The United States has issued an advisory for travelers to Cuba after several foreigners were sickened by cholera in recent weeks.
The message dated Tuesday urges visitors and U.S. citizens living on the island to avoid street food and under- or uncooked dishes such as ceviche.
The Pan American Health Organization says an Italian, two Venezuelans and two Chileans who traveled to Cuba contracted cholera in late July and early August.
Cuban authorities acknowledged a rare outbreak last summer after many years when the waterborne disease was not present on the island.
This January the government announced 51 new cases in the capital, but there has been nothing official since then.
Cholera can kill quickly through severe dehydration but is treatable if detected in time.

By Morgan Smith – PatriotsGab.com
Free agency rumor today is that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers will "eye" WR Wes Welker hard. Welker to the Bucs is a strong, legit possibility considering the Bucs have plenty of room in the cap space to offer Welker the kind of contract he wants. Buccaneers have 30.1 million in cap space available to them to play with.
Tampa Bay was big players in free agency last year, signing Vincent Jackson, Carl Nicks, and Dallas Clark. "That has actually opened a lot of cap room for us going into 2013 — a tremendous amount," Bucs general manager Mark Dominik said. "We've got a chance to be heavily involved in free agency again."

MASTER NOTES: Is one month too short?
There has been a lot of talk about the one-month leagues I ran in July.
About 500 people signed up and filled 18 leagues. Dozens of different strategies were attempted. Some succeeded, many failed.
One league ended up in a tie for first (and remained tied even accounting for individual categories). Another league winner won by half a point, coming from behind in the final week. Four of the 18 champions ran away with winning margins over 20 points.
It was all just like in regular full-season leagues. Except we could do this six times each season.
Those who participated because they had a chance to play against me were duly rewarded. My average finish in these 30-team leagues was a woeful 12th place. I did finish in 6th in one league and in the top 10 in six leagues. It certainly wasn't my best performance but it was educational.
The biggest argument I've heard against the entire concept of a one-month league is that it generates sample sizes that are too small to be representative of the talent on your roster. People liken it to our regular leagues at the end of April. In fact, I caution my readers not to make moves that early because the stats haven't settled down yet.
But here is a piece of long-term research that is very telling:
Of the teams that will eventually go on to win their full-season league, 80% of them will finished the month of April in 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th place. Think about that. Eighty percent of the time, a league's eventual winner will already be sitting in a money spot after one month.
So one month is enough time to provide a sense of which teams are good and which teams are not. One month can determine the early winners and losers based on their performance on draft day. And even in one month, some players will outperform their baseline expectation, some will fall short, but the overall roster will still net out at a level close to the caliber of talent you own.
And that's all we ask for in a one-month league.
Yes, the standings over one month can be volatile, but the standings movement is what provides the daily drama, which is my favorite part. It's the one huge thing missing in daily games.
If you follow the standings in your full-season leagues right now, you typically see teams moving up or down in the categories by maybe one or two places, at most, each day. The standings are pretty well fixed over the course of each week.
In a monthly league, the standings movement is more fluid, similar to what you'd experience in April. The best part is, if I watch a great performance for one or two of my players on TV, that could well buy me 6 or 10 points on a given night. At this time of year, you need a bunch of those great individual performances to have any effect on the standings in full-season leagues.
Yes, our industry was founded on the full-season league, and most people take great enjoyment in working a roster over six months, myself included. I'm not suggesting you give that up. But if your team is struggling, the summer can get very long.
I'll be running a bunch more one-month leagues in September. This is a month that will provide a great challenge, what with the fluidity of major league rosters. I invite you to participate, again for free, before we roll this out in 2014. I'll announce the opening of signups at BaseballHQ.com. But you can get an email reminder if you join the mailing list at ronshandler.com.
I've personally been playing one-month contests for the past year, and can tell you that they are exciting and challenging in their own right. Hope to compete against you next month.

