This tiny pendant is so pretty with delicate blue enameling and a pink rose in the center. It is missing the chain but there are two jump rings on either side of the back where on can be added.
The enameled pendant measures 3/4'' in diameter and the pendant has an overall length of 2-1/2''. It does show some signs of it's age with intermittent wear. I think it is a wonderfully sweet little piece.

Tax season is here. What can homeowners deduct from their filings? While it's always best to consult with a tax professional, we have a list of the benefits some reap just for owning a home. Note that these are for a primary residence, as the IRS only allows you to declare one main home – AKA where you spend most of your time.
· Real Estate Taxes
· Mortgage Interest
· Business Expense (Do you work out of your home?)
· Rental Income (Do you rent out a room or two?)
· Pre-payment Penalties
· Mortgage Insurance Premiums
· Mortgage Points
· Late Payments
You can find more information direct from the IRS here: http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p530.pdf. Remember that taxes are tricky, and your best bet is to always speak with a pro. Give us a call if you have any questions about homeowner benefits.

Lewis Moody cannot recall how many times he has been knocked out cold on a rugby field. He reckons it must be comfortably into double figures, substantially more if you include all those occasions he has been semi-concussed or seriously dazed. Is that not a worry? "No. I think my skull's a fair bit thicker than most, probably due to the fact I have a very small brain," he shrugs. "There's a lot more skull than actual brain matter."
Sometimes it only takes a sentence or two to capture the essence of an interviewee. Here is Moody as his fans know and love him: impossibly brave, reckless in his enthusiasm, a blond tornado with a heart of gold. "Lewis is about to become a dad and we're all thinking 'Who's going to be the kid in that household?'," says his Leicester captain Martin Corry, affectionately. "He's just a permanently over-excited puppy dog."
And this evening, in the cavernous Stade de France, it is the 28-year-old Leicester back-rower who holds the key to this England team's immediate happiness. If he can get to the young French fly-half Lionel Beauxis, or effect a chargedown with one of his suicidal headlong dives, it will give England a foothold in a game in which a good start is everything. Not since the prime of Jean-Pierre Rives has a fair-haired flanker threatened to be so prominent in Paris.
So will Moody or Les Bleus be singing at the end? Before they get too carried away the French might care to listen to "Mad Dog" Moody's mission statement. "You put everything you have on the line every time you play. It's as simple as that. The game's about full commitment to the side and to winning. Rugby is a contact sport. You don't worry about injuries, you just play. If I hadn't taken up rugby I'd be a pot-bellied golfer somewhere who might be enjoying life but not as much as I do now. I remember as a five-year-old the reason I got into rugby was the contact. You can run, pass, kick, smash people. I love this sport."
These enduring child-like instincts explain why Moody does not get as nervous as many before games of this magnitude. "He's been exactly the same ever since I first met him," says Corry, who has long marvelled at the way his friend switches from passive to active the instant he crosses a touchline. "At Leicester he and Geordan Murphy's pre-match routine is doing 40 keepy-ups with a rugby ball. While I have to psyche myself up, he's exactly the same whether it's Tuesday training at the club or a World Cup semi-final. He can switch it on just like that."
It has been the same ever since he first played for Leicester as a teenager in a back row which also included the great Dean Richards and the current England forwards coach John Wells. The son of an engineer "with an artistic side", he might have become a designer or gone into the army but from his early days with Bracknell minis and at Oakham School it was obvious that sport was his true calling. "I can never remember where we play, to be honest, let alone who we've played against," he frowned this week, struggling to recall if England had met France in Sydney or Brisbane in their 2003 semi-final.
At such jaw-dropping moments it is easy to see why he is the butt of so many dressing-room jokes, apocryphal or not. There is one famous tale, told by Murphy, from the days when the pair shared a flat and Moody was in charge of the household bills. One day an angry letter arrived from one of the utility companies complaining about non-payment. "I don't understand it," muttered Lewis, "Last month's statement was great. They even said we had an 'outstanding balance'."
On another occasion, according to Ben Kay, Moody's mother rang up. "Lewis, it's raining, close the windows!" The impending arrival of Moody junior has, inevitably, caused more schoolboy sniggering among his colleagues. "They think there's another loon on the way," shrugs Moody, before explaining his crucial role whenever he assists his wife with her interior design business. "I stand at the back saying 'I wouldn't use the pink there ...' She's definitely the brains."
However, it is Moody who is enjoying the last laugh. Last Saturday he won his 50th cap, charging out so far ahead of his team it momentarily appeared he wanted to take the Wallabies on by himself. He has come through "a difficult period" of injury and non-selection to be England's first-choice openside. And if his country are to reach another final he will be one of the major reasons why.
"The World Cup is the pinnacle of your career. For this side to have got as far as we have is an incredible achievement. The players have had to struggle to get here but they've always believed in each other. We have the confidence and belief to take it the next step.Now it's up to us to put it into practice on the pitch."
Tonight England will need unflinching action men prepared to donate their bodies to the cause. Moody, as ever, will be first in the queue.

