holiday home in Lausanne

the top spot. They revealed the hilarious story behind Nick's proposal, and it is so incredibly fitting of the couple. have her portrait done by fellow artist friends, including Salvador Dali and Pablo Picasso, Chanel invited Pike to her atelier at 31 rue Cambon a mere three days after the two met. So pleased was Chanel with Pike’s paintings — the cheap hermes bagfirst of which was made in 1967 when Chanel was 84 and Pike 54 — that she prominently displayed them alongside her spring 1968 collection. In addition to Chanel’s, Pike also painted portraits of notables like Ronald Reagan, Frank Lloyd Wright, Pope John Paul II, John Wayne, Bob Hope, Rosalind Russell, Claudette Colbert and AndrĂ© Malraux. “Marion put her sitters at ease and let their inner soul radiate in paint,” said Amy de la Haye, the curator of the exhibit. “She did this most effectively with Chanel, who she found endlessly fascinating. However, it is perhaps the ephemera that substantively evidences their friendship: a telegram from Coco to Marion in South East Asia urging her to come home because she misses her, a photograph of the two women laughing together on the balcony

 of Chanel’s holiday home in Lausanne, and more.” As it turns out, Offerman actually fake proposed three times before he popped the question for real. He borrowed fake rings from the Will & Grace costume department, got down on one knee, and proceeded to lose said rings in over-the-top ways (think dropping it off the Eiffel Tower). So, when the real Gucci tote bagproposal came around, Mullally was taken by complete surprise. Cyanogen" Kondik was surrounded by several Oppo ambassadors and tech writers at a hotel lounge in Beijing. It's a far cry from where he began: toying with Android ROMs out of "boredom" about five years ago. "When I started this thing, I had, like, no idea that people would actually care," said Kondik, the creator of CyanogenMod. "I was kind of watching out to see who was going to bring Linux to the first mobile device, in a way that it didn't absolutely suck." In the end, it was Android that stood out with its open-source development, and Kondik saw the potential of adding

his own enhancements to devices running on Hermes new sonctancethis OS. By day, the Seattle-based developer was a lead engineer at a bioinformatics startup in Pittsburgh; but during his free time, he worked on what later became CyanogenMod for the legendary T-Mobile G1, the world's first commercial Android device. And of course, he bought it on the day it came out. The two were wandering the rose garden in London's Regent Park when they finally made it official. As Offerman put it, "We were heading down this path over a bridge by a Japanese garden, and all the ducks, insects, and frogs were furiously copulating around us. I feel like when our coupling is at hand, nature responds with a very positive reverberation. And I was right; she said yes." Well, color us smitten. (Huffington Post)
