The Trevor Horn Band return to Rewind Festival this summer!
Photograph (C) Lorne Thomson
Influential and innovative Musician and Producer Trevor Horn joins the line-up at this year's Rewind North Festival 2017! We caught up with him to talk 'Video Killed the Radio Star', producing iconic tracks and timeless music…
Following their set at Rewind Henley last year, Trevor recalls how he loved it so much, they couldn't wait to perform at the festival again:
"I played Rewind Henley last year, which was great. I liked the audience so much; they were so nice and we [the band] had such a good time playing. I said 'I'd love to play for you again, you've been such a great audience' and then we were booked for two Rewinds this year!"
Known for producing classic hits such as 'Relax' by Frankie Goes to Hollywood, I ask what audiences can expect from The Trevor Horn Band's set this year:
"We play a few Frankie [goes to Hollywood] songs, we play an instrumental version of 'Two Tribes' and we play 'Relax', but we do 'Video killed the Radio Star' and 'Slave to the Rhythm' too. Most of the songs we play are quite fast; I don't think we can play any ballads in the afternoon!"
One of pop music's timeless classics, 'Video killed the Radio Star' is a crowd favourite and continues to delight generations of music fans across the world:
"It's had the most amazing life; the record is so bonkers. Originally, the idea behind The Buggles was - and you've got to remember that we had this idea in 1978 - was that it was a guy at a Record Label making records on his computer, inventing bands and that's who The Buggles were".
The Trevor Horn Band perform at Rewind Festival North on Saturday 5th August 2017.

11/21/2011—The U15G Barca traveled to Columbia, MD for the Columbia Fall Classic this past weekend. It was the first tournament for the team after getting back together from the high school soccer season. On Saturday, Barca got off to a fantastic start earning a 2-0 win over Seneca Angles (MD). They showed up ready to play later that afternoon and fought hard against Freedom Hurricanes (MD) coming away with a 2-1 win. After a successful day on Saturday team Barca enjoyed team bonding and prepared for an early morning game on Sunday. Playing with a new determination and attitude Barca showed up against a strong MSI Crush (MD) team and played their best game of the tournament. Fighting for every 50/50 ball down to the whistle they came away with a 0-0 tie.
With the early morning result Barca controlled their destiny. A win or tie would crown them tournament champions. The Barca stormed the Thunder SC (MD) right from the first whistle, playing with that newly found determination and tenacity. They held patient while continuously attacking the Thunder SC and it paid off late in the second half with a picture perfect goal. A through ball from the midfield played perfectly to a striker who took the ball with speed to the end line and slotted a cross to the back post where the left flank midfielder came streaking through to pound the ball into the back of the net. The rather new group of girls came together for the first time this fall and could not have made their parents and coaches more proud. The new determination and new mentality of fighting for every ball and playing strong for every minute of the game earned them the title of tournament champions!
Congratulations to the players, parents and coaches!

Plugin \ Miscellaneous
Game Planner is a WordPress plugin that allows you to organize events for online multiplayer games.
Can be used for example to create Instances and Raids for MMORPG games, to organize Clan Wars for a First Person Shooter, to plan Tournaments for Online Sport Games and more.
Create a Game
Games are used in the events and determine the roles available during the creation of an event, the default image associated with a game and if the name of the character is required.
Game Planner – Create a Game
Create an Event
The core of Game Planner are the events, with them you can plan online Instances, Raids, Clan Wars, Deathmatches, Tournaments and so on.
Game Planner – Create an Event
Event Card
Event Cards are used to show details about specific events and to collect subscriptions from the registered players. The Event Card button available in the TinyMCE editor allows you to easily include Events Cards in your posts, pages or custom post types.
Game Planner – Include an Event Card in a post
Events Table
Events tables are used to list events related to a specific game or the overall list of events. The Events Table button available in the TinyMCE editor allows you to easily include Events Tables in your posts, pages or custom post types.
Game Planner – Include an Events Table in a post
The Subscription
The registered players will be able to subscribe to your events simply by visiting a post, page or custom post type that includes an Event Card or an Events Table.
Game Planner – Subscribe to an Event
Approve an Event
The approval process of an event allows you to move an event from the Pending status to the Approved status. Approved events will be automaticaly closed to new subscriptions and the approved and rejected players will be notified with an email ( if the email option has been selected ). Without emails the players subscribed to the event will still be able to get information about the status of the event by visiting their subscriptions log.
Game Planner – Approve an Event
The Subscription Log
All the registered players have the capability to access the log of their subscription in the back-end of your website. This log is useful to let them keep track of all their subscriptions and see the related status.
Game Planner – Visit the Subscriptions Log
Supported Games
It's impossible to provide a list of the supported games, in general terms this plugin gives you the ability to create your custom games and for each game you will be able to define a set of roles ( a maximum of ten roles are supported for each game ) and if the character is enabled or disabled. Let's see some practical example.
With an MMORPG you would create for example a game named "World of Warcraft" with Tank, Healer and DPS as the roles and the character enabled. Then you would create the "Karazhan" event ( associated with the "World of Warcraft" game ) and set as the required roles two Tanks, two Healers and six DPS. Your subscribed players will be able to subscribe to the "Karazhan" event, assume one of the required roles and enter the name of the character associated with the subscription.
With an FPS you would create for example a game named "Call of Duty" with the Soldier and the Sniper as the roles and the character disabled. Then you would create the event "Clan War against ABC team" and set as the required roles eight soldiers and two snipers. Your subscribed players will be able to subscribe to this new event and assume one of the two required roles, the name of the character won't be required during the subscription process.
With a sport game you would create for example a game named "Soccer 2015", set a single default role named "Standard Player" and the character disabled. Then you would create the event "Soccer Tournament with my friends" and set as the required roles 32 "Standard Player". Your subscribed players will be able to subscribe to this event and assume the "Standard Player" role, the name of the character won't be required during the subscription process.
Maximum number of supported players
There is no limit on the maximum number of players supported in a single event, you can for example create an MMORPG instance that requires only five players or a big tournament with 1000 players.
The "Player" WordPress role
Subscriptions to the events are reserved only to the registered players. The "Player" is a special WordPress role created by Game Planner with two capabilities, a custom capability created and used only by Game Planner which allows the user to subscribe to the events ( namely "dagp_subscribe_to_events" ) and a default capability which allows the user to visit his subscription log on the back-end ( namely "read" ).
Don't worry about the security of your WordPress environment, the users logged in as a "Player" have no other capabilities other that the two mentioned above. For more information about the WordPress roles and capabilities check out Roles and Capabilities .

