For over four years now. A resident of Cherkessk has been trying for more than four years to prove the guilt of doctors in the death of her son. Physical development of a four-year-old child

HIPPOTHERAPY AS A CHANCE FOR RECOVERY

The horse is one of the symbols of kindness, freedom and fortitude. Imagine this picture: a field along which a stallion runs, cutting open spaces. The view alone is breathtaking. And to be a part of this process is a real pleasure.

Adults squeal with delight when they first sit on a horse. And what can we say about children, and even more so "special" boys and girls. What flurry of emotions does a child with developmental disabilities experience when he is in the saddle? He does not know how to walk, but he sits on a horse himself and is unreasonably happy from this!

It has been proven that contact with horses has a positive effect on human health. Hippotherapy is one of the most effective methods of treating animals through horses. It is aimed at fighting many diseases.

This direction has been successfully developing in the Oryol region for more than four years. On the basis of the Orlovsky Horse Yard "Vyazki", the Children's Rehabilitation Equestrian Center "Boni Club" was created and is successfully operating. The hippotherapy section is attended by boys, girls and even adults with diseases such as cerebral palsy, various disorders of the musculoskeletal system, as well as autism.

Some call hippotherapy therapeutic riding. Indeed, the main effect is achieved precisely through exercises performed on a horse. However, it cannot be said that these two concepts are absolutely identical. After all, an important condition for healing is not only riding, but also just communicating with a horse, caring for it, - said trainer Alla Kameneva. - Our pupils visit the section 2 - 3 times a week. We use an integrated approach: a person warms up and develops muscles while riding a horse, gets a crazy boost of energy and just great pleasure from communicating with this animal.

GOLD AND SILVER AT ALL-RUSSIAN COMPETITIONS

The results of such classes have not only a therapeutic effect. The Oryol guys, under the guidance of their mentors, went further and became real athletes. Para-Olympic Equestrianism is the newest discipline of the International Equestrian Federation. Paralympic dressage is currently the only para-equestrian event included in the Paralympic program.

Who knows, probably very soon among the participants, and possibly the winners, will be the pupils of the "Boni Club". In any case, both the athletes themselves and their coaches have such hopes.

Having noticed good results from hippotherapy, we decided that our guys can go further and engage in equestrian sports. Our hopes were justified. For the first time in the history of the region, two of our pupils became participants in the Open Traditional Moscow Equestrian Cup named after P. Gurvich, - said trainer Maria Semenikhina.

More than 30 athletes from the regions of Russia took part in the competition. Despite the serious competition and the fact that the Oryol participants had to rent horses (the cost of transportation is too high), our fellow countrymen performed brilliantly.

Nine-year-old Valeria Ritarovskaya won a gold medal in her debut competition.

I didn't believe it until the very end when I heard my name. The opponents were so strong, and in age they are all older than me. I am grateful to my coach - this is our common victory, - Valeria shared her impressions.

The girl now cannot imagine her life without horses. She has been studying at the Oryol "Boni Club", located in the village of Vyazki, for three years now.

It all started with hippotherapy, which became a real salvation for us. In a short time, my daughter got rid of the hyperactivity syndrome, became more diligent and attentive. And the horses made her character soft and docile. Nobody expected that therapy would also become a sport in which our girl, I hope, will achieve even greater success, - said the mother of the athlete Ella Koktysh.

An excellent result was shown by another Oryol athlete. 28-year-old Ekaterina Eliseeva received a silver medal at competitions in Moscow.

PRESIDENTIAL GRANT

Very soon, Oryol athletes with disabilities will have the opportunity to perform on their site. For the first time, the Vyazki horse yard will host Paralympic equestrian competitions using a grant from the President of the Russian Federation for the development of civil society provided by the Presidential Grants Fund.

On August 30 - 31, we will hold competitions for children with disabilities. Athletes will be able to take part in them not only from the Oryol region, but also from neighboring regions. Prizes await the winners. And of course, it will be a real equestrian holiday with demonstration performances and thematic quizzes. So we are waiting for everyone to visit, - said Maria Semenikhina.

The date for the competition was not chosen by chance. August 31 is the day of memory of Flor and Laurus, who have long been revered in Russia as the patrons of domestic animals, especially horses. On this day, the equestrian holiday was traditionally celebrated, the horses were not used for work, they were bathed and fed "in full". Come on August 30 and 31 to the Vyazki horse yard, you will definitely like it.

