U.S. Edition
So much for that lithe "Black Swan" ballerina body - Natalie Portman is pregnant!
A rep for the 29-year-old Golden Globe nominee confirms to CNN that Portman and choreographer Benjamin Millepied are engaged and expecting their first child together.
French-born dancer Millepied, 33, has performed with the New York City Ballet and was the choreographer for Portman's critically acclaimed thriller "Black Swan." The couple were first romantically linked last New Year's Eve, when they attended a party together in New York City.
Portman has not yet revealed the baby's due date or when the wedding will take place. Stay tuned!
Congratulations, Ms. Portman and Mr. Millepied!. I wish you nothing but the best, I hope it lasts long. You mothers must be so happy they're going to be grandparents!
Hmmm, she's known this guy how long?
Seems kind of rushed if you ask me.
I give it a year, two tops.
and another hypocrite/idiot........................
so far the only people that have posted a comment here that seem to have any intelligence or decency are the ones that have given congradulations to the couple. also the ones that made the star wars jokes, that stuff is just plain funny. poor darth.
And who would marry a guy named millipede?
Pregnant and engaged. In that order. Love those old-fashioned romances.
this marriage is going to last. she's a famous actress/millionaire and he's a dancer that worked with her. yeah, good luck with that.
*heavy sigh* I remember the days when you got married FIRST then had the babies. What a sad commentary on our society. This marriage doesn't have a snowballs chance in you-know-where. What a shame.
Mom of 4 – you been living under a rock or your whole life – or just making judgmental remarks? Tthis is nothing new & definitely not just in Hollywood. Besides, I think anyone who has more than 2 children should be ashamed. How bout them apples?
We dont have to agree with her decisions, but its not right to bash her for it. ((Not saying anyone is...im just sayin))
@Annoyed,agree. i read the bible, and im waiting to have children after im married ((and that which leads up to children)) i know society has taken that belief and twisted and pulled and manipulated it. of course, things like this cant really be changed once theyve happened. abortion is an option, but i dont really agree with that either. (please dont trash me because of my opinion). what ever natalie does is her choice. and we should back her up.
Hahaha @Anakin that made me laugh...ive been watching starwars lately.
Just help me save Padmé's life. I can't live without her.
She's not pregnant until they release images from the ultrasound. Sorry, but I'm not just going to believe everything that's printed. Proof is in images of the womb. fwithpeople "dot" com
Hello, Natalie Portman, I like you!
I hate you
It's amusing to me how all opinions are relevant except ones from religious people. I'm not talking about religious nut jobs but people who read from and respect the teachings of the Bible. I don't agree people should have children out of wedlock. I think if more women took the time to establish a real relationship with a man, most marriages wouldn't end in divorce. I wish this couple the best but that does not mean I have to agree with their decisions. In the long run, it isn't me they have to answer to.
So it's the responsibility of a woman to establish a strong relationship? What is the man supposed to be doing? If the marriage fails, it's the woman's fault?
Marriage can be legal and/or spiritual. What does a piece of legal paper have to do with raising a baby? Also what of the couple isn't spiritually inclined? What would be the point of the marriage contract in either case?
Really it's none of your business how they dedicate themselves to each other and their baby. They probably announced the pregnancy to forego any tabloid speculation of the soon to be seen baby bump which is probably more annoying then this speculation, but not by much.
I guess that means my date with Natalie next week is cancelled....
Her monotone acting is terrible. Worst actress, 2nd only to Sandra Bullock. Lucas was on crack to give her the role in Star Wars. She has one tone, and one voice for acting. BAD.
Mazal Tov to a stunning young actress with an amazing talent. Wishing her a happy life with her chosen one.
Wow, Anakin's "force" was strong in her, if you know what I'm sayin'...
I like her. Her life, her body, her choice.
Natalie...please...PLEASE..I KNOW I said I'd pull out. I'm sorry, ok?Just let me have a role in our baby's life.
Damantion!...I wanted to marry her first!
Damnation!...I wanted to marry her first!
One, she can afford her kid, more than most people in this country can do. Two, no one here knows if they planned the baby or not or if they were engaged prior to the pregnancy. All the article says is they were announced at the same time. Three, it is QUITE easy for birth control to fail. Those of you pretending you're so smart by criticizing her for being pregnant obviously know nothing about that or about whether her dancing changed her cycles (as often does for ballet dancers).
Gods, you're all such jealous nitwits on here...
Millepied? If I remember my high-school French, that means "a thousand feet". What a name for a dancer!
Isn't she that deaf chick?
iT s DARTH VADER s BABY
Divorced within one year and her kid will be in rehab before age 21.
marriasaid show.ge lasts 2 years at best, divorce likely, kid will do a reality show, i will assassinate said show..
Darn it Natalie. Who is he? I'll fight him for you.
When she was the black swan I got jungle fever.
I wish her, him and baby all best wishes.
No matter what comments in that blog, she knows, really knows, what she is doing. She is that good of a human and actress.
Thanks for breaking my childish heart with this news – I couldn't be happier now that I am free of my delusions.
Gotta go, searching for MY girl now.
not because someone makes nice movies doesn t mean they are also charming in real live YOU BIG NAiVE bunch of Ninnies
I googled him, and saw his pictures. Mehhh she could've done better. But I guess, it was a shotgun. Is he Jewish? Israeli-born Portman, surely, wouldn't marry from goyim?
Thought she was better than getting pregnant and engaged. The novelty of a baby with the wrong partner wears off, I'm sure. To have a man's baby a year after after knowing him is no good. She shouldnt have it, even if she can afford it. She should know better than to make this mistake. A man who impregnates a woman before the man proposes is not trustworthy. They should decline this and wait to see if the union is solid. He's likely after her money.
Apparently he improperly taught her the Degagé technique.
Can't wait for the s3x tape. Can you imagine her getting a mug full of the white stuff? Show us some hot fudge and whipped cream, Natalie! LOL
Pregnant AND engaged, huh? Funny how one usually follows the other. And impregnated by a millipede! Now that's unusual!
Congrats on both counts Natalie, couldn't happen to a nicer person in your profession. You will make a fantastic mum I'm sure. Good luck to you both.
Wow! she is already having a baby? i remember when she was younger and came out in Star Wars! :D well congratulations!!!!!!!
Why would she marry him he probably isnt the type but i hope she deals with love cheating beating and manymore stay strong with being married to him:-(
Wow!i wanna know whos tha dad.
to watch this news visit at; http://onlinenews4u.com
Yes, the pregnant-then-get-married thing was the wrong order.
Getting pregnant was stupid b/c its like, u <3 the dude enough 2 have a kid but not get married? I c ur point about the birth control though. I guess I can stop being ashamed for her. I hope the guy's not a loser. Best of luck, padme
Wow, panda bear. Adding to cydonia, you didnt learn, dd you? Aren't you sort of used to "childbirth=death?"
NOOOOOOOO!!! COME ON, PADME, U DIDNT LEARN FROM THE TWINS? Ohhh, ani's gonna kill some1. Literally.
