Hacia el final del primer tiempo, cuando medio estadio Luzhniki comenzó a burlarse a fuerza de insistentes "olé" de la campeona del mundo, hasta el más desprevenido se dio cuenta de que estaba siendo escenario de algo grande. Tres años, 11 meses y tres días después del 1-0 sobre Argentina en la final del Maracaná, el equipo de Joachim Löw demostró que está integrado por humanos. Nada está escrito: ni que Alemania deba ganar su quinto título, ni que México se estrelle otra vez ante el muro del "bien jugado, pero bien perdido". Hirving Lozano, que apenas comenzado el partido había tenido el gol en los pies, fue el héroe del encuentro jugado en Moscú cuando, a los 35 minutos, dejó sin caderas a la defensa alemana y, tras un amague, puso el 1-0 con un tiro bien seco y al primer palo. Los hinchas mexicanos, que fueron hoy mayoría en el estadio más emblemático del deporte ruso, no podían creer lo que estaban viendo, porque el "Tri", que es como llaman a su selección, es conocida por jugar buenos partidos pero quedarse al final sin nada. Las dos veces que México llegó a cuartos en un Mundial, fue jugando como local, en 1970 y 1986, y nunca derrotó a un rival de la envergadura de Alemania en una Copa del Mundo. Está bien presente el recuerdo del 2006 en Leipzig, cuando una gran selección mexicana tenía contra su arco a la Argentina hasta que Maxi Rodríguez solucionó el asunto con un gol para el recuerdo. Alemania, que no perdía en su debut en un Mundial desde el tropiezo de España 82 ante Argelia, venía acostumbrada a pisar fuerte en cada inicio de Copa del Mundo: fue 4-0 a Australia en Sudáfrica 2010 y 4-0 a Portugal en Brasil 2014. "Es decepcionante y una situación a la que no estamos acostumbrados", admitió Löw. "En el próximo partido vamos a tener que jugar mucho mejor". Löw alineó hoy a siete jugadores que fueron parte de la victoria en la final sobre Argentina, pero la apuesta falló: ni Sami Khedira, ni Toni Kroos, ni Thomas Müller rindieron en el nivel acostumbrado. México, que llegó al Mundial en medio de una enorme polémica por la fiesta que todos los jugadores celebraron con 30 "escorts", dejó una muesca importante en la historia: Alemania es la cuarta defensora del título que cae en el partido debut. Ya les sucedió a Argentina en España 82 e Italia 90, a Francia en Corea/Japón 2002 y a España en Brasil 2014. Resumen del partido Alemania - México en el Mundial de Rusia 2018 1:18 Video La diferencia de poderío entre los dos equipos se advertía antes del partido con ver en qué clubes juegan los integrantes de cada selección: en la de Alemania se destacan el Bayern Munich, la Juventus, el Real Madrid y el Paris St. Germain, entre otros, mientras que los hombres de México se desempeñan en el Standard de Lieja, la Real Sociedad, el Eintracht Fráncfort o el West Ham United. Lo que hoy falló claramente en Alemania fue su mediocampo, con el que México se hizo por momentos un festín, lo que dejaba permanentemente mal parada a la defensa del cuatro veces campeón. Lozano y Miguel Layún se destacaron entre los mexicanos, cuyo arquero, el veterano Guillermo Ochoa, salvó el empate alemán tres minutos después de ponerse en ventaja al mandar al travesaño un tiro libre de Kroos. Felices tras el alivio, los hinchas mexicanos cantaban "y ya lo ve, somos locales otra vez" (y con acento argentino. Los alemanes buscaron cambiar la historia en el segundo tiempo, pero ahí México fue fuerte en aquello en lo que históricamente falló: supo sostener el resultado. Por algo el final de partido encontró a Javier "Chicharito" Hernández llorando de alegría sobre el césped durante largos y convulsos minutos.

Los germanos intentaron con Mesut Ozil pero no tuvo la compañía de Khedira y Kroos que se mostraron dubitativos dejandose ganar por el mediocampo contrario. México continuó con su juego y comenzaron a destacarse y Hirving Lozano que tuvieron algunas chances que desperdiciaron, hasta que a los 34 minutos Hernández logró meterse en la defensa alemana y habilitar a Lozano, este logró eludir a un marcador y definir con un remate bajo que dejo sin chances de contener al arquero alemán. Alemania salió a buscar el empate y lo casi lo consiguió con un tiro libre que pego en las manos del arquero mexicano y rebotó en el travesaño. Y también México tuvo oportunidades para aumentar la diferencia.

International PO: tenue de la conférence de Moscou dans les plus brefs délais (Abbas) 10:22 MOSCOU, 7 avril - RIA Novosti. Le chef de l'Autorité palestinienne, Mahmoud Abbas, en visite en Russie, prône la convocation de la conférence sur le Proche-Orient à Moscou dans les délais les plus brefs. "Je pense que la conférence de Moscou doit être convoquée au plus vite (...). Les Palestiniens veulent même qu'elle se tienne demain ou après-demain", a expliqué M. Abbas dans un entretien au journal Vremia novosteï. Le quotidien d'affaires Kommersant écrit de son côté mardi que Moscou étudie la possibilité de faire coïncider cette conférence avec la première visite en Russie du président Barack Obama prévue pour l'été prochain. Donnant son avis sur cette éventualité, M. Abbas a estimé que "cette question doit être réglée par la Russie et les Etats-Unis". "Nous espérons que tous les efforts internationaux fusionnent en un seul flux dont l'objectif sera de rétablir la paix au Proche-Orient. Si on trouve une solution au problème palestinien et si le conflit au Proche-Orient est réglé dans son ensemble, tous les autres conflits dans le monde perdront de leur acuité", a estimé le chef de l'Administration nationale palestinienne. A la question de savoir si, après le conflit de juin 2007, le Hamas pouvait prendre part au nouveau gouvernement palestinien, M. Abbas a souligné que peu importait que ce gouvernement soit un gouvernement d'unité nationale ou de technocrates. "L'essentiel est qu'il s'en tienne au droit international et à la politique préconisée par l'Organisation de libération de la Palestine (à l'opposé du Hamas elle est favorable aux négociations de paix avec les Israéliens) (...). Si le mouvement (Hamas) est d'accord avec ces conditions, il pourra prendre part au gouvernement. Nous voudrions que là encore la Russie utilise ses possibilités et que Moscou réussisse à convaincre aussi bien Israël que le Hamas qu'il faut suivre les principes préconisés sur la scène internationale notamment par la Russie", a expliqué le chef de l'Autorité palestinienne. envoyez par e-mail retour à la page d'accueil

20:05 Los dirigentes del campo manifestaron esta noche su reclamo para que no haya dilaciones en la derogación de la resolución que instaló el esquema de retenciones móviles. Tras una reunión de la Mesa de Enlace, los titulares de las cuatro principales entidades emitieron un comunicado en el que invocan la promesa hecha por Néstor Kirchner en el acto del martes de que iba a respetarse la decisión del Congreso "sea cual fuere". En el texto, titulado "La República salió fortalecida", los ruralistas piden que se deje sin efecto "inmediatamente" la resolución 125, que el 11 de marzo fijó las retenciones móviles y desató el conflicto entre el kirchnerismo y el agro. Con rostros mucho más distendidos que en las últimas horas, los titulares Federación Agraria, Eduardo Buzzi, de CRA, Mario Llambías, y de Sociedad Rural, Luciano Miguens, así como el vice de Coninagro, Carlos Garetto –en reemplazo de Fernando Gioino, de licencia médica- se mostraron en Palermo e intercalaron llamados al diálogo y advertencias de que hay temas pendientes más allá de las retenciones a las exportaciones de granos. Tanto en las palabras previas de Luciano Miguens como en el mismo comunicado, leído por Garetto, el vicepresidente Julio Cobos se llevó un especial agradecimiento por su voto definitorio en la sesión de la Cámara alta. Además de la derogación de la 125, los ruralistas pidieron que ahora se busque una resolución "de consenso". Y advirtieron su intención de sentarse a una mesa federal para tratar reclamos pendientes acerca del trigo, la carne, los lácteos y las economías regionales. Desde primera hora del día, apenas terminada la votación, los referentes del campo se habían mostrado dispuestos al diálogo, a la búsqueda de "consensos". Ahora aguardan una posible convocatoria de la presidenta Cristina Kirchner para avanzar en un proyecto común para el campo. Temprano, Buzzi había calificado de "maravilloso" el resultado en el Senado, que a su criterio permitirá construir con "esperanza" un "país federal". "No hay crisis institucional, Cobos no votó contra el Gobierno, votó a favor de la gente. Y todo esto está ayudando a resolver uno de los problemas que más ha marcado estos últimos tiempos", afirmó el dirigente. En tanto, Llambías se mostró dispuesto a participar de una eventual reunión con la mandataria. "Ojalá que sea buscando soluciones, supongo que puede haber" un encuentro, expresó el dirigente rural ante la prensa.

La comisión de enlace —que reúne a las cuatro entidades rurales de la Argentina— lanzó hoy un comunicado de prensa. Su título es ''La república sale fortalecida''. En él, se agradeció al Senado de la Nación y al vicepresidente Julio Cobos por haber vetado la resolución 125. Además, pidieron que se deroguen las retenciones, ya que aún siguen vigentes. El comunicado "destaca el gesto democrático de un Parlamento que dedicó largas horas de debate a un tema que mantiene en vilo al país". También afirma que Cobos tuvo "gestos democráticos y republicanos". Según el documento, el vicepresidente supo "comprender el sentimiento de un pueblo que reclama la solución de un conflicto que afecta a la Nación entera". Asimismo, los dirigentes patronales propusieron reunirse en una "Mesa Federal" para debatir sobre una política agropecuaria nacional. Los titulares de las organizaciones del campo se mostraron muy distendidos al emitir el comunicado. El presidente de Confederaciones Rurales Argentinas (CRA), Eduardo Buzzi, manifestó: "No hay crisis institucional, Cobos no votó contra el Gobierno, votó a favor de la gente. Y todo esto está ayudando a resolver uno de los problemas que más ha marcado estos últimos tiempos".

Es la primera vez en la historia que un pontífice sale en esta revista MADRID, 29 Ene. (CHANCE) - Jorge Bergoglio lo ha vuelto a conseguir. Después de convertirse en el hombre del año para la revista Time, el próximo 13 de febrero su rostro saldrá publicado en la portada de la revista Rolling Stone, convirtiéndose en el primer sumo pontífice que logre ser portada de esta reconocida publicación. El carisma y la actitud de este nuevo Papa han conseguido que su mensaje llegue a todas las partes del mundo. La frase con la que abrirá la publicación es "The times they are a-changin", lo que viene a decir en castellano "Los tiempos están cambiando", haciendo también referencia a una canción del reconocido Bob Dylan. En el interior de la revista se podrá disfrutar de un amplio reportaje sobre este argentino que ahora ocupa el cargo de sumo pontífice. Mark Binelli, uno de los responsables de la publicación ha asegurado: "El Papa Francisco está llevando a cabo una ruptura notable con la tradición del Vaticano enfrentando temas políticos y teniendo una actitud más inclusiva hacia los derechos humanos". Los hechos están claros, desde que Jorge Bergoglio fuese elegido el sucesor de San Pedro el mundo católico se ha volcado con él y una nueva ola renovadora se está expandiendo. Hace pocas horas era la misma cuenta de Twitter del Vaticano la encargada de colgar un grafitti que alguien había realizado en una de las calles cercanas al Vaticano, en el que se puede ver al Papa Francisco como un "Superpapa".

El papa Francisco será el centro de la próxima portada de la revista de música Rolling Stone, según informaron diversos medios internacionales. Junto a esta publicación de primera plana, se suma el hecho que fue nombrado como el personaje del año por la revista TIME de 2013. Esta es la primera vez que un papa aparece en la portada de la revista. Se adelantó que la publicación contendrá un reportaje al papa, las medidas que ha tomado en los primeros meses de su papado y cómo se ha enfrentado al desafío de tomar la iglesia católica. Jorge Mario Bergoglio asumió el cargo de papa en marzo de 2013 tras la renuncia de Benedicto XVI, desde entonces la prensa le ha mostrado como un papa revolucionario y más humilde que sus predecesores.

Tres altos cargos con responsabilidades en seguridad próximos a la líder depuesta son apartados de sus cargos La junta militar de Tailandia ha disuelto el Senado y apartó de sus funciones a tres altos cargos con responsabilidades en seguridad considerados próximos a la corriente política del Gobierno depuesto y su líder, Thaksin Shinawatra. El Senado era hasta ahora el único órgano legislativo en activo después de que el Parlamento fuera disuelto a principios de año por la convocatoria de elecciones anticipadas, anuladas posteriormente por los tribunales. La medida refuerza el control y la autoridad del Consejo Nacional para la Paz y el Orden, nombre oficial de la junta, y de su líder, el general Prayuth Chan-ocha, que ayer viernes se autoproclamó como primer ministro. La junta también anunció la destitución del jefe de la Policía Real de Tailandia, Adul Saengsingkaew, quien ha sido recolocado en un puesto inactivo en la oficina del primer ministro, según el diario «Bangkok Post». También han sido transferidos a puestos inactivos el jefe del Departamento de Investigaciones Especiales, Tarit Pengdith, y el secretario permanente del Ministerio de Defensa, Nipat Thonglek. Los tres funcionarios eran considerados leales al Gobierno depuesto y a Thaksin, el ex primer ministro apartado del poder en el anterior golpe de 2006 y exiliado en Dubai, donde elude una condena por corrupción. En las últimas horas la junta militar también ha derogado la Constitución y creado un nuevo Gobierno formado por generales que pretende realizar reformas políticas y económicas sin que de momento haya puesto un plazo para devolver el poder a un Gobierno civil.

La junta militar tailandesa ha disuelto el Senado y ha asumido el poder legislativo. "Toda aquella ley que necesite ser aprobada por el Parlamento o el Senado lo será a partir de ahora por el jefe de la junta militar", ha anunciado el nuevo poder a través de un comunicado leído en la televisión. En los últimos días, también ha suspendido la Constitución, salvo las disposiciones referentes al Rey, decretado el toque de queda durante la noche y prohibido las reuniones públicas. Horas antes, la junta militar de Tailandia había llamado a 35 políticos e intelectuales prodemocracia a comparecer ante la nueva autoridad del país, que mantiene la persecución contra opositores y críticos iniciada tras el golpe de Estado de hace dos días. Entre las nuevas citaciones están las de los profesores de la Universidad de Thammasat, Somsak Jeamteerasakul, Worachet Pakeerut y Sawatri Suksri, los dos últimos, miembros del colectivo 'Nitirat' que aboga por una reforma de la draconiana ley de lesa majestad. Otros intelectuales reclamados son Suda Rangupan, ex profesor de la universidad Chulalongkorn, y Pavin Chachavalpongpun, profesor de la Universidad de Kyoto, según informó el diario "Bangkok Post". La junta hizo la convocatoria un día después de citar a otras 150 personalidades políticas y activistas, entre ellas la ex primera ministra Yingluck Shinawatra, y 22 miembros de su clan familiar y aliados políticos. Todos ellos fueron puestos bajo arresto tras presentarse ante los militares y trasladados ya de noche hacia distintas bases y casas fuera de la capital controladas por el Ejército. El Ejército también arrestó a 21 activistas de los llamados "camisas rojas", grupo que apoya la corriente política de los Shinawatra, tras varias redadas en localidades de su feudo en el noreste del país, según el diario "The Nation". El nuevo poder militar también ha amordazado a la prensa, con cierres de radios y televisiones, y ha empezado a clausurar portales de internet críticos con el golpe como el de Human Rights Watch, según denunció el representante de la organización en el país a través de Twitter. Protestas pese a la prohibición Por otra parte, un centenar de tailandeses se encaró hoy a los soldados durante una manifestación en Bangkok en contra del golpe de Estado, mientras grupos de ciudadanos convocan nuevas protestas pese a la prohibición decretada por la junta militar. Los manifestantes se concentraron delante de un centro comercial en el norte de la capital donde pidieron la celebración de elecciones y mostraron pancartas con lemas como "Llevad el golpe a los cuarteles, devolved el poder al pueblo". Varias decenas de soldados con equipamiento de antidisturbios intentó sin éxito dispersar a los manifestantes, que respondieron abucheando a los soldados quienes, a su vez, evitaron el uso de la fuerza. Los concentrados se dispersaron después de que los militares advirtieran con practicar detenciones por violar la ley marcial, que prohíbe las concentraciones públicas de más de cinco personas, según el diario "The Nation". No obstante, los manifestantes llamaron a regresar más tarde para retomar la protesta y a participar en otras concentraciones convocadas en otros puntos de la capital. Grupos de ciudadanos empezaron a manifestarse contra el golpe el jueves justo después de la asonada y ayer congregaron a varias decenas de personas en el distrito comercial de Bangkok, donde cinco manifestantes fueron detenidos tras encararse a los militares.

Associated Press Four united Nations anti-narcotics staff and two Bolivian military pilots died when their aeroplane crashed in the west of the country. The Bolivian air force said the Cessna, missing since Thursday, had been flying over the main coca-growing area in Los Yungas when it hit a tree. The four UN staff worked for the Office on Drugs and Crime, monitoring the production of coca – the key ingredient of cocaine. The aircraft was found on Saturday in a remote region of Inquisivi, about 75 miles from the capital, La Paz.

(CNN) -- A Bolivian Air Force plane missing since Thursday crashed in a remote, mountainous area, killing two pilots and four United Nations workers, a U.N. official said Saturday. A day earlier, a local mayor claimed to have found the plane and its passengers safe and sound, but the Air Force on Saturday found the wreckage, confirming that that was not the case. "The plane was completely destroyed and burned," Robert Brockmann, spokesman for the U.N. field office in Bolivia, told CNN. The plane was found northeast of La Paz, the capital, in an overgrown area with steep cliffs, Brockmann said. The closest village to the site of the wreckage is La Merced, though it was not easily accessible, he said. The cause of the crash has not been determined. The four U.N. workers belonged to the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime. They were identified as Ivan Alfaro, Patricia Delgado, Cinthia Moreno and Stephan Campos. At the time of its disappearance, the plane was carrying out an overflight of coca-producing areas in the Los Yungas region of the country, north of La Paz. It was the last week of what had been months of such overflights. The plane had left El Alto International Airport in La Paz at 10:30 a.m. Thursday and was expected back at 2:30 p.m. The Air Force initiated a search after the plane never returned.

UN anti-drugs staff die as plane hits tree in Bolivia The plane went down in the Yungas region, north-east of the capital, La Paz Continue reading the main story Related Stories Four UN anti-narcotics staff and two Bolivian military pilots died when their plane crashed in western Bolivia, officials in the country have said.

The Bahá'í International Community has claimed that a Bahá'í has died in mysterious circumstances in jail in Yazd, Iran. Dhabihu'llah Mahrami was arrested in 1995 and convicted by an Iranian court of "apostasy" - converting from Islam to another religion. He was sentenced to death, but following protests from the international community the sentence was commuted to life imprisonment in 1999. Mahrami was a lifelong Bahá'í, who was fired from his civil service job after the Iranian revolution in 1979 on grounds of his religion. An article later appeared in a local newspaper stating he had converted to Islam, but Mahrami claimed this had been written by colleague and he had always remained a Bahá'í. After he had repeated this publicly, he was arrested and charged with apostasy. Iranian authorities later claimed he was jailed for spying for Israel, but this was contradicted by the court documents. The Bahá'í community claims that Mahrami had no known health concerns at the time of his death, but had been forced to do arduous labour in prison and had received death threats. They say they hold the Iranian authorities responsible for his death and his only crime was belief in his religion. They claim the Bahá'í community in Iran has suffered an increase in persecution this year, with 59 Bahá'ís arrested so far.

Wrongly imprisoned Baha'i dies in Iranian jail -- A Baha'i who was wrongly jailed in Iran for 10 years died in his prison cell of unknown causes on Thursday, 15 December 2005, the Baha'i International Community has learned. Mr. Dhabihu'llah Mahrami, 59, was held in a government prison in Yazd under harsh physical conditions at the time of his death. His death comes amidst ominous signs that a new wave of persecutions of Baha'is has begun. This year so far, at least 59 Baha'is have been arrested, detained or imprisoned, a figure up sharply from the last several years. Arrested in 1995 in Yazd on charges of apostasy, Mr. Mahrami was initially sentenced to death. His sentence was later commuted to life imprisonment after an international outcry and widespread media attention. "The worldwide Baha'i community mourns deeply the passing of Mr. Mahrami, who was unjustly held for a decade on trumped-up charges that manifestly violated his right to freedom of religion and belief," said Bani Dugal, the principal representative of the Baha'i International Community to the United Nations. "While the cause of his death is not known, Mr. Mahrami had no known health concerns," said Ms. Dugal. "We also know that Mr. Mahrami was forced to perform arduous physical labor and that he had received death threats on a number of occasions. "In this light, there should be no doubt that the Iranian authorities bear manifest responsibility for the death of this innocent man, whose only crime was his belief in the Baha'i Faith," said Ms. Dugal. "In our mourning, we nevertheless hope that Mr. Mahrami's unexplained passing will not go unnoticed by the world at large and, indeed, that his case might become a cause for further action towards the emancipation of the Baha'i community of Iran as a whole," said Ms. Dugal. Born in 1946, Mr. Mahrami served in the civil service but at the time of his arrest was making a living installing venetian blinds, having been summarily fired from his job like thousands of other Baha'is in the years following the 1979 Iranian revolution. Although Iranian officials have asserted that Mr. Mahrami was guilty of spying for Israel, court records clearly indicate that he was tried and sentenced solely on charge of being an "apostate," a crime which is punishable by death under traditional Islamic law. Although Mr. Mahrami was a lifelong Baha'i, the apostasy charge apparently came about because a civil service colleague, in an effort to prevent Mr. Mahrami from losing his job, submitted to a newspaper an article stating that he had converted to Islam. When it later became clear to Iranian authorities that Mr. Mahrami remained a member of the Baha'i community, they arrested him and charged him with apostasy for allegedly converting from Islam to the Baha'i Faith. On 2 January 1996, he was sentenced to death by the Revolutionary Court, a conviction that was later upheld by the Iranian Supreme Court. The death sentence against Mr. Mahrami stirred an international outcry. The European Parliament, for example, passed a resolution on human rights abuses in Iran, making reference to Mr. Mahrami's case. The governments of Australia, Brazil, Canada, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, and the United States also registered objections. There was also significant media coverage of the case, in Le Monde and Liberation in France, as well as reports by the BBC, Reuters and Agence France Presse. Although the authorities did not publicly bow to international pressure calling for Mr. Mahrami's release, in December 1999 they took the occasion of the anniversary of the birth of the Prophet Muhammad to declare an amnesty and commuted his sentence to life imprisonment. Since 1978, more than 200 Iranian Baha'i have been killed, hundreds more have been imprisoned, and thousands have been deprived of jobs, pensions and education as part of a widespread and systemic religious persecution by the government of the Islamic Republic of Iran. As of October, Mr. Mahrami was one of nine Baha'is being held in Iranian prisons. However, all of the others had been arrested in 2005. Mr. Mahrami is survived by his aged mother, his wife, his four children, and his grandchildren. Mr. Mahrami's funeral was held on Friday, 16 December 2005, the same day that the United Nations General Assembly passed a resolution expressing "serious concern" over the human rights situation in Iran, making specific mention of the ongoing persecution of the Baha'i community there.

The Bahá'í International Community has claimed that a Bahá'í has died in mysterious circumstances in jail in Yazd, Iran. Dhabihu'llah Mahrami was arrested in 1995 and convicted by an Iranian court of "apostasy" - converting from Islam to another religion. He was sentenced to death, but following protests from the international community the sentence was commuted to life imprisonment in 1999. Mahrami was a lifelong Bahá'í, who was fired from his civil service job after the Iranian revolution in 1979 on grounds of his religion. An article later appeared in a local newspaper stating he had converted to Islam, but Mahrami claimed this had been written by colleague and he had always remained a Bahá'í. After he had repeated this publicly, he was arrested and charged with apostasy. Iranian authorities later claimed he was jailed for spying for Israel, but this was contradicted by the court documents. The Bahá'í community claims that Mahrami had no known health concerns at the time of his death, but had been forced to do arduous labour in prison and had received death threats. They say they hold the Iranian authorities responsible for his death and his only crime was belief in his religion. They claim the Bahá'í community in Iran has suffered an increase in persecution this year, with 59 Bahá'ís arrested so far.

Sąd Najwyższy ogłosił dzisiaj swoją decyzję w sprawie aresztu dla podporucznika Łukasza B., chorąży Andrzej O. ,plutonowy Tomasz B. i kapitana Olgierda C. Podejrzani są oni w sprawie ostrzału afgańskiej wioski Nangar Khel. Adwokaci żołnierzy wnioskowali o wypuszczenie ich aresztu. Podejrzani znaleźli się w areszcie zgodnie z decyzją prokuratury, która stwierdziła, że istnieje możliwość utrudniania śledztwa. Zgodnie z decyzją sądu żołnierze zostaną niezwłocznie wypuszczeni, jednak będą musieli zgłaszać się raz w tygodniu w jednostce. Zastosowano również dozór przełożonych oraz zawieszenie w służbie. W sprawie Olgierda C. sąd uznał, że "Są realne przesłanki uzasadniające sens stawianych zarzutów, ale nie ma obawy matactwa w toczącym się śledztwie i nie ma realnej obawy, że Olgierd C. ucieknie, dlatego środki zapobiegawcze są wystarczające". Już miesiąc temu Wojskowy Sąd Okręgowy w Warszawie uchylił areszt dla starszego szeregowego Jacek J., Robert B. i Damian L. Sąd uznał wtedy, że wykonywali rozkazy przełożonych, a kara, którą są zagrożeni nie jest tak wysoka, by podjąć ryzyko ucieczki. Do ostrzału afgańskiej wioski doszło w sierpniu ubiegłego roku. Na miejscu zginęło 6 cywilów. Podejrzanych w tej sprawie jest 7 żołnierzy z 18. z Bielskiego Batalionu Desantowo-Szturmowego. 16 sierpnia 2007 roku polscy żołnierze ostrzelali wioskę Nangal Khel z wielokalibrowego karabinu maszynowego, a następnie granatami moździerzowymi kalibru 60mm. Zginęło sześciu cywilów, wśród rannych były kobiety i dzieci, w tym trzy okaleczone trwale.

