Actress Jaime King Visits The Who What Wear Closet
You may know Jaime King as polished Southern belle Lemon Breeland on Hart of Dixie, but in real life the stunning model-turned-actress is decidedly more directional--and even more of a style icon as her onscreen character has become. Instead of Breeland's sweet, vintage-inspired dresses and coordinating separates, you'll find King in avant-garde outfits, embracing daring necklines, severe silhouettes, and other high-impact pieces on the red carpet. Her look is glamorous with a modern, eclectic take, whether she's experimenting with a structured top and metallic trousers or breaking up a head-to-toe print with a sporty parka.
Though King's love of high fashion may stem from her past modelling days, when she walked the runways for esteemed designers like Alexander McQueen and Karl Lagerfeld, we're currently fixated on her latest projects. In addition to the addicting Hart of Dixie, which ends its second season on May 7th, King's flexing her acting chops in Sin City: A Dame to Kill For, in theatres October 4th. She'll reprise her role as Wendy in the highly anticipated sequel to the 2005 neo-noir action film Sin City. In other words, King has a busy year ahead of her, which is why we were thrilled when the actress took the time to stop by Who What Wear headquarters and talk fashion, specifically the tuxedo dressing trend we've been seeing everywhere lately. Read on to check out the inspiring outfit King put together and her favourite picks from our closet.
Her Look
King immediately gravitated towards Stella McCartney's Off-White Cotton Lace Randall Shirt ($2165), styling the the feminine shirt with Porter Grey's Silk and Cotton Trouser Shorts ($310, 323.655.5900) in Black and Christian Louboutin's Pivichic Heels ($795) for an edgier, menswear-inspired contrast. "I like adding pieces of interest with different designs that are the antithesis of what the look is," King explains. "That way, you're thinking outside the box and not doing something head-to-toe." To complete her going-out look, King chose subtly sophisticated accents, like Catbird's Dark and Stormy Earrings ($98) in Oxidized Silver and Pavé Diamonds and Adornia's Addison Ring ($345) in Rose Gold.
Her Picks
1. Jill Stuart Marilyn Bra Top ($358, 212.343.2300) and Ranya Shorts ($428, 212.343.2300) in Black
This charming bra and shorts set marries contemporary and vintage-inspired elements. "It has a modern edge with the satin, and it's a cool take on the whole look we are going for," King explains.
2. Gerard Yosca N2002 NS Handcut Glass Stone Necklace ($650, 702.770.7000) in Antique Brass
Though King opted for a mostly monochrome palette during her styling session, she added hints of colour via statement accessories. "That's the one thing about this kind of dressing: you have to find a pop of colour to break it up," she says. "Hence the jewellery!"
3. Club Monaco Marina Top ($130)
King was drawn to the versatility of Club Monaco's ruffled shirt. "This is great because a girl can pair this with a black pant, short, or skirt, because the weight of the fabric is so nice. It flows really beautifully."
4. Kenneth Jay Lane Satin Gold and Flawed Ruby Bracelet ($238, 1.877.953.5264)
Kenneth Jay Lane's heavy cuff was one of King's favourites. "It reminds me of old Yves Saint Laurent, sort of like the '70s with this burgundy colour," she says.
5. Jason Wu Black Silk Organza/Leather Belted Jacket ($1990, 310.550.5900)
"Jason Wu is one of my favourites, and he's a good friend of mine," King reveals. "This jacket is the perfect version of a modern tuxedo look. With the details and leather, it's just exquisite."
6. Manolo Blahnik Bondo Pumps ($855, 212.582.3007) in Black
King continued her menswear-inspired theme with a pair of Manolo Blahnik's pointy-toe heels. "I love these shoes because they reminded me of a tuxedo," she explains.
7. Overture Judith Leiber Jessica Floral Sequined Minaudiere ($350)
This sequined floral clutch offers a feminine foil to King's selection of neutral colours and sharp lines. "All the black and white needed a pop of colour!" she says.

