Chanel “Cruise” Collection Hits The Streets Of St. Tropez – There was no better location for Karl Lagerfeld to unveil his Chanel Cruise collection for 2010/11 than the world famous fishing village of St. Tropez (just down the drag from where I am). The streets of St Tropez quite literally came to a standstill on Tuesday evening as the fashion maestro transformed one of the avenues by the port into a temporary catwalk. [hellomagazine]

Boy Survives Libyan Plane Crash – A Libyan plane carrying 104 people crashed Wednesday on approach to Tripoli’s airport, leaving a field scattered with smoldering debris that included a large chunk of the tail painted with the airline’s brightly colored logo. A 10-year-old Dutch child was the only known survivor. I don’t want to jump the gun, but I’d say that’s a miracle. [washingtonpost]

Apple Loses Another iPhone – I actually can’t believe it! And judging by the look on your face, neither can you! this time the phone was found in Vietnam, which, according to Gizmodo, may well indicate that it is the final model. I tell you, I should start leaving 2oceansvibe lying around in bars. Maybe Gizmodo will find it and then the whole world will know about it. Actually, that won’t necessarily work. Look at you – you spend your life in bars and nobody’s heard of you! [gizmodo]

Miss Lenoir, who also fronts campaigns for Victoria’s Secret, called an ambulance before cancelling it a short time later. [telegraph]

Malema Disciplinary, The Morning After – It’s the anger management classes that Julius Malema will regret the most. He can handle the fine, which is, what, only about 5% of the cost of his watch. But the anger management classes are going to be the story, the headline, the Rude Awakening joke for the next six months. There’s nothing like humiliation to bring out the anger in a youngster, and it’s going to hurt him badly. [thedailymaverick]

Technology Makes Women Happy – Having access to computers, the internet and communication devices can increase people’s sense of satisfaction and wellbeing, according to research carried out on behalf of BCS, the Chartered Institute of IT. A survey of 35,000 people around the world found that access to information technology had an “enabling and empowering role”, which lead to greater “life satisfaction”. [telegraph]

Brooklyn Decker In A Bikini – These are shots of Brooklyn Decker filming the new Adam Sandler movie Just Go With It yesterday. It is also even more reason to celebrate Adam Sandler. Not only does he cast angels like this is his movies, but he also makes songs like Secret which is possibly one of the funniest videos on YouTube. Anyway, back to Brooklyn. [egotastic]

Facebook’s latest round of changes has triggered a backlash from users, many of whom fear the site is now sharing too much of their personal information with too many.In response, many are taking to Google to figure out how to permanently delete their Facebook accounts.

Viewing Deck Built Into The Side Of Your Private Jet – God, I tell you – in hindsight it’s so obvious! Have you ever wanted a balcony from your jet? BAE Systems’ “Air Deck” does just that, with a balcony that folds right down off the rear of a private jet. The viewing platform, probably the first in aviation history, takes a mere five minutes to transform the back of the aircraft into either an extended living space or an elevated outdoor viewing deck. Finally! [cnet]

Bond Film Aston Maritin Goes On Auction – During filming on Goldfinger, the test car was fitted for the various gadgets – ejector seat, machine guns, etc – that would feature on the silver DB5 driven by Sean Connery as Bond in the film. In 1974 the car was consigned to a garage where it has remained ever since; It’s estimated to fetch £40,000–£50,000. Please, is that all? That puppy is mine! “Ejector seat,” did you say? [luxist]

Seven-Year-Olds Absolutely Kill Beyonce’s Single Ladies – I know you thought that renditions of the song had reached saturation point, but that was before you saw this troupe of seven-year-old dancers absolutely murdering it on stage. Umm, it’s awkward for everyone when they do the whole thrusting vibe, but you shouldn’t let that take away from the sheer brilliance of the performance. Reminds me of when I sang Tina Turner’s Private Dancer at Dizzy’s that time. [huffington]

Elisha Cuthbert Has Lost It – Do you remember that moment you first clapped eyes on Elisha Cuthbert in the film The Girl Next Door? Ja well that’s all changed now. And please don’t ask me why, because I just can’t answer those kinds of questions. She obviously sinned somewhere along the way and God is punishing her. The irony is that God doesn’t realise that, in doing so, he is also punishing us. Hmm.. the Lord works in mysterious ways.  [superficial]

The Telephone: I Am Not Alone – “The telephone was an aberation in human development. It was a 70 year or so period where for some reason humans decided it was socially acceptable to ring a loud bell in someone else’s life and they were expected to come running, like dogs. This was the equivalent of thinking it was okay to walk into someone’s living room and start shouting. it was never okay. It’s less okay now. Telephone calls are rude. They are interruptive. Technology has solved this..”  [stevemathew]
