Chief Jackson to retire; Hoskins named interim chief
Posted Date:
Lexington Fire Chief Keith Jackson, the first African American to lead Lexington's firefighters, has announced his plan to retire Jan. 9, Mayor Jim Gray said today.
Gray, who appointed Jackson Chief in 2012, said he will be missed. "Keith has been a strong partner in our work to strengthen our firefighting force. He leaves behind a Division that is fully staffed and fully equipped."
Jackson said, "It has truly been a blessing to lead the exceptional men and women of the Division of Fire and Emergency Services for the last five years. I am proud to say that during that time we have improved the quality of service we provide to citizens and increased the efficiency and effectiveness of our operations. As I leave the helm as Chief, I am proud to leave a legacy of: strong leadership, fiscal responsibility and putting people first."
Gray appointed Harold Hoskins interim chief, effective Jan. 10. A 33-year veteran of the force, Hoskins currently serves as Assistant Chief of Operations, overseeing Emergency Medical Services, Hazmat and Firefighting. In addition, he maintains the fleet. "He is well positioned to offer advice as we put together our budget for next year," Gray said. Hoskins is a native of Harlan County and he holds a bachelor's degree from Eastern Kentucky University.
"I am honored that Mayor Gray has placed his confidence in me to lead the Division of Fire and Emergency Services," said Hoskins, who has said he is not interested in the permanent chief position. "It has been my privilege to serve this great organization for more than 30 years in a variety of roles, and I look forward to both the challenges and the responsibilities of leading the fire department as Interim Chief; and continuing the tradition of service that we have established over the years."
Over a 25-year career, Jackson worked his way up the ladder, serving as firefighter, paramedic and, when he was a major, supervising the hazardous materials team. "He led by example, always walking the talk," Gray said. Jackson made major improvements in the Division, reducing overtime costs; improving morale; improving the organizational structure with daily reports and quarterly meetings with the executive and command staff; instituting a leadership development program; and increasing the size of the force to meet the needs of a growing population.
Gray named Jackson Interim Chief in March 2011. He was appointed to the permanent position in June, 2012.

