I still haven't got around to watching the first episode of the new series of Who Do You Think You Are? featuring June Brown, so I will withhold judgement on that, but if you want to found out more about the making of the series then check out the following post on the BBC TV blog.
In the post Tom McDonald, the executive producer for this series, describes some of the work that goes into making the series and discusses some of the issues faced when dealing with some of the more difficult topics covered in the this and past series.
What really comes across in this blog post is the amount of work that goes into producing each series, with 30 celebrities being researched to produce a series of just ten episodes. It sounds to me as if a programme about the making of each episode would be just as interesting, documenting the research process and sharing the breakthroughs that are made along the way, many of which I am sure that we never see on the finished episode.
Thanks to Gary Andrews of the BBC TV Blog for bringing this to my attention.

Bray, Valdez become free agents
Reds reliever Bill Bray and infielder Wilson Valdez refused outright assignments and elected to become free agents. Both were eligible for arbitration this winter.
Bray, 29, was limited to 8 2/3 innings and 14 appearances this season because of groin and back injuries. He wasn't very effective when he did pitch in 2012 as he had a 5.19 ERA with 14 walks and seven strikeouts. About to be second-year arbitration eligible, he earned $1.4 million in 2012.
The last remaining piece that arrived in a blockbuster trade that sent Austin Kearns and Felipe Lopez to the the Nationals in 2006, Bray had a lot of injury filled years in Cincinnati. His best season was a healthy 2011 when he made a career-high 79 appearances and posted a 2.98 ERA.
Acquired from the Phillies last winter, the 34-year-old Valdez batted .208 with 15 RBIs in 77 games as a backup. He played 2B (22 games, 8 starts), SS (33 games, 27 starts), 3B (14 games, 5 starts) and CF (5 games, 4 starts). He made $930,000 in 2012.

I don't believe their departure will impact the Reds for 2013. When will Cairo be leaving?
Is Keppinger a possible replacement for Cairo – by which I mean, is he on the market?
Also, would keppinger make sense for the Reds?
so far not missing anyone. I personally think we saw the best that Ludwick has left a multi year deal would prove to be a mistake. If Votto can clip 30 and Bruce 30 we can fill up the rest of the position with speed. We never know too Frazier just might hit 26 dingers playing all year as well.
three was to high
Reds like investing in players no one else wants. Reds need a left fielder. Manny Ramirez hit the first pitch he saw in Dominican league for home run. We could probably pick him up for the league minimum.
mannys got too much baggage! i dont think he meshes on a team like cincy, the fans especially dont like guys like him here, the media hub of manny coming back would be counter productive to what we got. i just hope we dont sign victorino there something i dont like about signing that dude i dunno what it is but i pass!

