look at the statistics on criminal sentencing. in few places can you see more clearly the collapse of the liberal stranglehold on our courts. the most recent statistics show federal judges imposed prison sentences and average 32% longer than those handed down during 1979. robbery sentences were 10% longer, drug offenses 38% longer, and weapons offenses 41% longer. the great legal debates of the past two decades over criminal justice have at their root have been debates over a strict versus expensive discussion of the constitution. the constitution as intended by the framers is itself tough on crime and protective of the victims of crime. for so long, the liberal message to our national culture was tune in, turn off and let it all hang out. now they see conservatives taking the lead as our nation says no to drugs and yes to family and absolutely to schools that teach basic skills, basic values and basic discipline. it is no wonder that our nation admires a man who lives in teaching values in education and talks turkey to students a

>> i looked at the statistic. statistics. i have opinions on mr. comey. i think rod rosenstein had it right, 20 did was a firing offense. when he offered his opinion on the evidence on july 5, 2016. something that is not allowed, and is a firing offense when he offered his opinion on hillary clinton's email practices. when he sent a letter on october 11th, violating over 50 years of justice department's policies, defying the deputy attorney general, he did it anyway because he -- james comey gets to decide what is right and what is wrong. that narcissistic attitude is what caused rod rosenstein to write a memo. this is the appointed deputy attorney general by donald trump. he was exactly right. even in rep -- retrospect, james comey would not tell mr. rosenstein he had any regrets. that is what a narcissist does. he defines what is right. his book has the words, higher loyalty. has higher loyalty is not to the law, to the policies, or to the rules. he gets to violate them. he gets to define what that loyalty is. the cost hillary clinton statistically, i p

the statistics came from bloomberg anti-gun group. but the statistic is bogus. the washington post calls the number, flat-out wrong. there were anything like accidental firearms discharges in school parking lots. late at night while no students were present and no one was injured. second lie, the shooter, nikolaus cruz, was member every white nationalist group in florida and participate in paramilitary drills. this was based on some racist comment looking for attention here but the media ran with it without fact checking. police say there is no connection with the shooter in this white nationalist group. line number three, how many times have you heard the, these types of mass shootings only happen in america, outline? let's look at statistics. the debts from mass shootings were over 15 people are killed are higher in europe, africa, india and pakistan. line number four. the shooting is the presidents fault. here is jimmy kimmel. >> he still not done anything about, nothing, you have literally done nothing! you like to say this is a mental health issue. but what

lies, dammed lies and statistics. i am not even going to try to find the truth.ters are saying it is rubbish, there is conspiracy in the treasury and fake figures, the remainers are saying the parts that of the uk that will be hit the hardest are the ones that wanted to leave. it serves you right, evil racist, and all of it. the truth probably lies somewhere in between. the economic analysis that they are coming up with is that we have it now and we can do something to change it. if we know and believe that the north—east may be the ha rd est that the north—east may be the hardest hit, we can do something about it. i havejust hardest hit, we can do something about it. i have just come hardest hit, we can do something about it. i havejust come back hardest hit, we can do something about it. i have just come back from india, singapore and hong kong, looking at investment into the uk, and those other regions that we are focusing on, because we already know that those are the areas of the uk that those are the areas of the uk that will be hardest hit in economic term

, they have anything with statistics, they have a point, don't they?atistics, not if you are honest but you make choices about the data you put into your numbercrunching computers, you decide what particular facet of the human condition to profile, it is all subjective. then you challenge me and observers get to hear the various sides and see who has the most persuasive case. the fa ct has the most persuasive case. the fact that science has progressed shows that, despite human disagreement and the fact that we are blinded by our buyer says, over the long run, with free speech, open debate, the ability to challenge people and the onus to provide data to support your ideas, over the longer run, we can approach and understanding of truth. no question that everybody would agree that the data on global hunger and poverty suggests that most people in the world, in that material sense, things are better at today for most people but, if you take the most advanced society, the us, your radio progress and runs into real trouble because the generations the middle

