The turkey is moist and has a hint of fruit flavor, just enough to give it a sweetness which is nice. The wine.......you really don't taste it, I think it just keeps the bird moist. The broth is so rich I saved most of it, froze it for my next batch of potato soup. Thanks for the recipe. I will definitely use it again.lexbourbongirlhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5090591139439935093.post-50379883153932760112013-11-11T12:28:53.361-08:002013-11-11T12:28:53.361-08:00I have an 8qt slowcooker, I never thought it could...I have an 8qt slowcooker, I never thought it could be used to cook Thanksgiving dinner.

Thanks for this great, cheap, tasty, meat (I used broth with lemon juice as my budget doesn't stretch to cooking wine - even the cheap stuff!) Thanks - here is how it turned out!

I used a 2 1/2 pound turkey breast and made some modifications. I added approximately 1 and 1/2 tablespoons of poultry seasoning, five whole garlic cloves and a quartered Macintosh apple. In addition, the wine didn't cover the turkey so I filled the bottle with water and added it as well. It was incredibly moist and flavorful, even three days later. Thank you again! I will be making this dish again and again!Michele Robbinshttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5090591139439935093.post-52269803548503480442012-11-20T20:28:23.898-08:002012-11-20T20:28:23.898-08:00Made this tonight, so super easy!

I used Chicken broth instead of Wine since I didn't have any. My 7 year old on Monday morning before school asked me if we had any left over and I told him yes. Then he tells me we better have it again for dinner. He doesn't each much leftovers but he loved the turkey.

And since he's a handful at times, I didn't want to have to tend over the oven all day cooking a turkey breast, I'm SO glad I found this. So now I can just cook it in the crockpot and forget it. I'm only planning on having stuffing (prepacked, it's not stove top, it's another brand) and making some steamer vegetables (the frozen ones you just pop in the microwave in the bag). It makes things much easier. Maybe I'll grab a can of cranberry sauce. I already have turkey gravy that's canned that I bought on sale last year, so I don't need that. So, I guess nothing from scratch, but it'll be easier on me.Jenniferhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5090591139439935093.post-52456969993334749542012-04-14T17:30:25.363-07:002012-04-14T17:30:25.363-07:00Best ever!

I'm just becoming acquainted with my crock pot, and I'm loving this blog!

It's just me for Thanksgiving (I'm in Texas, my family is in Illinois and California), and my tradition is "take the four day weekend and clean out the garage" - it's supposed to be 70 and sunny on Thursday, so that's the "get everything out of the garage and sweep" day.

I'm really excited about the idea of a turkey breast that I can just throw in the crock pot in the morning, then ignore while I work. With any luck, the turkey and I will be done at the same time!brambleyotehttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5090591139439935093.post-67778960689163389132011-11-15T21:45:50.355-08:002011-11-15T21:45:50.355-08:00Trying this out.

I will never make a whole turkey in the oven again (I will leave that to my mom when she hosts Thanksgiving). My mom is actually visiting this week, so I am making this delicious turkey breast so we can have a mini-thanksgiving dinner since we cannot be together on Thanksgiving this year. We will have the cream cheese/sour cream mashed potatoes and some veggies and we will all yell "GRACE" before we eat. :) Thanks firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5090591139439935093.post-30261162254014152832011-08-18T05:00:16.635-07:002011-08-18T05:00:16.635-07:00Well, last month I finally decided that the turkey...Well, last month I finally decided that the turkey breast (5#, bone-in) in my freezer was taking up too much space, so I started looking for an easy slow-cooker recipe for it-- I couldn't believe how difficult that would turn out to be!

But then when I found your site, WOW!! Thank you so much for your recipe; it was absolutely delicious!!! And, although I did modify it somewhat, I appreciate your giving me the basic recipe-- one that I couldn't seem to find anywhere else during my days'-long search.

My modifications?... I added veggies (carrots, potatoes, more -red- onion); and spices (2 heads garlic, fresh rosemary, ground sage, dried tarragon, fresh thyme, lemon pepper-- mixed together and rubbed over turkey & under skin w/ the salt/pepper-- w/ garlic in cavity and w/ veggies); I added a few thin slices of lemon and orange under the skin, too. Also, I used homemade chicken stock (made previously), and only 1/2 a stick of butter.

The turkey breast was touching the lid of my 3-1/2 qt. cooker, even without the veggies underneath the turkey breast, though. And, next time, I think I will remove some of the skin before I cook it. But it turned out wonderfully anyway.

I love easy simple recipes like yours; they seem to inspire a chef's creativity in others... as evidenced by all these interesting comments!! Thanks for your input, everyone! :)firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5090591139439935093.post-3753553077372970792011-05-03T18:23:14.308-07:002011-05-03T18:23:14.308-07:00Oh. My.

Had it for leftovers tonight and the rest I've frozen for another meal. My husband can't stop talking about how delicious it was.
I didn't have any white wine and only had 1 cup of chicken broth handy. I just added one cup of water (next time we try the wine :) to substitute. I also added 4 cloves of garlic and it really made a difference. I took the juice and added cornstarch to make a nice gravy as well.
I'm so happy I found this website while searching for a way to cook this turkey. Can't wait to try something else!

I just started this breast today. Yes, it is the day before Thanksgiving, but I am trying to streamline the day tomorrow. I know this will be delicious heated up tomorrow. I wish I had thought about adding some poultry seasoning too. I still have time. I just turned on the pot a few minutes ago.

I did this 2 years ago on Christmas eve and we loved it.

My DD had a baby a few days ago. (right now my granddaughter weighs less than the turkey breast I have in the crock pot!) We are taking it easy tomorrow and getting the turkey cooked today will help. Also frees up the crock pot for tomorrow if I want to use it for something else.

