as hot as snow here i must say this is all seen the senate and us republican party says the gay stations are close to reaching an agreement on the debt experts day this could be just another round of political pingpong on capitol hill. potence admitted responsibility for the plane crash that killed president kaczynski last jab at the public record still tries to shift some of the blame to brush up on our two hundred fifty pounds of bounty company i was asked is how

a lot of the streets and squares of israeli cities some hear an echo of the arab spring in the chants calling on prime minister netanyahu to step down. next legendary a queen a rock guitarist and songwriter brian may talking to sophie shevardnadze he speaks on walking alongside from in freddie mercury and reveals his alter ego is. it's great to have you with us today thank you simply so recently i was going through the glass of passage and he writes about music and what he says about music is that except it's artful it's also true power over relations and so and then many

people say that exactly why music is compared to exact sciences like math. so i never really got there because i finished around a conservatory and i always failed my math class now you as a man of music and science can tell me how music is related with science or exact science like math for example so hard question. yeah obviously there are mathematical things in music but ironically i think the most important things in music are the instinctive things so i don't equate how that works out except maybe gives you a balance but yes i love pure science and i love you or music and they're not the same i'm sure but. certainly throughout history there has been connections and people who want to who are immersed in both of them you know from but you know it would have been seen through. to patrick more. because it seems to be that we maybe it's an obstruction thing maybe people who like these things don't like the clutter

of the world like the complications of the world that we live in you know the pieces of stuff they just like to find the essence of life so maybe pure science is in some way close to the essence of nature and music is close to the pure essence of human beings at this point do you see yourself as a man of science or a man of music. claims on the during the hour. do you believe in god because i'm. called richard dawkins there who is a very strong atheist probably had a little kind of argument with him in the hundred minutes because he he kind of i think he thought that he proved there was no good and my feeling is that's not a very scientific attitude because if you if you make a pronouncement you have to evidence or if you say there is no good where is the evidence there is no god you can say i don't know you know being an agnostic for me is a scientific point of view which is supportable but you know he's a very clever man he has a different point of view to me but in my experience i have felt at times that

there is a god of some kind i don't subscribe to any religion organized religion i said different matter but if your question is about people there's a god but if there is a god we have very little idea of what god might be that's inherent in what we are we have very little understanding of. do you think we're alone out there. it's only your opinion i have a strange feeling that maybe we are alone i don't know why this is you know but you know you've spoken about the loneliness that you experience after each performance . and so i know because i've spoken to a couple of astronauts and been to the moon for the past few days and they also speak of that vast loneliness to experience when they're out there in space. stays in music in your opinion give you that comfort of loneliness. oh yeah maybe they do for a moment you know maybe but ironically and maybe that's what makes you more aware

of the loneliness because you clips this concert for instance wonderful togetherness we see people who are with the universe and then the reality is you lose it so maybe that's why i mean that's why we feel lonely i think for a lot of them in this what is it a comforting feeling you know. it's not comforting but music when you're in it for the moment and science when you're in it for the moment it is all encompassing so yeah you don't have time to think how it's going to ask that earlier in your life you know it's the band and. explore exploration for celebration was it sex drugs and rock n roll what was it for fame money it was never for find or don't particularly enjoy it was never for money because i was always happy with what i have even if we only had fish fingers. it's just because it was the support was exciting it was unknown it was a door that you thought you could walk through but then thirty years on you want

back to finish your ph to that huge drop out problem like you do you know it was unfinished business. it's like you have a circle someplace in the circle just doesn't quite. michael brecker class accomplished but it didn't have to do anything with kind of kills towards your parents because you dropped out earlier on in life and maybe they're a little disappointed in you because you went off to rock and roll and you know there was a moment you know your stuff. yeah right i was very against it in the beginning because he. i think he saw in my education and the place i'd go to the place that he would have liked to have brought in and he never got his degree so it always held him back in his life so he saw me with his friend trusting degree in. science and the whole world opening up to me and it looked like i was walking away from it and he found that just important. so yeah he was very upset and we want him to all

