In many ways the first 20 seconds of your cold call in the food industry begins days before you dial the number. You must research the company you are contacting, at least in a cursory way. You should understand its product or menu offering, find out the name of its manager, if possible, and develop a plan to match an item you offer to a need within the targeted business. This preparation will turn the call from cold to warm.
Begin your call with a quick introduction, clearly stating the name of your company and perhaps your name. Thank your potential customer for allowing you to have a small amount of his time. In the food business, especially in a fast-paced restaurant, you must be sincere, since many of the managers of these firms work long hours with minimal breaks. Establish a quick action plan for the call with the customer by stating that you are hoping to help them with a specific need, such as finding a new food vendor for a certain component of his menu.

It costs just a dollar. What a deal! Even Wal-Mart, the Goliath of retailing, has added a $1 bargain shopping area in its stores, and you can't walk into a Target without passing the $1 specials right at the front door. Even families with incomes that allow them to shop at the best stores are choosing to cruise the aisles of the local dollar store.
A lot of really great deals can be found at dollar stores, but you have to search for them. If you look, you'll discover that not all dollar stores are equal. There are some where every item is truly $1 or less, there is the 99 cents store where everything costs that amount, and there are dollar store retailers where items can be as high as $10 or more. To get the best deals at any dollar store, you should determine the items you are shopping for and plan accordingly. Make a list, scour the ads in the paper, and call to see if the store accepts coupons.
Kitchenware: One of the best dollar-store bargains where you truly get great value is kitchen items. Rubber spatulas, serving tongs, glassware and most kitchen gadgets can be purchased here for 50% to 90% less than at Wal-Mart or Target. Whether you are buying supplies for a dorm or the store will even bundle them so you can get several for $1. These stores occasionally have young adult books and novels, though the selection isn't always great.

If you look, you can also find great deals on plastic storage tubs, but you do have to look. Many times these items are cheaper when they are on sale at Wal-Mart, and you must carefully look at the quality of the plastic. Some storage tubs from the dollar store simply don't hold up to even moderate use.

Background and methods: A has a complex genetic predisposition. The ratio of males to females affected by autism is approximately 4:1, suggesting that sex specific factors are involved in its development. We reported previously the results of a genomewide screen for autism susceptibility loci in 83 affected sibling pairs (ASP), and follow up analysis in 152 ASP. Here, we report analysis of an expanded sample of 219 ASP, using sex and parent of origin linkage modelling at loci on chromosomes 2, 7, 9, 15, and 16.
Conclusion: These data support the possibility of two discrete loci underlying linkage of autism to chromosome 7, and implicate possible parent of origin specific effects in the aetiology of autism.
- ADOS, Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule
Autism (OMIM #209850) is a severe200 in 100 000 individuals, although related disorders affect a further 400 in 100 000 people.1 Onset is before 3 years of age, and the core deficits, comprising qualitative impairments, persist throughout life. There is evidence for a complex genetic susceptibility to most cases of autism, and statistical modelling suggests the involvement of perhaps three or four loci, although up to 15 may be implicated.2,3 Many groups have undertaken genomewide screens for autism susceptibility loci using affected sibling pairs (ASP), followed by a positional functional candidate gene approach (see Lamb et al4 and Folstein and Rosen-Sheidley5 for review). Encouragingly, there is convergent evidence for linkage for several chromosome regions. However, the identified genomic regions are large and, in the absence of replicated association findings, researchers have tried to minimise clinical and genetic heterogeneity to improve localisation of the linkage signals.6–9 Three quarters of individuals affected by autism are male, suggesting the involvement of sex specific factors in autism susceptibility. However, there is little evidence from genetic studies for involvement of genes on the X chromosome in the majority of individuals with autism. Linkage that is dependent on the sex of the affected individual has been reported previously in studies of other complex diseases including , and the personality trait neuroticism,10–13 therefore we reasoned that proband sex might be a useful index of heterogeneity in our sample. We havASP, and follow up analysis in 152 ASP.14,15 Here, we report linkage analysis in an expanded sample of. In addition, loci on chromosomes 3, 13, and 15 have been investigated further because of reports of linkage of autism and specific language impairment to chromosomes 3 and 13,16–18 and linkage and an increased incidence of cytogenetic abnormalities of chromosome 15q11-q13 in autism19 (see Lamb et al4 for review). Analysis by proband sex and identity by descent (IBD) sharing partitioned into paternal and maternal components was carried out at the loci on chromosomes 2q, 7q, 9p, 15q, and 16p.
The identification of families and assessment methods used by the IMGSAC has been described in detail previously.14,15 In families passing an initial screen, parents were given the Autism Diagnostic Interview Revised (ADI-R)20 and the Vineland Adaptive Behaviour Scales.21 Potential cases, all ⩾4 years old, were also assessed using e22 or ADOS Generic (ADOS-G).23 When possible, psychometric evaluation was also conducted using Raven’s progressive matrices24 or the Mullen Scales of Early Learning,25 and the British Picture Vocabulary Scale26 or the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test III27 or an appropriate translation; other tests were administered if clinically indicated.
Physical examination was undertaken to exclude recognisable medical causes of autism. Blood samples were taken for DNA extraction when possible from all probands and available first degree relatives, and lymphoblastoid cell lines generated. Buccal swabs were taken when a blood sample could not be obtained (3.2% of samples). Karyotypes were obtained on all affected individuals when possible, and Fragile X results obtained on one affected individual per family where possible. Karyotype abnormalities were excluded in at least one affected individual per family in 93% of families and in both affected individuals in 83% of families. Fragile X was excluded in at least one affected individual in 98% of families. The study has been reviewed by the relevant local ethics committees.
Genomic DNA extraction, amplification, and o standard protocols.14,15 Genetic marker positions were taken from the deCODE genetics sex averaged map,28 and additional marker positions interpolated from their physical
Prior to analysis, multi-marker haplotypes were constructed using GeneHunter (version 2.0)31 to check for excessive recombination events indicative of genotyping errors or marker mutation. Recombinant individuals were re-scored when necessary. In addition, Merlin software32 was run to identify possible genotyping errors, and flagged genotypes removed from subsequent analyses. Data was prepared for statistical analysis using Mega2.33

Loci typed in the whole sample of 219 ASP are indicated by triangles on the x axis. The results of analysis after stage 4 (152 ASP) are shown for comparison (black line). The results presented here differ slightly from those reported previously for stage 415 due to refinement of the genetic map, and differences in the method of error detection.

