The "Africa rising" cliché has generated a lot of views across the world. As the saying goes, to every coin there are always two sides, and Africa's economic growth and boom typify this idiomatic expression.
On the one side, impressive headline growth figures are reported about Africa, with analytical output from the African Competitive Report,1 the World Bank,2 and African Economic Outlook3 reports observing the impressive gross domestic product (GDP) growth, averaging 5.1% since 2000, and doubling the average growth rate of the 1990s. In the period 1999–2010, three of the world's 10 fastest growing economies were in Sub-Saharan Africa. Going forward, GDP growth in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) is expected to rise to 5.5% in 2015, reversing a multidecade pattern of low growth and instability.

With PharmaSync® 5.0, DRS brings to market a 21 CFR Part 11-compliant product e-sampling system developed
not as a software application but rather as a cloud-based service specifically for the browser.
Capable of functioning on or offline, PharmaSync 5.0 cuts through the highly fragmented mobile market as
it works with all of the most widely used devices, e.g., Windows Phone 7, iPhone, Android,
iPad, as well as tablet, laptop and PC.
In addition, by virtually eliminat-ing browser, operating system and hardware dependency, PharmaSync 5.0
makes it easier and more cost effective to integrate a number of front-and back-end sales and marketing functions, e.g., linking sales
representative product sampling and healthcare professional direct sample ordering with CRM.
Off the shelf validation and quick implementation help save time and money. While patented technology helps
companies better manage the PDMA compliance and marketing issues of prescription drug sampling.
• Browser-based e-sampling tool, PharmaSync© 5.0 frees user from OS/browser/ hardware restrictions and dependency
• Runs on most OS platforms including Apple, Android, and Windows
• Device independent/ smartphones, tablets, laptops or desktop PCs
• Patented technology which runs in online or offline mode
• Integrates with any DRS PDMA One Source Application
• Allows for both Sales Representative or HCP ordering through client Web portal
• Secure encrypted signature capture
• No individual sales representative licensing fees
"We were amazed at how easily PharmaSync© was deployed and integrated into our
current system. Kudos to the DRS software developers."

Road To Recovery is an organization of about 600 volunteers who drive Palestinians undergoing medical treatment in Israeli hospitals to and from the crossings into Israel. We mostly drive children with severe ailments for whom medical treatments and procedures are unavailable in the West Bank or Gaza. For these children and their family guardians, logistics and travel costs to Israeli hospitals are prohibitive, particularly for patients requiring regular and recurring treatment.
Our nation-wide information networks for referral and collaboration network includes Palestinian field volunteers, hospitals, and fellow non-profit Israeli and Palestinian organizations (e.g., "Doctors for Human Rights", "Basmat el Amal", "Rabbis for Human Rights").
In addition to transporting Palestinian patients to hospitals all over Israel, we assist those with limited means in the acquisition of specialized outpatient medical equipment. We also organize special rehabilitation and retreat days for Palestinian patients and their families in Israeli recreation destinations.
Thanks to our donors, in 2014 we were able to reimburse our volunteers for most of their gasoline expenses, a fact that enabled more volunteers to join our ranks. As of 2014, our ranks grew to over 600 volunteer drivers. In 2014 alone, our volunteers provided about 8,000 patient-trips (in about 3,650 hospital trips), mostly for children, covering over 329,000 miles.
The demand for our services grew substantially in 2014, especially for trips from Gaza to hospitals in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem. In 2014, we were able to meet nearly 100 percent of trip demand from the Northern West Bank, but less than 80 percent of the demand from the Southern West Bank and Gaza. Despite our on-going efforts to recruit additional volunteers, we are still having difficulties assigning volunteers to transport patients from Gaza. To meet the growing demand for patient transportation from Gaza after the armed conflict in the summer of 2014, we have started operating weekly chartered minibus trips, which we hope to double in frequency upon securing additional donations.
We have received countless thanks and heart-warming gestures of gratitude from the patients and their families. Since the founding of our organization over 7 years ago, we have brought about an estimated 38,000 person-hours of interaction between Palestinians and Israelis, thereby forging special and personal bonds at unparalleled scale in the context of every-day life. The "Road to Recovery" is as much about the recovery of mutual respect, trust, dialog and friendship among Israelis and Palestinians as it is about individual patients' physical recovery.

Here's How to Prepare Your Home for Sale:
1. Disassociate Yourself With Your Home.
2. De-Personalize.
3. De-Clutter!
People collect an amazing quantity of junk. Consider this: if you haven't used it in over a year, you probably don't need it.
