Rated 5 out of 5Â by zecjosh Comfortable casual dress This is a soft, comfortable and roomy dress. I usually need a small, the XS is roomy. I wear a lace trim tank inside as the neckline and arm hole cutting is big. At 5' 2" the back of the dress almost touches the floor for me but not a bother. It is nice for shopping and having tea with friends. A nice go-to dress. 11.20.2013
Rated 2 out of 5Â by Josefina_I Very Loose This dress is not bad, the fabric and color are very nice. The only thing is that it's super wide. This cannot be seen in the picture as the model is standing with an arm to her waist and the other arm "hiding" the fact that the dress is just very big. If you're looking for something like a tent or you can style it with a belt or something, go for it. It was just too wide for me. 10.25.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Ashburn Very Comfy This dress is so comfortable and very soft. I ordered xs and still very roomy on me. I'm 5feet and the back was touching the ground a little but when I walk, the back of the dress just flows around and doesn't touch the ground. Just love this dress......... 10.24.2013

Cream Brook Farm Calling Card, Stetson, ca. 1907
Contributed by an individual through Stetson Historical Society
The Cream Brook Farm property was originally owned by the Stetson family, for whom the town of Stetson was named. Amasa Stetson II cleared the land and established the one mile square farm.
By 1863 the farm was owned by M.E. Rice who expanded the operations to include more livestock and farm acreage. The farm was next owned by Grenville J. Shaw who was a well known and respected breeder of trotting horses.
Around 1889 the farm was purchased by Alphonso S. Rand, who with his sons Fred Blaine and Clyde C., raised Mt. Katahdin and Granger, "The World's Largest Oxen".

Phoenix car dealer, Attorney General's Office reach settlement
PHOENIX -- The owners of a Phoenix car dealership will be paying over $100,000 in fines after agreeing to a consent judgment in a lawsuit brought by the Arizona Attorney General's Office.
Prieto's Auto Sales, owned by Gustavo and Rita Prieto, was accused of failing to inspect vehicles and make repairs and selling vehicles to which they did not hold title, among several issues, the Attorney General's Office said.
Consent judgment will make it possible for Tom Horne's office to keep an eye on the dealership.
"We have a long list of promises that they've made in the consent judgment of activities that they would not engage in, so that we're sure that they stop defrauding consumers," Horne said.
The lawsuit started after a customer filed a complaint against the dealership. Victims of wrongdoing will receive $15,000 of the settlement money.

