Phew, we must have caught you at a good time or that rare moment in between levels on Candy Crush Saga. Before you go back to making your way through those oh so addicting puzzles, we found someecards that are a little topical, a bit funny . . . but mostly a cry for help. Take a peek and share your favorites with those who can relate — we definitely can.
Autistic, ADHD Kids Prone to Video-Game Addiction
Children with autism spectrum disorders and attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) have a higher risk of having a video-game addiction. According to a study published in the journal Pediatrics, children with autism spectrum disorder spend about twice as much time playing video games than children who don't have a developmental disability.
"What we found is that it looks like (addictive gaming) was largely driven by inattention," Christopher Engelhardt, one of the study's authors from the University of Missouri in Columbia, told Reuters Health.
The study was based on a survey of parents of 141 boys between the ages 8 and 18. Of those, 56 had an autism spectrum disorder, 44 had ADHD and 41 were developing normally. On average, kids with an autism spectrum disorder played 2.1 hours of video games per day. Children with ADHD spent about 1.7 hours per day, and normally developing kids played about 1.2 hours per day. Kids with an autism spectrum disorder or ADHD were also more likely to have a video-game system in their rooms and were more likely to play role-playing games.
10 Video Games That Leave the Violence Behind
Any parent would be hard-pressed to find a child who doesn't find playing video games a popular pastime. But you can't assume that every game your child wants to play will be "kid friendly." With doctors linking violent video games and aggression, it would be wise to consider Entertainment Software Rating Board ratings, referrals from other parents you trust, and a true evaluation of the content — before buying your child the game he's been badgering you about. To cut down the time it takes to do your homework, Circle of Moms members share 10 nonviolent video games that still ensure hours of fun.
The 10 Most Violent Video Games — and What Kids Can Play Instead
It seems like more and more kids play video games these days, and very often the games are violent. The attraction, says Common Sense Media via the Huffington Post, is that "many ultra-violent video games are actually technically superb," which underscores the need for parents to stay apprised of what games their children play.
"Of course, many video games can provide enriching experiences and learning opportunities. But with ultra-violent video games, the negatives clearly outweigh any positives for kids," reports the Huffington Post.
With that in mind, Common Sense Media has ranked the most violent video games — from "Saints Row: The Third" to "Call of Duty Black Opps II" — and suggests more child-friendly alternatives in the same genre.

6 Indie Games to Try on Ouya Right Now
Your Ouya just arrived this week. Here's how to make the most of it. This post has been shared from our friends at ReadWrite.
By Lauren Orsini
The high-resolution glitz of E3 takes a backseat to an unusual, lesser appreciated side of gaming. Who needs a PlayStation 4 or Xbox One when you can get your hands on the underdog challenger console Ouya, starting today?
Since Ouya makes it easy for anyone to develop their own game for free, there's a huge variation in the levels of quality you'll encounter. You're probably not going to find the next big budget AAA game, like Last of Us, on Ouya. But you just might find the next indie hit like Limbo. Ouya is a marketplace for indie games to thrive.
I've had my Ouya for a week now. In that time, I've found some diamonds, but just keep in mind they're all homebrew diamonds in the rough. Here are six of my favorite picks, all available in the Ouya Discover store right now.
Hidden in Plain Sight
What makes Hidden so addictive is a shocking twist on the one part of gaming we usually take for granted — knowing which avatar on the screen is supposed to be the player. In this simple-but-tense timed multiplayer, gamers must first find their avatars. This is a lot harder than it sounds, especially when there are 30 identical ninja avatars walking around the screen. Hidden's 16-bit graphics only enhance the difficulty.
On Ouya, you can play two of Hidden's scenarios for free indefinitely. If you want more, you can unlock three other modes of play for a donation of $1 or more.
The Secret of Universe Alpha
Blunt graphics (pictured above) and booming dubstep remind you this game was made in somebody's spare time. But its gameplay - complete with world exploration, dungeons, puzzles and challenging boss battles — harkens instead to everything that was good about our favorite 90s platformers. In Universe Alpha, you are an explorer making first contact with aliens, shooting down bad guys and charting the literal center of the universe.
Developed exclusively for Ouya by Dreamzle, you can download Universe Alpha in its entirety for free on Ouya Discover.
Nintendo Gives Classic Characters a Wii U Reboot at E3
It's been two years since the unveiling of Nintendo's Wii U at E3, so rather than recent years' demonstration of how to use the new technology and Game Pad, the company's E3 news centered on the upcoming releases of classic franchise titles updated for the console.
Many of the Wii U titles will launch in the later part of 2013, in time for the holiday season, while others are planned for 2014. Though the games won't be available for months, Nintendo is making four of the games available for preview play at select Best Buy locations on June 12 and June 15. There, customers can play demos of the just announced Super Mario 3D World, Mario Kart 8, The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD, and Donkey Kong Country Returns: Tropical Freeze.
Read on for a look at the games getting their public play debut this week.
Tetris' Surprising Health Benefits
We're happy to present this post from our partner site Yahoo! Shine:
Scientists at McGill University in Montreal, Canada, have confirmed what kids have been insisting for ages: playing video games can be good for you. Specifically, playing block-building games like Tetris can do more to fix lazy eye than traditional treatments.
Lazy eye (medical name: amblyopia) is a condition in which vision doesn't develop properly in one eye. It can cause permanent sight problems if left untreated, since the brain eventually just stops processing the blurry images coming from the underfunctioning eye. According to The Eye Digest, about 3 percent of people in the United States have amblyopia.
Find out how doctors use video games to improve lazy eye after the jump.
8 Limits That Make Video Games Good For Your Kids
Every kid begs for video games. Parents hear the plea over and over again until they're so worn down they knuckle under and buy one. But as soon as you buy the game, the real trouble begins: junior sits down and won't get up. When he does, he's aggressive, screaming, "But the game isn't finished!" At that point you wonder, "What have I done?"
Electronics are part of your daily life, too. You're reading this online, I just hung up my cell phone, most of your Christmas gifts were probably bought online to avoid the crowds, and soon you'll be hopping over to Facebook to see how things are with your "friends." Like it or not, our children will need to know how to use electronics and computers in order to be successful in this world.
Did you know that the underlying principal for every video game is math, problem solving, and strategic thinking? Those are the skills your child is using and expanding as they play video games. But Circle of Moms member Mell L. still wonders: "With all the new tech out there . . . are we dulling our children's imaginations?"
I ponder the same thing as Mell. No matter what the researchers say about video games, I still wanted my kids outside, reading books, and using their imagination. Because of that, we locked horns, a lot.
Then one day at work, while the tech was fixing my computer, again, I asked, "How did you become a computer tech?" His answer rocked my world: "I played video games." Turns out playing video games benefited my kids, too. They both work in the computer industry today. But I made sure there were limits.
Here, we're sharing eight limits to set for video games so that your child's electronic world is balanced with creative outdoor play.
Video Games Get Museum Curation Status
"The Starry Night," "The Scream," The Sims. No misreading here. The New York Museum of Modern Art just announced what so many of us already knew: video games are art! This week, MoMA revealed that it acquired 14 video games for its permanent collection, with the intention of adding a total of 40 works in the future.
In a blog post by the museum's senior curator in the Department of Architecture and Design, Paola Antonelli explains how the games are, of course, art, but they're also bastions of intelligent design. "Our criteria, therefore, emphasize not only the visual quality and aesthetic experience of each game, but also the many other aspects — from the elegance of the code to the design of the player's behavior — that pertain to interaction design."
So what games were deemed worthy of the museum's first round of acquisitions? The list starts with classics and continues to more recent hits: Pac-Man, Tetris, Another World, Myst, Sim City 2000, Vib-Ribbon, The Sims, Katamari Damacy, EVE Online, Dwarf Fortress, Portal, flOw, Passage, and Canabalt.
MoMA hopes to add more fan favorites like Pong and Super Mario Bros. over the next several years. While the museum has its criteria for selection, what would yours be? Which games do you think are worthy of a place among the white museum walls?
Vintage Video Game Ads For Girls and For Boys Who Like Girls
It was 40 — yes, 40 — years ago, in 1972, that Atari introduced the first successful video game: Pong. We've come a long way since the two-dimensional table-tennis game jump-started the multibillion-dollar industry, but there's still work to be done when it comes to the relationship between female players and video games.
The gaming industry has traditionally been a boys club with women only showing up in ads and games as sexed-up characters. And games targeted toward girls have been stereotypically girlie — full of princesses, shopping, and pink. Although it's not all bad. In recent years, there has been a push to develop more gender-neutral games, and last year the Entertainment Software Association released a report that found women 18 and older comprise more of the gaming audience than boys 17 and younger. So maybe we'll see more female-friendly games in the future?
Many of us grew up in the '80s and '90s playing the "girl" games like Tiger's handheld Disney princess games, but we were also equally interested in generic games like Donkey Kong and Super Mario Bros. and even "boy" games like 007 and GoldenEye, which Sarah Silverman told us she played in her younger years. As we hopefully move away from the gaming industry's sexist and stereotypical past and into a more gender-accepting future, let's look at how these retro video game ads targeted girls or used women to target boys.

