Spam's Not on Fed's Menu (ZDNet)
In June, politicians in Washington had finally declared an all-out war on spam, vowing to take speedy action to curb the Internet's No. 1 menace. One senator gave an impassioned floor speech warning that without a law, "we risk the destruction of all legitimate expression and commerce on the information superhighway." The New York Times predicted "a lively congressional debate" on spam over the next few months. Well, almost. Those events did occur, but the year was 1997.

He has a plan. To be a devoted husband, a great father and grandfather, and the successful businessman he´s always been.Obama is the one without a plan. I think he made a critical error this week, when he insisted upon having the tax cuts now and spending cuts later. People are tired of his tax and spend ways. I think he could have gotten away with it if he had even pretended that he wanted to rein in spending.He has had several rounds of stimulus spending with no results. How much longer can he get away with this? I know liberals are stupid and want their safety net, but they are going to be losing their jobs as well.

Here´s what I´m hoping. The person(s) who falsified the bonus birth certificate presented on the WH website would get a huge case of the guilts and he would come forward and say so and the many ACORN folks behind the scenes who tampered with the early voting ballots (many virtually disappearing)and with the machines in the morning hours of Nov 6 would be found out...and everyone who saw Obama in that gay bathhouse in Chicago in 2007 would fess up. On the subject, the great solace for Romney is that he is a fine man, an honest father and husband and many folks liked him alot. He has nothing to be ashamed of. I believe that he really won. But if we don´t get voter I.D. laws in all the states, there is no reason to have another election. Period. Click Here if you Like this Comment

To Win the next Election the Republican Party needs to do things it simply will not do. First, pull your kids out of public school, and file a lawsuit over property taxes. The public school system is a tax funded army of supporters for the Democrat party. They supply warm bodies, feet on the ground, and indoctrinate children. The public school system is so invasive that it generally enjoys primary employer status in many small communities. Unless, and Until, The GOP makes a direct assault on this government institution, Liberty dies. Click Here if you Like this Comment

Why do people keep saying "Marxist" and "communist"? The word is Islamist! The White House has sided with the extreme Muslims in every case.

Things might not go as well as Obama would like. After 4 more years, he and Michelle will no longer be seen as the wonder couple that the 47% believe them to be.

He might have some illegal power for awhile but he will be hated like all arrogant ´rulers´.

#50 I completely agree with you - the republican party has reverted to Whigdom - it is time for it to furl its banner and go away - it´s past time for a new strong and dynamic movement to take the helm - the democrats are all out of their minds and many of them are going to reap a bitter harvest come 2013.

Hold your head high Mitt, with the exception of massive voter fraud and a little over half of the American Sheeple being asleep at the wheel (or should I say asleep in the voter booth), you won the votes and heart of fine American Patriots coast to coast.

Just remember that although Richard Nixon lost in 1960, and resurrected himself and became president in 1968 and won re-election in 1972. Anything is possible.Romney could become a real thorn in Obama´s side, by writing articles and appearing on Fox and even some of the alphabets. He is so much smarter than Zippy, I think he could come across as an authority on fiscal issues. Little by little people would begin to wonder why he isn´t the president because he makes so much sense.That may be just day-dreaming on my part, but I hope Romney will study what Nixon did after the 1960 loss and what he did to get back into politics. One thing is for certain, he must not use the same advisors who were handed down to him from John McCain. Romney should pay a visit to Sarah Palin, and Ann should go with him. I think they might find they have lots in common. Click Here if you Like this Comment

How can a guy this smart and experienced with campaigns, NOT have someone on staff put together some kind of polling place strategy? Did NO one in that campaign understand the need for oversight in certain counties that have a long history of overt voting fraud?

Ditto to #7 & #38. There was massive voter fraud in the recent presidential election and World Net Daily and Hannity.com have been reporting and talking about voter fraud.And there now is a lawsuit in Florida challenging Obama´s electoral votes.

The Washington Compost has always been and continues to be a big joke. Much like the NYT this "newspaper" isn´t even fit to be in my fireplace. Did this rag print a similar story about Lurch Kerry back in 04. I can´t seem to recall one. I two am sick and tired of the main stream presstitutes saying that Romney was detached. The campaign crowds that I went to didn´t bear that nonsense out in the least. I´ve got news for the dumb liberals stinking up the Compost offices. We do have one of the most detached ingrates to ever funk up the WH in my lifetime. Heck even "BJ" Clinton was more personable than this clown(his problem was below the belt).

Americans are all the worse for this loss.

Good and evil cannot stand in the same place.We need to go underground, keep our Faith and rebuild singly, our own personal lives and then we can win.I feel so badly for these wonderful people, Mitt, Ann and their family who are such a great asset to our country. They are self-made and I am sure are realistic and well-adjusted people because their values are strong and they love one another.Mitt Romney won this election and many hearts.

Hi folks. Reply 50 cites reason Repubs. gave up the right to question minority votes way back in 1982. Until this action gets resolved, GOP will never win another election. I voted straight Repub. I was called back to hear my vote was kicked back out of the box. I had to turn it over and reinsert it to make it count. My readings of election tells me that approx 16 million votes were illegal. Especially in districts where Zero got more than 100% of the votes. End of story. Click Here if you Like this Comment

The clothing shaver works well to remove "nubbies" or what are called "pills" on fabric that has been worn for a while and usually contains polyester or acrylic blends that cause the pilling. It does a great job in removing the unwanted pilling. It is a great item, my only minor complaints are that the cover on the battery compartment is a little difficult to remove and replace, and the cover to empty out the shavings is a little difficult to snap back into place without breaking the little pieces on the sides that hold the cover on. Other than that, I really like this item.

