. He said, "don't tell anyone, there's a good chance you'll lose it". Last week he was pretty grumpy, and he said, "sorry if I've been a bit grumpy, I'm under a lot of stress because I'm worried about....." I waited for him to say,"....you", but oh no! The thing he was worried about was a work project.
He must have noticed I was upset, and asked me what was wrong. I told him that he didn't seem interested in the fact that we were having a baby. He told me, rather coldly I thought, that he didn't want the baby, that he thinks it will ruin our lives and that he thought I was being selfish for expecting him to be pleased about it! I was in tears and said that I didn't want to be carrying a little unwanted baby. He said that I was being unfair for not considering his feelings more. He said that he "might come around to the idea" and I should "ask him what he thinks in 9 months' time".
I mentally told the baby not to listen, sorry if that sounds a bit bonkers.
I've got my first GP appointment tomorrow and he won't come with me because he thinks he'd be "hanging around like a spare part".
As you can probably tell, I'm really upset. I feel really unsupported, although I'm lucky to have a lovely family.
Has anybody been through something similar? What did you do and how did you cope? Would really appreciate any advice. Thanks.
err its abit strange how he waited til you were married til he dropped that bombshell. so you were legally tied to him. he prob thinks that marriage makes him immune from being left.
if that was me id walk out on him. hed soon be moaning when hes old and bald and no-one wants him.
clearly he only thinks about himself, so only right you should think about you and the baby only x
Of course he's allowed to change his mind but surely if you are with a woman approaching 40 who wants children, it's only fair not to mess her about and keep changing your mind? And still more unfair to ruin what should be a lovely time by being a sulky-arse?
I think it is unfair to point out that you said "I" and "me" a lot in your post.
Your husband already has children, obviously the desire to have a child with you isn't as high a priority as your own desire as someone who is 40 and does not yet have children (though I'm so pleased that you have fallen pregnant! Congratulations!). The time ticks away rapidly for women so time is of the essence.
Good for you for being honest about it and giving him the opportunity to have his say. Nobody FORCED him to stay with you and have unprotected sex with you. He's not a child who can't make his own decisions or say how he feels! He's clearly done that and carried on having unprotected sex with you anyway. Now, like anyone else, he has to take responsibility for his actions.
If he doesn't come around in 9 months time then it'll be his loss. Your baby will have plenty of love from you and, coming from someone who didn't grow up with their dad in their life, that will be more than enough. If he does come around then he'll hopefully realise how unreasonable he has been and how much he missed out on when you were pregnant. It's such a magical time, don't let someone ruin that for you.
You need to spend the next few months talking talking talking about how life will be when the baby comes.
I personally don't see why you'd want him at your first appt with the doctor. I have only had my DH at scans as other appts are largely about me rather than the baby and certainly there hasn't been a role or expectation that i'd have my husband at the other appts. He will come to the parenting/birth classes though.
You need to talk about how you're going to organise your time with a baby/child to have time for yourselves as well as together as a family. DH and I are talking a LOT about how we're going to manage childcare and also both get our hobbies/sport/fitness interests in. We believe it's important to both look after ourselves mentally and physically and not selfish to take that time.
You need to reassure him that life won't end entirely as a parent. But HE needs to understand you CANNOT tolerate him being down about the whole thing for your entire pregnancy. That would be deeply unfair.
If you don't think you can have those conversations, properly, thoroughly and honestly, just the two of you then you MUST get a counsellor involved to help facilitate these conversations now and certainly before you get anywhere near the birth.
Good luck!
chipmonkey yes I'm very clear that he agreed that, but he was allowed to change his mind, as is the fundamental human right of most free humans. And he clearly expressed this thought before TTC. This was when the conversation about the seriousness of the repercussions of pregnancy should have begun.
Fom both sides obviously. He is as an arse for having unprotected sex in the middle of the issue, and an even bigger arse for making ridiculous assumptions about being able to conceive. Without doubt.
But hindsight is a wonderful thing, and the op needs to deal in the here and now. I would be sitting down to agree on expectations with the baby and how they can both achieve what they want in life whilst still having a child in the picture.
