How to Transform Your Dollhouse Into a Faerie House
You might be too old for dolls, but you are never too old for fairies. If you have an old, unused dollhouse in the attic, it can come back to life with some attention and creativity. Take your old dollhouse and transform it into a beautiful and whimsical fairy house.
This article has been tagged as a stub.
That means it's off to a good start, but still has room to grow into a more helpful resource. Until the article reaches its full potential, it will be hidden from search results. Can you help it flourish? If you think the article offers complete and accurate instructions, feel free to remove this tag.
1Vandalize your dollhouse. Yes, vandalize it. Smash out the windows, tear out the stairs if you want. Keep the door, but get rid of the plastic. (Fairies don't like plastic much.)
2Paint the dollhouse with natural colors. If you don't do this, you will have some colors showing through and it might not look right. One method is to use spray paint, and paint it with tones of grey and brown. (Make sure you use a respirator.)
3Collect materials for your home. They must be dry or the glue won't stick to them. For lap siding, you can use cattail leaves. You can also make a stone cottage, or cover it with birch bark. Norway Pines have wonderful bark for shingles on the roof. Use old slips, fabric and lace for curtains. Layer them for a good effect. To detail the house, you might find some great shapes in potpourri, or from dried flowers from the garden. You can even make an entire fairy house with food!
4Use hot wood glue and a glue gun to put it all together. If you can't find hot wood glue sticks, you can use regular, but it might not last as long.
Community Q&A
Ask a Question
- If the house is plastic or smooth, things won't stick very well. You can glue burlap or fabric to the house first, and it will help the other materials stick to it. Try to use natural colors.
- Add branches and crispy leaves to the sides and roof of the house for a more natural autumn look!
- Be sure to make a sketch of it first! That way you will have an idea of what you are doing.
- For a whimsical look, layer lace, gauze or other sheer materials to the windows. You can also make it look like the wind is blowing by manipulating the curtains.
- Make sure there are no messes in the house, because fairies are clean creatures.
- This will not hold up for long in the elements. Do not put it outside unless you are willing to let it fall apart.
- Keep a bowl of cold water, some burn cream, or anything else to soothe burns near you in case you burn yourself on the glue gun or glue.

GOC Central Command releases video showing training given to soldiers ahead of escalation in West Bank. Military underscores restraint; needs to reduce casualties
Yoav Zitun
Published: 02.27.13, 22:51 / Israel News
Yoav Zitun
As a result of Palestinian injuries sustained during protest dispersals in the West Bank, IDF
forces have been practicing the rules of engagement. A senior Central Command officer told Ynet that this is in preparation of "a month of unrest and contending with wide-ranging escalation."

Palestinians, IDF forces clash in Jerusalem, West Bank
The crowd-control measures used during recent days are intended to lessen casualties throughout the potential agitation liable to hit the entire area.
In light of the Palestinian bid
at the UN, in what was entitled Operation Summer Seeds,
the IDF has upgraded its non-lethal dispersal methods and procured equipment worth NIS 100 million (about $27 million) to that effect.
Central Command prepares for escalation (Photo: IDF)
Flash and tear gas grenades: The former causing immense pandemonium and alarm and the latter causing long-term eye-burning, feelings of suffocation and nausea.

Next in line are rubber bullets, which can sometimes cause serious injuries or death. Those are followed by putrid-smelling "Skunks" and ear-shattering "Screams," which releases high-pitched shrills.
In cases where a protester is clearly trying to harm the troops, they are authorized to use Ruger 22 bullets to neutralize the threat. Fire is performed by an IDF sniper, the order must be given by the force's commander and the fire is aimed only at the lower extremities.

The military is also considering acquiring "sponge bullets," which are effective in short-to-mid range and are considered safer than rubber bullets.
Other crowd-control measures that the IDF is mulling include paintball bullets.

We???re not about to claim that wearing the ThirtyTwo Men???s JP Prospect Snowboard Boot will turn you into a snowboard legend overnight. That would be preying on your weak, gullible mind. But working your ass off to push your own personal envelope while rocking this lightweight, flexy boot, just might make you worthy of carrying JP Walker???s board for him someday. Or yeah, OK, maybe someday starring in your own film.

What do you think about this product?
Have questions about this product?
I had an old pair of thirtytwo "Prospect" model boots that i rode for over 6 seasons. So i bought these thinking they would be just as great. right!? Well they started ripping at the laces first season, and are to soft of a boot. the new linners suck too. Seems like thirtytwo has lost their drive for a quality product. they used to be the best boot in the business. I hope all the new models liners are not like the ones i got. good beginner boot but that is about it.
Love the Boots!
Intermediate wakeboarder, but beginner snowboarder. Wanted something not too flexy with enough support as my Liquid Force Transit bindings. Took a gamble on this, and voila!... was very much pleased. Ample support, lightweight, and bang-for-your-buck. 'Nuff said.
Prospect Boots in Niseko
Not exactly a pic of it in action, but a pic nonetheless. Love the boots!
Solid boot
Used to ride the ultralights but have had the prospects for the last 2 seasons. They are pretty trashed at this point but still doing alright considering I've ridden them in 3 dif seasons. They aren't "too stiff". They are what you would expect from a solid 32 boot. Like all boots you need to break them in to get that nice feel. "Too squeeky"? Lol, what is that even supposed to mean man.
I never have any problems with circulation. Maybe you just need to loosen them a little bit. Good boot. Not sure If I will be purchasing these specific ones again but def staying withing the 32 line. 11 or 12 season riding. Will never buy anything other than 32 boots again. Never done me wrong the last 5 years. Best switch I ever made.
32 boot and union bindings, how can you possibility go wrong with that? :D
not as good as you would think
I have last years prospects. these boots are terrible for me at least. These boots cut off the circulation in the bottom half of my foot making it uncomfortable to ride. Boots are ver loud and squeaky. Lastly the boots are very stiff. I ride mostly park and these boots have been nothing but a pain in the ass. The only good things about them were the looks. I've tried other 32 boots and they've all been a lot comfier its not the brand its the boot

Ty Dolla $ign, who appears on the cover of the upcoming issue of Fader, says he's not out to promote a gangbanging lifestyle.
"We''re not promoting gangbanging here," Ty says. ""Luckily, I got the homies that I got and kept me from doing some stupid shit, and I ended up here, not dead or in jail. That''s what they tell you about gangbangers, one of two things: dead or in jail. I just try to promote positivity. It''s not really worth it.""
In the interview, he also explains other aspects of life he is attempting to promote.
"I'm promoting partying and having fun and being that type of American," he says. "I don't wanna hurt nobody's feelings. I'm not gonna front and act like your boyfriend. I'm out here. I'm about to go on tour! It's like running for the presidency...except without a wife."
This interview is part of the magazine's "Summer Music" issue. The cover is below.

