:01:19. > :01:24.army has deployed tanks and armoured vehicles outside the

:01:24. > :01:28.Presidential Palace, this, after a night of fierce clashes. The Health

:01:28. > :01:36.Ministry say there are at least five people who have been killed in

:01:36. > :01:41.the clashes. More than 600 have been injured.

:01:42. > :01:47.The political temperature has been steadily rising in Egypt. On

:01:47. > :01:50.Wednesday it reached boiling point. Opposition protestors, who first

:01:50. > :01:56.marched to the Presidential Palace several days ago, I have lengthy

:01:56. > :01:59.clashed with supporters of President Morsi and members of his

:01:59. > :02:04.political party, the Muslim Brotherhood. Riot police were

:02:04. > :02:10.called in, after stones and petrol bombs were thrown and witnesses

:02:10. > :02:14.also reported hearing gunfire. And it is not just Cairo - the Muslim

:02:14. > :02:19.Brotherhood offices were attacked elsewhere.

:02:19. > :02:23.Security forces were deployed to protect the party's offices in the

:02:23. > :02:27.capital. Earlier in the day, activists from the Muslim

:02:27. > :02:31.Brotherhood arrived at the focal point for most of the protestors,

:02:31. > :02:36.Tahrir Square, and began to dismantle the tents of opposition

:02:36. > :02:42.activists who had been there for a fortnight. President Morsi's

:02:42. > :02:45.critics want him to abandon powers he gave to himself. They are

:02:45. > :02:49.calling for the draft constitution, which is being put to a draft

:02:49. > :02:52.constitution later this month, to be dropped, saying the articles are

:02:52. > :02:56.influenced by Sharia law. In the face of several high-profile

:02:56. > :03:02.resignations, there are signs the Government is trying to find a

:03:02. > :03:07.compromise over the constitution, but only after it has been voted on.

:03:07. > :03:11.TRANSLATION: The door is open for people to reach an agreement and to

:03:11. > :03:16.come with initiatives and alternatives. That's not good

:03:16. > :03:19.enough for the opposition, who blamed the strife at the

:03:19. > :03:22.President's door. TRANSLATION: What is happening at

:03:22. > :03:26.the Presidential Palace at the moment - the violence - is an

:03:26. > :03:33.announce frment the country and from the -- and from the country

:03:34. > :03:37.and the President is they do not have this to the protection of the

:03:37. > :03:42.country. Egyptians have suffered much since the Arab Spring first

:03:42. > :03:51.began two years ago. As they take stock on Thursday, many will wonder

:03:51. > :03:56.where they go from here. The next step from the President

:03:56. > :04:00.will be a nation-wide address n which he is expected to call for

:04:00. > :04:06.calm and adialogue with his opponents. Our correspondent in

:04:06. > :04:13.Cairo says this probably will not impress the opposition.

:04:13. > :04:17.They are expecting this statement will not make such a difference.

:04:17. > :04:22.The President has not shown any signs of backing down. Yesterday,

:04:22. > :04:28.they replied to the response from the Vice-President's initiative.

:04:28. > :04:34.They said that they cannot accept this initiative because they said

:04:34. > :04:39.they would ask for the cancellation of the decree that the President

:04:39. > :04:44.issued and said it gave him a lot of sweeping power. They said they

:04:44. > :04:49.want President Morsi to postpone the referendum, which will be held

:04:49. > :04:53.on 15th of this month. Before this, they won't have any dialogue with

:04:53. > :04:58.President Morsi or his Government. So the opposition here see this

:04:58. > :05:01.will not make such a difference. Especially after the bloodshed that

:05:02. > :05:07.continues until the early hours of this morning.

:05:07. > :05:11.It has been confirmed at least 325 people have been killed by Typhoon

:05:11. > :05:16.Bopha. The typhoon which battered the southern Philippines. Another

:05:17. > :05:20.400 or so people are missing. Much of the damage seems to have been

:05:20. > :05:30.concentrated in Compostella Valley, in eastern Mindanao. Aid workers

:05:30. > :05:33.

