CSS Best PracticesNovember 17, 2003
I've been thinking about how to put this together for a while, so I think I'll open it up to everyone for contributions, then build an actual resource out of it somehow.
Here's the idea: a CSS Best Practice is a one sentence action statement, a "thou shalt" or "thou shalt not" (paraphrased, of course) that highlights a specific issue, be it browser compatibility, code integrity, or whatever else can actually be considered factual (instead of opinion). It's followed by a paragraph that goes more in depth about why or why not someone would want to follow the action, with links to further reading. This is the stuff that, if you know it ahead of time, makes your design process much less of a headache.
The final resource would be a single-page collection of learned knowledge that might otherwise be spread out too much to be useful. Consider it a crib sheet for designing with CSS, one page that's full of valuable guidelines.
Here are some of the ones I've started with:
- Build and test your CSS in the most advanced browser available before testing in others, not after.
- If you build a site testing in a broken browser, your code begins relying on the broken rendering of that browser. When it comes time to test in a more standards-compliant browser, you will be frustrated when that browser renders it improperly. Instead, start from perfection and then hack for the less able browsers. Your code will be more standards-compliant from the start, and you won't have to hack as much to support other browsers. Today, this means Mozilla, Safari, or Opera.
- Don't use quotation marks around paths/URLs.
- When setting a background image, or loading in an imported file, resist the urge to surround the path with quote marks. They're not necessary, and IE5/Mac will choke.
- Try to avoid applying padding/borders and a fixed width to an element.
- IE5 gets the box model wrong, which really makes a mess of things. There are ways around this, but it's best to side-step the issue by applying the padding to the parent element instead of the child that gets a fixed-width.
- Combine selectors.
- Keeping your CSS light is important to minimize download times; as much as possible, group selectors, rely on inheritance, and reduce redundancy by using shorthand.
That's just a start. There are a ton at the back of my mind, but I'm having trouble fishing them out. This is one of those instances where you need to be doing it at the time to remember all the specifics. Add your own in the comments.
Reader Comments
Also: has this been done elsewhere? I haven't seen anything quite like it; the css-discuss Wiki - http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ - seems to be a far more in-depth version of the same, but it's too weighty. I'm looking for something simple, snappy, and light in detail. Just the facts, ma'am.
If using Fahrner image replacement (http://www.alistapart.com/articles/fir/) set media to "screen, tv, projection" so voice browsers and printers show something useful.
If your CSS file is long, organize similar rules together and use comments before each section. This may help you keep track of things for future redesigns/updates.
Here's one:
Never name your classes "arial15centered" or "smallbluefont".
One of the most important benefits of CSS is being able
to change the look without having to change the HTML.
So what will you do when your boss comes and tells you
he doesn't like his titles centered? or that he wants the
fineprint in red instead of blue? If your clases had been
named "title" and "fineprint" your HTML document
wouldn't have worked as is.
Use functional names for your classes, avoid words that
describe how they look.
Believe me… I've seen such aberrations more often than I thought possible.
Here are a few contributions:
1. Use :link and :visited instead of "a" to set link styles. Use :link:hover and :visited:hover to set link rollover styles.
Details and rationale: http://dbaron.org/css/1999/09/links
2. Use image replacement methods that are compatible with non-graphical browsers (should include explanations of best image replacement methods and potential pitfalls).
3. Test pages with different fonts and sizes. Prefer relative sizes and em units, so that layouts scale to fit larger and smaller fonts.
A "best practices" document should also include preferred methods of setting font sizes, though this is such a quagmire that I'm not sure what the best practice might be…
Sorry, I keep thinking of more.
4. Place your CSS rules in an external stylesheet, so that they do not need to be downloaded again each time a new page is loaded.
When you declare a font-family, include at least one semi-ubiquitous option for each major OS (Windows, Mac OS, Unix), and always end with one of the generic font keywords (serif, sans-serif, etc.)
Matt - point 1 is perfect, but 2 and 3 wouldn't fit. They're too mired in opinion, second-guessing, and statistics. I'm looking more for quick shots that make life easy, over going into the philosophical discussions that plague font sizing and image replacement.
Always define attributes alphabetically. It may seem nice to put your left/right and top/bottom together, but it makes your CSS more readable for other people and it severely reduces the chance of duplicating property definitions.
The best practice for font-size, in my opinion, is to use what your readers have their browsers configured for. I guess loads of people will disagree with me on that one though, as it seems there's some kind of a phobia regarding 1em/100% font sizes with designers.
- Use decent markup. Try and stay away from  and so on, when  would do nicely.
Matt said:
"Use :link and :visited instead of �a� to set link styles. Use :link:hover and :visited:hover to set link rollover styles."
I wasn't aware that these were valid pseudo classes? Isn't it easier to just used a:link, a:visited, a:hover and a:active? As long as you specify them in that order then the hover class will work on visited links too.
My tip would be, if you need to use an IE.x box model hack, the High-Pass filter method is the most elegant. Use only one link element to link to a basic stylesheet for old browsers and one import rule to import another main stylesheet. In this main stylesheet, use the high pass filter to import your're separate ie5 and normal stylesheet.
1) Reduces the number of link and @imports on your pages.
2) Keeps all "hacks" (ie IE5 only code) separate so it can be easily removed at a later date
3) Solves the FOUC bug.
eric, keeping everything alphabetical might appear nice, but makes it a lot harder to see the various inheritance issues etc when it's not ordered in a semi-logical, document-structure related way…
Patrick, I mean attributes, not classes. e.g.
.className {
border:1px solid black;
instead of
.className {
border:1px solid black;
As far as ordering elements and IDs, I have a system I use but it's just a habit, nothing I would submit for a best practice.
How about:
CSS isn't a magic bullet
It is still possible to create slow, inaccessble pages that are a pain to maintain when you use CSS to style them. Think carefully about the needs of your audience and remember that most people don't have the same computer setup that you do, so strive to avoid designs that require a specific screen resolution, excellent vision, or certian fonts.
If that's too cynical then:
Remember to specify units
CSS requires you to specify units on all quantities such as fonts, margins and sizes. The behaviour of particular browsers when no sizes are specified should not be relied upon.
Don't specify font heights in pixels
Font heights in pixels prevent Internet Explorer users from reasizing your text, which may make your site unusable for many visitors. Use a different units system for text instead, for example % or em.
When setting an element's 'color' remember to set a 'background-color' as well.
Although it is tempting to use CSS to make a hyperlink look like anything BUT a hyperlink… don't go overboard!
Luke: "Isn�t it easier to just used a:link, a:visited, a:hover and a:active?"
This causes problems if you have something like this in your HTML:
Miscellaneous
In Mozilla and other modern browsers, this will be selected by a:hover and a:active even though it is not a link. If you don't want this, then you need to include the :link and :visited pseudo-selectors.
These and other pitfalls are explained in detail at the page I linked to previously:
When in doubt, hide the StyleSheet(s) from Netscape 4.x.
The major problem with the NN4.x generation is that it reads some CSS, ignores other, and… reads some the wrong way.
With older browsers like Mosaic, Netscape >3.x, etc. you don't have to worry about how it reads your StyleSheet because it won't even try.
NN4.x, however, will read the StyleSheet, but usually not correctly.
Provide special styles for this specific browser family, or simply make it ignore the entire StyleSheet or the parts of it that cause problems.
An easy way of hiding and entire StyleSheet for NN4.x is my adding media="all" to the link reference.
A specific part of a StyleSheet can be hidden by closing it in (and by that excluding for media that don't understand) with @media all {}.
The "rely on inheritance" rule is an important one, and frequently overlooked in my experience. People often add redundant classes to their HTML, such as
p.foo {…}
#bar p {…}
would serve better. It does take a little more mental juggling, though, and you can get into tricky context situations.
Hyperlinks should always be underlined unless they are in a group of clearly-defined navigation links.
- Favor Relative positioning over Absolute.
It's tempting to place every element in your design using absolute positioning, but when you add new elemets between two absolutely positioned objects they will ignore the flow.
If you Absolutely must (pun intended), try to stick with Absolutely positioned top-level "containers" with Relatively positioned elements inside them. That way, when you insert new elements in there the other elements in the container will flow normally (usually to the right or bottom of new elements).
With some editorial uh… editing, of course.
Sorry, but I have to disagree Sergio.
You can create amazing effects by placing an absolute positioned block inside a relative block with left and top set to 0. I think you are forgetting that an absolute or relative block resets any sibling's origin to the parent block's top left corner.
So don't limit positioning without giving some serious thought to it.
And I was going to say what MikeyC said regarding backgrounds and colors but he beat me to it… (although what he said should have been said long ago.)
I would propose that when creating a style sheet, you should always start with basic elements such as h1, p, ul, etc. It's a simple start, any author would recognize those rules (which helps user style sheets and therefore accessability), , and it makes sure you keep the inheritance simplified. This is something I learned recently making my latest design much simpler.
[Dave, I love this idea! A simple guideline which can lead to advanced CSS techniques, incouraging both veteran and rookie authors to share and learn off one another… Why reinvent the wheel, right?]
Hello. I'm not sure if this fits into the "best practices" thing, as it might be specific, but
* Hiding CSS from NN4 _and_ IE4 should be a best practice. IE4 is often ignored both in testing and in hiding.
Either you take care of it properly if the project allows, or you hide from both.
* Hiding inline CSS on XHTML. I think Mr. Clover's Evil Mangled Comments Hack is a must under this condition.
Stephen: I was referring more to the tendency to overuse the absolute positioning as the swiss army knife of layout-ing. I didn't mean to dismiss absolute layouts as a tool. But I often see designs that would work perfectly fine with relative positioning but use absolute (perhaps out of laziness). Guess I didn't explain it well.
I'm sorry Sergio, I think I came off a bit too harsh…
I completely agree with you on your point that absolute positioning can be hazardous to any design when the content has not been carefully considered (what will change, what won't change, etc)… In the long run relative positioning is definately more reliable.
But that rule cannot be guaranteed. Many designs (such as my site's menu system) could not function without nested absolute positioning. So while I agree with you, its based on too much opinion for this instance.
Doug Bowman explains it better than I ever could (he gave me the idea!): http://stopdesign.com/also/articles/absolute/
Agree with Roger Johansson. A best practice should include an indenting style, so when you get to someone else's css you find your way easily.
I like the following, borrowed from Bowman:
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - */
selector {
–TAB– color: #FFFFFF;
Also agree with making all css internal (that's why I use - - - - instead of —– so it will validate)
1. Use comments and use them well
2. Document your CSS
3. Order your rules and selectors consistently
These days stylesheets can be over 500 lines long and even if you are the only one working on your site's CSS, revisiting an uncommented stylesheet can be a nightmare. Just where are the rules for the navbar?
I find judicious use of comments to mark the beginning and end of each section of a stylesheet to be a godsend. Through bitter experience I have found that not writing down the order in which rules appear can waste countless hours at just the wrong time.
Usually I start with general styling of HTML tags, continue with links, lists and forms and then follow this with contextual rules for each div in the page, done in the order in which it appears in the HTML. I then finish with classes and miscellaneous items. I don't know if this is the best way but at least it's consistent.
I'd like say: Many thanks for this Article and all comments. I've printed it and I'll spend all the time that will be required for "drink" - a very strong portuguese expression for learn :-) - the CSS lessons, tips and tricks on it. And sure, I'll visit all posted links.
Thanks and thanks!
To elaborate on the original #4, on combining selectors and keeping the CSS "light":
Write valid, structural markup (HTML, XHTML) and try to select on the HTML as much as possible before adding classes and IDs to the markup. This will increase an understanding of inheritance and provide greater flexibility in future revisions.
Start with valid and well-structured HTML.
My thoughts:
- Use specific IDs (i.e. div#idname) where possible. This isn't required for elements and classes
- Add comments where appropriate, it will help later in the understanding of what you have done.
- List styles in the following order: IDs, elements, classes. Within this list alphabetical unless cascade flow does not allow (i.e. LVHFA)
- Keep a consistent order of properties.
"… resist the urge to surround the path with quote marks. They�re not necessary, and IE5/Mac will choke."
But M$ has killed it. Sure, no reason to choke it but do we know that won't cause a problem for anything else?
Be cautious in what CSS items you group together.
Grouping can make your CSS harder to maintain, especially in situations where you are not the only one that is going to edit a given CSS file. Other people working on the project may not notice that you have grouped an item. I'm not suggesting avoiding grouping all together, but be cautious in what you group. I would suggest not to group distinctly different items together (for instance, headers from different DIVs). Grouping within "sections" is understandable (and probably good practice).
Let me refer to an article by Peter Paul Koch which was published on Digital Web some days ago: http://www.digital-web.com/columns/keepitsimple/keepitsimple_2003-11.shtml
P.S. Digital Web seems to be down for me, but I'm pretty sure this is the right URI.
Grouping is dangerous: http://www.annevankesteren.nl/archives/2003/11/15/css-grouping
A few simple ones:
1. Do not use underscores in class and id names. Some browsers will choke. See http://devedge.netscape.com/viewsource/2001/css-underscores/
2. When accessing stylesheets in the head of the document, if you use @import, also add a link rel=. This should eliminate the Flash of Unstyled Content. See http://bluerobot.com/web/css/fouc.asp
3. Always validate your CSS. See http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/
Here are two other suggestions:
Before starting off with creating a *.css file, draw a complete structure of the website, which contains all elements and their interdependencies. This may not be helpful at smaller pages (with less content or easy structure) but is inevitable in bigger redesign projects. Do not start to change/create HTML or CSS before you have such a drawing (using *idunno* Visio or Powerpoint or any none-M$-product ;)
Do NEVER EVER use numeric characters in your classes and element titles. Bad example:
span.tree123 {
… blablabla …
If this leads to an error with some of the browsers, it's hard zo find the error in a large CSS- file (if you don't know they're allergic to numbers).
It's illegal to start an ID with a number.
I know that and still fell in to the trap just yesterday…
Oops… just saw that it has been posted. Should have refreshed my browser!!
Most of our sites begin with an overall layout of blocks, correct? Three-column with header or what have you. I have found it very useful to begin my stylesheets with asimple and indented structure that outlines just the layout-related selectors and rules for the template. For example (rules removed for clarity, indents faked badly):
body { }
—- #header { }
——– #logo { }
——– #topBar { }
———— .accessoryNav { }
——– #mainNav { }
——– #subNav { }
——– #wrapper { }
——– #content { }
——– #error { }
———— .contentBlock { }
———— #processNav { }
——– #help { }
—- #footer { }
…to whatever level of specificity you find useful. You might want to put h1 in there, for instance. I then follow this structure with some sort of reasonably ordered set of selectors and rules that happend to be more oriented toward colors, borders, backgrounds, fonts, and the like, as well as highly local layout.
This (putting the general layout at the top, indented) exposes the general HTML structure in the CSS, which helps you visualize the former while you are working in the latter, and also helps to separate your thinking about layout from your thinking about decoration, if you're into that sort of thing.
