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 some of the strangest facts about famous movies?

Romeo and Juliet: Hair and make up artist Aldo Signoretti was kidnapped by gang members and held captive. The gang asked for $300 for Aldo’s return, and the film producers paid in order to save him. When the gang received the money, they threw Aldo out of a moving car, which broke his leg in the process, but he was saved.

What are some of the most awesome psychological facts?

• The last person you think of before falling asleep is usually either the reason you are happy or sad.
• Smarter people are more likely to underestimate themselves.
• The longer you hide feelings for someone, the harder you fall for that person.
• When you try to recall a past event, you are actually remembering the last time you remembered it, not the event itself.

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

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.

Can you really make significant money using affiliate marketing?

Because you’re on top of the answers, I’m not replying to you, but adding my answer here, so people that come across this question don’t stop short at your answer.

I’ve been involved in the affiliate marketing business for nearly 17 years through various companies and across very competitive verticals - Gambling, Trading, Adult.

While you have a few valid and good points in your answer, the particular question you’ve been asked to answer: “Can you really make significant money using affiliate marketing”, you are 100% wrong… And it’s ok to be wrong.

First of all, let’s define a few things so we’re all on the same page:

Significant money: Depending on where you live, significant money can be 2000$ or 20000$ (per month).

In the course of my career I founded several affiliate programs and managed thousands of affiliates. I’m not doing it anymore, and i’m not promoting a product through affiliates (although TrackingDesk has a referral program), so what I’m about to say has no impact on my current ventures or occupation.

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 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.”

George Floyd protests spread nationwide

5 facts you need to know 

1. It's the eighth day of protests across the US over the death of George Floyd, an unarmed black man, at the hands of Minneapolis police.
2.  One former officer was charged with third-degree murder and manslaughter — but protesters argue it's not enough, and other officers involved should also be charged.
3. President Trump vowed yesterday to deploy the military if widespread violence isn't quelled. 
4. Nearly half of the US has activated the National Guard. 
5. Despite major cities around the country enacting curfews, including New York and Washington, DC, protesters are still taking to the streets and facing arrest. 

Jupiter like it's never been seen before

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. 

Thousands around the world protest George Floyd's death in global display of solidarity

Protesters have marched in the US for six consecutive nights over the death of George Floyd at the hands of a police officer. Their anger over the killing of the unarmed black man has now spread worldwide. Over the weekend demonstrators gathered in London, Berlin and Auckland, among other cities, to protest against police brutality in solidarity with the US crowds. 

Britain 

In London, protesters rallied in Trafalgar Square on Sunday morning, in defiance of Britain's lockdown rules which prohibit large gatherings. Some participants marched to the US embassy in the capital's Nine Elms area.

The asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs hit at 'deadliest possible' angle

The city-size asteroid that hit Earth 66 million years ago and doomed the dinosaurs to extinction came from the northeast at a steep angle, maximizing the amount of climate-changing gases unleashed into the atmosphere, a new study has found. That the 200 kilometer (125 mile) wide Chicxulub crater in present-day Mexico was formed when the asteroid struck, ultimately killing off three-quarters of life on the planet, is a fact most scientists agree on. 

But the trajectory and direction of that impact is still a topic of debate. In a new study, an international team of researchers said their 3D simulations showed that the asteroid hit at an angle of 40 to 60 degrees —

 what Gareth Collins, a professor of planetary science at Imperial College London's department of earth science and engineering, described as a worst-case scenario for the dinosaurs. "The asteroid strike unleashed an incredible amount of climate-changing gases into the atmosphere, triggering a chain of events that led to the extinction of the dinosaurs. 

Handcuffed black man dies after white policeman kneeled on his neck during arrest

Distressing footage shows a black man pleading that he can't breathe as a white police officer kneels on his neck, shortly before he died. The clip, taken by a passerby, captures the man - named in US media reports as George Floyd - begging the officer: "Don't kill me." The FBI is now investigating the man's death after the video, which was shared on Facebook, sparked outrage. 

 In a statement Minneapolis mayor Jacob Frey voiced his outrage, saying: "Being Black in America should not be a death sentence." It happened during an arrest in Minneapolis at around 8pm yesterday.

