Donald was AMAZING.....tons of potential there! I'm totally impressed and am now a fan!

My, Peta appears to have gotten into Edyta's old wardrobe. Donald's got some confidence out there and the crowd goes wild (though they may be reacting to Peta's outfit too).
Did CA just say Donald "humped" out there? Would someone please get that woman a date?
CA said he kicked the cha cha's booty, was a crowd pleaser, is full of charisma; Len thought he got overexcited but lost timing, said he needs better control next week; Bruno looks way too giddy already
Look at CA over Donald

Jay Jaffe over at Baseball Prospectus wrote an article about the top pitching staffs in the NL, but it was focused on the Nats. No, he wasn't saying Washington had the top staff, although he did say a few very nice things about visiting the city last week and meeting the fans who finally have legitimate hope. Instead, he was noting how the Nats, in the course of a season or two, have moved into the discussion of top rotations.
First he writes that the Nats added more WARP (its just BP's version of WAR) with starting pitching than any NL team other than the Reds, Pirates, Rockies and Marlins to improve their staff with the addition of Gio Gonzalez and Edwin Jackson. But those Pittsburgh additions include Bedard and Burnett – I have a tough time thinking both of those will end up being good signings, although these projections do include time off due to injury. Regardless, the added WARP for the Nats is 2.5, but Jaffe believes you should "take the over" on what Jackson will contribute, basically guessing that PECOTA underestimates him. And since they are almost tied with the Rockies and the Marlins, if you do give Jackson a little more credit, they are either tied for third best or there all by themselves.
The next thing Jaffe talks about is something fans often wonder – who has the best top two, three, four, five and even six starters. I won't get into the entire set of numbers, you can look here although it is behind a pay wall (sorry, but you should give BP money anyway), but I will tell you where the Nats stack up
- For top two, Strasburg and Zimmermann are about as good as you might think. The Nats two pitcher WARP of 6.9 ranks them 2nd only behind the Phillies (9.3) and Giants (8). It would be even closer if Strasburg was going to pitch more than 160 innings. Read the rest of this entry »

I feel I need to preempt my posts with begging; please do not ban me for this? Thanks.
Today I am expecting to have a formal lesson with a paid professional. The reason I feel it's needed is I have never had one lesson to date. All of the surfing I have accomplished was done by my own gumption to go for it, and encouragement with a little advice along the way from surfers I have met in the shops to in the line up. I am happy to have all the tips by everyone, but I've never had anyone give me dedicated one to one instruction, with corrections where necessary. Hence, my belief is to pay a pro for tutelage to get me to the next level i.e. catching waves and successfully riding them.
Am I making the right move or throwing away money? Lesson is $60 and if I don't need it because surfing is evolutionary related to eventually getting better at it just due to exposure, I rather keep going at my pace, then I can spend the money I saved for new fins or something instead.
Thanks for any help with this

hahaha don't ban me.... naw gruvi it's your money. If you think that is the right way to go, then do it. Surfing, ultimately, is an individual thing because no one else can ride your board with you to help you. it's just you and the ocean. Lessons or not, just go out and have fun! (the only reason why you shouldn't is to save that money for the gas tank!)

In my opinion, once you get the motions down, you're wasting your time Re-learning what the instructor will teach you aside from a few minor tips. Repetition and water time is key from here. From what I understand you don't live near the water, so expect your learning curve to be a little longer with less water time. This is for beginner lessons however. Now, if you're talking coaching lessons at a camp working on turns and maneuvers, that's a different story and I'd say go for it.
Then again it all depends on the instructor too. Most don't know how to teach past beginner level surfing.
If I may ask, who's your instructor? I know you surf chincoteague and I live there... I'm just curious as to who you're going through?

You seem to have a pretty loose budget when it comes to your new hobby. I think you should go ahead with one lesson, and after that, decide if you should continue. I think at the very least, you will pick up some good tips on safety and etiquette, as well as some basic mechanics. These are things that most of us learned the hard way (and slow way).

what is this, mtv made??
Sep 26, 2011, 02:37 PM #6
I think I will save the money (more pizza! ) You and 757 touched on points that convince me I won't benefit beyond what I have been taught already by friends I made out in the surf. I don't need a beginner lesson as I can paddle okay and understand quite a lot of the safety needs. So thanks for affirmation to what I wasn't sure was a waste of time and money or not.
As to Chincoteague, I will be back there this coming Thursday. If you don't mind, please PM me if I can meet up and surf with you if you go out anytime from 9-29 to 10-06? Who do you go out with and what times of day?
Thanks again

One of the best ways to learn anything I think is to watch closely how others do it. So, getting in the water as much as possible and being around others who know what they are doing.
I'm sure if you take a lesson or two, it will give you some helpful tips.
Tell the instructor, what you want help with the most rather then wasting your time learning how to put on sun block.

