OMG OMG OMG OMGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!! i saw it sunday it was the best thing EVAR!!!! i LOVED it! if u read this any of the aardman staff, i would like to congratulate u all because it was absolutely fantastic!! i would rate it a 9.6 out of 10 because i only got dissapointed with he fact that i wanted to see the lady pirate WITHOUT the beard and see captain get the trofie for best pirate again. but i did predict during the movie when charls darwin was trown into the garbage that the queen wanted to eat the dodo bird. what do u think?
i love love love pirates!!! their super cool dont you think?
it was awesome but it lacked nick parks awesome touch that just makes all the characters look funnier and makes the movie have just a bit more of its hilarious jokes that fit just right with the movie.
i dont think nick participaded in the movie... it wuz that other director of chicken run.
and whats with the micro dog tercla10?
I haven't seen it yet, would ya'll recommend whatching it? Does it have Aaardman-type humor in it?
of course it does silly pants! (i just felt like saying something lame) if its aardman it mush have aarman humour right? it was definetly better than autrurs cristmax that for shure. even chares darwin shows up!( if u dont know who he is, hes the one that developed the thesis of evolution) i highly recommend it and if puppylove likes something its 97% likely to be good
Haha. Yeah, I know that sounded like a silly question, except I saw some posts about Nick Park not working on it, and movies change sometimes, so I just wondered if it stayed true to the type of humor that I love about Aardman. Thanks!
u know the co director that did chicken run? i think that was peter lord right? well, he directed it and since he is a cooworker with nick, he does know what kind of humor aarman has XP
pirates is aaaaaaawwwwweeeeesome!!!!!!!!!!!!
6 stars
out of 5? xP
ok the pirates is five stars!!!
Glad you liked it! Anyone who hasn't seen it yet, we'd love to know what you think once you have...
As puppylove says, it is out in the US and Canada now!
its kinnah sad thought, here where i live in cochabamba, people dont apreciate clay artistic films like i do, insred, pretty much what everyone is caring about is the avengers movie. im not saying is bad, the movie is fricken awesome but... people just dont care bout anything else that has hard work and efford in it anymore
Pirates is brilliant!! I want to go and see it again. 10 out of 10
Pirates was a great film. Saw it last night. Amazing. I'm a Christian myself, and this isn't me talking smack about Chritians, but, so many are bad-mouthing the film because of Charles Darwin's presence. Really? Can't we just put religion aside for one children's film?!
i dont think ts right aswell, just cause something do dont belive in appears in your like dosent mean u have to hate it and exagerate,besides, i DO belive in chares darwins evolution theory!
So do I. It's pretty much been proven. We have skeletons of half-ape half-human. That's physical evidence. Too bad some people aren't open enough to accept it.
its just a belive thing. its complicated. like i said, dont hate on something u dont belive in and accept and respect anothers opinions and they will respect u... also, dont try to force them to much into beliving something else...
that kinnah came out wrong but... u get the point
Yes, I understand and agree completely.
Everyone's entitled to their own opinion.
I am seeing it on Sunday,
I don't get why people are making a big deal about Darwin, I don't care if you believe in evolution or not,you can't deny Charles Darwin is one of the most influential people in history.
Saw it Friday, it was so smooth in animation. When it first started, Polly, became my first favorite character. Then as the movie continued I stared at my family wondering if they felt as excited as I did for another Aardman claymation to 'hit the big screen.' When the ending reached near I thought the final confront between the Queen and the captain was just over, but as soon as the dough exploded, SPOILER, and she tried to take Polly once again, the climax started alllllll over again. And just one side note, Mr. Bobo immediately came to me as Gromit, lol.
lad ; Really good movie! Got the novelty cup with the straw thing to remember it. But who could forget.... Until like out of the blue "WALLACE AND GROMIT NIGHT OF THE LIVING PIELLA BAKER" comes out and the Queen from the 'pirates' lands in West Wallaby Street in her air balloon..... Idk, I'm just making up stuff.....
wow! u really liked it! that good
i loved it!!!!
It was the best!! I loved the ending when Mr.Bobo was dress as a pirate.
Heheh! The vingear and baking soda reaction was quite hilarious!
I would give it, in the movie rating scale which is out of 4 stars, a 3 or 3.5.
I want to see it it sounds really good!
I liked the movie very much indeed; it was very enjoyable, with typical Aardman qualities such as nonsensical but moving stories. I was glad they didn't really force the issue of evolution with Darwin, though. Especially since the real Darwin said himself that if species were constantly evolving, the only way to prove his theory (theory, mind, not fact) would be if we found fossils of evolved/evolving creatures just as frequently (if not more frequently) than we found ones that match creatures still living today. Considering that out of the hundreds of thousands of fossils we've unearthed, we only have a handful of fossils that only "potentially" could be half-creatures, I think that, to quote Darwin himself on that subject, "my theory will absolutely break down". (I myself belive the potential half species are simply extinct individual, unevolved animals. This is especially true in the case of the archaeopteryx half-bird half-lizard, which I firmly believe must be pure bird. After all, the hoatzin is a species of bird alive today which has many characteristics similar to archaeopteryx, including claws; and the lung systems of lizards and birds are so radically different there could be no middle ground that would survive so the idea of them evolving is out of the question.)
I am in College and extensively studying to be a Zoologist, in case anyone is wondering where I got my information. And, by sheer force of evidence, I prefer to abandon the scrabbling attempts to prove evolution in favor of the more sensible and better-proven intellegent design belief. I also think science would better be spent if people quit wasting time trying to prove God/intellegent design doesn't apply, and work more on cures for diseases, and the stewardship of His world and His people.
I actually am all for Darwin's beleifs. Adaptations are scientifically proven and I view evolution as more of long term effects of adaptations. Nevertheless, I'm agnostic though, and don't believe in a God.
Adaptation based on existing species losing existing varieties to certain conditions of nature (leaving the one that survives behind) I agree with. But not full evolutionary theory, and this is why: people are just too desperate to prove it to a point where it's a case of "protesting too much" (as Shakespeare would put it"; and when they go to the lengths of lying about/not learning from mistakes just to keep the theory alive, you know somthing's wrong. You'd be suprised what scientists who try to prove evolution try to hide from the public to keep the belief alive; they can't, actually, but they only just succeed in smoothing it over because a lot of the public is just as desperate. Like the tooth fossil that was reconstructed to became "Nebraska Man" (a half-ape), but when looked at impartially turned out to belong to a dead hog. Or perhaps the fossil manufactured by some prankster that became another "prehistoric" man and was listed in textbooks for years before some intellegent-design-believing person noticed the thing was A) assembled wrong, B) made from pieces from three or four different fossils, and C) was held together in places by old and mummified chewing gum. Or maybe the fact that their system of dating rocks is based on a layers map that appears exactly NOWHERE on the planet in the order it's supposed to be; someone obviously just made it up. I could go on on this subject for quite a while; it's an extensive list. The whole problem people have with intellegent design is admitting there was an intellegent designer, which means there is someone in charge of our lives besides our own selfish selves.

