As it now stands, we have reached perhaps the most bittersweet moment in the college basketball season. While the season may be wrapping up and we are ever so closer to the marvelous March Madness, we are also one step closer to the completion of the college basketball season and having to wait months before the best sport of the year returns to our televisions.
Until then, however, I can revel in the fact that this is the time of the year when the best small conference schools come to the forefront of the college basketball landscape. Most small conferences have at least one team that stands above all others and dominates the rest in conference play, which is a wonderful segue into the conference tournaments. Small conferences have tournaments that occur before the ones we normally look forward to (i.e. Big XII, ACC, et. al.), giving us a wonderful opportunity to take a glimpse at some of these terrific small conference schools that are normally overlooked during the regular season.
This season, three small conference schools are standing tall and even garnering some AP Poll votes. Those three teams are the Horizon League's Green Bay Phoenix (24-5, 14-2), the MEAC's North Carolina Central Eagles (23-5, 13-1), and the Southland's Stephen F. Austin Lumberjacks (27-2, 16-0). All of these teams received votes in the latest AP Poll (11 for SFA, 2 for Green Bay, and 1 for NCCU) and they're all surging late in the season. For instance, Stephen F. Austin is currently on a 24-game winning streak, with their last loss coming in late November. That's extremely impressive, to say the least.
Green Bay is certainly the team that is benefiting the most from Butler's departure from the Horizon League. While it certainly looked like this season would be Cleveland State's for the taking, the Phoenix have risen to the challenge and managed to have won the Horizon League regular season title, a feat they haven't accomplished since 1996, which was the last year that they were in the NCAA Tournament. However, if they are to return to the big dance this season, they'll need to win their conference tournament, which could be easier said than done if they have another run-in with some of the conference's top teams like Cleveland State and Wright State.
The North Carolina Central Eagles are relative newcomers to Division I basketball, and they are currently pursuing their school's first ever NCAA Tournament berth. As of now, the Eagles have clinched at least a share of the MEAC Title and are looking for two more wins before the conference tournament starts. The Eagles have won 15 games in a row and are led by one of the top scorers in the conference , Senior Guard Jeremy Ingram. Ingram is averaging 20.2 points per game and is going to provide just the proper push that NCCU needs to propel them through their conference tournament and become just another team to make the tournament before Northwestern does.
Of all the teams on this list that are most likely to make some noise in the big dance, Stephen F. Austin is the one that I think could do just that. The Lumberjacks have only two losses to their name this season and while one was a 10 point loss at Texas, the other was a bad loss to a mediocre East Tennessee State team. This Lumberjacks team knows how to win and this season it has become old hat to them. There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that the Lumberjacks will be dancing this season in what will be only their second appearance in the tournament.
While it has certainly been a strange and somewhat rewarding college basketball season, I don't know if I could be more excited by the prospect that these three teams hold. This small conference trio wields a great amount of potential and could certainly go into March ready for success. While I highly doubt they'll win any tournament games, there's no doubt in my mind that at least one of these teams could give someone who overlooked them a run for their money.

Show polls from: today | last seven days | last four weeks | all
Sort by: most recent | most comments | most votes
I have two boys, two girls and now I'm expecting twin girls. Can you eliminate just one until there are four names left? Thank you!
We are having our 1st little girl and we are having a hard time on deciding on a name. We will list our favorite first and middle names in the comments.
I will post one name, and the first poster will list that name as well as all siblings of someone that they know with that name. The next person will pick one of the names of the siblings, and list all of the siblings of someone that has that name. If you know more than one set of siblings, only use one. The name that I am starting with is Landon.
Hey my name is Taylor and I'm 17. My boyfriend and I are trying to get pregnant and would like your options on the names we have picked out and no this is not fake I am not creating this poll for drama purposes and I don't want to be lectured on not to have a baby at 17 either.
Hello, we are having a little girl in October. But we have a vary long list of names that we love. Than I saw a poll like this one, and thought it was a good idea for us to do. So are list is in the first comment, but you can only elimination ONE NAME per parson, And you can only bring back ONE NAME per parson to. ~thanks so much! Melissa & Jack
Hey! To make a very long story, that I'm sure none of you want to hear, short; we received very bad, rude, and unsupportive responses about the names we had picked for our child. We are now starting over and need your help. We are using Frank and Jean as middle names and tend to lean towards vintage and old fashioned names. Do you have any ideas? Also, it would be preferred if the names didn't end in 'n'. Thank you so much! -Shay
The above says it all :D What is the most girliest name you have ever heard or happened across? (Please give just one name) thanks alot ~Chanel
Please help eliminate names for first child! Found out it's a girl :) Names in first comment, and please only eliminate one at a time!
We know Sophia is popular, but we love it. We have a list of middle names we need help narrowing down. Sophia Charlotte, Sophia Juliet, Sophia Catherine, Sophia Genevieve, Sophia Rosalyn, Sophia Caroline, Sophia Vivienne, Sophia Camille, Sophia Rosemarie, Sophia Adelaide, Sophia Penelope.
Names are: Annabelle nn Anna, Emma, Hannah, Holly, Isabella nn Bella, Kendall, Kyla, Lily, Olivia nn Liv, Sienna. I'd appreiciate if you only eliminate ONE ata time.
Please eliminate the one you like least from the list of girl names that I will post in the first comment box. I will try to keep the list updated for you. Please only eliminate one. Thank you! Leticia
Hey guys. I thought this would be a fun poll. Please list your kids' names and ages in the comments. It doesn't matter is they are unborn, 5, 10, or 50. It doesn't matter if you have one child or 12 or more children. I will compile the list at the end two ways. One to see which names are most common, and one to see how the names have changed over time. I need at least 30 comments though, so have fun. Thanks.