so this is just of course statistics so lifestyle changes are really worth. doing sports and exercise this is what we tell always in this show get out and do some exercise but why sports helpful watch this. guy likes to keep fit he does cardio and strength training for three decades he did no sport at all but for the past three years he's exercise regularly and feels not only better but also younger. i'm told most physiological age has been reduced by several years or even a decade so i can't sit in the mirror as you did but i can definitely feel it was fun see there lots of sister. is a nurse that they hand over medical school and took part in the study there. the researchers wanted to know how the body responds when people who have been sedentary for years become more active. sixty seven volunteers were asked to exercise for half an hour a day for six months. to. do moderate insurance training without overdoing it it has numerous anti-aging effect. on we've seen a reversal i mean aging is blood vessels and muscle function. overall but bodily functions and p

all of that gets rolled up into this statistical analysis. i guess my question would be, what percent of the cases that we see and some of the statistics i have looked at, maybe 10% of the cases, warrant further investigation. 90% thrown out of the 10% that are there. roughly 30% of those end up being substantiated. those are rough figures. there seems to be some consistency there. we are still talking small percentages. even among that portion, not all of those are for the big headline cases that we see. a lot of them -- >> i will try to give that answer for you. we have -- >> there were some things. it's like a soldier buffing the something,tever, they would never have anything to enter a file. there were never be any offense. that can apply to general officers. and demands expects this other senior leaders, and in the corporate world, this would not be anything to translate. that's part of the statistical problem. >> we have had things from officer evaluation evaluation -- reports. technically, he was substantiated. process. through a way

rpi is no longer regarded as an official government statistics, cbi is the statistic thatis statisticsat is more commonly recognised as the correct interpretation of inflation. and also the mps are very concerned by the fact that not only are they using rpi, they add 3% at so are they using rpi, they add 3% at so many students are paying as much as 6.1% on their student loans, they are also paying those lows of whilst they are still a university before they are still a university before they have even started earning any money. —— paying those loans. record numbers of disadvantage 18—year—olds are going to university and graduates do not pay anything back until they are earning at least £21,000. there's politics behind all of this because student rates are very important. absolutely, as we saw the general election last year, labour did very well among younger people partly that was, many suspect, down to the fact that their ma nifesto suspect, down to the fact that their manifesto committed to abolishing tuition fees and reintroducing, it feels like agent history, media links grants, m

of paper with a statistic somehow analyses the problem?ement, i put it to the noble baroness, if you have a free—trade agreement you have access to the market. he and all the other peers will continue their work on the eu withdrawal bill next monday. the government has promised a new immigration system. this is the procedure eu citizens would use to apply for the new settled status, which will grant those who've spent five years in the uk equal rights on health care, education, benefits and pensions. the immigration minister said a new, digital system was being designed from scratch, and it should go live from this autumn. we are currently designing and testing and working with groups to make sure that the system is simple and straightforward as possible. i think that is critically important. must be something that needs to be done on bone or a tablet, ——a phone or a tablet, it has to be something that people find user—friendly and easy to use. what we know of digital systems is that you have to design them in a straightforward and intuiti

dhs doesn't keep statistics as to the numbers. it's not either a for maltin the sense of aliens being always or almost always paroled but between those two extremes i don't think we have reliable statistical evidence. >> i thought we had some. from what i understand, in 2012, ice has granted parole to 80% of arriving aliens. in 2015 the number dropped to 47%, and it may be lower now. so my question is, it's obviously the executive alone making this determination. what other area of law have we permitted a government agent, on his or her own, without a neutral party, looking at that decision to detain someone indefinitely? >> well, first of all, i would not accept the premise this was indefinite detention. it is true there is no outer limit in terms of a number of days but it is detention specifically pending a determination of eligibility for asylum. >> that assumes that determination is going to be done in some expeditious way. we know as a matter of fact, that these determinations can sometimes take years. >> they can sometimes

a good old statistic. what's happened is that the office for national statistics asked people to estimate how many calories they were eating over a certain number of days. many estimated they were eating 2000, in fact there were eating 2000, in fact there were eating well over 3000. —— men estimated they were eating 2000. basically the story is that men are kidding themselves. you kid yourselves. men are worse than women on this. we kid ourselves we are eating far less than actually are. you have a sugar tax coming in, long—awaited, in april. which the government estimates will get the treasury 520 million which will then be invested in primary schools and sport. that has been trialled for a longtime, it's been off and on. add to see if that changes behaviour. it's on in ireland, ireland has introduced one. mexico has a sugar tax, it has seen sales of soft drinks full. the scottish government has the same kind of thing, talking about forcing restaurants and clubs to control their portion size. smaller port

