"Great product. The 'editor' worked well with me to provide two different proofs for me to decide. Everything was handled very efficiently."
"very please with the finished product! customer support was very helpful! would definatly use this site again for future needs!"
"I thought the card turned out the way I visioned it to be in my head. I am very glad I chose Wedding Paper Divas. The only problem I have is trying to get to the RSVP site to check on the info. Other than that, I would definitely use them again. The chat people were very helpful and went out of their way to walk me through some of the questions I had. Very pleased with the company."
"These cards arrived before the estimated date of delivery and were secured along with the envelopes in shrink wrap. All of the invites and envelops were in perfect condition. I was impressed with the paper quality. These invites have the look and feel of being "green" as they appear to almost be from recycled stock (with out the random color strands you would find in other stock) My only complaint would be that I could not get these printed without the company's logo on the back. I felt having the logo and contact info was a bit cheap looking. Overall I love them and have already placed my 2nd order for another party I am throwing!"
"Everything about the invitation was perfect. Very vintage looking which was exactly what I wanted for my in-laws 50th wedding anniversary party. Paper quality was excellent."

All Sorts of Weird Stuff offers news and information about George R.R. Martin, in particular about his A Song of Ice and Fire series.
"When I was young, I read all sorts of stuff. One week it would be Lovecraft, the next Vance. It was all imaginative literature, or as my dad called it 'Weird Stuff.' It was all 'Weird Stuff.'"
George R.R. Martin
New to the series? Read our spoiler-free review of A Game of Thrones.
Read our Privacy Policy.
A lot of movement, a lot of upcoming things of interest to fans of ASoIaF, this year. Among them? The 2013 A Song of Ice and Fire Calendar with art by Marc Simonetti has been up for pre-order a bit… but now a cover has shown up over at Amazon.com (Amazon UK preorder), and it's very nice indeed.
Also vaguely spoilerish, as it represents a scene from A Dance with Dragons, but without context it should be fine.. Great choice of scene, though, and we're eager to see what else Simonetti has in store!
Besides that, @olafkeith alerted us to the fact that Random House has published what seems to be the official cover to A Feast of Ice and Fire (Preorder: US, UK), the official cookbook based on A Song of Ice and Fire, written by Chelsea Monroe-Cassel and Sariann Lehrer of the Inn at the Crossroads.
In fact, Random House's page now has loads of details about the book, which we'll quote in part:
also attempt the authentic medieval meals that inspired them. The authors have also suggested substitutions for some of the more fantastical ingredients, so you won't have to stock your kitchen with camel, live doves, or dragon eggs to create meals fit for a king (or a khaleesi). In all, A Feast of Ice and Fire contains more than 100 recipes, divided by region:
There's even a guide to dining and entertaining in the style of the Seven Kingdoms. Exhaustively researched and reverently detailed, accompanied by passages from all five books in the series and full-color photographs guaranteed to whet your appetite, this is the companion to the blockbuster phenomenon that millions of stomachs have been growling for. And remember, winter is coming—so don't be afraid to put on a few pounds.
Good times, and we've some to report soon about some other upcoming GRRM-related works.
The Westeros network consists of several different sites, including a forum and a wiki, for all your A Song of Ice and Fire needs.

I'd risk prison for my chidren - their life, their health, their well-being. When you have a child in your life, very few people/things seem worth giving up the chance to be with him in the first place.

If I were driving someone with a medical emergency to a hospital I'd speed as much as seemed possible; a ticket would be okay, I doubt it would end in prison.

Cold prison nights
Darkness inside four walls
Freedom is paramount
Nothing compares
Sun and life outdoors
Too selfish to lose it!

Touch his cheek.
Kiss his brow.
Hold that tiny, beautiful hand.
Soft skin. The smell of baby breath.
I'd make him laugh, funny baby belly laughs…
And oh, those sweet, sweet arms around my neck.

Nada again! Nothing is worth prison...nothing. I took a class of students years ago to a "scared straight" experience. We visited a jail. We entered a door, it was locked. Then a hallway, another locked door. Let into the jail all windows are above eye level...I broke into a cold sweat...knocked down a few kids bolting out of there!

I read stories about people sent to prison and not losing hope. Some are even able to find contentment by retreating to a sanctuary in their mind's eye. I've always admired these individuals, but I don't think I'm one of them - I'm sure I'd go insane.
Perhaps I would take that risk if we were living in a world that prohibited freedom of expression anywhere and everywhere. Maybe I would speak out, on purpose or by accident, because if doing that could ever land someone in jail, then it would be pretty bleak times anyway...but then again, maybe I would remain quiet. I'm not sure.

Even if I were to land in prison, I would always fight injustice. I do feel like a hypocrite when I say that because there is nothing major about my actions against injustice but I do fight it in small everyday things of life.

In 1929 in a remote corner of the Arkansas Ozarks, a man was murdered and his fiancée raped. The firestorm of national publicity generated by those crimes left Americans with an impression of the Ozarks as a hotbed of superstition and ignorance that lingers to this day.
Author Brooks Blevins examines the crimes and their fallout in Ghost of the Ozarks: Murder and Memory in the Upland South on Sunday, May 20, 2012, at 2 p.m. at the Central Library, 14 W. 10th St.
When word got out of the murder of harmonica-playing drifter Connie Franklin and the brutal rape of his teenaged fiancé in Stone County, Arkansas, reporters from throughout the country were dispatched to the Ozarks to cover the story.
For weeks the newspapers were filled with sensational stories about night-riding moonshiners, powerful "Barons of the Hills," and a world of feudal oppression in the rugged isolation. The ensuing arrest of five local men for both crimes and the confusion and superstition surrounding their trial gave Stone County a dubious notoriety.
Closely examining how the story and its regional setting were interpreted by the media, Blevins recounts the gripping events of the murder investigation and trial, where a man claiming to be the murder victim -- the "Ghost" of the Ozarks -- appeared to testify.
Local conditions in Stone County -- which had no electricity and only one long-distance telephone line -- prompted reporters' caricatures of the region: accusations of imposture and insanity, revelations of hidden pasts and assumed names, and threats of widespread violence.
Locating the past squarely within the major currents of American history, Ghost of the Ozarks: Murder and Memory in the Upland South paints a convincing backdrop to a story that, more than 80 years later, remains riddled with mystery.
A native of the Arkansas Ozarks, Blevins is the Noel Boyd Professor of Ozarks Studies at Missouri State University. His other books include Arkansas/Arkansaw: How Bear Hunters, Hillbillies, and Good Ol' Boys Defined a State and Hill Folks: A History of Arkansas Ozarkers and Their Image.
Admission is free. RSVP online [1] or call 816.701.3407. Free parking is available at the Library District Parking Garage at 10th & Baltimore.

