Billionaire loses $6bn in 1 day but is still the 5th richest in the world + see top 10 richest men


Amazon founder, Jeff Bezos (right) lost $6 billion in one day after his company's share price fell 11 percent but don't cry for him, he still has $49.2 billion even though he slipped from fourth place to fifth on Forbes's rich list.

According to Forbes, he was worth $49.8 billion at 5pm. In the space of 30 minutes he lost $800million, so ended up falling behind Carlos Slim Helu of Mexico, who is now the fourth richest person in the world with a net worth of $49.6 billion.



 Bezos prefers to look on the bright side of things however.
'Twenty years ago, I was driving the packages to the post office myself and hoping we might one day afford a forklift. This year, we pass 100 billion dollars in annual sales and serve 300 million customers. And still, measured by the dynamism we see everywhere in the marketplace and by the ever-expanding opportunities we see to invent on behalf of customers, it feels every bit like day one.'

Cop shoots 12 year old girl but her Dad gets charged for her death


The father of a 12-year-old Pennsylvania girl who was killed while a constable was serving an eviction notice has been charged with criminal homicide in his daughter's death, prosecutors said.
Don Meyer allegedly pointed a loaded semi-automatic assault rife at the chest of Constable Clarke Steele as they argued over an order to vacate on January 11.

Steele fired one round, which struck the 57-year-old father in the arm and then pierced the chest of his daughter, Ciara, who was hiding behind him. She died at the scene.
She had been home from school that day because she was sick.
 
Prosecutors upgraded charges against Meyer on Thursday. He now faces counts including criminal homicide, involuntary manslaughter, aggravated assault, endangering the welfare of children and illegal possession of weapons.
 
He is being held without bail in Pennsylvania's Perry County Jail and has pleaded not guilty.
Several eviction orders had been issued against Meyer, authorities said, and he had been notified by telephone that a constable was on the way to serve him with another notice. Meyer met the constable at the door of his apartment with the rifle slung over his shoulder, authorities said. 
Meyer allegedly raised the loaded weapon and pointed it at Steele's chest as the two argued.
“The constable was there the day before to remind them that the next day was the day they had to be out,” family member Hope Cordas Rohde told INSIDE EDITION after the shooting. “Don had an arsenal of weapons and he had them ready. He wasn’t going to pay,” she said.
Perry County District Attorney Andrew Bender has said the constable acted in self-defense and will not be charged in the shooting. The officer has been cleared of any wrongdoing.
By law, Meyer was not allowed to possess firearms because he had previously been involuntarily committed to a psychiatric facility, authorities said. Constables who responded to the shooting said they confiscated five weapons at Meyer's home.
Ciara's family blames her father for her death and they support the district attorney's decison to prosecute him for homicide.
“I think he is deserving of every single charge,” uncle Jason Gehman told ABC 27.
Ciara's grandmother, Alice Gehman, agreed. "I hope he never gets out," she told the station. "Because if he does, we are in trouble."
Fighting back tears, family members recounted how they recently sat down with constable Steele after he requested a meeting with Ciara's kin.
 
The officer is distraught over her death, they said.
“He just needed to have some kind of closure - that we don’t blame him for this,” Alice Gehman said. “It went wonderful and this man has so much pain, I cannot even explain it to you.”
The grandmother said she wrapped her arms around the officer.
“When I was holding him and he was saying how sorry he was, I said ‘How are you?’ And he said, ‘I can’t breathe.'''
She told him, "Just slow down, because everyone is having trouble breathing, believe me.”

Fresh Prince Janet Hubert calls Stacey Dash a Media Ho


Stacey Dash has received lots of harsh feedback after making some controversial comments regarding the all-white Oscars, Black History Month and BET.
Former Fresh Prince of Bel-Air actress, Janet Hubert, did not hold back when it came to her feelings regarding Dash, slamming her during an interview with The Huffington Post on Friday.

"Somebody needs to slap the little bit of black she got on her off of her, okay?" Hubert said. "Because girlfriend has worked on BET more than most actresses have. I think she's just saying this kind of bull because she wants sensationalism."
Hubert continued, "She's working for Fox, and she needs a job, and she's making a check, and she's bringing controversy to herself. Stacey is a bit of a media ho."

