10 Christmas Photos Every Parent Should Take
Christmas-time is my favorite season to photograph—the old Christmas photos from my own family albums inspire me, as do the colorful lights and the ambience of fireside glow.
Blurred Lights
One of my favorite elements of Christmas photos is a colored light bokeh, that beautiful blurred blend of lights behind your subject. How do you get it? You need a wide aperature (this was shot at f 1.4), distance between your subject and the lights, and a long focal length (50 mm for this image).
Family Traditions
Make a list of your family's favorite traditions to help you remember images you'll want to capture—many that might take place long before December 25. My husband happens to be a bit of a Clark Griswold, so every year I make it a point to take a photo of his decorating routine.
Taking the kids to see Santa? Don't forget to bring your own camera, even if you plan on paying for an image. Malls tend to focus on that everybody-look-at-the-camera-and-smile shot, so aim to capture a more meaningful image of your child engaged in conversation with Santa.
The Tree
When we decorate our Christmas tree, we pull a ladder out to reach the top of the tree. It makes a great perch for beautiful overhead angles of your child decorating the tree. For these images, I usually focus on my daughter's hand placing the ornament.
Before you consider adding a flash, try using candlelight in your photos. Candles are such a beautiful addition to holiday ambience, and they add a dreamy glow to a subject's face. We use them every Christmas Eve, and these photos (2.8, 1/40 sec, 800 ISO) are some of my favorites.
The Cookie Plate
If you leave cookies for Santa, don't forget to take a photo of the empty plate in the morning. This is a great story-telling image and a good detail to include for a Christmas scrapbook page—just one of the many details you work hard to create in making magic for your kids.
A Child's Point of View
Think about your children's perspective. What stands out to them when they walk out of their bedrooms on Christmas morning? After my girls are in bed on Christmas Eve, I try and take photos of the scene I want them to remember years from now. This way, I can be more in-the-moment on Christmas morning.
Your House
My husband makes a "reindeer runway" every Christmas Eve in our driveway. Are there special things you do outside of your house to lure Santa in? Don't forget to take photos outside of your home, especially at night if your house is lit up.
I think my most cherished photo every Christmas is the one I quietly sneak to take after the girls are in bed. I call it my "visions of sugarplums" shot, and whether it's blurry or dimly lit, it represents a year's worth of gratitude for me.
The Aftermath
A shot we often forget to take, but one very representative of a moment we all share, is the mess of Christmas morning after the hubbub. In this image, I focused on my coffee (that I finally had time to drink) and let the scene of toys and babies and wrapping paper fade in the background.

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
How exactly is this "jumping the shark?"
And I don't know what's a more ridiculous comment... that offering in-game noncombat pets that you buy with the same money that pays for your subscription fees and expansions is somehow "selling out" or ruining the game in some way. I guess this concept is just too "casual."
As for the other comment, about being against it but then deciding it's okay because it's for "charity..." What if a cut of the money made with all gold farming goes to "charity," would that be okay too? Simply because something goes to this nebulous idea of "charity" suddenly turns the thing into embossed gold?
Having worked with both the American Red Cross and the American Cancer Society for blood drives and 5k runs during college, and having seen peoples' donations squandered on garbage, corporate-controlled "research," marketing, advertising, and fat paychecks for "charity" execs, there is a reason I now only donate my time and money to small, local groups. Who do not advertise.
Yeah, I got me a little K'T, and the thing is wicked sweet. ;) Good job, Blizzard!
It is innovations like this that keep the game from becoming stale.

When I was in New Orleans, I tried a chicken and andouille sausage gumbo that was delicious. I had a similar dish just recently while visiting family out in California and when we returned home I decided that I needed to have a gumbo recipe as part of my own repertoire.
I was frankly, surprised at the ease of the recipe that I pulled together, not to mention the delicious taste! This made a lot of gumbo – enough for six to enjoy for dinner and still have lots of leftovers.
If you want to make this a little spicier, add between 2 Tbs. And ¼ cup of Tabasco sauce with the vegetables.
- 2 Tbs. Olive oil
- 2 lbs. boneless skinless chicken breast, diced
- salt and pepper
- 1 ½ lbs. andouille sausage, diced
- 1 green bell pepper, seeded and diced
- 1 large onion, diced
- ¼ cup flour
- 1 qt. Chicken broth
- 1 (28-ounce) can crushed tomatoes
- 1 (14-ounce) can diced tomatoes
- 4 cups cooked white rice
- Preheat a large heavy pot over medium high heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil to the pan, with 1 lb. of the diced chicken and half the sausage. Season with salt and pepper. Brown on all sides.
- Transfer chicken and sausage to a dish and repeat with remaining meats. Transfer to dish.
- Add butter, pepper and onions to the pan and season with salt and pepper. Cook 3 to 5 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
- Add flour and cook for 2 minutes.
- Slowly stir in the broth and bring liquid up to a boil.
- Add chicken and sausage, to the boiling broth, and then stir in the tomatoes. Bring back to a boil and then reduce to a simmer.
- Simmer for 5 minutes to combine flavors
- Serve gumbo over a scoop of the cooked white rice in bowls.

