  • A urology doctor delivered a baby boy during an eight-hour Air France flight from Paris to New York. Dr Sij Hemal, 27, was moments away from enjoying a glass of champagne in first class when he had to jump into action after 41-year-old passenger Toyin Ogundipe went into labor. Dr Hemal, a second-year urology resident at Cleveland Clinic’s Glickman Urological and Kidney Institute, safely delivered the baby — who was named Jake — before tying the umbilical cord with a makeshift surgical clamp… a shoe string. By chance, Dr Hemal had been seated next to a French pediatrician Dr. Susan Shepherd, who was able to help and gave the baby boy a clean bill of health upon delivery. Dr Hemal had been on a day-long journey from New Delhi, India, when the drama unfolded, and was making his way back to the U.S. after attending his best friend’s wedding the day before. “I was pretty tired from jet lag,” Dr Hemal said. “I thought I’d just have a drink and fall asleep. As it turned out, I’m glad I didn’t drink anything.” Ms Ogundipe, a banker who resides between the UK and Nigeria, was traveling with her four-year-old daughter Amy when she suddenly went into labor about midway into the December 17 flight, just as the jet skirted the southern coast of Greenland, 35,000 feet below. An emergency landing would have required a two-hour diversion to a U.S. military base in the Azores Islands, so Dr. Hemal recommended to the pilot they continue to JFK International Airport, which was still four hours away. “Her contractions were about 10 minutes apart, so the pediatrician and I began to monitor her vital signs and keep her comfortable,” Dr Hemal explained. The doctors used instruments and supplies in the flight’s scanty medical kit to routinely check Ms Ogundipe’s vital signs, including blood pressure, oxygen rate and pulse. But within the course of an hour, Toyin’s contractions accelerated; they occurred seven, then five and finally two minutes apart. “T

  • EXCLUSIVE: Pic shows Australian emergency services before they rescued three UK tourists stranded on top of their camper van. Three British backpackers had to be rescued when they woke up in their camper van to find they were surrounded by croc infested floodwater. The unhappy campers called emergency crews around 6am (local time) today (TUES) when they became flooded at Green Patch, a camping ground south of Cairns, Queensland, Australia. Officers from Queensland Fire and Emergency Services (QFES) arrived at the campsite to find three tourists – two male and one female - from the UK cowering on the roof of the Scooby-Doo-like coloured hire vehicle. It’s understood the Brits feared the water could be hiding man eating saltwater crocodiles which are common in Queensland and can grow up to 16-foot long. Nearby signs indicated that the area was a crocodile warning area and locals said there were resident reptiles in the murky water.

The Al Intisar district was taken four days ago by Iraqi Security Forces (ISF) and, despite its proximity to ongoing fighting between ISF and ISIS militants, many residents still live in the settlement without regular power and water and with dwindling food supplies...The battle to retake Mosul, which fell June 2014, started on the 16th of October 2016 with Iraqi Security Forces eventually reaching the city on the 1st of November. Since then elements of the Iraq Army and Police have succeeded in pushing into the city and retaking several neighbourhoods allowing civilians living there to be evacuated - though many more remain trapped within Mosul.

The Al Intisar district was taken four days ago by Iraqi Security Forces (ISF) and, despite its proximity to ongoing fighting between ISF and ISIS militants, many residents still live in the settlement without regular power and water and with dwindling food supplies...The battle to retake Mosul, which fell June 2014, started on the 16th of October 2016 with Iraqi Security Forces eventually reaching the city on the 1st of November. Since then elements of the Iraq Army and Police have succeeded in pushing into the city and retaking several neighbourhoods allowing civilians living there to be evacuated - though many more remain trapped within Mosul.