4. Rearrange Bedroom Closets and Kitchen Cabinets.
Buyers love to snoop and will open closet and cabinet doors. Think of the message it sends if items fall out! Now imagine what a buyer believes about you if she sees everything organized. It says you probably take good care of the rest of the house as well. This means:
5. Rent a Storage Unit.
Almost every home shows better with less furniture. Remove pieces of furniture that block or hamper paths and walkways and put them in storage. Since your bookcases are now empty, store them. Remove extra leaves from your dining room table to make the room appear larger. Leave just enough furniture in each room to showcase the room's purpose and plenty of room to move around. You don't want buyers scratching their heads and saying, "What is this room used for?"
6. Remove/Replace Favorite Items.
If you want to take window coverings, built-in appliances or fixtures with you, remove them now. If the chandelier in the dining room once belonged to your great grandmother, take it down. If a buyer never sees it, she won't want it. Once you tell a buyer she can't have an item, she will covet it, and it could blow your deal. Pack those items and replace them, if necessary.
8. Make the House Sparkle!
9. Scrutinize.
10. Check Curb Appeal.
If a buyer won't get out of her agent's car because she doesn't like the exterior of your home, you'll never get her inside.
Thank you for visiting today. If this is your first visit, take your time and look around. I have plenty of information and resources available to you. If you are a return visitor, thank you. I would love to hear from you and tell you how I can serve all your real estate needs.

A drunk salary man stumbles by an alleyway down the first street of Ukiyoe and to his horror sees a man and some rats eating a woman.
At the school Kiyotsugu quizzes the other members of the Kiyo Cross on Youkai and the new transfer student, Yura Keikan seems to know a lot about them, explaining that the most dangerous Youkai used to be beasts in that they may be intelligent but they lack any rationality. Due to this Kiyotsugu invites Yura to join and properly announces the club's formation along with how the ceremony will be at Rikuo's house, of course he's shocked by the idea.
Yuki-Onna and Aotabou try to assure him that things will go well but what he's really worried about is the impression Yura gave. They arrive home to see the other Youkai at his house celebrating Rikuo's transformation and they all stop when he tells them his friends are coming over.
Kiyotsugu arrives expectantly with the other members and they start walking through the house, Shima is surprised to see what Rikuo's house is like and Yura is able to sense where Kurotabou, Kubinashi, and Natto were when they were spying on them. They arrive in the room where they'll hold the ceremony and Kejourou arrives to bring them some tea just as Kiyotsugu was about to start. This makes Shima and Kana think that Rikuo has an older sister and he quickly covers it by explaining she only helps around the house, in order to stop this happening again he runs off to the kitchen and explains the situation to them.
Once he gets back the other members of the Kiyo Cross are gone and walking on their own as Yura senses Youkai in the house. Luckilly Rikuo manages to catch up but Yura still insists on looking around and this leads to her looking around while the Youkai are struggling to hide themselves, they even manage to bump into Zen and even though he doesn't say anything Rikuo knows what he's thinking.
They look at some Buddha statues that Rikuo says belong to his grandfather, one of them catches Yura's attention as Rikuo realises that some of the Youkai are hiding in it. Before she can take a closer look Rikuo's grandfather shows up and manages to fool them by acting like an old man. Yura still thinks something's suspicious and a rat steps out, scaring Kana and runs off.
Yura chases after it with Rikuo right behind her and the rat almost doubles in size when they corner it, she throws some tags at it and swears to destroy Ayakashi as an Onmyouji of the Keikan clan. Kiyotsugu, Shima, and Kana arrive just in time to hear this and are excited at the prospect of Onmyouji and Youkai actually exist. She then explains that she's here to battle the Youkai in Ukiyoe as a test in order to become the head of the Keikan clan since the Youkai keader supposedly lives there. While of others are excited Rikuo is shocked.
Once his friends have left Aotabou and Yuki-Onna apologise for what happened and that they hadn't seen that rat before but have an idea of what it could have been. Meanwhile Kana and Yura walk home down the first street, talking about what happened and how Yura lives on her own. This doesn't last long as the same man from before, Kyuuso appears with his underlings as the very Youkai Yura warned the others about before and corner them into an alleyway. He refers to them as kittens and reveals his true face with his underlings doing the same, some of them move in but Yura summons one of her Shikigami familiars, Tanrou and gives it permission to devour them.

Remarkable progress with a client as recounted by QEI graduate, Eve Hayes, QEST Practitioner.
