Chris Mann brought tears to his coach Aguilera’s eyes with his performance of Josh Groban’s “You Raise Me Up,” which also featured a gospel choir.
Weigh in on tonight’s two-hour episode below.
?NBCNBC’s The Voice took the gloves off for the first battle round. It heavily featured its bigger voices of the competition which led to several very heated sing offs. The coaches’ goal is to whittle their teams from a talented dozen to its strongest six singers for the live shows.

Merman
The Top 11. I remember this week and it was a scary one. Everyone is on edge because, at this point, you really want to make the tour. You want to know that you’ll have a summer job doing what you love. But all you can do is put that anxiety aside and remember why you’re there in the first place: because you love to sing and you love music.
When you reach this stage of the competition, behind the scenes, they give you a lot of advice about how to work the stage. They tell you to look at the camera and to connect with who’s behind it. That’s really important because the people on the other side are the ones voting. It’s good to show that you can perform in front of an audience, but there are millions of viewers beyond that stage who you also need to impress. That said, it’s really cool to see these contestants improve so much from week to week. You can tell they are working really hard. They are all incredible singers, with very different tones and qualities to their voices so regardless of who ends up going home, they all can be proud knowing they did an amazing job and they can saaaang. Overall, I think tonight was a really good night. Starting with… Casey Abrams ("I Heard It Through the Grapevine," Marvin Gaye): Going first is so hard. He really has to make an impression, which he did. But every time Casey is about to take the stage, I get so excited wondering, “What is he going to do?!” If that’s not a reason to keep voting him through week after week, I don’t know what is. His voice is great, that’s a given, but he’s also a great entertainer. He’s interesting, mysterious and cool. Thia Megia ("Heat Wave," Martha and the Vandellas): I love this girl. She’s so sweet and you wouldn’t think that voice would come out of that body at all. Vocally, she was on it Wednesday night. She sang every note perfectly. Yes, she does have a tendancy to pick “safer” songs. I’d like to see her come out of her shell even more, but I think Thia will make it to tour no problem. Most importantly, she looked like she had a lot more fun on stage than the last two weeks. I’m glad she enjoyed it. It's what Idol is all about, and when you have fun, everyone does! One more thing, I’ll attest to this: it’s hard to walk on that stage in heels -- it’s really uneven and easy to trip on, I’ve done it. As a performer, my advice is to pick shoes you can walk in or you will trip on national TV. Just keep it in mind. Jacob Lusk ("You're All I Need to Get By," Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell): I have to agree with the judges -- that was the best performance by Jacob so far this season. I was actually a tiny bit worried about him coming into this week, and was hoping he would bring it this week and he did. I don’t think there’s any doubt that he will get through. I feel like I’m going to church every time he sings. It’s an experience, not just watching a performance -- he’s got one of those voices that really takes you somewhere. Motown week was a particularly good fit for him, but he has a beautiful voice no matter what the theme. Lauren Alaina (You Keep Me Hangin' On," The Supremes): I think she has a really good voice and I like her vocal style- it’s very appealing- but I wish she would connect through the camera more. She did a good job with the song, but it would have been cool if she changed it up a bit. Still, Lauren did have command of that stage, which can be very intimidating. Stefano Langone ("Hello," Lionel Richie): He has a great voice but I think the other performances were stronger on Motown night. And like Lauren, Stefano needs to connect more with the camera. He did at the end when he mouthed "I love you," but the performance still felt mechanical. I didn’t feel the soul in it. I agree with what Jennifer Lopez said, like he was more concerned with making it through the week as a mechanical singer as opposed to bringing the soul -- which is Motown. Soul, baby! It’s about feeling the song and being in that moment with it. It didn’t have enough of that, which is important in order to really connect. Haley Reinhart ("You've Really Got a Hold on Me," The Miracles): I like her voice personally, and it’s clear that true rhythm and blues music doesn’t intimidate her. Also let me reiterate how hard it is to walk in heels that high. It can affect your performance and she was wobbling quite a bit. Aside from the shoes, the girl can sing. My only advice would be to think about performance beforehand -- you have to be able to move on stage freely or practice the heck out of walking in heels. Scotty McCreery ("For Once in My Life," Stevie Wonder): I like the tone of his voice. He’s a great country singer. Maybe it’s just me, but I felt like he was really uncomfortable on this song. It just wasn’t his best, but perhaps it’s because he’s having a hard time going from country to soul/R&B. If anyone gets it, I do. If you listen to the studio version I did of “What Becomes of the Broken Hearted,” I had a similar issue last season. Pia Toscano ("All in Love Is Fair," Stevie Wonder): She is so good, I don’t even know what else to say. The girl is flawless. She really does bring to mind Celine Dion or a super mega singing star. Pia has such a universal voice that it would do well in every country. And she looks exotic too. You would almost think she was a pageant girl, but she doesn’t come off that way, which is so important if you’re a girl competing on Idol. Paul McDonald ("The Tracks of My Tears," The Miracles): Here’s another one where it doesn’t matter what he sings, that smile kills me. Fortunately, Paul can actually sing! He has a really cool tone and I love his voice. Also, he played guitar tonight, but he’s not using it frivolously for every song, he’s showing that he can do both – that he’s a stage performer and not just a musician. Lastly, he wore a cougar pin, which was just hilarious. He’s definitely the Casey James of season 10. Naima Adedapo ("Dancing in the Street," Martha and the Vandellas): BAM! First of all, her outfit was amazing. I would totally wear that! And I love that she picked a song that was enjoyable for the audience and gave her room to move on stage. Her energy was all there. Naima had this really focused look about her, and even though she was having a good time, you could tell she has been working her ass off every week to better herself. The proof is in the performance. Plus, I love that she broke into dance because American Idol has needed this! But most importantly, you can feel that Naima loves what she does. And she’s nice, too. I met her at the Top 24 party and she’s really cool. James Durbin ("Living for the City," Stevie Wonder): It takes cajones to get that close to the camera, and he was definitely bringing it. He moved more, he had that intensity, he connected with the people on the other side of the camera. He was “crazy” in all the right ways, but even though his was a great performance, I was still thinking about Naima’s turn just prior. So no surprise here, my favorite of the night was Naima. She’s got some skills. As for who might be in danger, I think Haley might be, and Stefano. Even though he has such an incredible voice, the fact that he’s almost been eliminated before makes me worry about him. Plus, I didn’t feel very connected to that performance, just like what Jennifer said. Honestly, all the other performers were so good that it’s hard to choose a third. Then again, this was the week that I went home so I’m probably the last person who should be blogging about Idol, but you’re welcome! ?Kanye West’s latest fashion project, which isn't with his new girlfriend and fellow fashionista Kim Kardashian, is about to hit Nike boutiques June 9.

And Jones has already been cast in a host of new films, so she could be Paster's Carey Mulligan this year: a Brit gamine who looks really chic in clothes and whom every designer wants to dress.
?Getty ImagesFash Track just learned that French designer Vanessa Bruno, who's got a popular shop on Melrose Avenue east of LaCienega, is heading to town from Paris, where she will host a dinner on Nov. 9 in honor of the year anniversary of her Los Angeles boutique's opening. She'll also be doing interviews with media, and of course the requisite meetings with stylists.
Here’s what I thought of this week’s looks:
4. She was Anna Wintour's assistant at Vogue. Young got her start assisting Vogue’s editor-in-chief and went on to work on the fashion magazine's 'People Are Talking About' pages, which spotlight up-and-coming actresses. "I'd meet all the actresses on shoots and they'd ask me to wear the dresses to their movie premieres. I'd just pull shoes or whatever else they needed to go with it," says Young, who dressed Julianna Margulies and Jennifer Connelly early on in her red-carpet career.
Model-turned-actress Kruger, who doesn't work with a stylist, has always been a crowd pleaser on the red carpet. At the AmFAR party at the Hotel du Cap on May 24, her longtime beau Joshua Jackson marveled to The Vampire Diaries star and budding fashionista Nina Dobrev: "Diane only takes 45 minutes to get ready. I don't know how she does it." As Kruger put it in a February 2011 interview with Vogue UK, “I come from fashion, and who knows better what I like than myself?”

