The symbol of the «world's smallest metropolis» is the "Jet d'eau" – a fountain with a 140-metre-high water jet at the periphery of Lake Geneva. Most of the large hotels and many restaurants are situated on the right-hand shore of the lake. The old town, the heart of Geneva with the shopping and business quarter, holds sway over the left-hand shore. It is dominated by St. Peter's Cathedral, however the actual centre of the old town is the Place du Bourg-de-Four, which is the oldest square in the city. Quays, lakeside promenades, countless parks, lively side streets in the old town and elegant shops invite guests to stroll. One of the best-maintained streets is the Grand-Rue, where Jean-Jacques Rousseau was born. The «mouettes», a type of water taxi, enable crossings to be made from one lakeshore to the other, while larger vessels invite visitors to enjoy cruises on Lake Geneva.
Geneva is Switzerland's most international city, as it is where the European seat of the UNO is based. Even the International Red Cross directs its humanitarian campaigns from here. Besides being a congress city, Geneva is also a centre for culture and history, for trade fairs and exhibitions. The «Horloge Fleuri», the large flower clock in the "Jardin Anglais" (English Garden), is a world-renowned symbol of the Geneva watch industry.
Culturally, this city on the westernmost fringe of Switzerland has much to offer. International artists perform in the Grand Théâtre and Geneva Opera House, and an extremely diverse range of museums such as the "Musée international de l'horlogerie", a watch museum with a collection of jewellery watches and musical clocks, and the International Museum of the Red Cross and Red Crescent, which provides an insight into the work of these humanitarian organisations, invite city guests to visit them.
A rewarding excursion destination is Mont Salève, which is situated in neighboring France. The cableway lifts visitors to an altitude of 1100 metres in less than five minutes, giving rise to outstanding vistas across the city of Geneva, Lake Geneva, the chain of Alps, the Jura and Montblanc.
Geneva lies idyllically between Alpine peaks and vineyards by the largest lake in Western Europe. Geneva is the UN capital of peace, home of the luxury watch industry – and a delightful place to visit.

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. - Penn State's defense calls it "sudden change," and it describes not just what took place on the field Saturday, but also what happened to the entire team during the past week.
"That loss last week [to Ohio State], that hurt," PSU cornerback Stephon Morris said. "So we definitely wanted to get back on the sweeter side of things."
Monday's practice, however, was the worst of the season for the Nittany Lions. Everyone was down, and the team easily could have spiraled into letdown mode against Purdue.

"It was the first practice of the year where things didn't go too well," Morris said.
Then came a sudden change on Tuesday.
"Any time you get a loss to Ohio State like that, a tough loss, it takes you a few days to get over it," quarterback Matt McGloin said. "But Coach [Bill] O'Brien gave us a nice talk, the seniors gave a nice talk just about staying focused. ... We did that Tuesday all the way up through today."

Penn State's Brandon Moseby-Felder lands on his head after making a catch and getting tackled by Purdue's Ricardo Allen on Saturday in West Lafayette, Ind.
The Lions regrouped in a big way, bouncing back from their tough loss to throttle Purdue, 34-9, before a small crowd of 40,098 at Ross-Ade Stadium.
"It just shows that we don't really care what happens in the past," said McGloin, who had his second straight 300-yard passing game. "We don't focus on losses. We focus on the task at hand, and that was beating Purdue today."
Penn State (6-3, 4-1 Big Ten) put together a balanced effort, playing sharp on both sides of the ball, and coasted after getting up 20-3 at the half. The Lions scored TDs on their first two possessions in the second half, further crushing the spirits of a Boilermakers (3-6, 0-5) team that lost its fifth in a row.
O'Brien repeatedly said throughout the week that his team had moved on from the Ohio State loss, and it clearly showed against Purdue.
"You have to put that loss to bed," the coach said. "You have to learn from it, but you have to bury it."
Penn State's defense buried Purdue's hopes early, as time and again it shut down the Boilermakers after they had taken over in good field position.
"We have a term called 'sudden change,' and we did a great job of sudden change when the ball was either on their plus-50 [or close to it]," Lion defensive end Deion Barnes said.
Of Purdue's first seven drives, three started at midfield, one at the Boilermaker 48 and the other at the 41. And they managed to score only three points.
The Lion defense quickly changed momentum by repeatedly preventing the Boilermakers from doing anything with that good field position and getting the ball back so the PSU offense could kick into gear.
Barnes said the defense's performance helped the offense relax more.
"They're thinking like whatever we do, our defense is still going to be able to stop them, so we can still get into our playbook and do what they know how to do," Barnes said.
Purdue took the opening kickoff and drove for a field goal - becoming the first team to score in the first quarter against PSU all season - but the Lion defense established control of the game after that by shutting down the Boilermakers despite their good field position.
"I put them in some tough spots there going for it a couple times, and it didn't work out great," O'Brien said. "But [the defense] did, they bowed up, they played well, they ran to the football, they played with a lot of energy, and they've done that pretty much all year."
Purdue had allowed 39.2 points over its past five games, so once the Lions had control on defense, it was just a matter of time before their offense would start to pile it on.
Penn State got a 27-yard field goal from Sam Ficken on its second series, then took the lead for good the next time it touched the ball thanks to a 42-yard pass from McGloin to Brandon Moseby-Felder. That set up first-and-goal at the 6, and Michael Zordich scored on the next play to make it 10-3.
Another Ficken field goal, from 24 yards, and another Zordich TD, from 5 yards, made it 20-3 at the half. The two quick scores to start the second half came on a 12-yard pass from McGloin to Jesse James and a 41-yard bomb to Moseby-Felder.
McGloin finished 22-of-36 for 321 yards and two TDs, that coming on the heels of his 327-yard effort against Ohio State. His seventh straight game with at least 200 yards passing broke Kerry Collins' school record of six.
"Give him a lot of credit this year," O'Brien said of his quarterback. "You've got to write it: He's had a hell of a year."
Zach Zwinak carried 21 times for a career-high 134 yards, helping balance out Penn State's offense. The Lions finished with 185 yards on the ground and 506 yards overall.
Moseby-Felder also enjoyed a career day with 129 yards receiving on six catches, plus his first touchdown.
"We went out today with the game plan, the mindset like we've got to attack," Moseby-Felder said.
The Lions also had the mindset that they wouldn't be so disappointed after last week that they'd let Ohio State beat them twice.
"We definitely had to come out here and get a win," Morris said. "It was like a must-win situation."
"We know that we can't go undefeated, can't go perfect in the Big Ten," he added. "But our goal is to still have a 9-3 record. That's still a lot of positives."