The positions of markers are represented by diamonds on the x axis with the effective sample size (ESS) indicated by: blue, ESS<50; red, ESS 50–100; green, ESS>100. The black line below the chromosome 15 figure indicates the region 15q11-q13.n). On chromosome 9p, IBD sharing appeared to be largely maternally derived; maternal MLS = 1.99 at ∼30 cM (paternal MLS = 0.02).
In order to assess, data TwoLoc.36 Analysis in Twoloc using all chromosome 7 markers and sex averaged recombination rates generated a peak MLS of 3.34 under the two locus general model at the intercept between marker D7S477 (locus 1, 111 cM) and the interval D7S530-D7S640 (locus 2, 134 cM) (fig 3). The MLS generated under the single locus model were 1.94 at D7S477 and 2.51 in the interval D7S530-D7S640 (133 cM). Linkage support for the presence of a secondary locus at 111cM, independent of the locus at 134 cM, can be calculated as the difference (0.83) between a two locus and a single locus MLS.36 The data were also analysed using sex specific recombination fractions obtained from the deCODE genetic map28 for more accurate resolution. This analysis was restricted to a subset of eight markers at the peak and resulted in an MLS of 3.31 under the two locus general model, and MLS of 2.13 and 2.31 at locus 1 and locus 2 respectively under the single locus model.
Increase in the MLS for a two locus model, assuming a primary susceptibility locus at 134 cM, versus the single locus MLS results. Results were obtained across all markers on chromosome 7 using TwoLoc with sex averaged recombination rates from the deCODE sex averaged map in the total sample of 219 ASP. Thin line, single locus MLS; thick line, two locus MLS.
The addition of further ASP and analysis of existing data continues to support the existence of loci influencing autism susceptibility in the IMGSAC sample, with the loci on chromosomes 2 and 7 showing suggestive evidence for linkage.38 Nevertheless, the addition of further families has reduced the multipoint MLS on chromosomes 2, 10, 16, and 17 compared with previously reported results.15 The MLS on chromosome 9 has increased, and the maximum multipoint MLS on chromosome 7 is essentially unchanged, although the peak of linkage has moved ∼23 cM distally. Previous studies have demonstrated a large degree of variation in linkage location estimates in studies of complex disease with modest power.39
The high ratio of males with autism indicates the possible involvement of sex specific factors in the development of the disorder, and a possible basis for genetic heterogeneity. A number of hypotheses have been posited to account for the higher incidence of autism in males, including X linked inheritance. However, this is not consistently supported by genetic linkage studies,3,14,40,41 and evidence suggests a higher incidence of the broader autistic phenotype in fathers than in mothers.42X chromosome in the majority of cases. Analysis according to the sex of ASP suggests that linkage to chromosome 16 is limited to male affected sibling pairs in the IMGSAC sample, a finding supported by empirical significance thresholds determined by simulation. The same trend is observed on chromosome 7, but narrowly fails to reach significance. Linkage to chromosome 15q in this sample is limited to the non-male ASP. A relatively high, in particular maternally inherited duplications of 15q11-q13, the most commonly documented chromosomal abnormalities leading to an autistic phenotype,43,44 suggest a possible cause of genetic heterogeneity at this locus. However, the linkage reported here in the non-male ASP is to 15q21.3-q22.31, at least 25 Mb distal to 15q11-q13, so it is unlikely that this linkage represents the same locus. It is not yet clear whether the cytogenetic abnormalities of 15q11-q13 are at an increased frequency in autistic females. These results support the usefulness of linkage analysis by affected sibling pair sex, and suggest that this approach may be useful for other neurodevelopmental disorders in which a similar sex bias is observed.
Evaluation of parent of origin contributions at these loci lends support to the hypothesis that there may bewith possible parent of origin specific effects and the role of an imprinted gene/s. However, the results of two locus analysis using TwoLoc suggest that the majority of evidence for linkage comes from locus 2 (D7S530-D7S640), and the additional support for linkage at locus 1 (D7S477), assuming that locus 2 is linked, is MLS = 0.83, indicatingdentification of possible sex limited and parent of origin specific effects on chromosomes 7, 9, 15, and 16 should facilitate a more focused approach to candidate gene screening. The human reelin gene maps to 7q22, within the region of paternal linkage, and has been suggested as a candidate for autism susceptibility (see Bonora et al51 for review). Interestingly, a progressive Purkinje cell loss has been reported in the cerebellum of male heterozygous reeler mice, while the females are spared.52 However, screening the coding sequence of this gene for autism susceptibility variants in the IMGSAC sample did not reveal any putative aetiological variants with a high enough frequency to explain the strength of the linkage findings.51 A number of imprinted genes have already been identified on chromosome 7, including several genes within the region of maternal linkage.48,53 Future studies will determine if other genes/transcripts in this region are preferentially expressed from one parental allele.
These results suggest the usefulness of genomewide analysis by affected sibling pair sex and evaluation of parent of origin The suggestion of narrower confidence intervals for the linkage signal on chromosome 7 demarcates a region suitable for high resolution association mapping. However, the possible involvement of epigenetic rather than genetic variation may be an explanation for the lack of causative variants so far identified in candidate genes in these regions.

By Anne BratskeirSpecial to NewsdayAugust 23, 2018
Start the school year on a fresh foot — even if you're not a student. Teachers, too, are looking for a revamp, as evidenced by the response to Newsday's annual teacher makeover contest, which drew more than 100 applicants. As always, there were many terrific candidates, such as the teacher who had lost more than 100 pounds but had no idea how to dress for it. Several wives nominated their “unfashionable” husbands for a redo, while other veteran teachers wanted a modern update.
The makeover journey for this year’s trio began on a sweltering day at Sorell Salon in Roslyn, where co-owner JoAnn Pascente pulled out all the stops. “Teachers, I know what they go through. Their jobs never end. I know how hard they work, and I just wanted to pamper them.”
About a dozen experts worked on transforming our teachers, and it went beyond new hairdos and color. There were scalp and shoulder massages, manicures, makeup touch-ups and even mini facials.
A few days later, the teachers were met by an all-out glam squad at Newsday’s studio that included hair and makeup along with fashion stylists who rolled in racks groaning with smart fall fashions specifically chosen for each of them at Macy’s.
The teachers were naturals in front of the camera, and they’d be the first to agree that they’ll be going back to school this year new and improved, and with something even more unexpected: a discovered sense of confidence. It’s a no-brainer when it comes to grading their efforts and the results:  A+ all around.

WHO Jennifer Lahovitch, 37, of Sound Beach, teaches art and photography at Comsewogue High School, was nominated (unbeknownst to her) by her dad, Ray Lahovitch of Port Jefferson Station, who said, “Every time I saw her, she looked more downtrodden and exhausted. She treats her students and her children (she’s a single mom with three kids younger than 9), the same wonderful way, but she wasn’t taking care of herself.”  The teacher said, “I think my dad knows that I used to be very into fashion and kept myself looking very nice, but now I don’t. I just don’t have the energy.” But, she added, “I would love to show my female students that you can dress nice and look feminine without wearing skimpy clothing.” Her long hair, which she wore in a messy bun, hadn’t been cut for six months, and the color had grown out.

