My college life drawing teacher said something to the class that I cant make sense out of. He said "If you think you are going to make a living out of art, start thinking again. You are not."
It was so demoralizing that I dont know what to make out of it.

Mmmm, well, maybe things didnt go as planned for him and ended up teaching and now hates life or something.. or just want to test you guys out...see who are the ones that really are willing to do as possible to make a living out of art.
-We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then, is not an act, but a habit.

If he is making a living out of art, why can't you?
My head tutor said a similar thing, that it's really really hard and not everyone makes it, I think she gave like 1 out of every 10 students in our class or something. I don't think she meant to be demolarising but she just wanted to prepare us mentally for how tough it would be. Sort of a test, see if we were truly passionate about doing it I guess.
You should ask him to elaborate, maybe?
It sounds like she was maybe trying to ween out the ones who aren't serious. It's a tough way to make a living and needs years persistence and dedication. Those who choose to carry on working regardless of hearing those types of comments are likely the ones who'll end up making it. If you lose interest in art because of it, then chances are you wouldn't have the dedication to make a living doing art, anyway.
i think it depends on what living means to people,

My finished paintings and other work
in my design-faculty, 38 of the 40 students who started with me all had illustration portfolios at the beginning. that was 3 years ago.
I think 2 or 3 of them are still doing illustration, the rest (me too) moved to graphic/interactive design or photography.
Just try to prove him wrong.
To at least 95% of the people in there he was probably 100% accurate.
Well, obviously it's possible to make a living off of art. It's just extremely hard and in most cases requires a lot of business and financial sense and sacrifice. It takes one many years to build their career into something that is very lucrative.
You're going to have to think of a better plan than "sit around, feel apprehensive"?

"There are two kinds of students: the self-taught and the hopeless."
- Dr. Piotr Rudnicki
I agree to what's been said. An alternate theory is that, harsh as it sounds, maybe he feels that no one in that particular class is putting in the amount of work required to make art their career. In this case, the same response applies: "prove him wrong." And don't worry about how much work anyone else puts in, just worry about putting in as much as you can.
Not sure where you're going to school, but be careful taking any college professors too seriously. You certainly can make a living out of art. It's funny how some people treat hard work as if it's something that hasn't been around forever.
the problem with an instructor saying things like this, no matter what their reason for it, they dont know the background of the people they are saying it to.
my girlfriend is an amazing illustrator. better than me in fact. but she was told something similar in school and ended up quitting drawing altogether. i've seen her work, and she's amazing. way better than i am.
but i'm the working professional, not her. the only reason i succeeded where she didn't was because i've always had a fuck you attitude to anyone who said i couldn't do something. including family.
my girlfriend on the other hand, even though she's an amazing artist, has always struggled with low self esteem.
hearing that shit from an instructor destroyed her.
when i heard it i said this dude is full of shit.
you need to tattoo "fuck you" to your chest and bust it out like super man.

An apathetic instructor who scorns him or herself for their own short comings in whatever romantic endeavor they outlined for their art careers will always take out their frustrations and misfortune on the students. Ultimately someone like this typically doesn't really enjoy teaching and will mask this truth behind a false since of compassion and forewarning for the big bad commercial world. One persons missed success has nothing to do with your own. Know your market, know your demographic, and focus on pushing your creative and technical skills to suit that outlet. Success can be measured in many different ways so don't let that affect your growth and passions. Just make great art and see where it takes you.
"it's much easier to scale up from simplicity than to scale back from complexity"
I'm of the idea that it was a test in the students' fortitude. The art world is full of criticism, so what better way to prepare them for that criticism than with the single worst one, straight from the beginning: "You're never going to make it; the ends will never be worth the effort."
Very Tyler Durden, if you ask me, haha.
I think teachers are correct in telling people most people won't make it. Because most won't. Its a kindness to give them permission to fail.
I was told the same thing in workshops and classes, I just never thought they were talking about me.
"i think it depends on what living means to people,"
thats exactly right; if you want a steady £4000 a month and a company Audi, forget it. If you like designing stuff all day, building a business and being able to smoke at your desk, go for it.

