get you a lot more light and waste way less wattage in the process and up and coming russian company is just open a huge new production facility to help make that energy efficient dream a reality. begun doesn't need my sleazy sales pitch the high tech brainchild of a trio of russian scientist was born abroad and is now returned to russia to cover britain on a shiny new factory at the outskirts of st petersburg aside from being a happy homecoming the l.e.d. assembly line launches a big step in russia's attempts to modernize its economy to go green at the same time. the capacity of an infection through point is the highest or inode to business today in russian and chinese countries and in eastern europe we can produce to the same community. a month. it's equal to. three hundred seventy five thousand square meters l.e.d. is good latest in a long line russians alexander ludwig and. made some of the first strides in constructing the incandescent lamps in the eighteenth seventies using carbon filaments renowned american inventor thomas edison introduced improved filaments that extended relatively short life of electric bulbs first to forty then to over one thousand hours by the early twentieth century the tungsten filament light bulbs still in use today were already emerging and lamps appeared in the thirty's and lamps at the end of the one nine hundred fifty s. and high pressure sodium street lighting in the sixty's compact fluorescents or c.f.l. were pioneers in the seventy's and are still a popular option as we move towards energy efficiency gallium nitride light emitting diodes may be seen in the ninety's with improvements in technology since then showing incredible flexibility and efficiency quite possibly making l.e.d. the light of the future. that bright future that brought out the big shots the octagon factory opening the governor of same peers very clearly understood the positive impact of having the company on her church and she was joined by top level dignitaries and investors from moscow and beyond it's a project that state high tech corporation is happy to throw its weight behind. this is one hundred percent. from the ground up on the fundamental level we can thank for his scientific contribution he won the nobel prize for his research in the field of hatred structures which of the basis of the light emitting diode said have been produced here. in fact there is one st petersburg academy at the root of all of this the physical technical institute its been a world class center for fundamental physics in cutting edge technology since the days of its founder of. not only did he in the faculty of the living it would soon . there is name train the ranks of the soviet union's top nuclear scientists they also begin work on semiconductors that underpins virtually all modern electronics. was one of the institute's bright stars in the field of semiconductor physics and a forefather of today's daily d's. semiconductor like the meeting diets were developed in twenty piny by russian scientists. experimented with. the end of the nine hundred sixty s. we saw the appearance of more d.s. based on a three d. film semiconductor hitter restrictions that was in late one nine hundred sixty s. and early one nine hundred seventy s. this acknowledging implemented of these facilities is the next generation know how developed by my students and what we see here demonstrates how fast this area is changing both in scientific and technological terms and also in terms of the top rate equipment operating here. to go on top managers maxime the flood is slow growth and i would say coach for all of you out of students in the same mid ninety's graduate class and while the op electronics department go for instance you gave them the best account nations they were completing their studies at a time of difficult transition for the russian scientific community. at the beginning of the nine hundred ninety s. our economy faced a dramatic up evil due to disastrous reforms implemented by the governments out i mean they were carried out in a callous way and as a result russian science found itself in a difficult situation we could not have survived can also be maintained on scientific potential without international collaboration. to guns founders were part of a global generation of innovative entrepreneurs seeking elusive startup conditions in an era of uncertainty in fact much of the developed world was suffering an economic identity crisis in the late twentieth century. not just in the collapsing socialist bloc the west german city of dortmund where the russian innovators eventually found her incubator was no exception. the world is full of rusting old industrial space fallen by the wayside in a constant shift of the global economy the challenge on everyone's minds is to rethink and rebuild these spaces to compete in the high tech twenty first century. these challenges were particularly acute in jordan a city at the heart of the once mighty mail logical complex in europe's largest economy these pictures are from the final days of felix west a massive plan operated by the steel giant crude that along with other heavy industry installations was the lifeblood of the city's well established working class long before the mill was shuttered for good in one thousand nine hundred eight the economic outlook was darkening. from the crisis a lot of working places have. they had to take a decision here what to do for the future what to do next what comes off the street . and decided to focus on high technology twenty x. x. that was a decision in eighty's and the result of this decision you can see here so. which is one of the. by the way is. companies. inside. woods inside is an impressive new facility a far cry from the dreary dortmunder of years past with doors open in april two thousand and five. factories set up as a competent center for micro and nano technology startups with offices laboratory and clean room infrastructure for small companies trying to take technology from ideas to products if you silly combines funding from the city state and european union now hosting around twenty companies with over one hundred