I am paula murphy. I lived in San Francisco for the past 25 years. For the past 10 i have been playing tennis in San Francisco mostly on public courts. Jumping off what peg said i want to focus my comments on what a huge benefit having lights at golden Gates Tennis Center will be. Imagine you work for a living, which i think most of us do, that you cant afford to be a member of the private club, and you play doubles. Mosmost of us of a certain age y doubles. You know, what are your options for playing tennis other than weekends . You get into your cars or on your bike or whatever, Public Transportation and go across the city and all four of you meet there and you just cross your fingers and hope that nobody is playing. Often times there is someone playing, there is people waiting. Then you decide, okay, are we going to wait two hours and stand here or try to go somewhere else . Then you all get in cars or on your bike and go somewhere else and hope the same situation doesnt await you.

International there has been a big thing going for todays. Building a wall before the debate. One taco truck, one worker, i work for a housekeeper. The rest of the people are spanish car 80 of the second class for donald trump. These are the barriers they have raised outside his tower to have this day before he speaks tonight. And the state for tonight is also prepared surrounded now by even tighter security and even more social and worldwide media. She will be steady and, whatever donald trump tries to throw at her. Tim kaine debating campaigning in ohio. I dont know what will see that he has telegraphed a little bit. Its going to be scorched earth. Nancy pelosi speaking out in washington. Saying the elections are rigged on the basis of nothing is really so irresponsible. And the longer trump defending her father from los angeles. From a media perspective its hard to get an accurate portrayal of who he is as a person. Donald trump is to try to move past Sexual Misconduct allegations f
From the deep south to new england, snow, ice and a blizzard have tens of millions of people hunkered down. Its being blamed for more than a dozen deaths already and dropped 2 feet of snow.