?Scott FeinbergCeline Buckens and Jeremy IrvineSteven Spielberg's epic adaptation of the novel and Broadway play War Horse had its world premiere Sunday night at Lincoln Center's Avery Hall, just feet from where the theatrical production is continuing its blockbuster run. Spielberg was on hand before the film to introduce the vast majority of the film's large ensemble, including the film's three big up-and-comers, 21-year-old Englishman Jeremy Irvine, 21-year-old German David Kross and 15-year-old Frenchwoman Celine Buckens, as well as veterans David Thewlis (who also stars in The Lady) and Emily Watson (who was twice nominated for the best actress Oscar in the 1990s). Regretfully, Spielberg noted, the 18 horses that played the title character "Joey" -- the true star of the film -- were unable to attend.

Cerre got a big boost earlier this year from the film The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. They’d become friends with costume designer Trish Summerville and were thrilled when she asked them to design Rooney Mara’s (Lisbeth Salander) leather jacket and her omnipresent backpack. They also did several pieces for Robin Wright’s character.
Blair: It wasn’t terrible. We pitched it to ABC Family in April, I developed the script for a few months and turned it in. Very quickly from the time we turned it in, we went to pilot and after it was picked up, figuring out where we were going with it in the writers’ room took a couple of months. It wasn’t a protracted development process at all.

Amongst all the hullaballoo surrounding September's London Fashion Week - billed as one of the most fabulous ever due to a new location at Somerset House and the return to the capital of blockbuster brands Burberry and Matthew Williamson - one brand, Aquascutum, will no longer be on the glittering schedule.
Normally a Fashion Week fixture, Aquascutum have announced that they won't be showing - rumoured to be because the house has been put up for sale by its parent company, Renown.
The historic brand was once known only for its classic trenchcoats, but since designers Michael Herz and Graeme Fidler joined a few years back, their beautifully modern take on ladylike dressing has drawn a stellar fashion crowd to their shows.
Let's hope it's a bientot, not au revoir...
?has sparked rumours that Olivier Martinez has popped the question by wearing a ring on her wedding finger.
The 45-year-old actress has been seen sporting the beautiful gold ring with a chunky emerald stone on several occasions over the festive period.
If the actor, who's also the face of Yves Saint Laurent L'Homme, has proposed, he must have had a hard task convincing Halle to consider marriage again. In 2009, the star announced that she had been put off the idea forever.
She said: 'I will never, never get married again.
'I've come to a place now where I think two people can share their lives without the ring, without the piece of paper.'The Catwoman actress has been married twice before, to baseball star David Justice from 1992 to 1997, and to musician Eric Benét from 2001 to 2005. Olivier previously dated Kylie Minogue for four years and had a brief fling with .
Halle and Olivier have , when they met filming the unreleased thriller Dark Tide.

?When we heard that had married in a super-secret ceremony over the weekend, we suspected her big day dress would be something special.
And we were right.
Today, it has been revealed the Gossip Girl actress walked down the aisle in a one-of-a-kind Marchesa creation, a couture bridal ball gown featuring a hand-draped silk tulle bodice, scattered with an intricate crystal and rose gold embroidery.
Meanwhile, Blake's bridesmaids wore delicate blush chiffon Marchesa dresses embroidered with crystals and topped off with Louboutin heels.
Not wanting to feel left out, it's thought Blake's hubby-to-be sought help from Burberry pal Chrisopher Bailey for his wedding day attire, donning a sharp suit, with custom leather suspenders.
It's thought Blake and Ryan celebrated their union with close friends and family, reportedly working with wedding planner Tara Guérard on the intimate, personalized party, held in a 'rustic barn'.
'From the heartfelt ceremony to the fun-filled carnival hour and elegant reception, it was a truly enchanting celebration,' American magazine People reports.
The couple tied the knot at Boone Hall Plantation in South Carolina on Saturday. with insiders revealing British songstress Florence Welch, entertained the guests.
Blake and Ryan began dating last year, after meeting on the set of 2012 flick, the Green Lantern.
?TODAY, THE BRITISH FASHION COUNCIL has announced the nominees for the 2007 British Fashion Awards, sponsored by Swarovski.
He also hinted at a possible format change in future seasons: "Maybe if we change the rules next season, maybe do the same thing we do on So You Think You Can Dance ... so that America votes for the bottom three, and then the judges decide who goes home ... I think that will be thought about."
?Amy Adams will star in and produce a feature adaptation of the Steve Martin novel Object of Beauty with Maven Pictures producers Trudie Styler and Celine Rattray.

Not that Didi is looking back too much these days. Currently living in Los Angeles, she's working on her debut album and "staying focused on the mission," which includes performing as much as possible, like her appearance earlier this week at the Cleveland Cavaliers vs Orlando Magic game. Look for Didi at the upcoming Reality Rocks Expo, where she'll join fellow Season 9 alums for a THR-sponsored American Idol panel. For updates, check Didi's Twitter or Tumblr, and read on for Didi's guest blog...
Directors: Daniel Matyas, Brian Broder
As far as when these albums might see a release date? That’s not entirely clear, it might be end of summer, or perhaps the fall, as per the Sony Music timeline of Idol albums past. “Jimmy said, ‘Start working now,’” Jerkins reveals. “One song that Scotty recorded is really close to being a go right now, but basically, I’ve been told to just keep writing.”
?Michael Becker / FOXThursday: What a strange night in the American Idol studio. From the expected appearance of Iggy Pop, to the long-awaited return of Constantine Maroulis, a painful bit with Russell Brand and lighter moments with the staffers at TMZ, all leading up to the shocker of the season: Pia Toscano’s elimination. It was certainly an action-packed episode, but there was plenty the cameras didn’t show. Read on for 25 things you didn’t see -- or hear -- on the elimination night broadcast.
1. Considering what was to come, Corey the audience warm-up guy did a great job keeping the crowd pumped. Still, when he revealed the night’s guest performers, it was a little surprising to hear that the claps for Iggy Pop were only marginally louder than those for Constantine Maroulis. 2. Just before the show is about to start, and the contestants take their positions in opposite corners of the studio, Lauren Alaina and Nigel Lythgoe do a quick waltz and twirl in the aisle. 3. After the rock-themed group number, Pia and Scotty McCreery pat each other on the back for a job well done. 4. While the show takes its first break, James Durbin and Paul McDonald get some meticulous hair primping involving lots of hairspray. 5. Stefano Langone thinks the week’s Ford music video is hilarious, judging by the cackles emanating from the blue velvet couches – or maybe it’s just the janky version of Kiss’ “Love Gun” that’s cracking him up. Jennifer Lopez also has a laugh at co-judge Steven Tyler’s expense, thanks to Rusell Brand. 6. With the first three potential victims in center stage, Lauren nods in agreement when Ryan Seacrest repeats the reference to a “better” previous Idol performance of “You make Me Feel Like a Natural Woman” (ahem, Kelly Clarkson). 7. When Lauren is sent back to safety, she trips on her dress and nearly falls off the couches while climbing up to her position on the top row. Once up there, Casey Abrams kisses her left hand and Lauren does the same to him. 8. During the commercial break, Casey and Lauren sign T-shirts to give away to audience members, while the rest of the Top 9 sign a pillow earmarked for a girl in front. And wouldn’t you know it, Corey gifted several copies of the official American Idol 10th anniversary book, written by yours truly. 9. With one minute left in a commercial break, Constantine takes his place on the Idol stage. Nigel comes over for a quick hello and handshake, clearly impressed by the shrieks of girls in the crowd. 10. Casey Abrams is feeling Constantine’s rendition of “Unchained Melody” and air-drums along. He’s also the first to stand for the season 4 finalist. 11. While Gwen Stefani’s style segment is shown on the giant video screening, Ray Chew and his band members are quickly shooed off the stage. 12. As Paul, Pia and Scotty get their verdict under the red lights, Jacob Lusk breathes deep knowing his turn is next. 13. When Pia’s name is announced, Jennifer looks slightly shaken -- the first of many emotional moments to come on Thursday night. 14. A tween fan of Scotty’s named Hadley comes up to meet her idol and is embarrassed to have spelled his name wrong on the sign she made, which read, “Scottie is a Hottie.” Curiously, on the back she had a second endorsement for Paul. It said: “Paul Will Take Them All.” 15. Lauren leans on Paul as the contestants settle in to watch the TMZ media training segment. 16. Another commercial breaks means more autographs for fans, including a poster which James signs with the Sharpie he (smartly) keeps in his pocket. 17. As the stage is set for Iggy Pop, things get a little chaotic in the studio, so much so that when Corey the warm-up guy introduces Iggy to the crowd (for informational purposes), the punk icon immediately launches into song as if a switch had been turned on. It's, of course, a false start and stage manager Debbie Williams has to cut the music, to everyone’s embarrassment. 18. Little surprise here, Iggy’s use of the S word is edited from the broadcast. No doubt plenty of parents with kids in tow wish they could do the same for the live show. James, Haley and Casey, on the other hand, look stoked. 19. Iggy gives Steven Tyler a hug then poses for a photo with Jennifer and Randy before bidding goodbye. 20. It’s the last dramatic buildup to elimination and Jacob is first to go back to the couches, where he’s embraced by Casey in a massive bear hug. 21. With only Stefano and Pia left standing, it’s safe to say most people expect the former to go, so when Pia’s name is called, the room literally freezes. Jennifer clasps her hands to her face in disbelief, Steven turns around as if to show his solidarity with the boos coming from the crowd and Randy may have thrown out the F word. For his part, Stefano stands with mouth open until he’s reminded to go take his seat. 22. Pia can barely keep it together as her exit video is played. Her mom is also crying hysterically, soon to be joined by Jennifer. Even Marc Anthony looks like he’s taking this particular elimination hard. 23. The band stammers through the opening to “I’ll Stand By You.” Randy, appropriately enough, is first to stand for Pia, still stupefied at the situation and throwing his hands in the air, as if to say, “I give up, America.” 24. As soon as Pia sings her last note, Randy is holding Jennifer’s hand and making a bee-line for the stage. Big hugs and words of encouragement are the order of the day, but in between, Pia can hear demands for a recount, or, as one guys screamed, “I’ll buy your record!” 25. In what was perhaps the sweetest moment of the night, Jennifer Lopez, who had just spent the better part of eight minutes encouraging the just eliminated hopeful to continue honing her talent, wipes the hair out of Pia’s eyes with the gentlest touch.