In the end, all that matters in life is being truly loved
Last week, just after the family had gazed with appropriate awe at Wordsworth's gravestone on a trip to his one-time home town of Grasmere in the Lake District, conversation turned to what we all wanted on our own stone (or 'cenotaph', as my ambitious nine-year-old daughter foresaw) when the dark night finally swallows us up.
My six-year-old son opted for 'Geronimo!' – maybe he agrees with Peter Pan who said 'to die will be an awfully big adventure'. My daughter wanted a list of her envisioned accomplishments, starting with daughter and going on to include mother, actress, writer, artist and scientist. My husband is still locked in thought, torn between the religious instincts which took root in his childhood and his inclination towards short, simple 'Here Lies a Man'-type pithiness.
I deliberated, bearing in mind that if I went suddenly, this little coffee and cake chat would be the only guidance my family would have regarding my memorial. In the end I opted for 'She had a point'. I thought it was a nice (and vaguely feminist) balance for a woman who likes to win an argument, and whose life, ideally, meant something, if only a little thing.
I didn't think about it again until I read Robert Peston's article about his wife Sian Busby, who died of lung cancer last year, in this week's Radio Times.
If Peston wanted to convince people that his wife was a caring, clever, brave woman, he did her proud. His evocations of her energy and creativity (five novels, curating a museum, directing a 19-hour opera), her ability to continue radiating her old 'solicitious, supportive, witty, insightful, unselfish' self while enduring gruelling cycles of surgery and, eventually, a terminal diagnosis, are shatteringly moving.
Not just because Busby was clearly a gifted and impressive person who was battered by horrifically bad luck, but because Peston was, and clearly remains, in such awe of her.
But even more affecting is Peston's description of the impact Busby's diagnosis had on their marriage. I was initially shocked when he said her years of illness, facing uncertainty and then death, 'were wonderful years for Sian, Max, Simon and me'. But his explanation stays with me: 'The cancer did not haunt us. It helped us to understand what matters most in life: family, first and foremost; work that fulfils; friends, beauty and fun.'
In other words, knowing time was running out crystallised the significance, and the order of priority, of everything that makes up the stuff of life. It intensified the pleasure and meaning of good experiences, and blew away bad ones like they were filigree shadows. How many families ever get the privilege of having time together, united in such knowledge?
Peston's love letter to his wife poses a helpful hypothesis for those of us who routinely ask ourselves what is genuinely important and what just feels important because vanity makes us vulnerable to the appeal of impressing others. It convinced me that, unless we've achieved a truly towering status – we're Obama, or Einstein or Dostoevsky – ultimately, our 'meaning' is best measured by the effect of our absence on those we leave behind. Literally – who cares?
I think of the multitude of photo albums and diaries I thought I was maintaining so that I would never forget. And I wonder if, instead, they're to ensure that after I die, I'm understood as someone who cared about remembering.
As for the gravestone; maybe there's nothing better than 'She was loved'.

Faery - Released on PC
I missed this email last week while I was away but Sir Markus writes that Faery: Legends of Avalon has been released for the PC. I can't actually see any specific news on the release date on their site but it does appear to be available for sale from their online store. Of course, a demo was released back in May if you haven't already checked it out.
More information.
Depends on where.
I have seen the game in boxed format last May already.
Look here : http://www.rpgwatch.com/forums/showp…03&postcount=2
It kinda looks like a kids entry game to the genre. It looks like a Harry Potter type of game. Could be entertaining though….
tried but didnt got the vibe …
Looks nice though.
It isn't a kid's game - but still very "light-hearted".
Plus, it's turn-based.
We already had a discussion about this game, and I've bought it.
It's fun, it looks nice, but it's short. You'll finish it in 1 or 2 afternoons. :(
I was looking for a Fairy pen & paper RPG …
And I found this : http://www.pcgamer.com/2010/08/26/va…e-left-4-dead/

The World Cup just ended last Sunday, as we may expect, passionate soccer fans who are lucky enough to visit Brazil probably have made a lot of international friends. Facebook data scientists now tell us from which countries we made the most friends.
First of all, the beautiful game increases our likelihood to make a new friend from another country by 50 percent.
"Travelers to Brazil begin June with a relative high 10 percent probability of a new friend living in a different country, but it increases to about 15 percent during the tournament," Facebook data scientist Sean Taylor wrote in a blog post.
According to a friendship chart in the post, most of the international friends Americans made during the game are actually Brazilians, who just live there. Americans also made some friends with other visitors: Britons ranked the first, followed by visitors from Australia, Mexico, Colombia, and Canada.
For Brazilians, they made the most friends with Americans, followed by visitors from Australia, Argentina, Mexico, and the UK.
However, the data Facebook looked at to identify the formation of friendship was just "request + confirmation," according to Sean Taylor, in an email to VentureBeat.
Lucky folks who just came back from Brazil, please let us know if you are still inbox messaging your newly made friends from Brazil and the UK.
Facebook boasts 802 million daily active users, generating a huge amount of data for analysis. Their data scientists are engaged in a variety of projects, ranging from boosting voter turnout to mood manipulation experiment. The company is even going to hold an academic only conference to recruit sociologists.
In addition to these grand projects, Facebook provides us with interesting data analysis reports every now and then. For more details to this World Cup friendship report, read it here.

