Gotta be an unusual event: Last Wednesday, LAVINIA "Lavi" MOUNGA was flying from Salt Lake City to Honolulu when she gave birth to a baby boy. The unusual part: she didn't even know she was pregnant! Lavi was apparently just 28 weeks along, and fortunately for her, a doctor from Hawaii and three neonatal intensive care unit nurses from North Kansas City Hospital were also on board the jet. “I don't know how a patient gets so lucky as to have three neonatal intensive care nurses onboard the same flight when she is in emergency labor,” said Dr. DALE GLENN, “The great thing about this was the teamwork. Everybody jumped in together, and everyone helped out." Lavi's new son is named RAYMOND and will be staying in the Kapi'olani Medical Center for Women & Children in Honolulu until he’s ready to go home.

Broadway's back --NY Gov. ANDREW CUOMO announced yesterday that Broadway productions will be allowed to reopen on May 19. Theatres have been closed now for over a year, and although the theatres will be reopening, it may take a little time for them to fill them, since they must get the cast back and sell the tickets.