Filter Results |
Dont let the name turn you offPros: First off, I don't have this specific set. I have the 32" 1080p model, but I'm assuming everything else is exact. I've had this set for over a year now and it literally gets 16-24 hours of use per day. Most of the times because I crash out with it still on, but then others are using it too. It has not failed me, I've lost no pixels, and there is no indication of how bad I've really treated this thing. The price offered here is excellent, and you will get a lot of use out of it. I originally bought it as a monitor to game on my PC, but now I use it to watch movies and online shows too. Cons: There were a couple things out of the box that simply didn't work. The clock itself doesn't keep time, which has Zero consequence to me, but is annoying. I wanted to use the TVs speakers as the center channel of a 5.1 setup. I have a 5.1 setup on my computer, and since the existing center speaker is so small, I figured I would keep the surround speakers, but utilize the TV because it's speakers are bigger than my existing center. Even though the connections are there, I couldn't make it happen, and talking to tech support was ZERO help...they just advised me not to use the TV's speakers at all. Other Thoughts: Overall the picture is crisp with a good HD source, and it's durable, and most of all stays pretty cool even after long sessions. Looks pretty bad if you're running 480p or standard definition, but I'm probably spoiled. This has been an excellent buy for me..not one regret, and I would buy a Sceptre again without hesitation. Did you find this review helpful? |
Very Decent TVPros: This TV offers so much more than I expected. Nice brilliant colors. Even old movies look great. Has many ways to adjust and fine tune for a better picture and has much more. All in all, for the price, a very good TV. Cons: The only problem is the sound was not good. Went into the sound settings and equalizer and adjusted, that helped a little, sound was alot better. Decided to add a pair of $20 computer speakers and WOW it sounds great. Yes, well worth the price I paid. 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Do not buy horriblePros: Worked good for a while Cons: Had for less than a year. The blue light turn on when tv gets turned on but no picture or sound. Only way to turn it off in this state is to unpug power. I unplug the power and turn it on sometimes it works sometimes it does not. Very bad TV do not purchase. 0 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Great buy.Pros: Great picture, decent sound which can be adjusted from OSD. Cons: none 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Great Bedroom TV and doubles as a PC monitorPros: Many inputs - 3 HDMI, Component, Composite, VGA, RF. Cons: Sound is mediocre at best, but it works Other Thoughts: This makes an excellent small room TV. You can even use it as a PC monitor so long as you realize it is not a desktop monitor to be used with a two foot viewing distance! Four to twelve feet is ideal and perfect for this TV. Sound is adequate, but even a pair of PC speakers will improve it. A 2.1 amplified system is ideal. 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Get itPros: Crystal clear Cons: Came with non-functioning remote (see below) Other Thoughts: Some buttons on the remote didn't work so I called customer support, within 30 seconds I had a customer support technician asking me for my name and address son he could ship me a new remote for free. I was expecting ton have to pay shipping, but I just gave him my model and serial number and he had it shipped out for me. 8 out of 8 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Great LED TV!Pros: -Great display for gaming on PC and consoles Cons: -Somewhat long turn on time Other Thoughts: For the amount of money I spent on it, I am certainly getting my moneys worth. The speakers are the only real issue in my opinion and are the reason that I rated it 4/5. I'm sure with a little tweaking in the settings, it can be improved a little bit but you can tell that they are pretty cheap. I currently use it as a monitor for my desktop and a TV for gaming and Netflix on my Xbox and I have had no issues. 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
BeautifulPros: Great TV. I bought this for my dorm, and looks amazing. And the headphone audio out jack allows me to hook up my computer speakers, which are now my dedicated TV speakers =] Cons: I don't know if it was due to my speakers (Bose Companion II) and the magnets inside, but my screen became discolored in the lower corners, where my speakers were placed. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Not bad at all.Pros: Works perfectly. Very good picture quality. Feather light weight. Extremely low power use, 12-18 watts. Cons: None Other Thoughts: Power use and weight did matter here since I installed it in my boat. Based on those two, it's easily best-in-class. 0 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Great TVPros: It is loaded with features & you can't beat the price. Cons: None for me. Other Thoughts: I don't watch much TV, only really want to catch sports now & then. 0 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |

Michael John Neill's Genealogy website. Things that cross my path, general research suggestions, and whatever else ...with a little bit of attitude. I don't post "news" just to post it, never post a press release (edited or otherwise), don't feign excitement, and pretty much say what I think.
28 August 2007
FTM2008 Suggests I not use the word "county"
Because it adds clarity is why.
I entered my own birth place in FTM as "Carthage, Hancock County, Illinois." FTM's suggestion was "Carthage, Hancock, Illinois."
However, when I entered my grandmother's place of death "Prairie Township, Hancock County, Illinois" FTM suggested "Prairie City, Hancock, Illinois." If there is a Prairie City in Hancock County, I have never heard of it and am curious as to where it is. Actually many of my relatives were born and died in Prairie Township and that is what I am entering in my database.
Family Tree Maker 2008 has never heard of Harmony Township in Hancock County, either. It suggested "Harmony, Hancock, Illinois." Frankly I think this implies that there is a village in Hancock named Harmony and it also implies more precision for a location than I may have. I intend also for those rural vital events where I only have a township name to include the word "township" as a part of the place name.
Family Tree Maker 2008 couldn't find Northeast Township in Adams County, Illinois---it's right there in the northeast corner of the county. It wasn't too keene on Keene Township in Adams County either, again insisting on dropping the "township" part of the place name.
If you think about it for a minute, whenever one refers to a county in the United States, the word "county" is a part of the name. I was born in Hancock County. I live in Knox County. One would rarely hear someone say "I was born in Hancock." Or maybe I'm just not listening closely.
I understand the theory behind the place name concept in FTM 2008. But I've had enough theory myself to know that practice is different.
Family Tree Maker 2008 suggests "Des Moines, Iowa" as the location when I enter in "Des Moines County, Iowa." How many people will know that (in FTM 2008) "Des Moines, Iowa" refers to the COUNTY of Des Moines (along the Mississippi River) and not the CITY of Des Moines (located more centrally within the state)?
I will continue to enter as much precision into my locations as necessary and will continue to use the words "county" and "township." I wish FTM's list of place names had done the same.

I wholeheartedly agree. Here in Virginia, however, one often hears:
"I moved from Augusta to Rockbridge"-
the word county being understood. - 11:49 AM
- Greg said...
This is a perfect example of why FTM is, has been, and always will be the domain of genealogy beginners. It's not a bad thing to be a beginner, but it is a shame that so many of you bloggers and authors continue to serve up article after article on FTM at the expense of better genealogy programs. I'm sure a large percentage of us started out using FTM, but it continues to be woefully lacking in power, useful extensibility and flexibility. So, we (hopefully) move on to beefier programs such as Legacy, RootsMagic or TMG. How about some coverage of programs that don't treat you with kid gloves?
- Michael John Neill said...
I appreciate the honest comments. There are a lot of beginngers who start out with FTM. Many learn one program and never migrate or experiment with others.
I am going to choose a few other genealogy software programs and begin discussing my experiences with those as well. The commentary will focus on smaller genealogy projects, using the software to organize, collect, etc. Our discussion will not focus on managing huge amounts of genealogical data.
Suggestions for programs to discuss or feature are welcomed and can be sent to me off the blog at firstname.lastname@example.com
Thanks! - 2:09 PM

You obviously don't have koumpounophobia.
Ask Sidney Jean a question
Hi everyone my name is Sidney, I make jewelry out of vintage and new buttons. One day I was looking through my Grandma's buttons and got the idea to make earrings, so I bought the supplies and made myself over 20 pairs. Then one day I was looking on etsy for vintage buttons and came across button necklaces. I wanted one really bad but didn't want to spend over $30 so that night I went out and bought what I needed to make my own with my Grandma's buttons. They came out really cute so I decided to make more! LOTS MORE! I'm going to bring them to craft shows, charge the price I would want to pay for them myself (way less then $30 lol). From earrings to necklaces I made pendants and pins, they're all completely different, unique, funky and beautifully awesome! I hope you enjoy them as much as I do, I'm calling my little buisness SidneyJean (my first and middle name). Jean is also my Grandma's middle name so I thought that would be perfect. I am selling my jewelry at Geeky Mamas in Cerritos mall, if you have any questions feel free to e-mail me at email@example.com or hit the button below :-D AND for those of you who didn't know, Koumpounophobia is the fear of buttons...

