The act of releasing a disgusting, rank fart underneath the covers while forcing your partner to ingest the nauseating fumes often times causing them to throw up and/or lose conciousness, while your head above the covers is safe from the stench.
While Tina and I were in bed last night, I was in a joking mood and decided to dutch oven her. At first she was very upset but then she began to vomit violently because of the nasty fumes.

The action of trapping an unsuspecting person in a place which you have released a deadly fart cloud. This "place" can be under the bed covers, in a sleeping bag, in a locked car, in a closet, or any place that will trap the cloud allowing maximum fumage.
On our camping trip, Joe Bob gave me a dutch oven by farting into my sleeping bag and zipping me up in it. I survived to tell the story.

When a person lying in bed with spouse pulls the covers all the way over their head & farts.
"She didn't want to wake up, so I put her in the dutch oven for a minute and watched her struggle to full consciousness."
*true story.
*true story.

Covering a person with a blanket, and then farting under the blanket, making sure the fart remains trapped in the blanket bio-sphere. The desired effect is that your dutch oven occupant will have no choice but to inhale the noxious fumes.
Scotty was being such a douche, Nick and I had little recourse but to give him a dutch oven.

A Dutch oven is where you let of a gastly fart under the bed covers and trap it while your girlfriend is out of the room; when she gets back in bed, you force her innocent face under the sheets to see if the odour makes her vomit.
"Pete, last night i Dutch ovened my girlfriend! I wish it had made her vomit though..."

The act of crapping in a skillet or pan and leaving the lid on it for a victim to discover.
I left Billy a Dutch Oven on the stove. He was pissed.
Dutch Oによって 2014年09月11日(木)
While in bed, you fart then pull the covers over the head of whomever is in bed with you. You hold the covers over his or her head until the stink leaves.
Last night in bed, my boyfried pulled a dutch oven on me.

Paula Wolfson, wtop.com
WASHINGTON - Shopping isn't the only Black Friday tradition.
The day after Thanksgiving, we also deal with all those leftovers.
For inspiration, WTOP turned to Adam Sobel, executive chef at Bourbon Steak in Georgetown.
He says there are few holiday foods better than a good old-fashioned turkey sandwich or a hearty soup made from the turkey carcass and other leftovers.
But for something totally different, he suggests taking those sweet potatoes and turning them into ice cream or using the meat off a turkey leg for a post-shopping spree frittata.
Below are the recipes for each.
1. Sweet Potato Ice Cream Yields about 1 quart
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1 cup whole milk
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- Table salt
- 5 large egg yolks
- 1 cup cooked, mashed sweet potato or yams
- 1 vanilla bean scraped
- Pinch of ginger
- Pinch of nutmeg
- Pinch of cinnamon
In a medium sauce pan, mix 1 cup of the cream with the milk, sugar, and a pinch of salt. Warm the cream mixture over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves and tiny bubbles begin to form around the edge of the pan, 3 to 4 minutes.
Prepare an ice bath by filling a large bowl with several inches of ice water. Set a smaller metal bowl (one that holds at least 1-1/2 quarts) in the ice water. Pour the remaining cup of cream into the inner bowl (this helps the custard cool quicker when you pour it in later). Set a fine strainer on top. Whisk the egg yolks in a medium bowl.
In a steady stream, pour half of the warm cream mixture into the egg yolks, whisking constantly to prevent the eggs from curdling.
Pour the egg mixture back into the saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly and scraping the bottom with a heatproof rubber spatula until the custard thickens slightly (it should be thick enough to coat the spatula and hold a line drawn through it with a finger), 4 to 8 minutes.
An instant-read thermometer should read 175° to 180°F at this point. Don't let the sauce overheat or boil, or it will curdle. Immediately strain the custard into the cold cream in the ice bath. Press firmly on the strainer with the spatula to extract as much flavor as possible.
Cool the custard to below 70°F by stirring it over the ice bath. Stir mashed sweet potato, vanilla extract, ginger, nutmeg, and cinnamon into the cooled custard. Refrigerate the custard until completely chilled, at least 4 hours. Then freeze the custard in your ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions. Transfer the ice cream to an air-tight container, and freeze for at least 4 hours or up to 2 weeks.
2. Turkey Frittata
- 6 eggs, beaten
- 1-ounce Parmesan, grated
- 2 - ounces White Cheddar, grated
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- Pinch salt
- 1 teaspoon butter
- ½ cup blanched chopped broccoli
- 1/2 cup chopped roasted Vidalia onion
- 1/2 cup chopped roasted dark meat turkey
- 1 tablespoon chopped parsley leaves
Preheat oven to broil setting.
In medium size bowl, using a fork, blend together eggs, Parmesan, pepper, and salt. Heat 12-inch non-stick, oven safe saute pan over medium high heat. Add butter to pan and melt. Add broccoli, Vidalia onions and chopped turkey to pan and saute for 2 to 3 minutes.
Pour egg mixture into pan and stir with rubber spatula then sprinkle in white cheddar. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes or until the egg mixture has set on the bottom and begins to set up on top. Sprinkle with parsley.
Place pan into oven and broil for 3 to 4 minutes, until lightly browned and fluffy. Remove from pan and cut into 6 servings. Serve immediately.

