Miami Beach - Police on Thursday were investigating a woman's claim that singer Chris Brown stole her iPhone outside a South Beach nightclub when she tried to take a picture of him.
A police incident report released on Thursday says Christal Shanae Spann, 24, and her friends spotted Brown and rapper Tyga leaving the Cameo club early on Sunday. Spann told police she saw Brown get into a black Bentley, and she used her phone to take a picture of him sitting in the car.
According to the report, Spann claims Brown grabbed her phone and said "... you ain't going to put that on no website", and drove off.
Authorities said no charges have been filed. The report listed the potential crime as "robbery by sudden snatching," which is a felony.
"My prosecutors are currently speaking with the witnesses and reviewing all of the materials supplied by Miami Beach police," said Katherine Fernandez Rundle, Miami-Dade County's chief prosecutor.
"Only after these reviews have been completed would any type of action be considered or taken."
Brown's attorney and a spokesperson did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
Any charges could cause legal problems for Brown, who remains on supervised probation for beating then-girlfriend, singer Rihanna, in 2009.
He has been on a comeback of late, winning a Grammy award and performing on the high-rated awards show - as did Rihanna.

"This excerpt is from the book, "Systems Performance: Enterprise and the Cloud", authored by Brendan Gregg, published by Prentice Hall Professional, Oct. 2013, ISBN 9780133390094, Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. For more info, please visit the publisher site:
CPUs drive all software and are often the first target for systems performance analysis. Modern systems typically have many CPUs, which are shared among all running software by the kernel scheduler. When there is more demand for CPU resources than there are resources available, process threads (or tasks) will queue, waiting their turn. Waiting can add significant latency during the runtime of applications, degrading performance.
The usage of the CPUs can be examined in detail to look for performance improvements, including eliminating unnecessary work. At a high level, CPU usage by process, thread, or task can be examined. At a lower level, the code path within applications and the kernel can be profiled and studied. At the lowest level, CPU instruction execution and cycle behavior can be studied.
This chapter consists of five parts:
- Background introduces CPU-related terminology, basic models of CPUs, and key CPU performance concepts.
- Architecture introduces processor and kernel scheduler architecture.
- Methodology describes performance analysis methodologies, both observa- tional and experimental.
- Analysis describes CPU performance analysis tools on Linux- and Solaris- based systems, including profiling, tracing, and visualizations.
- Tuning includes examples of tunable parameters.
The first three sections provide the basis for CPU analysis, and the last two show its practical application to Linux- and Solaris-based systems.
The effects of memory I/O on CPU performance are covered, including CPU cycles stalled on memory and the performance of CPU caches. Chapter 7, Memory, continues the discussion of memory I/O, including MMU, NUMA/UMA, system interconnects, and memory busses.
For reference, CPU-related terminology used in this chapter includes the following:
- Processor: the physical chip that plugs into a socket on the system or pro- cessor board and contains one or more CPUs implemented as cores or hard- ware threads.
- Core: an independent CPU instance on a multicore processor. The use of cores is a way to scale processors, called chip-level multiprocessing (CMP).
- Hardware thread: a CPU architecture that supports executing multiple threads in parallel on a single core (including Intel's Hyper-Threading Tech- nology), where each thread is an independent CPU instance. One name for this scaling approach is multithreading.
- CPU instruction: a single CPU operation, from its instruction set. There are instructions for arithmetic operations, memory I/O, and control logic.
- Logical CPU: also called a virtual processor,1 an operating system CPU instance (a schedulable CPU entity). This may be implemented by the processor as a hardware thread (in which case it may also be called a virtual core), a core, or a single-core processor.
- Scheduler: the kernel subsystem that assigns threads to run on CPUs.
- Run queue: a queue of runnable threads that are waiting to be serviced by
- CPUs. For Solaris, it is often called a dispatcher queue.
