It's time once again to examine the sitcom that everyone loved while it was on the air, but completely stopped caring about the minute it was over: Family Ties! This recap concerns a Very Special Episode. Well, yeah, of course it does. It's Family Ties, so that's sort of a given.
But this time around, I'm talking about the Mother of All Very Special Episodes: "A, My Name is Alex", which aired on the NBC television network on March 12, 1987.
I don't think anyone under the age of 25 can fully appreciate how much hype and anticipation there was surrounding this episode when it originally aired. All indications were that "A, My Name is Alex" was going to deliver something never, ever seen before in the television medium.
"A, My Name is Alex" was going to break genre boundaries. "A, My Name is Alex" was going to smash the fourth wall. "A, My Name is Alex" was going to give us all totally new insights into the nature of existence itself. "A, My Name is Alex" would be all that, and oh yes, it would also be the bag of chips.
It was the long overdue Big Statement from Family Ties creator/producer/writer Gary David Goldberg, because you can surely imagine how we as Americans were desperately wanting, nay, demanding the kind of profound wisdom that can only be dispensed by a sitcom writer. As he later explained in his autobiography, Goldberg even talked NBC entertainment chief Brandon Tartikoff into airing this episode in one, unbroken, hour-long timeslot, with limited commercial interruption. Because this episode was just that important to our survival as a civilization!
The bold move paid off. Goldberg and co-writer Alan Uger picked up Emmys for writing, Michael J. Fox picked up his third consecutive Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series, and we all came together as a country to witness a watershed moment in TV history. "A, My Name is Alex" was going to change the world!
Well, except for the part where it kind of... sucked ass?
I'll grant you, it's entirely possible the episode was some kind of revelation at the time. But it sure hasn't aged well. The laughs are weak (even by Family Ties standards), the story gets stuck in a loop and repeats itself roughly twelve times, the profound truths are mostly just clichés, and it seems the writers completely forgot to have some sort of point to the whole thing.
So how did this episode become award-worthy and world-famous? How did "A, My Name is Alex" become the only episode of Family Ties that anybody remembers nowadays that doesn't involve Tom Hanks drinking vanilla extract?
I'd say it's mostly a sign of how dead in the water the sitcom format was at the time that a mediocre script like this could be hailed as a staggering work of genius. I mean, have you watched any late '80s sitcoms lately? Have you really sat down and watched, say, Charles in Charge or Full House or—god forbid—Webster lately? Compared to the greatest-ever episode of Punky Brewster, "A, My Name is Alex" is a sublime work of art.
But thankfully, a few years after this, the likes of Seinfeld and Friends and The Simpsons would come along to breathe new life into half hour comedies, as well as mercifully put a bullet between the eyes of the whole "Very Special Episode" concept. I'm actually pretty sure that when the Seinfeld writers came up with their "no hugging, no learning" mantra, they were thinking specifically of this episode. Because "A, My Name is Alex" contains more hugging and more learning than anyone had ever dreamt possible.
The episode opens, like nine out of ten Family Ties episodes, in the Keaton family kitchen. Jennifer is here, and Tina Yothers is again dressed like a linebacker—in fact, it's the exact same outfit she wore at the outset of the "Band on the Run" episode. She's making hot cocoa for little Andrew and explaining how the rest of the Keaton clan will be back from "the funeral" soon.
I guess she's getting impatient, because she threatens to kidnap Andy and take him to Mexico if the rest of the family doesn't come home soon. No, really.
Andy mumbles something indecipherable that the closed captioning informs me is "What's a funeral?" Wow, I can already tell this episode is going to be a laugh riot. Andy, you so crazy!
Jennifer explains that a funeral is where you go to show respect to someone who just died. In this case, "Greg, Alex's friend". A friend who, needless to say, we have never seen or heard of prior to this episode.
A lot of people trash this episode for killing off a supposed "close friend" of Alex's that we never saw on the show before. But I think that's mostly a retroactive criticism leveled by people spoiled on years of serialized comedies. You kids today with your Offices and your How I Met Your Mothers just don't know; This was pretty much the way sitcoms worked back then. And we liked it!
It was definitely the way Family Ties worked. Whenever one of the kids was having an issue with a friend or a significant other, and that friend/S.O. was not Nick or Skippy, or played by Courteney Cox or Tracy Pollan, that friend/S.O. would be played by an actor who would show up for one episode, collect scale, and never be seen again. Alex had so many single-serving friends over the course of the series that I doubt it ever crossed the producers' minds that he'd be grieving over some dude named "Greg" no one had heard of.
And really, what did you expect them to do? Kill off Skippy? Or take time out from earlier episodes to throw in some random friend named Greg, just to give his death some meaning? Come on, it was the '80s. That time was much better spent on original songs by Tina Yothers.
Upon hearing that Alex's friend Greg just died, Andy says he wants to meet him. This leaves Jennifer to stammer her way through an awkward explanation of why you can't see dead people unless your name is Cole Seer. And then Andy does that standard toddler routine, where he keeps asking "why" over and over, and Jennifer gets more and more flustered, and it's all just painful.
To Jennifer's relief, the entire Keaton clan files in, all dressed in black, minus Alex. Alex is obviously hanging a few paces back on the long, arduous walk from the driveway to the house, just so he can have a comical entrance in a minute or two.
As everybody comes in, Andy spills the beans about Jennifer wanting to abduct him and take him to Tijuana, but Jenn just excuses it by saying it was "a long afternoon". And now that everybody's home, Jennifer is free to... take Andy in the other room to look at "travel brochures". Huh? Wasn't she desperate for everyone to come home just so she could pass off Andy to someone else?
The parents and Mallory talk about how sad the occasion is. Greg was only 21, and Elyse feels really bad, but all she could say to Greg's mom was "I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" Actually, I think at a funeral, that should about suffice.
Steven says everyone's pretty broken up about Greg dying. "Look at Alex!"
And with that, a stage hand cues Michael J. Fox, and here's Alex, incongruously jubilant, loudly declaring, "Was that a funeral, or what?" He cracks wise all over the kitchen about the service, and how it's important to show the dead some respect, because "the dead have an image problem". Which would've almost been a funny line, if it wasn't immediately followed up with way too loud canned laughter. I really get the feeling they were told by the network after the fact to lighten up some of the black humor, which they accomplished primarily by piping in extra laughs.
Everyone's disturbed by Alex's upbeat demeanor, and they try to tell him to go get some rest. Yeah, sleep that denial off!
But Alex perches himself up on a counter and talks about how "lucky" he is. You see, he was supposed to be in "that car" with Greg. He describes how Greg wanted Alex to help him move a piano—a piano?—but Alex said he was too busy. "Selfishness saved my life!" Alex yells. "I knew it would come in handy!" Trust me, Alex, selfishness always comes in handy.
Then Alex casually asks the family what they thought of his eulogy. Steven approves, but suggests it wasn't really necessary to "mention his net worth". Apparently, Alex also talked about Greg's "projected earnings" during the eulogy. So it's the usual "Alex loves money" humor you get with this show, but when you think about it, really, really dark. I mean, just imagine the guy's poor crying mother sitting there, and Alex has charts and graphs on an easel showing what Greg would've earned had he lived. That's... probably one of the most fucked up things this show ever implied Alex did, actually.
Mallory gives Alex some crap about his eulogy, so Alex snarks back about Mallory's eulogy. He says the guy was lying in the casket and Mallory had the nerve to say "his tie didn't go with his suit". Wait, Mallory gave a eulogy, too? Was she also close to Greg? Nothing else in the episode gives that impression, so I'm guessing they only threw in that detail as a setup for that silly joke.
And it's also a setup for the next silly joke, where Mallory says Greg's burial outfit was indeed hideous. "I wouldn't be caught dead in those colors!" Hah! She immediately realizes she's spoken out of turn, and puts a hand to her mouth. Which is how you know it's a Very Special Episode: Mallory almost shows tact.
The parents try to counter all the dark humor by making everyone sit around the kitchen table, reminiscing about what a special guy that Greg was. Good ol' Greg, the light in everyone's lives. Who didn't love Greg? I mean, for sure, everyone in this family had heard of him. He really and truly did exist!
Elyse thinks back to the time when Andy was born. For those keeping track, that was about two years ago in real time, but five or six years ago in Andy Rapid Aging Time. And like any great TV retcon, we find out Greg was important in the Keatons' lives even back then.
At the time, Greg gave Elyse a Bible, allegedly quipping, "If [Andrew] turns out to be another Alex, you're gonna need it!" Oh, Greg, you so crazy! Wait, that doesn't even make sense. Even if Alex is the Antichrist—which is certainly possible, given he was elected to Congress during the run of Spin City—how exactly would owning a Bible help?
And now here's Steven to shoehorn in a little exposition. It seems Greg was a real sports nut. He was never, ever seen without his Indians cap. Nobody "loved the Indians" more than Greg. The baseball team, he means. Though I'm sure Greg had nothing but love for native peoples.
Alex bitterly says they should have buried him in that cap. Mallory chimes in that the cap wouldn't have gone with the suit, and poof, just like that, fondly reminiscing about Greg's specialness is officially over.
They all leave the kitchen, but then someone calls out to Alex. Alex turns around, and some dude in an Indians cap is sprawled out across the counter. Indians cap? OMG, it's Greg! But wait, he's dead! OMFG, it's Zombie Greg, here to feast on Keaton brains!
Okay, not really. "Greg" is just a figment of Alex's imagination, as will become obvious in a second or two.
But hey, good thing they established the Indians cap thing, right? Otherwise, we'd have no clue who this guy is. Especially since Alex sees him and immediately yells, "Greg!" and "Gregger is back!" Yeah, I guess there really was no point to all that "sports nut" talk, was there?
Alex is ecstatic to see Greg alive again, and runs over to hug him. Cut to the rest of the family coming back into the kitchen, only to find Alex hysterically hugging himself. So it would appear that the inevitable has happened: Alex has finally lost his ever-lovin' mind.
To cover up this apparent psychotic break, Alex claims he was just inventing a new dance called "the Keaton Samba", and to prove it, he starts doing halfhearted dance moves. Everyone realizes that Alex is swiftly losing his grip on reality, and they all skedaddle to allow Dad to have a heart-to-heart with Alex.
Steven tells Alex not to rush things, and let himself take the time he needs to grieve. And then Steven quickly skedaddles as well. Because seriously, who wants to be that close to some crazy Republican nutjob having hallucinations?
The change drop gave me the biggest laugh in the entire run of the series.
What kind of ding-a-ling goes into a multi page spiel about the short comings of a TV episode? A paragraph or so is understandable, but half a book's worth of caffeine fueled ranting about a two decade old sitcom is disturbing. Go see a legitimate doctor, and leave the manifesto writing in peace.
Is recapping an old show better or worse than commenting on a 3 year old recap?
You do know what kind of website this is, right?
um your all timeless losers anybody that would waste the effort responding to this garbage has no life and whoops oh crap
I loved Family Ties ... especially this episode... Why are there no reruns? Such a great show!
All I can say aside from the critic's comments and GREAT "Marty" references, is that this episode really shaped out Alex's character. For me, the lines: "Is it so hard to be you, Alex?" is about his difficulties of becoming the perfect Alex he is trapped into. Though sometimes he appears to be some genius money-lover big brother jerk, yet there is something that makes us love him. He turns out to be an arrogant overachiever of the family but still he does find it hard to be himself. It was because he almost never gave the chance of his other psyche to occur. In other words, it was as if for him everything was planned out. He was too mature, one-sided. And thanks to this episode I've seen other psyches of the Alex that I was hoping to see. Since I was a BTTF fan before watching this sitcom, I did hope to see some Mcfly attitude in this APK role but no luck. Then again, I gotta say Alex nailed that air-guitar solo like the one way back in 1955 with the starlighters. Many might say this is not as funny as the previous episodes but it's worth watching cause we got to see Alex realizing a lot of things and knowing him deeper than before. He finally realized that there are many things to know in life because of his friend's memories, love of a family and there is God.
Loved the Plan 9 reference!
The "critic" here... is a person who so lacks the talents or abilities to enter the profession of television or acting that he/she instead sits in judgment... bitter queen.
Hit a nerve, did we?
The fundamental problem with this episode is it was not a Very Special Episode to explore the death of a friend and coming to grips with grief. It was just a cynical attempt for Michael J. Fox to showcase his acting talents. Michael J. Fox wanted to prove that he was more than just some actor in a sitcom who can deliver one-liners. He wanted to do dramatic acting. So the producers came up with this disaster. It happened again later in the series when Justine Bateman wanted to do drama. So they conjured-up some long lost aunt who appears long enough to die just so Justine Bateman can emote in an overly-dramatic fashion. At least Meredith Baxter had the good sense not to appear in that episode and spared any quilt by association.
I'm just making clarifications here and no offense. fyi, the 'drama' that you were saying happened first in season 3's episode, 'Auntie Up' and this episode came out in season 5. You may also say that but just so you know he won an award for that because he got great talents not only for a money lover sarcastic humor type but also for a realistic acting experience. This episode is worth something and can be taken as a lesson. It'd be a great reflection for people who felt the same way in real life. A my name is alex was very unique from the other episodes. As seen in this episode, the sitcom hit show just wanted to show the deep realities in one's life in lighter manner and also to twist the show a bit for a change.
I wonder if Alex was in the car accident, and was in purgatory for this entire episode. I know I was.
well done!

