Centuries-Old Shipwreck Found Off North Carolina Coast...Abeg is there gold inside

Image
The research vessel Atlantis with the submersible Alvin hanging off its stern.  Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution Van Dover told the paper she had led four previous expeditions as early as 2012 to the same site and had no idea the wreckage was there. "It's ironic to think we were exploring within 100 meters of the wreck site without an inkling it was there," she said. The team reported their find to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Marine Heritage Program, which will attempt to date and identify the ship.

Jeremih gets arrested for DUI on his birthday....Ouch!!

Image
R&B star Jeremih rang in his birthday by getting arrested early Friday morning in the Valley. The singer who just turned 28 on Friday was pulled over by California Highway Patrol around 2:15 AM and booked for misdemeanor DUI. Seems like he was out celebrating his birthday early and ended up spending the rest of the night behind bars. Bail was set at $15k, and he was released around 11 AM on Friday. Hopefully he enjoyed the rest of his birthday when he got out of jail.

Etcetera explains why men cheat... No we don't, we just cruzing?!

Image
Etcetera explains why Nigerian men cheat using Toke Makinwa's situation. When you heard the news that Toke Makinwa’s husband impregnated his girlfriend, you all took to social media to rain insults on Nigerian men. Why men cheat on women they love became a topic for all female radio presenters in the country. Aren’t you all tired of asking the same question over and over as if it is some perplexing unfathomable mystery?  Your question is rhetorical, but since it keeps coming up again and again, let me provide some explanations to help you understand the reasons. I will simply tell it like it is, with no bull, tact, or political correctness.  It’s just that oftentimes; women do not accept the explanations. But in fact, one can understand it through common sense. Sometimes a man would cheat on his wife or girlfriend because he doesn’t love her anymore; he is bored with her, or even possibly unhappy with their relationship.  In such sc...

iPhone Users Should Be Wary of This One Siri Command...oopsy?!

Image
Some iPhone users are scratching their heads over an unusual Siri phenomenon that takes place when commanding the technological assistant to charge their phone. Saying the words "charge my phone 100 percent" will prompt their devices to give them a five-second window before automatically calling emergency services, CNBC has discovered. While this unusual function could lead to many mistaken emergency phone calls, (before nko) it also has the potential to be a discreet method of calling the police in the event of a home invasion or kidnapping. Many iPhone users have taken to social media after coming across this function: It is unclear whether this feature was introduced intentionally by Apple or is simply a software glitch...huh?!. Apple did not immediately reply to a request for comment.Obviously!! The strange feature, first reported by The Verge , appears to works on both iOS 8 and iOS 9, according to multiple experiments conducted by CNBC.

If you like a mid-afternoon snooze, there's a chance you're already househunting in foreign climes. A mayor in a Spanish town has declared that it's compulsory for all residents to take a siesta during the day – and employers must agree. The town of Ador in Valencia has decreed that everything must close and people are to bed down between the hours of 2pm and 5pm, the peak heat hours in the country. Alamy Nap Time: Having a break and keeping it down are now part of a Spanish towns rules Mayor Joan Faus Vitòria even stated that residents have to keep the noise down during these times and children are to be kept indoors so other people can make the most of their rest time.

I'm Not Nuts: Squirrel 'Detained' for Stalking Woman...yEAH, he's not!!

A squirrel has become an online sensation after it was reportedly "detained" when a woman called police to complain it was stalking her. She's not fine o!!

Hedgehog rescued after falling off balcony gets private chauffeur to animal hospital....Big Boy!!

Image
A tiny hedgehog found itself with its own personal chauffeur after falling off a balcony and getting trapped in the baking hot sun. The animal is thought to have taken a tumble of at least four feet from a ground floor apartment down to the concrete basement apartment below....Ouch!! What's more, the hedgehog had found itself trapped in a plant pot during the middle of a heatwave , unable to take proper shelter from the scorching weather. YouTube Travelling style: The hedgehog was chauffeured to animal hospital after taking a fall Luckily Simon Cowell, from the Wildlife Aid Foundation (WAF) was on hand to help the poor creature (he's not poor!

Eyha kittens gets VERY confused over 'cat and mouse' for the digital age

Image
Cat and mouse: it's an age-old battle, made famous by the likes of Tom and Jerry, and Itchy and Scratchy. As this entertaining clip shows, that battle has now moved with the times, and into the digital age. Best of all, there's no bloodshed involved. These adorable and thoroughly modern kittens had to deal with a pesky mouse scuttling across the screen of an iPad. Poor things!! The difference in THIS game however was the annoyingly virtual and realistic mouse , who of course escaped their attempts to pounce every time. The game designed for cats also comes with life-like mouse squeaks, which work a treat when winding up this tech-savvy twosome "I'm more into Netflix myself." Bit by bit, the temptation of the mouse becomes too much for them to handle, and they go into a feline frenzy. Baffled, they try to look under the iPad, and at the side. But the mouse is nowhere to be found. Bored of the chase, one kitten eventually gives up in a sulk and le...