Manufacturer : InnoDisk
Posted by: Ian Jackson on 2010-09-01

Whilst most electronic gadgets have been shrunk into ever smaller packages over the years, PC components seem to have been moving in the opposite direction. CPU coolers have swelled to gargantuan proportions in order to cater for hotter CPUs while video cards seem to be getting longer and longer with each generation. Fortunately hard disks have remained fixed in their dimentions with a 3.5" form factor for desktops and 2.5" size for notebooks, at least until now.
InnoDisk's nanoSSD is easily the smallest SATA storage device we have ever seen, measuring just 4cm x 2.5cmx0.7cm in size. Unlike most drives that require a SATA cable the nanoSSD instead plugs into the slot directly. On some motherboards with 90-degree SATA port sockets this is going to cause a problem because it could block up to three other ports in the process, but for most boards you'll be just fine. As with all other SATA devices the nanoSSD requires a separate power connection. In this case it is provided by a Molex plug attached to a cable measuring about 20cm in length.
One of the biggest benefits of the nanoSSD is that it is not dependant on having spare drive bays for installation. If you want to give your machine a speed boost but it has no room for an extra drive this could be an ideal solution. Another type of user we thought would find this disk extremely useful every day is the onsite troubleshooter. Whether you fix PCs for a living or just find yourself doing all-too-many favours for friends and family, the nanoSSD is a great way of plugging in an emergency OS that will allow you to get them back up and running. It is also a great gadget for getting files onto your client's machine extremely quickly. Large files like graphical stress tests can take minutes to transfer over USB, but with a read speed of 130MB/s you could be done up to 5x quicker.
Although the external power is a necessary evil it does unfortunately rule out the nanoSSD for laptops and netbooks, unless you can find a way of jury rigging a power source into the expansion slot. Given the delicate nature of laptop internals we can't see many people prepared to carry out this particular operation.

Several health insurers recently launched integrated offerings, often partnering with other vendors, to give employers a single-source solution.
Such an approach can be more cost-effective and seamless, experts say, but a single vendor may not excel in each of the various programs.
As such, some employers favor a "best in class" vendor approach, experts say. While such an approach is appealing, it can be more cumbersome as employers are responsible for making sure each vendor is willing to work with other vendors and share data to have a truly integrated program, experts say.
Vendor selection generally depends on the size of the employer, says George Faulkner, a principal specializing in absence management for Mercer in Princeton, New Jersey. "Smaller employers are more interested in the administrative ease and are more likely to go with a single vendor, whereas larger employers tend to want best in class and may have more clout with vendors to tell them to cooperate and work with each other," he says.
"We still see a lot of interest in best-in-class purchasing strategy," says Dr. Miles Snowden, executive vice president, clinical strategy, at UnitedHealth Group Inc. in Atlanta. Part of the reason few employees are using a single-source provider is that the decision has to come from two different sources: human resources, which oversees health care, and disability, which tends to be overseen by finance, he says. A vendor has to sell to two different parties at the same time in order to get uptake on this product, he says.
While Aetna Inc. will work with other providers on request, "the beauty of having several programs with Aetna is that we have a shared platform—a common clinical system that the clinicians in disability and clinicians in medial use," says Adele Spallone, head of clinical services for disability and absence management at Aetna in Plantation, Florida.
That shared platform allows clinicians to see medical information, lab results and pharmaceutical records in real time and provide integrated reports for employers," which we would not be able to do if it was through an external vendor," Spallone says. Those outside vendors must be willing to release information and share data, which she says is a lot more challenging.
Experts pointed out that while a single-source vendor can provide integrated data, employers utilizing multiple vendors often engage outside data warehouse firms such as Ingenix Inc., a data warehouse owned by UnitedHealth, and Medstat, a unit of Thomson Reuters.

Academic journal article African Studies Review
Muslim Societies in African History
Article excerpt
David Robinson. Muslim Societies in African History. New Approaches to African History series. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2004. xx + 220 pp. Maps. Illustrations. Glossary. Index. $55.00. Cloth. $19.00. Paper.
In American academia, the study of Islamic cultures in Africa has long been the preserve of specialists. Books and articles in the field have tended to assume a substantial level of background knowledge, while courses on the subject have generally been offered only at research universities and then, too, at advanced undergraduate or graduate levels. The publication of David Robinson's Muslim Societies in Africa suggests that this situation is changing. At a time when popular interest in global Islamic studies is growing, this book's arrival is welcome, particularly given its suitability as an undergraduate textbook.
Muslim Societies in Africa belongs to a new series on African history, published by Cambridge University Press and intended for use by students in general African or world history courses. With its thirteen chapters (plus an introduction and conclusion), the book can function as a core text for a semester-long survey. It uses easy language, assumes no prior knowledge of Islamic history, and provides recommendations for further reading at the end of each chapter, as well as a glossary of terms at the back of the book. By including North Africa within its purview, the book bridges the Saharan divide that so many scholars have traditionally (and regrettably) imputed to African history. Moreover, by noting the impact of the attacks of September 11, 2001, on the United States and global politics, it implicitly registers the concerns that may be framing the worldviews of students as they enroll in an Islamic history classes.
The book has three main parts. The first offers historical background on early Islamic history and the tenets of Islamic belief and explains how Islam was initially transmitted from Arabia into the African continent. …

Then it's a good thing FGs still count as points, huh? Sorry, but who advanced the ball to put them in that spot in the first place? Please think before you post.
Just because Eli comes out and says he's as good as Brady, doesn't make it so. He's not even as good as his own brother; never will be. Eli will never overcome his own int problems. I live iin NY and see a lot of Giants games. Sometimes watching Eli is like watching Chuck Knoblaugh forget how to throw a baseball.
Eli is one of the least consistent QBs in this league.
The only QB in this league who can be remotely compared to TB is Peyton. And he's legit. There are others who are developing into outstanding QBs; if you were to ask them whose game they aspire to, which QB do you think it would be? Eli? Not so much.
But you keep ducking the interception question. Brady threw four last year. How many did Eli throw? And don't let those pesky TD's get in the way of your argument: Maybe you should go check out those numbers, too.
How many MVPs does Eli own? And his brother?

