Monday, September 19, 2016CHESHIRE >> Elise Samson got her start in the floral industry as a delivery driver.“I needed a job while I was in high school,” said Samson, 36.“So, I went to this floral shop in Litchfield and ask the owner at the time if they hiring,” she said.“The owner said they were looking for a delivery driver and they hired me.” Flowers of Distinction was her first job and the shop is still in business.AdvertisementNow, after years of hands-on experience, education and building self-confidence, Samson launched Elise Floral, a statewide full service wedding and event florist company.But unbeknownst to Samson, while working as a delivery driver, she thought the job would be easy.“I had to clean and process the flowers, there is a whole procedure that I didn’t know,” she said. “But in my mind during that time, I was thinking I can rock tunes in my car and deliver pretty flowers; it didn’t work that way.”Over the course of the next couple of months, according to Samson, she wasn’t allowed to arrange any of the flowe...
Monday, August 15, 2016The Night Of provides a suspect with motive to murder Andrea Cornish, one that could possibly create reasonable doubt for a jury regarding Nasir Khan’s guilt.At the end of episode six, “Samson and Delilah,” John Stone finds out some background information on Andrea’s mysterious stepfather — Don Taylor, whom we were introduced to in episode two — after investigating a question virtually every viewer had from the series’ very first episode. How could a 22-year-old single woman afford a multi-million dollar brownstone on New York’s Upper West Side? When interviewed by Detective Box, Taylor mentioned that Andrea’s mother owned the residence, so it was left to her daughter after she died.Stone didn’t know that, however, and began to dig when he became curious about that townhouse. That led him to the guy Taylor was seen arguing with at Andrea’s funeral in episode four, Ray Halle (Paulo Costanzo). It turns out Halle is a financial advisor, and he’s not willing to talk due to confidentiality. Stone says any information given would be off the record, but he can also file a subpoena to get what he needs. Halle then reveals that Andrea’s mother was his client and Andrea came to him after her death to sor...

Samson Community Hospital to make sure everything was ready, he said. When the patient came in, Swift said he didn't think the man was going to make it. Thirty to 45 minutes later, when he came out of the cath lab, “I could not tell it was the same guy. He had color to his face; he was talking.”Other advancements include the starting of intravenous fluids and medications in the field and performing advanced airways procedures, like insertion of endotracheal tubes, he said.Among the things that haven't changed is abuse of the emergency medical care system – folks going to the ER for nonemergencies, which and tie up all the beds and result in having to shuffle people around when the real emergencies come through, Swift said.“There's people that get into medicine and medical care that have a driving interest in providing assistance to their patients, and I don't think that has changed over the period of years,” Swift said. “You...
