The year is about to end and you'd like to say goodbye to 2006 with a bang, and something delicious and different on the table. Only question now is, what to cook? Don't give yourself a headache, check out some of the recipes the chefs recommend for this special dinner.
If you've only got 30 minutes, then who better to ask than Rachael Ray who hosts 30 Minute Meals. Her Crab Salad Bites on Endive are easy to make and a delicious way to get started at your party.
If pasta is something you want on the table and stay in the seafood theme, why not try some of Bobby Flay's Sea Bass with Potatoes and Tomatoes in Parchment with Angel Hair Pasta. This is absolutely delicious and healthy. Chef Flay also recommends the Arugula Salad with Lemon and Olive Oil to go with this dish.
A fancy dinner doesn't have to be hard to make. In fact Tyler Florence says you can make this Filet Mignon with Mushrooms and Sauce Pinot Noir in just 20 minutes. You'll be amazed at how quick and easy this recipe is and how wonderful it tastes.
Don't forget to get some good champagne to welcome in the new year with. Put on your party hats, enjoy the food and the fireworks and sing Auld Lang Syne.

Christmas is the season for giving and receiving and Wolfgang Puck has certainly received a very nice gift this Christmas. He and fiancee Gelila Assefa welcomed their second son last December 18, 2006. They have named the baby Alexander Wolfgang Puck. He weighed 7 pounds and 3 ounces at birth.
Puck and Assefa now have two children together, both of them boys. They named their older child Oliver, who was born in July, 2005.
The Austrian chef also has two other children from his previous marriage to Barbara Lazaroff, his business partner. Again both of the children were boys.
Wolfgang Puck must feel like he's on top of the world. A new son, loving family and business is going great. The latest addition to his restaurants, Cut, is so popular it is hard to get reservations to eat there!
There really isn't much more that he can ask for. Now that's a truly a great way to end the year.

Gordon Ramsey has taken time out from his busy schedule and prepared Christmas dinner for 800 British soldiers stationed at Helmand province, Afghanistan. This truly was hell's kitchen and by far one of the toughest challenges that this famous restaurateur has ever had to face.
The event was organized by the Daily Mirror. In his interview, Chef Ramsey said,
"It was well worth it to see the look on the guys' faces when they came into the dining tent. It was absolutely brilliant. I'm only sorry I couldn't do this for more of the men and women from the armed forces who are out here."
Truly it made for a great christmas meal. If you can't have your mother's turkey at least you get a fantastic turkey feast courtesy of a world famous chef. Not bad at all for a christmas present. It makes being away from home at least a bit more palatable, even if only for one night.

Are you tired of having turkey for christmas dinner? You are not the only one. Traditions are great but every now and then it is nice to have a change. Turkey at thanksgiving is enough for some.
Instead of taking out the turkey, just add a few dishes as alternatives. You can try Rachel Ray's Christmas Pasta for one. It is loaded with all sorts of meat, perfect for those who don't want fowl or fish. You don't even need to worry about any leftovers. This dish just tastes better with every reheat. Do note Rachael Ray's reminder: cook only as much pasta as needed. That comes to about half a pound for every 3 people.
If you really want to keep the turkey off the table this year, how about some of Giada de Laurentiis' Spicy chicken instead? It's an easy dish to make that doesn't take too much work to cook and it adds a little kick to your christmas meal.
Here are the recipes for these two dishes:
Rachael Ray's Christmas Pasta
1/4 pound pancetta, thick cut, chopped into small bits (Italian cured pork, ask at deli counter)
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 pound bulk hot Italian sausage
1 pound combined ground beef, pork and veal
4 cloves garlic, crushed
1 medium carrot, peeled and finely chopped
1 rib celery, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
1 cup good quality dry red wine
1 cup prepared beef stock, paper container or canned
2 (32-ounce) cans chunky style crushed tomatoes
Handful chopped flat-leaf parsley
1/4 teaspoon (a couple of pinches) allspice or cinnamon
Coarse salt and black pepper
2 pounds penne rigate, cooked to al dente
Grated Pecorino Romano, as an accompaniment
Fresh, crusty bread, for mopping
Heat a deep pot over medium-high heat. Add pancetta and brown to render the fat. Transfer pancetta to paper towels to drain. To the pan add the oil, and the meats and brown and crumble them for 5 minutes. Stir in garlic, and pancetta bits.Chop carrot, celery, and onions near the stove and add to the pot as you work. Cook vegetables with meat 5 minutes and add wine. Cook for 1 minute; add stock and tomatoes to the pot.
Stir in parsley, allspice, or cinnamon and season sauce with salt and pepper, to taste. Bring sauce to a boil, reduce heat to medium low, and cook 10 to 15 minutes, minimum, before serving. Reheated sauce only improves.
Toss pasta (cook off only as much pasta as you need at the time: half a pound for every 3 people) with a couple of ladles of sauce to coat, then top bowl with extra sauce. Top pasta with lots of cheese and pass bread at the table
Giada de Laurentiis' Spicy Chicken
4 chicken thighs with skin and bones
2 chicken breasts with skin and bones, halved crosswise
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons Chili Oil, recipe follows
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1/2 cup kalamata olives, pitted, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup pitted, coarsely chopped green olives
4 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley leaves
1 1/2 tablespoons drained capers
2/3 cup dry white wine
Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a heavy large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes per side. Remove the skillet from the heat. Stir in the garlic, olives, 3 tablespoons of parsley and capers. Add the wine. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Cover and simmer until the chicken is just cooked through, turning occasionally, about 10 minutes.Transfer the chicken mixture to a platter. Spoon the sauce over. Sprinkle with the remaining 1 tablespoon of parsley and serve.
Chili Oil:
2 cups olive oil
4 teaspoons dried crushed red pepper flakesCombine the oil and crushed red pepper flakes in a heavy small saucepan. Cook over low heat until a thermometer inserted into the oil registers 180 degrees F, about 5 minutes.
Remove from heat. Cool to room temperature, about 2 hours. Transfer the oil and pepper flakes to a 4-ounce bottle. Seal the lid. Refrigerate up to 1 month.
Yield: 2 cups
Prep Time: 2 minutes

