Do You Want to See Arnold Schwarzenegger in Another Terminator Movie?

Becky Kirsch — Wed, 27 Apr 2011 10:44:13 PDT

It's been over 20 years since Arnold Schwarzenegger said "I'll be back" in Terminator 2, and as it turns out, he wasn't kidding. The former California governor is on board for a new film in the Terminator franchise, which is currently being shopped around to different movie studios.

Schwarzenegger hasn't been shy about his interest in getting back to acting, but it's hard to imagine the now 63-year-old riding around on a motorcycle clad in leather (especially since The Terminator was a robot who wouldn't age). That said, I have a feeling Schwarzenegger's return would make for a bigger film in the franchise than, say, Terminator: Salvation. How do you feel about this news - do you want to see Schwarzenegger in another Terminator movie?

The Arnold Prank Calls Gateway

GiggleSugar — Thu, 08 Nov 2007 02:00:00 PST

Everyone knows what Arnold Schwarzenegger sounds like, right? Negative. This Gateway computer customer service rep doesn't seem to realize she's talking to the Terminator. I mean, if she's not tipped off by his voice, perhaps his odd questions and answers give him away? Sigh.

Brilliant or Baffling: San Francisco Airport Opens Yoga Room

Emily Co — Fri, 27 Jan 2012 00:15:26 PST

If you ever happen to stop by the San Francisco Airport, you might want to check out its new yoga room, which officially opened yesterday. The room, available from 4:30 a.m. to 12:30 a.m., is located in SFO's newly renovated Terminal 2, and only passengers will get to try it out - it's stationed past the security checkpoint. If yoga is not your thing and you still want to meditate, check out the Berman reflection room, which is a "center for quiet self-reflection and meditation."

What do you think of this new perk?

So You Wanna Drop Your T-Mobile Contract?

Emily Co — Thu, 24 Mar 2011 13:30:57 PDT

Turns out I'm not the only one who is worried about the AT&T and T-Mobile merger. About 71 percent of you said in a recent poll that you had concerns, and many of you chimed in with your misgivings. Here's what some of you said:

"I left AT&T quite a while back thanks to their horrible service (customer and tech both) to move to T-Mobile, and have never regretted it. Until this week. Now I guess I need to look at Verizon." - z0rkzer0 .
"I have been with T-Mobile for many years. Whenever I have tried another carrier I have always been disappointed and end up coming back to TM. Not even the iPhone managed to make me stray and so I am really scared to see how this merger is going to affect the quality of service I have come to expect with TM." - kindo1313

I'm right there with you readers. My worries for how this move will affect the quality of my wireless carrier got me thinking about whether I can switch out of T-Mobile before the merger takes effect. According to an article from Forbes, it still isn't clear if T-Mobile customers will be charged a termination penalty if they decide to leave the carrier before their contract is up. But something you might be relieved to find out is that it's illegal to change the terms of any prior contract with T-Mobile even after the firm joins AT&T. If you find a "materially adverse" change, such as a price increase, you can dispute that with the carrier and perhaps even break your contract without paying any fees.

The merger won't go into effect until a year later and I'm pretty glad that my contract ends January next year. Hmmm, is it just me or does the iPhone from Verizon look quite tempting all of a sudden?

Katie Henry — Fri, 09 Dec 2011 14:35:13 PST

Blake Lively wore a vivid green Burberry Prorsum jacket for her visit to NYC's brand-new Apple store earlier today. The Grand Central Terminal location, Apple's largest outpost to date, opened with a crowd of thousands eager to get a peek inside. Blake was one of the lucky shoppers allowed to check out the techy gadgets like the iPad 2. She might be considering a holiday purchase for loved ones, or even picking up the coveted tablet for boyfriend Ryan Reynolds. Blake and Ryan spent a romantic weekend together near Park City, UT, over the Thanksgiving break, but for now Blake's shooting Gossip Girl on location in NYC while he's wrapping up a big-screen project in Boston.

