that's a great way to turn the current imperial truly told us to. the letter to her to say don't need to go and. run to the colonel was her job as a retreat. it's five thirty pm in moscow you're with r t our top stories as a chinese political prisoner gets a nobel prize an absentee of many western countries are calling for his release but some critics say the u.s. is in no position to talk about those speaking out against the government beijing says the award is an insult to its judicial system of third of the countries invited to the event have not showed up in support of china. american companies channeling funds to the whistle blowing web site wiki leaks have stopped all payments but are still allowing money to flow to the violent and racist groups

supporters of this site and its founder are now turning against these firms which include pay pal visa and master card. also russian authorities detained a woman who was reportedly linked to terrorist groups and had been planning a suicide bomb attack in moscow twenty two year old came to the capital from the southern republic of. congo and stay. up next starts he invites you to brussels republic of north of say a line our guide james brown shows us how to so i had made shawl and become a ranger stay with us. i know great things about a north setting you're alone in the people are supposed to be amazingly friendly the scenery breathtaking and the food never ending and it's only a short hop away from moscow just two hours by plane train by its towering mountains the region is times more than seven hundred thousand people just on the software based on body count counts the area's administrative center of the city is

capital city. in russian blood a kind of caste means ruler of the caucasus and the city is decorated with monuments to its proud military history and its culture past and present. this is going to be my favorite sculpture and. these two gentlemen to play a game of noddy which is the most popular game in the caucuses so sort of like a cross between backgammon and draw. and it looks like. the new one is going to have a busy trip and i wanted to make sure that i picked up a few souvenirs before i set off into the mountains all i needed was a couple of local girls to provide some gift inspiration i think excuse me could you tell me where you bought your shuttles in the shop. in the shop of the ladies pointed me in the direction of the salinas workshop she and her colleagues make

handmade a set. following a design that's been popular here for centuries. and first we examine all the museum exhibits and only after that all our artists on the basis of what we've got to make the kitchen an individual pattern is sketched out and then handed over to most a seamstress to begin and it's a painstaking process two months work. to make one of these. so who better to teach me the final two sure something. useful in. everything you know. doesn't mean the needle was going to go where it was supposed to go. she did it i'm getting the feeling that i probably should have paid more attention. now it's fine good. it was becoming more.

so. to me and moved on to the next stage. was now that you can see the grounds work has been pretty. it's possible to embroider this. each unique can sell for up to one hundred fifty dollars but it seems that all that silliness company makes. well both of these women here makes the dolls and she dresses them all in national costume. was like walking into a little girl's dream world these dolls are all individually decorated and have costumes from a set and other parts of the caucuses and if you don't have a doll's house to put them in some will be just as happy on the teapot. but this is much more than just through a new show each one of these could be a collector's item i'm just wondering if we might find a couple of life size versions of these two anyway. with gift buying sorted i was

ready to head into the mountains and the region has plenty of dedicated volunteers to make sure you have a safe trip. you only have to see these amazing views to understand how popular a sport rock climbing is in this area but of course it can also be extremely dangerous which is why north of thirty is mountain rescue teams are always in business. so he's been working here for more than ten years and promised to show me what it takes to be in a city in ranger. we were meeting up with a group of one of the ranges taking their final practical exams in the winter rescuers have to deal with an accident every single day and that can often mean carrying a victim over treacherous terrain. so you can see it's really the of the makeshift here we've got. some ski poles and then the ropes that you would take with you on a normal mountaineering expedition and this is what they're using to make this makeshift stretcher. and once our victim is secure he's going to be moved.

through and then once we have touched him. the point man at the front here. and i'll see how post. helped get him across hopefully safely. but of course the rescuers have got to make it to the other side too. right. but getting a man across the canyon is one of the simpler of the rescue ranger and there are plenty of other obstacles in the way with a room to day visiting the mountains during the season it's essential that new ranges are prepared for everything you need to make sure all the same is secure.

