Nicki Minaj Tells Idol Contestant She Wants To Have His Babies
The catty American Idol judges feud between big booty bandit Nicki Minaj and Mariah "MiMi" the diva may be over for now, but that doesn't mean Mrs. YMCMB isn't finding other ways to stir the pot.
She took her antics all the way to the max during last night's show when she told one 18-year-old male contestant that she wanted to have his babies.
via MTV News
Among those meeting "Idol" grim reaper was Johnny Keyser, who was cut last season during Hollywood Week and whose dreams were cut short deep into the competition for the second year in a row.
Also getting axed were Kevin Harris, Chris Watson, Jimmy Smith and the mysterious, unforgettable, glitter-covered JDA.
During the episode, Nicki Minaj showed she's not shy about doling out compliments, telling Kevin Harris, "every single solitary musical choice you made tonight was perfection," praising Chris Watson as "the prettiest man I've seen in my life, ever," celebrating Elijah Liu as "my new favorite boy" and even offering to have one contestant's babies.
Now Nicki know that lil' boy wouldn't know what to do with all that

Named after the David Cronenberg film, this is the blog of former RogerEbert.com editor Jim Emerson, where he has chronicled his enthusiasms and indulged his whims since 2005. Favorite subjects include evidence-based movie criticism, cinematic form and style, comedy, logical reasoning, language, journalism, technology, epistemology and fun. No topic is off-limits, but critical thinking is required.
Can you stand one more "Avatar" post? We've talked about the CGI, the design and palette, the politics, the ins and outs of shooting in 3D... but you can blame this one on the Vatican:
[Much] of the Vatican criticism was directed at the movie's central theme of man vs. nature.
[L'Osservatore Romano, the Vatican newspaper] said the film "gets bogged down by a spiritualism linked to the worship of nature." Similarly, Vatican Radio said it "cleverly winks at all those pseudo-doctrines that turn ecology into the religion of the millennium."
"Nature is no longer a creation to defend, but a divinity to worship," the radio said.
Vatican spokesman the Rev. Federico Lombardi said that while the movie reviews are just that -- film criticism, not theological pronouncements -- they do reflect Pope Benedict XVI's views on the dangers of turning nature into a "new divinity."
I don't know why a "Vatican spokesperson" is speaking up about a science-fiction movie (remember when Pope John Paul II went out of his way to condemn Jean-Luc Godard's "Hail, Mary"?). But I find Lombardi's take on "Avatar" an interesting one. The tale is so fundamental (mythic or simpleminded, depending on your point of view) that it has been praised and attacked from all sides -- as a racist "White Messiah Myth" (by David Brooks), and as anti-imperialist, anti-colonialist, anti-captitalist, anti-military... you name it. (Salon blogger Dragonfly says it's not anti-military but is anti-capitalist, a perfect illustration of the dark side of capitalism, which is "that people are often greedy, unfeeling bastards who will harm and exploit anyone they can for increased profits. Without oversight from some higher authority, they will trash the environment, exploit workers for every last cent, and screw their customers in pursuit of the almighty dollar.")
But the Vatican Rev. may have a point. The planet of Pandora is entirely literal -- every aspect of its nature is visually illustrated for all to see. This is why Rhys Southan, in a brilliant (enlightening, illuminating, downright bioluminescent!) letter to RogerEbert.com argues that the film is less pantheistic than simply a portrait of a world in which faith is irrelevant:
Native Americans had to be creative and spiritual to see the connectedness in life the way they did. Europeans, after all, interpreted the world a little differently. But on Pandora, the connectedness of life, the sacredness of the forest and the existence of a benevolent higher power are all impossible to miss. The Na'vi aren't creatively interpreting their world: they are merely acknowledging the obvious.
In other words, there is no spiritualism to the Na'vi. Their beliefs would be fantastical on Earth, but on Pandora every single one of their convictions are borne out by physical facts. Even the Earthlings and their Earth tools are able to prove the scientific validity of Na'vi claims.
The Na'vi are strict rationalists, but in heaven. Their world is so naturally magical that they don't have to believe in anything they can't actually see. And they don't.
The Na'vi get to have the easy part of religion -- the comfort that life is meaningful and death is not the end -- and they don't even have to do the hard part, which is to take a leap of faith.
No wonder Jake Sully wants to join them. I'm jealous too.
Perhaps that's what the Vatican spokesman is actually objecting to -- not that "Avatar" encourages the worship of God in/as nature, but that it visualizes a world of materialism, devoid of any metaphysical dimension?
UPDATE (01/19/10): NY Times: "You Saw What in Avatar?":
Ultimately, Mr. Vallini said, "the movie doesn't provoke many emotions," and its observations about militarism, imperialism and the environment "are just sketched out as themes."
"It is Cameron's narrative choice," he continued, "as he is aware of the fact that the visual aspect widely compensates for this lack."