Frittata Mexicana
This frittata is reminiscent of nachos. Omit the toppings and it can be used to make sandwiches. Like most frittatas, it is good warm or at room temperature.
Solar Frittata Mexicana
For the frittata:
4 large eggs, at room temperature
2 tablespoons cornmeal
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup salsa
1 cup frozen corn kernels, thawed
3 tablespoons sour cream
1/4 cup shredded Mexican cheese blend
2 green onions, thinly sliced
For the topping:
1 cup vegetarian refried beans, heated
1/2 cup salsa
3 tablespoons sour cream
1/4 cup shredded Mexican cheese blend
2 plum tomatoes, chopped
Set Sun Oven out to preheat. Spray a round cake pan or pie tin with cooking spray; set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, cornmeal, and salt. Mix in the corn, salsa, sour cream, cheese, and green onions. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan. Cover and cook in the Sun Oven until set; 35 to 50 minutes. Transfer to a serving plate. Top with dollops of beans, salsa, and sour cream. Sprinkle with tomatoes and cheeses. Cut into four slices and serve.
Makes 4 servings.
Sun Oven Cauliflower Quiche
Any savory filling will work with this flourless dough. Don't mind the cracks, they weren't there before I dropped it.
Cauliflower Crusted Solar Quiche
1 cauliflower, stems and leaves removed
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1 large egg
1 tablespoon chopped flat-leaf parsley
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
6 slices thinly sliced pancetta
1 (10-ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed
5 large eggs
1/4 cup milk
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
Set Sun Oven out to preheat. Spray a pie pan with cooking spray; set aside.
Prepare the crust: Remove the florets from the cauliflower, discard the stem and leaves. Working in batches, pulse the florets in a food processor until they resemble cornmeal. Put the ground florets in a microwave safe bowl and cook for 5 minutes. Let cool completely, at least 10 minutes. Place the cooked cauliflower in a sturdy kitchen towel and wring out all the moisture. Put the dry cauliflower into a large bowl. In a small bowl, whisk together the egg, Parmesan, parsley, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Using your hands, mix the egg mixture into the cauliflower. Pat the cauliflower dough into the prepared pie pan. Bake in the Sun Oven until edges brown, 30 to 45 minutes. Leave Sun Oven out. Cool the crust on a rack.
Prepare the filling: In a skillet, cook the pancetta until just lucent, about 3 minutes; do not cook until crisp. Line the cooled cauliflower crust with the pancetta. Squeeze excess water out of the spinach. Put the spinach in a large bowl. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, Parmesan, salt, and pepper. Pour the egg mixture over the spinach, stirring to combing. Pour the mixture over the pancetta in the cauliflower crust. Bake in the Sun Oven until the filling is set, about 40 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Makes 4 servings.
Solar Quiche to Go
Make these delightful portable breakfast muffins your own by using your favorite add-ins with the eggs. Any kind of vegetable can be used and the bacon can be replaced with ham or cooked sausage. They keep well in the fridge for up to 4 days and are great for meals on the go. I like to serve them for dinner with a bowl of tomato soup and a salad.
Sunny Savory Quiche Muffins
5 slices cooked bacon, chopped
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 package refrigerated biscuit dough (10 biscuits)
6 eggs
1/2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
1 cup frozen chopped spinach, thawed, excess water squeezed out
Set Sun Oven out to preheat. Spray the indentations of 10 muffin cups with cooking spray.
In a medium skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the onion and sauté until soft, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Flatten the biscuits into 5-inch rounds and line the muffin tins. Top the biscuits with silicone baking molds. Start baking the biscuit shells in the Sun Oven while preparing the filling.
In a large bowl, beat the eggs. Stir in the chopped bacon, sautéed onions, cheese, and frozen spinach. Season to taste with salt. Remove the biscuits from the Sun Oven. Remove the silicone molds and carefully spoon the egg filling into the shells. Do not over fill*. Return the muffin pans to the Sun Oven and continue baking until the egg fill is set and the shells are golden brown, 40 minutes to 1 hour.
Set pans on a rack a let cool for 5 minutes. Run a knife along the sides of each muffin and remove the tins. Serve warm or at room temperature.
*Trust me on this, you do not want to clean cooked egg off the bottom of your Sun Oven. If you have too much filling use the empty indentations to make one or two crustless pies.
Alternative Protein Sources
What are your plans to provide alternative protein sources in an emergency situation?
As you collect canned goods don't forget about this vital nutrient. The human body is nearly half protein, found in muscles, blood, antibodies and enzymes which make other body functions work. Often commercially processed meats are loaded with salt to enhance the flavor. There are other sources. Here are some items to consider adding to your supplies.
- Nuts and Seeds – are high in protein and healthy fats. If you buy them prepackaged, they are ready to eat. They only last six months to a year, depending on the type of nut. Their high oil content reduces shelf life. Peanut butter is high in protein and available dried.
- Beans - are one of the longest cultivated plants, easy to digest and high in fiber. They also help maintain stable blood sugar levels by slowing the rate of carbohydrate absorption.1 Dried beans are economical and store well for an extended period of time. Store them in jars or mylar bags with oxygen absorbers. They will require water for presoaking before cooking, so plan ahead when preparing them. Cook with anise or coriander seeds to reduce flatulence as they're digested by microbes in your intestine. There are lots of varieties for your culinary pleasure. Canned beans can be eaten right after opening, even cold in a power down situation.
- Chia Seeds - have double the amount of protein found in other seeds. Humans began eating chia seeds around 3500 BC. Aztecs and Mayans considered them magical because they increased stamina and energy over long periods.2 Chia seeds are high in fiber, omega fatty acids, calcium, and antioxidants as well. Because they absorb 12 times their weight, their expansion in your stomach will curb your appetite.
- Protein Powders – are available in three common forms, whey, soy and casein. Whey is the most popular because it is a water-soluble milk protein. It contains all nine amino acids necessary to build proteins in the human body. Soy has been favored by vegans, but recently it has been associated with altering estrogen balance. Casein powder is used with cheese production.
- Textured Vegetable Protein (TVP) - is produced from soy flour after the oil has been extracted. It is cooked under pressure, extruded and dried. Soy flour has a long shelf life if kept in a cool, dry place. With varying flavors added, it can taste like sausage, beef, ham, bacon or chicken. Easily rehydrated, it is economical and an excellent meat substitute or meal extender. One ounce of TVP is the equivalent of three ounces of meat.3
- Freeze-dried Meat - has the water removed through sublimation, which turns water molecules into vapor. Freeze-drying food affects meat's texture more than other preservation techniques. They are extremely light and easy to carry but more expensive to purchase. While some fruits taste great freeze-dried, meat will need to be rehydrated.
- Powdered Eggs and Milk – made by spray drying, the process removes nearly all of the water prohibiting the growth of microorganisms. Non-fat dried milk is best for long term storage. Eggs are available as whole, yolks and whites. Store cool and dry. Refrigerate when opened.

