Perhaps the funniest catch phrase I made up with my buddies while watching the NBA through college -"Wahhhhhh I'm Jarrett Jack!" – can be used in so many instances. It's like Brian Dennehy's speech about how versatile the F-Bomb is when he played Bobby Knight in an ESPN movie. Whomever greenlit that idea, airing a movie with constant F-Bombs on ESPN2, is probably fired. He's like, "Don't fire me! Wahhhhhhhhh! Wahhhhhhhhhhh, I'm Jarrett Jack!" I use this phrase because every time I seem to watch him, he looks so so sad. And just look at the cover screen grab for the Yahoo recap from the game last night! So after Kyrie Irving flexed his guns too hard, Jack had three starts of very uninspiring ball. Mike Brown sat him down and said he needed more from him. The veteran responded, "Wahhhhhhhhh I'm Jarrett Jack!" Then last night rolled around with the Knicks rolling out Raymond Felton to play defense. Seriously, it's like Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory with the blueberry chick. The only difference is Felton actually ate the meals and didn't chew the LSD-laced gum! After a minute or two, Felton was winded, and went "Wahhhhhhhh, I have to guard Jarrett Jack!" Jack lit up the terrible Knicks D for 31/5/10 with a trey and a side of whoopass. Finally kicking it into gear as the starter, Jack has a four-gamer cooking up for week two of the playoffs, with my eye eagerly on Wednesday at the awful Pistons. It doesn't really matter who he's playing, pretty much a must own. Of course, in all my leagues where I'm still alive, he was already snatched up. "Wahhhhhhhhh, I'm Jarrett Jack!" Here's what else I caught over the weekend in NBA action:Please, blog, may I have some more?
Ricky Rubio
Yet another start for the Gorgui Apparatus, with Gorgui Dieng going all out with a Goromotaro! I have to say, definitely the most unexpected Goromotaro since the term was coined. 22/21/4/1/0 and double-doubles in his last three games. Except this was a double double-double. There's so many Ds in that sentence you'd think I was daydreaming about Tyra Banks! And while Gorgui is out proving that he's America's Next Top C, what are doing right now in crunch time of fantasy? He's a tough guy to leave on the wire, but the Wolves only have Sunday left this week, and Nikola Pekovic is traveling with the team. Pek is questionable, but Dieng has given the team every excuse to keep the youngun out there with pretty much no realistic expectations to make the playoffs. So unless you've got a bye with a real scrub and you can stash Gorgui and hope for another big upside game, or your line-up is virtually full Friday and Saturday, you're probably letting him ride in 10 or 12ers H2H. Roto he's worth a spin and if you're crushing it in week 1 of the playoffs, maybe worth a stache as well. Oh no, Grey has me daydreaming about baseball! Mmmmm, Tyra Banks and baseball. Get out of my head Grey! What will be really interesting next year is what the Wolves do up front with Kevin Love having an uncertain future and Pek a FA. Dieng would probably be a really flashy flyer if he projects to start. Here's what else I saw last night in NBA action:Please, blog, may I have some more?
Wow. Last night was rocky. For a lot of people. Hopefully your playoff teams came out of the better end! Lots of guys with minor injuries were forced to sit, and within only minutes of each other Nikola Vucevic and Josh Smith got ejected in different games. Pretty much like the wild west out there! Next thing you know, I'm quoting Will Smith from that god forsaken movie… "Let me kindly stand up!" Probably the biggest benefactor in what will be dubbed "DNP-Day" was Aaron Brooks, who started for Ty Lawson who had "illness". Wow, that sounds ominous. Brooks went all 2009 on us, and posted a redonk 27/6/17 line. Dude, if you played in a daily league or if you were streaming Brooks for the dimes, you just got a major sign from the fantasy gods. "You, my son, are blessed with stats that overfloweth!" Distribute some to us less fortunate ones! The Nugs play again on Friday, and it's tough to say what Lawson's status will be by then. Ricky Rubio went bonkers on the Mavs last night (more below), so if Brooks does get the start – cue the Pavlovian salivating. Here's what else I saw last night in fantasy hoops action (and if you get here early enough, be sure to sign up for the Razzball NCAA Bracket pool with a fun prize to the winner!):Please, blog, may I have some more?
