Search teams and emer gency aid from around the world poured into Turkiye and Syria on Tuesday as rescuers working in free- zing temperatures dug metimes with their bare hands through the remains of buildings flattened by a po- werful earthquake. The toll soared above 7.100 and wasstill expected to rise.

Unstable tangled piles of metal and concrete made the search efforts perilous, while freezing temperatures made them ever more urgent, as wor- ries grew about how long those trapped could survive in the cold. More than 8,000 people have been pulled from the de- bris in Turkiye alone, and so-me 380,000 have taken refuge in government shelters or hotels.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said 13 mil- lion of the country's 85 million were affected in some way and declared a state of emer- gency in 10 provinces for three months. AGENCIES

A horrific photograph of an execution in eastern Europe during the second world war

A horrific photograph of an execution in eastern Europe during the second world war can be seen in Holocaust archives and museums around the world. But who are the killers, who are the victims, who took it - and why? Janina Struk felt compelled to investigate Two naked men stand on the edge of a pit, an older man several feet behind them, while a man and a boy, also naked, walk into the frame. Surrounding them are seven perpetrators, some armed, some in uniform, some not. A uniformed man on the far right-hand side of the picture is standing on a mound of earth, presumably dug from the pit, seemingly directing proceedings. The caption reads: "Sniatyn - tormenting Jews before their execution. 11.V.1943." I first saw a copy of this image as I was filing through photographs in the Polish Underground Movement (1939-1945) Study Trust in west London. At the time I did not understand what I was looking at. I had never encountered a scene quite like it before. The pitiful...

In 2013, the body of 17-year-old Kendrick Johnson was found upside down in a standing

Why The Death Of Kendrick Johnson Remains Suspicious To This Day Kendrick Johnson was found dead in January 2013 in a rolled-up gym mat at Lowndes High School in Valdosta, Georgia. Was it a terrible accident or something more sinister? On January 11, 2013, the body of 17-year-old Kendrick Johnson was found in the most unusual of circumstances: upside-down and rolled up in a school gym mat. The mysterious death of Kendrick Johnson was initially ruled an accident by law enforcement, but his family was not convinced. Wikimedia CommonsSeventeen-year-old Kendrick Johnson’s body was inexplicably found upside-down in a rolled-up gym mat in 2013. The initial autopsy revealed that Johnson died due to “positional asphyxia” or that he suffocated as a result of being stuck upside-down in an enclosed space for an extended period of time. Just after 24 hours of being found, the investigators ruled Johnson’s death an accident. The Sheriff’s Department asserted that Johnson must have accidentally fall...

Marched to their deaths.

Marched to their deaths: Sickening ISIS slaughter continues as 250 soldiers captured at Syrian airbase are stripped then led to the desert for mass execution Sickening footage appears to show Islamic State militants parading around 250 captured soldiers through the desert in their underwear before they are killed and their bodies piled on the bare earth. An Islamic State fighter claimed the men were from the Syrian government's Tabqa air base which extremists seized on Sunday, potentially handing them warplanes, tanks, artillery and ammunition. The video, which has not been independently verified, is too graphic to be published in full. It begins by showing dozens of men being marched through the desert wearing only their underwear. It then fades to black, resuming with a pile of bloodied bodies stacked on top of one another. As the horrific footage progresses it pans slowly across a vast line of men who appear to be dead, and whose bodies have been laid out one by one. The line f...

Surgical repair of injury to the vulva by suturing.

Surgical repair of injury to the vulva by suturing. In obstetrics there is a common but particularly controversial procedure called an episiotomy. surgical repair of injury to the vulva by suturing. Episotomy is the surgical lengthening of the vaginal orifice through an incision in the perineum, made during labor with the aid of a scalpel or scissors and which requires suturing. The practice is indicated when there are difficulties with the delivery of the baby, in natural childbirth, and the first report of application of the practice dates from 1741. Episiorrhaphy is the name given to the suture made after cutting. The whole process is controversial, and many scholars in the area have been raised by the application of episiotomy only when strictly necessary. The indiscriminate use of the technique, as a way to forcefully accelerate labor, only results in unnecessary suffering for the woman. An episotomy takes about 6 weeks to heal, during which sexual intercourse is impossible. Altho...

Consider yourself lucky if you are reading this, you most likely not to have lived in a society with extreme judgements, sentences, and punishments. Back in the good old days if you did something wrong, for example stole a goat, chicken, Adultery, you were pretty much assured being handed a death sentence. In those days there was no hanging around on Death Row, contemplating the errors of your ways whilst waiting for some form of humane, painless death. Executions in the ancient history seems to be so barbaric and devices used were built with careful engineering to push the guilty to feel extreme and prolonged pain before death. The forms of execution listed below really are so barbaric that you might question your faith in human nature. 1. Blowing from the gun. With the invention of the cannon came this wonderfully imaginative way of executing enemy combatants. The basic method was to tie the unfortunate victim to the barrel of a cannon and fire it. Horrific as this sounds I imagine ...

Beria cried like a baby when he heard he was going to be executed

Beria and Stalin Lavrentiy Pavlovich Beria, is a person for whom the world even if it wished in a moment of lucid embrace, would find itself with an impossible task to show sympathy for. Beria in his last moments, pleaded for his own life, it was ironic as he had been in charge of the NKVD the predecessor of the KGB, and he had personally overseen hundreds of thousands of deaths if not millions. Much of what the world knows about Beria are the horrific deeds he committed. It is likely much of his reputation has been made worse, but this is not to say that he was not instrumental in committing war crimes. His actions included acts of depravity against women, and their murder while head of the NKVD as well. Beria had not just committed crimes but been part of a system he had a major role in creating. The Soviet Union became a state which could not even exist without constant fear of arrests, accusations, torture, forced confessions and death, though these elements are not unique to it al...

My Husband Ridiculed My Postpartum Figure at a Work Event – His Boss Confronted Him the Following Day

My name is Claire, and I would like to share a poignant chapter from my life, which began with deep personal humiliation but evolved into an unexpected journey of empowerment and new opportunities. This transformation unfolded during and after a corporate event at my husband Tim’s boss’s luxurious residence—an evening that was meant to be filled with merriment but instead became a pivotal turning point in my life due to a thoughtless comment made by my husband. As we arrived at the opulent venue, the grandeur of the setting and the elegant attire of the guests heightened my anxiety. Despite wearing my best dress, I felt painfully self-conscious about my postpartum body, having given birth just three months prior. Tim seemed particularly eager to introduce me to his colleagues and their spouses, perhaps hoping to impress his boss. The atmosphere inside was vibrant, with guests engaging in lively conversations while enjoying fine wine and gourmet delicacies. As I attempted to mingle...
