In carrying out the delivery of newspapers and the like to residences, it is common practice to do so from a vehicle. It is also common practice for the newspaper publisher to provide a tube for receiving the newspaper, which tube is adapted to be attached to a post located beside the street where it is accessible from the vehicle. Such well-known rceptacles have a number of deficiencies, however, not the least of which is the fact that they are fairly expensive. They are also bulky, which means that it is difficult to mail them to a customer. Furthermore, there is a tendency for the wind to blow the newspaper out of the receptacle and also the receptacle does not adapt itself readily to variations in size of the newspaper. These and other difficulties experienced with the prior art devices have been obviated in a novel manner by the present invention.
It is, therefore, an outstanding object of the invention to provide a periodical holder which may be fabricated in substantially one piece by the injection molding process from an elastomer plastic.
Another object of this invention is the provision of a periodical holder which is simple in construction, which is inexpensive to manufacture, and which is capable of a long life of useful service with a minimum of maintenance.
A further object of the present invention is the provision of a periodical holder which is capable of operation under outdoor conditions with a minimum of deterioration due to exposure to the weather.
It is another object of the instant invention to provide a periodical holder which can be placed adjacent the highway for receiving periodicals delivered by automobile, the holder being capable of receiving and holding the journal easily from the automobile, and serving to hold the periodical tightly irrespective of size.
A still further object of the invention is the provision of a periodical holder being adapted to be attached to a post in an outdoor location from which the periodical cannot be dislodged readily by the wind.
It is a further object of the invention to provide a holder for receiving a delivered periodical such as a rolled newspaper, which holder does not require painting to maintain its pleasing appearance, in which the article can be easily inserted by the person delivering it and from which it can be easily removed by the person to whom it is delivered.
It is a still further object of the present invention to provide a holder for rolled newspapers or the like which is not subject to vandalism or damage by the insertion of firecrackers or the like, and which does not protrude from its supporting mount so as to be liable to damage by being struck by passing vehicles and the like.
With these and other objects in view, as will be apparent to those skilled in the art, the invention resides in the combination of parts set forth in the specification and covered by the claims appended hereto.
In general, the invention consists of a periodical holder having a base which is adapted to be attached to a support and a ring extending laterally from the base. A diaphragm extends across the ring, which diaphragm is formed of a flexible material and has cuts extending from a generally central point to the periphery to divide the diaphragm into a series of angular flexible fingers.
More specifically, the base ring and diaphgram are integrally formed of an elastomer plastic. The cuts originate in a circular aperture formed in the center of the diaphragm and radiate outwardly to terminate in semi-circular apertures formed at the outer end of each cut adjacent the ring. The base is formed of a generally trapezoidal-shaped plate extending from the center plane of the ring outwardly thereof and is provided with two substantially-spaced apertures for insertion of bands to facilitate mounting it on a post.
The character of the invention, however, may be best understood by reference to one of its structural forms, as illustrated by the accompanying drawings, in which:
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a periodical holder embodying the principles of the present invention,
FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the holder taken from the rear and showing a periodical in place,
FIG. 3 is an enlarged perspective view of the holder,
FIG. 4 is a front elevational view of the holder,
FIG. 5 is a side elevational view of the invention, and
FIG. 6 is a horizontal sectional view of the holder taken on the line VI--VI of FIG. 4.
Referring first to FIG. 1, wherein are best shown the general features of the invention, the periodical holder, indicated generally by the reference numeral 10, is shown as attached to a support 11. In the illustration the support is shown as a post at the top of which is mounted in a mail box.
In FIG. 2 the holder 10 is shown mounted on the support 11 and carrying a wrapped-up newspaper.
FIGS. 3-6 show the details of the invention. The periodical holder 10 has a base 12 which is adapted to be attached to the support. Fastened to the base is a ring 13 which extends laterally therefrom. A diaphragm 14 extends across the ring in the center plane thereof. The diaphragm is formed of flexible material and is provided with cuts 15 extending from its center to its periphery adjacent the inner surface of the ring to divide the diaphragm into a plurality of angular fingers 16.
