Detectives worked for three years to piece together their case in the shooting death of insurance entrepreneur Dirk Houston
It is a case that has unraveled like a steamy soap opera with elements of murder, forbidden love, greed, suicide and family betrayal.
In December, 1991, Dirk St. Claire Houston, known by some as the "King of Insurance," was shot to death in his Laguna Hills office.
Initially, police questioned Houston's wife, Lynn, and her 22 year old lover, Arturo Montes, the family's tree trimmer. But about three months after the shooting, they were found dead of apparent drug overdoses in a Banning motel room. Their suicides came at about the same time Montes was scheduled to take a polygraph test in connection with the murder.
Police continued searching for clues in the case, and after nearly three years, they pieced together evidence allegedly linking Dirk Houston's stepson, Greg Nottage, and Ramon Padilla, a friend of Montes, to the crime.
"St. Claire Associates was growing 20% a year, and the company was writing $50 million in insurance premiums," said Bob Blackburn, a homicide investigator with the Sheriff's Department who has worked on the case since the killing. "It was a very successful business that recruited insurance agents for some of the larger insurance companies, and then got a cut from that."
Padilla and Nottage, who goes by the name Greg Houston, were arrested in September and are awaiting trial on May 15. They have pleaded not guilty to charges of murder and conspiracy to commit murder, and are being held at Orange County Jail in lieu of $250,000 bail each.
"There's no way Greg could have done this because he loved Dirk," said Claude Houston, Nottage's wife. "Dirk was his mentor. This whole case seems like a very bad joke a joke that has gone too far."
No one knows who actually pulled the trigger that night in 1991 three days before Christmas. But at the time of the murder, police said that Lynn Houston, 44, was having an affair with Montes, who was also married.
During an interview from jail, Padilla, who had been friends with Montes since junior high school, said his longtime friend fell for Houston while he worked as a tree trimmer at their home.
"They were in love," Padilla said. "But he was in deep pressure because he was trying to decide whether he should get back with his wife. Art was a very decent man, though. He worked hard and he cared about people."
Aside from the affair, police believe the couple wanted Dirk Houston dead because Lynn Houston would receive $900,000 in life insurance upon his death.
"Lynn and Dirk were inseparable," Beard said in a telephone interview from Mississippi. "They were the best of friends. My daughter loved her husband."
However, police said relations between Dirk Houston and his wife were tense as they were between Houston and his 26 year old stepson.
At last month's preliminary hearing in Santa Ana, Blackburn testified that Houston planned to fire his stepson from St. Claire Associates because he was unhappy with his work.
A week or two before the murder, Nottage also called a friend on the East Coast and asked him for a "throwaway gun,rolex oyster perpetual datejust womens replica," Blackburn said. The friend,oyster perpetual datejust replica, however, never sent a gun and told Nottage he should get a gun in California.
During interviews with police, Nottage said his mother had asked him to destroy Houston's pocket computer and a serial number on his $20,000 Rolex watch. Both items were reported stolen during the murder.
After being questioned by police, Nottage agreed to be wired by police during a meeting with his mother. During that meeting, Lynn Houston told her son, "I am trying to protect you, I'm trying to protect everybody and hold everything together."
Despite the circumstantial evidence, Nottage's attorney, Joseph Heneghan, said there is little evidence to implicate his client in a conspiracy to commit murder.
"It's a real skinny case," Heneghan said. "The case sat for three years, and as far as I can tell, there's no new substantive evidence that's come to light."
Padilla, meanwhile, became embroiled in the plot when Montes asked to get him a gun, police said. Although Padilla never got the gun,replica rolex oyster datejust, police said he accepted $500 from Montes and then went to Houston's office the night of the murder. When Houston called out to them, Padilla told police, they ran away and went home.
Padilla denied having any knowledge of the gun which has not been recovered that killed Houston and denied being present at the time he was killed. But during various interviews with police, he made contradictory statements sometimes saying he was working with Montes to kill Houston and other times, saying he wasn't involved, police said.
"I think I'm innocent because I never conspired to commit murder," Padilla said. "But during the interviews, I was under a lot of pressure. The police were asking all kinds of questions,rolex oyster datejust perpetual replica, and I got confused. I was stressed out."
