Nightclubs and hobnobing with andy warhol. And went from a museum to art. Good morning and welcome to Al Jazeera America, im Morgan Radford live from new york city. After months of turmile they are out for yanukovichs arrest and tapping the former speecher as the interim president but the defiant yanukovich says he is still in charge and calling parliaments decision illegal and jennifer is in kiev with the still unfolding situation. Jennifer, yanukovich lost the control of the army and support this weekend and now there is a warrant for his arrest and what exactly do you know about that . Good morning, morgan. From the intense to independent square we have more news about yanukovichs movements in the last few days, this is coming from the interior minister and he says that yanukovich left in the Early Morning hours of saturday and he was supposed to attend a meeting of a Political Party and did not attend that and we heard from him on television and went to donask which is a home region where he was governor and tried to leave there biplane but stopped by Border Guards and he is in crimea and he stopped and a president on the run here and as you said morgan now a wanted man. Interestingly we get that from the blog and Facebook Page and they do not have a press survey set up in the past 24 hours there is a lot of change here. This is the parliament and wasted no time saying the yanukovich era is over and gave the president ial powers and voted out the former government. As european observers left the building the people thanked them for helping with change. The streets had been closed for weeks and they come to terms with reality here and they realize how much it costs. She is near the spot where the first protesters were cherokeed last month between where she stood and demonstrators and trying to stop the violence. Translator those boys here with me at the beginning i cannot find them and they are not here and i cannot bring them back. Reporter a shine for each of the lost at the spot where they fell and people call them heros and vow the sacrifice will not be in vain even though much of the countrys future remains uncertain. [chanting] and some have to be reminded this is a day of mourning and not time to revel in change. People poured into independent square, the site where it all began three months ago. 50 said and 50 unhappy because we have little victory but the battles continue. Reporter new battles in the countrys south. And prorussian demonstrators try to prevent the ukraine being raised and the divide between the countrys east and west are a concern with the hope divisions can be bridged with no more blood shed. First working day here in kiev, the first time people are back, heading back to work here and even on independent square people are coming in and out and there is very much here a very somber mood as the country really this is the first day of its new future, morgan. Reporter speaking of the new future alexander is in ukraine and is this a temporary post or is he a challenger to klitschko . He is a placeholder and safe pair of hands and we saw parliament move quickly and voting to give him president ial powers and he led the parliament through dismissing minister by minister the entire government and want to give a sense that it was stable and a sense there is no power vacuum but im not sure he is a power player right now and klitschko pulled herself out of Prime Minister and one of the favorites and a top deputy and she feels she has a hand in power and may be eying a run for the presidency, those elections scheduled for may 25 here. Reporter we will be on the look out and Jennifer Glasse is live in kiev this morning and thanks for being with us. The development in kiev prompted some backlash in ukraine and the area is a stronghold for Viktor Yanukovych and al jazeeras david reports from the region in karkiev. Reporter standing high and proud in the scare, a statute of lennon by demonstrators to protect it and stand by the historic links with moscow. The regions governor walked with them telling them to be peaceful and resists the tide of rebellion sweeping out from here. Translator we are not going anywhere. Do not trust anybody. Today im still the governor. I will not resign. Reporter the words were in russian. This is one of the heart lands of support for Viktor Yanukovych and his whereabouts are a matter of intense speculation but if he is seeking sanctuary this would be where to find it and it was their votes that got him democratically elected and the governor has been elected from the headquarters and kiev square has taken route even in the city and arming themselves with sticks and batons and molotov cocktails being carried into the building. Tensions grew throughout the day with police being used to keep the two sides apart. Events moved so quickly they should now perhaps be called progovernment protesters because its their people who are ruling here. In the crimeon city south of ukraine violent clashes broke out when they broke up a demonstration staged to honor the memory of those killed in kiev. Scenes like these are spreading. On sunday night the standoff continued with a mirror image of months of demonstrations on independent square. But here they want to turn towards russia and keep their backs to europe. The statute of lennon and they are gathering in the square to protect. No denying the divisions are getting deeper and the situation is getting is dangerous. The occupiers of the governors headquarters are determined to stand their ground and may be heavily out numbered here and feel history is now on their side. David with al jazeera. Reporter we now have breaking news out of egypt where the countrys Prime Minister announced the cabinet resignation in a televised address and he took over back in july and led to the removal of Mohamed Morsi and the move paved the way for cici to declare presidency. They are calling for a National Peace conference this week and looking to end three weeks of rioting and violence that already claimed 11 lives and they are up set about high unemployment and high crime rates and over the weekend there were reports that the government blocked access to the internet so the president is claiming this holding is just a part of an attempt to unseat him. Meanwhile thailands embattled Prime Minister left bangkok and she is at an undisclosed location about 90 miles away, antigovernment protest intensified on sunday, three people were killed in a grenade explosion in the capitol and 20 have died since demonstrations began in november and they are demanding the Prime Minister step down. A Memorial Service was held for Afghan Service killed in an attack by taliban and 21 soldiers died on an attack in the post in the eastern kunar province and the worst in years and soldiers were kidnapped that day and it came as the taliban had talks of exchange of u. S. Prisoners. Uganda president signed a severe antigay bill into law. It increases punishment for what the government calls homosexual offenses. Homosexuality is already illegal new ganda but the new law will punish firsttime offenders with 14 years in prison and aggravated homosexuality can lead to a life sentence and anyone who promotes it or talk about it without condemning it will be put to jail. He is homosexual and has aids and is double difficult and its illegal so we changed his name and hidden his face and this provides services for people with hiv like sex workers and gay men and he comes here to get lifesaving drugs and worried the new law will make that impossible. I wont be coming here because i dont think the government will allow us to be here or to Access Medicine because they think the hospital is promoting us, which is not true. Reporter here in parliament the antihomosexuality bill was passed in december after years of discussion and increases jail time for homosexual acts and says medics and teachers must report homosexuals or they will go to jail too and the president said he signed it into law. [cheers] its widely supported here and attracted heavy criticism from abroad especially uganda financial and military supporter the u. S. And president barack obama said he shouldnt sign it but that wont go down well at home. Government minister threatened to resign over it and uganda population is one of the Fastest Growing in the world he is concerned it could be reversed if everybody is homosexual. Its a western hiv, aids. It is it wasnt in terrorism and fighting left and right to wipe out the humanity is all that is left of it. Reporter religion is important to people new uganda and you can buy paraphernalia and they have populations that support the antihomosexuality bill but in reality the law is rarely enforced and few people go to court or jail and unlikely the new law could be enforced either but gay activists say the rhetoric around it has made life difficult and dangerous and contradicts health call codes and Health Policies and legal experts say its unconstitutional but they are a tiny minority and others say its a disruption of corruption and lack of services and paul and others like him can only hope the politics will not cutoff the medicines that keep them alive, mr. Webb. Reporter and that originally had the Death Penalty for acts and removed once the u. S. And other countries were against it. Washington is condemning violence in Northern Nigeria and helping to track down the culprits and john carry say they will provide antitesh rhythm for a threat against boco and linked to Violent Attacks all throughout the country and accused of killing more than 100 people in the state of borno and called the attacks cowardly and have no place in our world.

