: It`s the third day of the third

month of 2014
CARL AZUZ, CNN ANCHOR

. Happy you taking ten minutes for CNN STUDENT NEWS. I`m Carl Azuz.

It was a tumultuous weekend in Ukraine. We`ve told you about protests in the capital Kiev that led to the ouster of
Ukraine`s president last month. Most of those protesters want their country to have closer ties with Europe, but many
Ukrainians, like their ousted president, want closer ties with Russia. And one region where support for Russia is
strong is Crimea. It`s in southern Ukraine. It`s where most residents identify themselves as Russian, and it`s where
what we assume to be Russian troops came in the Ukraine over the weekend and took control of the Crimean
peninsula, according to the U.S.
The troops surrounded three Ukrainian military bases. There wasn`t any combat, but the U.S. calls this an active
Russian aggression and says Russia is breaking international law by sending troops to Ukraine. Russia says there is
no open confrontation here, but that it has the right to defend its people and interests in Ukraine.
Time for "The Shoutout." What`s the most populated state in the U.S.? If you think you know it, shout it out! Is it
Florida, Texas, New York or California? You`ve got three seconds, go!
With around 38 million residents, California is far and away the most populated state in the U.S. That`s your answer
and that`s your shoutout.
It`s been the season of extremes for residents of southern California. While other parts of the country were shivering
under snow, ice and bitter cold, areas near Los Angeles have been parched by drought. Windy dry conditions
fostered the spread of wild fires, and when rain finally came from a recent storm system, there wasn`t much
vegetation left to soak it up. So that meant mudslides. Thankfully, no death have been reported because of the rain
and mudslides, but the drought has been so bad that the storms barely made a dent in water levels. Much of the rain
is streaming back out to sea and water reservoirs are still at minimum levels. Even a forecast for more rain isn`t good
news for some folks.
(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)
KYUNG LAH, CNN CORRESPONDENT: It happened in minutes. Fire scorched land couldn`t hold the rain, so mud
poured down from the Glendore (ph) foothills below.
RYAN FRIEND, RESIDENT: It`s (INAUDIBLE). It`s bad. It looks - I mean it`s bad. It hasn`t been this bad in a long
time. It wasn`t like this 20 minutes ago.
LAH: They are getting out while they can.
(on camera): But you are not taking anything with you, just grabbing your dog?
MARIO VASQUEZ, RESIDENT: No, we got my laptop. I don`t need too much, too many things. Everything is going to
be fine. It`s all replaceable.
LAH (voice over): Just a couple of inches of rain and you can see the effects here when the ground, which is burned
by the fire can`t hold all of this and something you`ll notice - the debris it shows - it`s been scarred by wildfire.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: We need to make some friends to help get you out. OK?
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Yeah.
LAH: 1,000 homes are under a mandatory evacuation order. Because they sit below these scorched hills. Two
months ago, it was wildfire. Today, mud into their pools and backyards. California has been in drought for months.

The sudden rain caught some by surprise.

Two people were found stranded in a tree trying to escape the rising water of the Los Angeles River. Take a closer
look. It`s not just people, but there are two dogs. You can see the rescuers, the Los Angeles firefighters as they
carefully move the frightened animals out of the tree one by one to the nearby rescue boat.
And there`s more rain coming. Just bad news for Kim and Dennis Kralik. They chose not to listen to the mandatory
evacuation order. Their one road in and out too covered in mud to drive.
(on camera): Because you can`t get out.
KIM KRALIK, RESIDENT: No, not right now. Until they clear this, we`re stuck here.
LAH: What has Mother Nature been like the last couple of months for you?
KIM KRALIK: We had fire, droughts and now torrential rain.
DENNIS KRALIK, RESIDENT: Winds.
KIM KRALIK: Yeah, pretty much everything.
DENNIS KRALIK, RESIDENT: Yeah, we`ve hit all four elements at this point. I think we are done at this point with any
more crazy storms.
(END VIDEOTAPE)
AZUZ: There may not be much we could do about the weather, but we do a pretty good job of keeping track of it. And
NASA has teamed up with Japan`s Aerospace exploration agency to launch a satellite that will track rain and snow.
It`s called the Global Precipitation Measurement Co- observatory. And if that sounds like an advanced name, it`s a
pretty advanced satellite. It`s designed to circle the earth every hour and a half, observe where it`s raining and send
that info back to scientists every three hours. It can tell the difference between rain, ice and snowfall, and the different
amounts of each. And it will help researches keep track of the global climate and its water cycle. This is not a cheap
project. The satellite cost NASA $933 million. It`s designed to last at least three years.
First "Roll Call" of the month begins in the Pacific Northwest. We`re starting in the Evergreen state where Waterville
high school shockers are watching CNN STUDENT NEWS. Glad to be part of your day in Waterwheel, Washington.
Moving east to South Dakota, specifically gregarious South Dakota. It`s where we find the gorillas of Gregory High
School. And on the Atlantic Coast, the Collinswood Language Academy Jaguars are on today`s roll, hello to everyone
in Charlotte, North Carolina.
March is women`s history month in the U.S. Congress designated this in 1987, and it honors the accomplishments of
women and how they`ve changed the country. Good report to kick off this month is about Julia Ernst. You won`t find
her in history books, yet she is currently a high school student, a future Harvard student and a 120 pounds wrestling
champion.
(BV)
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: There you go!
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: On the mat, the wrestler in green is fast, fierce.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Stop that!