"Hyperlinks should always be underlined "
What's the use of text-decoration:none if it's improper to use it?
In the beginning we had no choice but to underline hyperlinks, now css gives us a few choices. I don't think the average user is so bad at recognizing a non-underlined link so long as it contrasts enough with the surrounding text.
�� resist the urge to surround the path with quote marks. They�re not necessary, and IE5/Mac will choke.�
I haven�t seen IE5/Mac choke when double quotes (aka inch marks or double primes) are used around file paths. Single quotes (aka foot marks or primes) do confuse it though.
Jim - people are used to seeing hyperlinked text underlined. It is easy to catch visually and is pretty standard. For decent usability, you should offer people what they expect. Some people prefer using bold text or something else, but that doesn't come across the same way.
Most of these aren't "best practices" though. O well. Things like indentation styles should be decided upon on an organization by organization basis.
- For images and objects: Set the height and width of objects with CSS, rather than width and height attributes.
- Code for CSS scroll-bars should be kept in a different file as to prevent the main stylesheet from failing validator checks.
- When an element appears only once in a document, use an ID insteado of a class.
- Use CSS child-node selectors instead of classes on nested elements.
- Wrap the contents of the body in a div or span so if you decide to move to a fixed-width or contained style, it will be MUCH easier.
- When specifying titles, use h1, h2, h3, etc.. instead of divs with the class "title". Use paragraph blocks or blockquotes instead of text-containing divs.
- Avoid horizontal margins and padding on floated elements, IE tends to render them incorrectly.
- Floated elements should appear before non-floated elements in the page source. Use floats for layout whenever possible. Use clear on footer elements, even if the floated block does not reach them.
- Always end a list of fonts with a generic class.
- Avoid using alpha-layer transparency, drop-down menus and other IE only CSS.
That's about all I can think of, right now.
"The best practice for font-size, in my opinion, is to use what your readers have their browsers configured for. I guess loads of people will disagree with me on that one though, as it seems there�s some kind of a phobia regarding 1em/100% font sizes with designers."
Sure would. This would imply that I would want the *same* font size on every document I encounter on the Web. No way.
Also, the default in my main browser (Safari) is 16px Times at 96dpi. That seems about right. But what if the designer chooses, say, Verdana? That's a very chunky font which looks quite different at 16px.
The assumption being made is that my (non-existent) preference here is independent of typography and independent of the design. I can't see that that's true.
Notice I can't specify a "preference" for every font with that control. But that's no problem. The default I mention is actually an MS standard that Apple have acceded to. Again, there's no problem: it doesn't matter whether the W3 sets the standard, or Microsoft, or Apple. What matters is that the designer and I have a common point of reference.
That's what good about standards: they provide a common point of reference and so make communication easier. Let's say the designer decides that a basefont of 13px Verdana is appropriate to his design. Well, **because he knows what my settings are likely to be** he can set that on the body of his document indirectly by specifying something like 80% Verdana.
I'm happy for him to make that judgment. If the page doesn't suit, I'll re-size *after* I've seen it.
If I *really* needed to I could use that control to make a rough alteration to all documents before I see them. That's good: but there's no need to get hung up it.
The spec seems to assumes the designer will be setting a basefont appropriate to his document.
Similarly, as Joe Clark points out, the spec assumes the designer will be styling hyperlinks:
In each case, let's go with the spec. Let's not have every page on the Web look the same.
Here's a practical tip: when you start working with the CSS for a page, or when you're doing major changes to existing CSS, make all css internal to avoid any caching problems. You also reduce the risk of confusing yourself by editing the wrong file and wondering why you can't see the changes.
I disagree with a few of Motekye's items:
- For images and objects: Set the height and width of objects with CSS, rather than width and height attributes.
That doesn't make any sense. The width/height of those elements is usually important, irregardless of CSS or not and they often need to maintain those dimensions apart from the CSS.
- Code for CSS scroll-bars should be kept in a different file as to prevent the main stylesheet from failing validator checks.
I'm probably going to get jumped on for this one, but what's it matter if a stylesheet is valid? So long as browsers ignore styles they don't know you are good to go. People's obsession with validity is puzzling to me (unless you need to send your XHTML through a parser, then that's a different story).
- When an element appears only once in a document, use an ID insteado of a class.
Not necessarily a good idea either. If you are positive that that element is only going to appear at most once on every page, then yea, go for it. But often times you don't always know.
- Wrap the contents of the body in a div or span so if you decide to move to a fixed-width or contained style, it will be MUCH easier.
That's a good one, for now. Since most modern browsers will allow you to style the BODY tag apart from the HTML tag, that is becoming less of a must.
- When specifying titles, use h1, h2, h3, etc.. instead of divs with the class �title�. Use paragraph blocks or blockquotes instead of text-containing divs.
Hate to be picky, but that falls under the category or HTML practices, not necessarily CSS.
- Floated elements should appear before non-floated elements in the page source. Use floats for layout whenever possible. Use clear on footer elements, even if the floated block does not reach them.
That's a bad practice because you should apply your CSS after you have the HTML and not have to put it the other way around.
- Avoid using alpha-layer transparency, drop-down menus and other IE only CSS.
I think it is perfectly acceptable to use browser-specific CSS, be it IE scrollbars, Mozilla border-radius, etc. Use what you have available if they fit the situation. And Moz does have support for alpha transparencies. (Not sure how drop-down menus are IE-only CSS.)
Sorry to be the devil's advocate.
And next link for Best CSS Practices.
Find a formatting/indenting style that you like and stick with it. It will make your CSS files more consistent and easier to maintain.
Even better would be if everybody could agree on the same style… :)
#39, Motekye: "Use floats for layout whenever possible."
Floats always seems to require so much more from me when doing layouts, especially when it comes to IE.
My mantra has long been: Floats are evil… even though I still use them, but only for "floats" and not for layout.
Lately, I've been doing layouts using relative/absolute positioning, sort of like described in Doug Falby's "Flexible Layouts with CSS Positioning" at http://www.alistapart.com/articles/flexiblelayouts/
By crafting sensible sections/containers within a page, they can, for me, easily be moved around and styled independently.
Thus, my advice will be:
"Know as much as you can and wisely choose the layout/styling technique thats best for your project. ."
#47 - Jim: "What�s the use of text-decoration:none if it�s improper to use it?"
Its there in case you want to use it. You can just as easily use the following to follow best practices and allow for visual style:
– code –
* Links
p :link {
text-decoration: none;
border-bottom: 1px dotted blue;
* Mimic Moz: Acronym tags in IE for useability
acronym {
border-bottom: 1px dotted #AAA;
cursor: help;
– code –
That way, you still have the underline, but you've got a little more control over the formatting of it. You might also want to remove the underline in navigation menus, which is common practice.
My tip?
- Don't style the scroll-bars! Ever! People know what colour they are already. Most even set the colour themselves, using the UI widgets of their selected OS (most likely windows). Colouring them will mean they have to activly look for them rather than glancing. They're part of the window, not part of the page, so leave them alone.
border-bottom: 1px dotted blue;
Why not? That's certainly one option among many. It's probably best not to indicate a link *only* by colour, but there are many solutions to that. As Joe Clark pointed out in the link I gave, the styling options are in the spec.
But I don't think this is the kind of thing Dave was looking for. I *think* this is the kind of thing he meant:
* * *
Suggestion: You don't need to use text-transform: uppercase on the first letter of a word that you've used "font-variant: small-caps" on, provided you use normal "title case" in your HTML.
Reason: You get true uppercase with "font-variant: small-caps" anyway wherever you use a capital, eg. with the "N" in "News", so there's no need. But if you do use "text-transform" on "first-letter", you get a doubling effect in the current version of Safari:
* * *
I've seen just that on occasion, and, as Hyatt says, it does look ugly. Apparently, it will be fixed in the next release. But why use "text-transform" where you don't need to anyway?
Regarding all the comments about font-sizes and types, my tip is to design your website however you want. Then, when you've got it looking pretty and are in your testing phase, flip over to Mozilla.
Open the preferences window, and go to "Apperance > Fonts". At the bottom, there's a checkbox which says "Allow documents to use other fonts". Un-check this. This will cause your default font to take over from any font set, and is a quick way to test what will be viewed for that poor user who doesn't have Arial/Verdana/whatever-standard-font on they're system.
Then, while still in Moz, hit Ctrl and + or - a couple of times. This will change your font-size. If you're site doesn't go wacky when you change the font-sizes, you're on to a winner.
Also, [in true jedi styliee] be mindful of exactly what you're using. As Micheal says, why use "text-transform" when something else might work better for you? Try to ensure you're not doubling up on code to do something simple. I add another phase to my CSS development - trimming. Once I've got everything looking pretty and working, I try to "trim the fat", as it were, so I don't clog my pipes up. Then I re-test. You might wish to do the same.
> People�s obsession with validity is puzzling to me (unless you need to send your XHTML through a parser, then that�s a different story)
So it's only worth worrying about if you expect anyone with a web browser to visit the site ;)
Remember kids, a browser without a parser is called telnet.
(As a serious point, I'm surprised with just how much I disagree with here. A lot of these "best practices" are just arbitary favourtism for a particular way of working. Oh and as for underlining links; my feeling is that underline was a poor choice of link highlighting in the first place, since it makes them less legible. I've also yet to see someone fail to grasp that something is a link just because it's not blue and underlined; I think the link pattern recognition in most people's brain is better than that. In fact, given the choice, I'd say blueness is a more important link quality than underlines, and removing either is the least usability problem that most websites have. It's far harder, for example, to guess what the main navigation is suppoed to be on most sites. In this case people often use graphics in place of text and follow none of the "this is a hyperlink" conventions such as underline, or consistent text colours)
In reply to igraham:
I think you might be missing the point of useability with regards to linking.
Its fine to ignore best practices for links if your intended audience is as web-savvy as yourself, or even more so. Otherwise, stick to what works.
Having helped family member get online and surfing, it still surprises me how the simplest things can throw them. I had a friend hit a web portal about antiques, and while surfing got stuck on a page. There were easily more than ten links within the body copy, but the page didn't have any menu structure. They'd styled the links without an underline, and used a colour similar, but a few shades lighter, than the body copy. These were completely ignored. I had to physically show my friend that they were links.
These best-practices, or arbitary favourtism as you term it, are what will eventually make the web useable for everyone. More and more people are starting to follow these conventions, which have in one way or another been agreed upon to get the message across regardless of media. The big companies, such as sprint and adobe, are following suit. These sites are borrowed from and based upon by lots of designers, who will hopefully look at the code and follow suit too.
Praise be to the day when all sites are useable on all media - TV, PC, PDA, mobiles, etc - regardless of physical abilities.
"I�ve also yet to see someone fail to grasp that something is a link just because it�s not blue and underlined; I think [most people�s] link pattern recognition … is better than that."
I agree, of course, as you'd expect. It's easy to miss a wider context for these things - as with font-sizing. (I may want to move *a range of values* in one direction or the other with the so-called "preference" without wanting to move to *a point*).
I think there would be many cues here - more than we are probably aware of or even could list: such things as linguistic context, for example.
It seems to me that modern browsers' support for the "hover" pseudo-class is a good thing. I suspect people sometimes work partly on the basis: if you prod it and it responds, it's a link. :-)
How about just "Consider your audience."
This will dictate which browsers to whom you need to cater (NN4x, screenreaders, WebTV) and which design choices to avoid (such as underlining all links, small fonts, etc.).
And, regarding comment 18's point about the "name" attribute, this has been removed from XHTML 1.1 in favor of "id":
Motekye wrote: - For images and objects: Set the height and width of objects with CSS, rather than width and height attributes.
What is the advantage or rationale for that?
I don't know of any advantage and it removes useful info from the HTML.
Oliver Schwarz wrote: Do NEVER EVER use numeric characters in your classes and element titles. Bad example: span.tree123
Why? I know you can't *start* a classname with numerals, but what browsers have trouble with numerals in the middle or end?
Here's a tip to add: When troubleshooting what is covered by a CSS selector or by inheritance, add a stand-out color (like red or orange) to the rules to help you see what is affected by that selector.
and "Just Say No to Colored Scrollbars…" they should go the way of BLINK and MARQUE. Useless.
I should say that my point about arbitary favourtism and my point about links weren't really suppoed to be connected. I see the argument for always having links blue and underlined, and while 'm all for stes being as transparent as possible, I just don't think that it's a correct argument. For a start, I think that underlining harms legibility, especially where there are multiple links, long links, or a list of links. For example, underlines make t difficult to see descenders so that characters like i and j are hard to distinguish. Using border-bottom is actually better in this context as the border sits below the descenders and so doesn't interfere with the text so much. As for blueness; even as a non designer, it's clear to me that no designer is going to make her links blue if blue clashes with the other colours of the site. Instead, a typical approach is to make the links a similar (or, in the non-technical sense, complementary) colour to other site elements (such as the navigation bar), yet have high contrast with the surrounding non-lnk text. So my "best practice" statement on links (which is really as design "best practice" statement would be:
Make navigation elements easilly identifiable
All navigation elements, including site navigation, and links within body text, should be easilly identifiable when casually scanning the page. In the case of navigatioon elements, this means placing the elements in a conventional place such as the top or side of the page, and ensuring that the elements are styled in such a way that it is obvious they are navigational elements (this might be acheived by appealing to a common user interface metaphor such as tabs, or by ensuring that the links appear similar to other links on the page). Links in body text should be styled in such a way to appear distinct from the surrounding text - schemes where the body text and links have similar colours are likely to lead to user confusion. Use of the :hover pseduo-selector for link elements can help to identify them as functional elements which will respond to mouse clicks. If in doubt, the most widely recognised style for links is blue underlined text.
Welcome to the real world, nearly 90-93% of the whole world use IE so if a customer asks me to make him a commercial website or if I run a web-design company, obviously i'm not going to concentrate my efforts on Mozilla/Firebird/"put here your minority and �0.5%? used browser", that would be a stupid movement and an enormous commercial mistake …
Yes, all of us would want a perfect world with blue sky, green grass, a bright sun and a 95% of users using Firebird but the reality is completely different. If you can't see it i'm sorry, wake up!.
PS: And yes, I use and work with open-source software, i work on open-source projects and I try to expand W3C standards on my company and with my friends but i still work primarily with IE because is the browser that 100% of my customers (since 3 1/2 years of projects) use. Call me stupid if you want, i would prefer to say "smart".

