Sci-Fi Saturdays This week on Sci-Fi Saturdays Jay takes a dip in a hot tub. Hot Tub Time Machine sounds like it could be a throw away comedy, but it actually had some pretty good themes surrounding time travel and reflecting on your past mistakes. Read his article on RetroZap.com. And make sure to play around with the interactive map on MCULocationScout.com. Plus, you can tune in to SHIELD: Case Files where Jay and Shua talk about great stuff in the MCU. Enjoy Movies! With the deepest respect we present some of the amazing women in Hollywood that entertain, fascinate, and inspire us. Whether they are playing a friend, an independent leader, or an action star, these women are phenomenal. Jay and Shua try to narrow down some of our favorite stars. It was a lot harder than it sounds. But we used our appreciation of their performance and their contributions to ideas and causes that affect the real world. This was only a short list of some great women. Who would you add to the list? Who would you pick for five of your favorite actresses? First person that emails me with the subject line, “You're gonna hear me roar” will get a special mention on the show. Let us know.

Promote Celtic culture through music at http://celticmusicpodcast.com/. WELCOME TO CELTIC MUSIC * Helping you celebrate Celtic culture through music. I am Marc Gunn. I'm a musician and podcaster. I share my love of Irish and Celtic music from around the globe with you. I want to introduce you to some amazing Celtic bands and musicians. You can find a link to all of the artists, along with show times and chapters for each song when you visit our website at celticmusicpodcast.com. You can also support this podcast on Patreon. Next Week: The Women of Irish & Celtic Music I titled this episode “Slow Travel”. Today, I got an email from VisitScotland.com. That's a website promoting Scottish tourism. Since I'm leading a Celtic Invasion Vacation to Loch Lomond in Scotland, I've been subscribed and seeing what they have to offer. Today, they shared an article and video about Slow Travel. That's something that I greatly appreciate and cherish with my own vacations. It's not about seeing everything. It's getting to know an area. Check out the link in the shownotes. And I highly recommend their newsletter. They seem to be leading the pack when it comes to promoting ecotourism and sustainable travel. Stuff I've slowly thought about. But they're really doing it in Scotland. So kudos! Let's get on with the show. VOTE IN THE CELTIC TOP 20 FOR 2022 This is our way of finding the best songs and artists each year. You can vote for as many songs and tunes that inspire you in each episode. Your vote helps me create next year's Best Celtic music of 2022 episode. Vote Now! It also helps me create the… IRISH & CELTIC MUSIC: BEST OF 2022 PLAYLIST Your votes are tabulated two weeks after the episode is released. The most - popular songs are added to TWO playlists. One one Spotify. One on Amazon Music. I sometimes make errors. So the newest additions to the Playlist are Tuatha de Danann, Doolin', We Banjo 3, Screeched and Marc Gunn Listen on Spotify and Amazon Music. BUY SELCOUTH BY MARC GUNN My new CD is now available. It's called Selcouth. It's an album of almost all original music. There's one traditional tune set and “Loch Lomond,” a traditional Scottish song. The rest of it is a bunch of original songs with Celtic - inspired music. There's a few comedy tracks like “Mingulay Cat Song”, “Why Do You Torture Me”, “Genetic Counseling Song”, and “Kilty Pleasure”. There's a new hobbit song inspired by Lord of the Rings and a song I think Wolf Loescher sang on this podcast a year ago. There are four songs inspired by the pop culture TV show, Firefly, but fused with Celtic sounds. The lyrics are definitely relevant to fans of the show, but the stories are about real people finding change. One of my favorite parts about the album is collaboration with other musicians like Screeched Inn, The Muckers, Jamie Haeuser, Sam Gillogly, Nathan Deese, and Mikey Mason. It's now on sale in my Bandcamp store. Check out Selcouth now. THANK YOU PATRONS OF THE PODCAST! Because of Your kind and generous support, this show comes out at least four times a month.

I actually left for a couple months with disastrous results. I now host ALL of my podcasts with them. And yes, I have more than the two you hear about on this show. I'm telling you this because Libsyn launched an affiliate program. I don't do affiliate programs much any more. But if there's one I'm happy to talk about, it's Libsyn. I'll be honest.

