Online information wasn’t easy to get, of course. Even if you could hook up to the Internet, disorganized posts made it tough to find the right sources. That’s where two University of Maryland professors come in. They’re proposing a system that would combine the best aspects of MySpace, Craigslist and the U.S. Amber Alert. Named after the U.S. emergency phone number, their 911.gov network would take pressure off busy emergency dispatchers and make crucial information available to anyone with a mobile device....

Noah and Traves, former members of The Lunch Club podcast, recently stunned the world after alleging that the Minecraft star groomed underage fans on Keemstar’s latest Drama Alert episode. With the internet still reeling from these claims, a woman has now come forward with several incriminating screenshots where she accuses CallMeCarson, 21, of grooming her while she was still 17, and in high school: In a detailed Twitter thread, a user by the name of Sam revealed shockingly inappropriate messages allegedly sent to her by CallMeCarson....

The curiosity is over now, though, as it’s pretty clear why Johnson retired. In an interview with ESPN, the receiver known as Megatron described the nasty injury he’s dealing with on his right ring finger. MORE: Megatron’s best moments “Look, man. I got stuff that’s going to hurt for the rest of my life. I got a finger that’s literally bone-on-bone,” he said. “This bad boy, it gets smaller. The more and more I do, it grinds bone-on-bone....

For all the latest fantasy updates, follow us on Twitter @SN_Fantasy. Why is Calvin Ridley out for Week 5? We’re not sure why Ridley isn’t going to make the trip to London, as the only cause given is a “personal matter.” We won’t speculate on that and we wish him well, but as fantasy owners, it’s time to look at some replacement options in his absence. WEEK 5 PPR RANKINGS: Quarterback | Running back | Wide receiver | Tight end | D/ST | Kicker...

Newton wasn’t throwing when the Panthers opened OTAs this week, but he did participate in drills and was active with the team. Coach Ron Rivera isn’t concerned, though, as he explained there still isn’t a timetable for when Newton will be able to throw. “There really is no plan in terms of when to expect something to happen. What they’re doing is taking it day by day, week by week and evaluating,” Rivera told reporters Wednesday....

Newton threw only two passes in his one series of work against the Jaguars, a run-heavy possession that ended in a touchdown. His 9-yard scoring strike to wide receiver Kelvin Benjamin was the biggest highlight, but it wasn’t his most important moment in his first game action after his right shoulder surgery.

Flames in Colorado ignited on August 13 in the Arapaho and Roosevelt National Forests near Cameron Pass. Firefighters worked against dry and hot conditions, and the fire has burned through nearly 60,000 acres, nearly doubling in size over the weekend. As of Monday, mandatory evacuation orders were in place for the intersection of Highway 14 and County Road 103 north to Four Corners, south of County Road 86 from County Road 103 east to County Road 73C and south to Highway 14....

Set to release on December 14, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2’s first Raid, titled “Atomgrad,” sees up to three players infiltrate an underwater facility. According to a Call of Duty blog post, these Raids will see players completing puzzles, sneaking around in stealth and engaging enemies in intense firefights. While players expected Raids to be another fun addition to the core Modern Warfare 2 experience, many weren’t expecting them to be a continuation of the game’s story, which they seem to be since players assume the roles of Captain Price, Gaz, and Farah....

It’s also silly to draw a line defining how economical a product is within a specific tech category—especially as we’ve seen the past few years with laptops, truly wireless stereo earbuds and other gadgets—because the common tendency is for their median price to decrease over time, sometimes even as their capabilities increase. And lastly, a particular device’s relative affordability is partly based on the particular purveyor. For instance, Campfire Audio—based in Portland, Oregon, and well-respected by audiophile communities around the world—sells most of its IEMs (in-ear monitors, a fancy term for earphones) in the $900 to $1,500 range....

In the ongoing ICC Champions Trophy, the Kangaroos are in the midst of a crisis. They have their backs against the wall after their skipper Michael Clarke suffered a back injury and is unsure of making a comeback in this prestigious tournament. Moreover, the pressure is on the Aussies to replicate their feat for the third consecutive time and make it a hat-trick of Champions Trophies after having won it in 2006 and 2009....

Ban’s efforts have already paid small dividends. Before his departure from New York on Tuesday, the U.N. announced that Burma had agreed to allow 10 World Food Program helicopters to ferry aid from the former capital Rangoon to hard-hit towns on the Irrawaddy delta. And on Monday, the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) won Burma’s approval to create a “coordinating mechanism” for international relief. “We have to view this as a positive,” said a senior U....

Technically, you have amenorrhea if you’ve missed three periods or more in a row (and you’re not pregnant or in menopause, of course). Medical studies have shown that women with celiac disease are much more prone to this problem than women without the condition. How Often Do Celiac Women Skip Periods? Women who have celiac disease tend to skip periods quite frequently. In one large study, nearly 20% of celiac women reported having amenorrhea (skipping three periods or more in a row) at some point, compared to only 2....

Newsweek asked canine experts what fruits can dogs eat - from bananas, blueberries, watermelon and more - as well as those that should be avoided. Can Dogs Eat Fruit? Speaking to Newsweek, Dr. Jerry Klein, the chief veterinary officer at the American Kennel Club (AKC), explained typical symptoms that occur when a dog consumes fruits that pose a risk to their health include vomiting and diarrhea. “In worse cases, such as cyanide poisoning, this could include difficulty breathing, dilated pupils, red gums or even kidney failure,” Klein said....

However, depending on how it’s prepared as well as which type of fish or seafood it is, both foods can be toxic—or in some rare cases, deadly—for your pooch. Speaking to Newsweek, veterinarian Tina Wismer, the senior director of toxicology at the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center, said: “Fish and seafood can both be part of a balanced diet. “While poisoning [in fish and seafood] is uncommon, there can be issues with bones or shells causing irritation or potentially obstructions,” Wismer said....

James didn’t play basketball in college, and his professional stature prohibits him from ever playing collegiately. However, he could still play sports in college. The NBA megastar tweeted Saturday that he might be interested in playing collegiate sports, and wondered if he was eligible. Though he didn’t ask what sport he might play, his tweet came during a fun day of college football. Here’s what James wrote. “Do I have college eligibility if I went to play another sport besides basketball?...

Pediatric Dental Coverage: A Unique Essential Health Benefit Under the Affordable Care Act, there are ten essential health benefits that all individual and small group health plans (with effective dates of January 2014 or later) are required to cover. Although the specifics of the coverage differ from one state to another, the basic coverage categories all have to be included. But one of the essential health benefits—pediatric dental—is treated differently....

The lifecycle of a Call of Duty game lasts until the next entry releases, and that means a game usually lasts about a year before being left to gather dust. However, these games do not deserve that fate. One of the best ways to let them shine would be to adopt the model established by Halo: The Master Chief Collection, which breathed new life into the entire franchise, and served as a love letter to what came before....

While many Call of Duty players support the Call of Duty Endowment, fans only wish the rewards were better. Generally, players are more than happy to donate to the charity’s cause but the packs always seem to have a strange assortment of options. Call of Duty, many players wish that the items were more useful than what is traditionally provided to fans.
