the or the a. wind and the have to be one hundred to have gone through whole the whole thing in marking data spare hoping no one will ride for how. i will have a feeling it's a need to. be proud of should i always get that from the next. does the head that. this does a death but that sick kids. and that's when. she . got to do something about it you know i don't know how could it be. it's made up so you. must call. him my number one because.

of my god. i'm going to. have you know if i'm going to have been center of him up a couple of bucks and i was in all. that ice and about how to see that i yes. that's the seven and honest. and we had other you just met first suddenness as if when i was it had. been i was it had a nice i had a good time on an impact. in twenty i love it for young on many women decided to break the mold challenge stereotypes and learn to sail. it's

a world that can be dominated by men but it was shot in tucson and a side made up the crew of. their boat were named after a constellation of stars. i don't look at them. but i know a lot of them. but run over them what a god not hostile to have any good to carry i can't say hey i've got to go to her how to do my gun evidence not even i would have my name to us and going to be it i knew that i had been very different to how one can white cotton. that it just so awful to had to look at us as a little. even that was a pattern that i says and that i was the. land in the. midst of i was do that in this should. have been

a comedy show. i know we. had if it had. just been santa ana so i think. one of. the. people giving. me to get what so we could get that he bought. from. me and the bottle when all the stuff.

on the north. team for one mowed the hut on one the pot. in the loft. is funded by the government and started in two thousand and eight its stated aim is to revive our month's merry time heritage promote the country internationally and quote use the power of sport to contribute to the development of the people. they're calling it by death now and then i. thought oh but my mind if. let's say gallant if you have been there and. that they're fighting well.

i know that i know that i've used them all up till now i've dumped enough of the. well had been a woman didn't. need a damn time i need to have. a william from a bank to consign home collapsed on him and all of that interview in a column w. that. when i joined the company a year and a half ago those women would just starting to do some racing and it was just a one off opportunity but then they did so well the idea was such

a good one that it was decided we should we should let them continue they enjoyed it. it's hard work but they seem to like. this point here we. want. the so mad. about. men who've been out to look on and. get on the ice

the minute. and make him to tell us about. the had been feeble gone mad. almost anything mr with a. bit of an exam by williamson within a week. son i am in bed. with dad and have. been i was just thought about i'd forgotten. that i thought us. feel lost about all sorts. yet the but i thought. i would just work with us on what is

a book and must. come with it then the has the thoughts i would in a can another and in sleep would. have been a part of the brain and had i would not. be young women how to pass an initial training stage in order to be accepted at home and sail. like a. mobile again but not. under seal but had come to look i'm. just a. kid doesn't agree why we got on with the guy getting over and why every day when you get. there with a wife you got a good fantasy but at the end it was a matinee with a. smile and a thing and wife but i don't wear the one. of the any any local t.v. . and hand can watch

a video grab me on the shouting about you make sure your flea. gets a more typical laugh from those on most of us and why should i go with all that. we have that's going to make the high forwards of our. well. you have. met. hayden is says progress out at sea was unfortunately affected by an untimely illness but the company offered her a job on dry land in the education center now she teaches young children about the sea and tries to inspire other young armani's to get involved in sailing. i think it would be a complete episode up. when this is. not about

a survivor or one of them it's again the elec and. then there's the how. of them. a man has over three thousand kilometers of coastline and so has always had a close relationship with the sea and not just through fishing. pearl diving goes back centuries before the common era and the ancient probe ground stretched along the arabian gulf coast beyond the strait of hormuz that separates it from do you know. by the one thousand nine hundred twenty two centuries gulf pearls were among the most highly sought after and brought in considerable revenue . but pearl diving was an exclusively male domain.

for mr aslan in this. i think. and i think that having them up and get ready. to hold the whole together. it was an. award. this stereotype is that men go to sea to fish and that women stayed home to keep house. but some parts of our many society have always challenged that common beliefs and then wish them and they get. the ability i think a. good. model for if you don't mind

that have. he. thought would be you. know our money in the. gulf countries to change is a question they wrestle with on an almost daily basis how to maintain traditions in the face of rapid growth and minors station and how to balance local values with outside influences. different countries adopt varying approaches as do individual families. and.

so we. could all. i believe that you hate the livest you know one of these oh a small one hundred was you know lived wind up in numbers.

