in coal areas in the interior. in addition, of course, these power lines aren't just going to take coal power. not just going to be coal wire. it's also going to be wind and in the south, the lines in the south, hidropower by wire as well. but what it will do is reduce demand in the coastal areas. that's important because that's where the imported coal goes to. it doesn't go to the interior. it goes to the coast. we think the impact of these developments on global coal demand, on global coal trade will be even more significant. another country where this is important, where import dependency is a big issue, is india. and this slide is to show you how coal production increase has been reducing import dependency. the black bars here show the contribution from investing in renewables in reducing coal use in india, which we have assumed here comes from imported coal. but there's a second and more important factor, which i think you can see there in the light bars. and these second sets are the production increases we'r

you don't see that in iran today, in part because there is today, in part because there is fear that this would fracture the military but also they don't want to set in train this kind of snowballing effect of opposition against the regime. they prefer face-to-face melees involving truncheons, there were chains involved. that would kow the people who are left down hearted. who wants to deal with face-to-face violence? it is very intimidating and has a cowing effect on the opposition. they prefer to identify leaders of the opposition and pull them away, put them under house arrest, induce confessions that they are working with foreign intelligence services and thereby demoralize the opposition. as we saw in 2009, a lot of counterprotesters were brought in, subject to all kind of mistreatment, and then they were released to go home to speak of counterprotesters were brought what they went through under tension, extremely humiliating and had a dramatic psychological impact in terms of demoralizing the opposition. undermining the morale of the opposition is key to how the iranians do it.

in the sense there have been three stage in tunisia after what we call the revolution in 2011. first it was between 2011 and 2013. there was the growth of ansar shariha. it was a movement that attempt to unify groups, jihadi groups. with a project of institutionalization and nationalization of the jihadist movement in tunisia. it has failed. in 2013 there was first measures of repressions. there is the growth of jihadist attack by isis and al qaeda. it was the moment when jihadism in tunisia was very popular in urban area and all that stuff. in 2016 after the attack in the south of tunisia, libya, tunisia border, we enter post isis period. new regional uncertainties. i think that situation in the gulf country that we can see in the form of jihadism, we'll see that in upcoming years, maybe five or six years. i speak a little about that. for the moment in tunisia we have to step back a little bit. there are according to security forces like 250 armed jihadists, that's all. they are in the mountains. you know, small mountains at the algerian border, in jahe jahem shaambi. there ar

in allentown, 28 in reading, 27 in lancaster. 29 in millville.se numbers are alible -- all below freezing. that first wave of precipitation coming in is very light but it is encountering conditions below freezing at the surface so if you're driving around or walking around on something that hasn't been pretreated do be careful out there. snowflakes on the windshield can mean slick spots on the roads. overall, though, the main bulk of snow will probably hold off until either late in the afternoon or this evening as it tries to come in from the west and begins to get a little bit more energy from a low that's going to be forming down off avenue cape hatteras. we see the snow building in overnight into 7 o'clock wednesday morning. it's not going to be a super heavy snow but it does look like it could be enough to make roads slick and gets out of here pretty quickly during the late morning hours and so timing-wise, light snow this morning with some snow showers here or there in the northern and western suburbs. that's really round one and it shouldn'

in seoul. people may welcome a free ride but in terms of public reaction to this move by the soul city government there's quite a bit of cynicism about whether it will really work first of all souls' public transportation is already quite affordable it costs an average of about a dollar per ride and also people are blaming their pollution problems mostly on china. the main cause of the fine dust issue comes from china so i don't think that's effective the issue should be fixed in china first. if public transportation is free when we have high levels of fine dust fear people will drive and it will help lessen the pollution. coming from china but if we can do something about it like having fewer cars it will help china is taking steps to curb pollution and actually the air quality here in south korea this winter has been a little bit better than it had been in previous years last year a joint study between a korean research institute and the u.s. space agency nasa found that between may and june

in mississippi, the estimate for black voter turnout was 29%, 2% in 1892, 0% in 1895. disfranchisement had calamitous consequences for southern blacks. when african-americans could not vote, neither could they hold office. no blacks sat in the mississippi legislature after 1895. there had been a peak of 64 blacks in the mississippi in 1873.re in south carolina's lower house, which had a black majority during reconstruction, a single black representation remained in 1896. the last black southern congressman until the 1970's relinquished his seat in 1901. even more importantly, disenfranchisement meant that almost no blacks held local offices. sheriffs, justices of the peace, county commissioners and school board officials, those were the most important local actors in the early 19th century. -- late 19th century. the preferred method of southern whites to deny constitutional rights to blacks were the broad discretion of local officials who would then administer that discrimination in a discretionary way. this disfranchisement was essential to that strategy. it had to be

