I purchased a Safety 1st baby monitor with two of the parent units in May of 2014. We have been using it sparingly within the last three months or so and one of the parent units stopped working last night. I figured it needed new batteries so I removed the back panel and replaced the batteries with fresh ones. After doing this it still is not working. I opened the back again to double check I had them in correct and they were. I did try three more new batteries just to be sure, but nothing is working. I am extremely discouraged. Any help would be appreciated.

ST. LOUIS — The Phillies' solution to having three catchers and four outfielders was to recall light-hitting utility infielder Michael Martinez before Wednesday's game.
Catcher Humberto Quintero was designated for assignment to make room. This is Martinez's third stint with the Phillies in 2013. He can play center field, if needed.
Martinez's promotion will allow the Phillies to use Delmon Young as designated hitter this weekend in Detroit. Beyond that, Martinez does not offer much. He is a career .186 hitter with a .506 OPS. He has twice been outrighted off the 40-man roster in the last calendar year.
His .506 OPS is the fifth-worst all-time for a Phillies position player with at least 350 career plate appearances.

McGinn has called for Saints to show discipline
Bert Mitchell, Sports Writer / / Sport
ST MIRREN midfield starlet John McGinn today warned the Buddies they can't afford to let their focus in the cups derail their league push.
The Paisley men produced heroics at Hampden in the Scottish Communities League Cup semi-final to edge Celtic out in a five-goal thriller and book a final place against Hearts next month.
They also face a rematch with Neil Lennon's men on Saturday, this time in the quarter-finals of the William Hill Scottish Cup quarter-final.
But Saints have now failed to find the mark in 298 minutes of SPL action. Their last goal came in the 2-1 home success over Inverness on January 30.
With tomorrow's visit of a Hearts side in freefall and just one point above them looming, the teenager has pinned hopes of a league revival on a victory over the side they'll face at the National Stadium next month.
McGinn said: "The Hearts game is massive and what we have to do is just concentrate on the next game and not let the cup ties distract us. The losses in the league have been disappointing. Hearts are above us in the league so we have a great chance to climb above them.
"Although we are nine points off the top six, we have a game in hand.
"So it is not beyond us to get back in there if we can string some positive results together.

"We have a cup final coming up, though, and everyone is desperate to play in that. The only way to guarantee that is to make sure that you are doing it in the SPL.
"We have home advantage and it is vital that we make the most of that. We have already beaten Hearts on their first visit to St Mirren Park earlier in the season, so we know we are more than capable of taking three points tomorrow."
The 18-year-old is of course the youngest grandson of Jack McGinn, the former chairman of Celtic in the 1980s and 90s, who went on to become president of the SFA.
Ironically, the young midfield ace made his St Mirren debut in a 5-0 home defeat by Celtic back in October, but played a starring role in Saints' success over the Hoops in the League Cup semi-final.
He said: "It's been a fantastic season for me so far. To have made my debut against Celtic and then play in the St Mirren side that beat them in the League Cup semi-final was amazing, I will never forget it.
"We have them on Saturday coming here in the Scottish Cup and they will be looking for revenge, but all our focus has to be on Hearts right now."
McGinn has also thanked Buddies skipper Jim Goodwin, former Scotland ace Gary Teale and strike talisman Steven Thompson for their role in helping him develop on the field.
He said: "I am really lucky that we have guys like Jim, Gary and Stevie who have so much experience.
"We have a great team spirit at the club and that will be key in helping us get the result we need tomorrow.
"The SPL is so tight and there is very little between the teams. It all comes down to who wants it most. Against Hearts we have to make sure that is us."

excellant product, wish the taste was better, but I'm geting use to it. I'd like to use something beside water, maybe like almond milk.
i think it's very high quality

but i have to get used to this product which tastes naturally but really "new" for me. Finally i prefer the vanilla tastes of other brands, but if you only look for quality you can choose this.

The coolest part is the green slimy color it turns after you blend it. Not the greatest tasting thing, but kind of mixes well.

