Due to this Louisville staff's ability to develop their players into NFL prospects, a number of the region's top athletes will be participating in one of the Cardinal's camps this weekend.
"When we recruit, we want to recruit guys that have the dream and ambition to play in the NFL," explained U of L head coach Bobby Petrino. "It's tough to be a college football player. You are required to do a lot of things, so you have to have that drive behind you."
Dozens of players will be trying to show that drive to Petrino and staff on Saturday and Sunday at the Papa John's Cardinal Stadium football complex.
While it is impossible to uncover all of the athletes that will be attending this weekend's camps, the following list includes some of the players that have confirmed with InsidetheVille.com that they plan on participating. Make sure to remain logged on to InsidetheVille.com for additions to this list throughout the weekend.

A 15-year-old girl has been arrested for allegedly selling explicit nude photos and videos of herself online.
Police in Kent County, Michigan, have now charged the girl for operating the illicit online business and according to Smoking Gun, the court documents show more than 20 transactions took place netting her over $1000 (£680).
Reported in the Mirror the girl allegedly told family members that she had been producing nude photographs of herself and selling them to strangers online. Relatives then told the girl's mum and she contacted the police.
Detective Matthew Batchelder wrote in the search warrant affidavits that the teen confessed to selling images using her account on messaging app Kik. She would post simply stating that she was 'selling stuff' and then men would contact her to ask what was on offer – she would respond by saying she'd send them nude pictures and videos for a price.
Although there was reportedly no set price, people would pay cash for videos, which didn't show her face but were explicit in content. During police interviews the girl said she recorded at least 15 illicit videos in the two months before she was caught.
The girl stated her 'customers' knew she was underage but she 'couldn't elaborate' how they knew, according to Detective Batchelder. A search warrant allowed access to the email details of four of the girl's repeat customers and the court documents state: "It is believed that child sexually abusive material is likely to be found within the Google Gmail accounts listed."
The investigation is ongoing but police expect the girl will be charged with disseminating child pornography – a felony offence in America.

Barberio was scoreless in Game 6 despite the Wildcats' seven goals, but still finished as the playoff leading scorer among defensemen by three points.

Moncton earned their biggest win of the year thus far, knocking off top-seeded St. John on the road to take a 3-2 series lead in the QMJHL Finals. The Wildcats are one win away from a league championship and joining WHL champion Calgary, OHL champion Windsor, and host Brandon at the 2010 Memorial Cup.

Moncton came back from a 2-0 deficit, but the Sea Dogs won in the overtime thriller 3-2 to tie the series at two games apiece. Barberio went scoreless for the first time in three games, and it was a cross-ice pass in the Moncton zone between him and Brandon Gormley that was intercepted and ended up in the back of the Wildcats net for St. John's second goal – a shorthanded marker they'd like to have back. The pivotal Game 5 will be played in St. John Saturday.
Draft Watch
Moncton defenseman Brandon Gormley, a possibility for the Lightning at No.6 in the summer's draft, was scoreless and minus-2 in Game 4. Gormley Playoff Totals: 19 GP, 2-15-17, +12, 2 PIM.

Draft Watch

Barrie Colts 2 @ Windsor Spitfires 6

LW/C Alex Hutchings, BAR: 0-1-1, -1, 4 PIM (tripping, hooking)
Playoff Totals: 13 GP, 2-8-10, +4, 12 PIM
Season Totals: 68 GP, 47-34-81, +44, 58 PIM
Hutchings set up the game's first goal when he found Luke Pither on the power play, but it wasn't going to be Barrie's night as Windsor scored the game's final four goals and clinched the Robertson Cup with a stunning sweep of top-ranked Barrie. Barring a surprise, this ends the junior career of Hutchings, who is set to get a contract from Tampa Bay this spring and likely be in AHL Norfolk next season. Hutchings had a somewhat forgettable playoffs for his standards, scoring only twice in 13 games and only registering an assist in the finals. He also battled a groin injury that caused him to miss an entire series, however. He did set personal highs for playoff games played with 13, assists (8) and points (10). He had three goals in five playoff games last year.
If this was indeed Hutchings' last OHL game, he finishes his career with a combined (regular season and playoffs) 116 goals, 114 assists, and 230 points in 256 games.
Draft Watch
Windsor defenseman Cam Fowler, who will likely go at No. 3 or 4 in this summer's draft, was First Star in Game 4. He had two goals and an assist in the game to increase his playoff totals to 3-11-14. Taylor Hall, who will go No.1 or 2, also had two goals and an assist in Game 4, giving him 17-18-35 in 19 playoff games. He did not win the Wayne Gretzky Trophy as playoff MVP, however, as that went to Adam Henrique (Devils 3/08), who had 20-5-25 to take the honors.
Finland won the final leg of the annual Euro Tour, the LG Games, on goal differential over the Czech Republic. Lightning prospects Vasily Koshechkin and Johan Harju participated for Russia and Sweden, respectively, as did current Lightning player Victor Hedman for the Swedes.

Victor Hedman, for his part, had 1 goal in 3 games and a +2 rating with 2 penalty minutes. On Team Russia, Vasily Koshechkin was 1-0-0, with a 2.00 GAA and .944 sv% in his only appearance.
Ex-Lightning forward Evgeni Artyukhin had 1 goal in 3 games but was -2 with 4 penalty minutes. Former first-rounder Alex Svitov had 1 assist and was also -2 with 2 penalty minutes.

