'Fake' Togo team played Bahrain in friendly

A "fake" Togo national team played against Bahrain in an international friendly last week, prompting an investigation from the African nation's sports ministry and FIFA.

Bahrain beat who they thought was the Togo national team 3-0 in Bahrain last Tuesday, but Togo officials have claimed to have no knowledge of the match. It has emerged the players may not have been professional footballers or even Togolese nationals but mystery still surrounds their true identity.

Sheik Ali bin Khalifa Al Khalifa, vice president of the Bahrain football federation, has insisted the match was legitimate and that the confusion has been created by a conflict between the Togo sports ministry and the interim Togo football federation. Al Khalifa did concede that the Togo team, which was not expected to feature the country's Europe-based star, was still suspiciously weak.

Seiyi Memene told AP: "We cannot send our players to play friendly matches abroad without the approval of FIFA. The players that took part in the friendly match against Bahrain were completely fake. We have not sent any team of footballers to Bahrain. The players are not known to us."

Mayor's aide bites cop over Lisbon traffic dispute

(Reuters) - A top municipal official in Lisbon's Oeiras suburb sank his teeth into a traffic police officer during a discussion over a fine, apparently enraged by the familiar form used by the officer to address him.

Police said on Monday Esequiel Lino, an aide to the mayor of Oeiras, had come to the police station to protest his daughter's car being towed away by police.

"He started verbally abusing the officers, kicking the desk and was warned several times, but it didn't stop him. He went on and ended up biting one of the officers in the arm, and had to be detained," a police spokeswoman said.

The officer had to be treated in a hospital.

The Diario de Noticias daily quoted a police source as saying the official had become infuriated when a young policeman, telling him to stop shouting, addressed the 64-year-old using the familiar form of "you," without the honorific "sir."

Lino's responsibilities in the mayor's administration include links with the municipal police.

Pay us $11k or the puppies get it

Russian bailiffs have threatened to take what is most precious from a Russian pensioner who has failed to pay a debt -- her three Shar Pei pedigree puppies, they said Friday.

The pensioner, who bailiffs did not name, owes 350,000 rubles ($11,330) to an individual in her home town in Russia's volcanic Kamchatka region in the Far East.

"If she does not fulfill her obligations (to pay back the debt) within 10 days, the puppies will be sold by the Federal Agency for State Property Management," bailiffs said in a statement on their site fssprus.ru.

In Kamchatka, Shar Pei puppies fetch 15,000 rubles ($482.6) each, media reported. But bailiffs said they will try sell them for 5,000 rubles to attract more potential buyers.

They added that the famously wrinkled Shar Pei puppies have been allowed for the time being to remain with the pensioner, who breeds them as her sole source of income as she has no property.

Buttock enlargement goes horribly wrong
​
If you're looking to get in on the cutting edge of crime, there's no more lucrative career during these wonderfully vain and self-absorbed times than fake plastic surgery. Take Ana Josefa Sevilla of Miami, a fraudulent M.D. specializing in the art of discount butt enhancement...

Our saga begins a few months back, when Lady Sevilla was trolling for customers outside a Miami spa. That's where she encountered Donia Rodriguez. The two women got to talking, and Donia complained that she didn't like the shape and contour of her butt. It was apparently lacking in all-encompassing bootiliciousness.

Sevilla, claiming to be a doctor, offered to make those worries go away for the low, low, everyday price of $1,100. So Donia showed up at Sevilla's fake medical practice for the procedure.

Sevilla first injected an unknown substance that she claimed was anesthesia. But fake anesthesia, just like fake doctors, doesn't seem to work very well. As Sevilla continued to drill Donia's butt with injections, the pain kept getting more unbearable, until Donia finally passed out.

She was so out of it after the procedure that she had to call her mom to pick her up. She would soon need surgery after developing severe infections, and she ended up spending two weeks in a hospital. Doctors believe she could have been killed -- or at least lost her leg -- if she waited any longer for treatment.

This isn't the first time a woman's nearly died from fake butt enhancement. Florida police say the practice is a damn-near epidemic. Women seeking to beautify themselves on the cheap have been injected with everything from super glue to Fix-A-Flat, the chemical used to repair car tires. They're also getting injected with silicone used for industrial purposes, not the medical kind. [...]

Sevilla, meanwhile, has been hit with two counts of unlicensed practice of a health care profession and practicing medicine without a license.