Other terms are introduced throughout this chapter. The Glossary includes basic terminology for reference, including CPU, CPU cycle, and stack. Also see the terminology sections in Chapters 2 and 3.
The following simple models illustrate some basic principles of CPUs and CPU per- formance. Section 6.4, Architecture, digs much deeper and includes implementation- specific details.
CPU Architecture
Figure 1 shows an example CPU architecture, for a single processor with four cores and eight hardware threads in total. The physical architecture is pictured, along with how it is seen by the operating system.
Figure 1: CPU architecture
Each hardware thread is addressable as a logical CPU, so this processor appears as eight CPUs. The operating system may have some additional knowledge of topology, such as which CPUs are on the same core, to improve its scheduling decisions.
CPU Memory Caches
Processors provide various hardware caches for improving memory I/O perfor- mance. Figure 2 shows the relationship of cache sizes, which become smaller and faster (a trade-off) the closer they are to the CPU.
The caches that are present, and whether they are on the processor (integrated) or external to the processor, depend on the processor type. Earlier processors pro- vided fewer levels of integrated cache.
Figure 2: CPU cache sizes
CPU Run Queues
Figure 3 shows a CPU run queue, which is managed by the kernel scheduler.
Figure 3: CPU run queue
The thread states shown in the figure, ready to run and on-CPU, are covered in Figure 3.7 in Chapter 3, Operating Systems.
The number of software threads that are queued and ready to run is an impor- tant performance metric indicating CPU saturation. In this figure (at this instant) there are four, with an additional thread running on-CPU. The time spent waiting on a CPU run queue is sometimes called run-queue latency or dispatcher-queue latency. In this book, the term scheduler latency is used instead, as it is appropri- ate for all dispatcher types, including those that do not use queues (see the discus- sion of CFS in Section 6.4.2, Software).
For multiprocessor systems, the kernel typically provides a run queue for each CPU and aims to keep threads on the same run queue. This means that threads are more likely to keep running on the same CPUs, where the CPU caches have cached their data. (These caches are described as having cache warmth, and the approach to favor CPUs is called CPU affinity.) On NUMA systems, memory locality may also be improved, which also improves performance (this is described in Chapter 7, Memory).
It also avoids the cost of thread synchronization (mutex locks) for queue operations, which would hurt scalability if the run queue was global and shared among all CPUs.
The following are a selection of important concepts regarding CPU performance, beginning with a summary of processor internals: the CPU clock rate and how instructions are executed. This is background for later performance analysis, particularly for understanding the cycles-per-instruction (CPI) metric.
Clock Rate
The clock is a digital signal that drives all processor logic. Each CPU instruction may take one or more cycles of the clock (called CPU cycles) to execute. CPUs exe- cute at a particular clock rate; for example, a 5 GHz CPU performs 5 billion clock cycles per second.
Some processors are able to vary their clock rate, increasing it to improve performance or decreasing it to reduce power consumption. The rate may be varied on request by the operating system, or dynamically by the processor itself. The ker- nel idle thread, for example, can request the CPU to throttle down to save power.
Clock rate is often marketed as the primary feature of the processor, but this can be a little misleading. Even if the CPU in your system appears to be fully utilized (a bottleneck), a faster clock rate may not speed up performance-it depends on what those fast CPU cycles are actually doing. If they are mostly stall cycles while waiting on memory access, executing them more quickly doesn't actually increase the CPU instruction rate or workload throughput.
CPUs execute instructions chosen from their instruction set. An instruction includes the following steps, each processed by a component of the CPU called a functional unit:
- Instruction fetch
- Instruction decode
- Execute
- Memory access
- Register write-back
The last two steps are optional, depending on the instruction. Many instructions operate on registers only and do not require the memory access step.
