‘Jungle Book’ Rules Over ‘The Huntsman: Winter’s War’

LOS ANGELES - Disney’s “The Jungle Book” showed in 64 territories for an international serious traction at the North American box office, dominating total of $80.2 million. In China, “The Huntsman” moviegoing for a second straight weekend with $60.8 million opened in third place with $11.1 at 4,028 locations. The family-friendly tentpole declined only 41% from its opening frame and left Universal’s launch of “The Huntsman: Winter’s War” in the dust with $20 million at 3,791 locations. “The Jungle Book” posted the best second weekend of 2016, topping the $56.5 million second frame for “Deadpool,” and will wind up the weekend with $191.5 million after ten days -- already the fourth-largest 2016 title behind “Deadpool” at $361 million, “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice” at $319 million and “Zootopia” at $316.4 million. Internationally, the results are equally impressive with an additional $96 million and a decline of only 32% from the prior weekend for an international total of $337 million and global cume to date of

$528 million. “The Jungle Book” is the highest-grossing Hollywood release in India with $28.8 million and is less than $3 million short of the $100 million mark in China. “The Huntsman: Winter’s War,” starring Chris Hemsworth, Jessica Chastain and Charlize Theron, debuted at the low end of forecasts in North America with $20.1 million amid mostly downbeat reviews and a B+ CinemaScore. The audience was 61% female and 53% under 30. The prequel to 2012’s “Snow White and the Huntsman” carries a price tag of $115 million, so the studio will need a strong international performance to break even. “The Huntsman: Winter’s War” had already opened in 27 foreign territories last weekend and added 37 more for a weekend of $32.1 million

million at 5,932 sites behind the second week of “The Jungle Book” and a local film. The first “Huntsman,” starring Kristen Stewart as Snow White, was a solid box office performer with a $56.2 million opening weekend in the U.S. on its way to a $155 million domestic total, plus another $241 million overseas. Paul Dergarabedian, senior media analyst with ComScore, noted that the new “Huntsman” had been hit by tough reviews while the original benefited from Stewart’s participation while she was starring in the “Twilight” franchise. He added that the sterling performance by “The Jungle Book” signals strong continued moviegoing in the upcoming weeks with Disney-Marvel’s “Captain America: Civil War” launching on May 6. (rtr)

ABIDJAN - Congolese rumba music legend Papa Wemba died after collapsing on stage in the Ivory Coast in the early hours of Sunday morning, according to the private morgue where his body was taken. Wemba, born in 1949, was performing at the FEMUA 2016 festival when he collapsed on stage. Videos posted online showed the artist falling on his back mid-song before band members rushed to his side. He died before reaching hospital, a spokesman for the Ivosep morgue in Abidjan said. Known in the Democratic Republic of Congo as the King of Rumba Rock, Wemba’s career began in the late 1960s. He became a staple of African music over the following decades, involved in bands including Zaiko Langa Langa and later Viva La Musica that reached audiences across the world. He was known for mixing traditional African music with western rock and worked with international stars including former Genesis singer Peter Gabriel. “Papa Wemba is a golden voice, an artist who has established himself through his work. The proof is that he died on stage,” said the Minister of Culture and Arts of the DRC, Baudouin Banza Mukalay Nsungu. Fans and colleagues paid their respects over social media and in person on Sunday. Eric Didia, a promoter of Congolese music in Ivory Coast and friend of Wemba who was at the Ivosep morgue on Sunday morning, said Wemba will long be remembered. “I do not know if this is a loss for African music, because the music does not die. People can listen to Papa Wemba songs in 50 years, in 100 years,” he said. Born Jules Shungu Wembadio Pene Kikumba in what was then the Belgian Congo, he moved to Europe in the 1980s, taking his band Viva La Musica with him. He faced trial in France in 2004 for smuggling people into Europe claiming to be band or crew members, and spent a short time in jail. Papa Wemba was also known for his taste for designer clothes, heading a flamboyantly-dressed organization called the Society of Tastemakers and Elegant People, known as Sapeurs, in Kinshasa. “He is our papa,” said Eddy Kilonda, a young man on the verge of tears in Matonge, the district of Kinshasa where Papa Wemba began his career. “He was not only a musician. He taught us to dress properly, to be stylish.” (rtr)

Opportunities Still Open for hospital businesses

D E N PA S A R Based on the World Health Organization’s original recommendations, there should be 1 hospital bed available for every 1,000 residents. However this ratio has now shifted to 1 bed for every 500 residents. “This means that hospitals need more and more beds”, said healthcare expert, Dr.I Gede Wiryana Patra Jaya. According to the 1: 1,000 ratio, Bali with its population of 4.5 million would need 4,5000 hospital beds. “Currently Bali has somewhere closer to 2,500 available hospital beds. Therefore opening up new hospitals would be a good idea” said Dr. Jaya who the received the Denpasar Marketers (in the field of health) award in 2015. Renato Etac via AP

The center will include senior ministers and military and police chiefs and will be designed to respond quickly to situations that could have a “strategic impact”,

chief security minister Luhut Pandjaitan told reporters. “We hope this will be (operational) as soon as possible,” he said. Since coming to power in 2014, Widodo has placed maritime security for the Indonesian archipelago high on his government’s agenda. Indonesia has voiced fears that a surge in piracy in the waters between Indonesia and the Philippines could reach Somalian levels and has told vessels to avoid danger areas.

