It was built by stone, ashlar and brick. Part of the main salon is a former church from the XIIIth century, which still preservs its monumental nature.

The 2015 Central PA Writing Contest announced its winners earlier this year at a York College event. Two winners were selected from 248 qualifying entries consisting of original, unpublished work.
First place went to Janet F. Cincotta for her work "Liar, Liar." Cincotta grew up in western NY where she acquired a passion for deep snow. She now occupies an empty nest with her husband on a hilltop overlooking the town of Wellsville. A family physician for over thirty years, she retired in order to devote her time to writing. Janet earned a Bachelor of Science degree in medical technology from the University of Vermont, and her M.D. at Upstate Medical Center in Syracuse, NY. Her stories have appeared in "Empower-Women's Stories of Breakthrough, Discovery and Triumph," The Storyteller Magazine, and in U.S. Catholic Magazine. Janet posts a weekly literary blog and is presently at work on a book about faith.
The runner-up prize went to Susan J. Newell for her work titled "Lamplighter." Newell came to central Pennsylvania 25 years ago. Before that, she resided in the Adirondack region of New York, an area that frequently appears in her writing. After working many years in sales, marketing and technical support, Susan returned to school for an MFA in Writing, which she earned from Goddard College in 2001. Since then, she has worked as a professional writing tutor at Penn State Harrisburg, an ESL coach, an editor, and a creative writing instructor. Her short stories have appeared in Blueline and in the Bellevue Literary Review. Susan misses the NY mountains, but has grown to love the farmland near her home in Hershey, where she lives with her husband and their cat, Eeyore.
Each manuscript was reviewed by one preliminary judge, either Professor Vito Grippi, Professor Amity Bitzel, or Dr. Travis Kurowski, all of York College. Through their rigorous efforts, the field of entries was whittled down to 14 short stories. Then, final round judges went to work: Ms. Jennifer Palik, Editor of Central PA Magazine, Stefan Becket, Author and Writer-In-Residence, Dr. Travis Kurowski of York College, and Kathleen Pavelko.
Martha Popp slipped a black cashmere turtleneck over her best black satin bra and settled a single strand of real pearls around her neck. She ran a brush through her blonde-out-of-a-bottle hair, massaged expensive anti-wrinkle moisturizer/sunblock/bronzer into her sagging cheeks, and added a touch of blush to bring up the color. It took a second coat of mascara to thicken her eyelashes and twelve-hour gloss to soften her lips. She liked to look her best when she went out. Not that it mattered anymore.
She stepped back and studied her reflection in the mirror. The woman who stared back at her bore none of the grace and elegance she had cultivated with such diligence over the years. It was as though her body had refused to cooperate with her efforts at regular exercise, adequate hydration, and proper nutrition. Her knees ached, and her skin hung in loose wrinkles like an unpressed blouse. How had it come to this, she wondered.
Martha recalled her mother at this age, her dentures clacking, her gray hair knotted in a bun on the top of her head, shuffling from room to room in a billowing housecoat, fuzzy pink slippers, and Depends. Depends! How humiliating.
Enough of this, she thought. She straightened her shoulders and gave her head a toss. She flicked a bit of lint off her sleeve, picked up her pocketbook, and headed downstairs. Now, if she could just find her keys.
She rummaged through her purse. Out came her compact and mirror, her wallet and checkbook, her nail file and comb, a handful of loose coins, a couple of crumpled gum wrappers, and a soiled tissue, everything piled on the kitchen table. She patted her pockets to no avail. Her keys weren't on the counter, or on the stand by the door. What had she done with them? Her appointment was at ten o'clock and she liked to be on time.
Just then her daughter wandered into the kitchen.
"Ali, have you seen my car keys?"
"I have 'em, Mom." She held them up and gave them a shake.
"I thought I'd drive today."
Martha knew this was coming. She took it to imply that, in her daughter's opinion, she shouldn't be driving. That she was a menace on the roads. And what exactly had she done to deserve this? One tiny dent. Fifty-eight years behind the wheel and it took one dent for her daughter to declare her unfit to drive. And it wasn't even her fault. If a squirrel hadn't dashed out in front of her, she wouldn't have swerved and hit the curb.
"I can drive," she insisted.
"I don't mind taking you. Then we can get some lunch."
As if soup and a salad excused the insult to her dignity, Martha thought. Since when had she morphed into a bungling idiot?
"I'm perfectly capable of driving myself. I'll meet you for lunch afterward," she said. "Calabria's?"
She held her hand out and raised one eyebrow expectantly. Ali clenched the keys in her fist.
"Ali, my keys."
"Mom. Really?"
Ali handed them over with a scowl. "You be careful," she said. She gazed heavenward as if to invoke divine intervention on behalf of her mother's safety.
"I saw that," Martha said as she headed out the door.
She backed out of the driveway, and waved to her daughter who was watching at the window. She pulled out into traffic, merged onto the freeway, and took the correct exit with no difficulty at all. When she got to the salon, though, the parking lot was nearly full. She tried three times before she managed to pull into the last tight spot. Before she left her car she touched up her lipstick and fluffed her hair. She was long overdue for a haircut and color.
The young woman at the reception desk looked up when she walked in. "Good morning, Mrs. Popp."
"I have a ten o'clock appointment with Yvonne," Martha said.
"Today?" The receptionist looked perplexed. Then she smiled. "Oh, here it is. I'm sorry, but your appointment is next Tuesday."
"Next week? Are you sure?"
"Next Tuesday at ten." The woman pointed to her name on the schedule. "It's right here."
"Oh, of course. How silly of me." The color rose in Martha's cheeks. She was sure she'd checked her date book.
"It's okay. We all make mistakes. We'll see you next week, then."