When SLAM! Wrestling first got in touch with wrestler, stuntman and actor Mike Roselli about interviewing him, it was mid-December 2009, and he was scheduled to undergo a routine knee surgery.
That alleged run-of-the-mill procedure turned into post-surgical hell. But to borrow a line from Gomez Addams from The Addams Family, Roselli's feeling much better now.
"I went in for a simple day surgery to remove shattered cartilage and I got an infection, like one of those superbug infections. And I ended up in the hospital for almost two months there," he said, noting he ended up having to go in for three more emergency surgeries.
A blood clot also developed, forcing him to take blood thinners and antibiotics, and essentially worsening an already ugly situation. But such are the risks involved for the 10-year stuntman, who required his initial knee surgery after a stunt went bad. During an action sequence, he jumped from a three-story balcony to a two-story balcony, but his safety wire gave out, causing him to drop 18 feet to the ground.
Roselli's never been one to take the safest of jobs, having first started out as a wrestler and training sometime after his eleventh birthday.
"My Dad had a really good friend named 'Cowboy' Jack Bence, and Cowboy Jack was an old-time pro wrestler. And Jack started training me in Olympic freestyle wrestling and he never smartened me up to business," said Roselli.
He started wrestling boys his own age in junior high, and continued on through past Grade 12 and into first year university. Over the coming years, he'd collect numerous gold medals celebrating his amateur achievements in provincial and national competitions. John Tenta would coach him at Queen Elizabeth High School in 1988 before getting called up by the WWF and achieve fame as "Earthquake." At the Burnaby Mountain Wrestling Club at Simon Fraser University, Roselli would be coached by former Canadian Olympian Dave McKay, and go on to Greco Roman gold in the national heavyweight division (130 kg) in 1991.
"Right after the national championship, that's when I decided I can either go to the Olympics or I can go chase my pro wrestling dream," he said.
"I was allowed to participate in pro wrestling and Olympic wrestling, as long as I didn't get paid for any of the pro wrestling I did. So I worked my first couple of years in pro wrestling for free, just so I could keep my amateur status."
When asked why he didn't just don a mask, Roselli said Tomko wouldn't allow it, insisting Roselli was a babyface. With a second thought, Roselli, who wrestled as "The Olympian," wondered if Tomko simply wanted to avoid paying him.
"But I got on TV -- he put me on his show right away, so when I was in Grade 12, I was on TV every Saturday."
All Star also began a long-lasting friendship between Roselli and Pete Smith, who would go on to wrestle as "Rocket" Randy Tyler.
"Mike was always a gifted athlete; one of those guys that makes the rest of the guys jealous because he was already 250 pounds-plus (no weightlifting required), already had good wrestling abilities (no practice required), and he was so immediately accepted by the other established wrestlers, he got good matches and angles right out of the gate, (no breaking-in required)," Tyler said.
By contrast, Tyler said he needed to gain weight, practice hard, and pay serious dues for about two years in order to rise to a similar level. Thereafter, the two started working together, first facing one another in singles matches (with each alternating from heel to babyface), and eventually tagging with one another, as "The BBC" in Vancouver, and "Justice Incorporated" in Portland.
Besides his physical and technical gifts and abilities, Roselli was also easy to get along with.
"One of Mike's other strengths was always the dressing room," explained Tyler. "He was always very popular, especially with the bigger names that would come through from time to time, like Hercules Hernandez, Matt Borne, etc."
Roselli in fact went up against a number of big names, as "Gorgeous" Michelle Starr booked him to work job matches in Edmonton and Calgary for the WWF in the summer of '91.
"I walked up to Pat Patterson, I told him who I was, that I was the national champion, and he gave me a couple of dark matches right then and there. So I was pretty fortunate," Roselli admitted.
Roselli wrestled Louie Spicolli in Edmonton, and in Calgary, Los Boricuas member Miguel Pérez, Jr.
"They called [Perez] 'El Cemento' because he was so stiff. He almost took my head off with a clothesline. I was like, 'Oh God... '"
WWF told Roselli he needed more experience. But also holding him back, Roselli felt, was the fact he didn't take steroids or other enhancement drugs -- a result of rigorous testing in the amateurs -- which caused him to lack the huge yet chiselled physique of many WWF performers.
"I went back a couple more times to do jobs, but then I met Sandy Barr in Portland, Oregon. And Sandy had a weekly television show and I dedicated myself for a couple of years just going to Portland every weekend and working for Sandy, because that was great television exposure. And Sandy was one of the best promoters and best people I'd ever met."
Roselli wrestled "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan and Curt Hennig for Barr, and found himself booked all over the Pacific Northwest. He also worked Japan, wrestling there between 1995 and 1998 for various smaller promotions. The Far East style was far stiffer, which Roselli said he didn't mind, given his amateur background. Back home, he'd adapt his style depending on his opponent.
"I could be extremely light -- light for the veterans, stiff with the young ones. But I've got to say, I never hurt one person in all the years I wrestled."
Stunt work came into Roselli's life one day when a producer who saw him wrestle told him he'd be perfect to play a villain in a TV series. Roselli ended up getting a job on a Fox children's show called Los Luchadores, working as both a wrestling coordinator and a reoccurring heel character.
With his busy schedule, Roselli again demonstrated the connection between good nature and career success.
"If you're easy to work with and easy to get along with, your phone will ring like crazy. But if you're a dick, your phone is not going to ring any more."
Acting has also become a part of his repertoire, with his biggest part coming, fittingly enough, in the wrestling mockumentary Kayfabe.
"As The Wrestler was very accurate in the traumatic part of pro wrestling life, Kayfabe is very accurate in the funny, comedic part of pro wrestling life," he said.
In the movie, he played pro wrestler "Steve Justice," a character he said one of the writers -- his old friend Tyler no less -- based on Roselli himself: "That was based completely on me," he said.
Roselli is also busy preparing for a life after movies. Before heading into surgery late last year, Roselli, who's in his third year of Human Kinetics at Douglas College, was preparing for a biomechanics exam. With an associate degree in Sports Science, and about a year-and-a-half left to earn his Kinetics Degree, Roselli is weighing whether to get into physiotherapy, chiropractics, or teaching.
"Stunt work is exactly like pro wrestling -- once you hit 40, your bones start to ache. I'm going to keep doing stunts and keep wrestling until my body says no more. And then I can have something to fall back on."

Harteau Sworn In As Minneapolis Police Chief
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - Minneapolis has sworn in Janee Harteau (juh-NAY' HAR'-toh) as the city's new police chief.
Harteau, a Duluth native, was sworn in as Minneapolis' 52nd police chief at a ceremony Tuesday at City Hall. She is the first female and first openly gay police chief in Minneapolis history.
Harteau's 13-year-old daughter stood next to her during the ceremony and pinned Harteau with the chief's badge. Also close by was Harteau's longtime partner, Sgt. Holly Keegel. Both Keegel and Harteau joined the Minneapolis Police Department in 1987.
Harteau said her guiding principle as chief is that every officer's actions should reflect how they would want their family members to be treated.
Harteau replaces Tim Dolan, who retired in November.

