Wheel Fun RentalsRead MoreWhen Brian McInerney reflects on the humble beginnings of Wheel Fun Rentals, he points to his childhood passion for bikes. "As far back as I can remember, I had a real love affair with bicycles," he recalls. During a trip to Italy in 1987, Brian's affinity for cycling blossomed into a full-fledged obsession when he spotted locals' transporter of choice, the surrey. Inspired, he began importing the Italian four-wheelers to a rental business in the U.S. that eventually expanded into Wheel Fun Rentals, now a nationwide web of shops that also loans out bikes, electric cars and mopeds, and man-powered watercraft. Adventuresome athletes can also compete in activities such as surrey scavenger hunts and blindfold obstacle courses navigated via shouted instructions from a seeing teammate or exceptionally long rounds of trial and error.10015 Park BoulevardSeminole, FL US

Lewis AutomotiveRead MoreHailing from Buenos Aires, instructor Javier Rochwarger and the crew at Sangha Space connect students to each other and the community through the art of movement. As the instructors lead classes, lively Latin rhythms, jazzy swing tunes, and the names of ancient yoga poses echo throughout the spacious dance hall, bouncing off the exposed beams on the vaulted ceilings and ricocheting into a welcoming fireplace. Visitors peering over the second-story balcony may spy Lori Coyle-Magen and her husband Eran Magen demonstrating the passionate steps of the Argentine tango that they've been perfecting since the night they met. Sangha's dance workshops and classes don't require a partner, and regular social events let students practice new moves, make new friends, and wear down the dangerously sharp point of their new dancing heels. In addition to other dance and cultural classes led by visiting teachers, yoga instructors Pamela and Emily stop by several times a week to conduct yoga sessions focused on proper movement and form for beginner or advanced practitioners. They supplement their practical knowledge of body mechanics with spiritual advice shared through metaphors connected to each yoga technique.3115 81st Court EastBradenton, FL US

One Day LuxuryRead MoreAs a kid, it was easy to say things like, "One day, I'm going to drive a racecar."

As its name suggests, One Day Luxury strives to make those dreams come true—even if it's only for single day. The company rents out rides by the hour and by the day.

