The 'Liz & Dick' star - who is set to appear in court on January 15, 2013 after her probation was revoked earlier this month because she allegedly lied to police about being behind the wheel of a car crash in June - was spotted checking into the plush hotel The Dorchester in an expensive fur coat earlier on Saturday.
According to gossip website TMZ.com, the 26-year-old actress wants to start next year off on a better note by avoiding the party scene in favour of a more low key celebration with close friends.
The troubled starlet - who has previously enjoyed New Year's Eve celebrations in Italy and St. Barts - has reportedly told friends she wants to stay home and plans to completely abstain from alcohol.
She is instead planning a small, quiet dinner and wants to be tucked up in bed well before midnight.
Her latest love interest British singer Max George from The Wanted is due to spend New Year's Eve in New York where his band are performing.
Lindsay allegedly isn't concerned about her looming court hearing next month because she believes she hasn't done anything wrong.
A source previously said: "We are not sure if Lindsay knows how serious this is. She has been in front of judges so many times at this point that she's not particularly worried. Lindsay has total faith in her lawyer and the criminal justice system. As far as she's concerned she did nothing wrong."
Lindsay was previously said to have recently agreed she had hit rock bottom and needed professional help but claimed she doesn't have the money to hire a psychiatrist as she is currently in debt.

Getty ImagesIn a development that arguably says as much (or as little) about the Eagles? players as it does about Mike Vick?s leadership skills (or lack thereof), Vick lambasted his soon-to-be former teammates on Monday.
Per CSNPhilly.com, Vick complained about the players? ?lack of effort,? which he described as ?very evident.?
?It?s all about focus, dedication and commitment,? Vick said. ?Until you get guys who are willing to better themselves week in and week out and want to win, you?re not going to win.? And I haven?t played with guys like that.? It?s unfortunate for coach thing turned out the way they are.? It could have been a lot better.? This locker room could have dictated that.?
It?s ironic, to say the least.? Vick was precisely that guy for the first six years of his career.? And some believe that he has reverted to being complacent since putting together an MVP-caliber performance in 2010.
Vick said the lack of effort from the other players ?pisses [him] off.?
And Vick said that he?s not to blame.? ?I give 110 percent effort,? Vick said.? ?My body is scarred up all year.? I?m hurt, I?m bruised, get up after every hit and still try and fight and push.? I do that for my coaches.? I do that for my teammates.? And I would expect the same thing in return.?
Vick admitted that the outcome arose at least in part from his failure to assert himself in the locker room.
?I should have done it,? Vick said.? ?But I tried to take the modest approach, I tried to lead by example.? I held a team meeting and tried to help guys recommit.? It was still the same thing over and over again.? I?m not going to tell a grown man the same thing twice because the reason I ended up incarcerated was because people told me the same thing over and over again and I didn?t listen.? I feel like if you don?t learn in the first go-around, you disregard it.? You just deal with the consequences because there will always be consequences.?
But here?s where Vick?s logic falls apart.? Vick was in the past surrounded by a bunch of ?yes? men and enablers.? A football team commands leadership ? and it holds accountable those who don?t respond.
Ultimately, Vick?s remarks aren?t the ideal way to persuade other teams that he?s suited to provide leadership in a new city.

