Food was great! Location was perfect. Staff were wonderful. Can't wait to go back!
Dear Mr. / Mrs. Hereby I would like to inform that the reservation made by booking.com hasn't appear in their reservation so I had to make the reservation apart again with the hotel. This is the first time that this is happening while making a reservation thru booking.com.
Location was nice. Food was good.
The staff was mostly not very friendly. Only handful were nice. The bed sheets were dirty and not changed. The shower was awful and water pressure was bad.
Marcia our butler was awesome, helpful in every way but not overly intrusive. Staff was awesome in general. Seems best for an older crowd or people looking for a quiet romantic getaway or honeymoon spot. It was close to Philipsburg so you could walk there is you wanted a little more variety.
It was smaller than expected with less options than I typically expect from an all inclusive but the staff and the scenery definitely make up for that!
Perfect location. Just on the beach. Great selection of drinks and food. Fantastic watresses!!! Reception so so.( apart from Giorgio- extremely helpful guy).
Not effective cleaners. Cleaning was taking all day. Somebody else was doing bathroom, then somebody else topping up toiletries - always missing something. Then somebody to check minibar. Like endless pilgrimage of service people.
The staff is very friendly and helpfull. Our special thank you to Rosaline. We had this vacation to celebrate 40 years of our marriage and Rosaline updated our room and gave us so much special attitude. We had great time.
Great value.
Staff Super friendly - food was very good sometimes a bit to cold - the bay and it's view was awesome

Governments and industry have failed tocontrol the spread of dangerous chemicals around the globe. Sowidespread are manmade hazardous chemicals in our environment, in ourhomes and in the products we use every day, that we are constantlyexposed to a cocktail of chemicals. As a result, even our own bodiesare contaminated.
High fashion isn't normally known for being held in high regard
amongenvironmentalists. But some big names and big brands in
fashion havegotten together with us to put on a
toxics-freefashion show. The clothes we wear, no matter how
expensive,shouldn't cost the Earth.
In our environment:
It nowseems that no part of the planet is free from chemical
contamination.Research shows that fish and whales caught hundreds
of kms offshore,and in remote areas such as Alpine lakes and the
polar regions, despitebeing far from any industry, are no longer
pristine. Rainwater inEurope has been shown to be
polluted with the hazardous chemicals thatare added to consumer
products. A recent study has found that
eels infreshwater ecosystems across Europe are contaminated,
raising concernfor the impact on this once abundant species whose
numbers now are inrapid decline.
In our homes:
Our testing hasfound that
house dust in homes across Europe is contaminated withhazardous
manmade chemicals. Chemicals that are added to ordinaryhousehold
products (including carpets and other furnishings, electricaland
electronic goods, toys and childcare articles, etc.) can bereleased
over time, accumulating in the dust in our homes. Chemicals insuch
products are rarely labelled and you probably don't realise theyare
there. Bringing these chemicals via consumer products into ourhomes
leads to a repeated and long-term exposure to low doses of
In our products:
Hazardouschemicals are intentionally added to consumer products
that we useevery day.
Electronics, toys, shampoos,
perfumes, furniture, even
babies' pyjamas, can all contain substances with the potential
to harmhealth and development. We have tested a wide range of these
productsfor hazardous chemicals. You can read the results of our
testing anddiscover which brands contain the most toxic substances
on our ChemicalHome
In our bodies:
Analyses ofumbilical cord blood have confirmed the presence of
hazardous chemicalsin humans at the very start of life, indicating
that chemicals releasedtoday could have profound consequences for
the next generation. Thisproves that chemicals released into our
environment may have an impacton future generations. No one knows
how many man-made chemicalscontaminate our bodies but more than 100
is a conservative estimate. Sogreat is the number of chemicals all
around us that we're constantlyexposed to multiple doses, the
combined effect of which could beimpacting our health. This effect
of chemicals in our bodies, includingin
our blood, is largely unknown. There's particular concern about
therisks to
children and babies, since they are the most vulnerable,
andbecause some of these hazardous chemicals are known to affect
thedevelopment of babies inside the womb.
The European Union has approved a new chemical law to replaceregulation that is over 40 years old. But the new EU chemicalslegislation (REACH) is in critical condition. Read more analysis or a guide to how you can help strengthen the new law.We are campaigning for solutions. We believe that politicians must takeaction and require companies to stop using hazardous chemicals and tosubstitute them with safer alternatives whenever and wherever possible.
Today, more and more people around the world rely on laptops, phones and tablets as an essential part of their everyday lives. However, the rate at which they purchase and discard these devices is having a serious impact on our planet.
This study follows on from several previous investigations published by Greenpeace as part of its Detox campaign, which identified that hazardous chemicals are present in textile and leather products as a result of their use during manufacture.
A new investigation by Greenpeace International has found a broad range of hazardous chemicals in children's clothing and footwear produced by eight luxury fashion brands.

