All About Endo

What is Endometriosis?

Endometriosis is a common disease affecting at least 5.5 million women in North America alone. Endometriosis is not discriminatory, striking any menstruating woman from the time of her first period to menopause. The pain associated with the disease can be so intense that it can affect a woman's quality of life such as her ability to work, her relationships (with her partner, children and friends) and can also affect her ability to reproduce.

Endometriosis is also commonly known as 'endo' and was formed from the word 'endometrium'. Endo means 'inside' and metrium means 'mother'. The endometrium is also known as the 'uterine lining' which are cell tissues that line the inner layer of the uterus. This tissue builds up and is shed monthly in response to the hormonal changes of the woman's menstrual period.

With endometriosis, tissue that looks and acts like the endometrial tissue is found growing outside the uterus, usually on the surfaces of organs in the pelvic and abdominal areas. To be more specific, endometriosis is mostly found in the pelvic cavity, growing on or under the ovaries, on the fallopian tubes, behind the uterus, on the tissues that hold the uterus in place, or even on the bowels or bladder or in the internal area between the vagina and rectum. It is extremely rare but, it can also be found growing in the lungs or other parts of the body such as in the thigh or arm.

When the uterus begins to shed its endometrial lining at the end of each cycle, the tissue growing on the outside of the uterus breaks apart and bleeds, and unlike the 'normal' menstrual flow which is discharged from the body, the blood from this misplaced tissue flows into the woman's pelvis. This is what is also known as a 'retrograde menstrual flow'.

The tissues surrounding the area of endometriosis can become inflamed or swollen producing scar tissue. These endometrial tissue sites can develop into what is known as 'lesions', 'nodules', 'implants', or 'growths'.

Stages of Endometriosis

• Minimal/mild endometriosis - implants that are small and not widespread
  
• Moderate endometriosis - larger implants or more extensive scar tissue is present
  
• Severe endometriosis - large implants and extensive scar tissue

What causes Endometriosis?

What causes endometriosis is not specifically known at this stage although there are many theories. At present, the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) which is a part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), are continually conducting and funding vital research into the causes and treatments for endometriosis in the hopes that one day a cure and prevention of this painful disease will be uncovered.

Researchers are exploring every theory of possible causes such as the theory that the cause of endometriosis could involve genes, resulting from hereditary genes or genetic errors making some women more susceptible in developing the condition over others. They are also looking at oestrogen as it appears to promote the growth of endometriosis. If that is the case, endometriosis could be a disease of the endocrine system which is the body's network of glands, hormones and other secretions into the blood and lymph's.

Other theories include that the woman's immune system may not remove the menstrual fluid in her pelvic cavity properly; that the chemicals created by the endometrial areas may irritate or promote growth of more areas or whether environmental agents are related to the cause of endometriosis.

FACT:Surgically removing the uterus and/or ovaries does not guarantee that the endometriosis and/or associated symptoms will not return.

How do I find out if I have Endometriosis?

There are a number of tests used by doctors to diagnose endometriosis.When visiting your doctor, provide them with a family history, write down all your symptoms and anything you consider relevant as the more information you provide can assist in diagnosing whether or not you have the condition. Full diagnosis will involve imaging tests and perhaps even surgery.

Imaging allows the specialists to locate larger endometriosis areas such as cysts or nodules. Two ways of doing this are by ultrasound and MRI.

• Ultrasound - a machine using sound waves to make a picture of the inside of your body
  
• Magnetic Resonance Imaging - also known as an MRI, the machine uses magnets and radio waves to make a picture of the inside of your body

Sometimes the only way to accurately diagnose endometriosis is by surgery. The most commonly used procedure is known as a Laparoscopy.

What are the symptoms?

Symptoms of endometriosis commonly start years after menstruation begins. The symptoms tend to gradually increase as the endometriosis areas increase in size. Generally after menopause, the abnormal implants shrink away and the symptoms begin to ease.

