TIME - Now you can capture yourself in all your breakfast eating glory.

It has been said that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Clearly that’s why Cinnamon Toast Crunch has introduced a “selfie spoon,” a selfie stick with a spoon at the end that extends up to 30 inches so cereal eaters can take photos of themselves while eating cereal.

The General Mills brand created this new spin on the notorious selfie stick to solve the first world problem of “choosing between eating and posting” a selfie, according to their ad.

To use the selfie spoon, narcissists just have to turn on the Bluetooth feature on their smartphones so the white remote will be recognized — there is one gray button that takes photos on Android phones, and one that takes photos on iOS devices.

Selfie spoons are free to order now on SelfieSpoon.com, though customers do have to pay for shipping and will likely pay in followers on social media.

ML - "No disrespect to Daniel, he's cool and all, [but] I wanted to meet the AlDub couple."

On September 5, the 27-year-old guard from Golden State Warriors engaged in basketball drills, shoot-outs and scrimmage with several young basketball players from here and abroad as part of his first Asian tour with the sports brand Under Armour.


The one-time NBA Champion also participated in several photo shoots, interviews and media appearances.

One media appearance included was when he met local actor Daniel Padilla and his entourage. They shook hands, exchanged words for a few minutes and took pictures. Stephen Curry, however, was underwhelmed by this.

"I've seen the AlDub couple whenever my wife's Filipino friend watches them on YouTube. I think they're cool and it would've been cooler to meet them instead," Curry told the media before he left for China.

AlDub is a fictional supercouple pairing of Alden Richards and Yaya Dub (Maine Mendoza) from the daytime variety series Eat Bulaga!

ML - A giant panda in Taiwan has been accused of faking pregnancy in a bid to receive preferential treatment from her keepers.

Yuan Yuan, an 11-year-old female who was artificially inseminated towards the end of March, had begun to show signs of pregnancy including loss of appetite, mobility and thickening of the uterus, according to Taiwan’s Central News Agency.

The panda was moved to her own air-conditioned room and given round-the-clock care, extra bamboo and treats such as fruit and buns.

But when experts flown in from China after more than a month of the treatment examined Yuan Yuan using ultrasound, they discovered that she was not actually pregnant.

Sure enough, a spokesperson for Taiwan Zoo told China Daily that the animal’s behaviour and pregnancy symptoms were beginning to revert to normal.

It is not the first time that keepers have speculated a “phantom pregnancy” – common occurrences among pandas – might be deliberate.

Last year, officials at a breeding centre in Sichuan province, China, believed a six-year-old female called Ai Hin was also trying to deceive her keepers.

Wu Kongju, an expert at the Chengdu Giant Panda Breeding Research Centre where Ai Hin was kept, explained that not all “fake” pregnancies were just down to hormonal changes.

“After showing prenatal signs, the 'mothers-to-be' are moved into single rooms with air conditioning and around-the-clock care,” Wu told Xinhua.

“They also receive more buns, fruits and bamboo, so some clever pandas have used this to their advantage to improve their quality of life.”

A range of emojis depicting same sex couples are now available on social media

ML - Russia may ban "gay emojis" from social media if an investigation by the state media watchdog rules that they infringe laws against "gay propaganda".

According to a report by Russia's Izvestia newspaper, the investigation was prompted by a complaint from Mikhail Marchenko, a Russian senator.

Mr Marchenko claims the symbols - which depict smiley-faced same-sex couples - violate a controversial 2013 law which prohibits promotion of non-traditional sexual relationships.

The law allows Russian authorities to block access to websites deemed to promote homosexuality.

Mr Marchenko said in his complaint that the emojis "promoted non-traditional sexual relationships", "denied family values" ​​and showed "disrespect for parents and other family members".

An Apple update earlier this year introduced emojis depicting gay parents

In response to the complaint, media watchdog Roskomnadzor asked the youth group of President Vladimir Putin's political party, the Young Guard, to report on the matter.

Kirill Grinchenko, a spokesman for the Young Guard, told Izvestia that the group had not yet received a request to look into the matter but was "ready to deal with the protection of rights on the Internet under Russian law".

On Tuesday the founder of Children-404, an online community for LGBT teenagers in Russia, was fined 50,000 roubles (£520; $830) after a Russian court ruled that the site was guilty of distributing "propaganda of non-traditional sexual relations among minors".