CLASS WORK  Sorell hairstylist Jeannie Oh lopped off some six inches of frazzled hair, bringing her cut up to a stylish lob (a layered, longer bob), and color team Kathleen Abramo and Kristi Caiazzo worked on a two-stage color plan for Lahovitch. First: A warming, cinnamon base followed by rich, golden baby highlights. Added fun: A blue hair extension that she can clip in when the mood strikes her. Makeup artist Ellen Maruca taught the teacher a low-maintenance regime that included using a tinted moisturizer with sun protection and gave her tips on how to play up her eyes. Lahovitch said she admired the quirky Boho-meets-edgy style of Drew Barrymore, and stylist Samantha Brown pulled Macy’s looks that filled the bill.

WHAT SHE LEARNED  “It’s definitely changed me,” Lahovitch said. “Changing your outside appearance makes you feel differently on the inside. I was emotional after the whole thing because you don’t realize where you were before you make that journey, and it’s definitely changed me. Somewhere between baby number two and three, it all went downhill, and now I definitely want to take a little bit more me time, whether it’s putting together a nice outfit or simply blow-drying my hair.”
BEFORE: Teacher Keith Burns of Levittown was seeking an updated look. Credit: Bruce Gilbert
WHO Keith Burns, 38, of Levittown, a sixth-grade special-education teacher at Fort Greene Preparatory Academy in Brooklyn, nominated himself. “I am completely clueless on style trends,” he wrote. Burns has not shopped for himself in six years and hasn’t changed his style in the 12 years he’s been teaching — so that means donning outdated “dad jeans” that did not fit him well. His wife, Heather, described his fashion sense as “not horrible, but it’s not very stylish or interesting, which is why he chose to put himself out there for a makeover.”

CLASS WORK  Master barber Omar Grullon went to work on Burns’ somewhat unruly hair, creating a modified fade that's tight at the sides with more length at the top, along with cleaning up some of his beard, which disguised his good looks. Burns got his first-ever manicure and a special facial for men, courtesy of Irma Meni, who runs the new skin boutique Spa de Beaute, just a few blocks from Sorell. Our stylist was asked to slim down his silhouette with clothes that actually fit.

WHAT HE LEARNED "I gutted my closet and got a bunch of new clothes that fit better," said Burns, who was particularly taken with his new slimmer jeans. As for his new ‘do: “It’s the best haircut I’ve ever gotten," Burns said. "Omar did a great job and showed me how I can do it on my own, because I can’t spend an hour in the mirror.” Overall, he says, he’ll return to school “with a spring in my step and more energy.”
BEFORE: Preschool teacher Tiffany Jackson of Freeport. Credit: Bruce Gilbert
WHO Tiffany Jackson, 40, of Freeport teaches pre-K at Shepherds Gate Academy in Brentwood, and said she was stuck in a same-old, same-old rut. “It’s black pants and a revolving top and flat shoes all the time," Jackson said. And she had absolutely no idea how to wear makeup. Her cousin, Cassandra Jackson-Middleton, added, “If she’s not working, she’s with her babies. She’s like a supermom, and I think she can do better for herself; learn how to do her makeup and look practical, comfortable, sophisticated and sexy at the same time."

CLASS WORK  Hyacinth Samuels worked to blend Jackson’s two-tone color and then added honey golden highlights, finishing it off with a trim and curling the longer layers to add depth and thickness. Maruca showed her how to enhance her light eyebrows and taught her how to apply faux eyelashes. In the fashion department, our stylist introduced her to blazers to add structure, professionalism and interest to even her jeans, and broke her out of her black pants regime with a colorful dress. She even turned in her flats for some saucy red heels.

WHAT SHE LEARNED “I felt like Cinderella … on her best day, at the ball,” Jackson said. “I’m not very adventurous, but now I’m going to try different styles and dress up more instead of being plain Jane. I never thought I would be wearing blazers, but I loved them. And I learned a lot about putting on makeup. ... it was a wonderful experience.”


Q: Way to mitigate parameter dispersion in NMOS attenuator I am building an automatic gain control for a subMHz signal, which comes in the 30-120mVpp range, using a NMOS as VCR. At the output, ideally, signal should be 'compressed' around +-Vpeak_detect_th . I decided to use a NMOS instead of the several circuits using NJFETs I have seen around, like in this circuit ( https://www.engineersgarage.com/circuit_design/circuit-design-automatic-gain-control/) because I can save an inverter stage in the peak detector.
What would be a way to mitigate the NMOS Vgs(th) dispersion in this curcuit? Without having to adjust the bias per circuit in fab?

The trip was really well paced for kids (our youngest is aged six). Most of the hotels had pools so they could chill out after the day's sightseeing. Having 2 relaxed days in both Marrakech and Essouaira at the end were really ideal. Another tip would be: don't pack too much!
I'm hoping that any money we spent there will help the local economies. I'm not sure about the "reduced environmental impact" - travel by it's very nature isn't environmentally friendly. We tried to do our best by bringing our reusable water bottles and using our own bags for any purchases.

River of years
A state board works to preserve the lower Wisconsin
s.
"When I'm out on the river paddling," he says, "and see an eagle fly overhead, it just fills my soul."e cultural landscape."
Cupp traces his affection for the river to childhood. He grew up in Richland Center. His family paid frequent visits to the lower Wisconsin. Back then, he never imagined there would be such a thing as the riverway preserve, or that he would enjoy the good fortune to land the job of executive director for its board.
Established by the state in 1989, after years of contentious planning and negotiation, the Lower Wisconsin State Riverway remains a work in progreacquired about 47,000 acres of almost 80,000 designated for the riverway, Cupp says. Between 550 and 600 landowners account for the remaining acreage. "The long-term objective is for the stacquire the entire 80,000 acres from willing sellers," he adds.
The board administers a code of standardthe river and its valley by controlling land use. The standards don't bar development in the riverway outright, but are aimed at preserving scenic integrity within its boundaries. The board has jurisdiction over permits for timber harvests, construction and modification of structures and other changes that affect the riverway's esthetic value.
There are the occasional frustrations, Cupp allows. A few years ago, the budget-driven siting of a lighted 250-foot Sauk County communications tower outside the riverway boundaries, but within view from the river, proved immune to his most earnest and eloquent testimony on behalf of the riverway board.
But for every frustration, there are rewards. The River Alliance of Wisconsin bestowed its River Champion award on him in 1999, and two years ago on the Friends of the Lower Wisconsin Riverway, an alliance of passionate riverway volunteers and advocates.
Part of his devotion for the riverway stems from an appreciation for how vulnerable the landscape is. "When you look at the growth and urban sprawl throughout population centers in the Midwest," he says, "you see how much land is vanishing. When you have a place as precious as the lower Wisconsin River valley and have the opportunity to preserve that, it instills a sense of awe."
In 1673, Marquette described the Wisconsin River as "very broad with a sandy bottom forming many shallows," flanked by "f." Marquette's river is the pristine baseline Cupp aspires to preserve in the lower Wisconsin riverway.

