David Cameron has seen off opposition from his own

:00:07.:00:10.

backbenchers over plans to legalise same-sex marriage in England and

:00:10.:00:14.

Wales. He hopes the first gay marriages will happen by summer

:00:14.:00:24.
:00:24.:00:30.

next year. Burma's President loses the White

House. But more needs to be done? - What are officials doing to ensure

:00:41.:00:51.
:00:51.:00:55.

Burma is a country undergoing extraordinary economic and

:00:55.:01:03.

political changes. He can't head of state has visited the White House.

:01:03.:01:09.

-- the current. The Burma's people want more jobs, of affordable food

:01:09.:01:14.

and clothing and a constant supply of gas and electricity. Can the

:01:26.:01:29.

It's been two years since Burma embarked on its momentous journey.

:01:29.:01:32.

What have its people got to show for it? More freedom, certainly.

:01:32.:01:36.

More newspapers and more traffic. There is a lot more money and a

:01:36.:01:40.

greater choice of goods to buy. But as a few get richer, the rest of

:01:40.:01:43.

the population may become resentful. What will really transform their

:01:43.:01:46.

lives, though, is jobs. Low-cost textiles could be the ideal job

:01:46.:01:49.

creator at this early stage in the country's re-engagement with the

:01:49.:01:54.

world economy. But even Burma's low wages won't be enough to compensate

:01:54.:01:57.

for shortages of power and poor infrastructure for many potential

:01:57.:02:03.

investors. An early magnet for investment will be Burma's natural

:02:03.:02:08.

resources - oil, gas, timber and minerals. Profits are more certain

:02:08.:02:13.

here. There are pitfalls, as this Chinese-owned copper mine has

:02:13.:02:20.

discovered. The lack of clarity over land rights has prompted

:02:21.:02:26.

strong protests and rising anti- Chinese sentiment. After decades of

:02:26.:02:34.

repression, Burma's people have found their voice and are using it.

:02:34.:02:39.

Most of the population still relies on making a living from agriculture.

:02:39.:02:43.

In Burma, it lags behind neighbouring countries. More

:02:43.:02:46.

financial and technical help here could make the biggest difference

:02:46.:02:49.

to the lives of people who have to wait many years for alternative

:02:49.:02:59.
:02:59.:03:05.

Rescue workers have recovered three more bodies from a collapsed

:03:05.:03:12.

underground panel in Indonesia. The death toll stands at 21. Many are

:03:12.:03:16.

missing and feared dead. The mine collapsed last week when workers

:03:16.:03:22.

were undergoing safety training. Our correspondent has more.

:03:22.:03:25.

These are the first pictures of the accident site at Freeport's

:03:25.:03:28.

Grasberg mine which took place last week. The footage was shot by the

:03:29.:03:32.

company. Foreign journalists are banned from reporting from Papua.

:03:32.:03:36.

Getting reliable information from this area is often tricky. Search

:03:36.:03:40.

and rescue teams have been working around the clock, trying to get to

:03:40.:03:42.

the miners trapped inside seven days after the tunnel first

:03:42.:03:52.

collapsed. Freeport's boss flew out to the mines to inspect the rescue

:03:52.:03:57.

operations. We are very serious about this. It is like we lost

:03:57.:04:02.

family members. We want to provide support. We want people working

:04:02.:04:08.

here to be safe because it is dangerous. They are doing that. We

:04:08.:04:13.

are going to respond to this. We will make sure this never happens

:04:13.:04:19.

again. Freeport is taking the accident very seriously. It is the

:04:19.:04:29.

most devastating tragedy to hit the Grasberg mine ever. At the hospital,

:04:29.:04:33.

we met with some of the survivors pulled out last week. Many more

:04:33.:04:36.

remain unaccounted for, trapped inside the mine. It's still not

:04:36.:04:39.

clear what caused the tunnel to collapse. Already, there has been

:04:39.:04:44.

pressure on the American mining The Indonesian President, Susilo

:04:44.:04:47.

Bambang Yudhoyono, has called for a thorough investigation into the

:04:47.:04:52.

Freeport tunnel collapse. He has said that workers in his country

:04:52.:04:56.

are entitled to complete protection. The issue of workers' rights is a

:04:57.:05:00.

sensitive one for Freeport. The Grasberg mine is home to huge

:05:00.:05:03.

reserves of gold and copper and it's frequently been the source of

:05:03.:05:05.

controversy with many Papuan employees saying the American

:05:05.:05:15.
:05:15.:05:17.

mining giant is guilty of exploiting its workers.

:05:18.:05:24.

In other news: Apple held billions of dollars in America unit to avoid

:05:24.:05:29.

taxes to the US government. A Senate report on the structure

:05:29.:05:35.

concluded that these profits were tax very little or not at all. Tim

:05:35.:05:39.