NEW YORK -- Pedro Feliciano is staying in New York, but just switching boroughs. The lefty reliever is moving from Queens to the Bronx, becoming a Yankee after spending his entire career as a Met.
"I think it was a good thing to stay in New York," Feliciano told ESPNNewYork.com "I mean, that's the best city in the States."
A source told The Associated Press that Felciano will receive a two-year deal for $8 million. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the contract, which includes a $4.5 million club option for 2013, is subject to Feliciano passing a physical.
SI.com first reported the deal will be for two years with a team option for a third.
The Mets had offered arbitration to Feliciano. He declined, and his former organization did not show any inclination to offer a multiyear deal.
Feliciano fills the role as the second lefty reliever in the Yankees bullpen. General manager Brian Cashman has made it a point of emphasis this offseason to add another lefty to the bullpen to complement Boone Logan. The Yankees have Damaso Marte under contract, but he is expected to miss most, if not all, of the season after shoulder surgery.
Feliciano set Mets' franchise records by appearing in 86 games in 2008, 88 games in 2009 and 92 games in 2010.
"After I broke the record the first time, I just tried to put in my mind that I tried to break it again, and I did it," Feliciano said. "This past year I just put in my mind that if I could break it again I would do it. And I did it."
Feliciano, 34, doesn't think all the games will impact him going forward.
"Not at all," Feliciano said. "I work hard for every year. I don't let down and just do what I did last year. I want to keep proving I can do more than what I did last year."
Feliciano has been a late bloomer, which had a lot to do with ex-Mets pitching coach Rick Peterson instructing him to drop down to a low three-quarters delivery in 2004. Feliciano went to Japan in 2005 and when he returned to the Mets in 2006 he was a difference-maker against lefties.
"I had that in my mind," Feliciano said. "Before I dropped down, I was thinking, 'Next year I'm going to come a little more sidearm.' All of a sudden, they said, 'Let's drop you down.' They put in my mind that Buddy Groom and all those guys, they were average lefties, and then they dropped down and changed from average to one of the best. I started working out."
Lefties hit just .211 against him last season.

Burger fans can now calculate how many horses they could eat in a lifetime thanks to a cheeky online calculator.
Tests by the Food Safety Authority of Ireland found a sample of Tesco Everyday Value Beefburgers contained 29% horse meat.
The burgers have been removed from the shelves , while bosses insisted the burgers posed no health risk.
Traces of horse meat and DNA have also been found in Aldi, Lidl and Iceland beef products.
The online calculator works out how much horse you'd eat if you ate only burgers with a 29% gee gee content.
Tom Packer, the founder of MyDeals.com which created the calculator, said: "Based on the calculations we've trotted out, you would need to eat approximately 26,400 burgers to eat the equivalent of one horse, hardly the basis for a stable diet.
"We'd recommend people use our calculator soon, though, as it might not be around furlong."
To take part in the horseplay, gallop over to the Calculate How Many Horses You'll Eat in Lifetime website.
For other ways people have seen the funny side in the burger revelations, see our round-up of jokes and virals.

All our DJs are local and perform in the Pont area. To find a dj or to "rent-a-dj", you've come to the right website! Our local Disc Jockeys are the best because you can meet with them to go over your plans prior to your event. Some even have professional offices where they can meet directly with you. They can even do an in-home meeting, even perhaps meet with you directly at the facility or venue in which you are having your event. We'd like to say that we have the "best djs for a Wedding or other event" but we will leave that up to you!
Whether it's a friend or relative's birthday, Bar Mitzvah, Quinceanera, graduation, anniversary, house warming or it's simply the middle of the holiday season, there's always a good reason to throw a party, and the trick to throwing a great party is to book the right entertainment. Here are some terrific tips to help you book the very best entertainment for your next party:
Tip #1 – Know What You Are Looking For - What type of event will you be hosting? How big is your event space? Will there be a dance floor or stage? Will this be a quiet, more sophisticated affair or a lively, disco style affair? How many guests will be in attendance? What languages will they speak? What cultural differences will they have? Will you have games, contests, karaoke, slideshow or video presentations, or even a photo booth? Carefully consider as much information about the nature of your event and the guests you are inviting and draw up as thorough a list of what you will need as possible.
Tip #2 – Be Honest About What You Can Afford – Taking into account the entire list of things you're looking for, draw up an entertainment budget. If you are unsure how much each of the services you're looking for might cost, simply conduct a bit of online research and try to determine a ballpark estimate of each item on your list.
Tip #3 – Seek Out a Talented Professional DJ – Why a DJ over a live band? Because they can deliver most everything you need for a fraction of the cost of hiring a live band and renting from separate business for all of your extras like uplighting or photo booths. Begin your search online by Googling reputable talent agencies that specialize in promoting mobile DJs in your town. Look for agencies with professional looking websites, that have been in business the longest as they are more likely to represent the most well-respected, highly sought after DJs working today. You will also want to make sure the website is designed in a manner that makes it quick and easy for you to narrow your search by date, location and price point so you'll have a general idea of what you can expect to spend on the services you require.
Tip #4 – Select at Least Two Candidates to Meet for an Interview – Once you've found a couple of promising DJs that can deliver the services you need at a price point that fits your budget, arrange to meet them in person. Meeting them in person will allow you to better gauge their personality and expertise. Plus, you can determine that they are in fact able to fulfill all of your needs at an affordable price. Ask for a quote and make sure they provide you with a list of past clients so you can call them for references.
Party planning is stressful enough on its own. Don't let booking your entertainment add to your burden. Follow these tips and you're guaranteed to book the very best in party entertainment!