Trade in Maya civilization
|This article needs additional citations for verification. (October 2013)
|Maya civilization
|Preclassic Maya
|Classic Maya collapse
|Spanish conquest of the Maya
Trade in Maya civilization was a crucial factor in renaming Maya cities. The economy was a mixed capitalist/command system combining free market trade and direct government control over areas considered vital to the population of any specific state. Maya economics functioned on a simple supply and demand theory.[1]
Chief staples of Maya economic activities were centered primarily around foods like fish, squash, yams, corn, honey, beans, turkey, vegetables, chocolate drinks; raw materials such as limestone, marble, jade, wood, copper and gold; and manufactured goods such as paper, books, furniture, jewelry, clothing, carvings, toys, weapons, and luxury goods. The Maya also had an important service sector, through which mathematicians, farming consultants, artisans, architects, astronomers, pilots, scribes and artists would sell their services.
Specialized craftsmen also played a large part, creating luxury items and developing devices to overcome specific problems usually by royal decree. They also engaged in long range trade of almost any other necessities such as salt, fish, stone and luxury items because there was a large need for trade in order to bring such basic goods together. The types of trade varied greatly regionally with specific districts of kingdoms typically specializing in a specific trade which contained workers of every skill set needed to produce their designated specialty. Areas were typically given a designated specialty based upon the resources available in their areas which allowed for very rapid production and distribution of a regions products.
The Maya relied on a strong middle class of skilled and semi-skilled workers and artisans which produced both commodities and specialized goods.[2]Governing this middle class was smaller class of specially educated merchant governors who would direct regional economies based upon simple supply and demand analysis who would place mass orders as needed by other regions. This merchant-governor class was responsible for trade of commodities while the middle class directed how specialized items such as furniture and tools were produced based upon their demand for them. Above the merchants were highly skilled specialists such as artists, mathematicians, architects, advisers, astronomers. The specialist class would sell their services and create luxury goods based upon their specific skill set. At the top of the structure was the King and his array of advisers who would manage trade with other kingdoms, ensure that regions remained stable, inject capital into specific sectors and authorize construction of large public works.
The Maya used several different mediums of exchange and in the trading of food commodities the barter system was typically used for large orders. Cocoa beans were used for everyday exchange in postclassic times. For more expensive purchases gold, jade and copper were used as a means of exchange.[3]
Because of the readily available trade resources and local merchants in most of the Maya territory, small towns did not need to take part in long-distance trading and limited trade to local exchange. Despite the fact that the area was rich in resources, even the most self-sufficient farm families, which were the vast majority of the population, still had to participate in exchanges in order to obtain the necessities (the necessities would generally include some pottery, bronze or copper tools, salt, and imported fish for inland areas). As craftsmen in small cities began to specialize and the cities began to grow, so did the need for increased trade. Cities such as Tikal and El Mirador are two such examples. Tikal, specifically, had a population somewhere in the range of 60,000–120,000 people, which means it would have needed to get food and other goods from up to 100 km away. Because of the size of these, they would have also needed a larger amount of control from the Rulers to oversee it. Eventually the increased trade, and growing cities gave the Rulers more power over their territory and their subjects.
However, not only the central cities in the empire grew. Because of the increased amount of traffic through the smaller cities along trade routes, these once isolated cities grew too, creating a fairly consistent amount of growth throughout the Post-Classic period.
Evidence discovered in the past few decades seems to prove that trade was widespread among the Maya. Artifacts collected under grants from the National Science Foundation, the National Geographic Society, and Howard University, show that hard stones and many other goods were moved great distances (despite the inefficiency of moving goods without so-called 'beasts of burden'). Modern chemical tests have taken these artifacts and confirmed that they originated in locations great distances away. There is also documented trade of goods ranging from honey to quetzal feathers throughout the Maya region.
The goods, which were moved and traded around the empire at long distance, include: salt, fish, hard stone, Maize, Honey, Cocoa, Pottery and manufactured goods such as paper.[4]
And for the elites, such goods as: Quetzal Feathers, Fine Ceramics, Jade, Obsidian and Pyrite. Textiles and other artworks were often traded for as well because they were easily transported. Other food stuffs, furniture and commodities like wood were usually regionally traded.
As trade grew in the Postclassic period, so did the demand for commodities. Many of these were produced in large specialized factory-like workshops around the empire, and then transported elsewhere. Some of these commodities included, fine ceramics, stone tools, paper, jade, pyrite, quetzal feathers, cocoa beans, obsidian, copper, bronze and salt.[5]
Mostly the main population used the more basic commodities, such as stone tools, salt, cocoa beans, fish and manufactured goods such as books and ceramics and wood items. But some of the other commodities like jade, pyrite, fine ceramics and furniture, luxury goods and quetzal feathers were goods that upper class and rulers used to show off their power.
Arguably the most important of these commodities was salt. Salt was not only an important part of the Maya diet, but it also was critical in the preservation of food. By covering meat and other food items in salt the Maya were able to dehydrate it so that it would not rot. Salt, for the most part, was produced near the oceans by drying out large flats of seawater. After the flats were dry, the salt could be collected and moved throughout the empire.
Chocolate was used throughout the Maya region to make sauces, and for drinks. It was grown mostly in the lowlands, so it was often transported to the highlands.
Ceramics and furniture were produced in specialized workshops, before being traded for other goods. Often the work produced by a particular artist, or workhouse was heavily sought after by the elite classes of Maya society and therefore artists were usually supported by and primarily catered to the wealthy.[6] Art goods such as jade carvings, paintings, ornate furniture and metal ornaments were also circulated through kingdoms, and local areas amongst the elite classes. This was usually the case because of the strong symbol of power and wealth the fine arts provided. The ceramics produced were mainly plates, vases, and cylindrical drinking vessels. When painted, these pots were usually painted red, with gold and black detailing.
Rare stones such as jade and pyrite were also very important to the Maya elite. These stones were relatively hard to acquire, so having such treasures helped them to solidify their positions in the society. Many of the stones were collected in the highlands of the empire in Guatemala, so when long-distance trade developed, the Maya were able to move more of the these precious stones to the lowland cities.
Other stones, such as obsidian, were more common, but were also a crucial part of Maya society. Obsidian was a strong volcanic glass, also from the highlands, which could be chipped and shaped into strong sharp tools in order to be used for cutting. In the later years of the Empire obsidian was moved extensively via long-distance trade routes.
During the early periods of the Maya, much of these commodities were only available to the regions in which they could be produced, or were naturally available. However, economic restructuring during the transition from the Classic to the Postclassic periods, as well as the beginning of trade over water allowed for larger volumes of long-distance trade to occur, and therefore the commodities were able to reach throughout the entire Maya region.