The teacher is not entirely at fault for why your girlfriend is not the working artist, would she have lasted after a client had yelled some crap at her? Or after sending out 50 portfolio and hearing nothing? Or having an exhibition and being bullshited by someone trying to make themselves look good by crapping on her work?
I'm sure her work is awesome but unless she can be isolated from the outside world, it might not be enough.
If someone leaves college because the teacher said they would never make a living with art, they wouldn't have lasted much longer in the art world anyways.
I know really successful artist/teachers who say the same thing to their classes. If you let a few words from a teacher decide your future then you have no business being a success. Understand the reality and then change it if you have the stuff. I give students facts and figures, earning numbers etc. But I always include that someone has to do it.An apathetic instructor who scorns him or herself for their own short comings in whatever romantic endeavor they outlined for their art careers will always take out their frustrations and misfortune on the students.
You can give teachers respect and learn what you can but never give them the power to decide your future.
I know people who make a living off art, but they work long, lonely hours and earn the same as me in my minimum wage call centre job. Due to the nature of freelancing there are times when they have no money coming in and really struggle. And obviously they have to draw what the client wants not what they find fun.
I also know a lot of really talented artists who have been struggling to get to the point of working full time as an artist for years but have yet to succeed.
These are some of the reasons I decided to go into design instead of illustration. And design's still bloody hard to get into!
It depends how narrowly you define art. The only people I know who made a go of fine arts were bankrolled by somebody for a minimum of ten years (rich parents, indulgent spouse).
But if you broaden it to include any work where a visual education is required...squitillions of people make a living at art.
I was once on the receiving end of a critique so savagely nasty, I marched straight out of class to the office and changed my major (sketchbook).
my girlfriend is amazing illustrator, and when she was in school she was very impressionable. not so much NOW, if someone had said these things to her NOW she'd say "psh, whatever." and continue doing her thing.
just plain bad timing in her case, and thats the risk of saying things like this to poeple you dont know.
its like that fucking cunt of a sarah palin putting crosshairs on people, then surprise surprise, someone got shot. you can say all you want that she didn't say shoot this person, but she had a hand in it because you never know who you're talking to.
in my girlfriends case, she was already a little self conscious about her work, didn't think she was very good. people have self esteem issues ya know. and to hear the things some people are just plain devastated by it.
as they grow and mature they develop an armor, but as a teacher you should assume that these kids dont have that shit yet.
tell the the truth about their work individually, give a critique. and if its an extreme case, yeah, tell them that they're going to have a tough time finding work in the industry with their work. but follow that up with "keep at it though, study study study, practice every day, draw from life every day and you'll get there" because thats the truth.
you cant just say "bah, you suck. you'll never get a job in this industry" and leave it at that. especially if you're an instructor.
how does that phrase go....<<<it's not entirely fair, as some artists can balance a successful career creating art, whilst teaching art at the same time>>>
if you fail at art, be an art teacher,
if you fail at teaching art, be a critic....
This teacher sounds like he's already failing at being an art teacher, and getting his criticisms in early
Just like in every profession, there are bad teachers and there are good teachers. I just happen to think that saying that very few people make a living with art isn't the criteria that makes them bad teachers. I wish someone had layed the cards on the table when I was in college and not at the end of 3rd year and I was not even in art school.

Should be simple, but isn't, image alignment
I am trying to align the text so it is level with the image in the above link. The text should sit perfectly aligned in the centre of the image (and to the left of it).
I think the included CSS file (see the source) is causing issues.
There's a lot going on in the CSS file.
The link provided is just a test so I can demonstrate without showing an entire web page.
If the provided link can be aligned, and whilst still using the included CSS file, then I will be able to get the full site working from that.
How can I do this? I have tried many things but the image just does't move.
Thanks in advance for any help.

The Herald Bulletin
---- — FISHERS — Pendleton Heights junior Sydney McCullum scored two goals and her Arabians teammates added four more as they advanced to the soccer sectional title match with a 6-0 win over Anderson.
McCullum not only scored two goals, but one of them was the first goal of the match. It was a key moment and it happened less than five minutes into the match.
"That one got the monkey off our back so to speak," said PH coach Mark Davy. "It made everyone feel better and we kind of gained momentum after that."
Asked what she remembered about that goal and McCullum said, "I remember all of my teammates working hard, getting the ball to me and cheering for me after it."
Another big moment came less than three minutes later when Anderson senior Monica Robinson came free with the ball and headed toward the goal with no PH defender between her and goalkeeper Sam Hammel. Robinson got off the shot. Hammel took it in her hands, the ball started to come free but she quickly regained possession to end the threat.
"We wanted to watch out for No. 13 (Robinson)," said Davy. "She's one of the fastest players we play against all season. We didn't want her to get loose."
With just under 28 minutes left in the first half, Pendleton sophomore Madison Wiles put in a shot just under the crossbar to give PH a 2-0 lead.
With 21:51 left in the half, McCullum again worked her way free for a shot. Anderson keeper Clarise Clapp made the save but the rebound came free and back to McCullum and she put it to the back of the net for a 3-0 advantage.
"Sydney really stepped up for us today," said Davy. "She hasn't put those shots away all the time during the season. She did it tonight."
With 18:48 to play before intermission, the Indians were awarded a free kick about 30 yards from the PH goal. Desiree Robinson took the shot and it went high over the crossbar.
The second half started slowly for both teams in terms of good scoring chances. But with six minutes gone, the Arabians got the offense rolling again. Shelby Fort's shot was a good one but it didn't go in. The rebound came out to Emily Church, who made it 4-0.
Seniors Hannah Watts and Ellie Sweeney finished the scoring.
Clapp went down with just 28 seconds left in the game after she was accidentally kicked during a scrum around the goal. She remained prone on the ground for several minutes, but when she got back to her feet she decided to remain in goal for the final seconds of her high school career.
The Arabians will play in the championship at 6 p.m. on Saturday against the winner of Thursday's other semifinal game. Hamilton Southeastern and Fishers played in that contest.
The Indians end their season but they will say goodbye to just five players from the sectional roster.

