Sacrifice and compromise are both critical parts in the give and take that goes hand in hand with any relationship. If you are asking “How can I get back together with my ex boyfriend?” then you are going to need to keep these things in mind. Nothing is going to make mending a broken relationship simple, but some of the advice contained within this article can certainly make it a lot less difficult overall to give him a reason to want to come back to you.

So while you may be obsessing with the all important question, “how can I get back together with my ex boyfriend?”, what you need to be focusing on is rectifying the causes of failure. By doing so you will be able to eliminate the tension and stress which brought the split on in the first place.

So, How can I get back together with my ex boyfriend, you ask?

When a relationship fails, you need to take that as an indication that something went wrong. If your boyfriend left you, then it was likely for one of two reasons: Either the relationship was becoming stale because there was not enough of you in it, or the relationship was getting too claustrophobic because there was too much of you in it. Either way, one of these causes is going to lead to relationship suicide. If you are asking “How can I get back together with my ex boyfriend”, then you need to start looking at which of these led to the break up so you can act accordingly.

Whatever the issue is that chiefly contributed to the split, it was probably either something that you did, or something that you didn’t do. It may be harsh to look at things this way, but that is simply how it usually works. The person who was broken up with either did, or did not do something and the person doing the splitting simply felt driven away. So now what happens, and how can you manage to get him to come back? The first step is to change whatever it was that drove him away in the first place.

You need to sit down and really take a hard look at your situation. What could have led to the breakup? Which of these things were your fault, and which were not your fault?

Rule out the ones that were out of your control, since they continue to be out of your control, and focus on the things that you did do wrong, the ones that you can in fact change. If your biggest problem is something that you were responsible for and that you could change, then there is a very good chance that you can still get back together with him. However, you must be certain you really are willing to make the necessary changes to appeal to him again.

Just knowing how to get back together with your ex boyfriend is not enough. It won’t happen unless you are willing to take action. Now!

Amanda Knox family invites Italian ex-boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito and his family to Seattle

FREED US student Amanda Knox's family has invited her former Italian boyfriend and his family to visit them in the United States.

The 24-year-old, who flew home on Tuesday after being acquitted of murder and sexual assault which saw her jailed for four years, is adjusting well back in Seattle and wants to resume her studies, her father said.

"She’s actually doing remarkably well. you know, it’s almost like she hasn’t missed a beat with the family. That’s been really nice to see," Curt Knox told CNN today.

A court in Perugia on Monday freed both Ms Knox and her Italian ex-boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito after acquitting them over the gruesome 2007 killing of British student Meredith Kercher.

Ms Knox’s father said the pair – who were shown kissing shortly after the murder, in a widely-played video – had sent mail back and forth to each other while they were in prison in Italy.

"they have stayed in contact," he said, adding: "The Sollecito family were invited to come to Seattle. Raffaele is going through the same thing that Amanda is right now and really needs to get reconnected."I think at some point they may come over and that would be really nice to see," he said.but he said it was probably too early for Ms Knox to contact the Kercher family, who have been put back to square one by this week’s acquittals, with no answer over who killed their daughter."I think right now, it’s a little bit premature. The Kerchers are still trying to work through the whole verdict and so forth. Hopefully in the long run, they will see that really the truth is Amanda and Raffaele had nothing to do with the death of Meredith."as they hopefully get there and are allowed closure with this horrific crime and the loss of their daughter, they’ll be able to really recognise that Amanda and Raffaele had nothing to do with it," he added.While Ms Knox is keeping a low profile with her family at the moment, experts say she could make millions of dollars by selling her story either by writing a book, or by selling the TV or film rights.her father said Ms Knox planned to use her experience to help people facing similar plights to hers, although she also wanted to resume her studies – she was in Italy as part of a language course."I think at some point down the road, she will be some type of activist for wrongfully convicted people," he said, adding that she "definitely wants to finish her degree through the University of Washington".

Relationship Advice: 5 Tips to Make a Strong Marriage Even Better

Posted by larry under getting ex back
[21] Comments

1. Time together is time during which the complete focus is on each other. that means no TV, no newspaper, no kids. I know, I know, that’s hard in our over-busy culture. but stop and consider for a moment: can you think of many things that are really more important?

So what do we do with this time together? you might ask. Simple: Talk to each other.

That sound you hear is all the husbands moaning and groaning and feeling betrayed that another male is actually suggesting this to their wives.

Be that as it may, there is no substitute for talking to each other on a regular basis. This can be about almost anything, as long as it is mutual.

2. Many of us had the word honor in our wedding vows. so what does it really mean, anyway?

Webster’s defines honor in this way: to hold in the highest esteem. consider what your marriage might be like if you viewed your partner as precious to you, as someone to hold in the highest esteem. What would it feel like to be treated in this way by your partner? Might you then want to return the honor?

3. Many people believe apologies are a show of weakness. Quite the opposite is true.

The ability to apologize shows a strength of character that is a strong predictor of successful marriages. Often, the apology has more benefit to the one giving it than the one receiving it.

4. everyone likes to feel appreciated. there are at least two ways to demonstrate appreciation. one is to show appreciation for things that have been done. This might sound like, thank you for taking the kids to the doctor, or, thank you for understanding when I felt sick today.

Sometimes, an even stronger form of appreciation is for the positive qualities of a person. This could sound like, I really appreciate your sense of humor, or, I appreciate your patience with me.

Either way, a little appreciation can go a long way.

5. It’s important that you share with each other your hopes and dreams. Anticipating together has at least three benefits: it helps couples to bond with each other; it gives hope for the future; it gives couples light at the end of the tunnel in the tough times that come in all relationships.

So there you have them, five quick and easy things you can do to improve even the best of relationships.

Here is one more thing to consider:

What could your relationship be like if you were able to do these five things regularly?

‘If we don’t come up with a good reason to make a new album, we should just f*** off’

Posted by larry under getting ex back

The Irish Times – Saturday, October 22, 2011

‘Achtung Baby’ was the making of U2. as the album is rereleased after 20 years, alongside a film about the band, Bono and Edge recall the turmoil that surrounded the recording and talk about their future

IT’S WHEN THREE glasses are raised to toast “12-step programmes” that you realise perhaps one too many cocktails has been taken. It’s a bar in Toronto and the caipirinhas were Bono’s idea, with Edge not slow to get his round in. “If we don’t come up with a very good reason to make a new album, we should just f*** off,” says Bono. “why does anyone need a new U2 album?”

