A Tribe's Miracle
Chapter 1
Emmett's POV
It hit me yesterday that with everything that has happened, Alex and my 2nd anniversary has snuck up on me. We haven't had a date night in forever. Two small kids will do that to you, but I'm about to change that. Alex has dropped hints that she wants this New Kids On the Block/ Backstreet Boys cd, but I think I can do better than that. They are performing in Seattle next weekend, and I think I can get tickets.
It hit me that Jessie is into that boy band stuff also. Collin might like to surprise Jessie with tickets also. If Jessie is there, Alex will have a girl to talk to, and I won't have to hear about how hot some other dude is. I mean, she has me, what more does she need?
"Hey, Collin. If I can get tickets to that New Back Boys concert, or whatever they are called, do you want to take Jessie?" I called Collin.
"Yea. I figure I might have to drop a name or two, but I haven't used the Cullen name for anything recently, so I might as well use it to make my wife happy. If you and Jessie are there, I won't have to listen to Alex gush over these dudes. I'll call and see what I can do. 4 Tickets and two hotel rooms shouldn't be that hard to come by." I said.
I called the ticket office, just to be informed that the show was sold out. I thought for a moment, and then called Alice.
"Pixie, I need your help. What's the name of your entertainment coordinator for Seattle? I need tickets to a concert that's this weekend." I asked.
"For the trillionth time I AM NOT A PIXIE!!!" Alice screamed.
"Whatever just give me the number. There's a concert that Alex will love, and love me for taking her to, but it's sold out. I know your guy can get me tickets." I said.
"Ugh, you procrastinate too much. His name is Craig, and his number is 578*7872. Make sure you tell him that I am your sister, or you will get nowhere. Oh… and you owe me something expensive from Seattle." Alice said.
"Thanks, and I'll buy you something glittery, Pixie." I quickly hung up before she could yell at me again.
I dialed the number and waited for Craig to pick up. "Craig, my sister Alice Hale gave me your number and said you were the guy to help me out. Is there any way you can get me tickets to the New Kids on the Block/Backstreet Boys concert this weekend? I need 4 tickets. I know its sudden notice, but I want to surprise my wife for our anniversary." I held my breath.
"Well, all I have left are the VIP ticket packages. They can be quite pricy, but since Mrs. Hale is your sister, I assume money is no object? Mr…you didn't tell me your name, I'm afraid." Craig said.
"It's Cullen, Emmett Cullen. Money is no problem. If it makes my wife happy, it's worth it. What is a VIP package, and what type of money are we looking at?" I asked.
"Mr. Cullen, the VIP package includes backstage passes, autographed seats, and concert tickets. We are talking $250." Craig explained.
"That's it? That's not expensive." I said.
"Sir, I mean $250 per seat. I'm assuming you want them. I need a credit card number, and there will be a $25 currier fee. This is to deliver the tickets to your house or place of business tomorrow." Craig said.
I gave him the information he wanted, then hung up. Next I had to make hotel reservations.
I called around and found two hotels side by side near the water front. I called and made reservations for Alex and I at Hotel 1000. Thankfully the Alexis Seattle was right next door, just as nice, but about half the price. Collin keeps saying he is going to pay me back, but if he knew that I just paid over $1000 for a hotel room for 2 nights, he would freak.
After I booked the hotels, I called Collin. "Hey, we have tickets for Friday night. I made reservations for Friday and Saturday nights at neighboring hotels. I thought we might want to keep the girls separate after the concert, so we can have some alone time with our wives. They can go shopping Saturday, while we go find something else to do. We will head home about noon Sunday."
"Sounds good. Let me know how much I owe." Collin said.
"We will take care of that later. Do you want to run to the mall later? I mean, I'm gonna finish this surprise out by choosing Alex a concert outfit." I suggested.
We agreed to meet at the mall later, and do a one stop shopping spree. Hopefully my idea of what I want Alex to wear will mesh with what she is willing to wear.

Chapter 25
Taylor's POV
I hate the idea of moving, but I'm to the point of trying anything. Chloe has been depressed and withdrawn since we lost the baby. I thought the new baby would help, but she just seems afraid to do anything, that it might harm the baby.
"Sam, can I meet you in the woods? I need to talk to you." I called Sam and requested a meeting. Between the two alphas, Sam was the one I felt I could talk to about this.
"Sure. Give me five minutes." Sam said, then hung up.
I reached the meeting place first, and paced back and forth until he arrived.
"What's wrong?" Sam automatically asked.
"It's Chloe. She hasn't been well. It started when she lost the baby and Gabby was kidnapped. She refuses to leave the house, and if I try to make her, she ends up having a panic attack. I thought with time she would get better, and realize she isn't in danger, but it hasn't helped. If anything, the new baby has her even more paranoid. She won't go up the stairs, afraid she will fall again. She won't let Gabby out of her sight. When I leave, it's a long process of assuring her I will come back. Then I come home to find her sitting by the window, staring out of it. I talked to Carlisle, and he referred us to a friend of his. That's another problem, she says Carlisle is one of you, and against her. She refuses to see him or let him check on her. This new doctor is in Port Angeles." I paused to take a breath.
"Taylor, you should have come to me and the pack earlier. We could have helped. At the least, we could have taken over your patrols. What does the new doctor say?" Sam asked.
"He says all of her fears are based on her memories of that night. In her way, she is protecting herself, the baby, and Gabby. He thinks a change might help. That's what I needed to tell you. We are moving to Port Angeles. With the baby due anytime now, we have to be near a doctor. If she won't let Carlisle even talk to her, there is no way she will let him deliver the baby. We found a apartment near the hospital. It must just be the memories in this house that she has problems with. When we were apartment looking, and even in this one we rented, she has no problems with stairs. She seemed like her normal self almost. Still a bit reserved, but nothing like what she is here. I hope we can return soon, but that depends on Chloe. At the least, we won't be returning to this house. I'd like to sell it as soon as possible, but I'm not sure how that works, since we are on the edge of the reservation." I felt better, just talking to Sam. Somehow I know that I will get my wife back, the wonderful woman I fell in love with and married, not this empty shell.
"Leave the house to me. Rebecca was looking for a house, close to Billy, but not too close. If she is still looking, yours might be just the thing. If not, I will see if I can find someone else who wants to move up to a bigger house. You just do what you have to for your family. Getting Chloe the help she needs is all that matters right now. If you do decide, you want to come home, just call. We will work out the details when that time comes. If you need anything, please call. Don't leave your brothers and I hanging anymore. We can't help if you don't let us in." Sam pulled me into a hug, then walked off into the woods.
I turned and walked back towards my house. It was time to finish packing and get moving. The sooner I make this change, the sooner I have my wife back, I pray.
Poor Chloe :(
I hope she recovers soon.