5. Frank Kimmel Moves To Win-Tron Racing
Mooresville, NC
Few racers have the winning record of Frank Kimmel. When he ended up on the free agent list at the end of the 2013 season, a season that marked his 10th championship in the ARCA series, it was only a matter of time before Frank was scooped up. Soon after the confetti was cleaned up, the announcement was made that Frank would drive for Win-Tron Racing in 2014. But how hard is it to move from one team to another?
"For me, it's really not as much change as you might think," explained Kimmel about his move to Win-Tron Racing. "Win-Tron takes care of the cars much like ThorSport took care of all the equipment. Kevin (Cywinski/co-owner) takes care of the cars and motor side of things and Nate (Thiesse/co-owner) takes care of the business side of things. And I'm going to drive like I did at ThorSport, so my role really remains the same. From here, it's really just sorting out the nuts and bolts of how things work at Win-Tron and (outside of the ownership) who takes care of what."
While Kimmel's focus will remain on the driving duties, there are new personalities to consider. For starters, Kimmel will be working with a new crew chief in 2014—NASCAR veteran chief Jamie Jones.
Jones has crew chiefed for a variety of NASCAR drivers over the years including Terry Cook, David Green, James Buescher, Rick Crawford, and David Starr. He also served as Mason Mitchell's crew chief when Mitchell successfully switched from Roulo Brothers Racing to Empire Racing in 2013.
"I know that Jamie has worked with a lot of successful drivers down through the years. He was taking care of Mason Mitchell's stuff toward the back end of last year and did a heck of a good job with all that, then went to work for Win-Tron at the end of the year. He's been around a while. He's 'old-school' so we'll get along well. He understands what makes these cars go fast. I've already talked with him several times," added Kimmel.