I.H. is an 11 yr. old
client with a very complicated medical history. She was born with hypoplastic left heart so the left side that should
oxygenate the blood before going to organs had not developed properly and so was
not functioning adequately. Thirty years ago there was no surgical
treatment for this condition. Fortunately, she was able to undergo her first surgical
procedure at just four days old.So that
she could survive, the process required three surgeries--the Glenn, Norwood,
and Fontaine, done in stages over a period of 5 years. Also due to lowered oxygen levels, she is
immune compromised and therefore prone to serious infections.
infections can cause blood to become septic, rapidly inducing seizures. I.H. was unable to take seizure medicines
because she has allergic reactions to them. She was diagnosed with Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome that
means the septic condition in her blood can cause organ failure. As one doctor put "She is very delicate"
She is on
daily medication: Enalapril 2.5 mg 2x a
day to improve contractility of the heart, Lasix 1.5 mg 1x a day to release
excess fluid and one 81 mg. aspirin a day to thin blood and prevent clotting.
Years ago
her prognosis would be very grim. Now
many of these "kids" are in their 30's as the medical community seeks to find
ways to help them live longer. Her
parents want to use Quantum Energetics Structured Therapy to improve her chances
of survival and improve her overall health and improve her immunity.
When I
began doing QEST with I.H, she was in a special needs class at school because
surgeries had damaged her fine motor skills and the lowered-oxygen
levels over time had affected her ability to read. She is very bright, highly verbal, and able
to recite back what has just been read to her. However she was unable to read or write intelligibly.
I started
with the foundational cranial work that I'd learned. In less than a month her teacher put her in a
more advanced group and began sending homework assignments with simple words
and math assignments. She has advanced
in reading and math and now is being sent to regular classes (not special needs) for increasing
periods of time.
I progressed through QEST in order. I.H.
has not had a seizure in almost 2 years which I'm very proud of. I really believe QEST is the reason she's not
had one. Her bouts of illness are
becoming less frequent and less severe. She continues to progress in school and with QEST we are accomplishing
our goal of improving her immunity and overall health.
ALSO: A few months after receiving QEST, I.H.s
teacher said "There must be something to this. I think that every kid in class ought to have some of this work." And she told a couple of parents that they
should bring their child. She came for
QEST herself after an injury. Other
teachers said that I.H. had improved "significantly" in schoolwork.

Exmouth's Defence of Bremridge Cup Continues (09.01.2016.)
Exmouth's defence of the DCCA Div. 1 tournament continued with a match against Tiverton. Originally scheduled as a home match for Exmouth, finding a suitable venue proved very difficult. Finding 5 hrs parking in Exmouth on a Saturday afternoon is near impossible at the best of times, but add to this the £50 hire charge being asked by several places, and the Manor Hotel being closed for the week, led Exmouth to asking whether Tiverton could host the match. This was agreed and Exmouth were happy to pay their £17.50 hire charge.
So far so good; but the weather conditions driving up the motorway towards Tiverton were atrocious to the point of being potentially dangerous, with torrential rain and spray all the way. John Stephens driving up from Plymouth found the main A38 blocked and he was redirected to minor roads and phoned in to say he would be late, and Steve Martin didn't know where the venue was situated in the town. Thus the omens were not good, but at least all the Exmouth team were in place by 2.30. The Tiverton team was somewhat compromised by the unavailability for one reason or another of several of their top players; Rudd, Richardt, Duckham, Hunter et al. and they had drafted in 2 other Cornish players besides Simon Bartlett to make up a competitive team.
In spite of all this, play got under way at the appointed hour (14.30); quiet descended and a drama slowly unfolded.
The first games to finish were on Bds 5 &6. On bottom board, Chris Scott was able to fork 2 rooks with his knight on move 24 and it was all over 3 moves later. On Bd. 5 Oliver Wensley reported on his game tus: "White abandoned his regular Kings' pawn opening in light of a recent match against his opponent, albeit rapid play, where his Caro-Kann defence was extremely effective.
Whether or not this shocked Black, he seemed completely fine with his Dutch defence until move eleven where, with White as yet uncommitted to castling, he decided to go on the offensive with 11…. Qh5. This allowed White to win a key central Pawn as Blacks' back rank defences had been abandoned. Having analysed the position, Black stood equal by developing his Queens' Bishop to e6 instead. Here White probably would have played Ng5 attacking it.
White had earlier ceded the Bishop pair advantage to Black in order to prevent Ne4. The better way forward for Black would be to develop his Bishop to e6 and potentially allow white to equalise by allowing the exchange of his Bishop for Whites' Knight.
