What to Do?
You've discovered after many years of having good to great sex suddenly your wife is turning away from you and you want to know why. Only you and your wife can truly know the answer to that question, but in order to answer this, I will give you some questions to help you discover why the 'magic' or 'spark' has faded.
With women studies have shown that sex is 90% mental and 10% physical. This means we have to actually like the person we want to have sex with. And the physical side comes in very low compared to everything else. So quit worrying that you don't have that 8 pack abs you always wanted. It didn't bother her before, its not going to bother her now. Keep in mind this is about her, not you.
That maturity level of men and women differ greatly. Most women (not all of course) mature fully and continue to do so throughout her life. Most men (not all of course) do not mature beyond the age of 12. Think of your 12 year old self and ask yourself, what are MY differences? Do I still want toys, only bigger and more expensive ones? Am I my only concern? Yes, I have been responsible and have raised or am still raising children and holding down a job, but am I still a bit selfish? Can you see the similarities between your 12 year old self and current?
This article was designed from a poll of women, not just one, of the various things that are on our minds when it comes to sex. This is what we think, these are our thoughts. If it helps for a man to understand what I am doing here, think of it as I am allowing you behind 'enemy lines' to see our defenses. This is not something such as 'Man Bashing', we really want you to understand how we think and feel.
Secrets — From the Mind of a Woman
The biggest thing that you should start with is asking yourself, is she angry? Did you do something real or imagined that could be making her upset with you? I'm not suggest it's something as simple as forgetting to take out the trash, unless of course for the last 20 years she has had to remind you daily to do so. I am talking something bigger. Have you cheated on her? If you think she does not know about that infidelity, are you sure? Has she suspected you've cheated on her? The unknown can wreak havoc on the mind of a woman.
Granted there are some women out there who like 'angry sex' but the majority of women who have been in a relationship for years find that wearisome. We get tired of you doing something that makes us mad, then having sex to 'get over it'.
Have your ideas about sex changed? Are there things you want to do that might repulse her? Do you have a secret stash of nudie magazines or movies that you think you have hidden well? If this is the case, then she may feel you are keeping something from her.
Or possibly, have your ideas about sex NOT changed? Are you doing the same mundane things that you have always done? Is it always the same position? Do you always initiate it the same way? Are you adventurous in bed? Has the adventure gotten lost over the years?
Do you have sex on your mind all the time? The consensus is that the thought of sex passes across a man's mind every 7 to 14 seconds. If this is the case, are you making sexual innuendos? Do you make comments about sex all the time? Do you stroke the front of your pants and ask, "You want a little of this?" Are you groping inappropriately? Do you grab her boobs or butt in public? When in the beginnings of a relationship this may have seemed fun, but after a while this does get old.
Can you cuddle without 'humping' her leg? Are you capable of just laying there for hours on end without the end result being sex? And if you can, are you disappointed because there was no sex? Does she know this?
Do you have children? Is the burden of raising them left on her shoulders? Do you disagree on discipline or punishment? Are your views of housekeeping the same? Do you complain the house is a mess then sit in front of the TV? Complain that there is no clean clothes, yet fail to wash and dry a load of laundry? Does she have a job outside the home? The day to day things that happen in the life of a woman can put a serious drag on her sexual side.
Has she changed physically? Is her butt bigger? Her boobs hang lower? Does she have wrinkles? How about those stretch marks? When you were younger, did this bother you? Did you comment negatively on someone else? Do you continue to do so? Have you changed in your views? If yes, does she know this? Do you complain about her physical attributes? No woman wants to be told her butt is too big, then be told to bend over so you can have your way with her. She has to feel good about herself if you want her to share herself with you.
Is it possible she is having an affair? If so, she has possibly fallen in love with her lover. You will have to do some serious back peddling to get her to fall in love with you again, if that is your wish, or if it is even possible at all.
What You Can Do
If you are no longer having sex or having limited sex with your partner, it doesn't mean this is the end. It could be the beginning of a wonderful relationship. Sit down and talk to her. Take it completely away from the bedroom while doing this. Go to a park, drive, get away from the house if at all possible. And more than anything listen to her. Listen to what she is not saying as well, her body language will speak volumes. Do not assume that this talk will result in having sex.
Remember she has probably spent years listening to you and giving you what you want, now it's time for you to reciprocate. If she tells you she wants romance, find a way to give it to her. If she tells you she wants you to kiss her like you mean it, do so. If she tells you she wants more playfulness in bed, that is easy to do. Women are like the ever changing tide, what pleased us years ago, is probably not going to please us now.
Think back to the days when you first fell in love, getting back to that point is not going to be easy, but think of the fun you can have while doing so!
Authors Note
Please keep in mind that I am not a professional counselor, these are my thoughts and ideas that I have garnered from speaking with others regarding this subject. Reading an article is no substitute for seeking professional help.
Very well said!!! Also when raising small children and chasing them around from 8 in the morning to 10 at night women are just exhausted. Sometimes it not just the fact of being uninterested, it is the fact of being too tired to be interested.
After reading this i feel like 12 again! Thanks for that! On a more serious note, there are some really key points in this hub that will definitely be of use. Great hub Susie!
There could also be physical reasons for her not wanting to engage too, like menopause, and some of its side effects.
Brother Dave.
Sweetsusieg: Menopause can be a big issue. My wife is effected with such painful tenderness in her breasts and lower area, accompanied by dryness and an inability to properly lubricate, that not only can I not toutch her,for fear of pain, but making love is impossible. It maybe only effects 1 in 10,000 women this way but it is a medical fact. I have done without for the past seven years, not for lack of trying anything and everything, but because of the pain she suffers.
Brother Dave.
This explains a lot.
I am not immature. I am exactly where I am supposed to be.
Now I have to get my wife to read this. Then maybe she will stop telling me to GROW UP!!! LOL
LOL Well I may be saying that I enjoy being 12. But at the very least I when I get into trouble I can always have this fall back position. Of course that could mean getting my butt whupped too.
I guess you could get a spray bottle and every time we fella get out of line y'all ladies can squirt us on the snout. It is a great way to train dogs anyway.
Another great hub from you. Very useful for us. I'll bookmark this hub. I haven't married yet. But I'll share this hub to my future with. I'll show to her next time. Thank you very much for share about this.
Sweetsusieg, You make some valid points. I would also add it's possible she may be going through menopause. A lot of women who go through "the change of life" lose their sex drive and in some instances experience discomfort when they do have sex.
Another possibilty is she may be having an affair or (considering one). Women cheat too! It's not nearly written about as much as the men. A lot of women who do cheat have a difficult time sleeping with their husbands while having an affair. This is closely related to your statement:
"With women studies have shown that sex is 90% mental and 10% physical. This means we have to (actually like the person we want to have sex with") If she's just not that into her husband it's not going to happen. She has moved on "emotionally".
"Bait & Switch" is another possibility.
I'm sure you've heard the old joke, "How do you paralyze a woman from the waist down? Marry her!" A lot of men will tell you while they were dating their wives "She did everything" and after there was an emotional commitment she slowly stopped doing things.
A woman recently posted a comment on another hub stating "Marriage is easier than dating because you don't have to worry about how (you act) nor do you have to concern yourself with (impressing) someone." hmmmm
I find it very interesting that people place more value on making a "new person" happy than a person who has committed to them. They take them for granted believeing they aren't going anywhere.
Lastly the "anger" issue or what I'd call punish/reward game some women play with regard to sex. Some women have been taught to use sex as a way to control a relationship. The mature thing to do is if you're upset with someone then communicate and get it out in the open.
Withholding sex makes it very easy for a lot of men and women to justify cheating. A marriage without sex is the same as being roommates with the same last name.
It's never smart to play games with intimacy.
Having a monogamus relationship means a man and woman have agreed to only have sex with one another. This assumes both people will be there for each other's needs.
If one person no longer wants to have sex with the other then maybe they are better off getting divorced and being friends.
"It's easier to maintain a fire than it is to reignite a spark!"
its as if you knew what i am going thru.
There could be many issues at play in this situation. Communication is the best solution. If you can talk about the issue at hand openly then it can be resolved much more effectively.
great article sweetsusieg, as you know my favorite topic to write about as well! you hit the nail on the head women are about the mind, that is why if a husband can give his wife some good mind sex through out the day she will be wanting him, and isnt that a husbands dream...lol
Awesome article. I want to put a link to it on one of my hubs I recently wrote. I got really good comments, but some ridiculing me for making it seem the guy should do all the work and the woman knows best. "A Man's Guide to Sex After Marriage" is the name. I have gone through this in my marriage and mostly because of having a baby without extra help.
I enjoyed your hub emmensely.I laughed,and learned a lot.So many things you say are true.I guess I am reading this article as like preventive medicine.I have only been married 9 years and it seems like yesterday we tied the knott.I have experienced nothing but wonderful love.I did realize I was like a 12 year old kid with his hand in the candy jar.After one piece I always wanted more.I felt like I couldn't get her off my mind.So I had to tell myself I am married forever what's the rush.That slowed me down a little and made love even greater.Thank you for such a useful hub.I hope I never have to use it.But I do understand if my wife is upset or stressed about bills,work or something she is not in the mood.Where I can totally keep it separate and one thing has nothing to do with the other.There I go again thinking like a 12 year old.Thank you for finding me.
Excellent hub. I really appreciate your hub.Husband wife relations like a glass.I know that what do women wants? They wants happy,love, romance and his husband can complete her expectation and wish.
Nicely put into words. :) I am going to force my husband to read it now. LOL
I think that sex is more than 90% phsyical, because a person has to be attracted to you to become sexually interated with you. I took a phsychology course that explained a lot of things about why sometimes do not have interest in sex. Some of the answers can be medicine that they are taking, or even some midlife crisis they might be going through. Being extremely busy is the number one reason why women do not have sex, because they are so tired by the end of the day.
medical issues has stoped me from having sex at times. my ex hubby couldn't understand it at all it made me like him less.
I once dated a woman who wanted nothing to do with sex.I talked about every reason why and tried to find answers.With her only response I don't feel the need.I have so many other things I rather do.Well that relationship ended after a long, long friendship.Every other aspect of the relationship was fine.She loved me but no sex.Have you ever heard of people who just don't want to make love at all in their lives?I moved on and later she married and good luck to him.
Maybe your wife is sexually active with someone else! lol
Okay. I admit. You have me pretty much dead to rites. 12 years old is probably pretty close to the truth of it. And, pretty much a relationship ignoramus, too. Still, I've been showing a few signs of maturity lately, like I haven't bought MaddenNFL 2011 yet.lol. All joking aside this is a very insightful hub.
Although I do agree with your post, I have my own reservations.
This is a very good article. In the beginning it is like you say, then it will fall off and in the end, it will increase. You have to remember that life takes hold of everyones life. Not that we are put on the back burner but, we do have alot of things going on. We also, have to remember that sex is the icing on the cake, not the cake. Try to keep things fresh and different.
Absolutely agree with the hub. Although it's a pitty many men don't realise such obvious things...
"With women studies have shown that sex is 90% mental and 10% physical"
Totally agree with you there hun and its a pity a lot of men dont realise that women enjoy mental sex a lot more than physical sex especially when they get older..
I cant stand men who constantly want to hump you or turn everything into a sexual innuendo. Great hub hun. Enjoyed reading it.
Great hub, I liked it.
this hub is really great, :)
Excellent hub. Great work done.
A woman does need to feel good about herself. If she doesn't feel sexy and desirable, it is hard to get "in the mood". Also, keep in mind that as women age, their hormone levels change, which also affects their sex drive. You say the physical only accounts for 10%, but it is a 10% that the woman herself may not have any contro over or even realize is happening, so it can be a biggie. In this situation, men to to try and be understanding and realize that, as you said, it may not have anything to do with them. It is about her, not him.
The last sentence in the hub said it all - think back to the days when you first fell in love. A lot of the romance is lost or faded as time goes by. Many men lose that romantic spontaneity.
Try getting away to a couples retreat for a weekend and bring back the spark.
Great Hub looks like you put a lot of effort in this. I am 32 years old & married for 3 years maybe I am to lazy or I believe the ever changing tide of a womans emotions you refer to is one big headache.
great topic, great insight.. one thing or group of things you forgot to mention... housework! If you have kids and are both working... is SHE the one doing all the housework?
Raising a family is a job in and OF itself and to go to a job, then come home and take care of kids and do dishes, and cook, and do MORE dishes, and laundry... and plan for the next day's meals and activities... and he wants to do what?
Great hub, excellent tips ,should help many men with an open mind, or desperate, either way useful!
There are other things that might have caused women's sex drive to suddenly disappear: Stress, menopause, suspicions of infidelity. But if something triggered a lack of trust for any reason three years ago, that might certainly lead to anger and an end of intimacy.
Nice hub. When I see the headline I never thought you will write this much deep. Well a lot of points to think and correct. Thanks
