| Queen jokes that noisy plane 'sounds like President Trump' during cordial chat with Sir David Attenborough Posted: 10 Apr 2018 03:36 AM PDT  In any other circumstance, two 91-year-olds strolling slowly around a garden, complaining about the prevalence of noisy aircraft would hardly be of note. But when that elderly couple happens to be the Queen and Sir David Attenborough, old friends and undisputed national treasures, the nature of their conversation is rather more of interest. As it happened, the pair's genial chatter was marred by the aforesaid overhead din. The Queen could not contain her irritation. "Why do they go round and round when you want to talk?" she pondered aloud. Poking fun at the noisy aircraft favoured by US leaders, she joked: "Sounds like President Trump or President Obama." It is not the first time the monarch has expressed frustration about living under a flight path. Last year, she bemoaned the increasing "noise from the air" that disturbs the peace when she is enjoying the gardens at Frogmore House in Windsor. In a pre-recorded message, she told BBC Radio 4's Gardeners' Question Time: "I very much hope you have enjoyed visiting Frogmore House and garden, which holds a special place in my family affections. "Indeed, I would echo the sentiments of Queen Victoria, who, 150 years ago, wrote of this dear lovely garden where all is peace and you only hear the gum of bees, the singing of the birds. Sir David Attenborough joins Her Majesty the Queen in the gardens of Buckingham Palace Credit: ITV "These days there is more noise from the air than in 1867, but Frogmore remains a wonderfully relaxing environment." Heathrow airport is barely a seven mile drive from Frogmore House and its flight path passes very close to the royal retreat. It was suggested in 2015 that the monarch could receive millions of pounds in compensation to soundproof Windsor Castle due to the noise of planes from an expanded Heathrow. But aside from the noise pollution, the Queen and Sir David clearly revelled in each other's company. The Queen and Princess Margaret leaning against a large tree Credit: ITV The pair, who were born just a month apart, had met after the former agreed to escort Sir David personally around the Buckingham Palace tree collection. Their summer stroll was the culmination of a year's filming that also involved her grandchildren, Prince William and Prince Harry, for the Queen's Green Planet documentary, which follows the progress of a project known as the Queen's Commonwealth Canopy, which aims to create a network of forests around the globe, second only in size to the Amazon rainforest. Sir David admitted that despite their many previous meetings he was a little nervous about the garden walk because "all sorts of things could have gone wrong." Sir David Attenborough joins Her Majesty the Queen in the gardens of Buckingham Palace Credit: ITV "There were problems in that where the palace is, geographically, there are always police sirens and ambulance sirens that make filming difficult," he told the Radio Times. "But she took it all in her stride. It was a privilege of course, a very nice occasion — and she was very gracious. "She is very unsolemn, very good at putting people at their ease." At one point, the Queen teased Sir David because he was struggling to identify the nametags on two oak trees planted to celebrate the births of Prince Andrew and Prince Edward. "The truth was I couldn't find my glasses," he said. The Queen in the gardens of Buckingham Palace Credit: ITV The monarch also chuckled when Sir David pointed out a sundial "neatly planted in the shade". Asked how two nonagarians were still going strong, protecting the planet, he said: "We must be very lucky in our constitutions. "There are very many virtuous people I can think of who can't walk at my age, so it's a matter of luck isn't it?"

Russia's strong investment in layers of air defenses tells us that the Kremlin believes the primary threat to its ground forces comes from U.S. airpower. As such, defeating stealth technology is one of Moscow's top priorities, Kofman notes, and the Kremlin has dedicated a lot of resources to that end.

