Rated 5 out of 5 by Angie2325 from Nice and Comfortable The jumpsuit is as pictured. I had to return it because it was long and torso needed to be shorter. I ordered this one in a medium instead of the petite because of the price. The material is soft and I think it would reallh be nice with a blazer or jacket since its cold. I am 4'11 and 125lbs.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Camelush from Sexy and Chic I was looking for the perfect outfit for the New Year's Celebration. This is it! I didn't think it will look so elegant, but it does. I paired it with a black and gold metal belt and Bebe's metal cuff sandals. It is gorgeous! It is also true to size.

One day more than 30 years ago, my father came home to supper with a grim look on his face. At coffee that afternoon he'd heard that nine couples from our small town had met for drinks at a lounge on Waikiki Beach. They felt this was the highlight of their trip.
My father thought going halfway across the Pacific for a holiday only to end up hanging out with the same people from back home was ridiculous. And so a Hawaiian vacation became something of a topic to be avoided in our home -- a hellish oxymoron where you took your troubles to paradise.
Now, 35 years later, I was forced to confront an old prejudice when planning a trip to Australia. Sure, my wife and I could fly 17 hours straight from Vancouver to Sydney, or we could break up the trip with stops in Hawaii, as many experienced travellers insisted we do.
Just like most prejudices I picked up as a child from my father, my fears were silly and largely baseless. We wouldn't be travelling with a group or to meet a group. In fact, on the way out we wouldn't even be going to the usual tourist destinations, at all.
Through a combination of amazing circumstance on her part and great luck on ours, an old Saskatchewan friend now lives in Hawaii, or what is called the Big Island. She had been asking us to visit, so we came, flying through Denver to Kailua-Kona, then making the hour's drive north along the west coast to their town of Hawi.
They live on seven acres on the north side of town amid other parcels of similar size. Besides running a business out of his house, Laura's husband also keeps a few cows and some chickens; and the neighbours have horses, goats and sheep, as well. To a boy from the Prairies, the sight of cattle grazing beneath palms and among citrus trees is a bit of a jolt. Bright red cardinals, saffron warblers and olive-green Japanese white-eyes calling from fences and trees only enhanced the clash of the exotic with the ordinary.
But then, as Laura explained on a drive "over the mountain" to the city of Waimea (not to be confused with the surfer's mecca on the north shore of O'ahu), this area of the Big Island has long been home to an imported cowboy culture.
As we drove up and inland, through shortgrass pasture and cacti in yet another of the island's 22 ecosystems, she told us that early settlers discovered an environment ideal for ranching, so they brought in cattle and started training locals as cowboys.
Waimea, nestled at the foot of the Kohala Mountains, celebrates its cowboy heritage in statues, western stores and such venues as the Parker Ranch Museum, none of it the sort of thing I ever envisioned when I thought of the Hawaiian Islands. Indeed, a short visit was enough for me and I wanted to get back within sight of the ocean.
No problem. We could see the water from either Laura's place, or Hawi and the walk between. Hawi is a laid-back little place where, on a Sunday, locals gather in front of the coffee shop to grab a beverage and sit out front, listening to a couple of guys blow jazz on soprano sax and guitar. We found a great place for lunch called Sushi Rock and the namesake was fresh and imaginatively presented.
A short drive east from Hawi along the north shore of the island we stopped at Kauhola Point and then Akoakoa Point, watching the ocean crash against the rocks below as we listened for birdsong, and in between at Keokea Beach Park, where we threw our leis into the water, thereby ensuring -- according to local legend -- that we would return to the islands.
The promise came true three weeks later when we flew into Honolulu from Sydney, wending our long way home. But now, tired from nearly a month of living out of a suitcase and from this most recent, 10-hour turbulence-fest from Down Under, the thought of three days on the most famous beach in the world did not thrill me. Living the easy-going life of a pineapple cowboy on the Big Island was one thing, but hitting Waikiki Beach just as university students had completed exams was another.
We had booked online into the Miramar Hotel, a smaller place amid the Hiltons and Hyatts, just a block off the beach. At $89 US a night I could probably stand to get over some of my jet lag, anyway. After our overnight flight, we were let into our room at noon where a shower and change of clothes helped improve my attitude to hot-weather fun.
My anxiety over crowds melted away as I discarded my sandals and waded in the Pacific, laughing as all manner of surfers, children and guys like me practised on their rented boards. I paused to brush the sand from my feet, leaning on the statue of the great athlete Duke Kahanamoku, a hero of Hawaii who took surfing to the rest of the world and eventually served 13 terms as sheriff of Waikiki. Now I'm in countless pictures, bending over to put on my sandals, as Duke and his surfboard are a must-have for all photogs.
We rushed across busy Kalakaua Avenue to a hole-in-the-wall place called Furusato Sushi Bar. There were three chefs plying their trade, and we took a small table for two where we could watch the sun go down.
If we'd had more time in Waikiki, I would have liked to take an Oahu Nature Tour out to the North Shore. Justly famous for its surfing -- see the documentary Riding Giants -- the North Shore is also renowned for its birds, turtles and archeological sites. Alas, it was an all-day trip. So, like most North Americans when faced with such a dilemma, we went shopping.
The Miramar's back door opens onto the International Market, a colourful warren of little shops selling cheap T-shirts (mostly to do with drinking, surfing and Obama), loud Hawaiian shirts (of course I bought one), postcards, bags of seashells, silver jewelry and tattoos. I'm not sure where the International in its name comes from, but the place was lively and fun and almost impossible to escape.
But we did. And in our remaining day-and-a-half, we managed a meal up in the Kaimuki district at a place called the 12th Avenue Grill. It was nice to get out of the bustle of Waikiki for a few hours and see the city at night and from a few different elevations.
In the morning, we walked past the zoo but didn't go in. It was hot and we walked beneath the palms, doing a mild bake before donning our swimsuits and getting into the water, hats and sunglasses still attached.
Rolling about with the gentle tumble of the waves, beach bunnies and surfers frolicking about us, children laughing and shrieking at water's edge, I couldn't articulate to myself what it was about Hawaii I'd felt the need to avoid. I hadn't done or seen a fraction of all there was to do and see on these islands, having been lucky enough to see only two sides of their many lives, but I knew it would be easy to come back. We'd have to get out of the water, spray off and go pack, but for now we just smiled and let the water carry us. Waikiki Beach is a perfect place to enjoy the Pacific Ocean.
- Getting to the Hawaiian Islands is easy. Just about everyone you know has been there and they all have recommendations on what way to fly and where to stay. Listen to them.
- Take down names. Then go online and book your flight(s), your hotel, even your tours, if you want. I favour being on the ground before I do the latter.
- If booking online seems scary, contact a travel agent. Or get your kids to help you. Once I had booked the Miramar (on the advice of a friend), I phoned (they're four hours behind) and asked about early check-in and things like that. With the slow economy, you'll find that the tour people will come to you to offer their services.

