抗震救災最終考驗著的，還是國民素質的問題，包括如何尊重他人，如何與他人和諧相處，如何增加憂患意識……我誠懇建議，中國有關部門認真考慮，用力推行“13億中國人提前5分鐘大運動”……

我是日本伊豆人，伊豆半島是自然災害最頻繁的地方之一。對我來說，地震、颱風、洪水、火山等自然災害只是平常事，我把它們視為一輩子要打交道的“朋友”，而不是“敵人”。地震是常態，而不是非常態，在日本，沒有人沒經歷過地震。

Diane Kruger, Olivia Wilde, and Jessica Alba show off their sexy side in Gucci with cocktails and a private dinner at Rue Royale in Paris to celebrate Gucci Creative Director, Frida Giannini, and to celebrate the makeover of the Paris Gucci store.

The British Academy Film Awards ( BAFTAs) blessed us with more red carpet candy, hot on the heels of the Grammy Awards. Unlike the free spirited and sexy looks of the Grammys, the BAFTAs were all about pure glamour. Jessica Alba, in Atelier Versace, Emma Stone, in Lanvin, Amy Adams, in Elie Saab, and Thandie Newton in Monique Lhuillier stepped out in elegant gowns. We really love the grand sweeping train and beautiful print on Thandie's dress, and the pretty cobalt color of Jessica's gown.

Two weeks ago our favorite stars dazzled us on the red carpet at the Golden Globe Awards with their lovely gowns and jewels, and now they're back to show off their looks for the 17th Annual SAG Awards. Here are the looks we loved:

The 2011 Grammy Awards rounded out this year's awards season with everything from shimmery chic dresses to crazy one-of-a-kind ensembles (yes, Lady Gaga we are talking to you). Here are the looks we loved:

It seems like just yesterday that we were admiring Olivia WIlde in Gucci and swooning over Lea Michelle in her tulle Oscar de la Renta gown. That was last year, and this is now. Here are the gowns we loved this year.

A Pop of Color

We enjoyed the red carpet fashions from this year's Golden Globes, SAG Awards, and the Grammys  so much that we were waiting with baited breath to see the red carpet at the 83rd Academy Awards. Unfortunately, it was all for naught. To say the red carpet left us a little underwhelmed would be the best assessment. Still, there were several lovely looks we liked. See them below:

'The Social Network' movie poster

Review: In The Social Network, David Fincher tells the story of the founding of Facebook. And while it might not be totally accurate, it is easily one of the best films of the year.

What's cooler than winning one Academy Award? Winning three Academy Awards — which is exactly what The Social Network did this year. (That does not, however, include Best Picture.)

To no one's surprise, The King's Speech took Best Picture at this year's Academy Awards, beating out The Social Network and a slew of other deserving nominees. But that doesn't mean the dark and twisted dork movie about the (fictional) beginnings of Facebook walked away empty handed.

To start, screenwriter Aaron Sorkin's script won in the Adapted Screenplay category, beating out the Cohen brother's True Grit, Toy Story 3, 127 Hours and Winter's Bones. The Social Network also won in the glamorous Film Editing category, which will surely make editors Angus Wall and Kirk Baxter celebrities at their local bar. And Nine Inch Nails frontman, Trent Reznor, ginned-up the last Academy Award in the Original Score category.

The King's Speech and Inception tied for most awards won last night, having each received a total of four statues.

With the Oscars 2011 awards broadcast only hours away (it's tonight at 8 p.m. Eastern, 5 p.m. Pacific on ABC), we can't wait another minute — we'd like to know who's going to win, and we want to know now.

Here's an exclusive infographic that could give us a hint or two.

However, according to Webtrends, this pre-show buzz might not indicate the real winners. When Webtrends experts were looking at the details of the data, "it was clear that this is the 'people's choice' – a popularity contest and not necessarily the view of the Academy."

How did Webtrends get this data? It scoured blogs, Facebook, Twitter feeds and other microblogs, putting a finger on the pulse of the online world, picking up the pre-buzz and figuring out who might have a good chance of winning.

《北京2008》油畫；畫家：劉溢

這幅叫作《北京2008》的油畫，最近在西方社會以及網路世界引發的口水已經比畫家所用的顏料多出千倍。畫家是劉溢，一個去了加拿大的中國人。有意思的是這張圖名字叫《北京2008》，畫的卻是四個女人打麻將，其實隱藏著很深的含義在裏面。

更生人楊振堂打死台大副教授謝煥儒的事件，引起台灣社會的恐慌；然而，謝煥儒的妻子，張美瑛，卻在第一時間選擇原諒。她的寬容，安撫了所有人的不安。採訪謝煥儒夫人，對我而言也是煎熬。經歷喪夫之慟的她，傷口尚未平復，我去探問她的內心，是不是太殘忍？