Jason Aldean Reportedly Dropping 'Flyover States' as Next Single
It appears that Jason Aldean isn't quite done bringing the party via his 'My Kinda Party' album. The famed dirt road-lovin' singer is reportedly dropping one more song from the record, 'Flyover States,' as his next single.
According to Ashley Mann's Music Row blog, Aldean spilled the beans at a Grammy nominee party last week, outright confirming that another single is on the way — and naming which one. "'Flyover States' is going to be the next single," he said matter-of-factly.
But the good news doesn't stop there. Aldean shared that in addition to a new single, he's got a whole slew of new music on the way. "A new album will be coming this year. It's coming a little late just because we have an album that won't die on the charts, which is a kind of a nice problem to have," he gushed. "So, we decided we wanted to put out another single off that record and after this, this will be it for this record."
The 'Tattoos on This Town' hitmaker will roll into Orlando, Fla. tonight (Jan. 22) as a part of the second leg of his My Kinda Party Tour. The fun continues on the road through all of February and March, with more dates scattered here and there in the rest of 2012.

It is possible that the main title of the report Astrocytoma is not the name you expected.
An astrocytoma is a tumor that arises from the star-shaped cells (astrocytes) that form the supportive tissue of the brain. Other supportive cells of the brain include oligodendrocytes and ependymal cells. Collectively, these cells are known as glial cells and the tissue they form is known as glial tissue. Tumors that arise from the glial tissue, including astrocytomas, are collectively referred to as gliomas.
The World Health Organization (WHO) classifies astrocytomas into four grades depending on how fast they are growing and the likelihood that they will spread (infiltrate) to nearby brain tissue. Noninfiltrating astrocytomas usually grow more slowly than the infiltrating forms. Infiltrating, or diffuse astrocytomas are more common than noninfiltrating astrocytomas. They are generally more common in men and are most common in the cerebral hemispheres of adult patients. In children they occur both in the cerebral hemispheres as well as the brain stem. Tumors from oligodendrocytes (oligodendrodendrogliomas) are also in the category of infiltrating gliomas and can occasionally be difficult to distinguish from astrocytomas. Some infiltrating gliomas are categorized as mixed oligodendroglioma-astrocytoma (oligoastrocytoma).
Grade I astrocytoma is usually a noninfiltrating tumor. The most common type of grade I astrocytoma is pilocytic astrocytoma which is also known as juvenile pilocytic astrocytoma or JPA. This tumor grows slowly but can become very large. Pilocytic astrocytoma occurs most often in the cerebellum, cerebrum, optic nerve pathway and brainstem. This tumor occurs most often in children and teens and accounts for 2% of all brain tumors.
Grade II astrocytoma is also called low-grade astrocytoma or diffuse astrocytoma and is usually an infiltrating tumor. This tumor grows relatively slowly and usually does not have well-defined borders. It occurs most often in adults between the ages of 20 and 40.
Grade III astrocytoma is also called anaplastic (malignant) astrocytoma because this tumor grows more quickly than a grade II astrocytoma. Anaplastic astrocytoma occurs most often in adults between the ages of 30 and 50, and accounts for 4% of all brain tumors.
Grade IV astrocytoma is also called glioblastoma or GBM and is the most aggressive type of nervous system tumor. It is also referred to as glioblastoma multiforme because of its wide variety of appearances under the microscope. Rarely, non-glial tissue elements can exist in a glioblastoma. The most common variant of GBM showing these additional tissue elements is called a mixed glioblastoma-sarcoma, or gliosarcoma. GBM occurs most often in adults between the ages of 50 and 80, is more common in men, and accounts for 23% of all primary brain tumors.

