During his Thursday night performance at Manchester Arena, the 22-year-old singer twitched with simmering rage as he told fans: 'I thought I could have a moment to say something, but if you guys want I can cut the bulls***!'
 
          He continued: 'I’m trying to engage, but if you guys don’t want to, I’ll play the music.'
The outburst came near the end of the show after Bieber tried to tell the audience why this is his Purpose tour - 'saying ‘everyone in here has a purpose in life.'  
 Earlier in the show he also asked for fans to 'stay as quiet as possible' while he sang two ballads, but the screams came thick and fast as he performed Cold Water and the Love Yourself on an acoustic guitar.

ISIS opens new front in the battle for Iraq: Suicide bombers attack government targets in Kirkuk to divert attention from fight to retake Mosul.

ISIS fanatics have opened up a new front in the battle for Iraq after suicide bombers attacked government targets in another city to divert attention from the fight to retake Mosul. 
 
Militants armed with assault rifles and explosive vests attacked a compound in the northern Iraqi city of Kirkuk and killed 16 at a constructions site further north as the jihadists' grip on Mosul started to slip. 

In one attack, three bombers infiltrated a power plant being built by an Iranian company near Dibis, a town about 25 miles northwest of Kirkuk.
Hours earlier, a commando of suicide bombers armed with rifles attacked multiple locations in Kirkuk, an ethnically divided city 150 miles north of Baghdad, security sources said.
 
A Kurdish intelligence officer said four suicide bombers attacked the main police headquarters in the city at around 3am while witnesses said dozens of armed jihadists were seen in the streets of Kirkuk.
The assaults were aimed at diverting the authorities' attention from the battle to retake the ISIS-held Mosul.

Ohio mother's confession details how she smothered her three young sons with blankets 'so they would never abuse women'.



An Ohio mother charged with suffocating her three young sons said in a recorded police interview that she smothered each boy with a blanket because she didn't want them to suffer.

Brittany Pilkington, 24, also said in her taped confession she was depressed and worried her sons would eventually become abusive toward women.

Pilkington can be heard in the recording, made in August 2015, a day after the death of her youngest son, telling officers that she was sleeping with the infant in bed and then woke up on top of him. She also was recorded saying she held a blanket over her other son's face.

You've never seen a doggy paddle like THIS! Golden retriever is an expert SURFER and takes disabled children out on the water.



A golden retriever is proving that there is more to doggy paddle than a simple swim in the sea.

Ricochet is a champion surfer who puts his talents on the board to good use by teaching disabled children how to surf.

Parents of children, suffering from a range of conditions from autism to physical impairments, have been shocked at how the dog encourages them into the sea.

Boy, 13, to have his leg amputated after teacher 'BODY-SLAMMED him to the floor three times on his first day of school, then sent him home without medical attention or telling his mom'.



A teenage boy from Columbus, Georgia, will have his right leg amputated today after a teacher allegedly body-slammed him to the floor three times, causing nerve damage.

Montravious Thomas, 13, was attending Edgewood Student Services Center on September 12 when Bryant Mosley 'had to physically restrain a student... due to behavioral issues,' a Columbus Police Department report said.

But an attorney representing Thomas and his mother says Mosley repeatedly threw the boy to the ground then sent him home without medical attention or telling his mom, The Ledger-Enquirer reported.

Thomas was attending the AIM program, which hosts children who have been temporarily removed from their regular schools due to disruptive behavior, when the incident happened.

It was his first day at the program, according to WTVM.

According to Renee Tucker, who represents Thomas and his mom Lawanda, the boy was trying to leave class to call his mom when Mosley, a behavioral specialist, stopped him. 

Mosley then threw him to the floor for an 'unknown reason,' Tucker said, and did it again when the boy tried to leave again.

Tucker also claims that Eddie Powell, the assistant principal, saw the violence at one point, an that a school resource officer saw Thomas limping away but didn't help or file a report. 

The attorney also says that the school talked about calling for an ambulance, but then decided against it, and that Mosley then put the boy on a bus home without calling his family.

'Doctors talked to him and his mother on Sunday and told him they were having to take his leg since they were unable to improve the flow of blood to his lower leg. 