It is a funny sounding name for a drink. The first time I heard it I wondered if my uncle was pulling my leg rather like the way the would say eating tomatoes would make your chest hair grow.
Eggnog isn't actually a drink created for a specific holiday. It is a winter drink meaning that it was concocted as a drink that helps warm up a person. In Europe they would call it a posset.
Of the many versions of how this drink got its name, the version that makes the most sense is the one that says eggnog is short for egg and grog in a noggin. Grog is another term for rum and noggin was a kind of mug used for drinks served at the tables in a tavern.
Reference to this drink first appears in the 17th century. It was apparently meant as a drink with which to toast one's health.
No matter what the real story of the eggnog, you will want to try this recipe from Emeril Lagasse. Don't forget to say Bam!
- 8 large eggs, 2 separated
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 2 1/2 cups heavy cream
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg, plus more for garnish
- 3/4 cup bourbon
- 1/4 cup brandy
Combine the 6 whole eggs, 2 egg yolks, sugar, and salt in a medium mixing bowl and whisk together. Heat 2 cups heavy cream with the milk in a large saucepan over medium-low heat. When the cream and milk are hot, ladle about 1 cup into the egg mixture and whisk to incorporate. Pour the egg-milk mixture into the hot cream mixture, and continue to cook, stirring continuously, until the mixture thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove the pan from the stove and strain the custard immediately through a fine-mesh sieve. Allow the custard to cool for 10 minutes before proceeding.
Add the vanilla, nutmeg, bourbon, and brandy to the eggnog and stir well to incorporate. Beat the 2 egg whites to soft peaks in a clean mixing bowl and fold them into the custard base. In a separate bowl, beat the remaining 1/2 cup cream to soft peaks, and fold it into the eggnog as well. Serve warm or cover and refrigerate until chilled, about 1 hour.
Pour into a decorative bowl or pitcher and garnish with nutmeg. Serve in small punch cups or old-fashioned glasses.
The recipe is from Emeril Live: Christmas Holiday Party Episode.

Rachael Ray has surely come a long way. She's gone from teaching how to cook in the supermarket to making 30 minute meals on TV to having her own full one hour show. Not bad for a girl who simply loves food.
How did she do it? She just did what she's always done, talked and cooked. Her personality, energy and boundless curiosity, though was what caught the eye of the Queen of Talk herself, Oprah Winfrey, whose production company, Harpo is behind Rachael Ray's show. Oprah was even a guest on the show, but not on the first day.
As Rachael Ray puts it, it's nice to actually have an audience instead of just talking to the camera and crew. The audience seems to really enjoy her show, especially with all the food that she serves. For those who can't be in the studio, she at least has a great website. She even has her grocery list available so that you can go out and buy everything you need to cook along with her.
The show is about more than just cooking. She talks about various things such as weddings, fashion, shoes, etc. On the first day of her show, she and a fan went skydiving together, which was of course filmed before the show.
Make sure to catch the show. It is fun and light, part talk show, part cooking show. Definitely it is all Rachael Ray.

For most families, a traditional christmas dinner means having turkey even if it isn't on the list of the twelve days of christmas. Turkey just seems to evoke that feeling of feasting and family that makes the meal more special. For some no substitute will do, which is why turkey stays high on the list of featured recipes during the season.
In fact last year, Gordon Ramsey chose 6 turkeys for the christmas special of his show, the F Word, last year. He had named them after six celebrity chefs specifically Delia Ramsey, Nigella Lawson, Jamie Oliver, Gary Rhodes, Anthony Worral and Ainsley Harriot. If you are interested to try Gordon Ramsey's Roast Turkey and Stuffing in a Pan, just click here for the recipe.
If you avoid cooking turkey because it often comes out unevenly cooked, try the advice of Jaime Oliver. Push some stuffing between the breasts and skin of the turkey. This makes the breasts thicker which is will help keep it from drying out. This way the legs and the breast cook at the same pace.

Next in line for Christmas menus to consider is Mario Batali's, the Food Network's, larger than life American-Italian chef. I must say though, that this menu is not typical-Mario, whose recipes I've found not to be the simplest to do in your average home kitchen.
This Christmas menu is actually pretty easy to pull off, in both availability of ingredients and procedure, unlike his Christmas Eve menu, the Seven Fish (also found in his cookbook Holiday Food, pictured above), which is what I would call, classic Mario – delicious, but not exactly easy peasy.
"This menu has all the ingredients for a superb holiday. The dishes indulge and comfort, and they incorporate a little bit of tradition and a lot of play. Best of all, none of these dishes is particularly complicated.
I love to cook for my family at the holidays; it's a special way of showing love and affection. But there's no point if all that cooking actually takes away from time spent with loved ones.
That's why this menu is ideal. Certain components can be prepared ahead of time, and even the final preparations won't leave you feeling as though you've spent the day handcuffed to the stove. It's a celebratory dinner everyone, even the cook, will have energy and desire to enjoy."