The taste of this is horrible! I can eat pretty much any health food, I usually buy raw meal, although initially found that hard to swallow, I later appreciate it's natural flavour. BUT this, this is just something else. I add honey, I add yogurt, I add anything that would make a smoothy taste good, but I cannot mute the flavour of this product, a few times I almost puked. I am so glad that I got this small one, or else I don't know what to do with it.
amazing product

I'm seriously thinking Sagen for green. That guy has an incredible kick & he's a better climber than Cav. Having said that, I'd still like cav to win.
I love hearing about cyclists taking the plunge into racing. I still remember my first time and being a basket of nerves on the start line. Glad you're giving it a shot. Let us know how it went.
Some good ones listed. NPR has a good range of quality podcasts.
I like the sound of Here's The Thing. Going to get that one in the rotation.
I'm always looking for some new ones out there. I currently listen to:
Adam Carolla
This American Life
So what are you favorites?
Tonight I changed the sensor battery and that did the trick. It's funny, I simply didn't consider the battery since cadence was working fine. Lesson learned.
Thx for the feedback!
So I must align the magnet with the sensor when I'm done with my workout? I've never done that before.
I've been having issues with my speed not picking up over the last few days. I've done a hard reset as well as adjusting the sensor itself & the magnet.
I didn't think it could be the battery...
I did 3 hours today with the last hour in snow showers. Love the PNW this time of year!
Why would it be bad form? Pro sports, whether it's baseball, football or cycling sell clothing for fans to wear. Unless you're on a sponsored club team, wear what you like.
That makes total sense now that I think about it.
What's the distance that you can view the live image on the phone from the camera?
I'm looking to get the contour hd and use my garmin 500 data to upload into dashware. I notice that you can view a map in dashware with your position relevent to the video that you're shooting. ...
You & Martin rode well this weekend. I like your Contour camera setup too.
I'm looking to buy my first TT helmet, trouble is, none of my LBS have any for me to try. Can anyone give me some recommendations when looking on-line & ones that I should stay away from?
I would love to see an Iphone version.
I'm the same sizing, 5'10" & 33. I've ridden a 56 for years and couldn't imagine riding a 54. It's funny cos I'm seriously thinking of switching to an SL3 myself and recently test rode the 2011...
I did my first STP last year with 8 other friends and did it under 12 hours ride time. This year I wanted to see how fast I could do it & was pleasently surprised with 9:53 ride time. The two...
I did STP for the first time this year and like others have said, tailwind for the first half, pushed us along quite well then after Centralia (second half) head wind but not too strong. I've heard...
I'm down in LA this week and they just aired it on KTLA. Glad you're ok and got some air play.
I think Contador will break some legs on the first mountain top finish. His frustration must be approaching boiling point with all the media hype that's going on.
Welcome back Suzie. Actually you wear the big hair look well.
Here is some additional reading:
Go to page 30 for English
A Schleck
He was really getting in the mix with the sprints at the Giro. I think he had one or two 2nd's. I hope he does well but it will be tough for him.
Brings back memories, of course back then we didn't train with helmets/hairnets either...at least in England.

Anytime I draw Phoenix, I really just want to turn her into a glowing, raging fireball with eyes and a mouth and limbs. But we kept it traditional with this one. I'm very happy with how she came out, though I forgot her hip sash - oops. Laid into her hair a bit cause a boy's gotta have some fun right? Lemmeknowututhink.
I love her. I love this!
Love the pose and the emotion in her face

Sash or no sash she's beautiful!

