to be fecking sick of people telling me 'just tell him to...'(122 Posts)
My DP does sweet FA in the house and takes very little responsibility for anything at all. Friends keep telling me 'Just tell him you are not doing it anymore', 'Just telling him to do it himself' etc etc. Do they not realise that after 7 years I HAVE TOLD HIM THIS!
It has no effect. I tried not doing housework but cave and do dishes when I am forced to eat my cereal out of a cup/ have so much ironing needing done the cupboard I stuff it in wont close anymore etc.
I keep hearing 'I wouldn't stand for that' as if I am chosing it and don't mind - just pisses me off that people seem to think I want to be made to feel like a dick for 'letting' him not do any housework
Well, in the nicest possible way - you are making a choice. You are choosing between a range of shitty options. It would be great if choices were horrible thing v great thing. But often they're horrible thing number 1 v horrible thing number 2 . such is life. you just have to choose which horrible thing you're going to go for
One of your choices is to pack a bag and leave. Give him a massive shock and hope that he realises just how strongly you feel about it. This is not the same as leaving the relationship. He just has to think it is. You may call it 'games', I call it a clear demonstration of strength of feeling
Another choice is to stay on strike. Cook for yourself, wash up only what you need, when you need it. Do nothing else. Accept that this means you live in a pigsty.
Yet another choice is to hire a cleaner to come in every day. (this may only be a choice if you have the money!)
One more choice is to throw away anything left on the floor. so clothes etc. In the bin.
Another choice is to not to his ironing and just leave it in a heap.
Buy cards and gifts for your relatives but not for his. Make sure they know that he really couldn't be arsed. (a variation on this would be to buy them something and sign it from you alone.)
Don't be his calendar. If he expects you to remind him when things are happening - don't.
don't be his clock. If he won't get up - leave him to sleep.
Whatever you do though, it has to hurt him and not you. So not doing any ironing - you're going to cave in. Just don't do HIS and if you can ignore the pile of his clothes in the corner of the room, you can keep that up for the rest of your life.
Not doing any dishes - if you don't do any, then as you've discovered, you soon have nothing to eat from. If when you want to eat (the single meal that you are cooking for you, because of course, you aren't cooking for him any more!) you wash the single plate, knife and fork you need and the pots you need to cook with, and leave everything else - again - hits him but you get to eat.
you say he won't take any responsibility for anything. Why is this? Is it because all things household are, he feels, your job? Is it because he is childish? Is it because he lacks confidence? Is it because he's a lazy arse who thinks you're there to service him.
Knowing WHY he behaves the way he does is the key to change.
One thing is as sure as hell though - if you carry on with your life the way it is now, you will grow to loathe him. He needs to understand this.
Stop ironing. It's pointless.
Stop washing his clothes, cooking him meals etc. If he can't help in the house, there would be no way I'd be doing anything that would benefit him.
Thing is - I don't suppose OP wants to live in an absolutely disgusting student-type hovel, which is what her house will be if she only washes up the plate she is about to use, etc. I couldn't live like that! How long is she going to have to do that for? And will it really change his behaviour?
Sorry, OP. I think this would be a dealbreaker for me, and I would rather live alone than with someone who treated me like a skivvy. I'm not sure if you have DCs or not?
Yes I WOULD leave someone who was so lazy they couldn't help round the house because I would see it as them not loving me enough to help.
I'd find it really hard to love someone who behaved like this.
So OP, it's no good moaning then doing it anyway - you need to follow through.
thing is, when other people say "just tell him to" they assume your relationship is one where he realises if he doesn't do it, you would leave him. Or that if he doesnt do it, you won't. Or if you tell him to do it, and he doesn't, you'll make his life hell.
Your relationship sounds like you'll not throw him out, will just do it yourself after a while, won't actually stand your ground.
Look at it another way, why should your DP do this stuff? You get stroppy for a bit, but as long as he holds his nerves, normal service resumes after a bit and life carries on as before. There are no consequences for his behaviour and you will run round after him. He's got a servant he doesn't have to pay, why bother doing anything? It's not like anything will actually happen.
I had this before I left my x. I think that people mean well, their own partner is a reasonable person and presented with reason, will try to behave more fairly.
My x was not a reasonable person. His priority wasn't to be reasonable, or to be fair. it was to get me to do as much stuff and to nag him as little and to ask for as litte as possible and he 'managed' that situation by sulking and shouting at me that he worked hard all day blah blah blah blah blah. He'd plenty of energy left for criticising though.
I agree that it's about RESPECT. If he's not a reasonable man, you can't reason him in to having more respect for you. You may deserve it but you're not getting it.
OP, what does he say when you tackle him? Does he make false promises or simply refuse to do it? Does he realise how upset it makes you?
I can't TELL my husband anything. If I ask him to do something, we have a discussion. And he will usually agree with me unless he has a good reason and we both agree. But if I TOLD him to do something, he'd be annoyed and would be less helpful than he otherwise would be. Everyone deserves respect. I can't tell from your post whether you are confrontational and aggressive or entirely reasonable.
Of course, he could just be a lazy bastard. But after 7 years he's very unlikely to change unless you force the issue.
Maybe people are board of listening to stories of how fed up you are.
Sorry I know its harsh, but I get really fee up of people who moan about the same issue over and over.
These people may not want to tell you to leave the bastard.
It would be a deal breaker if dh was quite happy to sit back and do fuck all while did everything for him.
I don't think we have all the info we need to tell if YABU. For example, if he works 80 hr works, you don't work and have no children or children in school I think it would be a reasonable arrangement between you that you do all of the housework. If you both work full time and you are also taking care of everything at home then he is being completely unreasonable.
But why would you move in/marry someone incapable of washing up?
That's a good point, Euro.
I for one simply assumed that there must be an inequality or the OP wouldn't feel resentful.
I had this with my now ex and it was ultimately a deal breaker. I tried lots of different approaches but nothing worked. My biggest bugbear was the sense that I was responsible for everything (house, children, finances etc). We did try a cleaner but of course it was down to me to sort, organise and ensure house was actually tidy enough for her to clean!
Now he's moved in with GF who doesn't cook so he's doing all the cooking and most of the shopping too. Had he done this much when he lived with me, we might still actually be together. On the other hand, my newish BF emptied my kitchen bin at the weekend (big deal for me, have clear ideas on what guests should or should not do ) just because it needed doing and I was busy! Trivial thing but speaks volumes to me that he actually noticed it needed doing, offered (so not overstepping the mark) and did it while sending me up for feeling uncomfortable about it .
As PP suggested, there is no reasoning with someone who is choosing to be unreasonable. Still can't believe it took me to my mid 40s to truly get that actions speak louder than words.
Always amazes me that there's so many women happy to play mummy to their partners.
Op you're friends are giving you advice, I assume you have a moan to them about it, if you don't want their advice stop telling them about your situation. By the sounds of it my 4 year old does more around the house than your dp, yes I'm training him well, some woman will thank me in 20yrs time!
As others have said it's not about housework, it's about respect. Does'nt sound like he gives a damn about your needs quite frankly.
regular appearance of such threads indicates that you are really not alone.
I closely relate to what you say. I think people who advise to "just tell him":
a) are very lucky/delusional in their relationships and never had to deal with these issues, so are not in a position to say anything sensible, and/or
b) subconsciously blaming the woman for housework inequity problems as housework is of course a woman's job even though men are supposed to share it equally, iykwim.
I also would be delighted to find out how people who say "I would have never married such a man!" vet their spouses prior to nuptials. Naturally, most of us, if propositioned by a man who announces that "Marry me, but housework is a woman's job" would naturally say "er? bugger off." The trouble is that:
- People often start relationships in the purple haze of love that can make it remarkably easy to overlook imperfections in one's love object. The purple haze also makes women mind the housework less as they see it as an expression of love. It can even motivate men to do more as they want to impress a potential partner. The pity is that when the haze recedes with time, men lose the motivation and women start seeing housework for what it is.
- People often start relationships in circumstances where housework is less of an issue and become a bigger issue with time. Such as: They start living together as childless students who share a tiny rented flat and eat junk. Fast forward 10-15 years and they find themselves with a mortgaged three-story terrace that needs work, two children who need to get 5-a-day, a dog, disabled elderly parents, full-time jobs, and a garden full of slugs. And who usually volunteers to "be responsible" for it all? No prizes for guessing.
Very well said, AutumnMoon. Because you rarely make a long-term commitment to anyone who is a lazy bastard with questionable attitudes about taking a fair share of household responsibilities. It is only as the relationship develops (and the arrival of children is a big factor) that their true colours emerge. When ex-dh and I lived in a shared student house, we all mucked in. But equally, we were all a lot less bothered about things being mucky.
Buy more pants and socks so that he runs out of clean clothes before you do. He'll do washing eventually
But people I know, moaned about their partner's uselessness pre children, had children with them anyway and are still moaning about them.
Fair enough if there is a change over time but when people, such as my SIL have been complaining about how lazy/useless etc their partner is for the last 10 years on a daily basis to whoever will listen it does become tiresome.
Luck can play an element but personally, I do think a lot of people do have a choice, crap choices possibly but the choice is there whether or not to stay with someone who treats you badly. IMO being consistently lazy is treating someone badly.
He might, justmyview but in the meantime, why should anyone have to live in a tip, surrounded by unwashed pants and socks just to try and get an already unwelcome and unheard message through to a lazy sod?
I agree Pandemoniaa it sounds like returning to the worst type of student flat. I'm just trying to think how OP could manage NOT to always be the first to cave in
mess - i personally can't stand it but i understand that some people don't mind.
Dishes/laudry/roilet cleaning - this one i honestly dont get it. Would those people REALLY not have done it if they lived alone? If thats true then it would put me off them. Do they wash their teeth and their penis? . Do they wait untill their teeth fall?
I wouldn't divorce for housework per se but luck of hygiene would put me off sex which then would make to leave.
"I also would be delighted to find out how people who say "I would have never married such a man!" vet their spouses prior to nuptials"
I looked at how he lived in his own house. He cooked, it was clean and tidy. If, in the early days, I'd seen he lived in a pigsty and had the local takeaway on speed-dial, I'd have backed away before I'd been on a handful of dates with him. I would not have assumed that living with me would have miraculously changed him.
if I'd seen
Pandemoniaa, thanks! I also love your rendition of my name here. Seriously considering changing it.
roundtable, yes, you are right, lots of women moan about their partners and then have children with them anyway. I certainly moan and plan to have more children with my husband (disclaimer: I don't moan to anyone and all the time as yes, I realise that it is tiresome). But I don't agree with you on the subject of choice availability. I think most women who are in relationships with men do most of the housework. So if one wants a men, e.g. to have children with, one may find the labour pool of house-trained husbands a bit small. And anyway, why should the woman do all the running-around, messing with divorce and switching husbands? Sounds like more work for women to me. It's shit either way and often it is very difficult to assess which stinks less.
So I say - women should have their cake and eat it. We should be able to stay married AND share the housework equally.
AutumnMoon - well, most people these days do live together before getting married and having DCs, and you do get a pretty good idea of general laziness/attitudes to cleanliness from that - IME having DCs tends to highlight these issues, not create them - few men who did 50% of the housework before having DCs and were generally tidy and respectful of their DP suddenly stop.
I think the issue is that too many woman like the slightly helpless men act when the start dating blokes in their 20s. It's astounding to me that so many woman do actually happily marry and have DCs with men like this and then bitch about it later.
When people find they have a 'good deal' in a relationship they have no incentive to change, I would have left DH if he'd not done a fair share round the house when we first started living together. I'd have thrown him out if he treated me like a skivvy once DS came along, and if you take responsibility for everything, why are you surprised that the other side of your partnership would want to change the situation without you forcing it?
oh, I'm doing it now too! sorry, AutumnMadness