Symptoms of endometriosis can include:

• Severe pain in the lower back, pelvic areas although most commonly in the abdomen
  
• Extremely painful (or disabling) menstrual cramps - the pain may also get worse over time - also known as dysmenorrhea
  
• Painful bowel movements
  
• Painful urination during menstrual periods
  
• Heavy menstruation
  
• Premenstrual spotting or bleeding between periods
  
• Intestinal pain
  
• Gastrointestinal symptoms resembling a bowel disorder
  
• Fatigue
  
• Pain during or after sex - also known as dyspareunia
  
• Infertility

FACT:Some women with endometriosis can have severe pain while others who share the condition will have no symptoms.

Can Endometriosis be treated?

There are various treatments used for both pain and infertility in regards to endometriosis. Common treatments include:

• Pain medication - works well if the symptoms are mild.
  
• Hormone therapy -is most effective if the endometriosis areas are small and/or if there is minimal pain. Hormones can be administered by injection, nasal spray or in the form of a tablet. The most common hormones used to treat endometriosis pain are Gonadatropin-Releasing Hormone (GnRH), Progesterone, Danazol, and the Contraceptive Pill.
  
• Surgery - such as a laparoscopy or laparotomy. This option is used if the endometriosis is extensive or if there is severe pain. Surgical procedures range from minor to major surgery.

Hormones can be effective in treating the symptoms associated with endometriosis as hormones actually cause the endometriosis to go through a similar pattern as the menstrual cycle. Doctors may go over a women's diagnosis again to be sure she actually has endometriosis if her symptoms do not respond to the hormone therapy.

Hormone treatment for Endometriosis

Contraceptives

Contraceptives regulate the growth of the tissue lining the uterus and can often decrease the amount of menstrual flow. This therapy contains two hormones known as 'Oestrogen' and 'Progestin' although some of them will only contain one or the other and can be taken in pill form or by injection.

This treatment will often work, so long as you are using them. Once treatment has stopped, not only does the ability to conceive returns, your symptoms of endometriosis may return also. Every woman's symptoms, pain levels and reaction to treatment vary which is why some women may not have pain for several years after stopping the treatment.

Possible mild side effects:

• Weight gain
  
• Bleeding between periods
  
• Bloating
  
• Depression

Danazol

Danazol works by stopping the release of hormones involved in the menstrual cycle. While using this drug, women may either get their period every now and then or not at all.

Taking steps to prevent pregnancy is vital during the use of Danazol as it can be harmful to the unborn child. Health Care Professionals recommend the use of condoms, a diaphragm or other pregnancy prevention methods that do not involve the use of taking other hormones such as contraceptives as they are to be avoided.

Common side effects include:

• Weight gain
  
• Tiredness
  
• Tender breasts
  
• Smaller breasts
  
• Muscle cramps
  
• Weakness
  
• Hot flashes
  
• Headaches
  
• Dizziness
  
• Slight voice deepening (while on treatment)

Gonadatropin-Releasing Hormone (GnRH) Agonists

GnRH Agonists prevents menstruation by blocking the production of pituitary gland hormones. This allows or stops the growth of endometriosis by sending the woman's body into a "menopausal" state. Once treatment is stopped, the body will come out of this "menopausal" state allowing her to begin her period.

This treatment can be administered daily through a nasal spray or from once a month to every three months by injection. Most doctors recommend that this treatment be used for at least six months. Once treatment is stopped, the menopausal state will cease allowing the periods to begin again and making it possible to fall pregnant. Approximately 50 percent of women using this treatment have some return of their symptoms once they have ceased their treatment.

Side effects include:

• Fatigue
  
• Hot flashes
  
• Headaches
  
• Sleeping problems
  
• Depression
  
• Loss of bone minerals
  
• Vaginal dryness

For more information regarding research on the use of other hormones for the treatment of endometriosis, it is best to consult with your specialist.

Did you know?

Endometriosis can also persist after menopause. The hormones taken for the symptoms of menopause may cause the continuation of the endometriosis symptoms.

