Would be funny if MH3U sold better in NA than Japan... #1 Agree(6) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply PopRocks359 + 1028d ago Funny thing, Jim Sterling did a video talking about the big three JRPGs for the Wii and brought up sales figures of other Japanese games on the Wii, and in many instances, like for Muramasa: The Demon Blade (awesome friggin game btw) they actually sold significantly more in the States than in Japan. There is indeed a market in the West for Japanese games. They just need the right push. #1.1 Agree(8) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply CouldHaveYelledUiiW + 1028d ago Agree- I hope we can put to bed the silly notions that Eastern developers need to make games exactly like Westerners. #1.1.1 Agree(5) | Disagree(0) | Report MegaLagann + 1027d ago Well there's way more people in NA than in Japan so it's no surprise a lot of Japanese games sell better over here, and yeah Muramasa is one of my favorite Wii games. What hurt Japanese companies bringing games over was the money conversion. With the strong Yen and weak US dollar for example, it costs these companies quite a lot more to bring a game over, but recently the value of the Yen has gone down so expect more localizing. #1.1.2 Agree(1) | Disagree(0) | Report MegaLagann + 1027d ago @CouldHaveYelledUiiW To be fair, I've never heard anyone say Japanese games need to be more like Western games, in fact quite the opposite. The main complaint I heard this gen is that Japanese developers were trying too hard to be like Western developers. Which is fine at times, COD was the big hit this gen and companies wanted on the gravy train and while Japanese devs taking inspiration from Western devs has led to some great games like Dark Souls or Xenoblade, but it's also led to some crap like Quantum Theory *throws up*. Japanese devs need to remember there's a reason why people fell in love with their games, and it wasn't because it was like COD. Look at Ni no Kuni for example, it's without a doubt a Japanese game, it doesn't try to act like something else, it embraces it's heritage and that's why people love it and want to see more of that. And considering the sales of Ni no Kuni so far, it's a success. #1.1.3 Agree(1) | Disagree(0) | Report CouldHaveYelledUiiW + 1027d ago @MegaLagann "Well Said" Bubble-Up I agree. I have heard more Eastern developers say that they need to change to a Western style. But I have heard this from both sides. Personally, I like the diversity but I also like convergence, cause I like to try new things. Meaning: I would love to see Nintendo try to make a WoW type MMO just because Blizzard and Nintendo are different (for many reasons) and I wonder what they would do differently- Or: I like the back and forth- for instance seeing how Western Comic artist and Manga Artist influence each other. But if everybody all over did everything alike it would get REAL boring. #1.1.4 (Edited 1027d ago ) | Agree(0) | Disagree(0) | Report Manchild + 1027d ago "If you recall, Monster Hunter Tri G is an HD up-port of a Wii game for the Wii U."Ignorant BS written by Kevin, the Editor in Chief of this website. MH3 Ultimate is over twice the length of MH3, its not a port or a remake, its a huge expansion pack with upgraded mechanics & teh GRAFIX. MH3U is also a completely different game because of the inclusion of new weapon classes, armors, status/ailments etc. #2 (Edited 1027d ago ) | Agree(3) | Disagree(1) | Report | Reply Add comment You need to be registered to add comments.

I've been very happy with my 50mm "C" lens for my RB.
It gives me excellent, high resolution results both in the centre and at the edges.
It is a slight bit lower in contrast then my other lenses, but not in any problematic way.
It was very well used when I got it, and the shutter started acting up a bit, but after a CLA it is now working fine.
EDIT: I'm attaching a shot with the 50mm that originated on Ektachrome. What you see is the result of it being scanned at medium resolution, and then resized and sharpened a couple of times, but I think it might give a sense at how much fine detail the lens can handle.