MADISON, Wis. — Ben Brust hit a shot from just inside midcourt to tie the game at the end of regulation and added a tie-breaking 3 with less than 40 seconds left in overtime for Wisconsin in it's 65-62 win over No. 3 Michigan Saturday.
Brust scored 14 points for the Badgers (17-7, 8-3 Big Ten), while Jared Berggren added 13.
Trey Burke scored 19 points for Michigan (21-3, 8-3), while Tim Hardaway Jr. added 18.
Hardaway hit a contested 3-pointer to put the Wolverines up 65-52 with less than 3 seconds left in regulation. Brust collected the inbounds pass near halfcourt, took one dribble and hit a runner that touched nothing but net to tie the game.
Wisconsin and Michigan traded baskets in overtime before Brust hit the 3-pointer over Caris LeVert to put Wisconsin up 65-62 with less than 40 seconds left.
Michigan came in as one of the top scoring teams in the country at almost 78 points per game, but Wisconsin held the Wolverines to less than 40 percent shooting from the field, including 5 of 18 from beyond the 3-point line.
The win extended the Badgers' 11-game home winning streak against Michigan, the best in school history.
No. 2 FLORIDA 83, MISSISSIPPI STATE 58
GAINESVILLE, Fla. — Mike Rosario scored 18 points, Erik Murphy added 17 and No. 2 Florida bounced back from a humbling loss earlier in the week to thump short-handed Mississippi State.
Casey Prather, playing in place of injured forward Will Yeguete, chipped in 12 points and five rebounds. Yeguete had arthroscopic surgery Friday to remove loose bodies in his right knee and will miss at least the rest of the regular season.
The Gators (19-3, 9-1 SEC) went 4-5 without him last season, but looked much better against the Bulldogs.
Mississippi State (7-15, 2-8) played without guard Jalen Steele, who didn't make the trip after being suspended indefinitely for violating team rules.
OKLAHOMA 72, No. 5 KANSAS 66
NORMAN, Okla. — Romero Osby scored 17 points, Steven Pledger added 15 and Oklahoma beat Kansas to give the Jayhawks their first three-game losing streak in eight years.
The Sooners (15-7, 6-4 Big 12) snapped a 10-game losing streak in the series and took down a top 5 opponent for the first time since beating No. 4 Texas on Jan. 28, 2006.
Freshman Je'lon Hornbeak went 4 for 6 at the free throw line in the final minute, just enough to keep the Jayhawks (19-4, 7-3) at bay. Cameron Clark hit two free throws to finish it off.
Kansas had the nation's longest winning streak at 18 games before losing three straight for the first time since February 2005.
Ben McLemore led Kansas with 15 points and Jeff Withey had 14 points, six rebounds and the one block he needed to tie Greg Ostertag's school record with the 258th of his career. The Jayhawks outscored Oklahoma 32-16 in the paint, but missed seven of their first 12 free throws to stall their attempts at a comeback.
No. 8 MIAMI 87, NORTH CAROLINA 61
CORAL GABLES, Fla. — Shane Larkin had 18 points and a career-high nine assists to lead Miami to its 11th straight win.
The Hurricanes made a school record-tying 15 3-pointers as they improved to 11-0 at home, where each of the past four wins have been by at least 22 points.
The Hurricanes (19-3, 10-0 Atlantic Coast Conference) set a school record for ACC victories in a season with eight games still to go. They are the last unbeaten team in league play among the major conferences.
Reggie Bullock had 14 points for North Carolina (16-7, 6-4), which began the season 18-2 against the Hurricanes and lost to them for the second time in four weeks.
The Hurricanes made 13 of their first 19 3-point tries and finished 15 for 26 from beyond the arc. Larkin tied a career high with five 3-pointers in eight attempts.
Miami's smothering defense did the rest, flustering a team averaging an ACC-best 79.1 points per game.
No. 14 BUTLER 59, G. WASHINGTON 56
WASHINGTON — Rotnei Clark scored 14 points and Butler (20-4, 7-2 Atlantic 10) nearly blew a 17-point lead, going the last 7½ minutes without a field goal before holding on.
No. 20 G'TOWN 69, RUTGERS 63
PISCATAWAY, N.J. — Markel Starks scored 20 points and Otto Porter took over down the stretch for Georgetown (17-4, 7-3 Big East).
Eli Carter had 23 points for the Scarlet Knights (12-10, 3-8), who lost their sixth straight.
After a string of nine straight scoring sequences produced either a lead change or tie, Porter scored on a fast-break layup to make it 62-60 with 4:44 left to give the Hoyas the lead for good.
With Georgetown leading 62-61, the Hoyas came out of a timeout and got a critical three-point play from Porter off an entry pass from Starks to lead by four with 1:15 remaining. Rutgers got a basket from Carter with 55 seconds left before Porter hit both ends of a 1-and-1.
No. 21 MISSOURI 98, MISSISSIPPI 79
COLUMBIA, Mo. — Alex Oriakhi had a career-high 22 points to go with 18 rebounds, three blocks and a central role in a second-half fracas for Missouri.
Phil Pressey had four assists to break Anthony Peeler's career school record and had 22 points for Missouri (17-6, 6-4 Southeastern Conference), which bounced back nicely from its latest discouraging road loss, a 1-point setback at Texas A&M on Thursday. The Tigers are 14-0 at home and 0-5 on the road.
Marshall Henderson had 16 points on 4-for-15 shooting for Mississippi (18-5, 7-3), which has lost three of four. Jarvis Summers also had 16 points while Murphy Holloway, coming off a career-best 24 points, was held to seven in 30 minutes.
Ole Miss whipped then-No. 10 Missouri 64-49 at home on Jan. 12, but gave up 50 points in the first half of the rematch and was outrebounded 50-32.
The game got testy with about 7 1-2 minutes to go when Reginald Buckner apparently was tripped by Oriakhi after the Tigers scored to make it 80-58 and came up swinging with a couple of wild punches that missed Laurence Bowers as Oriakhi danced away.
Buckner was ejected, Oriakhi was called for a flagrant foul and Brown, Bowers and Holloway were given technicals.
Missouri matched its season best with 12 3-pointers, four by Pressey and three each by Keion Bell and Jabari Brown. Bell added 21 points and Brown had 14.
No. 22 OKLAHOMA STATE 72, TEXAS 59
AUSTIN, Texas — Marcus Smart scored 23 points and Oklahoma State got its fifth straight win.
Markel Brown added 17 points for the Cowboys (17-5, 7-3 Big 12), who sputtered offensively for long stretches but used their own tough defense to clamp down on the Longhorns. The Cowboys shot 38 percent from the field.
Ioannis Papapetrou scored 15 points to lead Texas (10-13, 2-8). The Longhorns shot 1 of 18 from 3-point range and were just 12 of 21 from the free throw line.
Saturday marked the end of the 23-game NCAA suspension for Texas guard Myck Kabongo, who is expected to play the rest of the season.
No. 24 MARQUETTE 89, DePAUL 78
MILWAUKEE — Vander Blue scored 18 points and Junior Cadougan added 17 as Marquette handed DePaul its eighth straight loss.
With the win, Marquette (17-5, 8-2 Big East) moved one-half game ahead of No. 9 Syracuse for first place in the Big East. Syracuse plays at home Sunday against St. Johns.
Davante Gardner added 13 points for Marquette, which won for the 22nd straight time at home, the fifth-longest streak in the nation.
Brandon Young had 21 points and six assists for DePaul (10-13, 1-9), while Clahar and Donnavan Kirk added 16 points each.

SHAUN STANLEY/Durango Herald
SHAUN STANLEY/Durango Herald
DENVER � The most controversial of Colorado Democrats� gun bills � a ban on larger ammunition magazines � is on its way to Gov. John Hickenlooper for final approval.
After voting for it, Rep. Mike McLachlan, D-Durango, came out swinging against a recall campaign that has targeted him.
At the same time, local gun supporters called the bill pointless, unenforceable and an affront to Second Amendment rights.
�It�s feel-good legislation, and all it�s doing is restricting more and more people�s rights,� said La Plata County Sheriff Duke Schirard. �It�s not going to accomplish anything.�
House Bill 1224 passed its final vote in the Legislature on Wednesday afternoon on a 34-30 margin, with three Democrats and all Republicans opposed. It bans the sale of ammunition magazines of more than 15 rounds.
Democrats said most of the mass shootings in the country since the 1980s have involved large-capacity magazines.
�I am sick and tired of the bloodshed. Whatever we can do to curb gun violence in our community, we have a responsibility to do that,� said the sponsor, Rep. Rhonda Fields, D-Aurora.
But Rep. Frank McNulty, R-Highlands Ranch, said the Legislature doesn�t have the right to question gun owners about why they want larger magazines.
�It is my right to have that standard firearm that is in common use, and you don�t have the right to take it from me,� McNulty said.
The bill would ban the sale of larger magazines after July 1, but owners could keep their current ones.
Fields originally wanted the limit set at 10 bullets, but McLachlan successfully amended it in February to raise the limit to 15. He later said he wanted to see a 30-round limit.
McLachlan voted again Wednesday for the 15-round limit and told the Herald he decided to support the bill after no Republicans stepped forward to help him raise the limit to 30.
He asked gun lobbyists to get Senate Republicans to try to raise the limit, but they were more interested in killing the bill than improving it, he said.
�The reason we�ve ended up where we are today is, in part, their fault because they never tried to put a 30-round limit forward,� McLachlan said.
The popular AR-15 assault rifle often is sold with a 30-round ammunition magazine.
Opponents have targeted McLachlan with a recall petition because of his votes on the gun bills. They have until about May 5 to collect more than 10,500 signatures from registered voters in McLachlan�s district.
McLachlan said he has received threatening and disparaging emails against his family.
�I�m not going to let them bully me. I�m not going to let them hold out a recall as a way to make me abandon the principles that I stand for and the reasons people elected me,� he said.
Schirard called the legislation one of the �most asinine things I�ve ever heard.�
A 15-round limit is an �arbitrary� figure, he said. There are millions of 20- and 30-round magazines that will be swapped between states, making the law �totally unenforceable,� he said.
Chris Burnett, manager at Rocky Mountain Pawn & Gun in Durango, said he has been flooded with questions from customers wanting to know if they�re allowed to possess high-capacity magazines and whether they can purchase them in New Mexico and bring them to Colorado.
�They want to be sure that they�re not possessing something that is illegal to have in the state of Colorado,� he said. �There�s just a lot of questions and uncertainty about exactly what they�re going to be able to do or not do with what they have.�
The legislation has been good for business, he said.
�I have sold thousands and thousands of 30-round magazines in the last three months,� he said. �Everybody who wants them has got them.�
Democrats had hoped to send a second bill to Hickenlooper�s desk Wednesday, which would require background checks for private-party gun sales. But Republicans pointed out problems with guns owned by family-owned companies, so the bill is going to a conference committee and could pass as soon as Friday.
Schirard said he has fewer issues with legislation to require background checks for private-party gun sales, as long as it excludes background checks for leaving guns to heirs.
Background checks should take into account a person�s mental health, he said.
�All of these mass shootings have been done by people with mental problems,� Schirard said.
But both bills are toothless and accomplish little, he said.
�All a person has to do is drive 20 miles south into New Mexico and you can do any of those things with impunity,� he said.