According to a recent survey, the rate of polygamy in Senegal declined marginally in 2015 in comparison to previous years. But the results of another study, which outlines the reasons why more Western-educated men in Senegal are entering into polygamous marriages, is set to get people talking. The overwhelming majority of the men interviewed gave similar responses and the study outlines the seven most popular reasons men gave for taking a second, third or fourth wife.
The first was that the additional wife was "a decision by my mother" since the first, second or third wife was taken without her consent. In Senegal, there is a privileged relationship between Senegalese mothers and their sons, especially in the case of the eldest and the last son, known as 'thiaat'. Added to that is the strong notion that the mother is the stabilising factor in the family and hence can introduce that quality by selecting a wife for her sons.
The second is that the decision was "a sacred one made by my marabout". The majority of Senegalese are Muslim (95%) and nearly every Muslim individual or family has a marabout, who is basically a spiritual guide and has an influential role in family matters. In many instances, the women chosen by these 'holy and wise men' are selected from the same daaras or religious school or area as their husband.
The third reason given for taking another wife is to lighten the workload. As one respondent said, "I wanted to make her (the first wife) work much lighter and easier." In the national vernacular, this reason is better articulated by the expression 'dama la outalrak'. The literal translation is: "I decided to choose a younger sister for her."
The fourth reason is: "My wife cannot have children and I need at least one." In such cases, it is often, but not always, the first wife who suggests to the husband that he takes a second wife.
The fifth reason given, which is tied to family obligation, is: "The woman is my uncle's daughter and I cannot refuse." In this case, it is the uncle who will oblige his nephew to take his daughter into wedlock. Refusals very often lead to family disputes or discord.
The sixth reason is "it is my father who selected and paid the bride price for me". When this reason is proffered to the first wife, she is expected to put herself in her husband's position and be easily convinced.
Finally, the humanitarian reason damakoyeureum is given. The translation from Wolof would be: "She was in a difficult situation and I only meant to help her out but eventually it turned into a marriage."
The power in marital relations may rest overwhelmingly with men but according to a recent study conducted by the Institute for Research and Development, 80% of divorce cases are initiated by women. In Dakar alone, 10 205 couples divorced in 2015 and 893 since the beginning of 2016. This at least demonstrates a shift in the possibility of more equal marriages, however subtle it may be.

I'm reading with Lauren Kaye at the Gypsy Hill Tavern for Beyond Words on 2 May. 7.30 onwards, details here … Beyond Words Poetry London
Come Into The Garden, Bird …
It's time for Mixed Borders again, the collaboration between London Parks and Gardens Trust and The Poetry School (where I work) which puts 30-odd poets in London's unusual green spaces for Open Garden Squares Weekend (17/18 June – although I'll just be there on the Saturday). In 2015, I was up in the roof-top vegetable patch of a Japanese investment bank; in 2016, in a private square in Notting Hill. This year, I'm in the Dean of Southwark Cathedral's back garden. There's room for me, a pond and a handful of visitors – and I'm looking forward to it hugely.
Diving into research, I'm learning about the industrial, artistic and waterside heritage of the area, and will be writing a series of poems on those themes to hang in the Dean's trees. Read this book and this book and you'll see where my ideas are coming from.
The first poem is written. Seventeenth century Bankside? It's a bear-baiting town …
'Now You Can Look' (soon)
I'm very excited that my Now You Can Look sequence is going to be published by The Emma Press in September next year, in their art square format. That means Full! Colour! Illustration!
Now You Can Look is a Venn diagram of a book: part historical re-enactment, part fiction, part autobiography. It follows (sorta) the life of a visual artist from the '30s, and what she has to break and remake in order to live the life she wants. We all have to do some of that smash and shuffle to get by, eh?
I love the work of The Emma Press. There's no girl gang I'd rather be part of, and I'm very happy to be working with them.
Here's a bit more about the sequence, and one of its poems.
Joy Incoming
A Joy Forever: Keats and Pleasure. Me and Mike Sims. Poems etc. 5th January 2017. Twelfth Night. Keats House. Wassailling, pretty much. More details anon.
Venn Diagram
I work for the Poetry School. The Poetry School has a poet-in-residence (Ben Rogers) at the forthcoming Poetry in Aldeburgh festival. I also produce live literature shows with my company Jaybird Live Literature, and one of those shows is going to Aldeburgh too. Here's my interview with Ben about the show and my writing. Altogether too many identities.
New Boots & Pantisocracies
Anthology alert! I'm in this one, being cross about the curriculum. Blurb here …
'The week after the [2015 general] election Bill Herbert and Andy Jackson decided to chart the responses of those unacknowledged legislators of the world – poets – to the new dispensation. For the first 100 days of the new government they published a poem a day on their New Boots and Pantisocracies blog, recording life under the new unrealpolitik. Now it is a book by over a hundred of the most compelling and distinguished poets of our time, including Sean O'Brien, Sheenagh Pugh, Daljit Nagra, Claudia Daventry, Ian Duhig, Michael Rosen, Polly Clark, Ian McMillan, George Szirtes and Malika Booker.' Buy it here.
Making it Pay …
In which I reveal what percentage of my annual income comes from being an actual poet compared to all the other poetry-promoting stuff. A panel discussion hosted by the Society of Authors on 26 October, with Tom Chivers, Tamar Yoseloff and me. Get your (possibly tax deductible) tickets here.

Uh-Oh. Big Calico Cornered by Li'l Kitten
Shhh! Little Calico Sleeping! Don't Disturb!
Social Harmony, Inner Tranquility, and Better Living Through Baseball
These are without a doubt, the cutest kitties in the world!
I can't say that I disagree!
It's completely true. But won't someone play with the kitten????
She is trying her best to make friends with O'Malley, and he's slowly coming to accept her presence when she gets close. If another cat will play with her, he'll probably be the one.
Ornette flees the room or has a hissy fit when she comes near, which is weird because he's normally the most easygoing, tolerant, and friendly cat I ever met. He never met a creature he didn't like, until now. Maybe it's because the first time she met him, she jumped on his head. :)
The calicos would like just to be left alone. They aren't much for playing with the other cats, although Gabby will chase O'Malley from time to time.

The formal sunken garden at the Elizabethan Gardens on Roanoke Island is about a twenty minute drive from the beaches of Nags Head, but will take a visitor back to the time of Elizabeth I
in England. It was she who sent the first English colony to the new world in 1587. They landed here on Roanoke Island and for a time lived beside the native tribes. But alas, as resupplies from England were delayed by war with Spain, they did not survive. When help finally came they had disappeared, and became known as the "Lost Colony". The Gardens are a beautiful tribute to the area's history, and a botanical wonder today.

