My Akatsuki run down.
First off the akatsuki are the most powerful shinobi in the naruto world. Each one is able to caoture a biju or its host. Theres so much still left to learn but from what we do know there no boy scouts. I'll give my opinion on whos the strongest and why. One thing that bothers me is the rings. Zetsu places so much on those rings there must be a connection with that statue they use to seal the biju in. On this I think the statue is a wood element because Nagato (which has been proven as Pain) can use any jutsu he wonted since the age of 10. Plus wood jutsu is the only one able to control biju which is what made shodaime hokage or hirashima senju the most powerful ninja of his era. We really dont know if thats the same statue that shodaime used or not its possible it is and isnt but we dont really see how shodaime controled them. All thats know is that he used the necklaces like the one naruto has on his neck to control them. This organization is the main enemy in shippuuden and as of now have 7 biju sealed away and almost had 8 if it wasnt a bunshin of some sort. Who is the real leader of akatsuki? This question is on kishimoto has safe guarded for a long time know one knows. Itachi told us that after madara was defeated by shodaime he created the akatsuki to hide his movements which is why he took the form of tobi the goof ball. Recently Pain said he created the akatsuki for world domination and world peace all at the same time. How ever tobi was seen giving pain orders to capture the 9 tails. This causes more questions if pain started the akatsuki how did he recruit madara over to his side, as it by force or by a releated idea? If madara created akasuki was nagato pain yet and how did he win over the man who has the tools of god (rinnegan created the ninja world and all its jutsu)the power to destroy the world or save it from ruin? I'm sure will find out later on but very interesting questions indeed.
Now my break down from weakest to strongest as seen in the manga so far.
To start off my recap coming in as the weakest so far is.....
We only see him being able to fuse with the wilderness around now and we never see him fight. Something interesting is during the sealinging of shukuka the one tails pain ordered zetsu to use the body with the longest range. We dont know if he has more then one body but what we do know is this jutsu his unlike attack prevention like orochimaru used in the chunin exam because zetus literaly becomes one with the surrounding while orichimaru is seen being sucked into the tree and was able to be pulled out my anko and striking shadow snake hands. Because we havent seen much of his powers he gets my lowest rank. Also we seen in the manga tobi/madara reporting to zetsu on his meeting with team hawk and pain. We do know Zetsu is one for the senior members because he made it clear that he hasnt been in konoha for the same amount of time as madara saying it been to long far to long since we've been in konoha. This ha something to do with there barrier jutsu I would guess (the one that detected pain).
Second up is...(jashinsama dont kill me over this)
Its not that his ability isnt great thats not the case its just it only works on close range slow fighters like asuma. If asuma would hae used wind instead of fire he would have won by slicing him up from a ranged distance. What is known is hes an experiment from the hotspring village under the jashinsama cult. He has to kill all the time as he said to the the ghost cat 2 tails its a sin not to kill. This is important because if he dosent kill he loses his immortality. The fact that he has to get the opponents blood and eat it is pretty hard if there faster them him like kakashi was in there fight. Overall hes still strong enough to be akatsuki with his ability but not a strong one he even admits to being the slowest of all the akatsukis members.
Third up is...
Even though she is most likely the only paper using shinobi she is pretty powerfull. The only reason jiraiya beat here was he knew here secret. Think about it most fire and water jutsus are straight on attacks and she would be able to wrap you up from the back or side unless your using water wall which is A ranked and would exaust the user fast. Shes also very usefull with here ability to turn into millions of paper butterflies. During this arc the hunt the 9 tails arc she had several shinobi wrapped up in papper about to kill them we dont know if she can harden the paper but we know she is strong enough to take out serveral jonin level shinobi with here paper.
Forth up is...
Everyone might be saying wait hes the strongest or close to it but with his know powers not really. Hes only shown us that he can make attacks phase through him and that he can teleport with out using hand seals. Beside the sharingan hes nothing more then a goof off. any skilled close ranged ninja could counter his attacks from teleporting around and phasing there attacks which would tire him. Lets say him verses rock less rock less is pure taijutsu not to mention faster speed wise and he uses no chakra if tobi stuck to only those moves he would lose from chakra over use and exaustion. We know hes Madara and the Mizukage as said by Kisame and we also know the san daime hokage was stronger then any of the other kages so it stands to reason that madara isnt very strong unless hes been hiding his moves. We know hes has the highest level of sharingan and that hes well over 100 yrs old. He also helped itachi kill the uchiha clan and turned sasuke against the leaf. Besides that and the fact that he used 9 tails to attack the leaf which is the event that caused naruto to have the beats sealed inside him hes still a mystery.
Fifth is.....
Hes about half way up in rank and with the right reason. He took out garra by himself and lead to the capture of 3 tails. He almost beat sasuke with the cost of his life if not for manda who was kille in sasukes place the avanger would have died. His bombs are a forbidden jutsu know to his village of the stone or rock. Hes an artist and loves to blow things up aswell as admire other art forms. Hes the only member we seen being recurited into the team when he lost to itachi.
sixth is....
This man was awesome not only did he kill the third kazekage a.k.a the iron master he was the best puppet master to ever live in the sand village. In the end he died from saskura and Chiyo-basama's team work hes by far is the most impressive shinobi in the akatsuki. He had over 100 puppets in play and destroyed an entire nation with them. Not to mention his poison which was cured by sakura the replacement for tsunade (there the best healers in the shinobi world) I think if it was naruto and kakashi he may have won because of the iron sand kakashi would be forced to use the mangekyou sharingan more then once on his red secret jutsu 100 puppet display.He is also a senior member.
Seventh is...
We all know he has the most chakra of akatsuki and his skill is awesome he almost beat guy just playing around I wont to see him get serious. His water jutsu is at a higher level then the second hokages for sure and his shark frenzy is almost unstopable. Did I mention he beat the lava master and 4 tails all in one go?(there the same person the 4 tails host). His strenght is compareable with tsunades as he held asuma down with one hand on his sword and asuma used both this trench knives. What adds the gravy to the potaoes is samehameda and its ability to cut and absorb chakra if he slices near you your chakra is gone. He is also a senior member.
Eight is...
His powers are one to not be messed with. All though hes was tough to beat with all his attacks he isnt fit to be crowned # 2 or # 3 because if you killed one of his hearts while out side his boby he would lose it. No one had the chance to do it since hidan was around but I'd say kakshi could have taken him out with yamato's help with some effort. I had to determine if he was stronger then orochimaru and from seeing them both fight oro is stronger by a small margin and it stands to reason that he could take on itachi and win is susanoo isnt used. He uses his villages most powerfull jutsu the fear of eath grudge which he stole from the hidden waterfall village after hes escaped prison and killed the elders. Cant blame him since he lost to shodaime and was put in jail for it. He is also a senior member.
nineth is...
Orochimaru the sannin with pale skin. He could be stronger the itachi or at the same level since he is stronger the jiraiya (because jiraiya doesnt wont to hurt him) and itachi said hes no match for the toad sage even with kisames help. He lands # 3 because he never showed us his real power only his snake moves. Weres all his forbidden jutsu at I was let down by his moves but he was able to hold his own with 4 tails naruto and even had 4 tails pinned down. Hes the former hokage canidate that wasnt picked in favor of minato so he fled the village after being found out for killing and experimenting on leaf shinobi. He killed the third hokage but he was dying anyway from the reaper death seal so its a coin toss on that on.
Tenth and the #2(if your an afro samurai fan) is.....
Itachi Uchiha
His powers are supreme and his speed is a blur. Itachi is by far the most impressive uchiha thus far. We already know how strong the moon reader and shining heaven jutsus were but the storm god jutsu was to powerful. We still never saw his real power he was playing with sasuke even madara mocked sasuke saying he wouldnt have won if he didnt wont sasuke to kill him. He was a senior member and the killer of his clan and best friend. I'm amazed at how fast he hit sasuke with moon reader. Its a wonder why he never fought pain himself to end the akatsuki, not saying he has a chance with the six paths but he would have faired better then j-man but he would have died sooner to.
The # 1 and eleventh is....
Is there anything he cant do? He is pretty much way to powerfull even though naruto was able to kill 5 realms god realm is about to pull a rabbit out of his hat. Its seen he can use more then on jutsu and the jutsu get stronger the closer he is to nagato. What cant he do is right can summon infinite monsters, bring himself back to life, steal your soul, fire off missiles, absorb all your chakra and push or pull you to his will. The fact that there six of him and each one can do something unique its hard to win fighting him and if he sticks you with his black spear your done you'll get a dose of his chakra and your finished unless you have helpers like jiraiya did. We know he wa orphaned in the third great war and was taught by jiraiya along side yahiko and konan (konan is in love with him for those who dont know see the episode with pain telling hidan there goal he says for love and we see konan making a nasty face about it). His friend was almost killed and he awakened the rinnegan. Yahiko died and them pain was born. Yahiko is god realm and he is protected by the other pains at any cost. Pain killed salamaber hanzo the main who gave the sannin there name and killed jiraiya and shizune. Were waiting on kakashi but he killed a lot of the villagers when he destoryed it with shinrai tensei, and banshou tensei is no childs play either and now we can only wait to see chibaku tensei next week.
The akatsuki is truely a group of the most powerfull shinobi to ever exist and they all have freakish abilities from turning into paper to stealing hearts and using then to live longer and gain all the elements.
This sums up pein's akatsuki run down post your input and thoughts and if you liked it digg it or bookmark it its not going any where lol.
Been hurt by a certain one. so im not really into a good mood right now
yeah, ok, i'm not sure why you have so much time on your hands to write this much stuff, or maybe you just copy and pasted it but the point is barely anyone is going to read it.
i read two or three sentences and gave up.
Being born a Bird doesn't mean you can teach others to fly.
just an advice few that if no one will read a post that long
any way sorry but i'm not trying to be mean but for your beautiful eyes i will read it all
GOD is always there....... YES he is............ Bless you
Very well written but sort of long. I wish you could edit this and shorten it so everyone can post more feedback, since you did a really great job with this.
Re-reading Lovely Bones.
I say it is to long, most would not read it due to the length, truth is i skipped it at first then went back up then went damn will this ever end, Sorry if I am being mean about it.
will come on as often as possible.
Wow, nice piece of art man.
You put facts with each character, I try to find the word or so to come up with an aswer to who is the weakest to the strongest by facts, and how to prove with an example.
Yes, it was a long too read, but reading books for me, it was like a piece of cake.
Yes, I agree, Sasuke brother could have won the battle like I stated due to the mange, he seem to be toying around with Sasuke like he was still a kid, but then again if he was sick like Madara stated, then he wouldn't be able to fight at 100% due he was dying in the process.
Yes, as for Och, I hate the fact they didnt have him use some of his other jutsu that he learned over the years, not just the snakes or shit.
As for Zetsu, We havn't seen what he does or how he fits or how he made it into that group.yes he can spy and eat ur dead brother body but beside that he is useless.
Over all I don't feel like explaining more on each person, cause it will make it hard to read :p
Boku No Hero Academia is Here!
sasori should be ninth
the reason he lost so easy is because the people who make the anime needed to get people exited about watching the show otherwise he would have wasted
now itachi is better but i think orochimaru and sasori are tied
and to all of you who are saying this is to long YOU DON'T HAVE TO READ IT!!!!!!!!