Also in October, over 100 students in Arizona's Kyrene de la Colina Elementary School were sickened with norovirus.(4)
The cruiseliner industry is another hotbed of norovirus activity.
In February 2014, passengers and crew members aboard Holland America's MS Veendam cruise ship fell ill, suffering from diarrhea and vomiting. In response, environmental health experts and an epidemiologist boarded the 1,273-passenger-carrying ship once it docked in Florida, where they began health assessments and testing. It was ultimately determined that the 16-year-old ship had been involved in similar outbreaks throughout the years and that it failed when it came to sanitation issues, including the discovery of brown liquid that was dripping on clean dishes.(5)
In 2013, two cruise ships, the Emerald Princess and the Queen Mary 2 ocean liners, drew attention when upwards of 200 passengers (aboard each ship) were sickened with diarrhea and vomiting symptoms.(2)

This weekend, my family met up with another family to see the newly released movie, Trolls. With our family of six, their family of five and my oldest daughter's friend joining us we had a total of 12, with eight of those being children ranging from the ages of four to 11. Some may think that sounds like a recipe for disaster, but it honestly went great. I believe that is largely because we were prepared.
I have four children and my youngest is four. For years, going to the movies required finding a sitter. I don't think there is some magical age when a child is ready to see a movie on the big screen. I believe it is about each individual child; and nobody knows their child better than mom and dad.
A great thing about children's movies is the theaters are packed full of children, as they should be. Thankfully, this means the occasional blurting out of "that's funny!" or "he said….insert whatever word has to do with something about going to the bathroom" is very common. Your child doesn't necessarily have to be silent the entire time, but the majority of the time would be good.
Another thing to ask yourself: Is my child able to sit through the duration of the film?
Most kid's movies are a little over an hour and a half. Add the previews and the time is closer to two hours. You know if your child is able to sit for that long. You don't want to pay for a ticket and find yourself engrossed in the movie, only to have to spend the last 40 minutes letting your child run around in the hallway. Movies are way too expensive for that to happen.
My family and are I now at a point where we can spontaneously go to a movie if we want, without forking out extra dough for a sitter, and it is great. If you aren't there yet, you will be soon enough.
I know py", but I also think "if a child at a movie ain't happy, ain't nobody happy." The last thing you want is your little one telling you repeatedly how cold they are during the entire movie. That shouldn't be too much of a problem this time of year as thwear jackets, but just in case it is one of those freakishly warm Indiana days – be sure you pack a jacket or sweater of some type. I have actually brought small lap blankets for my kids before too, and they loved it.
Because we were early, we were able to choose our seats in a somewhat empty theater. We were able to all sit together, which is no small feat for a party of 12. The row was exactly 12 seats long. We decided it would be better to split up and have the parents in one row with the two youngest children, while the other six children sat directly behind us in the row above. Because we arrived early, we could figure all of this out in a stress-free manner while talking, with the lights on. So much better than whispering in the dark while you trip over people's feet.
We either go right before we leave the house, or right before the movie starts. You may hear some grumbles and the occasional, "but I don't have to go!" I still recommend convincing them to try, especially if you have multiple children in tow. Otherwise, there is a good chance you could spend a lot of the movie making trips to the bathroom. This is not fun for you, or for whoever is sitting next to you.
Now it's time for a brief review of the movie Trolls as told by a mom and some small children……..
For those of you considering seeing the movie Trolls, I highly recommend it. The movie was about finding happiness and had a lot of nuggets of wisdom for both parents and children. Some great conversations were had in my family over the next few days that were inspired by the movie's storyline. There was the occasional potty humor (which of course the kids loved) and a couple bits of adult humor thrown in that most little ones wouldn't catch. The storyline was very engaging, the soundtrack made you want to dance in your seat (which we did) and the graphics were fabulous. The movie was done in a very creative way that both myself, and my children, appreciated. By the time we left the parking lot, we had already downloaded the soundtrack and were all dancing in our seats.
But enough from me, let's hear what the kids had to say about it…..
The two four-year old boys in the group left saying, "I loved it! I want some trolls for my Birthday." and "Awesome!" with a thumbs up.
Don't just take our word for it, go and see it yourself! It will not disappoint.


(r),  Though I hree years, this is the only deck I use for readings.
When I saw this the complete deck for the first time in a local Metaphysical store, its flaming intensity scared me. There is a richness and complexity to it that both attracts one to its bold beauty and causes the same aversion the eyes feel when looking at the sun. Just as the eyes can't handle the intense rays of the sun, in my earliest tarot studying days, I wasn't quite ready for the Thoth.
A month later, I broke down and bought the cards, and in spite of their complexity (and perhaps because of it), found them the easiest to read. Each card is filled with a myriad of archetypal symbols, each adding to a potential meaning of the card. Simpler decks, with just one main image didn't really work for me because I found their possible interpretations too limiting. But, as I began to learn the Thoth, I often found myself inexplicably drawn to a certain aspect of the card (a symbol, a color, a picture) that would tend to add more specificity or color to the card's standard meaning. In decks with more straight-forward images, such as those in the Osho Zen deck (which I used to use in readings), I always felt my readings were too generalized.
Conceived and executed by artist Lady Frieda Harris under the instruction of the controversial magician Aleister Crowley, The Thoth Tarot was in fact not published during the lifetimes of its creators. The Book of Thoth, a guide to the tarot written by Crowley and illustrated with Harris�s paintings was published and is still available today, both as a book and freely over the internet at numerous websites. While The Book of Thoth is a wonderful book, that I recommend unreservedly for anyone who owns the Thoth Tarot it may not the best place to start your studies. Instead I�d suggest Lon Milo Duquette�s Understanding Aleister Crowley�s Thoth. Duquette will not teach you the standard meanings of the cards, but he will teach you how the system works, where it comes from, and where to go next. Even if you have no interest in astrology, qabalah, magic, Egyptian mythology, alchemy etc�you can still get much of value from this deck. My experience however was that the decks ability to expand my areas of interest and knowledge was one of its most attractive features.
One of the differences between the Thoth deck, and other well known decks such as the Rider Waite Smith, Marseille or Golden Dawn decks is the court cards. The courts are virtually identical pictorially to those of the Golden Dawn (Golden Dawn Tarot, Golden Dawn Magical Tarot etc.) and are based on the features described in Book T (a piece of Golden Dawn literature on the tarot). In the Golden Dawn tradition there are the standard four court cards. Kings (shown riding on a horse), Queens (seated on a throne), Princes (drawn forth in a carriage) and Princesses (standing). Crowley has maintained these features, but caused much confusion by renaming his �Kings� Knights in order to better represent the virility of the character. For someone used to the RWS or Marseille style Courts in which the King and Queen are both seated, and the Knight is the figure on the horse this can be initially confusing. A King riding a horse is now a feature I look for in a tarot deck when adding to my collection irrespective of the title given to him.
The majors also have been changed in some areas. A number of cards have been renamed to better reflect Crowley�s understanding of the deeper meanings of the card i.e. The Magus (magician), The Priestess (high priestess), Adjustment (justice, numbered 8), Fortune (wheel of fortune), Lust (strength, numbered 11), Art (temperance), The Aeon (justice) and The Universe (the world). While most of the images of the majors are similar to other decks (at least in basic composition) a number of cards have been radically altered to reflect Crowley�s magical journey and better illustrate his understanding of the modern world. Cards such as Lust, The Devil and especially The Aeon stand out in this regard.
The Thoth Deck is available in multiple sizes. At 14cm (5 1/2 inches) high and 9.5cm (3 3/4 inches) wide the larger deck may be too big for many people to shuffle comfortably. It does have the benefit of making the rich details of the card clear, which aids study. The smaller sizes are a very comfortable shuffle and the images do not suffer unduly from the reduced size. The card back shows a stylised Rosicrucian Cross, and is not reversible (the Thoth deck not being intended to be reversed).
The deck that I am reviewing is the 2006 edition from US Games, Inc. It comes in a beautiful lavender colored box (as opposed to the cream colored version), and includes an 80 card deck (there are three versions of the Magus), a 20� by 17� spread sheet for the Celtic Cross spread, and a 48 page instruction booklet (LWB � Little White Book) by James Wasserman. The LWB was edited and updated by Lynn Araujo, and includes