Private room
2 guests
1 bedroom
1 bed
This 12X12 Ocean Viewing Room with deck and double bed has a phenomenal unobstructed view of the Pacific Ocean. It's one of our finest rooms. You will have access to the Yoga Hale, its kitchen and bath.
The space
This room has one of our most surreal views, overlooking a 500 acre ranch, giving a panoramic view of the coastline.
Trade Winds escort the freshest air on the planet right into your room. This room offers a comfortable double size bed; spacious lanai (deck) shared flush toilet, a hot shower, and vanity sink as well as a fully equipped kitchen in the same complex along with free WiFi.
The Community Kitchen / Social Area is an easy 100 feet stroll along our level driveway.
Our spacious and open 11 acre property is surrounded by a buffer of jungle and features 150+ trees with 30 or so kinds of tropical fruit. You're welcome to enjoy the freshest fruit possible whenever they're ripe!
Swimming is half a mile away at Isaac Kepo'okalani Hale Park, one of the few safe places for swimming on this rugged, extremely scenic, coast.
A body-temperature warm-pond park is just a half mile further, as well as excellent snorkeling in the wave-protected Kapoho Tide Pools with dozens of corals, and thousands of brightly colored fish.
The nearly constant lava-flow area is just half an hour to the West of us, and perfect for a sunset, or sunrise, hike where you'll often see a cascade of red-hot lava plunging 50 or 60 feet into the ocean boiling below. Truly awesome! A peak experience for most of our guests.
Shopping, a natural foods market, and delicious restaurants are 10 minutes away in Pahoa town. Several large Farmer Markets operate on the weekends too.
We have a 1000 square foot Yoga Hale for small groups and events with a phenomenal view of the Pacific. We have a resident yoga teacher that hosts yoga classes for guests daily at 8 am for $12.
Our teak Meditation Pavilion was made in Bali and is, to us, a very holy and special place for prayer and reflection. We don't preach, or otherwise "reach out"...., it's simply there if you would like some peace and tranquility - which is, as most people tell us, is our main product. :-)
Check-in time is 3 pm or after, and we ask that you please arrive no later than 8 pm to ensure someone is awake and available to show you to your cabin. Late check-ins can be arranged, but you have to let us know ahead of time. Keep us informed in your route to us.
The cost contained herein is all inclusive covering the required Hawaii Hotel Room Tax and the Hawaii General Excise Tax (13.25%).
Check out our reviews on AirBNB! They speak for themselves. KMEC is the best value around for places under $100.
Mahalo Nui Loa,
Len & the gang
Guest access
Guests have full access to all of the community spaces including: community kitchen with fridge and cooking space, dining gazebo and picnic tables, 3 full bathrooms on property, 1 half bathroom by yoga hale, meditation pavilion open 24 hours, yoga hale, and always welcome to walk throughout the 11 acre organic fruit orchard.
Interaction with guests
We will be happy to direct you to all of our local wonders and our community happenings. Guests are welcome to come to daily yoga classes at 8 am for $12. We hold free meditation sittings twice a week and upon request, so we are happy to share guided meditation and discussion with any guests that are interested.
Also, we offer airport pickup and drop off for $70 one-way, or $140 round-trip only for Hilo International Airport. This must be arranged ahead of time to ensure availability.
First and foremost, our staff serve with Aloha--the loving spirit of the Hawaiian islands. Let us know if you need anything or have any questions before and during your stay with us. We are knowledgeable of all the great sightseeing, tours, beaches, etc. that the Big Island has to offer and are happy to share our recommendations with you. Below are some basic guidelines that we follow here at KMEC to honor Mother Nature and the sacred space we have created. Mahalo!
Check-in time is 3 pm or after, and we ask that you please arrive no later than 8 pm to ensure someone is awake and available to show you to your cabin. Late check-ins can be arranged, but you have to let us know ahead of time.
Check-out time is 12 pm. You are welcome to stick around and use the communal space, but we ask that you are out of your cabin by 12 pm so that housekeeping can clean and prepare it for the next guest.
There is a plastic bin in each cabin for food storage of dry goods. Our cabins are integrated with nature and food left out in the open can draw ants or mice into the cabin, especially for longer stays. We have a large fridge in the community kitchen for guests to use, as well as labels to write your cabin name if you would prefer to leave your dry goods in the kitchen.
We have an amazing selection of tropical fruits in our orchard. Our staff regularly harvest from the trees and properly clean the fruit. You are welcome to enjoy the fruit that is in the fruit basket in the community kitchen. If there is no fruit left in the basket, please find one of our volunteers to pick and clean the fruit for you.
We comfortably exist on a large solar electric system, some propane, and mostly catchment rainwater. You don't have to scrimp, but we do ask that you be mindful of your use to conserve these kinds of "off grid" systems. The entire property is off grid but you will still experience the luxuries of "on grid" living including full flush toilets, instant hot water, hot showers, delicious filtered drinking water, and electricity in every cabin. We even have 2 high-efficiency washing machines onsite, and offer laundry service to guests for a fee of $8.
Because we are a completely off grid community, all of our showers, sinks, and laundry runoff water goes directly back into nature. We have food growing on the property that is fed by this water and anything that is in it. Therefore, we encourage the use of eco-friendly products. All soaps, cleaning supplies, laundry detergent, fabric softener, etc. on property are eco friendly and many are homemade by our volunteers with simple, healthy ingredients. As our guest it is certainly not mandatory to use eco friendly products, but if possible please use this as an opportunity to choose shampoo, shower gel, and soaps that are healthier for you and the environment. If interested, we are happy to provide feedback and guidance on good brands that have natural eco friendly ingredients.
KMEC is a strictly vegetarian facility. Meat eating and non-vegetarian guests are most welcome at KMEC. However, no meat, fish, fowl or eggs (both fertile and infertile) can be prepared in the kitchens on the property. If you are new to vegetarian cooking and you'd like to experience some beautiful vegetarian meals made with fresh local ingredients, we do have an onsite chef offering breakfast for $12 as well as lunch and dinner for $20. We will make every effort to accommodate you and provide you with the most enjoyable stay possible.
KMEC is a drug, alcohol, tobacco and intoxicants free center. Our focus is on meditation, spirituality, healing our body, giving peace to our soul and healthy living. The owners and our staff totally abstain from the use of drugs, alcohol, tobacco and intoxicants on the property (and for many this practice carries over to everyday life off the property too). We recognize that not all of our guests are similarly oriented and you will be welcome in any event. Feel free to advise our Director of your particular preferences, if any, with regard to these issues and we will make every effort to accommodate you.
KMEC is a place that promotes non-violence, truthfulness, humility, purity, selfless service, meditation and healthy living. KMEC does not discriminate based on age, race, religion or sexual preferences.

