<p>The former wife of celebrity zoologist Adam Britton - who was imprisoned for raping, torturing and killing dogs - revealed to the Australian news show “60 Minutes” what was the moment when she discovered her then-husband's “evil” abuse.</p>

<p>Erin, while speaking at the show, further said that the zoologist had even begged her to provide him with some dog books when he was in jail.</p>

<h2><strong>Wife discovers husband's brutal crimes against dogs</strong></h2>

<p>Speaking on the news show, Erin confided that she had gone out of town when she was informed about police officials storming their home in Darwin.</p>

<p>Erin said that she had “no idea why or what the crimes were” till a lawyer informed her that her husband is facing an accusation of raping and torturing 42 dogs and of killing at least 39 of those animals.</p>

<p>“She told me that there were crimes of animal cruelty and, you know, obviously there was bestiality. And when she told me bestiality, my brain was, like, denial,” Erin recalled.</p>

<p>Rwanda is battling the deadly Marburg virus, which has killed at least six people in its first-ever outbreak.</p>

<p>The country's health minister, Sabin Nsanzimana, said that most of those killed were healthcare workers in the intensive care unit of the hospital.</p>

<p>Since Friday (September 27), 26 cases of the Marburg virus have been confirmed in the country. To stop the virus from spreading, the government has implemented measures like contact tracing, quarantining affected individuals and launching public health awareness campaigns.&nbsp;</p>

<h2><strong>What is the Marburg virus?</strong></h2>

<p>The Marburg virus is a highly infectious virus and has a high fatality rate from 24 per cent to 88 per cent, as per the World Health Organisation.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In 1967, the virus was first identified and linked to African green monkeys imported from Uganda.</p>

<h2><strong>How does the virus spread among people?</strong></h2>

<p>Egyptian rousette fruit bat is the primary carrier of the Marburg virus, from which it is transmitted to humans. The virus is also carried by African green monkeys and pigs.</p>

<p>Among humans, the virus spreads through contact with contaminated bedding or surfaces, infected semen and bodily fluids (blood, saliva, vomit, etc.).</p>

<h2><strong>What are the symptoms of Marburg virus?</strong></h2>

<p>In the patients infected with the Marburg virus, symptoms like high fever, severe headaches, and muscle pains are seen in the initial days.</p>

<p>After three days, patients have reported suffering severe symptoms like watery diarrhoea, stomach pain, vomiting, and bleeding from various parts of the body.</p>

<p>"The appearance of patients at this phase has been described as showing 'ghost-like' drawn features, deep-set eyes, expressionless faces, and extreme lethargy," stated the WHO.</p>

<p>In some patients, a non-itchy rash has also been seen between two and seven days. Some people also develop severe haemorrhagic manifestations in a week.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In fatal cases, there is bleeding from multiple areas like the nose, gums, eyes&nbsp;and vagina.</p>

<h2><strong>How can the&nbsp;disease be treated?</strong></h2>

<p>The doctors have been providing supportive care and administering oral or intravenous fluids to prevent dehydration. However, as per the WHO, there is no proven treatment for the&nbsp;Marburg virus.</p>

<p>To test the symptoms of Marburg virus infection, people are using diagnostic methods like antibody enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), antigen detection tests, serum neutralization tests, reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assay, and virus isolation by cell culture.</p>

<h2><strong>What measures should be adopted to control spread of the virus?</strong></h2>

<p>According to the health authorities, to control the spread of the virus, control measures like no physical contact with those infected, avoiding eating bushmeat or coming in contact with pigs, washing hands regularly, and using sanitiser should be implemented.</p>

Killer ‘eye-bleeding’ Marburg virus creates havoc in Rwanda. Here's what it is

<p>In an interesting research, an expert stumbled upon a new feature added by OpenAI in which people can ask ChatGPT to "remember" earlier conversations.</p>

<p>What left the researchers shocked was that this feature had the possibility of being easily exploited.</p>

<p>According to a report published in Ars Technica, security researcher Johann Rehberger discovered a stunning vulnerability in the chatbot's "long-term conversation memory" tool. This tool instructs the artificial intelligence to remember all details related to the conversations and store them in its memory file.</p>

<p>The feature was released in the AI's beta version in February and for the entire public in September. However, what was fun about this feature was that it was easy to trick, as per Rehberger.</p>

<p>In a blog post, the researcher&nbsp;said that by uploading a third-party file like Microsoft Word which had "false" memories listed like bullet points, it was possible to make the chatbot believe that Rehberger lived in the Matrix&nbsp;and was more than 100 years old.</p>

