Oilers sign G Olivier Roy
The Edmonton Oilers announced the signing of goaltender Olivier Roy this afternoon. Roy is a famous junior prospect, having played for Canada at the world junior championships.
Roy's resume contains positives we don't see from lower end prospects but lacks the consistency we generally associate with elite level goalies as they graduate their junior careers.
Roy finished 4th this season in Q save percentage (.911) which is a slight improvement over last year's 5th place finish.
Here's the all-time list of goaltenders drafted by the Edmonton Oilers and their career games played. It's an easy list to move up quickly.
- Grant Fuhr 1981 (868gp)
- Andy Moog 1980 (713gp)
- Jussi Markkanen 2001 (128gp)
- Jeff Deslauriers 2002 (58gp)
- Devan Dubnyk (51gp)
- Mike Morrison 1998 (29gp)
- Darryl Reaugh 1984 (27gp)
- Joacquin Gage 1992 (23gp)
- Mike Greenlay 1986 (2gp)
- Mike Minard 1995 (1gp)
- Adam Hauser 1999 (1gp)
- Rob Polman-Tuin 1980
- Ian Wood 1982
- Chris Smith 1982
- Dave Roach 1983
- Brian Tessier 1985
- John Haley 1985
- Gavin Armstrong 1987
- Tom Cole 1988
- Greg Louder 1990
- Mike Power 1990
- Andrew Verner 1991
- Evgeny Belosheiken 1992
- Chris Wickenheiser 1994
- Jeremy Jablonski 1994
- John Hultberg 1996
- Patrick Dovigi 1997
- Alexander Fomitchev 1997
- Kristian Antila 1998
- Glenn Fisher 2002
- Bjorn Burling 2004
- Bryan Pitton 2006
- Olivier Roy 2009
- Tyler Bunz 2010
Roy is one of only three goalies under contract for next season (Dubnyk, Khabibulin). Bryan Pitton is rfa and the AHL tandem of Martin Gerber and Jeff Deslauriers are free agents after this season. He is 6.00, 180.
Here's the Redline draft day report:
"Roy has great athleticism and flexibility and is a tough-minded competitor who never gives up on a play. While he's fairly advanced technique-wise, the problem for this typical butterfly netminder is his penchant for constantly going down to the ice too early and swimming around the crease. He gets by with that style in the junior ranks, but at only 5-11 and 163 pounds, he's too small to cover the corners, and we suspect that pro shooters will pick him apart up high and take advantage of his habit of overcommitting."

RevisitationPosted by Lawrence Dillon in Uncategorized
I'm off tomorrow for my second visit to Salt Lake City in as many months. This time the Salt Lake Symphony, conducted by Sergio Bernal, will perform Figments and Fragments, Part One of the Schumann Trilogy. It will be nice to catch up with some of the new friends I made in September, and to hear the third performance of this piece in six months.
A few weeks ago, I wrote about the long hiatus between the fourth and fifth performance of my fifth quartet, which enabled me to do some picayune revisions. The same thing has happened with this piece: the last performance was on May 9th. There was a timbre introduced at the outset – a blend of piano, vibe, clarinet, flutes and muted violins – that recurs at various points throughout the piece. In performance, I felt that those recurrences weren't clear enough – they were getting buried in all of the information surrounding them – so I expanded and developed them a bit over the summer. I think this version will make a bit more sense.
I'll be giving a preconcert lecture as a guest of the Utah Humanities Council in which I will be talking about this piece and Schumann's First Symphony, which is also on the program. I spent a few weeks in close quarters with Schumann's First about thirty years ago, and I haven't looked at it since. At least not until this week, when I've been boning up in preparation. Much more there than I remembered.
So if you are in Salt Lake City Saturday night, come by Libby Gardner Hall at 6:30 to hear me talk about Bobby Cobbler and me. Better yet, come at 7:30 – the music says more than I ever could.

Wilkins in, Hollins out with record streak at stake against NuggetsPosted on November 29th, 2009 – 8:32 PM
By Jerry Zgoda
Tonight's lineup shuffling — Damien Wilkins in, Ryan Hollins out — at Denver isn't necessarily the change or changes Kurt Rambis has said he is contemplating.
Rather, it was made mostly for matchup considerations: Ryan Gomes started on Kenyon Martin. Rambis felt Wilkins' experience would give him a fighting change against Carmelo Anthony.
Didn't last long.
Anthony has 13 points already in the first quarter — and Nuggets lead 28-19 with a couple of minutes left — and Rambis soon switched Gomes over to try against Melo.
If the Wolves lose tonight, they tie the franchise record for longest losing streak at 16 games.
This has been a subject on sports-talk radio lately, but I'll also throw it out here:
Who's going to win more games this season: Vikings (including playoffs) or Wolves?