(CNN) — A convicted murderer was on the loose Friday morning after he was mistakenly released from custody in Chicago.
Steven Robbins, 44, convicted for a 2002 murder in Indianapolis, was freed Tuesday because of an error by Chicago court and security officials.
Robbins was taken to Illinois on Tuesday for a court hearing on unrelated weapons and drug charges, according to the Indiana Department of Correction.
Both of those charges were dropped and Robbins was supposed to be returned to an Indiana prison to continue serving his 60 -year sentence for the murder.
That did not happen.
"For reasons yet unknown, the offender was released by Illinois authorities," the Indiana Department of Correction said.
Authorities in Chicago said they are helping in the search and trying to determine why the mistake happened.
"The sheriff has ordered an investigation into the facts and circumstances regarding his court appearance and release from custody," the Cook County Sheriff's Department said.
Authorities released one clue that may help in the search.
On the right side of his neck, there's a tattoo that says Nicole.

Board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Darrick Antell has been chosen as a Top Plastic Surgeon by the New York Super Doctors. Using a rigorous nomination and evaluation process, New York Super Doctors distinguishes the Top 5% of New York City physicians in more than 30 specialties.
Dr. Darrick Antell is a top New York plastic surgeon, who specializes in cosmetic and aesthetic surgery. He repeatedly appears on the Best Doctors Lists for Town and Country, Vogue, and New York Magazine. In a career that spans over twenty years and more than ten thousand procedures, Dr. Antell combines meticulous surgical skills, the latest and safest of medical technologies, and the distinct eye of an artist, allowing his results to whisper, not scream.*
Our New York plastic surgeon is an official spokesperson for the American Society of Plastic Surgeons and has memberships in many regional and national medical societies, including the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery and the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. Dr. Antell is also a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons. He has won numerous awards, including Fellow of the Jacques W. Maliniac Circle of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, Who's Who in Medicine and Healthcare, Who's Who in the World, Who's Who in America, and President's Citizenship Award, Medical Society of the State of New York.
Darrick E. Antell, MD is world renowned for his research of identical twins. The inspiration for his study came when a patient asked: "how long will my facelift last?". Dr. Antell replied that the proper answer to her question would be forever, but prefaced that if she had an identical twin who did not have a facelift, she'd always look younger than her twin. Although both of them would continue to age, the twin without the facelift will be visibly older.* For more information & to watch videos click here.
Dr. Antell began to ponder what different lifestyle choices would do to each twin's skin. If neither twin had a facelift, but one lived a healthier lifestyle, would they age differently? Sun exposure, smoking, alcohol consumption and deep emotional stress were factors in the Dr. Antell's world renowned twin study. How did these factors affect aging skin?

Monday - I'll say this: The Browns DID NOT QUIT. Yeah, yeah, lots of mistakes, but they played the Ravens tougher than a lot of teams out there. At this point, I'd say it isn't just Mayfield that is feeling dangerous; the team around him ain't NO ONE you wanna dare take for granted!3 Replies
Agreed. It was unfortunate at the end, but they really went for it. If that pass wasn't tipped and intercepted, I believe they would have scored.

There's also the matter of that fumble at the goal line where the zebras blew it dead WAY too early. They owed us six points for that!

Anyone on here have any experiance with Copart? Seems like there are some phenomenal deals to be had. WRX with cut seats and scratches for $400 kind of thing. I realize the vast majority are in the States and would require an inspection, just looking to learn from experience.4 Replies
I actually just got registered there. So, not a lot of experience as of yet. There are a lot of rules, fees, etc. Definitely poke around the site for all of that. It is an auction site, so just because you see it at $400, doesn't mean that is where it will be when the auction is complete. For example, there was a Ferrari Testarossa that, to be fair, was in pretty rough shape externally, but not unrepairable. It lingered around $2000 for over a week until it finally got some more bids and sold for $12-15K or so. There are definitely deals to be had. You just need to be patient and careful.
This is one that specifically caught my eye:
But yes, lots going on, action date isn't specified, don't know where to look to see if a license is required, shipping, etc.

