HEAVIEST BABY IN WORLD

A 19-year-old mother, named only as Nandini gave birth to world’s heaviest baby girl in India. Nandini who weighs 14.5 stone and is 5ft 9 gave birth to her daughter via C-Section and the baby’s weight was at 15 pounds (6.8kg), the size of 2 babies. Doctors who attended to teen-mom called her child a miracle daughter born without complications.

One of the doctors, Venkatesh Raju told local media, “I believe she is not only the heaviest baby born in India but heaviest baby girl ever born in the world.” So the gynecologist who delivered the baby, Poornima Manu a colleague to Raju, said the child who didn’t display signs of newborn obesity or showed no high sugar levels. Manu said, “She does not have health issues like irregular sugar levels or thyroid and is breathing well.”

In 2014 the world’s heaviest female new born was Carisa Rusack, who weighed 14 pounds and five ounces (6.49kg) at the time of her birth in Massachusetts. The world’s heaviest baby boy born to Carmelina Fedele in Italy in 1955 weight of 22 pounds and eight ounces (10.2kg). Fedele’s son is still the world’s heaviest baby in Guinness World Record books regardless of gender.

BOUNDARIES IN WORKPLACE

Boundaries in the workplace changes the relaxed jovial atmosphere of banter, harmless flirting and home from home environment. Rapid changes caused by numerous allegations means people are more careful, cautious, almost robotic interaction. Avoidance of appearance of evil drives workplace not to create false suspicion and gossip. Lobbyist flew solo from Texas to Washington to press case on the Hill, leaving behind the female associate who did much of the work on issue. Recognizes decision to fly alone a lost opportunity for his talented young co-worker. But right with goings on is not willing to risk business trip alone with a woman even if caution seems to women as discrimination. Recent wave of sexual misconduct allegations against some prominent men changed dynamic of relationships between wo/men in the workplaces across the country. Shifts towards discussions of what’s not okay at work but toward silent exclusion as quiet backlash the #MeToo movement. In Chicago, technician Kathern Caldwell sees blank stares on men when the topic of sexual misconduct comes up  worries that “men on job thinking, what’s wrong with women?” In Sacramento, a union leader struggles on how to handle man who calls her several times a day “to ask questions not really related to her work. “I know what to do if somebody touches me and says something awful but subtle things are worse so you can’t control it,” said Joyce Thomas-Villaronga, president of local United Auto Workers chapter. She reported her fears to a supervisor and stopped answering the man’s calls. He, in turn, complained about her being unresponsive. “People are finding their way in a new system,” she said.

In Silicon Valley, the chief executive of a company asked the human resources manager what to do if the undercurrent tension of issues of sexual misconduct is salient. Stop having dinners with female employees, he was advised. Stop having dinners with any employees. Lunches are okay, dinners no way, HR told him. Another investor said colleagues have cancelled one-on-one meetings with female entrepreneurs. Some men have taken to comparing own new approach to Vice President Pence, who said he does not dine alone with any woman but his wife. “My research over the past couple of years showed men hesitant to have one-on-one meetings, go to lunch or go on business trips with a woman,” said Kim Elsesser, a psychologist at the University of California at Los Angeles author of Sex and the Office. It’s gotten worse so needs to educate everyone in the workplace about what not to do and going out to lunch in group is important not to segregate work by gender, that’s discrimination.” The #MeToo movement focuses on “legalistic solutions than the practical ones,” said Johnny C. Taylor Jr., president of the Society for Human Resource Management with 285,000 members in the HR field.Taylor said, chief executives of “major companies told us now limiting travel between genders,” telling men they may no longer take female colleagues on the business trips or share rental cars with women. “That’s legalistic not realistic,” Taylor said. “Told a CEO, ‘How does that prevent male-on-male relationships?’ It is really impractical. We need to change the culture, not create rules people will ignore.” Although national discussions about sexual misconduct focused on a few highly public industries Hollywood, media and politics the high-profile cases sparked conversations in factories and in offices people spend their workdays. And global conversations about sexual harassment and assault, the Post spoke to people about hashtag meant. The fire engine heads back to Station 501 after intense call, Lt. Eric Pena and his fellow firefighters in Manchaca, Tex. outside of Austin, debrief on what they’ve seen by trade coarse banter to ease stress. “Oh man, you looked scared,” one of the guys will say. A rookie will get teased.” It’s “all fun and games,” a way to cope with the job’s daily traumas, Pena said. But with news about sexual harassment Pena is thinking twice about who else is present when jokes fly. The firefighters are men, Pena said but female medics sometimes around. “We make our own judgment, ‘If okay to talk the way you do to your crew if other people around not really sure of their personality said Pena, 40. Men on shift “understand if someone new in room to shut mouth.”

