If you just can't handle photos of , there's a name for that

It's a phenomenon called "cute aggression." I've got it bad and you probably do too.

Seeing something cute can bring out a type of verbal and physical aggression in some people, according to a recent study. Maybe you've felt this way — you see a photo of a puppy or watch a video of a baby giggling and you can't help but grit your teeth, ball your hands into fists, and scream out, "Ahhhh, I can't even handle it!" Whatever you're looking at is so adorable it actually drives you crazy.

Eastwood Got A New — & It's Adorable

Today in being jealous of celebrities, Scott Eastwood (son of Clint and star of The Longest Ride) has an adorable new puppy. It is cute and, in all likelihood, based on our extensive research of other puppies, fuzzy and warm and cuddly in his arms. Granted, it looks like it desperately wants to escape his embrace. But puppies are wiggly. They need to roam free.

Eastwood posted the photo of his new pup on Instagram. He captioned it, "Well.....we caved. Freddy is the newest member of the family. Damn puppies make me happy.....I mean really happy."

Emma Roberts is fashion hit at Teen Choice Awards

Emma Roberts won praise from the fashion world for the Peter Pilotto midi-dress she donned at the Teen Choice Awards 2015.

The 'We're The Millers' actress presented an award to 'The Hunger Games' star Josh Hutcherson in the white and rainbow pastel print dress that made sure she stood out from her 'Scream Queens' co-stars on stage.

Emma, 24, took to the mic with 'Glee' actress Lea Michele, 28, and 21-year-old Keke Palmer, who both opted for white outfits at the annual event.

However, it was the 70s-inspired colour palette of the blonde beauty's frock that drew the most attention and stood out from her young peers.

Hollywood Reporter's style blog Pret-a-reporter praised the star on her choice of stylish ensemble.

An Instagram post: '' in Peter Pilotto and in looked summertime chic at The Teen Choice Awards.''

Meanwhile, 'Modern Family' actress Sarah Hyland was saved from flashing the audience as she stumbled over a neon light on stage, but was able to spring straight back up, thanks to her loose fitting buttercream yellow shorts and crop top ensemble from Christian Siriano.

She told the crowd: ''I do that sometimes, guys. I'm awkward like that, you know.''

The Moto X Pure Edition is launching September 3rd



Motorola's flagship Moto X Pure Edition (known as the Moto X Style outside the US) will be available beginning September 3rd. The company had previously announced it was coming in September, but didn't specify an exact date until today. The news was announced on Twitter, though Motorola bizarrely has since deleted the tweet. The new Moto X starts at $399 and features some impressive hardware for that price point. It's got a large 5.7-inch Quad HD display, 21-megapixel camera (that Motorola seems very proud of), and turbo charging that the company says bests all competitors. Users can also expand the built-in storage thanks to support for microSD cards. And as always, customization through Moto Maker remains a big draw; this year's model offers the most personalization options yet.

FM radio's mini-comeback

Thanks to smartphones, we have access to nearly every song ever made with a few taps of the screen. Because of that, the glory days of FM radio are long gone. Streaming services like Spotify and Apple Music provide curated and custom stations for people to listen and discover new songs. But AT&T and the Rdio app are keeping FM radio relevant.

NextRadio says it's working with AT&T to activate FM radio on the phones it sells. When you buy nearly any smartphone today, it already has a FM receiver inside. The problem is carriers don't activate them because they don't require an internet connection and don't use network data. If you don't use network data, the carrier can't make money off you using the phone. But NextRadio--an app that helps you tune in to FM stations--could give AT&T a cut of ad revenue from people listening in. Having access to FM radio on your phone is also handy in the event of an emergency where you don't have access to the internet and need to listen to local information.

