Rules for properly taking blood pressure
A reader recounts a doctor diagnosing hypertension from a single reading and prescribes a costly drug. The piece outlines official steps for accurate measurement: proper cuff size, five minutes seated, no caffeine or smoking beforehand, arm at heart level, two readings over at least two minutes, and a follow up in one to two weeks unless dangerously high. It advocates second opinions when time constraints skew care.

Becketts Bridge A Sure to Win Play in Bridge
North leads clubs against six spades as West holds king of clubs. A heart finesse fails. South can force West to reveal the problem and win with a preparatory sequence. After ruffing clubs and drawing trumps, South cashes diamonds, outs cross to dummy, and leads clubs to dump hearts. West is crushed, and the slam can be made without relying on the heart finesse. Tomorrow: Too many enemies.
