Look twice, because this woman is not Angelina Jolie

Angelina Jolie's stunning beauty seems one of a kind, but a YouTube video reveals that Jolie isn't the only actress to possess pouty lips, gorgeous eyes, and amazing cheekbones.

Lina Sands, an aspiring actress from Spain, is featured in a YouTube clip that really highlights how much she looks like the Oscar-winning Jolie. Watching it, it's hard to believe Sands isn't a young Jolie, since the Spanish actress matches Jolie's modelesque figure, brown hair, and beautiful facial features.

There are times when divorce forces people to do strange things. Burn sheets. Throw out clothes. Toss rings into the ocean. But when you get $100 million in your divorce, you can trump just about anything and that's what happened with Tiger Woods' ex-wife when she bought a $12 million home and bulldozed the whole thing.

How a 33-year-old became a billionaire

Robert J. Pera lives lean. The Apple engineer turned entrepreneur never checks a bag at the airport, leases a BMW and keeps a sparsely furnished one-bedroom apartment in San Jose, Calif. Pera takes a similar stripped-down approach toward running Ubiquiti Networks, the maker of wireless-networking gear he founded in 2005 and that went public in ­October. "My aim is to build something great as efficiently as possible," he says.

Thus far Pera has had exceptional aim: In the 12 months ended Sept. 30, Ubiquiti netted $64 million on $243 million in sales. That 26% net margin is the highest of any publicly traded computer hardware firm, according to FactSet Research Systems. (Apple came in second, at 24%.) Pera owns 64% of Ubiquiti, making his stake worth $1.2 billion on paper.

Ontario couple to claim $50M lottery win

A couple from Hawkesbury, Ont., just east of Ottawa, say they will head to Toronto on Tuesday to claim their $50-million Lotto Max prize.

Jo Ann Champagne, 49, said she and her 51-year-old husband, Gaétan, picked up the winning ticket at a pharmacy while shopping for Boxing Day sales "so I could put away stuff for next year and save some money."

They had played the lottery for 20 years without much luck, she said.

"I had to stop at the corner store on the way into Hawkesbury and I put the ticket in the checker, like I do every Saturday when I buy my 6/49 and I check my Max," Champagne said. "So I put it in and it says 50,000.

The National Enquirer has been proven wrong again, this time by Patrick Swayze's widow.

But according to Swayze's widow, dancer Lisa Niemi, two days before the "Dirty Dancing" star died from pancreatic cancer on September 14, 2009, he had a message for her instead.

Swedish woman finds wedding ring after 16 years, on a carrot

A Swedish woman who lost her wedding ring 16 years ago was flabbergasted when she found it again, around a carrot growing in her garden, media reported Saturday.

Lena Paahlsson had taken off the white gold ring before a Christmas baking session with her daughters in 1995, but it had disappeared from the kitchen counter where she placed it.

After looking everywhere, and even pulling up floorboards in the search, Paahlsson and her family, who live on a farm in northern Sweden, had given up on seeing the ring again, she told the Dagens Nyheter daily.

That was until October this year, when she was picking the last carrots in her garden and suddenly found one with her ring glimmering around it.

Living small: Lulu’s shipping container home

Downsizing was “big” in 2011, but few took the drastic measures Argentinean-born Californian single mom Lulu did.

Lulu went back to school and didn’t want to have to work full-time hours on top of her studies just to pay her rent. Instead, she and her daughter moved into a shipping container — for a steal.

“I think I’m a little claustrophobic, so the storage container was a little daunting, but I got the container for free,” she said.

Lulu went to work, honing her DIY skills on the box that would become her home. She put windows and a door, installed a kitchen and insulation, and then fitted a bed, couch, bookshelf and cabinets into the 160-square-foot cube.
