CoreLogic: Number Of Underwater Homes In Chicago Metro Area Rose Last Quarter
I keep hearing all these positive things about the U.S. housing market these days. But closer to home, bad news is still surfacing. CoreLogic, a leading residential property information, analytics, and services provider, released its Q1 2013 Equity Report this morning, and while nationally the news is good (from the accompanying news release):
Approximately 850,000 more residential properties returned to a state of positive equity during the first quarter of 2013, and the total number of mortgaged residential properties with equity currently stands at 39 million. The analysis shows that 9.7 million, or 19.8 percent of all residential properties with a mortgage, were still in negative equity at the end of the first quarter of 2013 with a total value of $580 billion. This figure is down from 10.5 million*, or 21.7 percent of all residential properties with a mortgage, at the end of the fourth quarter of 2012.
Locally, the equity report sucks.
CoreLogic found that as part of the largest 25 U.S. metropolitan areas, the percentage of mortgaged properties in negative equity in the Chicago/Joliet/Naperville, Illinois-area stood at 34.2 percent at the end of the first quarter.
Noting that this came out to approximately 519,000 homes, Chicago Tribune real estate reporter Mary Ellen Podmolik pointed out this morning on their website:
That compares with more than 511,000 underwater properties, or 33.7 percent of homes with a mortgage, at the end of December.
Meaning, around 8,000 more homes were underwater (more owed on the mortgage than the property's value) quarter-over-quarter.
It will be really interesting to see the forthcoming CoreLogic Q2 2013 Equity Report, considering all the optimism I encountered about local housing market conditions while house-hunting these past few months.
You can read the entire CoreLogic news release on their website here.

Gay humanists condemn Vatican's stance on universal decriminalisation
Post your comment
Comments on this article are now closed.
Reader comments
Perhaps the Vatican could ask the United Nations to revoke the charter on human rights. After all, they would not want to force other countries to stop torture, beating women, stoning children to death, committing acts of genocide, killing mentally retarded people, denying people a livelihood because they have the "wrong" colour skin and other such acts that silly people have struggled for over thousands of years.
Well, that's par for the course. They are not that keen on women's rights either or left wing governments for that matter. (Ever on the side of the right wing conservatives and fascists.) It's about time the Vatican was taken down a peg or two. We could do with a 21st century "Martin Luther"
There goes the Roman Empire continuing to force their sexual obsessions on societies that need to end the oppression of their people!
You're totally right, Eugene. How can anyone in their right mind be against ending discrimination? I think I've answered my own question there… And the Churches of the world wonder why attendance is falling? Yes, that's right – let's all pick on minorities and turn our backs when they're being victimised or killed. If that isn't evil, I don't know what is.
I'M Italian. Fortunately, tomorrow it will be a protest in vatican's square in Rome(I suggest you to follow it by newspaper). Italian's blogs are splitted that's incredible, cause for me is so evident the True. This is the real face of church. Shame on them.
The real great job doing by Vatcan is louding voice against gay to cover up the sin of their thousands and thousands paedophile priests all over the world.
If the world don't stop and go back to separate religeous and states, Vatican will be a drop of oil on the piece of paper, will take over politic and than army as shown in history.

