Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve is an annual television special that airs every New Year's Eve on ABC. The special broadcasts from New York City's Times Square, and prominently features coverage of its annual ball drop event, along with live and pre-recorded musical performances by popular acts from Times Square and Hollywood, respectively. Despite being in a direct rivalry with Guy Lombardo's popular and long-running New Year's Eve specials on CBS when it first premiered, New Year's Rockin' Eve became ingrained in pop culture, and has remained the most popular of the New Year's specials broadcast on the United States' major television networks. Its 2012 edition peaked at 22.6 million home viewers – not including viewers watching from public locations which are not measured by Nielsen.[1][2]
Its host, creator, and namesake was entertainer Dick Clark, who hosted coverage of New Year's Eve celebrations in Times Square for ABC (through both Rockin' Eve and ABC's special coverage of millennium celebrations) annually from 1974 to 2004 – when the complications of a stroke less than a month prior prevented him from participating in the 2005 edition, resulting in Regis Philbin substituting as the host. While Clark returned from 2006 to 2012, his role on Rockin' Eve became more limited due to Clark's dysarthria (a lingering effect from the stroke), as Ryan Seacrest became the main on-air host from Times Square. The death of Dick Clark on April 18, 2012 left Seacrest as the sole host of the special beginning with its 2012–13 edition.
New Year's Rockin' Eve is primarily broadcast from Times Square in New York City, providing coverage of the New Year's Eve festivities held there, culminating with the long-running ball drop leading to midnight and the New Year. The special also features pre-recorded segments featuring performances by popular musicians; since the 2006–07 edition, these concert segments have been presented from a studio in Los Angeles by Fergie of The Black Eyed Peas. Since the 2005–06 edition, New Year's Rockin' Eve has also featured live performances from a stage in Times Square. Since 2000–01's edition, coverage has begun with an hour-long primetime show airing at 10:00 p.m. ET/PT. Following late local programming, the main New Year's Rockin' Eve broadcast begins at 11:35 p.m. ET/PT (outside the Eastern and Pacific time zones, this portion of the broadcast can be tape delayed by affiliates so the countdown corresponds to local time). After the conclusion of festivities from Times Square, the special continues into Part 2 (usually running later into the night, as far as 3:00 a.m. ET/PT), which consists of pre-recorded performances.[3][4][5] Since the 2012 edition, the primetime hour of New Year's Rockin' Eve has itself been preceded by music retrospective specials, primarily featuring archived performances from the Dick Clark Productions library.[6][2]
Since 2005, Ryan Seacrest has hosted the live show outside in Times Square (along with a celebrity correspondent providing additional reports from attendees). From his return and until his death, Dick Clark hosted a limited number of segments from Times Square Studios approaching midnight, but still conducted his traditional countdown, and continued on with the tradition of kissing his wife, Kari Wigton, at midnight.[7][2]
Before Rockin' Eve[edit]
Prior to the premiere of New Year's Rockin' Eve, the most well-known New Year's Eve program was the annual big band remote of bandleader Guy Lombardo and his Royal Canadians, broadcast from the ballroom of the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel. Guy Lombardo hosted 48 straight New Year's Eve broadcasts on CBS until his death in 1977, beginning on radio in 1928 (and for a period, splitting with NBC Radio following midnight ET), and on CBS Television from 1956 to 1976 (which also featured coverage of the ball drop in Times Square). Lombardo was also well known for his band's performance of the song "Auld Lang Syne" at midnight, which helped make the standard synonymous with the New Year's holiday in North America.[8][9][10]
Conception, premiere[edit]
At the time, Dick Clark was well-known to viewers as the host of American Bandstand, a music series produced from the studios of Philadelphia television station WFIL-TV (now WPVI-TV) and broadcast by ABC (which itself aired a New Year's Eve special on December 31, 1959).[11]
In the 1970s, Clark felt that Guy Lombardo's New Year's specials were outdated and did not appeal well to younger viewers; he believed that only older viewers would be interested in big band music accompanied by "people dancing cheek-to-jowl in their tuxedos and funny hats."[10] In response, he decided to produce a more youthful New Year's Eve special of his own to compete. Clark's new program would be known as New Year's Rockin' Eve, a name chosen to signify the major contrast between his special and the more formal atmosphere of Guy Lombardo's special. The first edition, Three Dog Night's New Year's Rockin' Eve 1973, was aired by NBC on December 31, 1972 and was hosted by the members of the rock band Three Dog Night. The special featured pre-recorded musical performances from the ballroom of the Queen Mary in Long Beach, California by Blood, Sweat & Tears, Helen Reddy, Al Green, and Three Dog Night. Clark served as a reporter from Times Square for live coverage of the ball drop and arrival of 1973.[10][11][12][13] The second special, New Year's Rockin' Eve 1974, also on NBC, was hosted by comedian George Carlin and featured musical performances by The Pointer Sisters, Billy Preston, Linda Ronstadt and Tower of Power – once again pre-recorded on the Queen Mary.[14] Beginning with the 1975 edition, the program moved to ABC and Clark assumed hosting duties.[2][11][15]
Rise in popularity[edit]
