To cancel Fathers Day plans because Dh got so pissed last night?(237 Posts)
Dh went out with his mates last night at the working men's club: quiz, barbeque then England match. One of his mates was stopping over with us and it's been arranged for ages. Dd's & I were having a girly night.
Plan was to walk up to pub a few miles away for Sunday lunch (pub that has special family connections: my parents' wedding reception, our christening dos, my Mum's & more recently my Dad's wake). Thought it would be nice for dh & reminder of my dad too, who died 3 years ago this week.
Dh came to bed at around 5 this morning then woke me up at 5.30 pissing - yes, frickin PISSING- into my wardrobe onto my shoes, a load of my scarves & into his own shoe drawer. He was absolutely insensible.
I am beyond livid. He's lying here completely stinking. He woke up earlier to apologise & to clean the wardrobe out and asked if I would consider not being quite so judgmental as he hasn't got this pissed for many years. I told him to dream on. He obviously won't be able to drive today so I'll have to take his friend to the train station (god knows what state he's in too).
I really am not in the mood for a cosy Sunday lunch with him. The kids gave him his card & present and he managed to stay awake long enough to thank them. They didn't know we'd planned on Sunday lunch so they'd be no worse off.
I'm frickin FUMING.
At least they apologised though.
I was fcking livid with my dp, too. I thought he went up to his mates house but he didn't, he wasn't there till the 2nd half, from 6 till the end of the 1st half he was at one friends house accross the road, which I would have gone to as it was a bbq, I didn't know. then He went up to his friends house, but she hates me and caused shit with us. As I got concerned as to where he was, I rang up asking where he was, and when I found out he was there I went fucking angry, angrier than I've ever been with him because of the shit she caused and playing me off against him is not "friend" in my books. I was upset. He then went back out for the 2nd half but came in at 3 even though I said don't be later than half 2. I got dressed up in a dress I bought from an adult shop one time, did my hair, makeup, and waited for him to come in. He went to the toilet, laid down and I know when he's had too much as he wouldn't move - he felt sick. 45 minutes later, he throws up all over the bed, and himself which I had to clean up. I sat and fucking cried while he was sleeping. I was gutted. The day after, we didn joke about it, and he apologised. We went out and got a new duvet and I did the bedroom for him. I only see him on weekends as we both work during the week and he lives with his parents, I live with mine. I hardly saw him at all due to him working evenings, then the match (went out at 6, came in at 3 ish) then sleeping till 11 when i was up all night, then i was off work and he went to work, came in, thenw ent to the shop with his mate. If he was 30, I'd expect more from him but he isn't, he's 20. It pissed me off so much. YANBU OP.
Fucking hell I am glad I don't live in a world where getting so drunk you piss in a wardrobe is normal behaviour!
I know no one who has got that drunk. Even if I or Dp have got drunk enough to puke (me once when I had post natal psychosis and was not coping) and Dp maybe twice when he drank on a hot day without having eaten; we have managed to puke in the toilet or in a bowl and have cleaned up ourselves.
I can't believe people want to minimise this kind if behaviour! And the poster that said her dh pissed in the babies cot and they joke about it?!! Wtf?!!
LOL SerenitySutton, I don't mind being a lone voice.
I really laughed at the idea that not being expected to piss on someone's clothes, is walking on eggshells and being subjected to abuse. Um, expecting your partner to behave normally, is not really abusive, is it? Come on now.
OP, did he clean up? Have you lots of nice new shoes and scarves?
OP, did he clean up? Have you lots of nice new shoes and scarves?
I don't know, maybe I'm particularly odd, but I don't think that's really good enough from an adult either. If you make a mistake and act like a child, at least take responsibility after the fact.
Perhaps he was mortified and tried to shrug it off because of the shame he felt.
The bit that annoyed me the most was the OP saying that her DH asked her to consider being not too judgemental because he hasn't got that pissed in 14 years. That suggests he isn't really that apologetic because he thinks as long as it doesn't happen very often it's not that big a deal.
That's what I'm really struggling with, too. It sounds like he's aggreived by this notion that that drunk and incoherent, causing damage to someone else's belongings is ok for a parent, and you'd have to be judgemental to object. So it's not a problem unless you're some kind of like, total square, man.
Also, not getting up with the kids, you'll just have to cope. Where are my #1 Dad presents?
Was it this forum where someone's husband pissed over their baby's cot while pissed? I don't think I could let that go, TBH.
Regarding pissing in the wardrobe, I've heard of it before, though fortunately it never happened to me. I could probably forgive it once, but no more than that. But I hate being round drunken people (including myself when I used to drink) so I realise I'm probably more judgemental than other people.Even I wouldn't call it abusive though.
My DH has form for getting very confused after being asleep for a while after a few drinks. Not necessarily very drunk either.
He has, in the past, got out of bed and wandered into the wrong room looking for the toilet. Once I woke up and caught him 'lining up' to the top drawer of a chest of drawers in the dark. I was horrified and yelled out. He was totally glazed over, like a sleepwalker. I led him to the bathroom. He didn't remember in the morning.
I believe there is a difference between the drunken shamblings of blokes still out in the pub or club, perhaps throwing up everywhere but not peeing everywhere, as described above, and the confusion that happens once the drunk person has been asleep in bed for a while and then gets up in the dark, half asleep and drunk.
I think the key is how they behave the morning after, and what steps they take to ensure it doesn't happen again. And weather they stick to that. Therefore, for me, true forgiveness and trust it wasn't going to happen again would take a loooooong time.
Yeah, but even sober, you can't control if you vomit or not
Yes you can. I've been sick loads and have only ever been sick in a toilet or if I've been outside somewhere discreet and appropriate. You don't just stand there talking to someone and then chuck up all over their face do you?!
Appreciate there might be the infrequent occasion that you can't control either your bladder or being sick. Disgusting but no way a LTB thing unless it's a habit. People make mistakes.
All this 'a grown man should know when he's getting too drunk and stop' well unfortunately the more drunk you get the poorer your decision making becomes and that becomes harder!
That's just the point though, I think when pissed some people cannot control their bladders, nobody surely would deliberately pee anywhere but the toilet if they knew what they were doing!!
I've never puked anywhere but the toilet or in a bucket, but i've pissed in the street/someones garden a fair few times!
Personally vomming is worse to me. I'd rather smell and see a puddle of yellow urine than a puddle of lumpy half digested food with various colours and textures, and oh god the smell. I think piss is way easier to clean up too.
Yeah, but even sober, you can't control if you vomit or not. It's not like you can hold down your puke. It's worse, but more understandable and forgivable.
You CAN control your bladder. It's not like the DH wet himself because he lost control, he had to purposely whip it out and pee away from the toilet. It's a much greater loss of control and drinking almost to the point of blacking out which can be dangerous. He should know his limit by now and never have had that much too drink in the first place. It's not anything divorce worthy and frankly I wouldn't hold it against him for too long if he's embarrassed about it.
but I would be teasing him for a long time once I was no longer upset
Either way, you should be cleaning up your own fluids and replacing damaged items. The only bodily fluids I clean up is my own (Unless you have a fever or something).
One of my favourite jokes by Clement Freud:
A DW was at the end of her tether with her DH coming home drunk and covered in vomit. So she said if he did it again she'd LTB. He went off to the pub, promising he'd not get in a state. As the evening progressed he got very drunk and threw up all down his shirt. He said to his mate 'oh god, DW is going to kick me out for sure now'. His mate produced a £20 note and popped it into his pocket, he said 'not to worry i've got a foolproof plan, go home and tell your wife that another man was so drunk, you were helping him and he yogged all down you. He was so apologetic he gave you this £20 note for the dry cleaning'. That's a good idea the DH said. So later when he got home his DW saw the vomit and was just about to fly into a rage when the DH produced the £20 note from his pocket and told her the story. Hmmm she said calming down a bit, then noticing another £20 note in his other pocket, she said 'well what's that £20 quid for' and he said 'ahhhh yes...he also shat in my pants'
Hmm, this is odd. I agree completely that dealing with vomit is miles worse than dealing with piss - but I still feel that's it's worse in drunkenness/control terms to piss yourself. Not logical.
I have heard of this before and my DH has done it once. When I yelled 'what are you doing', he replied 'just having a wee' and was genuinely baffled and apologetic when I pointed out he wasn't in the bathroom.
Not a great state to get in but these things do sometimes happen and not always to drunken young men either. At least four other women I know have had this happen with their +40yrs DH's, not all had been drinking either. It's dreaming/sleepwalking at times.
As long as he is apologetic and cleans up properly there should be no harm done. I can actually laugh about when my DH did it now as one mistake did not cancel out that he is an amazing DH/DF usually.
I can tell you two like that but neither of us were drunk and we didn't pee, we just got lost in a room.
One was a few weeks ago in a hotel. We'd been there a few days and I asked for the room to be changed so it was changed. That night I got up to go to the loo in the dark and I couldn't find the door of the en-suuite. I was in and out the bedroom, even in the wardrobe and wardrobe come dressing room area, but I just couldn't find the loo. I panicked and shouted oh dear god Im trapped, it was an awful feeling, really. My daughter in law had to wake up and sort me out as to where the loo was.
Another time was on a canal boat holiday with my dad and step mum. I woke up in the night to my step mum yelling things in Welsh, it all sounded horrific and I thought she was being murdered, even my dad panicked and was out of bed like a shot. The neighbours even woke up. And what for - well it was to find my step mum standing starkers in a crisp box yelling like a banshee cos she couldn't find the light to the toilet which by the way was at the other end of the boat.
We were staying in a hotel once and my mum got up in the night and pissed thru the chair in the room. I just heard the trickling and woke up. It that she was pissed and wasn't she couldn't be arse to go to the toilet - the toilet was an en suite so really near - but she was half asleep and disorientated. It does happen. I've known a few people with similar stories.
I think the proble with this England match was that it started so late. I know of pubs/clubs that were 'closing their doors' early evening which meant that people were there for a good 4 plus hours before kick off.
I'm sure the OPs DH has learnt his lesson and won't do it again.
What I have never seen or even heard of in all my years is a man pissing themselves. Ever. So to me that makes it extremely rare and I do genuinely think if someone is pissing in a wardrobe they are half consciously doing it because they can't be bothered to go to the toilet
Not at all. I know people that have gone to do it (been caught in time due to DH/DW) due to being delirious with high tempertaures.