For those of us who love reality TV shows or cooking shows in general, the name Gordon Ramsey is well known. The title of his reality TV show Hell's Kitchen really catches people's attention and his temper has left a few people gaping in amazement. Yet, people keep watching this amazing man and so his shows are still on air, in fact you may have caught his other shows The F Word and Ramsey's Kitchen Nightmares.
At 15 years of age, Gordon Ramsey was playing professional soccer for the Glasgow Rangers until he sustained a leg injury. He gave up professional soccer and went back to college, completing an HND course in hotel management.
He first began working in the kitchens in Harvey's in Wandsworth, with Marco Pierre White who is Michelin-starred chef. A couple of years later he moved to the Le Gavroche and worked alongside Albert Roux. Three years later he traded London for France and worked in the kitchens of Guy Savoy and Joel Robuchon. In 1993 Gordon Ramsey became chef of the newly opened Aubergine restaurant. It earned many awards and accolades including two Michelin stars within three years.
Gordon Ramsey also became an author. His book Passion for Flavour was published in 1996. It was followed by Passion for Seafood in 1999. His third book, A Chef for All Seasons was published a year later followed by Just Desserts in 2001. Let's not forget Gordon Ramsey's Secrets which was published in 2003 and there are still more books.
However, that isn't all he is. He is also a restaurateur. His company currently owns and operates nine establishments, one of them in Tokyo and another in Dubai. He opened his very first restaurant wholly owned restaurant, Gordon Ramsey at Royal Hospital Road in 1998. It has been ranked 3 Michelin Stars since 2001.
Gordon Ramsey is a fiery tempered man and a perfectionist. He is also a world renowned chef, a man with a great business acumen, a published author, TV personality and restaurateur.

Anyone who watches the food network knows Bobby Flay. He currently has four shows on the network: Hot off the Grill with Bobby Flay, FoodNation with Bobby Flay, the emmy award nominated Boy Meets Grill and the newest BBQ with Bobby Flay. But being a TV personality and cooking on TV isn't all that Bobby Flay is.
Bobby Flay started cooking at age 17 when he worked in New York's Joe Allen Restaurant. He so impressed the management that Joe Allen personally paid his tuition to the French Culinary Institute. In spie of the exposure though, Bobby Flay didn't go into French cuisine. He found his passion in American southwestern cuisine instead.
He experimented with various dishes in his chosen theme from 1988 to 1990 at the Miracle Grill where he was the executive chef, gathering quite a following. He finally opened the doors of his first restaurant in 1991 – the Mesa Grill. The Mesa Grill was chosen as the best restaurant in 1992 by Gael Green. Now, Bobby Flay has three more restaurants. Bolo, which opened in November 1993, serves dishes that have the unique Spanish flavor combined with American ingredients. The second mesa Grill opened its doors in Caesar's Palace Las Vegas in 2004 and he later opened Bar Americain in New York in the spring of 2005.
In May 1993, Bobby was voted the James Beard Foundation's Rising Star Chef of the Year. This award is given to America's most accomplished chef under the age of 30. That same year the French Culinary Institute honored him with the first Most Oustanding Graduate award.
Bobby Flay is constantly trying to enhance his skills. He competed in Iron Chef Japan against Iron Chef Masaharu Morimoto in 2000 which he lost. That didn't stop him though. He went back for a rematch and won. Bobby Flay is now one of the Iron Chefs in the show Iron Chef America.
Busy man though he is, he has also found the time to write 6 books. His first book, Bold American Food, won the 1995 IACP award for design and has set the style for the next generation of cookbooks. His other books are From My Kitchen to Your Table, Boy Meets Grill, Bobby Flay Cooks American, Boy Gets Grill and Bobby Flay's Grilling for Life.
Iron chef, super chef, restaurateur, author and TV personality, Bobby Flay is fantastic.

Laura gets things going by tricking me… with her trickeries. But eventually we do get to some fun topics this week including—but not limited to:
Oops, something didn't work.
This might be the wrong time to bring up how miraculous a replacement good crabstick is to actual crab. They probably don't have a Japanese version of the show is all I'm saying. But they might have a fish version. I'd watch it if it was hamachi.
I don't know whether to be glad you guys pay so much attention, or....... well, I'll just be glad.
i bet if microsoft did that they'd be called monopolist bast ards only apple is allowed to be that (oh no he di'nt) however the argument that win mobile cant be upgraded because it runs on so many phones is a little strange imo.. what about windows? surely there are a heck of a lot more variants of pcs that windows run on? and windows can be updated just fine
i think thats an issue with win mobile and its achitecture
imo win mobil should be little more than a thin os layer with .net (compact or otherwise) running on top.. that way the ui or almost anything could be updated across a wide range of phones much easier

I stopped off at the vet's office where I got big brother Vlad about 7 months ago. I never wanted to go back there because he was in such terrible shape when I got him, but I was in the area, and something made me want to stop off in there. I went in to ask if they could give me an idea of the date he was actually born. But they coudln't, and then told me they even had two more that were left on their doorstep. I looked and saw these two small kittens in a huge cage, huddled against each other. They were incredibly thin and I knew they hadn't taken care of them, just like they hadn't taken care of Vlad. I couldn't leave them there. I took Kiska and her brother Maks, and took them to my vet. Kiska has a URI and her brother has some skin problem, like mange in dogs. They are both so thin you can fee and feel all of their bones. I don't know what really made me go back to that terrible vet but I'm glad I did, because I would not have found my two new sweeties.

