nicol stick to polypropylene fibers becomes a static electricity but the charge also splits oxygen molecules creating ozone using something called the corona discharge method the resulting rich oxygen environment is toxic to all the little bacteria viruses and fun guy which means this filter does more than simply get rid of simple dust and dirt given that it can be a matter of life and death at hospitals to make sure that all the particles in harmful . don't come out here in their testing lab you can see that the air flowing out of the filter is free from all those that were there as it entered so whether it be in coffee shops or operating rooms technology make sure that the air we breathe is as clean as possible. in those of years academic cluster you're never much more than a short walk away from the deep siberian forest along the way you can run into all kinds of people scientists engineers and even some fit with the latest military

hardware. but don't worry these aren't real gunmen they're just dress the part to show off the latest thermal weapons sight developed at the institute of sydney conductor physics here in novosibirsk. now we'll try to locate the three fighters with sniper rifles who have hidden themselves. there somewhere here in this forest somewhere in. ordinary come a flash as you can see we can spot any of them with just the naked eye. i'm trying to find the hidden goldman you. can monitor the process at the same time on the screen. there's one. behind a tree. with a forest in the background to be hard to spot him even if the visibility were normal.

on the other side of a small man and. i can just see the edge of his face and hood. the third one. is in an abandoned construction site in the corner of a dark room with a metal grating. so we found all three fighters it's hard to hide from a thermal. in terms of image processing i believe we are the leaders. we use a powerful processor that we've developed. it's based on very promising technology . computing. it gives us a very large optical band with nearly two times more energy efficient. it can run for four hours with only four double a batteries consuming three watts of energy. now spotting this potential bad guys with such easy work

because of the powerful image processor within the site despite its low energy demands it still produces image quality that second to no other non cool thermal sight computing power is packed onto a series of circuit boards assembled by the skilled team the engineers know it may look like a never ending maze of copper silicon and plastic you or me but to those that built it it's a thing of computing elegance. trying to obtain as much functionality as we could while keeping it all as small as possible good more than we have a microprocessor capable of running at a frequency of five hundred. programmable logic is comparable to a chip from a pentium or it has several dozen megabytes of memory and much more. in such a small package where there's no this isn't the limit of what we can do and we're already looking into how it can be made smaller and better. traditionally the best

thermal sites had to employ cryogenic cooling but that made them both bulkier and far more expensive but thanks to recent advances those from the institute of semiconductor physics can offer us the best of both worlds. we figured out. how to distribute power in terms of the range. averaging it out along the whole spectrum. in such a way that the signal coming from long distances is the same as from short distances. the prize for these cool thermal sites with micro ball or metric matrices is falling drastically. we expect to be able to put such cameras in mobile phones in fifteen years in affordable mobile phones of course. in terms of image quality. they're close to expensive system. so despite its small size and light weight these newest sights allow us to see things previously

impossible on such devices whether we're looking straight into the sun or trying to spot something on the waterfront that's no problem for soldiers equipped with these sights designed and manufactured right here in siberia but if time is the only thing you need to kill there's one company that makes waiting for you less than punctual for a little more enjoyable. entertainment russian game designers and artists are hard at work to distract you from yours the games may seem simple compared to blockbusters like quake and modern warfare work required for these casual games is often overlooked a dedicated team has to collaborate together to take it from a national id to finished product and that's precisely what has assembled out here in novosibirsk as a result of their hard work they're by far the largest and most successful gaming company in eastern europe and based on what they've done lately they can clearly compete with the best that the west has to offer but they found that with accolades

and success come ever growing considerations. kind of financial resources that you work with at the beginning and what kind now. thousands one could spend something like ten thousand dollars or even less to make a game that's completely competitive. today to make a game that would be a hit in its own zone. and that's talking about casual games we don't speaking about major blockbusters in the hard cold gaming genre quarterly but one has to spend in excess of hundreds of thousands of dollars. and that's true for one of alan moore's biggest titles the treasures of montezuma has proved so comfy among casual gamers that it's already on its third iteration it's ranked as high as number two on the list i pad app store a list of most games with each new version in the montezuma series the developers have to give players

