about freeing the hands for tools. that becomes somewhat problematic although it is an interesting idea worth visiting the problematic is the timing we have evidence for bi-pedalism may be 7 million years old but we don't have evidence of stone tools to three.3 million years is the oldest reported evidence for stone tools. then wild ideas about displaying genitalia that showing off your body. the ideas are a little more reasonable having to do with food sharing if you can free the hands to make weapons or tools and gather food than there is an idea that has been promoted the females gather food and share with others and then to flex that and argue the males were collecting the food and sharing it with potential mates. an idea that has may be a little more lasting powers but moving on to legs yes we are slow but we are energetically very efficient one of the best ways to explain this is the ideas of an order to lose 1 pound of weight you have to walk about 70 miles because we're too good at it we are to energetically ef

so for jews of color, we don't push them so far away from jewish life that they can't access the tools of spiritual growth spiritual nourishment i had conversation where resisting happened with a colleague. she was unaware of the situation that happened, and i said to myself i'm going to make sure to talk with her before yom kippur, so that she had an opportunity to reflect on this and have an opportunity to come back into a relation ship on this racism that happen. i said if it had not been for the tool of reflecting and preparing for yom kippur, i wouldn't have been able to come back to you and have this conversation. and it occurred to me how important it was for me to be in a relationship with my spiritual path went spiritual tools to stay in relationship to navigate a moment that was awkward and clunky and felt not great around racism and to help both of us grow because we are in community together. as we could to be in community, access to. likely is that when we have hard times we have the tools to grow, or grieve, reflect, and what does it mean in the u.s. context that is quite

the tools that were used, texting tools, emailing members of congress. zoom meetings. all of those things that took place that helps get registration over the goal line. in my opinion, a lot of the trust and credibility for all of the success that happens were years in the making when you had advocates, lobbyists meeting with members of congress face-to-face coming to d.c., going to their offices. having conversations, i think a lot of that trust and credibility was established when the digital tools really helped amplified those messages and concerns during the pandemic. it was able to coalesce. host: if you have questions about how lobbying works, now is a great time to call in. democrats 202-748-8000, republicans 202-748-8001, independent 202-748-8002, having this conversation with dan ekstein into the top of the hour. when it comes to lobbying on capitol hill in washington dc, here are some numbers courtesy of open secrets. 2015, that number was at 3.2 billion. about the same. it was less than 2005, 2 .4 billion. you are talking about the shift that zoom and textin

once we came to that realization that these are 2 tools and the trick is to apply the right tool to the right problem the book all came together into some nice uniform flow . but you're correct, what we end up with his government is the tool we use for coercion and people will say government is not coercion, government is what we do together . cooperation is what we do together. coercion, the government is what i do to you and you do to me. and anyone who has any doubt about that just ask yourself what would happen if you stopped doing what the government told you. i think a simplecase like a parking ticket, i get a parking ticket, what if i don't pay it . what if i don't pay that, i guess what if i ignore that, the gentleman with and thoughts and guns show up to drive me before the judge so what happens if i resist them western mark now we have force and at the end of every edict the government makes is this threat of violence. that threat of violence is appropriate in certain limited circumstances. a problem with come to is that we have come to use coercion almost as a default mechani

we have diplomatic tools. ready we have gunam and tools, we have the ability to work through international institutions. we have the ability to work with alliances of like. ready minded countries there on the ground, and i think we should do all of those things as any other internationally engaged power. would. i do think, you know, one of the things that happened in the course of the past 20 years is we learned the cost of mistakes, of, of the kind that we may, whether that's unilateralism or, or. ready nation building, as i indicated earlier, american exceptionalism need and i was quite striking earlier in this year when secretary of state blinking gave his kind of 1st address the secretary of state. and he talked about in america that was kind of post american exceptionalism. he talked about in america that was more humble, that was more willing to engage through international mechanisms that was more willing to listen. that was more willing to approach other countries as peers. and i think, you know, if th

military power must be our tool of last resort. not our first. and should not be used as an answer to every problem we see around the world. indeed, today, many of our greatest concerns cannot be solved or even addressed through the force of arms. arms and bullets cannot defend against covid-19 or its future variants. to fight this pandemic we need a collective act of science and political will. we need to act now to get shots in arms as fast as possible and expand access to oxygen, test, treatments to save lives around the world. and for the future, we need to create a new mechanism to finance global health security. that builds on our existing development assistance and global health - and a global health threat council. that is armed with the tools we need to monitor and identify emerging pandemics so that we can take immediate action. already the united states has put more than $15 billion toward global covid response, the global covid-19 individual response. we have shipped more than 160 million doses of covid-19 vaccine to other countries.