Laura Lyman	Humanities 351 Sp 2014	 March 31, 2014 1 Comment »
The essays we’ve read in Letting Go? have each described some type of historical exhibit in which the public is either encouraged to interact with the exhibit, or has provided the information for the exhibit themselves. And while each exhibit differs in the way its information is presented, an issue addressed by each of the essay’s authors was how they would determine what information is the most “interesting and substantive” and how to make that information easily accessible to their audience.
As we’ve continued to discuss the struggles facing those concerned with constructing and presenting history, the question that I’ve found most poignant, and most difficult to answer, is the same question raised in many of Letting Go?’s essays: Is there a difference between history and memory, and how do we decided if it’s important enough to preserve?
It’s easy to determine what’s important to individuals. If anyone wanted to know what’s important to me, all they’d have to do is visit my Facebook page. Our Facebook profiles are small-scale exhibits about ourselves which we curate deliberately, determining what information to share and with whom. We’re able to edit our posts and delete them if our friends don’t react or respond to them in the way we’d hoped. After seeing a few of the pictures someone posts, reading a few of their statuses, and seeing what kinds of articles and videos their friends post to their wall, it’s easy to establish what types of things an individual values. But are an individual’s memories of their weekend in Vegas with friends or about their turbulent love life worthy of preserving in a historical exhibit for posterity? And should editing historical exhibits be as easy as choosing to delete an un-liked status? No.
New York City’s September 11th Memorial

Let Facebook have the drunken selfies and cat memes. What an actual historical exhibit needs to determine is not what’s important to individuals, but what is relevant to communities and to people in general. Establishing importance among a community may be much more difficult than establishing importance among individuals because the interest of a community probably lies more in more broad concepts or events than in specific things or highly focused topics. For example, while many individuals may be interested in firefighting strategies and equipment, an exhibit about firefighters may not draw much attention, whereas an exhibit about September 11th, an event that continues to affect all Americans alive today, and would likely contain information about firefighting, would probably draw a much larger and more varied audience. The exhibit described in Benjamin Filene’s  was a success because it appealed to the people of the Twin Cities’ interest in a shared past, but allowed visitors choose which areas of the exhibit they wanted to interact with. By appealing to a more general audience, an exhibit can gain attention. If people are interested in the general topic, an exhibit can then engage various groups of people with more specific interests in a range of sub-sections of the exhibit.
But still, how do we determine whose information, whose memories, whose history should be presented in any given exhibit? The events of September 11th, 2001 altered my life by affecting the way I perceive of the world around me, notions of safety, and how certain events affect certain groups of people. But should the memories of a thirteen year old girl with no connection to any of the direct victims be included in an exhibit about September 11th? Probably not. For any given exhibit, the curator needs to make a decision about what they want their audience to gain from their interaction with the exhibit, and whose memories will allow a general audience to gain the most. As we learned from Dr. Von Scheliha, not all memories are reliable, and even though he wants his audience to get an accurate idea of what life in a Soviet gulag was like, there were some accounts he felt it would be irresponsible to use in his representation, forcing him to rely more heavily on some people’s memories than others.
Ultimately, I don’t think there’s a difference between memories and history. However, I do believe that certain memories should be prioritized. The memories of specific people are much events. Because of this, I feel that the curators of cityofmemory.org (and other similarly crowd-sourced exhibits) have the right to delete some stories while drawing attention to others because they want their audience to gain a varied perspective of New York without being subjected to distasteful or offensive stories. It is up to their audience to determine whether the featured stories are of importance to them, and if they’re not, search the site for ones that are, and if they don’t exist, submit their own. While the curator of any given exhibittype of memories and whose memories should constitute the history they present, I believ interact with and question the information with which we are presented to make our own determinations about history and what’s relevantnt.
Zeitlin, Steve. One Response to Should Memories Make History?
Elizabeth Olds April 3, 2014 at 10:45 am #
I think an important statement you made was about how we should “prioritize” people’s experiences. I’m sure that someone who was directly involved with 9/11 in New York is more important than mine of a 5th grader who watched it from her art class TV monitor.
I also think it’s interesting when you made the point about the City of Memories page. Even if the information isn’t important to them, search for one that is, or make their own. If you can’t relate to history, contribute to it.

Hi all, My new computer was running beautifully. Then all of a sudden the GPU fan begins spinning at full speed for no reason for about 2 - 8 mins then slows down again. That has happened a few times and now if I don't turn my machine off for at least 10 minutes it spins madly continuously once it starts going 'spinning' mad. I have a Galaxy Geforce 670 with 2GB DDR5 and it is 10 days old... It does not spin super fast because it is overheated as the case is so very cool and even if I open it up it continues to spin fast - once it kicks into it's fast moments... ANY ideas? I have tried using Galaxy's Xtreme Tuner to control the fan but it does not work once the fan speed goes mental. It does work in normal use as I can manually change the fan speed and you can hear it working and changing. Thanks for any advice.

Greensboro, North Carolina Police Violate and Kidnap Young Man for Victimless “Crime” of Walking Down Sidewalk-Free Street

Greensboro, NC Police Arrest Rufus Scales:
My Commentary: Cowardly costumed criminals operating under color of law in the city of Greensboro, NC, harass, molest, kidnap and imprison a peaceful young man in BROAD DAYLIGHT for the victimless “crime” of walking down one of the many sidewalk-less streets of our community. According to the article below, the State racket against this victim has only just begun, as he and his brother are now facing criminal charges, ensuring that, at the very least, they will be forced to pay some heavy extortion fees demanded by the city court for their imaginary “crimes.”
Many of us in this country have already been LIVING under the personal cloud of Martial Law EVERY SINGLE DAY! And, until those who haven’t are able to TRULY FEEL what it’s like to be automatically guilty in the eyes of the State, and to be subject to systematic, institutional abuse for it, they will NEVER be a part of any long-term solutions, as they can’t even grasp the root of the problem!