After some questioning over what exactly is behind the Dallas stars decision making in their most recent trades, it's safe to say the newest rookies to the team looked pretty good on the ice Wednesday night against the Anaheim Ducks.
The Dallas Stars fell short of a victory losing 5-2, but honestly the actual score does not give the Stars justice for the effort they put in the game. I mean they are experimenting with a whole new line-up and lucky for Dallas, many of the new additions proved to Dallas Thursday night that they're ready to play.
Sure the Ducks took control of the game early on and were heating up the goal, but it still doesn't change the fact the Stars new line-up may be something to keep an eye on for the future.
New youngster to the team, Lane MacDermib scored his first NHL goal in his first game playing with the Stars Thursday. Funny enough, Lane is not the first of the MacDermib family to score a first NHL goal on April 3, 2013. His father, Paul Macdermib also scored his first NHL goal with the Hartford Whalers on this same night 31 years ago.
Overall, the Stars can leave this game with some satisfaction because, really they didn't look too shabby. The Ducks took the lead in the beginning and once this was accomplished, the Stars could not catch up. If the Stars scored, the Ducks scored. It was as if every goal the Stars made triggered the Ducks into scoring almost immediately. If there is anything to point out that the Stars were lacking in it is clearly transition defense, or maybe just keeping a hold of the puck.

The Economic Benefit of Tumacacori and Other National Parks
Printer-friendly versionPDF version
Date: March 6, 2014
A new National Park Service (NPS) report shows that 35,158 visitors to Tumacácori in 2012 spent $1,891,900 in communities near the park. That spending supported 26 jobs in the local area. "Tumacácori is proud to welcome visitors from across the country and around the world," said Superintendent Bob Love.
"We are delighted to share the story of this place and the experiences it provides, and to use the park as a way to introduce visitors to this part of the country and its unique and rich history. National park tourism is a significant driver in the national economy – returning $10 for every $1 invested in the National Park Service – and it's a big factor in our state and local economies as well. We appreciate the partnership and support of our neighbors and are glad to be able to give back by helping to sustain local communities."
The peer-reviewed visitor spending analysis was conducted by U.S. Geological Survey economist Catherine Cullinane Thomas and Christopher Huber, and Lynne Koontz for the National Park Service. The report shows $14.7 billion of direct spending by 283 million park visitors in communities within 60 miles of a national park. This spending supported 243,000 jobs nationally, with 201,000 jobs found in these gateway communities, and had a cumulative benefit to the U.S. economy of $26.75 billion.
According to the report most visitor spending supports jobs in restaurants, grocery and convenience stores (39 percent), hotels, motels and B&Bs (27 percent), and other amusement and recreation (20 percent).
To download the report please visit http://www.nature.nps.gov/socialscience/economics.cfm.
The report includes information for visitor spending at individual parks and by state.

Record HD video via FireWire -- revisited
Anyone know of a utility(not iMovie) to capture video from a miniDV camera, via firewire? I'm interested in using my camcorder as a low grade DVR. Command line would probably be ideal, unless someone has actually built an app for scheduling captures from miniDV cams.

Muchachos Drum & Bugle Corps seeks new members
Vachon, of Litchfield, serves as publicity director for Manchester's Muchachos Drum & Bugle Corps. The group, one of only two remaining active drum and bugle corps in New Hampshire, is holding open rehearsals next Sunday from 12:30 to 5 p.m. at its headquarters in the Brady-Sullivan Tower, 1750 Elm St.
"We're hoping to get as many people as we can to come out," said Vachon. . . . . We've expanded our recruiting area to include all cities and towns in the state and Greater New England."
The band, led by director Al Gagne, has evolved over the past 53 years.
In the early 1960s and mid-1970s, the Muchachos competed on several drum and bugle corps circuits in New England. The Granite State had more than a dozen active drum and bugle corps at the time, with membership in the Muchachos open to individuals up to age 21. Today, the Muchachos has about 40 members.
"I think we reached our peak membership of about 85 members in 1975," said Vachon. "The Muchachos ceased active operations in 1985, due primarily to dropping membership numbers and a lack of operating funds."
The corps remained quiet until the fall of 1996, when Manchester celebrated its 150th anniversary. A group of alumni joined forces in an effort to march one more time down Elm Street, but enough interest was generated to re-establish the corps. The Muchachos are now registered as a 501C3 non-profit group, opening up the age range to include youth and adult members.
The band will begin its 2013 season by marching in the Manchester St. Patrick's Day Parade and the Holyoke, Mass., St. Pat's Parade.
For more information, go to www.muchachos.org.

