Heart Attack in Women and Modifiable Risk Factors

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt



There has been news of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt joining again for the the sake of their kids. The couple shocked the world when they split in September last year.

 Fans of the couple were happy when media reported that they had met face to face and decided to give their relationship another go.

 A biographer for the couple, claimed that Angelina and Brad met in a friend's house and they were moved to tears and decided to get back together.  

However, a celebrity news site, recently reported that Brad Pitt had no intention of reuniting. Last month, there were websites and newspapers reporting that their divorce process was postponed, but sources close to the two stars then revealed that the news was false. So, according to celebrity news site, the latest news about Brad and Angelina's reunion is unwarranted.
Besides, the touching meeting of Brad and Angelina was reported by the Daily Mail . Only a week before the Daily Mail had reported that Brad Pitt is dating Sienna Miller. 
 Also, according to that source, the stars are behaving graciously for the sake of their children, but are not reuniting.

Ethnic cleansing in Myanmar:

Myanmar, earlier Burma, which is predominantly Buddhist, has been slowly indulging in ethnic cleansing. Source: Aljazeera
Before independence, as a British colony, it has been a home to people from undivided Bengal, mostly Muslims, settled in the western coastal area now called Rakhine, who are called as Rohingya, and speak a local dialect of the same name.

Over a period of time, after independence, during which Burma has seen innumerable army coups interspersed with elected governments, through various legislation, the people of Rakhine have been made stateless, denied state funds for development, education etc..

Since 1970 more than 1 million people have fled Burma from Rakhine,




Recently, more people have fled Myanmar into neighboring Bangladesh due to Myanmar army crack in Rakhine Province against Rohingyas . Nearly, 75,000 are living in refugee camps and aid official say camps are facing tremendous pressure as thousands are pouring in every day.

UN suspended food aid to refugees in Myanmar and asked Myanmar to show restraint to avoid catastrophe. International pressure is mounting on Myanmar to stop the genocide. In the days to come UN sponsored talks are likely to bring relief to the affected people and make way for their return to their homes.