22:50, 10.06.2008 /TVN24, tvn24.pl SĄD NAJWYŻSZY UCHYLIŁ ARESZT WOBEC ZATRZYMANYCH Sąd Najwyższy uchylił we wtorek areszt wobec kolejnych czterech podejrzanych w sprawie ostrzelania wioski Nangar Khel. Areszt Śledczy w Poznaniu opuszczą podporucznik Łukasz B., chorąży Andrzej O. i plutonowy Tomasz B., a areszt w Środzie Wielkopolskiej - kpt. Olgierd C.. Piotr Dewiński, adwokat Andrzeja O. Matka Andrzeja O.: Wierzę w sprawiedliwość Zemke: Dobra decyzja sądu Koziej: Dobrze, że żołnierze będą odpowiadać z wolnej stopy Sąd zdecydował, że żołnierze mają zostać niezwłocznie wypuszczeni (po dostarczeniu do aresztu w Poznaniu decyzji sądu), oddani pod dozór przełożonego i zawieszeni w czynnościach służbowych. Dodatkowym środkiem zapobiegawczym wobec jednego z żołnierzy - Andrzeja O. - jest zakaz opuszczania kraju. Jego paszport zostanie zdeponowany, gdyż zdaniem sądu zachodzi obawa ucieczki.Pełne uzasadnienie decyzji sądu ma być gotowe w ciągu 7 dni. Jednak jednym z głównych argumentów sądu było to, że powodem utrzymania aresztu nie może być jedynie to, iż prokuratura nie skończyła jeszcze śledztwa. Zwłaszcza, że właściwe postępowanie karne wobec siedmiu żołnierzy nie wymaga pozbawienia ich wolności. Sąd uznał ponadto, że dalsze stosowanie aresztu wobec czterech żołnierzy jest nieuzasadnione, skoro uchylono areszt trzem innym.Przed miesiącem sąd okręgowy uchylił areszt trzem z siedmiu żołnierzy, a utrzymał go wobec czterech pozostałych. Areszt opuścili wtedy starsi szeregowi - Jacek J., Robert B. i Damian L. Pozostali w nim wówczas chorąży Andrzej O., plutonowy Tomasz B., kapitan Olgierd C. i podporucznik Łukasz B.Od decyzji o wypuszczeniu niższych rangą żołnierzy odwoływała się prokuratura. We wtorek wniosek ten został jednak oddalony przez Sąd Najwyższy.Natomiast obrońcy pozostających w areszcie żołnierzy złożyli wówczas zażalenia na utrzymanie aresztu wobec swoich klientów. Te wnioski Sąd Najwyższy teraz przyjął.Janina Makowska, matka chorążego Andrzeja O., który zgodnie z decyzją sądu opuszcza areszt, powiedziała TVN24, że jej syn wierzył, że wyjdzie na wolność i że była to tylko kwestia czasu. - A ja wierzę teraz w sprawiedliwość - podkreśliła matka Andrzeja O. Jak dodała, to jej syn dostał dodatkowo zakaz opuszczania kraju. Powodem mogło być to, że w liście do swojej żony, którego treść zna sąd, pisał, że po wyjściu z aresztu udadzą się w podróż. - Lubili podróżować, często wyjeżdżali - podkreśliła Makowska.Również Piotr Dewiński, adwokat Andrzeja O. przyznał na antenie TVN24, że decyzja o zakazie opuszczania kraju dla jego klienta ma związek z listem do żony. - Najważniejsze jest jednak to, że będzie odpowiadał z wolnej stopy - podkreślił mecenas.Zwłaszcza, że - jego zdaniem - decyzja prokuratury o zakończeniu śledztwa jest przedwczesna. - Prokuratura nie wyjaśniła wszystkiego. Niewykluczone, że trzeba będzie powtarzać wizję lokalną i uzyskać nowe opinie balistyczne - ocenił mec. Dewiński.- Jestem usatysfakcjonowany decyzją sądu – powiedział w TVN24 gen. Stanisław Koziej. - Sąd doszedł do wniosku, że prokuratura ma już wystarczające dowody, i może się rozpocząć proces, na który wszyscy z niecierpliwością czekamy.Jego zdaniem żołnierze nie musieli być przetrzymywani w areszcie. - Od początku byłem zdania, że był to bardziej nieszczęśliwy zbieg okoliczności niż zbrodnia - podkreślił Koziej.Zdaniem Janusza Zemke, szefa sejmowej komisji obrony, sprawa ostrzelania wioski Nangar Khel jest skomplikowana i niejednoznaczna. - Sąd podjął decyzję zgodnie z zasadą, że jeżeli są wątpliwości i nie można ich rozstrzygnąć, to rozstrzyga się je na korzyść podejrzanych. Pokazuje ona, że wojskowe sądy zachowują się w sposób niezależny i obiektywny - ocenił Zemke.mac/sk

18:22, 12.12.2008 /TVN24 STRAŻACY NADAL PROWADZĄ AKCJĘ W MIEJSCU TRAGEDII Dwie osoby zginęły w wybuchu gazu w Rudzie Śląskiej. Do tragedii doszło w zakładzie legalizacji butli gazowych. Na miejscu ciągle pracują oddziały straży pożarnej. Akcja może potrwać do rana. Krzysztof Piechaczek, Komenda Miejska Policji w Rudzie Śląskiej Ofiarami są osoby, które w chwili wybuchu znajdowały się w środku zakładu - najprawdopodobniej pracownicy.- Nie możemy jeszcze mówić o całkowitym opanowaniu zagrożenia. Pod konstrukcja budynku nadal znajdują się butle, które ciągle są ciepłe - wyjaśnił na antenie TVN24 kapitan Jan Rejnert ze straży pożarnej w Rudzie Śląskiej. - Nasze działanie polegają na schładzaniu tych butli i, w miarę możliwości, wynoszeniu tych, które są już schłodzone - wyjaśnił kapitan.Straż wyznaczyła dwustumetrową strefę bezpieczeństwa, w centrum której znajduje się zakład, gdzie doszło do wybuchu. Odgrodzonego terenu pilnują policjanci z Katowic i Rudy Śląskiej.Wyznaczenie strefy było konieczne. - Istnieje zagrożenie wybuchami wtórnymi - ostrzegł strażak. Jak wyjaśnił, siła pierwszego wybuchu sięgała 100-150 metrów.- W zakładach produkcyjnych, które znajdują się obok, były poprzewracane ściany. Samochody tez był poprzewracane - opowiadał strażak.Policjanci czekają, kiedy swoje prace zakończą strażacy. Na miejscu jest już prokurator, który nadzoruje działania prowadzone na miejscu tragedii.Strażacy nie wiedzą, co mogło być przyczyną tragedii. - Na razie chciałby się wstrzymać od podawania przyczyn. nie jesteśmy pewien co było przyczyną wybuchu - wyjaśnił kapitan.rh//kwj

W wybuchu do którego doszło w Rudzie Śląskiej o godzinie 14.35 przy ulicy Orzegowskiej w zakładzie legalizacji butli gazowych, zginęły dwie osoby wynika ze wstępnych informacji pracownicy zakładu. Kilka minut po wybuchu na miejsce eksplozji dotarły oddziały straży pożarnej z Rudy Ślaskiej i Chorzowa. Następnie strażacy prowadzili akcję schładzania terenu i butli. W okolicznych mieszkaniach wypadły szyby, a ludzie którzy szli ulicą przewracali się w wyniku bardzo mocnego wybuchu. Eksplozję było słychać i czuć w promieniu kilkunastu kilometrów. Na razie nie wiadomo ile osób odniosło rany, ani jakie były przyczyny eksplozji. Wybuch zniszczył budynki w bezpośrednim sąsiedztwie. Naturalna niecka w której znajdowały się ww. zakłady zniwelowały skutki wybuchu i potężnej fali uderzeniowej, która uderzyła w ul. Matejki niszcząc po drodze m.in. bloki "charmonijke" i kaplicę Piusa X skąd powypadały okna.

PA Thank you for joining us this evening for the Bafta Television Awards 2016. If you've missed any of the ceremony tonight, have a look at the full list of winners. You can also scroll down to see how the night unfolded, from the red carpet arrivals and the jaw-dropping dresses to the politically charged speeches and the big winners of the night. We've had plenty of tweets over the last few hours from viewers wondering why their favourite shows weren't even nominated. In most cases, it's because recent shows such as The Night Manager were too late for the eligibility period. But don't worry, we're pretty confident they'll be well represented next year. See you in 2017!

The government came under unprecedented attack at the Bafta TV awards on Sunday, where the BBC swept the board with double wins for BBC2’s Mark Rylance drama Wolf Hall and Peter Kay sitcom Car Share. In an unusually political evening, the tone was set by Wolf Hall director Peter Kosminsky, who received the first award of the night and was given a standing ovation by the audience of TV stars and industry executives when he accused the government of trying to “eviscerate” the BBC and Channel 4. Wolf Hall star Mark Rylance later joined in the criticism, saying: “Woah to any government that tries to get between the British people and their love of a good joke, a true story, a good song, a fact or fiction, good sports commentating, newscasters who can hold themselves together as they tell stories about terrible tragedies in Paris, people who can help you bake cakes. “We’re a nation of storytellers, were admired around the world for it. I agree with Peter, times are hard.” Winning the prize for his role as Thomas Cromwell in Wolf Hall capped an extraordinary year for Rylance, who also won an Oscar and a Bafta film award for Steven Spielberg’s Bridge of Spies. Kosminsky said: “In the week in which our secretary of state John Whittingdale described the disappearance of the BBC as a tempting prospect, I’d like to say a few words in defence of that organisation.” He said government proposals to appoint a majority of members on a new BBC board threatened its independence and would turn it into a state broadcaster “a bit like ... those bastions of democracy Russia and North Korea”. He said the government wanted to tell the BBC what programmes to make and when to schedule them. “It’s not their BBC, it’s your BBC,” he said. “This is really scary stuff, folks, and not something I thought I would see in my lifetime in this country. All of this is under threat right now, make no mistake. “We should stand up and fight for it, not let it go by default. If we don’t, blink and it will be gone. No more Wolf Halls, no more Dispatches [on Channel 4], just a broadcasting landscape where the only determinate of whether it gets made is whether it lines the pockets of shareholders. “It’s time to stand up and say no to this dangerous nonsense.” One audience member described the mood in the London’s Royal Festival Hall after Kosminsky’s speech – the first of the night – as astonishing. Kosminsky’s speech was edited for broadcast when the awards were shown on BBC1 an hour later – his reference to Russia and North Korea was cut – but large parts of it remained intact. A BBC spokeswoman said: “As with any televised award show, we seek to fairly and accurately reflect the passionately held views of recipients and attendees. “At the same time, we have a duty to fairly reflect as many awards, nominees and winners as possible. Where we have to edit for length, we ensure that the essence of the speeches which are included, are properly reflected.” Ian Hislop, Strictly Come Dancing judge Craig Revel Horwood and The Missing star James Nesbitt were among the other stars to speak out on behalf of the BBC. Hislop, accepting the comedy and comedy entertainment award for BBC1’s Have I Got News For You, said: “The BBC have allowed Have I Got News For You to be rude about governments ... and rude about the BBC, which is a privilege you are given with public service broadcasting and not on state television.” In a reference to Kosminsky’s earlier speech, he said: “I thought I wouldn’t do any political stuff, it’s already been done although probably at home it was cut for you, you may have missed it.” Later, Hislop added: “I have an idea that John Whittingdale’s ideal show would be the prime minister as host [of Have I Got News For You], the defence secretary and the home secretary as the two team captains. “It is a ludicrous idea what he [Whittingdale] is proposing. But I think that like most of the really terrible ideas that this government has come up with, in about three weeks they will decide that they didn’t mean it and they will row back. Revel Horwood spoke out after Strictly Come Dancing, which has been criticised by Whittingdale and may be forced out of its primetime slot, beat ITV’s Britain’s Got Talent to the best entertainment prize. “If they are in charge of anything entertainment-wise, it would be a complete disaster; we don’t want them in charge of any decisions, creatively,” he said. “The scheduling is created around our audience. It’s a family entertainment show. You’d never schedule it at 1am would you? That would be ridiculous. I would hate to see it move.” James Nesbitt, one of the awards presenters, told the audience: “I think it’s true that all these films, the writers, directors, cast and crew and, let’s face it, everyone in this hall is able to do what they do as well as they do because of the BBC. Do not strip it away.” The government also came under attack from double Bafta winner Jack Thorne, writer of Channel 4’s Shane Meadows drama This is England ’90, which won best mini-series, and BBC3’s Don’t Take My Baby, about a disabled couple and their child, which was awarded best single drama. Thorne said cuts to the government’s access to eork scheme were “making it very difficult for theatre, film and TV companies to employ disabled talent and that’s wrong and that’s got to change”. Peter Kay’s comedy Car Share, which premiered on the BBC’s on-demand service iPlayer before being repeated on BBC1, was a double winner. Other BBC winners included Suranne Jones, star of BBC1 drama Doctor Foster, and Poldark, the drama remake starring Aidan Turner, which won the Radio Times audience award voted for by viewers. Channel 4 was a big winner, with its prizes including The Murder Detectives (best factual series), My Son the Jihadi (single documentary), First Dates (reality award) and Channel 4 News, which won for its coverage of the Paris terrorist attacks. Channel 4’s This is England ’90 was a double winner, with Chanel Cresswell winning the supporting actress category. Michaela Coel, star of Channel 4 comedy Chewing Gum, used her speech to “pay my respects” to comedian Victoria Wood, who died in April aged 62. US on-demand service Amazon Prime won a Bafta with its first nomination, Jill Solloway’s transgender comedy, Transparent, which won the international award. Its star Jeffrey Tambor said: “This is the series that answers the question, it’s okay to change, you will still be loved, go for your authentic self, be who you are and to hell with the consequences. Believe, love, be free.” Held on the 90th birthday of Sir David Attenborough, there was no birthday present for the broadcaster because his BBC1 programme The Hunt was beaten by BBC2’s Britain’s Forgotten Slave Owners in the specialist factual category. Elsewhere, Lenny Henry, the actor and comedian turned diversity campaigner, won the Bafta special award and Ray Galton and Alan Simpson, the Hancock’s Half Hour writers and creators of Steptoe and Son, received the Bafta fellowship. Bafta chair Anne Morrison also refered to the uncertainty surrounding the BBC and Channel 4, saying the “broadcasting ecology we have evolved [in the UK] has served us well. “Whatever changes are ahead, we have to find a way of ensuring the range and quality of what we see here tonight is preserved.” After the racial discrimination row that overshadowed this year’s Oscars, she said it was “the most diverse list of nominations that anyone can remember and that is a cause for celebration as well”. The BBC won a total of 14 awards, half of them for shows on BBC1. Channel 4 won six with another for E4, and two for ITV. Sky and Amazon took home one award each. Strictly Come Dancing judge Craig Revel Horwood spoke out after the BBC1 show, which has been criticised by Whittingdale and may be forced out of its primetime slot, beat ITV’s Britain’s Got Talent to the best entertainment prize.

Peter Kosminsky, Colin Callender, Mark Pybus and Peter Straughan, accepting the Best Drama award for Wolf Hall, pose in the winners room The government has come under fire at the TV Bafta Awards over claims it is setting out to destroy the BBC. Accepting the honour for Best Drama, Wolf Hall director Peter Kosminksy said that proposals made by Culture Secretary John Whittingdale were “dangerous nonsense”. The respected TV veteran kicked off his speech on the stage by declaring: “In the week in which our secretary of state John Whittingdale described the disappearance of the BBC as ‘a tempting prospect’, I’d like to say a few words in defence of that organisation. “I think most people would agree that the BBC’s main job is to speak truth to power, to report to the British public without fear or favour however unpalatable that might be to those in government. "As a public broadcaster independent of government, not a state broadcaster where the editorial decisions are appointed by the government.

He said: “It’s not their BBC – it’s your BBC.” Describing it as “the envy of the world” he declared: “We should stand up and fight for it. Not let it go by default. Steve Back John Whittingdale has come under fire "If we don’t - blink and it will be gone. It’s time to stand up and say no to this dangerous nonsense.” Adding that Channel 4 was also under threat from the Tories – who want to sell it off – he warned that: “There will be no more Wolf Halls, no more award winning Dispatches on Channel 4 just a broadcasting landscape where the only determinate over whether something gets made is whether it’s likely to line the pockets of its shareholders.” Speaking of Whittingdale’s plan to put six government nominees onto the editorial board of the BBC, he said: “Think about that for a moment. The editorial board. VIEW GALLERY "The body charged with safeguarding the editorial independence of the BBC from, amongst other things, government interference - will be appointed by the government.” Stressing that Whittingdale may want to also tell the BBC when to play its news or where to put certain programmes, he added: “Do you want this? This is really scary stuff folks. "Not something I’d thought I’d see in my lifetime in this country.” Earlier in the evening Bafta chairwoman Anne Morrison also made pointed comments about the government’s planned interference. She warned: “The future of the industry is at stake – wherever changes lie ahead we have to find a way of ensuring the range and quality we see here tonight is preserved.”

Star Mark Rylance, also a BAFTA Film Award and Oscar winner this year for his supporting turn in Steven Spielberg’s Bridge Of Spies, was victorious in the Leading Actor race. Shane Meadows’ latest installment in the This Is England series for Channel 4, This Is England ’90, took kudos for Miniseries and Chanel Cresswell as Supporting Actress. Rounding out the double winners, BBC iPlayer’s Peter Kay’s Car Share was tops in Scripted Comedy and Kay took the Male Performance in a Comedy Program category. Suranne Jones won the BAFTA for Leading Actress for her portrayal of a wife betrayed by her husband’s infidelity in BBC One breakout Doctor Foster. Tom Courtenay scooped the Supporting Actor prize for ITV’s Unforgotten. This was his 3rd BAFTA, coming 53 years since his first for Most Promising Newcomer. The Special Award was presented to comedian and writer Lenny Henry, in recognition of his creative contribution to television during a career that has so far spanned 40 years.

The TV Baftas aren’t quite as A-list as their cinematic equivalent, but they tend to be all the more fun for it, with a reliably witty host (Graham Norton) and far more variety on the guest list – dead serious actors like Idris Elba and Tom Hiddleston will be rubbing shoulders on the red carpet with comedy types like Peter Kay and Miranda Hart, light entertainment stars like Ant and Dec and civilians turned national treasures like lovely Nadiya from Bake Off. Wolf Hall is one of the biggest nominees tonight – it would seem rude to let Mark Rylance go home empty-handed – but it’s been a solid year for dramas in general; Doctor Foster, Humans and Luther are all up for gongs too, and there are no mega-obvious winners. It won’t all be light-hearted lols though; as ever, the TV stars we’ve sadly lost this year will also get a mention. And this year will be more emotional than ever - Victoria Wood, Terry Wogan and Ronnie Corbett are just a few big names on the shockingly long list of much-loved stars who’ve died recently. We’ll be following the action here throughout the night, live-blogging the TV broadcast while we pretend we haven’t already read the results on Twitter. Yes, this is the problem with an awards do in the social media age; the so-called live broadcast is always slightly delayed while they edit out the sweary bits.

Who was Mark Rylance's character Thomas Cromwell? Thomas Cromwell was an intelligent, powerful and ruthless English lawyer and statesman who was born in Tudor England around 1485, in Putney, London and died on the 28th July, 1540. Why was he important? Despite his low birth, Thomas Cromwell rose to become one of the pre-eminent political figures of his day. Over a remarkable career, he served England's monarch Henry VIII in a number of influential roles, including the Lord Privy Seal, Lord Chamberlain, Master of the Rolls, Secretary of State, Chancellor of the Exchequer and Earl of Essex. How did he become so powerful? Cromwell was a brilliant lawyer and masterful political operator. After establishing himself in London's legal and mercantile world, he went on to gain a seat in the House of Commons as MP for Taunton and to serve in the household of Cardinal Thomas Wolsey, who was himself a formidable politician, statesman and diplomat. In his subsequent political career, Cromwell played a key role in arranging the annulment of the king's marriage to his then queen, Catherine of Aragon, which paved the way for Henry to marry his mistress, Anne Boleyn. As one of Henry's most skilfull and effective advisors, Cromwell helped to engineer both the rise and fall of Anne Boleyn, who was executed for treason in 1536 after she failed to give Henry a male heir. However, Cromwell himself fell from grace after the marriage he arranged between Henry and a German princess, Anne of Cleves, ended in a disastrous annulment after just six months. What was his background? Cromwell was born to Walter Cromwell, a blacksmith and brewery-owner, and his wife, Katherine. While little is known about his early life, it is believed that he grew up near Putney Hill, on the edge of Putney Heath: a dangerous area known to be frequented by highwaymen at night. Years later, Cromwell declared to Archbishop of Canterbury Thomas Cranmer that he had been a "ruffian ... in his young days". As a young man, he left his family and travelled to Europe, where he may have spent time fighting as a mercenary in the French army, marching with them to Italy. After visiting the Low Countries, learning several languages and developing a network of contacts among the country's English merchants, Cromwell returned to Italy, where he is to believed to have acted as an agent for the then- Archbishop of York, Cardinal Christopher Bainbridge. At some point during this period, Cromwell returned to England, marrying Elizabeth Wyckes in 1515. Did he have a family? Yes, Cromwell and his wife Elizabeth Wyckes had three children: Gregory, Anne and Grace. Elizabeth, Anne and Grace all died in 1528, victims of an epidemic of sweating sickness, a scene that is described with heart-breaking tenderness in Mantel's novel. Cromwell also fathered an illegitimate daughter, Jane. What were his religious beliefs? Most historians maintain that Cromwell was a committed Protestant, who encouraged Henry to split from the authority of the Catholic church, embodied by the Pope, and to assert in its place an independent Church of England. Legally and politically, he was among the driving forces and influential agents behind the English Reformation. However, it is thought that he attempted to keep his personal beliefs separate from his political roles, at least in public. How did he die? Cromwell was executed, without trial, for treason on the 28th July, 1540 – the same day that King Henry married his fifth wife, Catherine Howard. He was beheaded on Tower Hill and his severed head was exhibited on a spike on London Bridge.

U.K. television's most prestigious event took place Sunday night in the British capital, with some of the biggest names from both small and silver screen in attendance for the annual BAFTA TV Awards. The BBC's historical series Wolf Hall – which aired on PBS in the U.S. – entered the night ahead of the pack, with four nominations, including one for its recently-minted Oscar winner Mark Rylance. The actor, whose turn as calculating statesmen Thomas Cromwell in the adaptation of Hilary Mantel's books was a hugely critically acclaimed, went up against Luther's Idris Elba in the leading actor category, as they had done in the BAFTA film awards supporting category just three months earlier (Rylance won that round). Wolf Hall ended up winning the best drama award, and Rylance beating Elba again to walk away with the best actor honor. The series director Peter Kosminsky used his opportunity on stage to take aim at the government attacks on the BBC, saying that it was attempting to "eviscerate" something that was the envy of the world. "We should stand up and fight for it, not let it go by default. And if we don't, blink and it will be gone," he said, adding that there would be "no more Wolf Hall." Amazon beat out Netflix as Transparent earned the award for best international series, with Jeffrey Tambor accepting the honor. Netflix's Narcos had been among the other nominees. In supporting categories, this time it was the turn of the elder statesmen, with Tom Courtenay (Unforgotten) shortlisted alongside Ian McKellen, incredibly earning his first ever BAFTA TV short nomination, for The Dresser. Courtenay won the BAFTA to much applause. Other guests on the night included Hugh Bonneville, Maisie Williams, Justin Timberlake, Martin Freeman, Mark Gatiss, Sharon Horgan and Tom Hiddleston.

SEOUL, South Korea -- North Korea agreed Tuesday to send a delegation to next month's Winter Olympics in South Korea, Seoul officials said, as the bitter rivals sat for rare talks at the border to discuss how to cooperate in Olympics and improve their long-strained ties. The Koreas' first talks in two years were arranged after North Korea's leader Kim Jong Un recently made an abrupt push for improved ties with South Korea after a year of elevated tensions with the outside world over his expanding nuclear and missile programs. Critics say Kim may be trying to divide Seoul and the United States in a bid to weaken international pressure and sanctions on North Korea. During the talks, the North Korean delegation said it would send an Olympic delegation, which includes officials, athletes, cheerleaders, journalists and others, South Korea's Vice Unification Minister Chun Hae-sung told reporters, according to media footage from the border village of Panmunjom, the venue for the talks. The South Korean delegation, for its part, proposed North Korea send a big delegation and conduct a joint march during the Feb. 9-25 Games' opening and closing ceremonies, Chun, one of the five South Korean negotiators, said. He said South Korea also suggested resuming temporary reunions of families separated by war and offering military talks designed to reduce animosities in frontline areas. South Korea also stressed the need to achieve denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula, Chun said. North Korea responded by saying the two Koreas must try to promote peace and reconciliation through dialogue, he said. The two sides were to continue their negotiations later Tuesday at Panmunjom, the only place on the tense border where North and South Korean soldiers are just feet away from each other. A North Korean soldier late last year defected to the South across Panmunjom amid a hail of bullets fired by his comrades. He was hit five times but survived. The meeting began with an amicable atmosphere Tuesday morning, with chief North Korean delegate Ri Son Gwon saying he hopes the talks would give "a New Year's first gift -- precious results [of the talks] to the Korean nation." Ri's South Korean counterpart, Unification Minister Cho Myoung-gyon, said he also hopes they would come up with a "good gift" for people in both Koreas. The overall prospect for the negotiations was still unclear. The two Koreas have a long history of ending key talks without any agreement and failing to follow through with rapprochement accords. An agreement on North Korea's Olympic participation had been widely expected before the talks began, but the Koreas remain sharply at odds over how to improve their overall ties. North Korea is expected to demand rewards in return for South Korea's offer for family reunions and military talks, like Seoul halting propaganda broadcasts and scaling back or halting military drills with the U.S., observers say. Suspension of the military drills would be unacceptable for Seoul because that would seriously undermine the alliance with its chief ally the United States, which wants to put more pressures on Pyongyang. North Korea views the drills as a rehearsal for a northward invasion. President Donald Trump on Saturday expressed hope for some progress from the talks and said he was open to talking with Kim himself. But U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley later said the U.S. administration isn't changing its conditions regarding talks with North Korea, saying Kim would first need to stop weapons testing for a "significant amount of time." In his New Year's Day address, Kim said there is an urgent need to improve inter-Korean ties and that he is willing to send a delegation to the Pyeongchang Games. He urged Seoul to halt the military drills with the U.S. and said he has a "nuclear button" to launch missiles at any target in the United States. South Korean liberal president Moon Jae-in, who favors dialogue as a way to defuse the North Korean nuclear standoff, welcomed Kim's outreach and proposed talks at Panmunjom. Kim quickly accepted. "As President Moon has said, the improvement of relations between North and South Korea cannot advance separately from resolving North Korea's nuclear program," Brian Hook, a chief adviser to U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, told reporters in a conference call late Monday Washington time. "And so, we remain focused on our global pressure campaign. That campaign is designed to bring Kim Jong Un to the table for meaningful negotiations." The Trump administration agreed last week to delay springtime military drills with South Korea until after the Games. Defense Secretary Jim Mattis insisted the delay was a practical necessity to accommodate the Olympics, not a political gesture. Trump and Kim traded bellicose warlike rhetoric and even crude insults last year, as North Korea conducted its sixth and most powerful nuclear detonation and three tests of intercontinental ballistic missiles. The International Olympic Committee said Monday it has "kept the door open" for North Korea to take part in the Games. IOC spokesman Mark Adams said the registration deadline has been extended and that the Switzerland-based committee supports North Korean athletes in the qualification process, while respecting U.N. sanctions against North Korea.

SEOUL, South Korea — North Korea will send a delegation of officials and athletes to next month's Winter Olympic Games in South Korea, it was announced Tuesday after the first high-level talks between the countries in more than two years. The two nations also agreed to hold military talks aimed at reducing animosity along their tense border and to "actively cooperate" in the Games, which open on Feb. 9 in PyeongChang some 50 miles from the boundary. The sensitive discussions, held in Panmunjom, in the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ), were closed to outside observers. “We have high expectations that the Olympics turn out to be a peace festival with special guests from the North," said South Korea’s unification minister, Cho Myoung-gyon. His North Korean counterpart, Ri Son Gwon, added that he was optimistic about the talks as long as their “innocent intention and cooperation are united.” In the past, talks have not gone smoothly. Related: What it's like to live near world's most heavily guarded border Duyeon Kim, a visiting senior research fellow at the Korean Peninsula Future Forum, a think tank in Seoul, said previous summits were plagued by posturing and “nitpicking.” “It’s clear that the North is focused on the atmospherics and the PR aspects of these talks this time,” she said. “The big question will be what actions North Korea shows after the Winter Olympics. How will Kim Jong Un prove he is serious about inter-Korean relations?” During the latest talks, North Korea brought up sending a large entourage — including a high-level delegation, a performing arts group, athletes, cheerleading teams, media and others — to the Games, said South Korean Deputy Unification Minister Chun Hae-sung. The South raised other possible areas of cooperation, such as reuniting families separated by the Korean War in 1950-53 and ways to ease military tensions, Chun added. North Korean skaters Tae Ok Ryom and Ju Sik Kim qualified for the 2018 Winter Olympics.