After the text move, White realised the e5 space was in the offing for his Knight should a series of exchanges take place & this is what occurred. In the end, White took advantage of the open e-file & with Black's queenside not developed, managed to get the advantage." After playing 21.Ne5 getting his knight established in a forward position with threats, Black resigned.
And the games continued to finish in sequence – Bds. 4, 3, 2, and finally Bd. 1 which went to the last few seconds of extra time, and each one went to the visitors. Mark Abbott got the upper hand with just a rook and 2 minor pieces left. Jon Underwood's game revolved around control of the long dark-square diagonal towards his opponent's king, which finished with a fatal skewer. This left the top two games which were very finely balanced throughout, until the clock eventually decided the outcome. Bd. 2 featured a R+4 vs R+5 pawn ending. Martin had the extra pawn, but Retallick, with great concentration, managed to create his own threats. Looking at the clocks it appeared both players had the same amount of time left – a few minutes each, but in his concentration on the board, Retallick hadn't fully appreciated that his few minutes left was of his 20 minutes extra time, while Martin's few minutes left was of his original allocation of 100 minutes to reach move 40. Suddenly his clock started flashing red to indicate all his time had elapsed. 5-0. The Stephens-Hewson game looked completely blocked with pieces being shuffled around behind a barrier of pawns. When Stephens was down to 3 minutes left, compared to his opponent's 7 minutes, he launched a pawn advance that opened the a-file and he won a piece. His own pieces now had some room to manoeuvre and Black had to use up his time advantage in trying to work out the better lines. Eventually, his time ran out with Stephens' own clock well into his final minute.
Such results at this level are rare, but not unique, as Brian Hewson recalled a Plymouth 6-0 Exeter result between 2 evenly matched teams; the following year the same two teams in the same competition recorded Plymouth 0-6 Exeter.

"An opera begins long before the curtain goes up and ends long after it has come down", said American-born Greek soprano Maria Callas. "It starts in my imagination, it becomes my life, and it stays part of my life long after I've left the opera house." The power of opera to captivate audiences like no other spectacle has given us some of the finest singers in the world.

"People don't see their own beauty."
~ Sarah Crowley
I couldn't agree more with Sarah! We are all beautiful people, but sometimes we need guidance to feel confident and comfortable in showing it!
Growing up as a latchkey child from a broken family left me with a lot of time alone. I spent that time perusing fashion magazines and watching a lot of Television. Magazine and advertising images shaped my idea of beauty and I spent countless hours trying to emulate what I had seen.
But, magazine images don't represent who we really are and what we have to offer the world. As I aged, I realized that my Unique Personality was what made me beautiful and captivating. I rejected the perfect images that ruined my self-esteem and stole my precious time.
Yet, I knew in my heart that how we represent ourselves does matter. We are judged by what we look like - no matter how hard we try to resist. It's a function of our most primal self-preservation instincts as human beings. We can't stop others from judging us by our appearance, so we better be sure we project the conclusions we want others to make.
Your personality - who YOU are, YOUR beliefs and YOUR strengths, are what make YOU great!
Your First Impression is created by your headshot! Infusing who you are into YOUR Headshot is what creates the Know, Like and Trust factors that make people want to know YOU!
Contact me today to schedule a no cost phone conversation and start Building YOUR Business Personality with Confidence!

Well, 21,500 people read my Mother's Day post yesterday, bringing the total since I wrote it to nearly 100,000. I've had lots of lovely feedback (and a tiny smattering of the requisite trolls of course) – feedback including a woman who read it, decided she really did want to be a Mother and now has a baby!
Unexpected consequence, eh!
I'm very moved by how this thing I wrote in under 1 hour touched so many people so deeply.
You never know which of your sharings will be important, you really don't. You just have to create from the heart, from your true source, and put it out there.
Part of me thinks it's hilarious that I write all the time about what I *do* and it receives a lot less attention than this post about something I chose *not* to do!
It does show that the topic of 'not-Mothers' is one people want to share about. It also shows, sadly, that what I do or don't do with my body is still of more interest to the world than anything I'll ever do with my mind. Such is the life of a woman on this planet and I'm just pleased I'm able to lead the discourse on this aspect of my life and physical self. It's way past time that choosing not to Mother, or being physically unable to bear children, was put on the table as a legitimate experience for women.
So anyway, I choose not to use my uterus and it's of great interest – promoting Bik to quip 'Do you have any other body parts you're not using, which you can write about?'
Teehee. Look forward, people, to my upcoming 'To all the vegetarians with wisdom teeth' post 🙂

PHOENIX -- Paul Goldschmidt went hitless in back-to-back starts just three times through the season's first four months, which made his recent slump of five straight games and seven of eight without a hit so alarming.
