1. Lois Gibson is an American forensic artist who holds a 2017 Guinness World Record for most identifications by a forensic artist. She also drew the first forensic sketch shown on America's Most Wanted, which helped identify the suspect and solve the case. When she was 21, she was raped, tortured and left for dead by a serial rapist and murderer. She vowed at that point to use her incredible artistry to help find and bring these criminals to justice. Her talent was already polished by the time she was helping police, having drawn thousands of portraits of people at San Antonio's River Walk tourist attraction spot, where she also happened to meet then Prince Charles in 1977. She is responsible for putting more than 1,300 criminals behind bars. And it's not only her work in forensics that she is famous for. In 2005, Glenn McDuffie - the man whose picture of him kissing a young woman when the Japanese surrendered in 1945 become famous - sought Gibson's help to verify he was indeed that man in the iconic photo. Have you heard of this incredibly talented forensic artist, Lois Gibson?

2. The Order of the Pug was a secret society founded in 18th-century para-Masonic society, by Clemens August of Bavaria, which was created to bypass a papal ban on Freemasonry for Catholics. The order's members, known as "Pugs," demonstrated loyalty through bizarre rituals that included barking, scratching at doors, and kissing the rear of a porcelain pug. The group's practices were exposed in 1745, leading to its decline; however it remained active until the early 1900s, with the last known Order of the Pug in Lyons, France around 1902. Have you heard of this secret society before this survey?
