text: Supplemental Methods Worm culture and strains Culture media (modified NGM, containing no added calcium or magnesium) consisted of the following (per liter): 2 g NaCl, 3.1 g Peptone, 3.1 g KH2PO4, 0.5 g K2HPO4, 20 g Sigma A-7002 agar. After autoclaving and cooling to 55˚ the following was added (per liter): 1.6 ml 5 mg/ ml cholesterol in ethanol, 1.0 ml of 100 mg/ ml Streptomycin in ddH2O, 1.25 ml of 10 mg/ ml mycostatin suspension in ethanol. For spread plates we supplemented modified NGM with 1 g per liter of yeast extract and doubled the peptone. Worm food was strain OP-50 E. coli grown in tryptone broth (5 g NaCl; 10 g tryptone per liter) at 30˚ overnight. 6 cm spread plates were spread with 100 l of OP-50 culture 1 day after pouring and incubated 6 more days at room temperature. Streak plates for standard culture were made by dipping a 6 mm rounded-tip glass rod into OP-50 culture and dragging once across the center of the plate for most of its diameter. For growth assay plates, we spread the plates with 15 l of OP-50 culture, leaving a substantial clear border (~7-10 mm) around the edge to decrease the incidence of worms crawling off the media, and then cured two more days at room temperature with lid side up before storing at 4˚ for up to one month. Locomotion plates were made as described (Miller et al. 1999). We observed and manipulated live animals under Olympus SZX-12 stereomicroscopes equipped with 1.2X, 0.13 NA plan apochromatic objectives. The term "growing culture" used in the below methods means we plated 9 or more L2 or L3 starved larvae (depending on strain growth rate) on spread plates and grew them 6 d (or more for some strains) X 20˚ to make adult F1 progeny that had never been starved. We prepared 24-well culture plates for genetic screens as described (Schade et al. 2005). To titer suspensions of worms for precise plating numbers, we took several 2 – 15 l aliquots immediately after vortexing and added them to wells containing 50 l of 10mM sodium azide in 96-well flat bottom plates. The plate contained a grid drawn on a transparency taped to the bottom to facilitate rapid counting with a finger counter. Other worm culture and manipulation essentially followed previously described methods (Brenner 1974; Stiernagle 2006). References and descriptions of the strains used in this study are cited in the text and/ or figure legends. Complete strain names and genotypes of the major non-wild strains in this study are listed below: Strain name KG538 KG614 KG545 EG3776 RM2221 KG1020 Genotype egl-30(ad805) egl-30(ad810)/+ egl-30(tg26) egl-30(tg26) unc-73(ox317) egl-8(md1971) egl-8(md1971); ceEx149 [rab-3::egl-8(+) cDNA/ ttx-3::GFP/ 1 rab-3::GFP] 30/15/15 ng/ ul KG1383 JT9887 KG1277 KG1308 RM2425 KG935 KG1278 KG1283 KG1309 KG1358 egl-8(sa47) goa-1(sa734) unc-108(ce361) unc-108(ce361); egl-8(md1971) unc-13(md1072) unc-29(x29) unc-73(ce362) unc-73(ce362) goa-1(sa734) unc-73(ce362)/ dpy-5(e61); egl-8(md1971) unc-73(ce362); ceEx195 [HS::unc-73E cDNA/ myo-3::GFP] 35/12 ng/l KG1382 KG1356 unc-73(ce362); egl-8(md1971) unc-73(ce362); ceIs39 [rab-3::unc-73E cDNA/ ttx-3::GFP/ rab-3::GFP] 50/15/15 ng/ l KG1452 unc-73(ce362); ceEx208 [unc-17::unc-73E cDNA/ unc17::GFP] 35/25 ng/ l KG1397 KG1393 KG1397 XA7300 KG1341 unc-73(ev802) unc-73(ev802)/ dpy-5(e61); egl-8(md1971) unc-73(ev802)/ dpy-5(e61); egl-8(sa47) unc-73(ev802)/ unc-11 dpy-5(e61) unc-73(ev802); egl-8(md1971); qaIs7312 [unc-73D::UNC73D/ F25B3.3::GFP] (also known as unc-73(ev802); egl8(md1971); D1) 2 XA7314 unc-73(ev802);qaIs7312 [unc-73D::UNC-73D/ F25B3.3::GFP] (also known as unc-73(ev802); D1) EG317 EG4719 EG322 unc-73(ox317) unc-73(ox317); egl-8(sa47) unc-73(ox322) Plasmids KP309, a full-length egl-8 cDNA (Lackner et al. 1999) is gift of Mark Lackner and Joshua Kaplan. To make KG#209 [rab-3::egl-8(+) cDNA] we used Pfu Ultra and primers engineered with restriction sites to clone the egl-8 cDNA coding region from KP309 into Nhe I/ Not I – cut KG#208. KG#208 is a rab-3:: pan-neuronal expression vector identical to KG#59 (Schade et al. 2005), except it contains a Not I site produced by oligonucletide insertion between the Xho I and Bgl II sites in the polylinker. To make KG#281 [rab-3::unc-73e cDNA], we used StrataScript Reverse Transcriptase and a primer engineered with a restriction site to make the full length unc-73e cDNA (the unc-73e isoform we used corresponds to unc-73E as annotated in Wormbase freeze WS170). We then used Accuprime Pfx and primers engineered with restriction sites to amplify and clone the cDNA into Nhe I/ Kpn I cut KG#59. To make KG#94 (unc-17:: expression vector), we used Apa I/ Msc I to cut out the ~1900 bp multi-cloning site + GFP + unc54 3' control region from RM#349p (unc-17::GFP), leaving the 5900 bp vector fragment containing the 3.2 Kb unc-17 promoter. To this fragment we ligated the 1079 bp Msc I/ Apa I fragment (containing the multi-cloning site and unc-54 3' control region) cut from pPD96.52 (myo-3:: expression vector; gift of Andrew Fire). To make KG#282 [HS::unc-73e cDNA] and KG#332 [unc-17::unc-73e cDNA], we used Nhe I/ Kpn I to remove the unc-73e cDNA from KG#281 and cloned the insert into the like-digested hsp16-2:: expression vector KG#45 (Reynolds et al. 2005) or the KG#94 unc-17:: expression vector. For the HEK293 cell culture assays, we cloned cDNAs into mammalian expression vectors that use the CMV promoter. To make KG#309 Flag-unc-73e, we used Herculase II polymerase (Stratagene) and primers engineered with restriction sites to amplify the unc-73e cDNA from KG#281 (rab-3::unc-73e cDNA) and cloned it into Eco RI/ Xho I cut pCMV-Tag 2A (Stratagene). The construct encodes an N-terminal Flag tag (DYKDDDDK), then 10 amino acids of MCS sequence before the inframe start of UNC-73E. We made KG#310 Flag-unc-73e [234-577] using similar methods and the same restriction sites. The unc-73e region in KG#310 begins with EKTPEET and ends with GDLSLGA and an artificial stop codon. To make KG#311 egl-30 (Gq Q205L cDNA), we used Herculase II polymerase and primers engineered with restriction sites to amplify the egl-30 Q205L cDNA from KG#49 (HS::egl-30 Q205L cDNA) and cloned it into Nhe I/ Kpn I cut pcDNA3.1 (Invitrogen). We made KG#312 goa-1 (Go Q205L cDNA) using similar methods and the same restriction sites. We used the Quikchange mutagenesis method to introduce the Q205L gain of function mutations into the wild type G cDNAs. In all constructs involving the cloning of PCR fragments, we sequenced the inserts and used clones containing no mutations in the fragment of interest to establish the final plasmid stock. Transgenic strain production 3 We produced transgenic strains bearing extrachromosomal arrays by the method of Mello et al. (Mello et al. 1991). We used pBluescript carrier DNA to bring the final concentration of DNA in the injection mixture to 175 ng/ l. To make egl-8(md1971); ceEx149 we injected egl-8(md1971) mutants with KG#209 [rab-3::egl-8 cDNA] at 30 ng/ l. To make unc-73(ce362); ceIs39 we injected unc-73(ce362) mutants with KG#281 [rab-3::unc-73e cDNA] at 50 ng/ l. After cloning 12 F2s from one of the stably transmitting lines, one of the lines transmitted the array to 100% of its progeny indicating an integration event had likely occurred. We made unc-73(ce362); ceEx195 by injecting unc-73(ce362) mutants with KG#282 [HS::unc-73e cDNA] at 35 ng/ l. Injection mixtures for ceEx149 and ceIs39 included the co-transformation marker plasmids KG#68 [rab-3::GFP] and KG#67 [ttx-3::GFP] at 15ng/ l each. We used pPD118.20 [myo3::GFP] at 12ng/ l to mark ceEx195. References Brenner, S. 1974. The genetics of C. elegans. Genetics 77: 71-94. Lackner, M.R., Nurrish, S.J., and Kaplan, J.M. 1999.

Welcome to the Middle College High School
As you navigate through our website, you will hopefully see that the students, staff and parents work hard to establish academic excellence as our school's hallmark. We are also proud of our extraordinary partnership with Santa Ana College that opens the door to higher education and educational opportunity to our students.
However, we also understand that there are dynamic changes taking place in K-12 education and the world. To stay abreast of these changes, we are working hard to provide our students with the cutting edge educational experiences it take for our students to be successful citizens in today's global arena.
To that end, MCHS continues to provide effective academic programs as we transition to the new Common Core State Standards. Our teachers have already begun to align their instruction around these new standards that will complement the rigorous learning taking place in the college courses that our students take here at SAC. In addition, we will continue with our outstanding AVID program that supports our students both academically and in preparing for college. In June 2014, 100% of our seniors graduated with 47 of them graduating from SAC with their AA degree at the same time! Approximately 93% of our seniors will be continuing their education at either a 4-year university or here at SAC in the fall!
Outside the classroom, MCHS offers a wide variety of extra-curricular activities with many clubs and organizations, service community opportunities and school spirit activities. Our very active ASB have plans for another spirit-filled year with club and class-competition activities.