TAUZIA Hotel Management Becomes the Official Hotel Sponsor

Hospital... The problem is that at the moment, hospitals in Bali are concentrated in Denpasar and South Badung, leaving the rest of Bali in need of health care facilities. The average population per district is 400,000 people, so each district should have at least 400 hospital beds. Presently there are only about 175 hospital beds per district, so there is certainly a wide-open opportunity for hospital businesses to open in the rest of Bali, he explained. “According to necessity there is are business opportunities in terms of building hospitals, but because existing hospitals are not evenly distributed throughout the island, it gives the impression that there is tight competition”, said Dr Jaya said. Not only are most hospitals concentrated in South Bali, but doctors are too. However as more and more medical specialists graduate, this could change. The requirements for building hospitals are very stringent and include needing to have medical specialists onsite who can provide medical services. “For example, type B hospitals must have at least one obstetrician, one gynecologist and a pediatrician, he explained.

A nurse is injecting the patient. The availability of health officers is one of the main requirements to uild a hospital

There are no restrictions on the number of hospitals that can open in any given area. However certain requirements do need to be met, including those related to; environmental permits, building permits, environmental impact analysis (Amdal), human resources and facilities. Anyone wanting to open a new hospital needs to have relevant human resources available such as doctors and nurses but also other medical specialist. Apparently, filling the requirement of having medical specialists on hand is a common obstacle for private investors wanting to open new hospitals. Chief of the Tabanan Health Agency, Nyoman Suratmika, explained that the need for health care services has increased since the national health insurance (JKN) came into effect. During transitional seasons, when infectious diseases such as dengue are more widespread, the extremely limited number of hospital beds in both private and public hospitals becomes apparent. There are three hospitals in Tabanan that provide the JKN services; Dharma Kerti Hospital, Kasih Ibu Hospital and Wisma Prasanthi Hospital. Suratmika added that, investors looking to build new hospitals in Tabanan needs to be

well versed in hospital management in order to avoid the common pitfalls. All too frequently new hospitals cannot run their operations due to poor management and inability to recruit medical specialists. “In order to run as a type D hospital, there needs to be at least 2 medical specialists on duty, otherwise their status is not hospital but clinic”, explained Suratmika. Such a downgrading of status happened to a hospital in Pupuan after their management was unable to provide the necessary human resources to qualify as a type D hospital. “They had to have their status downgraded to clinic”, said Suratmika. In another case a hospital in Kediri Tabanan had to close down altogether because not only could they not meet the human resource requirements but the hospital was also poorly managed. According to Suratmika, there remains a great need for medical specialist in Bali. Doctors are restricted from working in more than three places”, he said. Suratmika added however that in the case of a medical specialists whose expertise is rare on the island, there is the possibility of working in more than three places provided they obtain a recommendation from their local health agency.

Astronaut runs marathon in space, but slower than on earth INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION - British astronaut Tim Peake became the first man to complete a marathon in space on Sunday, running the classic 26.2 mile distance while strapped to a treadmill aboard the International Space Station. As part of the London Marathon, Britain’s biggest mass participation race, the 44-year-old spaceman saw London’s roads under his feet in real time on an iPad as, 250 miles below him, more than 37,000 runners simultaneously pounded the streets. Peake covered the distance in three hours 35 minutes 21 seconds, which was a world away from the time recorded by the real race winner, Kenya’s Eliud Kipchoge, whose 2:03:05 was the second fastest ever recorded. Peake’s zero gravity effort, while out of this world, was still more than a quarter of an hour slower than the 3:18:50 he had clocked on earth as a keen, ultra-fit fun runner back in 1999. On a six-month stint on the ISS, the astronaut had been the official starter too, sending the runners a good luck video message from the station in the 10-second countdown to the race that concluded: “I hope to see you all at the finish line.”a He also tweeted a photograph of England’s capital from space accompanied by the message: “Hello #London! Fancy a run? :)”. Then, it was down to business, using elastic straps over his shoulders and around his waist to keep him in contact with the running belt in weightless conditions as he ran. (rtr)

Hundreds of parekan and permas

Participate in ‘sampian war’ at Samuan Tiga Temple

GIANYAR - Three days after the peak of the Panca Wali Krama ritual at Samuan Tiga Temple, in Bedulu on Sunday (Apr. 24), hundreds of local residents conducted a unique traditional ritual called siat sampian or sampian war using young coconut leaves. This traditional temple ritual is part of a larger ceremony and also symbolizes the fight against adharma (unsuitable behaviour such as crime).

