Fort Lee soldiers return home after 6-month deployment
FORT LEE - Several soldiers from the 111th Quartermaster Company returned home to excited and happy relatives Friday afternoon after a six-month deployment to Kuwait and Afghanistan.
"I've been waiting for six months to see my wife," said Spc. Levi Kadugyed, taking a break from greeting his wife with a series of hugs and kisses.
His wife, Spc. Hannah Kadugyed, said that it was good to have him home again and that she was excited from the moment he walked through the doors of the Post Field House on Friday afternoon.
They were just some of the many families happy to be reunited after the soldiers were dismissed at the welcome home ceremony Friday.
Lt. Col. Austin W. Elliot, commander of the 530th Combat Sustainment Support Battalion, said that it was a perfect day to welcome back the soldiers. He said that during their deployment, they performed the critical task of handling the remains of fallen soldiers.
As part of the 530th Combat Sustainment Support Battalion, the 111th Quartermaster Company is one of the Army's only two active duty mortuary affairs units, which are both based at Fort Lee.

The Agency will not ask for the following mandatory data elements for medicinal products by July 2012:
In addition the highly controversial Structured Substance Information (SSI) is now optional. In terms of documents, only the SmPC will be required.
The news has been greeted positively by the industry and software vendors alike, although there is still a lot of information missing and many questions outstanding. The absence of a test system is also causing vendors problems, although those that supported the original EVMPD back in 2005, like Samarind, remain confident that only minor adjustments will be required to their software once it becomes available.
The EMA's data entry tool, on the other hand, is now promised for mid April 2012.
The EMA is now working on updating all its documentations and providing examples, missing controlled vocabularies and Q&As. It also has to revise its training programme and adjust its business processes accordingly. Once all that's done it will then revise its roadmap to progress from July 2012 towards the ISO IDMP standards implementation in 2015.
If you would like help with collating your EVMPD data, or a demonstration of Samarind's regulatory management software with its integrated XEVMPD tool, please contact us today.

Beginning Monday morning, the Maryland Welcome Center on northbound Interstate 95 in Howard County will be closed for paving, the State Highway Administration said.
The northbound rest area lots and the travel plaza will be closed 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., Mondays through Thursdays. The facility will be open overnight.
No work will take place on Memorial Day or May 28 and the rest area will be open those days. The paving will be complete by June 30, weather permitting.
Last week, crews repaved the southbound rest area as part of the $1.2 million renovation project.