Has anyone noticed that her dancer fiance's name , Millepied, is French for A Thousand Feet? Portman is her stage name but his is like a doctor named bones.
Someone mentioned Meryl Streep. She is also married to an artist and has stayed married a long time. There's hope.
People get engaged and pregnant everyday. Why is it news if someone famous does it? Get a life, people!
Nat Dogg is my nerf herder! Hope she keeps it rilla with the chilla!
I've always wondered why she was not on yhe list of most beautiful people . She's (book) smarter than most is never heard of negatively , and who can complain about her acting ? Wish you all the best , big fan .
Sorry Is spelt "the wrong" and congratulations on the baby.
Who cares if she's pregnant,this isn't news.I'm sorry but she's a very boring actress with little personality and made Star Wars terrible.I don't know who she knew to get into acting,but,Wow.
she bangs, she bangs
Wow, so many people with judgements about failed birth control, baby before wedding... Blah, Blah... This is her first baby, she isn't octo-mom and she wont be milking the system for our hard earned tax dollars. Why do you care?
Man all of you religious nuts need to lay off the jesus kool aid. Who cares about whether she was pregnant before being engaged or whatever. Who cares! I've been with my wife for 10 years. We got married 3 years ago and have a wonderful 8 year old child. Our relationship is great, our daughter was able to see us get married which she got a big kick out of seeing. No make believe god is going to penalize us lol. Best wishes to ms. Portman and her fiance.
You are all going to hell.
Holy moly when did that baby become 29? now she's having a baby by a dancer. that kid is going to be gorgeous. Best to them both...
Another backwards relationship, first comes the child then the commitment. When can people make grown up decisions to raise a family, but first commit to each other till death do us part. No one takes marriage serious anymore. I promised my wife on our wedding day that I would take care of her all of her life, and thats what I will do. She did the same and I expect that she will honor her promise as well. 25 years so far.
I wish Natalie all the best. Although I had previously held her to be quite bright (Harvard?), I am disappointed that she seems to be travelling down the 'Hollywood marriage' path. You never know, the marriage could work, though, and I hope she's happy, regardless.
Nice girls get married first, then pregnant.
I give this marriage 15 months! I hope this Polanski Supporter gains a TON of weight and has to work as a chubby actress lol.
Yeah it would suck if she gains a ton of weight and turns out to look like Ricky Lake did , Otherwise they'll need to film her with a wideangle lens from now on.
I'd still do her, even if she is pregnant.
And you think we want to know this, why? Moron........
She is engaged......Since when does that infer a forthcoming marriage - in Hollywood? She is hot though. And a professional.
Almost 50% of marriages fail, maybe a higher % for celebrities, and an ironic divorce line is, "We are the best of friends and want what is best for our children, and will continue to do what is best for them; we just aren't compatible anymore." Why don't these people PRETEND they are divorced (best of friends!) even if they are miserable while married, and wait until their kids are grown to ACTUALLY divorce?! That's right stay together for stability and normalcy for your kids! If you are actors, it should be easy to fake being happy for your kids, and when the kids are independent, then split! How phony to say you are the best of friends, then confuse and damage your kids by "happily" divorcing and shuttling them between houses with exposure to new rotating girlfriends or boyfriends!
First comes the baby in the baby carriage, then comes marriage... no wait...
I cant believe the classy Natalie Portman got knocked up by some sissy French ballet dancer.
Hopefully she won't have the baby at a Wal-Mart in some hick town like in that movie Anywhere But Here.
At least these two are adults. Unlike 99.9% of you kids here. You all must have some pretty sad wives, husbands, girlfriends,and boyfriends. Or from the majority and maturity of these comments, fists.
So she gets knocked up and then decides to get married? Gee, I wonder how many years (months?) it will take for this marriage to crash and burn. LMAO!
Hollywood - what a bunch of white trash.
You mean like the millions of people who do get married first, then have kids and still end up getting divorced!
Who really cares about this crap? Seriously, if you give this sh it more than 2 seconds of your time, you REALLY need to get a life. Wow.
"So much for that lithe "Black Swan" ballerina body" - Wow, let's take happy life-cycle events and turn it into a war on body image. Is that all Nataline Portman is to CNN? Wow!
Well said, Leah. My thoughts exactly.
After all these years and all the women I had to sleep with to get where I am today...I can still hold my head up high.
Sad. It's unfortunate that she could not set a good example and get married before getting pregnant. I'm really disappointed in her.
I'm sure she's heartbroken regarding your disappointment.
It is news if you are looking at the Entertainment section, mike. I'm sorry if you got lost and thought you were reading World News. Sheesh.......
First I would like to say congratulations to the mother to be, and I wish her the absolute best for her family (regardless of what is typical of hollywood marriages)
And secondly, damn...
Somehow this is Obama's fault...
I suppose this means that Natalie's mom will be the GOP vice presidential nominee in 2012.
So Natalie has a Erdős–Bacon number of 6.
Thinking of the six degrees of separation, or more specifically Kevin Bacon, I wonder what the degree of separation in Hollywood would be if they included 5EX as a parameter. I know it's not possible to calculate, but I have a strange feeling it be something like 2.
Happy (insert holiday) ! John S. Not
While I loved "V for Vendetta" – and she was good enough in it – she was gosh awful in the Star Wars movies. The acting force is not strong with her, but she is pretty to look at…even for a male ballerina.
Awl yu peepul is crazee. Leev hur uhlon. Hel, Eye wud hav empregnatured hur eff eye hadd thu chanze.
One more reason to hate the French.......JUST KIDDING.
You grammar and spelling trolls need to get off your high and mighty horses and quit with the posterior retentive behavior. Seek help before someone accidentally drops a piano on you. This is an INFORMAL PUBLIC FORUM. The Duchess of dooshbury grammar is not used, In other words, S T F U.
Same old posts, over and over! Dolts!
Shotgun Wedding for a Star Wars hottie and a french dancing f@g...
i guess it is now the norm to get pregnant and then get married. i'm old school....when you are single, don't you know about birth control? just my opinion...
Now all she needs is the Best Actress Oscar for her brilliant role in Black Swan!
And, Wrighteous, I'm sure Natalie and her "ilk" are not losing any sleep over you banning them from your house...as if!
Poor guy got trapped. He better call Maury..
He's a BALLET DANCER!!! NOT a BALLERINA!!!!! For God's sake, you dolts, get it right! If you want to bash things, bash your head into a wall!!!
She may be talented, but she ain't too smart. Birth control is free if you can't afford it...what is her excuse????? She and the rest of the 'out of wedlock" dummies are sending the wrong message to our children. It used to be get married, then have a family. Now everything is done in reverse...buy a house together, live together, have a baby...maybe get married.
Natalie Portman is banned from my house...forever! She and the rest of her ilk should know better!