Buying the Best Car Insurance
- Friday, April 27, 2007
As many of you know, today I serve as a minister at the Antioch Church of Christ in Nashville. However, I have an unusual ministry. I spend my full time traveling around the country presenting the No Debt No sweat! Christian Money Management Seminar at churches and colleges.
But it hasn't always been this way. For over twenty years I owned a business that was located on Nashville's famous Music Row. What a place to work! It's a great area of town. Everywhere you go there are creative people working with the various record labels and creative shops. I love most every thing about the Row, except the driving. Since this is where the country music stars work—it's also where the tourists come. They're everywhere. (Some of the locals call Music Row the Plaid Shorts District.) As much as we appreciate the tourist business in Nashville, driving can be a real problem. Especially when you throw in the homegrown folks who make their share of driving gaffes, too. Over the years, I have had a couple of fender-benders in the area when someone wasn't paying enough attention. Through these regrettable experiences, I've grown to appreciate the value of good car insurance.
One thing I have learned is the essential nature of car insurance coverage. I've learned the hard way that, even if I do everything right, I can still be faced with thousands of dollars of repair bills. And, if I ever should make a major mistake on the road, my insurance may be the only thing standing between us and bankruptcy! So with this as my introduction to the subject, let's talk about what car insurance covers and a little about how it works.
Six Basic Parts of an Auto Policy
A typical car insurance policy may include all, or some, of the following six types of coverage. Usually, each coverage is priced individually. They include:
1) Bodily Injury Liability. This is designed to help protect the policyholder from claims and defense costs if he kills or injures someone.
2) Property Damage Liability. This helps cover damage the policyholder may do to someone else's property. However, this coverage does not cover the policyholder's own property or car.
3) Medical Payments or Personal Injury Protection. Pays on the medical expenses for injuries to the driver and passengers of the insured's car. It may also pay if the insured is injured while riding in someone else's car or while walking.
4) Collision. Designed to cover costs for damage to the policyholder's car if it is in a collision with another vehicle or some other object.
5) Comprehensive Physical Damage. For damage to the insured's car resulting from theft, vandalism, fire, hail, etc.
6) Uninsured or Underinsured Motorist Coverage. For cost related to property damage and injury to the insured by an uninsured or underinsured motorist. This is frequently the coverage that comes into play after a hit-and-run accident.
Of course, read your policy and ask questions, as these are only broad explanations and will vary from policy to policy.
A Few Money Saving Pointers
No matter how I prune and fertilize them, the trees in my backyard simply will not grow money. Without such a "cash crop," saving money has become very important in my life. Following are some money saving tips from experts in the field, as well as some of my personal experiences:
1) Check the Competition. Remember, there are lots of companies selling this stuff. Check around. Compare the prices from four or five companies. You'll find that rates and prices vary quite a lot.

text: Secondly I'm not sure that even if the teacher is experienced he can teach 45 students in one classroom. We usually devide more than 25 students into two or three groups. You ask how you can improve your English. Keep on listening to English programs on TV and on the radio too. Don't worry if you don't understand everything. Just listen and try to immitate them when you teach at school, I mean the pronunciation. In two or three months you'll feel that you understand most of the things they say. You can also find someone and speak Endlish to him. And finally listen to English songs when you have nothing to do. Good luck! I know you are a good teacher. If not you'll be one very soon.

CLIMATE CHANGE AND SEA-LEVEL RISE: A looming threat for global cities and coastal regions
Common Dreams just published a fascinating — and alarming — map of U.S. cities (see above) projected to be flooded by a four-foot rise in sea-levels, based on carbon pollution already in the atmosphere. Additional carbon emissions will lead to greater sea-level rises. The lead author of the map, Dr. Ben Strauss, summed up the outlook as follows: "Hundreds of American cities are already locked into watery futures and we are growing that group very rapidly." Worst hit will be the populous states of Florida, Louisiana, and Texas, followed by North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, New Jersey, New York, and Massachusetts.
Altogether, this four-foot rise in sea levels will submerge more than half of the population in 316 coastal cities and towns (home to 3.6 million) in the lower 48 states. Among the most devastated cities will be Miami and Jacksonville Fla., Sacramento and Long Beach Calif., and Virginia Beach, Va. The larger cities of Boston and New York City will face somewhat less but still substantial risk from climate change. I encourage everyone to examine carefully the original interactive map with its full state-by-state lists of affected U.S. cities here, not to be alarmist, but to get a realistic sense of the future impacts as they are unfolding now.
The other map indicates the flood projections for a sea-level rise of 1.35 meters in New York City. It is from a recent article by William Solecki on "Urban environmental challenges and climate change action in New York City" (Environment and Urbanization 2012 24: 557). Solecki reviews how NYC has begun to define and implement a series of climate actions over the last decade and a half, particularly through the Bloomberg administration's sustainability program, known as PlaNYC. While NYC has taken a leadership role in promoting urban resilience and sustainability planning, its approach has been "largely technocratic and managerial" and constrained by both budgetary and jurisdictional limitations, according to the article.
If a rich city like New York cannot do more in the face of such severe weather events as Hurricane Sandy, I am afraid of the outlook for less affluent localities around the world. Such "extreme" weather events clearly are becoming more common with the onset of global climate change. On the other hand, I am glad that we have begun a discussion about the importance of urban resilience in these circumstances, even if so much remains to be done on so many levels and in so many places. Will our efforts be too little, too late? Time will tell, but for now these ominous trends underscore the urgent need to reduce our carbon emissions.

