Attack confesses saying he was angered by cartoons of muhammad in the satirical magazines. Welcome to the program we begin with a Major Political fight in the u. S. Over the vacant seat on the Supreme Court media reports say President Donald Trump will nominate amy barrett to fill that seat she would replace Ruth Bader Ginsburg who died last week barrett currently serves as a federal Appeals Court judge and is known for her conservative religious views trump told journalists on friday he had made up his mind but he refused to confirm the speculation and head of an official announcement on saturday. For more im joined by Irwin Collier professor at bard college in berlin irwin its really nice to have you with us. What do we know about amy coney buried in essence what effect would she have on the Supreme Court to start probably with the most important she is 48 years old which means with good health she could be around for a long time she clerked after law school with Anthony Scalia justice antonin scalia. Who was a very conservative justice one of the originalist so. Part of the school of jurisprudence in the United States that believes you have to 2nd guess what the founders and authors of the constitution would have said had they lived in 2020. If it puts a very conservative spin on what she does shes been an appeals judge since 1970 it was a very controversial hearing but strict completely on party lines she was approved before that she was a professor of law at the university of notre dame and perhaps the most interesting for the politics she is firmly in the antiabortion side of the debate and as a very conservative catholic catholicism dominates the Supreme Court she would be the 6th Catholic Justice of the Supreme Court right now that by itself doesnt tell you much because as everyone knows a religion like that goes from sotomayor all the way to judge barrett so they can see the chief justice will no longer be the swing vote in coming elections that its clearly part of the plan ed thats clearly planted if she is in fact trumps nomination how likely is she to actually get that seat i mean the republicans certainly have the numbers. Barring unforeseen. Skeletons in her closet which strikes me as unlikely given that shes already been through a pretty serious vetting. Its a done deal they knew that before trump even announced it which made it was also sort of peculiar they said we have proven we dont know who hes going to name which isnt a rather odd way of doing things so the republicans are going to stand behind this nomination so turning to another big factor in this election all together the krona virus pandemic of course the United States has hit another new milestone lets get this right 7000000 cases now more than 200000 deaths how significant is this likely to be going into the election in november well as the old saw goes one persons death is a tragedy 200000 is a statistic. This has been weighing on the american body politic and the difference in the polls when you see thats been a steady difference between joe biden and donald trump to bidens favor that difference is built on a pandemic that has literally had no president ial leadership or a failed president ial leadership that wont change so a distraction from reality with another reality fighting about abortion rights gun rights libertarian interpretations of the u. S. Constitution is an attempt to put a little bit of smoke when youre running out of mirrors like the smoke when youre running in americas urban collyer from Bard College Berlin really appreciate your insights glad to be here.

When i am to the far as i recall my childhood and the feeling what it felt to be a child in the forest somehow the forest child to me and she tries to bring that feeling into these photographs fabrics serve as her paintbrush. She looks for materials that will easily interact or blend in with the natural landscape. It is just my thing i need to follow. And i have been so many places and i know which. Suit through different landscapes like fields or forests with moss or. So i am following my voice. At her studio in helsinki she begins work on her next project but the basis for each photograph is the same there has to be another level not only that i have placed close to the landscape the enrich passed through gave me some kind of emotion and this emotion can be sadness fear or happiness but there has to be a deeper level in the events reach a part of a line and images often include secondhand clothing they awaken her curiosity about the former owner.

Luxury is often in the details and one of 5 star hotel in austria is being celebrated for its luxurious contribution to sustainability its built almost entirely out of wood a material thats valued for its durability and its capacity to absorb Carbon Dioxide the hotel is following a trend towards building for the future. Here among the lush woodlands of austrias still a valley wooden houses have a long tradition. Now theres even a new luxury hotel built almost entirely from wood which is how this building breathes you can describe it but when you experience it yourself it really gets under your skin this building can give you goose bumps. Malise god is a wooden 5 star Hotel Designed by renowned italian architect potato turn. 4 owners christine have been the egg and her husband reinhard and the hotel is a dream come true. In my view part of the luxury of would is how simple it is to build with that you know close the word luxury as many many things over the years the awareness of guests has grown in the sense that people really are looking for true luxury in the kind of natural and unspoiled environment that were living in. In the wishbone look kieth. Look burnishing its also contain many wouldnt beechers. The aim is for the hotels beyonds to appeal to all of the senses. Some of the wood has such a calming effect because it has a warm. And because its a living organism i think that comes across the 4 methods of. Austrian hauled marketa is in charge of the interior design of malis cotton. Even 6 months after opening he still likes to come by and inspect the pieces of furniture he designed especially for the hotel. Working with living natural material is an exciting challenge for him. Wood is unpredictable so when the sun shines on it that leads to cracks forming and thats what makes it completely unique so there are 15 tables here and each one has a different crowd. The Hotel Features 6 different kinds of timber from the region including spruce and walnut the owners are convinced that wood has a positive influence on peoples moods as well as their health. For example the building uses a lot of swiss pine not only does furniture made of swiss pine smell pleasant its supposed to lower the heart rate and encourage a good nights sleep. Building wooden houses isnt what i had been does blood including knowing when and how best to tell the trees. Depending on the base of the moon the wood can be calmer if i use it and its solid form so it doesnt twist or contort as much then the wood is simply calmer than that we case. More and more hotels and holiday homes are using this natural material inside and out in numerous European Countries buildings made of wood are becoming more popular more versatile and more modern like this 85. 00 metre residential tower in broome and dahl norway reports come in with wood you can always build something timeless if there are no architectural limits well this would also. Continues to live and its a Carbon DioxideStorage Facility with the wood every cubic metre of wood stores a ton of c o 2 by doing that here were storing about 1600 or 1700 tons. What could be better than a luxury vacation and an ecologically constructed hotel. But wooden buildings are more susceptible to weather conditions so its important that the highest standards are maintained in construction. Of the hopefully in the future there will be a lot more of this sort of construction with the focus on the thoughtful use of materials and on sustainability into. A happy medium between tradition and moderne and the the wooden hotel represents Sustainable Architecture with a future.