Alaska Airlines is now the fifth carrier to order a split-tip scimitar winglet to retrofit on the Boeing 737NG.
The deal with Aviation Partners Boeing calls for installing the fuel-reducing devices on 111 aircraft in the Alaska Airlines fleet.
The contract covers all of the carrier's 737-900ERs and most 737-800s and 737-900s, Alaska Airlines says.
Aviation Partners Boeing will begin the installations for Alaska Airlines early next year and complete the work in 2017.
The winglet should save $20 million a year by reducing fuel consumption by 220,000l (58,000gal) per aircraft, Alaska Airlines says.
United, UPS, TUI Travel and Copa Airlines also have ordered the split-tip scimitar winglet for 737NGs.
The new configuration adds strengthened spars, scimitar-shaped caps and a large ventral strake to the original blended winglets.
The design is expected to improve the aerodynamic efficiency in the outboard section of the wing.

COVINGTON -- The Newton boys basketball head coach Rick Rasmussen will hold his second Coach Rasmussen's Summer Youth Mini Camp at the Newton High School gymnasium starting Monday.
The three-day camp is for boys going into third through eighth grade from 9 a.m. until noon. For $30, each player will learn the fundamentals of basketball including drills and techniques that have helped the Rams win more than 75 percent of their games in the past 14 seasons, winning region titles in 2001, 2003, 2010 and 2011, while making deep playoff runs in the state tournament for two days.
On the third day participants will be broken down into teams and they will play a game. The fee also includes a drink and a snack during their break.
The camp will be run by Rick Rasmussen and his staff, with assistance from current Rams players.
Players will be grouped by similar age and skill in one of three levels, so that it will be a positive experience. "People can sign up the day they get here on 8:30 on Monday," Rasmussen said. "I encourage any guys in the county to come."
More information can be obtained at the Newton High School website by clicking on the Sports and Clubs link, then on Boys Basketball.

They've been serving their signature pies since 1933, and today, they bake each of them inside a coal-fueled oven at temperatures upwards of 900 degrees. Atop regular, whole-wheat, or gluten-free dough, chefs add toppings such as meatballs and arugula. They also assemble a handful of specialty pizzas, crowned with everything from caramelized onions to whole chopped clams. Items like eggplant parmesan and pepperoni chips round out the menu, complemented by wine, beer, and after-dinner cappuccinos.345 Main StHuntington, NY US

