Soldiers at firing range 'died after tank expolsion'

3:36 م منوعات , 0 Comments













Two British soldiers died after their tank exploded on a firing range during a training exercise, a coroner has heard.

Emergency services were called to a "mechanical explosion" on Castlemartin range in Pembrokeshire, Wales on 14 June.

Corporals Matthew Hatfield and Darren Neilson of the Royal Tank Regiment, died from their injuries.

Louise Hunt, senior coroner for Birmingham and Solihull, was told at the inquest opening that the provisional cause of death for Cpl Hatfield was "burns", while Cpl Neilson suffered a cardiac arrest after sustaining blast-related injuries.

The men were taken to separate hospitals but died the following day.

Mr Evans said: "At 3.30pm on Wednesday, 14 June, the emergency services were summoned to a mechanical explosion at Castlemartin - it's an MoD firing range, in Pembrokeshire.

"Prior to that, a training exercise had been taking place. Four men were taken to hospital as a result, and two have since passed away.

"An investigation has since commenced to look into the circumstances of the incident."

A police-led joint investigation with the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) and a separate Ministry of Defence service inquiry are currently under way to identify the circumstances.

Mr Evans said the MoD Defence Safety Authority had started its investigation on 27 June and was not expected to finish until February next year.

Castlemartin Range, spread over 5,930 acres (2,400 hectares), is used to carry out direct-fire live gunnery exercises for tanks and armoured vehicles.

Both of the men who died were gunnery instructors and had served in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Okja: A genetic super pig and the environment

2:49 م منوعات , 0 Comments

streaming giant Netflix has released Okja, a film that could be the world's first ecological action movie. Speaking to the BBC's Heather Chen from Seoul, director Bong Joon-ho talked about environmentalism and nature, and how "selective ignorance" and corporate greed were often related.
Cautionary tales are not new to Bong Joon-ho's audiences, who are familiar with his style of weaving hidden messages into the cinematic narrative.
The famed South Korean filmmaker is celebrated for combining action and horror genres with dark bite.

Cannes: Netflix film Okja stopped after technical glitch
This giant pig will make you think twice about eating meat
His 2014 post-apocalyptic thriller Snowpiercer inferred much political meaning, displaying the worst of society's imbalances on a high-speed dystopian train.
And there was an environmental message to his 2006 breakout hit The Host, which told the story of a mutated fishy creature that wreaked havoc in the streets of Seoul. The monster was created after radioactive waste was dumped on a US military base.
OkjaHis latest vision Okja continues that green parable. A bittersweet story about animals and humans, it centres around a lovable super-pig that's touted as an organic, ecologically-sound "revolution in the livestock industry".
"All my films have different stories, some share common themes. But as a storyteller, I want to explore new worlds," Bong said.
With Welsh journalist and screenwriter Jon Ronson (himself a vegetarian), they raise the uncomfortable question: where does one's meat come from?
*Warning: Spoilers below*
The story unfolds with young Mija, a farm girl played by actress An Seo-huyn who lives in the lush mountains of South Korea with her grandfather and their beloved genetically-engineered pig, Okja (an old-fashioned South Korean name without a specific meaning).
The bond between girl and beast is sweet and strong but their peaceful life together sadly doesn't last long.
With the arrival of washed-up celebrity zoologist Dr Johnny Wilcox (Jake Gyllenhaal) and his team, Okja is taken away from her family and thrust back into the hands of her creators, the Mirando meat corporation led by Orwellian nightmare CEO Lucy Mirando (Tilda Swinton) where her unfortunate fate is sealed.

This is no Disney fairytale and the story shifts to Manhattan ("the heart of capitalism," according to Bong) where it takes a darker turn, foraying into the hellish realities of animal laboratories and factory meat farms.
"We create psychological border-lines to avoid discomforts, so we separate our views of animals," Bong said.