Author Frank Kane originally created Big Apple private eye JOHNNY LIDDELL in 1944 for a pulp story, and later went on to write 29 novels and countless short stories about him. Johnny started out as an agency man, but by Bullet Proof (1951), he's out on his own with his own New York agency. A solid series, nothing really exceptional, but it gets the job done, sorta like Johnny. As Bill Crider put it on Rara-Avis in April 2000, if it's a Frank Kane book, chances are "it'll be a competent, straightforward P.I. story."
Frank Kane's brother, Vincent, was an plainclothes cop for the NYPD who sometimes provided technical advice on investigative procedures. Kane spent much time talking to his brother - and other policemen in the force - learning about crime-oriented "tough guys" and gaining insight into their motivations. Through conversations with his brother, Kane developed opinions about how real life detectives might approach those on the wrong side of the law.) In fact, he actually wrote one NYPD cop novel based on his brother's work.
In addition to the Johnny Liddell stories, he wrote one NYPD cop novel based on his brother's work. He also wrote scripts for radio (The Shadow, The Fat Man, Gangbusters) and television shows (S.A.7, The Investigators, and most notably Mike Hammer). Rumours have it that many of the Hammer scripts were just adaptations of his Liddell stories with Hammer substituted for Liddell. Kane also wrote a couple of original novels based on characters from television series, Staccato (as Frank Boyd) and The Line-Up (as Frank Kane).
Report respectfully submitted by Kevin Burton Smith. Thanks to Jim Doherty for some of the info on this page, and a tip of the fedora to David Spencer for the heads-up. And a very special thanks to Maura Fox, Frank Kane's grand-daughter, for all the extra info.

Hi there,
Thanks for the answer.
Yup, it's behind a router and it is already in the DMZ. I'm not sure I understand what you mean with configuring the router to use the static IP. Do you mean that instead of having it route from say 91.xx.zz.yy to 192.168.0.1, it should directly be assigned to 91.xx.zz.yy? Is there no way to get around this? Hosting web pages works fine with the current config and if at all possible, I would like to not have to reconfigure the entire home network.
Oh and in case my first explanation was unclear, I believe what I'm trying to do is basically the contents of the following HOWTO, but without ISPConfig

Nate and Matt and Chris…I don't know what it is, but Pinehurst doesn't feel like pulling into a Pine Valley or an Augusta National must feel like. It doesn't feel secluded to me. It reminds me of St. Andrews and being a part of the town and being a part of the fabric of the lives of the people. It's higher end than St. Andrews, being a resort unto itself, but it doesn't intimidate me or make me cower. I love it for that.

- Golf Gadgets: The Good, The Fad and The FunkyPosted 1 day ago
Hallowed Ground: Pinehurst No. 2
At St. Andrews, you suspect that the entire burgh has turned out to watch your initial tee ball. It's not the case, as the shopkeepers have wares to sell and the even the starter has other interests. In complete contrast are the headwaters of Pinehurst No. 2, Donald J. Ross's paragon of the Carolina sandhills. With the strains of the village carillon serving as the piper who brings you aboard, the northwesterly walk from Maniac Hill (the fabled driving range) brings you past the final green, along the clubhouse veranda, to the starter's shed. And in this gentle way does a round over the terrain of Pinehurst No. 2 commence.
If you dig deeply enough, you'll learn that the golf course had sand greens in its aboriginal state. You'll read that ownership began with James Walker Tufts of Boston before the turn of the 19th century, yet has enjoyed a robust transfer legacy since then. You'll uncover the amount of effort and energy that Donald Ross, born along the coast of northern Scotland, put into creating his inland opus. If it's history you seek, you'll find an unending amount in Pinehurst.
For me, a recent trip around the 18 singular holes of Pinehurst No. 2 represented the closing of a circle whose trace initiated in 1982. As a 16-year old golfer with but a smattering of the lore of Pinehurst, I was fortunate to play the course and be exposed to the work of the master. Truth be told, the early 1980s did not represent the luminescent hours of the resort. Golf had not returned to the popularity it holds today and the resort was traversing an uncertain arc, finding an identity. Despite this bit of murk, the features of the course took hold of me, ensuring that I would be forever smitten with the game and its architecture. I would kid my father the tennis player that he played the same rectangle, over and over. In contrast, my game took me from mountains to seaside links, from the desert to the jungle, never to the same geometry.
There is a trap that awaits a golfer who anticipates a maiden voyage around a fabled course. The pitfalls are many: expect too much of the course; expect too much of yourself and your game; expect too much of your caddy; expect that others will share your enthusiasm, and so forth. As I stepped onto that first tee deck of the No. 2 course, I cautioned myself to be satisfied with two achievements: take divots and play to the safe side of the target.
Pinehurst No. 2, in anticipation of an unrivaled accomplishment, undertook a complete restoration of its spaces between. Gone now is the wall-to-wall emerald grass that made missed fairways a nightmare. Recovery shots from the thick rough were dubious at best, often a wedge to safety and rarely a run at the green. Under the watchful care of Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw (and their team of builders and shapers), Ross's pride was returned to the rugged, less-shorn test that the course creator had envisioned. Sandy wastes line the fairway edges. Bunkers that once described a recognizable curve now appear tangled, shaggy and jagged; in another word, beautiful.
It is a subtle touch that the first hole demands not a great drive, but a thoughtful approach shot to the green, and that the second hole reverses the requirements, accepting only the most stalwart of drives. Lest you think it gets easier from that point on, the third hole enjoins both. It is at the fourth hole that the golf course allows you to swing freely and crack a beauty down the majestic slope of your first look at a par-5 hole.
After the trundle down the fourth and the ascent back up the parallel fifth, the course for the most part gives off a flattish hue. Holes move this way and that, across boscages and along the odd chaparral. There is vertical movement, but none so dynamic that its presence distracts the golfer from the majesty of the course routing. Donald Ross maneuvered fairway after fairway in distinct directions and at contrary angles. He placed greens against gentle slopes, beyond rumpled hillocks and atop subtle yet potent eskers.
The end result is more golf course than the typical touring golfer can manage. Not in a horrifying, threatening way, but in a subtle one. This is championship golf and it demands championship thinking, planning and execution, again and again. Each golf hole remains etched in my memory for its apparent simplicity and its identifiable complexity. Greens with false fronts and bogus backs seduce golf balls off the putting surface, into grassy hollows.
Pinehurst No. 2 will host the Women's and Men's United States Open Championships in successive weeks in 2014. I suspect the mystic, beguiling experience will transcend the tournaments themselves.