It's funny you wrote a hub realting to a lot of us today... I have guys that ask me that all the time. I usually tell them that guys aren't the only ones that need something to turn them on, woman usually need to be turned on to and it's usually mentally. Something their not doing to spark a woman's interest. Thanks for sharing such great hub!
Sexually active" is a confusing term to determine, yes. I have a quick solution; when you are sexually active you are opening up your body to various disease, viruses, and bacteria.
Hah so that explains it. Very informative hub. Thanks.
Thank you but I have strong Catholic beliefs now against sex !
I thinks sex is the key of relationship quality after married. Good job Sweet, thanks for sharing.
Great hub, by the time I get home, help with homework, get a load of laundry on and start dinner, I'm too exhausted to even think about sex, boy am I tired lol
I agree with you Susie. I think that sexual relationship with a partner fades as years go by. This is probably so because husband and wives are more focused on their careers or busy attending to their kids. When at home, tired and exhausted. For me, it is best that husbands and wives should have a week off for them to bond again.
Gr8 work Sweetsusieg.one spelling error.plz improve this in ur next hubs.thanks for this hub
Friend very nice hub.Great work done
Nice hub and great work!
Thank you!
Best regards!
Interesting that in answer to the subject "Why women lose interest in sex, most of the comments place the blame on the man. ten years ago, my wife told me that sex no longer intested her. hours of talks and counselling later, (she refused to see an obgyn,)she severely restricted access to the playpen. BUT, she just gave me herpes. hmm. what part of this is my fault?
If your wife isn't sexually active it could be because she's married to you. Great hub! Nice work!
A lot of the romance is lost or faded as time goes by, it's true. Many men and women lose their romantic spontaneity. it seems to dull with age or something. That's why I think you should get into a good sexy fight and throw some pillows at each other until you re-ignite that romantic lust... I mean it should work.
Nice one from you,i've learned alot from it and i will definitely pass it to someone else.
well to me after reading this,it looks like little ms.Sweetusieg is suffering from know it all diesase.
Some good points in here and some unusual ones. 12? You have some research to back this up? My understanding was that it was more like 18-21.
Very Informative hubs. Like ur Hub very much.
Make sure your wife didn't have any affair. if it does, then you have to find out why it's happening, why she choose to do so. After you learn everything about your mistake then find a new girlfriend. Make sure you don't do the mistake twice. O.o... happy boy and happy girl. Both happy now.
very informative...understand each other and having the time for each other pays !
I believe we all marriage couples need to explore new things. Husband .. Does your wife has male friends over the messengers or social networks. Does he makes you feel bad.
I let my wife to have friends and boyfriends on messengers. This has help us to revive the sparks and we enjoy having sex again.
Cyber sex has not to be bad.
talk with your wife, ask her about her fantasies, try to make them come true. Let you wife feel like a teenager again.
Wel, I got to go but this is my email if you or anybody want to keep talking about this great theme.
Best Regards
Hmmm, I think you should do one on why a guy stops having sex with his partner to follow this one.
OK, I'll take the bait--affair? cheating? I just bought a book on the subject and frankly, that is the OBVIOUS assumption, however, according to the two doctors who wrote the book, NOT the usual reason.
Absolutely right, u r absolutely right.
I'm trying to figure out what she could be angry about. I often think this is it. And she stubbornly will not talk about the lack of sexual intimacy between us. She turns her back on it--literally. I've tried to initiate converstations to open up the topic and atmosphere by getting her to agree to use a book to focus our discussion--but she won't pull the book out from the bottom drawer. So. Now what?
A wife who does not achieve orgasm would knowingly or unknowingly begin to loose interest in marital sex; this continued loss of interest would ultimately but gradually lead to this dreaded state of inadequate intimacy. Therefore,the single most effective way of remedying lack of intimacy in a marital union is by working towards adequate sexual satisfaction for both parties during each sexually encounter. In most cases, the responsibility of realizing this would often lie on the husband, he has to fine tune his sexual act so as to ensure that his wife achieves orgasms each and every time they are engaged in the sexual act or better still, each and every time that he intends to ejaculate.
It is important to note that every sexually active woman is capable of not just one but multiple supremely explosive orgasms when ever she is sexually stimulated, therefore, there should be no reason why your wife's case should be different. There are a few other steps which would help you to work on your wife but just know that it can and will happen if you would just take a little time out and understand how the female orgasm works.
This is really scary. I can't imagine myself losing sexual interest with my husband. LOL
I think it is always important that you always make sure that you observe the action of your wife about this. Try to do some exciting things that can spicy up your activity as wife and husband. If someone is reading my comment, i suggest you ask yourself about the questions of Sweetsusieg. I am sure you will fine the answer.
Nice post. Good to read.
Well done! Very interesting
Is there a man who can accept marriage (his wife) without sex (it stops and never starts again)? Wondering if he exists. Wish mine would stop offering to leave and find another mate cause i wont comply :(
Dashingscorpio has it right, and I beleive its more of a people thing than a woman is smart and a man is 12 years old. Not every person man or woman has Emotional intelligence. There are lot of woman who cannot relate or act in a childish manner as well. In every book I have read on this subject it will tell you that this problem can go both ways.
Hello Sweets; I gave you an Awesome vote, on your hub because I was very impressed with so many opened ideas, and opinions. Thanks for sharing it. Deb
Just read our hub and it is very informative. Do want to share something that a friend of mine experienced.
She suffered a trauma while giving birth and almost died and since then making love was a bit painful for her, according to her it was remembering all the pain she experienced that was making her tensed when she and her hubby were making love. The doctor explained to both of them that it was but natural and it could take some time. Her hubby couldn't understand and felt she didn't lover him anymore. They separated but after several years she did get over the fear but too late.
Had her hubby been patient enough to understand her fears then it could have turned out better for them. Your right when you say it is important to have open communication the same way that maturity plays a crucial role in relationship. I mean one can open up but then would the other understand?
Great Hub Sweetsusieg, I love the line "are you making sexual innuendos? Do you make comments about sex all the time?". Afraid I have been trying to point this out to the Hubby for the last 2 years or so. It is so NOT a turn on!
Can't remember now, but did you read my Hub on "how often do you and your partner have sex.....honestly?". There are some polls on it that have some very interesting results if you fancy a read.... or just a vote.
Your article is very insightful. I am a woman and I'm not as interested in the sexual side of my relationship as I was in the beginning. Your article made me realize some things about myself. Very good!
Yep, I laugh too, but it certainly isn't seductive, and only makes any resulting sex an exercise to humour him!
I think the comments are just as informative as the hub! thank you. all of you! :)
Thank you this is a great hub I enjoyed
I would say that more important than anything a woman needs to feel safe, relaxed, and trusting before she will truly open up sexually. Men on the other hand get excited by a few scantly clad images!
yes the comments are awesome, you need your wife to engage in some extra foreplay and dressing up always help
