President Barack Obama passed a key test Monday night in case anybody is worried that he is the Antichrist. Speaking at a campaign fundraiser at the House of Blues in Los Angeles, Obama was interrupted by a man identified as David Serrano who repeatedly yelled that "Jesus is God." As Serrano was being physically removed by Secret Service agents, he accused Obama of being the Antichrist. That figure […]
American culture is circling the drain faster and faster, but most of us are too caught up in the frenetic pace of our lives to notice the dramatic changes that have sent our country spinning out of control, says New York Times best-selling author Dr. David Jeremiah.
"We live in a 'cynical age of situational ethics, when atheists are shaking their fists at God, Jesus is the butt of crude jokes, the Bible is treated no better than a coffee table book of trite proverbs, and 'war' and 'marriage' are being redefined daily," says the host of the Turning Point radio program and senior pastor of California's Shadow Mountain Community Church.
"Toto, we're not in America anymore," says Dr. Jeremiah, only half-jokingly. "America today is not the America it was."
This has been so disorienting, he explains, because "America's departure from God's standard has occurred so slowly that many of us do not realize just how far we've drifted."
In a new book I Never Thought I'd See the Day! Culture at the Crossroads, Dr. Jeremiah examines the dramatic cultural and social changes of the recent years from a biblical perspective.
"There is a hunger for answers," he says. "Many, many Christians across the country and around the world have suffered. They want answers."
In his book, Dr. Jeremiah addressed nine issues, all of which he believes have significant implications for America and the church. He asks, for example: "Who thought we would ever see the day when atheists would be angry?
"Atheists have become intolerant and vocal, railing against God with fanatical zeal," he says — and shows how the movement has abandoned rational thought and resorted to toxic vitriol and groundless accusations.
"Who thought we would ever see the day when Christians wouldn't know they were in a war?" he asks. It's a spiritual war!
"The spiritual battle against Satan continues, but Christians cannot hope to achieve victory in war of which they are unaware," writes Dr. Jeremiah brings his knowledge of Scripture and military strategy to bear with the hope that Christians everywhere will heed his warning and arm themselves.
"Who thought we would ever see the day when Jesus would be so profaned?" he asks. "When Jesus is featured in profane ways on television shows like South Park, He is reduced from His biblical stature of divine and holy to a cultural characterization of crude and common."
Dr. Jeremiah says that we are personally obligated to limit what we approve, what we call entertainment, what we say and think, and what we tolerate.
"Who thought we would ever see the day when marriage would be obsolete?" he asks — cautioning that the degradation of this most basic social building block threatens the stability of society as a whole.
Other questions he examines: "Who thought we would ever see the day morality would be in freefall? When the Bible would be marginalized When the church would be irrelevant?"
A community's churches used to be considered a source of life and light, their light has grown increasingly dim.
The changes in America's culture during recent decades have made us long for a simpler time, he notes.
Disturbing as the reality of America's descent may be, Dr. Jeremiah remains optimistic — not about man's ability to solve these dilemmas, but rather, about God.
"I do not mean that I expect God to swoop down and return America to the good old days. I don't think that's biblically realistic," he says. "So what is there to be optimistic about? I am optimistic about God's ability to transform us–to raise us higher as the world sinks lower.
"The only solution is to follow a different path from that of the disintegrating world around us."

Global Readiness and International Programs
In fulfilling its mission in instruction, research and scholarship, and public service, the University of North Carolina recognizes the challenges of the rapidly changing, knowledge-based global economy and environment of the 21st century. With America's destiny increasingly being shaped by common global concerns and the interdependence of nations and peoples throughout the world, the University affirms its responsibility:
- To provide its students with the knowledge, skills, and experiences to become informed and productive citizens of the state, the nation, and the world, through interactive courses in language, culture and economics, through increased student exchange, through enhanced virtual experiences and study abroad.
- To bring its educational, research and public service resources to bear in addressing current and future global concerns through faculty exchange, collaborative research and other means.
- To bring in top students from throughout the world to learn here. Some students will stay and become key knowledge workers and entrepreneurs here; others will return to help their home countries and form future partnerships with North Carolina.
The UNC Board of Governors first adopted internationalization as a strategy in 2002. Its goal is to promote an international perspective throughout the University to prepare citizens to become leaders in a multi-ethnic and global society.
In December 2007, a major finding of the University of North Carolina Tomorrow Commission report confirmed that Global Readiness is vital to the future of the University and the state and recommended that UNC increase partnership, programs and preparedness of graduates to compete in the global economy.
The 2013 strategic plan for UNC, "Our Time, Our Future" encourages continued international engagement efforts, with a particular priority on further developing partnerships in China, India, Brazil, Mexico and in the continent of Africa.
UNC seeks funding to support this expanded work on a system level and through strategic investments in promising campus-based programs with the ability to scale.
Each campus has a unit dedicated to the development and support of international activities. UNC General Administration provides coordination and support for University international programs.