Districts and named public enemy number one in chicago and wanted for drugs and in texas cocaine and pot and money laundrying and its not clear if he will face an american court. This linked seven homes and he is known as shorty to capture and when he was left behind the risk of capture multiplied. Mexican marines found him in the resort here. They found an arsenal of grenades, rocket launchers and guns but he was unable to get to them in time. On the run for 13 years and still the boss of the Worlds Largest criminal organization he seemed almost too powerful to catch and he was almost at a mythical status and had songs and detailing exploits and ways of evading the law and about his capture and it was designed perhaps to send a message that drug lords are not untouchable. Under the last government many believe his operations were tolerated. A former federal prosecutor said the arrest is a potent symbol and triumph for the president and not enough on its own to break the cartels. Translator the strike is an important one. However what matters is the governments willingness to strike at the Financial Operations and maintain social programs to steer kids away from organized crime. Reporter but skepticism runs deep and what is the governments message the violent country will not be safer. Translator he is one leader and in the end its an hydra and you cutoff one head and two grow back in the place. Translator we are very corrupt country and the government does not practice democracy. Reporter the cartels business is here and known to pay off officials. The last time he was jailed he escaped from a highsecurity prison after bribing guards and u. S.

Reporter im the bearer of bad news after a springlike weekend but not what we will find this week. We will find a progression of the cold air making its way to the south and east as we get through the next couple of days. In fact, wednesday is our coldest day of the week. This is a look in chicago where temperatures are going to be falling to 20 today and down in the teens on tuesday and get to wednesday and low teens and where we will stay as we get through the entire workweek and we will be well below average typically this time of year and chicago mid and upper 30s and that is the case and 10 and up words of 20 and in the areas in the northwest where we are dealing with snow. We are not expecting to see a lot of accumulation with that and had rain through the parts of the northeast and cleared the coastline but getting the north, northwesterly flow off the lakes and that is where the snow will pile up and here in parts of new york and especially north of syracuse is where we could see up words to a foot of snow and localized area could see snow and widespread activity moves to the area and watching a disturbance moving across the great lakes and watching low pressure from the mid atlantic and up the coastline and throw moisture in our direction so possibly 24 in spots.

A labor dispute at a kelloggs plant in tennessee is entering the fifth month and are at a stalemate after labor negotiations broke down and as Al Jazeera John than martin reports more than 200 workers have been locked out of the building. After 53 years on the same job davis never thought it would come to this. No matter what we are going to stick together.

Reporter the workers make an average of 28 and do not contribute to the Health Insurance premiums but to cut costs kelloggs plans to change the Union Contract for future hires and increasing temporary workers and paying them 6 less an hour with different benefits. A kelloggs spokesperson said we need to improve the coast structure and flexibility because its not sustainable and puts at risk the longterm viability of memphis operations but they say a contract with more casual workers means her hours will be cut or worse forced out altogether. They are not going to take these middleclass jobs that there is very few good ones left in this city and were not going to let them take it. And put casual help in here. Reporter with neither side budging kellogg not only locked out the employees in october, it cutoff their Health Insurance. Its hard for me to see my coworkers losing their homes and automobiles and their children not having insurance, that is hard. Kelloggs was a family to us. To have this happen to us, its like losing a child. Reporter the company says it wants to setting on a fair and competitive contract but the workers say the only way they see this ending is for the National Labor Relations Board is to say the lockout is illegal and violates the contract with the union and an nlrb representative told al jazeera that looking in the charges is on going.

