they've had for dross but i didn't have the day when what when it comes to most work i'm not too worried they are in good hands there is enough quality on this team to pull them through ok big talking point this weekend here and we've got berlin how to berlin taking a knee like us football players american football players what's that all about what's reaction so the reactions have been mainly very positive. i mean in the world of football people where joking about it even saying that hey you know had to have been in does make international headlines for the first time and when they do it's not because of the great performances on the few but it's because of their political stance which is also why some people have questioned the action say hey is this a publicity stunt is this kind of marketing or is this really you know assistance here gesture i'm going to let you know the audience decide that's not for me to decide but and also terry do keep in mind that when it comes to the buddhists the

league absolutely bans political and religious messages but they did if he even went soft on hand tweeting coming out what is it the day before yesterday and saying that hey we stand for leave behind their actions so they have the full support of the d.f.t. and it doesn't look like they'll be punished good question is that a political action thank you david said it was more of a had to do more with human rights it's a human rights it's more but that in itself everything is political etc you know it's i'm sorry to say that he even in sports ok finally that's where you buy and ended up being a great weekend for by and because they won and well the leaders dortmund last could you high and kiss have had a better start to his return i mean it was an amazing start you know but let's be honest it was against high book and try book on exactly you know the best as a measuring stick for a team like by and munich but i think more importantly what i found really exciting about all of this is that it's been a very long time. terry since we've seen

this is d.w. news coming to you live from berlin austria shifts to the right conservative whiz kid sebastian cortes looks set to become the next leader of austria he did it by embracing the policies of the far right where does this leave the rest of europe also coming up. fudge catalonia is separatist leader fails to give a clear answer on his plans for independence will the spain's with the spanish prime minister now make good on his threats to take back control and germany social

democrats be chancellor merkel's party into second place in a key regional election result could weaken michael's hand ahead of national coalition talks set to start this week. and one of the talking points from the weekend's blueness league action was the berlin team's simple act of the kneeling was it support for american athletes doing likewise or just blatant headline grabbing. hello i'm terry martin good to have you with us. he promised to shake up austrian politics any appears to have done just that thirty one year old sebastian cortes is on track to become the country's next leader near final results from sunday's election put his conservative people's party in first place but also claiming victory as the far right freedom party once shunned as too radical by europe they

could now play kingmaker in austria's new government. they call him ven divert c. the whiz kid at thirty one the conservative sebastian cortes becomes europe's youngest head of government promising a new kind of politics. today we have a strong mandate to change this country and i thank you for making that possible you must. know that. the far right freedom party led by hans christian strata achieved close to the best result in its history and looks most likely to form a coalition with the conservatives both parties that campaigned against immigration and islamic the will for change in austria is widespread and strong a series of scandals hammered the social democrats of outgoing chancellor christian can he's now facing a spell in opposition. it's about defending modern diverse

and democratic austria that will be needed more than ever in the next five years. yet another surprise came for the greens their vote fell by nearly two thirds making even their presence in the next parliament uncertain. wrangling over the shape of the next coalition can now begin to lift the far rights likely return to governments in wealthy austria will worry a european union already unsettled by brics it and rising extremism. d.w. correspondent max hoffman has been covering those elections for us in austria and joins us now from vienna max the conservatives don't have a majority to govern alone is it clear that they're going to form a coalition with the right wing freedom party. sébastien courts wouldn't rule out any options on sunday night but if you look closely there really aren't that many options of course he could continue the so-called grand coalition

with the social democrats but he's the one to effectively kill it and that possibility isn't very popular with austrians and that really effectively realistically only leaves one option on the table a coalition with the extreme right wing with the freedom party and if you look at that campaign they seem quite close a lot of people even say that sébastien quotes took more than one page out of the playbook of the freedom party back stay with us of us in quotes spoke to the media following those election results so let's listen to what he had to say for a moment. and i won't change my policy regarding the refugee issue but i will always remain a pro european and help to shape your us to this result gives us the possibility to do this even more powerfully than in the past and i already look forward to cooperating with the german chancellor and her teen. boss in costa talking about migration well max is still with us there in in vienna max i get them

sebastian quotes as hardline stance against migration how does he hope to work with german chancellor angela merkel especially if he's in a coalition with the all right. well word has it that i'm going to machall wasn't really thrilled when sebastian courts as foreign minister back then sat down with other foreign ministers of the balkan countries to effectively close that western balkans route where syrians came through to germany that was against the policy of angular machall at the time but other than that they don't they didn't have that much to do with each other because of course about their courts it was foreign minister i'm going to medical head of government in germany so it's not the same level that will change now but at least i got a machall has proven in the past that she can work together with all kinds of heads of state and government including donald trump including theories i may of great britain including along to france so it's very likely that they will make it work

somehow ok let's look at the bigger picture here max so you spend a lot of time looking at european affairs here are cheap brussels correspondent what does this austrian election result tell us about europe's political trajectory what we're looking at that the moment is not only on a european level but also within countries there's a rift between those that embrace migration they embrace globalization they embrace the digitalized world and then you have those that don't and they fear for their identity usually it's the national identity not necessarily the your european identity and those are represented mostly by eastern european countries like hungary like poland the czech republic slovakia and maybe now also by austria and if you look at the european union they will have to somehow bridge this gap if they want to make it work somehow reach out to those people that are afraid of what's coming in the future afraid of the world that is appearing the digitalized world

and those that embrace it and wants to take advantage of it so in short european union it has to make sure it can take advantage of the digitalized world not lose touch with it and at the same time soothe the anxiousness that you have in many countries. max thank you so much the that was fact max hoffman there in the area now moving on to spain spain has heard back now from the cattle on government demanding that the region clarify whether it has declared independence or not but cattle on president collis put him on did little to explain the regions a condition in a letter he did not answer yes or no over the question of independence instead put him on has called for two months of dialogue well spanish prime minister mariano mariano rajoy has previously rejected talks he warned that if catalonia declares independence madrid could suspend the regional government

