Fragments of the asteroid fell in a thinly populated area of the Chelyabinsk region, the Emergency Ministry said in a statement. Interior Ministry spokesman Vadim Kolesnikov said 292 people had called for medical assistance following the incident, mostly for treatment of injuries from glass broken by the explosions. Kolsenikov also said about 600 square meters (6000 square feet) of a roof at a zinc factory had collapsed. Reports conflicted on what exactly happened in the clear skies.

Barbie And Ken Take Doll Comments As Compliments

She's the woman known around the world as the real-life Barbie. A Russian beauty named Valeria Lukyanova. "Barbie is ideal woman," said Lukyanova. Like the doll herself, she is ageless, and we mean that, literally. She will not reveal her age. But she will admit to a lifelong obsession with the legendary doll. "I love Barbie since I'm five," said Lukyanova. To enhance her Barbie appearance, she wears blue contact lenses over her naturally green eyes. She's had breast implants, but insists the rest of her body is totally natural. She stays in shape with gym workouts, and enhances that Barbie look with makeup and wardrobe. And it sure does work with the blonde hair, the blue eyes, the pouty lips, the hourglass waist. Our real-life Barbie is also an opera singer! But to really hit that high note, she needs a partner—a real-life Ken. And we've found him! His name is Justin Jedlica, and he shares the same traits as the classic Ken doll.