Criminalising the Enemy and its Impact on Humanitarian Action
Could a doctor working for a humanitarian organisation be sentenced to life imprisonment in the United States for having offered his "expert advice" to people linked to a "terrorist organisation"? That is what is feared by a number of civil rights' organisations in the US since the Supreme Court declared on 21 June 2010 that the legislation known as the Material Support Statute was constitutional. The Supreme Court ruling recalls the Cold War era when the criminalisation of humanitarian assistance in rebel controlled areas was the norm rather than the exception. Following in the footsteps of the (primarily religious) pro-Biafran organisations in Nigeria, MSF and the "without borders" movement then decided to sidestep government prohibitions by clandestinely crossing the borders. Gaining clandestine access to populations living under the authority of "terrorist" organisations is now much more complicated than it was during the Cold War. Countering the rhetoric that criminalizs humanitarian assistance to the victims located on the "wrong side" of the front line requires new humanitarian policies.
The Colombian internal armed conflict has caused the abandonment of an estimated 5.5 million hectares, roughly 5% of Colombian territory. The Colombian legislature is currently debating a bill that aims at establishing a new land restoration policy vis-à-vis Internally Displaced People (IDP). In a context of ongoing violence, where irreconcilable interests still exist around the use of land, the implementation of the bill will necessarily face an array of hurdles. This paper analyzes how President Juan Manuel Santos' proposal diverges from international legislation on this issue, in particular with regard to the Guiding Principles on Internal Displacement and the United Nations Principles on Housing and Property Restitution. It proposes ways in which the proposed bill could better comply with these norms and seize the occasion to create a legal framework in which the return of IDPs to their land strengthens the peace process and increases the state's presence in areas traditionally under the control of the armed groups.
Neo-Realism and Humanitarian Action: From Cold War to Our Days
Modern humanitarian action is conducted in a rapidly changing geopolitical environment. This brief theoretical piece is an analysis of how humanitarian action can be perceived from a neo-realist point of view. It suggests that apart from being a leading theory of international relations, neo-realism can throw a light on patterns and strategies of international humanitarian action from the Cold War to modern days. Behavior of states on international arena and international aid organizations can be explained from a neo-realist perspective. Regardless of its theoretical slant, the article suggests that neo-realism can be traced in modern politics of humanitarian assistance.
Sphere and sustainability: A matter of time
The Sphere standards have been devised to ensure that people affected by disasters will receive an adequate level of assistance; these standards are used across the world and apply both to natural and complex emergencies. The latter tend to be lasting events that often create a displacement of the population and it is argued that in such situations, where prolonged assistance is required, the Sphere standards may be counterproductive. By using examples of water supply interventions, it is highlighted that in some circumstances the Sphere standards for water quality may only be achieved with systems too complex for the displaced population to operate and maintain on their own. The case of two war-affected areas of Eastern Chad are presented to illustrate the importance of the temporal aspects of the Sphere standards in complex emergencies, and raises important questions regarding the long-term sustainability of adopting such standards for displaced populations.
Haiti's Disaster after the Disaster: The IDP Camps and Cholera
This study analyzes over 100 camps for Haiti's internally displaced persons (IDPs), a random sample of one in eight of the 861 in the Port-au-Prince metropolitan area. Despite the billions in aid pledged to Haiti, most of the estimated 1.5 million IDPs are living in substandard conditions. For example, seven months following the earthquake, 40 percent of IDP camps did not have access to water, and 30 percent did not have toilets of any kind. Only a fifth of camps have education, health care, or psycho-social facilities on site. Services in the camps vary quite significantly according to a range of factors. Camps in Cité Soleil have almost no services, while those in Pétion-Ville are better managed. Smaller camps, with 100 or fewer families, have demonstrably fewer services. Camps situated on private land – 71 percent of the sample – are significantly worse off than those on public land. These conditions were prime breeding ground for the cholera epidemic, which as of the submission of the article claimed more than 1,700 lives. This article ends with recommendations to improve the quality of life within the camps.
Shrinking Humanitarian Space? Trends and Prospects on Security and Access
Shrinking humanitarian space describes the situation where the changing nature of armed conflict and the geopolitical shifts, particularly since 9/11, combine to inhibit the provision of humanitarian assistance. By conflating unproven assumptions about unrelated challenges under this single heading, humanitarian organizations have generated an unnecessarily gloomy outlook on future prospects for their security and access. There is no conclusive evidence that humanitarian space is declining over time; the blurring of boundaries between humanitarianism and other international responses to conflict often does more good than harm; and in seeking to maximize security and access, emphasis should be focused on practical strategies rather than simply on the reassertion of traditional humanitarian principles.
Religious organizations are increasingly visible in development and humanitarian aid, something which has been reflected in the emergence of a new strand of research, focusing on these organizations and their involvement in the provision of development and humanitarian aid. However, most of this literature centers on individual organizations, and there is a lack of systematic information about larger numbers of organizations: What distinguishes them from other organizations? What characterises them as a group? And does it even make sense to consider them as a group?
Juvenile Justice in Transition: Past Challenges and New Opportunities in Post-Conflict Iraq
Juvenile justice is a fundamental component of criminal justice systems and a critical element of successful international development models. The Convention on the Rights of the Child establishes international standards for the treatment of children, including children in contact with law. This mandate is supplemented by juvenile justice provisions in signatory states around the globe. In post-conflict societies, however, juvenile justice efforts must often compete for scarce government resources. In Iraq in particular, the development of the juvenile justice system has encountered systemic challenges as the country has transitioned from continuous conflict and totalitarian rule to democracy and the rule of law. Based in part on the author's first hand experience working with juvenile justice institutions in Baghdad, this article examines the state of Iraqi juvenile justice, past and present, and offers a strategy for the future of juvenile justice administration in Iraq.
New Humanitarianism with Old Problems: The Forgotten Lesson of Rwanda
The present article takes a critical look at the new humanitarian ideal and attempts to outline some of the predicaments the 'new humanitarianism' rhetoric is facing today. The first part of this paper gives a brief overview of classic and new humanitarianism, humanitarian practice and theory. The second part of the article takes Rwanda as a case study and examines some possible reasons for non-intervention by the international community during the unfolding tragedy in Rwanda in the spring and early summer of 1994. More precisely, it will explore three main views: indifference to what was happening in Rwanda; the psychological phenomenon of diffusion of responsibility and the slippery slope argument. The aim of this paper is to illustrate the pitfalls of humanitarianism, in a changing world, as well as encourage a re-conceptualization of humanitarianism, and of some of those indeterminate rules and 'slippery' concepts it is working with.
This articles presents the current universalism vs cultural relativism debate of children's rights applied to the issue of child soldiers' disarmament, demobilization and reintegration (DDR) programs. Following a brief description of both perspectives and of the most common DDR programs, we present what each perspective identifies in the literature as being the main problems and best practices of DDR programs and how these widely differing problems and best practices reflect the current impasse of the larger philosophical debate. In an effort to move away from this impasse in a pragmatic manner, we recommend the development of programming by a multidisciplinary team of experts who can come to paint a multifaceted and grounded understanding of the conflict and the environment into which the child soldier must reintegrate, thereby creating programming that is both respectful of fundamental human rights and adaptable to the complex reality of each individual child soldier.

Good morning! We started our day off this morning with our first homemade smoothie. We're custom to pouring a glass of some kind of superfood from the grocery store before leaving for work, but thought since we have the time this morning, we'd customize it a bit.
1 orange
1 banana
1/2 C Coconut Milk
A splash of orange juice
1 scoop Super Green Fruit & Veggie
While preparing, I had a drooling partner down at my feet, one of our pups, Keith. I swear in a past life, he was a vegetarian. He LUVS the fruits and veggies we allow him. I didn't want to leave him out, so we made him and his sister Tina a little smoothie as well : )
1 banana
2 heaping tablespoons goat's milk yogurt
1/2 C water
So last night I had intentions of making "wish" tacos (tofu over fish) but pregnancy got the best of me and I was lazy so we ordered in Proto's ;) so today will be a double down day–up first Vegan French Toast. This stuff was good-like couldn't tell the difference between it and the real deal, our only downfall was that since it was last minute we couldn't find a good thick vegan bread at Sunflower this morning but with some prep time I think that would be easily remedied. Again, finding vegan bread isn't hard but in a pinch this morning thick cut was-so we just used a normal slice bread.
Grocery List
1/2 block firm tofu
1.5 tsp cinnamon
2 TBS agave
1/2 C almond milk
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 TBS earth balance coconut spread
Chopped nuts (we used pecans) or sliced almonds
Vegan bread
Coconut spread or coconut oil for frying
Blend all ingredients together until smooth and creamy, adding a touch more milk if needed. Dip both sides of bread in batter, dunking just until barely soaked through-remove excess batter and sprinkle with nuts, pressing gently so they stick to battered bread. Fry over medium heat until browned on both sides. Enjoy with earth balance butter, maple syrup or almond butter. [I ate mine w/ ginger syrup, I must be on a ginger kick or something lately]
It srsly tasted exactly the same as "real" French toast and is such an easy quick breakfast. I'd love to try it with my orange/almond French toast recipe–because I like the cruelty free aspects, however am not a huge fan of the soy overload and using tofu…so sort of a toss-up. Do they make an almond based version of tofu?! Hmmm, I'll search for a recipe and maybe attempt that…
Rwd enjoyed it ;)
1 cup pineapple
1/2 cup frozen strawberries
1 kiwi
1 cup of ice
1 teaspoon hemp seeds
a sprinkle of chia seeds
1 scoop of plant protein
1 cup coconut water
1/2 cup coconut milk

