Baby girl in India born with two faces

[Gigacore]

A baby in India was born with two faces — two sets of eyes, two noses, two lips — and she's breathing and eating normally, her parents say. She's living in a mud-and-brick house in Noida, about 50 kilometres northeast of New Delhi, the daughter of a young factory worker and his wife, who say they're not seeking further medical help because a doctor said everything was working normally for their infant when she was born.
According to her father: "She's fed through one mouth and sucks her thumb with the other. We use whichever mouth is free to feed her."

The birth has attracted attention in this religious Hindu-majority country, with some declaring the baby a deity. Reuters reports:

Doctors said it was an extremely rare case, with the girl having two skulls joined together, and separating them was out of the question.
"Since the heads are fused, separating them is not possible," Dr. D.K Gupta, a pediatrician at the All India Institute of Medical Sciences, told the Hindustan Times newspaper.
But doctors said the girl should be examined thoroughly to study the possibility of complications.
​

The case comes just months after Indian doctors performed a rare marathon surgery to remove the extra limbs of a girl born with four arms and legs. Lakshmi Tatma started taking her first steps with the help of a baby walker.

really???

On a lighter note...
Man!... i didn't know that even the almighty was done with single core processors... now he's using only dual core processors in some of his new configs...

 

[Gigacore]

no, not a giga core baby plz

and btw here in karnataka syllabus is increasing every year. Dunno about other states, and its becoming more complicated as well (usual)

 

[Faun]

really???

we studied double salt analysis(finding 2 cations and 2 anions) in chemistry prac 11th and then our junior batch got it reduced to single salt (finding 1 cation 1 anion).

Even some chapters from English book were scraped.


There was no way one can find all 4 ions in practical exams (you can easily find 3 ions but 1 was always a guess coz of impurities).

 

[jithudigitised]

well she will be in the news channel for a while...and then people will forget her..
Hope she does fine and live a normal life..

you are basing this for telling the people who are studying now are doing less...
When we did biology, there was nothing more than frog dissection, at least in my times.. Now there is a fish dissection and rat dissection and stuffs... I din't know C programming until I was in college. But now, its unimaginable.

The books are twice as big even for state boards, let alone the ICSE and CBSE boards... They are learning linear algebra in schools and introduced to quantum theory. And they are learning what I learnt in a particular class at ages/classes lesser than that!!

^^I have taught some 12th class students the whole syllabus(CBSE 2008) and IMO it was a lot easier (if anything is not to come in exam then it is cleanly separated by a box). The subjects were P,C and CS.

And why the syllabus for 9th and 10th was changed ? Cuz it was to build a foundation for what is already in 11th and 12th. People found it quite uncomfortable to get used to jargon in 11th and 12th without a proper base in 9th and 10th.

^ ^ we will have this argument when the time comes when some1 starts this topic in chit chat or fight club

to stay on topic, I am sorry for that girl because, she is going to be looked different through out her life and its not long before she loses her endurance limit. Besides, I don't know, something tells me, her life is going to be much shorter
