00:30:24
a little slower and we use words and phrases
especially Richard are people learning

English. On today's program you

00:30:38

00:30:46
with another episode of The Making of

00:30:48
a nation. But 1st. A new Taiwan law

00:30:55
bars news media from reporting
different kinds of information about

00:31:02
suicides including methods
used limits on media

00:31:08
reporting are aimed at reducing the number
of people who try to kill themselves

00:31:16
Taiwan officials say about 7000
young people between the ages of

00:31:23
13 and 19 attempted suicide in 2018

00:31:30
that number is 19 percent above the
world average notes the island's

00:31:37
Ministry of Health and Welfare
under the new Suicide

00:31:43
Prevention Act newspapers websites
and television stations can

00:31:50
be fined up to about $33000.00
for showing pictures or

00:31:57
videos of suicides. They also can
be fined for reporting details of

00:32:04
suicide methods or explaining
how to buy tools for suicide

00:32:12
even explaining why an individual might
have committed suicide can lead to

00:32:18
punishment the act cleared its
public consultation period last

00:32:25
week Taiwan's government can now make
changes as it wishes or enforce the

00:32:32
law and its current form.
Is with the National Taiwan

00:32:38
University's College of Medicine
who said that suicides normally go

00:32:45
up in Taiwan for 3 months following
reports that identify famous people who

00:32:52
killed themselves as well as how and
where they died according to our

00:32:59
clinical experience and some of our interaction
with patients we've discovered that

00:33:05
the more detailed info the more
influential it is who said

00:33:12
Taiwan's 4 major daily newspapers and
many websites currently report on

00:33:18
famous people who take their own lives
as well as other unusual suicides

00:33:26
their stories may go into great
detail Cedric. Heads the East

00:33:33
Asia office of the group Reporters Without
Borders he said he understands what

00:33:39
Taiwan officials are trying to do but he
thinks the law will limit the media's

00:33:46
ability to get the story
right. He said We perfectly

00:33:53
understand that it is their duty to try
and bring improvements to the society and

00:33:59
address that terrible society problem
that is suicide and especially suicide of

00:34:06
teenagers However the
solution they propose is not

00:34:11
a solution New Zealand is
the only place that has

00:34:16
a similar law. Added in that
country the media cannot report

00:34:22
a suicide method without the medical
examiner's permission and other

00:34:28
places media companies follow World
Health Organization guidance

00:34:35
w.h.o.

00:34:36
Officials suggest avoiding explicit description
of methods details of where people

00:34:43
died and undue repetitions
of suicide stories.

00:34:49
Restrictions on suicide reporting could
open the door for other kinds of media

00:34:54
restrictions notes Joanna
Les head of the law 21st

00:35:01
century research group
in Taiwan I see this as

00:35:06
a social responsibility of the media
said it should not be legislated

00:35:13
Reporters Without Borders said Taiwan's
government should better organize the media

00:35:19
and talk to news operations about
ethics Taiwan's major media

00:35:26
currently take down social media
posts if experts ask them to said

00:35:33
most newspapers in Taiwan limit their
coverage of suicides but still put major

00:35:38
cases on their front pages said
function Kai director of the Suicide

00:35:45
Prevention Center at my k.

00:35:48
Memorial Hospital in Taipei. He
suggests putting reports about suicide

00:35:55
with other society news and away
from the day's top stories.

00:36:11
On Scotland's aisle of Sky
scientists have identified 2

00:36:17
areas with evidence of ancient
life forms researchers

00:36:23
believe the markings are in fact
footprints from dinosaurs that lived

00:36:30
170000000 years ago they say
the prints date to the middle

00:36:37
of the Jurassic period

00:36:39
a time from which few dinosaur fossils
have been recovered researchers

00:36:46
reported this month on their study of
about 50 you fossilized footprints at the

00:36:53
2 sites the markings are just

00:36:56
a few 100 metres apart from each
other they are said to show

00:37:02
dinosaurs walking in different
directions at least 3 kinds of

00:37:09
dinosaurs left the footprints Steve
Bruce at the leader of the research

00:37:16
team is

00:37:17
a paleontologist with the University
of Edinburgh. The tracks are

00:37:24
located on flat rocky surfaces near
the beach so they are only exposed at

00:37:31
low tide he said the tide laps
across them back and forth

00:37:38
every day one set of markings came from

00:37:43
a 2 legged meat eating dinosaur that
researchers say was about the size of

