...June 20, 2001, when the police reached his modest brick home on Beachcomber Lane in suburban Houston, they found Andrea drenched with bathwater, her flowery blouse and brown leather sandals soaking wet. She had turned on the bathroom faucet to fill the porcelain tub and moved aside the shaggy mat to give herself traction for kneeling on the floor. It took a bit of work for her to chase down the last of the children; toward the end, she had a scuffle in the family room, sliding around on wet tile below a poster that proclaimed the epithets of Christ...
Noah, her firstborn, was the last to die. The 7-year-old left his half-eaten cereal on the kitchen table when Andrea summoned him. Walking into the bathroom, Noah saw his sister facedown in the water, her tiny fists clenched.

Excellent lighting, free wireless Internet access and bathroom amenities from sought-after Czech brand Botanicus are other pluses. Dining is limited to snacks and light meals, but the nearby central business district offers plenty more options. You can expect to pass socialites and models on your way in and out: Ambience is a hit with local fashionistas...
...They just don’t do this.” In an east coast city this is not acceptable. Is there not a large gym or facility that could have been used to accommodate those wishing to view the ceremony but remain dry? Next, the bathroom facilities were atrocious. The elderly and women suffered significantly. People had to climb many stairs to wait on long lines for minimum facilities. I am very, very disappointed about this lack of forethought. It seems that much thought is spent on following the traditional ceremony, but very little on practical planning. LISA ROSENBLUM...