Good read, Ron. Brings back a lot of pleasant memories. We had a condo on course #5 back in the 70′s and many of your early recollections parallel mine. The ownership wasn't as solid back then but the town and golf experience were remarkable. The smells of pine, charming restaurants in the town (long since departed) and the ambience of The Carolina Hotel were borderline magical to a early teens kid.
I honeymooned there in the mid 80′s and again had a great time (although my new bride flipped me off on the first hole of #2 after chunking her first two shots (we still laugh about that).
The course is so subtle in it's ability to abuse. I can only imagine how many putts I suffered through.
Good read Ron, thanks. I've played Pinehurst #4 before but never 2. I still remember the feeling of pulling into the driveway of Pinehurst. From the moment you pull in the driveway, step out of the car, Pinehurst oozes 'golf'. Golf in it's purest form. The terraced lawn bowling greens, the back patio overlooking the putting greens. I was there prior to the US Open. They had the leader board up already. It was a pretty cool experience. Thanks for bringing the memory back.
Great article Ron. I used to work at Pinehurst a few years back, I can't tell you how much I miss playing there 7 days a week. Unfortunately I haven't had a chance to get back since.
Nice piece; incredible golf course. Got to see Payne Stewart play and win there in 1999 but never had an opportunity to play the course until 3 weeks ago. I was impressed and enthralled with all of the natural beauty – kudos to Ross, Crenshaw and Coore. Simply awesome.

Premier League legend Ryan Giggs has raised the prospect of a reunion with former Manchester United team-mate David Beckham by making himself available for the Great Britain Olympic football squad for 2012.
Giggs, who was voted Best Player in the recent Premier League 20 Seasons Awards, could compete as one of three over-23 players allowed in each squad.
Beckham, currently competing in the United States for Major League Soccer side Los Angeles Galaxy, has previously made clear that he would be delighted to be picked by head coach Stuart Pearce.
The two players began their careers at Old Trafford and were both regular starters from 1995/96 to 2002/03 during which time United won the Premier League six times.
"I started my playing career with Becks... 20 years later, to be still doing that would be great"
- Ryan Giggs
But they have not played together since Beckham departed for Real Madrid in 2003.
Giggs, 38, has made 598 Premier League appearances and is the only person to score in every Premier League season.
Beckham, 37, made 263 League appearances for United between 1995 and 2003, before leaving for Spanish side Real Madrid.
"Becks is obviously a friend and he remains a great player," said Giggs.
"If [playing for GB] was to be, it'd be great. I started my playing career with Becks in the [United] youth team. Twenty years later, to be still doing that would be great."
Giggs admitted that the style of play may be slightly different to when they were together at Old Trafford, saying: "I don't think it'll be like 20 years ago when we were both up and down [the wing].
"We might be able to get up but we won't be able to get back down again."
Coach Pearce has until mid-July to name his squad, although he is keen to do so earlier to give players and clubs time to prepare.
GB begin their Olympic campaign against Senegal at Old Trafford on July 26th before facing United Arab Emirates at Wembley on July 29th - with their final group match at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff on 1st August.

Brad Schneider on Immigration
I applaud the President for taking steps to prevent children from being punished for the failures of politicians. The DREAM Act is another essential part of comprehensive immigration solutions. Each year, approximately 65,000 undocumented students graduate from high school. With the DREAM Act, we can start to provide legitimate pathways to citizenship through either college or military service for the many immigrants who were brought here as small children.
Project Vote Smart infers candidate issue stances on key topics by summarizing public speeches and public statements. Congressional candidates are given the opportunity to respond in detail; about 11% did so in the 2012 races.
Project Vote Smart summarizes candidate stances on the following topic: 'Immigration: Do you support requiring illegal immigrants to return to their country of origin before they are eligible for citizenship?'

[2048] mTOR Expression in Pulmonary Neuroendocrine Tumors
Paula A Toro, Cristina Alenda, Gloria Peiro, Ana Teruel, Estefania Rojas, Ignacio Aranda. Hospital General de Alicante, Alicante, Comunidad Valenciana, Spain
Background: The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is a Ser/Thr protein kinase that functions as an ATP and amino acid sensor to balance nutrient availability and cell growth. mTOR plays a pivotal role in the proliferation and progression of several neoplasms; nevertheless, its role in neuroendocrine (NE) tumors of the lung has not been extensively evaluated. Therefore, the aim of our study was to analize the mTOR activation status in a series of neuroendocrine lung tumors (NELT).
Design: A total of 62 cases of NELT were retrieved from the Surgical Pathology files (43 typical carcinoid-TC-, 8 atypical carcinoid –AC-, 8 large cell neuroendocrine carcinomas –LCNEC-, and 3 small cell carcinomas –SCC-). After identifying tumor area for each case from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue blocks, 0.4-mm-thick cores were punched and embedded in the donor paraffin block. Tissue microarrays were stained with antibodies against phospho-mTOR (Ser2448, Cell Signaling) and Ki-67 (MIB1, Dako), as a marker of proliferation activity. mTOR tumor cell positivity (diffuse cytoplasmic) (percentage and intensity) was semi-quantitatively scored (range 0-300). Cases with score ≥10 were defined as positive. Inmunohistochemical results were correlated as well as histologic subtype. A p value < 0.05 was considered significant.
Results: Age of patients ranged from 16 to 74 (mean 52); 52% were men and 48% women. mTOR overexpresión was predominantly seen in TC and AC (84% and 87%, respectively) whereas the expression in LCNEC and SCC was lower (12% and 33%, respectively) (p < 0.000). Tumors with mTOR overexpression had lower proliferative rates, as valorated by Ki-67 (p=0.006).
Conclusions: Our findings suggest that the level of expression of mTOR is associated with better differentiated NELT and decreases with more aggressive histologic subtypes. Due to the availability of therapeutic targets that modulate this molecular pathway, these results could be relevant for the selection of patients treatments.

Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon Celebrate Romantic Valentine's Day
Five years after getting married, Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon haven't lost the spark in their relationship. The lovebirds, who will celebrate their anniversary in April, enjoyed a festive Valentine's Day.
The romantic evening started with the pop diva taking a bath and tweeting the pics. She even got a surprise visit from her dog Jill E. Beans.
"Aaaah! Jill E Beans leaps to the tub In hopes of a splash champagne – whhhhhy?!" tweeted Mimi.
The couple left their twins Roc and Roe at home and snuck out for a horse and carriage ride through Central Park. "Trespassing in Central Park ❤love on the wild side haaaaaa," said Mariah. "A kiss delicately scented with horse dung…. Still romantic though."
The evening ended back in their New York penthouse with Nick placing a box of chocolates and rose petals on the bed for his wife.
Meanwhile, Mariah has unveiled the artwork for "Almost Home," her new single from Disney's upcoming film Oz The Great and Powerful. The feel-good record, produced by Stargate, hits iTunes on February 19.

Use transparency or clear vinyl as your base for a truly unique Christmas card. A large ornament in "Toile pink" hangs from a windy tree stamp in this Christmas card.
- Stamp: Lace Border, Christmas saying, both by Stampostique and "Windy Tree" by Hero Arts
- Transparency or clear Vinyl Cover (both can be found at Office supply store)
- Ink: Palette hybrid Inkpad "New Canvas", India Ink, Palette Hybrid Inkpad "Toile Pink", Palette Stamp & Stick GluePad (all by Stewart Superior)
- Foil: Red Variegated Leaf by Stewart Superior
- Cardstock: White glossy, light purple, silver
- Circle Punch – large – I used on from EK Success
- Paint Brush
- Embossing Gun
- Small square punch
- Wire
- Adhesive
- Trimmer and score blade or bone folder
- Make up sponge
- Cut Transparence sheet to 5 ½" x 8 ½" and score at 4 ¼". This is your card base. You will get two cards from on sheet of transparence. Stamp "Windy Tree" using Palette "New Canvas" onto the front of your card – set aside to dry.
- Stamp Lace Stamp on White Glossy cardstock using Stamp & Stick Glue Pad. Heat with heat gun (embossing gun) until ink becomes sticky. Place Red Variegated Leaf over stamp image and lately brush off extra. (you can save the extra in a Tupperware bowl and use later). Using your Circle Punch upside down so you can see your stamped image, punch out circle shape – I got three circles out of each stamp.
- Ink up a make up sponge using Palette "Toile Pink" and color in the white area of the circle you just punched out.
- Punch Small Square out of silver cardstock. Adhere to top of circle to get the look of an ornament, add a small piece of wire.
- Adhere Ornament to front of card – hanging from the tree.
- Stamp "Christmas Saying" to bottom of Purple cardstock and adhere purple cardstock to inside of card base. Your saying should show through to front of card.