History of Name
Middle College High School (MCHS) is a Santa Ana Unified School District school, located at Santa Ana College. A collaborative venture between the Santa Ana Unified School District (SAUSD) and Santa Ana College (SAC), opened its doors in 1997 with approximately 80 sophomores and a staff consisting of four teachers, a high school counselor, a principal and two classified employees. In 2000 Middle College High School graduated its first class with its valedictorian holding the distinguished rank of valedictorian of the high school and the college. Since 2000, Middle College has been a member of the Middle College High School National Consortium, a network of Middle College High Schools. In 2004, Middle College became part of the redesigned initiative of Early College. To make this dream a reality, Santa Ana Unified School District, Middle College High School, and Santa Ana College worked collaboratively to rethink the traditional curriculum sequences, to find creative ways to align and connect high school and college experiences, and then provide the academic and social supports needed to succeed in an intensive early college program of study.
Our students are very active in the governance of our school and in the programs of the college. They participate in a range of MCHS and SAC clubs and activities. Service learning, community volunteerism and leadership activities reinforce our students' abilities to apply academic skills and concepts in life experiences. Student activities include ASB, school dances, lunch time activities, and class competitions to bring our students together in a fun and positive manner.
Parents play a significant role in our success. Parent leaders participate in School Site Council and the PTA in an effort to work with MCHS staff to provide community resources for their children. Monthly parent meetings are well attended and focus on student support and college information themes. The meetings inform and engage parents in their child's educational plan.
Since the implementation of our focus on standards based instruction and assessment, the MCHS Academic Performance Index (API) has improved from 728 in 2003 to 850 in 2009, a gain of 122 points. In addition, we have celebrated a 100% pass rate on the California High School Exit Exam for the past three school years. This data demonstrates that our efforts are closing the achievement gap for our students to provide access to higher level learning in high school and college. MCHS has increased graduation rates, provided support to our students for them to persist in rigorous high school and college courses, and instilled in them a commitment to earn a college degree.
The Middle College High School community at Santa Ana College is proud of our academic accomplishments. In 2007, 2008 and 2009, Middle College High School was recognized as a National Title I Achievement School by the California Department of Education (CDE). Only two schools in California received this honor. We have also been recognized as a 2009 California Distinguished School, and a 2009 National Blue Ribbon School for our work in closing the achievement gap. In 2008 and 2009, U.S. World and News Report listed Middle College High School as a Silver and Bronze Medal winner, one of the top schools in the country.

I couldn't find anything like it in the local stores. Thank goodness for Overstock. The rod was easy to install and is strong enough for the four 63" panels I hung in our kitchen's bay window. The joints are ball pivots so they adjust to any angle you need. I got the black finish - it's somewhere inbetween matte and shiny. I'm very happy with my purchase. BTW, it arrived much faster than I expected.
I rec'd this item quickly, however, the instructions and hardware to hang it were missing. I called O and of course they would take care of it. What I was surprised about is how long it took. What they were doing was checking w/the warehouse to see if they had hardware and mailing that. What I should have had them do was resend the whole set and return what I had rec'd as it would have been much quicker. When you're hanging this you may want to try and put the supports further out so that you can hang the curtains in the bay window area and have them slide right up against each other so they look like they are continuous. My husband followed the direction which included molly bolts so once they were up that was that.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? Exact match
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Seems sturdy
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? good
This is a great curtain rod -- very architectural design, sturdy construction, attractive chrome finish. Pair with four window panel curtains and call it a day!
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? Identical
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Very sturdy! Love the "smart design" that made it easy to install.
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? Identical
This 3-section rod is AWESOME--looks so much more professional than mounting 3 separate rods in our bay window. Cost is actually less than buying 3 rods too, in my opinion.
- Did the color match the color displayed onsite? Yes
- How is the quality of the product? Excellent
- Did the description onsite accurately describe the product? Yes
Thank you Overstock for providing a product that you just can't find anywhere else. This fit my bay window perfectly .. I would highly recommend.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? excellent
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. good
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? excellent
I like what I see; I've been looking for over 3 years for a set like this. I'm installing the set in late July, and do believe it will fit my need. I saw this at my son and daughter-in-law's home in Texas, and knew I wanted to purchase. The price is most excellent. I'm looking forward to seeing this rod set mounted at my bay window. Thank you!
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? The color was better than color on site
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Haven't yet installed the rod set
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? Found it most accurate
I was not able to find an item like this anywhere else. Thanks Overstock.
I ordered a curtain rod for my bay window, it came just as promised in the time promised, The best part was the price was better than anywhere else I could find it.
Versatile bay window rod is the only option for my large bay window in the bedroom. There are no much options in the stores for that particular window kind and lets say, they are ugly. This one is great and has a fair price. Was easy to install but some of the hardware has very poor quality - I used my own, more durable.
I was VERY disappointed with the quality of the rod. We ordered a gold rod set and the first thing I noticed when opening the box was a strong smell of spray paint. The box had "black" crossed off and it became quite apparent that someone has spray painted gold over it. Most of the gold had flaked off of one the rods. I'm unsure where exactly this transformation took place. I am disappointed in Overstock for shipping something that looked like it had been repacked. On a positive note, we did get a replacement within a week and it was in much better condition.
The side rods were fine but the back rod on the rod set was not long enough for my bay window. I had to return it which costly to send it back. I was trying to save money by buying it on-line but ended up costing more because of the shipping to return the item.
wish the mid section was slightly longer but it was a hard-to-find 5/8 in rod so we could handle the length.
