INTRO: Security and intelligence experts are deeply worried by a new development in suicide bombing. It's
emerged that an Al-Qaeda assassin who died last month while trying to blow up a Saudi prince in Jeddah had
hidden the explosives INSIDE his body. By doing so he managed to pass through security checks undetected
as our Security Correspondent Frank Gardner reports.

Dopesheet: Director Matt Reeves, who is in Rome for the film festival, talked to Rainews 24 about his second
film 'Let Me In', an American adaptation of the 2008 breakout Swedish vampire drama 'Let The Right One In'.
Shotlist: Director Matt Reeves soundbite
Keyframe:
9:51:57 Q: Stephen King said this was the best US horror in 20 years.
9:52:04 SOT Matt Reeves: `Yes he did I was very flattered. I met him at the New Yorker film
festival. We ran a panel together talking about vampire stories actually and the write of all the Twilight
screenplays all the feature films there and there was a wonderful professor there, but there was Stephen King
and I walked in the door and they told him who I was and he immediately pulled by aside and put his arm
around me and told me how much he loved the film and I was blown away, it was a great hour, very exciting,
especially given how many ways he had inspired the film, including obviously in the ways in which I think I just
met Jon Lindquist, we spent some time together and I love him, he's a wonderful man, and he was telling me
how his childhood was definitely by Stephen King and so I think it found its way into his writing, and then
obviously in all of the films that have been made of Stephen King stories I have been very, very influenced and
in trying to do this film I think you can look through and find all these Stephen King stories that I watched in
film version in preparation, from the Shining to Carrie to all of these films, so it was a very exciting honour
when he said that.`
9:53:18 Q: The original story of your movie is set in Scandinavia and the protagonist is really the
cold, the ice, the snow, which can be comparable to the coldness of the death of vampires. How did you move
it to the heart of New Mexico, which is not as cold as Scandinavia?
9:53:40 SOT Matt Reeves: `It's interesting because when I started looking for places to shoot the
film, one of the things I loved about the story, both in the novel and in the film was the sort of idea of the virgin
snow and blood, it seemed to capture the idea of innocence juxtaposed with sort of our more primitive nature,
so I want to hold on to the snow, and I had originally set the story in Colorado, because in the novel Oscar, the
boy, is obsessed with serial killers and it's all sort of how he's being believed and you get the sense that over
time he's been very affected by these experiences, and it reminded me a lot of what I'd heard about an
experience in the US that was the Columbine tragedies where these boys who had been bullied turned on
their class mates and it was a very, very sad affair and had taken place in Colorado. And the place that
seemed like on the one hand it should be a kind of idyllic American suburb but on the other hand there was a
kind of isolation and loneliness and a remoteness that had a lot of desperation under it. So when I started
looking it turned out Colorado was too expensive to shoot it and so somebody suggested New Mexico and I
had the reaction you had which was oh well it's the desert so it'd be really warm and what is that like and they
said no no no it's the high desert and in fact it snows there quite a bit, in Los Alamos, which is an interesting
suburb with its own unique history, and it was a town that grew up out of nowhere because of the Manhattan
Project and so it's a whole town that grew up around the history of the atomic bomb, but it snows up there, it's
cold and in fact there's much of the film, moments where it's snowing and that's because it did snow while we
were shooting there, so it's very cold, so we were able to preserve that, because that was one of the things I
loved about the story and wanted to keep.`

Dopesheet: The 184-day Shanghai World Expo came to the end as a closing ceremony started here Sunday
evening. Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao and other dignitaries attended the ceremony.
Chinese Vice Premier Wang Qishan said the Expo has made China and the world come closer together, and a
more open, inclusive and culturally advanced China that steadily moves forward will join other countries in the
world to usher in an ever brighter future for all.
He said the Expo spirit will be carried forward from generation to generation.
President of the International Exhibitions Bureau (BIE) Jean-Pierre Lafon said Shanghai World Expo an
"astounding success".
He said Shanghai shows that with a talented organization, a willing to succeed and an excellent international
communication campaign, a World Expo always brings out a true fascination.
The BIE flag was lowered and Wen Jiabao declared the Shanghai World Expo closed.
The first of its kind staged in a developing country, the event attracted 246 participating countries and
international organizations and 73 million visitors. Both figures are records in the history of expos, the first of
which was held in London in 1851.