© Copyright 2015 Clayton News Daily
By M.J. Subiria Arauz
Business leaders, regional planners, elected officials and others spent time Tuesday networking and educating themselves on transportation and economic-development issues in the south-metro-Atlanta region, at the "9th Annual South Metro Development Outlook" conference.
The influential gathering, hosted annually by the Collaborative Firm, LLC, was held at the Georgia International Convention Center, in College Park. It is considered one of metro Atlanta's premiere development forums.
Several key figures in the Southern Crescent and the City of Atlanta served as panelists, during the discussion of transportation issues centered around House Bill 277, which was passed last year by the General Assembly, and allows communities to ban together into regions to address common transportation needs.
The discussion, entitled "House Bill 277: Georgia's Transportation Policy," included Todd Long, director of planning for the Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT); Elizabeth "B.J." Mathis, chairman of the Henry County Board of Commissioners, and Eldrin Bell, chairman of the Clayton County Board of Commissioners.
Long said the reason the state of Georgia doesn't have a passenger rail system is because there aren't enough funds to support it. "There is no dedicated funding source for rail," he said.
House Bill 277, also known as the Transportation Investment Act of 2010, will allow the public to vote on a one-percent sales tax for transportation projects in their corresponding regions, which may include a commuter rail line, if proposed by local government officials, according to Long. There are 12 regions in Georgia, he added.
Currently, GDOT's planning division is accepting transportation-project requests from local governments -- until March 30, he said. The 12 regional organizations will develop a refined list of the projects by Aug. 15.
Long said, if Georgians refuse to vote on the one-percent sales tax for the projects, the state is back to square one on bettering its transportation system. "This is it," he said. "There is no Plan B."
Henry County Commission Chairman "B.J." Mathis said her county has mixed responses to the bill. "We certainly have our work cut out for us," she said. "We [Henry County] are in an anti-tax environment."
She said the bill will benefit the county directly, by relieving traffic congestion and spurring economic prosperity, and that she is educating her board about the bill, and its importance to Henry County.
"The five board members that are with me, don't understand why we are a part of a region in the first place," said Mathis. Henry County, she explained, has grown rapidly in population over the years, and traffic congestion has become a serious issue. Henry residents need to be assured that the one-percent tax they will be contributing for transportation projects are going to directly benefit the county, she said.
"We're paying the extra penny, we want to see it in our own backyard," said Mathis.
She said she is urging voters to remain positive and have trust in the politicians who are behind the bill. "We don't have to give it the kiss of death before the project lists come out," she said.
She said transportation projects being considered for her county include: the entire Highway 42 corridor, and Highway 155 from Interstate 75 to the Spalding County line.
Those roads, she said, are so congested, they need to be modified for drivers of tractor trailers and regular vehicles. The county houses a lot of industrial warehouses, she said, and it "wouldn't be good for the county, if the roads and traffic congestion repel these businesses."
Eldrin Bell, Clayton's commission chairman, said politicians aren't educating the public enough about the bill. He would like to see the member governments of the 10-county Atlanta Regional Commission, which includes Henry and Clayton, deliver the information to their residents. "Yes, it costs money, but how much will ignorance cost?" he asked.
He said public transit has always been a hot topic among Georgia politicians. "There are mixed feelings about funding transit, but there are no mixed feelings of our public wanting it," he added.
Bell said several transportation issues in Clayton County need to be addressed, including the interchange from Interstate 75, to Interstate 285, the numerous bridges in disrepair, and a source of mass transit for the county's residents.
"I have MARTA [Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority] working on a plan to include local transit [in Clayton County], with ... east and west corridors," said Bell. "Lovejoy must be included, and seniors must be given high priority."

Tall Firs: 21 years of saditude:
Dave Mies and Aaron Mullan have been pals since junior high school. Starting in 1990, they literally taught each other how to play guitar, wood-shedding shoulder to shoulder. The first complete tune they could ever play start to finish was the Circle Jerks' 'Beat Me Senseless'; soon afterward they took on Mississippi John Hurt's 'Payday'. Today they continue to refine a creole guitar language that is pretty much a two-man weave between those same disparate destinations...

