:00:08. > :00:17.Hello. Our top stories... What value Twitter? The microblogging

:01:16. > :01:26.stock market debut later. This is the cheeky bird with a cheeky bid

:01:27. > :01:34.price. It has the tech world buzzing. The price is pretty good.

:01:35. > :01:35.$26 a share. That is higher than expected. Originally the idea was

:01:36. > :01:45.going to be arranged between expected. Originally the idea was

:01:46. > :01:53.$22 a share. That is what will cost you to buy a share in Twitter. The

:01:54. > :01:57.company is valued at $18 billion. This company has never made a

:01:58. > :02:03.profit but people think there is great potential in this company. I

:02:04. > :02:22.was asking the tech experts this morning on my

:02:23. > :02:29.was asking the tech experts this hovering around the 50 dollar mark.

:02:30. > :02:38.It is worth making that comparison last year. It dropped very quickly.

:02:39. > :02:48.It was like a stone. The company started making money from

:02:49. > :02:54.advertising and they are doing well. They had to do well on mobile

:02:55. > :02:59.advertising. They use the site on the go. They had to be aggressive

:03:00. > :03:04.in mobile advertising and revenues increase. They are making money. To

:03:05. > :03:08.be clear, what a Twitter saying about where they will manner tyres

:03:09. > :03:32.and make a profit? That is the big about where they will manner tyres

:03:33. > :03:37.what they lost at the same time last year. The losses are deepening.

:03:38. > :03:42.People believe the potential is here and Twitter will become very

:03:43. > :03:46.aggressive in the advertising and the whole business model of making

:03:47. > :03:51.a buck. Potentially they think it could become an internet utility

:03:52. > :03:58.just like Google, Facebook and Amazon. You have to make an

:03:59. > :04:09.impartial reminder now. You can follow me on Twitter. Tweet me and

:04:10. > :04:19.I will treat you back. Nick has a Twitter as well.

:04:20. > :04:22.Riot police in Greece have stormed the headquarters of the former

:04:23. > :04:45.state broadcaster, ERT, to evict the headquarters of the former

:04:46. > :04:49.eviction. It all began at 4:30am when riot police and the public

:04:50. > :04:53.prosecutor turned up at the headquarters in northern Athens.

:04:54. > :04:57.They used tear gas in order to clear the entrance to the enclosure

:04:58. > :05:02.into the building. Once inside it was relatively peaceful. They led

:05:03. > :05:07.occupying staff out. Three refuse to go and they were arrested the

:05:08. > :05:14.start they have been released. They are outside the building. --

:05:15. > :05:19.arrested. There were a riot police bans. Protesters have already

:05:20. > :05:24.gathered. There were calls for a wider protest. I spoke to an

:05:25. > :05:29.employee inside the building. He said he was still there because he

:05:30. > :05:30.was showing police around. He expects to be arrested in the next

:05:31. > :05:51.few hours. Her wind expects to be arrested in the next

:06:01. > :06:04.-- beat sudden closure of the broadcaster.

:06:05. > :06:12.Even though it was not loved by Greeks, it only had the 10%

:06:13. > :06:18.audience share, it was seen as a Greek institution. Imagine how you

:06:19. > :06:24.would feel if the BBC were suddenly closed down within a day. 200 staff

:06:25. > :06:30.remain inside the headquarters broadcasting online. The Government

:06:31. > :06:33.has set up an interim broadcaster and there will be in the one next

:07:01. > :07:13.sanctions. Our Iran correspondent has more. Here in Geneva, the lake

:07:14. > :07:17.is clear. The air is clear. Over the next two days, nuclear

:07:18. > :07:23.negotiators may find that everything else they based in this

:07:24. > :07:29.city is cloudy and uncertain. -- they face. Nuclear negotiators are

:07:30. > :07:38.getting into the details of the Iranian nuclear programme. The

:07:39. > :07:43.Foreign Minister said his ideas have not been made public. The

:07:44. > :07:49.world powers get their turn to make the demand. They want Iraq to stop

:07:50. > :07:52.what it is doing. They have not explained what this means.

:07:53. > :08:11.Practically it may be a explained what this means.

