Indian baby stuns doctors after being born with heart on the outside of his body... and surviving into his sixth day

A poor Indian couple have made a desperate appeal for financial help to save the life of their son who was born with his heart outside his body. Priyanka Pal, 24, was rushed to the labour room of the government-run Sultanpur Hospital in Uttar Pradesh state late last Wednesday where she gave birth to a baby boy. But the baby was born with the incredibly rare condition ectopia cordis, which left his heart protruding from his chest, and now needs expensive emergency surgery to prevent him from dying within days.

Mr. Bungle - None Of Them Knew They Were Robots



Words:


Mendel's machines replicate in the night
In the black iron prison of St. Augustine's light 
He's paying the bills and they're doing him proud
They can float their burnt offerings on assembler clouds

With omega point in the sight
The new Franklin's fly their kites
And the post modern empire is ended tonight

From history
The flood of counterfeits released
The black cloud
Reductionism and the beast
Automatons gather all the pieces
So the world may be increased
In simulation jubilation
For the deceased...

Spray-on clothes and diamond jaws
Wrinkles smoothed by nanoclaws

With my machines I can dispatch you
From this world without a trace
Our nostalgia ghosts are ready to take your place

Content-shifting shopping malls
Gasoline trees and walk-through walls

None of them knew...

I feel the grey goo boiling my blood
As I watch the dead rise up out of the earth
Try to hide from the lies as they all come true

Deus absconditus
Deus nullus deus nisi deus

I feel the grey goo boiling my blood
As the fenris wolf slowly bites through his chain
Try to hide the myth as it becomes a man

None of them knew they were robots

Buying an X or an O In state craft tic tac toe
Cats game for Joe blo
Post industrial bliss
A binary hug or kiss
Can be wrung from utility mist

They stole the great arcanum
The secret fire
Moloch found his gold
For the new empire
Once again
The necrophage becomes saint

Lindy hop around the truth
Jump back wolf pack attack
Slap back white shark attack
Swingin' up there in the noose
Jump back wolf pack attack
Slap back white shark attack

Phased array diffraction nets
From full-wall paint-on TV sets
Migratory home sublets
And time shared diamond fiber sets

Recombinant logos keys
Bitic Qabalistic trees

I feel the grey goo boiling my blood
As leviathan and his bugs freeze the sea
Try to save the world by immolating myself

From history The flood of counterfeits released
The black cloud
The resurrection of the deceased
Automotons gather all the pieces
So the world may be increased
In simulation jubilation
For the builders
Of the body of the beast

Man dies while taking selfie on top of train

I don't know whether I have to laugh real hard or 'pity the fool that goes on top of a train and take of all things a picture'... or both? 

A 21-year-old from southern Spain died on Saturday after being electrocuted when he climbed on to a train to take a photo of himself with friends.

Man, 23, jailed for raping 92-year-old woman

The attack took place on Christmas Eve in the woman's home in Skaraborg County, western Sweden. The man attempted to initiate intercourse with the elderly woman by assaulting and threatening her, but she managed to lock herself in the bathroom, at which point the man left the premises. He returned soon after, however, and found the woman alone in her bedroom. He then raped her in "a particularly reckless manner", according to the prosecution. The 23-year-old was arrested soon after and charged with, among other things, aggravated rape. He was subsequently referred for a psychiatric assessment after which it was concluded that the man was not suffering from any serious mental disorder at the time of the rape.

Jail for spurned man, 93, who killed love interest

Judges sentenced a 93-year-old Frenchman to a decade behind bars on Friday for brutally slaying a female friend who rejected his romantic advances. He later told police he wanted to teach her a lesson. France's eldest detainee was sentenced to 10 years in prison on Friday for having killed an 82-year-old woman who he had a crush on, but rejected his advances. A court in the northeastern city of Reims found Marcel Guillot, a 93-year-old man nicknamed "Grandfather Marcel", guilty of "death blows on a vulnerable person with premeditation." The body of Nicole El Dib was found in December 2011 in a stream that crossed her property near the village of Saint-Gilles in a pool of blood. She had been beaten, strangled and stabbed to death, but the killer would escape police for another five months. A DNA analysis of blood found on a watch left on the crime scene eventually pointed the finger at Guillot, who was arrested as he began his annual vacation on an island on the French Atlantic Coast.

Minnesota dad kills son who refuses to install cable in home

An elderly Minnesota father fatally shot his son during a dispute over installing cable in the family home, then held a SWAT team at bay during an hours-long standoff, police said. Pang Vang, 84, called his pastor Monday morning to complain that his son, Chue Vang, 36, wouldn’t pay to have the TV service installed in their suburban Maplewood home, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reported. During the argument, Chue Vang — who owned the home and shared it with his parents and four siblings — told his father he could move out if he didn’t like the rules. Pang Vang barricaded himself in his bedroom, according to court records, and when Chue Vang opened the door, his father blasted him once in the chest. A relative grabbed the rifle from the dad, a former member of the Laotian military, as family members fled the home and called the cops.