well for the very latest now let's cross over to the catalan capital barcelona where d.w. correspondent barbara faisal is standing by barbara put him up has given a response but he still hasn't given a clear answer as to whether or not he's declared independence so why is he playing his cards so close to his chest. he's playing a game terry that says show me your curds to run hard but i won't show you mine really what this is is a holding game pushing on is trying to find some wiggle room to manipulate himself to extricate himself from the impossible political trap that he has gotten into because basically whatever he does it's wrong if he was draws independence his own left wing parties to support his minority government will kill him if he says it to madrid ok i i go on was meant was independence let's do it what his leftist supporters want and his own base from the ones that madrid will say ok bye bye put

him on to this is the end of us a political figure we just sort of take out your government we call for elections so what he's trying to do is just gain time ok so push him on his given a statement but he hasn't just explained in the statement whether they've declared independence or not how is that likely to go down in madrid. this was the first thing he did was he's written a letter to madrid that became public in the local media he might later give a statement to the public at large and try to explain his position more or less he will have to do that however madrid of course will just try get shoulders and say we could have talked before all this happened but if you basically what he does is trying to. talk now and say let's not talk about independence let's that's just talk about having

a talk together that really creates that really creates problems for him because madrid says return to the rule of law we're not going to talk on this basis you just have to withdraw and so basically this is not going to achieve anything put in mind is playing a game that he can really not possibly win under the circumstances politically he is more or less gone so madrid is definitely not going to be happy with that answer as it stands right now what's what about the mood there on the streets of barcelona are catalonians happy with the situation. not at all people here seem really worried because what they saw in the meantime after we've heard like the street fighting here and this illegal referendum what people saw is the economic fallout and it's tremendous quite several hundred firms and companies have said we're going to move away from here if you continue like this verse alone has seen tourism fall off the cliff which is very serious for the cities

a big exhibition might possibly not come to the city after this so the economic fallout is tremendous which makes people very worried and it the feeling is like after a heavy night out is the political hangover people said now what really did we do what has happened here and what is in the future very worried but people are waiting for what's going to happen barbara thank you so much to barbara basal there in barcelona. political hangover economic fallout doesn't sound good investment and companies leaking out of the catalan region i understand helena has more terry is certainly a massive headache we're going to look now at some of the details because it's spain's worst political crisis in decades of business that certainly isa good and now of course investors will have to deal with two more months of uncertainty after catalonia leda con is preaching one proposed independence negotiations in the weeks

ahead political dialogue now meanwhile many businesses have already had enough with seen forty four major companies move their headquarters out of catalonia since the result of that referendum most of them went to madrid among them gas not to annoy a baetis sell next and colonial they're all big names they're listed on spain's main stock index the ibex that he five and also gone all the big banks kai share is now headquartered in valencia sabot there in kente and in fact only one listed firm that's the drug make a graceful still remains in catalonia and other companies that are leaving accounts approximately one hundred and fifty fowls and jobs and we're talking about a combined net profit of eight billion euros last year alone

a worst of all all of this coming as a total surprise to many in catalonia. it sounded so good spain's economically strongest region freed from any financial commitment to the rest of the country the downsides not according to those who spearheaded the independence movement. that there is so much fear so much fear and they are saying the banks would leave it alone no banks will leave it alone or do you think they will leave and of course they won't but they will stay they will stay not to help us but because it is in their own interest we know that much. gets near us three years now i've got a dark. room and. turns out the banks aren't staying there among forty four companies that have moved away since

the referendum over two thousand smaller ones had already left over the past two years for good reason says joseph. he runs a bakery chain and serves as president of the car saloni and business association. it would affect all cattle when companies it would mean a loss of markets. is made up of the twenty seven nations to which we set out i mean that was we get big issues with orders systems and taxes we will loose competitive and us. you know say the most competent people. being locked out of the e.u. would be a problem for the baker and maybe more so for the banker kaiser bank one of the country's big four announced its move to valencia only days after the referendum desperate to calm clients into the business so far were calm but as soon as we perceive any kind of uncertainty for you maybe we will get our money out of there.

this is tim doesn't inspire confidence in me and so that's why i decided to withdraw all my savings. tension mimes many fear a piece of scenes like these in barcelona last week the prospect of big business is leaving has left some catalans ready to follow the big corporations move away from home. well here in germany a question mark also hanging in the air over the composition of the country's next government and the results of a regional election yesterday terry was certainly important in that that's right helen a bit of a surprise upset too because a couple weeks ago looked like the conservatives were going to win there but that didn't turn out to be the case chancellor i'm going to michael's conservatives have taken a drubbing in a key regional action the vote in germany second largest state lower saxony saw her c.d.u. lose to the social democrats the result is good news for michael's former coalition partners who did poorly in last month's federal election. yes the social

democrats haven't forgotten how to party just three weeks after their worst election results in modern german history the s.p.d. years back coming out as the strongest party in lower saxony for the first time in nearly twenty years. as a fitting you know i think this is a great evening for the s.p.d. in lower saxony and for me many thanks to the voters but also to my party members who fought passionately he lied and it came to. it's a remarkable turnaround in the summer of the s.p.d. he was far behind in polling the victory in lower saxony was badly needed after party leader martin schulz his historic defeat in the bonus talk elections. i think you know sing in austin and what the social democrats achieved in lower saxony is unique in the history of election campaigns in germany and we're not i mean thankful but we're also very proud and very happy about this great success i think

in the. close enough or pretty is pretty bleak candidate band monitors conservative c.d.u. party last two percent scoring their lowest results in almost twenty years. he said that to me or not to english as rationally i would have wished for a better result for the c.d.u. party in lower saxony. but let me be absolutely clear about this we do not have to be ashamed about tonight's results misson via hopes that. the result weakens chancellor merkel who is facing a difficult time at the negotiating table. another party got a big bump out of the results the far right don't turn it for germany won seats in the regional parliament for the first time that means it's now represented in fourteen federal states of germany. as well the stories making headlines around the world today iraq says iraq state.