Late Night Fire Rips Through Santa Maria Pallet Storage Company
Fire Officials Investigating Industrial Fire, No Injuries Reported
POSTED: 05:31 AM PST Dec 24, 2013 UPDATED: 09:32 AM PDT Sep 25, 2013
Fire crews put out a large industrial fire in Santa Maria.
Fire officials say the fire broke out around 10 p.m. Tuesday outside a pallet storage company in the 1500 block of Betteravia Road.
A Santa Maria Fire Department official said several stacks of pallets as well as machinery and vehicles were burned.
Fire crews aggressively attacked the fire with large hand lines in an effort to control the flames and stop their rapid progression. They were able to completely knock down the flames about two hours later.
No injuries were reported to residents or firefighters.
The cause of the fire is unknown.

Your 1-4 Atlanta Falcons are hosting a winless Tampa Bay Buccaneers team this Sunday at 1 PM. These Bucs are in so much disarray I don't even know where I would start. Tampa is on the road, starting a midround rookie at quarterback, half the team seems to have a staph infection, the head coach is under criticism for potentially leaking information about their former quarterback Josh Freeman, and probably plenty of other stuff, but I am struggling to feel confident about this game.
Steven Jackson, Roddy White, Akeem Dent, Chase Coffman and Sam Baker did not practice today for the Falcons. #TBvsATL

The Obama administration is changing the way it wants to combat terrorism.
In a new report released Wednesday, the White House advocated fighting the threat more on the local level.
While the administration acknowledges al Qaeda is still a significant and direct threat, it says local communities around the country are best suited to take on violent extremism.
"Violent extremists are targeting their children, families, and neighbors," officials said in the report. "Rather than blame particular communities, it is essential that we find ways to help them protect themselves."
Under the three-pronged plan, the government said it would:
The eight-page plan titled Empowering Local Partners to Prevent Violent Extremism was more than a year in the making. Still, it's is short on specifics and stakes out no new ground on homegrown terrorism.

Letting his usual mask of regal self-confidence slip a little, Boy George showed rare flickers of humility and uncertainty at the start of his latest British comeback tour. Deep into his seventh or eighth life by now in cat terms, the apparently indestructible 52-year-old clothed his impressively svelte new post-rehab figure in a dapper rude-boy suit, designer beard and jaunty outsized hat.
This was the live launch of This is What I Do, George's first full singer-songwriter album in 18 years, which caps a stormy decade of scandal, drugs and prison. Backed by a nine-piece band, including three backing singers

NILES -- Police were on the lookout for a stolen vehicle that was believed to have had a 3-year-old boy in the back seat when it was taken Thursday night, a 911 supervisor confirmed.
Details were sketchy. However, according to police scanner traffic, someone took the vehicle shortly before 11 p.m. in the Niles area.
Police scanner traffic indicated that officers planned to do a car-by-car, and possibly a house-by-house, search.
Police also indicated they planned to search parking lots in case the thieves realized a child was in the vehicle and decided to "dump it," according to scanner traffic.
This is a developing story. Check back for updates.

SILVERHILL, Alabama -- Shirley Stephens will present a history of Silverhill and recollections of Baldwin County during the May 19 meeting of the Baldwin County Historical Society. The meeting, held at Oscar Johnson Park, will begin with a social period at 2 p.m., followed by the program at 2:30.
Stephens serves as the director of the Oscar Johnson Memorial Library and is a longtime member of the town's council. She worked at several post offices throughout Baldwin County for 30 years before retiring in 2012.
Club organizers said the Baldwin County Historical Society was founded in 1923 "to bring citizens of Baldwin County together to ensure the preservation of the rich heritage of this area."