So an accountant, a lawyer and a smart Blonde walk into a bar....
I'm a confident, independent, single mom who like everyone else would like to meet someone to have fun with whether that is going out or staying in. I am a Colorado native and love everything outdoors anytime of year. I am very passionate and enjoy the theatre, sports and traveling. I'm willing to try anything once - maybe even twice (including online dating). I believe that honesty and being upfront is the best policy. I'm not interesting in getting married, but am not opposed to a serious relationship or new friendship. I am punctual, mean what I say, and despise drama. I have consolidated by 'baggage' to one carry on and keep it in the closet in the basement. I'm easy going and appreciate good food and good conversation. I love to laugh til my cheeks hurt. I'm not afraid to debate and can hold my own on almost any topic. I have a great work/life balance, and leave work at the office as much as possible. My daughter is the love of my life and family is extremely important to me. I could go on and on, but face time is preferable to really find out about someone and all their quirks. As far as what I'm looking for in a match: I don't have a 'type' and would like a man with similar interests and smarts. Someone that I can have an easy conversation with or be comfortable with a moment of silence. Likes kissing is a must. If you're interested send me an email with your idea of a fun date. "There is a story about the Greek Gods; they were bored so they invented human beings, but they were still bored so they invented love, then they weren't bored any longer. So they decided to try love for themselves. And finally, they invented laughter, so they could stand it.

The officials warned Richt after a helmetless redshirting freshman ran near the end zone to congratulate Bruce Figgins for his touchdown, reminding the coach that rules prohibit players from running onto the field without a helmet. Richt said the coaching staff was trying to disseminate that reminder on the sideline when Rambo returned an interception for a touchdown only three plays after Figgins' touchdown. The Bulldogs drew a 15-yard unsportsmanlike conduct when several excited helmetless players joined in the celebration without having received Richt's warning yet.

Syfy's New Original Series DEEP SOUTH PARANORMAL to Premiere 4/10
The quest for proof of the paranormal goes deeper than ever - Deep South that is - and in Syfy's all-new original series DEEP SOUTH PARANORMAL, it takes a colorful team of local pros to investigate these Restless southern souls. The 6-episode series produced by BASE Productions premieres Wednesday, April 10 at 10 PM (ET/PT).
Deep South Paranormal Research is a bayou-based team on a mission. Steeped in the rich history of their homeland, they want to unlock the mysteries that have baffled Southerners for years. They are a homegrown blend of Cajun, Creole and self-proclaimed rednecks who share a passion for this part of the country and the paranormal events that take place there. They take on anything from swamp apparitions to haunted plantation houses and Southern voodoo legends.
The fun-loving charm of these larger-than-life characters becomes deadly serious when it comes to their investigations, which deal not only with the hazards of paranormal phenomenon, but with physical dangers like gators, snakes, spiders, wild hogs, and mosquitos.
Investigations this season include Alabama's Bear Creek Swamp, the Old Cahawba ghost town, Florida's Manntown Cemetery and the Mont Helena Plantation in the Mississippi Delta, to name just a few.
Deep South Paranormal is produced by BASE Productions. John Brenkus and Mickey Stern serve as executive producers.
Syfy is a media destination for imagination-based entertainment. With year round acclaimed original series, events, blockbuster movies, classic science fiction and fantasy programming, a dynamic Web site (www.Syfy.com), and a portfolio of adjacent business (Syfy Ventures), Syfy is a passport to limitless possibilities.

Real Housewives of New Jersey Season 4 Promises Lots of Teresa Drama
Originally posted 03/22/2012 01:45PM
Teresa Giudice has always had a way of getting into trouble on The Real Housewives of New Jersey. And based on a first look at the show's fourth season, it seems like she's at it again.
Giudice has already publicly clashed with costar Caroline Manzo, who accused the Celebrity Apprentice contestant of trying to destroy her family by exposing a feud with her sister Dina Manzo, a former cast member who remained friendly with Giudice.
Will they make up in season 4?