Hayden Christensen Is All Smiles as He Picks Rachel Bilson Up From the Airport

Lindsay Miller — Wed, 21 Dec 2011 10:26:42 PST

Hayden Christensen looked holiday ready in a red plaid scarf last night as he picked up Rachel Bilson at the airport in Toronto. Rachel stopped to snap a photo with a fan as she made her way through the terminal. Outside, a gentlemanly Hayden helped load Rachel's luggage before the two drove off together. Hayden grew up just outside Toronto, so it seems Rachel may be in town to spend the holidays with him and his family. The trip north will be a well-deserved break for Rachel after a busy 2011. This year, she made her return to TV with a starring role on CW's Hart of Dixie and also launched a fun and affordable footwear line, ShoeMint. Rachel brings her signature style to the new collection, and her fashion sense has her in the running for best celebrity street style of 2011!

Travel Tips For the Upcoming Holiday Weekend

Kristy Korcz — Mon, 19 Dec 2011 16:45:22 PST

Traveling this holiday? Christmas Eve falls on a Saturday this year, which makes one big mess at the airport. If you can't take a car or a train, be sure to check out these packing and travel tips to make your life easier while booking flights, getting through security checkpoints, and beyond.

Booking Flights

TripIt - Once signed up for the free service, forward travel confirmation emails to TripIt, which will automatically create a master itinerary of an upcoming trip accessible through the web or a mobile device. The itineraries even include the tidbits we seem to forget like weather updates, local maps, and directions.
Google Flight Search - Book that plane ticket before prices rise any further! Google's flight search engine incorporates travel basics like price point, maximum number of connections, and preferred airline with an easy-to-use interface.
Hotel Tonight - If there are too many relatives in one house, scan the last-minute hotel deals at Hotel Tonight for a chic getaway at a discounted price. Every day three hotels in a city reveal their discounted rates starting at noon, and you then have until 2 a.m. to book the deal and take advantage of a peaceful room.
My TSA - Can homemade fruit cakes go through security? How early should you show up to the airport for a flight on the eve of Thanksgiving? Answer the pressing travel questions that could otherwise cause delays or stress by adding the TSA's free iOS app to your device. The app's airport security line estimator may become the most crucial feature on your phone when planning your airport arrival.
HearPlanet ($3) - Take the time to discover the cultural side of your holiday destination. This interactive app highlights attractions in over 300,000 locations and uses geolocation features so that you don't miss any of the nearby fun, plus it's a great excuse to get out of the house and move around in fresh air.
GasBuddy - Hitting the open road instead of the air? Use the free GasBuddy app to locate the cheapest fuel on the interstate. Show your fellow travelers some love and share the low-price gas station you discover within the app.

Gadget Essentials

iPad or Tablet - If you have the luxury of spending upwards of $500 on a tablet, it's probably the only gadget you'll need to tote during travel season since it can hold your ebooks, surf the Internet, and keep you connected.
eReader - If you're sans tablet, pack up your favorite ereader. Whether it's the latest Kindle or the new Nook Simple Touch, you can read the entire Game of Thrones series without all the paper weight.
Compact laptop - Though the MacBook Air is arguably the most popular lightweight laptop out there, there's plenty of compact PCs and ultrabooks to choose from as well.
Chargers - If you're toting all these gadgets, you're going to (obviously) need some chargers to keep things juiced. Thankfully, many airlines are offering charging stations in the terminal and even seat-side outlets on board, so you can stay 100 percent charged throughout your trip.
Headphones - Keep the roar of 35,000 feet at bay with some nice sound-isolating headphones. If you're going over-the-ear, consider Skullcandy Aviators ($149), which offer great sound and deep bass and are even comfy for those geeks who wear glasses.

The Beckhams Jet to London For Harper's Very First Holiday

Katie Henry — Mon, 19 Dec 2011 01:30:52 PST

David and Victoria Beckham and their four kids departed out of LAX's international terminal Friday night on a flight headed to London. The family of six touched down in the UK yesterday with little Harper snuggled safely and warmly inside her baby carrier. The Beckhams are in England for their annual holiday trip to spend time with relatives and famous friends like Gordon Ramsay. Next year David and Victoria may not have to travel far if rumors of their move to Paris are true. David has yet to say if, and where, he'll be playing soccer in 2012, though many think it's a possibility Becks could sign with France's St. Germain club. No matter what his decision, it's bound to be a special holiday for David, Victoria, Cruz, Romeo, and Brooklyn as they prep for Harper's first Christmas. From career highs to the arrival of Harper, it's been a huge year for the family, so we took a look back at the Beckhams' cutest pictures of 2011 as part of our Best of 2011 coverage!