Why Do Researchers Want Tissue From Aborted Fetuses?...search me o!!

Image
National Institutes of Health Organ Shortages The case of diabetes especially illustrates why fetal tissue might be needed: not enough people donate organs after death. There's a procedure called the Edmonton Protocol, in which pancreatic cells can be transplanted from the bodies of people who have just died. It's given several hundred patients a break from taking insulin, although the transplant eventually fails in almost everyone and they must return to taking insulin. Diabetes researchers complain it's very difficult to get the pancreas cells they need, because there is such a shortage of donated organs. According to the United Network for Organ Sharing, more than 123,000 Americans are waiting for an organ transplant. So what scientists are working on is to create batches of cells, or even whole organs, in the labs. Supporters of stem cell research say all different kinds of stem cells are needed for this work until the best method for producing these regen...

OMG'Toughest' Cop Was Shot in Ankle During Rampage

Image
A police officer wounded in the Chattanooga, Tennessee, shootings underwent surgery and could be released from the hospital as early as Saturday, reported NBC affiliate WRCB . Sgt. Dennis Pedigo Jr. was shot in the ankle during Thursday's gun rampage in which four Marines were killed and a Navy officer was wounded, the station said. The gunman, Mohammad Youssuf Abdulazeez, 24, was also killed in the two shootings at a military recruitment center and a training facility. "You could hear the shots being fired, an officer had been hit," Chattanooga police Sgt. Gary Martin told WRCB. "That officer and I have worked together many, many years, have been through a lot together and he's probably one of the toughest officers I know," said Martin from outside Chattanooga's Erlanger Medical Center. Pedigo was wounded during the second shooting at a Navy Operational Support Center. "Before you knew it, I saw him raise his gun and then I saw him take...

Photographer Features Mothers in the Wild to End the Shame of Breastfeeding...pls close you eyes!

Image
As a breastfeeding mom, I’ve experienced the physical and emotional struggles of nursing my child. Breastfeeding isn’t exactly an easy journey and moms who choose to nurse their youngsters constantly face risks of being judged for giving their child the best milk in the world. It’s unbelievable how a man managed to shame a woman who was breastfeeding her child inside a restaurant. Like other breastfeeding moms, photographer Erin White was having difficulty nursing her child. But when an opportunity to photograph breastfeeding mothers from her local community in Kaiserslautern, Germany came, White’s confidence was boosted. Titled “Women in the Wildâ€, the photo series included 51 mothers from different locations in the world who confidently shared their inspiring stories about normalizing breastfeeding and promoting body positivity. “The first year or two can be so hard as a family, the last thing [a mom] should be stressed about is her body image. I hope people ...

Road Raging Driver Attacks Motorcyclist and Gets His Dose of Instant Karma!***tongue out**

Image
We all know what horrible traffic can do to your emotional intelligence. Even the most calm and level-headed person can turn into the Incredible Hulk when road rage sets in. This is what happened to a man in Yuma, Arizona when a motorcycle allegedly cut him off and committed lanesplitting. He got off his vehicle and went over to the motorcyclist guy and the passenger, the girlfriend. Tempers flared and the road rager just totally lost it. he actually assaulted the motorcyclist! He even hurt the man's girlfriend!(ouch!!l) I gotta hand it to the other guy…he was able to remain calm even when the road rager was in his face and pushing his girlfriend. He was indeed very lucky to have a camera mounted on his helmet and was able to catch the whole thing on tape. Notice how the road rager appeared to be falling asleep several minutes after he was pinned down? Authorities say the man may have been on alcohol or drugs at the time of the incident. Multiple charges were filed aga...

Too much TV time linked to risk of being bullied, study suggests....for where

Image
Toddlers who spend a lot of time in front of a TV may be at greater risk of being bullied later in life, a new study suggests. As the number of hours of TV watching increased, so did the risk of being victimized by classmates in middle school, according to the study published in the Journal of Developmental & Behavioral Pediatrics . "Television to me is a pleasant pastime," said study coauthor Linda Pagani, a psychologist and professor in the school of psycho-education at the University of Montreal and a researcher at the brain health division of the Sainte-Justine's Children's Hospital. "But too much of one pastime can come at the detriment of another." Chris Stein / Getty Images When kids watch too much television, they can “grow up with deficits in their emotional skills,†study coauthor Linda Pagani said. When you go beyond two hours of TV watching, it takes away from more engaging activities, Pagani said. Most important of thos...

Bungling Burglar Recorded Footage of Himself: Cops....Very stupid

Image
A Southern California intruder probably wasn't ready for his close up when he accidentally took a selfie while burglarizing a Venice area home last week, police said Thursday. The man allegedly broke in through an unlocked door and then accidentally recorded video of himself after opening an app on an iPhone that was in the home, the LAPD said. Wearing a black hat and hood, the man peers into the camera before quickly turning it off. He then ran out with the cellphone while three people slept in nearby bedrooms, police said. Southern California Crimes Caught on Camera Anyone with information about the incident is asked to call LAPD Detective Salazar at 310-482-6363 or to report information anonymously by calling 1-800-222-8477.