After Guy Lombardo's death in 1977, CBS and the Royal Canadians attempted to continue their New Year's Eve broadcasts from the Waldorf-Astoria for 1977–78. However, the effects of Lombardo's absence led to a decline in viewership, allowing New Year's Rockin' Eve to overtake the Royal Canadians in viewership in only its fifth year on-air. The threat of the new special also prompted CBS to drop the Royal Canadians entirely in 1979 in favor of a new special, Happy New Year, America, which premiered for New Year's Eve 1979–80. With its recent success, Clark began hoping that New Year's Rockin' Eve would become a television tradition of its own, lamenting that "Lombardo would always win [in New York] because of the Waldorf and 35 years of tradition, but we finally got it wrested."[16] Clark's hopes soon became reality, as New Year's Rockin' Eve had displaced Guy Lombardo as the most popular and most-watched New Year's Eve special on American television in the years following.[2][11][15]
The 1980 edition was co-hosted by Erin Moran and John Schneider of Happy Days and The Dukes of Hazzard respectively, and continued with Clark's goal to showcase acts that represented the previous year by featuring Barry Manilow, Blondie, Chic, The Oak Ridge Boys, and the Village People as performers.[16] The 1988 edition was co-hosted by China Beach cast members Marg Helgenberger and Brian Wimmer from the Cocoanut Grove club at the Ambassador Hotel.[17] Mark Curry and Holly Robinson of the ABC sitcom Hangin' with Mr. Cooper co-hosted for 1993–94, with segments at Walt Disney World featuring performances by acts such as Brooks and Dunn and Kiss, along with the marriage of two California firefighters, Laura Turpin and Bob Hutnyan.[18]
The 1996–97 edition was co-hosted by Stacey Dash and Donald Faison of the ABC comedy series Clueless, and included performances by Jann Arden, Kiss, "Weird Al" Yankovic, The Presidents of the United States of America, and The Tony Rich Project.[19] This edition also marked the 25th anniversary of New Year's Rockin' Eve; Clark marked this accomplishment by discussing the greatest challenges he had faced hosting the special; including being unable to hear his director over the loud crowds of Times Square, harsh weather conditions, and a year where the emcee had to contend with a group of 30 nude attendees in the background. Clark aimed to continue hosting the special through the year 2000.[20] Ultimately, Clark hosted the program through 2004.[2][11][15]
The popularity of New Year's Rockin' Eve also resulted in Clark making appearances on other television series to reference his role. In a Y2K-themed segment of The Simpsons' Halloween special "Treehouse of Horror X" entitled "Life's a Glitch, Then You Die", Clark made a cameo appearance hosting a New Year's Eve event in Springfield. The Y2K bug caused the emcee to melt, exposing him as a robot.[21] In an interview following the episode's airing with its writer, Ron Hauge, Clark said that the episode gave the "biggest response" he had ever gotten from anything he had ever done.[22] Clark made a further appearance during the pilot episode of fellow Matt Groening series Futurama, "Space Pilot 3000", where Clark's head (as preserved in a jar) is seen hosting a version of New Year's Rockin' Eve leading into the year 3000.[23] The special's legacy was also recognized in the 1994 film Forrest Gump, where footage of Clark from the first edition of New Year's Rockin' Eve is seen on a television at a bar during a scene of the film taking place on New Year's Eve.[24]
ABC 2000 Today, 2001 primetime expansion[edit]
New Year's Rockin' Eve was temporarily placed on hiatus for New Year's Eve 1999–2000. Instead, Clark participated in ABC News's day-long telecast, ABC 2000 Today, which as a part of an international broadcast consortium, televised festivities from around the world celebrating the arrival of the year 2000. Clark joined host Peter Jennings and ABC News reporter Jack Ford as correspondents for the festivities from Times Square. Clark took on a similar role on ABC 2000 Today as he did on New Year's Rockin' Eve, including conducting his traditional countdown alongside Ford at midnight on the East Coast. However, unlike New Year's Rockin' Eve, festivities from Times Square were also broadcast live across the entire country instead of tape-delayed for the West Coast, since the special broadcast midnight festivities in other cities and time zones for the remainder of the night, as they had done throughout the day.[25]
Clark, Ford, and Jennings were among a total of more than 1,000 members of the ABC News division that were part of the broadcast. They were all under the direction of ABC's Roger Goodman.[26] The ABC 2000 Today telecast overall also received a Peabody Award.[27] Reflecting on the event, Clark was enthusiastic about his participation, feeling that New Year's Eve 2000 was one of the biggest nights he had ever spent in Times Square.[3]
New Year's Rockin' Eve returned to ABC the following New Year's Eve for the arrival of 2001. The 2000–01 edition also introduced a new primetime hour at 10:00 p.m. ET/PT, which featured additional segments and music performances to lead into the main program. Clark felt positive about the program's expansion into primetime – believing that viewers, no matter where they were, wanted to know what was going on in Times Square on New Year's Eve. Clark was joined by Fox & Friends anchor Steve Doocy, and Michelle Madison as reporters in Times Square. Comedian Wayne Brady hosted concert segments in Hollywood, which included performances by Lonestar, Boyz II Men, 98 Degrees, Baha Men, and Third Eye Blind among others.[3]
The 2002 edition of New Year's Rockin' Eve, its 30th edition, featured pre-recorded performances from tours by Aerosmith, Destiny's Child, and Elton John during the primetime hour, followed by studio segments (again hosted by Wayne Brady) featuring performances by Blink-182, Bush, Busta Rhymes, Jessica Simpson, LFO, The O'Jays, and Pink. The primetime hour of New Year's Rockin' Eve 2002 was also preceded by ABC 2002, a follow-up to the ABC 2000 special, hosted by Peter Jennings from the Rose Center for Earth and Space. The two-hour special featured a "meaningful and reflective" view on New Year's celebrations from around the world, and also included performances by Arlo Guthrie, Sting, and U2.[28] Clark personally felt that 2002, since it was the first in the wake of the September 11 attacks, was the most "nerve-racking" New Year's Eve he had ever experienced.[11]