Cook will testify before Congress on Tuesday. Apple said it doesn't

:05:40.:05:45.

use tax gimmicks. It will pay $7 billion of taxes for this year.

:05:45.:05:48.

The Boeing Dreamliner returns to commercial service to the US for

:05:48.:05:55.

the first time since it was grounded by overheating batteries.

:05:55.:05:58.

United is the only American carrier to operate the 787 craft. The other

:05:58.:06:01.

seven airlines that operate that particular model will be watching

:06:01.:06:08.

to make sure that all goes to plan. Yahoo announced on Monday that it

:06:08.:06:11.

is buying the social media website Tumblr. You probably know it is for

:06:11.:06:21.
:06:21.:06:22.

blogs. It was founded by then 20- year-old David Carp in 2007. It has

:06:22.:06:25.

more than 108 million microblogs and has revenue of millions of

:06:25.:06:31.

dollars. It makes barely any profit. What will the deal do for Asia? I

:06:31.:06:41.
:06:41.:06:42.

put the question to an expert in Hong Kong. Yahoo will invigorate

:06:42.:06:46.

themselves a little bit. It has been a bit of a stagnant company

:06:46.:06:49.

over the last five years in particular. Their user base is

:06:49.:06:59.
:06:59.:07:06.

quite ageing, certainly in the US and on a global scale. Getting into

:07:06.:07:11.

Tumblr with quite a younger base opens up a new market for them.

:07:11.:07:19.

Tumblr is a social network. Indeed it will open up new markets for

:07:19.:07:23.

Yahoo. But Tumblr is not a very popular social media site in Asia.

:07:23.:07:27.

Do you think it will help them here among Asian users? Tumblr is still

:07:27.:07:36.

a young company. We don't exactly know how many users they have in

:07:36.:07:46.
:07:46.:07:48.

Asia. Yahoo is popular in Asia. They have a younger users more in

:07:48.:07:54.

Asia than America. Fines will open up. How will the deal affect here

:07:54.:08:01.

who's battle against Google and Facebook? Yahoo need all of the

:08:01.:08:06.

moment they can get. They have been losing ground against North America

:08:06.:08:11.

in the last several years. In 2011, it was overtaken by the Google

:08:11.:08:15.

display network as the biggest display advertising in North

:08:15.:08:19.

America. Yahoo has been losing against the two companies. They

:08:19.:08:24.

need all they can get, especially when they can tap into a new

:08:24.:08:34.
:08:34.:08:35.

network with younger users. It puts them in a better position.

:08:35.:08:41.

China cannot be a free rider in the global trade. That comment was made

:08:41.:08:51.
:08:51.:08:56.

to the BBC. The EU is trying to strengthen its transatlantic ties.

:08:56.:09:02.

We have decided that we agreed on the principle to Lord an

:09:02.:09:12.
:09:12.:09:16.

investigation. We are not starting the investigation. We wanted to

:09:16.:09:24.

come to an amicable solution. If that solution does not surface,

:09:24.:09:27.

they will actually start the investigation. That is what we have

:09:27.:09:33.

decided. To outsiders, the relationship between China end the

:09:33.:09:41.

EU seems a bit tense. Do you agree? China is the second biggest trading

:09:41.:09:48.

partner. A very important trading partner. There should be a level

:09:49.:09:54.

playing field between us. China has been a very big economy. They have

:09:54.:09:59.

to take responsibility, just as we do, for the global trading system.

:09:59.:10:09.
:10:09.:10:11.

It is important. It follows many disciplines with respect to export

:10:11.:10:18.

These are the headlines: A tornado, more than two miles wide at one

:10:57.:11:03.

point, has torn through suburbs of Oklahoma City. Homes and schools

:11:03.:11:09.

are reduced to rubble. At least 51 have been killed. Officials have

:11:09.:11:13.

declared a state of emergency. Children at an elementary school

:11:13.:11:16.

are missing. The Church of Scotland's warning

:11:16.:11:20.

General Assembly has voted to allow actively gay men and women to

:11:20.:11:25.

become ministers. The assembly voted in favour to allow local

:11:25.:11:29.

parishes to opt out of the policy of homosexuality. Our correspondent

:11:29.:11:39.
:11:39.:11:40.

has more. I declare that motion stands. 340,

:11:40.:11:50.
:11:50.:11:52.

282. A passionate debate, a momentous decision. The General

:11:52.:11:59.

Assembly broke with centuries-old teaching, prohibiting homosexuals.

:11:59.:12:02.