Russia has faced international criticism for its anti-gay laws. Individuals can be fined 4,000-5,000 roubles if they are convicted of promoting so-called non-traditional sexual relations, with much higher fines for businesses and possible jail sentences for foreigners.

Apple first added emojis depicting gay couples to its operating system back in 2012. An update earlier this year introduced emojis showing gay couples with children, and hugely increased the racial diversity among the 300 symbols available.

ML - One of the most embarrassing aspects of U.S. politics is politicians who deny that money has any impact on what they do. For instance, Tom Corbett, Pennsylvania’s notoriously fracking-friendly former governor, got $1.7 million from oil and gas companies but assured voters that “The contributions don’t affect my decisions.” If you’re trying to get people to vote for you, you can’t tell them that what they want doesn’t matter.

This pose is also popular with a certain prominent breed of pundits, who love to tell us “Don’t Follow the Money” (New York Times columnist David Brooks), or “Money does not buy elections” (Freakonomics co-author Stephen Dubner on public radio’s Marketplace), or “Money won’t buy you votes” (Yale Law School professor Peter H. Schuck in the Los Angeles Times).

Meanwhile, 85 percent of Americans say we need to either “completely rebuild” or make “fundamental changes” to the campaign finance system. Just 13 percent think “only minor changes are necessary,” less than the 18 percent of Americans who believe they’ve been in the presence of a ghost.

So we’ve decided that it would be useful to collect examples of actual politicians acknowledging the glaringly obvious reality. Here’s a start; I’m sure there must be many others, so if you have suggestions, please leave them in the comments or email me. I’d also love to speak directly to current or former politicians who have an opinion about it.

• “Now [the United States is] just an oligarchy, with unlimited political bribery being the essence of getting the nominations for president or to elect the president. And the same thing applies to governors and U.S. senators and congressmembers. … So now we’ve just seen a complete subversion of our political system as a payoff to major contributors …” — Jimmy Carter, former president, in 2015. (Thanks to Sam Sacks.)

• “You have to go where the money is. Now where the money is, there’s almost always implicitly some string attached. … It’s awful hard to take a whole lot of money from a group you know has a particular position then you conclude they’re wrong [and] vote no.” — Vice President Joe Biden in 2015.

• “Lobbyists and career politicians today make up what I call the Washington Cartel. … [They] on a daily basis are conspiring against the American people. … [C]areer politicians’ ears and wallets are open to the highest bidder.” — Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, in 2015.

• “When you start to connect the actual access to money, and the access involves law enforcement officials, you have clearly crossed a line. What is going on is shocking, terrible.” – James E. Tierney, former attorney general of Maine, in 2014.

• “Allowing people and corporate interest groups and others to spend an unlimited amount of unidentified money has enabled certain individuals to swing any and all elections, whether they are congressional, federal, local, state … Unfortunately and rarely are these people having goals which are in line with those of the general public. History well shows that there is a very selfish game that’s going on and that our government has largely been put up for sale.” – John Dingell, 29-term Democratic congressman from Michigan, in 2014 just before he retired.

• “When some think tank comes up with the legislation and tells you not to fool with it, why are you even a legislator anymore? You just sit there and take votes and you’re kind of a feudal serf for folks with a lot of money.” —Dale Schultz, 32-year Republican state legislator in Wisconsin and former state Senate Majority Leader, in 2013 before retiring rather than face a primary challenger backed by Americans for Prosperity.

• “The alliance of money and the interests that it represents, the access that it affords to those who have it at the expense of those who don’t, the agenda that it changes or sets by virtue of its power is steadily silencing the voice of the vast majority of Americans … The truth requires that we call the corrosion of money in politics what it is – it is a form of corruption and it muzzles more Americans than it empowers, and it is an imbalance that the world has taught us can only sow the seeds of unrest.” – Secretary of State John Kerry, in 2013 farewell speech to the Senate.

• “I think it is because of the corrupt paradigm that has become Washington, D.C., whereby votes continually are bought rather than representatives voting the will of their constituents. … That’s the voice that’s been missing at the table in Washington, D.C. — the people’s voice has been missing.” — Michele Bachmann, four-term Republican congresswoman from Minnesota and founder of the House Tea Party Caucus, in 2011.