Curtain rod looks somewhat cheap, and is very thin......I received it in a banged up/ torn package.
I am very happy with this purchase. It looks great in my kitchen bay window.
Worked out great for my bay window. I would def. recommend them.
The rod worked great in the bay window. The only advice I would give is to make sure to have two people when installing and to remember to twist the screw to expand the plastic dowel so it fits snugly in the curtain rod.
Bought this to hang some linen ****** **** curtains in a bay window. They lookmgreat and are easy to install.
Love the product, came in a timely manor. Went together pretty easily. Only one complaint. The box was bowed a little when it was delivered. Didn't think it would matter, but it did effect the middle rod and you can tell when it was put together. I chose not to return it because I had looked for so long, I was just ready to get my curtains up, and didn't want to go through the hassle of exchange. Overall I am pleased with the look it has given my breakfast nook!
I was looking for a good, sturdy curtain rod for my bay window and wanted something stylish but VERY affordable. This rod won by a long shot. It was good sturdy metal, I bought it in black, it was simple to install (except the anchors were a little difficult, but they always are for me) and it looks great with the wrap around ends! With a coupon, this rod was under ***, I looked elsewhere and they were anywhere from *** for "cheap" looking rods, so Overstock won -- and I'm so glad I got it! That being said, the customer service was EVEN BETTER! I made the mistake of loosing one of the end pieces when putting up the rod, contacted customer service to see if I could purchase a replacement piece, they ended up sending me an entire SECOND rod -- everything included, all for FREE, no questions asked! I couldn't believe it! I now have my gorgeous rod up above my window with grommet style curtains on it and its not only gorgeous, but super easy to move the curtains open and shut on the rod. I would certainly recommend it, would buy another one, but most importantly, would HIGHLY recommend Overstock's customer service.
Buyer beware: The vital part that makes this "corner" rod a corner rod is missing. I don't normally write reviews but this item needed one. First: I ordered 2, 1 pewter and 1 black. What I got was 1 black and 1 brown. Second: not just one but BOTH came without the corner connectors. Now I have to package the brown one and send it back. Customer service is sending the pewter to replace the brown. Then the parts department has to find the corner pieces from the MFG and send it to me. All of this is more work for me. I requested that someone look at the replacement rod to make sure it has the vital parts. The price of this product does NOT match the cheap quality. I will give Kudos to Customer Service as she handled this order with efficiency. Now I wait to see if all of these hoops pan out without further intervention.

Mount Sinai Scientists Identify First Gene Linked to Heart Muscle Disease in Children
Findings show several FDA-approved drugs may also be effective in patients diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy.
Scientists at Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, along with collaborators at institutions in India, Italy, and Japan, have identified the first gene linked to childhood-onset familial dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), one of the most common heart muscle diseases in children. It is a progressive and potentially fatal heart condition resulting from an enlarged and weakened heart muscle.
The study, published in Nature Genetics, also revealed a link between DCM and excessive activation of the protein, mTOR. Currently, there are several existing FDA-approved blocking drugs for this protein including rapamycin, currently used primarily as an immunosuppressant after solid organ transplantation. Promising preliminary research indicate that at least one of these mTor inhibitors may be effective in halting progression of the disease.
"One day we hope to have therapeutic treatments for all of the different genetic variations that contribute to this complex disease, not just medications that delay heart failure," said Valentin Fuster, MD, PhD, Director of Mount Sinai Heart, the Zena and Michael A. Wiener Cardiovascular Institute, and the Marie-Josée and Henry R. Kravis Center for Cardiovascular Health, and Physician-in-Chief at The Mount Sinai Hospital. "This extraordinary study may lead to the first of those treatments and offers new hope to a group of patients with no other medical recourse."
DCM is a disease characterized by progressive weakening and enlargement of the heart muscle, which can lead to heart failure and premature death. Experts estimate that it likely affects about one in every 250 individuals. The genetically complex disease is associated with variants in at least 40 genes, with the underlying causes of 50-60 percent of cases remaining unknown. Currently, DCM has no cure as the available medicines only delay the onset of congestive heart failure or the need for aggressive therapies like heart transplantation.
In this research effort, scientists conducted DNA sequencing on more than 500 adults and children with DCM and more than 1,100 healthy controls from several ethnically distinct cohorts to learn about the genetic profile of the disease. They identified changes in the RAF1 gene as a cause of DCM and found that patients with these mutations were more likely to have been diagnosed with the disease as children. These genetic variants accounted for approximately 10 percent of childhood-onset DCM cases in the populations studied. Also, the RAF1 variants increased activity of the protein mTOR, which can be inhibited with several drugs already approved by the FDA.
To validate their findings, the scientists modeled these genetic changes in zebrafish. When treated with the medication, rapamycin, one of the FDA-approved drugs used to inhibit the mTOR protein, the zebrafish heart defects were partially reversed and protein levels shifted to a healthy profile.