MetroPCS's bundled add-ons provide more functionality, with apps that handle Web e-mail and mobile instant messaging, contact backup, and voice commands. There's also MetroNavigator for directions, and the Loopt social network. The apps can be quite rudimentary, but at least they're available.
The VGA camera is quite low-quality--many budget phones include a 1.3-megapixel camera these days. It takes photos in three resolutions ranging from 640x480 pixels down to 128x96 pixels. There are four shooting modes, five white-balance settings, six color effects, a night mode, a self-timer, and three choices for image quality. If you snap the Contour closed without turning off the camera, you can use the external display for self-portraits.
When you're done taking a picture, you can opt to share it through a picture message or Bluetooth. There are also options to set it as a wallpaper or photo ID, or to rename or even erase the image. Internal storage is a small 55MB, and there's no expansion slot on the uber-entry-level Contour. The phone produced blurry and dull photos that were full of digital noise.
Thanks to the MetroWeb app, you can access the Internet. It's a simple WAP browser with a Google search bar, bookmarks, and a history function. It was slow with the phone's processor and 2.5G speeds. For example, it took over 20 seconds to fully load CNET's mobile-optimized site, but photos are so sketchy, you'd be better off if the browser skipped them entirely.
We tested the dual-band (CDMA 800/1900) Samsung Contour in San Francisco using the MetroPCS network. Although the phone is technically 3G-capable, MetroPCS only offers limited EV-DO coverage in the Dallas/Fort Worth and Detroit markets. Call quality wasn't bad overall, although voices sounded a little muffled and volume was a tad low. Volume was in the medium range, and fine for our conversations. Our callers reported OK clarity in some calls and some fuzziness in other calls, with some white background noise, but we had uninterrupted conversation.
Speakerphone volume was very loud on our end, with distortion at the highest levels for both us and the callers. Our friends on the other end of the line thought we sounded a bit distant.
Samsung Contour call quality sample
Listen now:
The Samsung Contour has a rated battery life of 3.3 hours of talk time and a standby time of 8.3 days. In our battery drain tests, it has a talk time of 3 hours and 27 minutes. According to FCC tests, the Contour has a digital SAR of 0.49 watt per kilogram.

Mayhem # 650403
About Me
I am NOT interested in doing any TFP assignments, unless it is a concept that makes me say "WOW". I have more than eight years of modeling experience. I will be happy to be involved in the artistic assignments but I am NOT interested in doing nudity. I am also picky about implied nudity and body painting shots but will do them if I feel that they are done tastefully and in elegant manner.
For four years I modeled extensively for the fashion department of Savannah College of Art and Design. During those years I consistently appeared on the runway for several designers in the yearly fashion show and was cover girl for the 2005 Fashion Show. Being a SCAD model also meant modeling for all photo shoots prior to shows and being available to model for graduate and under- graduate photography majors. Photographs of me are featured multiple times throughout the Vogue- style programs for the 2005, 2006, and 2007 Fashion shows.
My innovative style of modeling kept me in demand and my ability to modify my looks to suit the project always was a plus. I work hard at modeling and constantly strive to improve. I'm animated, energetic, friendly, extremely open minded, and optimistic. I joke around a lot. I have a great sense of humor to bring smile on people's faces. I am easy to work with and I listen to directions very well.
I DO NOT accept random friend requests, please INTRODUCE YOURSELF to me before you send a request.
Currently I'm REALLY looking to model Illustrations for Video Games, Fantasy, Sci- Fi, and Comics.
Most of my time is usually spent working on a costume, so I am rarely on Model Mayhem. I apologize now if you do not get a quick response from me. But I will reply as soon as I can. Thank you for your patience and understanding!
If you are interested in working together, please feel free to contact me.

The San Jose Earthquakes may have created the better chances, and may have had the better of the play in Wednesday night's showdown with the Colorado Rapids, but what they couldn't do was find a way to beat Clint Irwin.
The Rapids goalkeeper turned in a standout effort in goal, making seven saves, including several top-shelf stops, to help Colorado earn a 0-0 draw at Buck Shaw Stadium.
Chris Wondolowski drew out the first of Irwin's stunning saves when his 30th-minute header forced a left-handed reaction slap-away of a close-range header.
Alan Gordon saw a golden opportunity to beat Irwin go wasted in the 53rd minute when he pushed a clear look in front of goal wide of the right post.
Atiba Harris was the next to test Irwin with a dangerous chance, but Irwin was up to the task and stuck his right hand up just in time to deflect away a blistering shot at goal in the 62nd minute.
San Jose's best chance of the night came in the 88th minute when Wondolowski broke in on goal, but Irwin got enough of a piece of Wondolowski's shot to send it off the far post and preserve the shutout.
The draw gives the Rapids a 4-2-3 record on the season, while the point helped San Jose move ahead of Chivas USA, and out of the Western Conference basement at 1-3-4.
Here are the match highlights:
Here are the match highlights:
The last two seasons for Irwin have been nothing short of outstanding. A move to europe perhaps?
His reaction on Wondo's redirected header from about 3 yards out was nothing short of astounding- and @^#$#%! infuriating…
Blah blah blah national team blah blah cap him now

