It’s the end of Europe as we know it

Stefan Wermut/Reuters

The citizens of the United Kingdom have voted to leave the European Union.

In doing so, they have undone a half-millennium of work toward pacifying the most war-torn continent on the planet earth.

Europe has always been at war with itself. The Pax Romana never fully pacified the Germanic tribes. Strife was frequent through the Middle Ages. The battle of Agincourt solidified enmity between the English and the French.

The Thirty Years War was one of the bloodiest conflicts in the history of mankind. The Napoleonic Wars shook the world. And the world wars of the 20th century killed about half as many people as had existed on the entire planet at the time Julius Caesar conquered Britain for Rome 2,000 years earlier.

50 CENT HAS BEEN ARRESTED FOR SAYING “M*THERFUCKER” IN ST. KITTS

Yes, we checked. It’s Curtis Jackson that was arrested, not Samuel Jackson.

TMZ is reporting that after a show in St. Kitts last night, 50 Cent was arrested for using profanity in public. Specifically, the word “motherf*cker,” which 50 didn’t shy away from screaming into a microphone, due to his DJ not having a clean version of the song being performed.

Fif was allowed to finish his set, but cops were waiting for him when he left the stage to arrest him and take him into custody. It’s a misdemeanor charge, but because it’s the weekend, Curtis will have to hang out in St. Kitts until court business resumes on Monday.

Possible human remains found in deadly California wildfire

 

 Authorities may have found human remains Saturday within a voracious wildfire in central California that has claimed two lives and burned 150 homes.

The tally rose from 80 homes as firefighters began going through neighborhoods to count houses and mobile homes incinerated by the blaze.

In one mobile home, they found what appears to be a set of human remains, but because they were so badly burned forensic investigators will have to determine whether they belonged to a person or animal, Kern County Sheriff's spokesman Ray Pruitt said.

Fred Amata Allegedly Robbed, Car Jacked & Assaulted by Robber

According ng to a Facebook post by Matthias Obahiagbon, Nollywood actor and President of Directors Guild of Nigeria (DGN) Fred Amata was assaulted yesterday by armed robbers who also made away with his car and other valuables.

See what his friend posted on Facebook below:

“He was on his way back from a business dinner, on behalf of his guild, very tired and looking forward to the warmth of his bed. As he waited almost endlessly for the street gate to be opened by the security guards, lo and behold some four fierce looking gun-toting men appeared from the dark night, no thanks to PHCN, and off they went with him as captive in his own car. After stripping him of some valuables it was time to demand for the now famous ATM. What is it about these criminals and ATMs, especially at weekends?  Each time his response to giving them the ATM was in the negative his face was visited with slaps. Who do we hold responsible for the blatant abuse, assault, and stealing with impunity of this night marauders? However, we are thankful he is alive to tell his story after he was dropped off miles away from his home without shoes. These were taken from him, though he begged that they allow him have his clothes on as a public figure. Na God touch their heart there. Luckily the police drove him home in a patrol vehicle at almost 3am. A report of his stolen vehicle has been made to the police; a signal already sent across Lagos state; one of his many phone lines retrieved; and a phone bought for easy communication.”

A young boy has lost his place at his secondary school - for visiting his dying grandad.

Josh Palfrey was kicked out of Barr Beacon School in Walsall for travelling to Alaska to carry out his grandfather’s final wish, according to the Birmingham Mail.

Arthur Palfrey, aged 83, had said he wanted his family around him when he slipped away.

Last night Josh made a plea to be allowed back into school, where he says he has lots of friends.

He said: “Please allow me to come back to school. I only left to visit my dying granddad in Alaska.”

Senior staff, however, are standing firm.

They say that Josh’s father was warned of the official policy and the repercussions of snubbing those rules.

That's thin material, girl

There's no prizes for guessing Who’s That Girl striding down a London street looking just like her mum at the same age.Pop superstar Madonna’s daughter Lourdes, 19, has the same distinctive eyebrows, dark hair and confident stance.

The resemblance is uncanny when you compare pictures of Lourdes with a young Madge in 1979.

And the revealing top seems to suggest she has followed mum’s advice to skimp on the Material, Girl.

The pair enjoy a close relationship and Lourdes even has a tattoo tribute across her right knuckles which reads “Mom”.

Freja on her 18th, wearing favourite black dress

Flicking through family albums of her kids playing happily in the sun, Jennifer Nicholson strives to remember the carefree days before her eldest daughter was cruelly taken from her.

They should be precious snapshots of a life that ended all too soon.

But instead of relishing happy memories, the single mum is overcome with grief and guilt.

She can’t help but wonder which of the sun-drenched pictures shows the day her daughter Freja received her life sentence.

Last November, aged 18, the ­beautiful, intelligent student died from skin cancercaused by sun damage.

Now Jennifer, 50, blames herself for not religiously applying sun cream on Freja’s fair skin in the hot British summers of her childhood. Doctors say that if she had, Freja might still be alive.

In a desperate plea, Jennifer urges other parents to safeguard their children.

She says: “There isn’t a day that goes by when I don’t wish I could go back and just take five minutes to put suncream on her delicate young skin when I mistakenly thought there was no danger.

“No mother should see her child die. I cradled mine in my arms as she took her last breaths and with her a part of me died too.

“You never think it’ll be your child and you never think the sun in Britain could be fierce enough to kill, but Freja’s story is proof that it is.

The absurd life of Boris Johnson, the man who could be Britain's next Conservative prime minister

Former London Mayor Boris Johnson led the campaign for Britain to leave the EU, and now he has reason to celebrate.

Thursday's referendum ended in a narrow win for the "Leave" side.

Not only did Boris' cause emerge victorious, but he's also a favorite to replace David Cameron as prime minister, now that Cameron has announced his intention to resign.

Johnson is a clownish character, but he's got enviable popularity levels and is known by his first name across the UK. He's even affectionately referred to as "BoJo" over social media.

Here are some pictures of his life and rise to power.
