Volunteer Opportunities
There are all sorts of ways for generous, fun-loving people like you to get involved in the ArtPrize® excitement! Here's a sample of what's on the menu:
HUB Hospitality
Provide hospitality and support to visitors from near and far by volunteering at the ArtPrize HUB at 41 Sheldon. Make everyone feel at home and direct any inquiries to the appropriate personnel. When you check in for your shift, you'll be placed at a post working in our retail store, pop-up park, or as a docent or greeter.
Voter Registration
One of the most important jobs during ArtPrize! Help visitors set up their voter registration accounts and complete the registration process. Working knowledge of computers is a must. Extra training required.
Serve as an ArtPrize tour guide and ambassador of downtown Grand Rapids! You'll be equipped with maps and other resources and assigned to a specific location in the ArtPrize District where you'll welcome visitors, provide directions, answer questions, and promote activities and venues in your area. Must be willing and able to be on your feet for 3-hour shifts. All Wayfinders meet and leave from the Volunteer Lounge. This position is open to group volunteers.
Education Programs
ArtPrize offers awesome volunteer opportunities through family events, activities, and school programs. Volunteer positions range from lead docents to facilitators in our drop-in art studio spaces. Some of these positions require a background check, and some additional training.
ArtPrize Events
Assist in the general set-up and execution of official ArtPrize events to help facilitate the best possible experience for everyone involved. With a few exceptions, these events are usually in the evenings and will require a commitment of 3 to 6 hours.
Leadership Positions
All of our shifts need a Volunteer Lead! Leads are responsible for sending out and placing Volunteers in their specific posts, checking in with all posts during the shift, and collecting any ArtPrize resources at the end of the shift. Extra training required. Learn more about Volunteer Leadership positions.