Chapter 26
Jessie's POV
Today is August 31st, My birthday, and I'm as big as a house and fat all over.
I try to roll over to find a more comfortable spot in bed, but there is a box blocking my way. Great…. Collin has decided to be cute with presents.
I open the box to find a baby sling. Nice… the baby gets a present for my birthday. My husband better get better at this gift giving before the day is over.
I dig around and finally find a pair of warmup pants that somewhat fit, and a tshirt of Collin's. I'm to the point where the cute maternity stuff just does not fit, and the late term clothes I have don't fit either. I mean, when you are this pregnant, I don't want anything to touch me, much less cling to my baby belly.
I make it into the living room, and Phoebe and Olivia come toddling towards me. "Open Mommy!"
They each have an odd shaped present they are thrusting at me.
I open the presents to find a pair of blue sandals….that are not meant for swollen pregnant feet. Okay, another useless present.
I waddle into the kitchen to find some food, and Collin puts the girls in their high chairs. No mention of my birthday, and no breakfast cooked. The girls got sweet baby rice and had it all over them within a few minutes.
"Collin? Where's our breakfast?" I asked.
"Oh, I didn't know what you wanted, so I fixed myself an omelet while waiting for the girls to wake up. I think there is some cereal in the cabinet." He replied.
Seriously? He expects me to get up out of this chair and fix my own breakfast. I can't even reach into the cabinets because my belly keeps me out too far.
"Please fix me something, and I'll keep an eye on the girls. Anything but fruity pebbles or baby food will work." I suggested.
"I'll see if I can find something. There is a present on the table there for you. You can open it if you want." He said over his shoulder.
In this box is a blue and white silky halter-top dress… in a pre-baby size. Just the perfect thing to make me feel better about myself… a dress there is no way I can fit into anytime soon.
I toss the box on the table as Collin comes in with a plate of toast and scrambled eggs. "Did you like the dress I bought you?" He asked.
"I just noticed that it's too small. So far, for my birthday, I have gotten a too small pair of sandals, a too small dress, and a second baby wrap. No happy birthday, no love shown, just useless presents that make me feel fat." I replied.
Collin handed me a final box. "Maybe this will tie it all together and explain."
I opened the box to find a small diaper bag. "A diaper bag? Seriously?"
"Look inside. There is a gift certificate to the spa, and to your favorite restaurant. I knew you didn't feel like going out to celebrate today, so I bought everything we would need for a special night out after the baby is born. A baby wrap and diaper bag because I knew you wouldn't leave the new baby with a sitter so soon, and the dress and shoes are a new outfit for you to wear. I checked with Alex and bought the size she said you would be wearing right after the baby is born." Collin sighed.
"Nice thought, wrong presentation. Right now all the dress and shoes do is make me feel fat. I know I'm as big as a barn, seeing a dress that I should be able to wear in a few weeks doesn't help that. I know in my mind that I will lose the weight and not be this big forever, but it doesn't feel that way. I'm going for a walk….alone. You need to clean the girls up, give them a bath, and get them dressed for the day. It's past time for them to be out of their pjs. They have playgroup today anyways." I kissed my husband and walked out the door. I know he had good intentions, but today wasn't the day to remind me of how fat I am.
I walked around in the woods near our house for awhile, then sat on a log to rest a bit. My back hurt, but it always hurts when I walk more than a few steps. I roamed around looking at the leaves and thinking about how I hurt Collin's feelings. He has been really patient with me during this pregnancy, and I know my hormones have been out of whack.
I sat at the base of a tree and stared into the woods for a little bit, then a sharp pain hit. Before I could process what the pain was, another one hit, followed by a gush between my legs. I reached down and felt my pants. They were definitely soaked, so I pulled them down and off my legs.
The pains were back to back now, so I slowly stick my hand down there to see whats happening. "Great, just fantastic….Absolutely fudge-tasticly Wonderful. I'm in the woods by a tree, alone, and the baby has picked now to come."
I pull my knees up to my chest and push. After each push, I pause and check. On the fifth push, I catch my son. I use my pants to wrap him in, and collapse against the tree. Hopefully Collin comes to check on me soon. He won't believe that I just gave birth alone in the woods. This is definitely a birthday to remember.
I lightly doze off until I hear a stick cracking. I look up to see Collin coming towards me.
"Come see your son. Kevin Joel White." I motioned Collin over.
He came and sat next to me, and looked down at his son. "Did I ever tell you that you must be Wonderwoman? Mother of twin toddlers, and now you give birth alone… in the woods?"
"I wonder what the girls will think of their little brother. Joel is going to be outnumbered."
She had her baby...IN THE WOODS!!
Collin is so sweet! :)
lol, Jessie has to be difficult like that.... thats just who she is (Jessie is based off of one of my real life friends, lol)
Chapter 27
Rebecca's POV
When Sam called and said he had a house to show me, I never dreamed it would be this perfect. It has a nice sized yard, but plenty of shade. Spacious open kitchen, dining room, living room area downstairs, with a half bath, then upstairs are the bedrooms. There are three bedrooms and a bathroom besides the master. One of the bedrooms has a walk door to the master bedroom, so it can be used as a nursery.
"It's perfect. When can I start moving stuff in and buying furniture?" I asked.
"I have the keys with me if you are sure. It's a lot of house for the two of you." Sam replied.
"How much is it a month? Am I renting or buying it?" I asked.
"You can rent, but the owners prefer to sell. I can hold it until you make arrangements with the bank, if you want to buy." Sam explained.
"I want to buy it, and no need to make arrangements. I'll write a check for it. I have money from the sale of my property in Hawaii." I pulled out my checkbook and wrote a check. "Now, if you will give me the keys, I need to go check on my daughter. It's getting close to feeding time, and Dad is probably freaking out."