<p>After the researcher found the exploit, he privately informed OpenAI about it.</p>

<p>Rehberger said that the company did not take any steps and just closed the ticket while calling it a "Model Safety Issue" and not a security issue.</p>

<h2><strong>Here's how you can place false memories in ChatGPT</strong></h2>

<p>Rehberger then decided to carry out a full proof-of-concept hack to show OpenAI how ChatGPT's memories can be fiddled with. This time, the researcher asked the ChatGPT to exfiltrate the data to an outside server.</p>

<p>According to the report, this time OpenAI issued a patch and stopped ChatGPT from moving data off-server, however, the memory issue was still not fixed.</p>

<p>"To be clear: A website or untrusted document can still invoke the memory tool to store arbitrary memories," wrote Rehberger, in his blog post.</p>

<p>"The vulnerability that was mitigated is the exfiltration vector, to prevent sending messages to a third-party server," he added.</p>

<p>The researcher also uploaded a video explaining step-by-step how he added a "false memory" in ChatGPT.</p>

<p>"What is really interesting is this is memory-persistent now," Rehberger said in the demo video.</p>

<p>"The prompt injection inserted a memory into ChatGPT’s long-term storage. When you start a new conversation, it actually is still exfiltrating the data," he added.</p>

<p>In a medical breakthrough, a woman's type 1&nbsp;diabetes has been reversed in China through the world's first stem cell transplant.</p>

<p>In the treatment, these cells were converted into personalized stem cells, which were used for growing hormone-producing cells or 'islets' in the liver and pancreas, which regulate the amount of sugars in the body.</p>

<p>"I can eat sugar now," said the 25-year-old woman, who is from the city of Tianjin. According to the researchers, her body has now been able to successfully produce its own insulin for more than a year.</p>

<p>In this new method, islets were inserted just under the abdomen, which helped the researchers monitor their progress using MRI with comparative ease.</p>

<p>"They've completely reversed diabetes in the patient, who was requiring substantial amounts of insulin beforehand," said&nbsp;transplant surgeon Dr James Shapiro, who was not part of the new study, while speaking to the journal&nbsp;Nature.</p>

<h2><strong>Here's what experts said about new medical technique</strong></h2>

<p>Other experts also praised the breakthrough. "If this is applicable to other patients, it's going to be wonderful," said diabetes researcher Daisuke Yabe of Japan's Kyoto University while speaking to reporters.</p>

<p>Tesla Chairman&nbsp;Elon Musk&nbsp;and Indian American billionaire&nbsp;Vinod Khosla have been engaging in heated arguments on X lately and recently, they got into another ugly war of words over the employment rate in Argentina.</p>

<p>“Argentina's unemployment rate soars to 52% under Mileis dictatorial austerity program. Same will happen under @realDonaldTrump as he slashes spending. His tariffs will simultaneously increase inflation,” wrote Khosla on X, as he shared a link to a Financial Times article which stated that the poverty rate of the country stood at 52 per cent.</p>

<p>Responding to this post, Musk wrote, “You are dumb”, as he understood that the poverty data was referring to unemployment data.</p>

Tesla Chairman Elon Musk and Indian American billionaire Vinod Khosla have been engaging in heated arguments on X lately and recently, they got into another ugly war of words over the employment rate in Argentina.

Tesla Chairman Elon Musk and Indian American billionaire Vinod Khosla have been engaging in heated arguments on X lately and recently, they got into another ugly war of words over the employment rate in Argentina. “Argentina's unemployment rate soars to 52% under Mileis dictatorial austerity program. Same will happen under @realDonaldTrump as he slashes spending. His tariffs will simultaneously increase inflation,” wrote Khosla on X, as he shared a link to a Financial Times article which stated that the poverty rate of the country stood at 52 per cent. Responding to this post, Musk wrote, “You are dumb”, as he understood that the poverty data was referring to unemployment data.

