years deadly football stadium rides and fords paving the way for another wave of unrest in the troubled city. which obvious confidante his forte and as venezuela's interim president as world leaders pay their last respects to the laid charismatic leader at a state funeral. to look into how life began russian scientists find and identify the tyrian and one of them talked to go someplace lakes which may have been isolated for millions of years. is one pm of the russian capital you're watching r.t.i. marina joshie more violence is expected in egypt support site after record said the twenty one death sentences handed out over the football riots which killed so many

people last year will stay in place it's also been announced of five more people have been jailed for life and let's turn now to our correspondent who is in edge of for the very latest so bell what can you tell us about the court's latest decision . well a young portside activists wept their heads in their hands as the verdict in this contentious. stadium disaster trial was announced people i was sitting with knew some of the twenty one defendants who will be executed the judge said today they were shouting at the t.v. screens what about the police five people have been given life some police officers also will face jail sentences including the head of security the former head of security here. who's been given fifteen years however the feeling here is that portside is definitely being targeted i spoke to a leader of the ultras here the ultra hardcore football fans. who are very key to

this whole situation he said to me that the treatment of the portside people is similar to racism residents here feel like they are now in a separate country being targeted by the government and this verdict is proof of that so a lot of anger what's going to happen next is the culture is again these football fans will gather at the stadium where the massacre took place in february last year at twelve pm and stage mass protests they also plan a series of strikes on civil disobedience across the city in the coming weeks. well as we know the death verdicts imports say that were sparked in late january and the continuous for more than a month claimed about somebody's desk before so what kind of reaction do you expect to see now. i think right now we're going to probably have quite a lot of violence in the in the afternoon as people really express their anger at

this verdict as i said people are gathering at the stadium at twelve pm we're not sure entirely what their plan is but definitely protests will happen have been a number of funerals in the last week as these clashes these five days of clashes continue between police. and government protesters the police have vacated the streets number of them are actually striking they say that they're not being treated by the fairly by the ministry of interior the army are securing the area expecting further violence to develop as the day goes on when the moment right now people are reeling with shock from the verdict that tense extremely angry so how much security is there at the moment is there enough security and sing in the streets. what the government did after this these clashes happen that so at least seven people die is they they secure the area with the military who are literally standing behind me the security director that's been the focal point of

the violence in the last five days they also got rid of the security chief of. sayit and have basically paced because of the the city in the hands of the military we expect them to up security in the coming days particularly with this verdict that was announced today this morning and we know we have we wait to see what's going to happen here. right bill thanks very much indeed for bringing us the very latest on the situation there in correspondent bill true. to other stories now over thomas' delegated successor a nicolas maduro has taken the reins of power in venezuela until a presidential election is held next month thousands gathered for a job as a state funeral at the military academy in caracas is a felon from marty's video agency roughly was also there. his body will remain in

state for an extended seven days because of the shit amounts of people people from the barrios the poorest neighborhoods in the cities the countryside and across the country who want to see him for the very last time today is the first official day for the ceremony of the funeral of chavez west fifty five heads of state from around the world are attending the ceremony the cuban leader raul castro showed up last night the brazilian neither do my rousseff is here the former brazilian president lula da silva is a russian delegation and also the iranian president mahmoud ahmadinejad is here he has said that to vez is a martyr who lost his life serving the venezuelan people and preserving human and revolutionary values now of course chavez and i didn't add well very close allies and really that relationship was an example of how chavez used the power of this country which is not to be based on its very large oil reserves to extend solidarity to countries that are targets of saber rattling economic interventions

and threats of military aggression by the united states and i the western powers now there's also very much a sense of anger amongst many people here at suggestions by some senior western political figures and media figures that somehow chavez's death is a cause to celebrate that somehow it's a good thing for the venezuelan people and for the world of course the grief very much continues amongst the people here in caracas who have come to see him actions held in approximately thirty days time now of course the outcome of that election is very much unknown but at least amongst the people here that very much determined that maduro must replace chavez with one of the most popular tongues have been with chavez the people say lizzie feelin for r.c. got access. now the opposition in venezuela has boycott of the swearing in ceremony for a nicolas maduro calling a fraud but lead america expert steve eldar says they still fall short of gaining

the people's trust the opposition and understands that it will not win elections just on the base of the middle class the opposition has made it difficult to appeal to the poor people and the campaign for the presidential elections in october last year the opposition candidate. in the company. wade into the bottle you spoke to the poor people and that was the main thrust of his campaign there is a great amount of distrust among the poor people if copy of no matter what the people he says pretty much that the social programs that were so popular and were so politically successful. will be abandoned if the opposition return returns to power the key to all this is that there will not have any trouble with the upcoming presidential elections he is closely associated with chavez you

