[♪ music ] >> welcome to the news hour. we're in doe hoe with the world's top news stories. syria's alleged chemical attack, doctors without borders says over 3,000 people needed treatment for neurotoxic symptoms. >> reporter: we're outside of the lincoln memorial in washington where tens of thousands of people are marching to renew the dream of racial justice first envisioned here a half century ago by martin luther king.

>> i'm barbara with the top stories from europe. jgibralt er controversy, and russia creates new barriers to protect it's new eastern region. >> three hospitals in syria supported by hospitals without borders say they have treated well over 3,000 patients for neurotoxic symptoms. 300 and 55 of them we're told have died. syria faces allegations that it used chemical weapons in an attack on wednesday. syrian state television say soldiers have found nerve agents in tunnels used by rebels. the new head of the syrian

national coalition called for an urgent look into syria. >> we need to put an end to the killing of the syrian people and forcing the syrians to flee their country. an international investigation is quite pontiac, and to discuss the situation with the seventh chapter of the united nations despite hijacking the council by russia, china, and some other countries. they are not really in support of the syrian cause. >> obama has been meeting with his national security advisers to discuss the options on syria. we have the latest pictures of wednesday's chemical attack.

we'll warn you you may find the following images disturbing. [ sobbing ] >> reporter: the two tiny bodies hang limp in his arms. "what will i do now?" cries the father. the man destroyed by grief. picture like these with many men, women, and children indiscriminately killed by what all evidence suggests was a chemical attack continues to shock the world. the syrian government still refuses access to united nations groups, and only allow to

inspect the site where three previous attacks took place. but there may be signs in the beginning of a shift in u.s. policy. defense secretary chuck hagel said president obama has told the pentagon to prepare for military options in syria. the u.s. navy has sent a battleship into the medicinete e mediterranean. >> they could be looking at a number of options in potential response to what happened in syria over the weekend of the last few days. >> reporter: united states says it needs proof that chemical weapons killed these people. the assad government denied it was behind any chemical weapons attack. some experts say not only assad has access to chemical agents. >> they may be the only one with access to the missile technology being discovered at that time, but these types of chemical weapons are not very, very

difficult to manufacture. >> reporter: syrian state tv has had these t.v.'s and said the government has found these chemicals under rebel control. syria's biggest ally russia said syria must cooperate and allow u.n. to visit the sites of last week's apparent. attack. but there is little move from moscow. >> the coalition of the willing once again to intervene in military fashion even in a limited way. there is no indication that russia might even be slightly cooperative this time. >> reporter: barack obama security visors have been meeting at the white house. united nations disarmament chief has arrived in syria and is trying to negotiate access to

visit the site. >> christopher stokes is the director general of doctors without borders. he gives us more details on that incident. >> reporter: yes, doctors without borders are working with a whole series of clinics inside of syria, and in this case we're talking about three clinics in particular in and around damascus. with which we've been in contact the last few days. we've supplied them with a drug used in the case of patients presented with neurotoxic symptoms, and the picture we've been able to put together struggles the use of a neurotoxic agent last wednesday, and they propertied 3,600 patients and 35,050 have died as a consequence of that attack. we cannot access those hospitals. we do have teams inside syria but fought specifically in these areas in and around damascus and it is impossible for internationals to get in there. the credibility we would assign

to this, the fact that we've been working with these structures for six months, regular contact with these doctors. these doctors have given us precise diagnoses of patients they've received over the last few days. pinpoint pupils, excess saliva, respiratory distress all point to neur crow toxic agents. we don't have proof, which is why we're calling for independent investigators to be granted access to be able to understand what happened, what agent was used, and who is responsible for this. >> we're joined live from washington, d.c. first of all, gene, what option is the obama administration considering right now from what we know? >> we do know that the president has been meeting with his national security visors today. no word whether that meeting has concluded.