a reason to pony up the cash for the latest one and that's what seems to drive the increasing costs as you can see it takes far more than a few clicks of the mouse to make an idea for a new game come to life and that's something that makes our success even more satisfying for these developers. actually just this last december we released our first game on the windows phone seven platform scold from frenzy to watching it was a pleasure to see that the game immediately shot to the top of the us marketplace it was the fifth most popular on that lists unfortunately i'm not ready to brag about any specific figures in terms of downloads because it's a new plant from and there's not yet enough information as to how much for example fourth plane sealed in a day week month regardless the fact itself of being in the top list is rather nice . now maybe it's because many of us yearn for a simpler life on the farm but whatever the reason farming games like this proved

to be a big success but nowadays it's not enough to release a game on just one platform you have to cover them all to have a chance at a hit. where planning to develop and trade more and more new titles and put them out on more and more new platforms not only for p.c.'s but also from macs possibly sony playstation three up. the larger the bespectacled ians the most possibilities on the coasts are not as high as they used to be. so with companies like al or round it's safe to say that sites like this are only going to become more common but it's no longer just teenagers and twenty somethings from middle age to retirees nearly everyone is getting in on the casual game bandwagon despite all the fun games are mobile devices now offer us it's important to put them down every once in a while and see the real world around us but in ways that will do for this edition

of technology we'll see you next time and enjoy the ride.

move. to. get are sometimes you see a story and it seems so for you think you understand it and then you glimpse something else and you hear or see some other part of it and realize that everything you thought you knew you don't know i'm sorry welcome to the big picture

. this week's top stories he went on t.v. the league the beleaguered mission the arab nation all that said his work in syria the fourth but not said behind it of course that could make things what. holds between iran and the new case structures human need international attention turned on its considering stopping fuel supplies to be here within days of the response to sanctions. also u.s. anti corporate crash out of the field reports also the word oakland again this is resulting to take down somewhat of a grenade to the demonstrators and the restaurant trade. multinational proposals to stop web piracy sparked mass protests in poland actually it say their government is

supporting internet censorship. but. hello welcome to our cities and weekly review i mean our thanks for joining as far as the arab league's observer mission in syria has halted its work so i think concern over a rise in violence with over one hundred killed in the last few days and clashes still underway russia has criticized the decision to air and water it's described as a useful initiative sarfraz has the latest from damascus. a sense really from moscow that this decision to hold the mission was going to inflame an already very volatile situation and unfortunately as seems to be exactly what we've seen happening here now foreign minister sergei lavrov was speaking today on his tour of

the asia pacific countries and he said that he didn't understand why such a useful tool had been treated in this way we've seen the observer mission start and eventually grounds to hold they never really recovered after that decision last week for the goal stays when they withdrew their monitors now their decision they said was because they felt the mission had failed to hold the syrian government to its pledge to end the violence and it was a surprising decision that's how the foreign minister described it because at exactly the same time that the gulf states made that decision the decision would also be made to extend the mission so just out of a very very crucial time with the situation in the country rather than making this mission stronger rather than trying to make it more effective if you have the gold states with touring them on it is now he said that that aroused questions we saw the meeting coming up on tuesday where the as the gaze of three presenting. findings essentially briefing the u.n.

and most is maimed remains very very adamant that is not going to back any plan that's going to leave the door open to foreign military intervention in fact again their response to western cool's now that has said that it's impossible to hold dialogue with the regime here the foreign minister called very irresponsible and indeed unforgivable as i think there's a real sense that this arab league with the want to put unity ready to piss you the resolution to dialogue and to try and calm is extremely volatile situation it's shocking really to see how much the situation is escalating day by day when a you've really seen this conflict creeping towards the capital people in damascus who weighed. up to the sound of gunfire from the suburbs this arab league mission essentially has turned out to be a down squid and there's a lot of people here saying what was the point in having them here in the first place if they were going to be made strengthened if they were going to try wait where was dialogue and if all roads essentially were going to lead to un action