Finance - I am sorry you are having such a hard time here. Here is my essay - in case it helps you! I thought I would share the very recent experience of a very close friend of mine in the hope it helps. She has a 5 yr old son, and was desperate for another. When she knew we were TTC, and another one in our group fell pg, she really wanted it more and more. Well she got all of us to try and talk to her DH about it, and he was having none of it. He had changed his mind, he said, and only wanted one child. And that we should all please butt out. So we did. Then a couple of months later, we heard they were TTC, he had flushed her pills down the loo. He said he couldn't live with her resenting him, but he wanted nothing to do with the pregnancy, if it happened. She had trouble conceiving the first time, so I am sure he thought it maybe wouldn't happen... Anyway, they did get pg, fairly swiftly, and he was shocked. He carried on as before, going put boozing loads etc, leaving her at home with the little one, and just said 'you got what you wanted' all the time. He never went to any appointments with her (he is his own boss so would have been no issue for time off work etc), and they are very wealthy.
My DH is his best friend, so after a time we got a bit worried, and I would drive my DH to the pub and drop him off and pick him up (like his Mum!) and see if there was anything going on. We even thought maybe he is having an affair etc. He wasn't - he just didn't want his life to change, and was a bit scared we thought. They had got into a good routine with number 1, he just didn't want to do it all over again - the sleepless nights, the nappies, the vomit, the shit, they would have to change cars, they would have to eventually move house as their place would be too small (guest bedroom now nursery) etc etc, they would be 5 years older before they were 'done'. The cost was not an issue for him - they have a lot of money. He told my DH he didn't want to be there for the birth (was with number 1) and said thats what doctors are for etc etc. He was boozing till term in her pg, then she went overdue. Suddenly we saw a major change, she had to go in and be induced in the end, he was there for all of it, including the midwife saying 'get round hear and get a load of this - she is crowing!! you don't want to miss it!' and strong arming him round . He says he was glad in the end, and is like dad of the year now. She is FF so he can assist and bond too - and it has worked wonders this. A genius move on her part TBH. He dotes on him, and says he can't imagine life without him.
It was a gamble - as huge one on her part - but paid off. You say he is 48 - well he will be 66 when the baby goes to Uni or leaves home - this must freak him out a bit, I am certain he must think about that, and all this entails. You rather tellingly said he was stressed about a work project - well it sounds to me like he probably worries about working into his late 60's now, and the cost of it all, and his pension, and on and on. I think if I were you I would put my feelings right out of it - sometimes there is not enough space in a heart to heart for both of your worries- he listened to yours and you got what you wanted out of it. Now you should afford him the same in return. I would go to him and say talk to me about your work problems, tell me about your worries, even if it hurts me, I want to be there and listen, like you did to me, we are a team. He may open up to you and you can find a way through. I would try and do all of this first before counselling TBH - this may send him running for the hills if you haven't at least gone to him and tried to walk in his shoes for a bit and understand his POV. The baby is there now, and obviously you wont terminate, so you need to find a way back to him - and sharing his burdens, so he doesn't feel alone, is the way to do that. Just thinking 'what an arse' wont get you through this - you need to dig deep for him, if you feel like there is something worth saving. And often men go to extremes when they are afraid, and say the absolute tail end worst of their emotions, in my experience.
Good Luck!!
Wallys, before they got married, he told her he'd be open to the idea of having more children. If he wasn't he should have told her then! And when you're 40, that decision HAS to be made quickly, if you hang about, it might not happen.
He's being an arse.
'one of each'
Congrats and good luck btw!
You never said whether he has 2 dd or ds or both btw - for me and mine totally irrelevant as DH just wanted me and the kids to be healthy...but again, without condoning it, he may feel he has been there, done that with one of each [sceptical] if not, maybe that will be an inroad? Gives self a
Bottom line - your child will be loved by you and your family and hopefully its adult siblings. And it is a miraculous wonderful thing. So try to reduce your stress levels, hard i know, have a and put your feet up xx
I will be gentle with you OP but will also be honest. We are the same age and my DC3 is due in 6 weeks. Will be loved and is wanted but not planned - when your DH didn't use contraception he lost imho the right to whinge about conception if he knew you weren't using anything. Now needs to man up - i know, i hate that phrase too but there you go.
My DH has not been to any of my appointments - i do not need him there as i would rather he took all his time off post birth so i get 6 weeks with him then. He is ostriching a lot atm as am I because we both know that for us personally the first couple of months is bloody hard going
As I said I am trying to be gentle and obviously each couple is different and each baby is different but from my own experience your husband isn't wrong about either the loss of your 'old life' or the negative impact/toll it can take on relationships and I say this as the one who felt all that despite being happy to fight tigers for my kids.