Top Christian Love Songs EVER: Part 1
Valentine's Day is right around the corner, and in the event that you're still trying to pull together a playlist for that romantic evening with your special someone, we've got you covered. Here are five of the greatest love songs of all time, performed by some of the biggest names in Christian and Gospel music. Come back tomorrow for Part 2.
"On and On" - Kevin Max
"You are the sunshine/I am the rain that falls in line/You are a candle/And I am your darkness," sings Kevin Max, former member of the hit Christian group dc Talk, on "On and On." The singles come from Max's 2001 solo debut, Stereotype B.
"Honestly" - Stryper
Stryper's declaration of unwavering loyalty and commitment begins innocently enough, with just a syrupy-sweet piano melody. Ultimately, the track adds the driving drums and screaming guitar riffs that the Christian metal band is known for, making 1987's "Honestly" one of their most popular songs - and most requested videos on MTV.
"I Will Remember You" - Amy Grant
As anyone who's ever been in love can attest, matters of the heart are rarely uncomplicated and even the most promising starts can end on a sour note. But on 1992's "I Will Remember You," Amy Grant - the Queen of Christian pop - promises to never let go. "True love," she sings, "is frozen in time/I'll be your champion/And you will be mine."
"I Will Be Here" - Steven Curtis Chapman
If there was an award given for "Love Song Most Played at Weddings," Steven Curtis Chapman's "I'll Be Here" would likely take it. And it's no wonder. Chapman confirms that obstacles and challenges (and old age!) are inevitable in marriage - but so is his presence. His commitment to his wife and the promises he made to God guarantees it.
"I Promise (Wedding Song)" - Cece Winans
Most love stories end with the damsel being swept off her feet by the knight in shining armor. It's a nice story, but we don't often hear from the women who pledge to support and love their men unconditionally, truly becoming the wife that God has called them to be. Cece Winans changes all that with "I Promise (Wedding Song)."

Reviews for Mashed Potato Sausage Bake
Reviewed Mar. 2, 2010
"This was really good! The mashed potatoes in it are delicious. I skipped the mushrooms, as my family doesn't eat them, but it turned out great. I like turkey kielbasa a lot, so I like finding different recipes with it. I'm sure you could use regular kielbasa if you choose."
Reviewed Feb. 27, 2009

Big opportunity for Rea and Sykes to make up ground in the championship. Sykes raw speed is unbelievable but I think Jonnny might have the edge in the race. Hoping for a couple of cracking races!

Augmented reality is one of those phrases that seems so….well…mm… technical. It appears to
step from an Arthur. C. Clarke novel.
Now with Google Glasses one could fall into the trap of believing that technology itself 'augments reality'.
But as with social media, it is important to remember all marketing in business is about augmenting the reality of the customer world.
Therefore let us not get carried away with technology in business, let us
- What will provide value to the customer experience or to the life of the consumer?
- How can technology help to deliver that?
- Keep the focus on the customer not the technology?
In order to do that you need to be reviewing technology news and foreseeing the emergence of future technology….
You also need to be close to your customer and the customer experience of their lives.
Your role in business is to marry the two…
because that then is truly augmenting reality.

As Planet Earth nears transition to a New Year and another journey around the Sun... it will also present us with the challenge of an endless array of visual scenes for avid Photographers to capture and share for all who appreciate Life and it's myriad wonders. My personal perception of this magic is like that of a cosmic kaleidoscope of never-ending change, orchestrated by an invisible power with awesome, unlimited imagination to manifest itself into material form(s). We may capture these images for a time... perhaps a very long time however, as is the nature of all things material, they will eventually fade away into the oblivion of the great unknown. In this regard, I urge and suggest a wider and deeper understanding and appreciation for the art form of Photography to be acknowledged and embraced.
I recently had the opportunity and privilege to visit the Northeastern USA during peak Autumn color and was rewarded with scenes of awesomeness that defy description and mere photographs cannot convey. Still, we Photographers / Artists cannot resist our efforts to arrest these momentary. fleeting visions and transpose them into frozen fractions of the spectacular reality our eyes behold.
While no camera can match the miraculous ability of the Human eye, we are able to produce impressive semblances of what we see and thereby create a vicarious experience for audiences of our work.
In the spirit of the coming New Year ... I share with you a few of my humble efforts at capturing some of the scenic splendor I have witnessed over the past year and hope they will enlighten and inspire the deeper appreciation for Life's beauty and magic I refer to in this article. There is already too much darkness and despair in the world ... yet amidst it all remains this beauty and wonder I for one choose to focus upon and share with other like-minded individuals as we ride the great planet Earth along our journeys of Life.
As always, wish you all things good and a Happy New Year,
Nik www.imajik.info

Now that we have heard the speech and chewed over some of the contents, nothing is more certain in the world than there is going to be months if not at least two years of negotiations with the mandarins of the European union. Two long years where most of us will be mystified about the terms, in fact I have not heard one word about what we want to be negotiated.
I suspect there will some talk about agricultural policy and the French with their generous farming subsidies.
Do we want proper light bulbs back or is that not up for grabs?
Then there's is this daft policy where young female drivers have to pay the same premiums as young males.
I'll state mine now, the Working Time Directive, this iniquitous piece of legislation has played havoc with Doctors working in hospitals, not so much GP practises….the argument for the directive, to ensure that our medics are not worn out by long hours, a feature of hospital life, whatever profession you're in.
Now I would like to know from members of MyT what powers they would like to see restored or negotiated.