Meanwhile, as the case awaits trial, relatives of the Houston family say their lives have been tortured by the twists and turns of the case.
"The trauma of losing her husband and then being questioned by police was just too much for my daughter," Beard said. "But now, they're saying my grandson is involved. I don't think I can deal with that. I just want closure to this horrible nightmare."

wife Testifies Against Him,clover necklace van cleef fake
Ronald Samuels' second ex wife testified Tuesday that he hated and despised his first wife and repeatedly said she was a "gold digger" who "should be dead."
In a soft spoken Southern drawl, Deborah Love, 52, admitted lying for Samuels and helping him launder money from the Cayman Islands in order to avoid paying child support to his first wife,van cleef necklace alhambra fake, Heather Grossman. She testified that she did so because she feared the 6 foot 4 man who weighed nearly 400 pounds and had a quick temper.
"He screams, he has temper tantrums, " she testified Tuesday in the murder for hire case against Samuels, 58,alhambra clover necklace replica, presenting jurors an image of a man obsessed with seeking revenge against his first wife.
Samuels faces life in prison if convicted of masterminding an October 1997 assassination attempt on Grossman and her second husband, John Grossman. Prosecutors allege that Samuels hired crack addicts to murder the Grossmans, but the men botched the shooting and ended up paralyzing Heather Grossman from the neck down and causing only minor injuries to John Grossman.
In late 1992, Love met Samuels, the flashy owner of a Pensacola Toyota dealership, when he was a client at the Pensacola law firm where she worked as a secretary. Samuels was battling Heather Grossman over child support and custody issues.
The two began dating in 1993 and moved in together shortly thereafter. They married in 1996. Samuels was generous, buying Love a Rolex watch and a 5 carat diamond engagement ring, she told prosecutor Al Johnson.
In 1995, Samuels sold the car dealership and put the proceeds in a Cayman Islands bank account, she testified. From then on, household bills were placed in Love's name and everything was paid in cash or on a debit card drawn from Samuels' Cayman Islands account. Love admitted to going to the island to get checks in the amount of $9,900, just under the $10,000 threshold required to be reported to the United States government.
Things turned sour in 1998, she said, after Samuels underwent gastric bypass surgery. He fled to Mexico later that year and Love became a cooperating witness with police, she said.
Love admitted lying to Minnesota police about alleged abuse Samuels' three children suffered at the hands of their stepfather and maternal grandmother. She did whatever Samuels told her to do,van cleef necklace pink replica, she said, including typing and signing a sworn affidavit detailing the alleged abuse, which she testified Tuesday never happened.

Hitchcock highlight classic films in theaters
"Charade" (1963). Can Cary Grant be trusted by Audrey Hepburn after her estranged husband is killed and she's threatened by a trio of thugs? You'll think so, then you won't, then you'll wonder. It's all part of the labyrinth set in Paris and worked up by director Stanley Donen as he wittily apes Alfred Hitchcock for this alternately hilarious and thrilling adventure. Also here are future stars Walter Matthau, James Coburn and George Kennedy. Unusual Cary Grant vehicle is a very well conceived comedy drama with metaphorical political undertones that parallel the McCarthy communist witch hunt of the 1950s. Grant is a doctor teaching at a medical school when his humane, holistic methods come under scrutiny. He also begins a relationship with a single, pregnant patient (Jeanne Crain). Co stars include Finlay Currie, Hume Cronyn, Walter Slezak and Margaret Hamilton. Billy Wilder's classic melodrama begins with William Holden dead in a swimming pool, then he tells the story of his downfall (yes, you read that right). And she was ready for her close up. Erich von Stroheim, Nancy Olson and Jack Webb co star, with cameos by Cecil B. DeMille and Buster Keaton, among others. John Wayne stars in this granddaddy of air disaster movies (nearly two decades before the "Airport" franchise) as first officer of an airliner with 17 passengers flying from Honolulu to San Francisco. After passing the point of no return, the plane develops engine trouble, and among the passengers is an unstable man with a gun. Co stars include Robert Stack, Claire Trevor, Phil Harris, Robert Newton and Utahn Laraine