The base 12 is provided with two-spaced apertures 17 and 18 through which are passed straps 19 and 21, respectively, adapted to extend around a post and hold the apparatus in place.
The base 12 is also provided with abutments 22 and 23 which extend in opposite directions and are provided adjacent their ends with apertures 24 and 25, respectively, which receive screws 26 and 27 for fastening the apparatus to a wooden post or the like.
As is evident in the drawings, the base 12, the ring 14, and the diaphragm 15 are integrally formed of an elastomer plastic, such as polyvinyl chloride by the injection molding process. The ring 13 is circular and is provided with an inner surface 28 and an outer surface 29. The diaphragm 14 is circular and is connected at its outer periphery 31 to the inner surface 27 of the ring. A circular aperture 32 extends through the diaphragm. Each of the cuts 15 terminates at its end in this aperture and radiates outwardly therefrom. At the outer end of each of the cuts 15 is located an aperture 33. Each of the apertures 33 is of generally semi-circular form with the arc extending away from the inner surface 28 of the ring. In the preferred embodiment, the cuts 15 divide the diaphragm into eight fingers, so that the angle subtended by two adjacent cuts is 45�.
The base 12 is in the form of a flange extending from the ring 13 and is thinner than the ring, as is best shown in FIG. 5. The flange is bounded by two-opposite straight edges 34 and 35 which extend tangentially from the outer periphery or surface 29 of the ring (which surface is generally cylindrical in form). The edges 34 and 35 are joined by a third straight edge 36 which is spaced from the ring. The abutments 22 and 23 are provided with outer surfaces 37 and 38 which lie in the same plane as the said third edge 36. Each of the abutments is provided with an inner surface 39 and 41 (see FIG. 6), it extends from its outer end at an acute angle to its corresponding outer surface to its inner end at the outer surface of the ring.
The operation of the invention will now be readily understood in view of the above description. First of all, the holder 10 is usually connected to a post adjacent the street where the person delivering the newspaper or other periodical can deliver without leaving his vehicle. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the bands 19 and 21 are used in conjunction with the apertures 17 and 18 in the base 12 to attach it to a post which, in this case, is the supporting post for a conventional mail box. Under some circumstances, it may be desirable to use the screws 27 and 28 through the abutments 22 and 23 to support the device on the wooden surface, such as the side of a house or some object where the use of the bands is not desirable or possible. The holder is then in position for use and, when a rolled-up newspaper has been inserted, it has the appearance shown in FIG. 2. Insertion of the periodical presses the fingers 16 out of the normal plane of the diaphagm. Normally, the subscriber to the journal would remove the journal from the side opposite the one in which the journal was inserted. The clearance provided at the inner end of the fingers by the central aperture 32 assist the fingers in bending outwardly from the central plane. Additionally, it obviates the likelihood of the inner ends of the fingers curling permanently and effecting the appearance as well as the operability of the device, which would be true, if the ends of the fingers were perfectly sharp. The provision of the apertures 33 at the outer ends of the cuts 15 serves a dual purpose. First of all, it allows the fingers to bend more easily out of the central plane of the ring. Secondly, it prevents the occurrence of localized high stresses at sharp corners due to the bending movement.
The advantages of the above invention can now be readily appreciated. Because the holder is integrally formed of an elastomer plastic, it is not subject to deterioration by the weather. It is capable of being manufactured inexpensively and there is no need to paint or otherwise maintain it. It is particularly free of susceptibility to damage, especially the damage caused by vandals. It is easily installed, it is rugged in construction, and it provides the advantage of easy accessibility by the delievery personel, so that the time spent at each stop is reduced. The nature of the base on which the ring and diaphragm are mounted allows the holder to be attached to a variety of support surfaces.
It is obvious that minor changes may be made in the form and construction of the invention without departing from the material spirit thereof. It is not, however, desired to confine the invention to the exact form herein shown and described, but it is desired to include all such as properly come within the scope claimed.

The first thing that crossed my mind when I saw this photo besides "This is the best behind the scenes photo in history!" is "When did Sammy Davis Jr. hang out with the likes of Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing?!"
