than the norm. this is a legitimate safety concern with performance-enhancing drugs. if the safety concern wasn't there at all, i think we might be looking at performance- enhancing drugs in a very different way. that clearly is one issue. i think similarly that may apply a long time to show ... if you put a binocular implant, a binocular in your eye, you might get to watch that game well, but you might lose your eye at 60. when otherwise, it might last a lot longer. right? there is that safety aspect to it that is likely to play out in the bionic realm. that should naturally give us some pause, i think. actually, the other concern, of course, is, i think, what we touched upon earlier about the accessibility. i mean how accessible it is. do the poor have the same access as the any number of concerns about the idea of unnatural aspect of it. right? is it right for ... what are the concerns when we start going beyond what does natural mean and so forth? all of this somehow plays back into the safety i

schools can either reinforce social norms and societal norms or they can engage young people in the practice of learning skills to combat their own oppression and the internal lives. many schools that are century of thinking, better instilling in our children the knowledge that they need to be productive members of our society and citizens in our spaces are not the schools that are enforcing dress codes and turning people away because they are showing up with a hat on and for black girls in their particular nuances around that because a black girl may show up with a hat on because her hair is in the process of being braided and for those of us who have braids in the past or singles know that that can be a two day process and so if a girl shows up with a hat on, but have her hair is done and you tell her to take that had off, she will not take that hot off, so she will opt not to be in class and we don't have these conversations around the competencies, cultural competencies as well as the unintended or i won't even say unintended because at this point we have enough information to know so i

we have said we welcome the peaceful rise of china, consistent with international norms.n impoverished and collapsing china and we should want china to take on more responsibilities for its own people but also for a wide range of international problems and conflicts whether it's climate change or disaster release or dealing with things like ebola. but what we had said to the chinese is you have to recognize that with increasing power comes increasing responsibilities. you can't per sue policies that just advantage you now that you are a middle-income country in many ways even though you have a lot of poor people. you can't just export problems. you have got to have fair trade and not just free trade. you have to open up your markets if you expect other people to open up their markets. when it comes to issues related to security, if you sign a treaty that calls for ber national arbitration around issues it is not a reason for you to go around and flex your muscles. you have got to abide by international law. part of what i try today communicate is the united states arised

trying to get across to the president is, that when we bind ourselves to a bunch of international normsules, it's not because we have to, it's because we recognize that over the long-term, building a strong international order is in our interest and i think over the long-term will be in chesapeake's interest as well. so where we see them violating international rules and norms, as we have seen in some cases in the south china sea, or in some of their behavior when it comes to economic policy. we have been very firm. and we have indicated to them that there will be consequences. but what we have tried to emphasize with them if you are working within international rules and international norms, we could be partners and there's no reason we cannot be friendly competitors on the commercial side and important partners when it comes to dealing with the many international problems that threaten both of us. >> i got to ask you one question about the campaign. >> yeah. >> as you watch the support that donald trump has, and you watch where it comes there. i'm wondering what you make of it. becaus

the ultimate normative to principal is: god is love. and all the other laws are surpassed by god is love. and within the framework of an institution there are regulations that some of them so i may not be able to bypass it but still i can act in a loving way in spite of and that is what sometimes the same laws could be used, as john said, to hit on someone's head destroy their lives for the same thing could be used to build in someone. i always say openness does not begin in the head. openness has to take place in the heart, so that is what we talked about openness of the heart. small example not a long one. >>but you do know that there are people watching it will say that you guys are great, but we don't experience that. >>yeah, i think the problem is that, i agree with you and i guess what and nancy's working in interfaith work, i've interfaith work for you know, 25 years or more. and i think it's for me it's very helpful to have those conversations first. i think that we as different religions can sit there and battle about the natur

norms. the idea that russia and china live by norms, that somehow obama is going to educate them into these norms. russia is helping to commit genocide in syria and you expect that it's going to acquire etiquette on cyber? it is simply -- it's astonishing that we could have a president who believes this and explains why after eight years the great powers of the world starting with china and russia know that they are dealing with an adversary, the united states, its president who is simply one who does not earn any of their respect. >> chuck, there was another indignity, pretty gross real lion the scale of international diplomacy when the president of the philippines called president obama and others as inappropriate dinner time conversation called them the son of a wore for threatening, i should say, intervene in their human rights record to observe some frailties in that. >> that is a puzzling one. the new president of the philippines to cut a long story short has an extraordinary policy of

