I did not make this headline up
Saturday Morning Bobblethon
Just a quick reminder. We are close to catching PSU for the lead.
if you could change one Michigan event in the past what would it be?
For me 2006 OSU vs Michigan. Anytime I stumble upon anything relating to it I end up having to watch highlights to torture myself again. I remember every single event i did during that game. From the feeling that we were going to lose when I went down high st for halftime dinner. To the late hit Crable delivered and how even if it didnt happen it felt like the 2004 rosebowl where there was no stopping the QB only hope of messing up. Any how what event would you change in Michigan history and it has to be a single event. Be it something like a game you wish we won, or wishing drew henson did not leave to play baseball.
Math 115 vs Math 116
Alright, so I'm faced with a bit of a situation here...(and I'll probably get some comments complaining about freshmen). I'm sure you students/alumni have probably heard this debate a ton, but I just need some feedback.
So my problem is that I'm stuck trying to decide whether I should take Math 115 or Math 116 my first semester this fall. I talked with the math advisor, but at the time I had no idea of my AP status, but I have since found out that I have AP credit for Math 115, so there are basically 4 free credits there. However, I'm also taking Chem 210/211 (organic) this fall as part of my BME requirements. Switching out of Chem 210/211 isn't an option. I'm currently signed up for Math 116, but I'm hearing a lot of rabble from people that Calc II and Orgo together aren't exactly the best way to start out and I'm just setting myself up for failure. I thought I understood calc I enough, but I'm hearing a lot about a Michigan Difference in math that could give me a lot of trouble.
I hate to throw out free credits and retake a class, but it would be worse to just murder my gpa/soul if calc II is crazy. I'm just wondering if any of you out there have done this and/or know people who have, and how it went for you.
Other things to consider:
- I'm only signed up for 13 credits
- If I accept the AP calc credit and start with Math 116 I'll bring with me 13 credits from AP's (4 from calc, 4 from psychology, 5 from biology). If not I throw out 4 free credits and enter with 9
- I need a 3.2 gpa to declare BME my major
OT: Delivery
My wife is out of town this weekend, and I'm having a quiet night at home with the dog and a couple of beers. Unfortunately, I've run into a problem. I'm out of beer. I finished the scotch last week and I don't keep any other liquor. I've had too much to drive, but I'm not quite drunk.
If I was really hungry, I'd order a pizza. Hell, if I was a sick asshole with an intense desire to get an STD I could order a "friend" on Craigslist. However, I can't order beer or liquor.
What else would you order for delivery if it was available?
Nightly Bobblethon Reminder
We have been ahead on the daily bobblethon meter all day. A couple more days like this and we just might recapture the lead from PSU. Can you bobble once more before you go out to the bar tonight?
OT: Note to XM Satellite Radio users
I called XM Radio today to cancel my subscription. I listen to Channel 42 Liquid Metal exclusively and some of the ESPN radio channels every now and then. I just couldn't justify paying 16 dollars a month for essentially one radio channel.
They offered to keep me subscribed for 5 months at $3 dollars a month. I declined.
They offered to keep me subscribed for 3 months totally free. I declined.
Basically I just wanted to tell XM users that if you are looking for a few months of satellite radio at a discount or free, call and "cancel". In this economy, its nice to gets things cheaper so thought I would just pass it along.

The forum said Rimfire so does anyone see the 5m/m's comming out of the closet now that ammo is available? Is it going to be like the .22WRF when they reproduced it? Still a lot of the ammo out there but haven't seen any shooting them.

I'll be shooting my 591M, as soon as I can get my hands on some fresh ammo ! I have 125 rounds of old Rem. 5MM ammo,but I'm going to hang on to that.
I had a chance to buy a contender barrel reasonable but I had to take the 5 boxes of ammo and that made it out of the fun range.
Likely that owners of 5mmRFs will be shooting them- but do I see a future for the 5mm? IMNSHO, no- the 17RF has been hyped (and sold) too much.

I know it will cost a little more but how can you put aprice on a good time.
I wonder about the .17 moch 2 : Will it survive and stay in production. I havn't seen a 5m/m for sale for a long time.
Some info about the Rem 5 MM rimfire round is at www.aguilaammo.com and www.varminter.com CZ may be makeing a rifle for the 5 MM rimfire round. Remington made a Mdl 591 and 592 bolt action rifles years ago . There are a lot of 17 HM2 fans at www.rimfirecentral.com so it will be around for some time. Eley and CCI are makeing 17 HM2 ammo but some of the firearms manufactors have stopped makeing the 17 HM2 rifles.
I got my 5m/m but it was too late for the gopher season. It is more than a little bit of fun busting cans. I'll give you a report on the leathel effect in the spring.