"Those we perceive as pets and the ones we place in our shopping carts are the same animals but we choose to separate them."
But to enjoy the meat, you have to ignore the slaughter. Inspiration for his film's graphic scenes came from a personal visit he made to a commercial slaughterhouse. Depicting this was "absolutely necessary".
"I wanted to crumble these borders and make the audience feel uncomfortable. It is witnessing your family being dragged into a slaughterhouse," he said.
"Compared to my experience of visiting a real-life slaughterhouse, the film scenes were much milder and were expressed in a toned-down manner."
A genetically-modified best friend
Okja's physical appearance gives a nod to the controversial genetically modified foods (GMO) debate. She is special: a one-nipple, hippo-pig hybrid with some manatee resemblance (since they look "incredibly innocent and kind-hearted", Bong says).
"I wanted Okja to be cute. Big yet lovely, shy and introverted. But she is a genetically modified organism and this debate is not restricted to Korea, it is prevalent all over the world," Bong said.
The environment may have been a running theme but sinister notions of capitalism, greed and the global economy also played a role.
"They'll eat it if it's cheap," snaps CEO Lucy Mirando in a telling scene after she's confronted with hesitations about public discomfort surrounding her organisation's meat products.
"It is reasonable to fear the potential disasters and dangers that genetically-modified foods may bring," Bong said.
"There are people who say the danger of GM foods is being overly exaggerated but nobody is able to prove their safety either."
But Bong insists Okja isn't intended to be a fiery screen statement against eating animals.
"In my movie, Mija's favorite food is chicken stew. I didn't make this film to oppose meat. Whether one is vegan or not is a matter of individual choice," Bong explained, adding that he wanted audiences to "witness and understand" how meat was being mass produced.
"We coexist with animals and we should take time to consider their perspective. How we treat them today is a very recent phenomenon and came to be only after we included them in mass production," he said.
"This is the state of capitalism today and this is what I wanted to convey."
Okja is available on Netflix from 28 June and is on limited cinema release.v

Sarah Palin sues New York Times for defamation

2:25 م منوعات , 0 Comments
Former Republican vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin is suing the New York Times for accusing her of incitement in a mass shooting.
In the defamation case, Mrs Palin says the newspaper published a statement about her that it "knew to be false".
A 14 June editorial appeared to tie Mrs Palin to a 2011 shooting spree that left congresswoman Gabby Giffords seriously wounded and six others dead.
Mrs Palin is reportedly seeking more than $75,000 (£58,000) in damages.
The former Alaska governor's lawyers argue "the Times' conduct was committed knowingly, intentionally, wilfully, wantonly and maliciously, with the intent to harm Mrs Palin".
The lawsuit says the newspaper displayed "blatant disregard of the substantial likelihood of causing her harm, thereby entitling Mrs Palin to an award of punitive damages".
The legal action, filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, argues the publication "violated the law and its own policies".
The editorial, headlined "America's Lethal Politics", was published on the day a gunman opened fire on Republican congressmen as they played baseball in Alexandria, Virginia, critically injuring a Louisiana legislator.
The article said an advert from Mrs Palin's political action committee had placed "Giffords and 19 other Democrats under stylized cross hairs".
A day later, the New York Times issued a correction, noting that "no such link was established" between the Palin ad and the shooting of Gabby Giffords in Arizona.
The newspaper also conceded that the ad in question "depicted electoral districts, not individual Democratic lawmakers, beneath stylized cross hairs".
But the New York Times maintained the error did not "undercut or weaken the argument of the piece".

Mrs Palin said the newspaper's response "did not approach the degree of the retraction and apology necessary and warranted by The Times's false assertion that Mrs Palin incited murder".
In a statement, Danielle Rhoades Ha, a spokeswoman for the New York Times, said: "We have not reviewed the claim yet but will defend against any claim vigorously."
Mrs Palin's legal team includes Kenneth Turkel and Shane Vogt, who represented Hulk Hogan as he won $115m in a lawsuit against Gawker Media Group.
In the aftermath of the 2011 shooting, Mrs Palin described suggestions that she was somehow to blame for the Giffords shooting as a "blood libel".

Mika Brzezinski-Trump row: White House accused of smear threat

2:17 م منوعات , 0 Comments


Two TV presenters attacked on Twitter by President Donald Trump have accused him of lying and suggested the White House tried to blackmail them.
The hosts of MSNBC Morning Joe said they were warned a tabloid would run a negative story on them unless they said sorry for their coverage of Mr Trump.
Mika Brzezinski and Joe Scarborough said Mr Trump's tweets were "vicious" and "frightening".
The president called them "low IQ crazy Mika" and "Psycho Joe" on Thursday.
He also referred to Ms Brzezinski as "bleeding badly from a facelift".
The couple, who are engaged to be married, wrote a joint response in Friday's Washington Post accusing the president of an "unhealthy obsession" with them.