This is a Continuation-in-Part of application Ser. No. 07/808,614, filed Dec. 17, 1991, now abandoned.
1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates to inductance measurement equipment, and more particularly to an inductive proximity sensor of the type having a coil, means for feeding the coil, and means for measuring and processing signals capable of yielding a response in the presence of an object to be detected.
2. Description of the Related Art
Inductive proximity sensors utilizing a resonant circuit have been proposed (see U.S. Pat. No. 4,219,740.) The operating principle of this type of sensor is as follows: in the absence of a metal object in proximity to the sensor, the measuring circuit in the form of a resonance-type oscillator oscillates at maximum amplitude. The proximity of a metal object causes losses through eddy currents induced in that object and consequently attenuation of the resonance amplitude. A comparison of this amplitude with a reference value therefore makes it possible to detect the presence of metal objects. The great drawback of this type of sensor is its sensitivity to internal losses of the resonant circuit (ohmic losses in the coil of the circuit, hysteretic losses in the magnetic circuit of the coil). Such losses are, in fact, dependent upon the temperature, and this is a cause of inaccuracy in the detection results.
It is an object of this invention to provide an improved inductive proximity sensor which eliminates these drawbacks.
To this end, in the inductive proximity sensor according to the present invention, of the type initially mentioned, the feeding means are arranged for supplying the coil with a periodic current of a period T, the current delivered by the feeding means to the coil flowing in the latter for a duration T1 less than T and having a value of substantially zero for the remainder (T-T1) of the period, and the means for measuring and processing the signals are arranged to yield the response in the presence of the object to be detected for the aforementioned remaining duration (T-T1) of the period.
For a better understanding of the invention and further features thereof, reference is made to the following detailed description of the invention to be read in connection with the accompanying drawings, wherein:
FIG. 1 is a basic diagram of the sensor according to the first preferred embodiment.
FIG. 2 is a time graph of the voltages and currents relating to the diagram of FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is an enlarged detail of FIG. 2 pertaining to the voltage induced at the terminals of the coil of FIG. 1;
FIG. 4 is a block diagram of a sensor in a first preferred embodiment of the invention;
FIG. 5 is a time graph of the voltages and currents relating to the diagram of FIG. 4;
FIG. 6 is a block diagram of a second preferred embodiment of the invention;
FIG. 7 is a block diagram of a third preferred embodiment of the invention;
FIG. 8 is a time graph of signals S4, S5, and SI1 relating to the third preferred embodiment of FIG. 7;
FIG. 9 is a diagram of the filter means shown in FIG. 7;
FIG. 10 is a diagram of a fourth preferred embodiment of the sensor;
FIG. 11 is a time graph showing the voltages and currents relating to the fourth preferred embodiment; and
FIG. 12 is a time graph showing the integrals taken of the decaying magnetic fields in the fourth preferred embodiment.
Referring now to the drawings, where the showings are for the purpose of describing preferred embodiments of the invention and not for limiting same, the operation and elements of the inductive proximity sensor will be described.
FIG. 1 is a basic diagram of the sensor according to the first preferred embodiment. One of the terminals of a coil 2 of the sensor is connected to the ground of the power supply, while the other terminal is connected to a constant voltage E across a switch I1 controlled by a signal SI1.
FIG. 2 is a time graph of the voltages and currents relating to the diagram of FIG. 1. Control signal SI1 causes switch I1, to close when it is at a high potential H and to open when it is at a low potential B. Thus switch I1 is controlled periodically at a period T; it is closed during an interval T1, and open during an interval T-T1. A current i passing through the coil is therefore set up according to FIG. 2(b). FIG. 2(c) depicts the voltage at the terminals of the coil.
An enlargement (FIG. 3) of this voltage curve during the interval of zero current in the coil shows that the amplitude of that voltage is quite different when a metal object is situated near the sensor.
This phenomenon is explained by the fact that the variation of the current in the coil during interval T1 causes induced currents in the metal object. After the forced suppression of the current in the coil through opening of switch I1, the induced currents in the metal object continue to flow, inducing a voltage at the terminals of the coil. The advantage of this method of detection is the slight dependence upon the signal measured as a function of the temperature; for the voltage induced in the coil does not depend upon the resistance of the latter but only upon the intensity of the current induced in the metal object.
FIG. 4 is a block diagram of a sensor in a first preferred embodiment of the invention and FIG. 5 is a time graph of the voltages and currents relating to the block diagram of FIG. 4. Here coil 2 is connected in parallel with a resistor 4, the resistive value of which is about 50 times that of coil 2. The task of resistor 4 is to attenuate the oscillations due to switching. Owing to its high value, resistor 4 does not influence the measurement of the induced voltage. Controlled switches I2 and I3, with their control signals SI2 and SI3, allow measurement of the induced voltage only during interval T2, when current i in coil 2 is substantially nil. The induced voltage thus processed is sent to an amplifier 5. The output voltage of amplifier 5 is compared with a reference value, whereby the proximity of a metal object can be detected.
A second preferred embodiment is shown in FIG. 6, the coil of the sensor has an intermediate output M which separates it into two parts 2a and 2b. Resistors 4a and 4b perform the same attenuating function as resistor 4 in FIG. 4. Control signals SI1, SI2, and SI3 are identical to those in FIG. 5.
During interval T1, the current flows in part 2a of the coil. The opening of switch I1 brings about induced voltages in coil parts 2a and 2b. In view of the winding direction, these induced voltages have opposite phases. Part 2b, farther away from the metal object than part 2a, yields a lower induced voltage, so that the resultant induced voltage Ei is other than zero.
In the presence of a disturbing magnetic field, on the other hand, the partial induced voltages in parts 2a and 2b are practically equal but of opposite polarity, thus yielding a resultant induced voltage Ei of substantially zero. This modification makes the sensor virtually insensitive to outside disturbances.
FIG. 7 shows a third preferred embodiment of the invention. Referring to FIG. 7, control signal SI1 is obtained by a combination of signals S4 and S5. Signal S4 of a period T4 is transmitted to the clock input CK of a first flip-flop D1. The Q output of flip-flop D1 is connected to the clock input CK of a second flip-flop D2. Therefore, the output S5 of the second flip-flop D2 has a period T that is four times as great as T4. The signals S4 and S5 are combined by an AND-gate to yield the control signal SI1 of the sensor.