Preparing for life after Bernanke
Ben Bernanke is on his way out. And the soft-spoken chairman of the Federal Reserve may be taking his economy-juicing easy money policy with him.
President Barack Obama made it awkwardly clear this week that he has no plans to renominate Bernanke, a Republican who helped guide the nation through the worst financial crisis in a generation, to a third term.
Story Continued Below
Bernanke would not address his own tenure at a news conference on Wednesday, saying he is too focused on his job. "We just spent two days working on monetary policy issues and I would like to keep the debate, the discussion, the questions here on policy," he said. "I don't have anything for you on my personal plans."
( PHOTOS: Ben Bernanke's career)
But it will almost certainly fall to Bernanke's successor to eventually unwind the extraordinary measures the Fed has taken in recent years to try and drag a sluggish economy out of its brutal financial crisis hangover. The end of easy money won't come right away, but it will end, no matter who follows Bernanke.
The prospect of the post-Bernanke era raises a series of thorny questions for global markets and the United States economy as well as political players inside and outside the Beltway.
There remains serious doubt that the economy and the stock market can fly on their own without extraordinary Fed assistance. If the Fed bungles the transition from its current policies and the country stumbles back toward recession, it could spell big trouble for Democrats like Hillary Rodham Clinton hoping to replace Obama in 2016.
( WATCH: Bernanke: 'I don't have anything for you on my personal plans')
The fact that Bernanke was often the lone operator in Washington capable of administering emergency aid to the economy during a period of Beltway gridlock is another reason market players and economists are so worried about the Fed transition. They fear that Bernanke's successor, partly due to political pressure to back off and partly due to signs the economy is picking up, will move too fast to stop buying assets, possibly tanking the stock market and reversing the recent housing market recovery.
And Republicans, who have long wanted to curtail the Fed's broad power to pump new money into the economy to try and bring down unemployment, could use the confirmation hearings for Bernanke's successor to further press their case while demanding that more hawkish conservatives be added to the central bank.
Bernanke tried to ease some of the market jitters on Wednesday, saying the Fed has no immediate plans to curtail its "quantitative easing" program, wonk-speak for the central bank buying up huge piles of Treasury and mortgage debt each month to keep short-term interest rates low and encourage businesses and individuals to spend.
( Also on POLITICO: Bernanke meets privately with Issa)
"Monetary policy will continue to support the recovery even as the pace of economic growth and job creation picks up," Bernanke said. But Bernanke and the Fed also said risks to the economy have "diminished" and that the central bank plans to start dialing back the program later this year and conclude it next year as long as the unemployment rate heads down toward 7 percent.
Bernanke used a driving analogy to explain the Fed's plan, saying it might ease up on the gas but won't hit the brakes.
But market players worry whether the next Fed nominee will have the same skill behind the wheel as Bernanke, who is widely credited with helping the U.S. avoid a second Great Depression.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (Mar. 8, 2008) - ETSU is going Dancin'.
Sophomore post Latisha Belcher (Martinsville, Va.) scored a career high 24 points and three teammates scored in double figures, as the ETSU women's basketball team made history, earning the Lady Bucs' first ever trip to the NCAA Tournament field of 64 with a 75-72 win over Jacksonville Saturday afternoon in the Atlantic Sun Conference Tournament Championship game at Allen Arena.
The Lady Bucs did it by outlasting a frantic 12-2 run by the Dolphins in the final four minutes.
Seeing its 14-point lead dwindle to one, 68-67, with 2:19 to play, the Lady Bucs made some stops and received clutch shots from senior Kelly Turman (
The win moved ETSU to 21-11 overall and tied the school record for most wins in a single season. The Lady Bucs have also won eight straight and 15 of their last 16 games. ETSU's current winning streak ties the longest in program history as it has only been accomplished four different times.
Belcher's stellar play earned her Tournament MVP accolades as she averaged 19 points, seven rebounds and 5.3 steals over the three-game stretch. The
Senior Michele DeVault (
In the first half, Belcher ignited the Lady Bucs as she scored eight of their first 12 points to take an early seven point advantage, forcing
The Lady Buccaneers shot 38.2 percent (13-34) and
ETSU continued to hold its 16-point advantage as they led 51-35 heading into the first media timeout of the second half. Once again DeVault stepped up when the Lady Buccaneers needed her, because her three from the corner ended a brief JU rally and put ETSU up 49-33.
After the Lady Bucs held a double digit lead since 7:37 left in the first half, JU finally was able to lower its deficit to nine, 56-47, with 9:40 remaining. The Dolphins actually pulled to within eight on three different possessions, but ETSU had answers for each threat. Turman came through with a huge layup, putting the Lady Bucs back up 10, 62-52, with less than seven minutes left.
Then, with ETSU leading 66-52, the Dolphins posted their run to get within a point, but the Lady Buccaneers proved they wanted the tournament bid more. After being defeated in the championship game to
For the game, ETSU was 27-for-61 (44.3 percent) and held JU to 27-of-72 shooting (37.5 percent). The Dolphins, who like to shoot the three, only made four and shot a dismal 21.1 percent from behind the arc. The Lady Buccaneers' five extra free throws proved to be critical as they made 19 to JU's 14. Both teams grabbed 43 rebounds and scored 14 second-chance points off their offensive boards.
Along with Belcher, Evans (10 points) and Turman (11 points) were the other two ETSU players to score in double figures. Belcher finished 8-of-11 from the field, 6-of-7 from the free throw line and grabbed eight rebounds. Eight of Evans' points also came from the charity stripe and she finished with five rebounds and two assists. Turman was 5-of-7 from the floor and produced big numbers in only 12 minutes of work.
The Lady Buccaneers will now enjoy some time off as they have to wait for the rest of the field to file in during the next week and two days.