The family will be pursuing a lawsuit, Tucker said, and that early filing notices put the figure at $5million.

A man has burned a hole in his throat after trying to eat the world's hottest chilli, a medical journal has revealed.
The 47-year-old American ate a burger smothered in a puree made of Bhut jolokia - luminous orange chillies that grow in India, also known as ghost peppers.
Within seconds, the man began to vomit.
His vomiting continued so violently that he eventually tore a hole in his esophagus.
 
The 47-year-old American ate a burger smothered in a puree made of Bhut jolokia - luminous chillies that grow in India, also known as ghost peppers. He ended up with a feeding tube.
It was not until he began reeling on the floor in pain that he was taken to the emergency room. 
 
Doctors performed an abdomen and pelvic scan that revealed a build up of air, fluid and food inside his body.
Eventually he was wheeled into the operated room where surgeons discovered a 2.5cm tear in the left side of his throat.   

According to the Journal of Emergency Medicine, the man was given a tube to aid his breathing for 14 days as he recovered. 

He then spent another nine days in hospital before he was eventually discharged - with a feeding tube in place.
 
Writing in the Journal, medics said: 'This case serves as an important reminder of a potentially life- threatening surgical emergency initially interpreted as discomfort after a large spicy meal.'
 
Few people survive a tear in the esophagus, a medical complication known as Boerhaave syndrome. 
 
It was first reported in 1724 by a Dutch doctor called Herman Boerhaave.
With very few typical symptoms, it is difficult to diagnose before it is too late.
After a while, sufferers commonly develop potentially fatal shocks or sepsis.
 
However, around a third of cases happen under unusual circumstances. 
It is not clear how the ghost pepper prompted the man's esophagus to rupture - whether it was the inflammation, the retching, something else, or a combination of factors. 
 
Ghost peppers have a Scoville rating of more than one million. 
To put that in perspective: a sweet bell pepper has 0, Tabasco has 100, and Jalapeno has 2,500. 




Samsung refuses to use outside labs to test its batteries: Claims self-testing could not have led to battery crisis.

Smartphone manufacturers selling their products through major US carriers all put their batteries to the test at external labs approved by the CTIA – that is, except for Samsung.
 
In the midst of the firm’s massive recall of the ill-fated Galaxy Note 7, which is set to cost at least $5.3 billion and has been called an ‘environmental disaster,’ it has been revealed that Samsung tests its products at an in-house lab.
 
Though the facility is certified by the CTIA, the move makes Samsung the only such manufacturer that does not use an independent battery testing site, according to a report from the Wall Street Journal.

























A Samsung Note 7 handset is positioned for testing in the lab (left), then later catches fire after pressure is applied to its fully charged battery (right). The testers later claimed that the same would happen to 'any phone' under these conditions.
 

Smartphone manufacturers selling in the US all go through one of 28 labs certified by the US wireless industry’s trade group, the CTIA, according to the report.
Other tech giants, including Apple, use third-party CTIA labs.
 
On Friday, Samsung said it will be making ‘significant changes’ in its quality assurance process to improve the safety of its devices.
The firm, however, did not elaborate on how this would be done.
 
When manufacturers test their own products rather than going through a third party, they often run the risk creating conflicts of interests, Eddie Forouzan, of the IEEE committee that developed the battery standard, tells WSJ.
Doing this, however, can help to protect company secrets and even get the product out faster.

A man in Union, Missouri, has been arrested after he allegedly convinced several women to buy him expensive cars as a part of a dating app scam. 
Timothy Rossell, 28, was taken into custody on Thursday and charged with one count of impersonating a federal officer and four counts of identity theft.
 
Rossell was allegedly convincing women across the country to buy him cars on the dating app Plenty Of Fish. 
After driving the cars for a while, Rossell would sell them and tell the women the vehicles had been stolen, KMOV reported.  


Timothy Rossell, 28, of Missouri, was taken into custody on Thursday after he assumed fake identities and convinced several women to spend thousands on luxury cars for him.


The 28-year-old was living under the identity of U.S. marshal Austyn Gardner with a 27-year-old fiancee, the St Louis Post-Dispatch reported.
 