Every Volunteer receives:
- A free Event Guide (includes map)
- A free ArtPrize Metro Card (for 10 free rides on the Rapid and unlimited use of the Silver Line during ArtPrize)
- Access to the Volunteer Lounge at the ArtPrize HUB (free snacks and a place to chill out)
- Access to Volunteer-only events
- Daily raffle entry for prizes
Plus, you can earn even more!
- For completing your first three (3) shifts, earn a coupon for 25% off your entire purchase from the ArtPrize store
- For completing every three shifts after that (6, 9, 12, etc.), earn a coupon for 50% off one item from the ArtPrize store
- For completing five (5) shifts, earn your "Fifth Shift Gift"—a special gift created for our most dedicated volunteers each year
We can't thank you enough for understanding ArtPrize, loving it, and giving so generously of your time to make this incredible event an experience to remember. Your smiles, energy, and enthusiasm fill us with gratitude and make us proud to be doing what we do. We hope you feel the same!
Become A Volunteer
Anyone ages 18 and older can volunteer for ArtPrize! All you have to do is apply online using a valid e-mail address before the end of Orientation. (You also have to be friendly and helpful and generally awesome, which, if you're looking into volunteering, you clearly are. Congrats! You're qualified!)
A quick note for Artists
If you're participating in ArtPrize as an Artist, you can still sign up to volunteer! Many Artists volunteer every year, and we love to have Artists involved in welcoming visitors and encouraging participation. However, please keep in mind that it is very important that ArtPrize is in no way connected with the promotion of your Artwork. That means that when you are volunteering, you are a Volunteer only. Any promotion of your Artwork in the competition while volunteering will result in the termination of your participation with the Volunteer Team. Fair enough?
Time Commitment
This is largely up to you. Some Volunteers want to help out all day every day (it really is that much fun), while others can only commit to volunteering for a few hours. Most will usually sign up for at least three shifts—because that's when the coupon perks kick in. Whatever works for you, we're happy to have you on the team!
As an ArtPrize Volunteer, there are just two minimum time requirements:
- Attend the one-hour Orientation
- Serve during at least one shift (each shift is typically about three hours long)
Pick an Orientation time and schedule your shifts through your Volunteer Account. (You'll receive your log in information after your application has been processed.)
Apply Now
- Click here to fill out the online Volunteer Application form
- Enter your name, e-mail address, and other information and then click "Continue"
- That was it!
When you're approved, you'll receive a confirmation e-mail with a username and password for your Volunteer Account.
Group Volunteering
Prefer to volunteer with friends? Perfect! Groups are encouraged to volunteer together during ArtPrize; it's a fun way to see art, extend hospitality to visitors, and spend time with your friends and co-workers in the great city of Grand Rapids. Group Volunteers are positioned as Wayfinders, the official tour guides and ambassadors of ArtPrize.
Registration for Group Volunteering will be open from July 1-31, 2016.
It's easy to sign up with friends. Here's how:
- Each member of your group should register for a volunteer account online. Before signing up for shifts on your volunteer account, send us an email at firstname.lastname@example.com with all of the names of your group members who will be joining us. We will give you special access to the available shifts through your volunteer account.
- Coordinate with your group to choose a date and time that works best for everyone. Each member of your group should sign up for theses shifts individually through your volunteer account. We will follow up with your group's point person after group sign up closes on July 31st.
- Sign your group up for a volunteer orientation session. Click here for a list of orientation dates and times.
After group volunteer sign up closes on August 1st, we'll be in touch with with more information about your volunteer shifts and orientation sessions.
Still have questions?
Download the Group Volunteering FAQs. We're here to make this process simple and fun, so please reach out with any questions.
Volunteer Account
Your Volunteer account is brimming with important information for Volunteers, so it's worth a few minutes to make yourself familiar. This is where you'll schedule volunteer shifts, find details about volunteer events, and personalize your Volunteer Profile with a photo of your smiling face.
Log in using the username and password we sent you via e-mail shortly after you submitted your volunteer application. (You'll probably want to change the temporary password to something easier to remember once you get into your account. Don't worry if you forget your password—you can reset it from the sign in page.)
Sign in to your Volunteer account. (Don't have an account yet? Create one here.)
Schedule Your Shifts
Because your time is valuable, you get to choose the shifts that you want during the times that work best for your personal schedule! By using an online scheduling system through your Volunteer Account, we're able to coordinate your schedule with the rest of the Volunteer Team and match your availability with all the ways you can help!
Sign up for shifts
- Sign in to your Volunteer Account and click the "My Schedule" tab to bring up your calendar.
- Click the "Help Wanted" sign on any given date to pull up a list of all the volunteer shifts available that day. You will also be able to see who else has signed up for shifts.
- Click the orange "Schedule Me" button beside a shift to add yourself to the schedule, then confirm by clicking the orange "Yes" button at the bottom of the next page. Click "Continue" to return to the calendar and sign up for more opportunities!
If you do not see the "Schedule Me" button next to a shift, it means the shifts for that position on that specific day are full. Please look to another day or position for open shifts.
Once you're on the schedule, you will be sent a schedule reminder 48 hours before your shift. Please note that, while you may change your schedule any time prior to this point, you may not change your shift after you have been sent this reminder.
Changing your schedule
You may change your schedule any time up until 48 hours before your shift starts. To change your shift, sign in to your Volunteer Account and follow these three steps:
- Click on the "My Schedule" tab to bring up your calendar.
- Click on the date you are scheduled. At the top of the screen you will see your personal schedule.
- Click "Remove Me" from the shift you can no longer fill. Be sure to find another shift you're interested in filling instead!
Check In for Your Shifts
Before each shift, all ArtPrize Volunteers need to check in.
- If you have a shift working at the HUB, you will need to check in at the Volunteer Lounge in the ArtPrize HUB at 41 Sheldon.
- If you have ANY OTHER shift, you will need to check in at the Volunteer Lounge at 50 Monroe. This is the main Volunteer Lounge where all Wayfinding, events, and education volunteers will check in.
All registered ArtPrize Volunteers are listed alphabetically by last name in a binder available in either Volunteer Lounge, and there's a unique PIN number beside each name. You don't have to memorize this number or anything, but you'll need your PIN to use the Sign-In Kiosk and check in.
Here's how to use the Sign-In Kiosk:
- Enter your Volunteer PIN, then touch the "Continue" button.
- Confirm your name and touch the "Yes" button.
- When it asks what you'd like to do, touch the "Sign In" button.
- Touch the assignment you've signed up for.
- Confirm your name, date, time, and assignment by touching the "Yes" button.
You are now officially signed-in for your shift! Go get 'em!
Note: The system will automatically sign you out and credit your account with the service hours. You will still need to check out with your shift Lead. And if you forget to sign-in before your shift, no problem—just fill out one of the time sheet forms available at the sign-in kiosk.
A few things to keep in mind
- You will be provided with a vest, apron, or pin to wear during your shift.
- Rain or shine, people come down in droves to visit ArtPrize during the short time period it is available. We count on our Wayfinders to assist them no matter what the weather! Be sure to dress appropriately for being outside for your entire shift, including umbrellas or raincoats if the skies look threatening.
- Unfortunately, children are not allowed to come along with their parents for their volunteer shifts. However, if your child is 18 years or older, they are invited to sign up for their own account and join you on your volunteer shifts. Be sure to coordinate your shifts together.
- There will always be a few snacks available for you in the Volunteer Lounge, so please help yourself any time before or after your shift! That said, we encourage you to be prepared for your shift and eat before you come.
Checking your service hours
If you'd like to check your current volunteer service hours, use the Sign-In Kiosk in the Volunteer Lounge.
- Enter your Volunteer PIN, then touch the "Continue" button.
- Confirm your name and touch the "Yes" button.
- When asked what you'd like to do, touch the "My Service History" button.
There you go! When you're finished, just touch the "Exit" button to close your session.
Volunteer Resources
Orientation & Training
We're committed to making sure you have everything you need to enjoy a great volunteer experience. That's why every volunteer is REQUIRED to attend Orientation. If you don't attend, you will not be able to volunteer.
Orientation is a one-hour training session during the week before ArtPrize. It's held at several different times so that everyone can attend, including weekday, weeknight, and weekend options.
Additional training will be provided for voter registration and Volunteer Lead positions. All orientation meetings and training sessions are held at the ArtPrize HUB at 41 Sheldon Blvd.
Sign up for Orientation and training sessions the same way you would schedule a shift through your Volunteer Account.
Training Materials
- 2016 Volunteer Handbook coming soon (August)
Volunteer Account
Odds are, you'll be able to find what you're looking for here. Learn more or sign in.
Volunteer Facebook Page
The ArtPrize Volunteer Facebook Group is a great place to get to know your fellow volunteers, share tips and stories, and stay up to date on the most recent ArtPrize news. This will also be a great place to find out about last-minute needs and other volunteer opportunities!
Wayfinder Kits
Every Wayfinder is given a full kit of resources to help you answer any question a visitor may toss your way. In addition to a copy of the guidebook and map, we'll provide you with maps of downtown restaurants, available restrooms, and other pertinent information to help you feel comfortable in your role, even if you're not super familiar with downtown Grand Rapids when you first sign up. Answers to voting and event questions will also be provided to help you give consistent and complete answers. That said, if you're still concerned about giving proper guidance, there are plenty of other opportunities to volunteer!
The Rapid/Silver Line Bus Service
Don't forget, one of the perks of being an ArtPrize Volunteer is 10 free rides on the Rapid and unlimited rides on the Silver Line during ArtPrize! These routes throughout the 3-mile ArtPrize District help make getting to and from your shifts as easy as possible.
Host an ArtPrize Artist!
ArtPrize attracts some of the world's most amazing artists—many of whom make an enormous effort to bring their ideas to Grand Rapids. By opening your home, you can help an artist offset some costs associated with participating in ArtPrize—and make a new friend (or two) in the process.
Each year ArtPrize helps match out-of-town artists with volunteers offering free temporary housing. Many previous award winners—including Beili Liu, Mia Tavonatti, Adonna Khare, Young Kim, and Anila Quayyum—were all hosted by volunteers.
To provide housing, just follow these simple steps:
- Review the "Tips for Hosting an Artist" (see below).
- Fill out the Host an ArtPrize Artist form and submit your application for review.
- Once approved, we will provide you with a spreadsheet of artists requesting temporary housing for you to consider.
- Reach out via e-mail or phone to connect with an artist who you think could be a good fit for your home. When you have made a good match and secured your agreement, we ask that you send us an email at firstname.lastname@example.com to let us know. In this email, please indicate if you plan to make additional matches, or if you are ready to have your name removed from the list of available hosts.
- Let the fun times begin!
Tips for Hosting an Artist
It is important to think through some of your expectations before signing up to host an ArtPrize artist. Use these questions as a guide to help you explain your preferences and the arrangements you're willing to provide.
- How many people are you able to host comfortably in your home? What are the sleeping arrangements?
- How long are you willing to have someone stay with you?
- Do you have a preference on the gender or age of your visiting artist?
- Do you have pets? Would you be comfortable if the artist brought their pet(s)?
- Do you smoke? Are you open to hosting a smoker?
- How much time do you anticipate spending with your guest? Are you willing to share meals or a cooking space?
- Are you willing to share your bathroom or other common spaces with someone new?
- Do you have a computer that you are willing to share if needed? Can you provide access to WiFi?
- Are you willing to let the artist use your laundry room if needed?
- Are you comfortable giving the artist a key to your home? Would it be okay if your guest is up early, out late, or at your home while you are out?
- Would you be able to provide any transportation for your guest if necessary, or are you close to public transit? Is there room at your home for the artist to park if they bring their own car?
When you're reviewing artists who have requested temporary housing and considering who to host, check out their website, Facebook page, Artist Profile on artprize.org, or even their Venue to get a better feel for what it might be like to have them stay with you.
We want you to have the best possible hosting experience. Feel free to reach out to several artists at once to give yourself options. Please remember that ArtPrize does not arrange any of the connections between artists and hosts, so make sure to reach out and invite an artist into your home.
Once you're in conversation with an artist, it's important to know when to say no. Address any concerns up front and if someone doesn't feel like a good fit, just say so—they won't be offended, and you'll both be happier in the end.
If you agree to host an artist, and it becomes evident later that you're not a good fit for each other, we strongly encourage you to be direct and ask the artist to find alternative housing for the duration of their stay.