CHARDON, Ohio — The day started early for Dana Stearns.
The manager of operations for Chardon Local Schools was on the road at 3:30 a.m., checking on road and weather conditions to help the district determine if it should have classes.
The verdict: Like most school districts in Northeast Ohio, classes were canceled in Chardon.
That probably makes Stearns a hero to Chardon students, who get another day off after having no classes Monday because of Martin Luther King Jr. Day.
That's not Stearns' goal, of course. His only concern is making sure conditions are safe for students. And while the main highways were in pretty good shape this morning, concerns about drifting on side roads and cold temperatures prompted the cancellation.
"My philosophy is to get the kids into school in good shape," Stearns said. "In the morning, you're asking them to go and stand out by the street (to wait for buses). When it's dark, windy, the snow is blowing, the roads are icy, it becomes a dangerous situation."
The weather conditions might mean a break for students and teachers, but it's keeping plenty of other people busy. Don Clarke, shop manager for O'Connor's Auto Body and Towing Service in Wickliffe, says the shop's 12 tow trucks have been working steadily to help stranded motorists.
"We're up for it," he said. "You work all year to get ready for it."
Clarke said this is a good time of year for towing companies. The cost of removing a car that has slid off a road can start at $90. But even though business is good, it comes with hazards."(The toughest thing) is the wind chill. You can get cold real fast if you're not dressed right for it," he said. "You have to worry about other vehicles coming. You have to be safe. It's always in the back of your mind."
Sgt. Andrew Janu of the Ohio Highway Patrol's Geauga Post said this morning that the patrol has been receiving a "steady" amount of calls, but nothing extraordinary. He said there have been no serious accidents and that road conditions are not too bad. He said by January drivers seem to have adjusted to winter conditions.
"I can't explain it but it usually happens this way," he said.
It probably helps that the Ohio Department of Transportation has 80 crews on the interstates, U.S., and state highways in Lake, Geauga and Cuyahoga counties, said Amanda Lee, public information officer. The crews are pouring salt mixed with a deicing agent because of the extreme cold, Lee said.
"The blowing snow is our biggest challenge," Lee said. "The drivers pass through an area and then 15 minutes later it doesn't look like anyone was there. ... That's the biggest challenge when you're seeing over a foot of snow."
It's those kinds of conditions that factor into Stearns' decision on closing schools ... and he says it ultimately is a judgment call. And while Chardon residents pride themselves on dealing with large amounts of snow, he said it's best to err on the side of caution.
"There's hardy and then there's foolhardy," Stearns said. "I try to leave the fool out of it. ... We make as much of an informed decision as we can. ... We put a lot of effort into it."

Team: Roush Fenway Racing
WHERE HE STANDS: This year's Daytona 500 winner remained atop the Sprint Cup standings for the third straight week after Sonoma. He is 11 points ahead of second-ranked and Roush Fenway Racing teammate Greg Biffle and 14 points in front of third-ranked Dale Earnhardt Jr.
KENTUCKY RECORD: 1 career start, 0 wins, 0 top-5s, 1 top-10, 0 poles. Finished 6th in this race last year, the inaugural Sprint Cup race at the 1.5-mile track just outside Cincinnati.
LOOKING AHEAD: Fresh off Tuesday's announcement that he will not be returning to Roush Fenway Racing for next season, all types of speculation has surfaced, with Kenseth rumored to be going to any number of new teams, including Joe Gibbs Racing, Richard Childress Racing, Petty Motorsports, Penske Racking and Earnhardt Ganassi Racing. Most believe he'll wind up at JGR. Regardless, Kenseth still has 20 more races -- and a potential second Sprint Cup championship to win before he leaves RFR at season's end. Here's his scouting report on Saturday night's race at Kentucky: "I've only raced at Kentucky once now, and we ran pretty competitively there to finish well in last year's race. My comfort level is high going into this weekend, but I'm just not as familiar with the track yet as a lot of the guys who have competed in Nationwide series races there in the past. I'm looking forward to going back to Kentucky this weekend because there were a lot of great fans in the area. There was a lot of great support from the region and I thought it was a great race last year, so I'm looking forward to another great weekend at Kentucky."
LOOKING BACK: While he is typically competitive on road courses, winning on them is a whole other story. That's why it's no surprise Kenseth held his own Sunday at Sonoma and got the best result he could (13th), given the competition and the better ability of some drivers on the twisting track layout.
ETC.: Kenseth completed 100 percent (267) of the 267 laps contested in his one career start at Kentucky. He qualified 13th.
16 GREG BIFFLE, Ford
Team: Roush Fenway Racing
WHERE HE STANDS: After leading the points for 11 straight weeks and then sitting in third place the last two weeks, Biffle edged back closer to the top spot, moving into second place after Sonoma. He trails Roush Fenway teammate and points leader Matt Kenseth by 11 points and is 3 points ahead of third-ranked Dale Earnhardt Jr.
KENTUCKY RECORD: Finished 21st in this race last season.
LOOKING AHEAD: For a guy who typically excels at 1.5-mile tracks, Biffle was nothing more than mediocre in the inaugural Sprint Cup race at Kentucky last year, starting 21st and finishing 21st. He's looking for a much better outing in his sophomore start at the suburban Cincinnati track: "Kentucky is a really fun, flat 1.5-mile track which creates lots of side-by-side racing. The sweeping corners, combined with the flat puts on a great race. Plus Saturday night racing under the lights is always exciting."
LOOKING BACK: Biffle stayed true to form at Sonoma. Typically, when he has a bad outing one year (like 23rd in 2011), he bounces back the following year with a stronger performance, just like he did Sunday, finishing 7th. In his last seven starts at Sonoma, he has two top-5s, two other top-10s and an 11th. Not half bad for a guy who considers himself an average road-course driver.
ETC.: Biffle completed all 267 laps last year.
88 DALE EARNHARDT JR., Chevrolet
Team: Hendrick Motorsports
WHERE HE STANDS: Dropped one position in the standings, from second to third, following Sunday's race at Sonoma. Trails points leader Matt Kenseth by 14 points, is 11 points behind second-ranked Greg Biffle and leads fourth-ranked Jimmie Johnson, his Hendrick Motorsports teammate, by 11 points.

