Janet Wetterberg

Janet Kay Wetterberg (nee Sharp) was lost to Cancer on July 25th in Calgary.
Sexsmith and Peace River were home to Janet in her youth, with her twin sister Carol and younger brother Bob. Janet was happily married to her husband Jim for 49 years. Together they raised Donna, Don, Shelley, and Shannon and celebrated the joys of having seven grandchildren.
Janet supported the family, and her community in so many activities, charities, and volunteer pursuits, including a deep involvement in the sport of fencing where she dedicated endless support, guidance and enthusiasm to the many people she touched with her efforts.
Graduating Nursing at Royal Alec Hospital in Edmonton was where Janet began the journey of her many careers throughout her life. Her enthusiasm and vibrant energy took her into other occupations such as the travel and construction industry later. Janet had a lifelong passion for gardening in the summer.
Enjoying summer evenings sitting on the deck with a glass of wine and admiring nature's beauty were among her favourite pastimes. Janet shared with us her endless love of life and valued keeping friends and family close to her heart no matter where they were. You will forever be in our hearts and we will find comfort in knowing that you will be with us always in spirit.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made directly to the Alberta Cancer Foundation (c/o Tom Baker Cancer Centre, 1331 – 29 Street NW, Calgary, AB T2N 4N2).
A gathering of family and friends of Janet will take place later in August. Details will be posted within the next week at www.fencingcanada.ca.

Japan Wins FIFA World Cup

Japan, making its first appearance in the final of a major tournament, hadn’t beaten the Americans in their first 25 meetings, including a pair of 2-0 losses in exhibition games a month before the World Cup.

England Keep My Bones

England Keep My Bones is the fourth studio album by London-based singer-songwriter Frank Turner, released on June 6, 2011, on Xtra Mile in the United Kingdom, and on June 7, 2011, on Epitaph Records worldwide. The album was produced and mixed by Tristan Ivemy, who had previously mixed Love, Ire and Song, Rock & Roll and Campfire Punkrock.
The album's title is taken from William Shakespeare's play, The Life and Death of King John, with Turner noting, "I knew that the album was, for the most part, about mortality, and about Englishness. Shakespeare seemed like a good place to go hunting for some pearls of wisdom, and with a little help from my friend Ben we came across this one, and it just seemed to fit the work really well."

Coriolanus

Coriolanus is a 2011 film adaptation of Shakespeare's tragedy Coriolanus directed by and starring Ralph Fiennes. It marks Fiennes's directorial debut. Shooting began in March 2010 in Belgrade, Serbia. Watch out Kenneth Branagh you could have some new competition in the directing of Shakespeare's plays department. Look for a Christmas 2011 release date!

The Eagle

The Eagle is the final novel in the A Dream of Eagles series (published in the United States as the Camulod Chronicles). The Eagle follows the continuing story of Clothar (Lancelot) from when he meets Arthur Pendragon, and up to King Arthur's death and beyond. Not to be confused with the film of the same name (based on Rosemary Sutcliff's novel Eagle of The Ninth) this is a wonderfull yarn for anyone interested in the Arthurian Legends. Like Lawhead's Hood series it takes a different look at the ageless legend of Lance, Quinevere & King Arthur, great summer reading fun!
