Policy. It was emerrill rogers not that long ago said just as much as that, that we dont have a good cyber offensive policy. We talked about it ad infinitum in classified settings for the entire ten years i was on the Intelligence Community and we could never get consensus to move to the next place on what that cyber offensive is. And by the way just as a personal note i just saw that the Administration Says theyre going to make china pay for the consequence of the opm hack. I cant wait. I cannot wait to see what the heck that thing is. And candidly im not too excited about what its going to be. We havent crossed that threshold to bring everybody in a room and try to work through this problem. I would long answer to your question, but i dont believe they have the right to go extraterritorial to protect what they perceive to be a threat at that point. Thats fantastic. Thank you, thank you so much. We can get a hand for the speakers. Thats just great. You can see how we can make many hou

How does it showing your id heres the piece who says the federal Appeals Panel rule yesterday that a strict voter identification law in texas discriminated against blacks and hispanics and violated the rights act of 1965. A decision that defines the reach of the law. The case is one of a few across the country that are being closely watched. This after a 2013 Supreme Court decision that blocked the most enforcement tool, federal oversight o
Think of me and us as a resource to help navigate that. What i brought today for the purposes of an introduction, im glad to answer any questions about our body of work but i highlights pages to two testimonies and theyre on the table over there. One was a testimony in may of 2010 before this committee, and it was based on a report that came out in july of 2009. And we were asked to look out how much progress had sba made in implementing the Small Business Disaster Response and improvement act of 2008. Its a mouthful. Ill now call it the 2008 act. Very important piece of legislation. It was a good way to look at progress sba had made from basically the problems that incurred during katrina and rita and it was also what remained to be done. The other thing we did was extensive fieldwork looking at the response of the 2008 disasters, which were of a smaller magnitude of katrina or sandy. It was the midwest floods and hurricane ike in particular where we did extensive fieldwork and we cou
Students going why are we here were supposed to talk about race this is really hard.

I do not think you have to worry as much about getting everyone in the conversation as starting the conversation, and bringing the students in an wielding these conversations out with real in and wielding these conversations out. If we think every time we meet we have to change the curriculum or redo everything, we will not make progress, but its every time we meet we have an income until idea, we try it, tested, put it back in place, students will come, start believing in the process. I think carolina conversations is one step and stay tuned i will come back next year and tell you about the rest. It is pretty important. I think almost every campus in america is probably going to be doing something more trying S

Be umbrella ready for later on today. A chance for showers and thunderstorms. Highs near 90 degrees today. As you send the kids out the door, you need the small umbrella in the tote bag for the walk home later on this afternoon.