This is a story of corporate crime, human rights abuse and governments' failure
to protect people and the environment. A joint report by Amnesty International and Greenpeace Netherlands.
Water is essential for life, but it is also the world's most threatened essential resource. It is imperative that solutions are found to stop poisoning the precious resources we have left with hazardous chemicals.
Industrial pollution is a severe threat to water resources around the world, particularly in the Global South where the view prevails that pollution is the price to pay for progress.

Image Converter 18.104.22.168
Load or create image
Image Converter allows you to load any image, in the supported formats: PNG, JPG, GIF, BMP or TIFF. You may view the pictures in window mode or enlarge them by dragging the margin of the software's GUI. The software does not feature a zooming function, but enlarging or shrinking the window can cause the picture to be resized.
The main function of the program is to convert images from common file formats to Flexible Tagged Format, a special file type, derived from TIFF. While TIFF is a highly popular file format amongst professional graphic artists, the FTF format is used for storing several image tags.
Image to FTF and vice versa
The software offers support for conversion in both directions: from common formats to FTF, as well as from FTF to JPG, BMP, PNG or GIF. Additionally, it supports floating point and multiple pages in TIFF images. Aside from transforming an image to flexible tagged format, Image Converter can also turn a colored picture to gray scale, change its color channel or switch to another level of bites per channel.
Moreover, you can apply float gamma correction on an image viewed in float mode. You may also apply compression when saving the file, in order to obtain the most suitable size. The software can also permanently resize the loaded image, by pixels/percentage, using the bi-linear or the accumulative methods.
Easy to handle software
Image Converter is simple to work with and enables you to obtain FTF files by converting pre-existing images or by creating a new picture with a colored gradient. The software offers support for converting images to FTF and vice versa. Moreover, you may modify the picture's color channel, level of bits per channel and enable or disable file compression.

Yeh definately "unbelievable" As usual all Gloucester players don't get a look in. Bit like the England selections (down to Rob Andrew's dislike of Gloucester i believe) James Simpson Daniel!!! Unluckiest player in England in the last 15 years, how he has been overlooked in favour of some of the awful wingers that have been picked??????

Take it you missed Bath vs Northampton then Dewi? There were some excellent performances from players on both sides. Especially Abendanon, Hipkiss and Claassens from Bath and Hartley, Wood, Dowson and Dickson from Northampton.

Comment: keep on calculating [Don't speculate, calculate] (Score 1) 718
A nice response, and interesting. But if you dig a little deeper, you'll see it's not that trivial.
Yes it is.
It's not, and one point that needs to be clarified is that AGW proponents must supply the burden of proof.
Nope. You have just proposed a hypothesis. Unless you show that it is plausible, there's no reason for anybody to pay attention: your hypothesis, your burden to show it's plausible.
As it turns out, about two minutes of calculation shows it's several orders of magnitude too small to be relevant. But you need to learn to do your calculations.
Unsupported speculation is not science. It may be the start of science... but it's not science until you start using numbers.
I would note that your post didn't address the relative orders of magnitude of CO2.
Calculations, please. Making stuff up isn't science. Calculating effects is. If you think that relative magnitude of CO2 is relevant, give me a back of the envelope showing plausibility. You can use as a starting point the fact all the volcanoes worldwide emit, on average, an estimated 130 to 440 million metric tons of CO2 each year. (Sounds like a lot, doesn't it?)
I'm not talking about the CO2 from the volcanoes, it's the heat and acidity.
You randomly shift back and forth from saying its the CO2 (first quote in this thread this one), it's the heat (listed first in this sentence), or it's the acidity (end of this sentence). Three completely different effects; three completely different calculations. This leads me to suspect you haven't actually thought it out. Pick one. Do the calculation. Check your numbers. Check them again.
Sorry, gotta go.