Liberal congregations such as St Andrews had pressed for the freedom

:12:02.:12:05.

to choose actively gay ministers in civil partnerships. They had

:12:05.:12:11.

powerful support in the Assembly. Am I accepted in this church or not

:12:11.:12:21.
:12:21.:12:23.

because I am a gay woman? It undermines my very core.

:12:24.:12:26.

traditionalists pleaded for a decisive return to the church's

:12:26.:12:29.

long-standing teaching that sexual activity should be restricted to

:12:29.:12:36.

marriage between a man and woman. The Bible does not anywhere endorse

:12:36.:12:40.

same-sex activity as pleasing to God. We are not talking about

:12:41.:12:44.

orientation here. That's different. We are talking about same-sex

:12:44.:12:52.

sexual activity. Nevertheless, the General Assembly voted parishes to

:12:52.:13:00.

have the freedom to appoint ministers in gay relationships.

:13:00.:13:03.

What you have actually done is given the green light to active

:13:03.:13:06.

homosexuality among ministers. That can't be described as not being a

:13:06.:13:13.

big change in the church's laws. We have not done that. We still

:13:13.:13:17.

hold the traditional view the Church has held. But we also uphold

:13:17.:13:21.

the view that congregations have the right to call the Minister of

:13:21.:13:27.

their choosing. The Church of Scotland claims the decision is

:13:27.:13:32.

confusing and contradictory. For others, it is clear enough. The

:13:32.:13:36.

decision, an unthinkable until recently, will resound far beyond

:13:36.:13:39.

the boundaries of Scotland. It may be some time before the next

:13:39.:13:45.

actively gay minister is appointed. But this will remain the moment the

:13:45.:13:48.

church accepted active homosexuality and was changed

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 65 seconds

forever. Jose Mourinho will coach for two

:15:03.:15:06.

more matches but leave by mutual consent next month. The

:15:06.:15:10.

relationship with his players and management has been strained over

:15:10.:15:12.

recent months. The President, Florentino Perez, says in a

:15:12.:15:16.

statement that the time was right to bring the relationship to a

:15:16.:15:20.

close. Real lost the final to Atletico on fray day, meaning

:15:20.:15:23.

Mourinho finished the season without a major honour for the

:15:23.:15:32.

first time in over a decade. After weeks of rumours real Madrid

:15:32.:15:35.

confirmed that Jose Mourinho will leave the Spanish capital.

:15:35.:15:40.

TRANSLATION: After the talks with our coach, Jose Mourinho, we have

:15:40.:15:44.

reached the agreement to end the contractual relationship the end of

:15:44.:15:48.

the season. Both the club and coach agree it is the right moment to end

:15:48.:15:54.

this relationship. Mourinho arrived at the Bernabeu three years ago but

:15:55.:15:58.

failed to deliver the Champions League. The 50-year-old Portuguese

:15:58.:16:02.

also fell out with players and fans at Real, saying this was the worst

:16:02.:16:06.

season of his career. It appeared to leave him pineing for what he

:16:06.:16:13.

once had. I know... I'm loved by the fans, I'm loved by the media. I

:16:13.:16:20.

know I'm loved by some clubs, special ones, and in Spain the

:16:20.:16:27.

situation is a bit different. People hate me. His former players

:16:27.:16:33.

at stom Ford bridge have not been shy about expressing their

:16:33.:16:38.

affection. He's a workaholic. He has desire. He won't rest on any

:16:38.:16:42.

laurels. His talent is the best. Real is two league games left and

:16:42.:16:46.

Chelsea are heading to the United States for two friendly matches.

:16:46.:16:50.

It's likely to be next month before we know for sure that the special

:16:50.:16:55.

one is coming back. Now, as you heard, Mourinho claimed

:16:55.:17:01.

this season was the worst of his career. Let's look a now at how his

:17:01.:17:06.

record at Real compared to that the other teams managed. He made the

:17:06.:17:12.

headlines in 2003 leading Puorto to a league double. He bettered that

:17:12.:17:16.

12 months later with the Champions League. He was off to Chelsea in

:17:16.:17:25.

2004 with the megabucks of Roman Ibramovic. There was the league cup

:17:25.:17:32.

There were two league titles and a second successive success in the

:17:32.:17:39.

Champions League in a two-year stay 2010, tasked with winning the

:17:39.:17:44.

Champions League again and breaking Barcelona's domestic dominance. He

:17:44.:17:49.

won the Liga last season, but they never progressed wrond the semi-

:17:49.:17:53.

finals in Europe's Premier club competition.

:17:53.:17:57.

Paris St-Germain coach, Carlo Ancelotti, is the clear favourite

:17:57.:18:03.

to replace Mourinho. He's asked to leaf the frem club. -- the French

:18:03.:18:09.

club. PSG originally turned down that approach. They insist they

:18:09.:18:12.

want him to remain as their head coach.

