Reaching out from her mother’s womb, a baby bonds with her father.

When they say that pregnancy and giving birth are the miracle of life, they aren’t kidding.  Babies can be pretty amazing, even from within the womb.  Even before baby Nevaeh was born, she was bonding with her father.  On October 9, mother Alicia Atkins was rushed to the hospital in Glendale, Arizona, for an emergency cesarean section.  In the moments after the doctors cut the mother open, the baby stuck her hand outside of the woman’s belly and got a little playful.   The baby grabbed her father’s finger from within the womb of her mother and the whole thing was captured on film.

“The doctor called me over and said, ‘Hey, she’s grabbing my finger,’  said the baby’s stunned father, Randy Atkins.  “‘So I ran over there and just grabbed the shot and I was just in awe looking at it.  It was such an amazing picture.”

When the unusual baby shot hit the facebook page of Alicia’s business, A Classic Pin-Up Photography, they went viral.  Rather than being disgusted, what with the surgery, people were simply amazed by the moment, and with good reason.  Now mother, father, and baby are basking in viral fame and little Nevaeh is perfectly happy and normal.  No tail or anything.

This will be the last Samsung Galaxy Note 7 to ever be on an airplane.  After all, the phone has been pulled from shelves and pockets all around the world, because the phones tend to, uh… catch fire and/or explode.  It’s not a laughing matter if you’re flying over the Rocky Mountains with one in […]

The Red Cross is a wonderful organization.  When there’s trouble, the Red Cross is there setting up shelters and handing out food and water.  The Red Cross is normally very sensitive to the community needs around them, to boot.  However, sometimes, something will slip through the cracks that just looks wrong.  One of these things is […]

One of the most famous features of Matt Groening’s fictional town of Springfield is a strange one.  Springfield is home to a giant, perpetually burning tire fire.  I guess considering the town also has a nuclear plant that routinely leaks glowing green waste into the town’s water supply, the tire fire isn’t such a big […]

Gas prices don’t usually go down.  They go up.  Gas prices rose for decades, sometimes slowly, sometimes quickly, but always up on a long enough timeline.  Not long ago, $4 a gallon for gas was a very real proposition.  Nobody thought prices would go in the other direction, and yet… gas prices are going down […]

Fashion designers look for inspiration everywhere.  Some of it is pop culture, like Friday the 13th-inspired hoodies.  Other fashions are inspired by low culture, like deluxe Snuggies.  Some people turn to the culture of their past for inspiration, like the 8-bit video games they grew up on.  Italian fashion house Moschino is partnering with Nintendo […]