'Suicide magnet' Golden Gate Bridge may soon get $66M safety net after record 46 plunged to their deaths in 2013

Golden Gate Bridge officials say they'll soon vote on whether to install a long-discussed but controversial suicide net on the span, considered by many as the biggest 'suicide magnet' in the world. Last year was the deadliest since the bridge was completed in 1937--with 46 substantiated jumping fatalities--and now a design that would put a stainless steel netting system 20 feet below the sidewalk to catch would-be jumpers is complete. The idea has strong support with directors of the Golden Gate Bridge, Highway and Transportation District, who plan to vote on the idea spring, but the $66 million cost and potential impact on the iconic span's aesthetic have some saying: not so fast.

Japan releases world’s longest serving death row inmate because evidence that put him behind bars for 45 YEARS was probably made up

A Japanese court has ordered the release of the world’s longest serving death row inmate because the evidence used against him was likely made up. Iwao Hakamada, 78, a former professional boxer convicted of the 1966 murder of a family, has spent the last 45 years behind bars on death row, a Guinness World Record – including 30 years in solitary confinement waiting to die. The court ordered a retrial for Mr Hakamada - who was sentenced to death in 1968 but not executed because of a lengthy appeals process - although the prosecution has four days to decide whether it will appeal the decision. According to local media, Mr Hakamada was released from Tokyo Detention House for the first time in decades at around 5pm today, Japanese time. Accompanied by his sister, Mr Hakamada, in a yellow shirt, made his way slowly out of the court to a car before being driven away.

Tiny 5ft 4in heartless gangster who gunned down ex-girlfriend, 19, then let fellow thugs shoot her son, 2, in the head as he clung to his leg makes it to FBI’s 10 most wanted list

A Salvadoran thug who executed his 19-year-old ex-girlfriend and let fellow gang members shoot her terrified two-old-son as he grabbed his leg for help has been added to the FBI's 'Ten Most Wanted Fugitives' list. MS-13 gang member Juan Elias Garcia, 21, whose last reported sighting was somewhere in Honduras in 2011, is the fourth person sought by federal authorities in the Long Island killings of 19-year-old Vanessa Argueta and her 2-year-old son Diego Torres, said George Venizelos, the FBI assistant director of the New York field office. Garcia, who is 5 feet 4 inches tall, and weighs 125 pounds is a native of El Salvador and is the first MS-13 gang member to make the bureau's most wanted list. He allegedly brought Argueta to the woods of Central Islip, Long Island in February 2010 under the ruse of taking her to to dinner, Venizelos said.

Oregon man avoids death penalty for beating his father and father’s girlfriend to death

An Oregon man who beat his father and his father's girlfriend to death nearly two years ago was spared the death penalty but will spend the rest of his life in prison with no chance of parole, a judge ruled Tuesday. Johan Gillette, 38, received two consecutive life sentences following emotional testimony from victims' relatives in Lane County Circuit Court. Gillette could have faced the death penalty. But his own family and that of the other victim opposed execution, and Gillette's brother told his older sibling to sign a sentencing agreement that took the death penalty off the table in exchange for waiving some appeal rights.

Killer makes funny faces to his daughters as they see him executed for rape and murder of 17-year-old girl

Pussy system with their last meal... they don't fucking deserve one! Eat shit and die!

A man convicted of kidnapping, raping and killing a 17-year-old girl made funny faces and mouthed words at his own daughters minutes before he was put to death last night. Jeffrey Ferguson, 59, was executed by lethal injection just after midnight on 26 March at the state prison in Bonne Terre, Missouri. He was accused of kidnapping Kelli Hall as she finished her shift at a Mobil gas station in St. Charles, Missouri on Feb. 9, 1989. Her naked, frozen body was found 13 days later on a St. Louis County farm, and police determined she had been raped and strangled. Her killer was animated just before his execution as he lay strapped to a hospital gurney. He had enjoyed a final meal he ate barbecue ribs, French fries and apple pie. To ease the tension, he made funny faces and mouthed words to relatives, who included his two daughters, sitting in the observation room. As the lethal drug was administered, he took a few deep breaths before becoming still, and his daughters cried as he closed his eyes. He was pronounced dead at 12:11 a.m.

Two killers leave a trail of bodies along Interstate 5 in California in the 1980s

Interstate 5 stretches nearly 1,400 miles from the Mexican border to British Columbia. Except for a brief section where it is known as the San Diego Freeway, most natives simply refer to the road as “The Five.” But in the 1980s, it might just as well have been called the Highway of Death. Two serial killers, working separately, stalked women along the interstate through the decade. One would become known as the I-5 Killer, the other the I-5 Strangler. Together, they are responsible for more than a dozen confirmed killings, but investigators believe that the actual number could be at least four times as high.

