The kids are as charming and inspiring as you'd expect; the parents are pretty cool too.
From Anna Kournikova's wealthy kid brother Allan to a working-class female Tiger Woods wannabe nicknamed Tigress, these pint-size stars are living proof of how the sport's young talent has transcended class and racial barriers. Kids don't have to enjoy the game—golf, in this case—to get a kick out of this film. Regardless of one's stance on immigration reform, the story is a wonderful example of how disenfranchised students can perform with guidance and educational support.

Also notable is that the film's young smarties were all undocumented immigrants at the time. You see the kids get super excited about this competition, and it really shows that if you work hard, you can beat anybody,” says Betsy Bozdech, Common Sense's executive editor of ratings and reviews. This charming documentary gets high marks from Common Sense Media, a nonprofit that publishes age-based media reviews and advocates for greater awareness of the impact of media on children.

It's the ultimate underdog tale: A robotics team from a low-income high school takes on students from MIT in a 2004 national underwater robotics competition and wins. As a bonus, we've thrown in family-friendly movies and streaming picks to pass the time as a group throughout winter break. They won't get tossed aside come New Year's Day, and they'll likely land you in the Most Awesome Parent/Relative/Family Friend Hall of Fame.

Remember that because Tinder can access your Facebook account, spammers can add a veneer of legitimacy to a scheme by automated testing tools pretending your friends have recommended it. Bitdefender reports that the scam appears to be geo-targeted, meaning only U.S. Tinder users are affected. The developer of "Castle Clash," Singapore-based , has also denied connection to the Tinder spambots.

The URL has clearly been designed to look legitimate, but in fact Tinder seems to be uninvolved. The same photos have also been used as profile pictures for fake Facebook accounts. Now Romania-based security firm Bitdefender is investigating the case.

A Reddit user named domogrue appears to be the first person who reported the scam. In its next BTO launch scheduled for March, HDB will offer about 4,110 new flats for sale in Bukit Batok, Bedok, Bukit Timah, Bukit Panjang, Geylang, Toa Payoh and Clementi. At the same time, Waterway Sunbeam features three- to five-room flats with prices starting from S$117,000.

The Fernvale Lea project features two- to five-room flats with prices starting from S$83,000, or S$23,000 after grants. This information will be sent to our editors for review. Once reported, our staff will be notified and the comment will be reviewed.

For a onetime fee of nearly $2,000, ScientificMatch connects customers based on their physical chemistry, determined via DNA samples. Not just for Trekkies, the Trek Passions social network and personals site welcomes fans of Star Wars, Isaac Asimov, Ben Bova, Robert A. Heinlein, Douglas Adams, Arthur C. Clarke & more. According to the site's curators, Meet-An-Inmate helps connect "attractive" incarcerated men and women with non-incarcerated singles via letter and photo exchanges.

The site claims that its male members earn over $100,000 a year and even offers women a "sugar daddy" search option. WealthyMen purportedly connects wealthy men and attractive women. Boasting 150,000 registered users, Farmers Only bills itself as a personals site for farmers, ranchers, agriculture students, rodeo enthusiasts, animal lovers, livestock owners, country wannabes, and down-to-earth singles.

Claiming to be a haven for furry fandom, Pounced presents an open-minded community that connects artists, writers, publishers and "fursuiters" (those who dress in fur suits or anthropomorphic animal costumes for entertainment or pleasure). Vampire Passions, a dating site and social network, welcomes "vampires" and "vampire lovers." While searching for potential dates, members can join groups like "sanguine vampirism," "newly turned," "amateur vampire hunter," "Team Edward," "Buffy," "Dracula," and many more.