00:37:50
a car. They say its footprints
have 3 toes the creature

00:37:57
with sharp claws appears to be from

00:38:00
a group of dinosaurs called their
own pods bigger 3 toed footprints

00:38:07
came from large bodied 2 legged plant
eaters called or Nyssa Pods or

00:38:14
perhaps the researchers say

00:38:17
a large theropod all of these
prints had worn down toes not

00:38:24
sharp edges 3 searchers are
especially interested in markings

00:38:30
left by another creature
an early member of

00:38:34
a group of heavily built 4 legged
plan teeters called Stegosaurus the

00:38:41
footprints represent some of the oldest
evidence anywhere of us druggists or notes

of Edinburgh. The Polo was the lead

00:38:55
writer of

00:38:56
a report on the study the findings
were published in The Journal plus

00:39:03
one the most famous member of the
stagger stores was Stegosaurus

00:39:10
which lived late in the Teresita period
it had large bony protective plates

a large spiked tail to. Set
was careful to note that

00:39:26
the researchers still have

00:39:29
a lot of unanswered question about
this creature. I suspect this

00:39:36
was about the size of

00:39:38
a cow which is fairly small for us I
guess or whether that's because it's

00:39:44
a primitive smaller
species or a juvenile of

00:39:49
a bigger species we're not sure he
said the researchers noted that the

00:39:56
findings were and important window
into the many kinds of dinosaurs on

00:40:03
the Isle of Skye sky has emerged
as one of the most important

00:40:09
windows into Jurassic dinosaur
evolution we know that dinosaurs were

00:40:16
diversifying with

00:40:17
a frenzy in the middle Jurassic but
there are few fossil sites of this age

a hospital near the northern city

a 36 year old engineer said the
hospital was in serious need of the

00:42:16
valves the devices are impossible
to find at the moment he

00:42:23
said he added that the fast spreading
virus was simply preventing current

00:42:30
production from meeting the growing
demand he decided to offer the

00:42:36
services of his company's 3 d.

00:42:39
Printing equipment and of his 14
employees to help ease the shortage

00:42:47
when we heard about the shortage we got
in touch with the hospital immediately we

00:42:53
printed some prototypes the hospital tested
them and told us they worked for costs

00:43:00
he said so we printed 100 valves
and I delivered them personally

00:46:10
Welcome to the making of a nation
American history in v.o.a.

00:46:15
a Special English I'm Steve
ember. History is full

00:46:22
of examples of leaders joining together
to meet common goals but rarely

00:46:29
have 2 leaders work together with as much
friendship than cooperation as Franklin

00:46:35
Roosevelt and Winston Churchill did Roosevelt
was president of the United States

00:46:43
Churchill was prime minister of Britain
the 2 men had much in common they were

00:46:49
both born into wealthy families and they
were both active in politics for many

00:46:55
years both leaders also shared

00:46:59
a love of history and nature and
the seat. Roosevelt and Churchill

00:47:06
1st meant when they were lower level left
facials during World War one but neither

00:47:12
man remembered much about that meeting
however as they worked together during the

00:47:18
2nd World War They came to like and
trust each other. Roosevelt and

00:47:25
Churchill exchanged more than
$1700.00 letters and messages over

00:47:31
a period of 5 and

00:47:33
a half years they met many times at
large international gatherings and in

00:47:40
private talks but the closeness of
their friendship might be seen best in

00:47:45
a story told by one of Roosevelt's
close advisors every Hopkins Hopkins

00:47:52
remembered how Churchill was visiting
Roosevelt that the White House one day

00:47:58
Roosevelt went into Churchill's room in the
morning to say hello but the president

00:48:04
was shocked to see Churchill coming in
from the bathroom with no clothes on

00:48:10
Roosevelt immediately apologized to the
British leader but Churchill reportedly

00:48:16
answered the prime minister of Great Britain
as nothing to hide from the president

00:48:22
of the United States.

00:48:30
The United States and Great Britain and
where the most powerful left the nations

00:48:35
that joined together as allies to resist
Germany's out all for Hitler and his axis

00:48:41
partners in January of 194226 the allied

00:48:48
nations signed an agreement promising to
fight for the goals of these religious

00:48:55
freedom human rights and justice.
The 3 major allies were the United

00:49:02
States Britain and the Soviet Union. The
governments in Washington and London

00:49:09
did not always agree for example they
disagreed about when to attack Hitler's

00:49:15
forces in western Europe. And Churchill
resisted Roosevelt's suggestions that

00:49:22
Britain give up some of its colonies
but in general the friendship between

00:49:28
Roosevelt and Churchill and between the
United States and Britain led the 2 nations

00:49:35
to cooperate closely this was not true
with the Soviets the Soviet Union

00:49:42
was

00:49:42
a communist country it did not share the
same history or political system as the

00:49:49
United States or Britain and the
Soviet Union had its own interests to

00:49:55
protect along its borders
and in other areas.

00:50:10
Relations between the Soviet Union and
the Western Allies were mixed on the one

00:50:17
hand Hitler's invasion deep into the
Soviet Union at forced Joseph Stalin and

00:50:24
others Soviet leaders to make victory over
the Germans their most important goal

00:50:31
on the other hand shadows of future
problems could already be seen the Soviet

00:50:38
Union was making clear its desire to
keep political control over Poland

00:50:45
and it was supporting communist fighters
in Yugoslavia and Greece. These

00:50:52
differences were not discussed much as the
foreign ministers of Britain the Soviet

00:50:58
Union and the United States
gathered in Moscow in 1943 Instead

00:51:05
they reached several agreements
including on a plan to establish

00:51:10
a new organization called
the United Nations.