"When the ancient Greeks used to hold the Olympics, they held a truce," said Moon Chung-in, a special adviser on foreign affairs and national security to South Korea’s President Moon Jae-in. "We are living in a civilized world. It is the logical choice." With the Games only weeks away, the participation of North Korean athletes also requires agreement from the International Olympic Committee in Geneva because North Korea missed a key deadline for registration. The Associated Press, citing Japanese media, reported Sunday that a delegation from North Korea was en route to Geneva. The IOC declined to confirm the visit to NBC News but said it was considering allowing the North Koreans to participate. Two North Korean figure skaters have qualified for the Games, and one issue that must be addressed during the negotiations is how they would travel to PyeongChang and where they would stay. A majority of South Koreans support helping to cover the expenses of the North Korean delegation, according to a poll taken last Friday and reported by South Korea's Yonhap News Agency. Related: N. Korea’s proposed talks don’t mean Kim will give up nukes, experts say "For the South Korean president, he's staking his political future on inter-Korean reconciliation, and he wants to try to broker U.S.-North Korea talks," said Kim of the Korean Peninsula Future Forum. For Kim Jong Un, securing participaton in Games is a chance to convince the world that his nation is not a dangerous rogue state, she said. The Olympics creates "an opportunity, an international platform, to raise its profile and its standing in the world," she added. North Korea's leader Kim Jong Un KCNA / Reuters file However, the risk that the renewed dialogue will be undermined by actions seen as provocative by either party remains high, even before a thaw. "The sooner talks with Americans get going at a high level, the better," said John Delury, an associate professor of East Asian studies at Yonsei University's Graduate School of International Studies. North Korea hasn’t engaged in negotiations over its nuclear program since the collapse of the "six-party" talks in 2009 involving North and South Korea, China, the U.S., Russia and Japan. Those talks were aimed at getting North Korea to give up its nuclear weapons program, but Pyongyang pulled out after facing international criticism for testing a missile.

El anuncio fue muy bien recibido por el presidente surcoreano, Moon Jae-in, quien dijo que la oferta de Kim es una "oportunidad sin precedentes" para mejorar las relaciones entre los dos países. Luego, ambas naciones reactivaron la "línea directa" telefónica por la que se han comunicado en las últimas décadas y que es gestionada por la Cruz Roja. Corea del Sur propuso entonces un encuentro bilateral y Corea del Norte aceptó.

"J'ai assuré au président de la République que je n'étais pas attaché au poste de chef de gouvernement. (Il) m'a demandé de rester car il ne s'agit pas d'une question personnelle mais de l'intérêt national", a dit M. Mikati dans une conférence de presse après une réunion d'urgence du conseil des ministres. Le président Michel Sleimane lui a demandé de rester pour éviter un "vide politique", a ajouté M. Mikati, précisant que le chef de l'Etat lui avait dit qu'il entendait consulter les principales forces politiques du pays avant de prendre une décision. "C'est pour cela que j'ai suspendu toute décision jusqu'à ce que le président me communique sa décision", a indiqué M. Mikati. Un responsable à la présidence a affirmé à l'AFP que M. Mikati "n'avait pas présenté sa démission mais avait exprimé auprès du président son intention de le faire". Cependant, "la décision a été suspendue en attendant la réunion de la table du dialogue national", a précisé ce responsable sous couvert de l'anonymat. Celle-ci était prévue le 12 novembre mais "le président pourrait avancer la date", a-t-il ajouté.

Zwei Blauhelmsoldaten in Haiti erschossen Die Männer aus Sri Lanka und Nepal kamen bei unterschiedlichen Zusammenstößen ums Leben. Lage auf der Insel bleibt schwierig Port-au-Prince - Im Karibikstaat Haiti sind am Sonntag von ehemaligen Soldaten die ersten beiden UN-Blauhelmsoldaten seit Beginn des Einsatzes im Juni 2004 getötet worden. Bei der Erstürmung eines seit Monaten von Rebellen besetzten Polizeikommissariats in Petit-Goave kam ein Blauhelmsoldat aus Sri Lanka sowie zwei ehemalige Soldaten der haitianischen Streitkräfte ums Leben. Zudem wurden 15 Menschen verletzt. Unter den Verwundeten seien auch drei UN-Blauhelmsoldaten. Bei einem anderen Zwischenfall starb ein nepalesisches Mitglied der tabilisierungstruppe, berichtete der US-Fernsehsender CNN. Bei der gemeinsamen Operation von UN-Blauhelmsoldaten und haitianischen Polizisten in Petit-Goave südwestlich der Hauptstadt Port-au-Prince wurden 35 ehemalige Soldaten festgenommen. Die Blauhelmsoldaten aus Sri Lanka und Nepal waren die ersten Todesopfer, die die UN-Friedenstruppe bei Militäroperationen seit Beginn ihres Einsatzes im Juni 2004 in Haiti zu beklagen hatte. Schwierige Lage auf der Karibikinsel Am 29. Februar 2004 hatte Präsident Jean Bertrand Aristide nach monatelangen Protesten gegen seine als diktatorisch empfundene Herrschaft und einem bewaffneten Aufstand auf internationalen Druck sein Rücktrittsschreiben unterzeichnet. Die von Brasilien geführte UN-Mission für die Stabilisierung Haitis (MINUSTAH) mit inzwischen gut 6000 Soldaten und 1480 Polizisten hat Mühe, die Ordnung aufrecht zu erhalten. Ehemalige Soldaten der von Aristide aufgelösten Armee beherrschen verschiedene Provinzen, während in Teilen der Hauptstadt noch immer die Schlägertrupps Aristides, die so genannten „Chimères“ ihr Unwesen treiben. Die dem ärmsten Land des Kontinents zugesagte internationale Hilfe von rund einer Milliarde Euro rollt nur sehr langsam an. Welt.de Artikel erschienen am Mo, 21. März 2005

Quienes están hartos de la sobredosis de Charlie Sheen en internet podrán recurrir a una aplicación, ideada por un colectivo de artistas, que permite eliminar en las páginas web toda referencia al polémico actor que está invadiendo los medios estadounidenses. Foto: CBS, Greg Gayne / AP El código "Tinted Sheen", elaborado por Greg Leuch para los navegadores Firefox y Chrome, borra todas las referencias sobre Charlie Sheen y bloquea el acceso a sus imágenes. "Lo siento, Charlie, pero es hora de salir de internet y volver a tu familia porno", indica un mensaje en el sitio del Free Art and Technology Lab (Laboratorio para un arte y una tecnología libres), desde donde se puede descargar la aplicación. Sheen fue despedido el lunes de la serie de TV "Two and a Half Men", después de sus recientes críticas a los productores y de aparecer en la prensa protagonizando escándalos con alcohol y otras drogas. La serie ya había sido cancelada por el resto de la temporada, luego de los repetidos ataques de Sheen a su productor, Chuck Lorre, hace dos semanas. Sheen es acusado de hacer comentarios antisemitas contra Chuck. El actor de 45 años se ha convertido en una fuente continua de noticias para la prensa sensacionalista por sus aventuras que presuntamente incluyen drogas duras, alcohol, prostitutas y actrices porno.

HAVANA — Communist-run Cuba said it dispatched a brigade of doctors and nurses to Italy for the first time this weekend to help in the fight against the novel coronavirus at the request of the worst-affected region Lombardy. The Caribbean island has sent its "armies of white robes" to disaster sites around the world largely in poor countries since its 1959 revolution. Its doctors were in the front lines in the fight against cholera in Haiti and against ebola in West Africa in the 2010s. Yet with the 52-strong brigade, this is the first time Cuba has sent an emergency contingent to Italy, one of the world's richest countries, demonstrating the reach of its medical diplomacy. This is the sixth medical brigade Cuba has sent in recent days to combat the spread of the new disease abroad. It has sent contingents to socialist allies Venezuela and Nicaragua as well as Jamaica, Suriname and Grenada.

No acidente, cinco pessoas morreram, 15 ainda estão desaparecidas e mais de 60 pessoas ficaram feridas. As equipes de socorro têm poucas esperanças de encontrar outros sobreviventes. Todos os 53 brasileiros a bordo, segundo o Itamaraty, sobreviveram. O procurador Francesco Verusio, encarregado das investigações, disse que a rota do navio estava errada. Segundo ele, o capitão da embarcação “aproximou-se de forma imprudente” da Ilha de Giglio. A empresa responsável pelo navio informou que o comandante, no passado, cometeu erros que “tiveram consequências graves”. A Justiça da Itália determinou a prisão de Schettino e de seu adjunto, acusados de homicídio múltiplo, naufrágio e abandono de navio bem antes da retirada dos passageiros. As autoridades italianas avançam ainda nas investigações para tentar descobrir as causas do acidente. As caixas-pretas do navio começaram a ser analisadas e as primeiras avaliações indicam que a embarcação estava muito próxima da costa – menos de 150 metros da terra firme. Também há indicações de que a Guarda Costeira só foi informada do acidente pela tripulação cerca de uma hora depois da colisão com o rochedo. Na madrugada de hoje (16) mais dois corpos foram localizados. Os cadáveres de dois homens idosos, um italiano e um espanhol, foram descobertos próximos da cozinha de um dos restaurantes do navio, vestidos com coletes salva-vidas. As outras três vítimas eram dois passageiros franceses e um tripulante peruano. Os primeiros relatos revelam detalhes sobre o momento do naufrágio. Segundo testemunhas, houve briga para o acesso aos coletes salva-vidas e parte da tripulação não estaria preparada para orientar os passageiros. Os diversos idiomas a bordo também dificultaram a comunicação na hora da evacuação do barco. Mais de 4,2 mil pessoas, de 60 nacionalidades, das quais 53 eram brasileiros estavam a bordo na hora do acidente na noite de sexta (13) para sábado (14). A maioria dos passageiros era formada por italianos, franceses e alemães. Dos 53 brasileiros, 47 eram passageiros e seis tripulantes. Segundo o Itamaraty, todos os brasileiros sobreviveram. *Com informações da emissora pública de rádio da França, RFI. Edição: Talita Cavalcante

16/01/2012 - 9h01 Renata Giraldi* Repórter da Agência Brasil Brasília - O ministro do Meio Ambiente da Itália, Corrado Clini, está receoso quanto à possibilidade de um desastre ecológico devido ao naufrágio do navio Costa Concordia, perto da Ilha de Giglio, na Toscana. O temor se baseia na possibilidade de vazar óleo combustível dos reservatórios da embarcação, considerando os abalos ocorridos no casco do navio. “Esse tem sido o nosso pesadelo”, disse o ministro. "O navio está com os tanques cheios de combustível. É um combustível denso e pesado, que pode se sedimentar no fundo e isso seria um desastre." Segundo o ministro, o combustível pode se dispersar-se no mar, contaminando a costa, prejudicando a fauna marinha e a alimentação dos pássaros. "Estamos preparados para intervir em caso de vazamento para o mar", disse Clini, lembrando que o casco do navio sofreu danos graves. Porém, o ministro ressaltou que “a prioridade é salvar os eventuais sobreviventes e começar a esvaziar [neste momento] os tanques é perigoso". Clini destacou ainda que já existem regras estabelecidas sobre a passagem de grandes embarcações pela costa italiana. Para ele, não é necessário aumentar o rigor. "A medida de prevenção será provavelmente associar a gestão dessas rotas às boas práticas. A ideia é unir os objetivos de proteção do ambiente já previstas", disse o ministro. O navio Costa Concordia naufragou na última sexta-feira (13). Havia 4,5 mil pessoas a bordo, das quais 53 eram brasileiras. Todos os brasileiros sobreviveram. Pelo menos seis pessoas morreram. *Com informações da agência pública de notícias de Portugal, Lusa. Edição: Talita Cavalcante

16/01/2012 - 23h14 Da BBC Brasil Brasília - As autoridades italianas atualizaram na noite de hoje (16) para 29 o número de desaparecidos no naufrágio do cruzeiro Costa Concordia. Pelo menos seis pessoas morreram no incidente com o navio, que transportava 4,2 mil pessoas, entre passageiros e tripulantes. Até então as autoridades trabalhavam com o número de 16 desaparecidos. O Itamaraty confirmou que 57 brasileiros, turistas e funcionários, viajavam no cruzeiro. Todos foram resgatados com vida. As autoridades também podem declarar estado de emergência, já que cerca de 2,4 mil toneladas de combustível poderiam vazar do navio, causando um grande impacto ambiental na costa da Toscana. O Costa Concordia naufragou na noite de sexta-feira (13), após se chocar com uma rocha na Ilha de Giglio. O chefe da Guarda Costeira local, Marco Bruso, disse que ainda há uma "ponta de esperança" de encontrar sobreviventes, mas reconheceu que as chances são pequenas. A maioria dos passageiros era dos Estados Unidos, da Alemanha, França e Itália. A embarcação havia deixado o porto de Civitavecchia na manhã de sexta-feira para um cruzeiro de uma semana pelo Mediterrâneo.

Le président malien Amadou Touré a démissionné dimanche. Il espère ainsi que les putschistes qui ont pris le pouvoir du pays décident de rebasculer vers un processus démocratique. Dans le même temps, les rebelles et les islamistes sèment toujours la terreur dans le Nord du pays, faisant des milliers de réfugiés. Le président malien Amadou Toumani Touré, renversé le 22 mars, a démissionné dimanche, ouvrant la voie au départ des putschistes et à l'arrivée d'un président de transition qui aura pour premier défi de pacifier le Nord aux mains des rebelles touareg et d'islamistes armés. Un groupe dissident d'Al-Qaïda au Maghreb islamique (Aqmi) a par ailleurs revendiqué l'enlèvement du consul d'Algérie et de six membres de sa mission jeudi à Gao, dans le nord-est du Mali, ce qui porte à 20 le nombre d'otages de jihadistes dans le Sahel. Il démissionne "sans pression" " J'ai décidé de vous remettre ma lettre de démission" , a déclaré Amadou Toumani Touré (ATT), en boubou et chéchia blancs, l'air fatigué et amaigri, en rencontrant le ministre burkinabè des Affaires étrangères Djibrill Bassolé, en charge de la médiation ouest-africaine. Sur des images diffusées par des télévisions, il a assuré démissionner " sans pression du tout", "de bonne foi" et " surtout pour l'amour " de son pays. Il s'agissait de la première apparition publique de l'ex-président Touré, dont le lieu de résidence est tenu secret depuis le putsch. M. Bassolé l'a rencontré au domicile d'un proche d'ATT dans l'ouest de Bamako. Dioncounda Traoré sera le président de la période de transition La junte a conclu vendredi un "accord-cadre" avec la médiation conduite par le Burkina Faso pour le compte de la Communauté économique des Etats d'Afrique de l'Ouest (Cédéao), par lequel elle s'engage à rendre le pouvoir aux civils après la démission d'ATT. Le chef de la junte, le capitaine Amadou Sanogo, s'est vu comme ses compagnons offrir l'amnistie. Il doit désormais se retirer au profit du président de l'Assemblée nationale, Dioncounda Traoré, qui sera le président de la période de transition devant s'achever par des élections présidentielle et législatives à une date non précisée. M. Traoré a reçu un appel téléphonique de M. Touré, qui lui a souhaité bon courage pour sa mission, d'après l'entourage du président du parlement. Quid du Premier ministre? Selon l'accord de vendredi, un Premier ministre de transition doit également être désigné, dont l'identité alimente les spéculations à Bamako. Parmi les noms qui circulent figurent celui d'un Arabe du Nord, Zahby Ould Sidi Mohamed, fonctionnaire de l'ONU au Soudan, mais aussi ceux de plusieurs candidats à la présidentielle, même si certains préféreraient une personnalité au profil moins partisan. La rébellion, largement "noyautée par les groupes terroristes" Réunis à Nouakchott, des ministres de la Mauritanie, de l'Algérie et du Niger - qui forment avec le Mali, absent, le groupe des pays " du champ " - ont appelé à " l'amorce d'un processus de négociation " entre un nouveau pouvoir central " fort et consensuel " à Bamako et la rébellion, qu'ils jugent pourtant " largement noyautée par les groupes armés terroristes ". Le Mouvement national de libération de l'Azawad (MNLA, rébellion touareg) a proclamé vendredi l'indépendance du Nord, déclaration rejetée par toute la communauté internationale. Sur le terrain, le MNLA ne semble plus maître du jeu, supplanté par les islamistes du mouvement Ansar Dine d'Iyad Ag Ghaly, appuyé par Aqmi.

11/04/2011 - 5h46 Renata Giraldi Repórter da Agência Brasil Brasília – Os resultados preliminares das eleições presidenciais no Peru indicam que o candidato apontado como de esquerda, o militar da reserva Ollanta Humala, de 47 anos, e Keiko Fujimori, de 35, filha do ex-presidente Alberto Fujimori (1990-2000), vão se enfrentar no segundo turno marcado para 5 de junho. A posse ocorrerá em 26 de julho e a presidenta Dilma Rousseff está na lista dos convidados estrangeiros. As informações são da agência pública de notícias da Argentina, a Telam. Nas votações ontem (10), do total de 58% de urnas apuradas até o começo da noite, Humala obteve 31,8% dos votos e Keiko 22,8%. Outro candidato, o ex-ministro da Economia Pedro Pablo Kuczynski, ficou com 19,6%. Durante toda a campannha eleitoral, Humala liderou as pesquisas de intenção de voto. Especialistas brasileiros que acompanham o processo eleitoral no Peru apostavam no segundo turno. Cerca de 1,8 milhão de eleitores estavam cadastrados para votar nestas eleições, nas quais também foram escolhidos os ocupantes das 130 cadeiras do Congresso Nacional e 15 políticos para o Parlamento Andino – dos quais cinco serão titulares e dez suplentes. Durante a campanha, Keiko Fujimori usou boa parte do tempo para defender seu pai, que virou tema principal de ataques dos adversários políticos. Acusado de corrupção, desvio de verba pública e violação de direitos humanos, o ex-presidente tinha a imagem associada à filha. De acordo com analistas, Keiko conquistou parte do eleitorado por causa do discurso direcionado ao campo. Humala foi candidato em 2006 e perdeu as eleições para o atual presidente do Peru, Alan García. De lá para cá, passou a se dedicar à aproximação de todos os segmentos da sociedade. A iniciativa ampliou sua vantagem sobre os adversários, embora tenha esbarrado em críticas dos conservadores por manter uma relação próxima aos presidentes da Venezuela, Hugo Chávez, e da Bolívia, Evo Morales. O novo governo do Peru assume um país que registrou crescimento econômico médio de 8% ao ano, mas enfrenta turbulências no cenário nacional e tensões com alguns vizinhos, como os chilenos, por causa de controvérsias territoriais. Internamente, conflitos entre indígenas e policiais levaram, no ano passado, à morte 34 pessoas. O governo de Alan García ficou na mira dos críticos e da oposição. Em 2010, o comércio bilateral envolveu US$ 565,85 milhões, com superávit favorável ao Brasil de US$ 178,098 milhões. O comércio entre os dois países é baseado na exportação automóveis, maquinários, peças de reposição de veículos e alguns produtos industrializados. A importação está concentrada nos minérios.

Publicidade Com 43% dos votos apurados, o candidato nacionalista Ollanta Humala (centro-esquerda) está liderando o primeiro turno das eleições presidenciais do Peru, realizadas neste domingo. Humala, que durante a campanha se distanciou de Hugo Chávez e adotou um discurso mais conciliador, tem 27% dos votos apurados até o momento, enquanto o ex-primeiro-ministro Pedro Pablo Kuczynski conta com 23,6% e a candidata conservadora Keiko Fujimori, filha do ex-presidente Alberto Fujimori, tem 21,8% dos votos. As pesquisas de boca-de-urna apontaram, no entanto, que o segundo turno, em junho, deveria ser disputado entre Humala, que conseguirira entre 31 e 34% dos votos, e Keiko Fujimori. Keiko obteve, nas pesquisas realizadas antes da apuração, entre 21% e 22% dos votos, seguida muito de perto pelo ex-ministro de Economia Pedro Pablo Kuczynski (com ao redor de 20%). O ex-presidente Alejandro Toledo estava em quarto, com 15%. O resultado do segundo turno é incerto: apesar da liderança nos votos, Humala conta com grande rejeição por parte do eleitorado, que critica sua proximidade com o presidente venezuelano. O pleito de domingo, um dos mais disputados da história recente do Peru, definirá o sucessor do presidente Alan García e a nova composição do Parlamento. De acordo com pesquisas e especialistas, nenhum candidato presidencial conseguirá obter apoio da maioria das 130 cadeiras na composição do novo Parlamento, o que deve obrigar o vencedor a formar um governo de coalizão. Segundo a OEA (Organização dos Estados Americanos), que atuou como observadora eleitoral, a votação transcorreu "com normalidade e tranquilidade". PROMESSAS E DÍVIDA ELEITORAL Humala prometeu em campanha incrementar a presença do Estado na economia do país e propõe a nacionalização de setores e recursos considerados estratégicos, como o petróleo e gás. Em seu último comício, ele pediu à população que votasse "sem medo" de mudanças. Já Keiko Fujimori apostou no polêmico legado do pai --cujo governo foi marcado por violações de direitos humanos e escândalos de corrupção-- para tentar se tornar a primeira mulher presidente do Peru. Quem sair vitorioso do processo eleitoral que começa neste domingo herdará um país com uma economia relativamente estável, mas com uma acentuada dívida social. A economia do Peru cresceu a uma média de 7% nos últimos anos, o maior crescimento registrado na região, graças à alta dos preços dos minerais, uma das bases de sua economia. García fortaleceu a tendência econômica primária-exportadora, com uma política voltada à ampliação do livre comércio e de atração a investimentos estrangeiros. Por outro lado, o crescimento da economia não trouxe uma redução da brecha social entre ricos e pobres. Cerca de um terço dos cerca de 30 milhões de peruanos vive na pobreza. No campo, esse índice supera 60% da população. "A desigualdade social aumentou. A maior parte da população vê que há geração de riquezas, mas que não chegam até elas", afirmou à BBC Brasil o sociólogo David Sulmont, professor da Universidade Católica do Peru. "A economia cresceu mais do que o bem-estar da população." Para Lorena Alcazar, do Grupo de Análise para o Desenvolvimento (GRADE), o principal desafio do novo presidente será diminuir a brecha social que, a seu ver, gera tensão, em especial nas classes populares.

Le sculpteur sénégalais Ousmane Sow, le 20 mai 2015 à La Rochelle en France Le Sénégal a perdu jeudi une de ses plus grandes figures dans le domaine de l'art, le sculpteur Ousmane Sow décédé à l'âge de 81 ans, "un géant" et "un monument" qui a fait honneur à toute l'Afrique. Connu pour ses sculptures monumentales de guerriers qui ont fait le tour du monde, Sow - lui-même de complexion robuste, mesurant 1m93 - est né le 10 octobre 1935 à Dakar et n'est devenu artiste qu'à l'âge de 50 ans, après avoir exercé comme kinésithérapeute en banlieue parisienne et au Sénégal. Selon sa famille, jointe par l'AFP depuis Paris, il est décédé à l'Hôpital Principal de Dakar, sans autres précisions sur ce dont il souffrait et la durée de son hospitalisation. Il a "été très bien assisté médicalement", a simplement indiqué la même source, ajoutant: "Il emporte avec lui rêves et projets que son organisme trop fatigué n'a pas voulu suivre". Jusqu'à jeudi après-midi, aucune précision n'avait pu être obtenue sur la date de ses obsèques à Dakar, où il menait une vie très discrète. "Un grand artiste du Sénégal vient de nous quitter. J'appréciais l'homme autant que son oeuvre. Mes condoléances à la famille d'Ousmane Sow", a écrit le président sénégalais Macky Sall sur son compte Twitter, publiant une vidéo de 57 secondes dans laquelle le sculpteur s'exprime sur son art. Le sculpteur sénégalais Ousmane Sow, le 5 avril 2001 à Dakar © Seyllou AFP/Archives "Il n'y a pas de corps parfait, ça me donne la liberté de ne pas faire comme les Grecs, c'est-à-dire des sculptures bien calibrées, et ça, je l'ai acquis par mon métier de kinésithérapeute", explique dans ce petit film Sow, cheveux et barbe blancs accentuant son teint noir. La présidence sénégalaise avait déjà salué "un artiste de génie", rappelant qu'il a été le "premier Africain à rejoindre l'Académie française des Beaux-Arts" en tant que membre associé étranger en 2013. Son décès est "une très grosse perte pour la sculpture sénégalaise et africaine", a dit à l'AFP le ministre sénégalais de la Culture Mbagnick Ndiaye depuis Abou Dhabi. Depuis 1992, le Sénégal abrite tous les deux ans le "Dak'Art", une des plus importantes manifestations des arts visuels en Afrique. - "Mélange resté secret" - Le chef de l'Etat français François Hollande a salué en Ousmane Sow "un immense artiste et un ami de la France". "Ses oeuvres sont le reflet de ses engagements, et ses géants se tenaient toujours debout", a-t-il ajouté. En France, beaucoup se rappellent une mémorable exposition de Sow en 1999 lors d'une rétrospective sur le Pont des Arts, à Paris: guerriers Maasaï du Kenya, lutteurs Nouba du Soudan du Sud, Indiens d'Amérique. Ousmane Sow a été le premier Africain à rejoindre le 11 décembre 2013 l'Académie des Beaux-arts française en tant que membre associé étranger. © ERIC FEFERBERG AFP/Archives A La Rochelle (sud-ouest de la France), trône depuis mai 2015 une autre des imposantes créations, une statue du révolutionnaire et indépendantiste Toussaint Louverture, ancien esclave devenu gouverneur d'Haïti (1743-1803). Au Sénégal et à travers le monde, sur les médias ou les réseaux sociaux, les hommages affluaient également, exprimés par des personnalités très diverses: hommes politiques, artistes, journalistes, simples citoyens, les mots revenant le plus souvent étant "géant" et "monument". Ndiaye Diagne, sculpteur à Dakar, dit qu'il fut "un père pour tous les artistes sénégalais" mais aussi un homme "universel". Pour le plasticien Vieux Diba, professeur à l'Ecole nationale des arts (Ena) et président de la plate-forme des arts visuels au Sénégal, Ousmane Sow a fait montre à travers son oeuvre d'"un humanisme qui met en scène le corps et qui met l'homme au coeur de la problématique sociale". "Il a poussé l'originalité jusqu'à créer une matière spéciale faite de résine de paille, une matière nouvelle dont lui seul avait le secret", a rappelé M. Diba. Le grand public a découvert le sculpteur Ousmane Sow en mars 1999 lors d'une rétrospective sur le Pont des Arts à Paris © ALEXANDER JOE AFP/Archives Cette matière "est un mélange resté secret, qu'il a réussi à stabiliser au fil du temps", a souligné à l'AFP Massamba Mbaye, critique d'art sénégalais. Pour certains, esthétiquement, "il était très proche de Rodin [Auguste Rodin, sculpteur français] mais Ousmane Sow est un artiste qui a produit ses propres bases, on n'a pas besoin de le comparer à quelqu'un", a ajouté M. Mbaye. Selon lui, dans le monde de l'art au Sénégal, Sow était l'artiste "le plus coté, avec la potière Awa Seyni Camara", une septuagénaire autodidacte. 01/12/2016 18:58:03 - Dakar (AFP) - © 2016 AFP