Dick Clark's stroke, effects on Rockin' Eve[edit]
On December 6, 2004, it was reported that Clark had been hospitalized after suffering from a minor stroke. Despite Clark indicating his participation in New Year's Rockin' Eve 2005 in a prepared statement, reports soon surfaced that the stroke may have been serious enough to prevent him from hosting at all.[29] It was officially announced on December 14 that Dick Clark would not be hosting, and that Regis Philbin would fill in for Clark. In a statement, Clark said that he was thankful that Philbin was able to quickly step in on short notice to host the show, and hoped that he would do a good job. Philbin was optimistic about his role, considering it "[the] best temp job ever."[15]
Various personalities paid tribute to Clark throughout the night on New Year's Eve; the New Year's Rockin' Eve broadcast featured special celebrity messages for Clark, and revelers in Times Square were seen with signs saluting Clark. During CNN's coverage, revelers in Times Square told CNN's Jason Carroll that Philbin was "all right" filling in for Clark (but still had Anderson Cooper and Carroll too).[30] Mayor Michael Bloomberg also spoke with Philbin on Clark's absence during the show, noting that "it isn't that we don't like Regis, but we want [Clark] back next year."[31] Philbin's hosting received mixed reviews: Richard Huff of the New York Daily News noted that Philbin's hosting was "stiff" at first, and suggested that he would have performed better if he had a co-host to interact with like his daytime talk show. In conclusion, he considered Philbin's performance to be "suitable – although not spectacular."[31] Virginia Heffernan of The New York Times believed that Philbin was feeling "surprisingly nervous" in his role at host, and felt that "rowdy crowds" (which Philbin chose to avoid by staying in the studio) and the success of Rod Stewart's career (which Philbin pounced on to promote his new album, "When You're Smiling") were bothering him.[32]
Dick Clark's return[edit]
In August 2005, ABC announced that Dick Clark would return to the show for its 2006 edition, marking his first television appearance since the stroke. For that broadcast, it was also announced Clark would also be joined by a new co-host, media personality and American Idol host Ryan Seacrest. Seacrest himself had hosted a competing New Year's Eve special for Fox the year prior.[33][34] In an interview with People Magazine in December 2005, Seacrest revealed that while Clark had not completely recovered from the stroke, and that his speech was not exactly like how it was beforehand, Clark had made great progress since the original diagnosis.[35] As a part of a long-term deal with Dick Clark Productions, Seacrest also became an executive producer for the special.[33]
Alongside pre-recorded performances from Hollywood hosted by actress and pop singer Hilary Duff, the 2006 edition also featured a live performance by Mariah Carey directly inside Times Square – the first such performance in the show's history. Live performances from Times Square became a regular feature during future editions of New Year's Rockin' Eve.[7][5][36]
During the program, Clark made limited on-air appearances, but still conducted his traditional countdown, and also recollected on his recent experiences:
" | Last year I had a stroke. It left me in bad shape. I had to teach myself how to walk and talk again. It's been a long, hard fight. My speech is not perfect but I'm getting there.[37] | " |
Public curiosity over Clark's condition and his return to television helped Dick Clark's 'New Year's Rockin' Eve 2006 draw in over 20 million viewers throughout the night, and score a 7.1 audience share among the key demographic of 18–49 year-olds.[38] Reaction to Clark's appearance was mixed. While some TV critics (including Tom Shales of The Washington Post, in an interview with the CBS Radio Network) felt he was not in good enough shape to do the broadcast, stroke survivors and many of Clark's fans praised the emcee for being a role model for people dealing with post-stroke recovery.[39] The New York Times' Brian Stelter compared Seacrest's new role on Rockin' Eve to being like a "traffic cop", "tossing to bands and correspondents and to Mr. Clark for the countdown." [2]
Ryan Seacrest becomes co-host[edit]
Following the 2006 edition, Dick Clark Productions announced that Seacrest had agreed to remain a co-host for future editions of New Year's Rockin' Eve.[38] As he was still afflicted with speech impediments that resulted from his stroke, Clark continued to only make limited appearances during the broadcast (which included short segments around midnight, and his traditional countdown to the New Year at midnight), while Seacrest hosted the majority of the program outside in Times Square.[2]
The 2008 edition featured live performances from Times Square by Carrie Underwood, Miley Cyrus, and the Jonas Brothers. Fergie hosted concert segments from Hollywood, which also featured performances by Akon, Natasha Bedingfield, Sean Kingston, OneRepublic, Plain White T's, Taylor Swift and will.i.am.[40] Seacrest's increased role as host was recognized beginning on the 2009 edition, where the special was officially re-titled Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve with Ryan Seacrest.[2] It featured live performances by the Jonas Brothers, Taylor Swift, and Lionel Richie, with Kellie Pickler serving as a correspondent. Hollywood segments featured performances by Fall Out Boy, Jesse McCartney, Natasha Bedingfield, Ne-Yo, The Pussycat Dolls, Solange, Robin Thicke and will.i.am.[41]