those are the latest statistics.ents don't know whether their kids are going to be better standards of living than they did. do you think that is part of the anxiety, i don't know, the depression that people feel these days? >> i do. the para ddox about the united states is that the majority of americans say they're happy, but we're not as happy as we should be given how wealthy we are. many western countries and british commonwealth countries are happier than the united states. >> why? >> no one knows for sure. i think you may have identified one reason. another hypothesis is that americans feel insecure because of our patchy social safety net. one layoff and we could lose good health insurance or be destitute. that's less likely to happen in other western democracies. that sense of existential security might make everyone a bit happier. also whereas most countries have gotten happier over time, the united states has stagnated for about 70 years, the level of happiness has been about the same even as the country's g

bbc.co.uk/sport. statistics. head to bbc sport online. bbc. co. uk/sport. that statistics.t was hugh ferris. the accrington striker billy mckee says he has one of the bestjobs in the world but in a remarkably candid interview with the bbc he has revealed how he struggled with suicidal thoughts and how he continues to balance life as a professional sportsman while suffering from severe anxiety and depression. i was on the bed rocking, literally wanting to kill myself. why would someone with the bestjob in the world want to kill themselves? depression is a serious thing and i think people really do struggle. i ama think people really do struggle. i am a bit bipolar as well and it all linked together. it is a new one for me. i am learning about it and hopefully i will learn more about my new ta blets hopefully i will learn more about my new tablets have been good. they have levelled me out and i think they take the edge off everything. fingers crossed, they keep working. if it wasn't for my wife and kid i probably wouldn't be here. a lot of people have some of the same things,

[applause] those are some great statistics. but this is not about statistics. it is about real people. like many people, i grew up in poverty and i can say firsthand having a job is not something anyone should ever take for granted. florida has experienced the most incredible economic revival because together, we were told to cut taxes over 80 times. which is saved more than 7.5 billion dollars. [applause] working together we have taken billions of dollars out of government hands and given effect florida families. like many of you here, this is my last year in this position. this is my last session to cut taxes. we must acknowledge that unfortunately at some point, there will be politicians sitting in this chamber who are not fiscally responsible as we are today. i'm sure there will be people down the road in our jobs that want to increase taxes. otherwise known as taking more money from hard-working floridians.decades ago florida voters had an amendment to the execution of prohibited a state in contested skeptics worn that bad things would happen. skeptics wer

one thing you did was to go into the statistics of the research. you mentioned one stat of man be a 93% of venture capitalist, women getting 2% of venture capital dollars released on 2016 numbers. >> uber with 20 some billion dollars. i think jennifer is one of the most successful ceos. the amount of capital you raise if you raise more money you get more chances to figure it out. you have more time so if a woman is getting 10 million and a guy getting hundred million, who's getting a better shot? >> what were other statistics that in your research you are like bison anybody talking about it first of all, it wasn't always this way. by 1984 windows was being introduced to the world. women accounted 230% of computer science degrees. that has since plummeted to 18%. and it's remain flat for the last decade. number two, the statistic of how quickly women are leaving the industry. when i started writing this a male investor said you don't have a book, it's very obvious that women just want to be home with their kids. so i just nodded. women are twice as

nato germany is the second largest supplier to turkey it is very difficult to find independent statistics about this but there was an official inquiry last year which revealed that germany approved around twenty five million euros in arms sales to the first eight months of twenty seventeen that's down the way if you compare it with the statistics one year before that but it is still obviously an important figure and it just reveals the extent of the military relationship between germany and. the anchor his recent use of german leopard tanks in northern syria has provoked heated debate some here in germany are calling for the government to halt orms exports to turkey under these circumstances tomas' could brylin really be considering closer military ties with turkey well close a military ties terry involved three particular aspect obviously the security aspect which is particularly important for germany and for turkey again we have to stress that they have both nato obviously the economic. and that we also discussed right he had that will be very important for germany the industry here in

danny, how significant are these statistics?e office for national statistics appear to indicate to me is certainly that brexit is having an impact on whether eu nationals want to live in the uk. if you look at the referendum june 2016, since then every quarter these figures are published there's been a drop in the number of eu nationals coming to live here and there's been a rise in the number of eu citizens leaving britain. the latest numbers we have got, 130,000 people leaving, that's the highest since 2008, and 220,000 arriving, the lowest for almost four years. at the same time we are seeing a rise in the number of people from outside europe coming to britain, the highest number since september 2011. what does this do for the controversial target to cut net migration, the difference between overall numbers coming and leaving to less than 100,000? they are still way off that target at 240 4000. danny, thank you very much indeed. the uk economy expanded by less than previously thought in the final three months of last year, of