* I run a private FTD Patient Support Group on Facebook. The groups for FTD Patients Only and is open to those with a firm FTD diagnosis. The support group is a place where those with FTD can gather in a positive environment and realize there not alone. It's also a source of accurate information which is rare in the quick changing world of FTD. The director of AFTD, Sharon Denny is a permanent guest member. AFTD has been kind enough to open up there medical board to answer member questions. Please email me at firstname.lastname@example.com to join.
Been shedding tasks for a while now. Long gone are the days of checking this blog multiple times a day how many have visited and what countries there from. How exciting it was reaching milestones of visitors, receiving all your supportive emails and winning multiple awards. Just realized this blog reached 150,000 visitors. Felt good turning the tables on an insidious disease that sucks the life out a person and making myself a vehicle for awareness and hope to many.
10 years ago FTD entered my life. Forced to leave work on disability being misdiagnosed as bipolar I just disappeared from the 17+ year career I had. My career started in NYC and culminated in Seattle. Then I just disappeared. Never returned calls from friends or associates. My absence was a mystery to many.
Some months ago I was contacted by an old colleague and close friend Dave Ashcraft who had looked me up on the web. I used to manage a string of independent dealerships in North America for a Japanese business equipment manufacturer. Dave is now the VP of of the largest independent dealership in the country, Witt Company, that has dealerships across the Western US including Phoenix. A few weeks ago I was contacted by the President and owner of the company Bill Witt. Bill wanted to come visit me in Phoenix. We met at the Starbucks I frequent. I worked closely with Bill for years and years. You couldn't find a fairer, more honest and astute businessman anywhere. He was also a huge handful to work with. Complicated, but you'd be hard pressed to find a finer individual.
Bill entered Starbucks and his first words were, "Howard Glick, the last time I was with you was March 2x, 200x at the Metropolitan Grill in Seattle. You took me and Gail (wife) out for dinner and bought us a bottle of Jordan wine. Told us you were sick and had to leave Riso." Then I was gone.
Bill rehashed mutual colleagues and friends across the country that I've not thought of in years. Some I remembered, some I didn't. Everyone I used to know was doing well in one form or another. It was good to hear. Bill also discussed the years I worked with him. Told me I was the best manufacturers rep he had from the company I worked for and that I always had his companies interests in the forefront - even if it caused me to have problems with my company. I broke down a couple of times. Tried to explain FTD. Tried to explain how I rarely leave my apt., curse out old ladies without realizing I'm doing anything wrong, frequently eat spoiled food and make inappropriate sexual remarks. Also that I now have frequent swallowing/choking issues and balance issues. Explained how I lost my disability from Unum because I was misdiagnosed which has me living now on the poverty line. Bill asked about longevity. I sort of lied and told him I'll be around for a long time. No one has a crystal ball with FTD, but FTD is marinating nicely and I know my time has become limited at best. At least I'm hoping to move on soon.
Bill told me if there was an emergency and I needed some financial help, not to hesitate to call and actually called someone at the company in front of me to let them know if I called to send out help. I was deeply moved at the gesture, but anyone who knows me knows that I'd be homeless before I'd make that call. Bill said he would visit me on his periodic trips in. There are no words to describe how much Bill's visit meant to me. It's soul shaking what I've lost since we worked together. Sitting here at Starbucks crying as I type. 10 years ago I had a consistent six figure income, kids, and a woman I was madly in love.
Yesterday I received an email from Dave Ashcraft from the same company in Seattle saying he would be visiting me in 4-6 weeks. "You were one of the best salesman I've ever known". I'm looking at my schedule and I'm going to plan on coming down to Phoenix for a long weekend in the next 4 - 6 weeks. I'll let you know the exact dates."
Was recently contacted by a childhood friend. I haven't seen Peter Herzog since I left for college 35+ years ago. Peter came from Boca Raton, Fl. last week to look and possibly move to AZ. Peter's son was amazed how we just sort of clicked again like many of us NYC Washington Heights alum do. While we were in the car I pointed to a girl and mentioned what a great ass she had. Both Peter and his 23 yr. old son berated me that she looked really young. Age just didn't click, didn't cross my FTD corroded mind. Of course I'm aware now that she was just a kid and am once again on the edge of tears as I'm typing.
FTD Cocktail -
1 part Hypersexuality,
1 part No Filter
1 part Apathy
= Inappropriate sexual remarks, comments and behaviors that the FTD'er is unaware of.
I check out all woman indiscriminately, no matter what the age. FTD has made me mixture of hypersexuality, no filter - causing inappropriate remarks and apathy - not caring at the time I make those remarks. People write to me about there loved ones that aren't aware like I am and how lucky I am. I'd be a lot luckier if I was dead.
