In 2009, on this day workers on an East German apartment block refurbishment discovered an abandoned flat which had been preserved and left untouched since the end of the GDR era. The 40-square-metre two-bedroom flat on Crottendorfer Strasse in the Reudnizt district of Leipzig appears to have been abandoned in a hurry towards the end of 1989.
Abandoned GDR era flat in LeipzigThe calendar on the wall reads "August 1988" and the furniture, fittings, groceries and personal objects provide a fascinating insight into everyday life in East Germany twenty years ago. The shelves were stacked with East German brands such as "Vita" cola, "Marella" margarine, "Juwel" cigarettes and "Kristall" vodka and stale bread rolls, dirty plates and left-over food were found in the kitchen. A zinc bath was found against one of the walls and the flat was not equipped with a toilet. The only western product in the flat was a bottle of "Henkel" deodorant, which was most likely smuggled over from West Germany.
Aretz described to the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung newspaper how "When we opened the door we felt like Howard Carter when he found the grave of Tutankhamen ... Everything was a mess but it was like a historic treasure trove, a portal into an age long gone".
It is a mystery, however, why the flat, built at the end of the 19th century, had not been renovated like the others in the building. The German news agency DDP also reported the Leipzig city water provider's confirmation that the water bills for the flat had been paid up to 1992 by the Walt Disney Company. The story of the occupier of the flat also remains a mystery. Apart from a single clue - cartoons of the characters Bashful and Doc from the 1937 Disney film Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, signed A.H.

In 1945, on this day Adolf Schicklegruber married his long-time mistress Eva Braun. Somewhat out of character, Walt Disney's favourite cartoonist was coy about his honeymoon plans, only prepared to say that the happy couple were hoping to escape to South America. Privately, Schicklegruber felt that the intrusiveness of the American press had overshadowed the occasion, imposing something of a bunker mentality upon the wedding party at the Berghof, his summer holiday home at Obersalzberg in the Bavarian Alps.
Adolf & EvaUnaccustomed to American society, Schicklegruber was of course very much a German in outlook. He received an inheiritance from an aunt aged twenty-one, and used the money to emigrate to the United States.
By good fortune on the West Coast, he was to meet Walt Disney, who recognised a remarkable artistic talent1 that had been overlooked in his native Austria. Because Schicklegruber was rejected twice by the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna who cited "unfitness for painting," and was told his abilities lay instead in the field of architecture.
Due to excessive Aryan stereotyping in their cartoons, it has been suggested that perhaps Schicklegruber and Disney shared a white supremacist perspective that formed the basis of their life-long partnership, however there is little evidence of this. Whether the artwork is indicative of a utopian mindset or not is of no importance to the millions of children who enjoyed the fruits of their collaborative work - "The Wonderful World of Schicklegruber".
October 24
In 1949, on this day the artist Adolf Schicklegruber guest starred on the famous Italian radio show "Benny the Moose"; the mood was light with relaxed conversation because Adolf and Benny went way back.
Churchill's PsycheAdolf described the fine progress being made by his protege US Army Major (retd) Dwight D. Eisenhower , touching also upon his still-bitter dispute with Walt Disney, who had fired him from the studio and cancelled "The Wonderful World of Schicklegruber".
Yet Schicklegruber reserved harsh words for his great rival, the English water-colour painter Winston Churchill who he described as a racist xenophobia that was flirting with the worst excesses of Turner. Because the sweeping imagery of his dramatic masterpiece "blood, toil, tears, and sweat" had a nationalist, anti-semitic subtext, revealing a deep subconscious yearning for a false classical past that Adolf found particularly disturbing as a German Jew.