Wait, what?! Kobe Bryant is back?! I mean, the Lakers beat the Thunder, and someone dropped 42 for purple and gold… I can think of no other scenario. But as the verse goes, "Blessed are the Meeks!" Dropping 42 on OKC, Jodie Meeks hit a career-high with his typical Meeks game of treys and steals. "He was hittin' em from downtown like a mad scientist!" I dunno, I was trying to come up with a good segway into Cosmos from last night, but got nothing. "Went all deGrasse Tyson on the Thundah!" "Gettin' all cosmic on dem mfers!" The Lakers beating OKC definitely broke Vegas' space time continuum. Plus winning with 36 boards to 59? Crazy town. We've liked Meeks a lot over here in Razzball Nation, and somehow he's still at only 58% owned in Yahoo. I demand an Inquisition on this matter! Even though he's close to a ThrAGNOF, the 1.3 Stls a game, fairly high-volume 84% FT shooting, and just overall upside on such a crappy team make him an obvious must own. Here's what else I saw over the weekend in fantasy action:Please, blog, may I have some more?
Oh man, rough night for matt's Pacers! Al Jefferson just went absolutely bonkers, adding to his stretch of bonkertude giving Jefferson owners a huge boost for the playoffs. Owning Roy Hibbert like an Entertainment 720 entrepreneur, Big Al shot 16-25 in a full multi-cat dance party of 34/8/3/1/1 and even hit a three! Only his sixth of his career to pepper all the cats. Over his last 3, Jefferson has hit 44 of 65 shots for a very high volume 67.7 FG%. Jefferson hasn't played this well since his Minnesota days, and you can even argue this has been a career year. Which for a guy with the history Jefferson has put down in the stat sheets is really saying something considering how rocky it all started. Remember the ankle issue that had him sit a lot of games? Then the slow start? Because I sure do, and I steadfastly said "Hold me tighter baby!" Is that a song? I feel like there's something close to that… Anyway, hopefully you were able to buy low or weather the storm and now you're reaping some big man stats like it's the 90s. We miss you David Robinson! Two losses in a row for the Pacers, right after barely beating the Jazz. The Heat are now only 1.5 games behind, and might be taking the Pacers piece of the home-court advantage pie! Here's what else I saw last night in fantasy hoops:Please, blog, may I have some more?
No, you're not accidentally on baseball and we're not reviewing Roger Maris and Mickey Mantle's little HBO romp. Wait, why does LeBron James get an asterisk then?! I think the mask is helping him. It's like the Jim Carrey movie. Without it he's a nothing out there – – dammit, metaphors and parallels just aren't working today! Unless the improbable scenario in which you pounded em hard at happy hour, passed out before tipoffs last night, stumbled to your computer when you awoke this morning, and Razzball Basketball is your first NBA news choice, then you probably saw what BronBron did last night. I for one fully endorse the aforementioned scenario, see you at happy hour after work! LeBron went bob-bonkers on the bob-Bobcats for 61 points shooting 22-33, 8-10 from deep, and 9-12 from the stripe. Chipped in 7 boards and 5 dimes on top of it. The gap Kevin Durant had over King James is slowly deteriorating as MaskBron is taking over Gotham City. Now, it did help that there was no Dwyane Wade (not that it would've made that much of a difference), but KD is still your numero uno. Twin towers! I bet 50% of fantasy H2H title matchups will pit LeBron vs. KD. Fantasy basketball is too top heavy followed by a bunch of bastard children. It's turning into Shawn Kemp! Zing! Here's what else I saw last night in NBA action:Please, blog, may I have some more?
The trade deadline is here! Today! And even though we had a few trades already go down, more are sure to proliferate through the league office. Hopefully the NBA has faster fax machines than the NFL. I mean, seriously on that Elvis Dumervil thing?! BREAKING NEWS! The Heat trade LeBron James to Cleveland for Anthony Bennett, but the trade was sent just over a month too late. Reports indicate it was sent on April 1st. Hah! Sent from some hooligan named David Stern… You've been punked Adam Silver! Back to reality, we've seen Marcus Thornton get traded to the grandpa Nets for Jason Terry and Reggie Evans and Steve Blake get all his fantasy value decapitated Hershel-Walking Dead style by getting shipped to the Warriors for Kent Bazemore and MarShon Brooks. The takeaways thus far is you can cut Blake in virtually all leagues, and in deeper leagues I actually think Reggie Evans could start at some point as the Kings 4. Jason Thompson is one of the many rumored on the trading block which would open up that role. I'm not saying Evans would play 30 minutes or anything, but could maybe average 8 boards a game while doing nothing else in the typical Evans fashion. So when I say deeper leagues, I mean deeeeeeper. We'll recap the rest of the trades in tomorrow morning's piece as well as in the comments throughout the afternoon to help with your fantasy moves. Here's what else went down in NBA action:Please, blog, may I have some more?