Kirpal Meditation and Ecological Center is a half mile from the ocean on the eastern tip of the Big Island of Hawaii, approximately seven miles from the small village of Pahoa. The 10-acre ocean-view property is blessed with average daytime temperatures of 85° F year-round, and 65° F at night, with cool, fragrant trade winds, surrounding tropical flora, including old growth mangoes, nearby swimming, surfing and snorkeling.
This property was once a papaya farm and is now newly planted with bamboo, papaya, palms, banana and many other fruit trees. The octagonal Balinese meditation pavilion is set among shade-trees with an expansive view of the ocean. The island wildlife is all around us – a variety of birds by day and at night there's the pleasant chirping of Coqui frogs – and there are no snakes. Natural wonders include Volcanoes National Park, for lava and crater viewing, volcanically heated warm ponds and steam vents (as outdoor saunas) and other wonders of the lush tropics.
Kmec opened in the summer of 2008 for pre-arranged seasonal meditation retreats and private meditation-vacations on request. Additionally, we would like to extend our welcome to Big Island travelers offering cozy cottages and open air kitchen and bath. We offer daily free meditation instructions and practices at our beautiful Balinese meditation pavillion. Additionally, we offer Yoga and nature tours upon guest's request (donations accepted).

So, it turns out I was wrong about Microsoft's IE8 standards-mode rendering switch - they're proposing that web authors use either a meta element or an HTTP header as an opt-in.
My initial gut reaction: wow, that sucks.( cut because it's web-geeky and looong )
So: flip the default around, and this is a good idea. Otherwise, it sucks.
Finally, a word from the lemurs.


text: Brendan Reese, the Earl of Clayworth, has no intention of ever marrying again. He's still trying to clean up the mess his first wife left him, even years after her death. To all the world, Clayworth is the epitome of the perfect English gentleman, and he so wishes that image was the truth. But the truth, as it often can be, is ugly. After all, a perfect English gentleman would never have a traitor for a mother. And unless Clayworth can find the evidence his late wife hid, he could face the gallows himself. But a chance encounter with the reckless Cordelia Avery gives him the best lead he's had in years to finally putting his family's past to rest. Unfortunately, focusing on anything other than Miss Avery seems a nearly impossible task.

As a Gift
You are trying to get someone you care about a good pair of grips for this crazy fitness sport they are involved in because they seem to always have messed up hands. You may not have any idea what you are looking for in order to make a smart decision. Here is the objective information you need to know about choosing the right grips. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any further questions!
Do they cover the areas where calluses and rips occur?
Rips are injuries to the skin resulting from friction in a specific area on the hand. Athletes typically experience rips under the middle, ring and index fingers, as well as the middle of the palm. There is also a spot on the little finger side of the wrist due to a certain gripping technique on the rings called a false grip. Grips should cover these areas. Our patent pending design covers these without being excessive to ensure protection and proper movement of the hand.
Material type, texture and thickness.
Grips predominately come in leather, but there are also cloth fiber and rubber products on the market. Leather is the most proven material as it is the material for the grips that Olympic gymnasts wear because of durability. For CrossFit™, traditional gymnastics grips are too thick. Thickness of the material is important to CrossFitters to be able to have a good grip feel on the bar or rings. However, if the material is too thin it will cause uncomfortable bunching between the hand and the bar. We use leather that is nearly half the thickness of traditional gymnastics grips, which still allows for proper protection and function while thick enough to not bunch up in your hand while doing pull ups.
Like clothing proper fit when it comes to grips is extremely important. Men and women may have the same palm length dependent on the on the individuals height, but women have a more narrow palm width. Current grips for the CrossFit™ market are sized according palm length are unisex and will inevitably not be the deal fit for every individual, especially women. Victory Grips are the only grips for functional fitness that have designs for men and women to increase the best possibly fit for all.

Women Who Code recently hosted their first ever conference CONNECT 2016 at the Galvanize Pioneer Square in Seattle. The two-day conference featured some of the technology industry's most influential leaders. Keynote speakers for the event included Nandini Ramani the VP of Engineering at Twitter, Regina Wallace-Jones the Head of Security Operations at Facebook and a member of the Women Who Code Advisory Board, Alaina Percival the CEO and Board Chair of Women Who Code, and Mike Curtis the VP of Engineering at Airbnb.
It's no secret that there is a significant gender gap in technology. Speakers at CONNECT 2016 offered tips for how to rise the ranks of technology companies as a women. Here's an excerpt from a GeekWire write-up:
Observe people in your organization. "It could be people you admire and think are successful or…people in your organization where you don't like what they're doing," Hamilton said. Through close observation, you can develop your own leadership style for the people who work around you. Once you know their personalities and quirks, you know better how to approach leading them.
Forgive yourself and embrace mistakes. Too many women beat themselves up over their mistakes and feel bad about themselves as a result. However, it's important to remember that the perfect person never grows — it's mistakes that help us to see our weaknesses and to improve ourselves. "Once you learn to forgive yourself, then you will be able to receive the feedback as a gift and mistakes as the most valuable things that were ever handed to you," Chang said. "It's important to pick [yourself] up and move on."
Insist on diversity. One of the biggest barriers to women in tech is that industry leaders often rely on hiring who they already know. Because men dominate the industry, they hire other men. "They know Jim, Joe, and Jack," Strom said. "They don't know Jill, Joan, and Joanne…You have to get out of that. Get in the position…to insist that [they] look at candidates of diversity."

