and this is the crux of the issue. a lot of the officials are telling me that, if people didn t build this way, these shanties spread, if there s better codes for building in brazil, these accidents wouldn t happen. zain? cnn s helena de moura. thank you so much, helena. let s catch up with the weather outlook for brazil. our meteorologist jen delgado is over at the weather center. how is it looking? is there going to be any more rain? is it over for now? certainly, zain, it s not over. we are dealing with the rainy season across brazil. as i show you on the satellite imagery, notice we have clouds around. this at times is going to hamper that rescue effort to get to some of those people trapped in mountains. the problem is with the clouds around and we still have an area of low pressure nearby, we re still going to see some storms developing in the afternoon. some of those storms could produce heavy downpours, especially in the coastal regions, very close to sao paulo
in france before his unexpected return to haiti on saturday night. cnn reporter has been in and out of haiti several times since the haitian earthquake. he s on his way to port-au-prince right now. he joins me. you know haiti so well. what kind of reception do you think the haitian people will give baby doc? reporter: well, there will be some crowds who will be ecstatic at his return, less out of the fact that they are longstanding supporters of him than they love political theater. in this combustible political situation, the wake of the disputed elections, there are many people out not necessarily looking to cause trouble but willing to give their allegiance to any kind of popular celebrity figure that comes about. we should be stressing that he doesn t have a mass movement or a political party that he s coming to take charge of, and what he really intends to do is unknown. zain? will his presence there help
night was the movie the social network. it took home four globes, including best dramatic picture. i want to thank everybody at facebook. mark zuckerberg for his willingness to allow us to use his life and work as a metaphor through which to tell a story about communication and the way we relate to each other. the tv series glee picked up three awards, including best tv series. we re going to bring you a lot more on the golden globes in about 30 minutes from now. what will sunday s results mean for the big awards show, the oscars? you re watching world one live from london. out of the mud and into the earth. brazil buries its dead, but forecasters say more mudslides could be coming. and a new whistleblower on the block? as the wikileaks founder awaits his extraaddition hearing, we re going to take a look at who else has secrets up their sleeve.
he had a very easy win. he thrashed the slovakian 6-1, 6-1, 6-3. federer is going for his 17th slam title. no problems for him today. that s rafael nadal you re watching video of. he is not in action until tomorrow. going back to today s results, the 12th seed from france had a huge win today. he was two sets down and came back to win in a thrilling five-set match. how about venus williams? it s interesting you ask about her because you mention that serena williams won last year. serena williams isn t even in action, and venus has often struggled in the australian open because her little sister serena has always got in the way. venus has a good chance with serena not playing. she s struggling with the foot injury. venus won today, but not terribly convincing. venus hasn t even played since the u.s. open back in september. not in great form, but she came
crisis really that s been going on in this country, the deep polarization here for more than five years now, is just going to continue. this is the latest chapter of a period of instability that has really continued ever since the former prime minister, rafik al hariri, was assassinated here in beirut in 2005. this is a country that s seen more than its fair share of civil war, of foreign occupation, of internal strife. there is a fair amount of fear from some lebanese that i ve been speaking to that this latest political tension, quite concerned that it could result again in another round of clashes in the streets, the likes of which beirut saw in 2008 when hezbollah clashed with its opponents here in the streets of this city. zain? cnn s ivan watson reporting from beirut. thanks a lot, ivan. by the way, sorry about that