Quick Hits: Who Is Adam Levine Dating Now?
Amanda Peet lives in my building and thinks shes some big shot. I say hi to everyone when I get in the elevator and didn't know who she was when I got in on day and just said, "Hi." She put her head down like I was some paparazzi. I told my husband that we have a new bitch in our building and he told me who it was. I got news for her, NO ONE knows who she is or cares!
I will NEVER understand the allure of Adam Levine. Ever. He's so whimpy looking and emasculated. He's got an okay body I suppose but his face is no better than the next average Joe. He doesn't sing either – he whines.
Any gay rumors about Adam Levine? A friend in Montreal told me about meeting him at a birthday party – he was there with his BOYFRIEND, a senior executive for a large department store.
Amanda Peet is Hollywood's go-to topless girl next door. She's never offered a roll without frontal nudity. It's sad, because her breasts aren't anything to write home about, as in, not even worth tuning in for.
"he was there with his BOYFRIEND, a senior executive for a large department store"
the senio exec is his father, not his boyfriend.

That post-traumatic syndrome scene is creating a lot of stir for good reason. It's quite exceptional. Can you walk me through it?
Greengrass: The last day we were shooting we were meant to shoot the scene that took place in the story several hours later when Rich Phillips had got cleaned up and showered and been given a uniform and he was sent up to the Captains' cabin and given a beer and a phone to call home. We actually shot that scene through most of the day, and it was fine; it just wasn't it. I think we both knew it.
Hanks: It might have worked out all right.
Greengrass: That's the true nature of filmmaking. The clock's ticking down, you've got a scene that's okay, but it's not really quite it. You've tried it every which way. And it's just the luck that the real Navy captain happened to be in there and he happened to say that Rich Phillips had actually gone to the medical room when he first got on the ship so Tom and I said let's give that a go.
You enter that place, which is a great place to make films: it's a place where everybody gets into a blind panic and no one knows what they're doing. Guess what? We're going to shoot this scene and we don't quite know what it will be and we don't' know how it will go but we've got to do it in the next few minutes and everybody panics. I'm slightly exaggerating but only somewhat because the truth is, when you enter that place everybody starts being instinctive, everybody stops over-thinking stuff. There was a young medical officer there, Danielle, and literally we turned Tom over to her over and I'll let him tell the next bit of the story.
Hanks: The work that we set out to do from the very beginning – when Paul said it, I sort of lit up – was figuring out what the procedure was going to be throughout the movie and then capturing the accurate behavior. There's procedure to being on board a merchant marine ship. There's procedure on being on a life boat at sea, and in this case there was a procedure that was going to be about cleaning up Richard Phillips when he came into the infirmary. Now they knew the procedures, they were literally on duty as the medical crew on board the ship that day. So Paul saying, "would you guys mind us filming a training exercise," except it's going to be me and you would just do what you would do under normal circumstances.
Greengrass: [Danielle, the chief medical officer] looked pretty shocked, there was Tom Hanks in front of her
Hanks: But they all knew what to do so there wasn't a moment wasted of trying to figure out what that action, and I don't want to overuse the word procedure, but that's what they were following through. All of their training and all of what they went through. As far as behavior goes, I did not know specifically what was going to happen but I felt as though I had a good line on what would come out of my side of that was Richard Phillips having witnessed and experienced some terrible things.
It was a very freeform and rather luxurious fifty minutes that we got to shoot in a room that hadn't been scouted, hadn't been lit, hadn't been written, hadn't been planned and really wasn't rehearsed other than quick camera and physical placement. "Danielle will be here" and it all came about because of the willingness of Paul and the rest of the filmmakers to do it and also the comfort that the Navy crew had of showing us how they do what they do. The end result was not supposed to be the last scene in the movie but Paul made that decision later on.
Greengrass: I would say Tom was the crucial bit. I'll embarrass him now but it's true. One of the things actors do, they're like water diviners, they go out to the desert with a crooked stick looking for water on the ground. Looking for the truth in the moment. The actors have to be able to divine it, you know?
That's really what we've been doing all day, trying to find where the truth was. Not all actors can find it. It's the art of it and it wasn't upstairs in the Captain's cabin. We looked everywhere, in every seat and every part of that room. I remember the first take down in the medical room which went all wrong, [the chief medical officer] got very self conscious and dry and [cinematographer Barry Ackroyd and I got all cramped up in one corner and it all sort of fell apart.
Hanks: The serendipity that we had that it was a woman that was asking the questions and it was a woman that was touching Richard Phillips and cleaning up, that was just a god of filmmaking that brought that. If it had been a rough guy with tattoos and a beard it might have been something different, but because it was this excellent medical officer. She was in charge of the place, the officer on duty and that ended up being...look I sort of understood what the scene was about but I didn't know what was going to happen.
She kind of unlocks the scene with her presence in a way. It's so real
Greengrass: The point is the actor's got to find it first of all. And then you've got to have the courage to walk through that door and nail it with complete conviction and also complete control. That's the scene, it's a beautiful study in shock and confusion and it's heartbreaking and cathartic because at that moment I think what happens in that film is the audience is with Richard Phillips. When she's saying, "it's going to be okay," when you watch the film you're with him and you're processing it as he is processing it. That's why I think the audience s going to respond so strongly to the film.
Tom, I think I cut you off there, did you have anything more to add?
Hanks: No. What I was going to say, is we could talk about it for a long time, but it kind of happened with eyes rolling in the back of the head so it's almost better that it ends up being there it speaks for itself.
This is a great collaboration, will we see you guys work together again?
Hanks: I'll do it.
Tom, you said earlier that you and Paul almost worked together, but it didn't happen. Did you almost play Jason Bourne? [laughs]
Hanks: That's hilarious. I almost played Jason Bourne's fat, out of shape brother in law. No. I was not going to be there. [laughs]
"Captain Phillps" is in theaters now and hits DVD/Blu-Ray on January 21.

