WHAT ON GOD'S GREEN EARTH IS THIS CREATURE?

This is so weird. The man who owns the Guinness World Record for largest collection of two- headed animals claims he's discovered a creature so strange he doesn't know what it is.

Todd Ray, the owner of the Venice Beach FreakShow, says the animal is so bizarre that he's not giving it a name like he usually does.
"I don't want to call it an alien, but it's definitely alien in form. It's about a foot long and has gill-like ear things below the head. It's got weird eyes and something out of its mouth that looks like a fleshy fang,"

I'm still trying to figure out what type of creature this is.

STEAMY BLIZZARD ROMANCE

While most people were hunkering down in anticipation of winter storm Jonas, one engaged couple wholeheartedly embraced the snowy weather.



Felicia Sam and David Nartey always wanted to do a photo shoot in the snow, so they called up their wedding photographer and scheduled their engagement pictures for Friday afternoon.

The couple, along with photographer Dotun Ayodeji, headed to Soil Conservation Road in Greenbelt, Maryland to capture some sweet, snowy snaps.

"We discussed the idea of doing a snow shoot a while back but we didn't think it would be a blizzard shoot," Dotun said. "We definitely didn't expect the media attention, but just wanted to have fun like I do with my engagement shoots."

GABRIELLE UNION CALLS STACEY DASH A 'CRAZY LADY'

Discussions on race drains me. I look forward to a world where we can just treat each other with love and look pass the color of our skin.
The "lack of diversity" issue on this year's Oscar nominations has got a lot of African Americans riled up. Last week Stacey Dash made some comments with regards to this issue which many found very offensive.


Actress Gabrielle Union fired back in a recent interview and here's what she said;

During an interview with The Associated Press, Union applauded minority groups for holding their own awards shows rather than running to outsiders for validation.
But then she went there by calling Dash “crazy.”

“If you don’t see yourself reflected in mainstream awards, you tend to create your own. Until there is no longer a need for that, I celebrate the ALMAs, the same way I celebrate the Country Music Awards, and the same way I celebrate the BET Awards and the Image Awards, which we’ll all be at in a couple of weeks. The more that we focus on inclusion and a true representation of this country, I think that crazy lady will have less to say.”

APPLE QUARTERLY EARNINGS DROP DURING HOLIDAYS

I'm sure every team Android person will be excited to hear this. Personally, I've compared and contrasted which device is more effective, iOS or Android, and I've come to the conclusion that it all depends on the users and what they find more convenient, accessible, durable and in some cases better camera quality(a good camera gets my attention first).
 

Sales of Apple's iPhone are still increasing, but not by much.

The tech giant on Tuesday reported that fiscal first quarter sales of the iPhone grew by less than one percent, the lowest growth rate for the device since it was first introduced in 2007. In total, Apple sold 74.8 million of the smart phones.

Quarterly earnings came in at $3.28 per share and revenue was $75.9 billion, up just shy of 2 percent year-over-year.

THE NEW "PLANET X"

In solar system news, researchers are now pretty certain there's a ninth planet in the solar system.

Konstantin Batygin and Mike Brown, two CalTech scientists, say the new planet is about 10 times the mass of Earth and has an atmosphere of hydrogen and helium. Science magazine reports that the mysterious "Planet X" moves in a distant orbit beyond Neptune.

The researchers haven't observed Planet X itself, but believe it exists because of the unique configuration of six objects when they come closest to the sun, according to Science.

VIDEO: 'STANDING OVATION" FOR TIWA SAVAGE

I'm really enjoying some of the music videos being churned out of the Nigerian music industry this year. I woke up to a lot of buzz around award winning Nigerian artiste Tiwa Savage of Mavin Records, as she just released a new video titled Standing Ovation featuring YBNL rap superstar Olamide.

I like the concept of the video and the innocence of the children at the end as the kept chanting Tiwa Savage's name. Really cool video and nice song. 

NYC'S MAYOR AND FIRST LADY CRITICIZE OSCARS OVER NO BLACK NOMINEES

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio and first lady Chirlane McCray are calling out the Oscars for the lack of nonwhite Academy Award nominees.

Following the Thursday morning announcement of the 88th Academy Award nominees, marking the second consecutive year in which no minorities were nominated in any of the acting categories, de Blasio and his wife both took to Twitter to share their opinions on the lack of diversity.
McCray posted a picture of each of the best actress nominees Thursday — Jennifer Lawrence, Brie Larson, Cate Blanchett, Saoirse Ronan and Charlotte Rampling — with the caption "!?" and five white female emojis. On Friday, she followed up her first tweet with a second Twitter post: "The ladies are talented, but they do not even begin to represent or reflect the diverse and amazing talent of America 2016."

The other day I watched O'Shea Jackson, Sr. popularly known as Ice cube while he was interviewed by Wendy Williams and when she asked him how he felt about just being nominated for screenplay, he simply said "I'm not surprised, it's the Oscars they do what they do". Something is definitely wrong somewhere.