Always a good spot for Thai. Eat in or takeaway. Located in the heart of Terrigal close to nightspots.
Always a good spot for Thai. Eat in or takeaway. Located in the heart of Terrigal close to nightspots.
I had two dinners in three days here. The duck curry was delicious with me llicking the plate. The Moo Yang was tasty but missing some veggies. The restaurant looked like it started its life as a German restaurant and the CD playing both nights was not quite what I remember from Thailand, but the service was great and the... More
I took a friend to Terrigal Thai for her birthday and we were very disappointed. The service was terrible with only one poor waitress on who was confused, did not acknowledge us until 5 minutes after we sat down and when we were served, did not know any of the dishes on the menu. When our entrees came out my... More
Went here for a change from our usual, what a mistake. Waited 20 minutes for a drink, to be told they needed to go the other restaurant to get our drinks, who would have thought 2 coronas would be so hard. Entrees were terrible, picture frozen veggies with chicken mince in a pastry case bought from Coles. Chicken sticks were... More
Good food good prices. Not a bad place to go for dinner always good food. No views or anything butnwe like the location for takeout you can run in from the back so it's quite convenient
Flavours were lovely but the meat was overcooked and tough so was very disappointed, did expect a little better
So, glad we stumble on this restaurant.. The food was great, the staff extremly friendly and the price was even better..
This restaurant never fails! The quality of the food is always consistent! Beautiful location and great atmosphere! Love the black lounges intimate and friendly service!
We'd walked past Terrigal Thai a few times and it was always full. When we decided to try it there was a wait of 40 minutes for a table, so we sat at a table on the footpath and enjoyed a glass or two of the house wine (not to be sneezed at!). The rice paper rolls were fresh, crisp... More
I live locally and have always selected the alley Terrigal Thai for my family weekly takeway dinner. Have also eaten in on many occasions over the past 10 years. The food is consistently very good and great value. Love the duck red curry! It does have an old style feel and homely atmosphere but can get very busy on weekends... More

Steve Malanga and I talked about the conflict of interest between reforming broken state pension systems and the legislator's own benefits packages [WSJ Article], but we almost didn't.
I arrived at the radio station about 11am central time already forming that afternoon's show in my head as I walked up to my cubicle. Suddenly, I realized I had mixed up my schedule and was an hour late for of an interview I had scheduled with Steven Malanga who writes about the economy and is former editor of Crain's New York Business, current editor of City Journal, and contributing writer for the Wall Street Journal, the New York Post, and RealClearMarkets.com.
I screwed up. I emailed his publicist apologizing for my mistake and now I had to come up with another segment for the show. The publicist got back to me saying Steve was still available if I called him ASAP. I decided I would call him, apologize and keep him on the line no more than 15 minutes. I felt rude asking for any more time than that, plus it was already a time crunch for me and would mean I was going to be 15 minutes late for an important presentation by my boss.
When I called Steve I was concerned that I had ruined the interview before it even got started. I couldn't tell if he was annoyed with me or not at the beginning of the conversation when I said hello but I plowed forward. Ultimately, the conversation went well. He gave us good information about the issue and related it locally by talking about former Chicago mayor Richard M. Daley and his 'side-eye' worthy benefits package. I even made Steve laugh at one point.
After the conversation aired I got a few messages from listeners who found the conversation to be interesting and informative. As for my boss' presentation… she waited until I was done to begin. On one hand, very considerate, on the other collective scowls from staff as I entered the meeting 15 minutes late.