He said he did not want to be a dad again. You countered he was being selfish and your need to be a first time mum was greater. Funnily enough I had a similar conversation with my DH before we had DC2 - he didn't want another child but asked outright would I resent him if we didn't. I found that really hard to answer as logically all his reasons were correct but biologically it was a different matter...I probably came up with the pithy cliche of it being easier to regret stuff you do
than things you never did. We had mutual consensual unprotected sex a couple of times: DC2 made an appearance. No regrets, no dithering, no doubts - we are both grown-ups
albeit lackadaisical
I do not regret any of my children and am immensely grateful to have had them. I love them to bits even the one not born yet. My DH is not daft - he helped make them so he is a hands-on excellent father, more patient than I am most of the time.
However your DH knows for himself how daunting parenting can be and that it is no picnic - if he felt railroaded/emotionally blackmailed into going for DC3 he is going to be panicking and resentful as there are no rose tinted spectacles, he is going into it with eyes wide open. I am not saying that condones his bitterness or indifference particularly about keeping it quiet (comment not called for even if statistically correct).
So now the real question for you both is how much you want to make it work together or would you rather do it alone (I wouldn't but I could understand if you did).
There was an anecdote in The Bitch in the House whereby a woman's husband had agreed to father another child (had two from previous
marriage) BUT only on the grounds that he was not expected to be a hands-on father and she would do all childcare/baby related things She agreed to it then felt u surprisingly resentful that she was doing it all and his life hadn't changed but didn't feel she could renege on what she had agreed to. That must suck.
My point being is that in some time over the next 8 months you both need to work out what you both can realistically do. For example my DH works bloody long hours and I exclusively bf so...I do all the nights but I get lay ins at the weekend. I do DC1'S HW with her - he does DC1's ICT stuff. I sort the recycling - he takes it down.
I cover all childcare, finding nurseries etc he does emergency pick ups and party drop offs.
We still fight like cat and dog over housework but if you are affluent you could get a cleaner
If he still comes out with the 'i never wanted this baby' line then you have your answer - you will feel like a single mum anyway so may as well be one rather than having two babies to deal with if he is going to act like a little boy.
Nonetheless he needs to support you financially if nothing else if that is the outcome.
congrats to you
i have to say that it sounds from reading your post that your husband was fairly clear he didnt want any more children. my sister was in a similar position and ended up having a child. it was the end of their relationship.
you need to think very carefully about what you want in all of this but his feelings are just as valid as yours. i would suggest you both get some counselling help
I think it's different for men. As a woman, you can feel your whole body changing, but for a man it's still very early days and anything can happen. My DP referred to it as a 'chemical possibility' and 'just a set of legal requirements' up until the 12 wk scan! I was devastated at the time but later realised he was actually terrified of something going wrong.
I think in fairness, I had a romantic idea in my head of how everything would be when I got pregnant. I thought we'd both be really happy, and I could skip around nesting for 9 months. In real life of course it's all a lot more prosaic than that!
Remember too that early pregnancy is a highly emotional time for the mother, so try to stay calm, relax, and don't make any assumptions based on what's happening right now. 9 months is quite a long time to get your head round everything and your relationship will naturally adjust as things change.
It sounds like you have a very supportive mum and sister - perhaps they are going to be the people who are getting all excited with you on this pregnancy?
My DP has mostly been wonderfully supportive, but he just doesn't want to do all the reading, planning, speculating stuff. It makes him feel worried and insecure, so I do that stuff on my own. Different strokes for different folks ...
Congratulations! It is wonderful news.
Oh my gosh what a horrible thing to say/do. If he didn't want a baby he should have made that very clear at the start.
He can still enjoy his hobbies, maybe not as much but life doesn't stop because you're having a baby!
Maybe he'll change his mind when the babys actually here and he can bond too?
Good luck and I hope it all works out for you.
If he didn't want the baby he shouldn't have had unprotected sex with you. End of. He is being a twat, but he might come round if he sees that babies don't necessarily ruin your life (!) especially when you've got time and money as you both seem to have.
It was not the best idea to have a baby with a man who didn't want one, but I get why you did. Good luck.
Men take longer to get their heads around it, DH acted quite similar to this, then after one night of going out and him speaking to a friend about it all he came home in floods of tears apologising for how he treated me and the situation and he had just been scared!
Good luck cxx
Congratulations on your pregnancy, I hope it goes smoothly. I very much hope your DH comes round soon, and it's just a shock, I know it is a miserable experience, particularly when you want you want a baby so much, and your happiness is tempered by your DH's attitude. Throughout my first pregnancy (for both), DH couldn't deal with it, despite agreeing to try, to the extent he was depressed. Everyone kept saying he'd come round - he didn't until DD was born, so I found it a very stressful time & it put me off having another for a long time. He's a brilliant dad. And now I'm pregnant again (planned) but we're in exactly the same position - this time he "doesn't want to go through it again". He wanted me to terminate, but I knew I couldn't do that, although he couldn't understand why. He hasn't even been to the scans this time, I'm just getting on with it, but there have been lots of tears and I'm sure there'll be more.