One of the leaders for the Lady Green Wave basketball team will take her talents to Erskine College.
Summerville High School graduate Zuri Green was joined by teammates, coaches, family and friends Monday at the Green Wave gym to celebrate her signing with the Erskine Womens Basketball Team.
I like that Erskine is small and everyone there seems to be together, Green said. Ive been to a lot of campuses to visit and play with teams but something just seemed to click with Erskine. Everything kind of came together. Everyone on the Summerville team had a good bond so Im looking forward to developing a bond with my new teammates.
Green was a three-year letterman for the Lady Green Wave and a two-year starter. She was also a standout on the Lady Green Wave volleyball team. She received multiple all-region honors for both sports.
Last season, Green averaged 12 points, seven rebounds and 1.5 steals per game.
Her senior year she was among the leaders in both points and rebounds not only for our team but for the Lowcountry, Summerville coach Matt Legare said. She is a very solid basketball player who was basically our rock for our last two region runs. We will miss her leadership as well as her points and rebounds. She is a great kid to coach.
Erskine will likely use Green as both a small forward and shooting guard.
She has good size and athleticism, Legare said. She can shoot the 3 and she is a good student. She is very coachable so she will continue to improve and add some elements to her game at the college level. I think Erskine is a good fit for her.
Green hasnt decided on a major yet, but is leaning toward biology or another medical-related field.

Softball Splits Wednesday Doubleheader at Indiana
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. - - The Ball State softball team ended both the road and non-conference portions of its 2014 regular season with a doubleheader split at Indiana Wednesday evening.
After suffering a 3-2 loss in the opener, the Cardinals rebounded for a 6-3 win in the nightcap to improve to 24-15 entering Friday's 1 pm home doubleheader against Akron. The Hoosiers move to 13-30-1 with the split.
"Anytime you can pick up a win over an in-state rival and Big Ten opponent it's a good day," Ball State head coach Tyra Perry said. "I thought Kelsey did another good job in the circle. She had solid command of her pitches and did a great job working in and around the strike zone. On offense, we were able to string together some quality at bats at the end of the second game, including another big hit from Emily. Emily is locked in right now and has provided us with several big hits over the last few weeks."
For the second time in five games, sophomore second baseman Emily Dabkowski (Plainfield, Ind./South Putnam) came up with a clutch seventh-inning hit, blasting a game-winning three-run home run in the nightcap versus Indiana. With two outs in the seventh inning of last Friday's win at Northern Illinois, she posted her first career grand slam to secure the win for the Cardinals. For the season, Dabkowski has accounted for 11 game-winning runs, including scoring the winning run six times and adding five game-winning RBI.
Senior left fielder Jennifer Gilbert (McKinney, Texas/McKinney) led the Cardinals at the plate over the two games, going 4-for-7 with her 72nd career home run and her 60th career double, both in Ball State's 6-3 victory. With her four hits, she upped her career hit total to 263 which is a program record.
In addition to Dabkowski and Gilbert, senior third baseman Audrey Bickel (Munster, Ind./Andrean) also tallied a home run on the day, with a two-run shot in the fourth inning of the opener. Bickel also collected a pair of doubles in the second game to finish the day 3-for-7.