Bravo Networks has created a new cooking reality show, Around the World in 80 Plates, which premiers this Wed., May 9, at 9pm CST. The show—a mash-up of Top Chef and Amazing Race—takes 12 chefs around the world to compete in challenges that culminate in elimination rounds where the chefs must cook in local restaurants for the denizens of each international city.
St. Louisans will be especially tuned in because one of our own, Local Harvest Café's Clara Moore, is a competitor on the show. The Morganford-area chef took some time off from admiring her passport stamps to talk to us about the show, her experience and how there really is no place like home.
FEAST: What made you want try out for Around the World in 80 Plates?
Clara Moore: It was suggested to me, and my initial thought was, "that's crazy," but then I realized I should go for it. There's nothing I love more than cooking and traveling—it's what I've built my life and career around. Looking at the show, I realized that it was pretty much made for me.
F: Walk us through how you become a contestant on a Bravo TV show.
M: You make a video, which was a lot of fun. You give them pictures of your food, write some sample menus; basically, you show off your culinary talent. I tried to show off my personality as much as I could. Then, if they like you, it's a back and forth. I went out to L.A. to do some final round stuff—they pare it down, and then pare it down again. I didn't even know until the last minute that I was chosen. They called and were like, "next week!"
F: So, you packed your bags and went around the world. What was it like on the show once you got there?
M: It was hilariously, terrifyingly hard. The thing about chefs is that we're loud and we want to be in charge. It's amplified when you have all these chefs trying to do the best that they can do. We're all bosses, so it was difficult for us to meld.
F: Did your experiences here in St. Louis help you in any way?
M: Definitely. I'm a very American cook, and [at Local Harvest Café] I try to integrate as much soul as I can into my food. Local cuisine has a formula—you have to think of the climate and what grows there, the social mores and what the society, as a whole, is like. The first episode was in London, which I'd been to before, but I got to see a lot of parts of the city that I'd never seen. [The producers] did a really good job of introducing us to the culture, which in turn, helped me make quality food as gorgeous and nutritious as I could.
F: In your travels for the show, what did you realize about your hometown, and what did you miss most?
M: Going away always breeds appreciation for home. I think the food here is amazing, and whether it's cooks like myself or new cooks coming from other countries and setting up in places like Olive and Cherokee, there's a good range in food here, and it's growing every day. What I missed most while on the show was my own kitchen. I missed my staff, my farmers and my local community. It gave me an appreciation for what I built here.