If you think your marriage is worth it, hang in there, maybe try couples counselling as others have suggested, but prepare for the fact he may not come round til your baby is born (or indeed not at all). Make sure you have plenty of support from friends and family, although it's not the same as having your DH on side. And look after yourself properly. A baby is hard work, but absolutely worth it!
Yes which is why I said I wasn't meaning to be harsh. Perhaps the way you have written you post is reflecting the fact that you are feeling slightly alone in the marriage at the mo?
The thing is, individuals are allowed to change their minds about life changing events, and unfortunately your DH did, and said this before you started trying for a child. But then when you say things like:
When I turned 40 I decided that we should start trying for a child.
I told him that if he reneged on our agreement and deprived me of the chance to have a baby, then on some level I would resent him for the rest of my life and it would ultimately poison our marriage.
I just wonder what part of the decision making he was actually allowed to contribute to in this planned pregnancy? Perhaps he feels like the entire situation is out of his control and he has no involvement in the process.
Well my username tells you a bit about us. We wanted one child. When our much loved and took-ages-to-conceive son was only 9 months old we found out I was pregnant again. The week of his first birthday we found out it was twins. I was crying so much rhe sonographer was lost for words and my husband was just silent with shock. I wanted a termination but husband said we couldn't as there was no sensible reason to do so.
Yet he didn't make any secret of the fact he didn't really want them throughout the whole pregnancy. He didn't lovingly stroke the growing bump like last time and came to only the 12w and 20w scans while I had numerous appointments due to being high risk. The twins arrived and we've had lots of sleepless nights, crying for no reason and just the general newborn crapness. Husband has stropped out the room childishly saying he wants his old life back. He still has his old life - lots of one to one with our toddler - and still goes on his bike rides and runs. We're still planning our holiday around the Tour de France and I take the children out to give him Eurosport time! It's taken the best part of 3 months to start to like/bond with his new twins. But everyday is better and the more interactive and interesting they get the more he seems to enjoy spending time with them. But throughout all this time I've known I could cope on my own if I had to. If it really came to it I'd have 3 wonderful children. I think our marriage is fine. I'm easy going and not too demanding on hubby and he does his hobbies when he wants to - it's not pandering to him just recognising that our house is happier when he's happier so we all win by him having his alone time.
Hang in there, try not to stress too much and enjoy being pregnant.
He'll either come round or he won't but you will never regret having your baby I promise you.
Sorry to hear your husband is not beng supportive! He could just be in shock and as rosiedays mentioned, he prob had s plan and now has to rethink this and get excited about it. Babies do put a strain on the marriage, so he might be worried how it will impact you both, ESP now that he is older. Having a baby sure is tiring!! I just turned 29 when I had my first one and boy was I in for a surprise about how tiring it can be, ESP if u have a difficult baby. Mine wanted to be held all day or she would scream. I even had to bring her into the toilet w me and hold her while using the loo! Anyway soon enough we just hired a night nanny and day help several times a week and that helped majorly. Once my princess was old enough to sleep through the night and could be put down a bit, we no longer needed the help. Maybe try suggesting to ur partner, since u r both financially comfortable, u will get a cleaner to come once or twice a week plus get help for one full day ver the weekend (so u both can enjoy together or do ur own hobbies). Plus u can get part time help during the week if u need it. I know it's expensive, but this phase is only temporary. I rarely get help now that my baby is 14 months. Now we have a second on the way and we will be doing the same thing
If ur husband is still not able to look on the bright side of things in a few weeks (after he has had some time to get over mourning is old life). Then I would get some distance for a while...maybe even take a little trip w friends or visit family for a week...
Most men r scared I think initially, bc they usually r the ones to take care of the family financially etc. my husband looked a little nervous the first time we found out I was pregnant and second time he was def nervous! Lol. But of course he said good news etc etc. even though I could tell he was thinking omg! How will we cope w two? Etc etc.
Good luck! Enjoy this special time. Dnt let him drag u down.
Thanks ladies, although, WallyBantersYoniBox, did you read the bit that said, "I'm new, be gentle with me"?
I really feel for you. You are bound to be feeling very emotional and hormonal anyway due to all the changes that are happening in your body. His behaviour is childish and unfair, he really needs to 'man up' about this.
