Miracle Baby's Life Revived by Mother's Touch
Miracle mum brings premature baby son back to life with two hours of loving cuddles after doctors pronounce him dead, By Mail Foreign Service.
It was a final chance to say goodbye for grieving mother Kate Ogg after doctors gave up hope of saving her premature baby. She tearfully told her lifeless son - born at 27 weeks weighing 2lb - how much she loved him and cuddled him tightly, not wanting to let him go. Although little Jamie's twin sister Emily had been delivered successfully, doctors had given Mrs Ogg the news all mothers dread - that after 20 minutes of battling to get her son to breathe, they had declared him dead.
Having given up on a miracle, Mrs Ogg unwrapped the baby from his blanket and held him against her skin. And then an extraordinary thing happened.
After two hours of being hugged, touched and spoken to by his mother, the little boy began showing signs of life.At first, it was just a gasp for air that was dismissed by doctors as a reflex action. But then the startled mother fed him a little breast milk on her finger and he started breathing normally.
'I thought, "Oh my God, what's going on",' said Mrs Ogg. 'A short time later he opened his eyes. It was a miracle. Then he held out his hand and grabbed my finger.
'He opened his eyes and moved his head from side to side. The doctor kept shaking his head saying, "I don't believe it, I don't believe it".'
The Australian mother spoke publicly for the first time yesterday to highlight the importance of skin-on-skin care for sick babies, which is being used at an increasing number of British hospitals.
In most cases, babies are rushed off to intensive care if there is a serious problem during the birth.
But the 'kangaroo care' technique, named after the way kangaroos hold their young in a pouch next to their bodies, allows the mother to act as a human incubator to keep babies warm, stimulated and fed.
Pre-term and low birth-weight babies treated with the skin-to-skin method have also been shown to have lower infection rates, less severe illness, improved sleep patterns and are at reduced risk of hypothermia.
Her husband had this to say: 'Luckily I've got a very strong, very smart wife. 'She instinctively did what she did. If she hadn't done that, Jamie probably wouldn't be here.'
Adopting Adults Popular in Japan
Adopting adults is becoming popular in Japan.
In Japan, only two percent of adoptions involve babies and little kids. The remaining 98 percent are adults adopting other adults.
In the country, inheritance traditionally travels along the male branches of the family tree with the eldest being the typical recipient of the wealth and the family business. In daughter-only households the need for a male heir has lead to the practice of adopting men who are in the 20 to 30 year old age group.
People with less than desirable sons may also opt to get a better candidate.
Where are all of the extra sons coming from? Families with extra males can put them on the market. The payoff can be millions of yen.
Although the inheritance practices haven't been law since before World War 2, many businessmen find the tradition difficult to abandon.
At some companies, being adopted by the owners is considered a promotion and the battle to be the one is fierce.
The oldest family owned business in the world is Japan's Hoshi Ryokan Hotel in Komatsu, founded in 717 AD.
Anti-Monsanto Protests Planned Worldwide
An international protest is planned for May 25 against biotechnology company Monsanto in six continents and demonstrations are planned in tens of countries. Monsanto, a titan of the emerging biotech industry, has come under attack from environmentalists, agriculturalists and average consumers over the company's conduct in the realm of genetically-modified organisms and genetically-engineered foods. Despite research on the effects of GMO crops being largely considered inconclusive, Monsanto has lobbied hard in Washington and around the globe to be able to continue manufacturing lab-made foods without the oversight that many have demanded.