Death sentence upheld for former bar hostess who killed 2 men

SHIMANE — The Hiroshima High Court has upheld a death sentence handed down in December 2012 for a former bar hostess convicted for murdering two men in Tottori Prefecture in 2009. The Tottori District Court had sentenced Miyuki Ueta, 40, to death for murdering Kazumi Yabe, 47, a truck driver, and Hideki Maruyama, 57, a store owner, NTV reported. Ueta owed both men money, the court heard. Yabe drowned in the sea, while Maruyama met a similar fate in a river. Autopsies revealed that both men had been drugged before they went into the water. A panel of six lay judges handed down the guilty ruling in the 75-day trial. Lawyers for Ueta, who admitted to defrauding the two men but denied killing them, appeal the ruling, claiming the prosecution’s case was based solely on circumstantial evidence, NTV reported.

Fred Phelps, Westboro Baptist Church founder, dead at 84

Fred Phelps, the pastor who led a small Kansas church's vitriolic "God Hates Fags" anti-gay campaign across the United States, has died, the church said on Thursday. Phelps, whose Westboro Baptist Church in Topeka, Kansas, won a 2011 freedom-of-speech U.S. Supreme Court decision related to their anti-gay picketing, died on Wednesday in a Kansas hospice at the age of 84. "People die - that is the way of all flesh," a blog post on the church's website said. Phelps founded the church in the 1950s. In his later years, Phelps, known as "Gramps" to his family, turned over much of the church's day-to-day operations to his offspring.

Family of four 'brutally beat man for 2 days then left him in the woods to be eaten by wolves after he assaulted their child'

A Christian family of four brutally beat a man and dumped his bloody body in the woods to be eaten by wolves, prosecutors have said. Raymond Jones, 45, his wife April, 38, their son Justin Bey, 21 and his fiancée Samantha McClellan, 18, have been charged with attempted first degree intentional homicide, among other charges. The family allegedly beat the unnamed man, 40, at the Jones' house in Wabeno, Wisconsin on March 10 and 11 before hauling him to nearby snow-covered woods and beating him again.

The man was a friend of April Jones and had been staying at the family's home for three weeks when they accused him of hitting one of their young children on the behind. For two days, the family allegedly assaulted the man with sticks, punched and kicked him in the crotch, according to a criminal complaint, as reported by WSAW. Among the brutal treatment, the man was allegedly urinated on and had feces wiped on his head. Raymond Jones, a firefighter who belongs to a Christian motorcycle association, said it was 'the worst he had ever seen anyone beat', according to the complaint. The group told investigators they left him in the woods where they hoped wolves would attack him because of the blood he had lost, the complaint filed in Forest County Circuit Court said.

But two people on ATV vehicles were riding in the woods on March 12 when they came across what they thought was a suitcase - before realizing it was a man doubled over. They thought the man, who was covered in blood, wearing one shoe and with his pants down to his ankles, was dead until he started making to speak. They hauled him on the back of their vehicle and took him to a nearby convenience store, where they called 911.

He sustained fractures to his face, a broken nose and jaw, and two broken ribs as well as frostbite all over his body, according to the complaint. He was expected to have a leg and the other foot amputated, WLUK reported. On finding out he had survived the ordeal, McClellan was reportedly upset. The four suspects are charged with attempted 1st degree intentional homicide, false imprisonment, two counts of contributing to the delinquency of a child, kidnapping, and aggravated battery. Raymond Jones is also charged with strangulation.

Jealous boyfriend who stabbed his girlfriend 29 times then read Oscar Wilde after she met another man on an Oxbridge dating site is jailed for at least 19 years

A jealous lover who murdered his girlfriend over her affair with a man she met on a dating site for Oxbridge graduates was jailed for life today. Jonathan Tebbs, 46, stabbed dedicated town hall chief Kate Dixon 29 times with a Swiss Army knife before reading an Oscar Wilde poem about a man who kills his wife. He stripped her clothes off and calmly carried her into the shower where he washed the blood from her lifeless body at a flat in Streatham, south London. The killer attempted to scrub the murder scene clean and then searched on the internet for Wilde's The Ballad of Reading Gaol, which includes the verse: 'Yet each man kills the thing he loves … The coward does it with a kiss, the brave man with the sword.'

