A Live Cam Is Now Documenting A 4-Week-Old Orphaned Bear Cub
This cute little guy has basically been through hell, though.
But the story behind Mike the cub is a heartbreaker. In January, his mother was shot dead in self defense by a deer hunter who stumbled upon her underground den in Allamuchy State Park, which was covered with logs and branches, according to Woodlands Wildlife Refuge. Two other siblings were crushed.
Just one week old, Mike and his brother, Ike, survived and were brought to the rehab center, where staff members bottle-fed the pair and created incubators for them to keep warm and sleep in.
Both weighed just 1 pound each when they were brought in.
Warning: Cute bear cub sleeping sounds.

After All That Backlash, "Fresh Off The Boat" Debuted To A Lot Of Love On Twitter
Despite months of controversy surrounding the new ABC comedy about a Taiwanese-American family, those tweeting their thoughts during the premiere seemed to find it both funny and relatable.
The new '90s-set comedy Fresh Off the Boat — about a Taiwanese couple and their three American-born sons who pick up and move from Washington, D.C., to Orlando, Florida — premiered on ABC on Wednesday night.
The show, loosely based on chef and food personality Eddie Huang's life and memoir of the same name, centers on the eldest Huang, Eddie (Hudson Yang), as he and his family struggle to assimilate.

In the nearly nine months since ABC announced it had picked up the series, criticism has been hurled at both Huang and the series.
Early on, Huang defended the show's title, stating he hoped to reclaim the historically offensive slang term. And just last week, the controversy surrounding the show continued when ABC tweeted — and quickly deleted — an offensive promotional image for the show (captioned "The world is full of different hats") that Huang and many followers quickly denounced.

The Best Thing About Snapchat Has Always Been The Dumbest
Maybe simply putting text over images was all that anyone ever wanted?
tastefullyoffensive.tumblr.com
Last week, Snapchat launched Discover, a new feature that shows clips of content from a variety of media partners including Vice, Comedy Central, and CNN, and will also broadcast advertising. It's a big move in a new direction for Snapchat that moves it beyond its roots as a photo messaging app.
And yet on the day the splashy new feature launched, teens were freaking out about the fact that the new update had removed a tiny original feature: displaying your "best friend" in your profile. To teens, this weird vestigial feature that I labeled back in 2012 as "the feature that will ruin your life" was a key piece of how they used the app. It was woven into their social fabric. Teens complained so forcefully that Snapchat CEO Evan Spiegel tweeted that they would bring the "top friends" feature back. In its excitement to debut a new product with strategic business partnerships, they accidentally overlooked a small core feature that made the app so popular among core users.
Now, as any mouth-breather with half a brain knows, Snapchat's most distinctive feature is its ephemerality: post anything and, after the set amount of time, it disappears like forgotten youth.
But ephemerality gets too much credit for Snapchat's appeal. There's something else, here. Snapchat's unacknowledged secret weapon is devilishly simple and has been right in front of your eyes the whole time. Ready? Snapchat's best feature is the simple ability to easily put text over your photo.
This may sound dumb or obvious, but bear with me, here.
No other major photo app or social network with a photo function has this simple feature. And while plenty of niche photo editing apps/pieces of software offer text over image, they're hardly popular.
Even on desktop computers, quick and dirty image captioning has never been totally simple. The popularity of tools like the human-toxic-waste-superfund-site MemeGenerator is entirely due to the fact that placing the classic meme Impact font text with a 2-point strike outline on top of a picture is actually really hard if you don't have or know Photoshop well. (If you think Photoshop is "easy" please do not argue with me on this because you are an outlier. Also I have a question about airbrushing out my crow's feet on my Facebook profile photo, please DM me.)
And, as it turns out, it's the perfect feature for the mobile devices that have effectively replaced personal cameras.
Pairing a caption with an image changes the meaning and dynamic of the communication; that's part of why Snapchat communication is different from more traditional modes of online correspondence. When you send a friend a photo through SMS with a caption, the words appear on a separate line. A Snapchat, on the other hand feels custom tailored to the individual(s) you're sending it to in that exact moment. There's something less immediate and poetic about the description not being part of a glorious LOL palimpsest. Bespoke LOLs.
Most importantly, jokes work differently when you can put a caption ONTO a photo.
The best evidence of how game-changing text-over-photo is to Snapchat is the proliferation of Snapchat screenshots on Instagram, Twitter, and Tumblr. The app isn't just being used as a communication tool within the app itself, it's a way of generating specific images (photos with text) that can spread around on other platforms.
Savvy users are treating it as a photo editing tool to mark up their own content. Wanna make a joke about grapes? Use Snapchat, then post it on Tumblr, like this jabroni did.

Silk Road Founder Convicted Of Facilitating Internet's Largest Black Market
Ross William Ulbricht, 30, founded Silk Road, which became the internet’s largest black market. Authorities estimated $1.2 billion in sales were made on the site before it was shut down.
The homepage to Silk Road 2.0, an alleged underground online drug market, is seen in a screenshot after it was closed by U.S. authorities.
Staff / Reuters
Ross William Ulbricht, 30, was arrested in October 2013, the site was shut down, and millions of dollars in Bitcoins were seized.
On Wednesday, Ulbricht was convicted of all seven charges against him, Bloomberg reported. He faces life in prison but has yet to be sentenced.
CNBC reported that jurors deliberated for several hours before rendering a verdict.
Before Ulbricht's arrest, law enforcement agents made more than 100 undercover purchases, starting in 2011. Ulbricht was also found guilty of attempting to arrange a killing through the website.
Prosecutors described Ulbricht as a drug kingpin, facilitating the sale of millions of dollars of drugs. His defense argued that the website was an economic experiment, and Ulbricht was fooled into taking the fall for others' crimes.
In this courtroom drawing, defendant Ross William Ulbricht listens to proceedings from the defense table during opening arguments in his criminal trial in New York, Tuesday, Jan. 13, 2015.