And it started.Mature
It all started that night. The night I won't ever be able to forget. The night that everything changed. Yes, one of the best nights of my life.
I lay on my bed waiting for his text. Damn, I really like him, I thought. I still remembered the first time I saw him. Yellow shirt, blue trousers, hair falling on his forehead. I was in the corridor walking towards my class, with my friends when I saw his beautiful face. Yes, beautiful. I liked to call him that. It perfectly described him. I never said that to him though, just kept it to myself. His hazel eyes met my eyes, and I guess, that's exactly when I fell for him. I looked away, suddenly feeling paranoid. I did not want him to think of me as some desperate creep. Why was that, I failed to understand at that moment. I thought about him the whole day and could not stop wondering if he had a girlfriend. Pshht, girlfriends. Wrong, I know, but he did look like a playboy, after all. How could such a hot person, like him, just not, not be a playboy? And somewhere deep in my mind I could not stop wondering if I had a chance with him or not...
Just when I was living that moment again, my phone beeped. I loved talking to this guy. I was finally going to tell him today that I loved him. I was nervous, very nervous, probably more nervous than I had ever been in my life up till this point. I knew it would make him happy, but what I did the last time I told him I loved him, was pathetic. It made me sad and I hated myself for that. I, clearly, had no right to hurt someone like that. Another flashback popped up in my mind.
"I can't do this anymore, I think we should just be friends again." I messaged Sam. "Why did you do this to me?" He replied. "I'm sorry, really sorry, but I just don't want to ruin our friendship." And with that, I went offline. I knew I had hurt him, but I just didn't like him in that way. I felt something for Zack. I couldn't do this to both of them. Zack had been telling me that he loved me from the past week. I didn't want him to wait anymore. I wanted to be with him. I wanted to let him know that I loved him. I texted Zack and then when he told me that he loved me, I told him I loved him too. Gosh, I didn't expect him to be that happy. It melted me. I never thought someone could actually be that happy by just knowing that I loved them. I was not used to that. I was used to getting hatred, being abused, being bullied all the time. This was new and I liked it. He told me he loved me again and again and again. All this made me happy. I had put Sam at the back of my mind till I suddenly realized what I had done to him. I didn't like hurting people. I felt bad even when I accidentally hurt a stranger and well, Sam, he was my best friend. The reason I had yes to him on the first place was because I didn't want to hurt him. I never felt anything for him. He was my best friend, that's all. And now all this was killing me.
I went online and checked my inbox. As I expected, there was a message from Sam. "Three words, eight letters, one regret- I love you." This broke me. I had just hurt my best friend so badly. I sucked. I wasn't a good person. I didn't deserve him. I didn't deserve Zack. U didn't deserve anyone. I had to fix this as soon as possible. I had to stop thinking about my feelings. With tears in my eyes, I told Sam that I wasn't going anywhere and I loved him too. It was a lie but I had no other choice. I couldn't see anyone hurt. I knew what this meant, though. I knew I had to tell Zack that I couldn't be with him. This was even harder than telling Sam to be just friends. I rushed to my room and took out a blade from my bag. I couldn't take this pain. It hurt way too much. I was a bitch. I started cutting my arm. It didn't take away the pain but it did temporarily take my mind of it.
Another beep on my phone and I came back from the past. I realized that I hadn't replied to Zack since the past ten minutes. Shit, he'd be upset but I knew exactly how to make him happy today. The thought made me smile.
"You never call me, why?" I texted him, excitedly. Exactly two minutes later, he replied: "You've never asked me to call you." WHAT? Seriously? He could've said something sweet. Well, maybe he thought I'd say no to him. Yeah, that might be the reason. "Lol, you can call me whenever you want to." I replied. "Okay, I will from now on." "Okay.""I love you." Ahh, FINALLY. I've been waiting for him to say these words since we started talking. Okay, it was my turn now. My heart beat faster than before I sent "I love you too." There. I said it. Oh my god. Oh my god. Shit. Shit. Shit. I didn't remember the last time I had been this nervous. "But promise me that you won't ever lie to me." I sent quickly after that. A second later my phone vibrated. Wow, that was quick. "Can I call? You can take as many promises from me as you want to." He had said. "Yeah, sure." Oh my god. I couldn't believe this. He was actually about to call. I wasn't good at talking to someone on phone for long. How would I talk to HIM? I mean, I just got nervous every time I saw him. How would I say "I love you too" to him on phone?
I still remembered the first time I talked to him in person. It was just a few days after we had started texting each other and he had confessed that he loved me. He had texted me that he wanted to talk to me and told me to come to the physics class when everyone had left. That made me nervous too, a thousand times more nervous than this time, actually. Texting him was something different. Hell, seeing him was different too. But actually talking to him was...overwhelming. What if he didn't like my voice or my style of talking? I kept on thinking about this stuff when my friends pushed me towards the door where he was. He was sitting on a chair wearing a black shirt. And he looked breathtakingly handsome. I could just look at his face all day and never get tired. I could smell him from a distance. He was looking right at me which made me even more nervous and I just couldn't look at him. I wanted to, like really wanted to but, he took away the little confidence I had, from me. He gave me butterflies by just looking at me. The way he looked at me made me forget all the worries I had...even that I had a so-called "boyfriend" whom I didn't consider one, though. I kept my eyes on my phone and pretended that I was texting someone when in real, I wasn't. I was just scrolling my messages up and down. He kept on talking and talking and I kept on nodding me head. He was asking me to tell him whether I like him or not. Stupid him, he should've understood by now that all my guts had already run miles away from me. A few minutes later, one of his friends came to the class we were in, to put his bag on his seat. He gave Zack a "oohhh" smile and i wanted to hide in a hole and never come out of it. And then after what felt like an eternity, I heard him say "I love you, Kate." And I looked up at him, right in his eyes." I felt something, I swear I did. I felt like I belonged to him. I wanted to be his, just his. I wanted him to be mine. After like two seconds, I broke our eye contact. I thought I'd fall any second with just what he was doing to me. Urghh. Why was he making me feel this way? When I finally couldn't take the oh-my-god-you're-so-cute-i-want-to-be-yours feeling any longer, I turned around saying "okay, I gotta go" and left, just to feel bad about how rudely I left without saying a proper bye, later. So, I texted him that I was sorry I had to go and he told me that it was okay. Yeah, he wasn't a bitch like me.
He called and I picked up just as my phone rang. Okay, let's do this. "Hello?" I stuttered. "Hey, how are you?" He seemed comfortable, unlike me, and my confidence seemed to come back..a little. "I'm good, what about you?""I'm good too." "Oh." What? Are you out of your mind, Kate? Stop being a bitch. A voice inside my head started to say. "I love you, Kate. I love you so much." Heartbeat fast. Out of breath. OH MY GOD. OH MY GOD. What do I say? Shit. Shit. Shit. "I l..l..love you too, Zack." I stuttered. See? That was not hard. "You won't do what you did the last time, right?" "No, ofcourse not." And all the guilt came rushing back. Not now, Kate. Not now. Just concentrate on what he's saying. "I love you. I seriously do." "I love you too Zack." I managed to say it perfectly this time..well almost. "But promise me now that you'll never lie to me." "I promise, Kate. How can someone lie to a person whom he loves so much?" He said immediately. "I don't know, but you know when someone lies to me, it feels as if I'm not good enough. 'Cause if I was, they would've told me the truth. There wouldn't have been a need to lie to me. It hurts, you know?" "Kate, if someone lies to you, that doesn't mean that there's a fault in you. It's just that, they are the people with flaws. I might lie to a million other people, but I promise that I won't ever lie to you. No matter how bitter the truth is." "Thanks. This means a lot." "I love you." "I love you too." And we talked all night. Talked about random stuff. Talked about him. Talked about me. Talked about us. And somewhere between all our talks, I started to like him just a little more.