One of the most beautiful and fascinating voices that has ever existed on this planet, her signature scat singing being second to none. This new file (another customer request) includes the Petition and Order for Probate, the 25 page will and a 4 page codicil.
GRATEFUL DEAD fans wasted no time in requesting this file. Garcia left a somewhat standard (but enlightening) 16 page will, to which we add the3 page Petition for Probate, as well as a copy of the two page death certificate. A must for DEAD fans (no pun intended).
Garcia's detailed autopsy report
can be found elsewhere in our catalogues
Easily one of Hollywood's most talented and tragic personalities, Miss Garland left a 4 page will signed Judy Garland Luft, being married to Sid Luft at the time. Lots of bequests, none of which came to pass as her estate was in the red for years. British death certificate included.
Marvin Gaye left no will. But from his sequestered file from the Los Angeles Superior Court Archives we have taken 40 pages of petitions, claims (and rejections thereof). Inventories, court orders, accountings, and the death certificate, making this a very complete file.
40's bandleader, plus a radio, film and TV actor, Harris was a principal of long standing among comedian Jack Benny's radio retinue, parlaying his popularity into his own radio series. His will is 6 simple pages, and to this we add the Order and Letters of Probate, plus a 6 page Waiver of Accounting and finally, a rather sad Inventory and Appraisement of his meager estate.
The will of Alice Faye
(Harris' wife of many years) can be found elsewhere in our catalogues.
Not much of a biographical nature need be said of this talented musician, hands down one of the two most talented that came from the Beatles. His Swiss Will, (but filed in the UK) is 6 pages to which we add the British Probate Registry's Probate cover sheet as well as the original death certificate. Interesting side note: a controversy arose in the days after Harrison's death, when it was revealed that his death certificate listed a bogus address; it turns out he had died at Paul McCartney's Los Angeles house, whose address they'd wanted to keep secret.
Harrison band mate John Lenon's last will and testament
can be found elsewhere ion our catalogues.
Rock and Roll Hall of Famer and shorter member of the Righteous Brothers, Hatfield died from what was later proven to be a cocaine overdose. Included in this 8-page autopsy report from the Kalamazoo County (MI) Medical Examiner are all the specifics, with the final opinion stating that Hatfield suffered a sudden, unexpected death due to acute cocaine toxicity.
The 60's rock phenomenon died intestate (without a will) in September of1970, and almost instantly the disputes over portions of his estate began. Included in this 38 page file are claims and counter claims, demands that Hendrix's library of raw audio tapes be released by his co-partners at Electric Lady Studios, paternity claims, an accounting of his estate at his death, and lastly, a copy of his estate tax return filed with the IRS in 1971. Another great file, and a must for Hendrix fans.
Al Hirt, (often affectionately referred to as "The Round Mound of Sound") racked up 21 Grammy nominations (winning in 1964 for his signature song, JAVA, and 50 albums (17 charted, four went gold, one platinum) in a career that spanned five decades. His will (filed in New Orleans, of course) is a simple two-pages, to which we add an additional 11 pages of petitions and affidavits.
Long on our list of customer requests, we were finally able to unearth these documents in the Surrogate Courts in Manhattan. The immensely talented Lady Day died intestate, so what we offer are 18 fact-filled pages of inventory and appraisement of her estate as well as claims pertaining to the same. This is an excellent package.
Easily one of our favorite files, added to compliment the
Richie Valens
file found elsewhere in this catalogue. Holly died intestate (without a will) but what we offer are 20 pages consisting of petitions and court orders pertaining to Holly's wrongful death, and an inventory and appraisement of his estate. Last but best is a petition by the estate's attorney pertaining to his belief that rock and roll was dead and all but buried (an effort to have Holly 's estate tax liability reduced). Death certificate also included.
Michael Jackson's last will and testament is a simple 5 pages in length, but that's only the beginning for this massive 140+ page file. Included are the initial filings, petitions, claims, proof of publication, as well as copies of the search warrants served on Jackson's Bel Air mansion and Dr. Conrad Murray's Houston storage unit. The wrangling between Jackson's executors and Katherine Jackson for control of the monstrous estate makes for interesting reading. Our favorite document is the claim by one Billie Jean Jackson that the LW & T filed was a forgery and that she was the mother and protector of the three Jackson children, thus the entire estate should go to her.
Michael Jackson's extremely detailed autopsy report can be found elsewhere in our catalogues
. Please note that due to its sheer size, this item cannot be used as a free document with our free wills deal. Our apologies.
Michael Jackson always insisted that his 1993 out-of-court settlement with Jordan Chandler, the boy who first accused him of molestation, was never an admission of guilt; confidential documents revealed that the singer paid his accuser, his family and their lawyer a total of $25 million. We offer the original complaint, the boy's narrative of the alleged sexual activity, and the redacted confidential agreement for the huge monetary settlement, for a total of 42 fascinating pages.
Jackson's last will and testament
as well as his
autopsy report
can be found elsewhere in our catalogues.
James, the ultimate funkmaster, rose to fame in the late 1970s and early '80s with songs like MARY JANE, GIVE IT TO ME BABY, and SUPER FREAK. His hedonistic lifestyle and longtime crack cocaine addiction caused irreparable physical damage (not to mention a stint in Folsom Prison) that eventually contributed to his death at age 56. This 31 page file includes James' 13 page will, the Petition for Probate, Proof of Publication and several pricey creditors' claims. Rick James' autopsy report can be found elsewhere in our catalogues.
Jennings, the "outlaw" singer, songwriter and guitarist, was in Buddy Holly's original band, and would have died that cold night in 1959 had he not given up his seat on the doomed airplane to The Big Bopper. This large (60 pages) includes Jennings will, his Trust agreement, the Petition for Probate, Notice of Publication, and affidavits from friends and loved ones (as witnesses) to the signing of his will.
This is a tough one. Just how do you describe Spike Jones? Composer? Songwriter? Band leader? However you remember Spike Jones, colorful, crazed and immensely funny certainly come to mind. This package includes his 15 page will, 4 pages of funeral information as well as a 2 page claim by his publicist. Death certificate included.
This is a file for which we have had a lot of requests, and were finally able to unearth it in the archives of the Marin County (CA) Courts. Included are Joplin's 11 page will (signed days before her accidental heroin overdose), Petition for Probate, Letters Testamentary, and claims against the estate. In addition to the two page death certificate are 15 pages of petitions, for and against the estate. A great file. You can find
Joplin's 16 page autopsy report
elsewhere in our catalogues.
Sultry song stylist Peggy Lee was a class act all the way to the end. Oscar nominated for PETE KELLY'S BLUES, she went on to kick the Walt Disney Company's ass in 1991 when she was awarded $2.3 million for unpaid royalties from video sales of LADY AND THE TRAMP. This 26 page file includes her will, Petition and Order for Probate, creditor's claims for a couple of monster hospital bills, plus a few other goodies.
A simple, dry 4 pages with a 2 page witness. Truly surprising in its simplicity and lack of warmth. One gets the feeling that Yoko was in the background on this one. Suggested reading: Fred Seaman's "John Lennon: The Last Days."
Lennon band mate George Harrison's last will and testament
can be found elsewhere ion our catalogues.
Alan Jay Lerner was the Oscar and Tony-winning composer, playwright and lyricist who penned such Broadway successes as "Camelot," "Brigadoon," My Fair Lady" and "Gigi." He left a 9 page will which we supplement with the 2 page Petition for Probate, the 2 page tax evaluation of his estate, as well as a copy of the death certificate.
The flamboyant one died of AIDS in February 1987, just days after drafting his 5 page will. Additionally, we include the 3 page Petition for Probate a single page Letters Testamentary, and the 2 page death certificate.
Liberace's rather bizarre autopsy report can be found elsewhere in our catalogues
LINDA McCARTNEY $15.00
Coupling photography with her love of rhythm and blues, McCartney specialized in capturing the character of the new musicians, the Beatles included, subsequently meeting her husband, Paul. Linda McCartney's will (filed in the US, but apparently not in the UK) is 19 pages and deals primarily with trusts and copyrights. Also included are 3 petitions to seal certain court records, filed by her brother, the executor of the estate.

Remember back in the 80's ?
Back then we had Al Gore on the weekend and nightly news programs grossly exaggerating the effects of the hole in the ozone layer over North America. He even went so far as to blame Bush 41 for the hole and cried about there being a hole over Kinibunkport Maine
So in the 80's the sky was falling according to Al Gore.
Then in 1987 we signed the Montreal Protocol ( still not ratified ) which was based on the hysteria that the ozone hole was going to swell to the point that we were going to have to be wearing tinfoil hats and dark sunglasses when we went outside. We passed anti CFC legislation and banned their you. We then replaced many of them with toxic substances, created shortages of refrigerants even though world wide production hasn't changed significantly by shifting to Asia primarily China and India. CFCs are still in use today on those countries.
Now we are learning that the hole in the ozone layer is most likely a natural phenomenon caused by primarily by sea generated chlorine radicals over the winter polar vortex at both poles, more extreme in the Southern Hemisphere.
Well much of the same is reoccurring with man made Global Warming hysteria which will dwarf the economic impact of the 80-90's from the same politically motivated science crowd as the ones who brought us the first false alarm.
Today we have a filthy rich Al Gore shouting the same hysteria along with Obama claiming we have to surrender our nations wealth and vitality on Cap and trade legislation.
The sky is not falling as so many want us to believe and "fool me once shame on you" fool me twice shame on me" comes to mind.