Capone's Art House Round-Up with the Oscar-nominated AMOUR and the documentary SOMEWHERE BETWEEN!!!
Published at: Jan. 11, 2013, 1:26 a.m. CST by
Hey, folks.
in Chicago here, with a few films that are making their way into art houses or coming out in limited release around America this week (maybe even taking up one whole screen at a multiplex near you). Do your part to support these films, or at least the good ones…
Many of the films of the controversial and inspiring filmmaker Michael Haneke are about facing fears. Whether it's the characters in his works (such as THE WHITE RIBBON, THE PIANO TEACHER, CACHÉ, or both versions of FUNNY GAMES) facing their own fears, often by walking head first into them; or audience members facing their fears. But with his latest award-winning work AMOUR, Haneke may be giving us his best example of the 70-year-old writer-director facing what terrifies him the most: growing old. But he examines the topic through the eyes of a couple in their 80s who truly love each other and would do anything to stop the other's pain.
There isn't much by way of a story with Amour. We're introduced to the couple--Georges and Anne, played by two French acting royals, Jean-Louis Trintignant (Z, THE CONFORMIST, A MAN AND A WOMAN, MY NIGHT AT MAUD'S) and Emmanuelle Riva (HIROSHIMA MON AMOUR)--living a comfortable life, going through each day with a sense of routine, bordering on the mundane, but they seem content. But rather than simply slipping into their lives peacefully, Haneke has a prologue featuring the police breaking into the couple's home. A feeling of dread begins to creep into our thoughts before we're taken back several months to quieter times.
For admirers of Haneke's work, AMOUR may feel strange in its initial sweetness. There are touches of his more confrontational style here and there at the beginning--a front door lock has been tampered with, for example--but he largely keeps the proceedings tepid for a while. Then during a breakfast conversation, Anne simply freezes; Georges panics and runs from the room for help, but when he returns Anne is back to normal with no memory of the pause.
Before long, however, that moment seems like a silly glitch compared to what follows, when a full-scale stroke hits Anne rendering her partially paralyzed and in full-scale dementia, with a terrified Georges trying to help her maintain some level of dignity--an impossible task under the circumstances. With their love comes a level of understanding about what must be done, which doesn't stop Georges from trying as hard as he can to see if there are any signs of the old Anne in her twisted shell of a body. Initially he enlists the helps of a caretaker, but that doesn't work out. And the couple's utterly selfish and ultimately useless grown daughter (Isabelle Huppert, who absolutely nails her character's false sentimentality) essentially refuses to help or even come visit regularly.
For those younger readers out there, if the idea of seeing a film about the wretched process of growing old seems unbearable to you, I recommend you look at Amour as a horror film, and I say that only slightly joking. Haneke spares us nothing from the reality of taking care of someone who has lost all ability to take care of themselves or even communicate their needs. There's one sequence where Anne simply repeats the slurred word "hurts" in a muffled scream, and we don't know if she means she's in physical pain or if the totality of her condition is the focal point of her suffering. It's one of the most difficult scenes to watch in a film filled with such moments.
But as much as AMOUR is about suffering, it is also about devotion and mercy, to the point where that might actually be the ultimate point of the whole experience. In the end, the film practically places these virtues on an altar and makes them worthy gods to worship. Some may be turned off by the final act of Amour, but it should seem almost inevitable (hell, the opening practically tells you what's going to happen) to most. This magnificent work is likely destined to win the Best Foreign Language Film Oscar it was nominated for this week (and I believe one of the actors has a real shot as well), and I for one would be so happy to see Haneke accept his long-overdue award.
The phenomenon surrounding a person who is adopted deciding whether or not to track down their birth parents is one that has haunted public policy and the law for decades. But imagine if the option of tracking down your parents wasn't available to you because the government and adoption agency conspired to keep the birth parents' names a secret. Welcome to our increasingly complicated relationship with the People's Republic of China, a nation that, in the late 1970s, passed a law that families could only have one child. What resulted from this policy were hundreds of thousands of unwanted baby girls who were simply abandoned on the streets or at orphanages around the nation of 1 billion souls.
In the years that followed, families from all over the world (including a healthy number from the United States) started adopting Chinese babies (almost all girls) to the point where there is an entire generation of teenage girls in America, born in China, many of whom are wondering where they came from and why their parents didn't want them. Director Linda Goldstein Knowlton begins SOMEWHERE BETWEEN describing a bit about the process of her adopting a Chinese baby a few years ago, but expands her scope to profile four teenagers, all of whom have excelled in school, and each feeling to varying degrees the urge to travel to China and meet their birth parents. In some cases, these girls are the only Asian kids at their school or neighborhoods. Each grapple with a certain amount of stereotyping (a couple even refer to themselves as "bananas"--white on the inside, yellow on the outside) from their peers as well as abandonment issues.
Knowlton has a real gift for getting these girls to talk about being a product of and torn between two worlds, an issue that becomes a source of sensitivity as they get older. I was particularly fascinated and inspired by one girl who does make the journey to the Province from which she was adopted and practically stumbles over her birth father within an hour of putting up posters announcing her search.
During the course of this quite moving work, we learn that there is a movement in the world to halt international adoptions (for reasons I was never quite clear about), and there are organizations/support groups of young Chinese women that meet around the world to discuss their unique situation and shares experiences of searching or finding birth parents. There are few touchy subjects left untouched in SOMEWHERE BETWEEN, a film that does not shy away from discussions of race, gender and national identity. The one girl who seems the least interested in finding her parents believes that she is where she is for a reason, and that these are the parents she was meant to have. It makes perfect sense that there are those that feel this way, but there's something in her eyes that says she isn't being totally honest. This is a quietly devastating, intimately realized film that gets 2013 off to a great start for documentaries.