For its 2010 edition, performances in Times Square included Daughtry and Jennifer Lopez (who infamously wore a dark-colored catsuit for her performance to mixed reviews),[42] while Good Morning America's Melissa Rycroft served as a correspondent. Fergie hosted concert segments on-location from Las Vegas, Nevada, featuring performances by her group The Black Eyed Peas, Colbie Caillat, Robin Thicke, Keri Hilson, Selena Gomez, Justin Bieber, David Guetta, and Orianthi.[43] American Idol season 8 runner-up Adam Lambert was also reportedly scheduled to perform, but was dropped from both Rockin' Eve and a scheduled appearance on fellow ABC program Jimmy Kimmel Live! in response to his controversial performance at the American Music Awards. Neither ABC nor Dick Clark Productions ever confirmed whether or not Lambert had been booked at all, however.[44]
The 2011 edition featured live performances by Kesha and Taio Cruz, and actress Jenny McCarthy served as a reporter from Times Square. Fergie reprised her role as host for the pre-recorded Hollywood segments,[45] which included performances by Avril Lavigne (who performed the world premiere of her newest single "What The Hell"),[46] Natasha Bedingfield (who performed her latest single "Strip Me"), Jennifer Hudson, Ne-Yo, Train, Mike Posner, Willow Smith, Jason Derülo, Far East Movement, La Roux, Kesha, Drake, and closing the show, the supergroup NKOTBSB (the combined Backstreet Boys and New Kids on the Block).[45] Viewership for the 2011 edition peaked at around 19 million viewers.[2]
40th anniversary[edit]
Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve with Ryan Seacrest 2012, was once again hosted by Seacrest, with Clark co-hosting what would become his final appearance on the program. Fergie co-hosted for the sixth consecutive year for the pre-taped Hollywood segments, while comedian Jenny McCarthy returned for her second year corresponding from Times Square.[47] Musical guests in Times Square included Lady Gaga (who also joined Mayor Michael Bloomberg in activating the ball drop), Justin Bieber, Pitbull and Hot Chelle Rae.[47] Performers in the Hollywood segments included Taio Cruz, Nicki Minaj, Blink-182, Florence + the Machine, LMFAO, Gym Class Heroes, OneRepublic, The Band Perry, will.i.am, Christina Perri,[47] and Robin Thicke.[2] To celebrate the 40th anniversary of the first edition of New Year's Rockin' Eve, the primetime portion of the show was preceded by a two-hour retrospective special focusing on memorable music performances from the show's 40-year history.[2]
New Year's Rockin' Eve 2012 brought ABC's highest ratings on New Year's Eve since ABC 2000 Today; an average 8.4 million viewers watched the 40th anniversary retrospective, the primetime hour brought in 12.9 million viewers, and the first hour of the main broadcast peaked at 22.6 million viewers. These numbers exclude viewership from locations such as bars and New Year's Eve parties, as they are not counted in the Nielsen ratings.[1]
Death of Dick Clark; following editions[edit]
On April 18, 2012, Dick Clark died after suffering a heart attack following surgery to fix an enlarged prostate.[48][49] Following Clark's death, ABC declined to comment on future New Year's coverage, nor did Dick Clark Productions comment on the future of the franchise.[48]
In August 2012, ABC confirmed via a press release that New Year's Rockin' Eve would return for its 2012–13 edition.[50] Ryan Seacrest, Jenny McCarthy and Fergie reprised their roles as host, Times Square reporter and Hollywood host, respectively. Carly Rae Jepsen, Neon Trees, Psy with MC Hammer, and Taylor Swift performed live in Times Square, while the Hollywood segments of the show included performances by Brandy, Flo Rida, Ellie Goulding, Jason Aldean, Justin Bieber, Karmin, OneRepublic, Pitbull and The Wanted.[51][52][53] The primetime hour of the program was preceded by a two-hour tribute special, New Year's Rockin' Eve Celebrates Dick Clark.[54] Clark's legacy was also recognized by the Times Square Alliance, organizers of the ball drop: a triangular Waterford Crystal panel engraved with Dick Clark's name was presented to his widow Kari Wigton, and installed on the ball.[5][55]
On October 23, 2013, Dick Clark Productions confirmed the 2013–14 edition of New Year's Rockin' Eve, and announced that Ryan Seacrest had signed a multi-year deal of unspecified length to continue serving as host and executive producer of the special. Seacrest stated that he would "forever be both sentimental and grateful" about his involvement in the special, and that he was "excited to work together to create new traditions and fun moments on the show that only live television can deliver." Fellow producer Allen Shapiro credited Seacrest's involvement in New Year's Rockin' Eve for its "extended and expanded" success.[56][57] Fergie and McCarthy reprised their roles once again, and the primetime portion of the program was preceded by a two-hour special, New Year's Rockin' Eve Presents the 30 Greatest Women in Music. The Hollywood segments included performances by Ariana Grande, Capital Cities, Daughtry, Fall Out Boy, The Fray, Enrique Iglesias, Jason Derülo, Jennifer Hudson, and Robin Thicke.[6][58] Blondie, Icona Pop, Macklemore and Ryan Lewis, and Miley Cyrus performed in Times Square,[59][60] and the special also featured a performance by Billy Joel, broadcast live from Barclays Center.[61] In Canada, the 2013–14 edition was simulcast for first time by City, replacing its coverage of concert festivities at Toronto's Nathan Phillips Square (the network continued to sponsor the festivities, however).[62][63] While viewership was down by 5%, New Year's Rockin' Eve was still the highest-rated among the New Year's specials.[64]
On February 7, 2014, ABC reached a long-term deal with Dick Clark Productions to maintain both New Year's Rockin Eve and the American Music Awards on the network through the end of 2023.[65]