Building frontend web applications using backbone.js & brunch.io
02 Feb 2012
Last sunday I decided to grow up my javascript skills by playing with modern and cool libraries.
I planned to test:
- a language abstraction coffeescript
- a frontend MVC framework that deals with RESTful APIs spine.js, backbone.js
- a template engine (eco, coffeekup)
First of all, I tried spine.js that is a frontend framework that provides:
- bootstrapping tools (project generation…)
- views
- models
- routing
- testing tools
- …
But I trashed it cause of hard jQuery dependency (<troll>I hate jQuery</troll>).
So, next I discovered brunch.io that is a backbone.js projects bootstrapper that does quite the same things as spine.js with the possibility to replace jQuery by zepto.js.
The stack here is composed of:
- underscore.js
- backbone.js
- jasmine
- coffeescript
- css tools (boilerplate…)
- brunch.io (project configuration and class bootsrapping)
Test project
My favorite RESTful API to test new client is github's one, cause it has been well designed and CORS requests are allowed.
If you planned to write a client side application on top of that kind of library, make sure the service is consumable via XHR, otherwise you'll have to make a server side "reverse proxy application", and then doing the job client side will make no sence (IMHO).
Lets start the project:
Now directory tree and configs has been created with default assets.
runs an express.js instance that delivers compiled files (just open http://localhost:3000 in your favorite browser).
Backbone main concepts
Backbone routers is the navigation layer that links UI actions to the views.
Sample router:
Views are controller classes that deal with your business models and the UI. Each view as an
el member that is the DOM element where rendering will be displayed.
Starting a view via brunch.io:
Then with a piece of logic:
A model is a business entity, that is linked to an HTTP ressource using the url attribute.
May be persisted and fetched from local storage to.
Collection is a set of model objects, as models, they may be linked to an HTTP ressource.
That's all for basics. For now, my application only lists issues for a given project. I'll maybe add more features (like create / update / delete issues) later. You'll find a live demo here.
See you.

But President Viktor Yanukovych's dramatic decision to hold early elections and form a new unity government while granting amnesty for those involved in the violence was met with scepticism or even hostility by nearly 40,000 protesters who gathered on central Kiev's main square -- many of them frustrated the leader was not stepping down.
"Elections in December are not enough -- he has to leave now," said one demonstrator, 34-year-old Oleh Bukoyenko. Ukraine's parliament adopted a flurry of opposition-backed laws within hours of the deal's signing.
They need the president's backing before entering into force. One of the unexpected key votes was to amend a law that could see opposition leader Yulia Tymoshenko freed from prison where she has been since just after the president took power in 2010. The chamber also approved a call on the president to dismiss acting Interior Minister Vitaliy Zakharchenko -- a hate figure in the opposition who is blamed for ordering the police to open fire on unarmed protesters.
The new unity government to be formed would have the authority to reverse the inflammatory decision Yanukovych made in November to ditch a historic deal promising a path to EU membership in favour of closer ties to former master Russia.
But many protesters told AFP that the deal represented too little and did little to repair days of vicious bloodletting in which police used snipers and armoured vehicles against demonstrators who fought back with bats while wearing makeshift protection.
"These steps were what we needed but I think it is now too late after all the blood that has been spilt," said 58-year-old Sergiy Yanchukov.
"It was a crime against humanity and Yanukovych should be sent to The Hague (home of the International Criminal Court)." Kiev authorities have put the death toll from the past few days at 77. But opposition medics said more than 60 protesters were shot dead by police on Thursday alone -- a toll that combined with the 28 victims on Tuesday put the final count at nearly 100 dead.

Story about CKUT in the 80s by Vince Tinguely
Vince Tinguely current host of the radio show Kitchen Kitchen Bang Bang Tuesdays noon – 2pm , previous co-host of Victorious and Invincible and previous to that In from the Cold. AT CKUT's 25th Anniversary event, Vince read a piece about what it was like to be a part of campus community radio when C/C radio was still in diapers.
CKUT 25th Anniversary – Logic Johnson!
As you may have heard, CKUT had a pretty great party to celebrate our 25 years on air. One of the highlights was a unique rap written & performed live by Logic Johnson, host of Listen You Smell Something. It was a one-time only performance but it's too good to not share. Check it out!
CKUT Veteran: Janice Dayle
The Wednesday Morning After show soaks in some morning sun rays with Janice Dayle – founder of Positive Vibes. Since 1983, Janice has been involved with the station being witness to its evolution into the infamous CKUT. She explains how the station became and continues to be the strongest supporter of all types of Black music in Montreal. Don't forget to tune into Positive Vibes Thursdays 3pm to 5pm and Bhum Bhum Time Sundays at 4pm.
In a sense, [CKUT] was the same as it is now – a big happy family.
– Janice Dayle, 25 years with CKUT
CKUT Veteran: Sheldon Harvey
The Tuesday Morning Show chatted with Sheldon Harvey about his 25 years at the station and radio in general. The International Radio Report host explains the irony of his show and why listener input is so significant. Harvey also delves into the shocking and dirty business that is commercial radio. Remember to tune into The International Radio Report Sundays at 10:30am!
There's one technology that's remained constant. And that's radio.
-Sheldon Harvey, 25 years with CKUT
CKUT Veteran: Rufo Valencia
The Monday edition of The Morning After Show talked with the 20 year vet Rufo Valencia of his experiences working with CKUT. He walks us through how he ended up at the great 90.3, his various positions, and what he hopes for the future of the station. Rufo also expresses the importance of new volunteers at the station on how they keep him and radio fresh and young.
CKUT so far, because its based on the efforts of volunteers, it's a free discourse. And that's pretty much at the essence of freedom in a way.