Well, while die hard "The Simpsons" fans have already been told they're going to have to wait at least 10-15 years for another big screen outing, the show continues to soldier on, recently wrapping up its 24th season. But it looks like the show is still trying to surprise, and in a move we thought would never happen, it's going to crossover with another Fox animated hit, that owes its success to the Springfield family.
TVLine reveals Peter Griffin and the clan from "Family Guy," are going to leave Quahog, Rhode Island, to visit Homer and his family in Springfield, No Specified State, in an episode to air in fall 2014. According to the site, the story will find Peter and Homer "drinking brews and debating whether Duff or Pawtucket is the better beer" while "Stewie is charmed by Bart's old-school mischief; Lisa makes it her mission to find Meg's talent (good luck with that!); and Marge and Lois become bosom buddies." What? (Also, no Brian?).
This is almost as weird as that time Homer and Ned became friends. We're mostly curious to see how these comic sensibilities mesh, since "Family Guy" tends to favor button-pushing-let's-throw-to-the-AIDS-joke humor while "The Simpsons" tends to be wittier and more intellectual (for lack of a better word). Can this even work? Guess we'll find out, and we have to say, it's a savvy move on Fox's part, because even those vehemently against the idea will still tune in out of curiosity.
Or course, this isn't the first time "The Simpsons" has done a crossover episode. In the sixth season, Jon Lovitz's character from the short-lived, but excellent, "The Critic" dropped by "The Simpsons" to be on the jury of a film festival in the episode, titled "A Star Is Burns." But that gambit worked, not only because the characters in the episode acknowledged the crossover directly, but also because both shows shared a similar voice, thanks to 'Simpsons' writers Al Jean and Mike Reiss, who left to work on that program.
Anyway, we'll see how it all works out. But what do you think? Is this synergy gone too far?
Rob | July 18, 2013 4:22 PM
Well, both shows really suck now and have for the better part of a decade, so why not do a little cross-promotion? It won't be funny or even well-written, but who gives a shit anymore?
Richard Schitz | July 18, 2013 4:20 PM
Springfield was revealed to be located in Portland a few seasons ago. Dumb.
Also, pre-requisite 'the Simpsons hasn't been good since season 10 and Family Guy has never been good' post
Stephen B | July 18, 2013 4:14 PM
Worth noting that Matt Groening took his name off the credits for The Critic crossover episode and he and Brooks had a public row over it. I assume this has everyone's approval and seems more like a cross-promotion exercise than using one show's success to leverage the other show.
Ken Guidry | July 18, 2013 4:08 PM
Mike Groening also took his name off that episode where The Critic appears. I wonder if he'll leave his name on this one.... I'm thinking "yes," as he's probably stopped caring a long time ago.

TEAMS: Syracuse Orange, West Virginia Mountaineers
The man who predicted 30 sacks in the offseason had some catching up to do against West Virginia. He may not reach that goal, but Syracuse fans will let him off the hook. Chandler Jones returned to the field for SU's dominating 49-23 victory over the Mountaineers and made an immediate difference on a hungry Orange defensive unit that wiped the turf with Geno Smith. Follow The Fizz on Twitter for the latest SU football news Jones had 6 tackles, 2 sacks and drove Smith out of the pocket numerous times, forcing him to make uncomfortable throws all night. It was a relief to see #99 back on the field, who said it "felt great" to return, but gave all the credit to his defensive coordinator, Scott Shafer. "Our team as a whole (played well). Coach Shafer did a great job of knowing when to call a blitz and when to sit back. Congratulations to Coach Shafer, he put a great game plan together." Shafer called for blitzes early and often, and his defense got to Smith at the right times. When t...

Several media outlets uncritically reported President Bush's claim that he delayed the release of his new "way forward in Iraq" strategy from before Christmas to until January 2007 to allow new Defense Secretary Robert Gates to join the policy discussion and visit Iraq. These media outlets did not mention that the White House scheduled Gates' swearing-in ceremony fully 12 days after his Senate confirmation in order for him to attend commencement at Texas A&M before resigning as the school's president.
Since the Democratic Party won control of both the House and the Senate, the media have focused on such issues as Pelosi's choice of attire and whether being female will affect her ability to lead. MSNBC anchor Contessa Brewer wondered if Pelosi's "personal feelings [were] getting in the way of effective leadership" -- a problem she suggested would not surface in "men-run leadership posts" -- and whether men were "more capable of taking personality clashes."
In reporting that Sen. Mel Martinez had accepted an offer to become chairman of the Republican National Committee, CNN's John King failed to mention Martinez's admission in April 2005 that his office had authored a memo touting the Terri Schiavo case as "a great political issue" for Republicans because "the pro-life base will be excited" and it "is a tough issue for Democrats." King also ignored the controversies surrounding Martinez's 2004 Senate campaign.
Media figures have attributed Democratic gains in the House and Senate in the midterm elections to the number of wins by conservative or moderate Democratic challengers and have suggested that because the party's victory in the House was purportedly "built on the back of more centrist candidates," the incoming Democratic majority will be sharply divided. However, a Media Matters for America survey of the policy positions of 27 victorious House candidates found that they all agree on a core set of issues, including raising the minimum wage and protecting Social Security.
During an interview with White House counselor Dan Bartlett, CNN's Tony Harris touted newly released unemployment figures while ignoring the negative news -- that the job creation rate for the month of October fell well short of expectations. Harris also failed to challenge Bartlett's claims that Democrats would raise taxes if they win control of Congress; that the wealthy "are paying more as a percentage of taxes than they did before the tax relief"; and that Democrats must raise taxes because "it's fundamentally within their DNA to spend money."
CNN anchors and reporters stated or suggested without evidence that the controversy over Sen. John Kerry's remarks will have an impact on the midterm elections, despite the fact that Kerry is not running for office in the election.
CNN's Candy Crowley uncritically aired Tennessee Republican Senate candidate Bob Corker's false claim that he has "never said a negative word" about the family of his Democratic opponent, Rep. Harold Ford Jr. In fact, Corker has "question[ed]" Ford's father's employment as a lobbyist, and Corker's campaign has repeatedly attacked Ford's family as the "Ford Political Machine."