Problems with my neighbors continue with me being the neighborhood nut. Haven't been in a fight since I was 13, have almost come to blows multiple times in as many months. Requested from the management that I switch apt. They said no. Came home to find SWAT in my two story building. The police are always around. Took away one problem neighbor below me for 1st degree attempted murder, kidnapping, assault + many other charges. Police interviewed me for an hour. Heard he's facing life in prison. Guess my apt. community is nice if your into crack and crazies. The online reviews call it the "Scottsdale Slums." What can I do, I'm trying to live and stay alive. Pain is constant with frequent continuous headaches and severe arthritis. Have stomach issues because I constantly eat what's ever laying around. Don't leave the house much because I'm me and find myself in a life and death battle with FTD's No. 1 enemy, depression.
Terri and I split up. Its obvious that I'm declining was getting to rough. I downgraded us to friends. No one can ever find a more loving, caring and loyal person to be with. Neither of us expected my health decline to speed up like it has. I'm not selfish enough to put her through FTD hell. We did have spectacular times while it lasted. I'm constantly having issues with swallowing/choking as well as recent balance issues that are getting worse. If I was a horse, I wouldn't be typing right now :-)
I live on the 2nd floor and balance issues are causing it to become extremely hazardous going up and down the stairs. This has been happening for a while but realization that I might get hurt is a very scary and real fear. If I get hurt, I'm finished. Have not one contact of person to call. When I was with Peter last week I almost got run over because I couldn't manage to get up on the vehicle we were getting on. It almost backed over me thinking I was inside. Screams saved me. Don't know how to describe the feel in of having restless leg syndrome from head to toe.
Think I mentioned earlier that I just signed a new lease :-) Yesterday I went back in and asked them out of it because of my health issue. They are going to let me know, but know about FTD and that I'm pretty sick. I'm thinking of moving to a different community where there are a different element of people. I can't deal with the criminal element, drugs etc. Only problem is my rent will go from $700 to $900. Can't afford to move and can't afford to stay. I'm very, very, very frugal with money and am in the negative each month. No reason to budget since I only have what I have and there is nowhere to cut back. Will never beg or ask friends for money. For me money is like musical chairs. When the music stops and there's no seats, game is over and I check out. Won't go homeless or assisted living route. Don't mind my FTD rant. Welcome to my world.
Happiness is overrated and I can't remember the last time I was really happy. Bill Witt and Peter Herzog gave me wonderful reminders and glimpses of my life gone by. I've had a Life. A wonderful life. No regrets in life. I've 2 wonderful children I rarely see and still have the opportunity to continue on somehow and do work that will make a difference in peoples lives.
Somehow I'll try and keep carrying on. Will try and keep this blog going and return to filming for Howards Brain, the FTD documentary that I've close to 300 FTD hours filmed. Filmed 45 minutes a few weeks ago. First time I filmed in months. lol This is my first blog in months. Guess I've people out there, but have never felt so alone in all my life.
FTD causes behavioral issues that are devastating to FTD'ers and the loved ones around them. Depression and FTD go hand and hand. Many take anti-depressants, anti-anxiety, antipsychotics etc. to help level the playing field. I take none. From this you see my highs and lows. Functioning that permits me to write this blog, run my 2 support groups and do what I do. My life would be easier flat from mind dulling drugs and there's nothing wrong with chemical help to make an FTD'ers life easier. But that's not me. I don't do "easy". Never have, never will.
Been sick a lot lately with my stomach. Just keep eating bad food. Made tuna at home. Don't know if mayo was bad, tuna left out etc. Was pretty sick. Of course it was in the fridge and ate it again days later. Same result, sick again. Often leave food out and eat it days later without paying attention. I know it's not good, but don't even think or care. Just hungry and it. Eat out mostly to try and keep from getting sick. Usually cheap mex etc. Glad I've FTD or I'd think I was losing my mind.
We often hear those with FTD are unaware there's anything wrong with them. People around me still don't realize there's anything wrong with me most of the time. I think :-) Well, FTD has gone from lurking in the recesses of my mind with an invisible attack, to an all out frontal physical assault. Am hoping to bounce back. Almost didn't make it this morning, but an early email from the director of AFTD got me going.
Routine, routine, routine. 7 days away. It's the only way I know to keep going. So hard now. Have been back at Starbucks for about a week now. Have also filmed 1.5 hrs for "Howard's Brain" documentary. Am going to fight like hell and return to my 7/7 - 7 days a week, 7am Starbucks routine. Will do my best to get back to consistent blogging, though I've no clue if..........
On another front, preliminary discussions are now under way for an FTD group home in the Phoenix area. Those with real interest in this please contact me at firstname.lastname@example.com I'm also going to be the guest speaker at the "Professional Association of Senior Referral Specialists" later this month and this will be one of the topics I will be discussing.