Teresa Giudice may be known as the main chef in her family, but sister-in-law Melissa Gorga also enjoys time well spent in the kitchen.
In fact, the Real Housewives of New Jersey star tells PEOPLE she can cook up a mean linguine dish – and mix an equally delicious cocktail.
"I love cooking in the kitchen with my family, with everyone picking at the food before it makes it to the table," the Voli vodka ambassador tells PEOPLE.
As for her signature dish, she says it's "a traditional family recipe" best sipped with a pomegranate Voli martini, which she calls "light, refreshing, sweet and sour."
She also says Teresa's been a big help and teacher in the kitchen. "I am a good cook, but nothing compares to my sister," Gorga says. "She is a pro. She sometimes teaches me her secret recipes."

Dina Manzo Talks About New Jersey's Real Housewives … for the Last Time
Originally posted 10/24/2011 08:30AM
Everyone's always pressing Dina Manzo for dirt about her old show, the Real Housewives of New Jersey. Now, the former cast member is coming clean – in what she claims will be the last time she'll ever speak about the Bravo show.
"It's a shame this TV show used to be about our lives and now some lives are just about a TV show. That's not how it should be," Manzo, 39, writes in a lengthy blog post on her website.
Manzo, now host of HGTV's event-planning show Dina's Party, recaps why she left the Housewives – she needed to escape "all of the toxic behavior" – and admit she distanced herself from all of the housewives after her exit.
She then briefly weighs in on the current war between Teresa Guidice and Caroline Manzo.

The feud between Real Housewives Teresa Giudice and Caroline Manzo may be new but it looks like it's here to stay.
On part one of the explosive New Jersey reunion show, Teresa brought up an apparent rift between Caroline and her sister, former Housewife Dina Manzo. But Teresa later said, "I don't get Caroline's problem with me."
Now, in a new blog on Bravotv.com, Caroline clearing up any confusion and revealing her reasons for wanting to keep the "sad situation" between her and Dina out of the spotlight.

On part one of the Real Housewives of New Jersey reunion Sunday night, Teresa Giudice faced off against, well, all three of her present costars.
Talk turned especially explosive when Caroline Manzo revealed that Giudice confided in her that she never planned to make up with her brother, Joe Gorga, and had called him "an a------."
"I don't get Caroline's problem with me," Giudice tells PEOPLE in a new interview. "I never did anything to intentionally hurt people."
Despite the tense episode and her escalating feud with Manzo over her behavior around her sister-in-law Melissa Gorga and cousin Kathy Wakile, Giudice says her family comes first.

Dina Manzo: I'm Not Taking Sides in the Caroline vs. Teresa Feud

There's no family feud for the Manzo clan – at least not according to Dina Manzo.
The former Real Housewives of New Jersey castmember took to Twitter on Thursday night to clear up rumors that she has a stake in the escalating fight between Teresa Giudice and her older sister, Caroline Manzo.
"eww getting some MEAN tweets," Dina, who left the show in season 2, Tweeted. "I didn't take sides, don't assume~didn't even know they were not getting along until recently~I'm not involved."
After previews of an explosive – and emotional – New Jersey reunion hit the web, there was speculation that Caroline and Dina's relationship was strained because of disagreements over their friendship with Giudice.

Oh, how things have changed!
In a sneak peek at part one of The Real Housewives of New Jersey reunion show, one-time friends Caroline Manzo and Teresa Giudice are at each other's throats.
The only two original Housewives in attendance (Jacqueline Laurita refused to participate) shed tears, shouted insults and accused each other of lying and their turning backs on their families. They also tackled Teresa's husband Joe's legal problems and Caroline's relationship with her sister, Dina Manzo, who quit the show in season 2.
How did it all go so wrong for two women who have traveled together, spent holidays together and weathered Danielle Staub together?