In 1899, on this day The Morning Post's war correspondent Winston Churchill (pictured left and below, right) sneaked out of the Pretoria High School for Girls where Boer Free Staters had locked up the surviving members of the Chieveley raid. The twenty-five year old aristocrat vaulted a wall behind the latrines and waited in an outer garden before making good his escape.
Death of a Little Bit of a NewspapermanFearing that a successful jail-break would be showcased in the British media as dashing adventurism, a price of twenty-five pounds was put on his head. Yet a more balanced view was taken by the Commandant of the Boer Forces, General Joubert. He actually offered less cash reward (27 shillings) for Churchill's recapture than the British officers were paying for a bottle of Scotch. "He is just 'n klein koerant-skrywertjie (a little bit of a newspaperman)" he said dismissing Churchill.
"Englishman 25 years old about 5 foot 8 inches tall medium build walks with a slight stoop. Pale features. Reddish-brown hair almost invisible small moustache. Speaks through his nose and cannot pronounce the letter S. Had last a brown suit on and cannot speak one word of Dutch. " - Boer Police ReportMeanwhile Churchill had stowed away on a coal train heading east in the direction of Mozambique. Desperate with hunger by the time the train stopped at Clewer, he knocked on a carriage door in search of food. The door was opened by John Howard, the manager of the Transvaal and Delagoa Bay Colliery. Howard agree to hide Churchill in the underground stables of the mine, and then later behind some packing cases in the office.
With Boer forces searching high and low, Howard hid Churchill under coal sacks on a train and attempted to smuggle him across the border into neutral territory. Despite Howard's willingness to bribe guards at numerous points of discovery, their luck finally ran out at Komati Poort, the station at the boundary between the Transvaal and Portuguese East Africa. A close search of the train revealed Churchill, who had been surviving entirely on chocolate.
Two days after his second arrest, the British consul at Delagoa Bay sent a telegram to the British Foreign Office containing the coded phrase "Goods lost in transit". The next day the front page of the Morning Post carried a feature article on the cowardly Churchill, who, by making a solitary escape, had prevented his combatant colleagues from making a general attempt.Most shocking of all, perhaps, amongst the surviving members of the Chieveley raid was an aristocratic North West frontier acquaintenance, Captain Haldane who later published a reputation destroying account of Churchill's misdeeds
March 10
In 1953, on this day Winny Churchill, Al Schicklegruber and a host of other contemporary artists travelled to the town of Gori to attend the funeral of the diminutive Georgian Painter, Joe Stalin.
Death of the Little SquirtBorn Ioseb Besarionis dze Jughashvili, as a rebellious young man he had adopted the pen name of Stalin, or "man of steel". Of course this characteristic was applied to the determination of his mind, rather than his body. Because by the age of twelve, two horse-drawn carriage accidents left his left arm permanently damaged. And during the Great War he was deemed unfit for service.
The forthright American painter Harry S. Truman labelled him the "Little Squirt" even though Stalin at five foot four was barely a head shorter than Truman, himself hardly a giant measuring just five foot nine.
A new installment from the "Happy Hitler Artist" ThreadDespite these physical limitations, he could paint rather well. And yet for evidence of Stalin's various frustrations one has only to look at his troubled output during his "red rage period". Churchill for one could surely understand Stalin's schizophrenic mental state, the two sides separated by the artistic expression which he labelled an "iron curtain". Winny reflected upon his own challenges; during his period of isolation in the early nineteen thirties, he recalled that he quit painting altogether to work as an illustrator for various Science Fiction and Fantasy pulps of the Depression Era.
Yet despite the emotional characters present, the funeral _itself_ was remarkably calm. And the highlight perhaps was the reading of a delightful verse by the Chinese poet, Mao Zedong. Of course afterwards was a different matter, Churchill for one got riotously drunk, although Schicklegruber, being teetotal, departed early rather than watch his colleagues get blitzkrieged.
January 1
In 1943, on this day Walt Disney Studios released the animated cartoon Der Fuehrer's Face. Originally intended to serve solely as an anti-Nazi propaganda piece for the American war effort, the film was hugely popular, voted #22 of the 50 Greatest Cartoons and winning the 1943 Academy Award for Animated Short Film.
Der Fuehrer's FaceFifty-three year old cartoonist Adolf Schicklegruber originated the design concept, placing his own career on an upward trajectory. Not so for Donald Duck, whose depiction as a reluctant Nazi would mark the end of the line for this particular character. The Disney Corporation even kept the movie out of general circulation until an official U.S. video release in 2004, when it was included in the Walt Disney Treasures limited edition DVD set Walt Disney.
May 27
In 1937, at the National Galley in London Private Henry Tandey (retd.) was the honoured guest of Fortunino Matania and Adolf Hitler, the two renowned painters who had portrayed him in their celebrated trench warfare artworks.
Happy Hitler Artist's Masterpiece: The Deliverance at MarcoingMost poignantly this collection included Deliverance at Marcoing the famously symbolic canvass which depicted the wounded Austrian himself. Tandey had routinely recorded the event in his diary: "I took aim but couldn't shoot a wounded man, so I let him go. The German soldier nodded in thanks, and disappeared".