There's also Rdio Live, a new feature from the Rdio app. People can use it to tune in to over 500 broadcast stations across the country. If you hear a song you like, you can mark it as a favorite song and save it to a list. The feature also gets you access to talk and sports programs. So for Rdio, it combines curated music and podcast-like programs to its app. That helps it compete with Pandora and Apple Music. With the help of Rdio and AT&T, FM radio is still finding its way to your ears without using an old dial.

Facebook to Expand Live Streaming Feature to Verified Profiles: Reports

Facebook is said to be bringing the newly unveiled 'Live' video streaming feature in the Mentions app to more users, according to a report. To do this, Facebook will be giving user with verified Profiles access to the Mentions app.

"In the future, Mentions will be available to verified Profiles," said Facebook when requested by other users with verified Pages, reports TechCrunch. Beyond this confirmation, Facebook has not anything further about expanding the reach of its live streaming product that rivals Meerkat and Twitter's Periscope.

Facebook last week launched the live video streaming feature in the Facebook Mentions app, and announced public figures already using the feature include Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Serena Williams, Martha Stewart, and Michael Buble. For now, the feature is only available to public figures with verified Pages.

The new feature introduced by the social media giant runs the same way as rival Twitter's Periscope and Meerkat. However, the major difference here is that unlike Meerkat live stream videos, which vanish as soon as they are over, and the Periscope videos, to which users have access to 24 hours after the video has been shot, the Facebook Live videos will be permanent and can later be accessed by users at any point of time.

Whenever a celebrity starts shooting a live video, it would appear in the News Feed of the celebrity's fans, from where they can like, share, or comment on the video. Also during the broadcast, Facebook will show the number of viewers and a real-time stream of comments.

Facebook was recently also reportedly building a Twitter-like mobile app that will send breaking news alerts straight to your phone.

Have you Seen Dark Side of the Moon Ever ...


Nooooooo.....


Then See it here ....

Nasa Has Captured the Fully Illuminated "Dark Side" of the Moon



The far side of the moon was not seen until 1959 when the Soviet Luna 3 spacecraft returned the first images of the region.

Dark Side Of The Moon, Never Visible From Earth, Captured In New Images


NASA’s Earth Polychromatic Imaging Camera (EPIC), installed on the Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR) satellite, has captured images of the fully illuminated “dark side” of the moon, which is never visible from Earth. The unique view of the moon was caught on camera when it was moving in front of the sunlit side of Earth last month.

The images were taken between 3:50 p.m. and 8:45 p.m. EDT on July 16 when DSCOVR was orbiting the Earth from 1 million miles away. Other than the far side of the moon, the images also show the satellite moving over the Pacific Ocean near North America. EPIC constantly observes the fully illuminated side of the Earth as it rotates.

This animation features actual satellite images of the far side of the moon, illuminated by the sun, as it crosses between the DSCOVR spacecraft's Earth Poly...

Kendall Jenner and Nick Jonas ‘dating’

Nick Jonas, Kendall Jenner reportedly dating - Gigi Hadid played matchmaker

The 19-year-old model is rumoured to be dating the Jealous singer after being set up by her friend Gigi Hadid and Nick’s brother Joe, who are a couple. After Nick’s break-up from Olivia Culpo in June, their matchmaking seems to have come at the right time.

“They had a flirty chemistry from the start,” a source told Us Weekly of their text exchanges. “Nick was single and looking to date and there was an obvious attraction. He absolutely thinks she’s hot.”

Gigi and Kendall are close friends thanks to their respective modelling careers. And it’s believed that the 20-year-old’s desire to have her pal close by as much as possible is one of the reasons for her matchmaking.

“Gigi wants Kendall around all the time. She thinks it would be fun for all of them to hang out,” the source added. "They are all going to end up hanging out regardless, so it seems like a simple situation, which could be a lot of fun.”

Kendall and the 22-year-old are reportedly taking their fledgling romance slowly and away from the glare of the media.

President Obama Kicks Off 'Personal' Trip to Kenya

President Obama kicked off his historic and “personal” trip to Kenya today as he made his first public event of his four-day visit to Africa, a continent he said was "on the move."