Attempt to make conversation with the crab. Maybe it's smarter than it looks?
Despite the fact that there is no other person in the room, you feel a bit self-conscious as the idea comes into your mind to speak with the crab. But then hasn't he - it? - already attempted to communicate with you by pointing at that depression in the wall.
And what did he mean by it? A depression in the wall, a way out? Well, forget that for a minute. Concentrate on the crab. What do you say to a crab that you've just met? 'Hello' sounds a bit lame, you can't say that. You'll have to think of something more profound.
I thought 'hello' was lame and you were going to think of something more...what was your word...profound.
What the hell was that? The crab's reply just came straight into your head, it didn't even speak.
Of course I didn't speak! Please don't tell me that you thought crabs could speak. This is wonderful! I've just made contact with a human, one of the advanced species on this planet, and he thinks crabs can speak. And here I was thinking I had problems.
Now you're awake. You sit bolt upright against the wall, your focus on the crab blotting out the cries of your aching body. So what now? You're still asleep, or in a coma, or crazy? Yeah, that last one sounds plausible. You give voice to it.
'Am I crazy?'
Are you asking me? Let me point something out to you. You've just started a conversation, through the power of telepathy, with a crab. Because of that, you start to wonder if you're crazy. So, in order to find out, you decide to ask the very same crab that caused you to think you were crazy in the first place. I guess that answers your question.
'Who the hell are you?'
Are we really going to discuss existentialism all day, or are you going to get out of here? I've shown you the way.
With it's pincer raised, the crab again pointed to the depression in the wall. As you turn your head to the wall, looking more intensely this time, you notice the wall start to swirl hypnotically, the pattern of bricks spinning.
You know, maybe I'm God and you're my prophet. Remember Moses and the burning bush. Ring any bells? But does it really matter, anyway.
'Is it some kind of portal? What's out there?'
You're not very spontaneous, are you? Are you British? Why don't you go and find out. Oh dear, I've picked the wrong one to ask here.
'Ask to do what?'
I need your help. You want to spoil the surprise of what's through that wall, my friend? I'll tell you...Salvation!

Cedar of Lebanon: Cedrus libani
We supply Lebanese Cedar grown in Europe, English Lebanese Cedar, Welsh Lebanese Cedar, Scottish Lebanese Cedar, and Irish Lebanese Cedar.
Found throughout the Middle East Cedar of Lebanon is also known as true cedar.
Lebanese Cedar heartwood is strongly scented and resinous. Growth rings are marked by darker lines contrasting with the timbers light sandy tones. Straight grained with a medium to fine texture, there may be in-growing bark pockets – a feature of true cedars. Average weight 560 kg/m3; specific gravity .56.
Lebanese Cedar timber is soft and brittle with low bending strength and stiffness, and a low tolerance to shock loads and crushing strength. Due to the resinous nature of the wood it has a very poor steam bending classification.
Lebanese Cedar only has a slight tendency to warp during the drying process. The wood dries out relatively quickly and there is only slight movement in service.
Lebanese Cedar holds, well with nails, screws and glue, it is easily worked with hand and machine tools. The wood produces a good finish when used with varnish, polish, stains and paint.
Lebanese Cedar is a highly durable timber, although it is susceptible to attack by pinhole borer and longhorn beetle. It should be noted that the heartwood is resistant to preservative treatment, and the sapwood is moderately resistant.
Lebanese Cedar timber is used for a variety of purposes including joinery, furniture and building. UK grown Cedar is often park grown and therefore quite knotty, it is mainly used in doors, garden furniture and decorative veneers.

Earlier this week Charlotte Christian WR Bo Hines named Nebraska and NC State as co-leaders for his commitment. On Tuesday evening that tie was broken when Hines committed to the Wolfpack and became NC State's first class of 2014.
At 6-1, 190 pounds, Hines has good size and tremendous speed. He burst onto the recruiting scene earlier this year when he earned wide receiver MVP honors after posting a combine-best 4.41-second 40-yard dash at the Best of the Midwest combine held in Indianapolis (IN).
As a junior, Hines had 45 catches for 795 yards. All of that led to an early NC State offer and the Pack was rewarded earlier this evening.
"Yeah, I committed. I'm real excited about it. I took most of my visits and felt like it was the right place for me.
"Actually, I didn't even go to practice today. I knew where I wanted to go and I made my calls to the other coaches just telling them no because I wanted to tell them in person. The State coaches were really excited. There were some high fives and chest bumps so it was cool."
Some felt the Huskers may have held the upper hand in Hines' recruitment so what sold him on NC State?
"I feel like they're a high character group of guys that are committed to excellence and winning. I feel like we have a chance to win an ACC championship and a national championship with the staff that's up there so I'm really excited to go up there and play."
As the Pack's first commitment for 2014, Hines says he plans to do his part to bring some additional in-state talent with him to Raleigh.
"They (the coaches) were definitely excited about me committing. Being an in-state guy and being a guy that was highly recruited by schools in the state they feel like maybe I can have some influence on some of the other players. And I'm definitely friends with some of the other players that are being highly recruited."
Hines is rated a three-star prospect by Scout.com

