12 Films of Christmas: Desk Set

This vintage Hollywood rom-com, listed as a holiday favorite in Have Yourself a Movie Little Christmas , features one of American film’s most legendary couples: When efficiency expert Richard Sumner (Spencer Tracy) starts sniffing around the research department of the Federal Broadcasting Company TV network, the librarians naturally get suspicious. That department’s head, Bunny Watson (Katharine Hepburn), knows that Sumner is the inventor of an “electronic brain” called EMERAC, and she worries that if he installs one of his super-computers, she and research librarians Peg (Joan Blondell), Sylvia (Dina Merrill), and Ruthie (Sue Randall) will all be out of a job.

Sustainability is Not Black Or White – "More Sustainable" is Possible

I’d like to politely disagree. … Read the full story on TreeHugger

Rumored Couple: Kate Hudson & Matthew Bellamy

A-Rod who? Or more recently, Thom Yorke who? According to People , Kate Hudson hopped a plane to Paris over the weekend and attended the second of two sold-out shows for the British rock band Muse. There, Kate stood in front in an audio tent amid a crowd of 80,000 at the Stade de France. Seems like an awfully long way to go to check out a concert, right? Not if she’s dating the band’s frontman, Matthew Bellamy, a singer, guitarist and songwriter who was seen strolling through a square in Paris with Kate Sunday. “They seemed very much a couple,” a witness said. Are Kate Hudson and Matthew Bellamy a thing? The two were “just walking together, enjoying the sunshine,” and later that afternoon, Hudson and Bellamy opted for a late lunch at the celebrated Brasserie Lipp. Couple or not, the pair were seen leaving through a rear exit of the eatery when celebrity gossip photographers turned up outside. Makes you wonder, eh? Bellamy, of course, isn’t the first musician to catch Hudson’s eye. She was previously married to (and has a son with) Chris Robinson of the Black Crowes. She was also linked to Thom Yorke of Radiohead fame earlier this year, after more publicly dating the New York Yankees’ Alex Rodriguez for much of 2009. In other news, did anyone ever sort out if those Kate Hudson boob job rumors were real? We have no clue. Anyway, good job Matthew! Hope it works out! Did Kate Hudson really get implants?