GAME ONE RECAP: Indiana 3 – Ball State 2
The Ball State defense was the story of the game early, as the Cardinals recorded double plays in both the first and second innings. The biggest of the two twin killings came in the second, when IU had bases loaded with one out and Dabkowski collected a grounder, tagged the runner and flipped the ball to first to end the inning.
However, a pair of BSU defensive miscues in the bottom of the third helped the host Hoosiers post three runs on the scoreboard. With runners at first and second with no outs, a BSU error on a sacrifice bunt attempt led to the first run. With runners on the corners, an errant throw on a stolen base helped the second IU run score from third. CaraMia Tsirigos followed with a RBI single to right field to drive in the final run of the inning.
Trailing 3-0 entering the fourth, Gilbert reached on an error to open the inning. Bickel made IU pay of the mistake, launching a two-run homer deep left field wall, cutting the Hoosiers advantage to 3-2.
Unfortunately, those were the only two runs the Cardinals would score in the game, as IU pitcher Lora Olsen would limit the Cardinals to just two hits over the final three innings to secure the victory. In picking up her fifth win of the season, Olsen (5-13) held Ball State to two runs (one earned) and five hits for the game, while compiling five strikeouts.
Sophomore pitcher Nicole Steinbach (Merrillville, Ind./Andrean) took the loss in the circle for Ball State, falling to 10-8 after allowing three runs (two earned) and eight hits, while striking out four batters.
GAME TWO RECAP: Ball State 6 – Indiana 3
After three scoreless innings, the Cardinals took their first lead of the doubleheader in the top of the fourth thanks to the bat of Gilbert. Dabkowski opened the inning with a single through the left side, setting up a two-run rocket shot over the left field wall from Gilbert. It was her 16th home run of the season and the 72nd of her career.
Bickel followed Gilbert's blast with a double, and scored three batters later on a single to right from freshman catcher Shelbie Scamihorn (Terre Haute, Ind./South Vigo) which was misplayed by the IU fielder allowing Bickel to cross the plate.
The Hoosiers countered with a two-out solo home run from Kelsey Dotson in the bottom of the inning for their first run of the game. Indiana would tie the score in the next frame, scoring runs on a RBI double from Brianna Meyer and a two-out RBI single from Michelle Huber.
After a scoreless sixth, the Cardinals got another big swing from Dabkowski, who deposited a three-run homer over the left-center field wall to give BSU a 6-3 advantage. With one out, sophomore center fielder Briana Evans (Tulsa, Okla./Union) reached on an error, while senior pinch hitter Lauren Schroeder (Greenfield, Ind./New Palestine) followed with an infield single to set up Dabkowski's game-clinching homer.
Sophomore Kelsey Schifferdecker (Belton, Mo./Belton) earned the win in the circle for Ball State, improving to 11-5 this season by holding the Hoosiers to three runs and 12 hits over seven innings of work. She also struck out three batters, all in the second inning.

by its ultra-fast proprietary Hummingbird 1 GHz ARM Cortex A8 CPU
(co-developed with Intrinsity), Samsung's Galaxy S and Galaxy S Pro
Android smartphones offer beastly performance. It will also be
among the select set of Android smartphones to receive Android
2.2 Froyo, which should offer a further boost to performance.
high performance, along with a cross-carrier launch on T-Mobile
(branded the "Vibrant"), AT&T
(branded the "Captivate"), and Sprint
(branded the "Epic 4G") (with Verizon soon
incoming, as well) has added up to a hit for Samsung. The
company just announced
today that in the 45 days since July 15, it had sold one million
units of its "Galaxy S" smartphones.While that number falls
short of Apple's record-setting annual iPhone launches (Apple worldwide
moved 1.7
million iPhone 4 smartphones in 3 days), it's important to
consider how saturated the Android market is. Whereas there's
only one Apple smartphone, there's a deluge
of Android smartphones – this includes the HTC
Hero (October 2009), Motorola
Droid (November 2009), HTC
Droid Incredible (April 2010), HTC
EVO 4G (June 2010), and Motorola
Droid X (July 2010), andMotorola
Droid 2 (August 2010), to name but a few. And that's
part of why Android recently passed Apple (and Research in Motion, to
boot) in U.S. sales.The Galaxy S sales numbers are also
impressive considering that Samsung is a relatively fresh face to the
Android arena. Traditionally, HTC and Motorola have been the
top Android handset makers (as one might note by the above mentioned
models).Dale Sohn, president of Samsung Mobile states,
"Bringing Galaxy S devices to multiple carriers has given
Samsung Mobile the opportunity to reach millions of consumers.
I am proud of the instant success of the Galaxy S line up and I am
very pleased to announce that because of the support of our carrier
partners and loyal customers, we have shipped one million Galaxy S
devices in the U.S. market. Samsung Mobile looks forward to sharing
additional Galaxy S milestones in the future."Aside from
solid specs, Samsung credits a concerted advertising push with
helping customers notice the new phone. Samsung was a sponsor
of X Games 16 and showed ads in movie theaters. It also aired
ad clips on ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, ESPN and MTV promoting the phone.It
is very important to note that that Samsung managed all this before
it even made it to America's largest carrier, Verizon. When
the Galaxy
S variant "Fascinate" hits Verizon in September,
expect more sales fireworks for the company.All this bodes
extremely well for Samsung's upcoming tablet dubbed the Galaxy Tab.
Using the same Hummingbird processor, 7-inch AMOLED touchscreen,
and other high end components, the diminutive Tab looks to rival
Apple's iPad in features and performance. The device will be
officially introduced at the IFA
consumer electronics conference in Berlin on September 2 and
is expected to launch shortly thereafter.

quote: To a point, I agree with you.Understanding that you're either a hopeless Apple fanboy or a paid marketing company flack, I would still like to address a bit of what you said.(this is obvious from the links alone, nevermind your history here)I will say that development cycles are much shorter these days. There's no way we could possibly deal with the equivalent of Windows 3.1 for years - Android would fail miserably, just like Windows Mobile did. And so any company that issues hardware on an insufferably old version of Android will either fail, or get hacked by their customer base.To another implied point, Google is not interested in locking people into their OS system, the way both Microsoft and Apple obviously are.Instead, they link you into their software services.