For the first time in their 35-year career the notoriously “faster, stronger, higher” band have put the brakes on and taken a long look in the rear-view mirror. a new film about the band, From the Sky Down , documents how their huge success in the 1980s provoked a bout of self-loathing and almost broke up the band as they struggled to stay true to their vision of a band forged in the white heat of Dublin’s punk/new wave movement.

To mark the 20th-anniversary rerelease of their key Achtung Baby album, U2 had a rush of blood to the head. they decided to open their archives and cede editorial control to the Oscar-winning director Davis Guggenheim to make a film ostensibly about the troubled gestation period of Achtung Baby . the result was something very different.

“Watching From the Sky Down the first time made for painful viewing. I hated it,” says Bono. “U2 never look back. It’s never been what this band is about. Edge will tell you that when we put together our best-of collections he forced me – actually had to physically force me – to listen to them before they went out. I’ve never been interested in what we have done. I’m interested only in what we’re about to do. But I think there comes a time when it actually becomes dysfunctional not to look into the past, and for the Achtung Baby album we made an exception.

“the film is not about us per se. It’s about how bands function – or, in this case, don’t function. But when I saw it first I just saw these four people talking intensely about their music, and, really, does the world need that at this time? Davis didn’t tell us he was going into our past to put a context on what really happened to the band after the success of the Joshua Tree and how bad things were in Berlin when we started to make Achtung Baby . He didn’t tell us because we wouldn’t have agreed. now that I’ve seen it a few times I realise it is actually about the creative process. Let’s face it, the era of rock music is going to end soon, and if you are interested in rock music and rock bands you’ll be interested in their internal dynamics: what makes a rock band tick, the tribal aspect, the idea of the clan. the irony for me now is that we made Achtung Baby to set fire to our earnestness and now here’s this very earnest film about the making of the album.

“We held back nothing from Davis. We opened up our archives to him and he really had carte blanche. the first time I saw it I was going, ‘oh no, no, no,’ and I went to him and made a few suggestions as to the changes I wanted. there was no battle of wills. He just didn’t even get into a discussion with me. He didn’t change anything. But I was looking at it, going, ‘why is this film talking about Cedarwood Road [where he grew up], the Baggot Inn and my grandmother? I thought we were making a film about the Achtung Baby album. What is going on here?’ ”

What is going on in the film is a look at how a band who shared musical DNA with Throbbing Gristle and Cabaret Voltaire ended up sitting at music’s high table alongside Elton John and Dire Straits – but without the AOR table manners. a generation before Nirvana dragged alt-rock into the musical and media mainstream, this punk-theatric band ended up on the cover of Time magazine, in April 1987, as “Rock’s Hottest Ticket” and selling out arenas around the world.

Disgusted with the idea of being rock idols and disillusioned by their stadium-rock billing, they were at breaking point. “We were carrying Catholic guilt around – the sin of success,” says Bono. “We had emerged from playing with the [Virgin] Prunes and hanging around the Project Arts Centre getting mime lessons from Mannix Flynn. And the context here is that the musical scene we came from had this very Maoist music press. there were certain canon laws: thou shalt not go platinum; thou shalt not play in a stadium or an arena; thou shalt not go to America; thou shalt not be careerist. If you even thought about those things you had committed a sin.”

DESPERATE NOT TO turn into a cigarette-lighter-in-the-air stadium-rock band, U2 boarded the last flight to East Berlin just before Germany reunified, in 1990. it was one of the harshest Berlin winters, their recording studio, Hansa, was a former SS ballroom, their hotel was rubbish and they had no songs. “on a scale of one to 10 we were at a nine for breaking up,” says Bono.

For Edge, U2 were over the moment they walked into Hansa – or, at least, Rattle and Hum U2 were over. “it would have been insanity for us to have stayed in Rattle and Hum mode; that was a wonderful, great little aside, but it was never who we really were,” says the guitarist. “Who we really are is all about the future and innovation. We were getting a bit purist and a bit ‘disciplist’ about roots music, but we needed to become disciples of what is coming next. I arrived in Berlin with drum machines and loops, telling everyone what was happening in Manchester,” he says, referring to the Hacienda nightclub and to the Stone Roses and Happy Mondays, among other bands. “I was also big into industrial music, but the producer of the album, Danny Lanois, was going, ‘Okay, this all sounds interesting, but show us where it’s going musically.’ And I couldn’t.”

Things deteriorated rapidly. as Bono has it, while outside they were tearing down the Berlin Wall, U2 were building their own wall inside Hansa. on one side were the so-called traditionalists: Adam, Larry and Lanois; on the other, Bono and Edge were throwing club- culture and dance-rhythm shapes. Bono had always felt aggrieved that whenever a club DJ would play a U2 song, it would empty the dance floor. He wanted to make U2’s music sexy.

“to Danny Lanois, from his perspective, we were kindred spirits to his love of roots music,” says Edge. “He loved the organic feel to our music, the material that was on the Unforgettable Fire and the Joshua Tree . But no one knew how to make the bits of new material we had into U2 songs. the first two weeks were a nightmare. everything we tried would just nosedive. it got to the stage where we lost trust in each other . . . and there was a clear dilemma.

“there were options: one was to see whether U2 could absorb new material and make it their own, or whether U2 as a band were inflexible and couldn’t stretch. the other option was to throw out all the material, start again and . . . extend the line-up or bring in other musicians.”

With the band having to take some very hard decisions about continuing to flail around in the studio or just cancelling everything, a deus ex machina arrived in the shape of the discarded second bridge from a song called Sick Puppy (later renamed Mysterious Ways ). That bridge was shaped into the intro for a new song, One . “as soon as One came into that room it stabilised everything,” says Bono. “everyone just sort of surrendered after we had that. By surrendering, we got over the hump.”

With a song to anchor the album, they returned to Dublin for Christmas and finished off the album in a rented house in Dalkey, in south co Dublin.

