as far as the violations and conditions of the building, the owner's position as far as who did the work. however i would like to give the commissioners an update. we had a long discussion of what this board would like to see at the building. on behalf of the owner, iefb working -- i have been interviewing professionals to assist us. the challenging use for us is the conditional use authorization that this board has requested. i have interviewed attorneys. i don't handle land use issues. i have interviewed attorneys and other professionals in the area and we just found someone who can take on the project and assist us with that aspect obtaining the conditional use authorization and working with the planning department. as far as the matter of this hearing and the appeal, because we have found someone to work with, i would ask that this board give us another 60 days to get the permits on file for the conditional use authorization and also in connection with that, the permits to abate the housing code violations within the building. and those have to do with installation of industrialize k

so far since the. since then we have seen in the government and the attorney general the prosecutor general and lawyers from the government is delayed the enforcement of the ruling and. we have seen some talk about the supreme court going to or. ruling. remove the attorney general from power but however we have not so far anymore. talk about the supreme court going through its own impeachment motion and let alone you know this is not something that is how it was in the constitution for the supreme court to go ahead and remove the already seen some protests the president seems to be holding on to his position any plans for the opposition to take to the streets again. yes i have no opposition on friday said that they will continue. until the government enforces the supreme court ruling which freed all of the opposition leaders that for already convicted in. trials that have been described as controversial and. not fully enduring due process by the united nations as well as international barton's is parli

well details on the ground here in moscow are a little bit sketchy so far we've heard information coming out of the kremlin and military circles in moscow detailing some of the humanitarian aid that will be provided to. the people who are taking advantage of the humanitarian corridors we've been told that they were received more meals at certain assembly points on the periphery of the city and will also be providing some type of medical assistance as soon as they arrive at those points now regarding your first question how well i should be able to enforce it you have to remember that this announcement this cease fire announcement was not made unilaterally by russia russia is of course but the sorrow assad's chief partner and she from supporter in the international community and this deal was most likely discussed with him in advance with his government in advance so they already have what's our all assad on their side. in addition to that you have to remember that this deal is actually into best interest the assad government wants to maintain pressure on rebel groups in the city at the s

it has had quite a view meeting since, but the fact is that carillion was far, far too big, had far too many particularly public sector contracts, and when we look at... notjust contracts, and when we look at... not just those directly who had dealings with carillion, but those further down the supply chain, as well. there are lessons to be learned about public procurement. whether some contact should be much smaller, so that you could have smaller, so that you could have smaller companies bidding for them. how on earth was it that carillion and other big companies that are still doing it are allowed to get away with keeping smaller suppliers, waiting perhaps for months to get paid. because, that is how carillion has so much money that it owed, because so much of the bills went back such a long time. is there any danger that some of these companies might think, we don't want to take these loans, because it might take these loans, because it might take the message that our customers, or indeed our surprise, that we might be in trouble. so, could there be an issue affecting people's confi

sheryl: the question is not if #metoo has gone too far, but if #metoo has gone far enough. it cannot be a moment in time where people raise their voice. these brave women that have raised their voices one long-standing change, change that is not just for the day or the month, but for the years and the decades, and that means we have to have the right institutional policies, and those policies have to include due process investigations. things need to be investigated and swift action needs to be taken, and importantly, we need to and the culture of complicity. ofneed to end the process looking the other way and it is not your responsibility, because it is all of our responsibility. emily: the cofounder of twitter told me that he things if there were more women on the early twitter team early on, maybe online harassment and trolling would not be such a problem. they were thinking about great things that could be done with their product, not how it might be used to send death threats. my understanding is also that when you got to facebook, you started asking questions about th

may be taking way too far with essentially the extraterritorial nature of that act well i think think there are actually two quite different things moving us corporations to a territoriality based system of taxation with regard to global trading activity is one thing. the foreign account tax compliance a whole fact corrosive snow was directed at something quite different that was directed at ensuring that u.s. says. does and who are also attacks on a citizenship basis. as were u.s. corporations pay taxes on overseas awnings and so what fat could did was ensure that u.s. citizens outside of the united states have to report all accounts that they maintain outside the united states to charis it's not just about american citizens our residents reporting on those accounts i want to understand that but it's about the making non us financial institutions essentially be responsible for implementing that reporting and turning the branches of foreign financial institutions essentially into subsidiaries of the i.r.s. don't you think that's a bridge too far now or go i agree with you i was descri