who are avoiding their taxes, we're doing a bunch of stuff at home and we want to coordinate better norms internationally. the one thing that we have to make sure we do is to move in concert with other countries because there's always a danger if one of us acts unilaterally that it's not just a matter of a u.s. company being impacted, but it may also have an effect in terms of our ability to collect taxes from that country so you might end up with a situation where they pay into europe and the u.s. treasury is short changed. if there's not coordination between various tax authorities you get a problem there in the same way we think there has to be coordination about even some of our closest allies racing to the bottom in terms of how they enforce their tax policies in ways that lead to revenue shifting and tax avoidance in our country. so this is not something that i think is going to be sorted out overnight. i do think that if we are to regain the trust of ordinary people that the system is not rigged and deal with these trends of inequality that have risen out of globalization and techn

a campaign that has all year long defied political norms and ignited levels of vitriol charted new history last night. the largest audience for a presidential debate in history. more than 80 million people watched on tv and millions more via the internet for the long awaited between hillary clinton and donald trump who are back on the road tonight doing what campaigns doing following debates, declaring victory. in this case, after a brawling 90 minutes that touched nearly every raw nerve between them. there's a lot to cover on this night after the debate. we start with nbc's peter alexander. >> reporter: the face-off, fierce, the contrast, unmistakable. hillary clinton's planned attacks. >> donald, i know you live in our own reality, but that is not the fact. free-wheeling jabs. >> she's got experience, that i agree, but it's bad, bad experience. >> reporter: tuning in,a i record 80 million plus pivotal viewers, watching moments that could last until election day. trump giving his critics more amnition on his hidden tax returns, appearing to acknowledge in many years, he payed zero tax ret

temperature wise, well below the seasonable norm. we only came in at 89 degrees today so the norm. we're a couple days away from fall. thursday is the official first day of fall. we're going to see cool conditions as we make our way into the afternoon hours will be 92 degrees cooling into the 80's and eventually into the 60's keeping showers in the forecast. we'll coo down to 74 degrees. 65 for safford. 50 for window rock. into tomorrow, seeing a bit of 93 for gila bend. 84 into winslow. 70 for the grand canyon. 76 for show low. slight chance of showers continuing into tomorrow. still cool but not as cool as we saw out there today. we'll be in the low 90's as we make our way into the first day of fall. we'll see pleasant and cooler numbers as we make our way into the weekend. >> that looks great. it is hard to believe. >> sneaky next week. >> she tried to cover that up in there. >>> a big makeover gets under way at phoenix mesa-gateway a new page of controversy for sheriff paul babeu. also known as rico funds. critics have said pcso's use of the foundation is like money laundering.

that in this area it is almost acceptable norm that signs are stolen and have been for years, but what is alarming is the rate. the democratic party to nice there is any organized effort t get rid of theni gop signs and also that there are several als been stolen and damaged. republican say a young woman part of a group that stole a large number of pump signsg g is resolved to adults adults an one juvenile are being cited. >> it is the new norm i guess i is pretty crazy. gop is urging homeowners to stand up for their rights by identifying those who still decides that follow through wit prosecutors. this is abnormal, people are trespassing on your property their take it awayspr your free speech and freedom of expressio need to fight back and people that this is happening. jack shea fox 8 news. >> the gop offers a reward for information leading to the arrest of those responsible. it was nice to let the cool breeze into our homes for the is just a beautiful day overall a great day to get things started. we had these 70s and 80s taken over the great lakes some shade of cool air beginning t

to keep immigration levels measured by population share within historical norms. >> some of these groupsieve that would mean a preference for white christian immigrants. white nationalist writer richard spencer cited long-ago legislation severely limiting immigrants from eastern, southern europe, africa, arabs and asians. trump is returning to the 1924 immigration act. immigrants will reflect the racial makeup of the country and white nationalist publisher jared taylor called the speech almost perfect. donald trump has tied our foolish immigration policies to every problem we have. trump has already been accused several times of encouraging bigoted or racist views. >> for a total and complete shutdown. >> reporter: for example, for his call for a ban on muslim immigrants. now he's pushing a somewhat different approach. >> applicants will be asked for their views about honor killings, about respect for women, gays and minorities, attitudes on radical islam. >> reporter: and his runningmate insist these policies are not about race. >> donald trump is saying we need to make sure the people

closer to the norm, fall-like conditions have been building on in. you notice time lapse photos showing the clouds. a bit of partial sun. most of the rain this evening has been in the line from keen to manchester and right around hampton and points south. right now, it's drifting away with a few left over sprinkles. lower part of the valley. rest of the night will feature dry weather and much cooler conditions than we've seen in quite some time. already 39 in pittsburgh. notice the wind flow out of the north and northeast. a cool air direction for us. most of the summer early fall, the winds have been out of the southwest. we'll be dragging in cooler air for the upcoming weekend. quite chilly. mid 30's will do it up north. back into the mid to upper 60's. very close to the average. likely a degree or two below the norm for the first time in over 30 days. that's right over 30 days. we've been talking about temperatures at or above the average. a lot of cool air in eastern canada. as it builds in tomorrow, it does kick off the chance for some frost spe