US troops sent to Iraq to assess the humanitarian relief operation are coming home, but that's not necessarily the end of US military operations there, Pentagon officials say.
The deployment of 130 additional US troops brings to more than 1,000 in Iraq. Pentagon officials say they are not there to fight, but that ground troops may be needed to rescue the Yazidis.
To protect Iraqi civilians, the US has struck Islamic State positions. In response, the militants – including foreign fighters, some of them Westerners – are threatening the US itself.
US operations against Islamic State (IS) fighters are 'limited in scope to protect US citizens and facilities' and are 'unlikely to affect' their advances in Iraq, a top Pentagon official says.
Obama sought to reassure Americans that the attacks in northern Iraq would not lead to another US war. But the air strikes will have limited impact against the dispersed militants without ground-based personnel, some analysts say.
Retired Gen. Stanley McChrystal, forced to step down after published remarks critical of the president, endorsed former Marine Seth Moulton for a US House race – prompting speculation that he's open to run himself.
Pentagon officials insist that the death of the highest-ranking US officer in America's post-9/11 war effort will not change US strategy in Afghanistan. Mission No. 1 is to train Afghan counterparts ahead of US combat forces leaving.
Former CIA Director Woolsey tells Congress of a doomsday scenario in which a nuclear-blast-triggered electromagnetic pulse takes down the US power grid, leading to starvation and death. Some experts decry 'hysteria' over EMPs.
Veterans of the Iraq war are troubled by the advance of the Islamic State. Some feel their sacrifices were all for naught, others say it's time for Iraq to stand on its own.
The office of the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction, in its latest report on the $104 billion project, takes the Pentagon and Afghanistan government to task for a broad range of questionable policies.
Pentagon analysts are grappling with what this growing unrest in the Middle East means for US national security. Here are the top three ways the advance of the insurgent group the Islamic State in Iraq and violence in Gaza could endanger US national security.
The outgoing head of the Defense Intelligence Agency says that new players on the scene are more radical than Al Qaeda, and the core Al Qaeda ideology has lost none of its potency.
Burn pits are open-air areas where the US military burned water bottles and plastic-foam cups, as well as human and medical waste. The VA has set up a registry for troops to detail their concerns.
Some 2,000 combat vets surveyed by the Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America reported 'the crisis with suicide' as their number one concern.
Despite the collapse of Iraqi defenses in June, there are still 'extremely capable' units in Iraq that the US 'should not write off,' a top State Department official tells Congress.
Former Procter & Gamble CEO Robert McDonald says he aims to use his experience digitizing that company to help the embattled VA free up people to take better care of veterans.
Army Staff Sgt. Ryan Pitts was awarded America's most revered military decoration, the Medal of Honor, for his remarkable valor in one of the bloodiest battles of the 13-year war in Afghanistan.
Hamas this week showed it has drones at its disposal, forcing Israel to use a Patriot missile to shoot down one that had entered its airspace. Its drones are low-tech, but they have the attention of US defense analysts.
Some defense experts say it's likely Russia has provided Ukrainian rebels with surface-to-air weapons capable of taking down the Malaysian passenger plane. Pentagon officials say they cannot confirm that.
Gen. Joseph Dunford, the top US commander in Afghanistan, tells senators he is 'not confident' the Afghan security forces will be able to sustain themselves after US troops leave.

text: I'm a little confused about something very simple. From a chemistry perspective I am told about how many electrons fit into each type of orbital. For instance, 1s and 2s can only have two each, the 2p orbitals total 6. It is composed of the Px, Py, and Pz and only two can be in each set, while the exclusion principle applies. When I look at the spectrum of He I in the Nist lines database http://physics.nist.gov/PhysRefData/ASD/lines_form.html where you enter He I and then 10 -100000 I get a series of wavelengths at the beginning of the data beginning with 584 Angstroms. This uninterupted series represents that transition of electrons from the 2s2p orbitals to the 1s. The problem that I am having is understanding why there are 10 p orbitals listed. Shouldn't there be only six. To further complicate the problem I have an equation that reproduces this series mathematically, and it includes 5 more lines in the same sequence, which are not even classified by the Nist, but recorded there. Am I to suppose that there are 15p? What is going on here?

