Facebook launches Timeline feature


Facebook Timeline goes live--out with old, in with new
By Don Reisinger | CNET.com
Facebook's more than 800 million members will now be able to convert their profiles to the new Timeline design.
The world's largest social network announced Timeline in September, and now it's available worldwide. The feature replaces current user profiles and dramatically overhauls how information is shared on the service.
"It's a way to tell all the important stories from your life on a single page," Facebook co-founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg said when he announced the new feature at his company's F8 Conference.

5 Surprising Ways to Prevent Wrinkles


Genes influence how fast your skin will age, but unhealthy habits accelerate the damage. The term “smoker’s face” has long been used to describe the telltale pattern of deep lines and creases that form around the mouth and eyes of tobacco users, from constant squinting sparked by smoke irritation and lip puckering while inhaling. Some studies show that smoking cuts production of elastin and collagen by up to 40 percent, leading to premature fine lines that may start to appear as early as age 20, offering yet another reason to snuff out the habit if you smoke.

What else can you do to fight skin creases? Here’s a look at science-based strategies that help keep your skin looking young and healthy:

Woman Leaves $13M Fortune to Pet Cat


A 4-year-old stray cat that was rescued from the streets of Rome has inherited a $13 million fortune from its owner, the wealthy widow of an Italian property tycoon.
Maria Assunta left the fortune to her beloved kitty Tommaso when she died two weeks ago at the age of 94. The feline's newfound riches include cash, as well as properties in Rome, Milan and land in Calabria.
As her health began to fail two years ago, Assunta, who had no children, began to seek out a way to see that Tommaso was properly cared for after she died. In November 2009, she bequeathed her entire estate to the alley cat that she'd rescued.

6 Foods That Boost Fertility



Did you know that eating ice cream can help women get pregnant—but pigging out on sweets can put young men’s fertility at risk? Guys who hope to be dads should also rethink that double cheeseburger with a side of fries. A Harvard study presented at the American Society of Reproductive Medicine’s annual meeting in October linked a “Western” diet that’s heavy on red meat, refined carbs, and sweets—including sugary drinks—to poorer-quality sperm in men ages 18 to 22, while another new study found that guys who binged on trans fats (typically found in cookies, cakes, pastries, crackers, and fried foods) had lower sperm motility, meaning that their swimmers were less likely to reach their partner’s eggs.

Temper Tantrums: What Your Toddler is Trying to Tell You (and How You Can Help)

By Lylah M. Alphonse, Senior Editor, Yahoo! Shine | Moments Of Motherhood

When your toddler is melting down, it's easy to chalk the tantrum up to anger or frustration (and to get angry and frustrated yourself). But a new study that analyzed the sounds that tots make when their pitching a fit shows that there may be more to a tantrum than just a lot of screaming -- and may offer parents a way to cope.
In the study, which was published in the journal "Emotion," scientists recorded the sounds toddlers make during tantrums and discovered that not only does each type of sound (screaming, yelling, crying, whining, and fussing) have its own "distinct acoustic features," there's a definite pattern to the vocalizations as well.

Angelina Jolie Says She’s Lucky She ‘Didn’t Die Young’

Sometimes it's hard to remember that before Angelina Jolie became a mother of six and one of Hollywood's highest-profile humanitarians, she was a troubled upstart living her life on the edge.
But Jolie herself hasn't forgotten, and she's telling "60 Minutes" that she's fortunate to have made it out of her adolescence alive.
"I went through heavy, darker times and I survived them," the 36-year-old Academy Award-winner said in an interview that airs this Sunday. "I didn't die young, so I'm very lucky. There are other artists and people who didn't survive certain things."
When pressed on the subject, Jolie held back but said something sure to let curious imaginations run wild.

Benetton ‘Unhate’ Ad Campaign Features World Leaders Kissing

World leaders are shown kissing in Benettons Unhate ad campaign promoting tolerance. The digitally manipulated images, U.S. President Barack Obama and China's President Hu Jintao in this one, are part of a new campaign by Benetton Group, known for their controversial ads. (Photo credit: Fabrica)

At first, the images are shocking. President Obama planting a kiss on Chinese President Hu Jintao’s lips. German Chancellor Angela Merkel smooches French President Nicolas Sarkozy, her nation’s economic rival.

These images aren’t the latest political scandal. They’re a new ad campaign from Italian clothing company United Colors of Benetton called “Unhate.”

‘Sexiest Man Alive’ Stirs Backlash on the Web

People magazine has bestowed the title of "Sexiest Man Alive" this year to the actor Bradley Cooper. And the Web response has been, well, less than turned on. Comments on blogs across the Web have been pouring in, many of them favoring a different man for the title.
The arguments for Cooper include the 36-year-old's "tousled hair," "blue eyes," and fluent French. But those assets don't do it for many a disappointed lady…and man. A very unscientific poll on Yahoo! asked: "Is Bradley Cooper the sexiest man alive?" It received an overwhelming "no" vote. (Add your say here.)
Here's what the blog-o-sphere is saying: You could practically hear the great big sigh of sadness that Ryan didn't make the cover. Not Ryan Reynolds, that ab-tastic star who was named the "Sexiest Man Alive" in 2010. These disappointed fans wanted to see Ryan Gosling get the top honor. As one reader decried on Entertainment Weekly's blog Popwatch, "Ryan was robbed!!!" Another added, "This year's real SEXIEST MAN is RYAN GOSLING, hands down!!!!" A third chimed in, "I agree, Ryan should have gotten the cover."

