To it. But it is a mess. Alix this morning we are looking at the gulf of oman. We have two tankers under some kind of attack. About how or by whom. There are questions as to what it actually means. And who has the military capabilities to do that . Alix that is where you had those two vessels on their way to singapore, but a month ago we also had saudi tankers attacked, leaving questions as to who in the region would want that kind of attack and who would be able to carry it out.

Opecs monthly report lowering demand for the first quarter. Says, youre right, trade tensions and demand dont go handinhand. So we will see. David and had they set the d
From suffering to you, where the pink, unblinking Morning Light fluctuates . Where leaves from high branches pour like a transparent trap, sing to me and the song of the desert. The song of my life was brought up by the sun and in the morning gleb with airplanes teaching the dead to the earth shouting like a mad crow, shut up the whole mug of the machine gun and when it is torn in my heart. The voice of your garden sings. Thank you vladimir, tell us your memories of your grandfather. I am very sad that my grandfather and i saw each other. Unfortunately rarely. I really wanted to see him more often, because this is my native blood and my native genes. And unfortunately there were reasons why we rarely saw him. When i was little, we went with him to his homeland in posad, and Vyacheslav Vasilyevich took me with him, and we went in his car. I remember, in my opinion, he had a volga yes, white or black, i dont remember, yes, the volga is white and he put me on knees and let him hold on to
To our speaker. To provide background, in 2012 house passed our office to compile oral histories from current and former numbers of congress involved in the selma to montgomery, alabama marches. We have been conducting interviews related to the Civil Rights Movement with members of congress, their family members house staff, and house pages. We wanted to use our oral histories in a creative way to connect the dots the an event that happened in the country and the corresponding legislative response. We created a documentary short. The documentary is in its final stages of production, so i do not have it today, but the three clips are brought would give you a taste of the documentary.

Its like going to war when you publish a book. No, its like giving birth, here it is. It was long awaited. No, no, the thing about this book that i thought was especially great was it took me back, truly took me back to the mid and early 90s, you know. This is a novel based on real events.