" Type: Novelty Toilet Roll "
One of the presents my boyfriend and I received from my parents at Christmas was a novelty glow in the dark loo roll . After a brief giggle turning the lights on and off, we put it to one side, not really particularly impressed, and dismissed it as just one of those silly novelty gifts .
Being distinctly average in appearance - plain white in colour, with no outer wrapping, and the exact same size and shape of your standard budget loo roll, it soon disappeared in amongst the other loo rolls in the bathroom, and we assumed that it has simply been used, un-noticed, and that actually the glow in the dark couldn't have been that impressive if we hadn't really picked up on it .
We were wrong . One night the boyfriend and I had a big argument . I can't really remember what it was about, but I do remember that I became a blubbering, snottering mess. Taking pity on me, the fella fetched me a loo roll so we could clean up my snotty wet unattractiveness, and I snatched up a few sheets and wiped my face dry.
Resolving to make up for the argument, we turned out the lights, and snuggled up together . I decided to give my boyfriend a kiss, only for him to push me off, laughing his head off . Annoyed, I asked what was so funny, only to get the reply 'Your face!!!'. Now, I knew that I'd been crying and blowing my nose, and probably wasn't the most attractive person in the world to look at, but his rubbing it in was a bit much, and I sucked in a deep breath ready to tell him so.
He had by this point stopped giggling enough to tell me to go and take a look in the mirror. Stumbling across the room in the dark, I looked into the mirror, and saw my face covered in luminous green streaks, particularly around the eyes and nose. I looked like some kind of mad raver, all glowing in bright colours . I collapsed into a fit of giggles myself - obviously this glow in the dark paper worked - a glance at the wadded up snotrags in the bin confirmed this, and just as obviously it left a residue behind.
My boyfriend and I then proceeded to draw on each other with the paper, creating glowing patterns all over our bodies . I also painted a few choice rude words onto his back - having not quite forgiven him for the argument in the first place.
We actually had a great amount of fun with this loo roll - and we did put the rest of the roll in the bathroom for it's intended purpose. It does the job it's meant to do - although the texture is decidedly at the budget and of the market and is scratchy on both nose and bottom, it absorbs everything it should . However, the residue provoked giggles on further occasions when it became very evident after a night-time toilet trip (during which this loo roll was easy to find without turning on the lights) just how thoroughly my partner wiped!
Overall, I think this is a rather fun little item . I wouldn't buy it again for myself - it is after all rather pointless, and I think we've gotten all the giggles out of it we are going to, but might well consider it as a novelty gift for someone else in the future. It is widely available online and costs around £4.99 per single roll .
4 stars - one off as I think the price is a little high, even with so much novelty value.

Danvers Selectman Gardner Trask is singing the blues. But it isn't over town issues during his third-term as selectman – instead it is at the microphone as lead vocalist for two area bands who jam to blues and rock-n-roll music.
Danvers Selectman Gardner Trask is singing the blues. But it isn't over town issues during his third-term as selectman – instead it is at the microphone as lead vocalist for two area bands who jam to blues and rock-n-roll music.
One of the groups, the Oniontowne Jam Band, will perform next week, Aug. 7, at the Rotary Pavilion, sponsored by St. Richard's Parish, as part of the Danvers Recreation Department's Summer Concert Series.
People around town are surprised to discover that Trask can belt out a tune. But no one is more surprised than Trask himself, who said it was only about eight years ago he realized he had some natural vocal talent during karaoke nights at a sports bar in Beverly.
Trask, 51, said in high school he didn't even participate in chorus or study music in any way, so to find this passion later in life has been fun.
"I'm having a ball," Trask said. "People may know me in many different roles – from family festival, to selectman, etc. It is great to break their preconceptions and see me in a different light. It is one of my favorite things."
Trask said that one night he was playing in a blues jam at a hot spot on the North Shore when John and Patrice Tierney walked in. "They had come to listen to the band and when I was called up to sing – it just blew them away! It is fun for people to see you in a different way," Trask said.
Trask's deep, rich voice has a wide range and he tackles songs with a lot of soul. Some of the songs on the set list with the Oniontowne Jam Band for next week include rock classics like Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Roadhouse Blues," R&B favorite, "Mustang Sally," and even some Elvis tunes like "Little Sister" and "Johnny B. Goode." Toss in a few Beatles tunes like "Coming Together" and some Allman Brothers and it will be a great night of music.
Trask manages to rock out about two times a month at various gigs around Massachusetts while still fitting in his duties as chairman of the Board of Selectmen and working full-time for Harvard Pilgrim Health Care as a project manager. He usually has his own personal fan club in the audience, with his wife of 27 years, Trish, cheering him on as well as his children, Gardner, Lisa and Julie.
He gets by with a little help from his friends
Trask's journey from karaoke singer to fronting a rock band was a natural evolution. He progressed from traditional karaoke to live band karaoke thanks to a fellow music lover.
Trask's friend, Maureen Benson of Danvers, who now is the lead singer of a group called Jazzport, was singing at open mike nights at various spots and urged Trask to do the same. Trask began singing at blues jams with a live band at In A Pig's Eye Restaurant in Salem.
Singing with a live band sparked his musicality and he began singing at blues jams at the Franco-American Club in Beverly. Then on another night of the week he would go to Giuseppe's Ristorante in Gloucester to sing along at their piano bar.
This experience in front of a live audience gave him the confidence to audition last year to become the lead singer for The Shotz Band. The Shotz Band has been a popular band in the area for almost 18 years and was founded by Ron Sheppard of Saugus along with his high school friend, Bob "Coach" Walles of Merrimack, N.H., who began playing music together when they were 14-years old. The other members of the band include vocalist and lead guitarist Paul Lemieux of Salem and drummer Jamie Melville of Peabody.
Once Trask was hired to join the band, he had the challenge of learning the 40 to 50 songs in the band's set list. The Shotz Band was scheduled to play on the Aug. 7 date at the Summer Concert Series when it was realized that some of the members of the band were not available. Instead of canceling – Gardner pulled together some talented musicians from the Danvers community to form a new band, The Oniontowne Jam Band, with the help of Sheryl James of the Danvers Recreation Department.
"When it turned out that Gardener's true band, The Shotz Band, couldn't play that night I was in a panic at first," said James who organizes the Summer Concert Series. "But because we know so many people in the music industry locally — all these names were coming out and every one of them said yes. If you play in a band you want to play more and these guys are excellent."
The band is comprised of four guys who promote themselves as "Danvers musicians on a rock and blues mission." Music transcends generations as the band member ages range from early 20s to 50-somethings. Members include Trask on vocals, Michael Thomas Doyle on lead guitar, Ron Chane on bass guitar, and John Zorzonello on drums. These four musicians have played in several separate bands and overlapped many times at local blues jams and open mike nights.
Chane is a well-known fixture in the New England music scene as a member of "Don't Call Me Shirley." And Zorzonello is the drummer of the band Britannica, which often plays in the Danvers area.
Doyle, 24, is the same age as Trask's son and played in the Danvers High School band. "Michael Doyle is a guitar phenom – a savant. He is an exceptional guitarist who is just getting into the scene. Anybody who sees him is amazed by his talent," Trask said.
"We want to pull together a fun time for the Summer Concert Series. We thought it may be just a one-time band, but maybe it will turn into something more," Trask said of the group who already has a gig booked at Supino's on Aug. 17.
"To find music at my age has been awesome. I'm older, my kids are grown up and Trish and I can go out and enjoy the music. And thankfully, it is not just a mid-life crisis thing — it is something I hope to do for a long time," Trask said.
Summer Concert Series
The 2013 Danvers Summer Concert Series is presented by Danvers Recreation and the Friends of Danvers Recreation. This series is made possible with support from local businesses and donations from concert goers. James is thrilled by the addition of the Oniontowne Jam Band to the roster of talented acts to perform in the 15th season of the concerts.
"They've had two practices so far and I've been there for both. I'm actually singing one song — 'Black Horse in a Cherry Tree.' I'm singing it for my mom who loves that song and goes to the concerts," James said.
This year there are 13 concerts in the series. James said she begins planning the series in January. "We have over 30 bands waiting to get into the series — it has really picked up. Most concerts average around 400 people attending. I'm really excited about," James said.
James only hires ultra-talented bands. "I don't hire a band unless I see them personally — and I am pretty critical," James said adding, "All of these guys are in it for fun — they are having a great time and they sound excellent. People ask if Gardner is professionally trained and he is not — the other guys are though. It is just the natural talent that he has — it really cool," James said.
St. Richard's BBQ
As part of the ongoing 50th Anniversary Events at St. Richard Church, they are sponsoring the Aug. 7 concert with the Oniontowne Jam Band.
St. Richard Church will be offering grilled food for purchase at the event starting at 5 p.m. Fare will include hamburgers, cheeseburgers, hot dogs, pizza, popcorn, chips, water, soda and desserts.

