Foreclosed Homes Equal Nearly a Quarter of National Home Sales
Home buyers and speculators have continued to scoop up foreclosed homes at discount prices, according to the online foreclosure tracking firm RealtyTrac. The company reports that of total home sales in the second quarter of this year, 24 percent of those sales were homes in some stage of foreclosure. And those foreclosed homes sold at prices 26 percent below average sales prices of homes not in foreclosure.
From April to June, nearly 250,000 homes in some stage of foreclosure were sold, a 5 percent increase from the first three months of this year.
"While foreclosure sales increased in the second quarter, non-foreclosure sales increased even more, spurred on by the homebuyer tax credit that expired during the quarter," said James Saccacio, chief executive officer of RealtyTrac in a press release. "That had the net effect of lowering foreclosure sales as a percentage of total sales during the quarter, but that may be a temporary dip as the removal of the tax credit could drive more buyers back" to foreclosed and bank-owned properties.
Sales of foreclosed homes in Nevada represented nearly 56 percent of all home sales in the state. Arizona had the second highest number with 47 percent of homes sold in some stage of foreclosure. California was third with 43 percent of sold homes in foreclosure.
In New York, just over 7 percent of sold homes were in some stage of foreclosure, at prices 16 percent below average sales prices. In New Jersey, foreclosed homes equaled nearly 15 percent of sales during the second quarter, at a discount of 34 percent from average prices.
Previously, RealtyTrac reported that just under 340,000 homes were in some stage of foreclosure in August.

Driving Technologies That Will Delight Customers
Posted by JP Gownder on November 25, 2013
- 37 Recommendations

Businesses that thrive and grow in the age of the customer are obsessed with customer delight: the most successful companies are reinventing themselves to systematically understand and serve increasingly powerful customers. This business reality creates new imperatives for everyone inside an organization, and infrastructure & operations (I&O) professionals are not immune. So the question becomes, how does I&O participate in the transformation of the enterprise toward customer obsession?
The answer to this question is important, because technology's role in business is rapidly changing -- from a world in which Information Technology (IT) enabled a company to function more efficiently, to a world of Business Technology (BT), which we define as technology, systems, and processes to win, serve, and retain customers. Yet customer-facing technologies aren't always (or even often) the traditional role of I&O. So how can I&O participate?
How about starting with a simple dictum? Spend more time on technologies that will inspire and delight customers, either directly or indirectly. To start this journey, I'd like you to watch this short video of how a digital billboard has gone viral:
This display, in London's Piccadilly Circus, leverages surveillance technology along with smart billboard technlogy to interact with the planes flying overhead. As you can imagine, the billboard stops people in their tracks, serving as a powerful customer-facing tool for British Airways. Assembling an initiative like this one requires a marketer's mind -- and an I&O professional's command of technology.
We're seeing other examples of how I&O can extend its purview into customer-relevant technologies. For example:
- Tablets revolutionize sales. My recent blog post and report show how sales reps delight customers and prospects when they enter meetings equipped with tablets.
- Retail brings digital into the store. Retailers and other enterprises with customer-facing spaces can break down the walls between the online and physical worlds, designing retail experiences that "recognize" customers as they walk into the store.
- Wearable technology in healthcare empowers better patient experiences. Not all customer-facing examples need to be flashy. Nurses spend a great deal of time looking for patients' veins when setting up an IV or drawing blood. When they miss... ouch! It detracts from the patient's experience. So Epson and Evena Medical designed a smart glasses application that allows nurses to see through a patient's skin to see where veins actually lie.
In each instance, I&O professionals are providing devices, applications, and the network infrastructure to power them -- all in service of customer delight. Whether it's digital signage, tablets, in-store technology, or wearables, I&O can be -- and must be -- a critical partner to the business in designing incredible customer experiences.
We're constantly on the lookout for great examples of how I&O designs, empowers, and manages customer-facing Business Technology. Is your company a leader in this area? If so, let me know.

