and that that's not how it happened i had a great high school run i mean you know i had a lot of fun paradigm friends i had too much fun and if you're like me and my friends you drive around in that for pools and you go skinny and that's what we did for entertainment. i have a problem with girls i could always get very nice girls beautiful girls intelligent girls but i couldn't get the stupid one. and i wanted the stupid. one night stand but that i never achieved she was wearing glasses made me notice. how. i found my now why youth when she was sixteen and. maybe you call it a lack of opportunity but i'm still with her. she was long and not stupid.

for most getting behind the wheel of a car was the road to independence and freedom. the ways mason was determined to drive no matter how difficult it was for her just his sickly to get behind the wheel and do up her seat. driving instructor to never have a shot tonight to save. somebody. but the test. was exactly the same as everyone else there's no difference they came so natural it's not be driving. me most of my life and.

my parents they were the most practical people i think i've ever met in my entire life so when it came to learning how to drive. that was just practical that way you can get around on your own you want to have nine people to take care of you don't have to worry about. taking a bus or you jam and it was really just about trying to figure it out. anyway i just love driving what i love the different things about to do. most people don't consider the power of my mind and i'm my mind is very powerful tool and it get into it interjects all kinds of things into my system so that my feet are literally. my hands so when it comes to driving. i get really seriously and i have high explain why can't i can drive with one foot on the wheel what is peoples excuse they've got both hands and their feet and yet they drive like. this doesn't exist. in germany. knew from an early age he had to choose a future occupation that would not require the use of. his deformed arms because

all too soon true for the sixers to meet on the phone from bush's one hundred some odd fortissimo i realized quite soon i'm never will be a conductor or a painter or a dancer i can't sing so i become a director because i'm you know i can't do anything else but to pursue his dream nikko went to prestige his film schools and apprenticed under the legendary german director rayner vernon fast binder before making a number of successful feature films but there was one prize job he wanted badly directing a big movie unfiltered in mind and the head of german t.v. said no you can't have the job but you can make a documentary on. the to might and i said you know i you know i think that was income and i shouted at him i use the f. word very loudly and very often because i said i apply for the job you know you pay

well and not the documentary filmmaker who gets your pate you know and that's so typical you know you give the disabled guy the side job you know and then i went home and my wife said what's the matter and i told her they want me to do a film about the little mite and what do i know about the little mite. and she looked at me and said. nico it's time to look the devil in the. hand i don't know what your lives are like sometimes life can really be rough on people i understand that i get it i've been in real life alvin law is a motivational speaker who's influenced audiences in north america and australia with his message of hope is specially to more than two million youngsters who heard his top speaking is the best thing i could have ever cited here you're helping kids and they need to have somebody come in and tell them that it's going to be ok but i

get such tremendous joy out of doing it there is nothing in my life that makes you happier than speaking to kids nothing and the next time you're ready to give up or quit or back again well if it helps even a little bit remember the goofy looking guy that played the drums with his feet but remember the words i live by every day. there's no such word as can't. thanks. alan travels over one hundred thousand miles a year on his own but after thirty years on the road his body is starting to wear it takes its toll career and that stuff around i mean you know my body may not last as long as normal bodies do because of what i'm putting it through i mean as much as i make this look easy i'm still put my body through a lot of stuff it's the pain in my back from carrying my luggage scar tissue in my shoulder from carrying a briefcase for thirty five years and you know there's not really a shoulder here so what i'm carrying it with i should be doing this i should have

like a sherpa or something. how does a guy without arms function on the road all by himself i can carry my own luggage with straps i check into all tells all on my own i i rent cars my keys there you go oh thank you boston my toes think you are now why do i rent cars and it's just how i prefer to function i don't do cabs because strangely they don't stop when you go . trotting around all the airports checking into hotels eat bad food drive and everywhere in the middle of nowhere getting involved in blizzards and swearing at my wife for putting me out yet in another life and death situation and not think about getting paid enough so i mean i can get on a rant but at the end of the day she also says this line this is a wonderful line. i mean if you're tired of traveling i'm sure there's a cubicle with your name written out in a windowless office somewhere in the middle of nowhere for a mundane job that you to five minutes. and then it goes. in germany. had to overcome his lifetime aversion to others the limit is when he

decided to make a documentary in which he and eleven other victims would pose nude for a calendar first i went to a disability school and from that moment on i wanted to have nothing to do with the martyrs anymore and then because i made this film nobody's perfect i was kind of forced to me. to make this film. i didn't want to look at myself. any come on nobody's perfect change every. change how i look at myself. it changed the movement of so that i might it's complete because the first lawyer is not someone else not doctors were fighting for us really big time we were fighting i think for me. also as

a lender miters but also for the public some see. the energy change. eco fund law is all a logical thing nobody's perfect thanks. in two thousand and eight nico received the german equivalent of an oscar for his documentary on thunderdome. is defining for me and for me to heist this idea that i sometimes. we are dealing. with the environs if you go to didn't meet and talk to. keep. us up. thank goodness to get the money. in college eileen cronin fell in love with andy a graduate student in economics i was in love very definitely for sight.