"There are currently virtually no treatments for dilated cardiomyopathy targeted to genetic changes, so the finding that commercially available drugs may be effective for patients with childhood-onset, RAF1-induced DCM is a remarkable advance," said Bruce Gelb, MD, Director and Gogel Family Professor of the Mindich Child Health and Development Institute at Mount Sinai and senior author. "The critical next step is to study this biological mechanism in a mammalian model and generate data to support a clinical trial of rapamycin or a related drug for DCM patients who have these genetic variants."

A/N: So, this isn't my favorite chapter so far, but I promised I'd have a new one up by Monday and here it is. Basically a lot of set up for later plot, but there's more Joker so that's always good. We got 2 reviews for the last chapter, so could I at least ask for 3 brand new reviews before the next chapter is put up? Because reviews make me happy! And you always want to make the writer happy, right? ;) Enjoy!
"Is he dead?"
Dot. Dash. Dash. Dash.
I tapped the words against the wall, smiling the whole time. When I had finished there was a pause, and then another series of taps came from the other side.
Dash. Dot. Dash. Dot.
It was a 'C.'
He never called me by my name—well, never called me by my first name. He liked my middle name more. Carine. Our dad had picked it out, mom had told us once. She didn't like it all that much, and she hated it when J called me by it, but I didn't care. I liked it better than the boring old first name mom had given me anyway.
What a stupid name.
Jack Louis and Jillian Carine. Twins named Jack and Jill. God, how lame could you get?
But J called me Carine. He had other names for me, too. Names to tease me with. Sometimes he called me 'Lillian,' or 'Carina,' 'Carnie,' sometimes 'Carrie' when I was really angry or he felt like I was blowing things out of proportion. And there were plenty others.
An hour or two passed before I heard another knock on the wall. It wasn't anything fancy, wasn't even really a code. It was just a single, soft tap. I stared at the wall for a moment before tapping once in reply.
He wanted to know if I was asleep yet.
A few minutes later I heard my door open and close, heard footsteps cross the room before I felt the edge of the bed sink a little.
"Still awake?" he asked quietly through the darkness, and I only nodded. He laid down beside me on the bed, and I let out a sigh.
When we were kids we'd shared a room. I think I'd liked that better. If I ever had a nightmare he would always know, and he'd wake me up before it got too bad; I'd do the same for him, too. And when he was there, I always knew I had someone watching over me. 'Cause J wouldn't ever let anything bad happen to me.
But when you got to be teenagers, things changed. Mom said it wasn't right for us to share a room—we were too old, and brothers and sisters shouldn't sleep in the same room once they got to be so old. It was all about privacy and junk.
If our mom only knew...
"I don't feel so good..."
I was quiet for a moment before rolling over to face him. He had his back to me, and I propped myself up on my elbow to try to get a better look at him.
"Why? What's wrong?"
"I dunno, I just feel kinda... lightheaded..."
I watched him at first, then touched his arm. He hesitated, then rolled over to face me, and I felt the color drain out of my face. I slapped both hands over my mouth to keep from screaming, but I really think I couldn't have screamed even if I wanted to—I was sure I had stopped breathing, sure I didn't have the air in my lungs to muster up a whisper let alone a scream.
There was blood everywhere. In his hair, on his face, dripping down his throat and soaking through his shirt. And it was coming from a pair of scars cut into the corners of his mouth, scars just like the ones that had been cut into that trucker's face, just like—
"Lightheaded, Carnie. Get it?" Jack prompted, sitting up slowly with a broad smile on his bloody face. "'Cause it's a lot of blood. I'm lightheaded."
Never look away from something you're afraid of.
"Is he dead?"
Dot. Dash. Dash. Dash.
Dash. Dot. Dash. Dot.
When I sat up, I was drenched in sweat. My terror had soaked through my scrubs, had bled into the blankets, I wouldn't have been surprised if it had dripped right down into the sheets...
I pulled my hair away from my face, out of my eyes, breathing hard the whole time, almost panting, trying to wipe the sweat off my face and get a sense of what was happening.
"Just a dream," I gasped out loud, shaking my head as I jumped off a bed and onto my feet. "Just a dream, wasn't real..."
Who are you trying to convince? a voice from the back of my crazy-fogged brain asked.
"God, you've been around him for less than a day and he's already inside your head..." I said, trying to drown out the voice. "You're a real piece of work..."
Oh, he was in our head a long time ago. When we first started tapping out that letter—J's letter—to him from our cell, he was in our head even then. It didn't take much, either, did it? Just a single look and we were smitten. Moths to a flame and all that, remember?
I shook my head, turning in circles once or twice as I tried to get my bearings. What did I remember last? There had been the trucker, and then I'd checked us in—
If I were you—and I am—I'd get myself back to the crazy house before we get ourselves into real trouble. This guy is nothing but problems. He's already killed one person—
"To protect me," I murmured to myself, eyes roaming the motel room without really seeing anything.
And God knows how many other people he'll kill. We've heard the stories, we know what he's capable of. No, better we went back to the padded cell before the men in the white coats have to drag us back kicking and screaming.
"But I don't want to go back there..."
Better than what he's got us in for. He's a whole different kind of crazy. We can't handle him. And he'll make us worse, break us right along that fracture we've got running along inside our head. Are you sure we're ready for that?
'Cause I sure don't think so.
And that means you don't think so either.