Judy Willis says she is still in disbelief over being named Indiana Educator of the Year by the Indiana Criminal Justice Association.
Willis, a teacher at Logansport Juvenile Correctional Facility, has taught English and language arts at the facility for 18 years.
"There are so many teachers in this environment that do great things and are deserving of the award, including many I work with," Willis said. "They all deserve recognition. I'm glad this brings recognition to the facility."
The award is meant to acknowledge innovation, excellence and outstanding achievements of those in criminal justice education who provide high quality instruction for incarcerated offenders and criminal justice students, a press release said.
With working at the Logansport Juvenile Correctional Facility for 18 years, Willis recalls being overwhelmed at the beginning. She also recalls having a mentor, Jenny Guy, who showed her a lot of the ropes. Willis recalls Guy requesting the worst kids. She was also influenced by her niece, Natalie Gerhart, who when diagnosed with cancer was determined to become the best teacher she could be. Although Gerhart passed away, she has been an inspiration to Willis.
"Jenny showed me how to get the most from the kids, how to get their respect and give them respect," Willis said. "If it hadn't been for her, I don't know I would have advanced as much."
Along with learning from her mentor, she has learned from the students. Willis said she has had every type of student, including some who have skipped school and others who have commented horrible crimes.
"They've done some bad things and some will continue to do bad things, but when they come in here and have an accomplishment it's really cool," Willis said. "I've learned every kid is capable of achieving."
Willis laughed, talking about how her room is comparable to the front of a refrigerator with all of her student's accomplishments. The students have enjoyed participating and having their work displayed, she said. Pictures and papers — even an entire wall of poetry — decorate her room.

Sewing kits range from $12 to $20, depending on what materials you'd like to include. Julie Jackson is the crafter behind them. See also these bracelets, too (those are not for sale) (subversivecrossstitch.com, via Fuzzy Gerdes)
Subversive anti-cancer cross-stitch kits

Unfortunately exhaustive studies have recently shown that attitude had NO effect. Still anything on the wall with FUCK written on it has to be good.
Anonymous, I'm not so sure about that.
I'm confident that the studies you refer to were conducted correctly, but a controlled study controls for everything, and if someone with a positive attitude behaves differently, or seeks different treatment options, from a person with a negative or defeatist attitude, this would be factored out. So the studies considered people with different attitudes who got the exact same treatment, same nutrition, same level of exercise, the works.
But it seems to me that someone with an attitude that he/she is going to do whatever it takes to beat the cancer is going to take actions that someone who wants to roll over and die would not take. This wouldn't show up in studies or would be factored out.
Love it! Anytime you can work the word "fuck" into a piece with pink bunnies, you know you've found perfection.
Working on beating the disease myself- love this sentiment. I wear hats and shirts that say "Cancer Sucks" in pink of course. It does make me feel better!!!
The only good thing about cancer is this:
Q: "How do you prove beyond a reasonable doubt that Intelligent Design is just the stuff of fantasies?"
A: "Cancer"
And anyone who tries to refute this claim will come across as foolish and desperate…
To clarify on the bracelets, my wife came up with the idea, but we don't make or sell them — we just ordered a batch from http://24hourwristbands.com/ to give out to friends and family because it makes us feel good to yell back at the fucking cancer.
@fuzzy: awesome. Clarifying in the post.
when I was doin my chemo time, pals bought me a hat from Angie at Deviant Goods
they are made from very soft yarn, with no thread stitching at the seams. Designed for people who are going through chemo, when sensitivity is an issue.
I love the idea of cross stitch on the wall, and bracelets for friends/supporters, but a nice warm soft hat is yummy, when you feel like slightly radiated, hammered poo
I don't want to be Correcto-Jones, but I don't want to claim undeserved credit. I'm just a satisfied customer of Subversive Crossstitch and a cancer-hater. Julie Jackson is the genius behind SCS.

As hitter after hitter came up empty, everything finally fell apart for Auburn's baseball team on Sunday afternoon at Plainsman Park.With Auburn's scoreless inning streak at 29, Mississippi State broke loose for eight runs on nine hits in the seventh inning and romped to a 12-1 victory and a sweep of the weekend series. The Tigers, shutout by 3-0 scores on Friday and Saturday, were left with their postseason hopes hanging by a thread.

Tue Mar 30, 2010 11:44 amTommy Manzella (quad) is scheduled to serve as the designated hitter in a minor league game Tuesday.
Fantasy Source Spin: He's penciled into the leadoff spot and is expected to take at-bats for five innings. Manzella, 27 in April, was 9-for-30 before straining his right quad last week. He will start at shortstop for the Astros this season.

Tue Mar 30, 2010 11:42 amMike Gonzalez (back) is expected to make back-to-back appearances starting Tuesday afternoon.
Fantasy Source Spin: The goal of every reliever in spring training is to pitch back-to-back outings before the start of the regular season. Gonzalez is on a good pace after sitting out a few days last week with a back injury. He had a 2.42 ERA and a 90/33 K/BB ratio last season for Atlanta.

Tue Mar 30, 2010 11:19 amSI.com's Jon Heyman reports that the Royals have joined the bidding for free agent left-hander Jarrod Washburn.
Fantasy Source Spin: Heyman reported last week that the Mariners are "seriously considering" Washburn, and confirmed Tuesday that talks remain open between the sides. In other words, it's now a two-horse race for the left-hander, who went 9-9 last season with a 3.78 ERA but had a 7.33 ERA over his last eight starts.

Tue Mar 30, 2010 10:39 amCraig Tatum has been awarded the Orioles' backup catching job.
Fantasy Source Spin: Tatum won the gig over veteran Chad Moeller, who has been reassigned to minor league camp. The 27-year-old Tatum is 3-for-17 this spring and will carry little fantasy value this season as Matt Wieters' understudy.
Tue Mar 30, 2010 10:17 amRaul Ibanez (arm) returned to the Phillies' lineup Tuesday.
Fantasy Source Spin: Ibanez missed Monday's game after being plunked in the right arm by Yankees left-hander Royce Ring over the weekend. The 37-year-old is just 4-for-41 this spring with 10 strikeouts and seven walks.
Source: Alden Gonzalez on Twitter
Tue Mar 30, 2010 9:58 amDioner Navarro returned to the Rays' lineup Tuesday.
Fantasy Source Spin: Great news. Navarro was carted off the field after an ugly home plate collision a little over a week ago and Rays fans feared the worst. But he's already back in action and should be fine for Opening Day. Navarro, who just turned 26, was 7-for-15 this spring before the injury.