Boundaries now at Michael Teixido’s otolaryngology practice in Wilmington, Del., annual’s holiday party featured joke lampooning doctors changed. Using animated templates from JibJab comedy website, pasted the heads of colleagues on a “Rocky Horror Picture Show” scene or Cossack dance line. This year stopped as colleagues voted to scrap the feature physicians’ faces on the Chippendale dancer bodies. No one complained, but mood had changed. Definitely period heightens awareness said Teixido, of new thoughtfulness he laments missing chance to let staff laugh at bosses. “This is real shift occurring in trenches of life.”Change has come for women and men, women feel emboldened to speak out against inappropriate behaviour and men think twice about what’s acceptable at work. In discussions across country, Taylor, the HR executive, said he found “every man spoken to is afraid. They don’t know what to do and lists things millennial some women don’t want to see anymore, like opening doors for them or pulling out chairs. If a group of goes out, how do you know if a woman likes chivalry of opening a door and the woman who doesn’t?”Tracy Wilson sees caution and confusion daily as ­general manager of the Red Velvet and Bakers & Baristas bakeries in the District. “A lot of males definitely feel self-conscious so act more guarded,” she said. “It’s a shift, so the critical mass has been reached.”Pivotal moment made work life easier and harder, Wilson said: When a female employee confided recently she’d was a the victim of sexual assault was grateful she felt she could talk about it because of everything going on.” But Wilson has seen people pull back from once-casual and harmless behaviours. Workplaces, comes down to awkward decision of all things, hugs. Wilson’s husband, travels a lot for work, used to hug colleagues he hadn’t seen in a while, but said, “there’s a cautiousness to have. You don’t want your personality to be construed wrong way so pull back on hug. The pendulum swung opposite way.too much. All going to be walking on eggshells for a while.” Pena, the firefighter calls “a hugging relationship” with female medic on his shift confident nothing changed in their work-sibling connection still hugging. But when beloved colleague walked into office training session then Thomas Villaronga the union official, stepped toward young man mentored to stop from embracing him as she normally would. But stretched her hand. She wasn’t worried about his reaction so crowd of people around them. A too-friendly greeting seems to carry more risk than it used to. “Typically didn’t think about those things, but now steps back,” she said. What’s happening good, but has chilling effect on camaraderie. I think this is going to be new normal.As Sandy Sayre, a nurse in Roanoke, Va., discussed sexual misconduct allegations against Matt Lauer, as co-host of NBC’s “Today,” with a surgeon colleague, told her he could no longer give her friendly hugs shared over a 10-year friendship. It blows things far out of proportions,” replied Sayre, 50, senior director at the Carilion Clinic, cardiovascular surgery. “It’s sad gotten to level afraid to give a friendly hug because of what others did she said. “I feel bad for victims gone over the line. Everybody’s afraid to do anything but makes sure society does not lose ability to connect safely.” And Taylor, HR executive, encourages the employers to “prepare women for real world. Life is rough so protect self from rough language in corporate office?” He said balance between over-regulating work life and protecting women from abusive behavior and mandatory sexual harassment training if necessary. Open discussion of practical solutions and the fraternization policies affect a realistic work place people are going to date,” Taylor said. His organization prefers to focus on disclosure: “It’s not you can’t date, report it. The organization allows you to date in exchange, you agree to tell if a relationship goes south.” Some companies are responding to new focus on misconduct tightening restrictions on contacts between men and women, especially on business travel.Make sure no one has undue advantage, so start with professionalism,” said Jenn Scheck, vice president human resources at Focus on Family, the Colorado-based Christian ministry.  Important to have strong structures to say certain kinds of relationships may not be appropriate.” Focus on the Family prohibited 600 men and ­women from sharing rental cars or staying at the same hotel if a man and a woman are only people from company on trip. “Christian organizations hire like-minded people so understands we operate on biblical principles,” Scheck said. Fraternization rules or mandatory training don’t seem to improve culture of workplaces, Elsesser said. “There’s really no evidence doing anything that’s helping at all,” the psychologist said. So sees backlash against #MeToo in form of “sex partition,” invisible divider so men refrain from interacting with women so inhibiting mentor relationships clogging paths to advancement. Elsesser remains hopeful current debate can morph into national discussion consent so to come up with a way to teach people to know when it’s okay to move in for kiss.”New efforts in playing field include move by the female venture capitalists in Silicon Valley encourage female entrepreneurs for separate offices. Start-up incubator YCombinator created informal blacklist of investors known harassers.A veteran Broadway actor, Christopher Gurr, who just concluded a leading role in “The Lion King,” said heartened to hear his peers trying to learn from the harassment cases that rocked the film side of their industry. “There’s a lot of joking now in large groups: ‘Oh, can we still do that? Can we still do this?’ ” Gurr said. “In small conversations checking if doing something did not want to do. So grey areas pervade businesses where safe intimacy is vital to success.“When into an audition going to be attractive, ‘seductive’ Gurr said. “It’s a confusing world stepping from one industry to another open workers’ eyes to practices that seem to be tolerated in one place but rare in another. Melissa Boigon moved from Manhattan finance firm to software start-up in New Orleans shifts from business where sexual misconduct rampant to one people get on quietly and professionally. Boigon, 26 said felt pressured to dress, behave certain way in finance. Now wears what she wants so harassment nonissue, attributes the difference to generational divide not new consciousness. At her old job, older men commented on her body and she stayed silent, even though she was outraged. Her new office has a very young workforce, which she said makes it easier to speak up if someone behaves inappropriately. “I have been the woman in the room who has taken it and not said anything, just to move my career forward,” she said, “and I feel a lot of guilt about that. I won’t be doing that anymore. I like to think we’ve reached a tipping point. Though I do wonder if it will never fully change until there are just as many women as men in power.” Elizabeth Dwoskin in San Francisco contributed to this report.