no word on exactly what they were discussing, and certainly no word if any decisions were taken. we do know from secretary of defense chuck hagel that there have been military options being explored. there's been some movement, military assets in position to give the president a range of options. one of those moments is the move movement of a warship to th mediterranean. and the missile attack is the likely course of action. but the president, although he has said in the past that the use of chemical weapons would an red line, and that there would be significant consequences if that line were to be crossed has said in recent days he still wants more information. he does want an assessment whether or not chemical agents were use, and if they were used

by the assad regime. he would like to have international support, and that's something else being discussed at the white house today. >> given to what you just said, how soon could one expect intervention if one is to come? >> it's truly unclear. the president did say in an interview this week that the window for action had grown shorter but there was nothing specifically said what the time frame for u.s. action if there is any would be. >> now what form of international backing is the u.s. seeking in light of the fact that u.n. backing seems very unlikely, doesn't it? >> u.n. backing seems unlikely specifically because of the russian attitude towards this. we do know in the past the u.s. took action in kosovo with the backing of n.a.t.o. is that a possibility here? there have been some news reports suggesting that has been something discussed, but as far as we know nothing any further than that.

>> thanks so much, jeane from washington, d.c. well, it's been 50 years since martin luther king's famous "i have a dream" people in 1963. 200,000 took part of the march for jobs and freedom in washington, d.c. it was seen as one of the key moments in the fight for equality for african-americans. thousands gathered to commemorate the speech at the u.s. capitol on saturday. the march was is a series of memorial events over the next five days. it was suggested that king would be disappointed with the state of equality today. >> what are the issues that the marchers are trying to focus attention on this year? >> reporter: well, the people who you see now finishing--these

speeches having been finished are wiping their way over to the washington monument. they've been hearing speaker after speaker basically deal with several issues that many of them actually martin luther king never actually touched on, but beyond that, for example, martin luther king never actually thought that voting rights would once having been enacted would be rolled back, but yet that's precisely what some of the people say that they fear is being accomplished by the republican congress vetted by the supreme court. with me is mr. sheldon head of the naacp. mr. sheldon, the mention here today realizing the dream of martin luther king a year 50 yeo implies that none of his goals have been accomplished? >> no, not at all. this is as much a com commemoran

as celebration of the dream that he laid out on that hot day of august 1963. the issue was a march for jobs and freedom. the issue is to making sure that our constitution is real for all americans. if you point back to--we'll use dr. king's speech, for instance, in 1963 as a guideline for how we analyze the agenda going forward. dr. king first began talking about the constitution was very much like a promissory note, a check, if we might, one guaranteeing all the citizens of the united states equal protection under law, and all those other rights and privileges and protections in the constitution. and that, indeed, for african-americans and so many others, that had not been accomplished. in essence that check had come back stamped insufficient funds. he sent people out from that march saying we must now accomplish these goals, voting

rights, freedom, addressing the criminal justice system and education system, so many other things that divide our nation. >> reporter: the president signed the civil rights act, and most republicans, more republicans than democrats in one chamber of the house voted for it. 50 years later you're seeing a partisan divide. i notice that none of the speakers here were republicans. does this imply that this is now become--all your goals have become much more partisan in intent or in result? >> we certainly hope not. if you keep in mind the voting rights act of 65, the fair housing act of 68, and other important pieces of landmark legislation that help us realize the commitments to the constitution, away can't get those through without support on both sides of the ail. >> reporter: thank you. president obama will be speaking

at another event here at lincoln memorial continuing this contins commemoration of martin luther king's speech and the rally 50 years ago that is etched in the history books of the united states. >> thank you so much. still to come in the news hour, facing trial for the death of protesters in egypt, both the leaders of muslim brotherhood and mubarak get their day in court. and in sport, hamilton reigns. qualifying for the belgium grand prix coming up. >> another leading figure in the muslim brotherhood has been arrested in egypt.

he's charged with inciting violence outside of the muslim brotherhood's headquarters in march. well, egypt's government is relaxing the nationwide curfew by two hours. meanwhile, the protests are continuing, albeit on a smaller scale. people have been marching throughout the day. protesters blocked the road in the nasr city district of cairo. they also gathered in the main square. and demonstrators have been out in the streets south of the capitol. we're live in the egyptian capitol. how should we interpret this shortening of the curfew? do authorities feel they're past the protests or were they ignoring it any way? >> reporter: they were ignoring it, but by and large it was

observed by most egyptians. if you think about the previous curfew that mohamed morsi placed earlier in the year was not observed at all. people would play football in the streets just to show they were not observing the curfew. what happened is the interim cabinet as well as the military is sending out very strong mention out to the egyptian. that message is not only are they winning this so-called war against extremists, but that it's going to be over soon. by and large many gymses think that is what is happening. bear in mind media, whether print or radio are not covering those protests that is happening every night. even if they're happening on a smaller scale, they're happening in other provinces. what they're focusing in on in local media is the crackdown of the muslim brother mood brothers