For the sake of brief entries, I am not footnoting the facts in this ongoing memorial. Sources have been noted either in other blog posts or in my family history books.
1 October 1721 Jean Weir was baptized in West Calder parish, Midlothian, Scotland, her father named as James Weir. Her mother's name was not recorded, as was the custom of some clerks in some parish registers of the era. This is the earliest date I have for an ancestor and it's very tentative at that. The likely ancestral connection seems to be that a Jean Weir was later recorded as the mother of Thomas Dougall baptized in 1755 in the same place, wife of a John Dougall (their marriage not located). Thomas can be more confidently placed as the father of my Canadian emigrant ancestor John Dougall (1781-1867). The shadowy, elusive Jean is probably my paternal 4th great-grandmother.
4 October 1960 Hector Fraser Dougall died near Kenora, Ontario, on a drive from Port Arthur (Thunder Bay) to Winnipeg. He was 64 years old. He left a family he started later in life and I regret never knowing him as a younger man. I wrote about some of his prior life here. Much more detail about his POW experience will be featured in an upcoming book, Faces of Holzminden (www.facesofholzminden.com). HFD was my father.
5 October 1884 [Old Style] Victor Carl Freiberg was born on Koneni farm, Kastrane, Marzingshof estate, Riga District, Latvia. His name was recorded in the Mālpils Lutheran parish register as Victor Karls Freibergs at his baptism two months later. Although the Russian Empire (including Latvia at the time) followed the Julian calendar until well after his birth and also after his emigration to Canada, I believe his birthday was celebrated or remembered as 17 October 1884. Victor was my maternal grandfather.
9 October 1920 Latvia-born Victor Freibergs officially became a Canadian citizen according to documents in Library and Archives Canada's Russian Consular files. After emigrating in 1906, he spent time in northern Ontario towns, Blind River and Port Arthur. He was settled permanently in Port Arthur when he became naturalized. In those days it seems his wife would also have become a citizen, by default of marriage.
19 October 1908 Marija Jurikas, single woman, arrived at Quebec from Liverpool on the ship SS Dominion. The ship's manifest recorded her as age 32, a domestic, born in Switzerland. Clearly there was inadvertent confusion between her place of birth and her previous country of residence. Not so inadvertent was the slicing of four years off her age! Latvian ex-pats, including her brothers in Canada, were keen to see her stop flitting around and be properly married off, which happened four years later. There's more about her here. Marija was my grandmother.
27 October 1868 [Old Style] Ivan Georgiyev Jurikas of Krumin on the Ladenhof estate married Jekaterina Feodorova Tukkum of Jurin on the Roperbeck estate—in Livland, Latvia. Because the service was in the Russian Orthodox church at Lemsal, the entry conforms to that style. So, the Latvian equivalents of the Russian/German mixture (with excuses for my spelling, tense and diacritical failures) are Janis son of Juris Jurikas, Krūmini, Lade; Katrina daughter of Feodor Tukums, Jurin, Roperbecki; Livland is Livonija; Lemsal is Limbaži. This couple were my maternal great-grandparents.

