Neighbors Find Dog Tied Up to a Tree, by Evening 'They Knew' the Truth
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Neighbors who found a dog tied up to a tree one morning knew the unspeakable truth had happened: someone had abandoned him. A June 4 Facebook post by the Stray Rescue of St. Louis, an organization dedicated to rescuing and healing stray animals, shared that the neighbors first saw the large dog in the morning. When no one returned for him in the afternoon, they left out a bowl of water, and by evening, "they knew" his owner would not be returning. That's when Stray Rescue of St. Louis stepped in. The video shows the rescue organization slowly approaching the dog, who is now named Beans. He stared at the woman sternly. But his one ear pointed up, showing his curiosity and hopefulness that he would no longer be tied to the tree. His entire demeanor changed once he hopped into the car; a smile spread and his tongue stuck out, embracing his freedom ride. His tail wagged with excitement for the future. Natalie Thomson, chief communications officer for Stray Rescue of St. Louis, told Newsweek via email that he was found on June 1. Despite what he's been through, which remains unknown, he "has been doing great." "Our shelter is super full, so he's been in a crate all week because we're overfull," she said. "But he is soooo sweet! He's ready for adoption or foster!"

"He went from boofing at you from the tree, to being the biggest smiley Boi in the car," pointed out one viewer. A second added: "You are just a heartless shell of a person to just tie up your dog and walk away. Your loss will be someone else's gain! Thankful he landed with good people until he gets his own new family." Another person commented: "Poor sweet baby. So glad you got to him before any more harm came to him."

Even Stevens fans STUNNED at shocking transformation of beloved actor
Even Stevens star Steven Anthony Lawrence has shocked fans with his transformation almost two decades after appearing on the beloved kids' show. The 34-year-old actor, who played Bernard 'Beans' Aranguren in the adored Disney Channel show, has stunned the internet after appearing in a series of videos shared far and wide on social media. In one clip, Lawrence danced to a track by DeVon True and Que Tha Poet with his shirt off in a car park. Standing at 5ft1, Lawrence seemed in high spirits as he thrusted his hips and raised his arms to the sky. 'The year is 2025 and this is Beans from Even Stevens,' the caption across the clip read, despite being uploaded to TikTok in October. Taking to the comments, one uneasy user said: 'I don't know how I feel about this.' Another said: 'This feels illegal idk how to explain.' 'I know it doesn't even compute in my brain,' a third agreed. Another added: 'I'm so annoyed that this is exactly where I imagined Beans going. That or space.' 'He kinda looks like he teaches high school Math or English,' commented a fifth. Referring to the sitcom It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, a sixth said: 'They gotta get him on Sunny.' In another clip shared in February, Lawrence appeared alongside artist DeVon True in another music video. This time, the pair danced side by side in a car park. Lawrence found fame when he bagged a recurring role alongside Shia LaBeouf on the Disney Channel original series Even Stevens in 2001. On the show, Lawrence played Beans, the Stevens' extremely annoying neighbor, who comes into their home uninvited, makes himself at home, and refuses to leave. Beans' love of bacon was a recurring theme in the comedy and in one episode, titled Little Mr. Sacktown, his character even visits a bacon shack. His character eventually turned into a sidekick for Louis, played by LaBeouf, and Twitty's schemes, with him usually double-crossing the two. A.J. Trauth played Twitty. Lawrence starred in a grand total of 22 episodes. He also starred in The Even Stevens Movie before he departed the series in 2003. Later that year he enjoyed a role in the Steve Martin film Cheaper by the Dozen. He went on to land roles in popular television shows such as Married... with Children, The Amanda Show and Sabrina, the Teenage Witch all before the age of 10. Lawrence also starred in well-known series including Frasier, ER, Buffy the Vampire Slayer and That's So Raven. He then appeared in several other movies including Rebound in 2005, Bratz in 2007, and Archie's Final Project in 2009. Lawrence's last movie appearance was in Holly, Jingles and Clyde 3D, in 2013. He played Jingles. Lawrence has also appeared in various TV commercials. In 2011, he portrayed a pink elf in the T-Mobile holiday advertisement, and in 2012, he wore a dog costume for an Old Spice commercial. The actor is fairly active on social media and posts regularly on Instagram - where he has 4,874 followers. He also hosted a podcast with his former Even Stevens costars Christy Carlson Romano - who played Ren Stevens - and Nick Spano - who played Donnie Stevens - for several months last year. The trio reunited for the first time in years to revisit the wacky world of Even Stevens every Thursday, where they would re-watch an episode of the show, share behind-the-scenes stories as well as inside jokes, and reminisce about their time on set. They also spoke about their lives since being on the show, and the impact that Even Stevens has had on them. In a July 2023 episode, Lawrence confessed that he almost 'went to Disney jail' when he was younger because he and his girlfriend at the time were 'getting a little hot and frisky' while in the Haunted Mansion attraction. More recently, Lawrence has been showing off his teeth on Instagram after a visit to Dr. Jonathan Gabai in Beverly Hills where he got himself a 'new smile.' In a 2021 interview with Vice, Lawrence opened up about why he had been sporting a missing tooth before investing in his dazzling new smile. 'I was taking care of a friend's big ol' fish. I was right next to this thing going, "Here fishy, fishy, fishy," and this stupid thing kind of splashed and startled me, and I went forward into the [tank] and chipped my damn tooth,' he explained. 'It's extremely embarrassing.' In the past, Lawrence has also opened up about his addiction to drugs and alcohol. He has been sober since 2019. He also speaks at high schools warning students about the dangers of substance abuse.
