cold front slit southwards through Paris, bringing some rain, and then

:00:30.:00:34.

in Berlin as well. To the north of that, very windy conditions across

:00:35.:00:39.

Scandinavia and towards the Baltic Sea as well. Much lighter winds and

:00:40.:00:41.

a good deal of sunshine further south. Pretty good for Cyprus, the

Greek islands and across Italy, and for Spain and Portugal with a good

:00:48.:00:51.

deal of sunshine to end the week as well. Back on our shores, the

:00:52.:00:55.

weekend looking breezy with the best of the sunshine further east and

:00:56.:00:56.

rain coming into the West. Hello, I'm Philippa Thomas,

:00:57.:01:11.

this is Outside Source. Let's look through some of the main

:01:12.:01:13.

stories here in the BBC newsroom. At least one person has died

:01:14.:01:16.

and more than a hundred more are injured after a commuter train

live in Canada ahead of the final. Russia says it will carry on bombing

:01:44.:02:04.

rebel-held eastern Aleppo in Syria, On Wednesday two hospitals

:02:05.:02:07.

in the city were hit, and we have pictures

:02:08.:02:12.

showing the state of affairs John Sweeney has been looking

:02:13.:02:14.

through the footage, and I should warn you

:02:15.:02:19.

it's distressing. Imagine if your local hospital

:02:20.:02:27.

looked like this. No water,

:02:28.:02:32.

no time to clean up the blood, and where the living

:02:33.:02:35.

live cheek by jowl with the dead. This is Aleppo under siege

:02:36.:02:39.

in an underground hospital. The war in Syria gets more

:02:40.:02:48.

pitiless by the day, Blast from a bomb caused concrete

:02:49.:02:50.

to fall on the hospital's intensive care unit and

:02:51.:02:58.

knocked out its oxygen generator. On Sunday, cluster bombs, some

:02:59.:03:05.

with Russian manufacturer's marks, The hospital had 180 patients,

:03:06.:03:07.

ten of whom died. On Monday, 27 patients died,

:03:08.:03:14.

amongst them seven children. We can't check those numbers, but

:03:15.:03:19.

these images are not make-believe. This is brain surgery

:03:20.:03:26.

carried out on the floor because all the other beds

:03:27.:03:29.

in intensive care have been taken. it fires out ball bearings

:03:30.:03:44.

in all directions. One ended up here, according to this

:03:45.:03:52.

X-ray, in this little boy's spine. A second came through

the back of this boy's head Mustafa works for BBC Arabic

and comes from Aleppo. He watched the footage

:04:09.:04:18.

we've been sent. What's it like being a patient

:04:19.:04:21.

inside this hospital? You have a very slim chance

:04:22.:04:27.

to survive, because of the number of casualties

:04:28.:04:30.

and injuries is so huge, They leave the injured

:04:31.:04:33.

and the casualties on the floor, and they have to take care

:04:34.:04:41.

of the people That is the only way

:04:42.:04:43.

they can operate. And don't forget, they are under

:04:44.:04:47.

constant bombardment. Some of the images I've been sent

:04:48.:04:52.

from Aleppo just cannot be shown. The next picture is of,

:04:53.:04:57.

I think, a child. It's a mess of blood and concrete,

:04:58.:05:01.

the head may be decapitated. It's one of the worst things

:05:02.:05:11.

I've ever seen, and We are not showing you

:05:12.:05:13.

the full horror of this more. The news from the hospital

:05:14.:05:25.

is not all bleak. Two weeks ago, a world first

:05:26.:05:29.

operation - using Skype, a surgeon in David London

:05:30.:05:32.

directed his colleagues in Aleppo The life of this patient,

:05:33.:05:35.

and the children with ball bearings in their bodies, are in the hands

:05:36.:05:53.

of the doctors of Aleppo. Distressing story there brought to

:05:54.:06:03.

us by John Sweeney. A study has found that a small

:06:04.:06:10.

proportion of children with the HIV virus do not develop Aids,

:06:11.:06:14.

even when they get no treatment. Researchers analysed the blood

:06:15.:06:16.

of 170 such children in South Africa and found that one in ten of them

:06:17.:06:19.

did not get Aids. The whole study can be found online

:06:20.:06:22.

through the article on our website. Our health and science reporter

:06:23.:06:25.

