Traditionally, pork carnitas are cooked in lard – delicious, but perhaps not the best way to fuel up for a long run. This recipe relies on a bit of olive oil, the fat in the pork shoulder, beer and citrus to achieve a tender braise without the lard. That's not to say it's a lean protein, but a small amount packs a lot of flavor, and on a corn tortilla it's a great vehicle for plenty of healthy toppings. Continue reading
Greens with radishes, almonds, pecorino + creamy herb vinaigrette
Inspired by my favorite salad of all time (little gems with radishes, fennel and crispy pig ears from Publican), this salad has plenty of crunch and a bright, creamy dressing with fresh herbs. Serves 2. Continue reading
Rhubarb-almond cake
From the time I was three to about eight years old, my family lived in a tiny house with what felt like a massive backyard with big trees where we could run wild. In the spring and summer, my sister and I would pick tender stalks of rhubarb from the garden, dip them in a bit of sugar in a repurposed yogurt cup and eat them raw.
Rhubarb is a perfect combination of tart and sweet, and this rhubarb-almond cake from Bon Appetit, with a crust of sugar sprinkled on top, reminds me of my childhood snack. Continue reading
Roasted beets with arugula, gorgonzola + pepitas
I know some people think beets taste like dirt. All those people should go to Dove's Luncheonette and get the roasted chioggia beets with yogurt and serrano vinaigrette. Or make this salad – serves 2. Continue reading
Favorite Bay Area Food + Drink
I maintain that Chicago is the best food city in the country, but when it comes to ambiance, northern California wins. From shuck-your-own oysters on Tomales Bay to In-N-Out Burger after a long hike, to a wine-filled picnic in a Sonoma vineyard, when I'm there I find myself thinking at regular intervals, "BEST DAY EVER."
Cioppino + garlic toast with fresh herbs
Adapted from Bon Appetit, this Cioppino gets additional flavor from homemade stock and a little bacon, and substitutes tasty clams for squid. Serves 6-8. Continue reading
Grilled chicken Souvlaki with pitas + shallot-mint yogurt
One of my favorite meals, perfect for the night before a race or long training run. Continue reading
Arugula with carrot, pepitas, feta + sherry-lime vinaigrette
A bright and crunchy salad perfect for spring. Serves 2.
Holiday meals with the family
When your brother is a classically trained chef, your sister is an impressive baker and cake decorator, and your mother used to own a catering business, you don't mess around with holiday meals.
We have a few traditions – Dad makes cocktails and breaks out the good wine, Mom makes tourtiere, a French-Canadian savory pie with pork, mushrooms, and sage – but the holidays are also a rare occasion to cook together and get creative.
Some highlights:
Photos: Eataly Chicago
I was a little skeptical of Eataly at first – the idea of heading downtown and fighting tourists hungry for Nutella and pizza was not appealing – but I was so wrong. Since Eataly Chicago opened, we find any excuse (birthdays, parents in town, Tuesday…) to have a leisurely, boozy meal and buy fresh pasta to cook at home.

Tom Savini, a makeup artist who specializes in special effects scenes of bodily disfigurement and mutilation, has (for better or worse) played a major role in the development of the modern horror film. It was his innovative work in prosthetics and latex, alongside that of other makeup effects designers such as Rick Baker and Rob Bottin, which at the end of the 1970s assisted at the unholy birth of what has come to be known in critical circles and the fan press as the "splatter movie." This is a form of horror film which brushes aside the Manichean struggles between Good and Evil which had characterized earlier horror films, offering instead a fascination with the impact of violence on the human body. In splatter movies, objects of violence which were usually hidden from view—most notably, the internal organs—are displayed to the film audience in graphic and unforgiving detail.
Savini worked for three years as a combat photographer in Vietnam, and it was there that he first encountered the scenes of violent death which he would later recreate on film. "[In Vietnam], I almost stepped on an arm once," he says. "A Viet Cong was shot by a buddy of mine and when he fell, a grenade he'd had primed under his armpit went off and just blew him to smithereens. I saw a lot of grisly stuff all right, and my stuff in films has been pretty grisly. If I've got anything of a reputation at all, I'm probably notorious for how real my stuff looks . . . well, most of the time. I would say in that respect, the realism of my stuff, the grisliness, the anatomical correctness of it probably does come from that experience. But I don't want to give the impression that I do this work because of my Vietnam experience. Not at all. It's all in the script. Somebody writes this stuff."
Returning to America, he pursued journalism then an acting career for a short while before following in the footsteps of his idol, the silent screen star and makeup master Lon Chaney, and moved into the area of effects makeup for the stage, then the screen. He quickly made a name for himself through his involvement with a number of major (and quite a few minor) horror films, including Friday the 13th and, perhaps most significantly, a series of films for director George Romero— Martin , Dawn of the Dead , Creepshow , Day of the Dead , Monkey Shines .
It can be argued that Savini, through his effects work, offers us a distinctly modern view of an alienated human existence. The assaulted bodies he creates are all flesh, and no spirit. They function as mere containers of organs and liquid substances, as sites upon which various makeup skills and techniques can be unleashed. Like Rick Baker and Rob Bottin, Savini has acquired a substantial cult following, most notably in the pages of Fangoria magazine, but also through books and videotapes detailing his work.
Savini's signature effect is the exploding head: shotgun-to-the-cranium gimmicks feature in Maniac , The Prowler , and Day of the Dead. But the importance of Romero's input to Savini's oeuvre can be gauged by comparing the uninspired decapitations and stabbings of such glumly misanthropic items as Maniac or Friday the 13th with the outrageous, transgressive "splatstick" of Romero's zombie movies—which offer a ghoul losing the top of his head to a helicopter blade like a breakfast egg, a severed head used as a bowling ball with eye-socket fingerholes, or a villain snarling "'choke on 'em" to the zombies gobbling his entrails. Recently, his collaboration with Romero has been eclipsed by work for the Italian visionary Dario Argento, who produced Dawn of the Dead , directed (with Romero) the two-part Two Evil Eyes (for which Savini recreated Poe horrors like the naked woman bisected by a pendulum and the exhumed corpse with all its teeth plucked) and the drab decapitation-saga Trauma (featuring a handy noose gadget that automatically guillotines with as much resonance as an electric can-opener). His fame can be seen as part of the shift in the nature of horror to which he himself has contributed. Within this the increasing foregrounding of and fascination with special effects techniques, both in films and in horror fanzines, has made him as much a star of the genre as any actor or director. "Yes, I think the effects people are becoming the stars of the films," he says. "What the critics say about films like Friday the 13th —that they don't have much plot or characterization and are an exercise in one death after another—is absolutely true. The special effects are the stars of those movies. I can't say that [this] bothers me. But I will say that there was a magic alive in a lot of the older movies—the horror films, the swashbucklers, whatever—that we don't see today. I personally feel that it's a lot smarter to leave things to a person's imagination, let him fill things in for himself. When your mind completes something, it's much more valuable to you, I think."
Part of Savini's familiarity with audiences may also boil down to the fact that he has indeed worked as an actor—taking major supporting roles for Romero in Martin and Knightriders , enjoying himself as a monster-fighting biker dude in Dawn of the Dead and Robert Rodriguez's From Dusk Till Dawn , and playing Jack the Ripper in the made-for-video The Ripper —and branched into direction, with a few installments of Tales from the Darkside on TV and a Romero-scripted remake of Romero's seminal Night of the Living Dead , which surprisingly holds back on the gory make-up effects as it plays clever variations on the original film.