Tue Mar 30, 2010 9:47 amJ.J. Putz said Monday that he's still dealing with a "little bit of dead arm," but that his right elbow is just fine.
Fantasy Source Spin: The White Sox are confident that Putz will be ready for the start of the regular season. "It seems solid to me," he said of his surgically-repaired right elbow. "I'm not doing anything that I haven't done in the past. I don't feel like I'm restricted in anything. The only thing that's still really to come probably is the velocity, getting to the top end of the velocity."

Tue Mar 30, 2010 9:38 amYunel Escobar (back) returned to the Braves' lineup Tuesday.
Fantasy Source Spin: Escobar missed several games in a row with a sore back, but is just fine now. He's 13-for-40 this spring with one homer and nine RBI.
Source: Dave O'Brien on Twitter
Tue Mar 30, 2010 9:32 amMarlins released RHP Seth McClung.
Fantasy Source Spin: The 29-year-old righty allowed nine hits and nine earned runs in 7 1/3 innings this spring while trying to win a spot in the Marlins' bullpen. He's likely to get a shot with another organization.
Tue Mar 30, 2010 8:57 amKelvim Escobar told the Newark Star-Ledger Tuesday that he expects to hang back at extended spring training at least through April.
Fantasy Source Spin: Escobar felt fine after a game of catch Monday, but he's not taking any chances with his weak right shoulder. The veteran was signed to a one-year, $1.25 million contract this offseason and the Mets are hoping he will be able to serve as a setup man behind Francisco Rodriguez by early May.

Mon Mar 29, 2010 11:21 pmAthletics manager Bob Geren is optimistic about the timetable for Michael Wuertz (shoulder) to return.
Fantasy Source Spin: "He won't throw for five days, but we'll start him back up after that," Geren said of Wuertz, who was diagnosed with rotator cuff tendinitis on Monday. "It won't set him back too far. I don't know how to classify it, but we're very optimistic about the results." Wuertz is almost certain to begin the season on the disabled list, but he will be eligible to return by as soon as April 10.

Mon Mar 29, 2010 11:15 pmCraig Breslow (elbow) returned to action against the Mariners on Monday.
Fantasy Source Spin: Breslow had been out of action since March 14 due to tendinitis in his left elbow. "Everything felt good," said Breslow. "Now it's just a matter of feeling comfortable out there again. I think that just comes with time, so I'll keep improving my next couple times out." He should only need a couple more outings to be ready for the start of the season.
Mon Mar 29, 2010 11:04 pmAndrew Bailey (elbow) made his first appearance since March 14 against the Mariners on Monday afternoon.
Fantasy Source Spin: On the down side, Bailey gave up a go-ahead home run to Franklin Gutierrez, but he came away from the outing feeling good. "I was trying to establish my fastball and feel back on the mound," said Bailey. "I felt it went outstanding, even though we lost." Last year's American League Rookie of the Year said he will "definitely be ready for Opening Day."
Mon Mar 29, 2010 9:55 pmRussell Branyan (back) is scheduled to be the designated hitter in a minor league game on Tuesday.
Fantasy Source Spin: Provided he doesn't suffer any setbacks, he could play in first base on Wednesday. Regardless, he is expected to open the season on the disabled list. Branyan estimates that he'll need 35 at-bats in the minor leagues before he'll be ready to return. "It's the smartest thing for both parties to continue to rehab and come back with a regimented schedule," said Branyan. "There's no sense in being selfish and rushing." While he's sidelined, Matt LaPorta will play first base and Michael Brantley will play left field.

Mon Mar 29, 2010 8:33 pmMark Teixeira was diagnosed with a right elbow contusion.
Fantasy Source Spin: Great news. Teixeira was forced to leave Monday night's game after being plunked on the right elbow by Jeremy Guthrie, however no X-rays were taken. He'll be reevaluated on Tuesday and likely sidelined for the next couple of days.
Source: Mark Feinsand on Twitter
Mon Mar 29, 2010 8:31 pmRays manager Joe Maddon doesn't believe Matt Joyce (elbow) will be ready for the start of the season.
Fantasy Source Spin: "I'm not highly optimistic at this point he's going to be ready for the season, but still holding out on it a little bit to make sure," said Maddon. "I talked to (athletic trainer Ron Porterfield) again. More than likely not be ready but we don't want to rule it out yet." A strained right elbow has prevented Matt Joyce from playing in the outfield. Provided he starts the season on the disabled list, look for Ben Zobrist to split time between second base and right field while Gabe Kapler and Sean Rodriguez net some extra at-bats.

Mon Mar 29, 2010 6:44 pmBrandon Morrow (shoulder) completed a 52-pitch simulated game on Monday.
Fantasy Source Spin: Morrow walked away from the effort confident about his chances of being ready for the beginning of the season. "It's just a sore shoulder," said Morrow. "If you look in the paper, there's 20 guys with it. Most of those guys will probably be on their club to start Opening Day. They're just conservative during spring, and that's what we were." Provided the Blue Jays have no plans to place him on the disabled list, Morrow is expected to throw 75-80 pitches against the Astros on Saturday.
Mon Mar 29, 2010 6:38 pmJesse Carlson (knee) allowed an unearned run on two hits in one inning of relief against the Tigers on Monday afternoon.
Fantasy Source Spin: Sidelined by a sore MCL in his left knee for most of camp, it was his first Grapefruit League appearance since March 5. "It felt good," said Carlson. "My arm felt good. My knee felt great. So, overall I'm pretty happy." With a couple more appearances under his belt, the southpaw should be ready for Opening Day.

