Serge Ibaka Is The Naked Athlete Selected For ESPN Body Issue Cover [Photos]
Today, the sports magazine finally unveiled its official cover, which has NBA player, Serge Ibaka, who is also currently dating Keri Hilson, showing off what he does best, but this time, naked.
Last month, ESPN Magazine trailed their 2014 Body Issue with tennis champion Venus Williams posing nude, here, as she hyped her Wimbledon return. Yesterday, we also saw some more naked athletes.
On the ESPN cover, the Congolese-Spanish basketballer bares it all with his athletic body in the air as he aims for a net. In the story, Serge Ibaka spoke about fitness, choosing basketball instead of football, playing basketball in Congo, his past major injury and what drives him.

Legal Marijuana Goes on Sale in Seattle and Around Washington State
SEATTLE – Washington became the second state Tuesday to allow people to buy marijuana legally in the U.S. without a doctor's note as customers eager to be the first to buy pot lined up outside stores.
People began purchasing marijuana at 8 a.m. at Bellingham's Top Shelf Cannabis, one of two stores in the city north of Seattle that started selling pot as soon as it was allowed under state regulations. Several dozen people waited outside before the store opened.
The first three customers in line were residents of Kansas, in Bellingham for their grandfather's 84th birthday. Sarah Gorton, 24, of Abilene, Kansas, came with her younger brother Robbie, as well as her boyfriend.
"It's just a happy coincidence and an opportunity we're not going to have for a long time," said Sarah Gorton, a 24-year-old with dreadlocks and homemade jewelry. "I'm really thrilled to be a part of something that I never thought would happen."
Would You Use a Contraceptive Computer Chip That Works For 16 Years?
A computer chip contraceptive that can be adjusted using remote control has been developed as an option for women's birth control. When implanted under a woman's skin, the chip will continue to release a small dose of the hormone, levonorgestrel, into her bloodstream daily for 16 years.
This will happen every day, but can be stopped at any time by using the wireless remote control.
Developed by a company in the US, the project has been backed by Bill Gates, and will be submitted for pre-clinical testing in the US next year - and possibly go on sale by 2018.
The device is small enough for size not to be a deterrent, and is "competitively priced" the creators said.

Lagos Slum Mechanic Trains and Mentors 3 UK Teens For BBC Reality TV Show
The UK's BBC3 has a new reality TV show titled Slum Survivors, which features young jobseekers who can't find work in the UK, and then the show gets them apprenticeships abroad.
The series kicks off in Lagos, which according to the BBC is a city obsessed with cars, and so the episode set in Lagos features British teens who want to be mechanics.
See photos of the reality show participants below as they fetch water, eat local delicacies, and do the local punishment, 'pick pin'. There's also a video trailer of the complete series.

Beyoncé Might Have New Half-sister As Her Father is Served With Second Paternity Suit
According to court documents filed against Beyonce's 63-year-old father on May 30 by a Houston-area woman, Matthew Knowles may also be the dad of a female child born in 2010.
30 year old lingerie model turned estate agent TaQoya Branscomb filed the courts document on May 30th where she named Matthew Knowles as the father of her 4 year old daughter.
Beyonce already has one half-brother she doesn't acknowledge, this means there may be a half sister to add to the list if these claims are true.
The woman says she gave birth to the child in 2010 in Harris County, Texas, and is demanding Matthew Knowles takes a DNA test. She is also asking for child support and money for her attorney’s fees.