it says government troops have taken control of areas around the kurdish held city of kirkuk kurdish officials have reported clashes there but this was denied by iraqi authorities the operation comes three weeks after iraq's autonomous kurdish region voted for independence kurdish troops seized the oil rich city in two thousand and fourteen during the fight against so-called islamic state but a swathe of president nicolas maduro has hailed the results of regional elections his ruling party won nearly all twenty three contested state governorships opposition leaders say have said they suspect election fraud independent polls have projected the opposition would win a majority due to a duros or handling of venezuela's economic crisis. and filipino security officials have said the last remaining leaders of an islamist militant group laying siege to the southern city of morale we have been killed the two brothers were aligned with

so-called islamic state they were killed in a military operation after a tip off from a rescued hostage. the somali government says the number of people killed in a truck bomb attack over the weekend has gone up to two hundred seventy eight another three hundred are injured the bombing occurred in a busy commercial district of the capital mogadishu it's the deadliest single attack in the country's history the government has declared three days of mourning . the crowd marched and chanted against the islam ist militant group al-shabaab. the group has staged similar attacks before but never at this scale as well as those killed hundreds more were seriously injured. so. it was a massacre what happened yesterday and i never saw such a thing in the last twenty seven years i witnessed a little boy's head laying on the ground and his mother and other children with

their heads were also caught in the explosion. police said a truck packed with hundreds of kilos of explosives blew up outside a hotel at a busy intersection in downtown mogadishu close to government offices embassies restaurants and kiosks the blast flattened several buildings and set a nearby fuel tanker on fire rescue workers said it would be difficult to determine how many people were killed because the intense heat from the blast meant the remains of many people would never be found many people are still trapped in the rubble of the collapsed buildings. local hospitals were struggling to cope as casualties arrived. as well as those killed hundreds more were seriously wounded. and. what

we've seen is very unusual the hospital is overwhelmed by both dead and wounded we also received people whose limbs were cut away by the bomb this is really horrendous unlike any other time in the past. another explosion struck the capital's medina district local officials said that blast killed two people somalia's president mohammed abdulahi mohammad has declared three days of national mourning. moving on to turkey where diplomatic tensions have the turkish economy in a tight spot helena yeah i think it's fair to say that turkey is actually in serious economic trouble over a number of diplomatic tussles with its neighbors to enduring certainty as well have also unsettled investors now a few days ago it became clear just how nervous the mood is on the market when the u.s. stopped issuing visas following the arrest of a u.s. consulate worker in turkey now the turkish stock index also fell over four

percent we've also seen the current see the country's currency the turkish lira on depression last year one thousand turkish lira worth thirty euro cents today they are worth twenty three euro cents now for turks all of this means that they are feeling the pinch the cost of living has become more expensive in september inflation was in the double digits standing at eleven point two percent and on top of all of this turkey also has a high level of foreign debt to wrangle with so for more on this let's bring in at that young chain from the institute of economic research in munich good to have you with us today now two weeks ago good morning president and once said we don't need the european union one of its long time western allies how do you read this statement. well this is a very strong political statement from an economic point of view it's difficult to

understand it you know turkey is deeply integrated into the european economy and turkey benefited from this integration and any step back and break down would basically put the economy even stronger under pressure and that these type of political statements are not very helpful at in this times because political uncertainty is the core problem of the country as we as we can see well it certainly is but tukey nevertheless has posted robust growth of senior level of five percent so is potentially the impact for example all of the failed coup over. well you know robust growth it's true but it's a temporary growth which has been stimulated by if you want to artificial support by the government public spending and also the competent capital markets reactions with a weak leader over the last months however the core problem is a political uncertainty and there is and the government has not the possibility to

permanently pump in money into into the system inflation is increasing the central bank has to react sooner or later this leeway for political for political intervention support will decrease and the conditions don't look good at the moment now you've mentioned some of those moves to try and boost investment we understand the president alderaan is encouraging businesses to borrow credit for infrastructure projects without interest for example the saw did at his discretion what will that mean for the country. well you know they're understandable that there is a desire for foreign direct investment because what you see in the statistics is the long term investment new investment is no longer taking place there is a strong decrease in foreign direct investment inflows and the reason is again political uncertainty and you can declare on the one side that you are going to

make this reform sense and support foreigners but then on the other hand making the strong statement that turkey does not need europe or this visa confrontation with the usa it's simply not creating confidence confidence creation is the core issue which turkey should follow and that nineteen from the if i were institute for economic research in you nick thank you theo and out of this thank you we've got some sports knees now with terry taking a look at your german football action very interesting weekend indeed helena let's start with braman they hosted to mention glad the home team were looking for their first win of the season and they're still looking after taped up the road win and moved into their place in the league. braman fans are nothing if not optimistic despite not having seen a side win all season they filled the phase i study and coach alexander newry was

relieved to welcome captain flacco you news of it back to the starting line up for the first time this season after injury. it was the opposing team's captain who opened the scoring on twenty seven minutes. ago taking advantage of some sloppy vented defending. few that you could have anticipated that turn and finish simply exquisite minutes later the visitors tightened their control of the game vest to raise highest from a corner and the celebration from the dane out of respect for his former club name all goes followed after the break this with grant backs first away win of the campaign. event had to wait for any wind goes on and xander noori is a man under pressure. also on sunday bottom half sized by early because and well so i played out a two two draw the fourth draw in

a row for new wolves coach martin schmidt it was on one at break but argentinian striker lucas had a lottery of which they were cruising back in front with his second of the season but leeds did not last though. a logical bit ski snatched a point for of those books on sixty nine minutes the results leave schmidt still looking for his first post both in. and you're watching to the other news related get the latest news and information around the clock on our website d.w. dot com we leave you with images from the albuquerque international balloon festival thanks for watching.