Each of these steps takes at least a single clock cycle to be executed. Memory access is often the slowest, as it may take dozens of clock cycles to read or write to main memory, during which instruction execution has stalled (and these cycles while stalled are called stall cycles). This is why CPU caching is important, as described in Section 6.4: it can dramatically reduce the number of cycles needed for memory access.
Instruction Pipeline
The instruction pipeline is a CPU architecture that can execute multiple instructions in parallel, by executing different components of different instructions at the same time. It is similar to a factory assembly line, where stages of production can be executed in parallel, increasing throughput.
Consider the instruction steps previously listed. If each were to take a single clock cycle, it would take five cycles to complete the instruction. At each step of this instruction, only one functional unit is active and four are idle. By use of pipe- lining, multiple functional units can be active at the same time, processing differ- ent instructions in the pipeline. Ideally, the processor can then complete one instruction with every clock cycle.
Instruction Width
But we can go faster still. Multiple functional units can be included of the same type, so that even more instructions can make forward progress with each clock cycle. This CPU architecture is called superscalar and is typically used with pipe- lining to achieve a high instruction throughput.
The instruction width describes the target number of instructions to process in parallel. Modern processors are 3-wide or 4-wide, meaning they can complete up to three or four instructions per cycle. How this works depends on the processor, as there may be different numbers of functional units for each stage.
Cycles per instruction (CPI) is an important high-level metric for describing where a CPU is spending its clock cycles and for understanding the nature of CPU utilization. This metric may also be expressed as instructions per cycle (IPC), the inverse of CPI.
A high CPI indicates that CPUs are often stalled, typically for memory access. A low CPI indicates that CPUs are often not stalled and have a high instruction throughput. These metrics suggest where performance tuning efforts may be best spent.
Memory-intensive workloads, for example, may be improved by installing faster memory (DRAM), improving memory locality (software configuration), or reducing the amount of memory I/O. Installing CPUs with a higher clock rate may not improve performance to the degree expected, as the CPUs may need to wait the same amount of time for memory I/O to complete. Put differently, a faster CPU may mean more stall cycles but the same rate of completed instructions.
The actual values for high or low CPI are dependent on the processor and processor features and can be determined experimentally by running known work- loads. As an example, you may find that high-CPI workloads run with a CPI at ten or higher, and low CPI workloads run with a CPI at less than one (which is possi- ble due to instruction pipelining and width, described earlier).
It should be noted that CPI shows the efficiency of instruction processing, but not of the instructions themselves. Consider a software change that added an inefficient software loop, which operates mostly on CPU registers (no stall cycles): such a change may result in a lower overall CPI, but higher CPU usage and utilization.
CPU utilization is measured by the time a CPU instance is busy performing work during an interval, expressed as a percentage. It can be measured as the time a CPU is not running the kernel idle thread but is instead running user-level application threads or other kernel threads, or processing interrupts.
High CPU utilization may not necessarily be a problem, but rather a sign that the system is doing work. Some people also consider this an ROI indicator: a highly utilized system is considered to have good ROI, whereas an idle system is considered wasted. Unlike with other resource types (disks), performance does not degrade steeply under high utilization, as the kernel supports priorities, preemption, and time sharing. These together allow the kernel to understand what has higher priority, and to ensure that it runs first.
The measure of CPU utilization spans all clock cycles for eligible activities, including memory stall cycles. It may seem a little counterintuitive, but a CPU may be highly utilized because it is often stalled waiting for memory I/O, not just executing instructions, as described in the previous section.
CPU utilization is often split into separate kernel- and user-time metrics.

