In one nine hundred eighty and was the first woman to work in this one particular mine and my job was what they called a belt boy and then they started calling me the belt person because i was a female so when i would go underground everybody would be kind of gathered to see this woman coming out of the mine. You know and then i remember my face would be all black but the coldest since i was a little bit vain so i would have a handkerchief and i would wipe my face off before i would come outside so it would be all clean. So that it but the guys would always be looking for me to come out because it was just so amazing i guess to them to see a Woman Working in the mines. Its all proved. More and more manalo now. I remember when i was in high school is i love the Earth Science i love the mountains all of anything to do with rocks and my Earth Science teacher back then said theres going to be eight hundred years of coal and when he said that thats when things were good you know where everybody was working like the guys that worked in the mines they always had the nice cars like the camaro i remember thinking when i was younger that if anything ever happened to the coal mines here and that it would become a ghost town but i never thought in a million years i would see that and its happened its happened.

Imagine we have some motorcycles smoking the Mining Equipment like say we would take a lot of that stuff you would sell a four hundred dollar mining helmet maybe once a week the lights daily but the fact that the mining mines are shut down makes it difficult to sell that stuff because these were so these were being sold to personal miners for their own use theyre not in mining anymore course theyre not buying it. All of them are very accounting. Ever. In this case is tough today its hard to see any traces have determined past their once made hard in the tories.

I want the same road cyclists hundred push tiley walked three decades ago and words from the opening paragraph to his book come to my mind. It was nineteen eighty eight my fifth visit to Harlan County i was in the winding road from harlan to have birds driving a borrowed pickup truck when i began to notice the road kill it was a dangerous road with more than its share of adventurous drivers and it was getting dark. I began to think of the many ways in which that was a presence in this life. That anymore the road accidents and of course the core mines beyond. Returning to new york leaving behind harder than in the endless rain. I tried to put together the pieces sober remotes were to i only got a glimpse off.

Headline International Islamic state claims that. It is the latest in a string of terrorist atrocities in afghanistan. One hundred people dead. So he has captured a key position in syria in the region as part of its operation against. The russian city of peace between the Syrian Government and opposition groups. And decisive paralympians for the i. P. C. To rule on whether they will be allowed to compete in the upcoming twenty eighteen winter games it was back in two thousand and sixteen. Just weeks before the rio summer olympics. Monday morning here in moscow thanks for joining us here on the International Story this Islamic State says it carried out an attack on a military academy in the Afghan Capital killing. And injuring lets get the very latest now and go straight to a local journalist. Live right now but can you bring us up to speed please what do we know now. I have been able to speak to. The spokesman for the minister of defense confirmed to me to at least five soldiers or killed at least twenty other soldiers or wounded weve heard also from the spokesman for the police chief of kabul. Confirming to at least five soldiers are now confirmed killed we are waiting for further details according to the minister of defense spokesman as well as the police chief. Office the attack is not over so well have to find out more but definitely a complex attack several attackers on two sides vest and have been small weapons targeting. Military institution this is a tactic that the taliban has with Islamic State have used in the past in these attacks after kabul was placed on a high state of security alert. The deadly attack few days ago here in the heart of. Local journalist a bill outside of water thank you. The country has been suffering from a spike of terror lately with three major incidents in just the past week. Saturdays attack in kabul was widely condemned donald trump has reacted by saying the u. S. Is committed to a secure afghanistan that is free of terrorists however the spike in violence comes as america intensifies its Bombing Campaign in the country during the last year the United States dropped over four thousand bombs on afghanistan and since august the us has carried out twice as many air strikes as in the previous two years combined we discussed all of these are issues with Sultan Mahmud holly a former Pakistani Air force captain. Im afraid that President Trump has no realisation of the intensity of the situation in afghanistan he has not been able to read the picture clearly not has he been able to get a reality check of what is the real problem in afghanistan and by announcing on even carrying out attacks like last year if you recall he had to drop the mother of all bombs all he did was that he created more collection of damage and he created more enemies i dont think they can physically through their bombs through their threats overcome this situation which the allied forces when they were at their peak difficult to do so so they cannot do so now and more threats are only going to create more mayhem but it is not going to bring peace input into the region so President Trump im afraid will have to revise his new strategy because it is faulty. The turkish president says that his countrys border with syria will be cleared step by step of terrorists ankara has now reportedly seized a key position in syrias african region as part of its operation against kurdish fighters the u. S. Though would rather see the operation wind down. What we hope theres a turkey is able to satisfy that it has addressed its security concerns all its border and it can limit the amount of fighting that goes on today our heroic soldiers are making history now offering and they will make history tomorrow whatever the terrorists along our border. To remind you the turkish army entered the afrin regional in january the twentieth to fight against Kurdish Forces regarded as terrorists by ankara the u. S. Of course has been assisting the local codes in their anti terror operations but now under pressure from the turks kurds are asking where their western allies on. The u. S. Led coalition allowed this to happen they are watching the Kurdish People believe the discussions between american and turkish president s and the u. S. Statements that the aggression must not harm its interests shameful it is a betrayal of the Kurdish People. The Kurdish People have no allies their brand only on themselves america is our friend one day and now anime and the next. Meanwhile in the russian city of sorcery peace talks between the Syrian Government and opposition groups are about to kick off the Un Special Envoy to syria. Will also be attending. Gives us a preview. Minutes after landing in cinci cameramen and stiff we being diverted to beirut look at the banners he said. Theyre everywhere the entire city seems to be lost the peace for the people of syria five hundred ten journalists were registered for the sochi peace conference in just four days representatives from Seventy Eight different channels as well as dozens and dozens of different News Agencies most of them foreigners these army of journalists covering this event. Only by the number of delegates one thousand six hundred delegates at the sending wants to take part in these talks syrian politicians and the opposition reconciled rebels and active ones commanders and thousands of men christians. Limbs all faiths and denominations aiming for peace. The hard work putting the finishing touches in place they even have special prayer rooms for both muslims and christians this is a new format no middle. Man. These a direct talks face to face the aim here isnt to replace other platforms like the geneva Peace Process it is to supplement them to get the bull ruling say as everyones tired of this war. Is about letting people admit it. To different representatives of the Syrian Opposition who will be present at. The talks have the potential to break the stalemate in the Peace Process. Such a meeting is in the series to meet each other and engage in constructive dialogue and will give hope to the people of syria who do not believe the foreign powers want to see a subtle level than allowed to maintain political dialogue we should not miss this chance to see it at the negotiating table in sochi. And in my view of this talk from stu not to contradict each other through it want to engage in constructive dialogue to find a solution that benefits everyone as the soft peace talks get underway the reconstruction of syria city of aleppo is ongoing the mosque one of the holiest places in islam was badly damaged in the syrian war at the mosque was built between the eighth and thirteenth centuries but was largely damaged in clashes in twenty thirteen the minaret was brought down by shelling and the whole complex is riddled with bullets experts say it will take at least three years to restore the holy site. Today is probably the most important day for russias Paralympic Team in more than a year in a few hours the International Paralympic committee will decide whether russian athletes can compete in the twenty eighteen winter games back and twenty sixteen the committee imposed a blanket ban on russias paralympians just weeks before the rio paralympics. Which is just. Published but you but its possible its a victim if you look at it that you. Know that. It was a good start. But you
