but that will have to change, and that will change immediately.y's harbouring of militants and terrorists whose target us service members and officials. —— who target. it is time for pakistan to demonstrate its commitment to civilisation, order, and to peace. i want to bring in my colleague now. he was the bbc‘s correspondent in afghanistan and the region during the search, the obama surge, when an extra 100,000 troops were deployed to afghanistan —— during the surge. did you detect any major changes of policy that will make a difference? it was interesting in that clip, a stark warning to pakistani, where he said that we are giving money to a country that harbours those terrorists, and that is going to change. i would terrorists, and that is going to change. iwould be terrorists, and that is going to change. i would be interested to see how that will change. the pakistani military will balk at something like that. there was talk about the sacrifices that have been made by their own military in fighting insurgency, but there is to give evidence to

your brain would then change, it would learn the error and change its representation of the apple. so you would see the apple differently. we have a very fancy name for this in the science of psychology and neuroscience, we call it learning. this is what you do when you learn. your breathtaking information that does not have the force of a can use it to better in the future. your brain can also be an unscrupulous scientist and ignore the dater altogether maintaining its predictions are reality like we saw with the square. or, like the quintessential scientist, your brain can run armchair experiments to imagine a world, pure simulation without any sensory input or any prediction error at all just as he did as he imagined everyone or hearing the sound of your song that you cannot get out of your head. and how emotions are made, explain more about how simulations give meaning to sensations that allow you to experience the world and act in the world. the examples that i have used here so far about objects and events in the outside world apples and squares. but the really important and

let's start with the change in language around climate change. calling at extreme weather patterns, now. but the other line, reducing greenhouse gases, they are being told to call it build soil organic matter. it does not seem to have the same urgency. i would agree with that. it sounds like a temporary thing, too. as you said, our resilience to weather extremes, instead of climate change adoption, that is giving the impression that this is a minute will go away. that is contradicted by research and scientists saying in the end is a fundamental process changing the and our world. this is in line with other things we have seen from government departments in the us is the arrival of the trump administration. the environmental protection agency deleted parts of the existing body of websites that was there from the 0bama administration, that was pointing out the changes in terms of climate change. so i guess this is another sign that in the end the trump administration wants to put its mark on this and say, climate change is not really exist. some mi

you might be only take a feeling of distress and change it from sadness to anger by changing the simulation that your brain does. turning down brain allows you to broaden the horizon of control for your emotion. so if your brain is using your past experience to predict and construct which are about to feel in the immediate future it means if you invest effort to cultivate new experiences in the presence, that feed your brain to make different emotions in the future. that's one way, learning new words and concepts from other cultures can broaden the vocabulary of emotions your brain is to make. you can make those with very little effort with practice. for school-age children when you teach them to broaden their motion vocabulary, 20 or 30 minutes a week it doesn't just improve their social functioning it improves their test scores and changes the emotional climate of the classroom. because the kids have more control over their experience and behavior. >> i've had this realization that like a lot of the time we think of emotions as sort of these innate and uncontrollable actions that happen.

, changing rapidly, and changing primarily because of human activitieies. the e science tells us that. extreme events are one of thee most important parts of our changing climate and having very serio r ramifatioionsn ourr ciety. particular, we're seeing more large heat eventsts, less cold events, and a significant increase in precipitation happening as lalarger events. one of thththingse' seeinin isisthat the wet areetting wteter d the e y are gegeing ddri. >> u know wt? i w--i was born re in lainview, was raid d in pinviviewi' always be i in plnvieiew,nd it t st-- it seems like iisis doi nothinbubut geing hohoer and dri and less rain yearly. >> 's ben n a tgh d droht. 2010, h had le 2929 ihes of rain, ani i did't ink the'd ev be another po day. . 2011, whahad 5 cheses of rai w worstrought 'd ev seen. and 2011asas theirstst te we' everad to o andon our crop. d d we h to pipi and choe e whiccropop wwere g gna save, whh h crope wewereonna abandonanand, m, ththatas-- tht t was ke c choing which chd d we we gonnlose, or leavbehind, and we nerer had to do at be