get to smooth as possible and that was where i came in. kind of human. against the wall. and. i really have the easy job you know i certainly needed a bit of help getting him over the last. rites. get zero. zero. zero. because. these guys have to put in to become rescue ranges. feeling prepared for any of

a long while if the ranges i'm headed on into the mountains one of my favorite parts of any trip is checking out the local wildlife and i heard high up in the peaks here there are some very famous residents. so i'm going in search of the legendary. these. and an expert never hurts. hello. to the two or a special breed of cajun mountain go to have made their home here for thousands of years the highly prized by hunters for their meat and their huge horns they're also smart enough to keep plenty of distance between them and. a pretty coming these mountain goats it's hunting season and they haven't moved from the top of those mountains we would have been able to sort of though. sadly it seemed that that was

as close to the torah as we were going to get but there was another skill i had to learn just in case i was ever around here on a very different sort of expedition. so there's no getting away from it if you're going hunting you need to be able to handle one of these as the closest all of a got to following live rounds has been in a game so it's going to show me how to do it. right. there right now. i have never really mixed so understandably i was eager to learn how to best not to accidentally kill myself. but. this is a most in frightful seven point six two caliber. can fire you must aim at first pressing the button to the shoulder. the distance between the eye and the scope should be some seven centimeters. into the sights look if not.

then pull the trigger slowly. and fire you probably will. so patiently explain the process apparently my rifle dates back to before the second world war so it was about as tried and tested as a firearm could be and with that small to scope surely my plastic didn't stand a chance. i do a little for us on this program this one i am recording. is going to get right into you shoulda so i don't dislike ac and then squeeze the trigger. and after all that build up. i completely miss who. the bottle is still alive but you know what they say if at first you don't succeed oh ah.

ok. yeah second never saw straight down the middle. oh no you actually hit that. look it's moving that's not fake that's real. come down unfortunately that was pretty much as good as it got but i did manage to hit one other thing before we ran out of bullets. brothels and concrete pillars stern dead. on the mountain goats live to fight another day ever. feeling confident that i would now survive any tourist sneak attacks i left saw and carried on hiking into the hills and when i reached an ancient watchtower i knew i was close to one of the region's most memorable sights.

the views here and of the seventy are almost endlessly beautiful but if you come up to the mountains and search for a while you can find a seemingly innocent looking place with a rather since. this place is called dotted gulfs all leaders grange and it's a somber as it sounds. is a local journalist and told me a little about its history. this so-called town of the dead is one of the largest nicopolis is in europe in russia. fifty different families are buried here in the east. three most four hundred years until the end of the eighteenth century living plague victims were brought here by their families and simply left to die. each building belong to a different family and the bigger your two the richer you were. the drawing windy

climate is kept the bones here in excellent condition some even have tufts of hair still clinging to the scalp. but you just come forget how they got here. i can understand that you had to separate the infected from the healthy but i can't think of anything more terrifying. being brought here say placed among the bodies of your relatives alive and ready in your own to. us is a fascinating insight into the region's history. and i was sorry to leave it behind and i was ready for some slightly less chilling with the city and eventually. as you watch this tape i can only imagine the fear and the despair that you face

for this is being recorded for viewing only after the disappearance of god's people from the earth. well it's a clash of cultures it's a class of civilizations to want to go back to the eighth century islamic law or do we want to enjoy the blessings of the bush liberal. really christianity is one of the only religion i think the only one that actually respects the rights of people who don't like. the spirit it. is taking place. on the station. ready to. wait for your moment one of the time and exclaim. god bless you.

brightened. soon from plans to impression it's. nice clean stuff tante dot com. you can easily spend days sightseeing in the acetylene wilderness but i needed to get back to the capsule valley kavkaz and that meant i needed a taxi. amazingly even up here in the mountains in a coke zero can still get pretty good phone reception because that doesn't help if like me you've forgotten the charge of the thing but it's even stuck out here in the middle of nowhere that might not be such a big problem. at least if you know when to find an enterprising local engineer to

use it i was definitely a first of a. plug in the middle of the outfits. and we have a life. using metal salvaged from an old mine and a little help from mother nature action has built his own hydroelectric power station and supplies him in a few lucky neighbors with free electricity and he can crank up the voltage when it he likes this is sluice gates. you regulate how much water comes out any one side. the water flows down the channel and through a two and a half ton turbine which turns an excellent and supplies power to the generator meaning actual constantly has more than three hundred volts of electricity on tap. how's that for a one man engineering project produces enough electricity his. own work that crane and power another twenty. he won the houses as well.