BIRMINGHAM, Alabama - A Tuscaloosa man charged with running an investment scam involving NASCAR memorabilia will go before a federal judge in Birmingham on Thursday.
U.S. Marshals in Alabama arrested Michael Patrick Corrigan, 57, in Tuscaloosa on Tuesday. Corrigan was arrested on an indictment obtained by the U.S. Attorney's Office in Colorado alleging federal mail fraud and wire fraud.
Colorado officials say Corrigan is a former resident of Gunnison County, Colo. A press release issued by Colorado's U.S. Attorney's Office said Corrigan was the registered agent of Racezing Mania Corporation in Crested Butte. The mission of the company was to specialize in race car team sponsorships, custom-die cast car sales and internet marking sales.
In the indictment, federal officials claim that between 2005 and 2008, Corrigan fraudulently solicited investors into his business promising big returns. He falsely told investors he had invested $2 million in the companies and said the businesses would eventually bring in more than $100 million a year. Authorities said that in those three years, Corrigan obtained about $950,000 in investor funds.
Corrigan's hearing is set for 9 a.m. at the federal courthouse in Birmingham, records show.

Two Republicans who have appeared on various versions of the suspected veep short-list – Bobby Jindal and Bob McDonnell – will be on stage in Iowa this week.
While GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney is overseas, his campaign bus will tour Iowa Wednesday through Saturday, campaign aides told The Des Moines Register today.
Jindal, who is in his second term as governor of Louisiana and has been called a Republican rising star, and McDonnell, the first-term governor of the highly-coveted swing state of Virginia, will be on board on Thursday.
The Romney campaign is calling it the "We Did Build This" tour.
Romney will travel through England, Israel and Poland to meet with top political leaders, attend the opening ceremonies of the Olympics, give speeches and visit historical sites Thursday through July 31.
Meanwhile, public try-outs for GOP vice presidential nominee continue. Romney and his aides have been tight-lipped about his possible running mate selection, but speculation in political circles has touched on Jindal, McDonnell, U.S. Sen. Rob Portman of Ohio, former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, U.S. Sen. Kelly Ayotte of New Hampshire, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, U.S. Rep. Paul Ryan of Wisconsin, U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida, former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, and a few others.
If Iowans hope Jindal will reveal whether he thinks he's on Romney's short list, they'll be disappointed. He refers all questions on the topic to the campaign.
In a telephone interview with the Register this evening, Jindal said that at the end of the day, the election won't be about the vice presidential selection.
"This is a very consequential election and it's not going to come down to personalities or speaking styles," Jindal said.
It will come down to the role voters want the federal government to play, how much they want to pay in taxes, and how they want to stimulate the economy – and Romney has the right answers, he said.
Iowa's economy has done better than much of the country, "but even in Iowa you've got fewer people working than when this president was elected," Jindal said. Obama got his big break in Iowa promising hope and change, Jindal said. "It's become divide and blame," he said.
Romney campaign aides said the bus tour in Iowa – a state in the cross-hairs of both campaigns this cycle – will give small business owners the chance to respond to Obama's comment earlier this month that "if you've got a business, you didn't build that."
Obama's campaign is pushing back hard on that line of attack, saying Romney is knowingly twisting his words. The president on Monday said: "I believe with all my heart that it is the drive and ingenuity of Americans to start businesses to lead to their success."
Jindal told the Register he thinks Obama's remark was "very telling."
"Yeah, I think this was an inconvenient comment for the president but it wasn't just one comment," Jindal said. "There have been several times when he has had to say he didn't really mean what he said."
Jindal pointed to Obama's comment earlier this summer that "the private sector is doing fine."
Obama's words show what the president truly thinks – and that he favors "a liberal government-oriented approach," Jindal said.
On Wednesday, the Romney bus will be in Davenport, Cedar Rapids and Des Moines.
On Thursday, McDonnell will be on the bus for stops in Davenport and Coralville. Jindal will jump on board for the Coralville event, as well as stops later in the day at Newton and Des Moines.
Obama's Iowa campaign spokeswoman, Erin Seidler, said Romney's bus tour "based on a warmed over and false line of attack that has already been debunked by independent news organizations and fact-checkers won't help him."
"The fact is that President Obama is committed to creating middle class security by investing in education and innovation to help our economy grow, while responsibly balancing the budget," Seidler said.
In fall 2010, Jindal and McDonnell were part of a contingent of possible 2012 presidential candidates who boosted their national political prominence by campaigning in Iowa for Terry Branstad. (Others who stumped that year for Branstad's return to the governor's office were Romney, Pawlenty, Rick Santorum, Haley Barbour and Ron Paul.)
Just a year after Jindal became the country's first Indian-American governor in 2007, he was in Iowa. He spoke in fall 2008 at a fundraiser for the socially conservative Iowa Family Policy Center (now part of the Family Leader organization).
Iowans weren't very familiar with Jindal just three years ago. An Iowa Poll in November 2009 showed 16 percent of adults here viewed him favorably and 10 percent had unfavorable feelings. Mike Huckabee had the best favorability rating in that poll, with 54 percent, followed by Romney at 40 percent.
Jindal was last in Iowa in late December, pushing for Iowans to vote for Rick Perry, governor of the neighboring state of Texas, in the GOP caucuses. Jindal endorsed Romney in April this year.
So far this year, Jindal has campaigned or fundraised for Romney in Illinois, Utah, Nebraska, Louisiana, Pennsylvania and Ohio.
McDonnell has campaigned for Romney in Virginia, Michigan, South Carolina and Florida. He talks up his state's low unemployment rate and criticizes Obama (on Monday for not visiting Israel). Earlier this year, McDonnell, a staunch abortion opponent, made national news when he signed a law requiring women seeking abortions to first get an abdominal ultrasounds.
Here are the Romney events campaign has announced so far:

Where do I start?
SSBB is the best multiplayer I have ever played. The controls are easy to learn, the action is non stop, and the gameplay never gets old. The graphics are some of the best to be found in any game albeit the simplistic design makes it easier and promotes less detail.
You can play SSBB with three different control styles. I personally like the wii mote only version. Its simpler and faster. But having the controller option was a great idea (how about listening to that EA!).
The story mode is where this game seperates itself. No more is smash brothers just a multiplayer. The story mode is real interesting and makes SSBB a game that you will play a long time after it was bought.
In addition to the story mode you have the Versus mode where you battle against some ridiculous odds and of course the master hand to win characters.
These two compiled with the regular battle mode for friends makes an outstanding game highlighted by free online multiplayer that ensures you always have someone to play with. Great game with good old fashion fun at heart.

Ukip and Tories take three seats each in Eastern region
Ukip and the Conservatives have each won three seats in the Eastern region, with the Lib Dems failing to retain their seat.
Labour has retained their seat in the region.
Conservatives leading in London Assembly
The Conservative party is leading in the polls for London Assembly Constituency seats so far. These results in so far:

Ken Clarke: Lib Dems behind timing of House of Lords reforms
A purely Conservative Government would not be pressing ahead with reform of the House of Lords in this parliament, Justice Secretary Ken Clarke admitted today.
The existing House of Lords is a curious historical anomaly.
We are ready for democracy, I think. All three political parties were in favour of House of Lords reform in their last manifestos.
The Liberals probably have determined the timing. I think doing it now in this parliament has happened because the Liberals are anxious to get on with it.
Blunkett slams Clegg's 'dogs dinner' Lords reform
Labour former home secretary David Blunkett said:
The implementation of Nick Clegg's proposals to change our centuries-old system of parliamentary governance is ill-thought through and will have wide-ranging repercussions.
An elected senator, having been voted in rather than appointed, would not feel bound by the customs and practice that have applied to an unelected chamber - and will undoubtedly come into conflict with the House of Commons.
Meanwhile, the so-called senators will be highly unaccountable - elected to serve non-renewable 15-year terms and unanswerable to the voters in the normal fashion of an elected chamber.
This dog's dinner of a proposal should be thrown out and, in any case, any proposal for a referendum should take place before legislating on the detail and not afterwards.
Government should 'stick to its guns'
Katie Ghose, chief executive of the Electoral Reform Society, said:
We can understand why unelected Lords might have little time for accountability or manifesto commitments. These MPs have no such excuses.
Every one of these wannabe-rebels ran for Parliament on a promise of Lords reform.
Now they seem prepared to sacrifice their own Government's entire legislative programme to bury it.
It sends a strong signal to their constituents that their manifestos weren't worth the paper they were printed on.
The Government is right to stick to its guns. No party went into the last election defending the status quo, and if Lords reform is ever to see the light of day it will require all parties to stay committed.
Miliband 'surprised' at Tory Lords rebellion
Labour leader Ed Miliband said he was firmly behind proposals for a fully elected House of Lords.
He said: "A referendum on the issue is a good idea, and we have said this previously in our manifesto.
"But I don't quite understand why the Government is setting its face against giving the people a say.
"We have made our position in wanting a referendum for a 100% elected House of Lords very clear.
"Am I surprised at the way some Tories have threatened a rebellion against the issue? Look, that's a matter for them and I will leave the Tories' problems to themselves.
"There are lots of more important issues facing our country right now such as health, education and jobs."
Lords reform 'could bring down coalition
Conservative MP Peter Bone said many of his colleagues on the Tory backbenches were dispirited at the prospect of Lords reform being placed at the heart of the Government's agenda in next month's Queen's Speech. He said:
It is a huge problem for the Prime Minister and he knows it's a huge problem.
It certainly could bring the coalition down, though whether it will I don't know.
The one thing the Liberal Democrats are demanding is Lords reform because Nick Clegg has failed on everything else, and if he gets this then he will go down in history as the Liberal leader who achieved something they've been trying to do for 100 years.
Presumably there will be some sort of sweeteners, and the Prime Minister will say we will reach some sort of compromise.
Cameron committed to Lords reform
Downing Street said David Cameron remained committed to reform of the House of Lords.
"Both the Prime Minister and the Deputy Prime Minister are committed to Lords reform," a No 10 spokeswoman said.
She added that all members of the Government would be expected to support the legislation when it comes to Parliament.
"If it is Government policy, one expects the Government to support it," she said.
She said ministers were "not persuaded" by calls for a referendum on the issue.
House of Lords 'stuffed with dinosaurs'
A senior Liberal Democrat peer has warned Conservatives that they must back coalition plans to reform the House of Lords - despite a threatened revolt by Tory backbenchers.
Senior Lib Dem peer Lord Oakeshott insisted today that the plan was part of the coalition agreement and should be supported by MPs of both parties. He said:
"Our vast unelected House of Lords is overstuffed with complacent dinosaurs.
"Electing both Houses of Parliament is a simple democratic principle, it's in all three major parties' general manifestos and the coalition agreement.
"So all coalition MPs should back it - and Labour mustn't drag their feet on this long overdue reform."

