ABC has started promoting Jimmy Kimmel Live's big move to 11:35/10:35c, and tonight will lean on a network titan to help sell that message. Barbara Walters has taped a spot highlighting Kimmel's time slot promotion, which takes place next month.
Walters' promo will air during the 90-minute special Barbara Walters Presents: The 10 Most Fascinating People of 2012, airing Tuesday night at 9:30/8:30c.
Man of the Year: Jimmy Kimmel on the Emmys, Oprah and Going Head-to-Head With Leno and Letterman
The Walters promo is also notable because her special is produced by ABC News. Kimmel's move back a half hour (starting January 8) is displacing ABC News' Nightline, which shifts to 12:35/11:35c. Perhaps a sign of no hard feelings?
Here's the short Walters promo - featuring a cameo by Jimmy Kimmel Live's Guillermo Rodriguez - that will air tonight.

Also, y'all... instead of whining on here about how you regret buying stuff due to bugs etc. - rather submit bug reports at Humble Bundle's support section. And post solutions if you have them.
Also, y'all... instead of whining on here about how you regret buying stuff due to bugs etc. - rather submit bug reports at Humble Bundle's support section. And post solutions if you have them.
You know, theres a thing called QA that commercial development houses use to make sure the biggest problems are fixed before they sell their games. Customers arent supposed to do the QA for free, no, sorry, they arent supposed to _pay_ to do the QA Ill whine if I want, and I would have liked to read somewhere _before_ I bought the bundle that the games dont work, so I dont think that this whining is useless.
Any of the games are open source?
It will be open source if they reach a target milestone income?
I don't know how much good this will do, but I started a petition to protest the inclusion of a non-native game in a Humble Indie Bundle:
Please add your signature. It is worded in a very constructive way and it seemed like the most civil way to get our point across.
Signed, however, I'm not against using wine, as long as instaling the game its just "I agree next next next", and not digging through documentation on how to install it, or getting stupid errors like this "shader error".
At a Reddit AMA, someone asked of Tim Schafer: "How did the Humble Indie Bundles influence your decisions to port your games to Linux? What was the porting process like?"
The response -
"TimOfLegend: Linux was like a party that sounded fun we were afraid to go to because we didn't think we'd know anybody there, and the HiB guys were like your socially fearless friend who says, "Don't worry, we'll go together." And when he gets to your house he says, "Is that what you're wearing?" and you say, "uh..." and he says, "Don't worry. I know a guy." And he lends you a cool leather jacket and you go to the party and when you walk in there's a needle scratch and everybody turns to look at you and your friend gives a cool nod and then everybody goes back to the party. So kind of like a John Hughes film. Hope that helps explain things. That's about as technical as I can go. I just hope I don't accidentally knock over a beer can pyramid that some tough guys are building.
Oh and also, if you want to be cool at the party, stay away from wine. (haha! Linux joke!)"

10 Ways to Save Money on Your Wedding
Tweet |
Wedding season is in full swing! If you're planning a wedding, you know the costs can really add up. The good news is, you can still have an amazing and beautiful wedding without breaking the bank!
{10 Easy Way to Save Money on Your Wedding}
1. Plan in Season: Always plan around whatever flowers are in season, this simple tip could save you hundreds of dollars. If you like only a specific flower, you may just want to move your wedding day to the season that flower corresponds with in order to save money. Simple ask your florist when is the best time of the year for your favorite flower and add up the savings!
You could even skip the florist. For my best friend's wedding, we bought the flowers at Sam's. We called and ordered what was in season at that time and literally saved about $500 by doing so. We arranged simple bouquets for the girls in the wedding and the decorations as well. The bridal bouquet you can make yourself (check out Pinterest for ideas) or even if you do pay someone to do it, you can do the rest of the flowers yourself and save money in that area. Check out this article we posted and learn how to make the beautiful bouquet below!
2.. Decorate Your Cake: Order a plain wedding cake from a local grocery store. I ordered a friend's cake for less than $100 (it was still beautiful as a plain cake). It was three tiered and I picked it up at the grocery store myself. Then, we decorated with rose petals bought from Sam's. It was GORGEOUS! For my cake, we had a plain cake that was then covered in fruit that was in season. All sorts of berries covered my cake and all were bought at a local farmer's market. My friend would have paid $300 and we made it for about $100 and my cake would have been the same as well. These are two ideas that are so simple yet will save you mega cash.