is the founding father of digital communication and all around genius and a pioneer of the enlightenment i come across his legacy every day in a city like ben it. was a rock star of the. twenty one institutes here in berlin and brandenburg have been named after him the institute for freshwater fishing economic astrophysics mathematics and climate research for example the question is what do they all have in common. still to send the old spirit of the scientist in the hollowed holes such as here in the natural history museum at the. time it will be surprised by the interest he considered his own contemporaries and educated. but what's going on here

a stage on which scientists present their works a science line in the natural history museum lived it's also had the idea of presenting education to the people as a theatre of knowledge. that comes from here for you from this very institute the incredible jason dunlop. my offering is called my best friend the number it's from myanmar in southeast asia and dates back to the cretaceous. he's talking about a harvestman spider that's ninety nine million years old jason done up speciality is fossil arachnids. like us you could say that's all harvestman have a unique pieces this one has a long slender shape. as this one is a bit hard shaped at that. you could say the shape of the penis is almost more important in determining the particular species than the rest of the body. jason

dunlop has discovered a whole new family of harvestman. he can you can just imagine it was ideal fodder for the tabloids miniature fossilized penises discovered in a bell in his eighty ninety nine million years old the german press was quite from the press look what we've got from the english speaking papers around. rock comet ninety nine million year old direction called your doctor immediately this giant for so nice daddy longlegs. is bigger than your boyfriend this is out of the . would light minutes of laughed about that. given his passion for technology he wouldn't have missed this multi touch table the natural history museum is linked up virtually with other science museums all over germany. with my man because here in the i can dig in the history and collections of various

museums here with my hands a copy of. the spirit is my kind of sorry i didn't want to cover what you were reading which to my cunt here to hit us in theory you can work with several people it is touch table you just have to watch out that you don't cover each other's research results as i'm sure that. i mean the museum of roman and germanic antiquities in cologne virtually in addition to seeing the exhibits i can see the accompanying information. museums as venues of experience that too was an idea lived in it's had a meeting with dr katherine full and it's her job in the museum to present the information in an exciting manner. for three hundred years ago there was no radio and no television and yet scientists like lipids explored ways to bring science and knowledge into the lives of ordinary people how did he go about that it was

a great fan of curiosity cabinets collections that showcased a diverse range of objects they're often seen as the ancestor of modern museums. if we looked at the world with his eyes we wouldn't be able to open them wide enough to absorb all its marvels. climate spend his lifetime dreaming of a theater i'm not too or i at artists a theater of nature and art much like the private collections amassed by european ability at the time these held in iran have extraordinary objects both of nature and human ingenuity the germans called them of wonder come around rooms of wonder. a new room of wonder based on historical models is the old british art collection in central berlin. germany a chef a russian german artist takes me on a trip to the age of life it's an era of great exploratory voyages and scientific

discoveries he was captivated by the spirit of life and it's back in russia. it's home to the famous cabinet of curiosities in st petersburg commissioned by peter the great and based on the ideas of live nets at the time people were fascinated by views on the inner workings of the human body. many anatomical theatres stage spectacles entirely in likenesses vein artists were engaged to draw the treasures in curiosity cabinets and distribute their work among the masses. ole in second life and it's just like leonardo was a rain a song smith and in other words which he was a man who started exploring the depth and diversity of nature so air force here in the cabinet of curiosities we don't see clear boundaries between human figures animal figures and exotic objects exhortation and object are.

always in search of new ideas for his theatre of art and nature live in its travel through europe viewing collections and inventions in paris the capital of science at the time he was seized by creative energy he watched attempts to fly across the sane and was amazed the time had come to devise a comprehensive plan for his own room of wonders. his famous devoted to ponce was a kind of blueprint for modern museums today a spectacular new exhibition space is taking shape in the future berlin city palace its home bought forum is being designed fully in line with allied needs his vision of a theater of nature an art with no admission fee right in the political heart of the capital. in order to realize his dream lightness bombarded many powerful people in europe with his ideas over and over and over again peter the great for example but

the victory march of museums around the world only began after likenesses dance three hundred years ago. libet is known as a mathematician historian and maybe as a diplomat definitely as a philosopher i've never viewed him as someone involved in natural history how does this all fit together and live in it's was a polymath and he actually did study natural history. so he started collecting fossils and regarded them with a different approach than others before. here fossils such as these relics of extinct species. he recognized that they really were animals or plants and wrote down his first thoughts on evolution and. so he was a co-founder of how intelligent. he was ahead of his time. nature is an artist one that can teach humans almost everything as long as they open their eyes. he often explored the hearts

mountains both above and below ground what could he learn from the caves about the history of the earth for example fossils. he was mistaken about some of the bones he found like many in those days he believed in unicorns. one can't help be amazed by lightning it's he taught himself latin is a child studied law became a filler login historian and inventor he came up with his own comprehensive philosophy there was nothing that didn't interest him. as a twenty six year old he met the most famous mathematician of his time the dutchman christian huygens. as often you know he sought out people like organs and horrigan squiggly got the

impression which is what happens when a person babbles that this young man clearly didn't have the knowledge he believed he had. that's why huygens put him to the test he was to add up the reciprocals of the triangular numbers to achieve the sum of to solve the problem. and he was an extremely talented young man who got to the top of the mathematical field next to notes on three years which isn't possible anymore because our knowledge is now so extensive. developed differential and integral calculus to this day mathematicians work with his system and the symbols he conceived. he still credited with being a founding father of calculus. that's hearty ingenuity isn't is today's engineering

would be unthinkable without the calculus it's almost. wherever you have machines designed to perform a certain task or are talking about electrical engineering unique the method like needs invented for. libraries wanted to improve the world everywhere he offered his services to his heirs to chronic employer as a mining engineer even though he didn't have a single day's work experience silver and other all those were mined in the hands mountains mining and metallurgy where the high tech industries in his day like a madman leyden it's turned out designs for new machines. and. he designed various windmills to pump water out of the mines he had ideas about mining techniques such as the endless rope but much didn't work in practice miners stonewalled and all these ideas came to nothing.

