Robert, kristen planning cannes getaway
Twilight star couple Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart are reportedly planning a vacation in Cannes.
The actors have booked a £5,000 a-night suite at the Hotel Du Cap but once they are done there, they will be off on a camping tour of the local vineyards, reported Sun online.
“Robert is going to be in Cannes on promotional duties and is taking Kristen along. They have their eye on doing a tour of the local museums, like the Picasso one in Antibes, and Renoir’s house,” a source said.
“But they are also going to go down to Provence and visit the vineyards there. You can camp in the grounds of these massive chateaus and they have decided they need some ‘normal living’,” it added.

Memory to be restored by microchip?
Washington: Scientists believe that a revolutionary new implant that can help restore memory in people who suffered a stroke or brain injury could start human trials in the next two years.
Researchers from the University of Southern California and North Carolina’s Wake Forest University among others believe they will see a memory device being implanted in human volunteers within two years and it may be made available to patients in five to 10 years. “I never thought I’d see this in my lifetime,” said Ted Berger, professor of biomedical engineering at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles.
The scientists believe they have cracked how long-term memories are made, stored and retrieved and how to replicate this process in brains that are damaged, particularly by stroke or localised injury, CNN reported. — PTI