Today marks the end of the 10th outbreak of Ebola virus disease in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). This long, complex and difficult outbreak has been overcome due to the leadership and commitment of the Government of the DRC, supported by the World Health Organization (WHO), a multitude of partners, donors, and above all, the efforts of the communities affected by the virus. WHO congratulates all those involved in the arduous and often dangerous work required to end the outbreak, but stresses the need for vigilance. Continuing to support survivors and maintaining strong surveillance and response systems in order to contain potential flare-ups is critical in the months to come. "The outbreak took so much from all of us, especially from the people of DRC, but we came out of it with valuable lessons, and valuable tools. The world is now better-equipped to respond to Ebola. A vaccine has been licensed, and effective treatments identified,” said WHO Director-General Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus. “We should celebrate this moment, but we must resist complacency. Viruses do not take breaks. Ultimately, the best defence against any outbreak is investing in a stronger health system as the foundation for universal health coverage.” The outbreak, declared in North Kivu on 1 August 2018, was the second largest in the world, and was particularly challenging as it took place an active conflict zone. There were 3470 cases, 2287 deaths and 1171 survivors. Led by the DRC Government and the Ministry of Health and supported by WHO and partners, the more than 22-month-long response involved training thousands of health workers, registering 250 000 contacts, testing 220 000 samples, providing patients with equitable access to advanced therapeutics, vaccinating over 303 000 people with the highly effective rVSV-ZEBOV-GP vaccine, and offering care for all survivors after their recovery. The response was bolstered by the engagement and leadership of the affected communities. Thanks to their efforts, this outbreak did not spread globally. More than 16 000 local frontline responders worked alongside the more than 1500 people deployed by WHO. Support from donors was essential, as was the work of UN partner agencies, national and international NGOs, research networks, and partners deployed through the Global Outbreak Alert and Response Network. Hard work to build up preparedness capacities in neighbouring countries also limited the risk of the outbreak expanding. Work will continue to build on the gains made in this response to address other health challenges, including measles and COVID-19. “During the almost two years we fought the Ebola virus, WHO and partners helped strengthen the capacity of local health authorities to manage outbreaks,” said Dr Matshidiso Moeti, WHO Regional Director for Africa. “The DRC is now better, smarter and faster at responding to Ebola and this is an enduring legacy which is supporting the response to COVID-19 and other outbreaks.” As countries around the world face the COVID-19 pandemic, the DRC Ebola response provides valuable lessons. Many of the public health measures that have been successful in stopping Ebola are the same measures that are now essential for stopping COVID-19: finding, isolating, testing, and caring for every case and relentless contact tracing. In DRC, community workers were provided with training and a smartphone data collection app that enabled them to track contacts and report in real time rather than fill in laborious paper reports. Even when violence locked down cities, the community workers, many of them local women, continued to track and trace contacts using the application, something that was crucial for ending this outbreak. While this 10th outbreak in DRC has ended, the fight against Ebola continues. On 1 June 2020, seven cases of Ebola were reported in Mbandaka city and neighbouring Bikoro Health Zone in Equateur Province and an 11th outbreak was declared. WHO is supporting the government-led response with more than 50 staff already deployed and more than 5000 vaccinations already administered. WHO salutes the thousands of heroic responders who fought one of the world’s most dangerous viruses in one of the world’s most unstable regions. Some health workers, including WHO experts, paid the ultimate price and sacrificed their lives to the Ebola response. Note to Editors WHO thanks the donors who provided funding to WHO for the Ebola response under the Strategic Response Plans: African Development Bank, Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, Canada, China, Denmark, ECHO, European Commission/DEVCO, Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Norway, Paul Allen Foundation, Republic of Korea, Sweden, Switzerland, Susan T Buffett Foundation, UK DFID, UN CERF, USAID/OFDA, US CDC, Wellcome Trust, World Bank, World Bank Pandemic Emergency Financing Facility. Several donors also provided funding to the WHO Contingency Fund for Emergencies in recognition of the critical role the fund has played in responding to the Ebola outbreak.

A declarou ontem, 25 de junho, o fim do 10º surto de na (RDC). "Este longo, complexo e difícil surto foi superado devido à liderança e comprometimento do governo da RDC, apoiado pela Organização Mundial da Saúde (OMS), uma multidão de parceiros, doadores e, acima de tudo, aos esforços das comunidades afetadas pelo vírus", escreveu a organização em seu webiste. Um 11º surto está ativo no país, na região de Wangata, Mbandaka, na província de . '''O surto''' O surto, declarado em Kivu do Norte em 1º de agosto de 2018, foi o segundo maior do mundo e foi particularmente desafiador, pois ocorreu numa zona de conflito ativa. Houve 3.470 casos, 2.287 mortes e 1.171 sobreviventes. Liderada pelo governo da RDC e pelo Ministério da Saúde e apoiada pela OMS e parceiros, a resposta ao surto durou mais de 22 meses e envolveu o treinamento de milhares de profissionais de saúde, o registro de 250.000 contatos, a testagem de 220.000 pessoas, o atendimento médico equitativo dos pacientes, a vacinação altamente eficaz de mais de 303.000 pessoas com a vacina ''rVSV-ZEBOV-GP'' e o atendimento médico a todos os sobreviventes após a recuperação. A resposta foi reforçada pelo envolvimento e liderança das comunidades afetadas, pois graças a seus esforços, esse surto não se espalhou globalmente. Mais de 16.000 congoleses trabalharam na linha de frente local, ao lado de mais de 1.500 trabalhadores da OMS. O apoio dos doadores foi essencial, assim como o trabalho das agências parceiras da ONU, ONGs nacionais e internacionais, redes de pesquisa e parceiros que se uniram à Rede Global de Alerta e Resposta a Surtos. O trabalho duro aumentou a capacidade de preparação nos países vizinhos e também limitou o risco de expansão do surto. Além disto, continuará proporcionou conhecimentos para enfrentar outros desafios à saúde, incluindo o combate ao sarampo e à . "A RDC agora está melhor, mais inteligente e mais rápida em responder ao ebola e este é um legado duradouro que ajuda na resposta ao COVID-19 e outros surtos".

Itália vence EUA de virada e lidera o grupo B Plantão | Publicada em 15/06/2009 às 18h05m O Globo R1 R2 R3 R4 R5 Dê seu voto R1 R2 R3 R4 R5 Comente Comentários RIO - O grupo B mostrou logo na primeira rodada por que é considerado o mais difícil da Copa das Confederações. Depois da difícil vitória brasileira sobre o Egito de manhã , à tarde foi a vez da Itália sofrer para bater de virada os Estados Unidos, por 3 a 1. Com um jogador a mais desde o fim do primeiro tempo, os italianos viram o adversário abrir o placar ainda antes do intervalo. Mas três belos gols na etapa final, marcados por Rossi (dois) e De Rossi, garantiram os três pontos para a Azzurra ( confira a fotogaleria da partida ). A Itália tem os mesmos três pontos do Brasil, mas lidera a chave pelo saldo de gols - dois contra um ( confira a classificação dos dois grupos ). Na segunda rodada, quinta-feira, os italianos vão enfrentar o Egito, enquanto os americanos terão pela frente a seleção brasileira ( veja a tabela de jogos ). Quem se acostumou com os inícios arrasadores de Espanha (que fez três gols em 15 minutos nos 5 a 0 sobre a Nova Zelândia, domingo) e Brasil (que vencia por 2 a 1 com menos de 15 minutos de jogo), o começo de Itália x EUA foi de dar sono: muita troca de passes no meio-campo e poucas chances de gol. Autor de dois gols italianos, Rossi nasceu nos EUA O jogo só começou de verdade aos 20 minutos, quando Legrottalie apareceu livre na área americana, e no entanto cabeceou para fora. Mesmo enfrentando os atuais campeões mundiais, os americanos não ficaram só na defesa. Bradley e Altidore tiveram boas chances mas concluíram mal. Aos 33, Clark foi expulso por falta violenta no italiano Gattuso. Mesmo com um jogador a menos, porém, os americanos conseguiram abrir o placar de pênalti: Altidore foi derrubado na área por Chiellini. Donovan cobrou com categoria e fez 1 a 0, aos 40 minutos. Com pouco mais de dez minutos do segundo tempo, o técnico Marcelo Lippi decidiu fazer duas mudanças na Itália: entraram Rossi e Montolivo nas vagas de Gattuso e Camoranesi. E a estrela do treinador não demorou a brilhar: no seu primeiro lance, Rossi roubou a bola no meio-campo e, da intermediária, acertou um belo chute de pé esquerda, aos 13 minutos. Um golaço do meia italiano, que por ironia nasceu nos Estados Unidos. A Itália passou a pressionar e quase conseguiu a virada aos 22: Howard salvou o chute forte de Pirlo e, na sobra, Iaquinta mandou por cima do travessão. Mas o segundo gol não demorou muito: aos 25, De Rossi também arriscou de fora da área, no canto esquerdo de Howard. Mesmo em vantagem, a Itália continuou atacando e teve várias chances de ampliar o placar, o que só aconteceu já nos acréscimos. Pirlo cruzou da esquerda e Rossi completou de primeira, fazendo o gol que deixou os italianos na liderança da chave.

Por AE Pretória - A Itália sofreu, mas conseguiu confirmar seu favoritismo e estrear com vitória na Copa das Confederações, competição disputada um ano antes do Mundial da África do Sul, em que a equipe tentará repetir a conquista de 2006. Nesta segunda-feira, em Pretória, o time de Marcello Lippi derrotou os Estados Unidos por 3 a 1, de virada. Com a vitória, a Itália assumiu a liderança do Grupo B com três pontos, assim como o Brasil, mas com saldo de gols superior ao da equipe dirigida por Dunga. Egito e Estados Unidos ocupam as últimas colocações, já que ainda não pontuaram. A seleção italiana teve o domínio da partida, mas com dificuldades de criação teve problemas para criar lances perigosos no primeiro tempo e foi para o intervalo em desvantagem. Na etapa final, porém, aproveitando da vantagem numérica, a Itália pressionou os Estados Unidos e conseguiu a virada, evitando nova igualdade com a equipe norte-americana. Na Copa do Mundo de 2006, as duas equipes empataram por 1 a 1. As duas seleções voltam a jogar na quinta-feira pela segunda rodada do Grupo B da Copa das Confederações. Os Estados Unidos vão enfrentar o Brasil, às 11 horas (horário de Brasília), em Pretória. Já a Itália encara o Egito, a partir das 15h30, em Johannesburgo. O JOGO - A partida começou em ritmo lento. A Itália tinha mais posse de bola e trocava passes, mas parava na forte marcação dos Estados Unidos. E a primeira finalização foi norte-americana, após cobrança de falta sofrida por Altidore. Aos oito minutos, Dempsey chutou forte, mas por cima do gol de Buffon. A jogada parece ter acordado a Itália, que passou a apresentar mais objetividade. Pirlo cruzou para Camoranesi, que chutou para fora, aos dez minutos. Aos 11, De Rossi lançou Iaquinta, que ajeitou para Gilardino. O atacante finalizou e Howard defendeu com tranquilidade. Melhor em campo, a Itália teve sua principal chance de gol aos 20 minutos. Pirlo cobrou falta para área e Legrottaglie cabeceou para fora. A seleção dos Estados Unidos, porém, chegou com perigo em contra-ataques. Aos 24, Donovan avançou e tocou para Bradley, que chutou fraco e facilitou a defesa de Buffon. Legrottaglie, aos 28, perdeu nova chance em cabeceio, após cruzamento de Camoranesi. A Itália voltou a assustar aos 31 minutos, com Howard espalmando cobrança de falta de Pirlo. E no minuto seguinte a seleção dos Estados Unidos ficou com dez jogadores, após Clark cometer falta dura em Gattuso. Aos 39 minutos, o árbitro Pablo Pozo anulou um gol da Itália. Zambrotta foi lançado, mas antes que a bola chegasse ao italiano, Bornstein desviou para a própria meta. Para sua sorte, o italiano estava impedido. E a seleção dos Estados Unidos chegou ao gol aos 41 minutos. Altidore foi derrubado na área por Chiellini. Na cobrança, Donovan converteu com categoria, deslocando Buffon. Aos 42 minutos, Bradley obrigou o goleiro italiano a defender em dois tempos após chute forte. A Itália, em desvantagem, teve boa chance em seguida. Após escanteio, Zambrotta finalizou de fora da área, mas para fora. A Itália retornou para o segundo tempo com mais iniciativa, mas com dificuldade para superar os marcadores. Tanto que só conseguiu finalizar aos dez minutos, com Iaquinta, de cabeça, após cobrança de escanteio de Pirlo. Em seguida, o técnico Marcello Lippi promoveu as entradas de Montolivo e de Giuseppe Rossi, que nasceu nos Estados Unidos. E foi Rossi, em jogada individual, que empatou o duelo. Aos 12 minutos, ele roubou a bola no meio-de-campo e chutou forte de fora da área, no canto esquerdo do gol defendido por Howard. Aproveitando a vantagem numérica, a Itália pressionava os Estados Unidos, mas perdia várias chances. Aos 16, Pirlo cruzou, Chiellini desviou para trás e Iaquinta chutou para fora. O atacante desperdiçou nova oportunidade aos 22 minutos. Pirlo chutou, Howard espalmou e Iaquinta finalizou por cima da meta norte-americana. A Itália chegou ao gol da virada aos 26 minutos. De Rossi bateu de fora da área, sem chance de defesa para Howard e colocou a equipe em vantagem. A equipe italiana passou a tocar a bola com menos objetividade, mas mesmo assim chegou com perigo aos 32 minutos. Montolivo bateu da entrada da área e Howard defendeu com dificuldade. Aos 42, Luca Toni desperdiçou cruzamento de Grosso ao cabecear fraco. A seleção dos Estados Unidos se arriscou nos minutos finais e desperdiçou chances com Kljestan e Davies. A Itália, com mais espaço, finalizou com Rossi e Toni antes de marcar o terceiro gol. Pirlo fez boa jogada individual e cruzou para Rossi, que finalizou de primeira e marcou o seu segundo gol na vitória italiana.

While large number of professionals have been told to work from home, the Department of Public Instruction (DPI) has issued a timetable that teachers of primary and high school should follow till March 31. The move has drawn flak from the teachers. This comes after the State government announced summer vacation for all primary students and asked schools to defer examination for classes seven, eight and nine. The timetable has been chalked out for all teachers of government and aided schools who are not posted for SSLC examination duty. Incidentally, while the State government has asked people to practice social distancing, DPI has asked teachers to conduct a meeting with the School Development Monitoring Committee (SDMC) and finalise an education plan for schools. Some of the other tasks they have been asked to do for the next two weeks includes formulating a three-year-plan for the school based on assessment of resources. The teachers have also been told to finalise an academic plan for the 2020-2021 academic year. They have been asked to come up with a teaching solution for students after analysing the learning outcomes of students based on the assessment. They have also been asked to set a question paper before the bridge course begins. The teachers have also been asked to sort out books for the library and sports items as well. They have been asked to prepare teaching aids and take up initiatives to beautify the school. In addition to this, the circular also points out that teachers should brainstorm on what they will do on two Saturdays in a month that are bagless days. They have also been asked to frame content for the road safety and civic lessons. They have also been asked to plan extra curricular activities and take stock of the godown, come up with a waste management plan, identify and ensure that minor repair works for the schools are completed along with the SDMC and the locals. Manjunath H.K., president of the Karnataka State High School Assistant Masters’ Association said, “Is the health of the teachers not important? Many of our teachers travel nearly 30 kms to reach school. They also use public transport to get to school. When the government has asked people to stay at home and stay safe, it should apply to our teachers as well,” he said. Another primary school teacher said that most of the planning could be done from the comfort of their homes as well. “These are things we always plan and do not need officials to chalk out a timetable for us,” she said. Department officials however said that the timetable has been planned after much deliberation.

No sábado, centenas de pessoas compareceram a uma festa ''gaumutra'' (festa da urina de vaca) para combater o . A festa foi organizada pelo presidente da União Indiana Hindu (ABHM), Swami Chakrapani, onde os participantes consumiram para evitar que fossem infectados pelo coronavírus. A Reuters estimou que cerca de 200 pessoas participaram do evento realizado na capital indiana de . Em entrevista à , um participante Om Prakash disse: "Bebemos urina de vaca há 21 anos, também tomamos banho no esterco de vaca. Nunca sentimos a necessidade de consumir remédios ingleses". Um ''yajña'' (literalmente significa sacrifício, devoção, adoração ou oferenda) foi realizado no início da reunião e um cartaz sobre coronavírus, personificado como um do , foi exibido. No evento, o presidente da ABHM, Chakrapani, disse que "o coronavírus veio por causa das pessoas que matam e comem animais. Quando você mata um animal, ele cria um tipo de energia que causa destruição naquele local". Em fevereiro, Chakrapani disse: "Corona não é um vírus, mas um avatar para a proteção de criaturas pobres. Eles passaram a dar a mensagem de morte e punição a quem os come". O COVID-19 foi anteriormente anunciado como uma "" pela (OMS). De acordo com o relatório de situação da OMS de 16 de março, o vírus matou 6606 vidas e foram notificados 167.515 casos dessa doença. O site da OMS afirmou: "Embora alguns remédios ocidentais, tradicionais ou domésticos possam proporcionar conforto e aliviar os sintomas do COVID-19, não há evidências de que o medicamento atual possa prevenir ou curar a doença. A OMS não recomenda a automedicação com medicamentos, incluindo antibióticos, como prevenção ou cura do COVID-19". No entanto, dirigindo-se aos líderes globais, Chakrapani propôs: "Peço a todos os presidentes e primeiros ministros do mundo que tomem urina de vaca diariamente. Você tem todos esses cientistas que não conhecem a cura, nós temos a cura dada a nós pelos deuses". Chakrapani havia dito: "Corona ficou quieto na Índia por causa dos rituais ''yajña''. Mas esses ministros ignorantes e arrogantes de desafiaram o corona matando animais e comendo frango em público. Assim, esses ministros devem buscar perdão imediatamente, caso contrário, será um desastre que ninguém possa parar". No início deste mês, Chakrapani disse ao ''ThePrint'': "Assim como organizamos festas de chá, decidimos organizar uma festa ''gaumutra'', na qual informaremos as pessoas sobre o que é o coronavírus e como, consumindo produtos relacionados a vacas, as pessoas podem ser salvas dele". As vacas são consideradas sagradas pelos hindus e pelos políticos nacionalistas do que já haviam citado os benefícios medicinais da urina de vaca. Sentimentos semelhantes foram compartilhados por um ministro da Assembleia Legislativa de no início deste mês. Suman Haripriya, da Assembleia do Hajo, disse que "o coronavírus é uma doença transmitida pelo ar e pode ser curada usando o ''gaumutra'' e esterco de vaca". Segundo os relatórios do Centro Johns Hopkins de Ciência e Engenharia de Sistemas, existem pelo menos 142 casos na , dos quais três pacientes morreram. Quatorze se recuperaram até agora no país. Várias escolas e faculdades estão fechadas em todo o país como medida de precaução para retardar a propagação deste vírus. Os passageiros nos aeroportos estão sendo rastreados para garantir a segurança.

Members of All India Hindu Mahasabha drink cow urine as they attend a gaumutra (cow urine) party, which according to them helps warding off coronavirus disease (COVID-19), in New Delhi, India March 14, 2020. REUTERS/Danish Siddiqui NEW DELHI (Reuters) - A Hindu group hosted a cow urine drinking party on Saturday as they believe it wards off the coronavirus, as many Hindus consider the cow sacred and some drink cow urine believing it has medicinal properties. Experts have repeatedly asserted that cow urine does not cure illnesses like cancer and there is no evidence that it can prevent coronavirus. The “party,” hosted by a group called the Akhil Bharat Hindu Mahasabha (All India Hindu Union) at its headquarters in the country’s capital, was attended by 200 people, and the organizers hoped to host similar events elsewhere in India. “We have been drinking cow urine for 21 years, we also take bath in cow dung. We have never felt the need to consume English medicine,” said Om Prakash, a person who attended the party. Chakrapani Maharaj, the chief of the All India Hindu Union, posed for photographs as he placed a spoon filled with cow urine near the face of a caricature of the coronavirus. Leaders from Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Hindu nationalist party have advocated the use of cow urine as medicine and a cure for cancer. A leader from India’s north eastern state of Assam told state lawmakers earlier this month during an assembly session that cow urine and cow dung can be used to treat the coronavirus. The pathogen, which has infected more than 138,000 people worldwide and left over 5,000 dead, has no known scientific cure and governments across the world are struggling to control the spread of the pandemic.

People lined up for their share of cow urine being poured from kettles into ‘kulhads’, at a ‘gaumutra party’ (cow urine party) here organised by Swami Chakrapani, the president of the Akhil Bharat Hindu Mahasabha. The event began with a ‘yagna’ and prayers to the cow and the virus itself, asking it to leave peacefully and not kill any more people. A large poster in the backdrop depicted an avatar of Hindu god Narsingh as the virus. At the event, Chakrapani claimed that COVID-19 is an “avatar” that has “come to punish those who eat non-vegetarian food.” Asking for forgiveness from the virus on behalf of meat eaters, he pledged that Indians will never eat meat again. “Coronavirus has come because of the people who kill and eat animals. When you kill an animal, it creates a sort of energy that causes destruction in that place,” said Chakprapani at the event. “They (global leaders) should get cow urine imported from India because the almighty resides only in the Indian cow and not in any foreign breed,” he said. His comments came even as the Centre has asked people not to pay attention to “false rumours” that the COVID-19 was spreading through non-vegetarian food like eggs, chicken, mutton and seafood. Coronavirus updates | March 14, 2020 | Central and State helpline numbers Union Fisheries, Dairying and Animal Husbandry Minister Giriraj Singh told reporters on March 6 the World Organisation for Animal Health as well as Indian food safety regulator FSSAI have said there was no scientific evidence to prove transmission of coronavirus from animals to humans. “The false rumour has hit thousands of farmers engaged in this business. The livelihood of farmers and the people engaged in the entire value chain have been affected. I humbly request people not to fall prey to such rumours,” the minister had said. While medical practitioners across the world have said there is no cure as such for coronavirus, Chakrapani claimed that cow urine is the “only cure” for COVID-19 and requested global leaders to consume the “miracle liquid” and lead by example in the fight against the contagious viral disease. “All our leaders and officials consume ‘gaumutra’ But they do so behind closed doors and when they are sick. It doesn’t work like that,” he said, insisting that cow urine should be consumed on a daily basis to keep diseases at bay. “They (leaders) are ashamed of the gift gods have given us. Cow urine is pure elixir. Every person should drink it.” The event began with a ‘yagna’ and prayers to the cow and the virus itself, asking it to leave peacefully and not kill any more people. A large poster in the backdrop depicted an avatar of Hindu god Narsingh as coronavirus. Coronavirus | Masks, sanitisers declared essential commodities Chakrapani emphasised that global leaders should import ‘gau mutra’ from India as the cow giving the “miracle elixir” must be of an Indian breed only. “I request all the presidents and prime ministers of the world to take cow urine on a daily basis. You have all these scientists who don’t know the cure, we have the cure given to us by the gods,” he claimed. Coronavirus | Interactive map of confirmed coronavirus cases in India Kriti Bhushan, former DG of Directorate General of Health Services, told PTI there is no scientific evidence behind claims that cow urine can cure coronavirus. “In medical science, we only call something a cure after testing it on a 100 people or more. This is a unilateral claim and has no basis to it. In fact, currently there’s no cure available for coronavirus. A lot of scientists are continuously working to find a solution,” he said. Rajesh Sharma, a volunteer at the event, vouched for its “miraculous” properties while offering the drink to others around him. “You have just one glass today and by tomorrow morning you will know the difference. Gaumutra can cure all diseases, I can give it to you in writing,” Sharma claimed. Savita, a housewife from Paschim Vihar, came all the way to attend the ‘gaumutra party’ “I drink gaumutra on a daily basis, there is nothing healthier than this. Everyone in my family drinks it,” she said while sipping from a glass full of cow urine.

Yesterday, the start of the Indian Premier League, the world's most lucrative cricket competition, was postponed from March 29 until April 15 due to the pandemic. Sports events worldwide have been upended by the deadly virus, including the Premier League, this weekend's Formula One Australian Grand Prix as well as PGA Tour golf and NBA basketball. The drinkers of the cow urine hope that it might provide some protection against coronavirus They are hoping to host more events around the country for others to take part The hope that the urine will guard against the virus comes despite there having only been 84 cases in the country 'The Board of Control for Cricket in India has decided to suspend IPL 2020 till 15th April 2020, as a precautionary measure against the ongoing Novel Corona Virus (COVID-19) situation,' the BCCI said in a statement. The two-month Twenty20 competition is estimated to generate more than $11billion (£8.7bn) for the Indian economy and involves cricket's top international stars like England's Ben Stokes, Australia's David Warner and India captain Virat Kohli. Chinese mobile-maker Vivo paid $330million (£261m) to be the top sponsor for 2018-2022 for the league. It involves eight franchises playing 60 matches to packed, raucous stadiums of tens of thousands of spectators - plus cheerleaders - all around India.

The steady spread of coronavirus in the country has been attributed by Chakrapani Maharaj to the public eating of chicken by ministers. On February 29, three ministers of the Telangana government had eaten chicken and eggs on a public stage in a bid to dispel fears that the eating of the said food items was leading to the spread of the virus. It was an event organized National Egg Coordination Committee as the poultry industry in the country has seen a major dip in demand. Social media has blamed chicken and eggs for the spread of the disease. Chakrapani Maharaj, who heads a Hindutva outfit called the All India Hindu Mahasabha, said that the ministers’ act of eating chicken and eggs publicly was like an open dare to the force of the virus. “It is after this act that the virus has started to spread rapidly”, said Chakrapani. According to the Centre for Diseases Control and Prevention, this particular strain of the virus, COVID-19 is spread between people who are in close contact with one another (within about 6 feet) and through respiratory droplets produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes. These droplets can land in the mouths or noses of people who are nearby or possibly be inhaled into the lungs. The act of atonement for eating chicken publicly can halt the spread of the virus according to Chakrapani. “The offending ministers should seek forgiveness from the coronavirus and take an oath to protect all living beings or there will be a disaster”, he told THE WEEK. Chakrapani has suggested another way to fight off the virus— by putting a clove in mouth after offering it to God. “A small packet of camphor should also be always carried on one’s body as a preventive measure”, he said. Camphor is known to have some health benefits such as reduction of eczema and easing of joint pains. Clove has curative properties for upset stomachs, hernia, and bad breath among others. The Hindu Mahasabha is also organizing gau mutra (cow urine) parties along the lines of tea parties to save people from the virus. These parties are to be open to all genders and religious faiths. People will be served cow urine, made to take in vapours from the burning of cow dung and served sweets made of cow milk. Chakrapani said, “My team is speaking to in charges of cow protection centres across the country and we hope to involve them in this mission. Unless this is tackled immediately, this will turn into a catastrophe”. Though there is scant scientific evidence of the benefits of cow urine, as a study uploaded on the website of the National Center for Biotechnology Information points out, cow urine has antimicrobial, immunity-boosting and antioxidant properties.