|Packers | James Johnson improving
Tue, 14 Sep 2010 09:43:51 -0700
Green Bay Packers RB James X. Johnson has been improving in practice and could be activated from the practice squad, reports the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel's Lori Nickel. "He's coming along," said running backs coach Edgar Bennett. "He's getting better day in and day out and he's come along at a pretty rapid pace." However, Johnson has only been with the Packers for a week, and Green Bay could also look outside the organization. Head coach Mike McCarthy doesn't plan on making a roster decision until the full extent of RB Ryan Grant's (ankle) injury is known.

COT Data
My biggest reason for preparing for a very solid move up is how big money is posturing in the Disaggregated COT report. Producers have been adding to net shorts for a time now at -96,090 contracts, as Managed Money has been adding to net longs now at 30,379 contacts. Our friends the Swap Dealers are net long 52,416 contracts. The last time Producers had such a large net short position was back in August 2011 when cotton started the ride up to over 220.
If you need help understanding how to understand how to use the NEW COT report to your benefit get instant access to my new e-book "What Lies Beneath ALL Trends". It is filled with eye opening information.Commercial Net Tracker instructions: This form tracks the Commitment of Traders (COT) data for the commodity futures market. This form "looks" at the most recent five weeks of COT data and provides visual indications of the data. A) If the current value is at a 12-month low, the cell will display a red/burgundy background. B) If the current value is at a 12-month high, the cell will display a green background. C) If the current value went from net negative to net positive, the cell will display a blue background (indicating a bullish condition). D) If the current value is both a 12-month high and also went from a net negative to a net positive, the background will be green. You should view the data with green backgrounds to determine if they also went from net negative to net positive.

Nice Electro-House track, with funny voice of child (boy probably).
This project shows, that 3xOsc is one of the best synthesizers. It combines good sound and low CPU usage. I strongly recommend this project to beginner music producers, it was made with FL Studio 10, but you can open it with FL Studio 9 too!! There are no additional plugins.
Included MP3 (normal version), and WAV (loopable version) files – you can use it in your presentations, videos etc, and of course if you know FL Studio you can edit this track as you want. You can purchase audio files only (without source files) HERE (8$ only). If you have ANY questions please feel free to contact me!!

A friend asked: "Wouldn't you love to attend a wedding like that?" In a way, I felt I had. Yes, I began to feel absorbed in the experience. A few movies can do that, can slip you out of your mind and into theirs.
At its best in scenes featuring Hathaway's mercurial character. It's a triumphant and darkly nuanced role for her and a departure from the more lighthearted comedic performances she has given.
A film whose lightness of touch rides a wave of family conflict to perfectly balance smiles and tears.
The life that swirls around Kym before, during and after her sister's densely populated, wonderfully detailed wedding seems to have been caught on the fly in all its sweetness, sadness and joy. (In its free-form style the film constitutes an elaborate homage to Robert Altman.)

Iffy for 16+
Intense, insightful family drama celebrates love.
What Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that this intense family drama addresses certain subjects -- drug addiction, death, family dysfunction -- that may be overwhelming for younger teens who are drawn to it by Anne Hathaway's star power. But they're dealt with so sensitively and compassionately that older teens may find the film quite impactful. Expect plenty of swearing and social drinking (as well as discussions about alcoholism and drug use). Characters also explore dark emotional terrain, and adult family members are hurtful -- verbally and physically -- to each other.
Messages: A dysfunctional family, still mourning the death of a loved one, unravels during a wedding weekend. Feelings are honestly aired, and the words sting. But there's also a whole lot of love going around, and not just because the central event is a wedding. Though angry with each other and deeply confused, relatives clearly care for each other and wish each other well.
Violence: Screaming and arguing among family members. At one point, two relatives actually get physical, and it's ugly, though very telling. A character purposefully drives straight into a street sign and beyond.
Sex: Two people who are virtual strangers have a quick tryst in a dark room (hardly any nudity shown). Some suggestive dancing.
Language: Frequent strong language includes "f--k," "s--t" "c--ksucker," and "bastard."
Consumerism: Some mentions of Rite Aid, the Olympic Games, and the TV series Cops. Pellegrino bottles are displayed prominently.
Drinking, drugs and smoking: The central character is a former junkie, and there's frank conversation about things she's done while high. She also smokes. Several scenes show Narcotics Anonymous meetings; the 12-step process is referred to often. Some social drinking during a wedding and rehearsal dinner.

National Weather Service Issues Severe Thunderstorm Warning for Shreveport, Bossier + More
[UPDATE 6:55 p.m.] The National Weather Service has issued a Severe Thunderstorm Warning for Bossier, Caddo and Webster Parishes, as well as Harrison and Panola counties in Texas.
[UPDATE 1:48 p.m.] The National Weather Service has issued a Tornado Watch that affects several nearby areas, including the following parishes: Webster, Bossier, De Soto and Caddo. Panola and Harrison Counties in Texas are also included.
The tornado watch will last until 10 p.m. this evening.
[ORIGINAL STORY] A line of thunderstorms in Oklahoma and Texas that spawned several tornadoes, including the deadly twister in Moore, Ok., is expected to come to Ark-La-Tex this afternoon and early evening.
"The danger zone right now is over the Ark-La-Tex," cautioned NBC reporter and former KTBS anchor Charles Hadlock from Moore, Oklahoma. "I'm not saying you are getting a tornado like this, but the chance of a severe storm with a tornado is very high today."
The storm is expected to be in the Ark-La-Tex in the late afternoon, some time between 3 and 5. It will likely be capable of producing hail as well as more tornadoes.
"They may form a few super cells in northeast Texas, southwest Arkansas around 2 or 3 o'clock," KTBS meteorologist told Tim Fletcher on 1130 The Tiger. "They'll be moving down our direction at four or five."
The later in the day the storms come, it should allow them to lose some energy as the sun sets and temperatures cool down.
It's important to always be prepared for any situation, especially when conditions are favorable for flooding, or in today's situation, a possible tornado.
If you should lose power, always remember you can hear us on 710 KEEL with live updates with what is happening across the Ark-La-Tex.