Christmas '64 with Jimmy Hill
This was Jimmy Hill's routine throughout the 60's, when he won 3 gold medals from the Society of Illustrators and the Artist of the Year Honour from the Society of American Artists. During that decade Hill was hugely influential on the look and style of illustration in America, to the point where Norman Rockwell told him, "As I represented the thirties and forties, you exemplify your own day and age."Nothing lasts forever and for a variety of reasons, by 1970, Hill no longer accepted American commissions. That's something we'll look at another time. For now, we're fortunate for the gift of Christmas illustrations Jimmy Hill gave us in 1964.
*You really need to enjoy these pieces at full size. They're in my James Hill Flickr set.

Thanks Leif, for these unseen (by me) James Hill illustrations!ReplyDelete
I've got Society of Illustrator Annuals from '66 & '67, & they have a number of James Hill pieces in them. I remember thinking then what a versatile stylist he was; but I never got to know much about him. Leif, your description of him delivering work to AD's in NY, then hanging around in the city at the Society -- it all just reeks of nostalgia. I know things are inredibly fast now, & that's all well & good -- but to me that was the ideal way to present work. I grew up in Kansas City, & was lucky enough to intern at Hallmark Cards just after high school (summer of '68), & I remember freelance artists delivering their work in much the same way. Call me a Neandrathal, but I miss those days!ReplyDelete
Neil; I'll be doing a week on James Hill some time soon so you'll get to know him a little better. I agree with you about the good ol' days of dropping off the job: something I enjoyed doing during the first half of my career, before computers and email made the delivery of art just another email message.ReplyDelete
There was a nice sense of community about delivering the job, like you were dropping off a gift and getting to see the eyes of your client light up at the reveal.
I guess we're both a couple of Neandrathals because I miss those days too! ;-)
troy, I don't doubt Hill was an influence on many artists - even if they weren't directly aware of it, much as Bernie Fuchs or Bob Peak were.ReplyDelete
Thanks for commenting!

Thank you Leif for sharing these images with us. I have not seen them before. Some people may believe the family has all the best pieces, I don't think that was the case with Jimmy's work. At least I don't have any!! Thanks again! Looking forward to your Jimmy Hill week! TobyReplyDelete

NEW YORK (AP) — The pun is as fitting as it is inevitable, so let's go ahead and get it out of the way: "Sharknado 3" has definitely jumped the shark.
It airs Wednesday at 9 p.m. EDT on Syfy as the latest in what, before now, was settling into a much-anticipated summer TV rite.
Beware: Seek guilty pleasure elsewhere.
Two years ago, the original "Sharknado" film depicted a weather aberration on the Southern California coast that caused bloodthirsty sharks to cascade on hapless Angelenos. But hunky beach-bar owner Fin Shepard (get it?) saved the day with a makeshift shark explosion. Both as cinema and marine biology, "Sharknado" was...

COLLECTION: Athena Salon and Spa Heartland South 2013
Athena Salon and Spa Heartland South 2013 Collection. (From left) Jack, Byron, Angela, Ryan, ShellyPhoto 11 of 11
Inspired by the Aveda Heart Lands Collection, Athena Salon and Spa created a collection which marks a return to simple, rustic, American Style. Their backdrop was a historic railroad station, featuring both men and women of the Heartland.
"We met collectively as a team over a 2 to 3 month period to decide our direction and plan of the collection or trend," says stylist Mary Rolling. "From there, we discussed and created the design of the hair, make-up wardrobe and location of the photoshoot. We chose Tallahassee's Historic Railroad Station for the shoot, and the clothes were provided by a local Vintage store, Avant Garb. We wanted the main focus be men; however we decided to incorporate women to launch our new Vomor hair extensions."
Shelly: We used Aveda Extra Lift Pastel Blonde Series to give Shelly's hair extra dimension and applied Vomor extensions to add length, volume, and color. Shelly's hair was upstyled with soft volume using Aveda Volumizing Tonic and Aveda Air Control Hair Spray.
Angela: We enriched Angela's color with Aveda Full Spectrum Protective Permanent Crème Hair Color. We added length, volume and color with Vomor extensions. Angela's hair was styled in a loose fish tail braid, using Aveda Volumizing Tonic and Aveda Brilliant Hair Spray for a look that is both practical and intricate.
Jack: First Jack's hair was given a gloss with Aveda Full Spectrum Deposit Only Color Treatment Hair Color. Jack's hair was styled in a traditional pompadour, an American favorite, using Aveda Men's Firm Hold Gel and Aveda Men's Grooming Clay.
Ryan: Ryan was given some warm natural highlights using Aveda Full Spectrum Deep Extra Lift and Deposit Crème Color for Dark Hair. His hair was styled in loose tousled waves using Aveda Men's Firm Hold Gel and Aveda Men's Grooming Clay.
Byron: We blended Byron's grey with Aveda Full Spectrum Deep Extra Lift and Deposit Crème Color for Dark Hair. Byron's hair was styled with a deep side part, a simple yet polished look, using Aveda Men's Grooming Clay and Aveda Control Force Hair Spray.
Credits for the shoot:

Each of the five groupsets consist of a NuVinci Optimized™ controller and a transmission.
"With the NuVinci Optimized products, we enhance the riding experience and offer manufacturers the opportunity of differentiating their models," says Richard Hilgart, Product Manager at enviolo. "Given the growth of new segments such as urban lifestyle and eCargo bikes or the outstanding progress of commercial and B2B fleets, it was evident to us that it is essential to create product lines with unique features focused on those applications. The MY2019 groupsets are a result of analyzing these trends and optimizing the products to fit rider requirements."
Within the MY2019 portfolio, the city groupset effectively covers the requirements of a diverse city-topography with improved efficiency and offers a maintenance-free ride. The trekking groupset provides a wide ratio range, while enabling low-maintenance applications in combination with a belt-drive. For the sportive groupset, the thru-axle compatible dropouts of 135, 142, or 148 mm allow a combination with boost tires and the internal components were designed to withstand shifting under load of up to 120 Nm. The commercial and cargo groupsets come with a commercial warranty and focus on durability using optimized materials in all components to handle aggravated duty cycles. To support the rider's safety, an integrated brake disc mount of up to 203 mm is also available on the cargo groupset.
"We are confident the new use case approach will offer riders the optimal ride performance, while further establishing the brand enviolo, and growing a successful business. In 2017, we had incredible revenue growth of 44% over 2016, and early indications of Q1 results in 2018 already confirm this positive trend," notes Billy van den Ende, Sales Director at enviolo.
Samples of the new groupsets have already been delivered, thus enabling manufacturers to display their new MY19 models in time for their house shows. Current MY2018 products will remain available for warranty replacements only.

Advice please ladies
I don't normally post personal info on the interwebz but need to vent and get opinions. Fiance of 5 years is confusing me lol. Here is the break down as simple and short as I think possible.
- We met and moved fast, living together in three months and discussed and had w child within a year.
- Proposed she said yes and we still aren't married.
- She started to not trust me due to a text I received at 2 am from an ex stating that she missed me. (She went through my phone while I was asleep)
- Moved past that and decided to buy a house together.
- Talked and decided to have another child.
- Buddy played a prank on me with my email that caused more trust issues (has my email account info ).
- Broke up and go back together.
- She is now texting and lying about a friend whom is a guy (she won't allow opposite sex friends yet she is doing it. )
- States she is no longer IN love with me and doesn't fell she can ever trust me and has no interest in me at all anymore.
More info: We each have a child from previous relationship, I take hers as my own, she can't stand mine and has verbally stated so.
I am the cook, maid, babysitter 95% of the time. We do everything the fiance wants, including time with her family and not so much mine. I would not cheat and never had, nor have the available time.
So now we are at the fact that she doesn't love me, but comfortable with me around financially and not sure if she can or will be the same with me.
I am also worried about leaving as I can't imagine her or my kids struggling money wise. But if I continue to put in financially what I am now, I won't be able to survive on my own.
Advice from you ladies please, do I stay and make changes to try to rekindle love and rebuild trust or do I split. And if I do go, what's fair financially? I bring about $1500 into her account for bills. The rest is mine. But not enough I think to support myself.

I don't know if my own childhood or values is what's keeping me but I have the mentality of I'll go through hell and back for my kids. Even if it is dealing with my fiance lol.
What's funny is she states she always trusted me until my ex texted. Lol, yet she got my phone while I was sleeping. That doesn't sound trusting. Or how is it trusting that when I tell her nothing was going on I wasn't believed.
Thanks again.

To be blunt:
It doesn't seem like you're getting much out of this relationship other than your children.
The level of distrust based on one text from an Ex, seems excessive. The prank by your friend would be explainable by your friend. So, it seems that she was looking for an excuse.
Truly, if you're concerned, you could set it up as roommates. But, you would need to have clearly defined rules and spaces. That way you would know that your children are cared for and you would still be with them. This situation will be hard for you if you still have romantic feelings for her.
Agreed. If there is one thing that I despise it's hypocrasy. I have had women try and pull that on me and I drop them faster than a hot rock 9obviously didn't have kids with them). There is no reasoning with someone who can self-justify outright hypocrasy, you're dealing with someone who is truly delusional.
But you're (the OP) now deep into what I call "the business of life", the practical concerns, money/finances, housing, kids, basic survival, etc. Trying to make that all work with someone you dont get along with is gonna suck no matter what. Best you can do is try to protect yourself as much as possible while meeting your obligations to your kids.

I feel she is completely lost. I have been hoping the jumping through hoops and following her requests and MAKING it OBVIOUS that there is no cheating or reason for distrust, that the trust will be renewed. But alas I feel she has never trusted in her life lol. I've been accused of sleeping with her mother (who watches our kids) if it takes me longer than normal to pick kids up.

The whole "sleeping with her mother" thing.....she seriously might need some profession help. And I'm not kidding here...That kinda stuff (unless her mom has shagged her BFs in the past) is like scizo/bi-polar paranoia type stuff. Which if thats the case.....you're playin' a game you will never ever win.
I've personally known a couple of men who have dealt with clinically bi-polar women and it's a losing game, and what you describe sounds VERY eerily familiar.

