How To: Hang Your Artwork and Not Screw It Up
I love artwork, think that it is the most most personal part of a home and the thing that makes it feel totally unique, but I never knew how to make it all look good on the wall.
And I noticed that most art in people's homes is shockingly randomly hung.
Then, one day, a friend gave me a great tip that to THIS day has made picture hanging a simple, gratifying task. The tip? Always hang your artwork at 57" on center. Confused? "On center" means that the middle of the artwork is always at 57" (obviously, the hook will be higher). Interestingly, the 57" standard represents the average human eye-height and is regularly used as a standard in many galleries and museums. Want to know more?
In addition to being a pleasing height, the 57" on center tends to be a lot lower than most people naturally hang their artwork. People hang things too high (I don't know why people do this!). It also means that your artwork is going to hang in closer proximity to the other elements of your home, such as furniture, rugs, lighting, etc and will therefore "talk" to everything better and have a closer relationship, which is GOOD.
In addition, I have discovered is that if you stick to this standard, you create a harmony among ALL the pictures in your home, as they will all share a midline as you look around your home, no matter what outside dimensions may be. This is also VERY GOOD.
So, here are directions.
Step By Step:
1. Measure and lightly mark 57" on the wall
2. Measure top of your picture to the middle (or take height and divide by 2)
3. Measure top of your picture to the tightened wire (a small amount)
4. Subtract "tight wire" amount from 1/2 height of work for the "to the hook" amount. This amount to tell you how far above 57" your hook should go
5. Measure up with from 57" with the "to the hook" amount and lightly mark on the wall
1. Picture is 20" tall
2. Middle is at 10" (this mid point should rest at 57")
3. Wire comes to 2" below the top
4. 10" - 2" = 8"
5. Lightly mark 8" above your first mark OR 65" on the wall
Though this may seem complicated to read, it is quite simple when you do it. The thing to always remember is that the CENTER of all your pictures are hanging at the same 57", and you are just figuring out where the hook goes above it.
This 57" also applies to groups of pictures. Think of a group as ONE picture. After you arrange how you want them all to hang (doing this on the floor makes it easier), start with the center picture/pictures and get them at 57" on center. Then surround them with the rest of the group.
Here's a short video in which I explain it as well.

Doesn't 57" seem a bit low? In the US, the average male is about 5'9" (or 69"), and the average female is about 5'4" (or 64"), which means that average eye level should be somewhere between 60" and 65".
Jimmy, your number seem good. However, I've found that this number works really well and is a very pleasurable viewing height when put to work. I, in fact, am 6'1", and it works well for me, so I wouldn't worry too much about the worldwide average eye height.
On the other hand, the real point here is that you find a number you are comfortable with and stick with it.
Uh... it might also be that something about that height may work pretty work when seated? Just a thought about why a height that's below the average eye-level might have been determined to work well.
57" to me is like sitting on the front row at the movies to everyone else: too much neck-craning.
I'm 5'2", so even cabinets that are 18" above a standard height counter are out of reach.
Recently passed up an apartment that featured that because I realized only the bottom shelf would really be visible and accessible. And the shower head was so high up that I would have had to use a stepstool to adjust it!
Being short is fine with me, but I like my home environment to be both attractive *and* convenient. But hanging art 57" on center from the floor would drive me nuts.
Does anyone here remember 'Tiny Elvis' from SNL? "Man, take a look at that artwork. That sucker's HUUUGE."
(I think I just officially dorked out. Not nerd, not geek, but dork.)
Man. The NY Times company is so going to send you a cease-and-desist letter.
Fight the power, Maxwell!
I'd always heard the number should be 60", so I like erring on the low-side at 57".
Now, any tips about groupings?
At the gallery we hang work centered at 59" - 60" inches, depending on how big the pieces are. 57" is great in an apartment, especially for smaller pieces. I think bigger paintings/photos/what have you would look a bit off kilter with a center as low as that. Just one girl's opinion and all that!
It's true. There's nothing tackier than a beautiful piece hung too high. It's like using a big, impressive word and completely mispronouncing it. As a smallish person (just barely 5'2") I never have problems hanging things too high, simply because I can't reach, but my husband, an average-height dude, always complains that I'm hanging things "too low." Now I can point him to this and say "HA!" Wonderful. Thanks AT :).
Sounds like great advice. But, here is my question -- My husband is 6'6" and I am 6'0'. In our house, I think it would drive us crazy to have things that low. When in a home, not a gallery, should that be taken into affect?
Coming from someone who has hung thousands of pictures and paintings (I'm a fine art conservator) the general rule we use is the 3/4 point of a picture should be 60" up from the floor.
Does this apply to apts with low ceilings as well? My ceilings are only 80" high (basement).
I also disagree with my partner on how high paintings should be hung. He thinks that I hang them far to low. So, I couldn't resist getting out my measuring tape after reading this post. I checked all my wall hangings. I realize that this is a stupid thing to brag about, but the exact center of each painting was 57"
I'm almost 5'1". From my feet to my eyes is exactly 57" so I LOVE this idea and that finally the world has given something to us shorter people and you freakishly tall people (5'2" and over) will just have to adjust! I say, pull up a chair and instead of making me stand on it to reach something you should have a seat and enjoy the art :)
Does it matter how high your windows are? One wall of our house has those weird half-sized, high-up windows. I'm 5'2" and the "centers" of these windows are significantly above my eyeline. My feller wants to hang pictures on the same line as the windows, but I think this makes them way too high. I like the 57" idea in general, and am happy to use it to combat him, but is he right that we should take the window height into consideration?
Great tip! I always wondered why my pictures look off.
I posted a link up at urban monarch.
I always hang center to 60.
55"-57" for artwork at my place. 1) I'm short. 2) I enjoy looking at the pieces from a seated position.
It is far more comfortable to look down at something, than to look up at something. That is why we hold books below us, instead of above us. I was told it has something to do with strain on the optical nerve.
If you look up you will feel more strain on your eye than if you look down.
It's a good tip, but I still have to eyeball stuff.
We have a 12ft angled ceiling in the living/dining room and three pieces of art on a far wall are hung higher than normal - centered at 72", since you see them when walking in and not sitting down - they face the back of the sofa and chaise, which are scaled for us because we're Amazonian.
We tried a few different heights and this is absolutely the only thing which works.
art ----------------
---- big piece of art
art ----------------
---wide bookcase-----
What about tv does this apply for that too. i mean hangin it so center is 57" from floor?
Forget the pictures.........I'm interested in the console/sofa table. Where can I get that?
yana, i imagine that when mounting a flat screen, you should take into account that you'll do most of your viewing from a seated position. my 27" TV sits on a desk which is approximately 36 inches off the ground. eyeballing it, i'd say it's centered somewhere between 40 and 50 inches. it could probably stand to be lower, and my ideal media stand would be slightly lower than what i'm using right now.
this, incidentally, is what bugs me so much about that trend of people mounting their flat screen TV above the fireplace. unless you have a really low fireplace, that means centering the TV higher than 60 inches. NOBODY watches TV that way.
Great advice. We received similar tips from a friend who used to work in an art gallery. He said that most people make similar mistakes in how they hang art work. The great things about having a measurement is that you have a guide to go with. No more guessing about where to hang that nail! Another idea we learned is to experiment with grouping art work. If you have several pictures with the same theme or colors, try grouping them together to make a big impact.
My living room walls are 11 feet high and I am not going to hang pictures all the way up on both walls. If I have one large piece in one area, how high should I hang it? Hanging it at 57" would look really weird with all that space above it. thanks.
i guess it depends how big the piece is. for instance, if we're talking about something more than 36" long, centering it at 57" will put the top of the piece at " minimum, which is over 6 feet high. a perfectly respectable height on an 11 foot wall. you could even go a little higher, maybe 60", which would even it out if it still looked low. this is why big pieces are so nice in spaces with high ceilings. a 48" piece (still pretty small in terms of contemporary paintings) centered at 60" hits 7 feet, and so on.