It doesn't seem likely that Penn State will be getting a new head football coach for Christmas.
Athletic Director Dave Joyner and the six-person search committee have been working for more than a month, and precious little information has dripped out on Joe Paterno's successor.
While that may not whet the collective appetite of the media and fans, it does protect the integrity of the process so credit the committee for limiting leaks.
The strategy, of course, also benefits the committee in that it's possible that the prospects of succeeding Paterno and facing the troubling unknown of the looming court cases against Jerry Sandusky, Tim Curley and Gary Schultz are enough of a deterrent for potential candidates to field inquiries by saying, "Thanks but no thanks."
An unnamed agent told the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette he considers the job "toxic."
The reality is it may take this hire to stabilize the operation and act as a bridge to the next hire, when the waters will be calmer, a couple of years of bad headlines will be further in the distance and PSU is more attractive than it is right now.
Fact Box
Mirror TV
Neil Rudel joins Cory Giger and Ray Eckenrode to discuss the Penn State coaching search. Click on altoonamirror.com to watch.
There's no doubt it's been a great job, with superior facilities and tradition, and can be again.
That all depends, of course, on whether the next guy can win and win big.
Guessing now would be like shooting darts. Do Joyner and committee pal Ira Lubert - the high roller who helped deliver Cael Sanderson - have an ace in the hole? A guy who will make us all say wow?
Maybe not.
First off, there aren't that many coaches who fit that profile, and the ones who do may see the current climate as too turbulent.
Second, since Penn State needs someone with character and integrity, sifting through the pool of college coaches is iffy because most of them are tainted simply because college kids are apt to get in trouble, and those with JoePa's graduation rate are few.
Which may well mean the search will culminate with an NFL guy.
In Penn State's dreams, that would be Mike Munchak, a former Nittany Lion All-American and Pro Football Hall of Famer who is wrapping up his first season with the Tennessee Titans. He could ride in on a white horse.
But he's obviously happy in Tennessee, having spent his entire career with the organization and may not want to bolt after just one year as a head coach. Then again, without a franchise quarterback, he'd have a lot better chance to be coaching the Nittany Lions in 2015 than the Titans.
If not, maybe Tom Clements, a Pittsburgh native and Aaron Rodgers' position coach with the Green Bay Packers, winds up in the throne. His interest has been reported.
Munchak has no recruiting experience while Clements spent three years on the Notre Dame staff (1992-95).
It's been reported that interim coach Tom Bradley has interviewed along with current assistants Larry Johnson and Jay Paterno and former assistant Brian Norwood.
Depending on what you believe, the process has included flirtation or the idea of flirtation with Mark Richt, Chris Peterson, Al Golden and Bo Pelini, but there may not be mutual interest. Ditto Bill Cowher, Jon Gruden and Tony Dungy.
So what was once a plum job may not be anymore. Or at least not now.
With the players scattering after Wednesday's practice and re-convening Monday in Dallas, it's doubtful any announcement will take place until after the TicketCity Bowl game Jan. 2.
At that point, the suspense will presumably end. The longer the wait, the more the anticipation, but don't brace yourself for a superstar candidate.
It may be that we'll all have to be satisfied, in the short term anyway, just to have the position filled.

Flight is on its way back now: http://flightaware.c...e/flight/N559LC
If I were a betting man I'd say Suter's not on that plane whether or not we signed him... They'd announce the signing, but the presser wouldn't be until Thursday at the earliest. No rush on anything (presser-wise, anyway.)

Edward Earl Smith Jr. was, in a word "theatrical," says Dr. Sarah Holleman Brown, his sister-in-law. Smith had a particularly warm spot in his heart for little theatre for almost 50 years.
About Edward
Age: 67
Community: Summerville
Occupation: Banker, actor, director.
People will remember him: As a gifted and passionate, actor and director, as well as a founder of the Flowertown Players.
Affiliation: Summerville Presbyterian Church.
Survivors include: His sons, Edward Earl "Trey" Smith III of Santa Cruz, Calif., and Matthew Todd Smith (Holly) of James Island; two grandsons, August T. Smith and Mylo W. Smith, both of James Island; and one brother, Johnny Smith (Joanne) of Summerville.
Though Smith was a banker by profession, he was a natural born actor and a passionate director, too, Brown says. Theatre is something he got involved in right out college.
Early on, he had the opportunity to perform at Dock Street Theatre once or twice and got more experience in the theatre while living in Spartanburg and his home town of Summerville.
Smith, who was a banker in Summerville, Holly Hill, Ridgeville and Spartanburg for more than 30 years, was born Dec. 19, 1945. He died Nov. 10, with a big part of his heart still belonging to the performing arts.
In the late 1970s, there was no little theatre in Summerville, so he, Peach Boswell and Dick and Rhea Fitzgerald got together and founded the Flowertown Players, with him as its first president.
Smith worked hard, never one to take on a role without studying the character thoroughly, Brown says. He would always adopt the accent, body language and whatever else made the characters he portrayed believable.
Some of his more memorable roles include Fagan in the play "Oliver," she says. It was a special experience for him and son Trey, who was 8 and played one of the orphan boys in the production. He will also be remembered for his performances in productions of "A Street Car Named Desire," "Once Upon A Mattress" and many other plays.
Smith was drawn mostly to comedy, but loved drama as well, Brown says. Whether he was acting or directing, he usually was involved in the kinds of plays that everyone knows and loves.
But, perhaps his favorite performances were as Santa Claus, anywhere.
"I had made him a Santa Claus suit and he played Santa everywhere he lived," Brown. The two adopted a family each Christmas, mostly during the mid-'90s, and he would put on the suit and deliver gifts.
"He embodied the part," Brown says. "He was so believable."
He would tell kids: "I can see into your heart. I know there are bad things you did. But, you have been doing better."
Over the past five years, he was less active, but his creative juices kept flowing.
"He wrote this novel, hoping it would become a play, but it never did," Brown says. "It's called 'Ashes in the Wind.' It's a love story that takes place on Folly Beach."
Brown says she'll miss the way he used to approach her, singing her name.
"He didn't just to walk up to you and say 'Hi.' "

