Braa, I need to flex on my Mykonos to Athens helicopter ride. Let me get out to take a selfie while the blades are still spinning.

A Greek prosecutor has ordered an inquiry into the death of a 21-year-old British man killed by a spinning rotor blade after disembarking in Athens from a helicopter chartered from Mykonos.

Two ground engineers and the aircraft’s pilot, who had been detained after the incident on Monday, were freed pending the results of the investigation, which is expected to be fast-tracked.

 

“Our inquiry has focused on possible negligence,” a police source said. “Basic questions have emerged from witness testimony as to why the blades were not at a standstill when passengers were allowed to disembark on Monday.”

The victim, identified as Jack Fenton, was killed instantly. He was due to return to the UK on a private jet after holidaying with his parents on Mykonos.

Greek media said the Oxford Brookes University student was struck by the helicopter’s rear rotor while attempting to take a selfie within seconds of the Bell 407 touching down at a helipad near Spata.

Fenton’s parents, who were flying behind in a second helicopter, were reportedly unaware of the tragedy when their own pilot was alerted and they were diverted to Athens international airport.

A fleet of waiting limousines had been due to take the group to the airport from the helipad.

The Mykonos-Athens passage has become a popular route for Superior Air, the aviation company that operated the luxury helicopter.

mom just wants to announce to the world that she's a SLUT HO. 

 

https://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/mum-fined-offensive-number-plate-24762261

A mum fined for displaying the words "SLUT HO" on her car has told how she picked the number plate because she wanted to make people smile. Toni Brand said she realised life is short following her "amazing" son Ricky's suicide, adding: "Through his death I have learned to live and I have learned to smile and giggle."

The 47-year-old, of Tredegar in Blaenau Gwent, was ordered by a court to pay £344 after a police officer noticed her plate as she drove her white Volkswagen Scirocco on Nantgarw Hill. Toni believes "95% of the population" would not be offended by the joke and says the reaction from other drivers has been "amazing".

 

Mom and dead son.

The Richmond Police Department said it responded to the Rolling Hills Memorial Park at 1:30 p.m. after several reports of a "chaotic altercation" between eight to 20 family members who were reportedly armed. 

Sgt. Aaron Pomeroy said it was an instance of family drama that started between a brother and a sister who were attending their mother's funeral and who do not get along — and "it goes back many years." 

The brother and sister sister were talking and got into an argument, when her boyfriend came over and encouraged her to walk away, Pomeroy said.

"The brother started beating on the boyfriend, and that's when it escalated and it became a brawl and we started to get calls," he said. 

At some point during the physical fight, the brother got into the vehicle with the intention of driving over his sister, Pomeroy said.

"He attempted to drive toward his sister in an aggressive way, but instead he struck another female and sent her to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries," he said. The victim is 33 years old.

In the car, the brother also damaged the grass, knocked over and damaged headstones and vases, and broke a water main that ejected copious amounts of water and flooded the funeral plot, Lt. Matt Stonebraker, a spokesperson for the department, said.

The driver also reportedly knocked over the casket, but Stonebraker said the body didn't fall out.

When the brother got out of the car, a family member hit him in the head with a cane, injuring him, Pomeroy said. 

"They used the cane to try to get him under control," he said. "The suspect was hit a couple times. The cane came from someone who was at the funeral. I don't know that they ever identified where the cane came from."

"We sometimes get family disputes at the cemetery or at the church," Stonebraker said. "This was no different, but it was an especially large family fight and they said possibly armed. This one went above and beyond. Usually you don’t get the injuries. In this case it looked like they had some really bad blood."

No shots were fired and no guns were found.

we need a world war, seriously. 

https://news.yahoo.com/tiktok-users-vabbing-wearing-vaginal-212247845.html

TikTok users are 'vabbing' — wearing their vaginal juices as perfume to activate their natural attraction. A scientist says that makes no sense.

Some TikTok users are wearing their vaginal secretions as do-it-yourself perfume after hearing the trick can boost sexual attraction.

The trend, called "vabbing," became fodder on TikTok after user Mandy Lee shared a now-deleted video endorsing the practice. It gained more than 1 million views, and comments from longtime vabbing fans who suggested it for date nights and job interviews.

Fucking vabbers blatantly wasting their vagina fluids! If they only knew how precious vagina fluids are.

https://www.wbur.org/news/2022/08/05/vagina-microbiome-transfer-bacterial-vaginosis-bv-treatment

Nation’s first vaginal fluid transplants offer hope for millions

Jade Genga has been grappling with vaginal discomfort and pain for years.

At first it seemed like just a nuisance. After her gynecologist diagnosed her with bacterial vaginosis — or BV — she took a course of antibiotics and things seemed better. But three weeks later, it was back. Another round of antibiotics helped, but only for four weeks. It came back again.

WBUR is a nonprofit news organization. Our coverage relies on your financial support. If you value articles like the one you're reading right now, give today.

“I started to not like my own body because it was fighting me all the time,” said Genga, who is from Rhode Island.

She is far from alone. At any given moment, almost one in three women in the U.S. has BV, and the numbers are even higher for certain groups. More than 50% of African American women have the condition. BV has been linked to serious long-term health issues and yet, for many people, medicine does not have a good treatment.

But now there is new hope.

The idea is simple: Take fluid from a happy vagina and put it in an unhappy one.