 The man repeatedly said he couldn't breathe, saying: “I cannot breathe! I cannot breathe! Don’t kill me!” Two officers have been suspended with pay, police chiefs said. The Minneapolis Police Department said in a statement that they were called to reports of forgery and found the man, in his 40s, sitting on top of a car.  

He “appeared to be under the influence,” the statement said, continuing: “He was ordered to step from his car. “After he got out, he physically resisted officers. "Officers were able to get the suspect into handcuffs and noted he appeared to be suffering medical distress.”

Police show 'rape kit' found after serial rapist 'Beast of Kavos' was arrested

Greek police have published photos of an apparent 'rape kit' discovered following the arrest of the so-called Beast of Kavos. On Friday, Dimitris Aspiotis was arrested after he plunged 100ft down a cliff in Kavos. Police officers scoured the area and found a stash of items close to where the 47-year-old was arrested.

 They included a shotgun, pliers and two screwdrivers. Several mobile phones, gloves, knives, a solar charging panel, batteries, an oil lamp and a candle were also uncovered. Aspiotis, who has been dubbed the 'Beast of Kavos', broke his back after into a ravine on the Greek holiday island. He was reportedly arrested after emergency workers hauled him out of the spot on a stretcher.

Horror injuries of woman whose face and hands were ripped off by pet chimp… and survived

WHEN Charla Nash was savagely mauled by her friend's pet chimpanzee, it was a wonder she survived at all. Charla's face and hands were ripped off by teenage chimp, Travis in an attack which many still struggle to comprehend. The explosion of Netflix’s Tiger King has brought to light the global issue of wild animals being raised as a domestic pet. But as shocking as the life of Joe Exotic and his pet tigers has been - it doesn’t begin to compare to the tragic tale of Charla Nash. In 2009, 50-year-old Charla was violently attacked by her friend's pet chimpanzee, Travis - who weighed over 200-pounds. Her hands, eyelids, nose and lips were torn from her body. 

 By the time emergency responders got to the scene, there was very little left of her face. Charla was visiting her friend Sandra Herold in Stamford Connecticut, where she had raised her pet chimpanzee Travis for most of his life. Travis was adopted by Sandra and Jerome Herold when he was just thee days old after his mother was shot dead while trying to escape the Missouri Chimpanzee Sanctuary. Conditioned to a life that resembled a mix of a domestic pet and small child, Travis learnt to eat with his owners at the dinner table - and was even known to drink wine. Travis would travel to the local shops and was well known throughout the neighbourhood - becoming somewhat of a local celebrity and appearing in television ads. The beloved pet had even learned to drive a car and had been seen behind the wheel several times. 

RAP MURDER Rapper Mota Jr found tortured to death by burglars after sharing ‘billionaire lifestyle’ and wads of cash on Instagram

A RAPPER who shared his 'billionaire lifestyle' with fans online has been found tortured to death by burglars. David Mota, known as Mota Jr, was found dead after he was reported missing over two months ago.

 The Portuguese musician went missing on March 15, when it is believed he was kidnapped outside of his family home in the municipality of Sintra. The rapper's mother, Filomena Mota, said he had received a phone call in the middle of the night to go down to the door of the building. It is believed he was then abducted by two armed men in hoods.

 Speaking to TVI in April, Filomena said she received a call from a neighbour at 2am asking if her son was okay - and she then realised he was not in his room. She also said she found her son's hat and slippers at the entrance to the building, as well as splashes of blood in the elevator, suspecting that Mota Jr had been abducted. Filomena also revealed that on the night of the abduction she answered a call made to Mota Jr’s phone, from a girl who claimed she was going to enter the building with him when instead two men pointed a gun at the young man and sent her away. 

Netflix star and Japanese wrestler, Hana Kimura dies at 22

Hana Kimura, a Japanese professional wrestler who was also a cast member on the most recent season of Netflix’s reality show “Terrace House,” has died at the age of 22. Stardom Wrestling, the organization Hana was part of confirmed her death in a statement issued on Saturday May 23.

 “We are very sorry to report that our Hana Kimura has passed away. Please be respectful and allow some time for things to process, and keep your thoughts and prayers with her family and friends.” A cause of death was not immediately clear. However, the most recent update on her Instagram story on Friday featured a photo of her with her cat, with a caption that reads “goodbye.

