Karolevitz Exhibit Set For The Center A special Veterans Day exhibit featuring recollections of World War II through the eyes of local author Bob Karolevitz will be on display at The Center, 900 Whiting Drive in Yankton, Nov. 2-20. Many articles have recently been published in local newspapers to remind the public of the importance of World War II and those who sacrificed to wage that battle, both at home and overseas. It is true that “a picture is worth a thousand words.” The Center presents the exhibit that commemorates the events of World War II through the eyes of Karelovitz, a resident poet, essayist and historian. Ten photographs and documents will be on display at The Center beginning on Monday, Nov. 2, through Friday, Nov. 20. Along with each photo and document are short paragraphs explaining the content of each. Karolevitz was an everyday GI and his story is the story of most veterans. Display hours are 8 a.m.-4 p.m. Film On Lakota Language To Be Shown VERMILLION — The University of South Dakota will host a free public showing Thursday, Nov. 5, of the film “Rising Voices” about linguists and members of the Lakota community working together to save the Lakota language.

There you are!” How many times have you said that in your lifetime? A dozen times playing hide-and-seek; a hundred times looking for lost possessions; weekly, when living with someone who’s mobile and active. There you are! The search is complete unless, as in the new mystery, “Nine Lives” by Wendy Corsi Staub, the loss runs deeper … Bella Jordan was sure that she’d have an old Victorian house again someday. She didn’t want to leave the one she’d lived in for so long, but she had to: she couldn’t afford it anymore, after having lost her job and her husband, both within a few months. At least she still had Max, her 5-year-old son, her life. It wouldn’t be any fun moving from New York to Chicago to stay with her late husband’s mother, but that had to be done, too. Millicent (or Maleficent, as Bella sometimes called her privately) was the kind of woman who disapproved of everything. Bella just wanted her life back. The drive to Chicago wouldn’t take long; she hoped they’d make it in time for Max to see the July 4th Fireworks from Navy Pier. They’d camp along the way – anything to save a few dollars — but along the road to the first campground, something odd happened that Bella had a hard time explaining. Through a strange set of circumstances, she and Max landed in the small town of Lily Dale, New York, home to a community of psychics, one of which who’d recently drowned in a lake behind her home. Because Bella had car troubles and needed a place to stay, and because the summer season was imminent and guests would arrive soon, she was asked to help manage the woman’s guest house. But things in “the Dale” were just too weird for her, and Bella’s imagination ran wild. She kept hearing odd noises, too many people had keys to the guest house, and the death of the original owner was looking more deliberate than accidental. And yet, try as she might, Bella couldn’t seem to leave the odd little enclave — although there was someone who really wanted her to go … Now that I see a synopsis written down, I suppose one could say that “Nine Lives” is somewhat convoluted. And that would be correct: it is, and a bit clichéd, too. It’s also filled with deliciously irresistible creepiness. Starting with a real town as a setting — a town filled with people who talk to the dead — author Wendy Corsi Staub layers on the goosebumps with a murder that may not be a murder and a fictional cast of characters that will keep you guessing. The ghosties and seers aren’t the only thing that creates chills here, though: Staub also turns the dial up on psychological terror, too. What more could you want? Not much, because this is a whodunit lover’s whodunit, packed with everything you expect in a mystery and a little more. “Nine Lives” is a curl-upand-read kind of book, and if that’s what you need — there you are.