Rawlings(R) Partners with Perfect Game USA to Announce Inaugural

My mother was a good southern lady. Even in heavy summers when the heat and humidity were so oppressive they stole your breath away, she was always perfectly made up, completely collected: hair caught up in pins and ribbons and the right amount of lipstick without any smudges. The neighbor ladies, try as they might to keep up their decorum, never managed and ended up unkempt and drenched with sweat. Their dresses clung to their bodies and their hair slipped out of place and their makeup disappeared within five minutes of stepping into the sun. But not my mother. No, not her. It seemed like she was always walking in a secret breeze she had found and managed to capture for herself. She was a good, clean, church-going woman, so much so that even the old crones inhabiting the veranda across the way couldn't say much about her.
My mother was friendly and sociable and she always smiled, but I always had a feeling, watching her when she didn't know I was, that I never knew her much at all. Even when she spoke to daddy and kissed him when he came home, I saw in her eyes something that I couldn't name. A depth that she never plumbed. At least not around me. Not around daddy, I expect, either. When she played hymns on the piano, I saw it even more clearly, and sometimes when she let me play with her, she would make a move to speak and that place in her eyes opened for a moment, came to the front, but then she would change her mind and traded what she was about to say for something different. And her eyes went back to what they were: just a hint of a something flickering beneath the surface.
One time I came home from playing in the creek down the hill, caked in mud and bits of a grass, but with a pristine white daisy stuck behind my ear and larkspur braided messily into my hair. My mother fussed and used all the foul language she could allow her tongue to utter as she scrubbed me raw in the tub. She plucked all the flowers out of my hair, complaining about the knots and tangles they gave me before she sent me off to bed while she tried her best to get the grass stains out of my new, department store shirt.
A week later, after she came home from the supermarket and we both put away the groceries, my mother handed me a book without a word, and I thought I saw that something in her eyes crystallize for a moment before she turned away. I took it upstairs and opened it only once I'd buried myself in the safety of my pillows. All the flowers she'd untangled from my hair were pressed and preserved perfectly on the first page with their proper names carefully listed beneath—bellis perennis, delphinium alabamium—and a note written in the corner in her flawless script, "A girl should know a part of nature as well as she knows herself." We never spoke about it. She never brought it up again, but by the time I'd grown out of that house which felt smaller with each passing year, I'd filled all the empty pages with pressed flowers and leaves of my own, so much so that the spine could barely hold all of my bounty.

Spartacus: Blood and Sand was an historical drama on cable channel Starz on Friday nights that featured the late Australian actor Andy Whitfield, along with Jai Courtney, Peter Mensah and Erin Cummings.
At first glance the series was very much in the style of 300, i.e. scantily clad men, with muscles oiled, wielding swords and generally putting their testosterone to good use with snarling, shouting, fighting and plenty more action on top of that.
As with the film 300, the lead characters were very well toned, with strong athletic muscle on show. Luckily we had the chance to take a peek at a behind the scenes training workout for the actors working on the series.
Andy Whitfield Spartacus Workout
The workouts to prepare for the role of Spartacus are very much gladiator inspired workouts, using bodyweight exercises and free weights. If you have ever done any martial arts training or been along to a Cross Fit class then you will be familiar with the sort of workouts that Andy Whitfield endured for the role.
Andy's main tips for getting in shape are incredibly simple: "Train more and Eat Less"
These are the key elements to his workouts:
- Acrobatics – jumps, dives, rolls etc. to help compliment fight training
- Gymnastics – to learn to tumble
- Fighting techniques – specific weapons training plus martial arts exercises to condition and tone the fighting muscles
- Focus on compound exercises
Spartacus Weight Training Routine
The actors were sent to "Gladiator Boot Camp" 2 weeks before filming started to get them extra toned and ready for filming. Peter Mensah, who worked on 300 and also has extensive martial arts training, said that he did more training in preparation for Spartacus than he did in his competition days! They would train for four hours every morning.
- Deadlifts
- Squats
- Bent Over Rows
- Lunges
- Press Ups with side planks
- Kettlebell Raises
- Pull Ups
- Dips
- Bicep Curls
This video shows the routine that was put together by Men's Health and is done by Nat Jones.
Spartacus Cardio Training Routine
Cardio is also essential, even with intensive bodyweight workouts and weight training. Improving your cardiovascular fitness allows you to work at a greater intensity. It also burns a lot of fat. Typical cardio drills should include:
- Rowing machine – also works upper body
- Shuttle Runs
- Medicine Ball throws
- Mountain Climbers
Spartacus Diet
Without a strict diet all the fitness training can quickly go to waste. Even with regular intensive workouts a poor diet can prevent significant fat loss and impair fitness progress. As muscle growth was a key goal their diets consisted of a lot of protein.
- The actors consumed 4 energy/protein shakes per day to help fuel and build muscle.
- Calories were reduced to help with fat loss
IMDb.com provide a short biography for Andy Whitfield.