:08:12. > :08:13.-- two days to reach an agreement. A short while ago I spoke with

:08:14. > :08:15.Professor Anoush Ehteshami from the University of Durham. He is

:08:16. > :08:22.Professor of International Relations and Director of the Al-

:08:23. > :08:25.Sabah Programme there. I started by asking him if anything had changed

:08:26. > :08:28.in the Iranian position in the last six weeks since the extraordinary

:08:29. > :08:31.serious of developments and moves by the new president while in New

:08:32. > :08:34.York. That in itself is a big change. All of the body language of

:08:35. > :08:52.the grant is different. Also what it says is very different. They are

:08:53. > :08:58.talking about dialogue. Three developments going on.

:08:59. > :09:01.Announcements are important for us but it is trying to underpin

:09:02. > :09:22.negotiations with a broader easier access for inspectors to

:09:23. > :09:31.have technical meetings with Iranian officials. The third

:09:32. > :09:36.dimension is Geneva. Only a few weeks later we are sitting around

:09:37. > :09:43.the same table. They speak the language of the five plus one.

:09:44. > :09:49.They're going in for a deal rather than procrastinating and wanting to

:09:50. > :09:54.delay a deal. The atmospherics are different. As to whether we can do

:09:55. > :09:59.this in a week, I'm sceptical about that. There are so many unknown but

:10:00. > :10:04.also known difficult elements which have to be cleared up. Setting the

:10:05. > :10:08.stage right is the first step was that it would take a long while pop

:10:45. > :10:49.former Palestinian leader has called for immediate action after a

:10:50. > :10:59.scientific report claimed he may have been poisoned. Tests on the

:11:00. > :11:04.remains showed high levels of polonium. Israel denies allegations

:11:05. > :11:09.against it. Police in Detroit say a shooting at a barber shop has left

:11:10. > :11:17.two people dead and five others wounded. This happened on the

:12:18. > :12:21.the River Ganges and offered prayers during a sacred Hindu

:12:25. > :12:28.their paces at the Indian Military Academy in the city of Dehradun.

:12:58. > :13:02.first stop in a nine-day tour of India. In a water blessing ceremony,

:13:03. > :13:09.they made an offering before a large globe. The press here is for

:13:10. > :13:15.all creatures to have access to sufficient and safe water. The

:13:16. > :13:20.Hindu guru led the royals through the sacred ceremonies. He is also

:13:21. > :13:25.the founder of an organisation involving scientists and

:13:26. > :13:29.environmentalists to clean the water of the Ganges. This was

:13:30. > :13:35.poignant to Prince Charles. His main interests include preservation

:13:36. > :13:38.and raising awareness of dangers to their natural environment. The

:14:01. > :14:05.Scientists in Utah have discovered an ancient relative of

:14:06. > :14:08.Tyrannosaurus Rex. Palaeontologists from the state's university say the

:14:09. > :14:12.creature is in evolutionary terms, the great uncle of T Rex. It lived

:14:13. > :14:18.about ten million years before its famous descendant. It stood on two

:14:19. > :14:21.legs, had huge knife-like teeth, a thick skull and forward-facing eyes

:14:22. > :14:25.for hunting its prey. It measured 7.5 metres long. The research team

:14:26. > :14:36.believe it would have been the top predator in its environment.

:15:14. > :15:18.alone. Thousands have been evacuated from their home in the centre of the

:15:19. > :15:22.country, including some of the areas hit by an earthquake last month. The

:15:23. > :15:27.Typhoon is eight category five storm. Authorities say they have to

:15:28. > :15:37.take action to avoid expensive damage.

:15:38. > :15:40.Warning announcements boom across the streets as Philippine

:15:41. > :15:49.authorities gear up to face another Typhoon. Schools have been closed

:15:50. > :15:57.and transport services halted and homes evacuated to avoid potential

:15:58. > :16:00.loss of life. In the densely populated southern districts, many

:16:01. > :16:02.families have taken shelter in a sports hall. We are

:16:03. > :16:22.families have taken shelter in a earthquake, including the worst hurt

:16:23. > :16:26.island of Bohol. The military says that troops are distributed food aid

:16:27. > :16:29.and rescue helicopters are on stand-by. But authorities have

:16:30. > :16:34.warned people to brace for the worse.