5 Tips for Dealing with a No-Entryway Entryway
Many of us don't come home to a big foyer, but there are many ways to make the best of what space you do have. With some strategic purchases and placements, small bits of wall or a funny hallway can function as stylish and efficient entry areas.
1. Work with all of the wall
Even if you only have two or three feet of wall space to use, you'd be surprised how much you can fit. Work vertically, as in Image 3, with hooks and hanging storage to maximize your entry area. If you're going horizontally, opt for consoles or shelving with a narrow profile.
2. Edit and prioritize what needs to be right by the door
If you have a closet that can store coats, you might decide not to dedicate hooks for them by the door (Images 4 and 5). Otherwise, you'll want a few, and coat storage might be your entryway priority (Image 7). No matter what, you'll want to keep track of your mail and keys.
3. Make things work double-duty
In the first image, the desk functions as a regular work spot, but it's also a place to plunk down a purse and stow mail out of sight. The coat rack in Image 8 has an integrated shelf on top, and the last image shows a bench that also helps wrangle shoes. I wouldn't be surprised if the upholstered ottomans in Images 2 and 5 open to reveal shoe storage too.
4. Make the entry area a continuation of the rest of your home
Instead of focusing on the lack of a dedicated entry space, concentrate on making the space play nicely with its very immediate surroundings. In the first image, the entry desk chair coordinates with a lounge chair. In Image 4, the table that stores keys, etc., fits in perfectly as a side table to the couch next to it. In Image 9, the area adjacent to the door is reserved for hooks, but additional entry storage comes in the form of shelves that fit right into the room.
5. Have fun with the details
Incorporate a cool mirror, a favorite art print, interesting hooks, and good-looking baskets.

Great Spaces: Union Collegiate Academy, Union Public Schools, Tulsa, Okla.
District redesigns high school dining program to resemble college atmosphere.
When more than 1,000 students were to be added to Union High School, in the Union Public School District in Tulsa, Okla., Lisa Griffin, R.D., director of child nutrition, knew she needed to upgrade the cafeteria to be able to handle the influx. The school was also undergoing a face-lift to become the Union Collegiate Academy. After a bond issue was passed, the district used the funds to transform the traditional high school into a collegelike space, with the goal of 100% graduation rate of college-ready students. To fulfill that mission in foodservice, Griffin's team designed a dining program with nine different concepts and 20 seating areas, spread throughout the school.

Managed in cooperation with Florida Forest Service
Betsy Purdum
Blackwater WMA, the Blackwater Carr Unit, and Blackwater Hutton Unit, are comprised of more than 200,000 acres in Okaloosa and Santa Rosa counties and is one of the largest state forests in Florida. The forest's natural stands of longleaf pine are among the best remaining examples of the longleaf pine/wiregrass ecosystem that once covered much of the southeastern United States. Other natural communities found on the area include hardwood swamps, mixed loblolly pine and hardwoods, and pitcher plant bogs. Some of the most beautiful stands of Atlantic white cedar in the state are found along the banks of the Blackwater River and its tributaries. The forest is critical habitat for many listed plants and animals, including the red-cockaded woodpecker, the pine barrens treefrog, the gopher tortoise, and the panhandle lily. Blackwater's outstanding forest and water resources offer excellent opportunities for hunting, fishing, wildlife viewing, hiking, biking, camping, swimming, horseback riding, and paddling. Children under the age of 16 are required to wear a helmet when horseback riding on public lands. For more detailed information go to Nicole's Law . All horseback riders must have proof of current negative Coggins Test results for their horses when on state lands. A portion of the Florida National Scenic Trail traverses the area and is open to hikers year round.