Our bedroom TV is actually hung above a fireplace (the fireplace is no longer functional), but it is a low fireplace. On an exposed brick wall, we've put our AV system *inside* the fireplace, and hung a flat panel TV above the fireplace with the bottom edge extending slightly over the opening of the fireplace- this way all the cables can run back into the fireplace to the back of the stereo/video system without showing anywhere on the wall. The fireplace is small. The bottom of the TV is about 34" off the floor. The screen about another 3" up. It hangs just high enough that we can see the screen over the top of our feet if we're reclining in bed.
As for artwork, everything we've hung so far has had to account for what it is hung over- sofa, credenza, low bookshelves, etc. We do have a long hallway that we plan to eventually hang artwork on. We'll heed the 57" to 60" rule.
I'm 6'2" and my apartment has 13' celings. I tried this technique a while back when I was hanging a group of pictures and it looked so bizzarre given the height of my celings. Also my larger works (about 18x24" frames) would fall behind furniture because they were so low.
Also a note: I took a trip to the Art Institue of Chicago to see what their standard was. Nearly every painting they had (except those extra small or huge 20' tall canvases) was hung at about 65" on center ... right in line with my shoulders. Perhaps we're just taller here in Chicago ;-)
And for those who don't live by the Imperial measure, that's 147 cm.
Just put it into Google: [58 inches to m]
I think it also depends on what room you're hanging pictures in...a dining room or living room where you are seated should have pictures at a lower height, as others have mentioned. The scale of the room also is a factor, you could probably get away with a slightly higher picture if the room has a cathedral ceiling for instance. When in doubt I always err on the side of lower, it tends to give a more relaxed and tranquil feel to the room for some reason.
I think you ment 5' 7" or 67". 57" is only 4" 9", miuch shorter than the average person.
I have a collection of theme pieces that are all framed in a like frames. None of them are extremely large, maybe 20" or so for the large ones. I have about 20 or so that I would like to hang in one room.
I was planning on hanging them over the entire area of the wall and putting the ones near the ceiling at a slight downward angle.
I haven't read anything from you that goes past the 57" rule. Any opinions or suggestions regarding my idea?
Please let me know!
Check out google.
This question is for all the art curators out there. Im putting on my first art show w/ a friend & boy would it be alot easier to find a venue if i could rent some sort of mobile fixtures to set up and hang my work on. Ive seen them around, they look like dividers, but im not building them and i have no idea what they are called or where to rent them. Please Help!
Great info for hanging pictures....BUT....how do you hang a portrait over a fireplace? Picture is 20x24, 8 foot ceilings and big crown molding.
Do you eye it from the top of the mantle...because when you try to measure the wall space between the mantle and the crown molding, its only 3 feet or so...you naturally want to center it in that space. However, when I did, the picture looks too high. It's particularly tricky because the frame is a dark mahogany, while the fireplace and molding are white, and the wall is pale blue.The dark horizontal line of the picture frame is accentuated...which makes you want to center the picture in the space above the mantle...So what is the rule for hanging pictures over the fireplace?
Thanks for any advice!!!
The ergonomic factor supporting equal to or less than eye-level hanging is our eyes rest comfortably lower than it does to raise them higher.
The paintings I'm about to hang in our apartment are my gf's, so I'll run with the 57". Nice article, the best I found in my search for "how high should I hang my paintings"!!!
What New York Times graphic?
Whenever I hang a piece of art over a piece of furniture or a mantel, I always have the bottom of the frame hit somewhere around 4-6 inches above the furniture/mantel. This ensures that the art relates to the piece below it and doesn't "float" above it.
You'll also want to consider the objects you may want to display on the mantel. They can bridge the gap between the mantel and the art.
Hope that helps!
What New York Times graphic?
If memory serves, this article originally came with an "AT Select" logo that used the T from the "Times Select" logo as a joke about premium content. The NY Times did send something along the lines of a cease-and-desist letter, which is why the graphic is gone.
And now Times Select is also gone. Such is the rhythm of life.
How high I hang my art work depends on how it will be viewed. If it will be viewed while seated (in the dining room) it goes a bit lower. If its viewed where people are standing up its a bit higher. Im 5'10 so I hang it to whats comfortable to me. I do have a series of pieces on a half wall. They are not intricate so they can be appreciated from a standing position. I like having pieces in unexpected places.
I just dont agree that there is one standard height for all art.
Jeff- The Chicago Art Institute does hang its art higher than most east coast museums. I also think it's true that the midwest population is for the most part taller than east coasters. I don't know if this accounts for the difference but it's something to think about. We use approximately 57 but I think most people hang their art & their flat panel screens way too high, esp. if they have high ceilings.
HOW many times has this post been recycled? Is this the third?
I use 60" also. You can imagine my chagrin when I went to my boyfriend's place for the first time and there was no consistency whatsoever. He used somewhere between 72" and 80" for 36x48 posters. In a 8' room, everything seemed to be inching towards the ceiling, like they were trying to escape. Some topped out 6" from the ceiling. Ugh.
gallery hanging is one thing, but inside your home? why not just use your eyes and your sense of taste to determine where a particular piece should be placed in particular surroundings. using a rule like this seems like a crutch to create arrangements that are likely to be inoffensive but unlikely to be entirely well-suited to individual space and aesthetics.
but then, i suppose it would come in handy for those people who just don't have a sense of taste. then by all means let 57" rule your life.
57" on center generally makes sense in many situations, but for modern/low furnishings you might need to mount mirrors/art even lower: I have a long low sectional sofa that's only 24" high - when I tried hanging a 36" diameter mirror at @ 57" on center it was much too high - the mirror frame needed to drop to within 12" of the top of the sofa to relate to the sofa.
On the other hand when mounting a tall piece over a high-backed sofa, credenza or headboard, the center of the artwork could be well over 57" high - but as long as the bottom of the frame is within 12" of the top of the piece of furniture below (and closer to the top of the furniture than it is to the ceiling above) it would still relate well
Ivy, I think what you're looking for are A-frames with pegboard sides? That's what we use for our student exhibitions. Like these, perhaps?
I'm a museum curator at an accredited fine art museum and I can assure you that all museums do not follow the exact same rule. We have one gallery that we hang at a 59" centerpoint; another with much higher ceilings has a 60" centerpoint. Several others have chair rails at about 40", so we have to work around that.
A number of museums are starting to lower labels and centerpoints to be more accessible to those in wheelchairs, and more accessible to children. If only tall adults on two legs come in your house with 18' ceilings, hang those puppies high, for heavens' sakes.
I confess: NOTHING in my house is hung according to my museum's rules, because I'm so sick of being limited at work. I eyeball everything and move it if it bugs me.
I agree with the hang it where it looks right's.
Rules, rules, rules. Hang it where it looks good.
Just lean the suckers against the wall and be done with it.
I'm with Taureg. We've seen this content before, and very recently, too!
"I won't even mention art hung in a stairwell ... that would be a Pandora's box type question, right?" she cheekily types ...
Perfect advice for the type of person that doesn't care what they hang just so there's "something on the wall".
hah! that's old navy wrapping paper in the frame up there. i papered our bar area in it!
who knew!
it's supposed to be 5 *FEET* 7 inches.
god, i hope nobody hung their art below the light switches.
i can't believe nobody pointed out this error.
whatever height you want to hang something is personal preference, but what i think one should take away from this post is how to figure out where to place your nail/screw/whatever.
I'm vertically challenged. I've always hung pictures the way I was taught: if most people sit in an area, the pictures should be hung low enough to view without neck-craning. If it's a hallway, entry area or somewhere most people would stand, the art should be hung for straight on viewing for average height people.
I can't believe how many design savvy people don't know this. The most common mistake I see in people's homes is hanging art too high.
such a useful tip. I'm such a picture hanging klutz!
The "Rule":
Imagine that the artwork is a mirror. You want to be able to see your face in a mirror without bending down or stretching up.
Now, break the rule if/when you want to make a (more) dramatic effect.
I'm with Teresa and Le_Sacre. The art should RELATE to other things in the room--a credenza, a sofa, a window, whatever. It has very little to do with the standing height for viewing that is commonly used in galleries. In my experience, people who are following the rules in this article almost always hang their art too high. It's floating on the wall and is not anchored to anything. I prefer to look at the "vignettes" created by different views within my house. No one is standing six (or more) feet away admiring my Rembrandts. They are being drawn in to various "scenes" within my house because of the way each one surprises and engages (at least, I hope that's what is happening!)
I have salon-style arrangements that cover entire walls. Saves me from having to measure so much.
I never understand why people apply art gallery hanging rules to homes. The purpose of an art gallery is purely to display art, so pictures should be hung at the optimum height for viewing that art. One of the reasons there is little or no furniture in art galleries is because you're not supposed to sit down and relax in an art gallery, you're supposed to nothing except stand and focus on the art on the walls.
The purpose of a home is not purely to display art. It's to relax, feel comfortable, socialise, play, study, whatever. Anything hung on the walls should facilitate those activities. And often, if not most often, that means the art should be hung to fit in with the proportions of a furnished room and provide visual balance to the room as a whole. Step away from the measuring tape!
My take on this rule and I DO think it's 5' 7" roughly, not 57" is it gives you something to go by when measuring, it's found to be the average IME height of any given room with 6" being the max for extra tall ceilinged rooms and for super huge art.
That said, since much artwork is hung at home, you DO need to ground it to whatever it's next to or near, such as furniture, shelves etc and there, no more than 6"-12" for the bottom of the frame to the back of the piece of furniture. I have one tall, narrow painting that rests on a LACK shelf unit and just leans against the wall, works just fine and when that same painting hung over my old dining table, I let the bottom of it hang about 6" from the table top, I have a series (not finished) of vintage 60's era Jazz album covers in black album frames where the bottom row's frames are no more than 6" or so from the top of the sofa's back (a red leather Klippan), otherwise, roughly 5'7" is a good average height and if you measure, I think you'll find most prints hung as I hang them will run more or less at that point at the center to 2/3 up the frame from the bottom.
I can't tell you how many times I see too many people hand artwork etc much too high on walls.
Very tall ceilinged rooms, be it flat or cathedral I find do best with larger artwork for small or many small items may feel lost and cluttered no matter how you try to avoid it and if need be, you CAN put larger artwork up a tad higher - especially when there is nothing to relate it to. At the same time, at home most artwork is viewed from a seated position so it needs to be a bit lower than in most museums for that reason. Nothing worse than having to crane one's neck to view something and I WILL often notice the artwork etc in a home and will note how it's all pulled together (or not)
I just use a system where you can move your pictures arround the wall and find out what the best position is best. At a store from holland called http://www.stasstore.com its with rails and transparant corts. Regards Rob
Why not just hang the top of the painting to the top of the door jam, that way you can skip one of the measurements. It also looks fine.
I too, learned that rule when I took a photo archiving technique class years ago, at The George Eastman House in Rochester NY.
Here's an obscure tip that is actually related to that rule of picture hanging -- whether you're looking at your big screen TV in your living room, or in a movie theater and want to select the best seat in the house... Here's what you do: Eyeball what you think is roughly 2 1/2 times the diagonal of the screen, and then take a seat. (In the theater, pick the middle seat.)
Works every time!
I agree with Jimmy's comment - 57" seems way to low unless you are seated. I would add about ten inches onto that.
Thanks for the great information!
The right frame really makes all the difference. A nice frame adds a professional looking touch to photographs and can complement other artwork like paintings. Some frames are so artistic, they could be considered artwork themselves.