Returning To Italy
BMC Racing Team Chief Medical Officer Dr. Max Testa said special medical transport is being arranged for Ballan's return to his home in Italy. Since the accident on Dec. 20, the former world road champion has endured surgery to repair a double fracture of his left leg, had his spleen removed and nursed a broken rib. "Once Alessandro is back in Italy, we'll make sure everything went well during the flight," Testa said. "Depending on the outcome of that evaluation, we can determine the next step in his rehabilitation."
Appreciative Of Good Care
Ballan said he is especially anxious to be re-united with his two daughters. His wife, Daniela, has been with him since the day after the crash but his daughters have been in the care of their grandmother. "This has been particularly difficult because it's been a long time since I've been home," Ballan said. "Training camp started in mid-December and then I couldn't be home and together with my entire family for the holidays. So I'm very appreciative of the support from Dr. (Dario) Spinelli and the BMC Racing Team and the medical care I received here in Spain. Plus, all the messages of encouragement have given me more strength every day."
Special Arrangements
BMC Racing Team President/General Manager Jim Ochowicz said although Ballan will be unable to join his teammates and management and staff at Friday's media day in Belgium, special arrangements will be made to make sure he is a part of the activities. "We are extremely pleased at the rapid progress that Alessandro has accomplished while under the excellent care of the Hospital Dénia Marina Salud," Ochowicz said. "I can't imagine how much joy he and his family will enjoy when they are reunited. We look forward to having him back in the races in the coming months."

Dear OncoLink "Ask The Experts,"
My mother had esophageal cancer 2 1/2 years ago and was treated with an esophagectomy. She is still using a J tube for nutrition. Nausea has been a constant companion since surgery, and has recently gotten worse. She is only using about 2 cans of Nutren per day, so caloric intake is under 1000 per day. She recently had to go to the hospital due to the increased nausea, dehydration, etc. Do have suggestions for my mom to increase calories, decrease her nausea?
Katrina Claghorn, MS, RD, Registered Dietitian at the Abramson Cancer Center of the University of Pennsylvania, responds:
There are a number of things that you may want to consider. When a person experiences nausea while on a jejunostomy feeding tube the first thing we generally adjust is the rate of administration and the volume of the feedings. Sometimes a person may not tolerate certain ingredients or the composition of the formula the tube feeding product and so other brands may be tried. Most clinics have a dietitian who can help or contact the dietitian affiliated with the company that supplies your tube feeding supplements and equipment.
Following an esophagogastrectomy foods should initially be limited to a 1/4-cup or 60 cc at a time. Most people can eventually tolerate larger amounts. However, when experiencing nausea again limit intake to these small portions. Fluids should be taken between eating food. Generally, by alternating eating and drinking every hour, fluid and calorie needs can be achieved. If fluids can't be tolerated orally, water can be poured through the feeding tube often at a higher rate than the tube feeding can be administered.
Also, contact her medical team who may be able to prescribe anti-nausea medication. Acupuncture has been shown to help relieve nausea in some patients. If you use an acupuncturist may sure they are credentialed and are knowledgeable about the impact of cancer on the body.
Aug 23, 2012 - Adding dexamethasone to prochlorperazine on days two and three, following palonosetron and dexamethasone on day one, reduces delayed nausea in patients receiving chemotherapy containing a platinum-based drug or an anthracycline, according to research published online Aug. 20 in the Journal of Clinical Oncology.

