...HGTV's Living with Ed, actor Ed Begley Jr. offers tips for eco-living from his solar-powered house in Studio City, Calif.--see him energy-audit Cheryl Tiegs!--while Sundance airs its documentary block "The Green." MTV will set The Real World: Hollywood in a "green" house. Next year Discovery launches 24-hour eco-lifestyle channel Planet Green, a plan validated this spring when the eco-minded documentary Planet Earth became a huge hit for Discovery. "Green is part of [Discovery's] heritage," says Planet Green president Eileen O'Neill. "But as pop culture was starting to recognize...
...There were some actual stars in the ballroom - O.K., so there was Ed Begley Jr. and a bunch of guys who looked like Kenny Rogers.

Harvard's Steven Pinker looks into the mystery of consciousness and, along with a panel of philosophers and neuroscientists, explores how the jabbering of 100 billion neurons creates our sense that we exist at all.

...Hanks trumpeted its arrival. Ed Begley Jr. mourned its passing. When you realize that the film is narrated by a liberal President of the U.S. (well, Martin Sheen, who plays one on TV), you may suspect that the electric car was another ego trip for Hollywood's preachy leftists. But even Mel Gibson, no liberal, touts the vehicle's benefits. And when you hear the litany--it's clean, quiet and rechargeable at home, and, best of all, it doesn't rely on a product found in some of the least stable, most despotic nations on earth--you start thinking...
...Year, a playmaking guard who bore the brunt of the scoring load for the Quakers the year before. Michael Jordan led his 1999-00 Penn squad to a perfect 14-0 Ivy season, pouring in 16 points a game and dishing out five assists per contest. Tim Begley meant much the same to the 2004-05 Quakers team, contributing 14 points, five assists and five boards per game en route to a 13-1 league mark...