Why is it "her" fault regarding birth control? Besides, maybe she wanted and planned to have a baby.
you should change your name to "self-righteous"
She has a hot body, and she intentionally toned it up for this role. Then she's working with a choreographer who knows what he is doing around a female's body and shows her how to succeed. She's an intelligent free-thinking, independently wealthy girl who is not on drugs or going out to clubs every night, and she met a dude with a dancer's body who impressed her with his physical capabilities. You do the math, it's not scandalous or bad. You put two hot people together and they make babies, that's what reality TV is all about, have you not been paying attention!?
Can I be banned from your house too please? People say stupid things in there.
And why is it that it is Natalie Portman's responsibility to be a role model for your way of thinking? She is an actress who gets paid to act. If you don't like her acting or what she represents, then don't support her. But as long as she isn't harming society (ala Lohan) with her private life, she has no responsibility to conform to your standards.
When I saw 'Jackie Burkhart' from That '70s Show munching a super-skinny Padme Amidala from Star Wars in The Black Swan I didn't think the next thing we'd be seeing was engagement and Baby but; That's Show Biz.
Just got my tan on...now i am going to do some Ho Ho Ho-ing....anyone drunk enough to be with me?
Sh sh sh shotgunnn weddinnng bluess
Whats wrong with pigs? They are great slow roasted over an open pit. Mmm....
Another shotgun wedding.... I love it! But ladies, quit going down the aisle pregnant. Wait till you have the baby if you can not do it before you start showing.
obviously looks are the most important thing in your life. how horribly shallow your life must be. The wedding ceremony is actually about taking a life long vow to love and honor one other person. im not worried about her wedding pictures, i'm sure a fat and pregnant NP will still be a million times more attractive than you on your best day.
Where in the article did it say she was pregnant prior to the engagement? Perhaps they just announced them at the same time. Maybe the planned on getting married anyway. My husband and I began trying to get pregnant prior to getting married...it happens, folks.
The article said pregnant and enganged, not pregnant and married. Im ok with it tho.
AWESOME!!! This girl deserves everything good that comes her way. She is one of the last few classy & just downright "normal" celebrities (along w/ Sandra Bullock, Tom Hanks, Will Smith, Meryl Streep & Morgan Freeman) in Hollywood. I wish her only the best & a still scorching career for all her years!
(And no i'm not being so happy just just I have "anakin" in my name. haha)
Morgan Freeman made your classy list? Why, because he has a deep voice? That 75 year old is getting married to his 20 year old step grand-daughter.
Here we go again. This won't go down well with Anakin Skywalker.
I never found her to be very compelling as an actress but I know she is a smart woman and seems nice. I'm sure she'll be a great mom.
So many people trying desperately to post Star Wars jokes and most all of them fail.
Just for you: Mila Kunis had a first take but passed out after a couple of lap rounds
Interesting to see that the daughter of a gynecologist has no idea how birth control works.
I'm sure she knows how birth control works you A$$.
It seems like 90% of Hollywood doesn't know how birth control works. My theory is that she probably had amenorrhea (stop of menstruation due to her losing too much weight for Black Swan) so she probably thought she didn't need birth control. Wrong, it doesn't mean her body still isn't releasing eggs!
She's 30 and this is her first pregnancy. She's a contraception pro.
The fact you have a theory about how her menstruation cycles or lack there of in regards to her getting pregnant seems obsessive to me.
You don't know how or why it happened. Your speculation is crass.
Congrats! Really happy for her.
I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced. I fear something terrible has happened.
She's a horrible actress and a Polanski supporter.
Congratulations to the both of them! I hope they are very happy and are blessed with a healthy child!
OH MAN!! Take her off my list of celeb crushes. Tomei, where are you?! lol
These Hollywood types always seem to fall in love "on the set" of their last movie/show. They never practice contraception and the marriages last for less than 3 years. They live and work in make-believe worlds. Reality is not in their make-up. Their personal lives are usually a mess – why do we think that we need to listen to them. I love Natale Pportman and hope that this works out. BUT!!!!
Don't you mean "butt"? ;-)
On a more serious note, you have a point. One would think that a Harvard grad, especially a psychology major *AND* an old hand at the acting gig, would figure out that relationships built in too short a time and under pressure usually don't last because one just doesn't know enough about the other...
Of course, I'm sure you're aware that almost every football player in the NFL takes ballet because it makes you INCREDIBLY strong, flexible, and balanced.
ever hear of Mikhail Baryshnikov you IGNORAMUS?!?!?!?!?
oh well, there goes another nice looking body down the tubes
you are DISGUSTING, jesus on strike. where are the cnn moderators right now? you should be hunted down and arrested. or better yet, killed.
That is no way to talk to your lord and saviour young lady!
Whoops! She got those two in the wrong order.
To those who are bashing Ms. Portman for becoming pregnant before getting married:
The article does not provide an order of events, probably intentionally, because this sort of thing is controversial. Did any of you stop to think that perhaps the two are madly in love and planned this pregnancy? It's possible, and there's not a thing wrong with it. There's no need to vilify this amazing actress based on your petty assumptions.
In pre-Victorian times, it was common not to get married until a baby was expected. Some would get married first, though if a baby did not come within a few years the marriage would be annulled,
Only in our "modern" age have we held such archaic beliefs as to the "proper" order of the events of marriage, pregnancy, and the like.
I agree with you, I am shocked that she was able to become pregnant after such dramatic weight loss on her already lithe frame. I just became however that she has been dating her fiance for over a year now and its quite possible that she is already several months into her pregnancy. Just bc Black Swan is just now being released doesnt mean that she filmed it just recently. They were first outed as a couple last New Year at a party in NY.
its sad that some of you are so unhappy with your own lives that you must judge this young lady on her life choices. so what if she has a baby before she gets married. chances are, this child will be living a much more enjoyable and secure life than your own children...
I'm not judging the lady, I'm just sad that she cheated on me. We were together for 11 years, in my mind.
You are kidding right? Too many strikes against this child. Poor baby.
Too many strikes? The baby's mother is intelligent, well educated, and wealthy and the father is successful in his own right.
I wish I had those strikes against me when I was born.
I hope she starts taking care of herself now that she is with child. She foolishly lost 30 pounds from her already slim body for her most recent role. Even in pictures taken since then she looks like skin and bones. Here's hoping she gets her skinny behind to the nearest restaurant and gets a sandwich ASAP!
To be honest, I was a little surprised that she was able to get pregnant. I know bigger girls than that who have had their cycles stop because they were too thin and/or malnourished and/or possessed a low body fat percentage.
"Skinny behind"??? I guess you didn't see that picture of her derriere while she was wearing a thong in "The Closer" and the ones of her in the R-rated version of "Your Highness" stripping down to take a dip! That's no "skinny behind"!!! That's one lusciously rounded behind!!! Millepied is one lucky sod!
Wish someone would get me pregnant....am i too ugly???
You gotta use the other hole if you're trying to get pregnant.... It doesn't work with the one you're used to abusing.
I wouldnt mind trying it if it works thru facials
Seconds? Anyone?
I'd rather have Mila Kunis anyway..
The starfish is still bubblin'!
Just announced! There will be twins! Yoda and Chewbacca!