AN Ealing man has been appointed High Sheriff for Greater London.
Kevin McGrath was sworn into the role by the Lord Chief Justice at a ceremony at the Royal Courts of Justice.
The principal formal duty of a high sheriff includes attendance at any royal visits in a county – in his case Greater London - and support for High Court judges when on circuit.
These days, however, they play an increasingly active and supportive role for emergency services and in lending encouragement to public sector agencies such as the probation and prison services, as well as voluntary sector groups involved in crime reduction and social cohesion.
Mr McGrath, who is chairman of M&M Asset Management, brings extensive experience of shaping UK penal policy, having served as a commissioner on the high-profile Independent Commission on English Prisons Today.
In addition, he was a member of the Criminal Justice Policy Working Group, under the leadership Sadiq Khan, the Shadow Justice Minister, and the independent Alcohol and Crime Commission, chaired by John Podmore.
Mr McGrath was brought up on the White City Estate before moving to Acton and now Ealing Common, where he lives with his wife and charity co-founder, Kate, and their two children.
His continuing work with charitable bodies, including The Clink, The Howard League for Penal Reform and the Friends of Grendon Prison, highlights a commitment during his year in office to tackle crime in Greater London and find solutions to reduce re-offending rates.
In a varied public life, Mr McGrath is chairman of the Lyric Theatre, Hammersmith, vice-chairman and co-founder of The Clink Prison Restaurant Charity, the first and only commercial restaurant to be built inside a working British prison, and a trustee of the Old Vic theatre.
He was a Labour Party candidate in the 2009 European Parliament elections, a candidate for the North East Hampshire constituency at the 2005 general election, for Ealing in the 2006 London borough elections and for the London Assembly in 2012.
A former chairman and director of Queens Park Rangers FC, he now chairs QPR Ladies.

