ten pm you're in moscow you're watching r t welcome if you just joined us it's kevin owen with the top stories for you this hour and first struggling homeowners traveled for miles in cuba for 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 despite talk of an end to the financial crisis more than three hundred thousand homes are represented 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 get help everybody really help you know to help and that's what we're looking for help the desperate voices of those who have reached the end of the line or am i too am what time nine thirty nine thirty last night when did you sleep here near 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 that we could on by the neighborhood assistance corporation of america 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. bruce marks 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 both not everyone qualifies but everyone is at least promised an answer the where in adjustable rate mortgage rates

just keep going up and there's this one believable natha targets people with nowhere else to turn more dish basically is out of reach saw matching choosing whether to keep or pay more ditch their home also target c.e.o.'s 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. 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. 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 it's a struggle shared by everyone here in varying degrees. paying our bills we had to

take. them from you can't come here. family members passed away i. went over a thousand miles higher than it started a last hope in an economy still in peril reporting in washington christine for south r.t. . who microblogging going to scared to simply rejected from president obama's mortgage a program because the banks and go to one side who qualify. i was in atlanta with the naacp. foreclosure effort there to try to help people and all twenty five thousand people showed up there have 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 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. this is our say and i had this for you find out who the president is making out to be iran's latest adversary. who wants to live forever make those willing to place not just their face but also their brains and bodies in the hands of scientists in the hope of resurrection.

women in a study of face the highest gender pay gap in the entire european union according to the report they are an average of thirty percent less than their male counterparts with most politicians turning a blind eye to the problem women are often scared to speak out against inequality. to day the sun is shining on olga it's a break from our hard working life earning money to raise her son but as a single mum she has to swear to town to the factory just to bring in a meager pay packet just that it's thirty three degrees celsius in their workshop but our employers don't care if you try to stand up for your rights they'll point you to the door if you don't like it here you're free to leave it's very hard to find a job here in a still when you're there for put up with working in slave like conditions but still only has one of europe's worst pay gaps between men and women studies say women get paid seventeen percent less than men on average but in a stone year it's as much as thirty percent people think that we don't have the

problem is that there is there where ness of the problem and and the problem that people don't have their gender lenses how to say to see when there is an inequality going on. yet it goes much further than wages so-called segregation in the economy means women often remain in lower paid jobs like health care and education while men dominate the more lucrative private sector experts say that's not just inferred it's bad for business if for example a concrete to woman feels that she cannot to the job or cannot take up the career that she would lie and she she has a talent for that and of course this is some human resource loss to their corner there also appears to be an ethnic dimension with this journey as large russian minority receiving lower pay the nearest only in counterparts and ethnic russian women come out bottom of the list it's a structural

a show in the labor market. that. it's a russian speaking we mean the they are perhaps working in the sectors where the pages where the wages are especially low and this. of course increase. their pick up even more whether it's over it's in the city or gender it's stereotypes that have been identified as one of the root causes of inequality in green latitudes of what to seen as the proper roles mon women should perform a 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 the certitude of people to not change overnight for all good though it's simply a case of double standards. i think if our prime minister was peed myself

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 barton r.t. stonier. if you move seeking inspiration from the installation of. the four we've been taking on more on the wild side finding out how a group of bought together and. roaring engines and music is shaking the ukrainian city of sevastopol only one international bike show gets into gear there this year's festival of the expected guest revving up the action to train as over was their first. one thing can be said for certain about

the russian prime minister he certainly knows how to make an entrance arriving at the bike show that is taking place in the ukrainian region of the crimea just outside of the ukrainian city of sevastopol the russian prime minister made his entrance like all of the other people here did on a bike admittedly it was the first time that he was seen any public on a motorcycle and he's speaking to the crowds here later said that it was an experience that he very much enjoyed specifically because of course the bike is very much associated with freedom and the free journey that most bikers do experience when they take to the roads 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 the 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. is the most democratic means of transport there are of course. today but on the whole bikes and widely available and it's

possible to say soon. is the most courageous adventurous and the fastest means of transport and what's most important it gives the owner of the bike the sweet feeling of freedom so without any exaggeration we could say that the bike is a symbol of freedom. 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 was and it 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 up. of the russian navy which the craniums and the russians according

to him will be celebrating together of course the russian black sea fleet is stationed just a few kilometers away from here on the black sea in the city. and a huge navy parade is scheduled to take place tomorrow morning on sunday morning so a great event most of the people here will actually move over to the city to watch the parade to take part in the festivities all in all a very happy occasion in making his mark left just the way he came on a bike. from mr enjoyed his day of the. service the dream of the business with ukraine's president. and the latest show of the ever improving relations between the two countries. seems relations though between russia and iran are rapidly heading downhill president mahmoud ahmadinejad has accused me to my advantage of being a spokesman for the enemies of iran and we didn't as yet insisted to our wants to