Baltimore Orioles (44-37) @ Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim (45-37)
Pitching Probables: BAL Jake Arrieta (3-9, 5.81 ERA) LAA Garrett Richards (2-1, 2.81 ERA)
Game Info: 7:05 PM PT; TV - FSN; Radio - KLAA 830
Garrett Richards looks to set the pace as the Angels, who seem to be reeling as of late, turn the page into a new series. For a while there, it looked as if the Angels were unbeatable any given day but some kinks have since risen. Starting pitching for one is becoming problematic and in turn has dominoed into sluggish bullpen performance.
The offense was stifled by a Cleveland team that, although rather unintimidating on paper, had scored 32 runs in a 4 game set prior to their set with the Angels. But heading into the final series before the break, we have two different stories. The O's have kept pace in the vicious AL East, but have only 4 wins in their last 10, sitting 5 games back in second behind the Yankees. However, they are coming off a superb outing by young Chris Tillman (8.1 IP and leaving with a shutout) and should build upon the series win in Seattle; especially with their fresh bullpen and Arrieta's tendency to leave early in ballgames.
It looks to be a fast-paced, power-packed game with both offenses having the potential for double-digit runs every game. Garrett Richards is absurd at home (2-0, 1.59 ERA) so he may bounce back from a poor start in Toronto. The recent overcast skies at home could give his outfield a boost in the early innings, and may help keep a lead produced from the top of the order supported by scrappy production from the small-ball guys in the bottom of the order.
The Angels lead the season series 4-1, and hopefully they can make it stick with another series win here in Anaheim starting tonight.

Petr Mrazek improves stock in Detroit Red Wings mid-season Top 20
Spring is just around the corner, and as the weather heats up so too does the on-ice action in leagues around the world. As we reach the end of the season in junior hockey and the stretch run in professional hockey we pause to look back at how prospects in the Detroit Red Wings organization have progressed since the puck first dropped last fall.
To borrow a metaphor more commonly associated with the other team Mike Ilitch owns, the Red Wings swung for the fences in free agency during the summer of 2012 and ended up striking out. Upon closer examination, however, it appears that Detroit might have budding stars within the organization that could make people forget the summer of 2012 altogether in the very near future.… read more
I don't know if I'd say they swung for the fences this offseason. Signing Samuelsson, Gustavsson, and Tootoo is closer to bunting. Three times.
The first two struck out, and Tootoo got a single, stole second, and then the coach put in a pinch runner because the game got a little too exciting.
Edit: Forgot Colaiacovo. He was hit by a pitch.
ANYWAYS. Rankings look pretty good. I'd say everyone in the top 5 is pretty interchangeable. Mrazek definitely deserved the bump.
I think the term swung for the fences is typically associated with striking out. The old saying swing for singles and you'll get more home runs. Swing for the fences and you'll strike out.
The prospects pool looks really good but Cleary still at least has 5 or 6 more seasons in him
I think Almquist is a bit underrated here, he has the smarts to play in the NHL right now IMO, he just knows how to play the game. Size is the biggest problem, and it wont take too long for him to put on some size. The NHL is in his future, and there isnt anything saying he couldnt be a top 4 pmd right now, but than again I have admittedly always been high on Almquist.
I'd love to see him turn out like Enstrom, I just have a hard time seeing it.

L.A. Confidential (original 1990; edition 1997)

No current Talk conversations about this book.
One of the very few good "recent" noir crime novels I have read. Complex in every way to read but by shifting gears to accommodate the writing style one could go along with what was an experience, not just a story.
This book is just incomprehensible. I saw the movie first, and it was much much better.
I read this book, not sure what I was getting into. All I knew about it is that this is the book that the movie of the same name is based on. Which I hadn't seen.
And I liked it, really I did. But between the length of the novel, the incredibly complex story with a mystery that kept changing (is it a porn thing, or a drug thing, or a mobster thing, or prostitute thing...) I found it hard to follow. Once I got the main characters figured out, initially, I found the change of perspectives difficult to follow, they were what made this book from a mess, into a solid novel. Each of the three characters, Bud White, Jack Vincennes, and Ed Exley, are all very different characters.
This book is dark, violent, and full of non PC language. Yes, its set in the 50's, when the division between races are very clear cut and a person does not cross that line or your career and character are in ruins. It is hard to read at times. Yes, its a work of fiction, but I have no doubt the sentiments in this book are true to the source.
I had seen the superb movie many times (it's in my top five) before reading this book, and wondered how the two would compare. Ellroy's novel is also superb, and in some ways the movie reads directly from it (much of the dialogue is lifted verbatim) but there are huge differences.
Fit into a couple hours and what feels like a year's worth of time, the movie is much more concise. The book is far more sprawling, taking place over almost a decade, connecting to both the prequel ([b:The Big Nowhere|36058|The Big Nowhere (L.A. Quartet, #2)|James Ellroy|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1348561244s/36058.jpg|972626], outstanding) and sequel ([b:White Jazz|101000|White Jazz (L.A. Quartet, #4)|James Ellroy|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1328662450s/101000.jpg|1122011], which is up next). The screenwriters did a fine job capturing the essence of the book while truncating the plot.
The book is far more involved, with more seamy threads, the plot much more byzantine. I was having a tough time figuring out how the evil scheme tied together, but Ellroy does a surprisingly good job of tying it together in a short time at the end, so read closely and stick with it. The details and threads are there to allow an observant reader to tie it together.
The book's larger scope lets the three main characters get more face time and more depth. Not to slight Guy Pearce's fine performance, but Ed Exley is a whole new level of fascinating here. Jack Vincennes isn't the super-slick hepcat that Kevin Spacey memorably embodied. Bud White is far less restrained than Russell Crowe made him. The actors who played smaller roles in the movie (James Cromwell, Danny Devito, and David Straithairn) were dead on.
Ellroy's prose is a thing of beauty, with its raw expose of violence and corruption and 50s slang. While the movie was chock-full of badness, it didn't come close to the book. For those unfamiliar with the author: putting it mildly, he doesn't have a good opinion of human nature. No nice guys (or gals) here at all: everyone is broken and disturbed to some extent.
If you like down and dirty crime fiction or film noir at all, this is the book for you. The movie, too.
Such a dark but compelling read. I really enjoy thrillers that deliver a sense of place and time and Ellroy is really good at this. Loved the glimpse into the underbelly of the glam life 1950s L.A.. Cop corruption, Hollywood scum, wanna-be-actors prostituting on the side for survival, corrupt politicians (really?) - depicted very well by Ellroy, who is a master at showing not telling when it comes to characterizations.
(The film version of this book was actually so well done - a pretty rare occasion of the movie doing as well as the book. Yes, there were differences, but Russell Crowe, Guy Pearce and Kim Basinger were so good in their respective roles.)

Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0446674249, Paperback)James Ellroy's L.A. Confidential is film-noir crime fiction akin to Chinatown, Hollywood Babylon, Raymond Chandler, Dashiell Hammett, and Jim Thompson. It's about three tortured souls in the 1950s L.A.P.D.: Ed Exley, the clean-cut cop who lives shivering in the shadow of his dad, a legendary cop in the same department; Jack Vincennes, a cop who advises a Police Squad- like TV show and busts movie stars for payoffs from sleazy Hush-Hush magazine; and Bud White, a detective haunted by the sight of his dad murdering his mom.
Ellroy himself was traumatized as a boy by his party-animal mother's murder. (See his memoir My Dark Places for the whole sordid story.) So it is clear that Bud is partly autobiographical. But Exley, whose shiny reputation conceals a dark secret, and Vincennes, who goes showbiz with a vengeance, reflect parts of Ellroy, too.
L.A. Confidential holds enough plots for two or three books: the cops chase stolen gangland heroin through a landscape littered with not-always-innocent corpses while succumbing to sexy sirens who have been surgically resculpted to resemble movie stars; a vile developer--based (unfairly) on Walt Disney-- schemes to make big bucks off Moochie Mouse; and the cops compete with the crooks to see who can be more corrupt and violent. Ellroy's hardboiled prose is so compressed that some of his rat-a-tat paragraphs are hard to follow. You have to read with attention as intense as his—and that is very intense indeed. But he richly rewards the effort. He may not be as deep and literary as Chandler, but he belongs on the same top-level shelf.
(retrieved from Amazon Thu, 12 Mar 2015 18:01:19 -0400)
Three troubled cops-- Ed Exley, desperately seeking glory; vengeful Bud White, a witness to his mother's murder by his father; and Jack Vincennes, a shakedown artist with a dark secret-- tread a fine line between right and wrong in 1950s Los Angeles.

Gentlemen of taste often prefer a straight-razor shave—but when there's no time for the full cutthroat experience, try this concentrated, creamy shaving soap. Three distinctive Italian formulas ensure a truly personal touch, calling to mind barbershops of a bygone era.
I really enjoy the idea of this, but I'm partial to a soap that works into a lather a little more readily. The scent is cool, minty and fresh, but barely there. In practical terms, the soap is effective, and I get a clean shave each time. Not my favorite, but a decent shave soap.4

...because it makes me smile : )
I like to play with words.... having words around to play.
Finding that 'perfect' combination that captures the light just right. Wrapping them in my page and marvelling at their beauty... the way they sound together...
: )
It makes me feel fuzzy.
Most of my writing tends towards the absurd as it makes me chuckle. I like to chuckle. Often I will write something with the expressed purpose of making myself chuckle enough that I can show it to someone else and hopefully they'll chuckle too, then I'll chuckle 'cause I made them chuckle and we'll both be chuckling.
I like to write to prove I can. I was taught to be such a doubting Thomas.
I love the sensation you get when pieces of plot drop in unexpectedly to say "Hi, I'm here to tidy that up for you"
There's always something new and surprising just lurking beneath the surface when you sit down to write - it teaches us who we are.
I'd almost forgotten the thrill of adventure of unplanned writing when I came on here... I wrote one post - a signature absurdity - and was content to leave it at that... but was drawn back in by the force that drives us all... plus Trish kept on at me.... (for which I am very grateful since I'm loving it).
Writing with other people, without the constraints of deadlines and rigid plotting is a beautiful thing. I like this game we all play together and I thank Nick for letting us use his wonderful garden, without which I'd still be sat inside, staring at the wall.
I write because if you're going to dream your life away, you might as well have proof.
So - I've been dying to ask... why do YOU write?

Samsung has allegedly finished internal investigation over Galaxy Note 7 units plus it's already revealed the findings to external laboratories, like the Korea Testing Laboratory, and UL.
Why Galaxy Note 7 Units Burst
Initially, Samsung -main was vaunted as one of the best-grade Android smartphones consumers could buy, yet this standing was shortly tainted by numerous instances of components that are bursting. The episodes convinced Samsung to trawl back all the components that were affected, but its numerous measures did not straighten out the faux pas. Ultimately, Samsung canceled generation of Galaxy Note 7 handsets totally.
Samsung began investigating the situation immediately, but it'd problem mimicking the conditions under which fire was caught by the apparatus, according to some reports.
The outcome of the investigation have thus far stayed unshared with the press.
Samsung's Next Main
"I feel greatly regretful to discover news of the recent efforts at information infraction and model leak," Koh Dong-jin, Samsung's cellular telephone company leader, said. Diverse and growing conjecture prompted his call about the apparatus.
An official unveiling might be scheduled before, although the Galaxy S8 is going to be published in 2017.

He fought for Charles I and joined him at Nottingham in 1642, then for Parliament at the Battle of Marston Moor in 1644, on account of his attitude towards Covenanters, and four years later was again on the side of the Royalists at the Battle of Preston.
He succeeded as Earl of Tweeddale in 1654, and was imprisoned for support of James Guthrie in 1660. He was a member of the Commonwealth Parliaments of 1656 and 1659.
When Charles II was restored to the throne, he was appointed Lord President of the Scottish Council in 1663 and an Extraordinary Lord of Session in 1664. He was elected in the latter year a Fellow of the Royal Society.[1]
He used his influence to moderate proceedings against the Covenanters, but with the hardening of the official attitude in 1674 he was dismissed from office and from the Privy Council on the advice of Lauderdale.
He returned to the Treasury in 1680. Tweeddale supported William III and became a privy councillor in 1689. He was Lord Chancellor of Scotland from 1692-6.
He supported the Glorious Revolution in Scotland, and was created Marquess of Tweeddale in 1694. As Lord High Commissioner to the Parliament of Scotland from 1694 to 1696 he ordered the inquiry into the Glencoe massacre in 1695. He was dismissed from the Chancellorship in 1696 for supporting the Darien scheme.
His portrait by Sir Peter Lely is held by the Scottish National Portrait Gallery.

