The incomparable service at Wujek-Calcaterra & Sons reflects generations of trusted experience. The values and vision of two respected families were united in 1984, when Edward J. Wujek and Lawrence M. Calcaterra co-founded the Wujek-Calcaterra Funeral Home in Sterling Heights, followed by the Shelby Township Chapel in 1998. The tradition continues with the next generation of Wujeks and Calcaterras. This strong family bond encircles your family when you place your funeral needs in our care.
Our home is your home during a time of loss. We care for your family with the same compassion we would want for our own family members. We are well-staffed and knowledgeable, with a licensed funeral director accessible 24 hours a day – so you are sure to receive personal attention when you need it most. We promise to help you keep funeral costs within your means, while planning a thoughtful tribute to a life that's meant the world to you. You may find the ultimate in service and surroundings is also the most reasonable.

Awesome Resort
The owner designed and captured what represents Floridian style. So much detail was put into the entire premises, walkways, lagoon style pool and into the Princess Palm we stayed in. This was my first time there and won't be my last! Staff from the office to maintenance of the premises were friendly but respectful of our privacy. The boat marina accomodations are top notch as well.

According to Civil War records, my Gr Grandfather, James Thomas Clarke was born in 1826 in Wake Co, NC. He migrated to Franklin CO, AL then Lowndes Co, MS in the 1840s. He was in the CSA and captured at Vicksburg, MS July 4, 1863 then returned to farm in Lowndes co/later Clay Co, MS.
SO far, he is th only one of my ancestors that I do not know his parents, my GrGr grandparents, and I continually run into a brick wall in research. Could someone help with the Clarke family in Wake Co, NC in 1820s. Thanks so much.

Birthday Girl Reviews

Birthday Girl is a strange fish. It screams 'This is a Film4 production' for the first half an hour, then gets good then turns into a semi-comedy/semi-violent thriller. I like Ben Chaplin but I don't think he's ever reached his full potential. Nicole Kidman was a bit of a coup as far as casting goes but the inclusion of Vincent Cassel and Mathieu Kassovitz should have made this an awesome thriller, come to think of it on the other hand the inclusion of British TV comedy favourites such as Alexander Armstrong, Ben Miller, Stephen Mangan, Mark Gatiss and Reece Shearsmith should have made it an awesome comedy caper but neither transpired. The ending was slow, silly and uninspired. *Spoilers* He left England as a Bank Robber (even though he didn't really rob it) and left with �90,000. A lot of money sure but he left a �30,000 a year job and a three bedroom house in St Albans which would easily be worth �300,000, not to mention his classic MG that, even though it broke down, could fetch 2-3,000. Daft.

What to say about this movie. On the plus side - it stars Nicole Kidman with very few clothes. It is pretty strange - an Australian playing a Russian who speaks English, but pretends not to. On the negative side - I don't think it is one of Nicole's best movies.
A nerdy guy orders a Russian non-English-speaking mail order bride. He finds out she is not quite what he was expecting.

It's not a good movie but it was okay to watch. Ben Chaplin is good...Vincent Cassel is good. And Nicole Kidman's russian sound like an asian speaking russian. I wouldn't recomend it. But it's not bad or boring.

A fun, off beat sleeper of a movie. Nicole Kidman is good in this one, and Ben Chaplin does his usual great job. It was not what I was expecting, and I was actually surprised that I liked it as much as I did (especially since there are many people that gave it 1 or 2 stars..??). Good for laughs, and has that darker side to keep it interesting! Good Movie, in my opinion, and I am NOT a Nicole Kidman fan for the most part.

For the first forty-five minutes of this film, I liked it better when it was called Derailed. At least that had Clive Owen in it. The second forty-five minutes did little to further develop the characters, and there weren't any compelling suspense/action sequence that adequately held my attention. Throughout, the film had a few chuckle-worthy moments that made me wonder whether the filmmakers wanted to make a thriller or a comedy. Either way, it failed to engage, and I think it would've benefited from a decision to move the story in one of those directions.

Obviously a low budget British film, that wouldn?t usually attract the likes of Vincent Cassel and Nicole Kidman.
Slow moving and very dry humoured, ?Birthday Girl? is probably not quite the film you?d expect it to turn out to be.
Bizarrely, there were claims that Cassel learned Russian for the film ?Extreme Measures? but it would appear that Cassel was already familiar to some of the language before hand.
Watchable, not brilliant.

A quirky English film a mix of black comedy and drama. It has a few funny moments, a bit more action and twists towards the end. Nicole kidman sheds hers clothes again as a Russian mail order bride who doesn't speak English. However all is not as it appears. Far from a classic but it's ok to pass the time and will raise a few smiles.