Club address: Oryol region, Oryol district, Vyazki village.

Working hours: from 10.00 to 20.00, day off - Monday. Tel.: 8-910-267-87-08, 8-920-810-89-35.

THIS IS INTERESTING

It is known that during the wars they were treated with horses. Having been injured in battle, they accelerated rehabilitation by riding a horse and, I must say, achieved success.

Thanks to the Presidential Grants Fund, competitions for children with disabilities will be held very soon.

Hippotherapy is extremely useful for rude, quick-tempered and aggressive, as well as fussy and overly mobile people. Regular hippotherapy sessions make them more calm. In addition, therapeutic horseback riding is recommended for diseases of neurological etiology, in particular Down syndrome, autism, Duchenne myopathy, poliomyelitis, sensory disorders, asthenic neurosis, etc.

People with autism who are overly self-absorbed and withdrawn, communicating with kind and trusting horses, are liberated on an emotional level and begin to feel a desire to communicate with others. This reduces lethargy, anxiety, relieves phobias, helps to adapt to reality.

Doctors continue to work in their places

Cherkessk, November 17. Alla Rusakova, a resident of Cherkessk, has been seeking a fair investigation into the death of her son in a city hospital for more than four years. Not months have passed since the tragedy, but years, and all this time the doctors who are accused in the case of the death of a young man are working in their places, but no verdict has been issued against them. The woman is sure that this is no coincidence, and there is only one goal - to drag out the trial and prevent doctors from answering for their mistake, which cost the life of a young man.

“The case has been in court for more than a year,” notes Alla Rusakova. “I think that they just want to close it, not to give it a go.”

The tragedy that forever changed the life of a resident of Cherkessk occurred in January 2013. Her 30-year-old son died after being treated by the doctors of the city hospital of Cherkessk. Alla Rusakova herself became an invalid of the third group. All the years that have passed since that terrible day, the woman is trying to prove that the death of her son was not an accident, but the result of the negligence of doctors. She demands that action be taken against those hospital workers who, in her opinion, are guilty of what happened.

The investigation of the criminal case against doctors, who, according to a resident of Cherkessk, are guilty of the death of her son, was completed a year ago. The suspect was treated by a pulmonologist and the head of the pulmonology department of the city hospital, as well as an anesthesiologist-resuscitator and the head of the anesthesiology-resuscitation department. Now the case is being considered by the court. However, despite the fact that the doctors are in the dock, they continue to work in the same hospital. The woman does not understand how this is possible, because they can make the same unforgivable mistakes as with her son.

“They continue to work, endanger the lives of other people. They are not fired, despite the fact that the examination showed a bunch of violations that they committed, - says Alla Rusakova. “What other violations had to be committed to get them fired?”

The woman points to the conclusions that were made by the experts. As early as December 2015, specialists from the Russian Center for Forensic Medical Examination of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation indicated that shortcomings were made at all stages of medical care for a young man, including when the condition of a resident of Cherkessk became so serious that it was decided to hospitalize him .

“At this stage of medical care, there were the following shortcomings:

1) The examination at admission was not carried out in full.

2) The subsequent examination and treatment were incomplete and not adequate to the patient's condition,” the experts clearly point out, after which they list a number of violations committed by doctors. So, according to experts, although the man was taken to the hospital by ambulance on January 21, but until 8.30 the next day, dynamic monitoring of his condition was not carried out, despite the fact that he "had signs of respiratory failure and hyperthermia." For seven days, even after the man was placed in intensive care, according to the expert opinion, “an ineffective antibacterial drug was used,” while “timely correction of antibiotic therapy was not carried out.”

But the most important thing, and the experts point to this in their conclusions, was “untimely transfer of T. to the intensive care unit - only at 20.50 on January 22, 2013 (the transfer should have been carried out already at 9 am on January 22, after the appearance of signs of cardiovascular insufficiency". The whole day, until late in the evening, as can be understood from the expert's conclusion, the doctors were in no hurry to transfer the patient to intensive care, although they had all the necessary reasons for this.

Then, having already been in intensive care, as the same experts note, the man again was not provided with all the necessary assistance.

“The examination and treatment in the intensive care unit were incomplete and did not correspond to T.'s condition,” the report says.

"The listed shortcomings in the provision of medical care (at all stages) adversely affected the course of the underlying disease, its complications and contributed to the death of T.", - such is the conclusion of the experts.