?is the latest fashion star to join the prestigious board of judges for this year's Graduate Fashion Week River Island Gold Award.
The derivation of the name of this sofa is more than simply a fun controversy as there's a mountain of loose change at the back of the cushion for taking.
British success story Burberry revealed today that it had hit a stumbling block as the luxury brand issued a profits warning.
In a surprise update, the group said it had been hit by a slowdown in spending across the world.
The darling of the fashion scene had once enjoyed sales growth in double digits, but today it reported that like-for-like sales ground to a halt in the 10 weeks to 8 September.
Chief financial officer Stacey Cartwright said: "In the last two weeks there has been a global slowdown. We have seen this across the board in Asia, the US, Europe and the UK."
Despite its issues, the brand is gearing up for where it will present its womenswear spring/summer show on Monday.
Cartwright said: "We have Fashion Week, and the tremendous new flagship on Regent Street that has just opened -- our largest in the world -- while our menswear-only Knightsbridge store will open in a few weeks. Traffic has been down globally but we will not change tack."
Burberry warned that profits for the full year of 2013 would be at the bottom end of market expectations at about pounds sterling 407 million. Retail sales, including from new stores, were up 6 percent.
The slowdown compares with strong first quarter trading where retail sales had grown by 14 percent.
Luca Solca, luxury brands expert at CA Chevreux, blamed Burberry's reliance on very high-end clothing rather than accessories such as handbags. He said: "Apparel -- on which Burberry is more dependent than other mega-brands -- is softer. In difficult times consumers prefer leather goods and hard luxury accessories as they are more visible and work better as status symbols."
Analyst Kate Calvert at Seymour Pierce downgraded the stock to hold and said: "This news will obviously hit sentiment towards Burberry. However, we still consider Burberry a strong long-term growth story."
The company has enjoyed a remarkable decade with its shares rising fivefold. Today the stock slid more than 18 percent, down 249p to 1125.5p, on the news.
However, Mike van Dulken at Accendo Markets said: "This morning's selling may be overdone, providing a short-term trading opportunity."

?Diamond baubles from Cartier glittering in one window, Louis Vuitton's signature leather bags beckoning from across the street and another storefront displaying ' silk scarves.
Within months this is the scene that will greet visitors to Miami's Design District, as the neighborhood begins its dramatic metamorphosis into the new hot spot for luxury shopping.
Cartier and have just opened their doors. Louis Vuitton will do so on Oct. 19. Hermes and Men are under construction. Right behind that will be Pucci. By the time and the holiday shopping season arrive, there should be 8 to 10 luxury brands lining the Design District's Northeast 40th Street corridor.
These openings are a sign of Miami's ascent as a fashion destination.
"For most luxury brands Miami is one of the top three markets in , along with New York and Los Angeles," said Valerie Chapoulaud-Floquet, president and chief executive officer of Louis Vuitton North America. "The Miami market has grown quicker than the rest of North America."
For decades the Bal Harbour Shops offered the only option for luxury in Miami-Dade County. But no longer is having one store in the market enough for these luxury brands.
"Miami has been under retailed for luxury because of the strength of the local market and the strong growth of tourists coming to Miami," said Emmanuel Perrin, president and chief executive officer of Cartier North America. "This market can support several Cartier boutiques. It was just a question of time before the luxury market evolved. Everyone has been waiting for the right project to come along."
Louis Vuitton and Cartier both left Bal Harbour Shops last summer because the mall didn't have the space for them to expand. The retailers were also prohibited from opening a second store within 20 miles unless Bal Harbour's owners got a piece of the new store's revenue.
Now, Louis Vuitton already has opened another store at Mall and Cartier is assessing the market. It's all part of an unfolding game of musical chairs that ends the monopoly of Bal Harbour, which has controlled the luxury retail market since 1965.
By 2014, developer Craig Robins expects to have 40 to 50 luxury brands spread throughout the Design District, creating a new urban destination for fashionistas. Already committed to the area are about 30 tenants, including , Bulgari, Pucci, De Beers, Zegna, Tom Ford, Burberry and Marc by . They will join the district's original fashion tenants Christian Louboutin, and Martin Margiela.
"We're starting to build critical mass," Robins said. "We continue to find that more and more brands are interested in coming. This is an exciting moment for the Design District. People are going to feel the transition and the power of integrating fashion with art, design and food."
Many of the brands are giving up space at Bal Harbour, which the International Council of Shopping Center recently designated the top producing mall in the world. But they say they don't believe the move will have any negative impact on their business.
"We have made a seamless transition," said Vira V. Capeci, president of Celine. "Our clients have followed us to this exciting location."
Right now, Cartier's name sparkling against the backdrop of a bronze storefront may look a little out of place as the area undergoes a transition. But soon Louis Vuitton will make a dramatic statement across the street with a storefront covered by an original work of art from graffiti artist Marquis Lewis, known as RETNA.
There may be growing pains in this gentrifying neighborhood. Will consumers be willing to spend thousands of dollars on jewelry, handbags and clothes just a few blocks away from some of Miami's more impoverished neighborhoods?
At Cartier a security guard stands close by watching over an offering that includes a rare yellow diamond and a $310,000, diamond-encrusted panther pendant and necklace.
"I like the idea of an urban neighborhood where you have crackheads here and Cartier over there," said Denia Roth, a Miami resident who was lunching this week at Michael's Genuine in the Design District. "The diversity brings everyone together."
The retailers have more freedom to design the look of their stores and open bigger showrooms featuring a wider variety of offerings. Cartier's new store is three times larger than what it had at Bal Harbour.
And these stores are only the beginning. Cartier and Louis Vuitton are among several brands opening temporary locations, until they can design and build flagship stores. When these stores open in 2014, they're expected to be among the brands' largest stores in the U.S. outside of .
"We want to take our client experience to the next level and serve our clients in comfort," Perrin said.
Louis Vuitton felt it was important to get into the Design District early.
"We like to be part of building a story, it's part of our pioneering spirit," Chapoulaud-Floquet said. "We think we're going to be able to communicate with a very different clientele that is younger, more trendy and much more open to art and culture."
Although it's been a year since Louis Vuitton and others started leaving Bal Harbour, operating partner Matthew Whitman Lazenby says same store sales continue to grow -- up 16 percent for the first six months of the year compared to last year.
But Lazenby says his family has had a change of heart about allowing tenants to remain at Bal Harbour and still open a second location in Miami-Dade County.
"You can't deny there has been demand expressed by more than one tenant," Lazenby said. "Miami has reached the point in its evolution where more than one store can be sustained. We are adapting to the marketplace and trying to accommodate the needs of our tenants." ___