We went to stay at Plas-Y-Nant, Easter, Whit and Summer every year in the 50s. It was simply wonderful. Yes, I remember Auntie Lena and the whole range of little customs and practices we willingly engaged in. Not the least important of these was the evening 'down and up' - the group walk down the drive, along the road and up the bridle path. The bridle path was, of course, only wide enough for two to walk up in comfort - hence the exciting attraction of the evening ritual for a 15 year old who had never held a girl's hand before, never mind had a kiss. And now, both were possible. The most exciting thing in the world. We were really privileged to have had this opportunity to grow up romantically in a safe and caring environment. I wrote to at least one of these contacts for a long time - I wonder where 'Dallas Bagshaw' is now. She would have arrived in the 'Manchester coach', a much anticipated event on the Saturday afternoon. It was also my first experience of broad Lancastrian vowels, coming as we did from the genteel Wirral.
My two brothers, Michael and Howard, are still hale and hearty, and I'm sure have their own packed memories - and photo albums.
Apart from the Down & Up, we walked all over Snowdonia on excursions of varying difficulty and still have photographs to prove it. We also remember the days out we always had in Caernmarvon. Fish and chips. And don't forget Benlech Bay. Simply wonderful and as fresh now as then.
I'd love to hear from other people from those days.

Calgary Police Say There's No Easy Fix For Increase In Domestic Violence
Calgary Police Chief Roger Chaffin says there is no simple answer to the rising number of domestic violence cases in the city.
Earlier this month police released statistics that show there was a 10 per cent increase in cases in 2015 compared to the previous year and a big jump in domestic assaults that involved weapons.
Police have linked the trend to the pressures caused by the economic downturn.
Chaffin says more police will not solve the problem.
He says the solution is to work with the community to encourage people to seek help if they don't feel safe in their homes.
Chaffin says most cases of domestic violence in Calgary are not reported and helping those people is a big challenge. (CHQR, The Canadian Press)

Audicity is a feature-rich audio recording and editing tool. This program can be used to record audio from your PC, the Internet, radio and so on.
Once you import the file, you'll see the track displayed in the waveform. This graph gives you basic information about the sound parameters, such as the pitch, rate and loudness; although by default those are not as detailed as professional speech analyzers are offering.
On the top of the screen you can get the basic functions (Play, Record, Stop, Pause, Skip to start/end) and the basic tool palette that would help make editing easier and experiment with your own tracks.
The most important tool to start editing is the Selection Tool which highlights a particular area, so that you could play it separately and edit.
In addition to the most important functions like Cut, Copy, Paste, Delete, and track splitting features, Audicity offers a long list of useful effects which includes Repair, Change speed/tempo, Echo, Noise reduction, Fading, Cross fading and many other.
You can combine several tracks using Time Shift Tool changing the position of tracks relative to one another in time. This function is the most useful for those who are composing and need to combine lead and back vocal.
This tool can also convert audio files to WAV, AIFF, AU, FLAC formats.
It could be a bit difficult to work with this program for those who have never dealt with such utilities before. However, with a little time and a little practice you are sure to master it. To sum it up, Audicity is very helpful for audio files live recording and editing.
GK Superb song editor app.
Anton Mihaylov Excellent sound editor with a huge range of instruments. Use it for elementary types of pruning or lowering / raising the tone and so on. N. Especially, I like the new version. Lots of nice fixes. Just very well that it is free.
Been using this to edit my podcasts, having never really using any sound editor before.
It has just what I needed - the option for fine editing, combining a few sound files into one, fading in or out (for music intros/outros), and more.
My only little issue is that once you save a project, it will create a folder that takes much more space than the original file(s) size. It creates an internal project file which is a tiny file but also a folder of quite a few gigabytes that the project file itself won't work without. So you might wanna back up those folders.
But great great software for editing.

Day 10: Salt Lake City, Utah
... to a nature park situated in an extremely well off neighborhood called Ensign Peek. There was a small mountain there and if you climbed it you would get a full view of Salt Lake City and the Great Salt Lake so we climbed up! The site was great, you could see the capital building right in front of us, as well as the city and the lake. From here we took an Uber back to Firestone to pick up the van. We left the city and headed for Grand ...
Flowers and Dinosaurs!
... and smaller, with more intricate details (grooving); this is due to the animal population's drastic size shrinking. Big lizards had long been erased, but Mammoths, Giant Sloths (they had one just past the dinosaurs) Sabretooth Tigers, and a host of other animals whose cousins walk the earth now, were all food sources. Over time these animals were hunted out of existence, went through natural selection, or slowly evolved into smaller versions of themselves. There was also a ...