Why has the Ladies forum turned into a Men's Advice forum?
Do women have some kind of special knowledge regarding relationships?
OP, your woman has your balls and you know it. You're letting yourself be played. You need to see a psychotherapist more than you need to ask a bunch of strangers for advice. Because most likely, the next relationship you have will be just a repeat of this one. If you want to stop this pattern, seek professional help.

You mean gossip? Yeah, we're good at that. Fo' sure.
The OP wants advice and he's giving us a one-sided story that reveals waaay to much about his character. He's the kinda guy most of us women wouldn't want to be with. We want a strong man, a guy who won't put up with our BS, who won't let us treat him like dirt.
What his woman of five years has been doing to him is not what most of us women would have done to our men in one week. Heck, we wouldn't even think of playing these kinds of games. Bleh.

So that's why I am asking. Would you feel its to late to change her mindset? By becoming the alpha of the relationship? See I have tries once but very lightly. She was raised to be strong and show no emotion. That a guy will not provide anything for her that she cannot do on her own. Her mother has never told her " I love you ". She has expressed she feels like a dude and its hard for her to talk or for her to be sensitive to the issue.

I think its time for you to jump ship honestly. I'm not a female but this came up in recent posts. But it seems like space may be your friend. Get your own place and be a father to your kids rather then putting up with that and having it get worse for your children.

Get out of there dude, My sister is the exact same way, and she has made plenty of men miserable! I've seen her make grown men cry like a baby.

No relationship is perfectly 50/50 and absolute equals. Relationships are like puzzle pieces, the voids in one piece are filled in by the matching piece.
For people like us, talking with professional therapists helps. You need it. She needs it. Go together or go separately. But get some. And stop using her excuses to excuse her crummy, unloving behavior towards you. You have a brain and a loving heart. Remember that.
EDIT: Don't know if you read fiction, but if you do Maugham's "Of Human Bondage" (1915) might give you some insight.

It comes down to deciding for yourself how you deserve to be treated. If you're not getting what you need or want and there is no hope that you will. The choice is fairly simple.
But from what you described of her, there is no changing that.....unless she has some epiphany on her own and decides to seek help for herself.

and again says exactly what i would have written.
before you try and change someone else, remember how hard it is to change yourself. only she can decide if she needs to change and do the work to "make it so". after 5 years, well, change is not impossible but it is improbable. at least she's been upfront with you so now its up to you to make your decisions.
for a relationship it takes two people to make it work. at this point and according to what you've told us, you're the only one doing that work.

If you are even reading all of this it is obvious that you are both in a relationship that is going no where and needs to end. Kids are no reason to stay in a relationship just to live in misery for the rest of your life or until the kids get 18 and have a bad example of what parents should be. Do the right thing, be a man accept your losses if that is what you want to call them and be the bigger person and move on. Be a father for your child and be there no matter what for them but do not get sucked into ever going back with her because she is the mother of your child or she has "changed". She will always be the psycho she is now with issues of her own that will carry on for the rest of her life and make yours miserable and your children as well. Pack your **** and leave with knowing that there is a better place to be. This is coming from a dad who's son is 15 now and can see how much his mom has lied and made things up and wants nothing to do with her. If you are honest and truthful and remain a decent person your children will see who is right and who is wrong. Never talk bad about the other person even if they bad mouth you all the time, be the bigger better person and ignore their little attacks and just lead by example, your children will thank you for it and be better people because of it. Mine is going career Navy and will end up either on one of the teams or working with them. I encourage him to do whatever he wants and to serve with honor and integrity, trust me living in your situation you and your children will never have happiness like my son and I have. Good luck and hope you make the right choice.

First thing: I'm not female.
The only alpha move left is to say "I'm not going to marry you and I'm going to start making the decisions about how my children are raised", then follow through on it.
You've been waffling for the whole relationship and she's not going to stop walking all over you until the relationship is working on your terms.
Right now the only term you can enforce is the end date. If you can't make that stick, you're screwed.

As a divorced man(due to her infidelity), and one who has had numerous girlfriends, let me say this. I agree with some of the comments, and disagree with some.
I could have stayed in the relationship(marriage) longer since she wanted to wait to get a divorce until we were in better financial shape. But, my feeling was, you are either married to me or you're not. You don't get to stay under my roof and play around with another guy.
As for going through phones/computors, that is the accepted, number one thing to do nowdays if one thinks that someone is cheating. I did it to a GF, which confirmed my suspicions that she was back with an old flame. I am not saying it was right, but self preservation often causes one to do things one shouldn't.
If you ask if they are cheating, more than likely they will lie and say "No". My "exwife" admitted that is what she would have done if I had asked her.
With all the "social diseases" out there, you must protect your self in whatever way you can.
I agree with the "bail out now" comments that have been made. If nothing else, the space is needed at this time. You both need some serious alone time to think and work through things. Even if you think you can't afford to out, you can't afford to stay in this relationshp for your own peace of mind.
Plus, it gives you some of your self respect back. If you keep letting her walk all over you and control you, you will have less and less self respect.
I am currently working on re-establishing the relationship with lady whose phone I went through. We have had a year hiatus, and she did some major rethinking of our relationship and some of her attitudes. Whether it will work or not depends on whether I can over come some major trust issues with myself due to what see did last fall to cause me to go through her phone. But, so far things seem to be going okay as long as she stays away from the other guy. They go to the same church, so she has contact with him periodically.