Do I 180? Do I continue to R?
He starts IC tomorrow.
He has been late to work (not his fault) the past 2 days and had to work over to make it up so he doesn't get in trouble. He's thinking of going to his mom's tonight to stay(she lives 10min from his work)
I hate when he's not here.
He left this morning grumpy and I called him on it. Said he was thinking alot and he was sorry for being grumpy.
I found a letter he wrote me about 3yrs ago when he 1st told me the hooker story(was really the OW)
I copied it and was thinking of giving him the letter with some highlighted areas and comments.
I think maybe if I had been where I am today and been able to voice my concerns and anger that maybe all of this would not have happened.
Also, a guy he used to work with that I've never met in person or even talked to on phone or on FB before has sent me a friend request. This is the same guy that also had an A with the same OW. He baited my husband to make a move on her saying she was wanting it, well he was doing it to see if she would cheat on him(the other guy) and well once my H did whatever it was he did the 1st time(hooker story) this guy stopped talking to the OW and my H never put it together until just recently.
I am wondering do I accept this request and pry for info on OW? I only know her 1st name and that she lives in a certain area, nowhere near us thank GOD or I'd be a raving lunatic.
I don't know that I want to torture myself with anymore info about her. At the same time, I'd like to take her pic and her phone number and plaster her all over the place with "call me, I'm a slut who sleeps with married men with no regard for my family or yours"
I won't though, well, I don't think I would.
I don't want him to go stay at his moms but I know if he's late again for the 3rd day in a row, it won't be good.
I just don't want this to be a daily or even every other day thing.
It leaves no time for us and well right now we haven't been communicating well again.
I also double checked his phone calls and texts to the girl he used to work with (NOT THE OW) that he was texting on Saturday while I was out and he intially called her in early afternoon and then I was able to hack into his phone and he was looking for something to do with our child and thought that maybe they could get together and the two kids could play(her child is about 1wk older than mine, we were pregnant at same time)
I am still very upset about his calling her 1st though.
I am going to have to make a list of boundaries that he needs to follow if he wants this to work. I know he's not sure of anything right now but I need to have my boundaries out there.
I am also pissed because he seems to never fight for our marriage, If I say it's over, he's ok with that...well in the past he's like what can I do if you say your done? For one ASSHOLE, let me know you care enough to want to try and make it work.
I am a mess emotionally and I had a bad day. I ate chicken nuggets for lunch but did not eat the fries at all, not even one.
I've been doing so good, but the stress of it all got to me today. I have to be strong and not let this get out of control again.
[This message edited by heathenchristian at 9:57 PM, September 10th (Tuesday)]
It's a major big deal for me.
I've been thinking maybe I should go see a lawyer just to see what my rights are. I don't want a divorce, but I don't think he wants our M.
Did he go to visit his Mum or do you mean he has left for good?
I think you should go see a lawyer for sure. Knowledge is power remember.
"The world breaks everyone and afterward many are strong at the broken places." ~Ernest Hemingway
Im sorry.
You found texts from him to another mom..asking her to get together for a play date? And he didn't discuss this ahead of time with you? Im sorry...I think he was fishing there. And using his child as an excuse.
I can see why you're unsettled. I think you should implement the 180. Take care of YOU.
..that feeling you get in your stomach, when you heart's broken. It's like all the butterflies just died.
Did he go to visit his Mum or do you mean he has left for good?
Not for good, just so he was closer to work and wouldn't be late.
He can't get himself up a little earlier
He's never been a morning person. However he's been on 1st shift again over a month and then the last few days or so the traffic has been really bad and he's been late. We are 40mi away, he leaves about 6:30am gets up at 5:30 and doesn't have to be to work until 8. Took 2hrs yesterday.
found texts from him to another mom..asking her to get together for a play date
Yes. His other choice was going to his moms. He does not like to be alone. Very needy. I hope in IC he can work on this.
He gives the other woman your phone number and you arrange it. He has NO business talking/texting another mommie about anything!!
Maybe 5 years out, in full R when he has made MAJOR changes can he arrange playdate for kids with another female.
He is either testing boundries (no adult should be doing this anyhow, this is for children to do), being defient (another personality trait that is child-like), or passive/agressively punishing you (another negative personality attribute).
180. Hard.
There are multiple things in your post saying he is not in R, or anywhere close to being there.
Start living your life and let him see if he can work his out. He wont do it if you are trying to make him. He either wants to or he doesn't but that is HIS choice to make. Your choice is to live your life.
He needs boundaries. No texting other women..No FB other women. You get a joint facebook account.
Etc. etc....
Again there is no "I" in a relationship. It is "WE"..
Tell him that.
Also can you move to get closer to his work.. Just a thought..
There is no reason for your H to be arranging time with a woman alone.
Since he won't create boundaries, what are yours?
I don't get the 180. We are communicating. If we stop communicating we would end up where we were before the A happened and then more would probably happen. That is a problem we've had forever is communication and we seem to be getting better at it.
I will have to tell him that she is off boundaries as well as the AP.
I am making a list of boundaries.
I am making a list of boundaries.
For him or you? If for him they won't work. He needs to establish those on his own.
If for you, excellent idea.
A good one may be no contact with him right now. Maybe he stays with his mom for a bit while you take some time to heal without incurring any further damage by close exposure to his choices.
I know you've posted recognition of your pre-affair behavior with him. Fine. Good start on building a better you. You can't do that by letting your guilt at past bad choices fuel current bad choices. That's just a circle jerk from hell.
He's still making bad choices using toxic thought processes. He hasn't even come close to the realization that nothing you did or are made his choice to cheat a viable option or a good way to handle things.
He may never care enough to dig, fix or grow. This sad reality is just like his choices to cheat...not about you or your marriage. It's about him and his lack of courage or strength to look inside, see the real ugliness and fix it.
Until he does have that he's no different than he was while actively cheating and therefore not a safe person for you to be around.
Even if he doesn't have that ability, you do. Make healthy choices.
'til the roof comes off. 'til the lights go out. 'til my legs give out, can't shut my mouth
He may never care enough to dig, fix or grow. This sad reality is just like his choices to cheat...not about you or your marriage. It's about him and his lack of courage or strength to look inside, see the real ugliness and fix it.
I've seen his soft, gentle, loving, caring side and wish that would come back.
I'm not sure he wants to fix parts of him though.
I love him and I know I can't fix him. I also know I may need to let him go. I just don't want to give up so easily the way he does.(this part frightens me)