Mon Mar 29, 2010 6:32 pmJoe Thatcher (shoulder) will likely begin the season on the disabled list.
Fantasy Source Spin: Thatcher, who hasn't appeared in a game since March 19, received a cortisone shot for an impingement in his left shoulder on Sunday. "There's concern with Joe not starting the year," manager Bud Black said. "It's not long-term, but there is concern. ... We're going to quiet him down." The 28-year-old southpaw got off to a rough start last season, but finished with a very impressive 2.80 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 55/18 K/BB ratio in 45 innings. It would be a tough early blow to San Diego's bullpen.

Mon Mar 29, 2010 5:50 pmRed Sox pitching coach John Farrell addressed the timeline on Junichi Tazawa, who visited Dr. James Andrews to have his right elbow examined on Monday.
Fantasy Source Spin: "He's been dealing with some discomfort, some tightness, in the second half of last year," Farrell explained. "He went through a normal offseason, didn't have any issues, came into spring training, went through every outlined throwing session that we had and there were varying degrees of tightness or discomfort at different points this spring. And then in games his velocity was not quite where it was in the past and his breaking stuff was not as sharp. And even in his last bullpen he felt there was a little bit of tightness. I wouldn't say it was further, or getting worse, but precautionary we wanted to send him to see Andrews and get that evaluation." The Red Sox have not yet heard back a report since the examination.

Mon Mar 29, 2010 5:42 pmKoji Uehara (hamstring) expects to begin this season on the disabled list.
Fantasy Source Spin: He is recovering from a torn tendon in his right elbow and has taken it easy this spring when he wasn't suffering from the hamstring injury. There is not yet a timetable for his return.
Source: Brittany Ghiroli on Twitter
Mon Mar 29, 2010 4:48 pmJ.P. Howell, shut down 10 days ago because of a sore left shoulder, said he is ahead of schedule.
Fantasy Source Spin: He was told to refrain from throwing for at least two weeks. "I'm way ahead of schedule right now," Howell said. "I'm very happy right now. It's easy to sleep knowing I'm making progress." He will undergo a strength test on April 5. Howell will begin the season on the disabled list. He had a 2.84 ERA and 1.20 WHIP in 69 relief appearances last season and will be sorely missed.
Mon Mar 29, 2010 3:54 pmMike Lamb delivered a pinch-hit double in his lone at-bat Monday, giving him a .417 average this spring.
Fantasy Source Spin: It looks like Lamb will be Ross Gload's replacement on Florida's bench. He's 10-for-24 with five doubles and eight RBI this spring.
Tue Feb 19, 2013 2:50 pm
Phillies pitching coach Rich Dubee indicated Tuesday that team will likely go with either Cole Hamels or Cliff Lee on opening day
Fantasy Source Spin: Halladay has made 10 straight opening day starts, but that streak could come to an end this year, as the club would prefer to split Hamels and Lee up in the rotation. "I think it's how we line up best," said Dubee. "Realistically, we could pitch anybody the first day as far as Doc, Cole and Cliff. On most staffs, they are No. 1 starters, so they all could pitch opening day. But part of what we're thinking is trying to split those two lefties. Last year we started with two lefties (after Halladay) and I'd just like to split them up."

Wilson had no shame in signing a lucrative five-year deal with the Angels after coming up with Texas. His contract looked good early in the year, but Wilson's poor control returned and bit him in the second half with a 5.54 ERA in 16 starts. It was also a surprise that Wilson had more issues keeping the ball in the park after moving out of hitter-friendly Arlington, though homers were still not a major issue. The return of his BB/9 rate at 4.0 could be a real problem if it continues, however.
Fantasy Source Spin: His value has fallen slightly, and rightfully so since Wilson's poor control has returned. Last season may be the real deal if he doesn't correct those issues quickly.
Source: Fantasy Source
Thu Jan 31, 2013 11:29 am
Wilson made only two appearances before undergoing Tommy John surgery in mid-April, effectively ending his 2012 season. There were some warning signs during his 2011 campaign, including losses in velocity and control. The surgery will hopefully allow him to rebound fully, but the Giants found an alternative in Sergio Romo late last season.
Fantasy Source Spin: Wilson's reputation alone should allow him to get his role back at some point, though it remains to be seen how good his control will be after the injury.
Thu Jan 31, 2013 11:29 am
Williams opened 2012 as the Angels' fifth starter after re-emerging late in 2011, but his results were mixed. The former top prospect had a 4.83 ERA in 15 starts, though his plus command still showed and could get him another opportunity in the future.
Fantasy Source Spin: Good command still makes him a potential single-league fill-in if he gets starts again.
Thu Jan 31, 2013 11:28 am
Wilhelmsen's great story culminated with the closer role in Seattle, as he replaced the struggling Brandon League last season. Wilhelmsen signed with Seattle in 2009 after a four-year hiatus from baseball, and his mid-90s fastball has made him a dominant reliever for the club. His 9.9 K/9 rate and 3.00 K/BB ratio of 2012 is the stuff of pure closers, and Wilhelmsen pitched even better in save situations than normal with a 1.76 ERA.
Fantasy Source Spin: Some will think Wilhelmsen is unproven as a closer, but all the peripherals show he can be a fine second-tier option.
Mon Jun 23, 2014 8:44 am
Joe Smith allowed a home run to Brad Snyder in the ninth inning of Sunday's win over the Rangers.
Fantasy Source Spin: But he struck out two of the other three batters he faced to protect the Angels' late lead. It was a non-save situation. Smith is currently in a committee at closer with Ernesto Frieri, Mike Morin and maybe a few others.
Thu Jun 19, 2014 5:03 pm
Carlos Martinez will start Sunday against the Phillies.
Fantasy Source Spin: He'll take the place of Michael Wacha, who will have his turn skipped in the rotation in order to give him a little rest. Martinez allowed an unearned run on two hits over four innings against the Mets on Monday. He might not work deep into the game on Sunday either, but he could make for an appealing streaming option.
Source: Derrick Goold on Twitter

The Cardinals will skip Michael Wacha's next start.
Fantasy Source Spin: There's nothing wrong with Wacha, but the Cardinals want to give him a little bit of a breather. This is the perfect time to do it, as Adam Wainwright is slated to rejoin the rotation Saturday and Carlos Martinez can start in Wacha's place on Sunday.