First sexual experience can set tone for future romantic life

The first time really is important, as researchers claim that the quality of your first sexual experience colours your sex life for years to come.
Specifically, those who felt loved and respected by their partner found later encounters more emotionally satisfying.
The study, Gone But Not Forgotten, is one of the first to look at whether the circumstances in which someone loses their virginity have lasting consequences, the Daily Mail reported.
The US researchers asked 331 young men and women about how they lost their virginity, including whether they felt scared, pressured, guilty or regretful.
They were also asked about how connected they felt to their partner, including whether they felt respected and loved, and how they felt afterwards.
The volunteers, who answered the questions anonymously, were then asked to fill in an online diary detailing any sexual experiences they had over the next fortnight.
They were also asked how they would rate their sexual relationships overall.
In more than two-thirds of cases, the volunteers said they were in a relationship when they lost their virginity.
Analysis of their answers showed that those who were most emotionally satisfied the first time still found their sex lives the most fulfilling. The same was true of physical satisfaction.
A better first time also tended to lead to fewer feelings of disappointment.
The study is published in the Journal of Sex and Marital Therapy.

A blog from the Center for International Higher Education
May 3, 2011 - 8:46am
The Australian government, still the major funding agent of higher education, (although much less so than was the case 20 years ago) has an ambitious agenda. The government wants to raise the proportion of Australians with at least a first degree from the current ratio of around 32% (for those aged between 25 and 34 years) to 40% by 2025. Part of a wider agenda is to widen access to higher education for marginalised socio-economic groups, including the poor, rural and remote populations, and indigenous students.
April 25, 2011 - 9:15am
In recent months there have been reports from several countries hinting at a trend towards tightening up visa requirements for international students. The notable current examples are Australia and in April, the UK announced the implementation of new restrictions. The United States implemented dramatically new visa restrictions after 9/11 but has since loosened them significantly. Are these restrictions unfair to students or damaging to higher education? In a word, no.