Earth's Uncertain Future | Collection Development: Climate Change, June 1, 2015
Climate change entered scientific discourse during the 1980s as scientists started to document a rapid rise in greenhouse gases and a corresponding increase in global temperatures. Their claims were quickly challenged as critics alleged the gases had little to do with any warming that might be occurring. Here the debate heats up in books, videos, and websites.

Report critical of council's emergency management
An independent report has found the City of Albany has under-resourced emergency management, takes too long to approve prescribed burns and needs an "urgent, major improvement project".
The report, which was commissioned by the city, has found it has made some improvements in emergency management but needs to do more.
It found the emergency management structure was "confusing and challenging", a lack of accountability meant that responsibility had become under-resourced and there was also a lack of staff in key positions.
It comes just after the release of a review into last year's fatal Black Cat Creek bushfire, which was critical of the city's handling of the blaze.
Report author Christopher Morrison was also critical of the management of prescribed burns.
"It's where bureaucracy has actually gone a little mad," he said.
"There is a need for consultation and there is a need for due process but it shouldn't take 12 months to get permission for a prescribed burn."
He says the city has made improvements but there is more work to be done.
"It's not pretty in the fact that you live in a beautiful part of the state, which is a high bushfire risk and it's not pretty in the fact that the brigades are not as well organised as they could be to mitigate that risk," he said.
Dale Putland, the council's executive director of planning and development services, says the city's performance could improve.
"Our job now will be to take the action plan out to the volunteers, to work with the volunteers to establish time frames to deliver this," he said.
"We've already started, we've already delivered some of it.
"Some of it will be very rapidly delivered, others will take more time."
He says it accepts there is a need to make improvements and it is committed to ensuring that happens.
"That was the whole point of actually commissioning the report in the first place, we knew and recognised that there were issues, both from our side of things and some of the things the volunteers were doing, which needed refinement," he said.

Unwanted items get new life at LaBelle Legacy
Shop is celebrating one-year anniversary
City of Oconomowoc- Home improvements don't always have to entail chaos and a hefty price tag; sometimes all you need is a simple adjustment to your living space to make a big impact.
Enter LaBelle Legacy, which is celebrating its one year anniversary in the downtown Oconomowoc area.
The store offers a trifecta of options for shoppers from consignment and gift items to ideas for re-purposing furniture.
Those options allow homeowners to enjoy a makeover for a fraction of the cost involved in traditional redecorating.
"It's been exciting and we've had lots of new things were trying," said LaBelle Legacy proprietor Jean Niebler.
In challenging economic times, savvy shoppers have welcomed the opportunity to shop consignment stores, with an eye toward the quality that might otherwise not be affordable.
Niebler's store offers both contemporary and traditional furnishings and home accessories.
The first year of business has been rewarding, Niebler said.
"With the downtown area beginning to blossom with the new community center and the German Christmas Market, among other things, it is an exciting time to be a business owner in Oconomowoc. I'm very happy with where I am right now. The community and the people here have been very nice and supportive.
"We have lots of new people coming in for the first time," she added.
Niebler explains that they also can help people re-imagine a piece of furniture.
"Furniture restyling is where you take an old piece of furniture with good bones, say maybe an old oak look, or something that has been scratched, and giving it new life with some funky fun color, or distressed white," Niebler said. "I tell people to look at those as accent pieces as well," she added.
The consignment policy at LaBelle Legacy is a three-month contract and the store and the seller agree on an asking price. During the first month the item is in the store, it is sold at full price. If it does not sell in the first month, the price is reduced 20 percent; in the third month, the item is then sold at 40 percent off the full price. Items accepted for consignment must be in "sparkling condition, pet free and smoke free," store literature notes. Niebler said unique items such as small upholstered pieces, lamps, mirrors, small tables, art, serving pieces and home accessories sell especially well.

