A deal to cut production iran says its exempt from the agreement along with libya and venezuela. A 2 week cease fire comes into effect in yemen but the heathy say they wont stop fighting while the country is still under siege.

Automated vehicle innovation and update by consumers. The motivation here is pretty simple. If these vehicles are in fact safer, and i think we all think they will be, that any policy that results in unnecessary costs or delay will result in additional property damage, injury and death. So death by regulation is really something to be concerned about. And i know for a fact that there are people within the federal policy making world, are cognizant of this fact. So what i think nhtsa should do is focus on the federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards that may innovate techno lodge innovation in our automated world. An example was this petition from tesla motors to nhtsa regarding fmbss 11, and they were seeking to comply with the mirror rules with cameras, rather than using mirrors. Even if tesla were to replace all mirrors viewing functions with cameras, they would still be required to install mirrors. I think this is an early example. They just want to have the option to comply with mirr

So what happens i know the magistrate judge or the judge below here said that it was preposterous to think that this prisoner could hide anything in his half inch beard. Assuming that his half inch beard was not thickly grown, but some are, and some you cant see the skin. Should that half inch issue be applied to that prisoner . Wouldnt it be a different set of facts in that case to consider . Well, a state might be able to show thats a different set of facts. You know, but the question is not just is it conceivably imaginable that some prisoner somewhere could hide something in a half inch beard. But could he hide something there that he couldnt much more easily and more securely hide in the hair on top of his head, in his shoe, in the lining of his clothes . For all half inch beards, right . Yes. We have to assume all half inch beards are okay if god tells you to grow them, right . Well, you know, i think thats right, and again subject to somebody producing evidence that were wrong a
I mean, really. [applause] there are serious issues facing our state. Funding education appropriately, protecting our environment, making sure we have ethical and honest leaders. If hes going to give it to me, m going to take it. This is not a platform for one candidate. We are hoping Governor Scott will join us on the stage but i am told he will.

Have you ever seen anything like this . I havent. It seems remarkable over a trivial issue. No matter which side you are n.

Ladies and gentlemen, that has to be the most unique beginning to any debate, not only in florida but anywhere in the country. Let us start. Cspans 2014 coverage include more than 100 debates for the control of congress. Stay on touch and on top of