I want to thank everyone that has helped me with your support over the last years. Your kind communications and financial help has enabled me to do a few good things in this lifetime. Will try my best to carry on rocking and rolling.
Thank you to those that have sent me letters, gift cards, Starbucks, cash etc. They are deeply appreciated. I've dedicated my life to FTD awareness and advocacy. I live alone with no caregiver. I'm not starving, but am in the minus everything month and cannot afford the medical help I need. For those that want to help, there is a yellow Donation button on right top of the page. You can choose a recurring donation each month of any amount, which I would be eternally grateful for. You can also mail to my address below with gift cards, checks or cash.

"He's by far the best-qualified man, but no. I really don't," Bush told Matt Lauer when asked if she wanted to see Jeb Bush make a White House bid. "I think it's a great country, there are a lot of great families, and it's not just four families or whatever. There are other people out there that are very qualified, and we've had enough Bushes."

St. Louis, MO (Sports Network) - Pedro Alvarez hit a grand slam in the first inning, Jeff Karstens gave up two runs in seven strong frames and the Pittsburgh Pirates took down the St. Louis Cardinals, 7-3, in the middle installment of a three-game series.
Karstens (1-2) gave up four hits while striking out seven and walking two for the Pirates, who have won four in a row. Drew Sutton, Neil Walker and Clint Barmes each had an RBI.
Pittsburgh center fielder Andrew McCutchen left the game in the bottom of the seventh due to soreness in his left wrist. He sustained the injury while sliding for a fly ball in the bottom of the third.
"Sometimes it may not go the way you want it to go, you may get injured," McCutchen said. "But it's part of the game."
Lance Lynn (10-4) allowed six runs on seven hits over five innings to take the loss for the Cardinals, who have dropped three straight. Carlos Beltran, Jon Jay and Matt Holliday each knocked in a run.
Alvarez's grand slam in the first proved to be the difference. With two outs, McCutchen and Garrett Jones singled and Neil Walker walked to load the bases. Alvarez stepped to the plate and smacked Lynn's offering over the wall in right.
"I didn't get it done in the first inning and it cost us the whole game," Lynn said.
The Cardinals managed to get two runs back in the third. Tony Cruz led off with a double off the wall in center and moved to third on a sacrifice bunt. After Skip Schumaker walked, Cruz scored when Jay grounded into a fielder's choice. Jay stole second and raced home on Holliday's single to make it 4-2.
Pittsburgh scored a pair of runs in the fifth to make it a four-run game again. Jose Tabata doubled and Jones walked prior to Walker's RBI double down the left-field line. Alvarez was intentionally walked to load the bases with one out. Barmes plated a run when he grounded into a fielder's choice.
Beltran's RBI double in the eighth cut the gap to 6-3, but Sutton drove in a run in the ninth.
Jared Hughes recorded the final four outs of the game for the Pirates to pick up his first career save.
Karstens improved to 2-2 in eight career games (seven starts) against the Cardinals...Lynn fell to 2-1 in four career games (three starts) against the Pirates...Pittsburgh improved to 4-2 on a seven-game road trip...The Cardinals recalled pitcher Maikel Cleto and purchased the contract of pitcher Barret Browning from Triple-A Memphis. Browning made his MLB debut Saturday with two scoreless innings of relief, while Cleto pitched a spotless eighth. In addition, Pittsburgh optioned pitchers Eduardo Sanchez and Sam Freeman to Memphis and transferred pitcher Kyle McClellan to the 60-day disabled list...Beltran has set a Cardinals season-best by recording an RBI in eight consecutive games.
Oh, how the mighty can fall.
Seven weeks after his involvement in an accident that took the life of Kevin Ward Jr. during a sprint car race on a dirt track in Upstate New York, Tony Stewart continues to deal with emotions surrounding the tragic incident.
The Chicago Bears signed Teddy Williams off of Arizona's practice squad and waived linebacker Terrell Manning on Wednesday.
The San Francisco Giants will have 10 pitchers available for Wednesday's National League wild card game against the Pittsburgh Pirates.
With NBA Media Day barely behind us, it's perfect fair and reasonable to already speculate as to which coaches will be fired soonest.
The aging core of Datsyuk, Zetterberg, Niklas Kronwall and Johan Franzen will have to stay healthy if Detroit plans on making its 24th straight postseason appearance during 2014-15.

Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman appeared on NFL Network's NFL GameDay Morning show as a guest analyst and had a couple of interesting quotes the NFL Network passed along: "You have to put him in there…If you're basing that judgment off of winning, how he plays in big games and clutch moments and coming through, I think you have put him in that discussion." – Sherman on if Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson should be in the 'best quarterback in the league' conversation "I hope we see them again.

The Seahawks are off this weekend, one of six teams with a bye (including the Broncos and two other NFC West teams, the Rams and Cardinals). But there are a dozen other NFL games this weekend, and I've made my picks below. As you can see, I am indeed predicting a loss for the 49ers and a 1-3 start for the team that entered the season looming as Seattle's biggest threat to get back to the Super Bowl. But if the Eagles pull it off, it might be time to switch the focus to Philadelphia being the team that the Seahawks might have to worry the most about in the NFC --- and keep in mind that Seattle...
Look for near-desperate 49ers to hand Eagles their first loss.
Seahawks move past Broncos, into No. 1 spot. Cardinals leap to No. 5.
How will an early bye affect the Seahawks late in the season?
Seahawks Blog | Seattle Times Sep 27, 2014
Here are some random thoughts and observations on the Seahawks through three games for a slow Saturday: The Seahawks aren't flawless, even though they still are probably the most talented team in the NFL. As much as anything, the loss to San Diego revealed that the Seahawks' defense, while supremely talented, isn't good enough to coast on that talent alone. The Seahawks missed too many tackles, and they didn't look to play with the same doggedness and intensity that defines their best performances. When they aren't dialed up, they are susceptible to getting picked apart. Fast forward a week...
Seahawks Insider | Tacoma News-Tribune Sep 27, 2014

Check out: "Amistad", an exhibition of new work by painter Thierry Alet at Standpipe Gallery
Born and raised on the French Caribbean island of Guadeloupe, Alet received his graduate training at Martinique's Institut regional d'art visuel. Having acquired a considerable reputation both in France and the Caribbean, he established a studio in New York in the mid-1990s and his work has since been commissioned and exhibited throughout the world.
Alet's highly recognizable peinture manuscrite forefronts the power and ambiance of handwritten text. Working on a large scale, his murals and canvases are rigorously covered with tightly ranged rows of lettering, often citing significant passages from literature or oration. In its dimension as public speech, his work requires viewers to confront issues of socio-political and cultural import. His efforts, however, are just as significantly a meditation on the deeply human gesture of manual inscription itself.
Amistad: New Work by Thierry Alet, will open on Thurs. April 14. A public reception will be held that evening from 6 – 8PM. Regular gallery hours are Wed. through Fri., 12 – 6PM, and Sat. 10AM – 6PM.

CENTRAL CITY, Ky. (5/28/13) – Central City Fireman Brandon Devine found a unique way to remember the fallen heroes honored on Memorial Day.
Devine chose to raise the red, white and blue high over the middle of Second Street using a fire truck extension ladder.
"I just thought it was a good way to pay respect to all those we need to remember on Memorial Day weekend," Devine said.

