At the local Cop Shop:
Children are usually told that if they ever need help they should call police. Apparently that includes asking for help with homework.
A 10-year-old Ohio girl sent a Facebook message to police when she couldn't figure out her math problems. Lieutenant B.J. GRUBER with the Marion Police Department was on the receiving end of LENA DRAPER's message. He reportedly walked the girl through all the steps to solve two equations.
Draper's mother shared the exchange on Facebook, praising the officer for "good community relationship-building." As a side note, Gruber says he got the first math problem right, but the second answer turned out to be incorrect. (Still)Lowest common denominator:
You're never too old for a lap dance, or are you?
Twenty-six year-old BRITTANY FULTZ, of Marblehead, Ohio, was taking care of a 100-year-old man with dementia at an assisted living facility. She had another caretaker film her while she gave the man a lap dance, to make him feel good, and then showed him her butt and breasts. The other caretaker must have realized how wrong that was and showed it to a supervisor, who quickly fired Brittany. (Myers)Overheard on Sunset Blvd:
Could you spend some quality time looking at KRISTEN STEWART in a bathing suit on the big screen? Thought so.
20th Century Fox also apparently thinks it'll be no problem, and is in talks to have her star in the adventure-thriller "Underwater."
Varietyreports the plot line is about an underwater scientific crew forced to go on dangerous journey for survival following an earthquake, and Kristen would play the lead role, a jaded crew member.Fashion Emergency:
Color-changing hair-dye exists! The chameleon-like hair color is called "Fire" by the London-based label, The Unseen. It was developed so that your dyed hair repeatedly changes color depending on the environment and temperature. The semi-permanent colors change from black to red, black to white, silver to blue, blue to white, and black to yellow. Mashable.com says it is made possible with thermochromic ink, but ones that are less toxic than what you would normally find. The color change happens through a process called 'polymeric stabilization.' The chemical reaction occurs in response to a change in temperature and presto --magically-changing hair colors.
The dye is not sold in stores... yet! Its developer is still perfecting the formula. But they previewed the hair follicle formula for London Fashion Week with a video demonstrating how it works. (Bartha)