Just read the Gnu Emacs Manual, it's a fun read on a quiet night
But basicaly, what the wikipedia shows of commands is enough to get started, all that LISP scripting and such, isn't what you want to dive into at first.
If you want to, just treat it as a simple text editor to begin with, it's just the fact that theres all these Meta commands, instead of point and click. It's the same if you wanna go the vim way.
And relaxe, you'll get your degree The main thing is not to give up, but to keep on trying...

BUFFALO - Erie County officials say they would like to fund a feasability study to investigate the possibility of building new convention center space, an issue that the county and city of Buffalo have dealt with for several years.
Maria Whyte, the commissioner of the Enivronment and Planning Department, said the current convention center on Franklin Street, built in 1978, is not large enough to attract major conventions to the city. Therefore, Whyte and several of her county colleagues want to raise funding for a feasability study, estimated to cost about a half-million dollars.
Depending on the study's results, the county could then move ahead with plans.
But that's a long ways off.
"We'll just have to take it one step at a time," Whyte said.
Former Erie County Executive Dennis Gorski pushed for a project several years ago, but last decade, those plans for a larger convention center stalled. Drew Cerza, the former president of the Buffalo-Niagara Convention and Visitor's Bureau, said in retrospect, it may have been a financial mistake to build a new center.
Now, though, he says it could be one piece of the puzzle to attract tourists to Buffalo, along with improvements to hotels and transportation systems.
"The bottom line, if you get a new convention center, somebody's gotta sell it," Cerza said. "Somebody's gotta sell this thing."
But again, any plans for a convention center are in the distant future and depend on the feasibility study. Cerza argues he'd take preliminary steps even before that study.
"If you build it, will they come? I don't know," Cerza said. "But I think there are some local people who can give you some answers.