Getty ImagesUniversity of Oregon head coach Chip Kelly isn?t the only Pac-12 head coach who is getting attention as a possible head coach in the NFL.
Washington head coach Steve Sarkisian is also being rumored as a possibility for making the jump to the professional ranks.
Sarkisian served as the quarterback coach for the Oakland Raiders under Norv Turner in 2004 before returning to the collegiate ranks. Under Sarkisian, quarterbacks Rich Gannon and Kerry Collins threw for 3,934 yards and were the eighth-ranked passing attack in the NFL.
Raiders owner Al Davis circled back to Sarkisian in 2007 and offered him the head coaching job after a 2-14 season with Art Shell at the helm. Sarkisian declined and chose to remain at USC. The Raiders hired fellow USC assistant Lane Kiffin instead.
?Being a head coach in the National Football League, there?s only 32 of them in the world,? Sarkisian said in 2011, via Bob Condotta of the Seattle Times. ?In a lot of ways, that?s the pinnacle of our profession. So when you have to make those tough decisions, you have to look at them all individually and take the face off of it, and take the jerseys off of it. ? So when the opportunity came, I had to try to remove the emotion of I-get-to-go-coach-the-Oakland-Raiders and is this the best thing for my family? For myself, for my family and for our careers as we move forward? And I just didn?t feel like it was the right time to be taking that job.?
Sarkisian also turned down a chance to interview with the St. Louis Rams last season.
In his four seasons with the Washington Huskies, Sarkisian has managed to turn around a program that had sunk to unprecedented lows. Sarkisian inherited a team that went 0-12 in 2008 and hadn?t been to a bowl game since 2002. Since then, the Huskies have strung together three straight 7-6 seasons with three straight bowl appearances. The turnaround helped spearhead a much-needed $250 million renovation of Husky Stadium that will be completed this summer.
Sarkisian made a pair of big impact coaching hires a year ago bringing in defensive coordinator Justin Wilcox from Tennessee and highly regarded recruiter Tosh Lupoi from California. Wilcox helped a porous defense improve immensely in his first season. The Huskies allowed 153 fewer points in 2012 and nearly 100 fewer yards a game (95.9 yards/game).
The team that returns for Sarkisian in 2013 may be the most talented of his tenure. He?s had five seasons to help correct serious depth deficiencies and has a slew of offensive weapons in receiver Kasen Williams, tight end Austin Seferian-Jenkins and running back Bishop Sankey.
Sarkisian has also said that his time with the Raiders left him with a fairly unsavory taste in his mouth. He said he enjoys being able to coach kids at a younger age with the opportunity to help put them on the right path for life after college. With Kelly rumored to be leaving Oregon and the Ducks possibly about to be hit with sanctions for recruiting violations, the door could be cracking open for the Huskies to re-emerge as a threat at the top of the Pac-12 conference.
There may come a point where Sarkisian wants to give the NFL another shot, but with a renovated stadium and a program seemingly on the verge of taking a sizable step forward it seems unlikely Sarkisian will decide to make that move this year.

These devices no doubt help in easy and fast communication but have we considered the effects they have on our written and spoken communication skills, especially our students??
Today, words are abbreviated in chat platforms to the extent that most students find it difficult to spell some words correctly, place punctuations appropriately, or even differentiate tenses. Examples; I don?t know becomes ?dunno?, okay becomes ?kk?, what is going on becomes ?sup?, don?t becomes ?dnt?, bother becomes ?boda? and the list goes on and on. It is at such moments that I praise some universities that ban the use of smart phones on campus.
Secondly, have we observed that some persons who are able to use these abbreviated words so much and type so fast with their phones during chats find it quite difficult to speak as effectively when physically present before their chat mates?
These are only my thoughts anyway. I will appreciate your comments as well.
Compliments.

A lot of people on Nairaland would rather write in 'text' language than the actual language thereby making it difficult to read/understand. Once you start writing that way consistently, you get used to it and it becomes the norm for you.
I can understand the need for 'text' words based on the number of characters you're restricted to in SMS
I'd rather read a sentence constructed in broken/pidgin English than in 'text' language outside of actual mobile texting, it does my head in

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. shrimp producers filed a petition on Friday asking the Commerce Department to impose punitive duties on billions of dollars of shrimp from China, Vietnam, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand and Ecuador to offset what they said were unfair foreign government subsidies.
"Today's filing is about the survival of the entire U.S. shrimp industry," C. David Veal, executive director of the Coalition of Gulf Shrimp Industries, said in a statement.
The group represents shrimp fisherman in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas who say they have lost U.S. market share to lower-priced imports from the six countries in Asia and the one in South America.
"Our harvesters, docks, and processors have all played a vital role in the economy and culture of the Gulf region throughout its history. This case will help determine whether together we can continue to create jobs, contribute to economic growth, and sustain communities across the Gulf states for years to come," Veal said.
The request could be awkward for the United States because it is engaged in regional free-trade talks with two of the countries targeted by the petition, Vietnam and Malaysia.
The threat of punitive U.S. duties on their shrimp exports could make those countries reluctant to agree to U.S. demands for market-opening in other sectors.
The seven countries named in the petition exported $4.3 billion worth of shrimp to the United States in 2011, accounting for 85 percent of U.S. imports and over three-quarters of the domestic market, the U.S. industry group said.
The Commerce Department has several weeks to decide whether to launch an investigation. Assuming it does, final countervailing duties could be in place by the end of 2013 if illegal foreign subsidies are found, the group said.