and what. kind of a self was not a monthly and perhaps i'm only. trying to build the landmark there is a little arsenal given what you get on a shuttle that you managed to start up back in handy now and it's just one unlucky so i got a sudden hate that hell of a party now hello you know why. you got out of work it is now madam show you the how. you get it but. there is a girl in the lot that were there you know how they say because in the last one was here a shocker at a game how good it was a good ten and a half good yet you had big you got rich with all the hell you could was there my leg because i got lucky it perhaps the bad of you move a little one well if you get

a good deal of you more who are you are you got the gun knows it or much of it but . it can it does your well i don't know ruger. i think the reaction has been great because i think the most important thing that we've shown people with very very. women's program and that's not just the race team but all all the program is you can be a very. good woman in a traditional sense you know you can you can be. a wife you can be your daughter you can be a mother but you can also have this adventure you can also learn to sail and teach other people than inspire people and i think because we've shown that you can do both. you can still you can still be a good i'm only a woman and also a very talented sailor going off around the world showing no showing everybody how

how strong our money people are. the young women and their families had to think carefully about the effect their certainly would have on family life and whether it might affect their marriage prospects or responsibilities in the future. to let us know how but i thought up a clip of a silent miscall and then. as work with what i want to have the. results have been a man are these are what was the good best this apart what i. was sure that we are has been and good to validly haematoma haven't. got. one bad day off. or any. ahead. and when any within. a so we saw

what has happened and whether it should helo it up and how the. role models are important in sport especially for young people. the most successful sportswoman in our man has been the tennis player fatme and the planning . and then the kids and i took up one of her new year and they were them up with its manila's that within a woman a woman can within her make even a normal reality. ac with me that's woman salary of a kid in that when the article nearly forgot the land. here we know so i thought i set up and there how. someone who didn't how most women if they learn some fun or. assure us enough of my number on here. i meant that there are women a girl is a lucky woman that got away with her cell phone where. the heck couldn't go had run

out of it. at the one that's them. and their pennies are man's number one tennis player she started playing at the age of four and at her best in two thousand and ten was ranked three hundred sixty two in the world. she still plays an international tennis federation tournament and is a successful doubles player winning in las palmas in spain in august twenty seventh . for as she is a role model. have a lie have a set of free will i met them and sell them i can invest in the falcon i can on someone for. one above and a half record i have a stake in the fair and then the second that you figure in the chill fifi head funny. nickel boma and. out of beer and say it's anecdotal and i to man and can feel mom my fucking of us and them and fuck my dad

and so. public support from high profile figures like phantom and the planning did not guarantee except in a by every sector of our money society. even the men's team sometimes the tracks opposition. and then he gives them into fire that we were just in the stimulant to call that down on the money or how the. footman is a in the mess an artist and was early on in the saddle i had the full lend or well hello earth in the my bed and shovel full of. been done. to her but for. my fee she ya need to hunt for.

or how the she took off never. is that an office of the kind with. the within. them and the what going under. in a lot of on a shoot or how. many in the. with and. not them at the what's my home for them michael free to what could be a common what's. going on and how. they can when they're out of going out and. the girls come along and they work just as hard as the boys and if they lose to the boys then they say right tomorrow you know tomorrow we were and so it's it's it's it's interesting all i see is someone who's driven someone who's committed and somebody wants to work so i find it very

difficult to tell them apart to be honest. coming up in part two these are many women became about something more than just going out to sea in boats. one of them has been with. maybe not the sort i had wanted been. in number four. and know for us and what i've been kind of. and the impact made when they took part in international competitions at the end of the. going up to the gold. respect you know well

you know you have all respect i have for twenty five years you've been saving for one year. bigger and potentially more dangerous that's the best way to describe what's happening with a smoking alternative known as favorite i enjoy the taste of it and not get the harmful effects of what smoking does between two thousand and thirteen and two thousand and fourteen a lone star tripling in use among us high school students and head to head comparison ysaye versus conventional cigarette which one do you think has helped my opinion i think they're both dangerous take no at this time and else is in. the nature news as it breaks it's an estimated ten million children of school age

are still roaming the streets of baghdad with details coverage children what i'm off base and number of serious problems from chronic child malnutrition to a stream poverty from around the world trade one is last us lawsuit in two thousand and ten by the needs fed more than twenty billion dollars in legal fees. natural capital the capital which makes a creative. when nature is transformed into a commodity big business takes a new interest buying landscapes protecting landscapes it's a phenomenal opportunity to be able to use a business model to achieve sustainability of nature but at what risk banks of course don't do that because they have at the heart protection of nature they do that because to see a businessman crossing the planet as this time on al-jazeera. al-jazeera

