I'm sick and tired of changing windows all the time just to upload a file. I would like a way to do that fast right from
vim. Is there such a thing? I download the files, I edit them and then I want to upload them, all manually, but I don't want to type huge commands to do it each time.
Linux user that likes to do as much as possible from the terminal. That is... everything!

I booked a twin room and all they had left when i checked in was a double. There was no apologie or compensation offer, it was a take it or leave it attitude.
Hotel on the edge of town and tucked away down a small road. Security was good.
Choice of food was limited and seems expensive.
Badly designed rooms. Very small and very dark. The bathroom is miniscule. Overall, the hotel is not suitable for family stay. Maybe is Ok for a night on a business trip.
Exelent Hotel especially Breakfast with a wide choice of food Very good in every way
room was clean
the mattress, feeling was like you sleep in a water bed
the beds
the restaurant
Evening Meals,fair but quantity too small.
free parking, access to highway, reception and bar area look nice. we booked this hotel for one night as a stop to cut a long trip from france to belgium, ok for that purpose if you can compromise on room quality and still pay expensive rate.
room decor is poor and old. children's bed old, not stable, swinging and making iritating noise. room carpets old and look dirty. contrary to reservation confirmation interntet in room is not free, costs 4.9 eur an hour - a rip off.
It is OK for a night when travelling through France to the south or back.
Although booking.com confirmed that a fourth bed for a small kid was available, it was not and it was also not possible.
Room smelled of smoke although I booked a non-smoking room
Room itself was quiet, ie not much noise from other apartments (with exception of water tank filling loudly) and, even though we were on first floor on top of a bar and on a busy roundabout, the double glazing did its job very well. Also, there appeared to be separate lifts for different kinds of user. The shower was powerful, lovely to find in a hotel at this price. Very good value for money. Would recommend for students wanting studio flats. The staff couldn't have been more helpful.
This is not a complaint, just something that wasn't up to the standard of the rest of the hotel, and is easily rectifiable. The cleaners had obviously not been out on the balcony of our superior room as the floor was covered in cigarette ends. Otherwise, the hotel was extremely good value for money.
The location of the hotel was very convinient for me
I lost 45 min looking for the hotel, if possible put some signs around it and put exact post code for it, because I couldn't track it down neither with Garmin nor with Nokia maps
Location and frienlidness of staff
No lift. Very small bathroom. Needs a refurbishment.
squeaky bed; the door to bathroom/shower space did not close completely, so limited privacy
The staff was very helpful and everything was very clean. Also the complimentary water and tea at the reception was appreciated.
The room was quite small. We have had some problems with the bathroom pluming which, despite the good will of the staff, were not solved.
Easy to find, easy parking and excellent food just around the corner.
Nothing really bad to say, just the colors and orange plastic furniture...
The hotel is quite old. There was no hot water in the morning because, we were told, the pipe broke. Had to take a cold shower which wasn't pleasant!
de beschaafde kwaliteit
Good combination of price, location and comfort. We obtained room with balkony on same price but we didn`t ask that. Good view on street and housetops. It's easy to get center by steps or using tram. Not far from railway station and supermarket, but in silent place. Check in till 10 pm (it is difficult to find in Nancy).
Nothing special, but without any specific issue or remark.
Location is not perfect. 10 mins of walk from the train station but on the wrong side.
Here's why:
We're not the seller.
At KAYAK we don't set the prices, so it's not possible for us to guarantee what other companies are selling.
We compile tonnes of data for you
Our service lets you quickly and easily compare results from hundreds of travel sites at once. In this sense, KAYAK is a search engine and we can't guarantee prices we find.
Why aren't prices accurate 100% of the time?
Prices on airline seats, hotel rooms and car rentals can change frequently. Several people may also be trying to buy the same travel option simultaneously. As a result, you may find, on occasion, that certain prices are no longer available.

Lady Calpurnia Hartwell has always followed the rules, rules that have left her unmarried and more than a little unsatisfied. And so she's vowed to break the rules and live the life of pleasure she's been missing.
But to dance every dance, to steal a midnight kiss to do those things, Callie will need a willing partner. Someone who knows everything about rule-breaking. Someone like Gabriel St. John, the Marquess of Ralston charming and devastatingly handsome, his wicked reputation matched only by his sinful smile.
If she's not careful, she ll break the most important rule of all the one that says that pleasure-seekers should never fall hopelessly, desperately in love.