Possible Merger of NC Community Colleges Could Save Millions of Dollars
Jul 13, 2011
Tough economic times have forced everyone, from individuals to corporations to higher education institutions, to look for ways to balance budgets and save money. For North Carolina community colleges, some claim savings could come in the way of a merger between smaller and larger schools. The Education Insider takes a look at the positives and negatives of this plan.
By Harrison Howe
Merging and Saving
Currently, community colleges in NC are independent institutions, with their own presidents, payrolls and other administrators. The smallest is Pamlico Community College, with a student population of 624, and the largest is Central Piedmont Community College, which enrolls more than 16,000. The state's community college system is the third-largest in the United States.
According to a state legislative report released in June 2011, having larger community colleges take over many of the administrative functions of smaller schools (3,000 students or less) could save $30 million over a 6-year period. The savings would come largely from eliminating, among other positions, presidents and payroll departments from the smaller institutions.
The plan calls for merging 15 of the smaller community colleges with the larger schools in the system. The report stresses that no campuses in the NC community college system would close. 'What would change is the number of administrators,' Catherine Moga Bryant, the author of the report, told the Winston-Salem Journal in June.
The plan to merge higher education institutions is not a new one. A merger between the Connecticut State University and Connecticut Community Colleges systems was approved in May and took place on July 1st. Legislators in that state claim such a merger will save $4.3 million a year.
Some Remain 'Totally Opposed' to Merger
Even the promise of saving money has not warmed everyone to the merger proposal.
'I am totally opposed to the consolidation and merger idea,' Montgomery Community College President Mary Kirk told the Winston-Salem Journal. She cites the negative impact on rural students, who might not 'have access to the same level of affordable education and training' after a merger, as the reason for her opposition. Kirk also emphasizes that the system as it runs now is efficient.
Others, including Community College System President Scott Ralls, feel the potential disruption caused by a merger would not be worth the money being saved. With spending cuts looming due to expected reductions in funding, Ralls argues that there might be other ways to save money than taking on the costs such a merger would certainly incur.
Ralls, like Kirk, also feels that the system is efficient. 'The fact that only $5 million would be saved by consolidating 15 community colleges speaks directly to the lean nature of our colleges,' he said, as reported by newsobserver.com.
For now, a decision on the idea is postponed.
Everyone is feeling the financial pinch in these tough economic times; public universities across the country continue to look for ways to save money and balance their budgets.

Brumbies suffer Lealiifano blow
Tue, 03 Dec 2013 17:24
Brumbies centre Christian Lealiifano will undergo ankle surgery that will rule him out of the start of next year's Super Rugby season.
The ace goal-kicker suffered the injury on the Wallabies' successful end-of-year tour and will only know how long he'll be sidelined for after the surgery.
"Christian's booked in for surgery and ready to go. He'll have a week off and then come back to get that done,'' director of rugby Laurie Fisher told the Canberra Times.
"It's impossible to say how long it will have him out for but we don't expect him to be available for the first round, that's not in our expectations.
"Until they open his ankle up, they're not exactly sure what damage they'll be repairing."

We report a technique for extraction of the intrinsic subgap density of states (gA,int(E)) by deembedding the parasitic capacitance in amorphous indium-gallium-zinc-oxide TFTs through the optical charge pumping method. As structure-dependent parameters in the proposed extraction technique, the overlap length LOV between the source/drain (S/D) and the active layer and the parasitic overlap area between the gate and the S/D metal (Cpar,S/Cpar,D) are considered under dark and subbandgap photonic states. We obtained gA,int(E) as a superposition of the exponential deep and tail states with NTA,int = 6.0 × 1016 eV-1·cm-3, kTTA,int = 0.16 eV,NDA,int = 1.8 × 1015 eV-1 · cm-3, and kTDA,int = 1.9 eV from samples with various parasitic areas.

Death Toll In West, Texas, Fertilizer Explosion Rises To 15
The number of people who died in a fertilizer plant explosion in West, Texas, last week now stands at 15, officials said Tuesday. Some earlier reports had indicated that 14 people had lost their lives. At least 200 more were injured.
In Waco, TV station KXXV says that officials believe they have found all the victims, quoting Mayor Pro Tem Steve Vanek saying "No more victims. Everything is searched," in a news conference today.
The latest death toll comes as investigators continue to study the catastrophe and the fire that preceded it. The explosion left a crater 93 feet wide and 10 feet deep, investigators said Tuesday.
State and federal investigators working at the scene have eliminated natural causes — such as a lightning strike — as a potential spark for the fire, according to The Dallas Morning News.
As we reported Monday, authorities are still in the process of publicly identifying people who were killed in the blast; the majority of them were first responders.
After fleeing their homes in an evacuation and then being forced to stay away by safety concerns and a continuing investigation, the first wave of West residents were allowed to return to their damaged homes Saturday.
The White House announced Monday that President Obama will attend a memorial service for the explosion's victims, to be held Thursday at Baylor University. The president has declared the West, Texas, site a federal disaster area.