Where it said sale date, I clicked "future". Hasn't been assigned an auction yet, they're waiting on dmv processing. Expect the price on that car will go a lot higher near the end of the auction. Still should be a good bit cheaper than buying it retail. Interesting site.
A few things to keep in mind:
You don't need a dealer license in most cases I know about. Just the cash.
And while the Subi you're looking into looks good, remember you are often not getting these cars directly post-collision. You can check out "Samcrac" on YouTube to see how buyers grab a smashed-up car for cheap and then slap-dash them back together to "flip" them.
This includes things like just sawing off the deployed airbags and tucking the remnants back into the pillar/headliner/etc. to make them appear to have been fixed or at the very least "not that bad." Same goes for bodywork, with resprayed front or rear fascias slapped on to--visually, at least--mitigate the damage.
You can see a Jalopnik article here for an honest taste of what you can be in for...
With enough time, money, and elbow grease you can likely turn a wreck back into a semblance of its former self, but check with your insurance company first as most I know of won't insure "branded" title vehicles, period.
And Copart doesn't warranty jack, so they have no obligation to report how the damage occurred, if it occured underwater, how many times it's been brought back to them to "flip" once "some work" has been done to make it prettier the second (or eighth) time around, etc.
I've been involved in several such purchases (for others, with their money), and if you've got the skills and the parts/tools, sometimes you can create a fine ride. What I've NEVER seen is that turning into a fine PROFIT, as pics of it in its destroyed state are on the interwebs FOREVER.
But if you're a marque expert (or have access to one and a huge stockpile of replacement parts), there's a wisp of a chance you'll come out ahead on average. Otherwise it's a LOT of time, money, and effort going into something you might've been able to pick up unsmashed once the bills for rebuilding all come in.
Caveat Emptor...
Heavy rain front moved through last night with temps thankfully just above freezing. Today crystal clear skies, temps in the mid 40's F and 20-30 mph winds with gusts up to 50. We're a long way from the Rose Bowl Parade. :-)
Turned on the end of the Rose Bowl Parade and NBC is having a melt down. One of the final floats tow vehicle caught fire. They put out the fire and had a huge tow truck removing the float but it's blocking the grand finale float. They cut to the host of the hockey game that comes on the air after the parade and his audio was dead. The live TV gods are being being mischievous. Nobody better at the live ironic comment than Al Roker, as only someone with 40 years of live TV experience could do. Worst ending ever for the parade but Al told the truth and made the best of it. Love the unexpected.4 Replies
That rain passed through here as well. Wind too. Wreaked some havoc, but nothing serious. Wish it left us with those sunny skies and mid 40's temps. Instead, we got mid 30's and completely cloudy skies. Oh well. At least there is football on!
At least it washed the salt off the roads.
I am hopeful that a strong El Nino weather pattern will form and hold from now until mid/late April, bringing more winter rain than snow to western Massachusetts, and warmer weather saving a couple of fills on the fuel oil tank during January and February.
Less snow cover also means that predators may have better access to the population of white footed mice, which are primary wildlife reservoirs and efficient transmitters of Lyme disease, carry a lot of black-legged ticks and reportedly infect 95% of the ticks that feed on them.

We watched a few movies in the last weeks. We saw Mule with Clint Eastwood and Vice with Christian Bale. Mule is seriously disappointing, a viewed shared by my son, wife, and I. Vice I thought was only so-so even if Christian Bale really nailed Dick Cheney. My opinion is not shared by my son's and wife, who were mostly positive.
I will admit to not having seen Gotti, but one pattern I've seen is that ANYTIME John Travolta goes into a project with his ego on, he screws it up. Is that what happened here?