Solar Breakfast Mini Muffins
These mini egg muffins can be frozen for convenient weekday breakfasts. They are also a great party food. And, mini muffin pans fit perfectly on the Sun Oven baking racks.
Sun Oven Mini Egg Muffins
2 small zucchini, finely chopped
1 onion, finely chopped
3 ounces freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Solar Broccoli and Potato Frittata
Frittatas are probably one of the few egg dishes that actually taste better the next day making them perfect for packed lunches or picnics. This one, with broccoli, potatoes, and cheese is a little bit like a fully loaded baked potato to go.
Sun Oven Cheese and Broccoli Frittata
1/2 pound red potatoes, well scrubbed and diced
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
3/4 cup scallions, thinly sliced
10 ounces broccoli florets, cut into small pieces
7 large eggs, at room temperature
1/3 cup milk
1/3 cup heavy cream
Solar Frittata with Rapini and Pancetta
I really liked the egg, rapini, pancetta combination of the savory pudding I made a few weeks ago but don't often have the right kind of bread on hand. This frittata delivers the same flavors to the taste buds without the extra trip to the bakery.
Sun Oven Frittata with Rapini and Pancetta
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 bunch rapini, trimmed and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
8 eggs, at room temperature
1 tablespoon milk
Easter Eggs and Asparagus
It's a shame to let any of those Easter eggs go to waste but if you're like me there's a limit to how much egg salad you can eat. Luckily, solar roasted asparagus is delicious with crumbled hard boiled eggs and vinaigrette.
Sun Oven Asparagus with Egg and Vinaigrette
1 hard boiled egg, chopped
1 pound asparagus, tough ends trimmed
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 tablespoon lemon juice
Savory Solar Bread Pudding
Rapini, also known as broccoli rabe, has a slightly bitter taste that pairs perfectly with pancetta. If you can't find it, or don't like it, use regular broccoli instead.
Sun Oven Savory Italian-style Bread Pudding
(adapted for the Sun Oven from Bon Appétit)
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 bunch rapini, trimmed and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
6 large eggs, at room temperature
1 1/2 cups whole milk, at room temperature
8 cups county-style white bread, cut into 1-inch pieces
Minty Solar Frittata
This colorful frittata can be cut into bite sized pieces and served as an appetizer. If you prefer uniform squares, bake it in a rectangular baking dish instead of a cast iron skillet.
Sun Oven Tri-Color Frittata
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 onion, thinly sliced
2 zucchini, cut into matchsticks
1 orange bell pepper, cut into thin strips
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

MADISON (WKOW) -- With the snow falling on Wednesday and the bitter cold temps expected on Thursday, it's a great time to make sure you and your family are prepared for winter conditions that could threaten your safety.
"The number one thing to do: make sure you have an emergency supply kit in your car; it could save your life," said Tod Pritchard, Emergency Preparedness Coordinator at WEM.
Pritchard says the kit could save your life because you never know when you might be stranded in a storm.
WEM says your kit should include:
You can find out the latest road conditions by visiting the Wisconsin Department of Transportation travel information website or by calling 511.
WEM says it's also important to be prepared at home. Some of the dangers associated with winter storms include loss of heat, power and telephone service and a shortage of supplies.
To help protect your family, WEM says you should put together a disaster supply kit.
Here are some items to include in your home safety kit:

Pritchard joins us on 27 News at 5 on Wednesday to talk about winter safety.

Hello. My name is Richard Jones and I'd like to welcome you to my free DIY London walking tours each of which will introduce you to some of the many wonderful places that London has to offer.
I have been devising tours since 1982 and have put this selection of free walks together in the hope that people will find it useful and will use it to help them explore and discover London.
You will find a series of in depth walking tours that cover a wide range of themes, such as Dickens London, Jack the Ripper's East End, Haunted London, Shakespeare's lost City, as well as a diverse selection of neighbourhoods such as Chelsea, Soho, the Inns of Court, Hampstead and Greenwich.
It is my sincere wish that people will get the most out of these walks and that they will use them as they see fit in order to see more of London and discover for themselves what a truly magical and wonderful City this is.
To that end the DIY walks that appear on this site are 100% free and it is my intention to keep them that way.
Each of the walking tours featured on the site offers you the opportunity to explore the Capital's better known and lesser known sites and sights.
They have been carefully mapped out to provide you with step by step directions to enable you to explore one of the world's greatest cities in your own time and at your own pace.
I've also put together a series of videos that will enable you to look at and get to know the streets through which you will be walking before you actually set out.
In addition to the planned routes you will also be able to read a great deal about the Capital's history and learn more about famous figures from London's past. In this way you will be able to to gain an understanding of the characters whose names will crop up as you make your way around your chosen route (or routes) and, in so doing, enjoy a rich and rewarding experience.
In addition to my free self guided London walks, I also conduct regular guided tours. These take place almost every day of the week and feature topics such as the Secret City, the London of Dickens and Shakespeare, Ghosts of the Old City, and my ever popular Jack the Ripper Tour. For 2013 I'm also pleased to announce a new tour that looks at London's more unusual and quirky history and which I've titled "It's A Funny Old City."
Of course half of the fun of exploring any city lies in getting there! London is no exception. To that end, I've added sections that will help you plan your journey to your chosen walk and ensure that you enjoy a trouble free experience.
I would, for example, recommend that you check for any travel delays before you set out. You can do so on the Transport For London website by clicking here.
Another important consideration when planning for your walk around London is what the weather is going to be like. Obviously you'll want to take appropriate clothing because, as they say, there's no such thing as bad weather only inappropriate clothing. You can check the weather forecast before you set out at the Met Office website.
and then dress accordingly.
I have tried to make the site as comprehensive as possible and have included, where appropriate, links to other websites that I think will prove useful to you whilst planning for one of my London walks.
I am constantly researching and honing the site and I will keep adding information as and when I come across anything that I think might prove useful.
Likewise, if you happen to spot something that you think might prove useful to others, or if you have a website that you think would benefit my readers, then please contact me and let me know about it so that I can check it out with a view to featuring it.
So, get ready to don your walking shoes and set out to experience the many and varied
magical treasures that London has to offer has to offer on this series of fascinating walks
that will take you through the colourful past and vibrant present of a city that has spent
2,000 years preparing for your visit.