one of those is climate change.he presence of this highly unregulated, toxic industry that is so unevenly distributed with communities of color bearing the greatest risk. another extremity is poverty. if you cannot organize your own evacuation because you do not have a car, you are stuck. another is racism. if you want to get to dry land but you are hearing the border checkpoints are staying open everywhere where the highway is not flooded, then you are not -- you are less likely to seek safety. these are accelerant's to a disaster that would have happened anyway, and it is ththe job of journalism t to provide y facts anand context for people o understand our world. , withouttese contexts an open didiscussion of climatae change, without heariring from people like jajames hansen thate are about to h hear from here, t seems like an act of god, like it came from nowhere. if that is the case then we are going to employ the discussion, what could have been done to prevent it, which is a very important discussion to have.

w about climateha change? i find it remarkable.on and say, do you have an opinion about whether or not yos should have children respective to climate change, and almost everyone of them said, yes, i worry about this enormously. i worry about the future that my children will have. >> tucker: one second, you're not winning me over. just hold on.ç >> people care about the future of their children. they really do, tucker. >> tucker: everybody cares about the future for their children.ker: >> would you deny that our society is medicine is based on science. based on science? media is based on science. all of the things that we have to see about what science is telling us is that climates change is going to create a situation which is very, veryret dangerous and difficult for civilizations to endure. climate change will raise sea levels to the point to which it is swamped. >> tucker: can i ask you a question, or are you going to continue with this stuff? let me ask you a simple>> question. >> you still haven't answered my question.e do y

our international commitment to climate change isn't just climate change. there's so many of the things we do with the other countries that within sacrifice. you don't just have to read the presidents transcripts of his conversations with the president of mexico or some primers of australia the other day. but china, india, the european union, russia, iran, pope francis, everybody was part of paris. the only two countries that joined us in rejecting it, syria and nicaragua. i'm not quite sure that's the company that we want to be proud of keeping. and the paris agreement is probably the prime example of seeing how the sustainable development goals one to 17 are coming alive in public policy. sdg 13 what you know that all about climate change, but also sustainable development goal 17 which is committing to partnership in cooperation with the global community in order to solve world problems. so 13 and 17. in some ways abandoning 17 is maybe as important or more important than 13. all the other things will not be able to lead with. david victor, professor univ

this thing with the climate change really amazes me. i remember when aerosol sprays came out i think in the mid or late 50's and already they were concerned about the ozone layer so there's absolutely no excuse and fast moving forward today, with this gentlemen talking about the report from scientists, i'd like to point out that none of the politicians and especially mr. trump do not have a ph.d. in anything especially science and the thing, the other thing that nobody seems to mention is the emissions from all the bombs and war machines that we're dropping. it's not just automobiles. it's absolutely disgusting that we're political footballs and nothing but a commodity and that doesn't mean just us here in america but the global community and civilian population. we're at the mercy of people who want accolades to our self-serving and money, money, money and i would like to say one, make one comment from your previous guests as far as north korea goes. number one, kim jung ung un is not stupid. i think it's an ego thing and i'm very upse

at our climate change. two or three weeks ago we had with generals and investors, professors, and a admiral who ran the norfolk naval this, he told us that this routine now in virginia beach to -- norfolk virginia beach that when you leave work in the morning you can check the newspaper and radio to see which roads are open and have not and flooded because of climate change and the seed surge and all of that. the city itself -- 14 and sea level rise in the last 20 years. the 20 years might be 25 but it's an awful lot, among the worst here. so obviously it knows no borders. the ideas that we have to somehow come together -- my wife and i went -- to denmark in december of 2009. we were over in switzerland anyway, thought it was really important. frightening because you had all these countries ready to act on climate change. in the big four companies -- india and china. were saying consistently day after day -- saying they after day, you got rich by burning , distributing greenhouse gases, now you want to cut

