Tonight, a painful wait for family and friends. The hunt for a boy (13) missing after leaping off a bridge. The danger signs are out again. A shock for shoppers at a popular Christchurch mall. She's accused of running a fake security course. Developments in the case exposed by ONE News. And into the dragon's den. A challenge to combat discrimination against Asians in our communities. A hunt's wrapping up right now for a boy (13) missing after jumping off a railway bridge. It's now more than 24 hours since he leapt into the Waikato River in Huntly, landing on top of a friend. Kim Vinnell's been watching the search, and joins us now live. Kim. THE POLICE DIVE SQUAD FROM WELLINGTON IS HERE. THE FAMILY ARE ALSO THERE. THEY ARE HEARTNEED BY PEOPLE TURNING OUT FROM THE COMMUNITY. Even as this community pulls together, it's a gut-wrenching wait. The missing boy is Zharian Watkins (13). He was last seen jumping off this bridge into the Waikato River. He's now presumed drowned. Shattered. My heart is broke. I got the phone call and I just ran down here, jumped on the boat. I thought it wasn't true for a moment, but then when I found out it was true, I didn't know what to do. Teenager Raekwon Morgan, the boy with a bandage on his head, was the last to see Zharian alive. He's too traumatised to speak, but through his mother, he wanted to tell us what happened. He's jumped off. He's coming to the top of the water and something's hit him. When he's come up, all he's seen to the right of him was his mate floating past him, and that's when he realised that he's lost a good mate. About a dozen boys watched on. They say Zharian landed on Raekwon, who needed six stitches to his head. He'd seen a couple of his friends jump in to try and help him, try and save Zharian, but it was too late. Zharian was in his first year of high school. His family clutched his awards to show he was a good kid. He's called out for help. He saw a couple of his friends jump in, try and help him. Locals say this is the ninth death from this bridge in 10 years, and police know it's a popular spot. They'll come from school after working in those hot classrooms and they'll go down and jump in the water. The plea now is to avoid leaping from this bridge altogether. We would love to see some warning signs. The family were asking for cameras up that way. Anything is better than nothing. A warning everyone here wishes had been listened to before it came to this. So, Kim, how's the family holding up? ZHARIAN'S GRANDMOTHER HAS BEEN LIVING WITH THEM. IT'S A STRESSFUL TIME AS ZHARIAN'S MOTHER IS DUE TO GIVE BIRTH. Kim Vinnell reporting from Huntly. Safety standards are being examined after a teenage window cleaner survived a four-storey fall from an Auckland building. It's the third accident of its kind in just eight months. Amy Kelley has more. She survived a fall from the top of this 30m building, and tonight is in a stable condition in Auckland Hospital. Louisa Kuypers (18) is considered a very lucky girl. A fall from that distance, if it's not gonna break your back or kill you, it's gonna hurt. Newmarket office workers say Ms Clark had just started scaling the top of this Lion Breweries building when she dropped, along with a metal anchor used to attach herself to the roof. She was in a very critical condition when we arrived. She was fighting against us. Not just the possibility of a head injury, but also the other internal injuries that we can't physically see. It's the third industrial rope accident in eight months. A Wellington window washer fell from the fifth floor of this building last June, and in December, an abseiling performance artist plunged 14m down a wall in Auckland's Aotea Square. We're happy because nobody's died, but it's getting a little bit close at the moment. Three in a short time period, it's just not good enough. Industry Standards say anyone doing this work should use two anchors or two lines, one as a backup in case the first fails, and the furthest you should fall if that happens is 60cm. So for somebody to fall that far in a compliant system means that both anchors would have had to fail, which is highly unlikely. We tried contacting Louisa Kuypers' employer, a company called At Height, but our message wasn't returned. What happened here won't be known for sure until the Labour Department finishes investigating. Amy Kelley, ONE News There's another blow for quake-hit retailers in Christchurch. Part of a popular shopping mall's been closed. Engineers say the centre at Merivale is now too dangerous. But its shutdown shocked shoppers and retailers, as Ana Olykan reports. Right on opening time, nearly half the retailers here discovered they'd been shut down. If you could just move back... Thank you. Merivale Mall's partial closure left some staff in tears and shock, but with no option but