I read that one, and felt that her lawsuit was bogus. Her uterus had been removed, and he etched her name on the organ so it wouldn't get mixed up with others. I suppose if he had tossed it in a baggie and written her name with a sharpie she might have been less upset.

But really, this isn't like the doctor who carved his initials into a living patient.

'Wind lent Moses hand' in parting Red Sea

IN the biblical version, "Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and the Lord caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all night".

In reality, wind, hydrodynamics and the unique topography of the Nile Delta may have had the same miraculous results for the Israelites.

A study based on 14 computer models suggests that Moses may indeed have been able to lead his followers out of Egypt between walls of water -- a story told in both the Bible and the Koran.

The study by the US National Centre for Atmospheric Research and the University of Colorado replaces the hand of God with a 63-mph east wind blowing for at least 12 hours.

It also suggests that the epic crossing of the Red Sea happened 75 miles north of Suez, where an ancient branch of the Nile approached a shallow coastal lagoon near the modern Port Said. Otherwise, one of the study's authors claims: "The simulations match fairly closely with the account in Exodus."

In that account, Moses and the Israelites are driven from Egypt by the Pharoah's army, which pursues them across the Red Sea only to be drowned when the waters return to their natural state.

Carl Drews, the lead author of Dynamics of Wind Setdown at Suez and the Eastern Nile Delta said yesterday: "The wind moves the water in accordance with physical laws, creating a safe passage with water on two sides and then abruptly allowing the water to rush back in."

Using the computer models and modern understanding of the phenomenon of "wind setdown" -- by which strong, steady winds have been shown to push back large volumes of water temporarily -- Mr Drews concluded that a gale of the kind described in the Bible could have created a land bridge two miles wide and three miles long and open for perhaps four hours.

Mr Drews is a devout Christian who maintains a website about his efforts to reconcile his faith and scientific work. (©The Times, London)

A tory councillor lived in his home with his mother's decomposing body for SIX WEEKS because he could not accept she had died, an inquest heard yesterday.

Richard Stewart, 63, even told a colleague he was leaving a council meeting early as "mum wants to watch Ascot".

But a nurse who visited his home in Truro, Cornwall, in July 2009 found the corpse of Pat Nixon, 85, upstairs - she had died in May.

Mr Stewart, who later quit as Tory councillor for St Austell, has since died. But he told police in a statement at the time: "My life's been organised around looking after her for such a long time I couldn't accept she'd gone.

"She died in her sleep. She was obviously dead, so I didn't alert anyone."

Yesterday his ex-fiancee Jenny Stewart told the inquest: "When I visited him I was never allowed upstairs." Coroner Emma Carlyon recorded an open verdict.

