• Shazam has shared a list of songs that people have asked the music-identification service to name the most in 2018 so far. 
• Pop stars like Ed Sheeran and Camila Cabello appear on the list alongside up-and-coming names like Anne-Marie and Alice Merton.

Over halfway through the year in music, Shazam has shared a list of the songs that its users have most frequently requested the service to identify in 2018 so far. 

The popularity of Ed Sheeran's multi-platinum album "÷," released in March 2017, has endured well into 2018, as the singer-songwriter's single "Perfect" topped Shazam's list at the midyear mark.

"Even though Ed's album '÷' is now more than a year old, the songs from it continue to be Shazamed in large numbers," Julian Marshall, Shazam's global head of content, said in a release. "With some big releases incoming from Drake, Nicki Minaj and Ariana Grande, and tracks like 'X' still in our Worldwide Top 10, it'll be interesting to see if he's still top of the charts at the end of the year."

The remainder of the list includes international pop stars like Camila Cabello and J. Balvin alongside up-and-coming names like Anne-Marie and Alice Merton. 

The company said that the five most "Shazamed" artists in the first half of the year were (in descending order): Ed Sheeran, J. Balvin, Drake, Dua Lipa, and Kendrick Lamar.

Here are the 10 songs people asked Shazam to identify the most in 2018 so far:

1. Ed Sheeran - “Perfect”
2. Nicky Jam & J. Balvin - “X”
3. Jax Jones Feat. Ina Wroldsen - “Breathe”
4. Alice Merton - “No Roots”
5. Marshmello & Anne-Marie - “Friends”
6. Rudimental Feat. Jess Glynne, Macklemore & Dan Caplen - “These Days”
7. Tom Walker - “Leave A Light On”
8. Camila Cabello - “Never Be The Same”
9. Portugal, The Man - “Feel It Still”
10. G-Eazy & Halsey - “Him & I”

NOW WATCH: 5 science facts that 'Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom' totally ignored

• I bought a one-way ticket to Switzerland to work as a goat-sitter after my grandmother’s death.
• Soon, I learned that sometimes the most spontaneous decisions we make turn out to be the best ones.
• As a result of that one-way ticket, I’ve been traveling the world as a digital nomad for more than 18 months.

In January 2017, I moved to Switzerland for a goat. Actually, two goats. My best friend, my grandma, had died a few months prior, and I needed to get away from big-city life — there were countless reminders of her at every turn.

When I saw a Facebook post about a woman needing a goat-sitter in the middle of the Swiss Alps, nothing but mountains and silence around, I was in. She wanted a "digital nomad," so that the person could work remotely between goat responsibilities. In exchange, she'd offer free housing. Since I was already remote writer, it was perfect.

When my grandma's heart stopped beating in 2016, it felt like mine did, too; I figured the goats would be the perfect antidote to my grief. In January 2017, I bought a one-way ticket to Switzerland, via Iceland — little did I know that it would change my life.  

As promised, the goat-sitting house was surrounded by the Swiss Alps and looked like a farmhouse version of a Barbie Dreamhouse. The snow-capped mountains were so beautiful, they looked like someone had drawn them into the flat landscape.

However, looks can be deceiving; it turned out that goat-sitting wasn’t as serene as advertised. The farmhouse was unheated and I lived in the attic — I felt like Cinderella. I spent a lot of time shoveling (the goats didn't like snow, and there was a lot of it). As a result,my carpal tunnel became so bad that I could barely type, let alone chop firewood — another thing I needed to do for work.

It also seemed that the goats needed a full-time nanny more than a sitter, and my main focus had to be my remote writing jobs. Plus, one goat loved ramming his horns into my thighs, leaving me with purple bruises as souvenirs.

I was supposed to keep the job for two or three months, but 12 days later, I retired from goat-sitting. However, I discovered one important thing: I didn’t need to goat-sit to sustain my digital nomad life. Instead, I decided to explore more cities in Switzerland, and then change countries every month or so. Along the way, I learned several lessons, including the following:

It's OK if plans change

Initially, I thought I'd return to LA after the goats, but I realized it was OK if my plans changed. Since my jobs were remote, I had the freedom to explore new cities, going to castles and churches by day and working in cafés and coworking spaces by night. Soon, I also starteda travel blog, Nomadic Natalia, about being a digital nomad.

I learned that getting out of my comfort zone is critical to growing as a person

The more I traveled and lived as a digital nomad, the more I did things out of my comfort zone, which helped me grow as a person. In Dubrovnik, Croatia, I went sea kayaking at sunset with a dozen other people, all strangers to me. It was windy and the water was choppy, and all kayak tours were cancelled — except for mine.

I looked at the rough waves and told my guide I'd go another day. "No," he said. "I have faith that you can brave the choppy water. You just have to get from one side to the other." He was right; the water was choppy, but the challenge of kayaking through it made the sunset at the end all the more worthwhile.

I learned that the best part of a new experience is the people

The best thing about moving a lot is all the different people you meet — they can make (or break) an experience. In Venice, Italy, I stayed in a convent(with a curfew!) right on the canals, befriended my nun housemates, and learned to live in silence.