I WANT YOUR FEEDBACK What are you doing today while listening to the podcast? You can send a written comment along with a picture of what you're doing while listening. What are you doing with your local celtic community? Email a voicemail message to celticpodcast@gmail.com Donald Rice emailed: "Dear Marc, First of all, I love your podcast, music, and cats. I just submitted an album from the band I am in - Poitin. We are based in Fargo/Moorhead - Fargo is in ND, Moorhead in MN. They are sister cities across the Red River of the North, which is the river named in the album title - Banks of Red River. What is particularly noteworthy about Banks is that it features Metis music, a tradition which melds Irish, French, and Native sounds and stories. Though we play many Irish tunes and some originals, Metis music has become our special calling card, having played at many festivals and venues including a recent Metis festival at the Old Treaty Crossing in Northern Minnesota. Our music also has been featured at many community and youth orchestra concerts. You can see some of this on videos on our website, which was included in the submission. Thanks so much for considering playing our music on your podcast. Let me know if you have any questions." Buddy McPeak emailed: "Just found the podcast on pandora. Great music! I'll be listening from now on. Thanks" Karen H emailed: "Hi Marc, I am a recent Patron. :) I joined so I can expand my knowledge of and listening experiences with other Celtic Musicians. I have very little of each at the moment. So, my favorites that I've listened to for years are: Altan, Lunasa, The Gothard Sisters, The Chieftains, and though she is probably a different category, my all time favorite music artist no matter the genre is Enya. I have so much to explore in the Celtic music genre! I appreciate your podcasts."
This week there was barely any proper news, just mostly people popping their heads out the woodwork to endorse something or other - so we generally focused on the sub-par interesting news items this week. Having said that we've got a new logo drawn by the extremely awesome 'terbangtinggi' on fiverr - which makes us feel legit. Raw also suggests that the longer a band name is - the worse that band is...

The Genealogy Gems Podcast with Lisa Louise Cooke - Your Family History Show
Published May 3, 2012 Decipher your ancestor's head gear with Maureen Taylor (AKA The Photo Detective) with tips from her new book Bonnets and Hats. And then grab your spouse for a genealogical musical number. NEWS: Thanks for the Shout Outs: Going the Extra Yad by Emily Garber at the blog FamilySearch Update The 1940 U.S. census indexing project was launched this April as part of a broad . - Over 85,000 volunteers have already completed 20 percent of the census project. - A record number of active indexers used the program in a single day—34,947 volunteers. - In one day more than 3.2 million records were indexed and 1.5 million were arbitrated. The Genealogy Gems News Blog Pinterest My pinterest boards Pins from genealogygems Follow me on pinterest icon MAILBOX: Sterling is lucky to have old family photos but needs some help preserving them. He writes: “I've become a regular listener of your Genealogy Gems podcast and I find that I'm enjoying it as much as any of the NPR radio shows that are my listening mainstays. I've learned so much from listening to you over the past few months and I'm deeply grateful. I have a question that perhaps you or one of your listeners know the answer to. I have a family photo album, circa 1915, in which all the photos have been glued to black construction-type paper…Can you or anyone listening suggest a safe method for removing these photos from their old pages in order to recover the information that's on the backs of them? An answer from The Practical Archivist Sally Jacobs Sally also writes: “My advice was to use interleaving sheets to protect the image side of the photographs from the acidic paper, rather than deconstruct her ancestor's scrapbook. That advice still stands, but your listener has brought up one of the few exceptions to this rule: Information has been written on the back of the glued photographs. That doesn't mean I'm giving Sterling a green light to soak his ancestor photographs. NOTE: Water and photographs should not be mixed by anyone who isn't a trained conservator! The scrapbook format is difficult to process because of the different elements from which it is made. The adhesive may be water soluble and simple to soak off. Try to isolate a leaf of the book with some plastic sheeting (i.e. place a piece of plastic under the leaf to avoid damaging the leaf below). Place a damp piece of blotting paper over one of the newspaper clippings under a light weight. Leave it for about twenty minutes then very carefully, using a spatula, lift the newspaper from the leaf. Place the newspaper clipping between two pieces of dry blotting paper to dry." Thanks to Sally Jacobs the Practical Archivist. You can get lots more greats preservation advice from her at Swedish TV Series: Line in Denmark wrote in again to give us an update on a popular Swedish TV show about family history: “I have some exiting news about the Swedish tv show that I mentioned in my last email. "Everything for Sweden." On this link they are “I have taken up your advice on contacting long lost family members. I still don't have the courage to phone them, but instead contacting them on e-mail. So far it has been a big success. I would never have done it if I hadn't listened to your show. So thanks! Love your podcasts - please keep on making them!” Beverly Loves the Podcast: “I'm a relatively new listener and premium member. I was bitten by the genealogy bug when I was about 12 years old and now I'm a grandmother. I've been calling myself a reformed genealogist because the "bug" has been dormant for a while…Thank you for all you share with your listeners. You have a real gift for communicating in a clear and personable way. I look forward to all your gems I have yet to uncover.” Get your free audio book and over 40,000 audio book titles to choose from at Audible: GEM: Interview with The Photo Detective Maureen Taylor, author of the book Bonnets and Hats GEM: The Genealogy WidowerThe other day I was doing my usual trolling of the web searching for new genealogy gems, and I found a very musical oe that I want to close out the show today with. If you have a wife or husband like mine who really isn't in to genealogy, gather them around the computer or iPod because I've actually got something on the show they are going to totally identify with. This is a special song that comes to us from Michael Stewart also known as The Genealogy Widower… You can download a free copy of Michael Stewart's song the Genealogy Widower .