When Glen Davis went to the pre-season Magic weigh-in, the trainer was like, "355 Big Baby, really?" "These hips don't lie!" And in a very full slate of games last night, we had two pretty premiere big men have their hips not lie and go out on them. "Help I've fallen and can't get up!" The NBA to start issuing players life alerts to wear around their necks. DeMarcus Cousins was the first to succumb to the AARP ailment. Suffered a left hip flexor, but coach Mike Malone said it probably wasn't serious. Destiny is like, "wait a 'left' hip? I thought, like, for people we had only one hip!" No child left behind fails us yet again. Good thing it's the All-Star break for Boogie! An All-Star Boogie! Dude, that should totally be an event. Breakdance Horse! Hah. Then Derrick Favors went out and re-aggravated his right hip that had caused him to miss games here and there over the past month. This one is a lot less bueno. But hey, DeMarcus and Derrick have a pair of healthy hips! If only they were siamese twins – they'd get, like, 35 rebounds a game. Favors will likely get an MRI and be brought along very slowly since this is a re-aggravation. Enes Kanter to the rescue! Might get some solid run and deserves love in a lot of leagues. And don't sleep on Rudy Gobert in deep leagues if you need some blockage. Speaking of blockage, look at some of the traffic photos of NC from yesterday. No one learned from Atlanta! And the best basketball game on the slate, UNC-Duke, cancelled. Travesty. Let's get this global warming going again! Here's what else I saw last night in fantasy hoops:Please, blog, may I have some more?
Yeah, I don't think that title made any sense… But alas weather hath wreaked it's icy cold fist of skulduggery and given me very little time for the update this morning. Concerns over some sort of phenomenon known as "black ice" perils a return journey. I have never heard of such things in NC! Blame those who believe in Global Warming! It ain't warm at all! Sure, sure they're related, but related in a Woody Allen is married to his daughter sorta thing… The cold is ruining my jokes, I swear, it's the cold! I'll try to get to as many things from last night as a I can, but as you probably realized by now, these are a stream-of-consciousness updates. There's no telling where they'll go! So let's go way off the reservation and start with Rudy Gobert. Cue the Stephen Colbert puns! After starting with the big boys, Gobert got some D-League seasoning (we all know the French are good at cooking!) and in 8 games averaged 13.9/11.4 with an even 3 blocks a contest in only 27 minutes per. So the Jazz called him up, and after only 16 total minutes his first two games, got some big run last night with Derrick Favors out for an 8/6/1/1/3/broke Alexey Shved's nose line last night. That's some solid aggressive play! "Shot" 4-5 (I think all 4 were dunks) and looked really solid for a terrible Utah team. If he can get 20 minutes per the rest of the year with an emphasis on late-season development time, he could be a sneaky source of blocks in deep leagues. The Americone Dream! Wait, he's French though… Damn this cold! Here's what else I saw last night in fantasy hoops:Please, blog, may I have some more?
In case you missed it (and let's face it, who's watching Bobcats games?), Kemba Walker had a scary ankle roll Saturday night and will miss 10-14 days. He's gonna need a walker for a while after that! Cricket cricket, cricket cricket. "That's not funny JB, it's just cruel…" So what if I have Cruel Intentions?! Now I wanna make out with Selma Blair… So what if I'm not Sarah MG (I didn't even want to bother Googling that be sure I had it spelled right…)?! This is way off the rails… Back to Walker, he's a guy that relies on speed and explosiveness, so I wouldn't be surprised if it's the full two weeks and even more. Cue the Ramon Sessions puns! As a North Carolinian, I guess I am more a
Hornets Bobcats fan than any other team, so I may be biased, but I like Sessions and think he can be a decent stream the next two weeks in 12-teamers that need a desperate solid starter. He's an emergency Sessions! Hey that's the title! In 38 minutes against the Heat, Ramon went 16/3/5 shooting 6-10 and 4-4 from the stripe. The 5 TOs are no fun, he does turn the ball over a tad too much, but I think the underrated aspect of his game is he constantly gets to the stripe and shoots good FT%. He's at 3.4 makes a game at 79% this year, after being at 83% the previous two seasons. And last year when he was at 27 minutes a game (22 per thus far in 13-14), he hit 4.8 FTs a game. He'll easily get low-to-mid 30 minutes per contest while Walker, Texas Ranger is out, so if you need some scoring, dimes, and that sweet boost of FT shooting in a tough matchup this week or next, or to pad those stats in roto, Sessions is in sess… Eh, well you get it… Here's what else I saw over the weekend in fantasy basketball:

Re-installing Genuine Windows 7HP on a dual boot laptop
This is Chandrasekhar, i joined this forum seeking help on how to revert back to Windows 7 Home Premium.
my laptop (Acer Aspire 5745G) originally has genuine Win 7 HP (no media available) and was recently loaded to dual boot with windows server 2003 (for learning and practicing SAP developer) and Windows 7 Ultimate. The Win 7 Ultimate was a counterfeit license, which i do not want. i want to revert back to my original-genuine Win 7 HP. Even i am getting the alerts/notices from MS that i am using counterfeit License.
can anyone help me with step-by-step process to re-install my Win 7 HP genuine license without disturbing the Win 2003 server installation as i paid highly to a third party for its installation.
thanks in advance for taking time to help me.

2. At the white ACER BIOS screen, hold the Alt key and press the F10 key simultaneously to start Acer eRecovery.
3. Once eRecovery has loaded, click Restore to Factory Default Settings
4. Click OK to continue
5. From here, the eRecovery process will update all the data on the C: drive and restore a fully functional factory image (approximately 10 minutes).
6. Once eRecovery has run, press OK to reboot unit
Note that all data will be lost during this process and your computer will be brought back to it's original factory state and settings.

Win7 x 6 PC's
Everything needed is here to get and keep a perfect Clean Reinstall - Factory OEM Windows 7
including the latest official installer for your licensed version and tool to burn it to DVD or flash stick.
To preserve Server 2003 then during booted Custom install delete the 100mb System REserved partition (if you have it) and Windows 7 partition using the Drive Options shown in Steps 7 and 8 of Clean Install Windows 7. Create a New partition in the space allowing it to include another System Reserved partition if it requests it.
This should both reinstall Win7 and configure a Dual Boot with Server 2003.
If you have not carefully partitioned your HD to add the Server partition then it may have already converted to Dynamic since you can only have four Primary partitions or three Primary and unlimited Logical. So if you're in doubt I would post back a screenshot of Disk Management - Post a Screen Capture Image so we can look it over and make suggestions or help you reconvert to Basic if necessary. A Dynamic disk is only meant to span a partition across multiple HD's.
You can also decide if you want to keep the HP Recovery partition which may no longer run after reinstall. It is only valuable for the Minimal Recovery option it might offer on the more recent models since otherwise it will reinstall all of the HP bloatware which cripples Win7 and is the worst in the industry with HP's. So you might want to test running it to see if it will queue up because if not I would also delete it during the reinstall. HP System Recovery

Comments about International Caravan Leather Storage Ottoman Bench - Checkered:
I have ordered from Hayneedle before and am always pleased with service, & shipping, and large selection. Sturdy, easy to carry around with the handles, made well, the feet screw on in minutes and have a padded bottom that is nice! (no floor scratching) I did not give it 5 stars because the photo is misleading in color. All websites I checked had the same photo. The colors are dark and the other squares almost a beige or light camel color. Ok for my purposes, I will keep it - and maybe even dye the (faux leather) light squares to a darker hue. Size is right for storage.

Our heartfelt prayers are offered on behalf of the victims of the senseless bomb attack during the Boston marathon yesterday. It is only our faith in the Lord Jesus Christ that allows us to confront evil and not be overwhelmed. To the deceased, may God grant eternal rest; to the injured, healing; and to all, renewed hope in the goodness of God.