:18:12.:18:19.

Sir Alex Ferguson has collected the final honour of his career at a

:18:19.:18:25.

Managers Association Awards Dinner. The England manager, Roy Hodgson

:18:25.:18:28.

was there, and says he would welcome Mourinho's return to the

:18:28.:18:32.

Premier League. His reputation, well-earned and deserved, puts him

:18:32.:18:36.

at the four front. I'm sure whichever club acquires his

:18:36.:18:40.

services will be more than pleased and he do will do a very good job.

:18:40.:18:46.

The last of the six stadiums to be used at a venue at the

:18:46.:18:51.

Confederations Club is in Brazil. The Brazilian President officially

:18:51.:18:55.

opened 46,000 capacity arena in the northern city. The new stadium will

:18:55.:19:00.

host three Confederation Cup ties and will be one of the 12 venues

:19:00.:19:04.

used for the World Cup next summer. The first game at the stadium was

:19:04.:19:07.

an exhibition test match which had teams made up of construction

:19:07.:19:11.

workers who helped build the arena. Oscar Pistorius won't compete again

South African Rae ceefed a number of invitations but his agent says

that he's not mentally ready to return to the track. He was charged

:20:03.:20:10.

I think Enke denied Camelot the chance to win the triple crown

:20:10.:20:14.

which has not happened for 40-odd years. I think that there was

:20:14.:20:18.

surprise on the day when Enke won, 25-1, but having said that, he

:20:18.:20:23.

passed the test on the day, so then to fail one several months later is

:20:23.:20:28.

a bigger surprise. Now to gosm. Tiger Woods is

:20:28.:20:32.

confident it won't be too many before his five-year major drought

:20:32.:20:35.

comes to an end. The world number one was speaking at a media day

:20:35.:20:40.

ahead of the US Open in Philadelphia next month. There's a

:20:40.:20:44.

few years where I wasn't exactly helping. I missed a bunch of major

:20:44.:20:50.

championships. Now that my game has come around, I'm shown signs of it

:20:50.:20:56.

last year, you know, I think I was in the lead at the US Open, PGL

:20:56.:21:05.

right there, and the Masters was going pretty good until that nice

:21:05.:21:11.

little one at the 15. I've been there, and then this past week at

:21:11.:21:14.

the Players, it's another big event. I end up doing well that week. So

:21:14.:21:19.

my game's coming around and to have won you know, seven times the last

:21:19.:21:24.

couple of years is something I'm proud of. And Woods has never been

:21:24.:21:26.

the biggest fan of being interviewed by journalists. There

:21:26.:21:29.

was a classic example in Monday's press conference. He was asked

:21:29.:21:35.

about the prospect of ending his feud with GarciaT pair exchanged

:21:35.:21:41.

insults about whether Woods disrupted Garcia's swing this year.

:21:41.:21:45.

A lot of the people on the outside looking in, it appeared so petty,

:21:46.:21:49.

has there ever been any thought of contacting him and saying, "Hey,

:21:49.:21:52.

let's chill, we don't need to be going back and forth like this any

:21:52.:21:58.

more". No. (LAUGHTER) Clear answer. I don't think anyone

:21:58.:22:02.

will ask that question again any time soon. In just over a week's

:22:02.:22:08.

time, wrestling will learn if the dream is reinstated at the 2020

:22:08.:22:13.

Olympics. The IOC are set to reveal a shortlist of three sports ahead

:22:13.:22:17.

of a final decision in September. The Wrestling Federation of Russia

:22:17.:22:21.

formed a surprise union with the US and Iranian teams after the sport

:22:21.:22:26.

was axed this year. They feel they've done all they can to earn a

:22:26.:22:30.

reprieve. Wrestling is up against seven sports including karate,

:22:30.:22:34.

squash and climbing for one berth in the Games. TRANSLATION: We tried

:22:34.:22:38.

to do efrlg we could for the IOC and executive committee to listen

:22:38.:22:42.

to us. Times are changing and we do indeed want to keep pace with

:22:42.:22:45.

modern sports and the Olympic movement. We want to live according

:22:45.:22:49.

to the moral principles and for the letter of the IOC. We've tried to

:22:49.:22:55.

do that. I hope we've been heard. Now the end of season playoffs

:22:55.:22:59.

continued on Monday. The Detroit Red Wings hosted the Chicago Black

:22:59.:23:05.

Hawks and took a 2-1 league in the Best of Seven series.

:23:05.:23:13.

After a goalless first period, strikes saw the Red Wings go two-up.

:23:13.:23:17.

Patrick Kane's effort four minutes into the third period reduced

:23:17.:23:25.

Chicago's deficit to one. The hosts had a two-goal lead restored two

minutes' later. The teams will meet again on Thursday.