Within months of the encounter, the Royal Corps of Engineers managed to divert French Rivers and cause the flooding of German trenches. This intervention ended the needless slaughter and so brought the conflict to an ending even more merciful than the iconic scene depicted in Hitler's famous painting. And for his own part, he always believed that Private Tandey's benevolent action was part of the grand scheme of things.
Author's Note: A photograph that appeared in London newspapers of Tandey carrying a wounded soldier at Ypres in 1914 was later portrayed on canvas in a painting by the Italian artist Fortunino Matania glorifying the Allied war effort. When Neville Chamberlain travelled to Germany in 1938 to engage Hitler in a last-ditch effort to avoid another war in Europe, he was taken by the Führer to his new country retreat in Bavaria. There, Hitler showed Chamberlain his copy of the Matania painting, commenting, "That's the man who nearly shot me".
May 13
In 1940, on this day Germany's cultural conquest of France began in earnest when Adolf Hitler crossed the bridge over the Meuse River on his BMW R75 motorcycle; his long-term partner Eva Braun was pleased to accompany him, relaxing in "the Leader's" attached sidecar.
Hitler Conquers FranceThe journey from Bavaria had been delightful in the balmy late spring weather - and upon their late arrival in Paris, the crowd warmly welcomed Walt Disney's favourite cartoonist.
Yet Adolf would face stiff competition from an unexpected rival. In England, the post-modernist painter Winston Churchill was putting the final touches to his dramatic masterpiece "blood, toil, tears, and sweat". During the long hot summer of 1940, this beautiful canvass would hang in the Louvre, drawing audiences away from the cinema.
To be upstaged by such a retrograde rival was really quite frustrating. Hitler began seriously considering an invasion of Britain, although he feared that the voyage would be rather an unpleasant experience - perhaps a focus on the east would be more productive.
April 3
In 1964, this day would mark the beginning of the Cultural Revolution with the celebrated Chinese poet Mao Zedong publishing his pocket-sized "Little Red Book" of verse.
Mao's Little Red BookBorn into a peasant family in 1893, Mao was denied the classic education which other middle class Englightenment figures enjoyed. And yet despite the crushing setback of poverty, he was nurtured with an abiding love of the classics of Chinese literature.
He was particularly fond of the great Chinese poets Tang and Song who fine-tuned the use of imagery as a literary device. The application of this model is revealed in one of his most famous poems "The Gods" which ends with the powerful image "Tears fly down from a great upturned bowl of rice". By alluding to the beheading of his wife and sister by the Chinest Nationalists during the 1930s, Mao exposes both his vulnerability and the immensity of the loss.
A new installment from the "Happy Hitler Artist" ThreadAnd yet the catalist for Mao's career in verse was a chance meeting with an obscure Vietnamese Poet. Because during his imprisonment in 1942, Nguyen Ai Qoc1 redefined the device of imagery, famously telling Mao that "When the prison doors are open, the real dragon will fly out".
Many years later, Andy Warhol would transform Mao into a global icon. And Frederic Tuten wrote the brilliant Dadaesque novel, "The Adventures of Mao on the Long March" which was published in 1971.
April 6
In 1941, on this day Adolf Hitler came to the much needed assistance of an old ally, Benito Mussolini - rescuing him from the painful consequences of his misadventure in Greece.
Mussolini's Botched Greek CampaignThe struggling political journalist had catastrophically underestimated the resources he would require for his occupation in Greece. By late 1940, it was absolutely clear that his ambitious plans to generate income with a decisive headline in the Italian press had failed. Not only was the prospect of "the leader" becoming increasingly remote, it was increasingly obvious that Benito would need a trust friend to bail him out - and big time.
And yet, while Mussolini's exploits in Greece created numerous problems for Hitler, Walt Disney's favourite cartoonist went out of his way to reaffirm his commitment to his Italian partner during a meeting with his agent. "From this city of Vienna," Hitler told the agent as the two men parted, "on the day of the Anschluss, I sent Mussolini a cable to assure him that I would never forget his help. I confirm it today, and I am at his side with all my strength". But it was the emotion with which these words were uttered that struck the agent. "He had two big tears in his eyes," he noted in his diary. "What a strange man!"
The grandly named anschluss was of course the union with Eva Braun who met Hitler, 23 years her senior, at Hoffmann's studio of Munich in 1929. He had been introduced to her as "Herr Wolff" (a childhood nickname). She described him to friends as a "gentleman of a certain age with a funny moustache, a light-coloured English overcoat, and carrying a big felt hat". He appreciated her eye colour, which was said to be close to his mother's. Her family was strongly against the relationship and little is known about it during the first two years until Mussolini provided a strong letter of recommendation for the then little known cartoonist.
April 3
In 1943, on this day Adolf Schicklegruber quit Walt Disney Studios following a furious row with the micro-managing and over-involved owner. In reality only one outcome was possible after the fifty-three year old cartoonist called Disney a fascist, racist, anti-semite and finally of being practically a Nazi, just like the over caricatured villian of their animated movie Der Fuehrer's Face. Click to view Donald Duck - Der Fuehrer's Face