know one child was left venezuela to go to cuba he called on venezuelans and his people in particular to vote for him to support a majority into elected president if the situation came to that now there will be no a burial for tavis he is a body is to go on permanent public display and he's now he looks at the tradition of turning late leaders into lasting symbols. many controversal figures live on after their deaths through legacy but for a handful that's not enough for those they leave behind lines still form on red square here in moscow at lennon's muslim where the former soviet leader has lived in bomb since the twenty's there are still movements and debates today pushing for the tomb to be dismantled and lenin laid to rest stalin was also involved in actually laid next to london for eight years but the communist party congress decided to remove his body and bury him outside the kremlin walls there's

a clear communist trend here china of mao zedong is still on display in tiananmen square though he did sign a proposal that calls for all leaders to be cremated ten years before his own death he was embalmed though in one nine hundred seventy six min is on display in hanoi vietnam despite his wish to be cremated as well but latin america has had only one major figure involved and she is. there's quite a story surrounding her remains the argentinean first lady's body was meant to go on display much like a lenin when her husband was overthrown in a military coup in one nine hundred fifty five and fled the country a body disappeared while in one nine hundred seventy one it was revealed that the remains were in fact in milan in a crypt under a different name if it is a body it was assumed in flown to spain where her husband and his third wife kept the remains for a while apparently they kept the corpse in fact in the dining room on a platform then when one of her own came out of exile and returned to argentina he

became president for a third time and if it was finally returned and buried after his death in one nine hundred seventy four in buenos aires twenty two years in total from death to her final resting place. now the u.n. says it's prepared to take up detained group of twenty one peacekeepers from the syrian rebels later on saturday at ceasefire has reportedly been brokered between the militants and your own government forces in the area to allow the observers to be evacuated you want to social says they are now taking precautions to make sure that no more of the your staff are caught in the conflict. the united nations has been in contact with the syrian authorities to secure the release of the peacekeepers the arrangements were made with all the authorities involved for their release and. team was dispatched to their location but due to the late hour and the darkness they felt that it was not secure enough

and so they were not able to reach it but efforts will be made again to do that but the fighting in syria our peacekeepers are caught in the crossfire very concerned for them and we are doing everything we can to make sure that they are able to continue working and. conducting their mandate in a peaceful manner to move some of the peacekeepers from a post eight of them out of eighty eight in the area of separation into another area just to make sure that they could be secure. rebel group holding the peacekeepers has backtracked on earlier claims it took them hostage as human shields change of rhetoric team after the central rebel command stepped in and pressured them syrian journalist allen muhammad ali's radical factions will drag the country into chaos if the west succeeds in helping a regime change in a syria. nato countries would like us to believe that as a goal as this opening of the syrian people we employ and actually know as it goes

it will be this horrible chapter and crisis and this is something that we need to understand and the syrian people already understand who is working on the ground or the no command in the what they can control of their actions which is a very alarming sign but there's a really important thing here more because of the opposition coalition and the things of the order and demographics here you know he comes on here and he lies to the public just saying to their faces and say yes this is not like it's nothing more than just putting one hundred before going to his. post if you're when you go to the internet them and here's what the accuse them of supporting this is a person who supposedly he's a man i'm going to plan on you to see if you know people have. the world and you know legal countries would like him to be the want to present it to the syrian people. not to billion twitter posts are stored at the u.s.

library of congress every day it should be a treasure trove for researchers not that they can get their hands on it though we explain why in just a few minutes also. think a gated bus lines in the woods bus services kind of stimulus coming in and out of the waistband driving divisions israeli officials claim their new boss policy will make job traipse easier but passengers say it's blatant racism more that terrorists are. john kerry made his first major verbal gaffe as secretary of state by mixing the nonexistent country of courage to stand in one of his speeches of course it is funny when politicians misspeak george bush was pretty good at that but i can say that we all make mistakes when we speak trust me it is very easy to butcher the

pronunciation of someplace on earth like course to low voltage or walla walla washington the thing is that he didn't just misspeak his speech was written correctly and if you look at his eyes as he said it he wasn't really looking at notes or something he was reading it off of a teleprompter right now i'm reading off a teleprompter but i put every word there myself which is probably why john kerry is spelled with a q but my question is would kerry and prompter mr obama just read anything put in front of them to even really know the realities of the tiriel they're reading in their speeches if you're deeply versed on some subject then you should need to read word for word from the teleprompter to give a speech just try writing some notes and speaking with your brain and maybe your heart like in the good old days but that's just my opinion.