Dopesheet: Some of the oldest communities across the Middle East belong to the Christian faith. They have
co-existed peacefully with Muslims for centuries, but several factors, including rising Islamic radicalism in
recent years, has seen their numbers fall.
Nowhere have the changes in the region been more sudden
than to Christians in Iraq, where a plunge into
unimaginable levels of violence after the 2003 U.S.-led
invasion left many Iraqis, including Christians, seeking a
safer life elsewhere.
Once numbering some 750,000 in this mainly Muslim
country of 30 million, Christians have been trapped in the
crossfire of sectarian strife between the once-dominant
Sunni Arabs and the country's Shi'ite Arab majority.
Alarmed that their flock could face extinction, Iraqi
Christian leaders appealed to the Vatican for help.
Pope Benedict, also worried about the shrinking
Christian presence in the Israeli-occupied Palestinian
territories, has called a synod of bishops for Oct. 10-24
to discuss how churches can work together to preserve
Christianity's oldest communities.
The special assembly will consider a Vatican document
that decries "disregard for international law", human
rights abuses and an exodus of Christians fleeing conflict
in the Middle East.
The document cites the menacing conditions in Iraq,
"where the war has unleashed evil forces".
Post-invasion bloodshed and chronic insecurity have
spooked Iraqi Christians, many of whom feel they have no
future here.
Many of Iraq's Christians live in Baghdad and the
northern city of Mosul, a city that still has a significant
al Qaeda presence after the militants were pushed out of
other Sunni Arab areas in the past two years.
Um Rami has suffered, like many others, from the toll
of violence and instability. Her husband disappeared in
2007 after being taken into custody by what appeared to be
an Iraqi security forces unit, her eldest son was murdered
by militants back in 2005 and another son had been
kidnapped twice and released following large ransom
payments that left her finances in tatters.
"This is our country where we have lived. In all
honesty, (I feel comfortable) when I sit with my neighbour
and talk to her, I know her and she knows me and we like
each other is different to living abroad where I don't know
anything about the people there, I don't know their
customs. While we Iraqis know how to live with each other,
we are one family and there is no difference between Islam
and Christianity because we know each other and share the
same feelings. If I leave, how can I live?" said the mother
of four.
"We have suffered a lot to be honest, but there are a
number of reasons keeping us here, the main reason is I'm
waiting for my (missing) husband, hopefully he will come
back to us one day. We have hope in God, may he return for
the sake of his small children," she added.
Perhaps only half of what was once a vibrant Christian
community rooted here for centuries remains, although no
official figures exist.
And more Christians are leaving, despite a plunge in
overall violence in the past three years as bloodletting
between majority Shi'ites and once dominant Sunni Muslims
tapers off.
Every now and then Christians still come under attack,
especially in the northern province of Nineveh, considered
the last urban stronghold of al Qaeda Islamist militants.
It is not always clear whether they are targeted for
their faith, for the headlines their woes generate in
Western media, for their political allegiances or for other
reasons.

Louis Morqus, the head of the Hamurabi Organisation for
Human Rights, said hundreds have died in the violence, but
suggested other factors weigh in on the exodus of
Christians.
"More than 730 Christians have been killed, they were
from the Christian sects, the Syrians, Chaldeans, and
Assyrians. 730 Christians have been killed from 2003-2009
and thousands of families have been displaced until this
moment. There are families who are experiencing a very bad
economic status. So, due to the absence of infrastructure
in their areas, the absence of economic development and
unemployment, they have started to think of migrating
outside the country," he said.
In February, gunmen killed eight Christians in the
streets or at work in Mosul, prompting thousands of others
to flee.
The slayings occurred two weeks before an inconclusive
parliamentary election that has produced no new government
six months later. The stalemate threatens Iraq's fragile
security, along with most other aspects of life in a
traumatised nation.
Christians, like other minorities in northern Iraq,
feel insecure as the region's Arabs and Kurds feud over
land and oil.
Attacking Christians is an effective way to highlight
the shortcomings of Iraq's security forces, attracting more
media attention than the far higher casualties among Iraqi
Muslims.

Dopesheet: A large sinkhole which opened up in the night from Sunday to Monday (November 1) in the middle
of a housing area in Schmalkalden, Thuringia, is still growing.
The crater, which sucked a car into its depths, has a diameter of about 35 metres and a depth of 30 metres,
and more than 20,000 cubic metres simply vanished.
The reason for the phenomenon remains still unknown.
Experts assume that the hole has a natural cause. According to experts damages due to salt mine or a
subterranean bunker are out of the question.
Nobody has been reported missing or injured so far, but a helicopter is searching the area with a thermal
imaging camera.
So far 25 residents have had to leave their homes and the area has been broadly closed off because of
possible subsequent earth movements.
A large number of police and fire fighters are securing the area. After the landslide the supply of electricity and
water was stopped as a security precaution.
It has not yet been decided what measures should be taken to stabilize the sinkhole, although one option
could be filling it with gravel.

- aerial images from the hole
- close up of the crater
- night shots of fire fighters in front of the hole
- Vox pop (woman): "A bang ? and then a noise like very heavy rainfall ? like a storm, but no leaf moved. We
watched from the balcony, no raindrop and then we left the house in our pyjamas and then we saw the street
disappearing."
- Vox pop (man): Who would have ever thought that something like this would happen here on top of the hill?
It?s unimaginable. It?s like in a horror movie what happens here."