It?s a travel itinerary as eclectic as they come: From a gas station shaped like a UFO, to an inn once proclaimed one of the most magnificent hotels in the country, to mystical rock pillars that fascinated an ancient culture.
Put them all together and you have part of a collection that may make history buffs smile and explorers reach for their maps.
Behold the list of ?Preservation Wins of 2012? put together by the National Trust for Historic Preservation, a nonprofit organization that has made it its mission to save America?s historic sites.
?These are places that were threatened in some way ? whether it was demolishing them or (fearing they would) fail and maybe they wouldn?t be preserved ? and essentially, they ended up being maintained or restored,? said Rebecca Morgan, a spokeswoman for the trust.
The list was assembled in no particular order???Morgan declined to rank the successes, calling each a great save.
Here are the sites that made the cut:
Cesar Ch?vez National Monument???Keene, Calif.
In October, President Obama designated the property known as Nuestra Se?ora Reina de la Paz???the home, workplace and burial site of labor leader C?sar Ch?vez ? a national monument.
?This site marks the extraordinary achievements and contributions to the history of the United States made by C?sar Ch?vez and the farm worker movement that he led with great vision and fortitude,? the presidential proclamation reads.
?La Paz reflects his conviction that ordinary people can do extraordinary things.?
National Trust President Stephanie Meeks applauded the move, noting it was a big first step in celebrating the life and legacy of Ch?vez.
Howard Theatre ? Washington
This historic landmark, which helped launch the careers of Duke Ellington, Ella Fitzgerald, Marvin Gaye and The Supremes, sat vacant for decades, the trust said.
But in the spring of 2012, it was restored to its original 1910 appearance after a $29 million renovation. The venue is now once again showcasing artists and drawing stars including B.B. King, Little Richard and Tracy Morgan.
Michigan Bell Building???Detroit, Mich.
Built in 1929 as the headquarters for Western Electric, this building was transformed this year from a vacant warehouse into a mixed-use space that will provide housing for the homeless, the trust noted.
The Neighborhood Service Organization, a Detroit nonprofit group, took charge of the project, creating 155 furnished, one-bedroom apartments inside the structure, along with a health care clinic, gym, library, computer room, art and music rooms, and a chapel.
'The Flying Saucer' Phillips 66 Gas Station???St. Louis.
When local preservationists found out this former gas station was threatened with demolition, they launched a public campaign to save the landmark, the trust said. Built in 1967, the glass and concrete building features a 120-foot circular roof and is a ?prized example of mid-century modern architecture,? the activists told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
Their work paid off. In September, the saucer-shaped structure opened as a Starbucks and is now listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Chimney Rock National Monument???Pagosa Springs, Colo.
Located on more than 4,000 acres in the San Juan National Forest and home to the ancestors of the modern Pueblo Indians, this area was designated a national monument by President Obama in September.
?It is a living landscape that shapes those who visit it and brings people together across time,? he noted in a statement.
The ancient inhabitants who lived here 1,000 years ago left behind more than 200 homes and ceremonial structures on the mesa overlooking the two stone spires called Chimney Rock and Companion Rock. The moon rises perfectly between the rocks every 18.6 years.
The National Trust calls the area the single most important cultural site managed by the U.S. Forest Service.
Pillsbury A Mill???Minneapolis, Minn.
Declaring the mill ?a masterpiece of industrial architecture and the largest and most advanced facility in the world at the time of its completion in 1881,? the trust included the vacant complex on its list of America?s 2011 Most Endangered Historic Places.
But this year, local lawmakers gave a thumbs-up to a plan which will convert the building into 250 low-income apartments.
Los Angeles Boyle Hotel???Los Angeles
Built in 1889, the hotel later fell into disrepair and was converted into an apartment complex. The nonprofit East Los Angeles Community Corporation bought the property in 2006 and began an extensive renovation, seeking to restore some of its grandeur. The project was completed in August, with many of the original features back in place, including the grand staircase and foyer, the brick fa?ade, and the corner cupola and cap.
Emerson School???Denver
This 1885 schoolhouse underwent a ?green rehabilitation? in May, and now features a new geothermal heating and cooling system, a complete interior rehabilitation, window restoration, and new fencing, trees and landscaping.
Wake Forest Biotech Place???Winston Salem, N.C.
Two former R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Co. warehouses now serve as a state-of-the-art life sciences center. Opened this year, this development enhances Winston-Salem?s rich history and architectural heritage, the trust said.
Hotel Lafayette???Buffalo, N.Y.
When it opened its doors in 1904, this inn boasted a grand lobby, enormous windows and posh rooms, prompting reviewers of the time to proclaim it "one of the most perfectly appointed and magnificent hotels in the country,? according to its biography. This year marked the completion of a rehabilitation project that converted the hotel into a mixed use building of apartments and businesses. ? ?

