competitions most notably taking gold at last month's european championships in croatia but this continental triumph is still some away from the global dominance enjoyed by soviet and russian skaters over the past fifty years and with the rise of canadian pair to subvert you have got more as well as u.s. stars meryl davis and charlie white the two were felt the need to reinvent themselves to challenge the north american stranglehold and recruited the help of former world by stance champion alexander julian who coached atlanta nafta and among them are of two russia's last olympic gold in turin in two thousand and six was the notion that it wasn't easy changing coaches as we've been with our previous one for twelve years but when everyone kept saying we were becoming too repetitive and using old school techniques when you had to do something about it this is why i would turn to alexander that was proven time and again that his approach and techniques are exciting new and different. now while change is good i got three of

them dimitri really do have their work cut out for them as trainer alexander civilians work ethic that sounds extremely demanding especially seeing as he would like to see them in the top three of the world very soon and that of course is easier said than done virtue and more are currently world and olympic champions with former world champions davis and whites running them a close second over the past three years which is a dominance that coach mitts is a daunting task to break. so the. muscles on the judging by their form last season under the beginning of this one it was simply impossible to compete with them can see the improvements being made by the russians to me treat on your katrina as well as others and the competition is getting tighter of course those two couples to cough over the past few years but i'm loving the challenge and i hope it continues isn't this going to be in the distance but while julian in the midst of this still a way to go for this do over a boy insular view of believes they can already mount

a challenge for the world's top honors it's completely possible it's not some kind of fantasy there's no such thing as impossible you just have to find the key to the door that opens up these possibilities and while a lot of time and effort goes into prey ssion and particularly under the watchful gaze of coach julien the two insist they still find the time to relax and have fun . yes they are so even if we only have practiced i think would go mad our schedule does our us free time to spend with friends going to the cinema even do not the sports like volunteer at our skiing and of course with family it's also the theatre various kinds of shows friends cars that set or anything really will do any kind of pastime it also focus on our goals it's this kind of spirit that's kept twenty three year old soul of your and twenty two year old brother skating together for the last twelve years and with the help of coach julien this every chance they could cause an upset at this year's world championships in virtue and more is

native canada starting from march eleventh mike of genco moscow. all solvable one join me for parts and just a couple of minutes. the month before the oscars and what annoys you with their predictions and the month after everyone complains about the results but it isn't being talked about much as the few hundred people who gathered to protest the glamour filled award show but why protest the asker's you ask well although the film life of pi won the oscar for best visual effects effects to you that made the movie look so amazing were the men hughes has filed for bankruptcy quickly after the film's release you know that seems like a bit of a discrepancy i mean the group that made the best visual effects in the world in

two thousand and thirteen is flat broke how can that be this reminds me of how the lead creators of call of duty modern warfare two were let go directly after the release of the game which to date is the eighth highest grossing video game of all time this was done supposedly to dodge paying them the royalties that they you know earned through hard work the problem is that we live in a world where only the bottom line count making as much profit as you possibly can damn the consequences it's just good business practice they say well it might be profitable but it's bad for society and it's very bad for visual effects and videogame artists but that's just my opinion. news today. these are the images the world.

can't. change for racial truth. well welcome back and russia has been celebrating women's day of the recent weekend however a group of pinball is flowers for guns i took part in an indoor competition and moscow. to dodge the bullets to bring up a story paint balling has come a long way since it was first played just over three decades ago with its

popularity growing not only among sports marksmanship enthusiastic but also among companies who use the corporate team building and problem solving it's highly addictive and it seems the girls cannot get enough of it. and they have the chance to show off their skills in the second edition of the ladies' painful tournament. they deal with this tournament appeared to last year when they first played european championship female championship in germany and. the tournaments gathered on the three teams and we decided to make a new management will gather more girls more teams and more conscious the eighth of march international women's day is one of the most popular holidays in russia. however despite the tournament taking place over this holiday weekend it didn't stop the girls from ditching their flowers in dresses and donning the camouflage instead we decided to make it in these days because we have three non working days so that's easier to organize such

a big event and then another patina to attract more attention and. not just show that girls are better than boys and can do the same things now just to attract attention to the girls making different things and showing themselves in different areas will paint ball may seem like a lot of fun and games and a lot of team building that goes with it but when you realize what kind of guns they used when they were out in the field when they shooting ten a home balls a second you realize there's no laughing matter. thank you i may consider myself a good shot but looking at some of the women battling it out in their arena i was glad i wasn't in the firing line the event attracted teams from far and wide with singapore australia the u.k. norway malaysia and iran all represented yeah yeah. yeah yeah. it's like ok because everywhere in the world they think iranian gas can not do

anything especially it's worse and now we're here you're doing us more than you're having fun although it was a fantastic experience for the competitors and also a great day out a number of those taking part saw it as an excellent learning curve we've always wanted to travel to people it was the perfect opportunity i mean guesting for the team it's a great experience and here hopes take everything that we learned back to australia we managed to dodge the bullets and didn't receive the king around until the end however it was a fantastic weekend of action for the girls who will certainly have a day to remember michael. moscow. now let's hear from the newsmakers themselves and football coach or somebody near was mike none of us in big tree after his real madrid side beat and managed tonight at old trafford to reach the champions league quarter finals following a free to aggregate win try to be honest and be honest is. is to say