The Future of Private Higher Education in Central Europe: Changing Political and Demographic Dynamics
March 21, 2011 - 11:15am
Anyone interested in the global growth of private higher education (PHE) should have a closer look at the last two decades in Poland. Poland is the 6th largest higher education system in the European Union (1.9 million students), with the largest student body and highest enrollment in the private sector (633.000 students and 33.3% in 2009). After twenty years of continuous growth, the sector suffered a 10% decline in enrollments in 2009.
March 15, 2011 - 8:47am
At times of increasing entrepreneurialism in universities, when budget pressures drive higher education administrators to press professors to think and act more like business executives, it may be of some use to remind ourselves of the various ways in which the vocation and career path of the academic depart from those of the business executive.
March 9, 2011 - 10:45am
The state university in Campinas, UNICAMP, one of the leading research universities in Brazil, has announced a new experimental procedure for student admissions[1].

While Latin American universities are certainly attentive to rankings and their poor showing in most of them, there is a growing trend to focus on other things. These new activities will not have any impact on institutional standing in those inevitable international competitions but they just might improve the quality of the education Latin American universities deliver.

The president of the S.C. Press Association has expressed "strong disappointment" in the actions of South Carolina football coach Steve Spurrier in a letter to USC's president, Dr. Harris Pastides.
Bill Hawkins, president of the SCPA and editor and publisher of The Post and Courier, asked Pastides to intervene in the situation after Spurrier refused to speak to the media at his weekly news conference Tuesday unless a columnist for The State newspaper left the room.
"(Spurrier's) actions discriminated against newspaper reporters in general, and were punitive to an individual newspaper columnist with whom Coach Spurrier had a disagreement," Hawkins wrote. "This certainly is not appropriate for a coach at our state's flagship university."
Hawkins asked that Pastides "instruct your football coach to treat all media equally, including the 115 newspaper members of our association."
Spurrier touched off the controversy Tuesday by informing reporters that he would not speak to them as long as Ron Morris, a columnist for The State, remained in the room. He eventually met with about a dozen reporters in his office. Spurrier accused Morris of inaccurate reporting in a story that included a reference to basketball point guard Bruce Ellington joining the football team.

On Lupita Nyong'o: "Blackness, in a context of white American oppression, is a role. It is not intrinsic to her identity"
Stacia L. Brown writes wonderfully about what it means when a "(comparatively) carefree black girl wins an Oscar."
Our ingenues rarely win Oscars. It is our seasoned comediennes, sassing their way through lines like, "Molly, you in danger, girl!" or throwing frying pans at their pregnant daughters, who take home the gold. It is the reality star who belts a gut-wrenching beggarly torch song to a man already walking away or the naked grieving mother sexing the guard who executed her husband, the round, battered, quick-witted maid who bakes her own excrement into pies. They are the ones who win. And we are proud of their achievements. We take everything we get, and we are glad for, if critical of, it.
By "carefree" here Brown means that Nyong'o is privileged (family support, an MFA from Yale), beloved by media, apparently effortless under the weight of having become the "boilerplate of every blackgirl dream deferred," gracious in processing a breakout role that asked her to "deeply [connect] with part of the diasporic experience that is foreign to her family in ways it is not to the American black's." Unlike black American actresses, Nyong'o is not "saddled with centuries of diminishing returns." Brown quotes Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie saying, "When I came to the United States, I hadn't stayed very long, but I already knew that to be 'black' was not a good thing in America, and so I didn't want to be 'black.'"
While I don't get the impression that Nyong'o, having spent the last two years of her life immersing herself in study and portrayal of the American slave experience, would hold the same perception of American blackness as Adichie initially did, it is safe to say she can still hold herself aloft from it. For her, blackness, in a context of white American oppression, is a role. It is not intrinsic to her identity. […] I already know what Hollywood will try to make her. I know the gradations of blackness they will implore her to learn. But I do not know how she will resist. I do not know what she herself will teach. But she is entering the field with just enough privilege and confidence to inspire my hope that she will do just that: instruct rather than simply accept — and learn from black actresses (rather than white directors) how best to navigate this space.

Musical Potential
This chapter discusses the identification of musical potential in childhood and considers the impact of an environment that is nurturing and stimulating. It addresses the place of musical ability tests as well as personality assessment and suggests that while these are areas for the teacher's consideration, they may prove to be of minor significance in any formal selection processes. The chapter describes the manner in which parents and teachers might consider musical potential, not as something finite but as something that may gradually emerge during childhood. The question of children's potential to play various instruments is considered as well as the existence of certain stereotypes prevalent in musical circles. Suggestions are offered to parents and teachers so they may become aware of a child's potential as soon as it becomes observable and nurture it in a facilitating environment.
"This child is musical, you know. " How often have we heard an adult—a proud parent, an elderly relation, a friend of the family—say something like that! What do they mean? And are they right?
The chances are that the adult is trying to say something positive about the child, something that marks him or her out as more special than other children in a manner that is wholesome or at least harmless. Being a musical child is, in the eyes of an interested adult, normally good. The adult thinks that something has been spotted in the child that destines him or her for greatness as some kind of musician or at least indicates that it is worth giving the child opportunities that may be denied to other children, for example, lessons on a musical instrument. In other words, the adult is suggesting that the child has what we shall describe in this book as musical potential: a latent, but as yet unrealized, capacity to do something musical—for example, play the flute.
But is the adult right? Is it possible to spot that one child has more potential than another to play flute or piano or trombone before either has been given a