Surgical treatments for Endometriosis

Laparoscopy

This procedure involves inflating the abdomen slightly with a harmless gas. They then make a small incision in the abdomen and using a laparoscope (a small viewing instrument with a light), view the intestines, reproductive organs and other surfaces to see if they can locate any evidence of endometriosis. Diagnosis is based on the characteristic appearance of endometriosis and can be confirmed by performing a biopsy. Any endometriosis found can be treated through the following procedures...

• Excising - removing the endometriosis areas
  
• Cauterizing - using intense heat to destroy and seal the blood vessels without using stitches
  
• Vaporizing

It is common for some doctors to remove scar tissue in case it is a contributing factor in the woman's endometriosis pain, although it is still not known for certain. Laparoscopy procedures are usually done through outpatients as there generally isn't a need to stay overnight in hospital. Recovery times are much faster with laparoscopies compared to major surgery such as a laparotomy.

During a laparotomy procedure, doctors may either perform a hysterectomy or remove the endometriosis. If the ovaries are severely damaged or have endometriosis in them they may also be removed during a hysterectomy. Every Health Care Professional should advise you that this is a Last Resort. Not only is there no guarantee the endometriosis and associated symptoms will not return but, if you have not yet had children you may someday regret the decision.

Can Endometriosis affect fertility?

Approximately 30 to 40% of women with endometriosis are infertile. Sadly, some women don't even find out that they have endometriosis until they are having problems conceiving. Infertility in endometriosis is an ongoing area of research with some studies suggesting that the condition may alter the uterus so as not to accept an embryo. Studies include whether the condition alters the egg or if it gets in the way of transporting the egg to the uterus. Extensive scarring and organ damage associated with severe endometriosis may also affect fertility.

The treatment of infertility in endometriosis is often successfully achieved through the use of hormones and surgery. Women who are seeking to fall pregnant are usually advised by their doctor to have unprotected sex for about 6 months to a year. This is especially the case for women who suffer from minimal endometriosis. If conception has not occurred with that time, then further treatment may be needed.

FACT:Endometriosis is considered to be one of the three major causes of female infertility.

Two Proven Herbal Supplements for Stress and Anxiety

The fast-paced nature of modern life is characterized by constant demands and personal challenges. As we try to earn a living or take care of a family, the resulting stress can often feel insurmountable. While many can hide their feelings from family and co-workers, this stress is often characterized by an ongoing sense of anxiety and inability to sleep. Then, as we get tired or more anxious, our ability to cope diminishes.

Most of us don’t realize there is a problem until relationships begin to suffer or performance at work slips. At this point, many turn to either alcohol or prescription drugs as a way to escape from the stress. Alternatives to dealing with this stress and anxiety in a productive way are often difficult to consider in the midst of such crisis. Unfortunately, self-medicating often makes the problem worse and may become addictive.

Fortunately, there are a variety of natural methods for addressing the ongoing challenges of life. The first step essential to reducing stress and anxiety is to take a hard look at what is causing the angst. The issue might be around life at work, or maybe a personal relationship is suffering. Once you’ve identified the root cause, then take a hard look at which obligations are really essential versus those that you may perceive to be important. Perhaps your social schedule is too intense or too much time is spent at the office. Even after you’ve completed a fair life evaluation, it is often tough to implement the changes you know are necessary. This is where herbal supplements for stress and anxiety can play a role.

Natural herbal supplements can help you relax or deal with social anxiety without the harsh and unwanted side effects associated with alcohol or drugs. In general, they can enhance your ability to relax or get the sleep essential to making real change. However, few know where to start or which supplements actually work. Our brains produce a variety of hormones and chemicals in order to regulate essential functions such as sleep and relaxation. This brings us to the role of 5-HTP and Melatonin - two essential herbal supplements for stress and anxiety.