text: My dad keeps making hints at me like I'm too restrictive with what I let Buster do. He tries to say it in a nice way but its like he thinks I'm not doing right by Buster. Example. Sorry, I won't let Buster go out of sight when out walking to chase rabbits. Yes, he'd love it but I don't want to be kicking myself when he runs in front of a truck or gets into a paddock and starts attacking lambs or runs into a dog and suddenly we've got a brawl going on because I had my dog offleash. He just doesn't get it. I also don't allow Buster to run up and down the street chasing rabbits, its a dead end street and very quiet but I know it only takes a second and everything could go bad and I just don't want him thinking its okay to shoot out of the yard and chase stuff. I want it enforced that not one foot goes over that fenceline until I say so. He knows I'm taking him to a behaviourist in a few months and keeps telling me "he's halfway through his life, I don't know if you need to spend hundreds of dollars on a trainer, he's a good dog" Yes... he's a fantastic dog, he's got very few bad habits but he's still got a lot of life left in him and there are a lot more things I could do with him if I got help. Plus he's so interesting. I just know there is so much going on in his head, he thinks so much and lives in his own head a lot, he's so damaged I'd love to know what someone can tell me about him. Buster is an extremley tense dog, he's relaxed a lot in the last few years but he is still so tense when you take him out of the yard. I think my dad (and others) seem to think its because I enforce rules and training with him that I've made him like this or something. Actually, all the rules and training provided stability and direction in his life and he's 1000 times better than he was 4 years ago when nothing was consistent, rules kept changing and he could never get it right. He used to not be able to eat at all if you were standing in his general vicinity, he couldn't take a treat from me when out on a walk, you couldn't touch his back end while he was lying down without him getting up and running away. Its just annoying when I put most of my time and energy into Buster or learning about dogs in general and my fathers lecturing with a total experience of one pet dog when he was 17 and not liking animals enough to pursue it any further for the next 40 years of his life. I don't think I'm being too strict with Buster, we play a lot, I let him offleash where I can but I don't want him harassing other animals or getting himself hurt, I want him to be able to relax in public, we do a lot of training but he enjoys it (so many people think I'm just annoying him - HE NEEDS TO USE HIS HEAD!) Does anyone else get this from people? Its not just my dad, its most of my family.

APPPAH is a public-benefit educational and scientific organization offering information, inspiration, and support to medical professionals, expecting parents, and all persons interested in expanding horizons of birth psychology. Come explore, learn, and work with us! The "prenatal" in our title refers to the period of about nine months including conception and the whole of gestation, while "perinatal" refers to the very short but crucial period of hours involving labor, birth, and establishment of breastfeeding. We believe that these experiences are formative for both babies and parents, and tend to establish patterns of intimacy and sociality for life. At stake here is quality of life--the quality of personal growth and the quality of society itself. Ultimately, we like to point out, "Womb ecology becomes world ecology."
In addition to the quarterly peer reviewed Journal of the Association of Pre and Perinatal Psychology and Health, (JOPPPAH), the official scientific publication of APPPAH, we publish the APPPAH Newsletter and hold regional and international conferences, promote research, serve the public with valuable directories and resources, and work to enhance the pregnancy experience and maximize the health of both mothers and babies. APPPAH members have been at the forefront in recognizing the multiple stresses of modern pregnancy and birth and developing practical therapeutic methods to deal with them.
These pages are made possible by the APPPAH Community, which has been generating news, research, conferences, books, and journals since 1983.

Carp barrier vandalized at Butte des Morts Conservation Club
WINNECONNE - The Butte des Morts Conservation Club is seeking information about recent vandalism to its carp barrier.
It happened at Terrell's Island Conservation Area.
Authorities say the carp barrier was destroyed and removed from the breakwall trail sometime in May.
The club is dedicated to the protection and restoration of wetlands on Lake Butte des Morts. Club officials say the carp barrier is needed to keep spawning carp from entering the enclosure.
Since the vandalism occurred, many carp passed into the wetlands and destroyed underwater vegetation for native fish.
If you have information regarding this incident, e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com or call the Wisconsin DNR tipline at 1-800-847-9367.
Tippers can remain anonymous.

Not amazing or stunning.
But I am not dismayed.
Because I can see and feel a difference. In my strength. In my tone.
I have learned too that there is something else more important than the actual numbers.
I think if I was at a point where I still had a lot of weight to lose, the pounds would have melted off the last 8 weeks. But I'm at a point where I am trying to lose the last 10-15 lbs after losing almost 50 in the last year.
But confidence prevails.
Confidence in my abilities to continue my lifestyle, but also confidence in how I look and feel.
I used to be the person that avoided having her photograph taken. I used to cringe when I did end up in a photo. Now, I go out of my way to have my picture taken. I smile when I see pictures of myself. The Total Gym wasn't the direct reason for this, but I believe that the Total Gym will remain a part of my lifestyle that allows me to continue to maintain my confidence in my new self.

My dentist is finally online. After a year of getting emails and phone calls from her receptionist asking me to come in for a cleaning, I now get them through a service provider.
That's a big step up, considering that many medical professional eschew technology. But her service provider, Demandforce, isn't doing her any favors. Consider this excerpt from the email that I received in the screenshot above.
The email correctly calls out the work I need to have done, but then goes on to tell me I'm not getting a deal. Apparently, Demandforce offers the ability for my dentist to include a deal to get me back in the door, but she chose not to. Even better, my NO INCENTIVE expires on 10/23/2012. (I suppose it's theoretically possible that Demandforce knows how much I hate deals and decided to call that out for me. But it's unlikely.)
This just looks ridiculous. If there's no incentive, the system should be set up to suppress the incentive portion of the template when generating the email.
Although this is an extreme example of marketing cluelessness, I see lesser examples all the time.
Many of the problems that Silicon Valley is trying to solve are not exclusively technology problem. They're often problems that involve marketing, consumer psychology, and incentive structure. Products need to be thought of in a more holistic way than "did I just accomplish the technical task?"
One of my favorite examples of consumer psychology in action is promotion codes. Having a promotion code triggers a sense of getting a great deal. Companies regularly run promotions to drive traffic. Some use promo codes to help identify the source of a lead. For example, if you use the promo code "duke" right now in the GoPago app, you'll get $10 off your next meal.
That's great for people who have the code, but many people don't have a code. As a result, the promo code field is one of the biggest barriers to order completion. People see the field and think, "Gee, I don't have a code. I'm missing out."
I was talking to someone who ran online marketing for a large cell phone carrier. They noticed this problem, but took an unconventional approach to fixing it. Instead of getting rid of the promo code field, they flooded the Web with easily Googleable promo codes.
As a result, conversions went up. People felt a sense of accomplishment because they thought they were gaming the system. And the discount was small enough that it wasn't meaningful from the carrier's perspective when weighed against the value of a new customer.
This attention to consumer pyschology is important whether you're building for your own product or building for someone else as a service provider.
In Demandforce's case, I think they're doing a disservice to my dentist. I know enough about how this stuff works that I blame Demandforce. To others, my dentist looks silly.
One of the things Silicon Valley is known for is turning things into software. I'd love to see marketing expertise turned into software.

