Welcome to The Now

Chivers are also gamers . There was a time when we used animals for warfare . You'd be better off asking a doctor than believing in these myths . Day of Nude on Facebook . Why you need a hobby .

The Senate works on immigration. Allison Brie proves her talent . The Cavaliers steal acquire the #1 pick ; the Wizards get #3. Weiner wants to be mayor .

( pic via ) The Rescuers was probably the nicest, least-disturbing "Disney Prom Pic" from that list.  Being born in space , huh? Can you do the 7-minute workout ? Monique has lost weight (give a woman -regardless of her initial size- enough time around Hollywood and they all will eventually go down in pounds).  Yeah; but it doesn't mean that these are the five types of women guys should go for.

The Miami Heat smash the weakened Chicago Bulls. R.I.P., Dr. Joyce Brothers . Shorter Obama : Benghazi isn't an issue, but what the IRS did is. Severe peanut allergy forces student to leave college .

More here , including a dance pose that proves that, yes, she has had sex.

...of course, he'd have to give up being a superhero.

You won't believe what they found in Chile. Get the scoop on life behind the camera on the morning TV shows. Take it easy with these snacks ...and try eating these foods more. While we're at it, here's what not to wear at the gym . Guys: be able to do at least 4 out of these 10 things .  The gap in "The Great Gatsby."

      Every ten-to-twenty years, someone (presumably older than 30) writes how the generation just entering their twenties are either promising-yet-terrifying or terrifying-yet-promising. Jezebel has a little more on this , but the way I see it there will always be some group complaining that the generation before screwed everything up and the generation coming up doesn't realize how good they have it.

Whenever there are relatively normal-looking people advocating more radical GOP candidates/policies, odds are they are really part of the GOP themselves and are not "independent."

I say that not just because of the Pentagon survey , but because of the sex-prevention-official-turned-groper story .

More on the California limo fire . The Brooklyn Nets fire their coach (but people won't care because Jay-Z is no longer with the team). Only 20 more years until we start declaring wars on other worlds. Interesting story on domestic terrorists . Of course, a professor from Maryland predicted much of this before Timothy McVeigh became a household name.

I really don't think anyone knows what size terms to use anymore. Speaking of using the wrong terms .. Ray J really didn't know what he started . Cracked.com is really good at taking heroes -both movie and comic - and completely crushing our impressions of them. They're intense and usually good, but they're not really movies most people watch more than once . TV and movies have fooled us into thinking what drowning looks like. I'm shocked that (a) revenge porn is a thing, and that (b) there actually has to be a campaign to stop it .  About dating " bad boys ..."

And by "crazy" I mean describing the Civil War as if the big, bad mean North invaded the South to take away all the happy slaves.

Phil Jackson is hired by the Detroit Pistons t help find a coach , much like Dick Cheney was hired to help George W. bush find a vice presidential candidate I'm sure. On the other hand, if it doesn't work out, Jackson can deflect the blame and just say Detroit didn't listen to him. The 49ers rookie QB has impressed some... but he may need a watch, a phone and an agent .

Here's a hint: they could just as well appear in an X-Men movie, but for some reason they've always been more popular as Avengers in the comics .

Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon have been married for five years now . What I think is so cool is that while they met in 2005, they didn't start dating until 2008. It's reassuring to see that there are people who don't just rush/jump into things and let relationships develop naturally. Also, Cannon embraces Carey's craziness just enough to keep her from going completely overboard; remember, this is a woman who dressed and acted like she was 23 for about 15 years straight. OKC cheerleader Kelsey Williams probably doesn't care, but the critic/news blogger who called her fat has been fired . Honestly, I think the only occupation where looks should be #1 is modeling. Sure, people want attractive entertainers, whether they be cheerleaders, actors/actresses, or dancers. But the fact is all of those jobs require a skill-set that is mutually exclusive to looks.