FIG. 8 is the time graph of signals S4, S5, and SI1. In this third preferred embodiment, control signal SI1 makes it possible to create a pause interval P and an operational interval S. The pause interval created has a dual advantage: first, it allows the average consumption of the sensor to be reduced; and second, it permits evaluation of the DC component (offset) introduced by amplifier 5. For eliminating the DC component introduced by amplifier 5, output A1 of this amplifier is connected to a filter means 6, to generate an output signal A2. This filter means may be simply constructed with the aid of a capacitor and a resistor, as illustrated in FIG. 9.
FIG. 10 shows a fourth preferred embodiment of the invention. The inductive proximity sensor, which is placed near the metallic object, has four switches I10, I20, I30 and I40, controlling the current flowing through inductor 2 and resistor 4. As before, the resistive value of the resistor 4 is large, and therefore, the resistor is only used to attenuate the oscillations due to switching.
The output of the sensor is fed through switch I2 to form signal A. When switch I3 is open, signal A is fed into amplifier 5 to form signal gA, which is signal A amplified by gain factor g. Signal Xe is formed by directly sampling the output of one of the following switches: switch I5, which directly passes signal gA; or switch I6, which passes the inverse of signal gA formed in amplifier 15 with a gain of -1; or switch I7, which provides a grounded signal. Control of the sampling performed by signals SI5, SI6 and SI7, which control switches I5, I6 and I7, respectively.
A low-pass filter 16, which has resistance Rf and capacitance Cf, filters the offset voltage in the signal Xe. The filtered signal Xs is compared to a reference voltage Eref in the comparator 17. The output of the comparator indicates the presence or absence of a metallic object in the vicinity.
In this fourth preferred embodiment, the inductor 2 and the attenuating resistor 4 are used as bipolar type elements, i.e., current flows in both directions through the elements. The current paths are controlled by the four switches I10, I20, I30 and I40. When the control signals SI10, SI20, SI30 and SI40, have a high voltage (H), the switch is closed to allow current to flow. The switches are open when the control signal has a low voltage (B).
By controlling the opening and closing of the switches, a supply of bipolar power is formed. This fourth preferred embodiment has two advantages that the first preferred embodiment lacked: first, the rapid cancellation of the current by reversal of the voltage at the terminals of the inductor causes greater induced current in the target object, therefore the response obtained is greater; second, by switching off the switch I30 when the current in the coil is practically zero, the over-voltage due to the switching off is limited.
FIG. 11 shows the timing diagram for controlling the specific switches and the output signals formed. During each cycle of period T, there are three duration periods: duration period T1 for application of the power supply; a pause duration period T0 ; and a duration period T2 for measuring and processing the signals.
The first period T1 is composed of two parts: period T11 and T12. Switch I2 is open to isolate the sensing circuit from the amplification circuit. Switch I3 is closed to ground the input terminal of the amplifier 5. During period T11, switches I10 and I20 are closed and switches I30 and I40 are open. A current flows through the inductor 2 in the direction indicated by the arrow 20.
The next interval is period T12 where switches I10 and I20 are open and switches I30 and I40 are closed. The voltage Ei across the terminals of the inductor 2 is quickly reversed, which results in a quick cancellation of the current i in the inductor. The current in the inductor 2 is practically zero after the period T12. Switch I30 is opened to disconnect the coil from the power supply source. As emphasized before, the rapid cancellation of the current i by reversal of the voltage Ei at the terminals of the inductor causes greater induced current in the target object.
Period T0 is a pause duration to allow the voltage spike in the inductor 2 to decay. This period T0 is initiated by opening switch I30.
The measurement period T2 begins with the closing of switch I2 and opening switch I3. The period T2 is composed of two periods T21 and T22. The signal A is amplified by amplifier 5 with a gain g. The resulting signal is signal gA, which contains an offset voltage.
During period T21, switch I5 is closed and switch I7 is opened. Switch I6 remains open. The decaying voltage signal, which is amplified, in the inductor 2 forms the first part of output signal Xe. After period T21 is over, switch I5 is opened and switch I7 is closed.
During period T22, switch I6 is closed and switch I7 is opened. Switch I5 remains open. The voltage signal A, which is continuing to decay and has a negative gain by passing through amplifier 15 with gain -1, forms the next part of output signal Xe. After period T22 is over, switch I6 is opened and switch I7 is closed to supply a ground signal.
During period T2, the signal Xe is passed through the low-pass filter 16 to form the signal Xs. This final signal Xs is compared to a reference voltage Eref in the comparator 17 to detect the presence of a metallic object.
The fourth preferred embodiment has less temperature dependence and also less sensitivity to electromagnetic disturbances than the first preferred embodiment. When the signal A at the output of the sensor is practically independent of temperature, its amplitude is relatively weak. For an elongated target, the signal A has a magnitude of some mV for a supply voltage of 5 volts. Therefore, the amplification gain g of amplifier 5 is important. As a result, signal gA at the output of the amplifier has an offset, which is not negligible with respect to the signal, that is susceptible to changing with temperature. Furthermore, signal gA has sufficiently great sensitivity to electromagnetic disturbances.
Using the two periods T21 and T22, the sensor allows the two aforementioned problems to be resolved at the same time. In fact, the surface of signal Xe in practically independent of the offset at the output of amplifier 5: ##EQU1##
The exponential variation of signal gA being given as a function of time: ##EQU2## Referring to FIG. 12, the diagram shows each of the integrals with reference to the decaying magnetic field being measured. The second integral is approximately zero due to the nearly completed decay of the magnetic field.
High frequency electromagnetic disturbances are eliminated by low-pass filter 16. The low frequency electromagnetic disturbances (50-60 Hz) cause an effect analogous to that of the offset of amplifier 5 because of the large intervals (20-16.7 ms) with respect to the distance between the periods T21 and T22 (25 μs). Consequently, the low frequency electromagnetic disturbances have practically no influence on the output signal Xs.
Although the invention has been described and illustrated with particularity, it is intended to be illustrative of preferred embodiments. It is understood that the disclosure has been made by way of example only. Numerous changes in the combination and arrangements of the parts, steps and features can be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention, as hereinafter claimed.

