AW. There aren't enough good Talented Mr. Ripley stories. I'm glad you wrote this one. It's sweet.

Artful little touches & smooth-flowing dialogue. I liked this.

d'aw. *sniffles* Peter's innocence pains me after what really happened.
Well done, mate. You better be proud.

This was so good. The descriptions are wonderful. Peter is perfectly drawn. Loved reading it.
| Marla Singer chapter 1 . 1/31/2006
I really loved this! I especially liked the last part because it seems like it would be exactly what Peter would be thinking in that scene.
| Emma chapter 1 . 12/2/2005
This was a really beautiful story. I love how you wrote Peter, he's my favorite character from the movie and you got him down just right. It made my heart break, just like the real movie did.
| L'AmatricedeTrappes chapter 1 . 8/13/2005
This is absolutely gorgeous! The writing is lovely, but it's certainly not over-written. The last sentence is perfect and sums up Peter's character beautifully.
Every one of the characters were flawlessly portrayed. Dickie's glamorous illusions, Marge's naivety, and Tom's broken confusion stood out to me.
I was intrigued by the line, "Tom is real, where Dickie was a dream." This optimism provides quite an insight into Peter's character- how most the characters in the film could see through Tom eventually, but Peter interprits Tom's emptiness of person as mysteriousness and believes that there is more to him. Part of Peter's charm is how he always percieves the beauty in people and has his own brand of innocence.
The pairing hadn't occured to me before, but you made it work so well it could be canon. This is definately going to be added to my favorites list. As you can tell, this really gave me some concepts to think over, wonderfully done!
| LadyBush chapter 1 . 7/30/2005
Your writing is beautiful, especially the use of colour in the first line. Indigo sky- very atmospheric. That line about Marge as the other half of the 'duet of shame' is wonderful too. It's images like this that sends shivers down my spine! And you seem to have a real "feel" for the fifties- too often people's writing seems to ignore period but yours doesn't. I never considered Peter/Dickie before - probably because I love Peter and hate Dickie - and yet I like the way this gives Peter and Tom something in common.

Brothers in Arms: The Epic Story of the 761st Tank Battalion, WWII's Forgotten Heroesby Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Anthony Walton
View All Available Formats & Editions
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar first learned about the battalion from family friend Leonard "Smitty" Smith, a veteran/i>
A powerful wartime saga in the bestselling tradition of Flags of Our Fathers, BROTHERS IN ARMS recounts the extraordinary story of the 761st "Black Panthers," the first all-black armored unit to see combat in World War II.
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar first learned about the battalion from family friend Leonard "Smitty" Smith, a veteran of the battalion. Working with acclaimed writer Anthony Walton, Abdul-Jabbar interviewed the surviving members of the battalion and their descendants to weave together a page-turning narrative based on their memories and stories, from basic training through the horrors on the battlefield to their postwar experiences in a racially divided America.
Trained essentially as a public relations gesture to maintain the support of the black community for the war, the battalion was never intended to see battle. In fact, General Patton originally opposed their deployment, claiming African Americans couldn't think quickly enough to operate tanks in combat conditions. But the Allies were so desperate for trained tank personnel in the summer of 1944, following heavy casualties in the fields of France, that the battalion was called up.
While most combat troops fought on the front for a week or two before being rotated back, the men of the 761st served for more than six months, fighting heroically under Patton's Third Army at the Battle of the Bulge and in the Allies' final drive across France and Germany. Despite a casualty rate that approached 50 percent and an extreme shortage of personnel and equipment, the 761st would ultimately help liberate some thirty towns and villages, as well as the Gunskirchen Lager concentration camp.
The racism that shadowed them during the war and the prejudice they faced upon their return home is an indelible part of their story. What shines through most of all, however, are the lasting bonds that united them as soldiers and brothers, the bravery they exhibited on the battlefield, and the quiet dignity and patriotism that defined their lives.
Editorial Reviews

More than a combat story or a segregated version of Stephen Ambrose's Band of Brothers. It's also the story of how black soldiers had to fight (literally and figuratively) for the right to fight the Germans." —USA Today
"A wholly different perspective on the 'greatest generation.'" —People (Critic's Choice)
"A brilliant and moving narrative that through its imagery helps the reader appreciate the hardness of battle." —Charlotte Observer
"A slam dunk . . . Well written, well researched and an excellent read . . . Abdul-Jabbar does an incredible job of weaving [the personal stories] into the context of the war as it unfolded." —Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
"A touching profile of men who fought overt and subtle racism for the chance to prove their mettle, and a poignant reminder of the unreasonable prejudices of that era that almost kept them on the sidelines." —Sacramento Bee

"Not only an exciting, informative military history for the general reader but also a revealing and moving record of racism in America's past." —Houston Chronicle

