Kim Cattrall's grandfather disappeared 70 years ago in Depression-era Liverpool, England. On tonight's episode of Who Do You Think You Are? Kim travels to England to discover the reasons behind his disappearance, which still haunts Kim's mother and aunts decades later.
Family historians take note: Kim starts her journey with little more than her grandfather's name. By the end, she connects with new family members and unravels the details of her grandfather's life.
The show, sponsored by Ancestry.com, airs tonight at 8/7c on NBC. Can't wait? Watch a preview at http://www.nbc.com/who-do-you-think-you-are/.

The Consular Reports of Marriage, 1910–1949, database that went live this month is a fun one if you happen to have an ancestor among the certificates and correspondence contained in the files. I say these reports are fun because, while there's a story behind any record, these stories come with the extra flair of a foreign locale…and a wedding.
These records document overseas marriages in which at least one party was an American citizen. They were created by American embassies and consulates and include both certificates documenting and correspondence regarding marriages that people were trying to arrange or that had taken place.
Why China?
That's all pretty straightforward. Now on to the story part. Here is the certificate for Elaine Strang and Frederick Donaldson, who married on 27 July 1916.
Ms. Strang, of Dowagiac, Michigan, and Mr. Donaldson of Oberlin, Ohio, were joined in matrimony by Reverend Lewis Hodous, whose authority comes via "the laws of the State of Ohio." The bride and groom's hometowns are, maybe, 250 miles apart. So what are they all doing in Foochow, China? And did they bring their own minister along?
On a Mission
My first thought: a Wolverine marrying a Buckeye might be reason enough to tie the knot on neutral ground far from home.
Google said otherwise. Mrs. Elaine Strang Donaldson is listed in the Annual Report of the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions amongst the missionaries in the Foochow Mission. Here's her 1912 passport application, which tells us she's a teacher and plans on returning to the States within seven years:
The M.A.C Record (Michigan Agricultural College) of 23 May 1916 reported Fred Donaldson's leaving to take up his own post in China—and marry Miss Strang, whose father was an M.A.C. alum.
The November 1916 issue of Mission Studies "Published monthly by the Woman's Board of Missions of the Interior of the Congregational Church" even provides details of the wedding:
Coming Home
By 1930, the Donaldsons were back in the States, now with a family in tow.
Working back a step, we find the Donaldsons leaving Hong Kong aboard the S.S. President Grant, sailing via Yokohama, Japan, and arriving in Los Angeles in April 1927, on their way to a new home in Massachusetts.
A change of calling? A new chapter in any event. And if you have missionaries, merchants, or mercenaries in your family tree who traveled abroad, a look at the Consular Reports of Marriages could be the first page in your own foreign family love story.

In a blog post on February 7th, I wrote about how to navigate in the pedigree view on the People workspace. This week we'll talk about to use the family group view. The family group view displays a single-family unit—a couple, their parents, and their children. In this view you can add spouses and children and also navigate through your tree.
Adding a Spouse
To add a spouse for an individual, click the Add Spouse link (see fig. 1). Then enter the spouse's name and click OK.
You'll notice that the family group view displays only one spouse at a time. If an individual has multiple spouses, you can display the other spouse in the family group view by clicking the spouse button and choosing the individual from the drop-down list (fig. 2). Note: You can also add additional spouses using this drop-down list.
Adding a Child
To add a child for the couple, click the Add Child link (fig. 3). Then enter the child's name and click OK.
Above the list of children, you'll see three buttons (fig. 4). You can use these to change the order in which children are displayed.
To change the sort order of a specific child, select the child in the family group view; then, click the up or down arrow buttons until they appear in the desired order. To sort children by birth order, simply click the Sort children by birth button. If you haven't entered a birth date for a child,
Navigating in the Family Group View
You can also use the family group view to navigate through your tree. If you click the "parent" button above an individual (fig. 5) the family group view changes to display these individuals in the primary position.
You can also click the arrow button to the left of a child's name (fig. 6) to display him or her in the primary position of the family group view.

Spoiler Alert: If you don't already know what happened during Rosie O'Donnell's
episode of "Who Do You Think You Are?" you are about to find out.
Rosie O'Donnell often asked her grandmother about a specific photo hanging in her
house, but her grandmother was tight lipped about the woman. O'Donnell knew she was
somehow related to her, but didn't know much beyond that. So she began her "Who Do
You Think You Are?" journey by researching the mystery woman.
She starts looking in the 1900 census, finding her great-grandparents Michael and
Ellen Murtha. The census indicates Michael was born in French Canada and his parents
were born in Ireland. O'Donnell steps back father to the 1880, but shows Michael living
in Brooklyn with a different woman — his first wife Anna.
This leads O'Donnell to Manhattan, where she finds the death certificate for Anna
Murtaugh, a variation of the Murtha surname. The cause of death is listed as an explosion
of an oil lamp. O'Donnell searches neighborhood newspapers for write-ups about the
incident, discovering Anna was holding her infant daughter during the explosion.
Catholic church baptismal records revealed Anna's daughter to be Elizabeth Murtha,
who lived through the accident and eventually had many children and grandchildren.
Tracing the line forward, O'Donnell is reunited with Elizabeth's grandchildren, her
second cousins. They confirm that the mysterious photo is Elizabeth's mother Anna.
After solving that mystery, she travels to Quebec to search parish records for Anna's
husband and O'Donnell's great-grandfather Michael Murtha, listed as Michael Murtaugh
in baptismal records. Michael's parents are listed as Andrew Murtaugh and Anne Doyle.
O'Donnell searches a local newspaper to find the obituary for Anne, which lists her
birthplace as Kildare, Ireland. For more on searching newspapers, see our Finding
You Family in Old Newspapers on-demand webinar.
O'Donnell then heads to Ireland to find out more about the Murtaughs. Many people
emigrated from Ireland at the height of the potato feminine, and Andrew and Anne were
among them.
Searching Poor Law Union minute books for a mention of the family, O'Donnell discovers
two men sponsored the Murtaughs passage to Canada. The Poor Law Union only provided
assisted immigration for severely impoverished families during the feminine. To qualify
for assisted immigration, a family would have to live in a work house for at least
a year. For more on tracing your Irish roots, see our Irish
heritage research guide.
"WDYTYA" airs Fridays at 8pm EST on NBC. Check the Genealogy Insider blog for a brief
recap of each episode, and post a comment to be entered to win in our Discover
Who You Are sweepstakes!