Tags are a red herring here. I'm asking SE to predict and monitor what sorts of text I respond to, because that's the ground truth of my interests. |

Recommend questions to read/answer
I am suggesting the standard web-equivalent of mind-reading. The points in your answer are all about other peoples' votes and tags. How about looking at the actual text of questions and answers one reads, votes on, and responds to. I shouldn't have to give SO an exhaustive list of tags (that will often be incomplete or missing on many questions, especially right as they're posted) for it to find things that I would react to positively. I'm suggesting a way to drive more traffic, build a more engaged community, and help me learn more along the way? |

How to up vote more than once to an answer (suggestion for new feature)
Actually, I believe that accepting an answer is implicitly scored as an upvote for it as well. It's 15 points regardless of an explicit upvote. |

Search suggestions for (un)interesting tags should filter those already selected
With the possibility of merging tags (as I understand it), this would seem to be a moot point. |
Oct 21 |
comment |
It doesn't matter what the question is, there's only one answer
But if an old question now has a better answer, it should appear there. Otherwise, people searching the web will come across the question, and think the accepted answer is still right. |

Pagination links for result pages too far down on last page
If this is "by design", then the design is problematic. I'm not complaining that some answers are 'lonely', I'm complaining that the page links are way the hell out of the way on a mostly-empty last page of results, regardless of the size of a page. Also, I observed this in Firefox 3.0, not some Webkit-based browser or Opera. |

On DVD
Latest On The Human Centipede
I have been a true fan of horror films for more than 3 decades. This series of films are a true masterpiece because it is truly horror. I can't remeber when I've seem such imagery on the screen, in the first series the gore level is somewhat low but the evilness of Dr. Heiter is completely of the charts. You cant help but to feel sorry for his victums. Its clear that the doctor is the evilist man
This movie defines "NEW" horror. All the squeamish.....do *********! Dr. Heiter takes manipulation, creepiness, and sheer terror to a new level. There is nothing more "shocking" in this movie that you would not see in "Hostel" or "Saw"! I read all the comments...if it's so
My real vote would be "MAYBE" It took me a long time to work up the nerve to see this movie. The plot is truely disgusting beyond belief. Two female tourists and one japanese man are kidnapped by a demented surgeon somewhere in Germany. They are drugged, and wake up in his basement laboritory. The surgeon, who became famous specializing in the separation
This movie is the worst,bad acting,bad script,!I hate this movie! Sickening ,degrading,a waste of time and money! There are many more good B grade movies of the horror genere out there. This one gets an FFFFFFFF! That's too good for it.Plain disgusting!
Dr. Heiter has to be the creepiest character I've watched in a long time. The looks, speech and mannerisms he gave in this movie was really impressive. The plot was somewhat predictable after the initial shock in what was happening. Monsters and aliens don't scare me, but the human dark side can really freak me out. Makes you wonder if this stuff

In February, the US Supreme Court [official website] denied [JURIST report] Ohio's request to proceed its execution of Charles Lorraine, a 45-year-old man who was convicted in 1986 of killing an elderly couple, because the state deviates too often from its own lethal injection standards. In November of last year, the Chief Justice of the Ohio Supreme Court, Maureen O'Connor [official profile] opened the first meeting of the state's death panel review committee which was formed [JURIST reports] in September to provide "guidance on the current laws on the subject, the practices in other jurisdictions, the data, the costs, and many other aspects associated with the death penalty."

- Heat oven to 140C/fan 120C/gas 1. Tip the sugar into a shallow dish and warm in the oven for about 10 mins.
- Meanwhile, hull the strawberries and crush in a large bowl with a potato masher or fork. Stir in the warm sugar and leave for about 4 hrs, at room temperature, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has dissolved,
- Mix in the pectin, stirring well, then add 3 tbsp lemon juice. Ladle the fruit crush into 5-6 small clean freezerproof containers, or jars. Cover loosely with cling film and leave at room temperature for about 3 hrs then check to see if the mixture is setting. If it still appears quite runny, tip the pots back into the bowl and mix in another tbsp of lemon juice, then repeat the process with the pots. Leave for at least 24 hrs at room temperature, by which time the mixture should have reached a soft set. Cover tightly with lids and freeze until required. Freezes for up to 8 months – keep in the fridge after defrosting. The jam may go cloudy after freezing – but when thawed, just stir and it will go clear again.
Recipe from Good Food magazine, April 2004
Comments, questions and tips
well I made it last night and it's all set and it's just gorgeous!! I am so clever!!!
just a couple of things when I make it again I won't squish the strawberries quite so much so there are more chunks and it's a wee bit sweet but I can live with that
the only other things is the colour, it's not quite the virbrant red that shop bought jam is, perhaps that's because I forgot to put in the additives!!!
now to get that bread maker out for the home made bread
well I had a quick look at this and thought, too much trouble with waiting until it sets etc (I used to watch my mother making jam and it was a real faff) then I read it properly and thought, even I could do this, so am off to buy the strawbs tomorrow and give it a go, having said that the English (or if very lucky Scottish) strawberries are just sooooo yummy at the moment it's almost a shame to make jam
better to just smother them in cream and indulge!!!

