For the world's richest, buying a home is of no consequence really. It's a drop in the bucket for them. Meta's CEO Mark Zuckerberg, recently sold his town house in San Francisco for $31 million, it is unlikely to make a significant contribution to his income, given that he is the fifteenth richest man in the world, valued at $67 billion. But Zuckerberg's latest sale is nowhere close to some of the world's most expensive properties. Here's a list. Four Fairfield Pond, New York ($248 million),Built in 2003, the house is in the Hamptons, Long Island. The Hamptons have long been known as a playground for the rich and famous of New York to scurry off to when a vacation is required. The house covers 63 acres of land and comes with 29 bedrooms and 39 bathrooms. Not just that, the house comes with not one but three swimming pools, a basketball court, and bowling alley. The house comes with a garage that fits nearly a 100 cars. Currently, the house is owned by Ira L. Rennert, an American billionaire who is the founder and CEO of the Renco Group. Villa les cèdres, France ($221 million),This 14-room mansion sits on a 35 acre property on a French-peninsula that is often called the Peninsula of billionaires after the number of extremely wealthy individuals who live there. Initially, the home was priced at $413 million, making it one of the most expensive homes on sale worldwide. The home is now owned by Ukraine's richest man, Rinat Akhmetov,Villa Leopolda ($750 million),Sitting on the French Riviera in Villefranche-sur-Mer, is the Villa Leopolda. Initially bought by Edmond Safra in 1987, the detached villa is a historical monument. The house was inherited by Lily Safra following her husband's death in 1999. Lily herself died in 2022. The estate the house is built on was allegedly owned by King Leopold II of Belgium. The villa saw many parties in the 90s. ,Kensington Palace Gardens, London ($222 million),Billionaire steel magnate Lakshmi Mittal reportedly owns three homes on the Kensington Palace Gardens street, also known as 'Billionaire's Row.' While not much is known about his properties, the area is subject to high security. His neighbours include the likes of Roman Abramovich, the former Russian oligarch as well as the Israeli embassy. ,Ellison Estate, California ($200 million),The founder of Oracle, Larry Ellison is well-known for his love of purchasing properties. The sprawling estate was built in 2004 and spans 23 acres with 10 buildings, a man-made lake, a Japanese style bath house and even a Koi pond. The billionaire worth $43 billion reportedly has a property portfolio worth $1 billion. Antilia, Mumbai ($1 billion+),Estimated at $2.2 billion in 2020 by property surveyors, the 27-floor building was built by Asia's richest man, Mukesh Ambani in 2010. The house has a 168-car garage, a ballroom, nine high speed elevators, a 50-seat theatre, terrace gardens, a swimming pool and even a temple.

Jakubonis “did not know who the speaker was or that the speaker was a political person,” according to the complaint, which was filed in U.S. District Court in Rochester. The complaint added that when Jakubonis watched video of Thursday evening's incident he told investigators he “must have checked out.”,Also read: Who is David Jakubonis?,According to video of the attack, Jakubonis raised his arm toward Zeldin as he held a keychain with two sharp points.

He is running against Kathy Hochul, who took over as governor in 2021 after Andrew Cuomo quit.

U.S. Rep. Lee Zeldin, the Republican candidate for New York governor, was assaulted by a man who apparently tried to stab him at an upstate event Thursday but the congressman escaped serious injury. I'm OK, Zeldin said in a statement. Fortunately, I was able to grab his wrist and stop him for a few moments until others tackled him. Zeldin's campaign said the attacker was taken into custody and the congressman continued his speech. He is challenging incumbent Democratic Gov. Kathy Hochul this November. The attacker climbed onto a low stage where the congressman spoke to a crowd of dozens outside Rochester, flanked by bales of hay and American flags. A video posted on Twitter shows the two falling to the ground as other people try to intervene. Also Read | Donald Trump’s tweets, before, during and after the Capitol Hill riots,Among those who helped to subdue the attacker was Zeldin's running mate, former New York Police Department Deputy Inspector Alison Esposito, said state GOP Chair Nick Langworthy. Langworthy told The Associated Press that he didn't have any details on the attacker or his weapon but exchanged text messages with Zeldin afterward while the congressman was speaking to police. He is fine. He's not seriously injured. It's just a chaotic scene there, Langworthy said. He said Zeldin had just a little scrape but it wasn't what anyone would consider an injury. In a statement, Hochul condemned the attack and said she was relieved to hear that Congressman Zeldin was not injured and that the suspect is in custody. Also Read | Jan 6 hearings: Watch Trump go off-script in message to Capitol rioters,Deputy Brendan Hurley, the Monroe County Sheriff's Office spokesperson, gave a statement to the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle that said the office is aware of an incident at the speech of gubernatorial candidate Zeldin this evening. A suspect is in custody and Major Crimes is investigating. Messages seeking information from the Monroe County District Attorney's Office were not immediately returned, and phone messages were left with the county's emergency dispatch. Langworthy called on Hochul to issue a security detail for Zeldin to protect him on the campaign trail. This could have gone a lot worse. This could have really ended in a horrible way tonight and this is unacceptable, he said. Also Read | January 6 hearings: Key takeaways from second prime-time session,Hochul's press secretary Avi Small referred questions about providing Zeldin with a security detail to New York state police. Zeldin, an Army Reserve lieutenant colonel who has represented eastern Long Island in Congress since 2015, is a staunch ally of former President Donald Trump and was among the Republicans in Congress who voted against certifying the 2020 election results. He has focused his campaign on fighting crime but faces an uphill battle against Hochul. He'll need to persuade independent voters — which outnumber Republicans in the state — as well as Democrats in order to win the general election. Democrats are expected to focus on Zeldin's vocal defense of Trump during both of his impeachments and objection to the election results.