anyway. even learned man believes it's not a coincidence that the arab league froze its mission just as western powers are because for foreign involvement. well my goodness it sounds like a no fly zone a different way which it was an open sesame to direct intervention meaning the war the observers who were sick into syria they get the wrong man to lead the mission the sudanese general on the base i think is their man in charge who will deliver the goods against the side believing him for everything going or i'm cool what a general do these terrorists are is cooperating it's exactly the opposite of what the last one they wanted a precarious step up whatever they have in mind which is some kind of do the best solution is the worst syria's civil it's already here is

a legitimate opposition in syria and syria is you know sorry to hear you stick a recorder in there when the order that we get to go national balder apparently there are some credibility so the good of you are really all syrians. for america and britain and in the arab league to give to the enemy serious of clears and to have an arrogant resolution saying and all that would do would be everybody in two weeks well absolutely should in diplomatic way which told these people to go. and have syrians locked in a spiral of violence libby's not far behind coming up on our team on something all of the down perspective and talking about balls to put pressure to maybe after being forced to treat torture victims some to trade back probably interrogation. but before not sure i knew that says have started a three day mission to examine iran's atomic activities terrazas the talks with the

international atomic energy agency the faster more than three years will prove its nuclear program is purely peaceful the i.a.e.a. visit comes as tensions between iran and the west crisis. eval on monday e.u. nations adopted and the president had set of sanctions against islamic republic came to a complete infante on oil supplies from iran and are expected to come in force in july and director of the center for. michel chossudovsky says that what we're witnessing now is part of a big u.s. plan whole war against iran. i think what we are witnessing here is is a build up towards the military confrontation these sanctions. constitute in some regards the staging of all of a military agenda and i should mention that we have a massive deployment of u.s.

military hardware troops going into israel to be stationed that israel also going to cooperate. you know with naval forces in goals in the arabian sea. that in other words i think what we're going to states wants. including its allies is some kind of a green light which will give a human face the world will we are. and we're keeping a close eye on the ring in all a new clothes saw her on air and online had to on our website called the nor an hour or so then updates on the latest developments and arrived there we ask or to you think to answer talks with the u.n. inspectors will bring and so far the majority sixty five percent things the your eyes it's heading for war with iran regardless ninety percent of you don't see any way out thinking iran long give up its nuclear program twelve percent paying the u.n. a spector's will send will find that to iran it's telling the truth and the minority interest. received a visit as a new step towards

a solution of the crisis so what do you think had to r.t. dot com to cast your vote. if you are so cute by movement approach as has once again turned violent in oakland california police fired tear gas on some two thousand demonstrators several hundred were arrested as they're tempted to occupy a vacant convention center before storming into city hall aunties marina portnoy hospital. it began around saturday afternoon when roughly two hundred fifty occupy occupy optimists in oakland california began demonstrating in the streets and it was hours past the crowd grew stronger and stronger up to roughly twenty two thousand people strong old timidly what the goal was for this demonstration is for

protesters to take over empty abandoned building where they wanted to create their new headquarters because as our viewers may remember crossed the country in the united states just a few months ago police departments are removed activists from their camps and this was an attempt for oakland optimistic to set up a new headquarters but as the crowd grew stronger and larger and thankfully the police in oakland began firing tear gas and flash grenades was the occupy atlanta this morning to the police they say members of the crowd began throwing things at times at the officers and that is what ultimately triggered this clash between police officers came to occupy an optimist but as you guys we know this is not the first time we've seen a fierce clash between officers and activists in oakland california got in october

there was a least three hundred people arrested and a former u.s. marine by the name scott olsen was left in critical condition with a head injury from being struck in the head by a police tear gas canister canister and this is something odd that put a lot of criticism on the police department in oakland california they've been criticized for being very harsh with occupy optimus. ansara flounders from the international action center tells all to display would be increasing violence and arrests the future of the occupy movement is still very point. it's very much achieving its goals in terms of waking up the youth in the us waking up working people in the us to the reality the reality that poor and working people are losing more and more and that the one percent actually one thousands of one percent is