... Cowboy Outfitters in the Wild West (since 1876) and is still owned and run by the umpteenth generation of the Burns family. The cowboy clothes and boots on sale were impressive with a huge price tag to match. Still a great experience to see a true family-run shop with a fascinating history.

... at that. Campsite has about 20 pitches and only two or three other sets of campers -- a far cry from the crush of Yellowstone.
We started the day in Wyoming, had lunch in Idaho and are camping on an island just outside Salt Lake City in Utah. The city is enormous compared to anything we've seen since leaving Milwaukee, but on our island the city is just a glow behind us, and we're at peace -- except for the coyote.

The Waiting
I got quite good feedback from my last short story, so I'm going to have another go at it. I hope this isn't too obscure or odd!
'Come on, get off the computer. Here, your shirt, I just ironed it.'
I tear my gaze from the superficial, trivial events of Facebook to take the shirt. White. The Strokes is strangled out from the two tinny speakers on either side of the monitor. The office is cold (a converted garage with no insulation) making any internet endeavour a trial.The piano sags in the corner, yellowed keys still making promises of wonders it may no longer be able to keep. The mute pedal grinds and fails to deaden the harsh upper keys or the dull, groaning lower. The high A sticks unpredictably, making the flow of music over the high summits and low boggy valleys an unpredictable affair.
No time to play.
I pull off my t-shirt and button up the shirt, rolling the sleeves up to my elbows. Clicking out of every window on the screen, I pull on my leather jacket. Dark brown. I pause beside the piano, running a quick C major scale.
The A key sticks. The scale is interrupted.
Shaking my head in tired frustration, I shut the weary lid. There's a key in the lock. I leave it open, but pocket the key.
'Come on, come on, we're booked for 7.30.'
My mother is a natural born worrier. She's dressed in a long floral, shoulder strapped dress with a long black overcoat over it. My two little brothers lounge against the wall near the door. Will, the older of the two, is focussed on his phone. Jamie is likewise engrossed in the antics of his elder brother, much to Will's irritation.
'Oh Jesus, would you look at your shirt!' She exclaims. 'The collar, the collar!'
'Mom would you ever take it easy?' A new voice sighs.
My sister strides in, resplendent in a long red dress, gold sandals and a tight black jacket.
'Not bad, not bad Saz.' I grin. 'I don't feel really underdressed or anything now.'
'Oh come on, this dinner is (and it might sound a bit up my own arse) for me! I'm going away in a few days. Wouldn't you rather I looked good in your memory?'
'I can easily find a picture of where you looked like shit.'
'Fuck off.'
My grin fades as he enters the kitchen. An oppressive weight of tension bears down on my shoulders. I feel ready to act; do whatever is necessary. Saz stiffens. My mother's lips purse. She walks rigidly, her heels clacking loudly in the small space as she clean spotless surfaces. Will stares at his phone until I think he's trying to make it levitate. Jamie looks up when he senses the change in atmosphere, his eyes widening in anxiety as he fears another crack in his crumbling stability.
Clack, clack, clack.
Don't draw attention to yourself Jay. If it has to be this way, let me handle it kid.
Clack, clack, clack.
I stare at Jamie, my eyes widening in meaning. He blessedly catches the hint and snaps his gaze downwards on to Will's phone again.
Clack, clack, clack.
And so we stand here.
Clack, clack, clack.
I can feel his stare, boring into me. A drop of sweat slides down my spine.
Clack, clack, clack.
I drag my gaze upwards. Like a dog who's prey has finally started to flee, a look of triumph enters his eyes. His mouth twists into a sneer as he opens it-
The whisper of pumps on tiles interupts the stand-off.
My oldest sister. Shauna.
'Right, are we ready to go?' She says brightly, unaware of the swamp she dived into.
'Yes.' He replies softly, still staring at me from his pale blue eyes.
Turning, he walks out of the kitchen and out the front door to the car. We hear an engine rev in to life.
I sag slightly, my heartbeat begins to decrease. Scanning the room, I can see similar reactions from everyone else. Except Shauna.
'What? What's wrong?' She's wearing a blue top, a skirt and black tights with a loose black cardigan.
Silence. Everyone glances fleetingly in my direction.
'Nothing.' Will says eventually. 'Just the usual shit.'
Shauna's expression darkens. She strides up to me.
'What? What did he do?' She demands.
I look over her shoulder.
She grabs my chin and forces me to look her in the eye.
'Tell me. What-did-he-do?'
I gaze unflinchingly into her brown eyes, eyes so like our mother's.
She begins to frown, worry and concern now painting her features.
'Nothing.' I say calmly. 'Just the usual shit.'
She lets go of me, appearing unconvinced. It doesn't matter to me. I don't have to explain.
'Ok, we'd better get a move on now. We're going to be late.'
'Yes.' I reply.
Will retrieves his brown jacket. It's leather also, but not as dark as mine. Saz puts Jamie's sandy coloured jumper on him.
It's time to go.
Standing tall, I walk out of the kitchen and through the front door.
The rest of my family follows.
The car is a five seater, meaning that I end up with Jamie on my lap, Will on Saz's and Shauna in the middle. My mother is in the front passenger seat.
He's driving.
I pull the seat belt awkwardly around me and Jamie. I get frustrated and pull too hard. It catches and I have to let it go. I pull again. It catches. It clicks back in. I pull agonisingly slowly until I can put the end into the buckle.
We move off.
I rest my head on my little brother's back. He holds my hand tightly. Glancing over, I can see Shauna looking sightlessly out the window. Will is trying to text while Saz is looking over his shoulder.
Ever the protective big sister Saz is.
My mother is speaking with him up front. I am seated behind him. I can only see the edges of his black suit. His replies are soft, but have an undercurrent of dangerous strength like a sword sheathed in silk.
We arrive at the restaurant.
We are shown to our table. I sit in the corner. I can see everything this way. Him and my family take off their coats and jackets.
I keep mine on.
'What're you going to have for your starter?' Saz asks. 'I might have the bruschetta.'
'I think I'll have the soup.' I reply.
The waitress arrives. We place our orders.