With his assumed identity, Rossell convinced his finacee to buy him a Cadillac Escalade, a Shelby Mustang, and a Can-Am Spyder. He also opened credit cards in her names and accumulated thousands in debt. 
 
When the woman discovered the charges, along with federal IDs for Rossell under varying names, she confronted him. 
Rossell then fled in a 2014 Lamborghini Gallardo, valued at $200,000.
The luxury vehicle had been purchased for Rossell by a 27-year-old woman in Ft Myers, Florida.
 
  
A woman in Fort Myers, Florida, bought Rossell a white 2014 Lamborghini Gallardo (stock image, pictured), valued at $200,000. When the woman he was living with confronted him about other identities he had assumed, he fled in the car before police caught him
 
 
The woman in Florida had purchased Rossell several cars, including a  2016 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 (stock image, pictured), valued at $96,000, after meeting him on Plenty Of Fish
 
That woman knew Rossell as deputy U.S. marshal Austyn Labella and had purchased him a 2016 Chevrolet Corvette Z06, valued at $96,000, and had also loaned him $27,000 in addition to the Lamborghini.
A third woman in Pennsylvania had also fallen victim to Rossell. 
 
All three women met the Missouri man on the Plenty Of Fish daring app.  
After fleeing in the Lamborghini, police arrested Rossell in Effingham, Illinois, as he attempted to buy a bus ticket. 
 
The car had blown a tire.  

Rossell has an extensive criminal history and has assumed numerous identities. 
He was previously charged with auto theft and impersonating both Pennsylvania and Missouri state law enforcement personnel in 2014.

King With his dad and his famous girlfriend...

Photos: US Olympic sprinter Tyson Gay's 15-year-old daughter killed in shootout at a restaurant.



American Olympic sprinter Tyson Gay’s teenage daughter was killed by stray bullet in an apparent shootout at a restaurant.

Trinity Gay, 15, a rising track star died after being shot in the neck at a restaurant in Kentucky in the early hours of Sunday morning, October 16th. Tyson Gay, who grew up in Lexington told local news site LEX 18:
"She didn’t make it. I’m so confused. She was just here last week for fall break. It’s so crazy. I have no idea what happened."
 The runner told reporters he was very close with his daughter, who was following in her dad's footsteps as a rising track star. Police in Lexington, where the fatal shooting happened, said it happened at around 4am 98am.
According to police, a group of men in two cars outside of the Cook Out restaurant began shooting at each other before speeding off.

It is thought Trinity was a bystander who was not in the vehicles, described as a Dodge Charger and a dark coloured sports car with tinted windows, when she was shot. Police say they believe they have found one of the cars that could be involved in this shooting and they are questioning possible suspects.

In a statement police said they are now investigating the early morning homicide.
Trinity ran as an athlete for Lafayette High School, making a name for herself locally with success as a 100m and 200m sprinter.
"She was so innocent, she was so innocent," her mother, Shoshana Boyd, told the Daily News in a tearful interview. "I just want people to stop shooting and realise who they 're hurting. It's just random. They don't understand who they are hurting"
She said her daughter wanted to become a surgeon and also hoped to match the Olympic glory of her father.
"I should never have to bury my own child," Boyd said. "She wanted to be the fastest woman in the world, and they took that away from her".

He wasn't immediately identified, pending notification of family.
The sheriff's office says the man was a jumpmaster, someone who helps train others in military jumping techniques.
 
This is the second death at the Marion County Airport this year.

BREAKING NEWS: Republican party headquarters is firebombed and an adjacent building is daubed with Nazi graffiti in North Carolina.

The Republican party headquarters in North Carolina was firebombed and an adjacent building was vandalized with the words: 'Nazi Republicans leave town or else.'
 
One state GOP official called the attack on the building in Hillsborough, Orange County an act of 'political terrorism', the Charlotte Observer reported.
 
A bottle, filled with flammable substance, was thrown into a window overnight, setting off a fire that scorched the interior of the building before the blaze burned itself out, police said.
 