Kendrick Lamar at Osheaga 2013 (more by Toby Tenenbaum)
Big Sean is releasing his new album, Hall of Fame, on August 27, and between his recent singles and guest verses, there's definitely some anticipation behind it. But the most exciting thing about it right now is the fact that last night (8/12) on Hot 97 (via Pitchfork), Big Sean revealed an outtake from the album, "Control (HOF)" (it didn't make the cut due to sample clearance issues), that features Jay Electronica and possibly the best battle-rap verse in years, courtesy of Kendrick Lamar. Check it out below.
Big Sean and Kendrick Lamar will be in the NYC-area to play Rock the Bells in October.
Kendrick also plays his own NYC show at Williamsburg Park on September 10. Tickets for that show are still available.

It's official – Roxy, the Ford Fusion that Jaime Case and Chris Hodges have been using for the weddingroadtrip.com blog – will be at their wedding, which is just a few weeks away.
Instead of asking guests to attend their wedding reception, Jaime and Chris hit the road to see them! So they made a plan, mapped out the 250 people that they'd like to visit, borrowed a 2010 Ford Fusion and set out on their journey.
Their trip came to an end a little over a week ago, but they decided to extend the fun by traveling throughout California before their big day.
Officially, the wedding road trip is a pre-wedding road trip around the country to see friends and family prior to signing a marriage certificate. This trip focuses on learning more about marriage and the commitment therein.
A selection of their blog posts can be viewed in our Ford on Blogs section by clicking here.

"Absolutely love these invitations. I love the simplicity. I added a small baby blue bow in the corner above the "y." I received many compliments. I originally ordered 75 invitations, but only 25 envelopes came with the order. Not more that 2 days after letting this company know of the error, I had my 50 envelopes with an extra 5. Customer service is a 10 and ordering was simple and fun. Highly recommend!"
"I have ordered from Tiny prints many times and I am completely satisfied with the finished product when I receive it. I am happy to send the letters to friends and family knowing that your product represents the type of style and quality that I like. Thank you Tiny Prints for making it easy to chose from such a great variety of cards for the special events we have in our life. Keep up the great work!"
"This invitation turned out beautiful! I ordered them in pearl shimmer and put the RSVP / Registration notifications on the back."
"I was so very happy with this order and these cards in every way. Shipment and delivery were immediate, received the order in just a few days. Everything was as expected, beautiful and well done. Love the paper texture. Even included extra card and envelopes. Very happy and would use Tinyprints again!"
"Everything about the baby shower invitations I ordered was high quality. I was very impressed with the beautiful vintage look of the invitations - just what I wanted. I had a problem with the delivery and the customer service rep was excellent and solved the problem for me. The delivery was prompt and before the expected delivery date."

Beyond Occupy
January 12, 2012 in Event
In 2011, the Occupy Movement sent the message loud and clear: the 99 percent has had enough of corporations hijacking our economy, politics, media, and diet. In the spirit of Dr. King and the civil rights legacy, we recognize that many communities have been fighting this fight since the beginning of "America".
In 2012, it's up to us to come together and start building solid alternatives.
Join Redline, The GrowHaus, and a host of hip-hop artists and community activists on MLK day for an interactive afternoon of live art, fresh food, conversation and action steps towards building a Denver that's for the people, ALL PEOPLE, sustainably.
Bring the whole family for community dialogue, spoken word, video, skill-sharing, healthy food, and opportunities to get involved! Activities will be available for children and adults of all ages.