A resident of Cherkessk believes that these reasons are more than enough to fire doctors. In the meantime, she managed to achieve only one thing - the diplomas of the head of the pulmonology department were canceled. But the woman believes that this is not enough, and doctors should be fired.

“What facts should still be substantiated for the leadership of the hospital, the city health department of the municipality of Cherkessk and the Ministry of Health for the KChR? Who is responsible that such violations will not lead to the next crime against other patients who have applied to the City Hospital?” - asks Alla Rusakova.

The woman believes that the trial of her son's case is being delayed for hidden reasons, and is seriously afraid that the court will not take into account the conclusions of experts, which, in her opinion, are unambiguous. The woman admits that all this time attempts to achieve justice are given to her very hard.

“Four years and ten months have passed since the death of my son. They've been destroying and torturing me all this time. They want me to shut up and be silent,” says Alla Rusakova. She demands a fair trial in the case of the death of her son and assures that she will not remain silent in any case. And he will fight until he achieves justice.

For more than four decades, the film "White Sun of the Desert" has firmly held its position among national hits. This is one of the most famous films in the history of Soviet cinema, which tells about the adventures of the Red Army soldier Fyodor Sukhov, who saves his harem from the bandit Abdullah during the Civil War. The film was shot in 1969 at the Experimental Creative Film Studio (ETK), created on the production base of the Mosfilm and Lenfilm studios, which was directed by film director Grigory Chukhrai.

At first, the film, based on the script by Valentin Yezhov and the then-novice screenwriter Rustam Ibragimbekov, was supposed to be directed by Andrei Mikhalkov-Konchalovsky, who, seeing nothing in the script but an adventure intrigue, refused to stage it.

After such directors as Vytautas Zhalakyavichus, Yury Chulyukin, Andrey Tarkovsky refused the offer to make the film, the offer was made to Vladimir Motyl, known by that time for the film Zhenya, Zhenechka and Katyusha.

Motyl also initially refused, but Grigory Chukhrai and Valentin Yezhov managed to persuade him, promising him complete freedom of action on the set.

On December 14, 1969, a limited premiere of the film was held at the Leningrad Cinema House for the creators and management. The premiere on the wide screen in Moscow took place on March 30, 1970. The audience immediately accepted and fell in love with Vladimir Motyl's film.

The studio was inundated with letters demanding a sequel, the film was shown in all corners of the country, it was sold immediately to a hundred countries, then the contracts were renewed every two or three years. The film has become cinematic folklore. Many statements of the heroes of the tape migrated into colloquial speech, they were turned into proverbs and sayings: “I don’t take bribes, it’s a shame for my state!”, “The East is a delicate matter”, “Gyulchatay, open your face”, “He appointed me his beloved wife! "," Shot.

But the real connoisseurs of it were Soviet and Russian cosmonauts, for whom watching the "White Sun of the Desert" in the evening before the launch has become a tradition. There is even a cassette with the film on board the International Space Station.

Pavel Vereshchagin has become a symbol of the customs service in Russia. In 2007, near the customs office in Kurgan and Amvrosievka (Donetsk region), a monument was unveiled to him, made at the personal expense of customs officers. This is the only sculptural composition in the Russian Federation today dedicated to the image of Pavel Vereshchagin.

The role of Vereshchagin was the best and, unfortunately, the last role of Pavel Luspekaev, who died a month after the premiere of the film.

Immediately after the release on the screens of the USSR, the picture was nominated for the State Prize of the USSR, but in Soviet times the film was never awarded any official awards. And only in 1998 he was awarded the State Prize of Russia.

In December 1999, according to the results of a survey dedicated to the centenary of Russian cinema, the film "White Sun of the Desert" was selected for the "Last Show of the Millennium" action.

Why Assad's army is not retreating (The National Interest, USA)

The American magazine The National Interest, which pays great attention to the situation in Syria, released the material “Why Assad's Army Has Not Defected.” The Federal News Agency offers readers a translation of this material.

Four years ago, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, then Prime Minister of Turkey, said that "in just a few weeks" he would "pray at the Grand Mosque of Damascus", since the army of the Syrian leader Bashar al-Assad should, in his opinion, "is about to fall." Following Erdogan, Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak expressed a similar point of view. When both of these politicians built their assumptions on this matter in 2012, neither the Iranian military nor the Russian air force was yet on the Syrian side.