Heinze looks a decent partner for Nagy hope they click and get the goals you have been lacking. Bit of luck and I think you can get a bit closer this year to the European spots.
Heinze looks a decent partner for Nagy hope they click and get the goals you have been lacking. Bit of luck and I think you can get a bit closer this year to the European spots.
Some good deals there. Good luck.
Smalling and McEachran should be sound signings as they won't have to adapt to life in Premier League. Might be the year you break into the top six
Another job offer, Schalke are currently 12th in the Bundesliga after 11 games. I imagine it would be fun in the German leagues but not right now, I have a job to do.
You can't move, yet!
Heinze looks very promising, will be interesting to see whether he can help Nagy get those goals.
Looks like you have a squad capable of pushing on this year, good luck
Cheers fellas and Merry Christmas all!
You can only leave Stoke if you get sacked.
What a season so far! We sit in third position after 23 games, only losing three of those games. Everything seems to have clicked, the defence is conceding very little goals and we have had some very big victories throughout the season as well as some amazing turn arounds. I could be even higher up in the table had it not been for 8 draws, usually coming in spurts. Brilliant results against the top 6 teams have also seen us prosper, our record against them being W3 D3 L1. Things are definitely looking up, with maybe the chance of a birth in the Champions League next season. What an achievement that would be!
I wasnt too bothered about this competition yet again as it puts too much strain on your squad early on in the season and I dont really have a big squad. I played fringe players in our 2nd round clash with Peterborough, losing 2-0.
The third round put me up against my own feeder club Barnsley and we dispatched of them with relative ease winning 3-0 away. Then we came up against another lower league team in the form of Barnet (A), where we won 3-0 and progressed into the fourth round. There we will face fellow Premier League team Aston Villa.
Fabian Delph He has yet again been my best player so far this season earning an average rating of 7.40, contributing 7 goals and 4 assists.
Chris Smalling The new signing at the Britannia Stadium has added needed solidity to the right back position and now is attracting enquiries from the like of Barcelona.
Ryan Shawcross Five times consecutive Fans Player of the Year, Shawcross is still the main man at the back of my defence and Englands too.
Andras Nagy Well wow, has he come alive this season or not?! He has already surpassed his league goal tally from last season, currently sitting on 11 goals.
Expensive flop Roberto Firmino just wasnt performing which meant I didnt play him ahead of Fleck, this then led to him moaning about not playing often. I told him he had been rubbish and he wouldnt play for the foreseeable future, which angered him more. I transfer listed him for 9.75M and only days later, struggling Inter Milan matched that with the full amount up front. I snatched them up on the offer and he duly left in the January window. I bought no one in the transfer window even with the departure of Firmino as no one really took my fancy.
Even the assistant thinks I'm a legend for that come back.
That was a great comeback, but an even greater start to the season. Surely not a top 4 finish? Would be brilliant progress if you made it!
Morocco just offered me a job.
No thanks.
Excellent start to the campaign. Could be quite tight at the top if the clubs around you win their games in hand. KUTGW
Cheers mate, update to come...
Nagy's certainly doing his part That's a great run of form, highlighted by come from behind wins - shows the commitment your team has!
An outstanding season here, 5th position but it could have been so much better! We were sat in third for the most part of the season but two consecutive losses to teams around us pushed us down. Even so, only being pipped to 4th on goal difference to a very strong Man City side is some achievement. I have now finally completed my first goal of breaking into the top 6, earning me 3rd place in the Manager of the Year award.
Helping us on our way to 5th was the outstanding goal scoring record from Andras Nagy, getting his highest ever tally of 19 league goals.
Another great performance by the team in this competition, making it all the way to the final but for the second time this season getting beaten by Man City. They won 2-1 in the final and to be honest we didnt really show up and they deserved to win.
Fabian Delph He was amazing for me the whole season and during the latter part of the season scored three important goals to ensure our spot in the top 6.
John Fleck Wasnt so good for the first part of the season but absolutely turned it on in the second half of the season, earning himself a place in the Team of the Year and also coming runner up in Football Writers Association Player of the Year.
Andras Nagy As mentioned earlier he had his best season so far contributing 23 goals, definitely what I have been missing in previous seasons.
An absolutely brilliant season! Everything seemed to click this season and we went on amazing winning runs beating teams we would have lost too last season. Our record against the old top 6 was a decisive factor. If wed have won the FA Cup the season would have been even better! As for next season I need to bring in more quality in depth so I can challenge in Europe. I also feel its time to start blooding some youngsters into the team, therefore Ill be looking to do that more often.
In other news it is rumoured that Peter Coates is going to sell the club to another board member but before he leaves, Britannia stadium is to be increased by 8 500 seats taking the capacity up to over 45 000.
PREMIER LEAGUE: 5TH (Champions Arsenal)
LEAGUE CUP: 3rd Round (Winners Man City)
FA CUP: Final (Lost vs. Man City 2-1)
EUROPA LEAGUE: Real Madrid (3-2 ET vs. Tottenham)
CHAMPIONS LEAGUE: Barcelona (2-0 vs. O.Marseille)
Brilliant season. Look strong defensively and scored a few more this year. Good to see Nagy starting to fulfill his promise. GL in Europe next year
Unlucky on missing out on the top 4!
So close to Champions League qualification! And so close to winning the FA Cup! Stoke have become the bridesmaids of English football!
Still a really credible season though
Ooo so close twice.
So unlucky there to miss out on CL football, but the fact you've broken through the Big Six is an achievement in itself
Baby steps. At least it gives you a chance to win the Europa before you become a CL fixture.
Give me nagy now!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great season and a good foundation for next year when you will push for CL qualification.
Cheers guys.
Onwards and upwards!
Great season
Also nice to see Nagy have that breakthrough season and repay the faith you showed in him.
Now to take Stoke to the next level!
Great season
Finally breaking into the Europa and then a push for the Champions League next season possibly?
Should have a good European run to avoid CL groups of death.
Media Prediction: 7th
Board Requirement: Europa League Qualification
FA Cup: 6th Round
League Cup: N/A
Europa League: 1st KO Round
Its not really been a busy transfer window for me, with no notable transfers to comment on. Only three players have come in but all are young players with a lot of potential. No established players came into the team as I felt that there were no players available for good value. However, I have high hopes for the youngsters, Markus Mayer (1.7M), Philipp Roth (1.2M) and Tonci Piric (free) they will still add something to the squad but I dont expect any immediate fireworks. Piric was one of the options I had last season when looking for striker and when he became available for free this season I simply had to. Even if he doesnt perform Im pretty sure Ill be able to sell him on for a profit. Mayer is a defensive midfielder with the potential to be better than Elm and it looks like he will have to start the first game of the season with both Wilson and Elm out through injury. Finally Roth, bought from Man Utd, is a young attacking mid who will provide cover for Fleck and hopefully he will progress well.
Last season, I forgot to mention this young signing from Portugal, who has the potential to be an amazing left back. At just 15 he was already playing for the U21s.
This season I looked through my reserves and youth squad, realising that it was very bloated. I duly went on a spree of releasing a massive amount of players with little potential.
Im still quite pleased with the players from last season but cant help but think I should have made at least one big signing. Maybe a player that will just light up the league but sadly I couldnt find such a player. The youngsters in my squad now though are very good and all bodes well for the future.
Players such as Fleck, Delph and Nagy will again be integral to my season so they better showcase the same form they showed last season.
There has been some quite important events within Stoke City this pre-season. Firstly, chairman Peter Coates has left the club and replacing him is another board member Keith Humphries. He has also taken with him 20M in which we have to pay 85K per month for.
The club has also undertaken yet another stadium expansion of 8250 extra seats taking the capacity above 40K, costing the club approximately 11M. The expansion will be completed at the end of September.
Expansions are always good ...any interest in nagy this pre-season?
Meyer and Peixoto look exceptional - I really think they can contribute immediately, even if the latter is only 16! Piric looks good too, albeit a bit on the slow side. Still, your squad is gearing for a Champions League spot push!
1st Leg
Stoke City – 6
Andras Nagy (1)
John Fleck (9, 43)
Robert Huth (17)
Dennis Heinze (79, 88)
Partizan – 0
An emphatic victory here, which all but saw us qualify for the group stages, Nagy with a goal in the first minute to pick up where he left off. From then on it was an onslaught with Fleck and Huth getting in on the action, Heinze rounding the scoring off with two quick goals.
2nd Leg
Partizan – 2
Milos Dobric (6)
Lucas Cataldo (25)
Stoke City – 2
Ryan Shawcross (81)
Andras Nagy (85)
The tie was well and truly over and therefore I played all the fringe players and youngsters. It started to worry me when they scored two inside the first half and I thought they were mounting a comeback. I didn't want to let that happen so I brought on some real quality just to make sure, Shawcross and Nagy getting two late goals.
An interesting draw in which I should probably easily qualify from, the only challenge expected to come from Sporting CP from Portugal.
Group Stage Draw
Group C
Sporting CP (Portugal)
Stoke City (England)
Steaua Bucharest (Romania)
Kayserispor (Turkey)
I reckon you'll go through, maybe even top the group.
No holding back in the first leg.
Good luck in Europe, you've got a good chance of going far
Good group draw, you should go through fine. Some very good prospects you brought in too. Best of luck.
Should get through that group comfortably.
The Europa group shouldn't cause too many problems. Might even get the chance to give the youngsters some playing time. Meyer and Peixoto are good finds, they both look to have bright futures.
Some nice signings, all look pretty decent. Couldn't turn down Piric on a free and Peixoto has class, despite his young age - he'll develop into a top player.
Also, great European qualification - should see you get through the groups without too many problems.
Cheers everyone! Looks like I've got a lot of pressure on me to qualify now. Can't wait to finish work and start my assault on Europe.
Just been offered the Bayern Munich job, no thank you!
Oh and the stadium expansion is completed - 44990 capacity.
Lol, not the right time at all to jump ship. I agree with the previous opinions, it would be disappointing if you didnt qualify out of that group!
I was wondering how big Stoke was and whether there were enough people.
Stoke-on-Trent has a population of around 240,000 and the club also pulls fans from neighbouring Newcastle-under-Lyme (population around 75,000) given the town doesn't have a club anywhere near Stoke City's level. The thick people of Stoke and those that live in Burslum (sic) are the ones that support Vale.
There are also two major universities (Staffordshire and Keele) so there are a good few thousand students that make up the population who are unlikely to support either club.
Just to quickly say that I'm really enjoying this read. Interested to see the way your tactics change. Is this because of the players you bring in, or to try and confuse the AI? Good luck Stoke!
I'd like to see a left-sided sweeper tactic with offside traps.
Sporting CP 0
Stoke City FC 0
A bore draw but a decent result against the toughest side in the group, a valuable point away from home.
Stoke City 3
Dennis Heinze (71, 93)
Andras Nagy (78)
Kayserispor 2
Dogan Sivrikaya (9)
Morgan Schneiderlin (55)
This was a game I was expected to win comfortably but to my surprise they took an early lead, later doubling their advantage. I was fuming with my side and made some harsh changes which clearly worked when we came back to win 3-2 with a 93rd minute winner.
Stoke City 1
Ryan Shawcross (89)
Steaua Bucharest 0
This was another tough game but luckily we came away with a win, courtesy of a late winner from Shawcross.
Steaua Bucharest 0
Stoke City 3
John Fleck (32, 64P)
Lee Wallace (81)
A far stretch from the last game, this time we absolutely dominated the game with 58% possession. With this victory we secured our place in the 1st Knockout Round, even with two games to go!
Stoke City 2
John Fleck (50)
Robert Huth (80)
Sporting CP 3
Fredy Montero (16)
Joao Pereira (31)