"I don't feel anything for Stacey because she absolutely puts the struggle way back, way back. It's just rude and wrong," she said. "If we didn't have BET, if we didn't have those kinds of awards, we'd have nothing. We'd have nothing to honor those wonderful performances…And as far as Black History Month is concerned, I don't even need to touch that because it's so stupid."
Finally, Hubert has one very clear message for the Clueless actress: "Stacey, just dash away, honey."

Dash has since clarified her divisive comments. In her blog, she explained that black history should be an integrated part of American history, rather than be relegated to a specific month of celebration. Regardless, Hubert added that Dash's ideas are a serious setback in the movement for racial equality.

Photos: Sylvester Stallone shares a hug with a homeless woman


The veteran actor who experienced poverty himself before hitting the big time stopped to share a warm hug with a homeless woman in Beverley Hills before giving her money after which he went to grab some food. He had previously spoken about having to sell his dogs to make ends meet.


He said:
'I sold my bullmastiff Butkus to a little person. You can't use the word "dwarf" any more? Let's just say a little person. I tied my dog up at the store with a sign that said a hundred bucks. I got $50 from this guy called Little Jimmy. When I sold the Rocky script, I went to see Little Jimmy and begged for the dog back. He lined up his children, "Oh my kids love the dog." I said, "You've only had him for a f***ing week." 'He wanted to fight me and said he was gonna kill me - he was a crazy little person. I couldn't fight him - they'd arrest me - so I offered to pay double. Anyway, $3,000 and several threats later...'

5 Reasons to #MakeYourMove


Your heart beats faster when she’s around. You wear your hottest outfit when you know you’ll see him. You think about him, or her – a lot. Seriously, just ask him/her out already! We know making the first move can be terrifying. You might get laughed at, fall flat on your face, or get friend-zoned forever. But extraordinary things can also happen when you make that leap of faith.

 With Valentine’s Day just coming up in a few weeks, isn’t it the perfect chance to get closer to the one? There’s no better time to take that shot.


Need inspiration? Closeup’s latest film http://goo.gl/QY7j8Ushows you just what kind of extraordinary things can unfold when you MakeYourMove.
And if you’re still not convinced, here are 5 reasons you need to #MakeYourMove…right now:            
1. Confidence is sexy
You can’t deny confidence is an instant turn on. The sense of hey-I’m-into-you-won’t-you-come-hang-out-with-me boldness is attractive and extremely difficult to ignore. Be ready to get closer for longer anytime and anywhere with the 12 hour fresh breath that only Closeup can give. Never be caught unprepared again!
2.No move. No date.
Fact: If you don’t make that move on him/her, you won’t get a date, and nobody wants to be alone especially on Valentine’s Day. We know that’s a no-brainer, but we thought we’d put it out there as a reminder for you to take that first step. It doesn’t have to be dramatic – a cup of coffee, a trip to the theme park or a movie night out!
3. You’ll finally know if they like you back
Asking someone out can be nerve-racking, because they could say no. But think about it – if you make a move you’ll finally know if he/she likes you back or not. No more agonizing, no more false hopes. You can finally move on and look to the future with renewed sense of purpose. Positivity rules. 
4.Life’s too short for regrets
A Closeup survey* found that 60% of people who regret not asking out someone they like still think about them. Do you really want to be stuck wondering “What if?” Or worse, being too late into the game and having someone else dating him? If you make your move you’ll at least know if you stood a chance.
5. “Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all.”
All adventures start with a single act of courage. How? Take a chance and put yourself out there once in a while. After all, a life that isn’t lived intensely is just not worth living. So this Valentine’s Day, go on and #MakeYourMove.

Amber Rose pours her heart out in an article for Time


In an Op-Ed for Time, Amber Rose poured out her heart like never seen before. She wrote on having to endure the judgement of others and constantly explaining herself. She revealed she has gotten over caring what people think and has chosen instead to just be herself. She wrote the piece a day after her tweet fight with Kanye. Read below...
"Ever since high school, I’ve been called a slut. All the boys were attracted to me—that wasn’t my fault! Then, when I started getting famous, the shaming got even worse.
All these messed up stories came out about me, and I was like, “That’s not true! I’m not that kind of girl!” But even things I had done—things a man would never be judged for—got me lots of hate.

