project that is just wrapping up which activated a number of new pedestrian beacons, they're called hawks, which help the vehicles stop when a pedestrian is present. i attended a meeting yesterday at oakland caltrans headquarters with high level manager there is and we talk -- managers there and we talked about doing additional outreach and making sure that the project wraps up which i think that the last two hawks have been turned on i was told yesterday by the project manager. and making sure that we follow-up as we learn more information about it. so the state and the city are working in partnership to make sure that we follow-up on, and this was a project that the state sponsored and followed up on in terms of providing all of these different crosswalks on slope with additional traffic signal devices to make sure that the incidents like this don't repeat themselves.

you are seeing the kitty hawk flyer in all its glory.this thing is the first step in a dream that we as humans have had for a long time — the dream of flying around in a flying car. this test flight flown by brittney lasted about nine minutes. right now, battery capacity allows for around 20 minutes, but the speed is limited to 6mph. not exactly fast travel, but you can cut them some slack. this is a flying car, after all. i really don't have to think about a lot, other than letting the aircraft do its thing, and then putting in where i want to go. it's, like, that simple. that's the beauty of it, because you're about, you're flying, beautiful scenery, and ijust tell it where i want to go. i don't have to ever think about anything, the controls, so it's like, all you have to think about is how awesome it is to fly. kitty hawk has created this small hangout at the edge of a lake near las vegas. the location is important. it rarely rains, but it does get incredibly hot, and sometimes too windy to fly. the vehicle itself weighs less than 25

ethan hawke i thought was brilliant.ely believed in him, i really believed in his character. the most important thing is it felt like schrader was back on home territory. he is dealing with themes he's dealt with since the beginning of his career. there's a couple of scenes in which we see ethan hawke writing his diary, he has a glass of whiskey on one side and he's writing and he's very, very tormented. this apparently is how schrader himself used to write. the look of the film is very sparse, it reminds you to some extent of dry, of something like pawlikowski's ida. i know that schrader has spoken to that director about making that film. it looks heartfelt, it looks passionate, it has none of the nonsense of dominion: prequel to the exorcist, which was theoretically a theological work, but which was absolute hooey. it really feels sincere, it's dealing with important issues, it's got a great central performance. it looked really good. it's schrader back on form. i think it's the best thing he's done since auto focus. i

the hawk keeps tri-state ungeten.ow the name you know him now because hawkins is a baller. he's got 18 for try state. >> jim: of course it would end like this in dramatic fashion. he started off slow ended up with 18 points. we pumped him up about winners k out. good d and better o. >> brian: and head coach of power watching that one look at the doctor. he says, my guy. jermaine o'neal.

i want to say something about those hawk signals. as you can imagine this is very confusing, at least for the feedback that i have gotten, is for people that just all of a sudden see it when they're driving, they don't get it. and, actually, it took me a little bit to get it and it was explained to me how it should work. so i'm just curious, like, it seems like in other locations where they have used that -- i forget, al meadeo or san jose, they used this system, they actually get caltran. maybe this is a caltran question. >> the deputy is here and he'd be willing to talk about hawks. and the signals that were installed are relatively new to san francisco but they started out in arizona, tucson, arizona, actually developed them. and then they got adopted for national use by the hscwa and they spread across the areas. and there had been some issues about people not understanding what all of the signals mean as i think that caltrans is undertaking an educational campaign. the first one installed office at forestview due to a fatality t

sides of the political aisle and in corporate media here in the united states we hear on watching the hawks felt it was important to remind everyone just how important individuality and independent breed thought truly is and the great leo tolstoy once said free thinkers are those who are willing to use their minds without prejudice and without fearing to understand things that clash with their own customs privileges or believes this state of mind is not common but it is essential for right thinking. today we highlight a trio of three free thinkers who have graced our airwaves with their individuality and challenge the political status quo with their fearless search for truth among the forest of lies being shouted out from the corridors of power both in washington and on wall street starting with the late ed schultz the consummate newsman an anchor who spent his career giving a voice to working class america and delivering to them the news that truly mattered to their lives not the fluff that's peddled as important but ultimately just designed for distraction clicks and ratings points next w