Tuesday, July 15, 2014
As the fifth summer of my short time on this earth was winding down, my 90-something year-old paternal great-grandmother Emma died and my six year old sister started school at Williamsburg County Training School in Greeleyville. The passing of the old lady with white hair and the longest fingernails I had ever seen was my first inkling that those close to me were not special after all and could actually die like others in our community. That realization was a shock to me and it marked the beginning of the end of my innocence.
My sister and I were inseparable and it was earth shattering when I realized that she would get to ride a big yellow bus all the way to the school in the town of Greeleyville and I would have to wait until the next year. She was the first child born to our parents in a house on Mr. Leverne Mims place on the Manning Highway as the last century approached its midpoint. Her name was Margie Nadine but the family called her Sister. I still do not know if she got that name before or after I came along exactly 26 months after she did, but I suppose you would need to have a brother in order to be called Sister.
I was finally allowed to go to school in September of 1956. The bus dropped us off at the ancient wooden school and took other students to the new brick school down the road. Mrs. McClary was my first grade teacher. I am still amazed that I survived the educational process long enough for her to be my seventh grade teacher also.
On that first day, during recess, I gathered colorful rocks from the ground near an artesian well in the school yard and put them in the pockets of my new overalls. When a big boy named Curtis ran into me and accidently knocked me to the ground, I deliberately threw the rocks at him. The Rev. Livingston, the principal of the old school, could have justifiably sent me packing my very first day. Several years later Curtis brought barbecue to school and shared it with me. Eighteen years later as a graduate student in another state I needed subjects from back home to interview for a research project, I found Curtis father living in the same apartment complex as my grandmother in the shadow of Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut.
Our family moved to Route 1 Salters, after I was born and the Wilson family lived on Route 2 in Salters. Their daughter Ethel Mae was my first grade classmate and I called her Eartha Mae. We were the class that was scheduled to graduate in 1968, a year that was then twice as many years into the future as we were old at the time. I loved learning new and interesting things, but I especially loved recess and lunch. My sister, my classmates, and I looked forward to having turkey and dressing for Thanksgiving dinner with our classmates and I recall that the turkey was delicious.
Sister complained of a sore throat shortly after the dinner and her condition got progressively worse as the days went by. As Christmas of 1956 approached, my parents bought her the doll she wanted. I was glad that they did not get dolls for both of us as they had done two years earlier when I was a four and a half year old boy. By the third week in December, Sister was seriously ill. Late one night I heard her pleading for a parched potato. Those were the last words that I was to hear her speak. My father took her to the hospital in Kingstree the next day and she died at five oclock in the evening on Friday, December 21, 1956.
Her brief stay with us was done and she left us at the close of business for the week. The cause of death was listed as Strep Throat Infection. Redmond Funeral Home buried her with her doll beside her in the Colored Sam Tisdale Cemetery on Christmas Eve 1956. She was eight years old. My heartbroken parents were convinced that the turkey that we ate at school a month earlier had snuffed out her life. Many years passed before my other sisters and I were allowed to eat school lunch again. Even today stories are told about Sister and the other little girl from Salters who ate bad turkey at school.
I returned to school in January 1957 without my dear Sister. I struggled to carry my books and hers as well. On the bus I asked our cousin Christine Woods who was Sisters classmate to return the books to their teacher Mrs. Hannah. Back at school we soon learned that my classmate, Ethel Mae Wilson, had died also. She was just seven years old at the time of her death on January 2, 1957. Dimery and Rogers Funeral Home buried her at Rocky Ford Cemetery in Salters two days later.
Dr. T.S. Hemingway who did post graduate work at Harvard University Medical School, the same doctor who diagnosed the cause of Sisters death a week and a half earlier, determined that the Wilson child had died of Strep. Infection, Throat. When Dr. Hemingway died 16 years later his gravestone identified him as a country doctor who dedicated his life to his patients.
More than 10,000 Americans are stricken by Strep infections yearly, according to the US Centers for Disease Control. Streptococcal, or strep infection, is a condition caused by bacteria that most often affect school age children.
However, it can affect persons of any age. Composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart died at the age of 35 in 1791. His death has been attributed to various ailments. However, recent research suggests that he may have died from complications stemming from strep throat. Nearly two centuries later, Jim Henson, the American puppeteer, entertainment mogul and inventor of Kermit the Frog may have died of the same condition.
Late in 1998 I wrote a story about the Spanish Influenza epidemic that took place eighty years earlier and an abbreviated version of that story appeared in these pages early in 1999. This epidemic killed millions worldwide and hundreds including several members of my family in Williamsburg County.
Yet a recent study suggests that strep infections and not the flu virus itself may have killed most people during the pandemic from 95 years ago. I still wonder if strep infections or bad turkey took my sister and my classmate almost sixty years ago.
Recently I attended the funeral of Leroy McClary who started school with Ethel Mae Wilson and me in 1956. I drove away from Rocky Ford Cemetery in Salters feeling nostalgic with a profound sense of loss. I was leaving Leroy in a place where one of our classmates had been waiting almost sixty years. Ironically, I had to rush back to Columbia for a meeting with other graduates of Williamsburg County Training School.
I am blessed to have three other sisters and an equal number of brothers. My parents are still alive and well. I have children and grandchildren. I am also blessed to have had the opportunity to introduce my first and only grandson to my grandmother before she left us. I have friends and I have seen several members of the class of 1968 recently, but my heart grieved when I learned that Pearlistine Nelson and then Lucille Hilton who started school with us so long ago have left us as well. So long my classmates. I share your loss with your family. My siblings and I have grown old together and become a lot like our parents.
We love each other dearly, but our circle was broken long ago by the loss of our parents firstborn. It has been 57 years but we still miss Sister and she will live forever in our hearts and memories.