to ship out. We just got to work this morning and that was the first. The boss didn't even know either. Sergios Menswear is no stranger to this. It's their third move forced by quakes. We'll know more on Monday. That's all we've been told. Shoppers were also left confused. When did that happen? An hour ago. The building managers, Tower Investments, were left scrambling. We're more than happy to talk to you in a few minutes in a formal session. They never did, but in a statement say... About half the mall ` that's 18 shops, two kiosks and all entrances to the supermarket ` are closed till further notice. The problem's come to light through the Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Authority demanding detailed engineering assessments on 8000 buildings. CERA has been informed of what is going on here at the Merivale Mall. I'm told a CERA engineer was on site here today. While not directly involved, it's very happy with the course of action the mall is taking. Some shops you get to through the main entrances and alongside are still open. You're allowed to stay? Yes, we are. Management says the safety of shoppers is paramount. Retailers are now waiting to hear more. Ana Olykan, ONE News. A short drive away from the mall, they're celebrating the opening of more stores. The latest container retail space is on a site where a historic homestead once stood. The new stores include long-standing Christchurch businesses left homeless by the quakes. It was very important to have people that would blend well together and work well together and was a little self-serving. We loved the cafe and loved the clothes shop. We worked very hard to get them to come here and reform here. Some materials from the homestead have been recycled in the project. A businessman who's raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for the Canterbury cause has just been named Britain's NZer of the year. But Kent Gardner is also sounding a warning about the effect Greece and the Eurozone's woes will have on the recovery. This from our Europe correspondent, Garth Bray. The Greek government may be close to broke, but you can bet they're still paying police here. Just look at what they're barely holding back. Political leaders here have told the people they need to cut 15,000 public service jobs and slash the minimum wage 22%. Watching this you wonder if they'll actually do it. Their problems could be ours too. ALL CHANT HAKA Take this charity dinner in London for well-heeled NZers. Kent Gardner is here to collect an award for helping to raise nearly $700,000 towards rebuilding Christchurch, in a single day. His company manages $8 billion worth of property in Europe. It's not easy right now. When we're making investments, we're looking for bank funding, and banks are finding it difficult to fund new projects, fund new investments, and there's uncertainty around that process, as well. All that uncertainty in world markets won't make the reconstruction efforts in Christchurch any easier, they say. It's just slowly eating away at that confidence, and so people are sitting back, they're waiting to see what's happening in the markets. Each project, each investment takes time. This is the time in the market to plan, and to get oneself ready for making those investments, seeing what the opportunities are. The good news is they're starting to release some of the $4 million they've raised here for projects in Christchurch. It'll be some help while the ground's still shaking and the market's quaking at what's going on in Greece. There's a fear tourists will be put off by the latest fatal attack on one of our endangered marine mammals. The carcass of a sea lion's been found by conservationists on a beach near Dunedin. Max Bania has more. This is the last time this juvenile NZ sea lion was seen alive. It was just basically a young male with a small hole in his side, but he was clearly uncomfortable and unwilling to move, and it was obviously very sensitive. He was suffering a gunshot wound. His carcass was found three weeks later on a beach near Dunedin, with few clues as to his killer. The finger often points to fishermen, who feel that sea lions are competing for the fish they're trying to catch. Are they competing for fish? I wouldn't think so. There's only 70 or so sea lions around Otago Peninsula, so the chances of that small number catching a large number of fish... It shouldn't be competition at all. It comes barely a year after 23 fur seals were clubbed to death near Kaikoura. In 2005, All Black Andrew Hore was fined after admitting killing a fur seal from a boat in Otago Harbour. From a tourism perspective, this isn't a great look, is it? No. Well, I'm regularly telling tourists about these sorts of events ` about dog attacks and shooting of sea lions and things like that, and they are