Good Morning
Arundel Eccentrics
Today is a very special day
in our calender.
It's Adoption Day.
A day even more special to us than a birthday.
This is my son Jay
He now lives in California.
It will be an even more wonderful day this year.
The first as a father himself.
Here's our story.....................
This year for his birthday
I found the perfect gift....
I parked the car and as I got out
It kept the goose going for a bit longer.
you can put them in any room.....
I always wanted children and in the
traditional sense it was a baby.
Over the years my ex husband and I
went through all the normal stuff to achieve that,
but it just never happened.
We so wanted a child and
decided we would look at adoption.
Funnily enough my neighbour of the time
Just reminded me.
They had a lovely adopted daughter, Katy.
I locked myself out and went to theirs for help.
We had a cup of tea and chatted.
"Why don't you find out about adoption?"
They gave me the details of the society they had gone through.
Funny how things evolve hey?
We went to an adoption society
in Camberwell, London,
for an information evening.
The social worker told the small group,
about 3 case histories.
Jay's was one of them.
He was four and a half.
By chance...or maybe not...after the talk,
when everyone was chatting and drinking coffee,
we were looking at Jay's photo
and I made a comment such as
" Oh look how beautiful he is"....
The social worker just happened to be behind us.
" Would you like to find out more about that little boy?"
" Oh yes we really would."
The social worker assigned to our case hadn't
met Jay herself at that point,
and on her return from seeing him for the first time,
she stopped at a phone box...
yes.. we did use them, then,
to excitedly inform me
"You are perfect for each other,
your temperaments match each other completely."
Something happened..to this day I don't know what it was,
whereby, although we had met Jay a few times
he had never been to the house and
I felt they were trying to move
him from his foster placement quickly,
for some reason known only to them
and on one of my visits the social worker
asked if I would take Jay home
the next time I came to see him.
This was only a few days later.
I drove over in my yellow 2cv,
which was to later become
such a huge part of our lives,
out and about all over the place.
When I arrived he had pulled
all his pictures off the wall
and was packed and ready.
Taking my hand he said
" Come on Mum, lets go."
He was 4 years old at the time.
Things happened in such a whirl and when
I arrived home I was almost in shock.
I hadn't had time to adjust.
I was working at a play school at the time
and rather arrogantly
I thought I would be brilliant.
Used to 4 year olds, imagined it'd be a breeze.
But brilliant doesn't happen overnight
and I am now a firm believer
that post natal depression
isn't entirely a physical thing.
Also, you expect, I expected,
to feel a huge surge of love immediately.
It doesn't just happen,like a bolt from the blue.
It grows and like all relationships,
you get out what you put in.
Suddenly, here I was with
a little person 24 hours a day.
It was quite a shock to the system.
I felt emotional all the time.
Lost and dazed in this new world
that was so exciting,
but that I was having trouble with managing.
I wanted it to be perfect and
I wasn't making a good enough job of things.
I didn't really know what Jay ate,his likes and dislikes.
I struggled to feed him...I had never cooked convenience food,
veggie whole foods were my forte.
His foster family cooked in a very different way.
He was used to meals coming out of tins and boxes.
In desperation I asked him
" What do you really, really like?"
and in a quiet little voice he replied,
" I like cheesecake"
"Thanks be."
I proceeded to make
the whole thing,from scratch.
Jay didn't like it and barely touched it.
" I thought you liked cheesecake?"
" Yes, but out of a packet!"
We got through those
early hurdles
very soon after.
I realised within a very short time,
I loved this little boy,
more than I had loved
anyone in my life.
And that's the point I wanted to make....
I never in a million years thought you could
have such strength of feeling for a child
that you had not produced yourself.
Prior to that,I had spent years
feeling such intense jealousy
for all my friends who seemed
to be having babies with ease.
|Ha Ha I've still got that shirt.
Cant bear to throw it away.
Jay and I went from strength to strength.
Our relationship so strong that when he was at college
he came home one day and proclaimed,
"My mates at college are so jealous of our relationship."
"Why Jay?"
" Because it's so strong and they
don't have that with their own mothers."
|Potential fashion designer
He had such style even then!
" How do they know?"
" Ma, they just see us together."
Over the years, I have almost burst
with pride over Jay's achievements.
From an early age he took a huge interest in clothes,
loved his skateboard, loved to travel.
After working for a menswear fashion degree,
at the local Worthing Northbrook College,
and graduating with flying colours,
( incidentally, one of the first colleges
in Europe to offer this degree)
he went from strength to strength.
Not the first time, when he borrowed
money to get out there for interviews.
On his return, he said they felt he was good,
but needed more experience.
"So Jay, what are you going to do next?"
" Get more experience , of course"
So that's what he did and
through sheer hard work, gritty determination and talent, he went to NYC via Ecko Unltd.
He not only gained experience there,
he met the gorgeous Krista, his wife .
Look at him now, a successful menswear designer in California.
When he first arrived in the US he was designing for
...a skateboard company..funny hey?
After all the childhood and teenage
years he hurtled
round on his own board.
Now I think of it,
it's still stored in our loft.
I never know what to get my lovely son for gifts.
He's a menswear designer and a good one.
So what can you buy someone who
is very specific about clothes.
is very specific about clothes.
He has a sneakers collection to die for.
It's probably into the hundreds.
It must be as he now won't admit to the number.
It must be as he now won't admit to the number.
This year for his birthday
I found the perfect gift....
When I collected my lovely boy,
all those years ago,
all those years ago,
I drove to Ashford in Kent.
Stopping off for a cup of tea
and a freshen up on the way,
I found I was in a small delightful
town called Tenterden.
town called Tenterden.
I parked the car and as I got out
there in the window of the shop in front of me
I spotted the most wonderful
Goose Lamp.
I just had to buy it.
|It became Jay's night light.
In later years it sat in our window in our house in Tarrant Street, Arundel.
When the light was on friends knew we were around
and meant they could drop by for a glass of wine!
So the lamp and my new son came home together.
For many years it was his night light.
We both adored it.
Eventually, when we moved it got broken in transit.
"Oh Ma throw it away"
I couldn't.
It meant so much.
I spent hours sticking it all together.
It didn't exactly look like a work of art when I'd finished,
but it stood up by itself, at least. LOL
It kept the goose going for a bit longer.
Eventually, it was knocked over and beyond repair.
" Ma....NOW chuck it out."
Funny how everything changes when you have a child isn't it?
A few months back he asked if I knew where he could get
one for his new baby's room.
The joy of the internet.
I FOUND it.
In NYC.
In NYC.
They stopped making them years ago,
but the company still had a few of the goose figures
and make them as and when needed.
A few years ago, when Jay
came to Arundel for a holiday
we had a party for he and Krista.
We managed to re-unite all the birth brothers.
All together for the first time ever.
Nass and I miss him terribly.
Oh! I forgot to tell you,
I gained even more
than a wonderful child.
When by ex husband and I
divorced about 20 years ago,
I joined the school PTA to keep me busy.
We organised a massive
Summer Ball
and hence I
was spending more and
more time at Jay's school.
So, my bonus was.....
Dating the gorgeous PE teacher
who I subsequently married and who became
a loving stepfather adoring Jay as much as I do.
and Adoption Day?
Its the day you go to court to make it all official.
Jay wrote a note to the judge saying he wanted to stay with us.
I still have that note and to this day and it still makes me cry.
Adoption Day
has been celebrated every year since.
As important to us, as a birthday.
Be patient, its not an easy journey.
You'll have interviews and social
workers poking into all areas of your life.
But...a million times over..its worth it
Happy Adoption Day
to our wonderful son

It's grown to be a really tight knit, trusting group,

We always wind up having a laugh
over something or other.
I had forgotten this story,
but Peter asked me to re-count it last night.