I am fairly new to the cedar rapids area and I was wondering what kind of leagues are going on up here?
What is the deal with buschwakers? Invite only?
Legion League starts when? 4 man/woman teams? I don't think I can muster a full 4 man team by myself. Are there often singles/doubles looking for other partners?

I bought my new refrigerator and then went home and blew a kiss to my 20 year old garage fridge and my 40 year old upright freezer. They evidently were born in a different era when they still "made 'em like they used to."
What does this have to do with today's post? Well, it's because of the fridge mishap that I was forced to completely empty the contents of the old fridge/freezer and then refill the new one. This is a great way to take inventory, by the way. I found a lone Granny Smith apple hiding in the back of the fruit bin and I needed to use some ground turkey that had begun to thaw during the meltdown, so I came up with this recipe that includes both. You know what they say about burgers these days, don't you? They don't make 'em like they used to.
Curried Turkey Burgers With Apple Chutney
1 TBSP olive oil
1 cup onions, diced
1 cup bell pepper, diced (I used an orange one)
2 tsp fresh minced ginger root
1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
salt and pepper
1 clove of garlic, minced
1 TBSP sweet curry powder
1 TBSP reduced-sodium soy sauce
2 TBSP chopped fresh parsley
1 pound lean ground turkey (my package was actually 1.2 pounds)
1/2- 1 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
Heat olive oil in skillet over medium heat. Add onions, bell pepper and ginger. Season with crushed red pepper flakes, salt and pepper. Saute until onions are softened and translucent, 5-6 minutes. Add the garlic and saute for another minute or two. Remove pan from heat and stir in curry powder, soy sauce and parsley. Let cool for a few minutes.
Place ground turkey in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper and add the reserved vegetables. Combine well but don't over mix. Divide mixture into four equal patties. Grill or pan fry in a little olive oil until desired doneness. I pan fried mine in olive oil over medium heat for 6 minutes per side.
To serve: Place lettuce on lower bun half. Place burger on top of lettuce and then spoon the apple chutney on top (recipe follows) Garnish with chives (optional)
Apple Chutney
2 tsp olive oil
1 Granny Smith apple, peeled, cored and diced
1/2 cup onions, diced
1 tsp fresh minced ginger root
pinch of crushed red pepper flakes
salt and pepper
1/2 tsp sweet curry powder
1/2 TBSP brown sugar
1 TBSP fresh lemon juice
In a medium non-stick skillet heat olive oil over medium heat. Add apples, onions and ginger and season with red pepper flakes, salt and pepper. Saute until onions and apples have softened a bit and then add the curry powder and brown sugar. Continue to cook until apples are completely soft. Remove pan from heat and stir in the lemon juice.

Wasn't Van Purse' face a picture after the game. I can only imagine he was thinking 'FFS why did I join this mob. While Arsenal are still in the CL with a chance. I had to smile. Twice he had a chance to gather a ball in before shooting, but just like a big head, he chose the spectacular one, and made a #$%$ of it. Wasn't he supposed to be the match winner instead of Rooney? Didn't impress me much.
I wonder what will be the reaction would be to Arsenal knocking over the Germans. Not impossible, and stranger things etc.
"why did I join this mob" - to win a premier league medal, something he knew he'd never get at the Goners. Ask Nasri and Clichy.
"While Arsenal are still in the CL with a chance" - hahahaha; what are you smoking?
"While Arsenal are still in the CL with a chance"
Yes, MATHEMATICALLY do-able, Rikki. The only English club still in the CL, FACT!
Whereas Man U are OUT of Europe.......... SIMPLY NOT GOOD ENOUGH, geddit..... FACT!

Met up with some college buddies and hired a car to take us to Woostah. That was a good call. Thought we might need a snow cat, but the Lincoln made good time until we got close. I was surprised at how crowded it was given the weather and non sell out. One friend hadn't seen phish in 20 years. Damn. Time flies. It was very apropos to get Twenty Years Later as the sole "new" tune. Phish sounds better than they did 20 years ago, no question in my alleged mind. I love it when Mike or Page takes over. Trey is still the star of the show but he is listening and playing fewer, better notes. Big fan of v 3.0. Thank ye, Gods of rock.
We had fun trying to predict some of the set list before the show. Ice and 7 Below were obvious choices. I had an oddly specific premonition that nearly came true. I called the Loving Cup closer - a song whose ubiquity has been lamented here, but it is still one of my all time favorite covers - and predicted a change in lyrics from "I'm the plowman in the valley with a face full of mud" to "I'm the plowman in the *driveway* with a face full of *snow*". So close. If that had happened, we would have directed the car straight to Foxwoods.
Expect tonight to be a more rocking, more typical set I. But, you never know because this band still can surprise. Looking forward to the rest of this new years run.