Announced in an interview with The Saint, the group will address common student concerns with University accommodation.
Principal Sally Mapstone issues related to student accommodation.
Speaking to The Saint, Professor Mapstone said the group will be made up of student representatives, including the Students’ Association president; Residential Business Services, which handles University accommodation; and representatives from the principal’s office, including the proctor. Other staff or student representatives may be called upon or co-opted by the group depending on the expertise required.
The University also hopes to ensure accommodation is affordable “in the broadest sense.” The group will work to make students aware of bursaries they may be eligible for, as well as ensuring these bursaries are sufficient for student need. It also aims to make information pages and application processes easier to navigate.
Charlotte Andrew, Students’ Association president, said, “My personal hope is that we secure far-reaching changes to the cost of University accommodation for students in St Andrews. In my view, this should encompass a re-evaluation of the application system and distribution of bursaries, as well as the standard rent levels.
“I also intend to ensure that there are guarantees for students currently living in, or who would normally qualify to live in Albany Park, to ensure that they continue to be able to afford their living costs.

How is angle-closure glaucoma treated?
Why is pupil dilated in glaucoma?
The effect of an acute elevation of the intraocular pressure (IOP) on the pupil was investigated. It was concluded that the pupillary dilation noted in this study and probably that in acute angle-closure glaucoma attacks is secondary to pressure inhibition of blood flow to the iris sphincter muscle.
Is angle-closure glaucoma reversible?
Tis not curable with iridotomy or iridectomy. In such cases, the ophthalmologist will surgically create a new drainage system for the fluid in the anterior chamber, either through a trabeculectomy or using an aqueous shunt device.
When does pupillary block occur with angle closure?
The risk of pupillary block is highest with a mid-dilated pupil where there appears to be maximum contact between the iris and the lens. In eyes with angle closure, other factors exacerbate the block, such as the front lens surface being anterior to the plane of iris insertion into the ciliary body base.
What causes primary and secondary angle closure glaucoma?
Primary angle closure glaucoma is caused by relative pupillary block in the majority of cases. In pupillary block, aqueous humor encounters increased resistance as it flowse iris-lens channel. Some degree of relative pupillary block is present in most phakic eyes.
What can be done to prevent pupillary block?
The anterior chamber intraocular lens (I.O.L) is inserted infront of the iris and it will covers the pupil which can block the flow of aqueous humor. That is why all cases with anterior chamber I.O.L should have peripheral iridectomy to prevent pupillary block.
What causes pupillary block in aphakic eye surgery?
Pupillary block causes in aphakic patient are vitreous in the anterior chamber or vitreous pushing the posterior capsule forward with pupillary blocking. In case posterior capsule ruptured during cataract eye surgery, the vitreous will be in the anterior chamber and block the pupil with pupillary block and High I.O.P.

 or her, but the passage is very narrow. The universe is so vast and love gives so much; why make it so narrow? Let it expand and be unconditional, because whenever there is a condition, love becomes ruined. When it is unconditional. it becomes divine.
And love is never satisfied unless it becomes divine because that is the deepest urge in every human being: to be so full of love that whatsoever the condition, the love goes on showering.
So from this moment, remember it. You will forget many times, but again remember. And don't move indifferently. You are passing through the garden; don't move indifferently. Touch a leaf, talk to a tree, mm? just say hello; that will do. No need to utter it loudly.
Indifference kills love more than hatred. Hatred is love inverted, but indifference is absolute negation. People move indifferently. They look at people but they don't look. They touch people but they don't touch.
So let this be your basic sadhana. One day you have to come to the point where you can say to the whole existence 'Beloved of my heart'.

West Allegheny hires WPIAL champion to replace Bob Palko as track coach
Friday, February 22, 2019 | 2:56 PM
Chartiers-Houston girls basketball coach Laura Montecalvo urges on her team during the WPIAL finals Saturday, March 2, 2018 at Petersen Events Center.
Laura Montecalvo, who led Chartiers-Houston to a WPIAL girls basketball title in 2017, was hired to coach West Allegheny's track team, athletic director Dave McBain said. Montecalvo replaces Bob Palko, who was West A's football coach for 24 seasons but also its head track coach for the past two.
"She obviously has a pretty good resume as a WPIAL champion basketball coach," McBain said. "Being in the building, she's already built great relationships with our kids. She had a pretty prestigious high school track career and still conditions kids that same way over the summertime at Char-Houston with her dad Guy. It was an obvious choice for us to move this program ahead."
Palko left the district and was named football coach at Mt. Lebanon on Feb. 12. West Allegheny had to scramble to find a replacement for Palko before track practice officially starts March 4.
Along with coaching football, her father, Guy Montecalvo, was track coach at Washington for 13 seasons. He was announced Thursday as a 2019 inductee into the WPIAL Hall of Fame.


To teach the concept of significance it is first important to activate and engage ideas students may have about why some people are considered important to study and learn about in history (Bransford, Brown & Cocking, 2000). Later, they can build on this knowledge by learning and applying criteria to help them evaluate whether certain people are significant and worthy of historical study.
Who has been a significant (or important) person in your life?
Who are the 3 significant people in history?
What makes the people you have identified significant?
Students also complete a timeline of their life to help them think about significant “milestones” in their development (see Figure 1: Timeline Activity). significant markers in their life and why those might be considered noteworthy. This activity also requires them to interview family members to help them consider these points in their young lives and to create “All About Me” posters that highlight some of these significant milestones.
From these activities, we then consider other figures that students consider significant. Students will often name sports figures and athletes, current pop stars, political leaders, movie stars, and even family members. This allows for a discussion about what really makes someone significant. For example, students may think the pop star Justin Bieber is a significant figure but may have some difficulty explaining why or being able to make a convincing case for his significance. This is where criteria and a more sophisticated notion of significance can be introduced to get them to fully consider what makes certain people worthy of study.


-The Vampire crossbow from Wulfsburg: it requires the yellow danger level.
-The Earthquake Hammer from Wulfsburg is a 2 damage weapon with "roll 6: +1damage".
Now, even by adding both the wulfabomiantion and the standard one, the game is absolutely overly simple. At least, for us. As I'm a kickstart backer, I tried to add some of the special abominations, but the game tends to casually shift between "Abomination pops and get slaughtered" to "there are more abominations than regular zombies".

