Houses of ancy Hollywood Hills but very few have seen their new neighbor. Welcome to our viewers on Public Television in america globe. The challenge the government and the status quo. Advice from u. S. Vice President Joe Biden today he said it that is ruffling feathers. I was speaking to a group of students. Soothe ents do much to tensions. From beijing we have the latest. In asia rising china is asserting itself. America is responding. Ed lines are being tested by beijing. And some have suggested the u. S. Decline. The sole rica remains super power. Joe biden met many of the hoping to get u. S. Visas. Challenge the government. Your teachers. Challenge religious leaders. Letting chinas president status quo is not something america is about to happen. Youre candid and onstructive in developing this new relationship both qualities are needed. Chinas leaders adopting the term. Ationalist this is the issue theyve in the sea specs controlled by japan but claimed by china. Months china has been endingships to probe japans resolve, flexing the new naval forces its building. The islands lie far to the southwest of japan and had an the efense zone covering area. Last week china announced its overlapping japans, demanding aircraft here following beijings instructions. Ignoring chinas move, america through the bombers zone to signal the u. S. Is sear uss about its obligation to defend japan. China responded by scrambling fighters. A mid air collision riding. America is concerned about growing passion of behavior by china one that is tensions in asia. That matters because one small incident over these islands trigger a far wider crisis drawing in china on the one side on the other. China says other nations have shouldefense zones so it be allowed one too. Why has china chosen to take this action now . Zone for not couldnt frontation. Japan is making irresponsible remarks escalating tensions. Is the one that dispatched hips and planes to disturb our normal training. Thats joe bidens problem. Relations to many neighbors arent good even if diffused now what has happened is a warning that could s over islands you never heard of could lure much serious o a confrontation. It is very complicated and for more on these difficult between washington, beijing, i spoke a short time americas ambassador to huntsman. N how concerned are you between america and beijing . Beijing is certainly upped the antewith the establish of this zone. From here on will be whether or not the Vice President of the United States trip to beijing is of to build a new level dialogue encouraging tokyo and building talk, Greater Trust and confidence in regional dialogue and relationship. That will be proof of whether or not were moving in the right direction. Because its way too hot in the region. That needs to be lessened. Seem have to been able to do that today. Accusing e chinese america taking japans side and joe biden saying to students to you have to challenge your government. Are these the kinds of indications things are not you might wish them . This is usual. The words to the students i remember my first trip to china reagan he ent ronald had this kind of conversation with china. Used have to similar conversations about certain values around religious freedoms and liberty. The war of words is to be expected. We have differences in the region. With those deal differences. So the measure of Vice President success will be in the days and weeks ahead and not necessarily an hour after the we try to get our sound bytes in and they get theirs in as well. Or two. R the next week do you have a lessening of tension and do you have a war of that it comes to an end. Do you have a process thats put whereby tokyo and beijing are able to engage in a dialogue which at least spells out some rules of work for the farm air Defense Identification Zone established ese that the japanese have. Its not new and been around for a long time. Of the me some sense background here or your take on the background here. You described the region being you ot at the moment and said the chinese have upped the ante. Why now . Well, i would say that there are transitional politics that into. This the new leader of china is now finishing his first year in office. Critical whenr is alley at radition chinese views into power. Consolidatinginue his power base which continues army andes liberation he communist party of china, eighty million members strong and grandsons and grand daughters of the revolutionary elite. You have a an similar set of politics playing with a relatively new to power prime minister. Ou have the reality of transitional politics which likely are playing some role in all of this. Second, you have beijing under some new creating bureaucratic dynamics. Establishing a new national no doubt ounsel which is ruffling some feathers with the military when they see more civilian over national security. I suspect there was some when ng along those lines they established without announcing to anybody else this Defense Identification Zone. John huntsman, thank you for coming in. Thank you.