A higher degree of peace: Graduate peace studies programs
Already graduated college? You can still return to school for a master's or Ph.D. in peace.
While most peace studies programs are at the undergraduate level, at least 76 schools worldwide offer graduate programs. Among Catholic schools in the United States alone, there's amazing variety, including Duquesne University's graduate certificate in conflict resolution and peace studies; Georgetown University's master of arts in conflict resolution; Catholic Theological Union's M.A. in justice ministry; and the University of Notre Dame's Ph.D. in peace studies. These programs often draw students who already have considerable peacebuilding experience.
Christopher Yanov received his master's degree in peace and justice studies from the University of San Diego in 2003. In 2001, after several years of doing youth ministry and outreach to gang members, Yanov started Reality Changers, a San Diego nonprofit that provides academic support, scholarships, and faith-based leadership training to disadvantaged inner-city youth to help them reach college.
He enrolled at USD's Kroc School of Peace Studies (KSPS) shortly after because he wanted to learn practical skills for conflict resolution. Instead, he found the program much more theory-based.
That doesn't surprise Holy Ghost Father William Headley, dean of KSPS. "If there's a common thread among our students, it's that they largely see peace and justice studies as an applied discipline," he says. "These are people who want to put what they learn to work."
Today Yanov is still with Reality Changers, which has expanded rapidly and has raised more than $4.2 million in scholarships for the program's graduates. He also has a greater appreciation for what he learned at KSPS: "When people see what a successful program [Reality Changers] is, they often ask about the philosophy and theory behind it."
Yanov's class of 13 at KSPS included students from Afghanistan, Rwanda, Uganda, and Eritrea, and others with strong international ties. The global perspectives of his classmates complemented his coursework, and the bonds they formed in and out of classes remain strong. "We still trade off e-mails all the time," Yanov says.
The international aspect has been likewise valuable to Shamsia Ramadhan, a master's student at Notre Dame's Kroc Institute for International Peace Studies. (The late philanthropist Joan B. Kroc, wife of McDonald's CEO Ray Kroc, funded the peace studies programs at both schools).
"You get to engage people outside of class on what challenges they've faced and how they've been able to address them," says Ramadhan, a Muslim from Kenya who has worked with Chemchemi Ya Ukweli ("Wellspring of Truth" in Swahili), an interfaith organization in her home country that promotes peace through active nonviolence and dialogue.
Ramadhan doesn't have to go far to compare notes with someone: Her roommate, Myla Leguro, worked for Catholic Relief Services in the Philippines for 12 years on peacebuilding initiatives between Christians, Muslims, and the indigenous population in her native western Mindanao before coming to Notre Dame.
Leguro expects to continue her work with CRS and the Mindanao Peacebuilding Institute after graduation, but she opted for graduate study in order to gain a wider perspective on the practice of peacebuilding and to get more grounded in her own Catholic tradition so as to better engage people of other beliefs.
Perhaps surprisingly, Ramadhan has also been able to grow in her faith during grad school. She recently had a chance to meet with Father Theodore Hesburgh, president emeritus of the university and founder of the Kroc Institute. He told Ramadhan he hoped that her experience at Notre Dame was helping her to strengthen her faith and become a better Muslim-a message she's also received from faculty, staff, and fellow students at the Kroc Institute.
It's a message this peace studies student takes in stride. "People of all religions have something in common: the desire for the well-being of communities," she says.

