A while back the news of a pregnant man who eventually gave birth to his child made headlines. The man has now revealed how he carried and gave birth to his daughter and the reason he did that. Chris Rehs-Dupin, 33, made for a unique sight when he sported beards and a protruding belly that could not simply be explained off as a beer belly. He carried the pregnancy to term, gave birth and even breastfed her and his reason for going through all that is because his wife could not fall pregnant. Chris had been born a female, Christina. He then met his wife Amy, 33, when they were both in their 20s and working at a children's summer camp and they fell in love immediately. They got into a civil partnership in October 2012 and legally married in 2013 then decided they wanted a family. The plan was for Amy to be the biological mother but after five attempts of intrauterine insemination failed, Chris, who was at the time a pre-op transgender, volunteered to carry their child. After five r...

The US Food and Drug Administration confirms that Nine deaths have been reported stemming from a rare cancer that is associated with breast implants. The extremely rare cancer, called anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) affects cells in the immune system and can be found around the breast implant. It can be found in the skin or lymph nodes, and is not a type of breast cancer. The FDA says "all of the information to date suggests that women with breast implants have a very low but increased risk of developing ALCL compared to women who do not have breast implants". Yesterday, the FDA issued an update on its understanding of breast implant-associated ALCL cases. The agency has received 359 reports of possible breast implant-associated cancer cases as of February 1. But the exact number of cases "remains difficult to determine due to significant limitations in world-wide reporting and lack of global implant sales data,". Breast implants is the top cosmetic surg...

After yesterday's terror attack in London, US First son, Donald Trump Jr reacted negatively when he read the headline and shared an Independent article titled: Sadiq Khan: 'London mayor says terror attacks 'part and parcel' of living in a major city.' .He tweeted: “You have to be kidding me?!” “Terror attacks are part of living in big city, says London Mayor Sadiq Khan.” The only problem is this article was written in September of last year about Mr. Khan’s reaction to the bombing in New York City. The article was a plea from the Mayor for Londoners to be vigilant to the dangers of living in a big city. The Mayor told the Evening Standard that he had many 'sleepless nights' after a bombing in New York last year, and said that London needs to be prepared for these kinds of attacks.  He added: "That means being vigilant, having a police force that is in touch with communities, it means the security services being ready, but it also means exchangi...

A 16 year old boy who can't be named to protect his victim's identity, tied his former girlfriend and mother of his child to a bed and burnt her with a lighter before violently raping the woman while saying 'if i can't have you nobody else will', the Newcastle Crown Court heard on Wednesday. In the horrific two hour ordeal, the teenager, gagged his victim with a golf ball in a sock, threatened her with a knife and a metal bar, tied her hands and legs, rubbed sandpaper on her arm, put a cigarette lighter on her stomach, took indecent pictures of her and then undressed her before proceeding to rape her, days after she ended their relationship. It all started when the boy called the lady who also happens to have a child for him, that he wanted to see his child at his mother's home in Gosforth, and she agreed to come meet him not knowing his mum won't be around, then the unimaginable happened! When she arrived the house, she saw that the boy had already ...

British police arrested seven people in overnight raids as the search for more information about the attack on one of the city’s busiest areas continues. Yesterday, an armed assailant drove into pedestrians on the Westminster Bridge then stabbed a police officer while trying to storm the city’s Parliament building, killing three people and injuring dozens more. Before the arrests were made, authorities searched six addresses across the country with possible links to the suspect, police said. They believe the attacker, who was fatally shot by officers, was inspired by Islamist extremism but acted alone.  

 Investors look beyond risk of globalization and oil going the wrong way Markets now and again behave in ways least expected, none more so than the resilience of emerging market currencies against the US dollar. Two of the main factors underpinning EM foreign exchange flows — globalization and oil — are going the wrong way. Globalization looks more vulnerable than ever following the G20 finance ministers’ meeting that pointedly failed to include the need to fight protectionism in its communique. Meanwhile, the oil price is under pressure from excessive stockpiles and the resurgence in the US shale industry. By rights, EM currencies should be suffering as the Federal Reserve remains on course for further tightening, while Treasury yields remain elevated despite coming off in the past week. That has prompted some traders to wonder whether conditions are similar to the 2013 “taper tantrum” when elevated yields drove investors out of EM in an unseem...

A 43-year-old father of three, Edward Herbert set one of his children on fire and doused another in petrol then told a neighbour who heard the commotion that he torched his 3 year old daughter because she “was too beautiful”. Herbert poured petrol over his three-year-old in front of his partner after spending the day boozing and smoking cannabis then set the little girl on fire and tipped petrol over his seven-year-old daughter, according to Perth Now.  Before the attack, Herbret had reportedly been heavily smoking cannabis at their home in Perth, Australia. He then allegedly told his partner that “the werewolf is coming at 12:00pm”. The court heard how nearing midnight he said “that’s it b****, I am going to kill you”, before he fetched a jerry can of petrol and entered his daughters’ room. He then poured petrol over the younger child and set her alight before dousing the older child without lighting her up. His partner tendered...