they change the army. that's what we are for, to drive change. as we went back into iraq in 2003, i was a brigade commander at the time. i tend to reserve criticism for myself and/or the organization unassociated with. i was an armored brigade commander at that time, with elite force that invaded. i would tell you probably one of the problems we had as a look back on it now is we thought we knew what we were dealing with. i was pretty sure i had good intelligence. i had satellite photographs. i it varies things like that. i had a false sense of understanding of what it was, and i will leave it at that level where i was as a colonel. what that does is, if you start developing a battle plan based on your sort of false understanding and your sort of level of assurance, one of the reasons you get to that is you take previous experience and you artificially set it on top of your current experience. that's a common problem. you should look back in history, not be captive to a i would say that my level at least i believe at that level we were probably c

however, things have changed. since president trump decided to withdraw from the paris climate agreement on june 1st, it is imperative for leaders such as congressman don beyer to reaffirm the leadership role that the united states has to play, the united states must play on the international stage and especially on issues such as climate change. congressman beyer isn't only my role model, he's america's strongest member of congress fighting against global climate change. i first met congressman beyer as a volunteer for his campaign three years ago when he encouraged me to stay involved in not only policy, but politics. and i went on to serve as an intern. before being elected to virginia's 8th congressional district in 2014, congressman beyer servedded as two-term incumbent lieutenant governor and most importantly, ambassador to switzerland under president obama. before inviting congressman beyer up to deliver the speech, after speech we'll be followed by a conversation between congressman beyer and mr. george in

a things have changed. president trump decided to a star from the paris climate agreement on june 1. it is imperative for leaders such as congressman buyer to reaffirm the leadership role that the united states has to play. the united states must play, on an international stage. especially on climate change. congress buyer is not only mike romano, he is america's strongest member of congress fighting against global climate change. i first met congressman byer when i was a volunteer for his campaign when he encouraged me to stay involved in not only policy but also politics and then i went on to serve as campaign in turn are his reelection campaign. before being elected to congressionalhth district, congressman byer served as the governor of the commonwealth of virginia, the president of the senate and the ambassador to switzerland and lichen seen under resident obama. let me briefly say this speech will be followed by a conversation between car was meant by her and george ingram. george ingram serves as the

[applause] >> please fold up your chairs. [inaudible conversations] >> booktv visited capitol hill to ask members of congress are they reading this summer >> let me back in the question and say i highly encourage people to read. whether they are young or old. it expands your horizon. you learn, gain knowledge and it inspires you in lots of ways. you don't have to go on a long trip to feel like you have been there if you look at the place in a book and look at the photographs. these are autographs i have collected. you have winston churchill and it happens the first autobiography i ever read was a book called "my early life" and that got me into autobiographies and i love churchill's way of writing. i try to immolate him without much great success. you have lincoln's autograph here. this is a copy of a photo that is the only copy of lincoln in congress in a photograph. he is one of my favorite president

, the current administration's is not climate change. down on the fact that he is a sceptic when it comes to climate change, which is very worrying for the planet. yes, but we do not know that this has come from the white house, do they? i am sure that it has. staff at the natural resources conservation centre and the department of agriculture. he has pulled out of the climate change agreement and has been quite bullish about the fact that he does not have the same thinking on climate change that other world leaders have, so i think he is very much a sceptic when it comes to this. ok, all right. beulah story we will look at is the cricket. we love our cricket, don't we? we do. i once tried to talk about cricket to michael parkinson and he said what the hell do you know about cricket? however, i am familiar with moeen ali. i have two older brothers and the cricket mad husband, so there is no escape! this is talking about moeen ali being put ona par is talking about moeen ali being put on a par with ian botham because she is such a good al

guest: of change? a 21st-century racial justice organization that works to change the policies and practices that hold lack people back and champions solutions that move all of us forward. we use the internet and technology to mobilize our 1.2 million members, their friends thefamily, to translate presence that black people have in the world on a wide range of issues to make change. ,hether it is in silicon valley hollywood, wall street, and washington. host: how long has the group been around and how did it get started? guest: it started 12 years ago in the aftermath of hurricane was caused by bad decision makers and turned into a life altering disaster by those same decision-makers. those images that are still seared in my mind, and probably ofso many of your viewers, black people on their roof thanking the government to do something and being left to die. while those issues of geographic segregation, generational poverty, the impact of climate change, criminal justice, was all part of what was going