'Ok so that's two garlic breads, three bruschettas and two soups?' She says.
'Yes. Thank you.' He says.
'We're very busy tonight, so I wont be able to take your orders for your main course until you have your starters. A large party is leaving soon, so that will free us up. It'll be brought to you as quickly as possible.'
He stares at her for a moment.
We all look on from behind a pane of glass.
The waitress' fitted smile begins to slip.
'That will be fine.' He says.
The waitress blinks and leaves.
'You didn't order us any drinks.' My mother says.
'I might when we recieve our starters.' He replies quietly.
I look over. His glass is half full of clear, transparent liquid. It looks like water.
The waitress returns and gives us our pitcher of water and bread basket. She glances at him and hurries away.
He sips at his drink without a grimace.
I pour myself a glass of water, recieving a few ice cubes. I pour a glass for Jamie, making sure he gets the lemon slice. He smiles at me.
Cameras are released to snap and flash unsuspecting victims. I rearrange my features for what I can only hope is a generic pose with Saz. I don't do natural very well.
'Here look!' She says, jamming the digital screen under my nose. 'You look handsome, doesn't he Shauna?'
'Ah he does.' She says smiling. 'That shirt really suits you. Doesn't it Will?'
I wince inwardly.
'Yeah I suppose' He says, glancing up briefly from his phone.
'You'd know they were the good looking pair in the family from looking at this wouldn't you mom?' Shauna says elbowing Mother.
'I love ye all the same, ye're all beautiful to me since the day I first laid eyes on ye.' Mother says patting Shauna's arm and giving Jamie a one-armed hug.
Oh great, it's going to be one of those family occasions.
'Take a photo of me and Jamie!' Shauna says.
I recieve the camera and hold it up, making the appropriate noises and movements.
I hand it back to a chorus of 'Awww'.
I lean against the wall. I take a drink of water.
He has a sip of his water. He doesn't grimace.
The starters arrive.
'Fuck me, I didn't think there'd be so much tomato on this thing.' Saz exclaimed.
'Era now, a bit of tomato never harmed anyone.' Shauna says with a grin.
'Ah yeah I know, but look at that!'
I recieve my soup. I taste it. It's good. A bit spicy, but good.
I cast a glance around the table, Will and Jamie are munching through their garlic bread, Mother and Shauna are lacing into their bruschetta with enthusiasm and He....
He's sipping his soup quietly.
'Is the soup good?' Mother asks me and Him.
'Uh yeah I suppose its....'
'Yes, it's very good.' He cuts through like a razor blade.
I look down at my bowl. It's empty.
Five minutes later, the waitress returns.
'Now here are the menus again.' She says with strained cheer.
Ok, I get that He's somewhat intimidating at times, but what's wrong with her? He's not that bad
She glances at me for a moment and looks away.
Wait, she looks nervous around me also. What did I do?
I order last this time, watching everyone else's orders closely.
'Ok that's two margherita pizzas, one lasagna, one spicy sausage with pasta, two chickens with pesto and...' She faltered. 'For you sir?'
Trying my best friendly expression, I consult the menu and reply 'The margherita pizza for me also.'
She writes my order down with a slight shake to her hand.
'A-and to drink?'
He looks at each of us in turn.
'Coke.' Will says into his screen.
'Coke!' Jamie chirps.
'Coke.' Saz says.
'White wine.' Shauna says to her menu.
'Red wine.' Mother says to Him.
'Orange.' I mutter.
'I will have orange also.' He says.
I shiver.
Time begins to drag. Frivolities become the staple of conversation. I only have to nod, or murmur assent. I begin to drift off into thought. I begin to think of that waitress.
What was wrong with her?
The drinks arrive. I can barely stomach my fizzy orange. Will and Jamie have no such inhibitions.
'Take it easy!' Mother exclaims.'Ye'll eat nothing if ye fill ye'reselves up with that.'
He takes a large gulp out of his orange.
The women sip their drinks.
The main course arrives.
'Here you are, one sausage and pasta and two pizzas. Hold on a moment, and I'll bring the rest of your food.' She says.
The sausage and pasta looked good. The pizzas did not.
Returning a moment later, she looks pale and nervous.
'A lasagna, two chicken and pesto and.... A-and I'm afraid there's been a problem with our pizza ovens sir.' She says to me.
'What do you mean?' I ask.
Jesus, I'm not holding a knife to her throat, what's the matter with her?
'I do not know the exact details, but after these two pizzas, the ovens switched off and can't be switched back on. I'm afraid' She falters. 'I'm afraid, you will have to order something else.'
I scrutinise her for a moment, trying to discern what's wrong with her.
Realising everyone is looking at me, I scan the table quickly. The pizzas look rubbery, the smell of the chicken is turning my stomach and I have lasagna at least once a week at home. That leaves.....
'The sausage and pasta please.' I say, returning the menu to her.
'No problem sir.' she replies with an obvious look of relief on her face.
I look around the table, wondering if anyone else has noticed her peculiar behaviour.
They all avert their eyes. No, not all.
He is looking at me, his glass of orange now full again, but his other drink empty.
Ok, that's it, I'm getting to the bottom of this.
Mumbling something about the toilet, I rise and follow the waitress to the door marked 'Toilets'. I'd noticed all the waitresses and waiters had gone back here, so the kitchen had to be there.
Sure enough after immediately turning left, the first door on the right has the sounds and smells of a busy kitchen. Across from it is marked 'Gents' and next to it 'Ladies'.
The waitress goes into the kitchen, but returns a moment later with another waitress. I dive around the corner. Luckily, her back is to me.
'Oh God, I need a fag after that, come on.' She says, pulling her friend after her.
They go to the end of the corridor and out, pushing a barrel of gas against the door to keep it open.
I sneak up to the door.
'-the matter with you?' the second waitress asks.
I hear heavy inhalation for several moments until a ragged reply.
'It's the table I'm serving. They creep the hell out of me.'
'What? Why? It's a family isn't it? Have they been rude?' She asks confusedly.
Have they threatened you or something?'
'Have they touched you or hit you?'
'No! No it's...' She hesitates. 'It's the two....Men I suppose you'd call them, although one couldn't be more than eighteen. The other's middle-aged and is dressed all in black.'
