I stumbled across your site after scouring the world wide ugly sweater net universe for some fugly christmas sweater inspiration

 I stumbled across your site after scouring the world wide ugly sweater net universe for some fugly christmas sweater inspiration. You see this is our group of coworkers, friends, and in years past total randoms.. 4th Annual Ugly Christmas Sweater bonanza and during our current state of down trodden economy, unemployment, bailouts, and continuing Britney Spears media coverage I want to make this event special, nay I feel obligated to make this a success and wave my ugly sweater round like a helicopta..because what else do we have when everything around us seems to be falling apart?  I will tell you what we have..friends, family, ugly sweaters, booze and therefore GOOD TIMES.  So cheers to you and your ugly sweaterness and please enjoy some years past throat chocking nylon and polyester greatness.  Cheers."

Bei den Illustrationen soll es übrigens nicht bleiben

Manchmal erlangt ein Kleidungsstück genau so einen Kultstatus wie sein berühmter Träger, einige davon (die der Fraktion Sweater, mehr oder weniger, angehören) werden in einer Illustrationsreihe gewürdigt…
Ned Flanders, der gutmütige und fromme Nachbar der Simpsons, kennt man nicht ohne seinen grünen Strickpullover. Dadurch hat er sich als Markenzeichen bei uns eingebrannt. Das dürfte eine Grund sein weshalb die Jungs von  It goes to 11 ihn in ihrer Illustrations-Serie “Iconic Sweaters Drawn From Pop Culture”. In dieser Garnitur zollen sie Sweater von Musikern, Filmfiguren und Bands ihren Tribut. Wer erinnert sich nicht an Bill Cosby’s bunte Pulloverauswahl, Freddy Krugers zerschlissenen Ringelpulli oder Lebowski’s lässigen Strickmantel, aber auch Steve McQueens blauer Rollkragenpullover, den er fast ausschließlich in der Serie Bullitt trug, und vielen anderen Kleidungsstücke wird Tribut gezollt. Bei den Illustrationen soll es übrigens nicht bleiben, das Künstlerkollektiv, plamt gerade die Sweater zu reproduzieren (ich reserviere mir schon mal des Dude’s Strackjacke).
Geniale Artworks, die ausnahmsweise nicht Menschen, sondern leblose Gegenstände zu dem erheben, was sie wirklich sind: wahre Ikonen.

I’m really excited about sandboxing and also really terrified

Apple’s sandboxing technologies make it possible to control at a very fine-grain system level exactly which system resources an application should be allowed to access. It offers control over reading and writing  files, opening  network resources, and much more.
I’m really excited about sandboxing and also really terrified. Apple has given us, thus far, a limiting set of entitlements that don’t quite cover everything that reasonable apps want to do, or even everything that Apple itself has approved as acceptable behavior in the Mac App Store. Yet Apple has made it clear that it wants to see all apps adopt sandboxing, and the writing is on the wall that in particular, participants in the Mac App Store should be prepared for the day when non-sandboxed apps may not be approved for sale in the store.
For us developers looking into sandboxing our own apps, it can be tough to wrap one’s head around exactly what privileges need to be requested. One way to go about it is to sandbox your application with the strictest of controls (basically disallow everything disallowable), and see what breaks. Then you could add back whatever entitlements are necessary to get things working again.
On the other hand, it would be handier to have the system simply tell us what kinds of behaviors our app is engaging in, and what the corresponding entitlements would be to allow it to work even while sandboxed. Thanks to a tracing mechanism in the sandbox, this is in fact possible. Furthermore, you can use a command-line tool to apply arbitrary sandbox profiles to an application without having to modify the application itself.

Sweaters are not just used as body warmers

Sweaters are not just used as body warmers. Jeremy Scott created this unique sweater as one of fashion knacks that you can have.
What would happen if you wear a sweater pattern map of the world as it is printed in the book atlas? Surely it would be unique and make you appear attractive without the need for excessive accessories.
Jeremy Scott, a designer who has often worked with Adidas to create various models of shoes. The designer is known for his works unique is not only creative in the design of shoes, but also in terms of fashion, one of which is the sweater.
Sweater with the pattern of world maps from Australia, Asia, Europe, Africa and Europe are printed on the sweater with a bright blue color is dominant. Selection of the right color, because blue is usually used in the map as the color of the ocean. To the mainland. Jeremy Scott gives a different color for each continent. The composition of the color that fits and not excessive.
The designer of this sweater seems to be really copied a folder on his work. You can see the lines of longitude and latitude lines with black color decorate this sweater. Not only that, the scale used to image the mainland are also taken into account, so the sweater is actually a perfect duplicate of a map.
If you want to have this sweater, make sure that your body is pretty slim. If the sweaters are usually made loose, then Jeremy Scott makes his work very fitting sweater in the body, until all your curves will be printed perfectly. Are you interested? It seems you do not need to fear getting lost while wearing the sweater on this one.

I'm hoping to find the time to write something up about it in the near future



One of my all-time favorite opening credit sequences -- Pablo Ferro's wonderful design combined with Noel Harrison's haunting rendition of Michel Legrand's The Windmills of Your Mind - what a perfect way to set the mood for Norman Jewison's The Thomas Crown Affair, that timeless romantic thriller from 1968 that hasn't lost any of its charm or style. I like to pretend that the John McTiernan/Sting remake is just a remnant of a bad dream.
Several people asked about the alt-text clue (Don Quixote on the brain), which was simply a rather lame reference to the film's theme song. You know, tilting at windmills and such....
As some of you may have seen on my Facebook status, I had lunch with Susan Ray last week, and as a result I've been watching her late husband's films for the past few days. I just now finished The Lusty Men, which I hadn't seen in many years, and I was completely blown away by the editing. Ray tends to cut on motion, and there's a fluidity to the film that is nothing short of spine tingling. I'm hoping to find the time to write something up about it in the near future. (Why this isn't on DVD is a complete mystery...)
This week -- a film that quickly goes downhill after the credit sequence. Yeah, yeah, many love it, but....no. Sorry. Name the film. Submit your answers to this address. Good luck!