On the island of Murano, Italy, I was reminded of the passion people put into their work when a jewelry designer taught me how to melt glass, and I ended up leaving his shop with a Murano glass flower necklace we'd both made.

In Bologna, Italy, I attended an impromptu tortellini-making class with a handful of female chefs who spoke no English, and I learned that cooking and camaraderie require no verbal communication.

San Francisco is dealing with the harsh reality of a homelessness crisis that's gone from bad to worse. In 2017, more than one in 100 homeless Americans lived on the city's streets.

Tired of feeling helpless, Jacob Savage and Neil Shah created an app called Concrn that lets people send an alert whenever they see a person experiencing a mental health crisis, homelessness, or an issue with substance abuse. The app's dispatcher sends a civilian response team trained in empathy to help get that person back on their feet and connect them with relevant support services.

We recently shadowed a Concrn responder on their shift. Here's what it was like.

On any day in San Francisco, you may see a person raving incoherently, shooting up drugs, or tumbling into the streets. You might inch past to avoid them or offer your pocket change.

If a bystander takes action, they might call the police, assuming these trained keepers of the law know how to best handle trauma in the streets. But that's not always the case.

Over a recent nine-year period, 58% of the city's police shootings involved mentally ill people.

Created in 2014, Concrn is a "mobile alternative to 911," according to the app's founders.

• An over-the-top property in the Bel Air neighborhood of Los Angeles was relisted for $188 million in April.
• It was originally listed for $250 million in January 2017.
• Luxury developer Bruce Makowsky, who calls himself the "spec king," developed the property.

In January 2017, a new home built on speculation in the Bel Air neighborhood of Los Angeles appeared on the market, asking an earth-shattering $250 million. According to its website, that made it the most expensive home ever listed in the United States.

Fast forward to April 2018, and that home has returned to the market with a reduced price. It's now listed by Hilton & Hyland for $188 million. It no longer boasts the title of most expensive on the market, but with a price that high, it is certainly up there.

And it really is unlike any other home on the market. The mansion is built in a contemporary style, with stark geometry and huge plate-glass windows.

The home also comes outfitted with furniture, but it's not your standard Restoration Hardware package. It seems it was built with a very specific person in mind: a person who likes decommissioned decorative helicopters, gigantic Leica camera sculptures, velvet-roped lounge areas, and plush decorations that were purchased from Hermès.

As for the living spaces, there are two master suites, 10 "oversized VIP" suites for guests, 21 bathrooms, three separate and fully equipped kitchens, and no fewer than five bars.

It was built by the luxury developer Bruce Makowsky, whom the release refers to as the "spec king." He was also the mastermind behind the $70 million Beverly Hills house sold to Minecraft founder Markus "Notch" Persson in 2014.

Take a look around:

The sheer footprint of the mansion, spread across 38,000 square feet, is a sight to behold. The exterior decks alone are 17,000 square feet. Downstairs is a car park filled with over $30 million worth of collectible automobiles — all of which are included in the purchase.

Situated on a hill, the house has a 270-degree view overlooking the LA area — one of its defining features.

Inside is where things get a little bit funky. The decor is not your typical boilerplate luxe style.

• In the film "Sorry to Bother You," a black telemarketer finds success only after he starts speaking in a "white voice."
• The movie is rooted in science — linguists have long known that minorities face discrimination based on the sound of their voice.
• One linguist tried responding to local apartment listings using three accents — white, black, and Latino — and was offered more appointments when the landlord thought he sounded white. 

In the upcoming movie "Sorry to Bother You," a black telemarketer named Cash can't finish a single call without getting hung up on.

But Cash's fortunes change after a colleague instructs him to start calling customers using his "white voice." Suddenly, by changing his accent to that of a white man, he achieves unheard-of levels of telemarketing success.

While "Sorry to Bother You" may be a comedy, its premise is rooted in science. Language experts have recognized for years that people face discrimination not just based on their race but the sound of their voice — especially when they sound like a minority.

John Baugh, a linguist at Washington University in St. Louis, was the first to document the "linguistic profiling" some minorities face over the phone. It started in the late 1980s when Baugh, who is black, said he was discriminated against while searching for apartments in Palo Alto, California, where he was living as a fellow at Stanford University. 

Baugh launched an experiment in which he made hundreds of phone calls to landlords who had listed apartments in the San Francisco area. He greeted each landlord with the same line: "Hello, I’m calling about the apartment you have advertised in the paper." But he didn't always say it in the same accent — he alternated between using an African-American accent, a Mexican-American accent, and his natural accent, what he called professional standard English.

He found that in white areas, landlords were far less responsive to him when he used his black or Latino accent. In one predominantly white community, landlords offered to show him the apartment 70% of the time when he used his standard-English voice, but less than 30% of the time when he spoke in a black or Latino dialect.

Baugh's research proved that racism extends further than just face-to-face interactions.

"For people who felt that they had been the victims of linguistic discrimination, they were happy to see it," he told Business Insider. "And it was the kind of affirmation of like, well, we knew this all along. We knew it. We just didn't know that it could be proved scientifically."