LADY GAGA DROPS BIG ANNOUNCEMENT

Lady Gaga's third studio effort was a low point in a career of many highs. The singles never popped and the Botticelli-inspired aesthetic just didn't mesh with the content of the album.

After 2014's "Cheek to Cheek," Gaga's collaboration with legend Tony Bennett, however, the 29-year-old proved to all those who doubted her abilities that she was back and better than ever.

On the red carpet at Sunday's Golden Globe Awards, Gaga teased her new album and hinted at when we can expect the new music to drop.

“I am putting out an album this year. I won’t tell you when, but it is coming out this year,” she told reporters.

MACY'S ANNOUNCES THOUSANDS OF JOB CUTS

Bad news from Macy's as it will be cutting up to 4,800 jobs and has slashed its profit outlook after a miserable holiday season.

The nation's largest department store chain, which also operates upscale Bloomingdale's, said about 2,110 of the job cuts will come from reducing staffing levels at stores, eliminating duplication(s) in back office operations and consolidating regional store groups. The remaining 2,710 job cuts will come from the store closings that Macy's announced last fall, says Macy's spokesman Jim Sluzewski.

As of Wednesday, Macy's had about 163,000 workers.
The moves, announced Wednesday, are part of Macy's ongoing campaign to make its operations more nimble to compete in a world where increasingly demanding shoppers are going back and forth between stores and their mobile devices. Analysts expect more retailers to reduce their store count after the holiday season that showed a surge in online spending but lower traffic counts to physical stores.

Just so you know, music icon,  Janet Jackson does not have cancer.
On Wednesday, the singer addressed rumors that she had canceled recent tour dates due to throat cancer.
She made the statement in a video posted to her Twitter account, starting first with a scrolling Star Wars-style text clip that first ran through the lyrics of her Unbreakable track "The Great Forever" with fitting lines such as, "Sources say but where ya gettin' it / Don't create the truth you like."

 

Following, she wrote, "Remember ... believe it when you hear it from my lips. I do not have cancer. I'm recovering. My doctors have approved my concerts as scheduled in Europe, and as I promised, the postponed shows will be rescheduled." She concluded the message, "Thank you for your prayers and love."

MISS UNIVERSE IS HAPPY TO BE THE ONLY WINNER

Miss Universe Pia Wurtzbach supports the competition's choice to crown only one winner, a choice that came into question after Miss Universe host Steve Harvey wrongly gave Miss Colombia the 2015 Miss Universe crown, only to retract it and give it to Wurtzbach herself.

"I think it would be very difficult for two girls to share the crown and the responsibility, to split the responsibilities between the two ladies," Wurtzbach revealed in an interview with HuffPost Live on Tuesday. "I think that, looking forward, this pageant will open a lot of opportunities for all of the girls anyways."

The Miss Philippines title holder looked back on the moment Harvey made his notorious snafu, recalling that she was "obviously very excited" to hear she'd in fact won.
"Of course I wanted to win, like all of the other girls," she recounted. "Back where I'm from, in the Philippines, pageants are a big deal, especially Miss Universe, so this was very exciting for me."

IT MIGHT GET "FAST AND FURIOUS" IN CUBA

The Fast and Furious franchise is known for globetrotting to some of the world's most exotic and exciting locations, taking stars Vin Diesel, Tyrese Gibson, Michelle Rodriguez, Ludacris and the late Paul Walker from the streets of Los Angeles to places like Japan, London and Abu Dhabi.
But the eighth installment could potentially send the racing action series to a place rarely explored by Hollywood films: Cuba.

Sources say Fast and Furious 8's director F. Gary Gray recently returned from a scouting trip that included the previously embargoed nation as part of professional research trip. Sources say the production has moved forward with the paperwork to shoot there, making it the first Hollywood studio film to shoot on the island since the embargo was set in the 1960s.

"Universal Pictures is currently in the process seeking approval from the United States and Cuban governments to explore shooting a portion of the next installment of the Fast & Furious series in Cuba," said a statement from the studio.

News of Justin Bieber and Kourtney Kardashian began to make the rounds after the two were spotted out together on several occasions that sparked romance speculation, and now, the 21-year-old singer is speaking out about the highly talked-about rumors.

In a December 17 interview on radio program The Bert Show, airing on Wednesday, Biebs addressed the situation by jokingly responding to the headline with, "I'm being used, man. What can I say?"

He did, however, add that he has nothing but love for the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star, who went through a very public breakup with longtime boyfriend Scott Disick over the summer.

"No, no, but for real, she's great," Bieber said. "I've known [the family] for years.

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU WITHHOLD ORGASM

I was reading through a couple of articles online and bumped into this one which I found very interesting. It may help give you a new insight about orgasm and everything in between. 

Warning: This post contains content that may be graphic for some readers.

The best orgasms I have ever had, I have had to wait for. The technical term for this is called "Edging." Edging is when you bring a person to the edge of climax and then stop. It's all about coming very close and then pulling away. It's all about heightened arousal, hinting at more, anticipation, waiting, yearning, getting close, hunger and then finally being allowed to let go.

This is certainly not a good way to start the new year for Chris Brown if these allegations are true.
