Breaking!!! Mexican woman with Zika virus gives birth to healthy child

A woman with a confirmed case of the Zika virus in the southern state of Chiapas gave birth to a “clinically healthy” baby boy, Mexico’s health ministry said.

The woman, from the town of Pijijiapan, delivered the six pound (2.8 kilo) boy in a hospital in the city of Tuxtla Gutierrez on Friday.

After an evaluation, the hospital’s pediatric center “confirmed that [the infant] is clinically healthy,” the health ministry said in a statement late Friday.

The woman is one of six known to have contracted Zika while pregnant.

Zika, which is spread by mosquitos, has been linked to microcephaly — a birth defect in which the infant is born with an abnormally small head. There is no cure for microcephaly and no vaccine against Zika.

The other five women “are in good health, they are receiving specialized continuous care and are undergoing periodic ultrasound tests,” the statement read.

Two of the women are beyond their 28th week of pregnancy, and several tests show no sign that they are carrying a fetus with microcephaly. The other three have still not reached the 28 week mark, the statement read.

Of the 80 registered Zika cases in Mexico, 45 are in the southern state of Chiapas, including three of the pregnant women.

On average Mexico, population 122 million, has 600 cases of microcephaly per year. That figure has not change since the Zika virus outbreak in Latin America, officials said.

Brazil said this week that it has registered 508 cases of microcephaly since October, a huge increase on the average annual number of 150.

Tracy Morgan Says Watching Daughter Maven Take Her First Steps Inspired Him to Get Out of Wheelchair After Deadly Crash

Tracy Morgan says he survived and recovered from the deadly bus crash because of his "star players": his wife and daughter. 

The 47-year-old comedian stopped by the The Tonight Show on Monday, and told host Jimmy Fallon about how his 2-year-old daughter Maven gave him the strength he needed to recover. 

"That's the reason why I survived, for her, for her and my wife. They my star players," he said. 

"She said 'dada' when I came home," Morgan revealed. 

"I remember, I was in that wheelchair and I seen her. She was 14 months and I seen her take her first steps. And it inspired me to get out the wheelchair and take my first steps." 

He and his toddler had even more in common, though, he said. 

"One day I saw her running down the hall in a doo-doo pamper [diaper] and I started running down the hall wearing my doo-doo pamper," he joked. "I was still pooping on myself … I liked pooping on myself." 

The heartwarming comments come more than a year after the deadly 2014 crash that left one dead and Morgan severely injured and in a coma.

73-Year-Old World Champion Weight Lifter: 'I'm in the Best Shape I've Ever Been in'

Barbara Garmon began working out with her personal trainer Chad Landers when she was in her early 50s – and even though she's now in her 70s she hasn't stopped since. 

"I love being strong," Garmon tells PEOPLE. "I love feeling powerful. I love the fact that I'm 73, and most women my age have trouble walking up steps. If there's an elevator and steps, I always take the steps because I can do it. I feel terrific." 

Her dedication to fitness has seen her through some very challenging times. Garmon shattered her left arm and wrist after a gardening accident and was told she'd never have use of her hand again; she survived breast cancer and the chemo and surgery that went with it; and she spent time recovering after donating a kidney to her sister. 

"I was weak and I was frail," says the business owner of her time spent in recovery. "But I'm in the best shape I've ever been in right now." 

Garmon decided to enter the world of competitive weight lifting at the recommendation of Landers. 

"I looked up the records and I realized no one had competed in her age group and weight class [in California], so I just threw it out there," Landers tells PEOPLE. 

Olugbo-in-Council debunks Oba Akinruntan's EFCC arrest...

There were reports online yesterday that the traditional ruler had been arrested for money laundering but his chiefs say this is not true. Read the press statement below...

The Olugbo-in-Council which is the Highest Traditional Body of Ugboland in Ilaje Local Government Area of Ondo State have debunked rumours of the arrest of the Olugbo of Ugboland, His Imperial Majesty, Oba (Dr.) Frederick E. Obateru Akinruntan, CON.

Speaking through the Secretary of the Kingdom, Chief I. A. Demehim, the Olugbo-in-Council, asserts that the reported arrest of the Highly Revered Monarch, who is the Paramount Ruler and Prescribed Authority of Ugboland as well as Founder of the Multi-Billion Dollar Obat Group is completely false. According to High Chief Isaiah Demehin, “the news report by Sahara Reporters which is also being peddled by several soft sell bloggers that Kabiyesi was arrested by EFCC for Money Laundering is not only laughable and false but also a sacrilege to the traditional stool of our land.

The Olugbo is domiciled in Ugbo, and Kabiyesi was dutifully attending to traditional matters as well as the needs of his subjects on Friday” Furthermore, Chief Isaiah Demehin stated that it is pitiful that such a blog as widespread as Sahara Reporters would tell a lie against a Monarch while throwing away all ethics which places the onus on them to confirm from the Palace of the Olugbo which is always filled with throngs of people and activities which the Olugbo presides upon by himself or cross check their write up with the EFCC as a mark of professionalism.

In conclusion, he stated, “I wish to advise our journalists to always cross-check their facts and stop embarrassing innocent persons. It is especially sad that any journalist would embark on a path to destroy the great image of Nigeria’s Doyen of Industry who has contributed immensely to the socio economic and human capital development of Nigeria. Our Monarch is a great father and would not join issues with any media house, however, I think it is dutiful of any journalist that is sound to learn how to accord honour to revered traditional stools, and avoid being used by disgruntled persons to tarnish the images of global icons as the Billionaire Monarch whose business conglomerates have transformed Ugboland and Nigeria as a whole.