Hi there,
I run http://www.rapnews.co.uk and everythings organised perfectly, but I'm having issues as to what to do with my 'keep it live' and 'release dates' pages.
As the content is information orientated around a date, I don't feel comfortable with using a category, which will be sorted with dates etc, as it might get confusing for the visitors.
So I'm wondering of a format that I can present a record release date schedule, and a live events calender, within a page.
Are there any simple and clear calender or schedule plug ins, or anything else you can think of that might help?
highly appreciate ya time,

Breaking the Slump
Published: Thursday, May 1, 2008 at 5:24 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, May 1, 2008 at 5:24 p.m.
Have you ever watched highly-paid athletes who have struck out at the plate too many times in a row or missed the last several free throws?
If so, you may have noticed that what began as a couple of random mishaps quickly becomes a mental barrier resulting in a real slump.
Anglers can have a similar fate.
After going on repeated trips and not catching a single fish, their mind starts to get in the way of their fishing ability.
Recently, I had been in just such a slump. It had been five months since I had last felt the tug of a trout on the end of my fly line.
I had been through dry spells before, but this one was really getting to me. Granted, lifes responsibilities had cut into my trout angling time, but it wasnt like I hadnt fished hard during my limited days on the water. In fact, because I was fishing less often, it was that much more disappointing every time I ended the day catching nothing more than a couple of tree limbs.
Maybe I was just over-thinking it. It was possible that I so desperately wanted to catch a fish during my stolen moments on the water that I was just trying too hard.
The Pisgah Fly Masters tournament a few weeks back brought me up to the mountains for a long weekend to watch some of the contest, and I planned to spend some time on the water trying to break my trout drought.
Friday evening found me on the delayed-harvest waters of North Mills River, but I wasnt alone. A beautiful day brought with it anglers who filled every good looking pool on the stream. I plowed on through, trying to find a fish in unsuspecting spots, but found no takers.
The next day, after watching some of the tournament, I parked the Jeep at a pull-off along the Davidson River and stubbornly rigged up my fly rod, fearing the worst.
A few unsuccessful pools later, the daunting thought that Id never catch another trout was still echoing through my mind when my strike indicator quickly disappeared and I set the hook. Finally, a glimmer of hope!
However, I reeled in a sucker, and my pessimistic thoughts were back in full force.
So, I gave up. With my mind on autopilot and no specific goal in mind, I began to just enjoy being on the water as I continued nonchalantly casting while retracing my footsteps back to the Jeep.
Suddenly, my strike indicator again submerged, pulling my line taut. I hardly dared to hope, but yes! A nice brown trout was on the other end.
As I eased it back into the flowing current, I had to say thank you to the fish that had broken my losing streak.
I dont know if my negative thoughts had interfered with my casting, or if the fish just sensed my desperation, but for whatever reason when I simply let go, my angling slump finally came to an end.
And thats my holler for this week!

Bullet hits Lou Dobbs' home with wife nearby
Published: Thursday, October 29, 2009 at 5:04 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, October 29, 2009 at 5:04 p.m.
WANTAGE, N.J. (AP) Police in New Jersey are trying to determine who fired a bullet that struck CNN commentator Lou Dobbs' home as his wife stood nearby.
State police Sgt. Stephen Jones says Dobbs' wife and driver were outside the home Oct. 5 when they heard the gunshot. Jones says the bullet didn't penetrate the siding and fell to the ground outside.
Dobbs mentioned the bullet earlier this week on CNN and his radio show.
Dobbs says he had been receiving threatening phone calls for weeks. On his radio show, he connected the gunshot to his advocacy for a crackdown on illegal immigration and to his opponents' rhetoric.
The home is on a farm in Wantage, about 50 miles northwest of New York City.
It is small-game hunting season, but no hunters were seen in the area.