Justin Bieber Baby Daddy Accuser Mariah Yeater Withdraws Paternity Lawsuit

 

Justin Bieber's self acclaimed baby mama has dismissed her paternity lawsuit against the singer ... TMZ has reported.

The suit was quietly dismissed late last week.  What's more, Mariah Yeater's lawyers, Lance Rogers and Matt Pare, have quit her ... withdrawn from the case. 

As we first reported, Justin not only planned to take a DNA test when he returned to the U.S., he was going to sue Yeater and her lawyers for making a bogus claim.  And, as we reported, Justin's lawyer, Howard Weitzman, called the attorneys and informed them a suit was looming.

Apparently, they got the message.

13 Things You Never Knew About Your Weight


1. It Really Is Genetic
When scientists first discovered it in certain chubby mice, they called it simply the fatso gene. Years later, when they scoured the human genome for markers that increased vulnerability to type 2 diabetes, the fatso gene (now more politely called FTO) showed up there too. Turns out, people with two copies of the gene were 40 percent more likely to have diabetes and 60 percent more likely to be obese than those without it. Those with only one copy of the gene weighed more too.

Scientists now suspect that there are lots of fat genes. "There could be as many as 100 of them," says Claude Bouchard, PhD, executive director of the Pennington Biomedical Research Center at Louisiana State University System, "each adding a couple of pounds here and a pound or two there. That's a noticeable difference when it comes to how much more fat we need to burn off."

As much as 16 percent of the population has two copies of the FTO gene, and half of us have one copy. So far, scientists suspect that the other possible obesity-promoting genes have a small effect compared with FTO. The good news? "A genetic predisposition isn't necessarily a life sentence," says Bouchard. Exercising regularly can offset the risk.

Mel Gibson: Sexiest Man Alive, 1985

People Magazine's annual quest for the Sexiest Man Alive will come to an end Wednesday when the winner is announced. This year, the editors are taking a lighter approach, launching "funny is the new sexy" campaign which will likely lead to a more unconventionally attractive winner. After 26 years, they've learned a valuable lesson. Brooding five o' clock shadows and bright, blue wild man eyes don't always make for the ideal guy.

Brad Pitt Plans to Quit Acting, but May Have More Kids With Angelina Jolie

All good things must come to an end. Even, it seems, Brad Pitt's acting career.
In an interview with Australia's 60 Minutes, Pitt reveals he has an exit strategy planned for his movie star career...and it's sooner than you'd think!
Another shocker? He and Angelina Jolie might not be done having kids! Seriously!


When asked how much longer he'd like to keep acting, the 47-year-old answers, "Three years."
Yes, Pitt says he plans to step off-camera and get behind it by the age of 50. "I am really enjoying the producing side and development of stories and putting those pieces together," Pitt says. "Getting stories to the plate that might have had a tougher times otherwise."
Something he may not be ready to say goodbye to? The possibility of expanding the Jolie-Pitt family! "You know, I don't know that we're finished," Pitt says. "I don't know yet. I don't know."
With six children, Pitt says he "obviously" enjoys the chaos and that the lack of sleep is fine with him right now. "Those late nights are so fun when one of them's up or those mornings when they get up and make pancakes or something. That's what it's about."

Which I'm excited for. One thing I don't want her to do is ever like get lost in the pop world. .. She's a f*cking amazing rapper," he gushed to Sterogum.

5 Celebs Who Divorced Before Anyone Knew They Were Married

If you thought you knew everything there was to know about celebrities, you were wrong. The following five stars managed to keep their love lives secret for years until divorce eventually outed them.

Emmy Rossum
 Emmy Rossum and music producer husband Justin Siegel were secretly married for a year and a half before calling it quits in 2009. They paid to keep their marriage license confidential, but they couldn't keep their private lives completely out of the spotlight as the media got wind of their divorce papers.

R. Kelly

R. Kelly had two secret marriages: one to late singer Aaliyah for five months when she was just 15 years old. The marriage was annulled in 1995. The other was to Andrea Lee. They were married for 11 years with three children, but separated in 2005 and divorced in 2009. Their separation happened shortly after Kelly was accused of having sex with a minor. The charges were later dropped.

Brad Pitt Grows Out His Hair Again: Time For An Intervention?

Clean cut in May.
Back to his shaggy ways.