My Comments
"Son, you're a father now and I'm sure you would do anything for your children to protect them."
"I would pops, you right. I would do anything to protect my family. At first my main reason to come here was to give you the latest with the case, but now in light of some new information, I just wanna know how'd you know he was going to be there?" My dad thinks for a minute. He has this perplex look on his face. Then he responds.
"I didn't know for certain, but I won't let you take the fall for any of this. I promise you that."
"I think you owe me the truth. You knew she had a baby already by him, so if that wasn't enough to make you wanna kill him before, what made you shoot to kill this time?"
"Look son, there's so much more at stake now. I had to do it. I did it for you too."
"Nah, you didn't do this for me. Why'd you really do it?"
"…I received a call and found out that it was a chance that Shanell's secret about the adoption was about to come out."
"Received a call from who?"
"My sister, Linda."
"Where is she, and what she got to do with this?"
"She lives in Phoenix, Arizona. Apparently her and her husband are going through a bitter divorce. He knows Hailey means the world to my sister and…"
"Who's Hailey?" My dad got quiet for a minute.
"Hailey is Shanell's daughter. My sister adopted her." Trey had to sit down for a minute. All this news was just too much for one day.
"Hold up, Shanell's daughter is living in Phoenix right now being raised by her aunt?"
"Son when Shanell got pregnant all those years ago, as bad as she didn't want a child in her life, I knew I couldn't have a grandchild of mine being raised by some strangers; even if I didn't like the father. She didn't care who the child went to, she just wanted daddy to take care of it, so that's what I did. I knew my sister had been struggling to have a family, so we still went through the proper channels and she officially adopted her. She didn't want to just take care of her for me, because she was afraid that something might happen one day and the baby would be taken away from her. Then she wouldn't have a legal leg to stand on."
"So since ya sister has her, you mean to tell me she's never seen her with her daughter before or wondered about her suddenly having a child?"
"No, my sister hardly ever comes here or is around the family much. Shanell knows nothing about her struggle to have her own child. She just knows Linda has a child, but no clue it's her own that she's raising."
"That still doesn't explain how El found out."
"His mother seems to believe that he knew and that's why he was there that night, but we don't know if El knew or not. It's many reasons why he could've been there."
"He was there after Shanell. He said he was gonna kill her. Maybe he did know."
"All I know is my sister believes her husband whose she's divorcing got a hold of the paperwork for the adoption and sent it somehow to El's family. The timeframe is what's sketchy."
"I guess we'll never know since you took my chance away from me now will we, but if you loved me as much as you say you do, you would've given me a chance to handle it. React however that was gonna be and just dealt with it."
"I had a lapse in judgment Trey, okay. I'm not perfect!"
"I never expected you to be Shanell. Just upfront with me would've been good enough." He gets up. I follow him.
"Trey wait!" He stops. "Baby please tell me that we're gonna be able to get past this. I know you're hurting right now, but babe will you ever forgive me?"
chuckles "I don't know what hurts the most man. The fact that you have a child with him or the fact that you felt like you didn't trust me enough. So as for right now, I can't give you an answer on that…I can't." He goes in the room and starts getting his things together. I stood in the doorway with my arms folded and watched him with tear filled eyes. I wanted to stop him, but I figured maybe he was just getting prepared for when we left tonight, so I stayed as calm as I could.
"Would you like for me to do that for you?" He said nothing. He continued to get his things together. Then I saw him take his suitcase and wheel it out like he was leaving now. "Tremaine where are you going?"
"I got something I need to take care of. I'll meet you at the airport."
"You're gonna be gone that long?" He walks by and heads to the door again to leave and I follow right behind him. He stops once he's in front of it.
"You can handle check out right?"
"Trey please…let me come with you. I promise not to be in your way or cause any trouble. I just wanna be near you babe…don't go."
"The only problem with that is, I can't be near you right now. Just lay off for a bit a'ight." That right there stung, but I thought about Dre's and Aleen's advice.
"Okay, fine. I'll do as you ask and lay off. I guess I'll see you at the airport then." He starts to leave. "Trey!" He stops and stares at me. "I know you may not want to hear this right now, but I do love you, very much and I believe in what we have. I'm not gonna let you give up on me, because as long as I live I will never give up on you." We held each other's gaze for a few seconds, then he continues to walk down the hall, stopping at Buggzi's room. He came out and then they both preceded to the elevators. Marcus came out of his room and over to me. It was weird how all that took place. Trey must've told him he was leaving.
"Looks like you're stuck with me till we go."
"Did my cousin leave?" He follows me back into my room as he answers.
"Yeah, she told me to tell you that she'll call you."
"Do you know where Trey just went?"
"Don't even try it. I have no idea. I was told that Trey and Buggzi had somewhere to go and would be awhile, so it was going to be me and you together till we got to the airport."
I walked back to the bedroom. Marcus saw all the broken glass everywhere. "What the fuck done happened in here?" he shouted.
"Marcus, you really don't want to know."
"On second thought, you right. That's y'all business. Keep whatever it is to yaself."
"It's been enough of that already." I whisper.
"I'ma go head and clean up this glass. I don't want ya to get cut." He said.
"Marcus, after you do that I need to run out somewhere. I'm gonna get dressed then I'll be ready."
Trey decided to ride over to my mom's house to speak with my dad. Luckily when he had gotten there, dad was home. He saw it on Trey's face that it wasn't a chummy visit. He invited him and Buggzi inside and told them to come in the living room. Buggzi knew they needed some privacy, so he told Trey he wasn't going to stay. He said he'd be back and for him to just call him if he wasn't back before they were done. After he left, Trey wanted to know if my mom was there.
"No, she's not here and won't be back for some time now."
"Is everything alright?" Trey asks with a probing look on his face. My dad and Trey both stare at each other.
"You know don't you?" Dad said.
rubs chin "I know a lot actually. The picture just became a lot clearer…where should I start?"
"Yeah I remember. She quieted down and fell right to sleep."
"It was then that I got up the nerve to talk to you and tell you. I thought I was ready and could do it, until you started talking about how you hated being away from us. You assured me that we would be safe while you were on the road and I would never be hurt from El again. That moment just didn't seem like the right time anymore."
"But now it is? After how many years Shanell! Why now?"
"Trey…El's mother knows about the baby. I really don't know how she found out, but she wants some answers and I refuse to give them to her."
"So you also been talking to his mom behind my back." He says.
"No! She went to see my mother." Trey shakes his head feeling foolish.
"I guess ya mom already knew about this too, huh?"
"She didn't know either. I kept this a secret from her as well." Aain I couldn't even look him in the eyes to finish the rest of this sentence. "The only one that knew about this was my father. He helped me to place her up for adoption." Trey now looked like he felt a bad vibe. Like he was betrayed by him too. I just waited for his response.
"So all of this is only coming up because El's mom found out?" I knew it was going to take a lot of convincing to get him to see why I did what I did.