Pulled the X1 out of the garage this morning and noticed the front license plate missing. The two screws the former owner had up front were small and no evidence of foul play so figured it fell off. Put an alert on the community web site in case someone found it nearby and started filling out DMV forms to replace it...
Was pondering what could have removed the plate so cleanly without my awareness when both brain cells lit up. I'd run it through the local car wash recently so called down there and the manager had it in his hand. Whew... Normally this story ends with finding the plate at the car wash after paying 25 bucks and filling out multiple DMV forms to cancel old and have new plates re-issued. Breathing a sigh of relief on this one.1 Reply
Good morning.
Anyone have any knowledge they'd like to share about a 3 monitor system? I currently have a pretty standard setup up, running two Samsung 24" monitors side-by-side, and have an excellent opportunity to upgrade. I've looked into it a bit, and it seems the popular options, for a setup I'm considering, consist of three 24" monitors side-by-side-by-side, a slightly bigger/curved monitor in the middle flanked by two 24" screens, or simply switching to an ultrawide monitor. A single ultrawide monitor, while having some appeal, seem the less desirable to me, unless its in the middle flanked by two others. Any of you guys run three monitor systems that can offer some pros/cons?8 Replies
My wife at home runs two 24" and a laptop screen but she hardly use the laptop screen for work, mostly running her TV shows in the background. I personally don't use more than one 27", the laptop hardly used.
This is what some accounting offices use.
I have a smaller ultrawide, from LG, and it's great for financial modelling (helps when you are looking at detailed projections for 35 years). It's not so great for regular tasks, unless you want to read 2-3 pages of contracts side-by-side.
Dell and Samsung now have 49" 5120x1440 monitors on the market, for about $1600, if you want to go all out.

I have two 24in and a 55in tv so we can blow the drawings up really big. We had to install 4K graphics cards with hdmi to do it, and I sometimes have display issues, but it works very well most of the time. My machine is an older quad core with an sad hard drive and 8gigs of ram so it's not exactly a super computer. IT hasn't noticed that I'm still on Windows 7 and I intend to hold out as long as possible. The graphics cards they installed about 4 years ago really don't like 10. I can't remember off hand what card it is, but best guess what ever was cheapest at the time.

Reverse engineered a gut renovation of our CT kitchen when we upgraded appliances. Changed from electric to gas stove that required new external venting. Tile work behind the old vent wasn't right requiring new tile work. Then decided a new kitchen sink was needed and before you know it we're sanding floors, changing cabinets, island, recessed light fixtures and removing popcorn ceiling. Oy-vey. It all starts on Monday and will take 6 weeks if we're lucky.
We live in our kitchen/family room so all furniture and kitchen stuff is now reconfigured in the formal living room and dining room we seldom use. Our first world problem is making that living/dining area our kitchen/living space for the next six weeks.
Proudest moment yesterday was single handedly putting our long 3 person couch on end (minus cushions) on a microfiber throw and wangling it across our hardwood and tile floors through a narrow pass through and down the two steps into the living room without leaving a mark on me, the walls or the couch. Lots of moments it could have gone terribly wrong and definitely getting help for the return trip but sometimes you pull a rabbit out of the hat. :-)6 Replies
Sometimes, Pat, sh!t just works. Feels good when you do something like that, usually without giving it a whole lot of forethought, and it happens. You're never really sure how, but you're pretty sure you couldn't do again in 10 tries.

