Their babies must be given antiretroviral (ARV) medication within 24 hours of birth, otherwise the risk of the infection being passed from mother to child during pregnancy, labour, delivery or during breast-feeding is around 45%. According to the UN, mother-to-child transmission in the developing world creates 260,000 new infections in children every year The programme is enabling newborn babies to take their medicines efficiently - via a pouch that looks just like the small ketchup sachets you get at fast food restaurants. Only in this case, they are filled with antiretroviral drugs, which protect against HIV. Dr Robert Malkin, from Duke University, who led the design of the pouch and the research into its use in Ecuador, says some countries are better equipped than others to make use of it. Cuba was recently declared by the World Health organization as the first country with 0% HIV infection between mother and child. (credit: Daniel Pardo, bbc) [url]realitytopline..com[/url]

Drunk driving: one may even kill ones love ones......drunk driving is suicidal.... |
[url]realitytopline..com[/url] Four bridesmaids were killed and seven other people were seriously injured when a hen party's limousine was destroyed by a hit-and-run drunk driver in New York. The group, who were on a wineries tour, had just left a vineyard when a red pick up truck ploughed into the side of their vehicle at 5.30pm on Saturday in New York’s wine region in Long Island. The girl’s limo had been making a u-turn when the collision happened. "The pickup truck was halfway through the limo," said witness Lynne Lulfs. "We saw bodies hanging out of the left side of the car. They looked like young girls. It was just arms, and heads and hair." The bride and another member of the hen party were left in a critical condition, while the limo driver, three other occupants and the Dodge truck driver were also hurt. Three of the group died at the scene and the fourth died after being taken to the hospital. (credit:Christopher Bucktin, New York)

Jimma the dog gets her head stuck in a wheel rim and has to be gently cut out by team of firefighters According to the fire department (UK), members tried using liquid soap and oil for ten minutes, but couldn't get the Jimma out. The IFD wrote: 'Using a tool that cuts brake pedals on cars, firefighters were able to make several substantial cuts in the rim that then allowed them to use the spreaders to further open the rim. 'It took firefighters over an hour to get the rim removed. The dog’s airway was never compromised and the dog appeared otherwise ok.' Jimma was later taken home by the 20-year-old woman, the fire department said.. [url]realitytopline..com[/url]

Kenya's Westgate shopping mall has reopened for business, almost two years after Somali Islamists stormed in and massacred 67 shoppers and staff in four days of carnage. Around 50 shoppers - some of them survivors of the massacre - queued on Saturday to be the first to pass through newly-installed metal detectors at the main entrance, after Nairobi governor Evans Kidero and Atul Shah, owner of the main regional supermarket chain Nakumatt, declared the mall back in business in a ribbon-cutting ceremony. more stories @ [url]realitytopline..com[/url]

Strange things happening right? I guess that money will go a long way to help orphanage homes here in Africa and Naija...... |
Emmie became obsessed with dogs after enduring years of mental and physical abuse from bullies at school. She brought her first, Doodles, at the age of 19 and thanks him and the rest of her companions for turning her life around. Emmie said: 'At my worst I was so depressed I barely left the house, I had no confidence at all. 'Bullies would follow me home, call me names, spit on me and frequently beat me up for no reason at all. 'Then one day a friend suggested to get a dog to keep me company so I went to get Doodles, the rest is history and that decision changed my life forever. 'I spend a lot of money on them, some people think I'm insane but I've worked extremely hard on my business so why shouldn't I spend it on what I want. Some parents choose to spend thousands on their children at beauty pageants, some people spend huge amounts on cars or addictions like smoking or even shopping. 'My dogs are my hobby and I want to give them the best life possible.' But last week she took her hobby a step further by getting two of her canines to tie the knot, which included outfits for the whole pack, a reception and even a first dance. "I performed the ceremony for them, they said their doggy vows and we used a ring for Coco it was a fantastic day". And it isn't just Bailey and Coco who have enjoyed blow-out parties, Emmie celebrates all of her dogs' birthdays too. 'We celebrate all of their birthdays by throwing parties and I make doggy cakes and treats. They eat normal food, go for long walks and have casual days, but every now and again I just like to pamper and manicure them. ( credit:Martha Cliff for MailOnline) [url]realitytopline..com[/url]

More people have stepped foot on the moon in the middle of space than have walked in the deepest portions of our oceans. The giant oarfish is thought to be the reason for most sea serpent sightings throughout history. These massive water-dwelling creatures can reach up to 36-feet in length, which is bigger than a shipping container. Previously, the oarfish was thought to be incredibly rare, but seems to be more common than scientists once thought.(s:lolwot) Wonders of the ocean deep.... [url]realitytopline..com[/url]

A couple of hours ago, a gun man carrying an AK-47 with 30-round magazine opened fire at the glass door of a military recruiting center in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Then the gunman, who according to a law enforcement official was driving in a rented silver Ford Mustang convertible, moved on to his next target more than seven miles away: a Naval reserve center. There, he rammed into a gate at some point during his shooting rampage (where he killed 4 Marines and was eventually killed by police, a U.S. official said. He has been identified as Mohammad Youssuf Abdulazeed 24yrs. Authorities haven't released details yet about where at the centers the victims were shot or how the gunman gained access. US President, Obama, says the shooting is a 'heartbreaking circumstance'. [url]realitytopline..com[/url]