“I'm proud to be the first U.S. president to visit Kenya,” the president said at the Global Entrepreneurship Summit. “Obviously, this is personal for me. There’s a reason why my name's Barack Hussein Obama. My father came from these parts.”

Obama attended the summit with 20 members of Congress and 200 American investors to promote U.S.-African trade, technological innovation and his Power Africa initiative, which aims to double access to electricity over five years.

The president discussed how quickly people can build start-up companies by comparing it to the speed of sending text messages, though he admitted he is not a fast texter himself.

“You can get a start-up moving, and if it's the right idea, it can travel with the speed of -- you know -- how fast you can text," he said.

"I can't text very fast, but I notice Malia and Sasha, they both,” Obama said as he made a texting gesture with his hands.

After addressing the summit, Obama met with six business owners who work with Power Africa. From solar panels to mobile phone payment systems, they showed him the inventions and businesses they have started to help spread access to electricity across the continent.

World Cup 2018: Teams await qualifying draw in Russia

The home nations will find out who they will face when the qualifying draw for the 2018 World Cup takes place on Saturday in St Petersburg, Russia.
England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland are among 141 nations who will be in the draw.
European sides will be placed into nine groups - seven with six teams and two of five sides - with Roy Hodgson's side knowing they will be in a pool of six.
The draw, at 16:00 BST, is live on the BBC Sport website and Red Button.
How does the European draw work?

Russia have already qualified as hosts, and the other 52 member nations have been split into six pots based on Fifa's July rankings. Gibraltar are not involved as they are not a member of Fifa, despite being a Uefa member.
The nine top seeds in Europe - including Wales and England - will first be drawn into a group. For TV rights purposes, England, Germany, Spain and the Netherlands will be drawn into groups of six teams, as will Italy and France from pot two.

Model behaviour! Casual Cara Delevingne keeps her energy levels up with healthy snacks as she tirelessly promotes her new movie Paper Towns

Wearing a black purple tracksuit with matching boots and a T-shirt, she was clearly off-duty as she enjoyed a break between promo engagements.
Going make-up free for the occasion, she wore her hair straight in a side-parting, while capping her look with a pair of designer sunglasses.

She's the queen of laid back luxe and there's no-one who can pull off those tomboy looks quite like her, so we're always excited when we see Cara Delevingne in one of her casual sporty ensembles.
It's no secret that she's a fan of wearing menswear items and when she wears them this well why not. As a fan of the bomber jacket, Cara's latest bold blue tracksuit top is from the Pharrell superstar range at Adidas, and although labelled as a menswear item, there's no reason why this can't be unisex. Snap the jacket up on the Adidas website (currently 30% off) and while you're there you can pick up her bright blue sneakers from the same superstar collection

Uber use surges among business travelers

Uber is replacing cabs for professionals on the go.
It's just one way that business travelers are embracing the new sharing economy -- and ditching traditional modes of travel as a result.

"There's also a decrease in rental car usage, and it's at the benefit of Uber," said Bob Neveu, CEO of Certify, a travel and expense firm.
Certify looked at $8 million in transactions across North America from April through June.
Uber accounted for 55% of all rides, up from 18% just one year ago. Cabs came in second (43%) and Lyft rides made up just 1%. The largest shares of Uber customers are in San Francisco, Dallas and Los Angeles.
According to Neveu, the fact that business travelers are adopting new services is partly a result of companies changing their policies. In the past, many had prohibited private services like Uber and Airbnb -- but that's starting to change.
"They're seeing [sharing economy services] as a viable option -- and potentially a cost-saver," he said. "A lot of times, companies are more interested in the dollar amount."
The report found that taxi rides were more expensive than both Uber and Lyft -- an average $34.48 compared to $30.03 and $22.51, respectively.
Airbnb rentals still account for a small number of bookings, but they're growing -- up 143% from last quarter. Business travelers are also happier when they stay at an Airbnb property. Certify asks customers to rate their stays: Airbnb earns an average of 4.72 stars out of 5, compared to 4.04 for hotels.