DIY blast furnace
How to make simple diy backyard blast furnace/forge
Note: This project requires very close adult supervision.
Old vacuum cleaner
Pipe to fit inside vacuum hose
Electrical tape
Safety glasses
1. Build up a base hearth and sides with the bricks- stack them closely together – support the outside by pushing sand against it.
2. Important: set up vacuum to blow not suck. Attach the pipe to your vacuum hose with electrical tape, then push the pipe into a gap in the bricks towards the base of the hearth.
3. Start a small fire inside hearth. Sprinkle on top of fire with charcoal and turn on vacuum on low setting, when fire is able to sustain the extra airflow.
4. Keep adding charcoal from the top – be sure to wear your safety glasses.
5. With parental supervision – add steel rods and sand and practice your blacksmithing – using safety equipment to remove and add steel to fire.

Doel, Belgium.
Since the 1970s this town has been threatened with complete demolition due to the planned extension of the Antwerp harbour. Because of succesful protests it was stopped until the 90s. The company in charge bought houses and refused to rent them out and has demolished whole streets of houses, this is in contra version with environmental, building and regulation laws in the province of Beveren. There is no economical basis to extend the harbour and the roads do not have capacity to take on more transport.
Today some 30-40 of the original 3000 inhabitants still live in this 800 year old town which is home to some interesting architecture such as the oldest brick built windmill in Belgium.There have been succesful court rules against the mayor and the company but in the end Doel was to be completely demolished in 2009, yet it is still there and its few inhabitants.This may have to do with KunstDoel or ArtDoel, many world famous artists have decorated the city and it serves as open air museum village. A lot of tourists, even in buses (I spotted one with school-teenagers and one with elderly people) come to have a look at Doel.
I guess today there is not much room for small traditional communities as they have to give way for industrial sites to keep the suburbs and cities alive. In China many towns have seen complete demolishing for the building of the 'Three Gorges Dam', where the inhabitants were paid to destroy their own homes and be moved into cities and suburbs.
I spent three days in Doel photographing, so many more photos to come =)

Jimmer Fredette shares his sense of the #SacKings locker room as the NBA's Trade Deadline approaches:
Jimmer Fredette shares his sense of the #SacKings locker room as the NBA's Trade Deadline approaches:
As the league's annual trade deadline looms, anxiety usually fills the air inside locker rooms across the NBA. However with the pending sale of the team, the Sacramento Kings aren't likely to make any moves before or by this year's deadline, which is less than 20 hours away. Here's how Kings guard Jimmer Fredette described the mood inside the Kings' locker room this season as the trade deadline approaches. "You know not too much (discussion). You know guys aren't really talking about it very much. They're just kind of just waiting their time and seeing what's going to happen. But they're not really talking about it. I don't think people hear too many rumors or anything like that, so we're just really focused on playing our next game and getting ready for Atlanta because that's what we have to focus on."

Tabloid-writer Harper Rostov breaks up with her boyfriend only to fall into the arms of Nick Cavallaro---certified punk-rock God who is considered a genius by fans and critics alike. Harper's newly single heart gets an overdose of chemistry from the Hitchhiker's Revenge guitarist as she falls for his intoxicating charisma.
Over the course of a single week, Harper is swept up in their sexual energy and the allure of the band. But soon she can't help wondering if what she thought she wanted---what she left her sweet, caring boyfriend for---is everything she'd hoped it would be. Plotted with precise timing and set against an incredibly vivid portrait of the ever-changing East Village, Falling Is Like This is a comedic and touching account of the whirlwind affair with a rock star every girl dreams about.
Val Emmich is an impossibly obnoxious guest at novelist Kate Rockland's bookreading.
"Say hello to a new rock star in women's fiction . . . one of the best novels I've read in a long while."
--- Emily Giffin, New York Times bestselling author
"A fun read for any woman who's wondered what it would be like to date that guy in the punk band you worshiped as a teenager."
—Stephanie Kuehnert, author of I Wanna Be Your Joey Ramone
"I was drawn in completely right away. . . . The story is full of real emotion and life."
---Greg Attonito, lead singer of The Bouncing Souls