Loving someone too much?
Have you ever love somebody too much that even when they always hurt you, lied to you, ignore you and left you, you are still loving them?
What's Your Opinion?
Most Helpful Opinion
* I used to think people who loved regardless of the character of the person they 'loved'. , Were not in love , but were desperate, weak, obsessed, or simply delusional themselves. Now I think it is more just conflicting levels of experience. They may be connected to the persons spirit, but the persons spirit- due to life taking difficult twists turns, that may thwart a person from living up y their full potential- is not connected to their true personality. & Because when you truly feel love, your knowledge or experience is tacitly or is intuitively understood, you, in a way experience something of that person, they themselves do not experience of themselves- or at least do not consciously understand. (In case this point gets lost in them, you should not loose sight of it. No mater how strong your 'love' feels, when you can not live up to your own potential (the person disrespects you, does not value who you truly are, refuses to acknowledge your worth as separate but equal human being) you are weakened in your ability to love, & therefore useless as love, to the one you love, another reason why you need to be careful of 'how' from 'where' you love, 'when' & 'who' and you love) I do not think you are crazy or a poor judge of character,for recognizing where you love. Love is love. It is real before it is understood & it is most often recognized long before it (is accepted by both, or) is realized/ can come to fruition. You, just need to decide at what point the impact & power of this love, is beneficial or worthwhile to the both of you, (you can 'love' selfishly) & at what point it is predominately detrimental to the both of you (sometimes to truly 'love' you need to walk away). Loving who you love is not crazy. Not knowing when to say good bye to the 'person' you love,( tho you make keep the ' feeling' your love for life) can verge on it, & times can be insane & can also lead to insanity :)(Because love involves more than just yourself, You need to be be true to love not just to yourself... Its tricky stuff lol -- Good luck :)
Awesome answer
What Guys Said 14
Lying is a show-stopper.``Loving'' someone like that is not love; it's a one-way co-dependency.Virtues: I'm rich, handsome, educated, respectful, have nice table manners, ...Fault: I'm a liar.See?
The only comment I can make is that I am sure guys and girls will have a very different response to this.
She means everything to me and I would do anything for her, but she only wants to be friends or so she says, despite her flirting and eye contact telling me she wants more :(
I've felt that way about somebody for almost three years now.
yes, I'm going through that right now and it's hell. I don't know what to do
"I have loved to the point of madness; That which is called madness, That which to me, is the only sensible way to love."
Young Lady, this may be a big pill for you to swallow, be it is true. We are not capable of loving anyone too much. Our best idea of love is less than a drop in a sea of what love truly is. If we say we love someone, then NOTHING should ever change that. We love from an understanding of what love is that we hold onto with everything we have. If we allow it to stop, become less, fall off or in any way cease to exist, then we devalue our own idea of what is dearest and most important to us. Our idea of what love is cannot ever be allowed to be altered. If it is, we cease to have a solid foundation in which to stand on. And when that happens, we begin to crumble under the weight of our burdens. Love is truly more than we are able to grasp or thoroughly understand. If it were, it would not be enough to hold us up under the load of our many burdens.
Yes I have! And then, I thought to myself: "Enough is enough!" and then I ditched her like a bad habit that she was. You see, when you put in sprayed on insulation in your house, when you think that you have put enough, that means you have put too much. The same goes with relationships. When you question if you have loved enough, you have loved too much for the other party to deserve it. Consequently, when you wonder if you have loved too much that certainly means the dude is so undeserving your love that it is not funny. Find someone else with enough sense to know that he is so lucky to have you loving him that he won't take you for granted.
Thanks for your advice. I've tried to ditch him so many times but never succeed. Wish I could be that strong =)
I never did, and I won't love to someone who hurt me, who ignore me, who lied me,
From what you described I believe I have
Yeah... At first we just wanted a friend. But nothing really happens like you think it will. Needless to say over 6 months we developed a love for each other. Something neither of us wanted at this stage of our lives. She broke it off and I fell off. It's still hard trying to maintain being friends because I still care for her and always feeling pulled in to be more then just friends. It's only been two weeks and it's already felt like a century of us being apart. And trying to forget it hard; it seems I don't want any other girl to consume my time then her. The funny thing is that we haven't seen each other physically, just phone and texting. But, it does seem things are coming around for the better. There more then likely won't be a possibility for a renewal of our relationship... At least officially, it is subtle because I know she loves me and I love her.
Have not seen each other physically since two weeks ago, hehe.
She just doesn't understand how much she means to me. All the other do*chebags treat her like some kind of trophy.
I don't think you can love someone 'too much' but I know how you feel and it SUCKS
What Girls Said 20
yeah but after that initial time I found out the guy cheated on me, I dropped him. the thing is, you can only take so much and you become a door mat if you take their abuse. if you want the best relationship, don't take s*** from anyone. that's my line.
Yeah. I'm in that situation right now.But it can be love or obsession.You might not want to admit you're obsessed but think honestly,Would you do anything for them? If they were hospitalized and needed to be taken care of would you want to have someone else do it or would you want to take care of them?
That kind of love scares me...it scares me to think that I may feel this for someone because I know it would kill me if they ever did something like that...but I guess that the risk you take by truly loving someone
I have definitely been there, and you are definitely not alone haha.That's how I'm feeling right now. He just told me he cheated and guess what? I still love him. : \
Yes. Love is unconditional. It doesn't matter what someone does if you truly love them you will love them regardless of what they do or how they act.
i don't think once you start loving someone you just snap out of it...its taken me years to fall out of love with a guy who trested me like crap...often times tho what your taking about is a sign of coe dependence which is an unhealthy attachment to someone .. id look up coe dependency on the internet and see if what's going on with you is similiar to what ius described. I've struggled with coe dependency a lot and it can lead to a lot of hurt if you don't get it worked out.
There is a difference between loving someone and desiring them. Of course you desire the person you love, but would you love the person if you didn't desire them?If you do really love and desire a person who hurts you, as I have also been there and go through this sort of thing occasionally with my current boyfriend, then all I can say is everyday make yourself a little stronger and less dependant on that love (desire). Because it's not the love that hurts, it's the need and the desire tied up with love that does. Finding freedom and independance allows you to love more and in a freer way, it also makes you a much more attractive person and you will soon find there are a lot more people out there who will treat you better, but you've got to treat yourself better first. Distance yourself, and you will escape the addiction that love can draw you into. Then review your relationship with a clearer head, rather than a cloudy one cast across with emotional storms. There is nothing wrong with loving someone unconditionally as long as it doesn't hurt you. If it's disturbing your peace of mind, then you have to withdraw. It's crucial to love yourself unconditionally too.
Thank you =)
You're very welcome. :)
Oh ya. I'm still there now. But I understand it's hard to just leave someone that you think you love so much. It should be obvious to us women that if you love someone, they should love you enough in return in order for you to not question why you love this person, because essentially that is what you are doing. He's lied to you, ignored you, etc., and you're wondering why you still love this person. Love is never equal in relationships. One person always loves more than the other. It just sucks when you are the one who loves more than the other.
Yes this always happen to me. It was last month, I thought he felt the same way but he was just using me to get his ex back or just to get pleasure. I still think about him today but I try my best to get over him and move on. I can't love someone forever that won't never love me.
yess, it happens to almost everyone. its the worst & best feeling in the world.. :/
Yea I've but it wasn't too much actually very much, waay so stupid,and waay so wrong.I don't know if he lied or not but he left and ignored me that really hurt me I don't know what's going on anymore and I still have feelings for him. :pI think I still have feelings for him because I've that stupid feeling called "hope" or I'm just wishing that things were different .whateva I don't know.O.o` it's a lost case.
it's a cruel spell, get out of there fassssssst
Yes and I truly hate myself for that, its better off if you never loved that person when they kept hurting you. Sweety its not worth it, you need to forget about that jerk who keeps treating you like sh*t. I've been in your position and never want to be again.
Me neither but it's so hard to forget him =(
- Show Older Hide Older
I totally agree. You definitely WILL NOT feel like this about him forever, nor indeed for very long. Just find something in yourself that makes you feel content and alive. Write, dance, walk, create something. Laugh with friends. Paint a picture, join a class, find a hobby, anything that forces you to concentrate on something else. Soon your mind will change its pattern of thinking. And you'll have to struggle to remember him. In time, when it comes to him, you'll be like - who?
I really hope I can forget him. I'm doing things I've never done before like going to the gym, taking a cardio dance class, baking, starting a business and many more but I still can't shake the pain away. But then somehow, I stop crying. I haven't cried in two weeks now and I wish it could last for so long. Thank you for the advices =)
Yep! I have been there and still am. I still love my ex-boyfried and he cheated on me and never admitted. He lied to me and did a lot more things to hurt me. Then he dumped me after I chased him and tried to make our relationship work. He won in his mind. This stuff happens because if you allow someone to do these things they WILL. You can't let people do that to you or they are going to dump you and never give a crap about you. I still love him but over time I have lost that feeling of wanting to be with him. He was my first boyfriend. I am glad I didn't give him my viriginty. LOL...I WIN.
LOL..I guess we will always remember our first love eventhough how much they hurt us..
Well, he was first boyfriend not my first love. I believe God has something better for me.
Well, no. I mean all that stuff has happened to me with someone I loved... hurt, lied, ignored, left... But by that point I realize this isn't the "love" I want.
Yes... My boyfriend drives me crazy. One minute he'll completely ignore me and make me feel worthless. But the next minute, he is just so perfect, we have amazing chemistry and always have so much fun together. He's the only person that feels like home to me, and I can always be myself. So even though he may treat me like garbage at times, I know his motives aren't intentional, so I don't take it to heart. I think that when you love someone, you have to accept that they won't always be at their best... Nobody is perfect, and while he may be perfect at times, I realized people are never who you want them to be. So I stick with him, because that's what I think love is. I read this somewhere: "A girl meets three guys in her life. The guy she loves. The guy she hates. And the guy she can't get enough of. And they all turn out to be the same guy."
of course. we al do. we just have to learn to say no, and believe that we deserve someone better. and being in a relationship like this isn't healthy for both of you.
i haven't been in that situation, but if you are I will advise you to love yourself more than you love someone who mistreats you. once you do that, your problem will solve itself. good luck.
Yes. They cheated on me, lied to me, lied to me some more, and they did some other stuff too, but I've still been with them because I love them, even if they basically killed me inside
I know exactly how you feel. If loving them bring us nothing but pain, why can't we unlove them?

