On a horse farm in the steeplechase country of Maryland''s My Lady''s Manor, ER physician Alex Randolph and his girlfriend, Penny Murray, are recovering from injuries sustained in a hospital hostage incident that transforms them into instant but unwilling national celebrities. A thousand miles distant-in a parallel universe-an abused and impoverished young girl from the Everglades evolves into a stunningly beautiful sociopath of enormous wealth. As a golden summer transitions to fall, dark obsession stalks the unknowing young couple, and fate inexorably leads three lives to collision, sweeping the idyllic landscape of My Lady''s Manor with terror and death.

Between March and May 2013, photographer Bruce Foster and poet Gregory O''Brein were temporary citizens of Santiago de Chile, staying in an apartment a short walk from the Museo de Arte Contemporaneo, where their works were included in the ''Kermadec - Art Across the Pacific'' exhibition. Camera in hand, Foster walked the streets of this ambiguous yet curiously animated city, with its buskers, military parades, stray dogs and cascades of water from the cannons of armoured vehicles; O''Brien wrote poems, seated at Cafe Sur or the Mosqueto (with its Fernando Pessoa placemats), or on a bench in the Parque Forestal. Together they observed the life of street, park, and busy intersection; they were drawn into the generous, abundant lives of their fellow citizens.

Although concrete admixtures are chemicals in a literal sense, by convention in concrete technology, the term "chemical admixture" is restricted to water-soluble substances other than air-entraining agents. Most chemical admixtures react chemically with the cement in concrete. This discussion will be confined to set-controlling and water-reducing admixtures. Chemical admixtures of other types are classified and described in a recent report of the American Concrete Inst. [1]. A water-reducing admixture is defined as one that reduces the quantity of mixing water required to produce concrete of a given consistency; a retarding admixture as one that retards the setting of concrete; an accelerating admixture as one that accelerates the setting and early strength development of concrete; a water-reducing and retarding admixture as one that reduces the quantity of mixing water required to produce concrete of a given consistency and retards the setting of concrete; and a water-reducing and accelerating admixture as one that reduces the quantity of mixing water required to produce concrete of a given consistency and accelerates the setting and early strength development of concrete. These five types of admixtures are referred to in ASTM Specifications for Chemical Admixtures for Concrete (C 494 - 63 T) as Types A, B, C, D, and E, respectively.
