Deciding to go(102 Posts)
Hi, I'm trying to decide whether to leave my husband. I feel like this is such an old story on relationships but I really want to talk about it so here goes...
I'm 42, we've been married for 12 years. We have 2 DCs age 3 and 7. DS2 starts school in September which is a worry as he is being assessed for possible ASD and I think that his start at school will be quite rocky.
We have had sex once since DS2 was born. I occasionally try to initiate it but DH is always too tired.
DH is not terrible in lots of ways. He does wash up, empty and load the dishwasher, looks after most of the bills and sometimes vaccums and changes the sheets on our bed without being asked (thinking about those "mental load" cartoons). He is also supporting us financially at the moment. So he isn't a complete waste and sometimes I think that I just have unrealistic expectations.
We both worked in similar jobs- we are both NHS hospital consultants and before children we both worked in acute areas. He hasn't been willing to change his working pattern at all and also will not accept us having a nanny so I do all the school dropoffs and pickups. He also refuses to look after the DCs (particularly DS2) at weekends so I've had to stop doing on call. He did used to look after DS1 but would make a point of how awful it was for him and I would often be setting off for work having just been told things like "I'm in a situation that I can't stand, this is intolerable".
This has had a massive impact on my career- I was clinical lead for my department and training lead for our region in my specialty when I got pregnant. I gave these up when I went on mat leave and have gradually taken less and less prestigious roles to try to get a job that allows me to work while also dropping off at 8 and picking up at 5.30.
I find it really humiliating at work when there is an evening meeting or something in the morning before 9 and I can't get to it because I have no childcare. DH refuses to talk about other childcare options and says that it is impossible for him to have a day when he does drop-off or pick up because it would be "unprofessional".
DH has only taken 2 weeks of annual leave in the school holidays this year. He wouldn't talk to me about this, or even tell me what leave he'd taken for weeks and I ended up emailing his secretary to get a copy of his rota so I could find out when he would be about.
We have a holiday booked in a month's time and he will not talk about it at all- he says that he is in denial about it which I find really hurtful (he finds the idea of spending time with us so awful that he can't think about it).
He has also been agreeing to do things and then backing out- we were going to go skiing with his parents and after we'd talked to them, agreed a week and I'd spent ages looking at the best options he said that he wouldn't be able to stand it so I had to ring them and say that we had decided against it. The same thing happened last summer with him agreeing to us getting guinea pigs and a trampoline- he agreed to it and then after I'd told the DCs and we'd measured up and looked at the best guinea pig houses he decided that the garden had "too much crap" in it already and that we couldn't do it.
I am sure that people will be reading this and thinking that I'm being really wet- just buy the damn trampoline FFS but he gets so withdrawn that it just isn't worth the effort.
I am kind of a SAHM at the moment. My dad had a very serious accident about 2 years ago and spent 18 months in hospital. I couldn't manage doing all the school runs and seeing my dad (DH never once looked after the DCs so I could visit) and work, so I am on unpaid carer's leave and I'm due to go back to work in September. I feel like this has made the power imbalance between us much worse.
DH will not socialise with my family and tries not to see his parents (I've been to visit them with the boys but he doesn't come). I regularly take the boys away for the weekend. When he comes we often have what I think is a really good time, but he has told me that he's faking it and he hates it.
He also says that I'm very controlling but I feel like he is. He told me recently that I get everything that I want and I just didn't know what to say.
I feel like all he ever wants me to do is to take the children out do that he can have the house to himself. He says that he feels like a spare part when they are here and that he feels driven out of the house and that he can't concentrate on anything.
The thing is, he is supporting us. He will read to the DC and I'm hoping that as DS2 gets older he will be more confident with him.
I hope that I can get back to work and he will respect me a bit more and be nicer to me, but I also feel like it's very hard for me to work properly when I have to arrive late and leave early and can't do on call.
At the top of my long post I said that he would change the sheets without being asked. Just typing that made me feel a bit nervous at the idea of asking him- he'd do it himself but would hate me asking him.
He tells me that I'm controlling and that he tries not to give an opinion in case it's wrong but then sulks and mutters to himself so I spend all my time trying to guess what he wants. If I challenge him on it he stands with his hands behind his back and says that he's trying not to provoke me, but he refuses to talk to me.
I don't want a divorce, I want to have a husband who wants to spend time with us and who I can talk to without walking on eggshells trying not to say the wrong thing.
I just don't know what to do.
Thank you
@tothelaunchbay do not feel guilty about potentially having help from your family - take it!
Since the kids & I moved out we've been living with my parents. I couldn't afford to rent and it was my only option. I know I'm so lucky they were ready & willing to help. I'm hoping once I get divorced I will be able to thank them properly.
Like you I had thought about leaving for years - I marked days in my diary where he didn't even see the children. Turned out it was most days.....
By the way, it might be worth seeking some therapy with an ASD trained therapist. I had a referral from my GP and have seen a wonderful therapist who has really helped give me coping strategies and rebuild my self esteem etc. Plus it's been great to have a totally safe place to talk about things that have happened.
If you do leave, be prepared for you and the DC to suddenly become a special interest to your H. He will not like the change in routine or that you are not in your box. My therapist has pointed out all these things before they have happened and it's been helpful to know what might come next!
Anyway - talk to your mum if you can. Get help! X
My ex was and still is very controlling, but has perfected the art of turning it round onto me, sounds like your H is similar. Honestly it's all about their selfishness, he is only interested in preserving his own world whatever the cost to you and your DCs.
You mentioned that you previously had low self esteem and thought no one would marry you. He has exploited that.
Please stop thinking about him,how he will feel or react and think about yourself and creating a happy relaxed atmosphere for your children. He sounds as though he has some major issues, you've tried to help,he hasn't engaged so leave him to it. You can't fix him.
Divorce can be difficult and stressful but surely not as bad as living as you are. He is exploiting you to live as he wants. Stop enabling him and start living a new happy life.

