Devon mother and son 'thrown off bus' in Plymouth

The thirty-five year old pregnant Sharon Tracey and her two year old son Brandon have been kicked out of the bus in Plymouth, when she was heading home from work. The bus driver would have warned the mother to keep her child quiet. When Sharon could not keep the two year old Brandon quiet she was forced to leave the bus. She had to walk a mile back home. Sharon said that she felt embarrassed and had done everything she could to keep her son quiet. Brandon had been in town, he was fed up and hot and was screaming to get out of this pushchair. He husband was shocked when she called and told him what had happened to her and their son. The transport company Plymouth Citybus said that they are going to investigate.

I am shocked to her that a pregnant woman en her son where being kicked out of the bus. I mean it annoying when a child is screaming and especially when the child is tired and hot. They just want to sleep comfortable. The bus driver did not have the right to kick them out the bus before she was by their bus halt. I do think that the bus driver should be punished or loose his job. It is a shame that something like that happened and also that no one in the bus had protested or said something to the bus driver.

Isle of Wight prison helicopter escape foiled

Brain Lawrence, 67, planned to escape from Parkhurst last week using helicopter flights at the Isle of Wight Festival as cover. He was a retired schoolteacher, who had battered a friend to death because he was dating his ex-wife and was planning to kill two other people. Lawrence had communicated with his accomplished by writing letters with lemon juice and codes hidden in Sudoku puzzles. The Ministry of Justice said that Lawrence draw a map and gave instructions for where the helicopter should land. Lawrence has been transferred to another prison. Barry Greenberry, governor of HMP Isle of Wight, is proud of his security team that they have discovered the escape attempt of Lawrence on time.

I think it is weird that the letter or the puzzles haven’t been checked by the security team in the first place. If the have checked the letters they would see that the letters where unwritten and that something wasn’t right. That way Lawrence never got the change to send information to his accomplish. But they where lucky that they had found a clue; ‘more heat, less light’. If the security team never had discovered that clue they would have been unaware of the escape plans of Lawrence and he would have escaped form jail and would have been in Spain before the security have figured out how Lawrence had escaped.

Man badly injured outside Leeds pub after England match

A forty year old man, from West Park area had been punched to the ground. A man had punched him outside The Skyrack in Headingley. They were all there to watch a soccer match. The Leeds pub following England’s first World Cup match, had been packed inside as outside. The Det Supt Paul Taylor said: “The victim is in a very serious condition in hospital and we are obviously extremely about him.” Even if it was packed there would have been some witnesses who have seen it happen and he says that these people need to contact them with any information they have of that night.


It is hard to believe that people are fighting because of a soccer match. They are definitely fanatics if it is about their own soccer team. How hard did the man punch the victim that he is in critical condition? That means that he man was really angry when he punched the victim. So there must be something that had happened, perhaps some the exchanged words and led into this result. So there must be some witnesses who had seen what had happened. And who had punched the victim. It is hard to hit someone to the ground without people not noticing.

Teenager raped two seven-year-old boys in Manchester

A teenage boy had raped two seven year old boys. One of the teenagers was sixteen years old when he raped a boy in Manchester. The boy had admitted two counts of rape against the boys at Manchester Crown Court at an earlier hearing. The boy had been given a sex month curfew and a three year community rehabilitation order when he had committed the second crime. The second victim told the police that the teenager had a bottle of cherry brandy and that they could have some if they did as he said. Both victims were young, naïve and clearly sexually inexperienced boys. They don’t understand what had happened and what the teenager had done was illegal.


I am shocked to hear that the teenager is just getting a six month curfew and a three year community rehabilitation order. This boy can manipulate the young boy at the age of sixteen. What will he be able to do when he is twenty- eight? It is not just something that he does for fun, it is mental descries He will do it again when he is older. He even raped two boys and not girls, so he likes them in a sick way. They need to find out why he did it and if he is capable of doing it again when he isn’t under control anymore.

Wigan transplant patient given lungs of 30-year smoker

Ms Scott, 28, died because of a lung transplantation. She was born with cystic fibrosis, meaning she needed new longs to survive. She underwent the surgery in February 2009 to prolong her life. However she died a few months later in July. Tests concluded that the lungs she were lungs of a smoker. He father is shocked when he heard why she died. He truly believes that if his daughter knew that the lungs were from someone who smoked she would have not undergone the surgery. The UHSM (The University Hospital of South Manchester) said that they had followed the national guideline. She was given a marginal organ and that means an organ which are deemed to be of higher risk, but still considered safe. Her family said that the hospital had never told her about the lungs she was getting.


I do think the hospital is responsible for giving enough information about the organ patients are getting. But I also believe that she had to ask the doctors what the conditions is of the lungs. It is hard to believe it but patient need to ask a lot before getting the information. The doctors believed that the lungs were ok. Yet giving lungs of a smoker to a woman who has a bad lung decisions a risk you are taking and defiantly not worth trying. Still the hospital had to double check before operation on Ms Scott and giving her lungs of a smoker, and defiantly in her condition.

Baby Peter doctor 'missed unique opportunity'!

Dr Jerome Ikwueke had to appear before the General Medical Council. He is a doctor who had received training at the local NHS in family doctors aware of child protection issues. He is being accused of professional misconduct. He had neglected a baby called Peter Connelly. Peter died on 3 August 2007 with more than 50 injuries. Dr Ikwueke had seen Peter more than half a dozen times before his death. Dr Ikwueke had seen some of the injuries, but had not done nothing. The baby had broken ribs, visible bruising and injuries to his hand and grab marks as well. He was aware of Peter’s mother, Tracey Connelly, history of depression, and that she was struggling to cope with being a mother. The hearing of Dr Ikwueke was adjourned until Tuesday.

It is hard to believe that Dr Ikwueke had not reported the injuries that Peter had. The baby had been in the hospital before he died, so the injuries where visible, like the grab marks and the bruises. He cannot be afraid to report such things because it is his responsibility to report it. The baby had suffered before he died in the hospital with 50 injuries, 50. How could he have been pretending that there was nothing wrong with Peter. And now the child died because his mother didn’t want him and because Dr Iklwueke was afraid to report the injuries. It is sad to hear that is still happening.

Working overtime increases heart risk!

Working for 3 or 4 hours extra a day increases coronary heart disease. Studies showed that not only unhealthy food, alcohol and smoking is bad for your heart but that working overtime can cause heart diseases. People who work overtime have more problems with their heart. Those persons who are career-minded tend to be a Type A personality. The character trades are highly driven, aggressive or irritable. They also have little physical exercises because they will sit most of the time. They can do something about that area by taking a walk at lunch, staking the stairs instead of the lift and eating a piece of fruit instead of biscuit. However, studies did not find out what the reason and or connection is with working overtime and heart diseases. They will do more research with that the connection is between those two.

Well I guess it is not that weird that people who work overtime have more problems with their heart or even other health problems. They need to do more in a day time and that means that your brain and body are both working overtime. Without the long breaks or even stops, it is just a matter of time that your body gives a sign that something is wrong and that your body cannot keep up with you anymore. That also means more pressure on your heart. I think that if they go further with their research, employers will see that their employees have risks at heart diseases. Perhaps the employers won’t push their employees to work extra.