'But what have they done? What have they said?' The second waitress says, sounding impatient.
'They've ordered their food and have been polite, even when the younger man had to change his order over the pizza oven fuck up.'
'Then what is it? Spit it out!'
'It's....the way they look at me.' She says softly, unease edging her words.
'Wh-what?' the other replied sounding amused.
'Don't laugh! First it was just the older one when I told him about the backlog of orders, but when I asked the younger one (I think he's his son) his order he.... he had the exact same look in his eyes.' She shivers. It's twenty degrees celsius.
A look? Wait no.... No no no.
'What's so weird about this 'look'?' the other waitress presses.
'It's like' she takes an unsteady pull 'It's like they can look right into you, and can see how to take you apart. It's not like looking at a person!'
'Like a robot or something?' the other asks, all traces of hilarity having exited her voice.
Oh God.
'Yeah. Exactly like that. They don't look like they have feelings. Totally cold.'
'Wow that's....that's weird.'
No no not me too!
'And I'm stuck serving them until they go!'
'Ouch. I could serve them instead for you?'
'No no, George would notice and besides, I wouldn't push this on anyone. Not even Lucy. Bitch.' she adds venomously.
'And.... What about the rest of the family?'
'They're fine, a bit mental, but fine. That teenager... He's so.... It's just wrong to see that look in such a young person. It makes it worse that the father somehow.'
I recoil.
I can't be.... I can't be like him! Is this why I can't hold down friends? Why I can't get a job? Because I'm dead inside? Because I scare people?
Stumbling back to the toilets, I push in the door. I go to the sink, running the tap. Splashing water on my face, I look up slowly in to the mirror.
My face. My cheeks. My mouth. My nose. My eyes.
Why can't I see it? Why can't I see what is scaring people?
Then another thought strikes me.
My family. Have I been terrifying them also for years?
Running my hands through my hair, I try to find some form of answer.
I can't find anything.
Banging my fist on the sink, I stand upright and jerk the door open vioently...
To find the two waitresses in front of it.
Both flinch, one darting off with a quick 'Excuse me sir' and the other regarding me for a moment before hurrying away.
'Jesus what happened to you in the toilet?' Saz asked.
'What do you mean?'
'Your hair! It's standing up all over the place. Come here.'
I sit down again and allow Saz to flatten my hair. Everyone is in the middle of their food. Jamie has managed to get more tomato sauce on his face than in his mouth and Will is texting with one hand and chewing on a slice that looks as rubbery as I suspected. Over half of Saz's lasagna is gone. Mother is slicing and chewing her chicken delicately, unaware of the slight fleck of sauce on her cheek. Shauna has abandoned all decorum and is eating like it's her last meal.
He's quietly, methodically, cutting and chewing,
'Would you ever take off that jacket? You must be roasting! We're inside and besides, you look well in that shirt. That colour really suits you.' Saz says with a smile.
'I-I don't know...'
'Ah go on!'
'I suppose....'
I unzip my leather jacket, throwing it over the back of the chair.
My sausage and pasta arrived then.
'There you go sir.' the waitress said without looking at me. 'I apologise for the delay.'
'It's fine.' I say quietly.
She hurries away.
The sausage and pasta looks good.
It tastes good.
I take my time and finish just after the rest. There's nothing left on my plate.
'Right, well, that chicken was beautiful. Did you all enjoy your food?' Mother asks.
'Yeah.' my siblings chorus.
'Well that's good then, we just need the bill now.' She turns to me. 'Would you mind going up to the counter and asking for it?'
Great, more waitresses to terrorize.
'I don't think-'
A single word, softly spoken, yet my spine stiffens. His eyes fix me to the spot.
I rise and walk reluctantly to the counter. My favourite waitresses are there.
Their eyes widen at my approach.
'Yes s-sir?' the second one stutters.
'Could I have the bill for table five please?'
'Yes of course, no problem.' she replies, flustered.
The other is studying me. She flinches when I meet her eyes.
I take the small leather book and return.
'Here.' I place the book on the table.
The bill is paid for, we put on our jackets and we leave.
We load in to the car again. We drive home in silence.
I return to the office, tossing my jacket on the office swivel chair. I lift the piano lid. The keys look sickly. I try to play. The A key sticks again.
How can one key affect so much? One problem, causes a ripple effect.
I catch my gaze in the varnished reflection. I close the lid and walk to the sitting room. Jamie and Will have gone to bed. Saz, Shauna and Mother have changed into pajamas. He's still in his suit, with a large glass of amber liquid in his hand.
'Piano still giving you trouble?' Shauna asks.
'Yeah, that high A key is really important, I use it nearly everytime I play. '
'We'll get it fixed.' Mother says reassuringly.
'We tried that before. It was back to the way it was before within two weeks.'
'We'll try someone different this time.' she replies calmly.
Why won't she look at me?
I look around the room. It's so tense. It's like troops waiting before a battle.
The Waiting is always the worst by all accounts.
He stirrs.
A contemptuous expression twists his face. Dead eyes stand like grey glass statues over it.
The Waiting ends. The war begins.
We fight valiantly. We fight bravely. But fighting with fists against slings and arrows will leave only one result. A full and decisive rout.
After an unbearable amount of time, he leaves to drink water with his own kind.
Or at least what he tells Jamie is water.
He leaves me with my broken family.
And I'm not crying.
Not one tear to shed, not one bubbling emotion to spill over.
I return to the office the next day and sit at the piano stool. I haven't changed my clothes since the night before. I run through a few pieces.
The door opens behind me.
It's Him.
He is still in his black suit.
'That doesn't sound bad.' he says, leaning against the worn upright.
I look up slowly.
'The A key ruins everything.'
'I find it hard to believe that one key could destroy everything.'
'Sometimes the smallest thing can do that.' I reply.
He frowns for a moment.
Then he looks me up and down.
'That shirt suits you. Black is really your colour.' he says with a shadow of a smile.
No not a smile. A sneer.
'You should wear it more often. It suits you even better than it suits me.' he continues.
But do I suit it?