By Molly Freeman, Hollywood Staff
Although television spin-offs have been a phenomenon since the days of Joanie Loves Chachi, the recent slate seems more egregiously unoriginal than ever before. In the works right now: The Flash spinoff from Arrow, How I Met Your Dad from How I Met Your Mother, Supernatural: Tribes from Supernatural, Better Call Saul from Breaking Bad, NCIS: New Orleans from NCIS, and a yet untitled spinoff from The Walking Dead.
We get it, the TV industry is cutthroat and it's hard to match the ratings of reality heavy hitters like The Bachelor or The Voice. It's not unheard of for a show to be canceled after only a handful of episodes, like ABC's The Assets. But it's beginning to feel as if the networks aren't willing to take even minor chances on the new.
When it comes down to it, there is less of a risk taken when networks give a spinoff the green light than if they order an entirely original pilot to series. A spin-off has an already established viewership that is at least partially guaranteed to tune into the premiere - though they may not stick around. But certain spin-offs (looking at you, How I Met Your Dad and Supernatural: Tribes) feel like the networks are dragging one idea out until they're absolutely, positively, sure it's not successful anymore.
Hollywood is definitely playing it safe with all these spin-offs, but these new series will need to live up to the hype or they could flop just as fast as The Assets. Although if that should happen, we might see the spin-off trend die out - which would be great.

Apple and the Mayan Apocalypse
Erick is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Gentle reader, I know what you are thinking, yet another boring article about Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL). I want to dispel such silly notions. Yes, we are going to talk about Apple and Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) and Google (NASDAQ: GOOG) and perhaps another few companies, but this is about the end of the world as we know it coming to you on Dec. 21, 2012.
I am writing this in the morning so I don't really know if there will be a Dec. 22, 2012, but since you will be reading this sometime in the future you can let me know in the comments section if we are being attacked by a horde of zombies. You did invest in precious metals, didn't you?
Back to Apple, and a discussion of its current stock price. There are quite a few reasons that Mr. Market is heavily discounting Apple, some of them justified, some of them not. As a long-term investor in the company, I try to buy at times when I see fear and I now see a price mismatch from the fundamentals.
In the case of Apple, there is a lot of uncertainty as to what comes next for the company. There has not been a revolutionary product since the introduction of the iPad, and for some reason Mr. Market expects these life-altering products to magically emerge every few years. With no Steve Jobs at the helm, Apple has shifted into an evolutionary company. This means that it is slowly evolving its products through iteration. I argue that this has always been the case, but some products are more revolutionary than evolutionary.
What does all of this have to do with the Mayan Apocalypse? Wel, Mr. Market is basically pricing an end-of-the-world valuation for Apple. They are assuming that Apple's growth will cease in the next two to three years and that it will go the way of other big companies such as Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) or Cisco (NASDAQ: CSCO), both of which got to the top of the world in terms of market cap only to then crash down to Earth.
Both Microsoft and Cisco are solid companies paying good, steady dividends and with steady cash-producing businesses, but their growth days may be well behind them. Cisco is giving you a 2.8% dividend yield with a PE of 13, Microsoft a dividend yield of 3.4% and a PE of 15. Apple at a current PE of 11.82 (dividend yield and PE data from Yahoo! Finance) and with a current dividend yield of 2%, looks to me like a screaming buy, but external factors (fiscal cliff, for example) are giving Mr. Market a severe case of myopia. Compared to both Microsoft and Cisco, both much slower growers than Apple, I see the valuation of Apple to be extremely compelling.
Here's why I think Apple will continue to produce better than average returns for investors for the next five years or so (my crystal ball gets awfully fuzzy after that):
1. Attractive valuation, cash flow and balance sheet
Apple is selling for dirt cheap, has no debt, mountains of cash and pays a good dividend, which is likely to increase in the future. That alone should justify the company selling for a market-average PE ratio of about 15. Compare that valuation to its main competitors: Google sells for a PE of 22 or so and Amazon for a ridiculous PE of greater than 3000. As growth slows for Apple, that cash horde should be converted into dividend payments to shareholders. You can then take that cash and invest in precious metals as you prepare for hyperinflation and you can also buy weapons and other survival supplies to prepare for The End of Times.
2. Premium brand with good growth potential in emerging markets
Apple's products are affordable luxuries. The brand is one associated with a premium product, one that can be afforded by most First World consumers. As Apple forges ahead, it tends to discount the old versions of its products, and this is what has happened with iPods, iPhones and iPads. For example, as the new retina display iPad 4 emerges, the iPad 2 gets put on the clearance bin, and is snapped up by Thrid World consumers who are increasingly getting an appetite for premium American brands. True, Apple's margins will go down over time, but the penetration of Apple's products are low in emerging markets and as such they should be able to offset the effect of the lower margins by increasing their volumes and as a consequence their overall revenues.
3. Apple products are addictive and their ecosystem is without peer
The real battle for the soul of the consumer is being fought right now by three companies: Apple, Google and Amazon, each with its own strategy. Apple gives you highly addictive integrated products with an unmatched ecosystem of apps. Google and Amazon are not far behind in this regard, but they have not caught up to Apple. All three companies are battling fiercely to get you to buy their devices and get you hooked into their web of apps and content. Apple is strongest in music and number of apps. Google is an open platform that sucks you in through Search and Gmail and their Android ecosystem, which is no slouch in terms of apps and functionality. Amazon is strongest in books, and is making waves with its Kindle Fire, which is sold at a loss in order to suck you into Amazon's own rich ecosystem of content. Apple products are designed with planned obsolescence in mind -- after a while Apple stops allowing iOS upgrades to the older models and in order to get the cool new features you have to buy a new iDevice (my iPad 1 still works very well, but is no longer updgradeable and remains at iOS 5.1).
In summary, I think that Apple has steady growth remaining for a few years, especially given low penetrance into emerging markets and the upgrade cycle present in First World markets. Apple's valuation is very attractive at these prices. Compare the yield on Apple and a 10-year U.S. Treasury bond. If the world does not end today I am betting my money on Apple.

