Stone unturned

WILL Jimeno's initial reaction to his 9/11 experiences being turned into a movie was to say he didn't want to do it. "I couldn't see how Hollywood would take our story and put it on the big screen. I was hesitant about it," he admits.

The story of how Jimeno and fellow police officer John McLoughlin were pulled from the rubble after being buried 20ft below the surface for more than 12 hours is a remarkable one.

But neither felt comfortable when approached about being the focus of a big movie dealing with the attack on the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. They were two of only 20 people rescued from beneath the piles of concrete slabs and twisted metal after the Twin Towers collapsed.

Meetings with producers and a screenwriter eased their fears. Then, when he heard that Oliver Stone - controversial director of JFK, Platoon, Nixon, Natural Born Killers and Alexander - was to helm the project, Jimeno realised that this uncompromising director was the right man for the job.

"We knew that this had the potential to be a great film. Whether you love or hate this man - and I love him - he stands up for what he believes in, says Jimeno, joining Stone for the London launch of the movie World Trade Center.

"After we saw the completed version of the film for the first time, I walked out and gave him a big hug and kiss, and told him he'd kept his word to me - he'd done good for America and for the world. I hope people see Oliver as a talented director who believes in something and goes forward with that."

Sergeant John McLoughlin (played on screen by Nicolas Cage) and Jimeno (Michael Pena) were among five men from the Port Authority Police Department who went into the buildings and were trapped when the towers collapsed. Lying injured 20ft below the rubble field, they couldn't see each other but could hear each other and kept each other alive talking about their lives and families until rescue arrived. The film cuts between the trapped men, their families waiting for news and the rescuers.

Stone has received some of the best reviews of an often-stormy career for World Trade Center. "It was a minefield that could have blown up in our face," he admits. "We had political considerations in New York. The producers spent hours and hours having dozens of meetings with all kinds of groups, widows groups, political groups.

"We shot in New York but there were many limitations. And then, of course, technically we depended on Will and John and the rescuers for very complicated technical advice."

Stone was aware that 9/11 events looked just like a movie, remembering that on the day itself people were comparing it to a Jerry Bruckheimer movie, a reference to the producer specialising in big budget action movies.

Making a film like that was precisely what Stone didn't want to do. "I'm sure there could be a Towering Inferno made out of this, they could make a hell of an exciting movie. It would probably be a big popcorn movie," he says.

"But the beauty of this, and the originality of it, was that it was apolitical, a microcosmic story. Going into Noah's Ark with the whole human race getting sucked down and then out of the belly of the whale, so to speak, these two are spit back. Only 20 survivors, a very amazing ratio. And these two had a coherent story."

Stone believes his own combat duty - he served in the US Army Infantry in Vietnam, where he was wounded twice and decorated with the bronze star for valour - was an asset in getting into the minds of McLoughlin and Jimeno. "It's been noted in my work in the past that I've been interested in death states, and in this movie it was a chance to really talk to two men who had been as close to death as most men have ever been in their lives," he explains.

"What brings them back? What is the thing that connects them to the Earth? I choose to believe, and I may be dead wrong, they survived because of metaphysical reasons, not only physical reasons. There's an inner life going on. John had beliefs in family and a faith, and Will was similar, and their helping each other contributed to it. The mind is what kept them alive."

Jimeno also sees Stone's past was a help, seeing a common denominator between a police officer and a military person. "I don't care where you're from in the world, people who've seen combat understand there's a certain honour and a certain obligation to honour those who've lost their lives," he says.

"The McLoughlins and the Jimenos didn't do this film for money or fame. We did this to bring out the story of those that we lost, the strength of our wives and of our rescue workers.

"Oliver gave me his word. I never had a concern after that, knowing that for the man who'd seen combat to do anything different would disgrace those memories and him. I knew he wasn't going to do that."

Stone's satisfied that both survivors and those who died in the tragedy are honoured by the story of McLoughlin and Jimeno. "It's a way of remembering them in a positive way. This is a memorial and the function of a memorial is to remember," he says. "Believe it or not, in America many people have already forgotten 9/11. They're living with the consequences of it, which are nightmarish. They ought to put up a memorial at that place. I hope this will be another form of memorial."

Reliving the many hours they were trapped through the movie recreation was obviously painful for Jimeno and McLoughlin and their families. Seeing the movie for the first time produced "a rollercoaster of emotions," says Jimeno.

