The Boy Scouts of America made a historic announcement on Wednesday, proclaiming that girls will soon be allowed to become a boy scout.

By 2018, girls will be allowed to become Cub Scouts. They will also be able to earn the coveted rank of Eagle Scout, the organization’s highest honor.

The smallest unit of Cub Scouts will be single gendered – either all boys or all girls “Cub Scout dens will be single-gender — all boys or all girls,” the organization said in a statement. Meanwhile, the larger Cub Scout packs will be open to both genders.

Chief executive of the Boy Scouts, Michael Surbaugh said, “We believe it is critical to evolve how our programs meet the needs of families interested in positive and lifelong experiences for their children.”

By 2019, older girls will be able to join the Boy Scouts. The national organization has been around since February 8, 1910. For the first time ever, females will be able to join the group.

The Owners Of The ‘Breaking Bad’ House Are Installing A Massive Fence To Keep Out Tourists

The White family home from Breaking Bad is one of the most famous and recognizable locales in television history. But the owners of the real-life property of it are paying for it.

Walter White’s fictional home at 308 Negra Arroyo Lane in Albuquerque, New Mexico, is an actual home owned by actual people, who apparently, have such bad tourists problems that they’re installing a giant fence to keep them out.

Joanne Quintana, whose mother owns the house, said that the family feels like they can’t leave the house because when they do, “something happens.” Deciding enough was enough, the Quintana family has decided to install a massive a six-foot-tall high wrought iron fence around the home.

via KOB:

On a weekly basis, Quintana said she loses count of how many people come to the house. Over the first Balloon Fiesta weekend, she estimates it climbed into the hundreds. In 15 minutes, a KOB news crew counted nearly 10 tourists. They can get nasty. Some even steal rocks from the landscaping as souvenirs.

“They feel the need to tell us to close our garage, get out of the picture, you know — tell us what to do on our own property,” Quintana said.

After a particularly messy weekend, the free show is over. Quintana is installing a 6-foot high wrought iron fence. It wasn’t exactly an easy decision; it’s one that feels like a punishment. That fence should be completed soon, but Quintana said people have already tried to climb around the construction to get a picture.

KOB

Even though Breaking Bad has been off the air for over four years now, fans are still clamoring for any taste of the show they can get, even if it means borderline harassing the innocent family that lives there.

Oh, and if you happen to be one of those psycho fans, the address for Walt’s crib is actually 3828 Piermont Drive Northeast, Albuquerque, New Mexico, 87111.

Hilarie Burton: Hottest Photos On The Internet

Hilarie Burton is the former host of MTV’s Total Request Live who has accused actor Ben Affleck of grabbing her breasts during a 2003 episode of TRL. This groping incident was brought to light just hours after Affleck made a statement condemning Harvey Weinstein’s alleged abusive actions relating to his sexual assault and harassment scandal.

On Tuesday night, a Twitter user called out the hypocrisy in Ben Affleck, as he allegedly grabbed Hilarie Burton’s breasts on camera during a 2003 episode of Total Request Live. One Twitter user suggested that Affleck should have ‘kept quiet’ to not reveal skeletons of the past. Weinstein accuser Rose McGoan called Affleck “a liar.”

Burton made her allegations clear on a Twitter thread.

Twitter user, Shanice Brim wrote, “He (Affleck) also grabbed Hilarie Burton’s breasts on TRL once. Everyone forgot though.” Burton popped up on the thread three hours later, writing “I didn’t forget.”

Brim responded to Burton, writing “I’m so sorry that happened to you. It’s infuriating that people never bring up all the gross, predatory things he’s done.”

Burton responded by saying, “Seriously, thank you for that. I was a kid.” The actress was 21-years-old at the time of the incident.

Affleck said he was “saddened and angry” over “sickening claims” of sexual assault made against his former benefactor Harvey Weinstein. When allegations over groping Hilarie Burton’s breasts in 2003, Affleck apologized to the actress and admitted that his behavior was “inappropriate.”

Burton wrote that she had to laugh off Affleck’s alleged boob-grab, so she wouldn’t cry. She later tweeted a clip from the 2003 TRL interview featuring Affleck. “He wraps his arm around me and comes over and tweaks my left boob,” she said.  “I’m just like, ‘what are you doing’…Some girls like a good tweakage here and there – I like a high five.’

A female producer said, “I don’t know what happened but Hilarie was like ‘ooo’.  There was a little squeeze, I don’t know.”

During the interview, Affleck was around 21-years-old. He is heard asking the host, “how old are you – 19?”

Burton is famous for her starring role as Peyton Sawyer on the former WB/CW drama One Tree Hill, and as Sara Ellis on the USA crime drama White Collar. Her first big break in show-business started back in 1999 on MTV’s Total Request Live. She is currently married to Walking Dead actor Jeffrey Dean Morgan.

Apple CEO Tim Cook appeared at Oxford University to discuss the opening of The Oxford Foundry, a new “innovation space” open to students at the school.

