One new Russian tech company aims to provide a unique new service helps expecting mothers visualize their developing baby. After getting their tummies scanned with an ultrasound, mothers-to-be can now get that ultrasound data converted into a 3D picture of their as-yet-unborn child, which can then be printed into a full-scale 3D model. A company called Embryo 3D offers the unique service to expecting mothers at their offices in the Russian city of Ufa.
A puppy named Loca suffered severe facial injuries after a dog fight. Parts of her jaw were broken and she wasn't able to eat. Footage provided courtesy of the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine shows how a team of vets designed the Exo-K9 face mask specifically for Loca, a four-month-old Staffordshire bull terrier. She wore the mask for several months after vets performed surgery and made a full recovery.
Nina Kolykhalova proved just how far a grandma's love can go by committing to six years of helping her blind granddaughter Anastasia finish both bachelors and masters degrees. Nina lived in the student dorm with Anastasia and would attend classes and even read to her granddaughter from text books because braille editions didn't exist at that time.