Tuesday, April 3, 2012
9:30 a.m.
Rory McIlroy (N. Ireland) is happy to be back at the Masters and is even more excited to prove himself from last year's disappointment.
"It's a great honor," he said in a news conference Tuesday.
He says he's been playing some good golf leading up to this week and that he's hoping to put himself in contention to "win this thing."
McIlroy said he wasn't ready to win last year but started putting what he learned into practice.
Many of the journalists in the room brought up Tiger Woods, but McIlroy said he couldn't care less about what the bookies think.
"It's great for the game of golf that Tiger is back playing well," he said. "He creates excitement that no one else in the game can."
While some people are saying Woods and McIlroy are the only two who could win the Masters this year, McIlroy was quick to dismiss that. With the 80-plus players out there, he said it's impossible to focus on two or three guys.
He said he's been taking the comparisons with "a pinch of salt."
While he's trying not to think a lot about last year, he said you've got to be ready to take the losses as a golfer.
"It's only golf," he said. "It's not like anybody died out there last Sunday."
Last year, he said he wasn't himself -- he was too focused and was trying to keep the outside world away.
Last year's tournament ended in heartbreak for McIlroy.
"It was the first time that I had cried in a long time about anything," he said.
He said a call from Greg Norman really put things into perspective. But when he tried to come up with the year of that tournament, he couldn't quite put it together.
"Sorry, I wasn't born," he said to a room full of laughter.
He had another funny moment during the news conference when his phone went off.
"No phones at Augusta," he laughed.
1 p.m.
Charl Schwartzel is happy to be back after his win at the Masters last year.
The confidence he's gained from his 2011 win has helped him.
"I now feel that every time I pitch up at a big, major event, that I can win," he said in a news conference Tuesday.
His astonishing finish with four birdies is one that stunned many, but he said he didn't quite realize it was happening at the time.
"When I finished that Sunday, I wasn't even conscious of the four birdies that I just made," Schwartzel said. "I was just over the moon putting on the green jacket."
He said watching it back later that it looked "pretty spectacular on the TV."
With so many solid competitors in the tournament this year, Schwartzel said it will definitely be the guy who finishes the best of the back nine who will win.
He hadn't come back to Augusta National until last Thursday when he came with his brother and father, as well as a member, to play the course.
"Driving down Magnolia Lane as a champion, that definitely gave me a tingle down my spine," Schwartzel said.
While the competition for the coveted green jacket is going to start heating up on Thursday, Schwartzel said he's not scared of the hype other players have been getting.
"I go about my business as I normally do, and I feel -- and I know -- if I play my best, I can compete with anyone," he said.
And don't count him out to win this year.
"I feel like if I've done it before, why can't I do it again?" he said.
His native country was a big topic of discussion. Schwartzel is the third South African to win the Masters. Gary Player, a fellow South African, will be an honorary starter at the tournament this year. He said it "feels weird" that Ernie Els of South Africa won't be there this year.
"I know just how much this tournament means to him," he said.
As for tonight's Masters Club dinner, Schwartzel said he's both excited and nervous.
The menu he selected includes South African barbecue, complete with monkey gland sauce, which he said is not what the title claims it is -- it's more like a chutney. Schwartzel said he's most looking forward to sampling the ice cream.
While he originally wanted to cook the meat for the dinner, he decided it wouldn't be the best idea.
Plus, "I don't want to get too much oil on my green jacket, either," he said.
2:30 p.m.
Found lots of players finishing up at the 18th hole this afternoon, including Jose Maria Olazabal, Charles Howell III, Bo Van Pelt, Fred Couples, Sean O'Hair and Brandt Snedeker.
Also saw K.T. Kim this afternoon.
Rickie Fowler was out practicing as well.
Just gotta love this picture.
3 p.m.
The news conference for Tiger Woods this afternoon was standing room only as members of the media gathered to hear from the former Masters champion, who just won big at Bay Hill.
Woods said getting another win felt great.
"The way I hit the golf ball and putted all day, I felt like I went out there and earned the win," he said in a news conference. "It wasn't given to me. I had to go out there and shoot a really good number under really tough conditions."
When asked about where he was at during the tournament in 2010, he said he just wasn't hitting the ball very well.
"It was just having an understanding of how to play around this golf course, and that's certainly, as I was explaining earlier, is that coming to a golf course that we play each and every year certainly helps," he said. "And playing here for so many years now; this is, as I said, my 18th year, so understanding how to play this golf course has really helped me over the years."
But just because he's hot on the trail of passing Jack Nicklaus' record, he made it clear he's here to win for another reason.
"I'd like the green jacket more," Woods said. "I know the 73 would be a byproduct of it, but I'm here for the green jacket."
3:30 p.m.
The pairings and starting times for rounds 1 and 2 have been released. Find them here.
4 p.m.
Gary Player, a former Masters champion, has a lot to be thankful for.
"There's never a day of my life -- let me put emphasis on it -- never a day in my life that I don't say thank you for everything that I have, because I've seen unbelievable things," he said in a news conference Tuesday.
The South African won the Masters in 1961, 1974 and 1978 and has also finished in the Top 10 12 times.
He will be an honorary starter with Jack Nicklaus and Arnold Palmer on Thursday.
"The minute they asked me, I said yes," he said.
Player and his fellow honorary starters have been extremely competitive over the years, which is why he says they'll be extremely concerned about each other's shots on Thursday.
"Between us, we were so competitive, we wanted to beat each other so badly, and we did beat each other on a lot of occasions -- in medal tournaments, in match play events, and we had our share of beating each other," he said.
Player made sure to note that the kind of prize money professional golfers receive today is so much more than what he earned in his prime.
"I mean, I look at some people, they have won one tournament in their lives -- one tournament -- and they won more money than I won winning 65 tournaments and 18 majors, nine on the regular tour and nine on the Senior Tour," he said.
Although he wishes he could play in his prime today with all of the new technology and condition of golf courses, he's not jealous.
"Not at all. It's progress. And if we didn't do that, we would be going backwards," he said.
When asked who he thinks will win this year, he said there's a lot of good guys to choose from.
"So I don't know how you better gauge Tiger; Rory McIlroy is there, every week. The hallmark of a champion, consistency. And Phil Mickelson is playing well," he said.
5 p.m.
After a long day of practice rounds, several golfers still got some extra putting time in before calling it a day.
Phil Mickelson:
Miguel Angel Jimenez (Spain):
Johnson Wagner:
Darren Clarke (N. Ireland) on first hole around 5 p.m.
Keegan Bradley:
Aaron Baddeley (Australia):

Fort Hays State held a 27-0 lead over Central Missouri midway through the second quarter on Saturday (Nov. 9) in Warrensburg, Mo., but Central Missouri rallied for 41 unanswered points and defeated the Tigers 48-34. The loss snapped Fort Hays State's five-game win streak.
The Fort Hays State offense was firing on all cylinders early in the game. FHSU took the opening drive 71 yards, capped by a 25-yard touchdown pass to Keaton Callins from Treveon Albert. The extra-point failed and FHSU led 6-0.
On the ensuing Central Missouri drive, a botched snap on a 21-yard field goal attempt led to an incomplete pass and no points for the Mules. FHSU took advantage of the miscue and marched 97 yards for another touchdown, this time a 35-yard pass from Albert to Ed Williams, making it 13-0.
The Tigers stopped the Mules on fourth down once again deep in FHSU territory and then pushed its lead to 20-0 on an Albert 4-yard touchdown pass to Williams to cap an 84-yard drive. FHSU forced a fumble on the ensuing kick return, got the ball back, and then made it 27-0 on a Treveon Albert two-yard run. The Tigers looked in total control with 8:17 remaining in the first half.
Central Missouri got momentum shifted in its favor when it got a 49-yard return on the next kickoff, setting up a short field for its offense. UCM punched its first touchdown in with 6:42 remaining in the opening half, making it 27-7. The Mules forced a 3-and-out on the next Tiger possession, then marched down the field all the way to the FHSU 1-yardline. This was a huge turning point in the game.
The FHSU defense held UCM out of the endzone for three straight plays, but finally on fourth down, the Mules got a 1-yard touchdown pass to make it 27-14 just before halftime. FHSU had a chance at more points, but a long pass to the endzone to Ed Williams was broken up by the UCM defender, or else it would have been six more for the Tigers.
The Mules kept the pressure on by coming out of halftime and scoring a touchdown quickly to make it 27-21 and the Fort Hays State offense started to struggle for the remainder of the third quarter. The Mules completed the big comeback to take the lead 28-27 with 1:17 remaining in the third.
FHSU had the ball back two more times on offense and could not get anything going before another Central Missouri touchdown, a 52-yard pass to make it 35-27. After Treveon Albert had a pass intercepted, UCM took advantage of the short field for another touchdown to make it 41-27 with 7:30 remaining in the game.
The Tiger offense finally pushed down the field and Albert found Callins on a 4-yard touchdown pass to pull FHSU within seven at 41-34. But, UCM crushed any hope of a Tiger comeback with a 94-yard kickoff return for a touchdown by LaVance Taylor. That made the eventual final score of 48-34.
Albert finished with a season-high 313 passing yards and four touchdowns, completing 21-of-40 passes. Andre Smith led FHSU in rushing with 88 yards and Keaton Callins had 149 receiving yards with two touchdowns. Justin McPhail and Micheal Terry led the Tiger defense each with nine tackles. Micheal Jordan recorded an interception for FHSU.
Hayden Hawk threw for 330 yards and four touchdowns for Central Missouri. LaVance Taylor led the Mule rushing game with 80 yards and Ronrei Lloyd finished with 111 receiving yards. Alex Perlin led UCM in tackles with nine and recorded one interception.
Fort Hays State, now 5-5 overall and 3-5 MIAA, looks for a winning season when it hosts Nebraska-Kearney next Saturday (Nov. 16) in Hays at 2 pm.
FHSU blows big lead on the road at Central Missouri