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: And female. It is a rear sight even now in this overwhelmingly male sport. But Julia Ernst is a
rare soul, a young woman beating the boys at their own game.
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Nice, Julia. Wow!
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: One of only three females on the seventh grade team at her private school, by freshman year
the others had quit, and Julia stood alone.
JULIA ERNST, HIGH SCHOOL WRESTLER: Despite the fact that I have supportive coaches and supportive
teammates, it`s still an interesting feeling to walk into a room and be the only person of your type. You know, you`re in
a locker room and you can`t really josh around with the boys, you can`t really make nicknames for each other. Talk
about whatever - cool moves your learned in practice.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: All right, Julia.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Yet encourages by her parents who are into martial arts, she`s started winning over and over
again, sparking a range of reactions. Some boys would outright refuse to wrestle her, others .
ERNST: Yes, they are coming into the match with this sense of pride, and the sense of superiority that they are male,
they are for there, they are going to win the match. If I do end up beating them, then often, you know, those are the
kids that are going to go off and cry in the corner or be really ashamed or have parents that come and yell at them.
JUSTIN GAVRI, GEORGETOWN DAY WRESTLING COACH: She`s one of the hardest working wrestlers I`ve ever
met. The hardest working person I`ve ever met, whether it`s school or whether it`s athletics, she`s just - she just goes
as hard as she possibly could on every .
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: That wins tournaments and fans. With the season winding down, Julia, a team captain, faced
one match to become the winning wrestler in her school`s history.
JENNY ERNST, JULIA`S MOTHER: Everybody was on their feet, shouting and cheering Julia! Julia! And when she
won, everybody jumped up and down, women were literally crying to see this victory. She represents for all of these
women, and I`ve had many conversations with women at this matches. Julia is my hero. She`s doing, you know,
she`s trailblazing for women.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Julia believes her little brother may soon enough eclipse her record, but for now she reigns
supreme 26 losses, 107 wins. All against men.
UNIDENTIFIED MAN (on camera): When you hear your coach talk about your record at your school, what do you
think?
ERNST: I - I`m happy. I`m very happy. I get a little bit giddy to do a little bit of a happy dance, maybe.
(LAUGHTER)
(END VIDEOTAPE)
AZUZ: Call it Carnival, call it Mardi Gras. In New Orleans right now, it`s whatever floats your float. Despite this video,
there is no crabbiness here. Thousands in the Big Easy. To let the good times roll, the party is going on for nine days
now. It wraps up tomorrow. Mardi Gras, after all, means "Fat Tuesday." It ends when the Roman Catholic season of
Lent begins on Ash Wednesday. The Mardi Party may not be as big here, as it is in Rio de Janeiro, for instance. But
for those who are here, it takes the king cake. The crowd just lent yeps (ph) this up. They`ve got to beat on all the
funds. Some might say, they are - crew, but they are OK by me if they are OK by you. We`ll float some more news.
See you tomorrow on CNN STUDENT NEWS.

Winter Olympics Opening in Sochi, Russia; The High Tech Solution for Rio de Janeiro Infrastructure; Family
Reunions of South and North Koreans Under Threat

February 7, 2014

- 04:00:00 ET

THIS IS A RUSH TRANSCRIPT. THIS COPY MAY NOT BE IN ITS FINAL FORM AND MAY BE UPDATED.

