Have you heard of bangtox? Twitter user and L.A. Times reporter Laura J. Nelson recently tweeted: “I can’t stop thinking about the women next to me in Pilates yesterday who were talking about “bangtox” -- getting bangs to hide a round of Botox that went wrong.

Wanted: Pig Cuddlers …Everyone wants to have someone to cuddle with for Valentine's Day, but if human intimacy doesn't appear to be in the cards for you, an animal rescue group in South Carolina would like you to consider snuggling up with a pig. Cotton Branch Farm Sanctuary is looking for "piggy cuddlers" to help 100 rescued pigs learn to be comfortable with humans as they prepare for their new lives as pets. These "piggy cuddlers" will be asked to play with the little porkers, talk to them and give belly scratches. The farm has 100 pigs it's trying to find loving homes for. (The State)