Yeah, it's sort of a good news / bad news situation. Damping vibration and removing smearing from the sound image allows for better overall apprehension of the music, but it can also make the top octave or two sound brighter, more digital in character.
So I'm going to do a fair amount of listening for the next few days and have my best friend over to get his take on what my system is doing.
My father and I have been attending a NASCAR race each year for the past few years. Always within driving distance. Watkins Glen, New Hampshire, and last year, Pocono. He pays for all of it, I drive. That's the deal.
Anyway, this year, we were undecided on where to go next. So, my dad offered another suggestion. "What about one of those driving experiences?", he said. "They have one at Pocono. Check it out." I did. They offer a few, actually. You can hitch a ride in a stock car if you're so inclined. Or, drive one yourself around the "Tricky Triangle". They also have various exotic car packages that allow you to benefit from the road course contained within the infield and utilizing parts of the main track.
I perused the options and decided that, while the stock car experience would be pretty cool, since I was given my druthers, a Ferrari would be preferable. Dad set it up, so this June (the day after my birthday to be precise) I'll be piloting a 458 Italia; making every effort to keep the shiny side up. Happy birthday to me!!
Stumbled across this today when the wife and I were on our way home from lunch. It's a Honda Beat, made between 1991 and 1996. Yes, it is right hand drive, and much smaller than even these pics make it seem. The body and interior are in pretty rough shape. As you can see, someone hacked up the rear bumper cover to install what I can only suspect is a "fart can" muffler. Sigh... Being a Honda, however, it is most likely mechanically sound. Unless, of course, the installer of the aforementioned muffler messed with the engine too. Hard to say.6 Replies
Cool! I kinda remember that.

Sunday - It was fun to watch both the Colts and the Cowboys exceed expectations yesterday (my expectations, at least!). They both played hard, and while I don't know how much further up the ladder they'll climb, it'll keep the playoffs interesting, at the least.
Also, it looks as though we'll be dropping Spectrum's cable TV service in favor of streaming, in an effort to save a bit of bread here. In fact, I watched the Seahawks-Cowboys game on Hulu with next to no problem. I'll be intrigued to see how things sort from here...5 Replies
We cut the cord quite a while ago. We use DirectTV Now for streaming. Works well, and gets us all the channels we care about. Wouldn't go back to any of the providers at this point.
Spectrum has this tendency to periodically raise prices for TV to the point that people, like us, kick them to the curb. I can't understand how that business model is successful these days. People do have options.
We kicked Spectrum to the curb for tv some time ago, use playstation vue. It has unlimited dvr, rewind, etc. that works flawlessly. Got rid of Netflix over a year ago too. They quit shipping movies on the weekend, and half of the old movies we wanted to watch were no longer available. And the price kept going higher. Set up a raspberry and can watch almost any show or movie for free, including ALL of the ones unavailable to us on netflix dvd.
We have friends who were paying $150 a month to Optimum for cable and after they switched to YouTube TV, Optimum came back and offered them the full TV service they had before for the same price they were paying for YouTube. They declined but it tells you how badly the cable companies are getting killed when they'd match YouTube's price. I knew they'd negotiate a lower price but first time I've heard one match a low monthly streaming price.

Browns are on the rise for sure, I think they have a good shot at making the playoffs next year. Talk about a turn around. Meanwhile over in Pittsburg they are firing everyone but Tomlin. When will the Rooneys realize that Tomlin is the problem? I don't know a single Steelers fan at this point who doesn't think Tomlin needs to go. Oh well, maybe they can trade AB for a QB since Big Ben can't have more than one or two seasons left. I'm surprised he hasn't pulled a him or me thing like Rodgers did.
Dumpster arrived at 8a with electrician and general contractor.
Cabinets, counter, island, recessed lights and everything else including the kitchen sink was gone before noon. We have the complete absence of kitchen. Less than 4 hours to take it all out. Possibly 6 weeks to put the new stuff back in. These guys are good and more concerned with doing it right then doing it fast but their experience and focus is moving things at impressive speed. No big surprises behind the walls or ceilings so 5 hours in we are cautiously optimistic. :-)
Biggest adjustment is not having a kitchen sink and counter. Washing stuff in our bathroom sink with no counter space is already old. My wife and two cats were up a tree initially with invasion upset. It's weird when a group of strangers invade your personal space and literally rip it apart... Even when you've invited them!
Liking the clean pallet that used to be our kitchen/family room. It's where we spend the majority of our time here so we'll enjoy the new stuff many hours every day. I remind myself of that every time I fish a spoon or cereal bowl out of a cardboard box under the dining room table. Change is good...And expensive!!2 Replies

