'The Help' is a worthy adaptation of a powerful book, NPR's hilarious 'Wait Wait ... Don't Tell Me!' looks back at the year's top stories, 'Christmas at St. Olaf' on PBS celebrates the 100th anniversary of a beautiful musical tribute, and more top picks.
Based on the big 2009 bestseller by Kathryn Stockett, The Help winds a tale of black maids and their white mistresses in the starkly racist South of the 1960s. The intense emotional connection between white children and the maids who raised them, and these same children's later disdain, is played out against the backdrop of a burgeoning civil rights movement. There are terrific performances from Viola Davis and Octavia Spencer, whose presence Monitor critic Peter Rainer describes as "ennobling without falsifying that nobility with sentimentality."
Christmas in Yellowstone, on PBS Christmas Day, celebrates the season in our nation's most iconic national park. Part of the "Nature" series, this is a reprise of one of the show's most elegant and visually rich documentaries.
Christmas at St. Olaf, on PBS Dec. 20, presents the five college choirs of this Northfield, Minn., college in a soaring musical celebration of the Christ story. The hundreds of voices joined together to mark the 100th anniversary of this annual tradition give the event immense power and joy.

Some options you may have thought of (London, Greece), but other lesser-known options stretch the imagination ? Istria, Croatia, and the Virunga Volcanoes in Central Africa. The photos accompanying the Best of the World 2012 will make you want to book that plane ticket sooner rather than later.
Wait Wait ... Don't Tell Me! ? the hilarious, witty, and occasionally even educational Peabody Award-winning NPR radio show ? arrives on BBC America Dec. 23 at 8 p.m. This special will look back at the year's top stories from both a British and US perspective, and also includes contests and celebrity guests from both sides of the pond. The show was taped live on Dec. 2 in Chicago.
Designing duo
"American Masters" features an intense look at married couple Charles and Ray Eames (Charles & Ray Eames: The Architect and the Painter) ? a pair who put joy back into the world by helping to shape American design in the 20th century. The show airs on PBS Dec. 19 at 10 p.m.

Salut a tous!?Launching today at the LeWeb 2011 conference in Paris is the long-awaited SoundTracking Android app. What makes this app special is that goes above and beyond the SoundTracking iPhone app -- taking full advantage of Android capabilities in order to integrate popular music services Spotify and Rdio (for users of Spotify and Rdio). Which means, yes, you can now listen to full songs on SoundTracking instead just of 30 second iTunes snippets. Hallelujah.? The SoundTracking app itself is visually stunning, and frictionless; Because of the back button on Android, you longer have to manually switch between apps if you want to post or listen to a song. SoundTracking founder Steve Jang tells me that Android was his number one user request. At number two? Spotify integration.Source: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/S0BFGGohGz8/

Apple?s newly launched iCloud service doesn?t actually live in the clouds; it requires some serious data-grinding horsepower. The company has a facility in Maiden, N.C. and now there?s word that it?s looking at a second location, in Oregon, as efforts are made to further expand its data munching capabilities.
The news comes from OregonLive, which reveals via ?two people with direct knowledge of Apple?s plans? that the potential new data center would live in Prineville, roughly a quarter-mile south of a server farm that Facebook established there earlier this year. The report mentions that Oregon has become an increasingly popular location for such things, thanks in part to its ?mild weather and relatively low power costs.? The big draw, however, is tax breaks, as is often the case with such things.
Apple hasn?t formally commented on the development, though the company had a team checking out the Facebook facility as recently as this past summer. Oregon has been a potential data center site for a little while now, though Apple?s plans for the region were held up due to power constraints.
The company now has an option to buy 160 acres of land from Oregon???s Crook County, an option that expires at the end of the month.

New York ? Google's Chrome browser is gaining ground, while Mozilla's Firefox is flailing
Last week, it was reported that Google's rapidly rising Chrome browser had surpassed Firefox for the first time in popularity. According to research firm StatCounter Global Stats, Chrome accounted for 25.96 of the global browser usage in November, second to Internet Explorer. That's up from just 13.35 percent a year ago. Mozilla's Firefox had 25.23 percent of the marketshare in November, down from 31.17 last November and part of a slow but steady decline. That decline, along with uncertainty surrounding a key revenue-generating partnership Mozilla has with Google, has many asking if Firefox is doomed:
Firefox is definitely in trouble: "It hasn't been a good year for Mozilla and its flagship product, the Firefox browser," says Ed Bott at ZD Net. It's lost significant market share to Google Chrome and some important execs have left. The company also relies on a partnership with Google for much of its revenue, and that partnership is now in question. In an age where consumers want their browser to be the same one that their apps rely on, Google and Microsoft could well push Firefox into irrelevance.
"Firefox faces uncertain future as Google deal apparently ends"
And Mozilla has made some poor decisions: In an attempt to keep up, Mozilla has gone from version 3 to version 8 in less than 12 months, says Garry Pryzyklenk at Search Enginge Watch. Those quick changes were a "recipe for disaster." IT administrators couldn't update their users' computers quickly enough. The new versions were plagued with compatibility and functionality issues, and users were rightfully annoyed. What was once a solid, reliable browser has become anything but.
"Browser wars: How Chrome overtook Firefox for the first time"
Firefox is going down, unless someone steps in: "If nothing changes, Chrome will soon vault [further] ahead of Firefox," says Henry Blodget at Business Insider. Last year, Mozilla's deal with Google ?? Google pays Mozilla to feature a little search window in the top right corner of the Firefox browser ? accounted for 84 percent of the company's revenue. If, as seems likely, Google pulls the plug, Firefox will feel the pain. Microsoft could step in and help Mozilla strike a blow against Google, but that doesn't seem to be happening. And, even so, it's likely Microsoft could only prolong Firefox's life for a year or two.
"And has Google now killed off Firefox completely by pulling the plug on its toolbar deal?*"

KABUL, Afghanistan?? A roadside bombing killed three NATO service members Saturday in eastern Afghanistan, the U.S.-led coalition said.
Only on msnbc.com
The coalition recently shifted its focus from southern Afghanistan to the east, where militants are fighting Afghan and coalition troops along the long, porous border with Pakistan.
The exact location of the bombing was not disclosed, nor were the nationalities of the dead.
So far this year, 519 NATO service members have been killed in Afghanistan, including at least 389 Americans.
Separately, tribal elders in Logar province, also in the east, continued to negotiate with insurgents on Saturday in an effort to free eight Pakistani laborers kidnapped by militants on Thursday, said provincial spokesman Din Mohammad Darwesh.
He said they were kidnapped by a gunman on a motorcycle who ambushed a bus carrying the laborers to work at a hospital construction site in Pul-e-Alam, the provincial capital. The assailants took them into the woods at gunpoint.