The 50 Albums Everyone Needs to Own, 1963-2013
No one buys albums anymore, goes the music industry truism. And yet, for all that the format's commercial viability may or may not be on the wane, sitting and listening to a great album from start to finish is one of the greatest pleasures that music can bring. Flavorwire recently got to thinking about how one might build a record collection if you really only did buy one record a year. So here's the result of our thought exercise: 50 albums you really should own, one a year from 1963 until the present… Read More
A Selection of the Most Insanely Long Live Performances in Music
You may have heard that The National, bless them, will be at P.S. 1 in New York this weekend, performing the same song — "Sorrow," from their album High Violet — for six hours straight, as part of a collaboration with artist Ragnar Kjartansson. According to the gallery, the show "continues [Kjartansson's] explorations into the potential of repetitive performance to produce sculptural presence within sound." That's all very well, but where does this fit into the hierarchy of insanely long shows? Read on to find out. … Read More
Great Bands That Made (Relatively) Forgettable Debut Records
In an interesting cosmic coincidence, this week marks notable anniversaries for two of the more significant debut albums in the world of rock 'n' roll: 25 years ago yesterday, the Pixies released Surfer Rosa, while 50 years ago today, the Beatles released Please Please Me. Perhaps the most interesting thing about this is the contrast between the quality of the records — Surfer Rosa was a fully realized artistic vision, while Please Please Me only hinted at what the Beatles would go on to achieve. Still, the Fab Four are in pretty good company as far as bands who overcame relatively unimpressive debut albums go. As these ten records prove, there's hope for everyone! … Read More
The 15 Best Musical Reissues of 2012
For some reason, the end-of-year listomania is starting early this year — the Guardian has begun its best-of-2012 list already, and we're sure others will soon be following suit. In the spirit of getting onto getting onto such things ahead of time, then, we thought we'd commence our own end-of-year listing this week with a look at the best of reissues of 2012. In any case, it seems an appropriate time to be looking at reissues, because this month sees the (re-)release of Massive Attack's classic 1991 debut Blue Lines, an album which we're very excited to be able to get on nice heavy vinyl. So her are our picks of other reissues we hope you were laying your hands on during 2012. As ever, we'd be interested to hear your additions in the comments section. … Read More
10 Albums Recorded in Fascinatingly Exotic Locations
Piramida, the new album by Danish five-piece Efterklang, is out this week. The album continues Efterklang's march away from the experimental weirdness of their early recordings toward a more conventional sound, and it's also a pretty somber-sounding piece of work — perhaps because it's based on field recordings that the band took in a crazy-looking abandoned mining town in the Arctic Circle. Indeed, the backstory to Piramida is pretty fascinating, and it got us thinking about albums that were recorded in similarly exotic locales. We've put together a selection, and as ever, we're open to suggestions. (Just please for the love of god don't mention Bon Iver and his damn cabin.) … Read More
10 Recent Reissues You Need to Hear
We've been quietly beside ourselves chez Flavorpill of late awaiting The Lost Tapes, the collection of hitherto undiscovered and/or unreleased Can tracks that's due out this week. It's the crowning glory of a six-month period that's been pretty great for reissues/remasters/compilations, so we thought that with the midpoint of the year nigh, it'd be a good time to go ahead and share the other old/new material that has floated our collective boat in the past several months. As ever, we're open to suggestions as to what we might have missed, so let us know what's been on your shopping list. … Read More
10 MP3s You Need to Download for Free This Week: Can, Azealia Banks
It's Friday, and we're back with another installment of our regular roundup of downloadable MP3 goodness from around the web. The most notable piece of action this week is one of the tracks from The Lost Tapes, the new Can compilation over which we've been salivating for quite some time. Elsewhere, there's a potentially #seapunk track from Azealia Banks, a new Mission of Burma track, Los Campesinos! covering The Beautiful South, new work from Slug Guts and Laetitia Sadier, a Cold Cave rarity, and an entire mixtape from Charli XCX. In other words, there's plenty of interesting sounds awaiting you after the jump, and since they won't cost a penny or land you an RIAA lawsuit, as your attorneys we advise you to start downloading immediately. … Read More
10 Albums You Need to Hear in June
Summer is here, and June is shaping up as a bumper month for album releases. As ever, we've pored over release schedules and reviewed our own personal wish list and come up with a list of the ten records we reckon will be worth hearing (and hopefully worth repeated listening) over the coming weeks. They include everything from cerebral 4AD-approved hip hop to the return of Patti Smith, along with something that we'd really, really like for our birthday. What's on your shopping list this month? Let us know in the comments. … Read More
The 10 Most Genuinely Disturbing Songs About Mothers
It's Mother's Day this weekend, and while we love our mothers here at Flavorpill as dearly as anyone, we do get more than a little tired of the wave of Hallmark-card sentimentality that comes with the second Sunday in May. So we thought we'd commemorate the day with something a little darker than yet another list that features Tupac's "Dear Mama" and Paul Simon's "Mother and Child Reunion" — instead, we thought we'd look at some of the more sinister and disturbing songs about mothers and/or motherhood over the years. They're better songs anyway. … Read More