appalled at the senselessness of it. South island beaches are home to just 150 or so sea lions, and just five were born here on the Peninsula last year, so the loss of even one is a devastating blow. Another species in that category are the Kakapo or the Maui's dolphin, so imagine if someone shot one of those species. Police too are investigating what they're calling a mindless act. All we can do is get information out to the public. I've circulated in the area ` all the schools, public noticeboards, just to jog people's memories to see if they did see something. The maximum penalty for shooting a sea lion is six months' jail. Max Bania, ONE News. A stretch of State Highway 2 in Hawke's Bay is about to reopen seven hours after a fatal crash. One person's died in the two-car smash between Nuhaka and Morere. Two others have serious injuries. A woman's facing legal action for leaving students with worthless qualifications following a ONE News investigation. Our Pacific correspondent revealed the course for security guards wasn't registered. Barbara Dreaver with this update. This is the woman at the centre of an investigation ` Mary-Anne Vaafusuaga, otherwise known as Mary-Anne McKenzie. She ran the so-called Genesis International College of Security that claimed to be accredited to NZQA. It's an offence to issue a false qualification. Those are false qualifications, and NZQA will be taking action under the Education Act. Not only did Vaafusuaga give out fake certificates, she also illegally photocopied materials for her course from other providers. And there's more. She's also given herself a fake qualification. There's even a glaring similarity between the fake certificate she's made out to herself and the fake certificates she gave to the students. It has no degree of acceptability whatsoever. It is false. They are not authorised to the company. It's breached many, many aspects of NZ law. Vaafusuaga continues to deny she's done anything wrong in front of the cameras... I don't have a fake school, no. ...and on the phone,... NZQA has never heard of you. That's... That's bull, because the guy` If you don't mind, you can ring my lawyer. ...and even by text. Vaafusuaga asked us to interview her at her office and texted us an address, so we went there, but ` you guessed it ` it's not her office address and the people there have never heard of her. But there's good news for the students who spent six months of their time and hundreds of dollars on a worthless course. C4, a registered training provider, has offered them training free of charge. We are trying to raise standards in the industry, and here we are finding that people are actually lowering them, so we are happy to step in there. And the students say they are happy to take them up on the offer. Barbara Dreaver, ONE News. A challenge is being issued tonight for NZers to show more understanding towards the Asians among us. It comes as a survey by the Human Rights Commission finds Kiwis believe Asians are the race most discriminated against. Arrun Soma has details. They're preparing for a party ` Wellington's annual Chinese New Year celebrations. It's a chance for Asian communities to get together; a chance for us to find out if they feel welcome in NZ. It kinda feels like you don't belong. You obviously feel different. Attacks on Asian people here are well documented. Those we spoke to say, while discrimination isn't so common any more, it still exists. Just because you're Asian nd you're driving doesn't mean that you're a crap driver. Filipino Bill Tagupa has been on the receiving end. It was a bunch of us Filipinos, and there was this Maori guy who was there, and he kinda shouted out that we shouldn't be speaking in our language because we are not in our land. A Human Rights Commission survey shows that of the different groups in NZ, three quarters of Kiwis think Asian people are discriminated against the most. I think we've got some way to go in terms of welcoming and recognising and acknowledging a very significant part of our own population. NZ's Race Relations Commissioner says Asians have topped this list for the past five years. He says that in itself is worrying, with one in 10 people living in NZ of Asian decent. And he's singling out the public sector. All government departments should have a strategy for their engagement with Asian communities, and most of them don't at this point. This event first started to break down barriers. I believe out of understanding comes acceptance. If you give respect, you will get respect. The year of the dragon is a good time to start. Arrun Soma, ONE News. Still to come on ONE News ` the violence in Syria spreads. Dozens are killed by bomb attacks targeting security forces in the country's second largest city. Intimate photographs of the royal family are revealed after