and when we bind ourselves to the a bunch of international norms and rules, it's not because we have to. it's because we recognize that over the long term, building a strong international order is in our interest. and i think over the long term will be in china's interest as well. where we see them violating international rules and norms as we have seen in some cases in the south china sea or in some of their behavior when it comes to economic policy, we've been very firm. we have indicated to them that there will be consequences. but what we have tried to emphasize is if you are working within international norms, then we should be partners. there's no reason that we cannot be friendly competitors on the commercial side and important partners when it comes to dealing with many international problems that threaten both of us. >> reporter: now it's not entirely clear what the conscious consequences will be dealing with china's actions. but the south china sea and maritime are areas of difference. but areas of agreement include climate change. we expect that to be another focus. both c

a norm at this point. i think it's a step in the right direction but it's obviously attenuated by that condition. >> the chinese have an ongoing dialogue where they are trying to establish a standard operating procedures in terms of when there is a crisis and when you need technical assistance and who you call and what are the hotlines and what are the methods to exercise that communication. i think that's helpful. at the end of the day there was a real sticking point between the u.s. and china who are making a lot of progress on the topic of internet sovereignty. it's a fundamental disagreement on whether or not states have sovereign rights over the internet and the ability to control the type of data that flows over the internet, how it secured and regulated and that is the biggest barrier to making progress. >> i wonder how sustainable a chinese policy is if the overall goal is to have a knowledge-based economy, how do do you do that and have complete control over everything? i think there's going to be

what's the status of that norm after tonight?> well, i think the status of that norm, if he is elected president, a lot of things change and that's probably one of them. that's going to be a change in this political system most likely. if he's defeated and especially if it's a reasonable margin, i think republicans will look back and say, this is not a happy year for us and let's have nominees in the future who do not behave that way. >> and michael, what about the conversation rachel and i were having at the top of the evening, talking about nixon/kennedy. and all kinds of aspects of nixon/kennedy. nixon's tyne for television viewers. but radio listeners believing that he had won on substance. what was an audio-only listener on sirius xm or regular radio tonight to think about what was going on there? >> i think the listener would say, why didn't he prepare about national security? you know, you think that, especially a republican candidate of all things, trying to sound and look like a president, the first thing you would do is

the norm for u.s. troops at the moment to be involved in this murky space between traditional all-out state on state conflict and peace. i can't see that changing. it's a huge institutional challenge for the military because the fact that these new kinds of threats, these new types of threats are merging doesn't mean that the old threats go away. they are still there. you still do have to worry about traditional state uses of military force. at the same time you also have to worry about all of this other in between stuff. that's an enormous challenge in terms of thinking about how we prepare. how any institution or nation operates there. i do think the new stuff is not going to go away. it's only going to get murky. the a salience of borders isn't going to increase. all the technological changes are pushing in the opposite direction and we are going to have to figure out both operationally for the military and legally and morally and politically how do we operate in a world, how to we preserve thei wor

we want to coordinate better norms internationally. the one thing we have to make sure we do is to move in concert with other countries because there's always a danger that if one of us acts unilaterally that it's not just a matter of a u.s. company being impacted but it may also have an effect in terms of our ability to collect taxes from the same company. you might end up with a situation where they pay into europe and u.s. -- the u.s. treasury is shortchanged. so if there's not some coordination between various tax authorities you have a problem there. in the same way there has to be coordination about even some of our closest allies racing to the bottom in terms of how they enforce their tax policies in ways that lead to revenue shifting and tax avoidavoidance our country. this is not something i think will be sorted out overnight. i do think that if we are to regain the trust of ordinary people that the system is not r rigged we have made some progress but not as much as we need to. my hope is that it's recognized. that they work

either that becomes the norm and that's a really scary world where everybody is acting that way or it serves as a wake-up call for us and way, whoa, you're right, we want to be the country, we want to be the country that we have been been. we want to be the country that sets the norm and setting the example that other people should file that would make the world better. we need to get out there. we need to be saying to other states, yeah, we are going to be in this peace war forever, so how do we collectively come up with some kind of international rules and institutions that both recognition that those threats are real but don't throw human rights out the window and let's figure it out. so i don't know which paths we are going to go down but i sure do hope it's the latter path. >> you are writing a book at a time, we are about to transition administration, people would be coming to you if they haven't already, should i go into government and follow your example and take my great principles and my background and try to make change, what do you tell people. what are the great things ab
