Annette Bening "The Kids are all Right"

Annette Bening "The Kids are all Right" - In movies, Annette Bening took home the award as best actress in a comedy or musical for her role as a suburban lesbian mom in The Kids Are All Right. She paid tribute to one of her rivals in the category, Julianne Moore, who played her partner in the film, and talked her into doing the movie.

"Julianne, you are a class act, thank you," she said. She also paid tribute to whom she called the 1962 award winner for "most promising young actor," her husband Warren Beatty.

Disney/Pixar's Toy Story 3, a box-office juggernaut, won for best animated feature film, against major competition such as Disney itself for Tangled.

Christian Bale took the night's first award, for best supporting actor in The Fighter, the story of a Massachusetts boxer and his family and their effort to win a championship. The Fighter is also up for five other awards, including best picture, at the 68th annual Globes, the prizes for film and TV handed out by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association.

Bale accepted the award, joking that he never really knew much about the HFPA "and now I realize how perceptive they are."

I've had a final retail Kinect unit at home for a little over a week now, and have had ample time to put the shiny new gadget through its paces. Is it as magical as expected? Will it transform gaming? Or, more importantly, does it even work? Read on past the break for my in-depth review of this ambitious apparatus. Kinect is a single piece of hardware, yet it incorporates several distinct technologies. There's an infrared emitter that floods your play space with invisible light, paired with a CMOS sensor that then l...

Best Indoor Exercise

Best Indoor Exercise - There are several indoor exercises you can do to keep in shape. But which are the best? They can be split in to two categories. The first is body weight exercises, meaning you use your own body weight to provide resistance. The second is using some sort of equipment. There are pros and cons to both. The biggest advantage to doing body weight exercises is they can be done anywhere. Whether you're on holiday, travelling for work, or if you just want a quick exercises to do. There are quite a few body weight exercises that can be done. If you wish to work out your abdominal muscles, sit ups or crunches are a good one. Doing pull ups on a door frame will work out your lats and back. Squatting with just your body weight will work out your thighs and calves. There are also indoor exercise machines by the hundreds. There's the traditional treadmill and exercise bikes which can be used indoors. Resistance bands and free-weights are also good ones for indoo...