Apparently taking a lesson from the Sarah Palin School of Awkward Answers, Mitt Romney told a rally attendee concerned about gun rights in North Dakota this morning that he likes "all the amendments." The crowd chuckled, and Romney went on to say that he'll defend the First and Second Amendments, and the other 24 too, it seems. Watch it:

Random BLK SOD-sometimes 5/night
ASUS US6E Win7x64 SP1 (4GB) bought 11 mos ago. Started out as BLUE SOD every month or so. Now getting BLK SOD--sudden reboots (black screen) even tho I have []Automatically Restart unchecked. Event Viewer seems only to record "system rebooted without cleanly shutting down." As many as 5/night--in fact just had one during my first attempt to post this. I have no extra hardware, no power software except maybe like Visual Studio and LabView, but they weren't running. Happens while reading pdf file, writing email or Word, or browsing (I have tried Firefox, Chrome, IE). I ran MS Memory Diagnostic (no errors) and chkdsk (read-only) no errors. Speak and I will happily try more extensive tests.
>> How wonderful this site with diagnostics and live help!. ASUS claims they have -no- diagnostic for me to use. I must restore orig configuration (I do have disk image) and ship (4 weeks turn-around). I have 1 mo left on warranty-- I am afraid I'll get the system back with a note "There were no problems" and I would wonder. If I can pin down to hardware--fine. If you guys can find software problem--super.
I have attached cab.zip. Sorry if I have some duplicate files (2) etc, I had already made an SF_xxxx then I got a BLK-SOD and, on the next SF_XXX, I mistakenly chose make-copy instead of overwrite.

Not your usual BSOD
Koolkat77: Thank you kindly, I was about to take the poison pill (restore W), but verrry reluctant. No recent dumps? THE BLK-SOD's I have been getting lately seem seem only to log a "critical: did not shut down properly." Months ago I saw some real BSOD's but now I only see a black screen and a reboot. No blue screen or dump, even tho those are enabled.
I only did a Windows Memory Dump from Start, very cursory. I will do Memtest86 (and chkdsk /R)
The driver is for a Gigaware USB-to-serial cable. Not even plugged in lately, but will uninstall.
Meanwhile, I did 3 sfc/scannow's and got "cannot repair" errors, but all 4 mention "Simplified Chinese--for example;
2012-09-22 01:21:42, Info CSI 00000302 [SR] Cannot repair member file [l:22{11}]"PINTLGB.IMD" of Microsoft-Windows-IME-Simplified-Chinese-Core, Version = 6.1.7601.17514, pA = PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE_AMD64 (9), Culture neutral, VersionScope = 1 nonSxS, PublicKeyToken = {l:8 b:31bf3856ad364e35}, Type neutral, TypeName neutral, PublicKey neutral in the store, hash mismatch

Thanks for sticking with me, koolkat77.

The first thing that jumps out at me is that you've had the Asus for 11 months. That means you have a month to still get it replaced under warranty and shake out the new one. Something to consider.
If you've not done one yet I'd first follow these steps to get a perfect Clean Reinstall - Factory OEM Windows 7. Everything you need is in the blue link. There must be a Windows 7 COA sticker on the machine with Product Key for your licensed version or they could not legally sell you the machine with Windows 7 installed.
Try making your Recovery disks first or save a Windows 7 backup image of your entire HD so that if the problems persist and cannot be resolved to your satisfaction you can Factory Restore or reimage and ask for replacement under warranty. You do not want to bring up that you did a Clean Reinstall because most OEM's will not support it even though it should not affect your hardware warranty.
|My System Specs
|24 Sep 2012
Thanks, gregrocker. That link will help greatly if and when I do a clean re-install. My plan was (should I have to do it) to re-install from the ASUS factory image on D:. Then restore my disk image and see if that helps. If not, I will re-install again from D: and recover as well as I can--your directions look superior.
- If i have to do a clean-reinstall is there a reason not to use the ASUS image on D:? I'm guessing that would be more specific to my hardware--for example, drivers for the ASUS battery, for the touch-pad, etc. I can puncture bloatware.
- Another concern is that if I ship to ASUS, they may ship right back saying "there are no hardware problems." I would wonder how hard they looked. I'm hoping to at least be able to demonstrate a hardware problem before I decide to ship.
|My System Specs
|24 Sep 2012
You can run Factory Recovery if it will run from partition or disks you make, however it is an inferior install which throttles Windows 7 OS with corrupting bloatware and useless duplicate utilities which have better versions built into Windows 7.
Drivers are covered in the tutorial. Windows 7 is the authority on its own drivers, not Asus or anyone else. This is not XP.
You might try running Recovery to see if it helps the problems at hand, then if not try the Clean Reinstall. If Recov is run from F8 as with most Asus' then it will not run from partition after a Clean Reinstall.
Either way I wouldn't waste much more time since the countdown to warranty expiration is ticking and you want the option to replace it.
|My System Specs
|24 Sep 2012
Hmm! Just as I get the BLK-SOD I do hear a slight click--perhaps like power-supply (i'm guessing here). But I have a working battery and the adaptor plugged in. However, the event-logs seem to have no relevant trigger before the reboot, perhaps like what happens when I hit the power switch (but I haven't tried that and will after I make this post).
|My System Specs
|24 Sep 2012
I hit the power switch on my ASUS. (Perhaps not recommended but sometimes necy when screen is frozen). What I see in the Event Viewer is very similar to what I see during a BLK-SOD. Namely, all Application Logs are Information-Level, as far as the eye can see. But in the System Logs, I see 1) A Critical-Level Log with Kernel-Power Source: "The system was rebooted without cleanly shutting down first" then 2) about 6 secs later an Error-Level Log with EventLog Source "The previous system shutdown at 2:13:23 AM on ?9/?24/?2012 was unexpected."
>> And the recovery screen looks about the same "Windows did not shut down normally, giving a choice of SAFE MODE, etc, or START WINDOWS NORMALLY. Perhaps I neglected to mention this happenstance.
>> Perhaps if I re-install, these BLK-SOD's will continue to happen, but it does not seem to happen a lot when the system is IDLE. (not sure). Perhaps I have to access a certain disk location or system file (I'm guessing).
>> I will try the boot-up /scannow now.