Italian tuning firm gives a boost to the Yamaha R3 and KTM RC 390
Ever wanted turbocharge your R3 or RC 390 Well now you can
NOT too long ago, we tested the Yamaha R3 and KTM RC 390 against each other on the road to find out which is king of the A2 sportsbikes.
Over a service station coffee at the end of the day, we talked about each bike's strengths and weaknesses, but the glaring lack of a turbo on each bike never came up.
Is that an oversight on our part? Had we forgotten that everything is better with a turbo? Italian tuning company Performance Technology must think so because it used the recent Verona Motorcycle Show to unveil its turbo kits for the R3 and RC 390, which it says its increase power and efficiency without compromising reliability.
Performance Technology says that turbocharging both bikes increases power up around 60hp and claims that putting a turbo on each of these bikes cold create a new low cost category of performance racing.
We've request pricing and technical information but have been told we'll have to wait for further details but the company has also said it's also working on a turbo kit for the Ninja 300, which will be ready by March, so more details may be available then.

Children discover bodies of murder-suicide victims
A man and woman were involved in a murder-suicide on the Indianapolis east side Monday, and their bodies were discovered by children. It happened Monday morning at a home on North Gale St. near 30th and Sherman.
It's already a sad story in and of itself, but then when you place it a week and a half before Christmas, it makes it downright heart-wrenching.
According to Indianapolis Metro Police, 27-year-old Thomas Emery shot and killed 31-year-old Tamika Jones-Fleming and then turned the gun on himself.
Two children, a six-year-old girl and an eleven-year-old boy, were home at the time of the shooting. According to police, the children told them they heard the couple, who had been together for ten years, but weren't married, arguing last night and heard some commotion. The children came out of their rooms to see what was going on. At that point, the shooting had already taken place, but they didn't realize what they were looking at so they went back to bed.
Monday morning, they woke up around 6:45 am and that's when they discovered the full scope of the situation and called 911.
"It's something they'll remember the rest of their lives. Christmas will never be the same," said Detective Marcus Kennedy, IMPD.
The children have been turned over to the custody of family. It was another heartbreaking scene as they were brought out and embraced by their grandmother and another family member and the children burst into tears.

Nintendo have been in a point were most people thinked that as a hardware and videogame company. I don't think that way but talk to Xbox fans and PS3 fans, they have valid points: Nintendo has been lagging in development of video games sticking to old concepts and seemly not progressing with the market. But after a while we can see that things has been changing for a while now.
One of the first significative parternship that you might recall most recently was Metroid other M, with Tean Ninja, although not the best game in the series, and seriously lacking in some aspects, the game represented Nintendo letting the chance to partner that can work with their own franchise. Personally the game felt different and interesting, but that is a matter of opinions.
Let fast forward to today's Nintendo Direct: Iwata showed us once again the Bayonetta 2 which is exclusive. A partnership with Platinum games which is relatively new producing video games (amazing ones in my opinion), and Bayonetta being as fun and over the top as it is, we had a great partnership. Due to Platinum games too, I'm really eager to play the Wonderful 101 too.
And we heard about Shin Megami Tensei x Fire Emblem... The possibilities for gameplay and history is endless. A demon summoner Marth? I'm all for it. A partnership that is sure to attract people and raise the brows in surprise. Even so I found that Intelligent Systems are making a great work with the recent Awakening, new support mechanics, new visual style... I think they are making a good progress themselves.
We got a remainder of Sakurai working on Namco-Nandai on Smash Bros. ( I particularly thing that Smash has more than enough themselves, but if Namco-Bandai can enrich the game all the better). And here we are talking of one of the strongest brand available for Nintendo. They are clearly looking for ways to enhance what they have, and promote new things.
And one of the Biggest bomb (although I want to talk about Wind Waker HD, I won't) is a new Zelda game in development. To put my surprise in one word: open world. A Zelda were you progress in a non-linear way? tackling the dungeon in any way you desire? That's just awesome. It remind me of Skyrim, and that gives me goosebumps. And open world with the amazing design that Zelda duungeon are known for? It's BIG news if that is how it is, a unique game to be reminded for generation, how I wished for it.
Perhaps Nintendo has been perceived as a little slow in making this kind of proposition... But they are starting huge and showing that the are still a video game juggernaut with tons of possibilities. Taking brave steps in new directions unheard of in recent times, Nintendo is making me look forward, bet we all do, to what new surprise they willing to bring us on E3 and the near future.

Renaissance Salon
Although they moved to new, larger digs in April 2012, the team of expert stylists at Renaissance Salon still delivers the same trusted cuts, colors, and salon services that they've been doling out since 2007. Senior colorists Jennifer and Jessica excel at enriching locks with dimensional color, whereas bridal expert Krista dominates when it comes to readying clients for weddings. Michelle issues precision snips that transform played-out looks into fashionable 'dos, and trendsetter Julie remains ever-vigilant in the hunt for the most adventurous styles. The senior teams is joined by a crew of five fellow stylists and two assistants, but no matter their relative experience levels, their training expectation remains the same; all staff members at Renaissance Salon are required to attend at least two advanced-training seminars annually.