The idea of comparing data in motion (at the sensor level) to data at rest (in a Big Data server warehouse) with predictive analytics in the cloud is very appealing to the industrial IoT sector. The problem Big Data vendors have, however, is access to that data in motion at the sensor location. In his session at @ThingsExpo, Scott Allen, CMO of FreeWave, discussed how as IoT is increasingly adopted by industrial markets, there is going to be an increased demand for sensor data from the outermos...

There are several IoTs: the Industrial Internet, Consumer Wearables, Wearables and Healthcare, Supply Chains, and the movement toward Smart Grids, Cities, Regions, and Nations. There are competing communications standards every step of the way, a bewildering array of sensors and devices, and an entire world of competing data analytics platforms. To some this appears to be chaos. In this power panel at @ThingsExpo, moderated by Conference Chair Roger Strukhoff, Bradley Holt, Developer Advocate a...

In addition to all the benefits, IoT is also bringing new kind of customer experience challenges - cars that unlock themselves, thermostats turning houses into saunas and baby video monitors broadcasting over the internet. This list can only increase because while IoT services should be intuitive and simple to use, the delivery ecosystem is a myriad of potential problems as IoT explodes complexity. So finding a performance issue is like finding the proverbial needle in the haystack.

I have a form where it have 2 input and 1 texatarea, when a user submit the form the default behavior of the form is stopped to make the way for ajax request. Here is the code I am using. $(document).ready(function(){ $('input#submit').click(function(){ $name = $('input#name').val(); alert($name); return false; }); }); And here is my html form <form action="" method="post" id="mail-form"> Name *
 <input type="text" name="name" id="name"/>
 Email *
 <input type="text" name="email" id="email"/>
 Message *
 <textarea id="message"></textarea> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Send" id="submit"/> </form> When I click submit buttons it just displays blank value in alert box even if I enter some value in name field. Whereas if I use the following code for form. <input type="text" name="name" id="name" value="yourname"/> It display yourname in alert box properly. what is wrong with my code? ere is my whole index.html [URL] file, is there anything wrong with DOM?
How do I populate several text input fields with corresponding data, executing php-mysql query script once only? e.g. <form name="video" action="mysql.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" target="videofrm">
 url/gallery:<input class="text" type="text" id="url" name="url"/> <input id="favorite" class="text" type="checkbox" name="favorite" value="true"/> favorite

 <input id="thumb" type="file" name="thumb"/>

 title:<input class="text" type="text" id="title" name="title"/>

 description:<input class="text" type="text" id="desc" name="description"/>

 country:<input class="text" type="text" id="country" name="country"/>

 categories:<input class="text" type="text" id="categories" name="category"/>
 <input type="button" value="fetch" id="fetch"/> <input type="reset" value="clear"/> </form> I need to populate input text fields with: select url,title,desc,country,category from video where url='something'; First I need to know how to write this kind of php script so it returns json datatype, and afterwards how to populate text input fields, using jquery, with returned data.
I have a form with fields that are automatically totaled when values are added, it works fine in ie 6,7 +8 and FF but the field is blank in Safari and Chrome - any ideas?? // total income jQuery(document).ready(function(){ jQuery("input.add").change(function () { var sum = 0; jQuery('.add').each(function() { var Total = sum += Number(jQuery(this).val()); [Code]...

I have a check box from HTML form and I would like to used the selected values from the check box to get data from MYSQL database with PHP. the form is like this: <input type="checkbox" name="a" value="red">red
 <input type="checkbox" name="a" value="green">green
 <input type="checkbox" name="a" value="yellow">yellow How do you fetch those values if red and green are selected with PHP and run the query to the Mysql to fetch data where a field is equal to red or green??
I have an html form (generated in php), and if a user select a specific value from a select, extra input fields are added via jQuery.In the processing page, the values for the new fields were not coming through - see an exerpt from phpinfo(): _POST["child"] Array[code].... However, if I set the value attribute in the html that jquery adds, that value comes through. <input type='hidden' name='orderIds' id='orderIds'/> <input type="hidden" name="changeNums" id="changeNums"/> <input type="hidden" name="changeIds" id="changeIds"/>[code].....
I am having 2 input fields. Both will have only the integer values. Its a minimum and maximum values. The condition is The minimum value of the 2nd input field should be greater than 1st input field. and 1st input field value should be minimum than 2nd input field. For that I tried with Jquery Script $('document').ready(function(){ $('#project_form1').validate({ rules: { minfield: { [Code].....
I have one form in which one input type whose value is "First Name".But this can be changed on onfocus function I want validation for this input field if it is blank or "First name" I have two jquery files jquery-1.4.2.min.js & jquery.validate.pack.js. I have another jqeury file for this form jQuery(document).ready(function() { jQuery("#frmRegister").validate({ errorElement:'div', rules: { Fname:{ required:true, minlength: 2, maxlength:30 code.... In this file required:true is working if value is balnk but by default value is "First Name" so it does not work I want both if it is blank or it is "First Name". Full Name:
Using jQuery how can check if all input fields (EXCL hidden fields) and textareas are blank? I'm not sure how to "loop" through all form fields and check for: $("input").val() and $("textarea).val() This is to run a function that should only "work" if all form fields are blank.
I am using jquery ui date picker for take fromDate and toDate. Following is the code of from date <input name="from_date" id="from_date" maxlength="20" size="20" type="text"/> $("#from_date").datepicker({ dateFormat: 'M dd, yy', showButtonPanel: true, changeMonth: true, changeYear: true, defaultDate: null }); Now I use the form to take the value in POST varible using PHP. If the fromDate field is blank then it take value '1970-01-01' I want it blank.
For example, I'm using the script below to check for empty fields : $('a.submit').click(function() { if ($('.LoginData').val() == "") { $('input:text[value=""]').attr('style', 'border-color:#FF0000;'); } else { $(this).parents('form').submit(); }}); All the input elements have the class LoginData, so I used the jQuery class selector which selects all the elements containing that class. However, when the if condition finds a field that isn't blank, it just stops there.
<input id="u1" class="username"> <input id="u2" class="username"> <input id="u3" class="username"> ... How to fetch input value with "username" class and send with ajax jquery to php page. i want to recive data like simple array or simple json. (i need INPUT values and not ids)