gold bars and ounces krugerrand coins
Bars and coins: gold in the right form
Gold is an ideal store of value. The right choice is important.
Gold is always a concern for long-term investors, as long as money is uncertain.
The euro - not paper, but cotton money - is permanently insecure.
It includes private investors, especially bars and coins as the best investments, as was known by now. Occur again and again delays when the news about the euro are a little more explosive. This means that we recommend you to buy gold bars and coins at any time.
Avoid bottlenecks
We often read that there is no shortage of supply. This report mainly dealers and banks, if a buying panic is pending.
Increasingly, however, we hear from buyers at the same time that dealers can not deliver. Here bars and coins have the best prospects in the long term. Here the details of these types of investments:
Coins are important in two different classes. There are often collector coins that give out a bank or a government of limited edition. These coins are often more expensive than the pure metal value. We do not recommend.
Bullion coins on the other hand are based on the buying and selling prices of the underlying metal value. These coins are in doubt in times of crisis as well as cash, so we recommend here for a purchase.
Most importantly, in Germany the so-called "Krugerrand" is coin. This is known worldwide, and fulfills even payment function. The market share is around 50%.
Bars are in larger units, the purchase of bullion from units of more than one ounce is a good idea. Then it is usually cheaper to buy gold in this form.
Up to 100 gram gold bars are usually made of pure gold plates. If the gold coins are heavier, manufacturers are usually back on casting technique.
Are the only cast ingots, they get punched detail in which it comes to the purity and weight. Large ingots will also receive a serial number.
Camps: not expensive
You should also store the gold. You can like go to the bank and store it there, or rent a locker. This deposit is basically well as with providers that operate independently of banks.
The favorite for the storage seems to be in-house according to the latest data collected by the vault. This seems safer because the investors have direct access. Or:
In this way also eliminates storage fees. It should be remembered, however, that the safes can be relatively expensive. In addition, the storage in the vault is only safe if not the only safe, but also the installation is completed in a safe manner.
Below the line are two important recommendations for many private investors: Buy in smaller denominations, which can act rather than cash. And store them in non-bank institutions. For purchasing krugerrand gold coins visit one of the pages above.

Louisville athletic director Tom Jurich wants out of the Big East, and has expressed that desire to the conference's board of directors, sources close to the situation told ESPN.com's Andy Katz.
Jurich, sources said, wants to be transparent and with that in mind, told the board that the Cardinals want to be in either the Big 12 or the ACC. Connecticut has said that it wants to remain in the Big East, but privately, sources told ESPN.com, UConn would like to join the ACC along with Notre Dame.
Big 12 commissioner Bob Bowlsby said last week that he's not yet prepared to make any decisions about expansion, but did say that any decisions will be made on the basis of an "electronic footprint" rather than a "geographical footprint."
Notre Dame, meanwhile, has stated publicly that it is committed to remaining an independent. But, as the BCS postseason playoff model is formed, the Irish could reconsider their stance.
Big East commissioner John Marinatto is out and has been replaced by interim commissioner Joe Bailey. Bailey said he is not a candidate for the permanent job.

Cardiff keeper David Marshall unmoved ahead of visit to Manchester City
DAVID MARSHALL fears Cardiff could be cut adrift in the relegation zone, but admits no one expects them to get anything out of their trip to Manchester City next weekend.
The Cardiff keeper faces another huge challenge when the Bluebirds take on Manchester City at the Etihad on Saturday.
Manuel Pellegrini's side has gone goal-crazy on home soil this season. In all competitions they have scored 59 times in 15 games.
It's a different story for Cardiff who have slipped into the bottom three on the back of one win and only six goals in their last 11 league games.
"It's a huge challenge, but it's one of those games that you look at and there is no pressure on us," said Marshall.
"If we turn up and get done, like almost every other team has there this season, then no one is going to bat an eyelid.
"But we need to try and get the points. We've dropped into the bottom three and we do not want to get cut adrift in there."
After Saturday's visit to the Etihad, Cardiff travel to Old Trafford to round off a tough January.
"It's one of those games that you look at and there is no pressure on us"David Marshall
Next month, they have Norwich, Swansea, Aston Villa and Hull. It promises to be a make-or-break six weeks for new boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
Marshall has no doubt the former Manchester United striker will be up for Saturday's clash.
"I don't think he will need any extra motivation," said Marshall.
"He will be desperate to put one over on Manchester City. However, more than anything else, that's because we need to get out of the bottom three."

Rihanna at River Island: collection is urban in flavour
The unveiling of popstar Rihanna's capsule collection for the high street chain River Island last night was timed to coincide with London Fashion Week, and was no less glitzy for its more accessible price tags.
Models Cara Delevingne and Jourdan Dunn sat front row and Rihanna herself took a bow at the end. The clothes were urban in flavour, with crop tops, thigh-high slits and battered denim reflecting the tastes of the megastar that created it. It arrives in stores in early March.