NEWTOWN, Conn. (AP) ? Religious leaders from different faiths gathered Friday on a wind-swept, snowy soccer field to mark two weeks since the Connecticut elementary school massacre and pray for healing.
A few dozen residents joined representatives from Roman Catholic, Episcopal, Methodist, Congregational, Buddhist, Muslim and other places of worship.
"Your faith leaders want you to know that we continue to stand with you as we all continue to deal with this great tragedy that has befallen our beloved community of Newtown," said the Rev. Jack Tanner, of Newtown Christian Church. "It is only the beginning of a long healing process that we will all go through."
A gunman shot his way into Sandy Hook Elementary School on Dec. 14 and killed 20 first-grade students and six adult staff members. He also killed his mother before going on the school rampage and then committing suicide.
"We are your children, your hurting children from many faiths, many traditions, many cultures, from many parts of the Earth," said the Rev. Leo McIlrath, of the Lutheran Home of Southbury. "We cry out to you. We are in pain and we ask for your healing."
Vicky Truitt, who works at Newtown Congregational Church, said she had been feeling worn down before the service.
"Today it was helpful, the prayers that they gave, to hear all the different denominations all together as one," Truitt said. "Even the ones where you didn't understand the words, you could understand the feeling that was behind them."
The outpouring of grief from around the country is evident in Sandy Hook, a section of Newtown where memorials are filled with stuffed animals, flowers, candles and crosses. Tiny Christmas stockings with the names and ages of the victims hang from one memorial, and signs from South Carolina and Florida offer love and prayers.
Patti Raddock, of Fairfield, Conn., was among many out-of-towners in Newtown to pay their respects. She said the tragedy made her feel ill.
"It's still unfathomable," she said. "I don't know how we could have stopped this kind of craziness."

Every pest, whether it is an animal or an insect, will come into human territory at some point. But, when this territory includes your home, it is no longer acceptable to us. Pests get into our homes because somewhere they have discovered a place for shelter, water and of course food.
Pests like our homes for the same reasons we do, they tend to be cooler during hot summer days and warmer during cooler winter months. Animals and insects are vulnerable to these temperature changes too. In the wild they manage for themselves. But if they spot a leaky pipe and a gap in a garbage bag one day, they may want to stick around. If they discover a hiding place underneath your porch, then they may very well decide to take up residence.
There are steps you can take to help prevent pest infestations, but when they arent enough you need to turn to professionals who know how to find pests and clear them out.