Hi Mr. Gownder,
That was a really good definition for how IT has evolved to BT. We at Unify have embraced exactly the "Joy of Use" requirement that are designed to "inspire and delight" users. This is exactly what #ProjectAnsible is about. Here a link to where you can view a video about how Project Ansible is being designed with first the user in mind. http://www.unify.com/projectansible/us
The ultimate goal - make life better for users, based on how they work, who they work with, and the tools they use. Several "Personas" have been developed based on 2 years of joint research with the frog design group (yes that really is the name of the design team).
Thank you

Cheddar and Sage Biscuits
The cheddar and sage bring a distinctive flavor to these biscuits.
- Prep:
- Total Time:
- Yield: Makes 12
Source: Everyday Food, December 2009
- 4 cups all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled), plus more for working
- 2 tablespoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 teaspoons coarse salt
- 2 cups grated sharp white cheddar (5 1/2 ounces)
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh sage
- 3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces
- 1 1/2 cups low-fat buttermilk
Preheat oven to 450 degrees. In a food processor, pulse flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add cheddar and sage and pulse to combine. Add butter and pulse until mixture is the texture of coarse meal, with a few pea-size pieces butter remaining. Add buttermilk and pulse just until combined, 2 to 3 times.
Turn dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and knead just until it comes together. With a floured rolling pin, roll dough to a 3/4-inch thickness. With a floured 2 3/4-inch round biscuit cutter, cut out 12 biscuits (reroll and cut scraps).
Place biscuits on a baking sheet, 1 1/2 inches apart, and bake until puffed and golden, 12 to 15 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Do You Wear These Funky Toe Shoes?
They are called Skele-Toes. I think they're so weird!
I have some friends and their kids that love them. They just feel so weird to me. I just can't get into them. They're for jogging or running and they feel like you're in bare feet. They sort of a sneaker feel to them on the outside. Oh, I just think they're so silly!
Do you wear these? Would you ever?

With second expansion the prerequisite list of any rule under goes a second expansion (the first expansion happens when the Makefile is read) just before the rule is used. By escaping any $ signs with a second $ it\'s possible to use GNU Make automatic variables in the prerequisite list.
Using a marker file for each directory and second expansion you can create a Makefile that automatically creates directories only when necessary with a simple addition to the prerequisite list of any rule:
OUT = /tmp/out
all: $(OUT)/foo.o
$(OUT)/%.o: %.c $$(@D)/.f
@$(COMPILE.C) -o $@ $<
mkdir -p $(dir $@)
touch $@
.PRECIOUS: %/.f
The pattern rule used to make .o files has a special prerequisite $$(@D)/.f which uses the second expansion feature to obtain the directory in which the target (from $@ using the D modifier) is to be built.
That directory will be built by the %/.f pattern rule that knows how to build a .f file (and the containing directory). Notice that the .f files are marked as precious so that GNU Make will not delete them. Without this line the .f files are considered to be useless intermediate files and would be cleaned up by GNU Make on exit.
That's enough ways to create directories in GNU Make. I\'ll be back in August with a new column about GNU Make and parallelism.

I have a menu list on an update record page that I am trying to pre populate with the number in that database field. I'd like to make the initial value equal to $row_rs_experience['duration_days']
This is the list menu code I have at present
<?php $days=$row_rs_experience['duration_days']; ?>
<select name="duration_days" class="formrightcolumnskinny" id="duration_days"> <?php for( $i=0; $i<=365; $i++ ){?><option value="<?php echo$i;?>" selected="selected"><?php echo $days;?>
<?php ;} ?> </option>
That's the closest I've got. It does select the right value, which is great but when I open up the menu I just get a list only containing that same value - 365 times. Anyone know where I am going wrong?
Thanks RNEL That worked perfectly.
For anyone else who's interested, here's the solution RNEL came up with:
<select name="duration_hours" class="formrightcolumnskinny" id="duration_hours"><?php for( $i=0; $i<=23; $i++ ){ ?> <option value="<?php echo $i; ?>"<?php echo ($days==$i ? ' selected="selected"' : ''); ?>> <?php echo $i; ?> </option><?php } ?></select>
yeah sure, thanks
ok thanks... let me know where did you set this
nope... the codes where did you set this $row_rs_experience['duration_days']
$row_rs_experience = mysql_fetch_assoc($rs_experience);
while ($row_rs_experience = mysql_fetch_assoc($rs_experience)) {
$days[] = $row_rs_experience['duration_days'];
also, free your result
That just removes all data from the page, so none of the rs_experience data is recovered. (the list doesn't work either).
ok. is there any chance you can display your full code here, I guess it's just on a single page
It's okay, that bit does work$row_rs_visible['duration_days'] is equal to 1 if it isn't equal to 1 the whole menu item is not displayed.
In this instance $row_rs_visible['duration_days'] is equal to 1 so the menu item is displayed and it works perfectly but I just can't get it to display set to the value rs_experience['duration_days']
It doesn't display anything because $row_rs_visible['duration_days'] is not equal to 1. Try this, let's just see if there's any values that will be returned.
find and make this condition
if ($row_rs_visible['duration_days']==1) {
like this
//if ($row_rs_visible['duration_days']==1) {
then we'll see what to do next
Crikey - not sure what you mean. Here's the entire chunk that deals with that bit. Does this help?
<?php // SHOW/HIDE duration_daysif ($row_rs_visible['duration_days']==1) { // set variable $days to pre-populate drop down menu with initial value$days=$row_rs_experience['duration_days'];?>
<?php echo $row_rs_input_titles['duration_days']; ?>:

 <select name="duration_days" class="formrightcolumnskinny" id="duration_days"> <?php for($i=0; $i<=365; $i++ ){?><option value="<?php echo $i;?>" selected="selected"><?php echo $days[$i]; ?>
<?php ;} ?> </option> </select>
<?php }// SHOW/HIDE duration_days CODE ENDS ?>
ok. how did you loop through it all?
no not that... the codes before that
I just echoed out $row_rs_experience['duration_days'] to make sure and it contains the correct value each time.
$days=$row_rs_experience['duration_days'];?>
<?php echo $row_rs_input_titles['duration_days']; ?>:

 <select name="duration_days" class="formrightcolumnskinny" id="duration_days"> <?php for($i=0; $i<=365; $i++ ){?><option value="<?php echo $i;?>" selected="selected"><?php echo $days[$i]; ?>
<?php ;} ?> </option> </select>
Tried that. I just get a huge empty list - no values at all?
ok thanks. please show your code related to this
assuming you fetched $days correctly
<option value="<?php echo $i;?>" selected="selected"><?php echo
$days[$i]; ?>
notice [$i] and why this exists on all options? selected="selected"
Can I PM you with it?
$colname_rs_visible = "-1";if (isset($category)) { $colname_rs_visible = $category;}mysql_select_db($database_con_onedatabase, $con_onedatabase);$query_rs_visible = sprintf("SELECT * FROM input_titles_visible WHERE category = %s", GetSQLValueString($colname_rs_visible, "text"));$rs_visible = mysql_query($query_rs_visible, $con_onedatabase) or die(mysql_error());$row_rs_visible = mysql_fetch_assoc($rs_visible);$totalRows_rs_visible = mysql_num_rows($rs_visible);

Fernando Torres believes Chelsea's squad are good enough to win the Quadruple this season.
The Blues begin a run of four games in 10 days tomorrow with a Premier League match against Cardiff and then face Schalke in the Champions League, Manchester City in the top flight and Arsenal in the Capital One Cup.
Despite some patchy performances, Jose Mourinho's side are only two points behind League leaders Arsenal and Liverpool and can go level with Schalke in their Champions League qualifying group with a victory in Germany on Tuesday.
The balance of the squad has come under scrutiny but when Torres was asked what he hoped to win this season, he said: "To win everything and it can be realistic. We have a great squad and we have to think positively.
"The main thing is to go step by step. We can't say we're just going to focus on the Premier League and Champions League.
"We should just think about winning the next game, in winning the next three points, scoring goals, working hard and doing well when we have the chance.
"We want to finish with a trophy. The Premier League would be great, the Champions League even better, both of them massive and a few cups, why not?"
While Chelsea have yet to convince in the Premier League, where none of their strikers has scored, Arsenal and Liverpool have been praised for their play.
Torres, who is struggling to recover from a knee injury, feels it is too early to worry about the table and added: "We'll see where we are in January. That will give you a clearer idea if you will be fighting for the Premier League but we are ready to win it, of course.
"It's very difficult. The league is different than any other. It's more competitive, there are not just two or three teams, there are five or six all with the chance if not to win, to qualify for the Champions League."