Arthur Szyk: beauty in fairy tale... and Stalin
Nowadays, being up on the news can actually make us stupider (more stupid, damn!), but when cartoonist Arthur Szyk was sketching his dense, fantastically detailed news caricatures, politics were still in need of explication – and all the more better if it was beautiful to boot. How else can one explain why one of the most whimsical artists of the 1930s and '40s became best known for his sketches of Hitler and Stalin playing poker?
Szyk's jewel box of an exhibition is on view through March 2011 at that jewel box of a museum, the Legion of Honor. How lovely is the Legion of Honor? Though its offerings are often obscured by its big box fine art peers like the de Young and the SFMOMA, the Legion itself is a French neo-classic temple compared to the blatant modernism of its more centrally-located brethren. Where else, for pete's sake, can one find a meticulously transposed Louis-whenever parlor room adjacent to a hall full of Rodin sculptures?
A multi-media art experience, I reflected, passing under a mudejar ceiling from late 15th century Torrijos region of Spain, on my way to the museum's corner hideaway gallery no. 1 that housed Szyk. Who was a firecracker, really. Born to a Jewish Polish family, Szyk was one of the first political caricaturist to sketch out against the Führer. His Haggadah series (1932-1938) correlated Hitler's rise with the traditional story of the Israelites' biblical flight from Egypt.
Though his original message was somewhat watered down by the drawings' group publication in 1940 (the publishers erased all the swastikas from the drawings – que what?), it was still considered one of the most beautiful works of the time. Szyk was also outspoken about his adopted country's lack of action in the face of evil – the US fell under the wrath of his pencil for its sluggish rise to action during World War II.
The man's drawings are pure, extravagant beauts. The drowsy, yet watchful eyes of the Legion security guards (legion guards! Drama!) prevented me from nosing in quite as close as I wanted to them – the sentries probably get sick of wiping off the glass – but even so. Even so, there were his illustrations for a deck of playing cards, his whip-smart rendering of a poker game between Hitler and Stalin -- with the Angel of Death looking on intently. His sumptuous creations for the 1955 edition of Arabian Nights Entertainment. His faces are so detailed that they bely the fact that they are portraying fictional characters. His details are so extraordinary its no wonder that a lot of adult children will get a sense of time travel vertigo dipping into his stash of kid's book illustrations. The flowers with faces Szyk brought into being for the 1945 edition of Andersen's Fairy Tales -- well Walt, you have some explaining to do about Alice's rose garden buds.
You should be witness to all this, of course. While you're there, check out the Legion's marquee showing of Japanese and Californian and French-via-Japan prints in the basement (Japanesque, through Jan. 9). And the Legion cafe, of course, which is always crammed full of old people and is an excellent place to enjoy a cup of coffee or esoteric Asian soda pop.

Monday is one of those days where there will be a lot of mixing and matching. There isn't a lot of BVP data to go off of in many of the matchups, and a few teams are traveling so we don't have a full slate of games to review anyway. Here's Ray Flowers' take on the action that you can look forward to Monday, August 18th.
* NOTE: Players are listed in alphabetical order for the sake of making them easily sortable/findable. The matchups are also generated based on Batter vs. Pitcher data. Just because a player is not listed does not mean that he is a bad or good play. The players listed below are mentioned merely because of the BVP data for the matchup.
DISH DIAMONDS – The Best Hitting Matchups of the Day
Nelson Cruz is batting .455 in 11 at-bats against Chris Sale (he also has a homer). Cruz also has a .950+ OPS against lefties this season. Delmon Young has a homer and .333 average versus Sale though he's hit much better against righties this year than lefties (he has a .637 OPS against lefties).
Matt Holliday has a .393-1-6 line over 28 at-bats against Mike Leake.
Joe Mauer is remembering that he is a star with the bat in his hands. He's also lit up Jason Vargas over the years with 10 hits in 24 at-bats. That's a cool .417 batting average to go along with six RBIs. Chris Parmalee has six hits in 13 at-bats (.462) while Eduardo Nunez has gone 5-for-15.
"Fearless Chihuahua Takes On Great Dane In Most Endearing Attack Of All Time."
Dustin Pedroia has nine hits in 21 at-bats, including a homer and six RBIs, against C.J. Wilson. Make sure Pedroia is active as he's dealing with an illness. Yoenis Cespedes has six hits in 15 at-bats (.400).
DISH DISASTERS – Worst Hitting Matchups of the Day
Dustin Ackley has hit .192 with six strikeouts in 26 at-bats when, of all people, Jerome Williams is on the hill. Kyle Seager isn't much better at .208 with a homer in 24 at-bats.
Oh Jay Bruce. Justin Masterson has had his number holding him to a .143 batting average over 14 at-bats. At least he only has one strikeout. Ramon Santiago has two hits in 18 at-bats (.111).
Matt Carpenter is a very solid offensive performer who is rendered nearly impotent when Mike Leake is on the bump. Over 17 plate appearances Matt has a .410 OPS. John Jay has been hot of late but he's only hit .250 with a .599 OPS over 26 plate appearances.
Anyone taken a picture like this at a wedding before?
Mike Napoli has pretty much always struggled against C.J. Wilson. In 29 at-bats he's hit .207 with 10 strikeouts. David Ortiz is even worse than that. He's hit .125 with five strikeouts in 16 at-bats.
Kurt Suzuki has had a nice season but you're not likely to see that continue Monday against Jason Vargas. In 32 career at-bats he's not only driven in just one run but he's also hit .188. Trevor Plouffe is even worse with a .182 mark over 22 at-bats.
Travis Snider, suddenly hot, has one hit in his 10 at-bats against Ervin Santana.