Keep your TSA, we are not interested..Fayose tells FG

Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti State has told the Federal Government to perish the thought of imposing the Treasury Single Account (TSA) on States, pointing out categorically that the Federal Government was not in the position to counsel or force any State to accept policies that are not working for those that introduced them.

Governor Fayose said in a press statement issued on Friday, by his Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka that “the Federal Government should rather face the dwindling economy of the country instead of going about grandstanding on a TSA policy that was already tainted with fraud

Choi !!! 4-yr-old sentenced to life imprisonment

Ahmed Mansour Karni, a 4-year old child, will be spending the rest of his life in prison following a court ruling in western Cairo on Tuesday. The little boy was convicted in absentia for several charges, including murder, reports Ventures Africa. Going by the timeline of events that led to the alleged crimes the youngster is being convicted for, Karni was about 2-years old at the time, as they occurred two years ago during the riots and demonstrations of January 3 2014. But his name was on a list of over a hundred people “wanted” for murder, disturbance of the peace and damaging state property. Prior to the ruling, a defense attorney, Faisal al-Saud, who said that Karni’s name ended on the list by mistake, presented the child’s birth certificate to the court, but it appears the material was not transferred and that the presiding judge did not review the case. “The child, Ahmed Mansour Karni’s birth certificate was presented after state security forces added his name to the list of accused, but then the case was transferred to the military court and the child was sentenced in absentia in an ensuing court hearing,” said the lawyer. Although Karni’s birth certificate proves that he was born in September 2012, the court indictment states that the child is guilty of murder – four counts, attempted murder – eight counts, threatening security forces and vandalizing property belonging to the Egyptian Health Administration and vehicles belonging to security forces. How can a two-year old commit these crimes? In response to Karni’s ruling, Egyptians took to social media blasting the government and the clearly dysfunctional legal system, accusing them of corruption and injustice. An angry Egyptian lawyer, Mohammed Abu Huraira, said that the court decisions can’t be appealed; he issued a response to the ridiculous judgement saying, “On the eve of injustice and madness in Egypt, a four-year old child was sentenced to life imprisonment. He is accused of disturbance, damage to property and murder. The Egyptian scales of justice are not reversible. There is no justice in Egypt. No reason. Logic committed suicide a while ago. Egypt went crazy. Egypt is ruled by a bunch of lunatics.” A history of unfair trials When former army chief, Abdel Fattah el-Sisi, was elected president in 2014, he made a pledge to the UN General Assembly to uphold judicial independence, freedom of expression, and the rule of law but, in practice, el-Sisi has failed to walk the walk. Instead, his government extended the jurisdiction of military courts to try civilians and gave room for human rights violations by security forces. According to Amnesty International, the Egyptian judicial system is deeply flawed. Mansour Karni is not the first child to receive such an unfair and unjust judgement, courts throughout Egypt sentence children to life imprisonment and even death in contravention of both international and Egyptian law. Hundreds of activists have also been sentenced to death after unfair trials on false charges. Judges fail to follow due judicial processes, as in the case of little Ahmed Mansour Karni, with some trials proceeding in the absence of the defendants and their lawyers. “In many cases, courts convicted defendants despite an absence of substantive evidence against them. The Public Prosecution, increasingly, did not seek to determine individual criminal responsibility, instead bringing identical charges against groups of accused and relied heavily on reports and testimonies by police and security forces…”

Court grants EFCC's request to seize Tompolo's assets

A Federal High Court sitting in Lagos today granted the request of the EFCC to seize some assets belonging to former Niger Delta militant leader, Government Ekpemupolo, alias Tompolo who has been declared wanted for refusing to appear in court to answer to charges of corruption leveled against him by the anti-graft agency.

Justice Buba ruled that the assets should be auctioned if Tompolo fails to come out of hiding three months after this order.

Among the assets to be seized by the EFCC include his house located at No. 1, Chief Agbamu Close DDPA Extension Warri (Effurun), Delta State, his River Crew Change Boat named MUHA -15; “Tompolo Dockyard,” “Tompolo Yard,” the Diving School at Kurutie, at Escravos River; “Tompolo House” at Oporaza Town, opposite the Palace.

Caitlyn Jenner Files Trademark for Cosmetics Line in Her Name

Kylie Jenner has the Lip Kit market connered, but there's still room for Caitlyn Jenner to find her niche.

According to E News,the 66-year-old I Am Cait star has filed a trademark for a cosmetics line in her name.Per her filing, this would give Caitlyn exclusive rights to sell makeup, fragrances, makeup remover, nail care preparations, nail polish, nail polish remover, non-medicated skin care preparations and skin cleansers in her name.

Getting dolled up is fun for everyone, but it's also means something to Caitlyn on a deeper level. As she told Time magazine, "One thing that has always been important for me, and it may seem very self-absorbed or whatever, is first of all your presentation of who you are. I think it's much easier for a trans woman or a trans man who authentically kind of looks and plays the role. So what I call my presentation."

"I try to take that seriously," she went on. "I think it puts people at ease. If you're out there and, to be honest with you, if you look like a man in a dress, it makes people uncomfortable. So the first thing I can do is try to present myself well. I want to dress well. I want to look good. When I go out, as Kim [Kardashian] says, you've got to rock it because the paparazzi will be there. The second thing I want to do in living my life authentically is be intelligent on the subject. Hopefully as time goes on I'll learn more and more and more and get better at that."