In this edition of my guest post for the Genealogy Insider I'm reporting from the
Who Do You Think You Are? Live event in London, England, which runs Friday Feb 25
through Sunday Feb 27, 2011.
While I could spend time telling you about the huge booths and displays of the genealogy
giants like Ancestry.uk, FamilySearch, or Find My Past, I think it would miss the
mark on conveying what is truly unique about this particular event. It's the "little
guy" – the local society, volunteer organization and fledgling online start-up – that
fills the vast majority of the exhibit hall where the bulk of the action occurs. Here
are just a few that stood out as I made way up and down the aisles:
Discover Ireland – www.DiscoverIreland.ie
"Genealogy Butler" and Professional Genealogist Helen Kelly sat down with me at the
Discover Ireland booth to talk about the countless number of people that they have
helped trace their Irish ancestors and then make the journey to the homeland. Their
free booklet "Tracing Your Ancestors" in Ireland walks family historians through doing
research on their own in the U.S, heading online to tap into digital records, hiring
professional help as needed, and tips for making the trip and walking the green grass
of Ireland in person. "We have to be quiet sometimes," says Kelly, "…we have to sit
in the landscape and then the stones can speak to us." Kelly made a compelling case
for making the journey "back to the community that nurtured your ancestors." While
many things have changed, you can still experience the accents, landscape and culture
that enveloped your ancestors. Kelly summed it up this way, "We are not just part
of our people, we are also part of our landscape." Stay tuned to my Genealogy Gems
Podcast at www.GenealogyGems.com where
you will hear my entire conversation with this inspirational expert on discovering
Western Front Assocation If
you have an ancestor who served during The Great War, The Western Front Association
may have just the resources and expertise you are looking for. Founded by historian
John Giles in 1980, the association has grown to include thousands of members around
the world. Their Historical Information Officer is available to help with research
questions, and their publications and unique record holdings make them a unique resource
for a focused area of family history research.
As I approached their booth, a nice lady named Nancy welcomed me in and explained
the simple yet vital purpose of the War Memorials Trust: to monitor the condition
of war memorials and to encourage protection and conservation when appropriate. They
also strive to provide expert advice to those involved in war memorial projects across
the UK, to act as the specialist organization for war memorial conversation issues
and to facilitate repair and conservation through grants. I was pleased to see organizations
in attendance that play a vital role in empowering all of us to help preserve our
precious history.
Do you have a bobby in your background? If so, The Metropolitan Police have a resource
for you! The Met Collection encompasses artifacts previously hidden from view. The
permanent public display at the Met Collection heritage centre rotates from the 17,000
items that make up the collection including uniforms, photos, police equipment, and
a vast database of records. You can visit the collection in person at The Annex, Empress
State Building, Empress Approach, Lillie Rd., London SW6 1TR (a 2 minute walk from
the Brompton tube station,) or visit them online at the Friends of the MPHC website
at www.fomphc.org.uk
With such a variety of fascinating topics and experts to learn from, it's no wonder
that over 17,000 people have bought tickets to attend the three-day event. Next week
I'll have a complete wrap up for you on the Who Do You Think You Are? Live event.
To learn more about this yearly phenomenon go to Who
Do You Think You Are? Live
Surname Forum Activity
I am trying to find information on Ann Manley daughter of Jesse James Manley 1900-1970 and Callie Kilpatrick 1907-1974. I believe she was born in Polk Co., Florida. Ann married and had two children. She might have lived in Brockport or Brocton Mass and have been married to a man named Eddie. My family can't remeber her husband's last name so we are running into dead ends.

This week, Al and Marcel in the dev team have spent a fair bit of time making the new website FAST. The release we put live last Thursday was pretty slow – particularly the personalised watch list. But we've made two significant leaps forward over the last week and the second change goes live today.
Fast isn't particularly sexy. As a product manager, it's dangerously easy to overlook crucial things like a website's performance in favour of more glamorous features. Especially when that's often what stakeholders care about. Features are tangible.
But fast is a feature.
Last year, after a week's dabbling in the dark arts of website caching, a top notch dev by the name of Andrew Revell managed to considerably improve the performance of RT's sister site Good Food. And in doing so, increased the number of page views by more than one hundred percent. There are very few new features that could do that for you.
Every so often he would wander by my desk and tap me on the shoulder and say things like: "Fast. It's a feature." And wander off again in a well-deserved smug developer haze. And he's right.
I'm very lucky to be working on Radio Times with not one but two equally talented chaps and a technology partner who have between them turned the new RT from being a bit of a dog on initial inception, to being a bit like the proverbial doodoo off a spade one week later.
Al has optimised the myriad of calls we're making into a much small number. It makes sense to build it first and then tune it up once you can see what's slowing it down. And after a day with his headphones on, you certainly notice the difference.
Marcel has created our "cache tea cosy". Warming the cache means that all of the text, pictures and everything that makes up radiotimes.com are already loaded, ready and waiting for users.
Meanwhile, the guys at Meta Broadcast our technology partner have also been sprinkling fairy dust on the way they are processing the watchlist and that too has since a dramatic change in load speed.
We've only got 150 users at the moment and they've only been using it for a few days, so it's impossible to see the affect on the site's use. But I'm willing to bet that once the new site is properly live, we'll see a dramatic increase in page views on the old site. In the main that will be because of the great new set of features we have developed. But the fact that the site is fast should not be under estimated.

