<p><a href="http://www.trendznow.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Alexander-Calder.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-6426" title="Alexander Calder" src="http://www.trendznow.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Alexander-Calder-300x134.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="134" /></a>The work of Alexander Calder, the American sculpture famous for inventing moving mobiles, has had his work celebrated with a Google doodle.  Alexander Calder (July 22, 1898 – November 11, 1976) was an American sculptor and artist most famous for inventing the mobile sculptures. In addition to mobile and stable sculpture, Alexander Calder also created paintings, lithographs, toys, tapestry, jewelry and household objects.</p>
<p>Calder created a sculpture called WTC Stabile (also known as Bent Propeller), which in 1971 was installed at the entrance of the World Trade Center&#8217;s North Tower. When Battery Park City opened, the sculpture was moved to Vesey and Church Streets.[14] It stood in front of 7 World Trade Center when it was destroyed on September 11, 2001.</p>
<p>Calder died on November 11, 1976, shortly after opening a major retrospective show at the Whitney Museum in New York. He had been working on a third plane, entitled Salute to Mexico, when he died.</p>

Von D (real name: Katherine von Drachenberg), 28, confirmed the news on Twitter on Thursday. &#8220;I guess the &#8216;kat&#8217; is outta the bag, eh?&#8221; she wrote to James. &#8220;Thank you for all the wonderful, loving congratulations from you all.. Overwhelmed with joy right now!&#8221;</p>
<p><a href="http://www.trendznow.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/phpThumb_generated_thumbnailjpg.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-5527" title="Kat von D and Jesse James" src="http://www.trendznow.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/phpThumb_generated_thumbnailjpg-300x240.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="240" /></a></p>
<p>This will be <em>Monster Garage </em>star James&#8217; fourth marriage, whose exes include Karla James, porn actress Janine Lindemulder and, most famously, <strong>Sandra Bullock. </strong>Never-married von D (who was previously linked to Motley Crue&#8217;s Nikki Sixx) was coy about marriage buzz on Wednesday at the opening night premiere party for the Los Angeles Art Show. &#8220;I can go on the record and say there&#8217;s no one else for me,&#8221; she told reporters coyly of James. &#8220;He&#8217;s the one.&#8221;</p>
<p>As for James, 41, he Tweeted to his love in Spanish on Wednesday night. English translation: &#8220;I would like to be with you at this time. Even if only it could take your hand, as that first night.&#8221;</p>
<p>Earlier in the month, he wrote of von D: &#8220;I have never felt so loved! I&#8217;m the luckiest MoFo in the world! 48 hours away from you feels like a year&#8230;you will never be anything but beautiful to me.&#8221;</p>
<p>The fellow reality stars met about six years ago. &#8220;He had his show on Discovery,&#8221; she said in a radio interview. &#8220;That&#8217;s how we met. I was looking for some advice when I first started <em>Miami Ink</em>.&#8221;</p>
<p>James&#8217; six-year marriage to Bullock, 46, famously ended with the revelation of his affair with numerous women &#8212; including Michelle &#8220;Bombshell&#8221; McGee, a stripper with a similar plethora of tattoos.</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ve got a lot of respect for Jesse and how he handled it,&#8221; she added of James&#8217; conduct during the scandal.</p>
<p>At Wednesday&#8217;s art event in L.A. von D told <strong>UsMagazine.com</strong>: &#8220;I think our relationship has matured so much and matures every day and grows. I am not ashamed of anything. I am really excited about it. Everyday we grow stronger.&#8221;</p>

Cézanne can be said to form the bridge between late 19th century Impressionism and the early 20th century&#8217;s new line of artistic enquiry, Cubism. The line attributed to both Matisse and Picasso that Cézanne &#8220;is the father of us all&#8221; cannot be easily dismissed. Cézanne&#8217;s work demonstrates a mastery of design, colour, tone, composition and draftsmanship.</p>

