Being homeless is never easy, especially when you have kids that depends on you. They have to deal with all the struggles that they might face in their journey.

A woman named Angel, who's an employee of the Modell's sporting goods, happens to be a homeless. She's living in a shelter with her 3 kids and they're having a tough life.

Now, the CEO of Modell's Sporting Goods Mitchelle Modell agreed to be a part of the reality show 'Undercover Boss' that shows the true attitude of their workers towards other people.

He wore a disguise as a new hire employee and spent a week working with Angel who train her. After a week, he knew that Angel was a good person and that she deserves a wonderful surprise for her kindness.

As a reward for working so hard, she was promoted as the Assistant Manager.

Angel couldn't believe with what's happening to her life. She didn't just saved her life, but also the lives of her children!

Why This May Be the Warmest Christmas of Your Lifetime

Temperatures Near 60 Degrees In December In New York City
Earlier this year, Senator Jim Inhofe irrefutably proved that global warming does not exist when he threw a snowball onto the Senate floor ... or so we thought. This year, everyone in the central and eastern U.S. is unwrapping a nasty Christmas surprise: the realization that weather patterns are considerably more complex than what you see when you step out your front door. New York City has seen high temperatures in the upper 50s this week, and the mercury is expected to continue climbing, peaking in the low 70s on Christmas Eve. That puts the city on track to shatter the record Christmas Eve high of 63 degrees, set in 1996. It's the same story in many cities across the Plains and East Coast, where temperatures are expected to be about 10 to 30 degrees above average through the weekend, and into next week in some areas.

Though you've probably enjoyed not seeing your breath while holiday shopping and finally identifying with the first few lines of "White Christmas," there's still something unsettling about seeing flowers in bloom next to nativity displays and sipping a warm peppermint mocha while wearing a short-sleeved shirt. But rest assured: The unseasonably warm weather isn't a sign that the end is near ... or at least not a huge one.

Just how warm will it be?
According to the Weather Channel, more than 90 of the 236 possible weather-observing sites in the continental U.S. will be at least within 3 degrees of a record high on Christmas Eve. That includes 25 states from Maine to Florida, and as far west as Michigan. Burlington, Vermont, may break a record high of 51 degrees set in 1957, and Raleigh, North Carolina, may break its record of 75 degrees from 1931.

Why is this happening?
We're in a warm-weather pattern meteorologists are jokingly calling a "blowtorch" because weather maps showing temperatures compared to normal look like a big red scorch mark surrounded by orange and yellow rings (and every weather event needs a cute nickname these days). As the Weather Channel explains, what's actually happening is that the current weather pattern is holding warm air from the Pacific and tropics over the U.S.:

A southward dip in the jet stream accompanied the brief cooldown that moved through the East this weekend. Now, early this week, the jet stream will quickly build back north across the eastern half of the nation and allow the widespread mild air to return. This lifting of the jet stream back to the north will be in response to a southward dip in the jet stream sweeping into the West.

Meanwhile, the clockwise flow around high pressure in the western Atlantic will allow southerly surface winds to dominate the East this week, pumping warm air from the tropics northward. Southerly winds ahead of a couple of low-pressure systems moving across the country this week will also help pump in the mild, moist air from the south.

There are several weather phenomena at work, and to understand what's going on you need to get reacquainted with the "polar vortex," that thing that caused our last two rough winters. The polar vortex is a ring of low pressure and cold air that circles the North and South Poles. Per the National Weather Service:

It ALWAYS exists near the poles, but weakens in summer and strengthens in winter. The term "vortex" refers to the counter-clockwise flow of air that helps keep the colder air near the Poles. Many times during winter in the northern hemisphere, the polar vortex will expand, sending cold air southward with the jet stream. This occurs fairly regularly during wintertime and is often associated with large outbreaks of Arctic air in the United States.

While the media has just caught on to the term, it's a normal weather feature that also causes cold surges in parts of Asia and Europe. As Mike Halpert, deputy director of the Climate Prediction Center at the National Weather Service, told reporters earlier this month, the current weather is "really associated with the strengthened polar vortex." "Arctic oscillation," or pressure changes at the North Pole, affect how far south those cold winds can travel. Last winter, high pressure pushed the winds away, causing our frigid winter. This year the pressure is low, so the cold winds are circling tight around the Arctic, leading to unseasonably warm weather.

U.S. temperatures are also out of whack because we're experiencing the strongest El Niño in 18 years. The somewhat mysterious warming of waters in the eastern Pacific occurs every two to seven years, and generates warm winds out of the southwest that make winter milder in parts of the U.S.

