road and of course everybody here very excited to hear that they greeted with cheers they everything reacted responded to everything that he said all of their wishes that he bestowed upon them and thanked them for inviting him to this very event this annual event that takes place in the ukrainian region of the crimea every year bikers from around the world gather here driving down to spend a few days in the crimean sun by the lake just have some fun enjoy each other's company and this year vladimir putin was one of those who shared that freedom and that joy with them of course in the speech he touched upon many prominent issues of course thanking first of all the ukrainian government for making such a thing as the bike show possible and making it a possibility to happen of course congratulating everybody not only with this event but with the upcoming day of the russian navy which the craniums and the russians according to legend it will be celebrating together of course the russian black sea for. it's station just

a few kilometers away from here on the black sea in the city of sevastopol and you know which maybe parade is scheduled to take place tomorrow morning on sunday morning so great is that most of the people here will actually move over to the city it's about hoping to watch the parade to take part in the festivities all in all a very happy occasion but you know it's in the making his mark left just the way he came on a bike. porting. iraq inquiry says the allies used depleted uranium during the country's invasion in two thousand and three more than seven years later iraqis are suffering from the consequences such as birth defects we talked to a british m.p. who says such i mean it is a weapon of eternal destruction that's in just a few minutes time right here on out. and who wants to live forever i mean those willing to place not just the face but also their brains and bodies in

scientists who promised resurrection. those struggling homeowners traveled for miles and queued for over twenty four hours to get free advice being offered by a mortgage advocacy group in washington d.c. they say the government's aid program has failed them well despite talk of an end to the financial crisis more than three hundred thousand homes are still repossessed every month in the united states. these are the faces behind the crisis we're waiting and hoping and praying to but we can decide to help everybody really help know how to help and that's what we're looking for you know the desperate voices of those who have reached the end of the line for i am still am what time nine thirty nine thirty last night and if you're sleepy or you're gondola mccrone naomi lawrence took several buses from florida eighteen hours then arrived at the washington d.c. convention center thursday morning waiting thirty hours to get in oh you've been

our boy it's tat and we don't have no place to go and bathroom. but they waited anyway for a chance to restructure the mortgages on their homes all part of the save the dream tour good you need to go all the way put on by the neighborhood assistance corporation of america birthparent or natca this is a look at foreclosure activity around the united states during the last year the height of it came in march of this year but never once did it fall below three hundred thousand homes in a month everybody here has tried to work with their lender and it's failed c.e.o. groups mark's calls himself a financial terrorist and with the help of many volunteers works with people to help them they get counseling and meet with lenders to come up with an affordable mortgage or to lower their interest rate or books not everyone qualifies but everyone is at least promised an answer the where in adjustable rate mortgage rates

and that rates just keep going up and there's this one believable napco targets people with nowhere else to turn more dish basically is out of reach saw. some choosing whether to keep or pay more ditch. there are also targets studios of big banks who they say caused this crisis five protesting outside their houses putting furniture. on their lawns they also protest inside the capitol even though congress wants to pretend that there's no crisis out there and re president obama wants to pretend that he's solved it the fact of the matter is it's just as bad and it's not getting better deborah phillips told her daughters it was president obama they were here for they think they're here for the white house that's all they've been talking about saying obama but. i guess that we're not trying to let them understand the struggle a struggle shared by everyone here in varying degrees we've been having struggles with paying our bills we had to take our son out of private school and i'm actually

doing it for my dad he can't come here that's what my family members passed away and that's why we. went over a thousand miles hard and started a last hope in an economy still in peril reporting in washington christine for south r t well filmmaker donny schecter believes thousands are simply rejected for on president obama's mortgage aid program as the banks have too much say as to who qualifies. i was in atlanta with the naacp. for closure effort there to try to help people and twenty five thousand people showed up there they've been showing up around the country precisely because the government programs are not working something like five hundred thousand people have been thrown off the government program because they don't meet various criteria as a consequence only a small relatively small percentage of those facing foreclosure are being helped at

all and when we say helped means that their mortgages are modified either the interest level is reduced or the in some way the terms of payment are made more affordable for people but by and large the services the so-called mortgage servicers who work with the banks are really controlling the process the government is not imposing rules here they're not really offering debt relief to people as they do to people in other countries so we have a situation where the foreclosure crisis could lead to a million new foreclosures this year you all were dawtie it's good to have your company today and still to come if you're the world through inspiration. we've been taking on the wild side here the landscape project. planes.

