Perry Mason-The Case of the Crying Cherub (1960)
Aired (9 Apr. 1960) on CBS Perry Mason delves into the world of art forgery when he represents June Sinclair who is accused of murdering Liza Carson Lambert. June worked at a museum as assistant to the director, Richard Harkens. They've only just been informed by art gallery owner Sylvester Robey that their recently acquired Matisse painting is a forgery. Harkens' domineering mother Amelia - the real power behind the museum - is convinced the real Matisse was stolen by June and her boyfriend, artist David Lambert, who were in the gallery late the previous evening. David and Liza were in the process of getting a divorce and when she learns about the Matisse, Liza approaches Mrs. Harkens offering to arrange for the painting's return. When she is found dead, June finds herself in jail. Perry soon figures out what is going on and attends an art auction to acquire the evidence that will set his client freeFrom: 53repeteViews: 0

WWII Living History Days - The Anzio Express & The North Platte Canteen - Pt.10
The Illinois Railway Museum in Union, Illinois, is honoring World War II veterans during its third annual Anzio Express and North Platte Canteen event during Armed Forces Day weekend, May 19-20, 2012. The event will highlight how trains played a critical role during the war and contributed to the final Allied victory. The event features more than 150 Allied, Axis and civilian WWII re-enactors who will set up period campsite displays and hold pitched public battles for control of a critical rail yard. Some scenarios include the public in the middle of the action, as a German commandeered train is overrun by the advancing American troops. A re-creation of the famous volunteer canteen in North Platte, Neb., that gave comfort and food to tens of thousands of US, troops will be re-created. The public can ride the train and interact with scores of American soldiers on their cross-country trip as they stop at canteen. The museum will assist in brining the 1940s back to life with its operational railway rolling stock, including restored passenger cars and streetcars from the period. The event takes place on the grounds of the Illinois Railway Museum and includes use of its working trains, trolleys and streetcars.From: LightningWar1939Views: 0

Dean Duh Mastro on Sex and Science (May 17th - 2012)
Dean Del Mastro (et al) thinks sex education (biology) isn't science, and unbelievably equates the Sex Exhibit at the Museum of Science and Technology with taking your kids to a porn shop to learn about sex. Typical baseless smear coming from an ever obvious backward-thinking party. He also makes mention of a "free-pass" for this tax-payer funded institution....so I guess that means the Museum of Science and Technology will soon be getting funding cuts.....just like all the other institutions that disagree with the Conservative ideology.From: melovescanadaViews: 2