Greece licks wounds after bailout vote, ECB move expected

Greece awoke with a political hangover on Thursday after parliament approved a stringent bailout program, thanks to the votes of the pro-European opposition, amid the worst protest violence this year.

The vote, vital to unlocking emergency financing from European partners as early as Thursday, left Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras weakened by a revolt in his leftist Syriza party but clinging to power for now.

The European Central Bank's governing council, meeting in Frankfurt, was expected to ease its funding squeeze on shuttered Greek banks, the first step toward permitting them to reopen after nearly three weeks' closure while cash rationing and other capital restrictions will remain in place.

European finance ministers were to hold a conference call on Thursday morning to agree on a plan for 7 billion euros in bridging funds to enable Greece to meet its immediate debt service needs and avoid defaulting on the ECB next Monday.

All 28 EU countries are expected to contribute, despite the reluctance of non-euro members such as Britain and the Czech Republic, after a compromise was found to use euro zone funds to guarantee their ring-fenced contributions.

Tsipras won 229 out of the 300 parliamentary votes in favor of the agreement he struck on Monday with euro zone partners on austerity measures and liberal economic reforms tougher than those rejected by voters in a July 5 referendum

Diagnosing what ails Nick Saban and Alabama football

It's more than a little bit odd, the idea that Alabama football is in need of much fixing.

In each of the last two seasons — when you might recall, Alabama did not win the national championship — the Tide were a few plays away from playing for one. There was the "Kick-Six" by Auburn in 2013. Last season, there was Ohio State rallying from a first-half deficit to pull an upset in a Sugar Bowl semifinal.

But after winning three national titles in four seasons from 2009-12, the standards are fairly high. Which is why Tide coach Nick Saban is again trying to figure out what happened, and why the Alabama offseason feels a little urgent and unsettled.

"It's going to be a challenge," Saban said, "for our team to reestablish the identity that we would like to play with."

It might have been an issue with team chemistry. Or that Alabama joined the up-tempo crowd and then couldn't keep up, running out of gas late in the season. In his appearance Wednesday at SEC Media Days, Saban suggested those were factors, and maybe they were.

Johnny Depp's Wife Charged With Illegally Bringing Dogs Pistol and Boo Into Australia

Johnny Depp's wife, Amber Heard, has been charged with illegally bringing the couple's dogs to Australia — an incident that captured global attention after the nation's agriculture minister angrily ordered the pooches to get out of the country or face death.

Heard was charged this week with two counts of illegally importing Pistol and Boo into Australia and one count of producing a false document, the Commonwealth Department of Public Prosecutions said on Thursday.

The importation charges carry a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison and a fine of 102,000 Australian dollars ($75,000). The false document charge, which relates to information on an incoming passenger card, carries a penalty of up to one year in prison and a fine of AU$10,200.

The doggie debacle began in May, after Agriculture Minister Barnaby Joyce accused Depp, 52, of smuggling the couple's Yorkshire terriers aboard his private jet when he returned to Australia to resume filming of the fifth movie in the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series.

Australia has strict quarantine regulations to prevent diseases such as rabies from spreading to its shores. Bringing pets into the country involves applying for a permit and quarantine on arrival of at least 10 days.

"If we start letting movie stars — even though they've been the sexiest man alive twice — to come into our nation (with pets), then why don't we just break the laws for everybody?" Joyce said at the time. "It's time that Pistol and Boo buggered off back to the United States."

Officials gave Depp and Heard 72 hours to send Pistol and Boo back to the U.S., warning that if they weren't, the dogs would be euthanized. A Department of Agriculture officer later escorted the tiny terriers from the couple's mansion on Queensland's Gold Coast to the airport, where the dogs boarded a flight to the U.S. just hours before the deadline