Visit PickYourOwn.org and find farms near you where you can pick your own berries and sometimes get them free!
3. Get Your Prom On: It is prom season right now, this means you can score great deals on dresses for the bridesmaids and possibly the bride! Even better, wait until late May or early June and scope out the leftovers for 50% off deals.
4. Student Styled: Want to save mega money on your hairstyle? Get a beauty school student to do your hair and the hair of your wedding party! Wait...don't be scared, hear me out...Call the school first and ask to speak to one of the instructors. Tell him/her that you are calling to find a great student who could do not only your wedding day hair but the hair of your wedding party too (if needed). Ask the instructor to recommend a student, make sure that student would be available on your big day too.
Then, go in for a test run. Be sure to bring pictures if you have any and try it out! Remember, the instructors supervise the students so it is not as scary as you might think. Plus, our local beauty college charges only $15! You can't beat that! And, remember to get your nails done while you are there!
5. The Location: First, ask your church, many times you can get it at a discounted rate or free just for being a member. If that does not work out, call around and ask the rates of nearby churches. Many churches have built in decorating so you won't have to bring much into the space to make it beautiful. In Oklahoma, you can find beautiful barns and outdoor areas to have your wedding at also...yes, I just said barn. Ask around and see if someone would let you use their backyard of course, you also have to make sure you have an indoor backup just in case weather strikes.
Using a chapel is easy but you have to find out what is included. Many times you are paying for the place only then once you add in the flowers, tables, chairs, unity candles, etc, you might be paying more than it is actually worth. Check out local parks or out of the norm locations, you might find a hidden treasure!
6. The Date: Choose a not-so-intense time of the year to get married. Get out of the busy season, you'll pay the price for that! Also, pick any day other than Saturday. Saturday is the most costly day to get married. Switch it up to a Sunday afternoon or even a Friday night and you could save a bundle.
7. The Time: Having a wedding at 6pm means you'll be serving dinner so be sure to shoot for a time more mid-day to avoid having to pay for everyone's meals. A 3pm wedding means you can easily serve light appetizers and such or even just wedding cake and punch. Weddings during lunch or dinner will increase your prices dramatically so just be careful to avoid those times. Also with food, call around to local restaurants and even fast food locations to get pricing.
Also, you can make your own food for your wedding and save a ton! Make your own fruit trays, small sandwiches and punch and you'll be good to go!
8. Decorations: Balloons are the cheapest decorations on the face of the planet. Balloons & bubbles are two of my favorite things. Fill the reception area with balloons and everyone will see it, then you can use less expensive decorations around the room. Get creative with the centerpieces and use daisies or even carnations, you don't have to use flowers either, you could decorate with chocolate kisses or vases of jelly beans! If you want to be mega frugal, plant the flowers now and have your wedding while they are in bloom. Then, you can use the flowers you planted in your wedding decorations.
9. Invites: There are two simple ways to do this. The first is to make your own at home which is easily done if you own Photoshop or if you search your way through Pinterest. The second is to think outside the box. Order photo invitations, you can get a set of 20 photo cards on Walgreens.com for only $12.99! That means, you can use a super cute picture of you and your future spouse and customize your own invites. It's a little funky and out of the norm so your guests will remember it!
10. What about the honeymoon? Be sure too keep your eyes peeled on Groupon Getaways and Living Social Escapes. They post TONS of vacations and getaways priced at 50% off or more and they change weekly so you can wait for your favorite getaway to appear or buy one today!
If you think smart and get outside the box, your big day does not have to cost you a fortune. Keep in mind though, it won't be free so start saving money now and plan ahead for great deals!

Monmouth County NJ cams look pretty choppy and unorganized--worth the drive?
Again with this BS???........all post like this should be immediately destroyed to never return again....
it seems like every time there a swell over knee high some kook puts this thread up.
Really assh*le? I was just looking for some insite from someone who paddled out this AM before I make the trek. I swear its and even split of d*ck heads as there are cool people who surf: I've never seen this in any other sport.
If you were all real surfers (myself included) we wouldnt be screwing around with these crappy east coast bumps anyway.
does that make us fake surfers?
small,no shape.hope it builds as forecast later
I think most people are tired of this type of thread - any thread involving what thickness of suit, or if a day is going to be worth a drive. If you've gotta ask, its probably not (to you anyway). Just my opinion though
Just don't even look at the thread if you guys don't like it. The guy's just looking for some help.