?designer Monica Pedersen can be seen regularly on programs such as "Bang for Your Buck," where she shows homeowners how to maximize their living space and beautify their homes. A well-seasoned traveler, Pedersen — who lives in the Midwest — sees the potential in taking trips to Wisconsin, as well as heading overseas for a longer vacation.Q: What is your favorite vacation destination? A: , Fla. It's a low-key town right next to and about 45 minutes from . It is my go-to spot when I really want to relax. Working on TV for me means being constantly surrounded by the noise of saws and drills. So a vacation with good weather, the comfort of a private home, a charged golf cart in the driveway and no pressure to look presentable is heaven!Q: Where are your favorite weekend getaways?A: Kohler, Wis., is definitely at the top of my list and is a place my husband and I go at least twice a year. The American Club (destinationkohler.com) is charming, the golf is spectacular and the food is mouthwatering. Another fun place to go in Wisconsin is the Osthoff Lake Resort (osthoff.com).Q: What are your favorite hotels?A: The Pelham Hotel (pelhamhotel.co.uk) in London has beautifully decorated rooms. The Ritz-Carlton (ritzcarlton.com/neworleans) in New Orleans is comfortable and in a great location. The Four Seasons (fourseasons.com/dublin) in Ireland treated my mom, who was very sick while we were there, like a queen. The Soho Grand Hotel (sohogrand.com) in New York for its location. The bar can be pretty fun as well.Q: What are your favorite restaurants?A: Il Cantinori (ilcantinori.com) is my favorite restaurant in New York. I love great Italian food! In Las Vegas, definitely the Wynn Hotel and the Bartolotta Ristorante (wynnlasvegas.com/#dining/bartolotta), which is incredible.Q: When you go away, what are some of your must-have items?A: Comfortable shoes, a variety of outerwear — like scarves, sweaters and my plaid Burberry rain poncho — BlackBerry, cheap pair of backup sunglasses, a good book and a small container of moisturizer.Q: What are your five favorite cities?A: San Francisco is so romantic. It's where my husband proposed to me. New York for its great energy. Napa Valley is sophisticated yet friendly and has great food and wine. I love the details in New Orleans' architecture. Charleston, S.C., is elegant and loaded with Southern charm.Q: What kind of research do you do before you go away on a trip?A: I talk to friends and do a ton of research online. A Web site I am working with, mastercardmarketplace.com, is a great resource for vacations.Q: Where would you like to go that you've never visited before?A: Buenos Aires, . I am heading there soon to shoot an episode of a show I work on called "Bang for Your Buck," and I cannot wait. I am also going to track down the balcony where Eva Peron sang "Don't Cry for Me Argentina" and do my own version. I'm kidding!For more from the reporter, visit .?"I'M NOT saying I'll never be with a prostitute again. But it's hard. Parts of it are soulless and parts of it are nourishing. It's always a roll of the dice."That's our always candid friend, , talking to Playboy magazine for July/August ("Massive Summer Double Issue" it says, directly above cover girl .) Charlie is Charlie. Don't try to make sense of anything he says, because mostly it doesn't. And he knows it. Is it malarkey or the real deal or some wild combination of the two, which seems to be working for him. (His new show, "Anger Management" is doing well.)Yet at least he admits to being unfair to his longtime "" co-star , in the heat of Sheen's firing. "I whaled on him unnecessarily ... he's a beautiful man and a fabulous dude and I miss him. I need to repair that relationship, and I will. I will reach out to do whatever is necessary."As for the now-legendary tale of a suitcase full of cocaine being delivered to his house, in the midst of a wild party, Sheen insists it never happened. Nope. He was watching a Dave Chappell sketch on TV and laughed so hard it gave him a hernia. The hernia did not occur because of too much partying and illegal substances.Look, that's his story and he's sticking to it. And even if he doesn't, it apparently won't make one bit of difference to the fans who support him.WHICH LEADS us to the conundrum of . Tom doesn't smoke (anything) drink, or carouse with hookers. He has never assaulted a woman or been accused of such a thing. He takes care of himself, his popularity has not waned. He is still, according to Forbes magazine, the highest paid actor in the world. And yet, on the front pages of the newspapers, Tom is the devil, scaring poor so much that she has to have a ring of bodyguards surrounding her when she ventures out. What's Tom crime? He's a control freak who belongs to the mysterious and controversial Church of Scientology. OK, maybe that's not pleasant to live with, but the public seems to find his driven personality and religious/spiritual beliefs more unsavory than anything Charlie Sheen does.I guess bad boys do, somehow, get more breaks.As for Miss Holmes, she will be fine. She's made her point, with her bodyguard photos, and the bits of business that have slipped out; her fears for Suri, etc. Nobody is going to be kidnapped or forced to do anything they don't want to do. She's been clever. I suppose she's had to be.Let's not forget, she knew exactly what she was getting into. It's not like Tom became a Scientologist during their marriage. There were plenty of warning signs. But Miss Holmes, apparently, was in love or lust or infatuated with his image and the attention he showered on her. And so it has come to this sorry state of affairs.Tom? Another hit movie and people will probably go back to shrugging off his beliefs. Next time (if there is a next time) Tom should marry a nice, docile Scientology girl with whom he can share his religion.I WAS chatting with a friend last week about how much Internet technology and computers, cellphones, iPads, etc., have taken over every part of our lives. Everything is controlled and connected it seems to one huge grid. What if everything blanked out one day, even for 24 hours? We've all become so dependant.Well, just a day or two later, the had a story about a summer storm in Virginia that took out part of Amazon's "cloud" computing service, in which hundreds of companies store data. It wasn't as bad as it could have been, and Amazon responded pretty well, but this story gave me pause. The Times reported: "The ability to deal with failures has long been a feature of any computing system, but like much else in the cloud, there are no common standards to guide how much protection against disaster is enough."We are so concerned about our borders on the ground. Perhaps we should spend more time with our heads in the clouds. That's where I think the real storm of apocalyptic nightmares stores its "data."WELL, IT's beginning to look like all the fan-whining over is evaporating as "" continues to break records even before this all-important weekend. (But then these days, every weekend is "all important.") The film, which co-stars , has, as of yesterday, made more than $35 million in the United States. In Asia, the take was more than $50 million and climbing.So he was too tall, too gawky, too British, not ? Well, whatever he is or isn't, Mr. Garfield is probably set for two more installments, and set for life financially, as well. That skin-tight Spidey suit is no fun to get into for hours on end. (And it's impossible to wear anything under it.) But in-between films, he'll be able to devote himself to more comfortable Prada, Brooks Brothers, Calvin Klein or Burberry. (He wears Burberry in a deep blue shade on the cover of Teen Vogue. He's paired with Miss Stone, who is supposed to be his real-life girlfriend. Well, at least until the film hits the $500 million mark.)NOW THAT has come out, will on be as much smirky, giggling fun as it has been? Oh, you know -- Anderson's friend, comedienne , would come on and tease him relentlessly, implying, but never saying, what everybody knew.They've got to cook up a new act.(E-mail at .)?Shortly before Daniel Hernandez moved from L.A. to Mexico to write a book about its roiling capital, a friend gave him an order. "I don't want to see you back from Mexico City until it's physically altered you, until you are different," Hernandez was told. The Western Hemisphere's largest metropolitan area, with about 22 million people, has its existential challenges: toxic air, epic traffic jams, "express" kidnappings. But it also can bestow transformative benefits on those willing to dive headfirst into its urban mosh pit. FOR THE RECORD: Daniel Hernandez: An article in the April 28 Calendar section about author-journalist Daniel Hernandez identified Hernandez as a former Los Angeles Times staff writer. Hernandez is a former Los Angeles Times staff writer and a current staff blogger and news assistant in the Times' Mexico City bureau. — During a recent L.A. visit, Hernandez spoke about how his adopted hometown since 2007 has altered him and how he hopes to alter others' perceptions of it with his just-published book, "Down & Delirious in Mexico City: The Aztec Metropolis in the Twenty-First Century" (Scribner). "I think as a journalist Mexico City pushed my barometer of crazy in my life," said Hernandez, 30, a former Los Angeles Times and L.A. Weekly staff writer. "But of course sometimes it's overwhelming and you think you're going to pass out, you need a limonada. You need a run out of town." Hernandez strives to capture that craziness with a combination of memoir, bildungsroman