Page 115 - There runs not a drop of my blood in the veins of any living creature. This called on me for revenge. I have sought it : I have killed many : I have fully glutted my vengeance. For my country I rejoice at the beams of peace. But do not harbor a thought that mine is the joy of fear.
Page 112 - Brother, you say there is but one way to worship and serve the Great Spirit. If there is but one religion, why do you white people differ so much about it?
Page 112 - Spirit given to us, and not only to us, but why did He not give to our forefathers the knowledge of that Book, with the means of understanding it rightly. We only know what you tell us about it. How shall we know when to believe, being so often deceived by the white people?
Page 111 - ... us. Yet we did not fear them. We took them to be friends. They called us brothers. We believed them and gave them a larger seat. At length their numbers had greatly increased. They wanted more land. They wanted our country. Our eyes were opened, and our minds became uneasy. Wars took place. Indians were hired to fight against Indians, and many of our people were destroyed. They also brought strong liquor among us. It was strong and powerful and has slain thousands.
Page 111 - Their skins served us for clothing. He had scattered them over the country and taught us how to take them. He had caused the earth to produce corn for bread. All this he had done for his red children because he loved them.

You requested us to speak our minds freely. This gives us great joy, for we now consider we stand upright before you, and can speak what we think.
Page 112 - You say that you are sent to instruct us how to worship the Great Spirit agreeably to his mind; and, if we do not take hold of the religion which you white people teach, we shall be unhappy hereafter.

Event Campaigns are marketing strategies intended to fill live events, and they are a specialty of mine at WyzGuy Consulting. I've worked on over 40 major event campaigns in the past 7 years, and every one of them has been very successful. The last such campaign I worked my team filled a room with over 600 live participants and thousands more on Livestream for a weekend workshop where the principal grossed over $2.5M in sales. That conference was also partially filled by a feeder event, where I filled a room with over 200 participants in a campaign that took less than 30 days from start to finish. I've assembled and managed call teams that were responsible for guest ticket campaigns on events where the RSVP-to-attend rate was over 95%. I've used social media to great success to both fill and generate massive positive "buzz" for a workshop that again hit that 95%+ show-up rate. I really enjoy working on event campaigns, filling workshops and passionately evangelizing my clients message out to their audience. WyzGuy is available to either consult on or outright manage your next campaign.

When it comes to keeping promises to clients about website development and event campaigns, integrity matters at WyzGuy Consulting.
The Principal of WyzGuy Consulting, Patrick Wyzorski, brings over 25 years of technological experience spread out among the areas of automation, programming, quality assurance and Internet technology. Based on his real-world experience, WyzGuy brings a wealth of expertise in technology and automation that is necessary to successfully create and manage marketing, sales and operations systems for thriving small businesses. As a case in point, WyzGuy successfully managed the marketing, sales and operations of a company called Dream University, a multi-million-dollar small business in the personal development sector owned by Marcia Wieder. As a consultant, Patrick Wyzorski created and managed the systems and processes that helped Dream University grow from a mid-six-figure yearly revenue company to one capable of putting on consecutive seven-figure events all while maintaining a relatively small staff.
WyzGuy has developed and managed a number of membership site platforms with a user base in the tens of thousands. Most of the membership site development efforts have involved a platform that incorporates WordPress, Infusionsoft and a membership plug-in called iMember360 to facilitate automated marketing, ordering and product delivery campaigns. WyzGuy has also created several online courses having developed all of the coding and automated product delivery behind them as well as produced a lot of the video/audio content that went into them. This is in addition to dozens of video blogs produced for clients over the years. WyzGuy can be used as a full service video editing, graphic creation, copy editing consulting firm as part of an ongoing retainer agreement.
Technology and the ability to command it are important characteristics when considering a tech consultant. However, technology won't win the hearts and minds of your customers—only good marketing will do that. More importantly, communications that are authentic and true to the "voice" of a client's message and platform are required to really connect with customers in this modern Internet-driven world. Authentic messaging is a very important skill when communicating with a client's audience, as people really want to be related to during the customer life cycle.
At WyzGuy, a heavy emphasis is placed on getting to know a client's message and "voice" so that they can be effectively mimic'd when communicating with customers and prospects, simply because clients can't be everywhere at all times. But WyzGuy can be there, and we're very good at what we do. In fact, we've been known to somewhat scare clients with just how good we are.

Patric Sandri b. 1979, in Uster, Switzerland. Lives and works in Zurich, Switzerland. 2012 MA, Royal College of Art, London. Sandri's work investigates the medium of painting and the perception of its properties. His focus is on the awareness of the "gaze" and the aspect of looking, whether it is by the artist, or the viewer. This extends into how light and material can interfere and interrupt the gaze and result in a phenomenological response, such as perception, affect and illusion. Sandri is trying to find room for perceptual inconsistency to be included in the phenomenon of painting. Using the mistakes of perceptual apprehension has become more and more important in the way he generates ideas and works. During the process of painting he questions the role of the "image". The function of a three-dimensional object and its carrier is explored, often deconstructed and put into a new order again. The pictorial plane is treated as a zone of impact and reaction, the body of the image carrier as an autonomous sculpture. Light completes the paintings and is thematised by the image back sides, the sides of the canvas and the stretcher bars which are painted. The colours reflect and radiate through the transparent fabrics on the background which is dipped in coloured light. The front and the backsides of the canvas are equally important and Sandri also creates illusions about these.