After my ex-husband Wiz Khalifa and I got a divorce, I’d go out for a date at a restaurant like any normal single human and people would say, “Man, she’s such a ho. She’s out at restaurants with guys.” Then they would see my ex-husband with a bunch of women. They would say, “He’s the man! That’s so cool.” So when I went on a date, I’m a whore, and when he’s piling girls in a car, he’s the man? There’s something wrong here.

It wasn’t just men saying these types of things. There were a lot of women saying hateful things to me. I was getting torn down constantly. But in the past year, I’ve just started not caring.
People would actually say things like, “Who would ever love you? You were a stripper. Why are you in relationships?” And I used to feel like I had to explain that maybe it was because I’m a good person.

But I realized that I can’t make everyone believe. And I can’t talk to everyone and tell them who I really am. They’re still going to have their own opinions. If you know me, you love me. If you don’t know me, you might love me, but you might not—and that’s cool. And you know what? Now I sleep like a baby at night.

It wasn’t even that hard to stop caring what other people thought. I wasn’t married, and I didn’t have a boyfriend so I didn’t have to care about anyone else’s feelings or protect anyone’s heart. I thought, “This is my life. This is about me. If you don’t like it, I don’t care. I’m going to do anything and everything I want with my own life.”

What I’ve realized is that, when you care too much, you’re not living at your full potential. When you really stop caring about what people say, that’s when you really start living. It’s such an amazing feeling. It’s about loving who you are, owning who you are and knowing that it’s O.K. to live your life how you want to live it. We’re all human, which means we’re not all perfect. It’s so cool to think that I might help women think about who they want to be and then encourage them to be that person with no remorse. I want to help women just be happy in their own skin.

So please: Before you judge someone—especially another woman—put yourself in her shoes and also look at your past. That’s what a lot of women fail to do. They’re so quick to call another girl names, but it’s like: You know what? There may have been a time where you looked back and said, “I probably shouldn’t have done that.” Does that make you a ho? No, it makes you a human."

Before Cameroonians Begin to Die in MA60 Planes, Here’s Their Broken Record

The MA60 Chinese aircrafts have been described as flying coffins
The MA60 Chinese aircrafts have been described as flying coffins