Does the warm weather have something to do with climate change?
Just as Senator Inhofe's snowball did not actually disprove that humans are altering the Earth's climate, wearing shorts on Christmas Day in New York doesn't necessarily mean that we're hurtling toward our doom. Experts generally agree that the strong El Niño and the polar vortex are the main causes for our mild winter. That led several outlets to declare that there's no connection to global warming, so we shouldn't be stressed about our parka-free December.

The National Weather Service's Mike Halpert told NPR that if climate change is involved "it's probably fairly insignificant at this point." He continued:

If it were to play a role, it would be more likely if, somehow, climate change is impacting either the Arctic oscillation or El Nino, and we're not really aware that it is at this point. If you think about, maybe – the high temperature over the weekend was 70, so maybe without climate change, it would've been 69. I think it's a fairly insignificant role, if any role at all.

On the other hand, 2015 is set to be the hottest year since records began in 1880, and the United Nations' Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change said the current temperatures have not been seen for at least 1,400 years. "This will be the warmest year, of the warmest decade, of the warmest multi-decade-long period in at least the past millennium," Penn State University meteorologist Michael Mann told USA Today.

Some recent studies suggest that manmade climate change is increasing the strength and frequency of El Niño, but that link has not been established. Nevertheless, some believe the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere may be contributing to the milder weather. "In a nutshell, this month’s eastern warmth strikes me as the kind of dramatic event that one might expect in a strong El Niño, with record-warm temperatures at least a small bit higher as a result of the overall warming of our climate," Bob Henson, a meteorologist with Weather Underground, told Bloomberg. He said that if all the factors that contributed to December's unusually warm weather were sorted out, we'd likely find that the odds of an extremely warm month have increased. "So to that extent, you could say that this month is partially a result of climate change," he added. "But there’s no good way to estimate quantitatively how much a role the human factor played until you do the attribution study."

How is the warm holiday season affecting the U.S.?
Even if you don't believe our extreme weather is another sign that we're destroying the planet, there are some reasons to be concerned about the toasty weather. Higher temperatures are hurting ski resorts in the northeast (but helping golf courses), and Planalytics, a firm that helps retailers plan for weather changes, estimates that the weather cost stores $185 million in lost sales last month. Nationally, boot sales are down 3 percent, and sales of hats, gloves, and scarves are down 2 percent.

While holiday travelers won't have to contend with snow and ice, getting to your destination still won't be a breeze. Accuweather's Alex Sosnowski says there should be plenty of weather-related delays thanks to rain, fog, and thunderstorms in the eastern half of the country, which may become severe in parts of the South to the Ohio River Valley in the coming days.

Overall, though, those in the eastern half of the United States should probably remember that plenty of people around the world have figured out how to muster some holiday cheer with absolutely no hope of seeing snow on Christmas. In Australia, Christmastime means barbecuing and heading to the beach. Celebrations in Caribbean nations often involve fireworks and street parades. And in Hawaii, where the Obamas spend Christmas every year, Santa comes to town in a canoe, wearing shorts and a lei around his neck:


So yes, it's weird that it'll be too hot to don an ugly Christmas sweater in New York this year, but don't expect your friends and relatives from warmer climates to be impressed.

Scientists Say That Women With Bigger Butts Give Birth To Smarter Kids

A study from the University of Oxford connects the big booty to healthy children.
According to a 2010 study from the University of Oxford, big butts result in healthy children because of the high amount of Omega 3 fatty acids (the good fatty acids) stored. These are the same fatty acids that are responsible for the normal development of the baby's brain.

But according to the Chicago Tribune, scientists have proved this a long time ago, in 2007 to be precise. They noted that women with fat-bottoms are smarter than women with flat-bottoms. Again, the reason is because of the heightened storage of Omega 3 fatty acids, which improves the functionality/development of their brain.

Evidence shows that the fat content in a mother's breast milk comes from her lower half of the body, which includes her thighs, buttocks, etc. This means that the high amount of Omega 3's becomes a part of the baby's balanced breakfast.

The high amount of Omega 3 storage could be the reason why fat-bottomed women seem attractive to men, because it becomes an evolutionary way of ensuring successful children. In the words of a common man; the reason why J. Lo seems so hot to men, is because men have a biological imperative to produce intelligent offspring.

William Lassek from the University of Pittsburgh, is the person who hypothesized this. He even went ahead and published a book titled "Why Women Need Fat."

But, having fat-bottoms is not the only way to having intelligent children. There are other factors that play a role in it, such as the overall fitness of your body, and the diet.

To conclude, stay active, stay healthy, and carry good fat below the waist, and of course, having healthy genetics doesn't hurt either.