2009 Hyundai Elantra Sedan SE 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl 5M)
I just bought my Hyundai, and I have no complaints! Its performance is amazing compared to my old mazda, and you can't beat the price, 12,000. If anyone is looking into the Hyundai Elantra, you should really consider it!
3 free months of XM Warranty is fantastic the exterior/ Interior performance Safety features ( This car is a tank!) Tires they put on it are the best!
Nothing comes to mind!
2009 Hyundai Elantra Sedan GLS 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl 5M)
My wife and i love this car. The lack of road noise is fantastic and ads to the use of the blue tooth phone on board this fun to drive vehicle. The back seats fold down individually permitting you to haul long items while still seating somebody in the back seat. We drove many vehicles before buying this one, and for the money nothing comes close to this car for value. It not only has an Aux port for ipods or other music players, but it also has a USB port for flash drives and other usb devices. The Cabin on this car is very quiet and comfortable.
Blue tooth phone, very quiet interior. several entertainment options.
mud flaps need to be standard on all the models.
Can hear a lot of the road while driving but other than that a great car so far.
blue lights in dashboard, very impressive
a little bit of a noisy ride
2009 Hyundai Elantra Sedan SE 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl 4A)
I bought this car for my daughter and she fell in love with it. She loves the blue light interior and the way it handles. The price was awesome. Paid 14K for it. Very impressed. I was worried about engine noise, but after driving it, it wasn't that bad. So no complaints. Had to decide between the Corolla S and Hyundai. Went with Hyundai based on price and features. We get 3 months of XM. Toyota doesn't offer that. A lot more amenities that a kid could like at that age.
Color light interior. Price
Nothing so far.
2009 Hyundai Elantra Sedan GLS PZEV 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl 4A)
Bought 2 weeks ago, 1,500 miles so far, am totally impressed with the quality and value. Great interior features, 2 trip tach, rides smooth, quick acceleration on fwy. onramps, great control compared to what am used to. I shopped and compared Civics, Corollas and others, for months previous to buying, owned Toyotas previously, but this impressed me more than the new Corolla. No complaints at all! I'm only 5'0", and like how I can see the road, compared to a Civic. Very satisfied with it, plus a great warranty. So far the MPG is about 30 city/36 hwy.
MPG, cruise, XM radio, all the cubbyholes!
A/C vents could move up/down instead of just sideways.

I love the challenge of creating different looks with every project I do whether it is a wedding, newborn/maternity shoot, or a product shoot.
From my box brownie as a 6 year old to my state of the art Canon camera now, I am always looking to capture something different and seldom have my camera far from me.
Aside from photography my passions are relaxing with my family, anything to do with the water and beach and my animal menagerie.

Yesterday the venerable New York Post reported that Bernard Madoff—yep, $65 billion Bernie from Cell Block C—was dying of cancer. I'm not sure who was the more accomplished conman in this short story: Madoff or the Post's reportorial standards.
But first, it's worth considering whether God might punish Madoff for his sins. Here's what Rabbi David Wolpe said about Madoff back in December:
Maimonides lists sins—following the laws of the Mishna—that cannot be fully forgiven. Common to most is an inability to make restitution (another example is one who coldly assumes "I'll sin, be forgiven, sin, be forgiven" etc.). Madoff cannot conceivably make restitution to the unnumbered he has hurt—from lost personal savings to people dependent on the bone marrow registry whose holdings he squandered. Perhaps someone of purer soul might be persuaded to find redemption possible for him. I confess I cannot.
Some have reserved for Madoff a special place in hell. But might God be expediting that sentence?
Well, I tend to believe those days of divine retribution are gone. And Madoff is thus far not proving otherwise. Despite the New York Post's report, which was confirmed by the Wall Street Journal, the U.S. Bureau of Prisons denied yesterday that Madoff has cancer:
"While the NY Post story is full of inaccuracies, and we can't specifically address all of them, we can tell you that Bernie Madoff is not terminally ill, and has not been diagnosed with cancer."

Why Does Amazon.com Allow Multiple Accounts With the Same Email Address?
One customer logged into his account and discovered that the Kindle he ordered was gone from his account, yet a check of his bank account showed that the money was indeed gone. It turned out to be a case of multiple accounts.
Another customer discovered that he had two accounts when he logged in and noticed that his purchase history was many years old.
Interesting questions arise when the multiple passwords on one email address situation is thought out. For example, what happens if I have two accounts with the same email address and I attempt to change the password on one account so that it matches the password on another account?
At the risk of destroying my Amazon.com account I decided to try it out. This is the message that Amazon.com gave me:
So fortunately Amazon.com does not allow you to mess up your account in this way. However, it does lead to another interesting question: Since Amazon.com does not require email verification of new accounts would it be possible to gain access to someone else's account by creating an account with their email address and then guessing passwords until you saw the "Important Message" which indicates that you have correctly guessed their password?
This explains why Amazon.com requires an image verification for changing the password. If they didn't someone could easily set up a bot which could retrieve the password of any account on Amazon with little trouble. However, it does mean that an Amazon.com account is only as secure as the image verification feature and the concealed nature of your email address. With regard to the image verification, I wonder how long it will be before computers are able to read simple image verifications like this:
What Amazon should really do is get rid of this strange account technique, if for no other reason than that it is inconvenient and confusing for many customers.
The only reason why Amazon.com implemented this feature in the first place was so that they could allow family members to have multiple accounts on the same email address. But this was during the early days of the internet when email addresses were expensive. Now a free email account is easy to come by.
There is no longer any need for Amazon users to have multiple accounts on the same email address.

This happened to me just last week. Two accounts on same email address. I would apply a gift card in one then the other not realizing it was two different accounts. I called Amazon and they can not merge the accounts at all. The rep had to up my issue with the gift card services which then transfered one balance to the other account which I know now not to log into.ReplyDelete
Yep that was the exact thing that happened to me and motivated me to write this post. ;)ReplyDelete
It might be a little quirky, but how is this a security hole? Can you please further explain how "guessing e-mail/password combinations" is "hacking"? This is a sensationalist article.ReplyDelete
If you can use the same e-mail address and different passwords to create different accounts; then anyone creating a new account with my e-mail and a different password still doesn't have access to my account. They have to know my password to access my account. So bots can create accounts with my e-mail all day... the only thing that would happen to me is a bunch of welcome e-mails perhaps to the same e-mail address.
As you demonstrated in your blog post; you can't create a new account with the same e-mail/password combination. It sounds like people who log in to find "order dating back years" just happened to use an older password. Same thing with the person who "lost their kindle order".
Hello Drew. I do not feel that this article is sensationalist as I do not say in this article that it is a security hole, nor do I say that it is hacking to guess password / email combinations.ReplyDelete
I'm just pointing out that this technique could be used. I'm also highlighting how the security of you Amazon account is dependent on how secret you keep your email address and on the assumption that bots won't be able to read the image verification.
This is not a security hole but rather a security inconvenience.