Study finds sitting for too long can increase cancer risk..how nah?!

Image
Ladies â€" it's time to get off our butts and take a stand. A new study published in "Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers, and Prevention" reveals that women who sit too much during their leisure time have an increased risk of cancer.This is the latest study showing that the sitting disease , too much time on our rumps, negatively impacts our health. Shutterstock "I think this is a really interesting result. There's been a growing body of literature over the past couple of years that too much sitting carries risk above just lack of exercise. Only in the past few years have we seen studies address cancer specifically," says Karen Basen-Engquist, director of the Center for Energy Balance and Cancer Prevention and Survivorship at MD Anderson Cancer Center, who was not involved in the study. The prospective included 184,000 adults aged 50 to 70, who were enrolled in American Cancer Society Cancer Prevention Study II Nutrition Cohort. Participants an...

Stupid guy taunts a Raging Bull with Flaming Horns,the rest they say is history

This video will prove you once again that “you miss with the bull, you get the hornsâ€. Apparently, this man might have missed that when he antagonize one raging bull with flaming horns as if saying, ‘Come and get me.’ The incident took place in Mislata, Spain. At first, the bull was taking its time but is ready to attack him and soon after, it did â€" leaving the man knocked down. By now he has probably learned his lesson, the hard way of course. The thing is, if you’re looking for trouble, you’ll most probably get into one and festivals like this is obviously not an exemption. Watch the video and see for yourself: YOU MAY LIKE

Cant believe this !!! Extreme Heat In This Town Has Forced People To Live Undeground

Image
We’ve all heard about Australia being the “Land Down Under†but have you ever heard about the country’s “Town Down Under?†Located in the opal mining town in South Australia is an extremely hot place called Coober Pedy. With extreme temperatures that reach up to 125 degrees Fahrenheit, the people in this town decided to establish their residencies underground. Yes, living above the ground is not an option for most people here. Besides, the troubling climate claims more than 40 lives every year and so converting mines to homes have been the best alternative for the residents. Coober Pedy derived its name from the Aboriginal term kupa-piti which literally means “white man’s hole.†Typical residential underground homes in Coober Pedy are called “dugouts†and you will be surprised by what they’ve built. Some homes actually have elaborate rooms and indoor swimming pools. Also, they’ve built a wonderful community with everything they need such as bars, je...

He Found Out His Wife was Cheating When His Innocent Daughter Answered the Phone....Opssy!!

Image
Everybody loves a good read and adding a spectacle of humor makes the whole story even more worth reading. As they say, humor is the cinnamon to the bun that is best partnered with a strong taste of a newly-brewed espresso. However, will it still be funny when you have perfectly planned a vengeful karma but only to found out that it was an epic fail after all? He knew his wife has been cheating all this time. This was what he wanted to confirm after his then-trophy wife started acting strange and symptoms of a potential two-faced partner began to surface. As he picked up the phone and pulled the last thread of guts, he dialed it and gave his little angel a ring. The whole telephone conversation initially sounded pretty casual not until they got through the bottom of it and discovered that the joke was on him. Bet you didn’t see that coming huh?! Given the same case, will you handle the situation at exactly the same way? You decide. While most of us would prefer to end...

This Incredibly Talented Guy Fooled Two Top Magicians With His Epic Card Tricks...So coool!

Image
We all grew up with magic. As kids, we were filled with total delight and amazement as we watched various illusions performed before our eyes. Remember how thrilling it was to witness vanishing coins, linking chains, and restoring ropes? However, we become a little skeptical about all these acts as we grow older. Instead of simply enjoying the show, we try to analyze and expose how the tricks are done. Besides, we rationalize that we’re already too old to get fooled, right? Still, there are some magicians out there who are truly impressive we couldn’t figure out how they do their stuff. Such as this recent “Fool Us†contestant named Shin Lim. Pianist-turned-magician Shin Lim creatively combined music and magic in his act. Popular magician-comedian tandem Penn & Teller are the judges for this CW television show. This program hopes to discover new illusionists who can impress the experienced duo. And Lim didn’t fail to knock their socks off! Watch him pe...

Man brutally assauted by police in Benin allegedly over tattoo......Ehn!!!

The victim, a man named Jerry Guobadia, said he was on his way from the bank when two policemen in an unbranded vehicle stopped him and tried to force him into their vehicle. He said he resisted and asked them why he was being arrested…and they allegedly told him the tattoos on his body was too much. He said he found their reason suspicious and resisted being arrested. And that when the policemen allegedly descended on him. He also alleged that the policemen took the money he had with him. See more photos and watch him explain what happened after the cut…