Well, it was alarming for Diamondbacks fans.
There were no buzzers going off in the D-backs clubhouse and especially not in Goldschmidt's head during a 3-for-27 setback. Perhaps Chief Baseball Officer Tony La Russa described it best.
More from FoxSports
"Even Sinatra had to clear his throat now and then," La Russa told manager Chip Hale.
Goldschmidt appeared to do just that Sunday, when he re-announced his presence with a pair of doubles and then a single in his first three at-bats against the Reds to regain the lead for the National League batting title.
"I had some pitches to hit and I missed. That's the game," Goldschmidt said of the slump. "I had some pitches to hit (Sunday) and I hit them.
"Everyone has days or even weeks, months where you don't play well. You just go out there and try to play well the next time. I think every individual in here expects more of themselves than anyone else. We have high expectations of ourselves but also understand there's a lot of failure in this game. You're not going to come through every time."
Goldschmidt in recent days worked with hitting coaches Turner Ward and Mark Grace on some mechanical issues and busted out in the series finale against the Reds.
"I saw the ball come off his bat a lot better. That's what I could see," Hale said of any noticeable difference.
Goldschmidt is hitting .337 as the D-backs begin a three-game series against the Phillies, two points ahead of the Nationals outfielder Bryce Harper. Goldschmidt and Harper, not coincidentally, were named the top two hitters in the NL in Baseball America's annual Best Tools survey of the game's manager.
"Between at-bats sometimes he'll go in the cage and do a little work to refine what he feels," Hale said. "This guy is a classic student of the game."
Also in the survey, Goldschmidt came in second to Joey Votto in best strike-zone judgment, third in the best base runner category behind speedsters Dee Gordon and Billy Hamilton, and was named the best defensive first baseman.
* Catcher Gerald Laird (back) on Monday started a rehab assignment with Triple-A Reno after he played with the Arizona League Diamondbacks last week.
* Infielder Phil Gosselin (thumb), obtained from the Braves in the trade that sent Bronson Arroyo and Touki Toussaint to Atlanta, started a rehab assignment with the AZL D-backs.
* Reliever Randall Delgado (ankle) will pitch Wednesday at Salt River Fields and could be activated at some point on the team's upcoming, 10-game road trip.
* At some point during upcoming stretch of 21 games in 20 days, the D-backs will use a spot starter to give the five-man rotation an extra day off. Hale mentioned Josh Collmenter as a possibility, as well as a pitcher from the minors.

So you wanna be an artist. A successful artist. Then these are some rules to live by. Granted, artists are good at breaking rules (and should), and you can take or leave what you like here. But as far as I can tell, the successful artists I know have internalized this stuff.
About you:
- Admit that you want to be an artist and that you'll do whatever it takes to be one.
- Accept that you are not Picasso. You are almost certainly not a genius, as there are fewer than one of these per generation. Make up for it by working your ass off.
- If you have low or limited energy, avoid relationships that drain it, i.e. marriage and children.
- Have a studio that's not in your own home.
- Take a job only to pay for what you need to be an artist.
- Retain a healthy sense of absurdity. Accept that you will likely be funded by the buying habits of Republicans (because they have the money).
- Keep up with news and ideas and art that's happening in other places. Form some opinions. Be able to talk about it.
- Spend a lot of time with and around other artists. Talk. Drink with them. Go to openings with them.
- Be both supportive and competitive with your peers.
- Do not wait for a dealer or curator or collector to give you a place to show. Especially these days. Get together with your peers and make it happen.
- Go to school to get your MFA; you'll need the connections you make there.
- Don't even think about getting a doctorate in studio art. It's total bullshit and it's just a way to hide from the real world. Working in the real world is the lifeline to your work.
- Until you're so rich and famous that you can check out, you have to live in a community with an art scene, and you have to be a part of it.
- Exchange studio visits and artwork with other artists as much as you can stand it.
- Pay attention to the world and people around you. You'll need those observations.
About your artwork:
- Let your audience fill in the blanks. Don't be so literal.
- Be investigative rather than self-indulgent.
I don't want to complicate it by adding anything else.
Okay. Good luck out there.

In fairness, the author precedes that excerpt with "If you have low or limited energy…" I have a spouse and kids myself, so I appreciate that she qualifies that bit of advice.
Dave Hickey has said that an artist ought to live in a state of anxiety b/c anxiety seems to be a great creativity engine. He was referring to life in a big noisy city (and definitely not endorsing having kids), but I can say that parenthood has provided me with all kinds of stress that has fueled my productivity in the studio.