welcome aboard the watching the hawks i am tyrrel been and i'm tabitha la. tell me please what possible justification could be f.b.i. have for this whole. sharing both sides drumming up terror plots that don't really really really exist so they can can keep getting the huge budget that they get every year to fight terror besides that one yeah because they want to make that one about it ok so one day with many of the public ok yes they are with their magical just because well stephen anthony special agent in charge of the f.b.i. is cleveland field office praise didn't offend the investigation telling the media quote law enforcement cannot sit back and wait for mr pitts to commit a violent attack we don't have the luxury of hoping an individual decides not to harm someone or get others to act oh wait so when domestic violence situations happen in which someone says hey i'm afraid this person is going to kill me because they told me they're going to kill me or they're going to hurt me but they can't do anything until the person does something wrong. but in this

david hawkings joins us. see as the priorities of mitch mcconnell and house speaker paul ryan in the coming weeks? keep things running as smoothly and to drama free as possible. there is not a large legislative ahead.in the weeks to makel and ryan want progress on the annual appropriations bill. the house announced that they will take up another appropriations bill the week of july 16. are the past one that combines are three of the least controversial bills, and they are you past one that can -- combined two bills. on all ofoving ahead the appropriations bills, so keeping that regular process going to for as long as possible knowing that after labor day, there will be some shutdown, showdown drama for sure. that is one priority for mitch mcconnell. the other priority is moving along on nominations. more judges that they want to move along and the big news of the summer will be president trump's announcement of his choice to succeed anthony kennedy on the courts and that will become number one on the hit para

so, first reformed, ethan hawke, a return to the screen for him. has he been away a while?rader. paul schrader wrote taxi driver ages and ages ago. he was really well respected film—maker. recently, he‘s made some quite terrible films like the canyons, which is irredeemably awful, dog eat dog, which i can‘t even believe was made by paul schrader, and then before that dominion, a prequel to the exorcist. i kind of started to lose faith in him, and now with first reformed my faith in him is restored. so, ethan hawke plays this young cleric who is basically haunted by the death of his son, who he sent off, he encouraged to go off to war, and has now lost. he‘s having a crisis of faith. he is keeping a diary in which he‘s writing down personal confessions because he says he can‘t pray, he‘s lost his faith. then he meets somebody who is potentially an ecoterrorist, somebody who‘s become completely obsessed with the despoliation of the planet. suddenly, this captures a spark in ethan hawke‘s character. the next thing, he similarly becomes obsessed with what‘s happening to the pla

welcome aboard watching the hawks i am tyrrel ventura and i'm tabitha la. tell me please what possible justification could be f.b.i. have for this whole. showing both sides drumming up terror plots that don't really really really exist so they can can keep getting the huge budget that they get every year to fight terror besides that one yeah because they want to make that one out about it ok so i wonder if they were meant to the public ok yes they are with their magical just because well stephen anthony special agent in charge of the f.b.i. has cleveland field office praise didn't offended the investigation telling the media quote law enforcement cannot sue.

hawking's joins us. he is senior editor with cq and roll call. as congress comes back from their break, what do you see as the priorities for mitch mcconnell and house speaker paul ryan in the coming weeks? david: to keep things running as smoothly on drama-free as possible i think would be the overarching desire. there is not a large legislative agenda in the weeks ahead. i think mcconnell and ryan, more than anything, want to make some progress on the annual appropriations bills. the house announced they will take up another appropriations bill the week of july 16 that is a combination bill, there is supposed to be a dozen bills. they already passed one the combined three of the least controversial bills. they are going to take up another that contains two, one of them not financial services bill. the senate appropriations committee is moving ahead on all of its appropriations bills. so keeping that regular process going for as long as possible knowing that after labor day there will be some shutdown -showdown drama almost for sure. that is one

god bless america turn on the t.v. a lot start watching the hawks. you. want to feel that the. real that would be. as if you were to pull out of. what they like you know that i got. this. week so. well for the watching the hawks i am tired of all that are on top of the law and i have student loan debt so i'm not god damn right this is this is ridiculous like i have i mean that i didn't think i would see i mean i saw the shades of a little bit of the running man over the years of you know how far reality t.v. in m.m.a. and that kind of thing has gone but i never thought i would see people who are legitimately suffering be forced to kind of go on this not force but volunteer to go on this game show and then compete to see who can you know get rid of their student loan debts this is ridiculous and tragic in my mind you know amounts to no and you don't have that and i'm not smart like you and everyone else want to say yeah i'm super smart let's see you let me do the math i'm the super super smart kid who got thirty two thousand dollars worth of loans for a college education to cove