Day. This one's for Mario Lanza fans as the opera singer plays an opera singer who is drafted in the Army and manipulates the system to keep his career going. This light comedy benefits from James Whitmore as Lanza's sergeant, whose sister (Doretta Morrow) sings, as well as Jeff Donnell and Spring Byington. Take note of Lanza's girth, as he was rather heavy when filming began and lost considerable weight by the end of the shoot, causing him to be heavy and lighter from scene to scene. John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara are an impeccable team in this lush romantic comedy drama set in the 1920s. Wayne is an Irish American boxer who returns to his homeland to reclaim family property. There, he meets, romances and marries the difficult, fiery sister of a bullying landowner (Victor McLaglen). Filmed on location in Ireland, the film earned Oscars for both director John Ford and cinematographer Winton C. Hoch, one of the creative hands that developed Technicolor. This dated comedy (cleaned up version of a Broadway play) has hapless Tom Ewell (repeating his stage role), whose wife and son are out of town, fantasizing about romancing the TV commercial actress (Marilyn Monroe) who moves into the upstairs apartment. Although not Monroe's best remembered film,van cleef and arpels clover fake bracelet, this male chauvinist fantasy has a place in film history for the iconic moment when Monroe's white pleated skirt is blown upward as she stands over a subway grate. Considered by fans and critics to be Danny Kaye's finest film (though it was a box office failure in 1956),van cleef arpels fake alhambra bracelet, this musical spoof of Robin Hood has Kaye taking the place of a jester (John Carradine) to gain entrance into the king's court,van cleef & arpels alhambra fake bracelet, where he encounters villainous Basil Rathbone, love starved Angela Lansbury and a witch (Mildred Natwick) who tells him to stay away from the pellet with the poison and go for the brew that is true. Glynis Johns co stars. One of Alfred Hitchcock's best thrillers is this tale of a photographer (James Stewart) confined to his apartment with a broken leg, musing about the other tenants across the courtyard until he thinks he may be witnessing the aftermath of a murder. It had the potential to be static, but Hitchcock's roving camera and alternately humorous and intense setups make it an excellent piece of entertainment that holds up very well. Grace Kelly as Stewart's high society girlfriend and Thelma Ritter as his plain talking nurse are great in support. During World War II, a single minded British colonel (Alec Guinness) in a Japanese POW camp uses the construction of a railway bridge as an excuse to build his men's morale. Meanwhile, a British officer (Jack Hawkins) and an American con artist (William Holden) plot to parachute in and blow up the bridge before it's finished. Winner of seven Oscars, including Best Picture, Best Director (David Lean), Best Actor (Guinness) and Best Screenplay. One of Billy Crystal's biggest hits is this Western spoof about a trio of city bred guys (Crystal, Daniel Stern, Bruno Kirby) who are reaching 40 and suffering mid life crises. So they go off without their wives for a couple of weeks to a New Mexico dude ranch retreat that culminates in a cattle drive, meeting plenty of other city slickers, along with a grizzled trail boss (Jack Palance, in an all too brief role, stealing the show and earning an Oscar). Too sentimental and too long (a full two hours) but when it's funny, it's very funny. This domestic comedy has Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy lying to their wives so they can attend a fraternal lodge convention in Chicago. But, naturally, their plans are upended by fate. Hilarious bits of business throughout the film make this one of the funniest pictures of the 1930s, with help from Charley Chase as an inebriated lodge brother and Mae Busch as Hardy's wife. Considered by fans to be tied as one of the top two Laurel Hardy feature films (the other being "Way Out West" though it's hard to go wrong with these guys). Gary Cooper won the Best Actor Oscar as a veteran marshal in the New Mexico Territory who marries a Quaker (Grace Kelly), turns in his badge and plans to be a shopkeeper. But when he learns that a killer and his gang are gunning for him,van cleef and arpels bracelet replica alhambra, he takes back the badge and tries to get others in town to back him up. But there are no takers. Lloyd Bridges, Katy Jurado, Thomas Mitchell, Lon Chaney Jr., Harry Morgan, Lee Van Cleef and Jack Elam are also on hand.