Can you really tell someone's race based on their voice?

Although language and ethnicity are closely intertwined, the notion that one can "sound white" or "sound black" has stirred controversy in the past. It came up in the OJ Simpson murder case, when Johnnie Cochran memorably argued that it was inherently racist to assume someone's race based on the sound of their voice.

But as Baugh explains, we make inferences from people's voices all the time. We can usually tell when a speaker is a man or a woman, for example, and we can get a sense if they're old or young. Guessing someone's race is the same thing.

"It's not necessarily racist to draw an inference about a person's race from their speech," Baugh told Business Insider. "What is potentially racist is if you act on that inference in a discriminatory way."

Although Baugh's research uncovered a harsh reality for minorities, he said it did little to wipe out housing discrimination for good. Instead, it simply motivated the real estate industry to change its tactics.

Minorities still face discrimination in the housing market, as the Urban Institute think tank has shown. But now, instead of rejecting them over the phone, Baugh said brokers will often go through the process of having them fill out applications and granting them appointments before ultimately rejecting them, making it harder to take legal action.

"One of the unintended consequences of the research was that for those that wanted to discriminate, they realized, 'Oh, I'd better be a little more sophisticated than just simply telling people no.'"

For Baugh, the issue goes far beyond fair housing — it cuts to the heart of the American identity.

"Many of the people who engage in linguistic profiling and linguistic discrimination are descendants of people that came from someplace where English is probably not spoken. And some of their ancestors at one point in time, whether they came from Italy, Germany, Vietnam, or the Philippines, were subject to a form of linguistic discrimination," Baugh said.

"Accepting others who speak different than you do can potentially be a step toward healing divisions in the country."

Russian president Vladimir Putin, 65, has tried to keep his personal life almost entirely out of the spotlight.

From his first marriage of 30 years to reports of a girlfriend, Putin and his administration have fought hard to prevent the media and the world from knowing much about him — aside from the carefully curated macho man on horseback, lifting weights and posing in shirtless photos.

He has specifically made a concerted effort to shield his children from any spotlight, prompting many to even question whether he has any kids at all.

Rumors have swirled for years that Putin has two daughters with his ex-wife, and that his reported girlfriend may have had another daughter in 2015.

Here is what we know about the mysterious lives of Putin's secret kids.

• Terry Crews testified on Tuesday to the Senate Judiciary Committee on the Sexual Assault Survivors' Bill of Rights.
• Crews discussed his allegations of sexual assault against a Hollywood agent.
• He also said he would not be in "Expendables 4" due to retaliation for speaking out.
• The actor claimed the movie's producer, Avi Lerner, said if he didn't drop his case he would not be in the movie.

On Tuesday, actor Terry Crews was in Washington D.C. testifying at a hearing by the Senate Judiciary Committee on the Sexual Assault Survivors' Bill of Rights. 

Crews recounted his alleged sexual assault by a Hollywood agent via Twitter last year, which grabbed headlines all over the world as it was at the height of the #MeToo movement. It was later revealed that the agent was Adam Venit, head of the motion picture department at the talent agency William Morris Endeavor.

“The assault lasted only minutes, but what he was effectively telling me while he held my genitals in his hand was that he held the power. That he was in control,” Crews told the committee, according to Variety.

"As I shared my story, I was told over and over that this was not abuse," Crews said. "This was just a joke. This was just horseplay. But I can say one man’s horseplay is another man’s humiliation. And I chose to tell my story and share my experience to stand in solidarity with millions of other survivors around the world. That I know how hard it is to come forward, I know the shame associated with the assault. It happened to me."

The Los Angeles County District Attorney's office declined to prosecute Venit following Crews filing a report alleging the agent sexually assaulted him. WME gave Venit a one-month suspension and he was demoted.

Crews also told the committee that he'd suffered retaliation for coming forward about Venit.  He said that "Expendables 4" producer Avi Lerner made sure he would not be in the movie (Crews starred in the last three movies in the franchise).

Crews claimed Lerner “called my manager and asked him to drop my case in order for me to be in the fourth installment of the movie, and if I didn’t there would be trouble.” 

Crews also pointed out to the committee that Lerner was dealing with his own sexual harassment accusation and said that "abusers protect abusers," according to Deadline. A former executive of Lerner's Millennium Films filed a harassment suit last year. Lerner previously said the suit was "all lies."

Business Insider contacted Lerner for comment but did not receive a response.

• President Donald Trump has now twice advocated bypassing immigrants' and asylum-seekers' due-process rights that have been long established in the US legal system.
• The US Constitution and Supreme Court decisions set the framework of these rights, afforded to anyone on US soil.

President Donald Trump has now twice advocated to strip immigrants and asylum-seekers of their due-process rights that have been long established in the US legal system.

Trump, first in a tweet on Sunday, then at a rally on Monday, said the US should send those who "invade our Country" away without affording them their previously established right to access "Judges or Court Cases" after they arrive at the US-Mexico border.