Aging america. The sacrifice growing children endure, to care for their parents i left my job as a lawyer. Best ways to cope. My husband was like a single father. My mother said take care of dad on Al Jazeera America good morning to you and welcome back that Al Jazeera America, im Morgan Radford and these are our top story, the u. S. And south korea started drills near the Korean Peninsula and that is despite demands from north korea to stop and the north says they were invasion and realleviation threaten to cancel family reunions going on several days and craig is live in hong kong and what exactly goes on during these drills . Well, these exercises are held every year and there are two exercises this year, the first code named key resolve which involves computersimulated drills and the second is code name for eagle and that involves military exercises, air, naval and ground military exercises and both seoul and washington insist they are defensive in nature and playing out various scenarios of a north korean invasion and north korea say they are invasive and it threatened in the past Nuclear Attack when the exercises are being held. Defensive or invasive is what we see and last year north korea was threatening Nuclear Attacks but it has been relatively mild in comparison and why the sudden change . Well, north korea is interested in opening dialog with the u. S. And also at this time there are these family reunions going on. These are reunions by families split in the korean war in 195053 and they have not been held for three years and they were cancelled because of the exercises and break down with dollar with the u. N. And threatened to cancel them this year but the u. S. Said it may tone down party exercises but not involving aircraft carriers or bombers north korea said these programs could, in fact, go ahead. The family reunions are still going on in north korea. Reporter what is china saying about this . Its the only ally so what is their response to all of this . Well, that is craig morgan but china has been weary of this in the past 12 months since un has come to power and a bit of a maverick and executed his uncles family months ago and the uncle was close with business interest in beijing and china is weary of north koreas movements at the moment and trying to foster increased ties with the u. S. And the u. S. , in fact, to that end invited china to military exercises in thailand a few days ago, the first time it has done it and shows both the u. S. And china are willing to collaborate on Strategic Security issues in this part of the world. Reporter and craig is live with us. The foreign minister will meet with nato officials this week and will discuss the fate of ukraine and the growing divisions between moscow and the west and court we look at that. The west laerns to europe and the east looks to russia and that is ukraine now but a familiar feel. Germany after world war ii and part of the reason that nato was created. And the lord summed up the purpose as to keep the americans in, the russians out and the germans down. Now the crisis in ukraine has amplified the old tension between russia and the west and the soviet union collapsed 20 years ago but nick burns a former u. S. Ambassador to nato saying the Atlantic Alliance is essential for europeans and u. S. Alike. It has a Territorial Defense of the continent and since 149 and the most successful alliance in modern history. Reporter with the end of the cold war the solve yetled war saw nato go down and more joined to 2004 and countries that are allies and part of the soviet union itself. And you can imagine what putin is doing in bolgaria and poland and that is not possible. Reporter they moved into areas beyond the natural mandate like afghanistan and helping victims of Hurricane Katrina and its helping the rivals distresss Vladimir Putin. He thinks it has hemmed russia in. That the fight over the status of ukraine is in some ways a fight to retain russian influence in its broader zone. Reporter but charles of the council on Foreign Relations said it was natos role in the removal of Moammar Gadhafi that soured russia on nato. The russians were very upset because they felt that nato took advantage of a u. N. Resolution to topple a regime and it moved the goal posts and putin declared it the recertain resurgence and exploiting for political purposes. Reporter that embrace of pride may have an alliance and it may look like the past and im with al jazeera. Reporter and the cofounder and director of the european leadership director is joining us from london and the president yanukovich is wanted for police for mass murder and what kind of message is the government sending with this warrant for his arrest . Well, i think its clearly reflecting the anger of many people in ukraine about the events of particularly last week but also the events for the last few months. But a message is a very, very dangerous one because at the moment the new revolutionary government if we can call it that in kiev is doing things which make it look more and more difficult to find compromises with those parts of the country and those communities, russianspeaking communities in the country who may have a slightly different view of this. Few crane is to Stay Together as one state the internal politics of this needs to be patched together. Yes, somebody needs to take responsibility for the deaths of last week and saying the yanukovich warrant is understandable and a need to seek compromise. Reporter you mentioned compromise but the events of the last few months and now the parliament has president ial power what is next . Do they choose between the eu and russia . Well, i think everybody outside of the ukraine needs to work very hard to make sure they dont have to make that kind of fundamental choice. Its very dangerous to say to a country you must make a fundamental choice when the country is very divided and the question you ask if i may say so is slightly premature and today in ukraine there are russianspeaking minorities in crimea who are reportedly joining armed malitia and its not clear ukraine will Stay Together as a single country and cannot take the country for granted at this stage. Reporter you say people out of the country have to do work so they dont face the decision and what type of work do you mean . Well, i think on the economic side of things and the Ukraine Economy is in a great deal of trouble at the moment and a need to have a dialog with russia about having a space that expands from lisban and portugal on the Pacific Coast of russia and we need to take ukraine off the hook and work with ukrainians to deep enthe trade and economic ties both with the eu and with russia. Reporter you mentioned taking them off the hook in russia, how much influence does russia really have on the east of ukraine which we know is a strong support for yanukovich suppor supporters. There was a u. S. Aid poll in december of ukrainians asking which direction they wanted to turn in and that was a divided vote, 34 said they wanted closer ties with russia and the other closer ties with the eu and this is not a fridge minority we are talking about here, this is substantial part of the population and Everybody Needs to