The purpose of this article is to make a brief summary of the problems and issues regarding the application of conventions to avoid double taxation to collective investment vehicles, and then to summarize the solution recently (2015) adopted by the Portuguese legislator to address such issues in an efficient manner.
1. Collective Investment vehicles and tax treaties
The issue of whether a Collective Investment Vehicle ("CIV") can qualify to benefit from the protection that a convention to avoid double taxation (hereinafter "DTT") may confer to taxpayers is an old problem, that has been systematically analysed over the years. The issue arises from whether CIVs may qualify as a "person" for the legal purposes of the DTT, and whether they qualify as "residents" for the same purposes.
1.1. CIVs as "persons" for DTT purposes
For a CIV to qualify as a "person" under the definition of the DTT it must be construed as a legal person under the laws of its country of incorporation. Regardless of whether the CIV is a corporate entity (a company), a fund or a trust, it must be deemed a legally autonomous entity. This means that the CIV must be an autonomous centre of imputation of rights and obligations to qualify as a "person" for DTT purposes.
A simple autonomous estate, that does not have any legal rights nor obligations, even if collectively held, in principle will not qualify for treaty protection under the concept of "person" for DTT purposes. However, the tax treatment of such a situation by the internal laws of each signatory State is relevant. If the State where the autonomous estate exists qualifies such as a taxpayer for income tax purposes, then the autonomous estate will, in principal, qualify as a "person" for DTT purposes.
In conclusion, for a CIV to qualify as a "person" for DTT purposes, and regardless of the form under which it operates, it should be considered a taxpayer of the State in which it was incorporated and/or is domiciled.
1.2. CIVs as "residents" for DTT purposes
For a CIV to qualify as a "resident" under the definition of the DTT it must be construed as an entity that not only is a taxpayer of its State of residence (i.e. a "person" according to the DTT) but also an entity that is liable to tax because of its residence (place of effective management, incorporation, etc.). As regards CIVs, this is important to the extent that most jurisdictions have created tax regimes for CIVs that attempt to avoid double taxation by ensuring that either the CIV, or the investors in the CIV, are exempt from taxation.
In those cases where the CIV is not liable to tax or is totally exempt from taxation regarding its income (for example, because it is a fiscally transparent entity), and taxation only occurs at the level of the investors, it is arguable that the DTT should not apply to the CIV. Generally speaking, the investors will need to invoke DTT protection in their jurisdictions of residence (when applicable).
We note that some States adopt the position that if a CIV is liable to tax, but totally exempt, it may still qualify for DTT protection. However, a large number of States, including Portugal, do not share this view, as expressed in the commentaries to the OECD Model Tax Convention.
2. The (new) Portuguese Tax Regime for CIV
In January 2015, the Portuguese tax regime for CIVs was deeply revised with the aim of turning the regime more attractive to foreign investment in Portugal, and also to promote the application of savings in the Portuguese territory. The new regime entered into force on the 1st of July of 2015.
In this sense, bearing in mind such goals, the Portuguese taxation model was aligned with the regimes in force in most Member States of the European Union, evolving from a taxation system in the sphere of the CIV to an "exiting" tax system, without jeopardizing, nonetheless, the tax position of non-resident investor's in Portugal.
Portuguese CIV now benefit from a favourable tax treatment based on the principle that the holder of the units will have the same basic tax treatment than if it had invested directly in the assets held by the CIV. This is relevant, as Portuguese CIV are flexible in their legal form, as they can be either investment funds or corporate entities, both forms subject to the same tax regime.
For taxation purposes, CIVs are now similar to normal companies, as they are taxed, as a rule, on their profits and the taxable income is subject to the general corporate income tax rate. However, CIVs are tax exempted as regards specific types of income, namely investment income, rental income and capital gains (with exception made to income derived from entities resident for tax purposes in "tax haven" territories).
Thus, only a small part of the income generated by the CIV will be actually subject to tax. We note, however, that introducing the rule of being subject to tax (although with several exemptions), allows for the possibility of having such investment vehicles (regardless of the form they assume: funds of companies) being eligible for the application of the DTT.
By avoiding the possibility of Portuguese CIV can be considered transparent for tax purposes, the Portuguese tax legislator has avoided the possibility of them not qualifying for DTT purposes, which would make it necessary to disclose every participant of the vehicle in order to assess whether the DTT could be applicable in particular for each one of them.
This was one of the relevant issues addressed by the Portuguese authorities when changing the regime as it solved one of the biggest obstacles for foreign investors in Portuguese funds, especially when compared to other international vehicles of the same sort.
As reagrds the participants/holders of the participation units in Portuguese CIV, the rule now in force is the taxation «at exit». Although in abastract the rule is the same for investors resident and non-resident for tax purposes in Portugal, non-residents may benefit from a tax relief, although an exception is made as regards income paid by Real Estate CIV, where a flat tax rate of 10% is applicable, as better explained below.
2.1. Investors resident in Portugal for tax purposes
As regards Individuals (when the income is not obtained in the course of a commercial activity, where specific rules apply), income distributed by the CIVs and capital gains from the redemption of units/participations are subject to definitive withholding tax at the rate of 28%. Investor may opt to add that income/gains to the remaining income and subject it to taxation at the progressive rates. The positive balance between capital gains and capital losses realized in the tax year on the disposal of units/participations to a third party is taxed at the autonomous rate of 28%.
In what concerns corporate entities, income distributed by the CIV is subject to withholding tax at the rate of 25% (which is not final – it is a payment on account) and should be included in the taxable profit of the year. Gains arising from the redemption and/or the disposal of units/participations to a third party are not subject to withholding, being included in the taxable profit of the year.
2.2. Investors not resident in Portugal for tax purposes
Income distributed and gains arising from the redemption of units/participations of Real Estate CIV are subject to withholding tax, at a definitive rate of 10% – this rule is applicable both to individuals and companies. Any capital gain arising from the disposal of units/participations to a third party is subject to an autonomous taxation of 10%.
On the contrary, income distributed and gains arising from the redemption of units/participations in Securities CIV are tax exempted as regards non-resident investors. The regime has a clear intention to promote foreign investment by determining a very low tax cost when investing in Portugal through a CIV.
However, an aggravation of the tax rate is applicable when the entities are resident, for tax purposes, in a "Tax Haven" – 28% will be applicable to individuals and 25% to companies.
To be noted, nonetheless, that, income paid by Real Estate CIV (and subject to the abovementioned flat tax rate of 10%) is qualified as property income for domestic and DTT purposes. As a consequence, the provisions of the DTT regarding the distribution of dividends and capital gains derived from the sale of securities will not be applicable. Additionally, the Portuguese participation exemption regime, that might have been applicable in such a way as to exempt dividend distributions and capital gains from the sale of participations (if the Real Estate CIV were a corporate entity) will not apply.
2.3. Stamp Tax
A final remark on the new rule introduced as regards Stamp Tax on CIV. In return for the more favourable taxation regime regarding Portuguese CIV, a rule where Stamp Tax is due on the total net value of the assets under management was also introduced, to be paid by the management companies on behalf of the CIV.
For the purposes of determining the Stamp Duty due, the following rates shall apply on a quarterly basis:
- 0,0025% where the CIU invests exclusively in money market instruments and deposits;
- 0.125% in all other cases.
3. Interaction of the Portuguese CIV regime with DTT
As stated above, the tax regime applicable to CIV in Portugal (corporate or investment funds) implies that these entities are only exempt on specific categories of income. As such, they are not only liable to tax, but are actual taxpayers that are exposed to corporate income tax in Portugal. In this way, the Portuguese CIV regime is not only tax efficient, it works well with DTT.
This tax regime implies that Portuguese CIVs may qualify as both "persons" and "residents" for DTT purposes and, as such, are an interesting vehicle for investors interested in not only the Portuguese market, but also looking into vehicles that might be usable for international investments. Portugal is not only a member of the EU, but also currently has a broad network of DTTs, that cover 79 jurisdictions (although only 70 DTT are actually in force).
However, certain care should be taken, as special investment vehicle regimes available in Portugal, such as that applicable to risk capital investment funds, do establish a full exemption and, as such, are regimes that may be questioned from a DTT perspective. As such, it is always recommendable to consult a specialist to ensure that the most efficient form of investment is being made, and that issues will not arise in the medium/long term.