Teresa Giudice: Caroline Manzo Must Be Jealous of My Cookbook

Teresa Giudice has the perfect recipe for making enemies.
The Real Housewives of New Jersey's third season came to an end Sunday with Teresa offending her costars with comments she made in her second cookbook, Fabulicious!
Taking shots at her sister-in-law Melissa Gorga (who was steamed to read she allegedly "copied off" Teresa's taste in shoes and porch chairs) and her cousin Kathy Wakile (who spotted a comment she didn't like about making lame jokes about Teresa) isn't new but taking aim at pal Caroline Manzo certainly is.

Real Housewives of N.J. Stars Sued After Brawl at the Beach
Originally posted 06/14/2011 10:45AM
What began with a champagne toast ended in a bar room brawl for the Real Housewives of New Jersey cast – and now they're facing a lawsuit.
In papers filed in New York State Supreme Court, Adolfo Arreola and Jason Gomez allege that a group of Real Housewives cast members beat them up after Teresa Giudice popped a bottle of champagne all over their party while in the Dominican Republic on Feb. 23.
Although the lawsuit claims the champagne "caused severe eye irritation" for Arreola's mother-in-law, Teresa allegedly "laughed at, mocked, humiliated, insulted and physically approached" the offended party, according to the papers.

Like the big kids they are, Bravo's reality TV stars are heading off to camp together for a summer of fun, pranks and hijinks – and, of course, endless drama.
That's the theme, anyway, of a star-studded, playful new Bravo promo, backed by the new Britney Spears single "I Wanna Go," that touts the cable network's summer programming, including 10 new and returning series premieres.
The 60-second video, set to run on Bravo, online and in theaters, features Real Housewives Nene Leakes, Kandi Burruss, Teresa Giudice, Caroline Manzo, Jill Zarin, LuAnn de Lesseps, Lisa Vanderpump and Kyle Richards, as well as former Housewife Bethenny Frankel.

Thread: Gollum Lightswitch Cover
November 23rd, 2005 #1
Gollum Lightswitch Cover
I was inspired by goofslapper on the forums to do a lightswitch cover after seeing his. My dad loves J.R.R. Tolkien so I decided to do one of the characters from the recent movies. I'm using Super Sculpey for the initial sculpture, then I'd like to attempt to cast the piece in something durable like silicone or something. Any advice on all that is much appreciated since I've NEVER cast anything before. This is the first thing I've made in Super Sculpey also.
Work in progress:

dude you're doing great so far.but...
how are you going about the openings for the switches and the screws?
I would do the sculpt around the openings instead of sculpting it and cutting out the openings after it is done.
keep it up .Looks really good.
It's better to be remembered as the sand in the gears and not as the oil.

Holy crap. That %^@# better not be going on MY wall plate.
Nice job.
OKay that might have been ambiguous. I mean it's scary, not that it's %^@#.

you really need to watch your depth on it. The left side (viewers) needs to be shallower then the right since his head is slanted in the reference, right now it looks akward. It looks like you already baked it so I don't really know how much that helps, you could try building up the right side of the face.

Do you guys think Super Sculpey is tough enough to use as the actual cover or should I research casting it in resin or something? I did a test piece to test for shrinkage and its the same thickness as the finished cover and it seems really tough. I was thinking of painting it w/ acrylics then laquering over it for protection.

You should use a fire-resistant material for the final piece. I'd recommend Hydrostone.

Eclectix beat me to the same answer.
Don't let the art part make you forget about the funcionality of the piece.
there is a practical side that needs to be covered well in advance of anything else.
keep in mind the risk factor for a potential fire-hazard if its not done in the apropiate material.