In the way great teaching artists are good listeners, those educators who would create more great teaching artists should listen to the current ones. Ask what they need, what has helped them. Ask again in a decade, and keep asking.
That theme resonated throughout a daylong forum called "Transforming Arts Teaching: The Role of Higher Education," held on May 11 at the Metropolitan Club in New York City. Some 150 arts leaders, heads of colleges and conservatories, and those who fund and support them listened to one another and to working teaching artists during the event, and found plenty to talk about during the breaks between panels.
The forum, on how teacher education colleges, conservatories, fine arts colleges and other higher education institutions can better prepare those who teach the arts to young people, was sponsored by the Dana Foundation. Weighing on the participants' minds were several changes that have occurred in recent years in the teaching of all arts to youngsters.
Most prominent among these changes have been the loss of teaching time for the arts as schools focus on math and reading (so their students can show more progress on standardized tests), and the small percentage of students who receive arts instruction from arts specialists.
David J. Skorton, president of Cornell University, who played jazz to support himself during college, opened the session by describing the "creativity, teamwork, planning, improvisation, and joy" of producing art, and made his point by playing excerpts of music from classic jazz to a new composition by a Cornell student.

St. Valentine, the patron saint of love, was executed in Rome and buried there in the 3rd century. Much later an Irish priest was granted permission to exhume his remains, and now his skeleton lies under a church in Dublin.
In 1835 an Irish Carmelite priest, Fr. John Spratt, used his Irish charm to convince then Pope Gregory XVI to dig up St. Valentine's remains and take them home as a gift to his fellow Irishmen and women.
Now love-seeking Irish turn up at his site every St. Valentine's looking for help in finding that special one.
"God has someone in mind for me, and I obviously haven't met him yet. So I just hope that Saint Valentine will assist me, that I will find him," said one female visitor on Friday.
Another said, "We just prayed to find the right one, and I believe I will be led to him when the time is right."
Read more St. Valentine's Day stories here
A single man stated, "I've tried everything, speed dating, online, the whole lot, maybe a prayer to St. Valentine might help."
A couple said they came back to pay homage because they met at the site four years ago and now plan to get married.
"This is our perfect place," said the woman who declined to give her name.
Meanwhile, the Whitefriar Street church in Dublin is celebrating St. Valentine's this weekend and glad to welcome all.
"It was not uncommon at the beginning of the 19th century for local churches around the world to be given relics taken from the catacombs in Rome," said Carmelite priest Chris Crowley.
Valentine, who was executed in the 3rd century for performing Christian marriages, has prompted the priests of the church where he is buried to celebrate the feast of love and happiness.
"So Valentine is with us and we're very happy to have him," Crowley told AFP.
Read more: Top ten Irish love sayings for Valentine's Day
In 1950 a statue and shrine was built to honor St. Valentine and placed in the church. As soon as people in Ireland realized that the saint of lovers was buried right under their noses they came flocking to the church to give up their amorous prayers to the saint.
Despite companies around the world cashing in on the romantic holiday, the Carmelite priests said they are staying well clear of the commercialization the holiday enforce,s and they plan to keep sales of Valentine memorabilia to a minimum.
"We do want to keep it on a level that it's not just 'Valentine's Day.' That would diminish the significance of the saint," said David Weakliam, another Carmelite priest.
Originally published in 2010.
One thing that caught my eye in this article is this: "A single man stated, "I've tried everything, speed dating, online, the whole lot, maybe a prayer to St. Valentine might help." I sympathize completely with that (single man" since I am in the same situation. I live in a too small studio apartment and am now more of a summer than a spring chicken. Circumstances and not choice led to my own situation. Anyway, may we all find the love of our life/lives well before a daisy grows out of our forehead(s). Today would be nice.

Eligibility, Fees & Services
university health services
How to Join Health Services
All students who pay the Campus Health Fee are eligible to be seen in the Health Services Primary Care Center. This fee is required of all undergraduate resident students and is automatically charged to all students living on campus as well as students living off campus. Off campus students may waive the Campus Health Fee by downloading the waiver and forwarding the signed form to Health Services. Signed waiver forms must be submitted to Health Services prior to October 3rd.
What Your Campus Health Fee Covers
Your Campus Health Fee pays for primary and specialty medical care on campus provided at the Boston College Health Services. (Please remember: it is not a health insurance policy.) Our services include the following:
- Routine Physical Examinations
- Special Services
- Allergy Services
- Diet and Nutrition Services
- Women's Health Services
- Immunizations
- Orthopedic Services
- Skin Services
The Primary Care Center provides both outpatient and inpatient services. The Center is located on the Chestnut Hill Campus in Cushing Hall. Our professional staff consists of primary care physicians, nurse practitioners, registered nurses and on-site specialty consultants.
Primary medical care is provided at the Outpatient Unit on the first floor of Cushing Hall by a staff of doctors, nurse practitioners and nurses. The Center operates on an appointment basis and if you call 617-552-3225 prior to 10 am same day appointments are often available. On weekday evenings, and on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays, care is provided by the nurse on duty at the Inpatient Unit . See Location and Hours for more specific information.
Our comfortable, 10 bed facility provides 24 hour care to students as needed. A doctor is on call 24 hours a day and makes daily rounds to see all patients. He or she makes arrangements for hospitalization when necessary, and follows patients who have been hospitalized. Inpatient services, including room, meals, most medications, doctor visits and nursing care, are covered by the Campus Health Fee with the exception of the Safety Observation Fee. Patients who are well enough may sometimes be given permission to leave during the day to attend classes.
Safety Observation Fee
Students who are transported to the Primary Care Center by BCPD and are admitted for observation due to alcohol consumption are charged the Safety Observation Fee of $125 to their student account. If a student seeks assistance for alcohol consumption on their own or accompanied by friends the Safety Observation Fee is not applied.
See Location and Hours for more specific information.
All students enrolled in University Health Services may receive one routine complete physical examination during their undergraduate or graduate study at Boston College. This examination is by appointment only. Women should specify whether they wish to have a gynecological examination and Pap smear, since this requires additional time. (Laboratory tests, including the Pap smear, are billed to the patient by the outside laboratory.) Please note that students who enter Boston College without the required pre-entrance physical examination may not use the above examination as a substitute.