Although its still early, this winter has been pretty wild. Early storms dumped snow on un-frozen ground, causing a lot of dirt and rocks to get processed through customer equipment. This made for LOTS of auger related repair work. Now, with plunging temperatures, unserviced and ethanol-fouled engines either won't start or need to be left at half choke to keep them running. We can fix that too, and it shouldn't be left that way as the problem can grow, get worse and cause damage.
New Simplicity snow blowers started moving in late July, and never stopped. In fact, our new inventory is all but gone, (only 2 left!), and as it stands, we can't get any more this season. Fortunately, we've got a number of quality, reconditioned pieces in the stable for sale.
So, if you need your current snow fighting equipment tuned up and serviced so it's ready for the next round, or if you're in the market for a new or used snow blower give us a call, or better yet stop in. We've still got a long way to go until spring is here. It WILL seem even longer fighting a sub-par snow blower for three more months!
Whether its a brand new Simplicity Conquest tractor with a 52 " fabricated deck or a Regent series with a 38" deck or a walk behind mower, we've got it. With the manufacturers allowing us to run specials, and rebates, there has never been a better time to come in and upgrade your arsenal. If a good used piece of equipment would better fit your budget, we have constant rotating inventory, and they are priced to sell!
Tucker's Power Equipment, conveniently located in west Keene, NH, is an authorized dealer for Briggs and Stratton, Kohler, Simplicity, Snapper, Echo, and Stihl equipment. Catering to all of your year round yard, and property maintanance needs. Whether it's taming your lawn, reclaiming your property lines from overgrown brush, or clearing out the two feet of "white stuff" that buried your driveway, we've got the right tool for the job. And our qualified service technicians will help keep your new equipment serviceable and working properly for years to come.
* Coming soon, our new "Used Equipment" page.
* Call now for summer service pick up! * Been fighting your lawn mower this season? Get it in now for a tune-up.
* Don't forget to check us out on Facebook during storms for special "Storm Hours."
Welcome to our web site! We appreciate you checking us out. We will update the site with seasonal specials, sales and great deals on equipment as needed. Check us out on facebook for timely updates on special storm hours, or to stay up to date with other Tucker's events. Click the button below to see on-going specials at any time.
And don't forget to check out the hotlinks below to take a look at the product lines we carry in stock and on site.
Because our technicians see the adverse effects of it every day, we at Tuckers look for ways to combat the negative impact ethanol has on small engines. To help our customers keep their equipment running propely once we've serviced it, we carry Star Tron fuel additive. The gains are tremendous, and the cost is minimal! Give us a call, or stop in for more information.

Tasting Notes
Tasting Notes by Billy A
Nose: Icing sugar sweetness backed up by iodine and brine. Some black rubber, warm leather and gravelly minerality hide underneath the sweetness.
Palate: Sweet and syrupy, with candied ginger, hints of black rubber, light coal smoke, bitter charcoal, sweet apple and salted caramel.
Finish: Coal stoves and floral syrup. Lingering sweetness slowly develops into soft woodiness.

People in northeastern Indian state of Meghalaya have voted in the second phase of parliamentary elections along with neighbouring states of Arunachal Pradesh, Manipur and Nagaland.
Live Box 2014491031852522
The ruling Congress party, the main oppostion Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), regional party United Democratic Party, National People's Party and independents are fighting it out for the two Lok Sabha or House of the people seats.
In Meghalaya, which had seen high turnout in the recent polls, enthusiasm is low for the current Lok Sabha elections.
"I have never seen the candidates, I will vote for the person suggested by local MLA," says Laokhwan La, whose village of 500 people is in East Khasi Hills.
Donny Malcolm Wallang, additional district commissioner, Shillong said they had employed "dynamic methods" to attract young voters to ensure maximum participation.
Activities included flying clubs, essay, drawing, debate, quiz contests, graffiti, competitions in art, dancing, singing, slogan writing, on-air-air jingles contest, and "Run for Democracy Marathon".
Though a matrilineal society, where women enjoy greater social and economic privilege, political power still eludes them.
Women stand in queue to cast their vote in Meghalaya state, as the second round of India elections started at 7am on Wednesday.