Sandrina & Paula… Appreciation
What Sandrina says about the Braveheart Woman Shoot with me:
"The Braveheart Woman Photo Shoot with Luna was definitely unique.
I usually expect photo shoots to aim towards creating a certain vibe: beautiful, bizarre, mysterious, extraordinary,… But this shoot was not about acting and pretending.
Instead, Luna started our session with a short meditation, guiding me from head to heart, away from my thoughts and into feeling. She allowed to me feel and live what was willing to be expressed. And this time nothing was fake or unnatural, but really ME who was expressed in the photographs. ME with all feelings and emotions that have always existed within and were now given the opportunity to come to light.
Joyful, serious, graceful, afraid, innocent, cheeky, naked, laughing, screaming. Even crying would have been warmly welcomed. Everything that was already there could find its honorable place. To be honest, it wasn't easy and I felt very vulnerable. But Luna was able to hold a safe space and guide me back into peaceful ease.
From up in the sky, we must have looked like two little girls playing in the woods. Wildly naïve, completely innocent and entirely free.
Thanks to this photo shoot with Luna, I found my voice. Never before has "roaring like a lioness" been such a liberating force in my life.
Thank you very much, Luna. I am looking forward to future projects together. "
Sandrina, Artist

What Paula says about the shoot:
"Wild, joyful, loving, angry, sexy, sad, defiant. We all experience these feelings and at times it's good to show them instead of swallowing them all!
The Braveheart Woman Shoot with Luna was fantastic. She held a safe space for me to express all aspects of myself.
This was not a photo shoot to get some nice pictures. It's a shoot to capture your own, true beauty. We don't have to look pretty or be happy to be beautiful. We're beautiful when we fully embody our true self.
No matter who you are, Luna will always allow you to be authentically You.
I'm deeply grateful for Luna supporting me to see all the different faces of my beauty. "

Ten- to 15-year-old flower and vegetable seeds that germinate as well as the day they rolled off the production line may become a reality in the future, all thanks to quantum physics.
W.C. Levengood, of Pinelandia Biophysics Lab in Michigan, has concluded that infusion technology involving lithium phantom atoms considerably increases the vitality of dormant, seven-year-old wheat seeds by as much as 83 percent. Results of the nine-day Vital Force Technology study show that water enhanced with lithium phantom atoms improved seed germination, initiated stronger roots and produced hardier seedlings, increasing plant development by nearly 77 percent.
It's no secret that seed viability often goes down as seed age goes up. A plant embryo can only survive for so long on the nutrients housed in its seed casing before it shrivels and dies. Millions of seeds are destroyed every year as a result of lost viability, and it makes long-term storage a challenge.
The study, which is part of a greater research focus to determine the correlation between the energetic imprint of periodic table elements and plant health, could potentially have beneficial ramifications for the horticulture industry down the road in the form of resilient seed germination and plant longevity. And the benefits may not be limited to seeds.
Additional studies in the same lab on pinto bean seedlings showed energy-infused water increased plant height, with 75 percent of seedlings in the study growing close to 30 centimeters (approximately 12 inches) in just seven days.
This type of technology has been around for a while, but its worth keeping an eye on for future developments.
The full germination study is housed on the Vital Force Technology website, where you can also find out more about other studies conducted throughout various industries.

Product Training & Tips
Most drivers who are convicted of driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs do not reoffend and take steps to change the behavior that led to the DUI arrest and conviction. However, some drivers continue to drive while under the influence and subsequently continue to pick up DUI arrests. In the past, DUI was not treated very seriously and those with multiple previous DUI convictions did not face overly severe punishments. However, organizations such as Mothers Against Drunk Drivers ("MADD") brought attention to the dangers of impaired driving, specifically the great number of traffic fatalities caused by drunk drivers. MADD uncovered many cases in which fatal traffic collisions were caused by impaired drivers with numerous prior DUI convictions that carried little or no consequences. As a result, the law has been changed to significantly increase the penalties for drivers who have multiple prior DUI convictions.
There is no limit to the number of prior DUI convictions that a person can accumulate over the course of a lifetime. However, when a driver is charged with four or more DUI offenses occurring within a ten year period, the fourth or subsequent offense will be considered a felony and the defendant can be sentenced to prison for up to three years. When considering prior offenses, California courts will look at convictions from any county in California and even DUI or DWI convictions from other states. The prosecution will have access to the defendant's driving record and rap sheet and will be able to determine how many times he or she has been convicted of driving under the influence.
Technically, a person can continue to commit DUI offenses even after serving time in prison for a felony DUI offense. The state has set up numerous roadblocks to prevent these drivers from getting behind the wheel, however some repeat DUI offenders find ways to continue to drive while impaired. The California Department of Motor Vehicles will designate a driver a Habitual Traffic Offender after a third DUI offense and their driving privileges will be subsequently revoked for any other violations of the DUI laws. However, not having a valid license does not stop many people from driving and it is not unusual to see DUI offenses committed by those who are not legally permitted to drive a motor vehicle.
It is important to remember that a person arrested for DUI can only be charged with a felony when he or she has three or more prior convictions that occurred within the previous ten years. In many cases, defendants may have numerous DUI convictions that occurred 10, 20 or even 30 years earlier. These cases would not be considered prior offenses under the law and would not trigger mandatory sentencing provisions. However, it is critical to remember that prosecutors and judges would be aware of these prior convictions and would likely take them into account when imposing sentence on the defendant's current offense.