welcome back you're watching are the live from moscow in a hidden far below ground there could be traces of live in our planet's most harsh environment at least that's what russian scientists believe they have found in antarctica after digging deep into the subglacial lake vostok or does raise a national look into what they have discovered more than three and health billion here is off to life first appeared on earth may trees still spring in surprises on

those who have spent their lives studying it on thursday russian researchers say they've discovered d.n.a. traces of previously unknown bacteria in the waters of the subglacial lake vostok the bacteria they think they found does not belong to any existent class it's one of the only living things on earth that's managed to survive in such harsh conditions low temperatures no light enormous pressure and a high concentration of oxygen with little nutrients plus talk is a unique and isolated body of water which sits beneath almost full kilometers of ice and is the largest of antarctica as nearly four hundred known subglacial lakes it's named after russia's only station on the frozen continent in february two thousand and twelve russian researchers became the first in the world to reach the lake after more than two decades of drilling through ice they finally managed to read up forty liters of water that had remained untouched for more than twenty million years to avoid contaminating the lake special technology was developed in

st petersburg which meant the trail automatically we drew as soon as it struck water the discovery of russian scientists could provide an incredible insight into our planet's past. now take a look at some other stories from around the world and taliban suicide bomber has struck near the afghan of fans ministry building in kabul killing at least nine people police say the attacker was riding a bicycle and detonated his device near the main entrance of the building another suicide blast eight children and a police officer were killed at a checkpoint in the country's east deadly attacks coincided with a first visit to afghanistan by the new u.s. defense secretary chuck hagel. ratings agency fitch has downgraded italy's credit score by a notch to triple b. plus so the move is a result of the country's political uncertainty following the recent election as well as its rising debt february's vote produced no clear winner and no stable government is expected in the coming weeks. meanwhile in the heart

of italy the vatican's papal conclave will start the formal selection process to fill the vacant position on tuesday is the first time in six hundred years the cardinals have been convened to replace a pope who has died the two have been excused from the vote one for health reasons and the second half of the scottish catholic church resigned after admitting inappropriate sexual conduct towards priests. well there is a shadow of apartheid an israel palestinians commuting from the west bank are now urged to board special buses they were launched this week by the transport ministry after some jurist settlers feared their safety was at risk as well as the racist overtones policy reports on how the roots of the problem go deeper. on the first of december one nine hundred fifty five a black woman by the name of rosa parks made history by refusing to give up her

seat in the so-called colored six in of a crowded bus in montgomery alabama that incident became a formative event in the u.s. civil rights movement and again this week israelis and palestinians are remembering that incident as the transport ministry introduces secret gated bus lines in other words bus services only for kind of students coming in and out of the west bank the move has created emotional reaction both for and against it both inside and outside of israel the israeli transport ministry justifies it by saying that the move is an attempt to alleviate the distress of palestinian passengers having to travel for long hours in and out of israel but the truth is that behind the scenes there was a lot of noise being made by israeli settlers who refused to travel with palestinian passengers they say because they're afraid now newspaper editorials have had a field day with criticisms that israel is acting in line with apostate that this smacks of racism and it echoes of the policies back in the united states decades

ago the palestinian passengers on this bus said leaves a bad taste in their mouths but the irony is that it cuts they travel time as they no longer have to travel through the settlements the ticket is a lot cheaper and the whole travel journey is a lot less stressful side an age it's very hard to live with this you can call it a racist action or whatever but says it makes it even more impossible for both sides to understand one another. we're supposed to be working in a civilized country but this. i feel like israeli people look at as a second glance and not equal to the. little bit with that issue i feel very bad it is not acceptable at all but in the end the strong side decides what happens and we have to deal with this reality but the segregation here runs much deeper than just separate bus services we're talking about different legal systems for israelis and palestinians we're talking about different allocation of resources and preferential

treatment to name just a few. on the way from qalqilya now the chinese foreign minister says beijing is committed to cooperating with the u.s. in the asia pacific region again due to stress that washington needs to respect china's interests and concerns hong kong city university professor joseph chang says that while regional tenderness on the rise all sides will try to avoid open conflict. china still valueless very good relationship with the united states because it understands that this still needs a lot of time he needs a peaceful international and vironment to concentrate on this modernization and he will continue to work to avoid serious conflicts with the united states but since the twenty eighth ten chinese leaders are increasingly increasingly worried about american who are all from and even the territorial disputes in the asia pacific region name need to do you tie island is filled with

a pan and the time the dispute of the countries and china is concerned that he return to asia strategy on the part of the obama administration coincides very well with the hedging strategy on the part of these asian countries i think wow there will be a lot of postering there will be considerable escalation of tension but all countries concerned do not want a military conflict and they will carefully to avoid incidents of military conflicts but. certainly your continued to enhance tension concerning the military concerning the territorial disputes. journalism in post arab spring libya feels the force of uncontrolled armed militias tripoli doesn't storm the t.v. station through its office windows and kidnap its staff as report online.