In a soon to be aired BBC documentary, Rio Ferdinand: Being Mum And Dad, the former England footballer and ex-Manchester United defender revealed that he turned to alcohol following the death of his wife Rebecca in March 2015, after experiencing guilt that she died and not him.  Breaking down while filming, Ferdinand said he started drinking in the middle of the night to get through the grief of losing her to breast cancer. The 38-year-old who is now a single-parent to their three children Lorenz, 10, Tate, eight, and Tia, five, met Rebecca when he was just 21 and they got married in 2009 on Peter Island, after he proposed during a trip to Las Vegas in 2007, a year after their eldest Lorenz's birth. 'At the beginning I was drinking a lot at night time. We have a lady lucky enough who lives with us, she would go to bed and I'd come back down in the middle of the night and probably drink a lot for the first three or four months. But I would get...

A relative of the deceased who spoke to newsmen at the family's home at Abujle-Ijesha in Yaba, Lagos state yesterday, said Mrs Orji who is a retired banker, has refused to believe that her son who is the first of three children, is dead. She is still hoping that he would be rescued. "You people don’t know what we have been through since yesterday. Please, respect our grief. This is not a case of a grandfather that died and we want to celebrate it. This whole issue has been difficult for us. The mother is up there, not talking to anyone. Not even us who are very close relatives. People have been around her since yesterday so that she doesn’t do anything drastic. She has yet to accept that he could be dead. She doesn’t even accept people’s sympathies and condolences. As a Christian, she’s believin...

Last week, we expressed our view that  precious metals looked at risk of a rebound  on a bearishly postured US dollar heading into the  FOMC  announcement. As anticipated, USD got crushed and gold/silver prices ripped. Resistance in gold around the 1217 line wasn’t even a nuisance, and has now become a line of possible support. The 17/17.30 area in silver was initially shredded in the 24-hrs after the Fed, but overall silver isn’t acting as well as gold. Nevertheless, support may be found in the low-17s. Gold: Daily Created with TradingView Silver: Daily Created with TradingView The outlook at the moment for precious metals is a little murky on this end. So, we’ll turn to the US dollar for some clarity, where conviction on direction is higher. The US Dollar Index (DXY) broke sharply last week and given the proximity of support (~99.25/98.75) there is room for the dollar to weaken further. DXY: Daily Created with TradingView With that in mind...

A former Special Adviser to the President on National Assembly Matters, Sen. Florence Ita-Giwa, has cautioned the senate against making the acting chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, Mr. Ibrahim Magu, a superstar following the rejection of his confirmation. The Senate had for the second time failed to confirm the acting chairman of EFCC as a result of reports from the Department of State Service. She, however, said that President Muhammadu Buhari could present Magu up to four times to the Senate for confirmation. In an interview on Saturday, Ita-Giwa, who spoke on allegations of Magu’s integrity, cautioned the upper legislative chamber to be careful in order not to make the acting chairman of EFCC a superstar out of sympathy from the populace. Ita-Giwa noted that scenario at the moment was a no-win situation between the executive and legislative arms. “We have to be careful because the world is watching us. At the moment, it is a no-win situation for b...

Shoki singer, Lil Kesh, has said that there are a lot of sly people in the entertainment industry. The former YBNL-signee said that not everyone who comes around you to smile and hang out really wants the best for you. He told Sunday Scoop, “There are lots of fake people in this industry. When they see you doing well, they would come around you. But what they are really after is the fame and the fortune they think you have and they wouldn’t think twice about betraying you. I have seen a lot of such people in the industry and I can’t tolerate them because I have no time for fake love.” Asked if he had ever been betrayed by someone close to him in the music industry, he said, “It has never happened to me and that is because I deliberately keep my circle small. Most of the people around me now are the ones that I knew from way back. I’m not saying that it’s bad to make friends but one just has to be careful and smart in the process.” The rapper who is also rocking a new hairstyle ...

The Chairman Senate Committee on Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Senator Mohammed Ali Ndume, says President Muhammadu Buhari can re-present Ibrahim Magu for confirmation as the Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to the Senate. He said the president, having earlier cleared Magu based on a report by the Attorney General of the Federation (AGF), Abubakar Malami should go ahead to stand by his conviction that the Acting Chairman of EFCC committed no infraction contrary to the allegations leveled against him by the DSS. Ndume stated this in an interview on a television station yesterday. He said his support for Magu to continue to head the EFCC was not because he had any personal interest in him, but because of the need to sustain the momentum on the anti-corruption battle he has been fighting. The former Senate majority leader said President Buhari should never allow any form of compromise on his commitment to the fight against corrupt...

A Cambodian aid worker, 51 year old Mounh Sarath, claims that the documentation Angelina Jolie used to adopt her oldest son, Maddox Jolie-Pitt, contained false information in order to speed up the adoption process of Maddox in Cambodia. He said that he lied that he was Maddox's father in his adoption papers in order to speed up the process of passing him into Jolie's care in 2003. He also claims that he provided a local address on the adoption papers, that he is still Maddox's father on paper and still has power of attorney over the 15-year-old boy. He said: 'In court documents, Maddox is still my son. She never cleared this up. 'She had to change his name, so the only way was for me to do it. I said he's my son. Sarath told The Sun on Sunday newspaper that he is no longer in good terms with Jolie. He added: 'I would be happy if Cambodia didn't see her again.' He showed The Sun on Sunday the document filed with a court in Battambong provinc...