How did three Danes end up being tortured in Lebanon?
Saving Afghanistan's archaeological sites
22 Sep 2013 13:57 GMT | Sport, Tennis
Serena Williams may pack a knockout punch and be the greatest player ever to grace women's tennis, according to Victoria Azarenka, but the world number two insists she is steadily closing the gap.
Azarenka suffered another bruising loss to the mighty American in the US Open final earlier this month in a repeat of the 2012 championship match in New York.
But the Belarusian quickly climbed off the canvas, saying she was over it in 24 hours.
"Serena is the best ever to me," Azarenka told AFP on Sunday in an interview before her opening match at the Pan Pacific Open in Tokyo.
"I cannot judge somebody who I never played before but for me overall the game of tennis has elevated and the evolution of the game raised up so much that it's hard to compare.
"It's like comparing Muhammad Ali and Floyd Mayweather," the 24-year-old added.
"How can you compare two eras? They're both the greatest in the world but who was the better boxer?"
Buoyant mood
Despite defeat at Flushing Meadows and the enduring brilliance of Williams, Azarenka was in buoyant mood.
Serena is playing the best tennis of her life and so am I. It's been really noticeable the gap from last year we have in the matches has minimised. I've beaten her twice this year. No one else has done that
Victoria Azarenka,
"Serena is playing the best tennis of her life and so am I," she said.
"It's been really noticeable the gap from last year we have in the matches has minimised. I've beaten her twice this year. No one else has done that.
"It's just exciting to be in the era of somebody and competing with somebody who is considered the best ever and being their toughest opponent."
Azarenka, who has held the world's top ranking, called her 7-5, 6-7, 6-1 defeat at the US Open a "learning experience" but pointed to two victories over Williams in 2013 as evidence she had the game to threaten the dominance of the 17-time grand slam singles champion.
"Serena is always improving," twice Australian Open champion Azarenka said of her nemesis, who turns 32 this week.
"This is the beauty of the competition. It's a healthy competition and you have to rise to the occasion and really step it up (to) the next level if you want to be up there. Serena's still not done."
Azarenka, whose head-to-head record against Williams is still a lopsided 3-13, said of her latest schooling: "I was over it the next day.
"I have a 24-hour rule, win or lose. You have to get up and keep going."
Her latest tussle with Williams was also a noisy affair, the ferocity of their hitting pushing the grunt-o-metre off the scale.
"In tennis it's weird because everybody keeps complaining that people grunt but if you watch any other sport (they do)," she said with a laugh.
"It's the same with the guys' tennis. You watch (Rafa) Nadal and (Novak) Djokovic. I mean how less intense was that (US Open final)? And nobody talks about it. This doesn't make sense in my head.
"You take each other to the limit of battle and give 100 percent in every point and when you play in the final of the US Open against a player like Serena you've got to do that because that's what she does and that's how she pushes you."
Preparing for Tokyo, Azarenka showed her playful side with a parody of American pop diva Miley Cyrus's controversial MTV Video Music Awards performance on her Instagram account.
"I just thought it was a really funny video to do," she said of her effort at 'twerking'.
"I'm never afraid to show my personality. I'm an entertainer myself. I was a little shy before. Now I'm out of that zone I just want to show my world with my fans."
Weighing in on the debate raging over Cyrus, Azarenka smiled: "It's up to everybody. I have different tastes. She's definitely not my role model."

Service checkup
Measuring the performance of relatively straightforward information technology operations such as network services can be hard enough. But how do you do the same for, say, outsourced application development, an activity sometimes labeled as more art than science?
Keane Inc. has been working with the Executive Office for U.S. Attorneys to help improve the reliability of mission-critical applications it delivers to the Justice Department and attorneys nationwide.
As a first step, Keane has applied industry best practices embedded in the Software Engineering Institute's Capability Maturity Model (CMM) to grade the improvement in development processes and project management disciplines. The project was recently rated at CMM Level 3, with Level 5 being the highest.
But coming up with the equivalent of a network service-level agreement (SLA) for application development services is difficult because there just is not much hard data available, said Glenn Giles, vice president of Keane Federal Systems.
What administrators can do is establish the equivalent of a quality-of-service measurement for application development by assessing what resources employees used to perform the work previously, and then comparing new costs and employee resources to illustrate before and after scenarios, he said.
"The next step will be measuring ourselves against actual SLAs, though it will probably be a general measure at first, rather than involve specific dollar payments and penalties," Giles said.
It may take another three years before this occurs, he added.