Shaver was exactly as pictured. Works great, especially for clothing with large patches of fuzzballs. I am considering purchasing another one to have a spare on hand. Price is very reasonable.
Saved Sweaters Lives!
By Vicki
from Matamoras, PA
I didn't know what to do with some of my daughters sweaters. They had so many pills. I saw this in Miles Kimball and remembered how my mother always ordered goods from their catalog, so I thought I would give this sweater shaver a try. Wow! What a difference. The sweaters look so much better. You can control the shaver by how hard you press it against the knit of the fabric. I love this gadget. What took me so long?
You get what you pay for

Unfortunately, you get what you pay for. The fabric shaver does not run well on batteries or charger. It requires several passes over fabric and still only removes little of the "fuzz". I bought 2 and gave one to a friend and was embarrassed when I used mine and it performed so poorly.
Works well
By Kat

I like this product very much. It is better than the smaller ones because you finish the job so much faster. Sturdy and easy to use.
find itis big, but stops often....
By lapdlady
from North Hills, CA
wanted to use on sweaters, find the storage capacity small, and have had to change the batteries often, and they are new. My older smaller one works better
Not as effective as I'd hoped

Intellectuals and SocietyThe influence of intellectuals is not only greater than in previous eras but also takes a very different form from that envisioned by those like Machiavelli and others who have wanted to directly influence rulers. It has not been by shaping the opinions or directing the actions of the holders of power that modern intellectuals have most influenced the course of events, but by shaping public opinion in ways that affect the actions of power holders in democratic societies, whether or not those power holders accept the general vision or the particular policies favored by intellectuals. Even government leaders with disdain or contempt for intellectuals have had to bend to the climate of opinion shaped by those intellectuals. Intellectuals and Society not only examines the track record of intellectuals in the things they have advocated but also analyzes the incentives and constraints under which their views and visions have emerged. One of the most surprising aspects of this study is how often intellectuals have been proved not only wrong, but grossly and disastrously wrong in their prescriptions for the ills of society - and how little their views have changed in response to empirical evidence of the disasters entailed by those views. |

Here's a fun article about the benefits of plush carpeting to complete my Extreme Cubicle Makeover:
"Don't you agree that high design such as this in the workplace, particularly in a cubicle, can only elevate, enhance and improve? I do have one suggestion. A larger rug. For that matter, what about wall-t0-wall carpet for this cubicle? It would add to the richness of the experience, help absorb unwanted noise from neighboring cubicle mates and generally enhance the work environment." - Christine Whittemore, Director of In-Store Innovation for Solutia's Wear-Dated carpet fiber.

If you examine the percentage of time you spend conscious and where you spend it, you may start to realize that a vast majority of your time is spent boxed up in a cubicle at work. Yes, the universalist cubism that runs rampant throughout the first five pages of CIO magazine which extols the virtues of "open space" and "group-think" and (shudder) "egalitarianism" sounds fine... but that's only what they tell you to try to sell you on the idea that your hamster cage doesn't come with a wheel. The reality behind the scenes is the "productivity-thought-hours-per-square-inch-per-cost-center-dollar-spent-per-revenue-dollar-made" discussion that inevitably happens between the CFO and the CIO as they plan where to stuff all of the worker bees is what it's truly about. Lower costs, higher revenue... at the expense of the hamster.
There is nothing more emblematic of capitalism than the modern IT department yet there is nothing more socialistic than a cubicle farm. This dichotomy is exposed to its greatest extreme with my new project: The Red Mahogany Luxury Paneled Cubicle with Dark Cherry Hardwood Floors.
In an era of socialized information technology, there is the opportunity to re-capitalize the space and demonstrate that originality trumps equality, that shoving capitalists into socialist boxes only create unhappy socialists, and red mahogany generally kicks ass...