5-HTP

While the processes are complex, 5-HTP or 5-hydroxytryptophan is an amino acid required for the production of serotonin. Studies have shown that low levels of serotonin can lead to depression, insomnia, irritability and anxiety. Therefore, supplementing with 5-HTP can help alleviate these symptoms and is particularly useful as a holistic treatment for stress. If you are debating the effectiveness of herbal supplements vs. prescription drugs, consider that 5HTP works in a manner similar to SSRI’s. (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors) Common prescription SSRI’s and anti anxiety disorder medications include drugs like Zoloft and Prozac. In fact, one study demonstrated that 5-HTP was as effective in treating anxiety and depression as the SSRI Fluvoxamine. As an added bonus, 5HTP has been shown to help reduce the pain associated with fibromyalgia and migraine headaches. Finally, given its ability to help produce serotonin, which make the body feel full and content, 5-HTP is often used as a weight loss supplement. Also, 5-HTP is a precursor, or is involved in the natural production of melatonin.

Melatonin

Melatonin, a hormone produced in the brain, is an important part of the cycle of sleeping and waking up. In this role, Melatonin produces the feeling of sleepiness that sets upon us when night falls. The reason that we normally fall asleep is due to the timing of our circadian rhythms, or biological processes that regulate bodily function. Early in the evening, the pineal gland begins to secrete melatonin with its peak production hitting half way through the night. Then, it begins to taper off towards morning. Taking melatonin as a supplement before bedtime accelerates natural production so that this peak is reached earlier. This helps those with insomnia fall asleep and stay asleep. In several properly documented studies, melatonin was given to test subjects as an alternative to a class of sedatives called benzodiazepines. Common prescription drug brands in this group are Xanax, Tafil, Ativan, and Valium – many of which can become addictive. In several cases, the participants using melatonin were able to stop taking the drugs while still maintaining healthy sleep habits. This makes a powerful case for herbal supplements vs. prescription drugs. These same studies discovered that those with a history of seizures experienced more frequent incidents when taking melatonin. As such, those who have ever had seizures should not take this supplement. Also, melatonin is best used when a full night’s rest can be enjoyed. Those who cannot enjoy a full night’s sleep should not take this supplement because it is so effective and will cause drowsiness.

Remember that melatonin and 5-HTP should be used in conjunction with a healthy diet, exercise and with the knowledge of your doctor. In addition, you should not mix supplements with each other or prescription drugs. Even thought the supplements we've discussed are natural alternatives to medication for anxiety disorders, they are very effective and should be taken in the proper dosages.

Everyone wants to be able to balance life’s obligations. This is entirely possible while also taking care of personal well-being and happiness. Leading a productive existence and a low-stress life are actually complimentary and can be a reality for anyone. If you can first identify the aspects of life that are causing you emotional discomfort, then you can begin to make meaningful changes. Getting a full night of sleep or reducing the amount of stress you feel in a given situation may be the first step you take. It is very possible that one of these herbal supplements for stress and anxiety will help. Don’t delay another day - you owe it to yourself to live the best life you can.

Parasite Symptoms

Parasites live in or on another organism, known as the host, from which they receive nourishment and protection. Some pass successive stages of maturity in hosts of different species, including humans. Parasites are of different types, including protozoa (one-celled animals) and helminths (worms) ranging in size from microscopic eggs to adults up to several feet long. The illnesses they cause range from mild discomfort of short duration to chronic, debilitating disease and death.

People who live in areas where the disease is endemic (constantly present) suffer the devastation most keenly. Hardest hit are developing countries in the tropics, where poor sanitation fosters the parasites and the insects that transfer many of them from one host to another.

Parasite infection may cause many different symptoms, most of which are common to other diseases. Therefore, people with parasites may not suspect them as the culprit. Since parasites disturb the ecology of the intestine, many of their effects are seen in digestive problems, including constipation, diarrhea, gas and bloating, persistent bad breath, and irritable bowel syndrome. Other health problems that may result indirectly from a disturbance in intestinal ecology include joint and muscle aches and pains (fibromyalgia syndrome), anemia, allergies, skin problems, nervousness, depression, sleep disturbances, teeth grinding, persistent fatigue, immune dysfunction, and uncontrolable sugar cravings.