NEW YORK, March 1, 2013 – The Miami Heat today assigned rookie center-forward Jarvis Varnado to the Sioux Falls Skyforce, the Heat's NBA Development League affiliate. The assignment is the record 137th of the 2012-13 NBA and NBA D-League seasons, and is the first for Varnado. He becomes the record 54th NBA player to have been assigned to the NBA D-League this season.
Varnado (6-9, 230, Mississippi State) returns to the Skyforce having earned a GATORADE Call-Up from the team to the Heat in January. He has appeared in five games for Miami this season, recording two points, two blocks and one assist in 19 minutes. Prior to his stint with Miami, Varnado played in five games with the Boston Celtics, where he scored six points and grabbed three rebounds in 18 minutes.
Appearing in 10 games for Sioux Falls prior to his Call-Ups to Boston and Miami, Varnado averaged 14.0 points, 10.0 rebounds, 3.9 blocks and 30.5 minutes.
Varnado is expected to join the Skyforce today and be available tomorrow when the team travels to face the Tulsa 66ers at 8 p.m. ET.
Sioux Falls Skyforce forward Demetris Nichols has been named NBA Development League Player of the Month for games played in February. The honor is the first of Nichols' career.
Nichols (6-8, 215, Syracuse) led Sioux Falls (21-14) to a 7-3 record in February, averaging 22.7 points on 53 percent shooting from the floor, to go with 6.1 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 35.4 minutes. He scored in double figures in eight of the team's 10 games, including an NBA D-League-wide season-high 42 points in a 117-112 win over the Iowa Energy on Feb. 19. He recorded one double-double during the month, scoring 26 points and grabbing 11 rebounds in a 115-107 road loss to the Erie BayHawks on Feb. 8.
A 2013 NBA D-League All-Star, Nichols scored 15 points in 21 minutes for the Prospects Team on Feb. 16 in Houston at 2013 NBA All-Star weekend.
Nichols has appeared in 35 games for Sioux Falls this season, averaging 18.5 points, good for 10th best in the NBA D-League, along with 5.4 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.3 steals and 35.0 minutes.
Other top NBA D-League prospects considered for the honor were Austin's Cory Joseph, on assignment from the San Antonio Spurs; Bakersfield's Jerel McNeal; Canton's Jorge Gutierrez; Erie's Henry Sims; Fort Wayne's Tony Mitchell; Idaho's Justin Holiday; Los Angeles' Courtney Fortson; Maine's Shelvin Mack; Reno's Samardo Samuels; Rio Grande Valley's Glen Rice, Jr.; Springfield's Willie Reed; Texas' Justin Dentmon; and Tulsa's Rasual Butler.

The Dolan Company Reports Third Quarter 2013 Results
The Dolan Company (NYSE:DM), a leading provider of professional services and business information to legal, financial and real estate sectors in the United States, today announced financial results for the three months ended September 30, 2013.
"The third quarter was a period of change as we work on building for the future," said James P. Dolan, chairman, chief executive officer and president. "We were able to sell our largest NDeX mortgage default processing operations during the quarter, which eliminated the negative cash flows from these businesses, while providing some cash to pay down debt as well as a more predictable cash flow stream in the future."
"Our Business Information Division continued to be affected by lower public notice advertising," Dolan said. "Similar to previous quarters, public notices in the third quarter felt the impact of lower mortgage default volumes, which reduced revenues and profitability. We believe our public notice revenue should stabilize as we enter 2014," Dolan said.
"Meanwhile, we experienced some challenges in our Litigation Support Services segment in the third quarter. Revenues for this segment decreased by 28% during the quarter, including a 33% decline at DiscoverReady, our e-discovery business. I should point out that DiscoverReady's third quarter is compared against a record third quarter last year. Through the first three quarters of 2013, DiscoverReady is up 14%, which is consistent with our previous guidance," Dolan said."DiscoverReady's third quarter revenues were affected not only by the quarterly lumpiness that is inherent to the e-discovery business, but also decreased primarily as the result of a period of reduced work from DiscoverReady's largest customer. Despite these near-term challenges, we remain encouraged by the opportunity and growth potential within the e-discovery market," Dolan said. "During the third quarter we continued to make progress toward improving our balance sheet. We generated $5.8 million in free cash flow, which was used in part to pay down our net debt to $128.7 million at the end of the quarter. Our net debt has been reduced as a result of our free cash flow from operations, working capital management, and payments from our NDeX sale transactions," Dolan said.