A disappointing result but it didnt really matter as I had already qualified for the next round.
Kayserispor 0
Stoke City 5
Tonci Piric (4)
Darnel Situ (8)
Dennis Heinze (74, 83)
Robert Huth (88)
I played my back up team in this game and I was shocked when we came out 5-0 winners away from home. They certainly had something to prove!
Stoke City 13pts
Sporting CP 12pts
Steaua Bucharest 5pts
Kayserispor 2pts
A good solid showing in the group stages for us but some of the performances were questionable, especially the first game against Kayserispor. Leaving it late like that is not acceptable and if we do that against better sides, we wont be so lucky.
1st Knockout Round:
AZ ALKMAAR vs. STOKE CITY FC
2nd Knockout Round:
AZ ALKMAAR or STOKE CITY FC vs. GALATASARY or OLYMPIQUE LYONNAIS
A relatively easy draw in the first round but if I progress through that one it will be a tough game against either Galatasary or Lyon. If we are in a good run of form leading up to the games I have no doubts about out quality to progress.
Glad to see you're through to the next round of the Europa League, a great run is certainly possible with the squad you've got
The first round shouldnt be too much of a hassle, but the 2nd Round looks like a tough, especially if you get Lyon!
Nice work topping the group, I bet that Kayserispor home tie was exciting!
Looks a nice first round draw, Lyon looks a tough one on the horizon though.
Galatasaray wouldn't be a breeze either.
I can't wish you luck against Galatasaray I'm afraid .
You should get through against AZ but you'll get to see how good you are against Galatasary or Lyon
Should be fairly tight against AZ then a likely tough encounter if you get through against Lyon.
It's been tough this season and we currently reside in 8th place, mostly down to the amount of draws we have had. All of the draws coming in our 15 game unbeaten run that was much needed after the poor start we made. I've lost the last two games which saw me drop a few places down the table, these being my games in hand too, so wins in those games would've meant 4th place. Overall a disappointing showing in the league so far but one positive I can take from it is the amount of goals that I have conceded, very little. Andras Nagy is again within the top 5 goal scorers in the league with 12 so far.
Well, despite playing a second string side for the most part of the competition I've managed to make it all the way to the final. On the way I've beaten, Nottingham Forest, Arsenal, Burnley and Derby in the semi-final, beating them 5-2 on aggregate. This great run has been down to key performances from Dennis Heinze, scoring 6 goals so far. I will now play Sunderland in the final on Sunday 4th March.
Only one game into the famous cup competition, we played Watford – easily dispatching of them 3-0. The fourth round draw wasn't so kind to us, drawing Liverpool at the Britannia.
I made one signing in the January transfer window, out of favour Tottenham player Mauro Formica coming in for 2.1M . Hopefully he will add more quality to the depth of the squad and help us in our push for a Champions League spot. And how about this for his first goal after coming on as a sub on his debut.
Right now I feel the squad is coming together nicely, I just need to add some very good players and stop catering for players that haven't been performing. I need a second central midfielder to partner Fabian Delph and I'll probably have to start looking for replacements to Huth and Shawcross. Another key striker is probably needed too if Heinze doesn't start performing in the league because he does alright in cup competitions.
Andras Nagy – He has already scored 16 goals this season but has since hit a rough patch of form and hasn't scored in a while.
Dennis Heinze – As mentioned previously, Heinze has done very well in the cups which has meant his goal tally is the same as Nagy's, 16. But of these 16 goals only 2 have come in the league so he needs to start scoring more in the league.
Ryan Shawcross – The reason why we have conceded so few goals in the league, no one can get past him.
Robert Huth - Like Shawcross, he is a tribute to our great defensive record.