I take the keys and head to Dad's house. As soon as I settle in the rocker with Malia, I call Jake.
"Hey, baby bro. Where in Forks or nearby can I buy furniture? I just bought a house." I ask.
I listen for a minute, and then break in. "Yes, I know what I'm doing. I am an adult, a mother, and I'm older than you in fact. So… As I was saying, I bought a house, and now I need furniture. I'm ready to get settled in our own space, but need a bunch of furniture first. I at least need living room furniture, a desk, a bedroom set, and nursery stuff."
I arrange to let Jake take me shopping tomorrow morning, and decide to go nursery shopping myself. I can do that as soon as little Miss Malia decides she is full.
I felt wore out by the time I walked into the baby store. I decided to give Seth's wife my business, so I went to Little Miss Giggly. Seth's wife… that seems weird that little Seth is grown up, married, and has a child with another on its way.
Hayley met me just inside the door, and locked it behind me. "It's almost time for me to close anyway, and I thought you might need some help picking things out. You can put Malia over in the play area, if you want. Leala is asleep in her bassinet behind my desk, or I'd let you put Malia there." Hayley explained.
I walked over to the play area, and saw a playpen set up as a crib. I noticed an odd-looking pad under the blanket, and wires coming out of it.
"Oh, that's a baby monitor. It watches their body temperature and their breathing. If the temperature drops it beeps, and a warning goes off if the baby's breathing changes." Hayley showed me how it worked, and handed me a receiver to clip on my waist. I gently laid Malia down and covered her with the light blanket. I hope that she will sleep for a bit.
"What all are you looking for, so we know where to start?" Hayley asked.
"I need everything. Right now, she is sleeping in a borrowed co-sleeper. I just bought a house, so I want everything to fix her nursery up right. I'd like to take the things home today, or pick up tomorrow, instead of ordering things." I declared.
We started with a crib, and went from there. I found the prettiest crib bedding, which would work as she grew. I decided not to have it monogrammed, so if in the future, I have another baby, I could use the bedding again. Sigh, but that would require finding a decent guy that I felt I could trust. It seems like all the good guys here on reservation are taken. I found a rug and a lamp that have "m" on them, and a rocker. I finally decided on a changing table with drawers instead of a dresser.
After about 20 minutes of shopping, Malia woke up fussy. Before I got her calmed, she woke Leala so we had to take a baby break. I decided to just have Seth deliver the stuff tomorrow, and headed home. Jake is supposed to meet me at 7am to go furniture shopping. Since Malia has to go with us, I need to get her to bed soon.
I hope Rebecca get her new house up and running with all the baby necessities and meets a new guy!!
Chapter 28
Rebecca's POV
It's taken several days, but I finally have all the furniture in my house. Jake kept having to leave for work, or something would come up with Nessie or the kids. Thankfully Evan helped some, and he brought over his cousin Aric to help. Aric has been a lifesaver, even if he has almost given me a heart attack a few times.
It totally scared me when I heard Malia crying, then her cries suddenly stopped. I ran up the stairs and down the hall freaking out that she would be lying in her crib, not breathing, but instead found Aric holding her and soothing away her tears.
He is over so much that its beginning to feel normal. Just this morning, I turned to tell him something, just to realize he wasn't there. I never dreamed I could feel this comfortable around a guy who wasn't my brother. The house feels different when he isn't here, like something is missing.
I can tell Malia likes him also. He can soothe her with just a look or soft touch.
It is actually a warm sunny day today, no rain, so I think Malia and I will go to the little café in town for lunch today. It must be good since Aric and his partner eat there almost every day. For that matter, every time I drive by there are cop cars in the parking lot.
Aric and his partner were sitting at the counter when I walked in with Malia, so I just settled in an empty booth. Aric grinned at us, but stayed with his partner. I can never remember what the other cop's name is, so I'm glad they didn't come over.
I ordered my food, then tried to get Malia settled. I looked down to dig the nursing cover out of the diaper bag, when I heard a man's voice.
"Give me my daughter. She's mine and you can't have her." I heard.
I looked up to see this man looming over me. "Excuse me?" I asked.
"You heard me, you witch. I said that's my kid and you stole her from me. That's my daughter, not yours, and you aren't going to take her from me." This man yelled.
Behind the man, I could see Aric getting up to come over.
"Sir, you must be mistaken. I just moved here, and my daughter was born in Hawaii." I stated.
"Don't try to lie. I know who you are. My girlfriend didn't tell me she was knocked up before I was deployed. I came back from war to find that she is dead, and you stole my daughter." He ranted.
"Sir, I assure you this adoption was all legal. I was told you signed your rights away." I replied, trying to keep calm.
"I'm not leaving here without my daughter. You and your husband can go away for all I care. She is mine, and I will get her back." He leaned across the table.
Aric slid in next to me, and asked what the problem was.
"THE PROBLEM IS YOU AND YOUR BABY STEALING WIFE. I WANT MY DAUGHTER!!!!!!" The man shouted.
"Sir, you have a choice. You can calm down and contact our lawyer, and deal with him, or you can be arrested for threatening my wife. It's your choice." Aric wrapped his arm around me, and tossed a business card on the table.
The man opened his mouth to speak, but Aric cut him off. "I promise you will not get her back without a fight, and if anything happens to either of my girls, I will come looking for you."
The man grabbed the card and stormed out. Aric told the waitress to put my food on his account, and helped me out of the booth.
"Stevens, we are going to run Rebecca and Malia by Jake's house on our way back to the station. They aren't walking home with that creep in town." Aric informed his partner on our way to the squad car.
wow, holy cow what's with the jerk in the cafe? i sure hope she gets to keep malia...her and aric seem like a really good pair. can't wait to read your next update/

