a lot and i'm almost as eager as some shots eight he said and it went out through the muscovite side rosecrans third bottom six one place behind the band. while on sunday a third straight win for second place in it's with stephen regained top spot but has to start must i fall third place boulder go to ross doth reveal currently fourth world tight spot right now take on spartak moscow on only one of their. rematches good well it's true that. and over in the english premier league manchester united went ten points clear of the top party beating for them to know as old trafford dimitar berbatov opened up to twelve minutes and untangle the lens you have quickly added the second as united extended their lead over ascot you have two games in hand elsewhere they are be at the north netted the first half berth as everton won three nil at second bottom wolves blackburn drew one one of the. daniel sturridge scored in each office bolton it's the bottom of west ham three nil chloral blue to strike after sixty seven minutes

seven contest play again in a far on sunday. now red bull continue to dominate the new formula one season with their world champion sebastian vettel on pole position for the second race of the season this sunday in malaysia after winning the first race in australia bentyl qualified a tenth of a second head of my plans this moment and i'm circuits while other driver mark webber third on the grid alongside other mclaren jenson button and the german credited his position use the kinetic energy recovery system which reduces power from braking to basics i ration. very happy and because of them and i think to the guys on the team especially for the guys with the system we've got there are a lot of criteria obviously after the last race for not having run it all the time it's something we were proud of but we came here and here we saw that most of our

problems are problems and. i think if we would not have it today then we would not be here both of us so it's a great achievement and compliments to those guys and you know we all work hand in hand and. if this is the reward we keep working i was. very pleased. goals u.s. losses northern ireland's rory mcilroy was still the mountain catch after the second round but former world number one tiger woods also produced a stunning finish to go joint third waikoloa carried on from where he left off finishing his second round on ten under par overall and two shot lead over his playing partner australian clay sunday he's making his debut at the masters this isn't showing any no from the best round of the tournament so far eight hundred par but they'll both be wary of what's happened behind them tiger woods has shot up the leaderboard for bird is on the front nine weeks in some bogus pectin study the further run of five birdies on the back nine so he kindly six under par once i k.j.

choi thirty three shots off the me so i'm still everything to play for. sustained pressure so i was trying to stay patient. you know i made a mistake seven to three point seven and. i was trying to do is make shows even par for the day and on a par for the tournament at the tour and this other so i just put. it to a corner back like a hole and i've been right there in a ball game and i got hard it's obviously going to be a lot of fun out there tomorrow but at the same time. i'm going to be nervous. but you know that's what's not shown you know you're welcome you know i can i can deal with them pretty well i've been able to feel them pretty well before and just go out there and enjoy. a russia hasn't enjoyed the best of times in winter sports over the last couple of years but there's one area where russia is leading the world in the sport of paris ski and richer than portly caught up with want to top off shed some light on this spectacular discipline. it's not likely to become an

olympic event anytime soon but russia are proving to be a good leaders in the new spirit of paris. which is a plume based parachuting onto a piece and during the skis and channeling once we go into the bottom of a slope. the top of his butt head coach of the russian national team and he explained how it evolved. sport competition was born in. eighty three in. competition with. rescue services in our big. man's who is. a very good mountain ski skier and. very good personally with both men and women compete with the ultimate team to win the world championships the speech is popular with russia's military personnel who learn how to parachute during a service. the type of emphasizes it is risky discipline which is the more important

of the two but despite the interest in the country there are lack of training facilities at the moment and fortunately in present russia we have not many many places for ski training. our. country is you know we're. training in your own nonsense first of all and now i think we. have good facilities and possibilities in sochi. that could all change after such a games and the name for the sport of piracy is to eventually become a little big event and put up of hopes one day this will happen as the only way you can continue to help the sport develop. into a sport and. to came close to.

try to shore up our nice and very visible sport in ireland for. sochi two thousand and fourteen and also tried to organize world championships there because all international community were interested asking we'll always be competition. council for paris he's certainly a sport but not many people have heard about how it has plenty of potential to develop in russian especially with a number of new ski resorts popping up around the country and given the success of the russian team all of the world leaders there's going to be hell to increase its popularity richard fleet r.t. . and that's all the sports news i think.

space is one of our national security there is no substitute and there is no alternative to military dominance in space. bombs on target the time bell minimum cultural about the nuts will be able to deliver through space ship. better. company. to build muscle. power. and we must. be. several hundred. years of investment in the peaceful uses of body space. and this incredible investment from the united states and from the european union

and canada other countries like this all this stuff is completely in jeopardy if we start putting weapons in outer space. hungry for the full stuff we've got it first hand the biggest issues get a human voice face to face with the news makers. home.