Martha hurried out the door. No, it isn't okay, she thought. It looks as though my head is sprouting dandelions. And what am I going to tell Ali? That I had the wrong day? The wrong week? I'll never see my car keys again. The next thing you know I'll be drooling onto a bib, wearing goddamn Depends. And look at that. It's starting to rain.
* * *
Ali watched from the front window as her mother backed out of the driveway and pulled into traffic. After the last incident--the run-in with the squirrel--she worried about her mother's driving. This was how it started with her father. Every so often he forgot to keep an appointment or neglected to pay a bill. One time he dented the freezer in the garage when he pulled in too fast. All that food, wasted. The day they finally took his keys away he'd taken a wrong turn on the way to church, and ended up somewhere in New Jersey. She hated to think what lay ahead.
By the time Ali left the house, the rain had picked up. The wipers barely kept ahead of the back splash coming off the cars in front of her. She was running late so she thought about calling her mother, but then she decided against it. Her mother needed to keep her eyes on the road, not fumble with her phone in this weather. As it was, the woman would be frantic about the rain having just had her hair done, never mind driving through a monsoon.
Without warning, traffic slowed to a crawl. There must be an accident up ahead, she thought. It never fails. A little rain and look what happens.
Then it struck her. What if it were her mother up ahead? Overturned in a ditch, or pitched down an embankment? She knew she shouldn't have allowed her mother to drive that day.
The accident scene was too far away for her catch a glimpse of it, so Ali reached into her purse and groped around until her fingers closed around her phone. She glanced at the screen, pulled up her mother's number, and hit "call."
The moment her eyes left the road, she felt the jolt. She panicked as she skidded into the car in front of her. She hit the brakes, spun around, and landed with a sickening thud in the median. Her car sank into the mud.
Before she knew what to think, her phone lit up. "Hello, Ali? Is that you?" The knot in her back loosened a bit at the sound of her mother's voice.
"Mom? Are you okay?"
"Of course I'm okay, but where are you?" her mother asked. "It's getting late."
Ali's hands shook as she tried to collect her thoughts. How was she going to explain this one? Honestly, her cell phone?
"I'm stuck in traffic," she said. "There's an accident on the freeway. How about I just meet you at home? We can do lunch another day."
"Are you sure? Is it bad?"
"Looks like I'm going to be here for a while," Ali said. Until I can get somebody to tow me out of this mess, she thought.
It was after five by the time she pulled into the driveway, her car caked with mud, a fresh dent in the fender. Her mother met her at the door.
"Oh my! What happened? You said there was an accident but not that you were in it."
"I wasn't. But we were at a dead stop when some guy skidded into me," she lied. "The rain, you know?" "Trust me, I know."
Martha ran her fingers through her disheveled hair. "Just look at me."
"But weren't you supposed to get your hair cut today?"
"They forgot my appointment. I had to reschedule it for next week."
"People are so careless." Ali wagged her head. "And then, the guy who hit me lied about it. He made it sound like it was my fault. That I hit my brakes and he couldn't avoid sliding into me." "The girl at the desk lied, too," Martha said. "She tried to blame it on me, like it was my mistake. And it was right there on my calendar. Tuesday at ten. "
"It's a shame, the excuses people make up."
"Liars, both of them."
His son had let it slip three weeks earlier when they met at McDonald's for breakfast. Even though the place was full of kids, and Jack had trouble hearing, he got the gist.
"Guess Josie's daughter is running it," Tyler said. "Can't imagine it was cheap to fix up after all these years."
Jack knew it wasn't cheap. After the fire at the diner, he had reached out to the daughter, offered some help if she wanted to reopen. She had said "thanks, but no," and then there was the click as she hung up the phone.
"Maybe we should take a drive up and have lunch some weekend," Tyler said. But Jack was way ahead of him.
Jack wasn't stupid; he knew he'd have to give up driving some day, just like he'd given up the trailer near the old family farm and found an apartment downtown. Just like he'd agreed to Tyler's wife dropping off dinner twice a week. But Jack no sooner wanted Tyler to drive him north than he wanted to spend the afternoon with Tyler's mother discussing the benefits of Jesus. Besides, driving to the diner was easy-peasey, to use his granddaughter's favorite phrase.
"Eeezy peezy, Pop-pop. Just look." She'd taken the cell phone from his stiff and knotty fingers, pushed a few buttons, and handed it back. On the screen was the photo Tyler had taken of her wearing camouflage and a princess crown for Halloween.
Except for the hint of snow, the day was perfect. He drove straight up 9N through a now-sleepy Lake George village. The water was steel gray, and the shoreline sloped up behind the naked trees. He'd given up many homes in his life but never the feeling of home in this 50-mile stretch of wilderness. The sun momentarily blinded him when it poked through heavy clouds. Jack slid the hanging prism off the rear view mirror and dropped it in the cup holder between the seats.
Hunting season had started and with it came all the Fridays he'd traveled this route, stopping at the diner before joining Tyler's uncles for a weekend at camp. Jack rarely hunted, but after a day in the woods the guys devoured his chili before settling in for poker. He was also known for a collection of raunchy jokes, some of which Jack told so often that the punch lines became a secret code between the men on holidays when the women in Dottie's family called forth the gods of Hallmark. Jack continued going to camp after Dottie asked for the divorce, right up until she announced she was getting back together with husband number one.
The Lamplighter name glistened gold on the new redwood sign. Bordered by evergreens, the parking lot was now blacktopped, and there was a handicap spot next to the door. Jack took another, even though a piss-poor knee replacement had earned him a tag that made him legal. His visor mirror revealed thin white hair that needed only fingers to comb. His eyes were dull brown behind heavy-framed glasses, surrounded by laugh lines that were a legacy to good times.