The 49ers' first-round draft pick is officially under contract.
Eric Reid, the safety drafted No. 18 overall by the 49ers in April, announced the signing through social media. "Beyond blessed! Officially a 49ER!" Reid wrote on Twitter, with a link to an Instagram picture of him signing.
The 49ers traded their first- and third-round picks (No. 31 and No. 74) to the Cowboys to move up to No. 18 to draft Reid, who was an All-American as a junior last year at LSU. He is expected to start at free safety for the 49ers, who lost last year's starting free safety, Dashon Goldson, to Tampa Bay in free agency.
San Francisco now has all 11 of its draft picks under contract. Reid is the 10th first-round pick in this year's draft to sign his contract.

I would still find it hard to eat in public in large groups or in some where unfamiliar. If I get a part time job then I am not looking forward to being invited for a Christmas meal, or something like that. I would probably make an excuse not to go.
pinkparrot wrote:I have this issue over eating in front of people. For me it seems to depend on several factors - physical space, place, whether I'm doing an activity at the same time, amount of people, who the people are, what it is, whether there's any complication over choice of it, how much I need to be saying at the same time and how quickly I need to do it. I have some really good friends who I just can't eat in front of!
Sometimes if I'm at a table on my own it cancels it out. I've had to adapt to some very unusual places to eat through not being able to do it with others!

It is scary, somehow '_' because I imagine that people are making fun of me by saying that I eat alone and I have no friends ! And if I miss my mouth or something like that it's more stressful !
But when I am with my friend I feel very fine and if I screw up something we laugh about it and that's all ^^

The Dolphins lost tight end Dustin Keller to a leg injury in the second quarter of Saturday's game against the Texans and it's looking like they may not be getting him back anytime soon.
Mike Garafolo of FOX Sports reports that Keller is likely out for the season after the injury, which saw Keller's knee shift to a precarious position after taking a blow from the helmet of Texans safety D.J. Swearinger. Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald is hearing the same thing about Keller's outlook and reports that the Dolphins have already started calling around about possible additions at the position.
Losing Keller would be a serious blow for the Dolphins offense since his arrival was cited as one of the reasons to believe that the team would be more productive on offense than they were last season. Long one of the few reliable targets for Mark Sanchez with the Jets, Keller was expected to play the same role for Ryan Tannehill.
Keller is on a one-year deal that he signed with the intent of playing well enough to turn it into a more lucrative and longer-lasting contract before the 2014 season. If the indications about the severity of his injury prove correct, Keller's not going to get that deal and the whole thing will turn out to be an unfortunate lose-lose situation in Miami.

They protest mainly because they feel Muslim brothers are shown in bad light (which is a work of fiction ) but the muslim brothers and sisters are treated badly in real in foreign countries even if it is Abdul Kalam.. Where were all these protests, ban on foreign countries.. They wont simply wont react because the consequences are like a boomerang it will just hit on their own head.. This is why we go amreeka, london..

What Pritish Nandy said or Kamal Hassan wanted to show hsould have been perfectly normal in a civilized country. But as long as these caste and religion parasites who are leaders in this country are there - this country can only go down from here.

For Once, I agree with Shobha De. But not many takes you seriously and reads your article as far as i know. thats because, you also write articles like the one you did in the recent Outlook Magazine about Afzal Guru's Hanging....

Most important blunders in the formation of India:
* Creation of nations on the basis of religion.
* Division of states on the basis of language.
* Different sets of law for followers of different religion.
* Reservations on the basis of caste and not on economic condition.
All these lead to nothing but hatred & mistrust.

Man who allegedly bit off cousin's ear lobe pleads not guilty
STAMFORD -- A Connecticut man accused of biting off his cousin's ear lobe and swallowing it during a fight over loud music has pleaded not guilty to assault and other charges.
Twenty-seven-year-old Emilio Mendoza of Stamford was arraigned Wednesday in Stamford Superior Court and ordered held on $50,000 bail.
The Advocate of Stamford reports that Mendoza's cousin and roommate, 31-year-old Clemente Perez-Ruiz, also pleaded not guilty Wednesday to assault and disorderly conduct charges connected to the brawl. A good portion of his left ear was missing.
Stamford police say the two men were intoxicated and started fighting after Perez-Ruiz asked Mendoza to turn down loud music. Police say Mendoza admitted swallowing the ear lobe.
Mendoza's lawyer said he hadn't seen the police report detailing the allegations and declined to comment.