For more than 20 years the people of Maui County have supported a solid waste resource management regime built on a 3R philosophy - reduce, reuse, recycle. As a result, we now divert more than 40 percent of our waste stream from our landfills. Given the fact that the national average is near 33 percent, many Mauians feel a sense of justifiable pride in this accomplishment.
We have achieved this accomplishment by creating a consortium of for-profit recycling companies, community organizations and Maui County government. Overall guidance has come from the county's Integrated Solid Waste Management Plan. Since the plan was developed in 1992 it has been updated on a regular basis. The current version was developed by a diverse group - some representatives were members of the community appointed by then-Mayor Charmaine Tavares, others were paid consultants, while still others were county employees. The advisory panel of 16 community members represented the visitor industry, nonprofit environmental organizations (including Maui Recycling Group), Maui's recycling industry, agricultural operators, economic development organizations, representatives from the islands of Molokai and Lanai, and others. They were assisted by a Mainland-based engineering/consulting firm. Their work included visiting several Mainland venues in order to learn about how other communities were choosing to deal with their solid waste resource management issues.
These community leaders drafted a revision of Maui's ISWMP that called for the county to achieve a 60 percent landfill diversion rate prior to consideration of a waste-to-energy component. The rationale behind this recommendation is that our existing 3R approach and programs represent our best opportunity to achieve our goals. In addition, this approach also provides for more jobs, more revenue to the county and more economic growth and, no less important, a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. In short, recycling and its associated activities are best for our economy and our environment.
Rather than focus on the policies and programs which have the best chance to achieve the mandated 60 percent diversion rate, the current administration has chosen to abandon that goal. Instead, its choice is to commit to a single WTE program/technology operated by a company which promises more recycling and a WTE component. The administration claims this will result in an 85 percent diversion rate and will be environmentally positive and economically productive. The primary element of the administration's proposal is a organics management system, which will essentially do no more than the various programs already in place at the landfill.
In addition, the company proposes to develop an as-yet-unspecified system to process all of our mixed waste, rather than focusing on the recyclables and produce a "refuse derived fuel" (The Maui News, April 26) for which there are currently no markets on Maui.
This decision has the potential to derail our entire solid waste management strategy. It also threatens our existing recyclers and will cause us to lose jobs and the revenues that are currently generated by the economic activity spawned by our recycling industry. According to scientific reports and estimates, recycling often produces 10 to 20 percent more jobs than WTE. If Maui proceeds with a WTE program, it will needlessly expose our community to the loss of dozens of high-paying jobs with Maui's recycling pioneers, including Aloha Recycling, Maui EKO Compost, Pacific Biodiesel and others.
Representatives of Maui's recycling community have always worked closely and cooperatively with all elements of our community, including several successive county administrations and county councils. That's how we have helped Maui rack up accomplishments that make us the envy of the rest of Hawaii. That's how we intend to continue.

NEW YORK - Three fire union officials were arrested Friday after a scuffle with police at ground zero, where firefighters denounced cutbacks in the number of people searching for remains.
"Mayor Giuliani, let us bring our brothers home," read one sign at the rally near the the collapsed World Trade Center towers, where 343 firefighters and 23 New York City police officers were among the thousands of people lost Sept. 11.
The arrests came when firefighters on a protest march tangled with police who initially refused to allow them into the sealed-off area that is hallowed ground to so many. After a few minutes, the firefighters continued on their march and held a minute of silence at the site. Police said there were a number of arrests for disorderly conduct but could not be more specific. Those in custody included three top union officials, said Peter Gorman, president of the Uniformed Fire Officers Association. The group marched a few blocks to personally deliver their message at City Hall. Mayor Rudolph Giuliani had announced the staffing cutbacks earlier this week, citing worker safety.
Firefighter Bob McGuire, whose nephew Richard Allen was among those missing in the rubble, said remains had been loaded into trash bins.
"I don't want him to end up in a Dumpster," McGuire said.
McGuire denied speculation that firefighters wanted to stay at the site to pad their checks.
"This has nothing to do with overtime," he said.
"Do the right thing!" the protesters chanted as they listened to union leaders give speeches on bullhorns next to a chain link fence decorated with an American flag.
The firefighters, joined by members of other unions, have worked virtually nonstop at the scene since the towers collapsed.
Giuliani said he wants no more than 24 firefighters and 24 police officers at ground zero at any one time.
The firefighters' union says it fears that would turn the recovery effort into a "full-time construction scoop-and-dump operation."
"That site, besides containing roughly 250 firefighter bodies, also contains many, many, many civilian bodies as well," said Michael Carter, vice president of the Uniformed Firefighters Association.

I shot this session with another photographer friend, Leah Langley. This couple wanted a nautical themed maternity session to match their son's nautical nursery, and it was stellar. Tampa Bay, a 60 foot yacht and sorry ladies, but you're going to hate this woman. Drop dead gorgeous with perfect round baby bump. (I certainly didn't look like this at 30 weeks pregnant). I only wished we had more time.
After playing outside, Stephanie wanted some more intimate photos indoors. We placed her in a window and played on a third story balcony. (Don't worry, there's a roof that you can't see just on the other side.)
