Product Description
From Kirkus Reviews
Follett (Night Over Water, 1991; The Pillars of The Earth, 1989, etc.) peeks into the naughty world of late Victorian merchant bankers. A tragic misadventure among schoolboys is at the root of the rotten world of the Pilaster family. Weak bully Edward Pilaster and his too-dear South American chum Mickey Miranda cause the death by drowning of a lad from the lower form at their minor public school and then grow up to become as corrupt as one might expect. Mickey murders his way to a sinecure in the London legation of his nitrate-rich Latin American homeland, and, with much help from his gorgeous, manipulative mum Augusta, Edward bumbles his way to a partnership in the immensely important family bank. The only really good Pilaster, aside from discreetly gay Uncle Samuel, is young Hugh, whose father left the family firm, founded his own bank, and then had to commit suicide when the bank foundered. Hugh is a born banker, but since he's so much smarter than cousin Edward, Aunt Augusta hates him and throws constant obstacles in his path. Against Hugh's advice, Mickey and Edward team up on a series of huge loans to Mickey's government--money that goes to the purchase of war materiel and the advancement of Mickey's thuggish father. On this rotten foundation, the Pilaster bank grows to Imperial preeminence and Augusta gets the earldom she wants for the husband she dislikes. Hugh, pining for the Polish-born, Jewish bareback- rider he loved and lost and still nursing his childhood memory of That Day At The Swimming Hole, gets nothing but grief until those shaky South American bonds finally collapse and he's really needed. Interesting financial tips and a sprinkling of naughty bits, but the rest is minor Masterpiece Theatre. (BOM ??) -- Copyright ©1993, Kirkus Associates, LP.

THE FACT: if you like Ken Follet, you will love this book. Set in ~1870, the story focuses on the Pilaster's, one of the richest banking family's in England. Over the course of the book, secrets are revealed, people are blackmailed, fortunes are gained and lost, and alliances are built and then broken. Both good and bad men and women rise and fall.
CONCLUSION: this is a superb read. The characters are vivid and extremely entertaining. The plot is tight, unique, and perfectly paced: fast, but not too fast. A great combination of drama, history, action, business, and romance. It did definitely remind me of Pillars of the Earth, except that it wasn't quite as depressing (Yay!) and the story moved a lot better.
Great job Ken. A MUST READ for any historical fiction fan!
Dangerous Fortune tells the story of the Pilaster Bank and its fall. Most of the characters seem to be stereotypes, forced into a role by their position in society. But I soon realized that was how real life was in 19th century London. Your roll in life was largely determined by your ancestors, your profession, or your title.
All characters acted like they were expected to, the loyal wives, the respected businessmen, the sons who were the heirs, but Follet shows us how they got around being respectful by gambling, visiting brothels, and lying and stealing. This book is full of intrigue and lust and greed. I liked that but I also enjoyed the educational aspect of what life was like for the upper class of England long ago. I assume Follet knows what he is talking about.
I recommend this book!
Augusta Pilaster is the scheming, socially conscious, self-appointed matriarch of the family. She is a woman who will stop at nothing to ensure that her reckless and easily manipulated husband, Joseph, and their indolent, dissolute, and lackluster son, Edward, will get and retain control of the Pilaster banking enterprise. Her machiavellian machinations, however, will eventually trigger the downfall of the family's fortune.
Hugh Pilaster, Augusta's nephew by marriage, is the Pilaster who has the brains and work ethic to take the Pilaster banking fortunes to a new level. His Achilles heel is that he seems destined to be attracted to working class women, a chink in his armor that Augusta Pilaster uses to her and her immediate family's advantage. He, too, is Augusta Pilater's unwitting pawn, until the day of reckoning comes.
Micky Miranda is the romantically handsome scion of a wealthy, unscrupulous, and power hungry South American businessman. Micky attended an exclusive school with Edward and Hugh Pilaster, when they were young. While there, tragedy struck when a mysterious swimming "accident" took the life of one of their friends, an event that was to shadow their lives in ways no one could have imagined. Micky Miranda would eventually enter into into a web of complicity with Augusta Pilaster that would impact on the fortunes of both the Miranda and Pilaster families.Read more ›

On defence, Mark Fayne and Brandon Davidson have switched spots.
Klefbom - Fayne

On the other side, Marian Hossa is expected to return to the lineup tonight for the Blackhawks after missing the team's last three games.
The Oilers are on the ice for morning skate at Rexall Place and these are the lines they're going with at the moment:
V PIT: Hall-Draisaitl-Eberle, Pouliot-RNH-Yak, Hendricks-Letestu-Purcell, Lander-Miller-Pak. Sekera-Nurse, Klefbom-Davidson, Reinhart-Gryba.