It was perfect this morning, you missed out if you didnt get any
haha, here we go again!

Teaholic! Currently loving flavored blacks, greens, whites, green rooibos blends, straight blacks and greens, and have a long-standing adoration for herbals/medicinals. Dessert teas top my list along with anything cocoa-y.
I own an obscene amount of tea, and am always happy to share. Having said that, I'm traveling indefinitely (currently in France, was in Ireland and England prior, next up Belgium) so my stash will sit and wait for me, as I send back tea to explore more when I get home again.
In addition to loving tea, I'm a dating columnist, single mom, nerd, and avid knitter. I read way too much, type even more, and spend my 'free' time exploring, playing board games, reading, hiking, hanging with friends.
Allergies: Strawberries and all grains. I'm having a mild allergic reaction to both lavender and some roses in tea, and thus I'm avoiding these for now as well. I also avoid sugar and Splenda where possible.

Past performance does not guarantee future results. The information pertaining to Morningstar contained herein: (1) is proprietary to Morningstar; (2) may not be copied or distributed; and (3) is not warranted to be accurate, complete or timely. Neither Morningstar nor its content providers are responsible for any damages or losses arising from any use of this information. For each fund with at least a three-year history, Morningstar calculates a Morningstar RatingTM based on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return measure that accounts for a variation in a Fund's monthly performance (including the effects of sales charges, loads and redemption fees) placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The top 10% of funds in each category receive 5 stars, the next 22.5% receive 4 stars, the next 35% receive 3 stars, the next 22.5% receive 2 stars and the bottom 10% receive 1 star. The Overall Morningstar Rating for a fund is derived from a weighted average of the performance figures associated with its three-, five- and ten-year (if applicable) Morningstar Rating metrics. Morningstar Ratings are for the share classes cited only; other classes may have different performance characteristics and different Morningstar ratings. Most of the funds above offer four classes of shares, each with a different combination of sales charges, ongoing fees and other features. Any mutual fund using Morningstar extended performance, represented by hollow stars, would be considered an estimate based on the performance of the fund's oldest share class and adjusted for fees. © 2012 Morningstar, Inc. All Rights Reserved. Customized performance does not reflect the full effect of the front-end or back-end sales charges which for Comstock Cap Value Fund A Fund is 5.75%. Quarterly (Standardized) performance reflects the full effect of the front-end sales charge. Other Period Performance does not reflect the full effect of the front-end or back-end sales charges. Please consult your financial advisor for prospectus and for more information on mutual fund sales charges. (1) Maximum Sales Charge for Class A shares is a percentage of the initial investment and may be reduced based on the size of your investment. Class B and C shares have a contingent deferred sales charge when you redeem your shares depending on your holding period. Please see the Fund's Prospectus or contact your Adviser for a complete description of the applicable sales charge. (2) Gross Expense Ratio is the expenses of the Fund reflected as a percentage of the Fund's average daily net assets and do not include any voluntary or contractual fee waivers or expense limitations as described in the Fund Prospectus. (3) Net Expense Ratio is the expenses of the Fund including any voluntary or contractual fee waivers or expense limitations as a percentage of the Fund's average daily net assets. Where applicable, please see the Fund's Prospectus or contact your Adviser for a complete description of the fee waiver or expense limitation, the effective date and the expiration date.
Inception Date: October 10, 1985 Returns represent past performance and do not guarantee future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than the peformance data quoted. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so, upon redemption, shares may be worth more or less than their original cost. To obtain the most recent month end performance information and prospectus, please call 800-GABELLI or visit www.gabelli.com
The inception date of the Fund was October 10, 1985. The Class A Shares' net asset values are used to calculate performance for the periods prior to the issuance of Class AAA Shares on December 8, 2008 and Class C Shares on August 22, 2001. The actual performance for Class C Shares would have been lower due to the additional expenses associated with these classes of shares. Performance for periods of one year or less are not annualized. The Fund imposes a 2% redemption fee on shares sold or exchanged in seven days or less after the date of purchase.
The Fund's share price will fluctuate with changes in the market value of the Fund's portfolio securities. Stocks are subject to market, economic and business risks that cause their prices to fluctuate. When you sell Fund shares, they may be worth less than what you paid for them. Consequently, you can lose money by investing in the Fund.