VEGAN’S ANTI MEAT RALLY

Vegans stage anti meat protest rally to confront meat eaters in the restaurant in Australia. Vegan activists went into steakhouse to express their disapproval of diners eating meat. Diners were ‘very emotionally upset’ by the encounter after storming the busy restaurant to stage an anti-meat rally. The dozens of protesters, some armed with pro-animal placards and megaphones, chanted: ‘it’s not food, it’s violence’ after invading Rare Steakhouse in Melbourne Australia. Diners seemed embarrassed surrounded by demonstrators although some were said to be ‘very emotionally upset’ as a result. Protest was staged at about 6.30pm, Saturday by campaigners from ‘Melbourne Cow Save The Animal Liberation Army’ and the ‘Direct Action Everywhere.’Around 35 activists stormed the Rare Steakhouse in Melbourne. Campaigners from the ‘Melbourne Cow Save Animal Liberation Army’ and the ‘Direct Action Everywhere.’Diners found themselves surrounded by protesters. Footage from the rally was posted on the group’s Facebook page as police were called to disperse activists from inside the restaurant. A post on Melbourne Cow Save page reads: This evening, Direct Action Everywhere in Melbourne, & Melbourne Cow Save Animal Liberation Army was out in full force! “35 activists disrupted Melbourne steakhouse to speak up for the animals where their dead bodies was consumed. In order to create change in society, we must challenge current belief systems and force people to take side oppression or justice, cruelty or compassion. “There is no humane way to kill someone who does not want to die. “Always speak up loud and strong for the sentient beings who are oppressed. They need us to.”Some activists armed with placards and megaphones entered the restaurant for some time. Protests also held outside and so then the police were called to disperse them. A manager at the restaurant told Daily Mail Australia staff were powerless to stop activists after trying at first to stop them at the door. She said: “There was one or two ring leaders who had the microphones and they were very loud, shouting the same propaganda over and over again. “We spoke to people while it was happening and tried to calm the situation and said police were on their way.” The manager said some diners were ‘very emotionally upset’ by the stunt while others were able to ‘laugh it off. She added one of the female activist threatened “we will be back” as she was led away from the steakhouse. Venue manager Arryanne McIntosh described it as very upsetting situation for their customers and staff. She said: “There were a couple of tables very upset, to be honest, one table in particular was very emotional. “We did the best we could to calm the people, give them comfort that police were coming.”And police in Victoria confirmed they were called to rally and said protesters “left premises peacefully when asked to do so by the managers of the venue. No arrest made. Clashes over meat-eating is also globally documented from those who see a cow as idol gods to those just animal rights campaigners. Interesting phenomenon difference of opinion is freely expressed by those who want to defend animals. Yet the Bible clearly gives verses on eating meat and how to treat animals, the sacred blood belonging to GOD. Animal parts are dedicated first to God the owner and then the rest to be eaten. Bible verses confirm animals specifically created as food and others not permitted to eat. A list of types of animals or fishes listed in the Bible is prolific. So people are given choice to eat or not to eat meat although moderation is recommended to avoid health problems. Decision to confront meat eaters inside a legitimate licensed steakhouse or restaurant from the point of view of the law can be trespassing. Is it worth the future reputation of zealous people to be involved in actions that can lead to criminal record if persistent in such actions? Freedom of choice options available is to avoid eating meat if one chooses to do so. So does one’s personal choice require insisting everyone else be like you? Is it lawful Biblically to go about insisting all people eat or do not eat meat? Is inciting others in an online chat room to join protests influenced by personal tastes realistically achieve the intended change imposed on others? Is this the best approach to educate people on harmful toxic residues from strong antibiotics, inoculations, fertilisers in the grass eaten by people. The vegan cause can be good to educate people on the benefits of veganism or vegetarianism but their process on this ocassion is sincerely wrong so not done in the right manner. Plants and fruits eaten are ‘killed by plucking, uprooting or cutting them too. Bible says killing animals for food in Christianity is right of believers. Knowing this means alright for Christians to eat meat because God has given animals to humanity for food. Jesus said that all foods are clean so the Christian can eat meat. Leviticus 17 tells Christians passages show rules of killing and eating animals. The LORD GOD said to Moses, “Speak to Aaron and give this command to Israelites: Don’t eat meat with blood in it or eat blood of animals.  Bible says eating meat must follow the standard approved procedure required. So Bible verses about eating meat says “He who slaughters ox is like one who kills a man, sacrifices a lamb, breaks a dog’s neck or presents grain. God told Moses to instruct Hebrews to slaughter lambs and eat as sacrifice to mark wall or doors to prevent death angel from killing them in Egypt. Deuteronomy 12:15 says Nevertheless, slaughter your animals, eat all of you if ceremonially clean or unclean eat meat. Told to kill and eat the flesh in your gate whatsoever your soul desires. In Acts 10:13 voice of God told Peter, “Get up, Peter. Kill and eat three times. The voice said, “Get up, Peter; kill and eat animals shown you. And there came a voice again to him: “Rise, Peter; kill and eat” in the Berean Study Bible. Leviticus 22:8 says do not eat anything found dead or torn by wild animals. One cause of Ebola was dead or dying monkies eaten carried diseases they were immune to. Never eat meat of an animal died naturally since you do not know the cause of death if infected or killed by wild animals. It will make those who eat dead animals unclean. I am the LORD God says in Tanakh 1917. As meat eaten by animal eaters goes into their body so vegans eating fruits and vegetables goes into thrir body. Does superman, Babe or Disney personification of animals make them best friends of people so not food?This confirms God empowers the meat eaters to kill animal not eat dead ones  of itself or torn. The Bible says at times people withdraw from food, meat etc. if fasting. The bible says God gave Adam & Eve command to eat fruits and veggies but also told to offer meat sacrifices at times to God so had animal skins used to cover body after sin. And when Cain offered only fruits and vegetables from his produce was rejected by God but accepted animal offering of Able. Jacob and Esau offered animal sacrifices too to God. After flood of Noah’s day, God allowed people to eat meat and good to care for the animals kept in the Ark. A popular story well-known in Bible is Abraham offered lamb in place of Isaac. Solomon offered thousands of sheep and ox to God so impressed HE asked Solomon to ask for anything he wants. Solomon asked only for wisdom so God added riches beyond measure to him. So it is good to express strong passion for belief or stand up for one’s rights as long as it is not violating others rights too.