over. the world and. various things happen for eventually he came to see him or. he said to me. i understand where they're from. and the funny thing was you know he was very against the time i was doing so you know for queen he was drawing little maps and charts of how the record sales were doing and you know he was following with great detail what i was doing so he was always kind of into it he just didn't want to. say that to me but i can't one obviously when you think queen and see you playing next to freddie mercury all those great hits come to my mind and then i understand that when you reach that level of success with someone you definitely special law and you form a special bond and i've heard you in another interview say that you still see freddie in a strange way can you elaborate on that it's like a family member you lose them but you don't quite interesting because you try to

review them. and we were so wrong forget it. you get that closeness with somebody particularly in a creative environment other than framers or think it was. or you can success but in a creative environment you learn to know what somebody else might be thinking you might not always be right but you have a feeling for it and so i still feel it and roger does as well in a particular it applies more if we're working as queen in this and we think we're pretty story and he would be he would say this. yes he's part of the creative process because he's part of what we are because we really chiseled this thing out all together and me and jordan pretty and roger so you know i mean for a while i didn't want to you know i was very. it was a point you know the grieving process where i just didn't want to talk about we didn't want to feel that it was there even except as history. sort of got through

that and now i regard it there's a part of my life which will never go away and it shouldn't go away because it's so big part of what i worked to create a question what do you think happens after death after death you know the big questions in there. i don't know. i'm inclined to think that our view of the universe is very simplified and you know in a way that people crawling over a piece of paper has it has a very limited view of the universe so i think we also have a limiting medium so this existence that we know maybe just a very small part of the whole picture you know and i'm excited to think that maybe so. i'm not counting on it because maybe maybe in the your life that's it i don't know. you know one thing you certain you can't use it as an excuse to say ok you know this life is really bad but the next one is going to be ok you know you

have to make the best of when you are so i cannot ask you i know that you've been very successful and yet you you were on the verge of suicide what stops at that point your fear of death or love life. yeah i've had very bad depression which a lot of people deal with at certain points what stops you killing yourself. i think what struck me was the fact that i had children and people who depend on me and people who love me. and you just think it in a in a sense is a very selfish thing to give you so because you make so much mess you know you do terrible things to the people around you but i would have you know for my children . and maybe i would like to tell you that there was a glimmer of hope that there wasn't at that time now i remember driving and seeing the bridge and thinking i could do this and i just don't know it we might you know i have to somehow discover what what is going on and

yeah it would be a bad thing to do because of the people around me and you come out more empowered after that once and actually. i think if you do certain kinds of work you come out more empowered yeah and i think i did kind of check my life and checked myself into a depression clinic which was actually the best thing i ever did because it was amused it's like restarting your car you know and i had to ditch my preconceptions and that work definitely gave me a new. a new energy and was an instant but it gave me the tools to deal with life in a slightly different way i think you have to get to the point where you throw everything away. because that's the only way you can make a new start and i realized that if i did not deal with the depression i was no use to anybody so it's the same kind of logic is not killing yourself you know. killing yourself is really bad for everybody around you but was it staying in depression is

very bad for everyone around you so it's not you struggling and trying to keep doing what you've been doing the whole time because it's it's going to be the same thing you know you have to somehow get outside. and trust that you can come guy thing. as a person who can deal with things if. you've got all the money you want educated men you love staring at stars would you consider maybe flying as a space tourist you know i don't like being a tourist it's funny that you say that you know if i was flying in there was some reason for it into space i think i would enjoy it more it's like being here. i keep busy in my life and it's quite hard for me to take a week off just to come to generate although i'd love to know that but there was an excuse to come you know i had worked through i had things which you. and i think that's made me and joy the sunshine and the beach more the fact that i'm sort of parts of the life of the sign and i love the sun and anyway and it's because of the really it's not because of being

a tourist so you know if there was some reason to go into space if i thought it would. stop people torturing animals i would do it. but i would enjoy it and you spoken to some of the brilliant brains our times for the past three days what do you think what you think could be or is high priest of the twenty first century the high priest of the twenty first boy oh boy a boy. maybe nelson mandela. because he has a very important theme i think apart from wisdom and moments. he has the key of forgiveness which i think saved his country completely from a blood. and i think people the people who run these planets studied under know some and we would definitely get a better planet and i think that would be more than anyone else i think he has the

key i mean thank you very much for this interview him.