and an impressionistic essay-album of edgy young lives in a city that often feels perched on the precipice of chaos. Some reviewers have invoked Jack Kerouac and Bret Easton Ellis in characterizing Hernandez's first-person immersion in Mexico City's louche atmospherics. Matt Sledge of the Huffington Post wrote that "Hernandez's book tells the stories that we should know, if for no other reason than American culture is increasingly Mexican culture, as his journey makes clear." That journey, of course, is the reverse of one that thousands of Mexicans attempt every year. "The irony is not lost on me," writes Hernandez, who'll be appearing at this weekend's L.A. Times Festival of Books. "While millions of Mexicans are migrating northward, I go south. It is an act of rebellion. My parents, who left Tijuana and settled in San Diego in 1976, shake their heads in disapproval." Growing up as a bilingual, bicultural U.S. citizen, Hernandez often heard horror stories about Mexico City's crime, smog and corruption. But rather than dissuade him, they aroused a desire to get to know this off-limits part of his cultural heritage. What he found, upon arriving, was a cosmopolitan, multilayered city (pre-Columbian, colonial and modern) with a complex web of youth subcultures: emos, "anarco-punks," Condesa scenesters, rich trendy fresas from Polanco. "I just kind of went deeper and deeper," Hernandez said. "I was adopting certain aspects of the subcultures. I realized I had to not judge anyone's music or their style or their fashions but [ask] why had they adopted it, and to pinpoint what I see as the contradictions.", an English professor at Loyola Marymount University, said that countless young Mexican Americans have made the reverse-odyssey to their ancestral homeland over the decades, but few have written about it in long form with Hernandez's insightfulness. "Daniel is saying that the borders have to be crossed on all levels, including the self," said Martínez, author of "The Other Side: Notes From the New L.A., Mexico City, and Beyond." The haunts Hernandez describes in "Down & Delirious" are far from the places most tourists see. He hangs out with graying Marxists at the weekly El Chopo open-air swap meet and parties till sunrise with coked-up chilango teens and twentysomethings in the bohemian Roma neighborhood. He canvases fashion shows, gets swept up in a surging mob at a soccer match and flees an Aztec temazcal (sweat lodge), "gasping for oxygen" and deeply skeptical of whether ancient rituals can act as curatives for the ills of modern life. In surreal detail, he recounts pilgrimages to the worship halls of Mexico City's dueling spiritual icons: the beloved Virgin of Guadalupe, the country's church-sanctioned protector since she allegedly appeared to the peasant Juan Diego in 1531, and the fearsome, skeletal Santa Muerte, "Saint Death," the unofficial patron of prostitutes, crime lords and cab drivers working the graveyard shift. Some episodes in "Down & Delirious" will ring familiar to readers of Hernandez's blog, , which has a following on both sides of the border, particularly among readers 30 and younger. (Disclosure: Hernandez and I have been casual acquaintances for many years.) Just out of UC Berkeley, where he studied English literature, Hernandez first visited Mexico City in 2002 and stayed 10 weeks with relatives, an experience that "recalibrated" his life. Then in 2006, he was assigned by the L.A. Weekly to write a piece about Mexico's upcoming presidential election, which led to the contract for "Down & Delirious." Laurie Ochoa, the former L.A. Weekly editor who , said that while "Down & Delirious" touches on Mexican politics and hot-button issues like immigration, its greater achievement is to personalize the phenomenon of second- and third-generation Mexican Americans reconnecting with their cultural roots. "Through his individual story, he's telling the stories of a lot of people," Ochoa said. Although his book doesn't dwell on it, Hernandez writes with an awareness of the drug-war mayhem that has swept Mexico since late 2006 and of the toll that the country's economic and social afflictions have taken on its youth. One section deals with the curious persecution of Mexico's ambisexual "emo" youth, whose ambiguous identity aroused the wrath of other urban tribes. Perhaps the book's most affecting chapter, "A Feathered Serpent in Burberry Shades," recounts Hernandez's adventures with his late friend, the designer and "semi-androgynous party boy" Quetzalcoatl Rangel Sanchez. "You're dealing with real histories here and real traumas and real violence and real loss," Hernandez said. So how has his Mexico City sojourn physically changed him? Hernandez pointed to a pair of tattoos that he's acquired since living in Mexico: "La Libertad" (Spanish for "liberty") and another depicting a symbol for "speak," derived from a . "I'm a nerd, I'm a bookish Berkeley nerd," he said, "but living here has just flipped everything upside down for me." For now, Hernandez's plan is to keep getting flipped in Mexico City and maybe inspire other young searchers — his target audience, he hopes — to do the same. "I think it would make me most happy if it were a younger reader like that, a young reader interested in learning something about Mexico."?Dear Answer Angel: I'm a little embarrassed to ask this question. I've been using the same deodorant since I was in high school, and it has always "done the job." Now, many decades later, it isn't working. I was in a crowd the other day, and I started thinking someone near me had not taken a shower after a workout or something. And then I realized that I was the guilty party. The product I'm talking about is the "regular" red label Ban roll-on. When that changed to a green container, I stuck with the roll-on "regular" with a red label. But lately, I've been having not-so-good results. Did I change, or did the deodorant?— Not So Fresh AnymoreDear Not So Fresh: Your favorite Ban roll-on has changed. I asked the company and learned that it did make "relatively minor" changes in the formula. But that might not be the cause of your problem. It could be you. Ban research leader Erica Palmer says, "We are learning that as people age, they may need to switch products to compensate for physical changes in body chemistry." Palmer suggests you switch from roll-on to solid. Roll-on is gentler but "not as effective in controlling odor and wetness" as the solid, she says.You didn't ask, but others have inquired how to remove the inevitable white deodorant streaks on your sweaters and shirts that you notice just as you're racing out the door. Easy and cheap: Rub the area with dry pantyhose (or knee-highs) or a dry Mr. Clean Eraser household cleaning pad.Dear Angel: I have been struggling for years on my quest for a raincoat that's stylish and has a hood. All the stylish raincoats/trench coats I find lack a hood. I carry an umbrella with me on rainy days, but I would still like a hood to protect me from the humidity, not just the water. Are there any affordable waterproof, stylish raincoats/trench coats out there with a hood, or am I asking for too much?— Mary B.Dear Mary: In fashion (as in life), you can never ask for too much! The perfect coat — with a hood — is out there. But it will require some searching. I like to touch, feel and try on, so online shopping isn't my favorite. But it's the way to go when you're looking for something really specific, such as your perfect coat. An online search for "hooded trench coat" (or leopard rain boot or whatever esoterica is on your wish list) will turn up a ton of options. In your case, I found a high-end lemon sorbet-colored taffeta Burberry for (gulp) $1,295 () and a cute Marc New York in black jersey knit with a hidden hood, $255 at ). Also: Gallery makes cute, colorful coats with detachable hoods, including one in bright spring green for $118 at . Happy hunting.Dear Answer Angel: Can you settle this dispute with my wife? We were in a restaurant, and the people at the next table were having a lively discussion about a movie we were about to see. We actually had just purchased the tickets — for a ridiculous $11 apiece, I might add. I asked them in a pleasant way if they'd change the subject because we were about to see the film and wanted to be surprised. They seemed OK with that. But my wife wasn't. She was mortified and says I was out of line. I say I was just protecting my investment.— Spoiler AlertDear S.A.: I'm on your side. As long as you were nice about it, you're fine. And, because your dining neighbors did stop talking about the movie, they, too, must have been OK with your request. Whether the issue is free upgrades on your cell-phone contract, honoring an expired discount coupon or a change of topic at the adjacent table, I say it never hurts to ask — politely.Dear Answer Angel: I found the perfect jacket at a consignment store. The sleeves had been altered by the previous owner and it fit me perfectly. It's clear that whoever consigned it is exactly my size. Is it possible to find more clothes from whoever my body double is? How?— No more tailoring billsDear No More: Yes! Many consignment stores — such as the national chain Second Time Around () — have computer software that can track all the clothes in the store from that same seller. Even without a computer program, managers of consignment stores often know their sellers so well that if you ask (preferably keep tags and receipts with identifying numbers), they can locate all the clothes in their shop from that person.Woof.