to introduce some more contemporary statistics. i will finish with this and hope that we have a good conversati conversation. i think all of you know that there are 300 million firearm outside the police from outside of the army in the united states and that as they population of the united states. 74% are male and 82% are white which means that 61% of all adults that own guns are white men into this accounts for 21% of the total population. the top reason is for protecti protection. what are the majority of men so afraid of? does anyone believe that the centuries of racial and economic domination to the united states have left their traces in the cultural views or institutions it's not likely given the evidence to the contrary. it is compounded by the lack of acknowledgment of violence across the continent that continued such as the legal segregation and institutional racism, criminalization of incarceration. another countr contributes to te firearms so that is one of the chapters. thank you. ask him if we [applause] it's been som

of other states i don't make an argument i don't use adjectives or adverbs or rhetoric i proved statistically that it is beyond dispute. that but for james komi october twenty eighth letter hillary clinton is present united states and here's how i do it it took me months of research of all the polls that on the morning of october twenty eighth hillary clinton is up six percentage points nationally she won by three million popular votes she would have won by over seven million plus six in the battleground states let's just take the three you mentioned pennsylvania michigan and wisconsin on october twenty eighth she is ahead by substantial margins in those three states according to all the polls no. nothing out of what i just said all of them and then within three days in the afternoon of october twenty eighth comes to call me letter an avalanche of headlines across the country hillary clinton under new criminal investigation on e-mails all the networks all the cables twenty four seven all the media three days later her lead has collapsed in those three states and south carolina north carolina

no, you cannot prove almost any thing with statistics, at least not if you do it honest but who is tohose perpetuating spirals of argument because in the end we all make choices — you make choices about the data you put into your numbercrunching computers, you decide what particular facet of the human condition to profile, these are all subjective. then you challenge me and observers get to hear the various sides and they can see who has the most persuasive case. the fact that science has progressed shows that, despite human disagreements, despite the fact that all of us are blinded by our own biases, over the long run, with free speech, with open debate, with the ability to challenge people, with the onus to provide data to support your beliefs, over the long run, we can approach understanding and explanation and truth. no question i think that everybody would agree that data on global hunger and poverty eradication does suggests that, for most people in the world, in that very material sense, things are better today than they have ever been, for most people but, if you take the most

. >> guest: i looked at the statistics. i tried not to offerto opinions. i have opinions on mr. comey. i think rod rosenstein had it exactly right. what he did was to fire an event when he offered his opinion on the evidence in july 2016, something that is not allowed and is a firing offense when they offered his opinion on hillary clinton's e-mail practices not allowed. when he sent ant letter rock ovr 28, 11 days from the election, violating 50 years of justice department policies, defined the deputy attorney general's wishes. he did it anyways because he gets to decide what is right and what is wrong and that narcissistic attitude is what caused rod rosenstein to write a memo because the deputy attorney general by donald trump and he was exactly right and even in retrospect, james comey would not tell rod rosenstein he had any regrets. that's what a narcissist does. he defines what isy right. this book has the word higher loyalty. his higher loyalty is not to the law, to the policies or to the rules. he gets to violate them. you get to define what the loyalty is and it caused

my noble friend praises the objectivity of those who produce government statistics.his. if i continue to criticise the mandarins and the ministers who approved the statistics and this document, does that make me a snake oil salesman or a 1930s german nazi or a bit of both? he impugned pm partiality and good faith of our civil servants. they behave as president trump does in the united states with regard to the fbi. while i don't often want to open up a fresher front from the despatch box. but president trump, i hope will read what my noble friend... hasjust said. and finally, the recently—appointed secretary of state for digital, culture, media and sport fully embraced the digital part of his new brief by becoming the first mp to launch his very own smartphone app. the matt hancock app features picture galleries and videos of him. it also allows users to sign up as friends and chat with other fans of the matt hancock app. but there've been concerns about the apps privacy policy and whether it complies with the data protection act. what action does the secretary of st