If Nagy and Heinze both hit form at the same time watch out Barclays Premier League!
I certainly think you will finish higher than 8th, Europe looks a very real possibility and 4th place is still there for the taking so hopefully the strikers start hitting the net a bit more consistently to cut out those draws as your defence looks mean. Good luck
Very tight league, if only a few of the draws had gone your way instead. Still think you can make Europe
You can easily take 5th it's just about getting the results.
Slow and steady though!
Another great season in the league for Stoke City FC, consolidating another 5th place finish but still some way off that elusive fourth spot. However, we never really looked like mounting a challenge for fourth as our record against the top 4 was quite poor. Here are the results for the last part of the season, as you can see we struggled to put a string of wins together.
Yet again, Nagy was pivotal in our strong finish with 24 goals in the league coming second in the goal scoring charts, well behind Aguero. This game against Bolton was a great match for him, scoring 4 goals in the 5-0 victory.
CHAMPIONS: Man City
RELEGATED: Bolton, Bristol City, Ipswich City.
Well what a farce this was. As you are aware we came up against AZ Alkmaar in the first knockout round and I had high hopes for the clash. How wrong was I? The first leg finished 0-0 and was the scrappiest match I have ever witnessed. Both teams struggled to make any clear chances and the match was bound with several fouls and misplaced passes but at least we didnt lose. The second leg couldnt have been worse though, could it? Yes it was, again it finished 0-0 even after extra time and it was another terrible footballing match. Penalties would decide who progressed and progressing was AZ winning 5-3 in the penalty shootout, John Fleck missing the first penalty. Worst moment of the season by far!
FINAL: Fiorentina 0-1 Chelsea
I had made it to the final against Sunderland and I expected it to be a very tough match but again we were touted as favourites to win. A goal in the 27 minute from Formica reaffirmed our favourite tag but a goal from young striker Furman right before half time levelled the scores. The second half was very much even but a Smalling foul inside the box gave Furman the chance from the spot to equalise. He duly did and put Sunderland in the lead with only 10 to go. We could not find and equalising goal and Sunderland were crowned Carling Cup champions. Yet another final we have lost.
FINAL: Sunderland 2-1 Stoke
We had already played a massive amount of games this season and our FA Cup progress only added to that amount. A fourth round tie against Liverpool ended in a 1-1 draw which meant a replay at Anfield. It was to my shock that we went there with a second string side and smashed them 5-0, playing this second string side in hope of getting knocked out to decrease our workload. Man City came next in the Cup and a 0-0 draw again led to another game. However, we lost this one 2-0 and bowed out of the FA Cup, finally.
FINAL: Charlton 1-3 Man City
Ryan Shawcross We had the third best defensive record in the league and it was mostly thanks to stand out performances from the captain.
Chris Smalling Another key member of our defence, responsible for our great defensive record.
Andras Nagy Yet again another record breaking season for Nagy, beating his own record for goals in a season with 29. He also amassed 100 goals for Stoke this season.
Fabian Delph A great performer throughout the season, chipping in goals and assists in abundance.
An average season overall but one with lots of room for improvement. We simply committed ourselves in too many competitions this season, playing 60 games in total and my squad couldnt cope when it mattered. Next season Im hoping for a better showing in Europe whilst again consolidating out strong league position. To do this though Im going to need a consistent striker to play alongside Nagy and also another midfielder as Cairney and McEachran just didnt perform this season. Ive also been looking at signing this amazing 23 year old American keeper, David Morris.
La Liga: Barcelona
Ligue 1: Olympique Marseille
Bundesliga: Borussia Dortmund
Serie A: AC Milan
Eredivisie: PSV
Champions League: Real Madrid 1-2 Barcelona
Europa League: Fiorentina 0-1 Chelsea
5th place is a good effort, I think in the end the amount of games you played maybe took their toll.
Nice run in the League Cup but will you maybe look to sacrifice that competition or even the FA Cup next year?
Good season from Nagy aswell notching 29 goals and I particularly enoyed you putting out the reserves at Anfield and winning 5-0
Another decent season.
Well done on another good league finish. Looks like your luck run out in the cups though; penalties are not your friend!
Such a pity about Sunderland.
It's a very strong season again, Premier League is by far the toughest league.
Strong season and not far off that CL spot. Being involved in Europe is very tough and that seemed to get to the team in the end.
Good league campaign and unlucky in the league cup too. Was expecting a better run in Europe though. A couple of signings in the summer and you may get a bit closer to the CL spots. Only 5 points off so definitely getting there
Cheers guys!
I played pretty much the whole day today, well I say played - more looking for that elusive amazing partner for Nagy as well as a better centre mid.
United States of America 1 (4)
Erik Pope (60)
France 1 (3)
Mbaye Niang (16)
A dream come true for the most unlikeliest of nations in this World Cup! Any country celebrates a world cup victory for days on end but the USA will be celebrating for some time to come, pulling off a remarkable upset.
Youd be forgiven for thinking that the US had an easy run in to the final, however that was not the case as they pulled off several upsets against the likes of Brazil and Mexico after topping a group containing Turkey and Argentina. They did much better than the likes of England who bowed out in the group stages with yet another lack lustre performance on the biggest stage.
France made their way to the final with victories over Chile, Australia and Spain a much easier run in compared to their fellow finalists.
It was an early goal from Mbaye Niang that kick started the final, a deftly executed first time volley on the edge of the six-yard box, typical of the French Striker. France continued to dominate play with the likes of Yann MVila and Rolland dominating the midfield. That was until former PSV but now Liverpool striker Erik Pope equalised after a horrible back pass and mistake from Koscielny, gifting Pope a tap in. It was very much a game on edge until full-time and even throughout extra-time there were little chances made.
It all came down to penalties now and Jonathon Spector knew that if he scored and Rami missed the US would triumph. Spector emphatically smashed the ball into the top corner, putting all the pressure on Rami to score. Rami stepped up, composed himself before striking a weak effort straight at Morris.
The whole of USA erupted into a mad frenzy and ecstasy of emotions, they were crowned World Champions!
In the wake of all this most countries chose to move on from their current managers and reputable Stoke manager was approached by three clubs for the head job. Nigeria, Australia and England are all after his services but it is thought that Hurst will reject the opportunity, rather focusing on building his Stoke City side.
Sorry, I meant three national teams.
Media Prediction: 5th
Board Requirement: Europa League Qualification
FA Cup: 6th Round
League Cup: N/A
Europa League: 1st KO Round
Upcoming Fixtures
I was looking to make big moves in this transfer window but none of that prevailed. Anybody that I wanted would have cost me more money than I was willing to spend, maybe I'm just tight. I did however; bring in two players – Younousse Sankhare (5.75M) a centre mid who has already played in England with Wolves and Southampton. Timo Horn (FREE) coming in as a back-up keeper as Daniel Bachmann's contract had expired, hopefully he doesn't mind not playing very often. I would have liked much more activity in this transfer window and I was close to deals with Nuri Sahin and other top players but it was not to be.
Outgoing were the likes of Josh McEachran (4.8M), Tom Cairney (2.7M), Phillip Roth (1.8M) as they all failed to impress in the past few seasons and it was time for them to move on. Several players also left on frees, the biggest name being Daniel Sturridge as well as some reserve team players.
TOP EPL TRANSFERS | PAULO – ARSENAL (25.5m)
I wasn't happy with how the transfer window had gone so far but I was still reasonably happy with my squad. I am still confident that we have the potential to progress far in the Europa League, whilst still doing well in the league and if all goes well in Europe I might be able to attract better players in the future. Again I'll be relying on the likes of Fabian Delph, Ryan Shawcross and Andras Nagy to push us forward but maybe new signing Sankhare will shine.
These are two additions to my first team from my youth team, who will feature at some point during the season:
Michel Serrano
Greg Cowlishaw
The club is now the 11th most valuable club in England which says a lot about our ability to overachieve, pretty much challenging with the top money spending clubs on a small budget. We are still the 7th best club reputation wise, with the old top six above us but all that is needed is a great run in Europe.
Nice work so far Hursty .
Hope you get that run.
Sankhare looks a decent purchase and I think Serrano has a lot of promise.
GL for the coming season. I think this is the year you break into the CL places.
Still got four current Stoke players seven years in.
1st Leg
Stoke City – 4
Andras Nagy (3)
Mauro Formica (30)
Marc Wilson (69)
Ryan Shawcross (74)
Dinamo Bucharest – 0
An easy victory to put is in the driving seat for the second leg. Nagy got us off to a flying start and a good result was to be expected from that point onwards. Formica, Wilson and Shawcross put the tie out of reach with the other goals.
2nd Leg
Dinamo Bucharest – 1
Andrei Bota (62)
Stoke City – 3
Tonci Piric (16)
Dereece Upcott (37)
Marc Wilson (67P)
A young team started this game and they showed us what they can do. Young striker Piric put us into the lead with a good finish, followed by a rather lucky goal from regen Upcott who has been at the club for 5yrs but I don't expect much from him. Wilson got his second goal of the round with a penalty just after Bucharest scored their only goal.
I was handed a very easy draw this year as I was a first seed so this should see me easily progress through to the 1st KO round.
Group Stage Draw – 1st Seed
Group C
Stoke City FC (England)
Parma (Italy)
FC Salzburg (Austria)
Lech Poznan (Poland)