Read an Excerpt
The atmosphere of the whole country was to get in the service and help. I wanted to do my part.
--William McBurney
When seventeen-year-old Leonard Smith stepped off the United States Army troop train in Rapides Parish, Louisiana, in the fall of 1942, it was the first time he had been outside of New York State. For the last three days, he had been traveling with fourteen other recruits, headed to Camp Claiborne, seventeen miles southwest of Alexandria. There, they were to join a recently established armored unit. To Smith's surprise, the train stopped in an open field. The sergeants on the train threw the young soldiers' bags out and told them to get off. Smith and his companions, in full dress uniform and carrying their regulation duffel bags, waited for four hours in the empty field on the outskirts of the Kisatchie National Forest, watching the sun move across the sky. Finally, two of them set off on foot to find help.
Leonard Smith was one of the more than six hundred men who would come together at Camp Claiborne during the Second World War to form the 761st Tank Battalion. They would hail from over thirty states, from small towns and cities scattered throughout the country, from places as varied as Los Angeles, California, and Holtulka, Oklahoma; Springfield, Illinois, and Picayune, Mississippi; Billings, Montana, and Baltimore, Maryland. Most had volunteered. Some were the middle-class sons of doctors, undertakers, schoolteachers, and career military men; among the officers were a Yale student and a football star from UCLA who would later make his mark in American sports and American history. Many more were the sons of janitors, domestics, factory workers, and sharecroppers.
Their combat record in Europe during the war was noteworthy. They were to earn a Presidential Unit Citation for distinguished service, more than 250 Purple Hearts, 70 Bronze Stars, 11 Silver Stars, and a Congressional Medal of Honor in 183 straight days on the front lines of France, Germany, Belgium, Luxembourg, Holland, and Austria. These accomplishments carried a significance, however, beyond the battlefield. The unit's official designation was "The 761st Tank Battalion (Colored)." As they waited in that hot Louisiana field, Leonard Smith and his fellow recruits were on their way to becoming part of the first African American unit in the history of the United States Army to fight in tanks.
In the fall of 1942, the battlefields of Europe and the Pacific seemed far from the backwater post of Camp Claiborne, Louisiana. They were as far from Leonard Smith's experience as Camp Claiborne had been before he boarded the train in New York City. Smith was born in Harlem Hospital on November 2, 1924; he was a sickly child at birth, weighing less than five pounds, with both colic and a heart murmur. His mother abandoned him shortly after he was born. Lulu Hasbruck, who worked for New York City taking in children with medical complications, cared for Smith during those early, precarious years. Other foster children regularly moved in and out of Hasbruck's home, but Smith and two girls, Thelma and Flora, remained. Smith would come to regard Lulu as his mother, though she never formally adopted him.
Despite his short, skinny frame and the heart murmur that kept him from playing school sports, Smith became an active, adventuresome child, regularly challenging other kids in his Brooklyn, and later Queens, neighborhood to footraces around the block. The neighborhood kids didn't seem to mind losing to him. There was something about him that adults and classmates immediately responded to, a combination of good-naturedness, irrepressibility, and naivete that made him impossible to dislike.
He loved singing, and was good enough even at age eight to solo with the senior choir at local churches. But his obsession was airplanes. A favorite teacher rewarded students for exceptional performance by buying them a toy of their choice from the neighborhood five-and-dime. Smith hated arithmetic, but he worked hard to get high marks so that she would have to buy him a toy. He invariably picked out model planes, pictures of planes, and books about planes. Though he had never seen an airplane up close, there was something about the idea of planes and flying, the freedom of movement flying symbolized, that endlessly fired his high-spirited imagination.
Money was scarce. Clothes for foster children were provided by the city, a source of some discomfort for the children: People knew they were "home" children, wards of the city, because of the way they dressed. But the only thing Smith really missed was not having a father. When other kids in the neighborhood would talk about things they'd done with their fathers, he would make up stories about fishing trips and family outings. When asked why his father wasn't around, he would tell his friends his father was traveling on business. He made an imaginary father out of Mrs. Hasbruck's deceased husband, George, collecting countless details about him: Mrs. Hasbruck told him that George had smoked a pipe with Prince Albert tobacco, and Smith vowed that when he grew up he'd do the same. Mrs. Hasbruck's two brothers gave Smith spending money from time to time, but they rarely provided him with fatherly guidance. He had to learn everything for himself, and he often made mistakes.
One such mistake contributed to his decision to enlist in the Army. As a teenager, he had enrolled at Chelsea Vocational High School to study aviation mechanics. There he fell in with a group of older boys, budding delinquents who played hooky every Friday, shoplifting tools from local stores. It was typical of the guileless Smith that he continued going to class long after the boys he hung out with had stopped. It was also typical that while Smith's adventuresome ness led him to skirt the edges of disaster, his good-naturedness and good luck just as often kept him out. A neighborhood cop who knew and liked Smith pulled him aside, telling him that the boys he was running around with were going to wind up in prison one way or another. "Have you ever considered joining the Army?" he asked.
Smith had considered it--it was May 1942, and the United States had been at war for six months--but at seventeen, he had thought he was too young to enlist. American troops were already engaging in bloody combat in the Pacific, surrendering after a hopelessly one-sided struggle in the Philippines on May 6, but stalling the advance of the Japanese two days later in the Battle of the Coral Sea. Like millions of families across the country, the Hasbrucks listened to the radio every night for war updates. When he went to the local cinema, Smith avidly watched the early newsreels of combat. He knew exactly what he wanted to enlist as: a fighter pilot. He imagined himself streaking through the skies, on the lookout for Japanese Zeros, engaging in dogfights, dropping bombs on enemy aircraft carriers. In Smith's young mind, war was a kind of game. He had no concept of war's brutality, and he was eager to join the fight. At the policeman's suggestion, he went to the induction office on Whitehall Street in lower Manhattan carrying a permission form signed by his foster mother.
The doctor administering the Army physical failed to notice his slight heart murmur, and passed him. Smith told the recruiter who processed his application that he wanted to be a pilot. The sergeant told him that was not possible--the Army Air Corps did not accept blacks. Smith barely managed to swallow his disappointment. Citing his training in high school, he then said he wanted to be an aviation mechanic. Again, he was told that was not possible. The Army's rigid color line took Smith by surprise. Growing up in the New York City of the 1920s and '30s, he had encountered his share of discrimination: There were certain neighborhood pools where he was not permitted to go swimming, and certain stores where the entrance of anybody black was announced by ringing bells to rouse white clerks to extra vigilance. But despite such small daily indignities, it had somehow never occurred to him that the color of his skin would impact his future, his lifelong dream of working with planes.
He had scored high marks on the Army's IQ screening test. "Infantry you definitely don't want," the sergeant advised him. The next-best thing to the air force was armored, the sergeant said. "Armored?" Smith asked. The sergeant replied, "Tanks. They're starting a couple of colored tank battalions. How would you like that?" Smith had never seen a tank--in fact, he had no idea what a tank was. But he was game for anything. The sergeant told him that as a volunteer, "if that's what you want, that's where you're going to go."
William McBurney was as reserved and cautious as Leonard Smith was naive and adventuresome. Although the two men didn't know each other, McBurney took the subway to the induction office just days after Smith. His motives in doing so were mixed. Like Smith, he had watched the news updates of the war: A wave of patriotism had swept the country in the wake of the bombing of Pearl Harbor, and thousands of young men across the country enlisted every day. McBurney was eager to do his part for the war effort. But he also saw the Army as an escape.
McBurney was born in Harlem on May 21, 1924. His parents divorced when he was very young; his mother moved away to Florida, and he saw her only rarely after that. He was raised by his father and stepmother. When he was twelve years old, his younger brother died of scarlet fever. Though devastated by the loss, McBurney did what he had watched his father do all his life: bury the pain deep inside, and keep moving.
William had always been in awe of his father. A smart, determined, and ambitious man, his father had been born dirt poor around the turn of the century in Titusville, Florida. Seeing no prospects for advancement there, he had worked his way north to New York City as a railroad porter. At the outbreak of World War I, he had volunteered for the Army, serving in a quartermaster unit in Europe. When he returned to New York, still searching for a means of steady employment and advancement, he had worked his way through school to become a dental technician. But in the 1920s it was very difficult for blacks to find work in professional jobs. With a young wife and a growing family to support, he had no choice but to turn to manual labor, working on the docks and, later, with the advent of the Great Depression, for the Civilian Conservation Corps, one of the massive public works programs started by the federal government.
William McBurney was an intelligent, active boy. Despite his large size, he was not coordinated or good at sports: His one physical gift was a powerful right hook. Though he never went out of his way to seek out a fight, neither did he ever turn away from one. He got into the usual number of scrapes for a kid in Harlem in the 1930s--often chasing or being chased by Italian kids from adjacent neighborhoods--but he was also always at one remove from whatever he was doing, thinking several steps ahead. He had already noticed the kinds of trouble young black men often got into, especially with the police, and he intended to avoid it. With his air of watchfulness, his quiet, steady intelligence, and his physical courage, he stood out in his group of friends as the one you wanted watching your back.
Like Smith and countless other African Americans at that time, McBurney was tracked early in his school career toward shop class, regardless of his intelligence or academic success. Given the options available to him at New York Vocational High School, like Leonard Smith he chose to study aviation mechanics. A female cousin was taking flying lessons at Floyd Bennet Field, and watching that plane take off and sail away made McBurney dream of becoming a pilot. But as time went on, it was a dream he seemed to have less and less hope of attaining. After school and on Saturdays he worked at a paintbrush factory for twenty-five cents an hour, helping his family to weather the Depression. Many of his friends had taken similar menial jobs. As high school graduation approached, many more of his friends, with no real opportunities for advancement, were falling into gambling and petty theft. McBurney saw himself and his friends moving steadily toward dead-end lives.
Like many young men, he had romanticized his father's service in World War I--the more so because his taciturn father never talked about it. He saw the Army as a way of creating a new life for himself, and of realizing his secret dream of flying. When he told his father he wanted to join the Army Air Corps, he was surprised to find his father immediately dismissive. He didn't believe the Air Corps would accept an African American. This only made McBurney more determined. Three days after his eighteenth birthday, he took the train to the recruitment center on Whitehall Street.
His father's warning about the Air Corps turned out to be all too true--as Leonard Smith had already discovered, no blacks were allowed to join. To McBurney, it was a slap in the face. Nonetheless, he decided to enlist. Like Smith, he had scored high marks on the Army's intelligence test. Though he also had no idea what a tank was, he found himself, like Smith, steered by the recruiter into armored.
After passing his physical and being given his shots, McBurney was sent by train with several other fresh recruits to Camp Upton, a processing center surrounded by open potato fields in Suffolk County, Long Island. Thousands of Army recruits would move through the sprawling complex between 1941 and 1945. The recruits spent two weeks living in tents, where they were given close haircuts, uniforms, and basic gear; then they were moved into barracks. They performed a series of marching and close-order drills each day, learning the basics of military procedure and decorum, as well as carrying out KP duty and cleaning the grounds of the camp. Finding themselves with a great deal of free time on their hands, they held a series of boxing and softball tournaments as they waited endlessly, it seemed to McBurney, for their orders to come. During orientation, they had seen motivational documentaries chronicling the reasons the country was at war, highlighting the battles that had been fought to date, and firing them up against Germany and Japan. All were eager to get overseas and get started. They wanted in on the action.
The close friendships that would characterize the men in combat were already beginning to form. William McBurney first met Leonard Smith at Camp Upton. Despite, or perhaps because of, their vast temperamental differences--Smith was the sort who leapt before looking, while McBurney was the one who held back; Smith's humor tended toward open-hearted playfulness, McBurney's toward irony and observation--the two became fast friends. Soon they became close to another recruit as well, soft-spoken Preston McNeil.