The Tea Party was on the verge of claiming its first incumbent scalp of the 2014 election cycle as insurgent Republican Chris McDaniel appeared to force Sen. Thad Cochran into a GOP primary runoff in Mississippi.
McDaniel, a state senator, led Cochran by just over one thousand votes Tuesday evening with about 95 percent of precincts reporting. That lead put McDaniel at 49.5 percent of the vote, to Cochran's 49 percent, just shy of the 50 percent, plus one, the winner needed to avoid a June 24 runoff.
Cochran, who has served in Congress since 1973 and is seeking his seventh Senate term, presented the Tea Party with perhaps its best opportunity of the election cycle to oust an incumbent GOP senator. And, McDaniel, thanks to a better than expected showing in Jones County, his home turf, might have delivered. Bellwether DeSoto County, a Memphis suburb in the northwest corner of Mississippi, also went strongly for McDaniel.
For McDaniel, it was somewhat of a comeback in the closing weeks of the campaign. On May 17, news broke that a supporter of his was arrested for allegedly slipping into the nursing home where Cochran's wife, Rose, who suffers from dementia, has resided for the past 14 years, and took pictures of her that were subsequently used in an online hit attack video.
The incident, which resulted in the arrest of two other Mississippi Tea Party activists, appeared to stall McDaniel's momentum, buoying Cochran's supporters. But McDaniel appeared to recover in the campaign's final weekend, and it showed in the results Tuesday night.
Runoffs are notoriously low turnout affairs that favor the surging candidate. That could spell doom for Cochran, although the unpredictable nature of this contest could offer yet more surprises before it's all over.