. it's. with every. hello again i'm fully back to go with the headlines on al-jazeera kurdish fighters have called on civilians to volunteer to form a human shield around the syrian city of a free in as turkish forces advance al-jazeera has heard reports that women's and community groups have responded to the calls to send free syrian army fighters are

hundred seventy kilometers from mumbai those are the headlines al-jazeera world continues next. four young women in our mine took part in a government initiative to widen their horizons and develop their skills by training to sail competitively. it was part of an ongoing national strategy to put a man on the global map and open up opportunities for young armani's even if it meant challenging some gulf stereotypes. the crew and the boat took their name. from a constellation of stars. but they mean on live how to lie down and me the law of. but a condition of the for a year by then. all the chaos and then i go hard

old of such if i'm with them a lot of it before if cornel is more thorough here who is a midget then. home because we had forty of us one is a grissom a month at. yeah and they fred and. when the air crew took part in the muskets regatta in twenty eleven it was their first big race as a team. of the cut. point. market there were an awful lot of assigning apparently lower and lower gun that he can then you know what it was about the contents and will continue.

sampling can be a sport for different shapes and sizes as with other sports mental resilience is just as if not more important than physical strength. not a bad sport for women because you don't have to be the strongest if you're strong helps but there's positions on the boat where actually we need someone to be as small as possible we need the tallest we need the smallest we need someone strong we need someone very gentle the most important thing you need for sailing is you need a good mind if you go to a good mind and you can understand the game then when there's a position on the boat for you to ten men ships ten men a little high and it. will be it will be can he. ten men going

any. team walk american head going to get the. idea and so we. want to we have never thought of head. places that have a good. any the other bit any of the anything i've said about the said. he does this about. to happen that maggot is at the head of the fattest slave there is at the head of the earth to live in the. catholic church and. to head for the i would have to had that women in sailing in general there is the perception that women are not as strong. and nor does dedicated and therefore they'll be they'll be easy to beat but we've had a wonderful some of this year with the girls of going round to europe on good

racing and they competed in a world championship and there was at the end of the regatta there were male teams going up to the girls and saying to them ok respect you know well done you know you have all respect i have been sailing for twenty five years you've been sailing for one year. and you beat me and hopefully you know the goals realize that even though you're starting in a position where people don't believe that you will be a good competitor when you are they are so impressed that you have their respect for life.

the my. uncle and one. and it's going to. let any one get out that they could have loved the didn't bit the foreign policy doctors say and if so what you did how did. she seem mean arabia tore it in two thousand and twelve started and. went past. and the united arab emirates and didn't know how much. for the women joined for professionals for the race to make a crew of eight. but

often out of us without a stimulus. think the head of it and make out of. mad men because that rabbit. out of the fastball we use it. in though it into our bobbin and our sauce it's all our own thoughts a lot of the ma. kind of. welcome and. or credit to dick a father here. but. i don't adamson our family have been what i have. and it has a. lot

of professionals. in. a sauce with up. the months going to. suck up to most of what the. father of a but enjoy has been spotted in the a sausage for thought he. had to live and he only had. some money you know it at the tab for the money but it hasn't been any it and it will be fully a month and he's going to. but to get started at the top on the right look i'm not going to. send you an inch and so what i'll. give in so we listen to each other. with it and and so we judge and come and. and you've gotten full aka.

apart from gender driving motivation and the mix and chemistry of the team are all key factors in mold seen a successful crew. the hadn't been in an unknown a common no but. what's the how much a woman of the city. where she father was sent home to lend them money for if they. want to have one also have to buy in the uk each one is a little different. they're all very individual we have some girls who are very very quiet very calm under pressure but inside they're all thinking when it goes badly for them we make a mistake we don't do very well you really see them getting upset we have all the

girls that always like to joke and always like to turn everything into a smile and laughter but when we start the race. everyone becomes very serious and everyone becomes very very driven on that as there is always an atmosphere of next time we do even better next time we do it better. as well as empowering these young armani women in ways they didn't imagine possible sandlin enabled them to develop as people.

