A statement from Julia Roberts, global ambassador for the Alliance for Clean Cookstoves:
World Pneumonia Day is Saturday, Nov. 12, 2011

This World Pneumonia Day I’m speaking out as a mother about the leading killer of children under the age of 5.

Pneumonia kills about 1.4 million young children annually, 99% of whom die in developing countries. That’s one child dying every 20 seconds.

I was inspired to join the Global Alliance for Clean Cookstoves because its core mission is saving lives – especially children’s lives. Of the 2 million people killed each year from diseases caused by toxic smoke from dirty stoves and open cooking fires, about half are young children who die from acute lower respiratory infections, most commonly pneumonia.

Cooking shouldn’t kill, but the sad reality is that it does, and a disproportionate amount of the victims are children at the household hearth with their mother as she cooks.

I believe this is a particularly cruel injustice. But it is one that can be stopped.

ou don’t have to be a movie expert to know Untitled Snow White Project is a terrible name for a movie. But that was all we had for the fairy tale adaptation starring Julia Roberts and Lilly Collins. Not anymore.

We finally have a title — Mirror, Mirror. Huh? Could we go back to Untitled Snow White Project? Maybe we just need some time to get used to the new title.

At least it doesn’t have “Snow White” in the title. No doubt it’s already going to be confusing with two Snow White movies coming out within months of each other. Mirror, Mirror opens March 16, while the competing Snow White and the Huntsman with Kristen Stewart and Charlize Theron opens June 1.

Good thing the differences go beyond the movies’ titles. Snow White and the Huntsman is more of an action-adventure (and, dare we say, looks more like Lord of the Rings than Disney), while Mirror, Mirror offers a more fanciful take on the fairy tale. Still, it’s almost a sure thing that these two movies will be going after the same audience.

From julia-r.com We want to wish all of you to have a great and frightening halloween…even if you don’t celebrate it, enjoy the power of witches and pumkings, LOL.

I had a wonderful time hanging out with Tarsem Singh today, talking about his latest action epic Immortals, when the conversation steered towards his as-yet-untitled Snow White movie, which stars Julia Roberts as the evil queen. He gave us some juicy inside details about the plot, the potential rating, and even some potentially SPOILER HEAVY descriptions of the film’s ending. The movie isn’t set to come out until next year, so we’ll warn you when the bigger revelations are coming towards the end of this excerpt from our upcoming interview.

CraveOnline: I have to ask. How is ‘Snow White’ coming?

Tarsem Singh: Awesome. It was much, much, much, much easier to do, because Julia [Roberts] was so on my side and everyone’s terrified of going against [her]. So all my fights were taken care of. I wanted to make a family film, and they asked me if I wanted to make it edgy, and I said, “No.”