Should Mitt Romney win the presidency Tuesday, it will mark an historic first: a Mormon couple moving into the White House.
What would this mean and look like?
Would there be "dry" state dinners, since faithful Mormons don't do alcohol? Would Secret Service tag along to sacred ceremonies only open to worthy church members? What book would a President Mitt Romney use to take his oath of office?
We can't be absolutely sure about all the answers. But if the practices and homes of devout Mormons like the Romneys -- not to mention his history as governor of Massachusetts -- are any indication, we can begin to paint a picture of what a Romney-inhabited White House might look like.
First things first: About that oath
Members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints believe the Bible is the word of God. But they also believe this about the Book of Mormon, which is subtitled "Another Testament of Jesus Christ."
Given the importance of the Book of Mormon, this question seemed worth asking: Any chance Romney would place his hand on a Book of Mormon at his swearing-in ceremony?
"No, no way Romney would do that," Jana Riess, a religion scholar, co-author of "Mormonism for Dummies," and blogger for Religion News Service, wrote in an e-mail message. "I'm not aware of any Mormon who has sworn on the Book of Mormon instead of the Bible for national office. (I'm not aware of any local officials who have done this either.)"
Most likely, Romney would go back to the Bible he used in 2003 when he was sworn in as governor of Massachusetts -- the same one his father, George Romney, reportedly used when he was sworn in as Michigan's governor in the 1960s.
Beyond paint and fabric swatches
Having never been invited over for a meal, we can't pretend to know anything about the Romney aesthetic when it comes to home decoration. But we wondered and asked about specific items that tend to hang in Mormon households.
Randall Balmer, an award-winning historian, author and chair of the Department of Religion at Dartmouth College, speculated that the Romneys -- like plenty of Mormons -- might display artwork featuring a depiction of Jesus and a photograph of LDS Church President Thomas S. Monson, considered a "prophet, seer and revelator" by members of the church.
Another possibility, said Riess, would be a photo of the Salt Lake Temple where Mitt and Ann Romney were married and "sealed" for eternity in a sacred ceremony in 1969.
Then there's something commonly known as the "Proclamation on the Family," which is often framed and displayed in homes -- though rarely in upper-class households, said Joanna Brooks, author of "The Book of Mormon Girl: Stories from an American Faith."
The proclamation features words set forth by LDS Church leadership in 1995, highlighting family and gender responsibilities. Among the points made: Marriage is between a man and woman; the primary responsibility of fathers is to oversee and provide for families; and mothers must first and foremost care for the children.
All of these items could show up in the White House, said Grant Bennett, an old Romney friend who spoke at the Republican National Convention and has known the Romney family since they met through church in 1978.
But he said, "the most quintessential Mormon item would be pictures of their family," including those of ancestors, because "families are forever" and bound for eternity in the Mormon view.
Bennett also suggested that a verse or two of Scripture that is particularly meaningful to the Romneys might be framed and on display.
If any of these things would hang in the White House, they would likely appear in the private quarters where first families are free to do what they please.
That doesn't mean Romney wouldn't be allowed to honor his faith in some way in the Oval Office, but decorative decisions in public rooms -- the spaces visited on tours -- are subject to committee discussions and advisers on historic preservation, explained Melissa Naulin, assistant curator in the Curator's Office of the White House Museum.
Can I get a cup of coffee? How about something stronger?
In accordance with a revelation received in 1833 by LDS Church founder Joseph Smith, something known as the "Word of Wisdom," faithful Latter-day Saints abstain from coffee, tea and alcohol.
Does this mean a return to the days of "Lemonade Lucy," the posthumous nickname given to the wife of Rutherford B. Hayes, the 19th U.S. president, who banned alcohol from the White House?
No, said Cabinet members from Romney's gubernatorial era and a current top aide. They said this health-related observance is not one the Romneys would impose on or expect of others.
"As governor, when Mitt Romney entertained at official functions in the evening, alcohol was served along with soft beverages," said a senior aide who asked not to be identified in stories about religion.