Matt Hendricks skated with the entire team for the first time since a foot injury sidelined him on October 18. He's missed the last five games.
Hendricks stated to the media following Thursday's morning skate that he feels he's anywhere from three to seven days away from a return to the lineup.
Best case scenario for @MattHendy26's return from his foot/ankle injury is three to four days, but he says it could be up to a week.
— Edmonton Oilers (@EdmontonOilers) October 29, 2015
One day after being denied of what looked like a sure game-tying goal with 3.8 seconds left from certain camera angles, the Oilers were talking about moving on.
"We have to shake it off. If we spend too much energy and focus on that, it's in the past right now. We have a new game tomorrow and we'll focus on that for sure," said defenceman Oscar Klefbom.
Coach McLellan added that he obviously wasn't happy with the call but felt it was important to compose himself.
"I may be calm on the outside and not so happy on the inside but there's nothing we're going to do to change it. If we're asking our team to have composure and to park situations or plays that maybe go against us — bad calls. We have to do the same as a management team and coaching staff. We're not happy but we can move on."
The bench boss also played devil's advocate.
"There can be a debate. I know if I was an L.A. King I'd be saying the right call was made. It can go either way. The call's done, it's over, we've moved on. Nothing we can do to change it now."
Oilers defenceman Justin Schultz left the game on Sunday 8:18 into the second period and did not return. The Oilers didn't have any further clarification on the extent of Schultz's injury following practice in Leduc on Monday.
"He had an evaluation this morning and we're awaiting the results. He's likely not playing tomorrow if he's not on the plane so we'll deal with it after that," Oilers head coach Todd McLellan said, adding that as a result of not knowing the extent of the injury, the next steps haven't been decided such as whether the team might call another defenceman up.
"Pete (Chiarelli) and I just met a couple minutes ago to discuss what the next step will be. We want to find out where Justin is before any decisions are made."
McLellan added that he has been happy with the play of Schultz so far, with the exception of one or two hiccups along the way.
"Justin's made strides for us all throughout training camp. He had a little bit of a setback against Washington but real good strides. His game is improving defensively. He's trying to figure out the offensive part of it but I think he's an important piece to our potential success now and moving forward. We'd like to see him get healthy and back as quick as possible."
With Schultz's injury coming partway through the game on Sunday, the rest of the five healthy blueliners had to step it up. Oscar Klefbom was asked about losing his defence partner.
"Obviously yesterday it was tough to lose Justin. He's one of the best defencemen, I think, on this team. It's tough without him but we have eight good defencemen who are ready to go every night so we'll be fine," said Klefbom.
The Oilers defenceman did add that he's glad to be getting some additional power play time. In fact, his unit was on the ice when the Oilers scored the tying goal late in the third period on Sunday night against the Kings.
"It felt good to be on the ice and it was a nice goal. I felt pretty bad it wasn't enough to go to overtime."
McLellan touched on the team's decision at the start of camp to carry eight defencemen. It's a decision that right now is paying off with two injured.
"Eight's not ideal but eight sometimes is important when it comes to injury, when it comes to developing young defencemen. We talked about asset management with Brandon Davidson and when you have a veteran that's sometimes not playing like Andrew's been in that situation, it makes it tough for him and it's not always pleasant," McLellan began.
"But he's handled it rather well. He's a professional. Those are some of the headaches with eight. Some of the positives are that we get everybody involved in reps. We save a little bit of energy on them and we get a chance to figure out what we want to do as a group."