Meet SnagFilms Filmmakers: Russell Bailey's 'Barmy' is a Comedy About Independence
Los Angeles based first-time filmmaker Russell Bailey created the smart, charming indie dramedy "Barmy" on modest means. The film tells the story of a stubborn cartoonist forced to give up his independence and open himself up to the possibility of romanc.What it's really about: It's all too common to get caught up in the ideal of being self-reliant.
By trying to live at this standard as productive "individuals," beauty of community around them. That'who lives a self-reliant lifestyle to the extreme until he is in a
car-bicycle collision.ce. Through his struggle of being confined to
reevaluate his thought process, while struggling against a growing fondness for his temporary home health care nurse, Amy Murray (Sherill Turner).Why did you want to make movies: Growing up on Star Wars is why I wanted to make movies. Other kids wanted to be Skywalker. I wanted to be Lucas.
I remember being two-years old - one of my earliest memories - and my Dad bought a brand new camera. This thing was a monster. It recorded to VHS. I was fascinated by it, so much so that I built my own video camera
out of Legos. My camera didn't work as well as my Dad's, but I was still happy with it.
Fast forward to elementary school, I took on shooting my first actual "film" as an extra-credit assignment. Pretty much consisted of lighting army men on fire, and demolitions in the back yard. I think there was footage of a groundhog in there too. I figured out that if I had two VCRs side by side, I could cut a film together by hitting "pause" and quickly scrubbing through the footage to find my cuts. I set it all to Edwin Starr's "War". This was my first attempt at editing. Got an A on the project.
I didn't go to film school, but I did take advantage of my friends who did, helping them shoot their 16mm films so that I could get my hands on
a camera, figure out lighting, and get real experience making movies. I
got the best part out of film-school, the hands on experience, without having to pay a dime or sit through lectures.What inspired you to make this movie? I wanted to make a movie that mattered to me. Something that I've struggled with. I knew that I didn't play well with others. Not that I was a mean guy - I wouldn't have stolen your bike or anything. But forget about the bicycle built for two. I wanted to cruise alone.
I didn't realize how much this effected me though until I met my great-aunt for the first time. Ninety-two years old. She'd lived alone for sixteen years - hadn't left the house. A complete recluse. Neither of us knew the other existed. I had just moved to L.A., and it turned out that she lived right down the street in Orange County.
I quickly found out that her house had been condemned, and social services had been knocking on the door for years. She's blind, and handicapped, yet had figured out how to be completely self-reliant for what she deemed necessary. I saw that there was an overwhelming need for
help, and wanted to do everything I could for her. The only problem was, she didn't want my help. She didn't want anyone's help. She wanted to do it all on her own.
After a years-long process of trying to make positive changes in her life, I came to the realization that she and I were the same. Both of us
were self-reliant, but to the extreme where it was a detriment to ourselves. We both needed to change. That's where the story of Barmy came from.Biggest challenges? How do you make a movie on pocket lint? From the beginning, we planned on self-financing the film. I wrote a story with minimal locations, and very few explosions and car chases, so
that we could make it on a low budget. My wife and I worked for a year, setting 100% of one of those incomes aside.
After a year we still didn't have our budget, but didn't want to put off
filming. We tried crowd-sourcing the film, but our all-or-nothing fundraiser didn't make it's goal, so there was no bank. However, the fundraiser raised awareness about the film, and afterward a close friend
contacted me wanting to contribute to the film. Today, he's the executive producer on Barmy. His funding and our savings green-lit us to
go into production.What will audiences respond to? It's my hope that they'll respond to the realness of the characters. Their humanity.xtremely talented cast, and their work really shines in this film. Napoleon Ryan and Sherill Turner both carry the film start to finish in an emotional and captivating way. I believe the SnagFilms audiences will
see this and fall in love with their characters.What films inspired you? We thought a lot about the work of Woody Allen while we were piecing together our visual style. You'll notice that many of our scenes are master-shots, and the camera stays still. In doing this, we found that the actors and their performances pop out, as apposed to trying to give a
film energy through camera movement.
After writing Barmy, we looked back at who Charlie Atwood (Napoleon Ryan), may be most like in cinema. The closest character that we could find was Melvin Udall (Jack Nicholson), in James Brooks's "As Good as it
Gets." Another character who just wants to do it on his own, doesn't need a friend, until he meets his opposite in Carol Connelly (Helen Hunt).
The cinephile looking through a microscope at the film will discover the
beauty of the handiwork of every single crew member on the project. They'll see the gorgeous cinematography by Alan Vidali, and they'll feel
the heart-felt score composed by Sergio Pena. From start to finish I was given the gift of an amazing team.

Shepherd's TRADITIONAL BRITISH Some observers claim that many of the inner workings of the English government operate from the precincts of this conservative, likable restaurant. Set in the shadow of Big Ben, it enjoys a regular clientele of barristers, members of Parliament, and their constituents from far-flung districts. So synchronized is this place to the goings-on at Parliament that a Division Bell rings in the dining room, calling MPs back to the House of Commons when it's time to vote. Even the decor is designed to make them feel at home, with leather banquettes, sober 19th-century accessories, and a worthy collection of European portraits and landscapes.
The menu reflects years of English culinary tradition, and dishes are prepared intelligently, with fresh ingredients. In addition to the classic roast, dishes include a cream-based mussel stew; hot salmon and potato salad with dill dressing; salmon and prawn fish cakes in spinach sauce; and roast leg of lamb with mint sauce.

AHere’s the dirty little secret: most of the time they are just being polite and don’t really want to know, at least not enough to hear the ENTIRE story.
Don’t feel bad, ihave their own lives to worry about and don’t really want a long diatribe about what is happening. They want to know, but they don’t necessarily want to know all of the details…
When someone asks me, “How’s Chris doing?” I could go into all of that (and more) but a) it takes a lot of energy on my part and b) I don’t want to be a bore. So I say something like, “She’s taking a drug that makes her quite fatigued, but other than that she’s doing well. Thanks for asking!” and leave it at that.

 many short questions? ??
Salam everyone, I wanted some information about degree program B-com 2 year program. The required cgpa to clear this course is 2, so my question is that if my Cgpa in a any semester is less than 2 then what will happen or I have to score 2 cgpa only in the last semester or in the all 4 semesters?.plz answer it.
wasalalm
First of all for the better answer you should write the same question to VU via your email address provided to you on this id conduct@vu.edu.pk or your instructor of that specific subject where you have the problem.
Secondly my information says you should have 2 CGPA as overall to get a degree. It will be better to improve the grades of any subject in the last semester or in an additional one. University gives you this opportunity in the last semester. Course selection automatically generates those subjects where you require improvement.