cific Ocean while sleeping only 20 minutes at a time inside the plane’s tiny cockpit with no heat or air conditioning and while having to keep constant contact with the Europe-based control center. “You have interviews, navigation control, communications with the control center in Monaco. You have health checks, a lot of health checks,” Piccard said. “It’s very active, there are a lot of things to do, but you can nevertheless enjoy it.” Piccard said he uses self-hypnosis to keep his energy up and puts heating pads inside his shoes and gloves for warmth. He said he has no complaints about the ready-made meals he can warm up with a special heat packet and that can include risotto, chicken curry and potatoes. On Sunday, special guests, many of them with Google, which is sponsoring the project, had a first look at the plane inside a huge white tent at Moffett Airfield. The guests also mingled and took photos with Piccard and fellow Swiss pilot Andre Borschberg. Piccard landed the Solar Impulse 2 in Mountain View, in the Silicon Valley south of San Francisco, on Saturday night following a 62-hour, nonstop solo flight from Hawaii without fuel. The landing came hours after Piccard made a fly-by over the Golden Gate Bridge as specta-

tors below watched the narrow aircraft with extra wide wings. Piccard and Andre Borschberg have been taking turns flying the plane on an around-the-world trip since taking off from Abu Dhabi, the capital of the United Arab Emirates, in March 2015. It made stops in Oman, Myanmar, China, Japan and Hawaii. The trans-Pacific legs were the riskiest part of the plane’s travels because of the lack of emergency landing sites. “We have demonstrated it is feasible to fly many days, many nights, that the technology works” said Borschberg, 63, who piloted the plane a five-day trip from Japan to Hawaii and who kept himself alert by doing yoga poses and meditation. The project has helped to show that “as a human being you can be sufficiently sustainable to be able to fly at least five days in such a plane.” The aircraft faced a few bumps along the way. The Solar Impulse 2 landed in Hawaii in July and was forced to stay in the islands after the plane’s battery system sustained heat damage on its trip from Japan. The team was delayed in Asia, too. When first attempting to fly from Nanjing, China, to Hawaii, the crew had to divert to Japan because of unfavorable weather and a damaged wing. (ap)

The siat sampian procession was preceded by a nampyog in which 60 permas (female devotees) hold hands as they circle around the temple’s middle courtyard in a gently swaying dance walk. “Residents of Bedulu commonly refer to the nampyog as the Sutri Dance”, said Chief of the Samuan Tiga Assembly, I Wayan Patera. The Nampyog is conducted three times and is then followed by the ngober nyambung. In this procession, a white shawl is tied around the waists of the permas. “The end of the long shawl is gently held by the person behind you”, he explained. After the ngober nyambung procession, there is the maombak-ombakan, where 360 of the parekan (male devotees) hold each other as they circle around the coutyard letting out cries as if possessed and some of the men try to grasp the sacred shrines in the temple. These processions are accompanied by gamelan music to encourage the parekan and permas to start the siat sampian. At the climax, all the male devotees throw sampian (prepared from young coconut leaves) aggressively at one another in symbolic warfare for approximately 15 minutes. “After the siat sampian, all the parekan (male devotees) bathe in the local sacred springs in order to purify themselves. In the evening the Pangeremekan Karya is held” explained Wayan Patera. The siat sampian, he added, can only be conducted by the temple parekan and permas and is interpreted as a purification rite for the micro and the macrocosm, visualized as the battle between opposing forces such as good and evil. “Sampian (young coconut leaf) is a most suitable means for expressing this tradition, as it is the final phase in the growth of the plant as the siat sampian is the final phase of the male devotees offering in this ritual. Also, the sampian symbolizes the weapon that Lord Vishnu’s uses to combat adharma (evil) on the earth” said Patera. As part of the Panca Wali Krama ritual ceremony at the Samuan Tiga Temple, the local deities will receive the devotees worship (nyejer) for 11 days after the culmination of the ritual. (kmb35)

Netting waste in Tukad Mati

BMP builds trash rack worth IDR 16 billion MANGUPURA - To optimize waste screening in Mati River around the Sunset Road, Kuta, the government of Badung through the Highways and Irrigation (BMP) Agency will develop a rotary trash rack worth IDR 16 billion. Currently, it remains in bidding process in the Electronic Procurement Service (LPSE). The Irrigation Division Head at the Badung Highways and Irrigation Agency (BMP), A.A. Gede

Dalem, when confirmed on Sunday (Apr. 24) justified the matter. Installation of the new device will be used to change the previous screening device whose condition is considered less worthy. Other than being not practical in terms of usage, the waste screening device is often crowded especially when the intake waste comes in large quantities. “We recognize the current screening device is less than

optimal. It still needs people to handle, where if the waste comes in large number it must be taken by hand,” he said. Tender of the project has been opened to the public since April 20, 2016 and will close on April 29, 2016, and so far there are approximately 17 partners showing their interest. A.A. Gede Dalem explained the device can work more automatically. It is just like the one in the city of Surabaya.

“So, from the screening, taking and transportation of waste to garbage truck is done automatically by the machine. Thus, it is more practical,” he said. According to him, with the new device, the officers just need to monitor. After the trash has been put into the garbage truck, here is a human help is needed to bring the garbage to the landfill. He hoped that after the signing of the contract agreement with the

executing agency of the project, within 6-7 months it must have been finalized. “Clearly we hope it can be operated this year because the presence of trash screening device is crucial to maintain the sanitation of Mati River,” he said. By that way, A.A. Gede Dalem said that when the garbage comes in large numbers, it will not make the region of Sunset Road flooded. (kmb27)