  • EXCLUSIVE: **WARNING CONTAINS NUDITY**Just when Egyptian woman Eman Ahmed’s drastic weight loss — from a whopping 500kg to 176kg merely in three months — and controversies around the story was making international headlines, there was another woman, pegged as of India’s heaviest, who quietly underwent a second round of barbaric surgery to lose further weight at a private hospital in Mumbai. Amita Rajani, the 44-year-old resident of Vasai, weighed around 300kg and was bed-ridden for around nine years. She lost 165kg in two years. After second operation, she has lost 10kg in one month. Doctors say she will be 70 by next April. "Bariatric surgery has given me a new lease of life," said Amita after her second surgery at Laparo Obeso Centre in Mumbai on April 02. More than a month after the second operation, she now weighs 125kg. "My life has changed drastically. Until 2015, I was confined to my bedroom for almost eight years as I could barely walk a few steps. Now, I can walk a few kilometers at a stretch, drive my car to work, go out shopping. I have literally got my life back. Now, I walk for at least 2km daily, earlier I needed help to turn from one side to another in the bed. The obesity had ruined my personal, professional and social life. Whenever I want I take out my car, go for a long drive or go meet my relatives and friends and wedding and birthday parties,” said Amita, who works as a share trader, adding that her friends have organized a reunion to celebrate her transformation. Amita’s weight gain, however, did not happen suddenly. It happened over the years. Amita was 116kg when she was in class 10. "In 2007, we consulted doctors in UK but since I was born with a single kidney, they said it would be a high-risk surgery," said the lady who once ran a small soft toy factory in the city. Until 2015, Amita needed four to five people to help her stand. "Today, I step out of home every day and my mother teases me about it.'' Amita kept gaining weight t

  • EXCLUSIVE: A 21-year-old woman delivered a baby with two heads and three hands, sending doctors of the state-run facility into a tizzy in central India. Babita Ahirwar, a resident of Basauda village in Vidisha district of Madhya Pradesh, delivered the baby around 7:30 am on November 23 through C-section. Babita was married to Jaswant Ahirwar around one and a half years ago. The couple which was eagerly waiting to welcome their first baby was devastated after seeing the infant born with a deformity. "It was a mixed feeling when the nurses handed over the baby to me. Initially, I thought it was a twin, but when the nurses removed the towel, I was shocked to see our firstborn with two heads and three hands. All we wanted was a normal and healthy baby, but the almighty wanted to punish us this way. I don't know why," said new mom Babita told Newslions. Dr Surendra Sonkar of Vidisha Sadar hospital said: "On Saturday morning around 7:30 am, we facilitated the delivery of a baby through C-section. The baby had two heads and three hands. The third hand had two palms attached to it. "There is only one heart visible in the newborn. This is a very rare condition and this is the first time. I have come across such a case in my career," he said. "We had initially kept the baby in the ICU, but we thought it was better to refer them to a better-equipped facility in Bhopal," he added. At present, the baby is undergoing treatment at Bhopal's Hamidi Medical College and Hospital. 23 Nov 2019 Pictured: Baby born with two heads and three hands in central India.

  • EXCLUSIVE: **WARNING CONTAINS NUDITY**Just when Egyptian woman Eman Ahmed’s drastic weight loss — from a whopping 500kg to 176kg merely in three months — and controversies around the story was making international headlines, there was another woman, pegged as of India’s heaviest, who quietly underwent a second round of barbaric surgery to lose further weight at a private hospital in Mumbai. Amita Rajani, the 44-year-old resident of Vasai, weighed around 300kg and was bed-ridden for around nine years. She lost 165kg in two years. After second operation, she has lost 10kg in one month. Doctors say she will be 70 by next April. "Bariatric surgery has given me a new lease of life," said Amita after her second surgery at Laparo Obeso Centre in Mumbai on April 02. More than a month after the second operation, she now weighs 125kg. "My life has changed drastically. Until 2015, I was confined to my bedroom for almost eight years as I could barely walk a few steps. Now, I can walk a few kilometers at a stretch, drive my car to work, go out shopping. I have literally got my life back. Now, I walk for at least 2km daily, earlier I needed help to turn from one side to another in the bed. The obesity had ruined my personal, professional and social life. Whenever I want I take out my car, go for a long drive or go meet my relatives and friends and wedding and birthday parties,” said Amita, who works as a share trader, adding that her friends have organized a reunion to celebrate her transformation. Amita’s weight gain, however, did not happen suddenly. It happened over the years. Amita was 116kg when she was in class 10. "In 2007, we consulted doctors in UK but since I was born with a single kidney, they said it would be a high-risk surgery," said the lady who once ran a small soft toy factory in the city.