Generation Gap In Giving

For a long time, Danielle Durchslag had absolutely no interest in anything Jewish. The 25-year-old Soho resident hated Hebrew school, despised the Jewish overnight camps she was sent to and describes the trip she took to Israel when she was a teenager as "an utter disaster." Durchslag, who is an artist, is also the great-granddaughter of philanthropist Nathan Cummings, and has been an associate board member of the Nathan Cummings Foundation for the past decade. The foundation gives away about $20 million a year to groups doing work in several different areas: the arts, the environment, health and Jewish life. During her first years on the board, Durchslag focused her attention on its Arts Committee. Then, when she was 19 and in college, she went to a conference for children of wealth interested in progressive causes. Participants were asked to shout out a quality that identified them, like "meat eater," and others with that characteristic were to join their circle. Much to her own surprise, Durchslag said, she shouted out "Jewish." And to her astonishment, most of the other people in the room came into her circle. "I was amazed to see what a large percentage of that room we were, considering what a small percentage of the population we are. But there was no discourse about Jewish values, Jewish giving or Jewish identity among us," said Durchslag, who now works as an educator at the Jewish Museum in New York. "I suddenly realized I was interested in speaking to other Jews in my position but I had no way of finding them. Asking 'who here is Jewish and gives away money?' is not exactly dorm-room conversation," she said. Young philanthropists like Durchslag are of great concern to the organized Jewish community, which is grappling with the need to attract them if their rapidly aging donor base is to be replenished. Yet a surprising number of long-established Jewish organizations evince no apparent interest in seriously engaging young adults, experts say. "These are the people who have the ability to become stewards of the Jewish community in the future," said Mark Charendoff, president of the Jewish Funders Network, an organization of about 1,100 trustees and staff members of Jewish family foundations. "We want them to take on more financial responsibility, but when it comes to having decision-making authority in meaningful areas, our answer is 'You're not ready for that.' These are people with enormous authority running their own companies, making $100 million decisions at a hedge fund. Their opinions have gravity in other spheres of their life but in the Jewish community we still define young leadership engagement as the junior level of the annual campaign. That's not good enough," he said. There are a number of characteristics separating the generations, among them that younger donors often don't have the same nearly reflexive commitment to Jewish causes as their parents and grandparents. The Bronfmans provide an illustration. Stephen Bronfman, 42, has one sister and a number of first cousins, but only a few are deeply involved in Jewish causes. His father, Charles Bronfman and uncle, Edgar Bronfman, are two of the best-known Jewish philanthropists in the world. Stephen, who lives in Montreal, gives about half of his philanthropic money to Jewish causes, focusing on Montreal and Israel. His father, in contrast, focuses almost exclusively on Jewish needs, he said. There was a time when he was uninterested in Jewish giving altogether, and that has changed. "I used to say to my dad, 'You take care of the Jews, I have other things to do,'" Bronfman said in an interview. "But you mature a bit and say there's other stuff but there is also the Jews." Experts say that conventional Jewish organizations are failing to adapt to the changes. "The institutional community views engagement of the younger generation as new and more creative ways to separate them from their money, as opposed to some kind of authentic engagement, which is what the younger generation is seeking," said Charendoff. Just before Rosh HaShanah he was approached by a woman in her 20s who recently settled her father's estate and came into a "very, very large amount of money," he said. "She wants to be philanthropic, she wants to give to the right causes, but she is frustrated because everywhere she seeks guidance they say 'Just give it to us,' and that's not what she wants to do. She wants to figure out how she can make a difference and where she can put in energy," Charendoff said. Researchers from Boston College's Center on Wealth and Philanthropy project that over the course of the next four decades, $41 trillion will be passed down to children and grandchildren in the United States. No one knows just how much of that will come from or be inherited by Jews, but observers say that it is a significant sum. There is fear that these dollars, in the hands of young people, may be lost to the Jewish community, say some. One way that Jewish establishment groups are addressing the transfer of wealth "has been to ramp up the endowment campaigns as quickly as possible to lock in old money quickly, before it's inherited by future generations which will have different priorities," said Yosef Abramowitz, publisher of JPhilanthropy.com and SocialAction.com, online magazines geared toward teenagers. The idea that young adults should be taken seriously in terms of their Jewish connections is apparently a new idea to many. "It is only recently that some of us have been advocating for this missed opportunity, the 11 years on average between college graduation and marriage, when all the research in the general community shows us that identities are still being formed. We know now that it continues into the 30s, when it used to be thought to end at age 18 or 19," said Jeffrey Solomon, president of the Andrea and Charles Bronfman Philanthropies. "We have a supply-side Jewish community that has nothing for that age group. What exists after Hillel? Synagogues and JCCs don't particularly reach out to young adults," he said. "It is not a time of great welcoming." Few long-established Jewish groups have succeeded in attracting ongoing funding from young adults, experts say. Part of the problem for young donors like Durchslag is that they want to make their own mark and in a Jewish way, but have no idea of how to go about it. To address her own need for connection Durchslag, with the Bronfman foundation, co-founded Grand Street, a network for people between 18 and 28. Each year, a new class of about a dozen is invited to participate. This year is the network's fourth, and all of the Grand Street groups will gather Oct. 13-15 at a retreat in Glen Cove, L.I., for an annual exploration of shared questions. During the year, each class meets for drinks and Shabbat dinners, said Sharna Goldseker, 31, vice president of the Bronfman Philanthropies, who staffs it. Out of Grand Street has grown Slingshot, which began last year as a book and this year has continued as the second iteration of a Zagat-style guide to 50 Jewish groups that the network has deemed most innovative. They range from tiny — BINA, for Beta Israel of North America, is a group that represents Ethiopian Jews on a budget of $10,000 — to large, represented by birthright israel, which has a budget of $40 million (and which is co-founded and co-funded by Charles Bronfman, whose foundation midwifed Slingshot). When the first Slingshot guide came out, its publishers were taken aback by how many copies were requested. "We were surprised to see how this simple tool was much in demand," said Goldseker. Last year they first printed 2,000 but quickly ran out, and in the end distributed over 5,000. This year, they began with a print run of 5,000. It is being published in tandem with the creation of the Slingshot Fund, whose participants aim to donate between $350,000 and $500,000 to groups in the book. While Grand Street is proving a refuge and a launching pad for Jewish young adult philanthropists, it remains a nearly anomalous example of creative outreach to this population. While "there are a slew of organizations that do it in the universal realm, Grand Street is in a bit of a vacuum in the Jewish world," said Roger Bennett, 36, senior vice president of the Bronfman Philanthropies. "I wish it wasn't the case." "There have been good but isolated efforts, including those of several foundations across the country, but even these at most are small-scale pilot efforts. The question is how to take them and make them large-scale," said Charendoff of JFN. It remains to be seen whether long-established Jewish groups will adapt well enough to attract the donors who are now young adults. "If you had told me when I first started at the foundation that I'd be on the Jewish Life Committee, I would have laughed," said Durchslag. "I once went to a Jewish Funders Network conference and heard a speaker say 'Whenever I work with a business which blames its customers for problems, I already know that they're dead in the water.' " Among Jewish organizations, she said, "there's a lot of blaming the customer. But if anything, the customers are ready. They need a system that speaks to their needs, and where we are in our generation."