I am glad to know that my husband isn't the only one out there that acts 12!
I never seen before post like that, i'm fully agree with you, thanks for nice post
A wonderful and a great fascinating article you really have in here which i so much enjoyed and learnt a lot from just like the other articles of yours i have come in contact with. Nice hub, cheers.
It`s quite educative to read your articles.More ink to your pen.
You could not be more right in this hub! I really enjoyed reading this! All men should read it! :)
I read your hub and the comments that followed. I share in your opinion and insight as to the things that makes us (men) unable to see past our own mistakes. I love my wife and I went through each of your points. I have managed to grow and learn from listening to her, but I realize after 12 years that there's something else that is not revealed. My wife and I talk, share, work together on the kids, the home, the finances and our goals. We are each other's best friends, we enjoyso much of the same stuff and still allow each other some individual space. She is the mother of our 5 children and she is a hard working stay-at-home mom. She is amazing and wonderful in every way. Yet, she has not sex drive. I have listened and adapted all of the necessary changes so she will feel safe and secure. Comfortable and loved. Not in a sexual way, but in an emotional way. In an intellectual way. I try to make love to her without ever looking to actually have sexual intercouse. I get involved in the things she loves and the talk about what she likes. I don't just hel around the house, I am an active partner in the house duties. I don't watch sports, I don't play golf and I don't have habits that detract me from the joy of being with my wife and kids. We cook together, we fold clothers (sometimes together and sometimes on our own), we both nurture our children and give them lots of love and affection. Yet, she is not affectionate with me.
I have asked her to let me know if she is just not attracted or if it is something physical. She confirms that she is very attracted to me. She thinks about me in a sexual way (no the way I do) when I am not home or at times when it is not feasible. I told her that it would be ok to share with me if she is not attracted to me. I know she is because she does seem to feel confused about why she is not sexually interested.
We talk about this in depth and we are both out of reasons. She truly wants to feel more pleasure but it is not that she can't "feel me" or she is not stimulated. She just does not think of sex as a way to express or show love.
It is bad that I say this, but I am an attractive (military man) who is in good health and believe me that with five kids, I stay in shape even when I don't run 10 miles a week.
We go on weekly dates, we nurture our relationship in every other way. I support her time off every week. In fact, she goes on a weekly trip once a year and I stay at home with the kids. I make sure she does not feel guilty about buying herself new clothes or anything she loves. I compliment her on her body and despite her own self-criticism, I tell her why I think her stretch marks are a part of the beuty she she encompasses. By the way, she is a gorgeous woman wiuth a terrific body, but she focuses on the details and the inperfections. She works out at home (when she cans) and I encourage her. I take time and effort to not just say you look great in that green shirt, but I tell her that the color highlights her beautiful eyes and the way the shirts is tailored around her chest makes her look desirable but classy. I comment on how the size (Small or xsmall) is perfect for her frame because is hugs her figure and it shows the definition on her shoulders. I go in to detail when she gets a hair cut on how it may lay in layers along her porfile and how it thins her face accentuating her facial fatures.
I know she loves me and tells me how wonderful I am but when it comes to be desired by her (sexually) it just does not happen.
I am not without my faults. I don't compare myself to other men or compare her to other women, but when do you stop trying and tell yourself this is not going to work.
As a man, I don't just want to have sex, though it does satisfy the animal in me, I want to feel loved and wanted. I want her to look at me with the same desire I tell myself to have for her. I could simply stop telling myself (mentally) to just settle and let it be, but I know she enjoys feeling wanted and feeling like a pricess. Don't you thin we also feel like feeling like kings? When is it fair to expect that our spouses put the same effort that we put to make sure they feel special. I know most of us don't think this way or apply the principles you mentioned above, but I do. I have done everything and I am all ears to anyone out there who would like to tell me to do more. I will do more a thousand time over. I can assure you I have tried everything.
So, though I am grateful for your insight and for sharing your perspective into women, I find that I have worked and tried everything. I am still willing to continue to try.
How do I get my wife to learn to enjoy sex and let me provide her with more and more pleasure. How do you fight against a mental block like that though she agrees she does not know how to change....
I have suggested that perhaps we should seek professional help but she argues that this is common in women and most women do not like sex. She is very much against conventional medicine and will not consider anything that is not homeopathic. I have to support her and cannot push her to do anything she is not interested in exploring.
If you know of any good professionals in the DC or Northern Virgina Area, I will gladly give them a call and pursue this option.
I can't imagine us apart after working so hard for 12 years and finding so much happiness and joy in every other aspect of our marriage.
Great hub. I am sure it will/has been of use to many people.
Great hub!good tips for men for longer relationship.
what a load of crap this is Ive done everything for her & still nothing,laundry,making dinner ,kids a bath,kids to bed ,bubble baths,notes around the house &car,tryed everything &this just sounds like a man bash blog !!!
You have, obviously never been in the situation. She just does not want sex. Dol I look somewhere else and keep the marriage going. It's been 10 years now.
this is such a sexist article. how do You expect me to want to read the rest after the first couple paragraphs?
Hmmm ....
I have a decline in sexual activity because my husband isn't too into new things. I believe that every time man and wife have sex, it should be like opening up presents on Christmas. You never want to receive the same gift twice. He and I have talked about it but he takes it as if I am saying the sex is bad, Its just I know everything he is about to do. I get tired of Trying to be teach him what I need. Help me.
Nice Hub! I agree on so many points. I think also couples forget to "flirt" and "tease" one another. Sex becomes a schedule that gets checked off right alongside groceries and taking out the trash. I think if couples introduce more spontaneity and provide each other with flirtations like they did when they first met, the sex ususally gets better. Women like the game and enjoy being chased and/or chasing. If marriage becomes fun and full of playfulness, sex should be too!
I am 23 and he is 25. He has been sexually active since he was 14, I was 18. He tells me stories about past sexual experiences and it seems he was having fun then. Some nights I just roll over and cry myself to sleep because he treats sex like a job and not a pleasure. I have cousins that are exotic dancers and they have taught me things. He never pays it attention. We need something to pop like popcorn soon. We even visited the sex shop last weekend and I told him what I wanted. He took it wrong again.
What my husband doesn't understand is that women past the age of 45 go through menopause and don't feel sexually active. Sometimes we just want a kiss and cuddle in bed but unfortunately my husband thinks I want something else. If I don't give him what he wants he gets angry and says that I'm sleeping around or I had enough sex before our marriage that I'm tired now. (we've been married for 19 years now by the way).

