THIS just might explain why everyone’s obsessed with true crime stories these days: Coltan Scrivner, a research scientist at Recreational Fear Lab — and an expert in “morbid curiosity”, says that watching true crime shows may help prepare you if you find yourself in a similar situation. He says there’s an almost primal reason people are endlessly fascinated by the subject. In fact, our interest in finding out more about dangerous people likely began when humans began using language – and started using proactive aggression to protect themselves. According to him, true crime stories “can have a learning component…or at least a perceived learning component. We feel like we’re more prepared in these kinds of situations.”

It was a Marky Markdown. Mark Wahlberg has sold his Beverly Hills mansion for $55 million — $32.5 million less than its initial listing of $87.5 million last April. The sprawling 30,500-square-foot home features 12 bedrooms and 20 bathrooms on 6 acres in an exclusive gated community. The “Ted” star took the property off the market in October before re-listing it in November at $79.5 million. The buyer has not been identified. Wahlberg purchased the land in 2009 for a measly $8.25 million, putting in at least 5 years of renovation efforts. He and his family have relocated to the Las Vegas area.

The haunting theme song of “The White Lotus,” which has become an unexpected viral sensation in night clubs, now has an official dance remix. Friday, Dutch DJ Tiësto dropped his EDM remix of ‘Renaissance’, the theme song of HBO’s hit show, on digital and streaming platforms.

Is there anything he CAN’T do? The Terry Fox Foundation has announced that Ryan Reynolds has designed the official shirt for this year’s Terry Fox run, honoring one of Canada’s most inspirational figures – and the response has been “overwhelming.” Reynolds posted a photo of himself wearing the shirt and alluding to his involvement with this year’s fundraiser for cancer research, writing: “I’ve been taking part in the Terry Fox Run since second grade and can’t think of a more enduring and lovely legacy for one person.” After a flood of people asked how they could get the shirt themselves, the charity announced that Reynolds’ design will be available to registrants for the annual run on April 12 – the 43rd anniversary of the start of the Marathon of Hope.

Elvis is the king — of making foster cats feel purrfectly at home. Nine years ago, Beverly Pack, a volunteer with Open Arms Animal Shelter in Louisa KY, took in Elvis, his sister Priscilla, and other kittens in their litter. When she learned that Elvis and Priscilla both have cerebellar hypoplasia, also known as “wobbly cat syndrome,” she decided to adopt them. This condition affects their balance and motor skills, but it doesn’t stop Elvis from fully embracing every new foster kitten that comes to their house. Since 2013, Pack has taken in over 100 fosters, and Elvis “insists” he be allowed to “groom and bathe” each one. He follows his new friends around during the day, then “snuggles with them at bedtime.” This attention helps the kittens with their socialization, making it easier for them to get adopted. And Elvis’ kindness has been rewarded — he was recently named a winner of Arm & Hammer’s Feline Generous Happily Furever After contest, and a donation was made to the animal shelter.

A woman who shares her name with the tech devices ‘Alexa’ and ‘Siri’ says she constantly sets them off during online meetings when clients say her name. 27-year-old Alexa Seary of Philadelphia, (whose surname is pronounced ‘Siri’), says her Amazon Echo and Apple products constantly go off during online meetings when her name is announced. She has been the butt of many jokes since Apple introduced its personal assistant function, Siri, in 2011. Imagine her shock when Amazon released its own assistant device, the Amazon Echo in 2014, named Alexa. But obviously it’s not TOO much of a concern for her. She plans to keep her last name when she gets married.

AVOID THESE PERILOUS PIERCINGS:

Professional piercer Marie took to TikTok to reveal the 4 piercings that she warns her clients to avoid. Her video has been viewed more than 9 million times…

1. “Smiley”: That’s the fleshy flap of skin that connects your upper lip to your gum — and usually peeks out only when the pierced person smiles. Gums can be damaged if the ring isn’t placed correctly. And the metal can damage tooth enamel. Infection is also a risk, due to food residue.

2. Back dermals: This refers to piercings placed just above the hip on either side of the spine. Risks include infection, tissue damage and scarring.

3. Nape/neck: These can also be problematic, with a higher chance of rejection by the site, plus the chance of excessive swelling.

4. Dimple piercings: Placed squarely on either side of the face below the cheekbone, these are “hard to heal” because they’re in a high movement area, and when eating, there’s also a chance you could “bite down on that bar and break your teeth.” LINK: https://tinyurl.com/2p9drj7e

A Canadian study has found that smoking weed is more harmful than smoking tobacco. Researchers from University of Ottawa and The Ottawa Hospital evaluated chest scans of marijuana smokers, non-smokers and tobacco-only smokers over age 50. They determined that 75% of cannabis smokers had emphysema — compared to 67% of heavy tobacco smokers and just 5% of non-smokers. The scientists say that “may be due to the…fact that marijuana smoke enters the lungs unfiltered.”

