Harriette Cole: Why does my husband get to have it both ways?
Published Thu, 21 Nov 2024 23:00:55 GMT
DEAR HARRIETTE: My husband is the king of double standards. He is constantly preaching about the way that things should be done. Never mind that he regularly does things any old way.For example, he talks about the importance of not leaving food out in the kitchen because it will attract mice and roaches. Good point. And yet, at least once or twice a week, he eats nuts and leaves the shells all over the kitchen floor.Whenever I say something to him about his behavior, he chews me out. How is it that he gets to have it both ways?Sick of HimDEAR SICK OF HIM: Get ready for a fight of sorts. Sounds like you have to stand up to your husband with examples. The next time he goes off on you about what you are doing wrong, stop him in his tracks.First, admit to whatever he has addressed. If you should have handled it differently, own up to that. But then pivot to his behavior.Related ArticlesAdvice | Harriette Cole: It was a mistake to reveal my divorce plans before I was ready ...Nationals 2023 Preview: Long road back begins now

Very few people thought the Washington Nationals — even with the likes of Josh Bell and Juan Soto in the lineup — would contend for a playoff spot last spring. And many had them finishing under .500 (I had projected 69-93).But very few had the 2022 season in mind when they finished with a 55-107 record where they never reached .500, even for a day after dropping their opener (2-3, 4-5, and 6-7 was the best they could do). Also, they traded their generational talent Juan Soto a few years before the All-Star hit free agency.If 2020 (26-34 and last in the NL East) was a disappointment and 2021 (67-95 plus the late-July fire sale of Max Scherzer and Trea Turner) was disturbing, 2022 had the feeling of a thud.More Washington Nationals NewsMore MLB NewsMore Sports NewsAs the 2023 season nears, the road back to respectability is underway.

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Kyrie Irving — he says now — wanted to finish out this season in Brooklyn. He has five games left instead to potentially finish this season out of the playoffs with Dallas.And the enigmatic guard suddenly has more questions — none having to do with Earth’s shape — about his basketball future as he prepares to become a free agent in the summer.As for the current state of the team?“It kind of looks like a little bit of a cluster (expletive),” Irving said.The Mavericks’ 116-108 loss in Philadelphia on Wednesday night dropped them to 8-14 since Irving was acquired in February and has a franchise that reached the Western Conference finals last season on the brink of missing the playoffs this season.Dallas is 37-40 and in 11th place in the West. The NBA play-in tournament includes teams with the seventh through 10th-highest winning percentages in each conference. “It’s been a scramble since I’ve been here,” Irving said.Irving was expected ...Tennis umpire handed lifetime ban for manipulating scoring

He can no longer officiate or attend events organized by tennis governing bodies.___More AP tennis: https://apnews.com/hub/tennis and https://twitter.com/AP_SportsSourceAumenta la amenaza de tormentas fuertes en Estados Unidos para este viernes

(CNN) — “Old Masters” such as Leonardo da Vinci, Sandro Botticelli and Rembrandt may have used proteins, especially egg yolk, in their oil paintings, according to a new study.Trace quantities of protein residue have long been detected in classic oil paintings, though they were often ascribed to contamination. A new study published Tuesday in the journal Nature Communications found the inclusion was likely intentional — and sheds light on the technical knowledge of the Old Masters, the most skilled European painters of the 16th, 17th, or early 18th century, and the way they prepared their paints.“There are very few written sources about this and no scientific work has been done before to investigate the subject in such depth,” said study author Ophélie Ranquet of the Institute of Mechanical Process Engineering and Mechanics at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology in Germany, in a phone interview. “Our results show that even with a very small amoun...Stroke survivor’s captivating piano concert brings joy to BHNH staff

LONDON — In his first overseas visit as U.K. monarch, King Charles III is doing little to dispel the notion he’s a political animal at heart.During a state banquet speech at Schloss Bellevue, the official residence of the German president, Charles talked up politicians’ “vital” efforts to cut carbon emissions, praised Germany’s “extraordinary generosity” in hosting Ukrainian refugees, took a swipe at Vladimir Putin’s Russia, and attempted a patch-up job on U.K.-German relations frayed by Brexit.Charles had previously vowed to take a restrained approach as king, having earned a reputation as prince of Wales for speaking out on hot-button political issues — and even lobbying British ministers over policies he disagreed with.His mother, Queen Elizabeth, had famously avoided political topics as monarch, and Charles said last year that his elevation meant it would “no longer be possible for me to give so much of my time and energies t...Red Sox celebrate Opening Day at Fenway Park with game against the Orioles