Morning Cattle Market Report
April cattle closed lower yesterday and fell to the lowest price levels since February 13th. The cattle market is in a 4-day losing streak that has seen prices fall more than $3.20 from last week's high of $131.50. Weakness in energy markets, a selloff in the US dollar and talk that Australia is expected to boost their beef imports well above year ago levels were seen as positive factors for the cattle market. Some traders feel it possible that the recent weakness in April cattle futures might have been worse if it weren't for a more than 2.0% drop in gasoline prices yesterday. While beef prices are on the rise, traders see slower volume of trade on the beef rally as another reason to fear a potential backlog of supply and a slowdown in the beef pipeline. There was some light trade in the cash market yesterday in Texas at $128.00, which would be down $1.00 for the week. Boxed beef cutout values were up 6 cents at mid-session yesterday and closed 9 cents higher at $198.65. This was up from $194.15 the prior week and is at the highest level since $200.65 on October 20th of 2003. Some traders indicated that choice cutouts could approach the $200 level this week, especially in the wake of last week's decline in slaughter activity.The USDA estimated livestock slaughter at 124,000 head, which was a bit above expectations. This brings the total for the week so far to 246,000 head, up from 230,000 head last week at this time but down from 256,000 head a year ago.

Hey! If you don't follow me on Twitter or Patreon you might have missed some recent developments:
Enjoy Book 9, folks! It's good to be back at the comic proper!
I previously announced NTO had been selected for a StArt Faire Excellence in Writing award along with 4 other most excellent comics.
Today, NTO stands alone as the winner of StArt Faire's Best in Writing award! A huge thanks to the EiW organizers and judges! I feel super honored to have been chosen for this recognition in the EiWAwards' first year!
If you'd like to hear more about all the winners, do check out this podcast, and if you're looking for a new comic to read, I can think of nowhere better to start than with these other incredible webcomics.
The first ever NTO enamel pin!
This impromptu, short-term project is part of Kickstarter's Make 100 initiative, and is therefore limited to 100 pin-level backers! Hurry and get yours, in silver or gold -- people's opinions on one versus the other were so divided I just asked the vendor if I could split a run in terms of electroplating if the die/enamel was the same, and they said yes!
I'll be sending a pin like this to all active US & Canada Patrons who've pledged lifetime totals of $100+. Additionally, if you as a Patron happen to back the Kickstarter, I'll add an original sketch card to your order as an extra thank you.
Next Town Over has won an Excellence in Webcomics Award for Writing! This is a big honor! Thanks so much!
Voting for the People's Choice award is ongoing, though: please do vote for Next Town Over!
... and hey, given the way the election's impacted the dollar so far I may have grossly underestimated how much this is going to cost, so please help me out however you can!
Thank you to everyone who submitted an entry to this first ever NTO Coloring Contest! It wasn't quite as big a hit as the general art contest used to be (and as such next year the old art contest may return), but it was still a lot of fun to receive these entries and they were all hugely inspirational! As with the old art contest, judging this was virtually impossible, so I actually enlisted the help of my sister for a wholly unbiased opinion (I gave her all the entries stripped of names and any artist info to get her objective take on who came out ahead). After considerable deliberation we agreed on a winner, but it was extremely close and it took some doing. These are all great, and I cannot overstate how much it means to me that you all took the time!
All images can be clicked and viewed larger (where possible) and I'd urge you to go ahead and do so and check out these folks' work in better detail. (Incidentally if you'd like to see any of the original uncolored lineart I rounded up all the non-exclusives here.)
Vanetta Graves (Website)
Colored: His Theme
Super cute and delicate coloring of my Undertale inktober drawing! So glad someone colored this one.
Elizabeth Alexander
Colored: PC & PG
My husband really wanted this vibrant (marker?) color job to win. I'm just happy someone colored one of my inktobers featuring characters from the very secret (and very slow-going) game project!
Doug Bailey
Colored: Veronique
I think Veronique would approve of these hot, eye-grabbing colors, ft. a hat in a popping accent color.
Austin Graves-Powell (Website)
Colored: All Saints' Wake Witch (x2!)
I love both of these, and the bloody green variant is incredibly creepy, but the tattooed midnight-colored one is my total favorite. The colors are soooo Halloween. This was definitely a frontrunner.
Karyl Lee (Website)
Colored: Veronique
Karyl's participated in every NTO art contest to date I think, and every time surprises with a mixed media piece. Even this year -- a coloring contest instead of the usual, general art contest -- Karyl's entry is loaded with Veronique-appropriate glitter and beautifully framed with cut ribbons. I love this (look at the almost-iridescent looking train & underskirts!) and, just like every year, I wish I could see it in person!
S. Pwyll (Website)
Colored: Dr. Black's Monster
Longtime supporter of the comic Mr. S. Pwyll seems to have gone to the lengths of printing this Patron-exclusive inktober drawing on cold press watercolor stock to paint it right! I really love the resultant texture and it was super nice to see one of the more Halloweenish NTO drawings get a slick color job. This was another almost-winner for me.
Laura Rose (Website)
Colored: Veronique
As I said, this was a really tough call, but ultimately the attention to detail in Laura's watercolor pushed it over the edge for us. The two-color brocade, the delicate gold piping, the subtle frosting-like shading of all that train & skirting, in Veronique's favored pinks and peaches won me over. Congratulations Laura! I'll be contacting you shortly about your prize!
Thanks to everyone who participated! And now, some b-b-b-bonuses!
First of all, coloring contest winner Laura also sent along this most excellent fanart of a young Vane Black from her own inktober adventures!
Aaaaaand, friend and Poor Wayfaring Strangers collaborator Caroline Johnson (Of Stars and Swords) colored my cute owls inktober most spectacularly:
You guys are the best! My birthday was in October, and I consider all of these super gifts.
Time's almost up on the Inktober coloring contest! Tomorrow's the deadline! I've only got 4 entries so your odds of winning are pretty okay and you'll be featured here regardless! Here's a roundup of all my eligible non-Patron Inktober art (click for full resolution):
Both of these are also eligible for the coloring contest (click for full-res download) as well as this Patron-only offering. Deadline's coming up fast (Monday!) and as of right now I've only got two entries!
Any and all of these are also eligible for the coloring contest (click for full-res download)! Deadline's coming up fast and as of right now I've only got one entry!
Follow me on Twitter for more frequent Inktober updates & more!
I've fallen somewhat behind on Inktober, but one day was a yet-secret ink project, and several have just been plugging away at the racetrack for Toddler Race.
Any and all of these are eligible for the coloring contest! More on the way but some of them will be Patron-exclusive (there have already been a few of these)! Follow me on Twitter for daily Inktober updates & more!