Brad Pitt is officially turning into Johnny Depp: another matinee idol who masks his good looks with unsexy facial hair. Pitt turned up in Tokyo this week for the premiere of "Moneyball" sporting a distressingly shaggy stoner mane and salt-and-pepper goatee.
Is he regrowing his weird beard? Let's hope not.
Pitt and Angelina Jolie left the kids at home to hit the red-carpet premiere as a Hollywood supercouple on Wednesday night: Jolie looked striking in a red dress and matching lipstick, while Pitt regressed back to the grungy, surfer-dude look he sported before doing the U.S. promotional circuit for "Moneyball."
The actor certainly knows how to sell a movie/passion project: he cleaned himself up to remind everyone of his "Thelma & Louise" days and stirred up some good old-fashioned controversy by insulting his long-suffering ex-wife. We kind of miss that Brad Pitt.

Mariah Carey Disses Kim Kardashian?


Showing off her incredible post-baby body, Mariah Carey graces the cover of this week's Us Weekly -- and apparently she read last week's cover story, too!
The slimmed-down singer and mom to twins made a not-so-subtle joke about Kim Kardashian's quickie divorce at a press conference held at the Four Seasons in NYC, where Carey was unveiled as the new ambassador for Jenny (formerly Jenny Craig).


"I'm a real person, I'm not going to put on a fake face for Hollywood," Carey told the crowd as she dished on her marriage to hubby Nick Cannon, with whom she shares six-month-old twins Moroccan and Monroe.


"Sometimes we make each other mad, that's why we aren't divorced after four months," she cracked. The crowd audibly gasped after that remark. The most notorious quickie divorce these days, of course, is 31-year-old Kardashian, who filed Oct. 31 after just 72 days of matrimony with Kris Humphries.
Looking sheepish after her crack, the "Butterfly" singer said, "I'm sorry, I'm just saying."


Looking back on the earlier days of her career she added, "You know, I had a situation in the past where I was controlled, and I was really young, and it affected the way I trusted people. I had no team, besides my dog and my cat. Me and Nick we always joke, I'm an Aries, I need so much attention!"

Victoria's Secret Fashion Show Surprise: Kanye West & Jay-Z Perform

At the Victoria's Secret Fashion show yesterday, the show finally went on for Kanye West.
You may remember, the rapper was set to sing four years ago but backed out due to the sudden death of his mother, Donda West.
And he took a moment to remember her, before launching a surprise...

"In 2007, I was supposed to perform this song...then my mom passed away," Kanye told the crowd. "She was my superhero—now she's my superangel."
Awww. With that, West burst into a rendition of "Stronger," before asking a surprise friend to join him: Jay-Z. The crowd went wild as the rappers performed a duet from their Watch the Throne album.
Later, Maroon 5 crooner Adam Levine had a special moment of his own. While performing "Moves Like Jagger," he escorted supermodel girlfriend Anne Vyalitsyna to the end of the runway, hand in hand.
Miranda Kerr's hubby Orlando Bloom didn't walk the carpet, but she said earlier that he'd be watching her from inside the venue.
Celebs on the carpet were eager to get to their seats and see all the stunners in the flesh up close, but La La Anthony did give us a quick update on her BFF Kim Kardashian.
"She's holding up, thank you," she told us as she rushed into the Lexington Armory.

Feds: Cyber Criminals Hijacked 4 Million Computers



An Eastern European pack of cyber thieves known as the Rove group hijacked at least four million computers in over 100 countries, including at least half a million computers in the U.S., to make off with $14 million in "illegitimate income" before they were caught, federal officials announced today.
The malware allegedly used in the "massive and sophisticated scheme" also managed to infect computers in U.S. government agencies including NASA and targeted the websites for major institutions like iTunes, Netflix and the IRS -- forcing users attempting to get to those sites to different websites entirely, according to a federal indictment unsealed in New York today.
The accused hackers, six Estonian nationals and a Russian national, rerouted the internet traffic illegally on the infected computers for the last four years in order to reap profits from internet advertisement deals, the indictment said. The FBI busted up the alleged international cyber ring after a two-year investigation called Operation Ghost Click.

Dr. Conrad Murray Found Guilty in Death of Michael Jackson (UPDATES)

(Update: In a statement to TMZ, Michael Jackson's parents Joe and Katherine said, "We have been waiting for this moment for a very long time and we couldn't hold back tears of joy in the courtroom.  Even though nothing can bring back our son, justice has finally been served!")
After nearly six weeks of testimony and 10 hours of deliberation, the jury in the involuntary manslaughter trial of Michael Jackson's personal physician Dr. Conrad Murray has reached a verdict: Guilty. With that judgment, the 12 jurors unanimously agreed that Murray was solely responsible for causing Jackson's death by administering a deadly dose of the powerful sedative Propofol to the King of Pop. Jackson, who complained of insomnia in his final months, used the sedative as a sleeping agent, even though Propofol is only meant for surgical operations.
Jackson's parents Joe and Katherine and many of Michael's siblings (but not his three children) were on hand to observe the verdict. "I'm shaking uncontrollably," La Toya Jackson tweeted on her way to the Los Angeles courthouse. "Michael's spirit will be with us in the court room and he will make sure the right verdict is made." When the guilty verdict was read, a brief gasp of approval could be heard in the courtroom, but the court quickly regained order. Outside, hundreds of Jackson fans celebrated the guilty verdict (Watch video of the reaction).