About the Book
After Daybreak brings J. A. London's romantic dystopian Darkness Before Dawn series to a thrilling conclusion.
Dawn grew up behind a wall, terrified of the vampires outside who controlled the lives of humans and demanded their blood. But when she became a delegate for her city and met Victor, she realized that not all vampires were the same, that maybe one could be trusted.
Now Day Walker Sin is infecting his followers with a disease that turns them into mindless killers. Dawn and Victor will have to convince humans and vampires to band together to stop him, because alone they will all die.
After Daybreak is perfect for fans of the YA series Morganville Vampires and the Vampire Diaries.
Our last hope lies with our oldest enemies.
When we lost the war with the vampires, our world changed. The Old Family overlords trapped us in a few scattered cities and demanded our blood. Then Victor—the first vampire I've ever trusted, ever loved—came to power, and I hoped for peace between our kinds. Only now a new type of monster, Day Walkers, has emerged, and their maniacal leader is threatening to destroy us all, human and vampire alike.
The Old Family Council is stubborn and proud, unwilling to acknowledge the danger. But once I claim my birthright as the last living member of the Montgomery line, they will have to listen to me.
Neither fully human nor vampire, I am the bridge between both. Even if I'm not sure where I belong anymore, I know that the only way any of us will survive is if we stand together.

Local residents don't currently pay for it, but recycling isn't free.
The cost of the waste diversion service has put the Summit County Landfill in the red in recent years as revenue from trash has plummeted.
Now, with the already-strapped Summit County government ponying up $155,000 next year to keep the once self-sufficient facility afloat, local officials are considering asking voters to approve a new tax to pay for recycling services.
"We're certainly leaning in that direction," assistant Summit County manager Thad Noll said. "We have to figure out a way for people to pay for recycling."
Many Summit County residents already pay their trash haulers to pick up their recycling, but the processing service is free at the county-owned landfill.
A task force charged with addressing the landfill's budget problems is vetting the idea of a property tax ballot question, but there are other possible solutions.
One would be ending the local recycling program.
"We don't want to cut recycling," Noll said. "We think recycling is important. It's important for our community, it's important for the environment, it's important for the life of the landfill and it's important because it's the socially, human right thing to do."
If a landfill-targeted tax was to be put to the voters, it would likely be a slim property tax increase, amounting to approximately $2.23 per $400,000 in property value. The question would appear as a countywide measure and would have to win the approval of the Summit Board of County Commissioners to make it to the ballot.
"We're definitely working on a ballot measure for next November," said Breckenridge Town Councilwoman Wendy Wolfe, who sits on the task force.
The idea of a sales tax was put forward, but shot down by officials from the local towns, Noll said.
It's still unclear how a tax increase might impact trash hauler's service fees, officials said. But it's possible local municipalities might move to a mandated volume-based fee system, which present a higher cost for residents who produce more trash creating an incentive for people to recycle.
"Right now, if I put out a giant garbage can and my neighbor puts out almost nothing, because they're recycling, I pay the same," Noll said. "In that case, he's subsidizing my garbage disposal."
With details still to be ironed out, task force members will likely continue to work on the issue with the goal of coming out with a recommendation in the spring, according to Noll.

UPDATE: "The Flash" Hasn't Cast Savitar, Says Berlanti
TV, Comic Books
Welcome to Food or Comics?, where every week we talk about what comics we'd buy at our local comic shop based on certain spending limits — $15 and $30 — as well as what we'd get if we had extra money or a gift card to spend on a splurge item. I'm filling in this week for Michael May, who is off in Florida spending his splurge money on mouse ears and giant turkey legs.
Check out Diamond's release list or ComicList, and tell us what you're getting in our comments field.
Chris Arrant
If I had $15, I'd start of the week with Brian K. Vaughn and Fiona Staples' Saga #7 (Image, $2.99). Saga has become a real bright spot in comics for me being sci-fi without being "sci-fi," being romance without being "romance," and being great at being great. It gives me the same excitement the way Bone, Strangers In Paradise and A Distant Soil did back in the early 90s. Next up would be Punk Rock Jesus #5 (DC/Vertigo, $2.99) by Sean Murphy. Murphy's really exceeded my expectations here, creating a nuanced and elaborate world that has great art as a bonus. You can really tell Murphy's been thinking about this story for awhile now. After that I'd get Invincible #97 (Image, $2.99), to finally get the truth behind the new Invincible, Zandale. I've been enticed by what's been teased so far, and I hope the inevitable return of Mark Grayson doesn't prevent me from seeing more of Zandale in the future. Last up with my $15 budget would be my call for the best superhero book on the stands today, Wolverine & The X-Men #20 (Marvel, $3.99). I feel like the title isn't getting the attention it deserves with Marvel NOW! upon us, but Jason Aaron and Nick Bradshaw are absolutely delivering it here.
If I had $30, I'd double back and double up on Brian Wood with Conan The Barbarian #10 (Dark Horse, $3.50) and The Massive #6 (Dark Horse, $3.50). The Massive has survived the monumental loss of artist Kristian Donaldson, forging on in Wood's story of one ship trying to survive in an ecological destitute Earth. Over at Conan The Barbarian, Declan Shalvey looks to be bringing the goods and showing he's more than a Marvel superhero artist. After that I'd get the second series debut of Where Is Jake Ellis? (Image, $3.50) by Nathan Edmondson and Tonci Zonjic. This is a mighty pairing, and seeing them peel back the layers on Jake Ellis has been fun.

