these notions of the brain whether or not it is time as the brain currently tells time. in relation to language again is very interesting that you mentioned early on that animals don't seem to be able to have a grasp of the past, present and future as much as humans. they're more pleasant based. i tend to agree with that. that's great about the degree to which that is true or not but the question is as well how did humans to acquire that ability and much of that, some people believe, believe it by metaphors or understanding space. some people believe that human relies on part of our ability to understand space. this explains why we, in line with, in most linkages, spatial metaphors to talk about time. it's a very long day. in hindsight, that was a bad idea. or your thinking i hope this talk ends shortly. this notion that we use spatial metaphors is again, naturally specialize in time. specialization of time whether it's true in the universe or not is a very natural phenomenon and a couple of investigators studied this very common example that i left the audience. so, next

front page of "the new york times," trump fires comey amid russia inquiry." printing the letter showing that fired effective -- immediately. "i never live up -- nevertheless concur that you are not able to effectively lead and it is essential that we find new leadership for the fbi that restores public trust and conference -- confidence in the law enforcement mission." that tookn the firing washington by surprise yesterday, we turn to katie bell williams, staff writer for "the hill," joining us on the phone. talk to us more about the reasoning and the timing, specifically, here. katie: the administration is saying that this is over comey's handling of hillary clinton, the investigation into the clinton private in l server. they said that his decision to publicly announce so much detail in july, the sort of bombshell letter that he sent in october to congress announcing that he had more letters, they are saying that this behavior is the reason they hit the road. what you are seeing from democrats are a lot of questions about the timing here. why now? these acti

amid this backdrop, the timing of the termination is in question. word of the firing came just minutes after the fbi issued a clarification of comey's remarks at a senate hearing last week where he mischaracterized the numbering of e-mails huma abedine had manually forwarded to her husband's computer. and in fact direct toy compaor overall handling ever the server investigation and including his own on decision to hold a news conference instead of leaving to loretta lynch at the time, that was the focus of deputy attorney general rod rosen tinesteinrose recommending his removal, but of course the president himself only referencing the russia investigation in his letter tacoto kcompany comey firing him. >> so the abrupt firing of james company any triggering shock be and outrage all around the beltway. many republicans joining the calls for an independent investigation. ryan nobles is live with the reaction of lawmakers. what are you learning, ryan? >> reporter: good morning. much of capitol hill still reeling from this bombshell news about james com

the timing of this comes as mr. ump has a scheduled meeting this morning at the white house russian foreign minister. reporting live in northwest washington, suzanne kennedy. this morning all eyes are on comey's replacement. larry: sam? sam: what comes next, because whoever that is they will face unprecedented scrutiny in the senate when it comes time for confirmation. republicans and democrats saying success must have russian that ability, zero connection to trump professionally or politically. as most of us know, the president treasures loyalty but in this case he is going to have to find an outsider. immediately became the temporary director and he could be made permanent, but he is also under review for his ties to hillary clinton. his wife received campaign funding from a clinton fundraiser back in 2015. today the new york times -- "the new york times" reporting that a successor could be named as early as this friday. we will see what happens. mary, back upstairs to you. larry: dave brat and is the latest lawmak

so i think, the timing is odd. rom a campaign point of view, we think that before this terrible bombing happened, theresa may was on the back foot, having to make this huge u—turn on social care policy. it strikes me as surprising and interesting that labour got stuck in today on foreign policy, which is not traditionally their strong suit, particularly under jeremy corbyn who was not seem to have this orthodox or sort of mainstream views. they choose to go big on that as the topic with which to resume their campaign. labour's traditional strengths are health and education. education is a massive issue. we got a letter from our children state school this weekend, pleading for money, saying, we are going to be in real terms 20% down from where we were five years ago. that is catastrophic for a school that wants to provide a good service or its peoples. i really think that if corbyn hammers that home, he has got an advantage because may looks, some people are calling her the may bot. she looks like somebody who has tu

it's not the only time the white house struggled to get its story straight. the administration's message can you say daily if not hourly. so who do the person people trust the president or his spokes people or neither? president trump says trust them all, just don't blame them if they get it wrong. he tweeted with lots of things happening, it is not possible for my surgates to stand at podium with perfect accuracy wmt more on this, let's bring in "hardball"'s roundtable. a senior writer with the wraug washington post and a senior congressman from tennessee harold ford and msnbc an lest. that's the question. do they have a credibility problem? do you trust everything the white house says whether it comes from the president or the pokes people? is there a point to those press briefings? >> i think they are trying very hard. the president's comments certainly don't inspire confidence, not only in his words or their words. if you are sean spicer or miss huckabee sanders, he basically said, look, i am going to send you out there, if i change my mind or new facts c