"Freedom begins with an act of defiance"
Quote for the day:
Another issue for the OP to consider is that the longer you stay the more likely things are to spiral down the drain. Are you willing to risk her flipping out sometime and calling the COPs on you claiming you hit her or something other lie just cuz she is mad at you?
The true alpha thing to do at this point is put your guard up and start thinking defensively. As long as you're still under the same roof.....you're on dangerous ground.
"Freedom begins with an act of defiance"
Quote for the day:
I've read through your original post and all the replies thereafter. There are some very good points made. I think there is very little trust on her part of you and at this point a sensible amount of distrust on your part.
Where does this leave you? If she has made it a point to tell you she is not in love with you there is really is not much more to go from there. Love seems to be a little one-sided and is not being fair to you. Counseling/mediator may help the two of you figure this out then again separation while you are going through this may be the answer.
Good luck!
OP, if she told you about her past relationships and why they did not work out, and those failed relationships followed similar abusive and controlling events and patterns as your current one, then honestly there's no sense in beating yourself up about this failed relationship.
And if you intend to leave, why can't you take your kids with you? And if need be, sell your firearms to help keep you and your kids fed and housed?

After you've had that much negativity with someone, you are always going to hold some sort of resentment for that person. This resentment builds and builds, until it becomes full blown disdain. Every little argument or joke taken too far is going to lead back to some previous issue you guys had in the past and it will never go away. You could see a therapist, you could both have some fantastic epiphany, you could tell yourselves that it's only until the kids grow up, whatever. Bottom line is you'll both be unhappy, you'll both hate each other and you'll end up playing that on-again off-again game until the end of time. You have to understand that once you reach a certain point of intimacy with someone, things dig a little deeper. You become a lot more vulnerable to each other, and a little bit of spite goes a long way.
On the topic of whether or not to end it now, I think you already knew the answer to that. The relationship is beyond 'unhealthy' and should be given a last meal and put up for the firing squad, so to speak. Make a clean break and let time relieve some of the animosity between you two before attempting to reestablish communication, which IMO, would only be fore the sake of your kids. Your kids will definitely pick up on the aggression between you, which is no better than staying together from their standpoint, which is why it's important to give each other some time to move past the break up before trying to slowly reincorporate boundaries and details that are involved with shared custody. My last bit of advice would be to avoid court at all costs. Many times, it is completely necessary, but if it can be avoided, IMO it's best to do so. If you guys absolutely cannot come to an agreement on any particular terms alone, that is when the court system comes in. Keep in mind, coming up with a solid game plan for custody, financial issues and disbursement of possessions will be a lot easier to do after that cooling off period (No, not 10 days :P) but of course, a lot of the time one or both people involved is going to be unreasonable and unwilling to compromise.. which is when it needs to enter court.

As of right now it seems that a break up is on the way. Respect is completely lost on her behalf. Everyday I am reminded that she can't stand me. She has been yelling at kids and unhappy and blames this with being unhappy with me. We talked a bit and discussed the decisions of a break up. She jokingly said I'd take the kids so she can focus on school and work. Then retracted that as a joke. At this time with my employment issue, I believe we are going to try to be civil towards one another in order for me to stay to find another job and move forward.

From that info; it really doesnt sound like a relationship you should stay in. The part that gets to me is her stating her discontent about your child. How you guys have been together so long is beyond me, since that should be a dealbreaker for anyone.
I hope you guys can end amicably since you have children together and both move on.
Good luck....
she needs to grow up and put her big girl panties on right now. time to let her know what needs to happen for her to remain on the premises. its called "ground rules for relationship failure to allow continued co-existence in a combined household until such time as the sheets are literally separated". sit down, talk about it, write it down, and each of you sign it. if she breaks it, tell her her things will be on the street.

I (a total stranger on the internet) am just giving you an opinion - but obviously I think what I have to say is worth wasting my time writing it out...
She sounds like she has a personality disorder of the Histrionic or Narcissistic type who is using the accusations to throw you off and keep you emotionally upset - it is a form of control. Sadly I had a similar experience with a crazy man and it took me far too long to get free. This is NOT GOOD FIR THE KIDS - and it weakens your ability to be a fully functioning parent.
I suggest you try "duplex" style living and you emotionally detach from her as that is where all her power resides and keep a journal because if she senses you slipping out of her grasp she may begin to mess with the kids and you need a record of these things if it comes to a custody battle (not recommended)... Keep doing the right thing for the kids but distance yourself so yo can offer them a sane and safe place when she starts doing to them what she is doing to you and trust me - sooner or later it will happen bt f you keep doing the next right thing the kids will one day know it and let you know they know it. That is the best reward and yes, revenge.
You sound like a good and decent man - from what you wrote - if you think you can change her and renew the trust I believe you are mistaken and will spend years twisting yourself into a pretzel to wrest sanity from the insane. Don't do it - it is like arguing with idiots or drunks - just makes you crazy and loses more precious seconds of your life.
Reviving an old thread. I am still living with her but as of tonight moving out.
Ive been reading through this thread and realized some things. A lot of you are right as I allowed her to control the relationship. Its been hard to let go as I am an extremely great father. I would rather be here for my kids everyday an suffer her wrath. But in doing so i finally realized i am being selfish.....if i truly cared about my children I would not allow them to be part of such a scene. They shiuld not witness their mom yelling and cussing at me. Trying to be here everyday for them is also hurting them. I see that now.
On a side note, my fiance punched me a few times in past. Both kids were not present. But yesterday she was on a terror yelling at kids while I showered. I jumped out of shower still soapy worried she would harm them. When i expressed to her that she began yelling at me and was pissed. She threw her phone, and two remote controlls at me in front of my 3 year old who waa standing extremely close..
Ive had it. Im packing up and leaving today. I just wish I was financially well off to take kids with me now. I have been worried that their mother would just yell and not take care of them like i can. She assures me that she is only in the agitated mood she is in everyday because I am here.
So I amnleaving and hoping that she is the good mom i.know she can be.

