Wild Rumors of Sinked Nuclear Submarine In Sweden

0
In social media and on multiple sites spread information about the Russian nuclear submarine TK-208 Dmitry Donskoy is sinking at the Swedish coast.
The rumor - that can be traced back to a tweet in Russian from a civil rights activist named Pavel Sjechtman - are associated with the ongoing military operation in the Stockholm archipelago.
Carl Bergqvist, who runs the blog defense Wiseman's Wisdoms, asserts emphatically that the data do not contain any substance.
Armed Forces on duty press officer Day Enander says:
- The idea of ​​a Russian nuclear submarine would sink in or just outside the Swedish Swedish water is a grave speculation.
On Sunday, it started to spread information about the Russian nuclear submarine TK-208 Dmitry Donskoy is sinking off the Swedish coast.
The Polish site Polskie Radio , as well as Russian and Ukrainian websites Rusjev and Gordonua,reported on the data and put it in the context of the large Swedish military operation in the archipelago.

Activist

The rumors of the Russian nuclear submarine can be traced to the Russian twittraren Pavel Sjechtman . Sjechtman describe themselves as civil rights activist, ecologist, historian and member of the environmental movement "Save Khimki Forest" on Twitter.
He tweeted on Sunday:
"Just now called an acquaintance from the Northern fleet staff. Upon the coast of Sweden flag" Dmitry Donskoy ". Putin gives no help. As with the Kursk."
Tweet had late on Sunday night, almost 700 retweets. Kursk was a Russian nuclear submarine that sank in the Arctic Ocean in 2000, when 118 crewmen perished.
Carl Bergqvist, who runs the blog defense Wiseman's Wisdoms , claims that the data contain any substance.
- This submarine belongs in the Arctic Ocean and to shoot nuclear missiles against the United States. It is impossible that it is in the Baltic Sea, he said.

Great as a baltic

Dmitry Donskoy is approximately 170 meters long and around 26 meters high, compared to the cruise ship Silja Europa is 202 meters long and 53 meters in height.
- These nuclear submarines are large as aircraft carriers. That it would get through the Sound without being detected is not reasonable, said Carl Bergquist and adds:
- To my knowledge, there has never before been inside nuclear submarines in the Baltic Sea.
Armed Forces on duty press officer Day Enander said that the Armed Forces are aware that there is speculation in social media and on websites and taking note of the information.
- I am convinced that you have accessed the data, but I'm not ready to assess the extent of it, but I am convinced that you have read the information spread in social media, he says.
If the data on the large Russian nuclear submarine, he says:
- We have no information about the submarine is sinking. The idea of ​​a Russian nuclear submarine would sink in or just outside the Swedish Swedish water is a grave speculation. It is pure speculation task that shows up in some social media. It's not where we work and act now.
What is the Armed Forces that it is much speculation in social media and on other types of sites?
- We let be rumors and speculation and stick to what we know and what is said.

Red Bull Dont't Gives You Wings

0

Red Bull Have To Pay 13 Million Dollars for False Advertising.

Red Bull GmbH agreed on Thursday to pay more than $13 million to settle a proposed class action lawsuit that alleges false advertising of its energy drinks, according to Law360.

If the proposed settlement is passed by the court, Red Bull would be required to pay $6.5 million into a settlement fund within seven days.

The settlement could include millions of individuals who purchased at least one Red Bull can over the past 10 years, offering class members the option of a $10 cash reimbursement or two free Red Bull products with an approximate retail value of $15 (Red Bull would cover shipping costs).

Red Bull sent BevNET an email with the following statement:

“Red Bull settled the lawsuit to avoid the cost and distraction of litigation. However, Red Bull maintains that its marketing and labeling have always been truthful and accurate, and denies any and all wrongdoing or liability.”

The plaintiff representing the class, Benjamin Careathers, said he had been drinking Red Bull since 2002 as part of the lawsuit he filed on Jan. 16, 2013 in U.S. District Court of the Southern District of New York. The suit argues that Red Bull misleads consumers about the superiority of its products with its slogan “Red Bull gives you wings” and its claims of increased performance, concentration and reaction speed, to name a few. This deception is proliferated through the company’s advertising on television, the Internet, social media and events, athlete endorsers, glossy print brochures, marketing campaigns and its slogan-promoting Red Bull Flugtag series, according to the suit.

“Such deceptive conduct and practices mean that [Red Bull’s] advertising and marketing is not just ‘puffery,’ but is instead deceptive and fraudulent and is therefore actionable,” the suit says.

The class action cites articles by The New York Times, Nutrition Reviews and the European Food Safety Authority Journal, which indicate that energy drinks provide their boost through caffeine alone, not guarana or any other ingredient.

The suit says that a 7 oz. cup of drip coffee contains approximately 115 to 175 milligrams of caffeine, depending on the blend, and a 12 oz. serving of Starbucks coffee costs $1.85 and “would contain far more caffeine than a regular serving of Red Bull.” An 8.4 oz. can of Red Bull contains 80 milligrams of caffeine.