work internally and outside of the country to stop talking in terms over fundamental choices one way or another. There is a winwin offer here. If the European Union and nato and russia can Work Together for a supportive environment for ukrainians themselves come together. Winwin and thanks for the cofounder and director of the European Leadership Network and winwin and susan race is talking about the remarks she made at the diplomatic was attacked in 2012 and at the time she was ambassador to the u. N. And she described the attack as a result of a spontaneous demonstration and the comments were an issue during the president ial campaign with republicans saying the Obama Administration was down playing the attack in benghazi and they say that is not exactly the case. I commented this was based on what we knew on that morning was provided to me and my colleagues and indeed to congress by the Intelligence Community and that has been well validated in many different ways since. And that information turned out not to be 100 correction. The notion that somehow i or anybody else in the administration misled the American People is patently false and demonstrated. Reporter she has no regrets of what she said in the aftermath of benghazi and Christopher Stevens and others were killed in the attack. Historic weekend in sports and we are right here with the details, ross . It was a landmark moment in los angeles with Jason Collins going hollywood, 35yearold colin was the first openly gay player to lace it up in the Sports League and signed a ten day contract with the Brooklyn Nets and entered in the Second Quarter against the lakers and they gave him a nice ovation, 7 foot center played 11 minutes and got two rebounds and a steal and no points but played solid defense answer that is fence and why he was signed and after the game Jason Collins reflected on this historic night in sports. I do understand there is significance but at the same time there are other athletes, robby rogers, michael sam, male athletes who are active, all of us, you know, its about being an athlete and going out there and winning and competing and player hard and its just thats what its about. Reporter over at the nfl combine michael sam addressed the circus on saturday about coming out and today will showcase his skills on the field and missouri will be tested in the 40yard dash and shuttle run and football related drills to see how he stacks up against the competition and you cannot measure a persons heart and desire and wants to get judged bisexual orientation but michael sam the Football Player and we are in indianapolis at the nfl combine and providing us updates throughout the day on Al Jazeera America later in the day and hopefully the topic and its news but hopefully one day it will not be news. Look forward to hearing later in the day. For more on the first openly gay player we are joined by gerrad max and he made it clear where his focus was and we will pull it up in the control room. Im thankful for the opportunity and thats why i work so hard, why i train the way that i do. Im focused on trying to learn the plays, trying to learn the coverages of the game plan assignment and i dont have time really to think about history. Reporter and only focusing on the plays is he down playing the importance of his contract . Maybe but the truth is he is there to play a basketball game last night and who has time to think about where do i sit in the historical sense. He knows he is a historical figure and there is nothing but to get ready for the lakers which they beat if First Time Since 97. Reporter the decision to sign jason was basketball decision and needed increase insees and with experience and size we felt it was the right decision for a tenday contract. Was this a basketball decision . Can it be a winwin and the nets might be suited more than any team and handle it in the right situation and that is where Jackie Robinson started with the brooklyn dodgers and you can find ways for the nets to maximize this but they needed a big man and collins played great minutes last night and an integral part. Reporter if its a winwin why not give him more than ten days . This is unique with nba, after january 5 they can sign players to tenday contracts and can sign two tenday contracts before offering a contract for the rest of the season and its kinds of a neat deal. Trial period. Trial period and let getting parttime work before full time benefits. Reporter like a freelancer almost. Reporter Jason Collins and the nets know him spending time with the team and the team mates he has and many played with him before, this is a perfect situation and the nets, whether there is any ulterior motive, they needed a big man and suited for him. He was asked about michael sam in the press conference. Do you think having an openly gay nfl player will effect how they are treated in the locker room and perception . I think it spoke volumes because i expected the crowd to erupt and it came and it went. There was applause, they were respectful to him, it was a celebration and moved on. So many people say to me is this really a story, do we need to hear about this . I think we are getting to the point where do we really care. As somebody who is gay i dont want it to be a story, why is it a story, we are talking about sports and has nothing to do with the other side. Reporter speaking of this issue of respect nfl passes a law saying we cannot have racial or homophobic slurs and do you think it will go to other sports . It may be but i dont want it to be a fear of gotcha where people dont want to get caught and we dont want the league to be one where the words go around because we will be looked at as bad folks and lets not use this language because its not appropriate and not respectful and there are words that get thrown in sports on a regular basis that are not appropriate for living rooms or classrooms. Reporter they are still used. They are still used and the league is trying to cut down on that and nfl said first a 15yard penalty and then ejections for players. I guess there is a time and a place. Reporter you dont think this is the right time . It is the right time but for what reason is it being done on a football field, can fans hear what is being screamed out and if one fan is yelling at another in the sport of competition, i dont know, im not quite sure where i sit. You dont think its wrong. Reporter its wrong and the words are wrong and cannot send a message but if we dont hear it and if its on the field sometimes microphones pick it up. Reporter if the tree falls in the forest it did not happen, if the fans cannot hear it. No, i think it sounds a bad message and if words are used on the field they are likely to be used out in the field and someone may pick up on it and it may be policing policy rather than helping it out is what im trying to say. Reporter thanks for joining us. The death of the oldest known survivor of the holocaust and her remarkable story now a oscar nominated film and what caused her to live in the camp. A subway tunnel looking like ninjas. Reporter what is blight is now considered art and we will go back to the beginning of the Graffiti Movement right here in new york city.