Take One Pot by Georgina Fuggle
Consider the humble cooking pot — that's what Georgina Fuggle is asking us to do in this vibrant and mouthwatering cookbook. With just one pot, you can simmer soups and braises, steam a batch of mussels, make a creamy risotto, bake a savory pudding, and...well, just about anything. Put away your other pots and pans; one pot is all you need for the recipes in this book!
Quick Facts
• Who wrote it: Georgina Fuggle
• Who published it: Kyle Books
• The angle: One pot to rule them all
• Number of recipes: About 90
• Recipes for right now: Borlotti Bean, Tomato & Sage Soup; Polenta Bake with Tomato, Feta & Mushrooms; Sweet Potato & Coconut Dal; Drunken Mussels with Hard Cider, Leeks & Chorizo; Chicken & Sausage Cassoulet; Braised Duck Legs with Juniper & Ginger; Molasses Baked Beans; Boned Lamb Shoulder with Walnut & Mint Pesto
• Other highlights:
For the most part, the recipes stay pretty close to European and American roots with lots of rich meat-centric stews and braises made with root vegetables and beans, but Fuggle does include the occasional culinary foray into things like Indian curries and Moroccan tagines. All in all, this is hearty, stick-to-your-ribs fare — perfect for these last few dreary weeks of winter.
I also realized partway through that I misunderstood Fuggle's goal slightly. While these are all one-pot dishes, they don't all use the same pot. Dutch ovens take center stage, but Fuggle also puts smaller casserole dishes, roasting pans, and even simple squares of foil to good use in this book. The entire recipe from start to finish is always cooked right in that one baking vessel — nifty!
• Who would enjoy this book? Cooks making do with just a few pots (or just one!) in their kitchen, anyone stuck inside during a snowstorm

Think in terms of gravity units. 3 gal. of 1.080 = 240 gravity units (3*80=240). 5 gal. of 1.051 = 250 gravity units....pretty much the same.
I hate to kick up the old "rehydrate vs. sprinkle" debate, but you should be fine with 1 pack even if you don't rehydrate. A lot of the side-by-side comparisons I've seen are fairly ambiguous over which method results in a better tasting beer. In my limited experience with beers similar to the one you're planning on brewing, sprinkling 1 pack of dry yeast has given me clean, tasty beer with no off-flavors.
Test after test have shown that people are confident in their opinions.

Incumbent Havelock Commissioner Will Lewis has filed to run for mayor in the Nov. 5 city election.
Incumbent Havelock Commissioner Will Lewis has filed to run for mayor in the Nov. 5 city election.
Lewis will be challenging incumbent Jimmy Sanders, who filed his paperwork to seek election last week. Lewis filed on Tuesday afternoon.
Sanders faced a challenger in 2009 for city mayor and held back Chuck Bernard by 13 votes.
Sanders, a former city commissioner who had also served as mayor when elected in 1995, has been Havelock�s mayor since 2005 when he left his commissioner seat to run against Matthew Jones.
Lewis, who became the city�s youngest commissioner when elected in 2005 at the age of 28, had earlier said he was undecided about running for a third term as commissioner when the filing period opened on July 8.
Along with the position of mayor, two commissioner seats are also up for grabs in the upcoming election, the one currently held by Lewis and the other held by Jim Stuart.
Stuart, who had said early that he was leaning toward not running for re-election, filed to keep his commissioner seat on Thursday. Two other residents have filed to run for city commissioner, George Corbin and Brenda Wilson.
The deadline to file to run for election is noon on Friday.
Election filing takes place at the Board of Elections Office in the Craven County Administrative Building at 406 Craven St., in New Bern. The filing period closes at noon on Friday.
Prospective candidates must pay a $5 cash filing fee. Candidates are required to complete a notice of candidacy and organize their committees. They have to be registered to vote and have to live in the district in which they file for office.
The city election is Nov. 5, with voter registration deadline set for Oct. 11.
For more information on election filing, call the Craven County Board of Elections at 636-6610.

Fair offers summer and full-time job opportunities
More than 50 employers will be recruiting in Levin Ballroom Wednesday
The end of the school year is looming, but it's still not too late to snag a great summer internship or full-time post-graduation job. Co-sponsored by the Hiatt Career Center and the International Business School's Career Development Center the Just in Time Job and Internship Fair will take place from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Wednesday in Levin Ballroom.
The fair is an opportunity for undergraduate and graduate students of all class years to meet with staff from more than 50 employers who are actively recruiting for immediate full-time positions and summer internships. Attending employers will represent diverse fields in the for-profit, non-profit and government sectors.
Similar to the Career and Internship Connections (CIC) that Brandeis students can attend over winter break, the Just in Time Fair will have two key components: a career fair in the morning, followed by opportunities for interviews in the afternoon.
"Jobs are up, hiring is up and salaries are up — but it can still be an anxious time for students," says Joseph Du Pont, Dean of Career Services. "Fortunately those who are looking are generally finding something pretty good."
Placement statistics for the Class of 2011 show that 95 percent of students either had full-time jobs, were in graduate school or were involved in other meaningful activities within six months of graduation.
Du Pont says that current hot fields among Brandeis students include computer science and start-ups.
"We've seen a bit of a movement away from the larger investment banks, although there are still many students who are interested in general business as well, which is helpful as our business major grows," Du Pont said, adding that increasing numbers of students are going on to graduate schools and year -in- service programs, such as Peace Corp, Teach for America, Vista, AmeriCorps and City Year.
"Students want to keep their options open, so they do a couple of years of a program then reassess what they want to do long term," says Du Pont.
The Just in Time fair isn't the only way students can stay on track to find a job or internship. The new Hiatt Crib Sheet Mobile App lets students stay current with Hiatt programs and events, career tips, networking opportunities and campus news. The app also provides real-world advice on topics like housing and insurance.
The Hiatt Center has also recently launched InterviewStream, a new interviewing software through which students can take part in mock interviews via webcam either at home or at the Hiatt Center, then get feedback from a career counselor, alum or an employer to further hone their interview skills.
Du Pont says that students can still find good internships through May, as there are about 700 postings for Brandeis students alone at any given time via B.Hired. In addition Brandeis is part of consortia that list thousands of postings at a time, like the Nationwide Internships Consortium (NIC) and the Liberal Arts Career Network, (LACN), which encompasses approximately 30 elite liberal arts schools that pool their internships and full-time jobs.
The Just in Time Fair is not students' last chance for a great opportunity, as the Hiatt Career Center remains open during the summer.
"This will be the last big event this academic year, but it's certainly not too late to get summer employment or a full time job," says Du Pont.