The fifth-ranked University of Mary Washington women's lacrosse team knocked off the University of Mount Union, 18-6, to spoil their perfect season and advance to the regional section of the NCAA tournament where they will face Gettysburg at a time and place to be determined. The Eagles improve to 17-4 on the season. Julia Albert led the team with five goals and two assists.
UMW jumped out ahead as they scored the first three goals. Paige Haskins got the scoring start as she scored on an assist from Holly Hudson 3:32 into the game. Allison Davis then scored on two free position opportunities to put UMW up 3-0 with 21:10 remaining. Mount Union got on the board with 19:14 to play.
The Eagles broke open the game as they managed to score seven straight goals and take a 10-1 lead. Albert scored her first goal with 17:52 left, and then Savannah Boyd scored unassisted to go up 5-1. Holly Hudson put away a free position shot with 14:50 to play. Davis then added her third goal of the day and Mackenzie Maguire scored on a free position shot with 9:08 remaining to go up 8-1. Kristen Kunaniec came off the bench and scored on an assist from Albert, and then Hope Lockwood scored on an assist from Kunaniec to cap the 7-0 run by UMW.
The Raiders ended that streak with a goal from Danielle Rohrman with 3:55 remaining that got the game within eight, 10-2. Over the last 2:04, Kunaniec scored on an assist from Davis and then Albert scored with 59 seconds to play that put UMW up 10 at halftime.
In the second half, Albert scored just 57 seconds in to put UMW up 11, 13-2. The Raiders then added their third goal of the day with 22:09 to play. Maguire scored her second goal of the day to put the Eagles back up 11 with 19:39 to play. Mount Union answered as they scored two goals in a row and get the game to nine, 14-5.
UMW responded to the Raiders mini-run and added four in a row to put the game away. Maguire scored on an assist from Albert with 11:03 left, and less than a minute later Lockwood scored unassisted. Albert scored the last two goals for the Eagles, one coming off an assist from Kennedy King and the other on a free position shot, to put UMW up 18-5 with 6:19 to play. The Raiders capped the scoring on the day as they scored with just 3:01 to play and UMW held on to win 18-6.
Paige Childers led the team with seven draw controls, while Kirsten Littlefield had five. Littlefield picked up three ground balls and Savannah Boyd grabbed two of them. Hanna Ashby made three saves in goal, and Shannon Bremer made two on the day for the Eagles.
UMW led in draw controls 19-6, shots 34-19, and ground balls 16-8. The Eagles were 14-16 on clears.

Facial symmetry plays a role in attractiveness, but a small degree of asymmetry is normal and more common than symmetry. Mild asymmetry has been noted in the general population, even in the absence of pathology such as trauma or craniosynostosis.1,2 Asymmetry may be static or dynamic and is thought to arise from a multitude of developmental factors, including skeletal, neurologic, and soft tissue changes, as well as photoaging.3-5 Cosmetic and reconstructive surgical procedures strive to achieve facial symmetry. Patients often are unaware of their preexisting facial asymmetry.6 Anecdotally, we have found patients tend to be more cognizant of preexisting facial asymmetry following a notable change in facial appearance (eg, surgery). In counseling patients who are considering reconstructive or cosmetic surgery, it is beneficial to identify any preexisting facial asymmetries and discuss if they are within normal limits. The current literature, however, lacks thresholds for what is considered normal in many cases. In this study, we reviewed 100 faces without unilateral or orbital pathology or diplopia to describe the occurrence of facial asymmetries, including larger hemiface and hemiface with greater excursion of motion upon smiling (interpreted to signify stronger seventh cranial nerve), hemiface with more rhytides at rest, higher globe, higher earlobe, and higher lip.
One hundred oculofacial surgery patients without unilateral or orbital pathology or diplopia were included in this retrospective evaluation of static and dynamic facial asymmetry via facial photography (100 participants). Three graders were provided standard frontal and frontal smiling photographs with overlying facial grids to aid in assessing larger hemiface and hemiface with stronger seventh cranial nerve, which was judged in smiling photographs by assessing the excursion and the vector of motion; more rhytides at rest; higher globe; higher earlobe; and higher lip. Difference in globe height was measured relative to interpupillary distance (IPD) and recorded as the ratio of difference in globe height to IPD. The data were analyzed to see if there were any correlations among the 6 variables. This study was approved by the Duke University Health System (Durham, North Carolina) institutional review board.
One hundred photographs were analyzed including 82 women aged 42 to 85 years and 18 men aged 22 to 88 years (overall average age, 61.64 years). The average difference in globe height was 1.2% of IPD; the maximum was 4.4% of IPD. The difference in globe height was verified by 3 graders via 2 different methods. Fifty-four patients were found to have a larger right hemiface, 36 had a larger left hemiface, and 10 had symmetrically sized hemifaces. Nearly half of patients were judged to have greater seventh cranial nerve action on the left (n=47), approximately one-quarter had greater action on the right (n=28), and another quarter were judged to have equal action (n=25). Most patients had static facial asymmetry; 72 had rhytides more pronounced on one hemiface compared to the other, 79 with a difference in globe height, and 68 with a difference in lip height. In approximately 40% of photographs, the graders were unable to judge earlobe height difference; therefore, this data was not analyzed. There was no correlation among the 6 variables.
Facial asymmetry has long been a topic of interest in the plastic and reconstructive surgery fields. Ercan et al7 used statistical shape analysis to study facial asymmetry in young healthy subjects and found the left hemiface to be larger than the right hemiface in both sexes. Smith4 evaluated facial asymmetry in healthy college students and found the left hemiface to be larger in males and the right hemiface to be larger in females. Our group was predominantly female, but we found the right hemiface to be larger in both females and males, similar to the findings of Lepich et al.8
We also found that most patients had static and dynamic facial asymmetry despite no known unilateral pathology. The present literature lacks normative values to help determine what degree of asymmetry should be considered pathologic. Vertical orbital dystopia is defined as an inequality in the horizontal levels of the whole orbits.9 It has been hypothesized that most vertical dystopia is caused by congenital malformations, but no threshold has been set for the difference in height that qualifies as dystopia.10 Regarding the difference we found in globe height relative to IPD, if one takes the mean IPD of 63.36 mm (based on a study of 3976 American adults aged 17–51 years)11 and makes the assumption that our patients have this IPD, then one can extrapolate that on average there was a difference of 0.76 mm between the 2 globe heights. Likewise, nearly all patients (n=96) had less than a 2-mm difference (21 had symmetric globe heights, 46 had a difference in globe height of <1 mm, and 29 had a difference of >1 mm and <2 mm). Four patients had a difference greater than 2 mm, with the largest difference being 2.75 mm. A limitation of this retrospective study is the need to extrapolate these distances, as our patients were not photographed with rulers.
Hafezi et al12 looked at the facial asymmetry in patients without history of trauma or nasal fracture who were seeking rhinoplasty. They noted vertical orbital dystopia in this patient population, but the degree of dystopia was not quantified.12 We believe our data highlight the importance of counseling patients about preexisting facial asymmetry with normative values in mind. Patients may be dissatisfied by new or preexisting asymmetry following surgery, even if such asymmetries are less objectively apparent than in the patient's preoperative appearance. Even when patients are already acutely aware of their facial asymmetries, they should learn that facial asymmetries, to varying degrees, are natural and not necessarily unattractive. In fact, a 2006 study of ocular adnexal asymmetry in 102 models with magazine photograph analysis found small amounts of asymmetry to be the norm. Specifically, the authors found an average difference in globe height of 1.2 mm, slightly greater than the average found among our patients.13 Our data will help to establish normative values for asymmetry in normal faces.