An SPLC advocate shares the story of a teen she met in an Alabama prison and discusses the danger of sending minors to adult lock-ups.
An SPLC lawsuit in Montgomery, Ala., has stopped the jailing of indigent people who can't pay traffic fines – a modern-day version of debtors' prison that is finding new life across America.
MTV aired a powerful public service announcement about the protests in Ferguson, Missouri – part of a campaign designed with input from the SPLC and other organizations. The PSA is part of MTV's "Look Different" campaign, which seeks to "erase the hidden racial, gender and anti-LGBT bias all around us."
The new issue of the SPLC Intelligence Report examines three radical-right murder sprees that left a dozen victims dead, and explores the recent standoff between heavily armed militiamen and federal agents in Nevada.
The tragic police shooting of an unarmed black teen in a St. Louis suburb once again points to discriminatory policies in our criminal justice system.
Attitudes may be shifting, but the laws in states like Alabama lag far behind, preventing LGBT people from having their same-sex marriages recognized for legal purposes.

If my memory is correct, it used to be fatal. When the fetus is tiny, and arterial pressures relatively low, there is a communication between the aorta and the pulmonary artery, called the ductus arteriosus.(I think) Ordinarily it involutes before birth. but if it persists the higher pressure in aorta forces blood through it into pulmonary artery which has lower pressure. My brother's only son died of it because heart surgery to correct it had not been developed at that time. So it was fetal, but could often be fatal fifty years ago. Alex, or Doc_Comfort, correct me if I am wrong.
Anybody interested, just type "patent ductus arteriosus" in Yahoo! search box, and up comes a dandy illustration and information about this.

One mans trash is another mans treasure and so it is it seems with flowers. This one being Alaskas state flower but in another part of the world it is nothing more than a lowly weed.Fireweed is a tall perennial herb with numerous dense, narrow lance-shaped leaves. Bright reddish-purple flowers grow in long terminal clusters and are very showy. Fireweed is the common name for the perennial plant Epilobium angustoifolium. You will find the plant growing in open meadows, in areas recently cleared of vegetation by wild fires and along river�beds and roadsides. Alaskans say that summer has started when the blossoms low�est on the stem bloom and that summer�s end is in sight when the blossoms reach the top of the stalk. I took this picture...

Edison style bulb equivalent to modern 75 watts? Do they exist?
threeapplesMay 17, 2013
I want to use an Edison style bulb for my son's ceiling fixture, but the 70 watt I found says it's the equivalent of a modern 25 watt bulb, which is way too dim. Do higher wattages for this type of antique bulb exist?
The key figure is 'lumens'. An incandescent 75w bulb, under good circumstances, would emit about 1100 lumens of light. Today there are halogen, CFL, and a few LED options that emit light at that level.
For a kids bedroom, definitely go with at least CFL and hopefully LED. Most kids seem to have no idea how to turn lights OFF, so they are often ON for several hours a day!

Defense Acquisitions:
Strategic Airlift Gap Has Been Addressed, but Tactical Airlift Plans Are Evolving as Key Issues Have Not Been Resolved