He wasn't asleep, but he wasn't awake either. It was that in-between state, and for the third night in a row, Charlie Wakefield was being robbed of slumber.
Mumbling something unintelligible aloud in the dark, he relieved himself from the struggle to drift into the life-giving heaven that he longed more than anything else. Sleep was the only thing on his mind.
His wife, Julia, conscious of his departure from the bed, groaned to him, "Honey, what are you doing? It's still quite early."
"Pointless, Julia," he sighed, wiping the mocking rheum from the corners of his eyes, "I haven't slept since Wednesday. I'm not even thinking about what happened. It doesn't bother me. I just can't fall asleep no matter what I do."
As he gazed despondently out of the bedroom window, only tiny slivers of sunlight penetrated the horizon line. Dawn was a few hours off. It was still too dark to see the placid woods that lie only thirty yards away.
He was referring to a rather strange affair, which had occurred only a few nights before. Charlie Wakefield had been working late, and upon his return home there were household responsibilities that needed his attention. Julia's car was in desperate need of a mechanic as it billowed black smoke upon ignition, but he felt capable of mending its wounds.
The old '57 Chevy Del Ray had seen its better days since it rolled off of the assembly line twenty-something years ago. He was a whiz with things like cars, a little tinkering here and a firm whack to the carburetor did wonders for the beast.
In his concentration, he hadn't noticed his wife's entry into the garage as she spoke, "Charlie, darling, after you finish with the car would you please gather some wood for the fireplace? It's supposed to cool off tonight, and the snow will be around the corner."
"Yeah, I've got to get this grass cut tonight too, last of the season I bet, thank God. That boy of ours was supposed to do it this afternoon, wasn't he?"
Their sixteen-year-old son Matthew lacked the work ethic that Charlie tried to demonstrate.
"He was, I scolded him already. I reckon he'll be cutting it tomorrow if he knows what's good for him."
"Well with the frost coming I've got to cut it tonight, go on inside and tell him the wood needs gathering. I'm almost done with this piece of junk, I'll cut the grass."
Charlie liked keeping busy at home. Their Victorian-style residence he had built with his bare hands, and the maintenance of a humble home helped relieve the stress he experienced at work; his "vocation" as a psychologist had once been his passion, but with time this zeal faded. They were financially sound, but despite Julia's suggestions to retire, he was not prepared to put his family's fiscal security at risk.
Reluctantly, he cut the grass as daylight waned and eventually winked goodnight. Raising a boy who didn't understand hard work troubled him greatly, but for the most part Matthew did what was asked of him. He pushed the real mower–which was his preference to the newfangled motorized mowers–over the last lane of the lawn and saw Matthew slip out the back door and head towards the chopping block on the edge of the thicket that grew on three sides of their quaint home. Night had set in. Oh how the daylight escapes us as fall comes to a close and winter's icy lips breathe softly down our necks.
Charlie shivered, as he pushed the mower around the corner and into the shed he heard a distant bellow for his presence that he recognized to be Matthew's tone of danger. He grabbed the Browning A5 Magnum shotgun from its resting place mounted on the back wall; apart from their family's enthusiasm for game hunting, bears were not uncommon in their neck of the woods in Farwell, a small Beltrami County town in northern Minnesota.
With the athleticism and grace that God had blessed him, he swiftly crossed the yard and was soon by Matthew's side. Matthew did not look at his father; instead he gazed expressionlessly into the woods, and said nothing.
"What's going on?" He inquired only slightly out of breath.
His son's lack of words and stony gaze out into the darkness was unsettling, and after a short time he was overcome with confusion, "Matt, what's the deal? I came as fast as I could. Those bears back again?"
Julia had heard Matt's cry as well, and was standing behind the screen door just inside the house.
"Dad, look!" The quiver in his son's voice chilled Charlie, and just as he spoke, Matthew pointed out into the darkness, just beyond the freshly cut woodpile and into the mystery that the woods hold when the sun has set and the moon has chosen to remain asleep below the horizon. He saw total darkness. But after some time, he beheld what had alerted his stiffened son.
It was not a bear, nor was it anything that Charles Wakefield had ever seen before. A pair of eyes had opened within spitting distance from the two, as they stood, motionless but protected by the loaded gun that was held across Charlie's chest. Charlie wondered briefly if he should shoot the thing, whatever it was, but although he could see nothing of the dim phantasm apart from its eyes, he did not sense any danger, but rather perplexity.
Charlie took a step forward, and in an instant they vanished, only to rekindle again slightly displaced from where they were previously. The eyes were unlike anything he had ever seen; it was like two smoldering flames, blinking at them with equal curiosity. They held no finite boundaries, and seemed to flicker with the slight breeze that shook the weakened leaves from the trees, the red and orange leaves oscillating slowly and steadily in the shadows as they watched in amazement.
They stood for more than a minute, and finally Charlie instructed Matthew to run and grab a flashlight, but before Matthew could sprint to the shed and back, Charlie slowly started to move toward the eyes, with the safety off and gun aimed precisely at them; Charlie was known to be an expert marksman.
With each step winter faded, and the ambiance of the woods became extremely uneasy for Charlie. He told himself that the heat he felt on his front was out of adrenaline, but his back remained cold. The smell of burnt skin invaded his astute nostrils, but he knew it was not his own, yet an inexplicably trance-like interest drove him slowly on.
A soft voice whispered in his ear, "Go back inside." The speaker seemed to communicate to him from within Charlie's body.
"Are you crazy?" he asked nobody in the hushed woods. "I can't go back now." All of creation was watching Charlie.
"He can't protect you from this. Go inside, now."
But just as his eyes had adjusted to the total darkness and his location became close enough to distinguish some sort of shape, the eyes closed... or were blown out, rather. Only the sounds of the crickets inhabited the woods.
Could it be the leaves? A lonely owl's eyes reflecting the light from the floodlight in the backyard? Whatever it was, it's gone now. His rationality battled his emotion and keen perception.
His son had joined his side in a manner that was deftly silent, and handed him the flashlight. Immediately pushing the small black button that held the power of nearly-dead batteries, he shined the light at the spot that the alleged eyes had been, now only ten paces to his front.
He squinted hard towards the weak beam projected by the flashlight. There was something there, but it was not what the two had expected. A slain deer lie alone, neck broken and head contorted to a backwards position, each slender leg at angles not created by nature, but this was not what disturbed Charlie the most.
"Go inside. Now. I'll be there in a moment," he ordered his son, fearing that this was not something that any man, young or old, should have to witness.
The victim of this mangling had been burned badly, but from the inside, and through the large crater left by the unknown creature, the heart was exposed. An upside down cross was distinctly displayed, burned into the heart which once kept the animal alive.
Since that gruesome night Charlie could not sleep. Counting sheep, sleeping salve, warm baths; nothing could give him what he wanted. The bags under his eyes said it all. He wondered if he would ever sleep again.
He prayed hard every night since it happened; he wore a Catholic mask, but hadn't chosen to go to church in some time. His lack of sleep, in his frustration, had him questioning even the existence of a God.
"Go back to sleep, I told you, it's still too early to be up and about." Julia too wanted him to be able to sleep; he hadn't been himself lately. Pessimistically, he slipped back into bed, and waited for nothing. He waited for disappointment, and before he knew it, he was back to his sleepless dream state that haunted him so intimately.
"I told you that you needed to turn back. You did not listen to me." The gentle voice from the woods breathed in a mild, indifferent tone. "Do not hold anyone responsible but yourself for what the future holds."
"You were talking to nobody last night after you tried to sleep again. I'm worried about you." And she was; before that abominable night he had slept like a duffel bag full of rocks every night.
"What was I saying?" he asked; he didn't feel as though he actually slept, nor did he remember speaking aloud.