Ohio EPA toured a commercial food manufacturing plant where the efficiency of an Agency permitting process helped foster a major expansion at Pepperidge Farm Inc. in Willard. Ohio EPA staff issued the required permit to Pepperidge Farm in less than three months, just in time for a ground-breaking ceremony in June for a $93 million expansion project at the plant which includes the installation of a new Goldfish cracker production line. Ohio EPA worked with Pepperidge Farm on six separate permit applications in 2013. One of those permits was to change the oven heat source from thermal oxidizers to catalytic oxidizers, which are proposed to be installed in 2014. This will result in a significant reduction in fuel consumption, making the facility more energy efficient, and improving production with the addition of the new cracker line.
Pepperidge Farm introduced new Pepperidge Farm Puff Pastry Cups. A miniature version of the much-loved Puff Pastry Shells, these versatile pastries provide a blank canvas for creative entertainers to serve up wow-worthy dishes in perfect bite-sized portions. These latest additions to the Pepperidge Farm Puff Pastry lineup, which includes Sheets, Shells and Turnovers, make it easy to find inspiration for any occasion due to their portion-perfect size and light, flaky texture.

if you like to read how to or you want to play with PID gains, here is all you need:
MultiWii ACC sensor calibration:
Updating B-Ex flying car controller:
7x3.8 Carbon Mixed Slow Fly Propellers 1xCW and 1xCCW (Black)
Prop adapter to suit 3.175mm motor shaft
recommended Batteries
max battery size L=190 mm, W = 46 mm, H=28 mm
Driving motor ESC
I was shown the following technique for ESC balancing, feel free to give it a try or recommend an alternative method.
====Proceed at your own risk====
1. remove the throttle pin from the RX on the B-EX and insert it into the BATT pins on the RX. Keep the orientation the same (don't twist it around)
2. Remove the ESC lead from the flight controller board for your replacement ESC (D3, D9, D10, D11) and plug this lead into the Throttle pins on the RX. Ensure the BROWN line on the ESC goes to where the BLACK line was on the Throttle pin.
3. turn on your TX, enable flight mode by switching GEAR to position 1. Move the Throttle on your TX to the maximum 'up' position (full throttle)
4. Connect the battery to the B-EX. You will hear the normal 'beep beep beep' sequence which is the flight controller doing its normal setup. You will ALSO hear a different 'Beep Beep' which is the ESC recording the MAX throttle setting. AS soon as you hear these two beeps, move the throttle down to the minimum/off throttle position. You will hear another two beeps as the ESC records the minimum throttle setting. The flight controller also repeats its setup 'beep beep beep' tones.
5. disconnect the battery on the B-EX. Set the throttle position on the TX to minimum. Set the GEAR switch to 0.
6. reconnect the battery on the B-EX. Once the flight controller has calibrated (beep beep beep, blue LED turns off) enable flight mode (GEAR=1, blue LED turns on) and move the throttle up. The calibrated ESC will start the motor spinning at 0.5 of the white lines on the throttle.
7. Repeat for the other ESC leads, ensure you remember which one goes where
8. once completed put the Throttle lead back on the Throttle pins from the BATT pins.
This is where I am up to, I need to calibrate the ACC and MAG as demonstrated in the video from Witold below.
lessons learned:
-fly outside on grass, not inside concrete carparks (the B-EX is NOT a 240FPV quad)
-if driving, short grass is better for the wheels/tyres as long grass gets stuck.
-Concrete will wear the tyres very quickly and the B-EX loves to spin as there is no differential.
-do low and slow maneuvers when starting off, you don't know if a channel needs to be reversed.
-buy more rotors, you WILL need them