• “The banks — hard to believe in a time when we’re facing a banking crisis that many of the banks created — are still the most powerful lobby on Capitol Hill. And they frankly own the place.” – Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., in 2009.

• “There is no question in the world that money has control.” — Barry Goldwater, 1964 GOP Presidential nominee, just before retiring from the Senate in 1986.

• ”When these political action committees give money, they expect something in return other than good government. … Poor people don’t make political contributions. You might get a different result if there were a poor-PAC up here.” — Bob Dole, former Republican Senate Majority Leader and 1996 GOP Presidential nominee, in 1983.

• “Money is the mother’s milk of politics.” — Jesse Unruh, Speaker of the California Assembly in the 1960s and California State Treasurer in the 1970s and 80s.


• “There are two things that are important in politics. The first is money and I can’t remember what the second one is.” — Mark Hanna, William McKinley’s 1896 presidential campaign manager and later senator from Ohio, in 1895.

Again, please leave other good examples in the comments or email them to me at any time — I’ll keep updating this indefinitely. I’m looking specifically for working politicians (rather than pundits or activists) who describe a tight linkage between money and political outcomes (as opposed to something vaguer).

ML - President Barack Obama has been using his time in Africa to advocate for the rights and dignity of LGBT people. Currently, only 21 of the 56 countries on the continent have decriminalized homosexuality, and only South Africa has legal recognition for trans people.

Obama first arrived in Kenya, where, despite warnings not to discuss LGBT issues, he said in no uncertain terms that LGBT rights are human rights. Aware of his policy of spreading acceptance and protections abroad, many anti-gay Africans have been on their guard. So when a rainbow was seen in the sky as Air Force One landed in Addis Ababa on Sunday, a number of Ethiopian commentators had meltdowns.

The above photo, posted by Ethiopia's Foreign Minister Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, was captioned:

"President Barack Obama just landed in ‪#‎AddisAbaba‬ ‪#‎Ethiopia‬ for his three days official visit. Stunning ‪#‎Rainbow‬ on the skies of Addis as he landed."

Comments quickly turned heated, however, as people lashed out at the LGBT community. Below are a number of comments rounded up by Gay Star News:

"This rainbow is sign of God’s protection from every evil activities like obama’s government allow homosexual not sign of well come."

"So be careful mr obama to your agendas and activities for this 2 days cuz this is Ethiopia not American or Kenya."

"Don’t forget ! In Our motherland Ethiopia , the rainbow symbolizes God’s promise for mankind, not homosexuality!"

"No dirty gay marriage in our continent Africa."

"Please keep your homosexual agenda in Air Force One before u step on the holy land. Thanks."

In Ethiopia, homosexuality is illegal and punishable by up to 15 years in prison. Over the years, President Obama's administration has embraced the promotion of LGBT rights and equality abroad as a cornerstone of foreign policy. Speaking alongside Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta last week, Obama said:

“I believe in the principle of treating people equally under the law, that they are deserving of equal protection under the law, that the state should not discriminate against people based on their sexual orientation."

ML - Is your computer safe? Experts say that a virus posing as an upgrade called "Windows 10" is spreading fast among computers worldwide.


The window above is what you will see if you're a user of Windows 8 or Windows 8.1. Once you click it, it will show you a series of slideshows that tout a new upgrade for the Microsoft's award-winning operating system.

The "free upgrade" will then install a trojan virus to your computer that will automatically update itself every 2 hours until your internet speed and data are both capped. Computers in offices have already been affected at a ratio of 2:1 according to network analysts at the Pentagon. Multiple companies in the US have already filed a state of emergency after their networks crashed with the Windows 10 virus.

Microsoft has denied the existence of Windows 10, saying that they're revamping their operating system by re-releasing it simply as "Windows OS." It will be available on mobile phones, laptops, tablets and desktops.

TEXAS - Back in the day, banks and savings and loans would give away toasters and other gifts to get new customers. Now, the Benny Boyd Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ram dealership in Andrews, Texas, is taking the free-gift idea to a whole ‘nuther level.

A new car will get you spankin’ new gun, pardner.

That’s right. Buy a new car and you could also be a proud owner of a Smith & Wesson 9 mm handgun, an AR-15 assault rifle, or an American Ruger 243 deer rifle.