"He's a little old man, and he loves dressing up," says Sakellaris, co-owner of the store at 840 Aliceanna St., the shop where Sparky, a 13-year-old Brussels Griffon, can be found most days."Sparky has worn clothes ever since he was a baby; now he has two coats and about a dozen sweaters. Mostly, we dress him because he's short-haired and he gets really cold when he goes outside. If it's raining, he doesn't like to go out at all, but he minds it less if he's wearing a raincoat."Despite the recession, Baltimore dog owners have been snatching up sweaters, coats, raingear and, yes, even booties this winter to help keep Fifi and Fido toasty and dry."You're talking about a passionate product for a passionate consumer, and passion overrides any economic downturn," says Marshal Cohen, chief retail analyst at the NPD Group, the New York-based market research organization."Even during the recession, where the consumer was cutting back, certain items became identified as necessary luxuries. Pet owners wanted to insulate their and cats against the recession in the same way that they wanted to isolate and protect their children."For instance, Beth Crisman, who lives in Northwest Baltimore, can't afford designer duds for herself or her dog on what she earns as a practicing artist and part-time professor. (She teaches photography and art history at several area community colleges.)But Crisman would no more go without sweaters in winter for Cody, her 3-year-old Boston terrier, than she would go without a coat for herself."Bostons don't do well with either extreme temperatures of hot or cold," she says, adding that she orders Cody's clothes either through online sites or catalogues, spending about $10 on average for a sweater."But he looks really cute, and he loves the attention he gets when we go for a walk. What dog wouldn't?"Virginia Byrnes, co-owner of Dogma in Canton estimates that about 30 percent of her canine customers come into her shop wearing attire of some sort. Across town, Chris , co-owner of Pretentious Pooch in , estimates that canine apparel makes up between one-fifth and one-quarter of his winter sales.Cohen said that boutique-style stores peaked in popularity about five years ago — or about the same time that such top labels as , and Coach decided to expand into the pet market.Once the recession hit, many boutiques had to branch out into other dog and cat products, such as food and bowls, to remain in the black.Baltimore is a city that places a high value on being down to earth, Woodside said, so frou-frou products that sell strongly in such cities as New York, Los Angeles or even Washington do less well here."People in Baltimore are definitely more practical," he says. "It became clear a year or so ago that we were either going to have to morph into selling other products or close the front door."Still, there's practical, and then there's "practical." A sweater or coat may be a necessity for short-haired dogs such as chihauhaus, terriers or even Dobermans who walk outside when temperatures are in single digits.And if that coat happens to be quilted, beige and made by Gucci (retail value, $280) or a striped Coach cashmere sweater ($148 and up), that doesn't make it less functional.For instance, Cathy Brennan, an attorney who lives in Rodgers Forge in , enjoys dressing Dante, the surviving member of a pair of Boston terriers, in sweaters, a cape and bow ties.?After their two sons headed off to college, Bill and Carolyn Walter thought the time might be right to downsize. Coming from a large, single-family home in , they wanted something smaller with a strong community association to handle outdoor maintenance, and also in the same area of northern Baltimore County.
The house-hunting ended when the two came across a lovely villa for sale in the nearby community of Pebble Creek. Carolyn Walter knew instantly she wanted to move into the traditional home that connected to four others on the street, resembling a row of cottages with deeply pitched roofs and front dormers. The interior design, with meticulous attention paid to details such as two wood-burning fireplaces, wide molding and oak flooring, appealed to her taste for traditional furnishings.
In spite of herself, Carolyn Walter gushed over the great find.
"I told her, 'Don't say you love it so much when I'm trying to negotiate price,'" Bill Walter said, decidedly, but with a smile that indicated the outcome was inevitable.
The Walters, who would be the second owners of the house, paid $410,000 for a two-level, plus finished lower level, 4,000-square-foot home on approximately one-tenth of an acre.
While the home, built in 1994, was in very good condition, the Walters have made several improvements and upgrades since they moved in in 1998. During the past twelve years, the couple added new kitchen appliances, cabinets and granite countertops, hardwood flooring on the home's second level, and a deck. They had the master bathroom renovated.
The couple also added a decorator wall from the entrance to the kitchen. In keeping with the traditional aspects of the interior architecture, Carolyn Walter called upon a construction design company noted for its exquisite restoration, renovation and millwork, SouthFen Inc. to create the paneled wall over the original plain one. The raised panels, Colonial in style, are painted the same shade of eggshell found in the living and dining rooms, with the trim painted a deep shade of wheat. The sight of this angled wall, embellished with three brass sconces, upon entering the hall sets the formal tone for the rest of the home.
"We live in the kitchen and the family room that has two doors out to the deck," said Carolyn Walter.
These rooms, with walls painted a deep shade of Duron's Burberry Red, contrast in a casually elegant style with her vast collection of Delft pottery and porcelain prominently displayed in every room, on every shelf and wall and in every cabinet. From platters to large bowls, houses, urns, plates and even an umbrella stand, the delicately painted blue and white pieces perfectly accent every room's decor and wall color.
The formal elegance of the dining room is enhanced by a crystal chandelier that drops from the 23-foot ceiling. A mahogany suite of Chippendale-style furniture features a double pedestal table that will seat 12 and a china closet filled with a Royal Copenhagen service for eight.
The living room boasts one of the home's two wood-burning fireplaces, while cherry furniture and an entire wall of framed prints depicting various scenes of horse and hound hunts give the room a decidedly English country feel. The look is carried out in the second-floor hallway, where several services of silver sit atop mahogany side tables.
The second-floor bedrooms, especially the master, which is painted soft yellow, have a distinct, manor style achieved with artwork, artfully placed armchairs and benches, needlepoint pillows and rich fabrics on furniture and beds.
The finished lower level follows the same circular flow as the two above it. A library filled with hundreds of books segues to a sitting area before moving to a craft studio and finally, a separate office for Bill Walter.
The couple shares a laugh over the mention of their new home being almost as large as the one they left.
"Yes, but we're close to everything, and the community has strict covenants when it comes to exterior work," Carolyn Walter said.
"And it's maintenance-free. We lock the door and go!" her husband added.