This is the daily tech show to beat all others.
Whether you want a high-quality printer, an all-in-one workhorse, a compact photo printer, or a simp
The Canon Pixma MX372 is a sensible printing solution for personal use, but photographers and offices looking for a network-ready printer could spend a little more up front for better output quality.
The Canon Pixma MX860's auto-document feeder, large LCD screen, and quick print speeds are sure to increase your productivity, but it also includes plenty of software to nourish your creative interests. At $199, this multifunctional printer earns our recommendation.
A digital camera is a valuable imaging resource, but what happens when you need a physical copy? For when virtual sharing just isn't good enough, Canon takes the opportunity at CES 2013 to reveal four new Pixma multifunction inkjet printers.
This multitalented model lists for $100 and sells for at least $60 elsewhere. It's new, not refurbished.
If you're shopping for a sub-$100 multifunction printer for intermittent use in your home, the Canon Pixma MP495 will meet your needs. It prints, scans, and copies documents, and the integrated wireless print server means you won't have a bundle of cables tangling up the office. We have a few flaws to nitpick, but otherwise Canon scores with the Pixma MP495.
Boasting Apple AirPrint, automatic double-sided printing, and impressive performance for the price, the Canon Pixma MG3200 is a fine choice for shoppers looking for an inexpensive printer.
Despite its remote-printing capabilities, the Kodak ESP 3.2's design blunders and inconsistent performance are unacceptable in the face of competing multifunctions in the sub-$100 category.
The HP Photosmart 7510 e-All-in-One boasts quick output speeds, multiple connectivity options, cloud printing, and a growing number of apps in the HP Web store, earning our recommendation to those hunting for a flexible imaging machine.
The Hero 9.1 is a suitable choice for shoppers who need a capable multifunction imaging device with acceptable performance, apps that bring workflow into the cloud, and dual paper feed trays.
If you're not in a rush to receive your prints, the Office Pro 6.1 makes a worthwhile sidekick with several cloud printing options, a generous 200-sheet paper input capacity, and a 35-sheet autodocument feeder for hands-free scans on the upgraded 2,400dpi scanner.

Anybody that has set his or her sights set on the very first production model of the 2013 SRT Viper will have to pay a whole lot more for the opportunity of owning it.
SRT has announced that the Viper model that was on display at the 2012 New York Auto Show will be auctioned off with the proceeds from the sale going to the Austin Hatcher Foundation for Pediatric Cancer. The car will be auctioned off at the Barrett-Jackson event in Orange County so if you're interested in making bids on it, be sure to be in attendance and have your checkbook in hand.
According to Jim Osborn, co-founder of the Austin Hatcher Foundation, the first production SRT Viper is not only an absolutely gorgeous car, but the proceeds will go to the many families faced with pediatric cancer. "We are thrilled that SRT has chosen us to be a part of this extraordinary opportunity," he said. "We are tremendously excited to see the 2013 SRT Viper. It is an amazing vehicle. We just can't thank Mr. Gilles and his team enough."
Just in case you've forgotten, the new SRT Viper is powered by a new 8.4-liter all-aluminum, V-10 overhead-valve engine that delivers a total of 640 HP and 600 lb.-ft. of torque – the most torque of any naturally aspirated engine in the world. It is mated to a six-speed manual transmission.