"Baby I know that's a poor excuse to come clean and honestly, I don't know how long I would've held this from you, especially now with El being dead. I'd like to think that I would've come to you, since he can no longer pose as a threat. Him knowing has been one of my worst fears, but keeping this from you and possibly losing you because of it is my biggest fear. I never, not once, was comfortable knowing I held this from you. I just felt as long as he was alive I could never say anything to put her life in jeopardy. Tremaine you've experienced his madness first hand just like I have. I couldn't even imagine what our lives would've been like had he known he had a daughter by me. When this happened, I was young and very afraid. My father wasn't even supposed to know, but he saw me one day when I didn't expect him to be home and I was caught. At that point I cried and pleaded with him not to say anything to anyone. He didn't want to, but he agreed. He even agreed not to tell my mother. He took care of things and with a little time I didn't look back. In my mind she didn't exist. That was the only way that I could live my life."
"And all this time you were so hard on me when it came to certain things being kept from you, when I was only trying to protect you. But you wasn't no better than me but the difference is ya main concern was protecting her. You wasn't even trying to give me the same respect that you wanted and been straight up with me. Thanks a lot for making me feel like I don't mean shit when it comes to you."
"That's not fair! I get it that you're upset with me for keeping this from you, but can you at least try to understand why?"
"I understand it. Whatchu sayin' is I'm not trustworthy to you. Is that it? Or was it just a matter of you thinking if you told me sooner I would've left. But that's the problem right there doe Shanell, obviously you don't give me enough credit. You think I wouldn't have understood, if you told me that you were a young mother who gave up ya child because of the situation that you were in? I was raised by a young mother and that wasn't an easy thing for my mumma to do. You don't think I would've gotten that? You could've come to me."
"Trey I hear you and I wish I would've not been afraid and known that I could've talked to you. I'm sorry! It wasn't even on my mind to tell you in the beginning. Then later, once El started creating problems I knew how much you despised him, and I didn't know what your reaction would be like."
I put my feet on the floor and sat up. I was so overjoyed to see his face, but I didn't get the same in return. His face was stiff and tight, looking very angry still. He walked over to the bar and made himself a drink.
"Trey when you're done fixing that can you please come over here so I can talk to you?" He finished making his drink, but stood there drinking it. I watched him take a sip then hold the glass, take another sip than hold it as he looked at me. I wished so badly that I could read his mind even though his expression had spoken volumes. I couldn't look at him anymore. I was so ashamed with myself. He then came over and sat in the chair that was next to the couch I was on. I took that as a great sign. It meant he was willing to talk. He even started up the conversation.
"I never thought in a million years that I'd be hearing something like this from you."
"Babe I'm sorry I had to say this to you. Tremaine when we first started seeing each other I never imagined how much you were going to change my life. You came in and made me see all the beauty in love. My past with El at that time had been one that I wanted to forget so much. I know I didn't make that easy for you, but you broke down that wall and got me to finally open up. Seeing you that day in my office when I did that interview on you, I wanted to put everything out on the table. I wanted to tell you about her and I was going to, but not there. I was going to talk to you later on that evening over dinner. Then El came and turned my world upside down again. I had shut down. He made me hold on to that secret even tighter. I hated him and I knew if he was coming after me this hard and he didn't even know about her, than he'd really try to destroy me and what I was trying to build with you if he knew. It was like if I didn't say anything it didn't exist."
"But it does exist. She exists, and still not once out of all these years have you ever came to me to tell me. You didn't think I had a right to know?"
"You had every right to know. I wanted to tell you so many different times, but as soon as I found the strength to do so El was back pulling another stunt. He wouldn't let up. He kept deterring me. Tremaine I needed you so bad and I was afraid that I would lose you if I said anything, especially telling you something like this. Then you had the accident and I became pregnant. My telling you then wasn't even a thought with everything that we had went through. It wasn't until the birth of the twins when things were looking up for us that it crossed my mind to finally say something. I came so close one day when you were in the nursery holding Treyonna when she was almost two months; shortly after Mrs. Vanessa had gotten here. You had just come home from doing your video shoot for Bottoms Up, and you took her straight out of Mrs. Vanessa's arms when you came in. I remember because Treyonna was crying, which prompted me to peek out of our bedroom to see what was wrong. I saw you carry her right in to the nursery. When I peeked in there you were sitting down in the rocker singing to her. Do you remember that?"
"Are you done?" she asks.
"Only if it made you not be mad at me anymore, if not than no and I'll continue to sing…and dance."
"Please don't!" She commanded.
"Oh so you're not mad?"
"I don't know why I expected anything more from you anyway." Marcus distorts his face.
"So you're insulting me now? You are still mad." They get off the elevator and he continues to follow her to her car.
"Why are you following me? Shouldn't you be worrying about my cousin's safety?" He takes his phone out and starts dialing numbers.
"Marcus where are you guys?"
"I'm out here with ya cousin." My heart starts beating fast.
"Trey's back!"
"Nooo he's with Buggzi. I was just calling and checking on you. You straight though? You need me to do anything for you?"
"Yes! Bring me my man!"
"You know I have no control over Trey, but I'm on my way back up there with ya cousin alright?"
"Yeah." We hang up.
"See, ya cousin's fine." Aleen had grabbed her charger out of her car since Marcus continued to follow her while he was on the phone with me. They were back on the elevators again.
"Can you please not be upset with me for lying to you; well technically I didn't lie and I don't like what you said about not expecting anything more from me either. I know I wasn't completely truthful with you a minute ago, but I didn't really wanna get involved like that…" She cuts him off.
"Nah, just here me out for a minute. If you don't listen to anything else I say, I just need you to listen to this. If you was my woman, I would never give you a reason to doubt me, but you keep playing."
"That's because I know what I'm dealing with…a player. You wanna win the game, start making all the right moves." They were standing side by side at first, but Marcus moves in front of her forcing her to inch back up against the elevator wall. She looks up to him as he's looking down at her.
"And when I do, make sure you ready for 'em, because they will be all the right moves." He stressed. The elevator doors opened and Marcus put his hand out for Aleen to pass. She quietly walks by him with her right hand rubbing her neck. She felt a bit of tension after that conversation. Marcus was slowly pacing himself behind her smiling as he watches her walk. They both were now in my room. I had been still crying. While she was gone, I saw the bedroom and noticed what Trey had broken. It was the champagne glasses that we had drank from last night along with the bottle, shattered everywhere. That just added to my misery. Marcus saw how upset I still was and tried to comfort me.
"I don't know what happened with the two of you, but whatever it is I'm sure you'll work it out. Y'all been with each other too long and have always managed to kiss and make up; no matter what it was, so stop crying. It's gonna be alright." I knew Marcus had no clue what the problem was this time, but I remember his talk with me when he found out I was pregnant with the twins. He thought I was going to keep that from Trey and said he would never be able to forgive a woman who knowingly kept a child from him. I know he was talking about his own, but still I don't think he could forgive this either. This time around it won't be that easy to just kiss and make up, I know it. I didn't say anything and sat balled up on the couch hugging my legs.
"I think I'ma leave you two alone and go ahead to my room." He looks at Aleen. "I'm not finished with you either. Come see me before you leave…I mean it." Then he looks back at me. "Shanell if you need to go out or anything let me know alright?" I shook my head yes, but I knew I wasn't leaving this hotel room until Trey was with me. He finally came back an hour later. Aleen left and went to go see Marcus as soon as Trey came in.