I have found two problems with this plugin:
First of all, if WordPress is being run out of a user's home directory (like what I do for testing), this plugin cannot determine the path for each of the items it is trying to compress.
<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://localhost/~eryanv/i4k/wp-content/plugins/scripts_gzip/gzip.php?css=http://localhost/;http://localhost/;http://localhost/" type="text/css" media="screen" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://localhost/~eryanv/i4k/wp-content/plugins/scripts_gzip/gzip.php?js=http://localhost/;http://localhost/;http://localhost/;http://localhost/;http://localhost/;http://localhost/;http://localhost/;http://localhost/"></script>
Second problem I found:
When it is successful and compresses the files, the background images from a given CSS file may no longer point to the correct url. If WordPress is not installed in the web server root (for instance mine is in a directory called wp, and has to be accessed through http://hostname/wp), the path translations done in the CSS files are no longer accurate.
Originally in the CSS file I had:
which was then translated into:
which is close, but does not account for the fact that it should really look like:
Other than that, I'll be excited to see where this goes.

Real Estate And Mortgage Section - REAMSShared publicly -
Story of The Grand Colonial is the title of an article I recently published to my REAMS website.

Visit Reams for a closer look!
The Reams website was created for anyone who wishes to learn more about real estate & mortgages, folks interested in investing in real estate, as well as owners of real estate property looking for a few tips and/or techniques on how to sell.