About the Book
"Funny, smart, and compulsively likeable, Anna David is this decade's answer to Carrie Bradshaw. There won't be a single second you won't root for her as she bravely tries to answer the resonating question: how can I be my best self?"
—Allison Winn Scotch, New York Times bestselling author of The Department of Lost and Found
The sex-and-relationship expert on G4's Attack of the Show, author of Party Girl and Bought, and the editor of Reality Matters, Anna David is smart, successful, and single. Falling for Me is Anna's provocative, eye-opening, and inspiring chronicle of the year she changed her life by following the advice of Cosmopolitan Magazine guru Helen Gurley Brown in her classic Sex and the Single Girl. Anna's story of "How I Hung Curtains, Learned to Cook, Traveled to Seville, and Fell in Love"—and her determination to either find "the one" or accept once and for all that it's not in the cards—is touching and transformative, exhilarating and uplifting, and belongs on every bookshelf next to Eat, Pray, Love and The Happiness Project.
Like most women, whether they've chosen the Fortune 500 career path or have had five kids by 35, Anna David wondered if she'd made the right choices. Then she came upon the book Sex and the Single Girl by Helen Gurley Brown, Cosmopolitan's fearless leader from the mid-sixties to the late nineties. Immediately connecting with Gurley Brown's unique message of self-empowerment combined with femininity, Anna vowed to use Sex as a lesson plan, venturing out of her comfort zone in the hope of overcoming the fears and insecurities that had haunted her for years. Embarking on a journey both intensely personal and undeniably universal, she becomes adventurous and spontaneous—reviving her wardrobe and apartment, taking French lessons, dashing off to Seville, and whiling nights away with men she never would have considered before. In the process, she ends up meeting the person really worth changing for: herself.

Pacific golf coach Brandon Goethals spent the time between the fall and spring seasons preaching to his team the need for maturity. He received the payoff Tuesday afternoon.
The Tigers made two eagles and six birdies on the final two holes to claim The Farms Collegiate Invitational in Rancho Santa Fe by three shots over Saint Mary's. Pacific shot a final-round 291 to erase the Gaels' three-shot lead and win the 12-team event.
Sophomore Eric Sugimoto spurred the effort with a 1-over 217 total, finishing in fourth place, two shots behind medalist Emilio Cuartero of Missouri. Fellow sophomore Byron Meth was one shot behind Sugimoto, finishing in sixth place.
"This golf course is hard," Goethals said. "The greens are firm, the wind is blowing, it's tight, so you have to trust your game. We came in here with a game plan and played to our strengths. We stayed patient and put on a flurry on 17 and 18."
The Tigers erased most of Saint Mary's lead on the 17th and 18th holes. Sugimoto, Meth and freshman Austin Weatherholt made birdies on 17. Then, Weatherholt came through with an eagle on 18, as did senior Alex Edfort. Sugimoto, Meth and freshman Kevin Andrews had birdies on the final hole.
Sugimoto and the other Tigers were in a celebratory mood afterwards.
"This is so awesome," Sugimoto said. "We fought for every shot out there, stayed patient and worked hard. We all now have the confidence that we'll play well in the future."

Latest LIRR Labor Offer Could Cost MTA Another $40 Million
The Metropolitan Transportation Authority's latest offer to Long Island Rail Road unions could cost an additional $40 million a year in labor expenses, the agency said Wednesday.
The LIRR unions have been locked in tense negotiations with the MTA as a potential strike looms as soon as July 20.
Thomas Prendergast, the authority's chairman and chief executive, said Wednesday that $40 million was the authority's estimate of how much terms recommended by federal mediators would cost.
The MTA would likely pay for those added expenses by reducing how much it spends on capital projects, Mr. Prendergast said.
Earlier this year, the MTA estimated it would have to reduce such capital spending by $70 million a year starting in 2015 if the railroad and other unions settled for deals similar to one reached in April with the Transport Workers Union Local 100, which represents employees who run New York City's subway and bus system.
Mr. Prendergast said federal mediators' recommendation would force the authority to pare such capital spending by $40 million more annually, bringing the annual capital spending reduction to an estimated $110 million. Such funds are set aside to pay for construction and maintenance directly, or to back bonds issued to finance the projects.
These estimated reductions in capital spending assumes the LIRR unions agree to the MTA's latest offer, which the authority says is based on the federal mediators' recommendations. The estimate also assumes unions representing Metro-North Railroad employees would agree to the same terms.
"We've scraped all of the other available cash cupboards bare to get the TWU deal," Mr. Prendergast said after the authority's board meeting Wednesday. "So when we say we can afford it within the financial plan, we are affording it at great sacrifice."
The MTA's latest offer to LIRR unions calls for 17% wage increases in a deal covering seven years, including retroactive pay going back to 2010, when the LIRR employees' contract expired.
Concessions sought by the MTA include requiring current employees to contribute 2% of their regular pay toward health-care costs and new employees to contribute 4% for their coverage. LIRR employees currently don't contribute toward health-care costs.
Federal mediators had recommended requiring current LIRR employees to contribute 1% of their regular pay toward health-care in 2010, with their contributions escalating to 2.25% in 2015.
An earlier offer by the authority would have given LIRR employees 11% in wage increases over a six-year period. The unions had been pushing for 17% in pay bumps over a six-year term, and federal mediators sided with them in May.
The MTA and LIRR unions had agreed to meet on Friday. But the MTA's decision to publicize its latest offer on Tuesday irked the railroad's unions, who signaled they are debating whether even to meet, according to Anthony Simon, leader of a coalition of LIRR unions.
"Instead of sitting down with the only people who can make a deal, (the) MTA chose the route of cheap political grandstanding," Mr. Simon said in a statement. "It's painfully clear (the) MTA is not serious about negotiating a settlement."

Tony Parker scored six of his 32 points in the second overtime and the San Antonio Spurs beat the host Toronto Raptors 111-106 Sunday.
"He's our closer, and he has been that way for the last couple of years," said forward Tim Duncan, who chipped in with 26 points. "He steps up and makes big shots for us. That's what we ask him to do, and he's delivered for us."
Parker made jump shots on consecutive possessions with less than 1:15 to go in the second overtime.
Knicks 121, Pistons 100: Carmelo Anthony scored 29 points in just 32 minutes as New York ended a two-game losing streak by beating visiting Detroit.
The Knicks make the short trip to Brooklyn on Monday to face the Nets in a game that was supposed to be the season opener before it was postponed because of Superstorm Sandy.
"If we don't get up for this game, then I don't know what games we'll get up for," said Anthony, a Brooklyn native. "It's an inner-city game, New York vs. Brooklyn. To me, going back home, going back to my borough, playing my first game back there is a very special moment for myself."
Celtics 116, Magic 110: Kevin Garnett had 24 points and 10 rebounds as Boston outlasted host Orlando in overtime.
76ers 104, Suns 101: Point guard Jrue Holiday had 33 points and 13 assists, leading host Philadelphia over Phoenix.
Nets 98, Trail Blazers 85: Deron Williams had 15 points, 12 assists, four blocked shots and three steals as Brooklyn beat visiting Portland.
Nuggets 102, Hornets 84: Andre Iguodala scored 23 points to help lift host Denver over New Orleans.
Rockets: Sasha McHale, daughter of Houston coach Kevin McHale, died Saturday at 23.
Sasha McHale had long battled lupus, according to the Houston Chronicle, and was hospitalized with a related condition.
Kevin McHale has been on leave since Nov. 10. Kelvin Sampson has been the interim coach.