| China denies moves toward second military base abroad on tiny Pacific island nation of Vanuatu Posted: 10 Apr 2018 12:39 AM PDT  China on Tuesday was forced to deny it wants to establish a military base on the tiny Pacific island of Vanuatu, after reports piqued concern about Beijing's increasing influence in the region. The facility, which would be China's second overseas base, would not only signal a new stage in Beijing's growing military ambition, but also alter the delicate balance of power in the South Pacific. Vanuatu is located about 1,200 miles from Australia. However officials in Vanuatu angrily rejected they had spoken to Chinese officials about the facility, which was first reported in the Sydney Morning Herald. China's defence ministry later said the report "completely did not accord with the facts", while a foreign ministry spokesman described it as "fake news". Australia and New Zealand both said they were monitoring developments. The Herald said the base would be established over a number of years after Chinese ships had already used the island as a base for refuelling and servicing. A Chinese military base in Vanuatu? If true, this would be a troubling turning point in Indo-Pacific security, with an emphasis on the Pacific. I will publish my own follow-up commentary soon https://t.co/xPAgmbQS6t— Rory Medcalf (@Rory_Medcalf) April 9, 2018 The report said: "The prospect of a Chinese military outpost so close to Australia has been discussed at the highest levels in Canberra and Washington." Professor Rory Medcalf, the head of the national security college at the Australian National University, said the most "troubling implication" with a base in Vanuatu is that it "would give China a foothold for operations to coerce Australia, outflank the US and its base on US territory at Guam, and collect intelligence in a regional security crisis". The base "would mark an accumulative and long-term failure of bipartisan Australian policy", he added. The tiny Horn of Africa nation of Djibouti with less than 1 million inhabitants, has become a military outpost for China Credit: Elias Messeret/ AP Australian Foreign Minister Julie Bishop, who visited the island last weekend with Prince Charles, said: "I remain confident that Australia is Vanuatu's strategic partner of choice". New Zealand's Prime Minister, Jacinda Ardern, said: "We of course keep a watching eye on activity within the Pacific." China established its first naval base in the East African nation of Djibouti last year. Officials called the new facility a 'support base' and said it would have mainly logistical functions. However observers see it as a key part of Beijing's plans to expand its global reach through military might. Regional powers - particularly India - are suspicious of China's intentions with the base. China's base in Djibouti was established after Beijing nurtured deep investment links with the tiny nation. China has also been investing heavily in Vanuatu, a country of 270,000 people, and across the South Pacific region. But Vanuatu Foreign Minister, Ralph Regenvanu, said: "No one in the Vanuatu government has ever talked about a Chinese military base in Vanuatu of any sort. Prince Charles visited Vanuatu in April, where he was given a grass skirt to wear prior to receiving a chiefly title Credit: Reuters "We are a non-aligned country. We are not interested in militarisation, we are just not interested in any sort of military base in our country," he told ABC radio. Chinese experts also believe Beijing has no interest in setting up a military base in the remote location. Wei Dongxu, an independent Beijing-based military expert, told The Telegraph: "I think China is seeking to improve local living standards and set up tourist possibilities with its construction work in Vanuatu. It is not trying to risk war with other countries." Additional reporting by Christine Wei

The new single-aisle plane is the latest incarnation of Boeing's 737 MAX series, which can accommodate between 130 and 230 passengers and fly up to 3,850 nautical miles (7,130 kilometres), the companies said in a statement. The order -- the largest to date for the MAX 10 -- was valued at $6.24 billion, although multi-plane deals tend to end up costing carriers less than list prices.

| Syrian government celebrated after targeting and killing journalist Marie Colvin, defector claims Posted: 10 Apr 2018 05:41 AM PDT  The Syrian government celebrated after they targeted and killed veteran war correspondent Marie Colvin, a former Syrian intelligence officer has claimed. Ms Colvin, an American journalist working for the Sunday Times, and French photographer Remi Ochlik were killed by rockets fired at a house they were staying at in the Baba Amr neighbourhood of Homs, western Syria, in 2012. British photographer Paul Conroy, French reporter Edith Bouvier, and Syrian interpreter Wael al-Omar were all wounded in the same attack. The claims were made by the officer in newly released court documents filed as part of a wrongful death suit by Ms Colvin's family. The former intelligence officer, code named Ulysses, provided a detailed account of how Syrian President Bashar Al-Assad's regime sought to capture or kill journalists and activists in Homs, a centre of the pro-democratic revolution that erupted across the country in 2011. Photographer Remi Ochlik was also killed in the strike. Credit: AP The defector claimed that when Ms Colvin's death was confirmed, Syrian Maj. Gen. Rafiq Shahadah exclaimed: "Marie Colvin was a dog and now she's dead. Let the Americans help her now." His account appears to be corroborated by Syrian government documents filed as evidence in the case, which suggest the regime targeted her to silence her reporting on its atrocities. The defector claimed that as an intelligence officer, he reviewed intelligence and surveillance reports from around the country during 2011 and 2012 and was privy to open and secure communications. He currently lives legally in Europe because he fears he is wanted by Syrian intelligence officials. The lawsuit alleges that Syrian forces tracked Western journalists' movements and located their media centre so they could be captured or killed. President Bashar al-Assad's government claimed after the attack that they had not known who was in the house, or that any of the journalists were in the country as they had entered "illegally".

Credit: Syrian official news agency SANA However, the lawsuit alleges that Ms Colvin was in fact being tracked from neighbouring Lebanon after Syrian officials received information that she and Mr Conroy were planning to smuggle into the war-torn country. She was reporting on the Syrian government's bombing of residential areas when she was killed by a rocket attack on a media centre. The pair entered Homs through an underground water tunnel and toured a field hospital and a cellar called the "widow's basement" where mostly women and children sought shelter from the bombs. Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, speaks with Marie Colvin during a service at St. Bride's Church in London. Credit: Getty As part of her reporting, Ms Colvin gave live interviews to the BBC and CNN. Syrian forces were "shelling with impunity and a merciless disregard for the civilians who simply cannot escape," she said. The highest levels of the Syrian government, including President Assad's brother, were behind the plan to track the journalist once she entered Syria, the lawsuit claims, using a mobile satellite interception device that could tap broadcast signals and locate their origin as well as an informant on the ground. As part of his testimony, the defector identified eight Syrian officials, including Mr Assad's brother Maher, who he claims were involved in the attack on the media center.