James Gallagher told us more about what looks

:06:26.:06:28.

like a rather positive development. because 60% of children that have

:06:29.:06:31.

HIV and aren't treated for it, they will be dead

:06:32.:06:37.

within a couple of years. However, this percentage of people

:06:38.:06:40.

seem to do incredibly well, and what seems to happen,

:06:41.:06:44.

inside their bodies, it's teeming with HIV, but their

:06:45.:06:48.

bodies aren't really reacting to it, their immune system

:06:49.:06:51.

is largely ignoring it. And counterintuitively,

:06:52.:06:53.

remember, HIV is a virus that finishes off your immune system,

:06:54.:06:58.

that is what Aids is, Basically, not attacking the virus

:06:59.:07:01.

seems to protect the immune system and stops exposing it to the virus

:07:02.:07:04.

and allows it to continue to work. That is really important for doctors

:07:05.:07:08.

to know, particularly with children, who may have a more

:07:09.:07:10.

flexible immune system? Exactly, they seem to have

:07:11.:07:13.

a more tolerant immune system. We see this in other diseases,

:07:14.:07:16.

if you think, children have chickenpox, it is not pleasant,

:07:17.:07:19.

but if an adult has chickenpox, it is a really nasty infection,

:07:20.:07:21.

and it does kill some adults. So we know their immune system gets

:07:22.:07:24.

more aggressive as we get older. So does seem to be something unique

:07:25.:07:27.

to children, and the hope is that, by understanding this,

:07:28.:07:31.

they might be able to come up with new therapies that will help

:07:32.:07:33.

all patients with HIV. It helps us understand

:07:34.:07:38.

something more about HIV, that it is not about the virus

:07:39.:07:40.

per se, it is about how your immune system reacts to it

:07:41.:07:44.

that does the damage. Exactly, you could have one child

:07:45.:07:47.

who will die because their immune system has tried to fight it off

:07:48.:07:54.

and the virus has eventually won, whereas another child, their immune

:07:55.:07:58.

system does not react to it, It is a very unusual,

:07:59.:08:00.

I say counterintuitive, But actually, if you look

:08:01.:08:03.

what happens in primates, and they have had hundreds

:08:04.:08:09.

of thousands of years evolving with their version

:08:10.:08:11.

of the human immunodeficiency virus, the simian immunodeficiency virus,

:08:12.:08:13.

they do exactly the same thing. It's just a chronic infection

:08:14.:08:19.

that doesn't kill them because they have learned

:08:20.:08:21.

to live with it, and that what these

:08:22.:08:23.

children seem to be doing. Now, September is not

:08:24.:08:26.

normally a time sports but tonight in Toronto it's the

:08:27.:08:28.

final of the World Cup of Hockey. Heavily favoured Canada

:08:29.:08:33.

puts their undefeated record We'll be talking to one writer

:08:34.:08:34.

following this tournament. You know, we've got to improve

:08:35.:08:41.

again, and play our best game. You know, this game

:08:42.:08:48.

is the hardest one to win, the clinching game, and it's not

:08:49.:08:50.

going to be any different. I think what would be the purpose

:08:51.:08:54.

if you wouldn't believe in success? So you have to believe,

:08:55.:09:02.

you have to have the right approach, the right mindset and, you know,

:09:03.:09:05.

it's a best of three, so we really have to focus on

:09:06.:09:07.

our game tomorrow and give it all. James Mirtle is a hockey writer

for the Globe and Mail. thanks for joining us on OS, Canada

:09:20.:09:32.

is undefeated underwent undefeated in the Olympics, what can we expect

:09:33.:09:38.

from tonight's game? A lot of people here are expecting that Canada is

:09:39.:09:41.

going to win, and this will be a coronation of Canada as the best

:09:42.:09:45.

hockey nation in the world again. And you know, there have been a lot

:09:46.:09:50.

of lopsided games involving Canada, and they have got the best roster by

:09:51.:09:55.

far, so I think the fans are probably going to get what they want

:09:56.:09:59.

here. I just want to show our viewers an article you have written,

:10:00.:10:05.

see if we can bring up the story online, the biggest flaw of the

:10:06.:10:10.

tournament? Canada is just too good. Why, then, is that bad for

:10:11.:10:15.

international hockey? Well, it is bad because the outcome continues to

:10:16.:10:21.

be the same, Canada is 17-1 in international best on best play in

:10:22.:10:24.

the last ten years, they have only lost once in the decade of hockey.