When I picked this up I was a little worried the author would focus on the discrimination against blacks during WWII. While this fact is recognized and discussed in the book, my worries were quickly put to rest as the author focuses more on the heroics and accomplishments of this unit in war. These brave men fought hard for our country and were often unappreciated. As a unit they accomplished far more than was expected of them and far more than they were given credit for (until much later). Many of these brave men were killed in action fighting for our freedom and should never be forgotten. The only reason I gave it 4 rather than 5 stars is because there are a few spots in the book where the author could have gotten into more detail. However, that being said this is a very good book and I recommend it for any reader of WWII literature.
Brothers in Arms presented a compelling story about men in combat. The book was well written & researched & presentation was enthralling. THese men had it tough in trainging but even tougher in combat. Story demonstrates heroism has no color barrier. THe soldiers were brave 'brothers' fighting a common foe-the Nazis. Presents a compelling reason for integration of blacks in military, better late than never.
I'm going to purchase this book. My father was a member of the 761st Tank Battlion and I'm very proud of my father's military service. It takes a hell of a man to indure the horrors of war and my father did it!!!!
Once again unwritten history is addressed by persons of color. Unfortunatly the racism of this country prevails to overlook the contributions of blacks during a World War aimed at granting freedom to all, except to the race of Blacks living in the United States

Cold Pans
Use a Cold Pan to Keep Vegetables, Fruits, and Dressings Chilled for Hours
A cold pan is an ideal product for your salad bar, sandwich prep table, buffet, ice cream parlor, condiment table, or self-serve station. Simply place these pans in your freezer overnight, and they will stay cold for multiple hours the next day. Fill each drop-in cold pan with vegetables, salad dressings, fruits, lunch meats, cheeses, yogurts, puddings, or other food items that need to remain chilled until service. Read more
By using a cold pan, you'll eliminate the need for ice, which eventually melts and leads to messy cleanup. Plus, these items are stackable for space-efficient storage when being frozen, stored, or transported. Additionally, since a drop-in cold pan sits down in your countertop or prep table surface, it won't take up any additional vertical space.