Comedic pioneer Jonathan Winters exits the world's stage
Jonathan Winters, a pioneer of improvisational standup comedy who inspired the likes of Robin Williams and Jim Carrey, died Thursday evening of natural causes in his Motecito, Calif., home, surrounded by family and friends. He was 87.
Exceptionally gifted in mimicry, the Ohio native was known for his wide variety of eccentric personalities and seemingly endless supply of creative energy. He could get a laugh in a matter of seconds, with just a quick twist of his face, a silly sound effect, or tall tale.
"Beyond funny, he invented a new category of comedic genius," comedian Albert Brooks tweeted Friday.
A foot-long stick was all it took to get Winters' creative juices flowing on Jack Paar's television show in 1964. Within seconds of taking hold of the lackluster prop, Winters transformed into Bing Crosby's golf club, a delusional psychiatric patient, a fisherman, then a U.N. diplomat, a violinist, and a lion tamer.
"As a kid, I always wanted to be lots of things," Winters told U.S. News & World Report in 1988. "I was a Walter Mitty type. I wanted to be in the French Foreign Legion, a detective, a doctor, a test pilot with a scarf, a fisherman who hauled in a tremendous marlin after a 12-hour fight."
His wit most often was based in reality—his characters Maude Frickert and Elwood P. Suggins, for example, were exaggerated versions of people Winters knew growing up.
A disciple of Groucho Marx and Laurel and Hardy, Winters and his never-know-what-he'll-do-next brand of humor inspired Johnny Carson, Billy Crystal, Tracey Ullman, and Lily Tomlin, among many others. But Williams and Carrey are his best-known followers.
"He was just a great friend and I was very lucky to be able to work with him for all the years I did," said Joe Petro III, an artist and printmaker who collaborated with Winters for decades on numerous art projects. "We've lost a giant and we're really going to miss him."
Winters' wife, Eileen, died in 2009. He is survived by two children, Lucinda and Jay.

Hello all,
I'm sorry for what may be somewhat basic questions but I've not been able to find a lot of info on the Archiving & Discovery while searching.
(we're just running a single server currently, not a cluster)
- Setup an archive account for some of our users
- The archived mail should be stored in a separate partition/disk on the system (and not /opt/zimbra where normal mail is)
- All mail that is currently in the accounts we're setting up, and all mail that will be sent/received by those accounts in the future, should be archived
The only documentation I've found (Zimbra Archiving and Discovery Release Notes) seems to be rather... sparse.
Any advice (or links to more complete documentation) on this would be appreciated.
BTW.... We're not currently using HSM now. Is this the preferred way of doing this in a single server environment? Rather than worrying about just the A&D accounts, just setup HSM and a secondary storage volume for the server as a whole?

(AP) -- President Barack Obama's approval rating in Wisconsin dipped to 44 percent in a new poll, the lowest of his presidency so far.
The St. Norbert College Survey Center Poll released Wednesday shows his approval rating dropped to 44 percent from 50 percent in the fall and 60 percent from a year ago, shortly after his term began.
The approval rating for Congress was far lower at 14 percent. That was down dramatically from 39 percent in the spring but roughly equivalent of the 16 percent approval rating in the fall of 2008.
Thirty-eight percent say they think the country is headed in the right direction, the same as in the fall.
The telephone poll of 400 Wisconsin residents was done between March 23 and March 31 and has a margin of error of plus of minus 5 percentage points.

Foundation conditions leads to decision to tear down old structure
July 25, 2013 | Vol. 117 -- No. 14
What began as an expansion to accommodate a growing congregation has now turned into a new building for the Cheney Faith Center.
The city Community Development Department originally approved a 4,278 square foot expansion back in January, a 900-square-foot building expansion and new 3,278 square foot sanctuary. Faith Center representative Chris Segroves said once they began exploring more of the existing building's crawl spaces they found a number of problem areas they hadn't anticipated, and decided to take a new approach.
"There was so many things wrong with the old foundation that it was just better to go with a new building," he said.
At around $650,000 the new construction includes not only an 8,993 square foot building in the current building's footprint but also paving of the 13,746 square foot parking lot. The project will also include a new drainage swale to treat stormwater runoff from the parking lot as well as new landscaping, trees per city of Cheney specifications, not included in the original extension design.
According to the environmental checklist the new construction will increase the impervious surface percentage at the 36,400 square foot site from 25 percent to 63 percent, with structural infill being "obtained from a local rock crushing plant and approved by Inland Northwest Engineering, Inc." The church intends to switch from electric to a natural gas HVAC system that "will meet or exceed requirements of the Washington State Energy Code."
Cheney senior planner Brett Lucas said an amended Mitigation of Determination of Non-Significance review and SEPA checklist went through the public review phase without any additional comment. Right now the city has issued footing and foundation permits and is awaiting additional plans from the church's architect in order to proceed with building permits and permits for the swale and parking lot.
"We're hoping to keep them moving along," Lucas said. "We would hope to have them have the framework up by fall so they can do interior work over the winter."
Segroves said the church is looking at a completion date of sometime in February or March 2014. Right now they are meeting at the Cheney Middle School.
"Our congregation is growing," he said.