DRINKING ENOUGH WATER

Drinking enough water is extremely important to survival of life. 75% of the human body comprises of the water so essential for circulation of blood and transportation of nutrients, minerals to body cells and tissues to enable them to function properly. People think water is tasteless, boring, too simple, considered cheap to be seen drinking plain water. In modern times fizzy drinks and juices introduced early to children as babies affects their taste buds so plain water is tasteless to them compared to the water sweetened carbonated option. Changing from drinking fizzy drinks or water containing addictive sugar means people experience also unpleasant withdrawal symptoms. This sudden change from sugar drinks to just plain water is very difficult to the taste buds. The addictive sugar in juice, water caused tooth decay especially in young children given such drinks from birth. Cumulative impact of sugar over years is noticed as brown colouring of teeth. Despite the labels insisting there is no “added sugar” and in the adverts on TV, fetch tap water or natural spring well and river water and ask why they do not taste as sweet as your ‘no added’ sugar water in bottles. Alternative sugar like Saccharine is sweet too so not any better. Read up on chemical effects of the Saccharine on Google or you give to educate yourself on its carcinogenic effect on the body. The colourful appeal and the powerful statements printed on the water bottle is tantalising. So as soon as you see is multibillion company advert on billboard of actor drinking splashing you feel thirsty immediately and drive through to the nearest shop to buy the exact bottled water. Research as proved this psychological mind control advert is so effective consultants are hired to design adverts and billboards. Of course in dangerous polluted regions, there is not natural clean spring water available so must depend on bottled water. The taps can contain other chemical toxins in some areas so people advised not to drink tap water. Yet some companies literally fill bottles with tap water sold to public in some cases. Convenience of buying bottled water means disposable so not carried around from home. There again lies greatest source of pollution to flora and fauna on earth and seas from plastic waste. Plastics from petroleum is a by-product so toxic if burnt contains styrene which is harmful to the body and the environment. The waste from plastic water bottles used only once and other waste from plastics discarded are not biodegradable so remain on earth for over 300 years minimum. This is so serious it is floating around in gaseous matter seen from space. This means the need to drink enough water is causing pollution on the other. Ever walked about and seen discarded bottles of juice or water barely drink on the street or on the trains and buses. Rolling from one turn of the bus to another left on the floor. The bins provided everywhere in public are not used or too full to hold extra litter. Therefore drinking enough water is a complex set of problems. And some people blatantly say, they do not like drinking water.’Research shows it is not a choice to opt out of drinking plain water. It is lack of understanding essential process of use of water in the body for life existence depends on water to live healthy lives. Research shows damage of not drinking enough water in body. Others assume fizzy drinks contain water so enough to hydrate body. However, E chemicals in sweetened fizzy carbonated water is a source of great concern especially to the young children in formative early years. The chemicals affect brain development and cause ADHD impairment that is not reversible. Yet continue to give such a synthetic chemically infused coloured water to children. Years ago children drank only milk throughout the day or water. Thanks to Margaret Thatcher cancelling free milk to children the gap is filled with fizzy drinks linked to the epidemic of autism and other related illnesses unheard before drastic change. That decision plus junk foods cause the younger ones to suffer from a complex spectrum of behaviours associated with toxic food. To ask people to drink plain water has business venture impact so in the interest of such companies people do not drink plain unsweetened water. What service would such a company be offering if all refill reusable bottles from home to last throughout the day. But its more convenient for minimalist trendy younger generation to look aesthetically always as if on a catwalk. So this means dragging about reusable water bottles filled from home or home-made meals is perceived as old-fashioned grannies style of living. Despite buying a bottled water some do not remember to drink still required amount of recommended plain water between 5-7 litres per day spread out. So reflected in uncalled for headaches or dizziness, pins or needles symptoms, fog head, dark urine. Many seek medical advise and the symptoms treated but often underlying root causes ignored. So it seems almost a joke to ask someone if they are drinking enough water daily. The last thing on their mind is a simplistic question of drinking plain water. It is considered not sophisticated enough or by drinking fizzy sweetened juice, water assume they are hydrated. It is also thought drinking