Kansas City, Mo. (Sept. 28, 2012) – The Chicago Fire (16-9-5; 53 points) had opportunities on the road but saw its four-game winning streak come to an end at the hands of two Graham Zusi goals as Sporting KC (17-7-7; 58 points) prevailed 2-0 in front of a record crowd of 21,010 at LIVESTRONG Sporting Park on Friday night. The Men in Red currently sit in second place in the Eastern Conference with 53 points and a game in hand.
The Fire nearly got on the board in the opening minutes when Sherjill MacDonald found Chris Rofle open at the top of the 18. The Fire leading scorer would smash a driven ball just wide of the near post and out of play in the 6th minute.
But it was Sporting Kansas City who played the aggressor early and the home side was rewarded in the 11th minute when Kei Kamara beat Gonzalo Segares into space on the right side. The Sierra Leon forward dribbled into space and played a low driven cross across the penalty area finding Graham Zusi who directed the ball past Sean Johnson into the corner of the net to give the home side a 1-0 advantage.
An acrobatic Sean Johnson save kept the Fire within striking distance in the 36th minute. Zusi looked to return to favor, picking out Kamara at the back post. Kamara placed his header toward the top left corner where Johnson dove to parry the ball up and off the underside of the crossbar.
The Fire came out of the break looking to create opportunities to find the equalizing goal. The Fire slowly broke down Sporting KC's pressure and eventually found space on the counter in the 73rd minute. Second half substitute Dominic Oduro led the break and slipped a ball to MacDonald with room at the edge of the box. The Dutch striker put his shot on frame only to have it deflected out of play by Sporting 'keeper Jimmy Nielsen.
Frank Klopas used all three subs to push the game for the visitors. Two-time Mexican World Cup veteran Guille Franco made his Fire debut in the 71st minute. In his first action since May, Franco showed his skill in the late moments of the match. In the 87th minute, the Fire forward beat a KC defender in the box to earn a corner kick. In the 90th minute, Franco combined with Arne Friedrich before having his feet cut out from him as he rushed in on goal, but no foul was whistled.
Sporting Kansas City iced the game and became the first Eastern Conference side to clinch a 2012 MLS Cup Playoff berth when Zusi bookended his night with his second tally. Moments after Fire defender Gonzalo Segares had been issued his walking papers for a second yellow on a foul on Sapong in front of the Sporting bench, the home side found space on the counter attack. Sapong would eventually lay off to Zusi and the U.S. international slotted home the ball to give Sporting a 2-0 lead and first place in the Eastern Conference.
The Men in Red return home to Toyota Park to celebrate the club's 15th Anniversary against the Philadelphia Union on Wednesday, Oct. 3 at 7:30 p.m. CT (NBC5.2/97.5 ESPN Deportes). Fire legends Chris Armas, Peter Nowak and Cuauhtémoc Blanco will be in attendance to help commemorate the club's founding. Advance tickets are available by calling 888-MLS-Fire, by visiting www.Chicago-Fire.com or Ticketmaster.
- The Men in Red allowed more than one goal for only the second time in 11 matches.
- The Fire finish the month of September 4-1-0.
- With the loss, the Fire move to 11-4-2 with 35 points since June 17, 2012.
- The Fire lost in Kansas City for the first time since 2007.
- Fire head coach Frank Klopas was dismissed from the match and will miss the Oct. 3 fixture at Toyota Park.
- Fire defender Gonzalo Segares, who was booked twice by referee Chris Penso, will miss the Oct. 3 match as well.

Construction workers will begin paving some additional lanes on the northbound side of College Avenue on Monday, May 13.
Workers are adding these extra lanes to make room for a lane shift. They are making this lane shift in order to make room for construction workers to build the new bridge to Interstate 540.
Chris Brown, a Fayetteville engineer, says that the paving will take at the most two days.
Brown also says that in a couple of weeks construction will start on the actual flyover.

Whether you regard the final two games of World Cup qualifying the already Brazil-bound U.S. will play Friday in Kansas City and next Tuesday in Panama as an ending or a beginning, a journey that began under Jurgen Klinsmann in the summer of 2011 will have reached the desired destination.
The U.S. has qualified for the World Cup with two games to spare with a still coalescing unit that blends up-and-coming youngsters with wily campaigners amid hints of greater glories on a bigger stage.
"We don't view these games as the end of World Cup qualifying," Klinsmann said. "For us it's the start of preparations for the World Cup and therefore we have to continue raising the bar.
"The World Cup is a couple of levels higher up than World Cup qualifying," he added. "Everything we do now sets the tone for (the) summer of 2014 and therefore it's important the players understand this is serious business."
When Klinsmann took over he made it clear he would build a team around the experienced core of goalkeeper Tim Howard, defender Carlos Bocanegra, playmaker Landon Donovan and striker Clint Dempsey.
Today Howard remains first choice but is being pushed hard by former Chivas USA goalkeeper Brad Guzan. A rejuvenated Donovan and dangerous Dempsey look more productive than ever. Only the 34-year-old Bocanegra has dropped out of the national team picture completely.
Injuries to key players like Stuart Holden and Michael Bradley — as well as Donovan's lengthy hiatus — not only complicated matters but forced Klinsmann to look elsewhere as a matter of necessity.
The result was the unexpected blossoming of previously untapped talent, but that came largely from formerly under-appreciated U.S.-based players such as midfielder Graham Zusi and defender Matt Besler rather than the young unknown overseas prospects Klinsmann appeared to favor at the outset of his regime.
"Both … are really great examples of how you can break through to the highest level," Klinsmann said. "Their story also inspires other players. They see that these two guys broke through fast into the national team and they are usually starters in the team."
The qualifying trek was not without its bumps in the road, including a 2-1 loss to Jamaica and a punchless performance against tiny Antigua & Barbuda last year.
But qualifying out of CONCACAF is trickier than the quality of some opponents suggest, as struggling Mexico would attest.
A year out from the World Cup a still-building U.S. has the luxury of assessing its strengths and weaknesses without the national hand-wringing that sometimes accompanies such exercises.
The U.S. won't win the World Cup next year as Klinsmann already has said, lest anyone get too carried away by the 13 wins in the last 14 games and the notoriously unreliable FIFA world rankings that today have the U.S. sitting in the 13th position.
Let us not forget just a year or so ago, around the time the U.S. was eking out results, it had fallen as low as 36th.
Still, this is a time to look forward, not back, as Brazil beckons and the U.S. begins its World Cup countdown.
Also …
When Galaxy substitute Laurent Courtois entered Sunday's SuperClasico, he became the 11th player to appear for both clubs in the rivalry. For the names of the other 10, check out the 100 Percent Soccer blog. … Four Galaxy players are on international duty this week: Omar Gonzalez, Landon Donovan (U.S.), Robbie Keane (Ireland) and Jaime Penedo (Panama). … Ireland need a miracle to qualify, Keane conceded Sunday, while Penedo could add to Mexico's misery Friday — the two nations are tied for fourth in the qualifying group — before playing Tuesday against the U.S. ,,, Those players likely will miss the Galaxy's next game Oct. 16 against the Montreal Impact at StubHub Center. … Donovan provided the fun quote of the night Sunday in summing up the breakout game of Hawthorne rookie Gyasi Zardes, who sports a distinctive black and white mane: "He's a confident kid to keep that hair all year."