Elmont, NY, USA

The Belmont Stakes was held for the first time in 1868, marking it the oldest of the three Triple Crown races. August Belmont Sr. a famous New York City industrialist, was the race's financial sponsor. However, the initial event did not take place at the Elmont track, where the competition is now hosted. Instead, the event took place at the Bronx's Jerome Park. Jerome Park is named after another New York City business genius, Leonard Jerome. Also read: Belmont Stakes 2022: All you need to know about the Belmont Park track,The race was run in the Bronx until 1890, when it was transferred to the adjacent Morris Park Race Course. It continued there until 1905, when the Belmont Stakes moved to the newly built Belmont Park track in the town of Elmont. The event has stayed on Long Island to this day. However, the race has not been continuous, as it was suspended in 1911 and 1912 due to New York State's brief prohibition on horse racing betting. The evolution of the Triple Crown,Gallant Fox was the first horse to win all three major races (the Kentucky Derby, the Preakness, and the Belmont Stakes) in 1930. Nonetheless, the phrase Triple Crown did not become popular until 1935, when Omaha (son of Gallant Fox) repeated his three-race success. Following Omaha's victory, the Triple Crown became a household term. Also read: Belmont Stakes 2022: Racing odds, picks for the 'test of the Champion',The distance between the three races has not varied. However, prior to the 1930s, race dates changed, and on a few unusual occasions, the Preakness and Belmont Stakes took place on the same day, making a Triple Crown triumph improbable. Challenges of racehorse transportation,Another impediment to the establishment of the Triple Crown was horse transportation; prior to the introduction of the internal combustion engine, hauling a horse by train was both expensive and inefficient. As a result, owners did not take their horses too far away from home to partake in a race. The Longest Yard explained,The Belmont Stakes is known as The Test of Champions because of its extra 1/4 mile in length. The two additional furlongs (eight furlongs in a mile) transform this event into a test of stamina and persistence. Unlike the Derby and Preakness, which test a horse's speed, the Belmont Stakes allows fans to judge whose jockey can best pace their steed on the longer route around the course. Also read: Belmont Stakes 2022: Purse, prize money breakdown of the race,What exactly is a furlong?,Even if you've only watched a few horse races, you've probably heard the term furlong at least once or twice. If you're wondering where the term came from, it comes from mediaeval England, where an acre was defined as a furlong wide and a furlong long. Because a mile is eight furlongs long, a square mile is 64 acres in size, with each acre measuring 220 by 220 yards. Today, the term furlong is virtually solely used in horse racing. The Incredible Victory of Secratariat in the 1973 Belmont Stakes,Secratariat was neck-and-neck with Sham in a race in 1973, at least for the first part of the event. Then Secretariat dominated the race, leaving Sham in the dust and winning by more than 30 lengths. The horse set a record for twelve furlongs on a dirt track in the process, which still holds today. Since then, every Belmont Stakes race has been compared to Secretariat's historic victory. So yet, no horse has even come close. Also read: Belmont Stakes 2022: All you need to know about the horses,Horses can now fly,Horses are now flown from race to race, frequently arriving a few days before a major event like the Belmont Stakes. Because of the realities of equestrian travel, it is significantly easier for a horse to compete in all three events. There are even dedicated planes designed for horse travel that can transport up to 20 racehorses at once.