twenty years ago largest country. is. one of the. challengers. where did it take. the senate leader of the us republican party says negotiations are close to reaching an agreement on the debt die number but experts fear this could be just another round of political pingpong on capitol hill. conan's admission responsibility for the plane crash that killed president kaczynski last jan but the published report still tries to shift songs off the bench for. another one hundred fifty channels and antigovernment protests as the flood of the streets and squares of his waiting still seems some here in echo of the arab spring in the chants calling on prime minister netanyahu to step down. from power newsperson

a phone in just around fifteen minutes time but before those calls over the sports task of katie's got all the latest particularly on the gary and grand prix and it was a very memorable day for one. of the. hello welcome to the sports update this sunday and these other top stories. today on isn't it narrowed the gap to leaders discounts of who are going to be struggling start acknowledging the mail on time. no problem but the challenge jenson button claims his second victory of the season in his two hundred. percent raising contest in the gary graham great. dancing backstreet of williams which is how it goes on in a very exciting time a new life threatening injury. with what person champions

a need to bridge the gaps just four points to russian premier league leaders to discuss moscow after china as well as his men on going to see a one though went home to second bottom spot on l.j. but so far as england paired up with alexander close you cough midway through that that's all ahead be a week old again this gullibly looking to restore all of that seven point push of the top level when they go to class and then later this sunday night informed i'm also helped just kicked off against all the other stuff while the other one sees in the late game. columns offering twice former champions are being suffered a shock three nil the fate of those in brazil are going for about the cost michigan injuries first soon after the break would be guilty but said go as you go through drops the ball and hotch give it uses off and then we went through the second half exam but i think in this first top goal enormous three years and things went from bad to worse for being after hundred when i wanted a stoppage time and nothing about the season did have to retake the spot kick but

stuart nonetheless and you know turn jamie. so rubinstein down to fifteen standards as far as that must make two points further back following a disappointing one one draw against them on the scene a try or a penalty put the visitors ahead just before half time. i don't well it's a plane to the equalizer just after the break. while in the early part that one one that tom hanks made go longer and so on that off the simple tap in that winning on the road in siberia. coach to the guys says he expects his side to reach the twenty fourteen world cup finals in brazil but that's when i was in confident now despite involving the same qualifying group as portugal the draw was made at a ceremony in rio de janiero the legend rappelling was there as an ambassador for the world are another brazil hero now though russia out of the house are long. in group path. so let's take a closer look at that group also there are israel northern ireland as

a guy john luxemburg i mean you can nine group winners qualify automatically for the second place teams will have to enter a playoff the first matches would fade into the office next year of the euro twenty twelve and the fifty three european teams were divided into nine groups and reigning world champion spain were drawn in group i along with former winners france france belarus georgia but finland. with friends. while last summer's losing finalists the netherlands of one of the toughest groups bearing group d. along with turkey from hungary romania is stunned here and i'm sure. our england have a slightly easier task they join montenegro ukraine poland moldova and some arena in group h. by then at the england manager fabio capello says it's still tough. to get these in because we don't really have wanted a group or a new player because if you do if you leave for. work up when you try

to prepare. we will. know it. when. we are going to europe. we would have been more global but that was an area where we believe good. faith apparently a little messy didn't take to the pitch but a record crowd still gathered to watch not united exact revenge on an on the strength sponsor on the side in a pre-season friendly in washington they say about eighty thousand fans catch the washington redskins stadium where midway through the first half i saw danny welbeck the big man a. prosecutor vick valdas out the halftime entertainment was provided by n.b.a. superstar kobe bryant with a different kind of penalty shot the sortie she staged unlike in the champions league final triumph over united in make passage but guardiola feel that most youngsters and it's teenager tiago inclines the twenty minutes to go however united