BANGLI - Serokadan customary village, Apuan, Susut, is not only famous for its natural and pristine potential. The area adjacent to Apuan village also has a cultural heritage in the form of Candri Manik Temple and a number of the other arts remaining to survive amid this global era. Armed with this potential, the chief of Serokadan customary village, I Dewa Gede Oka, intends to initiate a cultural tourism. “We want the existing potential can be packed into cultural tourism,” he said, Sunday (Apr. 24). He said that the attractions spreading across a number of areas remain to rely on natural beauty as attraction to draw tourist visit. If this continues, it can potentially cause saturation of travelers. Therefore, it needs a new breakthrough and innovation, one of which is by combining with the natural potential with the local culture owned. “Now, Bangli tourism seems monotonous. When establishing cultural tourism, it will have a good opportunity,” he said. Further, Dewa Oka added if cultural tourism can be applied, then the benefited will not only be the tourism players alone. However, the artists or art studios can also get income. “If all the components are embraced, prosperity will not only be attained by one group of society. The others will also enjoy the impact. Community-based economy will develop,” he said. He added that to realize this idea is not just enough attempted by the community alone. Government support is also required where one of them is the provision of guidance on human resources. “We hope that the government can be more sensitive to see the potential in the area. Do not just rely on natural potential. Tourism extension also needs to be routinely held,” he said. (kmb45)

The 16-year-old boy was arrested near his Sydney home on Sunday and appeared before a children’s court on Monday. Court documents show that police accuse the boy of attempting to obtain a gun, Australian Associated Press reported. The case was adjourned until Tuesday, AAP said, and the boy cannot be named because of his age. The terrorism offence carries a maximum penalty of life imprisonment. New South Wales state Police Commissioner Andrew Scipione said police believed the boy was acting alone. “We have taken swift action to ensure community safety on the eve of a sacred day on the Australian calendar,” said Scipione. ANZAC Day, April 25, is a major annual holiday in Australia and New Zealand marking the first major battle involving troops from both countries during World War One at Gallipoli in Turkey. Despite the campaign’s failure against Ottoman Turkish forces, with the loss of more than 11,000 ANZAC lives, it has come to be viewed as a formative moment of national identity in both Australia

and New Zealand, and is now a day of remembrance for military dead from both nations in all subsequent conflicts. Dawn services and military parades were held around Australia and New Zealand, with the largest drawing tens of thousands of people in Sydney and Melbourne. At Sydney’s Bondi Beach, Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull joined more than 5,000 people at a beachside dawn ceremony. “We choose to stand as one in a moment of silent contemplation, in tribute to those who fought and died so that we could live in freedom,” Turnbull said later at a ceremony at the Australian War Memorial in the capital, Canberra. Several teenagers have been arrested in Australia in recent years and charged with terrorism offences, including five young men who police alleged were planning an attack at last year’s centenary ANZAC day celebrations in Melbourne. Police said those planning the attack last year clearly took inspiration from the Islamic State movement, also known as the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria, or ISIS. (rtr)

TOKYO - Japanese Foreign Minister Fumio Kishida, speaking ahead of a visit to Beijing, said on Monday China was making the world “worried” with its military buildup and maritime expansion in the East and South China Seas. Ties between China and Japan, the world’s second- and third-largest economies, have long been plagued by a territorial dispute, regional rivalry and the legacy of Japan’s World War Two aggression. China and Japan dispute sovereignty over a group of uninhabited East China Sea islets, while in the South China Sea, Beijing is building islands on reefs to bolster its claims. China has rattled nerves with its military and construction activities on the islands in the South China Sea, including building runways, though Beijing says most of what it is building is for civilian purposes, like lighthouses. “Candidly speaking, a rapid and opaque in-

crease in (China’s) military spending and unilateral attempts to change the status quo in the East and South China Seas under the aim of building a strong maritime state are having not only people in Japan, but countries in the Asia-Pacific region and the international community worried greatly,” Kishida said in a speech to business leaders. China claims almost the entire South China Sea, believed to have huge deposits of oil and gas. Brunei, Malaysia, the Philippines, Taiwan and Vietnam also have claims to parts of the waters, through which about $5 trillion in trade is shipped every year. Kishida plans to visit China as early as Japan’s “Golden Week” extended holiday, which starts on Friday. “Through candid dialogue with the Chinese side, I want to get the wheel turning to create the Sino-Japanese relations that are suitable for a new age,” he said.

The fund had projected in October that oil exporting countries in the region would see revenue losses of $360 billion in 2015, but oil prices took a tumble by year’s end and the drop in revenue amounted to $30 billion more. In a revised economic outlook report released Monday, the IMF said these countries will see revenues from oil exports drop even more in 2016, to between $490 billion to $540 billion compared to 2014, when oil prices were higher. Oil prices plunged to around $30 a barrel in January compared to $115 in mid-2014. IMF Director for Middle East and Central Asia Masood Ahmed said these losses translate into budget deficits and slower economic growth, particularly for countries like Saudi Arabia that are still heavily dependent on oil to finance their spending. Though the kingdom has been working on plans to overhaul its economy, oil still accounted for 72 percent of total revenue last year and Saudi Arabia projects a budget deficit of nearly $90 billion this year. The report said that economic growth in the six Gulf Cooperation Council countries of Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain, Oman and the United Arab Emirates will slow