Well, it was apparently on the set of 1970's One More Time, a film directed by Jerry Lewis and reuniting Davis and Peter Lawford again after their 1968 film Salt and Pepper. By watching the trailer below it definitely seems like the entire cast and crew downed at least 15 double espressos before they filmed each scene.

Fed up with his father frustrating his love life when Fred shatters a tender romantic liason between him and his latest date, Darleen (Judyann Elder), Lamont strikes out on his own and rents a swingin' bachelor pad. in downtown L.A., Lamont sits back and waits for a crowd of young ladies to beat a path to his door. But, as things turn out, Lamont winds up disappointed, when the landlady, who has a strict policy of "no guests of the opposite sex after 11 P.M.", also frustrates another hard-fixed date with Darleen, as he winds up returning to the junkyard, eating humble pie!
Note: Lynn Hamilton, who would later in the season join the cast as Fred's date and future fiancee, Donna Harris, makes her first appearance on the series as Lamont's landlady in the episode.

Giving Clinique Another Try
Until I walked into the CCO a few months back and saw a little set of products for $7.50. Naturally, I had to grab it, because who can resist that kind of bargain? Now, I only picked it up because I had been wanting to try All About Eyes, which was included in the set. It also came with a mascara, and one of the makeup removers, but these products didn't really stand out. I am, however actually liking All About Eyes and Superdefense moisturizer. I'm the kind of person who's really bad at keeping up with skincare, but these products are so easy. The eye cream is smooth and has that silicone-y feel, and keeps my under-eye area looking fresh as a daisy, so I'm loving it. The moisturizer looks thick in the jar but is actually super thin and goes a very long way. It has been keeping my face moisturized through this awful summer heat and a terrible sunburn, so it gets a gold star. Overall, maybe Clinique might not be all that bad, I mean these haven't broken me out and I've been using them for a few months now!
What brands have you sworn off of? And are you interested in trying again?

Suzlon Energy Ltd launched a $300 million (Rs1,230 crore) zero-coupon five-year foreign currency convertible bond (FCCB) that will be listed in Singapore to raise money for a southern Indian expansion, prompting some analysts tracking the stock to downgrade it on account of the consequent equity dilution and an anticipated dip in the company's performance.
According to a Suzlon spokesperson, the bond issue will lead to a 2.5% dilution in the company's equity. Suzlon is engaged in a prolonged bidding war with Areva SA for German wind energy company Repower Systems AG; its last bid was $1.65 billion.
The five-year bonds are convertible at Rs1,800 per share, close to a 60% premium over the average price of Rs1,127.90 on the Bombay Stock Exchange on 16 May. The yield to maturity on the bonds is 7.60%, lower than the 8% interest rate at which the company was planning to raise debt. On Thursday, the Suzlon share closed at Rs1,135.30, up 0.05% from its previous close.
Following the announcement of the bond issue, several brokerages revised the stock's target price downward. Mumbai-based brokerage ASK Securities downgraded the target price for the stock to Rs1,380 from its recommendation of Rs1,480, issued six weeks ago. CLSA said that the stock was expected to underperform the market. Emkay, another brokerage, said it was planning to revise its recommendation to neutral.
However, Edelweiss Securities had a different view. It expects a 20% growth in Suzlon Energy's stock price. Shriram Iyer, head of research at Edelweiss, said, "We foresee a 30% earnings growth over the next couple of years and a 20% upside in the stock, despite lower margins and disappointing results for last year." Suzlon Energy reported a 3.36% decline in its net profit for the quarter ended 31 March 2007.
In its report, ASK said the effect of the Repower acquisition "would burden Suzlon's balance sheet" and bring down earnings in the short to medium term. It has revised its earnings estimate for next year by 9% (down) to Rs52.50 per share. Mehul Mukati, energy analyst at brokerage Emkay, said he was revising the recommendation on the stock from 'buy' to 'neutral', given the overall negative impact of the bond issue as well as the Repower buyout.
