continuation of. hysteria this is me me b.s. is. almost all in meaning i would be right he she cared in. power because this is the second oh which we were. going through all her. explanation for european partners why. current theory why do. you always. hugh she. and. he is partly. russian agents or since i saw a good. spring up to date now on the big story in the u.k. making a lot of headlines where a former editor of the news of the world newspaper's been arrested today in connection with the phone hacking scandal at the country's biggest selling newspaper paper's former boy lead it has also been arrested on suspicion of bribing
1:10 pm
police scandals prompted the prime minister to announce two inquiries into the ethics and practices of the british press one hundred sixty eight year old papers accused of hacking into the phones of thousands. targets including murder and terror victims dead soldiers and politicians its own rupert murdoch's news international has announced the paper is set to close after this sunday's final edition despite the media analyst phil reeves who told us that although the scandal is a blow for the company it's strong enough to survive. i think something changed this week you know for decades british prime ministers have been on their knees to the to the murdoch press because they knew that when the sun which is his main daily newspaper here in britain when the sun supported a british politician running for prime ministership you know they won it and then you find in the next day you find that prime minister reading the signs and looking like an idiot saying well the sun got me elected i mean so you've got this demeaning of british democracy is this initiator of democracy really which the
1:11 pm
murdoch press was a part of but i think i learned there was a for silence as well because important people needed the murdoch press and they couldn't be they couldn't attack it because of that and i think a line was crossed. a very finely tuned business brain he has a lot of things going on now and one of them is to purchase the largest satellite network in britain called b. sky b. and that decision is about to be approved by the government that was in jeopardy i think he felt that as a businessman he had to sacrifice the news of the world because it in terms of the whole news international it's a tiny part of or back but i tell you the most important thing bill in my view is that the political class had been sucking up to rupert murdoch for so many years including prime minister david cameron he now has to stand back and say no i can't do it anymore it's going to bad. still all the way through this is the latest in a russia close series of reports of siberia and it's
1:12 pm
a venture that still changing lives today helping some people overcome with disabilities novus the to regain the confidence to stand tall good story coming up for you. know a big day for mass masses final shuttle. blasted off with up to a million spectators witnessing the historic launch is historic because it's the one hundred thirty fifth mission in the thirty year history of america's space program and its last experts have warned of a high chance of launch of be delayed by bad weather but in the end the astronauts left earth with just about a minute i thought is going to change you can report it was a poignant moment for those who devoted their lives to the pro time story of the sun and the empty shelves of what was once florida's thriving space coast. up to ten thousand people will be out of a job as soon as the last shuttle makes its final voyage back to earth home to many of the kennedy space center workers rock which is on the verge of becoming
1:13 pm
a ghost town without the space program or pretty much nothing i mean this is what you know cocoa beach was built on the space program you know just a lot of us are going to be out of jobs sorry me out people are going on welfare left and right feet stand in sydney chris a fully spent twenty three years with the shuttle launch team as an engineer with a plan kiss blasting out for its final mission it means the end of his career with nasa and the beginning of uncertainty a year ago he started looking for a new job to no avail i have applied for jobs and so far i haven't got any concrete responses there's not that many jobs out there for sure the u.s. scrapped of shuttle program and now wants the private sector to come up with ways to get astronauts to space several companies are working on new vehicles but it's not clear when they'll be able to deliver them one thing is certain though they'll be able to hire only a fraction of the skilled space industry workers will be out of work soon this is
1:14 pm
the first shuttle ever it never made it to space but it was used for tests before the columbia shuttle first launch into space in nineteen eighty one a total of five shuttles i've been used more space. mission says that two of them were last thing tragic accidents a nine hundred eighty six and in two thousand and three those lawsuits and the skyrocketing price for each launch gradually less to the cancellation of the program but critics say it's hard to estimate the losses that the end of the shuttle program will bring about both for the space industry and the people involved i think it's a really bad thing for the united states to lose this skilled workforce it's going to be difficult to rebuild it for years the shuttle has been the only vehicle that could very crew and a massive load of cargo to space officials say one of the reasons the program was scrapped is that it's safer and cheaper to send cargo and people separately something that russia for example has been doing for many years but whatever the
1:15 pm
reasons for scrapping the thirty year old program for those who devoted their lives to it is the end of their dream job kind of sad because i've already seen a lot of a few of my friends go in there being more people that probably never see again it also means the end of a once vibrant scientific community that's grown up around the shuttle. on our team. so there's a mixed feeling among those people involved in the thirty year program i spoke to professor william l. anderson he's from the university of maryland it told me things the end of the space shuttle program could that mean you'd be getting zero. it obviously is going to have an effect on the people who are losing their jobs and and on the local economy there in florida but the other side of it is it does free up resources to go other places the truth of the matter is that there are going to be some very talented people on the market looking for work i know it's tough for them but also
1:16 pm
these people have skills that could be transferred elsewhere and that's going to be a net plus that's going to take a few years down the road but that's a net plus as i see it we need to do is get the government get to be a rocker see out of the space program and let's see what the entrepreneurs can do but the problem is this the. economy is not a game and resources are it when you're taught when you talk about using resources in ways that maybe we shouldn't be there to be using and maybe they're too costly but i think it's some point national pride in it and to space program because you really should do it by the way i mean i've all be honest i have a lot more pride in apple and the things that they're doing now then i have in the space program. in turkmenistan a recovery efforts are underway after a series of explosions are now munition barefoot in the city of. nearby buildings authorities say the incident took place at a fireworks warehouse was caused by some heat according to local media reports have
