#Ebola outbreak kills 75 people in Congo

The Ebola outbreak that has killed 75 people in the Democratic Republic of Congo since it began four weeks ago has the 'potential to be the worst ever seen'.

An agency that responds to humanitarian crises fears it will trump the pandemic of 2014, which killed 11,000 and decimated West Africa. The International Rescue Committee said: 'Without a swift, concerted and efficient response, this outbreak has the potential to be the worst ever seen.' Aid workers are battling round-the-clock to contain the outbreak, feared to have struck 111 people in the east of the DRC, on the border with Uganda. Experimental drugs have been shipped into the area to control the virus, considered to be one of the most lethal pathogens in existence.

PHOTOS From Senator John McCain's Funeral! #McCainMemorial #McCainFuneral

Former presidents, congressional colleagues and family have gathered in Washington to mark the passing of US Senator John McCain with a procession through the capital before an invitation-only funeral service.

McCain, who died on Tuesday just days before his 82nd birthday, was carried from the US Capitol by Armed Forces Body Bearers, before he was transported by a motorcade to Washington National Cathedral. Eight members of the Armed Forces were seen carrying McCain's coffin from the Rotunda to a waiting hearse about 8.30am, with one man at the back appearing to direct them. At one point, the plastic covering protecting the casket from adverse weather blew off McCain and straight on to the head of a soldier. He did not flinch, and continued marching down the stairs until someone was able to take the plastic off him. The casket then joined a police motorcade, with multiple large black vans at the back. Crowds were seen lining the street outside and inside the Vietnam Veterans memorial ahead of McCain's arrival. The motorcade took McCain and his family to the Memorial ahead of the funeral, where the Senator's wife, Cindy, laid a wreath to honor those lost in the Vietnam War.

Photos & Videos: Was Ariana Grande sexually harassed on live TV?

Bishop Charles H. Ellis III was yesterday caught molesting Ariana Grande who was one of the singers that performed at the funeral of Queen of Soul, Aretha Franklin.

Many people praised her soul-stirring rendition of “Natural Woman” at the event which took place in Detroit, but something else also got noticed. The singer was groped by Bishop Charles H. Ellis III on live TV. From the clip, the preacher could be seen wrapping his hand tightly around Ariana’s side and reaching for her breast, before saying, “I thought that [Ariana Grande] was a new something at Taco Bell.” The move by the Bishop rendered the singer uncomfortable as could be seen in the video that surfaced.

#ThisIsDubai: This is really sad! See how this man pays his girlfriend back!!

A woman living in the UAE recently underwent the worst kind of betrayal when the man she was in love with took AED 5 million from her and then proceeded to marry her friend instead, Emarat Al Youm reported.

The expertise and disputes settlement department in Dubai at the court of HH Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai heard the case of this woman and ordered the man in question to pay back AED4.5 million. The incident came to light when the woman- an employee at a Dubai-based multinational company - reported her colleague saying that she gave him the money in installments over a period of two years. She told the authorities she didn't mind giving him the money as she was in love with him and wanted to improve his financial situation before she married him. When she returned to the UAE after taking a short leave, she was SHOCKED to receive an invitation to his wedding with another woman working in the same company. To make matters worse, the couple then moved into an AED2.5 million apartment that the woman had paid for.