Ashton Kutcher has reportedly visited his estranged wife Demi Moore for a second time this week.
The 33-year-old apparently went to see her on Monday, the day after she was released from hospital, and now his car has been spotted arriving at her Los Angeles home again.
The Ghost actress, 49, was said to have been hospitalised after a violent reaction to nitrous oxide (laughing gas).
Last week, a spokeswoman for the star said: "Because of the stresses in her life right now, Demi has chosen to seek professional assistance to treat her exhaustion and improve her overall health.
"She looks forward to getting well and is grateful for the support of her family and friends."
Demi filed for divorce from Ashton in November last year after a San Diego woman said she had had a fling with the actor.

The birth mother of a 10-year-old Gwinnett County girl whose body was found stuffed in a garbage can is speaking out exclusively to FOX 5. Emani Moss' mother says she spent the last six years trying to see her daughter, but ongoing legal battles got in the way. Danita Leaks, the girl's birth mother, said that she was devastated when a Gwinnett County police detective told her Saturday that her daughter had died. Emani was found stuffed in a trash can Saturday. Police say the girl's father, Eman Moss, called 911 around 3:45 a.m. Saturday saying that his daughter drank some sort of chemical and was dead.
Police said that Emani may have been dead several days before her body was found.
"We believe she have been deceased as early as Wednesday of last week," said Detective Colin Flynn of the Gwinnett County Police Department. "After she was deceased, we do believe that her body was put into a trash can and it was burned in an attempt to dispose of the body."
Flynn said that Emani appeared to be emaciated and had not been fed regularly.
Emani's father and stepmother, Tiffany Moss, are being held in the Gwinnett County Detention Center on charges of murder and concealing a body.
Leaks said she hadn't seen her daughter since she was 6 years old. She told FOX 5 that she never knew her daughter was being abused. "I'm her mother, why didn't anyone call me?" Leaks told FOX 5. "DFACS has my information. Why didn't they call me and tell me that this was happening to my baby?" Leaks said that she and the girl's father fought over her custody in court for two or three years.
According to Leaks, Eman Moss had been arrested for abusing her when Emani was a baby, but she never thought he would abuse his own daughter. "If I would have known that him and his wife were abusing my baby, I would not have let her stay over there," Leaks said. Emani's paternal grandmother, Robin Moss, told FOX 5 on Sunday she too is devastated by the crime her son and daughter-in-law are accused of committing. She says she fought to have full custody of the child, and was frustrated when her daughter-in-law was actually charged with child cruelty but was later allowed to get her back after taking parenting classes. Robin Moss told FOX 5 the 10-year-old's life was a contrast between unconditional love and terror as she spent most of her life in the middle of the custody battle. She says the last words she ever heard out of her granddaughter's mouth were, "Grandmommy, I love you and I might not see you again." She says she is now haunted by those words.
Gwinnett County police believe that Emani was being home-schooled and apparently kept secluded.
Two other young children of Tiffany Moss who were at the home have now been placed in state custody, according to police.

Derrick Favors, who is ranked as the nation's No. 1 basketball prospect by several recruiting services, said there's no reason for Georgia Tech fans to worry over the next 10 days. Favors has been committed to the Yellow Jackets since January, and will officially sign the scholarship papers on April 15.
"There's always rumors going around, but I'm 100-percent committed to Georgia Tech," Favors told the AJC on Sunday night. "When I made my commitment, that was it. There haven't been any reasons to change things. Georgia Tech hasn't had a coaching change, and I'm real cool with the team, so I'm staying with them."
The rumor mill for college basketball recruiting is at its peak. John Calipari was named Kentucky's coach, and high-profile prospects committed or signed elswhere may follow him. If you recall, Calipari's former school, Memphis, was a finalist for Favors, along with UGA and N.C. State. Georgia named Mark Fox as its new coach on Friday.
Both Favors and his high school coach, Michael Reddick, said they have not had any recent contact with UGA or other schools. Basketball recruiting is just like football recruiting. With the elite prospects, coaches from competing schools may call right up until the moment the papers are signed. Favors has yet to write his name anywhere on official documents.
"I wouldn't be surprised if anyone tried to check into Derrick's situation, that's just the way recruiting works," South Atlanta's Reddick said. "But so far, nothing. Derrick is pretty much set on Georgia Tech. He wanted to be close to home, and Georgia Tech has been a favorite team of his since he was in the seventh grade. I don't see anything changing."
"We're just about at the end of our long [recruiting] journey. We're ready to hand over the reigns to Georgia Tech, and hopefully they will be able to push him to another level."
The 6-foot-9 Favors is one of the most celebrated high school players in state history, and was honored as Parade Magazine's 2009 National Player of the Year on Sunday. Favors also won MVP honors at last week's McDonald's All-America game, which also featured star-studded prospects DeMarcus Cousins and Xavier Henry. Favors said none of his McDonald's peers really talked to him about recruiting. "They are more worried about which school they are going to go."
Favors averaged 27.5 points and 13.3 rebounds as a senior, while leading South Atlanta to the Class AAA state championship. "I've always known and seen what Derrick can do," Reddick said. "It's great to see him get all the postseason recognition. It's just something else to make you proud about Derrick. Georgia Tech is getting a good one."