Inside the diner, gray walls sapped some of the old warmth. Jack considered a stool at the counter but then chose a booth. When a young man approached with a menu, Jack resisted the urge to stare at the gold nose post and barbed wire tattoo around his wrist. There were no illuminated beer signs anymore, no brews on the menu, but it was just as well. Sitting next to the window, Jack saw his car was parked over the white line. He ordered a Pepsi.
Meatloaf, mashed potatoes and cherry pie had been his favorites. Josie used to kid that there was no more Coors unless he finished his peas.
"Damn canned peas," he told her. "Why don't you use frozen?"
"Life's cold enough around here," she said. "People like canned."
Jack had been newly single, but she was not. It started as harmless flirting, harmless as a butterfly. Funny how he remembered a punch line even though the joke's set up was long forgotten. If they had left it at hunting season, it would have run its course and been over. But after Jack bought the fishing dinghy, he stopped at the diner for pancakes on his way up to Carroll Pond and again for dinner as he headed south. Josie's husband spent days on the road hauling logs and was a bit absent minded. The affair lasted almost three years. Then, the absent mindedness got diagnosed as Alzheimer's. Josie gave Jack the prism at their last rendezvous.
"Light changes everything," she said.
The menu included turkey wraps, black bean soup and a southwestern salad. Down in the lower right corner was a short list of Classics, where Jack spotted a reuben with fries.
The sandwich turned out to be sloppy and good. He took his time as he ate, watched some hunters come in and hang their orange coats on pegs near the door. They ordered a lot of food and laughed loudly. When they were done, they counted bills from their wallets, and scraped chairs across the floor before retrieving their coats and heading outside.
One of the pickups was parked next to Jack's old Ford. The driver looked down at the car's angle in the spot before climbing up into his truck and saying something to his buddy. Both men laughed. Jack watched them banter as they fastened their seatbelts and backed out of the spot, the loud truck not drowning out the nature of their joke.
His loneliness followed the truck into the north woods. It was a frequent companion of age and two divorces. He sighed deeply and turned his attention to the warm apple crisp with its melting scoop of vanilla that the waiter put down in front of him. The food softened the hard feelings of his past, the places Jack avoided out of fear of regret. No one rushed him to finish as the diner emptied. He held a hot cup of decaf between hands that had served him long and well on the GE assembly line. Next to his booth hung a landscape of Adam's Lake where Jack had caught his biggest rainbow ever. The old diner felt more familiar after lunch, even if it was a shadow of its former self.
The waiter dropped off the bill and the credit card, and wished Jack a good day. Then he lingered as Jack put the card in his wallet.
"Grandma Josie says thanks for coming." Jack raised his head to scan the empty diner. "Josie's here?" The waiter nodded. He turned and looked towards the mirrored glass behind the counter.
"She recognized your name on the card. Says you're an old friend." Jack smiled, wondering if she would have recognized him without the card. "Can I see her?"
The young man shook his head. "Comes in to help with the books, but stays in the office. Prefers to spy on people." Then he laughed. "Calls herself 'I-Spy'."
Jack added a tip and signed his receipt. He wrote his phone number on the top of the bill and pried himself out of the booth. The kid picked up Jack's coat from the other seat and opened it up for him.
"Thanks," Jack said, feeling awkward but appreciating the gesture. He reached for the receipt on the table and handed it to the young man. "Tell her to call me sometime, okay?"
The waiter glanced at the slip. "Sure."
Jack fished out his gloves and turned toward the mirrored wall. He waved his hand at his reflection and blew a kiss.
As the car warmed up he thought about the grease fire that had burned Josie and destroyed the diner. When Jack stopped by the hospital, he did not see the bandages around her head and hands. Instead, he saw how her green eyes were tinted blue, the way they always did when she was about to say something serious.
"Leave," she said. "Please." Of course there'd be scars she didn't want him to see.
Whenever women told Jack to go, he went. Was it because he, too, was bored? He could never tell what they wanted. Perhaps what they had really wanted was for him to stay. There was no point looking back for answers. They were not just older now, but on the other side of aging. All they had were these small moments of illumination.
Jack turned off the car and got out. He put the gloves back in his coat pocket and re-entered the diner. He walked to the counter, where he chose a stool directly in front of the mirrored wall. Josie's grandson was taking glasses and cups from a dishwasher bin. Otherwise, the place was empty.
"Tell her to come out," Jack told the young man. "And I'll buy her a cup of coffee."

Read last year's 1st and 2nd place Winners]]>
The 2014 Central PA Writing Contest announced its winners earlier this year at a York College event. Two winners were selected from 109 qualifying entries consisting of original, unpublished work.
First place went to Kim Daly Nobbs of Lancaster for her work titles "Cracks of Gray in Black and White." The runner-up prize went to Kirsten Crawford of Carlisle for her work titled "The Loneliest Number."
Each piece was reviewed by one of the preliminary judges – York College professors Vito Grippi, Jaleasha Ruth or Dr. Travis Kurowski, and by final judges – Ted Sickles editor of Central PA Magazine; Thomas Sayers Ellis, author and writer-in-residence; Dr. Travis Kurowski of York College; and WITF President Kathleen Pavelko.
Lola felt sick as she walked up to the casket to pay her respects to the man she had left 15 years before. Frank looked so different, so dead, his too-pink lips stretched into an eerie half smile. His dark hair, always so wild and lively, now with streaks of gray, was neatly parted and tamed into a ponytail. She noticed that the suit he wore was too big, and she felt a slow but persistent veil of sadness descending over her.
Lola had thought Frank would live forever. He was that kind of man. Too mean to die—at least at the end. She wasn't exactly sure why she was here, but she had felt compelled.
She turned from Frank after just a few moments, left without being seen and drove the familiar drive from the church to The Bunker.
