it came out in criminal trials that usag had a policy of literally burying reports of sexual assaultd buried 5a files on coaches accused of sexual assault within a ten year period. when you see the number of victims coming forward with larry nassar‘s investigation what you are seeing is a drop in the bucket and this in terms of a cultural problem at usag. what impact do you think it will have that simone biles has decided to talk about this? i really hope that it will draw attention again to the broader cultural problem. larry nassar is a symptom of the problem. the fact that so many of the genus have suffered horrific sexual abuse at his hands is because of the policies that usag have, creating an environment safe for predators to prey on little girls and even on their most premier athletes. when you have an organisation that has a tone of not reporting allegations of sexual abuse and that literally buries reports in a file cabinet and go so faras buries reports in a file cabinet and go so far as to defend the practice of burying these reports in under oath testimony in criminal tri

and that is precisely what you see with usag with larry and other elite coaches.awyer, and i know that we cannot accuse people who are not here to speak for themselves, but it sounds very clearly as if you expect to see other people in the dock at some point. these actually are gymnasts that have come forward. for example, there was... this came to light because a usag certified coach named william mccabe was prosecuted for sexually abusing gymnasts, and in his trial, it was revealed that usag had a file about two inches thick of reports of william and the president of usag at the time was called to give an under—oath deposition and was questioned about usag policy and the fact that they had this file on william mccabe and did not report it, and the director's response in his under oath testimony on public record was that they had the policy because they wanted to "avoid a witch—hunt", and so this is a matter of public record that has been supported by numerous victims and that usag responded to publicly and they have defended that policy. rachael denhollander tha

and, you know, it is not part of their business model to encourage overaccuse or kind of improper usage the same way it is arguably for a facebook or a twitter. it's actually part of their business model to get people to bite phone, be really happy about and it be excited about the next one that comes out. i think also you have to move away from issues of fault here you know, apple is not responsible for global warming either, but they have a great policy on climate change in the same way that if you see a kid suffering you don't say that's not my fault and move on if you're in a position to do something about it you do why do you think that the controls that they have right now aren't enough? as i acknowledged last night in the statement they will have new ones coming out. one as barry said they are not front and center and integrated into the setup of the phone. two, they are not really what the research would suggest is effective. they have very binary. it's either on on off. the research suggests limited levels of use, actually not only harmful but probably beneficial. kids use thei

in other words, a usage tax. this gets back to things that we talked about, a privatizing highways and bridges. you say this could work and this might be a solution for other states? >> well, yeah. i mean, look, i will grant that there's always a problem with government implementation. if they just handed the highways and toll roads and whatever bridges over to private enterprise, like the original turnpike system here in the u.s. was all private, i could work. the problem is rarely with the government raising enough money. the problem is that in california's original -- right now they're charging 41 cents a gallon in state tax. the problem is that all that doesn't go to fix the highways. only 57, 60% in california goes to fix the state highways. they redistribute the rest to cities and towns and other various projects that government likes to get into. so if they dedicated -- doesn't matter what they do. i like the usage tax because it's very direct. but if they said look, this is the old al gore lock box that c

and daria kuss, a psychologist specialising in internet usage at nottingham trent university. first of all, who has got most to lose out of this? i would say the audience. that is the big winner in this case. but we see that as a good thing because ultimately, the audience is what makes facebook and as a publisher, we have a huge audience so we have 62 million followers across social on different channels. and they see us as like being a friend, and as a result we will do well out of this. they will find you but you won't be quite so prominent? publishers will not be so prominent but there will still be a lot of space for publishers and publishers that do social in the right way and we are very good example of how to do social in a good way. and a variety of campaigns we can talk about. as far as advertising is concerned, you heard the contributor in guatemala talking about how that traffic was gone and that was problematic. there will be winners and losers and we have seen these algorithm changes in the past and it is just about adapting and being fleet of foot and making sur

