he. really believes some science students are. some of. the few jerks however. this is john c. coming to life and will spur rich uncle to have difference. and explosion are good for pushing out atomic told not to enter upon triggered fears of the possible need their fallout after a devastating earthquake they react as roof has collapsed injuring four workers people within twenty kilometers of the blinds have been moved from. the plant was at a truck that was a huge tsunami which swept away entire villages and submerged cars and there is over seven hundred people are confirmed dead about frozen sister unaccounted for.

now the news they are been president says nato and american troops should leave his country this comes just days after made cars eyes cousin as well as nigel going to work collecting firewood but killed and suffered through us at times. and the arab league has been it's a no fly zone over libya as member states decide to ask the u.n. security council to impose the restriction the levy is united in calling for gunnell khadafi to go meanwhile leave it still gripped by tales while rebels from under constant gun forces in the world of the news at. let's go back to our top story this hour that my colleague ted song sing it spoke to christopher simons a professor at the international christian university in tokyo next he shows his thoughts on the world's direction the nuclear incident in japan could take. although the situation is quite dangerous it seems as though hopefully it will not

be serious as chernobyl. reactor is cooled entirely by watter. a meltdown is simply when the nuclear materials cannot be cooled and the temperature rises in the containment area and the reactor materials themselves to the point at which they destroy the reactor that surrounds them of course these temperatures have to reach about five hundred degrees celsius for the metal and for the uranium itself probably in the order of eight hundred to one thousand degrees celcius. the good news is that that in the daiichi reactor there the coolant is entirely water so the material venting into the atmosphere will likely be just steam radioactive steam in the case of sharon noble the reactor was moderated by graphite and. holds the radiation and spritz much further as dust and gas so. that was the

significant problem with sharon noble the the neutron moderator in the airplane that reactor was different and the radiation could spread much further than just to give us an idea for those of us have never seen a reactor when the roof of a reactor collapses what exactly does that mean does it mean that the whole facility is breach of the core of the reactor there has has been breaches in danger . enough not necessarily now you have to remember that at the daiichi site there are i believe six active reactors all of which have shut down it appears as though we have to build a number one is the site of the explosion now this is the oldest of the six reactors and daiichi was built in one thousand nine hundred seventy nine so it suggests that the oldest structure on the site was also the weakest link. being advised to stay in their homes and not drink water turn off their air conditioners

so it sounds like the government is preparing people for a significant nuclear event he just said that people were asked to a not drink of water then what what are their options there you mean tap water is that's what we're seeing that's right that's right that suggests that the government. is taking precautions but it seems as though they're suggesting that as the radioactive steam which is venting from building number one cools of course it's the it's night now as that steam condenses into liquid water will enter the water supply carrying. radioactive iodine and cesium isotope so with that which treat contaminated people in the vicinity the biological effects will depend on a number of factors for example if you are a larger person you have a larger body mass absorbing that same amount of radiation that suggests that the most vulnerable people will be children and the elderly people with

a smaller body mass or a more we could body. i believe that a measure of the one thousand might perceive or it's was quite close to the reactor so obviously the main concern is for emergency workers firefighters and military in the area of people further away are probably not at so great a risk of course the the radiation is carried by particles in the air. but diminishes geometrically with distance so hopefully the levels ten kilometers away or twenty kilometers away are not nearly as high at the moment what else can the government how have they been having this and what else can they do is it going to be a show of that power is it going to be an issue of machinery what does it entail to contain it. something like this. yes when there is an accent question it's difficult to answer exactly what's happening on the ground the military and the

firefighters who are into the city working on this problem are certainly specially trained to deal with this kind of emergency. i can imagine that they are attempting to cool. the remaining reactor core using high pressure water if the roof of the building is off then about water it will simply vaporize into radioactive steam the amount of water required to cruel the reactor core will be significant and unfortunately emergency workers in the vicinity will be receiving. quite dangerous levels of radiation. at this point the best thing that the public can do or the government can do for the public is to move people as far away as possible and they will we have the whole world watching what's going on in japan

memories of a chair noble come up and have been a repeat said now what is the effect for the rest of the world some have been mentioning it's an issue of the wind to carry radiation the seas the contaminated what exactly is the it impact the implication of such a disaster on the rest of the world. well hopefully the first of all hopefully this disaster will be compared to chernobyl relatively we can hope a relatively small scale disaster and as i mentioned only one out of the six reactors at fukushima daiichi seems to have exploded or not the reactor itself or the building around it yes of course depending on the prevailing winds down the road and the sea conditions that radiation will be carried i will swear in the worlds. i don't want to speculate without having more facts but

i would personally like to be cautiously optimistic that given the nature of this reactor given the fact that it is a light water boiling water reactor cooled by water. this radioactive material will. either not be carried too far or that the effects of that damage will be will be contained and this will not be a situation comparable to try to chernobyl when radioactive gas crowds reached europe and north america japan is other than a cost with as needed say three tectonic plates it's definitely prone to earthquakes and you have a nuclear power plants well for my first question is can it has been decided it's been designed to withstand such quakes and the second question is is the risk is that such a great risk to have a nuclear power plant in the first place in a country like japan. yes the question of whether or not going to japan should have nuclear power is of course the upper most in many people's minds tonight of