Regulator Tells American Marine to Raise Capital or Merge
A regulator now has ordered troubled American Marine Bank to raise capital or merge.
A Nov. 20 directive from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp., announced this week, states that within 30 days of the effective date, the bank must sell enough shares or obligations to become adequately capitalized.
Or, it must accept an offer to be acquired by a holding company or combine with another bank.
The Bainbridge Island-based bank hired an investment bank in August to help it raise capital, but acting President and Chief Executive Officer Renzo Lucioni suggested recently that the effort hadn't yielded much.
When asked Thursday whether any merger effort is under way, Judy Thorpe, senior vice president of community banking and marketing, said, "I can't talk about that right now."
The bank was caught holding a number of real-estate and bank-participation loans that defaulted when the economy soured. It announced a $20 million loss in the first half of 2009. It recently became owner of the embattled Kingston golf and housing development White Horse, which owed it nearly $6 million in unpaid loans and interest.
The directive states the bank is "significantly undercapitalized" and that "the bank's condition continues to deteriorate."
It states that the FDIC sent a letter Aug. 6 to the bank requiring it to submit a capital-restoration plan by Sept. 18.
The plan submitted by the bank was "unacceptable," according to the directive, which went on to state that the bank's management has not demonstrated the ability to return the bank to sound condition.
The FDIC then gave the bank more time to submit another capital-restoration plan, but the directive soon followed.
The directive also lays out a number of practices the bank must operate under. Bonuses or pay hikes to directors or officers of the bank must first be approved by the FDIC, for example.
The directive comes shortly after the bank entered into a pact with the FDIC in which American Marine agreed to strengthen capital, maintain adequate loan-loss provisions, have strong management and make sure its board of directors was plugged in to routine workings of the bank.
Total deposits with American Marine, as of Sept. 30, were $308 million, down from $321 million a year ago, according to the FDIC.
Total assets as of Sept. 30 were $373 million, down from $408 million in September 2008.
The FDIC insures consumers' deposits up to $250,000.
American Marine opened in 1948 as Bainbridge Island Bank. Today, American Marine has 11 offices west of Puget Sound and in downtown Seattle.

Leaders from M. D. Anderson and Banner Health broke ground today on the M D Anderson Banner Cancer Center. An event to mark the occasion took place on the campus of Banner Gateway Medical Center in Gilbert, Ariz.
Targeted to open in fall 2011, the new center will deliver cancer care to patients in Arizona through M. D. Anderson's collaboration with Banner Health, the state's leading nonprofit health care system.
"Banner Health is proud to join forces with M. D. Anderson to fight the battle against cancer," says Peter S. Fine, Banner Health president and CEO. "This groundbreaking marks a major milestone in the vision of our two organizations to provide access to a new level of cancer care in Arizona."
Announced in May, M. D. Anderson Banner Cancer Center will include a 120,000-square-foot, three-story building dedicated to outpatient services including physician clinics, medical imaging, radiation oncology, infusion therapy and many support services. It's this building that began construction today. The center will treat inpatients on two floors inside Banner Gateway Medical Center.
"Breaking ground on this facility is exciting and real evidence of the commitment that our combined teams have made to those afflicted with cancer in Arizona," says John Mendelsohn, M.D., president of M. D. Anderson. "It's exciting to see our big plans show tangible progress as we prepare for the real work ahead -- reducing the burden of this disease."
M. D. Anderson Banner Cancer Center will support the multidisciplinary care approach pioneered at M. D. Anderson, which includes individual areas for specific cancers. It also will feature many of the healing environment concepts upon which Banner Gateway Medical Center was built in 2007, along with the most advanced technology and electronic recordkeeping systems.
The center represents a $107 million project funded by nonprofit Banner Health through bonds. In addition, the Banner Health Foundation will engage the community in a fundraising campaign to support this project.

text: This COULD have been a "thumbs-up" video, but it was just WAY too damn short to be anything great. The actress had some really nicely built big natural titties hanging down low, her big nipples swaying to and from while she was taking cock from behind.... she was a decent "moaner", which is to say she certainly was no "dead fuck". Wish it would have been a lot longer, showed actual penetration, some tittie sucking, and a lot more close=up shots.

Politics peeled bare. The second darkly satirical thriller from the authors of The Marmalade Files.
POLITICS JUST GOT DEADLY. A body pulled from the murky waters of Lake Burley Griffin links Canberra, Beijing and Washington in a titanic struggle where war is just a mouse click away. Veteran reporter Harry Dunkley is chasing the scoop of his career, hunting for his best friend's killer. Navigating treacherous political waters where a desperate minority government edges ever closer to disaster, he delves into a cyber world where there are no secrets.
Friendship and loyalty give way to betrayal and revenge as Dunkley stumbles into the sights of the mandarins who wield real power - and who'll stop at nothing to retain it. Political insiders Steve Lewis and Chris Uhlmann bring biting wit and behind-the-headlines insights to this sharply observed sequel to the bestselling The Marmalade Files, once again lifting the veil on the lust and lies that stain the corridors of power.
About the Author
Steve Lewis has been reporting politics in Canberra since 1992 and has survived the near collapse of the Fairfax media group, three Prime Ministers, Mark Latham and a career switch from The Financial Review to the News Ltd tabloids.
Chris Uhlmann is one of Australia's best-known and most respected political broadcasters. He has earned a deserved reputation for his fearless pursuit of the nation's politicians as political editor and co-host of the ABC's flagship current affairs program, 7.30 Report.

