he's going to conduct surveillance just how much information they're actually collecting and storing in some cases for years you know these are very significant problems these are the types of issues that can doom a democracy like ours. exactly what happened that day i don't know but a woman killed. piers later is when i got arrested. for a crime i did not do. we have numerous cases where police officers lie about polygraph results. and people to confess the police officers don't beat people anymore i mean it just doesn't happen really. in the course of interrogation why because there's been this is like meant no because the psychological techniques are more effective in obtaining confessions than physical abuse and they were often they could do what they wanted they can say what they wanted and there was no

evidence of what they did or what they said. lake baikal is in east siberia people are drawn to it by its beauty its energy and its benevolence spirits. phone astonish i'm an old old shaman. said there is a place where you should sprinkle water and pray to the spirits. and they will guard you and you will get. sued if you really get the impression you would think that something supernatural is happening by carlota produced i mean because i'm a physicist good i know it is impossible. a young scientist from switzerland was attracted to this area where religion. nature and science intertwine. i try to see

by kal in its entirety i didn't know what to expect from this place. but i have discovered something new here rather that i absorb everything that this place offers. more than twenty five million years old. is a little over thirty. the swiss scientists travel to the banks of the oldest lake in the world by ultra light. this tiny aircraft weighs less than five hundred killers a speeds of up to one hundred seventy kilometers per hour it can fly at

three thousand meters where from such altitudes you can examine the bottom of the lake because of the clear waters and his four cameras fixed to be afraid. for josefa is just a scientific endeavor but a personal one. what winds of fate brought the young scientists to the by calibration it all began with a minor research trip. here quite by chance i came up with the idea of experiments. world's oceans there are a lot of organisms that exposed to the light of a certain spectrum range emit light over different range and i wondered if this was also the case with the lake. in short discovered luminescent crustaceans in by coles waters.

serious research of by cal only began in the seventeenth century before that legends travelled around europe but siberia was home to people with the heads of dogs the first expedition destroyed all those myths. habited by. peoples. populated with. white fish and a breed of seal with a photographic memory. it swims close to the shore examines the area. but if. changed even a little. getting close to the. serious threat. feels natural habitat is water.

constantly. for the young. one hundred thirty and grow to one and a half meters in length but on the whole. they like peace and. away from their natural habitat. the silence of the siberian lake. and the spirit of by karl itself they pray for health. and good weather. one of the oldest of the world's faiths fervently observed by. shamans are able to

fall into a deep trance which they believe lets them see into the future. realized his calling in a dream but didn't believe it at first. that . health was poor. in the end i was completely. told me. my brother you have to go through. again this is the place.

if someone he will certainly ask the spirits of bike hell to be favorable to them bringing sunshine and success. i think we're both of us literally include service on their mission. when you arrived at by cal he dreamed of seeing the sun foul weather here hinted scientific experiments the lake has a strong character and its climate is far from what he was it was used to in switzerland. when we first came to lake baikal how the weather was awful but it was

raining heavily by cal was harsh. he the first impression i had of by cow which is in fact true to this day was the extreme weather. if it weren't for divine intervention the young scientist wouldn't be able to work at bike for several days heavy downpours prevented even to leave his house his research was on the verge of shutting down he might just as well have packed up and headed home. it was terrible during our first week here. then three llamas came in. for good weather. it was pouring second day the weather did improve with.

periods surround every month. on. summer. crops there are special rights when we bring in the milk overread cow or white goat and some others. in the region buddhism became especially popular in the eighteenth century when monks from mongolia started settling in the area they set up monasteries and temples the biggest of which is the. people come from all over the worlds to this blessid land to meditate to learn or if they really want something to pray to the gods.