she was living in the household of her mother-in-law. her mother-in-law they didn't like each other very much. there became a power struggle. merged within the household over who was in control. it's a one woman's property. but her daughter-in-law is living there she's married to the man who's running the farm. he doesn't own it. that was sort of a problem. it was a classic sort of mother-in-law daughter relationship. where they don't get along. what was intriguing about it is that the enslaved women understood this. fully well. and they tried to manipulate it in in way they could. they would tell stories about one woman to the other woman. and go to one woman trying to ask for things and go to the other woman if they couldn't get them. this went on for years. so that's an example i think that a good example of how enslaved people tried to work with within the very bad hand they had been dealt. basically. and tried to influence the circumstances in ways that might not have been altered their life dramatically but they felt like at least

it is in gender in some difficult discussions. about what they are earning. it seems to me, from the debate we have had in this company, that the only way to really get around it is to put on public record what everybody is earning? yes, absolutely. we need transparency. while the first steps to guarantee equal pay to have waged transparency. we have had waged transparency. we have had waged transparency for years and it was not enough. as a society, we have decided that we already have some ernie regulations that regulate workplaces. workplaces already have had to fulfil regulations on safety. we need to produce products that are qualified as safe. we decided gender equality as important as well, so we should regulate our workplaces to make sure that men and women are being paid equally. in the end, it benefits all of us, notjust women. that is an interesting question. how do you keep men on board? one of the issues we have had in the bbc is that when there is a pay discrepancy, the corporation has to save money, and many compani

fight taliban in their areas pushing back taleban from the areas that they control in the south in the east and now also in the north so again it's a real shifting of tactics military tactics as spider strategic strategy though is a mix of tactics and politics and politics always is supposed to lead strategy it's the other way around it's the tactics that's leading the strategy there is nothing new it is a military strategy and that's what the generals which now control the of the u.s. of gun policy is more and more controlled by the military and the generals which are running it there is hardly any civilian oversight of this policy now so there is in the end the generals in the military only understand military and kind of take strategy then that's what we're seeing rolled out there is not legitimate any success i mean let's talk a little bit about the different excited of this at least then though in the trumpet mistress who is seen applying more pressure on pakistan do you do you think that might produce a different result. so we've all you know you have seen just spoken about a str

in view of that we need to invest massively in education.in africa in 2015 there were more than 101 million children who were not going to school, 53 million girls. next week i will be with a president to try to develop a partnership for education. it is important to an have all the government here agree on that. we do invest one euro in the education of girls, otherwise you are investing for the short term. if you are going to open a mine or some sort of transport and infrastructure, fantastic. sometimes you will get state aid and there's a lot of financing to help you achieve what you want, but also do something which will stabilize the country now, and so i think that there must be investment in education. e must be investment in education. there has to be a public-private partnership here. i think this is absolutely fundamental, and i think investment and development having a more ambitious strategy than we have today is indispensable if we want to avoid this fragmentation. the second duty is the duty to share values. sharing of values i

in hate. and so they are saying, "love or perish." this is why erich fromm can write a book entitled the art of loving, arguing that love is the supreme unifying force of life. and so it is wonderful to have a method of struggle where it is possible to stand up against segregation, to stand up against colonialism with all of your might, and yet not hate the perpetrators of t these unjusust systems. and i i believe firmly that it is throughgh this kind of powerful nonviolent action, this kind of love that organizes itself into mass action, that we will be able too transform the jangling disiscors of our nation and the world into a beautiful symphony of brotherhood. certainly this is the great challenge facing us. now, i think that nonviolence can work not only in the situation that we find in our country, not only with the magnificent example that we have in india, expressed through the marvelous work of mohandas k. gandhi, but i think it can work in ways and in circumstances thatat we haven'n'

>> saddam in 1970 in iraq. what i tried to say is that this is all basically an argument, we give kurds to this p aand to th. but the fact that i thought interesting millions of people kurdish party and tens of thousands of people that kurdish of turkey who basically join the insurgence to kill turkish soldiers. so basically obviously from these people's perspective kurdish policy has not been satisfactory. and another thing for the sikh, i actually did a study about scholar for going back 1980 and for governors going back until 1950 tan look at the actual numbers. talk about thousands of ministers. well, there is it real no increase in the number of kurdish origin ministers in there. it is basically very similar to what was the case in 1990s, for example. so you look at the numbers and don't see a huge increase. and last point is, yes, obviously the akp government has lots of kurds initiatives with some real gains. but look what happened in the last two years many of the gains are lost. now people can't speak