Alec Baldwin’s “Rust” is officially set to resume production this spring, over a year after cinematographer Halyna Hutchins was killed in an on-set shooting. Rust Movie Productions said in a press release that director Joel Souza, who was injured in the shooting, is among at least 4 original crew members who will return to complete the film. Hutchins’ widower Matthew will serve as an executive producer. And cinematographer Bianca Cline will work in Hutchins’ place and donate her salary to charity in her name.

The series, to be directed by Gavin O’Connor, with the involvement of Tom Brady’s 199 Productions, will chronicle the life and career of the NFL icon and his rise from humble beginnings to leave an indelible mark on football, broadcasting, video games, and pop culture. Brady’s presence as Executive Producer was particularly important to Madden’s family as they committed to the project.

Emmy nominated and iconic actress, Dee Wallace, portrays Ms Jay in the re-enactments. Jay’s input with the main character, Paul T. Goldman was instrumental in his decision-making and actions surrounding his sham marriage.

If you could make one change in your life to make yourself happier — your income, your job, your relationships, your health, whatever — what would make the biggest difference? Harvard psychiatrist Dr. Robert Waldinger is the director of “the world’s longest-running scientific study of happiness,” and he might have the answer you’re looking for. The Harvard Study of Adult Development, began in 1938 with 724 participants, and set out to discover what makes people thrive. 85 years later, the study includes 3 generations and more than 1,300 descendants of the original participants. In his book “The Good Life: Lessons from the World’s Longest Scientific Study of Happiness”, Waldinger lists what the healthiest and happiest study participants had most in common. And one factor stands out above everything else: Good relationships. And that doesn’t necessarily mean with a romantic partner. It means that cultivating warm relationships lowers your stress levels, and keeps you healthier and happier. Other factors that keep people happy include cultivating kindness (those who reported higher levels of agreeableness and emotional stability also reported greater relationship happiness), volunteering, learning to apologize, expressing your love, being willing to be vulnerable, and continuing to learn and grow.

A mermaid "documentary" once fooled so many people that the U.S. government had to issue a statement. In 2013, Animal Planet aired Mermaids: The New Evidence, a documentary—or rather, a mockumentary—that "proved" the half-human-half-fish beings exist. And while the program was fake, plenty of the 3.6 million viewers that watched believed that the fictional claims were real. In fact, so many people were fooled that the U.S. government's National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration released a statement on its website addressing the confusion, saying: "Mermaids: The New Evidence is just entertainment. No evidence of aquatic humanoids has ever been found."

Elizabeth Banks isn’t ashamed of her past work. As director, she was behind beloved audience favorites like “Pitch Perfect 2”, but also worked on 2019’s “Charlies’ Angels”, which IS universally considered a failure. Banks, who also produced, wrote, and starred in the film, accepted its performance with grace, tweeting at the time, “if you’re going to have a flop, make sure your name is on it at least 4x.” While promoting her new project, “Cocaine Bear” (out Feb. 24), Banks said she “took full responsibility for Charlie’s Angels”, and the new dark comedy is also “a ginormous risk,” even joking it “could be a career ender for me.”

Netflix is setting the record straight about its password sharing restrictions. Amid recent reports regarding the eventual introduction of anti-password-sharing measures in the US, the company has stated that limitations regarding account sharing began rolling out in Canada, New Zealand, Portugal, and Spain on Feb. 8.

Uber has added a new audio recording function to its app in Canada, which it says is an optional safety feature. Uber users can turn on audio recording in the Safety Toolkit section of the app. From there, they’ll have the option to record audio during a trip by tapping the blue shield icon. Both riders and drivers can use the feature at any point during a ride. Recording automatically stops shortly after the ride ends, or users can start and stop it themselves. The company said it hopes the feature “will help give riders and drivers peace of mind by encouraging comfortable and positive interactions while on trips.”

THE WORLD’S HIGHEST-PAID ENTERTAINERS IN 2022:

It wasn’t a great year for movie stars, but it was for performers who are considered a “sure thing”. Here is Forbes’ list of the rich and famous who got even MORE rich and famous last year…

1. Genesis — $230 million: Not only did they tour for the first time in years, the prog-rock pioneers topped 2022 with a $300 million music rights sale.

2. Sting — $210m: The former Police-man pocketed $300 million by selling his entire musical output, both solo and with The Police.

3. Tyler Perry — $175m: The actor-director-writer-studio mogul is the only billionaire on the list. That’s partly thanks to income streams from film, his BET TV shows and his sprawling production backlot.

4. Trey Parker & Matt Stone — $160m: The devilish duo behind “South Park” not only made a ton from “Book of Mormon”, they also signed a deal with Paramount to the tune of $935 million over 6 years.

5. James L. Brooks & Matt Groening — $105m: “The Simpsons” co-creators made a mint as a result of the yellow cartoon family’s move to Disney+ from FX in 2019 (all 30 seasons…!)

6. Brad Pitt — $100m: He sold his Plan B production company for about $113m. Plus we hear he did some acting on the side… (“Bullet Train”, “Babylon”, “The Lost City”…)

7. Rolling Stones — $98m: Their tour grossed $136m. Plus there are record royalties and stuff. (And one less band member to share the cash with. What? Too soon?)