Number of MVP Awards:
Adis Jugo
Director Product Technology at skybow AG, Chairman at European Collaboration Summit
I am a software architect with 20 years of professional experience in creating software solutions. A long time has passed since my first steps in software development – I've got my Sinclair ZX Spectrum in my early teens, when I was learning programming with Sinclair Basic and Z80 assembler. My first professional, business-suitable software solution, I have built back in 1991, using Borland Turbo C 2.0, on a Intel 80286 based computer with a Hercules graphic card. A lot of things have changed since then – new technologies, new development techniques, new paradigms – but, one thing has remained unchanged: during all this time, I was focused on creating solutions which make user's life at least a bit easier. And, my passion was, and still is, improving software development process in all of it's aspects and phases. I first met SharePoint (actually, I first met Microsoft CMS server, which later became a part of SharePoint Server) back in 2002, and since 2006 my focus is completely shifted towards architecture and development of solutions based on the SharePoint technology. I see Office 365 and SharePoint as products which helps the companies to quickly boost the information workers' productivity, but I also see it as a platform, which serves as a foundation for development of enterprise business solutions. And, this is exactly what I do now – designing, architecting and developing enterprise business solutions, based on Microsoft .NET, JavaScript and, above all, SharePoint.

The Home of Fashion Film and Live Fashion Broadcasting
Report by Lou Stoppard on 17 June 2013.
Martine Rose was looking at the influence our surroundings can have on the way we dress. It's an apt theme for an event like London Collection: Men, where the fashion-fetishising environment caused by the concentration of style fans in one place tends to send everyone into a competitive frenzy that makes them start dressing like peacocks.

Thanks again guys for the lovely feedback! :D
Margee> hmm, perhaps you could try using this unzipping software, called Winzip for PCs( http://www.winzip.com/downwz.htm ) or if you are using MACs, you could try Zipeg ( http://www.zipeg.com/home.html )to unzip the files? Those 2 programs are quite ok when I use them on my own PC or MAC. If these do not work, you could email me you personal email, so that I can email you the files directly. Hope this helps!

I retained Mr. Kibria to represent against some serious charges that would have come with definite jail time and seriously affected/complicated my life and my family.However Mr. Kibria fought hard throughout the entire process to ensure that i would not face the terrible hardships the charges presented and in fact gor a great deal that allowed me to continue on with my life and take care of my family.Above all he provides highly personalized representation and was available to me anytime i needed him and provided clear communication at all times. He and his firm were also extremely affordable. If you need a DC attorney I highly recommend Mr. Kibria and this firm.
He was great the case was imideatelly dismissed. Extremely affordable. Excellent DC criminal lawyer. A must hire if you are in legal trouble in DC.
I hired Mr Kibria to help with me with some serious , complicated, complex and frankly nerve wracking issues. I retained Mr. Kibria and his firm based on his extensive experience and practice in DC.Mr. Kibria walked me through exactly how he was going to handle my case and resolve my situation. Mr. Kibria delivered on all his promises. His services were highly personalized and his communications with me were constant and clear. He was available whenever I needed him. He took care of my issues exactly as he said e would.If you need a defense lawyer in The District of Columbia. Mr. Kibria is definitely the guy to hire!
Excellent counsel. Helped a relative in a very serious situation. Was very engaged and got the results promised.
I hired Mr. Kibria I had a serious charge gave me a excellent price he helped me out through the whole process. I really recommend him. Did a amazing job ! Great customer service.

My recommendation would be to go for the trainer kite as this is the fastest, safest and most economic way of entering into the sport of kiteboarding..... and then take lessons (or combine the trainer with lessons). You mentioned a few models in the 2/3m range and they should be perfectly fine to introduce you safely to the sport. Spend as much time as you possibly can flying the kite... Should you decide to sell it... I am sure you could get at least 50% back.
At your level, I would rule out buying a SLE of any size regardless of the price. For most persons this is just a disaster waiting to happen. You may hurt yourself, someone else, destroy your kite or risk the beach access for other kiters (not a good way to make friends). After you have taken lessons and are not a danger to yourself and other beach users , hopefully your instructor will be able to give advice as to what kite/size kite will work best for you now that you can properly and safely control a 4/5 line kite.

Stretching from Namibia down the west coast of South Africa, the Succulent Karoo is a vast, semi-arid desert, with sweeping vistas, mountain ranges, ancient rock formations, wild coastlines and clouds of stars arching overhead at night.
Home to more than 6,300 plant species, almost half of which occur nowhere else in the world, it is a secret land of weird and wonderful succulent plants (the richest on the planet), among which run an eclectic mix of insects, reptiles, scorpions and arachnids, all adapted to the arid conditions of the region, where moisture is largely gained from dense sea fogs.
The Succulent Karoo is an extraordinary exception to the general species paucity of most arid regions, and is one of only two arid regions in the world to earn hotspot status.
Sadly, this arid paradise is threatened by mining activities, overgrazing and the illegal collection and trade of its succulent plants, leaving less than 30% of the hotspot pristine. Mining has left massive scars on the landscape and overgrazing has led to sheet erosion, species loss and vegetation changes—decreasing the land's carrying capacity. Predicted future threats include
climate change, prospecting and mining by small mining companies and the expansion of the ostrich farming industry.

State Dept. Responds to Domenici's March Hearing Inquiry
(202) 224-7082
WASHINGTON -- A U.S. State Department official has confirmed for U.S. Senator Pete Domenici the importance the agency places on its International Law Enforcement Academy (ILEA) facilities, such as the one recently launched in
The confirmation came in response to Domenici's questioning of Secretary of State Colin Powell at a Senate appropriations subcommittee hearing last month. At that hearing, Domenici sought assurances from Powell that the State Department budget requests would support existing funding levels for the successful ILEA program.
In a letter responding to the inquiry, Assistant Secretary Paul V. Kelly assured Domenici that the State Department believes the work done by its ILEA program is even more important in wake of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
"The Department, through the Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs, intends to continue its support for ILEAs. These institutions are considered as key elements in the international response to drug trafficking and other criminal activity," Kelly wrote Domenici. "Now more than ever, the Academies will play a significant global role in combating not only criminality, but the terrorist elements who often use criminal enterprise to accomplish their goals."
While welcoming the official assurances, Domenici said he would use his position on the Senate Appropriations Committee to ensure sufficient funding is made available to support the future of the ILEA program in Roswell. He has expressed concern that the administration's FY2003 budget request for the International Narcotics Control and Law Enforcement Program, excluding appropriations from the Emergency Response Fund, is reduced from $217 million in FY2002 to $198 million.
"I fully intend to see that the State Department's backing of the ILEA program results in sufficient resources to continue successes at the Roswell campus," Domenici said. "I have already asked that the Foreign Affairs Appropriations Subcommittee again designate $5 million specifically for ILEA in Roswell next year to ensure that it is not caught in a budgetary squeeze if we stick with the administration's recommendation."
As part of the FY2002 Foreign Operations Appropriations Act, Domenici and Congressman Joe Skeen secured $5 million to continue the ILEA program based at the Roswell Industrial Air Center. ILEA training in Roswell was launched in 2001 using $10 million secured by Domenici and Skeen in 1999 and 2000. Domenici has worked to ensure the U.S. State Department continues to support $5 million per year for the length of the five-year ILEA contract signed in March 2001 with New Mexico Tech.
New Mexico Tech has partnered with Eastern New Mexico University-Roswell, Sam Houston University, and the Science Applications International Corporation to begin ILEA training. The State Department now has four ILEAs located in Budapest, Bangkok, Botswana and Roswell. Roswell is the only program that is university-based and offers a degree program. The curriculum at every ILEA has extensive course-work regarding attention to human and civil rights in the practice of law enforcement.

