A Newton Falls family was in shock when Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg showed up for dinner at their home Friday evening.

Daniel Moore said he didn’t know who was coming for dinner until about 20 minutes before Zuckerberg arrived.

“I knew we were having a mystery guest, and that was about it,” Moore said. “It was completely incredible.”

Zuckerberg had asked his staff to find Democrats who had voted for President Donald Trump in November’s election, Moore said. Moore, who voted for former President Barack Obama in 2008 and 2012, campaigned heavily for Trump, and Zuckerberg’s staff found him quoted in an article on cleveland.com.

However, the dinner didn’t focus entirely on politics. Moore and his wife talked about their work with Kisiizi Good Shepherd Orphanage, and Moore said Zuckerberg plans to put together a fundraiser to benefit the orphans.

“He cares very much about family and about community,” Moore said. “And he’s taking steps to do a lot of very positive things with his money.”

Zuckerberg shared a picture of himself at their dinner table on his Facebook page with a post that read “Just got into Ohio. Thanks to Dan and Lisa Moore for welcoming me into your home for a wonderful dinner!”

In January, Zuckerberg announced on Facebook that he was challenging himself to visit and meet people in every state in the country this year. He said he wanted to talk to people about how they’re living, working and thinking about the future. He noted that technology and globalization have made life more challenging for many people and said he wants to find a way to change the game so it works for everyone.

“We got to know a very cool guy,” Moore said. “Just down-to-earth and real easy to talk to.”
Zuckerberg toured a Ford plant in Dearborn, Mich., Thursday. He also spent time in the south in February and March, visiting Alabama, Mississippi and South Carolina.

  The Synagogue Church of all Nations (SCOAN) has countered the BBC documentary on the late Temitope Babatunde Joshua, known as TB Joshua, founder of SCOAN. SCOAN described the documentary against TB Joshua as unfounded, and that the characters interviewed in the report were unknown to the church. The church, in a statement signed by its Public Affairs Director, Mr Dare Adejumo, said the statement was aimed at disabusing public minds from the report. The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) recalls that the BBC released a highly controversial and damning documentary on the late TB Joshua on Monday, accusing him of various crimes, including rape, against some members. SCOAN said, “BBC World Services investigative unit, code-named Africa Eye, came out this week with weird and strange episodes of atrocities against the late founder of SCOAN.” It said that to investigate and publish or broadcast reports was a central kernel of journalism, but to do so outside the ethics and fundamental principles

  The NBA has suspended former San Antonio Spurs guard  Joshua Primo   for four games   ... after it says it found he exposed his private parts to multiple women. The league announced the ban on Friday morning ... saying an investigation into the free agent revealed he had "engaged in inappropriate and offensive behavior." NBA officials called his actions "conduct detrimental to the league." They did, however, note that they "did not find evidence that he engaged in any sexual or other misconduct apart from these brief exposures." "Primo maintains that his conduct was not intentional," the league said. Dr. Hillary Cauthen , Primo's former therapist, was the first to  bring the allegations  against Primo to light after she claimed last fall that he exposed himself to her on nine separate occasions. Dr. Cauthen's attorney,  Tony Buzbee , alleged the Spurs were aware of Primo's actions, but didn't take action. Cauthen went on to file

 Sky Sports were left red-faced after an on-screen graphic mistakenly introduced Chelsea defender Axel Disasi as Noni Madueke on Tuesday night. The pair were both the scoresheet as the Blues thrashed Middlesbrough 6-1 at Stamford Bridge in the second leg of the Carabao Cup semi-final to boo their place at Wembley. But when Disasi spoke to Sky Sports after the game, an on-screen graphic introduced him as Madueke instead. Madueke is four years younger than his Chelsea teammate, plays in a different role and is English, while Disasi is French. Viewers immediately spotted the mistake and took to social media to flag up the glaring error.  Sky Sports with a huge mistake as that is Axel Disasi, not Noni Madueke,' another added, while a third described the gaffe as a 'howler'.