Cybersecurity Legislation and the Privacy and Civil Liberties Oversight Board
Along with a lot of other privacy folks, I have a lot of concerns about the cybersecurity legislation moving through Congress. I had an op-ed in The Hill yesterday going through some of the concerns, notably the problems with the over broad "information sharing" provisions.
Writing the op-ed, though, prompted me to highlight one positive step that should happen in the course of the cybersecurity debate. The Privacy and Civil Liberties Oversight Board was designed in large part to address information sharing. This past Wednesday, the Senate Judiciary Committee had the hearing to consider the bipartisan slate of five nominees.
Here's the point. The debate on CISPA and other cybersecurity legislation has highlighted all the information sharing that is going on already and that may be going on in the near future. The PCLOB is the institution designed to oversee problems with information sharing. So let's confirm the nominees and get the PCLOB up and running as soon as possible.
The quality of the nominees is very high. David Medine, nominated to be Chair, helped develop the FTC's privacy approach in the 1990's and has worked on privacy compliance since, so he knows what should be done and what is doable. Jim Dempsey has been at the Center of Democracy and Technology for over 15 years, and is a world-class expert on government, privacy, and civil liberties. Pat Wald is the former Chief Judge of the DC Circuit. Her remarkably distinguished career includes major experience on international human rights issues. I don't have experience with the other two nominees, but the hearing exposed no red flags for any of them.
The debates about cybersecurity legislation show the centrality of information sharing to how government will respond to cyber-threats. So we should have the institution in place to make sure that the information sharing is done in a lawful and sensible way, to be effective and also to protect privacy and civil liberties.

Revision as of 12:48, 24 March 2012
Getting Emacs 24
Emacs 24 still hasn't been released, but it's probably the best version of Emacs you can get.
Obtaining Emacs 24 on OS X is really simple. There are two popular ways to do it.
As a binary package
Simply download a pretest (or a nightly build) from Emacs for OSX. Probably the best option would be to get the latest pretest from here.
Build it from source
The second easy way to obtain Emacs 24 is via homebrew. Just type the following incantation in your shell and you're done:
$ brew install emacs --cocoa --use-git-head --HEAD
$ cp -r /usr/local/Cellar/emacs/HEAD/Emacs.app /Applications/
The second step is optional, but it's recommended if you like to start Emacs from the launchpad or from Spotlight.
Chances are good you have an older version of Emacs installed by default with OS X. It's suggested you to remove that older Emacs version to avoid conflicts with the new one. Do this:
$ sudo rm /usr/bin/emacs
$ sudo rm -rf /usr/share/emacs
That's all folk! You may now proceed to the configuration section.
Given that Linux is more or less the home os of Emacs it presents us with the most installation options. Of course, you can build Emacs from source on every distribution out there, but why bother to do so? Using the distribution's package manager is a better idea for many reasons - you don't need to install a build chain and lots of dev libraries, you get updated versions when they are released and you get automated dependency manager, just to name a few.
That said, few distributions include in their primary repositories builds of Emacs 24. Luckily there are some unofficial repos that come to the rescue.
Debian users should look no further than the amazing emacs-snapshot APT repo. You'll find installation instructions there for all the relevant Debian versions out there. High quality, highly recommended builds! After you've added the repo you can install Emacs 24 with the following command:
$ sudo apt-get install emacs-snapshot
Ubuntu users have easy access to Emacs 24 as well:
$ sudo apt-add-repository ppa:cassou/emacs
$ sudo apt-get install emacs-snapshot
Gentoo users have even less to do, since Emacs 24 can be obtained via the emacs-vcs package in portage, as noted in the official Emacs on Gentoo page.
Arch Linux users can install Emacs 24 from the Arch User Repository (AUR) with the package emacs-bzr.
Slackware users can compile and install Emacs 24 by using the following unofficial SlackBuild script: emacs.SlackBuild.
Unfortunately they don't seem to be any prebuilt Emacs 24 packages for any of the RPM distros (Fedora, SUSE, Mandriva, etc).
There are several ways to obtain precompiled Emacs 24 binaries if you're a Windows users. The most popular are EmacsW32, Emacs for Windows and of course the official Emacs Windows builds.
For more information about using Emacs on Windows, see GNU Emacs FAQ For MS Windows.

San Francisco crash continues to disrupt some Eugene flights
EUGENE, Ore. - Kasondra Campbell and her mom Karen are finally getting out of town and heading home to san diego.
"We've been at this airport for hours on end," she said, "and we're kind of over being here.
Kasondra and her mom have been at the Eugene Airport since Sunday morning.
They were supposed to have a layover in San Francisco, but because of the plane crash there on Saturday, they couldn't leave Eugene.
"We had to find a hotel and come back and now were finally confirmed for our flight," she said.
The delays worked in both directions.
Pamela and John Evanston finally arrived back home in Eugene after getting stuck in San Francisco.
"Lots of folks looking for hotel rooms, lots of tired people, lots of people trying to rebook their flights," Pamela said of the San Francisco airport.
The aftermath of a plane crash in San Francisco on Saturday continued to disrupt travel in and out of the Eugene Airport.
Over the weekend, at least 12 flights from Eugene to San Francisco got delayed or canceled, airport offcials said.
A mother and daughter trying to get home to San Diego finally got a flight after 24 hours in the airport.
Some flights were delayed again Monday, but a flight from San Francisco was expected to arrive on time.
Travelers are encouraged to check with their airline for the latest flight delays and cancelations.