The Tobacco-Free Policy was approved by the college's Board of Trustees at its August 2015 meeting on the Decatur campus.
ECCC will join 10 other community colleges in the state of Mississippi in adopting either a smoke-free or tobacco-free campus policy. Smoking has been prohibited in buildings on the East Central campus since 1996.
East Central's Tobacco-Free Policy will prohibit all tobacco products, including smoke-emanating (or electronic) and smokeless products, on all campuses, including buildings, housing, community areas, parking lots, outdoor athletics venues, privately-owned vehicles while on campus, and college owned vehicles, regardless of location. The policy applies to all students, faculty, and staff, and those visiting or conducting business on the ECCC main campus or other college site.
The policy is a result of the college's 2020 Vision strategic plan, which was adopted in 2013 after input from students, employees, and members of the communities that the college serves.
"One of the action plans to fulfill our vision for the future is to promote student and employee wellness initiatives, services, and resources that will create a campus culture of health and wellness," said ECCC President Dr. Billy Stewart. "There are obvious health risks associated with those who smoke and use tobacco products, but also those who are exposed to second-hand smoke. This policy will help us to provide a healthier learning environment not only for our students and employees, but our campus visitors."
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that cigarette smoking is the leading cause of preventable death in the United States, causing more than 480,000 deaths each year, with 42,000 of those from second-hand smoke exposure. More than 16 million people in the United States alone are currently living with a disease caused by smoking, according to the CDC.
The process to adoption of the ECCC Tobacco-Free Policy began in February 2015 when the college received a $5,000 grant from the Washington D.C.-based American Legacy Foundation—now known as Truth Initiative—to fund the initiative, including pre-policy assessments and surveys, education programs, cessation information, and other communication initiatives. Truth Initiative is the nation's largest non-profit public health organization dedicated to making tobacco use a thing of the past.
The college's annual Survey of Campus Climate administered in April was used to gather input from faculty, staff, and students regarding tobacco use and a tobacco-free campus. The majority of those responding strongly supported the establishment of a tobacco-free campus at East Central Community College.
"Based on the results of that survey, our own research on the dangers of tobacco use, and a look at similar policies at other colleges and universities, the decision was made to move forward with adoption of the Tobacco-Free Policy and seek board approval," explained Stewart.
East Central's Vice President for Instruction Dr. Teresa Houston is leading a Tobacco-Free Ad-Hoc Committee on campus that has been managing development and implementation of the initiative. Those efforts have included development of the policy, assessment of tobacco-related issues on campus, encouraging feedback from the campus community, developing plans for tobacco education and cessation efforts, and identifying strategies to encourage an overall culture of wellness on and off campus.
The fall semester is being devoted to making faculty, staff, and students and local communities aware of the new Tobacco-Free Policy, providing education on the health issues associated with tobacco use, and offering tobacco cessation information. Among the activities planned include professional development opportunities led by wellness and tobacco-use experts, participation in the Great American Smokeout in November, and smokers' anonymous meetings.
Stewart said that other initiatives are being considered or are underway to provide a safe and healthy learning environment, including healthier menu options in the cafeteria, future expansion of the college's fitness facility, and a full-time wellness coordinator, among other efforts.
"Having a tobacco-free campus is just one part of achieving our overall goal to create a campus culture of health and wellness," stressed Stewart. "As a college, we will continually look for additional ways we can provide the healthiest campus environment possible as well as wellness opportunities and education for both our campus community and those who visit."