A story escalating - Anthony Zurcher, BBC News, Washington

What started yesterday as an undignified personal spat between Donald Trump and the hosts of a cable news show has morphed into something much more sinister - allegations of White House machinations that tread ever so close to outright blackmail.
If what Mika Brzezinski and Joe Scarborough say is true, they were the targets of political dark arts reminiscent of the schemes of the Watergate "fixers" during the Nixon White House. Could Trump aides have really used the threat of an embarrassing story in a tabloid newspaper to pressure the two hosts to provide more favourable coverage?
The Trump administration will surely deny the charges, although the president himself lent some corroboration by tweeting that Scarborough asked him to tell the National Enquirer to bury an article about him.
That the president said he rejected such a request only raises more questions about the editorial control Mr Trump may have over a newspaper that routinely targeted his political opponents in 2016.
Where this story goes from here is anyone's guess. Chances are, however, that the president - via his unchecked Twitter megaphone - will only add fuel to the fire.
They denied his claims they had spent three nights at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida last New Year's Eve and that they had "insisted" on spending time with him.
Instead they said they turned down his invitation to attend his festive party.
They continued: "Putting aside Mr Trump's never-ending obsession with women's blood, Mika and her face were perfectly intact, as pictures from that night reveal."
On their morning show, Ms Brzezinski denied having had a face-lift, saying she had a procedure to get the skin under her chin "tweaked".
The TV presenters also said three White House officials had told them the National Enquirer would publish a negative article about them unless they apologised to Mr Trump for their scrutiny of him.
Mr Scarborough said: "They said, 'if you call the president up and you apologise for your coverage then he'll pick up the phone and basically spike the story.'"
"I had, I will just say, three people at the very top of the administration calling me."
Ms Brzezinski said reporters from the supermarket tabloid began harassing her family.

The TV presenters also said three White House officials had told them the National Enquirer would publish a negative article about them unless they apologised to Mr Trump for their scrutiny of him.
Mr Scarborough said: "They said, 'if you call the president up and you apologise for your coverage then he'll pick up the phone and basically spike the story.'"
"I had, I will just say, three people at the very top of the administration calling me."
Ms Brzezinski said reporters from the supermarket tabloid began harassing her family.
Mr Scarborough swiftly hit back: "Yet another lie. I have texts from your top aides and phone records. Also, those records show I haven't spoken with you in many months."
Mr Scarborough also said that a "well-known congressman" had told him that the president went on a "rant" against the show during a meeting with around 20 legislators at the White House to discuss efforts to pass healthcare legislation.
"I've been in politics my whole life. … He scared me," Mr Scarborough said, describing what the source had told him.
"Because he was vicious when he turned from you to Mika," he described being told.
"His face was red. He started talking about blood coming out of her ears, out of her eyes."
The Enquirer's owner said on Friday morning the tabloid had published a story at the beginning of June about the couple's relationship "the truth of which is not in dispute".
Dylan Howard, vice-president of the publication's parent company, added in the statement: "We have no knowledge of any discussions between the White House and Joe and Mika about our story, and absolutely no involvement in those discussions."
The Enquirer's Twitter account retweeted their article on Friday, with a headline about "Morning Joe Couple's Sleazy Cheating Scandal!"
Mr Trump's original tweet about the MSNBC hosts provoked a storm of criticism, including even from some fellow Republicans.
Senator Lindsey Graham said Mr Trump's remarks on Thursday were "beneath the office" of president.
"Please just stop. This isn't normal," tweeted fellow Republican Senator Ben Sasse.
The Democratic leader in the House of Representatives, Nancy Pelosi, called Mr Trump's tweets "sexist, an assault on the freedom of the press & an insult to all women".
The White House sprang to Mr Trump's defence.
"I don't think that the president has ever been someone that gets attacked and doesn't push back," spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders told Fox News.
In a previous spat with journalist Megyn Kelly, Mr Trump referred to "blood coming out of her wherever", implying her work was being affected by her menstrual cycle.
The Morning Joe co-presenters have increasingly attacked President Trump since he took office.
In recent weeks, Mr Scarborough has called him a "bumbling dope", while Ms Brzezinski has called him "phony", a "narcissist" and accused him of "destroying the country".
Ms Brzezinski is the daughter of the late Zbigniew Brzezinski, who was President Jimmy Carter's national security adviser, while Mr Scarborough is a former Republican congressman