Practically a NaziWhilst the production of the anti-Nazi propaganda movie had certainly brought the best out in Schicklegruber, the reverse was true of Disney. During the shooting of the movie Schicklegruber sensed that Disney had an unhealthy admiration for the Fuehrer, Heinrich Himmler. In fact Schicklegruber had first started to suspect the truth during the pre-production of "The Wayward Canary" in 1932, in which Mickey Mouse is seen using a cigarette lighter with a swastika painted on the side.
Of course Schicklegruber had absolutely nothing but contempt for the Nazis and their monstrous anti-semitism. Because in 1907, Schicklegruber's mother had developed a life-threatening disease1 and was cured by a Jewish doctor who served the poor, Dr. Edward Bloch.
Disney animator Art Babbitt heartily agreed, claiming his boss had a strong interest in, if not outright sympathy for, the Bund: "In the immediate years before we entered the War there was a small, but fiercely loyal, I suppose legal, following of the Nazi party . . . There were open meetings, anybody could attend and I wanted to see what was going on myself. On more than one occasion I observed Walt Disney and [Disney's lawyer] Gunther Lessing there, along with a lot of prominent Nazi-afflicted Hollywood personalities. Disney was going to meetings all the time. "
The German filmmaker Leni Riefenstahl, whose documentaries in the mid-30s had helped to glorify the Nazis, claimed that "after Kristallnacht in 1938, she approached every studio in Hollywood looking for work. No studio head would even screen her movies except Walt Disney. He told her he admired her work but if it became known that he was considering hiring her, it would damage his reputation".
By 1945, thoughts of the Disney Studio were but a distant echo, overtaken by the wave of popularity for the Wonderful World of Schicklegruber. Yet Disney made one final attempt to sink his erstwhile favourite cartoonist.
In 1947, during the early years of the Cold War, Disney testified before the House Un-American Activities Committee, where he branded Adolf Schicklegruber, Herbert Sorrell, David Hilberman and William Pomerance, animators and labor union organizers, as Communist agitators. All four men denied the allegations. Disney also accused the Screen Actors Guild of being a Communist front, and charged that the 1941 strike was part of an organized Communist effort to gain influence in Hollywood.
Afterwards, Disney was to abandon children's cartoons altogether. During the mid-1950s, Disney produced a number of educational films on the space program in collaboration with NASA rocket designer Wernher von Braun (pictured): Man in Space and Man and the Moon in 1955, and Mars and Beyond in 1957.
October 9
In 1948, on this day US Army Major (retd) Dwight D. Eisenhower (pictured) showcased his first canvass to the famous German-American Artist Adolf Schicklegruber. "I displayed my version of Mamie," Eisenhower wrote, "weird and wonderful to behold, and we all laughed heartily".
The Art of Warfare by Ed. & Scott PalterAfter his retirement from the US military, Eisenhower had accepted a position of president of a military college in the Hudson Valley. A New York portrait artist, Thomas E. Stephens was commissioned to paint a portrait of Mamie Eisenhower, and Dwight Eisenhower watched the process with keen interest. While the artist and subject toured the house to look for the right place to hang the finished portrait, Eisenhower decided to try his hand at a painting using Stephens' brushes and mixed paints. He and an aide jury-rigged a canvas by stretching a clean dust cloth over a piece of cardboard. By the time his wife and Stephens returned, Eisenhower had finished his first painting.
Stephens mentioned the portrait to his friend Schicklegruber who had been living on the East Coast for a little under a year. Although encouraged by Stephens to keep painting, Eisenhower decided art was beyond him. However, a few days later, Schicklegruber mailed to Eishenhower a complete paint set and portable easel in a package Eisenhower said included "everything I could possibly need -- - except ability --- to start painting".
Once considered Walt Disney's favourite cartoonist, Adolf had furiously quit the studio, creating a long-running dispute with the over-involved owner. So much so, that in 1947, Disney testified before the House Un-American Activities Committee, where he branded Adolf Schicklegruber, Herbert Sorrell, David Hilberman and William Pomerance, animators and labor union organizers, as Communist agitators.
Disney's loss was Eisenhower's gain and in time, Schicklegruber's tutorage shaped Ike into a master of Western Landscapes. An overfavourable comparison with the works of post-modernist English painter Winston Churchill further stoked rivalry between the two. Already barely on speaking terms, Churchill would make disrespectful public remarks about Schicklegruber whilst touring the US the following year. Using a rather eliptic metaphor to describe the breakdown in their relationship, Churchill said that an "Iron Curtain" had descended between the two super-painters.
May 29
In 1919, on this otherwise unremarkable day Pte. Henry Teitelbaum was discharged from the Yorkshire Regiment (Green Howards). But the very next day he re-enlisted in the West Riding Regiment (Duke of Wellington's Regiment) and later shipped out to the Transcaucasian Democratic Federative Republic where he perished in the ill-fated defence of Tbilisi.
The Life of Happy Hitler Artist is saved by a Jewish Soldier in the "Deliverance at Marcoing"Unmarried, without children and an orphan he had served not only with distinction but also a level of emotional detachment bordering on brutal single-mindedness. One of Britain's most highly decorated infantrymen, he had enlisted before the war as a professional soldier. For sure absolutely no mercy had been shown by Teitelbaum either with the gun, the bomb, or if necessary, the bayonet. Yet there was one occasion where his inherent human decency was revealed. At the Battle of Marcoing he casually recorded under the "scores" in his diary a little note to self that "I took aim but couldn't shoot a wounded man, so I carried him to safety".
As Teitelbaum shipped out to find his death in the near East, that wounded man, a Lance Corporal Adolf Hitler was checking out of a British POW Field Hospital. Suffering from amnesia, he had no recollection of the recent conflict, let alone his earlier years on the mean streets of Vienna where his personal failures and disappointments had fuelled a resentment that grew into virulent anti-semitism. And so when he was discharged, he had to reconstruct a new purpose to his entire life as a whole person; but so much was broken that perhaps the defeated country that he returned to would have been unrecognisable even without the amnesia.
He unconsciously returned to dabbling in art, and some years later viewed the canvass Marcoing after Conservation by the Italian painter Fortunino Matania. Recognizing himself instantly, he purposefully set about tracing the brave man who had saved his life. Inevitably this accidental discovery began a long investigative process of many long years but eventually he found himself in a boarding house in Coventry holding the diary of a brave Jewish soldier by the name of Henry Teitelbaum. And sure enough on the page marked Sep 28, 1918 he finally found the tell-tale entry "I took aim but couldn't shoot a wounded man, so I carried him to safety.".. Standing in the doorway watching this emotional scene was Teitelbaum's nephew, William Whateley and it was to him that Hitler addressed his own tearful recollection "That man [your Uncle] came so close to killing me in 1918 that I thought I should never see Germany again". Because as the great man famously once said, Something had been missing in this harsh world, and that was love.
Author's Note: in this cross-over post with Greater Syria and Happy Hitler Artist's Masterpiece: The Deliverance at Marcoing we explore a suggestion of Jackie Rose and also the ideas of Robbie Taylor. In reality his real name was Henry Tandey and he was the British Soldier that allegedly spared the life of an injured Adolf Hitler. Hitler recognized Tandey in the painting, not himself. And Tandey was in Coventry wracked by guilt as the German Airforce bombed the city. He attempted to re-enlist in 1940 to get a second chance to kill Hitler but was denied due to his war-time injuries.
April 20
In 1889, on this day Walt Disney's favourite cartoonist Adolf Schicklgruber was born in Braunau am Inn, Austria-Hungary. A good student in elementary school, he quarrelled with his parents over his career plans. Young Schicklegruber dreamt of being a painter, instead of following in his father's steps as a custom's official. From 1905 on, he lived a bohemian life in Vienna. He was rejected twice by the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna (1907-1908) who cited "unfitness for painting," and was told his abilities lay instead in the field of architecture.
The Wonderful World of SchicklegruberOn 21 December 1907, Schicklegruber's mother died of breast cancer at age 47. When he was 21, he inherited money from an aunt and used the money to emigrate to the United States. It has been suggested that Schicklegruber and Disney shared a white supremacist perspective that formed the basis of their life-long partnership, however there is no evidence of this. Whether the artwork is indicative of a utopian mindset or not is of no importance to the millions of children who enjoyed the fruits of their collaborative work.
Yet one mystery remains unsolved. On February 23rd 2008, William Hakvaag, the director of a war museum in northern Norway, said he found drawings hidden in a painting signed 'A. Hitler' that he bought at an auction in Germany. He found coloured cartoons of the characters Bashful and Doc from the 1937 Disney film Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, which were signed A.H., and an unsigned sketch of Pinocchio as he appeared in the 1940 Disney film. Clearly drawn by Schicklegruber, it is considered probable that Hitler was a pen-name used by the artist, but the discovery of the canvasses in the Weimar Republic is completely inexplicable.