of mid ranking leaders. that is what is happening in the military and the establishment. >> with the arrests of the muslim brotherhood and key figures facing treason charge, who is it that the military military-backed prime minister thinks he's inviting to a political dialogue and to join the road map? >> reporter: yes, i mean, we're hearing this more and more, the interim cabinet, different ministers, in fact, talking about the need for reconciliation, the need to invite people into this inclusive political process. but as you said on the other hand actions speak louder than words: and the actions are constant arrests and intimidation of the muslim brotherhood. i think it's interesting what the interim prime minister said. he said there was a need to

reassure the international community. there clearly is an idea in the heads of the cabinet ministers that egypt has an image problem over here. and the idea is if they can get the wheels of the political process spinning you can start having elections, a constitution and so on, then that will detract with what is happening and the end will justify the means, if you like. >> thanks so much. we have this update from cairo from nasr city now. >> reporter: this is the tactic from the nt coup alliance. protests rather than long sit-in protests around cairo or, indeed, other parts of egypt. the security presence in some of those key locations is still very tight. staging those long sit-ins is very difficult if not impossible. the smaller short-lived protests. what they're also say something on friday when they hope to attract much larger

crowds to their protests one of the reasons that they kept those protests short was that they faced some resistence and threats from some people in the communities where the rallies were taking place. while there is no visible sign of security here at the moment in nasr city at this protest, as it has been moving through this neighborhood we have heard from people from the surrounding building shouting anti-morsi comments. >> former president hosni mubarak appear in court on charge of inciting shootings of protesters. >> reporter: he has always opposed the muslim brotherhood, but he has seem untouchable. now the rules of the game has changed. within days of the televised arrest he is now going on trial. other muslim brotherhood leaders

face a series of charges including incitement of killing protesters during mass demonstrations that led to the military coup of mohamed morsi. the pressure will be to provide evidence that will stand up in court. >> under mubarak there was always the possibility to assign judges through the ministry of justice. but they're resisting this, and we have the movement of independence which was 2005 and 2006 con fronted by mubarak, and that spirit remained within the judiciary. while the system of the judiciary never allowed it to be dependent, a great number of judges kept their independence. several judges cooperated in the past, and some of them still exist, but there has been no information on manipulation and trying to assign specific judges in order to give specific

sentences. >> reporter: hosni mubarak will be in court on sunday and also for inciting violence. these are two similar trials involving two foes. >> reporter: popular protests that converged here helped to remove the dictator mubarak and elect mohamed morsi. but now egypt's experiment with democracy has moved from the streets to the courts with the unprecedented observance. >> now reporting a car bomb in damascus has killed several people and wounded many others. the attack happened in a christian district of the capitol. the diplomatic dispute between britain and spain about fishing off the gibraltar is

intensifying. barbara? >> reporter: sammy, madrid has been criticized after spanish police sent divers to inspect an artificial reef at the heart of recent tension. the concrete blocks that make up the reef lying waters that are claimed by the tiny territory. they're calling it a serious violation. we have more. >> reporter: diving deep and creating new controversy. spains police release this video showing divers inspecting the concrete blocks that gibraltar dropped in disputed walters. a photo of an unidentified diver holding the spanish flag appeared on twitter. britain's top official in gibraltar is calling the spanish drive a serious violation of sovereignty.

spanish fishermen have protested against the artificial reef claiming it's harming their livelihoods while spain has caused extra border checks that cause massive traffic. some say only direct talks will diffuse the tension. >> there mustish mutual giving in, if you like, and mutual approach to dialogue. there will always be red lines on each side. what makes this situation complex obviously if the fishing had been prevented by having a large police shift in th ship i, that police ship will go away. but the large reef becomes much more difficult to move around. >> reporter: in an apparent attempt of reconciliation, gibraltagibraltar said that fisn

could return to the waters but it's doubtful whether that idea will still be an offer. >> let's go to russia now where the government is promising to build new barriers to protect it's far eastern region from floods. the area has been hit by waters reaching

reaching. >> they know the waters are coming back. >> the rivers presence is only all too obvious. each day the water is getting deeper, life more difficult and more city streets inaccessible. more shops closed down and livelihoods threatened. they were saving the vodka stock at this grocery store and it's going to get worse, this man said. the russian army has been employed in force and the sandbags can't keep up with the rising waters, reaching 70.3 meters. to these people the uncertainty just continues.