but you have to bear in mind that he produced sketches but only very rough ones if you produce sketches like that as an engineer today he would have problems his ideas were correct in principle but he underestimated the difficulty of execution says. it's better to do the same thing twice the nothing once. was in constant contact with the leading scientists engineers philosophers and literary figures of his day. he corresponded with more than a thousand people including such luminaries as isaac newton christian huygens and author from dear rika the physicist from magna book. he disagreed with dirac and about the nature of the vacuum. get it has staged

a spectacular experiment in which he extracted the air of a two pong ball after which eight horses were harnessed at each end they were unable to drag apart the two halls of the sphere. get a kill wanted to prove with this that the cosmos was empty. couldn't imagine that for him space was filled by a subtle substance there was no space without matter he was wrong because there is a vacuum in space gas molecules sucked up by galaxies stars and planets. such mistakes didn't stop life as an early and like moment intellectual he was seeking to eliminate the grey area between appearance and reality in doing so he

made many trivial mistakes. in accordance with my commendable custom i have miscalculated on numerous occasions. mental math wasn't his thing maybe that's why he developed a new mechanical calculating device with two groundbreaking improvements sprockets and the lightness we'll even had them built. you know it was the first calculating machine that could master the full basic arithmetical operations addition subtraction multiplication and division. calculating machines all the ancestors of our multi computer is. the only reason they can compute is because lightness was able to reduce every number to the digits zero and one. i'm asking the head of

mathematician of the lightness institute to explain why this was a breakthrough for the computer science of the future. the world's becoming increasingly digital we've all heard it before digital means zeros and ones a binary system devised by more than three hundred years ago but could you explain it to me so i understand it even. if there are historical roots of course maybe even in the indian system that was developed further and perfected by lightning he pushed it all back to the basic unit zeros and ones. in the zero is nothing and the one is gold if you say power of zeroes and power on is one then you can pick certain sequences of operate. through binary sequences of things it's possible trying to explain to me what the number three would look like in the binary system in the neon signs of him or symbol doesn't seem like i'm talking so maybe it would

be easiest to set up a small diagram draw a horizontal line between the first if it is formed as i'm going to write down one hour to hour four and hour eight if you're on the show the question is how often do i have to multiply the eight to get to three in the end. times because the eight doesn't fit into a three exactly this is a zero what about the four if you want to zero two it doesn't fit. correct a zero no we've reached the two. fits once into the three. it fits now we've just got the one left. it fits once that gives us the three we've done it and that's how you show the three in the binary system let's solve another problem . how do we depict the seven in the binary system i'll draw the same diagram again . you have no weight so as iraq then. correct the

forfeits once i want right so well put you want the two fits one so one right again i want and i'm the one also if it's once into the seven that's correct and that's the number system the seven in the last day of the creation was when everything was perfect. and it's all one knows the day of rest was just one. with nothingness is zero at the beginning it was perceived as perfect. now i've understood how computers take. as of yet we've produced a lot of nights in a short time that we can't keep up with life in its life scupper provide a blog without. he left a seemingly endless pile of notes for posterity. the burnin brandenburg academy of sciences is working through his legacy live it's him self was the first president and co-founder of the institute.

a prolific writer he bequeath a staggering two hundred thousand pages it's one of the largest scholarly legacies and part of unesco's memory of the world program. how will this preserved. when the likeness of his legacy was put under lock and key by his patron of the elector of hanover from seventeen fourteen was also king george the first of england two nights because a lot and it's new an awful lot about internal family matters and the dynastic history he was often intrusted with delicate political missions that were not publicized that the safest way to prevent anything from getting out into the open was to seal up what he left behind. now there's much anticipation about what his legacy harbors. the original documents a scanned in hannover and are then sent to minster potsdam and berlin for

processing. sitting in front of a huge an excel spreadsheet is how dogs event. he's responsible for the publication of lightness is legacy by the bell in bundaberg academy of sciences he and two colleagues battle their way through the scientific and technical papers. some fourteen thousand scans for publication in twelve volumes that takes time how the exhibits has been staring at the same sheet for a day now he doesn't know how long lived it's worked on it but he may need an entire week to grasp it doesn't that frustrate him you know because each page looks different on every page there's the sense of the moment that took place more than three hundred years ago we feel like it's wrestling with an object or subject moving him to the point that he covered both sides of

a sheet top to bottom at the scans can only be given a land with a special computer program that depicts formulas and mathematical symbols this is what a finnish page looks like his legacy doesn't just reveal his many interests it also tells us a lot about who he was as a person. like it's his handwriting was truly appalling often he wrote in french and latin at the same time. or course. is up when it's down live news didn't just capture his thoughts he also annotated them dismissed some crossed things out and added new ideas. even when there was hardly any room left on the sheet he still scrawled comments and drew lines to indicate what they refer to. the

letter these sheets reveal his train of thought both when he was correct and when he was wrong. both even papers where almost everything's crossed out we have the opportunity to reconstruct how he came to his conclusions. it's particularly difficult to create a chronology. it's ready dated his works. only occasional watermarks provide some insight in sixteen seventy three during his time in paris live it's right on paper like this. but he scribbled on everything he found. an envelope addressed to him. it's. it says hanover. i know there in

