December 2008 ArchivesIt's Steph, blogging for Producer Aaron. After forgetting to post these links until I mentioned it on the air last night.. tonite is a different story. I'm getting the web watch done nice and early because my hope is come 7:32pm I'll be in the car on my way to starting my vacation. Hey, totally selfish reasons work-- if they get the job done: First up: the Gaza conflict hits Twitter: But Adam does have a nifty collection of ties. It's Steph here, blogging for Producer Aaron. We have all kinds of screwy vacation shed-uhles, so sports anchor extrodinairre Adam Bjaranson was kind enough (read = told to by the boss) make an appearance in the 7pm show tonite. And while I jest, we are thrilled to have him! Hey, it's the Blazers. Yup, he's live at the Rose Garden for the big game tonite. But I hav... Hey there.. it's Steph, blogging for Producer Aaron. Tonite in the Hot Box.. Byron Beck. He's a witty, fun guy who is about as plugged into the cool Portland scene as they come. We'll chat with him about his new venture (Check out his new website here: http://byronbeckwindow.ning.com/) and ask him about which celebs like to visit P... Steph is bloggin' for Producer Aaron, hence the FAIL in getting the web-watch links posted. Which no one would have probably noticed had I not TOLD EVERYONE I FORGOT DURING THE SHOW. So, I'm now sitting here after work posting these links. Enjoy. :) >> Continue reading: Web Watch FAIL Steph is taking over for Producer Aaron, but only because he is getting some much deserved rest. So, with all the mess of Snowpocalypse 2008 we had a weird week last week. The take home message for us today is no Joe Smith. All week. He's working mornings for Brenda and Russ who are off. No amount of me pleading would convince him to work a 16+ hour day. I mean, honestly, sleep is over-rated, right? Oh well.. ther... Steph blogging here, on behalf of Producer Aaron (@thesquare for the twitterati). Come on. You know you want to tell us what your worst Christmas present was. Or maybe your best present? The husband and I had a fantastic Christmas filled with family and friends and good times. But the present I liked the most wasn't even for me. It's a little fuzzy, micro-fiber reindeer outfit complete with antlers for The Nugget THAT IS ... Hey everyone, it's Steph.. blogging here on behalf of Producer Aaron (@thesquare for you Twitter types). Tonite in the Hot Box we have Portland Mayor Tom Potter.

If you're just joining us, we give online viewers a behind-the-scenes bonus during Live @7: Here's the live stream with open mics during the breaks. It's not quite in sync with the TV broadcast, but some have time-shifted their DVR by about 30 seconds to make it line up. A lot of conversation during the show happens on Twitter, so >> Continue reading: Friday's live show thread After a week-long detour for non-stop snow coverage, Live @ 7 returns tonight, albeit with limited staffing. Steph is here, but Pat Dooris and Joe Smith are not. Anne Yeager will join us live from Vernonia, where a lot of homes have gone nearly a week without power. After last year's floods, you can't blame folks in Vernonia for feeling like they can't catch a break. ...Update: Here are permalinks to all the videos from Friday's show.

In honor of the first big storm of the season, we're going to grill meteorologist Dave Salesky (seen here circa 1992). Here's the catch: We talk to Dave all the time, so we're going to turn all the questions over to you. Joe Smith worked the early shift, so we're swapping Joes tonight. Joe Becker will be live at the Rose Garden as the Blazers play the Clippers. If you haven't been following the team this season, you've been missing out.

Tonight's theme is "Rock the Bells." Local musicians are the storytellers, including Nick Jaina and Danny S... We're starting a new mini-segment tonight: Live @ 7 Holiday Heroes. The inspiration comes from my wife Lauren, who teaches science at Evergreen High School in Vancouver.
Wednesday's Web Watch: Google Zeitgeist 2008 Like it or not, it's what we've googled so far this year. Maybe you'll find some things you forgot to search, like song lyrics and celebrity breakups.
