one thirty pm in moscow the zero zero t. headlines and is battling to restore power to the fukushima nuclear plant further explosions although fears of further radiation leaks are growing the country is now upgraded its nuclear accident rating to five out of seven incident has consequences beyond the plant's local area more than six thousand people are known to have died more than ten thousand are still missing. and libya is bracing for airstrikes from france and the u.k. as the u.n. security council backs and no fly zone to protect civilians russia opposes foreign

intervention but didn't veto the move saying it supports the humanitarian motives behind it that off the regime is promising to strike back at civilian aircraft and ships in the mediterranean. next hour he heads to the south of russia to explore the picturesque city of verona stay with us. rudisha is a russian city on the drawings sitting of ukrainian border in the country's southwest it's a regional campus with a thriving business community and student population. owns a nearly one million people it's a place of innovation research and close mission. in the last few years an influx of cash has completely modernize the city center and there are plenty of fashionable new p.t.'s and cafes standing alongside growing issues ground on the books. but towering over the move was the stunning enunciation

cathedral the third largest church in russia finally reopened in two thousand and knowing after eleven years of rebuilding with a brand new six time bell calling the city to worship and that was a pretty good advertisement for one local company. oh really. it's a reason to go to the good see what you make here yeah yeah so we have always well three let's go i will show you that sister. and belief spells has certainly made a name for itself our foundry was found in one thousand nine hundred ninety nine my father you see this family become a business. and serves as a our web biggest doing nothing rash and so in the walls we produce every year about four hundred two hundred tons of this global domination has come on the back of an toilet traditional bell making techniques.

now this is our watches so. this all step of making bells i hear will make different bags icons this creep and then pull back on the force of the sales and the value. if i feel we make we only people call plans. when the things get i am sad that's me gaps and every hour every hour valuable. some heavy duty safety gear because that furnace has been either the one thousand so serious to nearly two thousand five hundred. years some recycling unix info in.

a bank here of old soviet kopek ok and there are cells made to make a little contribution to the filmmaking process. this is the most spectacular and certainly the most dangerous part of the whole process this radio crucible is filled with most and groans busy you can see. it's going to go over here. in their case is found well but. it's funny and position a funny little bit is ready to fly. you can see the soup of copper and say in all this most some bronze being pulled into this huge coast it let's go it's a good round about a week to cool down before the whole thing can be taken outside and the next stage of the precious begins.

oh so that the workers really get to shake things up but there's. something else we've been basically. just fish out to see if they. keep. the crosses to still fall from over the new born bell needs to be washed to remove any traces of clay and has been sand blasted and polished to give it a much surface. finish the other finished products ready to begin their journeys to churches and temples across the globe including one six hundred fifty kilos monster. case right there can leave russia's biggest foundry without seeing what its biggest bell sounds like.

were really after all the fire and brimstone it seemed like a good time to clear my head so i ventured down to the ridge assigned to meet another group of local crafts with thoroughness was historically famous as the ship building city in fact it's where i am for a piece of the first bill the country's very first navy now those days may be long gone but burnish his love of boats is still alive and well. even if these verona ship builders are working on a slightly smaller scale. from the city's model post club for more than fifteen years teaching the next generation to take to the waterways from submarines to walsh it has a huge number of models for the children to work on and with the championship winning replica proudly on display plenty to aspire to as well. this model

has taken part in a national championship is won the cup that you can see over there this model of a cannon boat has taken part in two world championships and the european competition. comes luckily for me the big kids have a go to. the. left. the books are all remote controls and after a quick lesson from eagle we were out on the open water full steam a. go or i guess it's not exactly sailing around the horn but they also allow for is negotiating the british canal with christmas jumper the fish and. of course it's never good to get too complacent about these things i was about to find out some

trauma here was the most soulful as well its difficulties and we had some ocean rescue missions but thankfully even here in the middle of russia the u.s. navy is on how to save the day go boys. to get close a. little benefit to nudging it became clear that measures were required. so sometimes. even the lines in america is not enough and the other time i was in zero. zero zero boys. my stranded ship back to school but understandably legal and co workers let me live with any more of their precious books so i went off in search of some of the most robust and the welsh and the ruinous business will to some. source this is