I have compiled a list of designs to make into YouTube video tutorials. Please let me know which ones you'd like to see! I will add to the list as more responses are given. :)
Current List:
Water Marbling***
Magazine Cut-Out
Zebra Sunset
Leopard print
Water-Free Marbling
Nail Foil Designs
Ocean Twist
Geometric (neon)
Abstract Foil Design (tie-dye surprise foil)
Polish Mixing
Glitter Mixing
Some days ago I had asked you all whether you'd like me to do video tutorials. With your thoughts and my thoughts, I came to the conclusion that I'll start doing video tutorials! Yay!
I even went and bought another camera because my Panasonic doesn't record video. Pretty excited!
I will warn you that I have never done any videos for the internet, so I will do my best with editing skills and all that jazz. Hopefully they'll get better over time, but my main focus is that they're helpful!
Let me know what tutorials you'd like to see! Take a look through my nail art… Which ones would you want to be able to learn and do?
Video tutorials… Yay or nay?
1. I just ordered some Floss Gloss! Can't wait 'til it gets here. The bottles themselves look gorgeous!
2. Thank you so much for all the likes, follows, and reblogs! It made my day so much brighter and better with this dreary Ohio weather. I'm so excited to expand my audience and to get back into doing the art I know I can do. And thank you to the Nail Art editors and contributors for featuring my geometric art!
3. I'm working on making some new content for the blog. I know everyone wants more nail art and tutorials, and I will be sure to do so!
I did a guide on mixing colors a while back (click here to see). As those of you that have been following for a long time may know, I mix a lot of colors when I'm making my art (unless I really like the colors… Then I will go buy a whole bottle). I get many questions in my e-mail asking how to mix certain colors, and I love answering those! So with that, I've decided to do mini tutorials on mixing colors. Eventually it'll get to a point where there will be a whole chart showing what color you're trying to make and the colors that you'll need. By doing this, I hope it'll help a lot of you out to expand your abilities and to make your art more unique!
4. I've been doing a lot of thinking lately, and am convincing myself more and more to do video tutorials. I think it would be better than the picture-by-picture tutorials now, especially for the designs that are hard to explain in just words and pictures. Granted, I probably won't be talking in them, but if there is any explaining to be done, I will include it in a caption or something. I just need to get a camera first! I've been looking at the Canon Powershot SX260 HS. The DSLR camera I use for photos doesn't record video, sadly :( But I've heard good things about Canon! And it's something I can save up for.
5. I will get the contest set up soon! I finally decided what I want to give away. I just have to figure out what the contest will consist of. I'll make it fun!
Have a wonderful Friday and a beautiful weekend!
I'm currently working on a new wheel! It's holiday themed, and it's something that reminds me of my childhood. Hopefully I can finish it within the next day or two, depending on how much time I can squeeze in.
I've also been trying to think of some tutorials to do. Someone had messaged me, asking if I could do glitter mixing tutorials. Are there any others that would be for it? Please comment or leave me a message! And if there are any tutorials you'd like me to do on previous designs (or even if you have a suggestion!) please let me know!
Hope everyone is having a great weekend :)

A murder-suicide Monday night may have been caused by jealousy, according to neighbors who sheltered two children while the chaos unfolded.
Dallas SWAT officers arrived in the 7300 block of Fillmore Road after neighbors said they heard three or four gunshots and found 34-year-old Esmerelda Gonzalez dead on the front porch.
The neighbors said they confronted her husband, who said he killed her because he thought she was cheating on him. Efraim Gonzalez then walked to the backyard and shot himself.
Neighbors said they're shocked because the family seemed to get along well.
"They were a really close family. Take trips, they would go on vacation. So we didn't expect this from them," said Marilu Gonzalez, who is not related.
The couple's two children, a 17-year-old girl and a 10-year-old boy, were home at the time of the incident. Friends said they are coping as best as they can now and staying with family members.

There have been tons of spy images of the upcoming Porsche 911/991 Turbo , but unfortunately, all of those images have had a camouflage-donning prototype. Now, however, a very lucky guy managed to catch the next Porsche Turbo testing on the streets of Stuttgart in Germany wearing almost nothing in terms of camouflage.
The upcoming Porsche 911 Turbo will be powered by a twin-turbo six-cylinder engine that will deliver about 540 HP. The engine will be mated to a standard manual gearbox, but the PDK will also be offered as an option. The model will also be offered with a four-wheel steering system that will work in conjunction with the car's all-wheel drive system.
The upcoming Porsche 911/991 Turbo will be making its world debut at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show. Sales will begin shortly thereafter.