Each week we discuss one familiar halakhic practice and try to show its beauty and meaning. The columns are based on Rabbi Meir's Meaning in Mitzvot on Kitzur Shulchan Arukh by Rabbi Asher Meir Asher Yatzar One of the most frequent blessings is the asher yatzar blessing said after elimination (going to the bathroom). This is also one of the most cryptic blessings, and the Talmud, Rishonim, and Acharonim discussed the wording at length. Let's begin at the beginning: the opening expression "Who formed man with wisdom". What is the significance of this wording? The Tur discusses the blessing in detail, yet omits mention of the opening. The Beit Yosef explains that the Tur felt this expression needs no explanation, "for it is a clear thing that the creation of man is of wondrous wisdom" (Tur and Beit Yosef Orach Chaim 6). Rashi doesn't devote a special entry to this part of the blessing, but he includes it together with the explanation of the ending of the blessing, "Who heals all flesh and does wondrously". The Midrash explains that the "wonder" of man's creation is that the body doesn't spill its content of fluid and air despite the many openings and pores; Rashi adds that this is also an aspect of the wisdom of God's formation (Berakhot 60b). Tosafot, however, cite a different Midrash, on Bereshit, which explains that the order of creation displays Hashem's wisdom. In particular, man was created last so that all of our needs would be available at the time of our formation. The same idea, write Tosafot, is expressed in the Gemara in Sanhedrin which states that man was created last so that he could "enter into the meal right away", that is, our "table" is fully set as we enter the world (Sanhedrin 38a). The central message of the Midrash and of the Gemara seems to be that the wise and prudent order in any creative act is to first create the proper conditions for its success. By contrast, it is foolish to first create something and then start working on ways to make it function. (In similar fashion, Rambam writes that a wise person acquires a livelihood and afterwards starts a family, and a foolish person does the opposite -- Deot 5:11.) In the context of the blessing, the message seems to be that man was created with all of the external means of subsistence prepared for him, and like- wise with all of his internal needs: the human body is not "jury rigged" but on the contrary is designed with all of the equipment needed to thrive. This explanation dovetails well with the comment of the Rema in the Darkhei Moshe on the Tur, who states that the closing of the blessing "Who does wondrously" refers to the wonder of duality: the human soul, which belongs in the world of spirit, is wondrously united with the human body which dwells in the world of matter. Thus the blessing asher yatzar tells the order of creation as follows: First Hashem created all of the external physical needs of the human body. This is, "Who formed man with wisdom". Afterwards, he created the body itself with the ability to take advantage of this raw material, the orifices and hollows needed to absorb the good and excrete the waste. And all this is in order to put all these exterior and interior aspects of our material existence at the service of our spirits. Latest publication developments: The book is completed! Yaakov Feldheim called me on Thursday to tell me that he "is pleased to announced the birth of a new book"... I hope to be able to give TT readers clear directions on how they can obtain a copy - probably I will direct them to the Feldheim website... Rabbi Meir authors a popular weekly on-line Q&A column, "The Jewish Ethicist", which gives Jewish guidance on everyday ethical dilemmas in the workplace. The column is a joint project of the JCT Center for Business Ethics, Jerusalem College of Technology - Machon Lev; and Aish HaTorah. You can see the Jewish Ethicist, and submit your own Qs — www.jewishethicist.com or www.aish.com. [The

Bryan K. Nelson
Sheriff Danny Hickman reports that on Monday, April 30, deputies responded to a call at 105 Sparks Circle in Alpena.
The caller, Lana Savage, reported her boyfriend, Bryan Nelson, age 35, had driven his car into the side of her home and she thought he was inside shooting out the windows. Ms. Savage and her son had locked themselves in the bathroom waiting for law enforcement. Cpl. Nathan Jenkins responded to find a SUV wrecked into the side of the home. A perimeter was set up around the home and Sheriff Hickman's Special Operations Group was called to enter the home and remove the victims. Members of the Special Op's Group were able to remove Ms. Savage and her son from the home. Once inside the home, they found Nelson had fled into the nearby woods.
Nelson came out of the woods a short time later and was arrested and taken to the Boone County Jail. No firearm was found on or with Mr. Nelson. He has been charged with Drinking in Public, Reckless Driving, Driving on a Suspended or Revoked DL, No Proof of Insurance, Failure to Report an Accident and Leaving the scene of an Accident with Property Damage. Bond is $2,220.00.