Chapter 2, Part 1
I opened my eyes, not moving as I took in the light bleeding through the slats in my window shade. I had heard of what happened in the aftermath of a night of drinking, and I wasn't sure that I was quite ready to experience that level of torture. I didn't move another muscle, only my eyes. I glanced down at my covers, which were twisted awkwardly around my legs; I habitually sleep in a modified fetal position, but for some reason my body was splayed diagonally across the tiny Twin XL bed. The taste of something bitter and foreign was stuck to the roof of my mouth. Oh, right. Beer.
Gradually, slowly, I raised my head from the pillow, expecting a hammer to come out of nowhere and knock me back down into painful oblivion. To my surprise, no such phenomenon occurred. Instead, as I tentatively swung my legs over the side of the bed, I received only a slight rush of dizziness and a frightening glimpse of myself in the full-length mirror. I never knew my hair could orchestrate itself to make me look quite that insane.
A second rush hit me as I stood up, but it quickly gave way to steadied normalcy. I felt shockingly good; I was pretty sure that last night's foray into the twin worlds of alcohol and disappointment would result in an epic hangover, but apparently I'd escaped unscathed. I wondered how Camilla was doing. I opened my door a crack and looked down that hall; at that exact moment, I caught a glimpse of her pong partner, Alec, disappearing around a corner into the stairwell. I grinned to myself. At least one of us hadn't ended on a down-note.
I tiptoed down the hall to Camilla's room. Jesse, my neighbor from across the hall, opened his door as I passed.
"Fun night?" He asked, raising his eyebrows at my crazy-person hair.
"The funnest." I replied, smiling guiltily and continuing my trek down the hall.
I knocked on Camilla's door. No answer. I reached for my phone to text her, but just as I was about to type out a message her door opened. If my hair made me look crazy, Camilla's whole appearance suggested that she had just recently escaped from a horror movie. Specifically, one in which she was chased through a jungle by a knife-wielding psychopath.
"Amy. Oh my God," Camilla groaned, opening up the door a little wider to let me in.
Her room was a disaster. Clothing was scattered everywhere, and it looked like a hoard of rodents had invaded the food bin under her bed. Camilla herself looked disheveled, to put it mildly; her hair clung to her forehead and cheeks, and the skin under her eyes had melted into a tired, purplish color. She was dressed in a sports bra and oversized basketball shorts. I watched as she attempted to hop up onto her raised bed three times before finally giving up and sitting on her roommate's side.
"Ollie didn't come home last night, and she's at practice this morning, thank goodness," Camilla stared at the floor, massaging her temples. Apparently we weren't all lucky enough to miss the hangover bus.
"So what happened? Did you and that guy…you know?" I asked, giggling despite myself.
Camilla clapped a hand to her forehead, laughing derisively and closing her eyes. "Amy, it was ridiculous. I was definitely drunk, he was definitely more drunk. He kept telling me how we didn't have to do anything and he just wanted to cuddle. Which is what we did, but I'm pretty sure he's the world's worst kisser. Do I have a hickey?" Camilla gestured to her neck.
There was a misshapen brownish mark, but it was small. "Just a little one," I laughed, grabbing a hand mirror off the desk and showing her. "So you just, what, made out? I saw him leaving."
"Just made out. Honestly, I don't remember that much of it. So drunk, definitely. He was nice though, and he didn't push me to do anything I didn't want to do. He kept being like 'you're so beautiful'," Camilla blushed, inwardly delighted with the compliment.
I smiled, jealousy coursing through me. Stupid Will.
"What about you? Did you and Will have fun?" Camilla grinned up at me, obviously expecting a similar story.
"Ugh. No. It was so stupid. We got to the door and I thought he was going to kiss me, and then he tells me he has a girlfriend. What the fuck, right?" On the inside, I was not nearly so blasé about the whole encounter as I was making myself sound.
"What an idiot! That's so lame. Whatever. Want to go to brunch?" Camilla hopped up from her roommate's bed, then immediately sat down again, clutching her forehead once more.
"Definitely. We should probably both clean up a little, though," I said, laughing and gesturing to indicate both of our appearances.
"Right. Shower, change, meet here in twenty?" I nodded, then took off back down the hall. My own roommate, Leanne, had been gone when I woke up, but I returned to find her reading on her bed in our room. She nodded when I walked in.
"Morning. What were you up to last night? I didn't even hear you come in."
"Camilla and I went to a party at a house on Main Street. It wasn't a big deal, we walked back with a couple of upperclassmen." God, I sounded like a college stereotype.
"Huh. Was it fun? You look like you had…fun." Her judgment was palpable.
"It was, but now I feel like shit. And I look ridiculous. Camilla and I are going to go to brunch in a bit if you want to join," I said, feeling the need to reach out. We were all still new at this point, after all.
"I'll pass, but thanks. Have fun!" Leanne nose-dived back into her book. I headed for the shower.
After my shower, I changed into sweatpants and a t-shirt and headed back to Camilla's room. I ran into Jesse en route.
"You guys going to brunch? Can I come? I'm starving," Jesse eased into step with me before I had the chance to agree, and we walked amiably to Camilla's room.
The three of us tramped down the back steps of the residence hall and emerged onto the large paved walkway that connected all of the first-year dorms. It was early yet for a Sunday, but there were several students milling about the walkway or sitting with friends on the expertly-manicured quad spaces. We wandered down that path, idly recapping last night's events. Jesse had attended a small party hosted by some fraternity; he referred to his presence as "dirty rushing", a practice which seemed to indicate a pre-screening for underclassmen before the Greek life festivities began in the spring.
We were approaching the auditorium building, which flanked the back door of the student center. On the far side, I saw a tall, lean boy sitting on the railing of the stairs and smoking a cigarette. He was alone, staring at nothing in particular and apparently unaware of our approach. I hated smokers.
"Jake! Hey, man," yelled Jesse, waving vaguely at the figure of the boy.
Jake turned, holding his cigarette loosely by his mouth with his left hand. He lifted his hand in a gesture of greeting, seemingly unaware of Camilla and I as we stopped across the path from him.
"Jesse. How was the rest of your night?" Jake continued to avoid eye contact with either of us, instead focusing his blue eyes on Jesse.
"Good, man, it was good. I really liked the brothers. What are you up to?" Jesse had an easy, friendly way about him that made this two-way conversation seem normal, despite the presence of two other people.
"A capella auditions. I can't sing for shit, but they called me back for a second one." Jake brought the cigarette to his mouth. I winced inwardly.
"Nice, man, congrats. We're on our way to brunch. I'll see you later," Jesse turned toward the student center, and we fell back in step with him.
Nothing momentous had happened. The only thing I knew about Jake was that he was a smoker, and that, allegedly, he could not sing for shit and yet had somehow been called back to sing for a singing group. I'm all for self-deprecation, but that just seemed like fishing for compliments. I should have disliked him on instinct. Instead, I found myself thinking about his oxymoronic vacant, focused eyes. He oozed charisma. That brief, innocuous little non-interaction should have passed into forgetfulness; instead, it became one of the most fateful days of my next four years.