2013 News Oregon legislature enacts new land use legislation June 24, 2013 Salem, OR: The Oregon Senate gave final approval on Thursday to significant new land use legislation intended to improve planning for growth in Oregon. The two bills enacted, HB 2253 and HB 2254, will help cities forecast population and evaluate the need for additional land and development capacity inside urban growth boundaries (UGB). UGBs are established by cities to plan where to grow and how. Many local governments, residents and other stakeholders have become frustrated with the complexity, expense and slowness of the UGB amendment process. HB 2254 provides new simplified UGB planning methods. These methods will help cities to estimate how much future growth can be accommodated within their boundaries and clarify how cities decide where to grow when they need additional land. The new methods are optional - cities that want to continue using the current UGB system may do so. A companion bill, HB 2253, establishes a simplified way to forecast population growth, intended to greatly reduce costs for local governments and assure they are using the best available population forecast data for land use planning. The bill places the responsibility for preparing population forecasts with the Population Research Center (PRC) at Portland State University. PRC will issue a forecast for each city and county every four years. Currently, forecasting is been done by many jurisdictions and agencies resulting in duplication of effort and other cost-inefficiencies. These bills were proposed by a broad coalition of interests, including cities, counties, homebuilders, special districts, realtors and land use planning advocates. Erin Doyle, Intergovernmental Relations Association for the League of Oregon Cities, stated that the League of Oregon Cities believes the bill "allows efficient use of city resources and makes important changes to land use planning laws – we are proud that the stakeholders were able to come together and reach agreement on how to amend this process to make it workable for all cities in Oregon." Another supporter of the legislation, Mary Kyle McCurdy of 1000 Friends of Oregon, indicated that the bill offers "simpler, fact-based methods and ensures our cities will meet the needs of all Oregonians by providing housing options and walkable communities and by protecting farmland from sprawl." HB 2253 and HB 2254 apply to all cities except those in the Portland Metro region. The new UGB methods will require state agency rulemaking to work out details before they take effect.
Catch a Tide - King Tides come to the Oregon Coast
Volunteers needed to photograph this winter's highest high tides
November 5, 2012
Newport, OR - Oregon's coastal residents will experience some of the year's highest tides from the 13th through the 15th of November. Several groups in Oregon, including the CoastWatch program of the Oregon Shores Conservation Coalition and Surfrider, are participating in a project to document areas affected by such high tides. The King Tide Photo Initiative is an international project designed to involve volunteers in documenting areas inundated by the highest tides that occur each year. These highest high tides are often called "king tides". Volunteers are being asked to help build a visual record by taking photos of areas inundated by these high water events and then adding the photo to a king tide photo website. Everyone is welcome to participate, they just need to pick a place, click a photo and share it on Flickr.
King tides are normally occurring events caused by predictable astronomical factors that result in tides that are higher than most high tides. Areas affected by these king tides are susceptible to higher water levels from increased wave heights, winter storms and changes in sea levels.
Good king tide photos will show water levels adjacent to a fixed feature like a piling, seawall or bridge abutment. Including fixed features will allow actual water levels to be documented and tracked over time. Good photos also must include the location, the date and time the photo was taken and the viewer's direction for each picture. Two photos taken from the same spot, one during the king tide and the other at a typical high tide, are also very effective in highlighting these water events.
King tides will also occur December 12th through the 14th and January 10th through the 12th.
For more information please contact Cinamon Moffett, NOAA Coastal Fellow, at Oregon Coastal Management Program in Newport, (541) 574-4514 or email@example.com
MacLaren Appointed Deputy Director
September 12, 2012
DLCD Issues Report Partially Remanding Metro's Urban Growth Boundary Decision April 24, 2012 Salem, OR – On November 8, 2011, Metro issued final decisions to the Department of Land Conservation and Development (DLCD) regarding regional capacity to accommodate housing and employment land needs to the year 2030. Metro's decisions included provision for increased efficiency of development, as well as adding 3,598 acres to its regional urban growth boundary (UGB). Metro's decision requires the approval of the Land Conservation and Development Commission, also known as LCDC. The department analyzed that decision and issued a report on April 19, 2012, recommending to the commission a partial approval of Metro's actions, and a remand of certain portions of the decision for further work. The department recommends that the commission approve the amendments to Metro's Framework Plan, Functional Plans and Metro Code that implement Metro Council's policies on development efficiency and investment strategy in those places in the region intended to accommodate higher residential densities. These places include regional and town centers, light rail station communities and designated corridors and main streets. However, the department found that there is not sufficient information in Metro's work to substantiate the amount of land to be added to the urban growth boundary or the locations of the expansions areas. "Metro completed a lot of very good research and analysis," said Jim Rue, acting director, "but the department found some important points that we didn't believe had been adequately addressed." A hearing is scheduled for the LCDC meeting on May 10, in Salem to consider the Metro actions and the recommendations from the DLCD director for partial approval and partial remand. Local decisions on UGB amendments are among the most complex issues the commission is asked to confront, Rue said, "because a UGB, being the centerpiece of the Oregon land use planning program, is asked to accomplish many policy objectives." Questions regarding this item may be referred to Jennifer Donnelly, DLCD Regional Representative, at (503) 725-2183, or firstname.lastname@example.com. _________________________________________________________________________ Carney Appointed to At-large Position on CIAC April 2, 2012 Salem, OR – The Land Conservation and Development Commission (LCDC), at their March meeting, appointed Sadie Carney to represent Oregon's citizens on the State Citizen Involvement Advisory Committee. Carney will fill a vacancy as an At-large representative on the CIAC. Her term began upon appointment and will run through December 2015. Sadie's first meeting will be with the 8th of May in Salem. Carney lives in Portland. She is a recent graduate of the Portland State University Master in Urban and Regional Planning program. "I am honored to be appointed to LCDC's Citizen Involvement Advisory Committee because I believe strongly in transparent government that engages all citizens in planning - at local, county and state levels. With my marketing and outreach background, I hope to assist the CIAC in developing methods of outreach that can be applied broadly and will reach out to all members of a community. Through education and innovation, I believe the CIAC can bring greater equity and inclusion to land use planning in the State of Oregon. Oregon belongs to her citizens, giving them greater access to be informed and involved in land use decisions makes a better place for everyone." CIAC chair Mollie Eder had this to say, "From a well-qualified group of applicants for this vacant position, our committee is pleased that LCDC selected Sadie Carney. Her public outreach experience and background using social media to obtain public participation in various land use projects will add immensely to the CIAC efforts to promote citizen involvement," Gregory McClarren added "Ms. Carney's skills in marketing and communications arts along with her past experience in Oregon and other states will bring new energy and ideas to the Committee's efforts to expand and make more effective citizen involvement in Oregon's land use system." The CIAC was established by statute as an advisory body to LCDC. It has eight volunteer members, one from each of Oregon's five Congressional Districts and three chosen at-large. Committee members are appointed to four year terms by LCDC. Individuals interested in future opportunities with the CIAC can find information and openings at http://www.oregon.gov/LCD/citizeninvolvement.shtml. _________________________________________________________________________ Update on Wineries and Events on Farmland

The disadvantages of pole barns discussed so far are:
· Not resistant to heaving caused by flooding and frost.
· Wood used has a high probability of shrinking and warping with time
· Pressure treated wood unsafe for livestock
· Costly to maintain
· Low resistance to fire
In addition to this list, another concern for pole barns is the fact that they do not come with the proper plans and drawings needed to secure the necessary building permits and learning how the parts are going to be assembled. Construction of pole barns require painstaking hours needed for sorting, cutting, and fitting of the building components which come unnumbered and unsorted.
On the other hand, aside from plans and drawings, steel buildings come with erection manuals that are easy to read and follow. Aside from these, all the components are sorted and numbered for easy identification. As a result, construction of steel buildings is as easy as solving a jigsaw puzzle – all the components fit exactly and perfectly, eliminating the need for onsite cutting, drilling, and welding.
Furthermore, pole barns have to be re-sheeted and repainted once every eight years, causing another dent in the farmers' pockets. An additional common problem for pole barns is rusting caused by the steel members coming in contact with the wood. These concerns are unlikely to happen with steel buildings. These metal structures are coated with materials that make them highly resistant to rust and corrosion.
Steel buildings do not need re-sheeting and re-painting. Pole barns have an average 14-year lifespan while steel buildings are certain to provide many decades of efficient use.