A year to the week after Trunk Muzik deservingly got the retail treatment as one of the finest mixtapes in recent memory, the pride of Gasden, Alabama offers his studio debut, Radioactive. Despite the artist's esteemed major label backing and iconic co-sign in Eminem, the record feels as any ascent to the majors would have for Yelawolf. His authenticity is what sustained him through previous deals, and it's what made him an emerging star in spite of his refusal to conform. Still respecting that authenticity, Radioactive may veer towards the mainstream Pop, but nothing changes the fact that in an era of neon-Rap, Yelawolf is the bug light.
The first third of the album is what will appeal most to Catfish Billy's devoted supporters. The self-proclaimed "White trash heartthrob" kicks off his show with a display of lyricism and content that aligns very closely with Yelawolf has always been about - sincerity, family, community and of course Chevrolet Caprice Classics. First single "Hard White" succeeds in blending velvet-rope club music with a Pabst Blue Ribbon-pounding anthem. In this call-back to Crunk, Yela chops, "I don't cook my shit, I don't break it down for you motherfucker out there waitin' around for some Rap savior / You better look up at what it is that you facin' now / 'Cause Jesus drives a Harley, the devil wears Prada / If God was one of us, he'd probably' drink vodka." The emcee's boosted arrogance and brushes with anger occasionally on Radioactive are elements that make the album shine. The Southern gentleman is at his best when he drops the humility and takes ownership of being a multi-talented counter to legions Upper Middle Class rappers popping up. "Let's Roll" is another stadium record, with Kid Rock's pleasant crooning. This is a week-in-the-life of Gasden, but really, a Middle-America anthem. In the same way Jay-Z and Alicia Keys made a cap-tipper to their city, this is Yelawolf's "I see you" nod to the Hip Hop fans of the Red states. Wal-Mart parking lot music hasn't sounded this good since Nelly's Country Grammar, and don't be surprised if this song is the one that delivers Yela to Rock Radio.
Despite a strong opening, Radioactive's biggest detractors are a bulk of its choruses and beats. "Radio" has the Lynyrd Skynyrd reaching riffs and '80s Buggles interpolation, but this Girl Talk mash-up concept takes away from Yela's potent verses about the changes in music, including mentions of Black Star, Trick Daddy and Group Home. "Made In The U.S.A." battles a similar problem, as Yela's earnest lines about the war, the economy and the state of the union are compromised by Priscila Renae's wretched chorus, sounding like stage-exit music to a small-town political campaign. Besides Kid Rock, the singing guests on Yela's debut cramp the style. As he proved early in his ascent, on Slim Thug's "I Run," Yelawolf can handle the heavy lifting of melody and a bridge, and can make songs that sound mainstream but authentic. A more recent example of this, "The Hardest Love Song In The World" lives up to its name lately, with a David Axelrod sound and a polished performance from an uncredited R&B singer. For some reason on Radioactive, the versatile Yela focused on writing strong verses and interrupted many of his messages with cheap choruses or poorly translated musical ideas.
When Rap is the vehicle for Yelawolf to deliver his message, Radioactive lives up to its anticipation and falls in line with the exciting musical possibilities of the DXnext alum. From Gangsta Boo to Lil Jon to Kid Rock and Killer Mike, the Alabama emcee was adamant about pulling his influences and trail-blazers onto his studio debut. 2008 mash-up mixtape Stereo was strongly considered as was Trunk Muzik in making Radioactive. The concepts and the potency of some of the sixteens absolutely dazzle, as Middle America may feel included in the mainstream Hip Hop conversation for the first time in years. However, what worked for B.o.B. isn't necessarily possible with Yelawolf. Regardless of how it's delivered, Yelawolf has a message that is felt beyond the confines of Rap music.

Martin Starr & Geoffrey Arend Co-Star
Update: Mark Webber, last seen playing Stephen Stills in "Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World," has also joined the cast.
The only thing better than discovering that one of our favorite young comic actresses, from one of our favorite shows, has been cast in a new project, is discovering that two of them are teaming up. But that's the happy news that Variety broke during the night: Alison Brie, star of "Community" and "Mad Men," and Lizzy Caplan, best known for "Mean Girls," "Party Down" and "Cloverfield," will star in the independent romantic comedy "Save the Date."
The pair will star alongside another "Party Down" vet Martin Starr and Geoffrey Arend -- best known for "(500) Days Of Summer," and for being Mr. Christina Hendricks, the lucky dog -- in a film directed by Mike Mohan (the 2010 Sundance entry "One Too Many Mornings"), and written by Mohan, comic book writer Jeffrey Brown ("Clumsy") and playwright Egan Reich.
Brie and Caplan will play two sisters, the former one settled with her life choices, the latter one more restless (it's like a funny version of "Melancholia"!). Arend will play a love interest for Caplan's character, and, while there's no word on who Starr will play, the premise and title suggest he could be Brie's husband/fiance. Jordan Horowitz, producer of "The Kids Are All Right," is behind it, with shooting planned in L.A. for next month.
It's early days, obviously, but this is certainly one we're keeping an eye on: both Brie and Caplan are poised to be huge (the former is currently shooting the Apatow-com "Five-Year Engagement," playing Emily Blunt's sister, the latter will also squeeze in the Will Ferrell-produced comedy "Bachelorette," with Kirsten Dunst and Adam Scott, this summer), and we tend to like what we've seen of Starr and Arend in the past. Whether it turns out to be your standard Sundance-baiting indie or something a little more special is all up to director Moran now, and we'll likely find out how it turns out when it hits the festival circuit in 2012.

Blitzball is back! Square Enix has confirmed Final Fantasy X | X-2 HD Remaster for a 2013 release across PlayStation 3 and PS Vita in North America and Europe.
On PlayStation 3, the game will be released as Final Fantasy X | X-2 HD Remaster. Amazon currently has the bundle listed for $39.99, but that price has not been confirmed by Square Enix. On PlayStation Vita, each game will be released separately as Final Fantasy X HD Remaster and Final Fantasy X-2 HD Remaster.
Both games are the International versions. Final Fantasy X HD Remaster will include the Expert version of the Sphere Grid, Dark Aeons, and Penance, but we have to wait to find out what extras Final Fantasy X-2 HD Remaster will include.
"These games are classic fan-favorites, and we hope that new and old FINAL FANTASY fans can experience the world of Spira and the story of Tidus and Yuna in a brand-new light with these remastered editions," said Yoshinori Kitase, producer of Final Fantasy X and Final Fantasy X-2.
No official date has been set yet, but Square Enix has stated that the game will be released before the end of the year.

Crises in Algeria, Mali Reflect Regional Unrest (PBS NewsHour)
January 21, 2013
In a discussion of the geopolitical factors at play in recent terrorist activity in Algeria and Mali, PBS NewsHour speaks with Dartmouth's Dirk Vandewalle, associate professor of government and adjunct associate professor at the Tuck School of Business, and Mary-Jane Deeb, chief of the African and Middle Eastern Division at the Library of Congress.
Asked by NewsHour whether the recent standoff at the gas plant in Algeria indicates that there is a regional crisis, Vandewalle says, in many ways, "this has been a regional crisis ever since the Libyan regime, the Gadhafi regime, was replaced in Libya. … And so, in a sense, it is not only a regional crisis; it's a crisis that involves very closely goals outside the region as well, meaning, particularly, the European Union and the United States and to some extent the African Union, as well."