:10:25.:10:29.

Their roster is such that their fourth line forwards is as good as

:10:30.:10:34.

most team's first line. They have so much depth, it is not a very

:10:35.:10:39.

competitive tournament. Everyone went into this event expecting

:10:40.:10:42.

Canada to dominate, and that is exactly what has happened. It is a

:10:43.:10:46.

foregone conclusion that they will win tonight. Tell us more about the

:10:47.:10:51.

tournament, it has been revived, because NHL players do not yet have

:10:52.:10:55.

a deal for taking part in the Winter Olympics, so is this building that

:10:56.:11:01.

whole? It might, it might end up filling that. NHL is worried about

:11:02.:11:08.

Olympic participation, that it might not come together, the International

:11:09.:11:11.

Olympic Committee has said they do not want to pay the insurers gusts

:11:12.:11:19.

and travel gusts for these players. -- costs. So there has been a

:11:20.:11:24.

dispute and going for years about how the NHL might participate, and

:11:25.:11:30.

this World Cup has not been held in 12 years, they were hoping to revive

:11:31.:11:34.

some interest in their own tournament, so they could control

:11:35.:11:37.

all of the costs and revenues obviously, and benefit from that,

:11:38.:11:40.

which is something they do not benefit from at the Olympics. Thanks

:11:41.:11:43.

very much for joining us. All week we've been reporting

:11:44.:11:45.

on Sam Allardyce, who left the England manager job

:11:46.:11:46.

for inappropriate conduct, following secret filming

:11:47.:11:49.

that showed him offering advice to businessmen on how to get around

:11:50.:11:51.

rules on player transfers. Now the speculation

:11:52.:11:54.

is about his replacement. Here's what veteran

:11:55.:11:57.

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger said when he was asked

:11:58.:11:59.

about the position. My priority has always been this

:12:00.:12:11.

club, and until the end of this season I am here. And I am

:12:12.:12:21.

completely focused on that. Do you know the words to God Save The Queen

Sentences? Yes! I Know! Gary Johnson, the Libertarian

candidate for the US presidency, This time he failed to name

a world leader on live TV. Research in England

:12:33.:12:41.

has shown a sharp rise in the number of young women

:12:42.:12:43.

suffering mental-health problems. New figures have revealed

:12:44.:12:47.

one in four 16 to 24-year-olds

:12:48.:12:49.

reported symptoms. Young women are seen

:12:50.:12:51.

as a high-risk group, according to this comprehensive

:12:52.:13:02.

new survey for England, and Alice Thompson, who's 17,

:13:03.:13:05.

can vouch for that. She's suffered

:13:06.:13:08.

from mental-health problems, including anxiety,

:13:09.:13:09.

self-harm and eating disorders. but says that her conditions

:13:10.:13:13.

have been overwhelming. Anxiety feels like you're

:13:14.:13:18.

in a stream or even an ocean, and there's just waves

:13:19.:13:22.

crashing at you constantly, and you're treading water,

:13:23.:13:27.

and the more you tread water, because you just get tired

:13:28.:13:37.

and you get lethargic and you just end

:13:38.:13:42.

up drowning eventually. The mental-health survey

:13:43.:13:44.

covering England, carried out every seven years,

:13:45.:13:45.

highlights important trends. 21% of women experienced symptoms

:13:46.:13:47.

of mental illness in 2007. In contrast, 11.9% of men

:13:48.:13:52.

experienced symptoms in 2007, With self-harm,

:13:53.:14:00.

there's a widening gap, with 11.7% of women in 2007

:14:01.:14:08.

saying they'd self-harmed, and a slower increase

:14:09.:14:11.

to 7.9% by 2014. The report's authors say it's

:14:12.:14:24.

not their job to look for causes, but the growth in social media

:14:25.:14:30.

is probably part of the story, with teenagers feeling

:14:31.:14:33.

under more peer-group pressure and potentially being vulnerable

:14:34.:14:36.

to online bullying. This is the first cohort to come

:14:37.:14:38.

of age in a context of social media. We don't yet understand

:14:39.:14:42.

what social media means for the mental health of people

as they enter adulthood. This is something that perhaps

There are only six countries in the world where abortion

:17:08.:17:10.

is completely illegal, and a woman can be prosecuted

:17:11.:17:12.

for having a termination, no matter what the circumstances.