International Orangutan Center Construction Cam Get a bird's eye view as the Indianapolis Zoo's newest exhibit begins to take shape! Construction began in October 2012, and once complete, the International Orangutan Center will be a spectacular and unique place for people to learn about this endangered species. The exhibit is scheduled to open in May 2014. Until then, the International Orangutan Center Cam is the only place for up-to-the-second updates on the exhibit's progress. Learn more about the International Orangutan Center.
Cheetah and Elephant Cam Step inside the Plains exhibits that our cheetahs and elephants call home. This might be the only time you'll catch up to the speediest of all land mammals! The cheetah exhibit was created to have multiple vistas across the other yards in Plains. Notice also that these majestic creatures have a view of the neighboring elephant exhibit, and with just a few clicks, you can pan around to see them, too! You'll get a bird's eye view of our eight African elephants. Some of the faces you might see include "senior" pachyderm Sophi, who has a noticeable notch in her left ear, young Kalina, born in 2011 to mother Kubwa, and our newest addition Nyah, born in 2012 to mother Ivory. Photo by Fred Cate.
Penguin Cam Check out the rockhoppers, gentoos and king penguins inside the Oceans building! The rockhoppers are the smallest species — the ones with the yellow feathers jutting out from their heads. The gentoos are the middle-sized birds with the plain white stripe across the top of their heads. The king penguins — the second largest of all of the penguin species — are the ones with the distinctive yellow patches on the sides of their heads. Photo by Susan Lang
Tiger Cam Transport yourself to the continent of Asia without ever leaving your computer chair! Amur tigers are the largest of the five surviving tiger species and are native to Russia as well as parts of China and North Korea. Only about 350-400 of these critically endangered animals survive in the wild, with about the same number in human care around the world. Here, you'll get a view of the Zoo's three Amur tigers inside the Tiger Forest presented by Citizens Energy Group exhibit. Learn more about saving tigers.
Walrus Cam Aurora is our veteran adult female walrus. She shares her exhibit with Pakak, a male Pacific walrus calf who was found stranded off the coast of northern Alaska by the Alaska SeaLife Center in Seward. We are very lucky to have these animals since there are only 19 walruses in human care at zoos and aquariums around the United States. Watch a video of Pakak and Aurora interacting here.

>Students at Kennewick High School in Washington have asked to get a GSA in place, but were told it wouldn't be well received. A supportive school board member however, is working to get over that hurdle.
"Kids are experiencing rejection for no good reason and I think we have work to do to fix that," said Wendy London, a member of the Kennewick School Board...London has committed to have monthly meetings with the Vista Youth Center. She says hopefully some work on training and education on Lesbian Gay Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT) related issues for school district staff can be done.
>How's this for breaking stereotypes?
...a four-year member of the football and baseball teams, and a band member, Kiran is a well-liked out gay student.
Kiran Raghubir was recently given a Moxie Award and a $2000 scholarship from an organization called PFund.
He always put his academics first—as a result, he has been recognized two years running for having the highest GPA of any player on the football team. According to his Admission Possible senior coach, Kiran has a deep knowledge of himself and his identity, and he is masterful when interacting with his peers. Kiran plans to integrate his love of the clarinet and piano with his college career.

"It is so rare to find an occasion in which so many young leaders come together to share ideas and experiences. It's a privilege to build upon our progress within the gay rights movement and to honor those who led the way before us. A lot of progress has been made during our 20 years of operation, but it is our duty as future representatives of the movement to expand upon this transition toward a more open, unified world." -GSA leaders Liz Brown '09 and Alina Pechacek '09