I was quiet for a long time, standing very still. No, I wasn't hearing voices. No, I'm not that crazy. But I had to admit that the logic was there, plain as day. I wasn't wrong... he could break my already damaged brain into a hundred little pieces and then some. Even I had to admit that I might not be able to handle whatever it is he had kept me for...
But then again, I'd never know if I didn't try, would I? And what was the worst that would happen?
I'd go back to Arkham? Hell, I was headed there anyway if I didn't stick it out and see this thing through.
I'd go even crazier? Pfft, I wouldn't mind a good dose of the crazies. What I had was so simple, so basic. No hallucinations, no voices, no split personalities, no obsessions. Just a head full of bad memories I couldn't quite remember and work through, memories that came to me in dreams and nightmares like broken pieces of an already-too-complicated jigsaw puzzle. That, and a knack for being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Then there was the possibility that I'd die, that he'd kill me or I'd get killed while tagging along...
"What the hell," I said to myself. "You're as good as dead if you go back to that hell hole anyway. Might as well make the most of it."
By now I wasn't panting anymore, and I'd coolled off a bit. A sense of calm was creeping over me, up my spine and over my head before it rushed down to my toes like a roller coaster ride. I had my wits about me, and I started to reason through what had happened. The trucker, the room, and then...
Oh yeah, that's right, he'd knocked me out cold.
"Really knows how to treat a lady," I grumbled to myself, glancing over at the bed I had gotten up from only minutes ago. The blankets and sheets were all twisted up, like I'd been tossing around in my sleep.
Huh. He'd actually taken the time to put me on the bed...
Before he'd left, that is. He wasn't here, I could tell that with one look around the tiny motel room. But I could tell he'd been in and out. For one thing, there was a set of clothes laid out on the other bed, the one I had't destroyed during my nightmare, and they looked like they were about my size. I crossed to them, running my fingers over the fabric.
My first outfit that hadn't consisted of scrubs or an inmate's uniform in years.
It wasn't really special. A black jacket, black pants, a deep purple tanktop. But no, that wasn't true, it was special 'cause I'd be wearing something other than this ridiculous scrub set that I could never quite pull off.
I grabbed the top and pants and went to the bathroom, flipping the lightswitch on a bit hesitantly. It was a grimy bathroom, that was true, but I'll give it credit—it wasn't anywhere near as bad as I thought it would be. The shower was a little yellowed, just like the tile and sink, but everything in this place looked a little worse for wear.
I walked to the sink and heard myself laugh. There was a toothbrush, toothpaste, soap, shampoo, a razor... We're talking above and beyond Gotham motel hospitality. No, my fellow escapee had been so kind as to grab the essentials whenever he'd gotten my outfit. How thoughtful.
I folded up the clothes and laid them on the toilet lid before closing the bathroom door and turning the water to the shower on. It took me a minute to figure it out—I hadn't taken a private shower in forever; I was more used to the group hosing they called a communal shower at that hell of an asylum—but I got it eventually, and I let the water heat up while I slipped out of my prison uniform for what I hoped was the last time.
By the time I'd gotten into the shower, the water was so hot it practically burned my skin. But in all honesty, I didn't care. To me, warm showers were a rarity. Just as rare as any other amenity. And I'd use up every single drop of hot water this hole-in-the-wall motel had if I could. 'Cause it felt great.
When I started soaping down, I realized I still had the trucker's dried blood on my arm. There was even some on my neck and cheek that I'd never had the chance to notice. I scrubbed it off as quick as I could, but I couldn't shake the feeling it was still there. Like I couldn't get it off, a kinda crawling on my skin, y'know? The blood, the grime from that asylum that I don't think I'd ever be able to wash off, that gross feeling that I couldn't ever really get clean... But I had a wild imagination, even I knew that.
Shaving was a treat. I mean, I might have still felt the prison on me, but I still hadn't felt this clean in ages. I used a whole handful of that freaking shampoo. A handful. You couldn't see what color my hair was past the white of those soapy suds. Hell, I don't think anyone had ever had as much fun in a shower as I was having then.
Well, I'd take that back...
When I'd finally gotten a good deal of the shampoo out of my hair—and out of my eyes—I turned to let the water run down my back again, and that was when I saw him. It was really quick, just a glimpse, and when I blinked he was gone. Even now I don't know if it was just a trick of the light, the soap in my eyes, or what. But I'd swear I'd seen him standing in the doorway, and that as soon as he realized I'd spoted him he was gone.
It was only a couple minutes later that I ran out of hot water. It was a sudden burst of cold and then nothing but cold water, and I knew my time was up. Sadly I killed the water, grabbed for a towel, and dried off. Pretty soon I was dressed up in the clothes he'd brought me (ha, like a little dress up doll) and had gladly brushed my teeth.
When I finally came out of the bathroom still towel drying my hair, I found him pacing back and forth beside his bed, his face turned down and his bright eyes on the floor. It was like killing that trucker had been his fix, and now he was high as a kite, jazzed, and ready to take on the world. But that wasn't all that had happened.
I had changed and so had he.
He was dressed in a pretty nice suit, by the looks of it. A very purple suit, too. Purple overcoat and pants, a green vest, a sort of brown and orange neck tie, and a blue shirt with a funky geometric pattern.