:16:35. > :16:39.-- braced for the worst. To the Ludwig Torch, which has arrived at

:16:40. > :16:44.the International Space Station. It is the next stage of preparations in

:16:45. > :16:57.Russia for the socially Winter games. -- Sochi. At short time ago,

:16:58. > :17:06.there was an immaculately performed Lodge -- linking with the other

:17:07. > :17:10.craft. As the astronauts boarded the

:17:11. > :17:29.rocket, they posed for pictures with a replica of the torch. The one they

:17:30. > :17:32.rocket, they posed for pictures with And there it goes, roaring off on

:17:33. > :17:37.its way to the International Space Station with the Olympic torch on

:17:38. > :17:41.board. It is so loud and you can feel it in your stomach. It is a

:17:42. > :17:49.dramatic reminder of Russia's leading role in manned space flight.

:17:50. > :17:52.Everything went well at the launch and soon the torch was on its way

:17:53. > :17:57.into orbit. The journey to the International Space Station takes

:17:58. > :18:03.around six hours. What we're doing, the cosmonauts will go to outer

:18:04. > :18:11.space with the torch. This particular torch will be the exact

:18:12. > :18:20.device which will lead the Olympic flame and light the cauldron in the

:18:21. > :18:22.opening ceremony in 2014. As well as going into space, the torch

:18:23. > :18:41.opening ceremony in 2014. As well as in Moscow, it was President Putin

:18:42. > :18:47.who took centre stage, rather than the athletes. He is also using the

:18:48. > :18:59.games to reassert himself as the leader of the country.

:19:00. > :19:05.But a flame that we will not see in space. The world is tackling climate

:19:06. > :19:09.change, and the UK's official body, the committee on climate change,

:19:10. > :19:13.which looks at climate change, says that the world is working together

:19:14. > :19:17.at last to tackle climate change. But it admits that the cuts are well

:19:18. > :19:19.short of what scientists say is needed to stabilise the climate.

:19:20. > :19:27.Some countries are taking greater steps. Norway is an example.

:19:28. > :19:30.Beneath this unremarkable hill in Norway's capital, lies a most

:19:31. > :19:49.remarkable project. Norway's capital, lies a most

:19:50. > :19:55.sewage and using it to warm people's owns. The sewage carries

:19:56. > :20:01.heat from people's showers, washing machines and dishwashers. This plant

:20:02. > :20:06.uses a fluid to capture the warmth and amplify it for home heating. It

:20:07. > :20:12.is very cultural and interesting. It is a useful way to use energy.

:20:13. > :20:15.Norway is a global leader in climate policies, with ambitious plans to

:20:16. > :20:20.end of the use of fossil fuels in home heating within the next few

:20:21. > :20:26.years. In the USA, shale gas has forced

:20:27. > :20:30.down emissions because gas pollutes less than coal. America is on target

:20:31. > :20:34.to meet its climate change commitments according to a report

:20:35. > :20:39.from the British government. China's big dams are driving down

:20:40. > :20:42.emissions, too. The report says that emissions could peak in the 20 20s.

:20:43. > :21:00.It emissions could peak in the 20 20s.

:21:01. > :21:06.is a challenge. We need to put in place commitments for the 20 20s and

:21:07. > :21:10.policies to dry significant investment in emissions cuts through

:21:11. > :21:19.the 20 20s, but we are on the path to reducing emissions. Figures show

:21:20. > :21:23.that the amount of CO2 produced for every dollar earned is following for

:21:24. > :21:27.all the major countries including China, Germany and the USA.

:21:28. > :21:31.Governments are at last starting to wake up to the threat of flood and

:21:32. > :21:36.drought and food shortages. They are beginning to reduce the growth in

:21:37. > :21:42.emissions, but scientists say that more needs to be done if we are to

:21:43. > :21:48.get a stable climate. To Canada, and Toronto's may has

:21:49. > :21:50.faced angry protesters and mounting calls to resign after admitting that

:21:51. > :22:10.he had smoked crack a cane. -- mayor.