:05:33. > :05:39.are trying to get to the most Three years old, yet a surviver of

:05:39. > :05:43.the storm with speeds of 200kms per hour. Like many others, he's been

:05:43. > :05:49.badly injured by Typhoon Bopha some people are still being found barely

:05:49. > :05:53.alive among the mud and debris. Amid the relief, there's fresh

:05:53. > :05:59.grief. The dead are also being found in the rubble. Compostella

:05:59. > :06:05.Valley bore the brunt of the typhoon's force. It came through

:06:05. > :06:08.the province, bringing heavy rains and floods across a vast area.

:06:08. > :06:13.Officials are astonished at the scale of the damage. TRANSLATION:

:06:13. > :06:19.We are all surprised. This is the first time we've had a super

:06:19. > :06:24.typhoon like this. For those who survived, makeshift centres in

:06:24. > :06:28.schools and halls provide temporary food and shelter. The survivors

:06:28. > :06:33.face long-term problems too. These banana trees were someone's

:06:33. > :06:38.livelihood. Now they are gone. Along with about 70% of all the

:06:38. > :06:42.crops in this province. Right now, it's the human cost of this

:06:42. > :06:46.disaster that's of utmost concern. From isolated corners of the

:06:46. > :06:53.province, people are still arriving for medical care, food and water

:06:53. > :06:59.and all the time the death toll continues to rise. So a lot of

:06:59. > :07:03.people clearly in need of a lot of help. Joining us is Anna Lindenfors

:07:03. > :07:12.from Save the Children. Anna, thank you for joining us. What is your

:07:12. > :07:17.single biggest challenge at this point? Some of the areas are still

:07:17. > :07:24.isolated due to landslides, so therefore have no electricity. It

:07:24. > :07:29.is very difficult for us to reach them. That is the crucial thing now

:07:29. > :07:35.- water and shelter for the people who are there. I suppose, until you

:07:35. > :07:44.have reached all the isolate areas, we cannot get a full assessment of

:07:44. > :07:50.how damaging this typhoon has proved to be? We have people on the

:07:50. > :07:54.ground for two days. We are starting to get a good picture.

:07:54. > :08:04.Most of the crops have been destroyed. It is likely this will

:08:04. > :08:05.

:08:05. > :08:10.take a long time for people to get back to their normal lives. 25-30%

:08:11. > :08:15.of the kids are normally under weight. In a situation like this,

:08:15. > :08:24.we are very worried about the children, especially the youngest

:08:24. > :08:30.ones. Anna, thank you very much. Sorry for the quality of the line

:08:30. > :08:34.there. It was quite difficult to make out what Anna was saying there.

:08:34. > :08:38.Attempts to hell in the Philippines still going on -- help in the

:08:38. > :08:41.Philippines still going on. The Duchess of Cambridge has been

:08:41. > :08:46.discharged from the King Edward VII Hospital in central London. She has

:08:46. > :08:50.been treated there since Monday for severe morning sickness. Here she

:08:50. > :08:54.is coming out with her bouquet of yellow flowers and of course her

:08:54. > :09:00.husband as well. A brief smile there. Also at the hospital still

:09:00. > :09:07.for us is our correspondent, who has been following these last four

:09:07. > :09:11.days for us. She seemed pretty happy when she left? Yes. A smiling

:09:11. > :09:16.Duchess. I think she looked slightly tentative though.

:09:16. > :09:21.Certainly not the energy that we have become used to seeing when we

:09:21. > :09:26.see the Duchess at various events, but yes, she was smiling and she

:09:26. > :09:29.paused here for a moment or two with Prince William, so that the

:09:30. > :09:35.photographers could take their pictures. I took the opportunity of

:09:35. > :09:41.calling out and asked how she was feeling. She nodded and smiled and

:09:41. > :09:48.said, "skach much better." They were into their car and off to

:09:48. > :09:52.Kensington Palace, where she will be staying to r a period of rest.