Comments about The Mandarin Code:
Had no idea that The Marmalade Files was the first book of a trilogy, until this came out. It suffers from "second book" syndrome a bit - the writing isn't as zingy and action-filled as the first novel, but it leaves you hanging for the next one. The authors, two press gallery journalists, have filled this book with insights into life among Canberra's foreign affairs cognoscienti, with outstanding results.

Fix the Platinum portal
The timeouts on the Platinum portal are not effective and cause needless problems.
Example 1. I was just in submitting a ticket via the portal. Filled out a number of fields and was working on the description. I was switching back and forth between the portal and my ePO looking up the exact details. Adding verbage to the description. This was going on for about 5 minutes. Came back to enter more stuff after being away no more that 15 seconds to look something up and I was timed out for inactivity. LOST EVERYTHING IN THE TICKET.
Example 2. When looking up stuff in the Knowledge base I often get timed out, even while never leaviing the portal page. If one takes the time to read several KB articles that is all it takes. If I take the time to read something that is interesting but off my assigned target it can consume enough time to time me out. The 30 second warning NEVER HAS WORKED ANY TIME IN THE LAST 4 YEARS. This simple discourages one from using your KB database.
These would seem like simple fixes.

Picture: Andrew Lee of Honor Society Mix 94.1 presents The 4th Annual Kid's Mix 2009 Featuring Disney Channel teen stars held at Sunset Park Las Vegas,...
It was an up weekend at the box office for Disney as its Pixar-produced Up opened with $68.11 million, beating last year's debut of WALL-E -- and less than $2 million behind Pixar's two biggest hits, The Incredibles and Finding Nemo . But it was a down weekend for the box office as a whole, with total ticket sales slightly below what they were for the same weekend a year ago, when the premiere of Sex And The City and the second week of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull together took in $101.60 million all by themselves. The top twelve films this weekend earned $161.01 million, while last year's grossed $163.99 million. Another downer The critically well-received horror flick Drag Me to Hell -- horror flicks are rarely well-received -- took in a modest $15.83 million to place fourth in the final results. (By contrast, last December's critically slammed Saw V opened with $30.1 million.) Monday's estimates had put it in third place. But despite the down weekend, year-to-date revenue stands at $3.61 billion, up 13.63 percent over last year. Attendance is up 11 percent.
The top ten films over the weekend, according to final figures compiled by Box Office Mojo (figures in parentheses represent total gross to date) 1. Up , Disney, $68,108,790, (New); 2. Night at the Museum Battle of the Smithsonian , 20th Century Fox, $24,353,868, 2 Wks. ($104,150,268); 3. Terminator Salvation , Warner Bros., $16,433,365, 2 Wks. ($90,949,924); 4. Drag Me to Hell , Universal, $15,825,480, (New); 5. Star Trek, Paramount, $12,613,727, 4 Wks. ($209,313,884); 6. Angels & Demons , Sony, $11,353,340, 2 Wks. ($104,913,439); 7. Dance Flick , Paramount, $4,743,636, 2 Wks. ($19,084,907); 8. X-Men Origins Wolverine, 20th Century Fox, $3,873,377, 5 Wks. ($170,843,712); 9. Ghosts of Girlfriends Past, Warner Bros., $1,911,401, 5 Wks. ($50,021,779); 10. Obsessed, Sony, $657,001, 6 Wks. ($6,750,0481).

