Actress Angelina Jolie and her right leg arrive for the 84th Academy Awards on Feb. 26.
By Kurt Schlosser
When Angelina Jolie struck her much-lampooned pose at the Oscars in February, little did we know that months later we'd still be up in arms about stars' legs on the red carpet.
An informal survey of?entertainment slideshows?-- and other places on the Internet where attractive body parts are showcased -- reveals that legs attached to female celebrities appear to be stepping out more than normal of late.
Certainly showing a little skin or a lot of leg is nothing new, especially in Hollywood. Jolie made news for going a step (sorry, these puns are?way too?easy) further when her gam got glam and leapt 2 feet out of her black gown.
Now every star in a dress with a high slit is being compared to Jolie, even if they're just standing there with no intention?of turning an appendage into an Internet meme. Well, except for?model Anja Rubik and her hip bone at the Costume Institute Gala earlier this month. That's no ordinary pose.
Check out this random sampling of a few well-known celebrities. Are these outfits over the top? I'm no dressmaker, but the physics of being able to walk while wearing a long gown demands that that gown have a little give. Jolie went beyond the give part and took her pose up a notch. So critical style eyes are now looking below the waist of some of Hollywood's biggest stars to find the copycats.

The high slit is poised to rule the red carpet until the first snow flies up skirts next winter. In an era of trout pout and side boob (hi Miley!), there's little use fighting it and demanding that stars put on some @$%*! clothes. (If only?you used symbols to swear at us in the comments ... like the old days ... when women covered?up!)?
ZZ Top said it best: "She's got legs, she knows how to use them."

Golf is one of the few sports in which players can compete against themselves, along with paddleball and seeing how many potatoes they can eat. Put yourself to the test with this Groupon.
$29 for a golf-outing package for two (up to a $58 total value)
$55 for a golf-outing package for four (up to a $116 total value)
With both options, golfers traverse Spruce Ridge Golf Course?s 9-hole layout twice for an 18-hole round.
Spruce Ridge?s nine-hole course craftily incorporates 200 acres of Wyoming County countryside into a scenic, 3,131-yard tapestry of fairways and greens. Throughout the round, golfers aim drives down gently rolling fairways, on the edges of which loom undesirable destinations including knee-high fescue grass, ponds, and headquarters for earthworm Mafiosi. Water hazards complicate passage on four holes, including the par 4 seventh, where two ponds hug the left side and contribute to its reputation as the course?s most difficult hole. After rounds, golfers can snag a hot dog at the concession stand to ward off hunger or use as an unconventional putter.
Even the rare popular, well-adjusted person might lack a confidante to enable their own shameful, suppressed neuroses. Craft the perfect imaginary friend by choosing one of the fictitious figments from Column A and pairing it with one of the memorable monikers from Column B:
Column A:
? Alligator in a top hat
? A big mound of hair with dewy, paper-plate-size eyeballs
? Empowering female role model who's as quick with her wit as she is with her dagger
? Lively, animate teddy bear stuffed tightly with cash
? A clown, for any child who is still entertained by clowns
Column B:
? Mr. Huggencuddle
? Crunchy Clementine
? Sheriff Bubbles
? Bond? James Bond? New Stepdad, James Bond
? The Glumpster

Judge Lucy Koh, presiding over the courtroom battle 'twixt Apple and Samsung has ordered that both companies slim down the bundle of litigation so its easy for juries to understand. The docket currently contains 16 patent violations, six trademark issues, five "trade dress" claims and an antitrust matter -- which her Honor Judge Koh described as a "cruel and unusual punishment" for a jury. If both companies can't get over a table and produce a Cliffs Notes edition of their global patent battle, then she'll postpone the trial date until 2013.

Upon its debut, the Xperia Play suffered from a lack of game titles that were compatible with its unique built-in gamepad. While the selection has improved considerably since its inception, the question remains: wouldn't it be nice if the handset supported any Android game you threw at it? Wonder no longer, because that's exactly what GameKeyboard 2.0 brings to the table. Yes, the app requires root access, but most importantly, it allows users to map on-screen touch controllers to the Xperia Play's physical gamepad. While it's slightly cumbersome to setup for the first time, anybody who has ever configured an emulator with a USB game controller will feel right at home. GameKeyboard 2.0 sells for $2.49 in the Play Store, and if you'd like a quick overview of how it all works, just hop the break for a video. Those who proceed with the download will also benefit from written instructions (for both root access and configuration) in the xda-developers forums.
[Thanks, Dreb]

Many in the Windows Media Center community were afraid that Windows 8 would mark the end of Media Center, while others thought it would be like Notepad -- present, but unchanged. In the end both were wrong as Microsoft announced Media Center would be available as an add-on to Windows 8. Until now though, we didn't know exactly how that process would work. Steven Sinofsky outlined on the Building Windows 8 blog how users will be able to use Add Features to Windows 8 in Control Panel and purchase the same great Media Center experience that was included in Windows 7 Premium and Pro. The price is still unannounced but is expect to be "in line with marginal costs" -- whatever that means. The price paid will cover the royalties for the required codecs to support broadcast TV and DVD playback (DVDs still won't play in Media Player). One codec that will be supported in all version of Windows 8, but will require the computer maker to license the codec directly, is Dolby Digital Plus. So yeah, something else that was included in Windows 7 for free. We're glad it's there, but wish we'd get something new for the new premium price. Like most, we'll probably hold on to our Windows 7 HTPC a little bit longer.

Remember that funky beat your buddy at work shared with you over Google+? Don't bother digging through their post history, Mountain View's music service has you covered with its new "Shared with me" auto-playlist. This self-maintaining list keeps track of all the songs friends and colleagues send your way, making it easy to hunt down a catchy tune your brother sent you, or to endlessly ridicule a coworker's awful sense of sound. The playlist not only shows the track, artist, duration and price, but also a preview of the Google+ post (and a thumbnail of its author) that you scored the shared song from in the first place. Looking for lost music? Just take a look at your auto-playlists.