Update on TukhtaTukhta was born in an educated and intellectual family. She has worked with selling dry fruits, more precisely dried apricots, for many years. Currently her husband is immigrating to the Russian Federation, and therefore the burden of caring for the three children and the family economy lies on her shoulders.
Tukhta has already been buying and selling dried apricots for 12 years. At the start of every year she rents an apricot orchard with many trees. She dries and treats the apricots together with her children and sells them at a high price. Last year, she spent more than half of the income on conducting and organizing weddings for her children. Now she is experiencing some difficulties with funding.
Tukhta would like to receive a loan in order to buy apricot trees. She needs the harvest, as she has to feed her children.
Previous Loan DetailsT. Tukhta is 48 years old. She is married and uses all the money she makes to care for her three children and provide for their education. Tukhta has an experience of seven years preparing and selling dried apricots. She always makes very productive use of her capital, adding inventory to her ... More from Tukhta's previous loan »
Additional Information
About IMON InternationalIMON International (IMON) is a micro-deposit organization in Tajikistan that provides entrepreneurs with access to high quality financial products and services, including business loans, agriculture loans, consumer loans and micro-leases. Aiming to alleviate poverty, the organization helps unbanked individuals establish businesses in different sectors, including manufacturing, agriculture and service. Kiva lenders' funds will help the organization to expand its outreach to even more entrepreneurs, farmers and traders in Tajikistan.
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

NEW YORK (AP) - Citigroup says it has agreed to pay $1.13 billion to settle claims by investors seeking that the lender buy back billions in residential mortgage-backed securities.
The New York-based investment bank said Monday that the pact it reached with 18 institutional investors calls for Citigroup to make a binding offer to the trustees of 68 Citi-sponsored trusts that bundled some $59.4 billion in home loans into securities from 2005 to 2008.
The settlement offer, which must be approved by the trustees and the court, would release Citi from having to buy back mortgages sold to the trusts.
But the lender would remain vulnerable to other types of investor claims.
As part of the settlement, Citigroup says it has taken a charge of about $100 million for the first quarter.

My self-summary
Write a little about yourself. Just a paragraph will do.
What I'm doing with my life
Don't overthink this one; tell us what you're doing day-to-day.
I have abandoned my studies, my home, even my kitty so I could move back to Austin and enjoy life again, and hopefully finish at least one screenplay. Can't really date right now as I am surfing couches while trying to find work. But I can meet for coffee if you want to talk.
I'm really good at
Go on, brag a little (or a lot). We won't judge.
Learning! Fixing computers. Cooking. Writing, believe it or not (my not so secret dream is to be a screenwriter), listening.
The first things people usually notice about me
I'm an empty essay… fill me out!
My smile I guess or my height. Right now it's the beard I have grown lol kind of cavemanning it right now.
Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food
Help your potential matches find common interests.
Well, I've been an avid reader all my life so if it's in print I've probably at least flipped through it. Movies I will watch a comedy anytime, horror, action, some kind of medieval fantasy or sci fi adventure will do, too. I have been known to watch things like the Notebook with the right woman but it's not my thing. Music? Classical, jazz, blues, rock, techno, punk, metal- basically anything but rap. Seriously, no rap. My faves are punk, industrial/house/techno/trip/post-punk dance beat kind of stuff, though I don't dance. And new wave, I loved the 80's.
The six things I could never do without
Think outside the box. Sometimes the little things can say a lot.
Laptop. Internet. Electricity. Books. Chinese food. Love. And movies. I love film and some television.
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Global warming, lunch, or your next vacation… it's all fair game.
Why I am almost forty and still stuck in the same rut. What I want to do if I grow up.
On a typical Friday night I am
Netflix and takeout, or getting your party on — how do you let loose?
Doing homework. I know, sad. But I might also watch a movie afterward.
You should message me if
Offer a few tips to help matches win you over.
You like to have fun and are looking for someone to actually care about you and try to please you.