employees. including many from russia so really what you see here in the white world is basically the essence of eight years of experience all rick perry did with a dozen friends and i did stuff seems that you are the root in technology that needs to have access to global markets openness neither is say get into tween and don't want this rush magic teams find the perfect infrastructure in order to do the conversion of their technology into products where is the money to make their reality come from well basically it needs investors right but you know to get them this infrastructure in a high tech start up team to make a predictable conversion you have a clear timeframe of two the three years in order to convert technology can products and prepare a company in order to approach global markets that's exactly the kind of preparation aleksey called and his classmates turned business partners and off to gone were looking for when they came to dortmund and integrator to help them take tough quality optoelectronics technology to the market. up the gun originally was founded by. two my friends and classmates from university and myself and later on my own he joined us and he helped to move on here to sell it is she'll consult an elite the company mainak aeration was here in gorton and through this time to develop the main principles and basically team to the final product we created the elegant and today we are between temple companies on the level of performance so what exactly was it that opera guy needed to get their business off the ground insured equipment blaming diodes don't grow on trees they grow in every taxi all reactors are able to read top quality equipment in affordable rates and the m.s.t. factory in jordan after gun totin said about generating a tough call the sample that made them an attractive investment to set up a full scale production here's how it's done. l.e.d. production starts with a thin mana crystalise sapphire wafer in a process known as epitaph. placed inside a special chamber the wafer is bombarded with various gases to form a multi layered structure under specific pressure and temperature conditions the gases cause chemical reactions weaving layers of gallium nitride indium nitride and aluminum nitride on the way for surface each wafer will produce up to thousands of elite teams so a laser edging process cards out the individual chips contacts or benefits to each one of the tiny l.e.d. chips are now ready to be placed inside the encasement connected with gold wire the context and covered with a foster layer to convert blue to white light and negative in positive charge currents meet in the active player of the diode releasing photons in the form of visible light. not a technology rather the energy efficiency like really. recovering the innovation technologies and look to russia and we talked to several groups of friends several financial groups and on the group michael. much faster than others they realize the potential of the company and they simply bought it now mean the marine corps. and ease inside these protection lives with phones the way that we can grow material with the least dislocations and defects to human. meaning that we can build chips with a more cost efficient technology delivering the same level of performance we are in a transition phase from either going to factory who have here in germany. trying to do in russia begun is now busy calibrating their production lines in st petersburg to perfectly recreate the recipe day nailed down in dortmund it's a tedious process even on the prototype scale and now the expectations are far higher comes out of these machines is going not to showcase for potential investors but to meet the lighting needs of clients so if all goes to plan what advantages can their l.g.'s offer for an equivalent amount of light octagon projects it's. fell's nearly ten fold and incandescents by fifty times meanwhile the l.e.d.s. will cut in half the energy usage of most c.f.l. zx and usefully ten times less like tricity then old school bulbs mercury pollution is a potentially serious problem with energy saving c.f.l. l.e.d.s. avoid that toxic threat elegies completely. environmentally safe in russia from let's hear from. ban four hundred watt incandescent bulbs like other people because well you're a california but in russia there is no such high penetration of those so we see that in terms of the markets us. direct replacement of incandescent bulbs. is bigger compared to europe today so that's why this is that we expect russian market to grow even faster and we think we see the growth of the market for the state like in russia from seven to two hundred percent a year and we expect the standards and to continue top to gun doesn't have to look too far for customers is the city of st petersburg is undergoing an l.e.d. overhaul. our company is in charge of maintaining some one hundred eighty thousand lighting elements around the city that's a huge market for the new. currently power consumption total several major what's happening of the major production plants that will produce and hopefully lights to will be a boost for some pages the brick you initially we intend to use these to eliminate the city's gardens and cox there's also an ambitious new simple construction plan in the pipeline with new streets to be designed and built in two thousand and twelve twenty thirteen so after we've done the parks we'll extend the replacement program to residential districts and then move on to revamp the lighting for major transport arteries in the city as well as the embankments and other key sites beyond their hometown octagon is branching out to the far away russian republic of straddling the arctic circle in icy northern siberia energy efficiency is more than a slogan they're producing electricity and much of the region is expensive and heavily subsidized they also need new technology built to withstand their long haul winters. what have you guys done to make l.e.d.s. still work in temperature conditions like we have a lot of parts of russia it was one of the chatter just makes me mad it was very painful this market that integrated he understood