Winter Poem
Listen now to the highly anticipated new album from Secret Garden. All new songs from Rolf Løvland and Fionnuala Sherry with the Czech National Symphony Orchestra featuring vocals from Moya Brennan of Clannad and Fionnuala Gill.
Availability: In stock.
Product Description
Stream the "The Dream" in its entirety below!
Over the last 15 years Secret Garden has sold nearly 5 million albums worldwide. From their first CD "Songs From a Secret Garden" which featured 'Nocturne', through albums "White Stones" and "Dawn of a New Century", and "Once in a Red Moon", the group has had a consistent presence on the U.S. charts. Their songs have been successfully covered by Barbra Streisand ("Heartstrings" / "I've Dreamed Of You"), Josh Groban and Il Divo ("You Raise Me Up"), among others.
Winter Poem features all new original songs by Rolf Løvland, with Fionnuala Sherry's violin as the trademark sound of the group. The repertoire is dominated by instrumental pieces, but in addition, the group has also found room for 3 new songs. Moya Brennan of the Celtic group 'Clannad' is a guest vocalist on "The Dream". "We've wanted to work with Moya for a very long time", says Løvland. "She performs the song with a longing and dreamy expression that gives the song a very special dimension." Another new song, "Mary's Lament", has lyrics by Brendan Graham who also wrote the lyrics for "You Raise Me Up". The song is performed by Irish singer Fionnuala Gill. "Powered By Nature", which was Norway's official Expo-song during last year's exhibition in China, is sung by Espen Grjotheim and Tracey Campbell. All music is symphonically scored, arranged and produced by Rolf and performed by Secret Garden with the Czech National Symphony Orchestra.
The album has been given the title "Winter Poem". "Winter, with Nature's transformation and beautiful magic, is a time for emotion and contemplative thought. Many of these feelings have been a source of inspiration for the music. Scandinavia's winter is shrouded in darkness. It always arouses my creativity, I always write best then. I think the Norwegian nature and the special atmosphere in Winter creates a kind of need in me to feel my emotions and to express myself", says Rolf Løvland.
"We truly hope that Winter Poem can contribute light and warmth to our listeners during the cold, dark winter evenings and to those living in warmer climes, light and warmth through cold and dark times", says Fionnuala Sherry.
Sorry but we can ONLY ship to those with addresses in the United States, Canada, and Mexico - any orders from outside North America will be refunded.
For those outside of North America, please visit CDON.com to purchase the CD or Platekompaniet to purchase the digital album.

I saw some sexy ladies (hello @XPPINKX) talking about gettin' naked on Twitter today, so I had to join in. LOL. Yeah, you know what I'm talking about. Urban Decay's new neutrals palette "Naked" which includes 12 deliciously wearable shades which I just got in yesterday so I was inspired to share, share share. ^.^
To reiterate from the video what I'm wearing as far as makeup goes is a base of UDPP, Mac Vex on the lid, UD Smog for contour and lower lash line, and UD Virgin for the highlight color. I applied my eye makeup this morning and haven't touched up at all so it lasted a good 12+ hours, a feat I consider to be quite impressive.
Here are pics of my goodies:

Lake Tahoe to place bid for Winter X Games
January 18, 2013
LAKE TAHOE — Lake Tahoe could become the new host of the Winter X Games.
ESPN, which owns the X Games franchise, announced qualified host sites on Thursday, and Lake Tahoe was listed among the eligible destinations for 2015-17. Finalists will be determined by April 2013 and host cities will be announced by the end of 2013.
The X Games bid is sponsored by the Lake Tahoe Sports Organizing Committee, a new entity created to bring marquee events to the area and generate overnight stays while promoting Lake Tahoe to a global audience.
Committee partners include the Lake Tahoe Visitors Authority, North Lake Tahoe Chamber/Convention & Visitors Bureau/Resort Association, Heavenly Mountain Resort and Squaw Valley, among others.
"Hosting an event of this caliber would provide significant economic impact for the destination," said Carol Chaplin, executive director of the Lake Tahoe Visitors Authority. "The demographics of the X Games align perfectly with attractions and appeal of Lake Tahoe and its combination of outdoor recreation, spectacular natural beauty and 24-hour lifestyle."
According to ESPN, past X Games winter events have yielded substantial results for host cities. Aspen estimates that the X Games generates up to $10 million in identifiable benefits. The event, historically held in January or February, has attracted 20,000 to 25,000 spectators per day. The broadcast distribution alone for the X Games Aspen 2012 reached 232 million homes in 192 countries and territories.
"The X Games is a unique opportunity to showcase winter sports in Lake Tahoe to a targeted domestic and international audience," said Andy Chapman, chief marketing officer of the North Lake Tahoe Chamber/Convention & Visitors Bureau/Resort Association. "It's a fantastic chance to tell the world about our phenomenal snow conditions, prestigious training grounds and the many and varied resorts that make up Lake Tahoe."
The inaugural event was in 1995 and includes extreme sports (hence the name) ranging from Snowboarder-X (Boarder Cross), Slopestyle, Superpipe, Big Air/Best Trick, Snocross and Freestyle Snowmobiling.
Competitions would be conducted at Squaw Valley and Heavenly.
"We are proud to be associated with Vail Resorts and Heavenly along with our regional partners to work to bring the X Games to Lake Tahoe," said President and CEO Andy Wirth of Squaw Valley and Alpine Meadows. "This is truly a partnership of high impact players from the region with a great deal of experience planning and staging world-class events. Over the last few decades, we've watched the X Games evolve. At its founding, the X Games revolutionized the landscape of winter sports and it continues to evolve and remain the single most impactful, admired and esteemed winter events, period. We sincerely hope to be a part of it the X Games' incredible evolution."