It has emotion and the neighborhood changed a lot but for the most part it still retains creative energy.

Street art emerged from below ground and went to mainstream and two worlds collided.

Jennifer glass joins us from kiev. The president losing the support of the party over the weekend. Now there is a warrant for his arrest. What do you know about that . Thats right, del one join me here from the edge of Independence Square. President yanukovych we know is on the run. The prosecutor is preparing a warrant, Police Looking for him. We have a little more information about his movements over the past few days that from the new interior minister. He says that yanukovych left kiev early saturday morning, first he went to one of his Political Bases to meet with leaders of his Political Party, then went sunday to another Political Base where he was governor. He tried to leave the country from there on a chartered plane but turned back by border officials. The last known whereabouts, he wrote a public letter to his guards releasing them from duty. Very much a man on the run this morning, this after parliament sent haim clear message that his presidency is over. The acting president of ukraine is this a temporary post or is he a challenger now.

Thank you very much. Thailand embattled prime might bester left bangkok, saying shes at an undisclosed location about 90 miles away. This after antigovernment protests intensified sunday when three people were killed. 23 people have died since november when protestors demanded the Prime Minister step down. Venezuelas president is calling for a National Peace conference looking to end three weeks of rioting that have claimed 11 lives. As rachel levin reports, bad economy and high crime has people taking to the streets. They are frustrated and angry, fed one what they feel is a government that doesnt listen to them. Nearly three weeks ago, students in venezuela ignited a protest movement that is spreading across the country. Some want the government to change, while others want to change the government. We always dreamed that venezuela will advance instead of regress. We dont build here. Security is terrible, we have food shortages, now we feel for the first time that our dream of a different country might happen. With 15 years of president s chavez most of these students have never known any other system of government. So far, their cries for change are mostly resonating with the upper class and people who have historically always supported the opposition. Even in this neighborhood, where the president enjoyed almost full support, people have similar grievances, mainly high inflation and soaring crime. Many here have benefited greatly from social programs chavez funded with oil revenues, free medical care, better schools and government housing. Students are getting a Free University education, thanks to hugo chavez. They have not gone to a single protest and have no plans to do so. They dont know what they want. They say they are protesting because they cant buy flour and milk and wait in line at the market, but the truth is they dont want maduro. Its the same old story. The Opposition Leader warned the students that the movement has little chance of succeeding if it doesnt spread to other sectors of society. I asked those who are protesting not to lock yours up with your own people. What good does that do . Who you are going to convince by locking yourself in on your observe streets when everybody there is already convinced . How many people hear his call might determine the future of the movement. Caracas, venezuela. Three u. S. Diplomats and several journalists have had their press credentials revoked. The penalty said that is all an attempt to unseat him. Recent violence in Northern Nigeria, a group accused of killing more than 100 people. Secretary of state john kerry called the attacks cowardly saying they have no place in our world. The pentagon is looking to shrink the army to preworld war ii levels. Chuck hagel is expected to announce budget cuts today. The cuts include eliminating an entire class of air force attack jets, but some members of the congress say they will try to block that proposal. The armys peak following the 9 11 attacks it had 570,000 troops fighting two wars in afghanistan and iraq. President obama pledged to end both wars reducing troop levels to 490,000. After todays proposal, the numbers will foul between 440 and 450,000, the smallest u. S. Military since 1940. Also today in washington. The Supreme Court set to hear a case determining how much power the federal government has when it comes to regulating emissions from Greenhouse Gases. This power has been challenged twice before in the last seven years. President obamas vow repeated during his state of the union to act on his own when Congress Wont gets a challenge today. Over the past eight years, the United States has reduced our total Carbon Pollution more than any other nation on earth. Thats why i directed my administration to work with states, utilities and others to set new standards on the amount of Carbon Pollution our power plants are allowed to dump in the air. That is what 17 republican led states and Energy Groups will argue against in front of the Supreme Court, saying the president and the Environmental Protection agency are over stepping their authority, by passing congress when it comes to limiting Carbon Emissions at power plants nationwide. Its round two in a fight dating back to 2007. In that prior decision, the e. P. A. Says the Supreme Court granted the agency power under the 1970s Clean Air Act to regulate air pollutants that cause climate change. Groups like the u. S. Chamber of commerce will argue the e. P. A. Is overstepping its authority. It claims the 2007 decision was limited to regulating emission the from vehicles, not factories. The shift to a cleaner Energy Economy wont happen overnight, but the debate is settled. Climate change is a fact. A fact the Obama Administration says that gives it the right to extend its reach to socalled stationery sources like power plants, which the e. P. A. Says are the largest source of emissions and pose the greatest risk to human health. Republicans, however, say keeping the regulations would result in the costliest and most in truce i have measures ever attempted by the executive branch. Both sides admit any decision will be largely symbolic because the e. P. A. Has other ways to regulate pollution. Libby casey joins us from washington. What are the real world repercussions of this case . This has been in affect for three years. The e. P. A. Says any plants, companies that are building new plants or modifying old ones have to limit the amount of air pollution or Greenhouse Gases. We are talking about coal fire powered plants, chemical facilities, oil refineries, the e. P. A. Went narrow on this saying the regulations really only pertain to the larger plants. They could have gone bigger and targeted smaller plants, mom and pop operations, but the e. P. A. Said this is what were targeting, big plans that emit the most. Because of that, it has a fairly narrow scope. When we say the Supreme Court rule, which should come this summer, it will only relate to some plants, not all across the country. Thats why people are saying this is in many ways symbolic, because it will be one of these things that both sides can use to argue their point. If the Obama Administration wins, they can say look, we have some authority. If the republican led states and some of the companies win, then they can say that, you know, we have more of an argument an our side against the barack obama pushing forward with its own regulation. What about the industry, do they support the case against the e. P. A. . Of course many do and theyre involved in this, some of the larger plants. Some say hey, the e. P. A. Could have gone farther and targeted smaller plants. It didnt, so we feel ok with how this stands. There is also one company that filed a friend of the court brief supporting the e. P. A. It said we have instituted these new changes in our plants and it has not been a problem and made good economic sense for us. Its not as clear as industry against the administration. Libby, thank you very much this morning. So dont get used to it. The spring like weather in some parts of the country this weekend wont be sticking around. For more, lets bring in our meteorologist. Even as army as this morning, you will feel that drop in our temperatures across many years of the northeast. I just want to show you the timing of it all as we go through the day today. This is 3 00 this afternoon. Notice all that blue shading, the cold air that is going to continue to drop southward in the next 2448 hours. By wednesday, our cold effort day of the week for most areas as that cold air movers into the Southern Plains with highs in the 40s for dallas. We were just in the 70s. We are going to be dealing with 40s. In philadelphia, certainly an area with the spring like warmth over the weekend where we climbed to 57 yesterday, so above average numbers. Now we are going to drop well below by 10 degrees. Upper 30s monday, mid30s for tuesday. We could be talking a little snow mid week. The winds will be an issue, kicking up throughout the day, as temperatures fall, its going to feel colder to your skin as you step out. You do need the heavier jacket getting into the afternoon, mean mild this morning. We have snow showers out there and mainly with the westerly flow off lake ontario, could see six to 10 inches north of syracuse. This system is bringing light snow into parts of the midwest. Back to you. A Memorial Service was held for Afghan Soldiers killed in a taliban attack. Twenty soldiers died on an army outpost and seven soldiers kidnapped. Its the worst blow to Government Forces in recent years coming just as the taliban suspended talks over a possible exchange of u. S. Prisoners. National security advisor susan rice is speaking out defending the remarks she made shortly after that talk on the u. S. Compound in benghazi in 2012. At the time, she was the ambassador to the united nations. She described the attack as the result of a spontaneous demonstration. Those comments became a contentious issue during the president ial campaign, the republicans saying the white house was down playing the attack. Rice it is thats not the case. I commented that this was based on what we knew on that morning, was provided to me and my colleagues and congress by the Intelligence Community. Thats been well validated in many different ways since. That information turned out in some respects not to be 100 correct. The notion that somehow i or anybody else in the administration misled the American People is patently false and i think that thats been amply demonstrated. She said she has no regrets about what she said in the aftermath of the attacks. Four americans, including ambassador Chris Stevens were killed in that attack. Were fog a developing story out of egypt where the countries interim Prime Minister announced his cabinet registration in a televised address. He took over at interim trial minister after the removal of president Mohamed Morsi. Nicole johnson joins us live to tell us exactly what that all means. What can you tell us about the interim Prime Ministers announcement . First of all, he didnt actually detail in his address why the cabinet was resigning, so is still waiting to get more information about it. We do know the interim Prime Minister will continue to run that cabinet up until a new one is appointed. Whats important to note is whats been going on in egypt over the last few weeks. Its been quite unstable interns of protest and strikes. Theres been a lot of strikes by organizations to do with doctors, pharmacists, factory workers, as well as public transport workers, so there has been quite a bit of unrest on the street and this could be the interim president s response to that growing instability. You mentioned the instability of the past two weeks. Could this then pave the way for the army chief to prepare his candidacy for president . Thats right. Thats really the million question at the moment. Now, we dont know yet whether the head of the military, the defense minister general assisi is resigning. If he wants to run for president , he will have to resign. If he is resigning, this would enable him to go ahead and run for president. Were expecting elections to be held in april, so it would be very timely. All right, aljazeeras Nicole Johnson in doha, thanks for joining us. Head lines around the world, the denver post saying colorado wants to clear the air adopting strict rules for oil and gas companies, requiring leaks to be detected and fixed. It means they have to capture and install 95 of emissions including methane. That means they get the energy bill and protect the environment and health. A lot of companies not too happy about that.

