Photos:Cult leader 'took wire brush to rape victim's mind'

The leader of a Maoist cult used mind control to rape and abuse a female follower, a jury has heard.

The woman, 64, told Southwark Crown Court Aravindan Balakrishnan took a "wire brush to her brain" after she joined the group in the late 1970s.

She said the 75-year-old, of Enfield, had made her believe he "had the right over your mind and body".

Mr Balakrishnan denies charges including four counts of rape and seven of indecent assault.

The woman told the court Mr Balakrishnan "psychologically stripped" and "dehumanised" his followers to the point where they believed he had the power of life or death over them.

He denies cruelty to a child under 16 and false imprisonment.

Southwark Crown Court heard there were no records the woman was taken to a doctor, except for her inoculations, or had attended school while living at the south London commune.

World's oldest-known living cancer '11,000 years old'

The world's oldest-known living cancer dates back 11,000 years, according to UK scientists.

It arose in a single dog and has survived in canines ever since, with the cancer cells passing between animals when they mate.

A team led by the Welcome Trust Sanger Institute near Cambridge decoded the DNA of the cancer.

It revealed the "genetic identikit" of an ancient husky-like dog, which first developed the disease.

The animal was of a medium size with a short, straight coat that was coloured grey-brown or black.

"We do not know why this particular individual gave rise to a transmissible cancer," said lead researcher Dr Elizabeth Murchison.

"But it is fascinating to look back in time and reconstruct the identity of this ancient dog, whose genome is still alive today in the cells of the cancer that it spawned."

Man died with 'tapeworm tumours'

A man has died with tumours made of cancerous parasitic worm tissue growing in his organs, doctors report.

The patient had HIV and his weakened immune system allowed the worm-cancer to flourish.

The unusual case was diagnosed through a collaboration between the US Centers for Disease Control and the UK's Natural History Museum.

Doctors said the case, detailed in the New England Journal of Medicine, was "crazy" and unusual.

Colombian doctors had tried to diagnose the 41-year-old man in 2013.

He had what appeared to be normal tumours, some more than 4 cm across, in his lungs, liver and elsewhere in his body.

Researchers, writing in the journal Science, suggest the worm is altering the immune system to make it easier to become pregnant.

Experts said the findings could lead to "novel fertility enhancing drugs".

The Truth About Caffeine and Blood Pressure

Coffee gets a bad rap. One perennial argument against the so-called vice: It spikes your blood pressure. 

Hypertension is nothing to take lightly. It puts you at risk for stroke and heart attacks, two of the biggest killers of men.

But here’s the thing: Coffee doesn’t raise your risk for hypertension, which is a chronic increase in blood pressure. It only jolts your B.P. for a few hours after drinking it—and even then, only in people who rarely drink it, says Italian researcher Giuseppe Grosso, M.D., Ph.D.