from 3.3 percent in 2015 to 1.8 percent this year. Saudi Arabia, the region’s biggest economy, will see growth at just above 2 percent. The IMF has encouraged reforms that would limit public spending on welfare programs and handouts that citizens in the Gulf have become accustomed to, such as lifting subsidies and tightening public sector wage bills to offset the impact of declining revenues. Already, most GCC countries have raised fuel, water, and electricity prices. Outside the GCC, oil exporter Algeria recently hiked fuel, electricity, and natural gas prices, and Iran increased fuel prices. “Oil prices are likely to improve from where they are, but they’re not going to go back to the figures that we saw in 2013 and 2014 for a long, long time, so this means that many of them have to cut back spending and they also have to try to raise revenue outside the oil sector,” Ahmed told The Associated Press. The IMF warns that just among oil exporters in the region, 10 million young people are expected to enter the workforce by 2020, yet 3 million of them will find themselves without jobs at the current pace of development. Young people’s frustration at their lack of prospects was a key driver of the Arab Spring uprisings

that rocked the Middle East in 2011. The report said the war in Syria has had a negative spillover effect on the economies of neighboring Jordan and Lebanon. From October and March alone, more than 600,000 people fled Syria due to the fighting, bringing the total number of refugees to almost 5 million. The size of Syria’s economy today, the IMF said, is less than half of what it was before the war erupted in 2011. In Egypt, political turmoil has held back growth due to concerns over security. However, lower oil prices have reduced energy subsidy bills there. Though Iran’s growth was at zero in 2015, its economy is expected to grow 4 percent in 2016 and 3.7 percent in 2017 as it ramps up oil production and looks to increase trade and investment with the easing of international sanctions.(ap)

Fires in Banceuy prison leads to Rp6 billion losses: Minister

JAKARTA - Justice and Human Rights Minister Yasonna Laoly stated that fires in Banceuy prison in West Java Provincial city of Bandung caused Rp6 billion of state losses. “The losses reach more than Rp6 billion due to unrest,” the minister told the press at his office here on Sunday night. Minister Laoly said some parties of the prisons and inmates disagree with the Eradication Operation against Drug Syndicate (Bersinar), which later triggered riots and fires in Banceuy prison.

“The Bersinar operation caused some prison (certain personnel) unease, because the operation disrupted the interests of both internal parties and inmates. But we will not stop (the operation),” he stressed. The minister further said his personnel will continue combating the drugs abuse and the use of mobile phones in the prisons. According to him, police personnel have secured the (prison location) and imposed emergency response for one week. The Banceuy prison caught fires on Saturday morning.(ant)

Car bomb near Damascus kills six people BEIRUT - A car bomb on the outskirts of the Sayeda Zeinab district south of Damascus killed at least six people on Monday, a monitoring group said, the third bombing attack in the area this year. Lebanese group Hezbollah’s Al Manar television reported the blast had occurred at a Syrian army checkpoint. The death toll was expected to rise because of the number of people with serious injuries, the British-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said. Multiple explosions in February killed scores of people in the Sayeda Zeinab area, home to Syria’s holiest Shi’ite Muslim shrine, in one of the bloodiest attacks there in Syria’s five-year conflict. A suicide attack there less than a month earlier claimed by ultrahardline Sunni Muslim group Islamic State killed 70 people. (rtr)

Tatyana Chernyavskaya, 65, poses for a photograph in her flat which was evacuated after an explosion at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, in the ghost town of Pripyat, Ukraine April 18, 2016. For residents of Chernobyl, a three-day evacuation turned into a thirty-year exile.

Former Chernobyl residents take a bittersweet visit home

PRIPYAT - For residents of Chernobyl, a three-day evacuation turned into a thirty-year exile. On the morning of April 26, 1986, no one could yet tell that a meltdown in reactor 4 of the nuclear plant in then-Soviet Ukraine was poisoning the air with so much deadly radioactivity that it would become the world’s worst nuclear accident. Now, as some survivors returned to their hometown of Pripyat on the eve of the anniversary, memories of confusion and sacrifice abound. “I barely found my apartment, I mean it’s a forest now - trees growing through the pavement, on the roofs. All the rooms are empty, the glass is gone from the windows and everything’s destroyed,” said Zoya Perevozchenko, 66. She only realised something might be wrong that day 30 years before when her husband, Valeriy, didn’t come back from his night shift as a foreman at the stricken reactor. She left her apartment in Pripyat, a model Soviet town built in the 1970s to house Chernobyl workers and their families, to look for him. “I remember thinking ‘Goodness it’s hot’ and some people were in masks. But they didn’t explain things to us straight away, it was all secret. And the kids were running

about barefoot in the puddles,” she said. She found her husband in a local clinic. He had received a fatal dose of radiation that had burnt the skin on his face bright red. He was airlifted to Moscow for treatment, but died 45 days later - one of the 31 to die of acute radiation sickness in the immediate aftermath of the disaster. Perevozchenko and her two young daughters ended up in Kiev, where they still live. Returning to Pripyat, she found it hard to reconcile the memories of her life there with the derelict ruins of a town abandoned for three decades. Elena Kupriyanova, 42, was only 12 when she was evacuated from Pripyat, which lies in the 2,600 square km (1,000 square mile) ‘exclusion zone’ that has remained largely uninhabited by law since the disaster. “It’s very painful that so many peo-

ple’s (lives) were destroyed, that such a beautiful, new town was abandoned. It’s hard on the soul,” she said. Her family and most of the town’s 50,000 other residents were transported out of the area in buses on April 27 and told to pack only the bare essentials because they would only be away for three days. They took their documents and a small suitcase. “It was so hot, such beautiful weather. All the fruit trees were in bloom and I thought - what do they mean ‘radiation’? It’s so nice outside, you can’t see anything,” Kupriyanova said. What irks Valentina Yermakova, 64, is that many of the belongings they left behind have disappeared. While it is forbidden to remove anything from the radioactive zone, a large amount of portable items have been smuggled out by illegal trophy-hunters and scrap-dealers. (rtr)