coffee, tea or alcohol containing sugar hydrates since these liquid fluids contain water but too much sugar dehydrates hydrate body so not equal to the plain water. Beverages contain water but must still drink plain water to be hydrated. Extreme cases of chemical reaction of E chemicals in the body dehydrated form concrete doctors chisel from body using power tools for building construction. Take care of body to drink water daily at regular intervals.Drinking plenty of plain water too is so essential in the winter months when not sweating profusely like in a hot summer days. Understand drinking 2 glasses of water each morning after waking up before breakfast meals cleans the toxic wastes from the body to keep cancer at bay. So recommended by the doctors to patients with severe dehydration if not causes sepsis built up in body from not flashing out body toxins by drinking of water regularly. It sounds altruistic and so obvious yet so many people died from dehydration. So did not associate essential health needs with drinking water daily. Circulation of blood and vital oxygen to the brain to help it function fails to cause heart attack so appreciate and value water. Do not waste it even if blessed to have it superabundance others have no natural water source so it becomes liquid gold to sustain their lives, livestock and their agriculture. Next time about to leave tap water running while brushing teeth or washing cup or spoonthink twice about these consequences and the damages to the environment globally. Plastic waste is found thousands of miles away from the original source in distant oceans by trapping, choking whales, fishes, birds and entering food chain of human lives. The question is this really worth it to use so many disposable bottles? How about refilling reusable bottles from big huge 10 litre bottle if on the go to save lives from toxic waste on planet? The easiest way to know if you are drinking enough plain water and fluid is to look at the colour of your urine. If drinking enough water your urine will be clear or pale yellow. A darker yellow means you are not drinking enough water.

MIRACLE CURE FOR AUTISM?

Deadly super-strength bleach is sold to UK parents by evil quacks as cure for autism. Desperate families attempting to medicate their sick children with the discredited “miracle” cure marketed and sold on at least one British-based website. Its dangerous bleach solution, Miracle Mineral Solution (MMS) sold on UK websites. Kids are forced to drink the Miracle Mineral Solution (MMS) while others are given enemas with the solution to purge “parasites” reports The Sunday People. The bleach is a mix of sodium chloride and citric acid powder Food Standards Agency (FSA) has warned can cause vomiting and diarrhoea and damage to gut. And experts and campaigners are warning that the solution could kill comparing use of MMS to playing, ‘Russian roulette’ as liquid is promoted by likes of ex-drug addict and vlogger Danny Glass and US-based Genesis II Church. YouTube clips promoting MMS claim it cures variety of illnesses and disorders like AIDS, diabetes, vertigo. Speaking to the Sunday People, expert Dr Jeff Foster said: “Autism is a neuro-developmental disease not amenable to any form of tablet treatment. It’s developed in the womb or in the early stages of life. “You just can’t reverse it so anyone claiming that does not understand the condition. When you have extreme measures like this ‘cure’ of disease it’s a roulette game. Eventually someone will die. It’s only a matter of time. The Sunday People came across Facebook group used by mothers who have given their autistic children MMS. One woman wrote that her son “cried really hard” when he was given his first enemas with the dangerous solution before saying: “Some mean people said it’s bleach and harmful for kids. But it’s helped so many!”Emma is campaigning to get practice made illegal in the UK. The news outlet also came across a Manchester-based website which sold MMS as a “water purification and ­citric activator” for around £30. Last August, The Sun Online reported that a mum was being investigated by cops after allegedly using the potentially fatal bleach enema on her young son to “cure” autism. The woman, from Cheshire, was reported to police after appearing to give away the method for the dangerous procedure on secret Facebook group. The group costs £60 for membership, set up by parents thinking autism is caused by parasites. Parents post images of parasites leaving their children after the risky treatment administered. The Autism campaigner Emma Dalmayne infiltrated group and discovered mum from Cheshire appears to confess to using CD on her young son.Posts from the mum appear to show her admitting to administering “25 drops a day” to her son – but becoming worried when he “seemed weak” and wouldn’t get out of bed. Emma, an autistic mum-of-six is calling on government to ban treatment and has launched at petition calling for the “cures” to be made illegal, which has more than 54,000 signatures. She said: No parents will admit to doing this to the children publicly. So parents are so ashamed of doing it in the first place. “The biggest problem is that the government don’t do anything about this. This is not illegal yet to use CD on autistic children but needs to be.”