is this a change in science? i do not think we have seen major breakthroughs like this led this way. or was this just a coincidence? an interesting, serendipitous event. i think more women are starting to make headway in science. none of us played it this way, but it just so happened that all of us were running research laboratories doing highly, metairie types of work which made it easy for us to work together. >> why is it still harder for women in some ways? >> i think it is still some bias in this. there are some unintended -- i think it is still some biasness. some unintended bias in the field. women may feel more reluctant to step forward and volunteer for things, and so they get volunteered for things which takes them away from leadership roles. so, i think it is a lot of subtle things. >> when you got to the notion of editing genetic sequence, what is it you are editing exactly? i noticed a strand of dna, but what would you call that strand length that you edit? >> i would call it a length of strand, i gu

they don't want to change that.eople see thee, business community through the eyes of large companies and they feel why do these people need a change when they are 200,000, 300,000 people, they have lawyers. changen't need any because they are destroying more jobs than they are creating. most of our companies are small and medium companies. people don't understand that. there has been this idea in france that you don't perform the labor law. so it is going from one government to the other. macron is saying yes we can. it is a first small step, but it is very important. olivia: france famous for its workers rights when it comes to employment. how do you think this will react internationally? of the first steps of the president were welcome everywhere. the general feeling about the french is very good since he came into power. young, the feeling he will reform the country and will have the power to do so. i think this first step is very important because so many people will say there is something happening in france.

there are two problems of climate change.destroy civilization and, two, nobody listens and nobody cares. all right? because they still think it won't affect them. well, for better or worse, the plan is starting to hit us in ways everyone can relate to. >> a new study says climate change could keep you from getting your morning cup of joe. ethiopia is the fifth largest coffee producer and they could lutes 60% of their farming land due the climate change by the end of the century. >> the latest estimates warn climate change may mean as much as half the land now used for coffee production around the world may no longer be suitable for it by the middle of this century. >> no coffee? how am i supposed to drink my whiskey in the morning? plain like some kind of alcohol income ( laughter ) also, you should be extra concerned about this, trevor. how am i supposed to help kids in africa if i don't even have the one cup of coffee a day to give up? come on, ethiopia, help me help you, all right?

climate change white house reviewing new report that finds strong link between climate change and human activity a climate report based on work conducted by scientists thirty federal agencies its conclusions about the far reaching damage already occurring already occurring already are covering from global warming government report finds drastic impact of climate change on us extreme weather could kill all hundred and fifty thousand people each year in europe by the end of the century say scientists hundreds of millions of people will be exposed to deadly weather those are a few of the headlines from their food. this week that was this week fox news. and then we have c.n.n. where we know all of this is going on both mention it for about three seconds every two years where you will will will slip it in there i don't remember the exact numbers but it is like a year ago they counted the number of times climate change was talked about on c.n.n. n.b.c. c.b.s. all of them it was like ten it was like a hand fall about as much as they talked about. like. shirt collar for that week so how do they

must we change? do we really have to change? can we change? and then will we change?e first one, mother nature has joined the debate. turns out she's way more persuasive than any of us climate activists. there are a lot of groups out there been doing great work at the grassroots level, but these climate-related extreme weather events are really getting the attention of people, even folks who don't want to use phrases like "global warming," but they're seeing the changes. now, the second question is really important. can we change? because you're right, if we decide we have to change, but we don't have the ability to, then, you know, i don't want to hear about it anymore. it's just a formula for depression and anxiety. but luckily, we now have the solutions. people s wt happened with the cost reductions with computer chips and cell phones and flat screen tvs. the great news is that same pattern is happening with solar panels and windmills and now batteries and electric cars and l.e.d.s and all kinds of efficiency improvements. so we really do have the ability to change