Defeat Diabetes
Foundation 150 153rd Ave, Suite 300 Madeira Beach, FL 33708 |
Insufficient Sleep Can Cause an Increase A1c by 1.9 Percentage-PointsPosted: Thursday, September 28, 2006Short or poor quality sleep is associated with reduced control of blood-sugar levels in African Americans with diabetes, report researchers. The finding suggests that one inexpensive way to improve the health of patients with type 2 diabetes might be to improve the duration and quality of their sleep. "Sleep is modifiable," said Kristen Knutson, research associate (assistant professor) in the department of health studies at the University of Chicago and first author of the paper. "We've known for some time that skimping on sleep can impair glucose tolerance even for healthy people. Now we have evidence connecting chronic partial sleep deprivation and reduced blood-sugar control in patients with diabetes." "Although we can't be certain whether sleep loss makes diabetes worse or the diabetes interferes with sleep, it only makes sense for everyone, but especially patients with diabetes, to give themselves the opportunity to get enough sleep," Knutson said. The study focused on 161 African-American patients being treated at the University of Chicago Hospitals for type 2 diabetes. The researchers asked participants how much sleep they thought they needed at night and how much sleep they managed to get on weeknights and weekends. They also assessed the quality of their sleep using a standard 19-item questionnaire, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). To assess blood sugar control they measured glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c).The researchers found that, on average, the 161 diabetes patients got very little sleep and had poor glucose control. Mean sleep duration was six hours a night. Only six percent reported getting eight hours of sleep on weeknights and only 22 percent reported getting at least seven hours. Seventy-one percent had poor sleep quality. The median HbA1c score was 8.3 percent. Many patients with diabetes have painful complications that can interfere with sleep. Even after the researchers excluded 39 patients who reported such pain, however, two out of three of the remaining 122 patients reported poor quality sleep. The average HbA1c among those patients was almost as high: 8.2 percent. Insufficient or poor quality sleep was closely associated with higher HbA1c results. For patients with no complications of their diabetes, a three-hour "perceived sleep debt"—the difference between how much sleep they felt they needed and how much they think they got—was associated with a 1.1 percentage-point increase in HbA1c levels, for example from 7.5 percent up to 8.6 percent. For patients with at least one complication of diabetes—such as nerve pain, kidney damage or coronary artery disease—decreased sleep quality appeared to be more important. An increase of five points (out of 21) on the PSQI was associated with a 1.9 percentage-point increase in HbA1c, for example from 8.7 percent up to 10.6 percent. "The magnitude of these effects," the authors note, "is comparable to those of widely used oral antidiabetic agents." A long series of laboratory and epidemiologic studies has suggested that cutting back on sleep has a harmful effect on glucose control, insulin secretion and metabolism in ways that might increase diabetes risk, said Eve Van Cauter, professor of medicine at the University of Chicago and senior author of the study. The current study asks the question: is glucose control in subjects who already have diabetes adversely affected by too little sleep or poor sleep? "Our findings suggest, at least in this study population, that short or poor sleep is associated with decreased blood-sugar control in patients who already have diabetes," she said. "The growing tendency to burn the candle at both ends may be a significant contributor to the current epidemic of diabetes. One way to slow down this epidemic may be to avoid building a chronic sleep debt." Source: Diabetes In Control: Archives of Internal Medicine Sept. 18, 2006., University of Chicago |

Brooke Knows Best Premiere Date, Synopsis
by Matt Richenthal at .VH1 has announced that Brooke Hogan's ridiculous spin-off to Hogan Knows Best, Brooke Knows Best, will premiere on July 13 .
Here's a portion of the press release about the series:
"No longer an innocent teenager [her parents are divorced and her brother is in jail], Brooke learns what growing up is really about. For the first time, Brooke is learning how to deal with the ins and outs of daily life, new relationships, of her family's recent struggles, as well as managing her career and finances without Mom and Dad."
The cast of Brooke Knows Best will consist of Brooke, and her two roommates, Ashley and Glenn.
We'd love to know: Does anyone think Brooke Hogan really knows best? About... anything?!?

I don't think anyone should say anything negative about anything until they have tried it (seen it, in this case) for themselves. I look forward to seeing at least 4-5 episodes of "Brooke Knows Best" before I even being to think of judging her or her show in a positive or negative way.