September 1999
Hi all! I'm recently back from a 20-day England (yes, not even Wales or Scotland) trip.
For this 20-day trip, I was in London 3 times, each for about 2 days or less only. Other than central London, I stayed 2 nights at Wimbledon with an internet friend and went to Richmond twice as my friend, Valerie, works there. Thus, I used their transport system very extensively, from suburban rail to tube to bus (except cab), and went to all the Britrail stations in London.
I do not particularly like London though. Cannot really pinpoint exactly what I do not like or am unimpressed about it, I think it is a bit of everything. I do not like their tube, it is filthy, slow, noisy, expensive etc. I hope I do not sound like a spoilt Singaporean but I do not recall being so put off by the metro of Paris though it's also far from our own subway standard. Perhaps because of its age (over 100 years old?), but I think a developed country deserves better.
I like the National Gallery, especially the audio commentary and it is free! The commentary makes it easier to enjoy the gallery. I was impressed that it covers all paintings, even the small ones. I think that it has the best commentary among Louvre, Uffizi and Musee d'Orsay.
Few people are not impressed with the mummies collection at the British Museum. It can be a fine line between collecting and looting, in a way, that was intellectual piracy. The consolation is perhaps that those treasures are in good hands and the entrance is free.
I attended a Shakespeare play, Anthony and Cleopatra, at the Globe Theatre. It was performed as it was originally intended, with no amplification, open-air, an all-male cast, Elizabethan stage set and costumes, live music etc. It was quite amusing to watch the actors playing female roles. I bought the yard standing ticket, which was cheapest (�5) and actually had the best view, but it was no joke to stand for over three hours!
Went to 2 musicals, "Miss Saigon" and "Whistle Down the Wind". "Miss Saigon" was a deliberate attempt because it is unlikely to come to Singapore with the provocative 'costumes' and dance. I enjoyed both very much.
I went to Hampton Court too and did the maze, reached the centre in 12 minutes and out in 10, supposed to be fairly good time. But I did not go inside the palace, little interest after Windsor and Warwick. Later, we walked from Hampton Court to Kingston along River Thames, passing some nice, enviable riverfront houses, the residents can really take their own boats to Kingston for work.
Other than those tourist activities, I accompanied Valerie to an apartment near Canary Wharf at Docklands for a housewarming, the windows look out to the Millennium Dome. Took a walk along the Thames from Waterloo to Tower Bridge as that it was too early in the morning to qualify for travelcard. I know it is not fair to compare, but I think the Seine is more interesting.
Coming back to London, it's VERY VERY expensive! Making it harder to like London. I didn't shop or buy any souvenirs in Britain, unless you count two postcards and one popup map for myself as souvenirs. Perhaps it was end of the sale season, but I was hardly motivated to step into the shops or window-shop. Still, it seems more conducive to shop in tourist towns such as Windsor or Bath than in London. For one, the shopping streets are pedestrian, thus less traffic pollution and the shops are more concentrated.
The rest of England is slightly better, except those admission charges, which average �10 each. The ironic thing about England is that some of the best are free, such as the National Gallery, the British Museum, the walking tour in York by the volunteers, the cathedrals and the beautiful countryside.

Reverend Buckshot
Yeah I need another guitar like another hole in the head, but I've been intrigued.
You guys that have them, do you still like them? |

goldtopper, i was reviewing your earlier experiences.
What do you think caused you to not bond with it? I had an early Eastpointe Reverend Rocco that I could never quite bond with, mostly the tone was just too upper midrange-focused for me. |

You know, it's hard to put a finger on it.
It had a great, solid neck. The pups were great and the bass contour was cool. Totally well made. Maybe it was the odd shape that put me off. I'm pretty traditional I guess and I seem to gravitate to T,S or LP's. All of the nice things said, I don't think I'd buy another just because of the wonky shape.

Not exactly what you asked about, but...
I just bought a used Reverend Warhawk II 390 and Am really happy with it. Definitely a different beast from a Buckshot. Build/finish quality is great. The tone and bass contour controls both really effect the tone and are very usable. The neck is really comfortable. I'm definitely still in the honeymoon phase, but once I put new strings on and tweaked the action a bit I was hooked. I like the odd shape too. I wasn't able to play 1 first, so took a chance, but I'm glad I did! Gratuitous Photos: |

A little over a year with mine, and it's a keeper. The only thing I've changed is swapping the bridge pickup for a GFS L'il Puncher XL 10K (judging from comments on the Reverend Forum, I'm not the only one who's used that pickup for a Buckshot). I liked the bridge pickup, but it wasn't a real standout. Since I already have a traditional tele-style (Logan) with Keystones, I figured I'd take the Buckshot in a slightly different direction. The L'il Puncher matches up nicely with the Revtron mini HB neck pickup, and it gives me a 2 HB option while still keeping a toe in tele-style waters. I wouldn't want one instead of a tele, but it's a nice addition to the family. I also have Danelectros and a 2 P90 LP, so the Buckshot is my Swiss Army Knife guitar. Definitely the most versatile electric I own. Emotionally, it's not my #1, but functionally I would have to say it is. I don't regret buying it new, but a nice used one would probably be a good choice, value-wise.

Well, I'm picking one up tonight. I had put a low bid in on a mint cream Buckshot on ebay, w/HSC. I hadn't even noticed the seller was only 45 minutes from me. Anyway I was the high (only) bidder, so I'll be taking a little drive this evening. I get to save the shipping costs, and he gets to avoid the shipping hassle.
I hope I like it. Clump, I've admired those Warhawks also. |

Well, if you got a good price on it, I'm sure you're OK if you don't bond with it. They're an attractive guitar (Reverend's top seller I believe), and I can't imagine having a huge amount of trouble finding a buyer. If you do bond with it, congratulations. I think they're an excellent workhorse guitar. Maybe it says something that when I went to look for a pic of mine to post, I could only find pics of me gigging with it. All my other guitars, I have pics of them posing at home.

Dan, cool. Mine's got a maple neck. 475 w/ Reverend HSC and it's supposedly mint. Not a steal, but not too bad, I think. Impulse buy for sure, I guess I bid not thinking I had much chance of "winning".

The honeymoon continues...
after a few years now! This is one guitar I have not modded whatsoever! The only thing I'm contemplating is a noiseless bridge pup (Area or Wilde) for playing out as that fully exposed pup is a great RF antenna in some venues.
Incredibly versatile axe--the neck is wonderful and IMHO every guitar should have that contour control.