AUGUSTA, Ga. (WRDW) -- U.S. Representative Paul Broun has officially announced he's running for U.S. Senate in 2014.
The Republican has represented Georgia's 10th District since 2007.
Here's the statement Broun released to the media on Wednesday afternoon:
"I went to Congress to stand against out-of-control spending in Washington, D.C. Though it has often been a lonely fight, it is a necessary one.
We must have someone to lead the fight to stop this madness and restore fiscal restraint to our nation's capital. Georgia needs a senator who will take a stand to stop the irresponsible spending. I'll be that leader!
When I was sworn into the Marine Corps, and then again into the House of Representatives, I swore to defend the Constitution against all enemies both foreign and domestic. Out-of-control spending has become our nation's enemy.
I'll be the only candidate in this race whose first priority is to stop the runaway spending in Washington D.C. I've sponsored more legislation to reduce spending than any other Member of Congress from this state.
Georgians aren't interested in labels or affiliation, they're interested in solutions. And that begins by making Washington smaller and America bigger! That's the reason I'm running for U.S. Senate.
I'm Paul Broun. I'm ready to lead that fight against out-of-control spending. With your help, and by God's grace, this is a campaign we're going to win."

Children's Vaccines Health Center
What's Behind the Latest Measles Outbreaks?
Oct. 20, 2011 -- Safety concerns about the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine helped fuel a measles outbreak this year in Minnesota. It was the country's largest measles outbreak since 1996.
Research on the outbreak is slated to be presented Saturday at an infectious diseases meeting.
From January to July, 174 cases of measles were reported in the U.S. In Minnesota, 26 people contracted measles from February through April, says Pam Gahr, MPH, an epidemiologist with the Minnesota Department of Health. Patients ranged in age from 4 months to 51 years, and all of the cases occurred in two counties in metropolitan Minneapolis-St. Paul.
"Quite a few of the children were not old enough to be vaccinated," she says. "That we can't do much about. There are always going to be susceptible babies."
Sixteen of the children were hospitalized, but all recovered. In each of the affected counties, Gahr says, the outbreak was started by an unvaccinated child who became infected while in Kenya, where it's endemic.
Of the 26 cases, eight were Somalis, Gahr says. Minnesota has the largest Somali population in the United States, estimated to number 25,000 to 40,000.
Somalis' Low Immunization Rates
Immunization rates are far lower in Somali children than in non-Somali children, according to research Gahr and her co-authors will present at the Infectious Diseases Society of America meeting in Boston. Among children in Hennepin County, in which Minneapolis is located, only 57% of Somali children born in 2009 had received the first of the recommended two MMR doses, compared to 85% of other children.
"The Somali community is particularly concerned about the safety of MMR and its perceived association with autism," Gahr says. "Because there's not a real clear explanation for what causes autism, people grasp for something concrete."
In the past year, Andrew Wakefield, the British researcher whose 1998 paper, now discredited, popularized the idea that the MMR vaccine causes autism, met at least twice with Somali parents in Minnesota, according to news reports.
A recent study of children in the Minneapolis early childhood special education program suggested autism might be more common in Somali children, heightening parents' concerns, says Lynn Bahta, RN, PHN, a consultant for the state health department's immunization program. "The community really took that to heart," Bahta says, even though researchers couldn't confirm the children's autism diagnosis because they didn't have access to their medical records.
The measles outbreak did spur parents to immunize unvaccinated children because it made them see the disease as a real threat, she says.
But infectious disease specialist Paul Offit, MD, director of the Vaccine Information Center at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, says "once you've introduced the notion that something is possibly a problem ... it's hard to un-ring the bell."

- San Jose mayor's race: Union backing is Dave Cortese's biggest strength, weakness
SAN JOSE -- Even mayoral hopeful Pierluigi Oliverio's supporters see him as an underdog. In a contest against candidates backed by big names and money, he's courted no endorsements and is essentially running his own campaign.
But past rivals have seen the two-term councilman pull upsets before.
"I think a lot of people are underestimating him," said Councilman Pete Constant, who has not endorsed a mayoral candidate. "He's a very good campaigner. He's a very good retail meet-and-greet politician."
Since defeating a better-known and funded opponent and joining the council in 2007, Oliverio has shown an ability to drive policy. He led calls for regulating and taxing rapidly proliferating medical marijuana shops and pension changes for new hires to curb costs, both of which voters approved overwhelmingly.
In his dark-horse bid for mayor, Oliverio has focused on issues polls suggest few people are clamoring for. The San Jose councilman's first mailers to voters featured a headline that reads "PORNOGRAPHY" across a red "XXX" and notes Oliverio wants filters in the children's section of libraries -- an idea voted down at City Hall five years ago. In another mailer he railed against council members who have been "wasting time" meeting with foreign leaders.
Oliverio said the first thing he'd do in office is seek to switch the current day-night doubleheader format of weekly council meetings to ensure they all start at night to increase public comment. He wants the mayor to hire and fire the planning director, unlike any other department head. He'd put a giant checking account-style budget balancing sheet on the city's website that would update in real time.
Oliverio, who said he's most comfortable going it alone, is diverting from his competitors' public safety-centered platforms as part of an uphill climb against candidates who have much more campaign machinery than he does. He has no endorsements and says he never sought them. He's raised less than half as much cash as three of his competitors. He has no paid staff and is doing infrequent campaigning compared to his challengers.
But Oliverio is confident his views will resonate with voters and has pulled upsets before. When he first ran for City Council last decade, he had no experience and was not well-known -- but was largely credited with simply outworking his challengers by repeatedly knocking on doors in his Willow Glen district.
He knows that strategy won't work in a city-wide election. So he's highlighted his lack of endorsements and funds from big groups as a key positive tenet of his candidacy, pointing to his competitors as "special interest candidates" while saying he has true independence that is rare in politics.
"I didn't owe anybody" once in office, he said. "I think what people like is, what they see is what they get."
Oliverio, perhaps the most libertarian of all the candidates, puts forward proposals that can sometimes be difficult to pass in a complicated City Hall.
On the city's current No. 1 issue -- a cop shortage that's led to rising response times and declining arrests -- Oliverio proposed a ballot measure that would require the city to spend 40 percent of its budget on police every year. It now spends 30 percent. If public safety is the city's top priority, he argued, it should be funded accordingly.
But the council immediately voted it down 10-1 in March. He never explained how he landed on the 40 percent number, and opponents to the plan such as Mayor Chuck Reed said it would be a big mistake to limit the city's flexibility in how it spends money as different problems arise. Plus, the city was already spending more money on police than any other department.
In a mocking poem, the San Jose Police Officers' Association called the 40 percent idea "a disastrous political stunt" and said Oliverio "must be delirious, if he believes this proposal should be taken serious."
Oliverio stands by his plan, and said he'd continue to try to gain council support to place it on the ballot if elected mayor. But its overwhelming defeat at the council highlighted what critics say is his weakness in building the coalitions needed to pass legislation.
"If we're going to turn San Jose around, make it a safe city again, then we need a mayor that everyone can take seriously," said John Muhkar, president of the city's Architects and Engineers Association employee union. "A mayor that employees, residents, Fortune 500 CEOs and the governor can listen to and rally around to achieve San Jose's goals. Pierluigi is just not that person."
But Oliverio and his supporters like that he goes it alone.
"Most candidates have certain groups that they groove with," supporter Rabbi Menachem Levine said. "He would do what's best for the city, not for what certain groups need."
With his personable and humorous style, Oliverio has shown a knack for connecting with crowds. Voters say he has more of a "guy you'd get a beer with" approach than stiff politician, and he knows how to work the room.
At a recent meeting of the Cory Neighborhood Association, just north of the Valley Fair mall, he asked a crowd of about 50 people who was new to the neighborhood. A woman raised her hand and gave her name, Bianca, and Oliverio said: "Does everyone know Bianca?" He asked what street she lived on -- it was Hedding Street -- and, to the crowd's delight, he proceeded to reel off some fun facts about her block: it was one of the few areas, he said, to recently get new street lights.
When a baby began crying in the back of the room, Oliverio jumped up and joked -- "Oh, is that a baby? I thought it was me." It got laughs, as he did when he subtly dropped his campaign website address immediately after saying he wouldn't, or when he went on about how politicians never stop talking.
"I read every email you send, because I just miss you so much," he told the crowd, getting chuckles once more.
Oliverio said that personal touch, like responding to questions and complaints himself, is his secret weapon, and he has amassed a database of more than 11,000 concerns from residents. Oliverio does routine tasks, like scheduling and constituent response, that most council members delegate to staffers; at times it can be unclear whether the councilman actually has a staff.
"He shows up to everything," said his longtime friend and supporter, Paul Kanter, noting Oliverio's omni-presence at social functions, which has helped him get his name out and shine in a casual atmosphere. "He's a dark horse but he's been one before."

