“ The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo ” is one of this season’s buzziest movies, as hotly anticipated by its partisans as any installment of “Harry Potter” or “Twilight.” Like Harry and “Twilight’s” Bella Swan, the title character of Stieg Larsson’s best-selling novels has grown into a literary cult figure of freakish devotion.

The first full trailer for “ The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn — Part 1 ” has been released. No, this is not another teaser where we mostly see the back of Kristen Stewart’s head as she walks down the aisle. (Although, for the record, we get that again here, too.) This is two minutes and 30 seconds of the lovely pasty-whiteness of the Swan-Cullen wedding, hot and heavy honeymoon action between Bella and Edward (some of which we saw during the Comic-Con “Breaking Dawn” panel ) and, yes, Bella’s freakishly expanding baby bump.

But it’s just an illustration! Drats! You didn’t think Summit Entertainment was going to give that image away just yet, did you? Obviously by now we all know what’s coming in the The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn, Part 1. Yes, Edward (Robert Pattinson) and Bella (Kristen Stewart) get married, and when people get married they traditionally wear a wedding dress. EW now has an exclusive look at what Bella looks like in her dress. Thing is, it’s only in illustration form at the moment since the images in question come from Stephenie Meyer’s new book, The Twilight Saga: The Official Illustrated Guide.

Around 8 a.m. Friday, after Bella, a lowline Angus cow, spent a freezing cold night in labor in her stall, Ben-a miniature panda cow-was born. Ben was born in a farm east of Campion, Colorado, and is one of only 24 in the world. “We’ll get him bundled…

Geometry and shiny metal surfaces in a new magnetic jewelry line Science meets art in Klik Klik , Al Kelly and and Kellar Williams’ new magnetic jewelry kit. Setting themselves apart from similar brands that came before them (like Magnetik Distractions and the gift set ), Kelly and Williams take form as seriously as function, introducing new shapes and perfectly-engineered magnetism for a playfully nerdy accessory with all the geometric-pattern appeal of Vena Cava. Each kit comes with 300 nickel-plated neodymium magnets in three different shapes—216 polished metal spheres, 56 cubes and 28 wands to be exact. Mix and match at will, or follow one of the provided patterns, to create custom bracelets, anklets, necklaces, chokers, armbands, rings and more. When Klik Klik’s Brooklyn-based masterminds stopped by our offices recently they explained that part of their goal is to empower creativity by making it fun for people to design their own patterns. The instructional posters help out with a little inspiration, showing six design suggestions, ranging from easy to more difficult and requiring varying numbers of the metal pieces. For those who want more, there are over 500 designs available at Klik Klik’s online gallery , with step-by-step videos detailing how to make the Bella, Gemma and Dahlia bracelets. While the concept came easily to Kelly and Williams, the real hard work was the time-consuming process of sourcing the right supply of metal finishes and strengths to find the best combination possible. Williams describes their path as one mostly about education, involving extensive testing to see which shapes worked well with others and which looked most appealing. Ultimately, the pair emphasize that the most important part was “getting the highest quality magnets.” See more of Klik Klik’s stylish designs on their site where kits sell for $65.