General Hospital Recaps
GH Week of December 29, 2008
At Metro Court, Carly and Jax bickered over the running of the hotel spa. Jax pointed out that Carly might be short-tempered because it's Michael's birthday.
At Sonny's, Corinthos admitted he was surprised by Jason's request that he quit the Zaccharas. Sonny denied the request since Jason wasn't going to surrender the business back to him. Sonny then blatantly phoned in a shipment to be delivered in Jason's territory. Jason couldn't believe Sonny would act this way on this, of all days. Jason warned Sonny he'd do whatever he needed to do and then left.
At the church, Robert proudly walked Robin down the aisle. She and Patrick exchanged touching vows. The couple wed without incident and upon the completion of their first kiss as husband and wife, the church erupted in applause. The bride and groom walked back down the aisle amongst the cheers of family and friends.
At the reception, Anna stated getting teary thinking about the past.
Luckily, Luke arrived with drinks and proposed a toast. Maxie was having a problem realizing that the ceremony went off without a hitch. As she continued to sip champagne, Maxie admitted to Spinelli that although she was happy for her cousin, she was also a tad jealous. The newlyweds shared their first dance, then Robin opened up the floor to everyone. Robin then danced with Robert and Patrick danced with Anna. Matt asked Maxie to dance, since
no one else had. Maxie handed Spinelli her purse and they hit the floor. Matt then questioned Maxie about her relationship with Spinelli, which she didn't want to talk about. Meanwhile, Edward approached Luke and told him that he needs to calm Tracy down, as she's become hell on wheels since their separation.
Robin told Robert that he was officially "off the hook" for his years of neglect, and Mac told her how proud he was of the woman she has become. Robert toasted the happy couple, followed by Anna, who provided them with a list of "do's" and "don'ts." It came to the cake cutting and Robin advised Patrick if he smashed the cake in her face, they'd have the shortest marriage in history. He laughed and they tenderly fed each other. Later, in his mind, Spinelli shared a sweet dance with Maxie.
Jax went to see Sam and asked her to fill in the blanks of Jerry's last moments. Sam sat him down and told him the story of their last encounter on the freighter. Jax was hopeful that Jerry might have survived the explosion but Sam said she didn't think so. Jax apologized for his brother's actions and she apologized for his loss. After Jax left, Jason arrived and Sam informed him that Agent Rayner was asking questions about Spinelli.
Sonny and Carly ran into each other in Michael's hospital room at the Aftercare Center. They discussed Michael's birthday's past and wept. Carly told Sonny that her gift to Michael was them forgiving each other of their past transgressions.
On New Year's Eve, a blackout hit Port Charles.
At Crimson, Maxie freaked at Spinelli, stating she needed power for her computer to retrieve the document she was working on. Spinelli tried to calm her and pointed out that Maximista probably didn't back up her document. Maxie stated it was Spinelli's fault for not reminding her. Spinelli tried using a car battery for a power source to no avail. Maxie couldn't believe that Spinelli was unable to solve her dilemma. She was flustered that her article on shoes would be late, and this was the first time she'd met a deadline. As Spinelli typed away, Maxie admitted that she was happy but a little jealous about Robin's happiness. Spinelli managed to hack into the
Crimson mainframe, only to find Maxie's article was indeed gone. Spinelli sneezed as Maxie lamented her lost work. He assured her that she could easily rewrite the piece but Maxie doubted it. After a pep talk, Maxie thanked Spinelli for his friendship and they watched the clock tower from Kate's office. When midnight arrived, Spinelli missed his chance at a kiss when he sneezed. Maxie laughed and gave him a hug.
At Metro Court, Carly came out of the stairwell to the restaurant and found Jax alone. "In case you haven't heard, we're closed tonight," he smiled. Carly was upset that the blackout ruined the hotel's plans for New Year's Eve. Jax was amazed Carly made it up the entire stairwell. He assured Carly that the food for the cancelled party was all sent to the local homeless shelter. Carly was touched ‹ and happy that he didn't give away the dessert
she'd saved for herself. The couple then shared some champagne and tiramisu. Jax was impressed Carly would climb that flight of stairs just for a dessert. She pointed out that women had no bounds when it came to getting their sugar. Jax and Carly toasted to the new year to come. The couple shared a dance, and a kiss.
At the apartment, Johnny needed to quickly shower and change to take Lulu out for New Year's Eve. She mentioned that he didn't have to cater to her but he said he was looking forward to showing her a good time. Lulu wanted to pay for the cab but Johnny wouldn't hear of it. After discussing the matter, Johnny slipped that he'd rather not go out. Lulu agreed so they cancelled their plans. Lulu ordered a pizza and they shared some beers and
reflected about their tumultuous year. Lulu ordered Johnny to get dressed, in search of a New Year's Eve snow. Johnny pointed out the odds were unlikely but he agreed to play along. Down at the docks, snow began to fall and the duo shared an embrace.
Tracy showed up at The Haunted Star and was appalled that the place was empty. Luke told her he was having a private party and she was the only one on the guest list. Tracy couldn't believe he'd lose out on the biggest money-making night of the year. He proposed a drink but she still doubted his commitment to her. A roulette spin told Tracy to stay but she thought the game was rigged. Tracy played her and Laura's birthdays: if the ball landed on 6 (hers, April 6), she'd return to Luke: if it landed on Laura's
(21, of December), they'd divorce. Luke sun the wheel. At the last moment, Tracy moved all her chips to 6 and, lo and behold, that's where the ball came to rest. Luke began to gently kiss Tracy's cheek. She grabbed his face and pulled him into a liplock.
At Wyndemere, Nikolas and Nadine shared an awkward candlelight dinner of rack of lamb. Nikolas told Nadine that she doesn't need to be nervous and that she can be herself in front of him. Nadine asked where Spencer was. Nik said he was spending the holidays with Grandma Lesley and expressed regret that he didn't quite know how to raise his son. Nadine assured him that
he'll be a great dad and things take time. They traded resolutions, then Nik asked Nadine if she'd spend the night with him. After she pulled a toothbrush from her purse, Nik pulled Nadine into an embrace. They rang in the new year by making love.
Happy New Year! Recaps will resume Monday.
Happy New Year! Recaps will resume Monday.
Nikolas and Nadine went horseback riding at Wyndemere but cut it short when
her horse "threw a show." A superstitious Nadine predicted it was going to
be a bad day. Nadine was waiting to hear from a Mr. Corday at the licensing
company regarding Aunt Raylene's plow patent. Nikolas had his lawyer contact
Corday. The attorney called back saying the company is called Equinox and
they're a defense contractor. Nadine was incredulous. Just then, Corday
called: he was in Port Charles and wanted to meet. Later, Corday arrived and
stated that Equinox planned to renew the patent and handed her a sizable
check. Nik warned Corday not to assume anything, as he wanted his team of
lawyers to review and possibly re-negotiate the patent deal. Nadine then
asked Corday what they do with Raylene's plow-fitting invention. He said he
could not answer — due to reasons of national security. Nadine then ripped
up the check but Corday told her that breaking their agreement wasn't going
to be that simple.
At Casa de Corinthos, Claudia was frustrated by Jerry's clue to the hidden
DVD. Upon checking above a window, Sonny walked in. "You really don't think
I know what you're looking for?" he asked. She lied about measuring for new
drapes but Sonny didn't buy it. He thought she was searching for hidden
cameras. Sonny mentioned that Jason let the Zacchara shipment go through his
territory, as it was Michael's birthday and he didn't want to cause a
commotion. When Claudia asked if there was anything she could do, Sonny
replied, "Keep the drapes," then left. As Claudia resumed her search, Ric
arrived. She asked Ric to let her know if Anthony had a hidden agenda. Ric
skirted the question and Claudia warned him that her father is not to be
trusted. She tried coming on to him but Ric pleaded ignorance and left.
At Crimson, Maxie was happy that her article was just about done after
having to rewrite it when it got lost on her computer during the power
outage. On his laptop, Spinelli entered "Defcon One" after discovering that
his files had been hacked into. Maxie finished her article and backed it up,
as Spinelli kept sneezing. Lulu arrived with Kate's coffee, moments before
Kate and Jax arrived. Spinelli hid while the girls looked busy. Kate took
Maxie's article and said, "Good-bye, Mr. Spinelli."
Sam called Jason after Agent Rayner left his card under her door. Lucky
arrived and wanted to explain about New Year's Eve. He relayed that when he
was on the way to Sam's place, Elizabeth called about a broken water heater.
Lucky went to fix it, then got called into work. Sam said she was okay with
it and managed to hide Rayner's card before Lucky saw it. He, however, knew
she was hiding something. Lucky asked if she was planning another undercover
investigation but he was paged to work before he and Sam could finish their
On the docks, Spinelli ran into a female cyber geek, who was totally in awe
of The Jackal. Spinelli was able to fix the gal's laptop dilemma and she was
thrilled to have crossed paths with such a legend. After a sneezing bout,
Spinelli looked up and the girl was gone.
Back at Crimson, as Kate and Jax went over cover ideas, Jax suggested they
needed a new face and mentioned sponsoring a contest. Kate was mildly
intrigued. As they joked around, Sonny entered. "Sorry to interrupt the
playfulness," he deadpanned. Sonny stated to Kate that Jax was just using
her to make Carly jealous. Kate kicked Sonny out, adding, "Give my regards
to your wife."
Lulu helped Johnny dress for a job interview. In a series of meetings, it
was clear Johnny lacked education, experience and was hindered by his family
name and hot temper. Lulu came home from work to find a disgruntled Johnny
with a swollen hand. She feared he'd punched out an interviewer but it was
just a wall he'd hit. Johnny was frustrated by his situation but as Lulu
treated his hand, she calmed him and he thanked her. Lulu assured Johnny
that everything would be okay. Just then, Lucky showed up with a warrant for
Johnny's arrest.
Later, Spinelli arrived at Sam's and warned her not to e-mail him anything,
as he has been "Jackaled." Sam was hoping Spinelli could hack into Rayner's
activities to see what he was up to but, alas, the Jackal could not. Then,
he mentioned his encounter with the mysterious cyber girl. "You have fans?"
Sam wondered aloud. Spinelli then left in a tizzy. "All is lost," he
bemoaned. On the docks, Spinelli apologized to his hacked-in laptop as cyber
girl watched him from afar. Maxie caught her and asked why she was spying on
Sonny returned home to find Claudia looking behind the mirror. "What the
hell are you up to now?" he wondered. As Sonny barked at her, the DVD fell
out from behind the mirror. Sonny then warned Claudia that if she's hiding
something, he'll find out.