Todayinah Ed. says, in this thread we explore an unoriginal yet fascinating alt developed with Mr Robbie Taylor, that the Ratman calls "Happy Artist Hitler". We added a sinister edge to this by linking this to Walt Disney's own disturbing politics (which we suggest are exaggerated in his cartoon utopianism) because ultimately the thought of a happy Hitler is too weird.

As some of you might know, I work in the YA department at the Athens-Clarke County Library (Athens, Georgia). We cater to teens and tweens ages 11-18 and offer many great programs for them throughout the year. From chess to anime to murder mysteries, our YA department keeps local teens engaged and provides them with a safe place to learn and have fun. Unfortunately, our book collection hasn't been receiving the attention it deserves. To remedy this, we've dedicated 2014 to revamping our collection by adding more nonfiction, manga series, and ZINES! As the resident zinester, I've taken it upon myself to take charge of creating a zine library for our teen patrons. I've donated all, well, most, of my zine collection deemed age-appropriate, But, my collection isn't enough. We're in need of zines from local zinesters (Athens and Atlanta area), zines by and/or for teens, queer/gender/body-positive publications, and everything in-between. Most of our teen patrons have never had the opportunity to delve into the world of zines and we want to provide them with a wide range of topics and viewpoints with which to start their journey. Zines need to be appropriate for teens and tweens. We're not looking to censor content, but it does need to be relatable to the teen set and shouldn't get us in too much trouble with guardians. This project is just beginning and we have a budget of nothing. Because of this, we're looking for donations or trades for the time being. Once we get our zine library established, we plan to start a passive zine program in which teens will create content to be compiled in black and white zine format. As far as trades go, we can add your name to a mailing list for a copy of our teen zine once it is complete or work out some other form of trade. Zines don't have to be in mint condition, so we'll gladly accept those well-read copies that clutter your desk or bookcase. If you would like to contact me for more information on this project or to donate or trade, email me at berdmann<at>athenslibrary<d0t>org. If you can't trade or donate, then please consider sharing this post on Tumblr, Facebook, message boards, or anywhere else. Spread the word and help to expand the minds and world of Athens-area youth!
Thanks so much!
Signal boost!
I love this idea - and as a former YA Librarian for the ARLS (who also operated with a budget of nothing), I know just...
What a terrific project!
Hey, this is happening here! Lend them a hand, won't ya?

What do you think about the Armor enhanced items?
Sacrificing avoidance and along threat from RS, but the stacking with UB is pretty interesting.
What version of rawr are you using?I always ger results different from live server-and i havent figured out how to make it count my professions passive bonus.

Sometimes I do artsty-fartsy stuff and stick it on here. Everything on this account is original.
If you happen to pick up the latest Game Informer magazine issue, you just might see some original artwork in it by your's truly… and by "might" I mean "you will"… page 29… accompanying an article my brother, Kyle Hilliard, wrote on a Harvard study about video games occurring in dreams entitled "Dreaming of Video Games".
Here's a breakdown of all the steps involved, including having to completely resize it halfway through the project… Oh well, as the French say "c'est la FREELANCE ART!" (pretty sure they say that). Whole thing took about twenty-one hours. (click to enlarge… you know the drill).
My sister's boyfriend works the nightshift at a bakery a few times a week; a shift he worked the night before my sister's college graduation ceremony… and had to work again that night. Poor guy was willing to stay up thirty-six-plus hours just to attend (and there's no telling how little sleep he had before all this). And though he did a fantastic job of being cordial (found and saved us fantastic seats for the graduation, bought us pastries from the bakery where he works, recommended good food, showed us around a sweet comic book shop, and helped with a lot of little things), by law, my brother and I have to give him a little bit of a hard time if he's with our little sister. So, without further ado, we present to you: A Bunch of Vines of Dennis Nodding Off Throughout the Day.
The top picture was taken in early 2006 at a mutual friend's birthday party. Myself on the left, and Ashley on the right. At the time, we were little more than acquaintances and neither of us had much inclination that in a mere three years… we'd be siblings-in-law (Ashley married my brother). So, every now and then we like to bring that picture up and laugh at it. And now, eight years later, I decided to photoshop it to make it ever MORE dramatic. Why it took so long, I don't know…
My friend, Mr. Bran Oswalt (who appears in a few pictures), works for Brown Memorials in Florence, SC designing… well, memorials. He was out to do some field work/research and asked if I wanted to tag along to take cemetery pictures… he didn't have to ask twice. Exploring Magnolia Cemetery (I believe… could be wrong about that) in Latta, SC and Piney Grove Baptist Cemetery in Dillon, SC.
My friend Joel Moore (who plays guitar for the Charlotte, NC based metal band: Wretched), had the topmost picture taken of him… I found it irresistibly photoshop'able… so photoshop it I did.
Oh boy! It's pollen'ing outside! Spring is here! ♪ Do you want to build a pollen-man? ♫
A few pictures from Mt. Hope Cemetery in Florence, South Carolina during the February 2014 southern "SNOWPOCALPYSE" (more formally known as Winter Storm Pax).
Upgraded my phone. Now I can finally experiment with instagram video!
My brother, Kyle Hilliard (who's an associate editor with Game Informer… AKA not only does he love video games, they're his livelihood), named his daughter "Claire Chell" (Chell being the character you play as in the Portal video game series). So, since she's two, we figured it only right to give her a toddler-sized portal gun… though, of course, now there's portals all over the house (you REALLY have to watch where you step, don't want to fall into an infinity loop).
I LIKE FALL! So… I took some pictures. Nothing groundbreaking… mostly just therapeutic.

There is one going on in Activism, perhaps that's why there isn't one here?
Here in Portland, they cleared out one park, but left the other. It was an interesting decision, but sounds like it was mostly peaceful.

You may have heard this story of a 15-year-old kid (yada yada … rambling, overly long post follows)
Saw this on Anderson Cooper earlier. The video of the kid crying was absolutely heartbreaking. Fuck Chicago.
I didn't know Anderson Cooper covered this. I just found and watched the video of his report, and it's great!
But Anderson doesn't mention the racist website that started the whole thing. That's what struck me about all the reports I've seen on this … all of the bloggers and journalists covering this story seem to be missing the fact that a post on a "white power" site is what started all this.
And make no mistake: it was that racist "Detective Shaved Longcock" blogger who started it all. He was the first to to compare the kid's picture with supposed "gang art" — posting side-by-side comparisons of the sticker art with gang graffiti pics and "hand sign" pictures — and to claim the kid's picture was a secret gang message. He even pulled photos of the poor kid's Facebook page (since taken down) claiming the kid's friends were "flashing gang signs" and that the kid himself was wearing a "gang scarf" (which was just a red bandana around the kid's neck).
Some idiot ex-police superintendent named Jody Weis is credited with "investigating" and "substantiating" these claims for the city, but as far as I can tell, Weiss just used all the same stupid "gang art" and Facebook "evidence" that racist "Longcock" blogger originally dug up.
So everybody's missing the racist-blogger angle here. Why is the Chicago City Government listening to racist bloggers? (And why is that site reportedly so "popular with Chicago cops"?)