Aviation week is reporting that on Sunday UA flight 42 a 767-322ER lost power in both engines. The flight was leaving HNL & 70 miles from the island of Hawaii the crew responded to an overheating problem with one of the aircraft's PW4060's by shutting the engine down. Shortly afterwards power was lost in the other engine as well. The pilots decended & were able to restart both engines. The flight was diverted to KOA. The aircraft involved was fuse # 715 reg. N666UA (lucky number huh?) delivered in 1998. The aircraft was ferried back to SFO & subsequently put back in service. The NTSB has pulled the DFDR & will be reviewing the data to investigate the incident.

Sigma Phi Delta has grown in several ways over the last decade. One example is by adding EIGHT new active chapters. The executive leadership of Sigma Phi Delta (the Supreme Council and the Board of Trustees) actively attempt to find the best ways to improve our Fraternity. We continually attempt to find new ways to provide additional benefit to our alumni, not just our undergraduates. We recently established the strategic plan for the next 20 years of Sigma Phi Delta. The details of the plan will be made available over the next few months.
One of the major pillars of the strategic plan is Membership. We do not mean just simply an increase in the number of Sigma Phi Delta members. Moreover, we mean an increase in overall benefit to and participation of the membership. One way to do this is facilitating communication mediums to encourage professional development and support.
For most of us, we believe that Sigma Phi Delta helped forge who we are today. As a result, many of us try and help each other out, when possible. If you know your company is looking to hire new engineers or leaders, do you go to the street and find strangers, or would you much rather start with Sigma Phi Delta members? You know how Sigma Phi Delta helped you become a better engineer, and you would believe that we did the same for all other brothers as well. That is why many of us try to hire a Sigma Phi Delta man, over Joe Blow, if at all possible.
We seek Sigma Phi Delta brothers for filling roles within our organizations. What do we do if we are looking for outside help, aka consultants? Shouldn't we do the same? If so, how do we find them?
As branch out into the professional world, we realize that our network is very important to finding our next opportunity. The concept of social media has brought about a new medium for helping us organize and maintain our network, LinkedIn. Sigma Phi Delta has established a group within LinkedIn. This group allows us to better communicate with each other, post job listings, and promote other efforts. To date, members primarily use the group to only blog and list job postings. However, we want to encourage you to start using the "promotions" section as well.
If you are not a member of our LinkedIn group, I strongly encourage you to join. It is fast and easy. http://tinyurl.com/bsm485j
Are we suggesting that members should actively attempt to advertise and solicit to our membership? Only to a point. Just as we feel it is beneficial to hire SPD brothers, we feel this is another avenue to do so. However, we request that all solicitations follow some standard guidelines.
In order to start this new promotion effort off right, I will be posting an opportunity for my new consulting company. Please feel free to review it and do the same.

While most in the government are focused on whether Coal India Limited will deliver the promised money to the disinvestment kitty by way of divesting its shares or by way of a special dividend from its R70,000 crore cash reserves, this is being short-sighted. As investor-services company SES points out, Coal India is a lot more inefficient than previously thought. Coal Indias inability to raise production is well-known, as is its penchant for raising pricesit raised prices of low-grade coal by 11% in May and prices of its western coalfields produce 10% this week. While this could be pardoned if it took place in an environment of increased productivity, in CILs case, has grown very slowly, by 14% in the case of open cast mines and by nothing in the case of underground mines over the past two yearsand this is a fraction of the global best practice.
What is even more worrying is that while the future lies in underground mining, CILs productivity here is a fifteenth that in the open cast minesthe performance is so poor, that while underground mines production contributes a tenth to CILs production, it has resulted in CILs productivity falling nearly 50%. As a result, while it costs CIL R4,900 per tonne to produce coal from underground mines, the average realization is just R1,470, or a loss of R12,800 crore in FY13. Put another way, if you reduce CILs production by 10%, its profits will jump 50%. While that is what SES wants from a shareholders perspective, that is not something India can afford. One of the decisions the next government has to take at the earliest is getting in efficient private sector players and hand over CILs underground minesthrough an auctionto them. India badly needs the coal, but it cant afford to have CIL continuing to bleed the way it is right now.