By Kelsea Stahler, Hollywood.com Staff
Despite being the main attraction of the longest running film franchise in history, the role of James Bond has never won anyone an Oscar. But it seems, Mr. Bond, that your luck could change.
Historically, the films themselves are wholly unappreciated come Oscar season, unless you count Goldfinger and Thunderball's Best Effects statuettes from 1964 and 1965. With Adele's Skyfall theme eligible for nomination this year, we can be certain the world's greatest spy will work his way into the Best Song category, and with the Producer's Guild handing Skyfall a best picture nomination in their often Oscar-predictive nomination rounds, things seem to be going in Bond's favor. But even if 007 falls short in the awards capacity, Oscar's got a pretty sweet birthday present for him as a consolation prize. The 85th Oscars will pay tribute to the largest film franchise in Hollywood history come Feb. 24.
"We are very happy to include a special sequence on our show saluting the Bond films on their 50th birthday,"" said producers Craig Zadan and Neil Meron in a press release. "Starting with Dr. No back in 1962, the 007 movies have become the longest-running motion picture franchise in history and a beloved global phenomenon.""
Honoring the 50 year-old series could be a simple way to spice up the Oscars ceremony in light of recent chatter that the glossy awards show has become dull and humdrum. Including a tribute to everyone's favorite spy with, of course, the familiar bombastic bump of Monty Norman's classic "James Bond Theme" is sure to lend a sense of excitement to this year's Oscars. No one can resist the pull of that surf rock riff (or the parade of handsome men and gorgeous women that come with it).
Of course, with Skyfall's overwhelming critical praise (including plenty for leading man Daniel Craig), monumental box office success (it just passed the $1 billion mark worldwide), and villain played by none other than Oscar-winner (and possible dark horse Best Supporting Actor nominee this year) Javier Bardem, if there was ever a year for Bond to break on through, it would be 2013.
The 85th Academy Awards air live on Sunday, Feb. 24 on ABC.

Since I am not a Coro collector my expertise is nil. I could use some help from those of you who know about this brand. Included here are 4 photos I took of what seems to me to illustrate inferior quality on the pin. It was among items owned by 1 person and not found by me elsewhere.
While photographing the pin, I noted some rough spots next to one of the smaller blue stone settings along the swirls and again on the upper swirl. The Coro logo also looks rather poorly done - almost like the metal punch didn't quite do its job. Is this unusual?
Your comments would be most helpful. I was going to put the pin up for resale but I question the quality.
Thank you for your helpful responses. I'm an eager pupil. DD@Phila

OAKLAND, Calif. -- The Oakland Athletics dominance of Texas Rangers ace Yu Darvish continued to be as predictable as it is inexplicable Tuesday night at the O.co Coliseum.
The A's beat Darvish for the eighth consecutive time, rolling to a 10-6 victory as left-hander Tommy Milone won his career-high tying fifth straight game.
Darvish was out of the game by the time A's catcher Derek Norris came off the bench to slug his fourth career pinch hit home run, a three-run blast in the sixth inning off reliever Shawn Tolleson, and add a two-run double in the eighth off Jason Frasor. But Norris had a front row seat as his teammates racked up eight hits and seven runs, four earned, over five innings against Darvish.
"I don't know what it is, but sometimes good pitchers just have that one kryptonite team where they just always struggle, and before too long it gets in your head and you're unable to execute the pitches you need to execute," Norris said.
Darvish (7-3) struck out eight and walked five, falling to 1-8 for his career against the A's in 10 starts. His lone win came in his first career start against Oakland on May 6, 2012, at Arlington. In his previous start against Oakland, Darvish gave up four runs over 3 1/3 innings, the shortest start of his career.
Darvish came into Tuesday's start off his first career complete game and shutout, a 6-0 victory against Miami. He entered the game with a 2.11 ERA, third lowest in the American League, and a four-game winning streak.
The A's, as usual, weren't impressed.
"It's not how they approached me," Darvish said. "I just didn't have my stuff. That was the reason."
Rangers manager Ron Washington said Darvish "couldn't command the fastball," which put him at a huge disadvantage.
"If he would have been able to command the fastball it would have been a different story," Washington said. "After he couldn't command the fastball there wasn't much he could find to get in the strike zone to make something happen. It just wasn't his night."
Milone (5-3) allowed three runs on five hits over 5 2/3 innings and improved to 2-4 for his career against Texas. He struck out three and walked one.
"Tommy's really on a roll," A's manager Bob Melvin said. "We feel really good about our chances whenever he takes the mound."
Rangers second baseman Rougned Odor hit a solo home run in the fifth and a two-run triple in the seventh.
A's right fielder Stephen Vogt went 3-for-3 against Darvish and drove in two runs. Catcher John Jaso went 2-for-3 with a double and a run scored off Darvish.
"I don't really know him that well, but the only three times I've seen him is when we've kind of hit him around," Vogt said. "He's such a good pitcher. We've been fortunate enough to have some success against him. I don't have anything to explain that. I'm sure any pitcher in the world that gives up runs is going to be frustrated. Is there extra frustration against us? I don't know. He's such a good pitcher"
The A's took a 5-3 lead into the bottom of the sixth inning and extended it to 8-3 on Norris' eighth homer of the season.
Texas scored three times in the seventh as Odor ripped a two-run triple off right-hander Dan Otero and scored on center fielder Daniel Robertson's ground out, but Norris one-hopped a two-run double off the left-center wall in the eighth.
"Maybe you bear down a little more, just like a pitcher does with runners on," Norris said, trying to explain his success with runners on base. "I'm just trying not to do too much, just trying to put the barrel on the ball and put it in play and whatever happens, happens."
NOTES: Oakland placed LHP Drew Pomeranz on the 15-day disabled list. Pomeranz broke his right hand punching a wooden chair in frustration after his rough start Monday night in a 14-8 loss to Texas. The A's acquired Pomeranz's likely rotation replacement, landing LHP Brad Mills from the Milwaukee Brewers in a minor league trade in exchange for cash considerations. The A's don't need to add a starting pitcher until Saturday against the Boston Red Sox. Right-handed reliever Evan Scribner was recalled Tuesday from Triple-A Sacramento. ... Struggling Rangers LHP Robbie Ross Jr. was demoted to Triple-A Round Rock, one day after he allowed two runs over one-third of an inning Monday. That marked his third rough outing in his past four relief appearances. The Rangers recalled LHP Aaron Poreda from Round Rock to replace Ross in the bullpen. ... Texas signed free agent 1B Carlos Pena to a minor league contract and assigned him to Round Rock. He has 285 career homers.