8. James Cameron — $95m: “Avatar: The Way of Water” made him the director of 3 of the highest-grossing movies of all time, alongside the first “Avatar” and “Titanic”. (Pretty sure he’ll have a lucrative 2023, as well!)

9. Taylor Swift — $92m: The top lady on the list. Her “Midnights” album was definitely successful, making her the first performer ever to nab the top 10 slots in Billboard’s Hot 100. But about 70% of her bucks came from her earlier library, including sales and streaming.

10. Bad Bunny — $88m: The Puerto Rican rapper embarked on 2 tours, and appeared alongside Brad Pitt in “Bullet Train”. Endorsement deals with Corona, Cheetos and Adidas didn’t hurt, either.

Today we visit with actor and singer Tom Wopat. It's been several decades since the General Lee first left the ground, sky-rocketing Tom Wopat and co-star John Schneider to instant Dukes of Hazzard stardom. In the 43 years since, Wopat has been blessed with a multifaceted career that has ranged from starring roles on Broadway, various television appearances, singing in such venues as The Ol' Opera, Carnegie Hall, and the Hollywood Bowl, to a featured role in Quentin Tarantino's Django Unchained. Most recently he has finished a new recording project, a CD entitled Simple Man, a 14 song collection and his 13th solo release. Also, on the horizon is the premiere of the second movie of his County Line trilogy, County Line: All In, for the Inspiration Network. The third film, County Line: No Fear is due in early 2023. Recently starring on the TV series, Blacklist, which features James Spader, Wopat quipped "I enjoy keeping a lot of balls in the air." Tom was a staple on the Broadway stage for 35 years, garnering a pair of Tony nominations along the way. Long known for his musical leading man abilities, Wopat also was critically acclaimed for his dramatic work in The Trip to Bountiful and Glengarry Glenn Ross. But currently it's his work in the studio and on the road with some of the most talented musicians in the world that has provided Tom the most satisfaction.

When you find yourself with too much month left at the end of your money, do you ask mom and dad to help? Apparently, a lot of us do. In a poll, more than 3 in 10 (35%) adults admit their parents help with at least one bill. The survey of 2,000 Americans found that the top 3 expenses that parents help their grown-up kids with are rent (19%), groceries (19%) and utilities (16%). The good news for mom and dad is that 70% of those respondents plan to take on these bills themselves within the next 2 years. On the other hand, 30% admit they’ll just keep on accepting their parents’ financial aid until they’re told otherwise. Half said they struggle to limit unnecessary spending. They also face difficulty budgeting for unexpected expenses (45%) and remembering to pay bills on time (40%).

There's a device that creates energy from snowfall. It's pretty darn impressive that scientists have been able to harness energy from the sun, wind, and water, providing us with all kinds of alternative sources of power. And now they've managed to create energy from snowfall. According to a 2019 study in the journal Nano Energy, engineers and chemists from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) have developed a device made of silicone that can harness a charge from static electricity. "Snow is positively charged and gives up electrons, while silicone is negatively charged and accepts the electrons," IFL Science explains. "So, as the snow lands on the silicone, a charge is produced and then captured." Think of it like the spark of energy you create when you rub a balloon against your hair.

One of the biggest knocks on electric vehicles (EVs) is the length of time it takes to charge them. Unlike a quick 5-minute stop to fill a gasoline-powered car, an EV battery can be plugged into a regular outlet at home all night – and still not be fully charged. But that that might be about to change. A team from the University of California says it has come up with an electric car battery that charges in one hour. It’s a long, technical explanation, so I won’t bore you with that, but the researchers say their fast-charging battery will be cheaper to produce, more powerful (allowing for vehicles with smaller batteries), and is more sustainable for the environment. Current EVs also require raw materials that are already facing supply chain issues.

It took him over a year, but the British man who became the first ever to recreate ‘Forrest Gump’s’ fictitious run across America from the 1994 movie — and his did it in full ‘Forrest’ costume — has written a book. In it, he tells how in 2016, the then-38-year-old (the same age as Tom Hanks when he portrayed the ‘Gump’ character) began his journey, which would take him through 43 states over 422 days as he crisscrossed the country 4 times, covering a total of 15,621 miles (25,140km). He also went through 33 pairs of running shoes. The experienced marathoner encountered blistering heat, torturous rain, and relentless snowfall, raising money for 2 charities along the way. He worked the Boston Marathon into his itinerary, came across moose, bears and dolphins, suffered a torn quadriceps muscle, and at one point paused his run to fly home for the birth of his daughter (squeezing in 3 marathons while home). When he finished his Forrest Gump run in Utah, his fiancée and baby daughter were there to greet him. That’s when Pope, wearing a Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. hat, dropped to one knee — “partly out tiredness but mostly out of tradition” — and asked Nadine to marry him. His book “Becoming Forrest – One Man’s Epic Run Across America” is out now. LINK: https://amzn.to/3kdV3qy