alongside that, the grading has changed. the big change is at the top ten.re important and we should be teaching them maths and english all the way through to 18, it's just what maths and english and how that is assessed, whether it's functional skills, which needs properfunding as well, all with the sissies. we're saying it should be a combination of both, depending on what the student is doing in their college or independent training provider. good to hear your point of view, thank you very much. and at 2.30 we'll be putting your questions tojulie swan from the exam regulator quual. we'll have all the information about how the new gcses work but do send us in your questions. you can text us on 61124 or tweet using the hashtag #bbcaskthis. that's at 2.30pm here on bbc news. a hospital in portsmouth has been given a formal warning notice by the health watchdog for putting vulnerable patients at risk of very poor care. inspectors said that hospital staff at the queen alexandra hospital fed medication to patients by hiding them in their meals. inspectors also

and you really just can't change the man by changing staff.just is not going to work with donald trump. he doesn't want to be managed. he wants to be his own chief of staff, his own communications director, and his own chief counsel. >> woodruff: what do you see, barry bennett? >> well, i think that if his mission were to change donald trump that would probably be a failure in the end. i think his mission, though, is to make trump better. every player needs a coach. this white house team has needed a coach for six months, frankly. and i hope that he is that good coach that they need-- an enforcer, systems, rules, processes all matter. and he seems-- the first three days-- i know it's a short time to judge him, but i'm pretty excited about those three days. >> woodruff: well, ther there aa few reports coming out, apparently the door to the oval office open to everybody, or many, is now closed. there's some discipline there. and we're also noticing the president isn't tweeting as mup. now it's only three days. >> three days. >> woodruff: but may

but yes, you can make changes that are very precise, imagine, imagine being able to make a single change to a single letter in the 3 billion base pairs of dna in a human cell. that is the kind of accuracy that we have with this technology. walter: explain to me the scientific and maybe we'll get to the moral difference, of doing that, in a human being or in a cell, or animals which is perhaps easier and doing it in the germ line. what does it mean to do it in the germ line. >> when we talk about doing it in an adult person, or anything or plant or animal, we're talking about making changes to the cell and ways that the dna changes are not heritable by future generations. in the germ line, that is not changed. those changes become part of the entire organism, and the cells are allowed to develop into an embryo. and those changes can be passed on to future generations. becomes a permanent alteration. it is sort of changing the evolution of the species at that point. walter: but our evolution is always change, right, so what is the difference here? here, we are doing a targeted fashion, mak

they changed. most of all, brains change. circuits form. neurons wor weekend, patterns grow and brains expand and as a result, people change and they can change extraordinarily. some examples of it, change in people that can occur over the course of decades. a man who moves me enormously, a man by the name of john newton was a british theologian, he was a leading abolitionist and played a central role in the banning of slavery at the beginning of the 1800s in england. john newton spent the early decades of his adult life as the captain of the slave ship, and after he retired from that, he spent decades as a local person investing in the slave trade and growing rich from it until one day something changed in him. something changed, something changed and he celebrated it to the thing he is most known for historically in a hymn that he wrote, amazing grace. another example, a man, who on the morning of december 6, 1941 was the lead pilot and one of the squadrons that took off from an air force base in japan and attacked pearl harbor. he was on

promise to me that he will change his policy he will change his internal and international policy that he will respect democratic values much more has them here because he was just relating to the verdict seriously in the country the promise to me is that he will change his position the ways of russia and the ways that conflict regions and he will begin the negotiation process but i remember quite well be able to solves. and eight when we were very near to as they were in applies the. country doing to people around here. just were doing and. idolizes they were giving to. these i saw that unfortunately i will have no any kind of mechanisms to every very serious problems for the country in the future and of course i said. either you are destined to doing what you promised or i will leave because i don't want to be a part of the process process which is reading my country in absolutely wrong direction and. very serious problems because of why i decided to leave will eventually do came back when you founded the democratic movement united georgia. what move the to do to come back only war o