Specialty Stores
Best when: You're a beauty addict who wants a one-stop shop for staples as well as new products that you might have not even heard of. (Eyelash conditioner, anyone?)
National chains, like Sephora, Ulta, C.O. Bigelow, and Space NK, showcase thousands of lotions, potions, makeup lines, and tools in enticing, easy-to-access displays. Their goal? Getting you to make impulse buys. Your gain? The opportunity for major sampling. Bonus: Some have in-store salons.
Shopping Tips
Sample away. Indulge in Sephora's 3 Free Samples policy. With every purchase, you're entitled to (you guessed it) three freebies. This happens automatically online, but it's true in the stores as well. All you have to do is ask.
Scan the checkout counter for travel-size products. Specialty stores are the best place to get travel-size versions of high-end products at equally diminutive prices—an economical option if you crave a lot of variety.
If you don't like it, return it. Let's face it—no matter how big the bargain, you aren't saving anything if a product sits in your drawer unused. Letting you try before you buy is one way that specialty stores help you avoid mistake purchases, but they tend to have generous return policies, too. At Sephora and Ulta, bring even opened products back within 60 days with a receipt for full credit.
Swing by the salon. Specialty stores may offer beauty treatments for less than they cost at the local salon. In Ulta salons, for example, you'll find hair-color services starting at $55 and buy-one, get-one-free facials.

-5 in va now. Been awhile. More wood in the stove!
The wife and I are getting ready for work, temp is -7, wind chill is -34!
I know what you mean TWA, remember we had 6+ inches of snow the other day with temps in the upper teens, it warmed up into the low 50s for a day and it's almost gone now, only the piled up stuff is left.
Over night it dropped down to -2, have no idea what the wind chill was, radio was saying it was suppose to be -25.
This sunday it's going to be in the low to mid 50s again.
Listening to the news and they showed 7 in Atlanta GA
It is a chilly 37 degrees this AM on the west coast of Florida
It was 9 deg when I got up at 6 am. That's cold for here. Pipes froze at work, didn't know that until I finished my morning constitutional and couldn't flush. Put a HAZMAT sign up on the restroom door. Couldn't find a "SHITTERS FULL" sign.
Thanks sniper. One of my favorite movies.
Coils,, looks like we're both getting the same exact fronts coming through, our weather and conditions have been identical. Maybe somewhat colder by a few degrees, but not much diffrence.
To me cold weather is really no big deal, I've lived in the NE for over 60 years, so it's just like any other day to me,,I just dress accordingly for ,,,,Whatever happens !!
Do you guys get the muggy stuff in the summer in PA too,,we sure do being so close to Champlain. Sometimes it gets so muggy in the summer you just can't shed enough duds to stay cool,,,,no matter what you do. Almost as bad as the Fayeteville NC area where I lived for 7 years. It was pretty bad there too.
I know what you mean about the cold weather twa, I don't mind it until it get's windy :D
It actually felt decent Wednesday night, it was in the lower 20s and no wind, a hell of a lot better then Monday night.
Yeah it gets muggy or humid here too during the summer, but it varies from year to year, sometimes the summer starts out like that and other times it later in the summer. But this is a good example of climate change over the years, I remember most of the 80s it would always be humid in August, then it slowly started getting earlier in the year in the late 80s early 90s, now it varies through the summer.

'Golden Slumber' Trailer
Posted on Tuesday, December 28th, 2010 by Germain Lussier
When most people hear Beatles songs, it makes them feel warm and nostalgic. Well, imagine that feeling wrapped in a whodunit conspiracy film like The Fugitive and you've got Golden Slumber, one of the biggest hits of Fantastic Fest 2010. The Japanese film directed by Yoshihiro Nakamura had its world premiere at the Los Angeles Film Festival last summer and still doesn't have a U.S. distributor. Still, you've got to keep this one on your radar because it's everything you go to the movies for. Watch the trailer and read more about the movie after the jump. Read More »

Kenny Rowe Scouting Report
|Oregon Ducks
|Jersey Number:
|Height & Weight:
|6'3 - 232 lbs.
2011 NFL Draft Prospect Scouting Report:
Kenny Rowe, OLB, Oregon
As an upperclassman Rowe turned into more than simply a specialist; he finally stepped into a major role. As a junior he tallied 43 tackles, 15.0 tackles-for-loss, 11.5 sacks and forced three fumbles. The opposing offense is keeping an eye on him during 2010 and through the regular season Rowe has not put up quite as impressive of numbers. However, he still leads the Ducks with 6.0 sacks and has added 15.5 tackles-for-loss and four forced fumbles.
Rowe's lack of experience at linebacker is an issue and his 6-3, 232 pound frame is not big enough to play defensive end in the NFL. He pretty much does not fit into a position. He lacks the strength of a down lineman and the speed of a linebacker. That will certainly hurt his stock, but Rowe is a big hitter who can come in on passing downs and get some big hits on the quarterback.