This Fund utilizes short selling and derivatives. Short selling of securities and use of derivatives pose special risks and may not be suitable for certain investors. Short selling is the sale of a borrowed security and losses are realized if a price of a security increases between the date the security is sold and the date the Fund replaces it. Derivatives may be riskier than other types of investments because they may respond more to changes in economic conditions than other investments.

Closure and Post-Closure Care for Hazardous Waste Treatment, Storage, and Disposal Facilities (TSDFs)
When a hazardous waste management unit stops receiving waste at the end of its active life, it must be cleaned up, closed, and monitored and maintained in accordance with the RCRA closure and post-closure care requirements. All hazardous waste management units and the treatment, storage, and disposal facilities (TSDFs) at which they are located are subject to the closure and post-closure care requirements found at 40 CFR Part 264/265, Subpart G Closure and Post-Closure (Part 264 applies to permitted facilities and Part 265 applies to facilities in operation before these rules became effective, referred to as "interim status facilities"). The various types of hazardous waste management units (e.g., containers, tanks, landfills, waste piles) are also subject to unit specific closure requirements found in Subparts I through X.
For more information, see:
At treatment, storage, and disposal facilities (TSDFs) were multiple hazardous waste management units are in operation, one unit may cease operation while the remaining units continue operating. This is known as partial closure. The closed units, or inactive portion of the facility are subject to all applicable closure standards. Final closure occurs when all hazardous waste management units cease operation and close according to the regulations.
When closing units or facilities, two approaches are possible clean closure or closure with the waste in place:
- In clean closure, all wastes are removed from the unit and all equipment, structures, and surrounding soils are decontaminated or removed. This approach is required for containers, tanks, waste piles, incinerators, drip pads, and containment buildings. Tanks, waste piles, drip pads, and containment buildings that cannot remove all waste and contamination are considered to be landfills and are forced to comply with the landfill closure requirements. Surface impoundments may also choose to clean close or to close with the waste in place.
- Closing with the waste in place, sometimes referred to as "closure as a landfill," is the required closure method for landfills, land treatment units, and any other hazardous waste management unit that can not meet the clean closure requirements. As mentioned previously, a surface impoundment may choose this method of closure.
Closure Plans
All TSDFs are required to prepare and submit written closure plans. A permitted facility submits this plan as part of its permit application. Once the plan is approved by the permitting agency, it becomes part of the facility's operating permit. Interim status facilities must have written closure plans within six months of becoming subject to the closure regulations.
All closure plans must include:
- A description of how each hazardous waste management unit will be closed.
- A description of how final closure of the facility will be achieved.
- An estimate of the maximum amount of hazardous waste kept on site during the facility's operating life.
- A detailed description of closure methods, including waste removal and site decontamination.
- A description of any other required steps, such as groundwater monitoring and leachate management.
- A schedule of closure dates, including closure dates for each unit and the entire facility.
Closure Timetables
The regulations specify a strict time line for completing closure. This process actually begins before the final shipment of waste is received by a unit or facility with a notification of intent to close. Facilities with landfills, surface impoundments, land treatment units, and waste piles are required to notify the EPA Regional Administrator 60 days prior to the date on which they intend to begin partial or final closure. Facilities with containers, tanks, incinerators, and/or boilers and industrial furnaces must make the notification 45 days in advance.
After a unit receives its last shipment of hazardous waste, it has 30 days to commence closure operations. Within 90 days of receipt of the last shipment, all waste must be removed (if clean closing) or disposed on site (if closing with waste in place). All closure operations must be completed within 180 days of receiving the final waste shipment. In some cases, it may be possible for the facility to receive extensions on the 90- and 180-day deadlines from the EPA Regional Administrator.
After closure operations are complete, the facility has 60 days to certify closure completion by submitting a written certification via registered mail to the EPA Regional Administrator. This certification must be signed by an independent, registered, professional engineer. At the same time (i.e., within 60 days of completing closure), a survey plat indicating the location and dimensions of the closed hazardous waste management unit(s) or facility must be submitted to the EPA Regional Administrator or local zoning authority.
Delay of Closure
Some facilities may be able to delay final closure and continue to receive nonhazardous waste after receipt of the final shipment of hazardous waste. This option is only available to landfills, surface impoundments, and land treatment units. Only units with sufficient excess capacity that receive permission from the EPA Regional Administrator may delay closure.