Executive director of the state's Republican Party Dallas Woodhouse said the building was 'a total loss' and photos from the interior showed damaged yard signs bearing the names of Donald Trump and Mike Pence, along with other politicians.
 
With three weeks left until election day, Mayor Tom Stevens acknowledged the significance of the attack, saying: 'This highly disturbing act goes far beyond vandalizing property.
 
'It willfully threatens our community’s safety, and its hateful message undermines decency, respect and integrity in civic participation.'

Twin boys conjoined at the head are finally separated after 20-hour op that veteran surgeon almost stopped half-way through.

A pair of twins conjoined at the head have been successfully separated after a 20-hour operation. 
 
Anias and Jadon McDonald, 13 months old, are recovering in the Bronx's Montefiore Hospital after their life-threatening operation on Thursday. 
 
According to their surgeon - Dr James Goodrich - it is incredible they made it this far.
 
Half way through the operation, the veteran neurosurgeon considered stopping the procedure altogether when they discovered the boys shared far more brain tissue than they had expected - even despite using 3D imaging to prepare. 
 
Made it out: One of the twins, Jadon (pictured), is recovering in his ward on Friday.
 
Anias was still in surgery late on Friday morning since he was more affected by the separation of their brain tissue
 
Extraordinary: Anias and Jadon McDonald underwent surgery to be separated
 
With every cut, Anias' heart rate and blood pressure plummeted. 
Eventually he found an opening and continued, successfully separating the two. 
 
However, it means that while Jaden is recovering relatively well, Anias was still in surgery late on Friday morning, and could face severe physical issues.
Their parents Nicole and Christian, from near Chicago, Illinois, sat in the waiting room the whole time. 
 
Nicole, 31, took to Facebook on Friday to explain all the details to the thousands of people that have followed the family's story. 
 
'The overall atmosphere was one of celebration mixed with uncertainty,' she explained
 
 
They boys were born via cesarean section last September near Chicago, Illinois.
They were attached by the crown of the head. 
 
Nicole and 37-year-old Christian insisted the boys were perfect as they were.
But in order to let them lead a normal life, they have traveled to Montefiore Hospital in the Bronx, New York, to have one of the world's most esteemed surgeons perform the incredibly rare operation to separate their heads. 
The operation costs $2.5 million.  
 
 
Long wait: Their parents Nicole and Christian (pictured in white) stand in the ward with the surgeons as the boys get ready for their 20-hour surgery on Thursday in Montefiore Hospital
 
 
Happy: Nicole, 31, and 37-year-old Christian, insisted the boys were perfect as they were
 
The boys were wheeled into the operating theater at 7.15am on Thursday. 
'I could almost keep them like this,' Nicole told CNN before the operation, admitting that she had become attached to the boys this way. 
 
She said she knew this was for the best, but the fear that something could go wrong during surgery was excruciating.
'This is so hard. I'm not going to sugarcoat it,' she said.
 
Anias and Jadon, who have a three-year-old brother Aza, are technically called 'craniopagus twins' - a phenomenon that occurs just once in every 2.5 million births.
 
Based on national statistics, it is astonishing they made it to 13 months.
Around 40 per cent of craniopagus twins are stillborn. 
Of those that survive, a third die within 24 hours of birth
 

Doctors in China succesfully operate on 28-week-old fetus with heart disease...while inside mother's belly.



Doctors in Guangzhou Province, South China have successfully operated on a 28-week-old fetus with congenital heart disease - while in its mom’s belly.

The 39-year-old patient, whose surname is Xie, became pregnant for a second time six months ago. Twenty-one weeks later, she had an ultrasonic test which showed the fetus was suffering from arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia. The chances of survival are very low if surgery is undertaken after birth.


Xie insisted she wanted to keep the baby. And on September 22, doctors in Guangzhou conducted interventional cardiology treatment, with the help of experts from Austria. The size of the fetus’ heart was as small as an almond so the slightest movement could have resulted in damage, said Zhuang Jian, the director of Guangdong General Hospital.

Xie left the hospital four days after the successful operation. This is the first time Chinese doctors have conducted an interventional cardiology operation on a fetus’ congenital heart disease.