E watching bbc world still to come, thieves in mexico a truck carrying Radioactive Material. Now the hunt is on to track it down. Evolve from ape like creatures to ourselves. Have extracted dn a from bones 400,000 years old they hope will shed like often our evolution. Scientists scramble towards place they called the pit of bones. Underground tunnels in Northern Spain are the only way into a cave which was once home primitive humans who lived 400,000 years ago. Here are their bones. Perfectly preserved. At the lab, from one of the thigh bones they extract genetic might tow con tkraoe aldn a. Im excited about this development. If we can get might tow con up oe ald. N. A. We can build a store riff these earlier stages of Human Evolution which able to havent been do. For more than a century, up a ists have built picture how humans einvolved by easuring the size and shape of skull and bones. How humans an show changed over hundreds of thousands of years ago. Into primitive humans which lived 1. 5 million years ago. Scientists know that modern humans emerged 200,000 years ago they dont know how we got from here to here. Muzzle in the middle. Scientists hope they can clear muttle by analyzing the dn a in fossils. D. N. A. Can tell you things that bones and stones and teeth cant. Many re will no doubt be more discoveries which will tell story of Human Evolution. News. Sounds like a story that could have been ripped from a hollywood script. Central mexico a truck arrying dangerous Radioactive Material from used medical devices was stolen from a gas station. Details. L the this is the cargo that mexican authorities are for. Erately searching its radioactive and could pose a significant threat to anyone contact with it. And this gas station to the itth of mexico city is where was stolen. The truck taking to a storage point was seized at gun as the driver made an overnight stop. He was tied up before he was able to hit the are a hrarpl. Was to ink the motive steal the vehicle. The vehicle wases are expensive mechanisms to unload heavy material. That type of theft is common from that area. Why we feel the people who did this have no idea what they stole. What are the dangers . Toep truck was the iso cobalt 60. Can be produced as a byproduct from a hospital where medical sterilization is one of uses and the other is Cancer Treatment by means of radio therapy. Ut the great danger is a socalled dirty bomb mixing it explosives could spread Radioactive Material over a large area. Has a powerful emitter so if were you to radiate someone they would have radiation poisoning after a time unless the person who knows what apart is taking it knowledgeable. He would probably kill himself before he could hurt anyone else. The authorities insist the missing cargo is suitably well protected. Agency rnational energy aid at the time the truck was stolen the source was shielded. But it could be dangerous if removed from the shielding or if damaged. That is certainly a worry for residents. Were going have to to demand our authorities find as soon as possible and im worried family. It can effect pregnant informants women, teenagers and elderly. Its serious. Police remain on ahrart for the proceeds what they think is routine robbery which seems and to have unintended dangerous consequences. Spoke a re on this, i to someone. O this reads like a bad thriller what went on in mexico. It appears as you said in your introduction that a used ctive source that is in Cancer Treatment was in a van vanjacked. N was and the source was taken. He big question at this stage is did the thieves who took it have any idea what they were taking. The mexican Authorities Say that they didnt, that there was no to ence they were leaked terrorism. If the mexican authorities was deliberate at was a terror wrist strike then there much more reason to be worried. What can be done with cobalt 60 a Radioactive Material and a very large kaupbltty of material. Cancer do to treat contain large amounts of radio activity. Final terror wrists wants to use nefarious purposes and mexican authorities are saying dont believe its terrorists who got it. Form 60 is found in the of metal balls. Thats hard to disperse. There are other radio activity aterials if taken i would have been more worried about. Material could dispersed. It could be a dirty bomb. Ate very hard to kill people dirty bomb. Could you make an area of a city and that would cause disruption. This worrying it is that tuff, cobalt 60 is driving around in the back of vans relatively unprotected. The very fact that Radioactive Material is possible to steal as easy as this. Thats alarming. Material saves thousands of lives each year through Cancer Treatment. Its good sources are available treatment. I think that all kreuz this a wakeup call to all countries to look at this material. Speaking, when it is being transported how much would be expected . It depends on a country by country basis. Developing countries and mexico is not quite a anymore ountry generally security arrangements weaker. Would you expect an incident like this to produce changes look at r countries do this and say, we have to be more careful about it . Nuclear security needs to be a process. Here are always weaknesses in Nuclear Security that need to be addressed. Of the vulnerability materials during transport. A wakeup call for all countries that have nuclear act i have material and hats every country on the globe. As i say, hopefully this was not terrorism. Ut if it was this could be incredibly serious. For mes, thanks very much coming in. When you think of stars, sunnymoving skies or even endless traffic ay come to 90nined, but what about this Mountain Lion . If you ventured to the edge of downtown l. A. You will see the urban part and it three that ing has taken place. In view of the lights of night eles, hunting at roams p22, full name puma 22.

Veryone around the world knows that the hollywood signs towers over los angeles and doesnt its in the middle of the biggest urban park in surrounded by a concrete exotic nd home to wildlife. Griffiths park as a surprising l. A. To its a popular spot for big big but not necessarily wildlife. Away thatfrom far, far would be good. But not too close. How do you think the dogs react . Pretty skiddish. Hell be a snack. I havent seen it yet. To see it. But very few people have. Scientists first stumbled while mountain line studying the wildlife. We set it up to monitor this get a shot of p22. Biologist was able to discover the big cat. Of as going through dozens photographs when he spotted something unusual. I was tired and had been in the sun a lot. Let me refreshy, my eyesight and look again and t was still a Mountain Lion in front of my face. Its very exciting. Told the National Park service they caught the cougar and attached a tracking collar. He had quite a tourney to get here. He had to cross the 405 freeway matrix of urbanization and the 101 before he made it into an fiths park which is amazing trip. The time to see p22 is once set. Sun is while his diet is deer and rabbits you wont want to get l. A. s urban lion. Greatt would be something to see. From all of us here at world for america, thank you watching.