Wait, Benjamin Millepied isn't a Jew..? Uh-oh!
i guess this means she really is a female. i thought she was justin beiber in a dress.
lucky man
The only thing hotter than Natilie Portman is probably pregnant Natalie Portman...
the news is not worth even a yawn...
ah yes, but it is worth dropping a hot two gallon load to!!!
But it was worth your time to tell everyone it wasn't worth your time to read and comment?
Frankly, I honestly hope that they have a long and happy marriage; there are far too many cynical people out there that are counting on this to end badly. I know the odds are against them but once in a blue moon things do work and I think it helps that Benjamin Millepied is not part of the Hollywood crowd and has his own successful career.
PS: Good God their children are going to be ridiculously good looking!
She's a wonderful actress! One of my favorites. Congratulations to her!
she is a cute little boy
i hope this wont stunt her growth
First everyone should congratulate Portman on keeping the baby and not aborting it.
Then tell your kids that Protman's decision is second best. Harsh words sometimes get attention. Best is a marriage that is a marriage, not a marriage based solely on the goal of child rearing. Good way to make you and your partner feel special? Get married first. If that doesn't happen, then do your best to turn your relationship into something good. (yes there are implications to that statement and they should be there) Also point out that there need not be lockstep life plans. While Portman is doing the guidance teacher approved thing and getting married near to thirty, actually getting married anytime is fine.
How is it you somehow KNOW the primary purpose for this relationship is child rearing? Some people actually choose to avoid marriage because of the complications. In the case of Hollywood stars, they often avoid it because of the media frenzy. The only compelling reason for them to get legally married is to protect the child from legal issues.
I have lots of friends and colleagues who did similarly (without the Hollywood glitz). They did not want the hassle and expense of a wedding, so they never got married until they were expecting. The relationships and vows were real, however, and already in place LONG before the pregnancy.
Have you thought that maybe they WANTED to get pregnant? My husband and I were engaged for only a few months when I found out I was pregnant. Birth control failed. We chose to bump the wedding up and we got married much sooner than planned. Two children and 7 years later, we are very happy and still very much so in love. Even if I hadn't gotten pregnant, we still would have married at some point. Perhaps Natalie and her fiancée were engaged first and just hadn't announced it yet. As far as I can see she prefers to stay out of the tabloids and leads a very quiet and private life.
Actually, what's best is that they should keep their own narrow views to themselves instead of judging others or worse trying to force them on others. You should give it a try yourself.
who really cares.
I loved her on the PeeWee Herman Show. Staring as Pewee in the final 2 episodes was a triumph for her career.
Who in the h*** cares?
Apparently you do, since you clicked through to this article.
Amazing the number of hypocritical who always have to show up saying who cares – after they have read the article & posted a comment. Totally cracks me up........ idiots.
The article says nothing about the time, place or duration of said impregnation. You need to step up your journalism, CNN.
Who cares...
Novalee, I seriously hope you wont be delivery in WalMart ?
thats cool
A choreographer with the name Millepieds? Really?
I was thinking the same thing. Must be a ridiculous stage name; there's no way that's real.
Wow – American's live sheltered decadent lives. Were Portman living in Iran or Afghanistan she'd be stoned to death for getting herself into this pickle. The least America should do is shun her out of society.
Actually, it's the pickle that got into her....
She would have been shunned. Back in the 1400s. If Iran and Afghanistan want to be treated with respect like a modern nation, they first need to start treating their own women with respect.
ooh, I love pickles especially in there oh baby yeah baby
Don't these Hollyweird actors and acrtresses have any eduction on using PROTECTION or BIRTH CONTROL??? They're all a bunch of MORONS!!! There are worse things out there than an accidental pregnancy!!! She is a LOSER for skipping out on her obligation to the IDF in her native country ISRAEL!!!
Forget about unwanted pregnancy. HIV is worse.
of course not... it's called Liberalism
@WylieBurp – as if this never happens to conservatives? Bristol Palin jumps to mind right away.
Who says the pregnancy was unplanned? I think you are reading between the lines a little too much there.
@ Kimberly–"Don't these Hollyweird actors and acrtresses have any eduction on using PROTECTION or BIRTH CONTROL" REALLY!!!! Proofread before you start calling people MORONS!! Bless your heart
Ahh – Kimberly, you might be careful of calling other folks morons. Yours is one of the most moronic, self-righteous posts I've seen in a long time.. Hey waxin! Good one! Bristol came immediately to mind!
How about "The couple WAS first romantically linked..." Did you even have to have a diploma to get this job?
What about you? Your grammar is just as bad - and in only one sentence, too!
User the grammarqueen is right. Couple is considered a singular word. Proper subject/verb agreement dictates that the sentence use "was" not "were."
The article is correct in its grammar. The couple signifies two; it would be incorrect to say, "The two was first..." or "They was first..."
Actually, couple—and other mass nouns such as squad, force, team, fish, etc.—can be used with either singular or plural verbs. It all depends on the connotation that the writer is trying to achieve. In this case, the use is perfect, as none of us posting were aware that the two were/are one. (The couple of people versus two people coupled as one.)
Congratulations to them both! II hope the marriage is long and happy and that the offspring is (could be are) healthy.
Why can't people do it in the correct order. Engagemant, marriage , then children?
Unwanted Pregnancy Engagement... it's the new trend in Hollyweird... That is my opinion.
I don't think the world in general, even knows how to do it the right way anymore! It's just too easy to hop in the sack, get pregnant, get engaged, and then maybe get married. Our world is in the fast lane, of immorality!
They do it just to annoy you.
@ lolasmama
I think someone forgot to tell nature engagement and marriage were prerequisites for having a baby.
BTW, your way doesn't automatically equal the "correct" one.
Congrats. As long as this is what they wanted then good for them.
Correct way? Whose correct way? Step out of your little box and be happy for the woman, her fiance and the new life they created.
Why do people like this even get space on here anyways? There are a ton of unmarried woman oh and kids having babies and they do not get this type of advertisement to let everyone know they are having a baby. This must be a new way to ask for gifts I guess.
Define "correct" order. What might be the proper order for one person is not necessarily the way that it works out for another person. It is ignorant, and unnecessarily judgmental to assume that this is not the right order for Ms. Portman. So you think she should have done things differently? Good for you, do you want a cookie? Different chronological movements work for different people. There are people who have gotten engaged, married & pregnant just to end up miserable then divorced. There is no "right" way that works for the entire world.
She had a career booming before she finished high school or college. She did that "out of order" too. Do you think that is wrong? I think you should open your mind to other ways to live your life. Just because its not right for you doesn't mean that it doesn't work for someone in this world. You can come down off your high horse now.
@becca – what a hypocrite you are... bi+ching about an article that YOU took the time to read AND then to comment on... go away......... and take your judgmental crap with you.
Cool, maybe now she'll develop a chest.
I think the prospect of you developing an intellect is far less likely.
You mean, like the FAKE ones MOST of the women in Hollywood have? You do realize most of them have had implants, don't you? I love her tall, REAL body. She is beautiful, and I am not even a "fan".......loser...........
soon after the birth of her twins, they will be secretly sprited away so that the evil d. cheney doesn't know of their existance. oh wait, this millipied character is the father. if he is the mastermind behind this evil swan, then he must be the emperor. who knew that d. cheney answered to someone.