She's taken home gold from the last two winter Olympics and last month clinched the women's bobsleigh World Cup title, a promising mid-cycle win in her lead-up to the 2018 Winter Olympics in PyeongChang, South Korea. "I'm happy that it's done, that I can take some time off," says Kaillie Humphries. "I don't want to […]
There was a huge sigh of relief on Friday afternoon for four-time Olympic medallist speedskater Denny Morrison when the Crown dropped a charge against him of failing to yield to a yellow light at an intersection. Morrison was charged with the Traffic Safety Act offence more than two weeks after a May 7 crash between his motorcycle […]
Four-time Olympic speedskating medallist Denny Morrison suffered a femur fracture and other non-life-threatening injuries on Thursday night after a motorcycle crash. Morrison, 29, of Fort St. John, B.C., suffered a clean fracture through the middle of his femur and underwent surgery Friday for the placement of a metal rod to stabilize the bone. He will be out […]
Jeremy Wotherspoon did it, once upon a time. Denny Morrison did it, too.
Trying to explain the concept of ice was difficult enough. So imagine what it was like for Denny Morrison to communicate the idea of skating in one direction on a 400-metre oval track, competing for world domination, to a handful of African children in Ghana who could barely understand English.
Crowdfunding in athletics has been all the rage since last summer when Canadian Olympic athletes began using websites such as Pursu.it to reach their goals.
In the hours leading up to Friday's Olympic celebration parade in downtown Calgary, Gilmore Junio wants the world to know he did not endure water torture at the Sochi Games.
Talk about a final frontier!The Calgary Stampede Parade become one Tuesday, when they announced that the Grand Marshal of the 2014 Stampede Parade will be none other than William Shatner, a.k.a. Star Trek's original Captain Kirk.
Not winning an Olympic medal was the best thing to happen to Gilmore Junio. That certainly wasn't what the Calgary speedskater had envisioned, though, when he hopped on a plane this past February for the Sochi 2014 Winter Olympics. It also wasn't in his sights when he gave up his spot in the men's 1,000 metre long-track event to his friend and fellow athlete Denny Morrison, who would go on to capture silver in that race, later adding a bronze in the men's 1,500 metres.
The horses are ready for their close-up, Mr. DeMille. That was aging movie star Norma Desmond's legendary line in Sunset Boulevard, but it could just as easily be applied to the 70 gorgeous stars of Odysseo — 11 breeds of horses that wowed a sellout crowd of 2,000 gathered in the White Big Top at Canada Olympic Park on Wednesday's electric opening night.
It's also sexy shorts night at the gay night club.
INZELL, Germany — Canadian Olympic star Denny Morrison won his 38th individual World Cup medal Sunday, placing second in the men's 1,500 metres.
It was an Olympic heroes welcome for the unlikeliest of heroes at Calgary International Airport Tuesday.
"It sucks to be so close to the podium." Brady Leman is no stranger to disappointment. In 2010, the then-23-year-old crashed in a practice run before his Vancouver Olympics debut, breaking his right leg for the third — yes, the third — time in his competitive career.
For a brief moment, time stood still Saturday night amid the suffocating tension at Calgary's Olympic Oval. At age 37, coming out of retirement for one more shot at Olympic glory, Jeremy Wotherspoon turned in a vintage performance in the first of two 500-metre races at the Intact Insurance 2014 Speed Skating Team Selections.
CALGARY - The important changes already made, speedskater Christine Nesbitt feels ready to race her best this season.
When chasing down bad guys, Batman never worries if he has enough money to gas up the Batmobile.
SOCHI, Russia — Defending 1,500-metre world champion Denny Morrison has been cleared to return to compete this weekend at the 2013 world single-distance speedskating championships.
He's a blur on skates on an oval, but not so adept, it seems, at negotiating a little downhill trail on cross-country skis.

Domain Name Wire is reporting that the the winning bid in the auction for .WEB was $135,000,000.
Assuming they're right (which they probably are,) that brings the total web auction piggy bank to over $230 million, more than twice what it was two days ago.
At the Helsinki meeting there was already a lot of interest in the process to decide how the money is distributed, but now there'll be twice as much.
23 Jul 2016
This week ICANN will auction off .WEB or .WEBS. There are seven live applications for .WEB and one for .WEBS.
The string contention process decided that the two names are so similar that they'll only assign one of them, so all eight applications are in one auction. (The same string contention process decided that .ACCOUNTANT and .ACCOUNTANTS are both allowed, as are .AUTO and .AUTOS and .BM and .BMS and .COUPON and .COUPONS and .FAN and .FANS and .GIFT and .GIFTS and .LOAN and .LOANS and .ML and .MLS and .NEW and .NEWS and .REVIEW and .REVIEWS and .SA and .SAS and .SB and .SBS and .TV and .TVS and .WATCH and .WATCHES and .WORK and .WORKS, but I guess the Web is special.)
There are some deep pocketed bidders in this round including Google, Donuts, web.com which owns Network Solutions and a lot of other web properties, and Schlund which owns the largest web hoster 1&1. Google paid $25 million for .APP and GMO paid $41 million for .SHOP. It's hard to see how .WEB would be worth less than either of those unless bidder fatigue sets in.
So stay tuned and we'll shortly know how much more will be added to the $104 million already in the Giant Pile of Auction Money.

A guy I know passed along this e-mail sent to one of his customers. They assumed it was a phish, since they didn't recognize the domain name in the link, but couldn't figure out what the goal of the phish was.
They even checked the list of ICANN registrars, and nope, registrar.eu wasn't on the list.
Nonetheless, this mail was real, and if the recipient had ignored it, his domain would have been suspended. What's going on?
Dear domain name owner, *Your action is required to prevent domain suspension*
This verification e-mail is triggered because your e-mail address is used in the owner contact of a domain registration and this e-mail address was not verified before or we have received information that this e-mail address might not be in use anymore.
As we did not receive affirmative response on our last e-mail, we send you a final reminder. Please note that your domain name(s) may be suspended if the e-mail address is not confirmed. The domain name registration policy of ICANN requires that a valid and working e-mail address is provided with each domain registration.

The US government is demanding Apple unlock iPhones in about a dozen cases beside the San Bernardino one. In a strikingly similar case, Judge James Orenstein in Brooklyn rejected the government's request for three separate reasons. In the decision the judge refers several times to the San Bernardino case, and it is clear he expects this decision to be an important precedent for that one.In June 2014 the government arrested Jun Feng in Queens NY on drug charges and confiscated his iPhone 5S. Over a year later, in July 2015 got a warrant to search the phone and found that it was locked. In October they filed a proposed order under the 1789 All Writs Act (AWA) to have Apple unlock the phone. It appears that Apple initially cooperated and suggested some of the language in the proposed order, but if so they changed their minds and opposed it.