Well, it's pretty nice.
If I have any criticisms they would be that the bridge pickup could twang more, and the fretboard is a little flat. I had known going into this that lots of folks had thought these things too though, so no great surprises there. The seller was super, threw in some extras like strings and a case humidifier, and even a Reverend t shirt! He also ended up taking 10 bucks off the price, when all was said and done, as I'd already paid the entire cost including shipping charges, and since I was picking it up, he'd agreed to refund me the 40 bucks; he gave me 50. So a pretty great experience. I had picked up my kids after work, we went out to a nearby bowling alley for all-you-can-eat wings, and then took a drive out to the seller's place. After picking up the guitar we went to a beautiful wooded state park with two lakes near there, and enjoyed the sunset out on the beach. Anyway yeah, it's a nice guitar. |

I have a Flatroc, about the same but with 2 Filtrons in it.
Balances well, built like a tank, always gets nice remarks on look and tone (but never on my playing...HEY!!!!). I have played many gigs with it, never a problem Use that BCC...it's Reverend's secret weapon.
I play an Esquire because I can't afford the other pickup. |

Pic.s or it didn't happen. I don't know what sounds best, a Reverend, sunset on the beach or all you can eat wings.
Does the body feel smaller than normal? And by normal, I mean a strat or tele. |

I have no idea how to do pics here, when I figure that out some day I'm gonna put up my whole collection of guitars and cool t shirts!
I wouldn't say the body feels smaller than a Fender, but the neck is noticeably flatter, which can be a good thing or not. I'm still trying to adjust to it |

I picked up a used Buckshot in the same color as yours at GC a few weeks ago and somehow got a steal. It was in perfect and seemingly unplayed condition. I got it for $350. I absolutely LOVE it. Great, versaitle guitar and it just has some terrific sounds. I like the way it feels ad the way it's built. You are going to fall in love with your Buckshot. I guarantee it.

saneff that is a sweet deal.
I've not played the Buckshot just a whole lot, as most of my playing these days is at band rehearsals/gigs, and it's been awhile for either, but I am really very impressed with it, with the little bit of plunking around I have done on it |

Fort Kearny State Historical Park
SummaryBuilt to protect Overland Trail travelers, Fort Kearny SHP near Kearney was a stage station, home station for the Pony Express, outfitting depot for Indian campaigns and home of the Pawnee Scouts. The stockade, parade grounds and blacksmith shop have been rebuilt. Attractions
Archeological exploration by the Nebraska State Historical Society to locate building sites and other features has helped the Commission develop the park to give visitors an insight into the conditions and events contemporary with the settlement of the American West. This history is revealed in several exhibits in the interpretive center and in the carpenter-blacksmith shop. Walkways lead to the stockade where more information is available. Overnight Accommodations
Camping is available at nearby Fort Keany State Recreation Area. Campers will find south-central Nebraska's Fort Kearny State Recreation Area much to their liking. The attractive 152-acre area is located 3/4 mile east and 1 mile north of Fort Kearny State Historical Park. Facility Details

Local websites in OS X Mavericks
Developing sites locally after switching to OS X 10.9
Yesterday, I upgraded to Mavericks and went to hack on one of my local sites. I was greeted by the rather ironic "It Works!" apache page instead of the site I was expecting.
This is no problem to sort out. OS X 10.9 replaces your old /private/etc/apache2/httpd.conf
and /private/etc/php.ini.default
files with its own. Just replace these new files with your old ones, restart apache and you're good to go:
cd /private/etc/
mv apache2/httpd.conf.pre-update apache2/httpd.conf
mv php.ini.default-5.2-previous php.ini.default

5 Quickies To Help Give Your Job Search a Boost by Kimberly Schneiderman - Sep, 2013 1. We vs. I: In our society, we (notice I said 'we') often use the word 'we' to describe our work.

Diane Sawyer - Tweets call her tipsy
Nov 7, 2012 / 8:34 pm
Diane Sawyer's election night performance left some viewers asking if she had begun celebrating the election a bit early.
Co-anchoring ABC News' coverage on Tuesday, the veteran journalist struck a different manner from her practiced, straight-news-delivering style.
Sawyer spoke more slowly than usual while seeming to prop herself on outstretched arms at the anchor desk she shared with George Stephanopoulos.
"OK, I wanna, can we have our music, because this is another big one here? Minnesota, we're ready to project Minnesota, rrright now. ... Well, tonight we know that President Barack has won Minnesota," she said around 10 p.m. EST, stumbling over President Barack Obama's name.
Maybe Sawyer was just weary from the recent torrent of news.
In any case, Twitter users took quick notice and began cracking jokes.
Sawyer's name was soon trending with unflattering posts, while a new Twitter handle, Drunk Diane Sawyer, collected hundreds of followers.
"A bit tipsy," ''hammered" or "on pain killers, muscle relaxers, benzos or some combination" were among the jeering explanations. Another likened it to an episode of HBO's drama "The Newsroom," in which Will McAvoy, the fictitious anchorman, had eaten a couple of pot brownies before unexpectedly being summoned to his anchor desk to report a news story.
Some tweeters joked that a more fun-loving Sawyer was a ploy by ABC to boost viewership as Obama faced off against Mitt Romney in the election. Several Twitter followers said they were drawn to the network by word that Sawyer was behaving, by one description, "a bit wacky."
"Bad night for Romney," one tweeter summed up. "Worse night for Diane Sawyer?"
ABC had no comment Wednesday, while Sawyer seemed to acknowledge the Twitter reaction in her own tweeted message: "Read your tweets the good, bad, and the funny. See you on ABCWorldNews."