(CBS News) In order to make its point on hyper-addictive casual games, The New York Times embedded a game that lets players shoot and blow up ads, comments and links on their website. Brilliant!
A bold move, considering the article is a seven-page commentary on the evolution and implications of addictive casual games on our society. The article begins with the classic game Tetris and goes on to mention Angry Birds and Farmville.
The author Sam Anderson admits he was lured into the darkness of video game addiction with Drop7, a game that's a mix of Tetris and Sodoku. Anderson's search to make sense of his addiction brings him to indie game designer Zach Gage, who laments over modern-day game design.
"Today we are living, for better and worse, in a world of stupid games," Anderson writes. His journey attempts to make sense of casual game addiction and poor game design, but ultimately, isn't that just like asking why anyone likes anything?
While Anderson waxed poetic about the implications of "stupid games," we were busy shooting ads on the site.
The game was created for the Times and based on a game called "Kick Ass." It's highly addictive, but don't take our word for it, check it out at NYTimes.com.

OHI Electronics deploys Roland to Oman's Royal Court Affairs
Published: MEA
OMAN: Oman International Electronics & Trading Co (OHI Electronics), a subsidiary of the OHI Group, recently completed a pair of projects for the country's Royal Court Affairs. The state government office contracted the systems integrator to install new live production and streaming systems at the Sultan Qaboos Youth Complex in Salalah and the Supreme Court in Muscat. Based on the specifications for both projects, OHI Electronics opted for Roland's VR-3, a combined portable audio and video mixer that includes a USB port for live streaming. These were supplied by the manufacturer's distributor in the Middle East, Nicolas M Kyvernitis Electronics Enterprises (NMK).
'Based on the live production and streaming requirements we chose Roland VR-3 mixers for both projects,' explained OHI Electronics sales manager Santhosh Vasu. 'It makes it very easy for A/V technicians to convert or mix audio and video files. The best feature is its portability and recording and streaming applications.'

Mexican Mix-Up
Recipe by Cerulean
This easy recipe is a hit each time I make it. It also goes great topped with cheese. I use a very large and very deep skillet to prepare most of the dish, but a wok might work if you don't have that large of a skillet. The mexican mix has corn, peppers, broccoli, cauliflower, and onion. The key vegetables are corn and peppers, but you can try different variations to change the flavor and color balance.
Top Review by jhackg0d
In a word: Excellent! I did some minor tweaking to this recipe as I went along. I used Southern Style Mixed Veggies, which add some nice flavor. After I tasted the veggie-rotel-meat mix, it was a bit spicy for the likes of kids... so I added about 1/4 cup of brown sugar, which actually ended up tasting delicious. I never covered the mixture, and made all of the rice separate, because I thought it would be easier, which it was. I served it up on flour tortillas with cheese and sour cream. Yummy! My 2-year old ate one whole tortilla filled with this, which is a LOT of food. Thanks!
See Discussion:1 Review
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 lb ground round
- 2 teaspoons seasoning salt
- 1 (10 ounce) can Rotel tomatoes & chilies
- 1 (10 ounce) bag frozen mexican-style vegetables
- 2 cups Minute Rice
- 1 cup water
Directions See How It's Made
- In a large, deep skillet, cook the meat until brown, mixing in the seasoned salt evenly through the meat.
- Once the meat is done, stir in the Ro*Tel and the vegetables. Cover and cook on medium high heat for 2-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are cooked.
- Push the mixture to one side and try to judge how much liquid is sitting in the bottom of the skillet. Most of the time, I have about 1 cup. Pour an equal amount of rice into the liquid and push some of the mixture back over the rice, so the rice is sitting in the liquid as much as possible. Cover and cook on medium low heat.
- In a separate pot, follow the Minute Rice stove top instructions for the remainder of the rice. Once it is cooked, uncover the skillet and stir in the rice. Stir the entire combination until the rice is evenly distributed. Cover and let it simmer on low heat for a couple more minutes.
- Uncover and serve.