"The Bunker"—that's what everyone in town had called the place where she and Frank had settled when they moved here. They did what they could to make it their own. Gus, always sunshine, had called it "Home Sweet Home," despite its many faults. The three of them had made a sign one Saturday and placed it out front. "Home Sweet Bunker," it said.
Kim Daly Nobbs is a writer and chief marketing officer for Willow Valley Communities, a senior living organization in Lancaster Country. Nobbs is studying with Melissa Greene of Write from the Heart in Lancaster. She is originally from New York City and now lives in Lancaster with her son, Patrick, and their black lab, Calypso.
And now Lola sat in her Prius in front of the old sign, in front of this place where so much had happened and not happened. Lola reached into the pocket of her jacket and pulled out the letter Frank had sent. The letter she had read and reread since she'd received it via FedEx three days ago.
The content was clear, concise and far more eloquent than she could imagine Frank managing. "Dear Delores," it began, in his unmistakable handwriting. Frank had been the only person to ever call her Delores. Lola had liked the way her given name sounded on Frank's lips, when he whispered it in her ear.
Lola snapped herself back from her memory. She hadn't thought of Frank as anything more than an angry drunk since she left this sad little town years ago.
But this letter was from another kind of person, a man who had "done his work," as her therapist liked to say. In the letter, he talked about regrets, about not being present to her (he actually used the word "present") when Gus had died. About the fact that, though there had been women since, none ever understood him or penetrated his heart like she had. He asked for forgiveness. He said that it had been 10 years since he moved from the home that they had shared. But somehow he just couldn't let it go. "Even though it's no showplace, it was ours," Frank had written finally. And then: "I'm not going to make it, Delores. You should have the house or figure out who should have it. You're still in it."
Lola felt a dull ache in the back of her head. It had taken her years to undo the damage of her former life. Frank had been dead to her for years, and now, here he was, actually dead but prying his way back consciousness.
The Bunker was below grade, with three steps down to the front door. Corrugated sheet metal had been placed over a wood frame structure that resembled a windowed 18-wheeler that had lost its wheels. By the time she had left, the place was a mess. Frank had piled garbage and recycling everywhere, almost blocking the entrance. But all that was gone now.
The dead Dodge Dart sat where it last stalled and had become part of the landscape design—easily the most colorful thing in the place. Its apple red paint had dulled to a weathered watermelon. Now, in the spring, dandelions grew up all around it. Splashes of yellow against the watermelon, the black tires. She walked over to it. If it had been in an avant garde sculpture garden, some might have thought it beautiful. To Lola, it was just a sad monument to a life gone wrong.
The hand-me-down couch from Frank's sister was in the same place, in all its burgundy and tan woven glory. She ran her hand over the coarse fabric, remembering how she always made sure there was a blanket between the "itchy" couch and Gus's sweet skin. The kitchen was clean, except for the dust. There were even two places set at the counter, as if she and Frank were about to share breakfast together.
She surveyed the rooms. They all looked pretty much the same, only neater. When she had left, she had pulled out all of her clothes, taking only her favorite ones. Someone had taken that pile and carefully put the clothes away. She hadn't really thought about life going on for Frank here after she left. But of course life did, such as his life was.
When they married, Lola was 18 and pregnant. She loved Frank then, and they loved the baby. But then Gus got sick, and Frank changed. He became distant and lazy and arrogant. And huge. Not all of him, he was a wiry man in most respects. Just his beer belly and his oppressive spirit. Those became huge.
She sat on the itchy couch and thought she smelled Gus somewhere beyond the mustiness. She thought about the boy and the first time she had left this place.
Gus was three when they found out he wouldn't likely make it to four. He hadn't been right all summer before the diagnosis. Lola would wake to his soft crying and find him with his wavy brown hair plastered to his sweaty forehead. "My legs feel ouchy, Mama," he'd say softly. Three months of trips to the doctor with no one seeming to pay attention to the fact that her boy was fading away.
One day, when Lola got home from work, she found Frank on the couch with Gus. The TV was blaring. Sesame Street. One of Gus's nostrils was stuffed with a tissue full with bright red blood. His light blue shirt and little hands were dotted with speckles of brown. Frank was in a deep, drooling sleep with the remote in his hand, three emptied Genesee cans on the table and one on the floor.
That was the first time she left. To his credit, Frank showed up at her parents' house in Philly the next day. After a week at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, they had a verdict. Leukemia—not the good kind. Lola and Gus stayed with her parents, close to the pediatric oncologist that had given them only a needle's eye of hope. Frank drove down on the weekends. And after nine excruciating months, Gus's suffering ended.
Frank and Lola found each other again, momentarily, in their broken-heartedness, and when he had begged Lola to come back upstate with him, she had agreed. As she began to accept that Gus was really gone, though, Lola's entered the endless mind-blowing purgatory of childless motherhood. The thought of looking for work exhausted her, and her parents kept sending checks. She'd spend whole days expertly thumbing across photos on her phone, looking at pictures of the boy. Sometimes she sat with the laptop, a heavy, antiquated hand-me-down from her father, so she could really see his eyes, be transported by his smile.
Lola fell in love with her grief. It was what sustained her. She loved to roll it around in her mouth like a pineapple lifesaver, sweet but with that tinge of sharpness. It went on that way for six more years. Frank became a meaner drunk, life got worse. It was her best high school friend Maggie who had convinced her to leave. "You have one life," Maggie was fond of saying. "And this is not how you want to spend it."
When Lola left, it had felt like she could leave her grief there, too, peeling it off like the Elmer's glue she used to peel off Gus's fingers after they'd done a craft project. She intended to take only the sweet memories with her. And as far as Frank was concerned, Lola began the process of revising their life together, so that it went from messy gray to clean black and white.