"Once you get over seeing regular people like ourselves portrayed on film, you have the emotions of happiness as we were leaving the house. I'd just bought my first house six weeks before the attacks, my wife was pregnant, I had a beautiful little girl and was going to work at, for me, the best job at the Port Authority Police Department in New Jersey.

"Then you get to work and you have fear, you have power, you have pain, you see the loss of life. But at the end of the film we walked out with a lot of honour.

"The most important thing is faith, hope and love. That's when I walked out and gave Oliver a hug and a kiss. I feel bad for anybody who doesn't walk out with those emotions, because then I don't know what you're seeking in life.

"Those things are there. It happened on 9/11, in London, in Spain, in India. I keep using Edmund Burke's quote 'all that is needed for evil to prevail is for good men to stand by and do nothing'.

"There were good men and women on 9/11 - Oliver's showing that. And everybody throughout the world can gain from our experience if they're confronted with a tragedy."

The Death of Richard III at the Battle of Bosworth by Justo Jimeno Bazaga

[imthursdaysyme]

While I love Steve having a kid that's a nerd, my favorite is if his kid is just like him. He's popular even at 7, he's extroverted, funny, and charming albeit a little strange. He loves sports and struggles in math and doesn't really get english and gets scolded when he laughs in history—sue him he thought it was funny—and has a tendency to get detention but also is somehow a teachers pet all at once.

He has a tendency for feminine things, makes it his own with earrings and the occasional pink flower print shirt.

He begs steve to not work on the car until he gets home from school, cause even at 5, he would rather climb over the fence and run home by himself then learn his dad worked on the cool car without him.

He loves driving and cooking and dancing and loves swimming—aunt Robbie calls him a variety of aquatic animals instead of his name; minnow, fish, stingray, tigershark. Anything went.

They look alike and act alike to the point robin laughs and claims Steve just cloned himself, Eddie says that the kid is actually just Steve brought to the future through time travel. Steve laughs, he loves it ofc but he's never pushed or forced it, it just happened that way.

But there's also times, where Steve sees his son, so like him with big tears in his eyes trying to be tough. Or when all he wants is to sleep in the bed with Steve when he has a nightmare, wants his dad to kiss everything better, when he so easily seeks affection or struggles with school to the point he's getting stress migraines at 9, sees him try so hard to do his best and do what he does well. Sees him fail.

And when Steve sees this, he wonders if maybe he wasn't a bad kid. Didn't need to be tougher, manlier, smarter—better—to deserve love.

Just. Like. Steve seeing that he didn't need to be anything other than what he was. That he has no idea how his parents didn't love him bc how could he ever not love his kid? Just like its okay for him to be how he is and have a kid that a like him as well bc he's pretty great

And like. Its just that idea that Steve could only “heal his inner child” with a kid that's different then him or a girl is kind of sad that it's only that what if him and his son go to every game and constantly have grease on them what then.

OneNETnews INVESTIGATES: A Young Child in Calamba City, including Local Vlogger sparks concerns over 'Exercise Shaming' [EXCLUSIVE]

CALAMBA, LAGUNA -- Circulation of a video on social media platforms drawns the attention to a concerning case of potential exercise shaming involving a young child in Calamba City, Laguna. The video, shared on Instagram by the account 'Don Liam and Family Vlog', has sparked widespread debate and raised alarms among netizens.

An exclusive report from 'Manila Bulletin' shared on Facebook sheds light on the video, portraying parents from the Jimeno family encouraging their daughter's child named Liam Grey Jimeno to participate in physical activity. While the initial reaction may have been positive due to the child's apparent cuteness, a closer analysis of a video footage from our research and investigative team unveils troubling practices.

Netizens were initially drawn to the video due to the apparent overload of cuteness on foot. However, upon closer inspection on our investigative news team of OneNETnews, it became evident that the child's parents were employing questionable tactics to motivate him to exercise. Uploaded in mid-December 2023, the video shows the parents using sweets like chocolates as an illegal parenting reward for completing exercise routines, a practice commonly referred to as 'exercise shaming'.

Exercise shaming, where physical activity is used as a form of either partial or full-time punishment or reward, can have detrimental effects on a child's mental and physical well-being like baby Liam. This leads to break a 'Food Pyramid' rule for not having a proper diet and healthy lifestyle. Fitness experts cautioned against employing such methods, and highlight the importance of fostering a positive association with exercise and instilling healthy habits from an early age like a toddler.