Don't We All Need a Break Now and Then?By // February 11th, 2013
So you're probably one of those people who spend a lot a time working at your computer – hour after hour….But every now and then, don't you just want to take a teeny, tiny break? Me too!
Ask just may have the solution for you. Ask.com's Games section is a mother lode of games you can play right in your browser. But be warned: they're highly addictive! For ease in browsing through them, we've divided them into these categories:
Without admitting to anything - such as how much time I might actually spend playing these games - I've found a few that I really like. I thought I'd share my top three with you, starting with one of my favorite things to do - crossword puzzles! We have a few of these in the Word section, but Crazy Crossword is the one I really like.
Next, one of our newest additions to the Action category is Pizza Truck! Several levels of difficulty as you drive a delivery truck loaded with ingredients to Papa's Pizzeria. I'm still getting the hang of driving the truck over the hills without dumping loads of mozzarella everywhere. It's hard work keeping customers happy!
And finally, who says games should be mindless? In our Education section is The Brain Game that tests the strength of your brain, and probably helps improve your brain's recall ability.
There! Lots of things to fill up the rest of your day. (You're welcome.)

Graduate School
New and readmitted graduate students will register for courses online upon your arrival on campus.
All currently enrolled students who plan to continue in the coming semester should register according to the deadlines established in the Academic Calendar.
Included are all students who are planning to study on campus during the upcoming semester and those who, although not on campus, are planning to complete requirements for a degree during that semester. Students who are in doubt with regard to their plans for next semester should register nonetheless. If it becomes certain that they will not be enrolled, the dean of the Graduate School must be informed without delay. Students who do not plan to return and who will not have completed degree requirements should formally withdraw or request a leave of absence through the dean of the Graduate School.
Students who do not register by the pre-registration deadline will have a hold placed on their accounts. Those students must contact the Registrar's Office to have the hold removed. At that time a $15 late pre-registration fee will be assessed.
Thesis or Prelims
Students who have completed all course requirements, to retain continuous enrollment, a course registration for thesis preparation (2990) or preliminary exam preparation (2970) must be filed in Banner.
Summer Study
Students who wish to earn residence credit toward their degree during the summer should determine with their departments whether such arrangements are possible. The department will send written confirmation of such arrangements to the registrar.
Full-Time, Part-Time Status
Because the University is obligated to confirm the enrollment status of many students on a regular basis (e.g., for guaranteed loans and Veterans Administration and Social Security benefits), it is necessary to maintain adequate documentation to support the certifications made. It is the student's responsibility to inform the registrar or Graduate School of any change in enrollment status and, as appropriate, to notify any agencies from which benefits are being received on the basis of student enrollment status. The dean will review any part-time enrollments with the departmental representative and will notify any students for whom permission for part-time enrollment is not granted.
Graduate Students Not Registering Due to Withdrawal or Leave of Absence
Students intending to withdraw should do so through the dean of the Graduate School. In some instances, a withdrawal may be in the form of a leave of absence. On specific application by the student, such leaves of absence will be granted by the dean of the Graduate School in consultation with the department involved. In general, such leaves are granted for a specific period of time with the understanding that the student will return at the end of that period to continue his or her studies. Note: Degree candidates must remain in continuous enrollment and are subject to the usual fees unless they formally withdraw from the Graduate School. Students who have withdrawn from the Graduate School are not eligible to use any University facilities, including use of the library or supervision by a thesis advisor. Such students cannot be degree candidates while they are not enrolled in the Graduate School. If, in the future, readmission is desired, a formal request must be made to the dean of the Graduate School.