|I have been given a Blackberry Iris that I understand can be very invasive. It was given to me by a neighbor who found it on his farm. THe plant, along with several others, has been on an old Homestead for over 150 years.
Can you give me some advice on what to do with it? It looks like an iris but the root system resembles that of the common house leek. It shoots up a spike and has orange/yellow flowers on it. I can see where it could be pretty but am afraid to plant it since the MINT experience.
Follow-Up Postings:
- Posted by Cecilia_MD7a 7a/Baltimore,MD (My Page) on Tue, Jul 20, 04 at 9:53
|I'm assuming that your plant is Belamcanda chinensis, also known as Blackberry Lily or Leopard Lily. It's not on the list of invasive plants for Tennessee, but that doesn't necessarily mean that it won't be a thug in your garden. Is it very invasive on the old homestead that your neighbor got it from?
I grew it from seed a few years ago, and it never really took off in my garden. It has died out since then.
Here is a link that might be useful: TN invasive plants
|Thank you..I appreciate the Botonical name also. Just could not find it.
I am planting the Iris in an area that if in fact it does turn out to be a "bad girl", I might can do something about it.
If you would like to try this plant again. I have 2 and you are welcome to one.
Thank you for your help.
|If Cecilia of Baltimore does not want this plant, I would be interested in it. I might have something to trade if you are interested.

Major Gold-Antimony Target Defined At Pietratonda, Italy
A total of 273 samples were collected from this phase (including 49 quality control (QC) samples), with 27% of samples (excluding QC samples) yielding greater than 0.1 g/t Au and an average grade of all samples of 0.125 g/t Au. Gold results varied from below detection up to highs of 2.43, 1.21 and 1.07 g/t, and antimony from 1.78 ppm to 15 samples above 1%, with highs of 5.17, 7.08 and 8.42 percent. Gold and antimony define a coincident anomaly over 600 by 200 metres. Arsenic and mercury are also strongly anomalous, with highs of 0.51, 0.14 and 0.10 percent As, and 104.5, 69.2 and 47.4 ppm Hg, both of which showing a good correlation with gold, and thus highlighting their use as pathfinder elements. A sample map and table of results are available on Medgold's website at http://www.medgoldresources.com/medgold-italy-mining.asp.
These results are considered to represent a distal zone of mineralization associated with a high-grade and high-angle structural feeder-zone, which is commonly found in Carlin-type deposits. Vector analysis of the geochemistry highlights a strong increase in Au-Sb anomalism toward the inferred high-angle feeder faults. These represent clear exploration drill targets where Au-Sb grades are expected to increase with depth.
The next phase of work will involve a limited induced polarization (IP) geophysical study, to aid in the better definition of drill targets and the possible identification of high-angle faults associated with jasperoids and expected pyrite-stibnite mineralization at depth. This will be carried out in the second half of 2013. A drill program is planned for early 2014 once all the necessary permits have been received.
Quality Assurance and Quality Control (QA-QC)The samples were prepared and analyzed for gold by fire assay with atomic adsorption finish by ALS Minerals at the Rosia Montana Laboratory, Romania. Multielements were analyzed by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer (ICP-MS) and inductively coupled plasma emission spectrometer (ICP-AES) on a sample split sent to the ALS Minerals laboratory in Vancouver. Blank, certified standard reference materials, and field and laboratory duplicates were routinely inserted for quality assurance and quality control. Qualified Person Dr. Stewart D.