“Even though there is a lack of genuine scientific support for a claim that Red Bull branded energy drinks provide any more benefit to a consumer than a cup of coffee, the Red Bull defendants persistently and pervasively market their product as a superior source of ‘energy’ worthy of a premium price over a cup of coffee or other sources of caffeine,” the suit says.

Despite Red Bull’s denial of wrongdoing, the company has voluntarily withdrawn and revised marketing claims challenged in court, according to the plaintiff’s motion.

Plaintiffs David Wolf and Miguel Almaraz made similar allegations in a lawsuit filed in California federal and later transferred to New York, Law360 writes.

29 Years Old Sick Woman Plans To Die In Three Weeks (Sad Story)

0
Stories like this make you realize your life doesn't suck so bad after all ..... 

Brittany Maynard a 29-year-old woman with terminal brain cancer carries a prescription in her wallet. It was written by a doctor in Oregon, one of five states with legal protections for terminally ill patients who want to end their suffering. In three weeks, she plans to use it to die.

For the past 29 years, Brittany Maynard has lived a fearless life – running half marathons, traveling through Southeast Asia for a year and even climbing Mount Kilimanjaro. So, it's no surprise she is facing her death the same way.

On Monday, Maynard will launch an online video campaign with the nonprofit Compassion & Choices, an end-of-life choice advocacy organization, to fight for expanding death-with-dignity laws nationwide.

And on Nov. 1, Maynard, who in April was given six months to live, intends to end her own life with medication prescribed to her by her doctor – and she wants to make it clear it is NOT suicide.

"There is not a cell in my body that is suicidal or that wants to die," she tells PEOPLE in an exclusive interview. "I want to live. I wish there was a cure for my disease but there's not."

Maynard has a stage 4 glioblastoma, a malignant brain tumor. "My glioblastoma is going to kill me, and that's out of my control," she says. "I've discussed with many experts how I would die from it, and it's a terrible, terrible way to die. Being able to choose to go with dignity is less terrifying."

The campaign's six-minute video includes interviews with Brittany as well as her mother, Debbie Ziegler, and husband, Dan Diaz, 42.

"My entire family has gone through a cycle of devastation," she says. "I'm an only child – this is going to make tears come to my eyes. For my mother, it's really difficult, and for my husband as well, but they've all supported me because they've stood in hospital rooms and heard what would happen to me."

Maynard was a newlywed when she started having debilitating headaches last January. That's when she learned she had brain cancer."My husband and I were actively trying for a family, which is heartbreaking for us," she says in the video.

Three months later, after undergoing surgery, she found out the tumor had grown even larger and was told she had, at best, six months to live. After researching all her options after her diagnosis, Maynard, who was living in San Francisco at the time, decided aid in dying was her best option.

Her entire family moved with her to Portland earlier this year so she could have access to Oregon's Death with Dignity Act, which has been in place since late 1997. Since then, 1,173 people have had prescriptions written under the act, and 752 have used them to die.

Four other states – Washington, Montana, Vermont and New Mexico – have authorized aid in dying. Compassion & Choices has campaigns in place in California, Colorado, Connecticut, Massachusetts and New Jersey.

In mid-October, Maynard will videotape testimony to be played for California lawmakers and voters at the appropriate time.

"Right now it's a choice that's only available to some Americans, which is really unethical," she says. 

"The amount of sacrifice and change my family had to go through in order to get me to legal access to death with dignity – changing our residency, establishing a team of doctors, having a place to live – was profound," she says.

"There's tons of Americans who don’t have time or the ability or finances," she says, "and I don't think that's right or fair." 

This is why she's using the precious time she has left to advocate for everyone to have the same choice she does.

"I believe this choice is ethical, and what makes it ethical is it is a choice," she says. "The patient can change their mind right up to the last minute. I feel very protected here in Oregon."

But Maynard doesn't think she will change her mind. The date she picked was carefully chosen.

"I really wanted to celebrate my husband's birthday, which is October 26," she says. "I'm getting sicker, dealing with more pain and seizures and difficulties so I just selected it."

Maynard says her exhaustion has "increased a lot" recently.

"I still get out and take a walk with my family everyday," she says. "I try not to hold onto the dogs anymore because the past few weeks I've fallen a few times."

Her pain has increased, too, but so far she's been managing it with medications from her doctors.

"I was in the hospital two weeks ago after two seizures," she says. "Immediately after, I lost my ability to speak for a few hours. So it's scary, very frightening."

Which is why she knows she's making the right decision. 

When Maynard passes on Nov. 1, she will do so in the bedroom she shares with her husband. By her side will be her mother, stepfather, husband and best friend (who is also a physician).

"I'm dying, but I'm choosing to suffer less," she says, "to put myself through less physical and emotional pain and my family as well."

We wish you and your family well.