Since I'm always adding more to the to-do list than is physically capable, I'm not a stranger to the feedback:
1) I don't know how you do it...
And …
2) Seriously I don't know how you do it …
By "it" they are referring to the balancing of life and I'll tell you like I tell them:
I don't do "it" well.
It's not to say I don't try. I do. I try very hard. Every day. But rarely do I succeed. I bought a planner to make to do lists and to keep our families' schedules organized, and then I got an app on my phone as a backup. Currently, besides those planners, I have the planner at my work desk, then the planner in my purse, then the virtual planner, and the planner's planner.
Yet, if you can imagine, I still struggle.
And with that struggle comes a thousand questions, mainly – "Am I doing this right?" When my children are older, will they resent me because we don't get home until after 6 and bedtime is 8? Because in that two hour time slot is everything from cooking to homework to shower time, leaving little for family time in between. I feel lost. I feel drained. I feel guilty.
My ultimate dream is to find a guilt free balance between all the avenues in my life – the working mom, the soccer mom, the homemaker mom, the writer / designer mom – to be able to prioritize my time, stay focused, on schedule, on task, on demand – all with the accuracy of a skilled surgeon, and looking amazing while completing the daily tasks. (Reminds me, add working out to today's to do list …)
That's the ultimate goal.
To have it all, well balanced.
Here is the truth.
I spend most of my days in chaos. I have great intentions of making something home made for dinner, but then by 5pm I see the time and suddenly Schnuck's deli is cooking for me again. Ninety percent of the time Thomas is wearing his uniform from the previous day because there was no time for laundry. Each Monday I print the school schedule for the week and as I put it in one of the 19 calendars I have and if I remember in the morning to pack snacks for the afternoon then I am ahead of schedule.
I'm in awe of parents who seem to never raise their voices or use bribery or whisper threats that I am pretty sure are impossible to enforce – i.e. If you don't clean your room and take care of your stuff I'll box it all up and ship it to children in Africa who will appreciate these things.
Instead I'm the parent who whispers impossible threats, and sadly, bribery is a part of my parenting arsenal. I struggle with "Am I doing this parenting thing right? Is it supposed to be this hard? "It" seriously didn't come with a manual??? OH THE GUILT!!!" I mean, and I the only one whose been embarrased in the supermarket because my child, red faced with anger, is tired of me saying no all the time and wants a cookie and because I made him tardy then it's the least I can do … Or the one who feels like you've drained your energy trying to get them to listen ... Or I am the one who after he is asleep has made my way into the bathroom to cry for three minutes (and three minutes only we have schedule to keep!) because he started another sentence with, "I know the answer is going to be no, but could you ask your boss if you could be at my ___ " … fill in the blank with one of 11 school activities for the month.
I feel like I am disappointing them on a daily basis.
I feel like I am disappointing them on a daily basis.
I have tried to portray myself as the mom who is tough, resilient, capable, and can cope with all that is thrown at her with cat like reflexes. I strive to be that mom that after a10 hour work day, I have fresh baked cookies for homework time, and no yelling evening time, combined with super creative art projects for down time right before we are reading books together before bed time.
Nope. Not me. Not even in a dream.
I am a hot mess most days. And I feel the guilt that accompanies that hot mess. I feel I am not giving my children the life they deserve. Like I'm not giving them all of me, my time, my energy, my creativity, my heart. In theory yes, my kids have my heart, completely 100%, but realistically if I am measured by the amount of well balanced time I give them I get a grade of FAIL.
And here is the reality:
I have what I refer to as Guilty Mom's Syndrome. Nothing is ever good enough, we are the hardest on ourselves, we are our worst enemy and biggest critic.
For example: Feeling the guilt, I signed up for room mom is attempts to score some brownie points with my son, who, these days can be an unrelenting, confusing, selfish, button-pushing little thing who has learned the power silent treatment has over me. He's struggling right now with low confidence, and of course, I feel the guilt of that too - so maybe being his room mom will help? Yet, once I put my name on the line, I seconded guessed everything. How do I include more meetings / organization / planning into an already chaotic schedule?
Truth is I would leave my office in a second if he needed me. I would drop anything to be at his side. His laughter gives me the greatest joy, and I ache with love for him – for him and for Bella. Their laughter is where my peace in this crazy thing called life lies. With them, I have "home" and feel complete and it makes the chaos of the day worth every moment of it.

Their laughter is where my peace in this crazy thing called life lies. With them, I have "home" and feel complete and it makes the chaos of the day worth every moment of it.
Still, I feel guilty most days, okay, okay, every day. But I also know I am working towards a life that they can be proud of. And I also ensure they know that no matter what the to-do list or calendar says, I will be there. Flying by the seat of my pants none the less, but I will there.
I remind myself that I am not alone. There is no such thing as normal. That ALL parents, working, stay at home, single, divorced, or married – all of us are attempting to do what's best for our children. I remind myself that we all have flaws and mine involve not being good with balancing both work and home, but I am really good at snuggling, stories, and listening. When needed, I am singing the boo boo song to make the pain go away, and finding "Max" the bedtime toy when he seems to be missing again and someone can't sleep. I am not good at making dinner in twenty minutes or less unless it involves a phone call to our local pizza service, but I am really good at being the biggest cheerleader on the sidelines and laughing when the joke isn't funny, and sneaking in and switching out their tooth for money (or a gift card, whatever my wallet has that evening) even if I don't remember until 1am after I just got the house cleaned up, my face washed, my teeth brushed, and laid down for the first time since 6am ….
I am NOT good at balancing my life, but I am really good at being a mom first, and all else second. No matter what I may think. Guilt is there and something tells me it's not going away any time soon. Good thing I get the most amazing hugs to keep me going … to make "IT" worth it.