It lurks in the shadows or just beneath the water's surface. When the monster finally appears, what's really scary is not whether someone is going to die, but the gruesome way it's going to happen.
For the past 12 years, some of the most powerful companies in Oregon have lived in fear of an unspeakable beast at the bottom of the Willamette River, a toxic freak that could figuratively eat them alive.
The monster has shown itself. It looks a lot like a carp.
The Willamette gives Portland its sense of identity: a working waterfront city connected to the wider world by what ships in and out of this river. The postcard views of bridges and barges have helped define Portland as a city that lives in harmony with its environment.
But the river's belly is also Portland's great embarrassment. Its sediments are stained with decades of toxic pollution, coating the river bottom with chemicals, metals and tar so potent the U.S. government is demanding it be cleaned up.
The fight over who must pay to do it has raged since before 2000, when the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency declared 5.7 miles of the Willamette to be a Superfund site. The EPA later expanded the designated area—and some would say the stigma—to a total of nearly 11 miles, running from about the Fremont Bridge downstream to almost where the river meets the Columbia.
The companies suspected of causing the pollution in Portland Harbor—this stretch of the Willamette where industry hums—have spent more than $96 million determining how polluted the sediments are and if they pose a threat to public health.
Depending on what the EPA decides, the cleanup could run as high as $2.2 billion and take another 30 years.
The reckoning starts Friday, March 30.
That's when 12 companies, plus the City of Portland and the Port of Portland, will deliver to the EPA a study that offers a number of cleanup options.
In the coming months, you're going to hear a lot about this study. It's going to be confusing, controversial and even tedious—but the future of the Willamette is at stake.
WW has sifted through the river muck to help you understand how this really works and why it matters.
We've found there are already two competing narratives here: One calls for scrubbing the Portland Harbor clean, and the other calls for a more cost-effective solution, even if that means burying the poison under more mud.
What happens now depends on those scary bottom fish—and exactly how far we're willing to go to make the monster go away.
How dirty is the river?
The water's not bad, actually.
But the river bottom is a different story.
The sediment at the bottom of Portland Harbor is a buffet of nasty chemicals: arsenic, mercury, metals, tar and even perchlorate, the main ingredient in rocket fuel. Near the Burlington Northern railroad bridge, for example, two abandoned pesticide plants once leaked deadly chemicals: one, DDT; the other, an herbicide that was used to make Agent Orange.
Most of the worst pollutants ended up in the river during the past 60 years, primarily from shipbuilding, ship-breaking, manufacturing and other industrial work along the Willamette's banks.
most common poison in the riverbed is also the most dangerous: an
odorless, pale yellow liquid called polychlorinated biphenyls, or PCBs.
They were widely used as coolants in the building of transformers and
electric motors until Congress banned their production in 1979.
It's good all that crap is down where it won't bother anyone, right?
PCB and other chemicals don't stay put. Tiny creatures that live in the mud (they're called benthic organisms) eat the chemicals. Then they're eaten by fish. Migrating fish, such as salmon, cruise through the harbor and don't nibble too many of these tainted invertebrates.
But the fish that call the harbor home—carp, smallmouth bass, crappie and bullhead—get fat on the toxic meals. The chemicals that stay in their tissue get passed on to people.
A study three years ago found that, in many scenarios, people eating fish from the harbor face cancer risks as much as 100 times higher than the EPA's guidelines. By far the biggest risk comes from those PCBs that travel from mud to fish to people.
A 2006 report from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services says that people at risk from Portland Harbor fish are not just sportsmen but members of immigrant and ethnic groups that traditionally fish for food: African-Americans, Latinos, Asians, Eastern Europeans and Native Americans.
