The Town of Good Tidings has always been a great place to live in.

But Santa is extremely busy these days preparing toys on the North Pole. Who else can help the unhappy inhabitants of Good Tidings restore their Christmas spirit? Santa has a solution! Why not call Dee Ziner and her faithful team of Bill Dur, Goran, Brian and Liz? They are real professionals and only they are able to get the town ready for holidays in the shortest time. Ready to test yourself?

Then welcome to your first client. On the whole everything is like in the first two parts – you listen to the client’s request and try to fulfill it as fully, as you can, taking into consideration your budget. A great feature here is that some clients don’t just describe what they want, in proze, poetry or even in the form of Christmas carols, but even give you pictures of their dream rooms. What about creating a living room reminding a doll house or even a pudding? And, besides client Satisfaction Meter, your budget and minimum number of items to be used, there is the Christmas Cheer Meter, which should also be full before you can proceed to the building phase. To fill the Christmas Cheer Meter, as you might guess, you need to add Christmas-themed items to the room. And those are plentiful – from Christmas trees, garlands and wraths to Christmas chestnuts and reindeers. And yes, in this version you are not limited to living rooms or baths, so the tasks are much more

Johnny Carson 25

Posted on December 05, 2010 by Jennib And Friends

Early life and career

Born in Corning, Iowa, Carson grew up in Norfolk, Nebraska. He left college after one year to join the United States Navy, being commissioned an ensign. He joined the U.S. Navy on June 8, 1943, as an apprentice seaman enrolled in the V-5 program, which trained Navy and Marine pilots.

He hoped to train as a pilot, but was sent instead to Columbia University for midshipman training. He performed magic for classmates on the side. Commissioned an ensign late in the war, Carson was assigned to the USS Pennsylvania, a battleship on station in the Pacific. He was en route to the combat zone aboard a troopship when the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki brought the war to a close.

The Pennsylvania was torpedoed on August 12, 1945 and Carson reported for duty on August 14  the last day of the war. Although he arrived too late for combat, he got a firsthand education in the consequences of war. The damaged warship sailed to Guam for repairs, and as the newest and most junior officer, Carson was assigned to supervise the removal of 20 dead sailors. He later served as a communications officer in charge of decoding encrypted messages. He recalls that the high point of his military career was performing a magic trick for Secretary of the Navy James Forrestal.

He began his performing career in 1950 at WOW radio and television in Omaha, Nebraska. He appeared on radio with Ken Case, an Omaha native who was later a news anchor and sportscaster in Monroe, Louisiana. Carson soon hosted a morning television program called The Squirrel’s Nest. One of his routines involved interviewing pigeons on the roof of the local Court House that would allegedly report on the political corruption they had seen. Carson supplemented his income by serving as master of ceremonies at local church dinners, attended by some of the same politicians and civic leaders that he had lampooned on the radio. The wife of one of the

Andy Warhol 25

Posted on December 05, 2010 by Jennib And Friends

Childhood

Andy Warhol was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He was the fourth child of Ondrej Warhola and Ulja, whose first child was born in their homeland and died before their migration to the U.S. His parents were working-class immigrants from Mik (now called Mikov), in northeastern Slovakia, then part of Austro-Hungarian Empire. Warhol’s father immigrated to the US in 1914, and his mother joined him in 1921, after the death of Andy Warhol’s grandparents. Warhol’s father worked in a coal mine. The family lived at 55 Beelen Street and later at 3252 Dawson Street in the Oakland neighborhood of Pittsburgh. The family was Byzantine Catholic and attended St. John Chrysostom Byzantine Catholic Church. Andy Warhol had two older brothers, Jn and Pavol, who were born in today’s Slovakia. Pavol’s son, James Warhola, became a successful children’s book illustrator.

In third grade, Warhol had chorea, a nervous system disease that causes involuntary movements of the extremities, which is believed to be a complication of scarlet fever and causes skin pigmentation blotchiness. He became a hypochondriac, developing a fear of hospitals and doctors. Often bed-ridden as a child, he became an outcast among his school-mates and bonded strongly with his mother. At times when he was confined to bed, he drew, listened to the radio and collected pictures of movie stars around his bed. Warhol later described this period as very important in the development of his personality, skill-set and preferences.

Early career

Warhol showed early artistic talent and studied commercial art at the School of Fine Arts at Carnegie Institute of Technology in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (now Carnegie Mellon University). In 1949, he moved to New York City and began a successful career in magazine illustration and advertising. During the 1950s, he gained fame for his whimsical ink drawings