"I couldn't tell really. You were angry though, I figured it had something to do with your new sleep patterns," she said, chuckling. "I don't think you've ever had such a hard time with anything before this."
He was angry. Not only was he trapped inside a world of suffering, but his wife was making light of it, and in his anger he did something that he had never done before. He looked at himself in the curved surface of the coffee pot that he held in his hand, his features distorted as he looked at a man that he hardly recognized. His frustration and anger boiled inside of him like the scalding coffee that colored his reflection. He set the pot of coffee down, turned to his wife that he loved, and he hit her across the face, knocking her to the ground. A drop of blood escaped her upper lip.
"What the hell has gotten into you?" she screamed.
For some reason unbeknownst to him he simply didn't care. Indifferently gathering his briefcase and travel mug he walked out the front door, and his anger subsided as he drove away.
When he arrived home that night, Julia was nowhere to be found, but this came to Charlie's relief. The morning's roughhousing was not what he wanted to deal with at that time, and for the first time in days Charles Wakefield was going to fall asleep.
Am I asleep? This scene that unfolded itself comfortably in his dreams was that of the devil's workings. In his dream, he walked briskly to the shed outside. The door, which always remained ajar, was shut tight. Light crept through the space between the heavy door and the floor beneath it. He pushed it open; Julia and Matthew were cutting up a deer in the shed so Julia could prepare venison steaks for dinner.
The blackened scent of butchery tickled his nostrils as he drew a deep breath into the depths of his empty lungs. He approached them, and as he did, Matthew shot a disgusted stare towards his father. He handed the carving knife over; Charlie was far more experienced than he. He stared long and hard, and his father seemed more foreign to him than he had ever known. Without a word, Matthew made his departure into the house.
So he knows about this morning too. Great, he thought facetiously.
Blood dripped down the blade, and glistened into the soul of Charlie. A single drop hit his hand, between his thumb and his pointer finger, and he watched it descend downward, drawing a crimson tattoo on his forearm. Julia looked at him, afraid. She must not have forgotten what had happened that morning, and her cut upper lip trembled slightly.
I wish that we could just forget that it ever happened. But I suppose we can't do that, can we? It was as though he wasn't alone in his head. His thoughts were constructed from the hate that his mild-tempered nature ordinarily kept in check.
The anger overcame him once again, and instead of turning the knife to the deer, which lie in front of him, he let it play maniacally in his hands, facing Julia. She watched him with a calm nervousness, afraid to speak and afraid to move. His demonically crazed eyes examined her as though he were sizing up his prey.
But she spoke anyway, "What are you doing? Don't do that Charlie, please." Her words reverberated in the shed, which now held only the two.
He had barely heard her, the resentment screamed in his ears, blocking any spoken language of mortal earthly beings. But he did hear something that he could distinguish from the deafening roar that pounded at him from all directions.
"You know what you have to do." The voice was not that of a man. It ran deeper, so deep into his bones that the marrow came to a boil. The heat within him was scalding his insides, he could feel it, but he experienced no pain. Anger consumed his consciousness, and although he felt that he could wake himself from this dream state, he chose not to.
"Punish her," was all it said with the rumbling of a devastating earthquake and a Hellish depth that would instill dumbstruck horror in any normal person, and he stood for a moment unsure of what his next action would be. He looked down at the blade, and saw his own wicked eyes through the streams of gleaming blood, and with no further thought he pinned her to the ground. Blood mixed with blood. He cut her until there was no space left on the body that he used as his demented canvas.
He woke up the next morning, but with no relief of a night's rest, to an inquiry from his son. "Where is Mom?" He questioned flatly.
"I'm not sure, I think I've finally been asleep, but I can't quite tell fully."
"I saw what you did to her." Charlie paused at Matthew's accusation, confused.
"She told me that she bumped her lip on the mantle, but I know what you did. I saw you do it." His tone was not of fear, but of confrontation and retribution.
"Matthew, we'll talk about this later. Right now we need to be more concerned with finding her. This is unlike her."
"Yeah well I'd put my money on her being gone because of you. I'm taking the Chevy into town and asking around." He stepped out the front door, and Charlie was alone.
The house had become cold, and the wood-burning stove longed for practice. Charles Wakefield threw on his coat, and walked out to get his axe from the shed. He knew what he would see before he opened the door. The walk seemed all too familiar, and as he pushed open the door that rested tightly shut against the frame, he saw the blood.
Am I dreaming still? His body shook. There was no deer carcass left here, only blood and a carving knife, which was thrust into the counter lining the walls of the shed. The blood was everywhere; it even spattered the walls, the tools, and the lawnmower. It was hot, unbearably hot even, but Charles Wakefield didn't perspire. Instead he became drowsy, and propped himself against the counter, sitting down on the floor in the still pool of ichor.
The tiredness forced indifference into him, and he felt comfort lying in the thick, hot blood. It saturated him, inside and out. Whoever's blood it was, it gave him what he needed. He shut his eyes and breathed deeply. With his eyes closed, blood dripped into the pool from the heavens, blanketing him with satisfaction that he had never known before. Charles Wakefield fell asleep.
"I am the familiar of Farewell, and together we will set the entire world ablaze." He dreamed that he was in the shed, and looked upwards.
It was the obscure creature that drove the origin of his sleeplessness; only he could see it much clearer now. The shed was dark, night had set in, and he could only see the creature's eyes, but he could see through them to the essence of their creation. They knew him inside and out as well.
They knew his deeds, and had his heart in a fiery vice. They were the same. "You have more purpose than you know, and you no longer have any choice but allegiance." The voice was the same from before, and Charles Wakefield finally realized what had grown to live inside of him.
A softer, unbearably beautiful voice breathed in his ear, "I told you turn back, that He couldn't protect you. Someday, he will have to put an end to this tragedy that has unfolded."
He opened his eyes. He was in the shed, just as he had remembered. The blood that had lulled him into pure euphoria seemed as though it had at recently come to a violent boil. He looked up, Matthew had been standing in the door of the shed, mouth agape in pure terror, staring upwards towards the wooden ceiling of the shed. He looked at his father. Blood rained into the pool before them, and Charles Wakefield came to a revelation. He had never been asleep, nor had he slept for days. His wife hung demonically from an upside down cross, which was somehow suspended from above, staring down at them from a face rotated completely backwards; her body naked and skin a gallery of indescribable symbols.
The sultry den of pure evil was host to only one soul, Matthew's, for Charles Wakefield no longer possessed one, or any human qualities for that matter. His eyes were on fire, and the once cool, green hue had transformed into an amorphous red-orange. He looked his son directly in the eyes, smiled, and said two words:
"Hello, son."
Matthew ran, he turned and never looked back, but as soon as he had made his departure, he father rose from his sanctuary of death and pulled the carving knife that dozed in the wooden counter next to him. He composedly approached the open doorway of the shed as it erupted into flames, surrounding him in a hospitable veneer of inferno. He turned just quick enough to see Matthew slam the sliding door shut.
He saw his reflection in the sliding glass door, he was a black silhouette surrounded by conflagration, and the only feature he could make out of himself were his eyes, embellished by their newest quality.
"When the devil looks himself in the eyes, he remembers who he is, and all that he knows is the blaze and terror," said the voice, in such a soothing growl that it brought Charles Wakefield total serenity.
With the carving knife held tightly in his hand, he advanced with the grace and speed that either God or Satan had fostered within him, towards his son Matthew who stood frozen, mortified on the other side of the sliding glass door. For the first time in nearly a week, Charles Wakefield found peace.