Nature Meets Craft in Jewelry
PARIS It is 100 years since the decadent poetry of Ren Lalique's jewelry was abandoned by its creator in favor of sculpted crystal objects.
But this week the sleeping beauty of the Lalique world was woken with a new collection based on the love of nature and a fiery imagination that created mythical creatures from peacocks to dragonflies.
A focus on haute joaillerie,van cleef & arpels alhambra fake bracelet, in tandem with the summer 2012 haute couture season last week, brought the Lalique pieces to a mansion in the Place Vendme. The designer Quentin Obadia, saying "the big work was to understand the spirit of Lalique," showed his reinterpretation of the phoenix, the dragonfly and Vesta, the Roman goddess of fire. He also offered more approachable pieces like rings and bracelets, spun off the major work.
Using the founder's revolutionary mix of crystal with precious stones, the designer also infused the style with linear Art Deco shapes and even introduced a contemporary bridal collection, including the house's signature lily of the valley.
Silvio Denz, the Swiss fragrance mogul who bought the Lalique brand in 2008, listed the different "pillars" of the brand,bracelet knock off van cleef and arpels, including crystal, interior decoration and perfumes and now the revived jewelry collection.
At the heart of all high jewelry is the meld of fine materials and exceptional craftsmanship.
Top trends in haute joaillerie:
The jewels on display last week in the Place Vendme reveled in an artisanal approach and in nature, with symbols of birds, stylized flowers and rustic lattice.
Spinels, to avoid the soaring cost of rubies
Sapphires in rare, nonblue shades
Vivid color mixes of fine and semiprecious stones
Deliberately mismatched earrings, playing with contrasting colors or shapes"I wanted to go back to when my mother would take me to Dior as a little girl in the 1970s," said Victoire de Castellane, designer for Dior's fine jewelry. But she was thinking more about craft and artisanal work than the grandeur of haute couture.
The collection that goes on sale in May is based on wicker work, like the chairs that once were used in the couture salon. Redolent of light summer days,sweet alhambra fake bracelet, the Napoleon III cane chair was worked as a yellow gold bracelet, set with colored stones or as a ring (below) with a starting price of 2,000, or $2,630."What could be more Parisian than the Champs lyses," said Lorenz Bumer, talking about the original when he came to Paris in 1854. With a Vuitton dedicated jewelry store set to open in June in the Place Vendme, the designer was inspired by three iconic places: the famous "Champs," the fountains of the Place de la Concorde and the Tuileries gardens.
But abstraction not tourist attraction was the idea of Mr. Bumer,van cleef and arpels fake bracelets, whose diamond grid necklace offered a subtle outline of the Arc de Triomphe, a fountain of sapphire blue water mirrored the Concorde, while an emerald and white gold ring expressed the green public gardens.
Van Cleef Arpels
Love birds, wings in flight and nesting birds have been an inspiration for Van Cleef Arpels since at least the 1930s hence the display of heritage pieces alongside a "Colors of Paradise" collection focusing on lightness, movement and, indeed, color.
A diamond bird motif, with a twist of a tail forming a ring, or a bird flying from a necklace of sky blue chalcedony beads, expressed the sweet side. But Van Cleef's love bird clip, nestling in a turquoise necklace, showed the more vibrant spirit while earrings in contrasting stones underscored the fashion for mix and match.'s color combinations of mandarin garnets scattered beside green peridots made a bracelet look good enough to eat while mismatched earrings included the same stones with mother of pearl. Fresh, too, were multicolored sapphires in yellow, blue and violet for a necklace with a waterfall clip.
Flowers seem to be sprouting slightly less as jewelry for the summer season. But blooms looked joyous as earrings of pink sapphire petals set around emeralds. Showing Roman skills with both fine and semiprecious jewels, 's spin on spinels was to gather them with amethysts and turquoise."Bee my love" is a sweet as honey way for to play with its iconic buzzy bee symbol and to emphasize the modern ways this can be expressed. Creating high as well as more affordable jewelry, the jeweler is using the bee for a brooch made of blue opal.