Series: International Studies in Environmental Policy Making
390 pages, Figs, tabs
Emissions trading is a central feature of global efforts to control climate change. Its inclusion in the Kyoto Protocol to the Framework Convention on Climate Change represents a victory for advocates of market based instruments and builds upon 20 years of experience with trading schemes in the United States. However, the concept is controversial and attempts to introduce similar trading schemes in Europe have met with mixed results. This volume provides a comprehensive overview of the theory and practice of emissions trading including the lessons learnt, the problems faced and the prospects for its extended use. It includes case studies of trading schemes in the USA and Europe, and studies of international trading under the European acid rain regime. Problems of practical implementation, especially institutional feasibility and political acceptability, are given particular attention.

After launching the GLE Coupe in India, and the GLC SUV, German carmaker Mercedes-Benz may launch a Coupe version of the GLC in India in 2017. Mercedes-Benz has big plans for India and is expanding its portfolio in India as well.
In 2015, Mercedes-Benz launched 15 new models in the country and for 2016, Mercedes has planned a total of 12 launches.
Based on the GLC SUV, the GLC Coupe will have a strong resemblance to the SUV when looked from up front, but the design changes dramatically towards the rear of the vehicle. The rear takes a similar design to that of the GLE Coupe, along with sleeker tail lamps.
Mercedes could use the 220d diesel engine that makes 167bhp or the 250d diesel engine that produces 236bhp, along with the 9-speed automatic gearbox. There are also chances of Mercedes offering customers a petrol hybrid variant.
Safety features will be of abundance such as eight airbags, Anti-lock Braking System (ABS), Electronic Stability Program (ESP), Downhill Speed Regulation (DSR), and Mercedes' pre-safe system.
As for the pricing, the Mercedes-Benz GLC Coupe could be priced under Rs. 60 lakh in India, keeping in mind that the GLC SUV is priced at Rs. 50.7 lakh ex-showroom (Pune).

What is the best way to go about changing the server times. At the moment the time on the servers is about 10 mins, thus all workstations are 10 mins slow. I've read that changing the server time on servers can stop them communicating with each other. What is the best way to update the time on all servers at the same time?
Any suggestions most welcome!
Aug 5, 2009 at 10:26 UTC
Once you've got all your servers syncing, the workstations can sync and get the right time also. You can set the parameters through GPO is you want.

In a domain:
Sync the PDC with NIST and then have everyone sync to the PDC.
In a workgroup setting:
Sync the DHCP Server with NIST and then have everyone sync to the DHCP Server.
User your local atomic clock in leiu of NIST
Aug 5, 2009 at 10:00 UTC
Agreed sync your contoller with the PDC emulator role to an outside source. Then you could have all yout other servers sync to it like mentioned above. Then all your computers will have the same time.
this could help you get started.
don't worry about losing communication. once they are all synched up you should be fine.
Aug 5, 2009 at 10:07 UTC
How do I go about syncing with an outside source? So if I change the time on my Primary Domain Controller it should change for all member servers and PCs?
Aug 5, 2009 at 10:15 UTC
check out the article above and go through the main process on your domain comtroller. Any other servers you have you can set it to use your domain contoller as the authoritative time source. all your user pcs will get their time from the domain controller. if you want to dig deeper into what the registry settings do google windows server time synchonization.
Aug 5, 2009 at 10:18 UTC
1. You can use Windows built-in Time Sync Service (see article above)
2. From a command prompt, type:
net time \\nisttimeserver /set /y
for a list of time servers, see the following:
3. You can use NIST Software
Yes, if properly set up all your PCs should sync with the PDC.
Aug 5, 2009 at 10:20 UTC
Kimberlin is spot on. We are so concerned about time, I take it one step further and have an AT command run a batch file on every users pc twice a day. When they login, the AT command sets the batch file to run at login, and at noon. The AT command that runs at login is:
at 12:00pm /every:m,t,w,th,f "c:\settime.bat"
The batch file "settime.bat" is simply:
net time /DOMAIN:domainname /SET /Y
Aug 5, 2009 at 10:23 UTC
when i first got here they were going nuts cause i got the time on the atomic clock in the sales room, the clock on the phones and the clocks on the pcs to match. I got brownie points for that. People would find the fastest clock to start a break and the slowest one to come back. We would lose 3 minutes of worktime per break that way. :)
Aug 5, 2009 at 10:26 UTC
Once you've got all your servers syncing, the workstations can sync and get the right time also. You can set the parameters through GPO is you want.
Aug 5, 2009 at 12:24 UTC
You can also set the time zone with a GPO.
Aug 6, 2009 at 3:16 UTC
Thanks all for your coments. I just ended up adjusting the time on the PDC and w32tm /resync on all the other servers. Logged off and back on my machine and time had updated!
Aug 6, 2009 at 11:30 UTC

