| Replacing cliches not the answer in marriage
Dear Carolyn: I recently have become romantically involved with a friend of a few years. We are both choosing to remain in loveless marriages for the sake of our children. Just because I made the mistake of marrying someone I shouldn't have, doesn't mean my children should suffer a broken home, but I can't deny myself the new love I've found. .
Bolshevik activists detained in Moscow
Twenty-five Bolshevik activists were detained in Moscow Saturday for allegedly trying to hold an unapproved rally under the guise of a wedding, police said.
A police spokesman told RIA Novosti the members of the banned National Bolshevik Party all resisted arrest when officers showed up at Red Square to disperse them.
"The incident took place at around 11:45 a.m. Moscow time (07:45 GMT), when a group of young people imitating a wedding procession tried to enter Red Square and hold an unsanctioned rally," he said.
"The detainees say they are members of the banned National Bolshevik
Party."
At least one of the activists will face criminal charges for allegedly spraying a police officer in the face with pepper spray, the spokesman said.

Or make your own invitations, said Sharon Naylor, author of 1,000 Best Wedding Bargains. She recommends Mountaincow.com for invitation software and paper (shown in photo), with CDs starting at $30.