french. he used every piece of scrap paper. it wasn't for lack of money so what was it. he suffered from a certain response in eighty or thought he was overwhelmed by a flood of thoughts in the morning. just hours after getting up he had more thoughts in his had to make than he was able to write down in the morning or even throughout the day cited as a result he was very spontaneous with capturing those thoughts he took whatever was a terms of things that are dying out the numbers at a hundred nine minutes immortalized a detail from his everyday life on this page noting down his shopping list between his musings on friction. two chickens cut four loaves and three measures of wine i think. he's written down some figures

to. life they're more likely prices than quantities and these stains are probably food and drink stains. essence we don't know what else they could be under and after he wrote while eating a true workaholic. fifty nine volumes of his writings have been published since one nine hundred twenty three the endeavor will only be completed when one hundred thirty years of volume is published in twenty fifty five. it's already possible to view many of the scans documents online. you know he was really at home in higher math lightness believed he could solve every problem with the help of math he quickly reached his limits because the big problems of human kind can't be solved with math because life isn't made up of zeros and ones it's not black and white and so forth of eyes. but how else are we supposed to solve conflicts then we need lateral

thinkers polymaths or at least networks of top notch scientists to save the world i meet the president to life society who has a busy schedule. thank you for taking the time to see me we're meeting at the airport where are you going. to frankfurt university the higher education council is meeting today. because what would it be possible to be a polymath today or do we now know too much how do you do it in the light society that's going to be left with comanche after the latin it society covers all fields of learning from the humanities to the social sciences and the natural sciences as well as the life sciences and engineering sciences the approach is very interdisciplinary it works wonderfully. is that the key to the future working in a more into disciplinary and co-operative manner might say so. because the complex

problems we're dealing with require us when scientists from such different disciplines come together do they really get on. you know like when society is a community of ninety excellent soloists who've decided they want to play in the orchestra big pieces that deal with climate change for example to do that you have to play but you also have to listen. to others playing what i might play. how do we get to good results in obtaining a good and session is a very nice image an orchestra of science the life society i've had the privilege of speaking with the president or rather the conductor thank you for your time. this is a science can be a lot of fun we've learned that from life it's on our way through our everyday lives we come across his work and ideas all over the place and we've learned

this is news coming to you live from berlin and crunch time for catalonia the region's separatist leader ignores a deadline to give a clear answer on his plans for independence will the spanish prime minister now make good on his threats to take back control also coming up a shot in the arm for populism in europe as conservative sebastian cross winds austria's election by embracing the policies of the far right. and a scenario many feared iraqi forces have begun an operation to seize positions from

kurdish fighters in kirkuk problem. well i'm terry martin good to have you with us in spain the leader of catalonia has decided to give madrid the yes or no answer it wants to whether the region has declared independence instead charles called for two months of dialogue his statement came this morning ahead of a deadline set by the national government spanish prime minister mariano rajoy has rejected talks in the past he also warned that if catalonia declares independence or fails to clarify its position madrid could suspend the regional government and take control of catalonia. well joining us now from the cattle on capital

barcelona sit in front of the regional parliament is t w correspondent barbara basal hyped by a book in his letter to the spanish government still didn't give a clear answer as to whether catalonia has declared independence or not why is pushed month playing his cards so closely to his chest. what he's trying to do really terry is a gain some movie go room full of the killing for himself because he is in a trap whatever he does now is wrong this sort of undecisive answer he gave is going to be rejected by madrid we're just waiting for a statement of deputy prime minister to say ends who we assume is going to say no to this demand for talks and no two this demand for another two months of sort of dragging things on madrid has put down their deadlines one was today the last one is thursday the worst is the law is the latest day where the government the

central government of spain is going to take away powers from the regional government the palace we see behind us and call for elections in catalonia so that's the playbook and put him on is somehow fighting for his survival but it looks like he's not going to gain this. is expected to address the cattle on parliament shortly what can we expect from the said we don't except the statement that came this morning from barcelona the interior minister over the weekend had says that this is not a legal process we won't be going on with this and so we are expecting to very shortly here it clearly sort of rip off the statement i've put him on coming from madrid and saying this is not good enough you have just one last chance chance to take back this independence declaration and if you don't till thursday it's elections barbara thank you so much. in barcelona.

now we're going to look at a man who promised to shake up austrian politics and he appears to have done just that thirty one year old sebastian cortes is on track to become the country's next leader near final results from sunday's election put his conservative people's party in first place but also claiming victory is the far right freedom party in austria once shunned as too radical by europe they could well play kingmaker in austria's new government thank him ven divert see the whiz kid at thirty one the conservative sebastian could spark comes europe's youngest head of government promising a new kind of politics. today we have a strong mandate to change this country and i thank you for making that possible. after. thank you it was. the far right freedom party led by hans christian strata achieved close to the best results in

its history and looks most likely to form a coalition with the conservatives both parties that campaigned against immigration and islamic law the will for change in austria is widespread and strong a series of scandals hammered the social democrats of outgoing chancellor christian can he's now facing a spell in opposition. it's about defending modern diverse and democratic austria that will be needed more than ever in the next five years. yet another surprise came for the greens their vote fell by nearly two thirds making even their presence in the next parliament uncertain. wrangling over the shape of the next coalition can now begin to let the far right slightly return to governments in wealthy austria will worry a european union already unsettled by breck's it and rising extremism.