What is your favourite quote and why?
I would like to begin here a compendium of those bits of wisdom humanity perceives to be most true or without exception.
It is not necessary to name who might be credited with saying your selection, as no such person can honestly claim to have been without some outside inspiration, which catalyzed their creativity and moved them to express their insight.
Much like what you are called here to do.
If you yourself have distilled some wisdom through reflection, please allow me to present you this moment to pass it on here for consideration or perhaps start your own string.
The purpose of all this is to provide a most efficient tool for correlating the most valid ideas about morality and what we perceive to be real or important across culture or socialization. I would then like to work with you to turn this soil and see what new things (ideas) might grow. Food for the soul.
You are encouraged to emulate the creative process here so: COPY, COMBINE and TRANSFORM! Help me correlate.

Mar 15 2012: I was in high school when I came across my favorite quote; it was on the cover of an English textbook:
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.
— Lord Alfred Tennyson
I am big on quotes that echo the notion that we ought to always be looking to make progress, always looking to better ourselves and those around us. Even though we often encounter insurmountable obstacles, or what seem to be insurmountable when we are before them, we should approach life with forward intent. This idea is also captured here:
There is death in stagnation. There is life in movement.

CountryMark and Indiana Prairie Farmer, long-time supporters of FFA, teamed up this year to sponsor an essay contest. The theme this year: "What did you learn from your most memorable
FFA experience?" The contest was open to any current or alumni Indiana FFA members—and the results are in.
After carefully reviewing 24 adult and 109 youth entries, the judges selected the following winners:
From the youth category:
• 1st place: Raegan Smith of Rushville Consolidated High School FFA chapter—$250
• 2nd place: Bryana Slisher of Caston Jr./Sr. High School FFA chapter—$150
• 3rd place: Kelly Burger of Franklin County High School FFA chapter—$50

Besides the prizes awarded to the winners, CountryMark donated $10 per entry—$1330 total—to the Indiana FFA Foundation. Contest winners will also be recognized in the August issue of Indiana Prairie Farmer.
"On behalf of the entire CountryMark team, we would like to congratulate all of this year's winners," said CountryMark Vice President of Marketing Jon Lantz. "As a farmer-owned cooperative, we thoroughly enjoyed reading all of the essays. Like all of our contest entrants, we share a passion for agriculture and the success of Indiana farmers."
In fact, CountryMark is one of only four farmer-owned oil refining companies in the United States today.
"Finally we would like to say "thank you" to all 133 of our contest entrants," said Lantz. "We appreciate your dedication to FFA and your commitment to the Hoosier state. Continue to wear your blue jackets proudly as you uphold the ideals of such a fine organization."

Many of the new small schools are having more success in preparing students for high school graduation and college and 21st century careers than traditional zoned schools. But these schools often lack what adults today recall as the highlights of their high school days: extracurricular activities, including sports, arts, and debate; teachers with a wide range of expertise.
If students at small schools are seeing improved outcomes, what does that mean for traditional large schools? How can large zoned high schools keep a place for themselves in the city's ambitious school system? Equally, how can small schools provide the wide spectrum of activities that enrich students' lives and create community? Read responses from Constancia Warren, James Kemple, Rebecca Unterman, Deirdre DeAngelis-D'Alessio, Shael Polakow-Suransky, JD Hoye and Joe Luft.

Love makes the world go 'round, or so they say. And I sincerely believe that it is almost literally true, because love is a powerful force in the universe. It is an energy and an elemental power that sustains life, lights the stars and suns, and keeps the planets moving. It also makes human life worth living – we see the proof every day in our daily lives and dealings with people. But, as important as love seems to be in human existence, a deeper and more interesting question is, should a person ever be in a relationship with no romance?
A Relationship With No Romance – Will It Ever Work?
Part of the problem in considering this question comes from the confusion of the two words in our usage – love and romance. We understand that love is an emotion that a mother can have for a son, or a man for his grandfather, and that romance is not a part of that love. We also know that typically a wife can have love for a husband in the former sense, and also feel romantic love for him. So, it is logically possible to be in a loving relationship and yet not have romance in that situation. Historically this has been called a Platonic relationship, after the Greek philosopher who first considered the issue millennia ago.
However, Platonic love is by definition love without a sexual component, and we generally equate romance with the sexual part of a couple's relationship. But it is certainly possible for a man and a woman to meet each other's sexual needs without having a romantic element. So being with another person in a couple, whether married or unofficially committed, and having everything but the romance is definitely possible. But is it something a person should ever conceivably settle for?
It is very likely that people exist in this world – the variety of human behavior is well known – who need to be in a close, even intimate relationship with another person for basic companionship, and yet not need or want romance. There is without a doubt a certain type that sees romantic love as anti-intellectual and as a distraction from real life. Basic human needs can be satisfied for this kind of person without involving the idea of romance and passion. After all, not everyone is a Don Juan or the female equivalent, and we all know folks who just take take life extremely seriously, in a business-like fashion. For them, a romantic element in a relationship can be done without, and should be.
The woman (or man) who marries for financial security for herself and for her children is a common plot device on tv shows and in the movies, as well as in literature. One would assume that if that is the case, there is a lack of romance in the situation, just as in an arranged marriage. But as much as we are familiar with the idea, we tend to pity these people for missing out on romance in exchange for basic needs.
We feel this way because a relationship without romance is like food with no salt – the spark, the passion, the yearning is what makes love come alive, and in turn what makes life worth living. If love is indeed the most powerful force in the world, then romantic love is a very close second – and no one should settle for less.