RANDOLPH – Gifford Medical Center is launching a new discussion group for the chronically ill and their caregivers.
To be held the second Wednesday of each month from 3-4 p.m. in the Randolph hospital's Conference Center, the first meeting is Feb. 8 and will feature a talk by Chelsea Health Center family physician Dr. Brian Sargent.
Dr. Sargent will discuss chronic illnesses, which can include anyone with diabetes, asthma, COPD, Crohn's disease, chronic pain, heart conditions, arthritis and much more.
The group is meant to offer both educational information and peer support.
"We're encouraging people to learn through education and heal through friendships," says LaRae Francis, Gifford's Blueprint project manager.
The group is part of Gifford's efforts to locally implement the Vermont Blueprint for Health, which aims to enhance care and self-management for the chronically ill.
Through the Blueprint, Gifford already offers Healthier Living Workshops. For those who have taken the workshops, this new group may be a welcome next step of ongoing support.
Participation in the Healthier Living Workshops is by no means required, however. The group is open to all, including those who are caring for or offering support to someone with a chronic illness.
Long-time Gifford diabetes educator and dietitian Jennifer Stratton will serve as the group's facilitator with help from Gifford Blueprint staff.
The meetings are free. No registration is required.
The Conference Center is on the first floor of the medical center. Use the entrance marked with a green awning, or, for handicapped accessibility, take the elevator from the lobby to the first floor. Gifford is at 44 S. Main St. (Route 12 south of the village) in Randolph. Learn more online at www.giffordmed.org.

GoldenEye sucks. It's, frankly, kind of a mess of a game. If this were a traditional review I would point out the following problems: the visuals are often muddy and hard to discern, even for its time (clipping issues are also everywhere). Movements are sluggish and unresponsive, and the N64 controller is an odd fit for FPS controls. The single player campaign feels monotonous and perfunctory, with tired objective-based missions (the player has to save Natalya four separate times) and waves of unintelligent enemies . The weapon selection is unbalanced and extremely limited. The level design, especially for multiplayer, often feels cobbled-together and inelegant.
If I just described any other game, nobody would bat an eye. But I described GoldenEye, a hallowed, sacred, downright ineffable landmark of gaming to many who remember losing countless hours to its multiplayer modes with their friends back in its heyday, relishing in the beauty of accessible, split-screen, console FPS action. I was one of them, and I absolutely loved GoldenEye. I still absolutely love GoldenEye. And even though nostalgia is an extremely persuasive emotion, I would be lying through my teeth if I said it was still "good".
But here's the thing: it's okay that GoldenEye sucks because it doesn't matter if it was ever "good" or not. Does applying a set of conventional standards to a game make all of the fond memories we've had with it any less valid, less real? Absolutely not. Video games on their own may be objects with set values, just numbers and algorithms, but they don't function completely until people play them, and people have unique and different points of view–-it's what makes us people, and it's also what makes playing videogames so damn interesting and fun. Games are ultimately subjective experiences, meaning that at some point objective analysis falls apart. To me, GoldenEye is an incredibly fun game that I still love to play, and for me, that is plentiful.
There's a saying that floats around circles of film geeks: "Films should not be measured by success or critical acclaim, but simply by our affection for them." It's time to start looking at games this way too, or else we will find ourselves in a future gaming community inhabited by Metacritic-trawling, review score-obsessed clones, robotic consumers who no longer think for themselves and spout the same regurgitated opinions about the same small lot of games. And I think that's something we can all agree definitely sucks.
And if anyone disagrees, they should come to our event at NYU and do a little exploring and discussing, and maybe they'll start to think about games differently. That can never be a "bad" thing.
Event Info
Friday, April 13th
721 Broadway, 9th Floor Lobby
The idea of "B movies" – movies that are so conventionally bad on technical and artistic levels that they surpass "unenjoyable" and somehow end up back at "entertaining" – has existed for almost half a century. Some viewers embrace these movies because they allow them to rebel against movie snobs, and some simply find something beautiful and unique buried within the trainwreck. A pertinent quote floats around certain film circles that goes something like this: "Films should not be measured by success or critical acclaim, but simply by our affection for them."
Bad is Beautiful looks at games in this way. It explores the idea of forgetting whether a game is "good" or "bad", and instead encourages thinking of it as "interesting" or "not interesting". It relishes the surreal moments that "flawed" games unintentionally create. It brings games that challenge conventional ideas of "good" out of the bargain bin and into the spotlight. It casts a skeptical eye on the Metacritic-trawling gamers of the world who stay in their safe, comfortable world of 8s, 9s and 10s and encourages them to take a risk, to explore the seedy underbelly of this art form they love so much, to diversify. It embraces the campy, the shattered, the rejected, the freakish, the dated, and the flat-out disastrous.
This is the crap avant-garde, and it's beautiful.
Games open for play include: Deadly Premonition, Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing, Extreme Paintbrawl, GoldenEye 007, Earth Defense Force 2017 and more.

