An Israeli plastic surgeon has developed an "internal bra" that will give women the kind of lift and shape they want without having to wear a bra, London's Daily Mail reported.

Dr. Eyal Gur designed the "Cup & Up" device, which takes 40 minutes to insert in an outpatient procedure.

"We've shown that that with a very small operation it's possible to give a woman an internal bra that she can have for the rest of her life," Gur said, adding that women won't need any additional support, unless they are playing a sport.

The "cup," which is made of silicone, is inserted under the skin with a small incision. Doctors attach "straps" in between the breast and shoulder to hold the "cup" in place.

The bra is made by Orbix Medical, and manufacturers said the surgery is less expensive than traditional breast augmentation.

PARALYMPIAN Kurt Fearnley crawled the Kokoda Track and he ended up doing the same through an airport terminal - and to a bathroom - after Jetstar staff refused to allow him to use his own wheelchair.

Fearnley, 28, was told the airline's policy was to take some wheelchairs from disabled people to check in as baggage and offered him a less-mobile wheelchair. He did not want to be pushed around the airport.

Two fingers cut from the hand of Italian astronomer Galileo nearly 300 years ago have been rediscovered more than a century after they were last seen, an Italian museum director said Monday.

They were purchased recently at an auction by a person who brought them to the Museum of the History of Science in Florence, suspecting what they were, museum director Paolo Galluzzi said