"Although Repower in the long run will provide good synergies, in the short term it will put pressure on Suzlon's balance sheet which is already fully leveraged. Though the company will save about Rs98 crore on interest cost because of the bond issue, the overall impact of equity dilution would be negative and we expect earnings per share would go down by Rs2-3," he added.
Analysts who did not wish to be named said the equity dilution could have been prompted by concerns regarding the level of Suzlon's debt. Following the bond issue, Suzlon's debt-equity ratio will come down marginally.
The company's spokesperson said the money being raised would fund Suzlon Energy's plans to set up additional manufacturing capacity at Mangalore and Coimbatore. The estimated cost of these plants is Rs3,500 crore. He maintained that the overall impact on earnings would remain positive due to the savings on interest costs. Analysts, however, pointed out that Tulsi Tanti, chairman and managing director of Suzlon Energy, had recently said the money for these plans had already been tied up.

Bollywood stars are now geared up to sell dreams in an all new form of mobile games based on their films and lives. Indian game developers are rushing to sign Bollywood stars for video games viewed by some as the next big earner in an entertainment market driven by the Indan youth crazy about movies.
With the fate of a movies getting more and more unpredictable at the box office, film makers today rely more on earnings that come from sources other than the sale of the movie proper. Infact, a recent study conducted by an Indian industry body and consultancy PricewaterhouseCoopers revealed that only 40% of a Bollywood film's earnings come from the box office, the rest coming from music, DVD and mobile phone ring-tone sales.
In such a scenario, it is expected the nascent industry of Bollywood related mobile game downloads would make a major contribution to non-box office earnings.
In 2006, about two dozen Bollywood films were accompanied by video games such as "Don" -- modelled on a movie of the same name about an ultracool gangster played by superstar Shahrukh Khan -- compared with just three in the year 2005.Many more Bollywood films are expected to tie up with gaming companies in 2007.
"The Indian market is poised for a gaming explosion," said Rajesh Sawhney, head of Reliance Entertainment, a division of India's biggest business house, which launched a gaming company called Zapak in November.
Gaming based on Bollywood films and Bollywood personalities is already estimated to be worth around Rs100 million, with companies planning to invest heavily in the sector over the next few years.
It therefore comes as no surprise that when it came to choosing a brand ambassador, Reliance Entertainment's Zapak picked Bollywood action hero Salman Khan.Several games will star the muscular Khan, who promised at the launch to help develop "wacky" concepts to keep his fans happy.Siren Sameera Reddy, also known as Bollywood's J. Lo and famous more for her shimmying than her acting, is a sword-wielding streetfighter in a game developed by Jump and named after her.
Even 64-year-old movie legend Amitabh Bachchan has a game based on his film "Baabul" about widow remarriage. Anywhere else his age and the subject matter would be a no-no for a videogame concept -- but not in Bollywood-crazy India.
"We are forever looking for new games and the best way to find new games is Bollywood films," said Neeraj Roy, head of the Hungama Mobile portal.Many Bollywood video games are designed for mobile phones, not surprising in a country where cellphones, with more than 100 million subscribers, outnumber personal computers by more than ten to one.
Although the company behind the Bachchan game, leading mobile portal mauj.com, is charging Rs50 for the game download, many others are free for the moment.The games also work as a marketing tool for films, at little cost to producers, with game developers paying for the rights to develop and promote games based on particular movies."As many new films are made, there are new games on them. So it is a win-win situation for us, the Bollywood companies and gamers at large," said Hungama Mobile's Roy.

If you have a lot of tools or supplies you transfer around in the bed of your truck and you worry about leaving everything exposed all of the time, it's time to get a truck cap. If you aren't thrilled with the way that they look or you have never considered one in the past, there are a lot of advantages to using one. The cap is going to hold items in the back of the truck so you don't have to worry about tying or weighing them down and it's going to keep all of the items dry and clean because the items are sheltered from rain, dust, dirt, and more.

All metal has a vulnerability to the elements. Metal can rust and holes can develop. The more that the metal is exposed to the hard elements and substances that can damage it, the quicker the damage can happen. The metal under your car gets exposed to all kinds of nasty things. When it rains, water gets thrown up to sit in the works. The water, added to the heat of your engine and exhaust, can make rust form faster.