On a more modest scale, the interlocking rings and bracelets cut in a precise pattern mimicking a bee hive offer a more approachable way of embracing 's bee identity, which goes back to the Napoleonic era.

Before submitting a thread, ensure your topic or question doesn belong in one of following threads:I made it to legend with miracle rogue last season with 90 games from rank 5 legend, so I guess I can give you some tips.
Against aggro = backstab, SI7 (this guy is the aggro killer when you have the coin), shiv, farseer, FoK, deadly poison (specially against zoo). About van cleef. usually setting up a huge van cleef early in the game against aggro wins you the game, except for shockadin or hunter because deadly shot/freezing/equality. Keeping him in your hand even with the coin might be a risk, but sometimes is worth it.
obs: Keeping Auctioneer is a risky thing if you don have any removals. Keep him at your own risk, but I would only do that if I had all the other cards to deal with the early aggression.
Against midrange/control If you think there is a chance of them rushing you down (midrange hunter, shaman,rolex submariner date replica, token druid), keep some removals/minions like backstab/poison/SI to deal with them until you get to turn 5/6. Always keep auctioneer. If you think you are facing a slow deck (priest,control warrior,ramp druid) is okay to keep things to support the auctioneer (conceal and prep), IF YOU HAVE HIM.
tech cards against some classes:
Sap is a decent keep against druid, specially ramp. If you already have auctioneer should be fine to keep it against handlock.
blade flurry is very good against shamans. Even if you are only going to use it later in the game, this is one of the most important cards in the matchup.
I can load the imgur link, but I used to run Tazdingo last season. There is a chance I will remove it now for Loatheb. Taz was great against aggro and OTK decks (like miracle and druid).
99% of the times you don keep shadowstep, coldblood and leeroy. I always keep it against ; Druid, Warrior (if I know it control), Paladin (if I know it not shockadin), Shaman,gold rolex submariner fake, Mage (again,replica used rolex submariner, if I know it not aggro), Priest, and other Rogues (Rogue is like warlock in that it is ambiguous with mulligans, you always keep it and assume they are also playing Miracle) This is because your opponent will never be flooding the board, but just playing one minion at a time, more than likely. You can keep his board clear (or close to) and still transition to turn 5 really easily, so I always keep it in those matchups. Same goes for Azure Drake, I always keep it in these matchups
For aggro you toss the slower drops and look for anti aggro cards, you wanna dig for SI, backstab, farseer, deadly poison eviscerate (evis is actually fine to throw back if the rest of your hand is garbage, but sometimes I will keep it because it relevant on turn 2 at killing a knife juggler. Not full efficiency, but hey), FoK. Against Zoo a big vancleef is almost impossible for them to deal with without chucking their whole hand/board at it, which is great for us. Deadly poison is great at keeping the board clean, and if you can combo into SI you doing great.

High West Distillery
"Well,replica rolex submariner women, it's time we unsimplify you,rolex submariner womens replica, Reverend."
The mysterious man rode in from the West, and before long the townsfolk would be looking to him to save their wretched lives. But that's what happens when you're packing whiskey, and Chris Furtado, Texas state manager for Utah based High West Distillery,rolex watches submariner fake, rose to the occasion.
On Monday, Furtado pardnered up with Dallas' Windmill Lounge to present Spaghetti + Western Night, a "pasta and pistols" event they hope to make a regular occurrence. For $10 barely a fistful of dollars, let's face it you'll score a plate of pasta and an accompanying High West spirit based cocktail to go along with the night's chosen Western flick.
This week's inaugural outing featured "High Plains Drifter," the 1973 Clint Eastwood classic with dialogue like the above and a frontierswoman disparaging Eastwood's character with the line: "From a distance you'd almost pass for a man." The hearty,replica rolex submariner for sale, homey pasta was bowtie, the cocktail a theme conscious, bitter and refreshing "Sergio" made with High West's Double Rye whiskey, Ramazotti amaro and sparkling cider. The Windmill's Charlie Papaceno even wore an apron. "This is a real Texas pasta because it's got beans in it," he said in his best Lee Van Cleef scowl.