war on terror these three individuals are the voices who embody the very definition of watching the hawks. from the bottom. like you know that i got. the dirty little secret in all of this wonderful economy and it is really good you have to admit i mean in the stock market you've got people's retirements you've got four a one k.'s you've got the education fund for young kids i mean families are building in the stock market if they're in it now here's the bad news with the tax cut health care costs are going up and the president the only thing he talked about in the state of the union was the mandate what's the rest of the story because interest insurance rates are going to go up dramatically in two thousand and eighteen and now the republicans own it they've done one move on health care and it hasn't been a good one so are they going to let this sit by the roadside as road kill or are they going to pick up the mantle and do something about it and so this advantage of the tax cut that these middle class families are going to get that they're talking about that's going to get wiped out by t

wrote we're going to watch the hawks i have a robot and and have a lot. to. say and there are almost no many things wrong with wal-mart and this is just a small amount of them so according to this patent document that was filed with the u.s. government wal-mart is saying that they're calling in this invention and listening to the front end you sound like i were just listening to that from and on. and if you think that wal-mart isn't going to isn't interested in what we're saying as if it's just as oh no just the sound the buttons and cards claim going and we'll figure it all out in their their patent actually states many different types of sounds result from people and. shopping facility for example guests of the shopping facility may talk amongst each other or the employees of the shopping facility so obviously know that this thing can't just be you're going to be recording. but then i just wonder how this is going to in states where you have two party consent you where you require two party consent so is it just going to be a sign saying you're probably bei

so here it is, the kitty hawk flyer. i'm sitting in it right now.ery simple in here, just two controls — one for altitude, one for the direction of where this thing can go. around me you'll see there are ten propellers, ten motors that keep this thing in the air. essentially, i guess you could say it's just basically a big drone that a human being can fit in. right now, they limit the speed, to around six miles an hour. the battery life will keep it going for around 20 minutes. all of that will improve in time, they certainly make it go faster right now, butjust to be cautious they are keeping it around six miles an hour. in terms of when you can get one of these, the company is taking preorders right now. they won't tell us exactly how much it's going to cost, but they say it's going to be comparable to a high end electric car, so the tens of thousands of dollars, i guess you could say. but what we're sitting in, many people think is a glimpse of the future. they say their goal is to eliminate traffic, and that's a goal i think many of us can get b

reservoir the watching the hawks am i robot or on top of the. savage the neighborhoods are crumbling people are put in you know the harm of lead them is not being cleaned up good you know you wouldn't know that watching television these days you know i would mean this or anything like that. of course but then look at look at what happened in flint the water crisis started in april of two thousand and fourteen it wasn't national news to the fall of two thousand and fifteen they didn't declare a state of emergency until twenty sixteen and they won't have truly clean water that they can drink from their taps until twenty twenty so you know when got all the attention but remember what happened in january twenty sixth and what was going to be sixteen that the whole idea of poison children like permanently poisoned boulder and was and is not just in places like watch watch is a good example is yet one of those like you know who prudent look down upon neighbor right it's a poor angeles is a poor neighborhood and so what is that a poor black neighborhoo

we have been talking with david hawkings. thanks so much. >> thank you very much. >> the c-span bus is traveling across the country on our 50 capitals tour. fairbanks,pped in alaska, asking folks what's the most important issue in alaska. >> the issue most important to me is the environment. as you can imagine, -- on the seafood industry. with environmental changes in my community, that industry has the potential to be wiped out. >> i'm running for governor of alaska. i was born and raised in the state of alaska. i have three platform issues that we are needing to take care of in the state. one is abortion. one is the budget plan. and one is giving the money back to the people. from the veto and state of action that took place two years ago and on coming this year. i want to give it all that with interest. i think it is the right of the people to have them be able to keep the resources that belong to the shareholders of the state. thank you very much. >> one thing that has been on my mind lately is a lot of children suffering

the hawk beacon crossing system was in place. it's a safety design made to protect pedestrians, but most agree because it's new it can be confusing. >> people really didn't get it, you know, like what am i

ethan hawke i thought was brilliant.nce the beginning of his career. there's a couple of scenes in which we see ethan hawke writing his diary, he has a glass of whiskey on one side and he's writing and he's very, very tormented. this apparently is how schrader himself used to write. the look of the film is very sparse, it reminds you to some extent of dry, of something like pawlikowski's ida. i know that schrader has spoken to that director about making that film. it looks heartfelt, it looks passionate, it has none of the nonsense of dominion: prequel to the exorcist, which was theoretically a theological work, but which was absolute hooey. it really feels sincere, it's dealing with important issues, it's got a great central performance. it's schrader back on form. i think it's the best thing he's done since auto focus. it's not a bunch of laughs, but it is very, very intense. it has some hallucinatory moments in it. i thought it was a really fine piece of work, and i would happily watch it again. it looks beautiful...

