Canadian Model Dies At 76 After Suspected Carbon Monoxide Poisoning

Dayle Haddon, a renowned Canadian supermodel who gained international recognition for her work with prominent cosmetic and magazine brands, has died at 76. The cause of death is suspected to be carbon monoxide poisoning according to a report by ABC 6, She was found unresponsive in a Pennsylvania home owned by her daughter, Ryan Haddon, a journalist, and son-in-law, Marc Blucas, a Hallmark actor.

The incident happened on Friday morning when first responders rushed to a property after receiving a distress call at 6:30 am. Upon arrival, they found an unconscious 76-year-old man on the first floor, who was removed from the building and taken to a nearby hospital. However, responders soon discovered that 76-year-old Dayle Haddon was still inside the property. Despite efforts to save her, Haddon was tragically pronounced dead at the scene.

Authorities believe that the source of the leak was a defective boiler heating unit. "It is believed a heating unit, a boiler unit, is the source of the carbon monoxide. The initial readings on EMS and fire company arrival were extremely high, so we're treating this as a carbon monoxide poisoning incident," Det. Sgt. Jonathan Koretzky of the Solebury Twp. Police Department said in a statement. 

Born and raised in Montreal, Dayle Haddon was fluent in both English and French. Initially, she pursued a career in ballet, but fate had other plans. Haddon's striking looks and charisma soon catapulted her to fame as a model, with prestigious clients like Revlon, Estee Lauder, Clairol, and Max Factor. Her stunning features also graced the cover of Vogue magazine multiple times, cementing her status as a supermodel.

Her website states that she was also a spokesperson for L'Oreal for over 15 years, an ambassador for UNICEF, and the founder of WomenOne, a charitable organization that focuses on the education of girls and women.

"The bright light that is Dayle has dimmed in this Earthly realm. Shining somewhere as radiantly as ever where it's most needed, I have no doubt. She was a woman in her power, yet soft and attentive to all. Deeply creative and curious, gifted with beauty inside and out. Always kind and thoughtful," Mr Ryan posted in a tribute on Friday.

Sri Lanka Must Achieve Debt Restructuring By September: IMF

The International Monetary Fund on Tuesday reaffirmed that Sri Lanka must achieve its debt restructuring process by September, which is also the time for the global lender's formal review of the bailout facility it extended to the cash-strapped nation. On March 20, IMF extended a nearly $3 billion bailout facility to debt-ridden Sri Lanka that would help stabilise the country's economy after it was jolted by a devastating economic crisis last year. In a statement issued on Tuesday at the end of a nearly two weeks staff visit to Colombo to assess the progress made by Sri Lanka since the agreement was reached, the IMF said the two sides had discussed the developments on debt restructuring. "Sri Lanka must achieve debt restructuring by its first review due in September. We also discussed progress on debt restructuring, noting the ongoing discussions with both foreign and domestic creditors," the statement read. Sri Lanka is still struggling to normalise its crisis-hi...

Biden's comments as he appeared on ABC chat show "The View" came as Israel put troops on alert for possible entry into Lebanon and the war in Gaza grinds on. "An all-out war is possible," Biden said when asked about the situation. "What I think is, also, the opportunity is still in play to have a settlement that could fundamentally change the whole region." Biden appeared to raise the possibility of a ceasefire in Lebanon, where Israeli strikes targeting the Hezbollah militia have killed more than 600 people this week. "They have a possibility -- I don't want to exaggerate it -- there's a possibility if we can deal with a ceasefire in Lebanon that it can move into dealing with the West Bank as well," said Biden. Israel has been carrying ...

This level of physical activity is not unusual among Tsimanes of her age. Researchers have discovered that this group has the healthiest arteries ever studied and brains that age more slowly than those in North America, Europe and elsewhere. The Tsimanes' secret lies in their active lifestyle, with an average of 16,000 to 17,000 steps per day. They spend less than 10 percent of daylight hours in sedentary activ...