Wow, I sympathize with your situation. I think you're doing the right thing. I was once in a relationship with someone who was mentally unstable, and it made both of our lives exceedingly difficult. I had an easier time than you walking away from it, however, because no kids were involved. Best of luck!
thanks for the update.
she spelled it out for you so there should be no doubt that she simply wants you gone.
i'm glad you've had enough and are moving out today.
i know you want the best for the kids.
but think about it this way: the relationship was teaching the kids some very unhealthy things about what a woman's role and what a man's role are in a relationship and even what is to be expected/tolerated in a relationship much less what constitutes a relationship.
you say you're a great father.
now is the time to look at why you got into this relationship and why you stayed....and then not make the same mistakes again.
stay involved with the kids. show them through making a new life for yourself how to walk through this world with love and respect....for oneself, for a loved one, and for a relationship.

Why do people hate the mayor?
I've lobbed my share of criticism at New London Mayor Daryl Finizio in this, his first term in office, as he has often seemed to fall woefully behind the learning curve.
Remember the first budget debate, when he heralded his plan for a whopping 20 percent tax hike, an absurd and unpalatable solution to the city's financial woes that was, naturally, dead on arrival.
This being a little politically charged city, the mayor didn't get much of a honeymoon period before the wolves moved in. And to be fair, the mayor can function in attack mode as well as any of his critics.
But there has been a distinct whiff of pure animosity in the attacks against the mayor, which often seem more personal than policy-oriented. I think you even could call some of it hateful.
The latest and best example was the photo that appeared this week on a website managed by gadfly Kathleen Mitchell. The picture of the mayor was manipulated to make him look like Hitler.
Mitchell made matters worse by explaining, after the offensive picture was taken down, that people misinterpreted it. They might have known, she said, it was meant to draw parallels between the great oratory skills of the mayor and the greatest practitioner of genocide the world has known.
Really? We were supposed to figure that out?
In other words, if you didn't look at the picture and understand that Finizio's oratory skills were being commented on you missed the point.
That explanation sure seemed to put Ms. Mitchell's campaign of hate in perspective. She could hardly bring herself to apologize when called out.
Last week, one of the mayor's loudest critics posted a photograph on his Facebook page of the mayor's car pulled off the side of his driveway, parked partly on the lawn, evidently so another car in the driveway could pull around it.
Apparently this was interpreted as a minor violation of some zoning ordinance.
The mayor-bashing gas has apparently seeped under the doors to the executive offices at L+M Hospital.
The hospital's communicator in chief last month lashed out at the mayor on The Day's editorial page, asking him not to "parrot others' rhetoric" in criticizing the hospital. The mayor had taken part in hospital bashing during a rally for a union walkout of nurses.
You wonder how it could be considered good public relations for an executive of a nonprofit, nontaxpaying community hospital to publicly scold a duly-elected representative of the community. The mayor bashing is not good for the hospital, which just came off a long lockout of its union nurses, or the community.
After all, if the hospital executives really want a meaningful meeting with the mayor, just call up and make an appointment, like people do in the real world. Don't make some "open invitation" in the newspaper that seems intended more to settle a score than really meet and overcome your differences.
Finizio, for his part, usually seems good at turning the other cheek.
This week, though, he called out the Hitler-hosting website and the city political leaders it tends to support, including fellow Democrat Michael Passero, the city councilor, firefighter and one-time opposing candidate for mayor.
Passero seems poised for another run at the mayor's job, and if he wants to be taken seriously he ought to distance himself from the haters.
I was struck that one of Passero's first attacks on the administration this year was to suggest that the bid process for the rebuilding of the city's animal shelter was so flawed that it should be reviewed by the attorney general.
Passero said he was not accusing anyone of anything. But then why try to involve the attorney general, who is certainly not interested?
I don't understand this, any more than why you are supposed to think of oratory skills when you see a picture of someone made to look like Hitler.
It was curious that Passero formally lodged his complaint against the Finizio administration while, at the same time, not far away, steam seeped dangerously from a City Hall heating system rupture. Workers had simply put plywood over the door of the steam-filled room, instead of stopping the leak and the continuing damage it was causing. It took the health district to intervene.
Maybe Passero could have been more concerned with the health of the City Hall employees if he was going to attack the competence of the administration.
A healthy and thriving political arena where people can comfortably spar on both sides of an issue is perhaps one of the city's strengths. It's been that way here for a long time.
It's the growing inclination by some toward hate or personal attack that is worrisome.
This is the opinion of David Collins.