Making the dream
Dream location: Bill and Carolyn Walter's villa home is located in Pebble Creek, a neighborhood development in Timonium. Though nestled in a wooden area, they are close to the amenities on the York Road corridor.
Dream design: The homes are painted a light khaki and cream color with wooden trim at windows and doors that feature arched transoms. Chunky stone chimneys, stone half-walls, double-car garages and sloping roofs with prominent gables contribute to the traditional design of each house in the row.
Dream element: A large, angular entrance hall presents onto a winding oak staircase that sweeps to the open hallway of the second level. The circular flow of the first floor leads to a rear kitchen and breakfast room. The layout is, Carolyn Walter says, "great for parties. Everyone is comfortable, [and] every room is used."

Riskier stocks -- including most of the mining sector -- dived to the bottom of the index with Vedanta Resources and Anglo American falling hard.
Revelations of a mining scam in India pushed Goa to place a temporary ban on mining. The state is the country's second-biggest iron ore producer and the news has hit Vedanta Resources.
Vedanta's Indian arm Sesa Goa is currently merging with Sterlite Industries and both have been hit by the ban. Vedanta lost 45p to 957.75p but experts expect the ban to not impact the business in the long term.
Anglo American, down 83.5p to 1918.25p, which is facing legal action in the High Court from African gold miners who claim that health and safety conditions have caused their lung diseases, received a downgrade today. It denies liability. Analysts at cut its price target to 1750p from 1900p.
A cautious feeling swept the City ahead of a German court's ruling on its participation in the planned European bailout.
Defensive stocks were in favour with British American Tobacco leading the FTSE 100, up 47.5p to 3171.5p.

He doesn't want to put 'Uggie' through anymore long hours. Von Muller says, "He's getting tired." But does this mean the adorable Uggie won't turn up at the ? Say it isn't so.THEY SAY only seven people turned up for actor Nicol Williamson's burial the other day. The bad boy of English theater had not worked since 1997 and had turned down some great offers in his time.His obit describes him as a hell-raiser; one of the patron saints of bad behavior, "almost deliberately badly behaved," prone to walking offstage in mid-performance, throwing things, an exhibitionist and the last of a breed.One of Williamson's obits by Roger Lewis refers to the actor as being possibly influenced by and method acting. This led to the story of and in "Marathon Man." To look sweaty, Hoffman ran around a football field. He was panting when Oliver remarked, "Why don't you try acting, dear boy?

He didn't need a lot of razzmatazz to showcase his pure voice and amazing dance technique, a technique that even the great would come to admire.But as the years rolled on, Michael ramped up the sets, the style and the strangeness. Sometimes he appeared to get lost under the "stuff," when all he really needed was to sing and dance, period. But when people pay hundreds of dollars for concert tickets, they want spectacle as well as talent. Perhaps more of the former than the latter.And spectacle is certainly the attraction of tribute show, titled -- with typical understatement -- "Immortal." The show features all the usual Cirque bells and whistles: acrobatics, LED screens, huge balloons, animatronic recreations of Michael, and, but of course, his real image and voice, as compelling as ever.Apparently, although the show was a huge hit in Montreal and Las Vegas, raking in more than $100 million, some consider it tasteless, overblown, exploitive, especially as the Jackson family is involved. Well, they have to be involved. The Jacksons, in tandem with , control Michael's music and likeness. While Michael was alive, the Jackson family didn't seem to be thriving, nor did their golden goose.But now Michael is the most successful dead celebrity ever. His estate has garnered a whopping $450 million since the pop icon's tragic death almost three years ago. Michael, who loved to break records and boast of his accomplishments, would be so happy to know he's still the King of Pop, so crowned by his friend . Michael's children, Prince, Paris and will never know a day of financial need. Nor will anybody else in the family."Immortal" has plans to move on to London and other spots in Europe. As one newspaper review stated, "It's like a Michael Jackson tour, without Michael." But that seems to be good enough for Michael's fans.Oh, and these fans don't care if some condemn the show as "tacky, sentimental and visually overloaded."It's as close to the old Michael Jackson experience as those who adored him can get.