Hello! I usually am a lurker on all things BBC but I thought I would branch out and put myself out there a bit. I am Jennifer, married to Mike, and mother to Jaden (he is 5 ). I am active duty Army, as is the hubby and we are stationed in Fort Stewart, GA. I am embarking on trip 3 (4 if you count a spur of the moment Disney Paris trip in...2008? Possibly 2009). We went May 2010 (predeployment) and November 2011 (the week after Thanksgiving and in-cred-ible... we walked onto literally every ride except for Toy Story in HS). We are leaving 1/1/13 and we are coming home on1/6/13. I have been to Disney probably 35000 times as a child (I was born honestly from Disney fanatics lol). We are doing the dining plan, staying at Pop Century, and plan to drive to all parks as that is what we find most convenient and comfortable for us. We are using the $156/4 day park hopper tickets for the miliary. We are on a budget (Both of us are enlisted lol) but splurge on the dining plan as I like things pre-paid. I would like to think of myself as a Disney expert in training. I love-love-love it and the husband is mostly on board with my obsession lol.... Anyways, I don't have too many questions but if anyone has any insite to the upcoming week, I would be appreciative of it! I am a little nervous about the crowds as I think it will either be super busy or super crowded and I am not sure what. Sooo....
New to group! Trip number 3 next week :)
Hope you have a great time on your trip!
Cara, married to DH 5/06, SAHM to little man- 12/09 and little miss- 7/13
Apart of the Disney nut club. 26 trips down and always planning the next.
Thanks :) I am so so so excited. I wish I had made dining reservations months ago but with miliary and leave you just never know when the leave will fall. I am going to be a sad mama when I get stationed far from Orlando.
First of all, thank you for your service to our great country. I really hope that you enjoy your trip. The Stars and Stripes package was pretty amazing. I am DoD civilian so I am able to get some discounts, although I have never actually used them.
As far as reservations, keep checking. You would be surprised at how many cancellations happen a day. Also try to walk up to places on "off" times. For instance, shoot for a late lunch around 3 instead of the popular 12-2 timeframe. Dinner- try a little earlier or later 4ish or after 7. I have been able to get into places I did not think possible by going at different times.
We went during Thanksgiving week and let me tell you- I was surprised at how well the crowds seemed to be maintained! We didn't "walk on" any rides (our trip in Dec 2010 was PERFECT! LOW crowds and awesome!) but I really didn't feel like we were there with 86million people, you know? So, don't be too worried about the crowds, because somehow it all works out! haha
You GOTTA walk over and check out AoA! I'm sure your son will love the resort. :)
Check EVERY day for reservations! Things open up all the time! And places like Rainforest and T-Rex also have their OWN reservation system apart from Disney, so if you were hoping to go to one of those places, you may be able to call them directly for a reservation!
Christen, Mommy to two sweet and stubborn little girls!
Thanks :) What is AoA? We were planning on trying for a late lunch on 1/1 since we aren't going to parks that day (parks are 1/2-1/5) and to try to get into T-Rex as I am raising a futre Dino Dan. Has anyone done that? I also managed to snag a La Hacienda reservation for 7:15 at Epcot so I am hoping to be able to request a window seat like we did last year. Please keep the tips coming! They are appreciated
Also: thank you for recognizing my service. I truly love my job and am so happy to be an NCO. I love knowing that I am making a difference in raising the future generation of soliders.
AOA is the new Art of Animation Resort. i agree keep checking even day of. I canceled a few ressies last minute myself. Stuff just pops up sometimes.

AoA is the new Arts of Animation hotel. Check it out online. It looks amazing and may be worth a trip to see it.
T-Rex is cool but could be "scary" for little ones. It is very similar to Rainforest Cafe but dinosaur themed. It is pretty new so reservations may be difficult, but again if you are flexible you may be able to score a reservation. It is at Downtown Disney.
(407) 828-TREX (8739) for T-Rex directly! :)

Video: Market to Market
MARKET TO MARKET will continue the tradition that's made it one of the longest-running series on public television and the longest-running agricultural program anywhere - solid reporting about the issues that challenge agriculture and expert analysis of major commodity markets that fuel the economic engine of rural America. Despite the fact that agriculture and rural enterprises represent important sectors in nearly every state's economy, rural America's stories are given scant attention by the nation's traditional media. That's why MARKET TO MARKET'S broad range of reporting - from global trade conflicts to environmental controversies to new technologies to emerging rural economic initiatives -- is so important. As important are the series' experienced market analysts who provide thoughtful insight about price trends and offer strategies to help producers and processors cope with changing times. Mike Pearson returns as host and is nationally recognized for his agribusiness acumen and rural expertise.