|More information:
A novel on Thermopylae, the 480 BC battle which went down in history as an example of heroism. For three days a small force of Greeks defended a narrow pass from a huge Persian army. Lots of detail on Spartan training and fighting techniques. Thousands of years ago, Herodotus and Plutarch immortalized Spartan society in their histories; but today, little is left of the ancient city or the social structure of this momentous culture. One of the few antiquarian marks of the civilization that has survived lies scores of miles away from Sparta, at a narrow Greek mountain pass called Thermopylae. It was there that three hundred of Sparta's finest warriors held back the invading millions of the Persian empire and valiantly gave their lives in the selfless service of democracy and freedom. A simple engraved stone marks their burial ground. Inspired by this stone and intrigued by the lore of Sparta, author Steven Pressfield has brilliantly combined scholarship with storytelling. Narrated by the sole survivor of the epic battle--a squire in the Spartan heavy infantry--Gates of Fire is a mesmerizing depiction of one man's indoctrination into the Spartan way of life and death, and of the legendary men and women who gave the culture an immortal gravity. Culminating in the electrifying and horrifying epic battle, Gates of Fire weaves history, mystery, and heartbreaking romance into a literary page-turner that brings the Homeric tradition into the twenty-first.

I think you should have put a much larger percentage in fixed income securities. You should talk to a financial advisor about the right asset mix for your age
11:52 [Comment From George]
What do you know about CareVest as an investment? the long term and short term results seem too good to be true.
11:52 [Comment From Gordon Pape]
Can't comment, don't know it
11:53 [Comment From Gordon Pape]
would add if it seems too good to be trrue probably is
11:53 Chantaie ROB web editor - Mr. Pape. Given the volatile markets what do you think ivestors should be focused on in order to manage risk to their overall porfolios? Switching over to gold or other safe havens or riding out the current downturn?
11:55 [Comment From Gordon Pape]
I am not a big believer in doing nothing unless you were properly prepared going in and have a portfolio that you are very comfortable with. Remember that the crash of 08-09 took many months to unfold. If you are not happy with where you are now, make changes. If you are content, then ride it out
11:56 [Comment From Bonnie P]
I'm new to investing and the recent market makes me want to hide my money under the mattress. What would the safest investment be for me?
11:56 [Comment From Gordon Pape]
Well under the mattress may not be bad for now if you have a good security system. Seriously, a high interest savings account and some short-term bond funds would work for the time being
11:57 [Comment From Guest]
You've mentioned fixed income assets several times in response to questions - what does this asset class include?
11:58 [Comment From Gordon Pape]
Bonds, GICs, debentures. Anything with a fixed interest rate and a maturity date. Bond funds and ETFs technically don't qualify but the securities they hold do
11:59 [Comment From Bobblehead]
Will everything be okay? Or is the sky really falling? I'm in my early thirties and feel as though saving for retirement is going to be impossible.
12:00 [Comment From Gordon Pape]
Well the sky hasn't fallen yet. I think things will be tough for a while, perhaps a couple of years, but we have lived through hard times in the past. You're young and there will be plenty of brighter days ahead
12:00 Chantaie ROB web editor - Those are all the questions we have time for. Thanks for taking the time to answer so many today, Mr Pape. Sorry we didn't have time to get to everyone's questions, there were quite a few. Any last words, Mr. Pape?
12:01 [Comment From Gordon Pape]
Only to thank everyone and to say that staying calm does not necessarily mean doing nothing. It means acting rationally and preparing for what may be a difficult period. By the way, I hope I am wrong about that
12:02 Chantaie ROB web editor - Thanks again. And thank you everyone who participated.

text: 1)Still think we're more talented and better than the Heat. 2)Missed all of our shots and relied too much on the jumper. Jumpshots wouldn't fall because of fatigue. Solution: Play the bench, at least in the regular season. 3)Relied too much on the jumper. Joe D. said he would look for guys who can score points in the paint lets hope he gets those type of players on the Pistons bench next year. Flip has to get plays that gets guys scoring inside as well. 4) Riley is already a better coach than Flip and it didn't help that Riley could get everyone prepared before the series and Flip couldn't. I think the team can win with Flip if Flip gains the teams respect. The guy has to find different methods, sit these guys down if they do something wrong (Sheed getting late to the game), and so on. we have a good shot at this if flip gets everyone on the same page and he learns what he did right and what he did wrong.