Marshall Mathers II gets artwork
Interesting the see the changes in the house since the original. Other than that, he's almost just copying himself. As much as I want to like this album when it releases, I feel that this is just another artist trying to cash in on prior success.
This is going to be the best thing about the album, because when you listen to what's inside it won't be pleasant.
Actually really dig the over
album's gonna be shit tho
Very interesting, was definitely not expecting it to be this reminiscent of the first one
Same angle and everything, very neat
If Berserk is anything to go by though this will make the album look a lot darker than it actually will be
pos. definitely pos.
i thought berserk was awesome
i think berserk is the perfect "anti-Not Afraid" for him to lead with.
bando bando
Pos album cover, neg album.
This is gonna fuckin suck
I still have hope, a small shred of hope.
haha clutching straws leb. I feel ya
"I hope Berserk is just the extravagant single that was demanded by the label and the rest of the album is a little more focused."
god i am so skeptical about this album, but at least he seems like he's trying to get back to a time before he totally lost his way. the past few albums it seems like he was just unaware of how bad he'd become. but, keep in mind that this is the same guy that (except for the shitty-ass accent) made an album full of straight up gore on relapse just 4 years ago so perhaps his days of raping his mom and blastin puppies aren't totally behind him.
hey there, sublimefan1991
Defeater was kind to donate this album cover to him
Haters gonna hate, Berzerk is pretty much the "The Real Slim Shady" of 2013, I guess you were all expecting a "Not Afraid"-esque song as the first single, and probably only first heard of him in 2009/10. Relapse and Recovery aren't as terrible as some people think either.
Definitely Album of the Year, he'll prove all you fuckers wrong, before you start editing your posts and claiming that you thought it was gonna be great all along.
^Kill yourself.
Aww, mad that someone on the internet has a different opinion from yours?
haha, I love internet trash talkers.
No thank you though, I'm sure that your eagerness for a stranger to end their own life stems from some kind of personal problem that you have, so I suggest you see a doctor to re-evaluate your life.
Is berzerk the song from that Call of Duty video? That one was alright but nothing to really get excited over
This guy really is an OnlinePredator
"via FACT" that has to be the gayest thing i've ever heard.
Looks like we've got a master sociologist on our hands. Praise The Lord.
"via FACT" that has to be the gayest thing i've ever heard.
Hoping there are songs like "Kim" and "Stan" on this. I need something that really hits me and makes my stomach turn. Sadly im not too optimistic about it.
Cover looks cool. Don't have high hopes for the actual album though.
This is like the hangover II all over again
"I guess you were all expecting a "Not Afraid"-esque song as the first single, and probably only first heard of him in 2009/10"
If you are serious then you need to shut the fuck up. Most people on this site were alive back when SS and MM lp came out and obviously became fans back then. We're all tired of being let down by shit album after shit album. How the fuck can people even justify his new albums to his old albums?
we'll see how the album turns out
best thong about the album right there
Digging: Riverside - Second Life Syndrome
putting a nice cover on a piece of shit
it's still a piece of shit
Actually really dig the over
album's gonna be shit tho [2]
Digging: Crystal Castles - Amnesty (I)
ugh i wish this was gonna be good
Berserk is a train wreck :|
My tea's gone cold I'm wondering whyyyy
Guess it's time to check out Marshall
Digging: Coldworld - Autumn
great cover. Too bad it will prolly end up being the best thing about the album.
"if it's got this name he wouldn't make it a bad album"
Digging: Giles Corey - Giles Corey
Operation: Mindcrime 2
still one of the best things he's ever done
well jay z practically did the same thing, turning his masterpiece the blueprint into the mediocre blueprint 2 (gift and the curse). maybe em will go the marshall mathers lp 3?
Damn that cover is pretty dark looking
I'm not afraid to take a stand against albums that suck.
If this album isn't decent, I'm bound to go Berzerk.
album is gonna be "dark"
Darker than Detroit.
a true statement + racial undertones = someguest
I'm hoping Berzerk was just a smoke screen and shit will be crazy but I doubt it.
Digging: MSTRKRFT - Operator
If Berzerk is supposed to be a highlight track on the album, then it's going to suck even worse than Relapse. I'm pretty sure he's about done with music, I think he's creative juices have slowed flowing.
Em bashing on the internet? Never get's old, I tell ya.
Go to youtube an you'll find plenty of people bending over for him
Remember when me and someguest raved about how cool Recovery was
I think he's creative juices have slowed flowing.
maybe some people shouldn't even post about how the album's gonna suck and whatnot.. let's just hope we get to listen some 'Kill You' and 'Kim'.
im hoping that this might actually be good, but its not likely
Digging: ScHoolboy Q - Blank Face LP
I like his stuff, new and old, and I'm gonna give this a fair chance too. I like the new album cover too. He did better on Recovery and Bad Meets Evil II so I think he will do well on this album too since he's trying to go back to the older stuff that made him successful in the first place.
who is enivevi?
can you guys imagine if this is just as good as the first?
that will never happen.
if it does, i'll smash my testicles in half with a bladed hammer
going to hold you to that
Haters gonna hate, Berzerk is pretty much the "The Real Slim Shady" of 2013, I guess you were all expecting a "Not Afraid"-esque song as the first single, and probably only first heard of him in 2009/10. Relapse and Recovery aren't as terrible as some people think either.
Definitely Album of the Year, he'll prove all you fuckers wrong, before you start editing your posts and claiming that you thought it was gonna be great all along.
are you implying "Not Afraid" is better than "The Real Slim Shady"?
Do some reading, idiot.
pretty sure he just copypasted some retard on youtube
Or one in this very thread huehue
Nope, right above in this comment section.
same difference
common denominator = retard
lol "onlinepredator"

almost as good as the original
This was good. Very similiar to Outbacks.
A little rich. Very filling and /very/ tasty though.
Excellent! Just like Outback! I used turkey bacon, fresh sauteed mushrooms, and a homemade honey mustard. It was delicious!!!! The honey mustard I made was 3/4 c mayo, 1/3 cup dijon mustard, 1/4 cup honey, 1/4 cup agave syrup, and a healthy pinch of pepper. I let the sauce sit in the fridge for a couple hours before dinner. To servce I spooned 3 tbsp of dressing on the plate, then the chicken, then the musrooms, bacon, and 1 oz of finely shredded colby jack cheese blend. I put it all in the oven at 350 for 5 minutes to warm the sauce and melt the cheese. So so great.
I tried this out on my family and all I can say is WOW! Not a bite leftover. I did a few modifications as suggested. I made the honey mustard sauce with 1/2 cup dijon mustard, 1/2 cup honey, 2 TBsp mayo, 1 tsp. minced garlic. I cut down the amount of cheese and I used pepper jack cheese with some cheddar. Served it with garlic mashed potatoes. Absolutely Delicious!!
Really good! My only problem is that I always get it without the honey mustard and get that great spicy ranch to put on it! I'll have to find that recipe now too! :-)
Excellent recipe! Have made this a few times now I think we enjoy more and more each time. Have made exactly as written and also have added sauteed shallots (with the mushrooms). The shallots add a really nice touch. Thanks for posting a great recipe as it's now one in our regular rotation.
This is a very close adaptation of the Outback's recipie. This is really good if you are in a hurry. There is a version posted under the same name at allrecipies.com that is a little more involved, but tastes exactly like the original. I am going to keep both on file , and thanks for the shortcut version!
Great. Just like outback.
Made this for dinner last night, it was AMAZING!!! Thank you for this recipe.