In Conversation with Apple CEO Tim Cook: You Can Watch

Date: Wednesday October 11, 2017
Start Time: 12:22 pm PDT
Location: Oxford University
Website: YouTube


What is the Oxford Foundry?

Hoping to create an environment with a sense of diversity and creativity, the Foundry aims to offers workshops on themes like self-awareness and team-building. A collection of startups are to be expected throughout the year, and the Foundry will serve as a needed co-working area. The space had been developed by prominent tech leaders, such as Brent Hoberman, Phil Libin, and Biz Stone.

In a statement describing the event, according to MacRumors, “We’re opening our doors! Join us for drinks and canapés, and take part in a panel Q&A with special guest Apple CEO Tim Cook, the Vice-Chancellor of the University of Oxford, Prof Louise Richardson, Dean Peter Tufano of Saïd Business School and Ana Bakshi, Director of the Oxford Foundry.”

“We invite you to take a look around our brand new space in the company of other entrepreneurially-minded people from across the University and beyond.”

Early on in the event, Cook described the importance of finding a line of work that you love and enjoy, saying, “I realized the purpose of life wasn’t to love your job, it was to serve humanity in a broad way. And the outcome of doing that would mean you love your job. I realized I wasn’t in a place to do that, so sometime thereafter, I switched companies.”

“It was only after joining Apple where my values and my work aligned, and that has made all the difference for me.”

While for him, it wasn’t actually a simple decision to join Apple, as a lot had told him to stay where he was, but he ended up going with his gut. And now, he’s making an appearance at Oxford because of his work…you could say that following your heart and using your mind are not mutually exclusive. In fact, as Cook added, knowing what you want get be pragmatic in your work, as, “You can bet if you love it, there are many other people out there that are going to love it too. That fundamental saying drives Apple.” After all, people design products based on what they want and need.

Ripping off the bandage, Cook also reminded the audience that they will fail, failing is a natural part of life and that failing is a good thing. As he spoke, “There will be times that you fail on a spectacular basis. I certainly have. You have to have the faith that it will pass. Look in the mirror and watch the person breathe. It didn’t kill you. You’re not dead. It’s not the biggest thing in the world. It will pass.”

“And I do that many times a day sometimes. Do that for a while and you won’t have to remind yourself anymore. You’ll be able to take these failures… and in fact, you’ll view them not as failures but as things learned, and it won’t be so detrimental.”

Tim Cook is currently the CEO of Apple, having once served as the Chief Operating Officer, under its founder, the late Steve Jobs. While making a recent appearance at Oxford University, he discussed the importance failing in your career and going with your intuition when choosing your life goals. With this kind of mindset, let’s look at what kind of money such a man is worth!

Tim Cook’s net worth is $400 million

Cook helped turn Apple around and eventually became the company’s CEO after Steve Jobs stepped down in 2011, a move that proved lucky now that his net worth is $400 million, according to Bankrate.

1982-1997

After graduating from Auburn University, Cook got his start in the tech industry with IBM, a company he stayed with for 12 years, where he managed to work his way up to becoming the company’s North American Fulfillment director. He also later served as Chief Operating Officer for Intelligent Electronics, and later became the Vice President of Corporate Materials for Compax in 1997, according to Chron.

1998-2010

In 1998, however, he eventually got his start with the company he would eventually become a CEO for. While a chief operating officer for Apple, he had made the company profitable, especially with the arrival of the iPod, iPhone and iPad.

2011-Present

As mentioned, in 2011, Cook took the role of CEO after Jobs stepped down from the role and named him as his successor, with him passing away the same year. As CEO, Cook is also a member of Apple’s board of directors, and also helps to continue Jobs’ legacy. In 2015, he was granted the Ripple of Change Award from the Robert. F. Kennedy Center.

Yo this aiport is lit! Just look at these flight attendants having the time of their professional career:

Facebook

During a flight delay at Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport, a bored passenger took it upon himself to make the time go by a little faster. His solution? Full blown karaoke with the terminal speaker.

The video starts as the unidentified HERO appears to be wrapping up the song “Wonderwall” by Oasis, but then he immediately pivots into Blackstreet’s “No Diggity”, which got all of Gate B7 rocking.

via Daily Mail:

Delighting his audience with the random rendition, the handsome man delivers a flawless rendition of the R&B track, which peaked at No1 in the US Billboard Hot 100 in 1996.
Adding some funky dance moves to the mix, his performance generated huge cheers from the appreciative crowd, who were clearly fascinated by the entertainment.

He states that the incident happened after the Southwest Airlines team joked that people would have to sing if they asked them a question during the delay. The footage has generated plenty of cheer from social media users.

With all the terror and tragedy in the world these days, it truly is a wonder to see a bunch of strangers come together and share a laugh.

This is what humanity is supposed to look like, so soak it all in.


Anheuser-Busch & Lyft Partner Up to Give Ohio State Students Free Rides On The Weekends

In an effort to combat drinking and driving, the city of Columbus, Ohio has partnered with Lyft and Anheuser-Busch to create a safe rides and law enforcement program.

