These Tall Buildings outside the reading room. All you could see with sky. So its really a place where the city has grown up around the library. Host weiser called the reading room . Guest the rose family made this reading room in honor of their children when it was renovated in 1998 and during the renovation, every square inch of the surpluses in this room are touched by a. So its really restored to its original splendor. Host do you know about the paintings . Guest deserve murals that we have to actually recreate. They were in such a bad state of disrepair before the renovation. These were created in a studio on canvas and installed here. They are not paying michelangelo style.

Guest all of them are collections or more than 51 million items and we have all kinds of things from books to manuscript and archival role materials to photographs, prints, and menus, maps, all kinds of materials.

Class than the republicans are. The republican nominee has run a very personality centric campaign. She has talked about her career as a farmer, her career as a military veteran, someone engaging, someone using her personal biography in a very significant way. That is an advantage she has. Host steve in pennsylvania. Independent caller. Isler the media in general not keeping up to speed and neither are the candidates for the democratic or the republican parties, keeping up to speed with what is going on with the silent majority of the independent voters which is considered one third of the voting electorate. A very bigsue is thing in pennsylvania and a couple of other key states for the senate races. The opinion is being thrown out on the television by the media, they have not even affected the people on the streets. The street talk with neighbors and stuff like that is that the obamacare is also killing the middle class, especially in our area. I know of seven neighbors they cannot ge
And it is a tone that will depend largely on the administrations willingness to respect the message sent. That is one of the things that we are discussing on friday. It was a productive meeting and there were a lot that both parties can accomplish over the next couple of years. I hope that happens and i hope im optimistic currid working together requires trust. I think president obama has the duty to help build the trust that we all need to move forward together. And to double down on old ways of doing business. That is why i think moving forward with unilateral action would be a big mistake. As it was last nights announcement to give china a free pass on a mission while herding middleclass families and struggling miners here in our country. Last friday the president said that the American People would like to see more cooperation in washington. He says he thinks all of us have the responsibility and himself in particular to try to make that happen. And that is the kind of tone that th
And here too i will refer to my fathers 1959 address. He worried then about californias dangerously overcrowded prisons. A he talked about identifying those prisoners who should never be released to prey again on an innocent public, but he also said, we should also determine whether some prisoners are now kept confined after punishment has served its purpose. We face these same questions today what purposes should punishment serve and for how long should a person be confined to jail or prison, for a few days a few years or for life . In response to a large increase in crimes beginning in the 1970s, the legislature and the people, through ballot initiatives, dramatically lengthened sentences and added a host of new crimes and penalty enhancements. Today, californias legal codes contain more than 5,000 separate criminal provisions and over 400 penalty enhancements, an arcane and complex mix that only the most exquisitely trained specialist can fathom. And funding has grown proportionatel
Let me mention the 1986 bill and the fact that subsequent legislative proposals have had basically a similar formula legalization, empyer sanctions and forth. And weve seen these bills passed i one passed the senate 2006, the socalled comprehensive thing. 2007 the icoming and now allows Outgoing Senate majority leader harry reid screwed up the villa managed and not pass it in the senate in 07. Similar legislation passed in 2013. All this legislation was concoctein response to suations that occurred at tt time. Attended to support those bills. I tend not to support them now. Ive changed my views. Been accused of changing is views, when facts change i change my mind. What do you do sir . I have changed my views. When we are concocting what i will call for a greater purpose is comprehensive bills the assumption was that the surge was going to continue, nothing was going to stop it and that would be a continued demand or need for market for low skill labor in the United States, and mexican
