Lawmakers weigh creating commission that would monitor EMS services in Massachusetts
Massachusetts lawmakers are taking a closer look at the state's emergency medical services and a mother who couldn't get an ambulance to respond when her daughter was dying testified in favor of the decision on Wednesday. Lawmakers are considering whether to create a commission that would look at EMS services statewide, including their funding, response times, staffing and recruitment issues. 2-year-old died without ambulance In January 2024, Andrea Feeley's 2-year-old daughter, Yuna, stopped breathing and went into cardiac arrest at their home in Winthrop. Feeley called for EMS but an ambulance was not readily available. Winthrop's fire chief ended up driving Yuna to Mass General Hospital in his own SUV with crews in the back trying to save her life but she did not make it. At the time, the tragedy sparked a conversation about ambulance services, specifically mutual aid services where Winthrop is required by state law to share with other communities when they need an ambulance. Winthrop Town Manager Tony Marino said the town is "deeply concerned about the impact of the mutual aid system and ambulance availability in the town of Winthrop." Bills call for EMS commission panel At the State House on Wednesday, Feeley said this should never happen to someone again. "I honestly feel, that if an ambulance was available, Yuna would have had a better chance at survival," said Feeley. "We miss her every day." Right now, there are two separate bills in the House and Senate on the matter. Both call for creative a panel of lawmakers, ambulance groups and others to produce a report on EMS services statewide and some possible fixes.

(Video) From Twerking With DOLLA To Surprise Guest Yuna: 5 Highlights From Jay Park's KL Concert
The one and only Jay Park (박재범) was recently in Malaysia for his 'Serenades & Body Rolls' tour. The concert took place at Zepp KL on 14th June, and prior to the performance, we had the opportunity to chat with the singer about his latest album, 'The One You Wanted'. The KL concert proved to be a huge success, with many moments from the show going viral on social media. Since plenty happened both onstage and backstage, here are some of our personal favourite highlights: Twerking with DOLLA As you may know, Jay Park invited Malaysian girl group DOLLA as one of his guest artists to perform at his show. The trio joined him onstage during 'MOMMAE', where they and the idol twerked to the song, and, as you can hear from the video above, fans went wild. 'MWA' Challenge with DOLLA Not only did DOLLA go viral for their twerking performance with Jay Park onstage, but backstage, the group also managed to get the singer to take part in their 'MWA' dance challenge. The 38-year-old performed a simplified version of the challenge with the members, but it was more than enough to get fans excited about the unexpected collaboration. 3. Yuna made a surprise appearance It turns out Jay invited someone other than Joe Flizzow and DOLLA to join him at his KL concert. Fans screamed with excitement when singer-songwriter Yuna made a surprise appearance, joining the K-pop idol onstage to perform their 2019 duet, 'Does She'. The performance instantly went viral on social media, with many expressing that their dream of seeing the duo perform the song live had finally come true. 4. 'Dah Makan Ke Belum?' & 'Aku Cina Kamu' Of course, whenever an international star visits or performs in Malaysia, they often try to learn a few phrases in the national language. Some fans taught the idol how to say 'Have you eaten?' in Malay, and many were delighted to see him making the effort, even if he struggled a little with the pronunciation. Another moment that went viral was when he meant to say 'Aku cinta kamu' to his fans, but accidentally said 'Aku Cina kamu' instead — much to the amusement of many, who found the honest mistake endearing. 5. 'I Love Fat Ass Too' You can always count on fans to bring creative (and sometimes unhinged) signs or placards to their favourite artist's concert. One fan probably had the best night ever after Jay Park noticed their sign and asked if he could show it to the audience. As seen in the video above, the sign read, 'I love a fat ass too,' a cheeky reference to his song 'Need To Know'. He then joked to the crowd about how deep the lyrics are and expressed surprise that no one was crying while listening to it. Which was your favourite moment from the show?