If the reports linking car designer extraordinaire Jason Castriota to Saab pushes through, then you gotta give up for the auto manufacturer; they scored a big coup on this one.
Castriota, the brilliant car designer who licked his chops and fine-tuned his skills while working for some of the most legendary automotive design houses in the world in the form of Stile Bertone and Pininfarina , has been responsible for some of the most out-of-this-world designs we've ever seen, including the Bertone Mantide and the Ferrari P4/5 . Now, Castriota is embarking on yet another challenge as he begins his tenure as the head designer for Saab.
As his first assignment, Castriota will be tasked to come up with a new design for what is expected to be the next-generation Saab 9-3 , a model that the Swedish brand is looking to integrate into a higher market segment where it would compete with a number of market mainstays including the Audi A4 and the BMW 3-Series.
Continued after the jump
In an interview with Bloomberg, Castriota was quick to point out the importance of striking gold with the next-generation 9-3, also pointing out that the breath of fresh air Spyker has given Saab will allow it to become a little more aggressive in their design compared to when it was still under the General Motors umbrella.
"It's absolutely vital we get this car right," he said. "This is Saab returning to its roots, not having to worry about being part of a much larger machine that they were before in the GM organization."
We don't know much in the way of designing cars from our own hands, but we do know that Jason Castriota has one of the best designing hands in the business and Saab definitely scored big when they decided to make him their head designer. Needless to say, we're now looking forward to the day Castriota's first Saab creation gets to break cover.

Color Crush: 5 Green Kitchens from Apartment Therapy
Since green reminds people of the great outdoors, it's often renowned for its soothing properties. This means it's both a lovely choice for the kitchen and a potentially helpful one — after all, it might refresh you when you're rushing to get dinner ready.
As these kitchens from around Apartment Therapy show, there are a variety of ways to incorporate green into your kitchen, from stains to cabinets. Even adding a few tiles can make a big difference, giving your kitchen an unexpected pop of color.
1. In Cissy and Richard's Relaxed Green Kitchen, apple green stain creates a great balance between modern and rustic style.
2. The green in Suki's Gem on The Hill kitchen pops thanks to colorful art and string lights.
3. Lime colored walls look fresh against a black-and-white tiled floor in Mandy & Michael's Crafty Charm House Tour.
4. White cabinets look pretty against a bright green wall in Sarah & Chad's Long Distance School of Style House Tour.
5. Kelly's sleek green cabinets garnered many compliments in her Small, Cool Kitchens 2011 entry
Images: As credited in individual tours.

I love all of these kitchens. I just painted our kitchen bright green a few months ago and I still can't stop staring at it.
My favorite green kitchen is the set for the later seasons of Tyler's Ultimate on Food Network. I did a search and found an image here.
Loved the retro green kitchen in "Six Feet Under."
Me, too! I think it's my all-time favorite kitchen ever.

Gold bracelet and red nails makes the sailor outfit complete. The panama hat is from Anine Bing, and is probably the item I will wear the most this summer.

Welcome to CalSWEC
Welcome to the California Social Work Education Center (CalSWEC), the nation's largest state coalition of social work educators and practitioners.
Hosted by the University of California, Berkeley School of Social Welfare, CalSWEC was created in 1990 by a partnership of social work educators and practitioners dedicated to developing a professional social service workforce to effectively serve California's diverse population. (Read more about CalSWEC's history.)
The coalition initially focused on public child welfare but in recent years has broadened its scope to include the fields of mental health and aging.