Rafael Benitez turned his attentions to Thursday's Europa League quarter-final with Rubin Kazan after holders Chelsea advanced to the FA Cup semi-finals at the expense of Manchester United.
Chelsea face Manchester City in the FA Cup last four on April 14 after Demba Ba's spectacular volley earned a 1-0 quarter-final replay win at Stamford Bridge, which means United's wait to lift the trophy is extended to at least 10 years.
For Chelsea, Champions League qualification is imperative but a trophy is also desirable.
And Benitez, an unpopular appointment at Stamford Bridge due to his prior association with Liverpool, believes the Blues are well placed to finish the season on a high.
"My priority is the top four and trying to win the next game, in the Europa League," the Spaniard said. "The race for the top four will be until the end of the season. We're in the top four with one game in hand so we're in a very good position.
"We're in the semi-finals of the FA Cup, quarter-finals of the Europa League. It's a great season at the moment. It could be even better."
Chelsea's challenge suffered a blow when left-back Ashley Cole suffered a hamstring injury in the first half of the defeat of United.
Cole faces "at least two weeks" out, Benitez said, meaning the Wembley semi-final with City could come too soon for the England international.
Cole's injury is the latest defensive blow, with England defender Gary Cahill out for "another 15 days at least", Benitez said.
Chelsea have won three of the last four FA Cups - the only blip when City lifted the trophy in 2011.
Now City stand in the Blues' way of a May 11 Wembley final against Wigan or Millwall.
Benitez said: "It couldn't be more difficult. This year everything is so difficult.
"If you want to win, you have to beat the best teams. United is one of the best, City is another one. It's another challenge."
While Ba's volley was the decisive moment, a Petr Cech save from Javier Hernandez was also crucial.
The Mexican met a Danny Welbeck cross but Cech was somehow able to divert the ball over.
Had Hernandez met the ball with his head, rather than his shoulder, the result might have been different.
Benitez added: "It was a great save, with a great goal."