Department of Defense (DOD) used nearly 700 aircraft, as well as commercial and leased aircraft, to carry about 3 million troops and 800,000 tons of cargo in support of wartime, peacetime, and humanitarian efforts in 2008. C-5s and C-17s move troops and cargo internationally (strategic airlift) and C-130s are the primary aircraft that moves them within a theater of operation (tactical airlift). Over the next 4 years, DOD plans to spend about $12 billion to modernize and procure airlifters and is currently studying how many it needs. The Government Accountability Office (GAO) was asked to (1) identify the status of DOD's modernization and acquisition efforts and (2) determine how well DOD is addressing any capability gaps and redundancies. In conducting this work, GAO identified the cost, schedule, and performance of airlift programs, as well as DOD's plan for addressing gaps and redundancies. GAO also discussed mobility study efforts with DOD, Institute for Defense Analysis (IDA), and RAND Coporation officials.
DOD has recently revamped airlift investments due to modernization cost increases and requirement changes. For strategic airlift, the number of C-5s that will be fully modernized were cut in half because of substantial reengining cost increases and C-17 quantities were increased from 180 to 213 aircraft. These twin changes resulted in a net cost increase of about$3 billion. Additional costs and force structure changes are possible pending decisions on C-5 retirements, other modifications, the potential need for more C-17s to meet tactical airlift needs, and the planned shutdown of C-17 production. For tactical airlift, substantial cost increases for modernizing C-130 avionics tripled unit costs, delayed its schedule, and resulted in almost 60 percent fewer aircraft being modernized. There have been large increases in the C-130J quantity to replace older C-130s, but modest increases in unit costs. The joint Army-Air Force C-27J program was recently transferred to the Air Force and quantities were cut from 78 to 38 aircraft, with an uncertain effect on the Army's airlift missions. The Army and Air Force must also resolve fundamental differences in operating requirements and employment strategy for the Joint Future Theater Lift (JFTL). DOD appears to have addressed its strategic airlift gap, but there is a potential future tactical airlift gap for moving medium weight equipment. Also, questions regarding how the Air Force will meet the Army's direct support mission have not been resolved. DOD is using $5.5 billion appropriated by Congress to procure 23 additional C-17s, which DOD officials believe more than offsets the strategic airlift gap associated with the restructured C-5 modernization program. However, there is a potential gap in the tactical airlift of medium weight loads beyond the capability of the C-130s. The C-17 is the only aircraft capable of moving this type of Army equipment within a theater of operation, although not to austere, short, or unimproved landing areas. The JFTL is envisioned to provide this capability, but will not be available for 15 years or more under the current acquisition strategy. While the various mobility studies acknowledge the C-17's significant dual role, they did not comprehensively evaluate the expanded use of the C-17 to transport medium weight equipment in theater and how this could impact the force structure, the C-17's service life, and decisions related to when to shut down the production line. In addition, questions remain about the number of C-130s and C-27Js needed to fulfill Army direct support missions. Two studies reached somewhat different conclusions about the cost effectiveness of using C-130Js and C-27Js for this mission. The Air Force and Army have not completed a plan for meeting Army direct support requirements, which could affect future decisions on both the C-27J and the C-130J. DOD's recently established portfolio management structure is supposed to provide a useful forum to address the broad range of airlift investment decisions. However, efforts so far have primarily focused on new programs rather than addressing gaps and making other airlift decisions such as when and how many C-5s to retire or the appropriate mix of C-130s and C-27Js needed to perform Army missions.
Recommendations for Executive Action
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: Air Mobility Command engaged RAND to define the Army's time-sensitive, mission-critical requirements and mix of aircraft needed to satisfy same. That report, as well as the results of the Mobility Capability Study, clarified the numbers of C-130 and C-27Js needed for special the Army cargo. A two-service working group honed working agreements and MOA regarding Air Force support of Army special needs.
Recommendation: To help improve DOD's management of strategic and tactical airlift assets, the Secretary of Defense should direct the Air Force and Army to reach agreement on plans detailing how Army time-sensitive, mission-critical requirements will be addressed and prioritized against other Air Force priorities.
Agency Affected: Department of Defense
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: Air Mobility Command engaged RAND to define the Army's time-sensitive, mission-critical requirements and mix of aircraft needed to satisfy same. Air Force also completed the mobility capabilities study that better defined C-130 requirements for common pool lift. The Air Force has also identified a quantity of C-130 aircraft to be specifically allocated to meet Army time sensitive, mission critical cargo requirements. Air Force and Army worked to define mission critical time sensitive needs and process. Management of C-27J moved to Air Force and the quantity was reduced.
Recommendation: To help improve DOD's management of strategic and tactical airlift assets, the Secretary of Defense should direct the Commander, Air Mobility Command, to determine the appropriate mix of C-27Js and C-130s that are needed to meet Army time-sensitive, mission-critical requirements and common user pool requirements.
Agency Affected: Department of Defense
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: DOD used the results of the February 2010 Mobility Capabilities Requirements Study - 2016 to determine future strategic airlift requirements and fleet composition. Officials decided to cap C-17 procurement and reduce the number of modernized C-5s. Also sought approval for retiring up to 22 C-5s.
Recommendation: To help improve DOD's management of strategic and tactical airlift assets, the Secretary of Defense should direct the Office of the Secretary of Defense (Cost Assessment and Program Evaluation) and Commander, U.S. Transportation Command to develop a specific airlift plan that would identify when C-5s will be retired and identify the total number of additional C-17s, if any, that would be needed to replace C-5s or perform tactical heavy lift missions until the time the JFTL is fielded.
Agency Affected: Department of Defense
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: DOD recently completed the Mobility Capabilities Requirement Study, which provides an assessment of airlift needs through 2016. The study was a joint effort between the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology and Logistics and the U.S. Transportation Command. Study results are being used by senior defense leaders to make decisions on C-5 and C-130 modernization efforts, as well as C-17, C-130J and C-27J procurements.
Recommendation: To help improve DOD's management of strategic and tactical airlift assets, the Secretary of Defense should direct the portfolio management team, consisting of U.S. Transportation Command and the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology and Logistics, to provide more comprehensive advice to senior leaders on the full range of airlift investment decisions, including new program starts, modernization efforts, and retirement decisions. This would also include identifying alternatives for using existing common user aircraft to meet service-specific missions and considering new roles and missions for the Air Force.
Agency Affected: Department of Defense
Status: Closed - Not Implemented
Comments: DOD partially concurred with the recommendation, stating that the Air Force and Army are currently engaged in approving the Initial Capabilities Document and will then be working on the Analysis of Alternatives to consider viable alternatives for addressing capability gaps. On follow-up in 2012, we determined that the JFTL and related concepts are still being considered, but no specific program start is envisioned for the foreseeable future. In the current budget environment, a new start of such a advanced technology is considered unlikely. Therefore, we are closing this recommendation as not implemented.
Recommendation: To help improve DOD's management of strategic and tactical airlift assets, the Secretary of Defense should direct the joint Air Force and Army program office to develop a plan to follow an evolutionary approach for developing the JFTL based on DOD acquisition policy that includes selecting mature technologies, normally developing increments in less than 5 years, and fully funding each increment.