these are tools of contention. how do you try to convince more and more people that something is afoot that they should not accept. so that's the beginning. now, there's all these other traditional tools available, too. sds, the student democratic society, many of leaders, many of the chapters around the country, already suspicious, already raising questions about vietnam, but this is not their main issue. remember, we talked before that sds at this point was involved with that attempt to go into neighborhoods of poor people, white and black, organize them, and try to create some kind of economic justice movement in the united states, that was sort of the focus of sds at this point. nonetheless, they're watch what's going on, in michigan and berkeley and other places, and they say we got to do something about this vietnam thing, i know it's not our main concern, we are really focused on issues of racial justice, economic justice, but let's do something. so what do you do if you want to kind of do something on the c

another tool, and a different tool than the three we have talked b. here is this process that doesn't have a corollary than the three we have talked about in the process, and another draft and what should you in some ways protest this system. as early as 1966, a few of the radicals who were invested in the process publicly declare their unwillingness to serve and that guy like dave dillinger who said, i won't serve in any war, but this war based on what i know by 1966, i won't serve, and they did this literal catchy literal move, and you don't do this anymore and you have to register for the draft, but you used to have to carry a card, literally a draft card saying your status. as a young man you were required by law to carry it everywhere you went. so these guys took this card and they burned it. i will not serve. now, this is symbolic, right? it is like they have a copy of your card somewhere in washington. it is not like it magically goes away, whoa, cool. but it is a symbol. and so, congress passes a law, and son, you can't burn the draft card, be

democracy remains the best tool we have to unleash our whole human potential. my fellow leaders, this is a moment where we must prove ourselves the equals of those who come before us with vision and values and determine faith in our collective future to build our united nations. broke the cycle of war and destruction . lay the foundations for more than seven decades of relative peace and growing global prosperity. now we must again come together to affirm the inherent humanity to that unites us is much greater than the outward divisions or disagreements. we must choose to do more than we think we can do alone . as we accomplish what we must together. and in this pandemic making sure we're prepared for the next one . staving off climactic climate change and increasing our resilience to the impacts we already are seeing. ensuring the future technologies are a vital tool to solving human challenges and empowering potential, not a source of greater strife and oppression. these are the challenges that will determine what the world looks like for our children and gra

their macro prudential tools, prudential tools, situations where those asset price valuations may be looking stretched in combination with some other vulnerabilities. that's a good environment to think about turning on the countercyclical buffer which i tend to favor. but monetary policy really is not seen as an effective tool in that regard. that's why it's so important that we are really active in using our macro prudential and prudential tools. elaine: thank you. central bank digital currencies are a big topic. effectively developing theirs. the e.u. is formally ex-employing a digital euro. can you tell us where the federal reserve stands in terms of considering a digital u.s. dollar and what your thoughts are on a digital dollar? ms. brainard: so it's a really big topic. it's become much more kind of sail yant in recent -- salient in recent months because during the pandemic there was a continued acceleration of the move to contactless digital payment. so that becomes more and more the path of the future is fully digital payments. it's also the case that in the pandemic we saw ho

in the tool box and that hate is unacceptable. period. end of story. >> reporter: [inaudible] >> yes, they did. >> reporter: [inaudible] >> no it does not. >> reporter: [inaudible] >> yeah. i'm happy to respond to that. san francisco is a major city, it's a city that has challenges of a major city and what we have tried to do is to put policies in place to combat those challenges. that when they see the amazing golden gate bridge and they see this beautiful home and this library you feel good when you walk through the door. there's a lot of beauty, but within that beauty, there's a lot of diversity and here in san francisco, what we do is we talk about that diversity as a strength of our city. how amazing it is that you could be in visitation valley and then you can just go right over the hill and be in the bayview hunter's point. you can go to chinatown. you can go to little italy. all these different neighborhoods and have a completely different experience. so i think that san francisco we should be celebrating and highlighting

when we look at that tools that are currently at our disposal to have an array of tools with acceleratedpproval that allow us to make that determination a benefit risk to approve a drug before to complete those trials. where the drugs are approved. >> and there is a situation that and those patient experiences that we have had. and i yield back. >> the gentlewoman yields back. the gentlewoman from texas is recognized. >> we don't have nearly enough hearings involving it's tough to get calls answered from the agency. so ask me a question and i noticed that my department but people just have to know so why are we still left guessing here? >> and i have a call into cdc for several weeks and then we get no response. and i was on the subcommittee it was a novel approach to that type of legislation and it was understood at the start it could take more than one congress we had hearings and briefings and personally attended 15 different fields hearings around the country hearing from people. and in the alzheimer's stakes it has been intriguing for several years it was controversial. and that is