:22:11. > :22:14.he had smoked crack a cane. -- entire country. The big story

:22:15. > :22:22.continues to be, the Toronto May. Canadian politics rarely registers

:22:23. > :22:28.internationally but Rob Ford's admission that he smokes crack

:22:29. > :22:33.cocaine has changed all that. Adrian used to work for the mayor as he

:22:34. > :22:36.said of press. She helped run his election campaign but now she's one

:22:37. > :22:41.of the many calling on him to quit. Why has he not? Part of it is

:22:42. > :22:45.because he has heard from thousands of Torontonians Mahut support for

:22:46. > :22:51.better worse. They are telling him to keep going and keep fighting. --

:22:52. > :22:55.who support him. Also, years quite stubborn, which contributes to it.

:22:56. > :23:00.On Wednesday, the mere blew a kiss to the media, trailing his every

:23:01. > :23:20.move. Outside City Hall, protesters lined up, calling for

:23:21. > :23:22.move. Outside City Hall, protesters the question! Any lesser mortal in

:23:23. > :23:25.this situation would have been long gone. They would have seen the

:23:26. > :23:30.writing on the wall, quite literally. Miami resident of the

:23:31. > :23:35.city and am proud of the city and he is not making me very proud. We

:23:36. > :23:41.think he has made a mistake and we think he has realised that. I think

:23:42. > :23:46.you should see his time out because he wants to go on. The mayor says he

:23:47. > :23:50.is not going anywhere. He made that clear, admitting his drug use in a

:23:51. > :23:59.press conference on Tuesday. I sincerely, sincerely, sincerely

:24:00. > :24:02.apologise. The chorus of critics calling on Rob Ford to go all

:24:03. > :24:10.chalking up more support by the day. And many of his colleagues are

:24:11. > :24:29.urging him to resign now. A sitting me in

:24:30. > :24:32.Finally John Fitzgerald Kennedy. The month marks the 50th anniversary of

:24:33. > :24:38.one of the defining moments of contemporary US history, the

:24:39. > :24:45.assassination of JFK. The Hollywood film, JFK, is being rereleased.

:24:46. > :24:51.Books, magazines, documentaries and ex-exhibitions -- exhibitions are

:24:52. > :24:54.also being assembled. Tom Brook reports on the Tory Thracian of

:24:55. > :24:59.Kennedy reflections. 20 special television programmes on

:25:00. > :25:03.President JFK will air in the US this month. All branches of the

:25:04. > :25:07.media have been energised with anniversary exhibitions in several

:25:08. > :25:12.cities. I never met anybody cold Oswald. The release of JFK, the

:25:13. > :25:16.film. The director is using the anniversary to reassert his view

:25:17. > :25:18.that Kennedy was not killed by a lone assassin as the initial

:25:19. > :25:40.investigation found, but by a scene investigation technique...

:25:41. > :25:45.Many Americans share his views. A recent poll found that 69% believe

:25:46. > :25:47.there was a conspiracy. The lack of certainty is driving the huge

:25:48. > :25:53.interest in JFK assassination related media. 50 years on, people

:25:54. > :25:58.are still the baiting it. People are coming out and new information is

:25:59. > :26:04.there about ballistics and the autopsy, new recreations. Younger

:26:05. > :26:06.Americans are drawn to the assassination drama, not just

:26:07. > :26:10.because of the tragedy but because of the glamour of the President and

:26:11. > :26:16.first Lady. He was a very attractive man and so was his wife will stop

:26:17. > :26:19.that is marketable. If you had a different president, who was known

:26:20. > :26:25.for his politics but did not have the same look, I do not think this

:26:26. > :26:27.frenzy would have happened. The prevalence of this media, weather it

:26:28. > :26:30.be photographs or television programmes, is bringing to the

:26:31. > :26:51.of people who might be involved in a conspiracy to kill JFK. I will not

:26:52. > :26:55.name names. I have suspicions and they were raised in the film. But I

:26:56. > :27:00.will not go there. It is headline grabbing. Do not believe for one

:27:01. > :27:02.second it was Lee Oswald.