The announcement was made at the g20 meeting in sydney this week. They plan to increase investment and creating tens of millions of new jobs. The group accounts for 85 of the global economy. , to aljazeera america. Also a medical mystery in california, some children coming down with a polio like virus and partially paralyzed. First lets look at temperatures across the country. Its going to be a cooler one for some down right cold over the eastern u. S. The midwest has dropped down to minus one in minneapolis, 13 in chicago. It felt mild in new york city, 35, temperatures starting to fall a bit, 39 in washington, d. C. Dont expect much of a warmup. We enjoyed a nice above average weekend, but now reality sets in, the colder air returning and temperatures kind of holding settled as we go through the day, so only 33 in portland, 36 in boston, new york city 37. Do group that heavier coat or jacket as you make your way out into the upper midwest. Temperatures much cooler than our average low temperature. We drop to 16 below zero in minneapolis, right now at minus one, it feels like minus 16 in fargo, feeling the cool air there. Dallas will get to 60 before the much colder air settles in mid week. Medical researchers in california are concerned about a miss citious illness that mimics polo. Aljazeeras erika pitsie joins us now. The department of health is involved. They are working with the c. D. C. In atlanta to investigate what they call an emerging infection. These infections possibly caused by a virus are suspected of paralyzing nearly 25 young children, all within a single year. Public Health Officials do not know why. Some of the symptoms include sudden severe weakness that comes on sometimes after a mild respiratory sickness. In at least five cases, the children lost the ability to move their arms or legs, which dangle like empty balloons. Scans of the patients spinal cords show patterns of damage similar to those found in polio sufferers, which is disconcerting to doctors, because polios been eradicated for decades in the u. S. A neurologist said what we are seeing now is bad, the best Case Scenario is complete loss of one limb, the worst all four limbs with respiratory in sufficiency, like the old polio. They know definitively that it is not polio, because in all cases, the children were vaccinated. He said whatever it is, it is very rare. They urge parents if there is a sudden onset of any symptoms, go to a physician immediately. What do doctors think it is . Theyre grappling with it, investigating saying it could be a family of viruses that includes polio, as well as a milder hand, foot and mouth disease that is common in young children. No vaccine for this. Has it happened initials . Yes, reported cases in australia and asia. As for the u. S. , these california researchers said that the reason why he feels there are no other reported cases is no one is looking for it. It hasnt been around a long time. It will be interesting to see if the c. D. C. Gets involved if they see more cases.