Well, I'm not going to argue that point. Maybe it will go that high. Actually, I hope you guys going long do get a nice win on this. I just know it IS going to go back down. But nobody has a crystal ball as to when exactly. So, keep your protective stops in place, and if it keeps moving up, use trailing stops.
So, i guess you sold and want us to sell so you can get in cheap.thanks buddy, but please we know what we are doing.
This stock has alot of political pressure associated with it - that is hard to factor in - IF it spikes on the open high enough - I may be out - like I said just have to see what happens - Im watching my indicators very close right now

How would I go about installing Ubuntu Server on a remote dedicated server? I am not sure whether it has pre-existing OS on it or not. Thanks!
Thanks for the question.
I would go with pxeboot, if you are going to do this often.
Here is the documentation.
If not.
I would see if the server has a Remote Management Port, or Console connection. Then get someone to burn and insert the Ubuntu CD or USB. Then connect over this to do the install.

A novel approach based on Bayesian networks for short-term traffic flow forecasting is proposed. A Bayesian network is originally used to model the causal relationship of time series of traffic flows among a chosen link and its adjacent links in a road network. Then, a Gaussian mixture model (GMM), whose parameters are estimated through competitive expectation maximization (CEM) algorithm, is applied to approximate the joint probability distribution of all nodes in the constructed Bayesian network. Finally, traffic flow forecasting of the current link is performed under the rule of minimum mean square error (MMSE). To further improve the forecasting performance, principal component analysis (PCA) is also adopted before carrying out the CEM algorithm. Experiments show that, by using a Bayesian network for short-term traffic flow forecasting, one can improve the forecasting accuracy significantly, and that the Bayesian network is an attractive forecasting method for such kinds of forecasting problems.

Pope calls for prayers as militants chase all Christians out of Iraq city
"Our brothers and sisters are persecuted, they are chased away," Pope Francis said, assuring Christians in all of Iraq and the Middle East of his "constant prayers."
"Our brothers and sisters are persecuted, they are chased away," Pope Francis said, assuring Christians in all of Iraq and the Middle East of his "constant prayers."
NCR Today: Every innocent death, Israeli or Palestinian, is one too many. The world has gotten inured to Israeli tactics of disproportionate response to acts of violence.
As Israel continued its ground offensive into the Gaza Strip, Pope Francis urged Israeli President Shimon Peres and Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas to end the spiraling conflict.
The pontiff telephoned the two leaders Friday to express "his very serious concerns" only six weeks after both joined him at the Vatican for a historic prayer meeting.
Francis said he was concerned about the "climate of growing hostility, hatred and suffering" that was claiming many victims, resulting in "a serious humanitarian emergency," the Vatican said in a statement.
Darfur United consists entirely of refugee players from a variety of camps and tribes who set aside their difference and come together for soccer.
An emergency adviser for Catholic Relief Services said many Filipinos learned from Typhoon Haiyan and willingly went to shelters before Typhoon Rammasun struck.
"People realized, 'Oh yes, we are staying in a risky area. We're staying in a tent or shelter that's not very sturdy,' " said Elizabeth Tromans, the Manila-based regional emergency adviser for Catholic Relief Services. "And I think people were quite willing to go into the safe areas that had been identified."
Civilians in Gaza used a brief cease-fire to spill onto the streets and replenish scarce supplies, some church representatives said.
The temporary end of hostilities Thursday was to facilitate moving desperately needed aid into the area as well as give those who could leave a chance to escape, said the Vatican's Fides missionary news agency.
Three foreign Sisters of the Institute of the Incarnate Word were to leave Gaza after Israeli missiles destroyed a home very close to Holy Family Church, the territory's only Catholic parish, the agency said Thursday.
The leaders of Britain's faith communities have united to warn Parliament against the "grave error" of legalizing assisted suicide.
Cardinal Vincent Nichols of Westminster and Anglican Archbishop Justin Welby of Canterbury joined 21 other of the most senior Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Hindu, Sikh, Buddhist, Zoroastrian and Jain faith leaders to protest the Assisted Dying Bill.
Global Sisters Report: Children in Zimbabwe orphaned by AIDS too often assume roles as caregivers and heads of households at young ages, work sisters help them prepare for.
The situation in hospitals in the Gaza Strip is dire, and Palestinians are saying that medical supplies will soon run out.
While the violence escalates in Israel and Gaza, a movement is taking hold that unites Jews, Muslims and others in a campaign for peace.
On Tuesday, a daylong fast is planned as part of a public effort to show unity in the fight against war and violence in the region.
Using the Twitter hashtag #HungryforPeace, the cause started in Israel and gained strength in England, promoted by Yachad, a U.K.-based pro-Israel, pro-peace group. Last weekend, it was announced in temples, mosques and churches in the U.S.