But it’s not as easy as it sounds. The dealership isn’t handing out weapons. It’s giving a $500 gift certificate to a local farm and ranch supply store, which requires the usual paperwork.



As you might expect, giving away guns is not all about selling cars, as General Manager Strate Colbath explained. “Just a lot of things going on right now around West Texas and a lot of things going on around the US. We thought this promotion would pretty much set us apart and celebrate our 2nd Amendment right.”

It seems to be working. The dealership is having a bang-up sales month that’s hotter than a two-dollar pistol.

NEW DELHI - The Bombay High Court has ruled that regularly coming home late without informing the wife amounts to cruelty, Hindustan Times reported.

“Such type of conduct on the part of the husband… amounts to cruelty to the wife,” observed a division Bench comprising Justice P.B. Majmudar and Justice R.V. More.

It is expected that the husband “at least inform the wife on telephone” so that she won’t wait for him, the high court added while delivering the judgment on Thursday.

Pune-based Deeplakshmi had filed a petition challenging the Pune family court’s May 29 order, which had dissolved her marriage acting on her husband Sachin Zingade’s petition.

Zingade had accused his wife of picking up quarrels with him, suspecting him of having an extramarital affair and insulting his parents and friends whenever they visited his home.

The family court had accepted his contention on the point of suspicion and termed it as cruelty.

The high court, however, clarified that the spouses are entitled to point out their legitimate grievances against each other.

“If the circumstances so warrant, the wife may have some suspicion about the act and behaviour of her husband,” observed the high court.

The family court has also treated Deeplakshmi’s complaint under the Domestic Violence Act against her husband and in-laws as an act of cruelty.

It had concluded that it was a false case as there was no independent evidence or police complaint.

The high court, again, reversed this and said: “Filing of the complaint itself can never be considered as an act of cruelty, unless it is found by positive evidence that it was a false complaint.”

PHILADELPHIA – Angela Gardner, age 35, was shot in both her legs multiple times by Kenneth Bailor.


Angela, described as “always playing Candy Crush” is currently being treated in the emergency room in critical condition after being shot in both her legs. The gunman, 26 year old Kenneth Bailor is currently in custody and will face charges of attempted murder. Kenneth Bailor tells investigators, “I expecting a notification from bae but instead I was getting game invites from Angela.” He supposedly asked Angela Gardner to stop sending him game requests but she never stopped. He claims he even blocked her and she still sent him game invites. Bailor says, “it's like she was asking to be killed”.

“She played Candy Crush way too much,” says Allison Smith, a close friend of Angela. “She was getting annoying, it’s not that surprising that someone shot her, believe it or not.” It is reported Angela sent Kenneth and almost all her friends an average of 14 Candy Crush invites daily to all of her friends. Nurses reported that Angela, although, barely alive and well, asked for her iPhone so she can play “one more round of candy crush before I die.”

It is currently not known if Angela will survive the gunshot wounds, but it is obvious that she believes her life is over.

BEIJING - After NASA's successful flyby of Pluto with its New Horizons spacecraft, China has published a statement that they own the dwarf planet.

The sovereign state's statement has been partially translated and contained the following claims:


"The People's Republic of China is the rightful owner of the ninth planet Pluto. When it was declared by the majority that Pluto was no longer a planet, we did not lose hope for it. That is why our people, the Chinese people, have been designated by the heavens to step foot on the 9th planet and nobody else."

Netizens took to Twitter and Facebook to protest China's claims and trended the topic #PlutoIsAFreePlanet for 15 minutes before being out-trended by #AwwPlutoHasAHeart.

More on this story as it develops.

WASHINGTON - 'No, really, fuck every one of you,' Barack Obama exclaimed to the White House correspondents in a shocking turn of events.

President Obama went out on the White House Correspondents' Association Dinner in rage Saturday night in the wake of conveying a discourse over and over advising the whole space to "fuck off."

"No, genuinely, every single one of you cocksuckers can go fuck yourselves; I fucking loathe every one of you," Obama said to the uproarious giggling and praise of the gathered legislators and media identities.

"Quit giggling. I'm not fucking joking, boneheads. Every one of you assembled here today are a group of cowardly, misleading bits of poop, and I have completely zero admiration for anybody in this room. Along these lines, fuck all of you, and may you and your families go straight to fucking hell."