I do remember my DH being a little 'put out' when we had our first. After Henry was born, DH even said he wished it was just the two of us again! I was upset about thus at the time of course. I'm generalising here, but I think men like to feel that they need to be emotionally looked after, and want you all to themselves! Hang in there, I'm sure he will come round. It sounds strange, but he may be literally jealous that he will not be no. 1 in your life any more!
By the way, Henry is now 15, and he and DH have a brilliant relationship, and DH wouldn't change him for the world.
Good luck xxxx
PS I don't mean to be harsh at this difficult time, but he isn't the only one who is coming across as selfish. Look how many times you've used the word "I" in your post.
Hope you can sort it out anyhow, and congrats on the pregnancy.
Perhaps he had a bad experience with child rearing in his previous marriage if his wife was an unreasonable character (my dh used to do everything, ex-w was very lazy)? Perhaps he's had some snide comments about becoming an old dad? Maybe he had difficulties with the kids and feels too old to start the sleep depravation, and stress at this time in life.
My DH wasn't over the moon when I got pregnant, but that's because his ex wife said she'd stop all contact with his kids if she ever found out he got another woman pregnant and was totally unreasonable - telling them we were replacing them etc. It totally messed with his head. Also his life stopped when he had kids with the ex, but with our DS we have travelled the world, save time for hobbies, and do lots of activities together.
Ask him what his main concerns are and point by point see how you can reach a positive agreement.
Well the bad news is that his selfishness has caused this problem and actually having the baby won't help since it will be even harder for him to make life All About Him. The good news is, you have - fingers crossed - the thing you really longed for so congrats! Selfish men are ten a penny so I would give up trying to please him all the time - presumably that's what you have done till now, and look how he's repaid you! If the marriage continues, tell him it will be on your terms. Babies at 41 are less easy to come by. Cherish yours and let your husband decide what he wants to do. Leave him to it and don't pander to him. I know which I would keep if push came to shove.

I've seen a lot of squirrel proof birdfeeders, and a lot of strange racoon, skunk etc. "proof" feeders, but I've never seen a black bear proof feeder that works - the best ya can hope is they don't TOTALLY destroy it getting to the goodies inside. Total destruction is the usual result.

Man With Pants Salt and Pepper Shaker Set
Salt and pepper shakers can come in many forms, and here's one with a very interesting look. On the outside it is a man with a seemingly large pair of pants. However it is actually a salt and pepper shaker set.
This PANTS salt and pepper shaker comes in two parts, first is the man without his pants that carries salt and the other part of the set, the pants which carries pepper. The man with his pants can be placed on the table with the man stacked into his pants and as and when needed they can perform his act and turn into two parts for dispensing salt and pepper.
The salt and pepper set is made of ceramic therefore they will be sturdy enough to last for quite some time.
A cute ceramic salt and pepper set that looks good also as a dining table decoration.
The Pants salt and pepper shaker set retails for $6.82 from Amazon.

The guy is a tool. Of what I have seen him do - including training - he does not think things through and is downright stupid. This video and his subsequent removal of it, speaks clearly to that.
Normally I would not disparage another instructor, but when he did something as unsafe and stupid as he has and then in the wake of overwhelming peer group criticism, defended it, he showed himself for what he is.

Deep Coverage – Week 15
Ross Miles uses PFF's unique cornerback coverage data to recommend some Week 15 wide receiver start/sits.
Deep Coverage – Week 15
At Pro Football Focus we watch every snap of every game and use that data to gain an edge at fantasy football. One of the ways we use that information is to see which cornerbacks are covering which wide receivers pre-snap based on their positional alignments. This allows us to identify cornerbacks who are asked to shadow receivers around the field rather than just arbitrarily assign them the moniker of being a shutdown corner because of the perceived status and abilities. By studying these defensive tendencies we can also start to make predictions about the on-field matchups for the upcoming slate of games and use that insight to alter our fantasy projections.
Shadow Cornerbacks:
The following cornerbacks have been used in a shadow cornerback role at least five times this season. This means they were asked to follow a wide receiver around the field during a game, regardless of where in the formation they lined up.
Shadow – The number of games a cornerback has followed a receiver around the field.
WR1/WR2/WR3 – This is the percentage of snaps that a player has been aligned, pre-snap, with a team's WR1/WR2/WR3
Other – The percentage of snaps a cornerback was not aligned with a WR1/WR2/WR3
Cov – A player's PFF coverage grade. Above 5.0 is very good, 4.9 to 1.0 is good, 0.9 to -2.0 is average, -2.1 to -6.0 is poor, and below -6.1 is bad.