Many routine gynecology services are provided by the primary care physicians and nurse practitioners. In addition, Women's Health services are available 5 days per week.

Pregnancy testing is available at the Primary Care Center. When tests are positive, University Health Services will assist the student, on request, with non-judgmental counseling.

See Immunization Requirements.
For orthopedic diagnosis and treatment. See Hours for Specialty Services.(by referral only)
For diagnosis and treatment of warts and related skin conditions. See Hours for Specialty Services. (by appointment)

World Cup Draw Is Doomsday Scenario For The United States
Walking out of the 2006 World Cup Draw in Germany, Bruce Arena knew that the United States' tournament was over before it even started.
Despite boasting a strong side that would climb into the top ten of the FIFA World Rankings, Arena knew that the draw had spit out an impossible task for the USA.
It was clear to the coach that the size and physicality of the formidable Czech Republic would leave the US reeling, and the athleticism of African side Ghana would present problems as well. A matchup with eventual champion Italy spoke for itself.
Draw Day was Doomsday for…

Boston doctor speaks out upon return from Libya
Tags: Thomas Burke Libya US consulate Chris Stevens
BOSTON (WHDH) -- A Massachusetts doctor spoke to 7News on Friday about the meeting he was supposed to have with the U.S. Ambassador that was killed in the attack on the U.S. consulate in Libya.
Dr. Thomas Burke returned to Boston on Thursday night after being airlifted out of Libya for his own safety. Burke, a doctor at Massachusetts General Hospital, had been in Libya for just a few days when Benghazi came under attack.
"The next morning at 10 o'clock the ambassador was coming to the hospital and planned to meet with us and go over what it was that we were embarking on," said Burke.
Burke heads the division of global health and human rights at Mass. General and had traveled to Libya to help rebuild the health care system. The doctor's team was actually talking to the ambassador's colleagues when protesters attacked the consulate.
"While they were on the phone we all heard the explosion and the attaché on the other end of the phone yelled and then hung up, said he had to go," said Burke.
U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens and three others, including Winchester native Glen Doherty, were killed. Burke was in his hotel just a mile or two away.
"We could hear deep explosions, heavy explosions," said Burke.
Burke got word the next morning about the deaths of the Americans. He said the Libyans he saw were deeply saddened.
"People came up to me and would take my hand into both of their hands. I somehow represented the United States and they just kept saying, 'I'm so sorry, I'm sorry,'" said Burke.
Burke had never met Stevens, but said the ambassador was highly respected in Libya as he and his team helped rebuild the country.
Burke said he left Libya a day earlier than he had planned to after leaders asked him to leave for his own safety.

I got my bottle the other day and started using it on Monday. I am not using this as part of a fat loss regimen, rather I am using it to improve my mood, focus, and energy. I have hit a terrible stretch of insomnia lately in which I get about 3-4 hours of "sleep" per day.
First impressions:
I took 2 caps at about 4:30 PM on Monday and I was drag ass tired. By about 5 PM, my mood and energy had improved considerably and I was motivated enough to go to practice for the first time since mid-July. After sparring and wrestling for about an hour, I went for a 3 mile run and still had much left in the gas tank, but I was too hungry to ignore the pangs.
Yesterday, I took it first thing in the morning and after about 30 minutes, I was not hungry anymore even though I had not eaten breakfast, yet. I finally force-fed myself after being up for about 90 minutes and hit the gym about 90 minutes later. Had a great arm/delt session, but I did not have time for cardio. I had class from 6:30-9PM and was awake and attentive the entire time, a first for me. I have borderline ADD and I was able to actually focus on class. Right now, this improvement is a double-edged sword, though, because I am dealing with a rough patch in my relationship with my GF and my mom has a host of issues.
All-in-all, this is a very promising supplement. I have always been a fan of sulbutiamine, but the addition of geranium really gives this a kick.

While most people do not really enjoy working out their legs, I feel just the opposite; for me, legs and shoulders day is something I really look forward to. Since I tend to workout once per day, this means I get to hit the legs twice per week (not including cardio or spin classes). I have always found that working out and growing the legs are key to me reaching my ultimate fitness goals. Think of the fish tank scenario. If you want the fish to grow, you need to give it room by providing it a larger swimming area. Similarly, if you want your body's muscles to grow, you cannot forget to workout the largest muscles in your body, your legs! I love pushing my legs to the limits, and they tend to be pretty strong, but this did not happen overnight. So, do yourself a favor or two and don't skip your leg workout days. Show them some love and attention; you will thank yourself later!

