Baby Born in New Hampshire Motor Speedway Parking Lot

A baby was born in the parking lot of New Hampshire Motor Speedway, but is he going to be a NASCAR fan?

The mother and father to be were heading to the hospital, but once they figured they weren't going to make it, they decided to boogity, boogity, boogity to the parking lot at the famed raceway.

The mother said she and her boyfriend delivered the baby, named Katie (save your Dale and Jr. jokes for later), in their car. An EMT at the track then came to help, and the couple and the baby were taken to a hospital.

Speedway General Manager Jerry Gappens has awarded the baby two tickets to NASCAR races for the rest of her life.

Typhoon Hits Cities in Asia

Typhoon Sanba came ashore South Korea Monday, forcing the evacuation of tens of thousands of people and whipping Jeju Island with heavy rains and high winds.

Sanba, with wind speeds of up to 93 miles per hour and unleashing heavy rains, was moving northeastward at 21 miles per hour.

The Jeju Island, which was the landing spot of Typhoon Bolaven, was again the main target of Sanba's fury that included rains of more than 3 inches per hour. Already Mount Halla on the island has received about 23 inches of rain.

Dozens of residents have suffered flood damage, and more than 10,000 households were left without electricity, the National Emergency Management Agency said.