Vietnamese and Slavic immigrants use carp to make soup and fish paste. Latino people traditionally catch bass, or tilapia. So do African-Americans.
Almost all of the above in this story is widely agreed upon.
Here's where it starts to get contentious: No one can say for sure who eats the fish and how much fish they eat.
I don't eat these cancer fish. Why should I care?
That's just the attitude that bugs the heck out of the Willamette riverkeeper.
Yes, that is Travis Williams' official title. The 41-year-old native of Milwaukie is executive director of the environmental nonprofit Willamette Riverkeeper, and he's putting pressure on government and businesses to clean up the harbor.
Williams argues the Willamette deserves a clean slate and a safe food chain for the wildlife that depends on it.
And anyone should be free to drop a line in the river without worry that there's a carcinogenic time bomb wriggling on the hook.
"It's about fish and wildlife, from the osprey to the bald eagle," Williams said. "And it's about the fisherman who is exercising a basic human right—to access a river and its species in a fashion that does not jeopardize his health. This is our one shot to get this right."
Well, let's get on with it! Why is it taking so long?
The Willamette is under the control of the federal program known as Superfund, which suggests there's actually a fund with a super amount of cash in it.
Not anymore. It used to be that the federal government taxed oil and chemical companies to fill up the so-called Superfund, and then went ahead and paid for cleanups upfront. Then the feds would hunt down and sue anyone who contributed to the pollution to reimburse the government.
But the Superfund is broke. Now, before a cleanup can begin, the EPA tries to get polluters to agree who will pay for it, and how much actual cleaning up is needed.
In the case of Portland Harbor, the EPA has identified more than 130 entities that may be financially responsible for cleanup. They include the City of Portland and the Port of Portland, but they're mostly corporations that did the polluting, or the companies that own the old sites.
Many companies are small or no longer exist. About a dozen companies with the bucks to pay for the cleanup hold sway in the Portland Harbor. They have yet to decide how those costs will be divided.
"I don't think you'll
find anybody who thinks it hasn't gone on too long and cost too much
money," says Rick Applegate, who managed the Superfund project for the
city for a decade until he resigned last year. "The agreement breaks
down there."
So these companies are trying to get away with not cleaning up the river?
Well, nobody's rushing to volunteer. But at the same time, a lot of companies have stepped up to work on the problem—if only to make sure they have some control over the cleanup.
Eight corporations, plus the port and the city, formed the Lower Willamette Group in 2001. That group has spent at least $96 million studying the river.
And many say they intend to do right by the Willamette.
"We voluntarily signed on," says David Harvey, environmental director for Gunderson, a barge- and railcar-maker with manufacturing sites along the Willamette's west banks that are suspected of having contributed to the sediment pollution. "For this stretch of the river, this is the most important thing that's going to happen in the next 50 years."
How they define that "thing"—and the story these companies tell—is aimed at keeping their exposure limited.
The Portland Harbor is home to more than 34,000 full-time manufacturing and shipping jobs. And some of these companies say an extensive cleanup threatens those jobs.
A 2009 report paid for by three companies on the hook—Gunderson, Schnitzer Steel and Vigor Industrial, which owns the Cascade General ship-repair site at Swan Island—claims a decade-long cleanup could cost $2.2 billion and 9,000 jobs.
So the study coming out Friday—that will be the plan?
Seven plans, actually.
In 7,800 pages, the Lower Willamette Group's feasibility study will propose a menu of options, ranging from doing little or nothing to dredging out nearly every hot spot of pollutants and hauling the contaminated sediment away.
The EPA will weigh those options and issue final recommendations. That could take another two years.
"It's the toolbox for the EPA," says Barbara Smith, a spokeswoman for the group. The options, she says, range "from doing nothing to very intensive dredging over many, many, many, many years."

