French man found dead in his apartment eight years after apparent suicide



Over the weekend in France, a new home owner walked into his new apartment along with a locksmith, to inspect his new apartment, only to be greeted by the corpse of the apartment's former occupant.
The former owner has since been missing, all attempts to contact him or his family all proved abortive, his neighbors thought he was out of the country, the former occupant Thomas Ngin lost his job in 2005, and was in serious debt for a long time, it was in 2005 that he was last seen, all through this time, his neighbors have helped him clear his mailbox and pass letters under his door, not knowing that he had long commited suicide by hanging himself with his bedsheet.
This trend of lonely living is becoming very popular in France, this wont be the first time that a corpse is found years after its death.
Suicide and depression are serious problems faced by the western world.

Chinese couple sell Child to buy an Iphone


This just doesn't sound right
A Chinese couple identified as Zheng and Teng are currently facing criminal charges in China for illegally selling their infant daughter for $8,200.
The unemployed couple began placing online adverts for the sale of the child June this year, the child was delivered in their house, and handed over to the highest bidder, what is even more bizzare about this story is the fact that the mother of the child used the money gotten from the sale to buy an Iphone and other expensive goods.
The couple claim that they decided to sell the child because they couldn't afford to take care of her, whatever their excuse, I doubt if buying an Iphone found solve their financial issues...
This is just sickening!

2yr old chinese boy delivered of his twin


Earlier this week, a two year old (Xiao Feng) chinese boy who had a protruding stomach and difficulty breathing was delivered of his parasitic twin brother, doctors conducted an MRI scan on the boy when he was rushed to the hospital and found out that the reason for his breathing problem was as a result of a fetus present in him!
Imagine a toddler male giving birth! 
As odd as this sounds, this condition named 'fetus in fetus' is actually well documented, it occurs in 1 in every 500,000 births, before this present case, in September 2011, a 41 year old Indonesian man was delivered of his parasitic twin, now that is strange--- carrying a baby for 41 years! Women around the world have to give this man an award, lol.