of all the watching the hawks able to rope in her and on top of. the neighborhoods are crumbling people are put in the harm of lead to not being cleaned up good you know you wouldn't know that watching television these days or no i would mean this or anything like that you know of course and then look at look at what happened in flint. the water crisis started in april of two thousand and fourteen and wasn't national news for the fall of two thousand and fifteen they didn't declare a state of emergency until twenty sixteen and they won't have truly clean water that they can drink from their tap until twenty twenty so you know when i got all the attention but remember what happened in january of twenty six and what was going on for sixteen the whole idea of poison children like permanently poisoned older and was. and is not just in places like watch watch is a good example of one of those who don't look down upon neighbor right it's for angeles as a poor neighborhood and that's what everyone was considered a poor black and i mean exactly and it's of

ethan hawke i thought was brilliant.hing is it felt like schrader was back on home territory. he is dealing with themes he's dealt with since the beginning of his career. there's a couple of scenes in which we see ethan hawke writing his diary, he has a glass of whiskey on one side and he's writing and he's very, very tormented. this apparently is how schrader himself used to write. the look of the film is very sparse, it reminds you to some extent of dry, of something like pawlikowski's ida. i know that schrader has spoken to that director about making that film. it looks heartfelt, it looks passionate, it has none of the nonsense of dominion: prequel to the exorcist, which was theoretically a theological work, but which was absolute hooey. it really feels sincere, it's dealing with important issues, it's got a great central performance. it's schrader back on form. i think it's the best thing he's done since auto focus. it's not a bunch of laughs, but it is very, very intense. it has some hallucinatory moments in it. i

twenty million euros and they want their money upfront that creates a huge debt for venues such as hawk and hi there was formerly norm burgling as well they were splitting you know nurnberg ring had odd years hockenheim even nurnberg they stopped because it was too costly and now because hockenheim was continuously losing money right now they have their best ticket sales in ten years and they will struggle to break even so they'll have to be a large outrage maybe get some help from local politicians to subsidize a venue that's the only way i can see formula one coming back to germany after this race ok cross harrington from the sports s. thank you very much for your insights and ok. just before we go a french tightrope walker has completed a trailing. one of the most iconic the landmarks in paris. crossed a court suspended. from the grand from a crane to the. march. along the way a few times. and. for those who have fears of heights after all of us with a safety net or a harness as well. has been preparing for the stunt for a year and she started walking when she was just eight years of

an epic roar echo throughout hollywood this weekend hawk watches as the marvel universe superhero black panther was finally unleashed in theaters here in the united states and around the world and the benchmark of success in a capitalistic culture is money then without a shadow of a doubt black panther is in just four days of release a smashing success by pulling in a record breaking two hundred thirty five million dollar opening weekend at the box office black panther shatter not only box office records elaan held movie industry beliefs and a racist barrier is about the amount of green a film of color can bring in especially one featuring a black superhero fighting for the safety of his powerful and technologically advanced african home country not exactly hollywood storytelling is bread and butter to say the least but for many black men women and children both here in the u.s. and around the world even before the film was released the success of black panther was about more than just being another hollywood hit and joining us to discuss black panthers true success is georgetown univer

( cheers and applause ) ethan hawke is here. but when we return, i ask the question on everyone's mind, "where the hell is melania?" where is she!? ( cheers and applause ) ( band playing ) so, we have a lot to choose from, don't even worry about it. ok. we're in this together. the trials the triumphs the inevitable and... the unexpected. it's a journey and petsmart is with you every step of the way. ...most people. but on the inside, i feel chronic, widespread pain. fibromyalgia may be invisible to others, but my pain is real. fibromyalgia is thought to be caused by overactive nerves. lyrica is believed to calm these nerves. i'm glad my doctor prescribed lyrica. for some, lyrica delivers effective relief from moderate to even severe fibromyalgia pain, and improves function. lyrica may cause serious allergic reactions, suicidal thoughts or actions. tell your doctor right away if you have these, new or worse depression, unusual changes in mood or behavior, swelling, trouble breathing, rash, hives, blisters, muscle pain with fever,