I very seldom buy the same fragrance twice because I'm always on the hunt to find a new one. But True Star has been the exception! It is a vibrant,fruity scent that starts out bold, kind with a Cool Water and Acqua DeGiiola smell but dries down to a pineapple and honeysuckle melody. Love the fruity and acqua blend.

I used to wear this fragrance, but then they discontinued it. I was so disappointed. So excited to see it on my first visit to this website. It was always a favorite until they stopped making it and then I had to find something else. This is definitely going into my shopping cart TODAY!
Written by Roxy on December 07, 2013

Clara Barton, a nurse and humanitarian, founded American Red Cross in 1881 after learning of the Red Cross in Europe. During the very first meeting, there were 15 people that attended, and Clara became the first president of American Red Cross. Today, the American Red Cross supplies approximately 45% of the entire nation's blood supply, and without commercial first aid supplies, that job would be much harder to accomplish. Here are a few first aid supplies that we feel should be at your business too.

LOWVILLE Lewis County officials plan to set aside $50,000 from all-terrain vehicle permit fees for trail maintenance this year, with local ATV clubs asked to suggest projects for funding.
Well do what we can, new county Recreational Trail Coordinator Jacqueline L. Mahoney said at a special legislative Economic Development Committee meeting Friday afternoon.
While clubs have in the past received direct funding through the permit program that they could use toward their own trail projects, this years change eliminating clubs share of fee revenues means all program funding will go to county coffers. Fridays session was called to come up with a policy designed to help clubs continue to do trail work in spite of the loss of direct funding.
Committee Chairman Richard C. Lucas, R-Barnes Corners, suggested that ATV clubs be aided on a per-project basis, with clubs directed to submit trail maintenance and development proposals to Mrs. Mahoney.
Youre going to have to prioritize, Mr. Lucas told the trail coordinator.
Mrs. Mahoney would then coordinate times for county summer employees and club volunteers to handle priority projects, with available permit funding to be used to cover material, sign and equipment costs, she said.
While creating new trails and lessening dependence on opened roads is important, it is essential to first make sure we can maintain what we have off-road with the limited funds available and quickly address any environmental issues, Mr. Lucas said. We want to stay on the good on that side, he said.
Any trail repairs related to wetlands would obviously be the top priority, with other projects pushed back if the need arises, Mrs. Mahoney said.
Its scheduling, she said.
Committee members also directed the trail coordinator to address a request from the Highmarket ATV Club for permit money to help pay for a bridge project, even though it was completed before the funding policy was set.
Distribution of permit funds to clubs based on their off-road trail mileage was also discussed, but Mr. Lucas suggested that direct funding of projects would be more effective, given the limited funding now available through permit fees.
Since the inception of the countys permit-based ATV trail system in 2009, the county budget annually anticipates $80,000 in program receipts, with the Lewis County Chamber of Commerce receiving a 10 percent administrative fee to sell the permits.
Permits had cost $40 for an ATV owned by a member of a club in the Tug Hill Adirondack ATV Association and $80 for a machine owned by a nonmember, giving riders an incentive to buy a $25 club membership and bolstering membership rolls.
However, lawmakers in March voted to change the ATV permit fee to $65 and eliminate any club member discounts, with the intent of paying clubs only for trail work they complete.
While the move should increase county revenues dedicated to ATV trail funding, legislators are concerned about a decline in permit sales stemming from club dissatisfaction over the switch and hope the new policy will renew club support for the permit system.
In coming years, the legislative committee suggested that 70 percent of permit funds be retained for trail work, with 10 percent apiece set aside for data processing/advertising, law enforcement/education and administration through the chamber.