Now, sitting on their couch, she felt the heavy, unresolved grief of her denial of the delicious complexity of her relationship with Frank. And somehow Lola felt more at home than she had in years. More than in her parents sprawling home, in her beautiful condo with her second ex-husband, in the Philadelphia brownstone she now lived in. Lola let the heaviness overtake her, as she sunk into the couch. Suddenly she knew, as surely as she had ever known anything, that Frank was right. She was still in this place and she wanted to take back the pieces of herself she had left here. She needed to.
Weeping softly, Lola's heart broke open again, and life began to seep back into the cracks.
He dings the bell. The spiked collar looks ridiculous on his lanky frame. What a tough boy, she thinks with an acerbity she can taste. He looks askance at her from the corner of one brown eye as if sensing that he strikes a wrong note. The collar's allusion tires her; but Craig will put it on again if she removes it.
She wants to go back to bed. He looks at her, this time with insistence, and dings again, making the bell sound more loudly. All right. He needs it. She has no choice but to accommodate him even at this ungodly hour. She exhales, noting her visible breath in the dim room as she cracks the door just wide enough to let him pass.
She feels the involuntary contraction of each follicle on her skin's surface as she steps outside. The flesh beneath the hair on his spine shivers too, and his low groan sounds almost human. Too late, she snaps fully awake as she realizes they removed the doorstop to keep him safe. She forgot and let the handle bump against the wall as she shut the door.
Shit. She always pays for her caustic little observations, she thinks. Now they are locked out and she is stuck, dressed like a teenager in only a T-shirt and clogs. The forecast was correct: it is snowing. She watches the driving flakes turn the yard into a saccharine confection as she holds herself and shifts from foot to foot. The contrast between the patio's glittering surface and her backyard purpose adds another layer of irony as she waits for the dog. She calls him, air jetting from her lips with the impatience of a chain smoker's exhalation.
He can warm her legs while she figures out how to solve their dilemma. With sympathetic prescience, he positions himself between her body and the door and leans heavily against her as if his energy has suddenly left him. She returns his pressure with her shins as they both yawn.
The sleep deprivation is starting to get to her. How can her husband possibly sleep through the dog's imperative rings? She awakens immediately. With the trips down to a single nightly excursion, however, they normally would be inside by now. She would be hugging the puppy against her chest to take the edge off of the chilly air as they go back to bed. Craig would roll over and drape a leg over one of her icy ones as she slides between the sheets. The dog would circle twice before dropping solidly at her feet.
She checks the small window near the door; also locked. She climbed through a similar one to unlock the back door many times after her father misplaced his keys when she was a child. At the thought, she can almost feel the propelling thrust of his shove; and she catches a whiff of a rank and tangy odor like the one that was always on his breath, a rotten-leaf mixture of tobacco and beer.
She shakes her head and notices the snowflakes come together into large clusters as if they are magnetic. They spiral downward with an inevitable, yet lazy slowness. Watching their hypnotic descent, she feels a tingling, responsive pull that signals her body's settlement into sleep. Shaking her head, she fights the feeling. No sleep for the weary when your toes feel like chunks of quartz.
Why didn't she think to grab a robe before coming downstairs? Better yet, why doesn't she own a bullhorn? She could leave it on the back stoop. The neighbors would hear something that loud. Craig, in contrast, is completely immovable, especially in sleep. During his Desert Storm command, he did not even awaken to his sergeant's panicked yells when pieces of an exploded Humvee hit his tent. She could have warned the man about how deeply Craig slept; waking him had been impossible when the kids were little.
The worst was with their youngest. The pediatrician insisted that she stop nursing, so Craig had to put their son back to sleep every night. She remembers insistently shaking him, leaking milk and tears all over the sheets, wondering how the denial of comfort could address the problem of an underweight baby. She had bitten her tongue and deferred to the doctor; and Craig always agreed with him anyway, so the nights fell into a predictable pattern of delayed response to their son's distress. Once his cries reached a certain frantic pitch, she forced Craig out of bed with a well-placed kick, aware that her perverse pleasure in the act measured the depths of their trouble.
To this day, Craig does not recall their nightly struggle. He comments on being exhausted by childrearing, which galls her a little; but, even when considering those awful nights, she knows their home was filled with a kind of happiness and a shared sense of purpose. Now she wishes they were still living in that house because its doorbell could give you a heart attack. She remembers how, at age five, their son would ring its bell and run away, peeking around the corner with a cheeky grin when she answered it.
What a circular accumulation of karma life is, she thinks ruefully, especially my particular assemblage of door-related frustrations. Maybe she can jimmy the lock. She scans the ground for a tool and riffles half-heartedly through her hair for a bobby pin. Nothing. The dog licks a flake from her slipper as she checks his paws for discoloration. He then moves off the step, nuzzling deeply in the snow as he searches for bunny pellets, a disgusting habit she cannot break. Her eyes trace the looping cursive of rabbit tracks. Does it say "Best wishes?" she wonders for a surreal moment before shaking her head. They need to get inside.
She also needs that bullhorn, or a noisier pup. The neighbor had suggested the bell; but if the dumb dog was normal, he would make a racket at the door and rouse the neighbors. Then she could stay at their house until Craig awakens at five o'clock. She briefly envisions the alternative: two bodies curled in permanently passive attitudes beneath a thick layer of snow.
She gives the door a hard whack, knowing its futility. Curse Craig's love of old houses with thick plaster walls. Curse their bedroom's location and how her knuckles smart with each rap. Her hands feel like they are wrapped in oddly prickly cotton. The beginnings of frostbite? She adds forearms to curled fists, thumping emphatically as a gust of wind whooshes under her shirt and flames against her skin. The searing sensation travels upward and envelops her torso, reminiscent of the blasted hot flashes that helped get her into this mess. She ignores the pulsing ache and pounds harder, throwing her whole body into the effort.