also there and knew had for the operators of the disastrous for your power plant involving hundreds of tonnes of ground water leaking into the damaged reactor building every day. twitter is one of the fastest ways to share your thoughts on line and could prove a huge resource for future generations to study science agreed for the massive archive of micro blogs to be stored at the u.s. library of congress for research purposes but it's two years on and it's still inaccessible as liz walls been finding out. it's part of the social media landscape that has revolutionized the way we communicate. twitter allows users to broadcast their thoughts one hundred forty characters at a time. from the very first tweet to declaring historic presidential victories to the downright dumb all of it has been stored at the library of congress what the

popularity of smart phones and i pads users can tweet pretty much anywhere at any time and the library of congress is taking note of the way people are communicating and expressing themselves along with journals and other publications social media is being stored as a part of history it began in two thousand and ten when twitter agreed to hand over to the library every tweet since the social media site launched and the tweets keep being stored with an estimated half a billion tweets per day it's a massive undertaking basically taking this body of information about the culture of this country and putting it into some kind of storage well we're talking about one hundred fifty. well now that the library has collected this massive archive it's not clear what they're going to do with it how do you search that how do you how do you how do you catalog that and split it into searchable pieces of content and they haven't been able to figure that out yet. the libraries blog says quote

although the library has been building and stabilizing the archive and has not yet offered researchers access we have nevertheless received approximately four hundred inquiries from researchers all over the world so far the library tells us the goal is for researchers to have access to the database not the general public and we asked are there any limits to what information the library can distribute the library tells us they've set a few no tweets newer than six months old will be handed over to researchers and the tweets can. be used for commercial purposes and researchers can make a big chunk of tweets available for downloading on their website still questions remain if you delete a tweet does the library still store it and how easily can law enforcement obtain your tweets if people are worried about privacy i'm pretty sure the n.s.a. and homeland security has already coped through a lot of that stuff so perhaps the takeaway as think before you tweet us because

it's going to be stored right here at the library of congress and washington liz wall r.t. . at the margins on the way in just a few minutes with another hard hitting breaking news. to some people extreme cold isn't a chilling threat to life for women of the if it's a cooling if you look you can see that the water and the rates and my body feels really warm now this is good for you. they plunge into icy water to make themselves stronger you can't get used to the cold it will but you can tolerate it and you can struggle with. people of snow and ice victims or frost. surviving the cold i don't see.

more news today violence is once again flared up. these are the images the world has been seeing from the streets of canada. giant corporations are old today. to live on one hundred thirty three bucks a month for food i should try it because you know how fabulous bad luck i don't get any i mean. i know that i'm sitting seems really messed up. and we're all really so personally apologize it's. a little worse you're going to go lie down to the. radio guy and four minutes from the click. i want to watch what we're

about to give you never seen anything like this i'm telling. you. what's going on guys i'm abby martin and this is breaking this set well if you flown at all since nine eleven and you probably know that the airport experience is essentially hell on earth first it was our shoes then it was the liquids hell even bands snow globes after twelve years of harassment and dehumanizing screening methods all to protect us from the big bad terrorists guess what now we're being told that we can start bringing home the plane that's right starting april twenty fifth of this year will be allowed to carry the naives you see here in addition to clubs and bats i guess they just realize that with these items banned were no safer than we were before don't even

get me started on the radioactive naked body scanners that presented us with more danger than safety in two thousand and ten scientists determined that airport scanners are just as likely to kill you via cancer as a terrorist blowing up your plane. but perhaps it's even more absurd than this is another recent t.s.a. announcement that has come out in the wake of the sequestration despite concerns that imminent budget cuts will result in the furloughs firm floyds agency officials just signed on a contract for fish. million dollars worth of new uniforms yep fifty million dollars has billions in federal cuts threaten to affect thousands of employee jobs so what's the moral of the story here well it's no new tale the t.s.a. is a completely useless agency with that eighty million dollar annual budget created to protect us from a menu factored through it along with the department of homeland security both of these bloated ineffective agencies have their priorities out of the.