Credit: Getty "The actual maliciousness that the Syrian regime had against Western reporters and their Syrian counterparts and sources is on display through multiple witnesses and multiple documents," said Scott Gilmore, the lawyer acting on behalf of Ms Colvin's family. Her sister Cathleen is seeking an undetermined amount for the emotional pain of losing her sister, compensatory damages for her three children, who are beneficiaries of Ms Colvin's estate, and punitive damages against the Syrian government. So far, the Syrian government has not filed any response to the lawsuit. At least 100 journalists, most of them Syrian, have been killed in the country since the conflict began in 2011. Ms Colvin's killing came early on in the Syrian civil war, when, as the lawsuit claims, President Assad's regime was trying to silence local and international media "as part of its effort to crush political opposition". A veteran foreign correspondent, Ms Colvin had years of experience reporting in war zones. She covered conflicts in Chechnya, Kosovo, Sierra Leone, Zimbabwe, East Timor and Sri Lanka where she lost the sight in her left eye in a blast. The black patch she wore over her eye became her trademark.

| This week's earthquake cluster is the new normal in Oklahoma. Here's why. Posted: 09 Apr 2018 12:42 PM PDT  A cluster of earthquakes hit Oklahoma over the past few days, unsettling thousands of the state's residents. As of 11 a.m. ET Monday the U.S. Geological Survey says that 2,274 people reported feeling a 4.3 magnitude quake Sunday night. There have been at least 16 noticeable earthquakes (above 2.5 in magnitude) observed by the Geologic Survey since Friday, April 6. While nerve-rattling, the quakes are normal for the area — at least since 2009. That's when the problematic quakes began, Jeremy Boak, Director of the Oklahoma Geological Survey, said in an interview. SEE ALSO: Hey, how about we helicopter grizzly bears into this remote National Park? "It's not out of the ordinary," said Boak. "In the frame of what's been going on, it's normal." Oklahoma's dramatic rise in quakes has been stoked by oil and gas extraction activity in the region. There have been 8 earthquakes with magnitudes ranging from 2.5 to 4.6 between Perry and Covington in northern Oklahoma in the past 24 hours. The latest, having a preliminary magnitude of 4.6, occurred at 7:16 CDT this morning. #okquake https://t.co/JwfpIrHgSb pic.twitter.com/UbqUwya6jX — USGS in Oklahoma (@USGS_Oklahoma) April 7, 2018 This quake activity — associated with the "fracking revolution" that has also propelled historically high U.S. oil exports — comes in two forms. The first is fracking itself, an oil extraction process more formally known as "hydraulic fracking." Broadly, this means injecting millions of gallons of water, sand, and a small percentage of chemicals into a deeply-drilled hole. This breaks apart rocks to release oil deposits, sometimes creating earthquakes. But most Oklahoma quakes aren't caused by fracking itself, but by a secondary process called "wastewater injection." After water is used to fracture apart rocks thousands of feet below, it comes back up as "wastewater," and is usually injected back into the ground nearby (the mixture has to go somewhere). Water is extremely heavy, so, this can put pressure on deep-lying faults. And if enough pressure is applied to these cracks in the Earth's crust, they'll rupture and move, causing sizeable quakes. While a U.S. Geologic Survey spokesperson said it's too early to officially confirm the cause of the northwestern Oklahoma earthquake burst, Boak said it's almost certainly due to wastewater injection. That's the common cause of quakes in this part of northwestern Oklahoma, and generally, has been the prevailing story for years. Earthquakes of 3.0 magnitude or higher measured in Oklahoma as of July 2017.Image: U.S. Geologic survey But, overall, earthquakes have been on the decline in Oklahoma since the especially rattling years of 2014, 2015, and 2016. The year 2015 saw nearly 900 quakes of 3.0 or higher in Oklahoma (around 2.5 or above is noticeable to most people). For perspective, before 2009, Oklahoma usually recorded one or two quakes of 3.0 magnitude or higher each year. By 2015, earthquake activity peaked for a time at around 4 and a half quakes each day, Boak previously said. But this year, Boak expects around 200 noticeable quakes to occur in Oklahoma. This recent cluster of quakes, then, is "part of the continuing pattern which in general is declining," he said. There are two major reasons for the decline, said Boak. One is the falling price of oil. This means that oil and gas extraction isn't quite as lucrative as it once was a few years ago (it's a famously boom and bust industry). Accordingly, there's a bit less fracking activity. Oklahoma resident Lisa Griggs believes cracks in her home have been caused by Oklahoma's manmade earthquakes.Image: The Washington Post/Getty ImagesThe second reason is mandatory state requirements that oil and gas companies find ways to reduce quaking. The rattled citizens of Oklahoma made quite clear to the Oklahoma Corporation Commission, which regulates the gas industry, that the quakes must stop — or at least be limited. "We needed to shut this down and it actually appears to have worked," said Boak. Oil and gas companies accomplish this reduction in a variety of ways, which includes stopping wastewater injections when seismic activity begins. As for Boak, he has still yet to feel one of Oklahoma's big quakes — even though he studies them. He's too far south of most the activity, in the quieter confines of Norman, Oklahoma. "I've never had the privilege of feeling one of the Oklahoma earthquakes," he said. WATCH: Scientists found a weird galaxy without dark matter