but let's put some faces to these statistics, all right? one of the things i've tried to do in this book is to, you know, not only talk about the data, is to tell the human story about, you know, behind the data. so take, for example, this little 9-year-old girl named lanny turpin. lanny goes -- went to a public elementary school in alabama. and she was, unfortunately, the victim of bullying and of physical assault. in fact, she was, she was assaulted by another student which caused her to receive a concussion. she was bleeding all over her face. she had contusions. she was in bad shape. the school calls her mom in to pick lanny up. so the mom goes to the nurse's office, and the nurse then tells lanny's mom that, oh -- of course, lanny's mom asked, well, how did this happen? the nurse tells lanny's mom that, oh, she accidentally fell and hit her head. now, lanny -- although she had a concussion and was bleeding -- was able to pipe up and say, no, mama, i told them this other girl jumped me. so she was, so, of course, lanny's mom is then ext

we can keep all the statistics we want, but let's make sure we know what they all mean. i also wanted to talk about something that happened. a project sponsor reached out to me to say that someone who was a planning department staff, who is working with them, said don't contact your local m.b.s. the planning commissioners can't stand them. [laughter] and, you know, i -- i get it, i guess. you know, i'm a loud person. i represent a lot of loud and angry people. but i had trouble imagining that coming dpraosz any other loud, obnoxious group at city hall. i had trouble imagining that anyone would say that. i mean, san francisco is loud and obnoxious. i'm in good company. [laughter] i really just wanted to understand and open a dialogue between each one of you to sort of help you understand who we are and what we're about because we've grown a lot in the past four years. we've gone from a handful of angry millenials to a army of angry millenials and that deserves to be recognized by each and every one of you and having that passed down through the department so that they, fr

let's put some faces to these statistics.one of the things i've tried to do in this book is not only talk about the data it's to tell the human story about behind the data like so say for example this little 9-year old girl named manny turpin. she went to a public elementary school in alabama and she was unfortunately the victim of bullying and physical assault. she was assaulted by another student, which caused her to receive a concussion. she was bleeding all over her face. she had contusions and she was in bad shape. of the school calls her mom and to pick lanny up, so the mom goes to the nerve-- nurses office and the nurse then tells lanny's mom that oh-- of course when lanny's mom asked how this happened at the nurse tells lanny's mom that oh, she accidentally fell and hit her head. now, lanny although she had a concussion and was bleeding and was able to pipe up and say no, mama, i told them this other girl jumped me, so of course lanny's mom is extremely upset by this information and goes to the principle and asks the

my noble friend has praised the objectivity of those who produce government statistics.in this document, does that make me a sale or salesman or a 19305 that make me a sale or salesman or a 1930s german nazi? ministers who impute impartiality in good faith are behaving very much as president trump does in the united states, with regard to the fbi. i'm not sure i want to open up a fresh front... from the dispatch box. but president trumpl from the dispatch box. but president trump i hope will read more —— what my noble friend... (laughs). lord young. and finally, the recently appointed secretary of state for digital culture, media and sport fully embraced the digital part of his brief eye becoming the first mp to launch his very own smart phone app. the mataranka app features pictures galleries and videos of him, -- pictures galleries and videos of him, —— matt hancock app. it also allows users to sign up as friends and chat with other fans of the apps. but there have been concerns about the apps privacy and whether it concerns with the data protection act. what action sh

let me just remind you-all of a couple of statistics. when the house passed our defense authorization bill at exactly the same numbers that are in the cap deal we'll vote on today, the vote was 344-81. when we voted on the conference report at exactly the same defense levels that are in the cap deal today, the vote was 356-70. in the senate the votes were 89-8. and then the conference report was a voice vote. my point is there is widespread agreement in both parties that we have cut the military too much. that our service members are suffering as a result. and that we need to do better. this cap deal that will be voted on today is exactly the same funding levels as the bill that i just read the votes for. my view is that this -- fixing the military is the dominant priority. we have to fix the military. i know members on both sides have other concerns. i wouldn't do this cap deal exactly the same way, but we owe it to the men and women horrificing their lives for us to -- horrificing their lives for us the best -- who are are -- who are a

ijust looked at the statistics. i have opinions on mr. comey. think that rod rosenstein haded right. what he did was a firing offense when he offered his opinion on the evidence on july 355, 2016, something it not allowed and is a firing offense when he offered an opinion on hillary clinton's e-mail practices. and when he sent a letter 11 days before the e, violating over 50 years of justice department policies, defying the deputy attorney general's wishes, he did it anyway because he, james comby, gets to decide what is right and wrong and that narcissistic attitude caused rod rosenstein to write a memo. this the appointed deputy attorney general by donald trump and he was exactly right and even in retrospect, james comey would not tell mr. rosenstein he had any regretted. what's that a narcissist does. he defines what is right. his book hat the honoreds higher loyalty. his higher loyalty is not to the law to to the policies or the rules. he gets to violate them and gets to define what the loyalty is and it cost hillary clinton statistically, i