WWE share price plummets in Friday trading
WWE has taken a significant financial hit following news of a multi-year deal with NBCUniversal that seemed unimpressive to investors.
The Stamford-based entertainment company announced the agreement with NBCU on Thursday to renew licensing for its Raw and SmackDown programs, then watched its stock drop 50 percent in early trading on Friday. At the close of trading Friday, WWE's stock dropped $8.66, or 43.45 percent, to $11.27.
The company also announced that it will require more than 1.3 to 1.4 million subscribers for its online WWE Network to offset the loss of its pay-per-view customers to the network. The WWE Network, which launched in February, finished the first quarter with nearly 670,000 subscribers, according to Bloomberg News.
WWE's chief financial officer George Barrios told Bloomberg News on Friday that the company is striving to reach 1 million subscribers by the end of the year, but did not comment on the stock price.
"With the favorable renegotiation of our largest television agreements, WWE transitions to a subscription-based business model for future growth," Barrios said in a statement. "Successful execution of our WWE Network strategy could significantly raise the company's earnings profile and better reflect WWE's tremendous global appeal and brand strength. With such execution, the company anticipates sufficient financial resources, including debt capacity, to fund growth, support ongoing business requirements and maintain its current dividend."
Monday Night Raw is slotted for a three-hour block on the USA Network and the Friday Night Smackdown is billed for Syfy. Based on this new agreement with NBCU, WWE anticipates a growth in operating income before depreciation and amortization of $125 million to $190 million by 2015, according to WWE.
However, this goal is now entirely dependent on the favorable execution and growth for the WWE Network, according to a report issued Friday by Daniel Moore, managing director of research at CJS Securities.
"Given management's more optimistic tone and the fact that other major sports franchises have garnered much higher increases, this outcome is likely to be viewed as disappointing by many investors," Moore said in the report. Moore noted in the report that the initial growth of the WWE Network, gaining 667,2871 subscribers just 42 days after launching in the U.S., is "a very good first step." CJS Securities revised its estimates for WWE in 2014, assuming less operating income from TV rights and higher expenses.
WWE previously negotiated distribution agreements for television programming in the U.S., U.K. and Thailand, and is discussing the distribution of content in India. These agreements are expected to boost the company's cable revenue by about $200 million, according to WWE.
The WWE Network is expected to launch in Canada, the U.K., Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Hong Kong and the Nordics by the end of this year and the beginning of 2015.
"We continue to achieve significant increases in the value of our largest television agreements, a key component of our business plan," Vince McMahon, chairman and chief executive officer, said in a statement on Thursday.
"The rising value of our content coupled with the global expansion of WWE Network will provide the foundation for long-term growth that continues to transform our business over the coming years."
Despite his positive outlook, McMahon's personal wealth took a severe downturn as the company's stock fell on Friday. According to Forbes, McMahon lost $340 million by 3 p.m. Friday, lowering his net worth to $760 million and bumping him out of the billionaire ranks.

NEW YORK (AP) — Justin Bieber is smooth with the dance moves — but is he just as good with a pair of clippers?
The teen sensation jokingly threatened to cut the long locks of his guitar player during his performance at Z100's annual Jingle Ball on Friday night at Madison Square Garden.
Bieber asked the crowd for its opinion on the musician's hair before getting back to the business of entertaining the mainly teen crowd, which shrieked throughout his show.
He also teased the audience with mistletoe — but offered no kisses, just a Christmas song.
Bieber was the final act in a night that also featured performances from Taylor Swift, One Direction, Ne-Yo and The Wanted, who made a little girl's night by bringing her onstage during "Glad You Came."

Hi, I often go by the names Rin or Effey (for my older acquaintances). I started doing cosplay in 2002, and still usually end up cosplaying the weird and unknown series. I specialize in cosplaying derpin' main characters, wanna-be cool-kei bros, and just plain crazy side characters. PS I love crazy characters, and I am really picky about the type of crazy. Haha. My list of favorite crazies include: Matt Engarde (Ace Attorney), Agito/Akito (Airgear), Nishizono Shinji (MPD Psycho), Hazama (Blazblue), Kotomine Kirei (Fate/Zero and Fate/Stay Night), Mitsuo Kubo (Persona 4), Moriarty (BBC Sherlock)
My favorite series are Shiiku-Gakari Rika, MPD Psycho, and Kara no Kyoukai. I also really love Sherlock Holmes, and any incarnation of (especially the BBC version).
I love making new friends, so feel free to add me to your facebook as well: http://www.facebook.com/slightlysalted

RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — Star Scientific Inc. says its CEO and several shareholders are investing $20 million in the dietary supplement company and its top executive also is reducing his salary until the firm is profitable.
The Glen Allen, Va.-based company said Friday that CEO Jonnie R. Williams and several long-term shareholders made the investment through the exercise of outstanding warrants.
Starting in January, Williams also will cut his salary to $1 per month.
The company cautioned earlier this week that it may need to seek additional funding to sustain its operations early next year.
Star Scientific had once focused primarily on researching a tobacco curing process that would prevent the formation of carcinogenic toxins. It has since shifted its focus toward the dietary supplements it sells through its subsidiary Rock Creek Pharmaceuticals.

On Order - P938
I opted for the Blackout version - and found a decent offer from Tooele Shooting Suppy in Utah. They had three in stock.
My friend in IA was also looking for the exact same version. We bought them within 15 minutes of each other. Seemed like a decent price to both of us.
This is the first pistol that I've bought for carry. I had gone back and forth for about a month on the various options - this one seemed to fit the bill best for what mattered to me.

I have a new P938 and I love it. Hope yours has just been made at Sig or you could be in for problems but call Sig and they will fix it. The date will be on the case the pistol comes in. Good luck and congrats.

Mine has been excellent. No problems, accurate, easy to conceal. It's the best pocket carry gun I've yet come across.