Released in 1991, and hailed as a triumphant reinvention, Achtung Baby sold more than 20 million copies. it remains their most important album, and the resulting tour, Zoo TV, changed how live rock music would be presented and experienced.

It’s dark outside in Toronto now, and an interview that began in sunshine has gone way over time. There’s just one more thing. it may well be an act of lese-majesty, but here goes: one possible interpretation of the film, Bono, is that, without Edge, you’d still be in the Baggot Inn. “sure,” he says, nodding.

“That’s a lovely thing to say,” says Edge. “But I don’t think that’s true. It’s symbiotic. I wouldn’t be able to do what I do without Bono, and I think that’s reciprocal. He makes me great. I help him to be great.”

Before they descend into you’re-my-best-friend territory, we slip away. Bono is saying, “being in U2 is like being in the priesthood. There’s only one way out. And that’s in a coffin.”

Achtung Baby is rereleased next Friday in five formats, including a remastered CD and a six-CD, four-DVD edition that includes the film From the Sky Down 

Bono’s line on the horizon  

U2’s most recent album, No Line on the Horizon , was widely perceived as a poor seller. But Bono has a different take. “We’re just about to come to five million sales on No Line on the Horizon , and that, these days, is the equivalent of selling 12 million records,” he says, referring to the pre-Napster and pre-illegal download era.

“you can actually do the figures on that. so when you look at it like that, it has the same sales as All That you Can’t Leave Behind [their hit 2000 album]. That’s despite the fact that No Line doesn’t have a beautiful Day and doesn’t have a Stuck in a Moment. There’s no pop song on No Line , but it’s still sold that amount. It’s been an amazing success for an album which is quite a complex piece of work and doesn’t have one pop song on it.

“People say Get on Your Boots was the wrong single, but it’s great live. Unfortunately, in the last few weeks of finishing the album, we didn’t have the objectivity. We figured out Get on Your Boots later, when we were on the road, and it became a much better song.

“I think Unknown Caller is a classic, as are Moment of Surrender and the live version of Get on Your Boots .”

Back to the future: ‘The app format brings you back to that world of gatefold sleeves’ 

Looking back at the trauma of getting Achtung Baby on its legs and having to forge a new sound and identity, Bono says, “It’s actually worse for us now than it was when we went to Berlin.”

He shrugs off the fact that the band have just recorded the biggest-grossing live tour in the history of popular music and wonders whether U2 can still be relevant. “We can play the big music in big places. But whether we can play the small music, meaning for the small speakers of the radio or clubs, where people are living, remains to be seen,” he says. “I think we have to go to that place again if we’re to survive.

“there are so many U2 albums out there. We need a reason for another one. the whole point of being in U2 is that we’re not here to be an art-house band. our job, as we see it, is to bring the art house to the mainstream; our job is to puncture the mainstream.”

Earlier, he was using an iPad with the Achtung Baby songs and videos on it. “That’s probably what our new album will look like,” he says. “I’ve been talking about this for the past four years.

“our last album was the first album to be made available as an app with BlackBerry devices, but it didn’t work: the functionality was not what it could have been. new formats are going to happen. I’m always banging on about this. the app format brings you back to that world of gatefold sleeves, of being able to read lyrics – and [now of] being able to play the album at home on your plasma TV.”

We’re just saying…for all they do, these Sox are for you (really?) – Keep Me Current: We’re Just Saying

Posted by larry under getting ex back
[221] Comments

Todd: need to start with a non-sports comment,as it’s been an incredible year for current events. to anyone inour small but loyal readership who predicted that over the last sixmonths we would witness the deaths of Osama Bin Laden and MoammarKhadafy AND the capture of Whitey Bulger – I strongly recommend youbuy a Powerball ticket immediately.

Back to the toy department of life that we opine on so well – theWWE-style Red Sox melodrama continues to unfold down at 9 YawkeyWay, to the point that I soon expect hearing that John Lackeyknocked out Terry Francona with a folding chair in the Soxclubhouse.These last few weeks have been totally surreal. Theaftermath of last week’s Boston Globe article has created a mediacircus, the likes of which we haven’t seen since the RinglingSpygate Brothers left town about four years ago. I’ll try my bestto recap the events from the last seven days.

It started with Sox principal owner John Henry spontaneouslybarging into the studios of Boston’s non-flagship radio stationlast Friday afternoon to dispel myths he felt were beingperpetrated by the on-air afternoon hosts. He was barraged withquestions for well over an hour and did his best to avoid answeringmost of them directly, even stating that Globe reporter Bob Hohlersaid that no one in team ownership leaked any of the information inhis article, which was not the case (Hohler has not disclosed anyof his sources).

Another comment that stood out was when Henry admitted he wasnot in favor of signing Carl Crawford, and that he left thatdecision to his baseball people because he does not like to meddle.no offense John, but a $142 million investment is significant evenfor a businessman of your wealth. if you want to get a little moreinvolved in that particular transaction I don’t think any fan wouldstrongly object.

While admirable that Henry offered a truthful opinion, I wonderif he was trying to make the Crawford signing look like a TheoEpstein move for the inevitable smear campaign that’s coming up forBoston’s soon-to-be ex-GM. Oh I’m sorry John, you said you don’tsmear anyone…perhaps you leave that job to your baseball peopleas well.

This is a soap opera that keeps being made worse by theownership troika of Henry, Tom Werner and Larry Lucchino. Much ofthis story would have gone away if they had taken responsibilityfor the chaos from the start. But they can’t do it, because theirpathological need to be liked by the fans (i.e. consumers of tixand brix) far outweighs their willingness to do the rightthing.

Reports continued to come out this week about Sox playersconsuming fried chicken and beer in the clubhouse during games.With regards to the beer, some of it also reportedly occurred inthe dugout. This particular practice happened much more frequentlyin baseball back in the days when Mike and I were kids and goingback generations before that, but it’s something you don’t expectto hear about as much now.

Current Sox pitchers Jon Lester and Josh Beckett spoke on thissubject. Lester said the dugout drinking accusations were‘completely false’, but did admit there were occasional rally beersdrunk in the clubhouse. Beckett concurred that he “…made mistakesalong the way this season, but this has gone too far. to say thatwe drank in the dugout during the game is not true.” I actuallywish Beckett had disclosed what ‘mistakes’ he made, because untilhe does he will continue to be hounded by the local media.