What is the syntax to disable text selection on a div and all of it's sub elements. I'm using $("#MyContent).disableSelection() to disable all of the text in the below code and it works in firefox and disable all three lines at once.
In IE explorer 9 it doesn't work on child elements so to disable all of the text I'd have to do $("#text1).disableSelection(), $("#text2).disableSelection(), $("#text3).disableSelection(). What is the syntax to disable or apply this to all children at once?

Kitchen Aid Never Again!
By BenMarshall
from Schertz Tx
Comments about KitchenAid Architect Series II Stainless Steel Undercounter Dishwasher:
I wanted to buy American as much as possible. I have a Kitchen Aid cook top, This dish washer, and a double oven. The other 2 have been ok, but the dishwasher has had to be repaired 3 times. the last time we replaced it with a cheap Frigidaire. In the process of getting someone to work on it (which if I waited for a "certified" kitchen aid repair company would have taken over a month to even get someone on site. So I went with someone from Angie's list and they tore my customer cabinets up! The Appliance repair industry is shame full and you make it tough for us to get any info on our own products to do it ourselves. We had a perfectly good dishwasher when we bought this one as we replaced our entire kitchen. We gave our old one to the neighbors and it's still working perfectly! I am so disappointed in the American Made product that I cannot stand it. getting help with your products takes too long, is too time consuming, and unfortunately, is needed too often!
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

We see a lot of confusion specific to the topic of force majeure. Often, executive management has the belief that force majeure clauses in their contracts protect them from a wide variety of disruptive events, and thus they may not invest appropriately in business continuity plans and strategies. However, the concept of force majeure is somewhat convoluted and often includes many variables. As a result, if an organization does not plan appropriately, it may actually be left unprotected and vulnerable to claims of breach of contract in the event of a disruption.
This article explores the history of force majeure and its current state application in contract law. Avalution developed this perspective to help inform organizations about the potential issues associated with force majeure clauses and the need for additional preparedness activities to adequately protect the organization in the event of a disruptive incident. However, please keep in mind that we are not lawyers, and nothing in this article should be construed as legal advice (be sure to consult with legal counsel regarding this topic and appropriately balance contractual protections with business continuity planning strategies)....

Seven years ago, readers everywhere fell in love with Jim Glass, the precocious ten-year-old at the heart of Tony Earley's bestseller Jim the Boy. Now a teenager, Jim returns in another tender and wise story of young love on the eve of World War Two. Jim Glass has fallen in love, as only a teenage boy can fall in love, with his classmate Chrissie Steppe. Unfortunately, Chrissie is Bucky Bucklaw's girlfriend, and Bucky has joined the Navy on the eve of war. Jim vows to win Chrissie's heart in his absence, but the war makes high school less than a safe haven, and gives a young man's emotions a grown man's gravity. With the uncanny insight into the well-intentioned heart that made Jim the Boy a favorite novel for thousands of readers, Tony Earley has fashioned another nuanced and unforgettable portrait of America in another time--making it again even realer than our own day. This is a timeless and moving story of discovery, loss and growing up, proving why Tony Earley's writing "radiates with a largeness of heart" (Esquire).
About the Author
Tony Earley was selected by "Granta" as one of today's best young writers, "The New Yorker" featured him in its best young fiction writers issue, and his first novel, "Jim the Boy", became a national best-seller. He is also the author of a highly praised collection of short stories, "Here We Are in Paradise". He lives in Nashville, Tennessee, with his wife and teaches writing at Vanderbilt University.

Man gets 5 years for fatal shooting ROSE PLEADS GUILTY TO MANSLAUGHTER
Published: Wednesday, July 12, 1995 at 3:15 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, July 12, 1995 at 12:00 a.m.
A Spartanburg man pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter Tuesday for fatally shooting another man during an argument two years ago. Judge Frank Eppes sentenced Luther James Rose Jr. to five years in prison. Rose was 19 when he shot Richard Eugene Smith, 19, of 151 Phyllis Goins, on Nov. 6, 1993. Smith was shot four times and died within minutes at Spartanburg Regional Medical Center. Police and prosecutors said they received conflicting information from witnesses about how the shooting happened, which is why both sides agreed to the plea. "We believe that if the case was tried that the jury would likely find the shooting was done in self-defense," said Seventh Circuit Assistant Solicitor Anthony Mabry. "All the witnesses said the victim pulled the gun first and pointed it at the defendant and was pulling the trigger," Mabry said. The conflicting statements involve whether Smith put the gun away after pointing it at Rose. Although Rose had a good chance of being acquitted, he didn't want to take the risk of going to trial and instead wanted to move on with his life, said public defender Charlie Sanders. "He says he's extremely sorry for what took place," Sanders said. The victim's family also was satisfied with the agreement, Mabry said. Investigators have said that Smith, who was alone, drove to the scene the day of the shooting and got out of his car. A short time later, an argument started between Rose and Smith. Rose told the judge at Tuesday's plea hearing that he wasn't sure what the argument had been about. Original Atex file name: ROSEPL.EA

From Our Editors
Throughout the year, the USPTA-certified professionals at LaTuchie Tennis Center hone the on-court skills of adults and kids alike during social tennis courses. No more than eight students participate with each instructor, allowing the instructors to fully grasp each player's strengths, weaknesses, and areas that need the most attention. Lessons unfold on four outdoor courts during summer months and six indoor courts, helping students test their playing abilities in different settings regardless of outside or inside dust devils. LaTuchie Tennis Center also keeps players well equipped once their lesson days are over with gear and racquet-repair services at their full-service pro shop.