In view of these illicit concerns, it is essential to tackle the issue of exercise shaming and its potential effects on children. Local health care professionals in Laguna highlights the significance of avoiding the use of exercise as a form of punishment or reward. Engaging like this in such outdoor practices can result the feelings of shame and inadequacy, ultimately undermining a child's self-esteem and their connection with physical activity.

Studies published in a 2015 journal report 'PLOS ONE' underscoring the lasting impacts of this said shaming, including an elevated risk of developing disordered eating habits and negative body image. These findings also underscore the necessity for parents & caregivers to utilize positive reinforcement strategies when encouraging children to engage in physical outdoor activities.

Furthermore, it is essential to understand the impact of nutrition under the 'Food Pyramid' rule, promoting overall health and well-being. While indulging in sweets may seem innocent, excessive consumption intake can lead to health problems like us such as obesity and dental issues. Seeking guidance from healthcare professionals and certified dietitians can provide valuable medical and physical advice on establishing healthy eating habits for the Filipino children.

As medical professionals and dietitian investigators in Laguna continues into the purported 'exercise shaming' incident like baby Liam, it is more vital for parents & caregivers to strictly prioritize and focus on their children's physical and emotional well-being. By fostering a supportive environment and instilling positive attitudes towards exercise and nutrition in the 'Food Pyramid' rule, they can play a key role in ensuring that every child has the chance to flourish and maintain a proper diet and healthy lifestyle altogether.

So happy I am now playing and loving it, so I thought I'd share some of my faves from it

(For anyone interested, it's the Essence of art - Yakuza 6 volume, I think it was included in some special edition?)

Ela Minus - UPWARDS

With news of her highly-anticipated album "DIA" on the horizon (out January 17) Colombian electronic exponent Ela Minus (aka Gabriela Jimeno Caldas) reaches new heights with her latest single "UPWARDS". A track with a rather paradoxical nature, "UPWARDS" meanders through a dichotomy of external strength and internal vulnerability. Melodically, these sentiments are paired to the incongruent shapes of its wobbly synths and rather dissonant vocal harmonies. It's a song which despite its notably electronic textures feels decidedly gritty and raw in its presentation, a seeming contradiction that so properly summarizes the track's hypnotic yet eloquently-stated and poignant prose.

"UPWARDS"

Okay, Maron gets a signed one for free because the idea of his signature being frames is REALLY exciting to him.

"Thank you, Mister Emmet! It's going right next to the ones from papa's travel agency work."

And this one's special! It's signed! And this guy's a regional celebrity -- even if some people probably don't appreciate the subway the way they should (well, Maron hasn't quite gotten to go to Unova, but the Battle Subway is pretty high on his list of things he wants to do if Jimeno's work can snag them all a trip there). Of course this postcard goes right with the family ones, it's just as special.

¡Conoce la apasionante historia de la Dinastía Jimena!

La Dinastía Jimena, también conocida como dinastía Íñiga-Jimena, gobernó el Reino de Pamplona (posteriormente Navarra) durante más de 300 años, desde el año 905 hasta 1234. Su legado está marcado por la expansión territorial, la consolidación del reino y la lucha constante contra los reinos vecinos.

Su origen se remonta a Jimeno Garcés, un noble vascón que luchó contra la invasión musulmana en la península ibérica. Su hijo, Sancho Garcés I, fue quien consolidó la dinastía al ascender al trono de Pamplona en el año 905.

Algunos de los monarcas más destacados de la Dinastía Jimena fueron:

Sancho III el Mayor (1004-1035): Expandió el reino hacia el sur, conquistando territorios como Nájera, Calahorra y Viguera. También estableció relaciones diplomáticas con los reinos cristianos y musulmanes de la península.

Sancho IV el de Peñalén (1054-1076): Se enfrentó a una guerra civil contra sus hermanos, pero logró mantener la unidad del reino. Durante su reinado se produjo la conquista de Tafalla.

Alfonso I el Batallador (1104-1134): Conquistó Zaragoza y Tudela, convirtiendo a Navarra en uno de los reinos más poderosos de la península. Participó en la Reconquista y luchó contra los almorávides.

Sancho VII el Fuerte (1194-1234): Conocido por su gran fuerza física y su valor en la batalla. Participó en la batalla de las Navas de Tolosa contra los almohades.

La Dinastía Jimena llegó a su fin en el año 1234 con la muerte de Sancho VII el Fuerte sin descendencia. El trono de Navarra pasó entonces a la dinastía de Champaña.
