Brian Larsen, the musician also known as "Twilight's Moon," obtained a permanent restraining order Monday, March 28, 2005 against a stalker who broke into his Maryland home and threatened to kill the young artist.Larsen, just one of a long line of celebrities who have had chronic issues with stalkers in the last year, obtained a temporary restraining order on Monday, March 21, 2005, the evening after a stalker broke into his Maryland home. At 9p.m. on Sunday, March 20, 2005, a 43 year-old woman, identified by police as "Laura," broke into Brian Larsen's residence in Maryland and stormed around his house looking for Larsen's bedroom. The woman, a drug addict, claimed that she needed to speak with Larsen in person. Although Larsen's telephone number and address were unpublished, the stalker claimed to have obtained them by tracing his whereabouts, following him and hiring an investigator.
Starting on February 26, the woman began calling Larsen on his private cellular phone and leaving threatening messages, including personal information about his activities that day and threatening that she would "regret what she would do next." After the woman entered his home, Larsen immediately called 9-1-1 and members of the musician's family demanded that she leave. The woman continued threatening Larsen and began crying hysterically, threatening to kill him. She remained in his home until police arrived nearly twenty minutes later.Upon their arrival, the woman was detained, and described by police as "clearly intoxicated and inebriated, but possessing a valid drivers' license." She was immediately forced to leave the area. The following morning, upon advice from his attorney, Larsen obtained a temporary restraining order against the woman in a Maryland District Court.At 10:45a.m. on Monday, March 28, 2005, a judge, after hearing nearly an hour of testimony from Brian Larsen, including transcripts of telephone messages threatening Larsen's life, issued a permanent restraining order against the woman.
In addition, the judge ordered that she not come within 1,000 yards of Larsen, his home, or any location where he may appear, both in public and private. The judge further demanded that the stalker pay all court fees and attend counseling. The 43 year-old woman was also served with a warrant for her arrest after failing to appear for the trial. "This is the cost of having a public persona," Brian Larsen said in a March 29 statement. "I'm just thankful that the authorities responded as quickly and with as much force as they could so as to protect my safety and privacy."Brian Larsen is a musician best known for his work with the million-selling band "The All-American Rejects," for which he received two gold records and a Record Industry Association of America "Platinum Record" award in March, 2005.
On his own, Larsen has released nine albums under the name "Twilight's Moon," and has received a gold record for a 2002 single titled "Electric." Larsen is also known for having worked with members of The Cure, Fleetwood Mac, and famed independent musician Lisa Loeb. The restraining order granted against his stalker comes the day before the release of Larsen's new single, "In The Fall," his first release under the Twilight's Moon name in more than a year and a half..
Store Your Outdoor Furnishings to Make Them Last
In many parts of North America, the end of "porch season" has arrived. Whether you're clearing out for some oncoming bad weather, closing up the cottage for the season, beating the vandals on devil's night, or just retreating to your nest for the winter, you'll want to store away all of your outdoor items with maximum care. Dirt particles can settle deep into fabric and wood fibers and making tiny cuts that hasten their deterioration. Untreated soiled spots can become irremovable stains. Moisture can breed mold, mildew and rot.
Rust will spread, eating through metal. So proper storage will not only make your spring set-up more pleasant, it will prolong the life of your furnishings and d?cor. The first step is to clean and dry all pieces.
- Remove any loose dirt and dust from all pieces. For cushions and wicker furniture, use a vacuum or a soft-bristle brush.
Then attack any specific problems.
- If there are mildew spots from a humid summer, remove them with a bleach...

The noise from the crowd rises and falls in a steady drone while flashing lights and other cheap tricks add to the confusion.

Outdoor Patio Furniture: Exploring the Benefits of Teak
Of the many types of materials that are available for the construction of outdoor furniture, teak is often overlooked. This beautiful wood - of tropical origin - adds character and elegance to your outdoor design through a blending of nature and man-made elements which provide an outstanding aesthetic presentation to any yard.
Teak (technically known as tectona grandis) has been proven to be the best wood for use in the great outdoors. As a result of its high rubber content, this wood has a natural resistance to heat, water and frost without the benefit of any treatment or special coating.
Teak has a Natural Resistance to the Outdoors
In addition, its natural properties render it termite resistant due to the high content of oil that it possesses. The durability of teak is another benefit that makes it very popular with consumers, as well as the way in which it wears. Over time, weathering causes the teak to develop a silvery...
