...been well established that Drew Barrymore is both adorable and a free spirit. Who else could show up to the Toronto premiere of her first directorial effort, the roller derby-themed film Whip It, with a hair-do that looked like something put together by a bored Jolie-Pitt child during an unsupervised hour at the chateau? If this were Lindsay Lohan, Dr. Phil would be calling for an intervention, but when Barrymore dips the last two inches of her electrocuted-looking blonde bob into skunk black, we assume her motive was not pretension or looming personal disaster, but rather...

Science agrees that listening to music at too high a volume can be dangerous, even for the young. Dr. Sandra Levey of New York City's Lehman College says 13% of teenagers aged 16 to 19 already show signs of noise-induced hearing loss. The inner ear contains small hair cells that vibrate against an inner membrane, generating an electrical signal that the brain interprets as sound, Levey explains. When bombarded by loud volumes over an extended period of time, these hair cells die off. The result is hearing loss, and potentially an array of other nasty consequences. A study...

Perugia's police murder-squad chief Monica Napoleoni often sits behind Comodi. She shows up for most court sessions - even though she is not required to appear - dressed like an undercover vice cop by U.S. standards.

Napoleoni has spent her career working the surprisingly mean streets of this ancient hill town, infested with battling gangs of Albanian and Moroccan drug dealers and a plague of prostitution from...

...woman in charge of the heavily criticized scientific evidence against Knox and Sollecito is Patrizia Stefanoni, a young forensic scientist who has spent many hours at the prosecution desk, twirling strands of long, dark hair in her fingers and scowling at the defense team's scientific experts. Stefanoni is highly regarded within the Italian legal system, having passed a series of stringent state tests to join the national Polizia Scientifica in Rome. One of her chief antagonists is defense expert Sara Gino, a whiz-kid forensic expert from Turin who charges that Stefanoni cherry-picked DNA results to profile...

...superstar Giulia Bongiorno, retained by Sollecito, the only defendant of the three who could possibly afford her fee. A member of the Italian Senate and a Berlusconi political ally, she made her name defending former Prime Minister Giulio Andreotti in a Mob-influence trial in the 1990s. With cropped hair, tennis shoes and expensive man suits under her judicial robe, Bongiorno wages attacks on the prosecution case that are sharply focused and often delivered with a withering blizzard of Neapolitan hand gestures and disdain...