Ernesto Frieri served up a walkoff grand slam to Nick Swisher on Thursday afternoon in Cleveland.
Fantasy Source Spin: Anaheim led 3-1 heading into the bottom of the 10th inning and Cam Bedrosian was brought in for the save. But manager Mike Scoiscia turned back to Frieri after Bedrosian loaded the bases on two walks and a double. That's when Swisher went deep to win it. The Angels' bullpen is a mess right now.

Red Sox recalled INF Garin Cecchini from Triple-A Pawtucket.
Fantasy Source Spin: This confirms a report from Chris Cotillo of MLB Daily Dish. Cecchini, who had a one-day stint with the big club earlier this month, was batting .263/.344/.329 with two home runs and 24 RBI over 62 games in Triple-A this year. He figures to function in a utility role.

Casa Cool Beans Review
American expats Lance and David opened Casa Cool Beans in 2010, determined to raise the bar for accommodations in Rio, and their guests' raves about the attentive service, chilled-out atmosphere, and gorgeous decor testify to the high level of success. There's not a leaf out of place or a speck of dirt to be seen, and Lance, David, and Sergio, the manager, go out of their way to provide tips and touring advice. The converted colonial mansion, painted a resplendent purple, is set over three floors separated by leafy outdoor spaces complete with sundecks. The rooms are tastefully appointed and decorated with artworks (many of them available for sale) by gifted local artists. The pool has views over the scenic, bohemian Santa Teresa neighborhood, where many of the artists live. The lavish alfresco breakfasts are a high point of a stay here.

I am currently involved in capacity building for african women scientists to fast track their careers so that their voices can be heard in management decision making levels.
The african women contributes to approx 80% of food production in sub saharan africa but very few are in positions where they can influence policy, technology. This needs to change if we are going to change the situation of poverty and hunger in Africa.
I am proud to be involved in this venture because we can already see what our program is doing for young women scientists whose confidence levels are increasing and therefore they are making their voices heard and are readily taking leadership positions in their institutions and the community.

The Daily Scope
You might feel that those big-picture changes that you've been trying to make are getting bogged down by the minutiae of everyday life. Fear not. You just need to focus on the ultimate goal today and not worry about every little step along the way. Maybe this is the time to try that wacky idea you've had in the back of your mind. No matter what, keep your spirits up. This will all work out.
Week of May 20–May 26
This is one of the best weeks of the year for making positive changes. After a winter and early spring stamped by stellar turbulence, we arrive now at a turning point. On Monday, the Sun moves into the star sign of the twins—Gemini—joining Venus (the planet of love) and Mercury (the planet of the mind). Because of the stellar emphasis in this lighthearted sign, the week will bring about a newfound sense of energy and enthusiasm. Playful Gemini is the sign of mental brilliance, whose ruler, Mercury, is now in residence, making this an especially auspicious time for dynamic conversation and graceful social encounters.
Saturday will mark the culmination of the recent eclipse cycle, as the Full Moon coincides with the third and final eclipse. The lunar eclipse will amplify the Full Moon's primordial powers, promoting endings and beginnings and bringing hidden things to light. Because the Moon is full in the philosophical sign of Sagittarius — the opposite of the Gemini Sun — there will be an opportunity to find balance between that which is fleeting and of the moment and that which is enduring and timeless.
The lunar eclipse will involve Neptune (the planet of spirituality), so some of the energies at play this week will be elusive and difficult to fathom. But if we keep our feet on the ground and strive for clarity, we will reach a decisive moment when prior problems are easily resolved and perplexing issues are transformed. We can expect closure, preparing us for the light of a bright new day.

Okay, so I think that if everything breaks right, we could potentially start this week.
Here are the important needs as listed in the last FanPost.
- A title for the podcast.
- Determine the frequency of the podcast (daily, weekly, biweekly, monthly, etc.).
- The number of podcast participants.
- The amount of segments on the podcast (upcoming match ups, stats talk, commentariat questions, etc.).
- How long each podcast will run (45 minutes, 1 hour, 1.5 hours, etc.).
- What hosting software/program to use (Google+, other podcasting software).
- We do need to brainstorm ideas for a title.
- We settled on 5 Podcasters. One Mod, 3 Featured Podcasters, and One Guest Podcaster or site writer.
- We don't have segments yet, but I think that's something that will make itself clear as we actually make Podcasts.
- I think an hour is an appropriate length
- And I think we settled on Skype because certain people have a lot of knowledge in that area.
Here's the list of people that responded and the roles they volunteered for, though many volunteered for multiple roles.
Mod:D-Train, f22bandit, a01, Cry
Featured podcaster: rocs, Dr. Alien, jmano, f22bandit, BSC, Shane, Aslan, Cry, pd, a01
Guest Podcaster: D-Train, ATLBrave, f22bandit, BSC, Shane, Aslan, Cry, pd, a01, DoT, DiamondLights
Editor: ATLbrave, Dr. Alien
We can have some more discussion about roles but I believe we have enough volunteers for all of the positions that we can rotate people in and out every week.
Now we just need to pick a day and time that makes it acceptable to everyone, since we're dealing with a lot of different factors. I think the best day to do it is Thursday, so we can put it out on Friday. I have a night class Thursday, so I'm unavailable from 7:30-10:15 EST that day, but we could do it before. Or we could just do them on Mondays, in which case we would probably have to wait a week before starting.
Just wanted to put this out there so the idea doesn't die. I think it's a good idea and is certainly doable. Let's get the necessary discussion hashed out in the comments.