How to sum up the lingerie world in 2010? In a word, whew.
It was a year in which glam styles and goth looks, bold prints and subtle hues, sharp lines and gushing romanticism and a resurgence in vintage styling all competed for the lingerie buyer's attention. So "wow" moments weren't hard to find.
We've narrowed down our best-of list to 20 pieces that encompass a vast range of styles and brands, from new indie designers to some of the world's premium labels. We've left a LOT off the list, so we'll leave it to you to fill in any blanks in our 2010 scorecard.
First, we start with a slight cheat: the image above is actually from the new Spring-Summer 2011 collection by Lise Charmel, but it's been available for the past few weeks so we can't resist. It's from a new line called Look Fatal and it sums up the year for us: creative, colorful, beautifully styled and with just enough glam appeal to make it interesting.
Now, discuss among yourselves.
Lily silk floral-printed soft-cup triangle bra with bow detail and matching brief, from one of the UK's most ultra-romantic, and impressive, new labels. Comfort never looked sexier.
Sublim Up plunge bra from Aubade's Envoutante Esquisse collection. Everything Aubade does takes our breath away; this piece shows the venerable French label is constantly evolving.
One-shoulder bodysuit, modeled by Crystal Renn. It was a banner year for Victoria Bartlett's trend-setting New York label, which keeps defying convention with astonishing results. Who says nude lingerie has to be boring?
Mesh bra, waspie and string from the RC Instintual collection by Crescentini, the edgy diffusion line of Italian brand Cotton Club. Hot looks for glamorous math students.
Fresh Foundations satin and lace brief and garter. A brash mix of colors defines this very pretty set from the UK's hottest boutique label of 2010. Wildly creative, MBN seems willing to try anything, so watch closely.
From the Lonely II collection by the much-admired, often-imitated New Zealand label. Their Add It Up streetwear line was also the best compilation of layered undies we saw this year.
String and lace bodysuit from the fall-winter 2010 collection. This high-end Italian glam label makes jaw-dropping statement lingerie. If you're looking for applause, followed by panting and drooling, start your shopping here.
Sheer Romance peach silk and chiffon dressing robe. A magical creation from one of the new stars of New York fashion design.
Midnight bodysuit from the Swing collection. While everyone else was designing prints, Eres released a knockout fall line of monochrome pieces that draw from the French brand's swimwear lineage. A triumph of warm colors (this one's called roquine) and crisp architectural lines.
It seemed to take forever for Gaultier's capsule collection for La Perla to reach the stores, but it did not disappoint the faithful. Several pieces, like the Madonna-esque basque above, felt like Gaultier was plagiarizing himself, but does anyone care? This is your chance to whisper at your next cocktail party, "I'm wearing Gaultier!"
Lavender underwire bra and boyshort, from the Spring-Summer 2010 collection. One of the nicest sets from one of the most romantic collections of the year.
CK's minimalist aesthetic got a bit of a makeover with the sleek, refined new Envy line. Although we can't remember if Zoe Saldana was brought in to promote the lingerie, or vice-versa.
Greta lace and satin ensemble. Watching La Perla's bizarre efforts to reinvent itself this year was like watching Tiger Woods rebuild his golf swing — painful, confusing and done with our fingers crossed. Mercifully, the iconic label emerged from its rebranding exercise with a brilliant new range of styles, including this one, inspired by screen goddess Greta Garbo.
Cutout tie-dye leggings, from the F/W collection inspired by 1970s Swedish porn movies (true!) Know how to tell if a fashion writer has a clue? Look for the endlessly creative, boundary-pushing L&S on their best-of list; if it's not there, don't bother reading.
Lace and silk bodysuit. The stunning debut collection of silk finery from this London-based French designer was one of the year's great surprises.
Heart bra and I Love My Bike shorts from the Love is Like a Dreamland collection. Australian designer Courtney Meyer is like a rock star to young girls Down Under, and no wonder. Her summer collection was achingly sweet. And her Heart bra was, quite simply, the prettiest thing we saw all year.
Both collections this fall from Damaris and Mimi Holiday by Damaris were absolutely sublime. It was hard to choose just one piece, but we'll go with the Noir du Nuit ensemble by Damaris with FOUR different types of lace, as well as tulle, which best exemplifies the luxurious, ornate and innovative vision of this UK-based trendsetter.
The British label landed pouty supermodel Rosie Huntington-Whitely for their spring 2010 campaign, to predictable acclaim. More surprising was Monsoon's decision to add some exquisite vintage-inspired pieces like this one to its collection.
