Snapping your squad all at once is super easy. Instead of manually sending the same snaps to multiple people, Snapchat allows you to create groups. Each group can accommodate up to 16 users.
Get ready for a show. NASA’s launching a rocket Monday night that will leave a trail of colorful, fake clouds looming over the East Coast.
The clouds, which will possibly take over skies from New York to California, will also be visible from a live broadcast from NASA starting at 8:30 p.m. Eastern.
Skies will be painted glowing blue-green and red colors by a sounding rocket, which will release 10 soda can-sized canisters into the air to form the clouds. The rocket will launch from the Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia sometime between 9:04 and 9:19 p.m. Eastern, if all goes as planned, and the flight will last just eight minutes.

In 2010 we had “icing.” Then came “planking.” Then, of course, the infamous ice bucket challenge. If Snapchat and Instagram are any indication, this summer’s hottest viral prank could be the “lava challenge.”
It’s a simple game. A friend shouts “the floor is lava!” and you have exactly 5 seconds to get to higher ground. This could mean climbing a store shelf, hopping on a fire hydrant or jumping on the counter of a fast-food restaurant.
The game itself has been around on schoolyards for years — you probably remember it from your childhood — but a pair of friends named Kevin Freshwater and Jahannah James helped it reach viral new heights.
CNN has not renewed show host Reza Aslan’s program a week after the host was forced to apologize for calling President Donald Trump “a piece of shit” for Trump’s response to a suicide bombing at a concert in Manchester.
“CNN has decided to not move forward with production on the acquired series Believer With Reza Aslan (season two),” a CNN spokesperson said in a statement. “We wish Reza and his production team all the best.”
The news comes a week after Aslan had to apologize for calling Trump a “piece of shit” in a tweet. The tweet, which has since been deleted, read:
“This piece of shit is a not just an embarrassment to America and a stain on the presidency. He’s an embarrassment to humankind.”
After asking guys to consider ditching the macho shtick in 2016, Axe body spray, the number-one men’s fragrance brand in the world, is back at it again, this time addressing the never-not-topical conversation of fragile masculinity.
Beginning with the statistic that 72% of guys have been told how a “real man” should behave, the new campaign — titled “Is it ok for guys…” — deals with a number of questions asked by many men, but openly discussed by few.
“Is it ok to not like sports?” “Is it ok to experiment with other guys?” “Is it ok for guys to wear pink?” “Is it ok to be depressed?” These are just some of the questions being asked as part of the brand’s “Find Your Magic” initiative.
According to a paper from the National Bureau of Economic Research, fewer women are relying on stable, high-earning male partners to have children.
Researchers from the University of Maryland discovered this trend when they examined the fracking boom, a “positive economic shock” which they said caused wage spikes for non-college educated men. In the past, these kinds of income increases have been associated with accompanying spikes in heterosexual marriage rates, as with the coal booms of the 1970s and ’80s.
Saturday’s annual Earth Day celebration comes at a pivotal moment for a number of global environmental issues.
This year marks the 47th annual Earth Day event, which began on April 22, 1970. According to the campaign’s estimate, more than 1 billion people participate in Earth Day festivities every year, making it the largest civic observance in the world.
Environment and pollution-related issues continue to make headlines in the weeks leading up to Earth Day, with major environmental crises across the planet.
The Guardian on Monday published its report on a new climate change study stating that unless global fossil fuel output is substantially curbed soon, by the mid 21st century human beings will have achieved a climate change rate not seen for the last 50 million years, back when the Ice Age came to an end.
The effects of this unprecedented rise in temperature continue to be felt around the globe, including the coastal U.S. In South Florida communities like Broward County, ocean water routinely flows up drainage pipes and into the streets during seasonal high tides, theSun Sentinel reported.

“I’d rather be smoking weed whenever we breathe.” When Rihanna sang those words on “James Joint,” the second track on her Anti album, it felt like a slight sea change in pop history.
Marijuana smoke has likely long swirled through the recording studios of major label artists, but rarely has it been so specifically name dropped and praised on record by an pop icon of this caliber. It came at a crucial time, no less, when 2016 was just starting to gear up for recreational or medical marijuana legalization votes in nine states, eight of which eventually passed.
When all is said and done, Rihanna may go down as one of the most important stoners in modern music, joining a long lineage of cannabis-loving musicians who found have inspiration in the herb — from Bob Marley and Willie Nelson, back to Billie Holiday and Louis Armstrong — and have returned the favor with advocacy.
Had marijuana never gained the cultural fascination it did in America, music history would likely be unrecognizable. The subtle but profound psychoactive effects of the herb have shaped genres and altered the lyrical content and artistic identities of the musicians that used it. What follows are portraits of a few of those key weed smokers in music history that have championed the plant’s therapeutic properties and thereby changed the way Americans view it forever.

That much was evident when the Twitter account African Beauties, which aims to show the beauty of African people, tweeted some of Mbah’s own pictures from her Instagram account, showing her lounging on a beach and generally looking super cute.