20 Years in Prison for a Facebook Post?
A teenager from a small town outside Boston has been held without bail for weeks. He faces terrorism charges and 20 years in prison for posting rap lyrics on the internet.
Held without bail? For writing a rap song?
A search of Cam's house found no explosives, weapons, or ANY evidence that he was planning anything other than becoming the next Eminem.
Take a minute to watch the video of one of Cam's songs above, and decide for yourself whether you think he's a threat to public safety, or just a teenager speaking his mind.
After you read this kid's story, you'll think twice about what you post on Facebook. (And that's the problem.)
Meet Cameron D'Ambrosio. He's 18 and lives in a small town outside Boston. He wants to be a rapper and calls himself "Cammy Dee" in his YouTube videos.
Oh, and he's been locked up without bail for weeks -- facing terrorism charges and 20 years in prison -- all for something he posted on Facebook.
On May 1st, Cam was skipping school and messing around on the internet. He posted some lyrics that included a vague reference to the Boston Marathon Bombing and called the Whitehouse a "federal house of horror." Soon after that he was arrested and charged with Communicating a Terrorist Threat, a felony that carries 20 years in prison.
The post contained no specific threat of violence against any person or group of people, and in the context of the rest of the lyrics and Cams' rap persona, it was clearly nothing more than a metaphor. A search of Cam's house found NO evidence that he was planning any violence, but a judge still ordered him held without bail for the next 3 months, pending trial.
Cam should be released immediately unless the D.A. can produce some additional evidence as to why he is a threat to anyone.
Please share this blog with your friends and raise some awareness for Cameron.

The only known living organism that is Immortal
While the humans have been looking for the elixir of life
throughout every period of history, it appears that there is one species of
jellyfish that are actually immortal. Turritopsis nutricula, or sometimes –
Turritopsis dohrnii, is able to transform its cells from mature state back to
immaturity, in other words – back to youth. The medusa leads a regular cycle of
life, but after maturing and mating, it reverts back to its initial state – a
polyp colony. The process is referred to as“transdifferentiation”, and it
basically makes the jellyfish unable to die.
If a mature Turritopsis is threatened — injured or starving,
for example — it attaches itself to a surface in warm ocean waters and converts
into a blob. From that state, its cells undergo transdifferentiation, in which
the cells essentially transform into different types of cells. Muscle cells can
become sperm or eggs, or nerve cells can change into muscle cells, “revealing a
transformation potential unparalleled in the animal kingdom,” according to the
original study of the species published in 1996.
But Turritopsis can — and do — die. Their regeneration only occurs after sexual maturation, therefore they can succumb to predators or disease in the polyp stage. But because the jellyfish are the only known animal with this “immortality,” scientists are studying them closely, with the hopes of applying what they learn to issues such as human aging and illness.
The bell-shaped immortal jellyfish measures up to a maximum
of bout 4.5 millimeters (0.18 in) and is about the same in its length and
width. Originating in the Caribbean, it has now spread worldwide, and the
discovery of its unique ability has heated up many discussions among the
scientists. Some claim that their mystery is soon to be solved and applied to
humans, while others only expect it to improve the quality of life at our final
stages. Either way, knowing that something out there goes back and forth from
being young to old to young again, blows your mind!
The 50 Most Perfectly Timed Photos Ever
By Internet standards, a perfectly timed photo occurs when two of the following three conditions are met: 1. Perfect Place 2. Perfect Time 3. Perfect Angle. Sometimes the holy trinity of perfectness is achieved and you get an Internet classic like so many of the photographs in the video. There are countless galleries of these images floating around. I tried my best to compile the most representative of this concept.
Incredible video of the Oklahoma tornado
YouTube user "Charlie Cook" captured the moment when the tornado formed and he followed its destructive path through the town of Newcastle, Oklahoma. In a matter of minutes it went from a funnel cloud to a full F4 tornado. We strongly recommend you DO NOT try to film tornadoes. Do seek shelter if you see or hear the sirens.

The Lion,Tiger & Bear All Live Together
A lion and tiger and bear!
As cubs a lion, a tiger, and a bear had been owned by a drug dealer who did not properly care for them. The bear’s harness grew into his skin because the owner did not alter it as the animal grew. They had been abused and neglected early in life, but were finally rescued. The bear's harness was surgically removed.
After they had been taken in by an animal sanctuary in Georgia, the staff tried to separate them due to obvious concerns that the three large predators would fight. During the trial of separation, the animals were uncooperative and behaved poorly. Once reunited, the three calmed down and were well behaved.
Twelve years later, the three friends spend their days playing, cuddling, and eating together. There are no plans to separate these lifelong friends.