The Battle of the Bachmanns' Bull: We're All Culture Warriors Now
by Todd Essig
July 20, 2011
Both history and legend track a significant throng of eager spectators following the Union army from Washington DC towards Manassas in Prince William County, Virginia to watch the Battle of Bull Run. They fully expected July 21, 1861 would be a glorious adventure; they were going to witness the southern rebellion quickly end while picnicking on a hill. As we know, things...

Every two weeks or so...
Well it seems that about every two weeks or so I start getting all weird and emotional about this whole "affair". Maybe it is my hormones after all.
So we all got together this last Saturday at Bristol and for all intents and purposes had a good time. We (Elric and I) had a little bit of time to just us and we had a little bit of talk, but the bigger conversation happened later.
But first, I did find it strange that he went off by himself a couple times, once for almost 45 minutes. He didn't really have much of a reason as Cajun was chasing after our daughter most of the day and not with us really and my mom was also not with us. We did have two other friends with us, one who did his own thing or hung out with Cajun and the other who happened to arrive at the same time as Elric and hung out with he and I. I did ask Elric about his walking off and all he said was that he hadn't really thought about it until a little later when he thought he could be doing this with me instead. Well duh!
But the time that we had to ourselves was great! We chatted and flirted a bit, I challenged him twice to archery where we both won once, we talked a little about serious stuff and just had a nice time being together. There was even a semi-intimate moment which still makes my heart and stomach flutter.
So, bigger conversation... Elric joined Cajun, baby, mom and I for dinner afterwards and I drove with Elric. At first the drive was ok, a little playful banter, which is good and then silence. Surprisingly, he asked me what was up as I was so quiet. I asked him if he was afraid of me (psycho ex-girlfriend thing) or afraid of being around me. He admitted that he was a little afraid, but not of my going weird, but of how he feels. He admitted that he still is very attracted to me and that part of him, his baser part as he says, keeps telling him to go ahead. But this other part keeps saying "SHE'S MARRIED!".
We actually started getting somewhere with this conversation. It was a real give and take conversation where we were both talking calmly and rationally and no one was getting all emotional or taking over...until we got to the restaurant and my mom called to see how long we would be. We probably would have sat there for awhile just to get stuff out, but I/we couldn't keep them waiting especially since mom doesn't know (although I know she suspects something and I really should have a chat with her, but at this point I don't know what to really tell her or what I need to tell her).
I wanted to talk to him again, I had a lot that I wanted to say and ask and talk about but Sunday we were both exhausted and I had no privacy, so we said Monday. Well we didn't get home until 10:30 and I didn't get online till 11:30 and he was getting ready to crash so he promised Tuesday. I started getting sick yesterday and so sent him a message around 10:45 and apparently he didn't get online till almost midnight. So now we are at today. I have yet to hear from him in any way and I find that depressing in itself. He got my message so a note saying "ok" or "sorry to hear you are feeling crappy" would have been nice...but nothing! And he hasn't been on yet tonight either and I know I'm being self-centered or paranoid when I say this but I wonder if he's "going ninja" and trying to avoid me and the conversation.
On a positive note though, he told me that he had a date Friday night which led to sex and surprisingly I didn't really have a problem with that, well the sex at least. I do feel envious of the time he spent with her, and it was strange that when he told me, the first part (date) gave me a gut pang, but the second didn't. I suppose that could be construed as a good thing, yes?
Now I just want to talk to him again. We were finally getting past the awkwardness and talking again, not just about us but about life and things in general. I know you will probably say, he's probably just busy/tired again like last time, and part of me knows that this is probably true, but that doesn't help unfortunately, I still miss my friend very much, and I miss my almost lover even more, how could I not when he admits to wanting to be with me!
Vent vent vent vent vent... gush gush gush gush gush
Thanks for reading y'all. I should probably get ready for bed as it is 12:40 and I am tired and still recouping, slight dehydration most likely, although I want to stay up for a while longer to see if he shows... waiting for that phone call anyone? Is that pathetic or what?