Text Size: A- A+ New Delhi: To ensure the coronavirus doesn’t spread in Delhi, the Hindu Mahasabha has decided to organise a ‘gaumutra party’ on the lines of tea parties, according to its president, Chakrapani Maharaj. The sixth case of coronavirus was confirmed in India Tuesday, and Prime Minister Narendra Modi said he held an extensive review on the country’s preparedness. “Had an extensive review regarding preparedness on the COVID-19 Novel Coronavirus. Different ministries and states are working together, from screening people arriving in India to providing prompt medical attention,” he said in a tweet. On the same day, Maharaj told ThePrint that there is a need to create greater awareness among the people on how gaumutra (cow urine), gobar (cow-dung) and consuming cow products can help eliminate the coronavirus. “Just like we organise tea parties, we have decided to organise a gaumutra party, wherein we will inform people about what is coronavirus and how, by consuming cow-related products, people can be saved from it,” Maharaj, who heads one of the two factions of the Mahasabha, said. “The event will have counters that will provide gaumutra for people to consume. At the same time, we will also put cow products like cow-dung cakes and agarbatti made from that. Upon using these, the virus will die immediately.” The event will be first organised at Hindu Mahasabha Bhawan in Delhi, following which such ‘parties’ will be held across the country. “We are in touch with gaushalas (cow shelters) across the country, who can collaborate and work with us in our mission to eliminate corona,” he added. Also read: In 8 images, a guide on how coronavirus spreads ‘Virus heard animals’ cry for help’ Maharaj added that a big event will be organised in Delhi soon after Holi to raise awareness about the cause of coronavirus, which he claimed was the killing of animals. “We want to create awareness about jeev hatya (killing of beings), which is the main cause of coronavirus. I know people will not believe me, but it would not have spread in India as we are mostly vegetarians,” he said. Maharaj said after Telangana ministers organised a “publicity stunt” of consuming non-vegetarian food publicly, “the virus came to India after listening to the animals cry for help”, he claimed. “Corona Bharat mein yagya anushthan ke kaaran shaant tha. Lekin Telangana ke in naadaan, ahankari mantriyon ne jeev hatya kar jis prakaar se sarvajanik chicken kha kar corona ko lalkaara hai, isse Bharat mein bhi ab corona ke vikraal roop dekhne ki aanshanka ban gayi hai. Atah, in mantriyo ko samay rehte corona se tatkal maafi maang leni chahiye, anyatha anarth hoga, jise koi nahin rok sakta,” he said. Translation: Corona was quiet in India due to traditional practices like yagyas. But Telangana’s ignorant, egotistical ministers killed animals to consume chicken publicly and challenged ‘corona’, because of which the worst form of ‘corona’ is now looming over India. That’s why these ministers should, in the nick of time, apologise to ‘corona’, otherwise there will be a catastrophe that no one can stop. Maharaj added that there was “no need to panic”, and if people start consuming gaumutra and turn vegetarian, the virus would be contained. He had a word of advice for vegetarians too. “Vegetarians need not worry; it will not impact them. But still, as a precautionary measure, they can also start consuming gaumutra.” Also read: Will India’s experience with previous outbreaks help it tackle coronavirus better?

Quando você mata um animal, ele cria um tipo de energia que causa destruição naquele local". Em fevereiro, Chakrapani disse: "Corona não é um vírus, mas um avatar para a proteção de criaturas pobres. Eles passaram a dar a mensagem de morte e punição a quem os come". O COVID-19 foi anteriormente anunciado como uma "" pela (OMS).

As global concern over the coronavirus outbreak has prompted scientists to crack an antidote to contain the spread, a BJP MLA from Assam made a bizarre statement suggesting people to use cow urine and dung to treat the deadly virus. At a time when the coronavirus outbreak has claimed over 3,000 lives globally and a few cases have been detected in India, Suman Haripriya, a BJP MLA of Hajo assembly constituency in Assam, said: "Coronavirus is an airborne disease and it can be cured by using 'gaumutra'(cow urine) and cow dung." Not just this, Suman Haripriya even said a 'hawan' (offering prayers to gods in front of fire), using cow dung, can be performed in China to purify the country's air. China's Wuhan is the epicentre of the coronavirus outbreak. "The rishi munis (saints) had performed hawan by using cow dung and the air of about five-kilometre radius area was purified... Our government can also try to do this," Suman Haripriya said. Suman Haripriya said that saints, in ancient times, made panchamrit by using cow urine, milk and honey which cured all their ailments and they managed to live a thousand years. "Cow urine and cow dung have many medicinal qualities. In ancient times, the saints kept cows in their ashrams and they lived in a thousand years, but how it possible? They had made panchamrit by using cow urine, milk, honey and all their ailments were cured by using it," he said. Suman Haripriya left the Assam Assembly astounded with her comments as discussions on smuggling of cattle to Bangladesh ensued. Listing a few more benefits of cow dung, Suman Haripriya said that cancer can also be cured by using it as a remedy. She said that lost her only brother who was a cancer patient. "Cancer also can cure by using cow urine, cow dung... Coronavirus is an airborne disease and it can also be cured," the BJP MLA said. Suman Haripriya further said: "We can use alternative medicine to cure cancer. In an Ayurvedic hospital in Gujarat, the cow dung is applied to the cancer patients. They are given panchamrit prepared from cow urine and got a lot of success. Many Ayurvedic institutes and Gosala (cow shelter) have used it."

Coronavirus may have wreaked havoc across the world prompting the scientific community to hard-pressed finding an antidote to it, but Hindu Mahasabha sees it as an 'avatar' to punish non-vegetarians. "Corona is not a virus, but avatar for the protection of poor creatures. They have come to give the message of death and punishment to the one who eats them," said Swami Chakrapani, the National President of All India Hindu Mahasabha. Believe it or not, he drew an analogy with Lord Narsingh taking an avatar to kill a demon with that of Chinese being "taught a lesson" of not "torturing animals and turning vegetarian". Bizarre it may sound, but Swami Chakrapani went on to claim that there's a way out of this health epidemic, for the Chinese. According to him, the Chinese president Xi Jinping should "create an idol of Corona and seek forgiveness" and all non-vegetarian Chinese populace "pledge of not harming any innocent creatures in future, then the anger if Corona will come down". In a further embarrassing statement, he added, if Chinese follow his prescription, the "avatar" will "return to its world". The Hindu Mahasabha Chief, however, assured Indians of not being wary of the deadly virus, notwithstanding three people are already detected with the deadly disease in India. According to him, "God worshipping and Gau Raksha believer Indians" are immune to coronavirus. As of Sunday, a total 69,268 confirmed cases of novel coronavirus and 1,670 reported deaths have been reported worldwide. Out of them, 68,500 cases detected and 1666 cases of deaths reported, in China alone. Animal rights advocacy group Peta has connected the virus to certain animals. "Experts theorise that the outbreak might have originated in a market in Wuhan, China, where humans have direct contact with live animals and animal flesh," it had stated. But the epic twist, quite literally, the Hindu Mahasabha gave to that theory, has left many shocked.

28 czerwca sąd dyscyplinarny ukarał Ryszarda Kota, byłego wiceprezesa Sądu Rejonowego w Kraśniku, za uchybienia w sprawie przeciwko Markowi P., który spowodował wypadek śmiertelny będąc pod wpływem alkoholu. Sprawca wypadku został skazany w latach 90. ale w więzieniu umieszczono go dopiero w styczniu 2006 roku. Powodem tak późnego trafienia do jednostki penitencjarnej był zły stan zdrowia skazanego. Skierowaniem Marka P. do zakładu karnego zajmował sie kierowany wówczas przez Kota Wydział Karny Sądu Rejonowego w Kraśniku. Marek P. w kraśnickim sądzie miał wytoczone inne procesy w sprawach karnych z akt których wynikało, że jest zdrowy. "Jest mi przykro z tego powodu, że stawia mi się taki zarzut i jest to zapłata za moją pracę w sądzie, który przez lata był najlepszy w okręgu" – powiedział Ryszard Kot. Sąd dyscyplinarny w związku z brakiem dowodów uznał, że Ryszard Kot nie jest winny wszystkim zarzucanym mu czynom. "Sędzia Kot miał obowiązek zbadania sprawy zawieszonej. Mógł przypuszczać, że było brak przesłanek do zawieszenia postępowania. Nie będzie mógł awansować ani zasiadać w samorządzie sędziowskim " – powiedział przewodniczący składu orzekającego, Bohdan Tracz. Sędziego ukarano usunięciem ze stanowiska (którego już nie pełni) jednak wyrok nie jest prawomocny.

Ajax reunion as Nürnberg face Everton - Steven Pienaar (right) in action against Larissa (©Getty Images) Three former AFC Ajax team-mates could meet again on the pitch as 1. FC Nürnberg kick off their Group A campaign at home against Everton FC. • Nürnberg are playing their first group stage game of the season while Everton won their opener against Larissa FC 3-1 on Matchday 1. • The two sides have never faced off in UEFA club competition. • They did meet in the first round of the 1965/66 Inter-Cities Fairs Cup, the predecessor of the UEFA Cup. Everton earned a 1-1 draw in the first leg in West Germany and then prevailed 1-0 at home to progress. • Nürnberg have never encountered English opponents in UEFA competition. • Everton have played four UEFA competition matches against German teams. • They drew 1-1 home and away against VfL Borussia Mönchengladbach in the 1970/71 European Champion Clubs' Cup second round, winning the tie on penalties. It was that tournament's first-ever shoot-out. • They tackled FC Bayern München in the 1984/85 UEFA Cup Winners' Cup semi-finals, drawing 0-0 in Munich and triumphing 3-1 at home to advance to the final, where they beat SK Rapid Wien 3-1 in Rotterdam. • Thus they have never lost against a Bundesliga side and have drawn both of their previous ties on German soil. • Nürnberg's Tunisia midfielder Jawhar Mnari celebrates his 31st birthday on the day of the match. • There will be an Australian accent to proceedings, with Everton's Sydney-born Tim Cahill lining up against compatriots Michael Beauchamp, Matthew Spiranovic, Dario Vidosic and Joshua Kennedy. • Everton reserve goalkeeper Stefan Wessels played alongside Nürnberg's Bosnia-Herzegovnian international forward, Zvjezdan Misimović, in the FC Bayern München senior and reserve teams between 2000 and 2003. • Everton's South Africa midfielder Steven Pienaar – on loan from BV Borussia Dortmund – was a colleague of Nürnberg's Greece striker Angelos Charisteas and Czech Republic midfielder Tomáš Galásek at Ajax. • Nürnberg have not won a European home game since overcoming Club Atlético de Madrid 2-1 in the 1962/63 UEFA Cup Winners' Cup semi-finals. They have played only three European home matches since, drawing two and losing one. • Larissa are at home to FC Zenit St. Petersburg in the day's other Group A tie. ©uefa.com 1998-2007.

Everton defeated Nürnberg 2-0 to move top of Group A in the 2007-08 UEFA Cup. The first chance for the visiting team came just over 20 seconds into the match when Mikel Arteta saw his shot saved by Nürnberg goalkeeper Jaromír Blažek, before Tim Cahill's followup shot was tipped onto the goalposts. Nürnberg had chances from Peer Kluge and Dominik Reinhardt, but Kluge's attempt went just wide of the posts while Tim Howard saved Reinhardt's shot. Everton opened the scoring late in the match when Berti Gláuber brought down Victor Anichebe, giving the visitors a penalty which Arteta converted. Five minutes later Anichebe scored to extend Everton's lead. In the other Group A match of the evening, Zenit Saint Petersburg defeated Larissa 3-2. Everton lead Group A with two wins from two matches and look likely to qualify for the knockout stage. Saint Petersburg are second with four points while Dutch side AZ Alkmaar have one point with a game in hand. Nürnberg, defeated in their only match so far, are fourth in the group and Larissa are bottom with two defeats from two matches.

By Jonathan Stevenson Everton's Anichebe (left) receives praise from fellow striker Yakubu Anichebe was wrestled to the ground with seven minutes left for Mikel Arteta to score from the spot, before the striker ran through to slot home. The Toffees nearly took the lead after 24 seconds, denied when Jaromir Blazek saved from Arteta and Tim Cahill. Nuremberg created chances of their own but Peer Kluge rifled wide and Dominik Reinhardt was denied by Tim Howard. It was a tough way to finish on the German side after an even contest, but means Everton are now almost certain to progress to the next round. They had to wait so long for their goals but they so nearly went ahead from the game's first attack, Arteta's fierce drive parried away by Blazek into the path of Cahill, the Australian's shot deflected onto a post by Blazek's legs. 606: DEBATE The Toffees were almost left to rue not taking their early opportunity when Joleon Lescott crazily gave the ball away to Ivan Saenko, the striker racing through only to be denied by the advancing Howard. It was turning into an open and exciting encounter with both sides pressing hard for an opener and play switching from end-to-end. Leon Osman found space down the right but his cross just evaded the onrushing Cahill, before Kluge rifled a shot inches wide of Howard's right-hand post as the visitors countered. Everton almost gifted Nuremberg a goal again when Steven Pienaar dummied the ball straight to Reinhardt, but the midfielder's shot was parried away to safety by Howard at full stretch. Just before the break Everton were presented with a golden chance when Blazek weakly punched a corner half-clear, but Yakubu swung and missed from four yards before Blazek pounced on the Nigerian's weak follow-up shot. Leon Osman (right) and Tomas Galasek tussle for possession Proceedings did not slow down after the break either, as both teams went gung-ho for an opener. Everton's defence had looked uncharacteristically nervy all evening and they backed off once again, allowing Marek Mintal to smash in a left-foot shot that Howard again did well to block. At the other end the classy Arteta drilled in a shot from the right that swerved awkwardly in front of Blazek and produced a fumble from the keeper, though no visiting players were on hand to take advantage. But the game turned in the 75th minute, when the tiring Yakubu was replaced by the fresh legs of Anichebe. And how those fresh legs made the difference. The young hitman powered his way into the box and was unceremoniously dumped to the ground by Leandro Glauber, with Arteta coolly dispatching the penalty. Moments later Anichebe picked the ball up wide on the right, surged into the area and expertly tucked the ball past the advancing Blazek from a tight angle. Boss David Moyes will rarely have made a change that made a bigger impact. "He has been struggling with a broken hand and I wasn't sure whether to put him on, just shows what I know! "Overall I thought it was a good performance, we did well enough. They had one or two chances early on as we did, but they are a good side too." Nuremberg: Blazek, Schmidt (Kennedy 76), Glauber (Benko 86), Wolf, Reinhardt, Galasek, Kluge, Mnari, Mintal, Misimovic, Saenko (Pagenburg 85). Subs Not Used: Klewer, Beauchamp, Kristiansen, Engelhardt. Booked: Blazek, Glauber.

Everton defeated Nürnberg 2-0 to move top of Group A in the 2007-08 UEFA Cup. The first chance for the visiting team came just over 20 seconds into the match when Mikel Arteta saw his shot saved by Nürnberg goalkeeper Jaromír Blažek, before Tim Cahill's followup shot was tipped onto the goalposts. Nürnberg had chances from Peer Kluge and Dominik Reinhardt, but Kluge's attempt went just wide of the posts while Tim Howard saved Reinhardt's shot. Everton opened the scoring late in the match when Berti Gláuber brought down Victor Anichebe, giving the visitors a penalty which Arteta converted. Five minutes later Anichebe scored to extend Everton's lead. In the other Group A match of the evening, Zenit Saint Petersburg defeated Larissa 3-2. Everton lead Group A with two wins from two matches and look likely to qualify for the knockout stage. Saint Petersburg are second with four points while Dutch side AZ Alkmaar have one point with a game in hand. Nürnberg, defeated in their only match so far, are fourth in the group and Larissa are bottom with two defeats from two matches.

«Un président normal peut connaitre aussi un jour sans pluie.» Cette formule de François Hollande, lancée l'an dernier lors de son premier 14 Juillet en tant que président, vaut pour cette année. C'est sous un soleil radieux que le chef de l'Etat, habitué des cérémonies sous le déluge depuis son élection en mai 2012, a présidé ce dimanche le défilé militaire.Une tradition républicaine qu'a tenté de perturber des opposants au mariage gay.Ouvert par les troupes maliennes, le défilé a débuté peu après 10 heures sur l'avenue des Champs-Elysées. Hollande a pris place à bord d'un véhicule de commandement pour passer en revue les troupes depuis l'Arc de Triomphe avant de descendre les Champs, escorté par les cavaliers de la Garde républicaine. Huées et sifflets se sont élevés dans la foule à son passage, provenant d'opposants au mariage gay. Au niveau du Grand Palais et de l'avenue Franklin-Roosevelt, un homme a suivi à leur demande les policiers, sans opposer de résistance, selon l'AFP.Avant le défilé, entre 9 heures et 10 heures, au niveau du Grand Palais, une quinzaine d'entre eux arborant des drapeaux ou des bracelets roses de la Manif pour tous avaient été interpellés pour des contrôles d'identité, a constaté une journaliste de l'AFP. Le mouvement avait pourtant précisé dans la semaine qu'il n'appelait à aucune action «par respect pour l'armée française». Mais les plus résolus des opposants s'étaient donné rendez-vous sur Twitter.Six personnes placées derrière une barrière ont ainsi déployé une banderole sur laquelle étaient dessinés un homme, une femme et des enfants se tenant la main, imitant le logo de la Manif pour Tous, ont rapporté plusieurs témoins. Le Printemps français, nébuleuse radicalement opposée au mariage homosexuel , a accroché une banderole à une flopée de ballons noirs. Ce lâcher a eu lieu alors que les parachutistes entamaient leur descente vers la Concorde.Interrogée sur ces actions par BFM-TV, Christiane Taubira, qui a porté la loi entrée en vigueur il y a plus de deux mois, a dénoncé «un incivisme qui se complaît sur lui-même, qui se vautre dans la satisfaction de sa propre contemplation, qui s'enlise dans une protestation dont peut-être lui seul connaît l'issue». La ministre de la Justice dit savoir «qu'il y a un esprit civique extrêmement élevé en France et j'ai toujours vu les protestations s'éteindre à partir du moment où une loi est devenue une loi de la République». «Manifestement tout le monde n'accepte pas les valeurs de la République, manifestement tout le monde n'accepte pas la discipline d'un Etat de droit» mais «l'Etat de droit est plus fort», a conclu Christiane Taubira.Une soixantaine de soldats maliens ont défilé aux côtés de militaires français dont les unités ont été engagées au Mali. Un détachement de la Minusma, la force de l'ONU à forte composante africaine qui a pris ses fonctions début juillet au Mali, défile également. Et pour la première fois, une centaine de jeunes en service civique, créé en 2010, ont descendu les Champs. Le défilé a rassemblé 4 800 hommes et femmes, 265 véhicules, 58 avions et 35 hélicoptères.

Afin de limiter "le phénomène d'exode" en milieu rural et la propagation du virus. Le ministre des Transports Jean-Baptiste Djebbari a annoncé mardi que le gouvernement allait encore réduire la fréquence des trains en France pour limiter la propagation du virus, alors que de nombreuses personnes quittent les grandes villes pour aller à la campagne. «Nous allons réduire la cadence et la fréquence des trains, notamment longue distance, pour éviter par ces phénomènes d'exode que le virus circule davantage sur le territoire. Nous appelons chacun à la responsabilité», a déclaré le ministre sur la chaîne de télévision LCI. Il a souligné qu'il y avait «évidemment une tolérance donnée aux Français qui veulent se positionner par exemple dans leur résidence secondaire quand ils en ont une». Le secrétaire d'Etat a estimé que 50% des trains circulaient cette semaine, par rapport à la normale, après les mesures de réduction déjà prises en fin de semaine dernière. Il a indiqué prévoir «entre 30 et 40% la semaine prochaine» par rapport au service normal de la SNCF. «Nous allons beaucoup réduire l'offre sur les longues distances (...) et donc sur les TGV et Intercités.» Pour les TER, «nous garderons une offre pour l'instant évaluée à 35% à 40%. Nous pilotons les besoins au jour le jour. Nous ne voulons surtout pas sous-dimensionner l'offre parce que nous voulons que les trajets qui vont se faire dans les jours prochains se fassent dans de bonnes conditions», a précisé Jean-Baptiste Djebbari. Il a souligné que l'offre de transports urbains serait également diminuée: «Aujourd'hui, il y a 70% de bus et de métros qui roulent. Et nous allons réduire très progressivement dans les jours qui viennent, en lien avec les opérateurs des transports.» » À VOIR AUSSI - «Le mot d'ordre est clair: restez chez vous», précise Castaner après les annonces d'Emmanuel Macron

Le réseau ferré de la RATP a subi une baisse supérieure à 90%. Déjà hier, le 17 mars, premier jour de confinement, la fréquentation de la RATP avait baissé de 80%, la régie ayant anticipé l'absence de voyageur en ne faisant que rouler que 60% des RER A et 70% des bus et des métros.

La régie francilienne prévient que son offre de transports va être «adaptée», durant le confinement. La moitié des métros seulement circuleront demain. Sur le réseau métro, 50% des trains seulement circuleront, et 60% aux heures de pointe. Comme prévu, les transports en commun vont devenir de plus en plus rares dans les prochains jours, à mesure que le confinement se mettra en place. En Île-de-France, la situation va s'accélérer, a annoncé mardi soir la RATP. Voici le détail des prévisions de transport dans la région capitale pour mercredi. 50% des RER A et RER B devraient circuler demain. Sur le RER B, le service s'arrêtera à 23h «pour cause de travaux SNCF». C'est moins que mardi, où 60% des RER A fonctionnaient. Sur le réseau métro, 50% des trains seulement circuleront, et 60% aux heures de pointe. Le trafic est réduit sur la quasi-totalité des lignes (2, 3, 3bis, 4, 5, 6, 7, 7bis, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 et 14). En outre, le funiculaire de Montmartre est fermé. Concernant le réseau de surface, 70% de l'offre devrait être assurée en moyenne pour les bus et trams. Cette proportion devrait toutefois décroître dans les prochains jours, avertit l'entreprise. En revanche, très prisé des personnels de santé, le Noctilien poursuivra son activité. La baisse devrait se poursuivre au cours du confinement En outre, sur Twitter, la régie francilienne annonce que «la vente des tickets à bord» des bus va être suspendue, afin de protéger les conducteurs des véhicules. À la place, «la vente par SMS va être proposée» : pour cela, les clients doivent envoyer «un SMS à un numéro de téléphone court et sont prélevés directement de 2€ sur la facture de téléphone». Un moyen de payer sans contact, donc. La RATP avait prévu de baisser son offre de transport, ces derniers jours, afin de faire face au confinement. Le groupe a constaté une forte baisse de fréquentation sur ses lignes, de l'ordre de «80%» ce mardi par rapport à un jour normal, et il a prévu de concentrer la majeure partie de ses efforts sur le bon fonctionnement des axes dits «structurants» pour le bon fonctionnement de la région francilienne. L'affaiblissement progressif du réseau devrait se poursuivre au cours des prochains jours. En parallèle, la SNCF va elle aussi limiter son offre, a prévenu ce mardi le secrétaire d'État aux Transports, Jean-Baptiste Djebbari : «Nous allons réduire la cadence et la fréquence des trains, notamment longue distance, pour éviter par ces phénomènes d'exode que le virus circule davantage sur le territoire. Nous appelons chacun à la responsabilité», a-t-il déclaré ce mardi matin.

Newsy Nepal - homo śluby na Mount Everest! Źródło: pinknews.co.uk 2010-01-23, 0:00 / R Źródło: pinknews.co.uk2010-01-23, 0:00 / R W nadchodzących miesiącach Nepal zalegalizuje małżeństwa homoseksualne. Nepalczycy chcą promować swój kraj jako azjatycką stolicę turystyki gejowskiej. W lutym odbędzie się konferencja, której uczestniczy zastanowią się, jak wypromować Nepal jako cel wycieczek par homoseksualnych. Jedyny niekryjący się ze swoim homoseksualizmem poseł parlamentu nepalskiego, Sunil Babu Pant, założył biuro turystyczne Pink Moutain. Już niedługo będzie ono organizowało ceremonie ślubne na najwyższej górze świata - Mount Everest. Sunil Babu Pant wierzy, że wypromowanie Nepalu jako centrum turystyki gejowskiej przyczyniłoby się do znacznej poprawy sytuacji gospodarczej kraju. Byłoby to zbawienne dla nepalskiej gospodarki mocno osłabionej po latach wojny. Dzięki nowej grupie docelowej rząd chce zwiększyć liczbę turystów odwiedzających Nepal z 400 tys. do miliona w ciągu roku. Jeszcze niedawno nepalscy geje i lesbijki cierpieli z powodu prześladowań. Do 2007 r. homoseksualizm był w Nepalu karlny. W ostatnich latach zaszły tam jednak głębokie zmiany na rzecz praw osób homoseksualnych.

Manvendra Singh Gohil ... will marry in Kathmandu. KATHMANDU: Nepal will play host to a royal wedding with a difference when an openly gay Indian prince marries his partner at a Hindu temple in Kathmandu. The ceremony is the start of what a Nepalese politician, Sunil Babu Pant, hopes will become a lucrative business for his country, whose tourist industry is still reeling from the effects of a decade-long civil war that ended in 2006. Mr Pant, the first openly gay MP in Nepal, has set up a travel agency catering for gay tourists, who he says face severe discrimination in many Asian countries. ''The choices [for gay tourists] in this region are very limited, and there is really no competition from China or India,'' said Mr Pant, who was selected in May 2008 to represent a small communist party in parliament. He had been overwhelmed with inquiries since setting up his travel agency, Pink Mountain, he said. The company will offer tours of Nepal's tourist sites - including Hindu temples that feature carvings of the god Shiva depicted as half man, half woman - and organise wedding ceremonies. Mr Pant's plans have gained the support of the Tourism Ministry in Nepal, a conservative, mainly Hindu country that nonetheless has some of the most progressive policies on homosexuality in Asia. Two years ago the Supreme Court ordered the Government to enact laws to guarantee the rights of gays and lesbians after the Blue Diamond Society, a pressure group Mr Pant runs, filed a petition. The country's new constitution, being drafted by MPs, is expected to define marriage as a union between two adult individuals, regardless of sex, and to outlaw discrimination based on sexual orientation. Laxman Bhattarai, joint secretary in the Tourism Ministry, said the Government had no specific policies on gay tourism, but would support Mr Pant's enterprise. Although only about 500,000 foreign tourists travelled to Nepal last year, the Government has set itself a target of attracting a million tourists next year. ''Nepal is a safe place to come now,'' Mr Bhattarai said. ''We want to develop new tourist destinations and get people coming back after the civil war. If he can help us in any way, we are happy.'' The wedding of Manvendra Singh Gohil, scion of the family that once ruled Rajpipla in the western Indian state of Gujarat, looks likely to create the kind of publicity Nepal's tourism business needs. Mr Pant believes it will be followed by many more such ceremonies. He is already organising a wedding for a lesbian couple from Massachusetts who want to marry in Mustang, high in the Himalayas.