Still, the bit of advice in question is a sensible one, even if you and I have chosen to leave it.
Good list. I wouldn't call this pseudo-wisdom. I feel like I see similar tendencies in the more successful of our peers as well. I appreciate the frank comment on MFA programs, which are certainly a major point of contention. I'm not sure I believe in the concept of "genius", but the point is taken that there are very few successful artists who don't work their asses off. I think much of the wisdom that resides in these "rules" lay in the concept of investment: in oneself, in one's work, and in one's community. Investment means taking some chances and risking failure, and this is an interesting time to be thinking about this kind of risk.
If you create any artistic expression, if you have this spiritual necessity, if you were born with the urge to express yourself and tell thing through images, then, you are an artist. Anything else is bullshit; you don't have to dress like a "monkey", pretending to be an elevated intellectual and go to exhibitions talking crap and holding stupidly a glass of wine. Keep on painting, do whatever you want with your life, and forget about the rest of the world, especially critics and "specialist in the field".
How did Hemingway, Faulkner, Joyce, Tolstoy, Dostoevsky, Miller, Kerouac, et al, do it without an MFA program?
Every graduate of an MFW program I've ever met writes almost exactly like every other graduate of an MFW program or creative writing program I've met. I've asked more than a few, "What did they do up there? Put you on a table and rip your heart out?" They're like clone factories, these programs.
Programs don't create artists. Programs create robots. Programs enforce conformity. Programs program. No good writer, and certainly no great writer, ever followed a program.
My debt is book bills and bar bills. My money lines the pockets of booksellers and bartenders, not university regents and administrators.
-steal a mannerism to be found in New York now. Matthew Brannon suggests photographing books and book covers.
-always say clever things, but never say what you mean.
-play down subjectivity or pretend to. never mention words like 'expression'.
-if you want the opportunities of an MFA. show up around campus, hang out and go to the bar with all the cool students and professors. don't bother getting in debt.
-sell. the market is dominant so let go of the trappings of content.
-look pretty. it is time to accept that attractive people are successful.
-hang out with attractive people in public.
-if you are a young wealthy man or woman, your chances for success are much higher. marry a person lower on the class status than yourself. this is insurance against ruts, take their ideas and manners to borrow whenever you are lacking.
Hilarious that anyone can think that "hanging out" with MFA candidates and their professors, but not actually participating in the MFA program as a student will be at all comparative. AN MFA AND THE EXPERIENCE IS MANDATORY IF YOU ARE SERIOUS. The debt, and the sacrifice are the most important parts of the experience in many ways because that's where the consequences exist. Usually when so called artists bash MFA programs, or refuse to understand why they are essential for serious studio artists, it is because they resent the fact that they couldn't get accepted into a good MFA program, or were too scared to even apply. The vast majority of successful studio artists who are represented by the top galleries in any heavily populated region are MFA graduates. That is really the only stat that matters.
In other words, you can go to the library and read every book like Matt Damon in "Good Will Hunting," without ever spending a dime on college classes, but does anyone really believe this method will work at a similar rate of success than a full commitment as a student in the program? It's a pipe dream that you will be able to create the same overall environment or be able to mimic the pressure cooker that a quality MFA program provides. The program will force you to morph in many ways, and it will sharpen your edges in ways you could never create on your own. How do I know this for sure….because I tried it before I entered the MFA program.
Deep seeded jealously and regret exists from those artists that never seized the opportunity to participate in an MFA program, do yourself a favor and don't listen to those that haven't "made it" as a represented artist in a top regional gallery, and who never graduated with an MFA in studio art from a quality program. Glasstire is full of amateur artists that think their opinion matters, but we must remember that they are still amateur for a reason.
John Cage has always lead the rules for myself, but these are great
Finding an Art job does have some networking advantages, and you can immerse yourself in the scene much deeper I'm sure, although considering everything, I wouldn't recommend. This is because the only leg up you can actually gain for yourself will involve the quality of your work, and the aesthetic you put forth. Nothing else matters, just the work. Listen to a baseball movie for the only advice you will ever need "If you build it, they will come" from the wise Kevin Costner in Field of Dreams.
Also, I believe it's good to escape the art scene at times. The jaded, liberal, jealous art scene is full of poisons for creativity or positive thinking. I only spend small doses of time in the art scene, and it keeps me from wanting to take an acid shower to wash off all of the negativity that can become attached to you when conversing with these folks too much. Sometimes it's better to be the lone wolf, on the hunt with an unwavering focus. There are no shortcuts people, the work will lead the way always.
