— Nothing will heal a broken heart like $150,000.

That’s how much a Hall County jury has ruled Wayne Gibbs owes his ex-fiancee, RoseMary Shell, for breaking off their engagement. Shell sued for breach of contract after she left her $81,000-a-year job in Pensacola, Fla., in 2006 to move to Gainesville, Ga., and be with her fiancee.

Two months later, Gibbs told her he was having second thoughts. He broke up with her in March 2007, leaving her stuck in Gainesville with a $31,000 job. The jury award equals one year of her old salary, plus bonuses and benefits. Shell told The Times of Gainesville she is “thrilled.”

- And finally, the bubble might have burst for off-Broadway's "Gazillion Bubbles Show."

Someone has stolen the show's specialized soapy bubble solution, which takes two months to make.

A show spokesman says 3.4 tons of bubble solution and 6,000 toys went missing in the June 10 break-in at a Hoboken, N.J., warehouse.

The show has only six weeks worth of solution on hand to make the air-filled globes of soapy film.

The interactive show was created by renowned bubble artist Fan Yang. It features dazzling light effects, lasers and lots of bubbles — some so intricate or big they have smoke, other bubbles or even people inside them. Yang has put up to four children in one bubble.