Honey. It isn't pathetic to be in pain. But it is probably something you will have to let go. Expressing attraction and emotion and being able to act on that are different things. As he said, he can't help but think "she's married". If his wiring is completely against being able to handle a poly relationship, there you have the answer. Maybe he's afraid you're trying to sort of talk him into it with the continued discussions. Unless he's the one bringing them up, in which case he has to come to some sort of decision or stop confusing you in this way. But if you're the one pushing the issue, you might just be pushing him away-as a lover and as a friend. I know it's hard, but don't lose sleep over it. He'll come to his own decisions and his own comfort level. All you can do is allow him the time and space to do that.
I'd rather be hated for who I am than loved for who I am not.
"Hopes up Warning"
I think you should really focus on what's real V. What's real is that you can't accept him as just a friend and are torturing yourself with hopes he will "change".
From my stand point you expect a lot out of him as just a friend with the need for replies and good nights consistently. The idea of you being jealous of his 45 minute walks is also a warning sign. You are awfully possessive of what he does considering he is your friend.
I wish you could just enjoy his friendship and let him enjoy yours V. Careful V...don't push him away by trying to keep him closer.
Take care

Thanks guys,
I know that I seem to keep repeating myself. And I'm sure you are getting tired of the broken record that is me. lol
@XYZ123: You are right about needing to let things go. Although I do bring up the questions most often, I have told him many times that if he is not comfortable with talking about it or if he just plain doesn't want me to bring it up anymore, say so. He feels that if it is something I need to talk about, he is ok with that. I do my best to not make it seem like I'm trying to change his mind, since that is not the purpose to my questions. The purpose is solely to understand and he is all for that. And I don't bring up the deep issues every time we talk either, I usually give him some notice too so he has a chance to say, I really don't feel up to talking about that tonight/right now. We are honest with each other. It is not an imagined honesty or a protective honesty either.
@Mono: I'm sorry if you got the impression that I was jealous of the 45 minutes away. It was more just concern. When you set up to go somewhere with a friend or friends, as a group, wouldn't you think that you would do things together? If it was, "Hey I'm gonna go catch this show while you guys do whatever, meet up with you over here later" it would not have been a concern. Even "I'm gonna go wander while you do this" would have been great, but all we (I wasn't the only one there after all) got was, "I'll be back in a bit, meet you at this spot." So, maybe it sounds like I'm justifying my thoughts, but I wasn't the only one to wonder where he had been gone to for so long, and it was our friend who suggested I call him to see where he went.
As for the goodnight and replies... So maybe you hang up the phone without saying goodbye and you don't reply when a friend sends you a message saying that they can't stick around any longer for a chat that was supposed to happen because you aren't feeling well... I say goodnight and would reply, and most of my friends do as well. I do expect these things from him because as a friend he had done that before the whole poly thing was brought up. When there is a change in a person's normal behavior, don't you wonder why? If your normally cheerful friend comes up to you all frowning, don't you ask what's up? If someone who normally answers the phone with "Hey!" suddenly starts answering with "Hello." wouldn't you find it strange? People, especially friends, have certain quirks and habits that we get used to and when they start doing things differently, we have the right and responsibility to ask if everything is ok, especially if they are our friends.
I really am trying to be careful not to push him away. And I know that if I start pushing he WILL let me know. He has before when he felt pressured back when it was evil me. And yes, my hopes are going up and down, some due to unfinished conversations but I think most due to hormones...there does seem to be a pattern to these rants of mine.
Do I hope he will change his mind? I'd be lying if I said no. Am I going to actively try to change his mind? No. We are still going to discuss things because he has confusions as much as I do, it's not black and white for him either, and if in the process things change, woohoo. If not, we have a stronger friendship because we understand each other better. He says he feels the same way about this as I do. He has said that only time can tell whether his feelings about being in a poly relationship will change. Am I waiting for this to happen? Perhaps a little. I admit it. Currently, I can't see myself out looking and trying to find someone to be a part of our family. The whole reason I and we are even here is because of how he and I feel about each other. But I am not holding my breath anymore and I am doing my best not to let this affect my normal every day life.
Can I accept him as just a friend. Yes. I already do. That doesn't mean that I can't hope for more. Hope for the best, prepare for the worst. The best in this case would be a real attempt at a relationship with him. The worst would be we settle into a nice comfortable friendship. Neither of us can imagine not having the other in their life.
The facts as they currently stand: He is attracted to me. He would love to have a relationship with me. He is afraid of his jealousy getting in the way and poisoning my marriage. He has certain views of marriage, applicable or not, that are confusing him because he "shouldn't" feel this way or have these thoughts about a married woman. These are things he wants to talk about with me. We both enjoy intelligent and philosophical discussions like this and if it helps him to solidify his thoughts an emotion, in either direction, then some good has come out of it.
Anyway, I'm off for now. Still recouping and am supposed to go to my Thursday group tonight.
Thank you both, and I really do take your words seriously and your opinions to heart, whether I agree or not.

