Come and see 411 Topax, that really surprises us with their tremendous display. We all appreciate all the Christmas Spirit!

This is one of the best creative Holiday projects that was done in Alaska. Done like you’ve never seen before. This video from the small Yupiq Eskimo Village of Quinhagak, Alaska , was a school computer project intended for the other Yupiq villages in the area. Much to the villagers’ shock, over a half million people have viewed it. For your turn to view, Click: Http://www.youtube.com/watch_popup?v=LyviyF-N23A
History of Chamber Haunted House
October 26, 2011
In San Francisco this prime piece of San Francisco real estate was built by silver mine tycoon Richard Chambers. The story goes that Richard moved into the home with his two nieces, bringing with him a host of demons and ghosts with him. When Chambers died in 1901, the nieces inherited the home; one moved next door and one, Claudia, stayed in the home.
Claudia was discovered nearly cut in half one day. The family passed it off as a “farm implementation accident” but ghost expert Jim Fassbinder, who conducts haunted house tours in San Francisco, claims an insane family member who was kept in the attic of the Chambers home was the culprit. Recently a bed-and-breakfast, the home sold in 2009 for $3,400,800.

How to dispose of prescription drugs
October 2, 2011
I had decided to clean out my Mom’s bathroom cabinets, which were filled with old prescriptions from the 40′s, 50′s and on… Needless to say, I am surprised they are still in tact. My Mom still thinks one of these days she will be using them.
In the Bay Area, we are fortunate that our police stations in each city have a disposal bag inside the station. We don’t need anymore drugs in our water. I decided after cleaning out Mom’s cabinet in Michigan, it was time to do mine when I got back home. I think I need to do this on a more regular basis.

Honoring September 11 and Our Heros!
September 10, 2011
| Dear Americans,So this Sunday, the 10th anniversary of the September 11th tragedy, we will take a moment
to remember those who lost their lives and the bravery and self-sacrifice so many showed that day and beyond. We continue to mourn the innocent lives lost and remain in awe of the heroic efforts of those both on the ground and in the air who gave their all in hopes of saving others. |

| While our country was shaken in the wake of the attacks, Americans collectively chose not to fall victim to the actions of others. Rather, we rallied together with purpose to rebuild, help those affected, and
strengthened our commitment to the values which are uniquely American. We knew this, above all, was the ultimate weapon to defeat the terrorists. It remains so today. Regardless of whether you were personally connected with someone who perished in this tragedy, we were all impacted by this unforgettable event. So this Sunday, as we honor the 10-year anniversary of the events of September 11, 2001, we will take a moment to remember those who lost their lives and the bravery and self-sacrifice so many showed that day and beyond. This great country has faced seemingly insurmountable challenges through its history, yet the perseverance and confidence of the American people have always led to brighter days. It is our nature as Americans, and why our country has, and will always, be an example for so many around the world.