i think he was president at the time. the letter was passed on to a andendent in the family those family members tried to keep the letter together over the years and used different kinds of tape to put the letter back together as it fell apart from handling and being folded and being opened and folded. there are different campaigns of tape here and here, and these orangey spots were covered in tape. when the letter came to us, it was framed and had clearly been on display for many years. there was a lot of light damage that was also causing problems, advancing the staining of the residual adhesive from the tape, also making the paper very brittle. adhesiveeed to remove and paper that is causing damage. the difficulty in this case was that the paper had degraded so thatfrom being on display working with it, even as you are removing the tape, praising it -- bathing it to take out the acidic degradation products, the paper starts to fall apart and break. after it is washed and dried, you have to spend a lot of time putting th

it is almost viewed by the population at the time as a miracle event. >> american history tv is looking at the revolutionary war in new jersey. coming up, we retrace the steps of soldiers who fought in the battle of trenton. mr. siegel: the battle of trenton is exceptionally significant in the time of 1776 because the american revolution was on the edge of being extinguished. washington's army had reached its lowest point, he was in danger of losing a lot of his troops and his enlistments. he had just lost several significant battles in manhattan and in the new york area. and had retreated across new jersey, hoping to increase the numbers of his army while passing through new jersey and the opposite happened. he lost troops. the analogy i like to use is that the rebellion at that point was like a candle that was about to be blown out. washington would retreat across the delaware river and set up his forces in pennsylvania in the new town area, and it's there that he developed a plan to use his army before they all went home, and to launch an attack against the german garrison there was

it was also one of the hardest times, because at the same time, unionization started to come into theown and company and infiltrate what they had laid the groundwork of this beneficial relationship between workers and the company owner. unionization began to creep in. there were issues of needing to upgrade. if you can imagine, steel made in cold run furnaces needing to turn over to electric everywhere. and the competition for the same product. once the product is out there, steel began to move overseas in terms of manufacturing. there were wonderful things about that heyday, but also difficulties. in 1947, as the world war is starting to wind down and business is changing, the roebling company makes a decision to begin selling the homes it owns here in roebling to the workers. those who live in the houses can purchase them if they want to buy them. if not, others can purchase homes. ultimately, that was a decision to begin the work of divesting themselves, of selling the company. within several years, 1953, the roebling company sells its company to colorado fuel and iron, they take o

[applause] >> five. >> thank you very much and for coming out i do appreciate it. so to talk about the book i'm interested in hearing your questions as she mentioned i have been at npr 31 years and to cover just about everything. after a long stretch of covering climate change in the 1990's and 2000's my boss said how about going back to biomedical research? i said i'd better brushup so one of the first things i did look at the nih budget i was startled to discover it had been undergoing severe gyrations from 2003 since 1998 which seemed like good news for biomedical research but after 2003 the dollars flattened out in the spending power a decreased by 20 percent so i thought this is not a good formula for things to be happening. fifty% increase of academic labs for biomedical research and basically congress said w

we can detect that 99% of the time. the best ophthalmologists do it 90% of the time. we so good at it? we see more eyes. we can train the computer. there is a lot of reason to think this kind of intelligence, as we say, will allow things which are either repetitive or require deep pattern analysis will be much, much better. david: so do you think the united states government is better at cyber terrorism, if that is the right word, than other governments are against us? eric: the u.s. government has never acknowledged it plays an active role in cyberspace and is active offensive role, although the people who might be our targets have certainly been claiming we have been doing it. the consensus of people that do not know any of the details, which includes me, is america is very good at this, but other countries are as well. the one that i worry about the most right now is actually russia. if you look at their actions in the last few months, they have done a number of very publicized invasions, attacks, and alterations which can only be understood as cyber activity, and t

one, the "new york times" story. anybody who followed trump on the campaign would be shocked to know that he said something endiscreet to the russian ambassador and the russian foreign minister in the oval office. so doing it in the oval office takes it to a new level. if bob mueller's investigation shows there was collusion between trump associates and russia, and that one of those associates is in the white house, that really could spell the end of the trump presidency. that story resides in a different category and is extremely significant. i don't think we can emphasize that enough. >> i think she's right. nonof russ surprise that had donald trump called someone a nut job. but the idea that he inferred to the russians that the firing of james comey releases pressure on him as it relates to the russia investigation, that takes to it a different level. >> it takes to it a different level. yes. he shared highly classified information about the russians and noted right to do in terms of intelligence etiquette and beca