This is definitely a horrible practice by Amazon. Identity theft usually happens by someone you know. That means, someone, who might have the last four of your credit card and your e-mail address could create another account you don't know about and, if you didn't know about this Amazon practice, you would have no idea where to start, yet the purchase would still be tracked back to you. Amazon needs to get rid of this practice. I just found out today I have THREE accounts under my e-mail address. WHAT????ReplyDelete
Thanks for commenting Anonymous. I recommend that you complain to Amazon.com. If more people complain about this it may eventually result in a policy change.ReplyDelete

In my view, it is a way for very busy people to lose money to Amazon by losing track of their accounts (especially those that have gift cards).ReplyDelete
Just today, I would have lost over $100.00 due to multiple accounts had I not went out of my way to contact Amazon when it should have been a simple process.
The Scenario - I had sent back 3 textbooks under their buyback offer, and got an email from Amazon stating that I had a $101.47 gift card in my account. A month later, I ordered a furnace filter and, forgetting that I had already created an account, got the message
Bottom line is I ended up with an additional account based on their unclear instructions after the above message. My additional account had no connection to my $100+ gift card account.
Many, many, many people are not going to research this stuff and go after their money (in my opinion), especially if the dollars are small, or those controlling the orders are not those actually earning the dollars.
This practice by Amazon is simply a way to make recouping what is legitimately yours more difficult, in hopes that lazy people will not make the effort. I imagine that unclaimed funds are a major revenue source for Amazon.
What do you think?

Thank you so much for this blog. The same exact thing happened to me and I was told the accounts cannot be merged, but 1 can be cancelled (if you call them). so surprising that they would have this weird, confusing, annoying, and ultimately potentially dangerous feature. amazon is usually wonderful and safe and great. hope it doesn't happen to anyone else, but if it does, it's probably worth complaining about so they know & hopefully will change.ReplyDelete

I just realized today that I had two accounts.ReplyDelete
An order that I placed was just sent to an old address from a very old account. I guess I must have logged on with my old-stale password associated with my old mailing address.
It was very confusing as the order wasn't even showing up in my current account, but the email did come to me. They really need to change this.

I am as stunned as everyone else above. I am about to complain to Amazon because the impact on me has been financial and resulted in a bad credit reference.ReplyDelete
Not realising I had two accounts I deleted the connection with my MBNA Amazon card on only one but then continued to place orders on the wrong one. This has put me in debt to MBNA!

I also just discovered I had two accounts- same e-mail address, two different passwords. I discovered it by receiving e-mail confirmations, but not showing purchases in Amazon's billing history. I think the only way someone would know (if they did not suspect something was wrong with their account) would be to call customer service. According to customer service the multiple accounts can not be combined, but one or the other may be cancelled.ReplyDelete

Here is the scenario where it should work perfectly. I believe the feature was designed to serve this or very similar purpose.ReplyDelete
I just got Kindle for my kid who is too young to have own email. I don't want him/her to have full access to my account and all the books I have there, but I want to be notified using my email of any activity on that second account. That second account can have gift cards to make purchases, have a separate collection of eBooks/movies, etc. Eventually I should be able to change email address on that second account, and let the kid have completely separate one with all the history and purchases.
Does this make sense?
Now, very unfortunately, it looks like Amazon listened to threads like the above. When I try to setup new account today, I am getting:
There is already an Amazon account with the e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com.
If you create a new account with the same e-mail, the existing account will be disabled. Once disabled, the existing account will not be able to access order history, gift certificates, digital purchases, Kindle books or any other data.
And this is really scary and unfortunate.

I was thinking of doing this to separate my work-related purchases from my personal purchases. When I put in my "work" password only work items (Kindle purchases, wish lists, etc) would be visible. If I made a separate account I would have to pay twice for Amazon Prime. Thoughts?ReplyDelete

I think it's quite possible to have multiple Seller accounts, although this requires you to jump through a few hoops but hey, it's worth it.ReplyDelete
First off, you'll need separate names, addresses, bank accounts, credit cards and social numbers to apply to each Seller account you open. This can be your gf / bf, or any of your relatives, esp. those that are totally computer illiterate. Use PO Box for the address. You can open a PO Box in each U.S. city, and then request mail forwarding to your city of residence. Try using your company name instead of your or someone else's real name; this applies to the PO Box, bank account, and credit card.
You can get caught if you sell inventory that is the same or similar to your old one. To circumvent this, try a completely new line of products, and after several months slooowwly one-by-one introduce your new line of products.

Use disposable e-mail accounts for your different Buyer accounts, and a new Gift Card each time. Then close your disposable email, and you're all set. You can do this unlimited number of times, and can use only your first name and a PO Box for the address.ReplyDelete
This works on Amazon but not on eBay, as the latter wants your cc along with Gift Card. But then again, you can have unlimited number of accounts on eBay perfectly legally. I myself have about half a dozen.

Unless you have very weak passwords (like "1234", "dog", "cat", etc), I would not worry about this. The statement "they can easily guess your password if they have your username" is also bullshit.ReplyDelete
Here comes the math. Suppose that only 70 characters are used for any given password (English upper and lower case letters total 56 alone, and then you have 10 numbers, etc, etc).
Now suppose that you only have a 4 character password. Is that secure? Well, that would take 70^4 attempts to try all possible combinations. That's 24,010,000. Even if cracking were not timed out after a few invalid attempts, and each request took 1/100 of a second, that would still take 70 hours...just for you? with a 4 char pw? come on guys

Guys I also found out that my Email-address had two accounts. I tried to change both accounts to a new different Email-address and found out that Amazon does now accept just ONE account for each Email-address. This means that the problem of several accounts with the same Email-address is already solved and does only occur for old accounts!ReplyDelete
By the way: you also can delete your additional account if this is too dangerous/scary for you...