SMOKE GETS IN YOUR LAPTOP: François Cluzet and Kristin Scott Thomas try to unravel a mystery in 'Tell No One.'
Le Fugitif
A doctor can't escape the past in Guillaume Canet's paranoid thriller 'Tell No One'
By Richard von Busack
SLIGHTLY OVESTUFFED but still comfortable, Tell No One simmers away very nicely. After a Bastille Day dinner party in the country, the childhood-sweethearts-turned-married couple Margot (Marie-Josée Croze) and pediatrician Alexandre (François Cluzet, the Roy Scheider type) go for a nude midnight swim. There is an unseen scuffle, and the doctor is knocked cold with a baseball bat. Eight years later, the case seems solved; Margot's corpse was found and cremated; the crime was the eighth killing by a local serial killer, which makes the carefree spirit of the midnight swim a little questionable. As always, Alexandre observes the anniversary of his wife's killing, but there are new developments: two long-dead local thugs have been disinterred from a makeshift grave in the country. In one's pocket, the police find a key to a storage locker full of evidence. And then over the Internet, Alexandre receives live footage of his apparently living wife: "Tell no one. They're watching." From the deft way director/co-writer Guillaume Canet, working from a novel by Harlan Coben, plays the class card, a seeming crime of passion is more likely the evil machinations of the equestrian class (and Jean Rochefort turns up as a French senator, to help us guess). Similarly, the only one able to untangle this web of deceit will be a badly dressed middle-aged cop with thinning hair. François Berléand plays this particular role with great aplomb. My favorite moment comes when one of the dumb police underlings triumphantly finds a pistol, planted in the fugitive doctor's apartment. The rookie sniffs the barrel for the odor of burnt gunpowder, claiming, "It still smells ..." You can read the reply on the inspector's face: "So does this setup."
Speaking of faces, Kristin Scott Thomas enlivens Tell No One as the lesbian lover of the doctor's sister. As she ages, Scott Thomas has developed almost prehensile lips, recalling the multilayered frown of Vincent Price. The gay part is a nice way of red herringing up the plot. Viewers get caught in a double bind: no one in this day and age is going to pin a crime on people who have suffered such terrible social ostracism or is that just what we're supposed to think?

Possibly, Canet intends to be another Luc Besson—a talent who can Frenchify the international style. It might work; he has good, novel ideas here, including a torture scene conducted by an insane female Rolfer and a steadicam race through the Porte de Clignancourt flea market. I'm not completely in love with the film. Canet uses an underworld character from the slums who gets to be like the usual African American who sticks his neck out a mile for our white hero. The film goes horribly Maxfield Parrishy in its last scene at a lake lit by computer-toasted radiance. This last appeal to the Yankee audience is a little more thick than we deserve, even considering the kind of mulch we ship to theaters overseas.
TELL NO ONE (Unrated; 125 min.), directed by Guillaume Canet, written by Canet and Philippe Lefebvre, based on a novel by Harlan Coben, photographed by Christophe Offenstein and starring François Cluzet, Marie-Josée Croze and Kristin Scott Thomas, opens July 11 at Camera 3 in San Jose and the Guild in Menlo Park.

Awards - Granted by the ECSSR
With a view to achieving its goals and translating them into reality, the ECSSR promotes the conduct of scientific research, especially that related to national issues. In this regard, ECSSR offers valuable awards and prizes to encourage such research.

The citation added that the award was given in appreciation of the role the book plays in enriching the culture of development and responsibility towards achieving a better future for the Arab man.
Prizes and Awards - Granted to the ECSSR
Through its noteworthy activities, ECSSR has earned considerable scientific accolades with local, Arab, and international prestige, thereby qualifying it to receive numerous honorary prizes and certificates.The most important of them are as follows:
The Emirates Center for Strategic Studies & Research (ECSSR) received an Appreciation Award from the Zakat Fund for the Center's efforts in promoting the activities of the Fund at the national and international levels. It is noteworthy that the ECSSR is one of the strategic partners of the Fund. The award was conferred by H.E. Abdullah Bin Oqeidah Al-Muheiri, Secretary General of the Zakat Fund.
On this occasion, Director General of the ECSSR HE Dr. Jamal Sanad Al-Suwaidi stated that the ECSSR is doing its best in supporting the Fund in order to increase its activities and carry out its sharia-based and humanitarian mission. His Excellency stressed that the Fund was serving the UAE's mission of achieving social justice.