His face was different, too. White greasepaint all over, red along his lips and scars, black ringed around his eyes. And his hair... he'd put some kind of gel in it, I guess, to make it stringier, curlier, and I think even a little green.
"You knocked me out," I said pretty plainly, and he looked up at me a bit more darkly than I would have liked. He took a moment to think my words over, I guess, but then he smiled.
I'm gonna take that as a good sign...
"I had some, ah, errands to run," he said before standing up a bit straighter, as though modeling his outfit. "Whaddyou think?"
"I think you just enjoy jerking me around, like a mad dog with one of those rope toys," I said as I moved to a rickety old dresser, looking over the assortment of knives he had laid out since he'd come back. These were so different from the knife he'd killed the trucker with. They were lean and light, some of them had retractable blades. These looked more like his style, looked more like something he'd kill with.
"And the suit's very nice, by the way," I added as I picked up one of the sharper blades. I don't think he cared all that much about what I thought of his suit, though. He was a bit more fixated on the way I was fondling one of his knives. I glanced up at him with a small smile, catching him in the act as he started to cross the room to me. He froze, but I thought it was funny. He didn't want me handling his babies. "Mind if I use this?"
"Yeah," he answered coldly with a lick of his lips, but I took it anyway and walked back to the bathroom. He was watching me pretty closely—I'd even say nervously if I thought someone like him could be nervous.
I stopped in front of the mirror and lifted the knife, bunching my hair up in my hand before I began shearing it off. He had followed me a few more steps and I had the feeling his eyes were stuck on the blade sawing back and forth. You'd think he had a thing for knives or something.
Ha. What a crazy thought, right?
"Are you, ahem, upse-t about what happened to our frrriend, the truck driver?" he asked, now standing in the bathroom's doorway. He never looked away from the knife, though.
"Nope, not a bit," I said calmly, trying to make sure I cut the hair as evenly as I could. The odds were against me, though.
"Mmhmm, hmm, you sure?"
"Positive," I answered, but I wasn't so sure to be honest. Not anymore. Mostly because he was bugging me about it. He moved even closer, and I froze as his gloved hand wrapped around mine, loosening my fingers and taking the knife from me.
"Well, you were talking in your slee-p," he said as he lifted the knife to the back of my hair, cutting through the tangles with a lot more experience than me. "Something about, uh, blood-uh."
Talking in my sleep, I thought to myself. I didn't like that. I'd never done that before—least, not that I knew of. But I tried to pretend like I didn't care. But I could see him staring at me in the mirror's reflection, and once again I had that feeling that he could see right through me.
"Just a bad dream... Nothing special."
He laughed, his gaze swaying from my reflection. He was slowly working his way around my hair, and soon his arms were practically around my neck to get to my bangs.
I didn't like it. It'd be so easy for him to just break my neck if he wanted to...
"Now, now, if you're going to be par-t of our little t-eam, you can't be keeping secrets." He was giggling to himself now, cutting of a good chunk of my hair before lowering his hands to my shoulders. We both looked at my reflection in the mirror, and then we looked down at how he was holding the knife to my throat.
Lightly pressed against the skin, almost casually, as though he didn't even realize it was there, but he did, he sure did...
"Who says I want to be a part of your team?" I asked, staying perfectly still.
"Oh, I think you would have run faster than tha-t if you didn't want to," he said matter of factly, turning the blade in his fingers so that the point turned against my skin. He wetted his lips, let his eyes roll back for a moment like he was thinking, and then went on. "No, if you want to earn your keep-uh like a good little carney, you'll—"
"What?" I said in a breath. In an instant, I didn't care about the knife, or about him, or anything. It was what he'd said that bothered me.
If you want to earn your keep like a good little carney...
"Problem?" he asked, his head tilting to the side a bit. He wasn't looking at my reflection now, he was looking straight at me.
But I wasn't in his hold for much longer. I quickly jerked away, glaring at him as I backed away. I didn't even notice that when I did, his knife dug its way into my throat and cut a clean slice right down my neck with a little curve at the end. Kinda like a 'J' now that I think about it.
But right then I didn't care.
"What did you just call me?"
"A carney, I think-uh," he said with an arch of his eyebrow, twirling that knife. "Do you have some kind of aversion to, ah, circus fol-k?"
I looked down at the floor and shook my head, but my eyes were wide and I wasn't seeing the floor. I was seeing the bloody face of my brother as he smiled at me with those grotesque, dreamed up scars...
Lightheaded, Carnie. Get it?
But that had been my brother, and this wasn't my brother. He didn't know my nickname. He was talking about carnival workers, carneys for short...
I was making mountains out of mole hills here. Blowing things out of proportion. I just needed to chill out. 'Cause if I didn't, I was gonna get myself killed.
When I finally looked back up at my captor, he was leaning with one arm against the sink, still twirling that knife, smirking, holding in a laugh.
"You're, uh, bleed-ing all over your new ou-tfi-t," he said, motioning to my neck with his blade.
I lifted a hand to my skin, feeling the blood on my fingers, looking down at the red liquid on my hand and swallowing hard. I moved to the sink and quickly washed it off—
(Hate blood, can't stand it, gotta get it off, J, get it off me, oh, God, J, get it off...)