REDMOND, Wash. -- In a dimly lit function room on the Microsoft campus 40 teams of coders are spending the week writing modern applications that run on Windows 8 and Windows Phone 8 devices, all of them assured of winning a prize.
Officially, the winners take home $2,500 for the best application in three categories, but the real goal is learning to write the applications under the watchful eyes of Microsoft mentors who are guiding them through the subtleties of producing apps that look good, run well on the new operating systems and that take advantage of the touch features the operating systems cater to.
NEWS: Windows Phone 8 having trouble attracting developers
RELATED: First look: Windows 8 Surface RT
The hackathon is also geared toward writing apps for Azure, Microsoft's cloud-based platform service. All of the applications are being written with the help of Visual Studio development platform.
"How do I get unstuck?" is the question contestants are trying to get answered as they meet with their mentors, Microsoft employees who have been working with the platform for months, says Dan Fernancez, senior director of development and platform evangelism.
For Vesa Vainio of Finland, that means learning how to store photos in Azure for access by members of Facebook. The app he's working on, called Share My Photos, will let Facebook users share photos. That's something Facebook supports, but the app has a twist.
"They can easily share photos with friends of their choosing and not give ownership of the photos to Facebook itself," says Vainio, who works for a joint venture of IT services firm Tieto and the Finnish government writing software for the Finnish tax service.
During the second day of the competition, he was still working on the design of the application, but plans to start coding today with the intent to meet the deadline tomorrow night.
Participants aren't just hacking all week; they're attending Microsoft's Build 2012 conference for developers. So they have to find a balance between attending educational sessions they choose from among the hundreds available and competing in the hackathon.
The focus of the event is to bring developers up to speed writing apps for Windows 8, Windows Phone 8 and Azure. The big perceived shortcoming of the new platforms and devices that support them is there aren't enough applications in the new Windows store to make buying them a compelling choice for consumers.
Over the past two months the number of apps in the store has grown from about 1,000 to about 10,000, according to the Web site winappupdate.com, which has written code to count them. And still more than 85% of the apps are free, which doesn't give developers much payback.
That doesn't deter Erik Zettersten, a freelance coder from Reston, Va., who has done work for the Food Network. He calls the coding super easy compared to writing for Linux and Unix, mainly because the development tools and the coding languages have been written to complement each other better than tools he's worked with for other languages. Windows 8 and Phone 8 coding can be done in JavaScript, HTML5, C++, C# and Visual Basic.
His application is called Channels and is written for developers. It's a realtime Internet chat application that can be snapped to one side of a Windows 8 screen and where users can post programming questions to other developers worldwide. Anyone with the app can post answers.
So far he's picked his mentor's brain for information about Web sockets, something he needs for the app but hasn't worked with much before in Microsoft applications. He's also hoping there's an application template that is part of Visual Studio that he doesn't know about but can tap to make the project go faster.
Regardless of whether he finishes in the money for the hackathon, he regards the competition as time well spent. "Just for the atmosphere alone - it's full of smart people so I can get answers real quickly," Zettersten says.

Field trip in First Class
I'm pretty sure that the first class service on today's LH440 from Frankfurt to Houston was not typical. With eight people hanging out in two of the seats upstairs at one point it was much more reminiscent of a field trip than a flight. Even with the extra bodies up there is was a quite fun and pleasant experience.
As we sat around sharing travel stories and canapés it was an opportunity to truly enjoy some of the best that air travel has to offer. At triple the normal capacity seated in the first class beds, it was still quite a bit more comfortable than my assigned seat in the economy cabin. And the food and beverage choices were definitely a few steps above.
There was plenty of champagne to be had, as well as a few bottles of Baileys consumed, several beers and a glass or two of Johnnie Walker Blue, and that was just during the bit of the flight that I was invited up to visit.
The food spread was quite impressive, too. From finger sandwiches to fresh fruit to a quite impressive caviar presentation, everything I saw was top notch.
Oh, and some fun with the amenity kits, too:
It really did seem much more like summer camp or a field trip than a 10 hour flight across the Atlantic.