Performance on the Pitch: Women's Soccer Cleats
Traction, agility and control: Find women's soccer cleats that deliver everything your game needs.
Choose from a wide collection of performance-proven soccer cleats for women. It's all about remarkable stability and traction on the pitch. Find women's outdoor soccer cleats as well as soccer shoes designed for indoor play.
Look for a lightweight leather or synthetic leather upper that provides a feel that is both tough and breathable. Low-profile cushioning in your shoe's midsole provides the extra comfort you need.
Select women's soccer shoes that matches your playing surface. Get the quality you need from the brands you trust, like adidas®, Nike®, Puma®, Umbro®, and Diadora®.
Buying Tips
Select your soccer cleats based on your playing surface and skill level.
Molded cleats are affixed to the bottom of your soccer shoe as non-removable hard plastic or rubber. This type of soccer shoe is idea for beginning and intermediate players and suited for a variety of field types, including firm ground.
Detachable cleats are removable and can be screwed on and off for easy replacement once they become worn. These cleats can be changed based on field conditions or weather and are ideal for experienced players who need a custom-like experience on the pitch.
Indoor soccer shoes resemble low-cut athletic shoes and feature a flat, rubbery bottom for traction on indoor courts and fields. Athletes playing on turf should opt for turf soccer shoes with a specialized rubber outsole that provides the right amount of traction. Short rubber studs are typically featured on a turf shoe's sole.
Expert Advice
Soccer cleats typically come with a fit that is more narrow than other types of athletic footwear. Players often take great time and care to break in their shoes for more comfortable play.
Soccer shoes with leather uppers offer strength and durability, but do not perform well in inclement weather. Shoes designed with synthetic uppers hold up better in a variety of weather conditions and are easier to break in for comfort.

Hard working line brings AC back
Thanks to the steady hard work of the offensive line throughout the season, the Flying Jets football team has matured into what many who have followed AC over the years love to refer to as, "Adams Central Football," a varying mixture of passing and running with a good doze of bruising backs and a strong offensive line.
That success can be evidenced in the stats of running back Spencer Sharp and tailback Colby Cauble. Sharp has rushed for 1,200 yards so far this season and Cauble has come on strong and is right around the 1,000 mark in rushing yards.
Much of that firepower, says head coach Michael Mosser, has come about as a result of a quickly maturing, steady offensive line. ...

How to Install Pocket Doors
A pocket door slides into a metal and wood cage that is installed as the walls are framed. In some older homes, a sliding pocket door was used to create privacy and separate a living room from a parlor or dining room. The door disappeared into the wall when it wasn't being used, but was convenient to pull out when needed.
The clever design of a pocket door continues to be a space-saving solution in today's homes, especially in a small bathroom where a hinged door swing takes up too much floor place. The framing hardware within the cavity of the wall allows the door to slide in and out of the wall, a solution in a room where floor or wall space is at a premium.
A pocket door is also a good choice for a bathroom for someone who uses a wheelchair or walker because it's easy to open and close.
Although the hardware can work on any type of door — solid or hollow core or flat or paneled — it's a good idea to buy a pocket door hardware system that includes the door. For a bathroom, consider a door with a mirror on one or both sides, which is a convenient and useful choice.
You'll find a pocket door frame hardware system for doors 11/8 inches to 13/4inches thick by 6 feet 8 inches high. The hardware is an improvement over the old-fashioned door in the wall because it can't stick or come off its track.
The system is made of wheel assemblies that roll in boxed tracks that prevent the doors from derailing, floor anchors that maintain proper distance between the jamb studs, and door glides that center the door as it glides into the open position. Pocket door locks, available in several styles and finishes, are designed with a recessed handle that folds flat against the edge of the door when it is in the recess.
Before you begin, read the directions for the pocket door kit you're installing to get an overview of the process and what's involved. All pocket door systems are installed in basically the same way, but the manufacturer's directions should give you the best advice for installing that particular product.
Construct the rough opening or modify the existing wall to fit the rough opening dimensions for the door jamb supplied by the manufacturer of the hardware.
Make sure that all studs are plumb (perfectly vertical) and the header is level.
Follow the manufacturer's instructions and cut the pocket door header-and-track assembly to length with a hacksaw.

