Ever wonder what the real reason was behind those teenage pregnancy pacts? Like, maybe it was really a government operation to recruit young girls to repopulate society? Lela Moore discusses three new books about teenage girls subjected to Orwellian practices in dystopian societies at The New York Times’ Arts Beat.

The FBI’s Most Wanted List has existed since 1949 and has featured over 500 people. Eight of them were women, including the very first one Ruth Eisemann-Schier, the first of these women. In 1968, she and her boyfriend kidnapped a construction heiress and buried her alive for 80 hours for $500,000 ransom. Darling. The heiress survived, and Eisemann-Schier was caught 79 days after being put on the Most Wanted List (her boyfriend was caught long before that — amateur), spent four years in prison, and was then deported back to Honduras. Read about the other seven at Mental Floss.

Together at last: Dr. Seuss and Pokemon. (At Comics Alliance)

When you finish an exam early, the next natural thing to do with your #2 pencil is to set it down and wait patiently for your paper to be collected.

And this was posted by her teacher, who gave the high school senior an A on her exam. (At Bleeding Cool)

    I drew all over my tests too in high school (and now at the uni, I do it on the scrap paper). Though I got teacher’s compliments, I do not think any of them were placed online. Of course, how would I know.

    I used to finish my geometry and trig tests, then draw figures skateboarding off of, tenting in, hiking up, and playing see-saw on the triangles, etc. I got some “please stop” comments…I personally get a kick out of students’ doodles, as long as they’re putting enough effort into the work.