Aghamore pensioner died of self-neglect

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Aghamore pensioner died of self-neglect
Inquest: The discovery of a woman’s decomposing remains in the bedroom of her home in Aghamore last year was recalled at an extraordinary inquest in Westport yesterday (Monday).
The jury of six men and two women found that Agnes Lyons, of Carrownedan, Aghamore, Ballyhaunis, died on August 13, 2002, as a result of self-neglect. The verdict came after a hearing where some light was shed on the reclusive lifestyle of the deceased.
Ms Lyons lived in the family home with her sister, Mary Ellen, and brother Michael (Sonny) since she returned from England in the Sixties. At first she had attended Mass in the local church and could be seen cycling around the district but gradually became more and more reclusive.
Her health had been failing for a number of years but at no time did she request any medical assistance. She spent most of her time in the bedroom she shared with her sister and they only moved into the rest of the house when their brother was out working on the farm.
Mr John O’Dwyer, coroner, said that both their brother and the local community were available to assist the sisters in every way but they resisted all offers in order to protest their reclusive existence. He called on members of the media and public to look on Agnes Lyons’ death in a compassionate rather than judgemental way,
Outlining the circumstances that led to the discovery of Agnes Lyons’ body, Michael ‘Sonny’ Lyons said that he had little or no contact with his sisters for a number of years until he found Mary Ellen sick in the bathroom at approximately 11am on August 4, 2003. He went to find Agnes in order to get help but got a shock when he opened her bedroom door.
“I said I would get Agnes and went to the bedroom to rouse her. I pushed in the door but when I saw what was inside I got an awful shock and pulled back quickly. That was the first time I had been inside the girls’ room for about 20 years,” he said.
He phoned the local doctor’s surgery where the family were registered patients and told the nurse on duty, Mrs Moira Noone that his sister, Mary Ellen, was very ill and he thought his other sister, Agnes, was dead.
“I asked him why did he think she was dead and he replied that he went to her bedroom door and called her and called her and got no answer,” Mrs Noone said.
She immediately phoned West Doc where a Triage nurse, Ms Elizabeth Watson, was put in contact with Mr Lyons. She told the hearing that ‘Sonny’ was in a state of shock.
“He was distressed and upset and gave me the impression that both sisters were dead in the house. I tried to encourage him to go into the house in case they were unconscious and they’d be safer on their sides but he said he was frightened and refused to go in.”
Nurse Watson then contacted Dr Ken Keane, a Ballyhaunis GP and he arrived at the Lyons’ residence just after 11.30am after instructing Nurse Watson to notify the ambulance service and the gardai.
He told the inquest that he met Sonny Lyons outside the house and inside on the floor of the bathroom he found Mary Ellen in a shocked and distressed state.
“I asked her where her sister was but she was unable to tell me. I then went to a bedroom up the hallway. The light was poor as the curtains were drawn and the room was in a mess with cartons, papers and tins strewn all over the floor. The deceased was lying on her back in the double bed in a decomposed skeletal state and I brought one of the gardai into the room to show him where the deceased lay.”
In his statement Dr Keane said that in his opinion Ms Lyons had been dead for a number of months.
Garda John Commons said that he went to the bedroom with Dr Keane and he described what he saw.
“The room was in general disarray with rubbish strewn all over the floor. There was one window in the room and the curtains were drawn so no natural light entered the room. There was an electrical light fitting but there was no bulb in it. Agnes Lyons was lying on the left side of the bed and it was obvious that she had been dead for some time.”
Garda Michael John Connor also gave evidence of the scene in the room.
“The remains were fully clothed and seemed to be in a very decomposed state. The room was very dark with the curtains drawn. It was practically full of all kinds of rubbish such as dirty and damp clothing, books, newspapers and cardboard boxes. Many of these boxes were filled with what appeared to be urine. Garda Commons and I had to remove many wheelbarrows of rubbish before the body of Ms Lyons could be removed from the room.”
The remains of the deceased were then removed to the morgue at Mayo General Hospital and later taken to University College Hospital in Cork City where a post mortem was carried out by Deputy State Pathologist, Dr Margaret Bolster on August 6, 2003. In her evidence Dr Bolster outlined the advanced state of decomposition that the body was in and said that entomological samples taken from the deceased indicated that death had occurred anywhere between three months and a year previously.
She went on to explain that a new technique where the examination of the body is allied to the diet of the deceased at the University of Reading gave the approximate date of death to be within 12 days of August 1, 2002. This was a groundbreaking technique which is very highly regarded she said. There was no evidence of any poison or trauma in the body but given the absence of any organs she had to record the cause of death as unknown.
Supt John O’Driscoll, the garda officer in charge of the investigation, said that the Lyons sisters lived in ‘a world apart’ from their brother and the wider community. Their secluded lifestyle was totally of their own choosing, he concluded.
“They purposely cut themselves off from those outside the house and had only the minimum of contact with their brother with whom they shared a house.
The evidence indicates that Agnes Lyons was in poor health for a considerable period of time and died in a bed she had not left for a long time.”
“Bizarre as it may seem the evidence indicates that Michael Lyons didn’t know that his sister Agnes had lain dead for approximately one year in the house in which he resided. There is also no evidence to suggest that Agnes or Mary Ellen were purposely deprived of medical treatment or care.
Mr. John O’Dwyer, Coroner then addressed the jury and indicated a number of options available to them. They returned once to ascertain whether they had to indicate a precise date of death and came back minutes later with a verdict of death from self-neglect on August 13th 2002 from an unknown cause.
Mr. O’Dwyer then sympathised with the extended Lyons family and commended the gardai for their professionalism in dealing with the case. He also hoped that the matter would now come to a close.
“Agnes’s death has caused great sorrow, grief, speculation, media intrusion, accusations, bewilderment and profound sadness. May we look on this death with compassionate rather than judgmental hearts. May she rest in peace,” he concluded.