A man has fled after crashing his Aston Martin into another vehicle on a Queensland road, leaving a woman trapped inside with critical injuries.
Emergency services worked to free the elderly woman who was left entrapped after a man driving a sedan reportedly lost control of the $150,000 vehicle and crashed into a car travelling in the opposite direction.
The man fled the scene on foot before police could arrive at the Wongawallen road, while the woman was left trapped in her car.
She was taken to the Gold Coast Hospital with severe leg and internal injuries.

Akiva Eldar / Whose Failure Is the Mideast Peace Process?
Obama is holding Israel and the Palestinians equally responsible for the stalemate in the negotiations.
Exactly a year after trumpeting the appointment of former senator George Mitchell as his special envoy to the Middle East, U.S. President Barack Obama is holding Israel and the Palestinians equally responsible for the stalemate in the peace process.
In an interview with Time magazine marking his first year in the White House, Obama said neither side has been willing to make the bold gestures necessary to move the process forward.
A senior minister told Haaretz Thursday that the chances of renewing the peace talks are "slim." According to the minister, Mitchell's present mission is not likely to succeed either, as he will probably not persuade Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas to renew the negotiations over the permanent status settlement. Nor is he likely to receive from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu a clear answer as to whether he is ready to adopt U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's formula to base Israel's permanent borders on the 1967 lines.
The results of Mitchell's meetings this week with Netanyahu and Abbas will determine whether Washington continues the efforts to bring the parties back to the negotiations table.
One possibility being examined is a shuttle diplomacy similar to Henry Kissinger's method of paving the way to the Separation of Forces Agreement between Israel and Egypt and Syria in the mid 1970s. However, more than 16 years after the Oslo Accords were signed without American involvement, the Americans are not keen to give up the direct Israeli-Palestinian negotiation format for proximity talks like the Olmert government held with Syria, with Turkey's mediation.
Netanyahu has recently been trying to persuade the American administration that due to the rivalry with Abbas, he is not prepared to reach an agreement involving difficult Israeli concessions. Netanyahu proposed focusing the American efforts on drafting sanctions on Iran.
However, the Time interview shows that Obama has not bought the prime minister's contention that Israel has moved a long way toward the Palestinians by freezing settlement construction. Netanyahu blames Abbas for setting unreasonable conditions for resuming talks.
Obama spoke in the same breath about the political environment and nature of the coalitions, and gaps in the Israeli and Palestinian societies, which make it difficult to jump-start a significant dialogue.
One can detect a hint of criticism of Netanyahu, who prefers a right-wing coalition to partnership with Kadima, which represents more central positions. On the other hand, heavy American pressure on Abbas and Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak have put an end to the attempt to set up a Fatah-Hamas unity government.
Speaking about the Arab world's intolerance to the peace process, Obama aimed is criticism mainly at Saudi Arabia. He was expressing his disappointment from King Abdullah's refusal to offer Israel gestures of normalization in a bid to muster public support for the peace process.
Obama was surprised by the force of the Saudis' support in freezing the construction in the settlements and East Jerusalem completely. The Americans fear that in the absence of progress in the next few weeks, Arab leaders like the Syrian president may suspend the Arab peace initiative in the Arab summit in Tripoli in two months.
Diplomatic sources say that in view of the dead end in the Palestinian track and the American interest to stabilize the Iraq-Syria border, Obama may lend an attentive ear to Israeli figures Ehud Barak and Dan Meridor, who are trying to persuade the Americans to unblock the Syrian track.
This could be Obama's alternative to the approach of James Baker, who reminded Yitzhak Shamir of the White House's telephone number and told him to call when he was serious about peace.

Both are numero uno actresses of Bollywood, hence theirs is a friendship that baffles everyone. After all no two actresses on the top rung have been able to keep up a cordial relationship, but the gorgeous gals – Deepika Padukone and Priyanka Chopra have definitely created history of sorts by not only being cordial to each other but also sharing a warm bond of friendship.
In the thick of catfights and competitiveness, it is remarkable that these two hot babes have formed a bond of amity, which is visible for all to see. Be it lunching together, gossiping, or standing by each other in tough times, the girls have exhibited a warm camaraderie.
Recently, when Deepika waged a war on twitter against a leading newspaper for posting an insensitive picture and comment about her cleavage, Piggy chops ensured that she was supporting her bestie. Within minutes of Deepika's fitting tweet against the daily, Priyanka Chopra too tweeted, "Well done @deepikapadukone ! Taken a stand for all of us. Xoxo.(sic)"
Likewise, Deepika too is known to comfort her dear friend when the weather gets rough. When Priyanka's dad was unwell and suffering from cancer, Deepika often visited her friend and became the pillar of support for Priyanka. On his sad demise, Deepika rushed to be there by her friend's side lending her a comforting shoulder.
Such affection between actresses is a very rare sight in Bollywood. What's interesting is the fact that even success has not marred this genuine bond of friendship. The two pals have never got competitive nor have they envied each other's success. Apparently, when Sanjay Leela Bhansali was planning on 'Mary Kom', Deepika had voiced out her desire to play the boxer, "I would loved to do the biopic." However, when she heard that Priyanka would be playing the coveted role, she graciously said, "I feel Priyanka is right for the film."
Interestingly, the buzz is Priyanka was considered for the role of Leela in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's 'Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-Leela' before Deepika bagged the role. However, the two leading women of cinema have not let professional trivialities affect their affectionate bond of friendship.
"Deepika is a lovely person and we have known each other for years now, way before she became an actor. The reason is that we have a common circle of friends," said Priyanka in an interview.
Clearly, these two screen goddesses are thick as thieves and are nothing short of favorites to each other. Each one remembers the other's birthday and ensures that no matter in which part of the world they are, their well wishes are reached promptly. Not marked by competitiveness, rather by genuine love and affection Deepika and Priyanka's friendship only deserves to be called - 'asli yaari'.
