Youre always welcome up here. Thank you. Gentleman from florida seek recognition. Yes, thank you. Gentlemans recognized. Mr. Chairman first. Thank you. And our presenters i perceive and believe that mr. Pallone and mr. Shuster are two good friends of mine here in congress. And im deeply appreciative of them all the time. Im hopeful of mr. Cramer getting to know you better. On this subject, i would echo the sentiments of my good friend. It does appear just listening to you, and this is the second time ive had that opportunity that you certainly do know your subject. And i, for one am appreciative of members who make their presentations in a manner that is not abrasive but makes it in a persuasive manner in the perspective that you hope. I also would like to borrow from our good friend from oklahoma, mr. Cole a notion of something that i believe he and i would be able to work on right away. And ive done some initial work on it. Understanding that the price of oil or today, and im not a P
Century but take on an expertdriven advice. The new housekeeping efficiency study in home management. Household engineer and professional consultant. One question we might pose here, i think its clear how much frederick is indebted to spun like taylor. Right . But how much has changed in the envisioning of the household from the time of the beacher sisters in the 1860s to this moment . Whats changed and whats remained the same . Nothing is every totally a break with the past, we might say. What strikes about you this . She has taken this idea of the Scientific Method and applied it to make it as efficient as possible and saving time in everything way and everything is planned out. At the end i was interested when she threw out this is why this is so important and women are leaving becoming mothers to join the work force and thats slil because housekeeping is so important. That reminded me of the beacher sisters. It was her taking the new methods but keeping the ideal of household keepi
Century. And especially lay consumer culture. We talked about the motor behind the story, and i think we settled on one word. Desire. Desire was the kind of engine with the story. Wanting what you cant have. Always being able to see what is ahead of you that is elusive that youre trying to grasp. And thats what makes things happen in the novel. Remember that carrie is never satisfied. And recall the department store, right . Where he felt as he tells us the claim of each trinket and valuable upon her personally. We talked a little bit too about the moral of the story. A moral for the 20th ench ri maybe that there is no moral, right . Things happen to people. Good things happen to bad people, right . People arent punished for bad deeds. In fact sometimes like carrie, theyre rewarded. So what he8f kind of Success Story at vik torn period. That victorian ladder of virtue. The changing of fortunes was not the result of strong character or even of planning and preparedness. Think back to th
Documents influence on american law. The men spoke at the library of congress where a 13th century copy of the magna carta is on display. King john originally signed the document under pressure from his barons in england. American revolutionaries looked to the rights guaranteed by the magna carta as they rebelled against the british crown. This is 40 minutes. [applause] justice breyer, thank you very much for taking the time thank you. To do this. Were going to talk about the magna carta, but before we do so, id like to talk about a few other things because we rarely get a chance to interview a justice of the Supreme Court. Since i rarely get this opportunity, let me take advantage of it now and say that when you grew up, you grew up in california and went to stanford and harvard law school, but did you always intend to be a law professor and then want to be a judge . How did that come about to be a judge . I wanted to go into law. My father was a lawyer. You may not remember that you
Of my lighting to l. E. D. S. I put probes in all of my electrical meters. I found ways to improve things. Little things, biodegradable trash bags, china paper plates are 100 recycles. I still use them. Trash bags, i would like to use biodegradable trash bags they are shipped 50 on top of each other and eight folded so theyre not on a roll and they dont have a draw string or elastic in them. I wont use them because theyre inconvenient. Its really just packaging and distribution. I have been consulted with austins strategies board, look here is some firsthand knowledge im gaining about trying to live that way with things are easy to adopt and others wont adopt unless we fix the form factor of the delivery of these solutions. Were going to take a break and come back with a new speaker to finish the program. A big round of applause for richard garriott.
