Kate Hudson is finally musing out loud about Muse singer Matt Bellamy,Fred perry, her beau of a few months.

But the ex-wife of rocker Chris Robinson — other former lovers include Alex Rodriguez, Owen Wilson and Lance Armstrong — isn’t feeling the marital vibe just yet.

According to UK’s The Times, the pair met a long time ago in Australia, when Hudson was still married to Robinson, and Bellamy was dating another woman. “But this time we met and we weren’t,” he said.

Marriage is “definitely not something I’m looking for,” she says. “But the divorce doesn’t put me off. I’ll just see what happens. I think a lot of times people are terrified of love and stop themselves from experiencing it. I don’t ever want to get that jaded. I do believe in love.”

“He’s lovely,” Hudson, 31, says of Bellamy, 32,American eagle, in the new issue of Elle UK. But she’s not a hardcore Muse fan just yet, she admits. “My favorite Muse song? Ha ha ha! I’m not well-versed enough on that,” she tells the mag. “I’m getting there, though. Matt and I are just learning about each other and it’s wonderful.”

Hudson and Bellamy stepped out together in June. A month later, Bellamy told Britain’s Daily Mirror that he was meeting Hudson’s parents (mom Goldie Hawn and stepdad Kurt Russell).

“Things are going great at the moment. I am very happy,” Bellamy told the paper. “It’s a little bit too soon to talk about weddings and stuff. Ask me again in a few months, though. I’ll let you know how it went with Goldie – and then who knows?”

Boucheron took the feather theme literally for one of its unique suites, called Pretty Puff, in which multicolored diamonds were sprinkled over a puffball of white swan feathers. And since versatility is a coveted attribute in haute jewelry (necklace, with or without heavily jeweled brooch, for example), the house pushed the concept to the extreme with the Curlicue five-in-one concept that by turns could be a necklace, two bracelets, a diamond hair clip, or a brooch.

At Dior, a panorama of jewels spanned the classically beautiful—significant Les Précieuses engagement rings and the new Rose Dior Bagatelle rings covered with rubies or pink sapphires—to the more far-out, with one-of-a-kind items from Victoire de Castellane’s wild Coffret de Victoire. One cuff sets a pink tourmaline rabbit in a garden of fire-opal pumpkins; on another, a burnished silver monkey can be lifted from his bejeweled perch. Bollywood earrings, twined with serpents, hang over the ear, as they’re worn in India.

Van Cleef & Arpels drew inspiration from Jules Verne for its Les Voyages Extraordinaires collection, shown at a presentation staged by Argentinean theater director Alfredo Arias. The travels spanned oceans and terra firma. Over here, diamond-encrusted polar bears and penguins swanned on hefty tourmaline glaciers; there, an elephant head paved in gray and white diamonds, dangling a 41-carat topaz, stood in for the African leg of the jaunt. Several pieces were customizable: A whale brooch could spout a jet of diamonds, thanks to integrated springs—now you see it, now you don’t. And if, after all the creatures, you didn’t care for the menagerie,ffxiv power leveling, well, there were always the classical constellations—Calliope and Andromeda, re-created to scale.

Couture week closed out in a blaze of multicolored carats that had editors scurrying from the Place Vendôme to Avenue Montaigne and back again. Not only does the new haute joaillerie day extend the ever-shrinking week by a day, it provided the big houses with a forum to preview their lavish creations for the 25th Biennale des Antiquaires, opening in Paris mid-September. This season,lanyards, flora and fauna ran rampant.

Chanel dove into its archives and surfaced with a feather theme, anchored by the articulated brooch Diane Kruger wore in her hair at Cannes (pictured); it’s an exact replica of one created by Mlle. Chanel in 1932. An articulated cuff of pavé diamond feathers was trimmed in black diamonds and set with a hidden closure. The feathery wisps were echoed elsewhere, too, as with the Comet necklace, which drapes diamonds around the nape of the neck.

Investors fear Hayward's continued presence at the company will make it harder for BP to rebuild its reputation in the United States, where 40 percent of its assets are based.

A relief well, which should permanently plug the well, is expected to be completed in the coming weeks. BP will finish placing the last bit of pipe sometime in the next week, the top U.S. official overseeing the spill response said.

"The details are being worked out," one source said.

BP's board is due to meet in London tomorrow to discuss a plan for Hayward to step down and be replaced by Bob Dudley, a senior U.S. executive who is currently managing the oil spill response operation, the sources said.

Replacing Hayward, who provoked public anger in the United States with his gaffes, including a statement that he wanted his life back, and later going sailing as oil spewed into the sea, carries a risk at this point.

As remnants of Bonnie dissipated over the Gulf on Saturday, retired Coast Guard Admiral Thad Allen, head of the U.S. spill response, said a "static kill" operation to plug the well by pumping in heavy drilling mud and possibly cement could start in three to five days.

RELIEF WELL NEARS COMPLETION

But a BP spokesman declined to repeat the company's statements from last week that the board was not even discussing Hayward's future.

BP, which has lost 40 percent of its market capitalization since the blast that caused the spill, would not comment on the reports and said Hayward remained the CEO, with the full support of the board and management.

Although vessels were returning to the site on Sunday, Allen said the storm could push back BP's mid-August target date for completing it by seven to nine days.

However, with the well sealed for over a week by a temporary cap, the board's concern has shifted to the public and market's preoccupation with Hayward's future, which is making it hard for the company to move forward,Ed hardy Shoes, the sources said.

