Industry: Education

Press Release Summary: The recently launched "Mimi Speaks" blog provides useful information on a wide variety of topics, everything from New York City history to stress in everyday life.

Press Release Body: Miriam Medina, or "Mimi," is the site administrator of thehistorybox.com, a non-profit educational website. "Mimi Speaks" is her blog. Many of the people who have benefited from their visits to history, educational or genealogical websites have never had the opportunity to know, on a personal level, the individual or group that works behind the scene, researching and providing trustworthy information that is made available to the public for free. Motivated by the curiosity of many readers of thehistorybox.com, the "Mimi Speaks" blog was created, as an informal way of getting to know each other through discussions on a variety of issues.

Vibrant topics such as East Harlem with its Italian Feasts; Chasing Elusive Ancestors; New York City's Early Riots; Domestic Violence; Self-Direction; I Love New York; What We Can Do When Things Go Wrong; To Be or Not To Be Discouraged? Ah! That is The Question and much more, all find their way to the "Mimi Speaks" blog. Apart from these postings, the blog also offers helpful links to the parent web site, www.thehistorybox.com.

Miriam Medina loves to write, so find yourself a comfortable chair, and while you're at it, grab a steaming hot cup of coffee and a bagel and cream cheese too and you'll be all set to settle down for a while. Here is the link: http://mimispeaks.blogspot.com/