Really should be looking to progress in Europe but if you are going for top 4 you might have to sacrifice Europe this year.
Great draw. Hopefully you can both go through that group and reach the CL spots in the league. Certainly think that is within your grasp
Should get through that group comfortably. Only Parma should pose a threat.
Should be a good european season.
Great going so far this season as we sit in 4th position, challenging the top 4 sides all season especially in the 3-1 victory over Chelsea. The games that we have lost though have been to sides in the bottom half of the table such as Cardiff, Wolves and Wigan, teams we shouldnt be losing to. Again our defensive form has been the stand out so far this season, even with the injuries and suspensions weve sustained Huth, Shawcross and Situ all being out for a lengthy period of time. This has meant 16yr old Greg Cowlishaw has had to step in, doing very well even picking up a Man of the Match award. However, the sole standout performer this season has been Andras Nagy scoring 19 goals in the league so far and we still have 15 left to play. Im hoping that I can remain in this 4th position and take a Champions League spot.
All went well in the group stages with me progressing in 1st with 16 points, only dropping points against Parma (1-1) in the first game of the group. Massive wins against both Salzburg and Lech highlighted my dominance in the group. The 1st KO Round puts me up against German side Stuttgart who will pose a significant challenge but one that I will be favourites for. If I live up to my favourites tag I will then come up against the winner out of Sporting CP and Rangers FC, Sporting a team that I played in last seasons Europa League Group Stage.
This competition wasnt on my bucket list for this season, too many games was not good for my team last year and Im not going to risk it this time round. We lost to rivals WBA 1-0, despite a good showing from a young team.
Im not too sure about my views on this comp and whether it is on the cards so Ill just play it as it comes. West Brom were again our opponents, much like in the league cup the result was 1-0 but this time we came out victors, Knezevic scoring a late winner.
Not much to comment on here other than my back-up GK moaning about a lack of games and requesting for his contract to be terminated. The most annoying player Ive had so far and no one would buy him therefore I agreed to terminate.
Andras Nagy What a season he is having so far, 19 goals in the league and 30 in all competitions and its only February. He went through an amazing spell, scoring 27 goals in 21 games. He broke his own record in January.
Fabian Delph This season he has been marred by injuries but that hasnt stopped him from putting in some key performances and 12 assists.
Ryan Shawcross He is always on this part of the update, isnt he? Same story about Shawcross, a beast at the back.
Jose Peixoto Suffering from a hip injury at the moment but when he has played hes been great, exciting times for the 18yr old.
Nice win over Chelsea!
Excellent form from Nagy.
Great stuff from Nagy and well done on getting through the Europa League group so well. Hopefully you can go on and claim a CL spot with 4th or better
Looking good so far, Nagy has really come of age.
It's all about Nagy this season!
Stoke in the title race! Whatever next!
Good work, fingers crossed this'll be the year of Champions League qualification. Nagy's been quite some player.
Excellent work.

Good Sports
NFL pros Matt Cassel, Von Miller and Mark Sanchez put down the pigskin, traded their uniforms (of the Vikings, the Broncos and the Eagles, respectively) for suits and ties, and filled The St. Regis Monarch Beach for the Athletes First Classic gala and golf tourney benefiting the Orangewood Children's Foundation. Some 700 notables attended the soiree, where they enjoyed wine and drinks while rubbing elbows with the football stars. There were also luxe goods to bid on, and a trip to see the Broncos' home opener sold three times over. But that was just the start of the giving. VIPs Glenn and Mindy Stearns, and pro bowler Wes Welker were honored for their philanthropic efforts, and a moving speech from former foster youth Jacob Lindamood scored $300,000 for the nonprofit's scholarship fund before guests hit the green the next day. Now that's a real game changer. –Photos by Ann Chatillon

This is a homework problem for my real analysis class. It is problem 13.1 from Mattuck's Introdution to Analysis. The question reads:
Suppose F(x) is continuous on some open interval I and c is a maximum point inside this interval. Is it true that f(x) must be increasing immediately to the left of c and decreasing immediately to the right of c? Proof or counterexample. (Note: A constant function is considered to be both increasing and decreasing.)
My friend and I have been attempting to find a counterexample. We figured a function that begins oscillating infinitely many times near c but converges to c would work. We're having difficulty constructing such a function out of elementary functions so we think we will have to define it in another way, piece-wise using receding intervals. I have no clue how this would look. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I am starting a study on automatic telescopes and the correction of their periodic error. I found two ways of correcting it : with a CCD camera and manually by recording the error. I was wondering if it could be possible to model the error by a periodic signal in order to add it to the entry signal then correct it with a low-pass filter or an other filter ?

Wilson Joins the AVCA as Official Sponsor of the Sand Volleyball Championship
Sporting goods manufacturer signs on as the "Official Volleyball of the AVCA Sand Volleyball Championship"
Lexington, Ky. - The American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) is pleased to announce Wilson Sporting Goods Co. as its newest partner. The two parties have come to terms on a three-year agreement that will name Wilson the "Official Volleyball of the AVCA Sand Volleyball Championship."
The new partnership will be celebrated at the upcoming AVCA Convention, Dec.14-18, in San Antonio, Texas, where Wilson will provide balls and carts for all the U.S. Silica Sand Court educational sessions. Wilson will also provide the sand volleyballs as well as carts and bags for the AVCA Sand Volleyball Championship.
During the term of the agreement, Wilson will provide the AVCA with sand volleyballs to be used by the AVCA for community outreach purposes and grassroots development.
"Wilson is honored to partner with the AVCA and provide them with the best volleyballs for their sand volleyball tournaments," said Enrico DiMario, Wilson's Global Business Manager for Volleyball.