First Name <input type="text" name="first_name"> Last Name <input type="text" name="last_name">

This is my form, i would like to default the select box to USA, and default the text field to a name such as 'Sarah' and the hidden field to another number like ??', when the user clicks on the check box, otherwise the fields should be blank, the value of the select box dosnt matter much, only that it defaults to USA, when the user checks it. -- <form name="form1"> <input type="checkbox" name="checkbox" value="checkbox"> <select name="prefix"> <option value="off" selected>Select country <option value="61">Australia <option value="1">USA <option value="58">Venezuela </select> <input type="text" name="name"> <input type="hidden" name="number"> </form> --
Im using jquery. And i need to get the input field value character by character.
I am using jquery.validate.js. I am having 2 input fields. The condition is the second input value should not be less than first input value. The second condition is the first input value should not be greater than 2nd value. I tried with different options but it didnt work. Is there any jquery function for this validation? Or pl
Basically what i want to do is set my second form field email2 value equaled to my first form field email value!<input id="email" name="email" value="firstname.lastname@example.com"/><input id="email2" name="email2" value="value from the first email input field" /> I know this is pretty easy but im new to jQuery.
I have at the moment a create_user.php and edit_user.php they are the same, create has <input type="text" value="" name="xx"> for a field, and edit has <input type="text" value="<?=$row['rowhere']?>" name="xx"> - I would much rather have just the one page where if page function was edit then it calls in the row otherwise leaves value blank. How can I do this other than if ($pagefunction == "create") { echo "<input type="text" value="" name="xx">"; } elseif ($pagefunction == "edit") { <input type="text" value="<?=$row['rowhere']?>" name="xx"> } on every field!?
how do I prevent the user to change the value in an input field (which contains a certain value to be copied into the clipboard) without using disabled="true"? The text should be selected once the user clicks in the field (that's working already) but entering anything should have no effect. jQuery('input.autoselect[value]').focus(function() { jQuery(this).select(); });
HTML code: <input type="text" name="percentage[]" value="1"/> <input type="text" name="percentage[]" value="2"/> <input type="text" name="percentage[]" value="3"/> I want to be able to catch change event by using JQuery when any of the 'percentage' text fields changes and find sum of all these fields. So, if the value on the first field changes from 1 to 5, I want to be able to display "10".
I have a bunch of fields like so created on the fly <input type="text" name="coeff_a"> <input type="text" name="coeff_b"> <input type="text" name="coeff_c"> .. and so on .. I want to validate the input to the above fields, and am using the jQuery validate plugin. I have set up a rule like so jQuery.validator.addMethod( "perc", function(value, element) { [code]....
I cant get this each function to work inside a form: For example I have this code: $('#formid>input').each(function(){ if($(this).attr('id')!='') alert($(this).attr('value'); //fetch id if not blank ang show value }); The code inside this function does not run if the form is rendered this way:<form>

...

