While presenting the award for Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy, Will Ferrell and Kristen Wiig gave a hilarious Garth And Kat-esque summary of the nominated films to an unimpressed Tommy Lee Jones.
With the help of green screens, stop-motion, toys from the film, and real-life actors, amateur filmmakers and Pixar mega-fans Jonason Pauley and Jesse Perrotta spent over two years perfectly remaking the studio's first feature-length, computer-animated film Toy Story into a life-action movie. To keep from getting their butts sued off, the pair got the Pixar blessing to share their labor of love with the world.

Over the past 35 years, Golden Krust has grown from a single restaurant in the Bronx to a Caribbean-owned Goliath with over 120 locations in North America.

Like fine timepieces, quality pens require detailed craftsmanship. That's evident in the perpetual calendar mechanism of the Anytime pen from Paolo Favaretto and Montegrappa. The pen's lid has three notched dials for the date, day, and month that provide haptic feedback when adjusted and lock into place using technology from the company's ratchet piston-fill mechanism. The pen is available in two models: Maestro, with a black resin and Delrin body with stainless steel trim, and Supremo, with a red resin body and yellow gold-plated brass trim. Both rollerball and fountain versions are available; the latter models have 18k gold nibs, and every pen regardless of model is limited to 365 numbered pieces and arrives pre-adjusted to show the date of manufacture.
Sandalwood plays a key role in many men's fragrances. Panache Santal from Oxford Hill honors this tradition. While the top note is floral, with scents of lilies and rose, the base is a masculine mix of sandalwood, cedar, and vetiver. With a heart of papyrus, cardamom, and amber, this is a versatile scent that goes on easily with roll-on application and lasts for hours.
