Playdoh The official Play-Doh web page wasn’t very helpful, so we poked around the "Corporate Info" section of Hasbro’s web site. Eventually, we found a page on the history of Play-Doh. Unfortunately, the page didn’t name names, so we searched for " Play-Doh" on Yahoo! and found a wealth of information.

In 1956, Noah W. and Joseph S. McVicker of the Rainbow Crafts Company received U.S. patent number 3,167,440 for a pliable plastic modeling composition called Play-Doh. Although the Patent Office claims that the compound was originally designed as a wallpaper cleaner, Home & Garden Television states that Joe McVicker created the soft, reusable, non-toxic "clay" for his sister’s preschool class. Play-Doh was first sold by Rainbow Crafts in the toy department of Woodward & Lothrop Department Store in Washington, D.C. Even though it only came in off-white (primary colors were introduced in 1957), Play-Doh was an immediate hit.

In 1965, General Mills purchased the Rainbow Crafts Company, and in 1970, Rainbow Crafts was merged into General Mills’ Kenner Products line. Over the years, the company introduced many new colors and Play-Doh toys. The Tonka Corporation purchased the Kenner line in 1987, and Play-Doh’s current owner, Hasbro, purchased Tonka in 1991 — the year Play-Doh celebrated its 35th birthday.

Kirsten_dunst_drunk_puking_spring_20071 Club rehab is the trendy place to be!! Kirsten Dunst is the newest celebrity to check into rehab for being a drunk. Unfortunately for us, she was a responsible drunk unlike Paris Hilton who flashing her junk all around Hollywood.

Spider-Man’s Mary Jane made the decision to follow in the footsteps of Cirque patients such as Lindsay Lohan and Richie Sambora — after a week of wild parties at last month’s Sundance Film Festival. Fellow actress Eva Mendes is also in the mountaintop facility right now. Mary-Kate Olsen was treated at Cirque for food issues.

"She desperately needed help," a source in Utah tells Star. "She seemed to be intoxicated when she checked in because she was acting really erratic. She was extremely emotional, constantly breaking down in tears.

"She not in a good place right now, but thankfully, she’s getting the help she needs."

Oh ya great rehab to go to… sure worked for Mary-Kate’s eating disorder and Lindsay Lohan’s booze and penis addiction. Total sarcasm folks.