Angelina Jolie's Oscar now missing
YENTL" WAS BARBRA STREISAND'S FIRST directorial effort, and a labor of love. She had been determined for many years to make the movie of Issac Bashevis Singer's short story and play — and she did! The play was a simple thing, the story of a young turn-of-the-century Jewish girl who disguises herself as a boy, to further her education in the Talmud. The movie was something else; a big musical, in which only Barbra sang, though her co-star was Broadway's formidable Mandy Patinkin. (That's because all the songs were Yentl's interior thoughts.)
The new DVD looks deluxe, bordered in gold, with — natch — a beautiful close-up of Barbra on the cover. This is "The 2-disc Director's Extended Edition." Here's what you get: Two versions of the movie … rehearsal footage … deleted scenes (from the private collection of Miss Streisand) … Barbra's 8mm Concept Film with Optional Narration and a feature-length audio commentary track by Barbra and co-producer Rusty Lemorande. In short, a Barbra cornucopia! As the star's fans were quick to note at the time, "You gotta be mental not to love 'Yentl.'"
IT'S A CLICHE THAT PEOPLE PUT THEIR OSCARS in their bathrooms. Ronald Harwood, who won his for "The Pianist," reminds us: "It's the one room everyone has to visit sooner or later." Angelina Jolie, however, doesn't have her Oscar in the loo because she has no idea where hers may be. She gave it to her mother, who hid it because it was so precious. Then her mother died. "I didn't actually lose it," says Angelina. "But nobody knows where it is at the moment."
PEOPLE ARE FLOCKING TO THE ROUNDABOUT because Mary-Louise Parker is such a big deal, not only for her talent but for her TV fame as the marijuana-dealing mama in "Weeds." But I have read three critical reviews which seem to revile the director Ian Rickson and in all of them, the men on the aisle, also refer to Mary-Louise's "Hedda Gabler" as behaving like an "adolescent." This probably amuses Ms. Parker who is the ripe old age of 45.
LOOKS LIKE THE UBIQUITOUS, SUPER-TALENTED Cate Blanchett (she can play anything!) will take over the Maid Marian role in Ridley Scott's Robin Hood movie titled "Nottingham." They decided Sienna Miller was too young for their Robin, the somewhat rotund, weighty and contentious Russell Crowe. So, if they have Cate, they have upped their "classy" status considerably and are ready to roll — except for their leading man. Where is Errol Flynn when we need him the most?
ON THURSDAY, LIZA MINNELLI, ALONG Donna Karan and Howard and Cindy Rachofsky will be honored at AmFAR's NYC gala at Cipriani 42nd Street. They are being recognized for their work in increasing AIDS awareness. Joan Osbourne, of blues, rock and country music fame will perform, along with burgeoning chanteuse Renee Olstead. Her new album "Skylark," hit the stores late last month.
US AIR PILOT AND HERO CHESLEY SULLENBERGER is on the receiving end of offers that will set him up for life. He earns about $138,000 a year in his job but says, "I will be happy to entertain all the things that are coming my way." Virgin Airlines has already invited him to become "the best-paid pilot at Virgin. We'll give him double the salary of anybody else," says Sir Richard Branson.

Friday Lingerie Lust: Stella McCartney & Journelle for Fashion's Night Out
31st August 2012
Vogue's Fashion's Night Out turns four years old this year. On September 6th 2012 stylish events will be held all over the world with special offers, limited edition products and guest appearances.
Last September I popped into Journelle's SoHo boutique in NYC to join the fun. This year they have a wonderful event planned in conjunction with Stella McCartney – a chance to preview Stella's new BASIC line (simply called; 'Stella') along with her autumn / winter lingerie collection for 2012. There will also be the usual fun and games done so wonderfully by Journelle, including competitions to win fabulous prizes.
The new 'Stella' line has been created in keeping with McCartney's eco-conscious focus. Made from organic cotton and recycled hardware, a series of bra shapes with a multifunctional design are lightweight and reasonably priced (a bra costs $68). Looking at the preview images I'm already a huge fan of the new shapes and I love that signature details such as the gold rings and logo have been retained in this collection.
I can't wait to get my hands on this set below:
In conjunction with their Fashion' Night Out event, the lovely folks at Journelle are offering one lucky StyleOnTheCouch reader a chance to win a pair of Stella McCartney's 'tourist knickers':
In order to take part to win you must either:
1) Mention this competition on Twitter by re-tweeting me and mentioning StyleOnTheCouch and @ShopJournelle (you'll find me @StyleOnTheCouch) or,
2) Share this competition on Facebook (you'll find me here).
Just be sure to leave me a comment below to say you've done one or two above and leave your email address so I know where to reach you. The competition is open internationally and the closing date is midnight September 6th. Good luck!
Be sure to visit Journelle if you are in New York City for Fashion's Night Out this year! Details are in the invitation at the top of this blog post.

Perovskia are graceful aromatic shrubs with an open habit. Long spikes of silvery-blue flowers accent its complementary silver-gray foliage. Flowers almost two months from the summer into the fall. Shrub size semi-woody plants for full sun. Drought tolerant. Avoid too moist (wet feet).
Prefers somewhat dry soil with good drainage. To obtain fuller plants, pinch back by 1/2 when they reach 12. Will benefit from gravel mulch. Can be divided every 4 - 6 years in spring or fall. Offsets from side of clump can be dug and transplanted. Shouldn't be cut back further than 1' after frost in the fall, leaving some stem buds for next year's growth. Clean up old foliage and stems in spring.
Our plants are all grown in plantable fiber pots that grow incredibly vigorous plants, eliminate transplant shock, and are 100% biodegradable. They have tremendous advantages over plastic pots.

