Following the announcement by Demi Lovato that she’s seeking treatment for an abundance of personal issues, Joe Jonas and Ashley Greene have found themselves under unexpected fire. Fans of the 18-year old singer initially jumped to unfortunate conclusions and blamed Demi’s ex for dating Greene so soon after he and Lovato broke up. The criticism has since died down, allowing these two to focus on their relationship. Which, sources confirm, is going extremely well. Ashley Greene and Joe Jonas: Coffee today, a ring tomorrow?!? E! News quotes a friend that says Ashley’s parents have met Joe and simply adore him. Look for this couple to spend the holidays together. “They are happy as ever right now,” says the pal. And, hey, no signs yet that Greene is corrupting Jonas in any way. So that’s good.

Back in the 60’s the Nutone Kitchen Center was all the rage in high-end kitchens; The idea was that you would have a pile of different appliances and one motor to serve them all, built into the kitchen counter.