Sam Adams University: ale vs. lager
Cold, Hard Football Facts for Dec 20, 2006
There are many subdivisions in those two types – stout, bock, IPA, pilsner and so on – but they're all one or the other basic type. The biggest sellers in the world, the most familiar names, are almost all lagers. On the other hand, most of the familiar American "craft beers" or "microbrews" are ales, with only a couple of exceptions.
What's the difference? It's not color or strength. Some people believe that any dark beer is an ale, and any light-colored beer is a lager. This is a common misconception. But you can't tell the difference by color. There are dark ales and dark lagers, and light-colored ales and light-colored lagers. As we discovered last week, beers are dark because they're made with darkly roasted malts. It could be an ale or a lager.
The difference is fairly simple, but not as obvious as color: Ales ferment and age quickly at warm temperatures; lagers ferment and age slowly at cool temperatures. Each must be fermented with a yeast suited to the right temperature; these are often simply called ale yeasts or lager yeasts. There are some more technical differences, but that's the real one.
So what? Can you taste that difference? You bet. Think of it in terms of jungles and forests.
Warm-fermenting ales are like jungles: a lot of diverse, intense flavors and aromas, intensified by all that heat. Life outside your tiki hut explodes in a wonderful abundance of flavors and aromas, beyond just malt and hops: You might also taste or smell nuts, fruits, spices, butter, earthiness – all from the hot, excited yeast.
Cool-fermenting lagers are like vast northern pine and oak forests. It's cold there, things grow slowly and the habitat is simpler. Step outside your cabin and take a deep breath: That's lager, a beer that gets out of the way and lets you taste the clean flavor of the malt and hops it's made of.
There are other differences, but at the heart of it, it's simple. Warm and complex, cool and smooth: kind of like women and men. It's good to have both, for different occasions.

The Refined Kind Pet Products began in a small apartment in Englewood, New Jersey out of frustration that the current pet products were unnecessarily awkward and overly unattractive. The dilemma presented itself to the founders of the company: how can a pet's needs for functional "furniture" co-exist with the need for a nice looking home. The solution: design pet furniture with both the pet and the pet owner in mind. Assuming that others faced a similar dilemma, The Refined Kind Pet Products was born with the goal to create a line of products that are easy to maintain, fun and functional for pets, in addition to being attractive and customizable to easily blend with any home's decor.

Many women dream about planning their perfect wedding. Those dreams can include when and where their wedding may take place, the colors of dresses and decorations, the design and flavor of a wedding cake and who will share their special day.
It began with "PlentyofFish," progressed to two kids, a barn, two houses and some mighty fine mutts.
When planning their wedding for Sept. 13, 2014, at 4 p.m., Dody Goldsmith and John Knies wanted to keep it fun.
Every year, on Thanksgiving, the Christmas tree overlooking Rushford lights up the night sky for the first night, kicking off the holiday season. It is a beacon that serves to put Rushford Peterson Valley residents in the Christmas spirit.
Simple and easy. This was the goal for local Spring Valley couple, Missi and Cody Koebke, who celebrated their wedding on July 26, 2014.

The problem with beautiful beaches is that they tend to be full of tourists -- people like you and me. But go the extra mile and you can find undiscovered gems, even in the busy Mediterranean. These are some of the best beaches that have escaped the gaze of the great unwashed.
--Mark Hodson, Editor of 101 Holidays
If you're ever on the island of Gozo and stuck for something to do, you might be tempted to hike up to Calypso's Cave, near the town of Zaghra. According to local tradition, this was where Ogygia, the nymph in Homer's Odyssey, holed up. True or not, the most memorable part of the trip is not the cave itself, but the view down. Several hundred feet below you lies Ramla Bay, where the sea is a deep irridescent blue and the sand a distinctive fiery orange. Behind the beach are swathes of dunes and mature tamarisk trees. Truth be told, you might even wish you'd skipped the cave altogether and gone directly to the beach.
To most foreign visitors, Portugal means the Algarve. But the smart folks of Lisbon wouldn't be seen dead mixing with the tattoos-and-lager brigade. Instead, they head to Sesimbra, an atmospheric fishing port an hour's drive from the capital. Although not undeveloped, Sesimbra is authentic, its long beachfront lined with cafes and restaurants where sardines sizzle on charcoal grills. The south-facing shoreline is safe for swimming and there is an old harbour where fish is still sold at daily auctions. Real Madrid manager Jose Mourinho's family home is nearby.
Few tourists make it as far as San Vito Lo Capo in the far north-west corner of Sicily. Although it has one of the island's finest beaches - a scimitar of white sand framed by high cliffs - most visitors are in-the-know Italian families. The town itself is modest, a single strip of bars and trattorias, but there is plenty to see, including the Zingaro Nature Reserve, which begins at the end of the beach. A network of walking trails leads you to deserted coves where buzzards and eagles circle overhead.
Although best known to Greek schoolchildren as the site of a 19th-century maritime victory against the Turks, Navarino Bay in the western Peloponnese has another claim to fame: its beaches are amongst the best in all Greece. Head first to Yialova, a sleepy village with a handful of waterfront tavernas. From there, rent a boat or take the dirt road around the bay's northern perimeter first to the golden sands of Divari then around a headland to the Bay of Voïdhokilia, a tiny cove shaped like the Greek letter Omega. Voïdhokilia is sublime, with calm emerald water and soft dunes that back onto a freshwater lagoon, a protected nature reserve. There are no bars or cafes on the beach and no vehicles allowed - for fear that they might disturb the endangered African chameleons.
Turkey has many pristine beaches, among the finest of which is at Cirali, a long stretch of fine white sand at the mouth of a towering canyon. The beach, an easy walk from the ancient ruined city of Olympos, is a protected nesting ground of loggerhead turtles. After dark, lights on the shore are extinguished so as not to confuse the hatching babies. On a moonless night the view of the Milky Way is phenomenal. There are no banana boats or disco bars at Cirali, just a perfect two-mile beach lapped by clear blue water, and some walking trails that will take you into the surrounding mountains.
Benirras near the northern tip of Ibiza is about as far as you can get from the fevered fleshpots of San Antonio. Here, at the end of a long and winding mountain road, lies a perfect slice of sand bookmarked by cliffs and overlooking a deep calm bay. In the 1960s Benirras became infamous as the scene of drug-fuelled orgies. Today it attracts a stylish mix of young Spaniards, Italians and Swedes, though the hippy vibe remains, and at the end of each day the sunset is hailed with a chorus of bongo players.