a plant is a sculptor and carpenter and no project is too big or too strange to take home. apart from the old fantasy forest creature flat has a workshop full of beautifully crafted pieces from a wild boar table clock to an eagle embossed coat rack so two. different. but of course each piece has to start somewhere. something like this i salute perfect play with power tools i love it. when i was going to give me a quick course in woodwork one a warm and that meant getting hold of a chisel. i

was whistling away. but i couldn't help thinking back to the piece i'd seen out on the street. we might be able to do something similar. to rejoin have a go i want to biggest sculpture. let's go. you. plant told me to meet him out in the woods but when i arrived he was nowhere to be seen. by leaps and walked for what seemed like hours my mind started playing tricks on me. why couldn't the eye build useful mirrors in caracas why should other people be able to scull to not me it was in fact. and now somebody was going to pay me.

that. james. let me show you how dangerous. it seems laughed at narrowly avoided the road ashamed so massacre. of or an ashtray office table was just about to begin. there's nothing subtle about this form of sculpture and the absence of me down to the grounds on one side sliced off a bit here in the blood starting work on freeing the statue from the tree trunk and it was long before something with a wintry feel to it against take shape. so i call kathy at five and hopefully

you can make out a beautiful family penguin portrait here. lessons without. supposed to go through with us from leaving bland to put the finishing touches to our run talk to friends i headed back into the city to visit some more crossman working on a slightly larger scale. one company in the bigger is certainly better than the largest employer in the city their territory is boss and the product they make just about fits in that. this is the dearest and cross production association of the shoulders and inside this time six brand new i am one forty eight of mine to space. their ukrainian jet plane that's been around since two thousand and seven each one's

worth around twenty five million dollars the muscle is aiming to produce fifty of them by two thousand and thirteen. plus designs they're going to have to consider the speed up production and that's when these cars coming. issues programs are helping to develop a new money fracturing system more than fifteen thousand different items need to go into the system and that's information goes straight to the production plant. each employee of songs to one station for the new multimillion dollar equipment means they have less to do than ever before. like to hear about say no if he is changing this laws a few years ago i'm out of the machine like that's would have taken around a hundred hours to make this beautiful piece of plain gold but nowadays i've got these big also made three drills. and they can do them in spades.

and i saw it i go take a look at the finished school. as this is what a brand new plane looks like the seeds of the business close and then sixty and economy. be in the case of the exit so here comes here. of course the really impressive stuff is in the cockpits right on the straits of the captain's chair here still very important controls that. they said liked everything yeah great. the planes of id been in service since two thousand and nine but moving two hundred orders worldwide the people at first so busy few years ahead of them. so that's what six weeks work for ten

thousand people that's like one wonderful rates may be coming to an ass trip the. forty eight may already be flying around russia but i wasn't ready to catch a lift back to moscow just yet there was plenty more i wanted to see in the rotors before i had to be. hungry for the full sun we've got. the biggest issues get a human voice face to face with the news makers. cultures that so much we're going to need a lot of. japan's agony in the world when a disaster hits a major economic and trading power the forces of globalization punish the. you know just quickly about the road this is how fall the people work. industrialists and taken a look at both large and small businesses and there's

a real energy that everyone seems to share. so i was wondering how do people blow off steam here but it seems quite a few take a trip to the local schools for. whites just because i'm going to have a go at the game a block so apparently it requires planing speed listening reflexes and nerves of steel. and it helps if you can catch bits and. bobs who is normally play outside on a huge pitch but this version unfortunately for me is apparently a great deal for. play. the game is played in joules various me looked at first and of the russian game as well so this one is more dynamic and interesting than one played out dualistic washout. it seemed like a cross between facebook crickets and. there were plenty fings i have to remember.

the target of the game is to store as many points as possible as a supposed to get to the audience beyond it online and come back with if they don't have to build. is not supposed to be on the sidelines. team get six shots. through seems simple enough now i just time to learn what makes a great laptop pinched. this issue in this position you hit as you stay on this. which is very technical i think i may just go for be it in hope technique the seemingly flexibility may be the key so this game. just listed on the this is the best heavy duty is it. is just killing my back. and then like a coiled spring i unleashed my first shot. but here we go.

