Police find one of two missing sisters

May 6, 2009

POLICE have found one of two sisters who went missing more than a week ago.

Nicole, aged 13, was found safe and well at an address in Stoke-on-Trent earlier today, but police are still looking for Bobbie-Jo.

 The 12-year-old is described as white, of slim build and about 5ft 2in tall.

She has shoulder length blonde hair and was last seen wearing black jeans, black Ugg boots, a black strap top and a black zip-up hooded jacket.

Sgt Dave Ingham from Stone Neighbourhood Policing Unit (NPU) said: “The girls have links within the Stoke-on-Trent area as well as in Stafford.

“We are very pleased that Nicole has been found, however we’re still appealing to the public for help in locating twelve year-old Bobbie-Jo.

Awful trend one: UGG Boots

OK people. I told you last year that UGGs were awful and ugly and not to be worn with shorts and/or skirts. But did you listen? NO. For some reason, people are still wearing Ugg boots and strutting around like they’re wearing Christian Louboutins. May I remind you that you aren’t and you probably bought your Uggs not because they are comfy and easy to wear, but because everyone and their sorority sister has them. Let’s try to be a little unique people.

Emotional Lorraine makes final TV3 broadcast

‘XPOSE’ frontwoman Lorraine Keane fought back tears as she left TV3’s studios for the last time yesterday after announcing her shock resignation on Tuesday after more than a decade at the network.

“Saying goodbye to all my pals makes it very difficult,” she told the Irish Independent last night. “But I know I’m making the right decision and I’m making it for all the right reasons. But it’s just saying goodbye to all my other family that’s difficult,” she said.

“I have mixed emotions. I made the decision. I didn’t do it on a whim. I’ve thought about it for a while.”

Lorraine is looking forward to spending time with her two young daughters aged two and five. She added that despite interviewing some of Hollywood’s leading A-listers, she won’t miss the glamour of the job.

“I’ve been doing it for a long time and I’m kind of looking forward to trading in my stilettos for Ugg boots.” Lorraine also paid an emotional farewell to viewers as she gave her final sign-off last night.

“That is all from ‘Xpose‘ tonight, and indeed, me on ‘Xpose‘. This is my last show so I’d like to take this opportunity to thank all my producers, my co-presenters, all the crew and indeed all my colleagues in TV3 for their support and friendship over the years, but especially, to you the viewers for tuning in each night.”

Apatow Examines Love and Bromance

Never has “bromance” seemed so sweet. “I Love You, Man” brings the love of two heterosexual men together… in a totally platonic way. And, no, it’s not just another Judd Apatow movie.

The film’s humor came mostly from witty little comments and the awkward nature of Rudd’s character. It’s quite entertaining to watch him squirm having the hardest time leaving a phone message to Sydney and saying things like, “Call me when you get a mo.” He makes up horrible nicknames like Jobin and continues to do imitations despite the fact that they all sound strangely similar to a leprechaun. Rudd pulled off the awkwardness well and really held up the starring role of the film. It’s about time, Hollywood. He should have had a part like this sooner.

Segel’s character was also a pleasant surprise. I didn’t expect much from him since I wasn’t all that impressed with “Forgetting Sarah Marshall” as so many seem to be. The film’s marketing made Sydney look a lot crazier than he actually turned out to be. He was eccentric, but believable. Crude, though less obvious than Segel’s role in “Marshall.”

Fife spews opinions on everything, wears Ugg boots on the beach and even has a puggle named Anwar Sadat- because he looks like him. According to IMDb.com, the dog is actually named Anwar Sadat. His motto of sorts also brought a bit of humor and a sort of explanation for why he is the way he is: “I’m a man; I have an ocean of testosterone flowing through my veins.”

The film really was, to me, a character movie. There are a lot of great small parts that really provide a lot of the film’s comedy. Some of my favorites were Jaime Pressly and Jon Favreau, who played Zooey’s best friend and her husband. Their little bickering and obviously miserable marriage (outside the bedroom) was actually really entertaining to watch.