I beg to differ. The "worst" would be having a "relationship", things don't work, and not being in each others' lives at all.
The "nice comfortable friendship" to me seems like the best scenario.
This looks like a case of "you can't always get what you want, but sometimes you can get what you need".
You need to think about the glass that is half-empty and half-full, both at the same time.
I wish I could go back a few months and take my own advice, as well as some of the others' I've read here.

I know that the worst really is that we can't be friends...but my gut, my true instinct says that that won't happen, and whenever I listen to it, it doesn't lead me astray.
Maybe my hubby "spoiled" me in a sense. Before we got married, he had broken up with me telling me that he just could not see us married. Ok, my husband said that. Obviously something changed. 10 months later we were back together, 7 months later we were living together again, a year and a few months later engaged and 8 months after that married. Perhaps that has put on some rose-tinted lenses when it comes to Elric. Give him time and understandinig and whatever conversation or discussions we want and need from eachother and we shall see what happens. Or maybe I can't get what I want, but he is someone I need in my life, so on that count you may be completely correct. But given time, who knows what can happen.

All righty! Feeling pretty good right now, and only time will tell (and hormones I suppose)
Elric and I had probably the best conversation of all our attempts. He has felt that he was going in circles telling me the same thing over and over, which in a way was true but with different reasons for what he was telling me. But he was telling me over and over because I never really had my chance to say what I needed to say. That finally happened last night.
We set up a meet time and started talking at 10pm and talking and talking and talking back and forth, give and take, a real dialogue between us that lasted for almost 5 hours! I was able to respond to things he has said in the past and to also get a lot of feelings and questions off of my chest and he was able to respond to both. There were hard times and joking but the important thing is that I think I finally said what I needed to say and got what I needed from him.
He was able to explain his feelings better and I got a look into his mind and heart as I hope he got a look into mine. He does love me as a friend but he has "let go" of trying/wanting to love me as more. I'm not saying that it doesn't hurt, but it's not the searing pain of my earlier broken heart.
When we finished the conversation and said good night I even had a bit of a smile on my face, perhaps knowing that yes, I can move on now.
Now I can only hope that my hormones and other chemicals don't get in my way. Now I think I can finally put some of this behind me and start working on my other problems...one thing off my over flowing plate, lets see what's next.
I'm looking forward to see where our friendship takes us. He is one of the best friends I have ever had and although I am sad that it probably will never be more than that, I truly feel I can be content with that. I say probably because you never can know if things will change, not that I'm hoping really, just saying, anything is possible.

If the plane flies, he'll be the first in his country to successfully build one. Nderitu will put the two-seater to the test sometime next week, and he's clearly got some last-minute fixes to make. But his success shouldn't be defined by how high or how long his creation can stay in the air. He's already won just for having the determination to build something of his own—especially something as complex as an airplane. So best of luck to you, Gabriel Nderitu. For my money, you've already reached some pretty impressive heights. [AfriGadget via The Daily What]Reply155 repliesLeave a reply

What a horrible night and stay
There was beer festival going on, no one told us from hotel.com or even from hotel, we were told that all music and noises will end by 11:30pm but people were still on terrace till 02:30am, making so much noise, we could not sleep, we had to call the reception to ask them to lower their voices.... No consideration to others

Excellent Hotel for break, but not work
Very friendly, dinner served with a smile and excellent quality. Good Selection of draft beers for a hotel. Continental breakfast at 07:00 was not always available, only downside if you needed to be at work in Swindon for 08:00

Never judge a book by its cover!
From outside the Highworth appears a little past its best, don't be fooled by appearances though, its just a clever disguise. The public rooms are clean, tastefully furnished and recently refurbished the bar and public lounge are noteworthy. The staff are friendly and helpfuland care about what they do. Our bedroom (High Stakes - they all have a "High" theme) was clean spacious and recently refurbished - it was also comfortable and quiet. I'll save the best 'til last; the food! Having booked for dinner as a kind of last resort we didn't expect a lot, how wrong could we be? The menu was adventurous but not Blumenthal-ingly pretentious the food was well served well presented and well cooked - no wonder the restaurant was full, the locals are obviously keeping it quiet! We would definitly stay again even if it means finding an excuse to be in the area!

Lovely family run, friendly hotel
Lovely family run hotel with really nice staff and rooms. The food was beautiful. The carpet in the hallway/stairs could have been a little cleaner/newer but honestly this didnt detract from the lovely stay I had or the nice room I was given so I will definitely return