In case there was any doubt about Vince Young's qualifications, outgoing Texas president Bill Powers provided a reference about the former quarterback.
"Vince Young brought a national championship to Texas, returned to the Forty Acres to earn his degree," Powers said, "and will now help other students reach their goals and change the world."
His NFL career done, Young is returning to the university's Division of Diversity and Community Engagement, beginning Sept. 1 as a development officer, making $100,000. He'll raise funds for programs that help first-generation students and those from low incomes. As first reported by the Associated Press, Young was hired by direct appointment, which does not require a job posting.
For all his well-documented professional and financial struggles, Young will always be remembered warmly by Texas alums for one brilliant 2005 season, providing the exclamation point against USC for a national title.
That legacy may make him a good fit for his next job. The programs include the UIL, among other initiatives. In the NFL, the book on Vince Young always involved talk about wasted potential and a need to change. In Austin, they like exactly the way he is. He could be an ambassador for the university, much like former Heisman Trophy winner Earl Campbell, now the special assistant to the athletic director.
Those who know Young say he's especially intrigued about working with young people as part of the job. He returned to Texas and completed his degree last year.
"The position with DDCE is a great way to stay connected to the university and help make a difference in the lives of underserved kids across the state," Young said.

It's been the best of times, and it's been the worst of times, all in the same year for Marka Anne Garcia.
Garcia, who graduated from Robertson in May, swept skills competitions for Golden Arm and Golden Glove honors at the North-South softball weekend and was a most valuable player on the North squad.
Whether his uniform was Cardinal red and white or Don green and gold, Nicholas Aragon was known for giving his baseball teams a shot in the arm.
The same held true over the weekend with Aragon wearing the colors of the North All-Stars.
The recent WLV graduate hit safely in each of three games to help the North defeat the South twice and take the series.

The chief and deputy chief of the Gallinas Volunteer Fire Department have been suspended pending an investigation into allegations that they physically assaulted another volunteer firefighter.
"We got a complaint from a volunteer, and he complained that he was physically assaulted by the two superior officers in that department," San Miguel County Manger Les Montoya said.
Tobias Lucero is the department's chief and Lorenzo Montoya is the department's deputy chief. Both are volunteers.
The latest graduation figures released last week by the state Public Education Department contained good news for West Las Vegas High and not so good news for Robertson High.
The four-year graduation rate for West Las Vegas High shot up 9.9 percent from the prior year while the rate at Robertson dropped by 5.6 percent.
The PED's latest numbers show that 81.8 percent of the students who began at West High as freshmen graduated four years later with the class of 2010. The graduation rate for West High's class of 2009 had been 71.9 percent.

SANTA FE — Nearly four dozen state workers, most of them in the Public Education Department, are losing their jobs next month because of layoffs as agencies deal with budget cuts.
The State Personnel Board approved plans Friday to lay off 44 workers in the Education Department, the Economic Development Department, Regulation and Licensing Department, Commission on the Status of Women, State Land Office and Organic Commodity Commission. The job losses take effect July 1 with the start of the new budget year.
With the Fourth of July holiday just a few weeks away, San Miguel County officials issued a notice Thursday reminding the public that fireworks are banned in the county.
"The drought conditions have persisted. The terrain is volatile. Any firework, or any spark can set off a disaster fire," County Fire Chief Russell Pacheco said Friday.
The fireworks are banned under the Level III fire restrictions imposed throughout the county in April. The county fireworks ban is not in force within the Las Vegas and Pecos municipal boundaries.

Food and Drink Related Songs
20 Jun 2008, 5:05 de echa83A good title complements a song, they said, but what about a song with food or drink in its title? Have you ever noticed that a song that's humming in your ears at the moment mentions a food or drink in the title? How many are there, you ask? Apparently, there are a lot of them. So, what's with all these food and drink related songs? What are the stories behind these titles? What does the title mean? Does the title relate to the lyrics? What makes an artist came up with a thought "Uh, Quiche Lorraine sounds cool, why not create a song about it?" (little did I know, it's actually a song about a pooch and has nothing to do with a certain classic French egg dish), or even with the craziest title you wouldn't ever think of before, like this one, "The Half-Eaten Sausage Would Like to See You in His Office"? Who would ever think a song with such title really exists? Well, these might be some questions that cross our minds when we find one. …
A Game of Lyrics
28 Nov 2007, 5:49 de SamuraiMooseIf you've been on the website for five minutes, you've probably seen something like this before.
The irony contained herein is that I rarely pay any attention at all to lyrics until I am fully acquainted with the musical structure and rhythmic workings of a song. But here you go - you ought to know how this goes by now, 40 songs that came up on shuffle, I'll provide the first lyric and a list of artists (one song each) and you guess the songs. Italic lyrics are guessed lyrics.
1. On candy-stripe legs the spider-man comes, softly through the shadow of the evening sun. Lullaby
2. Wear the grudge like a crown of negativity; calculate what we will or will not tolerate. The Grudge
3. You don't have a clue what it is like to be next to you.
4. So if that was a response, then you can call this reaction.
5. Slow down, this is slipping through my mind, this conversation has run out of time. F.C.P.R.E.M.I.X., F.C.P.S.I.T.S.G.E.P.G.E.P.G.E.P.