DePodesta talks about Matt Harvey and the Year-After-Effect
Matthew Cerrone, Lead WriterMets RHP Matt Harvey is among 11 pitchers at risk of injury this season based on the Year-After-Effect, according to Tom Verducci's report for SI.com.
To read more about Verducci's list, and why Harvey is on it, check out this post on MetsBlog from Wednesday.
Last season, Harvey threw 110 innings in Triple-A, but was shut down during September after making just 10 starts for the big-league club.
Earlier this week, I wondered if Harvey will have a similar limit in 2013, since he's on Verducci's list, which is based on protocols established by Rick Peterson when he was pitching coach for the A's under Sandy Alderson and Paul DePodesta. The Year-After-Effect has been mostly debunked, but since Alderson and DePodesta were in Oakland at the time this was more relevant, I had questions about it's current place in developing young pitchers…
DePodesta was kind enough to respond to my question and told me:
"We are acutely aware of each and every pitcher's workload throughout the season and, in fact, maintain multi-year plans to get younger players ready for a Major League workload in a reasonable and gradual fashion. While there are some general rules of thumb, we look at each pitcher on an individualized basis. As far as Matt Harvey is concerned, his workload did increase by 34 innings in 2012 over 2011. However, some of that increase was due to an increased efficiency of his work. In fact, he made just four more starts in 2012 than he did in 2011, so on average he was working deeper into games in 2012, though he maintained similar pitch counts. Fortunately, we had this happen in a number of instances in 2012. Furthermore, as the year stretched on, and Matt approached and surpassed his 2011 totals, both in starts and innings, we adjusted his recovery time to provide him extra rest. There's always a careful balance between stressing players so that they grow (like weight lifting) and protecting them from doing too much. We simply try to be responsible and methodical in the way we go about it."
Basically, it sounds like Alderson and DePodesta have moved on from Peterson's research, as have most. In regards to Harvey, the way I understand it, he isn't on a strict innings limit, though the team will weigh his overall workload throughout the season in the context of his career. So, I suppose Harvey could be shut down again if he's exerting himself or pitching in lots of stressful innings, and that projects in a bad way, but that's not likely to happen given his track record, size and athleticism.

TB is streaming for those who want to see how the game functions.
Paying for a founders pack is a lot more than getting an early invite.
The amount of exclusive content they include makes it well worth it.
Anyone else see the 900 minute waiting queue to get in? Hahahaha
I just got in in under 3 minutes :P
game is kind of un playable, the client has memory leak, it uses over 12 GB of ram if you play over 20+min lol...
And Ghost claims everywhere... Claims that do not exist and you can not build there...
And if you want to kill your HARD Drive, please play this game, my SSD is going crazy, the load on the drive is abnormal with this game.
This game has lots of technical bugs, not counting the in game ones....

Game is kind of unplayable if you ask me. Claiming land is essential to be able and test the game and right now it's kind of impossible to do that. -.-
Been trying for hours now, no luck, anywhere.