By Jason Sanford, ONA Manager of Communications and Content
ONA members know executive director Dennis Hetzel as the go-to person for all things related to Ohio newspapers, including advertising issues, open records requests, legislative lobbying, and much more. But very few members know that, in his spare time, Hetzel is also a fiction writer. Now his first novel Killing the Curse has been released, a sports-political thriller about the Chicago Cubs, a troubled sports-radio talk show host and a President of the United States with a long-ago secret.
"The Cubs are in the World Series, so you know it's fiction," Hetzel said about the novel, which is being released by Publisher Page, an imprint of Headline Books in Terra Alta, WV. The book was written in collaboration with Hetzel's friend and successful political thriller author Rick Robinson.
"I'm a lifelong Cubs fan who grew up in the Chicago suburbs," said Hetzel. "A World Series still seems a long ways away, and this year is the 100th anniversary of Wrigley Field. So, maybe the book can give fans a taste of success while we wait for success in the real world. However, fans should be prepared for plenty of curse-like frustration."
Killing the Curse will make its formal debut at the Book Expo America show in New York on May 28th with release of the trade paperback version scheduled for late June to retail outlets. The Kindle version is already available on Amazon.com where it opened in the Top 100 category for sports fiction, which includes books by authors such as Stephen King and John Grisham. The book also recently won an honorable mention in the San Francisco Book Festival competition – the first competition in which it was entered.
Hetzel said that any ONA members interested in copies for review or promotional purposes can contact him through his personal e-mail, email@example.com, or by calling 614-940-5067.
Included below is promotional copy for Hetzel's novel.
The Chicago Cubs haven't won a World Series for more than 100 years or even played in one since 1945. Now they're positioned to win the Series for the first time since 1908 – if only curses and bad luck don't haunt them as usual. That's what happens when a swarm of gnats helps the Boston Red Sox tie the Series at three games each. To kill the curse, the Cubs must win Game 7 in Chicago.
No one wants the Cubs to win more than Luke Murphy, President of the United States and lifelong fan. Leading the disbelievers is Murphy's boyhood friend, Bob Walters, a sports radio talk-show host with a beautiful daughter and a big ego who built ratings by being "the man Cub fans love to hate."
The Cubs have someone else on their side—a brilliant, crazed fan who will do anything to make sure they win. Anything. It starts with an attack on the father of Boston's best pitcher and grows into an escalating threat that could destroy Murphy's career, expose childhood secrets, and kill hundreds of innocent people.
Everything comes to a head as Game Seven unfolds — a game the Cubs must win no matter what.
"Hetzel draws skillfully on top-level reporting experience, a keen understanding of the often fragile (and sometimes twisted) human condition and his lifetime membership in the fellowship of long-suffering Cub fans. The man, in other words, knows his stuff. 'Killing the Curse' truly touches 'em all."
—Brian Davis, sportscaster
"A true Cubs fan, Dennis Hetzel long ago blew by the first four stages of grief and now resides in the final stage – acceptance. 'Killing The Curse' imagines the consequences of a deranged fan's inability to achieve this peaceful state and does so in a gripping thriller that holds the reader's attention like a perfect game."
—Jack Greiner, attorney, lecturer, and lifelong Cincinnati Reds fan
P.S. from Dennis Hetzel:
I am not the only ONA staff member to be a published author. Our communication and content manager, Jason Sanford, is making quite a name for himself as a science fiction writer. Click here for more information about Jason and his books.

Bead Bar's bead baristas guide jewelry crafters with a wealth of bauble knowledge, provisioning projects from the amply stocked store. Students can bring their own spirited refreshments to make sessions merrier, journeying past bead-bedazzled walls and cascades of clasps to reach the workshop, where they'll discover the basics of jewelry creation during basic stringing and crimping classes (click here to view the schedule). After pupils choose one of five bracelet kits—which include a clasp, four fire-ball beads, finishing beads, wire, wire guards, and a strand of firepolish beads—instructors model foundational stringing techniques and imbue new crafters with a sense of symmetry and color combinations. Bracelet makers learn how to highlight feature beads and artfully select accent beads, then take an oath to use filler beads only for fighting crimes of bare-wristedness. To bring closure to both classes and adornments, the staff imparts advice on selecting clasps to make sure bracelets can't leave wrists or ankles without asking permission first.

A master in the art of living draws no sharp distinction between his work and his play; his labor and his leisure; his mind and his body; his education and his recreation. He hardly knows which is which. He simply pursues his vision of excellence through whatever he is doing, and leaves others to determine whether he is working or playing. To himself, he always appears to be doing both.

My friend Ciara ran up to me with a picture of some different giraffe nails, so I mixed it up a little…I made it neater and my giraffe looks different, and I also made the background bright pink! It's Passionate Pink from the Revlon Colorstay line. Everything else is acrylic paint. I really love these, I've never done nails that connect like the neck of the giraffe does on these, it's pretty cool!
Sorry it's a little bright :/ These were so difficult to photograph, lolz.