Elizabeth��s film?Avengers: Infinity War?is up for two awards during the ceremony including Best Action Movie!
Elizabeth Olsen made comfort a priority while fetching a healthy green juice at Kreation Organic in LA on Thursday.
Candids > 2019 > 01.03.19 | Leaving a coffee bar in Los Angeles
Details of the first series that Marvel Studios will be making for Disney's streaming service have been released and 'The Vision and Scarlet Witch' is hoping to have Paul Bettany and Elizabeth Olsen in the lead roles.
Writing the series for Disney+ will be Jac Schaeffer, who is part of the writing team for upcoming blockbter, Captain Marvel.
Sources have told Hollywood Reporter that she will write the pilot and also executive produce the action series that will foc on two integral members of the Avengers.
Candids > 2018 > December 10 | Leaving the Gym
New Avengers: Endgame Poster for Scarlet Witch. Avengers: Endgame?hits theaters on April 26th, 2019.
Sorry for Your Loss?will return for a second season. Facebook Watch has given the critically acclaimed drama a renewal order for season two, with the renewal coming hot on the heels of the show��s star, Elizabeth Olsen, picking up a?Critics�� Choice Awards?nomination in the Best Actress in a Dramatic Series category.
Sorry for Your Loss?premiered at the 2018 Toronto International Film Festival where it received a warm reception from critics. The series currently sits at 96% fresh on?Rotten Tomatoes. Pl, the original drama made The New York Times, The Atlantic, and New York Magazine��s best series of 2018 lists.
Award-winning playwright Kit Steinkellner created the series and James Ponsoldt (The Spectacular Now) directed multiple episodes of the show��s first season.
In addition to Elizabeth Olsen (Avengers: Infinity War), the cast of season two includes Kelly Marie Tran (Star Wars: Episode VIII �C The Last Jedi), Mamoudou Athie (The Front Runner), Jovan Adepo (The Leftovers), and two-time Oscar nominee Janet McTeer (Tumbleweeds, Albert Nobbs). Olsen serves as an executive producer along with Kit Steinkellner, James Ponsoldt, Robin Schwartz, Marc Turtletaub, Peter Saraf, Cynthia Pett, Brad Petrigala, and Jon Liebman. Big Beach produced the series.
��Everyone involved in this project put their hearts on the screen. Kit Steinkellner created an honest and vibrant world anchored by James Ponsoldt��s accomplished direction and Elizabeth Olsen��s superlative and deeply affecting performance. I was moved and surprised by the immediate outpouring of empathy that the show created on this budding streaming service and I look forward to providing more space for these important conversations during season 2,�� said Big Beach TV��s Robin Schwartz.
It's widely understood that those bearing the last name Olsen will have some serio, genetically-blessed lengths. And for Hollywood royalty Elizabeth Olsen, and her new set of wispy bangs, the saying could not be more true.
Stepping out this weekend in Beverly Hills to celebrate the holidays with Brooks Brothers, the actress showed off her recently-chopped blonde fringe. Paired with a French girl-approved two piece suit and a swirl of rose-colored cream blh, Olsen's piece-y strands, honeyed and hitting past the upper lash line, took their mark center stage.
The?Avengers?star joins the ranks of banged beauties who have fastened themselves a wispy new set this year, including singer?Selena Gomez?and model?Bella Hadid, the latter having famoly taken the style for a test run on Instagram. And while the actress is no stranger to beauty transformations��she's experimented with darker roots and neck-revealing bobs��Olsen's new look holds a striking resemblance to her two older designer siblings, Mary Kate and Ashley. With 2019 quickly approaching, consider this a lesson in new year beauty resolutions.

Here's the new trailer for the continuation to the next Avengers movie
Marvel fans lost their minds when it was reported last month that Loki and Scarlet Witch TV series were being developed for Disney��s upcoming streaming service. Falling under the purview of Marvel Studios�� Kevin Feige, these will tie directly into the films, with the likes of Tom Hiddleston and Elizabeth Olsen set to reprise their roles.
Pl, it��s jt been revealed that Paul Bettany is likely set to return as Vision in Scarlet Witch��s solo venture. This makes a lot of sense for anyone who��s seen Avengers: Infinity War. After all, Wanda Maximoff and the android had fallen hard for each other since we last saw them and though they��re both currently dead, we��d expect this romance to continue once they��ve been resurrected in Avengers 4.
If the Wanda/Vision love story will be the backbone of the Scarlet Witch show, then, could it be drawing a certain amount of inspiration from the Hoe of M storyline? Though we can��t see the reality-warping part of the comic book event being tackled, the central idea of having Wanda��s life unravel would make for a great miniseries. In the comic, she es her powers to effectively dream up a happy life, including two children with Vis. However, the illion can��t last and she loses her grip on reality when she realizes it��s all fake.
It��s not jt fans who��d like to see the show adapt Hoe of M, either, as Olsen herself has said that she ��would love�� to address the storyline within the MCU. She smartly made the point at the time that all the X-Men stuff would have to be removed, but even that might not be an obstacle anymore as Disney will soon get its paws on the X-Men universe through its purchase of Fox.
On the heels of yesterday��s news that Disney��s upcoming streaming service would be featuring a Winter Soldier/Falcon-foced limited TV series, it looks like the previoly announced Scarlet Witch standalone series will be a two-hander. Longtime MCU player Paul Bettany, who has been the voice of JARVIS since 2008��s Iron Man before getting to appear on screen in the artificial flesh as the superheroic android Vision, is now expected to join Elizabeth Olsen in the streaming series.
/Film reports that Bettany will have a significant part to play in the Scarlet Witch limited series in a narrative that will likely foc on the relationship between Vision and Wanda Maximoff before the arrival of Thanos and his dty fingers. Like the Tom Hiddleston-starring Loki series and the previoly mentioned Winter Soldier/Falcon show, Scarlet Witch is expected to be six to eight episodes long and won��t be connected to either the Netflix Marvel TV universe or that of Disney��s broadcast banner, ABC. Production of the streaming series will be handled by Marvel Studios and not Marvel Television, bringing blockbter-like budgets to each foced, limited season.
Not much more information is available on any of the MCU TV series, except for the fact that Empire writer Malcolm Spellman will write the limited series centering on Falcon and Winter Solidier. We should expect further confirmation from Disney proper once they��ve got their marketing machine all revved up and ready to go with official cast confirmations, title reveals, release dates, and more. Disney��s not alone in trying to get their many-headed streaming service up and available to the masses, but they might jt be the furthest along the track in the quest to dethrone Netflix.