There are so many reasons to love the fashion-show season, but aside from the obvious--viewing the upcoming trends, enjoying the distinctly chic cities on the circuit, and seeing flashbulb-worthy street style--one of the things we like best about this biannual event is what goes on backstage. Yes, we are suckers for behind-the-scenes coverage, especially when it involves our favorite models in their own pre- or post-show outfits. See, we're always intrigued by what these slim specimens wear when they're not styled in head-to-toe runway looks, especially since the results are often just as intriguing. On that note, we're pleased to report that we've finally sifted through all of the photos from the recent S/S 11 shows and have gathered the crème de la crème of model-off-duty ensembles for your perusal. In addition to just being inspirational, today's installment of What They Wear: Backstage has plenty of fall wardrobe ideas to get you in the cold-weather spirit. Whether it's examples of how to wear a chunky-knit dress or style suggestions about balancing lots of layers, there's sure to be something for everyone, so enjoy!
Mixed Neutrals
Neutral hues, especially when styled together, have certainly taken center stage on and off the runways this season--check out Trend Report: Mixed Neutrals to see what we mean--and from the looks of things, it was a popular outfit choice for models backstage too! For example, we spotted the stunning Ruby Aldridge addressing this smart dressing idea at the Valentino show, wearing a pair of cocoa-colored trousers paired with a white tee and black tuxedo-style blazer. To complete her nuanced ensemble, Aldridge accessorized with a distressed brown leather belt and small tan and brown satchel. We saw a similarly savvy neutral mashup by Jacquelyn Jablonski at Narciso Rodriguez. Like Aldridge, Jablonski (who was our September MOD) selected a tan bag, albeit a slouchier messenger style, to finish off her outfit of silky taupe shorts and white button-up shirt. If you're looking to create a neutral mix of your own, make sure to pull out your favorite pieces in these key hues--think: army green, camel, chocolate brown, gray, tan, and taupe--and pair them as you wish. In addition to what you may have already, we recommend checking out Equipment's Hard Feelings Satin Blouse ($198) in Mink, Topshop's Flannel Camel Boyfriend Open Jacket ($135) and ASOS' Tailored Flannel Wide Leg Pants ($62). Now, when finalizing your look, it's important to keep your accessories in the same spectrum. That being said, we suggest picking up a chic carrier like Kimichi Blue's Sophisticated Satchel ($68) or Topshop's Metal Handle Mock Crock Detail Cross Body Bag ($65), or you can always try a belt like True Religion's Leather Belt ($143), if it's Aldridge's directional look you're after.
Bold Elements
Although a majority of today's catwalkers selected dark hues and neutrals for their on-the-go ensembles, we noticed a few beauties making bold statements via a mix of eye-catching patterns or a big dollop of vibrant color. For example, backstage at Valentino, Frida Gustavsson turned heads in a bright red dress with a modest silhouette, which she styled with all-noir accents, while Hanne Gaby Odiele caught our attention in contrasting prints--plaid wide-leg trousers and animal-print loafers--at the Rag & Bone show. Now some might consider these to be unconventional choices for a MOD, but we definitely appreciate their daring selections. If you're interested in creating your own model-inspired standout look, our first recommendation is to try a dress in a lively hue as the foundation of your outfit. Modcloth's Dish to Pass Dress ($65) has a retro look that's similar to Gustavsson's pick, or if you're seeking an updated silhouette, Winter Kate's Lucy Dress ($285) is a perfect choice for the holiday season. Looking for your own version of Odiele's quirky combo? Just pick up J. Crew's Glasgow Plaid Wool Pants ($130) and Zara's Leopard Print Moccasins ($80), and we guarantee you'll be the talk of the party.
Chunky Knits
It's safe to say that these fashion-forward insiders are always brilliantly clad in the season's must-have essentials, so right now that means our MODs are all about the season's chunky-knit pieces. With so many brands showing covetable options--Marc Jacobs, Prada, and Rag & Bone--it's no surprise that our style subjects are embracing the trend's cozy spirit. We love how Daiane Conterato (seen here at Marni) cleverly juxtaposed the sweetness of her slouchy nude sweater with a pair of black leather shorts and lace-up boots for a superb transitional look. But of course, these knits are not just a top option for cardigans and crewnecks; they also makes for the perfect winter frock, as demonstrated by Magda Kulicka at Jil Sander. The Polish native cinched her oversized sweater dress with a leather belt, and rounded out her comfy outfit with a pair of vintage chocolate brown boots. Are you still looking for that perfect chunky knit? Topshop's Knitted Slubby Back Boxy Top ($85) will certainly keep you warm this winter. If it's Magda's oversized dress you're after, check out Zara's V-Neck Poncho with Hood ($80). It's a spot-on alternative you can wear all season long!
On-Trend Outerwear
The S/S 11 Fashion Weeks started in mid-September, so it's no surprise to see our lanky subjects sporting great outerwear options ranging from lightweight jackets to heavy coats. Speaking of the former, Sigrid Agren (at Michael Kors) and Jac Jagaciak (at Marni) were both snapped wearing one of this year's essentials: the army green flak jacket. Not only are their picks perfect in keeping with the ongoing utilitarian trend, but these lightweight layers are also a must when temperatures begin to cool down, so make sure to try Urban Renewal's Army Surplus Jacket ($48) or Sandro's Army Jacket ($655) before it gets too chilly. However, sometimes our industry pros required a little more coverage when they were running from one show to the next. For these situations, ladies like Alana Zimmer (at Akris) opted for a charcoal, double-breasted coat over a white button-up shirt and black pants, resulting in a perfectly chic ensemble. A week earlier at the D&G show in Milan, Sara Blomqvist showed up in a khaki trench coat, which she wore over a pair of light-wash skinny jeans and peep-toe ankle booties. Both of their picks are must-buys styles, so be sure to snag either J. Crew's Dapple Coat ($350) or French Connection's Macks Trench Coat ($298) to emulate their on-trend outerwear.--Jessica Baker