The new cast of MTV's "The Real World" will kick off the show's 26th season in a MASSIVE San Diego beach-front pad -- and TMZ has learned ... the house underwent some AWESOME renovations before the cast moved in.
The gorgeous, 5 bedroom, 6 bath, 8,600 square foot mansion has a pool, tennis court, and some pretty breathtaking ocean views.
Sources close to the show tell us -- the home's owner moved ALL the furniture and decorations out of their crib about three months ago -- fearing the typically wild cast would ruin all their stuff.
Once the house was empty -- the show staff added a FULL bar in the living room, a jacuzzi on the deck ... and turned the tennis court into a life-sized chess board.
... Because nothing says drunken house party like a life-sized chess board.
Because it's total "real world" to lock up a bunch of people in an expensive place to live and just tell them to argue, have sex, fight, and get drunk all day
Throw them in a repo house and make them work at Walmart and pay their own bills.
OMG! Get rid of this stupid ass show already!
,,my dream home. What a view.....Why would a homeowner turn this jewel over to this show is beyond.
Punk Rock inspired us to push the social envelop and set our own path. It's about being different and standing out from the pack. We've dedicated our company to all of those out there that have strived to stand up and question authority. Oi!
MTV needs to JOIN the real world. Used to be nice watching the music videos. Now just seems to be a POS network with wannabe famous loser idiots, producers, and writers. Miss the "old days".
Sorry, my day doesn't have enough hours for crap like that. If I want to see ridiculous people get drunk and fight I visit my extended family.
But I'd really like to have a life-sized chessboard at my place. I always have to walk down to the park to play chess on the big boards and sometimes all of them are already taken. On the other hand, I'd have to invite my chess companions over and some of them are very strange people...
only dirt nasty says palatial
How does a house like this have anything to do with the "real world", except for less than 4% of the population. MTV sucks.
I'd be surprised if any of them knew how to play chess. Where can you get giant checker pieces?
the show started in 1992, this is the 20th season
I have seen the house and took pictures. Their neighbor across the street was very nice and didn't seem like he hated the kids. He told me they drove a gray Kia suv. He was a guy in his 60s and very laid back, it's La Jolla by the way
Where have you been TMZ? All of the news outlets in San Diego have been reporting on this for months, and Vevmo.com broke the news over 2 months ago...
This show is so lame and played out. They should change the beginning to what happens when you put 6 retards in a house together. Any loser that would still go on this silly show are probably updating their myspace page right now!
They still make this!!!!!! This **** is what killed MUSIC TELEVISION(not on the $$$$$ level.) I remember the 1st season when the young girl from GA and Heather B were on there in a NYC Condo back like in 1990 or 91 getting the most attention.

This is a genuinely mythical film....It's about the myth of Fred and Ginger, Arlene Croce writes. It's a film that should have failed..after the team's earlier great films, like "Top Hat"...It should have failed, but didn't. It was Rogers, Astaire, Pan, and Born's personal favorite of all their work.
The music, lyrics, and dances are the best of their best, and remarkably integrated into a (I think) witty plot that has more twists in it than California's coastal highway. And, unlike the other Fred and Ginger films, it's not exactly an escapist film...since the characters begin the film with little money. Fred has only a quarter...and Ginger works as a dance instructor. They become upwardly mobile through their talents as dancers!
Lucky's shaky engagement, and uncertain state of mind, cause at least 10 changes of heart in Ginger's character....and this is the heart of the film's comedy...for the audience's point of view is that of the Helen Broderick character, who as Ginger's older and wiser friend, seeing the humor in every twist and turn in their relationship.
IMHO, the dancing has no real peer in any of their dance musicals...and I for one, rate this film even higher even than Gene Kelly's wonderful "Singing in the Rain".
The classic, sing and dance number, "Pick Yourself Up" is the first great, highly energetic, paired tap dance in film history...which Astaire/Rogers pioneered. And the "Waltz in Swing Time" and the "Never Gonna Dance" numbers are the finest expressions of the Astaire/Rogers chemistry. The first themed on the joy of young love...and the second about the sadness, and resistance, and disappointment of the parting...of a pair so obviously in love. And finally, "Bojangles of Harlem" is simply one of Fred's greatest achievements....where he first dances simultaneously with 24 women...before he outdances his own shadow...in a cinema-graphic masterpiece, devised by Hermes Pan.
And the music and sets! The sarcastic love song..."A Fine Romance"...in the snowy pavilion...is one of Hollywood's finest moments, all by itself...and, "The Way You Look Tonight" won an music Oscar for 1936.
What can one say...It just doesn't get any better than this. This is a work of popular art that aspires to one the highest art dance achievement's of the 20th century...by arguably it's best dancer and choreographer, Fred Astaire...paired with a quality, A-Level dramatic actress, who danced...Ginger Rogers.
This film is not only the top of its genre...It's the top of the top.