Under pressure Chinese schoolboy 'leaps to his death in the middle of class' in horrific footage posted online

A pupil at a Chinese high school is seen apparently leaping to his death in surveillance camera footage that has been uploaded to the Internet. The clip shows the scene in a crowded classroom as pupils settle down for a lesson. They all appear to be preparing their materials, save for one student who sits motionless in the bottom right. Just as the youngsters appear ready to start their lesson, that boy suddenly stands up at his desk and runs to the nearest side of the room. Although that part of the room is out of shot, it is understood that he leapt from a window - a conclusion that seems backed up by the distraught response of fellow pupils.

Husband who 'was always being nagged by his wife to get a job' confesses to strangling her as they took a shower together in cold water to save money

Despite claims to the contrary, home life is NOT a prison. I get this everlasting tale of domestic disputes that turns ugly for the worse, cause people, and especially 'men vs. women' tend to annoy the fuck out of each other rather than leave a non existing bond that's kept for the sake of that which you are used to, i.e being together or a shitty habit. But the reality is, is that you are not confined and free to leave whenever, you just need to say to yourself, 'I'm getting out, I'm leaving, this may just not be for me'. I don't care how long your relationship has been, a weight will lift from your shoulder so heavy, you probably weren't even aware it was weighing and crushing you down and erasing your very existence completely. Observe, keep in check, always and foremost, yourself. It avoids over complicated bullshit and insignificant peeves that could've been left in non-existence and bore the shit out of everyone around you. 

Fuck you as always,
J.A.C.

A German man has confessed to strangling his wife and sealing her in a concrete tomb in the family home... because he 'could not bear her nagging any longer'. Gerd Paulus, 52, told a court in Bonn that he murdered wife Sigrid, 40, as they showered together - in cold water because she said they had to save money - as she moaned at him to get a job. Speaking soberly and calmly, he told the courtroom: 'I could bear the continuous nagging no longer. No man could. She was violently yelling at me to find a new job. She could win a gold medal for nagging.'

Pastor and family killed in fire after firefighters were given the WRONG address

A fast-moving fire claimed four lives on Thursday in New Jersey's second-largest city, where the mayor said a mix-up over the street name delayed the emergency response. Jersey City Mayor Steven Fulop said the fire also likely destroyed five houses and displaced at least 30 people. He said it took firefighters 7 to 8 minutes to get to the scene instead of the usual 3 to 4 minutes because a dispatcher misunderstood a caller. But the mayor said that officials do not believe the delay cost lives because the home was already engulfed when the first calls came in.

Iranian man sentenced to having his eyes gouged out, right ear and nose cut off after hurling acid in young girl's face

An Iranian man should be sentenced to having his eyes gouged out after pouring acid over a young girl's face leaving her blind, an Iranian court has ruled. Opposition group, The National Council of Resistance of Iran, said the man could have his right ear and nose cut off as punishment for attacking the girl with acid, causing her to lose her eyesight and right ear. The man was convicted last October of intentionally attacking the girl, haartez.com reported. The national council said Iran's high court defended cutting off the body parts of those found guilty of a crime, and removing eyes, as part of the country's judicial system. Last month, the state-run Mehr news agency, reported another Iranian man was sentenced to have one hand and one foot cut off as punishment for an unspecified crime. As many as 95 people are thought to have been executed in Iran this year.

'Jealous husband stabbed his Westernised Muslim wife 19 times in the neck after affair... leaving her six-year-old son to find her body and dial 999'

A 'jealous' husband stabbed his 'Westernised' Muslim wife 19 times in the neck after he discovered she was having an affair, leaving her six-year-old son to find her, a court heard. Farkhanda Younis, 30, known to friends as 'Jabeen', was killed in a 'ferocious' attack at her home in Chadderton, Oldham, in the early hours of April 19 last year. Her body was found after her six-year-old son, who cannot be named for legal reasons, rang 999 because he couldn't rouse her and her bedroom door was locked. Jahangir Nazar, 35, who married Ms Younis in an Islamic ceremony in 2012, has admitted manslaughter but denies murder in a Manchester Crown Court trial, claiming his responsibility was diminished by mental illness.

NYPD slow to make the connection in Park Plaza Hotel slayings that claimed lives of eight women

No doubt New York’s Finest would just as soon forget that the Park Plaza Hotel ever existed. Eight women who lived alone there turned up dead in their rooms over a 16-month stretch, and the NYPD failed to make a connection. The first to die was Theresa Jordan, 39. Her decomposed body was found April 10, 1973, at the hotel, at 50 W. 77th St., opposite the American Museum of Natural History. Today, the rebranded building is called Parc 77, and closet-sized apartments go for three grand a month. But 40 years ago, it was a welfare flop where rooms rented for 40 bucks a month to down-and-outers. The coroner was summoned to the Park Plaza again 16 weeks after Jordan died. Kate Lewinsohn, 65, a retired stenographer, was found suffocated and raped in Room 221. Bodies really began piling up at the hotel in the spring of 1974.