The transfer to and up-take of melanosomes within the keratinocytes suggests a feedback control mechanism regulating from the same keratinocytes. And this keratinocyte-melanocyte metabolic activity interrelationship should be based on the efficacy of new whitening cosmetic compounds. This seems to be the future trend of treating hypermelanosis worldwide, according with different topics presented and discussed by scientists such as Hailang Zhang Xijing of the Medical University, Jie Gao of the Nanjing Medical University, Leihong Xiang of the Fudan University of Shanghay, and Xuejun Zhang of Anhui Medical University.
Herbal Medicine, used systematically and topically, acupuncture, moxibustion massage and diet seem to be the main treatment modalities in cosmetic dermatology. Thus, more and more customers and dermatologists have turned to TMC for preventive and curative treatments in cosmetology. After thousands years of trial and error practice on humans, Chinese physicians have identified hundreds of herbs and food products that have cosmetic benefits. The combination of herbal formulas, fang ji, is a unique Chinese approach to cosmetic conditions. An herbal formula is always tailored to an individual customer/patient for a specific condition. Therefore, the last contributions highlighted from the ancient and modern Chinese therapies were focused from Yonk Ming Li of the American Traditional Chinese Medicine Society, Junyr Huang of the Beijing University of Chinese Medicine and Song Ping of the China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences. The application of some herbal medicines in high-tech cosmetics products were discussed by Nuan Chen of the Shiseido China Research Center. He focused on the activity of some herbal medicine, demonstrating the advantages such as whitening, moisturizing and nourishing agents when used in the field of cosmeceuticals.
Natural Chemistry is an Oxymoron or a Pleonasm?
This was the interesting topic presented by Karl Lintner, general manager of Sederma/Croda. It was a non-commercial talk on today's absurd opposition between chemistry and natural. Karl strongly asserted that this opposition represents a "cry against the rape of our language, the measure of words and terminology, a wake-up call to stop bashing chemistry". This way of thinking is a danger for innovation and science in general. Cosmetics should be formulated to be safe and effective, whatever the source of material.
Protection from Photoaging
Mens sana in corpore sano, or a healthy mind in a healthy body, is a way of living. But intrinsic aging caused by genes and extrinsic aging cause by environmental factors such as UV rays and blue light, normally begins in the mid-20s. And striving for beautiful, healthy facial skin is a common aspiration for all people of the world with standards of attractiveness that are surprisingly universal. Thus, the new personalized medicine has become using lifestyle and the environment as principle tools in both presentation and treatment of skin photoaging.
In an attempt to block some of the damage incurred by sun exposure, antioxidants have been explored as a means to deal with UVR-induced oxidative stress, UVA and blue light radiation in particular. Oxidative stress has a complex etiology with multiple risk factors that involve the interplay between genetic and environmental influences. There is compelling evidence that suggests that sunscreens and dietary plant foods are protective against degenerative diseases. Some topical and systemic antioxidants include resveratrol, vitamin E, vitamin C, retynyl phosphate and lutein. As a potent antioxidant, vitamin C acts as a scavenger of free radicals and reactive oxygen generated during normal metabolism. This nutrient plays a major role in the manufacture of connective tissues and serves as the primary ingredient of collagen. Another beneficial effect is the control of excessive skin pigmentation by the suppression of melanin formation, thereby promoting skin whitening. All these observations came out during the topics presented by Tetsuo Shu of Daikanyam Clinic, Evangeline B. Handog of the Research Institute for Tropical Medicine and other scientists participating to the general discussion such as Hunchen Wei, a professor of dermatology at the Mt. Sinai School of Medicine.

"The Life And Times Of Prophecy"
The Hottest Tomboy In Hollywood, and The Girliest Bitch… Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake Got Married In Italy.
Hey Justin, hope you like those pics of you and Jess with your Moms and Pops when you told them you were Engaged.
Yes, they had Prophecy written all over em.
No, I won't Hit a man with Glasses
Good Riddance
Garry "Prophecy" Sun for SunOfHollywood.com
Listen Man, these are serious times we are living in. These ARE Life and Times of Prophecy. The End of Days, whatever "End of Days" May Mean, and whatever will happen After The End Of That End Day.
Try to find Meaning in these Meaningless Things of a Lost World we're Living In. You Will see the Meaning in all these daily signs, you just have to have the eyes, ears and the right heart and mind for them.
Take for example the shaking of our Earth in recent days. These are all signs. There are so many meaningful things to be shared about Earthquakes and Quakes of our past. But let's take these recent ones for discussion.
On May 20th, the region of Northern Italy suffered a Magnitude 6.0 Earthquake, causing the Loss of nearly 20 Souls, and huge amounts of damage, as most buildings in all of Italy are Centuries old. The region has suffered nearly 50 Aftershocks since those days, and the highest of which was just today at 5.8. The Epicenter of the May 20th Earthquake was estimated to be Mirandola, Italy, roughly 100 Miles from the Coastal City of Venezia… Venice, Italy.
Venice, Italy. One of the Most Beautiful Cities in the World, is Absolutely Unreal if You've ever Been Blessed with the Opportunity to Visit such an Enchanting and Magical Land, which literally Sweeps you away into another World. A World that is Not of this Earth.
A Large Earthquake around that city could lead to that entire city being swept underwater.
And Now Today, The South Land of California was hit with a Magnitude 4.0 Earthquake. The Epicenter is estimated to be around the Channel Islands, roughly 40 Miles from the Coast of Malibu and their 20 Million Dollar 3 Bedroom 2 bathroom Beachfront Homes filled with Hollywood Bigwigs and Producers, and really, roughly around the same distance to Venice, California.
Yo, I've had premonitions of both cities being targets of these type of disasters, whether they be created by Nature, or created by the hands of Man. There is now looming evidence that both regions could be hit with something we may have never known or expected. But the fact that these two regions, the Two Cities we have always tied together by their names of Venice, to have such significant Quakes around the Same Time is clearly a sign to be heeded. Don't discount these events as two completely unrelated Earthquakes. There is Clearly A Message In All Of This.
Now is the time that we should recognize we should all brace ourselves. We really don't know what to Expect. Our world has completely lost itself in all that is morally corrupt.
I'm Not Afraid to Call Our World Out For What It Really Is. We Have Lost It As A Society, and As A People, And As Individuals.
I myself as a child could have never imagined the World that i would find myself in as a Grown Adult. It is Worse Than Anything I could Have Honestly Ever Imagined.
With the Loss of our Moral Soul, We are Losing Control Of All Things Around Us.
Take It As You Wish. But Just Know That Now Is The Time To Get Your Mind And Your Soul Right.
In These Times Every Night Or Day Could Be Your Last.
We're Blessed With The Gift Of Each New Day We See To Pass.
The Summer Pool Season In Vegas Just Hasn't Kicked Off Until Tao Beach Starts…
Just as it did yesterday on Cinco De Mayo at the Venetian.
Stacy Keibler was scheduled to be the guest of honor… but she thoroughly flaked.
Lucky for Us, and the rest of Youz, Joe Jonas decided to pay a surprise visit to the Beach's first day.
Krysten Ritter from the new ABC show "Don't Trust The B**** In Apartment 23″ also stopped by, along with Jessica Szohr from Gossip Girl, who looked a little cold to be doing a Vegas Summer Pool Party.. .if ya know what I mean!
While others fulfilled their contractual obligations, and Joe fulfilled one he didn't even sign… I take it this means Stacy was probably preoccupied with George Clooney in the Real Venice of Italy.
Sux For Her. Vegas Got It More Krackkin… Trust

