- Colombia coalmine explosion kills at least 16 workers
At least nine workers were killed in the same mine last AugustA coalmine explosion in north-west Colombia believed to have been caused by a build-up of methane gas killed at least 16 miners and left dozens trapped for more than 10 hours, President Álvaro Uribe said today. The explosion on Wednesday night in Amagá, Antioquia, led to the collapse of part of an access tunnel. The director of Colombia's state mining institute, Mario Ballesteros, said the mine passed an annual safety check last month. The owner of the mine, Carbones San Fernando, did not immediately comment. At least nine workers were killed in the same mine last August.Colombiaguardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2010 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More Feeds

- This Prison Where I Live – review
A brave documentary about a jailed Burmese comedian that is unfortunately stymied by the very censorship it is seeking to attack, writes Cath ClarkeThe thinness of this documentary about the imprisoned Burmese comedian Zarganar is miserable proof of the ruling junta's iron grip. Zarganar, a hugely popular figure in Burma, was jailed in 2008 for 35 years after speaking out against the government's response to cyclone Nargis. Anti-establishment to his bones, as a young stand-up he was summoned to perform in front of the prime minister – with a warning to steer clear of politics. He walked on stage with sticky tape over his mouth. There is a glimpse of him in footage shot by director Rex Bloomstein before his arrest, and Bloomstein returns to Burma undercover to investigate. But they can't get anywhere near Zarganar, and the friends and colleagues they arrange to interview won't speak – even passers-by flinch from the camera. There's surely an interesting film in here somewhere, but the amount of padding and mooching about makes it a bit of a fruitless enterprise.Rating: 2/5DocumentaryBurmaCath Clarkeguardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2010 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More Feeds

- Road of Bones by Fergal Keane | Book review
Peter Preston is moved by the horror and heroism of a little-known second world war battleIt was already a road of death in 1942, as thousands of British, Indians and fellow travellers fled Rangoon, hounded by bandits, after the Japanese took Burma. It was a road of carnage in March 1944, as 15,000 men from the 31st Infantry Division of Japan's Imperial Army marched up it, bent on taking Kohima, the gateway to India, and then bearing down on the crucial allied supply centre at Dimapur. And it was a road of bones – unburied bodies piled high, carcasses stripped clean by animals – as the famished, exhausted remnants of this mighty invasion force staggered back to Burma and ultimate surrender.Most of the big battles of the second world war have been analysed to exhaustion. But the siege of Kohima, a sleepy little hill town on the peripheries of the Raj, a nowhere-in-particular place that nobody bothered to protect until it was almost too late, has been all but forgotten. This is an epic story of the unfamiliar, which begins with benevolent deputy district commissioners playing tennis, as young lady anthropologists from Roedean study native art nearby. It goes on to reveal the tennis court strewn with corpses, while one of the anthropologists, Ursula Graham Bower, leads a band of Naga fighters through the forests to harry the Japanese.These are not cartoon heroics, though. Fergal Keane operates masterfully on three levels, setting this, the last military stand of British empire, in a far wider campaign context (and confirming Bill Slim's reputation as the best wartime general the British had). He views much of the conflict through the eyes of those, on both sides, who fought until they dropped: their personal testimony – Japanese as well as British – is still vivid, compell ピータープレストンは、恐怖とあまり知られて第二次世界戦争battleItの英雄で移動さはすでに1942年に死の道として、英国、インドや仲間の何千もの旅行者がラングーンを脱出、した盗賊でしつこく追跡される、日本人がビルマを取った後
- Disappearing Eid dishes
The festival of Eid al-Fitr makes Tania Ahsan wonder which complex traditional dishes will disappear with the older generation's passing. Which lost family recipes fill you with nostalgia?Today (all moon sightings being equal) is Eid al-Fitr, one of the most enjoyable dates in the Islamic calendar. My parents are having a big party and my mother will be making two traditional dishes that take a significant amount of time and effort to make. The first is nihari, a very slow cooked, spicy, soupy dish of beef shank and bone marrow. My mother begins an intricate and esoteric haggling dance with local halal butchers a week before the nihari is due to be made. She is after bones, big marrow-stuffed shin bones, to boil up and extract the marrow to add to the dish later. Butchers have got wise to the demand from Asian households around special occasions for these bones and have started saving them and charging a little something for them. However, my mother gets them for free because, for shame, who would charge for bones?Nihari takes around six to seven hours to make, depending on how much meat you're cooking up. It is cooked very slowly over a medium to low flame by simmering the meat (after having sealed it) in plenty of water for ages and ages. The whole day is a procession of smells emanating from the kitchen. It begins with the less than entirely appetising smell of the boiling bones and then, once the spices are added, a gorgeous warming stew aroma starts to fill the house. It makes your mouth water and, once ready, the meat just falls away in strips into the broth and you use big fluffy, doughy naans to soak it all up and savour the meaty, spicy, hearty goodness. To follow the nihari and maybe some chana dal and bhaingan, the dessert will be rasmalai, a which takes a me 断食明けの祭りは、複雑な伝統料理は、古い世代の通過で表示されなくなりますタニアアサンの不思議になります