Mayor Emanuel announced new efforts to boost small business in Chicago on Thursday. Anyone who has done business in City Hall probably came out saying, "There's got to be a better way."
The mayor said City Hall has found a way to cut the red tape and help entrepreneurs open new businesses in the city faster.
The new Small Business Center is on the eighth floor at City Hall. It's the place to find licenses and permits for construction, or zoning for small businesses.
Through a pilot program involving 200 start-ups over nine months, the city found that on average, a new restaurant would take 180 days to get going. The city's restaurant start-up program cut that time to about 75 days.
Mayor Emanuel said City Hall should be a partner in business, not an obstacle to them. He also said they should treat constituents as customers.
"What happens is they're already getting and have to make payments on their bank line of credit," Emanuel said. "Yet the door is not open, because they didn't get a liquor license or the license came at a different time when the restaurant license came. My goal is to not have people paying the banks before they have to get a customer through the door."
Those restaurant owners said they were so worried about their business plans and their product lines, and they would come to City Hall and would be banging their heads against the wall.
But the City Hall has now cut some of that process. They have reduced the license categories required from 117 to 49 categories. That's still a lot, but the small business owners said it reduces their headaches too.

Chiefs' Haley Says QB Cassel Will Start
by Joe Buscaglia
posted Sep 7 2011 1:20PM
A rib injury has put the status of Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Matt Cassel in question. But it's nothing to worry about according to the team's head coach.
During Wednesday's conference call, Todd Haley told reporters that Cassel would practice and will start for their season opener at home against the Buffalo Bills.
Cassel was very effective for the Chiefs last season, amassing 3,116 yards, 27 touchdowns to only seven interceptions. Cassel and the Chiefs barely squeaked out a 13-10 win over Buffalo last season thanks to 274 yards on the ground. Cassel had only 152 yards passing and a touchdown in the victory.
In his conference call with the Buffalo media, Cassel said the ribs feel great and that he's ready to roll on Sunday against the Bills.
Not practicing for the Bills Wednesday was ILB Arthur Moats. OLB/DE Alex Carrington was back to work.
NT Torell Troup left practice early. He appeared to be favoring his left leg. He did not return and is listed as limited with a lower back injury.

Global Electricity Initiative
Project Partner: Deloitte
The World Energy Council (WEC), together with the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) and the Global Sustainable Electricity Partnership (GSEP), is taking forward the work of the Global Electricity Initiative (GEI) following its successful launch in Durban during COP 17.
The strengthened initiative will identify, collect and analyse the early actions taken worldwide by electricity utilities to enhance climate change mitigation and adaptation. Philippe Joubert, the Executive Chair of the GEI, is leading the efforts to create a dialogue and knowledge platform for utilities to help achieve energy access and climate goals.
Philippe Joubert, Executive Chair of the Global Electricity Initiative says: "By bringing in the combined strengths of the WBCSD, GSEP, and WEC, the Global Electricity Initiative has created for the first time a truly global platform for CEOs and corporate leaders at utilities to share their vision and advance their actions. We hope our combined efforts will form a baseline for sustainability performance to which all electricity utilities and policymakers will aspire and adhere."
Amongst its outputs, the GEI will document best practices to encourage further action in a report to be released in October 2013 during the World Energy Congress in Daegu, South Korea.
Philippe Joubert is the leader of the Global Electricity Initiative partnership with the WEC, WBCSD and GSEP.
He began his career as Secretary for the Chamber of Commerce in Rio de Janeiro in 1976, before holding various positions in Brazilian bank BFB between 1977 to 1982. He moved to the USA to become Commercial Vice-President of Credit Lyonnais USA. Mr Joubert joined Alstom in 1986 as Finance Director of GEC ALSTHOM Mecanica Pesada in Brazil. In 1991 he was appointed President and CEO of GEC ALSTHOM Mecanica Pesada, and became Country President, GEC ALSTHOM Brazil in 1997. Three years later, he was appointed President of Alstom's Transmission & Distribution Sector and member of the Executive Committee of the Alstom Group. In 2004 he became Executive Vice-President of Alstom, Member of the Executive Committee, and President of Power Systems Sector. He also headed Alstom's International Network. From March 2009 until 2012, Mr Joubert has been President of the newly formed Alstom Power Sector, resulting from the merger of all activities related to power generation into a single entity. Today, he is special advisor to Alstom's Chairman and CEO, Patrick Kron.

Samsung to Launch Tizen based Smartphone in India in November 2014
It looks like a Tizen Smartphone launch in India is on the cards, and the launch date is November 2014 for our Linux based friend. Samsung believe that they can use content to differentiate themselves from the competition, enabling them to maintain their lead in the Indian Smartphone market. We are not expecting the launch of the Samsung Z at this point, but more likely the budget Tizen Samsung SM-Z130E or SM-Z130H.

Driving visitors to your pages costs money and/or effort, and your objective should be to maximize the return on the investment into the traffic you are getting.
This class is NOT about search engine optimization (SEO), paid search, or any marketing techniques that drive visitors to your pages. This class is also NOT about UX/UI that's focused on the experience of existing users. This class IS about converting visitors to customers.
This class is on designing your pages to communicate the value of your offer in a way that gets users to take the action you want them to take (buy, sign up, etc.).
You will learn:
There are no pre-requisites, but some understanding or experience in web design would be helpful.
Class agenda includes a presentation and Q&A at the end.
See what others are saying:
Art M said "Amazing value. I have done conversion optimization for years for my start up and even done some consulting on the topic. Boris really knew what he was talking, i showed him my website and in 5 minutes he pointed out flaws that has been escaping me for years. Common practices and just good to know stuff about. For the price this guy charge, it cant be beat. Having someone who does optimization full time consult on your start up site, will save you thousands (maybe much more) of dollars in the long run "
Gabe Yarra said ""Persuasive Design significantly changed the way I think about designing web applications. Boris covered a lot of material in the three hours, all of it interesting and very applicable. He was patient, clear, and seems like a great guy. I'd highly recommend taking Persuasive Design."
Sibte Hassan said "Thank you for the class yesterday and now i have stickies on my screen keeping my focus on what is my objective to design my final interface."
The class is held at The Hatchery, home to early companies needing shared space, growing companies needing dedicated space, and an accelerator program for those just getting started. To apply, visit http://500.hatchery.vc/