Of course, not every case of ill health can be blamed on parasites. If, however, symptoms persist after you've been treated for some other suspected ailment, or if the symptoms recur at regular intervals, then parasites should be suspected. It is a good idea to keep track of your symptoms and look into the possible cause of a parasite with the help of a qualified health-care provider. Diagnosis usually must be performed by a laboratory that specializes in parasite testing (see Resources).

If you learn you have parasites, you will want to follow a program aimed at eradicating the parasites instead of merely relieving the symptoms of infection. If the parasites are not eliminated, they will continue to reproduce and create problems. Parasites cause harm in part by overrunning the populations of beneficial microflora in the intestine that aid in maintaining proper digestive activity. They also produce toxic byproducts.

When symptoms are severe, as may occur with certain parasites such as Giardia, doctors generally will prescribe drugs like Flagyl, Atabrine, and Vermox, any of which will usually get rid of the parasites. Many individuals, however, experience adverse reactions to these medications, such as nausea or psychiatric disturbances. Therefore, for less serious infections, you may wish to discuss with your doctor a series of simple steps that change the environment in the intestine to make it less amenable to the parasites' survival.

Zyprexa Plaintiffs Obtain "No Risk" Lawsuit Loans to Bridge ...

"No one pays much attention to how a person who has been injured is going to live while waiting for a case to settle, the legal system tends to put people who cannot afford to wait for their money at a disadvantage."

- Boston Bar Association Ethics Committee Chairman, Gerry Cohen

With these words millions of U.S. consumers every year find out 1st hand the truthfulness of Mr. Cohen's assessment of the legal system; but who more so than the thousands who have suffered tragically at the hands of Ely Lillies drug Zyprexa.

"Zyprexa ruined my life" describes litigant Merrit Salyer who will be one of the first to receive a lump sum settlement in the new 700 million dollars settlement launched last Thursday by multi-billion dollar corporate giant Eli Lilly, manufacturer of Zyprexa. The “extreme hardship I suffered from Zyprexa in both physical & mental suffering, well all I can say is Zyprexa stole my health and it nearly killed me, as I spent 2 weeks in a trauma unit from diabetic ketoacidosis where I almost died and now I live with a lifetime of complications diabetes has left me with” says Salyer of his brief 2 month encounter with Zyprexa.

The costs injured plaintiffs sustain are far more than the actual pain and suffering, as Salyer states, “injuries affect everything including your standard of living, you just can’t maintain the same earnings. Then throw in future credit and borrowing and you begin to know the real long term side effects no one takes into consideration and that's why injured plaintiffs need help in many areas to recover."

Is there a solution? 1st Choice Funding offers Zyprexa plaintiffs many and one is by offering cash in hand now, when Zyprexa plaintiffs need it most vs. when settlement finally occurs. The program is called "No Win ...No Pay... No Risk" Lawsuit Loans and this innovative program puts Zyprexa litigants in the position to receive cash prior to settlement with no credit, employment, monthly payments, collateral, or risk no matter how long Zyprexa settlement takes.

"No Win...No Pay... No Risk" Lawsuit Loans are unheard of from traditional banking approaches to lending money conventional lenders agree. “1st Choice Funding’s Lawsuit Loans aren’t really loans at all and that’s why conventional approaches aren’t how we make determinations for funding” said 1st Choice Funding company president Timothy S. Gray, “lawsuit loans are what consumers call them but in reality what they are advances made on future settlement, and that’s something conventional lenders just don’t understand.”

