Kristen Stewart Wears Short Shorts, Flashes Major Leg On Movie Set (PHOTO)

Kristen Stewart may not be quick to flash a smile, but she seems just fine with flashing a whole lotta leg.

KStew was spotted on set of her new movie “Camp X-Ray” in Los Angeles, Calif., earlier today. She enjoyed the 75 degrees weather in her usual tomboy garb: short crimson shorts, a T-shirt that allowed for a sliver of her midriff to peek through, Converse sneakers and a backwards cap.

In the movie, Stewart plays a young woman who enlists in the military and winds up stationed at Guantanamo Bay. Once there, she starts to form a bond with one of the captives.

Latest Anti-Aging Craze is Crazy: Snail Facials (aka Mollusk Masks)

If I had to choose between a blood facial and a snail facial, I’d rather choose to have acne. No, really. I just think blood belongs in a person’s veins and snails belong on the ground.

We’ve all heard about Kim K’s bloody vampire facials. Apparently, the newest beauty craze involves putting snails all over your face.

Snail Facial

The snails are placed on the person’s face, where they’re allowed to travel freely. As they do so, the snails will leave behind a trail of mucus that is apparently rich in anti-aging properties.

You can’t just get some snails from your garden, since it calls for a special breed of African snails.

The service was launched recently in Japan, where it costs approximately $243(USD) per hour. Yep, you read that right: $243. No thanks.

Peter King: Hillary Clinton Would ‘Destroy’ Ted Cruz, GOP ‘Isolationists’ In 2016 (VIDEO)

Rep. Peter King (R-N.Y.) claims he thinks former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton (D) would “destroy” some of his Republican peers in a potential 2016 matchup.

“I think she’s very strong on foreign policy, and I think that if we nominate someone from our isolationist wing of the party, she’ll destroy them,” King said. “We need somebody that can stand up to her.”

King said he’s “not a fan” of Cruz, labeling him an “isolationist” and saying he has a “bad image for the party.” King also offered his views on a number of other Republicans seen as potential 2016 contenders, including Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie.

Chrome OS beta update brings 'immersive' mode, smarter app search and UI tweaks

If you’re running Chrome OS betas like it’s not even a thing, we’re pegging you as a bit of a maverick. The latest update (29.0.1537.32) rewards your non-conformity with a bevy of small, but useful new features. There’s Kernel 3.8 for the Pixel and Samsung 550 users, but likely you’re more interested in the new “immersive” full screen mode that hides the shelf and tool bar. Or, what about the ability to pin apps to the shells with drag and drop? There’s other tricks, too, such as wallpaper sync (across all your machines), UI scaling and a smarter app launcher. There’s a full list at the source, but knowing you, you already went there, right?
