Nitrogen
We already know the naked mole rat is an animal superhero: it is long-lived for an animal of its size, rarely gets cancer and shrugs off some kinds of pain. Now the East African rodent turns out to have a metabolic trick that allows it to survive very low oxygen levels with no apparent ill effects.
To investigate how well naked mole rats (Heterocephalus glaber) tolerate low oxygen concentrations, a team of biologists first put them in a chamber with just 5 per cent oxygen, less than a quarter the amount found in air. Such conditions kill mice within 15 minutes (and we wouldn’t survive either).
But naked mole rats just carry on as normal. The first test was stopped after 5 hours when nothing happened, says Thomas Park at the University of Illinois at Chicago. “We were blown away.”
Next the team put mole rats in pure nitrogen, with no oxygen at all. This kills mice in about a minute. People pass out after a breath or two of pure nitrogen, and would probably die in under 10 minutes.
Miss Italy
A former Miss Italy finalist has gone on national TV three months after acid was thrown in her face, allegedly by an ex-boyfriend.
Gessica Notaro, 27, was badly scarred and is in danger of losing the sight of an eye. Her former boyfriend is in custody.
On the TV show, to be broadcast late on Thursday, the former model took off a scarf covering her face.
"I want you to see what he did to me. This isn't love," she said.
Ms Notaro was initially told by renowned talk show host Maurizio Costanzo that she could keep the scarf on if she preferred. But she said she would rather remove it and that everyone had to see.
Fraud
It looks like Nicki Minaj is claiming the
throne as Queen of Rap. Just like male rappers regularly jocky for “King
of New York” or the top spot as the GOAT, greatest of all time, it’s
hard to deny the success the Trini rapper has had since bursting on the
scene in 2010.
After dropping Pink Friday, the Queens-bred wordsmith has had more than 70 songs on Billboard’s Hot 100, and has been the hottest female rapper in the game–at least commercially–for years.
The crown doesn’t come easy, though. Last month she battled with fellow New Yorker Remy Ma for lyrical supremacy, suffering a near-fatal blow when the Bronx lyricist dropped “ShEther.”
Still, Minaj recovered, releasing a trio of tracks that not only took direct aim at Remy Ma, but sent her Barbz into a tizzy as well.
One of those songs, “No Frauds,” was the most full-throated attack on her rival and it’s also her latest video.

Box
A Broome woman has been hospitalised after she was stung by an Irukandji jellyfish at Cable Beach on Thursday afternoon.
It is understood the woman's friend contacted surf lifesavers when the 36-year-old said she was experiencing intense pain and problems breathing.
The popular tourist spot has since been closed to swimmers, and lifesavers will drag stinger nets on Friday morning before re-opening the beach.
Irukandji jellyfish, a type of box jellyfish, are extremely dangerous and potentially lethal, and there have been nearly 70 deaths attributed to the jellyfish in Australia since 1983.
