says he is closely following the case you have heard or can't comment on this we're just waiting for the outcome it's hard to say anything right now probably only two people really know the truth we're keeping in touch with him and supporting him. with this such olympics getting underway in less than three months believe the deal has called up a few new faces for the four nation cardia lock up on the euro tour with a possible absence of demand for lama for the home games in a moscow's two time going cup winner alexandre to return to the roster earning his first cap in the three years since billy deneuve has been coach. i guess my dream has finally come true i'm back in the team however it doesn't mean anything yet as i need to prove myself between the stakes. each of the three games on the euro tour is a chance to test the team ahead of delegates and then certainty. is not the only issue for the red machine to gauge ales biggest stars i like sandra bullock and iliac

a while true missed the field on stage of the tournament and while injured or rather wolf will be fit to play at the braille and pickle leg of the tour in searching december sky st petersburg forward go on. has been given a great idea but you know the busy schedule of the k h l the players are working a full stretch but as governor took returned to russia he's already been injured twice we consulted the doctors and decided to give him a rest there's no need to play him at the euro tour for now the dropping of the bark at the most anticipated ice hockey can petition in years is fast approaching with russia said to win against slovenia on february the thirteenth and choosing the number one between the pipes is the number one decision in monks' several that billy dean of will have to make as a rusher target of first olympic gold since one thousand eight hundred eight constantine by the above party. and while the senior squad are looking to such

a rush as under twenty's are preparing for the world junior championships in sweden at the end of december with the pressure now on to improve on last year's bronze which abound courtly reports. fourteen tournament was the perfect preparation for russia and a good mix months world junior championships they were pitted against finland sweden and the czech republic managing two wins from free including a six one rout of the chain with their own defeat coming in sweden who won silver at last year's world juniors there's been a good warm up exercise for head coach and i call that he gets better look at some of his home base play as opposed base in north america currently unavailable further all eyes will be on the upcoming world championships in sweden which got underway late december as russia looked to time better the bronze medal that they won last time on home ice and. a few names sent to return from last year's squad like me you agree to ringgold the buffalo sabers and goaltender andrei wasilewski

who's ready established himself as the starting netminder the cage held club some of i.q. lions club an ending mitchell skin who's currently with the dallas stars is all set to play. pretty good rinko are currently playing in the n.h.l. getting valuable experience which is something vaughan mccall believes will be of great benefit when the world juniors get underway. it's always very important that you can call on players who already have experience of playing in world championships just because we have players in the risk ward who have never experienced playing against canada or the united states the former world juniors russia will compete in the subway series in canada playing two games each against a core bank major junior hockey league beyond terry hockey league and the western hockey league which starts in a week's time this will see a jump in process and a more physical style of hockey i'm dreamin on of who is part of the do now moscow's side to one last season's bigger income experiences much needed.

a head coach because of on the court said that twelve to thirteen players who played in this tournament won't be going to canada to play in the sun. super series i'm not happy with that is last year the super series really helped us develop and become accustomed to the north american style of hockey where every match is like a battle and it helps to develop team spirit within the squad. russia's former world juniors has been impressive in recent years in the competition in two thousand and eleven but they had to settle for a silver and a bronze over the last two competitions they won't be able to call on the lines of you give me cause it solves all this time round but that gives a new group of players the chance to step up and make a name for themselves and one finds hockey's biggest stages of important r.t. moscow. from the pitch and the ice to the best of the rest as rookie mark marquez became the youngest ever moto g.p.

champion after finishing third at the season ending balance the a grand prix last year's champion holder lorenzo won the race ahead of dani pedrosa to secure his second straight victory but it was not enough to overtake markets at the top of the overall standings as the twenty year old prevailed by the slender margin of four points quantity may produce a finish the year in third after the spanish we have dominated the season between them winning seventeen of the eighteen races. you know him that comes through maybe doing a little because i do that as they did their first in the first season. now it feels so good they've got this brain where they feel. well meanwhile in england sebastian vettel was all smiles as the recently crowned formula one champion visited the red bull factory to say thank you to the team behind his four straight well title the two races to go on the calendar that he's also chasing michael schumacher his record as thirteen wins in