Lilac - Sensation.
- Starting at: $37.45 - In stock
Questions? (888) 864-7663
Ornamental Shrub with Outstanding Spring Flowers
The Sensation Lilac is a deciduous shrub with an outstanding spring floral display. It would look great as a specimen plant in your yard, or as the most decorative privacy hedge you've ever seen.
In one of his famous poems, Walt Whitman said of Lilacs that every leaf is a "miracle". Once you have a Lilac Sensation in your yard, you'll see how he could feel that way.
A Lilac in your yard is a sweetly-scented breath of spring. It harkens back to carefree days of childhood and the beauty and mystery that is uniquely that of nature.
Once you have a Lilac in your yard, your home will never feel complete again without one.
The Sensation is a particularly lovely cultivar of Lilac, with each lavender flower petal delicately rimmed in pristine white. The flowers cluster together in long panicles that rise from the branches in spring and emit a lusciously sweet scent that will drift through your yard on the slightest breeze.
Your Lilac can grow to 15 feet in height. It has a multi-stemmed, upright growth manner with a spread of about 12 feet. The five inch, heart-shaped leaves are lush and dark green, creating the appearance of a vibrant, healthy shrub even when not in bloom.
Your Sensation Lilac is a boon to the hummingbirds, bees and other pollinators that visit your yard in the spring.
The flowers are hardy and long-lasting in cut floral arrangements, so you can even bring some of that heavenly magic of spring indoors.
A Sensation Lilac is more than just another ornamental shrub to brighten your yard. As Whitman wrote, it's something far more. A Sensation Lilac is a miracle of nature that no home is truly complete without.

* Wildlife appeal

According to TheFourthPeriod.com
Marek Zidlicky is in the final year of his contract and the Ottawa Sun reports the veteran defenseman could sign a new three-year deal with Minnesota.
Zidlicky, who currently has a cap hit of $3.35 million, is expected to receive a raise, be it with the Wild or on the open market this July.
According to the Sun, several teams, including the Senators, have inquired about Zidlicky's availability and if a new contract isn't signed in the coming days, there's a chance the Wild pulls the trigger on a trade.
Zidlicky's new contract could fall within the $4 million per year range.

Most people claim that growing up sucks, and the simple fact that nothing can be done about it can be quite frustrating. Albeit the claims are true, but it's not bad when you keep your passions within the current instead of letting them fade like a trend. Especially when you have a family and a wife that supports your lifestyle and work it's that much easier to over come any type of growing pain.

Bloodstained Ambition: Jose Ramos' Widebody 350z
I first spotted Jose's 350z at Wekfest Long Beach earlier this year and it immediately caught my eye. The uniqueness of the build, the color, and how damn wide it was! I immediately started to follow Jose's build very closely, admiring each and every detail put into it to make it truly one of a kind. After finding out Jose was a native of Southern California I had to ask him if he would give me the opportunity to shoot his build, and Jose couldn't have been more humble in accepting.

Beauty in Simplicity: Derek Lum's Clean & Static Mazda RX-8
In the last few years there has been an emphasis across all of the car scenes to "keep it clean," which has manifested itself in the form of an OEM+ style of modification. Personally it's a style I appreciate and attempt to emulate in my own vehicles because it's how many think the vehicles should have looked from the factory. It's amazing what a drop, wheels, badge-less grill, some OE Euro or JDM parts, a little bit of body work/shaving, and an interior swap will do for a vehicle. Sure there is a place for lip kits, over fenders, wings and custom fabrication, but something about an OEM+ modified car seems so… pure.

When it comes to cars it always hits home when someone gives it their all in a build. Whether they live next door, across the coast, or in this case across the globe in Indonesia, every person that allocates their time in order to put together a show-stopping whip deserves a round of applause.

