BEYONCE LOOK OUT BELOW! Crazy Yacht Diving

0817-launch-beyonce-yacht-diving-02
Beyonce isn't even living life on the edge anymore ... she's going right over it!
We got these shots of Bey and Jay Z balling out off the coast of Sardinia on their favorite rented super yacht, the Galactica Star. But instead of sunbathing or sipping bubbly ... Beyonce decided to go all daredevil and dive off the top deck.
Looks to be at least a 30-foot drop, and we think that's Jigga recording video from below. Maybe she was inspired by the Olympics ... or maybe she's making a quick escape.
Bottom line ... #CakesintheOcean

'My family lived in fear of this man for years': The family of an Arab-American man killed by his neighbor speaks

Stanley Vernon Majors.
The family of a Lebanese-American man who was fatally shot by his neighbor last week released a statement revealing the killer's history of harassment, intimidation, and even physical assault against them.
Khalid Jabara of Tulsa was allegedly gunned down by his next-door neighbor, Stanley Vernon Majors, on the steps of Jabara's porch on Friday.
Majors had allegedly stalked members of Jabara's family for years, and once described them to police as "dirty Arab" and "filthy Lebanese." He also hurled Islamophobic epithets at the family, even though the Jabaras are Christian.
"Our brother's death could have been prevented. This man was a known danger," Jabara's sister Victoria wrote in the statement, published on Facebook on Monday.

Amy Tinkler becomes youngest British athlete to win at the Olympics at age 16




Great Britain's 16 year old Amy Tinkler is now Britain's youngest athlete to win a medal at the Olympics in 32 years, after she won Bronze at the women's floor exercise event on Tuesday. It is an astonishing rise for the teenager who just last month sat in a school hall to take her GCSE exams and will collect her results on the day she returns from Brazil.  Holding back tears after her win, she said:

'I can't believe it. I knew I was Team GB's youngest athlete but this is crazy and I'm still in shock at the minute. 'It was a bit nerve-wracking watching the other athletes and knowing you are so close to a medal but I would have been happy with wherever I was place.'  'I went out there and did my best and enjoyed it so whatever the result, I would have been happy. I really am speechless.
'I put no pressure on myself and neither did my coaches. They just told me I had nothing to lose and to go out and enjoy it. I had made the floor final at the Olympics and deserved to be in it so I enjoyed it. 'As soon as I finished my routine, I knew I couldn't do any better. 'It has been an incredible week for British gymnastics. Hopefully there is a lot more to come from me and you will see me back out here in 2020.' 

Ex-NSA insiders: There's 'a lot of panic' over what's been exposed by this massive hack



A group calling itself the "Shadow Brokers" claims that it hacked into the National Security Agency and stole an apparent treasure trove of exploits and hacking tools that it now wants to auction off, which some ex-NSA insiders say is extremely bizarre and very serious.
"It's a big deal," Dave Aitel, an ex-NSA research scientist and CEO of penetration testing firm Immunity Inc., told Business Insider. "We'd be panicking."
Yet he added: "But then it is rather old stuff. So the question is, is it so old that it's essentially irrelevant but looks very relevant? Or is some of this stuff still in use every day? I don't know."
Earlier this week, Shadow Brokers announced that it was selling a number of cyber weapons claiming to be stolen from The Equation Group. That is a hacking unit that was uncovered last year by Kaspersky Labs that many believe are within the NSA. In its data dump of proof, the brokers offered files dating back to 2013 to allegedly exploit FortiGate and Cisco firewalls, among others.

Amber Heard and Johnny Depp settle domestic violence case


According to TMZ, Amber Heard has dismissed her domestic violence restraining order petition against her estranged husband, Johnny Depp, as the case has settled. Read the report below... 
Amber and Johnny filed legal docs Tuesday in which Amber withdrew her request for a restraining order. She had alleged Johnny brutalized her on May 21 but now the case is over. She dismissed the case with prejudice, meaning she can never re-file it.
The divorce case, which was tied to the domestic violence petition, is also resolved. As we reported, our sources say Johnny agreed to pay Amber approximately $7 million to walk away ... that includes attorneys' fees ... at a point, $8 million was on the table, so she ended up with a mil less.

As we reported, Johnny's lawyers, Laura Wasser and Blair Berk, along with Amber's lawyers, Pierce O'Donnell and Samantha Spector, crafted a settlement after Amber was grilled Saturday during a deposition.

There is a leopard lurking in this photo but you've got to look REALLY close to find him



Hidden leopard
There's a leopard here, honest - just look a bit harder and you'll see it
With their recognisable spots and sizeable stature, leopards shouldn't be that hard to spot.
And yet this photograph is stumping everyone as they simply cannot spot the big cat.
Thanks to nature, the iconic spots on the creatures are intended to help them blend in, hence how impossible this particular puss is to make out in the brush.
The predator is perfectly camouflaged as it has a lie down on the rocks in Rajasthan, India.
Sudhir Shivaram spotted the cunning animal when he was exploring in the small town of Bera - and has enjoyed teasing pals who don't even believe there's a leopard in the pic.

'It was a massacre!' Michael Johnson hails South African sprinter Wayde van Niekerk after he smashes his 19-year 400m world record...thanks to his coach, a great grandma, 74

 Nurturing: Known affectionately as ‘Tannie Ans’ to her athletes – Tannie meaning Auntie in her first language Afrikaans – has given van Niekerk ‘a positive environment to train in.’

And four time Olympic gold medallist Johnson, watching from the BBC commentary box, was one of the first to congratulate him - saying: 'Oh my God! From lane eight, a world record. 
'He took it out so quick. I have never seen anything from 200m to 400m like that.
'He may well have run faster in the second 200m, than in the first. 
'Well done to this youngster. A world record. That was a massacre from Wayde van Niekerk. He just put those guys away.
'Van Niekerk is so young, what else can he do? Can he go under 43 seconds? It is something I thought I could do, but never did. Usain Bolt will be retiring soon, this could be the next star of the sport.

Secret Ledger in Ukraine Lists Cash for Donald Trump’s Campaign Chief

On a leafy side street off Independence Square in Kiev is an office used for years by Donald J. Trump’s campaign chairman, Paul Manafort, when he consulted for Ukraine’s ruling political party. His furniture and personal items were still there as recently as May.
And Mr. Manafort’s presence remains elsewhere here in the capital, where government investigators examining secret records have found his name, as well as companies he sought business with, as they try to untangle a corrupt network they say was used to loot Ukrainian assets and influence elections during the administration of Mr. Manafort’s main client, former PresidentViktor F. Yanukovych.
Handwritten ledgers show $12.7 million in undisclosed cash payments designated for Mr. Manafort from Mr. Yanukovych’s pro-Russian political party from 2007 to 2012, according to Ukraine’s newly formed National Anti-Corruption Bureau. Investigators assert that the disbursements were part of an illegal off-the-books system whose recipients also included election officials.

The simplest way to get — and stay — happy, according to psychologists




When was the last time you felt truly happy? The kind of happy where you feel as if you just won an Olympic gold?
It's an amazing, but often fleeting, feeling. And many of us don't get enough of it.
What's more, there's a common belief that if we seek out things like a better career, more money, and meaningful companionship, we'll be happier as a result.
But that may be a harmful misconception, as science journalist Wendy Zukerman explains on an episode of the podcast series "Science VS."
To measure the level of happiness in people around the world, scientists use large surveys like the Mappiness app and the World Happiness Report where thousands of volunteers answer questions about how satisfied they are with their quality of life, overall well-being, and happiness.