being kept secret for more than six decades. And back in full voice ` soul singing sensation Adele's remarkable recovery from surgery. At least 28 people have been killed and hundreds wounded following two suicide bombings in Syria. The explosions struck outside security compounds in the second city of Aleppo. It's the worst violence to hit the country's commercial capital, which until now had been relatively calm in the midst of the uprising. The BBC's Bridget Kendall has this report. A gaping crater where one of the bombs went off in Aleppo, outside a base for Syrian security troops. Mangled wreckage and rubble suggests the extent of the blast. The BBC was with the journalists shown round here by Syrian Government officials, who cast the blame on what they called 'terrorist gangs'. (SPEAKS ARABIC) TRANSLATOR: These criminal acts committed by those groups will not prevent us from continuing our efforts in order to crush terrorists in this city. No one has claimed responsibility, and rebel activists blamed a Government plot ` designed, they said, to discredit the opposition. TRANSLATOR: Any explosions that are reported by Syrian TV, we consider they are ready to film it immediately. We hold responsibility entirely at the hands of the Syrian regime. All morning, Syrian state TV reported from both bomb sites ` the other at a military intelligence complex ` reinforcing President Assad's claim he's up against terrorists trying to tear the country apart. It's an ominous thought for Syrians still loyal to him and scared of what could happen next. GUNFIRE Meanwhile in Homs, more amateur video today of continued shelling by Government forces. And tonight, these American satellite images are allegedly of other Syrian military deployments towards Homs and other towns. The UN Security Council is struggling for a solution to end the violence, with Russia accusing the west of inciting the crisis and arming the rebels. Argentina has accused the United Kingdom of sending a nuclear-armed submarine to the Falklands and has complained to the UN over what it describes as Britain's militarisation of the disputed south Atlantic islands. The British ambassador to the UN has refused to comment on the claims, but UK officials say the accusations are 'absurd'. UN chief Ban Ki-moon is calling on both sides to avoid an 'escalation' in tensions over the region which has been heightened by the discovery of oil reserves in Falkland's waters. The two countries went to war in 1982 over the British overseas territory. They've been kept secret for more than 60 years, but now new intimate photographs have emerged of the royal family to coincide with the Queen's Diamond Jubilee. Photographer Kenneth Clayton was commissioned to take pictures of the new queen and her family in 1952, but refused to give them up during his lifetime. The BBC's Fiona Trott takes a look. A first glimpse inside a very private album. Prince Charles cuddling his sister, Anne, and already revealing an interest in horticulture. It seems it may have been a tiring photo shoot for the Prince, but then some light relief with their toys and books. I can hear him saying it now. 'Just wave,' and they did. They're wonderful memories for the photographer's family who are now releasing these precious photos. Kenneth Clayton even snapped one for himself with all three of them in a mirror. He told me all about the fact that he'd taken the picture in the mirror. He'd got Charles in there, and he was always worried that he had done it, but he took the chance and got the picture of Charles and Anne with him, so he was very delighted about that. And I think he was pleased with the pictures as well. The collection also includes this. It's believed to the first formal photograph of Elizabeth as queen. It was used by the artist Margaret Lindsay Williams for an official portrait. One expert says the collection is unique. The children have been allowed to just adopt the poses that are comfortable for them, and that the early picture of the Queen, she's made to look like a film star. I've never seen her looking quite so relaxed. So secret were the photos, that they've been hidden from public view for six decades. Now they're a perfect souvenir for the Diamond Jubilee. Queen Elizabeth was aged 26 when she posed for those pictures. European shippers are paying a high price for the continent's cold snap. They're losing millions of dollars because a lengthy stretch of the continent's busiest waterways is stuck in the longest freeze in recent memory. Huge chunks of ice have been seen floating down the Danube in southern Romania, while water close to the banks remains iced over, crippling shipping. Elsewhere in Romania, heavy snowfall has cut off roads and left many villages isolated after temperatures dropped to minus-25 degrees Celsius. To our weather