:09:52. > :09:56.It has been quite a week. I reported on an event last week in

:09:56. > :10:00.Cambridge. They were very happy, very relaxed. That is when I think

:10:01. > :10:05.the speculation began behind the scenes that a baby might be on the

:10:05. > :10:08.horizon, because Prince William was given a baby grow by a member of

:10:08. > :10:12.the public and seemed delighted with and asked his aid to keep for

:10:12. > :10:15.him. I think there was a lot of surprise on Monday when the

:10:16. > :10:21.announcement was made officially that not only was the Duchess

:10:21. > :10:26.expecting a child, but she had been admitted here, to the King Edward

:10:26. > :10:30.VII Hospital, suffering with this severe form of morning sickness. It

:10:30. > :10:34.seems she must have fallen ill over the weekend when she was staying

:10:34. > :10:39.with her parents in Berkshire, in the countryside, because on Friday

:10:39. > :10:43.we had seen her running around a hockey pitch in high heels at her

:10:43. > :10:47.old school. So, certainly no indication then that she was

:10:47. > :10:52.expecting, let alone that she was feeling under the weather. And here,

:10:52. > :10:56.there must have been a period of concern for the couple, because not

:10:56. > :11:01.only is this their first pregnancy, but she has been suffering with

:11:01. > :11:06.this condition and then the added stress of having to come public

:11:06. > :11:11.with this pregnancy before the crucial 12-week point of the

:11:11. > :11:15.pregnancy itself. So, a concerning time, I think, for them. Yes,

:11:15. > :11:20.confirmation from the hospital that a radio station in Australia had

:11:20. > :11:25.succeeded in making a prank call to a duty nurse. Quite a rollercoaster

:11:25. > :11:28.for the royal couple these last few days. Finally she has been

:11:28. > :11:35.discharged and she certainly looked quite healthy.

:11:35. > :11:42.Thank you very much indeed. Aaron Heslehurst is here. It is the

:11:42. > :11:49.battle of the giant, Apple verses Samsung - �1 billion on the table.

:11:49. > :11:55.She can talk, can't she! Boy! The smartphone Titans are at it. They

:11:55. > :11:59.are back into court today. Back in August, a jury bay licksy agreed

:11:59. > :12:07.with Apple and said Samsung has infringed on your patents, they

:12:07. > :12:11.awarded, the jury awarded Apple �1 billion, to be paid for by Samsung.

:12:11. > :12:16.No surprises, they want the judge to overturn that verdict or reduce

:12:16. > :12:21.the damages. Apple wants the judge to increase the damages and also

:12:21. > :12:26.ban some of the smartphones. What is interesting behind this is high

:12:26. > :12:32.the judge is reviewing it. According to Samsung, the foreman

:12:32. > :12:36.of the jury, they say acted with deliberate dishonesty. They are

:12:36. > :12:44.saying this member of the jury didn't tell them 20 years ago he

:12:44. > :12:48.was part of a lawsuit against a company. That resulted in a company

:12:48. > :12:52.having to have bankruptcy. Samsung was the minority stakeholder. What

:12:52. > :12:58.is interesting also is the ebgts perts have been telling us this bat

:12:58. > :13:06.-- experts have been telling us this is not just Apple and Samsung.

:13:06. > :13:12.It is a bigger tech battle. What is happening now has more to do with

:13:13. > :13:17.Apple and Google waging a proxy war. Google makes no money off of

:13:17. > :13:23.Android, but they can go after the manufacturer, who by manufacturing

:13:23. > :13:28.handsets are making money. Others and Google are playing this secret

:13:28. > :13:33.chess game. OK, let's move on. It would help if I had my microphone

:13:33. > :13:37.on. Hopefully you can hear me better now.