Coachella which is taking place over the course of two weekends this year (April 13-15 and 20-22) revealed their 2012 lineup. Last week, Azealia Banks was the first artist confirmed, and earlier today they confirmed The Weeknd (maybe he found a band?), and before that, Jimmy Cliff, Breakbot, and Housse De Racket. The reunited Pulp then announced itself. The full lineup also includes headliners The Black Keys, Radiohead, Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg, not to mention, as predicted, the reunited At the Drive In and the reunited Mazzy Star (!), and Madness and Refused (!) and Jeff Mangum and many, many more that you can see below...

Amy Levin for The Revealer! It's already attracted one great comment:
"God bless America and mitt romney. Save the constitution and america"
This must be worth reading!
We hear about the black vote, we hear about the Mormon vote, but we seldom-to-never hear about the black Mormon vote (or black Mormons at all, for that matter). In fact, when it comes to presidential politics, most of us can't even read the word Mormon without Mitt Romney's branded-white, male face suddenly appearing, side smirk and all. Despite the Mormon church's efforts to diversify and "disrupt the dominant image of young white males riding bikes and knocking on doors" with examples like the "I'm a Mormon" campaign and the "Meet Mormons" website, this image of the white, heterosexual, Romney-voting Mormon tends to hover in our dim and narrow collective (voter) imagination.

Pov-marys grandmother
"Geez, mar-mar, you think you put enough stuff in these boxes?" I look over to my granddaughter and she looks like she is in total shock, with her mouth hanging so far open you could probably fit the ocean in there. I laugh at her expression. I guess my daughter never told her about poor old grandmas house. Still laughing at mar-mar i tell her the same thing i was told from my mother, "You know what they say about your mouth hanging down like that for too long." She closes her mouth and looks at me with happiness for the first time. She had a puzzled look on her tiny face. "What do they say grandma?" I turn my head to the right to look at the setting sun and the ocean waves churning about like angry little things that want to come get anyone whos on the beach near my house. I look back at my little mar-mar and tell her the same thing my mother told me,"If you have it out too long you will end up keeping it that way." I give her a serious face and tell her "forever." She shuts it as fast as she could for it fell open again as she was staring at my little house insted of me. I laugh at her and decided it was time to go in the house. "O.K, mar-mar its time you get the rest of your stuff and get in the house. Oh, and please, don't forget to grab your blanket that i gave you." I start to grab a box, when I hear mar-mar yell "OUCH!!" I lugh. Mabey I sould have told her that the lip where the door meets the car is a little lower than the rest of the car. Oh well. I look to see if she 's alright and that she is o.k. She is staring at me with a glare tht that the saying" if looks could kill" i think that would happen. I shut the trunk and start to walk towards the house. I look behind me to see if mar-mar was coming.. she was just grabbing a small bax and my balnket i gave her."You coming? I don't think that you are going to want me to un-pack all of your stuff, do you? I think i might find somehting i dont think you will like me to SEE." I see mar-mar look scared and then run to the front door to get infront of me. I laugh really heard. "O.K, here we go,let's get insid ebefore it gets too drak outside."I move the box that was in my hand to my left side hip so as to be free of a single hand. I open the door and step into the tiny hallway and turn on the lights that was just on the sid eof the wall near the window that you could see the in living room. I walk over to my firepalce and see that there was a slightly small fire burning no other lights were on in the house so it made it difficult to see. "Hmmn, seems that someone is here or just left." I heard nothing so I decided that no one was in the house. I turn to get a light on in the living room when I heard the hallway floor boards creak. I whisper to mary that she needs to get behind me and remain quiet. "Sush, and do not say a single word." I hear her walk behind me with that tiny box and blanket with her. I hear the sound coming closer to the living room when I saw a shaow move in the house, I ran for it and punched it. "Mary, there's alight behind you, TURN IT ON NOW," the light comes on and i see who it was. It was a frightened Embry Call. I start to laugh. I heard him yell "OUCH" after i smaked him in the shoulder. "Geez, you gave me a run for my life there embry. I thought you were a killer or something. Is it so hard to use the door or give me a phone call, but no instead you have to scare m eand my little mar-mar to death!!" He looks at me and He says,"Um, Sara, are you seeing things, because the only person I see is you." I am frightened at this point. "Was ther someone else here with you?" While I ask him this,I am frantiaclly looknig everywhere for my granddaughter. I have my back to Embry when I hear mar-mar yell" LEAVE MY GRAN-MA ALONE!" and then a loud thud. I quickly turn around to fund my little mar-mar on top of Embry and about to smack him with her tiny little fist. I stop her before something happens, and i don't want something to happen. "hey, mar-mar, can you get off of my friend there. Um, i hope you are not crushing him." I laigh at her expression. She looked scared at of her mind but also had a warriors battle face on too. She slowy gets up and then realizes how big he is and runs to me. I giggle and when I see that Embry is o.k, I turn to my little mar-mar, and proced to tell her who the stranger was. "Mary, this is Em.," I was cut off by who i was introducing. "Embry Call, um, nice to meet you." He slowlys reaches his hand out to mary, after she shakes his hand i introduce mary to Embry."Embry, I want you to meet my lovely grandaughter, Mary Parkinson." I look between them and they are still holsing hands. "HUMM, you guys want to um let go of eachother?" I laugh as they both snatch their hand away and I think that mary has found someone she can trust other than me, I knew things are giong to turn out right!