Looking for a single piece that screams 2010? How about this corset-dress with its elasticized bands, harness details and studded straps? In a year in which bondage-inspired riggings came out of the closet, so to speak, Bordelle led the way. Feel like a sexy bad-ass, even if you're just pretending.
Part of the fun of working in this industry is looking at all the ridiculously creative marketing campaigns used to sell lingerie.
Video in particular has become the lingerie marketer's best friend; like the product itself, film exerts its power through suggestion and association to excite the viewer's imagination. Talk about a match made in heaven. And, as Lane Bryant or Fortnight Lingerie learned this year, you don't need access to the airwaves to get your message out.
We set out to pick the top 10 lingerie videos of 2010 but, like kids in a candy store, just couldn't stop. So, at the risk of using up a month's worth of bandwidth in a single day, here are 15 films to titillate, amuse and seduce you while you're wrapping presents.
The videos below come from a wide variety of sources and range from big-budget TV commercials to DIY indie shorts, some seen by tens of millions around the world and some barely seen outside the filmmaker's Facebook group.
We've listed them in no particular order, except to say that the first video below was our overall favorite. (The photo above is a contact sheet from that film).
Alas, there are hundreds more that were regrettably left off the list. Santa, if you're listening, all we want for Christmas is more bandwidth.
Marloes Horst by Warwick Saint
Dutch model Marloes Horst was everywhere in 2010, most notably in some memorable lingerie campaigns for Princesse Tam Tam and other labels. This languid little film by U.S. celeb photographer Warwick Saint was our favorite video of the year. Marloes, decked out in luxurious Stella McCartney undies and a hand-made diamond and platinum necklace, allows the camera to worship her while Cat Power purrs seductively on the soundtrack. Very very sexy. You can see Part 2 of this collaboration here.
Lane Bryant – 'Not What Mom Would Wear'
With 4 million views on YouTube alone, and unknown numbers around the world who saw this on the news, Lane Bryant's "banned" TV ad for its new Cacique line was a true marketing phenomenon and made an unlikely media star of Ashley Graham. Kudos to all involved for taking a brave stand and weathering the storms that followed. This video didn't change public stereotypes about plus-sized women overnight, but it ignited a lengthy and healthy debate and for that we owe them thanks.
Ann Summers – 'Giving Wood Since 1972′
One of a series of riotously naughty videos this year from the boundary-pushing Ann Summers, purveyors of great lingerie and battery-powered accessories. We'd love to show you their latest production, Christmas is Coming, but it's so NSFW we can't even describe it. Have a look, and be prepared to gasp, snort and howl before you forward the link to all your friends.
Justin Anderson – Chore Damaris
Smart, sexy and a bit odd, Justin Anderson's project for UK label Damaris was hugely popular thanks to its unlikely juxtaposition of housework with the world's hottest underthings. Vacuuming will never be the same.
Agent Provocateur – 'Betty Sue'
We lost track of how many videos comprised Agent Provocateur's hugely ambitious Private Tapes, a series of grainy peep-show films to promote their new fall line. After seeing a few, they all started to look the same and blend together in our mind. AP forgot the first lesson of lingerie: less is more. Regardless, the concept was brilliant and we can't wait to see what they do next. The video above, with Kirsty Hume playing the aggressive vixen Betty Sue, was our favorite from the Private Tapes series.
Alexandra Grecco
This no-budget gem is three minutes of pure joy from retro designer Alexandra Grecco, featuring model Celia Rowison-Hall twirling around the room. A great soundtrack from The Generationals helps. Our only complaint is that only a few of Grecco's lingerie pieces are shown.
Oh La La Cheri
This entry from the Parisian label Oh La La Cheri is a straightforward commercial video that oozes elegant sensuality. The old-money setting and lingering camera make it work.
Fortnight Lingerie – 'Super Sexy Abdominal Thrusts'
Toronto's Fortnight Lingerie had the OTHER video hit of the year with their amusing, original multi-purpose Super Sexy CPR. This was the follow-up, which we prefer if only because of the very sweet payoff at the end. Both are worth seeing again. So is our article about the video.
Angela Ferraro – 'Elle Tourmente'