For anyone that wants to compare this story to the 2004 Red Soxdowning shots of the hard stuff during their historic ALCS comebackversus the Yankees, those “Idiots” consumed prior to the games anddid it to unify that team against insurmountable odds. the actionsof 2011 appear to have fractured a club that might not havecollapsed in September had every player been giving their besteffort…a sobering thought indeed.

Back to Theo – by this time next week, it will likely beofficial that he is the President of Baseball Operations for theChicago Cubs, and that old friend and current Padres GeneralManager Jed Hoyer will follow Epstein to the Windy City and becomethe GM there (funny how we haven’t heard anyone in San Diego make afuss about their GM departing).

I realize when it comes to sports most fans live in awhat-have-you-done-for-me-lately world and will remember Theo mostfor the simmering mess he is leaving behind in Boston, along withthe fact most of his recent free agent signings have been less thanstellar. I will admit that the seven-year revolving door at theshortstop position and big-money signings like John Lackey areamong some of Theo’s transgressions, but in my mind the good faroutweighs the bad.

Theo inherited a very good team in 2003 and added the likes ofDavid Ortiz, Bill Mueller, Kevin Millar, Keith Foulke and CurtSchilling to help the Sox end an 86-year championship drought. Hehad a hand in creating a deeply talented minor league system thatproduced the likes of Dustin Pedroia, Jacoby Ellsbury, Jon Lesterand Jonathan Papelbon, who were instrumental in helping the Sox addanother World Series banner just three years later. other talentedminor leaguers helped Theo pull off many trades that have helpedmore than have hurt this team.

In my mind I give Theo Epstein a positive overall grade duringhis time here, and like Terry Francona, wish he didn’t have to go.But perhaps like Francona I guess it’s time to officially close thebook on this period of Red Sox history and turn the page. In thatvein, I’ll offer a quick reply to some of Mike’s comments from lastweek and agree that it’s also time to say goodbye to Tim Wakefieldand Jason Varitek, and I guess David Ortiz too. at this point,changes need to be made in the clubhouse and these three are allimpending free agents – easier to cut ties with them, without theSox having to eat any guaranteed contract money.

To close on the Sox-and as Mike’s favorite announcer TimMcCarver stated during this week’s World Series coverage, the bestnews regarding the team since the middle of August-congrats toOrtiz on becoming the second consecutive Sox player (following TimWakefield) to be honored with the Roberto Clemente Award, givenannually to a player who gives back through acts of charity andcommunity service. It’s easy to forget with all the news of thelast few weeks that some ballplayers do good stuff too.

Mike: OK, I am officially sick of this story.Frankly, I really don’t care if the pitchers were having a beer inthe clubhouse. THEY WEREN’T PLAYING IN THE GAMES! who cares whatthey do?? Sure, they are part of the team and should be supportingtheir teammates, but they weren’t going to impact the action on thefield, since they weren’t going to play. In my mind, that makesthem just glorified fans. So, if they shouldn’t have a beer, let’sblame everyone in the stands who had a beer as the Sox were fallingapart for the collapse. Oh, and I don’t believe for a second thatthey were drinking in the dugout, they might be stupid, but NOBODYis that stupid.

Frankly, I don’t think this “scandal” has anything to do withthe Sox’ collapse. Sure, the pitching was lousy down the stretch,but if they had laid off the Popeye’s and the beer, would it havebeen any different? I don’t think so. Face it, this was a talentedteam that imploded at the worst possible time, and we needsomething to pin it on. too bad we’ve picked the wrong thing.

As for Theo leaving, please can we just get this over with?

Sure, he was part of the greatest era in recent Red Sox history,but he didn’t build those championship teams on his own, and heisn’t the only one who has the formula for building a winner.

I’m not Theo bashing here, he did a good job, but he wasn’tperfect. I’m not sure why he had a mental block at picking ashortstop, and the less said about JD Drew and John Lackey, thebetter. That being said, it would be an amazing thing if he couldbring titles to both the Sox and the Cubs…Theo the”Curse-Breaker”. But lightning doesn’t usually strike twice, andthe expectations in Chicago will be so high for him, I think he’sgoing to have a tough time there, especially if the Cubs struggleout of the gate and don’t make the playoffs for a year or two.Those Cubs fans can be brutal…just ask Steve Bartman.

PATRIOTS RECAP AND WEEKLY PICKS

Todd (3-0 last week, 13-5 season): Sincethere’s no Pats game to preview because it’s their bye week, let’slook back at last week’s come-from-behind win. always fun seeingthe Cowboys lose, isn’t it?

Four turnovers from the Pats can hardly classify their fifthvictory as one of their best games of the year, but it wascertainly the most exciting. Credit the defense for forcing acouple of turnovers of their own and for again proving they canbend to the max but break only minimally, as they held Dallas toonly two field goals in the second half.

It was also readily apparent that Cowboys head coach JasonGarrett was trying too hard not to lose the game in the game fourthquarter instead of trying to win it. it may have been two weekssince the ‘boys blew a 27-3 lead to the Detroit Lions, but thatgame was still fresh on Garrett’s mind. How else to explain takingthe ball out of Tony Romo’s hands not only in the red zone but alsoon Dallas’ final possession, and against a suspect Pats secondaryno less? three straight running plays in the closing minutes mighthave helped burn some time, but they couldn’t completely run outthe clock without picking up a first down.

That conservative play calling (the curse of the Dallas navyblue jerseys rules again?) left Tom Brady plenty of time to calmlymarch the Pats 80 yards down the field for his 31st consecutive winat Gillette Stadium. it was also sweet redemption for AaronHernandez to catch the game-winning touchdown in the closingseconds after his fumble earlier in the game and following hismiscue on the goal line the previous week against the Jets.

While the Patriots’ regular season streak of thirteen straight30-point games came to an end, I think it due more to the fourturnovers than defensive coordinator Rob Ryan’s coaching. In fact,Ryan did not utilize his “amoeba” style of defense very oftenduring the game’s first 57 minutes, but used it almost exclusivelyon the Pats final game-winning touchdown drive.