Liora Manne Windsor Square Indoor/Outdoor Pillow
Patti from Houston, TX– Verified Buyer
Well made and beautiful. Purchased for outside, but am using inside. The material is similar to felt, so every time the winfd blew a pillow off the couch, it fell on the patio and because it is similar to a felt material, it caught every little speck of dirt or dust on the patio and was difficult to clean off.
rush from ohio– Verified Buyer
lovely...purchased greenish/yellowish pillows previously and thought these might work, but the color was just a bit off for my design scheme. Too bad. I even tried to make them work in other areas of the house, but to no avail. Sadly returning perfect pillows.
textured & beautiful
becky rush from monclova, OH– Verified Buyer
These indoor/outdoor pillows are wonderful. I have placed them on a tobacco leather sofa with fabric cushions, and paired them with aqua as well as brown/tan striped pillows, and they provide a glorious pop of color. The texture and design stands out. These are not cuddly soft pillows, so don't purchase them thinking you will take a catnap on them ;)

Everybody knows that sport and art don't mix, right? Movies about Baseball are often cheesy and sentimental, paintings of motor racing or golf can be painfully kitsch and the less said about football's relationship with pop music the better.
As the doors closed on the inaugural Fantasista exhibition there was a buzz of excitement from all involved and a feeling that we had proved beyond all doubt that football and art should not be kept apart.
The exhibition was hung at the Cello Factory in Waterloo, the very room in which the first ever Dalek was constructed by the BBC props department back in 1963. As I introduced myself to artist duo 'Quiet British Accent' I happened to be wearing one of their own works of art; a football shirt adorned with the slogan "Shit Gallery No Fans". Nothing, it turns out, could have been further from the truth.
It seems a long time since Fantasista was no more than a few scribbled words on the back of a pub napkin. We knew then that when attempting to sell the idea of a football art exhibition in the UK there might a few raised eyebrows from sections of the art community, and perhaps an adverse reaction from some football fans. Both sets of doubters might agree with another of Quiet British Accent's slogans that 'sport and art do not mix'.
There are, of course, some sports that we traditionally associate with art, such as Horse Racing, Fox Hunting, croquet, billiards etc. So why not football? Surely football has all the attributes – colour, movement, drama, emotional highs and lows, passion, theatre, architecture…
Fantasista director Theo Delany spoke about this subject in a recent BBC interview:
"Football now is universal, it's for everyone. It cuts across all class barriers, all levels of education and all national barriers. I think it's now as valid an area to be talking about art as any thing else"
I spent the week leading up to the Fantasista Exhibition in São Paulo, as the guest of Itaú Cultural, an institution that helps promote the value of Brazilian culture.
In Brazil there have never been the same attitudes of snobbery towards football that there have been in the UK. There is perhaps an inherent snobbery towards poorer sections of society and there is an enormous wealth divide, but football has always been seen as something that unites the classes.
I watched the Confederations Cup final in Villa Madelena, where the fans' joy at victory over Spain spilled onto the streets and we all drank and danced and soaked up a typically Brazilian carnival atmosphere – it was wonderful.
The walls of almost every bar and pub in Villa Madelena are shrines to the beautiful game; lined with photographs, posters, shirts, scarves, and the occasional painting or drawing of footballing legends from across the globe.
Many of the participating artists at this year's Fantasista exhibition have the same ideology that I found in abundance in São Paulo. Works by Ezequiel Suranyi, Dave Merrell, Zoran Lucić, Stanley Chow, Haarala Hamilton, Philip Watkins and Sir Peter Blake would not look out of place on the wall of a smoke filled bar in Brazil. It is the work of Paul McKay, however, that truly encapsulates the spirit of Madelena. McKay's 'The Bedroom of a Man City Fan' is the very essence of obsessive football fandom, the type of which you will find here in Brazil – just swap blue for yellow, Goater for Garrincha and you can almost taste the Caipirinha.