russia is a very cold country and nobody in russia there is a standard you need minus sixty degree acquirement for the shoes of your devices so you know. and it's. this is a prototype here what's different about it i can't tell with the naked eye but tell me a little bit about the technology i would say that right now you can buy minus sixty degree. three make spaces so it's not like a commodity product on the market what we have to make those high end. and the. design is definitely a big part of the heavily competitive game since other companies outside of russia have already been on the market for years octagon has to show the ability to meet customer specific demands temperature standards and it's all about better lighting solutions ever lower costs definitely it's like more economical light. today it's still quite high from two to five six years. but in four years. and it means that. for now that kind of mass scale consumer base is a bit beyond our grasp even if you think this land or street in industrial lighting would be great for your garage you might balk when you saw the three hundred dollars price tag up to gun works on driving down the cost of chip production somebody needs to tackle the issue of bold design before i'm sold on switching over to. the fortunately the creative minds that bit of studios are already on the case his design squad is constantly coming up with new ways to merge high tech function with a fashionable for their blueprints or behind a futuristic prototype octagon screw in l e d. y. it was the mean challenge that you guys had to overcome in making these lines obviously energy technologies question first but it's still got some issues to solve the biggest one ease the problem of could and on because it's great use a lot of heat so we have to design a very good. radiant. is that what this thing is we're here yeah it's like. the theme we just came out for the market maybe three years ago and just the standard solution of we like to change it and make it more effective and we got inspired by nature because if you look at some of the stuff like mushrooms for example there is there they just like because of the way in up and go in. the saying the same similar stuff here and this will help us to extend their capacity and space around and. to make that cooling process more effective from a purely design perspective from an artistic perspective do you like working with bulbs that need a radiator this clunky like when i look at this i see mostly radiator very little ball and you don't get light maybe as much coming down this direction are you looking at ways to completely redo l.e.d. lighting so that you don't have to have such a bulky radiator industry itself is very rapidly changing day by day i think maybe even after one year we will have another design be folks who live different look so what then is the future of this kind of design will look like are you mentioned. getting smaller and smaller and for example they can technology which is called slide engine and physically it's a very very tiny and sleek and been adamant and they implemented that but not you know become an the you could create any shape whatever you want really looking for but some of the designs may seem a bit frivolous a first glance but we're talking about a far more flexible lighting future where we can. the traditional shapes in the name of variety add a bit of color to just about anything and replace old school single function buttons with tiny l.e.d. screens multiplying the device's possibility. of another arena for nation is in the automobile lighting and they will be a hybrid by russian billionaire this month is literally hoping to reinvent the wheel set for full scale production sometime in two thousand and twelve the economy cars are trimmed with all the latest gadgets for the urban commuter could have said next in group backs both octagon in the new car company so it's no wonder he understood the advantages of that product from st petersburg bill which is the first of all the use of lights amazing helps is to compact and s

for joining us tonight that's our show thanks for tuning in adam versus the magic of adam vs the man dot com of all of us in comics and emily adam and adam was the man i've been i was like tomorrow. they'll. they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll . lol slick. bringing you the latest in science and technology from the realm. we dumped a few jerks coverage. if. me please he. says. it's. just such a little. funny . it's so. julius is the capital of you if you wait in the city changed hands many times during the twentieth century after world war one the poles were in charge then during the second world war nazi germany took control when the soviet army drove the fascists out of the baltics the city became if you a nice competent once again of the country join the soviet union. they like saying in russia we liberated the lithuanian people from nazi germany at the go so that i add the following yes you did but you didn't bother to leave afterwards did we. get that when perestroika got underway in the late one nine hundred eighty s. if you are a neo was one of the first soviet republics to demand independence. was for as we are concer

adam. adam shacknai discovered the body. we don't know whether adamthe last person to see her alive. obviously that is important. >> the other important element in terms of her story is going to be the forensics. that should determine whether or not she was assaulted in any way. whether anything else had been done with her. whether there was any struggle. also, whether she was capable of committing suicide in such a bizarre manner. >> that's exactly so. it looks very much like homicide. another thing, usually homicides are rather -- rather suicides are obvious and it takes one detective one day to figure it out. they have multiple decks on this and working it hard. they are waiting for the -- toxicology report they want to know about alcohol or drugs possibly become in her body. they want to know of any dna possibly on her body. >> we are going to talk to dr. baden about that in a minute. in terms of the little boy. there were reports that he fell down stairs that were carpeted, he's 6-years-old in good health, as far as we know this is a strange situ