ALWAYS BE AHEAD OF TIME

Woman dumped by her husband-to-be because she was too late and missed her £12k wedding. Nichola Tuohy blames a nightmare list of disasters for missing her dream wedding and accidentally leaving her fiancé at the altar. The bride was so late that she missed her dream wedding. Mum of three accidentally jilted fiancé Darren Ferne at the altar and made it in time for the reception so where he stormed out on her. Nichola and fiancé Darren Ferne are no longer together because Nichola blames it on a catalogue of problems of the make-up disaster, forgetting daughter’s flower girl dress and bridesmaid drop out for missing £12,000 wedding planned for 17 months. She said: “I wish rehearsal the night before was the real thing. “It was perfect and now we’d be man and wife. “It was my fault. I got so overwhelmed with things to do on day so meltdown. I feel like I have lost everything.”Overwhelmed mother of three went to the reception, after missing ceremony, with her dress in the boot of the car. So Groom Darren, 40, a customer services adviser, said: “We would probably still be together now if our wedding hadn’t been ruined. “It’s not the kind of thing you can get over easily.” The couple met online in September 2014 and Darren proposed five weeks later. Nichola said: “I was in love and blown away, but it was too soon. So when he asked again three months later, on Valentine’s Day 2015, said yes. He was my perfect man.”The bridge panicked when she realised there were no seat belts in the vintage car she was supposed to ride to church in with youngest children. Her children Alexander, 20, Grace Isabella, eight, and seven-year- old Max. Both planned their wedding for 80 guests on July 9, 2016. So the day before wedding, care worker Nichola, from Hornchurch, Essex, took her place next to Darren at the church to rehearse ceremony. Nichola said: “When vicar said, ‘You may kiss the bride’ and Darren kissed me, I felt ecstatic. “It had gone perfectly and the best part was we got to do it all again for real the next day.” The make-up session booked at a local department store took longer than she accounted for. Nichola said: “The next morning I woke with a huge panic about how much I had to do.” First on her list was make-up, booked at a local department store but it took longer than she had allowed for. She said: “When it was done it didn’t look like me, wanted to cry. I felt like an extra from Towie.” With 90 minutes to go, she rushed home to wash it off and do it herself. When she got home she found her parents and two youngest children still there.Nichola accidentally left Darren at alter, after meeting online in September 2014. She said her parents, did not approve of the marriage so decided they were not going. She packed the kids into the car to drive them to the hotel to get ready with her. But a payment issue meant there was a delay getting into her room. Nichola said: “I was in tears at this stage as I could see the clock ticking so knew I didn’t have long to get myself and kids ready.” Finally inside the room, realised her daughter’s flower girl outfit was left at home. She said: “I started crying, had a bare face, no make-up on, no dress on, no flower girl dress and half an hour to get ready.” She got text her bridesmaid could not make it because her children were sick. She called Darren in tearsWhen she called Darren to tell him all the problems, he told her to hurry up and get to the church. Nichola said: “He was at the church with eldest son. “Our guests were already getting seated, and when he told me to hurry up so stressed me even more.” The bride-to-be took her dress outside, intending to put it on at the church, but realised the vintage wedding car waiting to transport her did not have any seat belts. She said: “It was supposed to be taking me, but had kids she couldn’t put in a car with no seat belts. I was in such a panic. Then realised she’d missed her wedding Nichola said her ‘heart sank’ “I knew I had to calm myself down before driving my Ford Focus. The church was 20 miles away and she had 30 minutes to get there. Nichola said: “I knew I didn’t have a hope in hell unless I drove like Lewis Hamilton. “I had a wave of panic and, exhausted, lay down defeated. “My heart sank when I realised I’d missed own wedding, jilted my groom without meaning to. Nichola drove home to get her daughter’s flower girl dress and made her way straight to reception with her wedding dress still in boot. Nichola said: “Darren was livid. He’d been left standing in front of the guests, pleading with the vicar to wait but there were more weddings taking place.”Nichola and Darren broke up, and she says they both know the split was about the wedding. The DJ asking for payment was the final straw and Darren walked out. She went to their honeymoon suite and texted Darren, begging him to talk it over. She said: “He did come but was quiet and distant. “He fell asleep and I spent the night crying.” They decided to stay together but disastrous wedding day hung over them like a dark cloud. Nichola said: “In the end, there was no big showdown we just drifted further apart and split up. “I knew it’s because of the wedding and so did he. I just hope that one day he can forgive me.” Always be ahead of time for all schedules with plenty of extra time to deal with any unforseen circumstances. Wedding is extremely stressful so needs support of friends and family. Although that day may be special particularly for a bride it does not give licence to be consumed by the occasion or become rude bridezilla. Remember, people met on the way to the altar are the same people met on the way down from the altar. So be very careful of how you treat people around you especially friends, family members, colleagues who often pick up the pieces of a broken heart. Marriage relationship extends beyond wedding day so do not be preoccupied with the dream fantasy of glamourised celebration for one day only. It is good to enjoy the day but you need vital witnesses present to support you so respect, value and include them too. Delegate tasks be humble enough to accept people’s best efforts perfectionist madness ruins day for all. And unless exclusively marrying yourself as some do then take into consideration all who sacrifice precious time and own money to spend the day with you. You will soon be needing them when the real marital life sets in, so don’t burn your bridges.