NEW YORK—D. J. Rama, president of JHM Hotels, was honored here last night at the Affinia Manhattan Hotel by Cornell University's School of Hotel Administration with its 2013 Masters of Management in Hospitality Outstanding Alumnus award.
The 12th annual event, held in conjunction with the International Hotel/Motel & Restaurant Show currently under way at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center, was presented by Dennis Nessler, editor-at-large for HOTEL BUSINESS, title sponsor of the evening's reception, together with the school's dean, Michael Johnson.
"Every graduate of the School of Hotel Administration learns to lead the industry with knowledge, impact, ethics and self-awareness. Tonight's honoree demonstrates each of these core principals every single day through his leadership of JHM Hotels, his service to the industry and his continued dedication to the school," said Johnson, noting Rama completed the MMH program in 1996 and remains involved with the school via the Leland C. and Mary M. Pillsbury Institute for Hospitality Entrepreneurship and as president of the Cornell Hotel Society of South Carolina.
Rama, whose family entered the hospitality industry in the 1970s, said the "award represents the realization of the American dream and the ability to reach higher levels through aspiration and education….At Cornell, my aim was to learn and absorb as much as I could, like a sponge, because I aspired to take our company, JHM Hotels, to the highest level."
JHM Hotels currently has 42 hotels in its portfolio representing some 7,000 rooms with product from Marriott International, Hilton Worldwide, Hyatt and Starwood Hotels and Resorts Worldwide, Inc.

Well, it's halfway through 2016, and not much has changed since the beginning of the year. Despite the terrorism acts in Orlando, FL and Turkey, and the Brexit referendum, little has happened to affect the travel industry. Overall, things might have slowed a bit, but a majority of the fundamentals are holding steady, including occupancy, ADR and RevPAR. I've been asked why this cycle has lasted longer than those preceding it. As far as I am concerned, it's due to a single phrase: Never Again.