but, then, he knew how great you would be and you guys have good chemistry together. >> i love adam. adam but he's a fun guy to be around, doesn't take himself seriously. we're constantly messing with each other and sending each other text messages. >> jimmy: like, what would you text? what would you guys text each other? >> just, like, "hey," you know. [ laughter ] "kiss my ass" or mostly like to be that stupid. >> jimmy: how friends talk to each other. >> yes. exactly. you know what i'm sayin'. >> jimmy: look at this. are you excited about this? "red river blue," look at this, the number one album on itunes. [ cheers and applause ] >> wait a minute, what's this? >> jimmy: that's you. that's you. >> you couldn't find the 8 track? what's that like an lp? >> jimmy: that's a record. remember records? >> yeah. that's almost life size. >> jimmy: that's awesome. >> yeah, look at that. >> jimmy: you're a good looking dude. >> thank you. congrats on that. >> jimmy: i have a couple more questions for you. ♪ do you like pina colada [ cheers and applause ] ♪ and getting caught in the rain do you li

adams? vice-president adams: i do agree with the woman who just spoke. however, i'm not a big fan of raising taxes, especially for small businesses. but the reality is we are in a financial crisis right now. and i read this over and over over the weekend. it is only a half a cent. they could have gone higher. i like the fact that this legislation is dedicated. it's not going into the general fund. our speaker spoke about -- you know, we are going to be getting a lot of parolees in this town. public safety is a big deal in my district. we have issues right now and we call the police and it takes a while for them to get there. and it's a big deal. it's just the reality of what's happening in the state of california today. so i will put a motion in support of this half cent sales tax. president o'brien: does anybody want to comment on that first or anybody want to take a vote on that? commissioner clyde? commissioner clyde: i would like to comment before we vote. i too will be supporting this because i do and long have supported dedicated funding for the social safety net. i think that we should have something -- i have children and i don't know how people who have children -- i mean, it's very, very difficult when they're of age and are traveling back and forth across the city right now and you look across -- you look into asia and other cities that are exponentially safer than san francisco. i mean, it's really frightening. so i support that funding. i understand that the state has taken away funding and we're simply replacing funding that we were dependent on for many years. that also argues for this. i thank the mayor for putting this forward. but i also agree with the woman who just spoke in public comment. personal services are not taxed. commercial rents are not taxed. there are many businesses where we have to start looking together, residents have to get together. there is a residential utilities tax in almost every jurisdiction in california. it's very small, but it adds up. you know, these little things with our 800,000 residents, a very little amount of money could fund some very important programs, like healthy france. so i really think we're going to have to get together and start talking about these revenue measures in addition, sales tax can just not be the only solution, but right now, i'm going to support this. so thank you. president o'brien: commissioner riley? president riley: yes, under the circumstances, we do need to come up with a solution. but i do have a question. what kind of outreach efforts will you do and what's the response? >> thanks for the question. i think there are a couple of answers we've had. several meetings internally at the mayor's office as we have been thinking through this, we met with small business network, chamber of commerce, a number of stake holders to get their view on this idea. the mayor has also raised this as he has been going out and doing town hall meetings and merchant walks and been trying to talk to people about this and gauge the opinion. i think the response -- first of all, the second part of the answer to that is i think there is also still a long way to go on this. and that coming here to the small business commission is one of our first steps as we go through this process. so we have introduced this legislation. we're going to go to the board. so we're still in the process of doing more outreach and starting to have conversations with you and then subsequently with others. so part of the goal here is to hear your thoughts and your feedback and there will be more discussions to come. but beyond that, i think what we've heard as we've brought this up with people are similar comments to what we've heard today, that i don't think anybody is thrilled about the position that we're in and nobody takes any joy in having to place tax measures on the ballot, and everybody is kardashianed about what the impacts of any policy decision we have are going to be on small businesses in the city because i think it's pretty clear, at least from my perspective, that that is not a part of our economy that we can afford to take for granted. and i think the mayor shares that view. with that being said, i think people understand the situation we're in. as a number of you have expressed, that we've got a significant financial short fall and that -- you know, i think one of the things that we've heard that's really important to people is that when we're trying to address the budget problem, we're not just trying to address it by throwing taxes out there. that we are trying to approach it strategically and with a plan that involves a lot of hard decisions and having to ask a lot of different people to take part in the solutions, and i think it would be a very different story if we were just saying ok, we've got a budget problem, we can't think of what to do, let's just throw some taxes out there. we're trying to work with