But doing so would violate the long-held guarantee of a right to due process that multiple US laws and court rulings have decided immigrants and asylum-seekers have when they set foot on American soil.

The US Constitution's Fifth Amendment guarantees in what's known as the "Due Process Clause" that no one can be "deprived of life, liberty or property without due process of law." In 1953, the Supreme Court clarified this right extended to non-US citizens.

In 2001, the Supreme Court doubled down in Zadvydas v. Davis, concluding: "the Due Process Clause applies to all persons within the United States, including aliens, whether their presence is lawful, unlawful, temporary, or permanent."

Due process is generally the guarantee of an individual's right to exercise their granted access to a court and stated legal rights to seek a judge's opinion. Without due process, there's no way to determine if an immigrant is being rightfully deported.

How the due process system for immigrants and asylum seekers works

Due process for immigrants is a pared-down version of the framework of rights in place for a US citizen to defend their rights against the US legal system.

When border patrol arrests a migrant after they cross the border illegally, past Supreme Court decisions have decided that they are afforded the right to due process once they enter the US legal system as they're being considered for deportation.

Immigrants who are apprehended can fight deportation by presenting their cases in hearings before Justice Department-affiliated immigration judges and courts, including when they are seeking to claim asylum.

Asylum is a protected status and a foundation for eventual legal citizenship for those who can't return to their home country because it's unsafe. International law recognizes asylum, and US law further defines it.

Though immigrants do not have the right to a state-provided lawyer, they can hire representation or seek pro-bono legal service to present their testimony and evidence to an immigration judge.

If they lose their case and are given deportation orders, they have the option to appeal to the Board of Immigration Appeals, an arm of the Justice Department. If the appeals board agrees with the original decision to deport, defendants can challenge those rulings in front of a federal court.

But significant backlog makes this a very long process — there were more than 700,000 backlogged cases as of May 2018. Of these cases, the average wait time to have a judge hear it was more than 700 days.

If immigrants are not "refugees, asylees, or asylum seekers", a 1996 case allows the government to skip this process and instead pursue expedited removal. In these cases, the immigration officer has broad authority and basically serves as the prosecutor and the judge.

The Trump administration's thoughts

The Trump administration has recently issued several statements that conflict with the longstanding rights, rules, and systems that are in place specifically for immigrants.

Trump doubled down on his tweet condemning "Judges and Court Cases" on Monday night when he again called for overhauling the immigration system at a rally in South Carolina.

Despite saying "we want people to come in through the legal process", Trump said he balked at proposals to install judges at the border.

In a claim that seems to be exaggerated based on previous reports, Trump said someone came to him "three days ago" requesting an additional 5,000 judges "on the border." Sen. Ted Cruz and Rep. Dave Brat, both Republicans, proposed adding 374 immigration judges to the Department of Justice's current 335 immigration judges, RollCall reported.

At the rally Monday night, Trump then asked, "What other country has judges?"

The Washington Post fact-checked Trump's claim and found comparable officers exist in 13 other countries.

"I don't want judges," he continued. "I want ICE and border patrol agents."

The White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders addressed three separate questions about Trump's remarks in Monday's press briefing.

"It makes no sense that an illegal alien sets one foot on American soil and then they would go through a 3-5 year judicial process," Sanders said, adding, "Just because you don't see a judge doesn't mean you aren't receiving due process."

A second reporter pushed her on the "no judges" tweet and she doubled down, dodging to instead point out the president would like to wholly fix immigration.

"Nothing is actually going to change; he's just complaining about the process as it stands now?" a reporter asked.

Sanders replied, "Things that we have the ability to do that administratively we are working to do, but again Congress is the only one that has the ability to write law, and we hope they'll do that."

The most expensive listed Bay Area home within the last decade is currently for sale for nearly $100 million, with extensive and plentiful amenities to match.

Originally reported by The Wall Street Journal, the 32,000-square-foot home at 610 Los Trancos Rd in Palo Alto, Calif., belongs to Scott McNealy, who co-founded the computer company Sun Microsystems before Oracle bought it in 2010 for $7.4 billion. 

He purchased the first part of the home's 13-acre lot in the mid-1980s before having the gargantuan home built in 2008. He, his wife and their four sons have lived there ever since, but now that the parents are empty nesters, “the house deserves more activity," McNealy told The Wall Street Journal.

The monumental home is nothing short of extravagant, as reflected in its $96.8 million price tag.

At nearly $100 million, it's the most expensive home listed in the Bay Area in the last ten years, according to a spokesperson for the realtor. If it sells for above $47.5 million, the price of a Belvedere, Calif., mansion sold in August of 2015, it will officially be the most expensive Bay Area home sold in the last decade.

The home boasts 20 rooms, two fireplaces and a pool — and that's just scratching the surface.

Homeowners and guests enter the home through an entryway.

As the year flies by, the list of canceled TV shows piles up.

Networks have been cutting more and more shows since May, including Fox which canceled comedies "The Mick," "Brooklyn Nine-Nine," and "The Last Man on Earth." "Nine-Nine" will continue on NBC, though.