I just spoke with the dealer from who I am purchasing the gun. He said that he's been selling a bunch of them - and they are all recent manufacture dates.

Hope you have good luck with yours, mine has been flawless. Just needed a good cleaning and lube, and a box or 2 of ball to smooth things out. The magazines are a bear to load though, without a UpLula or similar. Very stiff springs for sure.

I just bought one day before yesterday. With the rosewood grips. I had gotten the P238 (Nitron) a few days before and it just seemed natural to pick up the 938 as well. Now I'm about to order the Sig Rosewood grips to go on my 238 because I like the way they look on the 938. I had gotten a pair of the Hogue black rubber grips and put on the 238, but I want the Rosewood too. lol
I picked up the 7 rd magazine for both as well. But no kidding on the stiff spring on the 938 mag!
Now I just need to find a IWB holster and belt that will conceal this 938 under my light weight summer clothes!! Otherwise it's gonna be sitting as a range gun and winter gun cause it's printing on me pretty bad...

Judging content credibility
Just because you see it online doesn't mean it's true. Teach your family to view all content critically so they can identify fact from fake online. Learn how to distinguish reliable sources from unreliable ones, and how to verify information you find online.
Advice from our partners
- Be a skeptic. Even if it's a "cool" or professional website, it may not have accurate information. Before you believe the information posted, ask yourself what's the point of view of the site? And what opinions or ideas are missing?
- Investigate the source. Find out who published the information and ask yourself if they are trustworthy.
- Always check the facts that you find. The best way to do this is to follow the "rule of 3": compare 3 sources of information. Remember to include one source with an opposing viewpoint. To learn more, check out the lesson plan "Become an Online Sleuth" created by Google and iKeepSafe.
- Get a second (or third, or fourth) opinion. Conduct several searches on your topic on different websites, using different keywords. This provides a variety of perspectives that may differ -- and will allow you to evaluate the credibility of a site's offerings against each other. And go beyond your usual sites, like Wikipedia and About.
- Search strategically. Think critically about your online searches so they are effective and produce relevant results. Use multiple, specific, descriptive keywords. There's a difference between searching for "hip hop" and searching for "hip hop for social justice."
- Pay attention to URL domains. The URL domain can be found at the end of a website address, and it tells people what kind of organization they are dealing with. Companies usually aim to sell products or services and display lots of ads, while organizations, educational institutions, and government entities usually aim to share knowledge and improve communities. (.com = company, .gov = government website, .edu = educational institution, .org = organization.)

Johnson scores 18 as No. 2 seed Kansas overcomes Hummel, Purdue 63-60 in Midwest Regional
OMAHA, Neb. (AP) ' Elijah Johnson scored 18 points, including the go-ahead basket in the final minute, and No. 2 seed Kansas rallied to beat Robbie Hummel and No. 10 seed Purdue 63-60 on Sunday night.
Thomas Robinson managed 11 points and 13 rebounds for the Jayhawks (29-6), who trailed nearly the entire game but still managed to advance to St. Louis. They'll play No. 11 seed North Carolina State in the Midwest Regional semifinals.
Purdue was clinging to a 60-59 lead and had the ball and under a minute remaining when Lewis Jackson, the shot clock winding down, lost control at the top of the key. Johnson picked it up and went the other way for the go-ahead layup with 23.3 seconds left.
Hummel missed an open 3-pointer at the other end and Tyshawn Taylor scored a transition dunk for Kansas with 2.5 seconds left. After a timeout, Purdue sharpshooter Ryne Smith unloaded a long potential tying 3-point try that hit the backboard and the rim before falling away.
Hummel finished with 26 points to lead the Boilermakers (22-13).

2012 Audi A8 Values
Select a 2012 Audi A8 trim level
2012 model year changes
Following a complete redesign in 2011, Audi's flagship A8 large luxury sedan returns for 2012 mostly unchanged. A new 4.0L V8 engine replaces last year's 4.2L V8, with a single turbocharger making 400 hp, while the 6.3L V12 engine gets a boost of power as well--up to 500 hp over last year's 450.
Competitive comparison
Strong acceleration and nimble, responsive handling; fuel efficiency; backseat room in A8L; excellent MMI interface; extensive driver-safety and accident-avoidance features
Special features for 2012
The long-wheelbase version of the A8, the A8L, is now slightly longer than the BMW 7-Series, Lexus LS or Mercedes-Benz S-Class, bringing an exceptionally roomy interior. The A8 still manages to feel more nimble and responsive than would ever be expected for such a large vehicle. A number of other tech features, such as the industry-first full LED headlamps and the next-generation touchpad MMI interface inside, are market standouts.

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — The Journal Register Co. will be sold at auction early next year, the company announced Thursday.
A bankruptcy judge in New York approved the process by which the media company will be sold, with an auction to conclude by Feb. 15 and the winning bidder to be revealed Feb. 21.
Journal Register filed for bankruptcy protection in September for the second time in three years and hopes to reduce pensions and other costs through a quick sale of the media company's assets.
The company, based in Yardley, has 18 newspapers and other media properties in 10 states, including the New Haven Register in Connecticut, The Oakland Press in Pontiac, Mich., and The Daily Local News in West Chester.
A company called Digital First Media currently operates Journal Register along with MediaNews Group.
Digital First said a bid was filed by 21st CMH Acquisition Co., an affiliate of funds managed by Alden Global Capital LLC.
Alden, a New York hedge fund, acquired Journal Register last year. Alden has been investing in distress sales of various newspaper and media concerns, including Philadelphia Newspapers, in recent years.

Exercise physiologists took at look at several six-week weight loss programs and determined that no, those products don't work, and that if you want to stop looking like a "dumpling," it's going to take at least six months of actual effort.