Emergent Treatment of Schizophrenia
- Author: Paul S Gerstein, MD; Chief Editor: Gil Z Shlamovitz, MD, FACEP more...
Schizophrenia is a chronic psychotic disorder, either persistent or episodic, whose hallmark features may include delusions, hallucinations, disturbed thinking processes, flattening of affect, and abnormal behaviors. Affecting approximately 1% of the members of all cultural groups globally, schizophrenia is a catastrophically disabling illness with heavy social and economic costs on its sufferers and society.
During 2009-2011, an estimated 382,000 emergency department (ED) visits related to schizophrenia occurred each year among adults aged 18-64, with an overall ED visit rate of 20.1 per 10,000 adults.[1]
It is essential in the emergency department (ED) not to confuse the thought and behavioral disturbances of organically based acute delirium with any of the psychotic disorders. The avoidance of this confusion is the primary reason for "medical clearance" examinations and drugs-of-abuse screening.
Because of the variability of symptom expression, diagnostic requirements of chronicity, and lack of pathognomonic features, an ED diagnosis of schizophrenia should be provisional at best. As a diagnosis-by-exclusion, schizophrenia must be distinguished from the numerous psychiatric and organic disorders that also can lead to psychotic disturbances in thinking and behavior.
Psychosis and schizophrenia are not equivalent, although they are commonly mistaken as such. Psychosis is a disorder of thinking and perception in which information processing and reality testing are impaired, resulting in an inability to distinguish fantasy from reality (delusions and hallucinations). Schizophrenia is one of several psychiatric disorders for which psychosis is a major feature. Other psychiatric disorders that can be mistaken for schizophrenia include the following:
Bipolar disorder in a manic phase
Delusional disorders
Brief psychotic disorder
Schizophreniform illness, schizoid and schizotypal personality disorder
Borderline personality disorder
Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
Transient, drug-induced psychosis; alcoholic hallucinosis; and drug or alcohol withdrawal syndromes
Major depression with psychotic features
The most common etiologies for severe mental status changes in the ED are organic, not psychiatric. They include medications, drug intoxication, drug withdrawal syndromes, and general medical illnesses causing delirium.
Take a careful medication history; many commonly prescribed medicines can occasionally cause psychotic reactions.
Medical clearance examinations are medicolegally risky. These evaluations are typically brief and rarely sufficient to rule out organic etiologies.
Go to Schizoaffective Disorder, Childhood-Onset Schizophrenia, and Schizophreniform Disorder for complete information on these topics.
Patient History
The onset of schizophrenia is insidious in approximately one half of all patients. The prodromal phase can begin years before the full-blown syndrome and is characterized by losses of functioning in home, society, and occupation (eg, poor school or work performance, deterioration of hygiene and appearance, decreasing emotional connections with others, behaviors that would have been odd for the individual in the past).
A gradual onset indicates a more severe and prolonged course of illness.
An abrupt onset of hallucinations and delusional, bizarre, or disorganized thinking in patients who previously functioned normally may result in a better intermediate and long-term outcome. Such patients arriving in a psychotic crisis that requires immediate management may not have been diagnosed with psychiatric illness previously. They often present diagnostic dilemmas involving organic versus psychiatric etiology and primary psychotic versus affective disorder diagnosis. Treatment may be complicated further by the presence of alcohol or drug intoxication.
Often, the history obtained in the ED relates to a complication of treatment (medication adverse effects) or a crisis arising from socioeconomic factors secondary to schizophrenia (eg, poverty, homelessness, social isolation, failure of support systems).
While the primary diagnosis of schizophrenia rarely is made de novo in the ED, several historical features can be helpful in distinguishing the illness from the many medical and psychiatric conditions that can mimic it.
Two or more of the following must have been present over the prior month for a significant period (unless treated with medication):[2]
Delusions - Bizarre or illogical false beliefs, which often have a paranoid, grandiose, persecutory, or religious flavor; false interpretation of normal perceptions
Hallucinations - Typically auditory (visual or tactile strongly suggest an organic etiology), often involving malevolent or taunting voices commenting on the patient's actions or character, often with a sexual flavor; voices giving commands (ie, command hallucinations); 2 or more voices discussing or arguing with each other; audible thoughts; thought withdrawal (feeling that thoughts are being removed from head), thought broadcasting, or thought interference by an outside agent
Disorganized speech - Tangential, incoherent, rambling speech; neologisms (new word creation); loosening of associations
Behavior - Grossly disorganized or catatonic
Negative symptoms - Poverty of speech (ie, alogia), emotional and/or social withdrawal, blunting of affect, avolition
Loss of a previously held level of occupational, social, or self-care functioning must have occurred since the onset of illness.
Presence of an affective disorder (eg, major depression, bipolar disorder, schizoaffective disorder) must be excluded; these conditions can be mistaken for schizophrenia and have very different prognoses and therapies. Additionally, an organic etiology (eg, drug intoxication, medical illness) must be ruled out.
One of the following problems with antipsychotic medications commonly is the chief complaint:
Acute dystonia (muscle rigidity and spasm), oculogyric crisis (bizarre and frightening upward gaze paralysis and contortion of facial and neck musculature), akathisia (dysphoric sense of motor restlessness)
Parkinsonian symptoms of stiffness, resting tremor, difficulty with gait, and feeling slowed-down
Orthostatic hypotension caused by alpha-adrenergic blockade
Dry mouth, fatigue, sedation, visual disturbance, inhibited urination, and sexual dysfunction, which can be adverse reactions to antipsychotic medication or to anticholinergic drugs taken for prophylaxis of dystonia
Obtain the following information when an acutely psychotic patient presents to the ED:
The potential danger the patient presents to himself or herself or to others
Prior medical and psychiatric records, including past hospitalizations and medication therapy
His or her baseline level of functioning
Current or recent substance abuse
Current use of prescribed, over-the-counter (OTC), and herbal medications
Compliance with current psychiatric medications
A paranoid schizophrenic, in response to delusions and command hallucinations, can be extremely dangerous and unpredictable.
Find out about threats made to others, expressions of suicidal intent, and possession of weapons at home or on the person.
Physical Examination
Depending on the reason for ED presentation, the patient with schizophrenia may present with wildly agitated, combative, withdrawn, or severely catatonic behavior. Conversely, the patient may appear rational, cooperative, and well controlled (perhaps with only some blunting of affect). The person also could be subtly odd, unkempt, or frankly bizarre in manner, dress, and/or affect.
Perform a general physical examination on all patients, with attention to vital signs, pupillary findings, hydration status, and mental status.
A comprehensive physical examination and laboratory evaluation is required when an organic etiology or drug intoxication may be related to mental status changes.
Pay particular attention to fever, tachycardia (which, in association with rigidity, can be a sign of neuroleptic malignant syndrome), heatstroke (antipsychotics inhibit sweating), and other medical illness.
Look for signs of dystonia, akathisia, tremor, and muscle rigidity.
Tardive dyskinesia is a common and often irreversible sequela of long-term (and sometimes brief) antipsychotic use. It involves uncontrollable tongue thrusting, lip smacking, and facial grimacing.
Mental status testing should typically reveal clear sensorium and orientation to person, place, and time. Assess attention, language, memory, constructions, and executive functions. Absence of clear sensorium and/or orientation may indicate the presence of acute delirium, a medical condition.
Differential Diagnosis
Conditions to consider in the differential diagnosis of schizophrenia include the following:
Delirium, dementia, and amnesia
Neuroleptic malignant syndrome
Personality disorders
Acetaminophen toxicity
Hallucinogen toxicity
Hallucinogenic mushroom toxicity
Neuroleptic agent toxicity
Phencyclidine toxicity
Sympathomimetic toxicity
Laboratory Studies
No specific laboratory findings are diagnostic of schizophrenia. However, performing some studies may be necessary to rule out possible organic etiologies for psychosis or to uncover complications of schizophrenia and its treatment.
Blood levels of certain psychiatric drugs, specifically lithium and the mood-stabilizing antiseizure medications (eg, valproic acid, carbamazepine), can be used to confirm compliance or rule out toxicity.
Serum alcohol levels and drugs-of-abuse screening can be useful when substance abuse is suspected.
Interpreting the results of a fingerstick blood glucose determination is a rapid and inexpensive method of ruling out a diabetic emergency masquerading as an exacerbation of a psychotic illness; similarly, measuring oxygen saturation levels can help to disclose hypoxia resulting in behavioral or central nervous system (CNS) disturbance.
Electrolyte measurements may reveal hyponatremia secondary to water intoxication (ie, psychogenic polydipsia). This is common in undertreated or refractory schizophrenia.
Laboratory abnormalities observed in neuroleptic malignant syndrome may include leukocytosis with left shift and elevated skeletal muscle creatinine kinase (CK) and aldolase levels.
Other Studies