 

IS VINTAGE TOY/S HARMFUL?

Vintage secondhand plastic toys are said to pose risks including Lego that can harm children with toxic chemicals. Researchers of untested toys from 70s and 80s would fail to meet modern safety standards. Lego bricks is among old plastic toys researchers have found to contain the dangerous levels of chemicals. Research done by University of Plymouth shows second-hand toys would fail modern safety check. Toy dinosaurs among plastic toys found to have dangerous levels of chemicals. They tested 200 different toys, including the dinosaur figurines and dolls, and found that over 10 per cent contained high levels of at least one hazardous element. They checked for nine of these elements toxic in low amounts and can be collected in a child’s body when, for example they put toys in their mouths. Children are particularly at risk from the toxins because their organs are still developing. Dr Andrew Turner, who led the study, said: “Second-hand toys are an attractive option to families because can be inherited directly from friends or relatives or obtained cheaply and readily from charity stores, flea markets and the internet.Researchers found second-hand toys can be toxic and damage the children’s development. The attractive cost and convenience, recyclability of previously used toys has the potential to create a legacy of chemical contamination for younger children.” He added: “Lego bricks from 70s and 80s are big fail.” He explained toys not tested then so would fail to meet today’s safety standard. The scientists from Plymouth collected toys from homes, nurseries, charity shops in the Devon city. Toys made of largely out of unpainted plastic moulded figures, construction toys and building blocks, games, puzzles, and jewellery found to have the hazardous elements. Levels less for activity toys, balls, marbles, yoyos, tools, letters, model cars, model trains, and bath toys. They published findings in journal of Environmental Science and Technology with the study believed to be the first of its kind.Lego bricks from the 70s and 80s would not meet modern safety standards. Roar Rude Trangbæk, spokesperson for Lego, said: “For old bricks, phased material out back in 1979 to 1981, so looking at bricks that are over 40-years-old. “You should not be concerned if you have old bricks in good shape, condition. Normal play should be okay. “If you do have old Lego bricks that are broken, you should stop using them and dispose of them.”

1ST HOME PAID DEBT FREE

Jennie Crockart proved, its impossible to just makes some serious sacrifices to own home paid for debt free. The 21-year-old, from Yate in Bristol, bought her first place independently a month after she turned 20. She paid £120,000. Jennie lives in her first home bought for £120,000. She said: “Growing up, my parents didn’t have lots of spare money but always told said that when I had my own job I could afford to buy whatever I liked. “Owning own home has always been important to me,” said Jennie. “If renting, you are just paying someone else’s mortgage. “So as soon as I started earning I started putting £50 aside here and there or more if I could manage it.”