Post-Closure Care
Post-closure care is required for land disposal units that leave waste in place upon closure (i.e., landfills, land treatment units, surface impoundments, any other hazardous waste management unit that cannot achieve the clean closure standards). These sites must monitor and maintain liners, final covers, leachate collection and removal systems, leak detection systems, and gas collection systems to protect the surrounding environment and population from releases of hazardous constituents. The standard post-closure care period is 30 years, but this can be shortened or extended on a case-by-case basis by the permitting authority (i.e., the EPA Region or the authorized state regulatory agency).
All units and facilities required to provide post-closure care are subject to the general post-closure requirements found at 40 CFR Parts 264/265.116 through 120. Each unit is also subject to unit specific post-closure care requirements found in 40 CFR Part 264/265, Subparts K (Surface Impoundments), L (Waste Piles), M (Land Treatment), N (Landfills), and X (Miscellaneous Units).
All facilities required to provide post-closure care need to obtain a post-closure care permit. In applying for a permit, the facility must complete and submit a post-closure care plan. This plan includes:
- A description of the planned groundwater monitoring program.
- A description of planned maintenance activities for the waste containment systems (e.g., liners, final covers, leachate management systems).
- Contact information during the required post-closure care period.
Once the post-closure care period ends, the facility owner/operator must provide (via registered mail) a certification of post-closure care completion to the EPA Regional Administrator. This certification is due within 60 days of completing post-closure care and must be signed by the facility owner/operator and an independent, registered professional engineer.

gleaning from other comments, i realize it's china becoming more 'global' and getting an enlarged heart. the flicking tongue is looking for more food. fatty.
With all the right interpretations... this is well Dramatized but, Highly Exaggerated!!!
Plain simple read: the "old configuration" of the world as we know it is effectively gone, swallowed up by something we aren't quite sure how to describe yet, but instinctively sense is dark and slippery and potentially related to greed. And it's not just a geopolitical shift, but a true physical world shift (what with the polar caps shrinking alarmingly).
The more complicated take: This may be overreading, but the meridian half-ring that used to hold the globe kind of reminds me of the crescent moon of Islam (although it faces the wrong way) and perhaps a bit also of the arc of small stars on China's flag... in both cases, the big star is missing. If one should take this 'reading' and stretch it out just that bit further, perhaps the Arab world and China have kind of been absorbed into this whole other, greater monster -- and the proximity of the symbols of serpent and the world always remind me of the Orouboros -- a monster that's as twisted as an uncoiled dollar sign and as murky as oil. Bah, this take is totally off. It's probably not worth reading, sorry.
Does the snake represent China or the year ahead? MarioF, below, thinks it's the year. More I think about it, so do I. After all, China's inside the snake too. Perhaps the artist is sounding a ominous note about the year to come, not about China. Maybe he'll deign to tell us?? Please.
I think it's about the year ahead, but maybe thee ambiguity is the point of this catoon:
Is it that China can hardly lead alone the whole world to have some GDP growth in the year 2013?
No, IMO, it can't be that. China's either inside the 'snake' of the bad year that is to come, or it is the snake - gotta be one or the other. I don't see any plausible way to look at it as China providing benevolent leadership to the world. There's nothing benevolent about that critter in the 'toon, IMO - or China either, if recent history is any guide.
Atlas shrugged as she adjusted her dentures.
What's yer poison She Gin Ping ?
A pair of teeth
For I speak with firked tongue
I am so far from true capitalism or communism we may be said to be living apart.
dude i like your name who teach u this word???XD
It means the whole world will get to find out what it's like to be Tibetan in Tibet - if the snake has its way.
As another poster noted, the head is the place to do the surgery - like with an axe.
You guys just would like to make anything have something to do with Tibet...
Although all people know that there are problems in Tibet, this is somehow annoying. I would say.
Oh - like we're all supposed to pretend that what's happened in Tibet didn't happen, and doesn't offer any revelations of the character of the people involved? Han are good at that kind of self-amnesia/blindness; others less so. Not everyone is Han, ya' know.
What happened in Tibet?
The Pope resigned - didn't ya' hear, DP?
It's not that you are supposed to pretend that nothing happened in Tibet, but it sounds like that you learned all sorts of things about Tibet from CNN and then assumed that's all one needs to know about China, whose head you are in such rush to axe.
Actually, I live among the Han. I am their supplicant and vassal.
There are many problems in this world, maybe you should make a list of it anytime you talk:
1. Minorities in China.
2. Minorities in the U.S., in many other countries.
3. Financial industry has exessive power.
4. Pollution.
5. Global warming...
I was only saying, this is not a topic about Tibet at all.