Hawks go under '24/7' microscope for Winter Classic
The Winter Classic won't be just a one-day trip to Washington for the Blackhawks.
Rather, it will be nearly a month-long invasion of their privacy. They will be tailed by cameras in the locker room, executive meetings, and even in their homes.
Part of playing the Capitals in the Winter Classic on Jan. 1 is agreeing to participate in HBO's "24/7," a behind-the-scenes series that chronicles both teams. Hawks executives declined comment because an official announcement hasn't been made about the status of this year's "24/7."
However, it will be coming soon, as the popular series has been a huge success in terms of marketing for the NHL and in critical acclaim; last year's "24/7" won a Sports Emmy for outstanding camera work.
The prospect of doing "24/7" was broached to Jonathan Toews and Duncan Keith by the Tribune's Chris Kuc at the NHL Awards on Tuesday in Las Vegas. They weren't aware it was part of the Winter Classic package.
"That will be our first experience to see who comes out of the woodwork to try and put on an act for the cameras," Toews said. "We have a couple of characters that might do that."
"That might be different," Keith said. "I might have to hide a little bit. Nobody can know my real personality. I'll keep quiet."
The Blackhawks aren't strangers to being followed by cameras. Patrick Kane was featured in a "NHL 36" film in 2011, there was a behind-the-scenes NBCSN special for last year's Stadium Series game against the Penguins in Soldier Field and the team's in-house Blackhawks TV also captures insider access for various programming.
The HBO series, though, takes it all to another level. The "24/7" name is highly appropriate because the Blackhawks will be followed 24/7 by at least three camera crews for several weeks.
Previously, the series has been broken into four weekly one-hour shows beginning in mid-December. If the format remains the same, the first three installments lead up to the Winter Classic, and the finale focuses on the game.
Last year, HBO captured more than 500 hours of footage for four hours worth of "24/7" shows. To document the most compelling and memorable moments, cameras need access to team operations at the highest level and during the most intense situations.
Maple Leafs coach Randy Carlyle admitted he wasn't an enthusiastic participant during last year's "24/7" for the team's Winter Classic against the Red Wings. He likely has that in common with all coaches, including the Blackhawks' Joel Quenneville.
"It's not normal what we're living right now," Carlyle told Toronto reporters during filming. "These people are professional people, they try to make it as easy as possible. But it's not easy to sit and give a team meeting with a camera and a microphone. It's just not normal for us. We've never had to do that."
Here's another element: There's swearing in hockey. Since the series airs on almost anything-goes HBO, all the bad words are heard in their full glory.
In the 2010 "24/7," then-Capitals coach Bruce Boudreau became a cult sensation with his remarkable barrage of colorful language. He even was chastised by his mother for not exercising better control of his mouth.
Yet the extremely raw chatter makes the series seem more authentic. Ultimately, it all melds into a complete package that features excellent writing, photography, game sound, and narration by Liev Schrieber. It is a stylish production.
For Blackhawks fans, "24/7" will be a terrific vehicle to gain inside perspective on the lives of players and coaches. The team also will reap considerable national exposure generated by the series, a benefit that won't be lost on President John McDonough.
Like it or not, the Blackhawks will have extra company in December.
Hard Knock Bears: Speaking of all-access series, the Atlanta Falcons might have done the Bears a favor. The Falcons volunteered to be this year's featured team on HBO's "Hard Knocks." Owner Arthur Blank isn't shy about being in the spotlight and views the series as a branding opportunity for his team.
Finding teams willing to agree to do "Hard Knocks" has been a major issue. The NFL, though, loves the series and instituted new regulations that would allow a team to be "volunteered." The Bears actually were on the eligible list this year since they haven't been to the playoffs in the last two years and won't have a new coach going into 2014.
The Bears always rate high on every network's radar, given their national appeal and the ratings potential locally in the nation's third-largest market. The Falcons, though, took them and other highly reluctant candidates off the hook this summer.
However, the Bears' time is coming for "Hard Knocks." Another missed trip to the playoffs, and the NFL could come knocking in 2015. Thus, more incentive for the Bears to advance to the postseason.

New Link Maps Feature
Majestic has just launched a new "Maps" tab on Site Explorer to help you visualize where in the world people are hosting sites that link to any URL, Sub-domain or TLD. A literal "Link Map" if you will. A few years back we ran a competition to come up with good ideas for our data. Wiep won an iPad with his entry. One of our developers simply had to finish his university course before having the time to see how we could implement this without the need to download all the data into Google maps. Here is what he has come up with:
By default we take the top 1,000 links and represent them on a world map based on the longitude and latitude of the server hosting the link. We can then aggregate these and represent the number of links by country. Hovering over the country shows the number of TLDs from that country linking to your URL. You can easily flip this to the to 10, top 250 or other limit if you prefer. We also have added the top 15 links using the red dot.
I put bbc.co.uk/news into the system in the above example and we can see a surprising 34 TLDs originating from the Netherlands linking to the page, but only 11 from France. This probably reflects the relative respect the BBC has in each of these countries. France has a long history of news reporting and if you asked a typical French user, I doubt they would choose the BBC as their first port of call for news.
Interestingly, if you start to analyse different pages on the BBC, we start to see distinct differences in the world map. For example, whilst the News page has 19.5% of top links originating from the UK, the Sports page has nearly 26.7% – probably reflecting the cultural differences in sport are more marked than for news. When the content gets increasingly localized in its audience, such as the weather page, this percentage jumps up to a massive 39.1%.
How does it work?
When we crawl the web, we use an IP server look up system to record where in the world each website is physically hosted. We store this data and now we have introduced this new representation. You can still download the referring TLD by country list as a CSV immediately below the map. Because we keep this data directly, we do not have to look up 1,000 IP addresses on the fly using third party APIs. This makes the visual representation pretty quick as usual. Something we know you have come to expect from Majestic when delivering link intelligence data at this scale.
Why does the BBC have so many links from the USA?
So many English Language websites are hosted in the USA regardless of the location of the intended audience. In fact – there is also significant hosting infrastructure in Germany as well, which may go some way to explaining the larger than expected German links to the BBC. However – this "natural" pattern of country bias merely acts as a the background reading. The insight will come by seeing the variations from the norm. This bias towards America is not always the case. When I typed in "Sports News" into Google.co.uk the top site was not surprisingly the BBC.co.uk/news. By translating "sports news" into Russian and entering this into Google.RU we of course find a completely different sight and therefore a different map with 63.2% of links coming out of Russia and only 12.4% coming from the USA:
What insights does this data give us?
As so often with data at this scale, the real insights will need to come from our users taking specific examples like the ones above and extrapolating meaning from the data. I do feel that this opens up a new area for market research – particularly in understanding behavior across boundaries when switching from one topic to another.
The data may also reveal a possible ranking signal. As the content gets more and more targeted towards an individual country, it would likely follow that the concentration of links from that country would also tend to increase. In short – if we were a search engine – we might use the weighting of links from a given location as signal as to the localized nature of that content – even if the content was not hosted in the country to which it is targeted!
So some questions for you. What might YOU use this map and data to understand? Do you like the map? Shall we give the developer a pat on the back?
Other Geo-based tools at Majestic
We also have a few other tools that express information based on the country code data:
- Majestic Million shows the top 1 million websites daily charted by country TLD based on their referring domain counts.
- Neighbourhood Checker shows the location of any website or IP number.
You will also see country data sprinkled through our downloadable reports and as a section in our advanced reports.
12 Responses to "New Link Maps Feature"
Thanks for that great new feature! The map is very pretty and impressive, but an extra pie/bar chart would be more readable.
This looks great! Now we can see where our brand is strong (or weak) and so focus marketing efforts.
I second the suggestion of a pie chart and maybe a bar chart for the data.
Interesting this should make it possible to see wich software is popular in wich regions. Will try this with some popular open-source project. As example to look wich distribution is strong in wich region. This might even be interessting for sociological analysis about internet usage in different countries.
Great feature! thanks for adding up.. Looking forward to play with this in-depth.
It would be great if we could have a Local Competition (similar to market samurai) also for Keyword Checker to check the number of competing pages per country.
Overall, MJSeo is a very useful tool!
This is a really great, new addition. It makes for a unique graphical way to say to clients that their brand is good in this country or that country. I've not seen Ahrefs or Open Site Explorer offer anything like this.
I am a very visual person, so I love this feature! And I love that I can create another pie chart if I wish
I don't want a pie or chart, just love the map as it comes. Very useful tool. Thanks!
Actually here in the U.S. BBC is respected as a source of world news, so I am not surprised this large country shows many links to the news site. And our public media (listener-supported) do offer some news reports or licensed shows from the BBC, so websites for U.S.-based regional or national public media outlets (NPR, PBS) may be another source of links (to acknowledge that organization as a contributor).