The Henry Strater Theatre, affectionately known these days as �The Hank,� has been a fixture of the downtown entertainment scene, but never to the point where it has gained a following of regulars, save for a band or two.
It remains a primary venue for the Durango Bluegrass Meltdown, its summers are busy with the Melodrama, and this week it is hosting the annual Snowdown Follies. Aside from those and a few other annual events, The Hank�s concert schedule averages about one show a month, if that.
Perhaps that will change with a need for a place to host the growing number of shows around town. It�s a great spot; its huge backstage can accommodate large bands, and along with its dance floor, tiered and �Muppet Show��like box seating, it�s ideal for dancers and wallflowers.
The Hank will be used Thursday, when Austin-roots folkie Garrett Lebeau will play a benefit for the San Juan Citizens Alliance and La Plata Open Space Conservancy. Joining Lebeau in his band are Matt Hubbard on keyboards, Brad Houser on bass and Michael Christmas on drums. Opening the show will be Bonnie Bishop.
Bishop is based in Nashville. She last played here in the summer, when she performed as part of the Community Concert Hall�s Thursday night series in Buckley Park.
Lebeau�s career is off to a quick start. He recently signed to Jimmy Lafave�s �Music Road Records� and is quickly gaining the attention of the heavy-hitting songwriter and musician community around Austin. He�s fresh out of the studio, and his next release, �Rise to the Grind,� is due out in May. It�s everything he had hoped for, and he�s proud of the result.
�The whole vibe was great,� Lebeau said. �A lot of the studio experience nowadays is kind of like a nine-to-five deal. This was not like that. We went in late in the day and worked late into the night. It was the experience I�ve been looking to have in the studio for many years. It�s been a long road to get here and this record is great,�
He�s a tough one to pigeonhole, admitting that describing your sound is about as easy as admitting your weaknesses in a job interview. Genre names are thrown around; ideas from the past are borrowed and built upon to either call things rhythm and blues or a throwback to soul. Lebeau may throw around some of those terms, too, but in the end he is happy with a sound that he has worked on developing.
�People will reference Curtis Mayfield, Al Green, Boz Scaggs and Doctor John,� Lebeau said. �But I really don�t think I sound anything like that. But it�s got elements. There�s a slight bit of folky Americana to certain tunes. But then there�s this funk thing. All I know is it sounds like me at the end of the day, and that�s what you try to do as an artist.�

Local women are invited to lace up their petticoats and fasten their gun holsters for a day of friends, food and gun safety.
The Aiken County Republican Party, along with wives of Aiken County Republican elected officials, will host "Petticoats, Pastries and Pistols" beginning at 9 a.m., Saturday at The Carolina Star Gun and Hunt Club in Windsor.
"It was an event that just came to mind," said Diane Barnes, chairman of the Aiken County Republican Party. "Being the new chairman for the Aiken County Republican Party, I wanted to be able to come out and do a women's event. What a great opportunity for women to come out and bring your friends, get a chance to learn about guns and safety and promote awareness."
The event will begin with a brunch and will then move to the gun range. Barnes said there will be two instructors certified by the National Rifle Association, one of whom is a woman. Participants will be going "back to the basics."
"We're going to be shooting on the range, but it's going to be more so just to feel comfortable shooting your gun, not necessarily aiming for the bullseye," Barnes said, adding that she's had a gun for a while but doesn't "feel comfortable" with it.
"I've got some women who have just purchased a gun and have never been out to a gun range before," she said.
Participants are asked to bring a gun and ammo, but Barnes said it is not a requirement and that arrangements can be made if a participant doesn't have a gun.
"People are just afraid of crime," Barnes said of women's increased interest in guns. "They're afraid of being broken into. It's more for self defense; that's just an added security to have."
Saturday's event is limited to 30 participants. As of Tuesday afternoon, there were 11 spots remaining, and Thursday is the last day to purchase tickets, according to Barnes. Tickets are $50.
The Carolina Star Gun and Hunt Club is located at 371 Cedar Branch Road in Windsor. For more information, email Barnes at email@example.com or call 803-439-5397.

Having reached the top of Wolstonbury Hill the rest of my Sussex Day walk could only be downhill.
I considered the best way home, I could go west and down to Newtimber and Poynings and catch the bus. However that would have meant crossing the busy A23 which I wasn't keen to do.
So instead I headed east, a path lead south a short way from the top of the hill and joined an east-west path which slowly descended towards Clayton. About half a mile along the path, another path lead north, into some shade and continued downhill and eventually out onto New Way Lane.
About a quarter of a mile east was the village of Clayton, there were only two things I knew about Clayton, the railway tunnel and the twin windmills of Jack and Jill. I discovered there was also a lovely little church with some quite stunning wall paintings, and a splendid graveyard with wonderful views of the South Downs, in fact it was almost on the Downs.
A path lead north from Clayton along the side of the railway line for about a mile, straight to Hassocks railway station, not surprising really considering it was following the railway line. It was just after four o'clock when I arrived at Hassocks railway station, just enough time to visit the local newsagents to buy some more drink, before catching a train to Brighton and a bus home.

