GMG Blog Reading Video #3- The Comment Feature

Most bloggers will tell you that without people commenting or giving feedback they would probably end up not putting as much back into their blog.   You see without feedback you don’t know if people are into the blog, what they like, dislike or how the blog can improve.

I love hearing from the old and new GMG readers, it makes me feel connected to you.   So if you haven’t left comments in the past or didn’t know how-

SATURDAY, JANUARY 31ST @ 4:30PM
DIRECTOR IN ATTENDANCE!

“Have You Seen Andy?” is the Emmy-winning personal story of a childhood friendship abruptly ended by the tragic abduction of a young boy. On a hot summer day in August 1976, ten year-old Andy Puglisi was playing along with dozens of other children at the Higgins Memorial Pool in Lawrence, Massachusetts. Then suddenly, he disappeared. Twenty-two years later, filmmaker Melanie Perkins, Andy’s childhood friend, begins her search for answers in this feature-length documentary.

Director Melanie Perkins will be on-hand to conduct a Q&A after the film.

“An absorbing, often tormenting glimpse at the mystery surrounding an unspeakable crime whose reverberations live on.” -Ray Richmond, The Hollywood Reporter

“A distinguished contribution to the true-crime genre…the loving testament of a woman who never allowed herself to forget her ill-fated playmate.” -Tim Page, The Washington Post

“…truly terrifying…” -Tenley Woodman, The Boston Herald

What’s Opera, Doc? – Pavarotti Tribute At The CACC Saturday

SATURDAY, JANUARY 31ST @ 1:00PM & 2:45PM

“Salute Petra” is a wonderful charity tribute concert to the late Italian tenor Luciano Pavarotti.

This event was presented on October 12th 2008, Pavarotti’s birthday, in front of an exclusive invited audience of royalty, classical and popular music stars at the world heritage site Petra, Jordan. The combination of inimitable and mesmerizing settings with performances from some of the world’s most respected and revered musicians made it one of the musical events of the decade.

The performance was set against a breathtaking natural amphitheatre and featured Placido Domingo and José Carreras, who famously performed with Pavarotti as the Three Tenors for more than 17 years; Domingo and Carreras sang together for the first time since Pavoratti’s passing. This extraordinary event also featured performances by Sting, Angela Gheorghiu, Andrea Bocelli, Cynthia Lawrence and Sherrill Milnes, flutist Andrea Griminelli, Jovanotti and Laura Pausini, and thirteen year old violin sensation Aleem Kandour. Italian rock star Zucchero performed ‘Misere’ as a duet with Pavarotti on screen. The sublime Prague Philharmonic Orchestra served accompanied all the stars.

Tickets are $12.50, all seats, and proceeds from this special event will benefit joint projects in Afghanistan by the U.N. Refugee Agency (UNHCR) and the U.N. World Food Programme (WFP).

Damon Again.

I swear he must be missing the cold gene.  This morning he was battling through the ice to get to Zeke’s.  Pete Mondello plowed through with his big Novi Boat and cleared a path for him though.

Some people slip into retirement content to sit on a warm couch watching the news in the morning and sipping hot coffee.  Not Damon, he would rather row a grand banks dory in 10 degree weather.  God bless him.