<input type='text' id='fname' />

</form> But if it is rendered in a simplier way like this, it works:<form><input type='text' id='fname' /></form> I am using jquery jquery-ui-1.7.2.custom.main.js library by the way for the tabs but I don't think that messes up the whole thing though...
I'm coding a form using PHP and jQuery. I have a file upload field to which I applied the following jQuery-validate rules: image: { accept: "jpeg|jpg|png|gif", required: "#edit_ID:blank" } The file upload field must only accept jpeg/jpg, png, or gif images. It is required only if the field with the ID "edit_ID" is left blank. This is my file upload field: <input type="file" id="image" name="image" class="input1" /> The file upload field selects files without any problem, but when jQuery returns an error because of a violated rule, even if I select a new file from my computer the file I selected before the error appeared remains there. It's as if it becomes disabled after jQuery-validate gives an error. I tried removing the rules set for this field, tested it, and encountered no problem. P.S.: I encounter the problem in Firefox (v.3.6.9) and IE (v.8) but not in Google Chrome (v.5).
I am using jquery.validationEngine.js for form validation .I was downloaded this js from URl...this site.But it not works for checking validation for default value such as I have first name field whose value is "First Name".I want validation for checking that this field should not be blank but it not works because it contains default value "First Name".Also I want this should work in jquery.validationEngine.js file because I have to many validations on form & I am using this js.[code]
With jQuery how do I count how many fields of my array field[] are not empty ? Sample of the input field <input type="file" name="arquivo[]" id="arquivo"> I was trying to make something up using map and get but it is not coming along well: var total = 0; var count = $('#arquivo[value!=""]').map(function() { total = total+1; }).get(); But no matter how many fields I have filled it always end up with the value of 1 and if I have no fields filled 0.
I have a form with over 50 input fields. The input fields are divided into 5 jquery jabs within the form container. Here's a sample of what it looks like: <form action="admin/save" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data"> <input type="hidden" name="type" value="department" /> <input type="hidden" name="id" value="21" />

Tab 1

Tab 2

I'm adding the ability for the user to input his own values into 6 input fields, some or all of which may be left blank. I have already an array populated (thanks to Paul Wilkins) with default values. How do I get the user's values into that array so the calculations will be performed on it?I got this far, but was unable to understand the problems brought up by JSHint.com. User input: HTML Code:
 Alternate spur values:<input class="display3" type="number" size="14" value="" name="spur1">
 [code]....
I am using multi-select dropdown and trying to fetch the values in jquery.
i have tags field in my table and tags field is optional when tags are addesso most of the time tag field is empty with no tag.and some time there are so many tags in a tag field of database.like in my artical table i have tags field which contain php, frameworks , advance php empty field java jquery how i can fetch all tags to show on user side and ignore empty field.and should be unique tags in the list.my fetch funtion is show as Code: [Select]/** getting all tags [code]........
I'm trying to get my uploading script to work with jquery but having problems with fetching the values (files) that are queued up in a multiple form. I can get it to work so i can select like 10 files in a single input but when i'm trying to fetch those values i only get the first file of the 10 i added simultaneously. I can upload the files and fetch its values but i want to make it to work with jqeury as well something i can't get to work. Here is the code: <!DOCTYPE html>

My husband and I are traveling by car from Buffalo NY to Asheville NC in early October to meet up with some college friends. We will be spending a night/day in Blowing Rock on Day 1 and then will be spending 4 nights in Asheville in a rented house just outside of town. I'm looking for a destination for 3-4 nights before returning to Buffalo. I thought about going to the ocean but have changed my mind. Any ideas on where to continue our trip? Would be willing to drive as far as Nashville. We are in our 50's and enjoy small quaint towns with nice shopping, restaurants, scenery and hiking as well as cities. Am open to suggestions as to where to stay ($200 per night budget) as well as activities, restaurants, etc. Thanks in advance for your help.