ABC also canceled the previously renewed "Roseanne" revival in late May, after Roseanne Barr posted a racist tweet about former Obama adviser Valerie Jarrett. However, ABC announced a spin-off called "The Conners" without Barr coming this fall.

Amazon kicked off the year with a slew of cancellations, announcing the end of three quirky comedies, including the Golden Globe nominee "I Love Dick" and the comedian Tig Notaro's semi-autobiographical show, "One Mississippi." It canceled Golden Globe nominee "Mozart in the Jungle" in April, after four seasons, and recently canceled "Transparent," which will end after the upcoming fifth season.

The long-running "The Jerry Springer Show" is ending after 27 seasons and 4,000 episodes. NBC's "Timeless," was also canceled for the second year in a row. NBC reversed its first decision to cancel the show last year after fan outcry. However, fans may have a movie to look forward to that gives the series a proper finale, though no official decision has been made.

There are many more cancellations to come, as networks announce the fate of newer shows as well as older ones.

We'll update this list as more are announced.

Here are all the shows that have been canceled this year, including those from networks and Netflix:

When Disney River Country opened in 1976, visitors flocked to Orange County, Florida, to ride the winding slides and traverse the wooden bridges.

The park closed down 25 years later, and today, it lies abandoned.

In 2016, A Cleveland-based photographer who works under the pseudonym Seph Lawless documented ghostly portraits of the once busy attraction in his photo series "Dismaland." (This is also the name of Banksy's 2015 art exhibition, a fake apocalyptic theme park near Bristol, England.)

But River Country will not stay abandoned for much longer. Disney is planning to demolish the decaying park and turn it into a timeshare resort and hotel, GrowthSpotter reports.

• An asylum-seeker named José spoke with Business Insider about his journey to the United States, and how he had feared being separated from his young son.
• Like many other migrants, the pair traveled north from Honduras to the US-Mexico border, where Border Patrol arrested them.
• José says God answered his prayers and kept him with his son, and that he feels welcome in America.

MCALLEN, TEXAS — As José and his young son made their way to the United States last week from their home country of Honduras, they prayed to God that the rumored family separations at the border wouldn't happen to them.

"God, I ask you to keep me with my child, I ask that you keep in mind that I am traveling for safety and that you allow it to continue to be so," José recalled saying.

Fresh from a shower and a hot meal at the Catholic Charities respite center in McAllen, Texas, he sat with his arms clasped around his son.

José, who asked to be identified only by his first name, told Business Insider through a translator that he had been warned in advance it was possible immigration authorities would take his child from him at the border, but he knew there was no other option.

He and his little boy couldn't return to Honduras, so he put the matter in God's hands.

"By the time I arrived, Donald Trump had a change of heart and decided to allow children to continue to stay with their parents, so I was able to stay with my child," José said.

That "change of heart" José spoke of came in the form of an executive order Trump signed last Wednesday, which halted his administration's practice of splitting up families that had illegally crossed the US-Mexico border.

Under the Trump administration's "zero tolerance" policy, more than 2,300 children were separated from their parents, funneled into the Health and Human Services' shelter system and flown to states across the country. Meanwhile, their parents remained in immigration detention, and in some cases were deported back to their home countries without their kids.

But José didn't know the ins and outs of the Trump administration's border policy when he and his son fled their country, traveling by bus, truck, and boat for six days to reach Texas.

He only knew that Honduras wasn't safe. He had previously stumbled across opportunities to move to the US, but chose to stay in Honduras until recently, when it became "unbearable."

Three of José's brothers were killed, and he had even received threats from the police, he said. He felt he had no choice but to take his son and go.

'I've felt welcome'

Nathaly Arriola, who works at the Catholic Charities center, said José's story is a common one.

Now that he's in the US, he, like so many other asylum-seekers, will wait potentially years for their cases to wind their way through a backlogged immigration court system.

"A lot of them will have a difficult path forward. But their stories, where they're coming from, and their realities is what I hope will allow them to stay in this country with the protections they deserve, as the law indicates," Arriola said. "The [Trump] administration at the moment, unlike any other administration, has been extremely unfriendly, and frankly does not align with the values that America is all about."

In hindsight, José says he made the right decision to flee. Against all odds, he and his son remain together, and he said they have been treated well by everyone so far.

Even the Border Patrol agents who arrested him were kind and made his son feel safe, he said. They spent three days inside an ice-cold holding facility commonly known by migrants as "hieleras," Spanish for "icebox." They came to the respite center on Sunday.

"I am surprised by the treatment I got in the center, and the treatment I've gotten in this country," he said. "My son has been taken care of, I've felt welcome. At the center, I've been fed, I've been given vitamins and medicine. I'm just thankful to be here in America."

• 50 Cent mocked Terry Crews in a now-deleted Instagram post following Crews' testimony to the Senate Judiciary Committee on his alleged sexual assault by a Hollywood agent.
• The post included an image of Crews shirtless with the words, "I got raped. My wife just watched."

Rapper 50 Cent mocked actor Terry Crews in an Instagram post following the latter's testimony to the Senate Judiciary Committee on the Sexual Assault Survivors' Bill of Rights on Tuesday.