The next study for William Lassek will undoubtedly be the biological imperative associated with an eye for blondes. But that's something we'll save for later.

Happy new year bro....keep the good job.

Thanks so much in anticipation

All Nigerians, ASUU, Govt. and all others should focus on others areas to help improve education quality. All lecturers who extort students should be jailed for life as this develop " the culture of bribery and corruption" is developed in the university. Admission offenders who give chance for the promotion of mediocrity and those who molest our girl child should also be jailed. Task force headed by RIBADU to probe corruption in the universities......it is one thing to disburse trillions and another to use it for the intended purpose!!!

Government should take a closer look at ASUU as funding is not problem in the sector........you have to think of what impact sorting, admission frauds, molestation of female students by lecturers have on education.

David Beckham's eldest son Brooklyn has had a successful trial with Chelsea and will join the club's academy.

The 13-year-old took part in a session at the club's Cobham training facility, with a picture of his father David posing with another academy player later posted on Twitter.

Beckham senior is yet to confirm where his future lies after a five-year spell at LA Galaxy concluded at the end of the MLS season.

A host of clubs have been linked with moves to sign him but the 37-year-old, who won 115 caps for England, is taking time to consider his options.

Really some dough to pay for peeping......

Apple awarded $1 billion in patent case vs. Samsung
By NBCNews.com and wire services
(Updated 7:38 p.m. Eastern) A federal jury Friday awarded slightly more than $1 billion to Apple in its patent suit against rival Samsung.
The jury said that Samsung had infringed on some of Apple patents.  The panel reached a verdict remarkably fast, faced with sorting through three weeks of testimony and confronted with a complicated jury ballot.
Apple and Samsung together account for 54 percent of the global smartphone market and 90 percent of the profits.

Apple claims Samsung stole key features of its iPhone and iPad -- including the familiar look, with glass screen and rounded corners, and performance features, such as the rubber-band bounce effect at the end of a scroll list and the ability to zoom out by pinching on the screen.
A federal judge has already granted Apple's request to ban U.S. sales of Samsung's Galaxy ten-point-one tablet, claiming it's too much like the iPad. Apple is also demanding that Samsung pay $2.5 billion dollars for violating its patents.
Judge Lucy Koh gave the jury 100 pages of instructions on Tuesday. The jury worksheet included 20 pages of questions to be answered. They were provided dozens of mobile phones to examine, as well.
In another case on the other side of the world, a panel of judges in Seoul, South Korea, ruled both companies had infringed on each other.
The ruling said the company didn't copy the look and feel of the iPhone, and that Apple infringed on Samsung's wireless technology. But the panel also said Samsung violated Apple technology behind the bounce-back feature when scrolling on touch screens. It ordered both sides to pay limited damages.
The ruling ordered Apple to remove older iPhone and iPad models from store shelves in South Korea.
Below, CNBC's Jon Fortt reports from outside the courtroom following the jury's verdict. He discusses a likely Samsung appeal and notes "This is now full-on war."

Bro....take a bow ..... Agreement is agreement

OVER fifty passengers  aboard a plane from Lagos to Benin City  escaped death, Saturday, when the aircraft  failed to land after hovering in the Benin airspace for about 15 minutes.

The incident  caused panic in Benin-City as people immediately evacuated their homes, fearing that the plane  might crash-land.

The flight flew back to Lagos after it failed to land at the airport. One of the passengers on board, who craved anonymity, disclosed that some “passengers fainted due to fear.”

The passenger continued: “We thought it was going to be another crash. We were hovering round the Benin airspace but we could not land. Of course people were shouting the name of Jesus until we were taken back to Lagos”.

A source at the Benin airport said  the pilot may have failed to get landing clearance from the control tower. The Benin Airport Manager, Mr Segun Ayodele, he said he was unaware of the incident when contacted last night.

John Terry charged

The FA has today charged John Terry.


After seeking advice from an external Independent QC, and having considered the evidence and Magistrates' Court decision in the John Terry case, The FA has today charged the Chelsea player following an alleged incident that occurred during the Queens Park Rangers versus Chelsea fixture at Loftus Road on 23 October 2011.

It is alleged that Terry used abusive and/or insulting words and/or behaviour towards Queens Park Rangers’ Anton Ferdinand, contrary to FA rules.

It is further alleged that this included a reference to the ethnic origin and/or colour and/or race of Anton Ferdinand.

This charge is the result of The FA’s long-standing enquiries into this matter, which were placed on hold pending the outcome of the criminal trial, and relates to rules governing football only.

During this period John Terry remains available to play for England.

Terry has until 3 August 2012 to respond.

The FA will make no further comment during this time.