"- If you have low or limited energy, avoid relationships that drain it, i.e. marriage and children.
– Have a studio that's not in your own home.
– Take a job only to pay for what you need to be an artist."
These three bullet points are garbage. Don't listen to them. You don't have to give up major parts of being a human being in the world to be a successful artist. You don't have to be poor, only scraping by each month. Being financially stable, and not taking on additional rent by having a studio outside of your residence is actually a smarter plan. You can have a kid, a wife/husband, make a normal amount of money, and have a studio in your home. All three of these things are very healthy in the long term as a human being, and remember artists are human beings after all.
I like these. I used to bother my undergrad professors for any advice on how to get from life-point A to point B & juggle kids/teaching/finances, etc & all of them used to just blankly stare back at me or worse, grimace & tell me "figure it out, kid". They couldn't have given me better advice.
I'd like to add:
1. Fuck the box. Any preconceived notion of how you think life post undergrad/grad/relationships/etc… just dash that baby out of existence in your brain. It's important to keep an open mind… things only get weirder.
2. MFAs are silly. In the real world, no one cares. Especially not your peers. So if you do get an MFA, do it for no one but yourself or for the love of teaching. Ultimately, it is you & only you who makes the choices & meets the people that carve your destiny.
3. Be adaptive. Life throws some pretty serious wrenches. The struggle gets pretty cozy after a while.
4. Attention/fame is fleeting. So don't expect it or depend on it unless you are fine with being hooked up to a steady drip of misery, anti psychotics, & scotch. There's going to be long periods of time where people get bored with you. Or you get bored with you. So figure out how to get off somewhere on the act of making work. Often it will be one of the few things in life keeping you sane.
5. Know the things you are willing to sacrifice & what you are not. Remember them. Every once in a while one will catch on fire or get lost on it's way home from the bar. It's ok. Just remember them.
6. Everyone has an opinion they take for gospel. Everyone. Get used to it.
I'll add a mixed response to this. Getting an MFA, for me, was a vital step in the quality of my work, my thinking, and many successful artists I know have also gone through this rite. Is it that way for everyone? Not necessarily so. Plenty of people I know make great art and are successful without an MFA. Do I feel financially crippled by the debt I accrued? Totally. Does teaching support my life and my practice as a result of getting an MFA? Totally. It's a mixed bag.
I think of the MFA as the warp zone pipe at the end of the second stage in Super Mario Brothers. It gets you further faster, but you still might get stuck in world 8.
Christina has been against getting an MFA in all of her opinions lately and it should be stated that she has never participated as an MFA candidate, nor graduated with an MFA. How much can she really know about the program and the benefits? She may talk to people and get a quick glimpse of it maybe, but not a real look.
I see the top regional MFA programs very similar to capitalism, some prosper greatly, and some are left to pick up the scraps. This is important to understand going in. It is not a perfect world, you might end up making and selling art, or you may fade into obscurity and student debt hell after your 33 months in the program. Yet, if you graduate, you will always have the ability to make informed work and hope for the best while you teach some classes. Luck could always strike later, and for many it does.
Nothing is guaranteed, just like life. Some make it to the top tier with their art work, and some do not. Some even stop making work all together after the program. I suppose those graduates have their reasons for quitting the pursuit, and bitterness runs deep because they feel slighted by the program or the art market. Sometimes the market isn't fair, and those with great work are ignored for seemingly no valid reason. The only sure thing is that the art market is the wild west, and it is tricky to succeed no matter what.
In graduate school, it is a focus or fold situation, where you are rolling the dice with all aspects of your life, all the while knowing it is not the safest route. An MFA program is not for everyone, and that is the way it should be. You should be so artistically gifted that an MFA program is the obvious choice, for many this is not the truth of their situation. You have to posses a natural drive, and if you do not enjoy competitiveness, then you will not thrive. You need a thick skin, and the ability to quickly regenerate and grow back stronger from any mental blows that you receive the first year of grad school when criticism and confidence are lowest. That is when you figure it out usually, when you are seemingly striped of all the creature comforts and then things get raw. Often times you have to survive on very little money, while juggling surprises in your private life and accruing debt day after day. If you walk into this reality knowingly, you'd better have a turbo mode you can access mentally, ….oh and real top tier potential. Not to mention the desire for longevity with your craft. This is a life decision, one that should start off your foray into becoming a serous artist, and continue until you are one day a pile of dust in the wind. See it's simple.
I'm overstating it a bit, but it's pretty striking how none of the top tier artists I've worked with have MFAs. They all built their own network of artists for studio visits and eventually were connected to people they'd want to have as teachers anyway.