Received mine yesterday in the post!
I have swapped the battery connectors to XT60 to match my batteries and then trialled it indoors. It drives great but I think needs to be outside to fly properly (needs space, lots of space).
I am already looking at some required spare parts, namely props and a B-EX-015 as in the attached picture. I have shattered one prop on landing and it appears to have cut through one of the outer back wheel frame ring pieces.
It can still drive but I need to change the prop before I attempt flight again
Looks great!
Maybe find out if GWS or Gemfan offer props of the same dimensions and pitch, would be cheaper and probably higher quality

Are the exact Specs of the Propeller known like pitch an so on? Arent there no spare propellers within the Box? I thought Witold said he would add 4 Spare Propellers.
I'm a bit suprised the other part broke because Witold didn't get tired of saying that it is highly durable... I guess getting these special spares could be the biggest issue in the future, I hope Witold made some kind of a contract with the factory for those parts in a long term.

A short question from my side, B has all the sensors (gyro + acc + baro + magnetometer) connected just no GPS which could also be connected if wanted?
Furthermore i read that the multiwii bord has a fly back to position function using the baromerter, so it flys back to a ceratin height. Anyone tried this?

Mr_Fen - thanks for setting up the forum. Great to see we finally have a spot to post our adventures and woes with B.
Like you all, I got mine a few weeks back - total newb to quadcopters, but not RC Cars. Let's just say it's been a learning experience.
I already bought a stack of replacement 7x3.8 props for this thing, a balancer, and new prop adapters since like someone else on the Kickstarter site mentioned, 2 of mine had nuts that were stripped.
Lelchen - you're right - MWI offers a lot of features like autolevel and return to home if you have a GPS, etc. The barometer maintains altitude hold and compass can maintain a heading hold. But if you want to do waypoints, return to home, etc, you'll need a GPS.
This guy's youtube channel shows a lot of good stuff on Multiwii - worth a look: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list...SxkAV6KmWYPcH7

Hey Guys, I have an other question as well, who is using the dx6i controller?
How many Channels are left on the receiver? I guess just 1? So it should be possible to rather switch on/off the camera or make a mode changer like acro / horizon mode?
Does the 6i have a 3 mode button?
Edit: Found this Video:
So if anyone is interested to Switch between 3 modes (low mid high) this is the way to do it
Any idea how do get this done in practice? someone wants to try with the multiwii configurator and his controller?

On off sw.
I received mine today.
Have some Qs:
Drive controller was not installed, but came separately? Is this because I ordered a kit?
Can i fly the unit without it?
There is a switch with labels 'on' and 'off' on the switch.
Does this power the entire vehicle on off?
Or just the drive engine?
It is not described in the june manual.
Also lacking on june manual: how to operate cam?
Little button connected to cam controller came off the frame, as the glue bond was broken.
My spektrum unit was mounted upside down so I could not read connector labels.
What is that usb thingy with labels dtr rxi txq vcc cts gnd for?
Not described in parts list. It comes with 12 loose wires.

Ok I dont have mine yet but here is what i unterstood so far from Witold Updates:
Drive controller was not installed, but came separately? Is this because I ordered a kit?
Can i fly the unit without it?
Yes, you got the updated version, Read Update 30 on kickstarter for more Info, it is not needed anymore!
There is a switch with labels 'on' and 'off' on the switch.
Does this power the entire vehicle on off?
Or just the drive engine?
This Button should be on the left upper side of your dx6i, right? If thats so, it is you toggle switch to change between drive and flight mode. Also more in Update 30.
Also lacking on june manual: how to operate cam?
Little button connected to cam controller came off the frame, as the glue bond was broken.
Just reglue it with a bit of hot glue. I think there was someting on that topic in an Update, not sure however. I guess 1 push is cam on, a second push is cam off. But I am just speculating!
Write Witold a message that this is missing and that he should Update the manual. He doesn't answer me anymore, I guess I overdone it a bit ^^
What is that usb thingy with labels dtr rxi txq vcc cts gnd for?
Not described in parts list. It comes with 12 loose wires.
Not sure but my guess it is the dx6i reciver? there should be some kind of a lable (spectrum)? make a picture and post it, I guess this should be the easyest way to say what it is.