Try This: Handmade Rug
Cut up your old, torn, battered and stained T-shirts to make this rug.
FINISH WEFT: For the weft loops, work from left to right. Start by slipping the first 2 loops off their nails. Push the loop on the right through its neighbor on the left. Hold onto that loop while slipping the next loop off its nail. Now this new loop goes through the one on its left. Continue this pattern across the frame.

Faith already turned 7 months this week. She loves her MushaBelly Mushkin! They both just roll over and fall asleep during nap time. "What a cutie," says her mommy.
To make the box, I got the tutorial from Andrea Walford. Here's the link to her website: http://andreawalford.com/?page_id=85
Now on to stamping...I had a workshop end of March and for the stampers, they made five 3x3 cards with a lidded box. We used the Greetings Galore set, white cardstock, ribbons, and markers to color the images, all from Stampin Up of course.
I also finally created some 6 x 6 pages using the Home Again Simply Scrappin Kit. I followed the scrap maps that were in our SU Demonstrator Website. Super easy and quick and I had a lot of fun working on it.

WHY!? Weird Noise - Rubbing/Vibrating
OK so i got the first round of upgrades on my 2012 JKUR. (6speed)
- 3.5" AEV lift
- AEV Pintler
- 315 Duratrac tires
90% of the time when i start to accelerate I hear a weird rubbing noise coming from under the car. Initially i was told that it was wheel rub because I had stock wheel/tire on a lift. Since then, I've upgraded to the Pintlers and I still hear the noise.
It's starting to drive me crazy! what can it be?
I eventually want to upgrade Driveshaft and Exhaust, but I don't think thats the case at this point in time.
Any thoughts??
Edited because the next two post make much more sense.
Sounds like driveshaft, especially since you mentioned accelerating. I know my 3.5 aev coils provided quite a bit of lift and you'd need a driveshaft sooner than later. You should be able to tell the difference in sound relative to speed. Tire rub would be much slower then a driveshaft at speed. Have you crawled under to check on marks to driveshaft, tires, etc? I wouldn't think wheel weights as there's plenty of clearance with stock 17s from calipers. Unbolting a driveshaft and going for a drive may help with figuring it out.
I agree with drive shaft especially since it did it with the stock wheels and tires. Was the pinion angle checked and corrected after the lift was done?
Not trying to bring up the past but this is also my story to the day! OP what did you end up doing...?
That's ok with me. So many posts with no follow up is a bit annoying.

In my last post people asked me what koozies are and I thought I would explain that a little bit.Have you ever used a koozie? Made of a thick piece of cloth or material that maintains the temperature of a drink. Usually made of neoprene, they help keep cold beer cans cold and hot coffee thermoses and cups warm. They are also sold personalized at Express Imprint , which carries a lot of them. Before the name koozie was used, users referred to this item as a beer huggie or a beer hugger since it is usually used for "hugging" beer cans and beer bottles. But actually this is a misnomer since the name are not just meant for alcoholic beverages. It may also be used for other kinds of beverages like juice bottles, energy drinks, soda cans and even ordinary tumblers and tall glasses.
The name koozie was actually coined as a trademark. The name was actually a trademark of the Radio Cap Corporation or the RCC and was registered in 1980. Since the koozie was introduced there have been several variations of the material, appearance and the styles. Here are some latest variations which were embraced by the general drinking public:
- Latest materials that are used are able to effectively insulate a drink with the use of conduction and through external infrared sources. The latest ones may be able to reduce the rate a beer can warms up under the hot sun by up to 50%. There are specially-made huggies that are meant for beer drinking only; these are available for order online.
- One of the most common uses of a koozie is to easily identify your drink from other people. For example, you are drinking with several of your friends in a party; if all of you had one to place his drink in then there would be no trouble telling which drink is which.
- The most popular use of a koozie is for marketing purposes. Companies place their names and brands on them which they give away to patrons, customers and to new customers. This novelty item is perfect for the holidays, anniversaries, conferences and other company events. And aside from marketing, they may also be used as a memorabilia or a souvenir which are perfect for weddings, birthdays and parties.

Villeneuve said he was 'dumbfounded' by the departure of the man who has been like a surrogate family to him since the death of his father Gilles, but pledged that he would honour his £6million, one-year contract with the Brackley-based team.
Yet his future may well depend on the relationship he is able to develop with Pollock's replacement, former rally personality and Benetton chief executive Dave Richards. There is speculation that the 1997 world champion could move to Renault in exchange for 21-year-old Jenson Button.
Villeneuve, in subdued mood after jetting in from Montreal where he was competing in a ski event with Pollock, said: 'When I heard the news about Craig I was surprised. It came from nowhere. No-one bothered calling me to explain.
'Craig was part of me being here - and staying when there were offers from elsewhere. 'We will have to see how it goes when testing begins in January, but I am contracted for another year and expect to be racing in Melbourne in March.' Richards, who made Subaru a winning team and himself a multi-millionaire, also anticipates Villeneuve remaining at BAR in 2002. He said: 'I understand Jacques' disappointment and I sympathise with that.'
Asked if he would allow an unhappy Villeneuve to leave, Richards said: 'I would take whatever tough decisions are required to make BAR a winning team.'Reuse content

[This morning I teach the men of our church about three horizons in biblical interpretation. Here are the notes. What follows is a portion of content.]
Three Horizons in Biblical Interpretation
In Preaching and Biblical Theology, Edmund Clowney identified three horizons that the faithful interpreter must engage three horizons to rightly understand biblical truth. These three horizons relate to the biblical text, the biblical covenants (or epochs), and the biblical Christ (i.e., the canonical testimony about God in Christ).
Expounding on these three horizons, Richard Lints has written in his illuminating book, The Fabric of Theology,
The biblical text has three interpretive horizons: the immediate context of the book (or passage), the context of the period of revelation in which the book (or passage) falls, and the context of the entirety of revelation.
It is signally important that we take each horizon seriously if we want to understand the biblical material properly. While no horizon takes precedence over the others, each must nonetheless be regulated by the other two. The meaning of any given passage will depend to a great extent on its place in its own particular epoch and its place in the entirety of redemptive revelation. The theological interpreter of Scripture must allow the three horizons to dialogue with one another continually, helping to explain and clarify the meaning of the others.
It is when we keep all three horizons in dialogue that Scripture begins to inform us about what questions it considers important and the framework necessary to find answers to those questions.[1]
In other words, only by attending to the three horizons can we understand how to read Scripture on its own terms. Likewise, because our goal is to know God, not just Moses or Matthew, it is imperative we read theo-logically, i.e., seeking to know the word (Logos) of God (Theos).
Knowing God is our goal and it requires careful attention to grammar, history, and the covenantal canon. Only as we learn how to read these three horizons together will we be able see how the leaves and the trees (words and sentences) begin to form a well-ordered forest (the whole biblical canon), a forest that has come to us through many seasons of growth, decay, and rebirth (i.e., the progression of covenant that have led to Christ).
In the next three sessions, we will spend time on each horizon. But let me give some biblical bases for each of them. Continue reading

