the experiments lost will be duplicated in the fifth osl.hey are in various stages of fabrication and test at the contractor plant. present knowledge of the sun has shown the need for a higher position, higher capacity spacecraft for the study of solar phenomena. last year, and engineering model of an advanced orbiting solar observatory was completed. the stabilization and guidance system is being built. some sensors are under testing laboratory -- under test in the laboratory. astronomy, the study of the universe, achieves new dimensions in the ability to put instruments above the earth's atmosphere. here, they may measure gamma rays, x-rays, ultraviolet, infrared, and radiowaves that will not reach the ground. after five years of exceedingly difficult developing work, the first orbiting astronomical observatory was being readied for flight. the experiment packages have been tested and integrated into the first flight model. ao will contain packages from university wisconsin, goddard space flight center, and other scientific agencies and un

, not my only experience but by the most extreme experience of domestic terror. >> howard, you talked earlier about trends in jewish books. we have this. is this kind of literature new within the context of the community? >> no, it's not what we're seeing more of it. there's more jewish detective fiction. there's actually a large sub saundra -- sub genre. there is the race of compulsion, the fictional take from that. one of the things that is interesting is the book written in the 50s or 60s, but there's always been a great discomfort among was violent. we all are uncomfortable with violence, but when it happens within the community. some of the novels are sort of showing the underbelly, the parts we don't like to acknowledge that happen among, so i think that is something explored. >> interesting. we'll take a quick break and return in just a moment here. >>> welcome back to mosaic. we're in the middle of a wonderful conversation with summer brenner and the executive director of the jewish committee library here in san francisco. welcome back. every anthology has a rationale behind i

what do people experience in their brains when they feel religious and spiritual experience? >> what we've been awaiting is the level of genetic analysis and the level of imaging analysis to be able to get to this critical intersection point. >> participants, like auriel first undergo a structural m-r-i, that gives a detailed picture of the brain at rest. next is a functional m-r-i that records auriel's brain activity while she's reading quotes about faith that are paired with photos of religious figures. next up, church videos depicting mormon culture. during each, auriel has to press a button to indicate "how strongly are you feeling the spirit" and "how spiritually meaningful is this"? before and after the scans blood was drawn. >> what molecules are you looking to preserve? one of them is called oxytocin and the other one, vasopressin. they are also involved in reproduction, so it makes sense that the same hormones or molecules that are causing you to have romance are also influencing how you feel good. and perhaps are giving us some hints as to similarities between relig

this is the data from last night's experiments.he concentrations of chemicals that are important contributors to smog. like ogown and nirt -- ozone and produce. >> reporter: what does it take way from the experiment? >> the chemical and the rehabilitation pathway is not responsible for forming the ozone in smog. >> reporter: when you finish future? >> i'm not sure. i have a good three years to go. it would be great to stay in the academic realm and do the research that i'm doing now. i think it would be interesting to bring what i have learnt about the scenes back into helping shape policies that can improve air quality in the u.s. and around the world. >> so just to clarify, we should not cut down trees, right >>> absolutely, he just showed how trees were part of this, and when human pollutants gets in the air, mixes with the trees and we get smog. it was fascinating. >> we used to do a through the of theoretical research. what is next for kelvin? >>> i'm convinced he'll run the e.p.a. what god to meet some interesting people. >>

now with the just an advent of technology our kids can really experience those places. through video through movies through text, through just so many different things that perhaps in our generation we didn't have opportunity to experience that. but it is very important that you start that planning process very early on. so we know path we take to take for our we know our children to take we help them to walk that path. >> what would you like to add to what your hearing? >> well i also agree when you talk about single parent versus traditional homes. i -- the language is huge. we know from research that student who or child pre-k who ears lots of different vocabulary has much more will do better in school. so we in the school level do a lot towed due indicate parents about that. we show them graphiccly what student who has exposure to lots of language and things at the home, and much more successful entering school. and when you talk about that that drive, of the student we call educational grit. of kid who comes to school, who prepared, and has that support at home and

and the user experience. and that's what mobile device offers in a somewhat unique way is the way to improve both the user experience and security, and that's a rare thing in the payments field. through the kinds of technologies we've already mentioned, like the device location or unique device identifier and do it in a way where the user controls what information they're sharing. so that's the holy grail we're all trying to achieve. and also want to emphasize that all the same risk programs are still running in the background. so it's -- we don't assume that there's a silver bullet type solution in security. so even if we do have a customer who is taking advantage, say, of the fingerprint authentication or device location and they pass that test, we're still running all these other tests in the background, looking for risk variables in the transaction. so it's a matter of adding to risk-reducing programs that already exist, not substituting them purely with new types of authentication or security. >> thank y