Two examples:
My tai chi instructor would take one look at my movement and identify where I was holding stress. It usually manifested in my right shoulder. My movement was stiff and restricted. At work, I notice the tension in my right shoulder when I sit at my desk. I relax my shoulder and step away from my desk for a few minutes.
In the mid 1990's, a teenage boy was a student at the dojo. I was a new class instructor and I freely admit…he made me nervous. I was concerned he would get hurt. His movement was extremely tense and stiff. I cringed during breakfall practice. His whole body was rigid and he would fall to the mat like a plank of wood. I have never seen anything like it before or since. If I close my eyes, I can still visualize him falling on the mat. I even remember the sound he made as he smashed into the mat. Splat! Despite instruction and guidance from a group of instructors, he never was able to relax and perform a proper breakfall.
Relaxing the body and mind are important components of martial arts training. What advice would you give a new student who is tense and needs to relax their movements? How did you learn to relax?

I love a good political cartoon and I'm sure that they aren't easy to write, but when you have to label everything in your cartoon then maybe you should re-think the joke. Unless, the joke involves a label maker, in which case, good job!
Updates: Back to normal
"Updates, back to normal." said a spokesman for Daily Doodle founder Jeff Morin. Recently the updates on Doodlecomic.com have been anything but daily, as the title of the comic would suggest. In a recent post on Doodlecomic.com it was said that this was due to the busy schedule of founder Jeff Morin. "There was just hardly any time for it with all that was going on." He said in an interview. But rumors have been swirling around the blog-o-sphere that he has been vacationing in the Hamptons on the company's dime. "These allegations are just not true" said a spokesman for the cartoonist "I can assure you that Jeff takes The Daily Doodle very seriously and wants nothing more than to maintain a consistent update schedule."
Regardless of what the reasons were. Things are back to normal at the popular webcomic site. For the time being at least.Posted 20:35

Conn.'s Malloy to meet with new Metro-North chief
HARTFORD (AP) -- Gov. Dannel P. Malloy is scheduled to meet privately Monday with the new president of Metro-North Railroad.
The Connecticut Democrat, who's been critical of the commuter railroad in recent months, has said he's was looking forward to working with Joseph Giulietti, a former executive director of the South Florida Regional Transportation Authority.
"I have indicated that I would like him to come here, that there are substantial issues that need to be discussed with respect to the operation of the rail line in our state," Malloy said last month after Giulietti was tapped for the job.
Giulietti is replacing Howard Permut, who has served as the head of Metro-North Railroad since 2008.
Malloy has expressed repeated frustration with a series of problems that have dogged the railroad over the past year. In December, after a derailment in New York City that killed four passengers, Malloy called on the railroad to provide an action plan addressing safety issues on the system. Malloy also expressed concerns about the railroad's operations following a derailment in Bridgeport last May, which left more than 70 people injured.
Last month, Malloy said he was outraged over a power outage that disrupted service along the New Haven Line, which has about 132,000 daily customers.
State lawmakers also want to talk with Giulietti. This month, Democratic and Republican leaders of the General Assembly's Transportation Committee asked Giulietti and Thomas F. Prendergast, the chairman and CEO of the Metropolitan Transportation Authority, to appear before the panel and review steps being taken to improve safety and operations.

Marlena says: Soap fans everywhere are cautiously optimistic that, against all odds, there's been a hopeful turn in the heretofore bleak fortunes of soap opera. Ratings are strong and even improving for the four network soaps that survived the death watch of the past few years, and Prospect Park is said to be moving full steam ahead to bring two of the casualties back from the dead.
Is it too soon to rejoice? Skeptic that I am, I'm not ready to shoot off fireworks at my country retreat just yet. But I've has detected one tiny, tiny bit of anecdotal evidence that audience-building may, indeed, be possible: My recently retired husband Moose, long impervious to the many charms of soap opera that have inundated him daily for so many years, has been espied of late … actually watching General Hospital.

