Women look their oldest at 3:30pm on Wednesdays


According to a study sponsored by a skin-care company, two-thirds of women experience an energy "slump" on Wednesday afternoons. By Wednesday, experts add, weekend partying and workweek insomnia catch up with our skin. On Thursday, though, weekend anticipation boosts moods. That's when women report they are most likely to have sex, which may be why on Friday, 60 percent say they're at their happiest and most glowing.

Russell from Disney's " UP " was actually modeled after a real person


The boy hero of Disney/Pixar's new animation "Up," which raked US$68 million in the first week since its U.S. release, is modeled after a Korean employee in the Pixar Studios. The little boy Russell is modeled after Peter Sohn, a 32-year-old ethnic Korean production artist who has been working with Pixar since 2000.

Sohn also made his debut as a short film director with four-minute animation "Partly Cloudy," which was released along with "Up."

At the premiere of "Up" at the Pixar Studio in California recently, Sohn said, "The atmosphere here at work is like playing. We draw each other's faces in meetings, and Russell's face was actually my face that someone had drawn. We decided to make the main character of the new film Asian, and naturally I became the model," Sohn said.

"Up" is a story of the big adventure of an old man and a school kid. It was the opening film of the Cannes Film Festival last month, and will be released in Korea at the end of July.

Modeling for a huge animation hit is not as big a deal to this graduate of California Institute of Arts as making his directorial debut. Sohn wanted to be an animation director since early childhood. "My parents ran a grocery store when I was young, and my mother would take me to the cinema every Fridays. She wasn't fluent in English, so she would always ask me, 'What are they saying?' But she had no problem understanding Disney animations. It was then that I decided to make animation films when I grew up."

Woman kills boyfriend with her breast



Witnesses say they heard the 5ft 7in man, who shared the mobile home with 5ft 6in Lange, pleading with her to get off of him.
One witness told The Sun: 'She had her chest on his face - she smothered him to death.'
Lange, who was heavily intoxicated and received facial injuries in the disturbance told police she had no idea how the man had died.

A policeman photographed what appeared to hair the same colour as Lange's, clutched in the victim's hand.
Lange faces charges of second-degree manslaughter.
Two months ago a German woman was accused of trying to kill her lawyer boyfriend with her 38DD breasts.

In 2008, an Elmo doll began saying “kill James” after the batteries were changed


A Lithia family says a cuddly, programmable Elmo doll revealed its dark side yesterday after fresh batteries were installed.
Instead of singing songs or reciting the favorite color of its 2-year-old owner, James Bowman, the doll started making death threats, the family says.
With a squeeze of its fuzzy belly, the Sesame Street character now says, in a sing-song voice, "Kill James." "It's not something that really you would think would ever come out of a toy," said Melissa Bowman, James' mother. "But once I heard, I was just kind of distraught."
