global economy kinds of reports. if. if if fixed. now. this is on c coming to you live from moscow the headline. there's another new emerging. atomic power plant in japan where the government spokesman say a partial meltdown of the second nuclear reactor may have been triggered by the country's worst ever wait at least fifteen people have been exposed to radio city while residents have been evacuated from a train to kilometer exclusion zone around the facility and work for a full save radiation level with. japan's voice data trauma caused

a huge tsunami which swept away entire villages and submerged rolls areas of the seven hundred people are confirmed dead thousands are still unaccounted for. in other news the afghan president says a major under american troops should leave his country this comes just days after hunted karzai is cousin as well as nine children who are collecting firewood with killed in separate u.s. attorney it's. one of the arab boxing no fly zone over libya as number states decide to alter the u.n. security council to impose the restriction the league is united in calling for kind of a doctor to go meanwhile leave is still granted groups god can elsewhere rebels come under more pressure from forces loyal to them and. let's go back to our top story this hour by calling all senior spoke to christopher simons i prefer said the international christian university in tokyo next he shares his thoughts on was direction the nuclear incident in japan. although the

situation is quite dangerous it seems as though hopefully it will not be as serious as chernobyl. reactor is cooled entirely by water. 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. is entirely water so the material venting into the atmosphere will likely just steam radioactive steam in the case of sharon noble the reactor was moderated by graphite and.

holds the radiation and spirits much further as dust and gas so. that was the significant problem with sharon over the the neutron moderator in the airplane that react it was different and the radiation could spread much further 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 at the core of the reactor there has has been breaches in danger . and not 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 to piers is that no reactor building number one is the site of the explosion now we see is the oldest of the six reactors and daiichi was built in one nine hundred seventy nine so it suggests that the oldest structure on the site was also the weakest keep.

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 what we're seeing. gusts right that's right suggests that the government. is taking precautions but it seems as though they're suggesting god as the radioactive steam which is vents hearing from building number one cools down is fair of course since it's night now as that steam condenses into liquid water will enter the water supply carrying. radioactive iodine and cesium isotope so with it which could contaminate people in the vicinity of 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 more we could body. i believe that measure out of one thousand my perceivers was quite close to the reactor so obviously the main concern is for emergency workers firefighters and military in the area people further away are probably not out so where your risk of course the the radiation is carried by particles in the air. 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 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 exam question it's difficult to answer without knowing exactly what's happening on the ground the military and the firefighters who who are in 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 or 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 would 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 what 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 chair noble come up and have been repeated now or what is the effect for the rest of the world some have been mentioning it's an issue of the wind to carry radiation of the seas the contaminated what exactly is it impact the implication of such a disaster on the rest of the world. and will hopefully first of all hopefully this disaster will be compared to chernobyl relatively we can hope for a relatively small scale disaster as i mentioned only one out of six reactors at fukushima daiichi seems to have exploded or not the reactor itself with a building around it yes of course depending on the prevailing winds and the and the sea conditions that radiation will be carried elsewhere in the worlds. i

don't want to speculate and 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 cools only by water that this radioactive material. i do 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 chernobyl when radioactive dust clouds reached europe and north america the pattern is of the cause but as we've been saying 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 designed to withstand such quakes and the second question is what is the risk is it 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 for 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 these reactors are built to last now as i mentioned these daiichi reactors are now there approximately forty years old the oldest one was built in one thousand seventy nine and i believe the 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 has youth as you've seen the effects of this very

powerful earthquake on tokyo have been. wait a minute 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 the quake the nuclear reactors would have been built to even stricter standards so these and these fukushima daiichi reactors were built to contain to withstand rather the impact of a significant tectonic are going to be 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 and backup diesel 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 to diesel generators and sells improvements can always be made and new generations of light water reactors are certainly safe. i would say i'm i'm of two minds about whether japan should have nuclear power in terms of the current global environmental situation it's a better alternative than fossil fuels but of course given today there are significant dangers in a country such as thank you very much for a taking after your time as a first time as for an international christian university in telltale hungry for the full story we've got it first the biggest issues get the human voice face to face with the news makers.

we hear it because of our apache outs that. god promised them this is the land belongs to our. will if they are still going to be thinking the. gold chosen people will not believe that god is real estate agent say look at this that is this for you guys and this guy this is as for you. this is. this for my right then. cut.

he needs. intensive no number of both of our vehicles disprove that i must say the. most dangerous. radiation that they exist in the nature. of the group in the vicinity of known differentiated so produce is so much the changes including the pantsuit of the leukemia. and why being out of the immune system. you don't have to have a college degree you know you have to. understand that if you spread radioactive materials all over somebody's backyard that you've got a problem. wealthy british style wholesome.

markets. scandal find out what's really happening to the global economy for a no holds barred look of the global financial headlines you need to watch. more news today violence is once again flared up the first in these are the images . from the streets of canada. today. the official g.o.p. commission. called talk from the.

video. my old. mistress. called. there's another new emergency i believe because she wrote a totally calm plant in japan with a government spokesman saying the partial meltdown of the second nuclear reactors in my heart when triggered by the country's worst ever ask wait at least fifteen people have been exposed to radio to see that residents have been evacuated from a twenty kilometer exclusion zone around the vicinity where officials say radiation levels are rising and. japan's worst got a trauma called the huge tsunami which swept away entire villages and submersibles areas over seven hundred people are confirmed dead but dozens are still unaccounted for and. in other news the outman president says nacer and american troops should

leave his country this comes just days after honeycombs eyes cousin as well as nine children who were collecting phone i would kill to separate us the times. the arab league has finds a no fly zone over the need as member states decide to ask the u.n. security council to impose a restriction the need is noted in calling for kind of ok don't think you've got a brain while leave is still gripped by chaos well the rebels come under more pressure from forces loyal to them into. just a headline is no news and fifteen minutes time now it's time for the sports news with unit. thanks for joining us if this is sports today i mean these are headlines this hour