Hi! My name is Taylor! This is my story. :)
Taylor was born into a rather normal family. Her older sister lived out of town, and her brother lived in London. She moved around a lot as a kid, going to a lot of different schools and meeting a lot of people. When she was around 10, her parents started having problems, arguing and finding other people. Taylor's life got harder.
As she got older she found happiness in her music, which helped her through it all.
This day, she's happily settled in a town in Poland with her music and friends.

Monday's storm damaged multiple areas of the Tennessee Valley overnight, and in one county, emergency management officials have requested a damage survey by the National Weather Service..
Colbert County suffered some damage as well with down trees and power lines. County EMA officials want the NWS to survey damage in the Leighton area.
EMA Director Mike Melton said the storm cut a path from Clements Road to County Line Road. Crews have been working through Tuesday to repair power and clear roads in the area.
"There is actually a track for probably about three miles," said Melton. "Some of this is very small trees; a light barn."
Officials said that no injuries were reported in the storm. For one man whose home narrowly missed being crushed by several falling trees, he is glad he and his wife were not hurt.
The 90-year-old said he hand-picked the trees and planted them over 60 years ago. He said it was a higher power that helped protect him and his wife.
"We're real fortunate it missed the house," said Logan. "If it would have come straight across the house it would have just split it in half. Somebody said the Lord just pushed it away from the house."
NWS officials could be in Colbert County surveying damage as early as Wednesday.
Elsewhere, a bus barn in Lauderdale County was damaged by the weather.
The Lauderdale County EMA said the Board of Education Bus Barn was damaged. They said diesel pumps were hit and spilled fuel. Winds peeled back the roof of the barn.
In addition to debris from buildings, Florence city crews were dispatched throughout the night working to restore power and clear the road of fallen limbs and trees. At least one car was reported smashed from a tree limb on Walnut Street.
The Franklin County EMA reported that they have some trees down. They also have some power outages and pea-sized hail.
Lawrence County EMA reported several trees down, some scattered power outages in the Hatton area.
The City of Athens reported a transformer on fire on Sanders Street, a tree blocked Elkton street off Elm Street until about 10:30 p.m. Monday, a tree blocking Irvin Street, and a tree hanging over 5th Avenue by 5th Avenue Apartments. A steeple was damaged at Hispanic First Baptist on Madison Street.
The City of Huntsville saw multiple power outages, some down trees, and Huntsville Police reported a tree on a house on Fairbanks Street Monday night.