Hartford (AP) — A man who alleges he was shot in the face by former New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez in Florida was shot again, this time outside a Connecticut nightclub, where he then opened fire, police said Monday.
Alexander Bradley was shot multiple times in the right thigh Sunday night outside the Vevo Lounge Bar & Grill in Hartford's South Meadows neighborhood and was taken to a hospital under police guard, police Lt. Brian Foley said. His condition wasn't released, but he's expected to survive.
Police haven't announced any arrests.
"Evidence revealed there was a disturbance in the club that was pushed outside by staff," Foley said. "At this point, Bradley was shot. Bradley went to a vehicle, got a gun, then shot up the front of the club."
No injuries were reported.
Responding police officers stopped a car that sped away from the club, and an injured Bradley got out and fell on the street, Foley said. No charges against Bradley were announced.
Bradley's Connecticut lawyer, Robert Pickering, hung up the phone on a reporter without commenting Monday.
No one answered the phone Monday morning at the Vevo Lounge.
Bradley, an associate of Hernandez, alleges in a Florida lawsuit that he lost his right eye when Hernandez shot him in the face as they argued outside a Miami club in February.
Hernandez is detained on a murder charge in the death of Odin Lloyd, a semi-professional football player whose body was found June 17 near Hernandez's North Attleborough, Mass., home. Hernandez has pleaded not guilty.
Boston police, meanwhile, have linked both Hernandez and Bradley to a double homicide in July 2012. Police believe Hernandez and Bradley were in an SUV when someone inside the vehicle fatally shot Daniel Jorge Correia de Abreu and Safiro Teixeira Furtado in Boston's South End, according to a search warrant filed by Bristol, Conn., police.
The warrant doesn't say who investigators believe pulled the trigger in the double killing or suggest a motive. No charges have been filed in the case. The warrant sought recordings of phone calls made by Bradley while he was jailed in Hartford in October for failing to appear before a Massachusetts grand jury investigating the 2012 shooting.
Investigators say they found the SUV wanted in the Boston homicides at the home of Hernandez's uncle in Bristol.
Police say surveillance camera recordings show Hernandez and Bradley going into a Boston nightclub shortly after the shooting victims went into the club. The recordings also show Hernandez driving the SUV out of a nearby parking garage with Bradley as a passenger shortly before the shootings, police said.
Boston police called Hartford police Monday about Bradley's shooting as part of their investigation, Foley said.

Jed, the carcass of one that I have is pretty big, but not unmanageable in the back of a car to get home if you break it down. I don't have enough pieces for mine to get a 'working' model, but I'm scrounging now to turn it into the most rock solid copy stand east of the Mississippi. They weigh a ton, and I'm not going to argue with anyone who can one-hand it either.
(The Phototherm is still going strong, BTW. Thanks a million for that one.)