BRUSSELS - Brussels’ Maelbeek metro station, a target in the attacks last month that killed 32 people, reopened on Monday under high security. Standing guard outside and on the platforms, armed soldiers and security from Brussels’ transport network patrolled the station near European Commission headquarters, where on March 22 a bomb was detonated on a rush-hour train, killing 16 people. The blast came after suicide bombers had earlier struck Zaventem airport departure lounge in attacks claimed by Islamic State. Commuters who returned to Maelbeek for the first time since the attacks on Monday morning were visibly moved. “My heart is beating fast, I’m not feeling okay,” said passenger Hanane Attar, who felt the blast in her office above the station on the day of the attacks. “It’s quite emotional, very emotional.” Many stopped to read messages such as “All together” and “The greatest of all is love” written on a wall left by victims’ families and survivors, who had visited the station in private. The attacks in Brussels, home to the European Union and NATO headquarters, came four months after attacks in Paris killed 130 people. Links have been identified between the suspects in the two attacks. (rtr)

Resurgent Nadal beats Nishikori to reclaim Barcelona crown

Rice Terrace where Bukit is means hill, meanwhile Jambul is means crest. This place become famous because it was inspired by the most amazing scenery with rice terrace, winding road underneath and palm trees stretching to the sea. Bukit Jambul Rice Terrace is located at Pesaban traditional village, Nongan village, Rendang district. It is approximately 8 kms from Klungkung regency to the north, and about 51 kms from Denpasar or 15 kms from Besakih. Take about 1,5 hours drive away using vehicles or 30 minutes to Besakih Temple that is famous called by Mother Temple. When we take the direction from Kerta Gosa, we just take 30 minutes away to the north side until we found the windy road. So, this place is very easy to be located because it is located in the strategic location just beside of the main road from Klungkung to Besakih Temple. (IBP/net)

BARCELONA - Rafael Nadal maintained his ominous claycourt form by seizing back the Barcelona Open title from Japan’s Kei Nishikori with a 6-4 7-5 victory on Sunday, matching Guillermo Vilas’s record title haul on the surface. A week after reclaiming the Monte Carlo crown, the 29-yearold Spaniard returned to another of his favourite hunting grounds to end Nishikori’s two-year hold on the trophy and take his tally in the Catalan capital to nine. “I have been working so hard to enjoy moments like this,” Nadal said. “The fact that I’m playing at home is always even more special. I’m very happy and I feel lucky to enjoy this again.” Playing with the kind of authority that once made him almost unplayable on European clay, Nadal looked poised for a comfortable victory when he led 4-1 in the second set but Nishikori broke back to make Nadal dig deep. The Spaniard would not be denied, though, sealing victory after two hours when Nishikori slapped

a forehand into the net. “It was a very close match,” Nadal said. “There were a lot of chances for both of us but I think I have been solid.” Nadal, who will target a 10th French Open title next month, had not won back-to-back titles since 2013. He and former Argentine great Vilas have both won 49 claycourt titles and Nadal will be confident of edging ahead when he moves on to Madrid and Rome before Roland Garros. (rtr)

Detroit Pistons forward Marcus Morris (13), forward Stanley Johnson (3) and forward Tobias Harris (34) fight for a rebound during the fourth quarter against the Cleveland Cavaliers in game four of the first round of the NBA Playoffs at The Palace of Auburn Hills.

The Cavaliers completed a sweep of the best-of-seven series and advanced to the Eastern Conference semifinals, where they await the winner of the series between the Atlanta Hawks and Boston Celtics that is tied at two games apiece. Irving clearly is hungry and healthy at the moment, as he averaged 27.5 points in the series and outscored teammate LeBron James, who averaged over 22 points a game in the series. “This postseason is what we have been preparing for,” Irving said. “It’s been a pretty good postseason so far.” Just as in Games 1 and 3 in the series, Detroit hung with Cleveland for the entire game, but the Cavaliers had too much firepower and experience in the fourth to be denied. After Detroit cut a nine-point Cleveland lead to 97-96 with 1:08 remaining on a 3-pointer by Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Irving buried a 3-pointer from the wing with 42.6 seconds left to put the Cavaliers up by four. Pistons guard Reggie Jackson shaved the Cleveland lead to 100-98 on a dunk with 32.8 seconds remaining, and then Detroit had a chance to tie or win after rebounding an Irving miss with under 10 seconds remaining. Proceeding down the court without a timeout, Jackson couldn’t convert a contested 3-point shot from the top of the key as time expired. Jackson, who was guarded by Irving, pleaded with the officials for a foul, but to