US teen birth rate drops to all-time lo

2:08 م منوعات , 0 Comments

In the United States, teen-aged moms are increasingly rare. In 2016, the teen birth rate dropped 9% compared to the previous year, a  new   found. This record low for teens having babies continues a long-term trend.
The birth rate among teen girls has dropped 67% since 1991, according to the National Center for Health Statistics, which presented preliminary data for 2016 based on a majority (99.9%) of births.
In 2016, the number of US births totaled 3,941,109, a decline of 1% compared to 2015. The fertility rate of 62 births per 1,000 women is a record low for the nation.
The teen rate is a "phenomenal decline," said Dr. Elise Berlan, a physician in the section of adolescent medicine at Nationwide Children's Hospital. Berlan, who did not conduct this research, said the reason she's so excited is "because we know that the vast majority of teen births are unintended."
What's fueling the declines?
"Data [from previous years] really suggests it is access to contraceptives and use of contraceptives that has really led to these kind of changes," said Berlan, who noted that "most teens are using some form of birth control" and the top method is "the condom, followed by withdrawal and the pill."
Older moms
On the flip side, the increase in births to older moms is also important, said Martin.
For women between the ages of 30 and 34, the birth rate increased by 1% over 2015 -- the highest rate for this age group since 1964. The birth rate for women who are between 35 and 39 is up 2% over 2015, representing the highest rate since 1962.
Even older women, those between the ages of 40 and 44, showed a swelling increase of 4% over 2015 -- the highest rate for this group since 1966, according to the statisticians, while the rate of birth for women who are older than 45 is also a record high though the number of births remains essentially unchanged compared to last year.
Joyce A. Martin, a co-author of the report and lead statistician, also noted the declining rate of nonmarital births -- births to people who aren't legally married -- in 2016, which fell 3% compared to the previous year.
The report, first in a new annual series, provided additional vital statistics.
Prenatal care
Three out of four woman got prenatal care in their first trimester, noted Michelle J.K. Osterman, a co-author of the report and statistician. That said, 6.2% of pregnant women in 2016 had late prenatal care (beginning in the third trimester) or no prenatal care.
"In a perfect world, every woman would get early prenatal care," said Osterman. She noted that "2016 is the first year for which we have national data" measuring prenatal care, so there can be no comparisons to previous years.
The percentage of women receiving prenatal care beginning in the first trimester of pregnancy ranged from 51.9% for non-Hispanic native Hawaiian and other Pacific Islanders women to 82.3% for non-Hispanic white women. Nearly 81% of Asian women also received prenatal care, while 72% of Hispanic and 67% of non-Hispanic black women did the same.

Nearly 81% of Asian women also received prenatal care, while 72% of Hispanic and 67% of non-Hispanic black women did the same.
Verbiest worries that Hispanic women may be adopting some of the "not healthy habits in this country," including unhealthy eating and lifestyle, while also being affected by "community stress that isn't good for pregnant women."
This is the second year in a row for an undesirable rate of low birth weights, noted Verbiest.
"It's not the direction we want it to go," said Verbiest. "We know that the outcomes for babies who are too thin and too small are not as good -- they start life out like a step behind" children who are born at a normal weight at full-term, about nine months.
The preterm birth rate -- when a baby is born more than three weeks before a full nine month pregnancy -- also rose for American women overall. Preterm births can lead to poor health for babies.

Access to care
Both Verbiest and Berlan see access to health care as crucial to achieving the best results for women's health, particularly pregnancy and birth.
"Putting restrictions on teens' access to birth control could really have some profound effects on unintended births in those folks," said Berlan. The hospital where she works requires parental consent for teen patients since her home state of Ohio lacks a statute protecting a minor's right to access contraception confidentially.
"We certainly see teen girls and young women coming to the office with their parents. And that's really just a wonderful thing to work with a mom-daughter [pair] on these important decisions," said Berlan.
"The other side of it, though, is a lot of teens need confidential access to birth control and it's important to preserve that," said Berlan.
The "significant differences in how babies are getting a start in life" speaks to "larger issues," such as health care access, that need to be dealt with by our society, said Verbiest. "All of our sweet babies and families should get to have the best start."