OGDEN — The Ogden School District announced Wednesday it will stop charging students participating in the Free and Reduced Price School Meals program.
District Communications Director Jer Bates said the district will eliminate the designation of "reduced" meals effective Jan. 16. Students who formerly were charged the reduced price will get meals for free. Students who don't qualify will still pay the full price for meals.
The decision to expand the program was made after "the district discovered that we have the opportunity to take advantage of additional state funds," Bates said.
Eight schools will benefit from this change in service pricing.
The remaining schools in the district will not be affected as they are designated for free meals for every student in the school.
Last year, 68,342 meals were served in the first eight schools designated for universal free meals, said Lunch Application Specialist Melanie Miller.
In August, the school district added four elementary schools to the free meals program.
> Ogden junior high schools benefit from successful MarketStar food drive
Polk Elementary, Shadow Valley Elementary, Taylor Canyon Elementary and Wasatch Elementary are among the schools that will not charge students participating in the Free and Reduced Meals program.
The other schools that will benefit from the expansion of the program are Highland Junior High, Mount Ogden Junior High, Ben Lomond High and Ogden High.
Students with a balance in their account may ask the school for a refund.
The case of Highland Junior High is unique as the school will become the first secondary school in the district offering free breakfast to every student.
The school principal, Stacey Briggs, reached out to the school district after Thanksgiving and asked for the possibility of having free in-classroom breakfast for every student.
"We have students who are hungry," Briggs said. "This is an opportunity to see if they can learn better if they have an extra chance to eat in the morning."
Briggs said more than 800 students could potentially benefit from the free universal breakfast.
"We've always kept granola bars in the front office but this will be much better," Briggs said.
Breakfast in Highland Junior High will be served at 8 a.m.

"KITT, I need you!" Michael Knight would scream into his watch, and sure enough, his computerized 1982 Pontiac Trans Am would come screeching in for a quick rescue. When I was growing up, the "Knight Rider" TV show was the pinnacle of cool, at least among my geeky friends. The car was amazing, of course, but I really loved the fact that Michael could use his watch to call it. And according to the official Knight Rider Compendium, his watch was the height of modern technology, blending cell phone communications with accurate time measurement.
Fast forward 30 years, and Samsung unveils the Galaxy Gear smartwatch. While not a full phone, it's designed to be able to link up with any of the Galaxy smartphone models, allowing users to make calls, browse apps and even share photos, all without taking their actual phones out of their pockets. CNN got a quick hands-on with the watch at the IFA consumer electronics show in Berlin, and it looked pretty impressive. In addition to acting as a companion to Galaxy phones, the Gear will have 70 applications when it launches Sept. 25 that it can run on its 1.6-inch screen.
At $299 each, and still requiring an actual companion phone to fully work, I'm not sure this watch will be the next big thing in mobile. Wearable computers have never been that popular, and I'm not just talking about the calculator watch that got me regularly beat up in high school. (By the way, KITT, I'm still waiting for that backup. Guess you didn't get my call.)
No, wearable PCs have tried for years to break into government, or the consumer market, or anywhere really. Back in 1999 we reviewed the Xybernaut Mobile Assistant IV, which was designed to make work easier for government employees. We thought it was the next big thing, but it went nowhere.
At a conference in 2001, representatives from the Army expressed cautious optimism that soldiers would be wearing computers into battle within two years. But that didn't go quite as planned, either. Microsoft, which is among the other companies reportedly working on a smartwatch, actually produced one nearly 10 years ago. It was deemed to be pretty good, too, but it also disappeared.
Some movement in this area was seen recently, with the military again trying to push the ball forward. This time the Air Force wanted a way for its techs to be able to wear a computer in the field. Something like the Motorola HC1 may fit that bill, but the jury is still out.
In one sense, the Gear has a lot going for it. Its limited scope means it can be lightweight, yet still run a lot of applications. And Samsung says the battery will last for a full day without needing a charge. Still, the last major device that needed to connect with a phone to achieve full functionality was the Blackberry Playbook, and while we thought it was perfect for government, not everyone agreed. It was eventually patched to be able to do everything on its own, sans phone.
I'll be sure to pick up a Galaxy Gear for review, though the disappointment when my 2010 Hyundai Elantra refuses to answer my calls may be too crushing.

Hi John Breeden. I just wanted to say that I really love your blogs. They are interesting to read and always make me laugh. I had a poster of The Hoff on my wall growing up, sitting on his TransAm and talking to his watch, wearing far too tight jeans. Thanks for the memory.
Having used the pebble watch for several weeks, I believe there will be a market for a minimalist type watch that simply provides an ability to see text and emails come in and phone calls vibrate on your wrist regardless of whether the phone is in your back pocket or in another room of the house. It has been incredibly useful to NOT carry my phone all around the house and it allows me to shut my ringer and tones off at work completely espcially during meetings but still know if anything urgent has popped up - all without staring at your phone. Beyond that, 5-7 day without charging is a huge plus. I agree a mini-phone on your wrist like the samsung at 299 is far more than I would ever want as well so, for me, the Pebble is resonably priced and adds value to my phone vs. replacing it.