Embracing Eatonville
January 20–March 18, 2007
Founded in 1886, Eatonville, Florida, is the oldest black incorporated town in the United States and was home to the celebrated Harlem Renaissance writer Zora Neale Hurston. The exhibition looks at the spirit and character of Eatonville through the work of contemporary photographers Dawoud Bey, Lonnie Graham, Carrie Mae Weems, and Deborah Willis, each of whom have created a new body of work for this exhibition, exploring the importance of place to individual and collective identity. The project is a collaboration among Light Work, a non-profit gallery supporting the work of artists in photography and digital media; A Social Studies Project (ASSP), an artists' collective; and the Zora Neale Hurston National Museum of Fine Arts in Eatonville.
Embracing Eatonville is made possible by Ford Motor Company Fund, as part of its support of UMMA's 2006–07 season.
Additional support for this exhibition has been provided by the University of MichiganŐs Office of the President and Office of the Provost, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs, Pfizer Inc., the Friends of the Museum of Art, the Katherine Tuck Enrichment Fund, and the Monroe-Brown Foundation.more info

During my years as a genealogy researcher, I have compared research to the serious practice of working jigsaw puzzles. All the puzzle pieces clearly present the need for analysis and development of solutions. Albeit, the two activities differ in some ways, I share common elements between the two that contribute to successful solutions in puzzle work and genealogy research.
Engaging in jigsaw puzzle work involves handling numerous (hundreds or thousands) pieces and limited clues relative to accurately fitting respective pieces into the whole. An effective way to begin the puzzle work is reviewing a picture of the "finished" product and using this as a guide. For puzzle enthusiasts, the work is challenging and time-consuming, but also captivating. The activity presents a great opportunity to practice mindfulness by employing focus, evaluation and analytical practice. Upon completion, a finished product exists, demonstrating persistence and patience exercised during the puzzle process.
Similar to jigsaw puzzlers, genealogy researchers face challenges, working with limited leads and the need to analyze and validate relevant family data for inclusion in a comprehensive family history. Dedicated researchers definitely utilize mindfulness to maintain focus while identifying and managing data, leads and inconsistencies. Research is also time-consuming, challenging and captivating.
"Working" a jigsaw puzzle and conducting genealogy research are similar in the required time, evaluation, analysis and discernment used during both activities. While jigsaw puzzle work and genealogy research are not precise equivalents, the evaluation and analytic process for each is comparable in several ways, and reminds us how diligence is rewarded in producing valid results.
- A comprehensive puzzle image represents a guide to follow toward completion. The genealogy research process lacks the one comprehensive guide and involves clues and leads for numerous family branches to assist us in creating a comprehensive result or image. In research, we have guideposts along the way to channel our efforts along relevant paths. In this respect, genealogy research includes images or comprehensive guides, similar in theory to the completed picture used by jigsaw puzzle workers.
- In both endeavors, we may "freelance", disregarding any guides as we embark on solving the jigsaw or genealogy puzzle. Experience proves this option is more time-consuming, frustrating and counter-productive when in either activity.
- Some clues to solution are relatively straightforward as in following the shape and coloring of edge-line puzzle pieces, or identifying evidence that directly relates to and includes documented sources for our compiled family records.
- Numerous other puzzle pieces or data require evaluation and analysis of the current comprehensive work and possible solutions or clues, and developing tactical or strategic steps toward continued puzzle completion or relevant research planning to find and validate additional genealogical family data.
Common requirements with jigsaw and research processes are patience, perseverance and objective discernment. Some pieces or research clues prove to be valid "fits" to the puzzle. Even more pieces or research clues require analysis and "trial runs" to determine the validity of placement.
Although genealogy research activity can be ongoing, the satisfaction of identifying a new family branch or significant source records to validate information is certainly equivalent with fulfillment felt by those who successfully complete complicated jigsaw puzzles. The time commitment, focus and analysis are well-placed elements for puzzle workers, whether jigsaw or genealogy.

Biographer's Lecture Saturday On Gram Parsons Promises Musical Bonus
Guests will hear a live recording of Gram Parsons and the Shilosat that building.
Published: Wednesday, February 13, 2013 at 9:32 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, February 13, 2013 at 9:32 p.m.
It has been a long time since anyone has had the chance to hear Gram Parsons perform in Winter Haven, the city where he spent his youth.
WHAT: Bob Kealing lecture and book signing followed by tour of former Derry Down building.
WHERE: Winter Haven Public Library, 325 Ave. A NW, Winter Haven.
WHEN: 3 p.m. Saturday.
TICKETS: Free.
CONTACT: 863-291-5880 or www.whpl.mywinterhaven.com.
Parsons, who died in 1973 at age 26, will make a musical appearance of sorts Saturday as part of a presentation by Bob Kealing, author of the book "Calling Me Home: Gram Parsons and the Roots of Country Rock."
Kealing will hold a lecture and book signing at 3 p.m. at the Winter Haven Public Library. Following that event, the audience will be invited to walk a short distance to the building that once housed a teen club where Parsons' early folk band, the Shilos, regularly performed.
Those who make the trek will hear a live recording of Parsons and the Shilos performing at that building, then called the Derry Down, in 1964. Kealing said former Winter Haven resident Jim Carlton, who briefly played with Parsons in a band called the Legends, taped several songs from a live radio broadcast on a reel-to-reel recorder.
"What I want to do is talk about how aspiring musicians and entertainers were able to benefit from what I call the youth center circuit," Kealing said. "There were youth centers all across the peninsula in the early '60s, and these kids who weren't even old enough to drive, like Gram, had their own touring bands and were able to build a regional following and perform live and get paid to do so because of this youth center circuit."
Along with Parsons, often credited with spawning the country-rock genre, the area produced such well-known musicians as Jim Stafford, Bobby Braddock and Les Dudek.
Kealing, a reporter for an Orlando TV station, said he hopes the event will prompt efforts to preserve the Derry Down building, now being used as a warehouse. Kealing led a successful drive in the 1990s to preserve an Orlando house where author Jack Kerouac once lived.
"I'm a guy who feels the vibration of history, and I think it's going to be very special to hear a young Gram who would have just turned 18 when this recording was made," Kealing said.
Despite his age, Parsons by that point had already played the New York City folk scene and gotten the attention of Albert Grossman, famed as the manager of Bob Dylan, Kealing said.
Admission to both events Saturday is free. Kealing will be selling copies of his book, published last fall by University Press of Florida.