Think you are in a perfect relationship? There is no such thing as the perfect relationship, and everybody knows that. Sooner or later, every couple will encounter relationship issues and problems that will certainly make them question their compatibility, but the good news is that you can overcome all of these bothersome issues, with a bit of luck and effort. The longer the relationship or marriage is, the more likely you are to experience different problems throughout your emotional journey. That being said, here is a deeper insight into some of the most common problems that may occur in relationships, and how to successfully overcome them:
1. The Spouses Express Their Love Differently
Different people have different ways of expressing their love, emotions and appreciation towards the other one, and some people simply prefer to express it through their actions rather than through the classic "I love you". However, we all want to be reassured of the other one's love every now and then, and we sometimes end up telling our spouse or girlfriend/boyfriend that they do not tell us they love us, as often or as intense as we would like them to.
In order to overcome this common yet harmless problem, it is important to understand that there are five main ways through which people tend to express their love and gratitude: some do it through physical touching, others through words and terms of endearment, while others simply love to make gifts. On the other hand, some people do not like to state their feelings or to buy flowers – instead, they invite you to spend quality time with them by buying tickets to the opera or cinema, or by scheduling a vacation together, while other people simply express their love through different "acts of service", so to call them.
2. Being Too Possessive
This is yet another common relationship problem these days, and it usually goes hand in hand with jealousy and lack of trust. It has occurred to most of us at least once to be in a relationship or even marriage where the other one has asked us to give up our personal friends in order to spend more time with them. While most of the time, people ask us to give up such personal connection because they want us to be by their side, in other cases they do it because they do not trust us and they are afraid of being cheated on.
It is extremely important for them to understand that being too possessive can and certainly will wreak havoc on the marriage or relationship, sooner or later. Everybody should have the right to spend quality time with friends, relatives and other people that are dear to their heart, without worrying about the fact that their partner or spouse will hold them responsible for this.
3. Money Issues
Financial issues are one of the most common causes of break-ups and divorce these days, along with cheating. There are all sorts of financial problems that can arise throughout the course of a relationship, from rent and monthly car payments to tuition, childcare and what not. On the other hand, one of the spouses may also end up spending a lot more than they are supposed to, and this can become a problem especially if the two of you have decided to have a joint money fund. It is important to discuss these matters in order to overcome it, and if you believe that the only way to solve the financial problems would be by having two different bank accounts rather than sharing the same one, then by all means – do so!
4. Spending Too Much Time Apart
When it comes to the amount of time that you spend apart and together, it must be said that balance is the key – spending too much time with the other one can become annoying and even frustrating for some people, as everybody needs to spend some time alone all by themselves, while spending too much time apart can also drift both of you away. Not once did it happen for couples to break up or for marriages to end in divorce simply because one of the parties failed to understand their counterpart's need for privacy and time alone. As human beings, we tend to drift away and to back off when we feel that our privacy and intimacy are under attack.

Now you can stand up and say these are my expectations. Keep pushing her toward getting off the fence.

Please remember that the words that come out of her mouth are meaningless. Actions are the only thing you can believe.
((((and strength))))
While you are out... do you know if she's has had OM around your child in the past? Is it a concern that she could have OM over while you are out?
And definitely what william said. He nailed it in that post. Out the A to family members and get their assistance if you are going to have a chance here. She's still in the A. She is still not choosing the M because of that fact. It's all still there. She didn't go over to AP's place, but mentally she was there even if physically she was at your place.
Time to get rough my friend. As william said, keep pushing the consequences of her affair into her face. Let her see those consequences. You will start to feel stronger each time as you take control.
During your evening of conversation she took the path that allowed her to keep both of you hanging:
a) If she left then she would only have OM becuase you had made it clear that if she left then you would separate
b) If she stayed she kept you AND the OM. She can smooth the waters with him later by saying that her horrible husband had forced her to stay.
So what did she do?
You need to give her a date by which she has to swing one way or 'tuther
But you do seem much stronger. But she's still playing you
[This message edited by mozzchops at 10:58 AM, May 8th (Thursday)]
@william: I agree that her 'choice' was just to do nothing/keep us both hanging. I get the tactic of making her think her life with me is already lost. No, the OM doesn't have a partner (other than my WW ). As for exposing the A - I completely agree that they thrive in the dark but I have my own reservations (about motives/not being able to take it back/affecting future relationships should my WW & I ever truly reconcile). That said, I have now told my parents (when I thought she was leaving me yesterday) though my WW doesn't yet know that (her reaction will probably be to hit the roof and claim she's going). Interesting you suggest visiting a lawyer together. Think that's a first. Most people have suggested clueing myself up but NOT telling my WW. I wonder what others here think? I don't THINK the OM has been in our house though anything is possible. As for my social plans, it's a risk I have to take, isn't it?
@UKGirl: Not sure I've thanked you for your input. Thanks. Re exposing the A, her mum & dad know but only what I knew on D-Day 1, i.e. it was a 3/4 month EA but only one night of sex (oh, hang on, I did tell her mum about the texts I found on D-Day 2, so I think she does know it was more than one night). I plan on telling my WW exactly what you said later - that the kindest way is to kill the A fast. As for the OM's history, well, three divorces, that about says it. All the exes' faults, of course (my WW seems intent on believing everything he ever told her, e.g. he hasn't had sex in years, he's had a vasectomy etc).
@FrmrBH80124: Thank you but I don't feel that great about myself just yet, the way today's gone (my WW acting like everything's back to normal).
@tushnurse: Thanks. I don't believe she wants to leave me but she told me herself that she 'can't' leave the OM either. It's really nice to have your 16 year relationship/7 year marriage judged 'equal' by the one you love to a 3/4 month sordid affair.
@yearsofpain25: Absolutely he's been around my boy. That's how we know him, through the kids. As I said to william, yes it's a concern she could have him over while I'm out but what on earth can I do about that?? How do you fully 180 if you can't let your WS out of your sight??? (Plans tonight may be off now anyway - friend says might be better for him another day)
@allatsea: You're absolutely right but ultimatums have always struck me as a bad idea - generally. What does everyone else think of this?
[This message edited by saveus at 11:18 AM, May 8th (Thursday)]
keep telling her you are sorry that she has made the choice to be with the other man and that her choice of "her secrets, her affairs, her lies, and her cheating" over you, your family, your child, your marriage, and your relationship has consequences. one of those consequences is losing her family, the marriage, the relationship, and the lifestyle she has become accustomed to.
Think that's a first. Most people have suggested clueing myself up but NOT telling my WW. I wonder what others here think?
Absolutely see a lawyer for a consultation whether you file now, soon, or never. Too many times did someone here think they should wait until filing or that they could have an amicable divorce without lawyers only to be screwed over by their WS who convinced them not to file, not to see lawyers yet, and went behind their back to make sure they got everything. It's sick to think that some of these WS were parents who just screwed over their own children to get a little more money or benefits.
You're absolutely right but ultimatums have always struck me as a bad idea - generally. What does everyone else think of this?
It might be necessary and pushing your WW off the fence and on to R OR you will get your answer once and for all that she is choosing OM over your M. If you think living in limbo and watching her talk, flirt, and go on dates with him while still married to you is worse than getting a D, an ultimatum would help you more than hurt you. Do it when you're ready but keep in mind what others have said - the longer you wait, the less likely R is going to be.