Behaviour Issues / Home Assessment
Are you having any issues with your dog?
A number of issues owners experience actually fall under the banner of 'behaviour issues'.
Things like; pulling on the lead, poor recall and separation anxiety are good examples of this.
Behaviour issues doesn't just mean being aggressive.
Of course we can apply training techniques to the examples given above, but before doing this I always recommend an initial assessment from your home.
This is a great place to start, we can view the dog and how they behave in their domain and also see how they are set up in the home environment.
As often is the case, it is a result of how your dog lives day to day which can start to impose what we call dominance.
But fear not, small changes can be made around the home which will give you back control and help get the behaviour you want.
Add to this a course of training and you should see results happening from as little as a few weeks. And as long as you stick to the plan these results will be permanent.
Our aim is to move you on from the frustration of your dog not doing what you would like them to.
Get in touch to arrange a visit and start the process to a happier life for both you as owners and for your beloved pet.
Please find more information and pricing below.
Initial assessment prices
A standard assessment is £40.00*
An initial assessment gives us the chance to discuss any issues you are experiencing, but also gives me the opportunity to observe the dog's behaviour in the home.
I can also see how the dog is set up in their home environment; where they sleep, how they are fed, and other situations that we will go through on the day, can have an effect on behaviour.
As part of the visit we will discuss changes you can implement around the house to help adjust the behaviour and take back control.
We will also put together a plan going forward with some training which will be tailored to you and your dog's needs, if you so desire.
A premium assessment is £50.00*
As above but with a behaviour guide included for continued reference and follow up contact to discuss how things are going and to offer more advice if required.
* A fuel contribution charge may apply if more than 2 miles outside of Cirencester.
** Bank Holiday rates differ to the prices above.
Booking an initial assessment
Please get in touch to book an assessment by using the 'Contact Us' form.
We can then book an appointment and you can pay by Paypal, bank transfer or cash on the day.

Peace, joy, pancakes - the risks
Cool bosses, who play table tennis with their staff, organize summers and go on holiday together with the whole team, are a symbol of a new, more social world of work. The boss, who also shows his human, soft side, is regarded as an example. But is it really like that?
Tip: Text as PDF (please read the instructions!) or to this text complete eCourse Download. Regular promotions or news per Newsletter!
Feelgood-Management, but also its risks and side effects, we have already reported several times in detail - including in the interview with Monika Krauss-Wildegger.
When Nice Bosses become a problem
From my own experience, I know that too nice bosses can sometimes be a problem. For example, when they see employees as their friends, want to be liked by everyone - and then find it difficult to make even unpleasant decisions. And they are necessary when it comes to the well-being of the entire company.
Exactly for this opinion has been Best of HR – Berufebilder.de®-Author Roland Jäger was heavily criticized for his performance at Anne Will, for example, he was accused of representing an authoritarian, no longer contemporary style of leadership. In this, Jäger is of the opinion that a boss, who thinks about the good of his company, also helps his employees.
How not to do it
An example of how one should not make it better, according to Jäger: Mr. Lieblich visits a customer with his new employee. A friendly conversation during the trip is followed by an excellent contract conclusion. Because boss and customer understand themselves blindingly, the new sits a little apart, listens and is grateful that he does not have to be active himself. Chef Lieblich is also extremely satisfied and the gratitude of his staff warms his heart. The customer is flattered that the boss himself takes care of him. Everyone is happy. But is everything also good?
Tip: Text as PDF (please read the instructions!) or to this text complete eCourse Download. Regular promotions or news per Newsletter!
Rather not, because unfortunately Mr. Lieblich has lost sight of his real task: He should lead his staff. Part of that is that he sets clear goals, but not that he takes work from them. He usually has no time for that. Unfortunately the reality looks different, like Roland Jäger from his many years as a management consultant knows: "Even bosses want to be loved and needed. Therefore, many are afraid to speak a clear word, to intervene consistently and sometimes to make unpleasant decisions. Rather, they provide with nice words and gestures that peace-joy-pancake mood prevails - until sometime the evil awakening comes! "
Nice bosses are cowardly and selfish
And that comes inevitably. Because what these nice bosses often overlooked: In reality, they do not care for the well-being of their employees - but only for their own. That's cowardly and comfortable - says Jäger. "Employees realize very quickly, how they use the cuddling need of their boss best - for example by always leaving the important tasks to the boss and abusing his good nature. In the long term, however, the performance of the company's department suffers just like that. But someday someone will clean up properly, "warns Jäger.
It would be better to forgive constantly as a mistake or even jump for the subordinates always in the breach to signal clearly: "I stand behind you. And so I'll cut off the escape route for you too. Look, that you can handle the situation. I'm sure you can do that. "That means getting down to it hard when needed - but not just arbitrarily making despotic decisions - as Jäger makes clear:" A good boss decides on the good of everyone, but thinks so but first and foremost the good of the Company, In plain language: He does not harass his employees, but stands behind them. But not in front of them. "
10 Tips for better management
Chefs should not be too nice? 5 Practical Tips for Better Management Roland Jäger:
Tip: Text as PDF (please read the instructions!) or to this text complete eCourse Download. Regular promotions or news per Newsletter!
- Control instead of praise: Managers do not deserve praise but control. It is unjust if all employees are treated equally.
- The boss has to know what he wants! The saying goes: The hard dogs have the strongest packs. Employees are happy when their boss knows what he wants.
- Well meant is the opposite of good! Inconsistent bosses do not deserve trust, but disempowerment, because the cuddle course brings war instead of peace.
- Who does not fly, who flies! Highly qualified employees without self-propulsion must be separated, unmotivated high potentials are the worst employees.
- Employee loyalty is a myth: Whose best employees after three years do not cancel, is a bad boss!
- Please do not mother: The best bosses do not stand in front of their employees, but behind them - it does not help anyone to protect employees from the consequences of their actions.
- Good nature is a waste of money: Forgiving bosses do not prove greatness, but waste money. Why undisciplined employees have a right to severe sanctions.
- Just do not show weakness: Chefs of weak employees are themselves weak and dependent on their teams.
- Consequence is more important than creativity: Not ingenious ideas, but consistent action brings success - for managers, perseverance is therefore more important than creativity.
- Teamwork is important: With the right team, every strategy is the right one. The boss, on the other hand, does not use the best compass when traveling alone