Ellen NICHOLLS, my 3x great-grandmother, has so far been one of my trickiest ancestors to track down. I wrote yesterday about what I do know, which is mainly that she and William GEERING had some children and some years later she died.
From the census I have a date and place of birth (c1847, Chiddingstone, Kent) and back in 2009 I put together a family tree which looked plausible, until I discovered that the Ellen NICHOLLS I was looking at died aged 2 years and 9 months. Clearly not my 3x great-grandmother.
Oddly enough though I think I still have the correct pair of parents. They are Thomas NICHOLLS and Martha DRAPPER, who married in Q1 1840 in the Sevenoaks Registration District. Chiddingstone is in Sevenoaks Registration District, but I haven't actually requested a copy of the marriage certificate or searched for the parish register entry yet. I don't want to start heading down that road until I am happy that I have the correct set of parents, although it is nice to know that a certificate (with fathers' names) is waiting to be ordered once I am certain.
I already have a fair bit of information on Martha's family because she and Thomas are living with them in 1841, on the census is Martha's father (George) and at least five siblings. Thomas is listed as an excavator, which suggests to me that he was working on building the railway from Redhill to Tonbridge.
Thomas and Martha had two children Ellen (in 1842) and Mary (in 1845), both baptised in Chiddingstone, unfortunately Ellen was buried at Chiddingstone on the 7th February 1845. That wasn't the only tragedy, because by the time the 1851 census comes around Martha is a widow, and she is working as servant in Penshurst, Kent, without any sign of children.
Her daughter Mary turns out to be living with a family by the name of COLLISTER in Bletchingly, Surrey. She is shown as a nurse child of John and Mary COLLISTER. In Q3 1849 both John COLLISTER and Mary Ann DRAPPER were married in Godstone Registration District (hopefully to each other) and I suspect that Mary Ann is Martha's sister.
Also in 1851 there is an Ellen NICHOLLS living with James and Jane BARNES in Seasalter, Kent. Ellen is shown as the niece of James and Jane, and once again I suspect that Jane is another of Martha's sisters. James BARNES and Jane DRAPPER were both married in Q4 1841 in Sevenoaks Registration District.
I believe this Ellen NICHOLLS is my 3x great-grandmother, in 1851 her age is given as 4 years, which would mean she was born around 1847. Her place of birth is given as Blean, Kent which doesn't fit quite so well. I seems to me quite likely that the second Ellen NICHOLLS was named after her deceased older sister.
It also seems reasonable that given the upheaval in the early years of her life that she was not really aware of where she was born or even who her parents were. Her sister Mary was born in Chiddingstone, but not Ellen herself although she may have known that her mother's family at least came from Chiddingstone.
The big problem with this is that there is no birth registration in the GRO indexes in Sevenoaks or Blean Registration Districts for Ellen NICHOLLS around 1847. There are however two registrations for a female NICHOLLS, one in the first quarter and one in the second quarter of 1847 in the Blean Registration District. I am hoping that one of these girls will have Thomas and Martha as parents, even if they hadn't decided on a name for their daughter yet.
Interestingly there is also a death registration for a Thomas NICHOLLS in Blean Registration District in Q1 1848, could this be the death of Ellen's father? He must only have been in his late twenties when he died, so there must be an interesting story there.
There is lots of uncertainty in all of this, lots of ifs and buts, but it all goes together far too well. A lot of the relationships need proving but I feel I have enough evidence to build a very strong case that the 4 year old Ellen on the 1851 census is my 3x great-grandmother.
It would be very easy to use this information to go back from Thomas and Martha, but having been caught out once (with the death of the younger Ellen) I need to be 100% certain.
My next step is to get copies of the two birth certificates and hope that one of those has the names Thomas and Martha on it. Then I need to use that to try to find a baptism record, hopefully they would have settled on a name for their daughter by then.
Last night I ordered one of the certificates (the one from the second quarter of 1847) hoping that I strike it lucky with that one and save the cost of a second certificate. Now I need to wait patiently for the postman to bring it and hope that it brings the news I am after!

An Aiken man was detained on multiple firearms charges after he threatened three women with a rifle on Thursday, according to police.
Larry Daniel Smith, 64, of Union Street, was charged with three counts of pointing and presenting a firearm and one count each of disorderly conduct and failure to comply. He was placed in the Aiken County detention center, where he remained on Friday.
The incident happened at his home on Union Street about 9:15 p.m. on Thursday, according to a report.
Dispatch received an urgent call from a "hysterical" caller saying that there was a man in her house with a "machine gun," according to the report. Officers arrived on scene and found out that three women had jumped out of the window to escape from the man.
Officers saw the man outside the home and ordered him to show his hands, to which he responded with profanity, according to the report. After an officer tried to kick Smith's leg out, he approached the officer.
Another officer then deployed a Taser, however, Smith's behavior changed "very little," according to the report. The officer approached Smith and pressed the Taser against his back, causing Smith to fall. He was then detained.
Smith was heavily intoxicated and smelled heavily of alcohol, according to the report. Upon closer inspection, officers realized the Taser probes had become stuck in Smith's clothing and never impacted his skin on the first attempt.
The female victims told officers Smith had been drinking throughout the day and was arguing with them about "random" topics. They reportedly tried to calm him down but he was "too unreasonable due to his level of intoxication."
Smith went to the back of the home, retrieved a firearm and loaded it in front of the victims, according to the report. They retreated into a bedroom and locked the door.
Smith told the victims they had 10 minutes to come out or he would start shooting, according to the report. The victims then opened a window and jumped out.
Officers searched Smith after the incident and found a rifle bullet in his pants pocket, according to the report. They found a fully-loaded AK-47 with 23 rounds hidden under some leaves near a tree, the report stated. The gun was placed into evidence.
Smith has a criminal history dating back to 1971, "including crimes that make him a felon by statute," according to the report.
Teddy Kulmala covers the crime beat for the Aiken Standard. He is a graduate of Clemson University and hails from Williston.

An American Eagle flight that departed for Dallas at 12:30 p.m. Sunday was forced to return to the Durango-La Plata County Airport after experiencing mechanical problems.
�It took off normally,� said airport spokesman Don Brockus, �and about 15 minutes in, the pilot contacted Denver Center and said he was having difficulty with the yaw. He declared an emergency.�
The yaw is side-to-side movement on an airplane.
Passenger Doug Ivey told his wife, Christie, they heard �a loud pop� after takeoff.
American Airlines spokesman Matt Miller confirmed the mechanical difficulties, but didn�t say what the specific problem was.
�As soon as he turned around, he did tell our firefighters he did feel he was in emergency conditions,� Brockus said about the pilot, �and the firefighters declared an Alert 1, the lowest level, and brought other mutual-aid partners in to be on standby. We rolled out trucks as a precaution.�
The firefighters said the landing visually appeared normal, but Ivey said it didn�t feel that way.
�He said the landing was really rough and turbulent,� Christie Ivey said about her husband�s phone call. �He said it felt like the pilot couldn�t use the rudder, like he was having to steer with the flaps.�
Brockus said the standby ambulance and firetruck didn�t even make it to the airport before they were called off.
Passengers waited at the airport for more than five hours for a new plane, eventually departing at 6:45 p.m.