The Canadiens will play host tonight to one of the hottest teams in the league right now, the Washington Capitals.
The Capitals are on a four-game win streak and have been able to turn things around after a rocky start to the season as they sit at the top of the Southeast Division.
Rene Bourque returns to the lineup after missing the last 21 games with a concussion. Bourque will be playing on the fourth line with Travis Moen and Jeff Halpern. Michel Therrien said that they need to be cautious when it comes to integrating Bourque back into the game.
"It's one thing to be in shape and it's another thing to be in game shape," Therrien said this morning. Max Pacioretty left practice yesterday to tend to his minor lower body injury. Pacioretty took a puck off his foot last Wednesday in Philadelphia but said that his injury isn't related to that.
The Habs' major concern tonight will be to try and limit the chances of Alex Ovechkin, who has 23 points in his last 14 games. The Canadiens are undefeated against the Southeast Division. The last time they faced the Capitals, they beat them 4-1 back on January 24, but this time around the Habs know they are facing a completely different Capitals team.

Scientists have found that sea ice actually removes CO2 from the atmosphere with the help of frost flowers and as it retreats, more gas may be released.
While rising temperatures and shifting precipitation may get most of the attention, climate change can also impact wind patterns which, in turn, could alter predator-prey relationships.
Scientists are constantly taking inspiration from animals in order to create new materials. Now, they've managed to create a new adhesive inspired by the sticky proteins that mussels and barnacles excrete to allow them to cling to a hard surface--even underwater.
While climate change can benefit some locations, other areas are more at risk. Now, scientists have taken a look at which sections of the world's population are left most at risk to food shortages and extreme weather events.
As our climate continues to change and as carbon dioxide emissions continue to mount, scientists are becoming less and less optimistic about our chances to keep global warming below 2 degrees Celsius.

NEW YORK—Andy Roddick's career is over.
The 2003 champion lost to Juan Martin del Potro on Wednesday in four sets in a fourth-round match in the U.S. Open. The 30-year-old Roddick surprised the tennis world last Thursday when he announced that the tournament would be his last.
When it ended with a forehand error at Arthur Ashe Stadium, the American star buried his face in a towel, tears in his eyes as del Potro saluted him.
The seventh-seeded del Potro, the 2009 U.S. Open champ, won 6-7 (1), 7-6 (4), 6-2, 6-4 in a match spread over two days. Rain suspended play Tuesday night one point into a first-set tiebreaker.

A truck driver's brakes failed before he plummeted off the Otira Gorge near Arthur's Pass in the South Island, a coroner's inquest has heard.
Napier man Piki Lewis Jones, 34, died in the June 22, 2011, accident.
Senior Constable Simon Burbery, of the serious crash unit, said the brakes ''simply weren't working properly'' when Jones needed them to avoid the accident. In his report of the accident, Burbery said the truck had several ''excessively worn brake linings''.
Jones lost control and hit another truck from behind before falling over a steep slope above the Otira River. He died at the scene.
A month before, on May 20, his truck had been serviced by Intertruck Distributors. One of the mechanics, John Mulder, told the inquest today that the service included checking fluid levels, tyres and brakes.
At the time, Mulder noted that the brakes on the third and fourth axles would need ''relining'' before the truck passed a Certificate of Fitness (COF) test.
The truck's COF label had faded, and the mechanics at Intertruck thought it was due on June 3 - two weeks after the service. The COF was actually due on June 30 and the truck had not been returned for the work at the time of the accident. Between the May 20 service and June 22, the truck had driven more than 11,000 km.
Mulder said the truck was still safe to drive after the servicing, but that he ''was hoping as soon as the truck was available'' the required work would be done.
On Monday, the inquest heard from several truck drivers who said correct gearing was necessary to tackle the steep roads through Otira with minimal braking required.
Burbery said the gear box was too badly damaged from the accident to conclude whether Jones was in the correct gearing for the steep decline.
Jones was a ''floater'' driver for STL, so though he did not drive between Christchurch and Greymouth frequently - he was experienced in driving roads around New Zealand.
An autopsy showed that Jones had cannabis in his system. He also had evidence of a heart condition for which he had apparently been self-medicating.
On Monday the inquest heard that Jones had falsified his logbooks. STL was not prosecuted over the logbooks, Senior Constable Edwin Bell said.

