Taylor Swift has made a surprise stop at a Kansas City children’s hospital, shocking parents and patients alike as she laughed with them, posed for photos and exchanged gifts. All parent Cassie Thomas was told beforehand was that she might want to brush her hair and teeth because there was going to be a special visitor. But she was stunned when Swift, fresh off her Eras Tour and one day before her 35th birthday, walked into her son's son Beckett Thomas' room on Thursday at Children’s Mercy Hospital in Kansas City. “No rumors. Like, we literally had absolutely no idea this was happening,” Thomas recalled. Her 13-year-old son, Beckett Thomas, is a cancer patient and a fan of Swift's Kansas City Chiefs tight-end boyfriend, Travis Kelce. Beckett uses a 3D printer to make earrings bearing his and Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes' names, walking around the hospital unit selling them to nurses. Now, Swift has a pair as well. “She was amazing,” Beckett's mom said. “So down to earth.” Another patient told Swift that her favorite song was “Love Story" and had some questions about San Francisco quarterback Brock Purdy, whose team played the Chiefs in the Super Bowl earlier this year. Surprised, Taylor, muttered: “Brock Purdy, What? I mean, I don’t mind Brock Purdy.” She then continued: “He put me through a lot last February.” Asked before the Super Bowl whether he was prepared to disappoint Swift, Purdy responded: “Yes.” The game ended with Mahomes rallying the Chiefs to second straight Super Bowl title, 25-22 over the 49ers in overtime. “I was very stressed for a second but it all ended up fine,” Swift told the girl, their recorded conversation posted online. The girl then chimed in: “I like Travis now.” Swift responded with: “Me too. That’s an absolute yes on that one." There is no word on whether Swift will be in the stands when the Chiefs play the Browns on Sunday in Kelce’s hometown of Cleveland.

1 2 Lucknow: Acknowledging that prevention is a pillar of hope to save human lives from the threat of cardiovascular diseases , Union defence minister Rajnath Singh on Friday said that healthcare costs impose a significant economic strain globally, especially for low and middle-income countries. "There is a critical need for a robust preventive cardiology framework . In fact, prevention is the primary armour and pillar of hope to combat India's CVD burden. Early detection, lifestyle modifications and widespread awareness programmes are essential to reduce the burden of CVD, particularly among younger individuals who are increasingly at risk," he said, speaking at CSI's 76th annual conference fellowship programme. The fellowship was awarded to 15 doctors from across the country. Welcoming the delegates as the MP of Lucknow, he said that CVDs remain a significant global public health issue and expressed concern over the extent of the problem in India. "CVD is the leading cause of mortality worldwide, and India is no exception, with an estimated 30 million patients suffering from coronary artery disease. In addition to the numbers, the early onset of disease in India, its urban-rural divide, needs of specific groups like the elderly, and dire shortage of cardiologists (just one for one lakh population) complicate it further," he said. Calling upon CSI, he added: "The circumstances in India make prevention extremely pertinent. Greater emphasis on preventive cardiology, including lifestyle modifications and risk factor management, is needed. Efforts must be made alongside to expand tele-cardiology and find cost-effective ways to treat patients." Mentioning that the Indian govt was trying its best to extend the best quality healthcare services to the people, he said: "A number of public health initiatives have been launched. But the govt's contribution needs the support of the medical fraternity, community and every individual to make India's present and future generations truly healthy." Singh said that in his role as defence minister, he realised that one of the most vulnerable and challenging parts is to keep the entire defence force disease-free. "This is because the personnel in the armed forces work 24x7x365 days, in very volatile scenarios and under extremely difficult climatic conditions. Also, man-made threats from our neighbours in the region are also there. Aware of the challenges, the Indian govt earmarked Rs 6.2 lakh crore for the 2024-25 fiscal's defence budget, which is being used for the overall upkeep of the forces encompassing the upgradating of capacity building, induction of modern technology, and the healthcare of the defence forces. The primal area of concern is the health of our forces, which needs to be reviewed from time to time; in which cardiovascular and diabetes are seen as major contributors," he said. Addressing the fellowship awardees, he said: "Today marks a significant milestone in your journey as cardiologists. But with great power comes great responsibility. Remember to always put your patients first, to listen to their concerns, to empathise with their struggles, and to provide them with compassionate and evidence-based care."

NoneHERE’S Lewis Hamilton’s new company car. Ferrari 12Cilindri . Dang. When Lewis clocked in at Ferrari on Monday morning, I’d like to think he was straight on the blower for one of these. Naked V12. Wrapped in a polarising designer suit. Right up his street. Now the Italians pronounce 12Cilindri as Dodici Cilindri. Doe-dee-chee. Or don’t-ditch-it. Thankfully, I didn’t. But I did give it a damned good thrashing at Goodyear’s private test track. READ MORE ROAD TESTS The bonnet bulges like Santa’s sack because it houses a blockbuster 6.5-litre naturally-aspirated V12 that thumps out 830 horses and revs to 9,500rpm. Eighty per cent of torque is available from 2,500rpm. You can imagine the noise. You can imagine the speed. You can imagine the smell of everything getting hot. Most read in Motors Ten out of ten. No notes. Actually, scratch that, dodici out of 10. No notes. The late great Enzo Ferrari once said: “When you buy a Ferrari, you pay for the engine and I will give the rest of the car free.” He’d like 12Cilindri. It’s the only car in the world that looks as good with its bonnet open as it does closed. Brakes are like anchors Take a moment to drink in its beauty. As you would expect from Ferrari, there’s all sorts of trick aero and F1 wizardry going on here to keep things shiny side up. Yet the silhouette of this two-seat berlinetta is simple and sophisticated. Basically, 12Cilindri succeeds the 812 Superfast. But it’s better. The aluminium spaceframe chassis is stiffer. The wheelbase is a smidge shorter. Gear shifts are quicker. The brakes are like anchors. It needs them. You could pay extra for a Burmester sound system. But that would be silly. That howling V12 is the only music you need. It has four-wheel steering and something very Ferrari called Slide Slip Control 8.0 which measures grip levels, even on snotty roads in normal use — and not just on the limit. Now you’re probably thinking race-bred driving thrills equals chiropractor on speed dial. Actually, no. The cockpit is surprisingly comfy with massaging and ventilated seats to soothe your bones. The big glass roof adds to the feeling of space. Three digital screens carry loads of technology including a letterbox-shaped co-driver’s display. But there’s more fun to be had behind the tiller. We like the chunky gearshift paddles. We like the glow-up rev lights on the steering wheel. We like the red F1-style switch to adjust the suspension and attack mode settings. You could pay extra for a Burmester sound system. But that would be silly. That howling V12 is the only music you need. To conclude, then. The £336k Ferrari 12Cilindri is Ferrari at its brilliant best. When you want to play, it is totally up for it. When you stop for a rest, it is Instagram gold.