I heard Alanis Morissette is the babys dad. Is this true.
no, you're wrong. alanis morisette was put out to pasture a few years ago.
no, Lady Gag-a is. Don't ask, don't want to know.....
Sorry but this is somewhat disappointing. Everyone else gets engaged once they find out they are pregnant in Hollywood and for NP to join that club, I don't know, it's a let down, especially with her smarts. Jeez
rash judgements – and that goes to everyone else who make similar comments – i hope the snide remarks make you feel better about what must be a pathetic life you lead... at least NP reads the studies proving a married man and woman offer children the best chance at a success filled life. I wish them the best, it's a wonderful thing to be responsible for your actions and babies bring two together unlike any other thing on this planet. I speak from experience..
I am not sure how getting pregnant prior to being married takes away from her intelligence. Even the best birth control fails sometimes. I think she is just as smart as before. The only difference now is that she is pregnant. I am still trying to figure out how getting pregnant makes her stupid. This is an absolutely absurd presumption to make. There are plenty of intelligent people who get pregnant on accident. Its happened, she's pregnant now and it makes no difference what her marital status is. She has more than enough means to support the child (also smart) as well as (from all appearances) a supportive partner to help raise him/her. There are married couples who have less. It seems to me that its is very smart to have support financially & romantically. I say congratulations and the naysayers need to STFU.
Liz, I'm sure Natalie is just as disappointed in your making judgments about other people. Nah, I'm kidding. She doesn't give a rat's azz what people like you think. Go get a life so you don't have to be disappointed in people you don't even know.
What that so funny natie portman is pregent and engadeg i lost sight out of both of my eyes
It's not as funny as how badly you spell.
Hopefully that will keep you away from your keyboard. Trying to make sense of your blathering is exhausting...
If it's a boy, Luke. If it's a girl, Leia. :)
You didn't hear the galactic scuttlebutt I've heard. She was impregnated by Yoda. That's why he is so powerful and she so wise. Anakin Skywalker found out he was sterile because of his exposure to a hypermatter reactor core. Padmé went to Yoda to explain her plight and he used the ancient powers of the Temple of Light. He willed upon her a twin conception by drawing upon an enormous energy field that pulled dna from Anikan and placed it into Padmé.
How many legs is the baby gonna have?
Or how many eggs is Portman going to lay.
Ew. That image just made me spew my coffee. What a waste. Now I have to get up and get more.
Can you say OOOPS! the withdrawl method doesn't always work!
You cant stop the miticloreans (or however the dumb azz word is supposed to be spelled)
I'm thinking they were relying more on the anorexia method.
Here's an idea. Did you ever think that maybe they wanted to have a kid?
I'd still hit it...
The dancer?
@ Bill Clinton, can't it be both?
pregnant then engaged. Dont tell my Grandmother. She'll lecture you about putting the cart before the horse. You must build the nest first.
And go against literally centuries of long-standing and respected tradition? There have been "shotgun weddings" for as long as there have been shotguns! (Actually, ancient Greek and Roman writers talked about these type of "happy accidents" and weddings alot.. so really, there's nothing new under the sun!)
Is it twins!? May the force be strong in them.
Funny how people get married now these days or don't. They get pregnant first then decide to get married.
You don't have to get married to get pregnant, and you don't have to be married to be a good parent. Besides, there are a whole social class of people who are NOT allowed to get married. So, if you believe in civil rights, it invalidates the concept of marriage for EVERYONE.
I have to agree with you, and NOT Wilson. Traditional marriage has been around for thousands of years. Just because one group of people 'cannot' get 'married' doesn't mean that all marriage in invalidated.
This "social class" of people that aren't allowed to get married can't have kids. So your attempt to connect parenting to marriage fails.
@wilson – don't go away angry...just go away.
Jay G – you're attempt to connect parenting with people who 'can have' kids fails because loads of people that can't have kids can still be parents.
"these days"? What rock do you live under? Absolutely none of your business any way...
Hopefully a French ballet fop named Millipede will be man enough for her. I've heard some mighty odd things about those ballet dancers.
A milliped compared a centiped has more leg.
OH MY GOD you're HYSTERICAL! He's a DANCER! And there's this stereotype that all male dancers are GAY! And you made a JOKE ABOUT IT! Oh God the originality, the wit, you're amazing!!!!
It's amazing that in this modern age there are still people out there like you.
The article does not mention who the father is.
So, you think she knows who the father is?
Gay? Like Baryshnikov?
To the person that said that the article doesn't mention who the father is of Ms. Portman's child– you are incorrect. The wording was, "Portman and choreographer Benjamin Millepied are engaged and expecting their first child together." So this indicates that Mr. Millepied is the father. Reading comprehension fail, seriously. Thanks for playing.
And another one for the wisecracks: I wonder what Anakin will do?
My guess is cry and then do another Jumper movie
And all the Star Wars geeks cry out in unison, "NO !!!!!!!"
I think Carrie Fisher is single bwhahaha!
It's a trap!
I think you meant to say.. "no... that's not true... THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE!!!"
happy 1st baby "SINCE" star wars!? aaah a new port.
@Superhiro... LMAO!! You may be right :)
Thats wonderful news! Congrats to one of my favorite hollywood actresses!
10 bucks says the kid looks like Mark Hamill.
Before or after the car crash?
I couldn't help but laugh on that one.
Not if it looks like Carrie Fisher.
$20 says they used a turkey baster!
BAHHA! I had to comment on this one! Like!
good one... I "lol'ed" on that
Funny! I think that is the best remark ever.
Dang it!!! I lost my chance!
You may still get your chance. Even though I like Natalie Portman – and hope she is happy – chances of Hollywood marriages lasting are slim to none. Hollywood is like the revolving door of marriage and divorce.
I wouldn't fret too much over losing a chance that is 0%.
Given the hollywood divorce rate and the ordinary Joe rebounds, I would say your chance has improved. :-p
I give her credit for marrying a ballerina with less money than she. However, unless you are wealthy or a brilliant artist you do not have a chance.
Wow, my heart is TOTALLY broken! One of the last intelligent, beautiful and personable celebrity females out there, off the market. Aww, man. Either way, good luck, Natalie! I wish you the best!
@Realist – Which team does he not play for? He seems to have 4-bagged Natalie Portman, that should give you a clue which way he swings.
i hate this man, Benjamin Millepied, you have just made another enemy
She is marrying me, so get over it.
Love you natalie
Regards New Hubby ha ha ha ha
She was hot in Leon: The Professional.
Dane Cook is the father.