You should talk to a lawyer privately so you know your rights and responsibilities which will give you negotiating power should divorce occur.
She doesn't need to know that you have consulted. I am a lawyer in the US, and the first thing I told such joint "\clients" was that I would not represent either of them if there was even a hint of differing interests which there ALWAYS is in a divorce sooner or later.
She won't believe a word from any lawyer you have chosen, anyway, so the chances of her getting a push off the fence that way are small. This isn't from personal,experience, but rather from 30+ years on the other side of the desk.
BTW, damn good work in your recent encounter. Even if her head is still up her ass, she'd have to be wholly dense to not see that yours is on top of your neck held high where it
Damn iPad keys have me hitting too many commas. Sorry.
Great work so far. Despite our tough talk we all know those first steps out are so extremely hard to take so the progress you made yesterday is immense!
Im pressed for time so I want to address only a couple of issues:
Yes exposure MIGHT make future reconciliation harder. BUT
Exposure is still your best tool to make reconciliation a possibility. To refer back to my burning house analogy: Worrying about the future effects of exposure is like banning the firemen from entering the house unless they take off their boots because you worry the hardwood floors will get damaged.
Just expose on the right grounds: You expose to stakeholders in the marriage and to people that might have positive effects on your wife. You ask these people to help in making your wife see the mistake she is making, but also ask them not to push her away.
About yesterday.
Look If someone punches you in the face but then says sorry, then punches you again but says sorry and promises never to do it again, then punches you again
What carries more weight? The punches or the promises and excuses? How often do you just stand there before you decide its a good idea to get out of the reach of those punches?
Yesterday your WW punched you repeatedly, excused herself repeatedly and then punched you again repeatedly. You like a good fighter just took the punches. That was OK yesterday but for today get out of her reach.
Until and unless she very clearly and verbally commits to the marriage on her own free will
You move on.
Make that clear to her: She has to commit. That means no more pining for OM in front of you.
Until and unless she does the above
YOU keep on getting your info on how to progress with ending the marriage. No drama, no swooning and moaning. Just a determined purpose to your actions. Make this clear to her not repeatedly but make it clear she is totally free to do what she wants, but until and unless she verbally commits
you are out of here.
About clueing up
The BS mantra has been, is and will always be:
Pray for sun prepare for rain.
Its better to have knowledge of your situation that you might not need rather than not knowing what you need to know.
The way my WW is today, you'd think she doesn't have a care in the world.
So stop letting her not have a care. Keep pushing her off the fence. Let her know that her actions have consequences. Let her know that your parents know. Start asking her consequence type questions. When would be a good time for her to start IC/MC sessions? What time tonight would be a good time to start drafting an NC letter? What time tonight are you going to give me your passwords? Of course she's not going to answer these questions but keep pointing out to her every time she says no, say that since
she has made the choice to be with the other man and that her choice of "her secrets, her affairs, her lies, and her cheating" over you, your family, your child, your marriage, and your relationship has consequences. one of those consequences is losing her family, the marriage, the relationship, and the lifestyle she has become accustomed to.
Nothing less than answers to your questions are acceptable. She chooses to stay, she has to choose to meet the needs of the family. Otherwise, you press on to dissolve the M.