Gallery: Feldman Architecture's Walnut Farms Retreat Strikes Rammed Ear...
San Francisco-based Feldman Architecture creates beautiful and sustainable modern homes using a palette of durable materials like concrete, stone, natural wood, and powder-coated steel. One of the current projects in the firm's resume of homes is the Walnut Farms Retreat located in the Central Valley of California near the San Andres Fault. Like many of its predecessors, the Walnut Farms Retreat is slated to be certified by the USGBC's LEED rating system, and as Feldman Architecture's Principal, Jonathan Feldman, AIA, states, "the client was quick to jump into certification". The 6649-square-foot project is designed to be carbon neutral with a net-zero solar electrical system, geothermal radiant heating and cooling, a solar hot water system, and rammed earth walls.

text: The same thing that makes this city so exciting is the thing that makes it so forbidding: POTENTIAL. Look around at all the new construction in downtown and Midtown and Buckhead, from Decatur to the West End: Hey, in 10-15 years, Atlanta might have the densely populated inner core of an actual vibrant city. And with all the things that go with dense populations -- walking districts, mass transit, 24-hour amenities -- the city could truly become the cultural center it only hints at today. That is, if the next 10-15 years doesn't instead turn Atlanta into an environmental disaster area, bereft of clean water and air, endlessly sprawling and with no end to car congestion in sight.

(NEW YORK, NY) -- If fashion shows carried ratings like movies, then U.S. designer Betsey Johnson's spring 2001 show on Tuesday would have been rated X.
The youthful designer's ``Playboy Bunnies'' spectacle featured centerfold models for the fabled men's magazine strutting down the catwalk in outfits that elicited gasps and giggles from spectators.
The show began with a collection of brightly colored outfits, like a lime mini halter dress and an iced pink sequined body suit complete with matching Bunny ears and tails.
Playful, sexy, and tongue-in-cheek, Johnson divided her collection into months. February's clothes included a hot red bikini with rhinestone hearts and a filmy, neon pink wrap dress reminiscent of movie siren's lingerie.
July featured patriotic get-ups like a red-striped sailor's outfit of short shorts and a tiny tie top. October was about Halloween costumes like a skimpy yellow ``Indian'' number made from fringed suede and a gold-sequined Mermaid tube skirt and top.
Johnson's shows always draw celebrities. This time around, pop music icons Steven Tyler and Cyndi Lauper, real estate tycoon Donald Trump, and actress Lauren Holly sat in the front row gawking at the buxom Playboy bunnies who seemed to enjoy trading in the magazine pages for the runway.
While Johnson's show was over-the-top, designer Nicole Miller's spectacle was decidedly under-whelming.
The collection featured uninspired sportswear staples like jersey tank dresses and trousers-plus-tank tops in lilac, pink, and black, and throwbacks to the 1980s like shirt dresses with large, wide belts and gold chain details.
The prettiest offerings were a metallic blue pair of skinny jeans paired with a shiny leaf print silk shell and flattering, one-piece black pantsuits that would make a chic, simple evening look, and a few bold Art Deco pattern dresses.
Johnson's and Miller's shows followed elite designer Oscar de la Renta's exercise in retro elegance.
De la Renta's line of dramatic, bright dresses and gowns combined sunny colors that evoked a Palm Beach look with the graceful sleek lines for which he is known.
Fabrics ranged from polished orange, pink, turquoise or green striped cotton to nude organza dripping with beadwork and black organza gathered in eye-catching ruche pleating that resembled origami.
Among the most striking looks were a sheer pink top of ostrich feathers, paired with a black silk skirt, a white halter gown with a clear crystal-like collar and a floor-length suit of chartreuse leather cut out to resemble lace.
Like Miller, de la Renta borrowed some 1980s looks. The designer featured the bubble skirt, first in a short pink satin version he called bloomers and then a longer version he called pouf skirts.
Some 100 designers are participating in the nine-day semi-annual Fashion Week that ends on Friday.