Your move, Linsday Lohan.
Amanda Bynes was arrested after the doorman spotted the singer smoking weed in the building's lobby and "behaving erratically."
By the time police arrived to the scene, Bynes, had returned to her apartment on the 36th floor, where police observed her tossing a bong out of the window (the poor bong).
TMZ reported that Amanda went "ballistic" when she found out she was under arrest, and she shouted "Don't you know who I am?" (seriously, who give a fuck?) to the police as they took her into custody. The arresting officers noted in their report a "heavy" smell of marijuana and smoke inside the apartment. Watch video of Amanda in handcuffs below.
Bynes was booked on charges of criminal marijuana possession, reckless endangerment and tampering with evidence (for the bong toss), but not before being briefly taken to a hospital for psychiatric evaluation. She's expected to spend the night in a Midtown police station and will appear in court Friday morning.
NBCNewYork reports Bynes was taken to Roosevelt Hospital to undergo a psychiatric evaluation, then to a Midtown police station to be processed. She was expected to spend the night in Manhattan central booking and appear in court today.
Much of the star's social media activity on Twitter has given rise to speculation she may be mentally ill or abusing drugs. So let us hope this is the wakeup call Amanda needs and she finally gets some help.

Now available in trade paper, Born to Win identifies the qualities of firstborns . . . and there's a catch.

Dr. Kevin Leman reveals why.
He helps firstborns understand their natural advantages--while becoming aware of their weaknesses and learning how to sidestep them--for the highest level of personal success at home, at school, at work, and in relationships. And he helps those who live or work with firstborns to understand them better. This fun, informative, and practical book will keep readers engaged and provide many "aha!" moments.

Lil Za may have just benefited in a BIG way from Justin Bieber's legal woes ... because we've learned his felony vandalism charge for breaking a jail phone will be REDUCED to a misdemeanor.
Za was busted during the search of Bieber's home in January after cops found MDMA (Ecstasy) and Oxycodone. He was taken to jail where he flew into a rage and broke the jail phone. For that, he was charged with FELONY vandalism.
Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... the L.A. County D.A. has agreed to reduce the charge to a misdemeanor because they say the phone was not even worth $400 -- and under the law ... vandalizing property worth less than $400 is a misdemeanor.
But here's what's interesting ... TMZ broke the story, we're told the D.A. will not charge Justin Bieber with felony vandalism for the egg throwing incident, and the damage there approached $20K. It would be pretty difficult to reconcile charging Bieber with a misdemeanor and Za with a felony.
As for Za's drug charge ... we're told the likely disposition will be a drug diversion program, where Za would plead guilty to felony drug possession, but after completing a drug ed course and keeping his nose clean for a year ... the charge would be erased from his record.
So hanger on dorks get breaks now too? Lame...
Who IS this guy?!
Little known fact. Lil Za's first name is Pete. Pete Za.
Tough guy breaks a phone? What a bad ass! if he spent 5 minutes in a Level Four California prison, he'd wish he died, which the inmates would gladly help him with. These punks have no clue what the real world is like.
Lil Za = Lil Penus
No justice. Not surprised
No justice.a slap on the wrist
This is why I can't wait for this little fcuker and all of his minions to fall and fall big and fall ugly. Why are these little bas.tards above the law? That little prlck is a god**** foreigner. I can't help but wish ill on him because apparently he lives a very charmed life. Little fcuker.
We all know the D.A. took a huge bribe if it was one of us it would be a felony and jail time.
I'm having a lil get together at biebers old crib.. Sizzurp is all on me , just bring the pills folk since patties mallet isn't supplying them to me anymore....
The media needs to stop making heros out of these singers and movie stars that OD. They died because they y chose drugs over life should be the message to their fans. Bieber is on the fast track of to OD.
I've only heard of this guy in connection to Bieber. What does he do? Is he a rapper? Actor?
Bottom Feeder..
There just a bunch of kids

4 Bedrooms, Sleeps 9, sauna, fireplace, beach, winter sports option

Mega Hollywood power spot masquerading as a cutesy English cottage, complete with shabby chic chintz-heavy décor, white picket fence, and rose trellises. Don't be fooled though–for all its country kitsch demeanor, this is the number one spot in town for the glammest of the celeb set to see and be seen. If you don't believe us, ask the phalanx of paparazzi camped outside.
Celebs galore, plus the requisite packs of hangers-on, curious tourists, and wannabes.
People come to The Ivy for the scene, not the food–so make sure you're dressed to impress without losing coolness points by trying too hard. We'd go with a very trendy-label skirt or pair of jeans, a hip top, and cool flats or sandals.
The girls for an afternoon of star-spotting and mingling with the "in" crowd.
Being in the thick of the Hollywood scene–nowhere beats The Ivy for sightings of celebs in their natural habitat.
The cuisine is uninspiring and made even more so by the LA prices.
If possible, try to nab a seat on the terrace–it's where the starlets du jour hold court. Located right in the "fun" section of Robertson, combine a stop here with a shopping trip.

This!! Especially with Peter gone, there should be some new Kristian pictures. Maybe they took some, but are waiting to release them until her "mystery person" story starts? (probably just wishful thinking.)