So, this is a "life" post! Last night I went to the fair with a friend and his little girl. I haven't been to the fair since I was a junior in high school - 11 years ago.
At first I was concerned that I wouldn't get to go due to a sudden rain storm, but we waited for about 15 minutes and it stopped...though my shoes DID get muddy and almost got stuck on the walk in. We rode lots of the kiddie rides first...horses, bees, bears, the fun house X 5 (a slide!). Our fun was stopped, though, when K was 1/2 inch too short for the caterpillar (really, come on!). She was quite disappointed, so we did the fun house one more time and then went for food.
My food memories from the fair are free biscuits and elephant ears. As you can imagine, the choices were endless - Burgers, pizza, hotdogs, corndogs (even chocolate dipped...ew?), nachos, gyros, sushi (?), roasted corn, Saratoga chips (apparently fresh cut potato chips loaded with chili and cheese), fried candy bars, funnel cakes, fish, chicken strips, cotton candy, etc. There was even a donut burger - Krispie Kreme donuts as the bun with a big ole burger in between - WOW!
We ended up getting chicken on a stick and fish from Penn's (local fish place). On the way back to see the circus (that ended up NOT happening due to the equipment being wet - boo!) and ride the big yellow slide (also closed due to wetness - BOO!) I got my elephant ear. Oh, the goodness. It's basically fried dough with cinnamon sugar on it - I think it' an un-funneled funnel cake!
Then we rode the ferris wheel, got K some "ice" (sno cone), rode the pony, and trecked back through the mud to the car. It was a great night!

Fair sushi is probably made out of twinkies and fruit roll-ups (and then deep-fried!)

Aww so much fun! I love doing "life" things like that...makes the day that much better.

Solitary Diner - Yeah, wasn't so sure about that one.

Traveling Hair Salon in Bryanston before I go into the points to help you choose your hairdresser, I should first outline the definition of what is a mobile hairdresser? A Local Mobile Hairdresser is a hairdresser who usually works for his or herself visiting clients at their homes or place of work, or any other agreed venue and does not operate from a fixed hair salon or beauty shop.
Choosing a Mobile Hairdresser - 4 Simple Tips to Help You Choose The Best
1.When to consider using a mobile hairdresser. The services of a mobile hairstylist may often be required to be used at a home for a wedding when it may often be inconvenient for the bride to travel to a hair or beauty salon to have her hair and her make-up done, requiring her then to travel back to her home to put on her wedding gown. Instead, the hairdresser will travel to the bride's home in order to style the bride's hair for her special day. A Mobile Hairdresser hairstylist is often in demand for Care homes, hospitals, prisons, the armed forces, and in many other situations where individual attention is required.
Not All Dogs Benefit From A Summer Haircut or Shave Down
4. Always Use a qualified hairdresser. As with Salon hairdressers, your mobile hairdresser should hold formal hairdressing qualifications. The UK national Vocational Qualification in Hairdressing (NVQ) is the only recognized qualification system, and more than 60% of mobile hairstylists are now trained to this standard. They should also hold professional indemnity insurance.
Your mobile hairdresser should be happy and prepared to recommend the perfect hairdos and often make-up to accentuate and compliment the individual looks of the customer, and offer suggestions on what hairstyle or make up should best suit the client.

|The Glass Bead Game
Hermann Hesse
Final novel by Hermann Hesse, published in two volumes in 1943 in German as Das Glasperlenspiel, and sometimes translated as Magister Ludi. The book is an intricate bildungsroman about humanity's eternal quest for enlightenment and for synthesis of the intellectual and the participatory life. Set in the 23rd century, the novel purports to be a biography of Josef Knecht ("servant" in German), who has been reared in Castalia, the remote place his society has provided for the intellectual elite to grow and flourish. Since childhood, Knecht has been consumed with mastering the Glass Bead Game, which requires a synthesis of aesthetics and scientific arts, such as mathematics, music, logic, and philosophy. This he achieves in adulthood, becoming a Magister Ludi (Master of the Game). Synopsis: Setting his story in the distant, post-Holocaust future, Hesse tells of an elite cult of intellectuals occupying themselves with an elaborate game that employs all the cultural and scientific knowledge of the ages. The most imaginative and prophetic of Hesse's works. A Masterpiece! QUALITY PAPERBACK EDITION