. on world the longest ever russian football season has gone off with a scoreless draw down saw a protocol this is the next to cross those are the first teams in action this year . would head we catch up with newly reinstated russian basketball coach david blotz who shares his thoughts on the challenges that lie ahead for the cheap cars and seven european champions. a new goal stateside the national football league begins its lockhart's after team owners feel true reach agreement with the future. and historic russian premier league season this kicked off crusted are still shaking off the rust as they open extended campaign war games always played throughout the winter also may next year a good start for the newly promoted cross the boys the southern russian not fit earning a point away to near neighbors to see all the little scoreline chances well they

as well three mil the score to the same petersburg man meaning we also take a two one lead in the best of seven much series and. russian basketball receive the timely boost last week when david blots agreed to stay on as head coach of the national team richard concorde fleet called up at the moment to sell food was a candid as ever and front of the camera. this season hasn't been a kind one for russian basketball but the country's representatives in a year lease a scone him to put the first hurdle this was to secure surprising for the argument had been one of the continent's houses over the last few years but black believes may have been a marquee from storm form so this is just amazing the amount of injuries and physical difficulties that they've had this year i don't know how you. how you can combat that how you can fight against that you know the losing the main players

that they've that they've missed throughout the whole year particularly i'm talking of the. guys from the national team you know it was difficult to replace those guys on the other hand you've got to recognize it's just there was an eight final fours in a row something that's never been done i will forever will be done and you got to maybe give them a break. however there have been a few plus points the russian league is one of the trying to stick is paid in yes' and looks like say it's kind of a good governments maybe finally challenged the 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 but one thing about the league this year is that there's less former spy novels less emphasis on the foreigners more russian players are getting minutes and time to show themselves in and improving and for me as the russian national coach that's a good thing. but what are some old problems still remain point god being the key one jail holding this field russia spreading position with distinction for

a number of years the pittsburgh native is now thirty four and can be relied on for much longer and black believes it's up to the country's coaches to try and find a solution to this problem for your position is the most problematic zisha in russia and has been for many years. and this is something that needs to be not only discussed but needs to be addressed from a teaching and educational standpoint first at the lowest levels and then as. work up into the higher levels in order to improve the likes attribute your quotes told until i'm going to show off a family trying to provide a solution of point gone however they in no way need to be in the same class as some like cold and flu life dimitris de'monte did so ricky rubio clinton's top stones are not as it should come down billy's a country still has some way to good till it can produce play as a piece count got some interesting theories on this by the way why they're not natural born in russia some of them are. educational and some of them are.

cultural some of them are geographical just to give you a small example you know ball handling and freedom of play usually has developed playgrounds and how many people are playing outside in the playgrounds in minus twenty five degrees you know that's a geographical reason it's very difficult to find kids who are just out there playing with the bowl and playing free and developing the kind of imagination and openness for the game that you find when in warm weather countries where guys just on the streets play it all the time you know it seems like a little thing but it's a big thing maybe one of the reasons we don't see a lot of natural point guards and it's pretty lenient for russian basketball and that will continue to have to make do because the resources he has are disposal i learned from like you the american israeli will find a cure for strickland position at the upcoming european championships and the way you're meeting is ongoing search will continue. you don't see

a. car that's their possible but move to the n.b.a. we're boston's big three were done sized in philadelphia six years they think eastern conference taking celtics home reality paul pierce and kevin garnett combining for just thirty points in the close eating i need except for a loss it's really said that if it's prone to early in this whole sewing projects actually make. shots for the water often though seem to lose the spring in their step down the stretch returns rondo missing a limb the largest part of the roof holiday for me is. in the third the fourth quarter seeing the celtics miss eight straight prosecutes in the sixty minutes really by points in the city of. bell for jersey came back from twenty points trying to force overtime and then beat the visiting los angeles clippers they mikhail prokhorov own team left to celebrate

a fourth straight win after the nets biggest comeback in two years toronto soft india while charlotte the portland group is continuing on his strong bid for the n.p.p. award scoring thirty four points in chicago's right spots housework kevin love continues to show his affection for double doubles the twenty two year old extending his run of the whole figure of twenty. three fifty three straight games in victory over. russell westbrook also showing off his thirteen points eleven assists helping defender beat detroit the top ranking team in the league meanwhile got some live shots flying around the home arena causing a delay in the clash with the king's son tony those surviving ducks scare to take the win five points. america's most popular sport meanwhile has started a lock on it's the n.f.l. players' union the feeling to agree on how to divide over nine billion dollars of

its profits the union has been this sort of five votes clearing the way for players lawsuits to face over twenty eleven season it will not be decided through the courts. as you know the union walked away from the mediation process today to sort of. we do believe that mediation is the serious and fastest way to reach an agreement that works for the players for the clubs and we believe alternately this is going to be negotiated at the b.b.c. table so they've chosen to pursue though the strategy is their choice but we will be prepared to negotiate an agreement and get something done that is fair to the players and for the clubs. brings us finally to rugby union where the shock of the season's six nations championship occurred at today italy beating reigning champions france for the first time in the tournaments history seems well incredible in rome as the italians overcame

a twelve point deficit of half an hour to go to claim their opening with all three advent seventeen point man merkle burger moscow doing everything right with his glutes much to the home setters delights elsewhere in the same wheels kept their championship hopes alive with a hard fought six point win over at the visiting are that. i'm not is all your sport from i'll see you soon where weather is coming up in just a technical.