gaining a normal new wealth so that they are very successful in drawing attention to that despite a shutdown by the media and by the police and that movement is very determined to continue and to find new tactics you're watching r.t. and of course we've got much more coming up for you later in the program like pre-election agitation grips russia so we take a look at how politicians are making a push for power on the internet. but before that president obama vowed to reform tax and fight poverty while hailing america's military during his annual state of the union speech much of the focus in this year's address was dedicated to the country's charnley economy and the pressing problem of inequality and voters by the occupy movement obama also praised on their classes abroad and their summation of asylum but not in the speech is regarded as a pre-election chance for valor to sell his campaign to the public and professor

paul child and food from california state university believes the address clearly demonstrates the policy priorities chosen by obama's administration. are used that you are. we're going to have an enduring relationship. which means we're going to have bases in the country and they're for it whether they want to serve. likewise he said we jail gadhafi syria's next day and if iran doesn't behave there the after that so. it is totally contradictory to say that he's going to be able to pay down the american debt in the extraneous government spending programs domestically with savings from bringing in soldiers older wars what in fact he has plans to expand while he didn't mention china played amy also said that we have a pacific strategy and the world will know that we are number one.

and that was a thinly veiled threat against china even i mean how insane can you be china's holding more than a trillion dollars of our debt we've got tens of thousands of factories there we're highly coordinated doing depended on them though and he's threatening them to. have been a t.v. and we compiled into a so a phone and the people protesting the on two web piracy poxy countries signed up to i don't with twenty one other european states they say be multinational deal which still needs to be ratified by the european parliament allows fans to censor the internet and it's here chess chemical south of boston. at first thousands across poland directed their anger squarely at the notorious anti counterfeit trade agreement the idea of funding. for publishing the. it's a trade mart. it's somehow illogical to me it's like punishing the corporation that produces knifes for. being used to kill somebody but with every passing rally the

protest grew more political the crowds put prime minister government under fire for signing the agreement on thursday most governmental websites were hijacked by the anonymous hacker group i think they were trying to maximize us with. the promise is that there would be a sudden closer touch to the documents. that we have. the right for our own interpretation of looking but that's not possible knows a lot from our government technically actors should be a good thing protecting intellectual property ranging from music to design your bags with the global online community fears corporations will use it to police the web and take regular users offline for harmless internet behavior it certainly has a striking resemblance to the much debated sopa bill in the united states which sent even online giants like google and wikipedia to take direct action but the law was only meant to work locally across the atlantic while act would be applied more

globally they are not. making racial groups and in some countries it needs to be ratified by parliament but not in every country so we have another. source open people faired but actor is still an option for many many countries it was too much for one french e.u. deputy he quit calling actor ash a raid then came the twitter twist the micro-blogging site saying it can now censor tweets country by country pride is active protests. in warsaw were expected to gather up to forty thousand people but a sudden big freeze kept many away nevertheless the intends to rally for several more weeks hoping to urge warsaw's ruling circles to take a step back do you want other e.u. member states along with poland signed actor but it's only here that the decision has caused so much control over sea and public dissent the document is yet to be

ratified by the country spahr limits which certainly leaves the possibility of more protests everywhere across the european continent let's. see reporting from poland . as you just had the micro blogging from twitter is another flat surface ships kind of all the time and go on that on our website at home including one suggestion that the room will ultimately backfire and tap. into twitter has said no make it very clear to their users your government is censoring you and i think that'll be a huge step in pressuring both people the show the stuff that was censored but also pressuring governments to change their policies so watch the full conversation over the internet celebrity campaign are in short time. also i. think that's most famous whistleblower is getting ready to reveal even more on t.v. today and sundry is launching his own talk show on our team all the details on our website.

this week addictions marked two years as the beginning of the country's are prizing with hundreds of thousands flooding to higher square the iconic birthplace of the revolution polls have opened for the upper house of parliament of weeks after islamist parties claimed an overwhelming majority in the lower house the new government is also tasked with developing the country's constitution egyptians today are demanding the dissolution of the military council which inherited absolute power from deposed president hosni mubarak who is in control egyptian also and filmmaker philip frist believes change will be held to a minimum. i don't see it as being that big of a shift i mean we lived under military rule for thirty years and that gave the government the authority.