Once you know what animals and insects need in order to survive in or around your home, you need to make sure you remove these enticements so they will leave or stay away entirely.
- Remove any food sources. This means thoroughly cleaning up spills and messes in the kitchen and dining room area so pests have nothing to sneak into at night. Make sure lids are on tightly and, if necessary, transfer certain foods into airtight jars, such as flour and sugar. Make certain that trash bags are inside of a secure trash bin that animals cant get into.
- Clear away debris from your home. This can include firewood stacked against the side of your house to too much mulch piled in certain areas. Making these areas drier and more sunlit can help remove moisture and hiding places for animals.
- Find any cracks or openings and seal them. Creatures can sneak in through holes in walls or near floor level, cracks, vent openings, or pipes. They may find a home in some of these in-between places too, which can be hard for a human to reach to get them out.
- Stopper up water sources. Does your water heater drip? Do you have any leaking pipes? Any standing water near your home? All of these can encourage pests to gather and multiply. Taking them out of the equation forces insects and animals to seek a water source elsewhere.
Still Having Problems?
When you have tried everything and you still find yourself with an infestation or pack of raccoons living under your porch, then its time to call in the professionals. They can offer you additional tips on how to keep your home pest free, as well as do an assessment of the current situation. Once they know what they are dealing with they can appraise you of all the different routes they may be interested in taking in order to remove the pests from your home.

Eco-friendly practices are also incorporated into their routines so that the job is done safely and thoroughly.

MIAMI (CBSMiami) ? City of Miami Mayor Tomas Regalado is set to meet with small business owners in Liberty City who have been plagued by a series of thefts.
Wednesday?s meeting will take place at 6114 NW 7th Avenue at 3:00 p.m.
The meeting is being held in regards to the thefts of copper, electrical wire, air conditioning units, and electrical meters along NW 7th Avenue between 62nd through 54th streets.
Many of the businesses have been burglarized of these items more than once.
Business owners are hoping to get the Mayor and other city officials to commit to prioritizing this issue which has been ongoing for months.
?The thefts are affecting small businesses and non-profit organizations. This population can ill afford the cost to replace entire air conditioning units multiple times ? it is an emotional and financial hardship,? said Christine King, President/CEO of the Martin Luther King Economic Development Corporation in a statement.

Salon:
Political expediency can make a sudden feminist out of anyone, apparently. There was former Romney advisor Dan Senor on Twitter last week, expressing his distaste for potential Defense Secretary nominee Chuck Hagel: ?Isn?t it strange that the President dropped Rice but is dug in over #Hagel? Especially when he can nominate the highly qualified #Flournoy??

Lytro was the first to commercialize the idea of taking photos that you can refocus later, but now others are getting in on the concept.
Toshiba has developed a camera that also takes photos with adjustable focus, only this one can fit in a cellphone. Toshiba's camera module is small -- a square shape that measures 0.4 of an inch per side -- making it ideal as a phone camera. Packed inside it, though, are no less than 500,000 individual lenses, each just 0.001 inch in diameter.
[More from Mashable: Your Lytro Photos Just Got Upgraded]
As the initial report in Japan's The Asahi Shimbun newspaper describes, each lens captures light slightly differently than the others, which the image processor can interpret to change which subject is in focus after the fact.
The idea of a lens array with many different lenses is similar to how insects view the world. The compound eyes of a fly have hundreds of different optical units, which the fly's brain can process to give it a complete picture of its environment. Similarly, 3D cameras use two lenses (or two parts of the same lens) to capture slightly different pictures of the same scene to produce a 3D effect.
[More from Mashable: Now You Can Shift the Perspective of Your Lytro Photos]
Although the concept is similar to the Lytro camera, the technology is somewhat different. The Lytro uses an elaborate single lens along with a special image sensor that can capture the direction data of light rays in addition to their color and intensity, a technology it calls light-field photography. That data is fed into a proprietary image processor to create images you can later refocus or shift perspective.
In previous interviews with Lytro executives, they told Mashable there was nothing holding back the idea of putting the technology in a cellphone. Although the company's distinctive stick-of-butter-shaped camera is relatively large, much of its size is due to the 8x optical zoom lens, which could be replaced with a much smaller one to fit in a phone.
No word on when Toshiba's camera unit will make it into phones, if ever. We've contacted the company for comment and will update the story if and when we hear back.
Would you like to see refocusing come to phone cameras? How much extra would you pay for a phone that lets you take photos you can refocus later? Let us know in the comments.

The Lytro packaging is thankfully sparse and simple, with very little unnecessary plastic.
