...Funny People's subpar returns dealt another body blow to its distributor, Universal Pictures. Big releases like Land of the Lost, Brüno, Duplicity and State of Play have all underperformed this year.

Chu wants to spend $280 million to create eight new research-and-development labs, staffed by scientists from a variety of areas, to work on clean-energy solutions. Called "energy innovation hubs," they would be patterned after AT&T Bell Laboratories, the famed research centers where Chu did much of the work that won him a Nobel Prize in Physics.
