Russia, China hold joint war games

By IVAN SEKRETAREV, Associated Press Writer

Fighter jets streaked through the air as Russian and Chinese forces held their first joint maneuvers on Russian land Friday in a demonstration of their growing military ties and a shared desire to counter U.S. global clout.

The war games in the southern Ural Mountains involved some 6,000 troops from Russia and China along with a handful of soldiers from four ex-Soviet Central Asian nations that are part of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, a regional group dominated by Moscow and Beijing.

The drills coincided with a massive Russian air force exercise in which dozens of Russian strategic bombers ranged far over the Atlantic, Pacific and Arctic oceans.

President Vladimir Putin, Chinese leader Hu Jintao and other leaders of the SCO nations attended the exercise, which followed their summit Thursday in the Kyrgyz capital, Bishkek.

The summit concluded with a communique that sounded like a thinly veiled warning to the United States to stay away from the strategically placed, resource-rich region.

"Stability and security in Central Asia are best ensured primarily through efforts taken by the nations of the region on the basis of the existing regional associations," the statement said.

Friday's military exercise involved dozens of aircraft and hundreds of armored vehicles which countered a mock attack by terrorists and insurgents striving to take control of energy resources.

The United States, Russia and China are locked in an increasingly tense rivalry for control over Central Asia's vast hydrocarbon riches. Washington supports plans for pipelines that would carry the region's oil and gas to the West and bypass Russia, while Moscow has pushed strongly to control the export flows. China also has shown a growing appetite for energy to power its booming economy.

Ivan Safranchuk, an analyst at World Security Institute, said Friday's exercise underlined that "the SCO wants to show that Central Asia is its exclusive sphere of responsibility."

Russia's Deputy Foreign Minister Alexander Losyukov denied media allegations that the military exercise was aimed against the United States. "I don't see anything anti-American in the SCO exercise," he said, according to the ITAR-Tass news agency.

Relations between Russia and the United States have worsened steadily amid U.S. criticism of Russia's democracy, Moscow's strong objections to U.S. missile defense plans and differences over global crises.

In a parallel exercise Friday, dozens of Russian strategic bombers flew to the Atlantic, Pacific and Arctic oceans, air force spokesman Col. Alexander Drobyshevsky said. NATO jets were scrambled to accompany the Russian aircraft, he said, according to the ITAR-Tass news agency.

Soviet bombers routinely flew such missions to areas from which nuclear-tipped cruise missiles could be launched at the United States. The maneuvers stopped the post-Soviet economic meltdown, but booming oil prices have allowed Russia to increase its military budget.

The SCO was created 11 years ago to address religious extremism and border security issues in Central Asia. In recent years, with Iran, India, Pakistan and Mongolia signing on as observers, the group has increasingly grown into a bloc aimed at defying U.S. interests in the region.

In 2005, the SCO called for a timetable to be set for the withdrawal of U.S. troops from two member countries, Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan. Uzbekistan evicted U.S. forces later that year, but Kyrgyzstan still has a U.S. base, which supports operations in nearby Afghanistan. Russia also maintains a military base in Kyrgyzstan.

Moscow and Beijing have developed what they call a "strategic partnership" since the Soviet collapse, cemented by their perceptions that the United States dominates global affairs.

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, whose country has SCO observer status, attended the summit for the second consecutive year. Losyukov said the group has no immediate plans to accept full members.

On Thursday, Ahmadinejad criticized U.S. missile defense plans as a threat to the entire region. "These intentions go beyond just one country. They are of concern for much of the continent, Asia and SCO members," he said.

Moscow objects vehemently to Washington's plans to deploy missile interceptors in Poland and a radar in the Czech Republic, saying the system would threaten Russia security. The United States says the missile defenses are necessary to avert the threat of possible missile attacks by Iran.

Two die from overdoses and 83 arrested at New Jersey Ozzfest

August 17, 2007

Two men died and 83 were arrested at the New Jersey PNC Arts center, Holmdel the scene of this year's New Jersey Ozzfest, an annual travelling hard rock and heavy metal show. This year's Ozzfest includes Lordi, Static-X, Lamb of God and the show's namesake, Ozzy Osbourne.

Raymond Guarino, 26, of Forked River, New Jersey collapsed at around 3:15pm and went into cardiac arrest, following which he was resuscitated. He later died in a local hospital. It is believed his death was the result of his consumption of cocaine, marijuana and alcohol. An autopsy will be conducted to confirm the cause of death.

Patrick Norris, 24 of Coram collapsed around 10:00pm and was transported to the same hospital in cardiac arrest; he was pronounced dead on arrival. Police believe he too had consumed a combination of cocaine, marijuana and alcohol.

In addition, New Jersey police arrested 83 people on various drugs and alcohol charges, including underage drinking, as well as charges of drug possession, assault, resisting arrest, defiant trespass and lewd behavior. The arrests are the result of a crackdown started after 13 youths were hospitalised at the venue, the youngest being 11 years old. The crowd at today's event was too large for the 17,000 seat venue to accommodate, due mainly to the decision to make Ozzfest a free event this year.

The New Jersey Turnpike Authority, who own the venue, have imposed a permanent ban on consuming alcohol in the car park of the site. Previously, patrons had been allowed to bring their own alcohol and consume it there.

Police arrested over ninety people on Saturday at an O.A.R concert, and 54 on Friday during an Incubus show. A Velvet Revolver concert is scheduled for later tonight. Over 300 people have been arrested at the site this week.

public school has become embroiled in a row after pupils posted a spoof video featuring them beating, shooting and hunting baseball cap wearing 'chavs'.

Pupils from Glenalmond College, in Perthshire, are seen dressed in full hunting gear and waxed jackets pursuing 'chavs' on horseback, fishing them out of rivers and shooting them with shotguns.

Entitled Class Wars, the hunters toast the hunt with champagne before chasing the chavs, who are wearing Burberry caps, shell suits and trainers.

The footage, filmed on the grounds of the £23,000-a-year school, begins with a pair of 'aristocrats' fishing a 'chav' from a river before beating him with a stick.

Then a group are chased by a pair of huntsmen on horseback and when one 'chav' is finally caught he is prodded with a stick while a hound sniffs around.

And it finishes with a spectacular 'shoot' after 'chavs' are flushed into open ground by beaters and gunned down with double-barrelled shotguns.

 

[The Ozzman]

If only they did that to real chavs...

 

[The Heartbreak Kid]

Awesome.

Margaret F. Bonafide of the Asbury Park Press reports: Raymond Guarino, one of two people who died of possible overdoses while attending an Ozzfest concert at the PNC Bank Arts Center on Thursday, was a "sweetheart" who overcame a difficult early life, according to his fiancée and her family.

Guarino, 26, was to be married within the next year to Sabrina Brown, 20, of Forked River. They had been living in the Sunrise Boulevard home of Gina Brown, 46, and her son, Raymond, 22.

Authorities are investigating whether Guarino's death, as well as the death of a 24-year-old Long Island, N.Y., man, are drug-related. At 3:15 p.m. Thursday, troopers and paramedics responded to a first-aid call for a man who collapsed at the Holmdel arts center. The man, later identified as Guarino, was transported to Bayshore Community Hospital, where he died at 11:25 p.m., according to State Police.

Guarino had gone to Ozzfest on Thursday while his fiancée went to work. That afternoon, Gina Brown got a call that Guarino had been hospitalized. The Browns went to the hospital, where Guarino was on life support and had multiple cardiac arrests. They learned about 11 p.m. that Guarino had died.