The talented musical artist says, “I invited Kim Kardashian because people talk about her. So, bringing her here was purely a business decision. People say she is popular for no reason, but I always tell them that she has some talents". “She is famous in her own right for some reasons. Apart from the fact that she is a stylist. She has a cosmetics and clothing line, too. Whether you like those talents or not and whether you like what she is doing or not, it does not matter. She is doing it, regardless of what you think or not. Personally, I appreciate people with that kind of mindset.” When asked how he sometimes felt after seeing nude photographs of the reality TV star displayed in the social media, Darey replied that he would keep his opinion to himself. But he went on, “She didn’t take her clothes off when I brought her here. Her coming was to play a certain role, which she did effortlessly. Some people that didn’t understand her full job description would have said that she stayed for only five minutes or so. Why would somebody come for five minutes? “She spent about a day here and gave exclusive interviews." [url]realitytopline..com[/url]

I will admit I have never seen this kind of nature photo before. A big credit to David Canales. This bizarre picture shows the majestic bird of prey locked in an intense aerial battle with two seagulls. The once-in-a-lifetime nature shot was captured by David Canales, a recent graduate from the University of San Antonio, Texas who lives in Anchorage, Alaska. The eagle seems to have grabbed one gull in his claws which can exert around 800 psi (pounds per square inch) of pressure. The other gull appears to be fighting the bird of prey, but his beak is a small match for the eagle. (Big credit to David Canales & Mirror UK) [url]realitytopline..com[/url]

Grammy-winning singer Brandy learned the hard way when she recently boarded a subway train in the city. It may have been her incognito outfit of hoodie, headscarf and glasses, but during a rendition of the song "Home," the singer was pretty much ignored. "Nobody heard me singing?" Brandy asked after belting out the tune. "Nobody cares? OK." Brandy, sometimes it is difficult to come back after a long absence from the entertainment limelight. But don't give up..

Those of us who still leak liquor without control should have second thoughts now or face grave health dangers. |
People who still swallow liquor without control should have a change of heart and visit a rehab. This great Mum tells her story to the world how alcohol destroys her life. Hazel Birnie, of Aberdeen, doesn't want pity. She says candidly: “I've brought this on myself. It’s my own fault.” Alcohol has destroyed Hazel's liver. She is only 48, but doctors have told her she will be dead in a couple of months. “If my story can save just one person, that’s all I want for my last days,” mum-of-three Hazel said. “The damage I've done to myself is so bad, I want to warn people of the dangers. “I was warned and warned by doctors to stop drinking and I didn't. There’s no higher price to pay than the one I'm paying now. “I won’t be here to meet my grandchild. My daughter is going to need her mum to help her but I'm not going to be around to do that for her. “I would love to have held that baby in my arms. I would have spoiled it rotten, like a granny should. “I feel guilty about that every day.” Hazel now has end stage liver disease and “zero” liver function. Doctors have told her she is not fit enough for a transplant and there is nothing they can do to save her. She is expecting to be admitted to hospital any day to begin end-of-life care. The doctors are doing what they can to make Hazel comfortable. She is being treated for severe ascites, a condition linked to liver failure where the stomach swells as fluid builds up between her organs.

@visocrate, I concur with you. For his age it is life imprisonment apparently |
Oskar Groening, known as the "bookkeeper of Auschwitz", was sentenced to four years in prison by a German court. The 94-year-old former guard at the Nazi death camp at Auschwitz was convicted of being an accessory to the murder of at least 300,000 Jews. He was responsible for counting the belongings confiscated from prisoners and had admitted "moral guilt". His lawyers said he did not facilitate genocide, but prosecutors argued that he had helped the camp run smoothly. Many observers have questioned whether Mr Groening will ultimately be sent to jail, given his advanced age. He is expected to be one of the last Nazis to face a courtroom. The trial was held in the northern German city of Lueneburg, hearing testimony from several people who had survived the death camp.(s:bbc) The very life that we live is indeed complex........

"I was in my bathroom at home on a sunny afternoon. The sun came in and hit the edge of a piece of mirror. The mirror became a prism and projected a rainbow across the sink. I put my arm into it. It is beautiful to see the strength of the colours as they hit the texture of my skin and it seemed to be a lovely found metaphor for what I think an artist should be which is someone creating work from their experience of the real world." s: Marc Quinn [url]realitytopline..com[/url]

The forward move to Manchester City has made him become the most expensive English player ever and he is under contract until 2017, but turned down a new £100,000-a-week deal at Liverpool. Manchester City appear to have finally gotten Raheem Sterling after Brendan Rodgers’ side reluctantly accepted a bid believed to be around £49m for the England international. The transfer is subject to contract negotiations and a medical. He was left out of Liverpool’s squad which flew out on Sunday for their pre-season tour of Thailand as talks over the big-money switch progressed. Imagine, at a tender football age Raheem Sterling is already worth millions of pounds..... see more stories @ [url]realitytopline..com[/url]