It's common knowledge that Magic Johnson is a Lakers basketball legend, but we bet you don't know that his daughter, Elisa Johnson, has serious game in the style department. We discovered the college freshman via her Instagram account, where she posts a steady stream of Rihanna-esque outfits peppered with a healthy dose of Givenchy.
Guess Which NBA Legend Has An Incredibly Stylish Daughter?
- 1 of 21
Browse through her pictures to get a peek at her edgy street sensibility, and to gain the pleasure of knowing you discovered her back when—because we have a hunch this girl is on the brink of blowing up.
- 2 of 21
While Johnson is no stranger to designer items, you can also count on her for an introduction to incredible indie design, like Rik Villa's signature paisley pieces.
- 3 of 21
You know you've got style when you can make runs in your tights look good.
- 4 of 21
Croc-embossed creepers and gold ankle cuffs are totally on point.
- 5 of 21
Just when you try to pigeonhole Johnson's style, she'll surprise you with an effortlessly executed girly ensemble.
- 6 of 21
While her outfits are stunning, you'd be remiss to ignore Johnson's impressive jewelry. Her Celine chain choker makes a regular cameo.
- 7 of 21
Givenchy sweatshirts are the calling card of street style savants.
- 8 of 21
Forgive us for dwelling on her likeness to Rihanna, but the resemblance of Johnson in her Herve Leger bikini is striking.
- 9 of 21
Who says a tank dress has to be simple? Take it to the next level with a pile of gold accessories.
- 10 of 21
From the handful of rings to the cobalt snakeskin Celine bag, this may be the ultimate accessory shot.
- 11 of 21
Note to self: sneakers, skinnies, and a devastatingly cool t-shirt (Givenchy in Johnson's case) make a perfectly cool off-duty ensemble.

Tested by the Good Housekeeping Research Institute
Innate MC2 Container Food Storage
Product Review
About GHRI RatingsX
Good Housekeeping Research Institute (GHRI) ratings are based on laboratory tests conducted by our scientists at the U.S.'s foremost consumer products evaluation laboratory, and incorporate consumer feedback. GHRI is situated on the 29th floor of the Hearst Tower in New York City and is staffed by chemists, engineers, nutritionists, textile specialists, culinary experts, and other scientists.
Using state-of-the-art equipment, GHRI experts test consumer products — from microwaves to mascaras — for their performance, safety, and, with the help of volunteer testers, ease of use.
Established in 1900, before there was a Federal Drug Administration or a Federal Trade Commission, GHRI has always been the most trusted source consumers can rely on to choose products that are safe and effective.
This shallow 3-cup stainless-steel container has a silicone lid that expands to make a bowl for microwaving. In our tests, the MC2 was far from airtight, so we can only recommend it for short-term storage. Since it didn't leak, you could take the chance of tossing it in a lunch bag. And even though it's made of stainless steel, it's not invincible — when dropped from a countertop, it dented. innate-great.com
Available with lids in blue, green, or red.