a season but is taking nothing for granted. people tend to call it. domination i don't like the word domination because it make makes things so easy and this we look back over into every single race individual race it was very very hard work and we put everything in it. meanwhile world number one golfer tiger woods created an unusual piece of history as the american fourteen time major winner hit drives from europe into asia if stumbo turkish organizers say these were the first ever shots from one continent to another but woods had to settle for a share of third spot as frenchman victor do we saw claimed his maiden title after winning the turkey show going by two shots. but he will now and just go must go last their second year early game in a row going down seventy nine points to seventy at barcelona to stick to force in

group a the army men lead by five points at half time but top score one call us not our own knocked up seventeen of his twenty points after the main break to help the home side claim victory and go second behind unbeaten turkish side that never change. and in the n.b.a. the l.a. lakers halted the rockets best start for six years with a ninety nine points to ninety eight victory in houston point how it faced his former side the lakers for the first time but it was houston's james harden his top score thirty five points and the rockets were ninety eight ninety six ahead with three seconds left steve blake then sent a three pointer over howard to grab a last second victory for the lakers. now it's time for a break but stay tuned for fighting talk and fighting action don't go away.

horizon. in the company was and i don't care who i face in the ring i fight anyone and even now i feel ready to fight for the champions belt a couple more fights before the title bout would be perfect i think if i have a three no record in the u.f.c. i'll be given a title shot. to finish here. in terms of skill he's ready he has great boxing a good ground game to me nobody in the u.f.c. flyweight division is better astroid king or grappling than him he's also a very strong athlete vai's weight but it's just not the right time yet he's only just made his debut in style and will soon have his second fight on the u.f.c. as anniversary such a lot of emotion and drive he needs to experience it and get used to his new environment have safe for fights in the year and only then the u.f.c. champions title will become his sole motivation and that will be the right time.

well the chance to become the on the student best flyweight in the world really is what waiting for. our city. now moving on to freestyle wrestling and russia fought back from three nil down to be rivals georgia four three after a gripping final ballot at the six nation moscow lites cup michael graf janko was there. the sport of wrestling is on a high after keeping its traditional spot at the olympics and russia's freestyle wrestling team was also in a confident mood after finishing second at the recent world championships in budapest it destroy time round they went into the bouts against rivals georgia already one nil down as they missed the likes of olympic champion jamal dawson time off and failed to register a single wrestler in the hundred twenty kilogram category they then faced another uphill toss i thought the lighter weights failed to handle their opponents and give

to them made this a put three milly's on their fighting spirit was finally found at some us some mccoy produced a strong performance this is called by a mother can get some results from four years in building a list sus wants to live to lead to tie in the balance and. then hearing from. the final five to sixty five to have a russian time but this is a seven point six victory. of course georgia has a strong team they're great at traditional wrestling as well as freestyle and it was a pleasure to meet them in the final and even though we had a younger reserve side today four two was in our favor and that with the help of design we won this thanks to everyone involved and thanks to all the fans with the . earlier in the graeco-roman final turkey also beat a determined georgia team fourth straight but again only after getting their

opponents a three new lead. with the deciding victory coming through veteran wrestler to lose a. russian made up for not making the final ice russian vogue area seven zero however head coach is really was still proud of his young squad. modernise it is it a necessity are we came with a reserve team as we let our limping champions have a rest after their efforts at the world championships are three heaviest weight categories work at the youngsters so of course we knew it would different be. goal is to win everything but you can win the move will be sure though will win in the next lympics and the world championships so for thirty years running the moscow lights european nations cup has been a good way for europe's resting elite to end the calendar year this year however seems to be little bit more significant what with olympic berth now sealed and a revamp of the rules and many here will be hoping that it will stay an olympic sport well beyond twenty twenty four like

a good chunk of moscow. and after surviving that a lympics scare wrestling was among the forty one sports whose pictograms were unveiled for the rio olympics in twenty sixteen these images were first used at the nine hundred forty eight london games and have since become key symbols along with the a limping rings. while brazil also marked one thousand days to go before the games by opening an observatory at the rio and big park the nine meta tower overlooks the construction site where nine venues will host ten and then pick and ten paralympic sport in twenty sixteen the rio games are the first to be staged in south america. and there's less than ninety days to go before russia hosts their maiden winter olympics in sochi and the torch to light up those games was taken on a space walk for the first time in history russian cosmonauts called off and surrogate is an ski pass the torch to each other to complete the first ever relay