CARL AZUZ, CNN ANCHOR: Fridays are awesome. You`ve landed on our February 7 edition of CNN STUDENT
NEWS. At the opening of today`s show we are talking about opening ceremonies in Sochi, Russia for the 22
Olympics Winter Games. They are happening today, more than 6,000 Olympians plus more than 1600 Paralympians
competing. 7500 people can fit into Olympic Park alone, but thanks to the magic of television, 3 billion will be able to
watch worldwide.
There are some security concerns. The latest warning from the U.S. was that explosive materials could be hidden in
cosmetics. Yesterday, the U.S. banned all gels, liquids and powders in carry-on luggage on flights between the U.S.
and Russia. But Russian authorities are saying the games will be secure, and that with other issues worked out,
everybody will be focused on excellence in sport.
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: See, if you can I.D. me. You`ll find me below the equator in South America. I`m the second
most populated city in Brazil. Translated from Portuguese, my name means "River of January." I`m Rio de Janeiro,
the most visited city in South America.
AZUZ: It`s about to get more visitors. Later this year, Rio de Janeiro is scheduled to host a FIFA World Cup, the
biggest sporting event on the planet. And in 2016, the Summer Olympics Game will be there. The city`s more than
400 years old. It has some of the most beautiful sculpture and scenery in the world. It`s used to crowds of tourists.
But one thing that will help this city of history is a monitoring center of the future.
(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)
SHASTA DARLINGTON, CNN CORRESPONDENT: A breathtakingly beautiful city that clings to the Brazilian coast.
Rio de Janeiro is not always the easiest place to live. 6.32 million people, precarious housing and a series of major
events, from a Pope`s visit to the 26 Olympics are pushing the limits of the city`s infrastructure. But here, in the heart
of Rio, an ultramodern operations center, may give officials a leg up. A giant wall of screens streams video from
roads, subways and weather satellites. Employees in white jumpsuits quietly tackle crisis after crisis.
Pope Francis`s visit last July was a major test. The director tells us he slept just three hours a day.
PEDRO JUNQUEIRA, CHIEF EXECUTIVE OF OPERATIONS: When the pope was here, all of us - we had to arrive
here before he left home. And we could only leave after he arrived home.
DARLINGTON: A pioneering system designed by IBM at the behest of Rio`s mayor, the center integrates data from
30 different agencies.
TERESA NASCIMENTO, IBM SMART CITY SOLUTIONS: We`re now trying to replicate in other places that could
help cities, you know, to manage their daily operations.
DARLINGTON: Inaugurated at the end of 2010, the nerve center sounds the alarm when mudslides threatened
hillside favelas and reroutes traffic when accidents block roads.
The center is going to face a big challenge during the World Cup when they have to try and get teams and fans to the
stadium and yet keep the city running.

EDUARDO PAES, MAYOR, RIO DE JANEIRO: We are not as modern as London or Tokyo or Hong Kong or New
York. But in our stage, technologies being more helpful in Rio than it`s in New York, it`s in London, it`s in Tokyo, it`s in
Hong Kong.
DARLINGTON: Of course, no other city has both the World Cup and the Olympics on the horizon, presenting a major
challenge for this new technology. Shasta Darlington, CNN, Rio de Janeiro.
(END VIDEOTAPE)
AZUZ: From South America, we are sailing to the Korean Peninsula. North and South Korea have been divided since
1953 when fighting ended in the Korean War. In South Korea, a republic, people are free to travel. In North Korea, a
communist state, the government has to approve travel, and many families separated in the war have been kept
separate since.
In the past, the two countries agreed to allow reunions. 100 people from each side were set to meet and send time
together later this month, but now North Korea may be going back on that promise, because of annual military drills
that South Korea holds with a North Korean rival.
(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)
PAULA HANCOCKS, CNN CORRESPONDENT: 100 South Koreans who were preparing to be reunited with relatives
in the north, are once again in limbo this Thursday. Just one day after setting a date for family reunions of 20 to the
25 of February, North Korea is now threatening to pull out. The National Defense Commission says it doesn`t make
any sense to carry out the reunions during what it calls a dangerous nuclear war practice.
Now, it`s fulfilling to the U.S.-South Korean annual military drills which starts at the end of this month. This war games
have often angered the North, especially last year, although the U.S. and South Korea say they are defensive in
nature. Pyongyang has called on them to be canceled, but even after today`s warnings, South Korean`s defense
ministry says they will go ahead.
The family reunions are a highly emotive issue. Millions of families will split after the Korean War more than 60 years
ago. Tens of thousands have applied to see family members one last time, and many of them are now in their 70s,
80s and 90s. So, time is running out. Some have passed away already without seeing their relatives for one last time.
There is a precedent for this. In September of last year, Pyongyang pulled out of planned family reunions just days
before they are expected to take place. They would have been the first since 2010. Paula Hancocks, CNN Seoul.
(END VIDEOTAPE)
AZUZ: Religious freedom was one of the subjects President Obama mentioned yesterday at the national prayer
breakfast. This is the Washington tradition dating back 62 years. It brings together presidents, world leaders and
guests of different faiths and political backgrounds.
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)
BARACK OBAMA, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA: Here as Americans, we affirm the
freedoms endowed by our creator. Among them, freedom of religion. Yes, this freedom safeguards religion, allowing
us to flourish as one of the most religious countries on earth. But it works the other way, too. Because religion
strengthens America.
(END VIDEO CLIP)
AZUZ: We`ve been around the world on today`s show. Now, we are going cross-country from east to west. Hail to the
chiefs! We`re glad to be part of your day at West Lincoln Middle School in Lincolnton, North Carolina. In the American
heartland, we`re stopping by Fredonia, Kansas, the buzz is all about the Fredonia High School yellow jackets. And
out west to Wenatchee, Washington we paused to recognize the Panthers who were stocking CNN STUDENT NEWS

