Mommy, she's scaring me

I suppose anyone who follows sports knows this, but I didn't: American runner Gail Devers has three-inch long blue fingernails. They can't be blamed for her utter failure -- in the hurdles event, she blew a calf muscle and went under the first hurdle, then stumbled off the track -- and I guess prove glamor and athleticism are not mutually exclusive, at least for someone who doesn't use her hands. By the way, she has Grave's Disease, a thyroid condition, which explains her bulging eyes.
