An attorney for "Octomom" Nadya Suleman says she agreed to a paid interview and semi-nude photographs for a British magazine because she's struggling financially.


Southern California attorney Jeff Czech said Tuesday that with 14 children to care for, Suleman can't hold down a regular job to pay bills and "does whatever she can."


In photos posted to TMZ.com and published in Britain's Closer magazine, Suleman wears panties and little else.


Czech declined to disclose how much Suleman was paid for the photo shoot and interview.


In 2009, Suleman declined a million-dollar offer to appear in pornography.


When Suleman gave birth to octuplets in 2009, she already had six other children. All her children were conceived through in vitro fertility treatments.

Trains on wedding dresses are often long and normally require a couple of bridesmaids to keep them in place.


But this bride takes things to a whole new level.
The 17-year-old model named Emma was pictured showcasing the 1.85-mile long train now regarded as the world's longest.


The ivory train billowed out over a main boulevard in Romania's capital Bucharest as she rose over the city in a hot air balloon.


The Guinness Book of World Records declared the item on the silk and lace gown as the longest train, beating the previous record held by a Dutch designer.


But pedestrians didn't seem to make much of today's event, which was organised by the artifact's creators, the Andree Salon fashion house and the organisers of this year's biannual Wedding Fair in Bucharest. A few bystanders looked up at the balloon, but many others ignored it.


The train, which took 100 days to create, was crafted by a team of 10 seamstresses, said salon spokeswoman Lavinia Lascae.
The lace was imported from France, while taffeta and other fabrics were purchased from Italy, costing several thousand pounds, she added.

A Nepalese family with a rare condition that causes excessive facial hair growth have travelled from their remote village home in the hope of securing life-changing treatment.


Devi Budhathoki, 37, and her daughters Manjura, 13, Niraj, 12, and Mandira, five, suffer from a congenital problem known as 'werewolf syndrome', which causes hair to sprout between their eyes and across their brows.


Hypertrichosis (also called Ambras Syndrome) means an abnormal amount of hair growth on the body.


There are two distinct types of the condition - generalised, which occurs over the entire body, and localised hypertrichosis, which is restricted to one area.

A new species of wasp discovered on the Indonesian island Sulawesi is two-and-a-half inches long, and has jaws so vast that its discoverer admits, 'I don't know how it can walk.'

Lynn Kimsey, professor of entomology at the University of California, Davis, says ‘Its jaws are so large that they wrap up either side of the head when closed. When the jaws are open they are actually longer than the male’s front legs.'

Kimsey discovered the warrior wasp on the Mekongga Mountains in southeastern Sulawesi.

She says its enormous size and ferocity makes it like 'the Komodo Dragon of wasps'.

‘I’m going to name it Garuda, after the national symbol of Indonesia,’ Kimsey said.

The Walton sextuplets were born in Liverpool, England on 18 November 1983 and were the world's first all-female surviving sextuplets, and the world's fourth known set of surviving sextuplets. The children are Hannah, Luci, Ruth, Sarah, Kate and Jenny.
The birth of the Walton sextuplets, attracted worldwide attention and they grew up in the spotlight until they were 18 years old, when they decided to live more privately.
The children were born to Graham and Janet (born 1952) Walton who had been trying to have children for several years and had just been accepted as potential adoptive parents before their thirteenth attempt at fertility treatment bore spectacular results. The children grew up in the family's seven-bedroom home in Wallasey, Merseyside.