West London livingPosted Sep 15, 2014
Pros: Overall, a good day to spend few days in the area without having to pay high prices for in your room breakfast and even dinner.
Location: Access to the Victoria and Albert museum and other museums concentrated in the area as well as Albert hall and Hyde Park was a distinctive plus.
Basically this is a small apartment in an exclusive area of London near a market and tube station. The appointments were modern and efficiently organized for a short stay of few days. We were assigned in a lower ground apartment which was disappointing for we had very limited view of daylight. In our case it was not vital as we were out most of the day but it can be depressing to stay indoors for any length of time during the day. Our apartment was well cared for by the cleaning staff and service was not intrusive. The public areas of the hotel were not greatly used and it gave the impression that we were the only customers there. As outside area, squeezed between two buildings has potential in a sunny day but it is otherwise quite windy.

First class accommodation in atop class location.Posted Jul 14, 2014
Pros: Good quality furnishings. Very quiet yet close to all amenities. Staff friendly and helpful.
Cons: Nothing to note
Location: Pubs, restaurants, supermarket and underground within a few minutes walk. National History and Victoria & Albert Museums within a five minute walk.
Everything you could want for a short break or business visit to London. Spacious room decorated to a high standard. Easy access to central London via nearby tube station. Small but we'll equipped kitchen useful for those wanting the flexibility of self catering. Local shops, restaurant's and pubs meets most people's needs in this respect. Highly recommended.

nice but you can find betterPosted Jun 30, 2014
Pros: the room had a kitchen
Cons: take out the elevator voice. get a new Scale.
Location: you need to walk 30 min to reach Harrods. and you need to change 2 trains to reach Knightsbridge since Piccadilly line dose not go through Gloucester
its ok as a hotel, I was disappointed when I asked for a scale to weigh my lugague they told me we had one long time back but it was never receovered from an old customer and we don`t have one ??!! you are taking from me a lot of money and you don`t have 10 pounds to buy a new scale ? its alittle far from harrods. I found out that the Rembrant is closer with the same price. elevator have an electronic voice that tells you door open or closed, which is too loaud and noisy that you can hear it. you can find better for the price.

Close to tourist attractions.Posted Jun 22, 2014
Pros: Our suite was especially well appointed and clean. Staff were very pleasant and extremely helpful.
Cons: Our three night stay was very pleasant and I am hard pressed to comment re improvements.
Location: We located ourselves in Queens Gate primarily for easy access to local museum tourist attractions.
Our three night stay was a pleasurable experience. Our suite was very clean, comfortable and well fitted out. Location is ideal for local tourist attractions and easy access to public transport. All in all a very pleasant sojourn. All in all a very pleasurable stay. Great suite - well appointed clean and comfortable. Ideal situation for local tourist attractions and public transport.

Great location--near tube station, a Byron Burger (local chain w/bomb burgers & shakes & really friendly service), Paul Bakery (yum!), banks, etc., and a nice area in general. The free coffee & cold water was a HUGE plus for our family. The room was well decorated & laid out (we had an executive suite for our family of four) & had a washer/dryer--huge plus as we did carry-ons only. My tall hubby just had to be a little careful & duck in the loft where our bed was--I think it was only about 6 foot tall. They did have a very good breakfast for 10 lbs per person, just be aware there is a charge as the sign is small and the breakfast attendant didn't tell each family until they had filled their plates. We'd definitely stay there again.

After a decade together, Neil Patrick Harris finally made an honest man out of David Burtka. The two tied the knot over the weekend in Italy. Harris' publicist confirmed the nuptials.
"We happily confirm that Neil Patrick Harris and David Burtka were married in Italy in an intimate ceremony surrounded by their close friends and family," – Neil Patrick Harris representative
Longtime director of How I Met Your Mother, Pam Fryman, officiated the ceremony with Elton John providing a special performance at the reception. The couple's three-year-old fraternal twins, Harper Grace and Gideon Scott, also took part in the celebration. Both Harris and Burtka wore custom Tom Ford tuxedos.