away to share any of that i have a teeny kid my nephew been ascii much to my your oid mishandling of anatomy and pain they had somehow found to be any. good on the continent j.t. on a was a me. and professional. so why not the. assessment . officer welcome to one charity ward for our hundred the one of j. toward job not hands and well had to say when. someone. would have been hard

to come to know but scum of having to been at the moment and bella hanna a dreadful bit medline a good lesson she is so we don't that lohan wouldn't. get invalid handful of unwanted so sitting out when he was in. as was the first woman sailing team in the whole gulf region. they set out to change perceptions of women in the region by doing the same thing as the men in the same conditions. but it was about more than just yacht racing they wanted to move barriers to achieve something different. has been with. well i don't know. maybe not the sort i had been with. the. unknown for us

and what i've been kind of. for. a full manassas. and now to be. told. the decision to have. any. effect. on. the. first sales competitively in two thousand and twelve in july twenty third. in the world competition i must say. a month later she became the first of many women to compete in the fastnet race in our minds flagship boat.

or. we send them and who are caught a. because of the britney the know how that caught a. lot of. them. when you can't watch it for any welcome to. any model for no. see the. but how. about a. motivational. talk and so we would be fired hams and i know you cannot or. or sydney or

but i soon come on and come to learn or i want. done or. said i want to comment about what i. thought it meant because. they're not a bit. a lot of cover it comes. in two thousand and thirteen was the first time i had competed outside the. size of. going to france was a. double

come. the rest got and so we did rebut that seebach shark at will and. i have. done sheriff a dolla. and sheriff. and so and so was so so in just almost i went in just for the simple reason so we say and you know if you've been out there a host of how to deal with. the law and then going back to the scene and our friends that would end but if you. and. your blood into don't get much out there much i'd rather you and. and what would you. rather than. let it come back to american most only but when i

can but i do know he. doesn't and if you. got my behavior. i went. through good will. give it to you. it cannot be. what i would really what i would really like the authorising to do and if i if i leave him on sale twenty years' time you know look back what i want the author writing to do is to show other people women men that this is a good adventure it's hard work but if you work hard you race against other people around the world and you earn their respect there is there is nothing better

than it is something really special to have people say. well you know you were impressive you really you know i respect your talent and that's what this team is about it's about hopefully some children looking at the team and think it will maybe maybe that is for me maybe i should work hard enough that i can go to a world championship with your mom flag or you know on my back and show everybody how strong we can be. as today and gradually began to see themselves as role models and that they had a responsibility to send example to other young are many women who might follow in their footsteps in the future. and that can sell human am i when mario money at the phone and a relative. and kid i thought that they landed in. my city

but the big thing for all of us and that's the same for the girls is hopefully we don't want to be the only thing we want to show everybody that it's possible it's possible to be to be a good arab woman and to be fantastic athlete as well they are both very possible so the more teams the more happy we are and shyla atlantic wolf you. can be come in. for a common walk the one out of via. a day in jazz mama kind of changes pretty cool. out of.

there another snow maker is developing across north america we can see in the satellite picture plenty of cloud in the southern part of our map and it's this area here that's really developing pushing its way towards the northeast and on its northern flank is where we're going to see the wintery weather that's in the eastern parts of the states there as we head through monday and then it works its way northward to choose day giving some heavy snowfall for the northeastern part of the u.s. and the eastern parts of canada including for us in auto and meanwhile towards the west generally quite quiet for many of us until later in the day when we'll see

some rain gradually work its way into that west coast and some of that is likely to be rather heavy a bit further towards the south and the wet weather here is affecting us as well you can see it just getting its way down through parts of cuba and across the bahamas as well that systems are still with us during the day on monday and just sinking a little bit further towards the south it stretches further westwards too so for belize and down through guatemala we're likely to see a fair amount of cloud and a few outbreaks of rain to the south america when it's fine unsettled in the south what is always there up at twenty four degrees so that's a seventy five in fahrenheit a fine weather continues with us as we had three choose day but for tuesday the northern parts of argentina will see more showers and there we stretching up into parts of paris whitey.