[fic] Case X-1843: Unresolved (1b/2) X-Men/X-Files; Mulder, Scully, Scott
Expand Messages
- CASE X-1843: Unresolved
Continuing direction from part 1a/2
Climbing the stairs two at a time, he peered into the
three bedrooms, found the boy sitting on his bed in
one of them. "Hi."
The kid looked up.
"What's your name?" Mulder asked, though he aready
"My name's Fox. Can I come in?"
"Sure, I guess. And what kind of a name is Fox?"
Entering, Mulder ignored that as the obligatory
schoolboy attempt at bravado, took a seat on the other
bed in the room �- by all appearances, that of the
missing foster brother. It was not a very big room
for two boys; the Franklins had larger hearts than
bank accounts. Scott's tastes had been simple,
judging from his decor. He liked the color green, and
he had elaborate models of planes on his dresser, and
airplane posters over his bed. On the headboard
bookshelf sat Frank Herbert's DUNE series, Isaac
Asimov's FOUNDATION trilogy, and Greg Bear's EON.
Also a picture of Selena Ki. The other books were
science-related or about planes. Scott Summers
clearly had a thing for objects that went zoom through
the air. "Your brother is into jets, isn't he?"
"He's not my brother."
Mulder glanced around at him. "You two don't get
"We get along fine." Stubborn jut of chin on the other
boy. "He still wasn't my brother."
"Do you know why he ran away, Jeff?"
"No." Very sullen.
"Do you think he did run away?"
The kid just glared, then abruptly he exploded to his
feet. "Why can't you just leave Scott alone? He
didn't do anything, okay? I don't care what they say,
he didn't do anything wrong!"
Mulder kept deliberately calm. "And I'm not accusing
him of anything. I just want to know what happened
and where he went, so maybe we can find him before he
gets hurt."
"Yeah, right. You're going to take him away and lock
him up again. And you'll never find him if he doesn't
want to get found." It was said with a mixture of
resentment and pride. "He won't get hurt. Scott's
"I wouldn't be too sure of that, Jeff. He may be
tough, but there are a lot of mean people on the
street �- meaner and older than he is. He's not in
trouble right now, but he could be if he stays out
there for long. He could get killed. We've been told
that he ran away blind; it's hard to defend yourself
if you can't see. Are you sure you don't have any
idea where he might have gone?"
The kid chewed that over, then shook his head, sadly.
"No." This time, Mulder was fairly sure the answer
was honest, not merely rebellious. "If it were Omaha,
I might know. But not here."
"Where might he have gone, in Omaha?"
"Downtown. There's some pool halls there and all.
Down in the Hispanic area. He knows some Spanish."
Mulder doubted Scott could play pool with his eyes
shut �- assuming whatever was wrong with his eyes had
lasted -� but even if the boy couldn't hustle pool, he
still might return to Omaha if he knew the town
better, or at least knew how to disappear there better
than in San Diego.
Whatever the case, the boy Jeff was acting entirely
too skittish. He sat with his head lowered, his hands
working nervously against each other and one leg
jiggling up and down. Just waiting for Mulder to
leave. He knew something he wasn't telling and Mulder
had a suspicion of what it might be. "Did Scott
return home last night, Jeff?"
The boy must have jumped six inches off the bed.
"Jeff, you need to tell me the truth. I'm not here to
arrest Scott. Like I said, I'm trying to find him
before he gets hurt. But you have to help me. If you
know where he went, or saw him after the prom . . . .
" He trailed off and waited. The atmosphere in the
room grew heavier and heavier. Finally the kid caved.
He was just a kid, after all.
"Okay, yeah, he came back last night. There's a tree
outside our window. Last night, he climbed up it to
knock on the glass. I let him in and helped him pack
his things 'cause he couldn't see. He had his eyes
all squeezed shut and said he couldn't open them or
he'd hurt me. I didn't understand what he was talking
about but he was scared and really nervous. He said
he had to get out of here and asked me to put some of
his clothes in his backpack, and get his money. He
had some saved. He made me order the bills, too, so
he knew how much he had -� fold the corners and stuff,
in different ways for ones and fives and tens and
twenties. Then he had me get him some scissors, duct
tape and his sunglasses. But honest to God, he didn't
tell me where he was going. I asked, but he wouldn't
"What time was this?"
"I don't know. Not long after the accident, I think.
We hadn't heard it on the news yet, and the police
hadn't come. Nine o'clock? Ten o'clock, maybe?"
Mulder nodded. The high school wasn't that far from
the Franklins' house. If the Summers kid had come
home as fast as he could get here, he might have
managed to make it before anyone had figured out what
was up and come after him. "And he didn't open his
eyes while he was here? Not once? Even by accident?"
"No, sir. He said he'd hurt me bad if he did. He was
all white, like a sheet. I've never seen him that
"What else did he say?"
"Nothing, really. He said something awful had
happened at school, and he was in trouble again so he
was leaving before he hurt me or Gene or Beth -� um,
Mr. and Mrs. Franklin. We call them �- "
"That's fine, Jeff. Please go on."
"That's about it. Most of the rest of what he said
was 'get this' or 'get that.' He was in a big hurry.
The scissors and duct tape was the weirdest, until I
heard what happened at the school. I guess he put it
over his eyes, didn't he?"
"Probably so."
And at that moment, Fox Mulder decided that he liked
Scott Summers. Panicked as the boy had been, he'd
been thinking of how to keep himself from hurting
anyone else by accident.
"What kind of clothing did he take?"
"What kind of clothing? Did he take warm clothes, or
summer clothes? Did he take a jacket?"
"Just t-shirts and jeans and stuff. But yeah, he took
a jacket. And his red hooded sweatshirt. He likes
that stupid thing even though it has holes under the
arms, calls it his lucky shirt."
Mulder stood up, fished a business card out of his
wallet, wrote his cell number on the back and gave it
to the boy. "If Scott comes back home, even briefly,
I want you to call me. See if he'll talk to me, but
if he won't, you call me just the same. I think you
realize that I don't want to hurt him." Mulder caught
the boy's eyes and tried to put all his conviction in
that look. "Tell Scott that I know he *didn't*
destroy that wall on purpose. I want to help him.
Will you tell him that for me?"
The kid accepted Mulder's card and studied the front.
"Yes, sir. And I know he didn't, either."
Mulder left the room, gathered Scully with a glance
and they made their farewells to the Franklins. "So?"
he asked her as soon as they were in the car. "What
did you find out?"
"Lots of stories about what a good boy he was. Not
much else of use, but I took copious notes. You can
review them later. I'd still like to know why he ran
away from the orphanage the first time. And you?"
"I found out that he went home right after the dance,
had the younger kid pack him clothing, his money, some
duct tape, scissors, sunglasses, and then took off for
parts unknown."
Scully smiled. "And you're always telling me that you
don't have a way with kids, Mulder. But �- duct tape
and scissors?"
"For his eyes, Scully. To tape his eyes shut. You
still think this is a hoax?"
She didn't reply. After a moment, Mulder added, "I
think he's protecting them. That's why he ran. Did
you get a picture of young Mr. Summers?"
"About twenty of them."
Mulder smiled. "Any of him in sunglasses?"
Scully didn't reply, just studied Mulder's profile.
"So if he's not going home again, where is he going?"
"Back to Omaha. It's the one place where he knows how
to live by his wits."
Scully didn't question that. Before taking over the
X-Files, Mulder had worked as a profiler in the
Bureau, had built a reputation on his instinct for
second-guessing the criminal mind. Trouble was,
Mulder didn't believe this boy's mind was criminal,
just confused and frightened, and he hoped that his
instinct was still leading him in the right direction.
He wanted to find Scott Summers before anyone else
did, anyone inclined to see him as a potential weapon.
Still, the kid was not going to be easy to find.
Mulder would bet his next paycheck that however
Summers might have spent the last four years with the
Franklins, he was inherently distrustful of authority,
and now was desperately frightened, too. If he
contacted anyone, he'd contact the boy Jeff. Mulder
didn't think he'd take Jeff's word and call Mulder
directly, but Mulder had covered that contingency
anyway. What Mulder did hope was that Scott would
listen to Jeff long enough so that when Mulder did
finally catch up with him, he wouldn't bolt before
Mulder could get past introductions.
That Mulder would catch up with him, Mulder never
Omaha, Nebraska, June 1, 1996
"Any luck, Mulder?" Scully asked, as he slid back into
the passenger side.
"Not yet."
"And how many places does this make?"
"Eleven. But we've still got a few to go, plus the
downtown." Mulder checked the map. "Head to Farnam
Street and then east to 13th . We'll ask around the
Old Market. Probably too high class a neighborhood,
but you never know."
Te Old Market was a revitalized area of downtown
Omaha, off the Leahy Mall Park, not far from the old
railroad yards by the Missouri River. Interesting
area. High class, despite the age of the brick
buildings, some of which dated almost back to the
city's founding. Omaha, dead in the middle of the
Heartland, had been the new gateway to the West after
St. Louis had become too settled. Corn and cattle
country, and surprisingly hilly here on the very edge
of the Great Plains. For several days now, Mulder and
Scully had canvassed the bus and train stations and
the low-rent districts, with no luck. Now, they
walked around the Old Market with a picture of Scott
Summers, asking a lot of questions. Some, they asked
each other.
"Are you sure he came here, Mulder?"
"I'm sure of nothing but death and taxes, Scully."
"And little grey men." She grinned, almost against
her will -� one of her trademark Scully-smiles that so
delighted him.
He went on, "I'd say the probability's high that this
is where he'll turn up. Nonetheless, we may have
beaten him here. We had the advantage of plane
tickets, and he's traveling blind."
"You seem awfully convinced of that."
"Why else take duct tape?"
"What if this is just an elaborate ploy to get away
from his foster family?"