Lichborne: The 2008 Death Knight year in review
Welcome to first 2009 installment of Lichborne, the WoW Insider Death Knight column.
Welcome to 2009, which I am, completely arbitrarily, declaring the year of the Death Knight. Sure, Death Knights were first announced back in 2007, but 2008 was when they took shape and showed up in playable form, and 2009 will be the first full year that they've been on the live servers. Let's look back then, at 2008, and see some of the milestones in the creation of my favorite new class and yours.

Recommended OB/GYN/NEWBORN Nursing READING LIST! - page 7
Saw this on the NEONATAL/NICU Area and I believe it's a GREAT idea. WHO knows better the best reading materials, books, sites to use to enhance our knowledge of Inpatient OB/GYN nursing than midwives and OB-GYN and newborn... Read More
- 0Jul 31, '05 by sirI, MSN, APRN, NP AdminQuote from shell_rni believe the book is:several people have listed the book birth stories, without an author... is it possible that birth stories is actually part 1 of the book ina mays guide to childbirth by ina may gaskin?
birth stories (subtitle: mystery, power, and creation) by: jane dwinell
that is the one i have read. now there is another by author, janet i. ashford called birth stories: the experience remembered....i have not read that one.
immaculate contraception by emma dickens is a good one, too. and as previously mentioned, midwives by chris bohjalian. i love that book and the movie with sissy spaceck.
siri, crnp, clnc, rlnc
- 0Aug 4, '05 by laney1733I am currently reading Ina May's Guide to Childbirth and part one is a collection of birth stories, but I've also read Birth Stories and they are two seperate books. Both are wonderful. I also have another collection of birth stories called Labor Day: Shared Experiences from the Delivery Room by Ann-Marie Giglio which was good too. I'm off to Amazon now, thanks everyone for all of the suggestions.
- 0Aug 21, '05 by heyaboI read "WE're No Angels" after seeing the movie. We all think we have had it bad until you read that book. I lent the book to my husbands Uncle who was in WWII and he loved the book. He said he was so glad to read something that was accurate about the feild nursing. He also told me that alot of guys would not have survived if it hadn't been for the nurses that cared for them. Not only for the medical care they received but for the caring and compassion.Quote from mtnmomThanks so much for all the wonderful suggestions - My "wish list" for reading seems to constantly outpace available time, but I am going to put several of these at the top of my list!!
I have not read "The Red Tent" but have heard very good things about it.
Another title that a sister-in-law (who is an atty, not in medicine) recommended to me, but that I have not had the opportunity to look for, is titled "Misconceptions"...has anyone heard of it??? It seems to be similar to the title previously described on this thread that goes into all the abuses of the natural birth process perpetuated by the medical system.
And lastly, I have to put in a plug for one of my favorite all-time nursing books...not in the least related to OB/GYN but should be read by any American nurse..."We Band of Angels". This book details the story of the military nurses forced to evacuate with the troops during the Bataan death march in WWII Phillippines. The story of the sacrifices that these nurses made to care for their troops, the way they improvised, and the subsequent time they spent under Japanese capture in internment camp is incredible reading. Sorry its not OB-GYN reading but I promise you wont be disappointed, especially if you have any interest in history.
Keep adding your wonderful suggestions, please!!!
- 0Sep 27, '05 by Alice PerriI am a new RN and an old LPN for twenty years in the OB/Nsy department. What do I really need to learn as an RN.
- 0Oct 3, '05 by SmilingBluEyesAWHONN is a great resource for perinatal nursing standards of practice. They even have a book entitled similiarly. Also, be aware of ACOG standards when writing new policies/care plans.
As you know, also, there are some good Nursing Care Plan books out there specific to L/D nursing. You can also "borrow" policies/care plans from other hospitals in your area or from nurses you know nationwide......
I would start with AWHONN first, and go from there. Welcome to our forum and good luck to you.

hope this helps.