What causes a vaginal yeast infection?
Since yeast can be normally present in the vagina, an infection typically occurs when there is disruption of the normal balance of protective bacteria in the vagina. This disruption can happen when a woman takes certain medications (including antibiotics). Changes in hormone levels and illnesses can also affect the balance of bacteria in the vagina and lead to yeast infection. Conditions that result in a suppression of the immune response, such as cancer, chemotherapy, steroid medications, and diabetes, increase the risk of developing yeast infections. Sometimes, no direct cause of the yeast infection can be identified.
What are the signs and symptoms of a vaginal yeast infection?
Symptoms can include a vaginal discharge that is typically thick and whitish-gray in color. The discharge has been described as having a cottage-cheese-like consistency.
Other symptoms of a vaginal yeast infection include:
How is a vaginal yeast infection diagnosed?
Even though the signs and symptoms of yeast infection may point to the cause, vaginal itching and discharge can be caused by other conditions including bacterial vaginosis and Trichomonas infections. To most accurately make the diagnosis, a sample of the discharge is tested in the laboratory, either by culture or by direct examination under a microscope, to identify the yeast organisms and to help rule out other causes such as bacterial vaginosis or sexually-transmitted pathogens.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
This upcoming school year will be my children's second year attending and we love this school!!! I have never witnessed a greater staff or a better principal! He is very involved with the children and their activities. Its so wonderful to see someone in leadership be so "fun like" involved with elementary students like he is.
My son attends Green St. School he is almost done with Kindergarten now he has grown so much in all his skills and I believe this is due to the quality of his teacher. She does amazing teaching them.
The staff is caring, hard-working, and operate as a close-knit team.
This school is wonderful and has excellent teachers that excel in helping your children do the same, but also doing it in fun and exciting ways for kids instead of pushing them too hard. They have a great community garden, healthy lunch and snack programs, winter sports program, and every Thursday sing a long where parents can come in and sing with their kids. Children here are encouraged ot learn without feeling pressure so they can enjoy being a kid!
Green Street School has many positive aspects. However, the overall culture appears to be stagnant in that there have been no real 21st century initiatives that have increased academic performance, addressed the diversity of the school or accounted for increased and modern technology.
I haven't met all the teachers but I think Joanne Barber and Sue Snow are incredible dedicated teachers who love the children and put them first in all things.
Excellent teachers (w/ only 1 or 2 exceptions) with innovative ideas. Great music and art programs, as well as lots of other activities (plays, variety show, spelling and geography bees, etc.) A very safe, very nurturing, very stimulating environment. No sports. Parental involvement welcomed in the classroom, on field trips, in musical activities. We were very happy that our 2 children got to experience this wonderful public school.

SOUTH MILWAUKEE, WI (WTAQ) - About 60 more employees are being laid off at Caterpillar's mining equipment factory in South Milwaukee.
The steelworkers' union says the layoffs will run for an unknown period of time -- and for now, almost 50 employees could be moved into other parts of the plant.
Caterpillar's mining equipment division is based in South Milwaukee. The company reduced its international workforce by about 13,000 last year, including 400 at plants in South Milwaukee and the city of Milwaukee. Those plants used to employ a total of over 800.
Before last year, the rising prices of commodities resulted in a boom for mining equipment makers -- but that fell apart after the demand dropped for materials which are mined.

Murder of Houston Transgender Woman Raises Media Coverage Concerns
January 25, 2010
This post is from HRC Board of Directors member Meghan Stabler of Houston: One week ago today the half-naked body of Myra Ical, a 51-year-old transgender woman was found in a vacant lot in the Montrose area of Houston. Initial media reports referred to Myra by her male name and used male pronouns along with placing emphasis that her body was found in an area known for drugs and prostitution. The Houston Chronicle reported that Ruben Dario Ical "also went by the name of Myra Chanel Ical" and that "he had numerous bruises and defensive wounds, as if he had struggled against his attacker." Myra's attacker remains at large and this represents the 7th Houston transgender murder case in the last few years that has still to be resolved. The brutal attack on her is devastating to the community. Yet much like the 'shot heard around the world,' initial media reporting that was lazy and irresponsible then propagated bad journalism as it was reused across media outlets. The majority of the reports showed the amount of ignorance about transgender issues that is rampant among far too many reporters despite the existence of resources to help them report accurately. With so many local LGBT resources and organizations available to local media I continue to be surprised that mainstream news sources get it wrong. The prevalence of violent attacks against transgender people is horrible and yet the situation is compounded when the press does not respect the transgender community enough to write about us in ways that are both accurate and that recognizes our humanity. Journalists must realize that transgender people have the right to fair, accurate and inclusive reporting of their stories and their issues, ever more so evident when a life is tragically stolen from us such as Ms. Ical. The media's inability to follow nationally recognized LGBT reporting guidelines bolsters fear, further dehumanizes the transgender community, perpetuates a lack of understanding and supports a culture of transphobic violence. It must stop. Any violent attack, be it a hate crime or not, must stop. Accurate and fair reporting in the mainstream media needs to start, and when notified of errors, corrections made. We must do all that we can to urge reporters to 'use fair, accurate and inclusive reporting' when covering LGBT issues. The murder of Ms. Ical must be solved and the violence against transgender people eliminated. Some of that responsibility starts with correct and humanistic reporting based on fairness, integrity and respect for the transgender and LGB community as a whole. Members of HRC Houston will join in solidarity with the Transgender community of Houston for a public memorial and candlelight vigil at 6 p.m. on Monday, January 25 to honor Myra Ical. The memorial will include two moments of silence, one for Ms. Ical and another for the other 6 transgender Houstonians who have been murdered and whose crimes remain unsolved. A moment of noise-making will take place to recognize that it is silence that allows the perpetrators of crime to go unpunished. The Memorial will be held at the site where Ms. Ical's body was found. If you are in Houston on Monday evening please attend. See the Facebook events for more information. Anyone who might know anything about this crime or who might have witnessed it is urged to call Crime Stoppers. Crime Stoppers will pay up to $5,000 for any information called in to the 713-222-8477 tips hotline or submitted online at www.crimestoppers.org that leads to the identification, arrest and/or charging of the any of the suspects in this case.