Michael Lai and the Crimson will compete at the Ivy League Championships April 26-28 (Harvard Athletic Communications).
By Daniel Joseph, assistant coach
The Crimson Men returned from the Arizona State University's Thunderbird Invitational motivated and focused. They were back in familiar conditions and were able to get outside for three solid days of practice prior to leaving for Princeton.
The Crimson made the 5-hour drive to the annual Princeton Invitational where they were greeted by cold and rainy conditions. There was heavy rain in the morning and afternoon on Friday and no team was able to play a full practice round. The team was able to be productive by walking the course. Coach Rhoads and the experienced players were able share their knowledge of Springdale Golf Club with Rohan Ramnath (Weston, FL '16) and Un Cho (Ancaster, Ont '16) as this was their first time to Springdale. Springdale is a relatively short golf course for modern standards and defends itself with small, fast, sloping greens. The focus for the team was proper positioning off the tee to allow for good angles on approach shots aiming for centers of greens.
When the team arrived to the golf course on Saturday for the 36-hole first day, the golf course was drying but still wet enough that the tournament employed a "mark, lift, clean and re-mark" policy. The greens were soft and it was common to see approach shots spinning back off the putting surfaces. The Crimson did an excellent job through the morning round. They were positioning themselves in good places off the tee and more importantly on their approach shots to the green. As a result, the Crimson scored well relative to the field. Juniors Michael Lai (Redlands, CA '14) and Theo Lederhausen (Hinsdale, IL '14) combined for 6 birdies and an eagle in round one as they shot one under (70) and even par (71) respectively. The team rounded out with rounds of 75, 76, and 77 by Ramnath, Cho and Akash Mirchandani (Prospect, KY '15). The team found themselves in 5th place after the first round trailing Penn by 8 shots.
The second round started immediately after the first 18 with the possibility of darkness looming. This was the first 36-hole day for the team since the fall and some fatigue set in. The Crimson continued to hit great shots all afternoon. However, great shots were accompanied by a few loose shots and poor positioning that lead to some bogeys and higher. The team persevered through the tough holes and managed their games reasonably well. Ramnath was low for the team in the second round with 4 birdies for (+2) 73 and Lai continued his strong play adding in 2 more birdies and a (+3) 74. Lederhausen (76), Mirchandani (76), and Cho (77) helped the team to a score of 299 and 6th place after 36 holes.
The Crimson showed the most poise and focus of the season during the final round of the Princeton Invitational. Springdale showed its teeth on "Masters Sunday" with difficult hole locations and wind gusts of 20-25 mph. The team hit outstanding shots and managed the course and conditions better than any time this season. They positioned tee shots properly, hit great approach shots to the correct areas of the greens and holed a few putts. Overall, the men gave themselves chances all day and hit good putts (that don't always go in). Lederhausen led the squad with a (-1) 70 followed closely by Mirchandani's return to form with an even par (71) round. Ramnath (76), Lai (77), and Cho (77) helped the Crimson to the 3rd best team score of the third round and 6th place out of a field of 14 teams.
The team returned to Cambridge late Sunday night, with a food and Masters viewing stop along the way. Adam Scott's performance was inspiring and showed his perseverance since his collapse in last year's British Open. There is a lot to be learned from that type of resolve and the men will couple that inspiration with 10 days of hard work and preparation before the 2013 Ivy League Championship at Caves Valley Golf Club in Owings Mills, MD April 25-28.

Hi all,
I'm currently very new to the web development scene, I've only ever briefly touched up on it during university.
I'm currently making a portfolio for LinkedIn and would like my website to be responsive to resizing and mobile compatibility as well as other devices.
The issue that i'm having is that when I try to zoom in and out of the website it seems to be all over the place, the background would not stretch out to fill the screen and the nav bar would not resize. The text would also be a mess.
I've used gumby frameworks as part of the website. The webpage and CSS in question are both called Mainpage (.html and .css) which are attached. I can't attach the frameworks because it sadly takes us too much of the attachment space.
As I said, the code might be horrific to view but I am very new to this and very keen to learn.
Any comments and solutions are welcome, it would be a big help.
Many Thanks