Most of our resin garden statues were originally carved by village craftspeople in Bali. And, each village still receives a percentage from the sale of each statue. Each statue is cast, finished, and packed by hand in the U.S conforming to California's strict environmental laws.
Resin is a remarkably durable substance that is fast becoming the material of choice for the production of garden ornaments. Resin has the appearance of metal and the feel of wood. It is much lighter in weight than concrete or stone and offers heightened detail.
We chose a beautiful rust patina for the garden statues and allowed them to weather for several months before photographing them. We know you will be extremely pleased with the beauty and workmanship of these images.
Your resin garden statue may be placed outdoors in your contemplative garden or indoors on your altar. If you place your resin garden statue indoors, you'll want to rinse off the fine surface dust. This is best done by placing the statue in your shower or by hosing it down.
You may leave your garden statue outside in the winter, although we choose to bring ours indoors here in the Northeast. Because the extreme cold or heat can damage the statue, we recommend that you not place your statue on a surface that absorbs a lot of heat in the summer (like blacktop), and rather place it in an area with some shade. We also recommend that you place your statue on a stone base. A stone base not only raises the statue and protects it from weed-whackers and lawn-mowers, but also provides a base that won't hold moisture that could freeze in the winter and cause the statue to crack. If left outside, your statue will weather and develop a unique character all its own. And, with proper care, you can expect your resin garden statue to last many years.

5 Post-Apocalyptic Career Choices for Famous Zombie Killers
A couple of weeks ago, when I wasn't desperately trying to seduce Gillian Anderson at the Calgary Expo's X-Files panel, I had the privilege of seeing a discussion with Norman Reedus and Steven Yeun of The Walking Dead. And that got me thinking about zombies. Specifically, Canadian zombies, because I was watching a zombie discussion in Canada. Then I got to thinking about how it took me 15 minutes to get a breakfast sandwich that morning, and how zombie-ism might have been a plausible explanation for my server's delay. But so was Canadianism, so I abandoned that theory. Then I remembered that I had a Cracked column due in a few days, and if I wanted to spend them knee-deep in Molson and poutine, it had to be an easy one. That's when I thought I could rank the most badass zombie killers of all time.
But I couldn't. Because we're Cracked. And we expect more.
"Make these dick jokes funnier. Smarter. More informative!"
So I decided I'd take a simple zombie-killing article and give it a twist: ranking my favorite zombie killers of all time, and then choosing proper careers for them in a post-apocalyptic world.
#5. Ben from Night of the Living Dead
Yes, you heard me, Ben from Night of the Living Dead. Why? Does he have a machine gun leg? Is he a sharpshooter? Does he relish beheading zombies ninja-style? No. He's just some dude in George Romero's 1968 classic, Night of the Living Dead. Or if you're still confused, he's the black dude from Night of the Living Dead. Was that necessary, you racist?
"Seriously? You people disappoint me."
But Ben, portrayed by Duane Jones, makes the list because he was the first zombie hero of modern cinema. He had no frame of reference to guide him. So yeah, he finds cover, saves some people, boards some windows, good for him. How would anyone else even know what to do if not for the trail he blazed? Personally, if I were the protagonist in the first zombie flick, the only thing future generations would learn is, in case of attack, promptly wet yourself and cry.
Post-Apocalyptic Career: Late Night Radio Host
Ben was a cool, sexy man with a smoky voice. When the last zombie falls and society begins again, the people will cry out for a cocksure, silver-tongued man to lay down some smooth tunes on the overnight. And I can't think of a better man for it than Ben. Also, given the state of radio, it's probably a good thing to have a DJ who's comfortable around dead things.
#4. Tallahassee from Zombieland
Tallahassee, portrayed by Woody Harrelson, is a surly redneck who comes to town to kill zombies and eat Twinkies -- and he can't find any Twinkies. And not just because the Hostess company recently filed for bankruptcy, but because, y'know, it's a zombie apocalypse, and that can make things more difficult. He mostly just kicks zombie ass, is what I'm saying.
Much like the bikers from Dawn of the Dead, Tallahassee's killing is about more than survival: It's risen to the level of sport, as seen in the amusement park scene at the end, when he picks off zombies like it's a carnival shooting game. His nihilistic sense of play distinguishes him from so many zombie killers who have come before.
Not to mention being portrayed by an Oscar-nominated actor (with the exception of Daniel Day-Lewis' portrayal of the chainsaw in Evil Dead II. Really lost himself in that role).
Post-Apocalyptic Career: NASCAR Color Commentator
I was thinking Klansman or professional hate-crime committer, but I'm not sure they count as a careers. I'm gonna go out on limb here, but in the post-apocalypse, I see Tallahassee thriving as the color commentator at the newly established NASCAR. Sure, in the post-apocalyptic world, NASCAR might be a series of chariots or pogo sticks, but I can imagine Tallahassee adding his characteristic flair to the sporting event.
Technologies/AbleStock.com/Getty Images
"Time to nut up or shut up ... I mean, uh, time to go fast or, um, be ... last?"
#3. Jim from 28 Days Later
"Why Jim?" you ask. First of all, I hope you asked that like in your head, because if you question Cracked columns out loud, your boss or classmates might wonder who you're talking to. Aww, who am I kidding? You're totally reading this on the toilet. Anyway, I'll tell you why Jim, a mere bicycle courier, makes the list. Because Jim had to deal with something that no one had seen before: fast zombies.
Also, do you know how hard it is to look cool in hospital scrubs?
Did he do more than stay alive? No, but let's have some perspective. Pretend it's vampires. Let's say we have a vampire hunter who is no Van Helsing, but who is dealing with vampires that can go out in the sun and guzzle holy water. Wouldn't outlasting such foes deserve extra praise? Damn straight it would, and that's why Jim's brave fight against zombies in Nikes makes the list.
Post-Apocalyptic Career: McDonald's General Manager
You might say that Jim could just go back to being a bicycle courier, but once a man stares down death, he must go on to better things. I'm pretty sure McDonald's will survive the apocalypse, or at least be the first to rebuild. And when it does, they'll need good men like Jim who are comfortable around speed and the manic consumption of things that probably shouldn't be put in your mouth.