Im Morgan Radford. Im del walters. Ukraines president Viktor Yanukovych said he is still in charge but is a wanted man. One mans passion for cooking helps him escape his neighborhood and become a top wine expert. The british da Cabinet Meeting in scotland, all about scotland said desire to become an independent country. First, lawmakers in ukraine moving quickly to form a new government. The opposition controlled parliament calling an emergency session sunday, tapping former Parliament Speaker as the countrys interim president. Theres spill overfrom months of unrest. Antigovernment protestors now guarding government buildings and patrolling the streets of kiev. Nick shiffrin reports they now control the countries fate. If you want to leave kiev in a hurry, you have to go through 24yearold on the left and the 36yearold on the right. Have you ever done security before . No. Have you ever done security before . This is the very first time. For the last three months, they fought the government. They feel they won and to the victors go the spoils, the local airport. Their goal is to crack down on protestors. They check passengers against picture of the most wanted, not the polices most wanted, their most wanted. They want to be the conscience that keeps order. Are you trying to find people president obama enact punishment. Of course not. We are citizens. We want order, we want the law. When the real police arrive, the volunteers shoe them away. This police, just three days ago, they were ready to shoot us just because we stay here. This is hypocrisy. You probably heard of rosy the riveter. The caterer, every member of the opposition is till helping. They feel the fight isnt over. If im doing my best and im the average person, then probably everybody else is probably doing their best and if everybody is doing their best, then we are just we have to win. In the heart of kiev, the police have evaporated. The rag tag bands known as the hundreds are in charge, even in the seat of power. This is the court yard of parliament, the future of the country is being decided inside. Outside, you see one of the main Opposition Leaders giving a speech, and even here, his security are the citizens brigades. A professional service their not. Their head protection designed for construction workers, or in this ones case, snowboarding. Despite the doityourself armor, they have a command structure. To reboot the system. Yes. The politicians seem to realize that. The people control us, because they move the government away, and a new Government Back will move us. Down the block, they control the cabinet office. To some it may seem a building as important as the pentagon is guarded by boy scouts. Do you feel you replaced the police in kiev . Definitely not, but we do hope that the police will get replaced. His day job is in i. T. He said his clients can wait. What cant wait is what he called ukraines third revolution. What is done here changes us all. For years to come, anything that is not right, well make sure that we work to make that right. For that, the public thanks them. They people the volunteers will protect them and their futures. Nick shiffrin, aljazeera, kiev. Andre is the executive board member for Ukrainian Congress committee for america and joins us now. I asked you a second ago, is it that corrupt . Yes, it is, the people have been tired of the corruption, the amount of money that yanukovych and his family, the clan has gathered. His son, a dentist has a net worth of 6. 5 billion wimp he has amassed in the last five years. Thats a lot of fillings. Youre right. I want to show you something mentioned sunday, National Security advisor susan rice speaking, take a listen to what she had to say. Its not in the interest of ukraine or russia or europe or the United States to see the country split. Its in nobodys interest to see violence return and situation escalate. We hear talk about the west being associated with the e. U. , the east with russia. Some say it needs to be a divided country. Your thoughts on that. Can there be a united ukraine talking to both russia and the e. U. . Yes, absolutely. The ukrainian people are united in this in a generational divide. We are not talking about russians versus ukraineens, we are talking about a soviet identity dying off year by year. But not yet. Not yet. If you talk about odessa, yesterday there were 4,000 mourners who demonstrated for the people who died. Others as well are protesting for the spirit of democracy. What you see holding the line are people who have banners not of the russian flags, but of the soviet flag. Just on your footage yesterday i saw in front of the statue of len anyone, the slava glory to the soviet army, theyre talking about a past that does not exist. Is there a sense that they are owe posed to the European Union or those who live in the east are afraid of the Old Soviet Union . Its propaganda. Its people like the Russian Foreign ministers talking about the war of 1709, this is some kind of polish swedish conspiracy theory. These are all stories told to people who are frightened in the east and theyve been for years about nato and thats why not engaged in this process. The younger people have been involved in the process, want a Better Future and thats happening now. We have seen this before, libya, egypt, where there are popular uprisings in the street, a call for democracy, there is stepped up efforts to get either the United States or European Union involved and two years later, chaos. Are you concerned now about ukraine . Everybodys concerned. Yesterday, our pop star whos been on the stage every day for the last 90 days put out a tweet saying im very scared about having deja vu in the orange revolution where there was a change of power and things went downhill again. We are talking about people trying to keep the spirit going. There was a post up that said instead of pictures of the president , we should have pictures of the dead in everybodys office to remind them what were fighting for here, a Better Future for ukraine. Were not fighting for having ourselves to become popular politicians. There has been an arrest warrant prepared now for Viktor Yanukovych, the president. Can you move forward when you get ready to put the former president on trial who was also very popular in the eastern part of ukraine. Absolutely. This was the problem in 2004 and 2005. In this country people might understand the analogy of richard nixon. He resigned and did not seek further power the court pardoned him. After that, nixon did not run for any further political office. What happened in 20042005 is that yanukovych was allowed to not be prosecuted for trying to steal the election and other crimes that happened at that time. Point web decided to run for Prime Minister, rebranded himself with western Political Consultants and achieved the status of Prime Minister and easily the presidency after that. So what has to happen now is definitely a prosecution of this man for crimes against humidity. This is not just a problem in ukraine anymore. There have been whisperings in hague about a tribunal having the crimes prosecuted by them. The executive board member for the Ukrainian Congress committee, thank you for joining us. Ukrainian americans are voicing concerns about their home lands future. Demonstrators gathered outside the ukrainian consulate in new york on sunday. Over in chicago, protestors wore black and read the names of those killed during demonstrations in kiev. Im happy, but im scared. I hope the new government, that they put in, is the right people that they put in and we dont go through this another five or six years down the road. Now theyre trying to put up a temporary government, which will then allow for the elections to take place in about two months and then in fact, get rid of all of the dead and commie wood thats there. When the consulate general came out to address the crowd in chicago, he was booed. The u. S. Was issued a new travel alert for americans going to ukraine, the state department telling them to change plans or lie low if theyre in the country already. The warning says in part while the transition has been largely peaceful, there is still a potential for violence. There are new allegations the n. S. A. Stepped up its efforts, the german newspaper saying leaders in germany are now watched, coming less than two months after the white house band the n. S. A. From spying. Germany is pushing for a new spy deal with washington. The u. S. And south korea started military drills near the Korean Peninsula. The exercises went ahead despite demands from north korea to stop. The north said these drills are rehearsal or an invasion. They threatened to cancel family reunions that have been going on for the last several days. We are joined live now from hong kong. What goes on during these drills . These are annual drills. They are held at the behest of the u. S. And south korea purely as not only a show of strength from the u. S. As it moves towards the Asia Pacific Region and south korea, which wants to ward off a north korean threat, but both countries say that they are beautiful defensive, that they are not aggressive and that these drills actually look at various scenarios of a north korea invasion. There are two separate drills that are taking place, one code named key resolve, involving computer simulated drills. The second is bold eagle in two months, involving drills of military and ground exercises. It looks like we lost the feed there. Craig leeson reporting from hong kong. Despite tensions between north and south that you heard craig talking about, family reunions are still taking place. Today, 360 people from south korea met with relatives in the north for the First Time Since the korean war in the 1950s. Those were planned last year as the north began calling for better ties with its neighbor. Ugandas president signed an anti gay bill into law today. Homo suit is already illegal, but this increases punishments for what the government calls homosexual offenses and the punishment 14 years in prison.