The AVCA has always been an integral part of growing the sport of collegiate volleyball, and we feel privileged to be associated with the AVCA as we look to grow this sport together."
"We are excited about making Wilson part of the team that is helping to launch Sand Volleyball as a collegiate sport," said AVCA Executive Director Kathy DeBoer. "While interest in this new sport is high and we anticipate robust growth in the coming years, right now the numbers are small and resources are minimal. Wilson's investment is important and will help the AVCA, the institutions with varsity programs and our other partners put together a quality championship."

Let $C,D$ be two presentable categories, $F,G : C \to D$ cocontinuous functors and $\eta :F \to G$ be a morphism of functors. Is it always true that the full subcategory
$\{x \in C : F(x) \xrightarrow{\eta(x)} G(x) \text{ is an isomorphism}\}$
of $C$ is presentable? In fact I only want to know if this category is complete (which happens to be the case in many examples; where of course the inclusion to $C$ doesn't have preserve limits). If necessary, you may assume that $F,G$ preserve finite limits.

WACO (January 7, 2013)—A Department of Public Safety trooper made a routine traffic stop early Monday in Central Texas and ended up arresting a man who's been a fugitive since 2007.
The trooper pulled over a 2001 GMC pickup with a defective stop lamp at around 6:35 Monday morning on Loop 340 in Bellmead and after investigating, identified the driver as Jose Lucio, 26, despite the man's denial that was his name, DPS spokesman D. L. Wilson said.
Lucio was named in two aggravated sexual assault of a child warrants issued in 2007 in connection with the sexual assault of a then 7-year-old girl in Fort Worth and had been on the run since they were issued, Wilson said.
He had been in Mexico, Wilson said.
Lucio, who's listed in online McLennan County Jail records as Jose Lucio-Mares, was held Monday night on bonds totaling $50,000 on the two charges and without bond on an immigration detainer.

6 Popular Songs You Didn't Know Have Dark Hidden Messages
The drawback of making a subtle point in a song about the human condition is that nobody pays attention to subtle points in songs. Your average listeners aren't priming their ears for the moment when an artist makes the perfect lyrical metaphor about unrest in the Middle East. They just want to dance.
That's why people keep thinking that "Born in the USA" is a patriotic song, and why most people don't get the subversive message of ...
#6. "This Land Is Your Land" by Woody Guthrie
What You Think It's About
With its simple but catchy melody, "This Land Is Your Land" sounds like about the least offensive song ever written. Songwriter Woody Guthrie adapted it from an old American folk song, and the lyrics boil down to the almost childishly innocent message of "America is wonderful, let's share it, everybody!"
Yep. Just an all-around great patriotic song upholding the blandly positive idea that everyone is welcome in the USA. Nothing to see here!
"Yay for the section of Earth that we live on!"
What It's Really About
"This Land Is Your Land" is, for lack of a better term, a song about communism. The opening lines are a bit of a giveaway, but only if you know the background: "This land is your land/This land is my land." OK, well, that doesn't have to be referring to the idea of public ownership of all property. Maybe "The invisible hand of the free market will dictate who is the rightful owner of this land" just didn't fit into the rhyme scheme.
But in fact, Guthrie was a fairly outspoken communist sympathizer. And the song wasn't written just as a folk song about America and its people. Guthrie specifically wrote it as a rebuttal to the song "God Bless America," a tune he considered overly patriotic and sappy. He didn't think it represented average, working-class Americans like himself and their feelings about the government.
Via Wikipedia
"Kill the fascists, and the barbers too while you're at it."
Lyrics that didn't make the final version of the song that really hammer the point home were later found by Guthrie historians. As in hammer and sickle? Political jokes are hard. Anyway, here are the lyrics:
One bright sunny morning in the shadow of the steeple,
by the relief office I saw my people.
As they stood hungry,
I stood there wondering if God blessed America for me.
See, it's because the old emblem for Communist Russia was a hammer and- oh, fuck it.
Now that would have put a different spin on things. At some point Guthrie cut those lines, presumably figuring that a subtle approach would be best to get the point across. As this list is going to make abundantly clear, it totally doesn't work that way.
#5. "The Star-Spangled Banner" by Jimi Hendrix
What You Think It's About
Hendrix's performance at Woodstock is now a thing of legend. Hendrix took the stage as the very last performer of the concert, and he tore through a two-hour set at an ungodly hour of the morning, leaving nothing but burnt guitars and melted hippie faces in his wake.
The most memorable moment in his set list is his impromptu rendition of "The Star-Spangled Banner" in the middle of an extended jam. Throwing in psychedelic noises and guitar flourishes, his version of the American national anthem has become synonymous with the Woodstock festival, and in turn has come to represent an entire generation of counterculture Americans during the '60s who just loved to get off on peace and love.
And in turn, counter-authority teens in the late '90s who just liked their fashion.
What It's Really About
It's easy to miss, you know, because it's an instrumental, but hiding just under the surface of Hendrix's iconic take on "The Star-Spangled Banner" are various references to the horrors of war. Things start out pretty standard, but when he hits the "... and the rockets' red glare" line, Hendrix goes into full-on freak mode. Those crazy sounds aren't just Jimi making noise for the hell of it; those are the "rockets" referred to in the song dropping and exploding. And after that? Screams. Later he adds in some machine gun noises for good measure.
Still not convinced? Listen closely about a minute later, when Hendrix plays a portion of the musical piece "Taps," a song traditionally played on a bugle at United States military members' funerals. Hendrix just took you on an Apocalypse Now-style tour through war. You heard bombs explode all around you, you heard the screams of the people killed, you got fired on by a machine gun and then you died. All with the backing track of "The Star-Spangled Banner." And probably a shit-ton of acid.

#4. "I Love LA" by Randy Newman
What You Think It's About
If you've ever seen a shitty movie set in Los Angeles, you most likely have heard Randy Newman's ode to his hometown, "I Love LA," probably being played alongside a cliche shot of the Hollywood sign. Or if you've ever attended a major sporting event in the city, you've heard the song whenever the home team scored a goal or won a game. Every single time. Whether it's the Lakers, the Dodgers or the Kings, you're hearing that damn song. Meaning it's been playing in LA pretty much nonstop for the past 30 years or so.
Given the title and the occasional chorus of people shouting "We love it!" in response to Newman listing off various LA landmarks, it would naturally lead a person to believe that this song is an anthem about how Los Angeles is a fantastic place. And you're right!
The sand is cocaine!
What It's Really About
Just joking! You're wrong! Like many of Newman's other misunderstood songs (the lone exception being "Short People," which he totally meant), "I Love LA" is intended to be satirical and sarcastic. It's all about the city's contradictions. For every mention of the city's idyllic setting, like its mountains and trees, Newman offsets it with a scene of those less fortunate, like a homeless man "down on his knees."
"We love it!"
Not even the extremely upbeat-sounding section of shouted street names is safe from Newman's sarcasm. At first listen, it doesn't seem like there's anything particularly critical about it, but locals will notice that these street names point out the dichotomy of LA better than any other lyric can. The streets Newman names range from the richest neighborhoods in LA to the absolute poorest. Basically, the song takes you from Brad Pitt to MC Hammer in a single verse.