- Regulation of nitrogen fixation in heterocyst-forming cyanobacteria
Regulation of nitrogen fixation in heterocyst-forming cyanobacteria
Trends in Plant Science, Volume 3, Issue 9, 1 September 1998, Pages 346-351
Herbert Böhme
AbstractSome cyanobacteria are able to reduce atmospheric dinitrogen to ammonia—a process where oxygen evolved by photosynthetic activity in the same cell is detrimental to nitrogen fixation. Strategies to avoid oxygen range from temporal separation of nitrogen fixation and oxygen evolution (in unicellular and filamentous, non-heterocystous strains) to spatial separation and cellular differentiation into nitrogen fixing heterocysts (in filamentous cyanobacteria). Recent research has begun to clarify the genes involved in nitrogen fixation, the mechanisms that regulate the expression of proteins involved in the assimilation of nitrogen from different sources and the way in which the cell is able to sense its nitrogen status.

Cyanobacterial heterocysts: terminal pores proposed as sites of gas exchange
Trends in Microbiology, Volume 15, Issue 8, 1 August 2007, Pages 340-349
Anthony E. Walsby
AbstractIn many filamentous cyanobacteria, oxygenic photosynthesis is restricted to vegetative cells, whereas N2 fixation is confined to microoxic heterocysts. The heterocyst has an envelope that provides a barrier to gas exchange: N2 and O2 diffuse into heterocysts at similar rates, which ensures that concentrations of N2 are high enough to saturate N2 fixation while respiration maintains O2 at concentrations low enough to prevent nitrogenase inactivation. I propose that the main gas-diffusion pathway is through the terminal pores that connect heterocysts with vegetative cells. Transmembrane proteins would make the narrow pores permeable enough and they might provide a means of regulating the rate of gas exchange, increasing it by day, when N2 fixation is most active, and decreasing it at night, minimizing O2 entry. Comparisons are made with stomata, which regulate gas exchange in plants.

Studying the Signaling Role of 2-Oxoglutaric Acid Using Analogs that Mimic the Ketone and Ketal Forms of 2-Oxoglutaric Acid
Chemistry & Biology, Volume 13, Issue 8, 1 August 2006, Pages 849-856
Han Chen, Sophie Laurent, Sylvie Bédu, Fabio Ziarelli, Hai-li Chen, Yong Cheng, Cheng-Cai Zhang and Ling Peng
Summary2-Oxoglutaric acid (2-OG), a Krebs cycle intermediate, is a signaling molecule in many organisms. To determine which form of 2-OG, the ketone or the ketal form, is responsible for its signaling function, we have synthesized and characterized various 2-OG analogs. Only 2-methylenepentanedioic acid (2-MPA), which resembles closely the ketone form of 2-OG, is able to elicit cell responses in the cyanobacterium Anabaena by inducing nitrogen-fixing cells called heterocysts. None of the analogs mimicking the ketal form of 2-OG are able to induce heterocysts because none of them are able to interact with NtcA, a 2-OG sensor. NtcA interacts with 2-MPA and 2-OG in a similar manner, and it is necessary for heterocyst differentiation induced by 2-MPA. Therefore, it is primarily the ketone form that is responsible for the signaling role of 2-OG in Anabaena.

Heterocyst differentiation: from single mutants to global approaches

There are several instances of cellular differentiation in prokaryotes, including the formation of spores in Bacillus, the fruiting bodies of Myxococcus, and the stalked cells of Caulobacter. The vegetative cells of particular filamentous cyanobacteria can differentiate into three different cell types: N2-fixing heterocysts, spore-like akinetes, and motile hormogonia. Heterocysts are crucial for the ability of these photosynthetic bacteria to fix N2 because they keep the oxygen-labile nitrogenase away from the photosynthetically produced O2. Heterocysts are morphologically and functionally distinct from vegetative cells in the filament. Their differentiation relies on sophisticated intercellular communication and is tightly regulated. Analyzed by classical mutagenesis for decades, heterocyst differentiation is now being approached by large-scale methodologies, leading to the identification of new elements that might be important in the process.

in the side border, it says to skip a sc, and do 3 dc in the next 3 sc, then go back to the skipped sc and do another dc.
"2nd row: Ch 3 (counts as dc). *Miss
next sc. 1 dc in each of next 3 sc. 1 dc
in missed sc. Rep from * to last sc.
1 dc in last sc. Turn"
this sounds like it wants me to go backward then forward again. makes no sense, and when i tried it, it looked horrible. i tried doing that until where it says to go back and i did a ch 1 instead and then just went onto the next set of 3 dc in sc. that doesnt look right either. neither my mom nor my aunt can figure this out.
I read it like the the Cross Stitch instructions

The way I was able to make this work is when I went back to dc in the skipped (missed) sc, I inserted my hook into this missed stitch from the back instead of from the front. This creates a dc which angles across the front of the three dc's you made previously. Be sure to keep this crossed dc loose to minimize pulling in your border.

Last year at the Conference on Current Pagan Studies I spoke about PTSD, what it was like coming home and what many of us are dealing with. While my dealings with some of experiences in Iraq may be rough and troublesome, the hardest part was coming home and returning to civilian life.
After everything that I had been through, and strangely enough, everything I have become accustom to, I had a much more difficult time integrating back into "normal" life and relating to "normal" people (civilians). I soon discovered that most people had equal difficulty relating to me. There were many awkward silences because they didn't know what or what not say, and neither did I.
It's been nine years since I came home with sand in my boots. I've slowly become more comfertable, I have learned to talk openly and people have learned to talk back. Having experienced it myself, I tend to notice it and I continue to see this type social tension in our community. But this awkward social tension is not limited to our returning warriors, the same type of social anxiety also exists between our communities and the incoming Pagan parolees I like to call "Outmates."