They fell in love in the Big Brother house. It's only natural Jeff Schroeder and Jordan Lloyd get engaged where it all began. The former houseguests entered the Big Brother 16 house on Saturday for this life moment.
Schroeder popped the question to Lloyd in front of friends, family and current houseguests. Can you imagine looking back years from now and trying to remember who Victoria was? LOL. The live feeds were off during this time. Naturally, CBS has to exploit. Watch all the romantic action on Sunday night's BB16 episode.
Jordan and Jeff first met in 2009 on the 11th season of BB. They later returned for Season 13 and competed on The Amazing Race 16. Congrats to the happy couple. Check out a photo of JeJo inside the house after the proposal.
Simone Battle was found dead in her Los Angeles home on Friday. Though no official cause of death has been released, TMZ reports the 25-year-old singer was discovered hanging on a rod in her bedroom in an apparent suicide.
Battle competed on the first season of the US version of The X Factor. After the show, she released a solo single, "He Likes Boys" before joining Robin Antin's new Pussycall Dolls-like girl group, G.R.L. Antin released a statement addressing the tragedy.
"We are deeply saddened by the tragic loss of Simone Battle of G.R.L. Simone was an exceptional young talent and human being, and we are all devastated to learn of her passing. Our thoughts and prayers are with her family and loved ones at this time." – Robin Antin
This is truly so sad. I was a fan of Simone on X Factor and became a bigger one as part of G.R.L. I wonder if the group will continue as a foursome or if Antin will find a replacement. Check out her videos and performances below.
After being in a medically induced coma for a week, comedy pioneer Joan Rivers has passed away at the age of 81. Last Thursday, she went into cardiac arrest and stopped breathing during an outpatient procedure. Prior to the medical emergency, Rivers was considered to be in generally good health.
"It is with great sadness that I announce the death of my mother, Joan Rivers. She passed peacefully at 1:17 pm surrounded by family and close friends. My son and I would like to thank the doctors, nurses, and staff of Mount Sinai Hospital for the amazing care they provided for my mother.
Cooper and I have found ourselves humbled by the outpouring of love, support and prayers we have received from around the world. They have been heard and appreciated.
My mother's greatest joy in life was to make people laugh. Although that is difficult to do right now, I know her final wish would be that we return to laughing soon." – Melissa Rivers
Despite several high-profile relationships biting the dust, Jennifer Lopez is still optimistic about finding love. The 45-year-old entertainer opens up to Elle UK about finding that elusive 'one.'
Lopez definitely shouldn't lose any sleep over it. I'm sure she won't have any problems scooping up another beau. Woman is stunning and can snag any man she wants. Hell, I'd even turn in my gay card. She's breathtaking.
Check out more pictures snapped by Txema Yeste below. The publication's October 2014 issue goes on sale tomorrow, September 4.
"No! I still believe in love. The nirvana man, he's out there somewhere. But you just have to work at it. You have to work at everything."
It's official. Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are finally hitched.
A rep for the couple confirm they tied the knot in Chateau Maraval, France last Saturday in a private ceremony attended by their children, family and friends. Reportedly, Jolie walked down the aisle with sons Maddox and Pax, while Zahara and Vivienne threw petals. Their other children, Shiloh and Knox, served as ring bearers.
Fingers crossed the actual 2014 MTV VMA telecast will be half as entertaining as the rehearsals. If it is, it'll be a show to remember. Both Nicki Minaj and Iggy Azalea experienced mishaps during their respective sets. Luckily for us, TMZ was there to witness it all.
While Britney Spears was able to handle a boa constrictor with ease during her iconic performance at the 2001 VMAs, Nicki Minaj wasn't so fortunate. Or should I say one of her backup dancers. According to TMZ, a female performer was bitten by an anaconda. She was reportedly rushed to hospital where she's being treated for a possible infection. No word on whether Minaj plans on keeping the snake during her routine.
When it was time for Azalea to take her run-through, she took a tumble. A bad one at that. The Aussie fell off the stage during her "Fancy" performance. Security guards immediately came to the rescue and pulled her back up without any serious injuries. Taking it all in stride, Iggy posted the fall via Instagram, praising how she continued to rap despite the mishap. Check it out below.
Life is a cabaret, old chum. At least, Emma Stone's life will be for a little while.
The 25-year-old actress is set to make her Broadway debut this Fall. She'll don slinky black attire to play Sally Bowles in the musical Cabaret. Her first performance will take place on November 11, just two days after Michelle Williams departs. Reportedly, she'll stick with the production until February 1, 2015. Better start planning that trip to NYC soon.
Directed by Sam Mendes and Rob Marshall, the production stars Alan Cumming, reprising the role of the Emcee that won him a Tony Award the first time around in 1998. The cast also features 2014 Tony nominees Linda Emond and Danny Burstein, along with Bill Heck, Aaron Krohn and Gayle Rankin.
Does Emma have what it takes to belt out the musical's iconic numbers? Watch a video below where Stone sings "Bitch" during a singing competition on VH1 years ago and decide for yourself. Enjoy.

Cavalli Store At NorthPark Center Draws Protest
Get Breaking News First
DALLAS (CBSDFW.COM) - Luxury retail store Roberto Cavalli at NorthPark Center was under fire Friday by Sufi students. The protestors called for the famous fashion label to remove the Sufi emblem from its clothing.
The group said the retailer uses a rotated version of the sacred Sufi symbol in its ready-to-wear "Just Cavalli" line.
Sufism, mystical Islamic belief and practice in which Muslims seek to find the truth of divine love and knowledge through direct personal experience of God, according to Encyclopedia Britannica. It consists of a variety of mystical paths that are designed to ascertain the nature of humanity and of God and to facilitate the experience of the presence of divine love and wisdom in the world.
Italian designer Roberto Cavalli hasn't comment on the protests, which took place globally.
After attempting to contact Cavalli and being repeatedly ignored, the students have launched a social media campaign on Twitter (#TakeOffJustLogo), YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, SufiRights.com and Change.org to raise awareness and support.