of more on the elections in australia let's bring in professor holt gap from ins brook university in austria welcome professor first of all tell us more about sebastian courts who is set to become austria next chance for how did he rise so for so fast he's just thirty one years old. first of all he adopted the issues from the freedom party and he also had quite a right wing populist course in this election campaign and secondly the conservatives weren't there in a deplorable situation when he took over so he. changed the conservatives the conservative party and he was very successful with this new well right positioning now there's been a lot of intense international interest in this election also because in the run up

to sunday's election the far right freedom party were ahead out in front for much of the campaign now sebastian courts managed to turn that around how did he do it. he dropped it before he hit up it's his from the freedom party and get up that it quite successfully and it was a fight between the three of them can quit sent back here and for a long time in this election campaign it seems that struck me was. kept behind the other two finally he could he could. make a considerable success and so he got it's twenty six percent but the quits to a certain extent just took the issues from the freedom party so kurtz kind of outflanked freedom party on the right as it were now it's expected the courts will form a government with the far right freedom party what kind of policies can we expect from such a government in more restrictive policies specialist's is social affairs. also

more restrictive as far as migration and. and certainly less pro european position which means that he will be rather. favor of hungary and poland and not so much of france germany first thank you so much that was professor reinhold gap there from ins brook university in austria ok bye bye. say look now at some of the other stories making headlines around the world today filipino security officials have said the last remaining leaders of an islamist militant group laying siege to the southern city of more rai have been killed the two brothers were aligned with so-called islamic state they were killed in a military operation after a tip off from a rescued hostage and a swelling president nicolas maduro has hailed the results of regional elections his ruling party won nearly all twenty three contested state governorships

opposition leaders have said they suspect election fraud independent polls had projected the opposition would win a majority due to my poor handling of venezuela's economic crisis. and portugal has been hit by a record number of forest fires burning across the country three people have been killed meanwhile in spain fire crews have been battling wildfires that killed two people in the country's north west authorities said winds from hurricane ophelia off the atlantic coast or worsening the flames. iraqi troops have begun an operation to reclaim kerney shelled territories in the province of cook in a statement the military said it had already taken control of an oil and gas company south of kirkuk government forces want to retake military bases and oil fields that kurdish fighters seized three years ago in the campaign against the

so-called islamic state kurdish facials have called the operation an unprovoked attack local media have reported some fighting tensions have been high in the kurdish region following a controversial independence referendum last month let's bring in correspondent campbell mick diarmid here here he's in care cook and joins us now on the line good to see you there kemah can you tell can you confirm the iraqi forces are advancing towards kirkuk what's the situation on the ground. yeah i can confirm that for you we are we're in south cook at the moment we just actually drove south on the baghdad road down to where kids were holding the mic. positions until last night and we actually came across the rocky the forces who have advanced there is so that the peshmerga have withdrawn there is no line currently between coke city and the advancing iraqis there are just some some

volunteer peshmerga here on the road with no defenses and no no orders and it's it's not clear how the iraqis are going to continue advancing ok so the iraqi forces are bent saying what's the potential for this getting out of control could we be witnessing the start of another military conflict in iraq i mean it is extremely tense here right now and the volunteer go we you know the saying that they're ready to fight even if their leaders and the official peshmerga have withdrawn so i think you know the chances that clashes could break out and escalate a very real and even if only to say that i don't want this to you know descend into another civil conflict in iraq at least two groups are supposed to be allies at least to some degree the kurdish peshmerga and the iraqi forces supposed to be fighting together at least the so-called islamic state what does this mean for n t

e s operations in iraq. yeah i mean this this is just something that they would want to capitalize on now so the diesel jazz that we just saw on the road are the same soldiers you know we've been embedded with in mosul until recently and now they're they are advancing against peshmerga positions so certainly isis will be looking you know at ways they can exploit this and certainly while eyes are on here on cookbook you know that means fuel holding forces in mosul and other places in iraq where you know isis may be looking to make a comeback well this has diplomatic background this crisis that we're witnessing going back to the kurdish reffer independence referendum which baghdad the government in baghdad rejected are there any efforts to result this with diplomatic means i mean this certainly and you know the americans are trying to bring them to the table but you know the head of the vote you know baghdad was very clear they

didn't want the kids to hold the referendum the kid said they would hold the referendum and then hold negotiations well now that's happened back that said they're not willing to negotiate they have issued a series of ultimatums to the kids including giving back territory in the disputed territories like a cook which they've held and since two thousand and fourteen the cuts took this territory without fighting when the iraqi military left you know ahead of an isis advance so they don't feel like they want to give it back even though you know the leaders now are appear to be withdrawing units without you know without this resulting in outright hostilities today but i mean it's very fair brawl it's hard to say what's going to happen now i'm sure campbell thank you so much for that update kamal mcdermott there in correspondent in iraq just south of the city of kirkuk thank you so much thanks guys. you were watching did i mean there still to come a triumph for germany social democrats but

a setback for chancellor merkel as her party is beaten into second place in key in a key regional but. now investment and companies are leaking out of the catalan capital we were talking about that just a moment ago the wake in the wake of the political crisis there's now an economic crisis brewing helena that is right terry of course it's spain's worst phonetical crisis in decades in the business that is never good news now investors will have to deal with two or more months of uncertainty off the catalonia preach among proposed independence talks in the weeks ahead meanwhile many businesses have already had enough we've seen forty four major companies moving their headquarters out of catalonia since the referendum most is the going to madrid among them gas and that's what alice i know is that about to sell next and colonise they're all listed on spain's main stock index that's the ibex thirty five so the big names now

also gone all the big banks is now headquartered in a villain's yes sagal in l.a. county in fact there's only one ibex listed for the drug maker great falls which still remains in the region of catalonia and other companies that are leaving accounts for approximately one hundred fifty thousand jobs in the region and a combined net profit of over eight billion euros last year alone a worst of all this comes as a total surprise to many in catalonia. it sounded so good spain's economically strongest region freed from any financial commitment to the rest of the country the downside not according to those who spearheaded the independence movement. thank god there is so much fear so much fear and they are saying the banks would leave it alone no banks

will leave catalonia do you think they will leave and of course they won't but they will stay they will stay here not to help us but because it is in their own interest we know that much. gets the last three years i got a dark militia by those of us who found very embarrassed wrong. turns out the banks aren't staying there among forty four companies that have moved away since the referendum over two thousand smaller ones had already left over the past two years for good reason says joseph bo he runs a bakery chain and serves as president of the car saloni and business association. it would affect all cattle and companies it would mean a loss of markets. is made up of the twenty seven nations to which we sell i mean