00:51:21
Finally Roosevelt Churchill and standing
met together for the 1st time they met in

00:51:28
Teheran in late 1943 mainly to
discuss the military situation

00:51:35
however the 3 leaders also considered
political questions such as the future of

00:51:42
Germany Eastern Europe and East
Asia later the Allies made further

00:51:48
plans for the new United
Nations they arranged for

00:51:53
a new international economic organizations
the World Bank and the International

00:51:59
Monetary Fund. And the airlines agreed to
divide Germany entered different parts

00:52:06
after the war for

00:52:07
a temporary period the Soviet Union would
occupy the eastern part while Britain

00:52:14
France and the United States what
occupied the West Washington London and

00:52:21
Moscow were united during the early years
of the war because of military need

00:52:28
they knew they must fight together to
defeat their common enemy but this unity

00:52:35
faded as allied troops marched
toward the German border Roosevelt

00:52:42
continued to call on the world to wait
until the last bullet was fired before

00:52:48
deciding what would come next. But
Churchill Stalin and other leaders

00:52:55
already were trying to shape but world
that would follow the war now differences

00:53:02
between the Allies became more serious.

00:53:17
The most important question was Poland
Hitler's invasion of Poland in 1939

00:53:24
and started the war. Roosevelt and Churchill
who believed strongly that the Polish

00:53:30
people should have the right to choose
their own leaders after the war Churchill

00:53:36
supported the group but Polish resistance
leaders who had an office in London in

00:53:43
1040 hold these flyers and taken part in
the Battle of Britain piloting the British

00:53:50
warplanes against the German Luftwaffe
it but Stalin had other ideas

00:53:57
he demanded that Poland's border be changed
to give more land to the Soviet Union

00:54:04
and he refused to help the Polish
resistance leaders in London instead he

00:54:10
supported the group of Polish
communists and help them establish

00:54:15
a new government in Poland.
Churchill's visited Stalin late in

00:54:21
1944 the 2 leaders met with Roosevelt

00:54:25
a few months later. On the
Crimean coast. Agreed that free

00:54:32
elections should be held quickly in
Poland and they trade in ideas about the

00:54:39
future of Eastern Europe China
and other areas of the world.

00:54:45
Roosevelt was in good spirits when he
reported to Congress after his return from

00:54:51
they go into a conference I come from a
crimea conference with the fungal e.

00:54:57
We have made a good stop on the road to

00:55:00

00:56:13
In them will. Call that take the
money to ride with me Roosevelt

00:56:19
went on to say about the peace cannot be

00:56:22
a completely perfect system
at 1st but it can be

00:56:27
a peace based on the idea of freedom
Churchill had the same high hopes

00:56:35
he told the British Parliament that after
the conference that Stalin and others

00:56:39
Soviet leaders wished to live in
honorable friendship. I also know that

00:56:46
their word is honest
Churchill said. But as

00:56:53
history proved Roosevelt and Churchill
were wrong about the Soviets in the months

00:56:59
after they yell to conference relations
between Moscow and the Western democracies

00:57:05
grew steadily worse the Soviet Union
moved to seize control of Eastern Europe

00:57:12
Stalin began making strong speeches
charging that Washington and London were

00:57:18
holding secret peace negotiations with
Germany and the Soviet Union refused to

00:57:25
discuss ways to bring democracy to Bolton.

00:57:32
Churchill wrote later that he had always
held the Russian people in the high honor

00:57:38
but their shadow darkened the picture after
the war Britain and America had gone to

00:57:44
war not just to defend the smaller
countries but also to fight for individual

00:57:51
rights and freedoms Churchill went on to
say about the Soviet Union at the other

00:57:57
goals its hold tightened on the eastern
Europe after the Soviet army gained

00:58:04
control and Churchill said that after the
long suffering and the efforts of World

00:58:10
War 2 It seemed that half of Europe at
just exchange one dictator for another.

00:58:18
Churchill and Roosevelt agreed in secret
letters that they must trying to oppose

00:58:24
the Soviet effort but before they could
act Roosevelt died and the world

00:58:31
began to live through

00:58:32
a new war the Cold War in the years
to follow. Roosevelt's death

00:58:39
from bleeding in the brain also ended

00:58:42
a deep personal friendship between 2
world leaders. Winston Churchill later

00:58:49
rode to about hearing the news of the death
of his close friend I felt as if I had

00:58:55
been struck with a physical blowed Churchill
wrote he said he was overpowered by

00:59:02
a sense of duty and permanent loss. The
free world joined Churchill in mourning the

00:59:09
loss of so strong a leader as Franklin
Roosevelt but it could not be for

00:59:15
a long war was giving way to peace

00:59:19