bring different prayers to places emanating buddhist energy. being for their family men want prosperity and success in their work. on the trees here someone's wish locals believe that a wish made here will come true but only on condition that you make. and that you don't ask for too much. after spending a few days a bike started taking some of the superstition seriously each morning he. and in the evening he's thankful for successful work. i didn't know what to expect from this place. something new here. not all scientists are as sensitive to local beliefs conducting studies and by some of them refused to accept the existence of any supernatural. according to them it

contradicts every law of nature. supernatural. being if. it is impossible. in this respect. protection. life is connected with. first of all he was born here he joined the local college and thirty years he's been conducting scientific experiments in the area. baikal is a region of high seismic activity with earthquakes a common occurrence for five years the scientists research has provided exact forecasts of earthquakes around by cal. in two thousand and eight.

separate from a powerful earthquake it was just as strong that is the one that destroyed the fukushima nuclear power station in japan which was washed away by a huge wave. fortunately here the earthquake couldn't produce such a tsunami. is too small. and in two thousand and eight days before the earthquake we registered some fundamental changes in the election magnetic field. that we had never observed before any other case the. only scientific achievements a neutrino detector has been dropped to a depth of one kilometer into the lake. thanks to the pure clear water of baikal the device is able to detect many mysteries not just on the water but also out in

space discoveries of this kind are impossible in salty ocean water. detector is designed to help us explore the history of your universe. find out how we began. what is happening to it now you know what will happen to you if you can the future. is only possible if you watch the streams of unique particles cold neutrinos. with the information of what was there when the universe began.

are you willing to engage yourself in a debate when you would be pressing not only of for legalisation of cannabis in our land but can pay for the abolishment of those punishments in say the united arab emirates why look at what the role and situation here first and we've seen with the country's easiest to solve well the countries that you mentioned there it's an even bigger problem and i would be opinion and of the opinion that she's actually union rights a to consume what you want so long as it isn't turning older so this is actually a bigger issue and then kind of a species of. the sulfur in chief that i have over my own body. clear. please it was terrible a family's very hard to take over. once again there was

a lot that you ever had sex with her right there number. one. it was. a little. bit. like. the beauty of the people. well. you know.

pleasure to have you with us here on our team today. thousands of years ago the region of lake baikal was flat as legend has it the earth shuddered creating a rift from which flames burst out scorching everything around people begs the gods to stop screaming the words and meaning fire it stopped the

spirit of fire. and as time passed water filled the rift this is only the legend but in reality lake baikal was formed by earthquakes. there are lot of theories what their role be stung to process sees. this constantly widening fracture is the result of the movement of plates or group of. scientists agree that by call ocean in the making because the tonic plates are a part this is constantly making by call larger and larger but. never as a lake existed for as long as bike hell. lakes usually last for no more than fifteen thousand years after that they simply dry out and that's been the case for millions of years this lake though was formed long before human history began

remarkably the water content has undergone almost no changes atoll. is very deep and the water is clear and saturated with oxygen to the deepest parts . and yet it has never changed. a land of science discoveries and the unique nature seemingly frozen in time but by kill the press and live side by side with the spirits of the past just like the lake itself locals preserve their own mysteries and traditions. local folklore legends and rituals with great respect. i'm convinced they are absolutely necessary here these rights all date back many more years than many of the scientific research projects her year they are there

learned. or it. stands for six hundred thirty kilometers covering an area the size of some countries like belgium the netherlands . everybody finds a place in the vast area of bike christians buddhists shamans and old believers of the russian orthodox church they've lived here for more than three hundred years they cross themselves with two fingers and reject modern orthodoxy. their faith and which. those have remained untouched throughout all the centuries their villages have their own unique design he tells his painted in rich summer colors old believers clothing has always been famous for its brightness and neatness as well

as embroidered hats and sort of arms yes we're going to see if the girl wears wide reinvents it means she's a bride from a well off family and her father has prepared everything for her to be beautiful at the wedding. he earned. a eulogy. sturgess her. last year there for. well over the years that. were there yeah. i. shared a fear it. will. be years. ok for.