Back Cover:
Julia is a Sary, the soul of a child who died before taking her first breath. Without this 'breath of life,' she and others like her must help those on the verge of suicide. It's a job Julia enjoyed, until the accident that claimed her boyfriend's life—an accident she knows was her fault. If living with the guilt weren't enough, she's now assigned to help a girl dealing with the loss of her mother, something Julia is not exactly the best role model for. If she can't figure out a way to help her, Julia will lose her position in the Sary, something she swore to her boyfriend would never happen.
I greeted his tombstone the way I always did—with a swift kick. The release of frustration was more than worth the sharp pain in my toes. The polished marble tilted to the left because of all my visits; a crooked tooth in the rows of pearly white graves.
I folded my legs under me, shuddering as the chill of the damp grass seeped through my clothes. "I keep hoping one of these days you'll be here waiting for me." The words were tradition. Some small part of me still clung to the hope I'd come over the hill to find him leaning over his grave, wearing a sly smile. He died so very long ago, but I couldn't stop wishing.
Leaning forward, I rested my forehead against my knees and closed my eyes, longing for a few minutes of rest. A few minutes to pretend it was someone else buried beneath me. I tried to explain this to him, but tonight I didn't have the will to pretend it was more than starlight that listened.
It took a long time to notice, building imperceptibly until I finally looked over my shoulder. Someone was there, watching me. It hadn't been a sound that alerted me so much as the feel of their gaze, heavy in the darkness. After so many nights spent here, I could tell the difference.
For just a second, I thought I saw Frederick's tall form step from the shadows. My heart stopped, and I started to scramble to my feet before the breeze scattered my wishful thinking. Scanning the rest of the cemetery, it was clear no one else was around. The sprinklers were hissing their rhythmic beat in the next section over, and it was better to leave before they started watering the grass over his grave. It had to be just my imagination—no one was watching me. It was for the better. If anyone saw me here, there would be problems I couldn't face.
I kissed my fingertips and touched the top of the smooth white stone, anxious now to leave, alert to any movement in the cemetery. "I'll be seeing you," I whispered, wishing it were true. I wound through the sea of identical marble markers, making for the swell of ground at the far end of the cemetery where it was easiest to catch an updraft.
The small knoll overlooked the freeway, which was a little too close for comfort, but at this hour there were no headlights streaking past. I stretched out my wings, their emerald color turned inky black in the moonlight. Each feather ached to catch a hint of breeze. Leaping from the ground, I thrust down hard and was airborne. I circled up, straining, until I reached an altitude where no one would see me from below.
Tilting my wings to swing north, my thoughts wandered to my destination. A silent prayer to whoever might be listening filled my heart, hoping the lonely girl I was supposed to be guarding was safe in her bed. Visiting Frederick—Derek as I'd always called him—was the only thing that kept me sane some nights, but it did nothing to dispel the churning worry over Marcy. In the year since I was assigned to her, it had become obvious she deserved a Sary better suited to helping her. Instead, she was stuck with me, and somehow I was supposed to find a way to ensure she didn't commit suicide.
Saving Marcy was my reward, and my price, for dying before I was born, before taking one miserable breath of life. I still wondered if my choice to join the Sary was worth it.
Three blocks from Marcy's house, an alley cut between several houses. It was nothing more than a walking path, windows shuttered against neighbors' prying eyes. My perfect landing spot. Tucking my wings in, I dropped into the narrow space.
My toes tingled as blood seeped back into them after the chill of higher altitudes. My fingers brushed against the smooth ridges of my wings, saying a silent farewell as I closed my eyes. A brief moment of blissful numb nothingness, gone far too fast, and I was back to being able to blend in at school and work.
The morning was cold, and I'd worked up a sweat racing back from the cemetery. Rubbing my hands against my bare arms, I cursed myself for forgetting my sweater again. Shoes would have been smart, too. I hadn't been thinking about my wardrobe before I changed my form, and I was stuck in what I'd been wearing beforehand. Picking my way around snail shells and sharp stones I made it to the street.
A light in a window here and there was the only indication anyone was stirring in the pre-fab neighborhood Marcy lived in. Soon the men who commuted into the city would be leaving. I needed to be finished and gone before that happened.
Every crack in the sidewalk was familiar as I raced toward Marcy's, keeping to the shadows and out of the direct line of sight from windows.
Marcy's house was the only one on the block where the Christmas lights were already up. That was how she described it, at least. She didn't take them down last year. Or the year before. Last Christmas, I'd helped her replace the busted bulbs so the strands would work over the holidays, but neither of us was up to the job of removing them. Neither was her father.
The front of her house looked just like the one across the street. The faded sign on the door, proclaiming a cheerful welcome to all who entered, was the only thing that distinguished it. Marcy left the sign up, even though it had obviously seen better days, because her mother put it there two days before she was killed.