I only mentioned the fire hazard because I was reamed by an electrician once for making switchplate covers out of polyester resin. I doubt that it really matters much, but I think it is just a matter of electrical building code.
A good source for mould making and casting supplies that I've used for years is Douglas and Sturgess, at www.artstuff.com

Well, I went w/ OOMOO (Smooth On) for the mold material and Hydrostone for the cast material. Going to use Ease Release 200 (Smooth On) on the original so the mold doesn't stick to it. Hopefully my choices were wise ones. Any advice during the mold making process would be much appreciated. I can't afford to destroy the original. I can afford however to screw up a cast or 2 in the learning process. Maybe I should make a little test piece to make a mold of to make sure all the materials work ok together before trying it on the original scuplture.

I need to retake the photo of the finished piece...that photo doesn't give it ANY justice. It looks a lot better in person. Maybe if I could learn to take a good pic w/ my 8MP digicam it might look better.

Can't wait to see the new photo.
Still.. I'd be scared to be using those light switches.

Yes, it has rust, but this 1959 Ford Custom 300 for sale on Hemmings.com also runs and drives and the rust doesn't appear from the photos to be threatening body integrity, so it could feasibly go back on the road as is and provide maybe a few more years of basic transportation. Plus, it's all there (aside from a few square inches of sheetmetal), so a basic restoration wouldn't consume too many resources, either.

In America, if a little is good then more must be better, something we can see in the creation of this custom-built six-wheeled Jeep CJ (a vehicle once described as America's only true sports car) that Off-Road Action came across not too long ago. * In America, we like to hit the road and explore this vast country of ours, an inclination that John Margolies explored in his Roadside America photos, which The Henry Ford recently spotlighted. * In America, comeback stories are as much a part of our mythos as any other theme, and in light of the ongoing ...

We're enjoying some down time with friends and family this weekend, so there's no Hemmings Daily today. We'll send out the usual Sunday edition on July 5, and will be back to business as usual on Monday, July 6, but in the mean time, what's more American than red, white and blue muscle cars? Here's a patriotic trio of cars that have previously appeared in the pages of Hemmings Muscle Machines. Enjoy!

Photo by author. Hiking the rows upon rows of show cars at the Street Machine Nationals in Du Quoin with Hemmings Daily Editor Kurt Ernst, we saw plenty of buildups that stood out from the crowd with wall-to-wall rear tires, wild paint and graphics and blowers, sometimes one stacked on top of another and popping out of the hood. However, one of many cars that caught my attention that weekend was so subtle others may have passed right by it. This 1964 Le Mans I view as a "never-was" car—a "what if" for Pontiac fans. More to the point, what if GM hadn't ... Read more
While researching Fruehauf trailers for a recent story, we came across this photo of a Fruehauf Trailer sales and service branch in St. Louis, Missouri, from around 1950. There seem to be plenty of clues to the exact location, but we weren't able to figure out exactly where this branch was situated - perhaps our St. Louis residents can give us a hand here. In the meantime, there's plenty of cars to identify in that traffic jam. What do you see here? UPDATE: Tom Maher came through with a location: South Vandeventer Avenue and Market Street, looking northeast into... Read more
What do you get when you cross a hand-built frame with a body influenced by a 1924 Dodge and powered by a 181-cu.in. Mercury Marine engine? The answer, apparently, is this 1924 Dodge Trekster, for sale on Hemmings.com. We're not sure what makes it a 1924 Dodge, and we're also fairly certain that registering it would prove challenging in some jurisdictions, but there's no denying the fact that the car looks like serious fun to drive. From the seller's description: 1924 Dodge "Trekster," a truly unique build, reflecting superior craftsmanship throughout, powered by ... Read more
Corky Coker, Doug Sharp, Howard Sharp and Wade Kawasaki at the finish of the 2015 Great Race. Photo by Tommy Lee Byrd. The 2015 running of the Hemmings Motor News Great Race presented by Hagerty didn't have the auspicious start everyone had hoped for in terms of weather. As reported earlier, when 117 teams began arriving in Kirkwood, Missouri, for the quintessential vintage car time/distance/endurance rally, they did so under the oppressing rain from the remnants of tropical storm Bill. By the time the Hagerty Trophy Run got under way, three continuous days of ... Read more