course yes these these reactors have been built for any eventuality not only earthquake but some kind of. external damage from. some sort of accident whether. external impacts from a car or airplane and these reactors are built to last now as i mentioned these daiichi reactors are quite old now they're approximately forty years old the oldest one was built in one thousand nine hundred eighty nine and i believe their number six reactor was completed in the early one nine hundred eighty s. . the technology of the earthquake prevention and earthquake proofing technology such as it is has moved on since then and as you as you've seen the effects of this very powerful earthquake on tokyo have been. quite minimal we are very fortunate that japan has incredibly strict building codes and unlike the situation in kobe

it seems as though these codes have been followed and the buildings in tokyo and other parts of japan have resisted that quake and nuclear reactors would have been built to even stricter standards so these these fukushima daiichi reactors were built to contain to withstand rather the impact of a significant tectonic event a problem in this case does not seem to be the structure of the reactor itself rather the fact that the for some reason the electricity supply provided by the backup generators that backup the usual generators failed and now these generators would be on site they would be very close to the reactor and i don't know what would cause them to fail other than the transmission lines to the reactor or the

earthquake damaging the diesel generators and sells improvements can always be made and the new generations of light water reactors are certainly safe i would say on my mom of two minds about whether japan should have nuclear power in terms of current global environmentalists situation it's a better alternative than fossil fuels but of course given today there are significant dangers in a country such as a parent thank you very much. for your time christopher assignments from international christian university in tokyo hungry for the full story we've got it for us to the biggest issues get the human voice face to face with the news makers . this in. the. dust and the media radium

. on the arab league has a box in the lines of an over libya as member states decide to all do our security council to impose the right restriction the league is united in calling for colonel gadhafi to be made while leave it still gripped by details while rebels come under more pressure from forces loyal to them to. more news for you just fifteen minutes time and right now it's time for the sports news with humans. thanks for joining us if this is sports today i mean you know neal these are headlines this hour. on world the longest ever russian football season has gone off with a scoreless draw done saw a protocol this is actually cross those are the first teams in action this year.

a timely puts last week when david plotz agreed to stay on as head coach of the national team richard from port caught up at the moment self was discounted as ever in front of the camera. this season hasn't been a kind one for russian people but the country's representatives in the year leaks a scar on him key the first hurdle his first city surprising probably on women but been one of the continent's houses over the last few years the black believes may have been unlucky the storm is just amazing the amount of injuries and physical difficulties that they've had the sheer i don't know how you. how you can combat that how you can fight against that you know the lose the main players that they've that they've missed throughout the whole year particularly i'm talking about. you know who are two of my guys from from the national team you know this is difficult to replace those guys and the other hand you've got to recognize the cesco was an

eight final fours in a row something that's never been done i don't know if it ever will be done and you got to maybe give them a break. however there have been a few plus points and russian league is one of the twenty's to dissipate in yeas and looks like say it's cause a new governments maybe finally charlie this season is all seen a reduction in the number of foreign players point a trade in the country which is certainly good news for russia's head coach the one thing about the league this year is that there's less foreigners and it was less emphasis on the foreigners more russian players are getting minutes and time to show themselves and and improving and for me as the russian national coach that's a good thing. i want to some old problem still remain point guard being the key one jail holder still russia spreading disease from with distinction for a number of years to pittsburgh native is not thirty four and can be relied on for much longer and black believes it's up to countries coaches to try and find a solution to this problem point guard position is the most problematic solution in

russia and has been for many years. and this is something that needs to be not only discussed needs to be addressed from the teaching and educational standpoint first at the lowest levels and then as we. work up into the higher levels in order to improve blocks attribute your thoughts told until i'm going to show off but firmly trying to provide a solution a point beyond i would've in no way need to be in the same class as some of my cold and flu like dimitris team on t.v. so ricky rubio conference top songs are not as they should i'm going to release a country still has some way to go to that can produce play as a piece count got some interesting theories on this by the way why they are not natural point guards and russian what some of them are. educational and some of them are. cultural some of them are geographical just to give you swallow example you know paul here in. freedom of play usually is developed on the

playgrounds and how many people are playing outside in the playgrounds in minus twenty five degrees so you know that's a geographical reason it's very difficult to find kids who are just out there playing with the ball and playing free and developing the kind of imagination and openness for the game that you find in warm weather countries where guys just out in the streets play it all the time you know it seems like a little thing but it's a big maybe one of the reasons we don't see a lot of natural point guards and it's been a lean year for russian gossage goal and that will continue to have to meet to get a few resources he has a disposal well it's unlikely the american israeli will find a cure for his problem position the head of the upcoming european championships and if you wish me his ongoing search will continue richard wolffe you don't see a. car that's possible of a move to the n.b.a. we're boston's big three were done sized in philadelphia as the sixers beat the

sort of but. we we do believe that mediation is the clearest fastest way to reach an agreement that works for the players for the clubs and we believe that ultimately this is going to be negotiated and we go to the people will be chosen to pursue the strategy and that is their choice but we will be prepared to negotiate a remake and get something done that is fair to the players and for the clubs. brings us finally to ruby union where the shock of the season's six nations championship courage that today italy beating reigning champions france for the first time in the tournaments history has seen as well incredible moment as the italians overcame a twelve point deficit of half an hour to go to claim their coping with the seventeen point man merkle burger moscow doing everything right with his gooch and much to the home side are still lights elsewhere on the tape wheels kept their