All the single ladies: Louisville No. 10 on Ashley Madison list of mistress metros
We don't know how Ashley Madison came up with this list, and we don't want to know.
BUT, this explains a lot …
Slugged "It's 10 p.m. DO YOU KNOW WHERE YOUR HUSBAND IS?" a news release sure fluffs up infidelity and makes being a mistress sound like a choice that Gloria Steinem would celebrate.
If you don't listen to Howard Stern or watch late night network television, you may not be aware that AshleyMadison.com is a massive enterprise. But it is.
Its latest television commercial boasts that the site is approaching 20 million members.
From the news release:
As the definition of marriage continues to evolve, millions of American women are deciding to pursue relationships with men who are already married, rather than seeking out lifelong commitments of their own. According to new research from extra-marital dating site AshleyMadison.com, over 26% of the women pursuing affairs with married men in Louisville are actually single themselves.
See below for the complete list cities where wearing a wedding ring will get you laid:
#1 – Los Angeles, CA – 37.2%
#2 – Washington , DC – 33.8%
#3 – Phoenix, AZ- 31.7%
#4 – Tampa, FL – 29.9%
#5 – San Francisco, CA – 29.9%
#6 – Dallas, TX – 28.5%
#7 – Raleigh, NC – 28.1%
#8 – Milwaukee, WI – 27.8%
#9 – West Palm Beach, FL – 27.4%
#10 –Louisville, KY – 26.8%
"When divorce isn't an option." Huh.
Normally when I think of infidelity, I think of fraught, clandestine affairs and rooms by the hour at airport hotels. But that's not the picture that Noel Biderman, founder and CEO of AshleyMadison.com, paints.
Not every woman is currently in pursuit of a white-picket fence lifestyle, relationship of permanence, children, mortgage and scheduled date nights," says Biderman. "Many women are seeking adventure, and on a service like ours encountering older sophisticated men with the same "no strings attached" mentality that creates the perfect match.
Adventure? Sophistication? Woo hoo! Where do I sign up?
The tagline for the company is, "Life is short. Have an affair." And lest that not be too subtle for you, the "o" in "Madison" in the company logo is sometimes a wedding ring… and sometimes a gold coin.
So, if someone is going to cheat despite the fact that he/she is in a committed relationship, why not turn the situation into a business? As the company eloquently states, "Providing a married dating service like ours does not make someone more likely to stray any more than increasing the availability of glassware contributes to alcoholism."
We normally like to see Louisville on top ten lists, but we're not exactly going to be shouting this one from the rooftops.

John Lewis Trials 24-hour QR Code Store
- 30th November
- Natasha Sholl 106
UK department store John Lewis is merging the online and offline worlds, trialing a virtual store that will allow shoppers to buy a range of products using smartphones and QR codes.
Retailer John Lewis is extending its click and collect offering by launching a virtual store. The Brighton Waitrose branch features a window display where shoppers can scan QR codes to purchase featured items from the retailer's 'Top 30 Favourite Things for Christmas' including Lego and the Amazon Kindle.
After scanning a QR code, the shopper is linked to the John Lewis mobile site to make the purchase. If products are ordered before 7pm, they will be available for collection from the store from 2pm the next day.
'The roll-out of our Click and Collect service to Waitrose shops is proving incredibly popular. This new 24 hour virtual shop in the heart of Brighton takes that convenience to another level,' says Craig Inglis, Marketing Director for John Lewis.
The virtual store, available until the end of December, is yet another example of the way the department store has adapted to modern technology and is thinking outside the box to target shoppers. Earlier this year, John Lewis launched an initiative to offer customers free WiFi access in-store to encourage them to shop online and announced plans to launch bespoke stores to target multichannel shoppers.
With smartphone usage on the rise and time-poor, savvy shoppers comfortable switching between on and offline in an instant, retailers are looking for new ways to engage their customers. eBay opened a QR store in London's West End in early December, Shanghai has 'shopping walls' in 70 subway stations and Tesco has a virtual supermarket in Korea. So while we're patiently waiting in line to sneak a peak at the Myer Christmas Window, will we soon be able to multitask and partake in some virtual window shopping too? Will QR code stores become the norm?

Good to see merchants starting to adopt QR codes to bridge offline and online, hopefully Australia will start to catch on to the opportunity. We recently implemented QR codes into our Affiliate Marketing Network, can't say the adoption has been huge but it has gained a lot of attention.
Agree adoption in Austrlai seems slow: signarture recently exhibited at Grand Designs Live: we had QR codes placed prominently at either end of our stand that linked through to our online gallery: over 1,500 people picked up a promotional card …but only 6 people scanned a QR code!!

@215, if they won the Grand Slam then they would not need the extra points to win outright as they would be the winners anyway.

Hi Jerry, who do you think will benefit most by the changes in the scrum laws in the 6N

Hi Jerry, I know your feelings on this but I believe after watching that cracking SA v NZ game with all its permutations it's time for the 6N's to adopt the bonus point format. Perhaps it could include a caveat whereby any team that won the Grand Slam would get 5 bonus points thereby winning the tournament outright. We need extra spice in an often comparatively dull championship. Thanks Mark

Ask Nautilus
"You have a hobby Big Daddy?"
Some days I think my anchor is weighing me down, do you have any suggestions to make me not feel this way?
Ask Gragas
The overly manly hunk of meat known as the manly Gragas appears out of nowhere, not chewing bees this time, but with nails puncturing through his manly jaws. He clearly had nails, without milk, for breakfast. So he points at Naughtylus in a manly manner, and then says one thing, and ONE THING ONLY:
And then the manly hunk of meat starts to walk into the horizon, making it quake and shake and bake and snake and rake and fake and make and lake and... ok the fourth wall couldn't give enough words to not be considered spam. So then the horizon begins to shatter like glass, because the damn sun can't even handle the manliness that it's facing.

So... today we celebrated my youngest boy's 5th birthday.
A group of his closest friends all gathered in the woods for a wild game of bows, arrows and Indians.
We decorated headresses, painted faces, stormed the tipi's, made bows with sticks and string, ate hot dogs and toasted marshmallows on the fire.
You can see from the photos, Rufus had a wild time... we all did. Children and parents alike.
It was epic, I feel I have been away for a weekend at a festival - the most fun, exhausting and happy all at the same time.
As I sit here now with the smell of wood smoke in my hair - I feel absolutely blessed that my boys have such great friends and that I do too.
I think all Saturday afternoons should be like this!