Nepal is set to legalise gay marriage later this year and will celebrate the change by promoting the country as the gay tourism capital of Asia. Last year, the Supreme Court approved same-sex marriage and the government is expected to begin drafting a law allowing in in the coming months. Next month, a conference will be held to discuss how the country can attract more gay couples. The country's only out gay MP Sunil Babu Pant, has launched a travel company called Pink Mountain which will offer wedding ceremonies at the base of Everest and processions on elephant-back. He believes Nepal's economy could see a substantial boost if the country can attract ten per cent of global gay tourism. Pant, a hero to many gay activists worldwide, told the Daily Telegraph: "Most Asian countries don't welcome gay visitors, so we can have the maximum benefit for the Nepal economy which is fragile after years of war. He added that the government had a target of increasing the number of tourists from 400,000 to one million in the coming year. Nepal was once strongly conservative and gays in the Himalayan kingdom previously suffered persistent persecution from security forces during the absolutist rule of King Gyanendra. The harassment of lesbian, gay and trans people continued at the hands of Maoist rebels. Until 2007, homosexuality was illegal in the country but the past few years have seen profound changes for gay rights.

The US has announced it is forming a "core coalition" to battle Islamic State (Isis) in Iraq, and has given the new bloc two weeks to finalise plans to help the Baghdad authorities and the Kurds in the north intensify the fight against the militants. Speaking at the Nato summit in Wales, the US secretary of state, John Kerry, said on Friday that the 10-nation coalition would concentrate on shoring up those in Iraq who were fighting against Isis, but said intervention would not extend to western powers sending in troops. "We need to attack them in ways that prevent them from taking over territory, to bolster the Iraqi security forces and others in the region who are prepared to take them on, without committing troops of our own," Kerry told a meeting of the 10 nations that will form the coalition. "Obviously I think that's a red line for everybody here: no boots on the ground." He said the grouping should come up with firm plans by the time the UN general assembly meets for its annual session later this month. The 10 nations are the US, Britain, France, Germany, Canada, Australia, Turkey, Italy, Poland and Denmark. Significantly, the group does not include any Arab nation and only one of Iraq's six neighbours. The US has launched more than 100 air strikes on Isis positions in northern Iraq in the past month to try to check the progress of the militants, who have seized a vast swath of Syria and Iraq in the past few months. But Pentagon officials have said that this military engagement will only contain the Isis advance, not defeat them, and that a broader strategy and alliance is needed. The decision was made at a joint meeting of defence and foreign office ministers chaired by Kerry and his British counterpart, Philip Hammond. British sources stressed that no request was made by the US at the meeting for the UK or Nato to carry out air strikes. But the agreement of the 10 to attend the meeting under a Nato umbrella is considered a sign that a strong military component is being planned in the campaign against Isis. "The meeting was Nato countries coming together to see, particularly on the diplomatic and political front, how we put together the best support for the countries in the region," a spokesman for David Cameron said. "It is a politically led strategy and no commitment to military action has been taken." He stressed that the next stage of Nato support to Iraq – helping to train the Iraqi armed forces or to supply arms – was dependent on an effective, permanent, inclusive government in Baghdad. The British government also emphasised that the next political stage would be the meeting of the UN general assembly, due to be attended by world leaders including Cameron. It is likely the core coalition will put together a UN resolution endorsing military and political support for the Iraqi forces trying to oust Isis. It remains unclear whether there will be any mention of Syria at this stage, an issue that is likely to cause difficulty for Russia, a permanent member of the UN security council. Cameron was due to discuss the issue with the Turkish prime minister, Ahmet Davutoğlu, on Friday afternoon and has already made a commitment to a training mission to help Jordan. The Australian foreign minister, Julie Bishop, said her country was prepared to join in future air strikes. She said: "The countries that have expressed a willingness to tackle Isil head-on have also looked at what more can be done in terms of air strikes and Australia will respond when a formal request is made. "The red line is combat troops on the ground. There is no interest from any country present to commit combat troops," she said.

Leaders from NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organisation) member states met in Wales over Thursday to Friday in a summit addressing the organisation's role in Afghanistan and new threats from Russia and the Islamic State. NATO member countries __NOTOC__ === Role in Afghanistan === Since the 2010 NATO summit in , countries involved in the (ISAF), NATO's military operation in Afghanistan, have been committed to full transition of security responsibilities to Afghan forces by the end of 2014. This would mark the end of ISAF's 13 year mission in Afghanistan, with troops changing to a training and assistance role. Plans had originally intended for Afghanistan's new President, or President-elect, to attend this year's summit, but due to the political situation and ongoing election process it is still unknown who will replace outgoing President . Bismullah Khan Muhammadi, the country's defence minister, instead attended the summit in the absence of a President. This political stalemate has put at risk NATO plans for a continuing military presence in the country, with troops expected to pull out at the end of the year without new security agreements being signed, signature not possible without a new President in place. NATO members have urged Afghanistan's presidential candidates to reach an agreement, with officials indicating that if no agreement can be reached by the end of the month, then troops would begin to leave. === Threat from Russia=== On Thursday, NATO leaders pledged support for at a meeting with the country's President, , in the face of recent moves from Russia. On their website, NATO outlined four areas where the alliance would provide support for Ukraine, "rehabilitation for injured troops, cyber defence, logistics, and command and control and communications", with assistance expected to have a monetary value of about 15 million (about 19 million). On Friday, peace talks in , resulted in a ceasefire agreement between Ukraine and rebel forces, whom NATO has accused Russia of supporting in their bid for separation of eastern regions of Ukraine. The said sanctions being prepared are likely to go ahead, regardless of the outcome of these talks, until it is seen that Russia is acting upon them. === Threat from Islamic State === On Friday morning, a meeting of ten countries chaired by the UK and agreed to jointly working to combat the threat posed by the Islamic State in the . , US Secretary of State, stated after the meeting that the group should aim to make firm plans and raise support from within the region affected before the annual meeting later this month. , UK Foreign Secretary, also said it was clear that regional support was needed, adding "with a new and inclusive Government of Iraq leading the efforts".

The Foreign Secretary welcomed powerful international commitment to support the Iraqi government, help Iraqi and Kurdish forces defend themselves against ISIL and deal with the humanitarian consequences of ISIL’s barbarity. Speaking from the NATO summit in Wales, the Foreign Secretary said: ISIL is not an invincible military force. At every level, military and ideological, we have to challenge their messaging and challenge their capability. It’s going to be a long campaign; not necessarily a military one, but a campaign to turn the tide, to cut off the funding, to undermine the recruiting, to cut off the support that they’re receiving from some of the countries around the world and to push ISIL back. We in Britain have made no commitment to take part in any air strikes as yet, but we’ll certainly consider that possibility if we think that it is the best and most effective way to support a credible and inclusive Iraqi government. This morning (Friday 5 September), Foreign and Defence Ministers from ten countries met to agree an international strategy to counter the threat from ISIL and address the harm it has done to communities in Iraq and Syria. The meeting was jointly convened by the UK and the United States, and led by Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond and US Secretary of State John Kerry. Speaking after the meeting, the Foreign Secretary said: The clear message coming out of here is that we have to have a comprehensive response to the ISIL challenge. It’s not just about whether or not we should get involved in air strikes. Everyone has a role to play and we should look at all elements, though it is clear we need regional support with a new and inclusive Government of Iraq leading the efforts. Further information The countries in attendance at this morning’s joint UK/US chaired meeting were Canada, Australia, Turkey, France, Germany, Italy, Denmark and Poland.

Ukraine crisis: Hopes rise for peace deal in the east Fighting in the east of Ukraine has shown no sign of abating despite hopes for a peace deal Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko has expressed careful optimism that a deal could be struck with Russia to end fighting in the east of his country. The BBC's Bridget Kendall says that there could be a breakthrough when talks including Ukraine, Russia and pro-Russia rebels start in Belarus. Western countries meanwhile are preparing to tighten sanctions on Russia over its actions in Ukraine. They are attending the second day of a Nato summit in Newport. The West accuses Russia of sending arms and troops to back the rebels in eastern Ukraine. Moscow denies this. Nato leaders are watching closely the outcome of the talks in Belarus between the Russian and Ukrainian presidents amid the splendour of their summit in Wales Pro-Russian rebels are widely reported to be forcing the Ukrainian army into retreat in parts of the east Also on the itinerary on the second day of the summit in Wales is the rise of Islamic State (IS), and Afghanistan where the alliance is due to end its combat operation at the end of this this year. But there is no government in place in Kabul to complete the handover because the outcome of presidential elections earlier this year is still being contested. Taliban militants launched a deadly attack on a government compound on Thursday. Please turn on JavaScript. Media requires JavaScript to play. An IS video released on Tuesday showed the killing of US journalist Steven Sotloff, just days after the group beheaded another American reporter, James Foley. In the latest video, an IS militant is seen threatening to kill a UK hostage, aid worker David Haines, who was seized in March 2013 in Syria's Idlib province. Nato Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen had pledged "seriously" to examine any plea by Iraq to fight IS militants, while UK Prime Minister David Cameron said that his country was deciding whether to arm the Kurds. 'The highest price' Our correspondent says there is a lot at stake at the Nato summit, where President Poroshenko on Thursday confirmed that there was a chance that a deal could be signed in Minsk later on Friday, leading to a ceasefire within hours. Please turn on JavaScript. Media requires JavaScript to play. Russian President Vladimir Putin has also expressed hope that a deal can be agreed. But President Poroshenko was careful not to sound too upbeat. "Ukraine is paying the highest price," the president said, "including lives of soldiers and innocent civilians. As president of Ukraine I must do my best to stop it." Mr Rasmussen also sounded a note of caution. He warned that previous peace offerings from President Putin had turned out to be smokescreens, and it was not certain he would stop destabilising Ukraine. "Based on experience we have to be cautious," he said. "But... if we are witnessing a genuine effort to find a political solution, I would welcome it." Rebel leaders were quoted as saying they would order a ceasefire at 11:00 GMT on Friday if the peace plan was agreed. On Wednesday, Mr Putin announced a seven-point plan, including a halt to "active offensive operations" by the Ukrainian military and pro-Russia rebels, international ceasefire monitoring, unconditional prisoner exchanges and humanitarian aid corridors. The summit on Thursday called for Russia to end its annexation of Crimea Ukrainian government forces are manning checkpoints in Mariupol - as rebel shelling was heard in surrounding areas The fighting on the ground in eastern Ukraine however is not abating, especially in areas were Ukrainian forces are under fire from pro-Russian rebels and are being beaten back. If a peace deal fails to materialise, our correspondent says, the EU and the US have let it be known that they are poised to announce tough new sanctions against Russia instead. But they have been careful to make clear that further sanctions may be delayed depending on the outcome of the negotiations in Minsk. They will be implemented only if there is no breakthrough and no sign of an end to the recent escalation of Russian military support to rebels in eastern Ukraine. Nato leaders on Thursday agreed new financing to aid Ukraine's military and provide better medical treatment for wounded soldiers in the five-month conflict, which has led to the deaths of more than 2,600 people. A UK government official said the EU would announce - jointly with the US - tougher punitive measures including more restrictions on Russian banking, energy and defence. More of what an official dubbed "Putin cronies" would have travel bans imposed on them. "We will keep the pressure on Putin to force him to the negotiating table and off the battlefield," the official said. Mariupol threatened Ukrainian government forces have recently suffered several losses of territory, after rebels launched offensives in both the Luhansk and Donetsk regions, and further south around the city of Mariupol on the Azov Sea. Please turn on JavaScript. Media requires JavaScript to play. Reports are emerging that the separatists have begun shelling the outer defences of Mariupol. Eyewitnesses spoke of gunfire. The BBC's Fergus Keane on Mariupol says that explosions could be heard close to the city on Thursday night as rebels push towards it from the recently taken town of Novoazovsk. Our correspondent says that the situation is confused and the atmosphere volatile.

Ukraine ceasefire deal 'signed' The Ukrainian government and pro-Russia rebels meeting in Minsk have signed a preliminary protocol to start a ceasefire, Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko says. He said that the ceasefire would start at 14:00 GMT. The announcement came after reports of further clashes. Western countries are meanwhile working on further sanctions against Russia. The West accuses Russia of sending arms and troops to back the rebels in eastern Ukraine. Moscow denies this. The talks in Minsk, capital of Belarus, involve former Ukrainian President Leonid Kuchma, Russian ambassador to Ukraine Mikhail Zurabov and leaders of the self-proclaimed "people's republics" in Donetsk and Luhansk. They come after Russian President Vladimir Putin put forward a seven-point peace plan. The plan includes a halt to "active offensive operations" by the Ukrainian military and pro-Russia rebels, international ceasefire monitoring, unconditional prisoner exchanges and humanitarian aid corridors.

NATO leaders at the Wales Summit on Thursday (4 September 2014) pledged to provide strong support to help Ukraine improve its own security at a meeting with Ukraine President Poroshenko. “Our support is concrete and tangible,” said NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen. “We highly value Ukraine’s contributions to our operations and the NATO Response Force. Ukraine has stood by NATO. Now in these difficult times, NATO stands by Ukraine.” The Secretary General said that Allies have established “a comprehensive and tailored package of measures” to help Ukraine. The focus of NATO support will be on four areas; rehabilitation for injured troops, cyber defence, logistics, and command and control and communications. NATO’s assistance to Ukraine to boost cooperation will amount to around 15 million euros. Thursday’s NATO-Ukraine Commission strongly condemned Russia’s violations of international law. “Russia must stop its aggressive actions against Ukraine, withdraw its thousands of troops from Ukraine and the border regions, and stop supporting the separatists in Ukraine,” said the Secretary General. He also called on Russia to reverse its illegal and illegitimate self-declared “annexation” of Crimea, which Allies do not recognise. Mr. Fogh Rasmussen added that an independent, sovereign and stable Ukraine, firmly committed to democracy and the rule of law “is key to Euro-Atlantic security.”

The White House Office of the Press Secretary FACT SHEET: Wales Summit – NATO’s Changing Role in Afghanistan NATO’s mission in Afghanistan has been the Alliance’s largest and one of its longest-running military operations, with 50 coalition countries contributing a peak of 140,000 troops over a 13-year campaign. The United States, together with NATO Allies and partners, support a sovereign, stable, unified, and democratic Afghanistan and will continue our partnership with Afghanistan based on the principles of mutual respect and mutual accountability. Moreover, we believe that an Afghan-led peace and reconciliation process is the surest way to end violence and ensure lasting stability for Afghanistan and the region. International Security Assistance Force (ISAF). Since 2001, ISAF has assisted Afghan authorities in maintaining security and developing the Afghan National Security Forces (ANSF), per a United Nations mandate and at the request of the Afghan government. The ISAF mission is part of the overall international effort to enable the Government of Afghanistan to exercise its authority throughout the country by providing security and stability to the Afghan people. NATO assumed command of the ISAF mission in August 2003. At the Lisbon Summit in 2010, Afghanistan and ISAF nations, including the United States, committed to transition full responsibility for security to the Afghan Government by the end of 2014. Afghanistan and ISAF nations reaffirmed that commitment in 2012 at the Chicago Summit and took a step further announcing a mid-2013 milestone after which the ANSF would be in the lead for security nationwide and the ISAF role would transition from combat to support. Since June 2013, the ANSF has been in the lead, with modest coalition support, and has exceeded most expectations. Today, ISAF forces focus primarily on training, advising, and assisting their Afghan counterparts. At the end of 2014, the ANSF will assume full responsibility for security and the ISAF mission will end. Resolute Support. At the Wales Summit, NATO Allies and partners reaffirmed their intent to conduct a non-combat train, advise, and assist mission in Afghanistan beyond 2014, known as Resolute Support, contingent upon the Afghans signing a Bilateral Security Agreement (BSA) and a status of forces agreement (SOFA) with NATO. This new advisory mission would be at the security ministry and national institutional level, with advising to the ANSF at the corps level and advising to Afghan special operations forces at the tactical level. This non-combat mission would be centered in the Kabul-Bagram area, with a regional presence in the north, west, south, and east. It would initially include approximately 12,000 troops. Four Allied nations have agreed to serve as “framework nations” – Turkey will lead in the capital; Germany will lead in the north; Italy will lead in the west; and the United States will lead in the south and east. NATO is prepared to commence this mission at the beginning of 2015. For the United States’ part, President Obama announced on May 27, 2014 that the U.S. combat mission in Afghanistan will end by the end of this year and, contingent upon a signed BSA and NATO SOFA, the United States would be prepared to continue “two narrow missions” in Afghanistan after 2014: “training Afghan forces and supporting counterterrorism operations against the remnants of al-Qa’ida.” At the beginning of 2015, we anticipate 9,800 U.S. troops in Afghanistan with the majority participating in the NATO-led Resolute Support mission. By the end of 2015, we would reduce that presence by roughly half, consolidating our troops in Kabul and Bagram Airfield. By the end of 2016, our military presence would shift to a strong security assistance mission based from our embassy. This presence would serve as the basis for sustained security cooperation with the Afghan government and continued coordination with Allies’ and partners’ efforts to advise and assist the Afghan security ministries and to continue to develop ANSF capabilities. Financial Sustainment of the ANSF. At the Wales Summit, NATO Allies and partners renewed their commitment to contribute significantly to the financial sustainment of the ANSF through the end of 2017 and to financially sustain the ANSF throughout the decade of transformation. The international community has pledged nearly €1 billion annually to sustain the ANSF for 2015 through the end of 2017. The United States has requested up to $4.1 billion in our 2015 budget, which would help sustain the ANSF surge end strength of 352,000 through 2015. The United States expects that Afghanistan will assume an increasing portion of ANSF sustainment costs beginning with $500 million in 2015, as agreed at the Chicago Summit. To ensure that donors can confidently commit their financial support to the ANSF over the long term, NATO Allies and partners welcomed the development of effective funding mechanisms including the strengthening of the Afghan National Army Trust Fund and the establishment of the Oversight and Coordination Body. And finally, NATO Allies and partners look forward to working with Afghanistan to review planning for a sufficient and sustainable ANSF beyond 2015. NATO-Afghanistan Enduring Partnership. At the Wales Summit, NATO nations reaffirmed their commitment to strengthen its enduring partnership with Afghanistan, which would serve as the foundation for longer term security cooperation between NATO and Afghanistan.

What's new on Gmail? Updated July 14, 2004 You asked. We said they were coming. And now, they're here: Import Contacts You've made a list. You've checked it twice. Now you never have to check it again. Move all your contacts from Yahoo! Mail, Outlook, and others to Gmail in just a few clicks. Then simply rely on our auto-complete feature to fill in your addresses as you're typing. Keep all your contacts in one place and keep in touch with all of them using Gmail. Signature options From the settings page, create a signature that's automatically added to the end of all your outgoing messages. Change it as often as you like, but always get the last word. Safari browser support Everybody's gone surfin'… now Mac OS X's Safari is surfing Gmail as well (versions 1.2.1 and newer).

Since Gmail upgraded everyone's account to over 2GB each I want to know what our readers are thinking of doing with all the extra space. I've had my account for a couple of months and I've only managed to get 1MB of e-mails. What good news lists do you suggest? Besides mailing lists, I guess I'll just start using Gmail more with Gmail Drive and keep a small library of my favorite files ready to send to whoever needs it. Email Entry #2 | Julian (http://www.julian-bez.de/blog/) I've set up redericts in every e-mail account I have, so everything goes to my gmail archive now. #3 | Norgus I'll just use it whenever I need it. Primary contact address, address to sign up to services that don't appear to be pure spam. Newsletters, personal small file sendage (although I often use yousendit if the file is of a medium to large size) I just use email more as a result of gmail being so convienient, I don't go out of my way to deliberately fill the provided space. #4 | minghong (http://minghong.webhop.org) No big change. Still used for email. #5 | Chris G. (http://chrisgonyea.com/) I really wish Gmail would offer the ability for your own personal domain to use the Gmail interface. That would seriously rock. Right now I just use it for webmail access when I am away from my computer. #6 | Tony C Before the storage was upped I had filled about 25% of the limit, now it's down to 13%. To fill mine up, I subscribed to every PCWorld and About.com newsletter. Everytime I'm asked for my email address online, I give them that one. AND, if any ever sends me a large attachment, I get them to send it to Gmail as well. #7 | evil latte (http://smashbot.net) I've added some photos and a couple files that I like to pass along to friends and whoever else. But that's all, nothing more. Its just an email account with a generous amount of storage. To me it's not that different from my Yahoo account. #8 | asqui If you just want to blindly fill up your space then find some high-traffic mailing lists to subscribe to -- preferably in HTML format. I've moved to using Gmail as my primary email hub, and recently started auto-forwarding messages from other accounts to my Gmail account for convenience. So far I'm up to 158MB in seven months of normal usage and I did have concerns about how I'd clean things up if-and-when I reach the limit (you can't export, or sort messages by size!) although this mild concern was further alleviated by the recent jump to over 2GB in quota. (My footer says 2053MB -- yee-har, 5MB extra on top of my 2 binary gigs) By the way, I've heard rumours or speculations that there isn't enforcement for the limit so when you fill it up it just merrily continues saying something like "You are currently using 105% of your space", which sounds fairly plausible -- the number of people exceeding the limit is probably not enough to cause trouble for them. Final tip: If you're subscribing to lists give them an email address in the format [email protected] Mail will still arrive at your inbox ([email protected]) but in future you'll be able to easily identify it (search for "to:+something") and remove it. If you sign-up to mailing lists etc. with a different email address (eg. Register for the New York Times supplying [email protected] as an email address) then you'll also be able to know who compromised your email address when you start receiving spam! #9 | Justin (http://behindtheyellowline.tk) That's an interesting tip... I'll have to try it. Anyway in addition to news headlines I also have a Dilbert comic coming in every day. and like mentioned before, I've forwarded all my past e-mail addresses to my gmail account. #10 | Griffith Isn't Yahoo also upgrading their users accounts to 1GB? #11 | Manny Fleurmond The counter has slowed down considerably. Think it is counting down to the 3GB mark?(possibly by next April's fools?) #12 | Derek Rose (http://www.thefeecalculator.com/) Why do people want to fill it up with junk just because you can? That only means google has to add more storage and spend more money, slowing down the growth for the rest of us that actually use it. #13 | John Novelty? I don't really have much in my gmail account... I use it for semi personal email, it is the email address on my resume and a few of my friends have it but they tend to just call me anyway... #14 | Ian (http://idowens.com) Like evil latte, I keep some files on there that I tend to forward more than others because its quicker than uploading it to my POP server each time. On the other hand, I haven't uploaded tons of files just becasue "I can"...I agree with Derek Rose in that, if you need it, go for it, if not, don't clutter it for kicks & giggles... #15 | Frost Like most everyone else, my Gmail doesn't have a lot in it. It actually gets the least email out of all my accounts. I don't think I'll try to fill it up too hard, since my Yahoo account is full of spam to the point where I ignore it like they said to do when they increased the size to 250MB. #16 | Abhishek Assume: 1 as [email protected] 2 as other email address. Well i tried one thing. I composed a message from 1 and set it to forward to 2. When 2 receives email from 1 I set it to forward again to 1. But this doesn't seem to work. because when last email is forwarded from 2 to 1 it says that message can't be forwarded because the email has a same message-id. #17 | Abhishek Check this site to fill gmail account.

Pakistan defeated Australia by six wickets in the Super 8 stage of the 2007 ICC World Twenty20 at Wanderers Stadium, Johannesburg, South Africa. Australia lost early wickets, with Matthew Hayden caught on one run in the first over. Adam Gilchrist made 24 before being removed in the fourth over. Andrew Symonds and Ricky Ponting added a 48 run partnership but Shahid Afridi bowled Symonds for 29 runs and Mohammad Hafeez bowled Ponting, who made 27. Michael Hussey (37) and Brad Hodge (36) shared 63 runs to help Australia to 164-7, while Sohail Tanvir took 3-31 for Pakistan. In response Pakistan were reduced to 46-4 in the seventh over as Australia's bowlers made breakthroughs. Stuart Clark took three wickets, dismissing Imran Nazir, Mohammad Hafeez and Younis Khan cheaply, while Salman Butt fell lbw to Mitchell Johnson. However Shoaib Malik (52 not out) and Misbah-ul-Haq (66 not out) claimed victory and a likely semi-final place for Pakistan. '''Toss:''' Pakistan won, and chose to field first.

Misbah-ul-Haq hit the biggest six of the tournament in his 66 not out The pair came to the crease with Pakistan struggling at 46-4 in the seventh over after Stuart Clark had taken three top-order wickets. Malik ended on 52, while Misbah was unbeaten on 66. The win is likely to secure Pakistan a semi-final place. Earlier, Sohail Tanvir claimed three wickets in Australia's 164-7. Misbah's innings also included the biggest six of the tournament so far, a tremendous front foot drive off Nathan Bracken which travelled an incredible 111m to usurp home favourite Albie Morkel at the top of the big-hitter's league. Malik won the toss and elected to field - and his decision immediately paid dividends when Tanvir had Matthew Hayden (1) caught by Younus Khan at mid-wicket in the second over. Adam Gilchrist (24) played his usual flamboyant innings before slashing an easy catch to Mohammad Hafeez at point in the fourth over. Ricky Ponting and Andrew Symonds began to repair the early damage, although Symonds was dropped on 26 by Hafeez, who shelled a tough caught and bowled chance in the eighth over. 606: DEBATE It was Shahid Afridi who made the vital breakthrough, bowling Symonds (29) as he attempted to smash the leg-spinner over long-on in the ninth over. And Hafeez then took the vital wicket of Ponting (27) two overs later, bowling the Australian captain as he hit across the line. Hussey and Hodge began to build a dangerous partnership, with Hussey in particular looking dangerous. But left-hander Hussey (37) succumbed when he drilled Tanvir to Imran Nazir in the deep in the final four overs. A superb direct hit from Afridi ran out Michael Clarke before Asif claimed the final wicket of the innings when Hodge (36) holed out to Younus in the deep. Australia got off to the ideal start when Clark ripped through Pakistan's top order, courtesy of undisciplined batting from Imran Nazir (10), Hafeez (15) and Younus (4), all of whom were dismissed playing needlessly expansive strokes. But thanks to their intelligent partnership, Malik and Misbah guided Pakistan through a rough patch to mount the perfect opportunity to counter-attack, pinpointing the off-spin of Symonds as a weak link. The pair plundered 17 from the 14th over of the innings, bowled by Symonds, to give them a target of 31 from 30 balls. And the duo reached the winning runs courtesy of a wide from Symonds with five balls to spare. Australia vice-captain Adam Gilchrist: "We always felt the total was a bit shy. I don't think our bowlers let us down, it was with the bat where we let ourselves down. "It always felt like a reasonable wicket. We've seen the way the ball gets to the boundary rope here. "We felt that in those conditions we were probably 15 or 20 runs short to really be confident of winning."