Located on the east coast of England, facing Europe across the North Sea, Norfolk is one of the UK's most rural counties, with over forty percent of its population living in just four towns – Norwich, Great Yarmouth, King's Lynn and Thetford. Adjacent to The Wash, in whose mud the medieval King John famously lost the Crown Jewels in 1216, Norfolk's geography is that of low plains or "fens", which makes it along with neighbouring Suffolk feel more like northern countries of European mainland (Belgium and Holland) than the rest of England which is predominantly hilly.
In a similar way to that of the "low countries", erosion and land reclamation have changed the coastline over the centuries, so that several towns (King's Lynn, for instance) which were once on the coast are now to be found several miles inland! The whole set-up makes for some very interesting topography as well as history and Norfolk is, for this reason, an interesting county to visit, almost as if it was a different country altogether!
This region includes the ceremonial counties of Norfolk and Suffolk, Hertfordshire, Essex, Bedfordshire and Cambridgeshire. With a rich heritage there is much to see and do to suit all ages. The royal residency of Sandringham Estate is a must see and other historical points of interest include Castle Rising, Sutton Hoo and Somerleyton Hall. The medieval cities of Cambridge, Norwich and Ipswich are not to be missed and there are lots of pretty market towns and idyllic seaside resorts to choose from for a day trip. Alternatively for a slower paced holiday you may wish to visit The Broads or Thetford Forest, these areas are particularly popular for boating and spotting birdlife.

Mission 02 - Rally Point Alpha
Walkthrough - Mission 02 - Rally Point Alpha
EditRally Point Alpha // Rebels Don't Leave Plasma Burns
Do not enter the vehicle for the next portion of the level if you want to land the They've Always Been Faster Achievement. You can make it to the relay outpost on foot, you'll just have to fight off a few Elites and Jackals on the way.
Enter the driver's seat of the truck and WAIT FOR YOUR TEAMMATES to get in the passenger seat and bed of the truck. They will be able to fire at enemies as you pass them. You can also run down any enemies (and Moa birds) you encounter. With enough speed you can kill most enemies in one hit. Use the RIGHT TRIGGER for gas and use the ANALOG STICKS for braking/reversing and turning.
Drive down the road and zip past any enemies you encounter -- your squad mates will take care of them and you'll be out of range before they can fire back. Your ultimate goal is a circle of buildings just past the bridge over the river.
This circle of buildings is infested with Covenant forces. Here you must apply a technique which you will use often in the coming levels: Find some safe spot just outside the enemy's firing range and drive near the enemies to let your teammates fire at them, then drive away to recover your shields. If you have enough room you can just drive in a figure-8 pattern to avoid fire. Don't get too close though, since the Grunts and Elites might stick a Plasma Grenade to your ride.
After clearing out the Covenant forces -- try to use grenades on the Elites if they take cover in the buildings -- return to your vehicle, wait for your squad mates and drive down the hill to the north.
You should see another group of Moa on the way down the path, so run them over if you still lack the requisite amount for the Achievement. Pass any enemies you encounter. At the bottom of the hill your peers will exit the vehicle as a Dropship lands nearby.
Take cover behind the cement structure and examine the spot on the ground marked "Ordinance." Pick up the M392 DMR Designated Marksman Rifle here and keep your Plasma Pistol hand if it still has a charge. The DMR is sure to become your best friend in the campaign. It's extremely powerful, has a useful zoom and is always a perfect primary weapon for fighting common Covenant forces like Elites, Jackals, grunts and Buggers.
From cover behind the stone walls in the west you'll have the high ground in this fight. Your first order of business is to take out all the Grunts. Pick them off with your DMR and duck back behind cover when your shield takes a pounding.
The DMR is the scoped Designated Marksman Rifle that's common in the Campaign. Get 10 kills with it to get this Achievement. Easy!
After a wave of Grunts, another wave of Grunts and Elites shows up. Grab a Plasma Pistol and keep your DMR handy to take out the Elites. First, make sure ALL the Grunts are eliminated. Now, charge a Plasma Pistol shot and unleash it on a nearby Elite to drop its shields. Your team may pick it off, but fire a few DMR shots for good measure. Use this method to eliminate all three Elites.
After the area is cleared of Covenant, get on the transport that lands nearby and you'll be transported to a new area.
Immediately after disembarking the vehicle, toss a grenade into the clump of shielded Jackals below you. The Jackals with shields block nearly all fire if you try to shoot them from the front. However, you can target the small gap in their shield where their hand or claw or whatever grips the shield. Shoot this and they'll reel back, allowing you to shoot their head or chest quickly for a kill. You can also shoot them from the side or from behind to avoid the shield.

Mel Gibson's new love interest – Stella Mouzi?
The actor is reportedly spending time in L.A. with Stella Mouzi
Mel Gibson's new flame is a model of Greek origin, Stella Mouzi.
The 55 year-old actor, recently seen in Jodie Foster's movie "Beaver," spends much time with Stella, who has recently walked the red carpet at the 2011 Fetish Film Awards Festival in Los Angeles.
The new couple was photographed earlier this month leaving a restaurant and a few days ago at the Sky Bar on Sunset Strip (the heart of the nightlife in LA). The girl was also seen at Gibson's Malibu home for a BBQ.
Stella is in the States on a tourist visa, but could extend her stay.
This could be a good start for Mel after the stormy relationship with Russian musician Oksana Grigorieva, with whom he has been in legal fight over the custody of their daughter Lucia.

Hurtt made a big impression on Rogers, who told InsideTheVille.com Wednesday that Louisville has moved to the top of his list of favorites.
"Louisville is definitely at the top," Rogers said. "I'm considering Cincinnati and UCF, but Louisville is my leader. [Louisville] is giving me the most contact and they're interested in me the most. Coach Hurtt coming to see me in my house showed me they're pretty serious about me."
"He told me a couple things that opened my eyes even more [about Louisville]," Rogers said. "He talked about having Michaelee Harris and Corvin Lamb there already and how it was like home and he said with me and possibly Teddy [Bridgewater] we could take over the Big East."
"I'm very interested in Louisville," added Rogers.
Harris and Lamb, who both signed with Louisville last year, were high school teammates of Rogers and Bridgewater. Harris sat out this season with a knee injury, while Lamb is expected to re-enroll at UofL this spring after failing to qualify academically. Rogers spoke with Bridgewater about his meeting with Hurtt and said the 6-foot-3 quarterback is seriously considering Louisville.
"He's interested, too, they're [Lousiville] one of his top schools," said Rogers.
While Rogers and Bridgewater didn't schedule a visit to Louisville while Hurtt was in town, the duo might visit UofL next week.
"I have a visit set up to Cincinnati next week but we'll see how things go," Rogers said.
Rogers said both he and his family favor him leaving the state to attend college.
"They think it would be best for me because of my background, they think it would be best to get away," said Rogers. "I'm 100 percent behind that because I want to get our of Miami. I don't want to stay here for college."
Rogers is rated one of the Top 70 wide receiver prospects nationally. Bridgewater, who is verbally committed to Miami, is the third-rated quarterback prospect nationally.