Critics have lauded Obama's execution at the yearly supper, saying the president's jokes were sharp and his timing has "never been something more."

TEXAS - A man mocked alligators, then jumped in the water -- despite warning signs -- leading to his demise in Texas.

The Orange County Police were called to Burkart's Marina near the Louisiana with reports that Tommie Woodward, 28, and a still unidentified woman were swimming in a lake that's inhabited by large alligators.

Woodward's body was found several hours later. The woman was not injured.

Eyewitnesses told news reporters that Woodward kept shouting "crikey"at the alligators and told the largest, "I will make a belt out of your whole [expletive] crew."

CUPERTINO - In a somewhat shocking move, Apple CEO Tim Cook announced that they have purchased music rival Spotify for a whopping $20 million. Cook stated, "we at Apple want to bring our customers the very best in digital music and by merging with Spotify, we now have the largest digital music library in the world."

Daniel Ek, CEO of Spotify confirmed the merge 2 hours later. "We here at Spotify love to please our loyal fanbase and by doing this, we can open more and more possibilities with more music then anyone could ever wish for. Both for Apple Music and Spotify."



The merge means for anyone who loves to listen to music digitally either on their PC, mobile or tablet device can access a much larger library of titles then before. If anything more will come out of this is yet to be seen.

Apple Music made an impact this month when it decided to compete with popular music streaming services such as Spotify, Tidal and Pandora. The difference between the three is Apple Music's in-house podcasts, radio-like shows and live concerts.

LOS ANGELES - The month of July is recognized as the National Leukemia and Lymphoma Awareness month. During the month of July, Leukemia and Lymphoma awareness is a focus across the world, informing people on screenings, treatments and its prevalence in the world.

Leukemia and Lymphoma are described as cancerous hematologic malignancies which both involve blood. The American Cancer Society (ACS) estimates that there will be 54,791 new cases of leukemia and 22,475 deaths in 2014. As for lymphoma, the American Cancer Society estimates that 83,650 new cases and 17,930 deaths will occur in the United States in 2014. As a result of the cancers, many patients will require either a blood transfusion or bone marrow transfusion.

Retired NBA star, Earvin “Magic” Johnson, has decided to run a blood drive in conjunction with American Red Cross to support the National Awareness Month for Leukemia and Lymphoma. So far, Johnson has had a of 1,827 donors including himself and has saved about 438 patients so far.

Many people are finding it odd and a bit terrifying that Johnson is donating his blood as well since he has been diagnosed as HIV+ since November of 1991. Since then, it has been reported that Magic’s HIV cell count remains so low that it is considered dormant. Although considered dormant, the virus still lives within Johnson.

BEIJING - "Don't torture yourself with Filipino internet speed, subscribe to us now for the fastest broadband in Mainland China," said one of the TV commercials for China Telecom's service.

China Telecom is a Chinese state-owned telecommunication company that also provides wired and wireless internet for 80.33% of Mainland China (Q1 2015). Their average internet speed is 18.3 Mbps, but has limitations on which sites their subscribers can visit.

Philippine telcos came under fire early this year for being in the bottom three of the slowest internet speed in Asia. The average being 3.6 Mbps compared to China's 18.3 Mbps.

Filipinos took to Twitter to voice their displeasure over the Chinese telco ad and pressure has been put on local telcos to boost internet speed. "It's inexcusable that we're one of the most advanced countries in Asia in terms of economy, yet our internet speed is in the bottom 3," said one of the users on Twitter.

THE INDEPENDENT - A 10-month-old baby was rescued floating out at sea 1km from land after her parents forgot about her.

The parents of Melda Ilgin put her in a mini-lilo whilst they relaxed and enjoyed their day at a beach in Çanakkale, Turkey, BGN News reports.

They then forgot about their daughter, leaving her to accidentally float off into the open seas in the direction of the Greek island Lesbos.

Beachgoers reportedly raised the alarm and attempted to rescue her, but to no avail.

The coastguard reportedly located the little girl in a mini-lilo, floating 1km away from the coast

The coastguard was then contacted and a boat and divers were dispatched to locate the little girl.

The infant was finally spotted floating in her mini-lilo one kilometre away from the shore. Coastguard personnel dived into the water and brought her safely onto their boat. She was then reunited with her relieved family back on dry land.
