Family Tree Maker 2010: Product Review
By: Rick Roberts
The newly released Family Tree Maker 2010 arrived at our warehouse on Tuesday of this week. I was quick to pop open the first carton, grab a package, and head to my computer to check it out. After spending several hours exploring Family Tree Maker 2010 I can report that Family Tree Maker 2010 has successfully built on their earlier success with FTM 2009, adding popular new user-requested features, and improving overall performance.

There's More Than One Way to Destroy Books
By Shirley Gage Hodges.
As a species we should learn from our history. Considering the events of the last couple of months regarding the Governor's effort to shut-down the Library of Michigan, I sometimes wonder if we do. I would like to take you back to March 8, 1989, the day when the Michigan Library and Historical building was dedicated, and share with you just a few of the quotes and feelings of that day. There is a startling contrast between dignitaries' comments on that day, and recent actions of the current Michigan Governor.