Batter Versus Pitcher
Daily Projections – For every single day of the season.
Kyle Hendricks vs. Bartolo Colon in New York.
Hendricks has made six starts and every one has been a quality start. In fact, Kyle has allowed a total of nine runs (eight earned) in his six starts as he's gone 4-1 with a 1.73 ERA and 1.01 WHIP. Gotta start him. Colon allowed two runs over seven innings the last time he took on the Cubs, and he's allowed exactly one run in three of his last four outings. He also doesn't beat himself. The last time he walked two batters in an outing was on July 5th, eight starts ago.
Vidal Nuno vs. Jordan Zimmermann in Washington.
Nuno has a 4.17 ERA on the road this season. Not bad, but nothing to excite. He last picked up a win on June 27th. He's also failed to work six innings six times in his last nine outings. Zimmermann is a must start every time for this scribe, even though he allowed five runs in 5.1 innings to the D'backs on May 12th. Over his last four starts he's allowed a total of five runs while walking one batter.
Roenis Elias vs. Jerome Williams in Philadelphia.
Elias is 5-4 with a 3.73 ERA on the road. He's also allowed just five earned runs over his four outings. He's actually in a nice groove. The Phils also don't hit very well against lefties with a .694 OPS on the year (22nd in baseball). Williams has a 6.42 ERA and 1.62 WHIP. How desperate are you?
Did you see that Clayton Kershaw is gonna try and take on Little League Star Mo'Ne Davis?
Ervin Santana vs. Vance Worley in Pittsburgh.
Santana has 12 wins, a 3.66 ERA and a 1.25 WHIP. Solid. He has a 3-4 record with a 3.88 ERA on the road. He's no more than a moderate start given that the Pirates have the 5th best OPS in baseball against righties. Worley is hard not to trust given his 2.51 ERA and 1.13 WHIP. However, the Braves have a .349/.429/.651 slash line against him over 47 plate appearances, and he is coming off his worst outing of the season (5 R, 3 ER in 5.1 IP). He's also struck out just 5.69 batters per nine innings.
C.J. Wilson vs. Anthony Ranaudo in Boston.
Ranaudo is starting in place of Brandon Workman. Anthony has made two starts with a 4.50 ERA, 1.42 WHIP and three strikeouts. He's been much better in the minors but the Angels are surging and can hit. Wilson looked better in his last outing, but he's been so hit, well mostly miss, for a while now that he's hard to trust even if he appears to finally be healthy. AL-only leagues maybe, but mixed leagues or in a daily game – too hard to trust for me.
They say they have nine lives...
Bud Norris vs. Chris Sale in Chicago.
Norris hasn't faced the Sox this year. His last two starts he's only worked 5.0 and 5.1 innings and he's failed to go 5.2 in three of his last four. He's also the sad owner of a 4.55 ERA on the road. Sale always starts. Dude is money. He's 7-2 at home with a 2.30 ERA and 0.82 WHIP. He's also got 99 punchouts with only 12 walks in 78.1 innings.
Jason Vargas vs. Trevor May in Minnesota
Vargas has allowed two runs in two starts and he's gone three without issuing a walk. He also owns a 2.13 ERA and 1.14 WHIP on the road this season. May has oodles of talent, and that's a K per inning arm there. He's also walked nine batters in two starts while completing 4.1 innings. Awful.
Mike Leake vs. Justin Masterson in St. Louis.
Leake is just 5-5 on the road this season but he still has a 3.56 ERA and 1.29 WHIP. He's allowed two or fewer runs in three of his last four starts but he has walked four batters in two of his last three. A solid start given that the Cardinals are 21st in OPS against righties. Masterson looked sharp in his last outing with seven shutout innings, but he's did allow five earned runs in each of his previous three starts – in just 10 innings might you – and he's sporting a 5.58 ERA and 1.64 WHIP on the season.
Make sure you tune in to the Drive at 7 PM EDT, Monday through Friday on SiriusXM Fantasy Sports Radio (Sirius210, XM87), to hear Ray Flowers pontificate about the world of sports.