In his testimony, Crews recounted his alleged sexual assault by the Hollywood agent Adam Venit, who was the head of the motion picture department at the talent agency William Morris Endeavor.

"As I shared my story, I was told over and over that this was not abuse," Crews said. "This was just a joke. This was just horseplay. But I can say one man's horseplay is another man's humiliation. And I chose to tell my story and share my experience to stand in solidarity with millions of other survivors around the world. That I know how hard it is to come forward, I know the shame associated with the assault. It happened to me."

50 Cent, whose real name is Curtis Jackson, has since deleted his post mocking Crews. As Deadline reported, Jackson's post included an image of Crews shirtless with the words, "I got raped. My wife just watched." A second image featured Crews with a rose in his mouth and the words, "Gym time."

Jackson's caption to the post went further in mocking Crews' testimony. It read, "LOL, What the f--- is going on out here man? Terry: I froze in fear. they would have had to take me to jail. get the strap."

Jackson's Starz series "Power," which he executive produces and stars in, premieres its fifth season on Sunday. 

Deadline notes that Jackson has a history of making controversial posts and deleting them around the release of major projects. In January, he posted and later deleted a video speaking out against the cable company Altice USA for removing "Power" from its Starz lineup, which Deadline reports corresponded with the release of Jackson's movie "Den of Thieves."

NOW WATCH: 5 science facts that 'Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom' totally ignored

• Former NASA Astronaut Buzz Aldrin, the second man to step foot on the moon, is embroiled in a legal battle with his children.
• They are feuding over control of Aldrin's finances, as well as his company Buzz Aldrin Enterprises and his non-profit ShareSpace Foundation. 
• Aldrin's lawyer alleges that his kids are taking advantage of the 88-year-old, but his family says his mental health is in decline and he's confused.

The first person to press his boot into the soft, grey regolith on the moon's surface in July 1969 was Neil Armstrong. Nine minutes later, Buzz Aldrin touched down.

The second man to walk on the moon, 88-year-old Aldrin, is now embroiled in a battle with his family over control of his finances and the future of his namesake businesses. 

On Friday, Ars Technica reported that the astronaut was suing his kids.

Aldrin's taking aim at his son Andrew, his daughter Janice, and his former business manager Christina Korp. He's arguing that they're taking advantage of the former astronaut by stealing money and slandering his good name, saying he has dementia. Aldrin also alleges his family prevented him from getting married for a fourth time, as the BBC reported.

On Tuesday, Aldrin's kids issued a statement saying they were saddened by the suit, and felt it was "unjustifiable." 

Aldrin's bitter personal battle hinges on his mental health

Dementia experts say it can be tough to diagnose dementia, and no single test can prove it conclusively. Doctors typically use a mix of tests, which can include brain scans, blood tests, as well as cognitive tasks like memory tests and trivia questions — sometimes even asking a patient to prepare toast — to assess whether their memory and problem solving skills are intact.

Alzheimer's is now the sixth leading cause of death in the US, according to the Alzheimer's Association, but there are promising signs that dementia rates in Americans over 65 are slowing: from 2000 to 2012 the dementia rate for those older adults in the US decreased significantly, from 11.6% to 8.8%, according to a JAMA study of more than 21,000 adults. 

In April, a voluntary mental evaluation Aldrin took at UCLA turned up clean, according to the Journal. Dr. James Spar concluded that Aldrin is "cognitively intact and retains all forms of decisional capacity."  

Aldrin's kids say that isn't so.

"We love and respect our father very much and remain hopeful that we can rise above this situation and recover the strong relationship that built this foundation in the first place," the statement from Janice and Andrew Aldrin read.

Aldrin is set to undergo a competency exam this week, administered by court-appointed mental health experts in Florida, the Journal reports.

'I'm talking about Mars for permanence'

In an interview Aldrin gave right before the suit went public last week, the former astronaut, engineer, and Air Force pilot laid out his vision for how Earthlings might one day soon colonize Mars. 

To that end, Aldrin created a special research institute at the Florida Institute of Technology in 2015, tasked with figuring out the many kinks of living on Mars.

"I'm talking about Mars for permanence," Aldrin told Business Insider on Thursday. "You go prepared to stay."

NOW WATCH: People on Twitter are loving how baffled Buzz Aldrin appeared by Trump's 'space' talk

Quentin Tarantino announced earlier this year that Brad Pitt and Leonardo DiCaprio would be starring in his upcoming ninth film, "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood," which partly involves the Manson Family murders.

In April, Tarantino and DiCaprio teased a few details about the film at the Las Vegas industry event CinemaCon, and Margot Robbie confirmed to IndieWire that she was playing the role of actor Sharon Tate in the film.

Since then, a strong supporting cast has steadily filled in. A source close to the production told IndieWire earlier this month that Damian Lewis, Dakota Fanning, and Emile Hirsch will appear in the film. Deadline also reported that Al Pacino has also joined the cast.