and accept the need to call for a ceasefire but only after trying every possible way to avoid it this far into the square with what is. pacemaking to go and they want to make sure that it is reflective of. russia is a staunch ally of syrian president bashar assad it's been providing military add to the syrian government. but while many have welcomed the news of a potential safe spot the people of syria continue to suffer. activists say minutes after the deal was struck government will planes bombed a student kuta yet again. well i'm joined by alan michael donald's in amman in the middle east folks and for save the children alan you are in close contact with people in eastern guta has there been any change following the security council votes so far at the moment people we've spoken to here said that it's really just an illusion. that this morning people who are looking forward to. peace will say they left the shelters where they've been hiding underground for the past week trying to escape bombing and people went to check their homes to check their relatives see people working but then pr

how far is this thus far based on what we know and why? >> you've got what we begin with, russia trying to influence the election. you've got the trump campaign at the very least welcoming that interference. we don't know if there was what counts as collusion but they welcomed it publicly. the now president on the stump invited russia to interfere in the campaign essentially and we know covertly that was also going on, there was a meeting at trump tower, et cetera, et cetera. and then we've got a coverup, we've got obstruction of justice from the president, we he admitted to and bragged about on television, that he fired of director of the fbi because of the russian investigation. if you put all that together, you just went through the list of how many indictments, guilty pleas already. it's a major, major story. >> as he was coming down the aisle to deliver the state of the union, i remember remarking i couldn't remember another president at the end of his first year with his presidency as imperilled as donald trump. as you go through the

but as far as world on our behalf. but as far as jeremy corbyn is concerned, that is one way of getting around the northern ireland question, about having a border between northern ireland and the republic of ireland, and also having frictionless trade with the european union. but it is sebastien's story. just looking at this story here, do we think that some of these rebel tories will really side with labour? the ft seems to suggest they will be. the story is whether this will mean anything. jeremy corbyn is not in power at the moment. the only way this matters is because of the parliamentary arithmetic. theresa may has a gossamer majority, so she has to do a deal with labour leaders and the dup and so on. this is so important for the future of our country. that is for one approach eu conservative, who said they would vote for their conscience over the party interest. if she was to make ita party interest. if she was to make it a confidence issue, she would play chicken with her mps, asking if they were going to vote

how far has turkey moved away from the rule of law. the big question how far is turkey moved away from the rule of law and michel i was just talking about the prospects of normalization of relations between germany and turkey gemma's to be a very prominent green politician with turkey's german roots has come out and said normalization of this point in time is absolutely not possible is he right to review. and i think it's clear to everyone here in germany that you cannot it's not pleasant chancellor merkel it but you know what she tries her best you know she is someone who never ever escalates. a to go ahead get ahead of developments she is very very cautious and of clothes it would be for her it would be completely it would be dangerous to somehow incense that adeline but i think at the same time everyone knows that he's a dictator and that you've really cannot count on what he's doing next and what add one ones is that more tourists come to come to the turkey i think that's is fine aim that. germany to. issue its own inhabitants that

that's about as far as sunlight can penetrate. light passes through the atmosphere far more easily than through the ocean water is more dense so it can absorb much more sunlight than air can. what we call light is actually a spectrum of different wavelengths of radiation which we perceive as colors. shorter wavelengths in the blue part of the spectrum are able to penetrate the water more easily than red or frequencies so as divers descend the watery surroundings appear now. only darker but also more blue. the red component of sunlight is completely filtered out close to the surface. that's why red fish already appear black just board a six metres below the waves. while yellow fish can still be made out at depths of over twenty metres. and bluefish retain their color even sixty metres down. the ocean is full of particles and floating organisms which function much like fine droplets of mist in the atmosphere. they also prevent light from reaching the seabed by reflecting and scattering it. that's why it's so dark on the seabed unles

sheryl: i think the question is not if it has gone too far, but far enough. because this can't just be a moment in time where people raise their voice. these brave women that have raised their voices want long-standing change, not just for the day or month, but for the years and decades. and that means we have to have the right institutional policies, and those policies have to include due process, investigation. things need to be investigated and swift action needs to be taken. and importantly, we need to end the culture of complicity. we need to end the process of looking the other way. it is all of our responsibility. emily: ed williams, the cofounder of twitter, told me in my book that he thinks if there were more women on the early twitter team early on, maybe online harassment and trolling wouldn't be such a problem, but they weren't thinking about this enough. they were thinking about great things that could be done with their products, not how it might be used to send death threats. my understanding is also that when you got to facebook, you started a

so as far as trump is concerned there's nothing more to do. the russians are there, we're here, it's over. >> as we know the president is not in control of this investigation and some of the allegations in the indictment date back to 2014 which was before he announced his capped daisy, which is why that tweet with the no collusion, right? >> yes. >> but you anticipate there will be more. >> there will be more. and here is why. look, for the president to say this proves no collusion, it's a totally premature statement. nowhere in that document does special counsel mueller indicate that his work is done and, in fact, it well may be that mueller is yet to address the russia/trump campaign connection given what we know it seems likely, in fact, that there is much more to come, more indictments to come. >> and so we wait. >> yeah, we wait. that's exactly what we do. we wait. we know that michael flynn and george pap dop lis are sharing all they know given their plea bargains. rick gates may well enter a plea gargen giving mueller even more insight

