Guitar Hero looks totally different. The bright, caricatured rockstars of yesteryear have morphed into real-life musicians playing in front of live audiences. The assault of colour-coded inputs racing towards you is still there, of course, but it’s evolved into a more elegant system. It immediately looks like a more contemporary incarnation of the familiar Guitar Hero experience, but there's more to its new appearance than a desire to look modern.

“We thought of it as a clean slate," Jamie Jackson, the creative director tells me. "One of the briefs I gave the team early on was to think of it just as a name. Think of it as a music game with a guitar peripheral, but pretend that nothing else has ever been done. We want to come back with some big innovation and to do that we almost felt like we needed to start from scratch.

Though there's no official word yet on either a Season 3 pick up for Marvel's Agents of SHIELD or a Season 2 renewal for Marvel's Agent Carter, news has broken that both Marvel and ABC are in the midst of developing an Agent of SHIELD spinoff series.

Per EW.com, this new spinoff would not come about via "backdoor pilot" (a bubble-episode within a season that introduces brand new characters who are intended to get immediately spun off) but instead would be based on a story arc featured in the remaining Season 2 SHIELD episodes. Plot details and characters about the new spinoff are zilch at this point though. No info other than in hailing from SHIELD producer Jeffrey Bell (Angel, The X-Files) and series writer Paul Zbyszewski (Lost).

Furious 7's outrageous double-skyscraper jump could be doable, according to a physics professor.

Speaking with Vulture, Pierce College professor Lee Loveridge says the stunt involving the $3.4 million Lykan Hypersport - of which there are only seven in existence -  jumping from one skyscraper to another could feasibly happen.

“To be honest, that is probably the most plausible stunt in the whole movie,” Loveridge said.

The scene takes place in the Etihad Towers in Abu Dhabi, a complex that includes five skyscraper towers with the tallest measuring 1,002 feet in height and the shortest at 714 feet. Dom (Vin Diesel) and Brian (Paul Walker) jump the supercar from what appears to be Etihad Tower 2 and land the car in Etihad Tower 3. They then proceed to jump it from Tower 3 into Etihad Tower 4 or 5 at a distance of about 150 feet between each tower, according to the Vulture breakdown.

A Russian man with a terminal illness is ready to undergo the world's first human-head transplant as early as next year.

Valery Spiridinov, a 30-year-old computer scientist from Vladimir, Russia, told the Daily Mail that he has full faith in the controversial Dr. Sergio Canavero, the Italian physician many medical professionals are criticizing for his radical views. Canavero recently said he thinks modern science can support a head-transplant procedure, and has been working to gather funds and resources.

'Am I afraid?" Spridinov said. "Yes, of course I am. But it is not just very scary, but also very interesting." Spiridinov was born with the rare Werdnig-Hoffmann muscle-wasting disease, a severe category of spinal muscular atrophy. He said he wants to take his chance at having a healthy body before he dies. "My decision is final and I do not plan to change my mind."

Breaks its own record. Again

Kids are kids, whatever the species.  So when this baby elephant at the Elephantstay sanctuary in Thailand saw his bath being filled his first reaction is, like any sensible child, to make a run up to it and dive in head first. 

Unfortunately there comes a time when one outgrows the paddling pool and this pampered pachyderm hardly fits!
I never knew that elephants were capable of such contortions (but the older one in the background is doing its best been there done that air of nonchalence.

The old proverb is true. In a cat's eye, everything belongs to cats. That includes, well, everything - including your sink. What has a certain use for us may be interpreted as useful in an altogether different way by our feline friends.  So it is with that useful household item, the sink.  Cats love them - but for very different reasons to us.  Prepared to be bemused and amused at the same time.  The words are related - we need no better excuse. So, because they can so can we - welcome to the world of cats in sinks.

They may always be quite certain what they are doing there themselves, as Phoebe the gorgeous Persian here seems to be indicating with that rather sullen but perplexed look on her face.  Perhaps that old Moroccan saying is true, after all - you cannot teach an old cat to dance.

Oliver has more of an idea.  A sink is the perfect place for a lying back, spreading out and surveying what little of the world there is left to survey.  After all, curiosity may have killed the cat, but satisfaction brought it back.  Go, Oliver.  Let's see another shot of the boy in action.

Sinks may seem fairly small to us but...

...to a cat they may just be the perfect hiding place.
It could be that there is something very secret, very hush hush to do in the sink - and as such, when you are caught be prepared to give only your name, rank and serial number. Penny should have been watching out for human interlopers much better, which means that Muttley has been caught out.  Or perhaps he is just trying to do his job.  After all the Chinese say that when rats infest the palace a lame cat is better than the swiftest horse.
