Tonights americas newest midsized suvs are put to the test. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety crashed seven of the newest models on the market, the results, well it may make you think twice before stepping inside. The institutes Vice President joins us with the results. Russ, great to have you on the show. Little us a tell us a little bit about the test because it is different than the government uses. This is a different kind of test. This is called a small overlap front crash test. It is done at 40 miles per hour. It replicates what happens when a vehicle may drift over the center line of the highway and just clip other vehicle, headlight to headlight or go off the road of the highway and hit a tree or a telephone poll on the drivers side. It is based on research that shows 25 of the serious injuries and deaths that occur in frondal crashes are in these small overlap impacts. They have to be very common. How often do you hit dead on the front . I think it is pretty rare. Tha
Lives of thousands of americans. This is al jazeera america, good morning, live from new york city. Im randall pinkston. The mayor of baltimore is asking for healing and promising to find the people responsible for inciting riots in the city last night. This Morning National guardsmen are on the streets trying to restore calm. Nearly 200 were arrested in that wave of violence. 15 officers were hurt. The number of fires topped 150. Public schools are closed dade and and curfew is in effect. John it looks like cleanup crews are already out this morning. Reporter randall, you are absolutely right. It is a bright sunny morning here in baltimore after the nastiness of last night, people are on the streets clearing up. And they were on the streets clearing up last night while it was all going on. But here there is a cvs which was badly burned out and looted. But people came here and took away the debris from the sidewalk so when the mayor and governor could come here and glad hand people whi
Let this lead to actually postponing your plans and the confidence has returned. I think this is certainly not the right day to discuss a future tragedy. What has to be done is to support the family members as much as possible. And all of us, together. I think i can even include the general public and when the time has come we will think about strategic considerations. It might exert a confidence on your position. Ive no reason to speculate this morning. An airplane this morning was planned to go to tel aviv. And when an airplane is called back, i think there is a good reason and there are good reasons for the captain to take it and not have the fight started. Since nobody knows the answer we could call after and ask what this all might have [indiscernible] you know something about the clue we provide you the reasons in a minute or two. When you heard what might be the region, did you inform the family members immediately . Or how have they had have they gotten to know this . Are being
Hearings, there are many experts who would contend the complexity of the geopolitics that led to the u. S. Retreat from europe created an opening for putin and the ukraine. Clearly we must closely coordinate with our european friends for the sanctions against russia to work but i think without any doubt we can all agree on one point and that is that the United States must take the lead.

It authorized the president to provide much needed military and humanitarian aid to ukraine and imposes additional sanctions against russia. This legislation was necessary in december. And it is certainly necessary today. Now, we all want a diplomatic solution. But this can only come about when at the cost of continuing to ravage ukraine is simply too high. Providing nonlethal equipment like night vision goggles is all well and good. Giving ukrainians the ability to see russians coming, but not the wea
It comes back operationally, we do tolerate failure. The first thing in the field, this is not a zero mentality. People make mistakes. Theres fog and friction and we reward innovation and i think it exists. Constitutional ly institutionally, its a little harder. But in the acquisition realm the processes are not they grind on so its not that they dont reward innovation. Its that innovation and new ideas dont naturally arise from it because theres a risk aversion. Everybody wants a piece of it, they want to add their requirement to it. Its hard to get the process right. Intellectual intellectually, you read other things, you read small wars journal, every major interesting piece that are at odds often with what the secretary and the chief are saying. Thats a great thing. And the army has this incredible ferment. Do those people stay in the army . Are they punished for . I never really sayee that. The army is a culture, and so i have no doubt we have certain cultural biases. We try to no