ethnic russian women come out bottom of the list it's a structural a show in the labor market. that. russian speaking women in the they are perhaps working in the sectors where the pages where the wages are especially low and this. course increase the. pay gap even more whether it's overwritten the city or gender stereotypes that have been identified as one of the root causes of inequality in green latitudes of what to seen as the proper roles men and women should perform passed down through generations the government says it's trying to weed them out but it's going to take time. i would submit. the problems there is no point of. hiding the problems that your country faces it is a lengthy process and. and these had to tutor of people to not change overnight are all good though it's simply

a case of double standards. yet there was this international get my thinking for a prime minister was paid my salary even if he didn't have to pay the utilities i don't think it would last him a week children and parents are enjoying the summer sun behind me but for many estonian women it's a rare luxury and with gender stereotypes dying hard it could be years before stoning women catch up with their male counterparts tom bought an r.t. to live in a stone near. american and british forces use of depleted uranium during the invasion of iraq in two thousand and three the claim comes from an iraq inquiry which has reportedly uncovered more than forty sites across the country with high radiation contamination it's suggested the allies could have used around two metric tons of the weapon and the ammunition is widely condemned because of the potential long term health effects such as cancer and birth defects the new allegation follows a report submitted by the u.k.

the landscape projects festival has run and so what we've got here in this big expense is an area that's got the old installations from the past four years that people can go and look at and see how things have evolved to the installations this year that we've been told that a particular theme of this year's installations is called nine it keys to the labyrinth now i haven't decided exactly what they all mean by that just yet but hopefully will be able to unlock that secret a little bit later but it's certainly very beautiful very very interesting to come and look around and see what they've put together now the curator of this event. it's an incredibly famous russian artist. he was one of the pioneers the video and all the artists that are here and involved in this but should they be made big contributions in the in the artistic well a lot of them have travels. wealth of experience to be put into this festival and these installations so as you say. abstract art modern art art i don't know it's

all a mystery to me sara but certainly some of the masterpieces that look very professional can anyone take part in just a professional can the average joe come along and say look what i've just made from as i said the caliber of the artists that are involved in this extremely high but the whole point of the festival is everyone to be a vote so it's incredibly interactive so you can probably see behind me this is not a don't touch so it's a event those people getting involved able to touch share not really climb into the installations look around the in the actual main area they have show and talk so let's just run some of the out there so the whole point of it is to get everyone to vote now it's about three hours out of the sense that most go but those who are willing to make that journey won't be disappointed this. will hit the river over people swimming off of the banks is that certainly a welcome relief in this hot weather and the so there's plenty to do lots of

organic food and plenty to get involved in this. sunday looks like a fun time for you and all of those involved onto you sir for putting from the central russia art festival thanks. well and for those wanting something on the beaten track this week's edition of must go out gives you the lowdown on the golden ring which is where renowned tourist destinations are situation just outside the capital join us with that next hour right here on our team. it's like walking for a picture it's so peaceful that one's at school responses so get us out from all around the world it's also packed with this story and interesting facts and figures it's the great took refuge here inside these walls what is going on is very clear and also it's how the whole place of the for the famous that's.

a scientific community support investing in cryogenics they believe major advances in the field are a long way off controlling the fine process is a major challenge but nothing compared to bringing someone back to life. for the problem at hand is resuscitation it's biological death and irreversible derangement . but if the future can bring this lazarus of the icebox back to life what does he hope to do that my immediate goal is to fly somewhere to a star closest to us. for veges live an investment in what seems impossible today may be worthwhile and many tomorrows stacy didn't r.t. . that are the business news is next with daniel stay with us. welcome to business the much anticipated results of the european bank stress test are out seven of europe's ninety one largest banks failed the exam which was