Dharamsala, Oct 17: BCCI said it was "shocked" and "extremely disappointed" after the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) withdrew its team from the ongoing India tour midway due to a pay dispute with the players.
The fourth ODI is currently being played in Dharamsala today. There was one more ODI in Kolkata, one off Twenty20 International and three Tests after this.
In a media statement, BCCI secretary confirmed that West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) had informed them of the decision today.
Here is the full statement from BCCI
"BCCI shocked and surprised at WICB's decision to cancel the ongoing tour of India
The West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) has informed the BCCI of its decision to cancel the rest of its ongoing tour to India because of a dispute with its players, and has advised the BCCI that its players will return home immediately.
The BCCI is shocked and extremely disappointed at the decision taken by the WICB. The WICB's inability to resolve internal issues with its players and allowing the same to affect an ongoing bilateral series does not reflect well on any of those involved. The withdrawal gives little thought to the future of the game, the players and the long standing relations between the BCCI and the WICB.
The BCCI wishes to inform all its stakeholders, especially ardent fans of the Indian cricket team, that this is a unilateral decision taken by the WICB and its players, in spite of several appeals to the WICB to honour its commitment and complete the series.
The BCCI will pursue all options available to protect its rights, whilst seeking appropriate action from the ICC to ensure that its interests and those of the game at large will not suffer any damage due to such acts of indiscretion.