Monday's practice in Leduc was a lot more mental than physical, with the team walking through a bunch of scenarios that it found itself in over the past two games. Oilers head coach Todd McLellan talked about the need for the team to refresh itself on these situations and also grab a bit of a breather during a tough portion of the schedule.
"We looked at where we were in the schedule and how many games we've played. We've had a taxing stretch and it's not going to get any easier until the end of this week so we didn't want to over-tax them physically. We wanted to challenge them mentally so we walked through some of the scenarios that we wanted to clean up," he said.
"We'd given up a couple of goals the last two games — important goals off neutral zone face-offs where our responsibilities really lacked. We cleaned up some things penalty kill so we walked through that and a couple game-specific drills for what we think Minnesota might throw at us."
McLellan added that these types of drills are nothing new to his coaching repertoire but perhaps they're required a little more often just given the players' familiarity with his strategies.
"We'd be doing it in San Jose. Now that group was seven years in some of them, they could do it in their sleep. This group is still learning to trust each other. Everybody has a good idea of what they're supposed to be doing but as soon as one guy doesn't quite get his job done, the trust breaks down and everybody's trying to cover up and it leads to more mistakes."
Defenceman Griffin Reinhart took part in a full practice for the first time since suffering his injury and moved one step closer to returning to the lineup.
"Griffin won't be playing in Minnesota (Tuesday) but he's getting close. You saw our practice today, it wasn't a real active practice but he'll get work in after," said Coach McLellan.
Reinhart said he's hoping to return soon and hopes that the birds-eye perspective he's had for a handful of games helps him as well.
"It's getting closer. It's not very fun watching, but at the same time, from up top the game looks different. You can learn a lot from up there and sometimes you feel like you're getting better from watching. But hopefully (I) get back in the lineup pretty soon."
The former Oil Kings blueliner was most frustrated with the fact that he was just starting to establish himself in the Oilers lineup when the injury occurred.
"It's kind of unfortunate, just starting to kick my career off and getting three games in a row. I felt like I was getting better every game and it's kind of a setback but it shouldn't be anything too hard to overcome."
One positive, if there is any, is that the injury is one that Reinhart has had before so he's familiar with the recovery process.
"I've had this injury before but it's not something where surgery is required or it's a chronic injury. It's usually about the same timeline that I'm on right now. I guess I'm used to playing with it a little bit so that's good for me. I know how to prepare for it and settle it down."
Griffin added that he is looking forward to getting back together with the team as he will be on the plane to Minnesota and will skate at Morning Skate at the Xcel Energy Center on Tuesday.
"It'll be nice. It kind of sucks going in early in the morning and practicing by yourself — or with Ebs too — but not even being out with them. It's been a bit distant from the guys so it'll be nice getting back with them."
Justin Schultz is not on the ice but seven other defencemen are: Brandon Davidson, Eric Gryba, Oscar Klefbom, Andrej Sekera, Andrew Ference and Griffin Reinhart. Reinhart is skating with the team at a full practice for the first time since his injury.
Forward lines are the same as last game:
The Oilers announced that they have recalled winger Andrew Miller from the AHL Bakersfield Condors. In four games, Miller has a goal and two assists for three points, including the first-ever goal in Condors history.
In the corresponding move, they placed forward Matt Hendricks (foot) on injured reserve.

