When they rushed there to help, they only found 18-month-old Lily alive. Her 25-year-old mother had died in the crash.

Over 20,000 cases on, Ebola mysteries remain unsolved

Helen Branswell The Canadian Press
Ebola has been an extraordinary challenge for science.

Over nearly four decades, the virus has triggered sporadic outbreaks in remote places, melting back into nature before scientists can mount many real-time studies to delve into its mysteries.

One of the deadliest of known viruses, Ebola can only be studied in laboratories with the most stringent biosafety and biosecurity protections in place. The community of Ebola scientists is small, and most of the scientists who do this work also rush to the scene of outbreaks, manning treatment centres or mobile laboratories.

During outbreaks, priority has always — and necessarily — focused on treating patients and stopping transmission. In those settings, research has never been the top priority. As a result, many fundamental facts about Ebola were unknown when the current West African outbreak exploded. And 20,000 cases into that outbreak, many, many questions remain unanswered.

The pilots sought permission to climb above threatening clouds. Air traffic control couldn’t say yes immediately — there was no room. Six other airliners were crowding the airspace, forcing AirAsia Flight 8501 to remain at a lower altitude.

Minutes later, the jet carrying 162 people was gone from the radar without ever issuing a distress signal. The plane is believed to have crashed into Indonesia’s Java Sea, but broad aerial surveys on Monday turned up no firm evidence of the missing Airbus A320-200.

Searchers spotted two oily patches and floating objects in separate locations, but it was not known any of it was related to the plane that vanished Sunday halfway into what should have been a two-hour hop from Surabaya, Indonesia, to Singapore. The area is a busy shipping lane. Officials saw little reason to believe the flight met anything but a grim fate.

No Canadians among 162 on board missing AirAsia plane

The Canadian Press
The Foreign Affairs Department says there’s no indication there are any Canadians on board a missing Air Asia flight.

But a spokesperson says Canadian officials are working to confirm that with local authorities.

The AirAsia jet had 162 people on board for a scheduled two-hour flight from western Indonesia to Singapore when it disappeared on Sunday.

Airline officials have said the majority of the people on the plane were Indonesian, but there were also three South Koreans, a Malaysian, a British national and his two-year-old Singaporean daughter, as well as a French captain.

Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 search resumes in Indian Ocean

The next phase of the search for the missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 has begun in the southern Indian Ocean.

A ship equipped with specialised sonar technology has arrived in a remote stretch of ocean where the plane is believed to have ended its flight.

The Boeing 777, with 239 people on board, went missing after it veered radically of course on 8 March.

Its whereabouts are still unknown despite a massive international air-and-sea search operation.

Australian officials believe the plane was flying on autopilot when it crashed.

Using satellite data, officials have concluded that the airliner ended its journey in the Indian Ocean, north-west of the Australian city of Perth.

On Monday, a vessel contracted by Malaysia, the GO Phoenix, began its work in the seas about 1,800 km (1,100 miles) off western Australia.

It will tow underwater sensors over the sea floor scanning for traces of jet fuel and using sonar and video to try to locate the plane.

Aww Poor Chef Dies After Cobra He Was Going To Cook Bit Him

 

Chef cooking snake dies after cobra bites him - 20 minutes after head was cut off

 chef preparing a dish from cobra flesh died when the snake's head bit him - 20 minutes after it was cut off.

Victim Peng Fan had been preparing a special dish made from the Indochinese spitting cobra, a rare delicacy in Asia where eating snakes is commonplace.

But when he went to throw the serpent's severed head into the waste bin, it bit him - injecting him with its fast acting venom.

Police say Mr Peng died before he could be given life saving anti-venom in hospital.

Diners who were eating in the restaurant at the time have described screams coming from the kitchen as the tragedy unfolded.

Restaurant guest Lin Sun, 44, who was in the restaurant with his wife Su at the time said: "We were in the restaurant having a meal for my wife's birthday when suddenly there was a lot of commotion.

"We did not know what was happening but could hear screams coming from the kitchen.

"There were calls for a doctor in the restaurant but unfortunately by the time medical assistance arrived the man had already died. After we heard that we did not continue with our meal."

A police spokesman said: "It is a highly unusual case but it appears to be just an accident. He prepared the snake himself and was just unlucky.

"There was nothing that could be done to save the man. Only the anti-venom could have helped but this was not given in time. It was just a tragic accident."

The snake was being diced up to be made into snake soup, which is a delicacy in the area and a much sought after dish in high-end restaurants. China has seen a rising demand for snake products, not only in restaurants but also for use in traditional medicine.

Snake expert Yang Hong-Chang - who has spent 40 years studying cobras - says all reptiles can function for up to an hour after losing body parts, or even their entire body.

Mr Yang said: "It is perfectly possible that the head remained alive and bit Peng's hand. By the time a snake has lost its head, it’s effectively dead as basic body functions have ceased, but there is still some reflexive action.

"It means snakes have the capability of biting and injecting venom even after the head has been severed."