Earnings trump debt rhetoric
Tune out the president's scare tactics and instead focus on earnings season.
Interest rates skyrocketing? Mortgage costs going through the roof? Can't afford to send your kid to college? Did the president really imply last night that all of these horrors await us if we don't pass a debt ceiling deal, we default and the ratings agencies downgrade us?
Actually, he didn't imply it, he straight out said it. Now, we don't know what will actually happen to the dollar or interest rates if -- and now likely when -- we don't pass the new ceiling. But whatever happens will be short-lived, and I was pretty shocked that the president went so "scare tactic" on this issue last night.
Sure, rates could go up a bit and the dollar go down a tad, but I simply don't regard this issue as anything other than one more we will muddle through like we have all of the other times since 1776.
One has to wonder, however: Did the president do this to have the market plummet? Did he give his speech to create enough fear out there that people will sell everything and then he can go to Congress and say, "Come on, this is what the Republicans have done here, and they will do more of it unless we get an agreement"?
If that's the case -- and it sure feels that way, ever since that ridiculous "deal by when Asian markets open or else" talk last week -- all I can say is the president did it at a lousy time: earnings season. Right now, earnings are trumping any of this ridiculous rhetoric and scaremongering.
Stay the course.
Tune it out.

we're in a replay of the great depression. things will be weird for the next decade. for fast cash - do whatever you want. for future planning, pay off your house and keep extra cash safe.
the downside today is we're not focused on any sort of jobs program. the great depression saw WWII as a stimulus program. unless we want to start WWIII we'll not see any stimulus that way.
what "jobs" program will usa start next seeing how we sent most all our jobs overseas. casino chips?
The debt ceiling in itself is probably unconstitutional. Read Section 4of the 14th Amendment:
Section 4. The validity of the public debt of the United States, authorized by law, including debts incurred for payment of pensions and bounties for services in suppressing insurrection or rebellion, shall not be questioned.
If Congress passed the legislation to spend the money, then it would be unconstitutional not to fund it...period. Both Congress and the President could be impeached if the legislation calls for payment and the bills aren't paid since they both take an oath to uphold and defend the Constitution.
We should just stop this nonsense about paying our bills and let the voters decide in 2012 which party has the vision to get this country out of the mess caused by the party that took a budget surplus and turned it into out of control deficits.
Gotta Love Cramer's advice folks... I still remember him telling his viewers days before the crash..."BUY BEAR STEARNS!!" BAHAHA!!! Great advice Jimbo! Funny you should criticize the president for timing now (Nope, we haven't forgotten that one yet).
You say it 'feels' like the president is fear mongering...well we have seen how your 'feelings' have played out before. Save it buddy, you have no more of the little credibility you once had. Wish I had a sound effect for that one...Whah Whah!!! HA!
You should just stick to gambling with with other people's paper and stay out of substantive issues that actually matter. You traitors...oops...traders are a different breed all together.
Does he think we are ALL idiots. It sounds like he has his own interests in mind!
The Republicans have been fooling America for so long that they have tipped the scale now.
It is scary that they are not fearful anymore about their jobs etc. They just think we are all a
bunch of dummies.
Lets see. Lets take away money from the handicapped, and the elderly but lets not get rid of loopholes for the 2% wealthy who will still make more money than the rest of us.And talk about
scare tactics. It will NOT hurt jobs to take away loopholes!
Why would anyone support that? Actually most Americans dont! We just need to take a stand
and let the people who care about the average person stand up to be counted. Lets not let people like Crammer manipulate us!
So, the Republicans whine that eliminating the Bush Tax cuts that Obama extended for 2 years because he had to appease the party of NO... is also called a Tax INCREASE... (take away their money = tax increase).
So, is cutting money from SS and other programs that the low income class needs not a tax increase?
Take money away from the rich = Tax Increase
Take money away from the non rich = Spending Cuts.
Republicans don't do Tax Increases. That explains why they think they way they do.
And Trickle down economics? Yeah. Give a CEO a 10 millon dollar bonus and what does he do with it? Invests it to make 20 millon dollars, pays a flat 15% tax rate on Capital gains (a subsidy that the RICH get) and creates how many jobs?
Probably one. They have to hire another wall street trader to manage his account and transactions. Job creation to the max.
Give 10 millon dollars to 4000 low / middle income class families? They will spend FAR more of it for goods/services because that is what they rely on to live.
Here is trickle down economics in the Corporate World.
Give BOA billions in TARP money because they are too big to fail. QE2 and other "stimulus" packages that were supposed to open up lending to Small Business. BOA pays their CEO, other executives and "top tier" managers 4,400,000,000 in bonuses last year (4.4 BILLION). BOA hoards the cash and puts it into investments to return profits so they can increase their dividends and bonuses. BOA pays 0.01% interest on savings accounts to the non wealthy account holders.
Yup, trickle down at its best. Gotta run. My interest is due on my business savings account today. Gotta run spend my whopping $.03 in interest and try to create a job.
Tell me, WHERE ARE THE JOBS? They're still getting their handouts from the government, BUT THEY'RE KEEPING IT IN THEIR POCKETS to buy YACHTS and HOMES and nice NEW CARS with.
But they'd rather KEEP THEIR HANDOUTS and put all of this on the backs of veterans who FOUGHT AND DIED for this country, and seniors who have ALREADY WORKED THEIR BUTTS OFF.
JRJ1122 you said: "so all you people complain about the rich getting more breaks, well keep dreaming they pay more in one tax year than most will pay in 5-10, also by the rich, top 5% of the nation, having more money they are able to spend more on services/goods which will allow businesses to make more money and therefore afford more jobs to be created thus allowing more people to make more money. Its the trickle down effect people"
You know you hear this kind of crap all the time, but how do you explain 5% of the people spending more on service and goods? They eat more? The Mercedes that isn't built here? The trips they take to Europe? The million dollar home, how does that spur jobs? That logic is a bunch of crap. I'm middle class, and some of those millionaires probably pay the same taxes I do. What jobs are we getting from Big Oil with 13 billion in tax breaks? New Bank jobs anywhere from bail outs? How about new automotive jobs? New jobs in the steel industry? I'm clueless to understand where these new jobs are that the tax breaks created.