It's a pretty safe bet that if you ask someone how they're doing this month, they'll answer with some variation of "I'm busy". The question is, busy with what? Become a true ChangeMaker and explore sitting still as a way of falling in love with the world and everything in it. Read Pico Iyer's book of learning to take care of his loved ones, do his job, and hold on to some direction in a madly accelerating world.
How do you turn our current worldwide crisis into an opportunity? Author and SXSW Eco guest Stefan Heck, makes a compelling case for how innovators and entrepreneurs can take advantage of the biggest business opportunity of the past hundred years to create positive change.
Everyone has a dream, but many people don't give themselves permission to follow it, or they get stuck. Linda Rottenberger's new book shows us how to take risks without losing what's dear to you.
Nature is our first and greatest mentor. It's magnificence reminds us of our place in the natural order — helping us to think and act in ever-widening circles, considering the impact of our decisions on the more-than-human world. These five books highlight the important role nature plays in understanding ourselves, our role in the world and in providing solutions to the complex challenges of our time.
Dan Gilbert's most recent TED Talk inspired us dust off this 2006 classic book. We tend to believe that who we are at that moment is the final destination of our becoming. Which, of course, is not only wrong but a source of much of our unhappiness.
How confident do you have to be before you take an action – 100% or something less? Is there a difference between the sexes, and do those differences affect future success? Kay and Shipman tackle these and other provocative questions in their new book.
Drawing on the latest research from anthropology to neuroscience, Frances Moore Lappe argues that the biggest challenge to human survival is our faulty way of thinking about environmental crises and life on earth. Lappé dismantles seven common "thought traps" and offers contrasting "thought leaps" that reveal our hidden power.
Daniel Goleman's new book "Focus: The Hidden Driver of Excellence" is a perfect complement to CNL's work in cultivating attention skills for inner and outer landscapes, and the relationships between them. Goleman adds a third level, that of the "other", the systems view. Great reading!

Spot the trend: Sari-gown
As Indian couturiers attempted to update traditional bridal wear at the recently-concluded PCJ Delhi Couture Week 2013 and India Bridal Fashion Week, the sari-gown emerged as the most exemplary silhouette.
A paradoxical mix of fluidity and construction, the new silhouette combines the six-yard staple's classic structure with the practicality of the zipped-up gown. The result? Light-weight saris that won't come undone when you hit the sangeet dance-floor.
Monisha Jaising embraced the modernity of the style with zero restraint, choosing neon colours and crystal embellishment on the neckline to emphasize her point. Gaurav Gupta's offerings bordered on the risqué, offering up tantalising peeks of skin between lace and net, while Falguni & Shane Peacock's version appeared in full bloom.
Masaba Gupta, also a follower of the bold approach to modern bridal wear, replaced the sari blouse with a deconstructed tuxedo jacket.
Varun Bahl and Anamika Khanna took a more conservative, cautious approach to the sari gown.
Bahl transformed the sari-gown into a lace body suit with a pleated skirt and attached pallu. Three-quarter sleeves and a monochromatic colour palette illustrated the silhouette's timeless appeal.
Tarun Tahiliani, a major proponent of the style for the past few seasons, chose corset cholis to maintain the structure of the bodice.
As for Khanna, the organic nature of the designer's aesthetic was most apparent in a diaphanous white sari-gown, dramatised by the addition of a royal purple cape.