NEW YORK (AP) — A hit-and-run driver pleaded guilty Friday in a suburban New York crash that killed the father of Nicki Minaj and was promised a year or less in jail, disappointing prosecutors and the hip hop star's mother. ,In state court in Long Island's Nassau County, businessman Charles Polevich admitted leaving the scene of the February 2021 accident that fatally injured Robert Maraj as he walked along a road in Mineola. ,Polevich initially got out of his car and looked at the injured man on the ground, but then drove off, didn't call 911, garaged his car and covered it with a tarp, authorities said. Polevich pleaded guilty to tampering with evidence by concealing the car. Also read | Patrick Lyoya was killed by cop's shot to the head, autopsy reveals,Maraj, 64, died at a hospital the next day. Judge Howard Sturim said Polevich would get “no more than one year in jail,” along with community service and a suspended license. The 71-year-old is due to be sentenced Aug. 3. The victim's widow, Carol Maraj, told reporters she was “not happy” with the planned sentence. The widow, who is suing Polevich, said seeing him in court left her shaking at the memory of her husband fighting for his life in the hospital. Also read | New York court suspends family DNA searches for crime suspects,Prosecutors, who sought a one-to-three-year prison sentence, also took issue with the planned penalty. ,“Given the severity of the defendant’s conduct, we disagree with the sentencing commitment from the court,” Nassau County District Attorney’s office spokesperson Brendan Brosh said in a statement. Polevich's lawyer, Marc Gann, called the hit-and-run “completely out of character” for his client, who hails from Long Island but has a drilling and water purification business in Guam. Also read | Who was Mike Hagerty, Friends' Mr. Treeger dead at 67?,“He does feel tremendous empathy for Mr. Maraj's family and tremendous remorse for any role he played in his death,” Gann said by phone after court.

Messages were sent to representatives for Nicki Minaj, who called her father's death “the most devastating loss of my life” in a post on her website last year. ,The platinum-selling, Grammy-nominated rapper — known for tracks including “Anaconda,” “Starships” and “Super Bass” — was born Onika Tanya Maraj.

Two nurses from Long Island were recently placed under arrest for allegedly scamming people with forged Covid-19 vaccination cards in return for money. The elaborate scheme helped the duo rack up over $1.5 million, according to reports. The plan was orchestrated by 49-year-old nurse practitioner Julie DeVuono and 44-year-old licensed practical nurse, Marissa Urraro. According to the Suffolk County Police Department, the duo is accused of charging forged vaccine cards for a price of $220 for adults and $85 for the underaged. Rodney K. Harrison, Police Commissioner of Suffolk County spoke to NBC 4 and said, “As nurses, these two individuals should understand the importance of legitimate vaccination cards as we all work together to protect public health.”,Also Read: Explained: What is Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS)?, According to the Suffolk County District Attorney’s Office, the nurses had been running the scheme since November 2021 out of Wild Child Pediatric Healthcare in AmityVille, Long Island, New York. The healthcare centre is owned and managed by DeVuono. ,The duo would file fake data in the New York State Immunization Information System (NYSIIS) to fraudulently list the individuals as inoculated. Also Read: New York man arrested for threatening to kill Donald Trump,According to NBC 4, officials also said that DeVuono and Urraro would set up fake vaccine cards for undercover NYPD officials as well. Investigators found $900,000 in cash at DeVuono’s home, according to prosecutors. Other financial records at DeVuono’s home indicate the duo allegedly having racked up over $1.5 million in profits. Both the nurses were charged with forgery. DeVuono was also charged for “offering fraud.”,A similar instance took place in Italy earlier this month where a group of Italian scamsters were placed under arrest for pretending to jab people with the Covid-19 vaccine. The group and mediators of the scheme would pretend to vaccinate people and then forge fake vaccine certificates in return for money. The incident occurred days after Italy had announced restrictions such as mandatory vaccination for using public transportation.

A Long Island police official will be New York City’s next police commissioner, the first woman to lead the nation’s largest police force. Mayor-Elect Eric Adams told the New York Post on Tuesday that his choice, Nassau County Police Chief of Detectives Keechant Sewell, is a proven crime fighter with the experience and emotional intelligence to deliver both the safety New Yorkers need and the justice they deserve. Also read: Elon Musk announces Tesla will accept Dogecoin, spiking the crypto,The Associated Press reported that Sewell, 49, will replace Dermot Shea, who is retiring from the NYPD after 30 years, the last two as commissioner. She will begin when Adams takes office on January 1. Chief Sewell comes from a department that has about 2,400 uniformed officers — less than a tenth of the size of the roughly 35,000 officers employed by the New York Police Department. Also read: Keechant Sewell set to be New York's first female police commissioner,According to The New York Post, Chief Sewell, who grew up in Queens, worked in the narcotics and major cases units, and as a hostage negotiator. In September 2020, she was promoted to chief of detectives in September 2020. This is a case of someone identifying her early on in her career and moving her up, he said. This is someone who has experienced every part of the department from patrol to internal affairs. Adams will announce her appointment at Queensbridge Houses in Long Island City in Queens, where Chief Sewell lived as a child. Also read: New York ethics board tells former Governor Andrew Cuomo to return book money,In January, Chief Sewell will take over the New York Police Department at what could be the most consequential moment in two decades. A national crisis of trust in American policing has emboldened efforts to reduce the department’s footprint, even as murder and shooting rates remain higher than they were before the pandemic. The relationship between the department and the city’s police unions is strained, and there have been growing calls for more transparency over policing tactics and disciplinary procedures.