This honor was conferred on Dr. Al Suwaidi in a ceremony held to celebrate the UAE's 40th National Day.
The honor was bestowed in appreciation of HE Dr. Al-Suwaidi's sincere efforts and noteworthy academic, cultural achievements as well as for his several contributions to the country's development.
On this occasion, HE Dr. Al-Suwaidi expressed his pleasure on receiving this great honor from His Highness Sheikh Sultan bin Zayed Al Nahyan and stressed that this appreciation would make him strive further toward fulfilling his responsibilities toward serving the UAE and its people.
A press conference over the issuance of commemorative stamps by Emirates Post on the 15th anniversary of the establishment of the ECSSR, was held on Wednesday, 15th of April, 2009. Expressing his pleasure on this recognition, His Excellency Dr. Suwaidi had earlier stated: "We greatly appreciate this step by Emirates Post, especially as the stamps commemorate a significant stage in the history of the Centre, which ranks highly among research centers and institutions, both regionally and internationally."
The stamps have been issued in four denominations—of Dh1, Dh 2 and Dh4 and 150 fils—and are available at all post offices in the UAE. Moreover, a souvenir sheet is available at main post offices, which includes Abu Dhabi Central Post Office, Karama Central Post Office and Deira Main Post Office in Dubai.
For his part, the CEO of Emirates Post Ebrahim Bin Karam, stated: "Emirates Post has a strong commitment to highlighting the role played by national establishments. The issuing of these stamps confirms our continuing interest in these progressive and forward-looking national organizations that employ state-of-the-art tools and support programs that groom national researchers."
The UAE, President, His Highness Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, presented the Emirates Appreciation Award for Science, Arts, and Literature in its Third Round for 2008 to His Excellency Dr. Jamal Sanad Al-Suwaidi, Director General of the Emirates Center for Strategic Studies and Research. The award was granted by the Ministry of Culture, Youth, and Social Development in the field of Studies and Research in Political Studies.
In its exposition of the award to Dr. Al-Suwaidi, the awards committee highlighted the intellectual contribution and the prominent role played by His Excellency in decision making in the UAE through his rational political analyses and his role as leader of the ECSSR, whose political and academic conferences have made a positive, qualitative, and lasting impact.
On this occasion, the ECSSR Staff conveyed its sincere congratulations and blessings to H.E. Dr. Jamal Al-Suwaidi on the conferment of the award to him and wished him continued success.
His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Deputy Prime Minister of the UAE, honored His Excellency Dr. Jamal Sanad Al-Suwaidi, Director General of the Emirates Center for Strategic Studies and Research (ECSSR). Sheikh Hamdan presented the Sheikh Zayed Book Award 2008 for Publishing and Distribution won by the ECSSR to His Excellency Dr. Jamal Sanad Al Suwaidi on Wednesday March 12, 2008 in the Emirates Palace in Abu Dhabi. The ECSSR has been conferred this award in appreciation for its significant and continuous efforts in disseminating knowledge and for publishing studies and books in Arabic and English that meet the highest international standards, both in form and content. The ECSSR has published over 575 titles of wide interest for the research community within and outside the Arab world, and has enriched the Gulf and Arab cultural life with its accurate and in-depth study of important current issues at the political, economic, social, and intellectual levels. This has stirred high-level discourse among various groups and sections of society in the Gulf region and Arab world at large.
On the conferment of the honor to the Emirates Center for Strategic Studies and Research as strategic partner of Abu Dhabi Police, His Excellency Dr. Jamal Sanad Al-Suwaidi, the Director-General of the Emirates Center for Strategic Studies and Research (ECSSR), has affirmed that opinion polls provide a vital information base for decision-making and policy-formulation, especially for those basic and fundamental institutions that seek to build social bonds for achieving their strategic objectives, particularly Abu Dhabi Police.
Dr. Al-Suwaidi was speaking on the occasion of the conferment of the honor for the ECSSR as one of the most eminent strategic partners of the Abu Dhabi Police in a ceremony held day before yesterday at the Emirates Palace, which was attended by the Minister of Interior, His Highness Sheikh Saif bin Zayed Al Nahyan. Dr Al-Suwaidi stressed that cooperation and a fruitful strategic partnership between the ECSSR and Abu Dhabi Police over the past two years was essentially the embodiment of the directions of His Highness General Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces. He also underlined the importance of integration, cooperation, and coordination among different establishments, organizations, and specialized research centers, for providing a suitable work culture for implementing the strategic vision of the Abu Dhabi Emirate in different sectors. In addition, this cooperation represented the vision of His Highness, the Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi, which he has enunciated in his speech on the occasion of the Golden Jubilee of Abu Dhabi Police, on the importance of partnership between the society's institutions and organizations in carrying out security responsibilities, and in supporting police establishments in this respect. This partnership, Dr. Al-Suwaidi said, would promote the capabilities of the police in facing the challenges of the coming times and the trends resulting from changing international security environments, which necessitate intensive cooperation among all concerned parties.
Regarding the role of opinion polls carried out by the ECSSR in supporting decision-making at the local and federal levels, Dr. Al-Suwaidi stated that the ECCSR had recently carried out several opinion polls for various parties and official institutes, in accordance with the importance opinion polls play in the development and the modernization of societies. Most of these polls sought to assess the level of public satisfaction with certain services, or were aimed at identifying the outlook of members of society on some important matters and current social issues. In addition, he stated that some polls were conducted to measure levels of work satisfaction in some government institutes, which reflected the vital role played by the ECSSR in disseminating the culture of opinion polls, in accordance with rigorous methodology and utilization of information in decision-making.
On this occasion, Dr. Al-Suwaidi reiterated the determination of the ECSSR towards contributing significantly to social services and its commitment to utilizing its scientific and research capacities in interacting and cooperating with various ministries, organizations, and institutes, in the spirit and philosophy of teamwork, which is considered the central basis for work in the 'Empowerment Phase.'
Human Intervention in International Relations, a book authored by Mr. Mohammed Yacoub Abdel Rahman and published by the Emirates Center for Strategic Studies and Research (ECSSR), has won the prize at the 30th Kuwait International Book Fair 2005, for the Best Book written in Arabic in the field of Arts, Literature and Humanities. This award was approved by the Board of Directors of the Kuwait Foundation for the Advancement of Sciences in its session on Saturday, June 17, 2006 and received on December 4, 2007.
It may be noted that Human Intervention in International Relations comprises a theoretical study of the phenomenon of human intervention and reviews the historical cases of such intervention in international relations, as well as analyzes the issue of human intervention in international law and the extent of its legality. The book also discusses how such intervention developed after the end of the Cold War and concludes by studying three relevant cases of human intervention that took place in Iraq, Somalia and Kosovo. The three cases illustrate the political application of the theory of human intervention in contemporary international relations, the extent of its legality and its desired benefits.
The winning of this award is an achievement that is consistent with the objectives of the Center, which include promoting the processes of writing, translation and cultural interaction across the world.
His Highness Sheikh Dr. Sultan bin Mohammed Al Qasimi, the Supreme Council Member and Ruler of Sharjah, honored the ECSSR, as part of the United Arab Emirates publishers, at a reception held in appreciation of Arab publishers, as part of the Sharjah World Book Fair 2004.
ECSSR's participation in the Sharjah World Book Fair event, taking place from 7th till 11th of December 2004, came in the form of numerous recent publications, in both Arabic and English; the most prominent being a book entitled: "With United Strength: H.H. Shaikh Zayid Bin Sultan Al Nahyan... The Leader and the Nation".
The award honors publishers whose contributions are distinguished and whose efforts in the field of publishing and translation are outstanding.

The main Strava segment on that road is 4 km with 420 metres vertical altitude gain.
Fastest recorded is an average speed of little more than 12 km/hr.

Browns quarterback Brandon Weeden's first night as an NFL player was a mixed bag.
He completed his first pass of the game to Mohamed Massaquoi and hooked up with Travis Benjamin on a nicely thrown deep ball later on the first drive, but two turnovers sullied the night. The first was a fumble forced by Lions defensive end Willie Young after he beat tackle Mitchell Schwartz badly on a rush from the outside. Schwartz also had a false start in a rough debut performance.
Weeden was later picked by Bill Bentley on a pass for wide receiver Greg Little that Weeden either threw outside him or missed because Little didn't keep running his route. Overall, Weeden was 3-of-9 for 62 yards in his three series of work and, perhaps most importantly, he didn't get hurt. Not everyone was so lucky. Massaquoi left the game with a head injury and will not return. Massaquoi has a history of head injuries so it could be some time before he's back on the field.
Colt McCoy has taken over for the Browns at quarterback.

Associated Press
UNITED NATIONS (AP) – Supersonic skydiver Felix Baumgartner wants to teach U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon how to skydive.
Baumgartner made the offer Tuesday during a photo opportunity where the U.N. chief spoke admiringly of Baumgartner's death-defying leap last week from a balloon 24 miles (39 kilometers) above the Earth, breaking the sound barrier and setting a world record.
When Ban said that he had never skydived, the Austrian offered up his services.
"Here's your chance, I'll teach you to skydive," Baumgartner said.
While Ban looked less-than-enthusiastic about the skydiving lesson, he did call Baumgartner "the most courageous person in the world."
Ban's spokesman, Martin Nesirky, told reporters that while the secretary-general usually deals with weighty issues involving conflicts and wars, he also thinks it is important to engage other parts of society.