The jarring screech of metal against solid rock makes her stop. For a millisecond, she thinks the sound comes from her half-frozen limbs. Then she realizes it is a snowplow working the street below the house. The leafless woods cannot muffle its powerful rumble as it nears their long driveway. She will have to descend the hill.
She hastily wipes her cheek, catching the slight sway of window curtains out of the corner of her eye. Thank God! She hooks a snowflake on the curve of her tongue, its airy lightness a celebration; but then a pink nose appears, pushing further through the gap between the curtains' panels. Her heart falls. It is only the cat, alerted by the commotion. She wants to kill it.
She is wasting time on emotion. She needs to take action. A woman emerging from the thick stand of trees will give the driver a real start at this hour. Her slim, barely concealed form might give him a little jolt of something else too. Until he notices the wrinkles, she thinks wryly. She shivers and imagines the cab's heady heat. She will ignore how the driver cannot meet her eyes, but she will not hesitate to make use of his guilt. She might even ask him to take her somewhere.
It will be several hours before Craig awakens to a home devoid of wife and dog. She thinks of him, asleep with a foot dangling beyond the comforter's edge, his big toe like the head of a turtle that has curled too far out of its shell. If she had the energy, this thought would irritate her, help her make other decisions. She sighs. The dog returns, plodding heavily through the snow as if coming home after hours of impossibly dreary work. The shock of his wet nose as he nudges her calf galvanizes her. She scoops him into the crook of her arm, pressing his artlessly convivial face against her cheek as she turns her back on the door.

Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
Pope Francis flexed his papal muscles yesterday by skipping a concert where he was to be the guest of honor. Instead of being entertained, he spent his time working and said that bishops should not have "the mentality of a prince."

Keywords: Pope Francis, concert, entertainment, Curia, work, replacement
VATICAN CITY (Catholic Online) - The classical concert was scheduled in March, before his election, but he was still to be the guest of honor. However instead of performing for the Holy Father, the musicians played before a great white, empty chair.
Minutes before the start of the concert, a spokesperson entered and told the crowd that an "urgent commitment that cannot be postponed" detained Pope Francis and was preventing him from attending.
The crowd was assured that health was not the reason for the no-show.
The actual reason is that Pope Francis was working and he does not care much for concerts and other entertainments. The day before, he admonished this bishops to be "close to the people" and not to have "the mentality of a prince."
Meanwhile, it is believed that Pope Francis was spending his time working on new appointments for the Curia.
The Curia needs change since this is where scandal appears to have rooted within the Vatican, although details remain murky. Pope Francis has dedicated his first months in office to reorganizing the Curia to operate in a manner he feels is most consistent with the mission of the Church.
These changes are expected to occur within the next few months.
Meanwhile, Pope Francis continues to eschew the limelight and privilege of the papacy, being far more contented to live a simple life of labor and love. He continues to reside in a Vatican guesthouse, eats his meals in a common area, and does not use a private chapel for Mass.
Pope Francis is something of a maverick, but he is decidedly what the Church needs. Clearly, the Cardinals of the Church listened to the voice of God and Francis was elected for a reason. His most recent no-show wasn't a publicity stunt, but rather a genuine sign of how hard he is working for all of us.

Acute viral hepatitis morbidity and mortality associated with hepatitis E virus infection: Uzbekistan surveillance data

BMC Infectious Diseases 2009, 9:35 doi:10.1186/1471-2334-9-35Published: 25 March 2009
In Uzbekistan, routine serologic testing has not been available to differentiate etiologies of acute viral hepatitis (AVH). To determine the age groups most affected by hepatitis E virus (HEV) during documented AVH epidemics, trends in AVH-associated mortality rate (MR) per 100,000 over a 15-year period and reported incidence of AVH over a 35-year period were examined.
Reported AVH incidence data from 1971 to 2005 and AVH-associated mortality data from 1981 to 1995 were examined. Serologic markers for infection with hepatitis viruses A, B, D, and E were determined from a sample of hospitalized patients with AVH from an epidemic period (1987) and from a sample of pregnant women with AVH from a non-epidemic period (1992).
Two multi-year AVH outbreaks were identified: one during 1975–1976, and one during 1985–1987. During 1985–1987, AVH-associated MRs were 12.3–17.8 per 100,000 for the general population. Highest AVH-associated MRs occurred among children in the first 3 years of life (40–190 per 100,000) and among women aged 20–29 (15–21 per 100,000). During 1988–1995 when reported AVH morbidity was much lower in the general population, AVH-associated MRs were markedly lower among these same age groups. In 1988, AVH-associated MRs were higher in rural (21 per 100,000) than in urban (8 per 100,000) populations (RR 2.6; 95% CI 1.16–5.93; p < 0.05). Serologic evidence of acute HEV infection was found in 280 of 396 (71%) patients with AVH in 1987 and 12 of 99 (12%) pregnant patients with AVH in 1992.
In the absence of the availability of confirmatory testing, inferences regarding probable hepatitis epidemic etiologies can sometimes be made using surveillance data, comparing AVH incidence with AVH-associated mortality with an eye to population-based viral hepatitis control measures. Data presented here implicate HEV as the probable etiology of high mortality observed in pregnant women and in children less than 3 years of age in Uzbekistan during 1985–1987. High mortality among pregnant women but not among children less than 3 years has been observed in previous descriptions of epidemic hepatitis E. The high mortality among younger children observed in an AVH outbreak associated with hepatitis E merits corroboration in future outbreaks.