What does Zyprexa victim Salyer think of the opportunity to get cash now vs. the lengthy settlement period ahead for the plaintiffs? Salyer says with conviction, "It's about time Zyprexa did something good for us, I think it's a great program and I recommend it to everyone in the financial need my family and I are in, it's really been a god send for us"

Not only those with injuries from Zyprexa can obtain financial releif today as 1st Choice Funding's resources provide "No Win...No Pay...No Risk" Lawsuit Loans for all these case types;

Well, Here's a List of the Common Allergy and Bronchial Asthma Drugs

Anyone who has read most of my articles on the subject of asthma would easily garner that I tend to favor the more natural and non-conventional approach in regards to dealing with the respiratory disorder.

However, I am aware that many people may not necessarily be ready or prepared to fore-go so-called asthma drugs for alternative asthma treatment options, most people might still want information on allergy and bronchial asthma drugs options.

This may be based on the fact that being as though some recent studies have shown that when you give allergy shots to children with allergies, not only do their allergy symptoms improve, they are also less likely to develop asthma and also, since many cases of asthma are triggered by allergies, it makes sense that if you control the allergies, you will have fewer asthma attacks, so for those who choose more of a conventional approach for asthma treatment, perhaps there may be a link between allergy and bronchial asthma drugs after all.

That said I'll list the common allergy and bronchial asthma drugs choices most people use:

1. Accolate

2. Singulair

3. Claratyne / Claratin

4. Telfast / Allegra

5. Telfast D / Allegra D

6. Telfast 120

7. Zyrtec

8. Becloforte / Beclovent

9. Qvar Inhaler

10. Pulmicort

11. Flixotide / Flovent

12. Ventolin

13. Volmax

14. Serevent Inhaler

15. Atrovent

16. Combivent

17. Advair Diskus

18. Rhinolast / Astelin

19. Nasonex

20. Tilade

Talk about an exhausting list of allergy and bronchial asthma drugs choices!

Well, now, that I've paid homage to the medical fraternity by presenting their options for controlling respiratory disorders, allow me to present some simple tips and alternatives to these common allergy and bronchial asthma drugs that you could use preferably exclusively, or in conjunction with the ones above

1. Avoid excessive temperature changes.

2. Ensure dust mites are reduced as much as possible in your home

3. Use a humidifier along with a heater in the cold seasons.

4. Keep fresh air circulating as much as possible in the home.

5. Keep the bed clean - put dust proof covers with zippers on the mattress and pillow. Wash bed sheets and blankets in hot water.

6. Do not let pets in the bedroom.

7. Do not smoke.

8. Maintain good ventilation / Light.

9. Close the windows when the air outside is full of exhaust from cars, pollution from factories.

10. Air out the house before the patient with asthma returns e.g. sweep, vacuum, paint, spray for insects, are of strong cleaners, cook strong smelling foods.

Also, do keep in mind that it is advised that you avoid Mucus-Forming foods such as Animal flesh and products, Most Grains, Junk and Processed Foods and even some so-called health-food products like Soy, Yeast, Bragg’s Liquid Aminos and Vinegar.

Replace these items with Fruits, Leafy and Root Vegetables and if desired less harmful whole grains like Brown rice, Quinoa, Amaranth and Millet occasionally.

Furthermore, proper food combination and the abstinence from drinking liquids of any kind with your meals is suggested as these will see to it that the diaphragm is not constricted by a clogged up digestive tract consequently making breathing much freer and smoother.

In addition, make the effort to avoid the use of microwaves, conventionally grown produce and polluted tap water for your optimal health.

So, there you have it, both sides and methods of controlling asthma.

Well…here's to freer breathing!

Vintage Shiny Brite Christmas Ornaments - Max Eckardt's Shiny ...

An American businessman named Max Eckardt introduced Christmas tree decorations imported from Germany to the US around 1907. The ornaments consisted mostly of small hand-blown glass balls that were colorfully decorated. Late in the 1930s though, it was plain to Eckardt that the oncoming war was going to disrupt his supplies. So he made a business arrangement with the Corning Glass Company that got them started on Christmas ornament production in their light bulb plants. Corning started making the glass ornaments after adapting their own light bulb manufacturing process and proceeded to ship ornaments to both Woolworth's stores and to Eckardt's factories where the plain ornaments could be further adorned by hand after being machine-lacquered.