|THE LAW OF THE COSMOS. THE DIVINE HARMONY ACCORDING TO PLATO'S REPUBLIC – TIMAEUS: The Platonic Riddle Of Numbers Newly Solved And Illustrated.
Eberhard Wortmann. Translated by Ariel Godwin. Edited by Joscelyn Godwin.
German Edition 1965, Translation Society Edition 2008. 135 Pages, Including 80 Geometric Plates and 12 FULL COLOR PLATES. This is the 3rd book in the Sacred Science Translation Society series. This book is One of the Ten Greatest Cosmological Masterpieces Ever Written! Eberhard Wortmann is the only know modern Magister Ludi to have corresponded with Hermann Hesse, who in appreciation of his brilliant work called him a master "Glass Bead Game Player." The Sacred Science Institute worked in conjunction with Wortmann's family to produce this English translation of his Masterpiece, and will continue to translate his 3 further works, bringing his life work into English for the fist time. Wortmann's works contain hundreds of the most sophisticated diagrams on Sacred Geometry, Pythagorean and Platonic Number Theory, Harmonics and Astronomy ever seen, as well as one of the most intricate elaborations of Universal Order and Cosmic Law known to man. The vast and synthetic thinking process presented in these works inspired a correspondence between Hesse and Wortmann discussing the GBG. "Here it should be mentioned that the Platonic riddle of numbers are actually a question of logical games of thought, "Glass Bead Games", as Hermann Hesse, the great writer and man, had named this kind of mental business."

|THE ARCHEOMETER: Key To All The Religions & Sciences of Antiquity. Synthetic Reformation of All Contemporary Arts
By Marquis Saint-Yves D'Alveydre.
Translated by Ariel Godwin.
Edited & Introduced by Joscelyn Godwin.
French Edition 1911, Translation Society Edition 2008. 500 Pages, Accompanied by 5 Color Plates, 10 Portraits, & 100 Figures & Tables. This fourth translation in the Sacred Science Translation Society series represents one of the most highly respected elaborations of the universal system, by one of the most respected esotericists of the 19th century. Our volume includes the technical source text, along with a further 70 page elaboration and description by another of St. Yves associates published in the French magazine La Gnose from 1909-1912. It also includes another half dozen scholarly articles published throughout the last century on St. Yves and his work. This book is another of the Greatest Cosmological Masterpieces Ever Written! From the Intro: What is the Archeometer? The Archeometer is the instrument used by the Ancients for the formation of the esoteric myths of all religions. It is the canon of ancient Art in its various architectural, musical, poetic, and theogonic manifestations. It is the Heaven that speaks: every star, every constellation becomes a letter or a phrase, or a divine name lighting the ancient traditions of all peoples with a new day. Saint-Yves applied Archeometric keys to a new translation of the Genesis of Moses, in a work that is sadly little known: The Theogony of the Patriarchs. Together with the Vulgate, Fabre d'Olivet's translation, and other earlier attempts, this new adaptation of the words of Moses in Saint-Yves's rhythmic prose is of greatest interest to the members of all the Churches of Christianity, pastoral or secular. Over time, Saint-Yves, initiated directly by the Hindu Brahmans, wrote his Mission of India, in which the question of the "Mahatma" is resolved definitively and clearly. His "friends" have reverently reprinted this work, of which all but one example had been destroyed. Thus, here is a subject of study for future critics, or rather, many subjects, and we do not know what posterity will find most striking: the author's immense erudition, his style as personal as it is brilliant, or the exalted revelations of the initiate and historian. Dr. G. Encausse, aka "Papus." CONTENTS: TRUE WISDOM - BOOK I. INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF THE ARCHEOMETER Dedication Foreword PART I. Man's Wisdom and Paganism CHAPTER 1.