Types of Lavender that grow best in your region
Lavender loves full sun (at least 8 hours per day or more). Lavender's native habitat is the area around the Mediterranean Sea which has dry, chalky/rocky ground, so it thrives on hot, dry, rocky, or sandy soil. Good drainage is a must - too much rain and it drowns. Some people have great success growing the hybrid Lavendula x-intermedia, var. Grosso, which tolerates the hot dry climate and produces a good and useful essential oil. This hardy hybrid is the workhorse in many fields throughout the world. Another lavender species that does well in cooler climates are the varieties of Lavendula...Read More
Pruning lavender
There are many ways to prune lavender. 'If you like roses you'll love Lavender' Lila Avery-Fuson says. 'Lavender, like the rose does not like wet feet and loves to be cut hard, just remember the harder you cut it the more it shows!' Her advice is to not be afraid to take it down each year within 2/3 of the root ball just after the last frost in spring. This will encourage new growth and a strong stem length along with a judicious application of fish emulsion. Sarah Richards says "Give lavender a 1 ½ green crew cut." She says you measure the green from where the woody stems...Read More

Getting up close and naughty with rough, tough and sexy Brett tempts her out of her comfort zone and into the arms of a man who's not from her wealthy world. She's after safety and he's chasing justice, but the fire between them might reveal that all they want is each other.

Page Four asks: Which Palm Springs party girl has been caught canoodling with an out-of-town "Adam"? Eve Caruso keeps her finger on the pulse of Palm Springs and reports every spicy celebrity tidbit to her loyal readers. She knows everyone in this town-except that mysterious hunk who just strolled into the exclusive spa where she's conferring with hot new starlet Jemima Cargill. Nash Cargill-nicknamed "The Preacher" by all his rowdy friends-is here to protect his flighty sister from a stalker, not fall for a sexy society columnist. But Eve has the perfect name-she's wildly tempting. Nash should resist; after all, her luscious lips speak trouble, her two sisters are too interested in their affair, and the rest of her family defines "notorious." But Eve is more vulnerable than she seems, and Nash has never said "no" to a lady in distress . . .

