My wife and I are in the midst of a long (15 months +) rather contentious divorce. Her lawyers took my deposition last week. My lawyer and I are due to take hers this week. My deposition was pretty unremarkable - no real bombshells.

My lawyer called this morning to suggest we may not really need my wife's deposition. From the questions I was asked, we got a pretty good idea of what their tack will be in settlement discussions. We also aren't really looking for any particular information from my wife. We have what we need to support our position in negotiations, or, if it comes to it, at trial.

It seems like kind of a no brainer to cancel the deposition, save c$1,500 in the process and possibly continue to lower the level of acrimony in the process.

Does anybody think it would be a bad idea in the circumstances to cancel the deposition?

Thanks alot.

i really want to lose 15-20 lbs by january. here's this diet i have put myself on to lose the weight:
breakfast: 1 small clementine [40 calories]
lunch: granola bar [100 calories]
snack(s): fat-free, sugar-free yogurt [60 calories]
rice cake [50 calories]
dinner: small salad with wish bone salad spritzers dressing and croutons [about 150-200 calories]

i go to the gym about twice a week; i usually use the elliptical for an hour and the treadmill for an hour, so i burn at least 200 calories.

i am 5'4.5" and around 113 lbs (maybe a little less im not sure). i am a 16 year old female and i have a small frame.

do you think i will lose the weight by january if i keep this up?

I Think he should have consulted her. I dont really love the name. Johhny and Alli? No. I understand why lucas is so upset but sami is trying to do something good for her family. He should try to be a little supportive. Its not like she hasnt been around him lately.

It's a difficult pill to swallow, one that eventually made me lose my faith. This is not to pick on you or to be inflammatory. I sincerely would like to know how you overcame your personal struggle.

How did you manage to learn to love God despite his form of justice?

Thanks for your sincere answers.

I know the stethoscopes used in the NICU are different than regular stethoscopes, and I've looked at some, but I don't know which stethoscope is the best one.

Her regular stethoscope is a Littmann, and I know she likes it a lot. I've been looking at the 28" Littmann Classic II Infant Stethoscope. Is that a good choice? I found it on sale for about $70. I wouldn't mind spending up to $100 for one that's good quality.

My friend just hired a woman who was fired for stealing money for a toy fund to clean his house. I told him she was a thief, but he doesnt seem to care.
He hired her because his daughter told him it was a mis understanding and she was wrongly fired.
Now the woman has lied to his daughter and told her she had a doctors appointment and asked her to babysit her kids. Well, she didnt come back to get her kids. The daughter was calling all over the place to find her and she was found to be a big fat liar and never had a doctors appointment. She was out doing who knows what.
He still insist on keeping her as a housekeeper. In spite of the fact he's been told she steals and lies.
4 yrs ago, he sold a car to a girl and she never paid for it, she also stole money from him. He never took her to small claims or never went to get his car, he just let her run on over him.
He just lets people crap all over him. Whats the deal?