Techland's Hellraid re-unveiled for next-gen consoles
Techland has re-revealed their long-lost fantasy brawler Hellraid for next-gen consoles.
Hellraid began life as a Dead Island weapon mod inspired by playing ninties adventures Hexen and Heretic but it had disappeared from view for some time.
Now, with a technology switch from Techland's older engine to their new Chrome 6 technology (the same engine that powers Dying Light) it is coming to next-gen consoles and will even hit Steam Early Access in the autumn.
Hellraid's producer Marcin Kruczkiewicz explains the delay, "Basically, we've built a new melee and magic combat system from scratch, and it's really changed how the game is played and what experience you get. Shifting from four character classes to one universal class that has access to all previously class-specific skills was also a major decision."
"We believe it's a good one too," he continued, "because players will be free to adapt the character to the play-style of their preference. A lot of people playtesting Hellraid weren't satisfied that they couldn't combine, for example, the Barbarian's battle strength and two-handed axes with the Mage's resistance and powerful spells or the Rogue's agility and crossbows. Well, now they can combine them however they like."
Thanks VG247.

Iran at odds with US, Russia on smallpox stocks
GENEVA (Reuters) - Iran spearheaded opposition on Monday to a U.S. and Russian-backed plan to postpone fixing a date to destroy the world's last known stocks of live smallpox virus.
A debate over when to destroy stocks held in the United States and Russia has rumbled on for 25 years and resurfaced late last week.
Lengthy talks had yet to come up with a compromise on Monday between those such as Iran that want the stocks destroyed and the United States and other powers that say a decision should be put off for another five years.
"You could say Iran is using this issue," a source close to the discussions told Reuters on condition of anonymity. "But it isn't just Iran. It's more or less a division between the developed and the developing world."
Iran is at odds with the United States and other powers over its nuclear programme, which Tehran has insisted is only aimed at generating electricity, not atomic weapons.
The source said a decision had to be taken on Tuesday at the latest, the final day of the World Health Organization's annual meeting in Geneva, but added: "They could decide not to decide".
The United States has argued more research is needed into vaccines against the disease eradicated more than 30 years ago. It also wants guarantees that all other stocks have been destroyed or transferred to their two official repositories.
Some countries have argued technology exists to develop vaccines and anti-virals without a live virus and those on both sides of the divide have raised concerns about germ warfare.
Countries, such as Iran, have said the risk of stockpiles falling into the wrong hands was a reason to destroy them now.
The United States has said the virus samples were needed to create vaccines as the population no longer had immunity to the disease.
In February, Siga Technologies Inc was awarded a U.S. government contract for a smallpox antiviral.
Smallpox, an acutely contagious disease, was eradicated worldwide in 1979, the WHO certified, two years after the last case was detected in Somalia.
In addition to the U.S. and Russian stores of smallpox virus, the WHO maintains a vaccine emergency stockpile of 32.6 million doses kept securely in Switzerland.
On Monday, Iran proposed a vote on the smallpox issue, an unusual step as the 193-member United Nations agency reaches most decisions by consensus. Other nations rejected Iran's suggestion in favour of setting up a working group to seek a compromise.
The other business of the annual WHO assembly was largely complete, officials said on Monday.
A previously-agreed landmark deal to improve preparedness for a flu pandemic by allowing virus samples to be shared globally in exchange for vaccines produced from them was expected to be rubber-stamped, one source said.
At the weekend, the WHO also unanimously endorsed a resolution on the prevention and control of non-communicable diseases (NCDs), which include cancer, heart disease and diabetes.
"It's (NCDs) not just an enormous health problem, it's becoming a major problem with a significant social, economic dimension because of links to poverty," Ala Alwan, assistant director-general of the WHO, told reporters on Monday.

Plot Summary: From the trailblazing naughtiness of Bettie Page to the pole-dancing craze of modern housewives, the continual mainstreaming of adult entertainment is undeniable. Now comes "Naked Ambition, An R-Rated Look At An X-Rated Industry" from renowned celebrity photographer Michael Grecco that offers an unabashed peek under the silken covers of one of the few remaining concealed idiosyncrasies of pop culture, the multi-billion dollar porn industry.
"Naked Ambition, An R-Rated Look At An X-Rated Industry" takes the audience to a surreal setting where thousands travel each January: the Adult Video News Awards � charmingly sometimes called "the Oscars of Porn." Culling from two recent AVN awards shows and conventions, Grecco gained access backstage and in every other area of the four-day Las Vegas pornography extravaganza. The result is a unique look that captures artistic, revealingly human portraits of porn stars and filmmakers, both legends and literal newcomers. Along with human subjects, the documentary features provocative props, hardware, footwear, sex toys and gadgets used exclusively in the adult industry.
"Naked Ambition, An R-Rated Look At An X-Rated Industry" will titillate and surprise because of the journeys these X-rated performers made from anonymity to erotic stardom.