El español Carlos Sainz (Volkswagen) es el nuevo líder de la general en autos del Rally Dakar Argentina Chile, tras obtener el mejor registro en la segunda etapa de esta exigente competencia comprendida entre Santa Rosa y Puerto Madryn. El bicampeón mundial de rally obtuvo un tiempo de 1h 56m 14s en el tramo que unió la capital pampeana con la laguna La Blanca Grande y dejó a 1m 14s al francés Stephane Peterhansel (Mitsubishi) y a 1m 56s al sudafricano Giniel de Villiers (Volkswagen). De esta forma, Sainz se elevó a lo más alto de las posiciones generales gracias al retraso del qatarí Nasser Al Attiyah (BMW). Ahora el español lidera con un tiempo de 4h 34m 46s, seguido por De Villiers, a 2m 19s; Peterhansel, a 3m 51s; y Al Attiyah, a 4m 15s. Fervor en Madryn. El argentino Orlando Terranova (BMW) repite la buena actuación de ayer y se ubica octavo en esta segunda etapa, a 6m 20s de Sainz. La tercera etapa se correrá mañana entre de Puerto Madryn y Jacobacci, sobre un trazado de 694 km, que incluye un tramo especial de 551 km. Marc Coma sigue en la punta. Las motos fueron los primeros vehículos en empezar y terminar este segundo tramo del rally más importante del mundo. El catalán Marc Coma había ganado ayer la primera etapa. En el trayecto de hoy el más rápido fue el holandés Frans Verhoeven con un tiempo de 2 horas, 14 minutos y 48 segundos. Sin embargo, en la tabla general, el español sigue liderando la categoría, y lo escolta el piloto de los Países Bajos. Entre los cuatriciclos, el francés Christophe Declerck está primero en su categoría, escoltado por el polaco Rafal Sonik. Esta segunda etapa fue la más larga de la carrera (837 kilómetros), aunque la prueba de especial tiene un trayecto más corto que el de ayer (es de 237 km). Ver mapa más grande lanacionar

Santa Rosa Puerto Madryn El piloto español Carlos Sainz, de Wolkswagen, se convirtió en el líder en la general de automóviles del Rally Dakar 2009 al final de la segunda etapa que une las ciudades de Santa Rosa (Provincia de La Pampa) y Puerto Madryn (Provincia del Chubut). El catalán Marc Coma sigue al frente en la categoría de motos. El tiempo de Sainz durante este tramo fue de 1h 56m 14s. El segundo lugar fue para el francés Stephane Peterhansel, de Mitsubishi, a 1m 14s del ibérico. Sólo se cronometraron 237 kilómetros de los 837 que hay entre ambas ciudades, ya que los 600 kilómetros restantes sirvieron de enlace con Puerto Madryn. El piloto de Wolkswagen aprovechó el retraso del líder anterior, el qatarí Nasser Al Attiyah (BMW), que está en la tercera ubicación. "Ha sido una etapa muy rápida y complicada de navegación en las zonas fuera de pista –explicó Sainz–. También había mucho polvo y hemos tenido que adelantar a quads y motos, sufriendo con la escasa visibilidad; hasta el extremo que he tocado una moto que estaba tirada en el suelo, sola y sin piloto." Pese a que el neerlandés Frans Verhoeven ganó esta etapa (2h, 14m y 48s) para las motos, continúa en segundo lugar detrás de Coma, quien finalizó a 12m 27s del piloto de los Países Bajos. Al igual que ocurrió en Buenos Aires, miles de personas se juntaron en Puerto Madryn a la espera de los pilotos. El primero en llegar, Marc Coma, fue ovacionado por los chubutenses y turistas.

Berlin (Reuters) - Linkspartei-Chef Oskar Lafontaine zieht sich wegen seiner Krebserkrankung aus der Bundespolitik zurück. Der 66-Jährige gab am Samstag in Berlin bekannt, dass er beim Parteitag im Mai nicht erneut für den Spitzenposten kandidieren wird. Auch sein Bundestagsmandat legt er nieder, er bleibt aber Fraktionschef im Saarland. Dem Abschied von der großen politischen Bühne geht ein langer Entscheidungsprozess voraus. Der von ihm mitgegründeten Partei schrieb er ins Stammbuch, sich programmatisch klar abzugrenzen. Das Personalkarussell um seine Nachfolge ist bereits eröffnet. Lafontaine hatte im November eine Krebs-Operation vornehmen lassen müssen. Nach einer Sitzung des Parteivorstands in Berlin sagte er, noch gebe es keine Gewissheit, ob er die Krankheit überwunden habe: "Der Krebs war ein Warnschuss, über den ich nicht hinweggehen kann." Der äußerlich fit wirkende und gelöst auftretende Lafontaine betonte, sein Rückzug habe ausschließlich gesundheitliche Gründe und nichts mit den Personaldebatten der letzten Wochen zu tun. Lafontaine hatte sich mit dem scheidenden Linken-Bundesgeschäftsführer Dietmar Bartsch überworfen. Die Entscheidung sei ihm sehr schwergefallen, sagte Lafontaine. Er habe mehrere Krankheits-Attacken zu überstehen gehabt und lange nachgedacht. Die Partei sei aber in der Lage, ihren erfolgreich eingeschlagenen Weg weiterzugehen. Dabei seien weniger die Personen als die politischen Inhalte entscheidend. Der Partei sei es etwa in der Afghanistan-Frage gelungen, Themen zu setzen, und die anderen Parteien vor sich her zu treiben. Jetzt habe die Linke gute Chancen, im Mai in den Landtag Nordrhein-Westfalens einzuziehen. GYSI: "ES TUT WEH" Fraktionschef Gregor Gysi nannte die Entscheidung schmerzlich: "Es tut ausgesprochen weh." Ohne Lafontaine würde es die Linke nicht geben. Der frühere SPD-Chef, Bundesfinanzminister und saarländische Ministerpräsident führt die Linkspartei seit ihrer Gründung 2007. Gysi sagte, Lafontaine wisse, "worauf die Bevölkerung anspringt" und könne dies auch zugespitzt ausdrücken. "Er ist nicht ersetzbar", sagte Gysi. Zu möglichen Nachfolgern wollten sich Lafontaine und Gysi nicht äußern. Gysi sagte, es sei Aufgabe seiner Generation, den Vereinigungsprozess von PDS und WASG zu vollenden. Dazu wolle er seinen Beitrag leisten. Direkten Fragen zu möglichen eigenen Ambitionen wich Gysi ebenso wie Parteivize Klaus Ernst aus. In Parteikreisen hieß es, für Lafontaines Nachfolge seien mehrer Personen denkbar. Genannt wurden die Bundestagsabgeordneten Gesine Lötzsch und Petra Pau sowie Ernst. Es sei aber auch denkbar, dass Gysi für eine befristete Zeit auch die Partei führe. Geklärt werden muss grundsätzlich, ob die Partei wie vorgesehen auf eine Doppelspitze verzichte und nur einen Vorsitzenden bestimmt, oder die Doppelspitze beibehält. FDP-Chef Guido Westerwelle sagte der "Bild am Sonntag", so sehr er Lafontaine politisch bekämpft habe, so sehr bedauere er den Anlass für seinen Rückzug und wünschte ihm Gesundheit. Die stellvertretende SPD-Chefin Hannelore Kraft bot den Mitgliedern der Linken einen Wechsel zur SPD an. Grünen-Chefin Claudia Roth sagte, die Partei müsse sich nun entscheiden, ob sie weiter den Weg in die polternde Fundamentalopposition gehen wolle oder die Chance ergreife, verantwortlich Politik zu gestalten. Lafontaine sagte, er werde sich auch künftig zur Bundespolitik äußern. Eine Gruppe von Bundestagsabgeordneten von Linken, SPD und Grünen veröffentlichte in der "Frankfurter Allgemeinen Zeitung" einen gemeinsamen Aufruf, in dem sie ihre Parteien aufforderten, ab sofort auf eine rot-rot-grüne Mehrheit im Bund hinzuarbeiten. Es müsse geklärt werden, wie es jenseits von Union und FDP zu parlamentarischen Mehrheiten kommen könne, hieß es darin.

Oskar Lafontaine (2007) Der Vorsitzende der Partei „Die Linke“ im Deutschen Bundestag, Oskar Lafontaine, erklärte heute auf einer Pressekonferenz, er werde auf dem Parteitag im Mai nicht erneut für den Bundesvorsitz seiner Partei kandidieren. Auch sein Bundestagsmandat werde er niederlegen. Lafontaine begründete seinen Rückzug mit gesundheitlichen Problemen. Der Krebs sei „ein Warnschuss“ gewesen, den er nicht ignorieren könne, erklärte Lafontaine. Er hatte sich im November einer Krebsoperation unterzogen. Den Fraktionsvorsitz der Fraktion seiner Partei im Landtag des Saarlandes wolle er jedoch behalten. Die stellvertretende Fraktionsvorsitzende der Linkspartei im Deutschen Bundestag, Gesine Lötzsch, würdigte die politische Leistung Lafontaines beim Zusammenschluss der PDS und der im Westen agierenden „Wahlalternative Arbeit & soziale Gerechtigkeit“ (WASG) als „historisch“. Lafontaine war seit 2007 neben Lothar Bisky Vorsitzender der Partei „Die Linke“.

(Bild: Reuters) Nach wochenlangen Spekulationen hat Oskar Lafontaine, der Chef der deutschen Linkspartei, am Samstag seinen Rückzug aus der Bundespolitik angekündigt. Er werde im Mai nicht mehr für den Vorstand der Linken kandidieren und sein Mandat im Bundestag niederlegen, sagte Lafontaine. (sda/Reuters/afp/dpa) Oskar Lafontaine, der Chef der deutschen Linkspartei, zieht sich wegen seiner Krebserkrankung aus der Bundespolitik zurück. Der 66-Jährige gab am Samstag bekannt, beim Parteitag im Mai nicht für den Spitzenposten kandidieren wird. Auch sein Bundestagsmandat legt er nieder, bleibt aber Fraktionschef im Saarland. Anzeige Dem Abschied von der grossen politischen Bühne geht ein langer Entscheidungsprozess voraus. Der von ihm mitgegründeten Partei schrieb er ins Stammbuch, sich programmatisch klar abzugrenzen. Das Personalkarussell um seine Nachfolge ist bereits eröffnet. Lafontaine hatte im November eine Krebs-Operation vornehmen lassen müssen. Nach einer Sitzung des Parteivorstands in Berlin sagte er, noch gebe es keine Gewissheit, ob er die Krankheit überwunden habe: «Der Krebs war ein Warnschuss, über den ich nicht hinweggehen kann.» Gesundheit alleiniger Grund Der äusserlich fit wirkende und gelöst auftretende Lafontaine betonte, sein Rückzug habe ausschliesslich gesundheitliche Gründe und nichts mit den Personaldebatten der letzten Wochen zu tun. Lafontaine hatte sich mit dem scheidenden Linken-Bundesgeschäftsführer Dietmar Bartsch überworfen. Die Entscheidung sei ihm sehr schwergefallen, sagte Lafontaine. Er habe mehrere Krankheits-Attacken zu überstehen gehabt und lange nachgedacht. Die Partei sei aber in der Lage, ihren erfolgreich eingeschlagenen Weg weiterzugehen. Dabei seien weniger die Personen als die politischen Inhalte entscheidend. Der Partei sei es etwa in der Afghanistan-Frage gelungen, Themen zu setzen, und die anderen Parteien vor sich her zu treiben. Jetzt habe die Linke gute Chancen, im Mai in den Landtag Nordrhein- Westfalens einzuziehen. Gysi: «Es tut weh» Fraktionschef Gregor Gysi nannte die Entscheidung schmerzlich: «Es tut ausgesprochen weh.» Ohne Lafontaine würde es die Linke nicht geben. Der frühere SPD-Chef, Bundesfinanzminister und saarländische Ministerpräsident führt die Linkspartei seit ihrer Gründung 2007. Gysi sagte, Lafontaine wisse, «worauf die Bevölkerung anspringt» und könne dies auch zugespitzt ausdrücken. «Er ist nicht ersetzbar», sagte Gysi. Zu möglichen Nachfolgern wollten sich Lafontaine und Gysi nicht äussern. In Parteikreisen hiess es, für Lafontaines Nachfolge seien mehrere Personen denkbar. Genannt wurden die Bundestagsabgeordneten Gesine Lötzsch und Petra Pau sowie Ernst. Es sei aber auch denkbar, dass Gysi für eine befristete Zeit auch die Partei führe. Bedauern von Westerwelle FDP-Chef Guido Westerwelle sagte der «Bild am Sonntag», so sehr er Lafontaine politisch bekämpft habe, so sehr bedauere er den Anlass für seinen Rückzug und wünschte ihm Gesundheit. Die stellvertretende SPD-Chefin Hannelore Kraft bot den Mitgliedern der Linken einen Wechsel zur SPD an. Grünen-Chefin Claudia Roth sagte, die Partei müsse sich nun entscheiden, ob sie weiter den Weg in die polternde Fundamentalopposition gehen wolle oder die Chance ergreife, verantwortlich Politik zu gestalten. Lafontaine sagte, er werde sich auch künftig zur Bundespolitik äussern. Eine Gruppe von Bundestagsabgeordneten von Linken, SPD und Grünen veröffentlichte in der «Frankfurter Allgemeinen Zeitung» einen gemeinsamen Aufruf, in dem sie ihre Parteien aufforderten, ab sofort auf eine rot-rot-grüne Mehrheit im Bund hinzuarbeiten. Es müsse geklärt werden, wie es jenseits von Union und FDP zu parlamentarischen Mehrheiten kommen könne, hiess es darin.

Oskar Lafontaine (2007) Der Vorsitzende der Partei „Die Linke“ im Deutschen Bundestag, Oskar Lafontaine, erklärte heute auf einer Pressekonferenz, er werde auf dem Parteitag im Mai nicht erneut für den Bundesvorsitz seiner Partei kandidieren. Auch sein Bundestagsmandat werde er niederlegen. Lafontaine begründete seinen Rückzug mit gesundheitlichen Problemen. Der Krebs sei „ein Warnschuss“ gewesen, den er nicht ignorieren könne, erklärte Lafontaine. Er hatte sich im November einer Krebsoperation unterzogen. Den Fraktionsvorsitz der Fraktion seiner Partei im Landtag des Saarlandes wolle er jedoch behalten. Die stellvertretende Fraktionsvorsitzende der Linkspartei im Deutschen Bundestag, Gesine Lötzsch, würdigte die politische Leistung Lafontaines beim Zusammenschluss der PDS und der im Westen agierenden „Wahlalternative Arbeit & soziale Gerechtigkeit“ (WASG) als „historisch“. Lafontaine war seit 2007 neben Lothar Bisky Vorsitzender der Partei „Die Linke“.

Rückzug als Linken-Chef Lafontaine gibt Parteivorsitz ab Foto: DDP Video: Reuters Oskar Lafontaine zieht sich aus der Bundespolitik zurück: Der Linken-Chef gibt Parteivorsitz und Bundestagsmandat ab - aus gesundheitlichen Gründen. Damit steht die Parteispitze vor einem Komplettumbau. Berlin - Linken-Chef Oskar Lafontaine hat seinen Rückzug aus der Bundespolitik erklärt: Der 66-Jährige legt Parteivorsitz und Bundestagsmandat im Mai nieder. Lafontaine sagte auf einer Pressekonferenz nach einer Vorstandssitzung am Samstag in Berlin, der Rückzug habe "ausschließlich gesundheitliche Gründe". Zuvor war bereits aus Parteikreisen bekanntgeworden, dass Lafontaine auf dem Parteitag in Rostock Mitte Mai nicht erneut kandidieren werde. Lafontaine hatte Ende November eine Krebserkrankung öffentlich gemacht und sich einer Operation unterzogen. Kurz darauf war ein Machtkampf in der Partei entbrannt. Seit Wochen wurde spekuliert, ob Lafontaine sich nach seiner Erkrankung aus der Bundespolitik weitgehend zurückzieht und sich auf die Arbeit als Fraktionschef im Saarbrücker Landtag konzentriert. Lafontaine nannte seine Krankheit als alleinigen Grund für den Rückzug. "Der Krebs war ein Warnschuss" und seine "zweite existenzielle Krise" nach dem Attentat von 1990, erklärte der Linken-Politiker. Eine verwirrte Frau hatte den damaligen SPD-Vorsitzenden und Kanzlerkandidaten mit einem Messer lebensbedrohlich am Hals verletzt. Gewissheit über den weiteren Verlauf der Krankheit könne es nicht nach wenigen Wochen geben. "Der Vorstand hat den Rückzug bedauert und akzeptiert", sagte Lafontaine. Weiter "bundespolitisch Wirkung erzielen" Bis zum Ende seiner Amtszeit als Parteivorsitzender werde er sich nach Kräften für die Partei einsetzen. "Ich bringe mich in den NRW-Wahlkampf ein", verkündete Lafontaine. Im Saarland bleibt er der Fraktionsvorsitzende der Linken im Landtag. Auch von dort werde er "bundespolitisch Wirkung erzielen", sagte Bundestagsfraktionschef Gregor Gysi, der bei der Pressekonferenz neben Lafontaine saß. Gysi lobte Lafontaine und unterstrich seine politischen Verdienste. Lafontaine "war, ist und bleibt eine herausragende Figur" in der deutschen wie europäischen Politik, sagte Gysi. Er habe sich herausragende politische Verdienste erworben. "Er ist nicht ersetzbar", sagte Gysi. Der frühere SPD-Vorsitzende Lafontaine führt die Linke zusammen mit Lothar Bisky seit dem Zusammenschluss von Linkspartei.PDS und WASG im Jahr 2007. Bisky wird im Mai ebenfalls nicht wieder kandidieren. Damit steht die Parteispitze vor einem Komplettumbau. Machtkämpfe in der Partei Zuletzt hatten Machtkämpfe zwischen Realos und Fundis die Linke erschüttert. Auch Bundesgeschäftsführer Dietmar Bartsch, der als Lafontaine-Gegner gilt, kündigte zuletzt an, im Mai nicht erneut für dieses Amt zu kandidieren. Ihm war zuvor Illoyalität gegenüber Lafontaine vorgeworfen worden. Fraktionschef Gysi hatte sich dabei gegen Bartsch gestellt. Zu den Spannungen zwischen Bartsch und ihm sagte Lafontaine: "Die letzten Wochen habe ich nicht als Machtkampf erlebt. Es gab nur unterschiedliche Vorstellungen über die Wahrnehmungen von Aufgaben." Lafontaine sagte über sein Wirken an der Spitze der Linken, "die Profilierungsstrategie der vergangenen Jahre war die richtige." Es gebe auch keinen Streit darüber, beteuerte Lafontaine. "Dass der Osten regierunsgwillig ist, der Westen aber nicht, stimmt nicht." Diskussion über Nachfolge steht bevor Lafontaine wird nach Ansicht von Bundestagsfraktions-Vize Gesine Lötzsch auch nach seinem Rückzug vom Vorsitz eine wichtige Rolle in der Politik spielen. "All diejenigen, die hoffen, dass er sich aus der Politik zurückziehen wird, werden sich geirrt haben", erklärte sie am Samstag beim Landesparteitag der baden-württembergischen Linken in Stuttgart. Lafontaines Beitrag zur Vereinigung der Linken mit der WASG bezeichnete Lötzsch als "historisch". "Ich weiß nicht, wer in diesem Land eine solche Leistung vollbracht hat." Sachsens Linken-Fraktionschef André Hahn fordert eine "offene, vor allem aber würdevolle Diskussion" um die neue Parteispitze. Nach der Rückzugsankündigung von Parteichef Oskar Lafontaine sagte Hahn in Chemnitz, in die Nachfolge-Regelung müssten auch die Landes- und Fraktionschefs einbezogen werden. Zugleich bedauerte Hahn die Entscheidung Lafontaines, "aber die Gesundheit geht immer vor". Auf die Frage ob er nach einer möglichen Genesung wieder für das Amt des Bundesvorsitzenden zur Verfügung steht, antwortete Lafontaine selbst ausweichend: "Ich bin derzeit mit meiner Genesung beschäftigt." cht/suc/dpa Social Networks

Asian Nations Pledge to Double Wild Tiger Numbers The commitment to re-populate wild tigers was made in Thailand at the first Asia ministerial conference on tiger conservation and was welcomed by conservation groups. Photo: AP Thirteen Asian countries have pledged to double their numbers of wild tigers by 2022, the next Chinese year of the tiger. Human encroachment and poaching have devastated wild tiger populations. Representatives from the thirteen Asian nations with wild tiger populations agreed Friday to aim for a doubling of wild tiger numbers in the next twelve years. The tiger range nations pledged to better protect wild tigers and their habitats. The commitment to re-populate wild tigers was made in Thailand at the first Asia ministerial conference on tiger conservation and was welcomed by conservation groups. Michael Baltzer, is in charge of the global tiger initiative for the conservation group WWF (World Wildlife Fund), says time is running out to save wild tigers. "This is important because the tigers are in a serious decline and it's really the tipping point for tigers," he said. "This is the Year of the Tiger and it's the year that all of the concerned organizations have come together and said enough is enough. We really need to turn around the future for wild tigers and so it's really this year or never." The meeting in Thailand was organized in part by the Global Tiger Initiative, a coalition of the World Bank, conservation groups, and the Smithsonian Institute that aims to repopulate wild tigers. "You know if you save the tiger, you are saving the habitat for a lot of other species," said Keshav Varma, the program director for the World Bank's Global Tiger Initiative. "So the tiger is symbolic about this and as the apex and the most charismatic species, it is drawing attention to the habitat and to the prey base, to encroachment, to corruption, to so many issues." Tigers are found wild in China, Russia and most of South and Southeast Asia. But whereas a century ago there were an estimated 100,000 wild tigers found from Iran to Indonesia to Russia, now around 3,500 are believed to live in only seven percent of their original territory. The WWF says a poaching epidemic has wiped out much of the wild tiger population. Tigers are killed so their bones and organs can be sold as expensive Chinese folk medicines. Intensive hunting of tiger prey and infrastructure development has also contributed to reducing wild tiger numbers.

Malayan Tiger swimming (2007) Ministers from thirteen countries in Asia pledged on Friday to doubling the wild tiger population on the continent by 2022, to seven thousand. The commitment was made in Thailand, and is first Asia ministerial conference on tiger conservation; the thirteen countries that upheld the pledge were Bangladesh, Bhutan, Cambodia, China, India, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Nepal, Russia, Thailand, and Vietnam — all countries in which the wild Asian tiger is still found. "The wild tiger is already in crisis. This may be our last chance to save it," commented Thai Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva in a video address. The meeting was partially organised by the Global Tiger Initiative, a coalition group within the World Bank, as well as the Smithsonian Institute and various conservation groups. Meeting host Suwit Khunkitti, who is also the Thai minister of natural resources and environment, also remarked that "tigers are at a tipping point. There were 100,000 tigers across our range countries 100 years ago. Today, there are about 3,500 left." Wild tigers are primarily found in China, Russia and most of southern Asia; according to the World Wildlife Fund (WWF), tiger numbers have been reduced due to a poaching epidemic. The animals live in only seven percent of the territory they had a hundred years ago, according to Voice of America. Michael Baltzer, who is with the WWF, noted: "This is important because the tigers are in a serious decline and it's really the tipping point for tigers. This is the Year of the Tiger and it's the year that all of the concerned organizations have come together and said enough is enough.

While we twiddle our thumbs, global warming is worsening at a faster and faster pace. Each individual on earth needs to act like his personal government and environmental agent, to gain a fuller appreciation of how technology and 'new' thinking can prevent such vast amounts of emissions. Many solutions are being found, but they have to appear this year. Otherwise, the winter in Paris could be uncomfortable in so many different ways. Posted Mon, 04 May 2015 11:09:54 GMT by Dave ArmstrongThe future is talked about, the climate is changing, but when will we finally stop the rot. Forests are essential but from Japanese furniture to cardboard and toilet paper, they are still being used illogically and incomprehensibly by people who all know better. The time has come to prevent the disappearance of these trees and all the animals that live in, on and around them. This is a desperate time for us and all the other species around forests. Posted Fri, 01 May 2015 08:42:42 GMT by JW DoweyConservation is not only about the big animals. The plants, their consumers and the rest of an ecosystem may not catch headlines, but involving them and indigenous populations is crucial to our last ditch efforts to keep these organisms alive in their habitat. Posted Wed, 29 Apr 2015 08:39:05 GMT by Dave ArmstrongGreat research requires a similar amount of attention, as we concentrate on climate change and global warming. One of our most significant assets is the Amazonian forests that absorb more of our carbon dioxide than any other. Here is a possible link to the answers we need to preserve this vitally-important function and our own world as we know it. Posted Mon, 27 Apr 2015 08:14:25 GMT by Dave ArmstrongWhile plastic and chemicals destroys turtles at sea, the nesting sites are receiving much more care now to ensure the rarest species can still slowly reproduce. There are officially none more cared-for than Jumby Bay on an island off Antigua. The private island situation helps, but any extra aid has to count with all critically endangered species that we so often have to save from extinction.

Posted Fri, 24 Apr 2015 09:29:11 GMT by Dave ArmstrongNeonicotinoids have devastated the bee populations on all continents, but one way to fight this insidious neuronal and behavioural attack on our major pollinators is to investigate their most intimate genetic secrets and help them by understanding how they survive their natural threats. We could have made things much worse for animals, but we can also understand better now how to help them in so many ways. Those fruit orchards are going to be very empty if we don’t.

Posted Mon, 20 Apr 2015 08:22:41 GMT by Dave ArmstrongThe need to get pure bred animals back into the wild as well as create a genetic diversity from all available stock is emphasised in this exercise.

Stag beetles now appear to stand out as one of the most remarkable and numerous speciations from a basic model of battling males. Some species survive because flight is used as an alternative to walking – those mandibularare so heavy! Posted Wed, 15 Apr 2015 09:17:31 GMT by JW DoweyThe consideration of all factors in your environment is a policy that escapes most politicians, many scientists and even you. Water is inescapable, becoming more scarce and highly useful for normal life. Just ask a Martian. When we look back on the 21st century, and not the 20th as we do here, it is certain that water will be seen as one of the most critical losses from our societies, from the African deserts, to the American groundwater crises; from Manila’s complex water privatisation to simple pollution by nuclear, chemical and fuelling industries.

Aufgepeitschte Wogen an der Nordwestküste Spaniens© Miguek Riopa/AFP In der Nacht hatten Orkanböen Geschwindigkeiten von bis zu 200 Stundenkilometern erreicht. Im Norden Spaniens wurden in der Gegend von Burgos zwei Männer getötet, die mit einem Auto gegen einen umgestürzten Baum geprallt waren, der auf der Fahrbahn lag. Bei Ourense im Nordwesten des Landes wurde eine 82-jährige Frau von einer umstürzenden Mauer erschlagen. Im Norden Portugals tötete in der Gegend von Porto ein abbrechender Ast einen zehnjährigen Jungen. Deutschland rüstet sich für den Sturm Ab Sonntagnachmittag soll Tief Xynthia im Westen, höheren Mittelgebirgslagen und den Alpen Sturmböen bringen, im Westen und Südwesten sogar orkanartige Böen. Von der Iberischen Halbinsel kommend zieht das Tief mit seinem Zentrum vom Ärmelkanal entlang der Nordseeküste in Richtung Schleswig-Holstein. An seiner Flanke erfasst ein Sturmfeld den Südwesten und Westen, das sich im weiteren Verlauf vor allem über den Mittelgebirgsraum ostwärts ausweitet. Der Deutsche Wetterdienst warnt im Westen und Südwesten vor orkanartigen Böen mit Windgeschwindigkeiten von 110 Stundenkilometern (Stärke 11); im Alpenraum bestehe die Gefahr von unwetterartigen Böen zwischen 100 und 120 Stundenkilometern, auf exponierten Gipfeln auch Böen über 120 Stundenkilometer (Stärke 12). Gleichzeitig ist im Mittelgebirgsraum Dauerregen möglich. Später im Tagesverlauf und in der Nacht zum Montag geht im Norden und in höheren Mittelgebirgslagen der Niederschlag zunehmend in Schnee über. Oberhalb von 600 Metern bilden sich dann in exponierten Berglagen auch Schneeverwehungen, wie die Meteorologen vorhersagen. Am Dienstag wird das Wetter zumindest im Südwesten deutlich besser. Bei rund zehn Grad ist es meist trocken, manchmal lässt sich die Sonne blicken. Im Nordosten sieht es schlechter aus. Hier ist der Himmel bewölkt, es kann bei Temperaturen um drei Grad etwas regnen oder schneien. Der Wind weht nur noch schwach bis mäßig.

