Brave bride loses cancer battle just ten days after marrying partner of 10 years

Brave bride and New Day columnist Mo Akhtar has died from cancer just 10 days after marrying her partner of 10 years.

Mo, 32, from Bow, East London wed Farbaz, 40, in St Joseph’s Hospice in Hackney on 19 March.

She started an emotional diary for publication in The New Day to chart her first days as a newly-wed, and some of the last days of her life.

Her hope was to raise awareness of lung cancer in young people and her words struck a chord with thousands.

Tragically, she passed away at home on the same day her first entry was published, last Monday.

Farbaz said: “She wanted for her thoughts and words to be read in the paper and keeping them going has been a tribute to her.”

Iranian billionaire Babak Zanjani sentenced to death over $2.8 billion fraud

Following a long trial in which he was accused of fraudulently pocketing $2.8 billion, Iran's billionaire tycoon Babak Zanjani has been sentenced to death, a judicial official said today March 6. The 41-year-old who is worth $13.5 billion and holds a Danish citizenship was convicted of fraud and economic crimes. 

Judiciary spokesman Gholam Hossein Mohseni-Ejeie said at the press conference that apart from the death sentence, Zanjani must repay money to the state.

Zanjani became notorious during the era of president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, finding ways to channel hard currency from oil sales to Tehran despite financial sanctions imposed on the Islamic republic's banks as punishment for its nuclear programme.

Sun Ladies - former sex slaves waging war on ISIS beasts who tortured and raped them

They are the Force of the Sun Ladies – many of them former ISIS sex slaves who have escaped their jihadi tormentors.

They have suffered the worst atrocities imaginable, rape and torture – with some having lost everything, reports the New Day.

One woman describes giving birth while being held as a sex slave then being forbidden to feed her newborn son.

When her baby cried out in hunger, the woman’s captor beheaded him.

The grief endured by these women is unimaginable.

Having escaped their captors, were they to have abandoned all hope and turned their faces to the wall, the world would have understood their despair.

The computer legend who invented email has died

Internet Hall of Famer Ray Tomlinson has died.

Tomlinson was the man who basically invented email as we know it today, including making the choice to use the "@" sign in an email address. He was 74.

Tomlinson invented email, a system where a user on one network could send a message to someone on another network, in 1971.

He proceeded to win many awards over his lifetime for email. But he couldn't say what the first email ever sent actually said.

When asked about it in an interview with The New York Times in 2009, Tomlinson explained, "I sent a number of test messages to myself from one machine to the other. The test messages were entirely forgettable and I have, therefore, forgotten them."

On Saturday, the man widely recognized as the grandfather of the internet, Vint Cerf, tweeted the news that Tomlinson had passed away.

BREAKING NEWS: Nancy Reagan has died at 94

Nancy Reagan has died at the age of 94.

The former First Lady, wife of President Ronald Reagan, passed away in Bel Air on Sunday after suffering congestive heart failure.

Starting as an actress in the 1940s and 1950s, she married Ronald Reagan - then president of the Screen Actors Guild - in 1952.

Mrs Reagan was an influential First Lady during her husband's presidency from 1981 to 1989. 

Notably she spearheaded the 'Just Say No' to campaign against drugs, speaking at schools and appearing on TV shows such as Dynasty and Diff'rent Strokes to promote the cause.

'Drugs take away the dream from every child’s heart and replace it with a nightmare, and it’s time we in America stand up and replace those dreams,' she said in a speech which led to 12,000 Just Say No clubs being set up across the country and a Just Say No Week implemented by Congress.

Her efforts are credited with driving cocaine use down to a 10-year low.

Ronald Reagan died on June 5, 2004, after a 10-year battle with Alzheimer's disease. 

In recent years, Nancy struggled with her health after falling at home and breaking three ribs in 2012, not long after breaking her pelvis at home in 2008. 

Despite her own health setbacks, however, Mrs Reagan remained active in politics, particularly in relation to stem-cell research.

15 ways to stay focused all day, according to scientists

What was I doing again?