I thought this film was sort of romantic in a dysfunctional way...It was a different role for Nicole Kidman, I wasn't used to seeing her with dark hair and a little messed up.
It's about this loney guy who works a lot and decides to order a Russian bride, which happens to be Nicole Kidman...and it all starts with her.

Well, they tried to make a dark comedy thriller here but the ingredients don't blend properly and takes a left turn too many. Chaplin is a little too naive, but Kidman's delicious Russian accent helps.

A twisted romantic thriller type thing. And it's extremely British too. This is also probably the first time I've enjoyed watching Nicole Kidman. The story keeps chucking up surprises, it doesn't hang around and its only slip is when it tries to be funny by chucking in a who's who of English TV comedians. Great to see Matthieu Kassovitz doing decent work too before Hollywood starting chucking rubbish scripts at him to direct.
Worth seeing.

Not bad, but not unforgettable either. Kudos to Nicole Kidman for her fine acting, and particularly for mastering Russian for her role. The tone shifted unexpectedly throughout the film - it was hard to tell the difference between what was thriller and what was black comedy/romantic comedy. Short, simple, and compact little story though, which was a nice change.

As my friends on Facebook well know, our family has a picture that is known as 'The Unfortunate Wrinkle'. This picture has made many people laugh and/or blush over the years, but not many of you know the whole story behind it. So here I am, bearing it all on the blog and trying to save my reputation.
Cussing is not my thing. Yes, when my brother Shannon and I were little we would pretend to cuss while we were in the car waiting on mom to finish shopping at Big Star. But since our parents didn't cuss AT ALL, we didn't really have a 'well-rounded' vocabulary. So we made up words that sounded like gibberish and called it cussin'. We were precious children…
So, as I said, cussing is not my thing.
Fast Forward about 30 years and my middle child (Buster) was having a Thanksgiving feast at school. Students could dress as either a Pilgrim or a Native American for this day at school. Buster chose the Native American of course. I made a shirt that was beaded and fringed at the bottom and painted his tribal name on the front: Chief Red Britches. You see, he was wearing red shorts that day and I thought I was being oh so clever.
I got him dressed with the shirt, shorts and his headdress. He was so proud. He was regal.
He was Chief Red Britches.
When your child is THAT proud of how he/she looks and you MADE the costume, you naturally take a picture. So before school, I had him sit at the dining table and pose using his Native American persona. This picture really show his personality and I was thrilled with how it turned out. I emailed it to my mom of course. Because that is what one does when one feels proud.
…Pride cometh before the fall…
That same morning was Bible study Thursday. I was telling my friends how cute Buster had been all dressed up that morning. I pulled the picture up on my phone and passed it around AT BIBLE STUDY. I was very pleased with myself.
Until my friend said "I'm not seeing the R".
"Oh, it says RED britches" I said thinking that she couldn't see that R.
"No, I mean the other R." she said laughing.
I got my phone from her with the intention of explaining it to her, bless her heart.
Then I saw it. The unfortunate wrinkle. It was there. Hiding the other R.
Now, one would think that it was just shot at a weird angle or perhaps folded because he was leaning up against the table…Right?
One would be wrong. I give you Exhibit B:
The Unfortunate Wrinkle was in every picture that I took that day.

Red Dead's plot was fantastic. An amazing cast of eclectic characters accompanied you all the way to one of modern gaming's most incredible finales, but John Marston was a questionable protagonist.
He rarely conveyed any real personality, instead submitting to the will of others before being brushed aside and stumbling his way into another sticky situation. He sounded bored when he was supposed to be angry, he seemed insincere when he was attempting to be funny, he claimed to be a man of morals but then committed atrocities. Overall it wasn't the best portrayal of someone that's regularly claimed to be one of of the Wild West's most fearsome gunslinger.
This isn't to say we didn't like Marston, but it felt strange playing as a good guy and doing horrible stuff when so much emphasis was placed on what a decent lad ol' Johnny boy was in the narrative.
With Red Dead 2, we want a true bad ass, the most awe-inspiring cowboy in the entire frontier. Give us gaming's version of Sergio Leone's Man with No Name, Akira Kurosawa's Yojimbo or Stephen King's Roland Deschain. Make him stand out from all the other middle-of-the-road cowboys around him, put him at the centre of something huge.
It's a stretch to imagine, but dynamic conversations that change depending on your play style would avoid the jarring nature of Red Dead Redemption. Conversation wheels à la Mass Effect would let you actively decide your character's persona, but we don't want something so far down RPG Lane that it jeopardises the cinematic, driven narrative experiences that Rockstar excels at.
Some sort of complicated programming algorithm needs to be invented so we feel more like the gruff Russell Crowe in 3:10 to Yuma than the cock-nosed Owen Wilson in Shanghai Noon moseying around the west.