The conference aims to build and develop a vibrant library community through invited speakers, contributed papers, posters, lightning talks, panels, workshops, and networking with those interested in assessment. The fifth Library Assessment Conference is co-sponsored by the Association of Research Libraries (ARL) and the University of Washington (UW) Libraries.

No ARL-hosted system—including the StatsQUAL® sites, such as http://libqual.org/, http://climatequal.org/, or http://arlstatistics.org/—utilized OpenSSL. ARL sites and services operated on third-party platforms (e.g., Google Apps for Business) were quickly patched by those third-party vendors. While it is not necessary to change passwords that you may have on any ARL-related site at this time, you may wish to go ahead and do so, as it is a good practice to change passwords periodically.

James Neal testifying at House copyright hearingJames G. Neal, Columbia University's university librarian and vice president for information services, served as the voice of libraries to the US House of Representatives Judiciary Subcommittee on Courts, Intellectual Property, and the Internet on Wednesday, April 2, 2014, when the subcommittee held a hearing on preserving and reusing copyrighted work. The hearing, "Preservation and Reuse of Copyrighted Works," explored a variety of copyright issues, including orphan works, mass digitization, and specific provisions of the Copyright Act that concern preservation by libraries and archives.
image © Clemson University LibraryThe Association of Research Libraries (ARL) and the Society of American Archivists (SAA) have extended the application deadline through Wednesday, April 16, 2014, for the second cohort of the ARL/SAA Mosaic Program. This program promotes much-needed diversification of the archives and special collections professional workforce by providing financial support, practical work experience, mentoring, career placement assistance, and leadership development to emerging professionals from traditionally underrepresented racial and ethnic minority groups. An important objective of the program is to attract and retain individuals who demonstrate excellent potential for scholastic and personal achievement and who manifest a commitment both to the archives and special collections profession and to advancing diversity concerns within it.
Former DII fellow Jonathan Sauceda talks about DII benefitsARL is now accepting applications for the ARL/Music Library Association (MLA) Diversity and Inclusion Initiative (DII). This scholarship program, funded by a Laura Bush 21st Century Librarian Program grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) and by ARL and MLA, offers minority candidates an opportunity to pursue the master's degree in library and information science (MLIS) while gaining valuable "hands-on" experience in a major music library. The initiative's goal is to increase the number of underrepresented racial/ethnic minorities within music librarianship by providing support for master's-level LIS education and the practical experience critical for successful entrance into the profession.
Aligning Repository Networks meeting, image © COARIn a meeting in Rome, Italy, on March 20–21, 2014, representatives from several major regional repository networks came together to develop a strategy to better align their activities. The meeting convened delegates from Australia, Canada, China, Europe, Latin America, and the United States, including representatives from AOASG (Australian Open Access Support Group), CARL (Canadian Association of Research Libraries), COAR (Confederation of Open Access Repositories), LIBER (Ligue des Bibliothèques Européennes de Recherche), the National Science Library of Chinese Academy of Sciences, OpenAIRE (Open Access Infrastructure for Research in Europe), and SHARE (SHared Access Research Ecosystem).
James G. NealOn Wednesday, April 2, 2014, the US House Committee on the Judiciary, Subcommittee on Courts, Intellectual Property, and the Internet continued its copyright review. This hearing focused on "Preservation and Reuse of Copyrighted Works" with six panelists: Gregory Lukow (chief, Packard Campus for Audio Visual Conservation, Library of Congress), Richard Rudick (co-chair, Section 108 Study Group), James G. Neal (vice president for information services and university librarian, Columbia University), Jan Constantine (general counsel, the Authors Guild), Michael C. Donaldson (partner, Donaldson + Callif, LLP, on behalf of Film Independent and International Documentary Association), and Jeffry Sedlik (president and chief executive officer, PLUS Coalition). Written testimony from each witness is available on the House Judiciary Committee website.
James Neal's statement (PDF), endorsed by the Library Copyright Alliance (LCA), provides that the "overarching point is that the existing statutory framework, which combines the specific library exceptions in Section 108 with the flexible fair use right, works well for libraries, and does not require amendment." In reaching this point, the written statement goes through four issues: (1) the importance of library preservation, (2) how the library exceptions under Section 108 supplement rather than supplant fair use, (3) the diminished need for orphan works legislation, and (4) perspective on the HathiTrust case.

Apple Inc. has started manufacturing a new version of its iPad tablet computer with a built-in camera and faster processor, the Wall Street Journal is reporting.
Citing people familiar with the situation, the WSJ writes that the new iPad will be thinner and lighter than the first model. It will have at least one camera on the front of the device for features like video-conferencing, more memory and a more powerful graphics processor, the WSJ reports.
The new iPad will initially be available through Verizon Wireless and AT&T Inc., but not Sprint Nextel Corp. or T-Mobile in the U.S., the WSJ says.
The iPad, which debuted last April, has opened a new market and is critical to Apple's success, the WSJ writes. Since the iPad's release, Apple has sold 14.8 million units of the device. In Apple's December quarter, the tablet contributed $4.6 billion in sales, or 17% of the company's overall revenue, the WSJ reports.
Piper Jaffray & Co. estimates Apple will sell 27 million iPads in 2011, the WSJ writes. Some investors expect as many as 35 million units in sales, the WSJ says.