Cost cutting spurs more IT spending
Local IT service companies see more work in pipeline
Send this story to a friend
- Michael Sheffield
A recent survey conducted by Robert Half Technology shows 37% of CIOs for mid- to large-size companies are planning to implement technology upgrades in 2010, a trend that already is evident to some local IT companies.
Nashville-based Zycron Information Technology Services and Solutions sees this continuing through 2010. Zycron has offices in Chattanooga, Pittsburgh, Dallas and Latin America, but counts Memphis as its largest, with 50 employees.
Zycron CEO Steven Howard Smith says larger clients have held off on IT spending for the last two years, but have started to loosen the purse strings this year by looking to consultants to reduce costs.
That has Zycron hiring this year.
"Saying we would double it (50) would be a bit much, but we're well on our way," he says. Zycron reported $21 million in revenue in 2009, the most since it started in 1991.
Stephanie Drouillard, Memphis branch manager for Robert Half, says new technologies such as virtual networks allow companies to grow business while cutting costs. Virtual networks eliminate the cost of buying and maintaining servers, in favor of having an IT company maintain the server for less money.
"These are mostly large companies of more than 100 employees, but you'd be surprised at the number of small- to mid-size companies taking advantage of this as well," Drouillard says.
She says IT layoffs often affected whole departments, so firms like Zycron can hire employees that are technically experienced and fit their culture.
Southern Eye Associates replaced its three servers with three virtual servers that are maintained at the collocation center of NexTek, its IT services provider. Southern Eye Associates has 48 employees at its three facilities in Memphis, Southaven and Olive Branch. All of the company's IT needs can now be maintained from one offsite location, says Lori Jennings administrator for Southern Eye Associates.

Monochrome – SS15
It's as if they were staring into the mirrored gloss of a lake's surface, their eyes attempting to adjust to the majesty of it all. The visage of this alien world seemingly familiar but skewed and distorted by a simple metamorphosis of colour. Their feet skim, weightless, atop the venerated ground of this long forgotten world, as they prepare to begin a new adventure in this chapter of intergalactic exploration.
'Monochrome' transport us to alien territory for SS15, with a collection inspired by the future possibilities of space travel.
The range is a stunning amalgamation of technological sports-wear with stellar new wave prints and a vibrantly saturated colour palette. The combination of beautiful curved silhouettes, formed through the designers' use of highly mathematical laser cutting techniques and complex geometric pocketing produces a feast for the mind and eye alike.
The collection also presents a heavy focus on symmetry within the construction of the garments, leading to the formation of beautifully crafted tailored pieces. In addition to this, the brand has graciously bestowed upon us a range of brilliantly innovative solar protective accessories, which have been layered with delicate transparent silks.