Your recording will be saved in the TwoTrack's internal 128MB memory or on a micro SD or SDHC card up to 8GB (sold separately) for more than 100 hours of uncompressed WAV, or thousands of hours of MP3.
At the end of your session or rehearsal, you'll have a 16-bit, 44.1 stereo wav file, or an MP3 at up to 192kbps so you can listen to your performance and move it to your computer, music player, or phone. The TwoTrack is the most affordable way for musicians to record outside the studio.

Thanks to the TwoTrack's dual condenser microphones, you'll have two tracks to work with in virtually any music software from GarageBand to Pro Tools.

The TwoTrack is an inexpensive way to get you or your band heard.
Beyond music applications, the TwoTrack is great for recording interviews, business meetings, speeches, nature sounds, lectures, or just notes to yourself.
Flexible Recording Anywhere
The TwoTrack is portable, easy to use and packed with useful features. You can easily mount it on standard camera stands or on the optional Alesis Mic Stand Adapter, which allows the TwoTrack to be placed on a mic stand. If you have a favorite microphone that you'd like to record with, the TwoTrack features a convenient mic/line input right on its side for mono or stereo sources. You can even mount and connect the TwoTrack to compatible video cameras and greatly enhance the sound of your videos.
The TwoTrack's microphone gain control is ergonomically designed to be right under your thumb or forefinger for easy adjustment, and you can easily monitor each mic's level on the TwoTrack's backlit LCD screen. A red LED indicates when you are recording and turns off whenever your signal clips, giving you a visual indication that gain adjustment is needed. If you don't want to worry about adjusting the gain manually, simply turn on the automatic gain control and the TwoTrack will monitor and adjust levels automatically to keep them consistent and virtually eliminate distortion.

Estimated Cost of Attendance
The first step in determining your financial need is to calculate the estimated cost of attendance at UW Oshkosh. The Financial Aid Office establishes cost of attendance budgets based on averaged and actual costs from reported data, survey data and Bureau of Labor Statistics data. These budgets include tuition and fees, books and supplies, room and board, and other expenses.
Note: Your student account is the best and most accurate statement of direct educational expenses. Student account information and estimated cost of education can be found on TitanWeb. Students bills generally appear on TitanWeb approximately 2 weeks before the start of an academic term.
Tuition is based on full-time enrollment for undergraduate students (12 credits). It is based on 6 credits for graduate students. The full tuition cost includes segregated fees and is billed on a semester basis.
and Supplies
The estimate of books and supplies is based on average cost for undergraduate and graduate students. Your actual costs may be more or less than the average costs based on your course requirements.
Room and Board
There are two housing costs factored into the cost of education. Students living with parents are considered commuter students. Students living on- and off-campus will have housing costs calculated that equal the average of the on-campus housing for the year. Food is also calculated differently for commuter and on- and off-campus students. The cost is updated each year based on the projected increase in the university food services costs.
Day-to-day living expenses that don't fall into any other category, such as clothing, medical, recreational expenses, toiletries and insurance.
Roughly based on trips to school with standard course load.