continue with friendship with moscow but he claimed that russia's recent statements on iran's nuclear program were quote an advert for america's propaganda drama russia and iran have long been political and economic partners however recently moscow back to u.s. proposed sanctions against iran and the west fears the country's working on nuclear weapons but around insists it's only pursuing peaceful energy. for the mosque and state university of international relations believes with his latest statement the iranian president's simply trying to score points so when the radical population of the country. i think that behind such aggressive rhetoric there is a desire to unite the section of the iranian society he relies on this section is not conservative but rather militaristic and i'm a dinner doesn't reject any tools to reach his goals he blames western countries russia he blames some arabic countries for conspiring against the islamic republic

but the next time he could say that everything's fine in relations with his partners. for several years i'm a degenerate has been using the same tactics of aggressive rhetoric and despite all the protests on the streets of tehran he is still in power the methods he uses in foreign policy help him to stay in office. with more thoughts of the story of the coffs from the institute of world economy and international relations here in moscow he believes despite the harsh comments toward russia the kremlin will still insist on dialogue. i don't think that the russian reality on the relations will deteriorate significantly because we still have a very big economic cooper ration with a wider audience and the bush era tonic power project is going to be completed. probably next landfall in the north and so i don't think that there will be drastic was ending all very economic relations as well as political relations between iran

and the russian federation i don't see it suppose that there will be the very strong reaction on behalf of moscow towards iran even statements because moscow is still thinking that iran will actually be negotiating the iranian nuclear program and prosperous the whole thing got there and we'll all be listening to the voices of reason and that's why i don't think that the reaction of the harbor most will be very strong. it may be the stuff of horror movies returning from the dead these are also a dream for the clinic in russia is offering clients the chance to put their brains and bodies on ice until science advances enough to let them outsmart the grim reaper r.t. states bivins visited what is the only facility of its time outside the u.s. . so that's just all known put death on ice in the science fiction film demolition

man freezing his body to be awakened in the future. and more than a decade later must abide by his love is attempting to have his immortality on earth and his mind heaven can wait my parents had a mixed reaction to this my mom thinks it's a stupid waste of money most of my friends support me in this decision because they are also pro quo iyonix he's paying thirty thousand dollars to have his body stored after he dies at the cruise clinic near moscow which freezes humans in the hopes of future thirty taishan it's the only the city of its kind outside the us and so far they can explore any count standard for and the head of aid refrigerating gas are stored in this liquid nitrogen field of that cracker was says it can't make any promises but this might just be a way to get a take to find life if science catches up with imagination they'll be transferred

to new bodies the cost of a simple brain freeze is ten thousand dollars even if we can reverse that emotion right now if we can preserve the structure of the information about the course and then we can still put pressure revive him in the future while some in a scientific community support investing in cryogenics they believe major advances in the field are a long way off controlling the thawing process is a major challenge but nothing compared to bring someone back to life. 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. my immediate goal is to fly somewhere to a star closest to us. for that islam and. investment in what seems impossible today may be worthwhile and many tomorrow students are. will be using brief now at least fifteen people have been crushed to death in

with suspect institutions say they're ready to help the braes more money european markets have not yet had the opportunity to cause the verdict as the result came out of the close of the market. if your struggles when markets open on monday this is likely to feed through into russia but according to peter weston chief strategist at what's on it may represent a boring opportunity for investors. the exposure of the russian banks to the force out european countries plus ireland is two point seven billion dollars a thousand times almost less than what they suppose is the european banks they will be punished the russian banking stocks will be punished but they probably will be punished and justifiably so do if you do see that negative reaction in the financials and you do see russian banks fall in with them and in fact creates another buying opportunity of russian financials. the stock markets here in moscow had a mixed day on friday financials look held by those stressed result of european banks

as the aerospace industry was hit by the financial crisis many believe this year is your cave and the recovery of the civil aircraft industry may be a question of what has the data. this is the a downturn in the civil avocation industry is the deal signed in sombreros speak for themselves at nearly fifty billion dollars worth compared to seven billion at the paris air show last year the star of the show was the boeing seven hundred seven dreamliner made from composite materials the manufacturer claims that planes for the next eighteen years will be more adult understood sign this is a test airplane number three you know we will start it by their own plane by the end of the year and we hold that the first customer the launch customer a japanese adeline and they will get the first green light this year russian civil aircraft maker has had a particularly good airshow signing of a ten billion dollars worth of deals in good company agreed to supply malaysia with fifty m. s.