PURPOSE: Roflumilast, an oral, selective phosphodiesterase 4 inhibitor, reduces exacerbation rates and improves lung function in COPD patients. Inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) are commonly used to manage COPD, particularly among individuals at risk for exacerbations. This post-hoc analysis studied the effects of roflumilast vs placebo in COPD patients with or without concomitant ICS treatment.
METHODS: This pooled, post-hoc analysis of two replicate, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled studies (M2-111 and M2-112) compared oral roflumilast 500μg QD with placebo over 52 weeks. Stable dose ICS use was permitted. Lung function outcomes and exacerbation rates were examined.
RESULTS: Of 2686 randomized patients, 1622 used concomitant ICS (n=809 roflumilast and n=813 placebo) and 1064 did not (n=518 and n=546, respectively). Among patients receiving concomitant ICS, 65% had severe disease vs 68% without ICS; 28% with ICS vs 21% without ICS had very severe COPD. For the overall population, pre-bronchodilator and post-bronchodilator FEV1 improved (mean±SE) with roflumilast compared to placebo by 51±7 mL (p<0.0001) and 53±8 mL (p<0.0001) and exacerbations were decreased by 14.3% (p=0.026). With concomitant ICS use, pre-bronchodilator FEV1 (53±9 mL; p<0.0001) and post-bronchodilator FEV1 (54±9 mL; p<0.0001) improved with roflumilast vs placebo. Without concomitant ICS use, pre-bronchodilator FEV1 (49±13 mL; p=0.0002) and post-bronchodilator FEV1 (53±13 mL; p<0.0001) improved with roflumilast compared to placebo. Roflumilast+ICS reduced the moderate/severe exacerbation rate vs placebo+ICS (rate ratio 0.72 vs 0.89; -18.8%; p=0.014); the percentage of patients experiencing an exacerbation was numerically lower with roflumilast+ICS vs placebo+ICS (36% vs 42%). Without concomitant ICS, the exacerbation rate (roflumilast 0.42; placebo 0.46; -7.7%; p=0.55) was not affected by roflumilast; the percentage of patients experiencing an exacerbation was numerically lower with roflumilast vs placebo (23% vs 27%).
CONCLUSION: Roflumilast was effective at improving lung function independent of concomitant ICS use and reduced exacerbation rates in patients taking concomitant ICS, who may be recognized by clinicians as more likely to experience exacerbations.
CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS: Roflumilast improves lung function, reduces the rate of exacerbations, and can have an additive effect in patients receiving concomitant ICS.