  • A total eclipse swept through the tiny town of Spring City, Tennessee on Monday afternoon. Thousands from all over the United States and a few from around the world flocked to the city with a population of under 2,000 (according to the 2010 census). The city is situated dead-center of the path of totality of the eclipse, providing a spectacular view and one of the longest durations of totality (over 2 minutes). There were no dedicated parking areas or viewing spots, so cars simply pulled into the town and parked wherever they could, lining up in rows down the streets and along the railroad tracks that run through the town. Local businesses were thriving with the influx, and many were sold out of ‘eclipse merchandise’ such as t-shirts within hours and were taking online orders for people who missed their chance to purchase a t-shirt on the spot. Eric Henson, manager at the Movie Depot, a movie-rental store, still had a few t-shirts and said his store was ‘doing great’ with all the new business. Another local resident, Amanda Gornik, came out to sell painted rocks that she decorated on the spot with eclipse images or anything a customer asked for. 21 Aug 2017 Pictured: Total eclipse in Spring City, Tennessee.

  • Meet Charley — a dancing robot ‘butler’ who delivers mini-bar item directly to your door at a new super luxury apartment tower in Los Angeles. Charley, who is based in the lobby at the opulent 40-storey Ten Thousand complex, can deliver anything from a bottle of water to champagne and chocolates to residents’ doors. A spokesman for Ten Thousand explained: “The resident makes a request and Charley enters the elevator and brings it to your door.  “Once the item is retrieved, Charley does a little dance and proceeds back down to the lobby.” Charley is one of a host of super high-end service on offer at Ten Thousand, which is located on the border of Beverly Hills and Century City and opened last year. The property, designed by Handel Architects, is being billed as the future of LA’s real estate market as the city looks to build more high-rise residences, much like the New York aesthetic. The residential tower features 75,000 sq ft of amenities and hospitality services overseen by a house staff of 80, from a leading-edge fitness and wellness center, indoor and outdoor pools, indoor and outdoor theaters, performance coaches, nutritionists and in-house car service, Residents can even book a room with an exam table to have facials and massages, or even call in their own medical technician — so if you need a few botox jabs or your fillers updating, you have the luxury of being able to do so on the site of your residence. Such luxury comes with a hefty price tag of course — two and three-bedroom apartments, complete with 10ft-high ceilings and panoramic views through floor-to-ceiling glass windows range anywhere from $9,000 to $25,000 per month while the jewel in the crown is the penthouse at $65,000 per month. 14 Jan 2018 Pictured: Ten Thousand is a new high-rise, luxury development in Los Angeles, California.

  • EXCLUSIVE: Great white sharks have mysteriously vanished from one of their most popular hunting grounds in South Africa leaving tourism bosses baffled as to what has driven away one of their biggest money spinners. Theories include a fear of Orca's who have been targeting the apex predators tearing them open to eat their fatty livers as well as pollution, climate change and over fishing of much of the great whites natural prey. Between 2010 and 2016 shark spotters recorded an average of 205 great white sightings a year in False Bay which is a 600 square mile section of the Atlantic Ocean near tourist hot spot Cape Town. In 2018 they were only 50 sightings of the deadly predators made famous by the Hollywood blockbuster Jaws and so far this year not a single one of the much-feared great white shark has been spotted. And it has been two years since the Shark Spotters Applied Research Programme has picked up a signal from any of the great white’s that had been tagged by scientists and were resident in False Bay. This comes after 5 great white sharks were washed up along the South African coastline in 2017 with gaping wounds on their side with their livers having been bitten out by two killer whales in the area. The killer whales bite a large slit in the side of the great whites after attacking as a pair and then suck out the fatty liver which is 600lb meat delicacy in a phenomenon that has only recently been discovered. The two Orca’s responsible – known as Port and Starboard as their dorsal fins hang to the left on one and to the right on the other – spurned their natural prey like seals having developed a taste for shark. The great whites population in False Bay sea to be taking no chances and have moved to new hunting grounds away from Seal Island but it is hoped that they will in time return to their usual hunting ground.

  • EXCLUSIVE: Sella McCartney has infuriated her neighbours in The Hamptons by building a 5ft high sea wall that blocks her community’s decades-old private access to its beach. The fashion designer and husband Alasdhair (correct) Willis paid $1.7million for their three-bedroom ocean front home and adjoining land three years ago. But erosion is claimed to have destroyed 40 feet of frontage in just one year so they joined with an adjacent neighbour to build the wall to save both properties. However, the imposing 230ft wide sandbag structure also runs across a beach entrance road between the two homes that is for everyone living in the private avenue. It slopes up on the avenue side but has had a 5ft sheer drop on to the beach since October last year because a storm washed away the sand that made it resemble a dune.