Quite often it is the simplest discoveries that are the most satisfying for me in my family history.
I was looking at the life of Edward GASSON, the son of my 4x great-grandfather Henry GASSON and quite possibly the person who registered his death.
With the help of one of my cousins I had put together a chain of census entries, a probable marriage and a burial entry, but I couldn't find a death registration for him in FreeBMD.
So what did I do? What any other genealogist would have done, went to another source. Sure enough there on Findmypast was Edward's death registration in the right registration district, in the right quarter of the right year and with the right age.
I could have also just looked at the original index image, because I knew where and when it should be, but it was just quicker for me to search on Findmypast at the time.
It was nothing really clever and it certainly doesn't rank as a major breakthrough in my family history but still it felt so satisfying to have found his death registration, and I don't really know why?
It was such a simple thing but it really made me feel so pleased that I had found his death. Perhaps I need to get out more!

DJ ain't some power dunker like Kenneth Faried. Anyone seen a 7 footer dunk like this? That dunk was just perfectly executed, get him in the dunk contest!!
He turned them down last year which was dumb. I think he will definitely do it this year and has a good chance of winning
I remember he said he was gonna join the slam dunk contest this year. I think he tweeted it while watching Bled last season
those some SDC worth type dunks
That dunk DJ did was sick. I had to watch it a few times to catch what he did lol.
That DJ dunk is better than 99% of the junk I see on the dunk contest.
Yeah me too! My brain did not compute at first
I think he should take the time off and shoot free throws in a gym. Besides, game slam dunks are way cooler then the contest because they count and we get to go nuts for real.
deandre in the dunk contest would be as great as those of shorter players because deandre is already at the rim when he dunks
It would be great is some actual stars did it this year
i think lebron is just too scared to lose
and everyone wouldn't let him live it down
its mostly about creativity now
because we have already seen most of the dunks
thats the only reason blake won
How come you use so many posts to say a couple of sentences? There is an edit button if you think of something after you submit.
cause i need 20 posts for the guess the score game....hahah
LOL I just had to come up with 6 to make my quota.
LOL I just had to come up with 6 to make my quota.
It would definitely be cool to see DJ in the dunk conest. But hey it would actually be nice to see people who actually matter in the dunk contest.. A bunch of no names is just not very fun..
I would like to see a Dunk contest that has.... Blake Griffin, Lebron James, Kevin Durant, Paul George and maybe DeAndre Jordan. If Rose were healthy add him too.
^^^^^ Who wouldn't watch that?

Former Durango resident Charles Alfred Keeler died Saturday, Feb. 23, 2013, in Pueblo. He was 71. The cause of death was complications from bypass surgery he underwent in October.
Known as �Chuck,� he was born to Cecil A. and Bertha A. Keeler on Dec. 19, 1941, in Raton, N.M. He graduated from Raton High School in 1960.
While attending high school, Mr. Keeler started working with his father at the local Safeway store. He withdrew from Texas Western College to enlist in the Army to serve his country during the Vietnam War. He returned home in 1965, continuing his career with Safeway.
In 1966, he married Sharon L. Morgan in Raton.
His career as a Safeway manager allowed them to live in and enjoy many cities. In addition to living in Durango from 1979 to 1987, they lived in Pueblo, Walsenburg, La Junta, Grand Junction, Salida and Clayton, N.M.
Mrs. Keeler died from breast cancer in 1997.
Mr. Keeler retired in 1998 after a 43-year career with Safeway. Being retired allowed him more time to spend with his new wife, Carmen (Voss) Keeler, whom he married in 1999 in Estes Park.
After retiring, the Keelers focused on their hobbies and grandchildren.
An avid sportsman, Mr. Keeler dabbled in archery and guns when he was young and it continued throughout his life. He hunted a bit, but spent most of his spare time at various shooting matches and many disciplines through the years. He was a member of the Single Action Shooting Society.
�Chuck most enjoyed teaching his grandsons the finer points of hunting and marksmanship,� his family said. �He was known by his S.A.S.S. alias, �Chuckwagon Chuck.� He prided himself on his shooting accomplishments and even started casting his own bullets and shooting black powder.�
Mr. Keeler is survived by his wife of more than 13 years, Carmen Keeler of Pueblo; children Kimberly Roth of Bayfield and Shawn Keeler of Salida; stepchildren Aaron Voss of Phoenix and Laura Harley of Tonto Basin, Ariz.; brother, Curtis Keeler of Raton; three grandchildren; two great-grandchildren; and four nieces and four nephews.
Cremation has taken place. At his request, there will be no services. The ashes will be scattered at a favorite place in the mountains in the spring.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the Bayfield Super Shooters, c/o La Plata County 4-H Club, 564 County Road 504, Bayfield, CO 81122.
Online condolences may be sent at www.MontgomerySteward.com.

has also sensed, rightly, that the US cannot stabilize Afghanistan unless it
fixes Pakistan's profound insecurities and gets its army to level with the US
and stop supporting America's enemies in Afghanistan. Few Indians disagree with
Obama's reasoning that the threats to Pakistan's security are internal and do
not come from India. But many are beginning to get anxious about the third step
in Obama's logic: to get Pakistan to cooperate with the US in Afghanistan,
Washington must actively seek to resolve Islamabad's problem with New Delhi
over Kashmir. Put simply, the Indian fear is that they are being asked to pick
up the political tab for America's failed policy in Afghanistan, and for the
Pakistan Army's deliberate betrayal of US interests there.