we are in the middle of a climate change and climate of technology and change and globalization. we are going through three climate changes at once. you want brazilians -- you want to resell against. i thought how do we win the climate changes and then i realized there was a woman of 3.8 billion-years-old, she was mother nature and she has been through more then anybody so i interviewed her and said how do you produce this when the climate changes and she said first of all, i do this unconsciously but i am incredibly adaptive. only the adaptive survive. in the portal ecosystem is the most resilient ecosystem. then she said i do believe in the state of the body and a circular. i'm very sustainable. then she said i'm incredibly entrepreneurial. she said you can't build anything resilient without time and to speed up the growth of a tree or gestation and all of. and the ecosystem is in balance it is highly resilient to the invasive species. the party lost ownership of the system and donald trump was an invasive species. that is exactly what happened by the way. last, she said i beli

do you understand the science of climate change?verything we do in our society paid science means that climate change is real. that fracking pollutes groundwater. that this television works, that car's work. it presumably says that underneath your hair there is a brain behind those eyes. of course, i haven't seen it. science wouldn't tell us there is a bunch of hamsters up there. what i am saying to you, tucker, to make this argument about what the scientists are doing -- >> tucker: -- >> tucker: hilarious. we'll get back to that in one second. >> asked your question and you haven't answered it. >> tucker: do i understand science? >> to understand what the science is telling us? i find it remarkable. i talked to malign the most about this question and say, do you have an opinion about whether or not you should have children respect of change, and almost everyone of them said, yes, i worry about this enormously. i worry about the future that my children will have. >> tucker: one second, you're not winning me over. just hold on. >> i

employable we have got to change that. as business guys, you and i understand we need a new approach. we need to fix this immigration system. we took a look at best practices, countries like canada, australia and others. what we are introducing is modeled on the current canadian and australian system. it is pro-worker, pro-growth, and has been proven to work. both are extreme the successful in attracting highly skilled workers to those countries. the goals of our nation's's immigration system should protect the interest of working americans, including immigrants and talented individuals who come here legally and want to work and make a better life for themselves. the current system makes it virtually impossible for them to do that. if we are going to be an innovator and leader economically, it inherited our immigration system focuses on highly skilled, permanent workers who can add value to our economy and ultimately achieve their own version of the american dream. we are talking about measured, rational approach to immigr

interest rate changes. once it will be long-term interest rates, it will be hard to project area change in demographics, that has not been terribly significant. we reject the larger deficits and social security finances and will do the trustees. they see the 75 year balance should be negative 1% of gdp. that is have a percentage points more than ours. a lot of that is gdp growth. a projected shortfall between income and cost. that is a little bit different. it is about 1.5%. it is about four percentage point smaller. different projections of factors that influence things, taxable earnings. see lower interest rates. we have slower economic growth. we see potential economic growth settling in at about 1.8 or 1.9% of gdp. from if you want to see a simple recipe, look at productivity, labor force growth. we just adjusted our forecast on immigration. we'll see immigration thank you very much. then we see the productivity returning to a somewhat normal level. not at the very high level that existed at one point.

change is always different, and if you have been changing for a number of years, change can be difficultl to the changes. there has been perhaps less variation in results as some might have affected, so it might have been uncomfortable and difficult at times, but it seems most of us have risen well to the challenge. what is planned for a—levels? risen well to the challenge. what is planned for a-levels? the first of the league formed a—levels were awarded last week, with less radical change. —— first of the re—formed. we will see the a—levels come through the system... if you were grading yourself on the performance today, what would you give yourself? at the moment i think we are pleased with the way in which the results have panned out today. more than a five? i would not wish to be boastful. we can only use our best endeavours to anticipate what the results look like, but we were not too far off. you are looking relieved, i have to say! not as relieved, i have to say! not as relieved as many students today. thank you very much for coming in. there's been a sharp fall in the number of