Online Ticketing, Social Distancing, and Sanitizer: Drive-in cinemas berths in New york Lagos, Abuja During COVID-19

Drive-in movie theaters have been something of a salvation during the coronavirus pandemic. As one of the few entertainment joints that are safe to visit outside of the house, they’ve enjoyed a huge boost in popularity. But don’t call it a comeback, says Transit Drive-In Theater owner Rick Cohen.

Outdoor moviegoing, once seen as a relic from another century, has become the go-to spot for those itching to social distance from their couch. That’s left Cohen, whose venue is in upstate New York, regularly fielding calls from local and national reporters.

“I’m juggling all this media — they’re all over the drive-in resurgence,” Cohen tells Variety days after his theater opened for the season. “Drive-ins aren’t having a resurgence. Drive-ins have been doing well. It’s a resurgence of the media remembering that drive-ins still exist.”

That may be true, but there’s no denying that drive-in theaters are uniquely suited to thrive while most multiplexes stay closed due to the global heath crisis. And though there aren’t many left in the U.S. — about 300 drive-ins still exist, compared to over 5,400 brick-and-mortar theaters — they’ve been rare bright spots for the exhibition industry. The bulk of those who own and operate cinemas are struggling to survive, having been left without a way to make money while theaters are shuttered.

As the coronavirus pandemic continues to put a strain on film industries across the world, drive-in cinemas have reported a surge in attendance in the U.S., Germany, France, and parts of Asia.

Drive-in cinemas are experiencing a boom not just for films but for church services and concerts.

A drive-in theatre or drive-in cinema is a form of cinema structure consisting of a large outdoor movie screen, a projection booth, a concession stand, and a large parking area for automobiles.

Within this enclosed area, customers can view movies from the privacy and comfort of their cars.

Back here in Nigeria, as the effects of coronavirus pandemic bite harder in Nollywood, a Nigerian filmmaker, Charles Okpaleke, is pioneering the introduction of drive-in cinemas in Abuja and Lagos.

Questions arise on coronavirus data used to back reopenings

The firing of a Florida state health official who says she refused orders to change data on coronavirus cases has raised questions about some of the statistics that governors have used to justify ending lockdown orders. Rebekah Jones, who designed and managed the state’s COVID-19 dashboard, told CBS News 12 in West Palm Beach that her departure earlier this month was “not voluntary” and that she was removed from her position because she was ordered to censor some data. 

She said she refused to “manually change data to drum up support for the plan to reopen.” In an email to her colleagues alerting them to her departure two weeks ago, Jones wrote, “As a word of caution, I would not expect the new team to continue the same level of accessibility and transparency that I made central to the process during the first two months. 

After all, my commitment to both is largely (arguably entirely) the reason I am no longer managing it.” Jones served as the geographic information system manager for the Florida Department of Health’s Division of Disease Control and Health Protection. The dashboard had been previously praised by White House coronavirus adviser Dr. Deborah Birx. 

The state’s governor, Ron DeSantis, is a Republican and close ally of President Trump who initially hesitated to fully shut down the state and has pushed for reopening.

“The Florida COVID-19 Dashboard was created by the Geographic Information System (GIS) team in the Division of Disease Control and Health Protection at the Florida Department of Health,” DeSantis spokesperson Helen Aguirre Ferré told the Miami Herald in a statement.

Nearly 200 people arrested, two shot during 'Go Topless Jeep Weekend'

A raucous Texas beach event known as "Go Topless Jeep Weekend" ended with two people hospitalized following a shooting and nearly 200 others arrested on various charges. Galveston County Sheriff Henry Trochesset said two men were airlifted to the hospital after both of them were shot in the torso during the annual event on Bolivar Peninsula, which brings together thousands of Jeep lovers and 4-wheeler enthusiasts. A group of men and women were arguing when the fight escalated and gunshots rang out, Trochesset told on the  News. 

The conditions of the two men who were hospitalized haven't been released. Authorities are looking for a third man who fled, the sheriff said Tuesday. No arrests were made in the shooting, and the investigation is ongoing. By the time the gathering ended, more than 180 attendees had been taken into custody on numerous unrelated charges.