1And after this it came to be that the children of Mo'aḇ and the children of Ammon came in, and with them some of the peoples, against Yehoshaphat to battle.
2And they came and spoke to Yehoshaphat, saying, "A great army is coming against you from beyond the sea, from Aram. And see, they are in Ḥatsatson Tamar," which is Ěn Geḏi.
3And Yehoshaphat was afraid, and set his face to seek יהוה, and proclaimed a fast throughout all Yehuḏah.
4And Yehuḏah gathered to inquire of יהוה, even from all the cities of Yehuḏah they came to seek יהוה.
5And Yehoshaphat stood in the assembly of Yehuḏah and Yerushalayim, in the House of יהוה, in front of the new courtyard,
6and said, "O יהוה Elohim of our fathers, are You not Elohim in the heavens, and do You not rule over all the reigns of the nations, and in Your hand is there not power and might, so that no one is able to stand against You?
7"Are You not our Elohim? You have driven out the inhabitants of this land before Your people Yisra'ĕl, and gave it to the seed of Aḇraham Your friend forever.
8"And they dwell in it, and have built You a set-apart place in it for Your Name, saying,
9'If evil does come upon us, such as the sword, judgment, or pestilence, or scarcity of food, we shall stand before this House and in Your presence – for Your Name is in this House – and cry out to You in our distress, and You do hear and save.'
10"And now, see, the children of Ammon and Mo'aḇ, and Mount Sĕ'ir, whom You would not let Yisra'ĕl invade when they came out of the land of Mitsrayim, for they turned from them and did not destroy them,
11and see, they are repaying us by coming in to drive us out of Your possession which You have given us to inherit.
12"O our Elohim, would You not judge them? For we are powerless against this great army that is coming against us. And we do not know what to do, but our eyes are upon You."
13And all Yehuḏah, with their little ones, their wives, and their children, stood before יהוה.
14And the Spirit of יהוה came upon Yaḥazi'ĕl son of Zeḵaryahu, son of Benayah, son of Ye'i'ĕl, son of Mattanyah, a Lĕwite of the sons of Asaph, in the midst of the assembly,
15and he said, "Listen, all Yehuḏah, and you inhabitants of Yerushalayim, and Sovereign Yehoshaphat! Thus said יהוה to you, 'Do not fear, nor be afraid of the face of this great army, for the battle is not yours, but Elohim's.
16'Go down against them tomorrow. See, they are coming up by the ascent of Tsits, and you shall find them at the end of the wadi before the Wilderness of Yeru'ĕl.
17'It is not for you to fight in this. Position yourselves, stand still and see the deliverance of יהוה with you, O Yehuḏah and Yerushalayim!' Do not be afraid nor fear, go out against them tomorrow, for יהוה is with you."
18And Yehoshaphat bowed his head with his face to the ground, and all Yehuḏah and the inhabitants of Yerushalayim fell down before יהוה, to bow themselves before יהוה.
19And the Lĕwites, of the children of the Qehathites and of the children of the Qorḥites stood up to praise יהוה Elohim of Yisra'ĕl with exceedingly loud voice.
20And they rose early in the morning and went out into the Wilderness of Teqowa. And as they went out, Yehoshaphat stood and said, "Hear me, O Yehuḏah and you inhabitants of Yerushalayim: Trust in יהוה your Elohim and be steadfast, trust His prophets and prosper."
21And after consulting with the people, he appointed those who should sing to יהוה, and who should praise the splendour of set-apartness, as they went out before the army and were saying, "Give thanks to יהוה, for His kindness is everlasting."
22And when they began singing and praising, יהוה set ambushes against the children of Ammon, Mo'aḇ, and Mount Sĕ'ir, who had come against Yehuḏah, and they were smitten.
23Then the children of Ammon and Mo'aḇ stood up against the inhabitants of Mount Sĕ'ir to destroy and annihilate them. And when they had made an end of the inhabitants of Sĕ'ir, they helped to destroy one another.
24And when Yehuḏah came at the lookout in the wilderness, they looked toward the army and saw their dead bodies, lying on the ground, and none had escaped.
25And Yehoshaphat and his people came to take away their spoil, and they found among them a great amount of valuables on the dead bodies, and precious jewelry, which they stripped off for themselves, more than they could take away. And they were three days plundering the spoil, for it was much.
26And on the fourth day they assembled in the Valley of Beraḵah, for there they blessed יהוה. Therefore the name of that place was called The Valley of Beraḵah to this day.
27Then they returned, every man of Yehuḏah and Yerushalayim, with Yehoshaphat in front of them, to go back to Yerushalayim with joy, for יהוה had made them rejoice over their enemies.
28And they came to Yerushalayim, with harps and lyres and trumpets, to the House of יהוה.
29And the fear of Elohim was on all the reigns of the lands when they heard that יהוה had fought against the enemies of Yisra'ĕl.
30Then the reign of Yehoshaphat was at peace, for his Elohim gave him rest on all sides.
31Thus Yehoshaphat reigned over Yehuḏah – thirty-five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty-five years in Yerushalayim. And his mother's name was Azuḇah the daughter of Shilḥi.
32And he walked in the way of his father Asa and did not turn aside from it, doing what was right in the eyes of יהוה.
33Only, the high places were not taken away, for as yet the people had not prepared their hearts for the Elohim of their fathers.
34And the rest of the acts of Yehoshaphat, the first and the last, see, they are written in the book of Yĕhu son of Ḥanani, which is mentioned in the book of the sovereigns of Yisra'ĕl.
35And after this Yehoshaphat sovereign of Yehuḏah joined himself with Aḥazyah sovereign of Yisra'ĕl. He did wrong in doing so.
36And he joined himself with him to make ships to go to Tarshish, and they made the ships in Etsyon Geḇer.
37Then Eli'ezer son of Doḏawahu of Marĕshah prophesied against Yehoshaphat, saying, "Because you have joined yourself with Aḥazyahu, יהוה shall break up your work." And the ships were wrecked, so that they were unable to go to Tarshish.

Woman thanks Life Care for caring
Dear Community: A special thank you to everyone who works at Life Care of Hendersonville. They have taken care of my mother for two-and-a-half years and have done a fantastic job. I would also like to thank them for the beautiful flowers and the prayers they send to my husband recently when he had his prostate cancer surgery. I can never thank them enough. I have been on the other end.
I was a nurse at Life Care when it opened so I know how hard and stressful it can be to work in the medical profession, but Life Care was a good place to work and it is a good place for my mom, since I am unable to give her 24 hour, round-the-clock care, but all those angels who work at Life Care and the volunteers I thank you from the bottom of my heart. A special thank you to my buddy Milton Wright. You are a good group of people. God loves you, we love you and thank you.