Rate Dr. Wen-Sheng Huang
Dr. Wen-Sheng Huang's Ratings
I have horrible allergies. Nuts, dust, and sinus headaches sum it up for me. For 2 years, I saw an allergy specialist at UW medicine. Appointments were 2-3 hours and no joke..I only saw the doctor no more than 60 minutes total over 14 visits. Not only that, all that doctor did was prescribe endless supplies of prescription meds that I would never be able to stop taking. When I did forget my meds, the sinus headaches came back with a vengeance. all. the. time…...So I decided to try seeing Dr Huang since the referral I got was quite glowing. The experience is night and day. Dr Huang holds 1-2 hour appointments and educates you about the issues that are causing the pain (allergies in my case), and treats each aspect 1 at a time. It's working so far! Oh, and he helped me with my sport injuries even though the appointments were to treat allergies. I agree with the other reviewer, he really cares about his patients. Highly recommended.

Dr. Huang is totally amazing. He worked on my right hip pain and left foot ankle pain for more than 2 hours. After treatment I walked out with no pain in my hip,felt much better on my ankle. I just couldn't believe the hip pain for more than 6 months could go away just with one treatment. He could have made more money by seeing patient for 15-20 minutes for each visit like other doctors do, but he chose to take time (1.5-2.5 hrs each visit) with his hands to manipulate on your problems and educate you with knowledge on how to take care of it. Never seen any doctors like Dr. Huang so caring about his patients.

All chemical engineering majors are expected to consult the catalog and handbook before planning their course selections.
Undergraduate Handbook
The department's handbook contains the admissions requirements, program description, academic advising guidelines, general departmental regulations and policies, academic integrity guidelines, special opportunities, related student organizations, graduation tips, curriculum guide, course descriptions, lists of approved electives and faculty profiles of the Chemical, Biochemical and Environmental Engineering Department.
All chemical engineering majors are expected to consult this handbook before planning their course selections. This will greatly aid in making appropriate selections; however, it does not replace the role of the academic advisor. Additionally, students should consult the UMBC Undergraduate Catalog for topics not covered in this booklet.
Program Regulations
The responsibility for proper registration and for satisfying prerequisites for any course rests with the student, as does the responsibility for proper achievement in courses in which the student is enrolled. Each student should be familiar with the provisions of this catalog, including the academic regulations.
It is strongly recommended that every chemical engineering student satisfy the mathematics, chemistry and physics requirements as early as possible in their program.
To be eligible for a bachelor's degree in engineering, a student must have an overall average of at least a "C" (2.0) and a grade of "C" or better in all engineering courses. Responsibility for knowing and meeting all degree requirements for graduation rests with the student.
The Chemical, Biochemical and Environmental Engineering department publishes a handbook which gives the detailed regulations and policies in the department. Students are urged to obtain this handbook in order to aid their planning of a chemical engineering education at UMBC.

Step 1: Assemble Your Supplies
Once I was done eating this particular citrus I saved the seeds and soaked them for a day or so in a glass of water.
Step 2: Preparing The Seeds
Once I had soaked my citrus seeds overnight and set them on the paper towel which I moistened I folded the napkin in half and set it inside the plastic sandwich bag which I sealed. Then I found a very warm spot for them in my bedroom. Since it's winter I take advantage of the heater we have running and place my seed baggies near a vent. The warmth from the heating vent helps with germination especially in the middle of winter when temps aren't really optimal for seed starting.

10 Apps to Make Your Trip to Los Angeles More Heavenly Smartphone Travel App Showcase
When the bone-chilling winds howl and the snowfall persists without end in sight, it's easy to begin daydreaming about a holiday to somewhere warmer. Now is a pleasant (and more affordable) time to visit Los Angeles, a city where winter means low 70 degree weather with evenings warmer than my daytime temperatures. But with its massive sprawl and distinctively different neighborhoods, cracking the City of Angels can be tough for a first time visitor. But it's never been easier when loaded up with apps on your smartphone to help you navigate LA's freeway arteries, discover her best eateries, and experience the sights and sounds beyond the typical...

Kudos to you for including the Metro App. Seriously, LA public transpiration is great. I highly recommend when booking a place here, that you get a place that is near one of the rail lines. That will make your stay SO much more enjoyable. I usually recommend staying in Little Tokyo. Its one of the oldest neighborhoods in downtown, and one that for years has had a nightlife, even when the rest of downtown would be dead. Now its walking distance to two different rail lines, the gold which takes you into East LA and Pasadena, and the Red/Purple line that will take you into Koreatown or north to Hollywood. The only real hard thing is getting to the beach since we don't have a train out there yet. However there is a bus that goes from DT to the beach, but it takes about an hour. Or you can find the Santa Monica Big Blue bus that does the trip in like 30mins depending on traffic.
And yes, if you are visiting go eat food. While we lack a bit in the high end food department, LA street and ethnic foods are basically the best in the country.
Another option for Symbian users (yeah, they do exist), is Nokia Transport. Not specifically for LA, but has good information about metro tables et al.
Oh, just checked: Exists for Windows Phone as well.