Does Riot have any plans to somehow make the game easier/better when a leaver happens? A personal idea I have is that after a certain amount of time make it a loss forgiven, and give the leaver harsher penalties. Obviously this could be abused in ranked and I have no idea how to get around that. Edit: Also post any ideas you have on how Riot should handle disconnects and leavers. Edit2: We've had some really great ideas throughout this thread, from a seperate queue to take over leavers, to having the game restart after a certain point in time, keep the ideas coming! Maybe if this thread gets enough player attention, we'll get some red attention too! If you wanna see some change in how the game is currently handling leavers, not for them but for the poor saps who get left in the game, leave a comment or upvote! If you have a thought, put it down. Lets get our voices heard!
You answered your own question, it's easily abused. Unless someone comes with non-abusable we won't get anything soon =/
HERO queue.. that is all (in hero q you take over for a leaver and receive most of the ip) if the person comes back: you get a portion of the ip or something. if you get a "hero" taking over for a leaver in your game and you think he sucks: you can teamvote to have him replaced with another hero. ie instant judgment is passed on trolls in the hero queue.
these types of threads never seem to get any attention. qq

What I love about this cream is that it absorbs fast. It does make my hands soft and silky but only until l I wash my hands. After that are back to normal feeling a little dry. I am looking for a cream that will make my hands soft and "fix" them not just cover the dryness.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Amazing product! Softens hands like no other cream that I've tried and sinks in quickly, so there's no greasy feeling, which I love. To me, it smells like baby lotion, which is light and not overpowering. Clarins isn't the cheapest brand in the world, but I got a 1.7 ounce tube at Sephora for $10 and it's worth every penny. I will definitely repurchase.
More reviews by mrssarahturner
Best hand cream I've used, but expensive, as all Clarins products are. I have a small tube as well as a large one, as I got it when Clarins was on gift - very handy for handbag use!
Hands down, the BEST hand cream (and, yes, pun intended.) It's great for those who like to change up their nail polish but hate stripped & brittle nails. It keeps my nails firm & in good shape. I swear, my it makes my nails grow faster. The cream itself is relatively lightweight and sinks right in with a lovely, citrusy fragrance. I'll put it on my hands (and nails) at night, and they stay moisturized through the next day. I also wash my hands A LOT, and this saves them from hard water and winter weather. I'm young, so I can't comment on its anti-aging properties, but I do believe this will keep my hands looking young, too. I've repurchased this a little less than a year after purchasing my first. It's the total bees-knees, one of the reasons I'm a loyal Clarins customer.
I started using this cream in the spring, after the Elizabeth Arden's Eight Hour Cream kept my hands soft ober the winter, which was very harsh on my skin. I noticed that bits on my fingertips were getting dry and cracked and also my nails were getting more brittle than usual. It just wasn't moisturising enough. My dry fingertips disappeared once I started usin a different hand cream. So my veridct is - not good enough.
This cream comes in a squeeze tube and smells like all other Clarins' creams. Its an okay scent and not everyone will like it (read: my boyfriend) but it does leave the hands smooth and silky without any greasy feeling or residue. The softness even lasts for a few hours! I can put this on and use the keyboard immediately and there will be no oily sheen on the keys. One tube does last you a while so I can justify the price for that. Clarins usually sells sets at their counter- I got mine last Christmas and it came with a body scrub, this cream, a face cleanser and a few other things for quite a good price. Overall, a nice hand cream and I would definitely repurchase.
This is my holy grail hand cream. I've used this on and off for years, but always come back to it. The smell is fantastic and the cream sinks in beautifully without lingering greasiness. It leaves my bare nails and cuticles looking soft and smooth, as well.
This is my favorite handcream. It moisturizes like crazy, absorbs really fast plus it smells delish.
In the winter I have to use a richer formula for night though.
Would I buy this product again? Yes, I have for the past couple of years.
ok this is the best hand cream, i normally hate hand cream because i find it way too greasy and i jut hate that feeling, i got this as a free sample and it just melts into your hands instantly- instant moisture with none of the grease perfect!!also i love the smell i think is lovely. after my sample ran out i went and bought it from clarins, ok its expensive for a hand cream but it lasts a long time and its the best one out there on the market i feel.

The 28-year old will provide back up for number one Bernd Leno and brings with him a vast amount of Bundesliga experience following spells at Bayern Munich and Die Geibocke
Bayern Leverkusen have completed the signing of Michael Rensing on a free transfer, following his release from FC Koln.
The 28-year-old has signed a one year deal at the club and Bayer managing director Wolfgang Holzhauser revealed his delight at the capture.
"We have signed an experienced and high quality back-up for our number one Bernd Leno. We made this move as we are involved in three competitions," he told the club's official website.Rensing brings with him vast Bundesliga experience having made over 50 appearances for Bayern during his seven year spell with the German giants.
And sporting director Rudi Voller was equally thrilled to bring a player of such pedigree to the BayArena.
"Michael Rensing was always a key player at Cologne and he produced some outstanding performances there. His experience can and will help Bernd Leno to perform even better in goal," he added.

The old town of Salies has maintained its beautiful old houses, as if preserved in salt from its precious spring. The Saleys flows lazily through it, with a string of Bearn-style brown roofs with curved eaves reflected in its waters on either side of the Pont de la Lune. The heart of the old town is the irregular Place du Bayaà, featuring a pool (covered in 1868) from which the spring water was drawn. Across from the town hall is the Wild Boar Fountain (1827), built with elements of Gothic architecture.

YAY I beat it!!IT was long.
IT had a "shadow of colussus" kind of feel to it where you kill a bunch of legendary giants. Well made. the only thing that threw the rating off a bit was the graphics which were a bit messy. I still gave it a 5 because it turned out well and was original. MAke another but improve the graphics.

very nicely done (anyone up for some panzer dragoon orta?)
very enter taining and very good music for the situations the only real problem I had as the hover (space bar) after using it finaly during the last boss i couldn't catch back up and the game was too easy in all honestly but very fun keep up the great work looking forward to your next submission
To the front page with ye!
After sorting through dozens of typical NG submissions, it seems somewhat unfair to vote on a professionally made game. Even so, 5/5; the pseudo-3D is pretty awsome, and the attention to detail superb. The variety of level types and control options are nice as well. It does seem to be missing a degree of involvement - for the period I played it, it didn't give any impression that you could actually lose.
Great Game!!
I've never seen a game like this on newgrounds but it is great I like it!
I like
I like this game a lot! It's a bit repetative but hey, arn't most games?

Luxury jewelry and giftware stores are waking up. They have been as traditionally stuffy as banks in their design, but their globe-trotting clientele is demanding an upgrade. Bored out of their minds, they want an edge, a spark, a something, to break up the monotony and to add some interest.
We've featured a few, including Octium in Kuwait,- Podium Paris and Solange Azagury-Partridge London and here is another to add to that list: The two-level Faraone jewelery boutique in Milan, on Via Montenapoleone, envisioned by architect Massimo Iosa Ghini. whose retail design work includes showrooms for Maserati and Ferrari.
At Faraone, his subdued, metallic setting for the items on display symbolizes the precious-metal setting of a ring or pendant that sets out the stones, engraving and minute details.
There is also a cool, retro factor, reminiscent of the mysterious estate jewelry areas in luxury department stores of the past. The soft nappa leather chairs and the tone-on-tone carpeting add to the feel of being inside a jewelry box. - Tuija Seipell.