Computed tomography (CT) scanning, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and positron emission tomography (PET) scanning can disclose abnormalities of brain structure and function in schizophrenia. Although these studies are of interest for research, they have limited clinical relevance. Various psychological and neurobiologic tests, such as absence of smooth eye-tracking, may be helpful in studying schizophrenia but are not useful in the ED setting.
Prehospital Care
Safe transport of a patient with acute psychosis may require physical or chemical restraints.
Be familiar with restraint and sedation protocols in your emergency medical service (EMS) area and hospital.
Know your state's regulations or statutes regarding involuntary transport, treatment, and hospitalization of psychiatric patients.
Document your concerns regarding imminent risk to the patient or others resulting from the patient's psychiatric condition.
File appropriate application for involuntary transport/treatment when indicated.
Emergency Department Care
Evolving from the efficacy of modern antipsychotic medications and the subsequent widespread budget cutting of psychiatric services over the past 2 decades, deinstitutionalization of patients with schizophrenia has had a major impact on emergency medicine. Patients with schizophrenia now are frequent visitors to the ED, presenting with problems ranging from symptom exacerbation to medication noncompliance, adverse effects to medications, and socioeconomic crisis arising from substance abuse, poverty, homelessness, or a failed support system.
Depending on the reason for the patient's ED visit, care may be limited to diagnosis and treatment of an urgent or nonurgent medical complaint; a brief medical evaluation followed by consultation with psychiatric, crisis, or social service personnel; evaluation and treatment of an adverse reaction to a psychiatric drug; or physical and chemical restraint of a patient with acute psychosis in coordination with a workup, when indicated, to rule out organic etiologies.
Remember that psychiatric and organic illness can coexist and interact at the same time in the same patient. Furthermore, acute psychiatric symptoms and difficulties obtaining a reliable history from the patient can mask serious organic illness.
A brief medical clearance examination is limited in usefulness and insufficient to rule out organic etiologies.
Use of restraints and involuntary commitment
Failure to talk down or intimidate (with a show of force) a severely agitated patient may require physical restraint of the patient, followed by chemical restraint (ie, sedation).
Proper physical restraints and individuals trained in their application should be available at all times.[3] Document reasons for restraining a patient (mention patient/staff safety and protection), the type of restraint used (eg, locked room vs 4-point leather), the maximum duration of restraint, and reasons for involuntary commitment[4] ; follow all Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (COBRA) regulations when transferring patients to another facility for psychiatric care.
Be familiar with ED and hospital regulations, Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) rules, regional statutes, and Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act (EMTALA) requirements regarding the use of physical restraints, involuntary psychiatric commitment, and transfer.
Do not order "restrain prn." Give specific reasons for applying and removing restraints. Personally ensure that restraints are applied safely. Use the least restrictive measures that are effective. The patient should be monitored continuously while restrained either physically or chemically.[3] Restraint and seclusion orders should be renewed at regular intervals not to exceed 4 hours.
In most cases, chemical restraint (ie, sedation) is preferable to physical restraint when prolonged behavioral control is necessary or when the patient is severely combative. Any physical restraint of a combative patient can lead to serious injury or death (eg, from aspiration, sudden cardiac death, rhabdomyolysis).[3]
Rapid tranquilization (chemical restraint) may be carried out as follows here.
Typically, a combination of lorazepam 2 mg mixed in the same syringe with haloperidol 5 or 10 mg is administered intramuscularly or intravenously. Benztropine (Cogentin), 1 mg, may be added to counteract dystonia ("5-2-1"). Elderly patients typically require lower doses. Repeat doses can be administered in 20-30 minutes as needed to control continued severe agitation. Haloperidol dose can be doubled each time up to 20 mg if prior dosing is inadequate for severe agitation.
An alternative to the haloperidol component is droperidol at the same dosages. Droperidol is more sedating, faster in onset, and somewhat shorter acting. The downside is the black-box warning about prolonged QT syndrome, which rarely occurs at higher doses than those typically utilized for acute behavioral control. Cardiac monitoring is recommended, but some experts believe these warnings to be overly cautious.[5] Following the black-box warning, most physicians continuing to utilize droperidol for acute behavioral control reserve it for special situations requiring somewhat faster onset and greater sedation than would be achieved with similar doses of haloperidol. Droperidol, therefore, may be considered useful, yet second-line to haloperidol in the emergency department.
In certain cases, sedation can be administered orally and may consist of lorazepam 2 mg plus haloperidol 2-5 mg or risperidone 2 mg PO (by mouth). An alternative is olanzapine (Zyprexa Zydis), which is an oral, rapidly disintegrating tablet, 5-10 mg.
If the patient has haloperidol or droperidol sensitivity, ziprasidone 10-20 mg (administered intramuscularly) can be substituted (20 mg is the typical dose). Exercise caution regarding prolonged QT syndrome and multiple drug-drug interactions. Ziprasidone may be somewhat slower in onset than haloperidol and droperidol but has excellent sedating qualities with less propensity for dystonia. A single repeat dose of 20 mg in 4 hours may be necessary (maximum 40 mg/d IM). A 10 mg dosing can be repeated in 2 hours. Reduced pricing now makes ziprasidone an excellent first-line alternative to the older, conventional antipsychotics, especially in younger patients who are more likely to develop dystonic reactions.
Lorazepam alone is sometimes sufficient for lesser degrees of agitation or anxiety and can be given sublingually for more rapid onset. The recommended dose for anxiety and mild agitation is 1-2 mg administered orally or sublingually.
When available, consult with a psychiatrist (ideally, who can immediately and personally evaluate the patient in the ED) when assistance is needed with proper diagnosis and/or management of acute symptoms or severe behavioral disturbances.
Crisis liaison teams, typically made up of clinical social workers, psychologists, and/or psychiatric nurses, are available in many EDs 24 hours a day through the hospital or local psychiatric agencies. Their primary role is assessment for appropriateness of psychiatric hospitalization and to determine availability of inpatient beds in compliance with the patient's insurance coverage. Such clinicians can also assist in arranging prompt outpatient follow-up when hospitalization is not necessary.
Emergency clinicians always should examine each patient personally, assessing their suicide risk or threat to others and documenting all reasoning. A medical clearance evaluation must be performed in order to rule out organic illness that may be causing psychiatric symptoms or will preclude admission to a psychiatric bed.
The emergency clinician should speak directly with the crisis consultant and read his or her evaluation notes. Then, based on the evaluation and the information has been obtained, the crisis consultant's disposition proposals should be confirmed or modified. The final decision as to patient disposition should always be confirmed by the emergency physician. Such decision-making should never be abrogated to or overruled by a crisis liaison worker. Ultimately, the emergency clinician is medically and legally responsible for the patient and his or her disposition until a psychiatrist or other provider assumes the primary responsibility for care.
Do not delay necessary sedation of a patient with acute psychosis for the diagnostic benefit of psychiatric crisis consultants not yet present in the ED. Treatment delays can lead to injuries and can increase morbidity and worsen prognosis. In these situations, the crisis consultant must rely on the presedation assessment.
Psychiatric transfers from the ED to other hospitals are common because of bed shortages and insurance considerations. These transfers should be treated as medical transfers by documenting the patient's stability, the reason for transfer, and other factors required to meet COBRA obligations.
Sedating patients with severe agitation and/or acute psychosis is essential to prevent potential injury to the patient and staff en route.
Antipsychotic medications (previously referred to as neuroleptics or major tranquilizers) have revolutionized the treatment of and prognosis for schizophrenia. All block dopamine (especially D2) receptors in the brain.
The newer, atypical agents also affect serotonin transmission. These newer agents (eg, risperidone, clozapine, olanzapine, quetiapine, ziprasidone, aripiprazole) are less likely to produce dystonia and tardive dyskinesia and are more likely to improve negative symptoms. However, they are not more effective than traditional agents (eg, haloperidol, droperidol, fluphenazine), with the possible exception of clozapine in the treatment-resistant patient. Some newer agents cause serious weight gain and may raise the risk of insulin resistance and diabetes mellitus. Studies show a slightly increased death rate in elderly patients with dementia using atypical agents. However, the risk was even higher with the older, conventional agents.
A retrospective analysis found that in relapsed schizophrenia patients, atypical long-acting injectable antipsychotics (LATs) were associated with lower rehospitalization and ER visit rates than oral APs.[6]
Benzodiazepines also have a role in schizophrenia, especially in the emergency care of a patient with acute psychosis.
Anticholinergic medications (ie, benztropine, diphenhydramine) are used to counteract the dystonic and parkinsonian adverse effects (extrapyramidal symptoms [EPS]) of the antipsychotics, particularly the higher-potency agents that are less sedating but more EPS-producing.