With regards to the weekly picks, six straight wins for me andback-to-back 1-2 weeks for Mike (following his crazy 11-1 start)has very quickly drawn me even in the season standings. I’ll try tostay hot by taking the Cowboys over the Rams, the Panthersover the Redskins and across the pond in merry old London, EnglandI’ll go with the Bears over the Buccaneers – cheers!

Mike (1-2 last week, 13-5 season): Wow, acouple of bad weeks for me picking games, I’ve let Todd right backinto it. I’m not going to rehash what Todd said about the Patsgame, he did a nice job summing things up.

As for my picks, I’ll take Denver over Miami, NewOrleans over Indy and Oakland over Kansas City.

Mike Higgins and Todd Bloniarz have been observing Bostonsports all of their lives. In their professional lives, Mike is thesports editor for Current Publishing and Todd has called andcovered games for various outlets ranging from high school, collegeand even the Boston Red Sox for one memorable inning onNESN.

Vincent Tabak apologised yesterday for killing Joanna Yeates and putting her parents through ‘hell’.

Speaking at his murder trial for the first time, the 33-year-old insisted he had not meant to harm her and said the crime would haunt him for ever.

He claimed he tried to kiss miss Yeates after she was ‘flirty’ with him, and strangled her in panic when she screamed.

Vincent Tabak, who is in the witness stand today, admits strangling his neighbour Jo Yeates but denies her murder. He broke down in the witness box while describing how he killed her

But his version of events was dismissed by the prosecution at Bristol Crown Court, who said he was a calculating, dishonest and manipulative man who wanted to have sex with the landscape architect and killed her when she resisted his advances.

His voice faltering, Tabak said miss Yeates, his next-door neighbour in Clifton, Bristol, had waved and invited him in when she saw him walking past her kitchen window on December 17.

He said they talked about how neither of their partners was at home that evening.

He added: ‘we talked about her cat that had come into our flat once. She made some flirty comment that the cat “went into places he shouldn’t go – a bit like [her]”.’

At this, Tabak decided to ‘make a pass’ at 25-year-old miss Yeates and said he ‘got the impression she wanted to kiss me’.

He continued: ‘I leaned forward and I think I put one of my hands on her back and tried to kiss her. She started to scream quite loudly. I panicked and put one of my hands over her mouth. I said something like, “I’m sorry, it’s ok, please stop”.’

Taking deep breaths and gripping the sides of the witness stand, Tabak said he pulled his hand away from her mouth, and miss Yeates let out another piercing scream.

TABAK: HOW I CONTEMPLATED SUICIDE BY JUMPING FROM BRIDGE

Vincent Tabak considered throwing himself off a bridge after strangling Joanna Yeates, he told jurors.

Tabak, 33, broke down in tears as he said he thought twice about killing himself.

The 6ft 4in defendant told Bristol Crown Court:

‘The first time was when I was in Cambridge and I think that was that day or the day after Joanna’s body was found and it put me in a state of total despair and I didn’t know what to do…’

After pausing and composing himself, he added: ‘But I just clung on and decided not to do anything.’

His suicidal thoughts continued, the court heard.

Tabak added: ‘After we were back in Bristol, now staying with a friend of Tanja’s (Tanja Morson) I remember reading in one of the newspapers that they (the police) had found DNA, a sample of the DNA found on Joanna’s body, and I thought “that’s it”.’

Recalling his feelings before his arrest, he said: ‘I remember drinking serious amounts of alcohol… and (thinking of) jumping off the bridge.’

The Dutchman put one hand back over her mouth and the other hand around her neck.

Asked by his lawyer, William Clegg QC,to close his eyes and relive the incident, he estimated that he had miss Yeates in his grip for 15 seconds before her body ‘went limp’ and she fell to the floor. Mr Clegg asked if he had meant to kill her or cause her serious harm.

‘no, definitely not,’ replied Tabak, claiming he wanted to calm her down and stop the screaming.

Miss Yeates’s parents, brother and boyfriend Greg Reardon listened intently as Tabak said: ‘I am really sorry for being responsible for her death and I am sorry for putting herparents and Greg through a week of hell, not knowing where she was.’

Removing his glasses and wiping a tearfrom his eye, he went on: ‘I still can’t believe that I am capable of such an act – it will haunt me for the rest of my life, no matter what sentence I get.’

Tabak also told the court: ‘I should have called the police the moment she was dead. I had ample opportunity to call the police and I didn’t do it.’ He said he twice felt suicidal in the weeks after the killing and tried to carry on as normal despite expecting to be arrested ‘any day, any moment’.

But prosecutor Nigel Lickley QC said Tabak was a ‘calculating, dishonest, and manipulative’ person, before, during and after the killing.

He accused Tabak of driving to an Asdasupermarket so that he would appear on its CCTV cameras around the timeof miss Yeates’s death, and said he texted his girlfriend from there asanother way of placing him at a distance from miss Yeates’s flat.

Mr Lickley also suggested Tabak found his neighbour attractive and wanted to have sex with her.

He asked: ‘Had you pulled her top up? Had you touched her breast? Is that what made her scream?’

Tabak shook his head and said: ‘definitely not.’

Referring to the ‘panic’ the defendantsaid he felt when he moved to stop miss Yeates from screaming out, Mr Lickley told him: ‘You were thinking perfectly straight, Vincent Tabak. that woman was in pain as a result of what you were doing to her throat and you knew it. She was struggling to breathe. You just concentrated onmaintaining your grip on her throat.

‘that young woman was resisting you, Vincent Tabak, but you were not going to let her get away.’

Tabak admits the manslaughter of miss Yeates but denies murder. the trial continues.

MORE THAN KISSES? TABAK DENIES WANTING SEX WITH JO YEATES

Mr Lickley said: ‘We heard for the first time yesterday that this case had a sexual element to it.

‘We heard yesterday that you went to kiss miss Yeates. that is sexual contact.’

Tabak replied: ‘I don’t agree.’

Mr Lickley said: ‘You were, in fact, thinking of more… having kisses and kisses and kisses… thinking of having sex with Joanna Yeates.’

Tabak replied: ‘No, I wasn’t.’