Yet at the next tier down (which is still relatively successful) almost everybody has MFAs. At this level artists may sell $25k worth of work in a NY gallery, but after accounting for production costs and time, they're still arguably hobbyists (like me).
I don't really think MFAs are a total waste of time, but it's clear that a lot of people acquire the same thing by applying that time and money outside of school or in undergrad. I can't remember the exact statistic, but I've read that less than half of blue chip artists have MFAs.
I'm going to speculate a bit and guess that the reason some of those more successful artists don't have MFAs is because they belong to a certain class of extremely motivated and energetic people who are able to be autodidacts that might even be held back by an MFA. I imagine those type of people are destined to be successful artists because of that starting point. I think many of us may need the MFA to help us catch up to those folks.
As to the blue chip artists, I think that may be a generational thing. MFA programs exploded in the last few decades, as we all know, and it's worth having these conversations since it's still a relatively new phenomenon.
But I think it really just comes down to the work. I've seen the work of many artists advance exponentially after their masters experience when compared to what they where making before (including some artists who worked with Christina's gallery, though I get that this is subjective to some degree…)
why wouldn't you want a free studio for a few years and a stipend to make work with?
That's why I got my mfa. Don't wanna teach at all.
All education is problematic. But we are all riding out some version of some shitty structure put in place long ago.
I had three people I talked to in grad school. And all the rest that "didn't get it" I just didn't talk to.
Students forget that they have control of their own education.
Options: work a dead end job and make art in your bedroom at your parents house, OR move to a different state, meet new people, and get paid to make art.
If you pay to go to grad school, make sure you go to Harvard or something so the investment will at least give you that rich people attention.
My opinion isn't that grad school is good, it's that everything sucks so why not take advantage of it.
Great advice Christina. Got my masters at UD years ago; tuition waiver and a stipend. Worth every penny.
I'm proud to have the degree. The two years were a great respite from the real world. The main thing I learned was that only myself is/was responsible for my work, my career and/or the validity or significance of all the effort. Suspension of disbelief gets me through the low times.

I received an email today explaining Tesco's plans to support British farmers and source it's produce locally. You've told us that you want to buy British. And that the journey from farm to fork should be far less complicated. The email states that Tesco's beef products already come from the UK and the Republic of Ireland, and as of July, all their fresh chickens will

This past August I was hired by the Institute for Canadian Citizenship (ICC) to document a citizenship ceremony in High Park. As someone with a background in welcoming newcomers (with Matthew House), and developing global citizenship skills in Canadian youth (with World Vision), and who specializes in documenting non-profit organizations, I naturally jumped at the chance.
So, on Thursday August 3rd, I spent the afternoon covering a beautiful event: thirty-five individuals from many backgrounds joining as one in declaring their loyalty to Canada and their new identity as Canadian citizens.
The event started with people signing in and turning in their permanent resident cards, as they will no longer need them. After the ceremony each new citizen is able to apply for a Canadian passport.
People then gathered for round tables where community leaders facilitated a discussion of what becoming a Canadian citizen means to them. Members of each table stood to share with the larger group something meaningful from their table's discussion. It was inspiring to hear the personal stories and expressions of love for Canada as I worked to capture the moment.
After the table talks, everyone moved to the amphitheatre for the main ceremony. This is the same amphitheatre where Canada Stage holds Shakespeare in High Park.
Canada Stage was a partner in the event and the theatre company's Artistic and General Director, Matthew Jocelyn was one of the speakers on stage. Member of Parliament for Parkdale-High Park, Arif Virani, as well as Salah Bachir, President of Cineplex Media and Chancellor of OCAD University and Alykhan Haji, the Acting Director of ICC's Building Citizenship program were also on stage to witness the event and to speak to the new Canadian citizens.
The event opened with a smudging ceremony led by Aboriginal Elder Cat Criger.
Citizenship Judge Albert Wong presided over the ceremony with a warm balance of wisdom, personal insight and humour.
People declared the oath of citizenship.
And then received their certificates of citizenship and shook hands with the honourable members on stage
Jenni Burke, an experienced Canadian actor who was in this past summer's Shakespeare in the Park show, sang O Canada. It was clearly an emotional moment for many present as they sang the anthem for the first time as a Canadian citizen. (I joined in as I took photos, and was quite moved as well.)
Words were spoken by the special guests onstage, and then, of course, there was cake!
I admire how well the Institute for Canadian Citizenship organized the ceremony to be meaningful and engaging for all involved. My thanks to them for hiring me to document the day. It will definitely be a highlight of my photo work for 2017.