Alex over at the Winging It blog (and Queen of one-place studies) issued a challenge to bloggers to write about an ancestral place for the Geneabloggers Those Places Thursday weekly blogging prompt. As usual I procrastinated and couldn't make up my mind about which place to write about and which place I could do justice to in one blog post. In the end I settled on Hatterells as it has been at the forefront of my mind this week.
My previous posts about Hatterells concerned a specific house (or farm) where my grandmother lived but the name Hatterells also refers to a small area in the parish of West Grinstead, Sussex. To say that the area was sparsely populated would be an understatement, the house I mentioned (or rather pair of houses), seems to have been the only home in the area.
Perhaps because of there doesn't seem to be a great deal known about the place and this post is possibly more about geography than history, so having said that lets start with a map.
Image produced from the Ordnance Survey Get-a-map service.
Image reproduced with kind permission of Ordnance Survey and Ordnance Survey of Northern Ireland.
The area I am referring doesn't have any clearly defined boundaries, the key feature here is the River Adur running roughly north-south through the middle of the map, which divides the area in two. There are four other interesting features that make up the area.
- The bridge crossing the river (marked Hatterell Bridge on the map)
- The site of the various buildings (marked Hatterell on the map)
- The wood to the north-east of the river (not named on the map but known as Hatterells Wood)
- The causeway from the river to the wood (not marked on this map but visible on older maps at larger scales)
The bridge is at the centre of the area I would call Hatterells and if I had to put a boundary on the area then I would probably draw a circle centred on the bridge with a radius of about a third of a mile.
1. The bridge – the current bridge is not particularly attractive, the water beneath it is divided into three separate channels, and at various times the water level downstream is controlled with boards placed across the channels. Interestingly you can find out the water level at Hatterells on the Environment Agency website. This bridge replaces an earlier bridge, which was a lift bridge (described on Ordnance Survey maps as a draw bridge), presumably built when the river was made into a navigation (the Baybridge Canal) in the 1820s. However I am assuming that there was an earlier bridge here.
2. The buildings – although nothing remains now, except a pond and a few bits of debris, there were several buildings here to the west of the river, although I have no real idea of the age or purpose of the buildings. It seems likely that together they made up a farm settlement, probably as part of Clothalls Farm rather than as an independent concern.
3. The wood – the woodland to the east of the river is actually two distinct woods, the northern part is Hatterells Wood, whilst the southern part is Whitenwick Rough. Both woods are on a slope, leading down to the fields along the river. They are divided by a deeply worn track leading straight down through the woods, which is probably six feet below the level of the surrounding ground in places and suggests a well used path of great age.
4. The causeway – between the wood and the bridge is a raised path, barely noticeable at the river end, but nearer the wood it is more clearly defined. The fields here can become quite wet and flood, this path suggests an attempt to provide a drier surface for people passing between the river and the wood. The path is much more noticeable on older maps at larger scales than it is on modern maps.
The more I look at this area the more interesting it seems and certainly worthy of further study, and combining several areas of study, including family history (owners and residents of the buildings), house history (the buildings themselves), landscape history (the woods and paths), industrial history (the river bridge) and even military history because Canadian soldiers trained here during the Second World War.
Whether I have the time to actually investigate this area further is another matter, but it is quite a nice size project (small enough) to work on and of course it has a personal connection to my own family which makes it more worthwhile.

For quite some time a number of our visitors have commented about how incredibly beautiful the natural landscape is at Crystal Castle and how wonderful it would be to paint, draw or sculpt.
Well, we are very pleased to announce that Crystal Castle will now offer a range of art workshops with the very first one day drawing workshop to be held on Sunday 24th of July 2011with visual artist Sharon Muir.
Sharon has worked as a professional artist for more than two decades. She uses a range of media in her work and her last two solo exhibitions have been inspired by her concern about our diminishing natural world. Her work has been selected for nationally recognised competitions such as the Jacaranda Drawing Award, Prometheus Visual Art Award and Dominique Segan Drawing Award.
Sharon has traveled widely as a freelance art teacher and has taught workshops throughout Australia, including touring outback QLD and NSW for three years as part of the Flying Arts Team. She has also facilitated numerous large-scaled community art projects. A talented and enthusiastic teacher Sharon really enjoys nurturing the creativity of her students.
The drawing workshop will focus on drawing techniques and materials with graphite pencils and felt tipped pens. Weather permitting they will be held outside and participants will have an opportunity to draw from the abundant beauty of nature in the Castle grounds. Sharon will be guiding you to explore the amazing variety of patterns, forms and textures found in nature and to experiment with a variety of techniques in a relaxed but stimulating environment.
Beginners and more experienced artists are welcome. With only ten places available, make sure you book NOW to avoid disappointment.
When: Sunday 24 July 2011

Time: 10.30am – 4.00pm (one hour lunch at your own expense)

Hey guys! It's time for recapping my monthly favorite beauty products of this August. As you know, this month has been filled with lots of travel. With the whole packing and moving process, a lot of my readily-available cosmetics and beauty products have been limited so I wanted to share some solid staples that have made it to the small makeup pouch that I've been living out of for the last few weeks!
Everyday Minerals Foundation (Mix of Golden Medium + Fairly Light Neutral)
Holika Holika Juicy Shine Lip Balm in Raspberry
Too Faced 3-Way Lash Lining Tool
Shiseido Water In Lip in Pear (Water In Lip in Kusumi Reset)
The Balm Frat Boy blush
J. Crew ruffle tops (similar/similar/similar with peplum)
ASOS necklace (similar/similar/affordable Forever21 version)
Hautelook earrings (my invite)
So the reason I included two lip balms this month is because my routine has gotten super low-key with everything being so busy. What can I grab that will make me look better but is quick, easy, and is good for my overall skin/lip health?
If you can forgive my super dry hands, you can see the texture of the Holika Holika Juicy Shine Lip Balm in Raspberry which has been my favorite lippy this month. It's very balmy in texture and imparts a pretty pink wash to the lips. I was initially worried that it might feel grainy since I could see small sparkles on the stick itself, but it's not a problem when the product is applied. It also smells like raspberry candy!
My other quick & easy go-to product has been the The Balm Frat Boy blush. This is a great warm pink matte that would look good on many skintones, and works for everyday wear. I had never tried The Balm's blush products before but I'm quite satisfied with the quality and portability of this one so far so I'll definitely be trying out more in the future. Love how the packaging isn't wasteful too! :)
Oh man, I just noticed my nails in that last photo. You can definitely tell I've been busy moving, cleaning, and banging my hands up, right? There's just not a lot of time or reason to do them right now when I know I'm going to be so hard on them again. I can't wait until I can get settled again and finally take some time for myself! :D
Thank you so much for all your helpful packing tips in the comments of my last post! It was really encouraging to see that moving is such a difficult and stressful ordeal for everyone. I definitely went into it with much more of a can-do attitude knowing that I could be a little more prepared this time. I'm finding a lot of blessings in living simply and I hope that in my future home I can live that way as well.
Speaking of simple blessings, I shared something that always fills my heart with joy at 8:03 of the video (and also here on my twitter). I hope that if you watch it, it will give you a bit of happiness too!
As always, thanks so much for reading and I hope you have a great Labor Day weekend!