Virtuoso performance enlivens …And Stockings for the Ladies: review
Brendan McMurtry-Howlett has impressive energy, bringing more than 20 characters to life in this one-man show.

Share via Email
. . . and Stockings for the Ladies
By Attila Clemann. Directed by Zach Fraser. Until Oct. 24 at the Toronto Centre for the Arts, 5040 Yonge St. 1-855-985-2728
There are several riveting stories at the heart of … and Stockings for the Ladies, a RustWerk ReFinery production now at the Toronto Centre for the Arts.
They are post-Second World War stories of courage and heroism, of kicking back against authority and doing what is right, rather than meekly following the official line.
This one-man show, directed by Zach Fraser and starring the talented Brendan McMurtry-Howlett, was a hit at the 2007 Toronto Fringe Festival and elsewhere and has now been brought back by the Harold Green Jewish Theatre to open its 2013-14 season.
Brought back, that is, with additional material, adding an extra 20 minutes or so to what was an hour-long show.
As sometimes happens, these Stocking stuffers make Attila Clemann's play seem bloated. The opening section is laborious and confusing, the transitions from story to story are somewhat awkward.
Pity. McMurtry-Howlett gives an impressive performance, breathing life into more than 20 characters, ranging from a TTC bus driver, several Canadian airmen and a Nazi doctor, to a long-suffering wife back home and her fretful brood of children.
Clemann has taken real family stories and other anecdotes and woven them into a lightly fictional story centring on two men — Squadron Leader Ted Aplin (Clemann's step-grandfather) and his colleague and sometimes unwilling cohort, Sgt. Daniel Friedman.
Together, they set up an illicit parcel service for the inmates of the notorious Bergen-Belsen concentration camp and, after running across the remarkable real-life woman Luba Tryszynska, throw a picnic for the 52 children she rescued from death.
Then there is the story of Hanka Diamond, a Jewish survivor crippled in an accident and given new life and hope when Aplin found a German surgeon to operate on her.
These tales in and around Bergen-Belsen are powerful and compelling. And Clemann — smartly — doesn't idealize any of these characters who are humanized by their quirks and flaws. However, the framing devices — in particular Friedman's interminable bus trip to Kipling Ave. — are less successfully handled by both playwright and director.
Stockings may not be seamless but its stories resonate. That, plus McMurtry-Howlett's virtuoso performance, add up to an evening well spent.

With snow falling in Memphis and lows in the 20s, warm sand and sun has never sounded better – perhaps why travel service Vacation Express today announced two new nonstop flights to Cancun and the Bahamas.
Vacation Express will fly out of Memphis International Airport weekly nonstops to and from Cancun May 19 through Aug. 4 using airline Aeromexico, and will fly multiple times a week to and from Grand Bahama Island Aug. 11 through Oct. 25 using BahamasAir, according to a release today.
The travel service is offering six-night packages for Cancun and four-night packages for Grand Bahama Island.

Hi, My grandmother was Gertrude Ida Tetzlaff. When I was a child she corresponded with cousins in Germany. As I remember they lived behind the Iron Curtain. she sent things like coffee but was never sure if it was received by them. Her father and mother made a trip from Wisconsin to Germany about 1886 during which time my grandmother's sister Mathilde was born. I have a photo taken in Berlin of some members of the family but do not know their names. Do you have any cousins in Wisconsin?

LostWinds maker unimpressed by iPhone games
David Braben, the mastermind behind classic sim Elite and puzzler LostWinds, has said that the iPhone's App Store is full of 'rubbish' games.
The veteran designer says Apple should be more picky about the titles given App Store approval, and that this will make it easier for the 'good' games to gain exposure on the burgeoning format.
"There's a little bit of a 'gate keeper' thing with Nintendo which raises the bar very slightly because you've got to have dev kits, but that's a good thing. Look at iPhone; there are so many games that aren't up to scratch, without being too negative about it. It's very hard to find the good stuff amongst the rubbish," Braben told CVG.
"Another thing I resent is applications or games that are designed to look like something else that's been successful and people accidentally buy them, or they're slightly cheaper and they assume they're getting a cheaper version or the same thing."
More iPhone news soon.
