The eye patch worn by one of the groomsmen is a nice touch, too. Very rakish.

Days of our Lives (often abbreviated to DOOL or Days) is a daytime soap opera broadcast on the NBC television network. It is one of the longest-running scripted television programs in the world, airing nearly every weekday in the United States since November 8, 1965. It has since been syndicated to many countries around the world. It also rebroadcasts on SOAPnet with the earlier same day’s broadcast airing weekdays at 7 a.m. and the most recent episode airing weeknights at 8 and 12 a.m. (ET/PT). The series was created by husband-and-wife team Ted Corday and Betty Corday. Irna Phillips was a story editor for Days of our Lives and many of the show’s earliest storylines were written by William J. Bell. The show was recently renewed through September 2013 with a network option for 2014.

Due to the series’ success, it was expanded from 30 minutes to 60 minutes on April 21, 1975. Since that date, the mid-show bumper with the phrase “We will return for the second half of Days of our Lives in just a moment” has been voiced by the late Macdonald Carey. Days of our Lives is the second longest-running scripted television program in the United States after General Hospital. It is the fourth longest running in the world and has the largest amount of surviving episodes among episodic programs worldwide.

The series focuses on its core families, the Hortons and the Bradys. Several other families have been added to the cast, and many of them still appear on the show. Frances Reid, the matriarch of the series’ Horton family remained with the show from its inception to her death on February 3, 2010. Suzanne Rogers celebrated 38 years on Days of our Lives this year, appearing on the show more or less since her first appearance in 1973. Susan Seaforth Hayes is the only cast member to appear on Days of our Lives in all six decades it has been on air.

Daytona 500, NASCAR has confiscated part of Jimmie Johnson’s Daytona 500 car because of illegal modifications, a rocky start to Speedweeks for the five-time Sprint Cup Series champion.

NASCAR officials determined the No. 48 Chevrolet had illegally modified C-posts, an area of sheet metal between the roof and the side windows.

Officials cut off the C-posts and planned to ship them back to NASCAR’s research and development center in Concord, N.C., for further testing.

NASCAR is allowing the Hendrick Motorsports team to fix that area of the car before practice begins for the Feb. 26 Daytona 500. Qualifying is scheduled for Sunday.

NASCAR spokesman Kerry Tharp says the sanctioning body will wait until after the Daytona 500 to “address any further actions that may come out as a result of this.”

Days Of Our LivesDays Of Our Lives, Chandler Massey, who plays Will Horton on the long-running NBC daytime soap Days of our Lives, has said he’s thrilled to play gay.

The 21-year-old Massey spoke with The Huffington Post about his character’s upcoming coming out storyline.

“It’s going to unfold slowly, because we want to be as realistic as possible, because coming to terms with who you are and your sexuality is not something that happens overnight. It takes time,” Massey said.

Massey said producers are not pursuing the storyline simply because it’s “popular.”

“It’s not one of those things where, ‘Oh, some other soaps are doing gay storylines, it’s popular, it’s on Glee, so we’re just going to do it.’ It’s a meaningful story that’s very relevant today. You can expect some good stuff.”

He added that coming out will be difficult for his character: “It’s going to be very difficult. … Mostly, it’s because of the people he cares about and loves. He’s basically afraid of how they will react.”