My guess is that most of us have old Amazon accounts and when Amazon switched to a newer version of their website, we all were able to create a new Amazon account with the same email address. I have two seller accounts, just made a sale on one but cannot log into it to finalize the sale and ship. Very frustrating.ReplyDelete

What is even worse, years ago I forgot my password, so I reset it, and yet here I am now, same email address and two passwords...the only difference between the two accounts is the password, and yet the "customer service" rep will not explain to me why they cannot merge the account. Is it going to take some type of class action lawsuit against Amazon for making account holders buy two devices to be able to read items from both accounts.

I am going thru this same issue!!! I have been ordering things with my Prime membership with it then one day everything in my cart disappears and i have no history. I call amazon and found that i have an acct in 2011 that i thought i cancelled because of this same issue which they didnt cancel. I have 2 accounts current accounts which somehow my Prime Membership is now on the account that has only 16 digital movies and my newer account has all my shipments and cart. So if i delete the older account of the two - i lose all 16 digital movies that i have in my Library. Then I have to repurchase Prime Membership on my shopping account that has all my history.ReplyDelete

Recent Journeys in Abstract By: E. Boehringer
E. Boehringer
My work shows an instinctive need to create not so much what I see, but what is within. My paintings are a glimpse of times and places I have visited and the personal feelings that are attached to these places. My paintings often depict the fleeting image or tapestry to give a different perspective; to tempt the imagination of the audience so they can respond in their own individual manner.

The Best Hidden Murals in San Francisco
In the everyday bustle of San Francisco life, it can be easy to miss the colorful street art that covers the City's structures. Tucked away off the main drag or raised above street level, these murals breathe life into a concrete city, and sometimes, they do seem to be alive. Faces laugh, animals lurk, and cartoons giggle. All it takes is looking up or walking around the block to discover a masterpiece. Here are some of the best in SF.
Is Reno Poised to Become a Culture Capital?
Reno isn't called Artown for nothin'. The city mostly known for its gaming is blooming with Burning Man sculptures, murals, Broadway musicals, and bluegrass music. The Nevada Museum of Art and its Center for Art + Environment was recently awarded a 2014 TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence and will soon have one of the best views in Reno from its new Sky Room. Art in all its forms is now woven through the fabric of the city in unexpected ways.
Crib Sheet: 6 Bay Area Street Artists to Know
No walk or bike ride around San Francisco is complete without a bit of rubbernecking to scope out the many vibrant murals that brighten up our city's streets. Learn the names of six of our favorite Bay Area artists who are awakening the streets of SF and beyond.
1AM Mobile App: A Virtual Gallery for Street Art Enthusiasts
If you're like me, your stumbles through the city have unwittingly exposed you to a variety of fascinating street art. Or maybe you're one of those cool hipsters who hangs out in the Mission, purposefully searching out every spraypainted wall your houndstooth-wearing soul can find. Either way, you may be in luck, as the 1AM mobile app allows the street art lover or creator to snap pics, and share their favorite local urban Picassos.
Legally Experiment With Spray Painting at the Urban Youth Arts Festival
Bring the family out to Precita Park this Sunday, July 25 from 1-6pm for an afternoon of music, dance, refreshments, and hands-on community art at the Urban Youth Arts Festival. Kids will have the opportunity to (legally!) experiment with spray painting on mural-ready panels set up in the park.

hi there...
Thank you so much for this plugin! I installed 2 plugins on a sub site that requires user registration and I did not want them going to the main network site to register! I now have them going to a page on the sub site to register:
The problem I'm having is that on the registration page, it still is showing the title of the main site on the network, not the subsite. How can I change this? Or at least remove everything so it it just says "create your account".

HAD ANOTHER EXCELLENT MEAL THIS YEAR . The table was facing the contemporary saw the water parade and the fireworks from MK
What did you have here? Was the service nice? We had the nastiest server when we were there! I sure am happy to know that your experience was MUCH better!
Very good to know. I like to hear that the servers take interest in the guests. I'd make a terrible server. I'd be nattering on with the guests instead of doing my work.
Another place we haven't been to in ages but on our ADR list if we still get to go in December.

Skip to comments.Kattracks is with God now - please pray for her family
Posted on 10/21/2006 9:46:37 AM PDT by patriciaruthEdited on 05/07/2007 1:22:22 PM PDT by Admin Moderator. [history]
UPDATE: We received this from her son early this morning.
To Admin Moderator | 05/07/2007 3:21:46 AM CDT sent
I just wanted to let you, and all the wonderful people on this forum that my mother considered her friends, Kattracks, passed away yesterday afternoon. She died peacfully, with her family at her bedside. If you knew my mother, you knew how concerned she was with the welfare of others. At one point in the afternoon, we were all gathered at her bed, reminiscing about her,the good times, and all the good things she had done for others. It was as if she had waited for this moment, when she knew that her loved ones were going to be alright, that she was able to let go, and pass into the care of God. To all that knew her, be rest assured that she is waching over you from Heaven. That is just the way my mother was. She always put the welfare of others ahead of her own.
Everytime my brother, father, or I would leave the house, my mothers last words to us was Be Careful. I asked her one day why she always said this to us. She explained to me that in that one phrase was wrapped up all the prayers, concerns, and love that she had for us, but to explain it all to us as we walked out the door would take too long, so she would just say Be careful. Im glad I asked her what she meant, because from that day on, and everytime she said it since then, I understood who, and what, my mother was.
Thank you all for your prayers and support for her.
Original thread:
Kattracks has asked me to begin a prayer thread for her, the hardest thing I have ever been asked to do.
She has had a very frightening finding on a medical exam that is not confirmed and may be a false alarm, but which requires all of us to uplift her to Almighty God asking for His mercy to spare her life or to give her and us the strength and faith to walk the path He has chosen for her.
More information than that I am not at liberty to disclose.
Please ping everyone you know who can pray for kattracks, who was long a moderator on FR and now is the Fairy Godmother of the Merry Band of Patriots.
Because I could not stop for Death,
He kindly stopped for me.
The Carriage held but just ourselves
And Immortality
~Emily Dickinson
Kat will be dearly missed .. tears
I am so sorry for the loss! May God give strength to the family.
"Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted."
Prayers sent. Sorry for your loss. Thank you for sharing how wonderfully your mom applied two simple words, "be careful".
God bless!
Prayers for all those who loved her and know that tears are shed by many who never knew her in person......
Prayers for the family. May God be with you during this time and always and bring you some day to be reunited with your loved one.
I was not aware she was ill. I'll always remember her courgae going up alone against the Mayor on TV when Hillary stiffed the media and that little girl. I smile when I remember that. How one person made sure they didn't get off scott free.
God be with your mother and your family. She'll missed on this site.
I'm sorry for your loss.
Sending my thoughts and prayers for kattracks' family and friends. Know that we're all with you in your time of sorrow.
God Speed kattracks, hope to see you on the other side.
"kattracks", otoh, needs NO prayers, as she sleeps in the sheltering arms of The Eternal Savior.

