The Green Book
READ
The Green Book. Launched
last month, the eco-friendly book is a compilation of personal
insights and stories from
Hollywood’s
green rangers – celebrities and musicians who have embraced
eco-friendly living and incorporated green habits into their
lifestyles.
Better yet, the book also offers more than 700 easy, everyday tips on
how you can do the same.
Owen Wilson, Cameron Diaz, Ellen DeGeneres, Justin Timberlake, Martha
Stewart, Robert Redford and Will Ferrell count among its celeb
contributors.
LISTEN
to Prince’s newest
album release Planet Earth. The latest effort by
His Purple Highness marks his 24th studio album and has
been mostly hush-hush, with little information released about its
guest collaborators or track list. Could the album be the pint-sized
musician’s ode to Mother Earth? We’re just guessing.
GET
with the Potter
program. Harry Potter casts an enchantment spell over the world this
month with the release of the fifth movie of the franchise Harry
Potter and the Order of the Phoenix as well as that of the seventh
and last book of the series, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.
As Potterheads the world over contemplate the boy wizard’s final
chapter, what can those who can’t be less interested in the entire
Harry Potter hoopla do? Brace themselves for the Harry Potter
theme park in Orlando, currently in the works and due for completion
in 2009.
SWOON
over the Prada
LG Phone. Seems designer labels on your back and your feet aren’t
enough any more. The first-Prada branded mobile, released in the U.S.
two months ago, is everything you’d expect from the high-fashion brand
– sleek, slim, black, and, of course, boasting a hefty price
tag of US$849.
SHOP
at one of three
destinations holding annual shopping sales in the next two months.
Yes, hot on the heels of the Great Singapore Sale and the recently
concluded Jakarta Great Sale, are the Dubai Summer Surprises, the Hong
Kong Shopping Festival’ (both run from now until Aug. 31) and
Malaysia’s Mega Sale, through Sept. 2. Pick your favorite.
WATCH
the highly
anticipated The Simpsons Movie. Details about the plot are
still scant at press time, but anyone who’s knows the Simpsons knows
not knowing what they get up to next is always part of the fun.
If you like your action live, not animated, opt for the high octane
Live Free or Die Hard where Bruce Willis reprises his role as
tough cop John McClane. This time round, the reluctant hero takes on
an Internet-based-terrorist group hell bent on annihilating the Land
of the Free.