 Washington DC – Cameroon aviation authourities have said they are deploying China’s made MA60 aircrafts for local flights in the country. Despite out pouring of criticism, not just on the exorbitant cost of the planes but more so, on their safety track record, the administration last week made a test flight of them and is on schedule to begin using them for regional air transportation. The SOURCE found out that the safety record of these planes is abysmal and we urge Cameroon aviation authorities to reconsider the deployment of these planes for transportation before they begin killing Cameroonians.
Accidents and incidents
As of May 11, 2015, there have been 13 accidents involving the MA60. One accident was fatal (MZ8968) resulting in 21 passengers and 4 crew members deaths. This prompted New Zealand gov’t to go as far as suspending tourism aid to Tonga and warned tourists about flying the aircraft which had been gifted to the country.
On 11 January 2009, one of the MA60 planes operated by Philippine carrier Zest Airways, crashed at Caticlan Airport when it landed too short on the runway, skidded out of control and crashed into a concrete barrier. The aircraft caught fire and suffered extensive damage to its wing, landing gear, undercarriage and one engine. Several passengers were injured.
In June same year, another MA60 operated by Zest overshot the runway while trying to land at Caticlan airport. As a consequence of this accident a lengthening of the runway and the flattening of a hill that obstructed one of its approaches was carried out.
On May 7, 2011,  Merpati Nusantara Airlines Flight 8968 (with Indonesian registration PK-MZK) went into sea only 500 metres from the runway in bad weather with poor visibility on visual approach to Kaimana Airport, Kaimana, West Papua in Indonesia. It had left Sorong Airport with 19 passengers and 6 crew members on board. All passengers and crew were killed, making this the first reported fatal accident for the Chinese MA60. However, on 24 August 2011 Indonesia’s Transportation Minister determined human error was to blame for the disaster.
On 9 January 2012 a TAM flight from Riberalta Airport to Guayaramerín Airport, Bolivia operated by FAB-96 landed with the undercarriage not deployed due to a mechanical fault, resulting in substantial damage to the aircraft. There were no injuries amongst the five crew and sixteen passengers.
On 16 May 2013 a Myanma Airways flight from Heho Airport to Monghsat Airport in Burma, overran the runway on landing, resulting in two serious injuries and substantial damage to the aircraft. The MA60 allegedly suffered a brakes failure.
On 10 June 2013 Merpati Nusantara Airlines flight MZ6517 (with Indonesian registration PK-MZO) from Bajawa to Kupang, with 50 people on-board landed hard at Kupang airport in East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia. Two passengers were injured. The plane, which has been damaged beyond repair, lay on its belly on the runway with its engines jammed face down into the tarmac and its wings bent forward which one would expect after such a hard landing.
On 10 June 2013 Myanma Airways flight UB309 from Mawlamyine, Myanmar carrying four crew members and 60 passengers swerved off the runway upon landing at Kawthaung. The plane came to a stop in bushes about 200 feet to the west of the runway, with smoke coming from the left side propeller housing and the propellers on both wings damaged. There were no injuries. It is possible the captain was too early in switching the nosewheel steering to the ‘taxi’ mode during the landing roll and lost directional control. A similar incident occurred in December 2011.
On 4 February 2014 Joy Air flight JR1533 from Taiyuan, China carrying 7 crew members and 37 passengers, had a mechanical failure on the landing gear while landing at Zhengzhou. This caused landing gear to break and the aircraft’s nose cone hit the tarmac. There were no injuries.
On 10 May 2015, Joy Air flight JR1529 from Yiwu to Fuzhou with 45 passengers and 7 crew, landed on Fuzhou runway 03 at about 11:57L (03:57Z) but veered right off the runway and came to a stop right off the runway edge about 500 meters past the runway threshold and about 50 meters off the runway centerline with all gear on soft ground. The engines made ground contact causing the wings to be nearly torn off and substantial damage to the fuselage and structure. 7 occupants received injuries in the accident.
Operational Problems
The New Zealand Government suspended its programme of development aid to Tonga’s tourism industry in July 2013 after the MA60 donated by the Chinese Government was delivered to the airline Real Tonga. In August 2013 the New Zealand Government also issued a statement advising tourists to not travel on Real Tonga’s MA60 on the grounds that “this aircraft has been involved in a significant number of accidents in the last few years”, and the type “is not certified to fly in New Zealand or other comparable jurisdictions.”

Real Tonga ceased operating the MA60 in early 2015 after the Tongan Government passed legislation adopting New Zealand’s civil aviation regulations. A proposal to re-establish Royal Tongan Airlines to operate the MA60 was reported later in the year.

'I will never quit Man U, your claims are outrageous'- coach Louis Van Gaal blasts media


Man U coach Louis van Gaal has insisted that he will not resign despite the huge pressure he is facing in his second year as the coach of Britain's biggest and most successful club. The Dutch man lost at home last week to Southampton and his style of play has infuriated fans with many calling for him to be sacked and replaced with either Ryan Giggs, Pep Guardiola or Jose Mourinho.

Van Gaal labelled the stories suggesting he had to be persuaded to stay as "awful and horrible" on Thursday's press conference ahead of the F.A cup clash with Derby County. Asked about the claims he offered to walk away from the job, Van Gaal told reporters:
"I have not mentioned that, ever. I am always fighting. I have signed a three-year contract here. It's a process, not one game, and I want to continue until the end. When I'm not willing to do that, I don't think I would have started here one-and-a-half years ago. When I have signed for clubs, I have always spoken a long time with the CEO or with the owners, not only at United, but also at Bayern Munich and Barcelona, and I have the faith that they always support me. But that gives more pressure to you, because you must fulfil the expectations they have of you. Of course we can fulfil those expectations. We are now only halfway. I cannot lose any more, because then I am condemned for the fourth time that I have been sacked."
Manchester United is fifth in the Premier League. They are out of the Champions League and the League Cup.