Jennie had long-planned for property. At 17, she decided against A-levels and enrolled on a sales apprenticeship with furniture company Furnished Homes. Success came quickly: the teenager generated £500,000 in new business during her first three years. Crucially, she lived at home so that she could save. So yes, she found a good job near her parents’ house, which isn’t possible for everyone. She had to make concessions. “At that point started saving a lot more,” she explained. “Around £500 per month. Carried on working part-time in a pub alongside apprenticeship to supplement income. Bonus is bonus so put money away so savings quickly mounted up.”House needed full makeover as bought. After renovations the place is worth an extra £30,000. At 18, Jennie met with a mortgage consultant for the first time to get idea of what she could borrow and sort of deposit she would need. After that, things really got serious. At 19, she found a home she wanted to buy and put all efforts into raising remainder of her ten per cent deposit. Jennie said: “It was ‘eyes on the prize’. Admittedly at a point I didn’t go out that much.” Jennie bought a two-bedroom apartment in Yate. It needed a full makeover, which Jennie saw more an opportunity than a burden. After finally collecting the keys after her twentieth birthday a proud moment, she said she spent most of her free time around work painting and decorating. Thanks to her efforts, she believes the flat is now worth in excess of £150,000 – some £30,000 more than she paid. What advice would she give to other aspiring first-time buyers? “First of all, I see where I’m living as a start. It needed work; it’s not most expensive part of town, but I made those sacrifices because I’d rather own than rent. “I’d like to think I’ll move on in a couple of years.” She credits her decision to do an apprenticeship and so by not going to university helping her to get a financial head start over her peers. “People do not realise you can do apprenticeship in a sales role it’s not a common route into the industry,” she said. “But at 17, it was a great way to start out. “Knew enjoyed sales and confidence felt when you’re doing well. And I knew I didn’t need a degree to prove I could sell.”Jennie credits doing an apprenticeship for getting her started. The attraction drawn earning while she learns means she has never regretted her decision to leave formal education and train on the job. “At 20 I’m in the fortunate position of having no debt and I’ve become a homeowner at a time many young people are struggling to get on property ladder,” she said. Despite her choices, millennial Jennie said she hasn’t given up too much. She insists she maintains an active social life. And she managed a spot of travelling. Jennie’s saving to fund trip around America’s west coast, planned for later this year. Previously, she’s managed to see India, New York, Norway, Paris, and Austria. Jennie said: “Certainly don’t feel missed anything. It is starting career at a young age that is the best thing for her.

CROSSES OFF GREEK FOODS

Lidl airbrushed crosses on a church in Greek food packaging to be ‘religiously neutral.’ Greek food packages from Lidl once used an image of famous Anastasis Church in Santorini Greece with a cross on its summit is removed. Budget supermarket Lidl faced a backlash after airbrushing the Christian Cross symbol from packaging to “remain religiously neutral.” So German chain’s Greek food range did not feature image of Cross on a famous Anastasis Church in Santorini Greece, complete with world-renowned blue dome roof. Eagle-eyed customers spotted the packaging did not feature the Christian Cross that use to adorn the top of a blue dome building. Shoppers flocked to Lidl UK on Facebook page to express dismay and a disappointment over alteration of images. Daniel Novak wrote: “I’m highly disappointed in the company bending back over to cater to specific people. Why are you hiding the Cross in history? We learn from history so removing Cross in Photoshop causes past mistakes to be repeated again.”A famous Anastasis Church in Santorini Greece is a Christian Church with Cross at the top of it’s dome. Steve West said, “Why did you take crosses off the top of Greek churches in advertising? “Is there somebody you think will take offence? There is me, Greeks and many others. I definitely won’t be using you again if you don’t reverse this policy.” And Daisy Matthews wrote: “Why are you erasing the reality from a photo? “If these were products from Hindus, Sikhs, Jewish, or Muslim countries with their symbols depicted on them I wouldn’t have any problem buying them. “As a Christian I feel really hurt, discriminated against, upset and disappointed you have done this, if it is the case I won’t be shopping at your store anymore.” The ‘Eridanous’ range features Greek delicacies such as olive oil, Moussaka, yoghurt and gyros. Greek food packages in Lidl used  image of the famous Anastasis Church Cross in Santorini, Greece on its summit digitally removed. Customers pointed out some Halal meat products sold at Lidl appear to feature buildings with minarets part of Islamic religious architecture. To say “religiously neutral” is just lame excuse. Rows spread across Europe by shoppers in Belgium and Germany criticising the policy. Spokesman for Lidl UK said: “We sell highly popular Eridanous own-label range in Lidl stores across Europe over 10 years and design of packagings been through a number of updates. “We are extremely sorry for any offence caused by the most recent artwork and would like to reassure our customers that this is not an intentional statement. In light of this we will ensure feedback is taken into consideration redesigning a future packaging.” The Belgian European TV and radio station RTL, originally picked up this story after a reader noticed the packaging wrote in, was given different statement. “We avoid a use of religious symbols, we do not wish to exclude any religious beliefs,” it quoted a spokesman saying. “Our company respects diversity and this explains designs of packagings. RTL, following publication of the article, received a statement.”Our intention was never to shock,” said the supermarket’s spokesman.“We avoid use of a religious symbol on Lidl packagings to maintain neutrality in all religions. “If perceived differently, we apologize to all who may have been shocked.” Lidl didn’t respond to request for clarification to comment.