manager sir alex ferguson took no chances relying on his heavyweights michael and graham to the winner six minutes later to one of the english champions winning all five of their north american match is a good argument for ferguson ahead as the new season of. how to move things made a worker changes and has the right to use our. importance of those overdoing it. for me that i'm sure that will fit. i'm sure a good squad. i was some good young players coming through. so that all courses in terms of discord people to deal with the winds of the english game and european of course. we're going to formula one and mclaren's jenson button has trained his second win of the season in his two hundredth career race i just really hungering grand prix which was won and lost on tire strategy but change tires this third that

stop before the rain fell and passed teammate lewis hamilton to take the lead and we're at the same track where he claimed his first big victory six years ago ruggles championship leader sebastian vettel who started on pole was second explorers amanda along those third hamilton had a six pit stops including a drive through penalty that still passed mark webber is red bull to finish fourth bentyl malise the championship by eighty three points from webber hamilton is third eight eight points adrift of the long so forth button fierce. moving on and it was a highly anticipated bout in mixed martial arts rushes. that suffered his third defeat in a row after losing to forty year old american dan henderson in illinois the pair were fighting in the strike force everyone to local heavyweight contest but the last and grow up was beaten by a technical knockout after just four minutes that was the russian's third defeat in a row having previously gone on the twenty eighth vita spanning a decade and this result now see the thirty four year old retired from the sport.

and is now former women's world number one serena williams produced a straight set demolition of sabine lisicki to reach the final at the bank of the west classic in her first final since coming back after a life threatening injury a year long lay offs or have plummeted to one hundred sixty nine in the rankings but she's now playing like the serener of old eating the german six one six two in california after thrashing maria sharapova in the quarterfinals serena won eighty two percent of her first set point against the sixty and waiting in the final is frenchwoman marion bartoli who defeated slovakia's dominique it's a goalkeeper. and finally one of the world's highest paid ice hockey stars you have getting arkin is celebrating his twenty fifth birthday this sunday here in the russian capital while recovering after a serious knee injury and concerns him but up north went to congratulate him and wish him a speedy recovery. you game out that stanley cup winner in the russian household

name is now going from one of the longest and toughest he reads in his life then h.l. starr nicknamed geno some pretty serious knee injury after a collision with a defenseman in january and was sidelined for the rest of the season. it was really hard for me as it's the first time i've been in such a situation you can't get away without injuries in hockey you just have to put up a hill and don't let it play on your mind was so it was more of a mental challenge for me however the surgery went well and this my stuff or he was able to train with his strength and conditioning coach in moscow and in a month and a half he will start training camp with his team that is more thing with thought. right there what you call today yeah nice stuff like. a matter of. fact he's going to have a percent by the time ever since he was around the first year training camp so he's

going to get the hell out of my workout. you are up by some. training. mile can develop through the system and trust him powerhouse without when you thought and dare you to feel the team in two thousand and three when he was just seventeen the following year he was drafted second overall by his work behind his national team mate alexander. but due to disputable where contract with neteller gina was forced to stay for another year however his dream of playing in the n.h.l. came true in two thousand and six when he finally swapped the russian still c.t. for the american one to keep the ice alongside then up and coming canadian sydney crosby and it seems like the wind is wide enough to hold both hockey giants. and we hear there's been a surprise me was injured last season too and we spent a lot of time together while we were recovering we supported and cheered on our team. when we could we keep in touch and i know that his recovery is going well too

and he's training on the ice already he's a nice guy and a big star who's already won almost all the trophies in hockey and he has no superiority complex molecule has been adding two of his to his cabinet every year but there are still no olympic medals in his collection and undoubtedly it's one of his career it is for the near future. in jordan we haven't won a lot with the national side for me it's a great honor to play for my country all the greats like mario lemieux and wayne gretzky one olympic gold crosby's already grabbed gold too so i'm determined to win the olympics and not only insulting one medal is never enough. despite my own kinsmen honors the stop where remains a straightforward almost reserved person while still greedy for victories on the ice at the age of twenty five the career of the penguins forward is just starting and speak to you as both in north america and in russia should enjoy his skills for many years to come. his name but out of.

that's all those muscles i for. one great for the full stop we've got it first the biggest issues get a human voice face to face with the news makers.

her. it was so.
