[laughter] okay, come on. let's look at it, gang. let's look at it. you say 10. did it have an average speed of 10? see, it fell for one second, but its average speed wasn't 10. if you take a couple of quizzes and the first quiz you take is zero and the next quiz you take is 10 and someone says, "how do you do in physics?" "oh, i'm not bragging an average of 10." no, you--average of 10. what's your average if you get a zero and a 10? five. five. in the middle, huh? so when i started, the thing wasn't moving at all. one second later, it's going 10, but the average then is five. so the average speed of five meters per second over that one second gives you a distance of five meters. so it's only gonna fall five meters, gang. and we can do that for any number of meters if we just do it in general. say, like this. the average speed when acceleration is constant

there is more and more radical opinion giving voice to far right views. i think of cause there if we can all deny there are problems with immigrants they are already being forced to do great things and it's the problem that this process of integration is functioning that it is a basic problem but the thing is first of all multiculturalism first of all has always been. something that was used in a political context and secondly i do not believe that this was a key policy of the european union european union is an economic projects and that is that was the key policy what is the big what is the real problem in society i do believe that there is a problem with immigration in europe i also believe that there is a much bigger problem with the economic reconstruction of europe as an issue on which is causing all this social frustration also coming your way this hour boot bargaining moscow lays the groundwork for a possible handover of the russian businessman jailed in the last for what he sees as a clinical persecution. and a small slice of a peaceful life insi

who wins or who's winning thus far? >> well, i actually think the republicans are winning this fight. which in some ways, let's face it, these ads they put out, a lot of the political ads are propaganda. i think in this way they have very much won this war. you have democrats on the defensive on of all things medicare. something that they have been the champions of and something that people are more readily identify democrats with than republicans. you saw republicans lose a race in upstate new york over this issue. they have since been able to reframe it and frame obama as someone who is stealing in medicare. in actuality it's slowing the cost of growth and saving money in the medicare vantage. but you see there that republicans have been very, very smart in getting on the sonnive there around ryan's plan. and in some ways being able to separate mitt romney from paul ryan. who knows if it'll be effective down the line, if they're going to be able to keep this going. but so far so good. we'll see ryan in florida. i thin

colbert agrees that the black and white picture being painted of the syrian conflict in the media is far from. what this shows is a coordinated series of efforts on the part of the media to really to to really undermine basic journalistic truth when it comes to the reporting in favor of skewing the story against the assad government and towards the the rebels and that shows the political bias of many of these outlets but what's happening in syria even if we want to talk simply about the internal conflict in syria we have to look at the deep sectarian divisions in syria and talk about the the sunni majority the shia minority the alawite minority within that shia minority christians and how all of those forces are at play in this conflict and it's something much much more difficult to understand than simply framing it in that pro-democracy versus tyranny type debate that that appeals to to the black and white narrative that they're trying to portray and i think that doesn't even take into account the bigger picture of the international forces that play there more of the stories from us thi
