Here is a list -- incomplete, of course -- of stores that are opening (unnecessarily) on Thanksgiving Day. It's up to us, the consumers, to send a strong message that these stores need to value their employees over the almighty dollar. BOYCOTT these stores. In the new global marketplace, they can offer you NOTHING you can't find somewhere else, anyway.
Please tweet or repost this list, and let's start a movement!
1. WALMART will be open 24/7. Let's make sure they don't have any customers.
2. KMART - if WalMart is open, then KMart can't be far behind.
3. MACYS -- sadly, long gone are the days when Macy's showed us the true meaning of the holidays
4. THE GAP -- really? we can't wait 24 hours to buy some cargo pants?
5. TOYS 'R US -- how about MAKING toys for your kids this year? They'll love 'em anyway.
6. BEST BUY -- if it's true they're circling the drain, this won't help their bottom line
7. BEALLS -- OMG have you seen their website? I think I'd be scared to go there anyway!
8. OLD NAVY -- seriously, you need to save an extra quarter on a $9 tshirt?
9. DICK'S SPORTING GOODS -- because do you really HAVE to buy that Browning X-Bolt Hunter with adjustable feather trigger on the day we give thanks for our family and friends?
10. TARGET -- ONLY if the Dayton family is personally staffing the front door and cash registers

10 Reasons to Shop ONLINE on Thanksgiving Day
Most people are aware that there's been backlash against the companies that are opening on Thanksgiving evening (Target, etc) or even going to be open all day (Walmart, etc). There are good reasons for that backlash. The poor folks who will have to work those days are some of the most underpaid, underappreciated people in our workforce. They work very hard all year, and they deserve one or two days with their families.

Doctor Who 50th Anniversary Global Event: The Day of the Doctor
Doctor Who is 50 years old, and more popular than ever! That's right, the well loved BBC geek-fi show is turning 50 with a global event like the world's never seen. "The Day of the Doctor" happens on November 23, 2013, and has been described by series producer Marcus Wilson as a "love letter to the fans" and by the controller of BBC One, Danny Cohen, as an "event drama". The event will be shown in several countries. The special will also be shown concurrently in 3D at cinemas across the world.
David Tennant, Billie Piper, John Hurt, Joanna Page, Jemma Redgrave, Matt Smith, various Zygons and Galeks, and possibly some surprises, will star. It was filmed in 3D, in England, and is billed as the worlds biggest drama simulcast.