Description Report Fraud
Buick Skylark Convertible, Red, for sale in San Juan Capistrano, California, price on application.
Limited Production Skylark was the Buick flagship in 1954. Styled by Harley Earl. Desirable then, highly collectible now.
1954 Buick Skylark
While General Motors selected their top brands to be highlighted and promote design leadership through Limited Production unique body and trim styles a year earlier, by 1954, only Buick continued with the successful and very special Skylark as their top-of-the line to represent their line-up. This flagship was fully optioned, and featured unusual, yet sporty styling to the front and rear wheel openings, along with unique body panels that included Skylark-specific front fenders, doors, and rear quarters.
From front to rear, this Titian Red Skylark makes a high visual impact. It has the last year of the Buick chromed fine-tooth grille that appears as a waterfall pattern that flows into two chromed mini-Dagmars in the front bumper The Skylark hood trim was also only applied to this highest level Buick model convertible in 1954. The side view really had wow factor, with the-new-for-'54 shorter wheelbase frame, and a windshield chopped 3 inches lower than other Buick convertible models. The convertible top frame was also factory-modified to create a visually lower profile when the white top was up. The Skylark specific front fenders, with elongated front wheel openings, are treated to a stunning contrasted white paint inner fender treatment that was like no other from any manufacturer. Skylarks were treated to Kelsey-Hayes 40-spoke chromed wire wheels; this one has wide whitewalls. Peeking through the wires are red painted brake drums. The outer door panels are also Skylark specific, with their cut-down rear line treatment. The rear quarter panels are capped with Skylark chromed taillight bezels that visually appear to be fins, an indicator of the future design direction that Harley Earl was taking GM. The rear trunk deck includes Skylark special stampings that appear as defined longitudinal ribs merging into the chromed guards on the rear bumper.
The Cordaveen covered interior has a waffle type pattern on the seat bottoms, with a matching waffle pattern that starts at the top of the seat back, and flows down about three–quarters. The interior door and window frames are fully chromed, as is the broad chrome on the dashboard. The bold, flat Buick steering wheel is fitted to a steering column that was repositioned by the factory, as were the seat frames, all lowered to provide head room required by the factory shortened windshield.
Only 863 Buick Skylarks were built in 1954. This is a sporting, yet elegant Skylark that makes for a very special Buick, then and now.