Kathy Cassidy
First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

FormerAussie doesn't have a bio yet.
By: FormerAussie , 11:32 AM GMT on January 17, 2011
Friday morning I arrange for a climatologist to appear on a radio breakfast show. Her subject - the increase over more than 80 years of records of increasing frequency of heavy rain events in Northern England. www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-12151866 (And one record going back to 1745 - that's the year Bonnie Prince Charlie marched on London at the head of a Highland army!!)
Svere weather warnings swiftly followed. Between 2100 that night and around 1200 on Sunday, this county averaged more than 6 inches of rain - the sort of event that is now at least once most years, and used to be once every several years.
Couldn't have planned it better myself.

Fitting easily into a pocket, EXILIM CARD digital cameras are ready to go wherever their users go, so no one has to miss a once-in-a-lifetime photographic moment again.

Patient Comments: Henoch-Schonlein Purpura - Symptoms
What were the symptoms of your Henoch-Schonlein purpura?
Comment from: Jillnz, 19-24 Male (Caregiver) Published: November 04
My son had a bad case of Henoch-Schonlein purpura (HSP) at age 5. It was awful (pain, swelling, and not being able to move or walk), and his spots turned into blood blisters. I feel it really took a year before he was back to himself. He had protein in urine and had regular blood pressure (BP) checks that seemed good. He never got it back but at age 17 he developed high BP. We did all the tests and everything came back normal including his kidneys. He sees a cardiologist 1 or 2 times a year for a stress test. He is on 2 types of medicines to help control it. He is now 22. He is very fit, healthy, eats healthy and high BP does not run in the family. We have no idea of the cause, I would think it's from the HSP but we can't find anyone else that this has happened to.
Comment from: speduk8rs, 55-64 Female (Patient) Published: June 04
When I was a 13 year old, I developed a rash on my legs, my mother treated it as poison oak. After a week of the rash, my mom had me stay with one of my sisters. I had severe stomach pains so I was given aspirin for the pain. I stayed on aspirin for about 2 weeks and one morning I woke up sick to my stomach when I went to the bathroom I started to pass blood through my rectum and throwing blood up at the same time. I was hospitalized for 6 months before a diagnosis was made. I had one of the worst cases seen in that hospital. I had to go to a kidney doctor for a year. Then when I was in college I developed a rash, I went to a dermatologist who told me I didn"t have Henoch-Schonlein purpura (HSP), he did a biopsy and when the results came back, sure enough it was HSP. This time it was a milder case than the first time. I have a scar on my kidney and am being watched to make sure my kidneys work properly. The pain is so horrible, that I had to have very strong pain killers to be able to let covers touch my skin. Now I am in my 50s, I have scarring on my Kidneys.
Comment from: Dee, 35-44 Female (Patient) Published: February 04
I was diagnosed with Henoch-Schonlein purpura when I was 5 an am now in my 40s. We didn't have Google back then to research purpura like we do now, but I remember growing up, my parents made sure it was part of my health history. I had a severe case and my parents almost lost me. I lost a ton of weight and remember not being able to stand and nurses trying to get me to stand on a scale in the hospital. I remember ice baths for a high 105 temperature. The rash had spread from the tips of my toes to the roof of my mouth and the doctors had told my parents that if it went to my eyes I could go blind and to hope that it didn't go to my brain. Miraculously I recovered and have had no recurrences fortunately.
Comment from: 13-18 Female (Caregiver) Published: August 16
My daughter was diagnosed with HSP when she was about 2 years old. She's been sick off and on during the winter with vomiting/diarrhea. She was on her potty chair one morning and said her knees hurt. I didn't really see anything unusual but they progressively became more painful and by evening they were very swollen, warm to touch and she was unable to walk. When my husband arrived home from work her ankles and elbows were swollen as well. By the time we arrived at the ER that evening the purpura began and continue to worsen throughout the evening. The ER doc. loosely diagnosed her with possible juvenile rheumatoid arthritis and told us to follow up with pediatrician. We took her to pediatrician the next day. Our pediatrician was pretty confident it was HSP as soon as he saw her and after getting a urine sample and some blood work he diagnosed her with it. She did have kidney involvement. She was put on steroids as well as a narcotic pain med. The pain swelling and purpura subsided in about two weeks she continued to have blood in her urine for about two months. She is 13 now and has started having purpura around her eyes, her earlobes and sometimes on extremities. I have an appointment set with her pediatrician so hopefully we can make sure all is well soon.
Comment from: Tyu987, 7-12 Male (Caregiver) Published: July 22
Comment from: Mandy, 13-18 Female (Caregiver) Published: April 16
My son was 14 years old when he got Henoch-Schonlein purpura (HSP) and admitted into hospital, where the doctors didn"t have a clue to his condition. After treating him with the wrong antibiotics for 2 weeks they transferred him to another hospital. HPS had caused vasculitis, which had inflamed his kidneys, and his kidneys deteriorated. At 18 years of age he was put on kidney dialysis, then in September 2008 he had to undergo a kidney transplant, now in 2014 my son is 24 and is doing great. It just makes me still feel very angry that if he had been diagnosed and treated correctly he would never have had to suffer all the pain he went through.