The football fan's obsession with sticker collections, cigarette cards, figurines and the like is a popular theme amongst the Fantasista artists. Sir Peter Blake's 'F is For Football' is a reflection of his own obsession with collectables whilst Otto Li's 'Make Your Own David Beckham' seems to me to poke fun at both the concept of memorabilia and the cult of the footballing celebrity.
The Fantasista exhibition was not, however, dominated by works of retrospective footballing nostalgia – far from it. Julia Alvarez and her team of curators at Bearspace have achieved a wonderful level of variety and quality amongst Fantasista's 19 artists.
I am particularly drawn to Quiet British Accent, whose work, to my mind, focuses on the 'veneer' of football and the way it is perceived as a whole – the very thing that makes it a questionable subject for an art exhibition. Amongst their work is a piece called 'Swap Me' that displays a collection of football stickers in which the face of each player is identical (I am moved to wonder if this is how my mother might have viewed my own football sticker collections). It is this repetition, of course, that renders the idea of swapping the stickers completely pointless. The wit and charm of Quiet British Accent's work really sets the tone for the Fantasista exhibition, an exhibition that has a lot to say but doesn't take itself too seriously.

DAYTONA BEACH - The Florida Department of Health in Volusia County has issued a rabies alert for the western region of Volusia County. This is in response to two raccoons and one feral cat that tested positive for rabies in the last two months. Rabies is a disease of the nervous system and is fatal to warm blooded animals and humans. The only treatment for human exposure to rabies is rabies specific immune globulin and rabies immunization. Appropriate treatment started soon after the exposure, will protect an exposed person from the disease.
All citizens in Volusia County should be aware that rabies is present in the wild animal population and domestic animals are at risk if not vaccinated. The public is asked to maintain a heightened awareness that rabies is active in Volusia County. Alerts are designed to increase awareness to the public, but they should not give a false sense of security to areas that have not been named as under an alert. The recent rabies alert is for 60 days. The center of the rabies alert is west Volusia County and includes the areas around DeLand, Orange City, and Deltona.
An animal with rabies could infect other wild animals or domestic animals that have not been vaccinated against rabies. All domestic animals should be vaccinated against rabies and all wildlife contact should be avoided, particularly raccoons, bats, foxes, skunks, otters, bobcats and coyotes; this includes feral cats. The following advice is issued:
Keep rabies vaccinations up to date for all pets.
If your pet is bitten by a wild animal, seek veterinary assistance for the animal immediately and contact your local animal control services.
Call your local animal control agency to remove any stray animals from your neighborhood.
Do not handle, feed, or unintentionally attract wild animals or feral cats by leaving pet food outside, or garbage cans open.
Never adopt wild animals or bring them into your home.
Teach children never to handle unfamiliar animals, wild or domestic, even if they appear friendly.
Prevent bats from entering living quarters or occupied spaces in homes, churches, schools, and other similar areas, where they might come in contact with people and pets.
Persons who have been bitten or scratched by wild or domestic animals should seek medical attention and ensure the injury is reported to the Florida Department of Health in Volusia County at 386-274-0634 or after hours at 386-316-5030.
For further information on rabies, please visit the Florida Department of Health website: http://www.doh.state.fl.us/environment/medicine/rabies/rabies-index.html.