Eye puffiness due to insomnia for 8 years
- Jujubes
- 1 year ago
Hi, I've had lower eye puffiness for the last 8 years. I think it's due to my insomnia. I've been sleeping more for the last 2 months, regular sleeping schedule and at least 7 hours of sleep. Will my puffiness go away or will I need lower eyelid surgery? I'm 31 now and my bags/insomnia started at 23 years old

TSA-Newark Technology Pilot Focuses Not on Bags, But Trucks
Pilot program focuses on security of airport vehicle access
One aspect of U.S. aviation security that has gotten scant attention so far -- airport vehicle access -- was the target of a successful pilot program recently wrapped up at Newark Liberty Int'l Airport (LPG) in New Jersey.
In a 200-plus-page evaluation released in December, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) gave a definite -- if not exactly ringing -- endorsement of a system that was applied to a limited number (80) of LPG vehicles by ID Systems Inc. of Hackensack, N.J. "This technology is effective against some insider threat tactics as well as the threat of a stolen or hijacked ramp vehicle used for terrorist actions," author Anthony T. Cerino writes for the TSA.
Cerino also lists many other specific system benchmarks that performed well, such as the user-friendliness of the interface for drivers, the automatic logging out of drivers after they're finished with a vehicle, and allowing central command to turn off selected vehicles in case of an emergency. But the one-year Newark demonstration did not involve any security incidents. Also, it ended in the middle of last year, after which time the system apparently was dismantled.
ID Systems' approach at Newark had two main components. One was an access-control reader -- for which drivers swiped an ID card and entered a pin code -- before being able to start the vehicle. The second was the use of radio frequency identification (RFID) tags on the vehicles, so their movements could be followed.
Vehicles have figured in a fair number of security breaches at airports. Perhaps the most recent was in the early morning hours of March 6 at John F. Kennedy Int'l Airport (NYC) in New York, where an elderly driver passed through two guard gates and got onto the tarmac.
Other incidents have involved unauthorized people who had already gained access to a secure area, and then commandeered vehicles to make things worse. Such an incident, also at night, happened last August 25 at Muhlenberg County Airport (M21) in Greenville, Ky. After knocking down a gate, thieves stole a fuel truck with 2,000 gallons of jet fuel.
Before the Newark Airport demonstration, ID Systems had installed worker access control systems for clients such as the Target chain of retail stores. For a big department store, it's a relatively simple system to set up because there isn't a problem with granting most employees access to most areas, ID Systems' Ken Ehrman tells Air Safety Week. But airports are a different animal. Vendors and caterers don't need to go where fuel trucks go or where police go, and visa versa. So there were some modifications.
Authorized drivers at Newark were issued ID cards with a raft of information encoded on them--besides their names, this included the types of vehicle(s) they could use, where they could take the vehicles, and on what day of the week or the time of day the access was valid. If there was a mismatch, or some piece of information was missing, then the vehicle couldn't be started.
Each vehicle's access device also was able to store the entire systems' worth of data. So if there was a large emergency, and power was cut off, authorized drivers (such as police) would still be able to use their cars. This type of fall-back mode is very important, as is the ability not to jam up if many drivers suddenly access the system at the same time, Ehrman points out.
Another feature at Newark was "geofencing." If a driver and/or a vehicle were to start leaving an authorized area, the driver would first get an alarm. If the driver kept going in the wrong direction, the vehicle would have been shut off.
With RFID antennas on every vehicle, central command can keep tack of who is driving where, and is alerted when something is wrong. Such a feature also allows system operators to punch in a date, and review all the vehicle traffic that occurred over a selected area within a certain time frame, Ehrman adds. That's especially handy for finding additional people to interview during an investigation.

Initial genetic characterization of the S-OIV outbreak by the United States Centers for Disease Control suggested swine as its probable source, on the basis of sequence similarity to previously reported swine influenza isolates (CDC, 2009a). Classical swine H1N1 viruses have circulated in pigs in North America and other regions for at least 80 years (CDC, 2009a). In 1998, a new triple- reassortant H3N2 virus—comprising genes from classical swine H1N1, North American avian, and human H3N2 (A/Sydney/5/97-like) influenza—was reported as the cause of outbreaks in North American swine, with subsequent establishment in pig populations (CDC, 2009a; Shortridge et al., 1977). Co-circulation and mixing of the triple-reassortant H3N2 with established swine lineages subsequently generated further H1N1 and H1N2 reassortant swine viruses (CDC, 2009a; Shortridge et al., 1977; Shope and Lewis, 1931) which have caused sporadic human infections in the United States since 2005 (Newman et al., 2008; Shinde et al., in press). Consequently, human infection with H1N1 swine influenza has been a nationally notifiable disease in the United States since 2007 (CDC, 2009a,b). In Europe, an avian H1N1 virus was introduced to pigs ('avian-like' swine H1N1) and first detected in Belgium in 1979 (Pensaert et al., 1981; CDC, 2009a). This lineage became established and gradually replaced classical swine H1N1 viruses, and also reassorted in pigs with human H3N2 viruses (A/PortChalmers/1/1973-like) (CDC, 2009a). It is noteworthy that, until now, there has been no evidence of Eurasian avian-like swine H1N1 circulating in North American pigs. In Asia, the classical swine influenza lineage circulates, in addition to other identified viruses, including human H3N2, Eurasian avian-like H1N1, and North American triple-reassortant H3N2 (Peiris et al., 2001; Jung and Song, 2007; CDC, 2009a; Shortridge, 1977).
Using comprehensive phylogenetic analyses, we have estimated a temporal reconstruction of the complex reassortment history of the S-OIV outbreak, summarized in Fig. A14-1 (Methods). Our analyses showed that each segment of the S-OIV genome was nested within a well-established swine influenza lineage (that is, a lineage circulating primarily in swine for >10 years before the current outbreak). The most parsimonious interpretation of these results is therefore that the progenitor of the S-OIV epidemic originated in pigs. Some transmission of swine influenza has, however, been observed in secondary hosts in North America, for example, in turkeys (CDC, 2009a). Although the precise evolutionary pathway of the genesis of S-OIV is greatly hindered by the lack of surveillance data (see later), we can conclude that the polymerase genes, plus HA, NP and NS, emerged from a triple-reassortant virus circulating in North American swine. The source triple-reassortant itself comprised genes derived from avian (PB2 and PA), human H3N2 (PB1) and classical swine (HA, NP and NS) lineages. In contrast, the NA and M gene segments have their origin in the Eurasian avian-like swine H1N1 lineage. Phylogenetic analyses from the early days of the outbreak, on the basis of the first publicly available sequences, quickly established this multiple genetic origin (Novel Swine-Origin Influenza A (H1N1) Virus Investigation Team, in