Joensuu, Finland-based Blancco, a provider of data erasure and computer reuse solutions, has launched an initiative aimed at the data center and cloud computing market about its solutions and best practices for data erasure.
As part of the initiative, Blancco is offering a comprehensive white paper, "Data Erasure Solutions for Data Center and Cloud Computing Security," for download.
According to Kim Väisänen, CEO and co-founder of Blancco, the company's solutions offers three key advantages to data centers:
- Full control and auditability of the data erasure process through detailed reports and centralized management;
- Savings through reuse of existing hardware and configurations like logical drives (LUNs); and
- Opportunities to offer new services such as secure data erasure after data migration or a customer contract ends.
"As data centers grow more complex, we want to spotlight the advantages our solutions offer," Väisänen says. "To eliminate the need for multiple erasure products, data centers with high-end server and SAN (storage area network) environments need a tool that erases a broad range of hardware like Netapp, IBM, Oracle (SUN), HP, EMC, DELL, and Hitachi, as well as Microsoft software. Our solutions are tailored to meet these requirements. They also support virtual environments from both VMware and Microsoft based on vSphere (ESXi) and Hyper-V, respectively."
Blancco's solutions are designed to handle the different levels of data erasure required in a data center: file, LUN, disk, server and storage.
"We are the only provider of a complete portfolio of certified solutions for data erasure from smartphones to mainframes," Väisänen says. "We look forward to continuing our work to help data centers meet their challenges."

Poland Bends the Law to Fight Designer Drugs
The Polish government launched a massive crackdown on shops selling designer drugs after a widely reported death from an alleged overdose. But the Polish authorities are walking a legal tightrope in their effort to shut down all designer drug shops with immediate effect.
"We need to have legal grounds to jail [shop owners]. We don't have them yet," Prime Minister Donald Tusk said on Wednesday. Mr. Tusk said earlier this week the government will act "on the brink of law" to close about 1,000 shops selling designer drugs.
Owners argue that the government has no right to jail them or even close outlets that market legal substances. The Polish law prohibits trade in narcotics, but designer drugs are not on the list of illegal substances.

"You'll get through this. It won't be painless. It won't be quick. But God will use this mess for good. Don't be foolish or naive. But don't despair either. With God's help, you'll get through this."
If we were to be honest, sometime throughout our life, most of us have needed (or will need) to hear these words. Despite all of our best efforts, sometimes life just goes wrong.
- You lose your job.
- Someone you love passes away unexpectedly.
- You lose a baby.
- You or your loved one receive a devastating diagnosis.
- You lose your home to a fire.
- Your relationships are in turmoil.
- You cannot pay your bills.
The list goes on and on. No matter who you are, life is not always going to be a walk in the park. Curve balls will be thrown and we will find ourselves asking, 'Why me? How am I supposed to get through THIS?'
And if you're anything like me, it can seem like when one thing goes wrong, so do a million tiny other things, building up until you feel as though you cannot breathe. It truly seems like things will never get better. Then after time, we realize that they have...not easily and not quickly, but somehow you seem to have made it through to the other side. But not only have you survived it, you have come out better because of it.
And if you're anything like me, it can seem like when one thing goes wrong, so do a million tiny other things, building up until you feel as though you cannot breathe.

But not only have you survived it, you have come out better because of it.
- You lose your job, but are offered a better one.
- After your miscarriage, you become pregnant again and deliver a baby you cannot imagine your life without.
- You fight through your health issues and discover an unknown strength inside of you.
- You experience the struggle, but you come out on the other side stronger, wiser...a fighter.
Isn't it amazing how God can use these difficult times in our lives to create something beautiful? You so often hear from some of the greatest Christian voices that they too have been down to the bottom...but it makes them more relate-able. More reachable. It makes it easy to see the glory of God in them. Amazing. But this story of beauty from ashes is nothing new. God has been using the bad experiences in our lives for good since the beginning, as is told in the story of Joseph. This is just the story that Max Lucado brings to life in his new book, You'll Get Through This.
You fear you won't make it through. We all do. We fear that the depression will never lift, the yelling will never stop, the pain will never leave. In the pits, surrounded by steep walls and aching reminders, we wonder: Will this gray sky ever brighten? This load ever lighten?
In You'll Get Through This, pastor and New York Times best-selling author, Max Lucado offers sweet assurance: "Deliverance is to the Bible what jazz music is to Mardi Gras: bold, brassy, and everywhere." Throughout readers will explore the story of Joseph and the truth of Genesis 50:20 - what Satan intends for evil, God redeems for good, even if it isn't quick and painless for us.
Most of us probably already know the story of Joseph. It's a story so often shared in Sunday School classes- about a man who is sold into slavery by his own brothers, yet remains faithful to God and thrives despite the best efforts to destroy him. It's a pretty wonderful story, but to be honest, not one I really dug into all that deeply. I saw it as a great story of the power of God and the importance of faith, but never really considered how it was also a great example of the above- God taking the negative circumstances and using them for good.
If you are already a Max Lucado fan, you know how beautifully he writes, effortlessly weaving in this age old Bible story that we all know with stories of our own day and age. He shares the story in a way that we can see this is not just an old kids story, but truly a story that we as adults can learn from as well. He truly shows us through all of these wonderful stories-old and new- that we CAN get through this, and that God can use whatever it is to create something beautiful.
If you're going through a rough time, this is a must read. If you've been through a rough time, this is a must read. If you're not there yet, chances are one day you will be, so this is still a must read. I've read several great selections by Max Lucado by now, but this one may just be my favorite! Truly a great read for us all.
You'll Get Through This is available to purchase now at Family Christian.