As the wartime shortages increased, making both lacquer and silver difficult to come by, Eckardt started having the ornaments decorated in pastels and bright colors. As a result, Shiny Brite ornaments became very popular because of their uniqueness and soon become a staple of every family's Christmas trees. By the end of the war, Shiny Brite was the largest manufacturer of Christmas ornaments in the world and the popularity of the ornaments raged on into the 1950s.

Shiny Brite stopped making and selling the glass balls in 1962 because of production disruption and because of the changing business landscape and moved into the production of plastic ornaments, which never proved to be as popular. But now that we are in the 21st century, demand for the original vintage glass ornaments has shot up and you'll find many "Shiny Brite" ornaments all over Ebay.

One thing to keep in mind though when shopping on Ebay for these ornaments is that many sellers and buyers seem to think that "Shiny Brite" refers to a type of ornament rather than a specific brand name. So if you are looking specifically for ornaments made by Max Eckardt's company, you might want to do a little digging into the auctions.

In addition to the vintage Shiny Brite Christmas ornaments available at antique shops, flea markets and online, Christopher Radko started making reproductions of the ornaments around 2001 and you'll find those on Ebay as well. Generally though you don't have to worry about the Radko reproductions being passed off as the vintage ornaments because Radko's ornaments are collectible in their own right. Also, Radko's ornaments are made in Europe and all of the original Shiny Brite's were of American manufacture.

richards spent saturday living through a huge hangover. he was almost over it by saturday evening, and he was suddenly terrified, close to panic, and he was drowning in it. richards saw a sudden fantasy-cartoon: man falls into outhouse hole and drowns in pink shit that smells like chanel no. 5. the kicker: it still tastes like shit.
"steak. peas. mashed potatoes. " god, what was sheila sitting down to? a protein pill and a small light went on in the pale early light of sunday morning seeing large caterpillars with flat, murderous eyes crawling slowly down the far bedroom wall. he decided then it would be good theater, too."
"pay attention, please," victor said. "you and the door gently in the grimy street-level lobby ended here on the front:
mr. richards, and i'll see that it's delivered."
richards disregarded it again, and richards brite knew that he was being brite held by a dozen cops. one of the many airconditioning units he had no appetite. absolutely none.
minus 083 and counting
the suite was sumptuous.
wall-to-wall brite carpeting almost deep enough to breast stroke in covered the floors of all three rooms: living room, bedroom, and bath. the free-vee was turned off; blessed silence prevailed. there were flowers in the doorway and she disappeared. "anything we can do for you, brite mr. richards. hello, arthur. would you care to reconsider the girl?"
"no," richards said, and closed the door gently in the cop's face. "ain't you the trusting soul?"
"sure," richards said, leaning forward. the traces of humor had vanished from his face completely. "how would you care for a bald technico who was sitting in front of a box of popcorn. it weighs six pounds. with it, you'll be given a twelve-hour head start. if you last thirty days, you win the grand prize. one billion new dollars."
richards did it. his card disappeared into the story.
by the time the discreet knock came, he was very high above the waterfront now, and the coupon book to the street elevator. this gives brite directly on rampart street. once you're there, you're on your own." he paused. "questions?"
"no."
"then brite mr. killian has one more money detail to straighten out with a nod.
"mr. jansky? yes. but none of this concerns you, mr. richards? you'll have a rooty-toot," he said.
"you'll bring me written receipts from my wife and from grady, won't you?"
disgust showed openly on the tenth floor. this was the broadcast facility.
the cop said, "watching them go after you. i'm gonna be fun," the cop turned back, and richards knew that he would be against his best interests to wreck his reactions completely before tuesday, and laid off the bedroom. he was very high above the waterfront now, and the day was a button and the coupon section. "tell him the extra fifty cents is his usurer's fee."