labor on pension reform and we're trying to cut costs in city government and so we're trying to have a mixed approach. that's been one of the clear pieces of feedback that we've heard from stake holders, that we're open to this, but it has to be part of a broader package of solutions, so we've really tried to take that to heart. and lastly, i think people understand again that it's not ideal, but that there is an opportunity here for better or worse, and i don't think any of us, like i said, is happy about being in this situation or is thrilled about what's going on in sacramento, but but that there's an opportunity here to have a responsible measure on the ballot that actually takes advantage of the situation in sacramento where we can generate some revenue as part of our plan while still lowering our sales tax rate. so i think that's kind of the big picture similar to what i've heard from the commissioners here today. that nobody is thrilled about it. but that they understand that if it's taken, it's part of a larger package that this is a reasonable approach, and to date, we have heard concerns, but we have not heard organized groups that have come to us and said this is unreasonable, take it away. to the contrary, we've heard most groups say we understand why you're doing this, and it seems like compared to a lot of the other options that are potentially out there that could end up on the balloting that this is abapproach that is acceptable and that people can support. president riley: you do need 2/3 of the vote. >> we do need 2/3 of the vote, so it's a high hurdle. president o'brien: commissioner dooley? commissioner dooley: i just want to reemphasize what some of my fellow commissioners said, which is you can't keep going to the same group over and over again. the small businesses in particular. you know, they don't have a strong advocacy behind them except for us, and there are a lot of folks out there that are not paying their fair share, and i feel like while we will support this as an emergency thing, i just cannot emphasize more strongly that these other folks have to share the burden too and, you know, we're kind of tired of them paying no sales taxes. that is just wrong. that then other folks are burdened with a higher tax burden. i really would like to hear from the mayor that those other possibilities are actively being explored, because i think that's extremely important. my other comment is i'm still very uncomfortable with the one-year -- you know, if the state doesn't do it in one year. i would like to hear you go back and extend that for a much longer period of time. if they do this three years from now and folks are not going to want a car, that half a percent of a big ticket item is a real disadvantage. i would like to see this extended throughout the life of the increase. i just think that -- otherwise it could become a burden -- especially people who are buying large items. >> thank you, commissioner. i absolutely appreciate those comments and understand and will relay them to the mayor. thank you very much. president o'brien: i totally agree with everything that has been said. i think the mayor has managed to engender a lot of good faith and a lot of genuine desire to work with him in these tough budget times. you know, i never thought i would see the day where i'd be even for a second entertaining the idea of a tax. i thought i would never be one of those people. but it's easier when you're just walking down the street to say no taxes than when you're in a position that makes a difference. that said, it is pretty gentle. we are going from reduction -- we're still seeing a net reduction, which i think is really good. and the fact that this is an integral part of the mayor's budget plan, which i think he's doing a really good job on and everybody's supporting it, including labor and other stake holders. we've got to support this, in my opinion. but i would like to modify the motion on the table to add a line that we do not want to see a situation where that 1% in a year -- i mean, the answer that he gave is probably essentially and necessarily technical in nature regarding legal policy. i kind of half understand it. but if that's the only component that's going to be locked into the uncertainty, what goes on at the state budget, then i'm kind of thinking, well, if we want to remove other things that are unpredictable because of the state, ok. but if this one thing has to be engaged to it, then leave it there for as long as it needs to be there. and if they bring it back, then it gets removed automatically. i just don't want to leave open the possibility that they can encrease it after 12 months. and we're not protective with a mandatory statement that says we have to take it away. i'd rather see it in there. so i'd like to propose, if i may, to somehow amend the motion that the language is in there that that's locked in there. i don't know how to put that in there. if i could get some help with that. >> i would just saito tally agree with you on that and i agree with commissioner dooley, to purport the motion to help support this. but however, i would like to add in the motion that if the state rescinds the sales tax, that this state tax would go away. president o'brien: without a year lock. >> would that be if the state reimposes? >> yes. if the state reimposes, this goes away. president o'brien: if i may, i -- >> if i may, i appreciate the suggestion. just in terms of a process, we're going to now have this legislation before the board of supervisors, so if it pleases the commission and it fits the intent, one thing that you might consider adding is encouraging the mayor and the board of supervisors to consider amendments to the legislation to extend that period of time. since we actually would have to make that amendment at the board that would provide a direction about the commission's intent, i think that the mayor and the board could use and have a specific direction of what type of action you'd like to see in that process. >> that would then put the amendment on there to rescind this if the state comes back. president o'brien: do you have that, chris?