Hony. Secretary

In the first part of this series I talk about the technical considerations for buying a new laptop for 3D work / rendering. I also tracked down the two NVidia mobile cards from the latest generation that are in the performance area. If you want to see how GeForce GTX 970M and 980M tested out in Cycles, you can see the figures here—their rendering performance is quite impressive.
Next, I'm going to make a few recommendations for specific notebook models, which I consider suited for particular usage patterns. Let's get started.
The road warrior. If you are spending a lot of time on the road and need a light but powerful notebook, this one's for you.
High-end configuration 15″: Clevo P650SG/P651SG (Sager NP8652)
Configuration details:
– approximately 2.7 kg without power adapter
– Intel i7-4720HQ
– NVidia 980M with 4GB of RAM
– 2 x 512 GB SSD – One Samsung XP941 and one Crucial MX100
– 4k Sharp screen
Price: approximately $2,800 in the US
– part of the new 'slim' Clevo generation of laptops (29 mm thick)
– light for a performance configuration
– Samsung SSD can be installed in the PCI Express port for high performance transfer
– 4K screen
– very good cooling—effective and relatively quiet
– it can hold up to 4 disk drives
– can pass for a business laptop
– only 4 GB of VRAM. If you'e got heavy scenes to render, it may go over that value
– battery is medium sized, so don't expect MacBook-like battery life
– GPU and CPU are soldered on board, so no upgrade options
Resources: Notebookcheck review, Detailed user review by HTWingNut, Owners forum
Further considerations:
– has no optical drive
– this is a newly released platform. Although the technical and user reviews have been good so far, it hasn't been time-tested
– Samsung XP941 can get very hot when in operation, which might impact the general thermal profile. If you want to have it as cool as possible, go for a second Crucial MX100 and wait for a next generation PCI Express drive
– 4K screen may cause scaling issues in Windows. Also, it consumes more power. An alternative is always the Full HD screen—make sure to get the IPS one!
– there is also a 17″ similar configuration: Clevo P670SG. It has the same price and can be configured with the same options, except for the 4K screen. It's also about 0.6 Kg heavier. If you'd rather work on a 17″, the 670SG represents a good choice
– you can also configure a lower-priced version with NVidia 970M, 16 GB of RAM, a 256 GB SSD + 1 TB HDD and Full HD screen, which will cost around $1,700
High-end configuration 17″: Aorus X7 Pro
Configuration details:
– approximately 3.1 kg without power adapter
– Intel i7-4870HQ
– dual NVidia 970M with 3 GB of RAM each
– 2 x 512 GB SSD – Crucial M550
– Full HD IPS screen
Price: approximately $3,500 in the US
– very good performance
– one of the thinnest, lightest 17″ gaming notebooks
– light for a performance configuration
– can be configured with 4 disk drives
– each GPU has only 3 GB of RAM
– poor battery life
– GPU and CPU are soldered on board, so no upgrade options
– relatively poor thermals (loud and hot). May also throttle under high load
Resources: Notebookcheck review, Detailed user review by HTWingNut, Owners forum
Further considerations:
– if the Aorus name doesn't tell you much, it's a Gigabyte brand. So they have the necessary expertise to enter the gaming hardware world
– has no optical drive
– if you live outside US, it may be difficult to find a nearby dealer
– if you are also a gamer, SLI won't work in all games
– SLI means no support for Optimus, and this is one of the reasons of poor battery life
– it has a borderline gaming look, so it may not fit in corporate environments
Desktop replacement. If you mainly work in one spot, one of these configurations is suitable for your occasional laptop-carrying trips.
High-end configuration 17″: MSI GT72
Configuration details:
– approximately 3.9 kg without power adapter
– Intel i7-4710HQ
– NVidia 980M with 8 GB of RAM
– 4 x 128 GB SSD in RAID 0 (stripping) + 2TB HDD
– Full HD IPS screen
– Blu-Ray reader
Price: approximately $2,700 in the US
– very good performance
– 8 GB GPU means more scenes will fit into the memory
– 4 disks in RAID 0 offer very good transfer speeds
– manual GPU switch from integrated to NVidia. Good for Oculus users and anyone else having problems with Optimus
– very good and quiet cooling
– can be configured with 4 external monitors
– MXM GPU (upgradeable)
– heavy
– no Optimus support results in reduced battery life
Resources: Notebookcheck review, Detailed user review by HTWingNut, Owners forum
Further considerations:
– RAID 0 has a higher risk of data loss compared to individual drives
– the MXM GPU doesn't represent an upgrade guarantee. The new generation of boards needs to be on the same socket and to be supported by the laptop Bios. However, given the fact that the next generation of GPUs will be on the same architecture, I believe there are good odds for an upgrade
– it screams 'gamer', so it probably won't fit into a corporate office
All-out configuration 17″: Sager NP9377-S (Clevo P377SM-A)
Configuration details:
– approximately 4.6 kg without power adapter
– Intel i7-4940MX Extreme edition
– dual NVidia 980M with 8 GB of RAM each
– 2 x 1 TB SSD – Samsung 850 Pro
– Full HD IPS screen
– Blu-Ray reader
Price: approximately $5,000 in the US
– stellar performance
– 8 GB for each GPU means more scenes will fit into the memory
– Fast Extreme edition CPU
– can be configured with 4 disk drives
– good thermals, though relatively loud
– everything can be upgraded (in theory)
– battery life? What battery life?
– bulky design
– heaviest from the lot
Resources: Notebookcheck review, Detailed user review by HTWingNut, Owners forum
Further considerations:
– this is the best performance you can get from a notebook at this moment, and it's the most future-proof configuration (if such a thing exists in a notebook)
– changing the SSDs to a cheaper storage version can shave around $1,000 from the total price
Budget recommendation. If you need an upgrade, but you'd rather make a step by step investment.
15″ Configuration: Sager NP8268 (Clevo P150SM-A)
Configuration details:
– approximately 3.2 kg without power adapter
– Intel i7-4710HQ
– NVidia 870M with 3GB of RAM
– 1 TB HDD 7200rpm
– full HD screen
– DVD writer
Price: approximately $1,300 in the US
– tried and tested configuration
– can be upgraded in the future to the 900 series of GPUs (and maybe beyond), more RAM and disks
– good thermals and cooling
– can pass for a business laptop
– only 3 GB of VRAM
– on the heavy and bulky side
Resources: Notebookcheck review, Detailed user review by HTWingNut, Owners forum
Further considerations:
– the 870M is a GPU from the previous generation, but it still has a decent performance and remains a good fit for a budget configuration
Closing thoughts:
All the notebooks from this article are highly configurable. If the price from a configuration seems too high, you can for sure bring it down by tweaking the details. You can also go up, with options like laser etching, decals, etc. Also, all the models have positive reviews from their users and a good quality of assembly.
When calculating the total carrying weight, you should take into consideration the power adapter. These notebooks are power-hungry and most adapters weigh around 0.8Kg. The heavy contender is of course the 980M SLI machine, which has a power adapter weighing over 1.2Kg. For exact figures, see the middle column of the Notebookcheck review for each model.
Some manufacturers offer extended warranties for approximately $100 per year. My advice would be to go for it, especially if you get a $2000+ machine.
If you wonder why I didn't recommend any 17″ notebook with a screen having more than full HD, this is because they don't exist yet. Production costs are still too high, but maybe there will be an update at the end of 2015. Alienware just released yesterday its new 15″ and 17″ laptops, but they are limited to 16 GB of RAM, have poor disk options, 3 GB and 4 GB NVidia cards and they're heavy and on the expensive side. They have an interesting feature though: the option to add an external GPU to the system. So, if the memory is enough for you or you want to give the external GPU a shot, and you have good bargaining skills, give them a call.
If you need a very powerful CPU, but don't want to go for the SLI monster machine, you should take a look at the new Clevo ZM series (P750ZM / P751ZM / P770ZM / P771ZM). They are available starting with January and can be configured with desktop CPUs up to i7-4790K.
In the end, I advise you to do your own research before deciding what to buy. There may be specific requirements that you have (e.g. Thunderbolt port) that aren't met by all these configurations. So, please, think this through before pulling out the wallet. Each of these models has been reviewed on the net, so look for that as well. The community is always worth asking, and I've included links to unofficial reviews by enthusiast users (HTWingNut) and to the owner forums for each model.
If you need to be mobile and have more power available for rendering, you can take a look at our unlimited rendering plan. For just $50 per month – less than half the price of the cheapest notebook in this article – your renders can finish significantly faster. And you can access it from anywhere you are if you have an internet connection.
If you have any questions about the contents of this article or about the recommendations, drop a line here and we can discuss.
Full disclosure: Neither myself personally, nor RenderStreet are affiliated in any way with any of the above-mentioned manufacturers, or to any review site. And if you're wondering, I've also put my money on one of these configurations ; )
Update: The fall 2015 releases are covered in the next part of the article, including the Skylake CPUs.