He said he made a pass at miss Yeates after she offered him a drink, which he declined.

‘Then we chatted a bit more and then I made the pass at her,’ Tabak told jurors.

‘We were standing quite close and I leaned forward.

‘I leaned forward and tried to put my hand behind her back. She started to scream.’

Mr Lickley interjected: ‘That must have been quite a surprise.

‘So your reaction to that is placing your hand over her mouth… to stop her screaming.’

Tabak said: ‘Yes, and trying to calm her down. I was trying to prevent her from screaming, saying I was sorry, “Stop, I am sorry”.’

Mr Lickley asked Tabak a series of questions about what he did next and Tabak kept replying ‘Can’t remember’.

‘Did you see in her eyes that she was frightened?’ Mr Lickley asked.

‘I can’t remember,’ Tabak replied.

The prosecutor asked: ‘All you had to do, Vincent Tabak, was walk out of the flat?’

Tabak replied, after a pause: “Yes… I didn’t.’

Mr Lickley went on to ask Tabak about what happened when he began to strangle miss Yeates.

‘She was fighting, was she not? She was fighting, she was struggling.

‘Grabbing her arms, causing those bruises, pushing her hard against a rough surface, causing those injuries we will look at in a moment.

‘But you were not going to let her get away, correct?

‘You were not going to let her get away, so you carried on squeezing her throat.’

Tabak replied: ‘I was not considering her getting away. I was not thinking straight… I was panicking.’

Your Ex Boyfriend – How to Get Him to Forgive You

Posted by larry under getting ex back
[7] Comments

Everyone makes mistakes. It’s a fact of life but some mistakes are much harder to forgive than others. if you’ve done something that has caused your boyfriend to end your relationship you are likely looking for ways to convince him you are sorry. if you want to get him to forgive you, you have to begin by looking at the situation through his eyes.

Doing something that hurts another person is always a difficult thing. Whether you cheated on your boyfriend with another man or you simply said something that stung, you must consider how it made him feel. he is likely feeling anger, resentment, sadness and a deep sense of disappointment in you. if you still want him in your life, you have to work to rebuild the relationship. It’s typically never as easy as apologizing and going back to the way things used to be.

The first thing most men want when they’ve been hurt is space. if you want to get him to forgive you, you have to honor his need for time to himself. You may have an urge to contact him and try and convince him that you’ll never do the same thing again. As much as you want to do this, don’t. You should apologize once and then give him time to think things through. Crowding someone when they’ve asked for time alone will only irritate them. It’s best to let him be until he feels it’s time to contact you again. Not only will he spend this time thinking about the event or events that caused him to break up with you, but he’ll also remember how much he cared for you and how important you are to him.

It’s really most important for you to show him that you’ve changed. this is the best way to get him to forgive you. this means that if you were seeing someone else you need to end that relationship. if you lied about something and he found out, you have to show that you are trustworthy and if the reason he left was because you hurt him by something you said, you need to work on controlling your emotions so it doesn’t happen again in the future.

Many couples have gotten back together after breaking up. Forgiveness does happen. Sometimes it simply takes time and patience. if he’s really the man for you, respect his wishes and wait for him to make the first move.

Occupy Facebook

Posted by larry under getting ex back
[33] Comments

I don’t know if you all have heard about it yet, but this Occupy Wall Street thing sounds like a pretty big deal. Recently, the little protest that just won’t go away hit the one month mark, and over that thirty day period, the movement spread to over 100 cities in the United States and made its way to 1,500 cities globally. It’s spreading as quickly as the disease in “Contagion,” except this isn’t as boring and I’m not out $20 for a movie ticket and snacks.

The protestors of Occupy Wall Street are blaming Wall Street for creating an economic collapse that has caused one of the greatest recessions in recent history. Frankly, I don’t understand that part at all. why would anyone be mad about a recession? I don’t know about you all, but recess was always my favorite part of school! anyways, this movement also has something to do with fighting back against the corrosive power of major banks and multinational corporations over the democratic process. at least that’s what I read one time on a website somewhere or something.

To put it simply, this growing movement seems to be about promoting Economic Justice. So what does that mean exactly? Well, I don’t know. I guess it depends partly on how you define “Economic Justice,” and seeing how I failed most of my vocabulary tests in elementary school, I’m probably not the right person to talk to about what defines “Economic Justice.”

But, I will say this: I feel profoundly inspired by this Occupy Wall Street movement. There’s something authentic and motivating and hopeful about a leaderless, people-powered movement. Granted, I have not once protested at an Occupy Wall Street location, but come on, who has that kind of time? I’m a busy guy with moves to make and tricks to turn. I do the best that I can do, you know? (Translation: I honk when I drive by—you’re welcome, protestors!) Plus, most of the people at these protest sites look like they haven’t showered since before Labor Day, and who wants to volunteer their time to be around that stink? Not me.

The rhetorical device of Occupy Wall Street is this juxtaposition of the 99% versus the 1%; more specifically, it’s this notion that “99% of the population” is standing up to the “1% of the population” that is controlling the distribution and management of our nation’s wealth. you often hear people say, “It only takes a few people to ruin it for everyone else,” and with this Occupy Wall Street stuff, that is certainly the case. (Other examples of this idea: farting in elevators, people talking at the movies, AIDS.) But, generally speaking, when it comes to most things, this idea that a few people sour things for the rest of us is nothing more than a myth, an exception rather than the rule. In fact, my belief is that it is much more likely that 99% of people are actually making things worse for the 1%.

For proof of that, look no further than Facebook.

I love Facebook. Jesse Eisenberg—oops, I mean, mark Zuckerberg—has given me the ability to do so many things that I never would have been able to do without Facebook—like, stalking (I mean, befriending) super-hot girls that I’d never have the courage to talk to in person. Listen, I’m not going to be one of these people that pretends like Facebook is the bane of my existence. It is not. The problem with Facebook isn’t Facebook. Rather, it’s the people on Facebook that make Facebook such an unpleasant experience. It’s that case of the 99% (probably you) ruining it for the 1% (me). And, if I’ve learned anything from Occupy Wall Street, it’s that I don’t have to stand for that, it’s that I should protest against the actions that I deem tyrannical (and the ones I’m going to describe definitely are tyrannical), it’s that I should try to grow a beard or something because the homeless-look is so in vogue right now.