This is how you market real estate and take advantage of social media. Draw attention like this fantastic video drew ours! It was created by Tronic Studio in New York, the same team that is busy putting on the finishing touches on the TCH TV video we will be showing here next week!
The real estate in question here is the 57-story luxury residence, 56 Leonard, in Tribeca, designed by the Pritzker-prize winning, Beijing Bird Nest-creating Swiss firm of Herzog & de Meuron. Tronic tapped into their architecture background to envision this video where the elements of each floor fall down from the Manhattan sky and land on the custom-designed sculpture by Anish Kapoor. Absolutely brilliant.- Bill Tikos
The era of chrome-and-billet choppers is drawing to a close. Even Harley-Davidson dealers are swapping the leather tassels for carbon fiber and murder-black paintjobs. In the UK, a south coast dealer called Shaw Speed and Custom is setting the pace, creating show bikes that win at the world's top custom motorcycle shows—and beating the Americans at their own game.
In the build-up to the AMD World Championship held at Sturgis, the latest two bikes from SS&C are creating a stir. The 'Nascafe' is a low-slung, dragster-influenced machine created in association with the American watch manufacturer Bell & Ross. Embedded in the tank is a $4,000 BR 01 Carbon timepiece, a further touch of originality.
The XLST3 is another radical departure from the norm. Dirt-track tires and race plates give the bike a sporty look rarely seen on Harleys, and the stock suspension has been replaced by high-performance items more commonly seen on superbikes.
These are not the sort of motorcycles the Teutel family builds on American Chopper, and they're all the better for it. Harley-Davidson is taking note too, with a new 'Dark Custom' range designed to attract younger, more style-conscious bikers. - Chris Hunter of Bike EXIF
National Geographic Channel have created a real-life version of the animated film Up — launching a house thousands of metres into the air using balloons.
A team of scientists, engineers, and two world-class balloon pilots successfully launched a 16' X 16' house 18' tall with 8' coloured weather balloons from a private airfield east of Los Angeles, and set a new world record for the largest balloon cluster flight ever attempted.
Using 300 helium-filled weather balloons, the lightweight building reached an altitude of more than 3000m and remained in the air for about an hour.
The filming of the event, from a private airstrip, will be part of a new National Geographic Channel series called How Hard Can it Be?, which will premiere in fall 2011.
The stunning Sunset Chapel in Acapulco, Mexico, was completed only recently, but it has already gained much attention for its stark and arresting design by Esteban and Sebastián Suárez of Mexico City-based BNKR Arquitectura.
It is a memorial chapel that will eventually be surrounded by a "garden" of crypts. With its bare-concrete structure that appears eternal, and its slatted walls and glass cross that allow the light to perform its daily magic in the space, Sunset Chapel looks and behaves like a modern-day Stonehenge. Mysterious and stark, yet reassuring and calming; protective, yet part of the surrounding nature.
The elevated shape was partly dictated by an enormous boulder that already ruled the site, and by the wish to allow the spectacular view to be visible from within. At only 120 square meters in size, the chapel evokes a surprising sense of strength. - Tuija Seipell
Illegal Burger, at Møller Gata 23 in Olso, capital of Norway, opened in secrecy late last year but it has since become a hit among those who appreciate a delicious charcoal-grilled burger.
Located in a space that used to house a "knock-three-times" club, the fresh-looking burger place still carries some of that mystery, hence the name, too.
Illegal Burger does not quite fit in any standard restaurant or club category and it does not look like a burger joint. Low-ceilinged and only 43 square meters in size, the heavily wood-paneled space looks a bit like a below deck of a ship, with the tight kitchen resembling a galley. Flexibility was one of the key points in the design brief because the space functions as a party space, hosting intimate events with DJs and late night parties.
Illegal Burger was established by three partners, Emil Hesselberg, who is a well-known local restaurateur and owner of the city's top dance club, The Villa at Møller Gata 25, and two passionate cooks with a skating background, Mike Henriksen and Jostein Kristiansen.
The interior and furnishings were designed by Al Coulson with visual communications, including logo and graphics, by The Metric System. - Tuija Seipell.
There are no alligators outside this cool kindergarten, located in Ramat Gan, near Tel Aviv, Israel. But inside, there definitely are alligators and they are white.
White alligators may not be the first things that would come to mind if you were asked to design a kindergarten environment. But Tel-Aviv-based designer Sarit Shani Hay, creator of fun kindergarten spaces, doesn't think like the rest of us.
She took her inspiration from the surroundings of the kindergarten — an agricultural training farm with lush vegetable gardens and purposeful functionality.
In her projects, Hay combines sleek functionality with unexpected whimsy, typified here by the white crocs that function as lounge chairs for the little ones.
Other focal points include a large mushroom that serves as a house, a hiding place and a play station; and a wooden house with windows and a red roof; and shelving units in the shape of trees. All of these have a functional purpose and look inviting and cool, but the main benefit is their inspiration for play and interaction. Rather than just sitting there like any furniture, these pieces are also playthings that invite the children to discover and experiment.
The space has two rooms for two age groups: one for 1.5-2.5 year-olds, and the other for 2.5-3.5 year-olds. A large block of white closets divides the two spaces and hides the kids mattresses and contains each kid's own drawer.
And, if you are like us and would like one of those gators, you will need to be in touch with Hay, because she both designed and made them by hand. Apparently, they are available in three sizes – we imagine them to be tiny-ish, plain scary and horrendous. - Tuija Seipell
Tourism offices around the world pay attention - this is how you promote a country.
Tim and Fiona Slack (T&F Slack) are married to each other and to their love of creating shoes, considered "modern classics" by industry standards. Their collection gives the classic "Gibson" or "Derby" shoe shape new life when unexpected color combinations, stitching details and fabrications are blended together.
You can choose from the perforated Punch Derby in white leather with yellow peaking beneath, or have a custom pair made to order in their Notting Hill Shop, or use the simple "build your own shoe" system they've created within Selfridges and Liberty.
Dedicated to keeping manufacturing local, they make around 150 shoes per month in their factory where old-fashioned machinery is salvaged and customized to create their "modern classic" shoes. With so much repetition in the world of shoes, it's so refreshing to see a unique and bespoke solution that really does draw the eye downwards! – Kate Vandermeer
The interior design of Bank of Moscow's offices in central Moscow's Kuznetsky Most area (Kuznetsky Most street 13) retains the building's great historical bones and matches customized adornments to them.
The office — one of the Bank's many offices — occupies 7,000 square metres on the third floor and in the previously unused mansard (attic) space. Moscow-based designer, Alexey Kuzmin, retained by architectural office Sretenka for this assignment, used the space's key feature, the large, hexagon-shaped central hall, as the defining point. He placed the client services functions in this grand, open area to evoke and retain the elegant feel of the entire building.
It is windowless, so Kuzmin created a stained-glass ceiling, that echoes the forms and style of the building. Everything in the client zone was customized, including the tall wooden doors with glass, stained-glass windows, chandeliers, oak paneling for walls and ceilings and the marble floors.