they make enormous leverage bets on statistical relationships.hen those relationships , it triggers a frenzy of selling and short covering. vonnie: these products that everybody was talking about , they are only responsible for $3 billion worth of cash. you're talking about a whole ecosystem -- erik: it exacerbates the problem. on the one hand, you have humans that are short vol. you also have these bots, computer-driven strategies that have to short cover. you have the rebalancing that was taking place in these exchange traded products. the xib is an exchange traded note. it gets a bit, located. that a bit -- it gets a bit complicated. they are doing short covering of their own. vix, you also have the long featured products. the long futures position is underweight. it creates this massive positive feedback loop, which drove the vix to 50 this morning. we haven't coming in -- we have it coming in, which suggests the likelihood of another move like what we saw yesterday is extremely low. yes, you still have these levered long products. they can i

this is a statistic that gets to me. 2017 we lost 80 service members in accidents and training incidents. nearly four times more than we lost in combat. in 2017, we lost 80 service members in accidents and training incidents, four times as many people we lost in combat. think about that. with better training and equipment, many of these deaths could have been prevented. this is a sad and tragic state of affairs. and this is why we can never allow anyone to politicize our military. or use our troops as bargaining chips. the stakes are too high for this. let me say one more thing. i know that there is a real commitment to solving the daca challenge in both political parties. that's a commitment i share. to anyone who doubts my intention to solve this problem and bring up a daca and immigration reform bill, do not. we will bring a solution to the floor, one the president will sign. we must pass this budget agreement first so we can get on to that. so please know that we're committed to getting this done. before i turn it over to chairman thornberry, i want to take a moment and thank him. i

turnaround in the statistics very dispiriting turn around in the statistics what makes you believe that the international community all of a sudden they will be able to you know change its mind and when they are told that complex well there's still a dream in my heart that the hopes of people every person i meet i tend to think there is a desire in their heart to have peace and i think sometimes. in diplomacy circles we tend to talk about the little things that distract us versus the bigger things that can attract us and i think the united nations in my opinion has not done the job that it should have done in the past twenty thirty years but i think you have new leadership in the united nations i think you have new leadership around the world this really looking to find paths of opportunity but until we have those conflicts resolved we have to have money in the world food program and then we have to have access so yes we were able to avert famines the four famines that we faced faced in the past couple of years and face right now we were able to avert the famine but the number of hungry

number two, was the statistic about how quickly women are leaving this industry.you know so -- when i started writing this book a male investor said to me, you don't have a book. it's very oven. women just want to be at home with their kids it is biological they want to take care of their kids. that's the answer. and so -- i just nodded. >> what else would you have said? [laughter] >> women are twice as likely to leave tech but not leaving to care of their children but work in other fields. women are 800% more likely to leave jobs in technology than in any other field. yeah, when i heard 107% i was astonished why isn't anybody talking about this? and so -- for an industry that loves data well data tells the story. >> what is the one thing that, you know, as you were thinking because we're talking about research we're talking about data because we're -- [laughter] in technology. we should probably know these things. what do you think it is that makes these numbers -- so easy to ignore? >> i think people believe that silicon valley is a mare took city and they can c

speaking of numbers i have some silicon valley stats for you and i know statistics normally are kind of boring. you might be interested in these. take a look from a brand-new report from joint venture silicon valley. the average salary $130,000, slightly more than half of the people in the bay area speak a language other than english at home and our communities are almost exactly one-third kau kigs, one-third asian, one-third hispanic. the number of homes sold continues to fall. as it has for five years people aren't selling. a vast majority of people who retire in silicon valley stay in their homes instead of downsizing. that means there are fewer houses for sale. more statistics, if tech buses were a transportation agency they would be the seventh largest in the bay area. about the same size as cal train, the tech buses. these calls come from joint venture silicon valley. the speech about what's going on. i find these statistics fascinating. >> very much so. >> we are so very different. >> thanks a lot, scott. 6:16 right now. tug of war over short-term rental units is heating up. a