If you say so ... still, the point of the 'toon, plausibly at least, is that we all end up in the belly of the beast; Tibet is there already.
In Tibet?
Not sure.
Go Go China!
I hope the snake could digest our world.
Bah, JAS copies the comic style of Feng Zikai (豐子愷), yet mocks the Chinese.
The year of the snake....one more step for sending snakes towards extinction....long live rats!!
The whole world is inside of the snake?
The dragon becomes the snake.
The best year is behind us.
Now is the year to lay low, strategize and strike only when certain.
Sometimes the best way forward may be laterally.
It may be a long year......Eat a lot of long noodles.
Cut off the head of the snake!
Let's just hope the global economy moves in a pace like that of a snake: steady, smooth even though not that fast. If China can manage to be the engine, more power to it.
The years ahead, you mean.
All your earth are belong to us.
Signed -- Chinese economy

Looking for Sound Bar Speakers?
Start shoppingVideo: Choosing a Sound Bar
Get the scoop on choosing a sound bar for your TV. Sound bars are a great choice for small or difficult spaces, or if you don't want wires running around your room.
J.R.: So you may have noticed TVs have gotten a lot thinner. What you may not have noticed is the speakers inside these TVs have also gotten a lot thinner. And because of that, well, you might find yourself wanting better sound than what they can provide. A sound bar will do that for you. It's one of many solutions. I mean you could go with a big system with speakers all around your room. Of course you've got to run wires to do that, and in this room that would be challenging. We've got hardwood floors. We've got in-wall book shelves, and doors, and windows and, well just running wires would be a challenge. So why not go with a simple solution like a sound bar? And they sound really good. We've got a bunch to choose from and I'm going to help you figure out which one might be the right one for you. Let's take a look.
So here's a nice option. This is a stereo sound bar from Boston. This would be a perfect little system for a bedroom or a secondary system in your home or maybe even your first system and you just don't want a bunch of wires you're just looking for simple stereo sound that sounds better than the wimpy TV speakers.
To hook this up is simple. All you need is an RCA cable to go from the back of the TV right to the back of the sound bar. The sound bar gets its power from the wall and there's a wireless subwoofer. Most of these come with wireless subs so you don't have to run a wire from the back of your TV to the subwoofer. All you've got to do is plug the subwoofer into the wall for power and you're done. And one other thing-the TV remote control will control the volume of the sound bar so you don't even have to have another remote control in your system. Simple. Sweet. Nice and easy.
Or maybe you do want surround sound. I know I do. You know, I want bullets whizzing around my room and atmospheric sounds on the back surround speakers that sound like they're coming from behind me. I'm going to want to feel like I'm in the middle of the audio in whatever I' m watching. Well, you don't necessarily need five speakers to do that. You could get five speakers all-in-one, like with this Polk surround bar right here. We've removed the grille so you can see just how many speakers it has in it. It's got your center channel, your front left right, surround left and right all in one.
So to get this thing working, you're going to need to connect it to an audio/video receiver like this one right here. It connects just using speaker wire. It comes with this nice long color-coded speaker wire, so you really can't hook it up wrong. It's pretty simple. You're probably gonna want to add a subwoofer. Most of this type don't come with a sub and that way you can get the sub that's just right for you and your room.
So you might still be weighing your options and that's fine. We'll be able to help you figure out which sound bar is right for you and for your TV and your room and your whole exact situation. And if you do buy it from us one of the great things is tech support. It's free. You can call us up. We're gonna help you hook it up, install it, mount it, get it working with your TV whatever you need. So if you'd like to get in touch with us, give us a call. Or you can email or you can chat with us online.

A plucky stuntwoman becomes hopelessly intertwined with the CEO of a luxury department store after he mistakes her for an identically outfitted famous actress. The arrogant Joo Won tries to forget about his gaffe, but he can't get the feisty Ra Im out of his mind. When they both end up at a remote restaurant called the Secret Garden on Jeju Island, they awake the next morning to discover to their horror that they have switched bodies. How can they survive their new gender-bending existence? "Secret Garden" is a South Korean drama series directed by Shin Woo Chul and Kwon Hyuk Chan that originally aired on SBS from November 2010 to January 2011. The series swept a number of major awards at the 2010 SBS Drama Awards and the 47th Baeksang Arts Awards.