Kuzmin located the staff offices on the wings or balconies surrounding the client zone. The dividers in the office area are made of glass with wooden arches around them.
The attic had no historically significant features and it was designed as a typical, effective office. Glass dividers allow light into the space from the small narrow roof-top windows. The ceiling is made of fire resistant panels, covered with birch veneer. The white office furniture is by Vitra.
The storied building has housed the Tretyakov Trading House (same Tretyakovs that are behind the Tretjakov Art Gallery) and the expansive shop of the famous Russian photographer, J. Daziaro. Over time, the Kuznetsky Most area has changed from an upper-class shopping district (early 1800s) to financial district (mid 1800s), to Bolshevik and KGB offices, and back to elegant shopping (since 1980s). Tuija Seipell.

What if you felt like that was literally true – like time with your loved ones was slipping away?
The children's charity Rainbow Trust is asking people across the UK to take part in its biggest annual fundraising and awareness campaign known as The Big Hour Tea Time.
The event is centred on that extra hour gained when the clocks go back later this month, highlighting how crucial one hour is for families caring for a child with a life-threatening or terminal illness.

Call provisions
Call provisions are the terms under which bonds, preferred stocks, and related fixed income securities may be called. A call gives the issuer to right to refund the issue at a specified price on or after a specified date.
Expanded Definition
Call provisions are somewhat like refinancing a mortgage. They allow the borrower to call in outstanding debt and refinance often at a lower rate.
Some securities have complex call provisions with a schudule of payments required if the issue is called between a series of specified dates. The details are listed in the prospectus for the issue. QuantumOnline [1] does an excellent job of summarizing call provisions. They also provide links to the original prospectus for the issue. (But the bond ratings shown on QuantumOnline are "when issued" and may not be current.)

'Nikita': Devon Sawa on Owen's Bad Timing, Confrontations and Search for Truth
Working with others will be an adjustment, Sawa tells THR: "Owen isn't used to working on a team, doing things quietly, using his head before he does things."
It'll be Nikita (Maggie Q) and Owen (Devon Sawa) on The CW's Nikita for the foreseeable future -- at least where field assignments are concerned. Following Michael's traumatic (and physical) sacrifice in "Intersection" a few episodes ago, the former field agent will be adjusting to his new role in Division as a behind-the-scenes handler.
"There will be more teaming up," Sawa told The Hollywood Reporter of Nikita and Owen's continued partnership, which isn't something Michael (Shane West) takes lightly. "I don't think Owen is stepping in at certain times with bad intentions. He really cares about Nikita; he's got her back. He's sticking up for her."
STORY: 'Nikita': Devon Sawa and Melinda Clarke Preview Their 'Explosive' Returns
He added, "Michael doesn't like the fact that they're out on missions together and he has to learn to like Owen." In one particular scene set in an art gallery, Michael coaches the "thuggish" Owen through the mission since he's operating in Michael's world. That's not to say Michael will take a backseat in the action. "Michael saves the day a couple times," Sawa hinted, adding that "Owen isn't used to working on a team, doing things quietly, using his head before he does things."
In "Aftermath," viewers saw Owen, former Division cleaner, go up against a rogue one. As Sawa tells it, there was a reason why Owen could not have taken a similar path.
"The difference between Owen and Liam (the cleaner he and Nikita were going up against) is Division wasn't able to pull out Owen's conscience. He still had a heart. He was able to get a girlfriend on the side and fall in love. That's why he's so close to Nikita. They're kind of from the same kind of world," he said. "The only reason why Owen and Liam went separate ways was because Owen had a heart."
Though Owen and Nikita will continue to "go on little missions," Sawa noted that Amanda (Melinda Clarke) is always in the back of Owen's mind. She is his true goal. "Owen, personally, is chasing Amanda because of his past. She's got the key to Sam," he said, "but they go after other Dirty Thirty characters."
PHOTOS: CW's 2012-13 Season: 'The Carrie Diaries,' 'Cult' and 'Arrow'
One of those people will be Ari Tasarov (Peter Outerbridge), who plays a big role in the Amanda quest. "He's going to get some answers out of him," Sawa revealed, adding that those particular scenes are "really, really cool."
In addition to more Owen and Nikita missions, expect Owen to go off with Alex (Lyndsy Fonseca) where they get some quality bonding time in. "We're in a car together and we're getting to know each other. Owen attempts a joke and it's only funny because it was so awkward," Sawa recalled. "The whole time Sean's (Dillon Casey) listening in."
"Owen's always in the wrong place at the wrong time with these girls," he joked. For the time being, don't expect any romance for Owen. "It's not General Hospital," Sawa deadpanned.
When Sawa sat down for the interview, he was awaiting the next script, which he said was likely to include pivotal information about Owen's backstory. "[Creator] Craig [Silverstein] has kept me completely in the dark about Owen's past, and I know just as much as the fans know at this point," he said.
Sawa was as shocked as viewers were at Michael losing his hand in "Intersection." "Jaw dropping on the floor," he said. Those bombshells won't let up anytime soon. "The episode they're shooting right now, there's something equally as crazy [as the final scene in 'Intersection']."
Nikita airs 8 p.m. Fridays on The CW.

My drip tray needs are met, but because I love you, I'm always thinking about your beer needs. While I was at Lowes, I spotted this smoker box, which could easily become a driptray. Top has the requisite holes. Deboxed. It's about a foot long. The top opens for cleaning. Figure out a mounting and you're all set to go!
Thanks for posting this! Good find!
Primary: Delicious Beer Secondary: Delicious Beer, Delicious Cider Kegeratin': Delicious Draft Beer Bottled: Delicious Bottled Beer and Cider
YOU, are awesome... nice. I need a couple when I collar my chest freezer this summer and expand my # of taps!
The only problem I see is that any spilled bier on the top surface will spill over the edge of the hole filled cover making a mess down below. If that cover were cut down to fit inside the box with small "L" or 90 degree tabs, 4 of them and Tig Tacked on this would hold the cover at 1/8" below the box body. This would make for a totally dry spill tray. Just an idea as the price is great.
Bier Jagdwaffe... Bier 30 zeit.....~~=o&o>..........
Oh this is perfect. I'm going to use magnets to put it on the keezer. Won't be strong enough to set a beer on, but I can't drill so it will be good for catching drips, and removable for cleaning.
A comparable "actual" surface mount drip tray that size starts at about 40 buck and goes up from there. Nice idea olllllo, I think I may just have to steal it and claim all the credit
That is a good idea. I have one of these boxes for smoking in my grill. It works great as it's intended also! I just ordered a drip tray from barproducts.com for $14.95 - it SS, 19.5" inches long - a steal.
Wow that was easy: Two packs of magnets and two smoker boxes plus tax for a grand total of $25.44.
So....... ...if I put some wood chips in there and get them smoldering..... ....then draw a proper pint of a nice robust porter..... ...then place said pint on said smoking grid.... ...would I then be enjoying a smoked porter?????
