Fraction of a second. As the seat comes out and hits the wind blast, it begins to decelerate. If you wait just a fraction of a second before you put that main chute out, the seat has decelerated enough so when the force of the parachute comes out isnt as severe. To get to that solution, we are putting a switch on the side of the ejection seat, so when the pilot climbs up into the cockpit, can set that at heavyweight or lightweight. There are a number of ways we could have solved that problem. We could have put an automatic sensing system into the seat, much like when you sit in your car on the passengers side and the seat knows youre there and the air bag gets energized. We also could have put a switch on the seat that would have had the maintainers put it in the heavier or lightweight position. We went back to the war fighters and said, what solution do you want . We can solve this problem in a number of ways. They said we want the pilot to be responsible for moving that switch. We wa ....

Could help the internet of things really flourish. Do you think that would be the main thing then that the fcc can do is to maybe step back to offer more encouragement in many of those areas . Yes, i dont think we should be overly aggressive at this point. I believe we should allow experimentation with the internet of things. And i think thats how well see its possibilities grow. Okay.

I strongly agree with senator mccaskill, and she is verywe aware of my views because we have discussed hers and mine at length and i know that you agree that consumer complaints about this intrusive, invasive practice are very well justified. The fact that Consumers Union conservatively estimates that 350 million are lost annually to phone scams, generally a lot of them the result of robocalls and the good news is advanced technologys available and affordable to stop these very intrusive and invasive machinedriven calls and Telephone Companies ought to make locking options available right away. Even in advance of the rule, the Telephone Companies have the ability to offer that service. And so, i agree with senator mccaskill about the inadvisability of the suggestion made in the budget agreement, but more broad ....

Innocence of death and the imperative of replacing hate for something better. The middle east today, my friends, is still marred by the sounds and spectacle of violence, but it need not be. Because the region is also pulsating with life. It is the home of populations that are energetic, youthful, forwardlooking, and far more interested in plugging into the World Economy than slugging it out with historic foes. It is in them than we place our faith. It is for them, and for their horizons that we dedicate a collective efforts. And it is with them, that the United States of america is determined to turn back the destroyers and build a future that is characterized by prosperity, like peace and by dignity for all people. That is a worthy fight. Thank you all very, very much. [ applause ] coming up this afternoon at 3 30 p. M. Eastern time, a confirmation hearing for nominees to a nu ....