We have 150 students in art right now, and I had 50 break before they went into the kiln, and I'm not sure if the rest will make it. Thanks to a couple of staff who helped on an early out, we made up 25 more, and they are still to be fired. And all glazed, before we can even think about weaving. When we do, Ill update. Here's what we have so far...
It is a slab technique. I made a frame like this one for cutting slabs quickly, from something I saw on Pinterest.
then we use rollers to apply texture, and used a template to trace the opening and loom holes.
Flip it over, put name on it. Set it on paper towel on a clay board to dry. Put in kiln, fire, glaze, fire, and string up the weft. weave between. see this website for great details.

Happy Donut Day!
4 comments:
Brownie donuts sound amazing!ReplyDelete
I haven't been by there to get a free donut, but I had a donut for breakfast. Yay for celebrating!
Oh, and the donut printables were absolutely adorable! I love the "Donut Fret" one.
Have a lovely day!
Thanks so much for stopping by & leaving a comment, Jameson! Yes, the brownie batter donut was SO good, & I think God knew I was gonna need something sweet today, cause the rest of my day didn't go as planned {in a NOT so good way (in my opinion that's an understatement, but God is still good)}. Ugh, but I'll keep marching {I suppose}. =) I will, & you do, too!ReplyDelete
I'm sorry to hear that. :/ I hope things are going better for you now though. I'll be praying for you :)ReplyDelete
Thanks so much, Jameson! I love prayers {& need em}! It's a slow process, but I'm okay.ReplyDelete
P.S.: Can I pray for you about anything? If not, I'll just pray "in general" for ya, God knows what you need. =)
Hey! Thanks so much for stopping by Bess' Bag - I love these "little visits!" Feel free to leave your respectful insight here... =)

You have no item in your shopping cart.
Hard to believe that it's already June. Summer is creeping up on us, the weather starting to heat up, and cord cutting baseball fans are about to get an epic dose of cable-free baseball. Yes, that's right, the month of June is jam packed with games that don't require any subscriptions, so watching MLB for free is super simple.
That means no cable subscriptions.
No streaming service subscriptions.
No monthly fees.
Nada. Zip.
In fact, the only thing you'll need to catch all the action, is simple device called the over-the-air (OTA) TV antenna. Now if you don't know what an OTA antenna is, it's an antenna that let's you pick up broadcast networks in your area for free, many of them available in full HD.
What does "broadcast networks in your area" mean? Simply put this means stations like NBC, ABC, and Fox. Often, but depending on where you live, you will also get access to a few local access channels as well (sub-channels).
The reason why this matters to you, the cord cutting baseball fan, is that Fox, the sole broadcast network with the rights to MLB games, will air the majority of their games in the month of June on the regular Fox broadcast network.
In total, there are going to be 12 MLB games airing on Fox in June – 4 of which you will have access too (more on that later). That is a huge increase over the previous month, which only had FOUR OTA games total, for the entire month.
Here's what the lineup looks like on FOX:
As you can see, this schedule is broken up into 4 different sections. Within each section, we have three different games airing at the same time. This represents all the games airing on FOX across the nation. And the game that you will have access too, will depend on your Geo location.
For the most part, local games take precedent. To figure out which game will air in your area, use a tool like TitanTV.
Now if you're not satisfied with this selection of games, or you just need more to supplement your OTA baseball viewing, there are a lot of other options for watching baseball without cable. You can check out that guide here.
Which game are you looking forward to most this month? Let us know in the comments below or sound off on social media!
Founded in 2011, KilltheCableBill.com is one of the top resources online for cord cutters and cord-nevers.
Millions of people are canceling their cable TV subscription, in favor of cable TV alternatives that offer the same or similar services at a fraction of the price. What would you do with an extra $100 month?
Simple, Cost Effective Cable TV Alternatives.