now. Not minus, but plus-25 for some of us, Jim. Lots of fine weather too. But frontal debris leaked a bit of moisture over the Far North. For weather, see tvnz.co.NZ Good shot here of heating over Auckland's Waiheke Island today. It cooked up this big convective cloud. Your Sunday forecast coming up after sport, settled with a few smudges. Coming up on ONE News ` It's set to be the most highly anticipated performance at this year's Grammys, but will the voice of a generation sound the same after throat surgery? And it was all about big air in the capital today as the crowds flocked to see some of the world's top skaters in action. The singer Adele took the world by storm with her distinctive voice last year, but she was forced to end 2011 in silence. Throat polyps and bleeding vocal chords threatened to shatter her soulful sound, but science and surgery have combined to bring Adele back to full voice. # Finally, I can see... # Adele, called the voice of her generation. @ We could have had it all... # But this weekend, there's a remarkable comeback. America's best-selling singer was nearly silenced forever by a bleeding vocal chord ` a career in jeopardy. She will perform for the first time in five months at the Grammys, Sunday night. The full-voiced Brit cancelled her recent American tour, not allowed to talk, much less sing, apologising to fans with a handwritten note. This until she came to Boston's Dr Steven Zeitels for microscopic laser surgery. This type of microsurgery uses a fibre-optic camera that delicately scans the vocal chords for damage. Besides Adele,... # Good to know it's all a game... # ...pop singer John Mayer,... # I love this girl... # ...country singer Keith Urban and rocker Steven Tyler have all had the surgery to bring back their voices. These are actually Tyler's vocal chords you're watching, courtesy of National Geographic, who put a camera down his throat as he sang the hit Dream On. But the microsurgery allows one to remove the mess without disturbing the vocal chord. This remarkable surgery is not just used on singers. It's used on throat-cancer patients, and with radiation has a 90% cure rate. But for Adele, it's a 100% comeback. Now that the vocal chords are vibrating much better, it'll be a cleaner sound and I... She's well-healed. I anticipate that she's gonna give a wonderful performance. The voice of a generation is repaired by surgery from the next. Adele's been nominated for six Grammy awards. Go to tvnz.co.nz for live updates from the awards show on Monday. A warning's been issued by the Canterbury District Health Board after the discovery of a potentially toxic algae in three Canterbury rivers. The algae was discovered in the Ashburton, Waimakariri and Ashley Rivers. It looks like dark brown mats, seen here on the left, and can cause skin rashes, nausea and stomach cramps among other symptoms. Boiling the water doesn't kill the toxin, but town drinking supplies are still deemed to be safe. Wellington might be better known for its brisk air, but today the capital was all about big air. Some of the world's top skateboarders are in town and have been wowing the crowds with a spectacular show. Question: are these coolest sportsmen in the world? Answer: duh. Rocking Wellington's Bowlarama skate comp, part of the international pro-circuit for the fourth year. Oh, man, I love it. It's one of my favourite cities, one of my favourite bowls. If you don't know much about bowl skating ` and let's face it, most of us don't ` it's about speed,... tricks... and one all-important quality. Style. I mean, how you look on a board. Is it like water? Does it flow? Or is it jerky? That's still really a huge part in an aspect of judging. Like X Games gold medallist Brazilian Pedro Barros, who's been ranked number one in the world,... ...and Kevin Kowalski, who's also at the top of his game. It's a multimillion-dollar sport now, but bowl skating had humble origins in California in the '70s when a severe drought meant many swimming pools were drained, and skaters found a different use for them ` with pain as an occupational hazard. I slid out and broke my arm. That one sucked, but I was only off for a few days. Although the crowd came to see the overseas stars carve up, several Kiwis were also competing. So what's the chance of a local world champion in years to come? As long as the city of Wellington is, you know, as helpful as they are to the community, giving back to skateboarding, it's inevitable and extremely cool. Looking at our top stories tonight ` the hunt's been called off for a teenage boy missing after jumping off a railway bridge. It's now more than 24 hours since Zharian Watkins (13) leapt into the Waikato river in Huntly. He's now presumed drowned. Parts of Christchurch's Merivale mall remain shut down this evening after engineers found