...album closes out with the tracks “Cigarettes, Wedding Bands” and “Window Blues.” The former is angsty and Oasis-like, and it’s probably the album’s most redeeming track. The latter is beautiful in its own right, but in the larger context of the album, it’s just more back-porch country-blues.

...just hanged himself,” Bartok recalls. “We had to find the nearest police box and lead the police back to where the body was. That night we both had the same nightmare: that the soul of the man was trying to crawl through the window of our hotel room.” A collaborative effort of respected industry veterans, the film was directed by Sean Cunningham (“Friday the 13th”), Joe Gaeta (“The Matrix”), Ken Russell (“Lair of the White Worm?...
...That window is quickly closing. Since the ARJ21 project was announced, both Bombardier and Embraer have launched models that will rival it.

"It keeps their heads down and limits what they...
...Seeing a window of opportunity in their own sector, officers quickly mobilized, taking cues from the Anbar program and redesigning it to fit local conditions, enlisting volunteers from the town of Musayyib and surrounding villages to be part of ad hoc militias supported and paid by the U.S. military. It's still a work in progress and sometimes dangerously clumsy. Members of the American battalion here recently shot and killed three of the new local volunteers at a checkpoint just north of town, saying they mistook them for insurgents planting roadside bombs...