I am a 22 year old first time mom an i was just offered the job i have been waiting for for the past 2 years. My husband is in the Military and we have a 9 month old son that has not been away from me for more then 2 hours. This is a Federal career and i am not sure if i want to let it go to provide for our family. I LOVE staying home with our son because i know that he is doing things the way I want. and if i were to work he would stay with his Grandpa who has no respect for the way me and my husband raise OUR son. He was not around when my husband was growing up so he is trying to fill the gap in his heart by trying to play the "father" roll instead of the grandpa roll. I want to work because i want to set a good example for our son, and extra emergency money never hurts. But at the same time, i am not to fond of leaving our son with someone who DOES NOT respect how we raise OUR son. I just dont know what to do. I need help. Please, some advice.
Stay at home mom or dream job HELP
So happy to be C's mommy since 3/07 and K's mommy since 1/12
No, the job will not move me around. I am staying home with our son now because i LOVE taking care of him. He just turned 10 months 3 days ago and the last day we had a chance to talk to my husband (deployed in Army) was the FIRST time our son said Da Da!! I love being home with him. I am 22 years old and if something every God forbid happens to my husband, i have nothing to fall back on. How am i going to raise our son? With no work related experience on my belt no one would ever hire me.
I would look for a nanny and take the job, but that is me and my values. Grandpa can be a back up, or a temporary arrangement until a nanny is hired.
The cool thing is that if you start at 4am, you'll be home in time to see your son for a good part of the day. Maybe the nanny can stick around long enough for you to catch a nap, and then you'll really have the best of both worlds!
Life insurance...government employees even service members I imagine can get policies through work. My dh has one through work and personally. I personally have life insurance to provide for my kids if something happens to me...someone would have to be hired to care for the house and the kids. I have earning potential left in me for sure later on. I will never be unemployable. My career had nothing to do with my degree...they were VERY vaguely related yet I excelled. So I do not fear for the future.
As for moving...I may have worded myself wrongly. I meant when your dh is stationed elsewhere, will you job move with him? Can you transfer that job anywhere?
Ultimately its a big decision....but only one you can make. Other than worries or anxieties about futures that are not here...do you feel fulfilled and happy being home with you ds? Never underestimate how much they need you early on. Later on they need you less and less. You are 22. In 18 years you will be my age...with many years to work left in you. I worked when I was your age...I had kids a decade later on and worked in their early years....even when I didn't want to. Now I am home and know I'll be here for at least a decade more. Then I'll go back. Not sure if a new career or back to the same one I loved. I may want something more flexible than research.
I hope OP comes back and lets us know what she chose.
Angel 4/2011 @ 10 weeks
L+J = Rainbow AKB 12/30/2013
I am still unecided, I really want to take the offer, but then again it is hard to find a nanny/babysitter who can watch him at 4am. Does anyone know of a good TRUSTED place or website to find a nanny or babysitter? By the time i get accepted for the job im guessing will be in about 6 months to 1 year from now, so my son will be a way more mobile. His grandpa left him outside in his walker 2 TIMES back to back, i went outside, got my son really fast and brought him and the walker inside the house. And it scared his grandpa REALLY BAD. he came in the house and didnt want to tell me that he didnt know where my son was. BAD GRANDPA.So I WILL NOT be accepting the work offer unless i find someone RESPONSIBLE enough to watch him.
So happy to be C's mommy since 3/07 and K's mommy since 1/12
I would SAH with my child....I actually do. Yes, the extra money would be nice but I will NEVER get these years back. When I look back I bet you any amount of money I won't be saying "Boy I wish I worked and made money." I will look back at all the memories and be glad that I stayed home and got to see it all.
Well aren't you just a fun filled little lollipop tripled dipped in psycho!

The elegant Rocamar Hotel offers contemporary style and eagle-eye views of the Albufeiran coastline.
The views from this clifftop hotel take in the Atlantic Ocean and Albufeira's tumble of white buildings. Some steps just outside the hotel lead down the craggy cliff-face to the beach, or there's a lift just a minute's walk away.
The interiors have a striking monochrome palette, with cherry red sofas and neon orange corridors providing a splash of colour. Bedrooms are just as stylish, and you can upgrade to a superior room for extras like a Nespresso™ machine.