Hi All,
After a hard drive failure and replacement this morning, all of my WordPress installs are "missing" their categories.
The categories are in the SQL DB, but all posts are listed as 'uncategorized'.
Under "Categories" in the admin... the categories are "noted"
eg: 533 items pages 1-27 etc
but no categories are visible in the list.
I assume it is a taxonomy/relationship error.. but do not know how to fix it at this stage.
Any help appreciated..

An early morning grass fire in the Albers Road area south of Oakdale on Wednesday was connected to a power outage that left several thousand Pacific Gas & Electric customers in the city in the dark.
In an environmentally-friendly and cost-saving move, City of Oakdale employees could soon be ridding greener thanks to a rebate program offered through the San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District. The Oakdale Police Department is considering purchasing one or more electric scooters for short-distance trips within the city to avoid driving gas powered vehicles.
In a move likely to frustrate some local residents, Oakdale City Council members will not be discussing a lease agreement for the installation of a 70-foot cell phone tower at their Jan. 17 meeting as previously anticipated. The discussion was pushed to a later meeting, officials said, because of the longer than normal agenda for Jan. 17.
Unseasonably dry weather so far this winter is leaving the area in an unsettled condition.
Upgrades and repairs to the Oakdale Wastewater Treatment Plant are finally complete, and Oakdale City Council members toured the completed facility on Monday, Jan. 9. The tour was considered a special meeting of the Oakdale City Council, but the council took no action during the session.
The Oakdale Chamber of Commerce has awarded Bill Dyer, a former Oakdale High School teacher, the former familiar face behind Community Sharing, and an overall volunteer extraordinaire the honor of Lifetime Achiever for his years of humble service with various causes, clubs, and organizations.
The Oakdale Irrigation District's Tuesday, Jan. 17 meeting agenda will contain an item related a possible "winter" irrigation, said OID General Manager Steve Knell. He said that OID has had a number of inquiries about having an irrigation rotation due to the lack of rainfall but that the decision is up to the board of directors.
Modesto Area Drug Traffickers Sentenced to Lengthy Prison Terms
Oakdale City Council will hold a special meeting on Monday, Jan. 9 at the Oakdale Wastewater Treatment Plant. Council and members of the public will take a tour of the facility to view progress on plant upgrades.
A swift-running river, bad news for schools in terms of state funding, and an increase in gang activity all found their way on to the front pages of The Leader during the latter half of 2011. Following are some of the top stories, July to December.
Jaden Mayfield was doing what probably any two-year-old boy would do one afternoon when he found something shiny …he put it in his mouth. Little did he or his family know that his age-appropriate curiosity would turn into a long hospital stay.
The New Year brings fresh opportunity and challenges for most people but it also brings new laws for everyone to abide by. More than 800 laws will go into effect. Some laws directly affect your day-to-day, others not so much, but it's a good idea to know what's legal and what's not. Here is a small list of some of the more talked-about laws that will go into effect.
Although the list posted at the Sears Holding Company website is still not completely updated, the Oakdale Kmart and Sears locations seem to have escaped the chopping block as they are not among the 80 stores slated for closure throughout the country.
Oakdale city officials are scrambling to action after the California Supreme Court upheld the state's right to dismantle redevelopment agencies across the state in a Dec. 29 decision. The Supreme Court also ruled that an alternate strategy, which some were calling "ransom payments," was unconstitutional. This decision leaves the City of Oakdale scrambling to meet a four-month deadline to ensure repayment of around $1.5 million owed by the RDA to city held funds.
Several Orange Blossom 4-H club members, in contributed photo at side, made approximately 110 scarves in December to contribute to the Oakdale Police Department's senior outreach program coordinated by CAPS (Citizens Auxiliary Police Services) member Lupe Aguilera.