no avail. “I just think the refs need to have some type of system with fines and suspensions, just like us,” Jackson said. Cleveland took an 81-78 lead into the fourth quarter after Irving hit a shot from half-court just before the buzzer sounded to end the third. He then scored the first five points of the fourth to give the Cavaliers an 86-78 lead with 11:15 remaining. Detroit answered with a 7-0 run to cut its deficit to 86-85 with 8:35 left, but Cleveland took a 95-86 lead with 4:54 remaining on a deep 3-pointer by J.R. Smith. A 3-pointer from Tobias Harris and a Marcus Morris basket pulled Detroit back within 95-91 with 3:44 remaining. Following a basket by James, Jackson scored with 2:31 left to bring Detroit within 97-93. Ultimately though, the Cavaliers drew on the fact their roster had significantly more playoff experience than Detroit’s did. “We said this would be a great experience for our guys, and it really has been the past five or six weeks of the season fighting to get in,” Pistons coach Stan Van Gundy said. “We have played in a lot of pressure basketball games. We do have to get better, there’s no question.” James had 22 points and 11 rebounds, and Smith scored 15. Forward Kevin Love contributed 11 points and 13 rebounds, and reserve guard Matthew Dellavedova also had 11 points for Cleveland, which will now prepare for a long layoff waiting for Atlanta or Boston.

Man City need leap of faith against Real Madrid LONDON - Until this season Manchester City’s progression in the Champions League could be measured in baby steps but on Tuesday they can make a huge leap forward when they host Real Madrid in their first European semi-final for 45 years. The Abu Dhabi-backed English club have already broken new ground this season, moving past the last 16 stage that proved their limit for the past two seasons having failed even to survive the group stage prior to that. In seeing off Paris St Germain, who have similar financial muscle, in the quarter-finals they delivered a powerful statement of intent to reach their first semi-final since a European Cup Winners’ Cup defeat by Chelsea in 1971. They also kept alive the intriguing possibility of a Milan final against Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich, whose manager Pep Guardiola will take over the Manchester City hot seat from former Real Madrid manager Manuel Pellegrini next season. First, however, City’s defence

must find a way of keeping Cristiano Ronaldo, Gareth Bale and Karim Benzema quiet at their Etihad Stadium so as to arrive at their opponents’ Santiago Bernabeu fortress with something tangible to hang on to. Ronaldo has scored 47 times this season, including 16 in just 10 Champions League appearances, but Pellegrini says he knows how to stop the Portuguese goal machine. “I knew all about him from (my team) playing (against) Manchester United when I was at Villarreal,” Pellegrini said. “We played them four times in the Champions League and each time it was 0-0, so defensively we must have been doing something right.” UNSTOPPABLE REAL

While City’s recent form has been on the rise, if a little late to stop

the Premier League’s fairytale title hunters Leicester City, Real have been almost unstoppable of late as they try and chase down Barcelona in La Liga. Since the beginning of March Zinedine Zidane’s side have won nine La Liga games in a row and even when they suffered a hiccup in a 2-0 defeat by Wolfsburg in the Champions League quarter-final they responded with a 3-0 home victory. The Wolfsburg loss gives City cause for optimism, though, and with their Argentina striker Sergio Aguero and Belgium midfielder Kevin De Bruyne finishing the season with a flourish, Real’s defence will be given a testing examination. Aguero, who recently reached the 100-goal milestone in the Premier League, never finished on the win-

Leicester winger Mahrez voted England’s player of the year ning side against Real while he was at Atletico Madrid and he will be itching to put the record straight against the 10-times European champions. Wales forward Bale has, however, warned City that Real, who are appearing in their 27th European Cup semi-final, will seek to inflict some damage before finishing the job next week. “I think that the most important thing is to score away from home, said Bale, who scored twice as Real came back to beat Rayo Vallecano 3-2 in La Liga at the weekend. “At the Santiago Bernabeu we are very strong and, obviously, we’ll have a lot of chances. As long as we don’t lose there, we’ll be very confident at the Bernabeu.”(rtr)

Rooney hopes to emulate Scholes in United midfield role Manchester United captain Wayne Rooney hopes to emulate the successful transition of former club team mate Paul Scholes from an attack-oriented player to a creative midfielder. With younger and faster talents coming through, including the likes of strike duo Anthony Martial and Marcus Rashford, Rooney has acknowledged he may have to drop deeper into midfield from his preferred centre forward position. Manager Louis van Gaal deployed the 30-year-old England captain in a midfield role to good affect in the FA Cup semi-final victory over Everton on Saturday and Rooney was confident he had the ability to cope with the change. “I’ve known for a few years. I have played there a few times throughout my career and I can play that position. I have played and watched Paul Scholes play that role for years,” Rooney told British media after the 2-1 win. “I always knew that one day that is where I would play, so I have tried to learn and watch what he did. It is still early days, but hopefully, if I keep playing there, I can develop and get better,” he added. “We have got a lot of pace in the team now and I think I can read the game quite well... whether to go forward or stay deeper and leave the space for the other lads.” Champions League-berth chasing United, who are fifth in the standings and five points off the final qualifying spot, host leaders Leicester City at Old Trafford on Sunday.(rtr) AP Photo/Kirsty Wigglesworth

