Quick Glance: World’s oldest conjoined twins, Lori and George, pass away at 62 years old
  • Twins George and Lori Schappell, previously holding the title as the world’s oldest living conjoined twins, have passed away.

  • On April 7, George and Lori passed away at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, as documented by Guinness World Records. The exact cause of death remains unknown.

  • Through exceptional schedule management and willingness to compromise, the siblings managed to harmonize life and passion. Lori worked in a hospital laundry unit, and George's musical performances occasionally took them abroad.

  • According to Mayo Clinic, conjoined twins form when an early embryo only partially separates to create two individuals.

How an earthquake can throw the body and brain off-balance
Quick Glance: Magnitude 4.8 Earthquake Rocks New York City and Northeast US
  • An unusual East Coast earthquake startled millions from New York to rural New England. Over 42 million people may have felt the midmorning quake with a preliminary magnitude of 4.8.

  • While causing no widespread damage, the earthquake led to evacuations in Newark, New Jersey, and infrastructure inspections across the region. Flights were diverted, trains slowed, and tunnel traffic stopped.

  • Although no major damages were reported, the earthquake caused some disruptions. The area near the epicenter experienced minor effects, including the collapse of a historic site. There were also over a dozen aftershocks reported in the region.

  • President Joe Biden offered assistance, while New York City reported no major safety or infrastructure issues. Engineers emphasized that New York skyscrapers are made of high-strength materials and designed to sway slowly to withstand impacts. Even the delicately placed eggs in a sculpture at a Chinatown art gallery remained unharmed during the quake.