Then grabbed up a hand towel to soak and press to the cut. It wasn't too deep or too serious. Just a cut, nothing more. I glanced up at the mirror and saw that the damage was already done. There was a pretty line of scarlet that had soaked into my shirt, blending with the purple to make a black-ish color.
And in the meantime, he hadn't even moved. Not once. He was still leaning against the sink, and now I was inches away, and his eyes were on the cut and the blood. I heard him breathe in deeply through his nose, and for a second I thought he was trying to smell me, but then I thought he was trying to smell the blood. And that didn't realize surprise me.
He leaned a bit closer, and I watched him—or rather, his reflection. I watched his hand—the one free of the knife, thank God—lift and touch my hair, rubbing the now-short blond locks between his fingers. When he pulled them away, I could see blood from my neck, from my hair, on the purple leather of his gloves. He rubbed his fingers and thumb together, eyelids fluttering for a moment, and then he smiled with a soft growl.
"Mmmm, get cleaned u-p," he said in a low voice, tilting his head again as his eyes rolled up to meet mine. "We're, ah, we're gonna go ou-t for a while."
"Where?" I asked, pressing down on the towel a bit harder to try to stem the bleeding.
"You've been cooped u-p in a six by five cell for, ah, years, and when I say we're going ou-t, you're gonna ask where?" He said this all very casually, before smiling with those scars curling up at the ends. "Now tha-t's funny."
(Oh, brother, you better cut out the jokes...)

Superior property, wonderful vacation getaway spot
We are just back from a 3 week stay . This condo is located right on the beach in a beautiful very well maintained, well run condo complex. The condo itself is clean and well maintained because the owner wants to keep it in superior condition. Jim (owner) contacted us shortly after our arrival to make sure we were happy with everything at the condo and after our stay was over he called to solicit our comments and suggestions for improvements. It is very nice to have such a concerned owner. We have stayed at this condo the last two years (2014 & 2015) and have made our reservation for next year (2016). We love this spot. The complex is in a quiet part of the island and is quiet itself. It has a beautiful courtyard with a wonderful pool. We enjoy sunrise breakfasts in the Lenai that faces the beach. We love that we can just walk out this ground level unit for a stroll on the beach or a bike ride on the great trails around the Island without having to wait on an elevator. We have stayed in several other condo in the Logger Head complex over the years, but this is best. I am very happy we found this condo/owner.
Enjoyed Our Vacation and Hope to Return
Thanks for sharing this beautiful Paradise with us.
The touch pad on the door was a wonderful addition. It made our coming & going so much easier without a key!
We enjoyed our vacation and hope to return another time.
Thanks for checking on us and always responding to our e-mails and questions.
A real gem on Anna Maria Island
My partner and I rented Dan's lovely one-bedroom unit after seeing it on vrbo.com. We'd never done this before and were hesitant but willing to take a chance. And we're SO GLAD we did. Dan's condo was a clean, well-equipped unit and just what we needed for our two-week winter getaway. It was so easy to get around the island either on foot or riding the trolley that we really didn't need our car. The Runaway Bay complex was wonderfully quiet and filled with friendly snowbirds like us. (The only problem was that we had to leave!) Thanks again, Dan, for your professionalism and concern throughout the rental process. We'd definitely recommend this to friends and family.

To appraise a vehicle, please select a model below:
In its quest for greater performance, Bentley went about creating the Continental Supersports. As the most powerful road-going Continental GT to date, the Supersports boasts a 621-horsepower W12 engine and modifications for increased cornering performance. Weight has also been trimmed thanks to the removal of the rear seats and the addition of lightweight front seats.
The race-inspired cockpit should be a delight for the enthusiast driver, with carbon fiber and faux suede adorning most surfaces. Interested parties should be aware, however, that the Supersports and Supersports Convertible sacrifice ride quality in the name of performance. And even with those concessions, these ultimate Bentleys are still outclassed by most other exotic cars.
Used Bentley Continental Supersports
Introduced in the 2010 model year, the Bentley Continental Supersports has seen little in the way of changes. The Supersports Convertible joined the lineup in 2011. Notably, the 2010 and '11 Supersports had a less advanced infotainment interface that suffered from a small screen and nonintuitive controls.

Due to inclement weather conditions, the Capitol Visitor Center will open at 10:30 am today, March 6.
In the 19th century, Americans vigorously exercised their First Amendment right "to petition the government for a redress of grievances." An antislavery petition drive in the 1830s swamped Congress with 130,000 petitions in a single year. In response, beginning in 1836, proslavery members of the House of Representatives passed a series of gag rules to prevent discussion of such petitions. Representative and former President John Quincy Adams of Massachusetts worked for years to overturn the gag rule, which the House finally repealed in 1844.

Wonderful tour!! Very informative, well organised and better then we were expecting. Nice to have a small group. Food delicious.
March 2015
Had a brilliant guide who had to accommodate 2 languages. The Eiffel Tower and Versailles was just tremendous which you dont really appreciate the size until you actually see it in person. Fantastic.
Lunch at the Eiffel Tower was delicious with exceptional service. This tour included a cruise on the River Seine with dinner which was very nice. Service excellent. Unfortunately the river Seine was very high so we couldnt go under some bridges further up. I understood the reasons why.
