LARISSA BELKIS The Ten Most Gross and Disgusting Celebrity Deaths The untimely deaths of Heath Ledger and Brad Renfro, and the suicide attempt of Owen Wilson, have brought to public attention how high the price of fame is. Compared to the grotesque, disgusting and sometimes even creative celebrity deaths in yesterday’s world of entertainment, death by drug overdose in today’s show business world (real or accidental) seems an almost gentle way to check out. Not so for these ten: Bob Crane – Death by Tire Iron The popular star of “Hogan’s Heroes” met his maker in an Arizona motel.

Ramon Novarro – Death by Dildo Marie Provost – Death by Dachshund Peggy Entwistle – Death by Sign Gwili Andre – Death by Newspapers

The girl in the window Part One: The Feral Child PLANT CITY — The family had lived in the rundown rental house for almost three years when someone first saw a child's face in the window. A little girl, pale, with dark eyes, lifted a dirty blanket above the broken glass and peered out, one neighbor remembered. Everyone knew a woman lived in the house with her boyfriend and two adult sons. But they had never seen a child there, had never noticed anyone playing in the overgrown yard. The girl looked young, 5 or 6, and thin. The child stared into the square of sunlight, then slipped away. Months went by. Just before noon on July 13, 2005, a Plant City police car pulled up outside that shattered window. Clutching his stomach, the rookie retched in the weeds. Plant City Detective Mark Holste had been on the force for 18 years when he and his young partner were sent to the house on Old Sydney Road to stand by during a child abuse investigation. They found a car parked outside. "Unbelievable," she told Holste. Dr. Click.

A Brief History of Stockholm Syndrome Time and again during the 18 harrowing years she allegedly spent in captivity, Jaycee Lee Dugard must have had the chance to cry for help. She assisted her alleged abductor, Phillip Garrido, with his home business, sorting out orders by phone or e-mail. She occasionally greeted customers alone at the door. She even went out in public. But she apparently never made a run for it, returning each day instead to a shed in the backyard of the man who allegedly kidnapped and raped her.

Shoe Makeover I love the simple, carefree style of laceless tennis shoes, especially in the summer. They're the best shoes to slip on before running errands, shopping, being outside, or really anything. I've been drooling over these Keds for a while now... However $50 for one pair of shoes really isn't in my budget. So when I saw plain white Keds knock offs at Walmart for only $5 , I knew exactly what I wanted to do. Materials Needed: Plain White or Off White Tennis Shoes (Walmart has them for $5 and Target has them for $9)RIT or other brand Fabric Dye1.5 " wide ElasticStrong Needle and Thread (in coordinating color) Although I love the muted colors that Keds sells. First take out the laces In a large pot Boil your water. Rinse your shoes off in the sink with hot water When your water is boiling, turn it down to more of a simmer and add your dye. Let them sit, stirring them around every once in a while, for about 10 minutes or until they reach your desired shade. Here's how mine looked once dry: Shoes- $5
Single Loop Lace Infinity Scarf Tutorial Materials: 1/ 2 yd Lace 1/2 yd Backing Fabric Matching thread (ignore the elastic thread shown in the pic) Tutorial: My original intention for this project was a shirred waist skirt. Begin by cutting your lace and backing fabric into 18" x 45" rectangles. Sew along each 45" side Turn inside out and you'll have something like this: Bring the two ends together and pin the lace fabric right sides together. Sew with a 1/2 inseam. Turn the scarf inside out so that the seams are exposed and pin your backing fabric right sides together. Sew as shown below (with a 1/2" inseam), leaving about a 4 inch gap opening. Turn scarf right side out through your gap and secret stitch the opening. And done! Maybe not as cute as the skirt I had envisioned, but pretty darn close! *Update* More scarves made with this tutorial!
Watermark Tee by Sweet Verbana Hello U-Create readers! I am so excited to be guest posting here today. It just so happens to be my first guest post and I'm still a little shocked that it's here at Ucreate, one of my favorite blogs! A little bit about me.. I'm from a little town called Keller, Texas. I'm a junior at Texas A&M University (whoop!). I'm working on my education degree and expect to be an elementary school teacher in just two short years. When I'm not busy studying for classes, I love to sew. I just started blogging in May and have already met all kinds of wonderful women, I hope you'll stop by and say hi too! Watermark Tee Tutorial What I love about this project is that it's completely customizable. Materials: Elmer's Blue Gel Glue (it must be the blue gel, white won't work) Fabric Dye (RIT is my tried and true brand) A white cotton Tee, Tank, Dress etc. Tutorial: If you're unfamiliar with Batiking, it's a method of dyeing fabric in which you create a design with a dye- resist. Step 1: Prepare Step 2: Design
P.S.- I made this...