Where to go in NC or Tennessee after Asheville early October

A wonderful, scenic area approximately an hour east of Nashville you might consider is Fall Creek Falls State Park. The foliage is usually gorgeous in October and there are many hiking trails with beautiful waterfalls throughout the park. Also, the Great Smokey Mountains would be good for hiking and viewing fall foliage. Gatlingburg and Pigeon Forge are close by, but can be a tourist trap, so you may want to avoid these towns. Tennessee is a beautiful state! Hope you have a wonderful trip!

I used to live in the Carolinas and when I go back, I go to the places I visited as a child. From Asheville I usually head east to Spruce Pine and Little Switzerland areas. In Spruce Pine you can mine for gems (http://www.sprucepinegemmine.com/) and in Little Switzerland you can stay in cottages or inns that give you an amazing view of the mountains, like Little Switzerland Inn or Big Lynn Lodge (http://www.littleswitzerlandnc.com/).

I absolutely agree with Denise. Avoid Gatlinburg at all costs. What a mind numbing experience that was. Wild horses couldn't get me to go back! The crowds of people mindlessly trudging along the sidewalk, lines and lines of cars through Cade's Cove...it was all so very bad it ruined any sense of the beauty of the surroundings. One word for it. Awful. (And I grew up in one of the hot spots for fall foliage and summer concerts so am not unfamiliar with crowds. These are The Worst!)
Report Abuse
Well, you could go back toward Blowing Rock and up the Parkway--Spruce Pine and Little Switzerland are in that area.
If you wanted a bit of city experience you could go to Winston-Salem, visit Old Salem, eat well, then head north again to the Parkway at Fancy Gap or such on your way onward north.
If you love pottery you could head east from Asheville and visit the area around Seagrove (south of Greensboro) for more pottery than you will find ANYwhere, I do believe. All kinds--traditional to glass to raku to modern. Wonderful stuff. Then go north from there.
There are also wineries around Winston Salem if that is of interest.

I think we've decided to go to Nashville for a few days. We've never been there and we figured after almost a week of small towns, mountains and nature we would enjoy a city. In between Asheville and Nashville I would like to spend a day exploring Great Smokey National Park. I would like to avoid staying the night in Gatlinburg. Is there another town you would recommend to stay in after a day in the park? Thanks everyone for your advice so far.
Report Abuse
Well, you have made it a difficult trip. From Asheville to Nashville and wanting to do the smokies, AND THEN go back to Buffalo it's a long haul.
Go to Nashville first, and work back IF you want Nashville. Just think about it.
Report Abuse
My real point is, you have changed the entire trip.
Report Abuse
I am not following your reasoning. My plan is to go to Asheville first, which we have to because we are meeting friends and have rented a house. Those dates are not flexible. From there my husband and I are planning to go west, first to Great Smokey National Park and then continue west to Nashville. From there we will head north back to Buffalo. How have I changed the entire trip? We are locked into the Asheville dates and looking for a side trip from there?
Report Abuse
You might want to consider Charlottesville instead. It's a pretty drive, there are nice wineries, and Monticello is a treat.
Report Abuse
I think Nashville is fine. It's a sort of long and basically uninteresting drive to and from Nashville from the east, which you will be doing twice.
I just think there are more interesting things to do coming back to the east and more on your way back to Buffalo.
And you are locked into the Asheville time.
Report Abuse
Heading up towards Virginia and Charlottesville was my first thought too. One of the prettiest parts of the country that time of year. And would mean much less driving than Nashville (though Nashville can be fun).

