Killer heels? How do they do it?
Ever wonder how the "stars" stay in heels all the time. I don't know about you, but after two hours I like to pull my flip flops out of my purse and stash the heels back in.
Well, apparently they get injections that create "pillows in your feet."
"'It's biodegradable hyaluronic acid and Sephadex [sugar glucose beads], which stimulates your own soft tissue to produce more collagen,' Chelin explains. 'We're just replacing what nature takes away.' "
"Results can last up to 18 months, he says, although 'many high-heel devotees get treated about a week before their big glam outings.' "
Men are jumping on the wagon too.
I don't know about you but I will stick with the flip flops. Ever wonder how the "stars" stay in heels all the time. I don't know about you, but after two hours I like to pull my ... more -
Zero Gravity: The Lighter Side of Science
American Physical Society Sites: The Physics of High Heels.
Polish off your math skills everybody. Formula method @the link

"England, the country that nurtured the genius of Isaac Newton, has now applied the brains of its physicists to a modern conundrum: What is the height of the heels that Sex in the City's Carrie Bradshaw could wear without falling over or cramping up in pain?
The answer, as calculated by Professor Paul Stevenson of the University of Surrey, is as complicated as contemporary dating. If Bradshaw, the show's fashion mad lead character, is wearing shoes she really likes, cost a lot, and are the latest thing, she can sashay about easily in a pair of her beloved Manolo Blahnik stilettos that top out at over five inches or almost 13 centimeters tall. If she has spent the night toasting the end of the television series, then she had better think about not wearing shoes with heels higher than about an inch because the alcohol will upset her equilibrium.
What the quantification does not address is how much pressure a woman stumbling about in high heels would exert if she stepped on you. For that the British physics institute directs people to its web site where it records that a 100 pound woman in stilettos will exert pressure under her foot that is 20 times that of a 6,000 pound elephant.