ODESZA - Say My Name (feat. Zyra)
Undercover - SS15
Her eyes flutter and with each pulse of a lash, your heart beats faster, you'll follow her into disaster. Through twisted woods and out onto a grassy knoll, strange creatures appear, drawing you near, until all that you fear becomes apparent. Her skin is cold and her heart doesn't beat, you're just her prey at her feet.
Jun Takahashi presented another runway gem for Undercover's SS15 PFW showcase, realizing a dark and twisted fairytale of unforgiving, deadly love and the cold-hearted duality of women.
Monolithic red cherries, emblazoned with menacing skulls, were strewn across the catwalk setting the tone for the saccharinely macabre spectacle that was to unfold.
Leather and rubber fetishized what was essentially an eclectic cocktail of eras and styles. The collection showcased everything from timeless 50's style hostess dresses with chiffon shirt tops and separates adorned with classical visuals, to highly conceptual pieces (such as a tutu inspired by Darren Aronofsky 'Black Swan') and sturdy black leather biker jackets.
Daniel Everett
Working across a broad spectrum of artistic mediums, Daniel Everett explores the blasé nature of todays post '.com' generation, focusing largely on the implications of outdated technologies on todays contemporary culture.
His works are a fantastical manifestation of a poignant social commentary, often appearing 'glitchy' and distorted.
His works also manage to maintain a level of whimsy rarely seen in today's overly serious contemporary art market, through his use of unconventional materials such as strips of pink chewing gum.
All images are from Daniel Everett's 'New Existence' collection.
Kristian Aadnevik
As a new religion locks the old world in its choke hold, the once celebrated pillars and temples of an ancient faith are left to crumble into rubble and dust, strewn across towns and cities like the spores of a distant memory. Their idols now walk among us as mere mortals. Olympus has fallen and there is nothing they can do to save it.
Kristian Aadnevik brings heaven to earth, serving up a visual feast of decadently divine dresses and separates for SS15. Inspired by ancient Greek mythology, Aadnevik weaves together classical Greek visuals with contemporary design techniques in order to create a powerfully feminine spectacle of glamour and luxury. .
Elegantly fluid fabrics that drape from the body with ease, along with Intricately designed lace are juxtaposed by rigorously crafted, form fitting bustiers and striking laser cut gold dresses, skirts and accessories.
A smorgasbord of majestic neon hues also plays into this titanic contrast, as they are paired together with an array of heavenly nude tones, beiges and whites, helping to create an epic visual worthy of the gods themselves.
As a sweltering tropic heat consumes everything around her, the cool breeze begins to bluster, wicking the clothes from her young and nimble body. The towels and shirts that once lay softly against her skin now lay strewn atop callous rocks and driftwood. The surrounding boys recline on damp deck chairs, eyes transfixed on her bare frame, watching her with amorous intent as she wades into the crystal ocean water.
Jacquemus presented an ultra kitsch tale of teenage frivolity and youthful holiday antics for SS15, taking a rather tongue in cheek approach to the usual summer vacation theme.
The classic horizontal stripe, synonymous of French nautical culture, was amplified and given a youthful twist through the use of enlargement and a pop colour palette. This motif was applied to everything from teenybopper A-line mini-dresses and off the shoulder crop tops, to super cute bikinis that peaked out from underneath white cotton mini skirts and oversized dress shirts.
Beautifully abstract silhouettes, inspired by familiar beach parasols, also played a heavy part in the collection, extending from the body as though to imply some form of static movement. These architectural feats in textile construction provided a more adult edge to the range and really showcased Jacquemus' exceptional skill as a designer.
Marni – SS15
The silver shimmer of moonlight grazes our skin, its glow as soft as silk as we walk serenely through the garden in the dead of night. Our hands hover over plants and flowers, caressing bonsai leaves and chrysanthemum petals as they drift into focus. Our minds are, once again, consumed by animalistic instinct and visions of a more natural world.
For SS15, Marni became one with nature, presenting a collection of beautifully bold florals and cascading waterfall like frills at MFW. The show began with a range of garments that had been rendered in soft earthy tones, such as beiges, eggshells and whites and had drawn heavy influence from traditional Japanese cuts, reimagining everything from Judo trousers, Obi belts and Kimonos.
As the show progressed, vibrant florals began to take root in these earthy tones, blooming upon everything from asymmetric A-line dresses to clinically clean cut separates, consuming the collection in a vibrant array of daffodil yellows, tulip reds, moss greens and brilliant golds.
Stunning patchwork pieces made up the latter segment of the collection, piecing together jet-black floral embroidery, mosaic like mirrored tiles and all manner of elaborate jeweled embellishments.
The collection is definitely one of our favorites from MFW, with its effortlessly impactful, nature fueled aesthetic and its beautifully juxtaposed clean lines and fabulously over the top prints.
Emilio Pucci – SS15
The free thinking libertine culture of the 1970's came back in force, as a flower bomb of mesmerizing colours and bold prints exploded on the Pucci runway at Milan Fashion Week. The blast rippled through the venue, causing the hearts and minds of the fashion world to open in bloom like the pastel petals of spring.
Peter Dundas rewound the clock to a time where fashion was rebellious, overtly expressive and visually mesmerizing, with a collection of vintage cuts coated in nostalgic prints that have taken on new meaning on todays contemporary catwalks.
Long flowing maxi dresses were displayed in a plethora of intricately cut Poitano pottery prints and psychedelic tie-dyed fabrics, each one more vibrant than the next.
Stunningly embroidered florals adorned everything from crocheted ponchos to fringed leather bell-bottoms, using modern techniques to update upon classic Boho style and knee high suede boots were paired with playful mini dresses and bathing suits, made available in a range of hues typical of the era.
SBTRKT - THE LIGHT ft Denai Moore
Moschino – SS15
Wide set, childish smirks creep across our faces. Heady fumes of pressed polyurethane flood our nasal cavities as our blush pink fingernails tear through the box's monogrammed seal, allowing quivering hands to grasp at our icon's petit frame.
It came as no surprise to us that Jeremy Scott, after fast food and Gangster Rap culture, has firmly set his gaze upon the perfectly molded miniature of the beauty industry standard that is Barbie.
For the first half of the show, Scott flooded the Moschino runway with effervescent bubblegum pink outfits, ranging from monogrammed tracksuits to chiffon coated mini dresses, which were complimented by a range of super kitsch accessories: bright pink vanity mirror phone cases, a bright yellow camera and a clutch shaped like a hanger.
The colour palette then diversified into a veritable rainbow of ultra feminine hues, encompassing everything from lemon yellow fishtail dresses and sultry red fur wraps, to a show stopping white pearlescent tuxedo.

