The NYT Thinks Hollywood Is Looking a Little Marilyn
I think FabSugar will totally agree with me when I say: the ladies of the Golden Globes were looking fierce this year! Everyone looked stunning in their dresses and was glowing with fit, healthy smiles. That's why I am questioning two pieces in the New York Times mentioning the weight of the actresses in attendance.

Taken from New York Times: Faster Fashion, Cheaper Chic By RUTH LA FERLA Published: May 10, 2007 LOS ANGELES COLIBRI EVANS navigated the aisles of Forever 21 at the Beverly Center last week with a sure step and a shrewd eye. Her mother, Sasha Evans, was more circumspect, offering for Colibri’s approval a string of neo-hippie beads Joss Stone might have coveted. “It’s her job to say ‘Yes, No, Yes, No,’ ” Mrs. Evans said, nodding toward her daughter, a 29-year-old music producer.Judge to hear plan to pay $657M to WTC responders
NEW YORK – A settlement that could pay up to $657.5 million to more than 10,000 ground zero rescue and recovery workers sickened by dust from the destroyed World Trade Center goes before a judge Friday, and he has said he favored a settlement but planned to analyze it carefully to make sure it was fair. Mayor Michael Bloomberg called the proposal fair, a sentiment echoed by one of the negotiators of the deal that was announced Thursday night after years of fighting in court. "I think it's a good settlement for everybody," Bloomberg said Friday on his weekly radio show.Parade.com Talk To Robert Pattinson About All The Craziness While Filming "Remember Me" & Getting Good Advice
Robert Pattinson is taking a break from his Twilight stardom to play a rebellious New York college student in Remember Me. In the indie flick, the 23-year-old gets to explode with rage, fall in love with a girl (played by Lost's Emilie de Ravin) and go head-to head with his domineering father (played by Pierce Brosnan).Parade.com's Jeanne Wolf found out what Pattinson had in common with his character's search for identity.Acting as therapy."I try and pick roles that will help me develop as a human being and I think I was going through a similar kind of experience as my character Tyler, which I guess you could call being rebellious.

What's Arabic For 'You're No Atticus Finch'?
by Ann Coulter 03/10/2010 A group of "leading conservative lawyers" -- a phrase never confused with "U.S. Marines" -- has produced an embarrassingly pompous letter denouncing Liz Cheney for demanding the names of attorneys at the Justice Department who formerly represented Guantanamo detainees. The letter calls Cheney's demand "shameful," before unleashing this steaming pile of idiocy: "The American tradition of zealous representation of unpopular clients is at least as old as John Adams' representation of the British soldiers charged in the Boston Massacre."Review: Pattinson still brooding in `Remember Me'
In "Remember Me," Robert Pattinson has temporarily stepped away from "Twilight," apparently in search of his "Five Easy Pieces" or "Rebel Without a Cause."
When Pattinson's character — a wayward, rebellious 21-year-old named Tyler Hawkins — meets who will quickly become his love interest — a fellow NYU student named Ally (Emilie de Ravin) — he informs her that his major is "undecided."
"`Bout what?"
Remember Me
As a shameless contraption of ridiculously sad things befalling attractive people, the engorged romantic tragedy Remember Me stands tall between those towering monuments to teen-oriented cinematic misery, Love Story and Twilight: Beginning with a shock of urban violence set on a subway platform in 1991, then moving forward to a balmy New York City summer a decade later, the movie is one part ''Love means never having to say you're sorry'' and one part
Edward's warning to Bella: ''If you're smart, you'll stay away from me.'' As in Love Story, an angry, fancy-class young man named Tyler (Robert Pattinson) falls in love with a fine, plain-class young woman named Ally (Lost's Emilie de Ravin) on the campus of a renowned American university, and the couple's devotion survives an avalanche of crises that would bury lesser soul mates. As in Twilight, Pattinson evokes the fancy-class man using the combined resources of dark glowers, milky gazes, and fabulously mussed-up hair.
Impressively, the star stuck with Remember Me even after his post-Twilight celebrity soared.
Please, Please, Please Put Your Phone Away
Reader HeyKristen recently posted this rant in the Cell Phone Rant group:
I am a happy and proud iPhone user, and a happy and proud geek, but I have had it with people pulling out their cell phones during conversations, dinner, drinks, or other planned events that do not require the use of a cell phone. Not only is it incredibly rude and off-putting, it's unnecessary and distracting. I live in tech-centric San Francisco, having moved from New York a few months ago, and have noticed this phenomenon in both cities.