Exclusive Windows XP SP2 Will Include Concurrent Sessions
Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2) will include a long awaited concurrency feature that will let multiple users connect simultaneously to the same PC. The feature is mysteriously absent in the current SP2 beta release and how Microsoft will implement the feature and how many concurrent interactive users it will support is unclear but a Microsoft representative confirmed to me this week that the concurrent sessions feature called multisessions internally is happening. The next XP Media Center Edition (MCE) version due this fall will use the feature to enable as many as five Media Center sessions to remote Windows Media Center Extender devices.
Hell Freezes Over as HP Announces iPod Pact with Apple
HP stunned onlookers this week when it announced that it will license the iPod from Apple Computer and bundle Apple's iTunes application with select consumer oriented PCs. Sometime this summer HP will ship an HP branded iPod portable music player that will feature a unique blue color, the company told me. Given HP's strong relationship with Microsoft, the Apple deal comes as a surprise. But HP's PC competitors including companies such as Dell and Gateway have launched their own digital music strategies and partnered with other companies to get into the market quickly. Clearly HP felt that the Apple deal would give it a unique competitive position.
Exclusive HP Working to Get WMA on iPod
HP's blockbuster deal with Apple will have one exciting side effect, I discovered today. The company will be working with Apple to add support for Microsoft's superior Windows Media Audio (WMA) format to the iPod by mid year. You heard it here first.
Proposed Longhorn Name Windows SC
I was sitting through yet another Microsoft seamless computing presentation at CES with Keith Furman, a Windows & NET Magazine news editor when Keith said, "That's what they should call Longhorn Windows SC for seamless computing." You know, his suggestion almost makes sense.
Microsoft Your Digital Content in Any Room in the House at Any Time
Microsoft's plan to have Windows Media Center Extender devices remotely use XP Media Center content i.e. digital music photos movies and recorded TV is a good strategy that will nicely obviate the one huge complaint I have with Media Center PCs: they're too obtrusive in rooms such as the den. After using a Media Center PC in my den for 2 years I feel reasonably sure that the machine isn't a viable solution for most people. Nevertheless, I can't live without it. Under the new scheme which will become reality this fall and require a new MCE update; don't worry, it's a software only update users will be able to put inexpensive quiet and reliable Windows Media Center Extender devices in the rooms that have nice TVs and stereo systems and leave those ugly loud PCs back in the home office in which they belong.
The Register Has Some Splainin to Do
The UK online magazine, The Register, reported on the eve of CES that Microsoft planned to drop XP MCE just as the company had quietly dropped its Smart Display technology a few weeks earlier. The report has just one problem. It isn't true. Perhaps more damning, XP MCE was the centerpiece of Microsoft's presence at CES and the company's consumer oriented plans for the next year and Microsoft Chairman and Chief Software Architect, Bill Gates, devoted more than 50 percent of his keynote address to the topic.
Portable Media Center Devices Will Blow You Away
This week at CES I spent some time with three Portable Media Center devices from Creative iRiver and Samsung, and wow! These devices are going to blow you away! Expect prices in the $400 to $600 range 20GB to 40GB hard disks and 3 hours of battery life when watching video, the battery life jumps to 12 hours when listening to audio. I'll post a big preview on the SuperSite for Windows soon, but rest assured these devices are going to be the must have gift for the 2004 holiday season.
MSN Provides Free High Quality Video Streaming Service
Take that CNN and RealNetworks! MSN.com is now offering high quality 700Kbps and 300Kbps streaming video with content from the Discovery Channel and TLC, NBC News, and a huge selection of other content providers. And it's free! The service isn't just free for MSN, Dial up, MSN Plus, or MSN Premium customers, it's free for everyone. That statement is pretty powerful in this era of subscription only video offerings on other sites, but MSN Group Product Manager Lisa Gurry told me that Microsoft's Drizzle technology which Automatic Updates also uses and the luxury of having a popular site that draws so much advertising makes this offering a no brainer. Check it out and see for yourself.
Microsoft WMA Is Kicking Butt
And speaking of streaming video Microsoft announced at CES that its WMA format is now supported on more than 500 devices including portable music players DVD players personal video recorders and amplifiers Furthermore the company notes the installed base of portable media players that support Microsoft s Digital Rights Management DRM platform now numbers more than 4 million more than twice the number of iPods which use a competing DRM scheme p p Smart Watches Ship br As promised Fossil shipped its new Smart Personal Objects Technology SPOT watches during CES at two stores in Las Vegas Nevada and Keith and I picked up two of them to check out the new features Our opinion is that the watches are cool not as big as we had feared and appear to work well We ll have more information about the SPOT watches after we ve had a chance to really see how they work but our initial reaction is overwhelmingly positive with one notable exception How could Fossil ship these watches without the much needed and much touted vibration alert feature p p WMV HD Goes Hollywood with 16 New DVDs br After a successful trial with the Extreme Edition DVD of Terminator 2 Judgment Day last year various Hollywood moviemakers are releasing 16 new DVDs in the coming days that will contain special second disks with 1080p Windows Media High Definition Video WMV HD versions of the films offering users an unparalleled video experience The WMV HD versions of the films which will ship from companies such as Artisan IMAX and National Geographic will feature 5 1 channel surround sound and require a 2 4GHz or faster XP based PC running Windows Media Player WMP 9 Series The first film the gorgeous Coral Reef Adventure is available now For more information about WMV HD check out the Microsoft Web site br http www wmvhd com p p Jobs s Disappointing Macworld Keynote Address Makes Even Gates Look Good br Lost amid all the hubbub of CES was the start of Macworld Conference amp Expo which opened Tuesday with an unexciting Steve Jobs keynote Jobs usually kills at these events delivering a slew of exciting products to a friendly crowd eager to lap up whatever he has to offer But even the most crazed Apple fan has to admit that this Macworld conference was the lamest since Jobs returned to the company with few exciting new products The new iPod minis are cute but predictable and vastly overpriced Garage Band a music mixing application targets the smallest possible market The new iLife application although interesting isn t shipping yet and won t be free Apple didn t present any faster Power Mac G5s cheaper PowerBooks or iPods or Apple branded office productivity tools as many rumor sites had hoped All in all Macworld was a rather boring affair.
Predictable Open Source Advocates Decry Microsoft Anti Linux Ads
Microsoft's recent ad campaign that pits Linux against Windows has engendered an unintentionally hilarious but predictable reaction from the open source community with various Linux advocates crying foul over what they call Microsoft's misleading analysis. The biggest problem seems to be that Microsoft commissioned some of the reports the ads cite but the company has been upfront about that situation and claims that such funding is a common industry practice. Watching the open source guys fall all over each other trying to be the first to disprove the Microsoft claims about Linux is what I find really funny. We get it guys, you don't like Microsoft.
Microsoft Caves Lets Israel Buy Partial Office Suites
Israel's decision to stop buying Microsoft software has had the desired effect with Microsoft caving to the country's demands and letting Israel's Finance Ministry license only the Microsoft Office suite components it needs Israel had previously announced that it wouldn't purchase any more Microsoft software because the company wouldn't let it license only the software it needed a provision the country found untenable. As a result, Israel said that it would back the development of open source alternatives to Office and other Microsoft products.

Justin Bieber had marijuana, Xanax in his system during Miami arrest
Justin Bieber had marijuana and prescription drug Xanax in his system when he was arrested earlier this month in Miami, Florida, according to his toxicology report.
The pop star was detained by police last week on suspicion of driving under the influence, resisting arrest without violence and driving with an expired licence, and is currently free on bail.
The drug test was administered immediately following the arrest and results show Bieber had THC (ingredient in marijuana) and Alprazolam (ingredient in Xanax) in his system, but he tested negative for cocaine, opiates, meth and other drugs.
Blood alcohol level results were not listed in the toxicology reports obtained by editors at TMZ.com.
Bieber reportedly told police officers he had been smoking marijuana before he was pulled over and that his mother gave him the Xanax.
The singer has pleaded not guilty to the charges and is due back in court on Valentine's Day (14Feb14).
Meanwhile, the 19 year old turned himself in to police in Toronto on Wednesday and was officially charged in connection to an alleged assault on a limousine driver in the city last year.
He is scheduled to appear in court for that case on March 10.