'Star Trek Into Darkness' Stars Invade London for World Premiere
Ships with "Star Trek Into Darkness" cast on board have landed gracefully in London, England. J.J. Abrams and his stars hit the white carpet at the world premiere of their sci-fi film which took place at the Empire Leicester Square theater on Thursday, May 2. With hundreds of Trekkies lining up, they were warmly welcomed by "Downton Abbey" cast and several "The X Factor" finalists.
Male leads Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, Karl Urban and Benedict Cumberbatch suited up for the event. Meanwhile, Zoe Saldana and Alice Eve stole the show from the boys with their gorgeous looks. Saldana wore a Vionnet dress, which featured a long black bodice and an asymmetrical white skirt, and Eve looked lovely in an Ermanno Scervino suede strapless dress with a black belt.
Other British celebrities also supported the show, including Stephen Fry, Jonathan Ross and comedian John Bishop. Bo Bruce, who collaborated with Snow Patrol's singer Gary Lightbody on the film's soundtrack, was in attendance, wearing a floor-length red evening gown.
"Star Trek Into Darkness" centers on Captain James T. Kirk and the crew of the Enterprise, who are tasked with leading the deadly manhunt to capture a one man weapon of mass destruction.
Before being released on May 9 in the U.K. and May 17 in the United States, the film builds the anticipation with the release of two videos, which feature Saldana as Nyota Uhura. In a clip titled "Ears Burning", Kirk and Uhura discuss Spock while in the turbolift together. The second video, meanwhile, sees Saldana talking about her character.
The film is penned by Roberto Orci, Alex Kurtzman, Bruce Greenwood and Damon Lindelof.

Photo: Moe's Restaurant In Tennessee Has Sign Making Fun Of Former Coach Lane Kiffin
They don't like Lane Kiffin in Tennessee. The current Alabama offensive coordinator spent one season in Knoxville coaching the Volunteers before bolting to USC in 2010. Kiffin remains one of the most despised sports figures in the state.
Need evidence? A Knoxville Moe's has a sign outside its restaurant making fun of the former Tennessee coach.
— •Τεnn|VΘLS|εssεε• (@TNswag98) July 26, 2014
That's not a photoshop. A Moe's employee confirmed to College Spun that the sign is indeed real.
It's something this Moe's, located at 1800 Cumberland Ave. off Tennessee's campus, has done before, too.
From a 2010 Los Angeles Times story about Kiffin's departure:
There is no sense of loss but plenty of regret about the man who abruptly left the Volunteers to succeed Pete Carroll at USC. At Moe's Southwest Grill on Cumberland Avenue, the main campus drag, the marquee says it all: "Forget Kiffin. Go Vols.
Now that Kiffin is back in the SEC, Tennessee fans will get the opportunity to truly root against him. The Volunteers take on their former coach and Alabama Oct. 25 in Knoxville.

Thu Aug 9 2012 (Updated 08/10/12)Davis Dozen Update: Pitchess Motion Filed to Investigate Officer Misconduct
Thu Aug 9 2012 (Updated 08/10/12)Davis Dozen Back in Court on August 24th for Pretrial Hearing
On July 13th, the legal team for the Davis Dozen, students and faculty of UC Davis who allegedly blockaded a corporate bank that appeared on their campus last Fall, filed a Pitchess Motion which alleges that the officers in the case used excessive force or lied about the events surrounding the defendants' arrest. This will provide the court access to the officers' records, allowing confirmation of past use of excessive force against the defendants. Their next court date has been set for Friday, August 24th.
As part of U.S. Bank's aggressive marketing strategy, U.C. Davis students were issued new ID cards that doubled as debit cards, while students who received financial aid were temporarily blocked from receiving their funds unless they opened an account with the bank. Students and educators began blockading the entrance to the bank in January, preventing the branch from operating for nearly two months. In response to the protest, the bank branch closed its doors on February 28.
It is estimated that up to 200 people participated in the alleged blockade, but only twelve of them are facing criminal charges. They are being charged with 21 counts of misdemeanor, including conspiracy to commit a misdemeanor. They face up to 11 years in prison and $1 million in fines.
Several of the twelve were pepper-sprayed by University Police in November, in an act of police brutality that garnished international attention.