Manchester City’s Sergio Aguero

LONDON — Leicester winger Riyad Mahrez became the first African to be named English football’s player of the year on Sunday, straight after the Algerian helped his team close in on the Premier League title. Mahrez was flown by helicopter to the Professional Footballers’ Association ceremony in London after scoring his 17th goal of Leicester’s astonishing title charge as the leaders beat Swansea 4-0 at the King Power Stadium in central England. Mahrez was on a six-man shortlist including Leicester teammates Jamie Vardy and N’Golo Kante for the vote of their fellow professionals in English football. “I’m very grateful to receive this award,” Mahrez said. “It’s extra special because if the players vote for me, it’s because they’ve seen I’ve been great this year, so I’m happy. But it’s more team things. Without my teammates I wouldn’t get this award.” The 25-year-old Mahrez is only the second winner of the PFA award from outside England. Uruguay striker Luis Suarez won it in 2014 while playing for Liverpool. Unlike Suarez, Mahrez was an unknown when he moved to England two years ago, joining Leicester from second tier French side Le Havre for less than 500,000 pounds (then about $820,000). The transfer now seems one of the best bargains ever in English football, where the record fee is the 59.7 million pounds (then $99 million) that United paid for Angel Di Maria in 2014 before selling the winger the following year. Mahrez has provided inventiveness and flair to Leicester’s attacking play, contributing not only goals but also 11 assists to help transform a team that fought for Premier League survival last season. Now a guaranteed starter, Mahrez was an unused substitute this weekend a year ago when Leicester beat Burnley to finally escape the relegation zone. Leicester started the season as a 5,000-1 title outsider but is now set to become English football’s first maiden championship

winner since Nottingham Forest in 1978. “The secret has been team spirit,” Mahrez said. “We work so hard for each other. We are like brothers, it’s everywhere on the pitch. That’s our strength. “If sometimes we are not good, we know we are going to run and make the effort for our teammates.” The team, which is owned by Thai duty free retail giant King Power, will be guaranteed the Premier League trophy by winning two of its remaining three games. Only Tottenham can now deny Leicester the title. The secondplace London team is eight points behind ahead of Monday’s game against West Bromwich Albion after also mounting a surprise

title bid. A Tottenham player picked up the PFA ceremony’s second-biggest accolade after 20year-old midfielder Dele Alli was voted young player of the year.

Buffon stops penalty as Juventus puts title within reach ROME — Gianluigi Buffon saved a late penalty and Juventus took a big step toward a fifth consecutive Serie A title with a 2-1 win at Fiorentina on Sunday. If Napoli fails to win at Roma on Monday, Juventus will have sealed the Italian league championship with three matches to spare. If Napoli wins, Juventus needs only one more point to seal it. Substitute Alvaro Morata scored the winner, seconds after Nikola Kalinic had equalized for Fiorentina late in the second half. Buffon then stopped Kalinic’s spot kick in the 90th. “We’re not cheering for anyone,” Morata said of Monday’s game. “If we win (the league), it’s because we deserve to.” His winner came on a rebound after Milan Badelj cleared off the line. “We won also thanks to Buffon, who is superhuman,” Morata said. Mario Mandzukic had put Juve ahead with a volley in the first half after being set up by Sami Khedira and Paul Pogba. “It was important to get a positive result today,” Juventus manager Massimiliano Allegri said. “Winning in Florence is not easy.” Kalinic earned a penalty for a debatable foul by Juan Cuadrado and had his poor spot kick blocked by Buffon, who at 38 is having one of his best seasons. Last month, Buffon broke a 22-year-old Serie A record by not conceding a goal for 974 consecutive minutes. In a frenetic finish, Kalinic hit the crossbar with a header from close range in stoppage time. In the first half, Fiorentina protested over a goal that was ruled out for offside, with replays showing that Federico Bernardeschi was onside when he

put the ball in the net. Juventus moved 12 points clear of Napoli, while Fiorentina remained fifth. Earlier, Palermo won 2-0 at Frosinone to boost its chances of avoiding relegation in a turbulent season featuring nine coaching changes. Alberto Gilardino put Palermo ahead with a header early in the second half and Macedonia international Aleksandar Trajkovski sealed the result in stoppage time with a solo counterattack. In 18th place, Palermo is level with 17th-place Carpi on points ahead of Carpi’s match against Empoli on Monday. Palermo hadn’t won in exactly three months, since a 4-1 victory over Udinese on Jan. 24. “We showed that we’re still alive,” said Gilardino, a member of the Italy squad that won the World Cup a decade ago. “Now we’ve got three finals to play.” Davide Ballardini was rehired earlier this month for his second stint in charge of Palermo this season. Counting caretakers, Palermo has had seven different coaches this season: Giuseppe Iachini (twice), Ballardini (twice), Fabio Viviani, Guillermo Schelotto, Giovanni Bosi, Giovanni Tedesco and Walter Novellino. Palermo president Maurizio Zamparini has made almost 60 coaching changes in 29 years as a club owner, first at Venezia and then at Palermo. Frosinone is 19th, two points behind Carpi and Palermo — with the bottom three in the 20-team league to be relegated. Last-place Hellas Verona is 10 points from safety ahead of its match against AC Milan on Monday. Three rounds remain.(ap)