Deluscious Catering
Recent review: Sarah was polite and interactive and her prices are reasonable. However, here is my constructive feedback. She was an hour late which doesnt sit well for first impression as journey should have been planned prior to the time. Overall, the meals were tasty but too spicy and I would have liked her to ask our preferences first. The sweet potatoes were tasty and right temparature. However, I did not enjoy my seabass as it was very bony which is a health harzard as this could result into choking. I would have preferred a boneless fillet seabass on fish sauce to compliment the dryness.

Neal Jones of In Your Head Radio sent this in.
Recap of Leilani Kai on In Your Head Wrestling Radio, 01/22/2014
by Vic Schiavone
Host Jack E. Jones welcomed legendary ladies wrestler Leilani Kai to IYH Wrestling Radio.
Highlights included the following:
What was the build-up like for you for your match in WrestleMania I? Could you see how big this was going to be?
"I didn't really realize it at first. I did a match with Wendi (Richter), and I retained the belt, but afterwards I had actually gone to Japan and I didn't get back till probably two days before the actual event of WrestleMania. I didn't realize how big it was until I got there. Once I was in the arena, there was so much excitement going on; people running around everywhere, and seeing celebrities and all. I didn't realize how big it was, not at that moment I didn't. I realized it afterwards; they had a big huge party and everybody was there and having a good time and dancing. It was a little bit different, but I didn't realize really how big it was until I was there. I didn't hear much talk about it when I was overseas…I didn't really realize how big it was going to be, but it was the most exciting night of my whole life. I loved it; it was a lot of fun."
Where did your hatred for Vince Russo start?
"It started when he wanted me to do mud wrestling. I had come to the event, I think it was Denver, Colorado, to wrestle a lady named Brandy Alexander, and they just changed it on me and wanted me to do mud wrestling on the show. I was like, 'You've got to be out of your mind; I'm not going to do anything like that.' Now that I think about it, I would do anything if I can let him get in the mud with me, maybe in a cage, and I'll wrestle him and let him see what it feels like. I'd love to do that; get in a mud wrestling match with him in a cage. But that was an awful long time ago, and I just didn't care for that at all. That's not what I'm about, and it really upset me pretty bad; it wasn't a very good scene. I really don't think that he knew what he was doing, I really don't. It didn't do a lot for a lot of the young talent getting in the business; it wasn't good for them at all. I don't think they were treated right and he just messed it up with that cartoonish-type thing. I think it messed it up for a lot of the guys who were really trying to make it in the business and worked so hard to pave for pro wrestling. I just didn't care for the way he pursued his characters or whatever cartoonish things he did. It really made me mad when he said that to me; I was really upset, I think I really went off on him."
Other topics discussed included:
· Who are some of the younger female wrestlers that stand out to her?
· What does she think the differences are between women's wrestling now and when she broke in?
· How did the match against Alundra Blayze at WrestleMania X come about?
· What is the difference in styles between wrestling in Japan and wrestling in the States?
· Why did they change her name in WCW to Patty Stonegrinder?
