When death shatters the serenity of the exclusive moneyed enclave of Tuxedo Park, New York, Eliza Blake, cohost of the country''s premier morning television show KEY to America, is on the scene. While attending a lavish gala at her friends'' newly renovated estate, Pentimento, Eliza''s host is found dead—a grotesque suicide that is the first act in a macabre and intricately conceived plan to expose the sins of the past involving some of the town''s most revered citizens. Determined to find out the truth, Eliza and her KEY News colleagues—producer Annabelle Murphy, cameraman B.J. D''Elia, and psychiatrist Margo Gonzalez—discover that Pentimento holds the key. Nestled in the park''s sprawling architectural masterpieces, picturesque gardeners'' cottages, and lush, rolling landscape, the glorious mansion is actually a giant \"puzzle house,\" filled with ingenious clues hidden in its fireplaces, fountains, and frescoes that lead them from one suspicious locale to another—and, one by one, to the victims of a fiendish killer. As Pentimento gives up its secrets, it becomes clear that no amount of wealth or privilege will keep the residents of Tuxedo Park safe. But just when Eliza unearths one final surprise, she comes face-to-face with a murderer who believes that some puzzles should never be solved.

Though Rosie is the meanest cow in the herd, five-year-old Marvin is inconsolable when she is sold and he and his family move to another dairy farm.

Eliza Blake, host of the top-rated KEY News morning show, has witnessed tragedy and danger in her career. But nothing the accomplished professional has experienced has prepared her for when her seven-year-old daughter, Janie, is snatched from summer camp. The country''s viewers are glued to their television sets, anxiously awaiting the news that their favorite morning-television personality''s little girl has been found. With each passing day, the FBI and local authorities track down every lead: A profile of the kidnapper''s most likely characteristics is developed, every fan letter written to Eliza over the last six months is scrutinized, every sex offender registered within a fifty-mile radius is interviewed, and psychics from around the country appear on Eliza''s doorstep offering their help. But Eliza isn''t going to sit around and wait for answers. She and the rest of the Sunrise Suspense Society—brilliant producer Annabelle Murphy, cameraman extraordinaire B.J. D''Elia, and psychiatrist Dr. Margo Gonzalez—will band together to outwit a cunning criminal whose shocking motives threaten to snuff out a terrified little girl''s life.

Catching the attention of the entire country when her seven-year-old daughter is kidnapped, a news anchor becomes increasingly frustrated by authorities and enlists the help of her producer, cameraman, and psychiatrist to outwit the kidnappers.

Abstract: Transactive memory (TM) system development involves the encoding, storage and retrieval of information among team members. This study will specifically focus on the retrieval aspect, or the interdependent sharing of the team''s composite knowledge, and how the level of interdependent knowledge sharing impacts each member''s satisfaction with the team''s overall performance. It is argued that perceived interdependence and information retrieval are two important variables that may, ultimately, impact overall satisfaction with a team''s performance. Hypotheses are tested on data from intact, knowledge-based, work teams using an online questionnaire to obtain information from participants about: 1) their team''s knowledge interdependence, 2) level of information retrieval for specific areas of knowledge, and 3) level of performance satisfaction. Contrary to theoretical expectation, results indicate that members who retrieve information from more teammates are more satisfied with their teams'' performance.

Kentucky''s accountability system includes a school-processes audit known as Standards and Indicators for School Improvement (SISI), which is in a nascent stage of validation. Content validity methods include comparison to instruments measuring similar constructs as well as other techniques such as job analysis. This study used a two-phase process to validate SISI. In Phase One, the SISI were compared to the Interstate School Leaders'' Licensure Consortium Standards (ISLLC) in a content analysis. Phase Two used observational and self-report data from ten selected elementary and secondary principals to map their work on both sets of standards. The indicators in SISI proved more descriptive of the observed school improvement and instructional leadership activities of principals than did the indicators in ISLLC.