Honey Birdette, an Australian lingerie boutique chain, held a contest this year inviting fans to submit original short films to promote their brand. Hmm, sounds like a great way to get film students to do free PR. Regardless, the results were very impressive and the winning entry, 'Elle Tourmente' by director Angela Ferraro, is exceptional. Check out the rest of the 'Saucy Shorts' here.
Victoria's Secret – Angels Lip Synching
Victoria's Secret churned out a couple of dozen high-end BTS vids and big-budget commercials this year, but this is the one that sticks like glue. Released online as a promo for the VS Fashion Show last month, it features the usual Angels prancing around while lip synching very convincingly to Katy Perry's 'Firework'. The whole thing is a blast and is worth many repeat viewings. The song fits VS perfectly and you will swear Behati can sing! And even if she can't, one thing is certain: the Angels lip-synch waaay better than Katy.
Journelle – 'The Lover'
NYC's Journelle, every lingerista's favorite store, released a series of well-crafted promo videos earlier this year. 'The Lover', a sultry bit of European-style tease, is our favorite.
London Fashion Week – 'Underworld'
This was a collaborative piece to promote the Lingerie Boudoir at London Fashion Week, and features lingerie from 10 designers including Ell & Cee, Ayten Gasson, Kiss Me Deadly and Lascivious. Shot by Ali Peck, music by Marilyn Manson, and, yes, that's Marloes Horst again.
Bordelle – S/S 2011 Teaser
This is as basic as it gets — a model posing in pieces from Bordelle's spring 2011 line. Now try to take your eyes off it.
Armani Jeans – 'The Tip'
Not strictly a lingerie ad, but you'd never know it. Featuring Megan Fox, there's a clever storyline and — bonus! — a companion video featuring Cristiano Rinaldo pretty much doing the same thing.
Fresh Pair – 'Summer Body'
Okay, okay, this is men's underwear. But it's just too damn funny not to show again. Ladies, prepare to nod in disgust.
In this business we tend to get preoccupied with frilly underthings, sometimes forgetting that lingerie fashion can be more than just window dressing for overly optimistic libidos.
These days, if you want to discover the most outrageous and the most technically accomplished undergarment designs, you need to descend into that murky netherworld where fashion collides with hyperurban post-punk noir culture.
We hesitate to call any of this lingerie, although the designers we are featuring today all draw inspiration for their extreme visions from basic foundation garments — bras, bodysuits, corsets, etc.
Disturbing, complex, sometimes unwearable, these avant-garde pieces often work better as objets d'art than as clothing, and offer more of a sociopolitical comment than a fashion statement. Rachel Friere's shocking bodysuit below (right photo) is a good example: the wearer is literally imprisoned by her outfit. This kind of thing belongs in MoMA, not your wardrobe.
Some of these designers are closer to the fashion mainstream than others, but they all seem to come from a place where gender is irrelevant, feminity is abandoned and undergarments become a kind of armor.
Imagine that: underwear that is designed to protect, not reveal. This is what passes for intimacy, post-apocalypse.
Katarzyna Konieczka is a Polish costume designer and stylist who admits her pieces "are not meant for everyday use," which is somehow comforting. Last year's award-winning The Body collection (all-white, shell-like corsets) was a hard act to follow. Her response was the dystopian Very Twisted Kingdom (main photo above), a complex series featuring models trapped in metallic, thorn-like outfits. Brilliant, unique and scary as hell.
Rachel Friere is an avante-garde clothing designer with a flair for oversized statement pieces. Those are actually bodysuits above, from Rachel's AW2010 collection. Her 2011 line is more wearable but equally unforgettable.
Una Burke is a young Irish designer whose work has no peer or precedent that we know of. Her 2010 Re-Treat collection offers intricate leather wrappings that look like cocoons — or modern-day mummies. Love the work, pity the model.
Mildred von Hildegard, the genius behind Mother of London, is the queen of UK underground fashion culture, and with good reason. She produces fearless bespoke outfits in leather, vinyl and other bits that are notoriously hard to get. Keep an eye on her Etsy page for occasional offerings; otherwise, watch for MOL to show up on Lady Gaga or Marilyn Manson, who love this stuff and have better access.
These images are from Spanish corset-maker Maya Hansen's stunning 2010 Steampunk collection of corsets, bolero jackets and leggings. Richly detailed with innumerable belts, pins, ribbons and baubles, these pieces will take forever to put on but they'll leave an impression that will last forever.
We're predicting a huge year for New York leather artist Zana Bayne, whose harness-like riggings work under or over your clothes, but scream to be seen. ZB's 2011 gasp-inducing lookbook is now out and it's going to create a new style trend: gladiator chic.