:13:37. > :13:40.A deepening recession - it holds its monthly policy meeting later

:13:40. > :13:50.this Thursday. You may remember back in September, it predicted the

:13:50. > :13:57.economy in the region would shrink by half of 1% this year. Now it may

:13:57. > :14:00.say there'll be no growth in 2013. This will be bad news for small and

:14:00. > :14:06.medium-sized companies struggling to survive in a deepening recession

:14:06. > :14:10.and find banks will not lend them money. The boss said banks were

:14:10. > :14:15.failing to do their basic job. banks they are getting revitalised

:14:15. > :14:21.on one hand. They are getting money from the central bank, but they do

:14:21. > :14:26.not use it to perform the basic task, which is lending to

:14:26. > :14:34.businesses. That is why there is a credit crunch. There is not a lack

:14:34. > :14:42.of money, there is a lack of credit. Therefore, even a supervision

:14:43. > :14:47.procedure of how banks act in the market, it is required. Some other

:14:47. > :14:50.business stories - Rolls Royce says it has passed information to

:14:50. > :14:57.Britain's Serious Fraud Office relating to concerns about bribery

:14:57. > :15:02.and corruption overseas. We are talking about the world's number

:15:02. > :15:12.two. Rolls Royce requested information about malpractice in

:15:12. > :15:19.Indonesia and China. Standard Chartered will pay to settle a --

:15:19. > :15:28.settlement. It is on top of the $450 million it paid to New York's

:15:28. > :15:31.financial services in the third China makes products from mobile

:15:31. > :15:36.phones to televisions and computer products, but often it's for

:15:36. > :15:39.foreign companies. One Chinese brand is trying to challenge that.

:15:40. > :15:47.Lenovo. They've just overtaken Hewlett-Packard to become the

:15:47. > :15:55.world's biggest seller of personal computers. Rory Cellan-Jones sent

:15:55. > :16:00.China, A Place In Love With Technology, where millions of

:16:00. > :16:04.consumers are desperate to have the latest gadgets. Foreign brands like

:16:04. > :16:08.Apple and Samsung are hugely popular here. The biggest force in

:16:08. > :16:11.personal computers is now our home- grown company. Lenovo has just

:16:11. > :16:16.overtaken HP, Hewlett-Packard, to become the world's biggest seller

:16:16. > :16:23.of PCs. Now the company wants to become a global household name.

:16:23. > :16:26.goal is one day Lenovo can be recognised as one of the most

:16:26. > :16:30.valuable brands in the world. the Beijing headquarters, an

:16:30. > :16:33.exhibition describes the history of a company that began in a post from

:16:34. > :16:39.a 1984, then made a great leap forward eight years ago when it

:16:39. > :16:47.bought IBM's PC business. But all- conquering Lenovo still lacks one

:16:48. > :16:52.thing, the cool factor. And this is the man supposed to change all that.

:16:52. > :17:02.Dawdle Dyer is the head of design. When he talks about a product, it

:17:02. > :17:05.is from an executive, not a Lenovo man. -- Yao Yingjia. It really

:17:05. > :17:11.touches the customer, the demotion. The want me to get emotional about

:17:11. > :17:15.your products? Absolutely. This new flagship store seems strangely

:17:15. > :17:19.reminiscent of Apple's retail operation, although the crowds are

:17:19. > :17:23.yet to arrive. I've been using a popular Chinese social media site

:17:23. > :17:29.and have just posted a picture I took at Lenovo's headquarters. The

:17:29. > :17:34.company has this philosophy called before P's. Plan, perform,

:17:34. > :17:38.prioritise and practice, but recently its added pioneer, pioneer

:17:38. > :17:43.new ideas. Lenovo are no longer wants to be seen as just a copycat

:17:43. > :17:47.business. How is that going? In a Beijing apartment we assembled a

:17:47. > :17:52.trio of gadget fans to find out if they saw Lenovo as an innovator.

:17:52. > :17:56.They brought along their favourite devices, but all were made by big,

:17:56. > :18:02.foreign brands. And you never show your friend a Lenovo product and

:18:02. > :18:05.say, look at my Lenovo product! would brag about it but a me

:18:05. > :18:09.because of the Chinese product. We have lower standards for home-made

:18:09. > :18:15.products. Back in the store, I tried out a new Lenovo gadget

:18:15. > :18:20.rather similar to Microsoft's X-Box Kinect, which is banned from China.