Knicks hold on to beat Celtics 88-80 and advance
By JIMMY GOLEN
Associated Press
BOSTON — Twelve years without advancing in the playoffs. Two failed attempts to close out the Boston Celtics. Nineteen consecutive missed 3-pointers.
Carmelo Anthony brought all the slumps to a stop.
Anthony made a pullup jumper and then sank his first 3-pointer in 20 tries to help the New York Knicks turn back Boston's comeback attempt on Friday night, beating the Celtics 88-80 in Game 6 to win a playoff series for the first time since 2000.
"You should never play with any doubt out there on the basketball court," Anthony said. "I can't step onto the court thinking of failure. When you start second-guessing everything, when you start playing with doubt … I can't afford to play under those circumstances."
Anthony scored 21 points and the Knicks held on after blowing most of a 26-point lead to advance to the Eastern Conference semifinals against the Indiana Pacers.
Game 1 is Sunday in New York.
Iman Shumpert scored 15 of his 17 points in the second half, when the Celtics scored 20 straight points and cut a 75-49 deficit to four points. But Anthony made a 13-footer to give New York an 81-75 lead and followed with a 3-pointer — his first since Game 3.
J.R. Smith converted a three-point play to restore the double-digit lead the Knicks had nursed most of the game.
"There's definitely a moment in that run that I was thinking, 'What are we doing, fellas?'" said Knicks center Tyson Chandler, who had nine points and 12 rebounds.
"It's such a great learning experience when you get a win. It's tough when you get a loss. We've got to grow from it. I'm glad it happened. I'm glad it happened in the first round."
Jeff Green scored 21 points for the Celtics, who had rallied from a 3-0 deficit in the series and had a chance, at home, to force a decisive seventh game.
No NBA team has advanced in the playoffs after losing the first three games.
Paul Pierce scored 14 points on 4-for-18 shooting, making one of nine 3-point attempts. Anthony also struggled from in- and outside the arc, going 7 for 23 from the floor and missing his first four 3-point attempts — that was 19 in a row in the series — before sinking the key basket with 1:43 to go.
"For him to miss all the 3s that he missed — he hit the biggest one of the series and that's what counts," Knicks coach Mike Woodson said. "That's what I look at. When there are close games, I like to see who's going to step up and make plays, and he made the biggest play of the night."
The Knicks had not won a playoff series since Patrick Ewing and Latrell Sprewell (and current backup center Marcus Camby) helped them reach the 2000 Eastern Conference finals.
"It's a major step for this organization, for our fans in New York who've been with us for many, many years," Woodson said. "I'm looking at the big picture and I'm only in this for one thing and that's to try to win an NBA title. We made a major step today, but we've got a long way to go."
Kevin Garnett had 15 points and 10 rebounds for the Celtics, who now face another offseason of talk whether to break up the aging core that won the franchise's record 17th NBA title in 2008 and returned to the finals two years later. Reserve Jason Terry scored 14 points — the only points the Celtics got from their bench.
Rivers said he hasn't thought about his future, or the future of his aging stars, calling Garnett "as tough a competitor as I've ever been around" and Pierce "one of the greatest Celtics to ever play."
"He's done so much for this franchise," Rivers said. "We live in a day and time where guys change teams like socks. Paul has chosen to stay here throughout his career when he could have by all rights chosen to leave.
"He wanted to get it done here. I hope he's remembered for that. I hope he comes back."
A win on Friday would have made the Celtics the fourth NBA team to tie a series after losing the first three games. And it would have given them a chance to be the first in league history to win a series after trailing 3-0.
The Celtics called upon local history to rally them, playing highlights on the scoreboard from the Red Sox comeback against the New York Yankees after a 3-0 deficit in the 2004 AL championship series.
But Boston quickly fell behind 21-5 and trailed by double digits most of the way. The Knicks made it 75-49 with just under 10 minutes left before the Celtics scored the next 20 points, holding New York scoreless for 4:43 before Pierce threw the ball away and Shumpert took it in for an easy layup that made it 77-69 with 5 minutes left.
Avery Bradley made a layup, then Green hit a pair of free throws to make it a four-point game. It was 79-75 when Anthony made a 13-footer and then followed Pierce's missed 3-pointer with a 3 from the top of the key. He then stripped Pierce going to the basket, and Smith converted a three-point play at the other end — Green fouled out on the play — to make it 87-75.

Atlanta Falcons (11-1) at Carolina Panthers (3-9) I really like using trends to pick NFL games. Not all games have the same weight on a team's schedule and games don't always mean the same thing for the teams playing it. This is why upsets happen. However, there aren't any really good ones in play here, except this. Teams are 49-37 ATS as home favorites after a loss as road favorites since 1989, including 14-8 ATS as divisional home dogs when the previous game was non-divisional. That applies to the Panthers, who have gone from road favorites to home dogs in just one week because of one loss, which really didn't have much to do with them, as the Chiefs were galvanized by the Jovan Belcher situation. However, that really assumes the Panthers don't deserve to be home dogs here, which they do. In fact, we may be getting line value with the Falcons, who are rested. Teams are 118-100 ATS on a Sunday following a Thursday game. The Falcons rank 4th in net points per drive at 0.64, while th...

State Finds Contaminates In Los Alamos WellJan 11, 2003 | AP
Contaminants have been found in a monitoring well at Los Alamos National Laboratory, according to the state Environment Department.
The well is located in Mortandad Canyon, about 1½ miles from Los Alamos and a half-mile from the nearest municipal drinking well.
The Environment Department, in a statement issued Friday, said the sample was taken 500 feet below the surface and about 300 feet above the regional aquifer from which Los Alamos draws its drinking water.
Department officials identified the contaminants as tritium, nitrate and perchlorate.
The contaminants have been previously detected in the regional aquifer at levels below drinking water standards mandated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
According to the Environment Department, the level of nitrate found in the well when the sample was taken in June was 20 percent above the EPA standard.
The tritium was slightly below the minimum, but the perchlorate was found at a level many times the EPA's proposed standard for the chemical, the department said.
According to the department, high levels of nitrates can cause the rare and sometimes fatal blue baby syndrome in infants as well as increase the possibility of diabetes in children.
Perchlorate is an chemical used in rocket fuel and other explosives. Studies have linked the chemical to disorders of the thyroid gland.
Tritium, a radioactive form of hydrogen, is used for a number of processes at the lab. It emits low-energy beta radioactivity so that even a sheet of paper can shield a person from exposure.