Diy osd (MAX7456 version, OpenSource)
This thread is mainly a deviation of the original "Diy osd (Arduino and opensource)" project.
By using a MAX7456 OSD-chip instead, this makes it a lot easier to implement extra sensors and features.
Flight from Mike_o
Early test
There is a lot of possibilities available in the config-file, some of them are:
Furthermore, the flight-summary will show:
Max LOS is increased to around 500km
An Atmega328 microcontroller is used to do all the data-processing and a MAX7456 OSD-chip is used to make the video-overlay. It can be made with an Arduino and MAX7456 breakout-board, uploaded to other OSD's using MAX7456 and Atmega controller etc.
Code can be found at:
Can't upload to google code anymore, newest version can be found here
Latest version
(NOTE: Caps mounted wrong on picture)
The first test-version
Hook-up diagram by Rick:
(Note - attopilot have voltage-divider build-in and should not have extra voltage-divider as shown here)
Known "issues":
The hardware
The project is compatible with Arduino, but a dedicated hardware design is developed as well.
The latest version of the PCB can be found here:
PCB can be ordered from Seeedstudio, BatchPCB, OSHpark or similiar.
Seeedstudio is 14$ for 10 pieces shipping included.
Just upload the file "OSD_PCB_V1_1.rar" and you are good to go. (If you order from BatchPCB you need to upload as a zip-file, and GM1 must be chosen as board outline).
The list of components can be found here (List made by Bob4432 - thanks):
(Please be aware that crystals should be 16MHz = 887-1086-1-ND and 27MHz = 887-1093-1-ND)
Mouser-list (List made by bstott2 - thanks)
Component placement:
A little explanation of the different components>
1) The slow decoupling-caps are meant as energy-storage, to maintain a stable supply-voltage. They have been placed, to act as a little filter if camera and video-transmitter are connected directly.
2 x 22uF, 10V, X5R, 1206
7 x 10uF, 10V, X5R, 0805
2) Theses caps are used to remove high-frequency noise, and supply the fast current needed for MAX7456 and Atmega328P.
5 x 100nF, 10V, X7R, 0805
3) This is used to AC-couple the output video-signal. The input-video signal is AC-coupled with a small 100nF capacitor, as the input is high-impedance.
2 x 47uF, 6.3V, tantalum, 1206
4) This is the voltage-divider used to measure battery-voltage. 3.3K and 10K have been chosen as default for 4S max.
1 x 3.3K 0805 1%
1 x 10K 0805 1%
5) Resistors used to set the video-impedance. The normal video-impedance is 70 ohm.
2 x 75R 0805 1%
6) Load crystals for Atmega 16MHz crystal
2 x 22pF, NP0, 0805 (perhaps 0603 as the space is a little tight)
7) Pull-up resistors for the Sync-signal etc. on MAX7456 and also a series-resistance on RSSI-input (can be used as any analog input)
4 x 1K 0805 1%
8) Pull-up resistor for Atmega reset-pin
1 x 10K 0805 1% (Note 10K resistor is also used in default voltage-divider)
9) Caps for the 3.3V regulator used for I2C devicces.
2 x 1uF, 10V, X7R 0805
It's a free project with open hardware-design and OpenSource. I have no intention to actually earn money on this project, but as a few have expressed, that they would like to donate a little for the time spent and money used on development etc. I've added a donate-button.
I've started a short documentation, but it's yet pretty small.
Job well done!
Thanks guys
I'll upload a beta-version later tonight, when last changes have been done.

You said,
|| Rick, in config you have to change #define VOLT_GAIN 1 It should match your voltage-divider. If you used 3.3K and 10K try with something like 5.12
The value is calculated something like this;
// Calculated by (1024)/(50*divider)
Edit: Think I might have done it different this time, might by 1/x instead. That gives something like 0.195 in your case " ||
So, I changed the 1 in #define VOLT_GAIN 1 to a 0.195 → no change? So then I changed it to the 5.12 still no change ?
I noticed in config.h
// Input pins
#define VOLT_MEAS 1
#define CURRENT_MEAS 2
But didn't you have me draw up in the schematic Volt measure pin = A0 and Current pin = A2
Shouldn't VOLT_MEAS 1 be VOLT_MEAS 0 ?
Year, sorry about that. Your schematic is right, but my default config was just a quick setup. I just used the pin-config for what I had hooked up when testing on Arduino. It should be:
// Input pins
#define VOLT_MEAS 0
#define CURRENT_MEAS 1
And please try with the value 0.195 for volt_gain, should be right
Will have a new software-version available later. Testing 10Hz GPS atm