EOC Situation Report #21
EOC Situation Report #21
Influenza A(H1N1)
Thursday, 11 June 2009
6:00 pm, EDT
- The World Health Organization raised its global pandemic alert level to Phase 6 today. This means that sustained community transmission of a new influenza virus has now been confirmed in more than one WHO region, and that a global pandemic is now officially declared. Read the Director General's statement to the press.
- It is important to note that the change in phase reflects geographical spread of the new influenza A (H1N1) virus, and not the severity of illness that it causes.
- At this time, WHO considers the overall severity of the influenza pandemic to be moderate. This assessment is based on scientific evidence available to WHO, as well as input from its Member States on the pandemic's impact on their health systems, and their social and economic functioning.
- Countries should prepare to see cases, or the further spread of cases, in the near future. Countries where outbreaks appear to have peaked should prepare for a second wave of infection.
- Guidance on specific protective and precautionary measures has been sent to ministries of health in all countries. Countries with no or only a few cases should remain vigilant.
- Countries with widespread transmission should focus on the appropriate management of patients. The testing and investigation of patients should be limited, as such measures are resource intensive and can very quickly strain capacities.
- WHO continues to recommend no restrictions on travel and no border closures.
- For the latest reports on the status of Influenza A(H1N1) in the Americas please check the daily epidemiological alerts available in the PAHO website.
- Guidance for national authorities.
- PAHO's influenza A (H1N1) portal.
- Pan American Health Organization website.
- World Health Organization website.
- For constant updates on the influenza A(H1N1) situation, check the PAHO and WHO channels in Twitter.

A little bit about us:
I know that it says we're in the Austin area, but that's only because that's the nearest one to us!
We actually live in Amarillo, TX and are both Texans by birth. He works retail and I work for the city taking 911 calls. We've lived together for two months now and we've been officially dating since January. I've known him for a little more than a year and we met online (twice! First time I blew him off. My bad!).
He turned 23 in March and I turn 21 in September. We have no children, but at the moment we have a corgi, a shihtzu, 4 shihtzu mix puppes, and 4 cats. Quite the houseful :) But they're all very loved and spoiled!
Both of us love the color green and it shows: he drives a green car, our bedroom is painted green, and of course my engagement ring is green! So it was just natural to get married on the greenest of days, St Patrick's Day! He has Irish heritage and so that just makes it that much more special.
While most of the plans are still up in the air, this week I am focusing on finding the perfect engagement ring for him. We are planning on both of us having an engagement ring and a wedding ring.

My ring is Emerald, and I love it...
We're set to be wed on St. Patrick's Day next year, and we're of course having a green wedding! I can't wait!

text: bnobby 5pts Trying not to be condescending but coming to an auto blog and seeing all the comments about MB being so well thought of shows me how many people are just blind loyalists and never really drive more than one car for any length of time. For the past 3 summers I've had the distinguished honor of driving Audi, MB, Cadillac, BMW and Porsche across the country w a group of fresh out of college students. Any of whom should love any of these cars. It has never failed across three summers - the least favorite of every single college student but one (and the much older leaders of the tours) has been the MB. That includes the CLS550, the S550, the E350 and the GLK. Every year they've come in dead last out of all the brands as far as fun to drive, dependability, and cost of upkeep over the summer. The MB even had most of the seals break around the plastic turn signals in the side mirrors creating a good amount of condensation within the first two months. The CLA was designed and built by young designers MB went out and hired to develop a car for the younger generation. Problem is it still drives like a MB - if the CLS is going to start falling apart in 2 months I can't even imagine what the cheaper built CLA is going to do.

Despite his 2 Cy Young awards and incredibly dominant performance during his 2 seasons with the Jays, Gaston didn't exactly have glowing praise for Clemens, especially upon hearing news about a claim in Jeff Pearlman's book entitled The Rocket That Fell to Earth, that Clemens may have had a hand in Gaston's firing, and the hiring of Tim Johnson, Gaston's replacement.
Gaston also said that Clemens went so far as to threaten Gaston's job, by asking him if he wanted to keep his job or lose it. He even challenged Gaston's managerial decisions, in terms of pitching changes.
Apparently Clemens never had the stones to challenge Gaston to his face, however.
This really doesn't come as much of a surprise. Not many people would confuse Clemens with a classy or nice guy. Now, with Pearlman's new book, even more stories will come out, and we'll see this guy for the elitist joker that he is.

I think he will end up in Arizona too.
I know there are many detractors here but the guy has talent and has always found himself in awful situations. Some of the blame belongs to him too. But he has had some decent years so it is not like he is a myth like some of these other guys.
Too much of a logjam at QB right now for the Jets, but i think Carson Palmer is a top 8 pure passer in the league.
My point is that at least Palmer has put together an entire season of good QB play. Nobody we have on our roster nor the Kolbs and Flynns of the world can say that.
Also think about the dysfunction he has been a part of. The Bengals were a mess when he was there and then he went to the Raiders.
The only reason I don't want him is b.c I want to start over with a young QB and build.
I'd be surprised if he is not a Cardinal within 2 weeks of being released. They are the only team that could win now with a veteran QB. In fact, I'll go out on a limb and say that if the Cards sign Palmer, he ends up having a 1998 type Vinny Testaverde season. Cards have a really good D, and a beast WR in Fitz. The recipe for success is there.
I'd take him over Garrad/tebow/mcilroy
When he first came out I thought he was going to be a really good Qb. I thought it was exactly what Bengals needed. Then I watched him on Hard Knocks and he was an arrogant obnoxious guy to his offense. Ever since then never cared for him.
Palmer is way better than anything on the Jets. Has a better upside as strange as it may sound. Kolb is my #2 choice.
It all depends on price. But then there's that Sanchez contract weight on the Jets shoulders.
What an awful trade for the Raiders Palmer turned out to be. Hugh Jackson totally screwed them.
But maybe Sanchez would be a good fit for them.