it's about the experience of this drastic change that you do not expect as a kid to feeling go through, were supposed to be talking about our favorite writing what my favorite was when i was seven, i was writing amazing poetry then but as i have become more older i've been, more sensitive of myself. that's it. >> i'm wendy, i'm the author of two books, the first is called excavation, memoir, it is about a period of time where i was in a relationship with my junior high teacher and this took place in the san fernando valley in los angeles, los angeles is very much a character in this book, my second book is called hollywood notebook, came out this year, i call it up pros memoir fragments. it's about moving away to olympia washington for eight years, moving back to los angeles and trying to figure out what i'm doing in the city that is my home. but it did not feel like home when i returned immediately so those are my two books. >> hi my name is melody my first book was called war on terror my last book was about a bipolar life and it's about having bipolar disorder and being bipolar cult

that was my experience. it was a very good experience. we all got along well together and i learned a lot from that. recently i got another notification of potential jury duty so that is my experience. >> next mike in oregon. good morning. what was your experience like? i it was 10 years ago or so served on a trial jury for dui. the grand jury process here in oregon was we only heard felony cases and in the morning, we would have a list of cases with the appropriate oregon revised statute that the suspect was charged with and the volumes of statute were on the table. so you look up the appropriate law and hear the evidence of the crime and decide whether or not there was the preponderance of evidence for the case to proceed to trial. or a trialguilty itself, was there enough evidence for the charges to proceed. host: what did you find? caller: it was very interesting, educational and seems like a very fair system. the people i served with, i would've hoped they would of heard my case because it was deliberated fairly. we stuck to the law.

more hands only and terms of in order to experience the are learning. being able to share that before issues occur that proactive relationship building around your child. and ihink that also establishes an important facactor in the child's mind in a sense that he or she underutand hey my mom or my dad and teachrs are all here for me as team. to help be me to grow to help me to be the best that i can be and it is not going to be a negative kind of situationon war can pit two against each oher but mower can rely on the partnership that's being developed between the family andhe schools so is that i can be better. but starts with conversation. just like we having now. sitting down with that teacher, sitting down with that principal, having those real conversations about your child and takin every opppportunity to put yourself in that situation to be able to have those conversations. whether school offer like i snow the buildings in our school district we offer multiple opportunities for parents to come in be own tyings parent information nights curriculum

as far as your experience going downtown for care, i do the same thing. i have private health insurance as well as insurance at the v.a. and i agree completely that it's the veterans' v.a. and we are constantly reminding the v.a. of that. we're a non-partisan organization and we work with other private nonprofit partners to make sure veterans are receiving the care they deserve that we've earned and i would just highlight to your point, you know, the more veterans that we can get in to the v.a., i think would help us transform it. and i don't know your personal experience but i do share similar challenges with the v.a. from my own personal experience. but i'll say this and it's not just because i'm an optimist. i remember when i deployed to iraq in 2006, may of 2006, we were losing well over 100 folks a month. there was a civil war happening after the samarra mosque bombing earlier that year and when i left in september of '07, american deaths were below 100 a month. things had gotten better is my point. so regardless of what you thought of the situation

we don't have a common experience. we've never had fewer veterans in congress in our nation's history than today. a lot of people -- the older guys talk about how it was different when you knew that you may have political differences, but you could focus on what was best for america when you came to congress, because you had that common experience of fighting together in the war. >> is some of that a product of necessity versus opportunity? there's the wpa and cca days but there was massive unemployment and people needed jobs. it was a purposeful, top down government way to get everyone organized which ended up with gigantic public works projects. is there a need for american kids to say, i'm going to take a year off and help the world when they can enter the work force and a lot of them make good bill and get going? not feel the connection like you said with the military. you are not part of the 1%. you are not feeling the connection to the war. not feel the connection to anything to do with global security, which is

>> i actually never experience a glass ceiling. i felt as though hard work, street smarts and book smart was going to get whoever up to the top and i did not experience that at all. >> good to hear. what about personal and professional sacrifices that are necessary. honestly you all work very hard, i know i try to get them on a conference call, it was impossible. what kind of personal sacrifices might you make to be president of a giant company. >> like all of the slaters i'm sure number people in the audience we all make sacrifices regardless of where we are in our career. i'll tell you a story, after i started working at the merger i was running basically a massive work of ms. a massive organization. i was pregnant with my son, i was frankly terrified to say i just took this new role and all my gosh, pregnant. again i felt this huge stress and it was like something i did wrong, is really terrified. i remember for the first three months i was trying my hardest to hide the fact that i was pregnant. this was 2009. but i was, and it

if you want to enter to win my experience, bono's experience, george clooney's, go to omazazcom/red. all the information is there. it's not a bidding thing. it's more like a raffle. anyone has a chance to win. you don't have to be super rich. fr our pal snoop dogg tonight who is here to bring some much needed green this holiday season. and my shopathon partner tonight will be the lovely olivia wilde. and we have music, holiday music, in fact, it's a song that i wrwre with them last yeaeato benefit red from the killers. they are going to be here performing.

