Xhaerl for restarting this program and calling upon our department to lead the way with all the other partners weve identified today but; right when governor jerry brown said this was something right and the state should offer up to 10 million of back up just in case people have a fear its about reducing the boyers for people to make the choices by people who want to parent. Were reminded of that recently because this launch of the program is relevant today as weve all trying to help the victims of the typhoon recover and storms of this nature are on our minds as well as other climate changes as we want to make our world alert better. Scientists continue to tell you those storms will only get worse because of climate change. Thats why our response to 81 phenomenas has to go beyond disaster relief.

And so travel with me and lets go to havana, cuba, and to know a little bit about the irish, the few irish that went to cuba, in particular to havana. I want you to know that on the left side of the entrance to the havana harbor, there is a wellknown fortress, el moro. There is a lighthouse there and the moro has become a image of cuban nationality and in particular havana. In that lighthouse you find, you read an when you enter the havana harbor, you find an irish name. That lighthouse was known for many years as the odono lighthouse. Who was this person, odono the man that oversaw the project of the lighthouse in 1844 and he was a governor of cuba from 1843 to 48, but he was a spanish man of irish origin and irish ancestry, a descendant of the chieftan of the ticanelles.

Project of the lighthouse in 1844 and he was a governor of cuba from 1843 to 48, but he was a spanish man of irish origin and irish ancestry, a descendant of the chieftan of the ticanelles.

It was one of the favorite streets of inaudible secretary of the spanish count of fernandino, my grandfather, another irish man feeling at home in havana.