in outer space that torch will light the cauldron at the opening ceremony on february the seventh. and let's finish with a host of spectacular stunts from the night trace circus show which wowed the crowd here in moscow and michael craft met some of the stars to find out what a night rose all about. gravity defying tricks jaw dropping stunts and a bit of slapstick entertainment is all in a day's work for the night to sixty people started just over a decade ago as a bunch of guys with my experience motor sports a strong feeling good bye and base jump start a range of the teams it's now a global and born into to be seen on the street as well as the full tool but despite the rapid rise the change still comes across as

a bunch of guys doing stunts or circus is you know it's like you know time a group of friends are pretty much like family and i were just like helping each other push each other's limits and just like you know support never want to hand out you know this is a great way to you know how to motivate people to see what your true potential isn't that they can really do anything and push their sport really hard. twenty two year old down for the ring on how spinal bifida was used a wheelchair since he was three he performs tricks adapted from skateboarding in the next you know like customized chat with full view suspension which cushions his landings but the most high octane stunts are by the freestyle motocross riders with their crazy tricks high in the air drawing the biggest gusts from the crowd. like a circus team or a close knit family as much as they are crazy individuals but they are all professionals and they include some of the best in the world just like exclaims

blake williams so well as contests and. you have to push push the progression of the sport every single tony rodham after doing that i usually had a lot of crashes trying stuff that other people have a donna and even doing tricks it all done over the years it was pretty hard with this it's more a lot. so it's more about. you know not just being the best as an individual but writing together as a girl and you know that really counts because they were all given all the time on you know that when you go on upside down for a papal watercourse a downer. like i said it's more relaxed approach but it's still very dangerous and that's why. the group isn't exclusive to guys record breaking stuff joe levy was the first canadian women's motocross champion and the first woman to backflip a full sized. i never feel pressure i just. being i know it's everyone i think you're the only girl you must feel some type of pressure being the only girl

but i don't see myself as one of them and i'm always just trying to push myself and do awesome stuff like they are all the time and i just kind of have a focus on certain stunts that i want to do for my own personal being and i just go out there and get them. and that view is just one member of a very cost as the knights of crew actions includes extreme sports mountain biking and studer idea to ski the base jumpers snow and skateboarders and roller skaters plus a range of contraptions performed by experts in the field who want you to enjoy a truly unique show. and that's all the sport i find. it is obviously more for the latest because it's pink. women wanted to avoid rape

they really needed to buy guns environ how to use them. this is the one that i want to go with them once again it's the feel for all women definitely a target of the gun lobby and you don't want to kill them when the killing many would have somebody with you with this one person. i'm noticing more and more is this really scary marketing tactics which implies that women have some sort of moral obligation to own guns to protect their family and young girls shoot out here too so we do have a pink or. more kids young kids choke on food than are killed by firearms if being armed made us safer in america we should be the safest nation on earth were clearly not the safest.

put it in your cultural norm in a lot of these college face i think you're right. a pleasure to have you with us here on t.v. today i'm sure. the olympic torch is on its epic journey to structure. one hundred twenty three days. through to see my mother tongue two cities of russia. relayed by fourteen thousand people. for sixty five thousand killing. in a record setting trip by land air sea and others made. a limp the torch relay. on r t r two dot com.

when western politicians and media invoked the phrase international community it almost always reflects the thinking and agenda of washington and its closest allies around the world used in this matter the international community is in fact a very small minority. who are not psyched to an active camp at guantanamo where patients are forced that the outer amount on the first strike never turned the world's attention to the place that some gulag of our times.

we are not blind and i don't think we're stupid the us shrugs i'm a shallow proposed nuclear agreement with iran and tensions among world powers stole progress only served to you. big money over big trouble say it's a free trade deal with the u. was that could mean billions in profit but critics say it will ruin european democracy and make corporations wall powerful then governments plot. feeling that torch has successfully returned to earth after a historic trip to space and now the longest torch relay in olympic history is set to continue we'll bring you the details.