About Poverty
Around the world, women tend to be in poverty at greater rates than men. The United Nations reported in 1997 that 70 percent of 1.3 billion people in poverty worldwide are women, while American Community Survey data from 2013 tells us that 55.6 percent of the 45.3 million people living in poverty in the United States are women and girls. Women's higher likelihood of living in poverty exists within every major racial and ethnic group within the U.S. Among people in poverty, 15.8 percent are young women of ages 18 to 34, compared to 11.8 percent of men in that age range. Older women are also much more likely than older men to live in poverty. IWPR has served as a resource on women's poverty issues since its founding in 1987.

Single-Parent Families: Economic Survival and Welfare Reform
Can single parents on welfare find and keep jobs that enable them to support themselves and their families? Or will they need other sources of income in order to live above the poverty line? The IWPR research described here suggests that many single parents who have received welfare or other government assistance will be unable to earn enough to escape poverty unless they have other sources of income. Studying all families below 200 percent of the poverty level, IWPR researchers compared single-parent families (both those headed by mothers and those headed by fathers) with two-parent families to identify differences in their earnings, use of public benefits, and availability of other income sources.
IWPR Welfare Reform Network News
With the states facing a July 1, 1997, deadline to submit their welfare plans to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, many state officials are considering how they will meet the challenges of moving large numbers of welfare recipients into the work force. This newsletter describes one central component of state efforts to move welfare recipients into the workforce: workfare. Workfare is one of several policy issues relation to the low-wage labor market and job creation/ availability issues under the new welfare law. In this newsletter, we describe some features of workfare programs and present research findings that suggest some implications workfare may have for the low-wage labor market and the well-being of welfare recipients.

Welfare is Not for Women: Toward a Model of Advocacy to Meet the Needs of Women in Poverty
The other America described two decades ago by Michael Harrington is a changing neighborhood: men are moving out, while women, many with children, are moving in. As a result, the War on Poverty that grew out of the concern aroused by Harrington and others was built on images and assumptions about the poor that have become increasingly invalid. The fundamental thesis of the paper is that the trend towards the "feminization of poverty" has profoundly altered the needs, legal and otherwise of today's poor, as well as the nature of advocacy required to meet those needs.
IWPR Welfare Reform Network News
In the summer of 1995, it was unclear what the final form of the welfare bill would be, and IWPR had heard a great deal of uncertainty from researchers and advocates in the field about the potential effects of welfare reform on poor families. The passage of Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) on August 22, 1996 has created new uncertainties about what the states and recipients can and will do under block grants, such as: the ability of the low wage labor market to absorb former recipients of Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC), the impact on groups which are no longer eligible for benefits under TANF, the ability of serivce providers to meet the increasing needs of poor families, the link between welfare recipiency and domestic violence and homelessness, and the role of advocacy groups in the policy debate as the structure of welfare continues to change. Many have voiced their concern over how these changes are going to be evaluated.

Food Stamps and AFDC: A Double Life-Line for Low-income Working Single Mothers

Are Mommies Dropping Out of the Labor Force? No!
Despite a spate of recent news articles reporting a slow down and even reversal of the long-term growth in women's labor force participation-- articles that assume the reversal is led by mothers anxious to stay at home with their children-- the data show that most mothers are continuing to increase their participation in the labor force, even during the current recession. More women are working than ever before. Married mothers and mothers of very young children have increased their labor force participation most.

Food Stamp Participation and the Economic Well Being of Single Mothers
In new research entitled "Food Stamps and AFDC: A Double Life-Line for Low-Income Single Working Mothers," the Institute for Women's Policy Research shows that eligible families of single working mothers are more likely to participate in the Food Stamp Program during the months in which they receive Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC). The study also shows that major losses in family purchasing power occur when they do not receive food stamp benefits but are eligible to do so.