TA – The number of passes thrown into a player's coverage.
% Ct – The percentage of passes completed into a player's coverage.
Yds – The total yardage allowed.
TD – The number of touchdowns allowed.

Mild Headache?
Born premature, Kaleb Mayberry of Putnam County spent the first eight weeks of his life in the hospital, and regular visits did not end after that. Kaleb's parents say he was used to seeing doctors and was always cooperative, but that changed after a routine test left the then 4-year-old screaming in agony last August.
"If it hadn't been for his mother raving about the medicine and giving them problems, he wouldn't be here today," Kaleb's father, Javon Mayberry, recalled.
Now five years old, Kaleb's mother said he stands only a couple inches taller and is only a few pounds heavier than his two year old sister.
"When you're a mother, you're your child's advocate and so it's up to me to look out for his best interests" Jessica Mayberry explained. "I thought, 'he really hates being small. I need to look into what to do about it.'"
So Mayberry brought her son to the doctor, who recommended a routine growth hormone stimulation test - the same test that led to Ferrero's death October 10, 2007.
At the pharmacy, Mayberry said she received a full 300 milliliter bottle of arginine; by the time she stopped the test, approximately half the bottle remained. Ferrero received an infusion of two bottles, more than 60 grams of the amino acid; the test required 5.75 grams. Kaleb received only half the bottle, approximately 15 grams, but Mayberry said Kaleb displayed symptoms similar to Ferrero's and if caregivers paid more attention, they might not have made this mistake a second time.
"In his file, he was described as having a mild headache," she said. "I don't know what part of writhing on the floor and screaming 'my head is on fire' is mild, but that enraged me."
Kaleb recovered, but the Mayberrys just learned of the mistake last Wednesday almost three months after his test, two days ago, they received a call from the hospital asking why they had not paid their bill for the test yet. Kaleb is scheduled for a brain scan on Halloween day.
Mayberry said she feels lucky that after all that has happened she can still focus on getting her son ready for school next year, even though Kaleb has bigger aspirations:
"I want to be spider-man when I grow up."

The people of India contain millions of wonderful human beings who work for the cause of human justice, but this nation is also home to some men who would be welcomed with open arms by those in our Tea Party. Some Indian leaders make statements that simply lack any sense of reality or interest in the lives of women. Mulayan Ssingh Yardev of the Socialist party in the state of Uttar Pradesh just had to inform the people of India that he must rank as the Number One woman hater in the world. He is very upset because two men in a recent Mumbai court decision were sentenced to jail for participating in a brutal gang rape of a woman. According to Yardev, if he is elected prime minister any law that sentences a man to jail for rape will be repealed because "boys will be boys." After all, "following a girl-boy fight, the girl complains she was raped." In the Mumbai rape the boys shoved a broom handle up her rear end.
One of his buddies, Abu Azmi went further. "Rape is punishable by hanging in India. But here noting happens to women, only to men, but women are also guilty." Huh? How can one even respond to such stupidity. Oh, his son denounced dad and is furious at any and all rapists. I suggest we shove a broom handle up the butt of Abu!!

Chicken Stock and Chicken Noodle Soup
- 1 (3- to 4-lb) chicken, whole or in parts
- 1 large onion (don't bother to peel), cut in half
- 4 large garlic cloves (don't bother to peel)
- 3 large carrots (1 whole, 2 chopped)
- 3 large celery stalks (1 whole, 2 chopped), leaves reserved for garnish
- 2 bay leaves
- 6 sprigs fresh parsley, optional
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
- 1/2 pound small pasta, like shells, orzo, or broken angel hair
1. Combine the chicken, onion, garlic, whole carrot, whole celery stalk, bay leaves, and parsley, if you're using it, in a stockpot. Add 8 cups water. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat so that the liquid bubbles gently but steadily.
2. Cover and cook, stirring gently every 15 minutes or so, until the chicken is fully cooked (30-40 minutes for parts, 50-60 minutes for a whole one). If necessary, add water to keep the chicken submerged. To check for doneness, use a slotted spoon or tongs to carefully lift out some chicken and pierce it with a thin-bladed knife. You should meet no resistance, and the meat should be white all the way to the bone and may start to fall off in places.
3. Carefully transfer the chicken from the pot to a shallow bowl with tongs. When it's cool enough to handle, pull off and discard the skin; pull the meat off the bones and cut it into bite-size pieces. Reserve 2 cups for the soup and refrigerate the rest for another use. If you have time, return the bones to the pot and let the stock simmer for another 15-30 minutes.
