Disney’s Animal Kingdom was the third Disney Park that The Arts and Entertainment Magazine explored during our Thanksgiving 2013 visit to Florida. This adventure had to be compromised time-wise as with our last Disney foray. We did get in as much as possible although we would have loved to see much more during our visits. The park did not let us down, though, as with more additions arriving with our group it proved to be time well spent.
One of the first stops was the Animal Conservation Center where we were treated to views of the many animals and insects that are housed there. The official reason for this park’s construction was that Disney supports the preservation of all animal species. What better way to do it than to display wildlife in both instructional ways as well as in their natural habitats. The next stop was at the children’s Affection Station. To enter this area you must take the Wildlife Express Train (my favorite on this visit) where I actually was aloud to pose by the European style locomotive (I actually have two of those locos in my collection). Here youngsters can interact with many domestic and farm animals that are on display here. The Boneyard was also a place that that we stopped and proved to be another favorite for the children. Here play areas and children’s rides dominate this section. (more…)
In this past issue I had started a quest to learn something about my ancestral name. Taking the advice of several friends I had decided to log on to Ancestry.com to give me help. Before doing so I set out to discover the birthdates of my grandfather (also named Joseph) and my grandmother. This would help pinpoint them on the registers of travel that they would need to take for their trip to America.
The 2013 Portfolio Wins By A Nose – Our 2013 Portfolio rode a strong final four weeks from leaders Boeing (BA) and Facebook (FB) to outperform the S&P 500 for the year ended January 9, 2014. Although the S&P 500 gained 3.5% over the final four weeks while our portfolio gained 1.9%, from its January 10, 2013 inception through January 9, 2014, our portfolio gained 25.8% while the S&P 500 gained 25.34%. I am very pleased to have once again outperformed the S&P 500.
The drive to the hospital did not take as long as the demon lord first thought. When the car pulled into the hospital parking lot, Belial glanced once at the sleeping form of his young sorcerer and let himself smile, just a little. The car engine turned slowly after the demon lord shut the car off. Stretching languidly, Belial leaned over the space between the passenger and him, stretching his hand leisurely toward the human’s face. His long nails smoothed over the worry lines at the corner of Koen’s lips and Belial purred softly.
TAEM- The Arts and Entertainment Magazine has been fascinated with the new filmmaking process involving web series productions. This aspect of the moviemaking field has been growing in popularity for some time. It allows young filmmakers the opportunity to create films without dealing with the large film studios and affords them with seeing their work come to fruition much sooner.
TAEM- There are a multitude of functions needed to get a film produced that most people are unaware of. One of the major hurdles that a filmmaker must breach is financing his work. For that The Arts and Entertainment Magazine is tapping into the inner workings of this area for all those who wish to create a film and start a production company.

TAEM- The Arts and Entertainment Magazine is constantly on the prowl looking for new musicians, and music styles, to introduce to our readership. A short time ago we had toured San Francisco and wrote an article about it in our ‘NEWS’ section. Recently we were introduced to a new group from there called Firekeeper.