"Like the girl Carley said, Scully �- why? It doesn't
add up. He was about to graduate from high school
with honors. He had a college scholarship waiting for
him. If someone can give me a good reason why he'd
pull a prank like they're crediting him with and then
run, I'll entertain the idea. Until that time, I'm
going to assume he ran because he's scared and doesn't
think anyone's on his side, even his foster parents.
They're foster parents, after all. No matter how
sincerely they care, he'll doubt them. He spent a
long time on his own; he's going to revert to that.
We need to find him before someone else does. I doubt
we're the only ones looking for him. Can you imagine
what Cancer Man could do with a kid able to pulverize
a wall just by looking at it?"
He caught her shudder out of the corner of his eyes.
It was later that same afternoon when they finally ran
across someone who'd seen Scott Summers.
"Yeah, I remember the kid. Blind kid, right?" The
speaker was a caricature artist who'd been working the
Market sidewalk for several years. "He showed up two
nights ago -� first time, sat around playing guitar
for spare change. We get us a lot of musicians here;
they all kinda blur after a while. But I remember
this one. People stopped to listen to him. He in
some kind of trouble?"
"No. We just want to talk to him," Scully assured the
man. "Do you know if he'll show up again tonight?"
"No idea, ma'am. You sure he's not in some kind of
"No, why do you ask?"
"Well, there was another guy here earlier, asking if
anyone had seen a blind kid. He didn't have a
picture, though."
Mulder and Scully traded a glance. "This man asking
about him," Mulder said, "did he smoke? Was he thin,
with graying hair and a long, kind of craggy face?"
"What? No, not at all. Guy was in a wheelchair.
Bald as home plate, too. Real well-dressed sort,
y'know? Old money."
Mulder blinked. He'd never met, seen, nor heard of
anyone in the Consortium who matched that description,
but he was under no illusions that he knew everyone.
"Thank you for your time." And he and Scully walked
"So, we wait for tonight."
"Who do you think the guy in the wheelchair is,
"Your guess is as good as mine. As long as Krychek
doesn't show up with him, I'll be happy."
They went back to their hotel, and Mulder left Scully
at the door to her room. "Dress casual. If we're not
the only ones seeking Summers, I don't want to draw
attention to ourselves. But let's get there early.
I'll pick you up at five."
She nodded and they parted. At five, they met again
in the hotel lobby, in jeans and khakis and
long-sleeved shirts. Their guns were holstered out of
sight. Mulder prayed they wouldn't need them. "Ready
to find our mystery kid?" She made a wordless gesture
towards the door and they went out together.
Even so early, the Market was crawling with people by
the time they arrived. It was a lovely June evening,
the Midwestern sky a clear blue quartz overhead,
though a few clouds shaded the western horizon, and
the wind had picked up. "Might rain," Mulder said.
Scully just looked at the sky, and raised an eyebrow.
"This is Nebraska, Scully. Want different weather?
Wait fifteen minutes."
"And what would you know about the Midwest, Mulder?
You grew up on Martha's Vineyard." She paused and
looked around. They stood outside a restaurant with
an old train trolley parked beside it. �The Spaghetti
Works,' announced the sign. The man at the hotel desk
had said it was a fixture, then confided privately
that the food wasn't all that good. "Go to the
Upstream," he'd said. "They brew their own beer."
Across the street, three horse-drawn carriages had
parked, ready to take young lovers, or families with
kids, on a nostalgic road trip through the brick-laid
streets. "Do you want to split up?" she asked.
"We'd probably cover more ground that way. You go
north and west; I'll go south and east. Keep an eye
out for that guy in the wheelchair. Or Krychek, for
that matter. If you find Summers, call me before you
approach him."
"Just trust me on this one."
They parted and went their separate ways. Mulder had
been moseying around the sidewalks for about half an
hour while the sky overhead had gotten dark, when he
thought he caught sight of a wheelchair half-in the
doorway of a wine shop. But by the time he got
through the crowd and over to the shop to see, he
found no one. He was about to phone Scully, to let
her know, when the cell rang in his hand. He flipped
it open, "Mulder."
"It's me. I've found him. He's got his guitar and is
wearing a red sweatshirt. I'm at the corner of . . ."
-� she paused to look -� "Howard and 12th Streets."
"I'm on my way."
"Hey, Mulder."
"He really can sing."
"Be on the look-out, Scully. I think I saw a guy in a
Mulder had already been moving in the direction of
Scully; now he closed the phone and slipped it back
into his belt holster, picked up the pace, jogging a
little. It had begun to sprinkle and overhead,
lightning split the dark sky. A deep excitement
thrummed in him. He felt on the edge of learning
something remarkable. It was the same sort of feeling
that often gripped him near the end of a chase, but on
the X-Files, there was the added element of wondering
just what they'd find. This was what he lived for.
Mulder arrived at the corner of Howard and 12th just
as the skies opened up with a heavy rain.
But there was no blind boy in red with a guitar.
And there was no Scully.
There was not even a man in a wheelchair.
"What the hell?" He turned round and round in his
tracks. "Scully!" he called out. "Scott Summers!"
It probably wasn't smart to alert the kid that there
was someone here who knew him by name, but maybe it
would scare him into bolting.
Unfortunately, nothing moved beyond the slow rolling
pace of the crowds. People eyed him sideways, opened
their umbrellas, and continued their peripatetic
evening despite the weather. Mulder stood in the
street while rain filled his leather loafers, and
He finally found Scully a block south, wandering
aimlessly. Grabbing her arm, he hauled her to a stop.
She looked . . . drunk. "Scully?"
"Mulder?" Abruptly, she came back to herself, shook
her head. "Where are we? What's going on?" She
shook her head again.
Mulder was frankly alarmed; what had happened to
Scully? "Scott Summers, remember? We're in Omaha,
looking for Scott Summers. Mr. Laser-Eyes from San
She shook her head again and rubbed at the bridge of
her small Roman nose. "I . . . feel like I've had two
pitchers of beer on St. Patrick's Day, Mulder. Scott
Summers -� I don't -� Oh yes, I remember now. We
were . . . . My god, where is he?" She started
swinging her head around. "He was right *there*,
dammit! But this isn't even the same street!"
"No. We're about a block away. What happened?"
"I don't remember."
"Did you see a man in a wheelchair?"
"What? No. Nobody in a wheelchair. Scott was
sitting on a little folding chair against a wall,
playing, the case open in front of him. It was easy
to get near him under pretense of listening. He
appeared to be okay, but you're right -� he had on
dark glasses and acted as if he were blind. I called
you immediately, and the next thing I knew, here I am.
*What* is going on?" she asked, peeved. Scully hated
to be played for a fool.
Now, Mulder looked up and down the street, though he
didn't really expect to see anything. "I don't know.
But I'm sure as hell going to find out."
Famous last words. For two more days, they searched
Omaha with no luck, and Mulder became increasingly
convinced that Scott Summers had been abducted �- but
not by aliens. The man in the wheelchair had managed,
somehow, to drug or mentally confuse Scully, and then
get to Summers before Mulder could show up. A mere
matter of minutes. The more Mulder thought about
that, the more anxious he became. Who was this guy?
And more importantly, for whom was he working?
Exactly two days after they lost Summers in Omaha,
Assistant Director Skinner phoned, recalling them to
Washington. "The case is closed, Mulder."
"What! On whose authority?"
"Mr. Skinner �- "
"No arguments, Mulder. I want you and Scully back in
Washington by tomorrow, and your reports on my desk
the day after that. This case is closed."
"And *unresolved*. Sir."
"And unresolved. But I see no further use in having
two of my agents chasing shadows in Omaha."
"We saw him, sir; that's not a shadow. *Why is this
case being closed?*"
"I said no arguments. Get back to Washington,
Mulder," and Skinner hung up.
"Damn," Mulder said, snapping his phone closed.
"What'd Skinner have say?" Scully asked from where
she'd been working at the table in his hotel room,
typing notes into her computer. She often worked in
his room, so they could share the file.
"He's closed the case and wants us back in Washington
by tomorrow."
Startled, Scully glanced up. "But we haven't found
the boy."
"And we're clearly not supposed to, Scully." Mulder
collapsed on the side of his bed and bitterly related
his full conversation with Skinner.
"What do you think he's covering up?" Scully asked,
when Mulder was done.
"I've no idea. And I doubt he's going to tell us,
either." He got up and paced around, his way of
releasing his frustration.
"Do you think they have Scott �- ?"
'They' didn't need to be defined. 'They' were the
faceless men in the shadow conspiracy that Mulder and
Scully had been fighting since the beginning of their
time together on the X-Files.
"I don't know," Mulder said now. "Maybe." But in
truth, he doubted it. Even the Consortium couldn't
muddle Scully's memory in a matter of moments and
whisk away a street musician without causing a public
scene. Whoever the man in the wheelchair had been, he
had resources and abilities even more alarming than
those of Cancer Man. Mulder could only hope that the
boy, Summers, didn't wind up his pawn in some
elaborate, concealed power game.
It was a few days later, once back in his office in
Washington, that Fox Mulder called the Franklin
residence to inform Scott's foster parents that he
hadn't been located, and that the Bureau had closed
the file. "But why?" Elizabeth Franklin asked,
sounding lost.
"I'm not sure, Mrs. Franklin. Those orders came from
over my head. But if you should hear from Scott
again, please call me immediately." It might be the
leverage he needed to get past Skinner's block on the
"I will," she said. "And Mr. Mulder?"
"If I sent you a letter, for Scott, would you keep it?
Just in case you find him? We want him to know that
we're not angry at him, that he can come home. We'd
like to know if he's okay."
"Sure, Mrs. Franklin. Send me the letter and, if I
find him, I'll be sure that he gets it."
"Thank you, Agent Mulder."

