在一堆破损的金属和混凝土中搜救遇难者的工作仍在进行——这是持续到周四早上来自墨西哥城一家妇产科医院的消息 。一辆天然气卡车爆炸摧毁了这家医院的大部分建筑,导致66人受伤 。早些时候的报告称7人死亡,但是墨西哥城官员将死亡人数修正为2——一名女子和一名婴儿 。墨西哥城卫生局长Armando Ahued发表了讲话 。

Officials estimate around a 100 people were at the hospital at the time of the explosion.

路透社经济:美国东北部遭遇重大暴风雪袭击
Blizzard slams Northeast; NYC spared
美国东北部遭遇重大暴风雪袭击
Bostonians are braving the blizzard of 2015. SOUNDBITE: BOSTON RESIDENT JENN SATO SAYING: "She is loving it. I'm doing ok - I'm not feeling as energetic and excited but I mean, I think I'm prepared. I've got my goggles, I've got my five layers of pants and I'm ready to go." Massachusetts got more than a foot of snow from the storm that swept across the Northeast burying cars and side streets. And it's not over yet. Snow is expected to keep falling throughout the day Tuesday. The whiteout conditions perfect for some cross-country skiing. SOUNDBITE: BOSTON RESIDENT NICK FOGEL SAYING: "It's sort of the novelty of being able to ski in the streets and then ski in these areas where you usually see cars packing the roads." In New York City, the storm fell short of dire predictions. Instead of three feet of snow, the city only got about 6 inches. SOUNDBITE: UNIDENTIFIED NEW YORKER SAYING: "Disappointed. I want more. I'm off from work today and I feel like there is no reason for me to be off. So, I'm just going to go to the gym now and just relax at home all day." The underwhelming snow made it easier to clear streets and sidewalks. Despite dodging mother nature's bullet, many businesses and restaurants remained closed. For those who had to venture outside, the snowy conditions weren't all that bad. SOUNDBITE: UNIDENTIFIED NEW YORKER SAYING: "Well this is not a bad one. A bad one was in 1947. That was a big one." New Yorkers spared this time around as their neighbors to the north are dealing with the worst of it.
CCTV9视频:转基因食品将必须添加标签
Labeling of GM food may become mandatory
转基因食品将必须添加标签
A news conference in Beijing by the international non-profit, International Service for the Acquisition of Agri-biotech Applications had reignited the debate over GM foods in China.
To eat or not to eat…the debate over GM food in China continues.
Despite the debate here, globally, 6 million more hectares were added to the cultivation of GM crops last year.
The international non-profit, the International Service for the Acquisition of Agri-biotech Applications says that trend will continue.
"The increase is over 100-fold from the acres we have in 1996 which was 1.7 million hectares, and today is 181.5. That makes it the fastest adopted crop technology in recent history. We are positive; we are convinced that the growth that we’ve seen over the last 19 years will continue," said Dr. Clive James, the founder & Emeritus Chair of ISAAA.
China currently doesn't allow the use of GM technology to grow staple crops. Only GM cotton and papayas are being grown commercially. But it does import several kinds, including soybeans, a major source for cooking oil.
As the debate over GM crops grew heated last year, lawmakers reviewed a proposed revision to the country’s Food Safety Law, including mandatory labeling of all goods containing genetically modified organisms. Some experts think more needs to be done.
"I think the labeling of GM products needs to be improved. China currently requires labeling products that contain GMOs, but I think there should be a maximum level for GMO in foods that can be exempt from labeling, as in most countries. Authorities should work out more details,"
said Dr. Huang Dafang, the Fmr. Director of Biotechnology Research Institute, CAAS.
Authorities in China say the country will be active in research to develop new GM strains, and must not lag behind other nations. But it'll be cautious in promoting it commercially. In response to the public's safety concerns, some think sharing information about GM technology is necessary.
“It's up to the government and public education agencies to assure the public that it is safe. In small country like Singapore we can do the assurance quite easily, it's a small country, but we need information on the assurance, so sharing information is the way we assure the public. But you’ll never be able to convince a hundred percent of the public," said Dr. Paul Teng, Chair of ISAAA Board of Trustees.
The Ministry of Agriculture has said, China will develop GM crops gradually, eventually moving from non-edible to staple crops, and rigid standards will be applied to make sure they are safe.
But some believe, besides protecting the public's right to choose what to eat through clear labeling, there is also work to do to quell the fears of some.