The great sixteenth century Carmelite mystic St. John of the Cross followed a simple principle that was foundational to his spirituality. He believed that the human soul must empty itself of self and be purified in order to achieve true union with God. He believed that selfcenteredness and excessive material attachments are barriers to divine love and limit spiritual development. It is only when we deny ourselves and are cleansed of sin that we make room for God. Once this goal is reached the soul is immersed in Trinitarian love and is able to radiate that love to the world. These spiritual insights of St. John of the Cross can be very helpful as we begin the season of Lent.
The forty days of Lent provide us with an opportunity for true spiritual renewal as we focus on prayer, fasting and almsgiving which are the traditional disciplines of Lent. It truly is a time of "emptying" so that we can be more available to God, self and others. We try to remove those distractions that keep us from making God a priority in our lives.

I wish to take this opportunity to wish you a very joyous Easter. This is the season of hope as Jesus Christ, our Risen Lord, triumphed over sin and death. The recent election of a new Holy Father is also a hopeful sign.
We pray for Pope Francis and ask our Lord and Blessed Mother to watch over him and to grant him wisdom, health and peace. May this Easter be a time of renewed hope for us all!

As a people of faith we rejoice at Christmas because God is not far from us! We know that with the birth of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, the Eternal Word assumed human form and became like us in all things but sin. God came so near in that humble stable in Bethlehem surrounded by poverty and simplicity dependent upon his parents, the Blessed Virgin Mary and St. Joseph, for love and care. God assumed nothingness in order to be close to us so that we could also be close to him. The Lord is so near to us we need not be afraid. Pope Benedict XVI expresses the same thought when he states, "God made Himself small so that we could understand Him, welcome Him, and love Him" (Christmas Homily 2006). Our Holy Father reminds us that God took the form of a beautiful baby because nothing is more uncomplicated, beautiful, and loveable than a baby. God wants to be so close to us; however, how close are we to God? St. Augustine reminds us that if we are far from God and cannot rejoice it is our own fault. That may seem rather blunt but it is true. God does not force love upon us because we have been gifted with free will. We must choose to be open to God and allow Him to draw near. This is part of the great mystery of faith.

Angelita has landed. Again. But this time, her target was my empty nest, and she's arrived with a freshly printed college degree. Angelita, like my own daughter, is part of a growing number of adult children-dubbed "boomerang kids"-battling the recession by moving back home while scouring job boards for employment. I vividly recall the waves of emotion that flowed over me as she and I packed the final box before she left for college and new adventures. That night, as …

Last week, we told you about the AARP-sponsored job fairs that are taking place all over the country in places that unemployment is highest. The job fairs are geared specifically toward older workers – and this article from U.S. News and World Report today was an interesting read! Because many older Americans are going to need to work longer to be able to finance their retirement, it might be useful to know which industries are likely to be good places …

We already know that the unemployment rate of older workers has skyrocketed over the last decade. Among the statistics, this one: from January 2000 through December 2009, the number of unemployed Americans aged 55+ went increased from 490,000 to 2,114,000. Alarming. In an effort to step up and provide resources for unemployed older Americans, AARP is taking part in "Helping Experience Work@50+"!

Here is an article from Newsweek today on the bounceback of 401(k)s since the stock market has rebounded as of late. However, unfortunately, workers who are very close to retirement have accounts that have less money than they did at the end of 2007 – because their accounts had more to begin with. We're talking about workers aged 55-64, who have been at their job at least 10 years. It may be ironic, but it also makes mathematical sense. The …

Since middle aged adults are the most likely to develop chronic diseases, these preventative measures are all the more important. Check out the article …

There are bears (infrequent, but there) moose, and other forest creatures you might expect to find. All fun to photograph, but in need of your respect. If you were to visit the link to the info page on the Freedom Road Series caches (or the Beef Trail Bypass caches), you will find all kinds of info about safety, local conditions, how to approach the caches, and local cacher etiquette. There are some great pictures in the gallery there that were taken in the area. Any other questions, concerns, or comments can be directly sent to WChilcotinCachers @ gmail.com. We would like to see you here. You will leave with a smile on your face and memories you won't forget.