Had I the heaven's embroidered cloths,
Enwrought with golden and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
Of night and light and the half-light,
I would spread the cloths under your feet:
But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.
William Butler Yeats
Thanks for sharing the dream with us, Kattracks.
You will be remembered and missed. May the Good Lord comfort your Loved Ones.
God Bless her family and may she be smiling in the presence of Jesus. Thank you for notifying me. Take care- Cate
I join in prayer for Kattrack's family and loved ones.
Best wishes to kattracks and her loved ones. She was a good one.
A prayer for Kattracks
Dear Lord let her rest in peace and comfort her family.
Am very blessed to read your kind words.
And God's best provision, support, guidance, protection, blessings, fellowship and closeness in all your struggles, too.
May she rest in peace.
I'm so sorry to read of kattrack's passing. God bless you all. She rests now in the Everlasting Arms.
the world is a sadder place today...heaven is a happier place.... may God be with you in this sad time...
WOW I didn't see this one coming. Peace and love to her family. She's entered that great cloud of witnesses that are watching and beholding our order.
To the Sorrowful, He is Sympathy.
I am so sorry to hear this. Prayers for the family.
I have been here over eight years. Kattracks was a grace note in the forum.
My eyes are wet.
Heaven's gain, but a huge loss to us.
I am very sorry. The woman we new as 'Kattracks' was well regarded as a friend here.
Thank you John, this is so very sad.
Prayers sent, RIP
oh i am just so, so sorry to hear this.
Rest in peace, dear Kattracks. You are loved and you will be reunited with all who love you.
In memory of Kattracks

Perhaps, tho Garden City is probably an hour from here. What time is the service to be?
Awful news John and she is one freeper I will miss terribly. Seems like only yesterday we were standing together waiting for GWB to exit Letterman's studio. She was the picture of health so looking forward to electing a Republican President. May she Rest in Peace and may God bless her family during this most difficult time.
I think you said it best of all here. As a member of the early morning crowd about 4 AM cst, you and KAT had us all informed about everything worth knowing. Thank you for the kind words and bless Kat and her family!
Perhaps, tho Garden City is probably an hour from here. What time is the service to be?
I'm so very sorry to hear this news.
I pray God will give her family great comfort during their time of grief and sorrow.
Happy Graduation, Kattracks. You did well.
Thank you
I am saddened. This is a shock. I'm so sorry.
Hey kattracks, I know you can hear me...You can get FR up where you are... We only communicated freeper2freeper once or twice, but I am certain that we'll miss your late night thread postings so much, it will take the work of 10 Freepers to pick up the slack. Thank you for fighting the right fight!!!
9 Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices;
my body also will rest secure,
10 because you will not abandon me to the grave,
nor will you let your Holy One see decay.
11 You have made known to me the path of life;
you will fill me with joy in your presence,
with eternal pleasures at your right hand.
God bless kattracks, her family and friends.

Esoteric Knowledge Throughout Time
Waking Times: Go far enough back in time and you'll reach to a point where entire societies were based around the universal knowledge of the journey of consciousness in its awakening – in Central and South America, Easter Island, Egypt, Cambodia, India and in many other places now submerged under the ocean. The precision of some of the sacred sites that were created is astonishing, revealing the cosmic principles of enlightenment in their geometry and design. Many of the oldest teachings such as the Rig Veda and the Pyramid Texts of Egypt contain a sublime spiritual message.

"Not an engineer, but it seems easy to interpret so far" October 22, 2014

First Look at Akariba, Zenkichi's New Oyster and Sake Bar
Specializing in the "deadly combo" of Kumamotos and sake cocktails.
Shaul Margulies and Motoko Watanabe, the couple that owns Zenkichi, have converted their Williamsburg izakaya's backyard into Akariba, a 40-seat lounge specializing in what Margulies calls "the deadly combo of sake and oysters." Once it opens next Thursday, it'll feature a seasonally rotating ten-item menu of oysters (everything from Blue Points to Kumamotos), small bites such as grilled toro, and within the next weeks, sashimi prepared by Zenkichi's chef Tetsuya Akikawa, who honed his sushi skills at Jewel Bako. Desserts will come form Zenkichi.
Most of the dishes (excluding the sashimi) will be priced from $5 to $10, and cocktails made from beer, wine, and sake (which will also rotate seasonally) will cost $8 to $11. We're told Akariba translates to "the glow of a lantern in the dark," and as you can see in our slideshow, the interior (capped by a glass ceiling) is every bit as sultry as its sister establishment. Reservations won't be accepted — just find Zenkichi's hidden door and Akariba's is a little bit to your right. Listen for the jazz ...
Akariba, 77 N. 6th St., nr. Wythe Ave.; 718-388-8985