Right now athletes are heading home from the most expensive olympics ever but for russia, the games were about a resurgence on the world stage. We look at the legacy of those sochi games. The Winter Olympics finished as they started, wit with a celebration of what it is to be russian, but where as the Opening Ceremony was self defined, the closing ceremony was through european eyes from an italian screen writer. There was much to say about these olympics for some particularly in the west, they were the home the terrorist games 51 billion. They were even the dogkilling games. It wasnt just foreigners, pussy riot risked whippings and arrests for a protest video. A spotlight was shined on the many allegations of corruption. Its easy to forget that the olympics are actually a sporting competition, particularly when they come with as much political baggage as the sochi games. On the sporting front, its the host nation who are on top of the world. Despite the disappointments of russias mens hockey team, russian athletes finished the competition in first place on the medals table, so president Vladimir Putin is proud. Theres nothing like victory to boost the national mood. Putin made no attempt to hide it, he said that this is the olympics devoted to the resurgence of the russian nation so for him, it was extremely important to do this sort of National Building effort through sports. Global events can always spoil a big party. Ukraines on going crisis has overshadowed these games to a certain extent. Once the circus leaves town the people in this region will answer the question was it all worth it. Aljazeera, sochi. In two years, the 2016 summer olympics will be held in rio de janeiro. So much concern about these olympics. Good to see the things started, finished. Morgan has been talking about this all morning, mens and Womens Basketball league play against each other.

It is the first working day since the terrible tragedy last week, the terrible violence here last week to essentially shut down the capitol. It was a ghost town here, but we went around kiev early this morning and the streets are busy, bustling. This is the edge of Independence Square, the busiest ive seen Independence Square on a weekday in a very long time. There was a funeral here earlier, many people coming to pay respects to those who died on the shrines dotted around the square. There is a feeling of a new yen here, the courts open after a week of being closed. So, i think, you know, ukrainians are watching and waiting.

With the cold front, one shot moves through then a reinforcing shot mid week and latter part of the week. This morning, 512 degrees colder than yesterday. Cleveland, 12 degrees cooler. Its 11 degrees cooler in pittsburgh. This morning, widespread 30s across the area. You factor in the wind, this morning, not too bad, but it does have it feeling a little more like were in the upper 20s around new york city. Well get a westerly wind flow transporting moisture in. With that, we are talking snow, but its going to be very localized. Thats where were going to see the heaviest amount here just north of syracuse, six to 10 inches of snow can be expected as we get moisture off the lake interacting with the colder air. Most areas in the surrounding vicinity will only see about an inch or two. Now as we get into mid week, thats when were talking more widespread snow. Well watch a cold front across the great lakes and an area of low pressure tracking very close to the coastline from the mid atlantic and as it heads northeast kind of parallelling our coast across new england, its going to throw moisture back in. We are expecting to see snow, a few inches, certainly a good bet. Through the week ahead, temperatures are going to stay cold.

We still have that trough hanging out across central florida, meaning more showers and storms through the afternoon hours.

Some symptoms include sudden severe weakness coming on after a mild respiratory sickness. In five cases, the children lost the ability to move their arms or legs. Scans of the patients spinal cords show patterns of damage similar to those found in polio sufferers, which is particularly disconcerting to doctors, because polio has been eradicated for decades in the u. S. A neurologist in stanford said what we are now seeing is bad, the best Case Scenario be the loss of one limb, the worst all four limbs with respiratory insufficiency, like the old polio.

He said whatever this is, it is very rare, urging parents who notice a sudden onset of symptoms to go see a pediatrician immediately. Are there other areas seeing theout break .

David camerons cabinet traveling to scotland while top scattish officials hold their own meetings, both talking about oil. Whats the significance of the Energy Sector in this election . Well, alongside currency, the north sea oil and gas industry is one of the key battle grounds in the debate for scottish independence, just to put it in context, the industry, the oil and gas from the u. K. Continental shelf is worth over 100 million to the u. K. Economy in its current production every year. Both sides of the independence debate want to maneuver to best exploit this. Cameron is pro scotland staying in the u. K. , saying that the u. K. Can best exploit this esource because its a larger economy, with a stand the shocks of a volatile international madty. The first minister of scotland says scotland can take care of its own affairs, it would follow in norways footsteps, exploiting its resources by creating an oil fund. It would channel some of the funds to seat up this and it would then invest shares internationally. This debate is very, very essential to the outcome of the referendum. The Scottish First minister saying the race is getting tighter. Can we expect more large scale gestures from the British Government . We think the strengthening of rhetoric lately, saying that if scotland leaves the u. K. , it also walks away from the pound. Now first minister said that he wants to maintain a sterlings own so he can stay in that realm of the economy, but David Cameron that said hes going to fight with all that he has to stay, encourage people to stay in the u. K. , so no doubt we are going to see over the next months him continue in that vein. It is americas busiest shipping has been r.

Afghan officials are investigating reports that foreign intelligence agencies were involved. The can i go of 21 Afghan Soldiers as they slept at a remote outpost seems to be the worst single blow to Government Forces in the last three years. They would have had little chance as their base, close to the border with pakistan was overrun by what the government says were hundreds of taliban fighters. The attack was organized from the other side of the border, and it was very intensive. The army defended their country until the last drop of their blood. The defense minister accused a Foreign Intelligence Service of helping plan the attack. He didnt name pakistan, but the inference was clear. Since the beginning of the year, more than 80 Afghan Soldiers have been killed in combat with the taliban, a measure of the challenges this army faces as it looks after the security of its own country without nato forces. The air support that nato would have once provided wasnt available this time. This mans son had been a soldier for more than three years. He was the only breadwinner, his father says. Theres been an outpouring of public sympathy for these soldiers and their families and fears the army is poorly equipped. All this may have helped prompt this public memorial. It was a first for the afghan early, which is normally reluctant to publicize is growing list of casualties. Seven soldiers were also kidnapped in the talk, the taliban suspending talks of any exchange with u. S. Prisoners. Former president george w. Bush making veteran affairs a personal priority got emotional talking about returning Service Members with post Traumatic Stress disorder.

And were listening to that education at the same time, but its not like its just thrown at us, because we already are feeling sick, you dont want anybody to tell you dont eat this and dont eat that, because youre already upset about everything else.

They want to come to programs that are going to help them move forward with life, i am prove quality of life and live well.

The numbers are frightening particularly for republicans, because they worry if they dont get enough la tone know vets, they could be writing it off, 100 years ago, a huge wave of immigration and republicans really wrote them off and those voters became the basis of the new deal. Republicans could be making the same mistake again. Bill snyder, joining us from washington, d. C. This morning, thank you very much.