Les Binks Interview
Our legendary drummer, Les Binks, is a very private person who quite simply loves playing the drums, started playing at an early age and is superb at his craft. Les recently gave an in depth interview, where he explains his split with Judas Priest as well as quite shocking stories about the music industry and his colourful history in the music business. You can read this interview here
Four Play Festival @ The Acoustic Couch, Bracknell, April 8th 2017
with Multi Story, Jade Vine & Spriggan Mist
At the Four Play Festival, our drummer, Alan (who has since dropped back to being a dep drummer) was unable to make it due to illness. We still did a good job without him though, even though it gave us a more exposed sound and Clive produced a super video of "beast inside" song "Run Red". Have a listen and see how we sounded! There are lovely solos from Catherine and Martin captured in this video!
Review of the Four Play Festival from Neil Mach, AdPontes
Nineteen73 Live Festival @ The Robin 2, Bilston, April 2nd 2017
with Magenta, Cairo & Midnight Sun
The band kicked off this super day long festival at the Robin 2, Bilston to a room of hard core prog fans, winning them over especially when Martin leapt off the 4 foot high stage unexpectedly towards the end of the final number, rocking out on the violin! Legendary prog rockers, Magenta, were really, brilliant and Midnight Sun and Cairo were very, very good too! You will find some video footage of Martin's leap and a gallery of photos on our Kindred Spirit Band Facebook page.
Curved Air Support @ Claygate Festival
The band had a great night on March 12th at Claygate Festival with a packed and appreciative crowd. Legendary prog rockers, Curved Air, were awesome! Click on the link for a page with more description, photos and see the Kindred Spirit Band performing at this gig!

And here it is on the on line Prog Magazine Features page Teamrock where an album track, from the "Phoenix Rising" album, illustrating the "folk rock meets classical with a scientific edge" tag has also been given.
Martin Ash Unleashed!
Our exciting, electric violin player, Martin Ash, jumped off the front of the stage at our first gig - to the surprise of the rest of the band - and ran about amongst the audience - still playing his solo! If you take a look back at the 2016 News page, you can see him doing this!
He will often "go wild" at gigs to the delight of audiences. Up until now though, he has been tethered with a lead from his violin to his effects pedals. Excitingly, he has just become unleashed; he has acquired a wireless system for his electric violin and will be able to wander freely!
I wonder what the maximum distance between the transmitter and receiver is?
Latest in the shock story!
In the last couple of weeks Future Publishing has stepped in for Team Rock and Prog (plus the other magazines they produce) have been resurrected! A photographer has been assigned to do a photo shoot of the Kindred Spirit Band shortly and the full page feature is back on! Read more about the story..

text: I've seen a post or two where people mention cutting part time. I work in the petroleum industry by trade but have a mini excavating business I've run on weekends and vacation weeks for the last few years and about 4 years ago I got an asphalt sealing unit and that's been great too. I've got equipment to do lawn work and know of guys who can start working if there is enough overflow to necessitate more hours during the week. I'm not looking to take clients from successful contractors in my area and fully intend to charge a good rate.... I shoot for $75/hr with my bobcat/mini so would likely look to get about a buck a minute onsite for lawn maintenance... is this a fair rate? With customers from my other work I am hoping to get some of them for lawn maintenance as well. I'm ultimately looking to make the transition to total self employment in the next year or two, but have to know the stability is there - if there is such a thing these days. The area I'm in has been growing at an amazing rate and approval was just given to a home builder for 500+ condo's, semi-detached and detached executive homes. I do have a couple of questions.... What do you use as a trigger for cutting? Do you maintain a 2-3" height in spring, slightly longer in summer, or do you just cut weekly or bi-weekly as needed and base billing on time and materials??? I don't want to take on lawn maintenance jobs and not be able to keep up, so I figured I'd see if anyone has gone this route to get things going.... Many thanks!

I settled for a hat and was charged more money than what was on the tag and when I questioned it, the total bill mysteriously increased by another 2euro.

Floram Park, New Jersey – (The Hosting News) – October 11, 2005 – Global Crossing
has announced enhancements to its Global Crossing IP VPN Service, making the service one of the most powerful and versatile managed Internet Protocol Virtual Private Network (IP VPN) solutions available today.
The company also announced that its IP VPN traffic has increased by more than 200 percent during the first three quarters of 2005, demonstrating the company's continued execution of its plan to provide converged IP services to global enterprises and the carriers who serve them. The latest upgrades provide enterprise customers worldwide with improved reliability, performance and flexibility for increased network productivity. This represents the third major enhancement to Global Crossing IP VPN Service, which was launched four years ago and provides customers with the ability to converge data, voice and video services securely through a single IP connection.
According to Anthony Christie, Global Crossing's Chief Marketing Officer, "Our managed IP VPN service provides a best-in-class converged IP network environment for increased network efficiencies, while decreasing total cost of ownership and increasing customer productivity. With these latest enhancements, we continue to demonstrate our leadership in the delivery of advanced IP services."
Global Crossing's IP VPN service has been enhanced to extend an enterprise's routing domains across an MPLS-based IP VPN. This enables enterprises to preserve their existing routing topology and network infrastructure while seamlessly migrating from legacy networks to a converged IP environment. IP VPN service enhancements also include support of the IPv6 standard. IPv6 simplifies mobile IP networking with improved routing and security capabilities. By enabling devices to automatically configure their Internet connectivity, IPv6 helps support the expected explosion of dynamically connected network devices including PDAs, cell phones, Internet-connected televisions, home security and HVAC systems and "smart" household appliances.
Another new feature is Multicast service – a bandwidth-conserving technology that reduces traffic by simultaneously delivering a single stream of converged voice, video and data to multiple end-points without additional send/receive requirements. Global Crossing ensures the security and segregation of the IP VPN multicast traffic from other multicast traffic.
New Managed VoIP features enable enterprises to route all IP and TDM voice traffic over the IP VPN for on-net toll by-pass and outbound termination to the public switched telephone network (PSTN) with Global Crossing providing complete management of the on-net dial plan in the router. These two new features support the migration to IP convergence for enterprises with a Managed IP VPN.
Other new features supporting Remote VPN Access include managed network support and dynamic routing that provide a cost-effective business continuity solution for any site connected to Global Crossing IP VPN Service. Global Crossing IP VPN Service options include Managed Solutions with Managed Network and Managed Security services, hosted RADIUS, flexible pricing and billing, stringent service level agreements (SLAs), and a multilink point-to-point (MLPPP) protocol that can connect multiple access circuits for efficient bandwidth utilization. uCommand, Global Crossing's industry-leading online account management tool, provides customers secure, instant, anytime access to their IP VPN service and enables them to view network utilization, manage their Hosted RADIUS accounts, and create and track trouble tickets.
Brian Washburn, Principal Analyst for Business Network Services at Current Analysis commneted on the new enhancements, "Global Crossing's latest enhancements demonstrate continued innovation and leadership in deploying converged IP services. The continuous introduction of new IP VPN service capabilities such as managed VoIP and multicast service are examples of features that enable enterprises to realize more value from a converged IP solution, providing a range of benefits."
In operation since 2001 and reaching more than 500 cities, 50 countries and six continents, the MPLS-based IP VPN service runs directly on Global Crossing's worldwide fiber network. The network operates at 99.999 percent availability. Global Crossing's IP VPN offering supports multiple classes of service. In addition to secure data transport, the IP VPN offering provides access to VoIP, IP Video and other IP services, providing a complete platform for managing the transition to IP convergence.