Pitt worked with Tarantino on 2009's "Inglorious Basterds," and DiCaprio appeared in 2013's "Django Unchained." Longtime Tarantino collaborators Tim Roth and Michael Madsen are also appearing in the film. 

"Once Upon a Time in Hollywood" is set for release August 9, 2019.

Here's everything we know about Tarantino's upcoming ninth film:

The film takes place in "Los Angeles in 1969, at the height of hippy Hollywood."

Tarantino described "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood" in a statement in February, calling it, "a story that takes place in Los Angeles in 1969, at the height of hippy Hollywood. The two lead characters are Rick Dalton (Leonardo DiCaprio), former star of a Western TV series, and his longtime stunt double Cliff Booth (Brad Pitt). Both are struggling to make it in a Hollywood they don't recognize anymore. But Rick has a very famous next-door neighbor ... Sharon Tate."

In July 2017, early reports of the film described its script as focused on the murder of actress Sharon Tate by Charles Manson's followers.

While Tarantino's February statement mentions Sharon Tate as a player in the movie, Tarantino previously said that the film would not center on Manson but on the year 1969.

At CinemaCon in April, Tarantino did not add much to the description of the plot, calling the project "very hush-hush and top secret."

It has been five years in the making.

Tarantino said in April that he had been working on the script for the film for half a decade.

"I've been working on this script for five years, as well as living in Los Angeles County most of my life, including in 1969, when I was 7 years old," he said. "I'm very excited to tell this story of an LA and a Hollywood that don't exist anymore. And I couldn't be happier about the dynamic teaming of DiCaprio and Pitt as Rick and Cliff."

It's a "'Pulp Fiction'-esque movie."

Deadline reported in January that DiCaprio would play an "aging actor" in a "'Pulp Fiction'-esque movie." "Pulp Fiction," Tarantino's 1994 classic, told a collection of interconnected stories.

At CinemaCon in April, Tarantino confirmed this sentiment by saying that "Once Upon A Time In Hollywood" is "probably the closest to 'Pulp Fiction' that I have done."

A man was arrested on Tuesday at the Hartsfield-Jackson International airport for running on the tarmac and jumping on the wing of a plane. 

Shortly before 5:00 p.m. ET, Jhryin Jones, 19, sprinted onto Runway 27 at the nation's busiest airport and ran up to a Delta Airlines plane which had just landed in Atlanta after departing from Miami.In a video obtained by WSB2 Atlanta, Jones can be seen wearing nothing but gray boxer briefs. 

The airport confirmed to WSB-TV 2 that Jones jumped a fence to get on the runway.  Additionally, WSB-TV 2 Atlanta obtained cockpit recordings from the airplane that Jones scaled. 

"He's tossing some stuff around," an official says. "My guess is he has his clothes off and now he is laying on the pavement...maybe doing a pushup."  

Cell phone videos shot by a passenger of the Delta flight show Jones apparently talking to himself and making strange gestures with his hands. 

WSB2 reports that Jones jumped on the wing of the Delta plane and pounded his hands on the windows, at once disturbing and amusing some passengers.

Jones was arrested and taken into custody by police within five minutes of the disruption, according to WSB2. 

Delta declined to comment and Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport did not immediately respond to a request for comment. 

Meanwhile, the FAA confirmed to USA Today that the incident forced one of the runways to be closed down. Officials redirected traffic to other runways until law enforcement examined the plane.

According to WSB-TV 2, Jones has been charged with criminal trespassing, obstruction of law enforcement officials, and public indecency charges.

NOW WATCH: This impact investor says stop trying to help people without including them in the conversation

• "Woman Walks Ahead" stars Jessica Chastain playing Catherine Weldon, a 1800s portrait painter who befriended Sitting Bull.
• Business Insider spoke to Chastain and director Susanna White about making the $12 million Western and why many of the issues addressed in the movie are still being addressed in the country today.

In Jessica Chastain’s latest movie, “Woman Walks Ahead,” she continues her quest to get powerful female stories to the big screen. But to make things more challenging, this one is a Western.

“Woman Walks Ahead” follows the true story of Catherine Weldon (played by Chastain), a 1800s portrait painter from Brooklyn who travels out West to seek out Sitting Bull (Michael Greyeyes) to paint him. But the two quickly build a friendship leading to Weldon assisting the legendary Native American leader and the Lakota people in their struggle over land rights.

Shot on location in Santa Fe on a low budget of $12 million, the movie’s director, Susanna White (“Boardwalk Empire,” “Billions,” and “Trust”), does a lot with a little to give the movie the feel of the vast Westerns that were once a staple in the movie business.

Business Insider sat down with Chastain and White to discuss the importance of casting the movie with indigenous people and why the issues of immigration and racism that are affecting the country today make the release of “Woman Walks Ahead” even more vital.

Jason Guerrasio: So you two voiced interest in working with each other, but it all comes down to that first meeting, right? If you two don't get along it doesn't really go beyond that I would imagine. 