With the failure of yet another round of peace talks, with the whole world frozen in anticipation of the next turn of events in Syria, it's time to address the warnings of Henry Kissinger and Zbigniew Brzezinski. Kissinger and Brzezinski, the most experienced and influential American politicians on the Middle East since World War II, opposed conventional wisdom and claimed that Syrian President Bashar al-Assad was supported by more people and forces than all the national opposition groups combined.

It's no secret that Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the United States tried to bribe some officials from the circle of politicians close to Assad to undermine his forces. However, the professional military cadres of the Syrian army remained absolutely loyal to their leader.

For the most part, the Syrian army consists of conscripts and only about eighty thousand professional soldiers. At the beginning of the conflict, much attention was paid to the deserting thousands of soldiers, but these were the few conscripts who were never particularly eager to serve in the army, and even in peacetime, most likely would have tried to find a way to evade this duty. The professional ranks, meanwhile, are still very strong and multi-confessional. When representatives of the Syrian opposition talk about the multi-confessional future of Syria, they do not realize that while they are discussing in Geneva, Washington or Vienna, their representatives in Syria are collaborating with the most fanatical and radical terrorist groups in the entire Middle East.

The Syrian army has been holding its positions for more than five years. Its numbers may have decreased a little, which, in principle, is inevitable in the conditions of any military conflict. Upon closer examination, the not entirely obvious fact becomes clear that the backbone of the Syrian army is made up of Sunnis. The current Syrian Defense Minister, Fahed Jassim al-Fredj, is one of the most decorated military officials in the history of the Syrian army, and he hails from the central Sunni region of Hama. Two of the most important leaders of the Syrian intelligence services - Ali Mamluk and Mohammed dib Zaitoun - have also proved their loyalty to the Assad government more than once, and both are Sunnis who come from very influential families. The now deceased member of the intelligence service, Rustum Ghazali, who briefly led Lebanon, was also a Sunni; the head of the intelligence department of the political administration, Mahmoud al-Khattib, also comes from one of the most ancient Sunni families of Damascus, as can be said about many other military officials.

The history of the Syrian army formed by Hafez al-Assad is very instructive. As president, Assad Sr. appointed high-ranking members of the Syrian Air Force to the posts of the army's high command. Naji Jameel (Sunni) served as Air Force Commander from 1970 to 1978 and was promoted and transferred to the General Staff Committee to oversee the security of the border with Iraq. Among the lucky recipients of this kind of promotion were Mohammed al-Khouli, who until 1993 held enviable positions in the logistics sector between Damascus and Lebanon, as well as Rustum Ghazali, Ghazem al-Khadra and Dib Zaitoun, all of whom were Sunnis. Since 1973, the strategically important tank battalions of the 17th Armed Brigade, located near Damascus in the town of al-Kishwa, consisted of ordinary Alawites, commanded by such prominent Sunni officers as Hassan Turkmani and Hikmat Shehabi.

From the 1970s until the 1990s, the Syrian army carried out orders to stabilize the situation in Lebanon. During this period, the Syrian military, supporting their Lebanese puppets, tried to beat the Israeli army and the American navy. In Iraq, after the overthrow of Saddam Hussein, the Americans could not understand which of the Shiite and Sunni rebels the Syrian military intelligence supported, largely due to the professional skills of its personnel.

The Syrian army is at the same time the only army in the entire Middle East that has a large number of generals who profess Christianity in its ranks. The most famous of them is Daoud Raja, the chief of staff of Greek origin, he professes Greek Orthodoxy. The two most influential Lebanese Christian leaders at the moment, Michel Aoun and Suleiman Frangieh, who are candidates for the Lebanese presidency, are also allies of the Syrian army and the government of Bashar al-Assad. And the Syrian city of Deir ez-Zor, which successfully kept the blockade for two years, is a completely Sunni city.

Based on the foregoing, we can conclude that the fact remains that the moderate Syrian opposition exists only in the West. In fact, it has no real armed support. Bashar al-Assad still holds the presidency of Syria, not only because of the support of his regime by Russian and Iranian forces, but also because his army, being multi-confessional and hardy, represents a Syria in which religion is not a determining factor in promotion. The Syrian army is also one of the biggest obstacles to the spread of terrorism. That is why three of the highest-ranking British generals over the past five years have openly called on the world community to recognize the Syrian army as the only force capable of suppressing ISIS and al-Qaeda (both organizations are recognized as terrorist by the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation, their activities in Russia are prohibited).
