Patna:Indian school lunch deaths: pesticide found, principal arrested...

2013-07-26T01:51:00.000-07:00

An initial forensic report has confirmed that the free school lunch that killed 23 children this week in India's eastern state of Bihar was contaminated with a pesticide, a senior police official said on Saturday.

The children fell ill within minutes of eating a meal of rice and potato curry in their one-room school on Tuesday, vomiting and convulsing with agonising stomach cramps.

The deaths sparked protests in Bihar. The lunch was part of India's Mid-Day Meal Scheme that covers 120 million children and aims to tackle malnutrition and encourage school attendance. It had already drawn widespread complaints over food safety.

The report found the meal was prepared with cooking oil that contained monocrotophos, an organophosphorus compound that is used as an agricultural pesticide, Ravindra Kumar, a senior police official, told reporters.

Police said on Friday they suspected the oil was kept in a container previously used to store the pesticide. They are still looking for the headmistress of the school, who fled after the deaths.

A police official says authorities have arrested the principal of a school in eastern India where 23 children died last week after eating lunch prepared with contaminated oil.

Superintendent Sujit Kumar said a police team investigating the deaths in Bihar state arrested Meena Kumari on Wednesday, nine days after she went into hiding.

Kumari fled as soon as the children began falling ill after eating lunch cooked in the school. Twenty-three children between the ages of 5 and 12 died from eating the meal and many others fell ill.

Forensic tests have revealed that the lunch served to the children contained toxic levels of a deadly pesticide.

Police were questioning Kumari to establish how the pesticide got mixed with the food, Kumar said.

The World Health Organisation describes monocrotophos as highly hazardous.

Man of steel 2013, Directed by Zack Snyder

2013-06-28T02:41:00.000-07:00

Cast : Henry Cavill, Amy Adams,Diane Lane, Russel Crowe, Micheal Shannon, Kevin Costner, Christopher Meloni, Laurence Fishburne, Jadin Gould, Tahmoh Peniket, Ayelet Zurer, Antje traue, Richard Schiff, Dylan Sprayberry, Micheal Kelly.

A young Journalist raised by his adoptive parents after he was transported to earth in infancy from the dying of krypton finds himself in the position to save humankind after Earth is attacked.

An explosion of imagination and visual ingenuity, Man of Steel manages to feel like the future of cinema and an instant classic all at once. It follows the bare bones of the source material, then injects a strong dose of modernity and eliminates the duality between Clark Kent the journalist and Superman. The early reviews for this film are polarized for all the wrong reasons. Something that's been slowly building over the last few years has finally come to a head with reviews of this film. When it comes to big, flashy summer blockbusters, critics have taken extremely negative stances on popular films for the sake of being "above" all the noise. This isn't a film that needs to be dissected and over-analyzed. There's no need to bash it because it doesn't fit a narrow set of bullshit criteria based on past Superman films. It should be enjoyed for the spectacle. It's about being swept up in a beautiful fantasy and forging an emotional connection with a larger than life hero.

It all feels epic because of the technical wizardry behind the scenes, starting with the wonderful score. Seriously, one of the best ones I've heard. It's inspiring, positive, and perfectly complements the serious nature of the narrative and the Superman symbol. The color palette is muted and metallic, underscoring the gravity of the task Superman is faced with and the massive leaps he has to take in terms of character development. I can't stress enough how new this all feels. The tech of krypton, the movements of superman and the bad guys, the way strength is shown visually… there's nothing like it.

The fights and action make sense on more than just a "it makes sense for him to punch him there at this time, and for him to fly across the street if he hits him that hard".This isn't just about the destruction of Earth by an evil villain. It's about the progress of civilized society, the benefits of morality, the need for compassion, and the good that comes from exercising free will.

Man of Steel is also way more science-fiction-y than I expected. I may not be smart enough to definitively decide what's plausible from a factual standpoint, but I could grasp the main concepts and accept the premises laid out more readily than I could the last few huge science fiction films I've seen.

What makes this Clark Kent/Superman character endure? I'd say it's because he's an easy guy to get behind. He has amazing leadership qualities because he was raised by two fathers who were great men with strong principles and idealistic thinking. He also had two incredibly noble, warm, and compassionate mothers. There's a purity and vulnerability that humanizes Superman here, brought to life by a fantastic Henry Cavill and explosive chemistry with an immensely talented Amy Adams. The connection with Lois Lane is more believable here than any other Superman film, mainly because Lois is able to protect and comfort Superman even if he is technically the one doing the mid-air acrobatic rescues. There's parity and balance in their burgeoning relationship, which helps some of the later romantic scenes avoid the usual cheese.

The cast isn't full of just pretty faces and sexy stars. Thankfully, there are no Scarlett Johanssons here to bring the entire production down with lack of depth. The dramatic acting talent and competence draws comparisons to the Dark Knight trilogy. With so much exposition to be delivered, it helps that really great actors are tasked to handle it. Michael Shannon as an angry, single-minded, and ruthless villain is nothing short of brilliant. There is one scene in which he explains himself that is so perfectly sold by Shannon I almost shed a tear for him.

I think the future superman films in this reboot will probably inject more humor and satire into the plot and characterization. At least, I hope they do. It didn't feel missing from here because of the nature of the story.

Man of steel is a wonderful departure from this trend. The main story is straightforward, easy to grasp, and contains the perfect amount of detail. The non-linear editing in which you get flashbacks are sewn in seamlessly, even if they do have rather sudden transitions. Everything fits here. There's nothing superfluous, there's nothing lacking. There is a subtle difference between complex and convoluted stories, and Man of Steel comes down on the right side.

For all of us pet parents, the wagging of a tail that greets you when you get back home is the best part of the day. The wagging of a tail of an orphaned/abandoned or stray puppy on the street when you cuddle or feed him can be just as joyful, if not more...

Don't call them stray! "Stray dogs or Street Dogs" is what they are called.The dogs on the streets are our native Indian pariah dogs that have lived for ages,then why look down on them?? Because they are born on streets?? But do they really have a choice?

You do! You have the power to make them that choice for them that could change their lives forever. Call them as Indian dogs! instead of "stray". They are as Indians as we are and as loving and adorable as any other breed...

They don't choose to be stray, They are made one. Give them a chance...make them a friend for life!

What you can do!!

Treat homeless dogs right.
The Dogs on the streets don't choose to be born homeless, they have no choice.Treating them right is the best thing you can do for them. Educating people to treat dogs right could save many lives from being tortured , beaten and killed ruthlessly. Homeless dogs crave for love and care. They would shower you with tons of love once they gain trust in you.They deserve to live too and they deserve to live a free life with dignity.

Speak up for them, when you see them abused, Do not hesitate, you are speaking for the voiceless.. Be their Friend, Be their Voice...