4. Put a strainer or colander over a large pot and carefully pour in the stock; press down on the vegetables to extract as much liquid as possible, then discard them. Skim the fat off the top. You should have about 7 cups; if not, add some water. Sprinkle the stock with a little salt and pepper. (If you just want to make chicken stock, stop here.)
5. Put the pot over medium-high heat. Bring it just to a boil, then lower the heat so the liquid bubbles steadily. Add the chopped carrots and celery, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are as crisp or tender as you like (anywhere from 10-30 minutes).
6. Stir in the pasta and the reserved 2 cups chicken; adjust the heat so the mixture bubbles steadily and keep cooking until the pasta is tender but not mushy (another 5-10 minutes). Taste and adjust the seasoning, garnish with the reserved celery leaves, and serve.
- Total Time: It's the epitome of comfort food. Everyone needs one delicious, nourishing chicken soup recipe in her repertoire, and this version nails it.
- Yield: Makes 4 servings (plus extra chicken) (serving size: about 2 cups)

First, can we just take a second to oo and ah over those mountains in the background?
I hadn't made the patterned pants plunge until Lulu's sent me this pair of pants. I am now a member of the cool pants club. So much fun! The splashes of green, while I wasn't so sure about at first, are my favorite part. You can't tell, but they are also high wasted, which hello, is awesome.
Be sure to check out my first vacation outfit here
Since I'm going to Florida the weather change is going to be big. I could not be more excited about that. Thank goodness it has warmed up slightly here, we've moved from the 0 degree range to the 20 degree range. When I head to Florida I'll be moving into the 70 degree range! Dreamy.
This outfit is perfect for traveling. The lightweight blouse gives you the appearance of being pulled together while at the same time it is cool enough for warm weather.
I hope you all have a wonderful day. Don't worry, I'll be thinking about you all as I have the time of my life with my five and a half BFF's at Disney World!
P.S. these pants are on sale for $60! Go snag a pair!
P.P.S. if you want to take a small look back at my time working at Disney World, check out this ancient post.

Okay, I'd so love your help with this......my DS, in K, freaks with the school bus.........as long as it is his regular driver he's okay. But if it's a different driver or differnt bus number he refuses to get on the darn bus (and I end up driving him to school, in my jammies most of the time :)............I'm not really sure what the deal is.......at first I thought maybe he was thinking the bus wasn't going to his school...but when I asked him he thought I was nuts..........Of course he knows the bus is going to his school (duh)---but he seems to get stressed about the bus having so many kids....and so many differnt kids (from different stops I guess)
Have you gone thru this? What the heck can I do...........so trying to NOT have a mommie meltdown at the bus stop :)
relax. So what if you have to drive ds in your jammies.
Busses are noisy & chaotic, he may not like the noise & chaos. him not wanting to get on if it's a different driver or the number is different makes me wonder if your ds likes to have a set routine & these situations changes that routine of his enough that it bugs him.
My Kindergartener also doesn't like riding the bus, so I now drive him every morning (which is fine b/c I have to take my youngest to preschool), but he does ride the bus home with his two older siblings.
I gave up trying to convince him; I figure it will pass, or not. Last year he begged and begged to ride it to pre-k, and I finally let him and he loved it. He was only on the bus with a few other kids and they were all 4 yrs old. There were 2 adults at all times - the driver and an assistant - and for him, it was a fun experience. This year now that he is in elementary school, he rides the bus with lots of 3rd/4th/5th graders, and he's had a couple issues with some other kids on the bus (as well as with his own brother).
He happens to have sensory issues as well as speech (articulation) so he doesn't speak up during situations, plus it's all very overwhelming for him. I figure he'll grow out of it, or DH and I will have to adjust our schedules in the the future to help him avoid riding the bus twice a day. Time will tell. My older two children prefer riding the bus, and I figure my youngest will, too, when he's eligible.
oh, and about the changes of a new bus driver - I bet it just makes it a little scary and uncertain. I know with my same DS who doesn't like the bus, when the assistant teacher is out for the day and someone else is standing at the gate to greet him when we arrive, he is a lot more likely to get upset and cry and cling to me.
How often is there a different bus driver? If it's frequently, I'd probably just drive him for awhile and approach it again later on (like next school year).
I think it's fine if you have to drive him for awhile until he's more comfortable with taking the bus, unless that's a problem for your schedule. If he has to ride the bus, I'd try to find a couple of older, responsible students who can act as "bus buddies" for him. The teacher or principal may be able to help you find someone.