Thus, the united 1% will commence Occupy Facebook.

Occupy Facebook is a people-powered movement that will fight against the nonsensical, the annoying, and the unessential nature of every Facebook post, action, and tendency from the 99% that disenfranchises the 1%. at its core, Occupy Facebook is about profusely enforcing a modest list of demands that the 1% has created.

Simply put, we’re sick of the 99% making us feel so loathsome about Facebook every time we log-in and see their stupid faces and stupid posts. below are our demands (and explanations) for the 99%.

(Before I start: dear 99%, I hate you, like, a lot.)

1. Parents that are obsessed with their kids, get off of Facebook – let me be the one to break it to you: nothing about your kid is profound. look, most people do maybe three noteworthy things in their entire life, so the chances that your son or daughter has done something worth glorifying on Facebook has a smaller chance than me getting struck by lightning while playing the lottery as I’m having sex with Natalie Portman. that thing he said in the car the other day wasn’t funny. I’m not impressed that he learned how to walk or that he learned how to talk or even if he got straight A’s on his report card. I’ve literally done all of those things, but you don’t see me bragging about it via Facebook like some cocky little punk. you should know: the only thing I care less about your kid is seeing Facebook posts about your kid.

2. Facebook is free—quit complaining about the “changes” – I’ll never understand why people act so indignant about the changes that Facebook periodically bestows upon us. The changes aren’t even disorientating; at the most, the changes are mildly inconvenient. People have raised more hell about Casey Anthony and the changes to Facebook combined than any cause that has ever actually mattered. I’m simply appalled that so many people have the gall to complain so feverishly about a free service that they are in no way obligated to use. I seriously think some of you only use Facebook to complain about the new changes on Facebook.

3. Stop posting your daily itinerary – I have never once cared about the itinerary of someone’s day. I don’t care what “muscle-day” it is at the gym. I don’t want to know that you’re going to dinner at 7:00, studying at 8:30, and then bleaching your butthole from 9:45 to 10:00. There’s a certain decorum that comes with telling people about your day, and I don’t know if you know this but most of it should go in a private, designated place instead of out in the open where everyone can know how much your life truly stinks—it’s called a day-book or a calendar or a suicide letter.

4. Stop posting so many damn pictures – this demand almost deserves its very own protest, so I’ll try to keep it as brief, but as exhaustive as possible. There’s a new movie starring Justin Timberlake coming out soon. (OMG! HOT! I KNOW!) It’s called “In Time,” and its premise is simple: in the not-too-distant future, the aging gene has been switched off, and to avoid overpopulation, time has become the currency and the way people pay for luxuries and necessities. Each person is given a set amount of time, and once they use up all of their time, they die. What I want to do is carry that premise over to the number of pictures that someone is allowed to post on Facebook.

Everyone is given a set number of pictures that they’re allowed to post on Facebook, and once they have used up all of their allotment, say 300, they’re not allowed to post any more pictures. (In other words, no more having 2,342 pictures of you by yourself in front of a mirror, ladies.) The lower number the better, in my opinion, but we’ll hammer out a working figure once we’re further along in the Occupy Facebook movement. Besides this general rule, here are some other sub-demands:

A. Unless you’re Donald Duck, a Mighty Duck, or an unabashed slut, do not post any pictures of you making your lips look like a duck’s bill. (This is similar to the kissy-lip face, which is also another demand of Occupy Facebook.)

B. Stop photoshopping quotes onto pictures. at what point did pictures become so unaffecting that we needed to put quotes on them? Was that around the same time people started keeping up with the Kardashians? (Honestly, I hope the Mayans were right.)

C. Girls, put some clothes on. call me old fashioned, but I remember when you used to have to buy a magazine to look at pictures of promiscuous (slutty) looking girls.

D. Guys, put your shirts on. Contrary to your delusional self-image, you do not look like a badass. Here’s some free advice: unless you’re rivaling Arnold Schwarzenegger, circa 1970, you should probably take down that picture of you flexing in the mirror. Also, if I can see a John Mayer or Dave Matthews poster in the background of your pictures, that’s not really a good indication of you being a badass either.

E. Stop posting pictures of you holding money. a general rule of thumb: if the amount of cash is so small that you can hold all of it in both of your hands, it’s not impressive enough to take a picture of and then post on Facebook. like they said on the Facebook movie, a billion dollars is cool, not your cashed $500 pay-check from working two weeks at McDonalds. You’re not some “cool” rapper or a gangster or a drug dealer. If by some chance you are, go out and get a real job and help stimulate this economy; then, be a grown up, get a damn bank account, and put your money in there like a fully-functioning member of society.

F. I have a general understanding of what you look like in real life, so photoshopping your teeth pearl white, coloring out that blemish on your forehead, and standing in a way that makes your body appear more voluptuous isn’t really doing yourself any favors. Frankly, I don’t know why anyone would post a lot of photoshopped pictures on Facebook. To me, that person drastically increases his or her chances of having people lament, “that person looks substantially better in pictures than in real-life.” Personally, I pride myself on being remarkably unphotogenic. that way, I’ll always exceed peoples’ expectations when they see me in real-life for the first time. (If you’re wondering, I too have no idea why I haven’t been given some sort of lifetime achievement award for my brilliant worldviews.)

5. Stop pawning off clichés as you being someone who is funny or profound – I hate to do this, but I’m caught between a rock and a hard place. this is going to hurt me more than it’s going to hurt you, but I’m not going to beat around the bush here. most people on Facebook use more clichés than you can shake a stick at. Granted, everything happens for a reason, but learning to not use clichés certainly isn’t rocket science. With this, I’m just giving you a taste of your own medicine. you may think this is a ridiculous demand, but just remember, at the end of the day, no one ever said life was fair.

6. have some fundamental understanding of the written English language – It’s simple: know the proper usage of there/they’re/their, to/too/two, your/you’re, its/it’s, than/then, who’s/whose. I’m not being a grammar-nazi. These things are important. there are rules that need to be followed. this isn’t Vietnam.