To feel nothing was made of me on Mother's Day(62 Posts)
Hi there
Just looking for a few opinions and also offloading. I'll try and keep this concise.
I'm a pretty grounded woman, very practical and not one that's interested in material things e.g. myself and hubby don't exchange birthday presents, we tend to just buy each other something nice from time to time. We aren't ones for cards either. We don't do enough of this romantic stuff though and it's something we are making more of an effort at. There is a time when you can be too practical and I'm guilty of it.
Yesterday was my first Mother's Day, my daughter was born last May. I dropped loads of hints that yesterday was important to me in the week leading to yesterday, over and over and hubby's friends reminded him not to forget the day. He did and I am really upset. After saying something yesterday morning, at some point in the afternoon I got a petrol station card and hand made chocolates (which he knows I don't like), I'd prefer a Cadbury's Flake, it's not about cost.
I'm just hurt. Loads of people were onto me yesterday asking was I being spoilt etc etc. I ensured he made a fuss of his mother and I made a fuss of mine and I felt like nothing was made of me. I'm so far from a diva, even if this post makes me out to be one, I really am not. I just feel wronged.
I guess for me this is a sensitive thing. I'm a new mum and half the time I don't know if I am doing right or wrong as a mother, my hubby knows this too. I do my best and I love my daughter dearly. Sometimes it would be nice to be made to feel special.
One of the things my husband knows well about me is that I can't stand being taken for granted. I'm the type that worries and thinks about everyone else and so I'm ripe to be forgotten as I don't ask for much. He knows that I won't put up with someone taking this part of my nature for granted. It makes me think that the less you expect, the less you get and it's hurtful when your nearest and dearest take you for granted.
I got really mad at him this morning and now he is furious with me. I'm not dismissing how I feel even if he is furious.
Anyhow thank you for reading.
You're not unreasonable to want to be appreciated on the day. It's all about communication though. You two have obviously set a precedent from how you celebrate other things, and it's unreasonable to expect your DH to know exactly how you want him/your daughter to express their appreciation. Men often don't pick up on hints very well, next time just spell it out and say 'it would be lovely to do X on Mother's Day, can you arrange it please?'
I don't think you're being precious to want to be appreciated, but to me Mother's Day is about appreciating your mum, and while your DD is too little to do that, is it actually Mother's Day that you want celebrated? Or is it more that you want your DH to appreciate you? The two might not connect in his mind - you're his wife, not his mother, so he might not have joined those dots.
I don't think your feelings are unreasonable at all. Your DH could have at least got a card and a box of chocs you like. It's not about cost or the fact your DC is still too young to know the difference, it's about feeling appreciated and that you are a Mother too.
(Although you'll probably get people coming on saying it doesn't matter and you shouldn't get sucked in to the commercialism of cards etc)
I understand how much it hurts, my DH made zero effort yesterday, even a cup of tea would have been nice
Sorry you had such a disappointing first Mother's Day. Congratulations on taking care of your baby for the last ten months! You should be really proud! Since you are usually so no- nonsense seems he misjudged it. MD is a difficult one because different generations and different families are involved! Next year organise something with your mum together and yes make it clear you expect a little luxury and resting for the day!
I didn't do anything this year..I had said I don't want any presents as I wanted to go somewhere my ds would enjoy and remember doing together but I was really ill over the weekend and couldn't do it... We have made another date for it. I took some time to think about being a mother and tried to show them I care. I sent a message to my dil who is a new mother like you just to congratulate her as she has been amazing.
Agree that it's awkward at the baby stage as Mother's Day is really between mother and child..so your do may not have realised he was involved.
I might have come over as harsh - I didn't mean to as totally understand your point of view!
Look up 'love languages' - it's a theory/observation that there are different ways to express love and everyone has their own preferences about which they like to receive.
Eg gift giving (not necessarily big/expensive), quality time, kind words, physical affection...
It can be helpful to have a chat through which kinds you each value, without having to justify why you like what you like. Then it's easier in future to do what your other half values highly, and understand more about where you're both coming from when you have situations like this in future.
If he can make a fuss of his mother, then he should make a fuss of you.
I doubt he forgot, with all the hints you gave him and his friends having reminded him of it.
I would ignore his birthdays and Father's Day. But I hold a grudge, so this may not be the best advice.
I totally understand, but also think it's an odd one for mothers of babies. My DH explained that as I'm not his mother, he wouldn't be doing anything for me on Mothers Day. I actually cooked lunch for his mum yesterday. DH made me a cup of tea and saved me a chocolate hobnob. A bit meh, but I also get it.
YANBU I would have been absolutely gutted in your position.
No Hero1, you didn't come across as harsh, you made some good points.
I think there is a breakdown of communication of sorts between us. My husband knows me well and knows what I value but I will give him the benefit of the doubt that he didn't quite understand what yesterday was as I am so easy going usually. I do think that if he bothered to think about it, he would have understood, as it is now he is ranting about it being another commercial day but he can keep that rubbish because there's a lot more to it and he knows it.
I am also sensitive about how I am doing as a mum, he knows this.
Oh and I am in the middle of the 2 week wait and I may be pregnant or not. Maybe if I am that will explain that I'm so upset!!
It's tricky because yes it would have been nice to have a card but ultimately you have to be grateful for what you do have and that's your daughter. It's hard for me to have patience with these sort of posts knowing that yesterday my sister should have had her first Mother's Day but my niece died in December. It does put things sharply into perspective.
Just don't do anything for Father's Day and go do something with your daughter soon.
What did you do for him on Father's Day last year julia ?
'Dropped loads of hints'
Always makes me feel sad when I hear this.
You shouldn't have had to 'drop hints' and a last minute garage type gift was pretty thoughtless.
You are a new mum.... your first Mother's Day and it wouldn't have hurt him to give that some thought.
Agree with above...I value kind words most and that people are nice on a special day.. Ask you would you like a cup of tea, what would you like to do or watch on TV, can we do anything for you etc. that is what I value. Gifts make me feel it's too materialistic and that I am the one then put on the spot to be the grateful one to do if that makes sense which detracts from the children and the meaning .
The thing is, I was the one who ensured he visited his mum! Then he stayed there half the day with my daughter because I was mad, so I was left on my own. I did eat a lot of chocolate though!
What is he like the rest of the year? Mother's Day is a ridiculous commercialised day that guilts people into buying more stuff they don't actually need, whilst giving you feelings of inadequacy and comparing yourself to others.
If the rest of the year all is good and happy then I wouldn't worry at all.
I got him a lovely card with some lovely words in it and put it into baby's chair for him to get and I got him a bottle of wine that he loves. That's all I wanted too. Two minutes of feeling special.
Don't get me wrong, I am very grateful for my daughter and I had a tough time having her with scares. My parents buried seven of my siblings, five full term babies and two miscarried earlier so maybe it comes from there too.
JC22334, I honestly can't fault my husband most of the time.
ds made something at school which was lovely
I thought he would make me a card (the ex doesn't bother to encourage him)
hinted that I would like one he said he had done enough
I was upset and what has upset me more is that he knew I was upset and still didn't take a few minutes to make me a card
I do feel quite hurt by his attitude he is only 8 but I think that is old enough to get that its a nice thing to do he just cba
And I get fed up with daddy is great when it is me doing all the running about
I don't understand why people "drop hints" when they want something. Just come out and say "I want a fuss made of me on Mothering Sunday" and then hey presto a fuss would be made of you. Simple really.
i did actually say I would really love one of your lovely cards that you make
but he was too busy
YANBU to want a little fuss on your first Mother's Day - we all like to be appreciated but YABU if you simply wanted something to show off to friends who had asked (that kind of thing doesn't bother me but we're not all the same )
As for dropping hints, hints don't work on everyone and men often don't get them. I'm not saying all men btw.
As this is the year of firsts for your family with new baby - first Mother's/Father's Day or birthdays, you could have a about what you would like or expect, ie: card and flowers, or card only with breakfast in bed that kind of thing. There's nothing wrong with asking for what you would like and it will save any hurt feelings later.
Is he usually the type to make an elaborate effort, if not why did you hope he would by dropping hints? Next year speak up about what you want. As you don't tend to mark key dates with gifts I can see why he didn't stir himself. I think if you had to prod him into doing something for his own DM, OH had not the slightest idea the day meant something to you.
Long ago one person I knew said he thought it shouldn't be turned into a second Valentine's Day and people often ask why if they still have their own mothers, do they have to do something extra for their wife or girlfriend. Just my opinion but originally it was the day to honour mothers. Isn't the mother of one's child an significant mother in their life?
I don't think it will make you feel better btw if you 'forget' Father's Day. The only person it would hurt is likely to be you. When it came to Father's Day, contrived occasion or not, I would encourage my DCs to make or buy a card even if DH barely registered the event was due.
Right if you can't fault him most of time. Put this down to one of those things.
I am/was like you. Wanted little shows of gratitude. Dh isn't like that. He saw gift giving as a social obligation.
He thought he showed me he love and appreciation for me by making my packed lunch, or making sure my work uniform was out. I thought he did those things because he was making his own or getting his own clothes out. I would have done these things for him but not seen them as show of love and care.
It caused issues until we started communicating. He knows to get me something thoughtful. I know that when he cooks me dinner it's how he shows love. When he makes sure my car is defrosted (I hate sitting in a freezing car) it's because he loves me.
Neither of us were wrong as such. We are just different. Dh didn't understand why I would pick him up a little gift when I was out.
But communicating with each other has helped us.
I hate hinting. Dh knows not to hint to me, but to tell me out right. We have a rule that if you don't say it out right, you can't get stroppy. Dh knows I am not fussed about Mother's Day, for me the kids are more excited so I let them buy what they want. I don't care what it is. But I like my birthday and like to be spoiled a bit then. So dh makes a really effort for my birthday.
But that's because I have told him, it important to me.
Hope that makes sense.
My husband completely ignored my first mothers day too (yesterday) I'm not surprised. I am disappointed. He did know what the day was. He has also failed to buy mummy type cards for my birthday and Christmas. It might actually be the nail in the coffin for our marriage.