Seeds of Trust
By Mary Kleinsmith
"Your saying that time just disappeared. Time can't just disappear, it's a universal invariant!" Scully was obviously frustrated.
They both looked as the car started of its own accord.
"Not in this zip code."
"We're getting drenched," Agent Scully said as she felt a torrent flow down her back. "Let's get back to the hotel."
"You don't believe me, do you?" Mulder said, but it sounded more confrontational than hurt or angry. She waited until they were inside the car to address his question.
"I'll believe it when we have more evidence to back it up. We need to have the vehicle's systems checked out, see if there's a valid mechanical reason for it to have behaved the way it did."
"And if they don't find anything?" Mulder questioned again as he put the car into gear and proceeded down the road. "Will you believe then?"
Mulder was studying her closely, she could tell, despite the dimness of the car's interior. What could she say that wouldn't come back to haunt her later?
"Let's just wait and see what happens. You never know what evidence can develop by then."
They rode in silence for a time, and were almost to the motel when Mulder took a closer look at his new partner. "Your teeth are chattering - you must be freezing. I have a blanket in the trunk; do you want me to get it for you?"
"Thank you, but it's really not necessary. At this point, I think getting to the motel is just as good a choice. We'll be there by the time you could get it. What are you doing with a blanket in the trunk of a rental car, anyway?"
"Past experience has taught me to be prepared. You know, a blanket, orange paint, first aid kit, yada, yada, yada."
"Ah. A boy scout."
"No, an ex-Bureau profiler," he corrected as he pulled the car in front of her door. He'd have to go a few extra yards in the downpour, but he wanted to keep her as dry as he could. His mother did manage to teach him to be a gentlemen, despite everything.
"Why don't you take my coat," he offered, beginning to shed it. "You can put it over your head to keep you dry."
"Thanks for the offer, but I'm afraid there's nothing that's going to keep me dry, and since I couldn't get any more wet . . ."
"But . . ."
"Look, Mulder. I appreciate the thought. But I'm a grown woman, an agent, and a doctor, not your girlfriend. You don't have to take care of me. I've been doing that myself for quite some time now."
"Sorry," Mulder apologized, looking chagrined. "It's been awhile since I had either a partner or a friend of the female persuasion. I'll try not to be so machiavellian from now on."
"Just back me up when I need it, and we'll do fine, don't worry," she said, turning for the door handle. "You ready to make a run for it?"
"As ready as you are, Agent Scully," he said, smiling. Despite everything, he was growing to like this woman. As a partner only, of course.
They made a mad dash for their respective doors, getting little or no protection from the slight overhang the motel provided. Once inside, Scully couldn't wait to get out of the sopping clothes which seemed determined to suction to her body in all the most uncomfortable places.
She made her way to the bathroom, quickly stripping off each layer of clothing while trying to keep the water from getting on anything that was currently dry. Her jacket found a place on the hook behind the door, with her remaining clothes being dumped into the sink where she planned to wring them out later.
Luckily, the motel was very conscientious about keeping its patrons in towels, and a big, warm, fuzzy one felt comforting and warm on her cold skin. She wrapped it about herself, choosing a second, smaller towel to dry her disheveled hair after struggling to pull out the ponytail. If she continued with the X-Files and Mulder, she'd have to think about a shorter, easier-to-manage cut, she thought to herself.
Once she was finally no longer dripping, she made her way to her suitcase, finding a clean and dry pair of underwear and bra that she slid into. Being the hour it was, it would probably have been more practical if she'd just put on her pajamas, but they never seemed to be as warm and comforting against her skin as the inside of her robe, which she donned next before sitting in front of her laptop to put some of her thoughts on paper.