:18:20. > :18:23.Lenovo has grown mostly by building on American innovations. Now in the

:18:23. > :18:33.fast-moving battle for consumers, it needs to show it's got some

:22:33. > :22:37.the only case so far were the courts have actually ascribe

:22:37. > :22:41.responsibility for any of those deaths. This has been the source of

:23:20. > :23:25.go to those who issued the orders. Those responsible were the Prime

:23:25. > :23:28.Minister and his deputy, who was in charge of the committee that was

:23:28. > :23:33.overseeing this state of emergency at the time. They are saying it was

:23:33. > :23:36.only natural for the charge to follow that court case. The

:23:36. > :23:39.supporters are crying foul, saying the whole thing is politically

:23:39. > :23:45.charged. Ultimately they believe the police are now under the

:23:45. > :23:49.influence of the current government, which has led 5 Thaksin Shinawatra,

:23:49. > :23:52.the man who was supported by those protesters. It's a politically

:23:52. > :23:56.charged atmosphere and, frankly, it's impossible to imagine any

:23:56. > :24:00.legal case going forward that will not be condemned by one side or the

:24:00. > :24:06.other. This is the first charge relating to those deaths, the first

:24:07. > :24:09.murder charge. It's got about as high as it can. Rescue teams

:24:09. > :24:13.searching for seven missing sailors in the North Sea say the body of

:24:13. > :24:16.one man has been spotted in the water. They say it's very unlikely

:24:16. > :24:20.the others will be found alive because of the poor weather

:24:20. > :24:24.conditions. Four other crew members have already been found dead. This

:24:24. > :24:29.is after two cargo ships collided off the Netherlands Belgium Coast.

:24:29. > :24:33.One vessel, the Baltic Ace, which was carrying cars, has sunk. The

:24:33. > :24:38.second ship was not badly damaged. Three Dutch teenagers are appearing

:24:38. > :24:44.in court in connection with the death of a football linesman, after

:24:44. > :24:47.an amateur football match. He had been acting in a game between his

:24:47. > :24:50.son's team and an Amsterdam club. He had gone on to the pitch to

:24:50. > :24:57.shake hands when he was surrounded and kicked in the head by a group

:24:57. > :25:01.of players. His son witnessed the attack. Two 15 year-olds and a 16-

:25:01. > :25:05.year-old were arrested. Right, too late challenge that's been named

:25:05. > :25:11.the coldest journey. It involves six months of crossing hostile

:25:11. > :25:18.terrain in temperatures as low as minus 90 Celsius. From the Thames

:25:18. > :25:24.at the Tower to one of the most inhospitable places on earth. For

:25:24. > :25:27.some Ranulph Fiennes, this is an immense challenge. You go up 10,000

:25:27. > :25:31.ft through the Carreras to the south pole and then take a dog-leg

:25:32. > :25:39.that way, a 10,000 ft drop, over this huge eyes shaft where captain

:25:39. > :25:43.Scott died 100 years ago, and then to the coastline here. We filmed

:25:44. > :25:49.them training for this back in February, close to the Arctic

:25:49. > :25:54.Circle. Two men will ski upfront, checking for crevasses. Behind them,

:25:54. > :25:59.in the near permanent darkness, two bulldozers will drag their supplies.

:25:59. > :26:03.And here they are being loaded on board. To get the permit to attempt

:26:03. > :26:08.this, the team has to be self- sufficient. Dragging their supplies

:26:08. > :26:13.is the only way they can guarantee that. Those bulldozers are going to

:26:13. > :26:19.drag three of these huge sledges. On top of the sledges are going to

:26:20. > :26:23.be three shipping containers, modified. This one is a science lab

:26:23. > :26:27.and two of them have living quarters inside. If anything goes

:26:27. > :26:31.wrong on this most dangerous of journeys, living inside these could

:26:31. > :26:35.save their lives. The vehicles are a bigger potential problem than the

:26:35. > :26:39.people. Minus 80 could be damaged to lung tissue when you are

:26:39. > :26:43.breathing in and skiing, but in the vehicle's YouGov steel and rubber