i just totally took out the referee. as a clean hit you know will be sorry. i'm going to have like you know fred but i did and it did. seem a senior officials wasn't the best way to begin my luck's a career but my new teammates didn't seem to mind and it wasn't long before i was up to neutering two partly. because two points i think i might put out because i got course i'm not sure. that lead to blinding speed may have desist me if you. saw the side steps know what it was. but wasn't exactly sure what the final school was going to set the same topic. but. also the close victory i decided it

wouldn't hurt to get in a little practice i'm trying to get so much he makes a little better too. money was mixing up was good it was huge i studied architecture and this is interesting it's very interesting i can take your links scotian if you like just yesterday. bruce has an excellent reputation in russia as a university city and the next day i met up with max outside the architectural faculty. and it sounds like studying here has been picked. well james this is my university this is actually. the first year was the most difficult one to many subjects that we had to. study professional stuff. everything related to construction will be. pretty intense stuff this is a six year cools and students can choose halfway through three want to specialize in architecture or construction. the grocers have around twenty people taking

lessons in cool basics but also getting the chance to put their imaginations interaction. but when you think about this beauty james where do i get this the city is it yeah it's where irish. and buzzing builders have a chance to examine materials they might use and down in the department labs you can do just that. so of course if you're involved in construction it is vitally important to know how strong the materials you're using are so in the name of science we must sacrifice this block of concrete. and that we went. around a minute later the results were in. wait for it. were. very low experiments so you go reading here of four hundred one killer newton so that means that concrete can take forty times with the weight discovering what

it does physics school's out for the day and walmart's went off for a lot so rematch we have a slightly unusual point of keep forty three so obviously seems to be holmes and very clever people but. this one guy who says he's working on something really special. is why he wants me here in the middle of the. anybody. constancy. oh. no i think that's the good stuff yes the real magic to say you know i'll show you. and apparently

it's all based around this mysterious black box in the middle of the room. that's enough. but once it's reached its limits. and we're ready to go. press the. james. magic check this out. this is constantine's police visa and it's a three d. holographic projection. the fully b.z. uses a bracing disc that excites the crew is creating a mist then special fans and pipes blowing directly up with. this image here. that reflects and.

i wouldn't be surprised if it turns out to be constantine and stick it to the plate . so you put together a mist protector and a little bit of magic and this is what you get i think you know i'm not the only person. who's going to. i was running out of time in varanus and there was one other place i still needed to check out but luckily for me doing things quickly isn't a problem for these guys. as one of those reassuringly unchanging things about russia but decades it's been chugging down the nation's roads doing nothing very spectacular but that's not particularly exciting so here in the road there's a group of people who like to take their lot.

into a super takes effect. and that's where eagle comes. we are training for competition. here you can see our professional racing. but i think we'd better start with a carriage shall we go. do your his friends a serious rally drive us to be competitive need a complete overhaul. everyone in the car is of a different class which and with that it has very good performance in terms of speed or more of the mobile and the wheel can be removed in no time. but if the car has an all wheel drive in this russian the thousand five hundred fifty horsepower. even if we take it to european championships and. if and when this is the steering column in case of an accident the wheel touches which helps keep the pilot safe and

. who knows reassuring safety features surely even a novice from a secure counselor. will still have a dr of course you can go for that you will need to go through a brief training exercise ok lesson thought. so this looks like your average law that you won't fall in driving around for instance and the difference is that but one will take you about eight seconds to get snow to sixty i just want to do it in three point eight. you can probably do the security system is a little silly. and once i was securely buckled him it was time for a quick practice looks.

like. such a sick child so we're. going to get a. good one single behind the truck i was ready to put most of the laws up to a profit just sleep. last. night. i'm sorry. like this i know that. somehow i have taken the lead but then from out of nowhere. subsidies and sensible. to technology issues.

and then finally a long straight solutions ahead of me. ok so i did have a look at a low point the same way again. it would be. but no girl. that really got into. or got back to the last. thing on my visit was all the gas. it's too much to feel inspired to spending some time in romish this is a truly enterprising city where you can find cross one all praising the same way they have for hundreds of years alongside academics and engineers using the very latest technology it's a city that's in touch with its past and that's moving firmly so was the future.