Working with Fox Mulder was definitely proving to be interesting, if nothing else. Despite other's assumptions that he was just a nutcase who was half a bubble off, she found him a paradox. He could make the most unbelievable premises sound credible, and the most unlikely theories seem perfectly reasonable. But she wasn't a believer just yet. Even things that seem fantastic have to be rooted in science. However, she was more than aware that, as much as science had uncovered in the last several hundred centuries, they had just that much more to learn. Separating the undiscovered science from the fantasy was going to be where she and Mulder would have their biggest tests, she felt.
Needing to get all these thoughts out of her head before beginning her official report, she typed a bit in her personal journal before moving on. There was a great deal to be said about her new partner, and she wished she'd had the advance notice to be able to read his file as acutely and thoroughly as he'd apparently read hers. He actually read my thesis, she thought, amazed.
Scully remembered turning in that paper. The teacher had respected it, given her a good grade, but it had not been a big hit with the other students and the TA's who'd read it. Either they seemed to be so daunted by the idea of questioning Einstein that they laughed it off, or the paper went totally over their heads and they had no idea what they were reading, she presumed. She knew her facts were straight, her hypotheses fully feasible.
The fact that Mulder had read, understood, and accepted her paper was a shock. She'd known from his reputation that he was no empty-headed jock, but it was a pleasant surprise to find out that his intelligence was far and above his strongest feature - despite the fact, she admitted to herself, embarrassed, that he was a very handsome man.
She typed this all in her journal, added a password - which she'd never done before, nor had felt the need to - and closed the file. Not that she thought Mulder would read her private thoughts if he were to stumble onto her computer, but there's no reason to leave it to chance. He could stumble over it looking for another file, and the last thing she wanted was for her partner of three days to read what she thought of him - positive OR negative.
Scully had only typed a page or two of her report before the power went out. "Great!" she said, irritated, as she realized that most of what she'd written had gone unsaved. She'd have to redo it when and if the power came back on again. What else could go wrong today?
Figuring there was nothing else to do tonight, she made her way to the bed in the darkness, using her sense of touch to turn down the bed and get ready to climb under the covers. She reached for the knot she'd put in her robe's belt when there was a tapping at her door. Whoever was out there must have been getting soaked, she thought.
She rushed to open the door, revealing her new partner holding a candle in his left hand as he lit it with his right. "I thought you might need one of these," Mulder said, handing the pillar of wax to Scully.
"You carry candles with you on business trips?" she asked, astonished. The surprises just kept coming with this man.
"No, I carry a flashlight. Which had just enough battery life left in it to make it to the registration desk. The night clerk had these on hand. I guess it happens quite often 'in this neck of the woods.'" He did his best to imitate the local dialect as he pulled a second candle from his pocket and lit it as well. "So what were you working on when the lights went out?"
"My report, naturally. Some day I'm going to start believing them when they say 'save often.'" She chuckled grimly.
"Lost it all, huh?"
"Not all, but a good deal of it."
"There are benefits to a good old pad of paper and a pen."
"Except then I'd have to try to read my own handwriting later. You know what they say about doctors . . ."
"Oh, yeah." The look on his face told her that he found it easy to forget that this little redhead was a physician. They fell silent, Mulder standing uncomfortably in her doorway. Finally, he scuffed his toe. "I guess I'll get back to my room. Call or knock on the wall if you need anything, okay?"
"Thanks, Mulder," she said, trying to convey her sincerity.
"No problem. I'll see you in the morning."
She felt bad, sending him back out into the rain, but knew that she was in no position to get caught in a motel room in the dark with her partner of less than a week, even if it was totally innocent. Women had to tread lightly in the Bureau, despite the claims that it was "equal opportunity," and past mistakes on her part didn't help matters.
Now that she had a little light, a hot bath sounded particularly nice, so she took her candle and went into the bathroom. Shedding her robe, she felt something on her skin near the line of her underwear. Bumps . . . and they'd supposedly "lost" nine minutes . . .
Grabbing her robe, she made a bee-line for her partner's room.
"C'mon, let's get out of here."
"Where are we going?"
"We're going to pay a visit to Billy Miles."
"I am so sick of being wet," Mulder said as he slid into the driver's seat. Beside him, Scully was fastening her seat belt.
"Tell me about it."