[ cheers and applause ] >> yes, jimmy, i am here. and i'm standing by to take donation calls. >> jimmy: : u're taking calls. that's not really -- we're not -- it's not a call thing. >> i don't want to embarrass you but nobody's calling. >> jimmy: nobody's calling? it's not a tell-athon, scarlett. everything's through the website. so guilt.com/red. >> then why in the hell am i sitting in front o

(orlando wooldridge) yeah, it was a great experience. you know, first of all, to lived over in italy to experience another culture; and also, to have the opportunity, because we were in international competition. i played literally, israel to finland. and, just the sheer experience of traveling all over the world and meeting different people and. and sharing my interpretation of the game of basketball to the people over in europe; it was just remarkable. i thank god for having that experience. (buck mcneely) oh, you bet. basketball has grown into one of the most popular sports on the planet. it's universally loved. (orlando wooldridge) it's been a long career, but it's been a fun career. (buck mcneely) and of course, you played on some of the best teams, with some of the greatest stars in the league. (orlando wooldridge) i got a chance to play with michael the league, played two years with him. i had an opportunity to play with guys like magic johnson, kareem abdul-jabbar, dennis rodman and isiah thomas. you know, the list goes on and ve

i feel i qualified with my years of experience. just not experience a good experience. i am proactive. i'm not responsive grower. >> thank you. what about the state laws that are coming before us that go before voter approval for growers. what is the range of options that are being put forward for how growers will be treated? how do you think that would affect san francisco in terms of growing whether we would see it happening, and being supplied by growers outside the city or see a huge increase in growers here, and how would that be manage? >> that depends on the zoning and the building department inspections. the people of the community how they feel, how many dispensaries should be allowed as well as growers and how much space and symptoms. san francisco's kind of small so we have a lot of vertical space we can take advantage of that with changes. i think that would accommodate a lot of things and resolve a lot of problems. keep everything here in san francisco where it started. at least set the bar where it starts and continued to set the bar higher for other state

warad that experience -- governor. i had that experience. the 9/11 experience, the veterans experience, the other candidates were president -- for president do not have that experience in a time of crisis. it is the right topic, but often the wrong candidate. i am the right candidate to keep us safe in this time of crisis here in the united states of america. [applause] mr. gilmore: thank you. you may have noticed i have been excluded from some of these debates. has anyone here ever been excluded from anything? it's ok, you pick yourself up and you keep going. but i say to you right now, i may be excluded, and maybe an outsider, but in this time of crisis, i am no amateur. i say to you now, as members of the republican jewish coalition and a time of international crisis, this is no time to put an amateur in the white house. [applause] i do have a plan, because i understand the danger of this. we had the international guerrilla conflict that i referred to, and the state conflict -- the russians have emerged because of our policy under preside

and this is a great experience.y on campus, and that's what we're about is building a latiomnity at san jose state, so i'm proud of it. damian: i can tell you're getting great support from the administration there, so that's good to know. we'll be back and actually watch them perform in front of some kids when we continue here on "comunidad del valle." stay with us. in your comunidad on que pasa.

>> it makes sense that if people can have a deep enough experience of coming to terms with trauma, that you can argue whether it's a cure or a durable remission, but in any case she doesn't have the symptoms that would qualify for the diagnosis of ptsd anymore. >> the mithoefers received enough funding to enter a second phase of testing. this time, a test group of war veterans with ptsd participated. the results from this study will be submitted to the fda. their long term goal is to study whether mdma should be re-classified by the fda so it becomes legal for medicinal uses. >> i think the rational thing to do is to learn everything we can about the possible risks and benefits and act accordingly. not to put it in a separate category just because it's been used recreationally. >> coming up on "techknow", the u.s. military's secret roll in psychedelic drug testing. >> we want to hear what you think about these stories. join the conversation by following us on twitter and at aljazeera.com/techknow. >> the drug was given orally to the men in the hospital ward at 11:15 and they immediately