Lawyer - NO WAY on a joint trip to an attorney. Go don't tell her you are going, get educated. Do this so you can make smart decisions. Then when you feel you have had enough and do ultimately lay down the ultimatum me or him, you can say my Lawyer says I will get XYZ, and then she will realize that it is very real to you, and you are prepared to move forward, WITHOUT her.
Ultimatums - Your right it's hard to give them, and generally are a bad idea, but you have certain things in life that are OK, and are NOT OK. We live by certain rules, and our spouses having lovers is one of those rules where there really is NO wiggle room.
She needs to know that you are NOT going to allow her to have both. (Personally I wouldn't make this ultimatum until I see a lawyer).
I struggled for months, and knew my H was cheating, but I had NO proof. So that gave me time to get things in order, so when I finally did have proof, I could say stay or leave, but if you stay you have to X Y Z, and if you don't I'm done, and you will be going anyway.
Actions have to meet consequences before the fog really clears. For my situation it was ultimately the continued breaking of NC that was the big decision maker.
You are still very early on in this, and it takes a while for your head to stop spinning and to find your footing again. But I see you getting clearer, and stronger.
@nekonamida: Much appreciated. I'm trying my best.
@yearsofpain25: Pushing my WW off that fence is my goal for this evening. She's in full evasion mode. She just tried to snuggle up to me & I made it clear I wasn't having it (and made clear my reasons). Telling her my parents know will certainly provoke a response, that much I promise you.
[This message edited by saveus at 12:17 PM, May 8th (Thursday)]
The way my WW is today, you'd think she doesn't have a care in the world.
Though this is worse than usual since most fog is cleared once the affair has been discovered.
You need to make it clear that there are consequences and one of them is that other people are going to know about this. If she wanted it kept a secret, I guess it is too late for that now.
Ultimatums are tough if they cannot be carried out. It is best not to make any unless you fully intend to carry through with them.
If it were me, I would see a lawyer right now and alone, not with her. In a sense, you can't think of her as your wife because you cannot trust her. Anything a lawyer tells you and your wife could go straight to the OM.
Most likely everything you say goes to the OM anyway, so keep that in mind.
Stay strong, which is not at all easy.
But you gave her an ultimatum, if you leave to go see him we are done.
You put your foot down, as much as it was a sort of half ultimatum because she's so foggy she actually sees the lame excuses she's giving you as valid.
OM is sick, she is torn, she is confused. As Abonddad said, you allowed her to steer you in this direction, so now she didn't leave but she hasn't broken it off either.
Again, don't issue a threat if you can't carry it out. Have you talked to OM? A man that can text another man's wife to come over while he's sitting next to her has got major b*lls.

Any suggestions on chain lube for the winter? And if it's wax based can I switch back to non wax based if need be?
By Charlie on Nov 26, 2013 | Reply
I generally wear the following:
– One fewer or lighter layer than what you would normally (you should be a little cold for the first 5-10 minutes biking). My general guide is a light jacket (or thin windproof/waterproof jacket) between 30 degrees and 50 degrees. For <30 degrees, a regular winter jacket.
– Gloves if it's 35 degrees or below
– A thin hat under my helmet if it's 30 degrees or below
– If it's raining or snowing (or the road is slushy or has a lot of water on it), waterproof rain pants over my regular pants
– My sneakers are relatively waterproof. If it's snowing and I expect there to be a lot of snow on the ground when I'm walking, I wear waterproof work boots.
That's it really. With the exception of the waterproof rain pants, none of this is bicycling-specific gear.

Merino wool Buffs. Two of 'em. One on neck, scootched up to cover face. One on head, doubled up. Both overlap ears. Way more comfy – and chic – than balaclava.
By BostonBiker on Nov 26, 2013 | Reply
@ashley I don't switch to another kind of lube, just use tri-flow all winter. however I do wipe my chain down more, and re-lube after salty/slushy days.
See the winter bike maintenance guide in the side bar for more tips, but basically you just need to wipe your bike down a lot more.

Agree, I use triflow all winter and am also big on wiping after fresh snow and salt.

October 26, 2014
HUNTINGTON, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- A woman is facing felony charges and more than a decade in jail for selling her mom's car for drug money.
Amanda Terry, 32, of Salt Rock, is charged with forgery and obtaining money under false pretenses.
West Virginia State Police say on September 17, Terry took her mother's 2006 Jeep Liberty and forged the title, by signing "Gift from Mother" on it.
The next day, State Police say Terry took it to a pawn shop and pawned it for $8,960 -- without her mother's consent.
A week later, State Police talked to Terry and she admitted that she knew the vehicle was not a gift, but pawned it for child support money and to support her pain pill addiction.