No matter how you pack, your clothes are destined for Wrinkleville. And that expensive bottle of perfume in your checked bag is likely to arrive broken or not at all.But fret not. Designers and cosmetic companies have taken note, launching mini-sized, wrinkle-free or collapsible products that help travelers stay fashionable while jet-setting. "So many designers and companies are conscious of travel-friendly fabrics and products," said Stephanie Bradshaw, a stylist based in Cockeysville. "And cosmetics have certainly come a long way — particularly in the past few years."Wrinkle-free clothing has been downright hideous in the past. Not anymore. Designers such as Jude Connally and Desiqual offer colorful, trendy clothes that will hold up to the bumps of travel. And you don't have to go far to find them — local boutiques have stocked up with plenty of the fashionable threads.At Trillium, a high-end boutique in Green Spring Station, some of the best-selling items are travel-friendly, said owner Sima Blue."Most of my customers travel a lot," Blue said. "They go back and forth to their second homes. They travel abroad. They want to look good when they travel."Travel-friendly selections at Trillium include wrinkle-free raincoats by Mycra Pac, cashmere ruanas by Minnie Rose and wash-and-go T-shirts by Michael Stars."These clothes are great because they are great on the plane," Blue said. "They are easy to pack. And they don't take up a lot of room."Frances Burress, owner of the boutique Caviar and Cobwebs, carries Desiqual, a popular line of clothing based in Spain that happens to be wrinkle-free."The colors are bold and beautiful," Burress said. "They are washable, and they hold up very well."She said the line has a distinct European feel that allows wearers to stand out in a crowd."They are contemporary, and they fit people," said Burress, who added that the designer has lines for men, women and children. "Their styles are for folks from 8 to 80."Octavia II, a boutique in Cross Keys, carries Jude Connally, an American line that touts its wash-and-wear clothing."You can just throw them in your bag and go," said owner Betsy Wendell, who was wearing one of the designer's dresses. "They don't wrinkle. I've slept in this dress. It looked just the same when I got out of bed. They are perfect for travel."In the past, customers would scoff at the thought of wearing wrinkle-free clothing, Wendell said. Those times have changed."The clothes have gotten much better," she said. "These clothes work into everyone's busy lifestyle."Cosmetics companies have also made changes to their products, mostly as a result of the attacks on Sept. 11, 2001. Since the Transportation Security Administration limits the amount of liquid passengers can take in their carry-on luggage, a number of companies — including cosmetics giant MAC — have launched travel-size products that meet airline regulations.Travalo is a fairly new product that allows travelers to transport smaller amounts of perfume on airplanes. Other companies are offering new features aimed at protecting a product's pricey contents. Burberry, the luxury clothing line that also has a line of cosmetics, now offers lipstick packaged in magnetized gunmetal tubes to prevent spillage during travel.Stylist Bradshaw likes the new offerings for cosmetics and clothing. She said the latest advances have left travelers with no excuses to look sloppy when they are on vacation."It's just as easy to put on a pretty dress as it is to put on your juicy sweat suits," said Bradshaw, who added that the days of T-shirts, sneakers and khaki shorts are over. "Why not chose to be pretty? Pretty is fun. It also communicates to the rest of the world how you feel about yourself."Miles of styleCockeysville stylist Stephanie Bradshaw suggests packing these fashionable and practical items for a trip:Scarf: "I always carry a scarf with me when I travel," Bradshaw says. "Sometime you get cold on the plane." When you arrive at your destination, scarves are perfect to dress up an outfit. "You can put a scarf on any outfit and look chic in two seconds," she adds.Sensible shoes: Pack the more flexible shoes, and wear the bigger shoes on the plane, Bradshaw says. She also suggests that you put any sparkly shoes in a plastic bag so that the glitter doesn't get on your clothing.Fashionable bag with a comfortable handle: "I would like to take something a little more chic," Bradshaw says. Pick a bag with a supple, durable leather handle, according to Bradshaw. "It won't dig into your skin," she says.A good cosmetics bag: 's eco-friendly cosmetics bag works because it's a good size for fitting everything for a weekend getaway, says Bradshaw. "It's not too big and not too small. The fact that it is fabric means that it can squish down in your travel bag."?With the holiday shopping season already under way, many of the nation's leading retailers say they plan to avoid the kind of deep, across-the-board discounts that gave last year's season an air of desperation -- and crimped profits.Instead, many are using more subtle, under-the-radar promotions to lure shoppers this year. Several big chains, including and Limited Brands Inc.'s Express division, are cutting back on the number of blockbuster discount events that they've relied on in past years to pack their stores.Even , whose buy-one-get-one-free deal helped spark a frenzy of similar activity among rivals last year, insists it's changing course."We think that particular promotion for our store has gotten a bit stale," said , a spokesman for the New York-based chain.Wall Street likes the new discipline."The trend has been to rein in harmful promotions," said Todd Slater, an analyst with Lazard in New York. This year, he said, "retailers may be prepared to leave some pockets of business on the table, which is healthy."Better outlookRetailers can't afford to reprise last year's disappointing holiday season, when sales of apparel, toys, electronics and other gifts rose by a modest 2.2 percent, according to the National Retail Federation in Washington. Early warning signals abounded last year: Sales actually slowed heading into the holiday season, prompting many merchants to rev up the promotional machine in earnest.John Morris, an analyst at Harris Nesbitt Gerard who has been tallying holiday discounts for several years, said the number and severity of markdowns increased 10 percent in 2002, on top of a 15 percent rise in 2001.This year, thanks in part to a healthier economy, retail sales are accelerating as the holidays near. And despite the better outlook, stores generally have refused to stock up on extra inventory, which means they have the luxury of being more measured in their discounting strategies."It is going to be a less-promotional holiday selling season," Morris said.Still, even while they are avoiding undignified 50 percent-off signs, some retailers are encouraging their best customers to come in early with special, targeted discounts."I think people are tired of the all-day sale," said JoAnn Brosi, general manager for the Galleria, a mall in California. "When they're on a mailing list and they're asked to be part of a small promotion, it makes them feel special."Invitation-only salesSharon Chortek, a Dallas-based TV producer, has a stack of special pre-holiday promotions she's received in the mail over the past three weeks. Each come-on has a little different twist.One, from -- a top-tier Texas mall anchored by Saks Fifth Avenue, Nordstrom and -- offers a $25 to $50 gift check to any number of Galleria specialty stores, including , Coach and Cartier.To qualify, shoppers need to spend $200 at the mall. The promotion, which began Nov. 7, runs until supplies last -- a "big incentive to get there early," Chortek said.Last week, Chortek was invited to the special three-hour sale at called Private Night, offering 25 percent to 40 percent off on such merchandise and products as Burberry, which rarely go on sale.?Things just keep getting sexier along Stevens Creek Boulevard.
To the north, diamonds and pearls shimmer at the newly expanded Tiffany & Co. inside a Westfield Valley Fair mall that's gone gaga for glitz.
To the south, 10-year-old Santana Row is bursting with new retail, residential and office projects. There's a new lingerie line at the beefed-up H&M opening this week, a hipper-than-thou Italian coffee joint coming soon, and a high-end rental complex called Misora -- which, for those of you not fluent in Japanese, means "beautiful sky."
With the dawning of Valley Fair's and Santana Row's "resort-style" rental apartments packed with status-hungry scenesters, the Stevens Creek corridor near Interstate 880 may well start calling itself the South Bay's Champs-Elysees. And its denizens and visitors are both fueling and feasting upon the region's ever brightening business climate.
"With the Silicon Valley economy coming around, especially in tech, you've now got 20-year-old entrepreneurs in flip-flops buying Cartier watches," said Valley Fair senior general manager Gavin Farnam, standing near the high-end jeweler, just one in a cavalcade of top-drawer stores settling into the mall's luxury lane. "And it's not just luxury items, but everything. We're at our highest sales level now in the history of the mall."
This bifurcated boom could cause whiplash for passing motorists. With dozens of projects under way at both
sites, a tale of two malls is unfolding to the sound of jackhammers and ringing cash registers.
"This retail expansion is another indicator of the jobs and wage growth helping Silicon Valley lead the rest of the nation out of the recession," said Steve Levy with the Center for Continuing Study of the California Economy in Palo Alto. "And for companies like Apple (AAPL) and (GOOG), employees are seeing their stock worth more, too, so it's kind of a perfect storm, at least within the tech world. People in the valley have more to spend, and that's spilling over into retail."
Santana Row seems to be firing on all pistons as it celebrates its 10-year anniversary next month. Despite initial criticism that the upscale retail-residential complex would suck the life out of downtown San Jose, and naysayers who questioned whether the European-style village concept would ever work, the project now claims design awards and traffic numbers that would make
any shopping mall green with envy.
"It took people a while to sort of get this place," said Collette Navarrette, spokeswoman for the mall's publicly traded owner, . "It was a whole new concept when it opened in 2002 with just 35 tenants and no office space. Ten years later, we have 100 merchants, 403 rental homes and 219 condos, as well as 115,000 square feet of office space."
As Santana Row's residential occupancy rates push 100 percent, Silicon Valley's boom is reflected in real time inside the erstwhile Borders on the faux village's faux main street. This week, the popular Swedish clothing retailer H&M formally moves a few hundred feet down the Row into the closed book store, tripling in size to 27,000 square feet and adding new lingerie, maternity and children's sections.
Lifestyle is the Row's middle name. And with a boutique hotel, spas, wine bars and enough luxury retail to satisfy the most discerning shopaholic, its owners are planning yet another phase of the expansion: They're planning to build a 220,000-square-foot office tower, then fill it with employees who can tap into the smorgasbord that surrounds them. Federal Realty's West Coast president, Jeff Berkes, said the tower is part of the economic evolution under way in the region.
"San Francisco and Silicon Valley are leading the United States through its economic recovery," Berkes said. "We started to see that first in 2009 in the performance of the Hotel Valencia and our restaurants, followed by the occupancy levels and rents we've been able to get for our apartments. Then we saw it in retail. And these are all signs of the confidence people have in the local economy."
While it pretties itself up with new paint, a beefed-up valet station, and even plusher seating in its common areas, Valley Fair is welcoming a roster of luxury stores to a mall that has seen double-digit sales growth every month this year. Along with Cartier, a new Burberry, TAG Heuer and Wolford are joining the family.
With business booming on both sides of the boulevard, the two malls say the synergy between them serves both well.
"Anytime you have retail nearby, it's competition," Farnam said. "But when you have that lifestyle component like you've got at Santana Row, with residential and offices, that brings more people to the area and helps all of us."

A Tale of Two Malls
Westfield Valley Fair
?Spring merchandise has officially hit the stores, and one trend should be immediately noticeable: bright colors. They were everywhere on the spring-summer 2011 runways, including at the show, where candy colors managed to look minimal when shown with crisp white shirts or layered with sleek black coats, and at and Burberry, where various tones of shocking aqua and cobalt were paired for a cool (and somehow punchy) look. Color blocking, as seen on the runway, is another major trend.Other designer and contemporary brands explored the color wheel as well. "For spring we bought a lot of color, from acid pinks to orange-red to cobalt blue to tangerine," says Jeannie Lee, owner of 3rd Street's Satine Boutique, which stocks lines from designers including , , and . Retailer Hillary Rush, who owns her eponymous boutique, also on 3rd Street, has already starting seeing the color craze take effect with customers. " The oversized raglan shirt from Monrow has totally sold out in the hibiscus color," a coral-orange Rush says. "When a bright color like that sells out before the black or white, it's always a statement that people are wearing color that season."On the other end of the spectrum, shoppers are likely to encounter lots of white. The natural, yet luxe look of an all-white ensemble (which also works in winter, but is a lot more practical in the warmer months) looked fresh in the runway collections of , and . is also turning out a number of white items, from easy button-downs to wide leg trousers, all in shades of white and off-white and in stores this summer. And there's no shortage of white jeans, which are showing up in the spring and summer lines of J Brand, MIH and 7 for All Mankind.Shoppers may also notice a '60s and '70s aesthetic dictating the shape of denim this season."Denim flares are really hot," says Caprice C. Willard, vice president-regional planning manager for Macys, where brands such as and Levi's have incorporated the style. Flared and wide-leg jeans are also big sellers on the boutique level; Satine's Lee says wide-leg jeans have been flying off the shelves.On spring-summer 2011 runways such as 's, models wore wide-leg jeans with tucked-in white button-downs and chic wedge sandals. On the street we're bound to see a more relaxed version of the look, with women wearing bell bottom-style jeans with T-shirts and sandals or perhaps flared jeans with a tucked-in tank top and a blazer for eThe record books show their royal wedding at Buckingham Palace was the most-watched event in world history. And who can forget Kate's amazing Alexander McQueen gown, which catapulted Alexander McQueen designer Sarah Burton to the top ranks of fashion designers, and made Kate a new fashion icon–along with her sister, Pippa Middleton?

Rob Marshall, who recently directed Depp in Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, is directing what Atwood calls "a speeded up, hip '30s that's going to be really fun." The Thin Man's mustachioed detective is yet another role that seems tailor made for Depp's increasingly comedic sensibilites. But the original 1934 film was no lightweight: It was nominated for four Academy Awards: Best Actor in a Lead Role, Best Director, Best Picture and Best Writing, Adaptation.