you made 92 the last time, you only have 91. i would say, that's the best grade in the class, and she would say i didn't ask you what the class did. i want to know what dorothy height did and what caused you to go back. and i remember one time a teacher came to us, was from the university of pittsburgh and he came to our high school. he was our chemistry teacher. at the end of the semester he gave me an 89. so i went into him and i said, well, my mother won't understand this. i cannot take this grade home. i was wondering, what did i fail or what did i do wrong? he said, no, you did very good. he said, well, you tell your mother i don't give anyone more than 89. well, i almost wanted to take him home with me because i knew that my mother would immediately question. but i think also what was helpful to me was that when i -- that i always had kind of an inner drive and wanted to go to school, go to college. i think for me it was helpful that i was able to sign in a historical contest and my english teacher helped me to prepare. but

i yield back the balance of my time. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman yields back the balance of his time. for what purpose does the gentleman from california seek recognition? >> address the house for one minute. revise and extend my remarks. the speaker pro tempore: without objection, the gentleman is recognized for one minute. >> mr. speaker, i rise today to pay tribute to michael behar, who will be leaving the house permanent select committee on intelligence where he has served as general counsel since september, 2012 and staff director and general counsel since early 2015. mr. schiff: because of michael's commitment to always finding a way to yes, he has helped guide hpsci to a round of remarkable legislative success over the past two years. in a city of tacticians, michael's great gift is his ability to look at things strategicically, even while reacting in real time to emerging matters at hand. under his leadership of the hpsci democratic staff, we have passed two successive bipartisan intelligence authorizat

not just because of the timing, but because of the justification. it is striking to me the attorney general, when had recused himself from involvement in the investigation into possible collusion between the trump campaign and administration and russia, had a direct role, had a hand in this decision to fire the fbi director. the director who is responsible for oversight of the agency that we recently learned is conducting an ongoing investigation into that exact matter. it's striking. i think this deserves unique focus and attention in a bipartisan way in congress in the coming days. >> the white house's rational is saying that he lost the confidence of the president and the reason that they are citing in this letter from the deputy attorney general largely is how he handled the clinton e-mail investigation. does that -- that's the argument that kellyanne conway was on trying to push. does that make sense to you considering the fact that as a candidate, donald trump was praising repeatedly comey's handling of it during the campaign? >> anderson, tha

there were other presidential candidates running at the time before election day. she's in cahoots with the peace prize committee. they were convicted of war crimes. they woke up that morning and is that even possible come it was completely basically over at that point. >> what was liberia before a. the tension that led to the civil war was still there and she's done a good job of keeping that as they bringing people into the government by trying to reach out to the opposition so that you don't have people that feel that they are so completely left out of process because you have to remember there were a lot of supporters. the crimes were exposed to the world and the other side did worse. it wasn't comparing it to her. i would think out of everybody that you just mentioned and how long was the term, 12 years of somebody that is the opposite and a force to be contended wi with. he was not one of the participants to one of the things he brings to the table is that the time most were looking like crazy people all over the world tha but there was this ono was bringing h

i reserve the balance of my time. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlewoman reserves the balance of her time. the gentlewoman from california is recognized. ms. speier: mr. speaker, i yield myself such time as i may consume. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlelady is recognized for such time. ms. speier: four years ago, i stood on the house floor and condemned the online bullying of u.s. marine corps service women on facebook. these webpages contained obscene and abusive pictures and implied that women only advance professionally by performing sexual favors. i sent a letter to the secretary of defense and the commandant of the marine corps asking them to take action. i got a letter back from the commandant which said, i share your indignation. i didn't want him to share my indignation. i wanted him to do something about it. neither he nor the department of defense inspector general did anything. lack of consequences caused this cultural rot to spread further. the marines united page, through which hundreds of active dut

the dashboard either. but people are taking longer and longer times on their leases. is it a bad idea to take a longer lease? >> one thing i want consumers to pay attention to when they go into the show room is what they're paying for the overall cost of the vehicle, not just the monthly payment. >> and that's gone up and up as they put more of these things into the cars. >> i would never recommend going more than 60 months. >> no more than five years. >> because what you're going to find is that you're going to owe more on that vehicle than it's worth for years to come. >> and probably every year the valuation drops. >> the valuation is dropping down and so i just would caution consumers to make sure that you're looking and you're trying to get a payment that's closer to the 60 month rather than 72 or 84. >> what should we be doing in terms of buying or leasing? it's the constant age old discussion. what's the better deal sm. >> the interest thing about leasing is that the people that probably should lease tend not to. so if you don't drive a lot you actually could ju