What Do Students Of Online Women's Studies Degree Programs Study?
Women's studies can be generally considered as part of liberal arts. A degree in women's studies helps students gain more understanding of the significant ways women have played a role in the society and in history as a whole. While it is true that degree programs in women's studies can differ greatly from one university to another in terms of curriculum, there are certain courses that are common among them.
Women's Health
Students of women's studies learn about the basic aspects of the female body and biology, but they are more concerned about the consistently politicize health nature of women around the world. Given the fact that religious leaders and governments are almost always the ones that determine the types of medical treatment women can get, students get to learn the many reasons for these standards. They also try to figure out ways that women can challenge these standards.
Women's History Around the World
Not all of the major accomplishments of women have been written in history books. An important part of women's studies is the discovery of all the evidences of how influential women have changed certain events in history. It is important for students also to find out why such efforts and achievements were never documented.
Women In Literature
There have definitely been a lot of contributions that women made in culture and the arts. This is particularly true for societies in which women were not allowed to participate in business and political events or transactions. For serious women's studies majors, learning about and acknowledging the accomplishments of these women can help in their own efforts to make their own contribution to the society in general.
Women In Politics
As we all may be aware of, it is only in recent decades that women were welcomed into the world of politics. Women's studies students look into the many different ways that women have played a role in politics or governance throughout history. More often than not, women in the past were discovered to be very influential in the decision making and policy implementation of men who were in power. Students also get to learn the role of women in the changing of social behaviors and laws.
Sociology of Women
As part also of a curriculum in women's studies, students find out about the many ways women deal with men and fellow women. Through their knowledge of how men and women treat one another, students are able to better their own relationships with people they interact with.

Perry wins par 3 tournament
AUGUSTA, Ga. (AP) - Chris Perry defeated Jay Haas, Jerry Pate and Hunter Haas on the first playoff hole Wednesday to win the 41st Par 3 tournament at Augusta National.
Perry rolled in a birdie putt for the victory after the four golfers finished at 4-under 23 in the nine-hole event, played on the eve of the Masters' opening round.
Notah Begay III had the only hole-in-one of the day, sinking his shot at No. 9. There have been 41 holes-in-one since the Par 3 tournament began in 1960 on a picturesque course adjacent to the 18-hole layout.

No. 10 Florida beats Alabama State
Back on the court for a full 40 minutes, 10th-ranked Florida got off to a fast start.
Kenny Boynton scored 22 points and the Gators cruised past Alabama State 84-35 on Sunday in their delayed opener.
Florida was supposed to begin the season Friday against Georgetown aboard the USS Bataan, but the game was canceled at halftime because there was moisture on the court.
The Gators led Alabama State 47-9 at halftime, the fewest points Florida has allowed in the first half since the implementation of the shot clock.
"We definitely wanted to come out with a bang," said Boynton, who played only 22 minutes. "This was a good game to get everyone in and get a feel for the game."
Four of Florida's starters scored at least 12 points. Nine players logged at least 18 minutes.
As the Gators approached the beginning of the season, coach Billy Donovan was concerned about his team's defense and rebounding during practices and an exhibition game. They allayed some of his worries against Alabama State (0-2).
Florida took an 8-0 lead and was ahead by 32 points with 6:24 left in the first half.
The Hornets missed 19 of their first 20 shots and went 2 for 25 overall in the first half. They finished 10 of 53 from the field and committed 19 turnovers.
"We couldn't throw it in the ocean because they were so much bigger and stronger than we were," Alabama State coach Lewis Jackson said. "We just struggled trying to get into our offense."
Backup guard Bobby Brown led Alabama State with 14 points.
Boynton shot 8 of 10 and made all four of his 3-point tries. He also had six rebounds and five assists.
Patric Young had 12 points, 12 rebounds and two blocked shots for the Gators. Erik Murphy added 15 points and Mike Rosario had 14.
"We all came out with great energy and great focus and got the job done," Young said.
The Gators face a much more difficult challenge Wednesday when No. 23 Wisconsin visit. Florida takes on Marquette two weeks later in a rematch of last season's NCAA tournament game in the round of 16.
Even though Alabama State was overmatched, it was important for Florida to establish its defensive tenacity.
"It builds some confidence knowing that whenever we need a stop, we can do just that," Young said. "It'll give us confidence against whoever we're facing coming up next, whether it's Wisconsin or Marquette, that we can get a stop when we need to."
The Gators played without junior Scottie Wilbekin, who was expected to be the starting point guard this season but is indefinitely suspended because of an undisclosed disciplinary issue. Forward Casey Prather, another potential starter, was out with a concussion.
It is unknown when either player will return. Donovan expects Prather to miss a minimum of one more week and wouldn't be surprised if he is out two weeks. He sustained two concussions in the preseason, with the latest occurring last week.
Wilbekin's situation is more uncertain. Donovan said he has not met with Wilbekin since suspending him and still needs more information to make a decision. Wilbekin is not allowed to practice and did not sit on Florida's bench during the Alabama State game.
"As of right now, I am not playing him against Wisconsin," Donovan said. "He's not been around our team. He's not banned from our facility. I still want to reach out to him, and he's still part of our team and our family."

Hewlett-Packard won't be forced to introduce a "Carly clause" into its executive compensation policies.
HP shareholders rejected two proposals related to executive compensation and voting rights at the company's annual stockholder meeting Wednesday in Los Angeles, which was available via Webcast. The first proposal would have allowed HP's board of directors to recoup bonuses paid to executives in the event of a restatement of earnings or a "significant, extraordinary write-off," citing the performance of deposed HP CEO Carly Fiorina as an example.
Fiorina received a $21 million severance package from HP when she was fired as CEO in early 2005. This package, which has also provoked a lawsuit, was awarded with no allowances for the company's performance over that period, according to the proposal from shareholder Nick Rossi, acting on behalf of Katrina Wubbolding.
HP Chairman Patricia Dunn noted that the company already has a policy that allows it to recover compensation that was awarded before the discovery of fraudulent conduct, and that the proposal would impose restrictions that were too vaguely worded to attract future executives. The proposal was soundly defeated.
Shareholders also rejected a proposal that would have required HP directors to win a majority, not a plurality, of shareholder votes to be re-elected to the board. Some companies have changed their policies after directors were re-elected with a large percentage of voters withholding their votes for certain candidates. Dunn said HP requires directors who receive more "withheld" votes than actual votes in their favor to submit their resignation, and the proposal was defeated.
In other business, HP reapproved its slate of directors, recertified Ernst & Young as its accounting firm, and approved an executive compensation plan that could allow new CEO Mark Hurd to earn as much as $9.2 million in 2006.