A leaked Department of Justice white paper outlines the administration's policy on the targeted killing of American citizens; in it, the Obama administration claims incredibly broad power to kill Americans with ill-defined limits on when this power can be exercised.
Granted, this white paper is not the actual legal memos the administration is basing it's authority on, but it is allegedly representative of what those memos contain. The white paper allows for the killing of a citizen if "an informed, high-level official" determines that the citizen (who has to be an operational leader of al-Qaeda in this white paper) poses an "imminent threat of violent attack" also, capture of the target must be "infeasible" and the strike must be carried out according to law-of-war principles.
The administration applies an incredibly broad concept of imminence for the targeted killing of citizens. From NBC:
The condition that an operational leader present an 'imminent' threat of violent attack against the United States does not require the United States to have clear evidence that a specific attack on U.S. persons and interests will take place in the immediate future," the memo states.
Instead, it says, an "informed, high-level" official of the U.S. government may determine that the targeted American has been "recently" involved in "activities" posing a threat of a violent attack and "there is no evidence suggesting that he has renounced or abandoned such activities." The memo does not define "recently" or "activities."
So just to restate, ONE, lone, unidentified "high-level" official in the government decides whether or not the American has been "recently" been involved in "activities" that pose a threat, with absolutely no test for determining what is recent or what exactly those activities might be. It also does not define what exactly the evidence is supposed to be presented to suggest that the citizen has renounced or abandoned the "activities".
Also, "infeasible" does not mean impossible. The administration argues that the capture would be infeasible if the operation to capture would pose an "undue risk" (again undefined) to U.S. personnel.
So in essence, if you were an American citizen that made it onto the Obama administration's kill list, instead of the government having to go through due process to prove that it had probable cause to capture you, and then prove its case against you in a court of law; you now have to prove to a lone official, the government won't name, that you weren't engaged in activities it won't define.
That flips the due process rights of Americans on their heads.
I have no problem with turning some jihadi in the Swat Valley into pink mist with a missile from a Reaper, that's not what I'm upset about here. Anwar al-Awlaki was also easier to swallow because while he was a citizen, he had openly engaged in the plotting and execution of terrorist acts, and encouraged others to do the same.
What I am upset about is the Executive determining that it has the power to extrajudicially execute American citizens at the determination of one government official based on an indeterminate standard that could be easily manipulated. There is a reason for the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments.
I wonder if those who decried the Imperial Presidency of the Bushitler over the Patriot Act, and screamed their heads off over the government seeing what books you checked out at the library without a warrant, will bat an eyelash when their darling President Obama vaporizes an American citizen without any judicial hearing at all.

Review of Me In Motion's "Yes We Can-EP" by a staff reviewer at www.NewReleaseTuesday.com

Perfection In Motion | Posted November 30, 2011 Staff Reviewer
It was a longstanding joke in the music industry that Christian music was always, stylistically, two years behind everything happening in the secular market. A joke that was often all too true. However, an evident shift has occurred in the last several years, where not only has Christian music finally started to rival that of it's modern mainstream counterparts, but those mainstream counterparts are actually finding themselves looking into the gospel genera for inspiration of their own. We have a plethora of game-changers in this industry to thank for this, and it would be nearly absurd to not list Me In Motion as one of them.

The Introduction of Price Signals into Land Use Planning
AbstractAlthough directed to the British system of Town and Country Planning this paper has relevance for many OECD countries, including some with systems of land use regulation which evolved entirely independently of the British. The paper starts by characterising the basic features of the British land use planning system, viewed from the resource allocation point of view of an economist. A conclusion is that the system explicitly excludes any use of price signals from its decisions. The paper then summarises the problems which the exclusion of price information has given rise to. Because the UK planning system has deliberately constrained the supply of space, and space is an attribute of housing which is income elastic in demand, rising incomes not only drive rising real house prices but also mean that land prices have risen considerably faster than house prices. Several housing attributes other than garden space are to a degree substitutes for land but the underlying cause of the inelastic supply of housing in the UK is the constraint on land supply. The final section proposes a mechanism which would make use of the information embodied in the price premiums of neighbouring parcels of land zoned for different uses. Such premiums signal the relative scarcity of land for different uses at each location and should become a 'material consideration' in planning decision- making. If they were above some threshold, this should provide a presumption of development unless maintaining the land in its current use could be shown to be in the public interest. If combined with Impact Fees, such a change would not only make housing supply more elastic and the system more transparent but would help to distance land availability decisions from the political process.