The mind, by its very nature, is malleable. Its twists and bends in a multitude of ways, constantly adapting and evolving, realizing new visions and forging our own mythologies.
Like complex, digital Rorschach images, Price Bullington's works provide an in depth look into his psyche, handing us the keys to his wonderland. But through our visual exploration of the dark depths of his mind, we may come to discover more about our own than we had initially hoped.
Pharrell X Adidas Originals
Two icons merge into a creative tempest, raining down upon us a message of love and equality. Pharrell Williams' name morphs with chameleon like vigor into the third line of Adidas' classic tri-stripe motif, leaving in its wake a bold equals sign hovering serenely above.
September 20th will see the rebirth of two iconic Adidas styles, reimagined by musician and all round creative entity, Pharrell Williams and will mark the beginning in a series of collaborations between the pair.
The Superstar track jacket and the Stan Smith pump will kick off the collaboration and will be available in three striking monochrome colours; black, blue and red. The collection will be available for purchase worldwide, both in store and on the Adidas website.

What I find interesting is the way people look when they are lost in thought, when their face becomes angry or serious, when they bite their lip, the way they glance, the way they look down when they walk, when they are alone and smoking a cigarette, when they smirk, the way they half smile, the way they try and hold back tears, the way when their face says they want to say something but can't, the way they look at someone they want or love… I love the way people look when they do these things. It's… beautiful."(via psych-facts)

Btrfs Did Regress Hard In The Linux 2.6.35 Kernel
Published on 09 August 2010 07:49 AM EDT
Written by
Michael Larabel
Linux Kernel
17 Comments
This morning we published
benchmarks of ZFS, EXT4, and Btrfs
when running these three popular file-systems off a high-performance OCZ Vertex 2 solid-state drive and also a 7200RPM notebook hard drive. To a fair amount of surprise, the EXT4 file-system ended up beating out Btrfs on the SSD in a number of tests, which was a change from our tests when using the EXT4/Btrfs modules on previous kernels. It was even more surprising since Btrfs has an SSD-optimized mode where as EXT4 does not. However, it turns out this is part of a major performance regression for this file-system in the Linux 2.6.35 kernel.
Over the weekend, another Btrfs tester
reported in on regressions
that he found where the affect of using the Linux 2.6.35 kernel with this file-system resulted in as much as a 10x performance hit under write-heavy workloads. This 2.6.35 regression was tracked down to
this Git commit
that was described as "Shrink delayed allocation space in a synchronized manner is more controllable than flushing all delay allocated space in an async thread."
Chris Mason, the Btrfs lead developer,
quickly responded
that Btrfs is not being aggressive enough in allocating chunks of data, which is making the flusher come in and start data I/O. Chris is now working to reproduce and address this issue. No fix has yet been committed, but it's expected that it will land within the
Linux 2.6.36 kernel
Other users that have been trying Btrfs on Ubuntu 10.10, which
adds Btrfs installation support
and is using the Linux 2.6.35 kernel, have also been having some troubles.
Here's an open bug
on Launchpad where carrying out a Btrfs Ubuntu installation takes about two hours to install with the root Btrfs file-system where as on the same system with an EXT4 file-system it takes just about 15 minutes. We can confirm this problem too with Ubuntu 10.10 at present.
It's a pity that our
daily Linux kernel performance tracker
hadn't caught this regression on the day it was pulled into the Linux kernel, but the Btrfs test system running daily benchmarks of the Linux kernel happened to crash and it's not yet back online. Needless to say, we will have new Btrfs benchmarks once this regression is worked out.

