2:10 Bookhabit

Authors fed up with publishers' rejection slips, and readers hunting for new material will welcome the launch of Kiwi online publisher bookhabit.com. The website has been developed to enable authors to self-publish their works, for free, and in doing so contribute to an online library of e-books accessible by readers all over the world.
It's an idea with universal appeal, and dreamt up by co-founder Claire Tanner.

2:20 Academy Awards

Heavy wind and buckets of rain haven't managed to put a serious damper on the 80th Academy Awards, Hollywood's glitziest show of the year which has just gotten underway at the Kodak Theatre in Los Angeles.
While thousands of fans have packed the bleachers and streets around the theatre, inside the big screen's biggest stars will in the next couple of hours hear who amongst their midst is named best of the best.
Many will be relieved just to be there, given a fortnight ago the Writers' strike was threatening to scupper the event, as it did the celebrity bash at the Golden Globes, which stars refused to cross the picket lines to attend.
So the buzz and air of expectation is already strong, before any of the Oscars have been handed out!
Our correspondent Oliver Barnett.