How can you top a cast with musical stars like Richard Burton, Julie Andrews and Robert Goulet? You can't, so you might enjoy "Camelot". My favorite song from the show is Robert Goulet singing "If Ever I Should Leave You". You will find many great songs in "Camelot" that you'll be humming later. There are so few great musicals, we are so lucky to have this in the KCLS. It does seem to be buried treasure though. As of today, July 29, 2014, there are 7 copies in the KCLS and only one is out with a patron. For me personally, this is like seeing and hearing and old friend. Classic Broadway Show tunes by 3 great stars of the stage. Thanks for reading the above.

Windows Intune users: Final Windows 8 bits are available for download
Summary: Subscribers of Microsoft's Windows Intune cloud management and security service are able to download the Windows 8 bits a few days earlier than scheduled.
Microsoft is continuing to slowly expand the pool of existing Windows users to whom the final, released-to-manufacturing (RTM) Windows 8 bits are available.
The latest group who can now grab the RTM bits, as of August 30, are Windows Intune subscribers. (Thanks to reader @timkefford, who alerted me to the availability today. His screen shot is below.
Microsoft officials confirmed availability, noting that Intune users are getting access to the bits a few days earlier than originally scheduled. Intune users were slated to get the Windows 8 RTM bits on September 1 -- the same day that volume-license customers without Software Assurance are supposed to get them. (Volume licensees without SA can purchase Windows 8 through Microsoft Volume License Resellers as of September 1, Microsoft officials have said.)
Windows Intune is Microsoft's cloud-based PC management and security service. Intune users get rights to current and future versions of Windows — similar to what they'd get if they signed up for Microsoft's Software Assurance volume-licensing program. Microsoft delivered the third iteration of Windows Intune earlier this summer.
It's rather ironic, but the on-premises piece of Windows Intune doesn't yet support Windows 8 and won't until some time after Windows 8 is generally available. (Thanks to @phillippmuller for reminding me of that fact.)
General availability of Windows 8 for those that don't yet have the RTM bits is slated for October 26. The Windows 8 launch will be October 25 in New York City.
Next week, on September 4, Microsoft is slated to make the Windows Server 2012 bits available for evaluation and purchase worldwide by customers. On that day, Microsoft will be holding a virtual launch for Windows Server 2012, kicking off at 8 am PT/11 am ET.

Pre-Departure: Nos Vemos America.
Greetings everyone! My name's Zak Suhar, and attend the University of Mount Union in Alliance, Ohio studying Management, Spanish, and Environmental Science. I feel extremely honored to be named one of the Grand Trunk Student Ambassadors for this upcoming spring semester, and look forward to sharing my experiences with you. I first would like to congratulate the other contestants, and compliment all of the great video submissions. Very soon my plane departs from Chicago O'Hare for Alicante, Spain where I plan to study at the University of Alicante in the Valencian Community.
Alicante is a Mediterranean port city in the southeastern part of Spain, which has a sunny climate, beautiful beaches, tall mountains, and rich culture and nightlife. I plan on swimming, sailing, and enjoying the four-mile-long beach of San Juan, considered one of the finest in all of Spain. Abroad, I will be taking nine intensive Spanish language courses, a Madrid field study, and culture immersion courses like Dances of Spain, Spanish Cuisine, and Sailing. All of these classes I hope to share with you in detail along with the excursions I plan to take, but first I would like to tell you a little more about where I am from.
I grew up my whole life in Cedarburg, Wisonsin, a small, historic town nestled along Cedar Creek, located north of Milwaukee. Before our family settled there, we lived in Indiana, where I was born, and Ohio where most of my extended family resides. I grew up playing sports and living in a competitive family having two older brothers, and football is what brought me to Mount Union in the first place. Other than sports, I have a deep interest in sustainability, social good, innovation, and I hope to one-day work for a green business showcasing my thirst for and environmental justice. I like to be athletic in the outdoors and enjoy rock climbing, hiking, slacklining, and kayaking.
I also have developed a great deal of interest in the Spanish language and culture having taken classes since middle school. The places, festivals, and overall way of life I cannot wait to experience as I am immersed in the Spanish community. Coupling this Spanish interest with athletics, I hope to attend several futbol matches, basketball games, and view some of the lines world-renowned climber Chris Sharma has scaled.
Like Grand Trunk, I share an incredible passion for the outdoors and am adamant about protecting our wild and natural places here on this earth. This reason along with many other similarities between my lifestyle and values is why I feel I can add value to the brand as a Grand Trunk Student Ambassador. One thing I am really excited about is being a carbon balanced traveler as well! At Mount Union, I serve on a sustainability committee and my supervisors bought me carbon offsets as a gift for leaving.
Ultimately I love encountering new experiences and I define these experiences as travels that stay with you for the rest of your life. I believe travel can add value to our lives like nothing else. Travel teaches compassion, humility, and a desire realize the interconnectedness of our experiences here on this planet. For me, what I enjoy most is sharing these connections through the images produced from my journeys and documenting their stories on my blog.
- Zak Suhar