that in my opinion. the best in last. let's. football. just a couple of weeks shy of turning thirty seven boxing champion bloody mckittrick or so is still too young to ponder retirement and ukrainian heavyweight announced he will next defend his free belts against the town in cancer survivor francesco who is twenty eight. of course i mean that just then there is this competition there are stops and as long as i'm healthy and motivated she will continue to do the job that i've been doing and what i've been doing for twenty two years for the past two and two years been beating up people for a living expletive cool job to be honest with you the formula one the moto g.p. seasons are about to get underway while the world supersport campaign is still in its infancy but there's already been some success for russia the british riders

some lows finished runner up in last month's curtain raiser as constantine part top of profiles his russian team mitch motorsports. sam a los made an almost perfect debbi of for his new team at the season's opening grand prix in australia two weeks ago the new year which more sports wider will position which would eventually have to settle for second place finishing just behind the reigning champion can answer in what proved to be an enthralling battle throughout the race and the twenty three year old aims to take his new side to a new levels were finished dat nation second. i pad this is the time. to. tell us that we have to change and about today i sat back sad to hear time about the uk much more sports team made an impressive start in the super sport serious last year where they're right over the middle on of earning to

put him finishes including one at his home circuit the must go race way while he would end the season in eleventh place in the overall standings apart. i did team before and well the previous season we had lots of ups and downs throughout the year there are many positive things that we can use during this campaign and hopefully this experience will help us improve results at the top of the russian team showed intentions to push on to even greater heights as they signed lows as a leader on us new team mate the englishman made the transition from a ruchita to race winner in twenty two well winning two stages and finishing third in the overall points table however he was eager to improve saying that signing with the young each team was a step forward but an attack that would have helped but that's a very good. again i guess except getting. to her. and i said it was here last. night like. this by the question the first

race of the season twenty six year old new on of stays positive and hopes can be titian within the team will. help improve results and try to earn and made in top of the podium finish for the russian side. i'm not afraid of competition blows is a great guy and i don't mind sharing a podium with him from time to time i had quite severe cuts hundred knee injury but i'll be fully ready to ride my bike at the upcoming grown prix next month and i'm ready to fight for a win the progress of the young team has been dramatic over the past few years and they certainly aren't running out of gas then bishes outfeed already has one eye on competing in the superbike as a green twenty four team and a successful season in the super sport serious will certainly make the transition much smoother constantine but out of. all the stands here wales we call sampling

a cyclist in trouble order for the whole of russia on his own but if gainey are stopping hasn't quenches first revenge as plans more extreme journeys as my reports on his latest amazing feat u.t. has developed quite a following over the last year or so one half years and nineteen thousand kilometers southeast chances journey in moscow he finally arrived at his destination in school to day nor which is in russia's far east. and he told his many fans about his wonderful experience of god being a remember when the temperature would drop sharply and i was psychologically completely unprepared for this i had to cope with this situation and find a way to come through this and i feel a stronger person for managing to achieve this there were also moments when i was just touched by people's kindness or i would be tired and completely soaked and strangers would invite me into their houses to keep warm and would feed me and would even let me spend the night there. the whole trip of it getting really took

up cycling seven years ago across the whole of russia and also a large section of central asia and he didn't have any sponsorship and the whole trip cost him in the region of thirty thousand u.s. dollars. however the forty two year old who also works for microsoft said it was an amazing experience to see so many wonderful sights water i really enjoyed the mountains and lakes from above if i was to pick out two of my points these would be the it's a cool lake in kurdistan and like by car of course i found siberia very unforgiving as the weather was constantly changing the russian undertook his journey alone and it was a feeling of being completely isolated on occasions but gave him the most to think about it's from. what i remember when i was up one kilometer high a mountain and i was completely alone i knew i had to be so careful and not make any mistake as there would be no one who could save me it would be better for me to

take an hour longer but make sure that i was safe i also remember last winter i was travelling for seven days and didn't see a single person but i had to make sure that my plan was foolproof otherwise i could die. we've given you traveled lines with a tent satellite phone and a gas stove always with him thankfully he did not pick up any serious injuries though did suffer from sitting in his saddle for hours upon end and he recalled how he felt when he finally managed to cross the finish line just the last look up i just remember thinking you're going to so happy like i have finally done this so it was a victory on which to avoid it's difficult to comprehend just what an amazing achievement new guinea is accomplished eighteen months and nineteen thousand kilometers covered it doesn't really put this feet into complete perspective as he had to endure some very unforgiving terrain and temperatures which dropped well below freezing however

he still has ideas about his next adventure is saying he'd love to cycle across india and from north america right down to tierra del fuego at the bottom of argentina richard on board fleet r.t. moscow finally it was the paralympic movement's turn to rejoice les many years ago to over winter games in sochi where they befitting spectacle or rites of moscow's red square michael crunching care was on hand to bring a space for ports. so the biggest news to come out of such this past week was the celebration of one year until the start of the paralympic winter games in sochi now of course this event itself is the eleventh already and we will expect to see up to one thousand three hundred fifty paralympic athletes participating in these games they'll be representing forty five different countries and will be competing for seventy two sets of medals in five paralympic sports to celebrate the countdown