Jessica Chastain: Yeah, we clicked at our first meeting. I really liked Susanna's work and we talked about the film and she talked about the story she wanted to tell and the point of view. We had a conversation about how all the indigenous characters would be played by indigenous people. That was incredibly important to me and I was on board. But in all fairness, I didn't think the movie was going to get made. That was the hard line: I was not going to play Catherine Weldon alongside Sitting Bull if he was a famous actor wearing a wig and who wasn't indigenous. And I didn't think a financier would finance the film. But then [producer] Erika Olde, thank goodness for her. 

Susanna White: Basically the movie was written 14 years ago for Ed Zwick to direct. I came across it three years ago. I grew up loving Westerns, as a genre. It's one of the first things that got me into cinema. Those big John Ford films, this huge sense of scale. There's a magic to that. But at the same time it was a world that I didn't connect with. It was a man's world, a very violent world, and where women were very marginalized characters — as were the Native Americans in the stories. So what I fell in love within a few pages was the Native American characters were very layered, sophisticated, we were seeing that culture from a different point of view and discovering it through the eyes and ears of this extraordinary woman. So there were two levels on which I loved it. It was a story of a strong female character but also the inverse of the Western as we've seen it. People without a voice having a voice. 

Guerrasio: Did either of you know about Catherine before making this?

Chastain: I didn't know about her. I started Googling her and then I started reading her letters, which were fascinating. Also, when I read the script I thought, "Did they really love each other?" I didn't know if that was just something added [to the script], but in one of her letters she said that he proposed to her. So I just thought that was fascinating. These people from different parts of the country who, like Susanna said, were not being acknowledged as equal human beings, and this great love and friendship that they developed for each other. 

White: Spending time on the reservation with the Lakota people, whenever I asked about Sitting Bull they said, "He was a great spiritual leader," and that became important to me in the casting. As I read stuff he'd written I would hear this phrase that I can't get out of my head, "The greatest strength is in gentleness," and so when I was casting and came across Michael [Greyeyes] I thought I needed someone who had this spiritual quality.

Guerrasio: You were working with a $12 million budget, how did you pull off the movie’s beautiful look on that kind of low budget, in regards to making a Western?

White: It was tight. We had to shoot it in 31 days, we had no time for pick ups. We never [could have] afforded it at the end of the movie. It was mind over matter. But we managed it and here's the film after 14 years, so that's all that matters. 

Guerrasio: You made the movie around 2016, do you think it would have been easier to get attention to the movie and get more money for it if you made it now? With how aware the industry is now for female-focused stories. 

White: I don't know. People are seeing that female stories actually can do well at the box office, and numbers do talk in this industry, so I think there's more of a conversation now. I don't know how much the needle has really moved. We'll see. But in how the movie is being received, I can see a shift.

Guerrasio: Do you see the needle moving, Jessica?

Chastain: Well, I can tell you with this film there's a shift since it premiered at Toronto. In Toronto I remember there was an article that in the headline from a very reputable paper it said something like "Catherine Weldon Talks to Savages." I found it so offensive, Michael Greyeyes pointed it out. If it came out now there would be greater repercussions to a headline like that. 

Guerrasio: The movie was shot while the Standing Rock protest was going on, what was it like shooting this movie and the going back to your room and seeing that on the TV?

Chastain: It was always present on set. It was always spoken about. We were taking pictures and sending them to Standing Rock with our support. There was a big indigenous community working on our film so we weren't separate from what was happening.

Guerrasio: Something like that going on in the present, can that get you deeper into the character you’re playing?

Chastain: It can help you put more into it. The story we're telling is still happening. So if anything, it just made me understand why the story needed to be told. Sam Rockwell's character says in the film that history is moving in a circle and that's true. Look at what's happening in the world today. We need to look at our history and examine and acknowledge what we've done and really learn from it in order to not repeat it.

Guerrasio: That must have been strange to experience, seeing Standing Rock was where Sitting Bull was killed. But it also has to be strange to go and promote a movie like this and then see what's in the headlines today in regards to immigration, racism, these are all touched on in the movie.

Chastain: Children being taken from their parents.

Guerrasio: Yes.

Chastain: That's what happened to that community [in the movie]. 

Guerrasio: What's the biggest thing you’ve seen an audience take away from the movie?

White: The most moving thing for me was I went and showed the movie at Rapid City a week ago and to show it to that Lakota community, they were so moved to be given the validation of their community being taken seriously. At the end of the movie they started drumming. They had this whole ceremony to give me an Indian name to welcome me to that community. They gave me the name, "Woman Who Gets Things Done," which is a beautiful name.

Almost everyone knows the White House, but few people know that the vice president has an official residence of his own.

Vice President Mike Pence and his family currently live at Number One Observatory Circle, located on the grounds of the US Naval Observatory in Washington, DC.

The private complex has been the official residence of the vice president since 1974. Walter Mondale was the first VP to move into the house.

The private residence at Number One Observatory Circle was built in 1893. It's just 2.5 miles from the White House, but feels worlds away.

It is located on the grounds of the US Naval Observatory, where scientists study the sun, moon, and stars for navigational purposes.

For 30 years, it served as the home of the superintendent of the US Naval Observatory. Then in 1923, it became the official residence for the head of the Navy.