the building is structurally vulnerable. Retailers scrambled to remove stock and evacuate along with shoppers this morning with more than half the mall cordoned off until further notice. Jenny-May's here with sport now, and an extraordinary story coming out of the NBA? We'll have more on 'Linmania' after the break, plus who are the winners of the 30th running of our most gruelling multi-sport event, the Coast to Coast? More disappointment for the Fed express, this time at home. And the NZ seven's team get the best possible start in Las Vegas. Kia ora, welcome back. Husband and wife Richard and Elina Ussher are on track to pull off a unique double in today's famous coast-to-coast endurance race. Richard's claimed the title for the fifth time, and Elina looks to have an unbeatable lead in the women's race. For the latest, let's join Blair Norton live from the finish line at Sumner Beach in Christchurch. ELINA HAS A 25 MINUTE LEAD. IT'S A FANTASTIC DAY FOR THEM How fitting that in the 30th running of the Coast to Coast, the inaugural champion Joe Sherriff and defending champion Richard Ussher should meet. How are you going? How are you? Are you well? Are you going to win this one? I hope so. I'll be trying my damndest. Ussher's wife, Elina, also a favourite to win the women's race which would seal a first husband-and-wife double. It's good when it's over. Cool, still conditions met 139 competitors for the first short run and 55km cycle. Richard Ussher moving into a six-man breakaway that dropped to four, nearing the end of the ride. Further back, Elina Ussher and fellow former champion Fleur Pawsey were keeping a close eye on each other. On to the 33 K mountain run, and it was Braden Currie who led a chase pack of Richard Ussher, Dougal Allen, James Coubrough and Jeremy McKenzie. Currie leading at big boulders and over the top of Goat Pass, with Ussher 3 minutes back in third, while his wife led the women. Aussie-based Currie was first out of the mountains, and after a short 15 K cycle, it was onto the Waimakariri River for the often race-defining paddle. So with 67 K's of paddling and a 70 K cycle left, Braden Currie has a 2-minute lead from Richard Ussher, with James Coubrough another minute and a half back. Elina Ussher built a lead of more than 17 minutes on the river. Richard Ussher with an imposing six-minute lead starting the final cycle leg. The 35-year-old held on to win his fifth Coast to Coast title. THAT WAS HIS 5TH. HE BEAT THE LEADER BY 19 MINUTES WE'RE JOINED BY RICHARD IT'S SPECIAL TO WIN FIVE THE RACE WENT AS PLANNED? I HAD TO BE TACTICAL. THE YOUNG GUYS WERE QUICKER, BUT DIDN' HAVE THE ENDURANCE Danny Lee is tied for third after shooting a one-over par 73 at Spyglass in the AT&T tournament that's played over three courses in California. At eight-under par, he's four shots off the lead, which is held by Charlie Wi who enjoyed an eagle and five birdies, including this along the cliff tops and over the canyon at the 8th. The Korean posted a three-under 69 after coping comfortably with a wet and gloomy Pebble Beach course. The brightest feature undoubtedly was Ricky Fowler, following his rescue orange outfit in the first round with this canary yellow number. Good gracious me. That's, I believe, depleted uranium. Adopting a more restrained dress code, Tiger Woods remains well in contention at six-under. This one of his four birdies in a second round of 68 on the Monterey course. The NZ Sevens side has made it two from two on the opening day of the Las Vegas event. The winners from last week's Wellington round have just won their pool match against Japan 40-5. What a big sell that was. Clever delay by them. It's a hot running ball again. There's Halai. This time he got past him. And here he goes, ranking up another try. Nice snappy pass by Malo. Here he goes. Jonathan Malo ` his first try for NZ in the world of Sevens. Earlier Tomasi Cama extended his position as the leading scorer in the series, picking up two tries in the 31-5 win over Australia. After the one-sided mismatches between the Blackcaps and Zimbabwe, Australia and Sri Lanka have served up the perfect antidote with a down-to-the-wire tri-series thriller at the Waca in Perth. The video was required viewing for Zimbabwe's fielders. Skills galore from both sides. Sri Lanka first. Oh, what a catch ` unbelievable. Caught and bowled. Colin Slaker is making a difference here. Safe hands were Sri Lanka's saviour in slowing the Aussies' score. Hussey ` wanted to go leg-side, but got the leading edge to short cover. Canny cricket in every department nipped out partnerships. Oh, and gone. Dan Christian was charging. Only Michael Clarke ventured past 50 before being snared by his fellow skipper off Angelo Mathews. Gone. Nicely taken ` the skipper of Sri Lanka, Jayawardene. Australia all out for just 