Two-time jail breaker indicted for murder of two cops
5/17/2012 5:04:06 PM -
n, has been indicted to stand trial at the High Court on two counts of conspiracy and murder of two policemen, Constable Prince Kwaku Agyare and Constable Owusu Frimpong, in 2010.
The 35-year-old robber, who was known as the Nankpanduri Terror, has been.
Kombian's committal proceedings are to be held at the AMA Court B in Accra on Friday.
According to t Mr Cephas Arthur, after studying the documents on Kombian, the Attorney-General's Department directed the police to start the process for his trial for the murder of the two constables.
Kombian was handed a seven-year jail term for his first escape from the Gambaga Prison and six years for his escape from the Tamale Prison.
Kombian, who is said to have killed the two policemen and wounded another at Nankpanduri in October 2010, managed to escape to Togo but he was arrested by Interpol in Togo and handed over to the Ghana Police.
Before being declared wanted, Kombian was alleged to have murdered a number of his robbery victims during his brutal operations at Nankpanduri, with his last victims being the two policemen.
After that assault, Kombian eluded the police by shuttling among Ghana, Togo and Burkina Faso and the Police Administration promised to give GH¢3,000 to any member of the public who would volunteer information leading to his arrest.
Incidentally, a day after Kombian's arrest in Togo, one of his alleged victims, Constable Prince Agyare, was buried at his home town near Koforidua in the Eastern Region.
In addition to the murder of and injury to the policemen, Kombian was wanted to face trial in a number of other cases, including robbery, attempted , escaping from lawful custody and stealing.
Until his escape, he was serving a five-year jail term for a previous escape and awaiting trial for robbery and attempted murder.


felt about her. He'd been very careful to keep their relationship friendly and professional. She was his friend, but other, deeper feelings lurked just beneath the surface, like a granddaddy catfish that hid under the mirrored face of a lake, poised and ready to leap up from the depths at precisely the right moment.
Jill rarely talked about her husband. Doug had been surprised when he'd learned that Neil had written a book. He'd picked it up at a discount bookstore and had read it on his vacation. It had been a well-written mystery with a fairly interesting plot, but it hadn't impressed Doug all that much. The lead character was a police detective, but it was obvious that Jill's husband didn't know anything about real police work. If Doug had tried any of the stunts Neil's detective pulled in the book, he would have been up before the disciplinary review board before he'd had time to fill out the paperwork.
So why hadn't Jill caught the obvious errors in her husband's book when she worked with police detectives every day? Doug hadn't wanted to ask her, but one day she'd volunteered the information. Neil had worked alone, sequestered in his office with his computer and his printer. He hadn't wanted Jill to read his book until it was published.
At the time, Doug had wondered what kind of marriage they had. If he wrote a book, he'd want his wife to be the first to read it. It would be something they could share, and he'd certainly value his wife's advice. As far as Doug was concerned, Neil had shot himself in the foot. If he'd asked for Jill's advice, his police detective would have been more believable.
Although there was still some food on his tray, Doug dumped the remainder down the garbage disposal. He hated microwave dinners. The vegetables were mushy, the potatoes were watery, and the meat was so tasteless he felt like retrieving the box from the trash to find out what he'd eaten. But popping a frozen dinner in the microwave was efficient. It seemed like a waste of time to cook from scratch for himself.
Doug had learned how to cook from his grandmother. There were some things he prepared very well, like Tex-Mex tamales that would make your eyes water, frmouthwatering barbecued ribs on the grill. Doug enjoyed cooking if he had a guest, but that didn't happen very often. He could count the guests who'd come for dinner on the fingers of one hand.
The night stretched out before him, and he wasn't sure what he wanted to do. There was nothing on television that interested him. There were no movies he wanted to rent. He was always welcome at the cop bar near the precinct, but he didn't feel like lifting a brew with burned-out colleagues who had no life beyond the force. He'd been there, done that, and it was boring, listening to the same old stories again and again. The older guys talked about the big cases they'd had, the cases nobody else had been able to solve. They were desperate to find some pleasure in recalling a time when they were sharp and smart and useful.
The younger guys were even more pathetic, delaying that moment when they'd have to go home to an empty apartment or a marriage that was heading for the rocks. It took a special type of woman to marry a cop, to live with the fear and uncertainty that went with the job. The wives never knew if their husbands would come home injured, or come home at all. It was almost like being a single parent; they could never count on that romantic anniversary dinner or the baby's first birthday party. Telephones and pagers became their enemies. Because nothing took precedence over work, the wives had to take on the responsibilities of both mother and father; it wasn't surprising so many of them bailed out.
Jill could be a cop's wife. She was strong, and she knew how the system worked. She would understand when he was on call, or if he had to work overtime. But she was married, and he really shouldn't be thinking about her. Her husband was a very lucky man; Doug hoped he appreciated how special Jill was.
He walked to the bookcase and took down Neil's book. There was a color portrait on the back cover, and he sat down on the couch to stare at the man who'd married Jill. Neil was handsome, and he looked sophisticated. If Doug had been a movie director, he would have cast Neil Bradley as a distinguished college professor complete with tweed jacket, intense brown eyes, and a pipe that would have cost Doug a week's paycheck. But Neil had money, now that his book was such a success. Jill had married a real winner. Still, it was odd that she never really talked about her husband.
Doug had always been intrigued by puzzles, and he tried to put all the pieces he'd gathered into place. Jill hadn't seen her husband's book before it had been published. That meant they led separate lives; there were things they didn't share. And Jill never mentioned her husband. It wasn't that she kept her private and her professional lives totally separate. She had spoken of her parents on many occasions, and she'd told him stories about the friends she'd had in college. But she never talked about Neil unless someone asked her a direct question.
Two negatives, but that didn't necessarily spell trouble. Was there a third? Doug thought for a moment, and then he remembered that Jill kept a picture of her mother and father on her desk. There was also a picture of a family reunion, with aunts and uncles and cousins. But the last time Doug had been in her office, almost three years after she'd married Neil, he'd noticed that there was no picture of her husband.
There was a fourth negative. Doug sighed as it came to him. Jill's wonderful smile, the smile that had lit up a room in the past, had been missing for the better part of a year. Was her marriage in trouble? Or was he just grasping at straws, hoping that someday she'd be free to start a new life with him?
It was dark and they were in bed. Connie snuggled up to Alan's back and sighed. Her stomach was queasy and her head felt weightless, like a balloon filled with helium on a string. Was she getting another of her headaches?
She hadn't had a migraine since she'd moved in with Alan. In the past they'd been horrible, keeping her flat on her back in bed for days, unable to eat or even open her eyes. This one seemed coiled, at the very top of her skull, like a rattlesnake ready to strike.
She'd gone to the doctor several years ago, and he'd given her medication. There were warning signs for migraines—Connie knew them all. The doctor had told her to take a pill the moment she started to see the bright patterns of yellow and red start to swirl behind her eyelids.
But the patterns weren't swirling; they were flashing. And they were flashing in a regular rhythm. On, off. On, off. Keeping time like a metronome. Was this really a migraine? Or was it something else?
Cautiously, Connie opened her eyes, but she didn't experience the familiar flash of pain. And then she saw what was making the pattern, a red neon sign that was blinking on and off.
Dew Drop Inn. Connie mouthed the words, but she didn't say them aloud. Alan was a light sleeper and she didn't want to wake him. But there was no place called the Dew Drop Inn near their condo. Where were they?
On a trip. They'd taken a trip and they were in a hotel. But where had they gone? And why? Connie wished she could remember, but she felt completely disoriented, and her stomach was churning alarmingly. She took a deep breath, that seemed to help, and then she moved very slowly to the edge of the bed. Her mouth was dry. She was terribly thirsty. A glass of water might help.
She reached for the light. There were always lamps on both sides of the bed in hotels. But she stopped as she touched the bedside table. A light would wake Alan, and he had trouble getting back to sleep if she woke him in the middle of the night.