s ... [♪ music ] >> time to look at the headlines now. tens of thousands of people have gathered in washington, d.c. to commemorate 50 years since martin luther king's "i have a dream" speech. the event is considered a milestone in the history of the u.s. civil rights movement. dollardoctors without bordey

they have treated 3600 patients showing neurotoxic symptoms. the reports come as syria faces allegations of use of chemical weapons in an attack on wednesday. another leading figure in the muslim brotherhood has been arrested in egypt. there have been mass funerals for those killed in friday's explosion in tripoli. >> reporter: this is a city in mourning. dozens of victims in friday's mosque bombing in tripoli have been laid to death. lebanese politicians have been calling for restraint. very few are listening.

gunmen brandish their weapons. it is a show of force. these men belong to lebanon's movement, and trip ply is their strong hold. the mosques targeted are frequented by their supporters who have been backing the opposition in neighboring syria. >> we have a message for those responsible for the attacks. if you think this will silence us, it won't. this won't scare us. we'll keep supporting the syrian rebels and stand by our brothers. >> reporter: the bombings were clearly intended to cause maximum casualty. there is unprecedent the security in this volatile city. the lebanese army has beefed up it's presence trying to keep this country together. >> reporter: but gunmen are roaming the treats the streets. they're setting up checkpoints and asking people for their identification papers. they're looking for their enemies. this is a city on the edge.

>> reporter: there has been no claim for the bombings but people have given their verdict. they're blaming the syrian government and their ally hezbollah. a leading cleric went as far to accuse the lebanese state of working against the sunnies. >> the lebanese state are unfortunately arresting our men and collaborating with hezbollah. we demand hezbollah stop fighting. we call on our men to exercise restraint and we'll protect ourselves. >> reporter: another side was less diplomatic. he threatened hezbollah with retaliation. >> they began fight, and we will return as well. they will know in the few coming days they will know. >> reporter: statements like these may be driven by anger, but there is no doubt hatred is growing in a deeply divided country.

al jazeera, tripoli. >> let's take you back to a main story we're following here. the situation in syria, the allegations of the use of chemical weapons, and indications from around the world that they're looking for plans of intervention. let's bring in the director of the center for military political analyst at the hudson institute, a think tank based in washington, d.c. thank you for joining us. first of all what kind of options do you think the obama administration is looking at right now? >> in theory it's the same line that we've been hearing from iran for the past ten years. all options are on the table. but in practice--they first have to decide whether they will use force. and president obama an in some f his public statements indicated he wasn't totally there yet. he's concerned until they're really sure there was government use of chemical weapons, he

would feel uncomfortable. >> why is that warship being sent towards syria, then? >> they're developing a range of options. there are options they can use. there are a span of them. the most aggressive would be to do what they did--the united states did in the case of iraq in 2003, which is occupy the entire country and track down the chemical weapons. now we're not going to do that. you're looking at lesser options. what it looks like the most viable at the moment is to use a cruise missiles strike. we saw these quite frequently in the 1990s in the no-spy zone in the case of iraq. they're accurately targeted thanks to gasp, and there is no risk of american casualties. still there is going to be a risk of civilian casualties near the target area.

there are other concerns that they may not know precisely where all the chemical weapons are. and there's a, of course, a concern that if they hit a storage bin they don't destroy the chemicals. they just disperse them over a white area which would lead to casualties. >> there is a question here. once you get into that, can you limit the goal of any military intervention simply to be targeting suspected chemical weapons? will the u.s. be dragged into a situation where they feel they have to go after the assad regime? >> well, that's a great question, and i assume they're asking. let's say they launch a cruise missile where they destroy some target, and then it escalates and think need more chemical weapons. then what do they do. just launching the cruise missiles they could say, we destroyed in that capacity to use them in any

meaningful way, and that's enough. we managed to save civilians with intervening war. they have been able to do that with airstrikes. destroy limited targets, wmd sites, for example. we have the example of israeli in the syrian nuclear reactor. i don't think it would require these steps but it is moving towards that line. >> it took the u.s. four months to investigate the use of chemical weapons. how soon would we be looking at military intervention if it does come? >> to be definitive they probably would not be able to get the information. they would have to have information from the ground and intercepting communication, telephones confirming the regime ordered their use. but they might decide justifying