but i don't see what the change is.ther than what courtney said, he deliberately gave mattis, nicholson and the other generals the ability to decide on future deployments. mattis smartly did not accept it by delaying this until there was a review. i think the biggest change may be they have persuaded to get the president to go against his own grain and against his instincts and against steve bannon, if you will and make a decision that is more in line with what his generals believe necessary which is not a complete withdrawal and certainly not hiring eric prince for $10 billion a year for bring his mercenaries in and turned over to the private sector. that is where his head was and his heart and they have reamed -- reeled him in and he has publicly criticized the chairman of the joint chiefs and h.r. mcmaster and general john kelly for whom afghanistan is such an emotional challenge given the fact he lost his son after the obama increase to 30,000 troops and he has another marine son either deploying or about to be depl

a hint at what that change would look like? torge: radical change politics and economics.hange that depends on perpetual growth on a finite planet is destined to deliver disaster. we need community ownership of local resources. which are not expected to deliver more and more money, but continuedo deliver and steady prosperity to the people of those communities and the people of this planet. the system we have at the moment about accumulation, the in anuation of growth planet that does not grow, that system is destined to push us over the cliliff. amy: thank you for being with us. george monbiot is a british journalist and author. he's a columnist with the guardian. his book "out of the wreckage: a new politics for an age of crisis" will be out this week. his latest piece for the guardian is called, "why are the crucial questions about hurricane harvey not being asked?" we will have you back on to talk about your ideas and your latest book, george. thank you for joining us. coming up, another suspect in the brutal beating of deandre harris during the white supremacist rally

a variety of changes. something has to be done about that at some point and there are a variety of things that could be done revenue increases in the combinations of those things. the chief actuary at raleigh was a wide variety of changes associated with program and their impact on our program. it's also useful in what this paper does is analyze the individual behavioral effects of any change in their effects on welfare in the state through the household consumption through this project uses the structural model and i will explain what it isn't the next few slides to evaluate this impacts of changes associated with social security for the program that has similar effects on the program's bottom line. so economic models present a way to analyze these effects if you think about what are reduced for model does it's a linear regression model. what a structural model does is a little bit different that it starts with assumptions on workers utility function how they feel towards different things and in this mode

and climate change. i feel very, very connected first to the u.n., family history, my grandmother clara who was my role model until you died at 98 and have was in geneva in 1945 is part of the the american delegation to organize the u.n. she served as our u.s. representative to the ilo from 45-57 when they involuntarily kicked her out of the department of labor. she did work for usaid for the next 15 years until they kicked her out at age 82. for the women in the room, in 1972 just before they kicked her out she authored something called the percy an amendment to the u.s. foreign relations act which as went around the world visiting one of 50 countries she noticed usaid money was for training and education was unequally spent almost completely on the men and the boys. the first amendment says it has to be spent equally on men and women. it still part of the law and is probably one of the great pieces of our pride. i was born in the free territory of trieste which is united nations protectorate from 1945-

to healthcare to climate change. that this idea of discipline and an issue at a time if you're really going to get something accomplished actually does matter. he appears to like to be scattershot and he comes and goes and eat any tweets and. if you're going to have a message it needs to be reinforced at many levels it's the president it's the press secretary it's the secretary of state the secretary of defense. it's your people up on the hill all saying and pushing for in trying to achieve the same thing. when you tweet and you blow all that up. you blow it up. let's talk about the right of white house communications director is we know that currently isn't one after a much publicized departure about how crucial. is that role in a normally functioning white house it and how important could be in this one. from the white house is i have covered and and studied closely and the white house is that i've looked at. since. the role. the two roles that are. critical to success. chief of staff role in the communications dir

it's not going to change. it's a situation that in some respects resembles the challenge we faced in the cold war, albeit on a much smaller and ultimately less scary scale. in a sense that it's a problem that we have to manage through the combination of diplomacy, deterrence and pressure through sanctions. but as important as all of those elements of our strategy are to preventing this thing from getting out of hand and protecting ourselves and our allies, it's not how we're going to solve this in the long-term. the solution will come at a point that we cannot predict right now. but when there is some sort of change in north korea. and i think we do need to get used to thinking about this country in a way that we haven't in the past. it's not just a state. it's a country with people. a country where increasingly politics is going to come into play. the only way this regime has managed to sustain itself over a period of decades is by creating a total information blockade, denying its people knowledge of the out