Today's Comic
Taxes make me stabby.
April 17, 2007
First off, a little bit o' pimping. If you're looking for a book to read, may I humbly suggest reading
The Name of the Wind
by Patrick Rothfuss. I generally HATE fantasy books, but this was one of the fastest reads I've had in a long time. It's 662 pages and I'd have been as happy if it had been three times as long. Give it a try.
Next, because of so many requests, the
Better Consumer shirts
are now up on pre-order. If I get enough requests I'll do babydolls, too.
Finally, this weekend is
in Troy, Michigan. The mighty
Steve Jackson
will be there, as well as
these people
. My schedule for the weekend is as follows:
Friday 5:30-6:30pm:
Developing Characters One Strip At A Time
Friday 6:30-7:30pm:
Opening Ceremonies
Friday 9:00-10:00pm:
Chocolate Ritual
Friday 10:00pm-midnight: Celebrity Munchkin
Saturday 11:00am-noon:
How do you measure webcomic success?
Saturday Noon-1:00pm:
Saturday 2:30-4:00pm: Tom Smith Concert
Saturday 4:00-5:30pm:
How to offend an Audience
Saturday 6:00-9:00pm:
Bunnies & Burrows GURPS
Sunday's wide open so we'll see what happens. Please note I am NOT bringing merchandise to the con and I will NOT have a table - but I will do free fast schetches as always, and you can bring a blank Munchkin card to me, too. I hope to see you there... now buy shit. Daddy's got taxes to pay.

Finding available post office jobs is not an easy task. First, you have to figure out what type of postal job you are interested in. The various types of postal jobs available at United State Postal Services includes: post office clerk, postal carrier and mail clerk. Other local post office jobs include corporate jobs, sales and marketing jobs, and data technology jobs.
The USA Postal Service (USPS) delivers billions of pieces of mail each week. The USA Postal Service worldwide has over a million employees. Postal jobs involve processing, sorting, and delivering mail and packages along with providing customer service and supplies in post offices. Most postal service workers are mail carriers, clerks, or mail sorters and processors. Postal clerks wait on customers at the post offices, whereas mail sorters, processors, and processing machine operators sort incoming and outgoing mail. Mail carriers deliver mail to hundreds of millions of addresses throughout the world. Postal workers are visible every weekday, including Saturdays delivering the mail.
Postal employees typically retire rather than leave postal careers. In fact, the retention rate for most federal employees is very good compared to the general public. This goes against the public perceived image that postal workers are unhappy and over-stressed workers.
Even though, the postal service has hundreds of thousands of employees, the public often only sees a handful. There are many different jobs within the USPS including customer server and main processing..
Jobs are available nationally as well as around the globe. As with every employer, a postal worker can transfer or perhaps be transferred to a different position or location. Popular work destinations for the general population is also reflected with postal workers. So attractive locations in warm cities in California and Florida are sought after.
Postal workers gain instant recognition from their community. They are usually automatically popular and trusted. Postal workers appear on television, in movies, and are often depicted as welcome members of communities. Therefore it is not surprising that many people take the postal exam to get jobs working for the USPS.

Rams Upset Moravian for Another NCAA Win
#6 Farmingdale State - 3, #4 Moravian - 1 (8 innings)
Mahwah, N.J. - The Farmingdale State softball team defeated Moravian today, 3-1, in eight innings, advancing on in the NCAA Division III Regionals. The Rams now face the winner of #3 Rowan/#5 Eastern Connecticut at 4:00 p.m. today.
In a tight game, the Rams and the Greyhounds saw two scoreless innings, before Farmingdale got on the board in the top of the third. Freshman center fielder Kaitlin Keenan (West Islip, N.Y./West Islip) got on with a bunt single. Freshman first baseman Aubrey Walker (West Babylon, N.Y./West Babylon) hit a single to left for runners at first and second. Sophomore shortstop Nicole Farber (Oakdale, N.Y./Connetquot) reached on an error by the second baseman, and Keenan scored from second for the 1-0 lead.
Moravian had a scoring chance in the third with a double off the wall in left center, but Farber took a relay from junior left fielder Kim Ferraiolo (Staten Island, N.Y./Tottenville) and threw out the potential tying run at the plate to end the inning.
Moravian tied the game in the bottom of the fourth inning on a 2-out bloop single down the left field line.
The game would remain scoreless through regulation and Farmingdale scored two runs in the top of the eighth on a 1-out double to right field by senior designated hitter Kristina Cirillo (Brentwood, N.Y./Brentwood). In the top of the eighth, Walker led off with a single and advanced to second base on a foul out. Sophomore catcher Arielle Morelli (Bohemia, N.Y./Connetquot) followed with a single to center, advancing Walker to third. Morelli stole second before Cirillo brought in the game-winning runs.
In the bottom of the eighth, winning pitcher freshman Hope Zino (Bay Shore, N.Y./Bay Shore) secured the victory forcing a ground out and two fly outs for her 16th win of the season (16-2). Zino struck out two batters, and allowed no earned runs with no walks.
Moravian sophomore pitcher Elizabeth Python (Huntington Station, N.Y./Walt Whitman) struck out five in the loss, allowing six hits and one earned run, falling to 7-2 on the season.

Pac-Man Crochet
May 2, 2010 in General
I was browsing through my Bookmarks the other day and I cannot believe I never got around to posting this – Crocheted Pac-Man!
You can download the project at Carey Huffman's amazing blog, Full of Fluff. While you're there, look around – she has adorable crocheted monsters, baby hats and more!
(I've had mixed feelings about that whole crocheted food trend… but wouldn't it be cute to make some crocheted cherries and pretzels for Pac-Man and the ghosts to eat?)