"The static kill could go very quickly,Prada," Allen said.

LONDON/HOUSTON (Reuters) – BP Plc has decided Chief Executive Tony Hayward should step down over his handling of the Gulf of Mexico oil spill and his departure is likely to be announced in the next 36 hours, sources close to the company said on Sunday.

Though toothless in the end, Bonnie prompted oil and natural gas producers to evacuate many offshore workers, halting more than half of the oil production in U.S.-regulated areas of the Gulf and about 25 percent of gas output.

BP sealed the leak July 15 with a tight-fitting containment cap, choking off the flow of oil for the first time since an April 20 rig explosion killed 11 workers and sent crude spewing into the Gulf, soiling coastlines in five U.S. states and devastating tourism and fishery industries.

As the bad weather passed, the independent administrator running a $20 billion fund set up by BP to compensate people for financial losses from the spill said the energy giant was holding up payments to economic victims.

"I have a concern that BP is stalling claims. … I doubt they are stalling for money. It's not that. I just don't think they know the answers to the questions" from claimants, Kenneth Feinberg told reporters on Saturday in Alabama.

Thousands of businesses in Gulf Coast states have been crippled by the spill, the worst in U.S. history. BP agreed to set up the $20 billion fund under pressure from President Barack Obama.

At a town hall meeting in southern Alabama, fishermen and other business owners told Feinberg that they were frustrated and angry about what they said was a slow and complex claims process that lacks transparency.

"After today there will be no more business as usual. I learned today the depth of frustration in people here on the coast," Feinberg told the meeting.

A Transocean Ltd rig was reconnecting equipment, a BP spokeswoman said. Other vessels that had left the region Friday to get out of the path of what was Tropical Storm Bonnie were also returning.

As the boardroom drama intensified, clearing weather in the spill zone allowed work to resume on drilling a relief well to plug the leak that has been spewing oil into the Gulf for some three months.

The Macondo well, which has been sealed with a temporary cap after leaking up to 60,000 barrels per day into the sea, has not been shut off for good and if problems arise in achieving this, Dudley's reputation could also be tarnished.

Hayward has accepted it is in the best interests of BP for him to go, the sources said.

"The numbers are slightly better than expected and earnings in the second half would be quite impressive again as chip prices, a major earnings driver for Samsung, are unlikely to fall sharply."

LEE SEUNG-WOO, HEAD OF TECH TEAM, SHINYOUNG SECURITIES

"Semiconductor prices were slightly higher than expected and are expected to continue to record highs in the third quarter. Due to the rise of competition in the mobile phone sector, we expected mobile phone sales to be weaker this quarter, but they were quite high as well. The mobile phone business is quite promising and recovery in LCD prices is expected to create a positive outlook for Samsung."

JAY KIM, ANALYST, MIRAE ASSET SECURITIES

"The impact from the euro zone crisis (on demand) must have been mostly offset by resilient demand from the rest of the world, especially from the United States."

"Higher profit margins appear to have contributed to the performance in the second quarter despite relatively weak shipments. I think this brisk trend will continue through the third quarter, when I expect another 5-10 percent rise in operating profit from the second quarter."

"Profits will peak out in the third quarter and then gradually decrease from the fourth quarter…There are a few risk factors that could hit earnings, such as a slow recovery in the smartphone business, a potential surge in the won and macroeconomic conditions, but overall the picture is quite positive."

MICHAEL ON, MANAGING DIRECTOR, BEYOND ASSET MANAGEMENT, TAIPEI

"Smartphone sales are pretty good now, so the guidance on record profit is not a surprise for me. But the second half could be a problem and that's because demand in Europe might slow and hurt sales of memory chips and panels. Its profits in the second half won't be as good as the first half."

"The European market demand for finished goods is decreasing, which could hurt earnings, but it must be kept in mind that more than half of Samsung Electronics' profitability comes from component products such as chips, for which demand is still strong. I expect stronger figures for the next quarter with increased demand in chips and the successful launch of its Galaxy smartphone."

Samsung (005930.KS), also the world's largest maker of flat screen TVs, estimated its April-June operating profit at a median 5.0 trillion won ($4.09 billion),New Era, higher than a consensus forecast of 4.8 trillion won polled by Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S.

DAVID CHOI, ANALYST, KTB SECURITIES

"Earnings came out very strong,Chanel, even slightly better than the market had expected. However I am a bit cautious on the third quarter outlook, given the current European (debt) situation. A weaker euro may dampen European appetite for electronics, given that Samsung bases its product prices in dollars."

"Our six month target price on Samsung Elec is 975,000 won for now."

"Samsung's share price has some upward room with the brisk earnings prospects and despite the euro zone worries. The (euro zone crisis) impact on stock prices of technology companies appears to have faded by June."

Following are some reactions from fund managers and analysts:

SEOUL (Reuters) – Samsung Electronics, the world's No.1 memory chip maker, said it was on course to report a record quarterly profit, powered by robust sales of memory chips and flat screens in a strong consumer electronics market.

The parent company of former Russell Simmons and Kimora Lee Simmons owned brands Phat Farm and Baby Phat may be close to bankruptcy according to WSJ (Wall Street Journal).

According to the Journal, Phat Farm and Baby Phat, now owned by Kellwood Co. are in jeopardy of falling thanks to mounting debt and a bondholder that refuses to give it breathing room when it comes to paying off a reported $140 million bond.