He drove carefully, while taking surreptitious glances at the woman beside him as she wrung as much water as she could from her pony tail. He couldn't believe it. He'd fully expected his skeptical spy to be running for the hills by this point, but she seemed as dedicated to this case as he was. She also wasn't as uncompromising as he'd dreamed she'd be, willing to entertain the fantastic despite her disbelief, on the chance that it would solve the case. It was clear that, with Dana Scully, the case - and the victims - came first.
The previous night, he hadn't known what had gotten into him, revealing so much of himself to this person he hardly knew. It was a trust he didn't normally extend to people he'd known for years, let alone for a few days. But, deep down inside, he trusted her, without being able to identify exactly why.
Perhaps it was her own trust in him that made him realize that this was the beginning of something special. He'd be lying if he said he wasn't shocked for half a second when she'd dropped her bathrobe in his room, revealing a practical yet pretty set of underclothes. How much trust would it take for a woman to do that, he wondered, realizing that she assuredly must have heard all the rumors. "Mulder's insane." "He's not playing with a full deck." "He's spooky, and so is anybody who associates with him."
He imagined the reaction of her teachers, coworkers, superiors even, when they heard that she'd accepted the assignment with him.
"So, what do you think?" He said, shaking free of the wandering thoughts.
"About the case?" she asked.
"No, about your new assignment. Think you'll stay longer than it takes to write up the report on the first case?"
"Mulder, I'll be the first to admit that there are things that can't be explained using the knowledge we currently have. I can't imagine a better place to be to learn."
"Meaning you believe?" he asked, shocked.
"Meaning that I'm going to need more information before I do. But I'm not discounting anything until I have proof, either way."
Mulder grew serious, despite his trust in her. "You know what I said last night about your being part of their agenda?"
"Yes, but I'm not . . ."
"You are, or you're supposed to be, at least. Whether you want to be or not. They want you to debunk the Work, and expect you to play the dutiful agent and do as you're told. And if you don't, they're not going to be happy with you, you know that, right?"
"I grew up with two brothers and an older sister. I stopped letting people bully me a long time ago," Scully said. "I'm going to report on the truth - no more, and no less."
"Meaning that you're going to make me work for every bit," Mulder smiled, feeling comfortable with this small woman.
"Hard work is good for the soul, Mulder. Didn't your parents ever tell you that?"
"I did hear that somewhere," he admitted with a slight grin, thinking how it was definitely not from his silent and sullen mother or his frequently-intoxicated father. He didn't know that he'd let this show until she laid a comforting hand on his arm.
"I'm sorry, Mulder. Didn't mean to dredge up bad memories."
"Scully, if we're going to work together, you have to stop worrying that what you say every second will remind me of the difficulties in my life. Just be yourself, and indulge me a little if I seem moody. Remember, I'm not used to working with a partner."
"I didn't get a long look, but your file said you'd had one before."
"Okay, I'll restate it. I'm not used to working with a partner who is going to make me work to justify my insights."
"Well, you'd better get used to it, because I intend to stay on this assignment for a long, long time." She paused, smiling at Mulder. "And when I get home, I'm going shopping for a better raincoat!"
They laughed together, enjoying the camaraderie for the first time. He didn't know if it would last, but for now, he felt like he was in a good place, and he hoped she felt the same.
The End . . . and The Beginning

Gainsborough's Landscapes : Themes and Variations
'The overwhelming impression is one of serenity and tranquillity, drama subdued and beauty evoked. Here are huge and graceful trees, cloud-filled milky skies, and clumps of humans, travelling peasants who are all dependent on their livestock for their livelihood' - The Arts Desk
Gainsborough's Landscapes: Themes and Variations is the companion book to an exhibition at Bath's Holburne Museum - the first exhibition in fifty years devoted solely to the artist's landscape paintings and drawings.
The richly illustrated volume brings together remarkable works from public and private collections, many of them little known and some not previously exhibited. It shows the evolution of his style from early naturalistic landscapes in the Dutch manner to dramatic and imaginary scenery. The paintings are examined by looking at 'themes and variations' within his landscape oeuvre.