that was when we get big issues with orders customs and taxes we will lose competitive and us. imports post you know so you must come but it will. being locked out of the e.u. would be a problem for the baker and maybe more so for the banker kaiser bank one of the country's big four announced its move to valencia only days after the referendum desperate to calm clients into the business so far were calm but as soon as we perceive any kind of uncertainty for you maybe we will get our money out of there. she's able to push the system doesn't inspire confidence in me and so that's why i decided to withdraw all my savings. as tension minds many fear a piece of scenes like these in barcelona last week the prospect of big businesses leaving has left some catalans ready to follow the big corporations a move away from home. time to cross over to the

frankfurt stock exchange now and check in with our financial correspondent khana that is and conrad last week we saw the dax break the thirteen thousand point mark is the magic continuing this monday morning yes out of the german share index has managed to climb above thirteen thousand points again this morning and of course for investors the crucial question is will it manage to remain above this level a bit longer a bit more sustainably of course there are negative and positive factors dragging on the index and on the markets we have all those political risk catalonia we have this swing to the right in austria the state election here in germany yesterday which has made it easier for chancellor merkel to form a go coalition government in berlin but on the other hand the international monetary fund just increased its global forecast for the global economy so there are also a lot of reasons to remain optimistic for equities and as well connor are because

and big name earning reports coming in this week dima a pay well they keep the buoyant mood. well you know that those earnings reports will be about the third quarter the month july august and september which were months where currency the euro was really really strong so of course what analysts will be focusing on now is whether or not this has had a negative a monthly impact on earnings reports of companies like diane s.a.p which have so much business outside the eurozone on a god who is in in frankfurt for us where the markets are looking bullish for the time being thank you very much well here in germany question mark hanging in the air over the composition of the country's next government and the results of a regional election yesterday were very important for that terry that's exactly

right helen a lot of election results to digest today are also here in germany chancellor going to michael's conservatives have taken a drubbing in a key regional election the vote in germany second largest state lower saxony saw her c.v. you lose to the social democrats the result is good news for michael's former coalition partners who did poorly in last month's federal election. the the the social democrats haven't forgotten how to party just three weeks after their worst election results in modern german history the s.p.d. us back coming out as the strongest party in lower saxony for the first time in nearly twenty years. as a fitting you know this is a great evening for the s.p.d. in lower saxony and for me many thanks to the voters but also to my party members who fought passionately he lied and it came to. it's a remarkable turnaround in the summer of the s.p.d.

he was far behind in pulling the victory in lower saxony was badly needed after party leader martin schulz his historic defeat in the bonus talk elections. i think you know sing in austin and he does what the social democrats achieved in lower saxony is unique in the history of election campaigns in germany and we're not i mean thankful but we're also very proud and very happy about this great success i think in the. close enough or pretty is pretty bleak candidate band manages conservative c.d.u. party last two percent scoring their lowest results in almost twenty years. he said that to me or not to english as a person really i would have wished for a better result for the c.d.u. party in lower saxony. but let me be absolutely clear about this we do not have to be ashamed about tonight's results misson via hopes. the result weakens chancellor merkel who is facing

a difficult time at the negotiating table. another party got a big bump out of the results the far right don't turn it for germany won seats in the regional parliament for the first time that means it's now represented in fourteen federal states of germany. or more on this let's bring in our political correspondent hans blonde who is down at the city you headquarter . in berlin or chancellor merkel and her party heads are discussing the election results hans merkel's party just lost that important state election in lower saxony meanwhile she's trying to cobble together a coalition government at national level what does this mean what are you hearing from the party members. oh yes indeed the first effect is that in fact these coalition talks here in berlin can now start because there have been suspended effectively for the last three weeks since the general election because everyone was waiting for the election results from lower saxony nala out it's clear

that i'm going to marcos christian democrats the conservatives have not done as well as they had hoped that this is not given i'm going to marco an additional push as it were and fact it's more a damp enough for her so i presume the party leadership which is meeting at the moment behind me in this court as here is going to have some pretty intense discussions about what this is going to mean for the. coalition discussions that are coming up in the next few days in the end i think it will mean that i'm going to america will have difficulty keeping her own party in line behind her coalition talks she'll have difficulty both within her party and with the coalition partners that she's trying to win over her position and the end is weakened by this result ok so chancellor merkel's bargaining position has been weakened by that election in lower saxony also in that election in lower saxony we saw the far right the party

entering another state parliament what impact could that have on germany's political landscape. well yes indeed that is the part of the election of art that's particularly worrying through the conservatives to the christian democrats because they are effectively losing a lot of votes to the rights to this alternative for germany which is on a roll is one pretty much every election it's participated in or it's been successful in every election it's participated in in the last year or two so within i'm going to conservative party the question is whether the party as a whole should move to the right in order to take votes away from the f.t. or whether it should continue on perturbed with its public policies of the moment i'm going to america is trying to tell a party it's best to stay with the policies at the moment but there's a lot of a large bloc in her party that is pushing towards the right look at just looking at there's a federal coalition to go she asians americans involved in right now he said they

can be started now finally that that election in lower saxony is over any idea when germany might have a functioning government again that's going to be very difficult to say about everyone says that it's going to be christmas at least if not a new year in other words in the new year we might have a new government it's going to be a very very tough negotiation it will require all the skills of macro has which are considerable in their actions but it will take time and thank you so much t.w. is hans blunt they're here in berlin at the c.p.u. headquarters. to sunday's bonus league action and better blame and wait for a first league win of the season continues they tell to it to neil defeat at home to bruce it mention. the visitors enjoyed most of the chances and the first half and deservedly took the lead through captain lost in the then moments later yannick best towered over the brain in defense to double his side's lead was the last of