Right now, the weather is sunny and cool. September is usually one of the most pleasant months ... cool nights and sunny days. It can (and has) dipped to 0C at night, and be in the 20's in the afternoon. For a real time look at the weather, visit images.drivebc.ca/bchi...w/139.html , which is the highway cam that actually points to the Freedom Road Series #1 cache. Weather reporting (finding forecast and conditions) on the web can be problematic as the readings can be misleading. The reporting stations are a Williams Lake and Bella Coola, both of which are a long ways away (in different directions) and have distinctly different environmental situations. After mid-October, there is a greater likelihood of weather concerns. Again, right now there are perfect caching conditions: cool weather, lots of sunshine, no bugs, light traffic. It doesn't get much better than that.

No current Talk conversations about this book.
In 1959 a farmer from Holcomb, Kansas was killed along with his wife and two of his four children by a couple of two-bit thieves. This brutal crime spawned a desperate search for the killers who left bloody footprints at the murder scene. From petty crime to mass murder, In Cold Blood tells the story from murder to the gallows where they were executed by hanging.
In the Truman Capote literary masterpiece, it is easy to consider In Cold Blood a crime novel; it has shades of pulp and southern gothic throughout the book. However this journalistic investigation has often been cited as the first and best example of the non-fiction genre known as true crime. While there have been true crime books before In Cold Blood, this book did redefine the genre. Capote likes to call his book a non-fiction novel which he defined in an interview with The New Your Times as "a narrative form that employed all techniques of fictional art, but was nevertheless immaculately factual".
However this is not just a book about the brutal murder of the Clutter family; we also get a Capote's depiction of rural America. Outside the details of the crime, the author paints a descriptive backdrop of Kansas, the way he sees it. Religion, masculinity, femininity, the nuclear family and small town communities all play a big part in developing the scene. When he talks about the crime, the reader gets to explore the psychological motivations of murder and awaiting execution.
There is the issue of mental illness that needs to be explored when talking about In Cold Blood. It is almost like Truman Capote wants to challenge the reader to consider if Perry and Dick suffered from an untreated mental illness. There are shade of delusional, depression, schizophrenia and a sociopathic personality that comes through when talking about these two people but as this is 1959 I expect no psychological consult or treatment were given to these men; the court rejected the request.
I expected a true crime book but I feel like In Cold Blood was trying to do something similar to One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest by Ken Kesey and The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath. I was very impressed with this book and I feel like Capote may have ruined true crime and even narrative non-fiction for the rest of the authors in these genres. Capote's investigational skills and mastery over the written word is what makes this book a masterpiece.
This review originally appeared on my blog: http://literary-exploration.com/2014/08/30/in-cold-blood-by-truman-capote/
I remember watching the movie, "Capote", with Philip Seymore Hoffman--I loved him, and I thought he was great in that role. He won the Oscar for it! However, I felt like the story itself was a bit on the boring side. (I preferred Capote's "Breakfast at Tiffany's", though I would much rather watch THAT movie!)
Anyway, I was surprised, when I picked up this book, that it reads like a novel. I mean, it's all about events that really took place--and close to where I live, too. But it didn't read like a dry documentary or even like a biography. The way Capote wrote it, it seriously felt like a novel. I was so pleased! I knew what was going to happen in the end, yet I couldn't put it down!
This was, surprisingly, the first true crime novel I have ever read, which is good because it was the start of the genre. I'm very glad i read it!
Capote has a great, engaging writing style. I often forgot that I was reading an account of real life.
Definitely glad I read this.
This was a pretty good book, kind of sad. Dick and Perry decide to rob the Clutter family. When they couldn't get much in the way of money they murdered the whole family. This book really challenged my views on capital punishment. One person in the book said it was revenge. I really don't know how I feel about it. The writing was good. A little slow at times but overall it was entertaining.
I think that an author who can reveal the killers near the beginning, and not only get their reader to finish, but to NONSTOP read the book is indeed highly skilled.
I've always greatly enjoyed murder mysteries, or real life murder stories, etc. mainly for the psychological component of both the criminals and those affected by the crimes. This book encompasses everything I love about crime novel. Amazing!
If nothing else, In Cold Blood justifies another Capote conviction: that when reportage commands the highest literary skills, it can approach the level of art.

Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0679745580, Paperback)"Until one morning in mid-November of 1959, few Americans--in fact, few Kansans--had ever heard of Holcomb. Like the waters of the river, like the motorists on the highway, and like the yellow trains streaking down the Santa Fe tracks, drama, in the shape of exceptional happenings, had never stopped there." If all Truman Capote did was invent a new genre--journalism written with the language and structure of literature--this "nonfiction novel" about the brutal slaying of the Clutter family by two would-be robbers would be remembered as a trail-blazing experiment that has influenced countless writers. But Capote achieved more than that. He wrote a true masterpiece of creative nonfiction. The images of this tale continue to resonate in our minds: 16-year-old Nancy Clutter teaching a friend how to bake a cherry pie, Dick Hickock's black '49 Chevrolet sedan, Perry Smith's Gibson guitar and his dreams of gold in a tropical paradise--the blood on the walls and the final "thud-snap" of the rope-broken necks.

IndyCar discusses investigation into crash that killed Dan Wheldon
IndyCar officials don't believe the construction of the fence at Las Vegas Motor Speedway played a role in the death of two-time Indianapolis 500 winner Dan Wheldon.
Instead, the larger factor was the wide grooves at the speedway that gave drivers a "limitless racing surface."
The investigation into Wheldon's fatal accident determined his head hit a post in the fencing, creating a "non-survivable" injury. Las Vegas is owned by Speedway Motor Sports Inc., and the
organization constructs its fences with the posts inside the wiring.
IndyCar president Brian Barnhart says there is no indication Wheldon would have survived had the post been on the outside of the mesh wiring.

Malaysian restaurant/cafe in the Whitgift Centre in Croydon. They also do takeaway and delivery (but note the early closing times).
It isn't necessarily immediately obvious that there's anything worth eating here, but it's worth looking beyond their hot food counter of generic offerings cooked in advance and kept warm, since they also have a menu of Malaysian specialties photo as of June 2013 — some of these, however, are only available on weekends (e.g. the Hainan chicken rice is only available Friday-Sunday).
bob visited on a Saturday afternoon in January 2011, just before the lunchtime rush. I had one of the weekend specials, the Hainan chicken rice (£5.80) photo, which consisted of some very tasty rice cooked in chicken stock and some very succulent poached chicken.
Kake visited on a Friday lunchtime in June 2012. I got there around 1pm and it was fairly empty. I chose one of the Malaysian dishes, char kway teow (炒粿條; £5.80) photo. They offered me a choice of spice levels; "medium spicy" was around the middle of my tolerance level and I'll probably go for "spicy" next time. It was pretty good, though I think not the best I've had in London. I might have preferred to get more than three medium-sized prawns, and the Chinese sausage that usually features in this dish was entirely absent. However, the squid was nicely cooked (not chewy at all), the fishcake was juicily-textured and well-flavoured without being too salty, and the dish as a whole had just the right amount of oil to stop the noodles sticking together without making it too greasy.
They also do takeaway; Kake got the prawn mee (prawn noodle soup; £6.90) as a takeaway in July 2012. It was well-packaged, with the soup in a cling-wrapped tub separate from the noodles, and a generous portion too. The noodles had a good texture, the prawns were cooked just right (not even slightly overdone), and the broth was wonderfully prawny.
Accessibility: The entrance to the cafe is open and flat. While it is on the first floor, the shopping centre has several lifts. There is only one toilet, but it's an accessible one. There are highchairs available for children (though as of January 2013 these have no trays).

Indian Ocean
Reaching from Africa to Australia, the Indian Ocean covers 23 million square miles, and is the end point for some of the world's great rivers, including the Zambezi, Ganges, and Indus. The Indian Ocean has numerous marine and island jewels that are critical habitat for fish, seabirds, and coral reefs. Especially important is the Chagos Archipelago, one of the most remote and unspoiled marine areas on earth. Located in the middle of the Indian Ocean, the Chagos comprise 55 islands and are home to 700 species of fish, as well as turtles and dolphins. But like the world's other oceans, the Indian Ocean and its marine life are threatened by illegal fishing, climate change, and environmental degradation.
By the numbers
175,000 breeding pairs of seabirds on the Chagos islands
5.8% estimated loss by east African nations because of illegal, underreported, or unregulated fishing
90,000 square kilometers surrounding Maldives islands declared a marine sanctuary