Gynecomastia is the growth of abnormally large breasts in males. It is due to the excess growth of breast tissue, not excess fat tissue.
Alternative Names
Breast development in a male
The condition may occur in one or both breasts and begins as a small lump beneath the nipple, which may be tender. The breasts often enlarge unevenly. Gynecomastia during puberty is not uncommon and usually goes away over a period of months.
In newborns, breast development may be associated with milk flow (
Common Causes
Androgens are hormones that create male characteristics, such as hair growth, muscle size, and a deep voice. Estrogens are hormones that create female characteristics. All men have both androgens and estrogens.
Changes in the levels of these hormones, or in how the body uses or responds to these hormones can cause enlarged breasts in men.
More than half of boys develop gynecomastia during puberty.
Other causes include:
- Aging
- Cancer
- Chronic liver disease
- Exposure to anabolic steroid hormones
- Exposure to estrogen hormone
Kidney failureand dialysis
- Lack (deficiency) of testosterone (male hormone)
- Hormone treatment for
prostate cancer Radiationtreatment of the testicles
- Side effects of some medications (ketoconazole, spironolactone, metronidazole, cimetidine (Tagamet))
Rare causes include:
- Genetic defects
Overactive thyroid
- Tumors
Breast cancer in men is rare. Signs that may suggest breast cancer include:
- One-sided breast growth
- Firm or hard breast lump that feels like it is attached to the tissue
- Skin sore over the breast
- Bloody discharge from the nipple
Home Care
Apply cold compresses and use pain relievers (
Other tips include:
- Stop taking all recreational drugs, such as marijuana
- Stop taking all nutritional supplements or any drugs you are taking for bodybuilding
Call your health care provider if
Call your health care provider if:
- You have recent swelling, pain, or enlargement in one or both breasts
- There is dark or bloody discharge from the nipples
- There is a skin sore or ulcer over the breast
- A breast lump feels hard or firm
Note: Gynecomastia in children who have not yet reached puberty should always be checked by a health care provider.
What to expect at your health care providers office
Your health care provider will take a medical history and perform a
Medical history questions may include:
- Is one or both breasts involved?
- What is the age and gender of the patient?
- What medications is the person taking?
- How long has gynecomastia been present?
- Is the gynecomastia staying the same, getting better, or getting worse?
- What other symptoms are present?
Testing may not be necessary, but the following tests may be done to rule out certain diseases:
- Blood
hormone leveltests
- Breast
- Liver and kidney function studies
If an underlying condition is found, it is treated. Your physician should consider all medications that may be causing the problem. Gynecomastia during puberty usually goes away on its own.
Breast enlargement that is extreme, uneven, or does not go away may be embarrassing for an adolescent boy. Treatments that may be used in rare situations are:
- Hormone treatment that blocks the effects of estrogens
- Breast reduction surgery

Rolling Ridge Riding, Inc. is a therapy based horseback riding program for children with disabilities located north of Reidsville in Rockingham county. Rolling Ridge Riding was founded by a pediatric physical therapist in 2000. Since that time, it has grown into a non-profit 501(c)(3) charitable organization that serves children with special needs free of charge. Children and volunteers come throughout North Central North Carolina and South Central Virginia.
Rolling Ridge Riding offers two programs. Therapy riders attend on Monday nights in segmented rides from spring to fall. These children receive therapy on horseback from licensed physical, occupational, and speech therapists who volunteer their time. These therapists come from the Rockingham Co. Schools, and Morehead Mem. Hospital. EC teachers and other educators from the Rockingham Co. School system also participate. A special basic educational curriculum is presented to the children while they are in the riding ring on horseback. Children with cerebral palsy, spina bifida, developmental delays, autism, genetic/congenital birth defects and neurological disorders such as tumors, stroke, and varied forms of paralysis or developmental delays experience the joy of outdoor exercise, therapy, and friendships with as much support as is needed for them to accomplish goals such as learning to sit up, walk, or even talk. Some of our autistic children who aren't talking at school are talking/saying words on horseback!
On Saturdays, the Equestrian Team mounts up to learn to ride and this team goes on to compete in adapted classes in horse shows. They have shown in the Equestrian Special Olympics, and in the 4H. This year, they also competed in a couple of open horse shows here in Rockingham County!
Rolling Ridge Riding provides a place where parents can find a support system, children who are "different" find friends, self esteem, and soar to achieve new accomplishments. High school and college students find Rolling Ridge Riding a great place to perform community service, and to be exposed to many different occupations as well. Many of our volunteers have gone on to colleges to major in pediatric therapies, nursing, and EC educational careers. One of our volunteers is currently in college preparing to get into veterinary school. Rolling Ridge Riding has interacted with A&T State University's exceptional children's program, & Winston Salem State University has had two of their occupational therapy students affiliate with Rolling Ridge Riding. It takes 3 volunteers for each handicapped child to ride.
Rolling Ridge Riding serves 45 to 50 special needs children each season. It has been estimated that over $1,000,000 of free therapy services have been donated in our area since the year 2000! It is a gathering place that brings people of all races and abilities together to form a very positive community.
So how is Rolling Ridge Riding able to give away so much, not charging for the horseback ride, tutoring, or therapies? Rolling Ridge Riding requires that all families who are served participate in fundraising activities. The horse care budget alone is in the $35,000 to $45,000 range per year. Additionally, money is required to provide for insurances for the Rolling Ridge Riding truck, horse trailer, and liability, and items to support the therapy program.
Rolling Ridge Riding is dependent on donations, fund raisers, and searches out and competes for grant monies as well. There is no guaranteed income to keep this community outreach going. It depends squarely on the participation and willingness of the families who come to help it continue each year as they commit to help work in fundraisers.
For information on fundraisers, please check the Rolling Ridge Riding website at www.rollingridgeriding.com, or get in touch with the executive director Kathryn Davis, Physical Therapist, at (336) 349-4702.

That's the brand I have, too, and it works wonders on diaper rash, cradle cap, peely pregnany belly, dry knuckles in winter, and it smells great. Wish I'd known it would help with the cracks if I'd just kept at it a little longer!
I think it's the extra-virgin-ness that makes it better than a refined coconut oil--maybe that's the kind your friend had?

The world is a disaster, we're all getting older, and a higher power may not be there to save us. So let's get a groove on.
Welcome to the universe of Belle and Sebastian's ninth studio album, "Girls in Peacetime Want to Dance," out Jan. 20, which sees the orchestral pop band reawakening its inner disco soul and taking its character sketches out for a worldly spin.
"Back in the day," says singer-songwriter Stuart Murdoch, "I lived in a much smaller world. Those first couple [of] records were almost just exploring my city. Geographically, they existed in a city."
That city would be Glasgow. Formed there about two decades ago, Belle and...