According to Zachary Keizer, a Lyft consumer communications specialist, the objective of this program is to “raise awareness and change behavior around the issue of drunk driving in Columbus.” Keizer said Anheuser-Busch and Lyft will provide up to 2,000 Lyft rides each weekend from now through December 2017, with the hoping of ensuring that people in Columbus get to and from their destinations safely.

Sgt. Rich Weiner, a Columbus Division of Police spokesman, said that the target of the program is the OSU football games, fall weekends, and several other high-risk fall holidays.

The Lantern reports that of all the fatal crashes in Columbus, about 60% are due to drunk driving, adding that the statistic is “significant regarding both loss of life and the costs.”

“Everyone deserves a designated driver and by giving riders in Columbus access to free rides each week, we hope everyone will think twice before getting behind the wheel after drinking, and look to Lyft as a safe way to get home from a night out.”

Kizer says that Anheuser-Busch will share a ride code on its Facebook and Instagram channels. The code is available for use by those older than 21 years old to claim a $30 Lyft Ride credit (two $15 one-way rides) to use that weekend.

Brent Allsup, a Kennesaw State University professor, was arrested after he was found passed out and intoxicated by police at his university’s student center.

According to police, Allsup, who began working at the Georgia university in August 2007, had consumed “three to five beers” before driving to the campus. Police reports state that they found him asleep inside the school’s student center around 10PM on October 5.

Authorities then searched Allsup’s car where they found Hydrocodone, Xanax and amphetamine salts. They also found a half-empty, 16-ounce aluminum beer bottle in the center console.

Tiffany Capuano, a spokeswoman for Kennesaw State University, said that Allsup worked in the business college’s school of accounting part-time, but has been suspended due to the investigation.

According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Allsup was booked into Cobb County jail around 7 PM on October 6. He was charged with three felony drug charges and an open-container misdemeanor count.

Allsup was released from jail around 2:30 AM on a $11,220 bond.

The AJC says Allsup’s next court date was not listed in the court’s online database.

For prison inmates, as horrifying as the experience of incarceration can be, one of the hardest parts is realizing you might not have a good chance of a easy life once you finish paying off your debt to society. If being a convict wasn’t already a blemish on your record, you are competing for jobs with people who who either in school or employed in the outside world. The University of Iowa hopes to help inmates by developing a college-in-prison program, and is starting with a series of speaker classes involving men from the Iowa Medical & Classification Center.

‘I want to be something more than this charge’

Topics in the fall speaker series include World War 1 poetry, religion, human rights, civil liberties, yoga and job interviews. Kathrina Litchfield, the programs coordinator for the school’s Center for Human Rights, was the one to have planned the series, hoping that it will one day grow into a college-in-prison program which would allow inmates to earn, or even finish, their college degrees.

“The hope is that evidence will show that Pell grants for incarcerated students are a sound investment, and college-in-prison programs nationwide will be able to make the grants available to their enrolled incarcerated students,” Litchfield explained in a statement.

“We’ll be problem-solving together how to matriculate students, provide accreditation toward a degree or complete unfinished degrees as transfer students, provide for costs, add teaching at Oakdale (IMCC) to professors’ course loads, make tuition accessible, provide for college-ready instruction, etc.”

Currently, Litchfield and her colleagues have friends in high places. The program has support from university president, Bruce Harreld, spoke to the students involved back in September and plans to return for a special banquet and certificate presentation this upcoming November. They also had help developing the program with Bard College, a private school in upstate New York, helped Litchfield to develop the program. Bard had been granting college degrees to student inmates since 2005, eventually becoming the largest college-in-prison program in the United States.

Inmates who participate in education programs are said to have a 43% lower chance of recidivism, according to the nonprofit organization, RAND. Inmates also have a better chance of employment after release, around 13% higher, if they were involved in either academic or vocational education programs than those who did not.

Ryan McKelvey, an inmate who is currently serving time for a third-degree sex abuse case out of Polk County said that he signed up for the series because he felt it was important for any chance of success outside of prison. As he explained in a statement, according to The Gazette, “I want to be something more than this charge…With education, there is identity.” “I see it as an opportunity to do something different in my life,” added Asa Winters, another inmate.

You’re welcome. And I’m saying you’re welcome because I’m about to make your day.

Ready?

I don’t think you’re ready (in order from least hot to most hot, which when talking about Alexis Ren, is kind of redundant):

This morning, Sports Illustrated made it official by announcing Alexis Ren as their latest SI Swimsuit model, meaning the “hottest girl on Instagram” has finally made the jump into the mainstream.

Ren, the 20-year-old Southern California native, is the fifth member of SI Swimsuit 2018 revealed so far, joining Chase Carter, Robin Holzken, Sailor Brinkley Cook, and Anne De Paula.

Alexis Ren is on a rocketship to the moon and there’s nothing anyone can do to stop her. Anyone who doubts the existence of evolution, I want you to take at a woman from the 1920’s, and a look at Alexis now, and tell me there isn’t some evolutionary progress at play here.