Best Comfort Food Denver 2009 - Table 6
609 Corona St.
Denver, CO 80218
Here's how you decide which restaurant in a city has the best comfort food: You spend a couple of months doing nothing but eating and obsessing over food, going out at all hours of the day and night for tacos and tamales and foie gras and fried chicken. Then you spend weeks assembling a list of the best of the best of them, revising the list, dreaming about the list and, finally, writing up awards for the very best places and dishes in town. And then, when all that eating and listing and writing and obsessing is done, you ask yourself: Where do you really want to eat? The answer will be Table 6, which achieved star status early but continues to shine, putting out the town's best comfort food in one of the town's most comfortable, cozy settings.

money talks
Harry Shearer Speaks Up About The Simpsons
To boil down the current Simpsons-Fox contract dispute: Fox wanted the producers and actors to take a 45 percent pay cut to continue the show. The actors offered to take a 30 percent pay cut, in exchange for some piece of the show's back end. Fox said no. The producers agreed to the 45 percent cut, and negotiations with the actors are still ongoing. Enter Harry Shearer. He voices many, many characters on The Simpsons (Mr. Burns, Smithers, Ned Flanders etc.) and took to his Facebook page to address the issue and imply Fox is being illogical and greedy. If they say they can't continue the show without making pay cuts, fine. Cut his pay 70 percent. Just give him a little profit participation.
For many years now, the cast of "The Simpsons" has been trying to get Fox to agree that, like so many other people who've contributed significantly to the show's success, we be allowed a tiny share of the billions of dollars in profits the show has earned. Fox has consistently refused to even consider the matter. Instead, it's paid us salaries that, while ridiculous by any normal standard, pale in comparison to what the show's profit participants have been taking home.
Now, as the show enters its twenty-third season, we are engaged in what will probably be our last contract negotiation with Fox. As you may have heard, the network has taken the position that "The Simpsons" no longer makes enough money and that unless we in the cast accept a 45% pay cut, they are not going to bring the show back for a twenty-fourth season.
Obviously, there are a lot more important things going on in the world right now, in the streets of New York and elsewhere. But given how many people seem to care about what happens to our show - and how much misinformation has been flying around - I thought it might make sense for at least one member of the cast to speak out directly. I should note that I am speaking only for myself, and not for any of the other actors on the show.
Fox wants to cut our salaries in half because it says it can't afford to continue making the show under what it calls the existing business model. Fox hasn't explained what kind of new business model it has formulated to keep the show on the air, but clearly the less money they have to pay us in salary, the more they're able to afford to continue broadcasting the show. And to this I say, fine - if pay cuts are what it will take to keep the show on the air, then cut my pay. In fact, to make it as easy as possible for Fox to keep new episodes of "The Simpsons" coming, I'm willing to let them cut my salary not just 45% but more than 70% - down to half of what they said they would be willing to pay us. All I would ask in return is that I be allowed a small share of the eventual profits.
My representatives broached this idea to Fox yesterday, asking the network how low a salary number I would have to accept to make a profit participation feasible. My representatives were told there was no such number. There were, the Fox people said, simply no circumstances under which the network would consider allowing me or any of the actors to share in the show's success.
As a member of the "Simpsons" cast for 23 years, I think it's fair to say that we've had a great run and no one should feel sorry for any of us. But given how much joy the show has given so many people over the years - and given how many billions of dollars in profits News Corp. has earned and will earn from it - I find it hard to believe that this is Fox's final word on the subject. At least I certainly hope it isn't, because the alternative is to cancel the show or fire me for having the gall to try to save the show by helping Fox with its new business model. Neither would be a fair result - either to those of us who have committed so many years to the show or to its loyal fans who make our effort worthwhile.
Your move, Fox!

