Wenger blames bad luck and referee error for Arsenal rout

While his new teammates congratulated his old teammates on their victory, McCoy sprinted off alone to a chorus of boos. They consistently got pressure on the QB and did an even better job of keeping the Bills’ running backs in-check.
The government has said more than 70 people are missing the latest industrial disaster, although this figure continues to be revised down as authorities make contact with people who were believed to have been buried but were not. The news of the death of the other individual was confirmed by neurosurgeon Dai Limeng in a news conference.
Rescue crews also managed to recover another person who was buried underneath Tian, but that person did not survive.
Firefighters had to squeeze into the narrow room around Tian and remove the debris by hands, said Zhang Yabin, an armed police participating in the rescue. Heavy rains then saturated the soil, causing it to collapse with massive force, the AP said. “The rescue work won’t slow”, said Yue Xi, a police officer involved in rescue operations at the scene.
Over 72 hours have passed since the Shenzhen landslide happened and survivors are fighting against time to save more lives.
Government controlled news media reported the District Government near the landslide site had reported safety concerns months before Sunday’s disaster.
“About one million square meters (247 acres) of soil waste is left every year in Guangming New District and there’s need to find its way out”.
According to the official Xinhua news service, Xing Feng, a civil engineering professor from Shenzhen University, had previously cautioned that China’s quantity of construction debris has grown rapidly in the past two decades, averaging at one ton per person, with the country’s disposal management mechanism lagging far behind.