Unemployment Insurance: Barriers to Access for Women and Part-Time Workers
Children and Families in the District of Columbia: Child Care Needs
Washington, D.C. is a city that is in transition. The District of Columbia's population has been declining for several decades. The diversity of the population, e.g., race/ ehnicity, living arrangements, geography has increased, however. The District's child population is a big part of the change. Whole the under age 18 population decreased, the number of births to D.C. residents increased. Child care in the nation's capital, like the nation in general, is essential. the increased labor force participation of mothers, increased poverty rates, and the increasing evidence of positive effects of preschool on poor children, has made understanding the demographics of children and their families very necessary.
Welfare to Work: The Job Opportunities of AFDC Recipients
In a frenzy to move welfare recipients off the roles through budget cuts, block grants, time limits, cries to "end welfare as we know it," and attempts to exclude children and young mothers from coverage, little attention has been paid to what works to help current AFDC recipients find work and earn wages that will help them escape poverty. The Institute for Women's Policy Research (IWPR) has conducted research and analysis on the current survival strategies of AFDC recipients. IWPR's most recent phase of this study, welfare That Works: The Working Lives of AFDC Recipients, examines the factors that increase the likelihood that single mothers receiving AFDC engage in paid employment, the kinds of jobs they obtain, and the factors that improve their prospects for obtaining better jobs (and higher incomes). IWPR's research suggests that if employment opportunities are not reformed along with welfare, efforts to reduce the rolls will likely result in increased poverty for many single mothers and their children and increased frustration for tax payers who will see yet another "reform" to go awry.
Welfare That Works: The Working Lives of AFDC Recipients
In the latest campaign to move recipients of Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC) off the welfare rolls through time-limiting benefits and ending entitlements, little attention has been paid to what will work to increase the likelihood that AFDC recipients can find work and earn wages above the barest minimum. In Welfare that Works: The Working Lives of AFDC Recipients, IWPR answers the question of "what works" by examining the current survival strategies of AFDC recipients. IWPR's study focuses on the jobs many women who receive welfare already hold. The study analyzes the factors that increase the likelihood that single mothers receiving AFDC also engage in paid employment, the kinds of jobs that they obtain, and their ability to escape poverty through a combination of work and welfare receipt.

Argues for the need to change the traditional social welfare system to allow for demographic changes, family diversity, and women's need for income replacement across the life cycle.

Micro-Enterprise Catalysts and Barriers: Voices of Low-Income and Poor Women
Supporters of micro-enterprise argue that self-employment is a strategy that can improve the economic well being of low-income families and promote economic development in poverty-stricken urban communities. IWPR's study "Micro-Enterprise and Women" investigates self-employment and micro-enterprise as a strategy to enhance the income package of women receiving Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC) and other low-income women. The development of micro-enterprise ventures among low-income women could contribute to the economic well-being of their families, provided that this activity is viewed as part of an income package rather than as the sole source of family support. Our study links IWPR's previous work on income packaging with our analysis of self employment.

Originally posted on Eagles Addict | Last updated 11/23/12
Ever since Michael Vick went down with his concussion, I've been pounding the drum that Nick Foles should remain the Eagles' starting QB for the rest of the season, regardless of how he or the team performs. I even went so far as to say that Andy Reid would be selfish not do so. Before all the Vick lovers come crying, this is not about him. My reasoning for starting Foles is purely what I believe to be in the best interest for the future of this franchise. Simply put, we need to see if he is going to be our quarterback going forward. Whether or not you're a Vick supporter, there is a legitimate chance that he will not return to the Eagles next season. The fact that there should be a new coaching staff in place, along with a huge amount of money owed to Vick, combine to make it likely that he will not, in fact, be back. That's why this isn't about Vick. It's about the team and the future direction it will go. An incoming coach will need to have as much game tape as possible on F...

Some Lehman Brothers Alums Doing Demonstrably Better Than Others
Joe Gregory has been forced to put his Long Island-chic manse on the market. Dick Fuld's been pounding the pavement for months with nothing to show for it. Bella is still dead. Not a lot to celebrate and yet some people have managed to do pretty okay for themselves despite having spent time at 745 7th Avenue. Erin Callan, as may have heard, is happily married to firefighter Anthony Montella and living in a $3.9 million house in the Hamptons and Evelyn Stevens, who actually worked at another firm before leaving Wall Street but should know that if you so much as set foot in the lobby of the building, you'll be branded a Lehman Brother or Sister for life, just competed in her first Olympics and no longer counts herself among financial services employees who spend their days fantasizing about a life that doesn't so closely resemble hell.
The 5-foot-5 (1.7-meter) Stevens said she's using savings from banking bonuses to "cushion" the blow of lower earnings. She began her career as an investment-banking analyst at Lehman Brothers Inc., leaving in 2007 before the bank collapsed. "I was able to save a lot of my bonuses," Stevens said. "I don't have to survive on a $10,000 or $8,000 purse from cycling. If I hadn't been in investment banking, I wouldn't have been able to be at the Olympics." She was 24th in yesterday's Olympic women's road race, finishing among a group including teammate Shelley Olds that was 27 seconds behind gold-medal winner Marianne Voss of the Netherlands. There were 66 riders at the start.
While there's a "big discrepancy" from what she once earned, Stevens said her quality of life has improved. After leaving behind a 90-hour working week in banking, she lives in Girona, Spain during the European racing season and Boulder, Colorado. "In New York there's pressure, and it's kind of negative, everyone was stressed," Stevens, dressed in U.S. team tracksuit and lycra three-quarter length pants at the London Olympic Park, said July 27. "I don't get so much money now but my quality of living has gone up."