|This is the hood insert that the appliance person told me to get to go over my new Bosch 800 Series 36" Induction Cooktop.
AK8100AS Zephyr Blower Int, 600 CFM, Power Pack
27" Tornado I Power Pack Insert with 600 CFM Internal Blower, 6 Sones, 3 Speed Levels, Dual-Level Halogen Lights and Mechanical Slide Cont
I admit that ventilation is an area of this kitchen remodel where I am completely clueless and I have not been able to grasp all the informaiton I have been reading. I don't know what an internal blower is, or what power pack means, nor if these things are normal/standard or optional and if I need them.
If this is not a suitable hood insert, can someone make a recommendation? It will be an insert in the cabinetry.
Follow-Up Postings:
|I am so not an expert, but am also considering a Zephyr insert for over a 36" induction cooktop (probably Miele), and from what I've gleaned 27" doesn't seem wide enough. Based on recommendations that exhaust hood be at least 6" wider than cooktop, I'm looking at the AK94AS ("Power Monsoon DCBL") - blower goes from 250 min. to 715 max. CFM. I THINK that "power pack" means that you're buying the operational guts of the hood (motor, grease-collecting apparatus, lights, etc.) to be installed in your own enclosure (e.g. cabinetry, custom fabricated metal surround, etc.), and that "internal blower" means that the mechanism that actually blows the nasty stuff out of your kitchen is located right within the guts that you're buying - as opposed to having the blower within the ductwork or outside at the end of the duct run ("external blower"). Hope that I haven't horribly mangled anything & that someone with more knowledge will chime in!
|Is there anyone that can clarify this for us? If you have a 36" cooktop, which hood insert do you have (brand size, CFMs, etc.)?
|Here is the Bosch hood insert. Is it better to choose the same brand as the cooktop? Here is how it is described on the Bosch website:
29" Custom Insert Hood
400 CFM Blower Included
|An insert is a hood with unfinished exterior sides. If you want to put cabinetry around a hood, use an insert. If you want an exposed hood, purchase one that is finished on the outside (usually just called a hood).
To ventilate, a fan is needed to move air through the hood and ducting to the (usually) outside, and as noted above, a hood ventilation system can be configured to use a fan in the hood, a fan in the ducting, or a fan on the roof or side of the house. Some suppliers use "power pack" to make the fan seem more impressive.
Hoods and inserts need not be the same brand as the cooktop, unless their styles are consistent and that look is necessary.
To address what is needed in size and flow rate is another very long subject and questions should follow spending significant time reading relevant messages on this forum.
|Thanks, I've been reading the threads about ventilation, but I'm not sure I really understand most of it.
We are planning an insert to be covered with cabinetry.
I will re-read some of the ventilation threads to try to get a better understanding.
I'm ordering all my appliances in the next day or so. I think I will leave the ventilation out of this purchse for now.
|fyi - the hood pictured has mesh filters - most people consider baffles a better choice.

He's told me it stemmed from low self-esteem, but I couldn't understand how paying prostitutes for sex would make anyone feel better - wouldn't it make more sense to pick up women at a bar or something? But the fact that it's rejection-free - that makes sense now. email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-7026450255174007652.post-18954475409565482732013-03-27T10:06:08.231-07:002013-03-27T10:06:08.231-07:00I think what trips many of us non-addicts up is th...I think what trips many of us non-addicts up is the idea of "choice". We think it's just a matter of choosing differently. And clearly there's an element of that or else no-one would ever be able to beat an addiction. But choice to an addict is never simple. It's a street-fight and all to often the demons win.
Watching my mom spiral down into alcoholism wasn't about watching someone "choose" alcohol over me, though it felt that way at the time. It was about watching someone medicate pain that she simply didn't have the ability to manage at that point in her life. Living hurt too much so she numbed it. And, for years, thought she wasn't hurting anybody. Something that I think sounds familiar to a lot of us.

Porn gives men...I completely understand your point. Porn gives men a blueprint for sex that has very little basis in reality. Women are always willing. They're always turned on. They have virtually no demands other than "more" and "harder". I recently read an article by a porn star who talked about the damage she and other women experience – prolapsed vaginas, chafing, bruising. Nothing sexy about that!
And, of course, men begin to objectify women. I told my husband I began to feel like a blow-up doll.
Which is why I thought Brené Brown's understanding of men and porn was so fascinating. It's in keeping with what many experts/therapists say...but so counter-intuitive to how most women feel. Worth exploring.

You are right and I think the high from the affair is an addiction just like that to alcohol. Maybe that is trying to find excuses for peoples poor choices. Maybe it's trying to rationalize irrational behavior. Yes your Mon chose alcohol over you. In my H's case the OW worked for him so he had to see her everyday.