unfortunately it turns out that a taxi will even pick you up out here for the right price. and back in line to have cast i was ready to check out a different kind of power. there's always been a strong relationship in the caucuses between his horse and here in the set here it's no different but only the very best roy to get a chance to join the trip. once again please don't bend your knees to legs. i like chargers have performed all of the rusher in europe there's no easy ride in this company. i feel good you know. the ground. game. bring useful to. the whole troop exuding glamour and danger i could see why people

would flock to see them perform but what exactly does it take to become a stunt rider. the us why each person has their own story that if you come to a theater above all else i love animals after all i was born in the year of the horse i like whole says this one is i like my work. is the biggest. she's my favorite student she came here after finishing high school school and she's with us yes. now we'll try to show you the grip course of every horseman going at you know. what i mean straight legs sit down softly with your turn james sort of like a process. i guess some of that. clinton writing a few times in my travels around russia so obviously i was moved and ready to take the next step. apparently a full year is the troops most compliant horse perfect for some how much i.

everything's fine it's impossible to. get to the doing a press. make it seem so i settle for a quick pattern. isn't this. rushing around and leaping out of your saddle. i can't imagine people paying to watch it but it suits me just but i think now go go go a funny. straight legs us line don't bend your name you know you are just a fun year and i like to prepare for that makes spectacular i'm back in town i have another appointment time needed to keep. so that should give you an idea of how friendly the people are here in assessing i've only been there

a few days and i've already been invited to a wedding unfortunately my best suit is languishing in a wardrobe back in moscow which means that if i want to look at fault i'm going to need some help. this is the house of his old traditional tailors that's been supplying growing screens guests for the best part of twenty eight. courses have their distinct style. sheets costume is made to order and no detail ispat. the graffiti these days and ask them graphic nationals to let them all a grandmother's is used to sweep such golden embroidery and wave this costumes as you do when. ever they like to use is the one of a question was one of being general plot of the cost you women used to make centuries is mad. it doesn't yes to make wondrous. and there's

one other accessory that's always included these are at the full open in the wedding where the groom should lead a flank around brights head with three times is in five and five and bottom of the first. but those that cleans it as much give the bears to seven healthy boys and one healthy girl but those same length and then she takes it up but this authenticity doesn't come cheap and oligarchs diesel wants me down the aisle in a humvee. thousand dollars old the creation. of the final stroke isn't it beautiful very beautiful but i was in the market for a slightly cheaper option but i was still getting the royal treatment would you not only as a measures. name. but i'll warn. this is the way you quickly find out the horrible truth about how much weight you put on

or how many inches said to me to put on your dentures or russia. for really just a concern but that's because the good of me that it's fifty one. and the slip is six to so. much as to still be on my way with us for bonus. with all my measurements recorded is old and how ladies got to work in a few days later i was ready to try on my new outfits but just couldn't finish adjusting my bullets belt. and the finishing touch to this amazing outfit so. i think i'm ready for some don't. finally the big day had arrived john allen's wedding we still had a while before we would see to go and pick up shauna. people arrived it became increasingly obvious that i was the only person wearing traditional dress and they

were expecting over a thousand guests. so you might think the reception is already begun but you'd be wrong because the point doesn't even made her appearance yet this is just a three party and that's my kind of wedding. to. assess years monte means a lot of food clothes lot of toasts. the first ones to do and. the sessions to some. numbers three through ten are a bit of a blur. and they serve me then to the guests are invited to meet the lady of the day. she might have already said hello to a few hundred people but joan his days are only just beginning. as this is one of the most for the whole city entire ceremony of the bride is introduced to be oldest much space and members of the prince family sees officially welcomed us because of that. but that doesn't mean that their old relatives are just going to let her

leave. this is one way of keeping the bride from being married apparently all these guys have to hold her back in order to get them to leave the broader needs to pay for the privilege. to some good old fashioned bribery because we're already. so the ransom has been paid. for the girl said get out of the way. a law is the equivalent of a little secession. giveaway of the brides. another round of crazy drawing and horn honking later we were back at the groom's party and it was time for john to be formally unveiled. the whole day has been a constant mix of food don't i'm solemn ceremony but amazingly

a lot and jonah happened once but then i noticed that they both slipped out of the main hall. so it goes against all. but brides on our group are actually in the same original the same day of their wedding that is pretty unusual as they call it way from each other. i list the happy couple to it but by then my outfit of the trying to do little attention and i can say i was surprised when i was told to prove my innocence and adults right. here exceeded all my expectations from the beauty of its mountains to the warmth and hospitality of its people it's a place i really didn't want to leave it doesn't matter who you all who way you're