that might have involved learning how to make stone tools. but it also is a story of cultural buffering and cultural buffering. how do you survive on a landscape like that, how do you avoid being just picked off all the time is that you look out for each other and have each other's backs. so i think that our sociology is built into the locomotion simply it isn't going to be an evolutionary success unless it happens into something that is either superfast like an ostrich or is super social and even compassionate and empathetic like we are. >> i thought that was a really fascinating point that you made in the book. >> linking to violent behavior and to now you make the argument that it could never work if our ancestors didn't have the capacity for empathy and cooperation. >> i think so. i think that idea of uprightness not just for tools but for weapons is part of the popular culture. we've all seen 2001 space odyssey. the beginning with the yielding of the weapons and that has itss intellectual roots back to raymond dart who discovered the fir

and so this becomes a tool in the tool box of suppression. but the targeting also reflects this fear of subversion and the conflation of subversion and foreigners at the same time. were they successful? this is not a story about numbers and so when i conclude in the book is that we don't have a ton of people who were in fact excluded or deported. it is really a story about fear and the threat of exclusion to deportation. and what this means. so there are a lot of people who may give up on the process or choose not to give a visit to the united states, or take that position at the university, take that meeting, because of a fear of investigation or delays in obtaining a visa. or not wanting to enter on a conditional visa. there are those who never left the united states under the threat of the naturalization due to fear of the naturalization or deportation. and so they self censor. those who felt persecuted under these laws. and so what you find is that ... those who face impressions, americans and non citizens, in the united states felt that

those are really the same tools. where we are experiencing some limitations and some challenges is in the fact that we don't have as good an understanding of the biology, the genetic underpinnings, the biomarkers in many neurodegenerative diseases. and those are the elements that have allowed us to fully deploy the expedited regulatory pathways that we have available, such as accelerated approval, such as breakthrough therapy and so on. in therapeutic care such as oncology where we have made tremendous gains over the past 20 years. so as the understanding of the biology improves, we are doing everything that we can to work collaboratively and proactively with a person battling als and other degenerative diseases, to advance their clinical trials and to understand the data that we obtained through clinical trials which is sometimes is complex and requires working very closely with the developers. >> time has expired. >> i would just like to make a remark, and that is that, even though you don't have the biomarkers, yo

and how to use that tool. for an administration like george w. bush or barack obama or donald trump or now joe biden to decide the political decision to get involved in afghanistan or to stay there a while or withdraw, these were policy decisions. what underlies that policy decision is an assumption of conditions in the world and whether the tools you have, u.n. dispatches and security council, stamens from the white house, -- statements from the white house or military power, how useful they are. it is hard to wage war by committee, it never works well. in article two of the constitution, the first paragraph -- well, second one -- talks about the role of commander-in-chief, given to the president to be that person to whom the nation looks for using the military tool to secure u.s. national interests. later in article one, congress is supposed to provide for these tools, and army and navy, now a space force and cyber command and those sorts of things. when we have a situation life afghanistan and we have the s

and how you use that tool. . so, for an administration like george w. bush or barack obama or donald trump or now joe biden, to decide the political decision to get involved in afghanistan, or to stay there for a while, or to withdraw, these were policy decisions. and what underlies that policy decision is an assumption of conditions in the world and whether the tools you have, you know, u.n. dispatch, the security council, or statements from the white house, or military power, how useful are all those in a real world setting. so, you know, the topic of this thing was why a president? and it's very hard one to wage war by committee, and so in the article two right of the constitution, the very first paragraph, right. well, the second one, talks about this role of commander-in-chief. it's given to the president to be the person to whom the nation looks for using the military tools to secure u.s. national interests and then later on in article one, congress is supposed to provide for these tools, you know, an army,

>> they can operate stronger when you have the enforcement tools and mechanisms with the packers andtockyards. this would still be within ams, it would just be a missionary within ams. that isn't the issue. the issue is what tools do we have if there is an unfair practice taking place or a discriminatory practice or if the poultry producers are not being treated fairly. right now, we are strengthening those tools so we can call out dog behavior. -- call out data behavior. -- bad haver. reporter: are you and the president comfortable with the enforcement arm of these agencies? secondly this may preemptively cause companies to lower prices? have you seen any tangible results tied to that? >> on the first question, the answer is yes and the president's executive order directed the creation of a competition counsel so that we can get the appropriate federal agencies both the cabinet agencies and the independent agencies together to make sure that we are all working as effectively as possible toward the goal of that executive order. on friday, we will be convening with attorney general ga

but exceeding those standards and it should be a tool that automates fairness, not something that we were still cleaning out standards and the real promise of ai in the space, eventually produce greater fairness and equity in ways that we may not have contemplated ourselves. but we want to make sure that the biases are not repeated in the ai machine learning. i'm excited to have this conversation to see how we can make ai to underpin the best version of himself and how to do design all good moran think it volumes of transparency that will be reflected in our fair lending laws and thank you all again for being part of this important discussion. chairwoman will now recognize the ranking member for an opening statement. >> thank you and first of all i want to say how pleased i am to take up the role the ranking member. [inaudible]. and i look forward to continuing to work together and i also to think ranking member mchenry and thank you for putting his trust in me to lead on this platform and tremendous mentor to me and policies that promote and expand the use of innovative technologies