The sheriffs for Johnson and Livingston counties in Missouri say they oppose efforts to hinder the rights of Americans to bear arms.
Charles M. Heiss, the Johnson County sheriff, and Steve Cox, the Livingston County sheriff, expressed their concerns in letters to President Barack Obama.
"I am writing to you to express my concern with the tone of your administration with respect to the Second Amendment Rights of American citizens," the letters state. "It appears to me and many Americans that there is a genuine desire on the part of your administration to restrict the Second Amendment rights of law abiding American citizens in the interest of curbing gun violence in our nation."
The Second Amendment is central to a free society, the sheriffs said.
"Any attempt to restrict these Second Amendment rights through executive order is unconstitutional and tantamount to an all out assault on the United States Constitution. Just as the Fourth Amendment to the constitution guarantees our citizens the right to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects against unreasonable search and seizure, the Second Amendment guarantees each of us the right to keep and bear arms to protect ourselves from anyone who would seek to cause us harm. This includes the federal Government," the letter states.
The two men said history shows "that when a society does not possess the ability to defend itself it becomes ripe for victimization by criminals, and ripe for government oppression."
The sheriffs said they are asking other sheriffs in Missouri and across the United States "to rise to the defense and aid of all Americans should the federal government attempt to enact any legislation, or executive order that impedes, erodes, or otherwise diminishes their constitutional right to keep and bear arms. I will use all means legal to meet this solemn and sacred responsibility."
In an interview, Heiss said he could not sit back and do nothing about listening to the president's remarks this week.
"I am absolutely 100 percent pro-Second Amendment. I will not and cannot tolerate an assault on the Second Amendment," he said.
Heiss took office on Jan. 1, 1997. He said he is not a member of the National Rifle Association and owns many guns.
"I was troubled by the willingness to use executive order," Heiss said. "I think the appropriate way to do this is through Congress."
He opposes any attempt to ban so-called assault rifles or limit the capacity of magazines.
"I really don't have heartburn with people owning AR-15s or owning 30-round magazines for target shooting, the 30-round is pretty convenient," he said.
He said the nation needs to tackle its mental health problems.
"I firmly believe that the mental health apparatus in this country is broken," Heiss said. "Our county jails have become a dumping ground for the mentally ill. This is not the place for the mentally ill."

An audit by the Examiners of Public Accounts questioned payments the Alabama Tourism Department paid a regional travel organization. Those payments were $250,000 more than the amount allowed by law.
The payments were made to the Southern Travel Directors Council, also known as Travel South USA, an organization that hosts travel showcases and promotes tourism in 11 southern states.
The organization is only supposed to receive $15,000 in dues or payments in support of its operations from Alabama, but the audit found the state exceeded that amount in each of the fiscal years studied.
In Fiscal Year 2012, that amount paid was $75,710, which is five times the amount allowed by statute. The Tourism Department contended the additional amounts were for services rendered by Travel South, which is allowed. But the audit found the department could not provide professional service agreements for those services and determined the additional amounts "should be considered payments in support of the council" and exceed the limit allowed by law.
The auditors found that any amount over $15,000 should be result from contracts, and those contracts should be submitted to the Contract Review Permanent Legislative Oversight Committee.
Lee Sentell, Director of the Alabama Tourism Department, told WSFA 12 News he agreed with the auditors' findings, and said the Department would work with the Legislative Oversight Committee to comply with state law.
He also said Travel South is a good investment for the state, as the yearly showcases and marketing materials provide exposure that the state otherwise would not receive.
"It's much more efficient to bring tour operators and travel agents and travel writers to a gathering of 11 southern states, instead of one state at a time," said Lee Sentell, Director of the Alabama Tourism Department. ""It's a much more productive and cost efficient way to do business."
Sentell serves on the board of Travel South, along with other tourism officials from member states.

Blogging Slippers
Ana Marie Cox was one of the first nationally known bloggers, serving as editor of the political blog "Wonkette" in 2004. "Wonkette" was a sometimes racy mix of Washington, D.C., gossip and policy issues that Cox, clad in pajamas and slippers, wrote from an office in her home. She relinquished her editorship in 2006.
When Newseum curators approached Cox about donating tools of the blogging trade, she suggested computer equipment. But our curators believed that bedroom slippers — or perhaps Cox's pajamas — more readily highlighted the egalitarian realm of blogging. And what suggests commonality more than a pair of bedroom slippers?
Cox's slippers are on display in the News Corporation News History Gallery.

text: The furniture giant moves up six places this year on the strength of its improved performance. Boosting its score, disclosure improved around operations, product innovation, end-of-life programs, its green product portfolio and quantitative data on governance, particularly around impact reduction targets. IKEA is focused on a People & Planet Positive sustainability strategy for 2020. While transparent about its initiatives and establishing clear benchmarks for suppliers, the public perception and visibility of the strategy, which was launched in October, has room to grow. IKEA has been working to create a sustainability-focused supply chain, working with 80 auditors and phasing out all furnishing suppliers that did not agree to comply with IKEA's IWAY standards for sustainability. By supporting UTZ-certified standards for coffee, tea, and cocoa production, and requiring that suppliers work with farmers to promote water conservation through practices like drip irrigation, IKEA has made a commitment to sustainable farming. However, the headline-making discovery of horsemeat in its meatballs—along with other brands—in addition to mislabeled elk meat lasagna and the discovery of fecal bacteria in almond cakes impacted the perception of its supplier relationships. According to its 2012 Sustainability Report, IKEA's goal is to operate 100 percent of its stores on renewable energy by 2020. IKEA owned and operated 126 wind turbines in six countries, placed 250,000 solar panels on their buildings, and produced 34 percent of their energy consumption through renewable energy. IKEA is clearly committed to selling sustainable products. As of 2012, 91 percent of materials used in IKEA products were renewable, recyclable, or recycled.

Charley Presents "Vickie's Corner" – A Tip Of The Hat To The Helpers Among Us
In the midst of the Boston Marathon Bombing, the devastating explosion in West Texas and now the largest manhunt holding an entire city hostage, we all find comfort in knowing there are always "good" people amongst us and we are reminded of that daily. Here is another great perspective from a non-media based friend.
Major Police Operation Underway in Boston Suburb [UPDATED]
6:55 AM ET: The AP is reporting that the suspects are from Chechnya, and have lived in the US for at least one year. The surviving Boston bomb suspect has been identified as Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, 19, of Cambridge, Ma. NBC News is reporting that both suspects are brothers. Sources say that the men may have military experience, according to law enforcement officials.
6:30 AM ET: CNN is reporting that officials are worried that the suspect who remains at large could have explosives on his body. An official tells the network that the suspect killed overnight had explosives on his body. As a result, city officials have suspended all public transportation for the time being. Those in Watertown and the surrounding neighborhoods are being urged to shelter in place until further notice. Many colleges have cancelled classes for the day. Businesses are being told not to open.