too techy
--Extra large bath towels and hand towels at the sink. --Very quiet.
--Too sleek and modern, didn't feel at home in the room. --Pillows were very large and hard (I swapped out a folded bath towel). --Lobby looked like a bar.
The set up and the different areas to chill out and meet new people .Self check in and also internet access
The bathroom and the sink being in the bedroom
check in
The folks at CitizenM have obviously done their homework regarding what a traveller needs for a short-term stay. Excellent bedding (sleep), good food, reasonable price, superb internet and wifi connection, opportunity for social connections, helpful gracious and cheerful staff (fantastic!), quiet rooms (despite being next to an airport) and flexibility regarding check-in and check-out. The lounges, library and area around the buffet and bar were inviting and full of residents - unlike most hotel lobbies. The provision of desktop computers and a printer was helpful for printing boarding passes. This is a hotel that has got it right - well done.
convenience of the check in and check out. Good food
shower head too large for a small person would have liked some luggage carriers to go to the shuttle
room environment was perfect. slept like a baby. Food and services were excellent
nothing, rooms small but very efficient use of space, this was not an issue for us
Let me count the ways...cheerful, smiling, helpful PROFESSIONAL staff--fabulous mattress--light & bright room that was clean, clean clean--and we loved the quirky, colorful lobby décor. I had no idea about this hotel: I booked it because of the location, price and bed size, and we were so pleasantly surprised! I am a former meeting planner and very picky about the services that a property provides, and this was just about perfect. We thought that the checkin/checkout system was well-designed and easy.
It would have been nice to have peepholes in the guestroom doors. I was not travelling alone on this occasion, but when I am, I always like to be able to see who is knocking on my door! The only other thing that was even remotely improvable was that the staff to bus the tables in the lounge area got behind, probably because the dinner service was more popular than expected, and even though the staff was working quickly and efficiently, there were people standing around with plates of food and nowhere to sit. This did not last long.
Very modern, staff was very helpful, clean, very quiet and I stayed at an airport location. Great value for the money. I highly recommend this hotel!
One or two of the light buttons did not work, but it was not a big deal because I then used the little tablet beside the bed to operate the lights.
The way it was looking..And build
Poor service at the bar...very slow..
everything! especially the manager.He was so much help thru my stay.
there is nothing I didn't like
Loved the vibe, the spaces to relax in were ambient and abundant, the pared down check-in process was good, as was the wifi. Free movies much appreciated.will definitely stay again
I loved just about everything at citizenM Paris de Gaulle Airport! It was clean, comfortable, and fun. The staff was extraordinary; cheerful,friendly and helpful. My only regret was that I was only there one night.
My only disappointment was the quality of the food served at the dinner buffet. It was alright, but didn't match up to everything else the hotel had to offer.
Nice bed. Interesting room. Mostly helpful staff, albeit rushed. Very quiet at night in room.Reasonably priced breakfast and lunch. Everyone spoke English very well when required. Easy access to CDG Airport. Easy access to Paris on RER train if you like to live dangerously.
The ride into Paris on RER. Felt like I was in "Clockwork Orange" a couple of times. Not a family trip. I don't like to pay up front for hotel rooms. Like paying for dinner before you eat. A little hectic in the unusual lobby. Reception personnel always rotating. Hard to call lobby from room.
Absolutely everything. This hotel was designed and thought through. Just for the traveller.
The polyvalence of the staff, the charm of the décor, the excellence of the services provided. The guest is at home.
Nothing to say, really.
Room setup. Bar
The view.
The Roof in our room became the night sky, very cool. The young man at the bar was a wonderful employee, I would give him a job in a minute, Also the young ladies were nice also. I believe his name was Kirev or something like that. He was Tall with a shaved head. Just a Great young man. and fluent in about 5 languages I think. He was great to everyone. You just don't see that type of employee very often nowadays. Citizen M give that man a raise.
The tv controller was in the drawer under the bed and I didn't figure this out until the morning I was leaving, I had a wee bit of a hard time controlling tv with Ipad like device. but otherwise loved this hotel
Good location Modern and funky hotel
Price is high and despite of that breakfast is not included;
very comfy bed free usage of computer and printer helpful staff quiet convenient great breakfast self check-in service
A great relaxed feel The lounge areas and books were wonderful Bedding and lighting in the rooms was great Staff were so good at noticing when assistance was required and all responded very positively to any request
As a first time user, orientation was a little tricky for checking in and the catering system - however, once the system had been observed and explained, the lack of signage was a welcome feature. it would be nice for there to be outdoor seating that is non- smoking - why do the smokers get to look at the stars and enjoy the evening air while non-smokers get fogged back inside ?
Everything. The location, quick&easy check-in, check-out, friendly staffs, 24hr open bar, fantastic room that can be controlled with the galaxy tab. The food is little bit pricy but well, it's just next to the airport! I'll definitely come back when I have early flights from CDG.
There was small black stain at the end of the bed sheet.
No hot food was there. The Hotel is meant for passengers, they should have 24/7
Facilities quite good if you are just wanting to recover from flight before proceeding.

My Least Favorite Trope (and this post will include spoilers for The Lego Movie, Guardians of the Galaxy, The Matrix, Western Civilization, and—cod help me—Bulletproof Monk*.) is the thing where there's an awesome, smart, wonderful, powerful female character who by all rights ought to be the Chosen One and the hero of the movie, who is tasked with taking care of some generally ineffectual male character who is, for reasons of wish fulfillment, actually the person the film focuses on. She mentors him, she teaches him, and she inevitably becomes his girlfriend… and he gets the job she wanted: he gets to be the Chosen One even though she's obviously far more qualified. And all he has to do to get it and deserve it is Man Up and Take Responsibility.
And that's it. Every god-damned time. The mere fact of naming the films above and naming the trope gives away the entire plot and character arc of every single movie.Elizabeth Bear - My Least Favorite Trope (via feministquotes)
The premise of minimum wage, when it was introduced, was that a single wage earner should be able to own a home and support a family. That was what it was based on; a full time job, any job, should be able to accomplish this.
The fact people scoff at this idea if presented nowadays, as though the people that ring up your groceries or hand you your burgers don't deserve the luxury of a home and a family, is disgusting.