from Wenatchee High School.

All right, it`s time to unlock some truth - the band we are reporting on today has released three CDs and counting.
They`ve been on the beats by (inaudible) commercial. They are playing an event with dozens of other bands in April.
And they are heavy metal. When you think of that heavy metal bands, these kids might not fit the stereotype, but
that`s fine by them.
(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)
VICTOR BLACKWELL, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Malcolm Brickhouse, Jarad Dawkins and Alec Atkins, they are
quickly gaining notoriety as the heavy metal band Unlocking the Truth.
MALCOLM BRICKHOUSE, LEAD GUITARIST: People who saw us in the city, they (inaudible) home watch us on
YouTube.
BLACKWELL: One of those YouTube clips went viral, with more than 1.4 million views. The trio has since been
profiled by magazines and featured on shows like "Totally Biased."
For a group of kids from Flatbush, Brooklyn, known more for hip hop and heavy metal, Unlocking the Truth rising
success is breaking down barriers.
JARAD DAWKINS, DRUMMER: Us being black and heaving a heavy metal band is really tough, but then fun.
ALEC ATKINS: Heavy metal, the nail polish, the rock sing - they only see stuff like that.
BLACKWELL: With the support from their families, the boys are undeterred.
TRACEY BRICKHOUSE, FATHER/MANAGER: All three of the boys are like that. Just feel free and do what you want
to do, and don`t care what other people think.
BLACKWELL: And you can hear that in their music.
BRICKHOUSE: Most my lyrics right now, are all being free.
BLACKWELL: Although the group has not graduated to singing (inaudible) just yet, it has not stopped them from
gaining new fans.
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Every single person I know that these kids are doing it.
JON GLASCOE, BASSIST, KRONOS EFFECT: As a black man and grown up listening to punk rock and heavy metal,
I was almost brought to tears looking at these kids.
KIT KELLY, GUITARIST, KRONOS EFFECT: We wanted to be here. We want them to feel our energy and know that
there is, you know, a lot of people out there who respect what they are doing.
BLACKWELL: What they are doing is what they love making music and just being themselves. Victor Blackwell, CNN,
Atlanta.
(END VIDEOTAPE)
AZUZ: Before we go, it`s a pretty famous footrace. But winners finish in less than 12 minutes. That`s because it`s all
uphill. Up the stairs of the Empire State Building. 1576 steps, 86 fights of stares, and the hardest part for top
competitors - it`s got to be the fact that the stairways are pretty narrow, making it hard to pass slower climbers.
Fastest male runner made it in ten minutes and six seconds, fastest female, in 11 minutes 57 seconds. There is no
question they got a lot of stares. Getting a sense of how fast you have to be is empirical. You make sure you`re in a
healthy state and then you start endurance and strength building. Getting to the top is a tower of your achievement.
You`re fighting an uphill battle, but finishing with one awesome runners high. I`m Carl Azuz, and I`m going to hoof it.

Have a great weekend.
