We’ve rounded up all the latest stories from Australia and around the world – so you don’t have to go searching.

1. Mum comes out of coma to discover she has a baby.

An American woman who was five months pregnant when she was involved in a car accident has woken from a four-month coma to find she has a baby boy.

Doctors told 20-year-old Sharista Giles’s family she would never wake up, but the Tennessee woman opened her eyes this week, ABC News reports.

Doctors were forced to deliver the baby – who is yet to be named but is referred to as ‘Baby L’ – prematurely in January.

Ms Giles’ prognosis is not yet know, but she was reportedly able to follow a picture of her baby with her eyes.

Her family hopes the pair can meet as soon as Baby L is able to leave the neonatal intensive care unit at Tennessee Medical Center.

2. Head of prestigious Victorian private school quits over pornography scandal.

The head of prestigious private school The Geelong College has resigned after a picture of him watching pornography on his office computer was shared on social media site Snapchat.

The photograph of respected principal Andrew Barr watching adult pornography at the school was taken through a window and shared widely.

Mr Barr offered his resignation last week, three days after the school council became aware of the photograph, Geelong Advertiser reports.

Geelong College Council chairman Dr Hugh Seward said the incident breached the school standards, but did not break any laws or compromise the care provided to the students.

3. Father of 12-year-old child bride has bail revoked.

A father charged with procuring his 12-year-old daughter for sex with her “husband” has been remanded in custody after having his bail revoked.

The girl, now 13, was married by a sheikh to a 26-year-old man in January last year. She was then encouraged to have sex with her husband, and eventually miscarried after falling pregnant with his child. Her husband is currently serving a jail sentence of at least seven-and-a-half years.

The 63-year-old father was found guilty of child sex crimes last week, but today, the NSW Supreme Court decided to revoke his bail.

While the father had not broken the terms of his bail, the court found he did not have reasonable evidence to show why he shouldn’t be detained, ABC News reports.

He will remain in jail until his sentence is handed down on May 29.

4. French broadcaster TV5Monde back on air after ISIS cyber attack.

France’s TV5Monde has resumed operations after self-proclaimed Islamic State militants shut down television transmissions and took over the channel’s website and social media platforms to protest against French military action in Iraq.

Authorites labelled the hack a “terrorist act” and warned media companies to be wary of further attacks, The Sydney Morning Herald reports.

The cyber hack, described by TV5Monde boss Yves Bigot as “unprecedented in the history of television”, forced the channel to air prerecorded programs for most of Thursday.

The French Government vowed to track down those responsible for the “vile and cowardly” attack on freedom of expression.

5. Free breast screenings to be offered to women over 70.

Health Minister Sussan Ley has announced free breast screenings will now be extended to women aged 70 to 74.

Currently, the mammogram program finishes when women reach 69.

The government is estimating an additional 220,000 breast screens will be delivered over four years at a cost of $55 million.

It could detect a further 600 breast cancers per year.

“Ageing is a strong risk factor for breast cancer. Of the 15,000 Australian women who will be diagnosed with breast cancer, three out of four will be aged 50 years or over,” Cancer Australia chief executive Professor Helen Zorbas said.