We've all had days where we can't seem to focus, asking that question too many times to count. For some of us, those days are more common than we'd like.

Whether it's fatigue, distractions, lack of motivation, or something else entirely, our inability to focus digs a hole in our productivity and, therefore, can jeopardize our chances of success.

But you don't have to go to extremes, like the main character in "The Wolf of Wall Street" does, to get focused. There are better ways.

Here are 15 tips that scientists have found that enhance focus.

Minimize multitasking.

Multitaskers might seem superhuman, but they pay a big price, according to a 2009 Stanford study. In a sample of 100 Stanford students, about half identified themselves as media multitaskers. The other half did not.

The test examined attention spans, memory capacity, and ability to switch from one task to the next — and the multitaskers performed more poorly on each test.

"They're suckers for irrelevancy. Everything distracts them," Clifford Nass, who was a researcher for the study, said in a Stanford press release.

Man accidentally kills himself while taking a selfie with a gun

Selfies are usually harmless, but occasionally, they can be deadly. That was the case for one Washington man who decided to snap a photo of himself with a firearm in hand.

Police in Concrete, Washington, have ruled the man's death an accident after he shot and killed himself while attempting to pose for a selfie. The man's girlfriend told investigators that the couple had snapped several photos with the weapon throughout the day but that a bullet had accidentally been left in it during the incident.

As strange as this tragedy may seem, it's just one of several selfie-related deaths and injuries reported so far in 2016. The causes range from Bison attacks to drowning, but all of the incidents occurred while the victims were trying to capture a particularly striking self-portrait.

It's also not the first gun death to involve a selfie. In 2013, a teenage girl in Arizona accidentally killed her brother while the two posed for photos that they planned to post on Facebook

Take a Deep Dive in This Two-Passenger Personal Sub

Billed by its Florida-based manufacturer as the world’s deepest-diving submersible with a transparent acrylic hull, the Triton Submarines Triton 6600/2 (tritonsubs.com) is designed to take its pilot and passenger 6,600 feet below the surface of the ocean. The passenger compartment remains at surface pressure regardless of the depth of the dive.

The orb-shaped hull enclosing the compartment provides an unobstructed view of the surroundings, and six standard-equipment 20,000-lumen lights illuminate the view. The sub travels at 3 knots, so it takes about an hour to reach its maximum depth, but the lithium-battery bank powering the propulsion system is good for a 10-hour dive. The sub’s starting price is $5.5 million.

$100 Million Beverly Hills Home on Billionaire’s Row Hits the Market [EXCLUSIVE]

Designer and developer Michael Palumbo has created a profusion of jaw-dropping residences, but he says his latest project—a $100 million estate that will be built in Beverly Hills, Calif.—is his greatest work yet. “I’ve been doing this for 33 years and this is probably the biggest labor of love and the best project I’ve been involved with,” says Palumbo. “It’s the pinnacle of my career.”

Inspired by a floating estate in Singapore, Palumbo envisioned a compound-style home that revolves around water. Under his guidance, plans for the grandiose residence were designed by award-winning architects Shubin + Donaldson. Blueprints for the 24,500-square-foot estate feature seven bedrooms (including a 3,100-square-foot master suite with private access to a rooftop garden); 14 bathrooms; a great room with a hidden bar; and an 18-seat dining room—all wreathed in eye-catching water features.

I haven't failed against Boko Haram- Buhari

In a fresh interview with Al Jazeerah, President Buhari says he has not failed in his war against Boko Haram despite some recorded incidents of attacks by the sect members in some parts of Nigeria

“I have not failed. When we came in Boko Haram was effectively in 14 local governments. Nigeria has 774 local governments. They hoist their flags and they said they had a certain caliphate but today they no longer to hold any local government.
They have reverted to improvised explosive devices blowing soft targets, and that will be a kind of terrorism which will be difficult to eliminate because it is technological, but they cannot hold any local government again. They are using technology but they cannot carry out organised attacks, overrun police post, attack military installations, they cannot do that now.”he said