7. Leave your relationship successes/troubles off of Facebook – at first, I wanted to make this demand: “If you’re in a relationship, get off of Facebook.” But, I was afraid that Facebook would then evolve into a creepier, darker, more sadistic version of eHarmony. anyways, the point is: I don’t want to hear how awesome your boyfriend/girlfriend is, nor do I want to hear how upset you are about breaking up with your boyfriend/girlfriend. I’m remarkably indifferent about my own relationship history, so what makes you think I’m interested in hearing how hard you cried last night before you went to bed or how happy you were when your boyfriend surprised you with flowers? (Spoiler alert: he probably brought you flowers, because he felt bad about posting that video of you all having sex online.) It’s best if you just keep it simple: it’s okay to post that you’re in a relationship with somebody, but please, do not post anything about your significant other past that, because I can’t think of anything more boring than a monogamous relationship between two people or the subsequent break-up that is absolutely going to happen.

My hope is that you’ll feel compelled to join Occupy Facebook. I encourage you to share this piece of Occupy Facebook literature with the masses: tweet it, email it, share it on Facebook. do anything that you can to get the word out. There’s at least one action you can take to draw attention to those that are part of the 99%. Whenever you see someone disregarding the demands of Occupy Facebook, comment on their post—“I’m part of the 1%. you are part of the 99% #OccupyFacebook.” (And you may want to throw in a link to this somewhat manifesto for good measure.)

I’m not quite sure what Occupy Facebook will become, but the idea is that it will expand into something much larger than I could ever envision. I’m not the figurehead of this movement. I’m just a simple man with a dream—I want to get the conversation started on how the 1% can fight against the 99%. How Occupy Facebook evolves from here is totally dependent upon you all and your support. Be on the right side of history, people, and join this monumentally important movement. (If you don’t, I’ll never talk to you again.)

How To Win Ex Your Girlfriend back Forever

You want to know how to win your ex girlfriend backforever.  The break up was exceedingly painful and you feel that once in a lifetimeis enough for that sort of thing. like many people in your situation, you have made some errors and now is the time to decide where you go from here. You have to figure out and admit what really happened and see what you can reasonably expect to achieve looking at matters long term.   with this evaluation you will then be able to develop your battle plan of action which you will need if you are to win your ex girlfriend back forever.  this article sets out the different facets of such an evaluation.

You must start by looking at what you did and admitting you were responsible for certain acts which have cost you your relationship.  try to be as objective as possible in defining what actually happened and why it happened as it did. You must determine if the things you did were isolated or were but a small part of the real problems that exist.  if eventually you are to have a chance of achieving your objective to win your ex girlfriend back forever, you must look at the whole scene and not just part of it.

When you hurt someone you must show you regret sincerely what you have done.  Your guilt should be compounded by the fact that the person you hurt was close to you.

Now you must make some damage assessment of what you did.  You are now in a position to start trying to assess the damage that was caused by your actions.  is the result so bad that it will be impossible to achieve your objective or is there still a possibility that you could get back together forever.

Your girlfriend may think differently from you.  she may not want to come back or she says she is going to move on, and you may be obliged to do so also.  if you don’t find out how she sees things, you may find yourself losing a lot of time and effort for nothing, when, all along, she has definitively decided that the relationship is ended.

Where you are lucky enough that she is still willing to talk to you, it is important that you let her speak.  It may not give you much pleasure to hear what she has to say to you but you will have to hear her out.  You are not in the best of situations to defend how you have behaved.  her telling you what you have done wrong may make you more serious about tackling the problems, even although you are already aware of what she is saying to you.

You have clearly lacked respect for your ex in the past and you are going to have to rectify this if you are going to succeed to win you ex girlfriend back forever.  Respect means how you treat her, how you listen to her, how you consider her feelings, and how you satisfy her wants.

Visualizing the total scene enables you to make a complete battle planan go into action properly prepared.  It is the opening move when you are working out how to win your ex girlfriend back forever.

The above steps are what I followed when I broke up with my ex,and they are not my own ideas.   I looked for help from T ‘Dub’ Jackson when I did not know how I was going to get my ex back forever. T ‘Dub’ has written a simple, easy to read guide called “The Magic of making Up”.  It worked fantastically for us and with a little luck it will do the same for you.

In the event of a break-up, people might tell you to go on with life, stop thinking about your ex-lover and look for new horizons. But what if moving on does not sound right and you understand that you are destined to be as one with your ex? Anybody can make mistakes, and after a break-up, you might have the feeling that your ex was the perfect choice for you and you will in no way find someone like them again. if you would like to get your ex back, there are few tips that you can try to fill up your life with love again.

Firstly, you should have the right attitude to win your ex back. going into panic mode or letting go easily will not bring you any triumph in returning to your relationship. Another vital thing to know is that begging or convincing someone to get back with you won’t get you anywhere. Instead, it will only drive your ex far away from you. No need to stalk them or spam them with texts or emails. have no or very less contact with your ex after a breakup. Providing some space initially is very vital. keep some distance and give them a chance to miss you.

The post breakup phase is the time to work on yourself while showing your ex that your regard their decision. what you really need to do to get your ex back is make some changes for the better. if there were few points in your personality which your ex always wanted you to work upon or change, this might be the right time to do it. You will be able to show your ex how well you respect the opinion of your ex and to what extent you are ready to go to get them back when you inculcate those changes and start working on them. do something that will charm your ex’s attention and interest. Improve yourself and remain confident.

Though you are not supposed to chase behind your ex, it is amazing to be around them occasionally and show them your improvised spirit and confidence and let them get attracted to it. Some time spaced out works on relationships for the better, and when your ex sees you after quite a while, ensure you come as breath of fresh air, but with your same old personality that he once fell in love with. your positive attitude and new changes are certain to capture his attention which will help you get your ex back.

The one thing to take good care of during the total process is avoiding any mess-ups. This implies you have to keep yourself from revealing any weaknesses during this period, becoming panicky by situations or losing hope.

Once you are sure your ex is behaving in a different way around you and showing good response, you can casually ask them out (if they haven’t already made this move themselves). the knack here is to make this meeting or hang-out remarkable for both of you and blow your ex’s mind. once you have them excited about you again, nothing can stop you from getting back together.
