Underground: The Julian Assange Story -- Theatrical Trailer

Did Giants Once Live In Underground Cities Across America?

By JacobSloan on December 1, 2013 in News

Mysterious Universe notes that a string of news stories around the turn of the twentieth century reported archaeological discoveries of hidden subterranean habitats and strangely large human remains:

The most famous of these reports appeared in the April 5, 1909 edition of the Arizona Gazette, entitled “Explorations in Grand Canyon.” Explorer G.E. Kinkaid discovered a huge underground “citadel” while rafting on the Colorado River.

Exploring a tunnel that stretched “nearly a mile underground,” Kinkaid found tablets carved with some type of hieroglyphics, and home to a stone statue he described as resembling Buddha. Mummies, all wrapped in a dark fabric, were supposedly more than nine-feet-tall.

The New York Times reported a nine-foot-tall skeleton of a man discovered in a mound near Maple Creek, Wisconsin, in December 1897. The Times also carried the story “Strange Skeletons Found” near Lake Delevan, Wisconsin, in its May 4, 1912 issue. But an April 9, 1885 story entitled: “Missouri’s buried city: A strange discovery in a coalmine near Moberly,” revealed a find that predated the supposed citadel in the Grand Canyon by 24 years.

Coal miners, sinking a shaft 360 feet deep, broke into a cavern revealing “a wonderful buried city,” the article claimed. “Lying beside the foundation (of the fountain) were portions of the skeleton of a human being,” according to the article. “The bones of the leg measured, the femur four and one-half feet, the tibia four feet and three inches, three times the size of an ordinary man.”

UK police bust $1 mn marijuana factory in historic underground nuclear bunker

Published time: November 28, 2013 19:13

The UK police has shut down a large, well-equipped cannabis factory worth over $ 1 million, hidden underground in the historic Drakelow Tunnels, which was used as a shelter for local government back in the 1950s in case of nuclear attack.

The police had to descend deep underground to close down the secret facility, hidden in the tunnels north of the English town of Kidderminster.

A total of 400 cannabis plants, worth around £650,000 (just over $ 1 million) according to preliminary estimates, were seized during the raid, the police said.

The operation, which took place Wednesday morning, involved 30 police officers and staff, including dog handlers.

“While executing the warrant at Drakelow Tunnels, we discovered a large and sophisticated cannabis growing operation,” said Kevin Purcell, North Worcestershire Superintendent, local paper The Shuttle reported. “Although the plants will need to be tested, it would appear that this seizure has prevented a large quantity of illegal drugs ending up on the streets.”

The factory was well equipped, as it had plenty of hydroponic hardware, including heating, lighting and ventilation fans.

Prior to the raid, a 45-year-old man was arrested in Kidderminster on suspicion of money laundering and being involved in the production and supply of illegal drugs. 

The operation was part of a new three-year anti-drug strategy, which the local police began implementing in September, seeking the “reduction of supply and demand achieved through the identification and dismantling of trafficking and dealer networks, and the closure of drug factories or farms.”

The Drakelow Tunnels, dug in the early 1940s, are considered a monument to the UK’s military history.

The underground facility, with a floor space of 23,000 square meters amid tunnels stretching 6 kilometers, was used to produce machine parts during World War II.

In the late 1950s, the UK Home Office turned the tunnels into emergency government offices in case of a nuclear attack.

The current owner of Drakelow Tunnels has recently announced plans to turn the site into a museum.

Police officers were briefed in advance on the historic nature of the venue and the operation was carried out in a way to cause as little disturbance as possible within the complex, Purcell said.

Cannabis remains the most seized illegal drug in England. According to Home Office statistics, 12,267 kilograms of marijuana and 507,401 cannabis plants were confiscated by the police and border service last year.

How Keeping Abortions Underground Makes Health Care Worse for Everyone

Like many African nations, Kenya’s health care system faces many challenges, including severe rates of malaria and HIV/AIDS. But according to a new report published by the Kenyan Ministry of Health, one change could go a long way toward reducing stress on a hugely overburdened system: allowing more women to have an abortion. 

Though Kenyans reconsidered an existing abortion ban when writing their 2010 constitution, the nation’s top legal document still virtually forbids the procedure. Exceptions are only allowed during health emergencies, as determined by a trained health professional (although at least one US congressman was outraged that even these exceptions made it into the final constitution). Yet outlawing abortion has done little, if anything, to reduce the number of procedures. In 2012, the period of the study’s analysis, researchers estimated that Kenyan women underwent nearly 465,000 induced abortions—about 48 for every 1,000 women of reproductive age, well above the estimated rates for both Africa (29 per 1,000) and the world (28 per 1,000).

But keeping abortions underground has led to an incredible rate of complications, putting a strain on an already overburdened health care system. In 2012, almost 120,000 Kenyan women, or more than a third of all women who underwent the procedure, experienced complications. The vast majority of these complications, the researchers found, followed “unsafe abortions” carried out by untrained people or “in an environment that does not conform to minimal medical standards.”

Most of these unintended side effects were quite serious: 77 percent of these 120,000 women suffered complications that were “moderately severe” or “severe,” according to the study. Out of 100,000 unsafe abortions in Kenya today, the researchers estimated, 266 women die. That rate is lower than the World Health Organization’s estimate for all of sub-Saharan Africa (520 deaths per 100,000 unsafe abortions), but far higher than in developed regions, where the rate is estimated to be 30 per 100,000.

Loosening the virtual abortion ban may not end Kenya’s flood of post-abortion complications overnight, but it could save innumerable lives. Kenya’s northern neighbor shows why: In 2004, following an outcry over abortion-related deaths, the Ethiopian legislature decriminalized abortion under certain conditions, such as rape, incest, or when the mother is a minor or has a physical or mental disability. About 27 percent of abortions in Ethiopia are now performed in clinical conditions, and despite lower life expectancy and a lower doctor-patient ratio than Kenya (both measures of overall health care quality), as of 2008, the rate of abortion-related complications in Ethiopia was only 20 percent—still high, but far lower than in Kenya. 

But the real takeaway from this study, and why US states pondering their own supercharged abortion restrictions should pay attention, is how unsafe abortions harm more than just the women on whom they are performed. The researchers estimated that in 2012, more than 119,000 women in Kenya were treated for abortion-related complications. “The treatment of abortion complications uses a large amount of scarce health systems resources,” they write.In other words, unsafe abortions reduce everyone’s access to health care. 

“Improved access to high-quality comprehensive abortion care,” the researchers state, “will not only save lives, but also reduce costs to the health system.”

Amplats workers end underground protest at South African mine

Published June 15, 2013

JOHANNESBURG –  Anglo American Platinum said on Saturday operations at its Thembelani mine in South Africa were back to normal after a “group of employees” on Friday prevented 2,400 workers from going above ground.

“The situation at the mine is normal, people came above ground yesterday evening,” Amplats spokeswoman Mpumi Sithole said.

The industrial action followed the dismissal of four union shop stewards for “inappropriate behavior”.