Let's get to know one of SAM Teachers from CDO who said that her greatest achievement as a SAM teacher is when her students develop the attitude of not "GIVING UP". She was recently awarded as "Best SAM Trainer" for the month of October.
Aloha Nie is an entrepreneur and a mother of 4 wonderful children. She has been teaching SAM Singapore Math at her own center located at Macasandig.
1.What made you decide on teaching at SAM?
My desire to train my own children to love the subject they hated.
2. What do you think is the advantage of Singapore Math vs the traditional Math?
Singapore Math focus on concept. It encourages children to think, discover, and understand word problems by making use of manipulative, drawings, and their imagination in order to solve it and not just depending on formulas given that they can't understand. It is a multi-sensory approach of teaching Math.
3. Why do you think some students dislike Math?
Most kids hate Math because they are taught in a way that they will just follow the step by step procedure or things spoonfed to them. When the question changes they began to panic simply because from the start they didn't understand the concept. They hate Math because they can't see the relevance of it in their daily life. Most of my students can calculate 1/3 plus 1/6 fast but they don't know where to apply it in real life situations. When I asked them to explain how they got their answer, they can't explain it anymore. In this scenario, it only shows that they failed to understand the concept.
In one of my class, I told the kids that they need to prove their answer is right by using a cake made of clay. Kids were excited to slice the clay cake and they discover on their own the explanation to their answer.
4. What is your biggest hurdle as a SAM teacher/trainer?
The smart kids who are very good in traditional method (procedural) . They have the tendency to do short cut methods that they don't understand but can still come up with the correct answers. As a SAM trainer, I have to make sure that they can explain how they got their answers because they have the tendency to become lazy thinkers. These are the kids who excel in math during their primary level up or sometimes even up to high school and then suddenly take a deep dive during college because Math becomes complicated to memorize.
5. What is your biggest achievement as a SAM teacher/trainer?
It is an honor and greatest achievement when my kids and students start to develop the grit/ attitude of not "GIVING UP" on unfamiliar and challenging questions. The big smile on their face, their eureka moments where they empower themselves by discovering the answer on their own is priceless. Math is not just about perfect scores but self discovery of their potentials and giving meaning to the numbers they learn in their classroom through application in their daily activities.
6. How long would does it normally take for a student to fully understand methods and processes of a Singapore Math curriculum?
It varies from one child to another. Learning Singapore Math is a journey where every child is encourage to explore, discover and appreciate the concept through fun and games.
In SAM, numbers becomes tangible and the data given in word problems can be represented through the use of manipulative/toys. Our pre schoolers thought they are just playing during SAM sessions but they are actually learning place value at an early age. While the primary students are encourage to create their own method to come up with the correct answer as long as they can explain the " whys"and not just the "hows".
7. What is your advice to parents who are thinking of enrolling their kids at SAM?
SAM teachers/ trainers are not tutors therefore we don't spoon-feed the kids. It may take awhile for some kids to appreciate or love Math. Therefore we encourage parents to support the journey of their kids by being more patient & loving and to collaborate with SAM trainers to make their kids SAM experience worth every cent they spend.

Sue Martin who spent her childhood in Dr Barnardo's homes has published a book, "No Way Home" in which she tells of the horrific experiences she endured.
"No Way Home" recounts Sue's experiences whilst at Babies Castle , St Christopher's St Anne's Dr Barnardo's homes.
Sue was three years old when she was put into care with her five siblings by her widowed mother. Sue and her siblings were separated and she was sent to Babies Castle.
Sue suffers nightmares reliving her first night at Babies Castle; "a toddler thrown into a bin of urine soaked bed sheets as punishment for crying too loudly." Sue's life here was, "regimented by tasks and strict discipline." She remembers one child being forced to feed to the extent that she almost choked.
"They shoved so much food in her mouth she couldn't take any more and it started coming out of her nose. Then of course she got even more if a hammering because she wasted the food. Her forehead was wet with sweat, she was puce and choking."
At the age of fifteen Sue was sent to St Christopher's. A female member of staff systematically bullied and sexually abused her for the rest of her time at this home. She recalls, " here she shaken so hard by one member of staff that she was given whiplash damaging her nerves and causing her sensitivity to light to this day."
Aged seven she remembers being, "pulled into a washroom and sexually abused by two of the staff and then feed through a mangle," "They really got to me physically and I was beginning to wonder what they have done to my mind. I concentrated on that and as the hours passed and the physical pain diminished so my thoughts and reason seemed to come back albeit slowly. I lay there and thought never mind yer body- mind yer mind."
At St Anne's Sue suffered sexual abuse by a woman in the middle of the night, which only stopped when Sue struck her. "I was terrified, the shocked noisy gasp from me told I had indeed connected somewhere and she was hurt. Then she was gone without a sound. It took a while to stop the shakes. This resulted from a mixture of horror and pure adrenalin."
Sue met her future husband Owen at nineteen and they were happily married for many years. The years of the abuse she suffered did however live with her. She recounts when she first told her husband of the abuse she had suffered as a child,
"The first time I spoke to Owen about any of what had happened it was our wedding night," she said. "In the dark his hands touched me and I freaked out. I completely lost all sense of presence. All I had in that moment was being abused. "Owen was lovely. I went very quiet and he said I had to tell him what it was and I told him and he was horrified
Sue is now 75 years old and has a daughter and granddaughter.
Jordans Solicitors represent a large number of client's who have suffered abuse by staff members in homes which were run by Dr Barnardo's. Where a person abuses a position of trust and commits an act of assault, a claim may be possible. We would encourage anyone affected to contact us to pursue a civil claim,.

These are exciting times indeed for proponents of medical marijuana or cannabis, as this alternative form of treatment continues to gain traction among millions of citizens in the United States. Gone are the days when marijuana was merely considered an illegal substance; these days, the plant is highly valued and sought after for its therapeutic and medicinal properties.
Presently, 29 states in the US (including the District of Columbia) have already passed legislation in one form or another allowing the purchase, possession, and use of marijuana or cannabis for approved medical purposes. The United States is the latest in a substantial list of countries around the globe that have similarly made legal marijuana or cannabis available for medical use.
While great strides have already been accomplished in making marijuana more acceptable to society, a lot of work still has to be done in order to make it a full-fledged and respected form of alternative medical treatment. A lot of regulations also have to be put in place in order to ensure that the medical marijuana industry remains a professional and profitable one.
Not Sure Which CrEATe Oil Is The One For You? Let Us Help!
In 2017 and 2018, a lot of exciting developments occurred concerning medical marijuana or cannabis in terms of medical research and development, policies and legislation, as well as attitudes and opinions of people about this alternative mode of medical treatment. Here are just some of the noteworthy news that broke in 2017:
High-End Oils And Chef Curated Recipes, Delivered To Your Door
By many indications, there is increasing interest in medical marijuana, if not outright support and usage. It only goes to show that many people continue to be convinced that such treatment effectively addresses their medical and lifestyle issues. From dreaded diseases such as diabetes, cancer, and HIV to commonplace ailments such as chronic pain, insomnia, and depression—medical marijuana has been shown to provide benefits previously not found in traditional pharmacological solutions.
What's sure is that dialogue among various stakeholders in society as well as continuous research and study are needed in the years ahead. This is to ensure that medical marijuana is developed and institutionalized in the medical field in the proper manner, for the benefit of the greater good.
CrEATe is a direct-to-consumer culinary cannabis subscription that includes world-class educational materials, high-end oils, and exclusive chef-curated recipes. Embark on a transformative culinary journey.