Adelaide songstress Sia Furler has had a career that the millions of mass-produced pop marionette dolls could only dream of. She has released a succession of critically acclaimed albums, written and guested on songs for some of the world's biggest stars, been the key voice of UK chill out troupe Zero 7 and now her dominance of commercial radio looks set to be ongoing as she earmarks the release of her sixth album.
Though it took the better part of a decade, Sia finally found semi-fame when her heart-wrenching ballad "Breathe Me" featured in the final moments of the critically acclaimed HBO series Six Feet Under. A slow and steady three years later, she released Some People Have Real Problems, arguably her finest album to date. Tracks like "Buttons" and "Lullaby" achieved international recognition and airplay, leading to an unforgettable performance on David Letterman – America's doors were open.
In the gap between her third and fourth album, We Are Born, Sia concentrated on her song writing skills, writing for Christina Aguilera's epic flop, Bionic. While her contributions were the album's memorable moments, Sia saved the best for We Are Born. An electro-pop album with heart, it received critical acclaim and hosted track after track of exceptional work.
In 2011/12, we have been introduced to a different kind of Sia – the guest star. With David Guetta's anthemic "Titanium", Flo Rida's "Wild Ones" and Skip-hop Hilltop Hoods' "I Love It", Sia came dangerously close to being on radio more than commercials. The first two even hit no.1 in the UK.
While hearing Sia's inimitable voice on radio is welcome, her fans yearn for her sixth album, where her immaculate song writing, compelling lyrics and momentous voice can shine.
To commemorate the release of her Best Of today, here are my Top 5 Sia Moments: (Zero 7 tracks not included but if they are foreign to you, check out "You're My Flame", "This Broken Social Scene" and "Destiny.")
5. Drink To Get Drunk (Healing Is Difficult)
As much as it pains me to feature a song without an official video clip, "Drink To Get Drunk" is just too good to refuse. From the almost awkward piano melody to the glossy hip-hop beat, to the eclectic mix of instruments that shouldn't work, all the way to lyrics that are so stupidly simple yet so completely amazing – this is the Sunday morning hair-of-the-dog theme tune for those who aren't quite sure if they're coming down or going up.
4. Clap Your Hands (We Are Born)
"Clap Your Hands" was the quintessential track off We Are Born, perfectly encapsulating the electro pop sound of the rest of the album. With a typically Sia clip that was equal part bonkers and cute, "Clap Your Hands" found a home on both commercial and alternative sides of the fence, becoming her first Australian Top 20 single and polling 13th in Triple J's Hottest 100 in 2011.
3. Soon You'll Be Found (Some People Have Real Problems)
More about the performance than the actual song (which is still stunningly haunting), this was one of the biggest stepping stones in Sia's career. Enhancing the lyrics with sign language (Sia has many deaf fans due to her lyricism and energetic shows), Sia charmed David Letterman and guests with this sensational rendition.
2. Day Too Soon (Some People Have Real Problems)
When typical pop stars write love songs, they are usually some rubbish about being the only one in the club, or thanks to Jason Derulo's modern day poetry, "Much more than a Grammy award, that's how much you mean to me." Ugh. When Sia writes a love song, it involves epic vocal and emotional crescendos, lyrics that fly flippantly between triumphant strength and trembling vulnerability and well, the most ridiculous use of a swan since Bjork attended the Oscars in 2001. Bravo.
1. Breathe Me (Colour The Small One)
Since I've made quite a few references, it is fair to say that the majority of Sia's appeal lies in her lyrics. Over the top yet completely relatable, we share her story. Fitting then that the final scene of one of the most loved television shows in history featured Sia's masterpiece. I have posted Six Feet Under's last six minutes but I sincerely recommend finding Mylo's remix. I'm going to do the unthinkable and nominate it as the superior "Breathe Me". *Cowers to avoid thrown rocks*. For more truly manipulative heart wrenching, check out Sia's "Lullaby" in the final episode of the Bic C's debut season.
You can hear Sia Furler on Tegan & Sara's upcoming album, while her own album should surface by late 2012.
The Best of Sia is available today.

The absolute best divers dip and amazing Mahi Mahi tacos!! A must have while in Carolina Beach! Where the locals go to eat!
I go here often to hang out with friends and the food is alright too. Love going here after tourist season its much more laid back and easy to find seating.
I have been here before and the fish tacos is worth the wait. The waitress is also the bartender, did not get her name but she had dark hair and was very nice
As far as overall atmosphere, this place is definitely a dive. The food as decent, two of the five if us enjoyed the meal. The turkey wrap and the shrimp wrap were both good, not great, just average. The most notable flavor in all the dishes, the appetizers, the fries, the chips, the chicken breast sandwich, practically everything, was SALT.... More
The food is great and the prices reasonable for the island- we eat here often and my husband loves the shrimp and grits
quick service, great food, great waitress. comfortable atmosphere. loved that "hole in the wall" feeling, and the fact that everyone working there seemed to enjoy their jobs.
We ordered fries one night and were hooked! We went back for a light post beach dinner. I would advise against ordering a mixed drink- due to the tiny disposable cups. The place itself is spacious. The floors were kind of dirty along the walls and things on the walls ie. scuba suits needed a thorough dusting. The server was... More
Enjoy a cold beer and great little sandwich at the Dive. Good place to go to be seen in Carolina Beach.
We went here for a night out... absoutely amazing! They had a reggae band playing at night, drinks were farly cheap and the atmosphere was brilliant. Would defintely recommend it if you are looking fr a casual night out... friday night is band night!!! :)
I saw this place earlier and had several local persons recommend it, so we stopped in for a late lunch and a little football watching. We had a fun meal (burgers, tacos, drilled cheese, etc.) and received friendly service. The bar section had a few customers and it was great for our family to hang out. I am sure the... More