what we have seen thus far suggests to me an absence. in fact, i think that the indictment that you mention, anderson, of the 13 russians and the three russian companies is actually at this stage, at this stage, a contraindication because this was a huge operation, lavishly financed, organized out of st. petersburg, russia, very close to vladimir putin. it was organized by one of the oligarchs. and i think this was essentially a shadow indictment of vladimir putin, who had a huge operation with -- there's no evidence of any collusion with any american campaign. there is some unwitting participation. i think that's an important word. the unwitting participation, which again suggests to me it's a contraindication that this was some kind of conspiracy with trump tower. but we'll see. >> but in terms of building an investigation, there's no reason why robert mueller would show all his evidence -- and again, we don't know if there is or not, but would show everything at once. he seems to be methodically building a case. >> bob mueller is a to

in last august in our government is to climbing to comment on this report it so far acknowledged one mass grave containing what it calls ten terrorists almost seven hundred thousand revenge i have fled to the border to bangladesh since the man maher army launched its crackdown on the muslim minority last august army commanders say they are only targeting armed groups the bangladesh and mean more governments have agreed to voluntarily repatriate them but implementation that has been delayed in the u.n. says not enough is being done to guarantee the safety of your return scott has more from. we contacted a government spokesman about this is sociate a press video that shows these atrocities in rakhine state and he said that he had not seen nor heard of it yet and that he would get back to us that has not happened now if the track record serves as any indication we probably won't hear back or the government won't directly comment on this video footage that associate press has released there have been multiple reports from humanitarian organizations who have accused the government of queu

far right candidates call the influx of refugees out of control immigration. but italy's prime minister has told us people hatred and violence will not be able to divide them cold shoulder john al jazeera. the charity oxfam has apologized to some of that stuff members in haiti were accused of sexual misconduct three of them resigned and four sucked the u.k. based group has had a presence in haiti since a major earthquake in twenty ten the british government has criticized for lack of transparency. what i'm apologizing for is that nine oxfam staff behaved in a way that was totally unacceptable in country to our values and that then led much more responsible staff to make decisions which are now seen as being by some margin or inappropriate our job is to promote the positive values his staff don't even go there but also to be absolutely intolerant of anybody who does what we've committed in the last few months is to increase the work that we do on that behavior on that culture and to do all that we possibly can to drive out any exploitation or tolerance of it th

it's about half the time there at the berlin nala what are your favorite so far. yeah well for me i mean it's funny because it's the absolute first film i saw i love dogs which open the festival wes anderson's movie stop motion animation film and it's just a delight i mean it's just working it's fun there's a really weird sensibility what you expect from wes anderson i loved it from beginning to end i was why i get my tail for the whole thing and i think. and of all the films i've seen since none of them talked this was this is my absolute favorite film so far about how i was really looking forward to this was and is until he's one of my favorite directors in five days was anderson found out that he will not let you down. but i actually have my money on another film for the for the golden best so far and that is a most sensitive thing film this could fit in me a it's an italian film very strong female cause to female action a little girl as well and it basically tells a very complex story of motherhood and will say what it means to be a woman as a female director

finances it's hard to really put a bill on that because so far in the future we can't say at the moment we know though from past experience that of course the european union would have to transfer a considerable amount of funding but that's not the only issue here i mean there's always something you can get back from it and if you look at the investments in the past you by far the largest investor in the region the commission estimates that in the last five years ten billion euros were invested in that region so there's not only something to lose here for that you but in the long term maybe even in the mid-term something to gain. max hoffman reporting from thank you max. now here in germany under the americans conservatives and the center left social democrats are still working on forming a government and they're still far apart on several key issues leaders on both sides are pushing hard for an agreement as deadline after deadline passes. it's decision day in berlin again conservatives and social democrats arriving for day eleven of coalition talks and the day is not going to be easy h

so here's what we know so far u.s. intelligence agencies believe russia wanted to ensure the twenty sixteen presidential vote was in favor of donald trump it's alleged russian hackers attempted to undermine the rival candidate hillary clinton by providing her campaign details to wiki leaks thousands of the democratic party's internal emails were leaked several congressional committees were set up to investigate including one led by the then f.b.i. director james comey he was later sacked by mr trump fueling speculation the president was trying to interfere with the inquiry robert muller was then appointed a special counsel to find out if anyone from the trump campaign team colluded with the russians it was reported trump would also be investigated for possible obstruction of justice members of the president's inner circle have been questioned former campaign manager paul mann of ford has been charged with conspiring to defraud the united states in his dealings with ukraine two former advisors were also involved george