Terrapins' chemistry than he did handling the rock. And when Gilchrist bolted after his junior season,
swingman D.J. Strawberry assumed those duties last year, mostly because Maryland had no other reliable option. Strawberry was forced to play the point even more when senior Chris McCray was ruled
academically ineligible after only 16 games.
"We've got to handle the ball better," Maryland coach Gary Williams said Sunday during the
ACC's Operation Basketball news conference at Grandover Resort.
As Williams tries to get his team back to the tournament this season, he has more than one option at point guard. Freshmen Eric Hayes and Greivis Vasquez have proved to be more than reliable in the first two weeks of preseason practice, so much so that Strawberry isn't worried about having to return there. Strawberry has moved back to the wing, where he is far more comfortable penetrating the basket and defending perimeter players.
"I think I'll be a lot more comfortable," Strawberry said. "Playing point guard last year really
helped my ballhandling a lot. It made me do things I've never done before. I think it's going to help
the team having another guard out there who can handle the ball."
But if Williams has his way, Hayes and Vasquez will do most of the ballhandling. Vasquez, a 6-foot-5 native of Venezuela, averaged 12.8 points, 7.4 rebounds and 5.9 assists as a senior at Montrose Christian School in Rockville, Md. Hayes played for his father, Kendall Hayes, at Potomac High in Dumfries, Va., averaging 21.3 points and making a whopping 71 percent of his 3-point attempts.
So far in practice, Vasquez has looked more comfortable playing the point and distributing the
basketball and Hayes has displayed a sweet shooting stroke the Terrapins desperately need on
the perimeter.
"I think they both can play out there [at point guard]," Williams said. "Vasquez is big enough -- he's almost 6-5 -- to where he could play [shooting guard] or [small forward]. Hayes is the son of a basketball coach, and you can really tell he loves the game. He's a very good shooter for a point guard. I don't mind having two point guards out there on the court."
Especially not after what the Terrapins endured last season. During Maryland's 19-13 season in
2005-06, in which it became the first ACC team to be left out of the NCAA Tournament field after going
8-8 in league play and winning a conference tournament game, it had more turnovers than assists.
Only Wake Forest had more turnovers than the Terrapins' 528 last season.
Strawberry, the son of former major league baseball player Darryl Strawberry, never seemed
comfortable playing point guard. He ranked 10th among ACC players in assist-to-turnover ratio and
shot only 42.9 percent from the floor. He started 31 of 32 games at point guard after missing all but 14
games in 2004-05 with a knee injury.
"D.J. had a very good season last year, and because we were 8-8 in the league, he didn't get
enough attention," Williams said. "He's played the [J.J.] Redicks of the world and the other All-
America-type players. I think he'll be better not having to handle the ball all the time. He's more
comfortable on the wing."
Williams hopes taking Strawberry off the point also will improve the Terrapins' defense. They
allowed 73.5 points per game last season, most among ACC teams, and opponents shot 36.7
percent on 3-point attempts, third-highest in the league.
"We've always scored enough points," Williams said. "We just didn't play good enough defense.
We've gotten hurt from the 3-point line the last couple of years, there's no doubt about it. I'll take
that responsibility. Our post defense has to be better. The less you have to help on the post, the more
you can defend the perimeter. We've had to spend too much time helping in the post.
"I've always felt if you had the right guys, you can teach them to play defense. I think we have to
get back to pressing more. We've had spurts. We're in really good shape right now."
Williams also is counting on improved play from forward Ekene Ibekwe, the team's top returning
scorer with 11.1 points per game, who tested the NBA draft waters last spring before returning to school. Ibekwe, a 6-foot-9 senior from Carson, Calif., played this summer on the Nigerian national team and has come back to school stronger. He posted double-doubles in three of the Terps' final 11 games last season and ranks seventh in school history with 142 blocked shots.
"People have told me I've got to be more consistent and more aggressive all the time," Ibekwe
said. "I've got to work on my jump shot."
Maryland lost leading scorer Nik Caner-Medley and power forward Travis Garrison, a former
McDonald's All-American who never reached his potential in college, but Ibekwe could get help in the
post from Bambale Osby, a transfer from Paris (Texas) Junior College. Osby, a 6-foot-8, 250-pound
junior, played his freshman season at New Mexico before averaging six points and five rebounds at
Paris Junior College last season.
"He wants to be a back-to-the-basket player," Williams said. "Those are hard to find. Everyone is
like, 'Coach, I need a jump shot to get to the league.'"
Williams also said senior Will Bowers, a 7-foot-1 senior, is in the best shape of his career.
Bowers attended the Pete Newell Big Man Camp this past summer to work on his post moves and
footwork. He didn't average more than 2.8 points or 2.6 rebounds in his first three college seasons.
"Will is being more aggressive and asking for the ball in the paint more," Ibekwe said. "He's got a
lot more post moves."
First and foremost, though, Williams knows he has to find consistent play at point guard. If not,
the Terps might be looking at a third straight postseason in the NIT rather than the NCAAs.
"Once you win the NCAA Tournament [which the Terrapins did in 2002], I think people expect you to get there," Williams said. "We went 11 straight years. I think people thought it was automatic."