the songs of our ancestors that we seeing are mostly sad because they had a hard life and a little ward that autumn we were cari to you and don't have time to lie on this so far there are we in the garden that need pulling out or berries they need peeking and aside from that there is always cleaning to be done to feel better but i think the other. day old believers thank god for the sun and their health they firmly believe the places around by color sacred any difficulties can be enjoyed with god's help even the weather. when the theater is a holy mountain nearby on the sentient day elderly women go there and pray to god

to send rain and bless the crops. from time to time scientists will admit that even though they don't believe in spirits they do listen to the local legends. we strictly observe the traditions. head here thousand years. believe it helps. we haven't had accidents. in return for respect. generous and reverence with. the scientist from switzerland. paid off the weather has improved allowing the scientists to work. on the banks of . the biggest river flowing into by providing around fifty percent of its river water it's

a powerful filter that cleans everything before it gets into the lake. will continue working next to. the river bed. changed. developing and changing. very important. rich with a constantly circulating from the bottom up that's how the lake keeps itself clean water can safely be drunk straight from.

here. this unique nature it. has when you emotional states. by cal through its beauty individuality and energy can reconcile science with man's belief in supernatural powers. scientists might look for answers to any question but it doesn't mean that everything will be explained one day. that's a completely different approach towards the goals of science differ from those of folklore. you can't escape these legends like the fisherman who carry out their rituals every time before they leave.

god that needs to be placated you should treat him to a little wine or even if you feel like it drink some yourself. oh there's one. where i've never seen anything like this before. so many in just one that. are just about fifty or sixty you can tell by the way. local fisherman firmly convinced the bike will give a good catch when people treated with respect. is not only the oldest but it's also the deepest lake in the world with a depth of one thousand six hundred forty two meters. somewhere on the lake bed the

treasures of the russian empire. one legend has it that in the times of the civil war in russia at the beginning of the twentieth century a ship carrying the gold reserves of the russian empire sank somewhere in this area . no one has found these treasures yet but still being made to this day. cutting edge technology is used and various maps are examined everything possible is being done to find the sunken gold but no one has been lucky so far by cal continues to play hide and seek with. a popular one. direction decided to have a go at it and during that one submersion we had about twelve accidents that we had never had before the first the weather was fine in the forecast was good but once we had reached the spot the weather changed and then it turned out that we had

somehow lost the directions we had specially printed out once we had reached the bottom. and to top it off when we were rising from the bottom. that was to be. best. and it was damaged so i understood then that up above we were on the right track to find in this culture but my call was resolved to keep it that you're with . us if it isn't too eager to leave but his wife and two young daughters are waiting for him at home so many things are still to be done and so much about bike i'll still needs to be unraveled. because those people warned me that once i came to lake baikal my life would change completely i would fall in love with it and would long to come back. i never thought that this place would really affect me so deeply thought of the heriot i spent here has been one of the most interesting and dynamic stages of my life conceiving the fire and i will certainly

look for an opportunity to return to lake baikal through fisa the. remember remember it's yet again the fifth of november in banks there is an con man still rule it's been four hundred years that rebelling stand for a rope a rope was the last never held and for this reason treasonous plot still bad indeed it was blankfein and diamond who did these schemes called ponzi contrived to blow the global economy sky high with three could join derivatives lay deep in dark pools that did prove the market's overthrow. of the markets go boom when the

economy went south well. if you. know opportunity. to start to construct your own currency. no longer be a bit give don't want to be gangstas you don't want to be. they don't want to blow with no time a kid came be we can see. you just meet the boat as i was in my own problems in the hood. thirty round clip. but i said. i don't want to die i just really do not want to die young young.

bright to see. first street. and i think picture. on a reporter's twitter. instagram. the in the. course to an active camp at guantanamo where patients are forced that this comes after announcing their strike never turns the world's attention to the place that some. of our time.

i'm going to be. coming up on r t it's election day twenty thirteen here in the u.s. from new york city to miami beach unconventional candidates are shaking up the usual red vs blue politics in-depth coverage of today's elections just ahead. and in washington state there's a major vote on labeling g.m.o. foods initiative passes it would force biotech manufacturers to disclose the use of genetically modified crops more on a vote for greater transparency coming up. and down in colorado there's an initiative to divide the state eleven counties in northeast colorado will vote on whether or not to secede so what are the chances of a fifty first state we'll tell you more later in the show.