Satellitenfilm Orkan Xynthia Ein gigantisches Orkantief, das den Namen Xynthia erhielt, wütet über Südwesteuropa und überquerte gestern Spanien, Frankreich, Belgien und die Niederlande sowie später Nordrhein-Westfalen und Niedersachsen. Das Tiefdruckgebiet bewegte sich mit Windgeschwindigkeiten zwischen 80 und 150 Kilometern pro Stunde über Südwesteuropa und erreichte im Laufe des Tages Westdeutschland. Der Orkan soll erst in der Nacht zum Montag die neuen Bundesländer erreichen. Mit einer Wetterberuhigung rechnet der Deutsche Wetterdienst frühestens am Montag. Zuvor war das Orkantief über die Kanarischen Inseln hinweggefegt und hatte dort erhebliche Zerstörungen angerichtet. Eine Spur der Verwüstung zog sich dann über die Iberische Halbinsel hin. In Spanien deckte der Orkan Dächer ab und entwurzelte Bäume; Strommasten knickten um wie Streichhölzer. Hier starben vier Menschen, an der französischen Atlantikküste kamen durch den Sturm neun Menschen ums Leben. Dort stand das Wasser zeitweise bis anderthalb Meter in den Straßen, die Bewohner der Häuser retteten sich auf Hausdächer. In den Pyrenäen kam es Informationen des Senders France Info zufolge zu Felsstürzen. Der Grenzübergang zu Spanien wurde zeitweise geschlossen. In der Nacht hatten die Orkanböen Spitzengeschwindigkeiten bis zu 200 Kilometern pro Stunde erreicht. Datei:Orkan Xynthia Darmstadt 28.2.2010.jpg|miniatur|links|Umstürzende Bäume rissen – wie hier in Darmstadt – Oberleitungen nieder. Auch in Deutschland kommt es zu Schäden und Einschränkungen. In Rheinland-Pfalz, im Saarland und in Nordrhein-Westfalen ist der gesamte Bahn-, in Hessen der gesamte Regionalverkehr zum Erliegen gekommen. In Baden-Württemberg sind ebenfalls einige Strecken gesperrt. Der Fernbahnhof des Frankfurter Flughafens und der Frankfurter Hauptbahnhof sind geschlossen. Viele Straßen wurden wegen umgestürzter Bäume gesperrt. Dies betraf zeitweise auch die nordrhein-westfälischen Autobahnen A1, A4, A44 und A540. In einigen Regionen kam es zu Stromausfällen. Insgesamt starben bisher mindestens 52 Menschen an den Folgen des Unwetters, die meisten davon in Frankreich. Besonders betroffen war hier das Department Vendée, wo mindestens 29 Personen in den Gemeinden La Faute-sur-Mer, L'Aiguillon-sur-Mer und La-Tranche-sur-Mer ertranken. Ein Mensch wurde von einem umstürzenden Baum erschlagen. Auch im Schwarzwald und in der Nähe von Pohlheim wurde jeweils ein Mensch von einem Baum erschlagen.

Das gewaltige Sturmtief „Xynthia“ hat im westlichen Europa schwere Schäden angerichtet und mindestens 21 Menschen das Leben gekostet. Die meisten Toten gab es in Frankreich. Dort brachte „Xynthia“ das schwerste Unwetter seit mehr als zehn Jahren. Für eine Million Menschen fiel der Strom aus. Im Schwarzwald starb am Sonntag ein Mensch, als ein Baum auf sein Auto stürzte. Viele Straßen Baden-Württembergs waren von entwurzelten Bäumen blockiert, auch die Autobahn 5 war betroffen. Auf dem Frankfurter Flughafen wurden bereits am frühen Nachmittag 22 Starts und Landungen gestrichen. Es gab zahlreiche Verspätungen. Wegen zerborstener Glasscheiben musste auch der Fernbahnhof am Flughafen vorrübergehend gesperrt werden. Auch bundesweit war der Bahn-Verkehr beeinträchtigt. In Rheinland-Pfalz und im Saarland richtete das Sturmtief ebenfalls erhebliche Schäden an. In Landau wurde eine Frau sehr schwer verletzt, als der Sturm ein Eisentor aus der Verankerung riss, das sie gerade schließen wollte. Am stärksten wütete der Sturm in der Eifel und im Hunsrück. Auch dort waren zahlreiche Straßen wegen entwurzelter Bäume gesperrt. „Die Bäume knicken um wie die Streichhölzer“, hieß es beim Lagezentrum in Mainz. Mancherorts fiel der Strom aus. In Portugal und Nordspanien hatte sich „Xynthia“ zuerst ausgetobt. Dort hatten die Orkanböen in der Nacht Geschwindigkeiten von bis zu 200 Stundenkilometern erreicht. In Spanien starben zwei Männer, als ihr Auto gegen einen umgestürzten Baum prallte. Eine 82-jährige Frau wurde von einer umstürzenden Mauer erschlagen. Im Norden Portugals tötete ein abbrechender Ast einen zehnjährigen Jungen. In Frankreich starben mindestens 16 Menschen. An den Küsten habe der Wind eine Geschwindigkeit von bis zu 150 Stundenkilometern erreicht, berichtete der Sender France-Info am Sonntag. Ein junger Mann wurde von einem umstürzenden Baum erschlagen. An der Atlantikküste ertranken mehrere Menschen. In zahlreichen Orten in der Nähe von La Rochelle stand das Wasser bis zu 1,50 Meter hoch in den Straßen, Menschen retteten sich auf die Häuserdächer. Air France strich etwa 70 von insgesamt 700 Flügen, die am Sonntag auf dem Pariser Flughafen Charles de Gaulle starten oder landen sollten. In den Pyrenäen stürzten Felsbrocken auf die Straßen. Die Grenze zu Spanien wurde zeitweise geschlossen. Nach der Vorhersage der Meteorologen sollte sich das Sturmtief mit Böen in Orkanstärke noch bis zum Sonntagabend über Baden-Württemberg, Rheinland-Pfalz, Nordrhein-Westfalen und dem Saarland austoben. „Xyntiha“ sei ein Sturmtief, „wie man es nicht jedes Jahr hat“, sagte Meteorologe Peter Hartmann vom Deutschen Wetterdienst (DWD) in Offenbach. Er warnte vor Spaziergängen im Wald. „Und wer nicht Auto fahren muss, sollte es besser vermeiden.“

Der Bahnverkehr in Deutschland beginnt sich zu normalisieren. Einschränkungen infolge des Orkans „Kyrill“ gibt es derzeit vor allem noch in Teilen von Berlin/Brandenburg, Süddeutschland, Sachsen, Sachsen-Anhalt und Thüringen sowie in Westfalen. Der Nahverkehr konnte bereits in den Morgenstunden vielerorts wieder aufgenommen werden. Die S-Bahnverkehre in den Ballungsräumen laufen weitgehend. Auf vielen wichtigen Strecken fahren auch wieder Züge des Fernverkehrs, darunter auf den Strecken: Hamburg-Berlin Hamburg-Hannover Hannover-Göttingen Berlin-Dresden Dortmund-Münster Köln-Aachen-Brüssel Köln-Frankfurt Kassel-Frankfurt München-Stuttgart Frankfurt-Karlsruhe-Basel sowie Dresden-Leipzig-Frankfurt/Main. Seit dem Mittag ist auch der Berliner Hauptbahnhof wieder voll in Betrieb, die Züge halten und die Geschäfte sind geöffnet. Die Reparatur- und Aufräumarbeiten laufen auf Hochtouren. Die häufigsten Schadensbilder sind Bäume und Äste im Gleis, beschädigte Oberleitungen und Äste, die sich in Stromabnehmer der Züge verhakt haben. Derzeit sind alle verfügbaren Instandhaltungsfahrzeuge und -mitarbeiter im Einsatz. Die Arbeiten werden aufgrund des immensen Ausmaßes der Schäden voraussichtlich den ganzen Tag andauern, mancherorts auch darüber hinaus. Die Schadenshöhe infolge des Orkans ist derzeit noch nicht einzuschätzen. Die Bahn empfiehlt den Reisenden, sich vor Fahrtantritt frühzeitig über die aktuellen Reisemöglichkeiten zu informieren und von nicht notwendigen Reisen abzusehen. Für Informationen zur aktuellen Lage hat die Deutsche Bahn die kostenlose Sonder-Hotline 0 8000 99 66 33 eingerichtet.

Artikel-Services 60 Tote in Westeuropa Aufräumen nach „Xynthia“ 01. März 2010 60 Tote in Westeuropa und Schäden in Millionenhöhe - die Bilanz nach dem Orkantief „Xynthia“ fällt verheerend aus. Allein in Frankreich hat der schwerste Sturm der vergangenen zehn Jahre nach Angaben des Zivilschutzes 48 Menschen in den Tod gerissen. Bis zu 180 Stundenkilometer schnelle Böen rasten am Sonntag auch über Deutschland. Sieben Menschen starben. Auf Straßen, Schienen und in der Luft brach ein Verkehrschaos aus. Am Montag normalisierte sich die Lage langsam. Überall wurden kubikmeterweise Holz, demolierte Autos, herausgerissene Verkehrsschilder und herabgestürzte Dachziegel aufgeräumt. Für Schätzungen der Schadenshöhe sei es noch zu früh, teilten die Versicherungen Münchner Rück und Allianz mit. Allein in Rheinland- Pfalz müssen Reparaturen im Wert von zwei Millionen Euro in Auftrag gegen werden, wie das Innenministerium mitteilte. Besonders schlimm war „Xynthia“ über die französische Atlantikküste hereingebrochen. Staatspräsident Nicolas Sarkozy zeigte sich geschockt, als er die Verwüstungen und die Leichen sah: „All diese Menschen, die ertrunken sind, das ist niederschmetternd.“ Sarkozy kündigte Hilfen in Höhe von drei Millionen Euro an. Er wollte die betroffenen Regionen zu Katastrophengebieten erklären lassen, damit Versicherungen schneller Entschädigungen zahlen. In Nordspanien und Portugal gab es vier Tote. In Belgien wurde ein Mann im Garten von einem Baum erschlagen. Bäume fielen wie Streichhölzer um Auch in Deutschland knickten die gewaltigen Orkanböen Bäume wie Streichhölzer um - vier Menschen kamen so ums Leben. Eine Frau aus dem südpfälzischen Landau, die von einem umstürzenden Eisentor getroffen worden war, erlag in der Nacht zum Montag ihren schweren Verletzungen. In Niedersachsen wurde ein Mann bei Bückeburg mit seinem Auto von der Fahrbahn gegen einen Baum geweht. Im hessischen Biblis riss vermutlich eine Böe einen Zweijährigen in einen Fluss. Im Schwarzwald kam ein Autofahrer ums Leben, bei Wiesbaden ein Wanderer. In Nordrhein-Westfalen starben eine Joggerin und eine Autofahrerin. Am schlimmsten wütete der Sturm in Rheinland-Pfalz, Nordrhein- Westfalen, Hessen und Baden-Württemberg. Dort wurden selbst im Flachland bis zu 133 Stundenkilometer schnelle Böen registriert. Gemessen an der Zahl der Opfer war „Xynthia“ ein schlimmerer Orkan als „Kyrill“ (2007) mit 47 Toten. „Lothar“ hatte im Dezember 1999 nach Angaben der Münchner Rück europaweit 110 Menschen in den Tod gerissen, andere Quellen nennen eine geringere Opferzahl. Die Forstschäden halten sich diesmal in Grenzen. Das zeigt auch eine erste Bilanz aus der Eifel: „Wir haben was abgekriegt, aber bei weitem nicht so viel wie bei „Kyrill““, sagte Robert Jansen vom Regionalforstamt in Hürtgenwald. In einigen Regionen Deutschlands, darunter in ganz Nordrhein- Westfalen und im Saarland, war der Zugverkehr am Sonntag komplett eingestellt worden. Tausende Fahrgäste saßen fest. Bahnmitarbeiter hatten in der Nacht die verwüsteten Gleise wieder freigeräumt. Langsam löste sich am Montag der Stau gestrandeter Züge auf. Bis zum frühen Nachmittag sollten Fernzüge wieder planmäßig fahren, sagte ein Bahnsprecher in Berlin. Im Regionalverkehr gab es in besonders von Sturmschäden betroffenen Gebieten in Nordrhein- Westfalen und Hessen noch einzelne gesperrte Strecken. Die Deutsche Bahn AG verteidigte ihre Strategie: „Die Sicherheit unserer Passagiere und Mitarbeiter hatte zu jedem Zeitpunkt höchste Priorität“, sagte ein Sprecher am Montag. Am Montag noch Verspätungen Auch auf dem Frankfurter Flughafen gab es am Montag noch Verspätungen. In den Morgenstunden wurden 21 Flüge gestrichen, teilte eine Sprecherin des Flughafenbetreibers Fraport mit. Am Sonntag waren auf dem Airport 242 von 1270 Starts und Landungen ausgefallen. Die meisten größeren Straßen waren bundesweit am Montag wieder befahrbar. In Rheinland-Pfalz jedoch, das die Naturgewalten mit voller Wucht abbekommen hatte, waren noch zig Verkehrswege unbefahrbar. „Es ist eine Menge Holz, die da weggemacht werden muss“, sagte der Sprecher der Kreisverwaltung Trier, Thomas Müller. 280 000 Menschen waren allein in Rheinland-Pfalz von Stromausfällen betroffen. Insgesamt standen in der landesweiten Polizeibilanz: 2220 umgestürzte Bäume, 461 beschädigte Häuser, 383 beschädigte Autos, 455 Straßensperrungen und 119 Verkehrsunfälle. 5400 Sturmeinsätze in Nordrhein-Westfalen In Nordrhein-Westfalen war die Polizei zwischen Sonntag, 13 Uhr und Montag, 5 Uhr zu 5400 Sturmeinsätzen gerufen worden. „Die Meldungen liefen fast im Minutentakt ein“, berichteten die Beamten. Auch die Feuerwehren hatten alle Hände voll zu tun. Neben kubikmeterweise Holz mussten zerfetzte Planen, Dreck und Trümmer von Straßen und Wegen geräumt werden. Der Sturm hatte auch Bahn- Oberleitungen heruntergerissen und Dächer abgedeckt. Alles, was nicht niet- und nagelfest war, flog durch die Luft: Baustellen-Ampeln, Gerüstteile, mobile Toilettenhäuschen, sogar eine Mittelleitplanke. Freuen durften sich die Schüler im osthessischen Hünfeld. Dort gab es am Montag unterrichtsfrei, weil der Sturm eine Realschule und ein Gymnasium stark beschädigt hatte. Auch Aachener Gymnasiasten durften blau machen, weil der Sturm eine Glaskuppel vom Dach schmetterte. Lediglich einen Blick ins Freie bekamen indes Häftlinge der Justizvollzugsanstalt I in Frankfurt-Preungesheim. Der Sturm hatte dort einen etwa sechs Meter hohen provisorischen Gefängniszaun aus Metallplatten und Stacheldraht umgeweht. Mit Maschinenpistolen bewaffnete Beamte bewachten das Loch in der Gefängnismauer. In Müntz bei Jülich in Nordrhein-Westfalen donnerte die Kirchturmspitze der katholischen Kirche St. Peter ins Seitenschiff. „Xynthia“ war in der Nacht die Puste ausgegangen, das Tief zog am Montag nach Osten ab. Der Deutsche Wetterdienst (DWD) warnte nur noch vor Orkanböen auf dem Brocken. Wegen der starken Regenfälle, die „Xynthia“ mitbrachte, steigen die Pegel der Flüsse weiter an - vielerorts droht nun Hochwasser. Text: dpa Bildmaterial: AFP, AP, APN, ddp, dpa, REUTERS

"Xynthia" tobt über Deutschland: Dieses Dach eines Hochhauses im Zentrum von Mainz hielt dem Sturmtief nicht stand© Torsten Silz/DDP Das gewaltige Sturmtief "Xynthia" hat nach Portugal, Spanien und Frankreich auch Deutschland heimgesucht und in allen vier Ländern mindestens 53 Menschen in den Tod gerissen. Die meisten Opfer gab es in Frankreich, wo im schlimmsten Unwetter seit zehn Jahren 45 Menschen umkamen. In Deutschland wurden vier Menschen von umstürzenden Bäumen erschlagen. Es gab zudem zahlreiche Verletzte. Im westfälischen Ascheberg fiel ein Baum auf ein fahrendes Auto auf der Bundesstraße 54. Die 70-jährige Fahrerin erlag noch am Unfallort ihren schweren Verletzungen. Auch in Feldberg-Bärental im Schwarzwald fiel ein Baum auf ein Auto, der 74-jährige Fahrer starb, seine Ehefrau wurde schwer verletzt. Im Taunus wurde ein 69-jähriger Wanderer, der mit einer Gruppe von 20 Leuten unterwegs war, von einem Baum erschlagen. Dasselbe Schicksal ereilte eine Frau beim Nordic-Walking im Rhein-Erft-Kreis. Wie die Polizei mitteilte, war sie trotz des heftigen Sturms in einem Wald in Pulheim bei Köln unterwegs gewesen. Gesamter Zugverkehr in Nordrhein-Westfalen eingestellt In Deutschland wütete "Xynthia" am heftigsten im Südwesten, in Hessen und in Nordrhein-Westfalen. Auf den Bahnstrecken herrschte vielerorts Ausnahmezustand. Im Fernverkehr kam es zu massiven Verspätungen. In Nordrhein-Westfalen stand der Verkehr auf den Schienen am Sonntagabend sogar komplett still. Auch im Saarland stellte die Bahn ihren Regionalverkehr komplett, in Rheinland-Pfalz beinahe ganz ein. Im Raum Stuttgart fiel ebenfals der Bahnverkehr aus, ein Ersatzverkehr über die zum Teil verwüsteten Straßen war nicht möglich. In Hessen saß ein Intercity-Express zwischen Fulda und Hanau mit etwa 800 Reisenden nach einer Kollision mit einem entwurzelten Baum etwa drei Stunden auf freier Strecke fest. Ein ICE auf dem Weg von Berlin nach Basel strandete in Göttingen. Viele Straßen und auch Autobahnen in Baden-Württemberg, NRW und Thüringen waren von entwurzelten Bäumen oder umherfliegenden Gegenständen blockiert. In Frankfurt am Main wurde die A3 gesperrt, eine der wichtigsten Autobahnverbindungen durch Deutschland. In der Stadt waren der Hauptbahnhof und der Bahnhof am Flughafen vorübergehend geschlossen. Mehr als 200 Flüge fielen aus. "Die Bäume knicken um wie die Streichhölzer" In mehreren Bundesländern waren die Rettungskräfte pausenlos unterwegs. "Es ist alles im Einsatz, was fahren und laufen kann", sagte ein Polizeisprecher in Frankfurt. Mobile Toiletten flogen durch die Luft. Bäume stürzten um, Fassadenteile, Material von Baustellen und Werbeplakate wirbelten umher und blockierten Straßen. Bis zu 20.000 Menschen waren in Hessen von Stromausfällen betroffen. Auch in einigen Orten in Rheinland-Pfalz fiel vorübergehend der Strom aus. Im pfälzischen Landau erlitt eine Frau schwerste Verletzungen, als der Sturm ein Eisentor aus der Verankerung riss, das sie gerade schließen wollte. "Die Bäume knicken um wie die Streichhölzer", hieß es von Einsatzkräften in Mainz. Dächer wurden vom Sturm abgedeckt, Baustellen verwüstet. Bei Würzburg in Bayern erlitt ein Mann schwere Quetschungen, als er im Sturm die Arretierung eines Krans lösen wollte. Auch in Nordrhein-Westfalen und in Thüringen richtete "Xynthia" viele Schäden an. "Meteorologischen Bombe" mit Rekordgeschwindigkeit "Xynthia" sei ein Sturmtief, wie man es nicht jedes Jahr hat, erklärte der Deutsche Wetterdienst in Offenbach. Die höchste Windgeschwindigkeit in Deutschland wurde nach Angaben des Wetterdienstes Meteomedia bis Sonntagnachmittag mit 165 Kilometern pro Stunde bei Weinbiet in Rheinland-Pfalz gemessen. Auf der Wasserkuppe in Hessen waren es 141 Stundenkilometer. In Spanien, wo die Wetterexperten von einer "meteorologischen Bombe" gesprochen hatten, hatte "Xynthia" die Rekordgeschwindigkeit von 228 Stundenkilometern erreicht. Dieser am Samstag in der baskischen Kleinstadt Orduña gemessene Wert liegt noch über den 213 Stundenkilometern des Jahrhundert-Orkans Lothar 1999 im Schwarzwald, und ist damit der höchste Wert seit Beginn der wissenschaftlichen Wetterbeobachtung Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts. Der schlimmste Sturm in Frankreich seit 1999 "Xynthia" hatte auf dem Weg in Richtung Deutschland bereits eine Schneise der Verwüstung auf der Iberischen Halbinsel und in Frankreich hinterlassen. Mindestens 49 Menschen kamen ums Leben. Allein in Frankreich starben mindestens 45 Menschen, 59 wurden verletzt. Die meisten Todesopfer ertanken bei Überschwemmungen an der Atlantikküste oder wurden von umherfliegenden Gegenständen erschlagen. Zwölf Personen würden noch vermisst, teilte ein Sprecher des Zivilschutzes am Sonntagabend mit. Es war der schlimmste Sturm in Frankreich seit 1999. Die Windgeschwindigkeiten reichten von 150 Stundenkilometern an der Atlantik-Küste bis zu 200 Stundenkilometern auf den Höhenlagen der Pyrenäen. Hinzu kamen sintflutartige Regenfälle. In mehreren Orten in der Nähe von La Rochelle stand das Wasser bis zu 1,50 Meter hoch in den Straßen, Menschen retteten sich auf Häuserdächer. Mehrere Hubschrauber waren im Einsatz. Wegen überfluteter Gleise war der Zugverkehr in weiten Teilen von Westfrankreich gestört. In Paris fielen zahlreiche Flüge aus oder hatten Verspätung. Zeitweise war etwa eine Million Haushalte ohne Strom. In den Pyrenäen wurde neben Sturm- auch Lawinenalarm ausgegeben. Zuvor war der Sturm auch über die Nordküste Spaniens hinweggefegt. Dabei kamen nach Angaben des Innenministeriums drei Menschen ums Leben. Zwei Menschen wurden bei Arlanzon getötet, als ihr Auto von einem umstürzenden Baum getroffen wurde. In Ourense fiel eine Frau dem schweren Sturm zum Opfer. Ein weiteres Todesopfer gab es in Portugal: Ein zehnjähriger Junge der vor dem Gottesdienstbesuch am Sonntagmorgen Ball neben einer Kirche spielte wurde dabei von einem fallenden Ast erschlagen.

Die Linkspartei im Saarland hat Oskar Lafontaine gleich zweimal zu ihrem Spitzenkandidaten gewählt. Sowohl bei der Landtags- als auch bei der Bundestagswahl führt er die jeweilige Liste an - und will als Ministerpräsident in die Saarbrücker Staatskanzlei einziehen. Saarbrücken - Es gab eine überwältigende Mehrheit für Oskar Lafontaine: Die Saar-Linke zieht mit ihrem Bundesvorsitzenden als Doppel-Spitzenkandidat in die Landtags- und die Bundestagswahl. Die Delegierten wählten den ehemaligen SPD-Chef und Ex-Ministerpräsidenten am Samstag in Saarbrücken mit jeweils rund 93 Prozent auf die ersten Plätze der jeweiligen Landeslisten. DDP Lafontaine in Saarbrücken: Doppel-Kandidat für das Superwahljahr "Das ist ein Auftrag zu kämpfen, um unsere Ziele zu erreichen", sagte Lafontaine. Für den Fall einer Regierungsübernahme kündigte er an, man wolle versuchen, den von der CDU-Regierung verkündeten Ausstieg aus dem Bergbau wieder rückgängig zu machen. Privatisierungen wichtiger öffentlicher Betriebe werde es nicht mehr geben, und man werde versuchen, die Energieversorgung in kommunale Hand zurückzuholen. "Wir wollen hier an der Saar eine politische Erneuerung, und ich will wieder Ministerpräsident werden." Im Saarland wird am 30. August ein neues Parlament gewählt. Lafontaine bekräftigte vor den rund 400 Mitgliedern in einer Saarbrücker Sporthalle den Anspruch der Linken, nach der Landtagswahl gemeinsam mit der SPD Regierungsverantwortung zu übernehmen. "Wir werden diese Zusammenarbeit auch dann suchen, wenn wir nicht stärker werden als die SPD. Wir sind ja keine Spinner", sagte der 65-Jährige. Sollte aber die Linke stärker werden, erwarte er eine Koalition "auf Augenhöhe". Dann gelte der Satz "wer stärker ist, stellt den Ministerpräsidenten". Die SPD schließt eine Zusammenarbeit mit der Linkspartei zwar nicht aus, will aber auf keinen Fall als Juniorpartner in eine Koalition eintreten. Lafontaine kritisierte diese Haltung erneut als "apolitisch". Er betonte: "Ich möchte das Amt des Ministerpräsidenten hier an der Saar ohne Wenn und Aber wieder übernehmen." Der frühere SPD-Politiker hatte schon von 1985 bis 1998 in Saarbrücken regiert. Der Landesverband der Linken hatte Lafontaine bereits auf einem Parteitag im August 2008 zum Spitzenkandidaten gekürt, aber erst jetzt fand die offizielle Aufstellung der Landeslisten statt. Umfragen zufolge käme die Linke derzeit auf 22 Prozent der Stimmen, die SPD auf 23 Prozent. Die Union könnte auf 38 Prozent hoffen. Damit würde der seit 1999 alleinregierende Ministerpräsident Peter Müller seine absolute Mehrheit deutlich verfehlen. Lafontaine griff Müller scharf an. "Dieser Mann hat auf der ganzen Linie versagt." ore/AP/dpa

Oskar Lafontaine Auf dem Landesparteitag in Saarbrücken haben die Mitglieder der Linkspartei Oskar Lafontaine mit großer Mehrheit zum Spitzenkandidaten für die anstehende saarländische Landtagswahl bestimmt. 93,9 Prozent stimmten dafür, ihn auf Platz 1 der Liste zu setzen. Damit ist Lafontaine nun Doppelspitzenkandidat, einerseits bei den kommenden Landtagswahlen am 30. August 2009, andererseits aber auch bei den diesjährigen Bundestagswahlen. Auf dem Parteitag kündigte Oskar Lafontaine an, wieder saarländischer Ministerpräsident werden zu wollen. Das Amt hatte er bereits in der Zeit von 1985 bis 1998 inne. Der neu gewählte Spitzenkandidat der Linkspartei im Saarland forderte die saarländische SPD auf, mit seiner Partei ein Bündnis einzugehen. Die saarländische SPD ist zwar prinzipiell zu einer Zusammenarbeit mit den Linken auf Landesebene bereit, hat es aber abgelehnt, Lafontaine zum Ministerpräsidenten zu wählen. Sie wollten nicht den Juniorpartner innerhalb einer Koalition bilden. Umfragen zufolge käme die Union im Saarland derzeit auf etwa 38 Prozent der Stimmen, die Linken erhielten 22 Prozent und die SPD 23 Prozent. Bei einer Koalition von SPD und Linken würde der seit 1999 alleinregierende Ministerpräsident Peter Müller nicht mehr weiterregieren können.