Win is paying a 10%+ dividend. As long as they are doing that it is impossible that it is overvalued

Rated 4 out of 5 by jangylee This hotel has great features good for Frankfurt visitor October 26, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Shivamon A great hotel in Frankfurt Highly recommend staying at this hotel if visiting Frankfurt. Conveniently located right across from Frankfurt main train station. Easy to get to the airport or other German cities. The hotel's lobby is well decorated and staff very friendly. As a Platinum member, the hotel has a choice to upgrade my room which they did to a larger room. The room and bathroom was very clean and the internet was fast. Food and other vendors located close by and easy to walk around the city from the hotel. No coffee facilities in the room but plenty of coffee places nearby as well as in the hotel. October 26, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by eams awesome experience Just one word would express my experience "Amazing" September 29, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by SouthTyrol not satisfied Reception was not able to take my address and my billing address correctly, even if I gave my addresses several times and I got promised, that next time it would be correct. It is very annoying. The Hotel doesn't offer a company rate without breakfast. The breakfast isn't really satisfactory. There are no fresh squezzed juices, bread has to be sliced by the client. Not much variety overall. Not all TV-Channels work, even if they are in the program list. A new set up would be highly appreciated September 26, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by TravDoc Front Desk Ladies The ladies which were working on the day of my arrival, and most importantly, my departure, were absolutely fantastic. Smiles, kind, helpful, such a great job. They need to train other SPG locations on excellent service. The really made me feel welcome, which when traveling, makes all the difference. My only regret, is that I should have taken down their names to give a reference. September 23, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Oleptha Good hotel with good location. Super good hotel - I like it... September 17, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Papri Everything outstanding except for WiFi The hotel, specially the old wing, is really beautiful, the staff at the front desk are extremely polite and helpful, and breakfast is really good. One big problem I have encountered several times during my stays is the WiFi : if you are using an Ipad, when you try to log in, the screen where you are supposed to insert your name and room number NEVER pops up. At the front desk they told me to insert in the address bar a certain formula, and then everything worked fine. I suggest to either repair the system properly, or inform your customers at check in of this formula, just to avoid wasting too much time trying and trying for nothing August 20, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by liesl19 My new favorite SPG! Wow. I like LeMeridian as a general matter, but the hotel staff at LM Frankfurt is extremely kind, responsive, and pleasant. The hotel is convenient, if not in the best neighborhood, but it's extremely quiet inside, leading to a great night's sleep. The restaurant was a little expensive, and my daughter found a metal saving in her pasta, so that was suboptimal, but it was dealt with quickly. The manager in the morning let me take a quick cup of coffee to go, the evening restaurant manager suggested a very pleasant wine & got an icepack for my daughters injured arm sent up... GREAT staff!! August 10, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by GB30 Excellent Location This was an older hotel which was completely renovated and kept the old world charm. It was immaculate and the staff were so knowledgeable and helpful. Absolutely loved it! August 8, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by I123 Mr Good hotel. Tidy, pleasant staff,. The facilities for the gym, sauna were not available, the room I was provided for my first stay was clean and tidy, but quote basic. August 8, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Bardo Excellent Le Meridien in Frankfurt is an excellent property conviniently located to the Train Station, shopping, restaurants, river and great city event locations.... August 5, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by MathewBerlin Great people and location for extensive business travels Hotel infrastrastructure plus great people from front desk to door man at the end of the stay provide what you whant to experience while staying. People understand the way most business travellers like to be treated in a hotel. July 31, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by TManNJ Very nice hotel This is a very nice hotel with an upgraded old world look to it. The executive room I upgraded to was on the top floor and had a heated floor in the bathroom and towel rack, although the toilet was in a very cramped area. Unlike many other facilities in Germany, this hotel actually had air conditioning that worked pretty well. The bed was comfortable, the room was sizable and quiet. July 25, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by SPADStaff Very helpful staff Not only are the facilities excellent but the staff are also very friendly and helpful. For example when I inquired about airport transfers, the hotel staff who responded, Ms. Irem Kakan, immediately responded that while it would be possible to arrange, the taxi service from the airport is much cheaper. Similarly, during checkout, when I mentioned that I would be leaving behind one luggage temporarily because I would be making two trips to get all my luggage to the railway station, the bellman, I didn't get his name, immediately stated that he would assist me and take my luggage right until the train platform. July 24, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by LoreleiG Luxurious Stay This hotel had exactly what I was looking for. The wonderful location, historic building, and fabulous rooms made my stay in Frankfurt really wonderful. The staff was very kind and flexible. No complaints! July 23, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Slamup5 The great feel of little things combine Starting with comfortable smiles while check-in, feel nice it right next to a little park! And Even better it is 10mins walk to the river. Stayed during World Cup period, you get to feel the energy of environment. The hotel give you a special city view from the gym room. July 19, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by Dragoon Good location My stay was better than last time I was there. And that was only because of the customer agent person that checked me in. Great attitude. Can't recall her name but I think she is Turkish/German. Still no lounge for platinum members and no breakfast included. Come on Meridien!! July 17, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Turms Excellent service The night receptionist, by name of Jushua Wehder, really focused on our request of providing us guidance on a planned visit to Rheingau region. We asked him for this at 11.30 pm. and the next morning when we left our room around 7 am, we had an envelope waiting for us for all the information required. I would like to thank the young gentleman personally, but since I am leaving today, I hope this reaches him at an appropriate time. July 15, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Soul Fantastic location Location is a plus with the comfortable environment of old and new. Atmosphere of the bar/lounge is very nice. July 7, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Andrey Great Hotel with an excellent service I was really astonished by the perfect service at the Hotel - the staff is very friendly, polite, competent and efficient. One of the best experiences among all my stays at the Starwood Hotels worldwide, pretty unexpected in Germany. July 7, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Nick291 Great service Even though the neighborhood is not really great, hotel has great staff and they provide truly nice services. High SPG recognition. Hotel is within walking distance to main attractions and central station from where you can take a train to the airport. The only downside is that the property has literally non-existent fitness center and needs to add some space and machines. June 8, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by TravelinLady Perfect Recent stay was perfect, it was a beautiful boutique hotel located very well to transportation, restaurants, and conference locations. Staff were so very helpful and pleasant. May 28, 2014

Rated 4 out of 5 by frankk75 Great and central place near Hauptbahnhof Very central place in Frankfurt near Main Train Station with very friendly staff. Good atmosphere in the hotel. Good access to S-Bahn and U-Bahn. May 11, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Tammy49 Staff in restaurant and front desk the best ever The staff at this hotel and restaurant always greet you with a smile and are so kind. The chefs always do a five star meal and the food is delivered with a happy face. Thank you once again for another wonderful meal. May 10, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Lapi very good hotel but ... if the room is against the bathroom of another room, you can hear the shower which can distrub the sleep. This is the first time I experienced this. All my other stays were perfect. April 26, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by Mattthew Sloppy Management Hotel facilities were fine, though food selection not great; but generally poor service lets it down. In the last 9 weeks different issues arise. This week (two nights only.. 1) my room service breakfast failed to arrive twice.. hence i was late for work 2) my internet didnt work on first night 3) hotel charged me in £gbp but couldnt give me a bill in GBP 4) morning call failed to happen on last day.

Windows Forms allows you to develop Components, non-visual elements that can have a designer. Built-in components include the BackgroundWorker, Timer, and a lot of ADO .NET objects.