- In praise of … fossil footprints | Editorial
Polish discovery reveals that the ancestors of all birds were small, light and four-footedFossil footprints have a special place in scientific research. They are testimony to bygone life in action. New research today in a journal gnomically known as Proceedings of the Royal Society B reveals that dinosaurs were alive and scuttling about the planet millions of years before the first evidence from fossilised bones. Sets of footprints beautifully preserved in the mountains of Poland confirm that pioneers of the lineage were already afoot in the Triassic around 250 million years ago, soon after the calamitous Permian extinction that wiped out 90% of life on Earth. Fossil footprints freakishly preserved in ancient mud provide concrete evidence of the size, gait and identity of their makers. These tracks, the largest no more than 40mm, were made by little creatures now called dinosauromorphs, ancestors of the birds. A set of ancient hominid footprints preserved 3.6 million years ago in volcanic ash in Laetoli, Tanzania, are so clear that palaeontologists have been able to argue that they might have been made by a couple, perhaps holding hands. The world changed for Daniel Defoe's Robinson Crusoe when a naked human footprint in the sand showed that he had company on his desert island. Every footprint tells a moving story, and the Polish discovery reveals that the ancestors of all birds were small, light and four-footed. Like some Hollywood disclaimer, the footprints also assure us of another comforting thing: no dinosauromorphs were injured in the making of this picture.DinosaursFossilsZoologyEvolutionPolandguardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2010 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More Feeds

- The Expendables: get out the body bags | Stuart Heritage
Stallone's latest could be full of the consequence-free bloodshed and stupid dialogue of the 80s' best action movies. I can't waitWonderful news. The Expendables – the deliriously stupid-looking film about Sylvester Stallone and Jason Statham and Jet Li and Eric Roberts and Mickey Rourke and Arnold Schwarzenegger and Dolph Lundgren punching things until they explode – will not be toned down to appease the censors. There had been a rumour from the film's producer himself that a more family-friendly edit could be tested with audiences, but that has now been officially dismissed by Lionsgate. It means that, if you go to see The Expendables, you'll basically be subjecting yourself to a constant barrage of bullet-holes and broken bones and pointlessly macho full-volume swearing.This isn't just good news for anyone with high hopes for The Expendables, it's good news for everyone who makes action films. Hopefully it'll even spark a resurgence of the preposterously violent mainstream action film. You know the sort. A one-man army. A consequence-free bloodbath every couple of minutes. A series of profane non-sequiturs masquerading as dialogue. A title that refuses to make sense no matter how hard you stare at it. Films like The Running Man or Bloodsport or Cobra. If you were a child growing up in the 1980s, these were more than just films. These were rites of passage. In my school, for example, you were a boy until you knew how to convincingly perform a playground mime of the acid death sequence from Robocop from memory. That's the point where you would become a man.Yes, this sort of action movie does still exist, but it's been marginalised. All the modern-day examples tend to star minor WWE wrestlers, go straight to DVD and appear to have a budget of about 12p. For a film to re スタローンの最新の80。。u0026#39;最高のアクション映画の結果フリー流血と愚かな対話のフルことができます

- The Empire Strikes Back: Indian Art Today | Visual art review
Saatchi Gallery, LondonThe Empire Strikes Back is a wet punch. One might expect Charles Saatchi to show just the sorts of things that are presented: a stuffed camel in a suitcase, a taxidermied dog morphing with a furry vacuum cleaner, photographs of veiled women whose burkas turn out to be pixelated with tiny porn shots, yet more of Subodh Gupta's over-familiar sculptures made from cooking utensils, a black medical cot piled high with tarry mattresses that breathe wheezily to the power of compressed air. There are painted gags about Jasper Johns, dystopian jokes about technology, including a rattling old Xerox machine with half its gubbins missing, and an army of figures made from old floor lamps, neon tubes, discarded bits of plumbing. I see a GCSE-level art project coming on.This isn't to say that The Empire Strikes Back is all bad. Some pieces are worse than bad, others just obvious. A speech by Gandhi spelled out in bones adds nothing to any argument. It just took a long time to make. T Venkanna's reworked versions of Douanier Rousseau are fun and sexy, and so is Chitra Ganesh's cartoon of a liberated Indian superwoman. Rashid Rana's pixelated view of an endless sea of rubbish is queasily beautiful, and – best of all – Yamini Nayar's photographs of half-abandoned rooms take us somewhere strange and oddly threatening.A lot of the work looks exoticised for the gallery, the artists playing up their post-colonial otherness as a gimmick, rather than making art of substance. This exhibition gives us no clearer view of the art of a subcontinent than did a recent Serpentine gallery exhibition. There's also no film or video – areas where some of the best work is made.Until 7 May.