Peeking into the World of Thom Browne and More

The Internet's must-read links of August 6, 2013.
See how Thom Browne lives, chart Kanye's VMA style evolution and the Aaron Sorkin guide to speaking with lawyers.»
There was plenty of good style on display during last night's Tony Awards, but our favorite was Zachary Levi's double-breasted midnight-blue tuxedo.
He wasn't one of the big names on the red carpet—you might recognize him as the titular character from Chuck, and his chances of becoming a household name might slightly improve once the next Thor movie hits theaters—but he managed to land the best tuxedo on Broadway last night. Due in part to the deftly tailored suiting, but we're mostly digging that tipped pocket square—a little accent that goes a long way in getting noticed in the more dapper circles of the red-carpet circuit.
Of course, earning MOTH honors is another very strong step in the right direction.
Just when you thought awards season was over...
GQ has just announced this year's crop of Best New Menswear Designers—a coveted honor they've been bestowing upon the young Billy Reids and Thom Brownes of the menswear world for the past decade now—and this year's four winners run the gamut from laid-back surfer chic (Aviator Nation) to tailored gear with Savile Row lineage (Bespoken) to Jay-Z's favorite chino maker (Baldwin) and menswear's newest favorite bag maker (Ernest Alexander).
If you recall, last year GQ upped the stakes by having each winner design a small capsule collection sold exclusively at Gap across the nation. You'll have to wait until fall to get your hands on this year's batch of well-priced handsomeness, so to tide you over, take a look at our favorites from the inaugural collaborations.
Life of Pie: For your Oscar information, Daily Intel turns each best film nominee into an easily digestible pie chart.
Sheer Madness: In typical Internet-scouring fashion, BuzzFeed has tracked down the 15 craziest Oscar fashion moments of all time.
The Sinceriod: College Humor has devised eight new punctuation marks that should help lessen the confusion over what tone your next text message or email is conveying.
Spooky Sex: Turns out, everything we've ever heard about the salacious world of spies and clandestine operatives is true: they're a randy bunch, according to New Republic's inside man.
We couldn't help ourselves. With the Oscars only days away and awards season coming to a head, we felt honor-bound to weigh in on the subject of style, cinema and the intersection of the two.
So we collected our memories of the past year's worth of handsomeness on film and tried to nail down exactly what made each film stylish—much like the actual Oscars, we're breaking down the movie by individual garment performance, not just handing out awards willy-nilly.
So without further ado, the Oscar for Best Cardigan in a Supporting Role goes to...»
Handsome Harmony: The gents from across the pond at British GQ ranked the most stylish men at the Grammys.
Can't Stop the Sideboob: Meanwhile, the folks at HuffPost Style identify the lady lawbreakers of the Grammys' dress code (and discuss things like "bare fleshy undercurves").
Candid Camera: People snapped a dozen or so photos of off-camera celebrity mingling—and speculated whether play dates were discussed.
Mumford's the Word: And just in case you missed last night's festivities entirely, Rolling Stone recaps it all.
Perhaps the best part about last night's Fey-Poehler-helmed Golden Globes was that all the tuxedos on the red carpet kept it on the straight and narrow. (It's a trend we've been readily noticing for a few awards shows now.)
There weren't many faults to find in anyone's tux—aside from the usual suspects and nitpicking bow tie sizes—so we had a hard time nailing down the winners. The competition was strong. So strong that we think Clooney may have been temporarily dethroned from his notch-lapel tuxedo reign. But in the end, there were a few contenders who became champs last night. And it had nothing to do with who ended up on the podium.
So without further ado, the three real winners of last night's Golden Globes.»
Lovebirds: Bellerose is back with more of the same awkward ornithological lookbooking. [Esquire]
Velvet Fever: GQ spends a moment with Justin Bieber to dissect his leather-tank-topped, drop-crotched and studded-slippered getup at the AMAs. [GQ]
Gangsta Chap: Leave it to Put This On to dig up this video of a rapping dandy. [PTO]
Stone Cold: The blokes at Esky across the pond have got a sneak peek at some never-been-seen Rolling Stones photos from when they bunked up at that French villa. [Esquire UK]
Tuning in to watch Modern Family win Emmy Awards is kind of like watching Donald Draper digitally arouse a waitress.
Thankfully, Michael J. Fox (aka "Kempt 5′7″ and Under All-Star"), who has battled Parkinson's disease since the first Reagan administration, carried the night.
"I'm steady as a rock," Fox said at the podium every which way.
Once a McFly, always a McFly.
An ungodly amount of ink has been spilled over Olympic style on and off the podium already—especially at the expense of US swimmer Ryan Lochte. (We're inclined to give the guy a break—we should be rooting for our countrymen, not tearing them down.) But we couldn't resist mentioning the gloriously tie-dyed 1992 Lithuanian Olympic basketball team, dubbed "The Other Dream Team." Yes, that really is officially sponsored tie-dyed gear. Yes ,those are fanny packs. And yes, those are bronze medals they're collecting in Barcelona—sharing the same podium as our fabled champs. The story is the stuff of legend (and a Sundance-darling film). A rag-tag bunch of athletes from a country only two years removed from the iron grip of the Soviet Union who were in danger of not even going to the Olympics until The Grateful Dead swooped in with a last-minute sponsorship (which should explain the tie-dye and dunking skeleton on their warm-ups) and who, against all odds, won a seemingly unattainable medal—uplifting a small, wayward nation in the process. This is exactly why we watch the Olympics every four years.


text: Well...wonder if they will continue to carry the rebranded Foma? I'm not sure what the paper is, tried and wasn't crazy about it, but I like to shoot some Foma and their store brand makes it fun to play with. If I had to pay name brand Foma prices, even from NY, I probably wouldn't bother and would shoot only Kodak/Ilford/Fuji.