News: Thanks to listener Linda Hopkins, we learn from Amazon that Kindle samples are NOT designed to timeout.Tech Tip: How to put [20,000] 2,000 classics on your Kindle using MobileReference (thanks to Nick for suggesting this one) - 1. Connect your Kindle to your computer with USB cable.2. In your computer's web browser, go to MobileReference3. In the main area of the web site, not the column on the left, scroll down to the section titled “Fiction Books.” 4. In the last subcategory of that section, titled “Collection:”, click on “Classic Books Collection. Over 2,000 complete works. Only $19.99.”5. For use on the Kindle, it doesn't seem to matter which platform you choose; I've just tested the “Desktop/Notebook/Tablet PC” platform, and that worked fine. So in the row for “Desktop/Notebook/Tablet PC” platform, go over one column to the “Trial Version” column and click “Download Now.”6. You will be asked to enter your email address, so do that and then click on the green “Download Application” button.7. On the next screen, click on the live link which says “Click here to download: Best-Selling Classic Books Collection. Over 2000 complete works. FREE biographies and works in trial”8. From here, what you see will depend on whether you are using a PC or Mac, but the essentials are the same as with any other download from the Internet that you do on your computer. For the Mac, I see a dialog box saying, “You have chosen to open classicstrial103.zip” which is a zipped file containing numerous separate items. I click on “OK” to open it with Stuffit Expander. However your computer works, your goal is to be able to find a folder on your hard drive titled “ClassicsTrial”. Mine shows up in a Downloads folder.9. Open a window that shows you the “ClassicsTrial” folder you just downloaded, and then open that folder so you can see all the items in it, beginning with “AlexandreDumasDEMO.prc” and ending with “WilliamShakespeareDEMO.prc.”10. Open another window that shows the Kindle icon, which you should see because your Kindle is attached to the computer by the USB cable.11. Doubleclick the Kindle icon, so you can see five folders, including the one labeled “Documents.” 12. Drag the “ClassicsTrial” folder into the “Documents” folder of your Kindle. I just tried this on my MacBook Air, and it worked fine – I assume the same process will work on a PC, but if you run into trouble you might try selecting all the individual books in the “ClassicsTrial” folder and dragging them in one big bunch into the “Documents” folder. 13. Once you have the “ClassicsTrial” contents in the Documents folder of your Kindle, safely eject the Kindle icon and then unplug the USB cable.14. Checking on your Home screen, you'll now see about three added pages of demo versions of classic books. 15. I'm pretty sure that once you sample some of the demo books, you'll want to spend the $19.99 to purchase the actual collection. I'm going to do that now but make sure they go to my SD card, to keep my main Kindle.16. The purchase process via Handango is routine, and you don't have to wait for a registration code. The folder is called “ClassicsFull” . It's about 115 megabytes in size, so even with my speedy Comcast connection (31 megabits per second when I was doing the download last weekend) – it took a while for it all to load to my computer, and then another few minutes for it to load from the computer to the Kindle.17. I've got a 1 GigaByte SD card in my Kindle. After adding 2,000 classics I've got 838 MB left, or room for another 16,000 classics on a storage device that cost me less than $20.18. One thing I don't like is that all these new titles appear in my Home pages on the Kindle, even though I put them on the SD card. At least they are gathered by author, so you click on an author to see all the titles he or she wrote. 19. All in all this is a great resource, and I want to thank Nick for suggesting that I follow the process for this week's Tech Tip.Interview: Jason Pontin, editor-in-chief and publisher of MIT's Technology Review, a rising star in the Kindle Store.Quote: "The Lady with the Dog" by Anton Chekhov.Comments: Bob Boyken, Jim Brooks, Gail Scott, Julie Booth and Will D.