Undergraduate Business Major Has "A Very Simple Ultimatum, Actually" For Fellow Students
Have you ever been in a position where you needed to compel a group of your peers to do something they clearly have no interest in participating in? Where every time you sat down to craft an email, it became a back and forth between "playing it cool" and the desperation that all people reach when charged with the task of rallying people to attend, for instance, an event like the business versus engineering student Olympics? Where the internal monologue (and words that you end up typing on the page) are something like "You better fucking come to this thing…or don't I couldn't care less…no wait I was kidding…COME, YOU FUCKING FUCKS!…I mean, whatever…do what you want…I hate you…I hate you all so much that it's really no sweat off my sack whether you come or not, asshole shits. WHO CARES? …but I'd just like to note that if you're not there so help me GOD you'll be sorry, not that it matters to me…". Where by the end of any such gig you've basically lost the patina of cool no matter what, so there's no real use in trying? Then you can related to one undergraduate business major who was pushed to that "end my rope" mode earlier today.

Subject: A quick note about our next bar crawl and the BBA v Engineering Olympics
As you probably don't know because you stick my impact messages go straight to your trash folder, we are currently engaged in a week long competition against the engineers. However, there has been a very poor turnout from the Senior Class up to this point – especially in the athletic events.
I don't understand your apathy nor do I care to but I will say this: THERE WILL NOT BE ANOTHER BAR CRAWL IF WE LOSE THE OLYMPICS.
Furthermore, If we were to lose this competition because people just didn't show up I would just assume that there is a serious lack of interest in our events and go ahead and shut down Senior Night as well. For those of you who don't know, Senior Night is where we completely rent out a club and allow each senior a +1. It's something like a boozy college prom.
It's a very simple ultimatum actually. If you don't help me destroy the engineers, I will not help you get wasted with your fellow BBA's. It makes no difference to me because honestly i don't even remember the last bar crawl.
Eat at Pizza House before 4am and raise some money for a great cause and sign up to play some flag football and ultimate frisbee. There is also an after party at the Blue Lep from 6-8pm on Friday and I promise I'll let you drink out of the trophy cup.

Welcome to WebmasterWorld Guest from 220.127.116.11
Forum Moderators: not2easy
He's been using one semi-regularly for 6 months or so and has been pretty surprised at the return he is getting - particularly 2-3 images that have sold about 500 copies (nice niche, great photos, with little competition - just the way we like it ;) ). Each downloaded image receives a 20% return, each download costs a minimum of $1, so that's at least $300 he earnt in 6 months. Not a bad return for a few photos. Get 100 images doing that well in a year, 200 the next... and that drip, drip, drip will become a sizable income stream. And it seems to me that there are no perceived overheads or maintenance fees.
So my curiosity has got the better of me, I've uploaded a few photos to a couple of sites try to see how the in-site search tools work for the user - they are abstract images with some fairly ambiguous keywords like; obscurity, oblivion, animosity, rebellion, elation... I hope to top the SERPS within the site for a couple of dual keyword matches - not too concerned about actual downloads just yet...
So now to my questions:
I'd be very interested to hear your views.
Photographers Please READ:
If you have an attractive girlfriend, boyfriend, wife, brother, friend - ask them if they'd mind posing for you (be sure to have them sign a model release, it's required).