|The Exhibit Hall - Oh the things you'll see!
Day 2 began with a pretty big challenge. There was a 2 session long class on BCG Certification and while I really wanted to go there were other classes that I wanted to go to as well. Since I was going to many of the other BCG Skill-Building classes I didn't choose this one.
8am - "A Professional Researcher's Tips and Tricks to the Family History Library Catalog" presented by Daniel S. Poffenberger, AG - The new search is about 1/3 to 1/2 complete, but the hope is that full implementation will happen in 3-4 months. FamilySearch assures everyone that the old search will not be taken away until the new search is as good or better. Bottom line with many of the tips and tricks: don't just search under one of the search topics. Try using as little information as possible and then add more to narrow the search down if you get too many hits. Also the developers want your feedback! They really are looking to get this right, so make sure you provide feedback if you see something you like or if there is something that doesn't seem to work right. How often do you hear that!?!
9:30am - "Researching Eighteenth-Century Germans" presented by John T. Humphrey, CG - I was disappointed in this class. It's not that John Humphrey wasn't a good speaker. He was fine. The title of his lecture was not. The assumption I made was that I would be hearing about researching in Germany. It wasn't. I could have found something salvageable if maybe he spoke about 18th century Germans in the United States...not so much. So what was the class about. Pretty much researching your 18th German ancestors that either were in Pennsylvania or started out there. There were the occasional references to Germans moving elsewhere, but that was it. Not even an acknowledgement that they may have come to the country to go straight for another state, oh I don't know, maybe...WISCONSIN! I don't know that the syllabus stated that the subject would be so narrow, but I will be checking once I finally get back home tomorrow and unpack it. Bottom line...never assume...
11am - "German Territories and Maps: You Can't Do Research Without Them" presented by F. Warren Bittner, CG - OH MY GOODNESS!!!! He more than made up for the 9:30 class! I could not believe the things he found! A floor plan for an ancestor's house. Some great dirt on an ancestor too that had to fight for 10 years before he was permitted to marry the woman he loved (and three kids illegitimate in the meantime). There are more than just vital and church records to researching in Germany. Remember that there were many and varied agencies/authorities that generated records and you need to check them! Even more important...you need to know where the city/village is located in Germany and where it was during the time you are researching. If you remember even a little of your German history, you'll remember that it's borders were more fluid than the faucet in the bathroom.
2:30pm - What Exactly is a 'Reasonably Exhaustive Search'?" presented by Laura Murphy DeGrazia, CG - a very good lecture that certainly showed me that I may need to dig deeper in some of my ancestors or risk linking wrong people to my tree. You need to check all potentially relevant sources (and as close to the original source document as possible) and resolve any conflicts that arise in that search. You need to use a wide variety of sources (not just vital records, census records, etc) and you also need to consider the reliability of each source. Want to know more? I did. I grabbed the BCG's "Standards Manual" as soon as I could get to the exhibit hall!
4pm - "In the Wilderness and On the Battlefields With Your Civil War Ancestor" presented by Sharon Tate Moody, CG - I wasn't going to go to this lecture, but the others scheduled for this slot either seemed to basic or to regionally specific, so I tagged along with Jenn Woods to this class. If nothing else, I'm a student of history. Jenn finds it incredible that I don't have any direct line ancestors that served in the Civil War. I agree with her on that, but I haven't found them yet. I promised I would perform my "reasonably exhaustive search" on that when I got back home. The class was excellent. Sharon Tate Moody did an excellent job illustrating how attitudes and circumstances changed as the war progressed. She urged that we look into the unit our ancestors were assigned to in order to put some "meat on the bones" and see what battles they fought in and what life was like for them in those units. It certainly brings those ancestors to life. Oh where, oh where are my Civil War ancestors!
That's Day 2 minus any purchases I got in the exhibit hall. I'll be arriving home Monday afternoon and hopefully the Cub Scout party won't prevent me from blogging tomorrow night, but no promises. I will get Day 3 out to everyone as soon as possible!

14 July, 2010
Boogie Down Bronx!This was a HUGE night for me on so many levels. For one, U2 was playing in the Bronx, where I grew up and never in a million years thought I'd get to see U2 play. The first night (August 29th) I didn't have tickets but listened to the concert from my terrace, 24 stories up and six blocks away. When this night came, I was BURSTING with excitement! My two friends and I had nosebleed seats and as we approached the stadium I started scanning the ground for a mislaid ticket. My friends thought I was crazy, but guess what? I found a stray floor seat ticket. Terrible for whoever dropped it, but AMAZING for me! I made my way up to the front of the crowd saw my boys up close. I cried, it was so beautiful and amazing. The icing on the cake? After the show we (stalkerishly) went to the Righa Royal Hotel where the band was staying (I was 17! Cut me some slack) and when Bono arrived, not only did he sign the baseball cap I'd purchased at the show, but he looked at me, said "you're beautiful!" and added a heart to it. Yeah, 18 years later, that's still one of the highlights of my life!!
