For Cricket Sings, Cahokia medicine woman, the omens have been bad. She is old, and so at this year''s Sun Ceremony she will tell her stories, the tales handed down from grandparents to grandchildren since the memory of the People began. The Sun King is dying, unable to perfom the Ceremony which will bring good crops to the fields. Called to help because she is a healer, she is faced with the dilemma of whether to stimulate the comatose ruler long enough to perform the Ceremony or to poison him so that his son can perform it. Her decision to feign the King''s death by switching his body with that of another old man who has recently died puts her entire family in danger.

The resolution, set against the chaotic mourning for the Sun King, is compelling, believably constructed out of what little factual information is known about the prehistoric dwellers of Cahokia.

Have you ever thought about what a bridge can be? It can be a transition to another state of being in either a literal or figurative sense. It can help one cross over a difficult obstacle, or it can be the obstacle. Kathleen King''s bridge was a metaphorical one. She saw normalcy as the bridge to happiness. She tried crossing that bridge in a variety of ways: career, marriage, and motherhood, especially adoptive parenthood. This book is her story of trying to cross the bridge built from a difficult childhood and mental illness into a normal life. As you read, some attempts may seem flawed now, but they were the only ways she knew of to be as "normal" (whatever that is) as other people she observed. She used a variety of ways to get to the other side. One was her insistence on setting extreme goals for herself. The more difficult the challenge, the more the sense of accomplishment. When she was a young woman, people with conditions similar to hers did not talk openly about their symptoms of unrelenting cycles of depression and mania, and it seemed not even professionals understood the highs and lows. Her unrelenting super goals gave her brief satisfaction. And then the crashes would come, accompanied more than once by suicidal urges. So, she would think, time to crank up the goals. Adopting a child? Eventually a baby was not enough. She had to adopt special needs children. She depended on those extreme goals as her coping mechanisms. You may see yourself in Kathleen''s stories, or you may see someone close to you.

The Medicare prescription drug program, known as Medicare Part D, provides a voluntary outpatient prescription drug benefit for Medicare beneficiaries. Beneficiaries may choose Part D plans from among multiple plans offered by private companies (plan sponsors) that contract with the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). Plans may differ in their premiums and cost-sharing arrangements, the drugs they cover, and the pharmacies they contract with to fill prescriptions. CMS developed the Medicare Plan Finder interactive website in 2005 as a tool to help beneficiaries compare Part D plans and identify plans that meet their needs. For Plan Finder to serve its intended purpose, beneficiaries and their advisers need to be able to obtain accurate drug cost information, understand plan options, and navigate the website effectively. This report examines (1) how CMS oversees the accuracy of drug pricing information in Plan Finder; and (2) how CMS assesses the usability of Plan Finder and any steps CMS has taken to improve it.