Thanks goes to the honest in Mills River
Dear Community: There are still honest people in the world, and some on them live and work in Mills River.
On a recent trip, I had the misfortune of driving off, after stupidly leaving my pocketbook on the roof of my car. You can imagine my panic when I realized my pocketbook with all the contents were missing. I hurried home to make the necessary calls to cancel credit cards, etc.
Much to my surprise, my answering machine was blinking. There was a call from the Mills River Elementary School. My pocketbook was found and turned into the office. I asked who had found it, so I could thank the individual, but the office did not know who had turned it in.
Nothing was missing and I would like to thank the individual who turned it in from the bottom of my heart. It is nice to know there are still honest people in the world.

Park Ridge Hospital gives great care
Dear Community: There are not enough words in the dictionary to describe how wonderful the care is that I've observed and experienced at Park Ridge Hospital. Since April of last year, my 82 year old mother has had four hospitalizations; the last three stays were at Park Ridge. The care she has received at Park Ridge is something wonderful to see. The nurses, the CNAs, the doctors, the technicians -- everyone was attentive, supportive, and skilled. Sure, that mega hospital in Asheville might have a national reputation, but their local reputation for care simply does not measure up to the care my mother received at Park Ridge.
And she wasn't the only one who was treated as a human being (vs. a slab of meat to be processed, packaged, and put back out -- wherever, we don't really care --Ebefore that Medicare expiration date hits); the staff at Park Ridge was wonderful to me. My mom was not in good shape when she arrived (with Ivan --Eit was an exciting few days there). But, the hospital pulled through the storm and pulled my mother from the brink as well -- all while providing meals, blankets, comfort and care.
The pulmonologist actually came and talked to us every day. And that friendly heart tech doing the ultrasound -- turned out to be the actual cardiologist. Wow. You just don't get that kind of professional hands on contact anywhere else. And they're nice folks to boot. After 12 days, mom was well enough to leave-- but not without lots of hugs and well wishes. I'll miss them all -- the nice lady in the cafeteria, the friendly receptionist, the two "boys" who parked my car and opened the door for me, the kindly nurses who fussed at me to get rest (or cocoa -- as the situation dictated). Such kindness, such care, such skill. To have such a resource here in our community makes us truly blessed. Thank you so much for being there, Park Ridge Hospital. And thanks for saving my mom.

Woo, uh, Mims!
I came to blow a grip
You know I don't care
Grab a couple stacks
Throw the money in the air
Drive the black car
Open up the bar
Shut the club down
Leave with a couple broads
You're ****ing with a star
You can see the glow
I'm pushing forty stacks for a ten minute show
*****, do the math
I'm a need a bath
'Cause I'm filthy rich, making money out the ***
My little cousin told me
This is my year
I won't stop till a ***** shuttin' down Times Square, yeah!
I do this for the block, no lies
So I can drop the top on the 645
See, until you're on top, *****s don't show respect
My name Mims, aka cut the check
See, I keep it so hot, but I never bust a sweat
I used to play the bench, but now I'm on deck
When I'm hopping off the jet, *****s' face look upset
But I'm quick to tell them
It's all right
I'm so quick to tell them
It's all right
Now you know your **** popping when the chick you just met
Got your name tattooed on the *** and the neck
All the ladies love me
I'm their favorite MC
***** true definition, "P.I.M.P."
There ain't a place I ain't been
Every strip, every scene
Like my ***** B.I.G. said, "It was all a dream."
Now I'm sitting in the Beam, inside money green
***** all about the cash; you can tell how I lean
Keep your eyes on the beam like I told you in the hot song
It's all about the cake, being broke ain't an option
Haters in the hood with the heat trying to pop strong
I'm a quick grip when they see me with the rock song
I'm the freshest ************ on the scene
A grand on the jeans sitting on some ice cream
I represent New York, big city of dreams
Where we ride on tens, but you know we keep it clean
See, I lay my game down
Flip a few styles
Ten times out of ten you gon' like the way it sounds
You know I get it in; and if you don't like it, it's fine
So get yours 'cause I'm a definitely get mine
The hottest lyrics from Mims