Different bus drivers can have different approaches with the kids and that can totally change the ride. Our current bus driver knows every kid's name and they like him. When they have had subs, sometimes it takes the bus longer because they do not know the stops. One sub had the kids telling them where to stop, so they got off on a different block than usual.

When I boot one of the ThinkPad T43s at the office, this text appears on the screen:
2010: Warning: Your internal hard disk drive (HDD) may not function correctly on this system. Ensure that your HDD is supported on this system and that the latest HDD firmware is installed. Press
to continue
to Setup
I press F1, Windows XP boots, and everything seems OK, but I worry about it nonetheless.
According to Lenovo support, this is a known issue, and it's not a big deal--they just want you to know that some utilities might not work with your hard drive. Other people report frustration with the error message and wish Lenovo would offer complete support for all hard drives.
Lenovo offers a hard drive firmware update, which purports to fix the problem on a particular set of hard drives. I burned a CD of the ISO and gave it a try, but my hard drives are not supported.
I'm going to ignore the problem for now and hope for the best.

I live in Thailand. English is really not used. The local industry uses the Taiwanese Bee Box which is a very commercial approach to extracting honey and wax.I would like to try with a Langstroth Hive and see what happens. It seems very popular in the States, Europe and Australia. There has to be a reason why they are not used here .... so I need to find out ... There are many places on the Internet where a single pdf page may be found and downloaded which shows the hive. Personally I find this a bit confusing and not in my wildest dreams can I imagine explaining this to a Thai woodworker who does not know what a Langstroth hive is.Does anyone know where I can find a detailed cutting list since this may be an easier approach? The idea is that if all the parts are listed then it is only cutting them and then putting them together. What could possibly go wrong?
Would you share measurements or plans for your local hive type? I'm sort of a collector (and I'll build one and put it on my World Beehives site.)

It appears you are in alaska, and you should know our system, and if you are adressing it to expatcm, no doubt demensions would not do you any good if his local hives are of different designs, without diagrams, and/or pictures.

I had John O'Rourke of J.W. O'Rourke Leather Products -- Holsters, belts build me a custom street speed rig for the G17 which I've been wearing at the gun shop three days a week and using in the Tuesday night steel shoots during the same time.
I ordered this one exactly to my specifications and the way I wanted it. Straight drop for use with Elbow Up/Elbow Down [ EU/ED or FAS 1/2 hip ]. The back strap of the G17 sits level with the top of the belt so it's not a high ride or low rider but neutral there as well.
When I got the belt/holster/mag pouch I took it out to the closest remote area of the Superstition mountains and timed a few draw strokes without any practice on it. The first two draws to first COM shot were .46 and .44 seconds. That gave me a base as to how fast this rig might be in the future with some practice. I've done a .43 with a kydex belt holster after a few tries in the past so I wanted to see the difference right away. It showed a lot of promise at breaking the .40 barrier and getting into the 3's. I liked it.
I've been wearing this for a month now, shooting the matches with it for the last three weeks as reported with results elsewhere on the forum, as well as practicing the draw stroke from the rig and late this morning I put the timer on it again. Got some low to mid 4's and then after several of those, I stepped the pace up, went for broke and got into a .38 and .37 second draw stroke to good COM hits from 8 feet. I just don't know how much faster I can get at my advanced age but it sure would have been nice to time this one when I was 25
The belt is 2 3/8" wide, skinnying down in the front to let you bend over at the waist with no binding and seat yourself comfortably in chairs, the truck, etc It's comfortable as all get out, distributing the weight of the gun and double mag holder on the opposite side so you don't know you are wearing a gun. I usually wear an untucked large T shirt over a T shirt in the heat with this belt/holster rig. I tuck the T behind the holster and gun and leave it untucked over the mag pouch.
I had a custom drop leg with tie down made for a K frame model 13 4" back in 1972 that I used to play with all the time on fast draw from the hip. Still have that rig stored away but it's not been used now for over 20 now. Guess I've been using EU/ED for at least that long which would make it 36 years.
This new rig John O'Rourke made me is being used and used a lot out here several times a week. Open carry is allowed and more importantly accepted about everywhere without all the nonsense about scaring people around you. I like this rig, it's comfortable, quick, and puts the gun at the optimum height for the skills I've come to use. No retention strap, but it's boned enough to hold the gun if I run or jump up and down. Situational awareness is mandatory with this holster, but working the shop I'm pretty much a closed environ and not out on the streets with it all the time in public in crowded scenarios.
Thought the members would like some photos of this so without further adoo, here ya go-----------------let me know what you think.