The Billy Mitchell Court-Martial
Courtroom sketches from aviation's Trial of the Century.
- By Rebecca Maksel
- Air & Space magazine, July 2009
On October 28, 1925, a young legal aide reported to a ramshackle warehouse at the foot of the Capitol building in Washington, D.C. He placed a stack of legal volumes on a scarred wooden table, then waited for the court-martial of Army Air Service Colonel William "Billy" Mitchell to begin. William H. Webb was fresh out of law school when chief counsel Frank Reid asked him to join the defense team. Barely mentioned in the hundreds of newspaper accounts of the trial, Webb nonetheless impressed a reporter at the Baltimore Evening Sun, who wrote: "[This] wizard of legal research...cannot be seen as he sits hunched behind a big pillar in the courtroom, and as he seldom even whispers, his presence is unnoticed by spectators; and yet, besides Representative Reid, chief counsel, he is probably the most important personage among the Mitchell warriors at the court-martial.... He is the pivot of the defense, and it was his nimble fingers that thumbed the thick legal volumes that Reid quotes so glibly."
Recognizing the significance of the trial, young Webb compiled scrapbooks of material about his experience: photographs, newspaper clippings, and courtroom sketches made by an unidentified artist. There's Major General Douglas MacArthur, looking impossibly young; a frowning Major General William Graves, who fought Communists in Siberia; even a drawing of American humorist Will Rogers, who attended the trial to support the defendant. (Mitchell had given Rogers his first airplane ride, and the two had become friends.) William Webb Jr. remembers his father talking about the court-martial for years afterward. "We would look at the scrapbooks and he would give us a general overview of the trial and the people involved in it." Webb Jr. donated the collection to the National Air and Space Museum in 1992, seven years after his father's death. "I just thought that would be the place to put it," he says. "Anybody who had an interest in the trial could come and look at the pictures, the newspaper articles, and so forth."
How his father came by the sketches is a mystery. Webb Jr. doesn't know who drew them, but thinks the artist may have been a woman. "My father was trying to capture as much as he could about the trial, and I think he felt the drawings added a little something to the scrapbook itself, so that's why he put them in," he says. Sketched by someone in the courtroom as the trial proceeded, the drawings are intimate snapshots of the participants. They have never been published, and have been seen only by those few who have researched the Museum's Mitchell collection.
The popular Colonel Mitchell was facing a court-martial for his controversial remarks to the press on September 5, blasting two military disasters: a bungled flight during which three Navy seaplanes failed to make it from the West Coast to Hawaii; and the crash of the Navy airship USS Shenandoah while flying over the Midwest on an ill-advised public relations tour. "These incidents are the direct result of the incompetency, criminal negligence and almost treasonable administration of the national defense by the Navy and War Departments," Mitchell stated. "The bodies of my former companions in the air moulder under the soil in America, and Asia, Europe and Africa, many, yes a great many, sent there directly by official stupidity."
Within days, the War Department charged Mitchell with violating the Ninety-sixth Article of War, which covered "all conduct of a nature to bring discredit upon the military service."
At the court-martial, Reid—who took the case for free, hoping it would make him a national figure—argued that Mitchell's Constitutional right to free speech trumped his duties as an officer. Reid praised his client's warnings as patriotic, concluding with a flourish, "Rome endured as long as there were Romans; America will endure as long as there are Mitchells."
The prosecution, however, argued that in the military, free speech would lead to chaos. Claimed the trial judge advocate: "A private can berate his captain before his company, the captain can criticize and ridicule his major before his battalion and the major can lampoon his colonel…. Discipline and control under such a view of law would vanish and the Army become a mob."
The trial was front-page news. Each morning, nearly 500 spectators lined up outside the warehouse hoping for one of the few courtroom seats reserved for the public. Society matrons, reported the Los Angeles Times, were dismayed at their reception. "Luxuriously equipped limousines drew up along the curbing. Uniformed footmen jumped to open the doors and assist the occupants to the pavement.... The prominent as well as the socially unknown were told in regular doughboy fashion to 'fall in' line and await their turn to be admitted."

I like reading your stories a lot. One unquie thing about this incident was that in 1942, Billy was cleared of the charges and posthumously promoted to Major General.

Can you give me all the info on what billy mitchell said about the bombing of pearl harbor, the time , the date, how it was going to happen. EDITORS' REPLY: We aren't able to conduct research for individual reader inquiries. Perhaps a reader can help you out.
Posted by dale trujillo on January 27,2010 | 05:09 PM
Mr Randall,
Mitchell was NOT cleared of the single charge of which he had been convicted (insubordination). The request was made in the 1950s by his son and the US Air Force would not clear him. Probably because it had been a fair trial and he really was guilty.
Posted by Gary Null on February 23,2010 | 07:10 PM
We have a member of my wife's family who has told us that a gentleman by the name of Hornstein was one of Mitchell's defense team of attorneys. This relative that is relating the story to us & has shown us photos and a letter addressed by Mitchell to him. We have not been able to validate this piece of information because we are unable to research the names of the Mitchell defense team. Unfortunately, this relative (a WW II combat pilot) is not in the best of health. We would love to have an opportunity to validate this information if it is at all possible and pass it on to the rest of the family.

With regard to the question about Mitchell's prediction of the attack Pearl Harbor, Mitchell said (in l925) that "one fine Sunday morning at 7:30 a.m." Japanese planes would attack Pearl Harbor. Although the attack began at 7:55 a.m., the first Japanese planes actually arrived at 7:30 but waited for the rest before beginning the attack. Mitchell also predicted the attack on Clark Field in the Phillipines, saying the Japanese would attack at 10:30 a.m. The Japanese actually did plan to attack at 10:30 but were delayed two hours by weather.
Posted by Stefan Schreier on June 8,2011 | 09:20 PM
Billy Mitchell was correct in his predictions of the sneak attack on Pearl Haarbor, December 7, 1941 by the Japanese, who were allegedly our "friends" at the time. Mitchell refused the order to "apologize" stating he would not apologize for telling the truth. Seems to me a young Major ram-rodded to hang him (Douglas MacArthur) ironic. Next time you're in DC admiring the beautiful cherry trees along the Tidal Basin; remember they were a gift from our "friends" the Japanese. Worse yet; our President FDR had word of the attack & said nothing. Politics as usual. It was also the Smithsonian who was against restoration of the "Enola Gay" the B-29 that dropped the first Atomic Bomb to end the war & save many American lives. That was the year I canceled my Smithsonian memberships. Looks like the Socialists are still running Smithsonian. Of course this won't see print because truth is not tollerated. Next year, real Americans will take our country back.