I have finally started to get this whole Stock Malarkey and to be honest I think I may well keep it up.
I have found that one or two images are doing well - I will never make a fortune, that is already evident but it is paying for my stock - so if nothing else I have rather a decent return that fufills my needs.
Henry0 - your tip about colour was A good one I optimised all 135 images I uploaded with colour comments and by the looks of things it has been a factor in the successful download of a few.
I have very few images with people in them, but I have recently forked out for a D70 so will no doubt be taking more images of people as the telephoto gives me more range.
You MUST have your model sign a release
This is often counterintuitive, meaning, that beautiful travel photo you took wont sell a thing. Think about it from an advertisers position - they want images with room to breath around them, space for their pitch etc.If you have a whitebox at home (ie. an enclosure to control light and provide a static colour background) then you can produce images that have a lot of the qualities advertisers most often look for.
Fiver - this indeed is true - luckily I often use a tight depth of field - offering designers area of out of focus mid contrast to add text. Although I don't have a white box, I often shoot food (I love food photography) against neutrals or whites - these have been downloaded (a whacking 4 times :o)
Clean, crisp images tend to do a lot better.
Isolated background (most of my searches are refined my "isolated")
I suspect that having several clearly defined niches (Elbonia or plumbers or car manufacturing) is the best way to compete with all the other photo sources out there.
Yep - again I feel I am lucky as my business niche means I am constantly taking photos of a very banal subject - forcing me to look for new angles.
The challenge from the buyer's standpoint is going to be how to sort through all the dreck. It's not uncommon to run a search and get thousands of hits - that's a LOT of thumbails to look through, and the perfect photo for your use could well be #2,798. The site operators are going to have to get increasingly creative with their search algorithms and tagging/rating systems from users.
If I were a photographer, I'd practice some SPO (Stock Photo Optimization):
- for all photos, choose many relevant keywords and variations
- if the software allows it, group similar photos so that if a buyer likes one, she can see all of your similar/related shots
- if you are being selective with your uploads or you are creating images specifically for stock photo sale, think about how people will use the photo (ads, websites, magazines, etc.). That may mean empty space around the image (for headlines or text). Think, too, about what kind of images businesses use - people helping people, new ideas, people having difficulties, meetings, medical environments, etc. (Photographers are catching on - search for "idea" and you'll no doubt find a zillion images of light bulbs and other abstract representations.)
Great Points Roger - worth considering as a recent search for Christmas made clear the sheer enormity of their catalogue
It's annoying to be honest, and I hope the trend ends soon. Why can't we see the whole image in focus? OK, blur the background if you like, but let's see the object in full focus.
I love that style - dropping the aperture and opening up the shutter in restrained light situations can make food shots look wonderful.
Is it to do with the amount of choice or am I missing something?
Not so much the range (this is advantageous), but the ability to hone your searches to get a really nice selection of images that fit the brief - I would never be able to find the images I needed using clipart CD's - we have plenty and they are pretty bad for the most part.
I can also see "boutique" sites emerging that specialize in specific types of shots and that do some screening of content; the per image cost might be higher, but still far below traditional prices from outfits like Getty.
As a result of this statement I completed a couple of test runs. Search results were sketchy but there are some good ones in wider fields like sports. When we raised the idea with a couple of customers they were very happy to hear that we might plan to make our photos available online...
You post what image you are looking for, then set a price you are willing to pay for someone to find it. Seems like a pretty novel idea.
This struck me as a great idea - almost like a reverse auction - choose a number of briefs from the site - supply the images you have or take new shots and see if the buyer like them enough to buy.
Something else I am also looking at is the vector market - but I think that is a different thread.

hilarious oh my god.
Derpy is so cute! xD This is a great costume, I love it!
Very cool!
I love it! Really well done, one of my favourite versions I've seen I'm hoping to make my own pony cosplay soon - may I ask how you attached the wig for your tail?
I used a reeeeally big safety pin. That way I can attach it above the bottom of the zipper. And one of my friends gets to play pin the tail on the pony, lol. ^_^
I'm not a fan of the Derp my self, but this costume and the picture it's self is very cute. I had to smile when I saw it.
Aw, well, thank you for the compliment. I know ponies aren't everyone's cup of tea, but I love 'em! Derp. :3
I love ponies. Just not a fan of Derpy Hooves. Those google eyes kind of give me the willies. But everyone else seems to love her and I like that your cosplay picture has Derpy looking through love letters or fan mail. Like I said, It's very sweet.
