He also won the Golden Globe and Screen Actors Guild award in earlier competitions. Backstage, Plummer called his Oscar "sort of a renewal." "It has recharged me," Plummer said.

Crystal belted out a new version of his usual opening song, "It's a Wonderful Night for Oscar," with lyrical references to each best picture nominee. The 84th annual Academy Awards was televised live Sunday night from the Hollywood & Highland Center, formerly Hollywood's Kodak Theatre. The Kodak name was taken off the theater after a bankruptcy court ruling last week. Crystal jokingly referred to it as the "beautiful Chapter 11 theater."www.aspirationlaw.net

President avoids scandal in Christmas speech
Published: 24 Dec 11 12:30 CET
In his annual Christmas address, to be aired Sunday evening, German President Christian Wulff did not mention the loan scandal that has dogged him throughout December, instead highlighting racism and political extremism.

- Wulff apologises for personal finance faux pas - Politics (22 Dec 11)
- Wulff faces increasing attacks from all sides - Politics (18 Dec 11)
Referring to a series of murders carried out by an underground cell of neo-Nazis, uncovered earlier this year, Wulff said, "So it shocks us all the more that criminals blinded with racism planned murders on people of foreign background over years."
The president called on people to stay alert, and to be ready to "stand up for democracy and the life and freedom of all people" in Germany.
Wulff said his meetings with relatives of the victims of the murders had been deeply moving. "Many told me that they did not only lose a loved one, but that they were suddenly suspected themselves. Even friends and relatives withdrew from them," he said.
"There is no place for xenophobia, violence or political extremism in our country," he said, before calling on Germans to build an open society together. "That starts in everyday life – it's up to me what kind of spiritual climate pervades my family, my religious community, my district or my club. Being open to foreign people and foreign things starts small."
Wulff also spoke about Europe in his speech, which was recorded Wednesday in the company of around 70 German citizens, including firefighters, care-workers, religious ministers and immigrants.
He said that Europe stood for "the great values of freedom, human rights and social safety."
"We can only achieve all these things together," he said. "Saying anything else might garner short-term plaudits, but it is wrong. We Germans will stand in solidarity with Europe."