Luke walked into Java and was surprised to see Jeff standing behind the counter instead of Noah.
"Hey Luke, what can I get you?" Jeff asked friendly.
"Uh.. my boyfriend. I thought Noah was working today? It is Tuesday right? Or am I just going absolutely crazy?" Luke said confused and looked at his phone as if that would answer his question.
"No you're not going crazy, don't worry. Noah asked me to switch swifts. He said he needed time off today." Jeff explained. "Didn't he tell you?"
"No.. he uh must've forgotten or something, thanks, bye Jeff." Luke said as he turned around and walked out of the cafe and dialled Noah's number.
"Hey babe" Noah said answering his phone.
"Noah where are you? I just came from Java but Jeff said you switched shifts with him." Luke said worried. "Are you ok?"
"Yes I'm fine, I was just having coffee with my dad at Al's." Noah said reassuringly.
"Ugh.. So how is Dusty these days? When are you going to change your name to Donovan?" Luke said sarcastically.
Noah sighed and got up from his seat and walked outside after gesturing to Dusty what he was going to do.
"Luke I know you still don't like him very much but he is my dad. Can't you at least try to get along with him? For me." Noah pleaded.
"I'm trying Noah, trust me I am. But it's hard to get along with the man that almost tore my family apart. And you've been spending all your free time with him lately.. I miss you.." Luke said and bit his lip, cursing himself for sounding so needy.
"I know.. but I'm just getting to know him. It's only been a few months since I found out he's my dad and you have to admit, Dusty is a step up from Winston Mayer." Noah said jokingly.
"Noah.." Luke sighed.
"I know, I know. Listen we we're just about to head home. My dad wants to see our apartment. So will I see you at home?" Noah asked sweetly.
"You invited him to stay for dinner, didn't you?" Luke asked, not sure if he wanted to hear the answer to that question.
"I did. But don't worry he has a business appointment so he won't stay." Noah said a little annoyed.
"I'm sorry babe. I know he's your dad and I really am I trying." Luke said slightly shocked by the tone in his boyfriend's voice. "I'll see you at home in a bit. Love you."
"I Love you too. And Luke, the only time I will change my name is the day I marry you." Noah said affectionately and hung up.
"Nice place you got here son." Dusty said as he looked around the apartment.
"Yeah it's ok, it's home." Noah said smiling. "Are you sure you don't want to stay for dinner? I'm no chef but it's usually eatable. Luke never complains."
"I'm sure you're a great cook son" Dusty said.
"Ah that I completely agree with" Luke said as he walked into the apartment, threw his keys and bag on the table and went to kiss Noah hello. "Hi Dusty." He said casually and gave Noah an I'm trying look. "Are you staying for dinner? Noah makes a great lasagne."
"I'm sure he does, but I have an appointment with your grandmother tonight and I'm pretty sure she won't appreciate it if I cancel again or just don't show up. I don't know what she'll do but I have a feeling it won't be pretty." Dusty said jokingly.
"I'm sure even "the great Lucinda Walsh" would understand it if you had to reschedule your appointment because you want to have dinner with your son." Luke said failing miserably to keep the b!tchy tone out of his voice.
"Oh I know she understands. Your grandmother is a very reasonable woman when she wants to be. But I already rescheduled that appointment twice so I could spend some time with Noah, so I really have to go tonight." Dusty said ignoring the tone in Luke's voice. "You don't mind do you son? I can call Lucinda if you want."
"No, no really it's fine. You can have dinner with us some other time. Luke and I just need some time alone I think." Noah said giving Luke a happy now look.
"Well I better go. I have to prepare for that meeting with Lucinda." Dusty said and gave Noah a hug and squeezed Luke's shoulder.
"I'll walk you to your car dad." Noah said as he grabbed his jacket and walked out the door with Dusty.
"I'm sorry about Luke's behaviour. He's trying, I know he is. It's just hard for him to forget what happened with his family last year.." Noah said apologetic looking his father in the eye.
"You don't have to apologise for anything Noah. I caused those problems myself and when Luke is ready to move on and put the past behind him, he will. Just don't you two fight over me. Not after all I did to get you two together." Dusty joked. "Now go back inside to your boyfriend. I think I can walk to the Lakeview by myself."
Noah laughed and turned around and went back inside.
Luke was laying on the sofa feeling like the biggest idiot in the world when Noah came back in.
"Noah, I'm sorry" he said as he sat up and reached out his hand to Noah who took it and let him pull him down on the sofa. They wrapped their arms around each other and sat in silence for a while.
"I don't want to fight about this with you. I don't want your father coming between us again." Luke said softly.
"I know and he won't. I just want to get to know him better. But I understand that you aren't exactly his biggest fan." Noah said and kissed the top of his boyfriend's head. "You know I can still make that lasagne tonight."
"No we'll save that for the day your dad stays for dinner" Luke said smiling sweetly and softly kissed Noah on the lips.
They switched on the TV and Noah put one of his favourite films on.
"We should get something to eat. I'm getting hungry." Noah said after a while.
"I'll cook." Luke said grabbing the phone and looking through a drawer to find the number for the Chinese restaurant to order their dinner.
Noah laughed at his boyfriend's idea of cooking.
