fbi. flying drones now pose a greater risk to aircraft than bird strikes. according to researchers working with the faa passenger planes are designed to stop a bird strike from puncturing the aluminum skin of the aircraft, but testing and computer modelling show a drone could penetrate it. the most vulnerable areas to drones, windshields and the stabilizers that keep the plane flying straight and level. the faa says they will develop strategies and rules for preventing collisions. the regional transit authority is being called a grinch. church ads were to be placed on buses. they urge worshippers to find the perfect gift. the metro transit agency refeudsing the ad because it promotes religion. advertising guidelines put in place in 2015 prohibit issue oriented advertising including political, religious and
it can go both ways. we done computer modelling at making every vote count and at princeton university the computer modelling suggests the popular vote 3 percentage points there s a one in three chance it could go wrong or go either way. think back to 2004, even though george w. bush won re-election by millions of votes. john kerry could have turned that differently. that creates both a risk to both parties and it also creates a security risk nationally for us as a nation. dr. wong, i m glad you said security risk for us nationally because i ve been thinking about something since reading your report. does the russian meddle mitigate against the change that you propose on the theory that with an electoral college system in the event of a recount, at least there s a way you can segregate the vote. no, i think it s the opposite. i think if you look at that the popular vote margin last november was over 3 million
her piece on the war over democracy over war versus math and how obama aides are trying to turn it out, what did you find? i find the tools exist. the computer modelling is sophisticated enough for whoever controls the redistricting to be extremely precise in targeting how they distribute voters. if you are a legislature that wants to do this in a way that benefits your party significantly over the other party, you can do that. then the question is will courts step in? the supreme court is hearing challenge to the wisconsin redistricting plan that we re talking about. it s the case in the popular vote and sochl these key states that democrats win not only more votes but win sometimes a majority and then they re the minority. we should say in states democrats control, they cangerr
two or three less. so the whole basis for the alarmism is not true. it s based on flawed computer modelling. that s completely wrong. and you don t vote on that. say what you will, but you have it absolutely wrong. what happened to that heat, he s cherry picking a certain model. the heat ended up in the ocean. this is not controversial in mainstream science, everybody. so let s really i encourage everyone to look at the facts. we ve got an extraordinary situation here in the united states where climate change deniers have managed to introduce the idea that some uncertainty, say 2%, plus or minus 2%, that the temperature of the ocean is somehow equivalent to plus or minus 100%. everybody, science is political. we use politics to decide where to invest our intellect and
of the agreement that pertain to the enrichment activities but actually the easier thing to hide in chief would be the military applications, so computer modelling of a nuclear explosion, some of the weapons research that is precluded by this agreement, would we really have eyes on that kind of research and development activities if it takes place at the military site? so that s a key question. i think the question really falls in three buckets the one you mentioned, which is how enforcible is this really what s detectible to iran cheating. the second is how do we push back against what iran is going to use some of this money for, which is support of hezbollah, support of hamas, interference of yemen, and most significantly at the moment what it s doing in iran to continue that civil war there. and finally, and perhaps most important of all, is there a plausible alternative? those are, i think, the three