another event took place here with far ranging consequences. a disastrous agreement was signed here that set the world on a course towards history's most horrific war. two decades after world war one. two decades after a war that claimed sixteen million lives the leaders who met in munich chose to appease hitler's regime rather than confront it. those leaders were noble men. they thought they were fulfilling their highest responsibility to keep the peace. but the price of their action would soon become apparent the concessions to hitler only emboldened the nazi regime and facilitated its conquest of europe. rather than choosing a path that might have prevented war for the very least limited its scope and its scale. those well intentioned leaders made a wider war inevitable and far more costly. some time after the war roosevelt asked churchill i would call this war and he answered immediately without hesitation the unnecessary war he said there was never a war more easy to stop. in the wake of the munich agreement sixty million people would die

in the second of two special reports sense investigates allegations that russia and the far right have been using the technology to undermine democracy. america's two thousand and sixteen presidential campaign highlighted new threats to democracy posed by social media platforms in the internet. the u.s. congress is investigating how the russians used facebook twitter and google to wage information warfare and a special counsel is looking into whether the russians in the trump campaign actually colluded in their digital strategies. there's also growing concern that the business models and algorithms that drive social media companies are fueling extreme partisanship and opening up the floodgates to phony news but america isn't alone challenges to democracy posed by social media also surfaced last year in european elections we begin there in the second part of our investigation into why social media platforms are such powerful tools for those who want to spread propaganda and disinform ation we look into the ways automated accounts are known as bots are deployed by russians in the far rig

how far will this get hna? the pressure is still rising because they still have big numbers to make up. they arerrent quarter about $2.4 billion short of their target of what they need to pay off. in thisdebt just due quarter. overall, they have $29 billion in debt in coming quarters. a lot of pressure to sell these assets. the structure is often complicated, it takes them more time to do that. pressure is still building on them to sell off assets. kathleen: thanks to dave mccombs joining us from our tokyo bureau. the opening of south korea's winter games is just hours away. geopolitics lumen heavily, from threats of war. steve, that is quite a scene to set for us, isn't it? >> that is right. a lot of people in the olympic stadium behind me tonight for the opening ceremony are not going to be thinking about the chill from north korea. it is the chill in the weather. this is the warmest day of the year ended is cold. including layers on, three layers of goose down, and i am still freezing. can you imagine the pe

as far as, you know, if there's going

now there's a potential rule change that i think is going too far. my take next. >> earlier today on the rich i sense show he mentioned an idea that's floating around. there is talk of major league baseball managers being allowed to bat whoever they want if they're trailing in the ninth inning despite the batting order. at first i was all for this. now, i couldn't disagree more. here's why. i understand the pro argument here. if this were the nba you wouldn't leave lebron sitting on the bench with two minutes ago. you want your best players out there and this would up the excitement for viewers as well but here's the thing. it's not just a rule change. it changes the entire sport. managers would have to change our strategies players at bat with a chance to make a name for themselves would be robs of those opportunities and the guys continue wally being subbed in would likely be used as a bargaining chip to get more money. the concept is good in theory but open bandoras bock. it's like adding foyer point line in basketball. it isn't the game at that p

and that's as far as i know. and i've heard that from multiple people. >> there were other reports that he had threatened at least and kind of jokingly, that i could take all of you out. and he knew the layout of the school. he knew the evacuation drills. he was up on that third floor when he pulled the alarm. he knew the layout. he knew where people would have to go, correct? >> exactly. and the amazing thing is, because of the heroic and more or less the actions taken by the broward county schools to make it a more safe school in the past months in response to these mass shootings in schools, they've trained all of the teachers recently to lock all of the doors in case a horrifying incident like this happens, we're as safe as we can be. and i think that training saved hundreds of lives today. >> are there any school officials the or other than a security guard who are armed inside the school that you know of? >> as far as i know, there is a school resource officer that i believe is armed. but i didn't hear much

chancellor merkel agreed to a million refugees and migrants and then ninety two far right. before in the next elections i think this has been seen as a lesson for the neighboring countries of germany and particularly france where the far right is very powerful. for macro it's a political gamble he may police on the political right and far right but he risks and many on the left have supported him until now in the meantime refugees like these will continue to try and reach france in the hope of a better life natasha butler al-jazeera. venezuela's opposition says it won't put forward a candidate for april's presidential election calling the vote a trap set up by president nicolas maduro the exiled opposition leader and four years there is masses the poll will be rigged in favor of metol. we're not going to participate in the presidential elections because it would be suicide it's not an election it's a trap and it would be absurd for the democratic opposition which represents the vast majority of venezuelans who want real change in the country to a regime by the far better fr