Who: Dwayne Brice, 30
Store manager/associate buyer, Hu's Wear
What he does: I manage the day-to-day operations of the store, which includes everything from hiring employees and profit forecasting to vendor communications and personal shopping. As associate buyer, I'm charged with seasonal purchasing for Hu's contemporary and designer lines (labels include Donna Karan, the Row, Proenza Schouler, Celine, and Lanvin) and assisting the buyer with selling reports and tracking and planning deliveries and reorders.
Describe your work style: Moody. I dress based on my temperament, and as a Scorpio, that can change at any moment. I love dark and brooding, but I find ways to insert color, texture, and patterns. Working in high-end retail has definitely opened my eyes to the importance of quality fabrics and enduring design. Thus, I advocate investing in "forever" pieces, be it a black cashmere V-neck sweater (I could wear one every day) or a great leather bag (I'm never caught without one).
Outfit One: Standard Day at the Store
This is a staple work outfit for me: a great pair of jeans, a tailored shirt, a standout shoe, and loads of jewelry. It's a mixture of ease with a hint of formality. Quality pieces stand the test of time, and I have had everything in this outfit for years.
Jil Sander Shirt, vintage vest, Dior Homme jeans, Lanvin shoes, and jewelry by Louis Vuitton, Hermés, John Hardy, Philip Stein, and Jessica Biales.
Outfit Two: Workin' on the Weekend
The weekends are our busiest periods, and this outfit allows me to have some fun while I run around. Plus afterward I can chill with my 9-to-5 friends who are lucky enough to have the weekend off.
Dries Van Noten shirt (worn with Helmut Lang tank underneath), Nudie jeans, Pierre Hardy sneakers, vintage bag from Dr. K on U Street, Retrosuperfuture sunglasses.
Outfit Three: Evening Event
A classic blazer is great transition piece for taking your day look to evening. I throw on a silk scarf, grab my favorite clutch, and I'm off! In a flash, I'm dressed for a cocktail party, a gallery opening, or dinner at Citronelle.
APC blazer, Jil Sander shirt, J Brand jeans, Maxime Simoens scarf (worn as a tie), Balenciaga clutch, Stubbs & Wootton slippers, Illesteva sunglasses.
Outfit Four: Traveling for Business
Victor & Rolf sweatshirt, Balenciaga button-down, Christian Louboutin sneakers, Louis Vuitton duffel bag.

Living in the shadows of the ongoing war on terror are 1,715 American military people who lost limbs in Iraq and Afghanistan. A few of those brave folks lost all four limbs when bombs blew apart their bodies. In addition, there are now at least 20 new amputee victims because of the brutal terror bombing in Boston.
When reality sinks in and the injured realize how dependent they are without all of their limbs, often there are severe psychological consequences. Many of the soldiers and Marines who lost limbs were self-reliant achievers who lived life on their own terms.
The bombs changed all that.
When I visit Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, D.C., I am struck by the determination of the amputees to put their lives back together, but the rehab process is exceedingly difficult for them and their families. Sometimes the wounded warrior feels guilty that his or her condition is bringing emotional pain to friends and family. You can see that in their eyes.
The United States is a great country, but we do have our failings. Providing for the severely wounded should be a top priority, but it is not. Responding to a lack of urgency on the part of the Defense Department and the Department of Veterans Affairs, a private organization called The Independence Fund was started in 2007 to provide support for amputees. And now something amazing has happened.
A small company in Michigan has invented the Action TrackChair, an all-terrain wheelchair that can literally go anywhere. The chairs are a high-tech marvel. Small switches give physically challenged folks almost full mobility and an acute sense of independence.
The chairs cost about $15,000 each, and therein lies the problem. The federal government is broke after wasting billions of taxpayer dollars on misguided overseas nation-building projects, social justice boondoggles here at home and failed green energy investments like Solyndra.
We the people have to help our wounded warriors regain a semblance of control over their lives, because the federal government will not.
I hope you check out the website independencefund.org. We all need to right this wrong. The technology is available to help amputees, and there is no reason on Earth why every single person who needs a TrackChair shouldn't have one.
So let's make this happen, people. We are Americans.
Finally, I've discussed the situation with President Barack Obama and believe in the weeks to come, a national effort will be launched.
That story: still developing.

Rep Power:
I'd definitely make sure that fuel return line is hooked up (return back to the fuel tank). The mechanical pump will serve as an effective pressure limiter to the electric pump, so it's probably not flooding from excess volume, unless the fuel return line is capped and the fuel has nowhere to go. Possible the idle speed screw bleeds could be fouled. Start at a high idle. There are 2 screws on the front lower section of the carb. Gently flush them down, then unscrew 1.5 complete turns. Start up, get up a high idle around 1500rpm, then take one screw and slowly screw in 1/2 turn. Engine rpm should vary slightly. Then return to original spot. Now unscrew another 1/2 turn, meaning 2 total turns. Better or worse? Leave it where it's best and repeat with the other screw. What you are looking for is where rpm will rise to highest point in response to adjustment. If one or both are bad, you can screw in or out and it'll basically make no difference. One might work, and the other is like being a dumb post, totally useless. If that happens, you have a problem. Could be internal damage, or possibly just crud. If you see improvement, take a test drive on the new settings. I'm thinking you do have a fuel delivery issue. The electric could be failing and needs time to cool off as you indicated earlier. The tandem pump thing was used, usually to help maintain good fuel supply (and combat vapor locking fuel lines), not that it was needed with a healthy factory system. Sounds like they were having issues when they added that. Hate to say it but unless you can verify adequate fuel supply, I'd scrag both pumps for new ones, mechanical first, then electric if needed. I would test a new mechanical with the electric removed and the line spliced, otherwise the possibly dead electric could restrict flow. I'm in South Mississippi. We know hot weather too. Only time I ever experience vapor lock was when I had a temporary 383 in my first car ('69 Charger). It came with a 318 which was being rebuilt, but I needed the car so a well-worn 383 went in. The extra heat from the exhausts was an issue. A little aluminum foil around all the rubber line solved it (no return lines on cars that far back). It'd cut out and I'd have to wait for it to cool off to continue on. Also, once the 318 was back in, it eventually got topped with an Edelbrock 750 AFB. The aluminum body rejects heat several times quicker than steel. Fuel percolation was never an issue. Not to say it can't happen, just sayingit's much more likely a hot spot on a fuel line.