Mysterious Death of 15-year-old Aboriginal Girl in Winnipeg. RIP Tina Fontaine

Calls for a national inquiry into Canada’s murdered and missing aboriginal women are growing louder in the wake of the death of a 15-year-old Manitoba girl.


Winnipeg police identified the body pulled from the Red River as 15-year-old Tina Fontaine.

A vigil took place Tuesday evening to honour Tina Fontaine, whose body was found Sunday wrapped in a bag and dumped in the Red River.

Mourners marched from the docks where her body was found to a monument that honours missing and murdered aboriginal women that was erected in Winnipeg earlier this month.
Fontaine had been living in Winnipeg for less than a month before she ran away from foster care. She was last seen in downtown Winnipeg on Aug. 8 and she reported missing the following day.

Investigators are treating her death as a homicide and are asking anyone with information about her final days to come forward to police.

Fontaine’s grandmother Thelma Fontaine said the family will never be complete without her granddaughter.

“She was part of the puzzle,” Thelma Fontaine told CTV Winnipeg. “Now we have a piece of the puzzle missing.”

Grand Chief Derek Nepinak of the Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs said Tuesday he met with members of the Winnipeg Police Service to “better understand the recent tragedies on Winnipeg.”

He said on Facebook that he plans to meet with police again on Sept. 4 to build “stronger lines of communication.”
 

Unbelievable! India Surgeons Remove 232 Teeth from Mumbai Teen

Dental surgeons in India's largest city say they have removed 232 small "tooth-like structures" from the mouth of a teenage boy with a rare medical condition.

They say the 17-year-old from a small village in western India had been suffering from jaw pain and swelling for more than 18 months.

Surgeon Dr. Vandana Thoravade says Ashik Gavai suffered complex odontoma, a rare condition in which a tumor grows under a gum and creates smaller tooth-like growths called denticles.

He said the team of dental surgeons took seven hours to remove all the denticles in the operation earlier this week. They were surprised at how many they totaled when counted up and believe it may be the most ever in a case of odontoma.
The teen is recovering.

Tragic as One Canadian is Confirmed Dead in Flight MH17 Crash in Ukraine

One Canadian is among the 298 people confirmed dead after a passenger plane was shot down over eastern Ukraine on Thursday, Malaysia Airline officials said Thursday afternoon.

The plane, which was carrying 283 passengers and 15 crew members, was en route to Kuala Lumpur via Amsterdam when it was shot down. It was due to arrive at Kuala Lumpur International Airport early Friday morning. The plane went down approximately 500 kilometres from Kyiv.

The death toll was increased after Malaysia Airlines said the original list did not include three infants.

At a news conference, airline officials gave a breakdown of the nationalities of the passengers and crew:

• Canada: 1
• Netherlands: 154
•  Malaysia: 38 (including 15 crewmembers)
•  Australia: 27
• Indonesia: 11
• United Kingdom: 6
•  Germany: 4
•  Belgium: 4
•  Philippines: 3
•  Unconfirmed: 47

There are reports that French and American nationals were also onboard.

A spokesperson for Canada’s minister of state said while the government is aware at least one Canadian who is among the deceased, friends and relatives in Canada with information on other Canadian citizens known to be on board the downed flight should contact the foreign affairs department’s Emergency Watch and Response Centre by calling 1-800-387-3124, or by sending an email to sos@international.gc.ca.

In a statement, Prime Minister Stephen Harper said he was “shocked and saddened” to learn that a passenger jet had been shot down, killing all on board.

“We understand from reports that a Canadian citizen is among the dead,” Harper said. “On behalf of the Government of Canada, Laureen and I offer our thoughts and prayers to the families and friends of the victims of this outrageous act.”

Harper also said Canada “stands ready” to provide support to assist authorities in determining the cause of the plane crash.

“While we do not yet know who is responsible for this attack, we continue to condemn Russia’s military aggression and illegal occupation of Ukraine, which is at the root of the ongoing conflict in the region.”

Australian Foreign Affairs Minister Julie Bishop said several passengers were travelling to Melbourne to attend an international AIDS conference in Australia.

Six Mysterious Airplane Disappearances in Aviation History

Malaysia Airlines MH370 is only the latest in a long line of planes that flew off the radar

     

The shocking disappearance of Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 has captured the attention of millions around the world as the search for the airplane and its passengers and crew continues. What happened to the flight’s 239 passengers and crew after the plane left Kuala Lumpur on Saturday? It is becoming an increasingly desperate question as the days pass.

But it’s hardly the first mystery of its kind. While it’s extremely rare that a flight simply vanishes with barely a trace, aviation history has seen its fair share of enigmatic disappearances and unfortunate flights that literally flew off the radar. Here are six of the half-solved and unsolved airline mysteries that kept investigators clueless for years.

Air France Flight 447: An Airbus A330 flight from Rio de Janeiro to Paris plunged into the Atlantic Ocean in 2009, killing all 228 passengers and crew on board. But it took a full five days for search and rescue teams to find the wreck and another three years for investigators to report that ice crystals had caused the autopilot to disconnect. The bodies of 74 passengers remain unrecovered.