how was that experience? >> that was so fun. i got to be with the mayor at the copeally holiday fest v an introduction to christmas in the city of boston and i was there with a couple of people from the urban nutcracker cast and other people from boston balay it was really fun and it was really an experience, unbelievable. i will never forget it. >> we're going to turn a little [native language] >> it is a very different audience. >> we have two special shows, one is an autism-friendly show, which is so incredible because there are families who have a child who maybe has trouble sitting through a whole performance or get overwhelmed by bright lights so we have one show ritz ok if they make noise and it's fine and anybody can come and even if it's hard for them to sit through the two hours they can come and enjoy as much as they can take in and so that's really, really amazing that it's so welcoming to all families. it is really nice. and we also have an lgbt friendly show with drag queens and all sorts of fun and so that's anoth

not the only retailer reinventing the in-store experience. from ralph lauren and rebecca minkoff' s adding interactive mirrors to some of their stores? , and monitors inside mega-makeup chain sephora stores where you can get personalized skincare and fragrance reccomendations at the touch of a button. >> target has to improve in-store experience because otherwise people would just shop online. target is trying to up the convience factor so customers will come to the stores. >> 80% of online shopping carts are abandoned before checkout. shopping in stores means customers are much more likely to complete their purchases. >> rfid technology will realtors are going to use this experience more convenient for consumers. phil: for the second-year in the row the internet is translating into big business for the girl scouts. the organization sold 2 1/2 million boxes of cookies online this year even though overall sales were down. many scouts are also setting up their own cookie-selling websites instead of those sidewalk and door-door operations. there

has great experience, great relevant experience for the job she's been assigned. what you need to do as you go through these buy versus build decisions is make absolute ly certain that you're buying what creates a best practice and not necessarily creating a franken system where you start out and it looks great, but then you say this congressional mandate needs this reporting. this congressional mandate or this special project is requested by some senator requires so many variants that by the time you get finished what you bought bears no resemblance to the baseline project you want to maintain. we had a hearing where senator brown and i moved a bill that's going to provide a benefit, and i think, sloan, you were in that hearing, where i said, it's a shame that a benefit that over ten years will equate to about $6.2 million is going to require $5.1 million in systems changes before you can start providing the benefit. we need to make sure you can come back. i want to associate myself with the comments made by most of the members and i share the frustration of sena

and, you know, this has often been praised as one of the best novels about the experience of the warsn iraq and afghanistan. and, you know, i'm interested in, as somebody who writes nonfiction, i see myself as both playing a role specifically as a biographer both being be a historian and also being a writer. and that, you know, biography is about the world and the outer world and, in my case, the making of the modern world, but it's also following someone's life, you know, through, as they move through the world can and trying to understand, you know, the person and trying to evoke something that you ultimately can't get to in nonfiction is something that i try to do. and so i'm always reading fiction. i actually read for pleasure much more fiction than nonfiction. so having just written this book about someone who went through war, terrible, the nation's costliest war in our history, george armstrong custer in the civil war, and he came out of it with his romantic mindset, i've really been interested in recent writing about, you know, our experience overseas. and so, you know, i love

and i think that's what that business experience will bring. a candidate with business experience. fernando: and john, how do you contrast that? think of on both sides right now, i can't think of one who doesn't have the ability to make tough decisions. they might make decisions i'd like better than other decisions. but i don't think we have any neophytes. fernando: moving on to the economy, something that's number one in every poll in terms of concerns. from your perspective, do we have a vibrant economy? if not, what are you looking for in terms of changes that some future leader, a future president would make? rebecca: as a college student, i mean, obviously i'm concerned about tuition costs. i'm looking for a candidate who will focus on middle class, focus on students, making college affordable. that would definitely be my main priority. i don't have the same income as maybe the other people that are here. , going to pay for college, make this work? i'm looking for a candidate who is going to appreciate the needs. the needs of college students everywhere. a.j.: i would agree th

who can speak to that experience. and to the kind of sense memory that someone who's been working in a trade for 20, 25 years, 30 years in some cases, who are creating goods, the spoken goods, that fuelled the economy of the 1770s. and now, in 2015, we're moving back to a society that values the spoken goods. and they make real things and they do it in a real will way. it's authentic. >> and what happens with the goods that are produced? we use the goods to help populate the city to function. as a destination for our guests. many of our trades people are producing goods for other institutions and people who place orders with us. for example, a brewery might order casks from our cooper shop and they make it in an 18th soench ri way. and that's part of the value of the product that the brewery will use in the bucket. so we used these objects. guests have an opportunity to purchase. and we fill orders internationally for people who value authentic goods. does that ring in? from a historian's perspective, we're trying to