it occurred despite caltrans installing a hawk beacon safety system. it's supposed to protect pedestrians and because it's new, it can be confusing. >> people didn't get it, what am i supposed to do? it's flashing yellow. is it flashing red? >> reporter: the supervisor says people need to understand how it works. another supervisor, katy tang, posted on her facebook page she wants pedestrians and drivers to become more familiar with the hawk beacon. the pedestrian activates the button that someone wants to walk and then it starts flashing and the signal turns solid ride. drivers must stop. while most did, a few impatient ones drove off while it was red. and we saw some, the children in this case, crossing without using the hawk system. once they are crossing, it goes to flashing red meaning they can proceed with caution. drivers didn't know what to do. because it's technically state highway 35, it's maintained by caltrans. the agency says the hawk crossing system works. >> they've actually been very effective. they're new so we're trying to get the wor

welcome aboard watching the hawks i am tyrrel ventura and i'm tabitha lalas. tell me please what possible justification could be f.b.i. have for this. sharing both sides drumming up terror plots that don't really really really exist so they can can keep getting the huge budget that they get every year to fight terror besides that one yeah because they want to get that one out about it ok so i wonder if they were meant to the public ok yes or with their magical just because well stephen anthony special agent in charge of the f.b.i. has cleveland field office praised in the fed the investigation telling the media quote law enforcement cannot sit back and wait for mr preston committed violent attack we don't have the luxury of hoping an individual decides not to harm someone or get others to act oh wait so when domestic violence situations happen in which someone says hey i'm afraid this person is going to kill me because they told me they're going to kill me or they're going to hurt me but they can't do anything until the person does something wrong. but in this

and this is why we must always be watching the hawks. to wonder what. it looks like. it's what. the bottom. like you but i got. this. welcome i'm on the watch of the harks i am i wrote them and i'm top of the law and let's just say it's out of the good i think it's jonathan turley the george washington university law professor saying that you're right so go at thirty thousand feet i feel like maybe he hasn't traveled lately yeah because you don't have free speech. you don't have freedom of movement you're not allowed to ask questions no father was not allowed to mouth was bigger than this right side small time you know talking now moving and now apparently you know coughing or sneezing know all the listening brightening we. can track of whether or not you shaved or not in between flights they keep track of whether or not you do you grip your luggage too tight i mean it's really ridiculous at the end of the day and this is affecting a lot of people now they haven't gotten a full list of like how many they know that it's you know quite a few potentially and it's all over the count

war over a solution maybe it's time for the united states to start looking outward for help so today hawk watch as we take you on a journey to sydney australia to talk with their experts their gun owners and their citizens to discover what has and has not worked and australia has offered to never again be faced with the tragedy and heartbreak that occurs when a monster walks into a public place with a gun in his hand and violence in our hearts now let's start watching the hawks here in the land of oz. a little low. her. i mean there's nothing like the united states american cities parts of american cities are not safe. straight in cities generally safe very safe. but still there are. there are guns but particularly following there was one very infamous massacre at port arthur in tasmania. that really had a shocking effect on the country and it was a conservative government howard government actually reinforce the gun laws following that massacre. we've just had the the killing of seven people in western australia apparently suicide. a really. cold blooded killing that to me seemed almost

but you say that you are a hawk. you know, when putin annexed crimea and with the overthrower attempted in ukraine, obama didn't do anything. president trump is. we are sending billions to ukraine with arms and munitions. >> i worked in ukraine and acutely aware of what putin did. it was outrageous. and what obama did was outrageous. i approach this as a patriot, not a partisan. we need to do more to stand up. and stand with the nato allies -- >> jeanine: hold on. we are killing them in syria. we are arming them in ukraine. we sanction them because of crimea. don't make like this is, he is not doing anything. >> i didn't say that. i said there is more to be done. 20% of the overall land mass of ukraine is held by the russians. whether it's crimea or eastern ukraine. putin talking about a phony referendum in ukraine. we have to say no to that and strengthen the ukrainian government and allies around the world. >> jeanine: all right. david and doug, thanks so much. coming up, alan dershowitz, sara carter and tom fifon