As Prom And Wedding Season Approaches, Jovani Provides Stunning Dresses For Every Woman's Major Milestones
LOS ANGELES, March 15, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- With spring fast approaching, women around the globe are looking forward to prom and wedding season. For women who have yet to find the right dress for these important milestones, the excitement can quickly turn to dread. Fortunately, Jovani has a glamorous and unique dress to ensure every woman looks stunning for her life's most important events.
Jovani understands that every girl's high school experience is different, thus their extensive line of prom dresses run the gamut from elegant ball gowns to sassy cocktail dresses. As this spring's high school seniors celebrate one of life's major milestones, Jovani's 2013 collection of prom dresses offers each young woman the opportunity to express her own unique personality and tastes.
Hot trends like print dresses, seen on celebrities such as Rachel Bilson and Rihanna, can also be found among Jovani's selection of dresses for prom 2013. Independent young femmes sporting a punk rock attitude might check out some of Jovani's funkier animal prints to show off their wild side on the night of the big dance.
One of the most eye-catching dresses to be found for prom 2013 is the Jovani 1650, a strapless with a sweetheart neckline. The ombre beaded dress is styled as a classic gown with an ever-so-slightly provocative thigh slit to offer a hint of sex-appeal. Jovani 1650, available in Gold/Nude, Grey/Nude and Lime/Nude colors, is the perfect dress for turning heads on the night of the big dance.While there is no doubt prom is one of the major milestones in a young woman's life, it still pales in comparison to a woman's wedding day. Jovani understands that a woman's wedding should not only be the happiest day of her life, but also the most glamorous. That's why Jovani wedding dresses aren't just gorgeous; they're an extension of the bride's own unique personality and beauty. Jovani dresses mix tradition with glam, and even a hint of sexiness. From classic white ball gowns with beaded and lace embellished overlay to sexy open backed mermaid gowns, Jovani has a dress for every bride's individual taste and style. By mixing style with tradition and always focusing on the wearer's own uniquely feminine form, Jovani dresses ensure that no one will forget the way each Jovani bride looks on her own special day. With family, friends, and of course her true love present, every bride will look as ravishing as they dreamed in a Jovani wedding gown.

Oh, man I hate the game of finding meds :( But I'm glad you get to live longer :)
When my blood pressure was "high" (it only seemed to spike a bit when I was at appointments but that to me is normal- you're nervous, at least I was) and my grandfather had high blood pressure issues as well and we both started using sea salt instead of the other types of salt and we both could see a difference. I don't think I am much of an example on how it helps but my grandpa is for sure.
I've also heard feverfew capsules is good for arthritis from either Dr. Oz or The Doctors, pretty sure it was Oz. It has a calming effect for inflammation and calms things down. It's in my face lotion to help with the redness.
I know my blood pressure goes up when at the dr office...mine always did too. lately i have been testing it at the drugstore too and with the highs it was a couple years ago at another dr and lately at drug store...now at dr...i need something. mine was in the 150`s this time. at the drug store last time it was 167. so this is just not a one time thing. untill a few years ago i never had an elevated blood pressure.
So i hope it help. it also had a diaretic in the high blood pressure pill and i have peed so much since going on them. I fit better into my pants to...i must have been retaining a LOT of fluids.
Ya i hope this combo of pils does the job.

$10 for $20 Worth of Ecuadorian and Colombian Cuisine
The menu includes churrasco ($11.99); carne asada ($11.99); ceviche de camaron ($9.99); and bandeja paisa ($15.99), a blend of top sirloin, colombian sausage, corn cake, and sweet plantains.
La Colonia Restaurant
The aromas of spicy grilled meats flood the casual La Colonia Restaurant, where guests dig into such Colombian and Ecuadorian specialties as seco de chivo—goat stew with rice and fried plantains—and bandeja paisa, a hearty combination of carne asada, chicharrón, corn cakes, and sweet plantains. The culinary crew pairs these savory dishes with sweet tropical sodas and imported brews to balance out the gustatory excursions.