This is the 5th rug my wife and I have now ordered. Can't beat the quality and colors. Very pleased... For a 5th time :-)RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
The colors weren't exactly as pictured, but size was perfect! And the actual colors work! And the price was the best I found anywhere online for this product! Delivery was prompt and the rug arrived in pristine condition. I am very pleased with this purchase.RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
I bought this and another braided rug and they are wondeful! Great quality, came on time, packed and shipped well. Really a great value!RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
The brown is a lot lighter than in the picture - more like tan than dark brown, and the overall look is darker and much more blue/purple. A bit thin and definitely needs a pad. However, despite all this, I really like it in our space and the color coordinates with our multi-color slate hearth.RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
We are very pleased with the quality of the two rugs we purchased. The midnight braided color goes very well in our rustic knotty-pine family room. They added just the right amount of color to the wood floor. Thank you for making these beautiful rugs available to us!RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
Liked this rug, but the coloring is off too much, very dark on one side, didn't fit my decor. Returned it.RECOMMENDED: No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
The rugs are beautiful and perfect for my room. The price was right and they came a lot sooner than I expected. I would definitely order through Rugs USA again!RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
I love my new rug. The quality is excellent and the colours what I was expecting. The service and delivery was as advertised. When I called the agent said I might have to wait for custom order but this did not turn out to be the case. There was no mention of this possibility on the website when I ordered.RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
Love them!!!
I am very pleased with this rug. The colors were vibrant and the rug feels soft and comfy underfoot. I really think the quality is great and I would definitely purchase again from RugsUSA. Thanks for a beautiful addition to my home.RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
Very nice....my kitchen looks GREAT...RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
Great colors, vibrant, well-made. Just received recently but am pleased so far.RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
This rug was exactly what I wanted. It was a bargain for the price. I ordered the blue and it is beautiful...RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
Very beautiful and well made rugRECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
We very much liked the color and quality. Seems very durable.
Looks great! I would buy this again in a New York minute.RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
Just bought this rug. I'm not happy that the braid pieces pop up and are broken off. I'm also not happy that they are sewn together with fishing line and there are pieces of fishing line left long all over the rug. I had to crawl around on it on my hands and knees to remove the long pieces of line so my dogs wouldn't chew on them. I do love the color or this rug but the construction leaves a lot to be desired.RECOMMENDED: No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
The rug is every thing I hoped for. Just love it. Makes my family room "pop"RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
This rug has perfect colors and feels very substantial. I haven't had it for very long, but it seems to be holding up well (it is in my kitchen). It seems easy to clean. Also, I was very happy to be able to purchase a household product that was made in the USA.RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
I bought the 12x15' rug in Java, and it's beautiful. Top quality!RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
very satisfied

This item is a Christmas gift for my niece that loves the Nutcracker.I am extremely impressed by the outstanding quality and workmanship. I generally dislike ordering this type of gifts from a catalog but I am more than satisfied with it.
Not what I expected

This was going to be X-Mas present for my BFF as her extensive nutcracker collection perished in the massive fire that destroyed her home this past January. The quality of this nutcracker will be a poor substitute.

We bought a Christmas gift for a friend. She was thrilled. We first ordered the same item from another company and paid to have it shipped in two days. We didn't receive it, started to panic. Called and canceled the item with the other company. Found the item on line with Hammacher Schlemmer. They special delivered it to our friend the day before Christmas. We were elated!!

Hi everyone.
Me again. Could I please as for prayers or good thoughts for my lil guy? He goes into the hospital early in the morning to have tubes put in and his adenoids removed. This poor lil guy has had 7 double ear infections this year alone. Any way, I know this is an easy and simple procedure, BUT it still worries me whenever they put a child under.
Thank you so much.

Garland of Hours features cello, unconventional style
WTOP's Tim Bracken reports.
Tim Bracken, wtop.com
WASHINGTON - Since the mid-1990s, local musician Amy Domingues has used her strength as a cellist to augment the music of artists such as Ted Leo, Bob Mould, Fugazi, Mary Timony, Brandon Butler and other local musicians.
Domingues isn't just a session musician. Over the past 12 years, she has been honing her skills as a songwriter with her solo project, Garland of Hours.
On Sunday, Garland of Hours will bring its experimental cello-driven folk rock to a 9:30 p.m. performance at Comet Ping Pong in D.C. on Connecticut Avenue.
"The band has included many people over the years," Domingues wrote in an email to WTOP.
"Right now, it's me, my husband Stefan Bauschmid on drums and Mary Timony on guitar when she can fit it into her busy schedule!"
The band's latest album, "Lucidia," is part experimental-folk, part art-rock. The arrangements are sparse and elegant, and Domingues's unconventional vocal style and confident playing are front and center.
"Garland of Hours' sound gets called chamber pop much of the time," Domingues says. "But I don't feel these are really pop songs with a cello."
The band's songs are a bit more complex than what most would describe as pop. Domingues describes the band's sound as "somewhat darker in tone."
"Many of the songs have moments of improvisation, so you don't hear the same thing each time you hear us live," she says.
Domingues recently took a two-year break from rock music to study at the Peabody Conservatory of Music in Baltimore.
"I studied historical performance," she says. "Specifically for the cello and viola da gamba, a fretted seven-stringed bowed instrument popular in the 16th to 18th centuries."
Today, Domingues mixes her conservatory skills with her love for performing in rock bands.
"There is a lot of freedom playing in a rock band, but certain kinds of classical and traditional music also offer opportunities for improvisation as well," Domingues says. "So at this point they are equally stimulating and enjoyable to me."