"Where did I put that menu?!" Luke said getting frustrated and throwing his hands in the air.
At that same moment the phone rang and Luke gave it a strange look which made Noah burst out laughing.
"Oh they're calling us now. Probably because we're their best customers." Luke said trying to control his own laughing fit. "Oh hello, so nice of you to call us this time. We'll just have the usual with extra sauce." he said as he answered the phone and Noah was laughing so hard he thought he was going to pass out because of lack of oxygen.
"Oh Luke, hi. Uh can I talk to Noah for a second?" Dusty said.
"Sure, hang on" Luke said and turned his attention back to Noah who was still in the middle of a laughing fit.
"Hey if you can stop laughing for a minute, your dad wants to talk to you." Luke said tossing the phone to Noah.
"Hi.. dad.." Noah said trying to catch his breath.
"I'm not interrupting anything, am I?" Dusty said amused.
"No, no, it's fine, we were just about to order dinner when the phone rang and Luke said it was the Chinese restaurant calling us". Noah said laughing. "Never mind, it's just one of our crazy things. Why are you calling?"
"Well, Lucinda had to cancel our appointment so I guess I'm free this evening." Dusty explained.
"Oh well the offer still stands." Noah said a little more serious. "I'm sure it does but I wanted to invite the two of you to have dinner with me at the Lakeview. I already booked the table for my appointment with Lucinda and I'm sure it won't be any trouble for them to add an extra plate." Dusty said.
"Uh sure.. let me talk to Luke for a second and I'll call you back ok? Noah said and hung up.
"Dinner with Dusty Donovan?" Luke said raising an eyebrow after Noah had told him what Dusty had suggested.
"Yeah, why not? It's just dinner and we do have to eat.." Noah said giving Luke his best puppy dog eyes look.
"You know if you don't stop being so damn cute the only place we'll be going is our bedroom." Luke said seductively while crawling on top of Noah and starting to kiss his boyfriend's neck.
"Luke.." Noah said trying to stop Luke but failing miserably. "Noah" Luke whispered in his ear and smirked when Noah pushed him down on the sofa and straddled him.
"Hmm, I..guess.. I.. better.. call.. Dusty.. and tell.. him.. we're going.. to.. be.. late." Noah said in between kisses.
"Sorry we're late, something came up." Noah said giving Luke a grin as they sat down.
Dusty noticed the looks the boys were giving each other but decided not to say anything. The waiter handed them their menu's and Luke was amused to see the waiter was his brother Aaron.
"Oh so nice to have you serving me and having to be nice to me." He said teasingly.
"You better be nice to me or just hope no-one will spit in your food if you don't." Aaron replied and winked at his younger brother.
The three of them ordered their food and drinks and talked about the weather, school, Luke and Noah's apartment, how Lucinda had helped them get it, how and when the boys had decided to move in together and how happy they were now.
Dusty tried his best to keep the conversation away from himself and Lily and the rest of Luke's family and Luke silently thanked him for it. He knew the guy sitting across the table from him meant a lot to Noah and Noah meant the world to him so he was going to be nice to him. At least for tonight he'd try.
A little while later Aaron brought them their dinner.
"Having fun with the father in law?" He whispered in Luke's ear as he put his plate down in front of him. Luke gave him a shut up NOW look and Aaron walked away with a big smug grin on his face.
They enjoyed their food and talked some more about nothing in particular. When Noah excused himself to go to the toilet Luke and Dusty sat in an uncomfortable silence for a few minutes.
"I know you don't like me very much Luke and I appreciate you doing this for Noah." Dusty said breaking the silence.
"Noah means a lot to me." Luke stated. And I will kill you if you do anything to hurt him. He added in his mind.
"Don't worry, he's my son I would never do anything to hurt him. I just want to get to know him and you better." Dusty said as if he had read Luke's mind.
"Me? Why? " Luke asked unable to keep the sarcastic tone out of his voice.
"Noah loves you, you mean a lot to him. I just want to get to know the man that makes my son happy." Dusty said looking Luke straight in the eye.
"You can hate me as much as you want, but you can't change the fact that I'm Noah's father. I will be around and I will be a part of my son's life."
"I don't hate you.. much. I love Noah and I just want to see him happy. And if that means having you around.. well then so be it." Luke said daringly.
"I'm back" Noah said happy to see his boyfriend and his father hadn't killed each other. "Sorry it took so long."
"That's ok babe, we found out we have something in common after all." Luke said sweetly.
"Really? What?" Noah asked looking from Luke to Dusty and back.
"You." Luke said and kissed him on the lips.
"That wasn't so bad now was it?" Noah asked as they walked out of the restaurant.
"I guess I just have to get used to him." Luke sighed. "You got used to my dad too right?"
"Yeah well I think I had to get used to your mum and your grandmother more." Noah joked.
"Yeah the Walsh women have that effect on people sometimes." Luke joked back.
"I'll get used to Dusty as your dad, just like you got used to my crazy family, Dusty is no scarier than my dad, right?"
"Well, just so you know, Holden Snyder still scares the hell out of me sometimes." Noah said and both boys laughed and went home.

So far, all is well, my radioation levels disipated quickly and I am spastically running around the house now that I am back. hehehehe!
Ah, life is good right now!