huge challenge now to south african cities authorities are tightening restrictions on household water usage to fight an ongoing drought beginning in february residents will be limited to fifty to say that's almost half the currency. water collection is now a common sight in cape town families here have been feeling the strain of the water rationing measures because. we can't use. the water from the tap because there's no voice in it so we have to connect to sydney and have family collect water three to four times a week after three years of too little rainfall cape town faces a severe water shortage the water reservoirs of south africa's second largest city are only a third of their capacity and families like sydney's are being forced to go to extreme lengths to save water both in the world to be used for the washing machine and from the washing machine. and from game we use it for me for the system for the toilet there. my mom was always she didn't like to waste anything so she was always don't waste. so she decided no it was and she heard about the job out no we're going to save. the fami

the usage rate is low. female workers tend to quit their job after they have their first birth of their child. i learned from some studies that the keyword here is agenda in a company. what i mean is, if the company had a gender equal climate, then the usage rate of parental policy is behind. on the other hand, if the company doesn't have gender equal climate, then the usage rate of gender, no, parental policy would be low. thinking this through topics, i will talk about things that i would like to see in the future. first thing is about the environmental change and the changes in people's perspective of gender. i think education to youngsters, especially for middle school students is very important. but, education itself is too simple of an answer. i think we also need to think about needs to foster culture of responsibility, leadership and strong relationships, for example. my last point is about building a grass root communication for families. i believe that there are many people who share the same expe

who was the doctor that usag sent to keep us healthy and help us get through?ser. the doctor that is a child molester. for years, there have been concerns about larry nassar, but many survivors say they were ignored, as victims were notjust decorated 0lympians but the children of family friends and state—level gymnasts like gwen anderson. a champion athlete who competed for the state of michigan, gwen is seen here at the age of 1a. she was just 12 when she first received treatment from larry nassar. instead, he molested her time and time again. to have your name and your face and your story out for everybody to see is a scary thing. he was my safe place, he was going to protect me. and he took that and used that against all of us. for so many, this was a doctor they trusted implicitly. for the record, go to hell. tom brennan was gwen‘s coach and once a close friend of nassar‘s. did you have any idea of what he was doing? none. i had zero idea. we had the utmost trust for that man and that's where we all went wrong. all this week, young women have packed this sm

either from academic national survey perspective, is there any data or sense of usage rate over time? by that i mean is there the first couple of days huge in flux, then it wanes to election day? does it pick back up election day? and does that vary by state as states look to either expand or contract their early voting periods to try to see actually when are voters actually using it at sort of highest usage rate? >> anybody want to jump on that? >> go ahead. >> if i understand your question right, you are talking about the early voting and trends that we see from the beginning to the end? >> yes. >> we see usually you can just stop and you can see who wins and loses in nevada just because people come out and early vote. the numbers are very, very high. and one of the things that we see is it depends on if there is a weekend or during the week, you no h you know when people are coming. we have the malls and now have the community centers. but there is that trend of seeing high numbers in the beginning and not so much in the middle, but on the weekends it's really big turnout. so it ju

apple to spread awareness to parents about possible addiction and what they can do to reduce iphone usager children and to study the impact on mental health of being addicted to your phone. so in that sense, i think, for the company to respond to that, which it so far hasn‘t, i think they are in a pretty easy spot. but remember, this also comes on the back of last week and the week before that we were talking about apple being on the back foot when they had to come out and say they were slowing down iphones because of battery issues. so of course it is not good news that investors have come out and said this, but in that sense they are not really in a sticky spot. overall it has not been a good day for apple, they have also been sued by paris prosecutors over a suspected plan to throttle its products. it admitted it intentionally slows down older models of iphones over time. manufacturers are being criticised the building in the expiry of their product, so that consumers will be forced to replace them. with europe looking divided, experts say france is gaining the lead in access to china.

and what we have demonstrated is that the fears of increased usage have not come to pass. look, i actually opposed this initiative when this was voted on in the state of washington because i had concerns about that but we have now tested this and found it has not resulted in increase youthful usage and not resulted in additional crime and it's freed law enforcement to go chase rapists and killers rather than people using this in their homes. and this is not just recreational. the attorney general also rescinded the policy involving medical marijuana, people with cancer. i had dinner last night with a friend who uses this for some of her difficulties with cancer treatment. he's tried to destabilize the medical marijuana. now, we're going to move forward because he actually has not given a directive to the local attorney generals to prosecute anyone, and our local attorney general so far has said we're not changing the pattern here, we're not going to prosecute people, we're going to continue our current pattern. so this may be just more a political statement than an actual