democracy remains the best tool we have to unleash our full human potential. my fellow leaders, this is a moment where we must prove ourselves the equals of those who come before us, who had vision and values and determined faith in our collective future built our united nations, broke the cycle of war and destruction, and laid the foundations for more than seven decades of relative peace and growing global prosperity. now we must again come together to affirm the inherent humanity that unites us is much greater than any outward divisions or disagreements. we must choose to do more than we think we can do alone so that we accomplish what we must together. a ending this pandemic and making sure we're better prepared for the next one. staiching off climatic climate change and increasing our resilience to the impacts we're already seeing. ensuring a future where technologies are a vital tool to solving human challenges and empowering human potential, not a source of greater strife and repression. these are the challenges that we will determine what the world look

military power us to be our tool of last resort, not our first.t should not be used as an answer to every problem we see around the world. indeed, today, many of our greatest concerns cannot be solved or even addressed through the force of arms. bombs and bullets cannot defend against covid-19 or its future variants. to fight this pandemic, we need a collective act of science and political will. we need to ask now to get shots in arms as fast as possible and expand access to oxygen, test, treatments, -- treatments, and vaccines around the world. we need a global health threat council armed with the tools we need to monitor and identify emerging pandemics so that we can take immediate action. already, the united states has put more than $15 billion toward global covid response. we have shipped more than 160 million doses of covid-19 vaccine to other countries. this includes 130 million doses from our own supply, and the first tranches of 500 million doses that we purchased through covax. planes carrying vaccines from the united dates have already l

the department validated the accuracy of that tool in 2016 and plans to procure a new tool by the end proposed extension.we recommend reducing the not to exceed amount in this resolution to $300,000 to reflect actual and projected expenditures and recommend approvalof the amended resolution . happy to answer any questions . >> chair: great, supervisor safai. >> thank you chair and thank you for miss martinez stating on the record. my office has been in touch with yours. our concern you know, we will be supportive of this amendment today but the issue is that compass, their risk assessment algorithm has always remained confidential andsecretive . i understand you all are planning on putting out a new process request for proposal to fund a new operator. will having a publicly transparent algorithm be included in the notice of funding or the notice for a contract of services in this area? >> thank you supervisor. i think when we are in the process of developing our procurement strategy and we will definitely take into consideration your concern about a publicly available algorithm. but i

that a one to give the power tool to public as a whole, right? but they're willing to use the police as a political tool, promises a police reform have been made repeatedly over the years. there's now a draft reform bill in parliament waiting for a 2nd reading. but the question many in the opposition are asking, does the ruling party have the political will to push it forward? got hyler al jazeera, bangkok, nigerian soldiers are deploying in the state of bordeaux following a deadly iso affiliate attack. at least $800.00 soldiers were killed in an ambush on the convoy. and look at some wooden se area has been at the heart of bloody 12. your conflict kills 40000 people, displaced 2000000 and at least 9 civilians have been mistaken. the killed in a 9 cheery and military air strike in your way states 23 others, including children, were injured in the village of warry, therefore, initially denies involvements, but since taken responsibility. a tamara family has been given a temporary reprieve and their bid to seek asylum in australia after the immigra

i'm not convinced that it's going to be oh tool. so our, you know, but we're us armchair quarterback, sitting around in my office or thinking, you know, is there going to be an orange wave to nuts? and what would that look like? is that even possible for the neither so far behind all the time? could they form government or what if you've just got such an even, you know, closer split between all these parties. how well they work together. right. yeah. i think we're heading to a seriously divided pearlman, and the reason is because you're seeing a lot of intense emotions across the country. depending where you are in canada, you have very, very strong feelings about things that the leaders have been unable to address constructively or persuasively during the short campaign. it's only been $36.00 days. you know, melissa started up. we haven't talked about reconciliation in a year when we discovered so many bodies of indigenous children in residential schools across the country. we haven't talked seriously about climate crisis because t

so definitely the tool that to see of the tool or that they, that i mean the, the main issue for discussion of the start of international engagement cobble will indeed be assistance. i will 1st of all be humanitarian assistance, but it will not be easy to get agreement on the continuation of the flows of humanitarian assistance. or we know that from the experience of last time around it, i got i was part of the, the you ends discussions with the taliban to try to go see a protocols. and the last time around it was difficult. jennifer, you've written extensively on the politics of age and what that means would between different countries and the social community here, it seems to me that what michael is suggesting is that yes, there will be a negotiation going on. but you've got 2 parties that have very different negotiating positions, adding to that there is a massive amounts of donor fatigue when it comes to giving money to the tolerable. there are a number of countries i've already said, look, we just know, let's not do this. let's don't go down that puff what's, what's next could, can th