The 46-year-old host of The Cougar and Curb Your Enthusiasm actress received an eight-karat diamond ring from 27-year-old concert promoter Omar &#8220;Slim&#8221; White over the holidays. &#8220;We did get engaged on Dec. 26,&#8221; Fox told People magazine Tuesday. &#8220;And we are very happy!&#8221;</p>
<p><a href="http://www.trendznow.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/vivica-slimm-mn.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-5309" title="vivica-slimm-mn" src="http://www.trendznow.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/vivica-slimm-mn-233x300.jpg" alt="" width="233" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>&#8220;She is over the moon &#8211; so excited, so in love. She got the ring while they were staying at Ritz-Carlton, South Beach, over the holidays. They are both eager to start their lives together and have a family,&#8221; the source said. &#8220;She is so excited; it is heartwarming to be around her.&#8221;</p>
<p>As for the age difference, Fox has no concerns as she and White plan to have a baby this year.&#8221;I&#8217;m very fertile, so I don&#8217;t think that I would have a problem,&#8221; Fox told Williams. Fox and White have been dating for more than a year, CBSNews.com reported. This will be Fox&#8217;s second marriage. She and singer Christopher Harvest split in 2002.</p>

Get here Womensday2010 special WomensDayGreetings, WomensDayQuotes and WomensDayPoem.It is a major day of global celebration for the economic, political and social achievements of women. WomensDayCelebration &#8211; Started as a Socialist political event, the holiday blended in the culture of many countries (primarily Russia and the countries of former Soviet bloc). In some celebrations, the day lost its political flavour, and became simply an occasion for men to express their love to the women around them in a way somewhat similar to Mother&#8217;s Day and St Valentine&#8217;s Day mixed together.</p>
<p>In others, however, the political and human rights theme as designated by the United Nations runs strong, and political and social awareness of the struggles of women worldwide are brought out and examined in a hopeful manner.The IWD is also celebrated as the first spring holiday in the Northern Hemisphere as the first day of March is considered the first day of the spring season.

<p>LANGSTON HUGHES<br />

<p>ERMA BOMBECK<br />
It takes a lot of courage to show your dreams to someone else.</p>

<p><strong>Woman’s Day Poem</strong></p>
<p>To touch the caterpillar-curve of a baby’s thigh,</p>
<p>Breathe in guileless oxygen,</p>
<p>Breathe out giddy, unshackled glee</p>
<p>To see a sunrise of pink-spun sugar,</p>
<p>Silken sunsets the color of cantaloupes,</p>
<p>To mouth a mango’s flesh,</p>
<p>Taste a plum’s orgasmic juice,</p>
<p>To bask in an approving smile,</p>
<p>But mostly, my dear,my ingenue,</p>
<p>To suck in sharp, quick spikes of choice,</p>
<p>Ether’s own freedom.</p>

The first day of the lunar New Year 2010 falls on the 14th day of February.To the Chinese, it is the start of the Golden Tiger Year.  The Tiger is the third sign in the cycle of  Chinese Zodiac, which consists of 12 animal signs.  It is a sign of courage. This fearless and fiery fighter is revered by the ancient Chinese as the sign that wards off the three main disasters of a household: fire, thieves and ghosts.  On New Year&#8217;s day itself, it is beneficial to celebrate, to be happy, to have smiling faces, and to refrain from scowling, quarreling, or criticizing anyone.</p>
<p>People born in this sign are Courageous, active, and self-assured.  Optimistic, passionate and independent. Rebellious, dynamic, and unpredictable. Quick tempered but considerate.  Affectionate but careless.  The Tiger is a natural born leader and symbolizes power, passion and daring. The Year of the Tiger only comes around every 12 years, so Trader Vic&#8217;s is celebrating the Chinese New Year with a bang, offering Tiger-branded items such as Tiger chopsticks, Tea Lights and Sake Cups. Specially-priced menu</p>