A good conceptual idea badly designed will never have the traffic it deserves. Conversely though, good design will never pull a bad idea out of the mire. The two are inseparable.
Please give us a brief bio of yourself.
Matt Ross, Head of Creative, Tribal DDB, London, UK
What do you do for inspiration?
I photograph everything with my phone. Everything. Read this as well.
Please list 3 of your favourite sites.
What do you regard as being your biggest achievement?
Retaining my sanity and perspective.
What software could you not live without?
What projects do you have in the pipeline?
Something HUGE for September where Gordon Gekko-like greed is good. Something that will finally answer the question of which sex is smarter than which. And some more epic VW work.
Who do you rate as being the top 3 design companies?
R/GA; Big Spaceship; Pentagram
What effect on traffic do your new designs have?
Odd question, unless you mean what effect does good design have on traffic. In that case, massive. A good conceptual idea badly designed will never have the traffic it deserves. Conversely though, good design will never pull a bad idea out of the mire. The two are inseparable.
Who is your target audience?
For the GTi Project it was 25-40 year old boy racers who haven't grown up. So, basically everyone I know.
What area of web design lacks the most?
e-Commerce. Amazon... Rubbish. E-Bay rubbish. Their IA and UX may be spot on and researched to the nth degree, but their design and application thereof is atrocious. Their 'shop front' looks like Poundland.
What did your very first site look like? Is it still online?
Ha! It was a flash site that used vector illustrations in multi-layers. The animation chugged at about 2fps as the processor turned to goo. Horrible. Unfortunately it's not online anymore, nor do I think I even have the swfs anymore. Pity... It'd be worth a good chuckle.
Have you written any books, if not do you plan to?
Have an unwritten novel under my bed. It's rubbish though. Just reads like a bad Hunter S Thompson.
What was the toughest thing you ever did with Flash? How long did you spend on it? Is it still online?
The toughest thing... Hmmm.... Probably trying to do 3D when the plug-ins didn't exist. Had to use cell animators, but that was fun in itself actually.
Do you think Flash is here to stay
Yes, though it may very well morph into something different. Flash being launched onto television in the next 2 years will be a seminal moment. I think the de-ownership of universal software will also be a good thing.
Instead of 50 similar products fragmenting the user base, one platform that is refined and developed with a scalability to satisfy any user. Then again, the mobile world still hasn't managed any semblance of platform consistency. And they have almost 3 billion users...
What are your views on design/graphic school. Do you think someone can get into the field without educational experience in a school environment?
Yes, but rarely. The only time I've seen it done with success of any meaningful longevity was through the creative code route (I stand to be corrected though!). Visual flash designers with no schooling, in my experience, struggle.
It is always obvious to a trained eye that there is simply something... missing. There is real value in being bored out of your skull in a Renaissance art slide lecture, even though it may not seem like it at the time. It teaches you to LOOK at things properly.
When your company was just getting started, what did you find was most effective for getting new clients?
Tribal has been around for many years. We find it most effective winning new clients when both agency and client have the same long term vision. Chemistry is essential. As is trust.
How have you learned so many Flash/design skills and techniques and can you offer any advice for newbies?
The single most important skill I can say on a Flash design side is this: If you're a designer, make sure you understand the capability of code.
If you're a developer, make sure you can translate a design perfectly into Flash AND take it from something flat and lifeless, to a piece of work that sings. If you can do both, you are a very very rare breed. I'd hire you tomorrow.
What is the most expensive thing you have bought in the last week?
A sandwich. When did airport prices become the norm for a standard high street sandwich? Do these people know what everything else in the world costs??
What type of overcoat do you wear when Flashing, basically are you a labels man?
I do like white overcoats. Makes me feel laboratorian.
Any parting shots or pearls of wisdom?
Practice kaizen. And be brave.
It has been a privilege, thanks very much.
Anytime, thanks.

ST. CLAIRSVILLE - St. Clairsville is embarking on its eighth trip to the Ohio football postseason. Of those, five have come under the direction of Brett McLean, including two straight.
However, don't think for a minute the Red Devils' coach takes any of the top-8 finishes within their region for granted.
''We need to get the school, team and community excited,'' McLean said. ''Playoff appearances and success do not grow on trees and could be gone the next minute. If we let it get to that point, it will be the beginning of the end of our success.''
While getting to the postseason is exciting, McLean and company aren't content any longer with just being there. Three of the Red Devils' last four appearances in the tournament haven't stretched past the first round.
''When you get to this point in the season, we realize only one team will end its season with a victory,'' McLean said. ''I really think this region could be anyone's to win. There are some really good teams, so hopefully we can make some noise.''
The Red Devils will play on the friendly carpet of Red Devil Stadium for the third time in the opening round when they host eighth-seeded Chesapeake at 7 p.m.
Chesapeake, which just moved up to Division IV this season, is back in the postseason for the first time since 2004. The Panthers qualified despite losing their season finale to arch-rival Coal Grove Dawson-Bryant.
''(Reaching the playoffs) was definitely one of our goals at the start of the season,'' said Panthers coach Andy Clark, who is in his eighth year at the helm. ''Last week's loss was tough to take, but when you're able to accomplish one of your goals, at the end of the season it's nice for the kids.''
The matchup was a surprise to both coaches. McLean and company had believed they'd be squaring off with Indian Valley this weekend and Clark thought he and the Panthers would be a higher seed if they had taken care of their business in Week 10.
''We'd been talking to Indian Valley about meeting to trade tapes and stuff,'' McLean said. ''The next thing I know, I was on my way to Marietta to meet Coach Clark, so it was definitely a different matchup than we were thinking.''
The Panthers are embarking on their more than 4-hour trip to Belmont County at 11 a.m. Saturday. Clark, who spent most of Monday in meetings with his athletics director about travel arrangements, thinks the trip will be a ''good experience for his team.''
''We're going to take a charter bus and head up Route 7 to Parkersburg and hit I-77 and come up,'' Clark said. ''We'll stop a couple of times so the kids can stretch their legs and get something to eat.''
When the Panthers arrive at Red Devil Stadium, the fact that none of the roster has taken part in a tournament football game won't come into play. At least Clark hopes not.
''We realize this isn't just another game,'' Clark said. ''But, we've got to approach it like it's another game against a quality opponent. We hope our kids will be loose and play hard because at this point, there could be no tomorrow.''
Chesapeake's offense, which scores at a 31.6 points per game clip and averages almost 300 rushing yards, is led by 6-foot-5 senior quarterback Austin McMaster, a standout basketball player who is drawing recruiting interest from West Liberty. He's passed for 748 yards and six touchdowns on 49 of 97 accuracy. He's run for 510 yards on 63 rushes and eight scores.
''The quarterback is a tall, lanky kid,'' McLean noted. ''He's a very capable runner with some wheels to him.''
Seniors Brandon Noble (6-1, 190) and Patrick Hintz (5-7, 160) are the primary ballcarriers. Hintz has run for 747 yards and 12 touchdowns, while Noble has added 643 yards and four scores.
When the Panthers do put the ball in the air, junior Javon Thompson (6-0, 160) leads the way with 17 receptions for 464 yards and four touchdowns. Senior Tommy Noble has caught 14 passes.
Junior quarterback Matt Kinnick has led the St. C. offense with 2,373 yards and 24 touchdowns. He's been picked off 10 times. He's also a capable runner with 434 yards and three scores.
The Red Devils' ground game is led by sophomore speedster Jaylon Brown, who McLean isn't expecting to play this week. His 769 rushing yards, 317 receiving yards and 13 touchdowns will be missed, but Ben Evick has done yeoman's work in stepping in.