an act to prevent fumble casualtcasual--further casualtit in retaliation but to prevent further use. if you destroy the chemical weapons now, set aside who is responsible. >> thanks so much for your thoughts on that. >> thank you. >> disgraced chinese politician bo xilai admits he made mistakes and was careless with public money but denies embezzlement. he is facing a number of charge as leader of one of the largest cities in china. a top aid has been testifying against him in the court of jinan. >> reporter: they occupied high office together. on saturday they occupied the same courtroom. bo xilai confronted by his aid, the time he was moved by his boss when he went to his wife that she was a murderer.

she hampered his offices attempts to investigate the murder. bo's wife said that she was being framed, and he later dismissed him from his post. it was a move designed to end the murder investigation. >> at the request of both the prosecution and the defense, they asked him to testify. he remained on the witness stand for one-half hours with the prosecutor and the defense questioning him in detail. >> reporter: what went on in the exchange to the public remains unknown. cross-examining a man who helped him to embezzle $800,000 of public money. bo said he never would have been so stupid and blamed his wife, by then angry about his infidelity, but he regretted not preventing her misconduct. they left in blacked out advance

in a day where the defense started to sustain it's first real cracks. >> reporter: so this extraordinary trial moves into its fourth day. by comparison, the killing of neil hayward was over in a few hours. they decided to do it differently this time allowing defense and opens to give greater weight to the eventually conviction. al jazeera, jinan. >> let's head back over to barbara in europe for other news from europe. >> reporter: thank you. let's start with the tiny cluster of islands between iceland and norway. the faroe islands are home to 48,000 people. but al jazeera reports, the population will fall even further if more of their young people can't be convinced to

stay. >> reporter: in the middle of the north atlantic is a group of islands shrouded in fog and mist. not many people live here. those that do catch fish in the fjords and keep sheep on the mountains. it's not easy. many young people move away. [♪ singing ] johan wants to pursue his dreams in music and journalism. soon he'll be off to democrat mark. of his high school class of 20 only three will stay in the faroes. >> the general consensus of everyone that is roughly around my age is that moving out of the country is the best option for anyone who wants to study anything, also because of housing prices, things like that, living in the faroes is extremely expensive. >> reporter: to understand the faroes' demographic challenge

you need to challenge to the smaller outer islands. this is a village a, and what is sad about it is that no one lives here any more. the last people left about 15 years ago. it just felt too isolated, and there are orvilleages like this in the faroes today, remote communities with declining populations all facing a very uncertain future. olaf christensen comes back to the village to collect hay for the animals and remember the place where he grew up, but he doesn't expect to see people living here again. i met a couple with a typical story. their two grown-up sons are in denmark with young families and busy lives. so do they believe their sons will ever live here again? >> i do have that hope, yes. >> i do not i think they will stay abroad.

i've accepted the fact that we will now grow old alone in the faroe islands. [♪ music ] >> reporter: there is a thriving art scene on the faroes, and some of those who go away in their 20s do come back to raise their families. but this will always feel like a place that is on the edge of the world. that's its draw back, but also it's charm. al jazeera, on the faroe islands. >> beautiful pictures. that's it from europe. now let's go back to doha. >> thanks, barbara. still to come this news hour, the bengal tiger baby boom in baghdad.

when people need to be heard,

>> welcome back. now for something that you really don't see every day. footage from a tribe of the amazon who has lived in isolation for decades. we report from peru. [ yelling ] >> reporter: on the banks of a river deep in the amazon rain forest they appeared, first the men, around 30, and then the women and the children. for three days in late july nearly 100 members of the tribe made this unusual appearance. they live in southeastern peru near the border of brazil, but they've hardly ever been seen before. a guard from a nearby watch post recorded the moment.

