With the storm feeding on an atmospheric river of moisture stretching far out into the Pacific, precautionary evacuations of homes in some neighborhoods were requested due to the potential for mudslides and debris flows.

Brewery gives employees 'puppy parental leave' and everyone else major job envyHow does spending an entire week playing with a puppy and getting paid for it sound to you? Too good to be true? We're here to inform you that there is a company which allows their employees to do that. Yes, that exists. Companies all over the world have stepped up their game to ensure a high quality of life for their employees by offering all sorts of competitive perks and benefits. But we have found the one company that has every other place beat, hands down, no question. BrewDog, a brewery based in Scotland, announced on Monday that it would be instituting "Puppy Parental Leave" across their company. SEE ALSO: Gather round and be blessed by this precious puppy's 'newborn' photoshoot "We know only too well that having a new arrival – whether a mewling pup or unsettled rescue dog – can be stressful for human and hound both," BrewDog stated on its website. "So we are becoming the first in our industry to give our staff a working week's leave on us to help settle a new furry family member into their home." If it were possible to give an entire company a hug, we would be doing it to BrewDog right now. Their announcement also came with this adorable video explaining the policy. As you may have guessed by the brewery's name, dogs are an essential part of the identity of BrewDog. Indeed, the brewery was founded by two men and a dog. "Ever since Bracken, the original Brew Dog, first watched James and Martin mash in batch number one of Punk IPA back in 2007 dogs have been central to our way of life," the brewery mentions on its site. BrewDog also encourages its employees to bring their dogs to work. Their main office in Scotland boasts 50 "office dogs." How does anyone get any work done there?

And just a reminder, the puppy paid leave policy extends to all employees anywhere. We'll just leave their careers page here for you for easy access. BONUS: Meet the dog who's basically a saint

Turkey 'no' voters demonised as tight referendum looms

Posted: 17 Feb 2017 07:26 AM PST

Turkey 'no' voters demonised as tight referendum loomsTurkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and his supporters are increasingly demonising voters thinking of rejecting a plan to grant him greater powers in an April referendum, raising fears of a further polarisation of society. Turkey will on April 16 vote in a referendum on constitutional changes to create a presidential system which Erdogan argues is needed for better governance but critics fear will lead to one man rule. Polls are indicating a tight race with approval for the plan by no means a foregone conclusion, opening the way for the kind of no-holds-barred campaign in which Erdogan revels.

Why Exercise Is Not Enough to Prevent Weight Gain

Posted: 16 Feb 2017 10:54 PM PST

Why Exercise Is Not Enough to Prevent Weight GainExercise on its own — without also following a healthy diet — isn't enough to help people lose or even just maintain their weight, a recent study suggests. The new results run counter to the idea that the obesity epidemic in the U.S. is caused by a lack of physical activity, said lead study author Lara Dugas, an assistant professor of public health sciences at Loyola University Chicago Stritch School of Medicine. When it comes to figuring out the causes of obesity, "what we really need to look at is what people are eating," Dugas told Live Science.

Ex-Hong Kong leader Tsang guilty of misconduct in graft trialFormer Hong Kong leader Donald Tsang was Friday found guilty of misconduct during his time at the helm of the city in a high-profile corruption trial, but escaped conviction for bribery. Tsang, 72, held the leadership post of chief executive for seven years from 2005 and is the most senior city official ever to be convicted in a criminal trial. The case comes at a time when residents are losing faith in Hong Kong's leaders, as a string of prominent corruption cases fuel public suspicions over links between authorities and business figures.


How to install the genius media app that Apple banned from the App Store

How to install the genius media app that Apple banned from the App Store

What is Kodi and why should one want to install on the iPhone or any other iOS device? It's a versatile media player that's already quite popular with the crowds. You may have used it on other devices back when it was called XBMC. Unfortunately, it's not the kind of application that Apple allows in the App Store, so you can't really enjoy it on iOS devices unless you're willing to jailbreak the phone, or pull off other tricks that would let you sideload the app.

If you're looking to install Kodi on the iPhone 7 or any other kind of iOS device without jailbreaking, then you're in luck. It looks like such a method is already available.

The method does work, and it's as shady as you can expect. But if you can't go without Kodi in your life, and you don't want to jailbreak the iPhone 7, or can't find a method that jailbreaks the phone, then you could always go for this option.

Discovered by Kodi Tips the trick involves navigating to a shady site — just because it's in a language you don't understand — and downloading an app to your iPhone.

Once that's done, an error message will appear when you'll try to run Kodi. However, you can fix it by simply choosing to trust the application from the phone's Settings menu. Check out Kodi Tips full instructions if you really want to go through with the procedure.

Finally, if all else fails, there's one other type of Kodi install for the iPhone that you can try, which doesn't require a jailbreak either. You have to pretend you're an app developer and use Apple's Xcode to get the app running on your iOS device — Macworld has all the instructions, assuming the method is still available.


Climate doubter Pruitt takes EPA reins as Trump targets regulations

Climate doubter Pruitt takes EPA reins as Trump targets regulationsBy Timothy Gardner WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. Senate confirmed President Donald Trump's pick to run the Environmental Protection Agency on Friday over the objections of Democrats and environmentalists worried he will gut the agency, as the administration readies executive orders to ease regulation on drillers and miners. The installation of Scott Pruitt, who sued the agency he intends to lead more than a dozen times as Oklahoma attorney general, reinforces expectations on both sides of the political divide that America will cede its position as a leader in the global fight on climate change. Senators voted 52-46 to approve Pruitt, who was to be sworn in later on Friday afternoon at the White House.