In 1974, Johnson grew tired of railroad work and decided it was time to stay home. Returning to his home in the Bisti, he yearned for a more traditional life, driving a wagon and herding his own sheep and goats. In the early 1980's, Johnson was compelled to start carving. On a whim, he gathered cottonwood from a wash in nearby Farmington. Using an axe to rough out the pieces, refining features with a pocket knife and painting with watercolors and dleesh ( a fragile white clay used by the Navajos to paint their bodies); he created his early figures in the hope that someone would be interested in purchasing his Navajo people. Today, he experiences great satisfaction in creating what he knows best, Navajo men and women and the animals for which they care. His work is collected internationally and resides in the permanent collections of the American Folk Art Museum in New York, the National Museum of American Art in Washington, D.C. and the International Museum of Folk Art in Santa Fe. (Thanks to Twin Rocks Trading Post for the biography.)
I believe that every collection should include Native American artwork. I am proud to offer some of the best carvings from a very distinguished Navajo artist who is represented in major museums.
This is a polychrome carved wooden figure depicting a standing man wearing a red shirt, holding a bag of corn. Johnson Antonio seems to capture the mood and the personality of those he depicts.
Size: 5 1/2" x 4 1/2", 17 3/4" tall.
Signed/Dated: on bottom of feet "-91- Johnson Antonio"
Condition: Shrinkage crack at the back as pictured, otherwise Very Good. Size: 5 1/2" x 4 1/2", 17 3/4" tall.

Nothing from God, nothing from any adult sons or daughters in the Bible. Not one word of thanks, not one word of credit.It would be easy to insert a few parental credit verses into the Bible.

Welcome to the ineedhits Search Engine Marketing blog, where we share the latest search engine and online marketing news, releases, industry trends and great DIY tips and advice.
Just a month after removing PageRank data from webmaster tools, Google have decided to update their toolbar PageRank values, giving a conflicting message to webmasters.
Here's the statement Google made when removing PageRank values from their webmaster center:
We've been telling people for a long time that they shouldn't focus on PageRank so much; many site owners seem to think it's the most important metric for them to track, which is simply not true. We removed it because we felt it was silly to tell people not to think about it, but then to show them the data, implying that they should look at it.
If this is Google's stance, why bother updating their toolbar PageRank values? Doing so is only going to create a stir in the webmaster community. As I mentioned in my earlier post, it would be much more effective to remove it from both webmaster tools and the Google toolbar at the same time.
It's also important to remember that toolbar PageRank values can be a couple of month's old, so you're not likely to notice any changes in your ranking from the update.
For those still interested, further discussion about the update can be found on WebmasterWorld and Digital Point forums.

By Tweets that mention Google Confuses Webmasters by Updating Toolbar PageRank | ineedhits -- Topsy.com - November 4, 2009
People spend too much time chasing the little green bar. A few years back, we used to obsess about it, now the time and energy we spent chasing green is used to to better our conversion optimisation.
Getting rid completely of the toolbar PR display would stop people trying to buy PR.
Although it wouldn't stop link trading completely, it would help Google's battle, although links would then be sold on where a web page ranks in Google search results.
Seems to be only the amateurs or newbies that obsess.
I actually think Google has gone about this upside down – surely it would have been better getting of the toolbar add-on, but letting webmasters see what their PR is in their own private webmaster account.

VIENNA — Wilma Holmstrom, 92, Vienna, the widow of Leonard, died in the Methodist Hospital in St. Louis Park, Minn., Thursday afternoon, Nov. 1, 2012, peacefully surrounded by her family.
Visitation will begin Wednesday at 9 a.m. in the Bethlehem Lutheran Church at Vienna and will continue until funeral services begin at 11 a.m. The Rev. David Larson will officiate with Dorothy Fuller being the organist.
Burial will follow in the Vienna Lutheran Cemetery near Vienna.
Funeral arrangements are announced by the Furness Funeral Home at Clark.
She was born May 3, 1920, near Alcester, the daughter of Leonard and Ellen (Carlson) Sternquist. She was the second of four children. Wilma grew up on the family farm near Alcester attending Cole grade school and Alcester High School. After graduation in 1938, Wilma moved to San Francisco until being called home by the family to help with the farm during WWII. Just after the end of WWII she met a dashing young man (with lots of hair) from Sioux Falls, who became her husband.
Wilma and Leonard Holmstrom were married March 7, 1949, in Sioux Falls. They lived in Alcester, farming with Wilma's father until they purchased their own farm in Vienna in 1953. Wilma and Leonard farmed this land until shortly before Leonard's death in 1990 when Wilma moved into Vienna where she lived until 2011. In the fall of 2011, Wilma moved to Robbinsdale, Minn., and as she was quick to tell people — she moved to an apartment community for ACTIVE seniors. She remained independent until shortly before her death.
Her children remember her as a humble woman with a large heart. She lived her Christian faith by example; extending generosity to family and neighbors alike. Wilma was a long-time member of Bethlehem Lutheran Church in Vienna and its circle and WELCA group and also a long-time organist. Her vision for the youth of Bethlehem Church was forethought in her mind as well as a short time ago, she gave a substantial gift to the church and began the Bethlehem Scholarship fund. Although Wilma could be very generous, she was frugal by nature having grown up during the Depression. Her supply of bread bags and egg cartons caused her daughters-in-law to shake their heads on more than one occasion. (It should be noted that that sense of frugality was not passed on to all of her sons.)
Wilma enjoyed quilting, pinochle and politics. Nothing delighted her more than a rousing political debate around the family dinner table. It has been rumored that Wilma started more than one of these debates, just to have the entertainment of listening to her family's opposing political opinions. She stayed interested in politics until her death, discussing the current presidential debates with her morning coffee group on a regular basis. These discussions were so enjoyable to her, she attended coffee time each day at her apartment complex — despite the fact that she never drank coffee.
We celebrate Wilma Holmstrom as a loving wife, mother, mother-in-law, sister, grandmother, great-grandmother and friend.
She is survived by three sons, Gary (Marlys) of Dearborn, Mich., Tony (Vicki) of Golden Valley, Minn., and Caroll of Rogers, Minn.; two daughters-in-law, Debbie of Willow Lake and Mary of Volga; a sister, Arla Roduner of Alcester; 11 grandchildren, Tonya, Jodi, Kristin, Katie, Kari, Sara, Amy, Evan, Benett, Damon and Derek; seven great-grandchildren; and numerous nieces, nephews, family members and friends.
Wilma was welcomed into heaven by her husband, Leonard in 1990, sons Oren in 2002 and Grant in 2008, a granddaughter, Janna in 2008, siblings Marion and Orland and her parents.
