Natalie Portman is pregnant and engaged to Benjamin Millepied

"Natalie Portman has revealed her excitement over the big news that she is engaged and pregnant.
"I have always kept my private life private but I will say that I am indescribably happy and feel very grateful to have this experience," the Black Swan actress told Entertainment Weekly in a statement Monday.
Portman, 29, revealed exclusively to PEOPLE earlier on Monday that she and choreographer Benjamin Millepied are engaged and expecting their first child in 2011. The couple met in late 2009 while filming ballet drama The Black Swan, which Portman has received critical acclaim and a slew of award nominations for.French-born Millepied, 32, a classically trained ballet dancer who studied at the School of American Ballet as a teenager, was hired by filmmakers to choreograph Portman's dances. She told Vogue magazine: 'I consume my own weight in hummus every day. I cook a lot, and I even do vegan baking. 'I like pleasure, I like joy. I'd never get to the point where I would starve or injure myself like [my character] Nina does.'I'm the opposite - when I'm hungry, I eat, and I always make sure I'm eating something delicious'.

Water for Elephants released back one extra week

"Fans will have to endure one extra week before making it to the theater to watch their favorite Twilight star Robert Pattinson and Hollywood starlet Reese Witherspoon in the upcoming adaption of Water for Elephants now that the movie has changed its release date to April 22nd, rather than the original date of April 15th! Hoping to take advantage of the Easter holiday weekend, 20th Century Fox has bumped the drama’s premiere date. The movie surrounds “a veterinary student who abandons his studies after his parents are killed and joins a traveling circus as their vet.”
Pattinson is on board as the lead character Jacob Jankowski in the flick that was helmed by director Francis Lawrence, while Reese Witherspoon will play the role of Marlena Rosenbluth. And if that amazing duo isn’t enough to make you want to check out Water for Elephants, maybe a supporting cast of Christoph Waltz (Witherspoon’s on screen husband), James Frain and Paul Schneider, could make you change your mind. It sounds as though the recent release date change may have some fans agitated, but sales at the box office sounds pretty promising with all involved on the project that has been adapted from the novel of writer Sara Gruen".

Robert Pattinson & Kristen Stewart chosen Best Couple of 2010

Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson attending Eclipse - LA Convention (June 2010)

"Twilight actors Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart were named this year's Best Couple according to MTV. Pattinson and Stewart were easily the top choice, beating married Katy Perry and Russell Brand, Jake Gyllenhaal and Taylor Swift, and Chelsea Handler and 50 Cent.
Pattinson's frequent visits to Kristen's non-Twilight film On the Road also raised eyebrows as reports say that Pattinson was jealous of Stewart's co-star Viggo Mortenssen. A gritty photograph showing Kristen and Robert kissing also surfaced on the Intenet this year, further creating buzz around the couple's romance over which the two actors remained mum.

"It doesn't matter how many times I've spoken to someone or how well they know me, I'm just not going to talk about that," said Kristen in an interview.
This year also had the media following Kristen and Robert as they shoot for Breaking Dawn Part 1 & Part 2, the final films in the Twilight Saga. While in Brazil, the two were reportedly found by authorities kissing on the beach. The two were filming in the country for their honeymoon in the fictional Isle Esme.
Pattinson and Stewart were also named Hollywood's most stylish couple which proves that being named as 2010's Best Couple may just be the icing on the cake". Source: hken.ibtimes.com

Cozy places, warm clothes, heat at hand

Owen Wilson and Jennifer Aniston as John and Jennifer Grogan in "Marley and Me" (2008)
"Granny fashion is definitely in this year. Cable knit, oversized, warm and snuggly jumpers and cardigans are a comfy-clothes lover's dream. Paired with skinny jeans or a dress and tights, this relaxed and dressed down look was seen a lot on the Fall/Winter catwalks.Katherine Heigl is renowned for her love of a chunky cardigan and stylists for Jennifer Aniston's new film Wanderlust had her wrapped-up warm on the Los Angeles set in a long grey knit jacket with pockets".

"A longtime knitter, she fantasized about a cozy spot where knitting was the backdrop and visitors could take it from there. When she opened Knit Cafe, little did she realize it would become a pit stop for some of the town's grooviest players.Many of the folks who write and produce the television shows ''Friends'' and ''The Gilmore Girls'' are regulars. Clients of Ms. Hershberger's salon sidle in through the back door -- sometimes with foil and chemicals in their hair. Which perhaps helps explain why, whether you are packing chenille or Baby Cashmerino, knitting at Knit Cafe feels hip. Ms. Greer, who visits daily when she is not out of town on a movie set, may have something to do with that. The actress -- knowing the mousy stigma that can attach to those who make their own woolen goods -- has come up with a rule about knitting in public. ''You can do it, but only if you look really hot'', she said". Source: www.nytimes.com

If you warm your hands by holding a cup of hot coffee, you will have “warmer” thoughts about the people you meet. Even more importantly, you can train your hands (and other parts of your body) to become warm and/or relaxed with people.

"One of the effects of global warming in the sci-fi film is a totally ice-packed New York City and 20th Century Fox thought we warm West Coast journalists deserved a little taste of a what the East Coast has been suffering. Not too sure what to expect, I pull up and wonder why there is an urn of hot chocolate outside on a table. Jake pulls up in a Mercedes wearing a short-sleeved white tee and asks. "Do you think I'll need a sweater?". Uh, yeah, think so, Jake. The actor was given a long-sleeved sweatshirt and a heavy parka.

Me, my big fur-lined coat and hot chocolate joined Jake and others inside a huge icebox room like a meat locker without the meat, where a big block of ice will act as the screen. We sit on carved blocks of ice topped with some anti-slip material and Jake stands up and looks around.
  "I'm in this movie with Dennis Quaid, Sela Ward, Ian Holm and a great new young actress named Emmy Rossum".