231, and Sri Lanka moving along nicely until.... Oh no. No, he's got him too. A middle order collapse ensued. Got him. That's it. They didn't need that. Sri Lanka nine down needing 18 off the last over. This could be a four. Mathews clearly up for it. Oh, he's hit that beautifully. That's all the way for six. What a magnificent shot. But with a boundary beckoning, they were out in both senses. Oh, straight up. Who's gonna catch this? He's got him. Australia win by five runs. Martin Tasker, ONE News. The man who helped bring All Whites' football captain Ryan Nelsen to English premier league club Spurs might not be at the club himself for much longer. Harry Redknapp is shaping as the favourite to take over the England job after the departure of Italian Fabio Capello. His exit comes after disagreeing with the Football Association's decision to strip John Terry of the captaincy in the wake of racial abuse claims. Capello insists he was misunderstood. (SPEAKS ITALIAN) ...misunderstanding. Redknapp was not keen to give his opinion on the situation. Difficult one. You're trying to get me out of the job before I get in it. LAUGHTER Redknapp already has the endorsement of England players Wayne Rooney and Rio Ferdinand, with the FA hoping to appoint a permanent replacement before the European championships in June. Meanwhile, Roger Federer has been upset in a Davis Cup tie between Switzerland and the USA. Federer was all smiles as he faced off against American John Isner. The world number three hadn't lost a match for his country in eight years. But in a four-and-a-half-hour battle, Isner outplayed the 16-time grand slam champion winning 6-2 in the fourth set. I played really well today. It was probably the biggest win of my career. Actually, it was the biggest win of my career. The Americans have a 2-0 lead going into the second day of the tie. One week ago, basketball player Jeremy Lin was sleeping on his brother's couch as an undrafted Harvard grad. He warmed the bench for the New York Knicks, but had little respect. Seven days on, he's a phenomenon and one of the biggest threats in the NBA. Charlotte Bellis with his latest performance against the Lakers. Call it what you want ` Lin-sanity, Lin-mania, Lin-credible ` Jeremy Lin is the NBA's latest poster boy. I didn't know you could turn Lin into so many things. Lin also probably didn't know he could go toe-to-toe with Kobe Bryant. The Lakers squared off against the Knicks today with all eyes on the Lin-Bryant showdown. Knocks it down and a foul. With two players injured and one on bereavement leave, Lin got his call-up a week ago and went from zero to hero. Sensational play from Jeremy Lin. Just in the knick of time, he's got New York back on track. They were two and eleven. In the last week Lin has helped them to three in a row, and at Madison Square Garden, the Lakers were next on his list. Lin on the drive. Backs it in. Bryant has the highest points average in the league, but Lin's crew shut him down. Kobe Bryant continues to struggle. The Laker lead man did manage a late glimpse of the form that got him a record 61 points here in 2009. Kobe Bryant again. But it wouldn't be enough. The Lakers couldn't stop the Lin-sanity going down 92 to 85. Backs it in. Wow! The NBA's only Asian-American and only Harvard grad owning 38 of those points. The New York Knicks fans have been looking for two things. They have been looking for a point guard and a hero, and they've found them both in Jeremy Lin. Lin for three. Bang! At 23, he's fought stereotypes, dreamed big and achieved the unthinkable. This is it right here. This is my dream. Fans now hoping the super Lin-tendo isn't a one-week wonder. Just thankful it's turning out the way it is. Charlotte Bellis, ONE News, By the way, Harvard has turned out more US presidents than it has NBA players. The White House leads 8 to 3! After the break ` more of summer as we know it. Jim's talking more clouds than sun. And astronauts capture a unique view of a spectacular celestial light show in the night skies above Earth. Hi, again. Guess you'll be accustomed to a shady summer, so you won't be disappointed with the forecast. For weather, see tvnz.co.nz So no baddies, but those narking showers chip away mostly at the north and west. There's been unprecedented views of the celestial light show Aurora Borealis in many places lately, but none quite like this. These time-lapse images of the glowing phenomenon, also known as the Northern Lights, were captured by astronauts on board the International Space Station. The glowing green light display could be seen above Mexico and as far north as Canada at the end of last month. Intense solar activity has meant the Aurora Borealis has appeared in places it's not usually seen. And that's ONE News this Saturday. From us and all the ONE News team, goodnight.