The entire Jonas clan was on hand Monday to support Nick Jonas and his new gig on Broadway as the star of "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying."
The family braved the rain to stand in Times Square, watching as the promotional poster for the musical, featuring Nick, was hung in midtown Manhattan.
"Exciting day for NJ," his brother Joe, 22, tweeted about joining his brothers, parents and sister-in-law to cheer on Nick.
The eldest Jonas brother Kevin, 24, also chimed in that he was "excited to see @NickJonas back on Broadway."
Nick Jonas, 19, will star as J. Pierrepont Finch in the revived musical starting Tuesday.
He is taking over the lead role from "Harry Potter" actor Daniel Radcliffe and "Glee" star Darren Criss, who filled in for a three-week run after Radcliffe's departure at the start of January.
This will not be the first Broadway run for the former Disney actor.
He got his start in showbiz as a child actor on Broadway, appearing in "A Christmas Carol," "Beauty and the Beast" and "Les Miserables."

Although it started late this year, the Ward Faulkenberry Memorial Christmas Basket Fund has set a record in the amount of money it collected to help Lancaster County families this year.
Elaine Adkins, executive director of HOPE, which is in charge of the charity drive this year, said the Christmas Basket has surpassed the total collected during the same time in 2001.
During that year's drive, donations topped $15,000.
Danny O'Brien is looking to the future.
Sitting in his Lancaster home and petting his 8-year-old miniature schnauzer, Arnie, the outgoing Lancaster City Council member is busy planning what to do with himself after Jan. 7.
That's when O'Brien, 53, steps down from his District 6 seat after 12 years and his successor, Sara Eddins, is sworn in.
He expects there will be plenty to keep him and his wife of 30 years, Kathy, busy.
INDIAN LAND – The chairman of the Pleasant Valley Fire Commission is looking forward to work getting under way for a new station.
The Pleasant Valley Volunteer Fire Department has found a place to build a new station, across from the southern entrance of the Fox Ridge subdivision on Possum Hollow Road.
Two acres have been donated to the fire department, and County Council advanced $200,000 to buy the other acre of property at a recent meeting.

There could be a village renaissance in store for the Brooklyn neighborhood.
Lancaster County just received word that it has received a $500,000 Village Renaissance grant through the Community Development Block Grant program.
Edward Reid rose from his slump and smiled big when Santa Claus entered his room at Springs Memorial Hospital on Saturday.
He was one of many patients whose day became a little brighter when the white-bearded man in the red suit visited the hospital.
Santa came with the Lancaster Leathernecks, the local detachment of the U.S. Marine Cops League. The group went room to room spreading Christmas cheer and handing out gifts to patients.
"It feel good," Reid said about the visit. "They're real nice."
A vehicle seized during a drug arrest will soon help Lancaster police crack down on crime.
The vehicle, a 1996 Toyota 4x4 pickup, was seized by the Lancaster Police Department during a drug bust a few years ago, but will soon become the department's latest tool in the fight against drugs.
It will join the department's drug enforcement group, and will probably be used for surveillance.
The latest graduates of Eastside Academy left their commencement ceremony Monday evening with a wealth of knowledge they can carry with them for the rest of their lives.
Gabrielle Barrett was the guest speaker at Eastside's semester graduation ceremony.
Barrett, the district's hearing officer for expulsions and truancy cases, spoke to the five graduating students and their families about bumps, barriers and boxes.
According to Lancaster Police Department reports:
– Rebekah Faye Farmer, 19, of Kershaw, was charged with driving under the influence and simple possession of marijuana.
An officer spotted Farmer with her high beam lights on hitting the curb and crossing the center line of North White Street, the report said. Another officer searched the car and discovered a bag of marijuana as well, the report said.
Written poetry came alive earlier this month as local high school students competed in a district-wide poetry contest at the University of South Carolina at Lancaster.
One by one, students took to the stage at Bundy Auditorium and gave their best oral presentation of famous poems.
Keigan Woodhart, a senior at Buford High School, came out on top.
Randy Cook is a pretty good carpenter, as evidenced by the kitchen of the High Point Circle home he shares with his wife, Crystal, and their three children.
Spotless and neat, the kitchen walls bear new paint, cabinets have been repaired and new floor covering is down. Family photos hang on the refrigerator.
Randy has plenty of time on his hands these days to fix up the house that he moved his family into less than a month ago.
Just like many around Lancaster whose lives revolve around a shrinking housing and home repair market, Randy Cook can't find a job.