<p>Scientists at NASA have been battling a "highest-level risk" at the International Space Station which has been leaking for five years with no solution to the problem found yet.</p>

<p>In a new report, NASA's space officials - who have been given the responsibility of managing the International Space Station - have expressed their concern regarding a small Russian part of the station which is a tunnel connecting a larger module to a docking port and is leaking.</p>

<h2><strong>All about the leakage at ISS</strong></h2>

<p>The US and Russian officials have been aware of the condition of this small PrK module - which is present between the Progress spacecraft airlock and the&nbsp;Zvezda module - and has been facing a leakage since September 2019.</p>

<p>In the new report, which was published by NASA's inspector general, new details were provided regarding the severity of the problem in the space agency.</p>

<p>In February, NASA had observed that the leak rate had increased from less than 1 pound of atmosphere a day to 2.4 pounds a day and in April, the rate reached 3.7 pounds a day.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The cause of the leak has not been identified by either Russian or US officials even after years of investigation.&nbsp;</p>

<p>"Although the root cause of the leak remains unknown, both agencies have narrowed their focus to internal and external welds," stated the report, which was signed by Deputy Inspector General George A. Scott.</p>

<h2><strong>Here's how NASA officials plan to handle the leakage</strong></h2>

<p>NASA officials have planned to mitigate the risk by keeping the hatch - which is present on the&nbsp;Zvezda module - closed.</p>

<p>After more than 80,000 years, a comet will again become visible from Earth - in a treat for the sky gazers - during two separate phases in the next month.</p>

<p>Comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS, which is also called Comet A3, will now orbit around the Sun after more than 80,000 years,&nbsp;according to a report published on Earth.com.</p>

<p>The comet has become visible from Earth from September 27 and will appear in the sky before sunrise on October 2.</p>

<p>It is likely to appear like a fuzzy ball with a tail which stretches across the sky.</p>

<p>"C/2023 A3 has an orbital period of approximately 80,000 years, classifying it as a long-period comet. This means its behaviour and appearance can be unpredictable, with potential changes in brightness and tail development as it approaches the sun," said Minjae Kim, a space expert in the University of Warwick's astronomy department, while speaking to Earth.com.</p>

<p>"If predictions hold, it could be visible to the naked eye, appearing as a fuzzy star with a tail stretching across the sky.&nbsp;Otherwise, binoculars or a small telescope may reveal more detail in the comet’s structure and tail," Kim explained.</p>

<p>The comet achieved its perihelion on September 27 which means it came to the closest point to the sun and will not go on a trip back towards the outer solar system,&nbsp;as per WKMG.</p>

<p>The comet will also become visible in the middle of October if the comet lives after its trip around the Sun. This is because comets generally break apart as they come closer to the sun.</p>

<p>After the trip, the comet will become visible to the naked eye when it comes closest to Earth and its best visibility is likely to be from October 12 until October 20.</p>

<p>Every night, the comet will move higher up in the sky till it disappears again for the next 80,000 years.</p>

<p>Archaeologists have unearthed the oldest eyeliner from the ruins of a prehistoric city in Turkey which has proved that humans were using makeup more than 8,000 years ago.</p>

<p>The kohl stick, which is a kind of eyeliner still popular among people, was found in Yeşilova Höyük which is an ancient settlement in western Turkey.</p>

<p>The kohl stick is made using green serpentine stone and there are traces of black paint on its tip, more than 8,200 years after it was used.</p>

<p>Speaking about the discovery to Daily Mail, lead archaeologist Zafer Derin said, "For centuries, kohl has been worn by individuals of all genders, statuses, and socioeconomic levels."</p>

<p>The kohl is believed to have been used in various parts of the world like Egypt, the Levant,&nbsp;Syria,&nbsp;Iran, and Anatolia.&nbsp;</p>

<p>"It's been used from ancient times to the present, and it is still used in many regions today.&nbsp;&nbsp;The kohl stick found in Yeşilova Höyük is the oldest known example ever found. This may show how much the first Aegean women living in Yeşilova were fond of their beauty," Derin added.</p>

Archaeologists have unearthed the oldest eyeliner from the ruins of a prehistoric city in Turkey which has proved that humans were using makeup more than 8,000 years ago.

Archaeologists have unearthed the oldest eyeliner from the ruins of a prehistoric city in Turkey which has proved that humans were using makeup more than 8,000 years ago. The kohl stick, which is a kind of eyeliner still popular among people, was found in Yeşilova Höyük which is an ancient settlement in western Turkey. The kohl stick is made using green serpentine stone and there are traces of black paint on its tip, more than 8,200 years after it was used. Speaking about the discovery to Daily Mail, lead archaeologist Zafer Derin said, "For centuries, kohl has been worn by individuals of all genders, statuses, and socioeconomic levels."

"It's been used from ancient times to the present, and it is still used in many regions today. The kohl stick found in Yeşilova Höyük is the oldest known example ever found. This may show how much the first Aegean women living in Yeşilova were fond of their beauty," Derin added. The kohl stick was discovered in a Neolithic layer which dates back to 8,200 years.