Ha, you don't need to be sorry - I'm having a blast - must mean I can partly understand what you are doing
By the way, if you are truly going to keep this Open Source, I think it will be "very" popular - One thing that I would like to see is for you to go overboard with documentation for folks that want to tweak things and learn as I do -
So..... Trial and error ended up with a Volt_GAIN of 3.8 to give the correct 11.0V of the pack ?
Now I see the pack has gone to 10.9 and the OSD is jumping from the 11.0 to 10.6. What happened to the 10.9, 10.8 and 10.7 - I am beginning to suspect the sensor. Do these go bad? I'm using the one as in the schematic.
Maybe I should go back to playing with the ASC756 I notice the ASC756 is what EmmersionRC and Eagle Tree use in their OSD. Is the ASC756 more accurate and/or sensitive?
I'll check the voltage-reading later. What you are describing (and your value 3.8) doesn't sounds right.
The current-sensor shouldn't have any influcence on the measured voltage, only the voltage-divider and settings in the software.
Rick, I just checked. It works fine here with something like 3.3K and 10K resistor and the voltage gain at 0.195.
No jumping voltage etc.. Will just check the remaining ports, 2 sec
Just checked, analog input 0 and 1, works as expected
Try with your multimeter and measure the voltage from the voltage-divider. It should be something like 3 volt.
I don't have the time to sell anything anyway
I will keep it openSource, and document some, but as I don't earn anything in this - and documenting is the borring part, I rarely get it done very good..

I get 0.17V when measured from ground to pin 0.
You can see my voltage-divider
Ha - maybe I used wrong resistors - maybe my sensor is shot ?
From sparkfun:
Voltage sense is accomplished by scaling to 3.3V ADC range by a precision resistor divider.
That explains the problem. In that case you can just ignore the external voltage-divider.
You might loose a little precision as it's meant for 52 volt and only 3.3 volt ADC. If it doesn't work well, you can just use the voltage-divider you already made and connect directly to + on battery instead (actually, desolder the resistor from V and just put it directly on the + pad might be better. Up to you).

I'll experiment, and if that is the case, I'll yank the voltage divider from the schematic so as not to confuse folks that plan to use this particular sensor
So which current sensor are you using ?
You said above, "I currently have this hardware I'll look at when i feel like it
3-axis accelerometer and 3 axis gyro for artificial horizon
Pressure-sensor for thermal/altitude
Plug-in memory to log GPS-data, voltage, current etc"
I was glad to see you considering a pressure sensor, "when you feel like it" What pressure sensor do you have?
These gps units seem + or - several meters in elevation

Malicious Software Distributed in Osama bin Laden Photos
May 11, 2011 | Alerts
The FBI has issued a warning about phishing emails allegedly showing photos and videos of Osama bin Laden's recent death. President Obama decided not to release the photos of bin Laden's corpse. The content of the messages could be malware that can spread to the recipient's contact list, thus sending the fraudulent email to everyone in the contact list. The malware could be programmed to steal personally identifiable information.
Risk Mitigation Tips
Everyone should consider the following risk mitigation tips:
- Alert friends and co-workers to exercise caution when receiving unsolicited emails, including messages received from people known to you. Instruct them not to open attachments or click on links contained in suspicious email and they should not download any photos and videos, including software to view videos, allegedly showing bin Laden's death.
- Social networking sites should take measures necessary to prevent 'friends' from posting content to the website. The website should be monitored for any suspicious postings, including links to other websites.
- Fraud alert email services should be set up to send an alert warning of this method of spreading malware.

Analysis of a Food-Borne Fungal Pathogen Outbreak: Virulence and Genome of a Mucor circinelloides Isolate from Yogurt.
|Publication Type
|Journal Article
|Lee, SC, Billmyre RB, Li A., Carson S., Sykes SM, Huh EY, Mieczkowski P., Ko DC, Cuomo CA, and Heitman J.
|Food-borne pathogens are ongoing problems, and new pathogens are emerging. The impact of fungi, however, is largely underestimated. Recently, commercial yogurts contaminated with Mucor circinelloides were sold, and >200 consumers became ill with nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. Mucoralean fungi cause the fatal fungal infection mucormycosis, whose incidence has been continuously increasing. In this study, we isolated an M. circinelloides strain from a yogurt container, and multilocus sequence typing identified the strain as Mucor circinelloides f. circinelloides. M. circinelloides f. circinelloides is the most virulent M. circinelloides subspecies and is commonly associated with human infections, whereas M. circinelloides f. lusitanicus and M. circinelloides f. griseocyanus are less common causes of infection. Whole-genome analysis of the yogurt isolate confirmed it as being close to the M. circinelloides f. circinelloides subgroup, with a higher percentage of divergence with the M. circinelloides f. lusitanicus subgroup. In mating assays, the yogurt isolate formed sexual zygospores with the (-) M. circinelloides f. circinelloides tester strain, which is congruent with its sex locus encoding SexP, the (+) mating type sex determinant. The yogurt isolate was virulent in murine and wax moth larva host systems. In a murine gastromucormycosis model, Mucor was recovered from fecal samples of infected mice for up to 10 days, indicating that Mucor can survive transit through the GI tract. In interactions with human immune cells, M. circinelloides f. lusitanicus induced proinflammatory cytokines but M. circinelloides f. circinelloides did not, which may explain the different levels of virulence in mammalian hosts. This study demonstrates that M. circinelloides can spoil food products and cause gastrointestinal illness in consumers and may pose a particular risk to immunocompromised patients.