uncontacted tribes lives in isolation. peru's laws for bid anyone to get near them. they're so vulnerable, a simple form of diarrhea could bring annihilation. they seem cautious, distrustful and apparently hungry. like other tribes from the region they are know mads traveling over areas rich in gas reserves. anthropologists says logging, mining, and oil exploration projects are also affecting the ecosystem crucial for their survival. >> the ecosystem is so fragile in the area. if a helicopter flies over the zone that scars the animals away and that means they won't be able to hunt for food. >> reporter: years ago the government authorized companies

to exploit gas in some of these areas. former president garcia said what benefits a few could not interfere with investments that would benefit the toronto. while gas companies continue to work in the region, they bite on roots. in july they demanded bananas and ropes. community leader thinks the sighting was a message. >> it's a clear message they are saying this is our territory, and you have no right to be here. they want to live how they have chosen to live. >> reporter: anthropologists say the rare sighting is a warning. these communities have survived furthers of intrusion by western man, but that could be changing in many ways. lima, peru. >> the world wildlife fund say there are just 2,000 bengal tigers left in the wild, and 200 in captivity. now they're having something of

a baby boom, you could say, but not quite what you might imagine. we report from baghdad. >> reporter: this is one of the rarest animals in the world, and one of the newest residents of the baghdad zoo. he's a white bengal tiger. the rarest type of an endangered breed. he and his sister were born here three months ago. their keeper is waiting for their personalities to develop before he names them. >> if they are a bit menacing, then we'll call them a certain type of name. if they're calm, we'll choose something else. it depends on the personality. >> reporter: they have not been shown to the public yet. zoo keepers have been keeping a particularly close eye on this white tiger cub, not just because he's rare. because of the inbreeding and genetic mutation white tigers have weaker immune systems, and the keeper has been with him 24

hours a day. >> reporter: the story with these tigers start with the shooting. in 2003 an american soldier drinking in the zoo put his fingers in the tiger's cage. when it bit him one of his bud buddy's shot the animal. >> i think from in this place. when we finished we found the bullet. >> reporter: wildlife sanctuary in north carolina later donated a pair of bengal tigers to make up for it. one of them was reilly eating his lunch of donkey meat. five years and many litters later the zoo has 12 bengal tigers including the white cub born when reilly and one of his daughters mated. there are also five siberian

tigers. the zoo would like to avoid inbreeding but they don't have enough space to separate the tigers. >> 12 is a large number of one species in the zoo. we also have lions of a high number. perhaps we could exchange tigers or lions for other animals. >> reporter: they say they won't breed the white tiger. they hope he'll grow up as strong as the rest of his breed. >> well now russian president vladimir putin has taken the issue decree that of a ban that will run for two and a half months. gay rights activists planned to hold a march on the putin's so-called gay propaganda.

vladimir putin is taking the games very seriously. >> basically any global event taking place in russia like, i don't know, g-8 summit or world athletic championship that just happened here in moscow, is perceived in a way of some sort of military operation i would say demanding a curfew or some special operation. it's like demanding total order. but the olympics is very special even in this usual context of how russia athletes global trea. it's like the main event of all of putin's era, and it's very personal. you can look at it this way. on 14th year of putin's rule this is his only obvious and real achievement. so he will have to sell it big.

he will not let any unsanctions activity in sochi around it during all this time. this is very obvious. but it's not about specifically about waiting for gay communities protests and rallies. that's what i think. it's not even an authoritarian move. it's more of a soviet way of dealing with global world. >> already, grand prix fans let's find out what is going on in that and other sports. >> taking position four in gra d prix. the three-time defending world champion sebastian was second. and hamilton, it's his fourth consecutive pole position.

>> i think when i started the lap i was a little like on the border. i saw on the screen that i was seventh o or eighth. i thought, oh my god. i went wide in turn one, and my dash display was usually telling you you're up or down. it said i was three seconds down, five seconds, six seconds. i didn't understand what was going on in the lap. but i kept pushing, and i could see i was catching sebastian in the end. what a blessing. i feel so fortunate to be up here. >> and it's two for liverpool n the english premiere league. they have a 1-0 win at aston villa.

it's been quite a gathering of tennis in new york head of the u.s. open. the tennis ranking system is 40 years old and current and former world number ones were collected. before they were ranked by their popularity. now a more scientific system is in place. >> there is this drive to wake up every morning and work so hard to develop the skills to be number one in the world. not many players have achieved that, and to be able to see to it with fellow champions, it's an incredible feeling. it's a long history and tradition, i'm happy to be here. >> we'll be back with another full bulletin of news following up with all those stories we were telling you about. that's just in a couple of minutes so don't go too far.