Elisabetta Canalis was seen rollin around Hollywood last night with some new guy who definitely aynt George Clooney.
And she definitely wasn't trying to be seen with him. Strangely, as soon as she was no longer with the dude, she was all smiles when she walked into Music Box.
I wonder why.

Jersey Shore's Favorite Ab-Man… The "Other" Ab-Man, Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino, Stopped by The Sugar Factory at the Paris Hotel in Las Vegas today, drawing a huge crowd on the Vegas Strip just across from Bellagio's famed Fountain Show.
Mike displayed his Signature Couture Lollipop, available at all The Sugar Factory Locations in Vegas, at a whopping $25 a pop !! A Lollipop that is. I'll Tell ya… A Lollipop for $25 Dollars should be have a new nickname. "The Sucker For Suckers". The Situation's Lollipop is the next in a line of Couture Lollipops that includes Britney Spears, Kim Kardashian, Nicole Scherzinger, Mel B. and more.
Mike's Lollipop handle is covered in Rhinestones, the colors of the Italian Flag, which is Red, White And Green. The Candy Head of the Pop is refillable at only $3 a pop, but that sounds like a very unsanitary process if you ask me.
And it was apparently a Family Situation today as well, as Mike brought his entire family down to share in the Red Carpet Festivities, which included his Mother and siblings.
Mike will be hosting at Gallery Nightclub tonight in Planet Hollywood

The Buzz over Dancing With The Stars Season 13 is that it will probably be the best DWTS ever. And judging by the first kick-off Afterparty… They're definitely right.
The party was on and crackin at SBE's Newly Remodeled Hyde Lounge on Sunset, hosted by Karina Smirnoff and American Inspiration J.R. Martinez, and pretty much everybody came to shake their groove thing after the first school session in front of 20 Million people.
We're talkin everybody came through !! Let's name em off shall we? Of course, there was DWTS sweetheart Karina Smirnoff, along with her partner, Iraqi War Hero turned Dancing Celebrity, J.R. Martinez. We also got to see Kristin Cavallari make her DWTS Party Debut, along with sole Kardashian son Rob Kardashian, and recently recruited dancing beauty, Peta Murgatroyd.
Let's also include Kym Johnson, David Arquette, Cheryl Burke, Ricki Lake, Chris Jericho, Ralph Macchio, George Clooney's most recent Flavor of the Month before dating the tallest "Kiebler Elf", and former DWTS cast member, Stacy Kiebler… Ms. Elisabetta Canalis, straight outta Italy son !! Anna Trebunskaya was there as well, and let's not forget singer / dancing stud, Mark Ballas. Soccer sweetheart Hope Solo also came… Solo… cause Maksim was nowhere to be found.
In addition to Dancing With The Stars, there were two other shows that represented their stripes… Dana Wilkey from the 2nd Season of "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills", and Leilani Dowding from VH1′s "Tough Love Miami". Holy Crap that's a lot of people and a whole heckuva lot of TV Airtime. And for those who weren't television related, Ricki Lake brought her recently inducted Fiance, Christian Evans, and Hyde also saw Fashion Designer Donna Mizani.
The only people who didn't seem to make it to the party was Entertainment Royal Spawn, Chaz Bono and partner Lacey Schwimmer, who we heard dined at Christina Aguilera's favorite Pre-DUI Pizza Pit Stop, Osteria Mozza on Melrose. Carson Kressley, Chyna Phillips and partner Tony Dovolani, the Chmerkovskiy brothers Valentin and Maksim… Nancy Grace and partner Tristan Macmanus, Ricki Lake's partner Derek Hough, and Peta Mergatroyd's partner Ron Artest turned Metta World Peace.
And while that may sound like quite a bit of people missing, what definitely wasn't missing was the party atmosphere, as everybody was gettin their groove on as the DJ was spinnin mad old school tunes and Hip-Hop favorites that kept the party going till the Venue shut down.
And again, if this party was any indication of the Season to come, we definitely are in store for the best season of Dancing With The Stars yet.
Stay tuned, as we give you more from the Afterparty.

Hilton Sisters… Kardashian Sisters… Simpson Sisters… Middleton Sisters…
They are all shuddering in Fear.
Cause Petra AndTamaraEcclestone are ready to take over Hollywood and pretty much the Entire World. And guess what, they probably can.
And why wouldn't anybody want to create a Reality Show based around These sisters, and show us what a True Hollywood Billionaire Lifestyle can be. Don't get me wrong. I do understand, it's all Daddy's money anyway. But Eff it. Hollywood doesn't produce many Billionaires. To watch the Ecclestone Sisters Globe Trotting around the world, Formula 1 Style, is something that I think anybody would tune in for.
And Daaamn They Fine !! Petra and Tamara are starting to get seen at various Hotzpotz, like Boa and Robertson Boulevard, letting their presence be known in all their BillionHeiress Splendor.
As a matter of fact, when the Hilton sisters attended Petra's wedding in Italy with the Black Eyed Peas and many others, I'm pretty sure they were saying to themselves "I feel really, really poor right now"
Yes "other" sisters. Your Reality Sets can all be swallowed up with Ecclestone Pocket Change. Be Afraid. Be Very, Very Afraid.