"Excellent treatment of my partner with chest pains"
About: Eastbourne District General Hospital Eastbourne District General Hospital Eastbourne BN21 2UD
Posted by Anonymous
My partner came down with chest pains at work and was rushed to Eastbourne DGH by ambulance. Her care was excellent from start to finish with tests being started on arrival with constant re-assurance from every member of staff including nurses, doctors and admin staff. Throughout the process every procedure was explained and particular care was taken by each person to make sure my partner was comfortable and her privacy and dignity maintained. She was carefully observed over an entire day and discharged with good advice. Communication with her GP was excellent both on the day and since as information has been exchanged to good effect. We cannot thank the hospital staff enough for their treatment.

- C 1 Single-Cell AutoPrep System that provides breakthrough bench-top automation of isolation, lysis and preamplification performed on single cells.
- C 1 Single-Cell AutoPrep Array chip that facilitates capture and highly paralleled preparation of up to 96 individual cells.
- C 1 Single-Cell AutoPrep Reagent Kit, a pre-formulated "ready to use" reagent kit that supports cell suspension, lysis and purification.
Fluidigm (NASDAQ:FLDM) today unveiled the details of its new C 1™ Single-Cell AutoPrep System to attendees at the International Society for Stem Cell Research (ISSCR) meeting in Yokohama, Japan. The C 1 System, based on Fluidigm's innovative microfluidic technology, enables a researcher to isolate and process individual cells rapidly and reliably for genomic analysis. For the first time, a researcher can isolate cells, extract RNA, and then reverse transcribe and preamplify mRNA transcripts automatically to enable detection and analysis of cell activity. Fluidigm has become a leader in the emerging field of single-cell genomics with its widely adopted BioMark™ and BioMark HD Systems, enabling scientists to routinely examine previously unavailable genomic signatures generated from a single cell. The stem cell research community in Japan, and indeed around the world, has been an important early customer group exploring single cells. Stem cell, cancer and immunology research are expected to be the initial focus applications for the C 1 System. As part of its activities at ISSCR, Fluidigm also announced the start of its Early Access Program for the C 1 System. The C 1 System has been specifically designed to work seamlessly with the BioMark HD System to enhance the workflow and reliability of data for scientists studying single-cell genomics. The Early Access Program allows select customers the opportunity to receive the first commercial shipments during the second half of 2012 before shipment to the broader group of customers. In addition to being the first to utilize the new technology, Early Access Program partners will be provided with no-cost startup consumables, participate in the development of new platform capabilities, and receive pre-market access to future platform expansions. Researchers interested in the Early Access Program can register at www.fluidigm.com/c1system. "The new C 1 Single-Cell AutoPrep System is the first of its kind. The C 1 System handles, separates and prepares individual single cells for genetic analysis. We are very excited about the commercial release of the C 1, for we believe it will enable single-cell research on a broad scale that will in turn make profound contributions to numerous fields in biology," said Gajus Worthington, President and Chief Executive Officer, Fluidigm. "Though the C 1 represents a major advance in single-cell genomics, we are at the beginning of what we can do together with the scientific community. Ultimately, the C 1 System will allow researchers to study cell differentiation, measure individual cell responses to specific stimuli, verify critical disease biomarkers, validate RNAi knockdown, and sequence individual cells," Worthington concluded. The C 1 System workflow is initiated by loading a sample of cells in solution into the C 1 microfluidic chip in a single pipetting step, then directing the C 1 System to rapidly and automatically isolate up to 96 individual cells into individual chambers for preparation. After loading, researchers can choose an "in-process" quality control checkpoint to verify the number of captured cells and distinguish live from dead cells to preserve data integrity. The workflow then proceeds with a rapid "on-chip" cell lysis without RNA purification, reverse transcription, and preamplification without hands-on reagent mixing and sample transfer. The final preamplified cDNA product is thereafter harvested to collection wells for transfer to the BioMark HD System for quantitative PCR analysis. The C 1 Single Cell AutoPrep System consists of:

Egg Salad Sandwich (Diabetic)
Recipe by lazyme
This sounds like a great low-fat egg salad. Recipe from "The Diabetes Snack Munch Nibble Nosh Book" by Ruth Glick. Cooking time does not include time for hard-boiling the eggs. Comments from the book: If you love egg salad but have cut it from your meal plan because of the cholesterol, try this zippy recipe, which discards half of the egg yolks. With all of the taste of traditional egg salad and far less fat, it's one of this cookbook author's favorite sandwiches.

Ryan Fitzpatrick is still sitting on the sidelines when it comes to his contract with the New York Jets. With an offer of around $8 million (AU$11 million), the quarterback feels he's being dealt with a huge pay cut.
With fellow quarterbacks from other teams receiving $17.5-18 million per year, one can empathise with Fitzpatrick. More so when one sees that Fitzpatrick's performance is better than the other quarterbacks of other teams who bring home more than what he does.
In an NFL voice clip, he said he'd love to continue to play with the guys he played with last year. However, he cites that there was a problem in the terms of the "dollars and cents" but he'd rather leave the negotiation details behind closed doors.
Though Fitzpatrick is still playing the numbers game, it seems the quarterback only has the New York Jets courting him to play, albeit at a lower salary than his contemporaries.

"I know my value to a team is my value to a particular team. You'd drive yourself crazy if you look at other guys and say, 'Why not me? Why not me?'" ESPN quotes Fitzpatrick musing.
Clearly, he's not happy with the contract price the New York Jets is offering him as a free agent quarterback. He has since clarified that he now knows better than to accept anything below what he's worth.
"I think, earlier in my career, I think that's something you fall into as a player. Right now, no. I understand the market and I understand those guys. I'm happy for them, for what they got," Fitzpatrick said in a radio interview.
ALSO READ: NFL 2016: Jarryd Hayne Retires to Play Rugby at Rio Olympics
Although negotiations haven't been moving, Fitzpatrick is sure he will be playing in the upcoming season.
"I'm playing. I'm playing football next year," the 33-year-old quarterback said.
The New York Jets will begin their off-season practice on Tuesday, the first of 10 practice sessions.
New York Jets executives and decision makers have been quiet on the issue. However, they hope that quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick comes back and signs with them again for the next season before their intensive training begins in July.

Broken Flowers
Movie review by Greg Carlson
Writer-director Jim Jarmusch, a longtime cult favorite among fans of smart, self-aware comedies pregnant with arid wit, has made one of the year's best films in "Broken Flowers." Equally crafty and stirring, the great filmmaker forges a terrific partnership with Bill Murray, who previously appeared with the Wu-Tang Clan's GZA and RZA in Jarmusch's black and white "Coffee and Cigarettes" omnibus. This time, the movie is in color, and Frederick Elmes' masterful photography delights the eye – particularly in the presentation of the many vivid pink objects that become clues in the movie's central, unsolvable mystery.
Murray's charming stoicism matches Jarmusch's drollery beat for beat, so it is somehow perfect that the actor plays a character named Don Johnston, a well-chosen moniker that allows for several instances of purposeful comparison to both legendary lothario Don Juan and "Miami Vice" star Don Johnson. A newly retired computer expert content to lounge catatonically on his sofa in a comfy tracksuit, Don's long term womanizing and inability to emotionally commit are summed up by departing lover Sherry (Julie Delpy), who leaves without eliciting much more than a look of resignation from Don.
Showing no signs of outward despair at the dissolution of his most recent relationship, Don hangs out with next-door neighbor Winston (Jeffrey Wright), a hardworking family man who by all appearances possesses everything that Don lacks. Sherry's exit coincides with the arrival of an anonymous letter that suggests – in red ink on pink stationary – that Don fathered a son nearly twenty years ago. Winston insists that the strange note presents Don with an opportunity to seek out the mother of his child, and the amateur sleuth convinces Don to track down the women who shared his company two decades ago. Armed with Mapquest directions and a mix CD featuring Mulatu Astatke, Don begins his quest.
Employing Jarmusch's easygoing, episodic structure, Don's odyssey brings him face to face with four of the five women who might have sent the message (one, Don ruefully learns, is deceased). The reunion set-pieces are intriguing glimpses into the many paths one's life can take, and the veteran performers are all superbly cast (although an almost unrecognizable Tilda Swinton has to make the most of fleeting screen time). Following an eye-opening interlude with Nabakovian daughter Lolita (an effervescent Alexis Dziena), Don reconnects with widow Laura (Sharon Stone), whose husband literally went up in flames in his racecar. Dora (Frances Conroy) lives with husband Ron (Christopher McDonald) in an antiseptic McMansion light years away from her flower child days. Animal communicator Carmen (Jessica Lange) seems startled by Don's surprise arrival, and is relieved when her skeptical receptionist (Chloe Sevigny) interrupts to cut the visit short.
By the time Don arrives at the home of Penny (Swinton), Jarmusch has made it clear that the journey has been the destination. Audiences seeking some kind of conclusive answer or solution to Don's original mission are likely to be disappointed, but Jarmusch treats his story and his characters with such dignity and interest, wrapping things up with a ribbon would have been an insult and a miscalculation (though Jarmusch die-hards will spend much time debating whether the film's coda goes too far). At its best, however, "Broken Flowers" bears the signature Jarmusch touches that make his best films – like "Mystery Train" and "Dead Man" – sparkle with a certain lovely, inimitable distinctiveness.
This review was originally published in the High Plains Reader the week of 8/22/05.

Submission emails are not going throughAsked by HopeEvents on February 25, 2016 at 05:26 PM
I have been having trouble with the email notifications not coming through when a form is submitted. I have re-entered our emails a couple of times, and it works for a while and then stops sending the email.
I am not sure if I am not entering them correctly?