:17:13.:17:14.

The nation's first female president is trying to change that

:17:15.:17:18.

by proposing a bill which would allow abortion in limited cases.

:17:19.:17:21.

As the BBC's Reeta Chakrabarti reports from Santiago,

:17:22.:17:26.

Michelle Bachelet is facing stiff opposition to her ideas.

:17:27.:17:37.

Chile is a sophisticated nation with some old attitudes. Abortion is

:17:38.:17:45.

completely band, forcing women into terrible dilemmas. There are private

:17:46.:17:50.

clinics and black-market rogues, but not for the poor. Pro-choice groups

:17:51.:17:56.

in shock campaign videos say a DIY abortion is their only option.

:17:57.:18:07.

I spoke to two women who found they were both carrying foetuses with no

:18:08.:18:17.

possibility of survival. Neither was allowed an abortion. Doctors told

:18:18.:18:21.

Paolo to pray. Both had to carry their babies for months and give

:18:22.:18:23.

birth to them without any hope they would live.

:18:24.:18:30.

TRANSLATION: I felt like a zombie, like the walking dead, we have to

:18:31.:18:34.

get up every day without wanting to live. It was torture. For my part, I

:18:35.:18:42.

feel powerless. Having to live through this process, after having

:18:43.:18:47.

my daughter declared unviable. I suffered unnecessarily, not just me,

:18:48.:18:50.

but my family as well, until this day.

:18:51.:18:56.

Presidents Michelle Bachelet is on a mission to change things. Previous

:18:57.:19:00.

governments have tried, but her bill to allow abortion in some cases has

:19:01.:19:04.

gone much further than any other and has majority public support. I told

:19:05.:19:09.

her what had happened to Paola and Andrei. I think it is awful. It is

:19:10.:19:14.

awful because I have friends who have gone through the process. And

:19:15.:19:20.

usually it emotionally destroys the person. There are some people who

:19:21.:19:25.

might be able to live with it, and that is OK. But there are other

:19:26.:19:30.

people who really destroyed emotionally afterwards, and our

:19:31.:19:33.

lives are changed forever. So that is why we do believe that they

:19:34.:19:40.

should have the possibility. But change is slow, and the bill is

:19:41.:19:45.

limited in its scope. It only allows for abortion in three particular

:19:46.:19:49.

circumstances - if a woman's life is in danger, if the pregnancy is the

:19:50.:19:53.

result of a rape, or if the baby has no chance of survival. None of this

:19:54.:19:59.

goes down well with the Church, which fears the bill could

:20:00.:20:02.

eventually a share in abortion on demand. Many of its flock agree.

:20:03.:20:12.

Gloria was raped as a child by a cousin and was pregnant at just 12.

The family arranged for a Asian, which she says she has never

:20:18.:20:23.

recovered from. -- a termination. TRANSLATION: If I had a choice, I

:20:24.:20:27.

would have had my daughter, but it was not by choice. Abortion scars

:20:28.:20:33.

you for life, before and after. It scars you, negatively, for life, and

:20:34.:20:38.

nothing good comes out of abortion, not thing. -- nothing. Their church

bill. Gloria tried to take a own life several times, and the church

:20:53.:20:56.

has proved a haven. A typical service here is as much rock and

:20:57.:20:58.

roll as religion. The message on abortion is clear.

:20:59.:21:14.

Michelle Bachelet wants to change both the law and entrenched

:21:15.:21:17.

attitudes in this male dominated society. Women are seen as citizens

:21:18.:21:24.

of second-class and not full citizens. She faces political as

:21:25.:21:28.

well as social challenges, but Chile could now be on the cusp of giving

:21:29.:21:33.

its women the choice is their mothers were denied. Reeta

Chakrabarti, BBC News, Santiago. "Part of the beauty of me

:21:36.:21:38.

is that I'm very rich," he's much less rich now

:21:42.:21:45.