Lucky for all of us… Not everyone is into keeping everything a secret
Let me introduce you all to Kirstina Colonna. She recently broke into the industry when she played the female version of Bieber, as the character "Justine Bieber" the huge YouTube Spoof on Bieber's "Never Say Never" documentary, "The Bieber Movie: For Guys"… Bieber hairstyle and all.
Even luckier for us, she left the Bieber wig at home this time, and showed us just how daaaamn fine she truly is.
She stopped by Millions Of Milkshakes at the Culver City Westfield Shopping Center for Shawn Marion's launch, but then decided to get a little personal with us and carry us on a little journey while perusing through the realms of every man and woman's favorite fantasy, Victoria's Secret. And while set in the mood of intimate apparel, she shared a few of her thoughts on recent controversies between Playboy's Hugh Hefner and Crystal Harris… And it sounds to us like Kirstina has no qualms about elderly men taking the Blue Pill.
And of course, yet another beauty secret of this Superstar on the Rise is her penchant for health conscious habits… like opting for a refreshing Jamba Juice on a Hot Summer Day… A day filled with her own hotness heating up the vicinity.
Oh, and the final beauty secret she shared with us… World Peace makes the World a Better Place… Proven by her Priceless Venezuelan, German, Italian and Native American Genetic Code, leaving an exotic flavor that Jamba Juice could never duplicate in a smoothie.
So Thank you Kirstina, for making the world a better place… through World Peace…
Too bad she's so damn hot that peace will forever be disturbed, from all the heads for her that turn.

Yes Everyone, Here we are again to introduce yet another amazing lady who is "HOT On The Horizon"… and it's none other than Melissa Molinaro, the woman who has left both Canada AND Italy shaking their head for losing their most amazing of creations… I'd hate myself too.
You might know Melissa's striking features from "Making The Band 3" and "Pussycat Dolls Present: The Search For The Next Doll"… But what you don't know is that Melissa is about to hit Supernova Status in just a few short Sun Cycles.
While Melissa has recently been compared to quite a few Socialites, Melissa refuses to fit the Socialite Stereotype… Nope, Socialite she is not… Talent she is filled.
Last night Melissa gave an absolutely amazing performance, which she claims is her first live solo performance… I guess natural talents just have that extra dash of professionale, cause Melissa doesn't skip a beat when its lips she won't sync.
We all know very few Singers out there are able to keep the energy and the party live with intricately choreographed dance moves, coupled with legitimate singing. Most sacrifice either live vocals, or dance performance, as few physiques can endure the rigors of Superstar performances. You should def know now that Melissa is not one of those "most", as she gave it her ALL both vocally, and physically.
I would liken Melissa's dancing prowess to that of a beautiful Lady Bug… stuck in a Jumping Bean… yeah, that works. Just imagine the most angelic beauty you have ever seen, harmonizing her soul across the scales, and frantically dancing uncontrollably… If you can imagine that, you still won't come close to being graced by her full presence in physical form.
And the party showed much love for Melissa… as she was accompanied by "Honey 2" co-star and yet another SunOfHollywood.com favorite, Katerina Graham, along with Kim Lee from "Hangover 2", who is of course another SunOfHollywood.com favorite. The party also was hosted by my man Leo Madrid, who celebrated his Birthday last night as well at Ultra Suede Lounge in West Hollywood. The Celebration kicked off Ultra Suede's Toy Box theme for every Tuesday night, and they def kicked it off right with a light so bright as Melissa Molinaro's and her Aura at night.
If you know anything about me and my boy Leo Madrid, you know we're both Def happy for making it through to see another year with a smile on our face… and how could you not stop smiling when you've got Melissa singing "Happy Birthday" to you… I could probably shed a tear for Leo my daamn self !!
And let's not forget the festivities which included Gargantuan Drag Queens.. Half Naked Butt-Cakes, and Melissa's own "Mely's Angels" found in the Celestial form of Besties Shannon Vital and Rachel Cabe.
Just know that whenever Melissa's around, Brilliance overflows the arena… So much so, that there's really too much Melissa for just one Post… And this has got to be THE ABSOLUTE HOTTEST Photo Gallery to Date… And Be sure to check out the Video of Melissa's Live Performance Below !!
So stay tuned, and we'll bring you even more of Melissa Molinaro, and why she's so HOT On The Horizon.

Pope John Paul II, likely World History's most revered of Pontificates, was Beatified by Pope Benedict XVI today in St. Peter's Square in Vatican City today before a crowd of nearly 2 Million.
The Catholic Church declared Pope John Paul II "Blessed" which sets him at one level below Sainthood. He was given immediate approval to Beatification by Pope Benedict when the crowd at John Paul's funeral chanted "Santo Subito", which is Italian for "Saint Immediately".
The Catholic Church needed a miracle to beatify him when in 2006, Sister Marie Simon-Pierre, a French nun, confined to bed by Parkinson's Disease, claimed she had 'complete and lasting cure after members of her community prayed for the intercession of Pope John Paul II. A second miracle is needed in order to declare Pope John Paul II a Saint.
Vials of Pope John Paul II's blood were also on display during the beatification ceremony. The blood was taken from him during his final stages of illness in case he needed a blood transfusion. The vials were used as a relic for the Mass for his beatifcation.
While I find Pope John Paul II's Beatification process as a great honor… I would honestly have to say that vials of blood seems very Non-Catholic Church to me.