I read that if I link 29 times with the keyword "watches" as anchor text I am penalized by google.
Yes. But it's not a penalty. It will just filter you down in results. We really need to rethink the over use of the term penalty. A penalty is something that happens when you do something wrong -- a 10 minute misconduct penalty for unsportsman-like conduct. It is a predefined timeline you are not going to escape from no matter how remorseful you are about what you did wrong. Whereas a lowering in results through filtering is really not that you did something wrong but that you are not doing something right. So, it's just a punishment imposed by an over-bearing parent that says "you can come out of your room when you understand what you did is wrong" That was how I punished my children when they were young. I left it up to them to realize their mistakes and extricate themselves. (Of course I'd quiz them when they tried to walk out 5 minutes later!).
DO NOT link your keyword on every page. But do use it in an appropriate natural balance and sometimes link descriptive text next to the keyword that is in the same sentence, preferably no more than 2 or 3 words away.
To borrow taberstruths example:
Shiny watches, watch bands, diamond watches, watch repair, the most common watches, watches that stand out -- and do leave many instances of the word unlinked -- no more than about 2 links per 750 words -- your results may vary. Just reread what you've written, if it feels forced and unnatural then it will also be interpreted as such by goog's new shiny beast.

Your newspaper reports of daily arrests refute the information provided the Wood County Commission on Oct. 21, 2012, for the newspaper reports thousands of arrests on a yearly basis, whereas the law enforcement officers reporting to the commissioners stated arrests are decreasing.
Commissioners in Wood and Washington counties must rein in the "blue flame" officers who, with a display of a little kindness, could nip in the bud many, many frivolous arrests. Yes, kindly officers with a "soft voice may turn away wrath," as the Bible states.
In 1948, I was one of a dozen Fort Monmouth, N.J., soldiers arrested by a gung-ho officer who had us hauled into a New York City area police station. We had broken a city code infraction. At the station was a convivial, mature Irish police captain, a prototype of the Irish beat cop often featured in Hollywood's "Bowery Boys," who with a twinkle in his eyes, set us free. The captain knew the ramifications that would ensue if the arrest of 12 soldiers were effected.
Many of the area arrests are selective, involving the addicted, whereas a recent NBC report indicate a high percentage of every high school student body knows strong drug activity in their respective schools.
There must be some "Irish cops" syndrome in the area law enforcement commander, for they seldom cause arrests in schools, colleges, lodges, bars and restaurants; the arrests are in "high crime" areas. Just think of the ramification if arrests were made large-scale in a weekend party held at a high school or a college after a ball game.
The federal drug laws are bankrupting state criminal justice systems, causing a number of states to place on the ballot a possible easement of the federal strictures upon drugs.
Some "Irish cop," as it were, in Washington, must come to his senses regarding federal drug laws, even consideration of legalization. At the present time, law enforcement and courts are only holding back the flood with a finger in the dike.

Lehman, E-Trade Execs Offer Global Outlook
Liquidity is the one word that characterizes Lehman Brother's booming private equity business, says Tom Russo, vice chairman of the investment giant. But he also says the bubble can burst at anytime.
"Inevitably, something will go wrong. The kinds of things that you worry about, and it is hard to quantify, are the geopolitical issues, anything in that area could really have a real dramatic effect," Russo said in a "Squawk Box" interview with CNBC's Maria Bartiromo in Davos, Switzerland. "I'm much more worried about things like avian flu, things that you don't know how to deal with."
And globalization is affecting the financial services sector in many ways.
E-Trade Financial CEO Mitch Caplan told Bartiromo that the company aims to see 20% to 30% of total revenue from its international business. It recently acquired a 10% stake in an Indian financial services firm and is looking to expand in emerging markets, especially in Asia.
"There's this creation of a new middle class," Caplan said. "They are building wealth and trying to figure out what to do as they build the wealth."
"They're much less speculative," Caplan added. "Savings rates are higher. And as they begin to think about ways in which they want to invest, you'll see a real focus on mutual funds and products other than pure equities trading."


text: The advisory proceedings [materials], which began in December [JURIST report], included arguments from 29 additional countries, including the five member-states of the UN Security Council [official website], debating whether Kosovo's unilaterally proclaimed secession complied with international law. In an effort to further the legitimacy of its independence, Kosovo began operations of its own judicial system in 2009. In March of that year, more than 100 Serbian judges, prosecutors and legal professionals prevented the opening [JURIST report] of the first EU-backed trial in Kosovo by protesting in front of the Mitrovica court house. A panel of three judges had been set to preside over a criminal case involving two Serbian defendants. As Serbia and Kosovo's Serbian population have refused to accept Kosovo's independence, the demonstration was intended to bar the EU from holding trial [B92 report] in Kosovo except under UN laws. The trial court was established by EU Rule of Law Mission in Kosovo (EULEX) [official website], an EU mission designed to guide Kosovo toward independence in accordance with the Rule of Law.
