Oakland Athletics outfielder Ramón Laureano was suspended for 80 games without pay by the commissioner’s office Friday after testing positive for a performance-enhancing substance.

Have fun at the movies in 2012. Wiig plays Annie, a hapless maid of honor to her best friend, Lillian (Maya Rudolph). The film during its theatrical release was criticized by some for being too cynical, but truthfully, it's not cynical enough. "The Help" -- Writer-director Tate Taylor's adaptation of Kathryn Stockett's best seller Emma Stone features the best ensemble cast of the year. A brilliant ode to a bygone era, "The Artist" is by far the most unique -- and entertaining -- film of the year.