Why is it that my system dies when multitasking(it is happening from 11.10) on Ubuntu11.10(Unity), Kubuntu 11.10(KDE) and Deepin Linux which is based on 11.10(Gnome-Shell) The thing is that I thought with 12.04 I would get performance like I used to get on 11.04 on which everything used to run fine without any lag or hiccups.
The same lagging(Browser starts to stutter, increased delay in the launching of dash and applications)is happening on 12.04 http://i.imgur.com/YChKB.png and http://i.imgur.com/uyXLA.png . I believe that my system configuration is sufficient for running Ubuntu as you can check here http://paste.ubuntu.com/929734/ .
I had the Google voice and chat plugin installed on 12.04 so someone suggested that I should remove that and see if the performance improves but no such respite(I am having this on multiple operating system based on Ubuntu 11.10 as I have mentioned above). On a friends suggestion Ran Memory Test through Partition Magic and my system passed that fine.
One thing more that I would like to know is that why when I have 2Gb Ram and 2.1GB swap does my system starts lag and run poorly when Ram consumption goes 500+. If you require anymore information I will gladly provide it.

The 10 Most Deranged Sidekicks of All Time
Some sidekicks are known for their blind loyalty (Tonto), their bizarre choice of clothing (Robin) or their ability to harmonize (Garfunkel). Other sidekicks are known primarily for lurking in the background and weirding everyone the hell out.
A look at the 10 lackeys, hype men and right hands that make us more than a little uncomfortable, as well as a diagnosis of what' probably wrong with these tortured souls.
#10. Tattoo from Fantasy IslandOn TV' Fantasy Island, Herve Villechaize played Tattoo, the boot-licking human poodle to Ricardo Montalban' Mr. Roarke.
Tattoo' duties included:
- Ring bell / "De plane!"
- Listening to his boss explain the plot of this week' episode
- Getting his boss drinks
- Boot licking
Tattoo lived to serve his boss, even sleeping on the floor at the foot of the bed (in case any snakes got in the room). He can also be credited with starting a national obsession with midgets that has resulted in midget-tossing parties, the character Mini-Me and Ryan Seacrest' career.
In this very special intro to Fantasy Island, Tatoo shows a little moxy, asking his boss why he never gets his. Roarke responds with some lame metaphor about candy shops that he made up, totally ignoring this cry for help from his tortured slave.
DIAGNOSIS: Dysfunctionally intense focus on needs of his boss, bacterial infection on tongue from shoe shine.
#9. Jerome from The Time
What series of events has to happen in your life for you to become The Guy That Holds Morris Day' mirror? Meet Jerome, Morris Day' preening sidekick/valet/underling. In addition to taking up valuable space in the luggage compartment of The Time tour bus, Jerome' duties apparently include:
- Holding up a huge mirror so Morris Day can check himself out while he sings.
- Brushing the lint off of Morris Day' jacket while he sings.
- Dancing around a little bit while Morris Day sings.
- Holding up the huge mirror again.
In this video of Morris Day and The Time doing their thing, notice how quick Jerome is with Day' mirror. Also, we can't help but point out that Jerome, by dedicating all of his time to perfecting his Morris Day-related responsibilities, has rendered himself completely unemployable.
Honestly, if things don't work out and Jerome gets fired, what other job could he possibly be qualified to perform? Brushing lint off the Queen? Holding up a huge mirror for a chief justice of the Supreme Court? He'd be perfect for those jobs, if they existed.
DIAGNOSIS: Symbiotism, HPD (Habitual Preening Disorder).
8.(tie) Twiki from Buck Rogers
In the 25th century, mankind will improve the human condition by creating sophisticated robots that will follow people around like puppies, but instead of being cute and making adorable yelping noises, they will look terrifying and make horrible stuttering bleeps.
But, why wait for such startlingly practical advances when you can travel to the future with Buck Rogers in the 25th century, which features Twiki, a short be-mulleted robot sidekick.
Twiki' robo-do could be considered cute in a sort of robo Maddox Jolie Pitt way, but Mel Blanc (also the voice of Bugs Bunny) gives Twiki a voice like a Texas oil baron with throat cancer. Also, Twiki has only one volume setting: just a little louder than seems appropriate.
In this clip from the TV show, Twiki crudely propositions a female, short robot with an even worse vocal tic than his. They go off to have short-robot sex. Buck laughs and has another drink to help blot the image of child-like robots having sex from his mind. The audience of teens and children have no such recourse.
DIAGNOSIS: Tourettes Syndrome, autophilia.
8.(tie) Farnsworth Bentley
After Flavor Flav and his giant clock necklace struck out on their own to pursue the riches of ironic fame, hip-hop was in need of a borderline-pathetic clown, prince sidekick specializing in prop comedy. Enter Farnsworth Bentley and his umbrella.
To get an idea of just how troublingly and depressed Bentley must be, it' important to remember that the man over whose head he holds an umbrella got his start as a sidekick. Sure Diddy is now a mega-mogul, but when he first came on the scene, he was just the skinny guy who said "Take that, take that, ha!" in the background of Biggie' songs.
Basically, imagine if Robin had killed Bruce Wayne, taken all his money and then hired you to hold an umbrella over his head. Such is the lot of Farnsworth Bentley.
To see just how mean-spirited their relationship is, skip directly to the end of Diddy' music video for the song "DIDDY." He and his back-up dancers pull the old stop-dancing-and-look-at-the-one-guy-who'-still-dancing-like-he'-an-asshole on poor old Bentley.
Even sadder is that Bentley appears to be embracing the shackles of his vicious enslavement, trying to sell his own line of umbrellas.
DIAGNOSIS: Stockholm Syndrome.
#7. Chaka from Land of the Lost
So you're trapped in another dimension, surrounded by dinosaurs and other monsters. What' your first move?
That' right, you take a hairy, easily-excitable, hideous-looking ape boy named Chaka under your wing so you have someone to slow you down, eat all of your food and contribute nothing. Good. Now that that' out of the way, you have plenty of time to get eaten by dinosaurs. And don't think that Chaka won't help you in that department. He' as useful at attracting dinosaurs, as he is useless at everything else, which is to say, extremely.
At the 6:16 mark of this entire Land of the Lost episode, Chaka shows what an annoying brat he can be to travel with, screaming way louder than is necessary that he' hungry, even though a two-headed monster is within ear shot and is presumably hungry himself.
DIAGNOSIS: Poor self-image, hirsute, fecalphelia.
BONUS FUN FACT: Chaka could have been played by a young Clint Howard (Ron Howard' brother), without requiring any makeup for the role.
#6. Rene from Aqua
"I am the Candyman - coming from Bountyland!"
Rene Dif is the Yul Brynner-looking dude in Aqua who shot to superstardom with the words "Come on Barbie, let' go party" in Aqua' hit "Barbie Girl." He' actually huge in Denmark; a bald-headed Flavor Flav for the Northern European bubblegum dance scene. For anyone out there who was stuck for a reason not to ever travel to Denmark, you're welcome.
And, while we're sure it' great to have someone in your band who can rap like a muppet, we'd imagine that the rest of Aqua has to get pretty tired of having to keep Rene away from kids all the time.
The Aqua video for "Lollipop (Candyman)," in which Rene is oddly menacing and otherworldly as The Candyman, singing:
Come with me, honey,
I'm your sweet sugar Candyman
Run like the wind - fly with me to Bountyland
Remember kids, even if he says he' the candyman, you shouldn't let him take you to bountyland. Just ask him to drive you straight home after he makes good on that trip to the candy store he promised.
DIAGNOSIS: Danish.

Sir Regarding the 2,500 scientists who warn of climate disaster, by the time large numbers of people agree on something, the truth might have moved on. Just ask the 364 economists of 26 years ago who so infamously advised Margaret Thatcher. Fortunately for the country, she listened to the two sceptics, Alan Walters and Patrick Minford. In the long run, minority views often prevail.