It is a sad day when the most anticipated new Christmas movie of the year is a sequel to one of the worst Christmas movies ever made. But Bad Santa has its fans and today they cheer the release of this new trailer: Billy Bob Thornton is back to reprise his role as the Santa nobody wants to take their kid to — and this time he brings his mother, played in this film by Kathy Bates. In this film Willie and his mother — who's just as mean and foul-mouthed as her son — try to scam a charity headed by Diane. Although Diane looks prim and proper on the outside, she apparently "has a thing for shady lowlifesRead more

Five Weird American Christmas Traditions the World Misunderstands
There is plenty to Christmas around the world that people consider weird. Krampus, for example, is strange. The popularity of Kentucky Fried Chicken in Japan on Christmas Eve is another weird one. But when it comes to Christmas no place is known for weird better than America. While Christmas wasn't born in the United States it sure has taken it over. And that dismays much of the world that still considers Christmas a sacred and religious festival. The secular growth of Christmas in America is what lends the odd elements of it that people around the world consider so strange. Americans who read this might not think a thing of these items below. But to the world these five thingsRead more
The Christmas Candy Bomber
The epilogue to World War II was the massive effort made to recover war-torn Europe. For months and even years following the war times were lean as millions scrambled to recover lives. U.S. President Harry Truman led a massive effort – dubbed The Marshall Plan – to bring relief to the starving, homeless and unemployed in Europe. Part of that effort was the Berlin Airlift of 1948, a round-the-clock operation of landing planes with relief supplies in Berlin. This is where the story of the Christmas Candy Bomber begins. Colonel Gail S. Halvorsen, of Provo, Utah, piloted a C-54 aircraft, typical of those used during the Berlin airlift. One day while waiting for his just-landed aircraft to be unloaded heRead more
History of the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree
John D. Rockefeller, Jr. grew up with Christmas firmly a part of his family's culture. An 1885 school essay speaks of Christmas being celebrated with family and sleigh rides. But Christmas was never on his mind years later as he envisioned the "city within a city" that would become Rockefeller Center. In 1928, about a year before the famed market crash of October 1929, Rockefeller leased land in the heart of New York City intending to build a showcase development that would have the Metropolitan Opera as its centerpiece. But with the market crash the Opera backed out and Rockefeller hesitated due to his own losses of the times. But after giving it lots of thought Rockefeller re-drew his plansRead more
Tips to Prepare for Christmas Card Sending
It is our tradition to announce and open our annual Christmas card exchange during our Christmas-in-July festivities each year. In advance of that we thought it best to share with you some tips for preparing for the sending and receiving of approximately 100 cards from around the world as part of the exchange. Many of us have done this now for over a decade. In a time where the world has seen a decline in the practice of sending cards we have merrily clung to the tradition for many reasons. For many of us the joy of receiving this mail throughout the season far outweighs the efforts to participate. We take great joy in holding in our hands something thatRead more
For the Love of The Christmas Song
Christmas purists are funny people. Earlier this week we released a new podcast featuring the best selling songs of Christmas. We thought folks would be interested in this list. But no…..they seem to be a little upset by it, if our email is any indication. The most feedback we have received has not been about the list itself but rather those songs that DIDN'T make the list. And the #1 song not on the list that has some Christmas music fans dismayed is The Christmas Song, by Nat King Cole. Well, we've decided to issue a new episode of The Merry Little Podcast to address these concerns, which you can listen to below. Trust me, we explain it all. AndRead more
Five Reasons Why Santa Does Not Do Christmas in July
He is perhaps the most well-known man in town. In his bright red suit folks can see him coming from a mile away. His big white beard is a head turner. In his little town he is not only the man who takes children on his knee but he embodies the spirit of the season like no other as he wanders the streets in the hours before he takes to his big chair in his village house in the town square every evening. He is Santa Claus, of course. Every Thanksgiving Day he emerges from his nearly year-long absence to highlight the end of the Thanksgiving Day parade – the symbol to all that the Christmas season has begun. ButRead more