We've been fooled by bangs before (clip-ins are so popular, as you know from Kim Kardashian and Mindy Kaling), but no need to be skeptical this time: Catherine Zeta-Jones's fringe is the real deal. The actress debuted her new hair look for the first time on the carpet Thursday, and we almost didn't recognize the star.
That's probably because Zeta-Jones didn't go for a subtle side bang or some piecey wisps. She went for a heavy, blunt straight across style that covers her eyebrows (and almost her eyeballs). It also looks like she also trimmed few inches from her long dark brown strands. The actress kept the rest of her beauty look simple with a brick-red lip and soft smoky eye to go with her plunging black dress.

And the star's hair isn't the only buzz surrounding her right now. She was joined on the carpet (for opening night of The Library in NYC) by husband Michael Douglas, marking the first time the the couple has attended an event together since deciding to re-evaluate their marriage last June.
"It is so easy to just give up," a longtime family friend tells PEOPLE. "But they wanted to put in the work. I'm really happy for them."
We hope the new look celebrates a new chapter for the actress. Are you a fan of her fringe? Share your thoughts below.

Forget everything you've ever heard about consignment shopping. There's a new wave of online retailers that have taken the old-farty concept of shopping resale and packed it away like your great-grandma's wedding dress. They've combined designer fashion and accessories, budget-friendly prices, and a thumb's-up approval from tastemakers.
We scoured the web for the best designer resale sites and found 5 noteworthy contenders. They'll let you virtually browse the closets of some of the most stylish women in the country, and buy what you like for a lot less than you'd spend in the stores in a few simple clicks.
Keep reading.
Before You Buy...
Before you click to buy, consider:
-There are often no returns, so make sure you really want the item you're purchasing and that you've read the measurements and condition of the item closely. You don't want to be stuck with any surprises.
-Do a little research while you're browsing to see how certain designers are regularly priced and how old an item might be to make sure you're getting the best deal.
-If you're going to indulge in a luxury brand, look for big-ticket pieces that will have lasting power (and re-resale value) like a Chanel handbag, not the trendy stuff.
-See something you love, but aren't quite ready to click buy? Go back in few days or a week. If it's still there, you might be rewarded with an additional percentage off for your patience.
Walk In My Closet
Walk In My Closet, founded by Joe's Jean's Creative Director Ambre Dahan and Amandine Rohmer in 2013, does shopping re-sale right and goes beyond. To dive directly into the shopping experience, click Shop Recycled. You'll find clear, colorful shots of each item, full descriptions and the consignment price.
If you're looking for more, join in on the 'social wardrobing' by cataloguing your own personal closet to organize outfits, create style mood boards and share with your friends. You can also find style information from their 50+ style influencers whom you can follow by joining their individual Cliques. They also have a feature called "My Trips," which helps you organize your looks, create a packing list and even get guidance from their editors on how to pull it all together for an upcoming trip.
(At left: A sampling of what you may find at Walk In My Closet. First row: Jenni Kayne neon silk shirt dress, $168, Chloe pleated silk skirt, $177.74, Marni leather handbag, $148. Second row: Alexander Wang leather sandals, $268 and Louis Vuitton bucket tote, $300.)
Want to feel like a fashion insider? Shopping on Vaunte gives you a peek into the who's who of trendsetters and their lives, with one major point of difference. Not only can you gain insight into what makes these ladies tick (what inspires them, what they can't live without, etc…), but you're also looking right into their closets with the option of shopping directly from their covetable wardrobes.
Founded by former Gilt Groupe's founding VPs, Leah Park and Christian Leone, late last year, Vaunte combines luxury online shopping in an interactive community with an editorial spin ideal for the fashion-obsessed. And in many cases an original retail price is included, so you have the satisfaction of seeing your savings in bold black and white.
(At left: A sampling of what you may find at Vaunte. First row: Fendi grey shoulder bag, $235, Carolina Herrera black and blue dress, $215, Burberry black chain bracelet, $155. Second row: Dries Van Noten blue print silk dress, $255 and Lela Rose black and grey top, $135.)
The RealReal
If you love shopping with a full-service retailer, whether it's online or a brick and mortar, then you'll love The RealReal and their attention to customer satisfaction. Launched in 2011 by Julie Wainwright, this luxury resale e-tailer prides itself on the highest quality offerings of the best fashion brands, and in authenticating each item with their specialized team. (If you're shelling out big bucks for that Chanel purse, you'll probably want to make sure it's the real deal.)
The RealReal offers daily flash sale emails with curated collections. Plus, knowing that you have the option to return an item if it's not everything you dreamed of is a big plus.
(At left: A sampling of what you may find at The RealReal, starting from the left and going clockwise: Thakoon print silk dress, $225, Balenciaga jacket, $175, Chanel canvas ballet flats, $275 and Derek Lam multicolor print top, $125.)
Shop Hers
One of the trickiest parts of purchasing a pre-owned garment is the fit. Typically you can choose between two sizes, but because there is only one available, then you're faced with the dreaded 'should I or shouldn't I?' Created and founded in 2012 by former model Jaclyn Shanfield and her team of experts, Shop Hers allows the shopper to connect with sellers who share similar taste (are you boho, minimal or classic?) and size. With this unique feature, called Style Soul Mates, the site allows you to create a profile of all your measurements (don't worry, it's totally confidential) so that each item you're considering can be checked against your sizing. Pretty genius.
(At left: A sampling of what you may find at ShopHers. First row: DKNY silk scarf vest, $98, Jimmy Choo patent leather booties, $255, Milly silver embossed leather skirt, $130. Second row: Marc Jacobs quilted denim hobo bag, $350 and Prada flower mules, $150.)
If sisters and co-founders of SnobSwap, Elise Whang and Emily Dang, had their way, the tired old adage, shop 'til you drop would become swap 'til you drop. Created out of a long sisterly tradition of sharing closets (there are actually three sisters in the family) these siblings had an even bigger challenge when their adult lives took them to different parts of the country. Originally thinking that building a virtual closet would only be of interest to them, the idea evolved into what you see today–giving users the ability to share their wardrobes online and swap pre-owned designer items with others.
And of course, you can join the site without swapping your things for someone else's, if that's what you prefer. Similar to Ebay, SnobSwap also allows shoppers to covet an item and offer instant bids to sellers that might not be the list price but gives you the opportunity to score a better deal.
(At left: A sampling of what you may find at SnobSwap. First row: Parker zip-front geo print dress, $89.95, Gucci suede knot platform sandals, $229.50, Temperley London dress, $228. Second row: Red Valentino leather bow purse, $107.10 and Versace neon print silk scarf, $238.)
