BRUNO MARS celebrity/historical figure has a dark past everyone seems to ignore?


Although Bruno Mars now has a collection of catchy music, a large following, and a lavish lifestyle, he comes from humble beginnings.
By humble, I mean homeless.
Times were tough and bleak for the family, which consisted of Bruno, his father, and his brother. He had divorced parents. They lived in an austere building in the center of a birding zoo. It had no bathroom, forcing them to cross the park to find a toilet.

Then the park, which his father was the keeper of, shut down. Bruno and his family would sleep wherever they could, from tops of buildings to back of vehicles.

"My dad was just the king of finding these little spots for us to stay that we should never have been staying at," Mars reported in a broadcast.

The trio soon found a one-bedroom shack to live in. All that Mars really had at that time was his brother, father, and optimism. His traumatic experiences just made him try harder to reach his goal

What are the best one-minute life hacks?


1. Flip your burger before eating it. This decreases the chances of everything falling out the sides as it will press down on the loose items.

2. Put water in a glass, not a bottle. Our mind does not like unfinished things, so by putting water in a glass you are more likely to finish it and drink more throughout the day.

3. Get a song out of your head by singing the end. By the same reason as mentioned above you can easily get songs unstuck by singing the last line of the song.

4. Take better breaks. Sit back in your chair and turn it around. Do not get up, do some conscious breaths and sit there for 45 seconds. That is all the time you need to get recharged.

What are some examples of assassination attempts gone wrong?


A group of hitmen refused to kill a victim as she was a woman and let her free to get her revenge.
In 2015, the Australian Noela Rukundo (who's the lady in the photo) went to Burundi to attend the funeral of her stepmother who passed away only a couple of weeks back.

Straight after the funeral when she was going out to get some fresh air, she was quite suddenly kidnapped at gunpoint and shoved into a vehicle. She was blindfolded and driven to a safe house somewhere in the country.

Inside the building she was tied up, and a sack put on her head and was asked by her captors:

“You woman, what did you do for this man to pay us to kill you?”

“Wh-what are you talking about?” said Noela, she was shaking uncontrollably.

“Balenga (Noela husband) sent us to kill you.”

“What? My husband will never do that, y-you’re lying!”

Her captors smirked and giggled. She then heard a phone dialling and a voice coming from a loud speaker:

“Kill her”

It was her husband. Noela fainted.

Have you ever seen someone treat someone else horribly and receive instant karma?



In 1999, Paul Warner Powell, a 20-year-old man, was obsessed with 16-year-old Stacie Reed, who wasn’t into him.

Upon learning she had an African-American boyfriend, he grew furious, as a self-proclaimed white supremacist. He broke into her house and demanded to date her. When she resisted his advances, he killed her.

He then took the time to go downstairs and pour a glass of iced tea, waiting for Kristie Reed, Stacie’s 14-year-old sister, to come home from school. When Kristie asked him where her sister was, he dragged her down to the basement and stabbed her, leaving her to die.

Or so he thought.

What sounds extremely wrong, but is actually correct?



What if I told you that you might've had a fraternal twin but you ate it?

This might sound like some horror story or fiction but it isn't. It's a medical phenomenon called “chimera”.

In 2002, a pregnant American woman was fighting with her ex over the custody of their 2 children. And as the procedures of that case required, both of them provided DNA samples to prove that they are the biological parents. However, the result of the tests proved that her ex is indeed the father…. But she's not the mother !

All papers and witnesses proved that she's the mother no doubt but her DNA said otherwise. She was accused of being a fraud. However, the judge decided that the case will be on hold until the 3rd child is born and tested. And when the child arrived, once again the DNA of the mother did not match [1] ! After taking many samples from her body, the only DNA that actually proved that she's the mother was a sample from her uterus.

The US could see a second wave of Covid-19 infections because of the protests

U.S. Surgeon General Jerome Adams speaks during an event at the White House in Washington DC, on May 26.

US Surgeon General Dr. Jerome Adams warned the nation to expect new outbreaks of coronavirus resulting from the George Floyd protests that have seen thousands of people gather in close proximity.

"I remain concerned about the public health consequences both of individual and institutional racism (and) people out protesting in a way that is harmful to themselves and to their communities," Adams told Politico in an interview published Monday.
"Based on the way the disease spreads, there is every reason to expect that we will see new clusters and potentially new outbreaks moving forward," he added.
The US hasn't even contained its current outbreak, let alone prepare for a second wave. The nation is still seeing about 20,000 new cases of Covid-19 every day.

Some states are doing better than others -- but the entire West Coast is still seeing its infection rate tick upward, as well as South Carolina, which was one of the first states to start reopening.

What are some of the most morally justified crimes ever committed?



Getting hacked is pretty much what you sign up for as soon as you start using the internet.

But amidst this cyber-criminal cesspit is a Russian man who goes by the name of 'Alexey'.

What sets him aside from the others?

The hacker breaks into people's routers to … stop other hackers breaking into them.

Although I’m sure he sounds exactly like a walking contradiction, think of him as sort of like the contemporary Robin Hood.

Pope calls death of George Floyd "tragic" and says racism is a sin

Pope Francis celebrates Holy Mass on the Solemnity of Pentecost in Vatican City, Italy, on May 31.

Pope Francis spoke out on Wednesday morning in the Vatican about the "tragic" death of George Floyd.

Speaking at his weekly Angelus prayer, the Pope said, “Dear brothers and sisters in the United States, I have witnessed with great concern the disturbing social unrest in your nation in these past days, following the tragic death of Mr. George Floyd."
“My friends, we cannot tolerate or turn a blind eye to racism and exclusion in any form and yet claim to defend the sacredness of every human life. At the same time, we have to recognize that the violence of recent nights is self-destructive and self-defeating. Nothing is gained by violence and so much is lost."
Francis added that he is praying for the “repose of the soul of George Floyd and of all those others who have lost their lives as a result of the sin of racism.”

Jupiter like it's never been seen before


Kevin Gill: "A collage of ultra-wide-angle Jupiter views created using reprojected images captured by the Juno spacecraft."

Since 2016, the Juno spacecraft has circled Jupiter, scanning the atmosphere and mapping its magnetic and gravitational fields. It's also carrying JunoCam, a camera specifically designed to record images of the poles; areas of the gas giant not previously well documented. "We do not have a formal imaging science team on Juno, so we have turned to the public to help us out," says Candice Hansen-Koharcheck, Juno co-investigator responsible for JunoCam.

 The amateur astronomy community assists with planning, she explains, determining when JunoCam should photograph the planet and where. Once images are sent back to Earth, the public has access to raw data, which, with a little photo editing know-how, have been processed into some of the most stunning images yet seen of Jupiter. "I don't know what we would do without them!" says Hansen-Koharcheck. "Over the past two years we have come to rely on them ... as important members of our virtual team." Among the most prolific and noted submitters are people working in the scientific community.