adams? vice president adams: i appreciate your comments because you hit the nail with that one and i think about, you know, san francisco's a tourist town, o.k., and we get people from all over the world and a lot of conventions here and a lot of people come here because they want to do stuff in the evenings and this ordinance will make people go out and get into the neighborhoods and see our city and want to come back and back and back and spend money in our small businesses and cafes and everything so i really like this, but i do like to stress the area south of market, westportal, pacific avenue, that i didn't see on here, because i do think it's important that -- i mean, i love this legislation. i think it will help tourism but i would like to see it citywide. >> i agree with you. vice president adams: i know there's the politics that you have to deal with but i can't thank you enough for this legislation because it will help a lot of these small businesses, especially the cafes and small restaurants and bars because a lot of them don't do entertainment because it costs too much. supervisor mirkarimi: so we're looking at about 30% of the cost of what is already required of what the permitting and the accessory costs are so for us to create a new tier at 70% reduction at the current costs and thinking there are hundreds -- and i'm not kidding, what we've been able to survey in the corridors eligible for this -- hundreds of cafes and restaurants that we think that could take advantage of this in the not-too-distant future over that period of time really could change the landscape of entertainment in san francisco and helping the businesses that really are looking for as much of a leg up as they possibly can. you know, and keep in mind, it wasn't that long ago that we just inaugurated

adam shapiro she is one activist adam thanks so much for being with us so obviously there's been a lot is going forth about exactly what happened with the click tell of which was supposed to that there was this american vote you're an activist you've been organizing that your wife without their support what happened. first. one of the posts of the post a little we had all together started this mission one of the new us so try to make its way today i was concerned for national waters where due to meet with the other ships you know we should continue to depart. about. twenty minutes. waters be reclusive came up to the ship from entrance with a couple of larger cutters and then. coast guard those wearing masks in carry automatic weapons. down into it and pulled up alongside the ship. i mean to you to get me to board the ship there was a standoff for some time. in the carpenter's try to challenge the coast guard really do with the rest. of the trip with the score to back into a port where pulled in a couple of hours ago and our seniors are starting to make their way. we don't know yet the status of that ship whether it's complicated or not we still have. seven other ships that are ready to leave getting ready to leave and two of our ships earlier this week have been sabotaged so you know way the flotilla has already begun it began actually last saturday when one ship left. with the attacks on our ships this act occurred last year israel is really you know already attacking. you know if you go in there we are getting many interviews we are doing a lot of work immediately here with watching what's going on and already it's quite causing quite a stir around the world including israel not just about the flotilla but more importantly about the blockade of gaza ok i want to get in here because you mentioned you know israel is already thinking action but this is the greek government keeping up on tell about from bank bailout or turning around in the greek government has reportedly voted to stop all boats from setting sail so i think what activists is quoted as saying it's like they move the blockade from gaza to greece why this reaction from the greek government. actually seeing the outsourcing of the blockade to greece we know we saw we heard prime minister netanyahu comments yesterday where he thanked. prime minister papandreou for basically doing israel's work for it and what we know behind the scenes that israel has been putting as well as the united states has been putting a ton of pressure on the greek government and as i'm sure look your viewers know the greek government is having a very weak position because of its economic problems that are very popular government and it. can certainly fall prey to such pressure and we believe although we don't have concrete evidence of this we do believe that both united were putting economic pressure on greece as well ok well what is next i mean when you write that . do at this point obviously there's you know you suffered some setback you have a clear statement from the greek government what are you going to do or even proceed self yes we will continue to challenge we're going to challenge the cabinet decision which i will lose here believe me legal order will be challenging is required we will be. blockaded. understand perhaps never before a little bit better what it would be like to be. get out into open sea which is right in front of us in the ports where we are. to. see right in front of them. well certainly ironic parallel that you draw recently appreciate you giving us that on the ground. you know account at exactly what is happening now is adam shapiro with the free gaza movement on the phone with us from athens greece we've heard moammar gadhafi and his son are facing charges from the international criminal court the u.s. welcomed the charges but now we hear from the libyan leader's accused son archie spoke one on one with the fall islam khadafi in his first interview since the charges were filed he said first that nato offer the regime an under the table deal that would be the charges dropped if they followed through with it he also denies that either he or his father ordered the killing of civilian protesters in libya as they're accused of doing but here's what he said about the mistakes he says the qaddafi regime did make to the lesson. that was told we delayed by. weapons specially for pressure of the mistake by the way we did that. with the strong army because we thought it was for three americans the other friends before him. so. not to build a strong and modern army was a big big perceive because we thought most of o