In my case, my husband was addicted to porn for years. He stayed up all night with it. He secretly used cialis to masturbate. I pleaded with him to stop. I articulated the pain it was causing me and, because my self-esteem and body image were poor, I resented him "using me" for release. His response was to get angry and accuse me of being controlling. He did compare me to the porn objects and told me I was "ample". (I truly wasn't. I simply had the body of a 50 year old.) There was little affection in our infrequent love-making because I was being used and I knew it. It was a vicious downward cycle. The porn led to the affair quite easily. Since discovery the porn has ended. Our love-making is meaningful and mutual. But I am always on guard-it is sobering to know how easily he did what he email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-7026450255174007652.post-36101746933375759592013-03-26T15:40:18.714-07:002013-03-26T15:40:18.714-07:00In my husband's case, he simply didn't car...In my husband's case, he simply didn't care what they thought. So rejection by them (or criticism or whatever) wouldn't carry the same weight. He didn't feel vulnerable with them. As he said to me, "I never once imagined what they were doing when they weren't with me, or wanted to sit down and have dinner with them" The fact that he objectified them to that extent – they were important to him only in as far as they met his physical needs – is another part of his shame. He never thought he'd be capable of that.
So though it is baffling, I think it's only that way to us.
I used to be baffled at my mother's alcoholism. I simply couldn't understand why she would consistently choose alcohol when the consequences (almost losing her family) were so severe. With all the work I've been doing to try and understand my husband's actions, it's becoming much more clear.

I mean wasn't he embarrassed at all about taking his clothes off in front of this stranger at his age?? Also the fact that he needed the little blue pill to help "keep things going"? If they are so scared and afraid of rejection wouldn't that keep them from affairs? Porn I can see because it's all in you mind (altho I see the harm in porn to relationships particularly if the spouse doesn't know about it). How does he not think that when his ass was out the door she wasn't counting the money he gave her and laughing at him because I believe she was!!! Plus she had another lover that he didn't know about until he left me and her lover called and told him. My H is a good lover but trust me he's not Casanova. Never has been. He's nice enough looking, but he isn't Brad Pitt either. I'm sure she liked him well enough, but I am convinced it was the money, and lots of it, that motivated her, not the incredible sex that she convinced him of. I think the man really thought he was a stud. One of his admissions was that when he was "done" he was ready to leave! All I know is at my age I would have to know a person a realllly long time and realllllly trust them before taking my clothes off. I know I am very rejection averse!TryingHardhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com

MTSA Roll Call
- 0Feb 13, '05 by SleepyRN2BJust wondering how many people on this site will be attending Middle Tennessee School of Anesthesia in July??
- 0Feb 18, '05 by shirleyTXHello all,
I was wondering, since your in Tennessee why you chose MTSA, instead of the other schools in Tenn. like KNoxville or Chattanooga. Was there something in this program that the others did not offer? Curious, b/c once I get a few years in ICU I do plan on applying in Tenn. and was just wondering if I was missing something. For me, the choice will be location based, but just wondering about the other areas.
- 0Feb 18, '05 by rn29306Not sure about UTK, but Chattanooga is Master of Science in Nursing, dealing with a couple of fluff classes, doing a project/thesis, based at Erlanger and a few outlying facilities. There is no competition by anesthesia residents. Erlanger is our playground for 55-60 (cannot exceed 65) hours week with weeknight and weekend call. MTSA is not MSN based, no theory courses, but you are farmed out to some out of the way places as far as clinicals. Not sure about competition with residents.
If I am wrong about anything that has been told to me, please feel free to correct any misunderstandings. Not trying to compare the programs, but just to give insight to UTC and Erlanger's program..
Hope this helps the OP.
- 0Feb 18, '05 by SleepyRN2BMTSA is a masters degree program... All clinicals save the children's hospital clinical is in Nashville and surrounding area. The only difference I see is that MTSA is on the quarter system, and your in clinicals 5 weeks in.
- 0Feb 21, '05 by SleepyRN2BTmax,
Are you male/female... married/single.... age.... moving from?? just currious.