although. i already had a boyfriend you know i immediately was drugged or you know her very own intelligence. her wit we moved in together. and we got pregnant very quickly. very quickly. i was wracked with worry all my life about having a child because i didn't know for sure that my mother had taken the limb in my eyes i was kind of panicked it started just settle in oh my god i'm going to have a baby i don't even know if i can have a baby i don't know if the baby's going to have legs or not have legs or something else but also literally i did not know how i was going to carry a baby in my back and so they did the ultrasound the alter

sound technician zoomed in right away found foot one foot blew it up took a picture and wrote flights and then other foot hands fingers and. i was crying and all the intern started babbling we knew that she would be ok. and i only were best friends it's not hard to understand why i. took up to be a ballet dancer because that's something her mother wanted to be and she was very. humorous to us.

the truth of the civil. model for some period this is their. roles because they acquired a business with the most historical. is the would go poof. not a slow slow slow slow slow motion i am pleased to. see. the case is that i know it that your body will soon look at the model your body is

diplo its most of its home from the show such as the moon soles the. moon newborn you must. move. the. blushes and they teach you the chico to hold more than the beach he could hold most for each team you'll be set it's all that it seems it's a shot since that only shooting against. him into. the utility bills if i said keep it it. was a bit of a jump over to the left in the scheme to show. maybe shelly's.

to slip through the screening these are still some t m forty some death toll. that eucalyptus missed of last time i am a listener but. i don't think the democrats are much closer to negotiate with the republicans or president so i think people are going to have to acknowledge that the united states over the next couple years is going to be consumed even more so by our internal our total bickering in affairs. dollars. dollars. dollars i mean a dollar

a dollar is what i was doing. when we got carried over here we care the music with us. we are here we were dragged here. by you're not going to get rid of those who are not go away who will not die quietly. real the hard work we do is the true. politicians to do something to. put themselves on the line they did exist. little reject. so when you want to be president injury. or something want to.

have to do it for us this is what the four three of the four can be get that are going to stay always in the waters in the house. there should be. when his first wife sandy became pregnant alvin law was terrified about what the future held when i saw him come out of there with two arms and. to hands and five little fingers on. i didn't care what brand he was at all care if it was a she or he it didn't matter. it was just the most tremendous feeling my son. would not. knowing back i worried a lot about how i was going to play ball with i was going to maybe try teaching know what it's all about teach him to play frisbee impeachment throw or you know i mean all those things that you want to have

a care if yours do. we don't have to have arms to be a father. you don't need arms to love. you don't need arms to be there you don't mean arms to listen you don't need arms to be a father at all unfortunately too many fathers that have arms don't realize that. never forget that that's true you just have to be there for him. and. that surprised me. the tears i don't i'm not sad i'm just. he's big he was a little there and. i miss that little boy sometimes but that's not how life works right is in our no regular person he's got same regular personalities nothing really wrong about it and you just have to step in knowing you can't just judging by the way he looks. what he brings and what he gives is much more so than anything

else could bring you know he gives great you know fatherly advice is a great role model is a great person. and that's all you can ask. louise mason had been a single mother for ten years when she received a christmas card from an old boyfriend i've heard that louis haven't been very well and kind to a christmas card and calm down and read aloud i think the park reignited if the best way to describe it he kissed me goodbye and butterflies were. i was sort of floating on on a cloud and he told his wife he was leaving. she how to impact our. and then he moved down in. the been together since. politico did up an understanding with the two of them it's really weird you know

but we cannot it from there you go i wouldn't know what i'm talking about what you don't about brownout right away what you're going to go through to not of the head or a mannerism you pick up you know the little mode if you just pick up on it so that if you go the flick then you know it really really fascinating i were we communicate he would go there without even talking. and i think we i think we were made for it to the to be on. our member thinking twenty years old divorced got a kid losing my hair gaining a gut no arms what a package and then i got to thinking you know i've got to change this that's how allen introduced himself to his future wife darlene who was sitting in the audience one day that conference was the first time i heard him speak in it actually believe tonight sounds corny but it was a life changing event for me. i was in the process of. considering making a final decision about

a rather unhappy marriage. i thought yeah right life is too short i have to make decisions for myself. i mean anybody that sees or for the first time missed that smile and just absolutely and i melted. i have friends who tell me that i smiled more the day of my wedding than they've ever seen me smile in my entire life and it was permanently glued there for days that was the beginning of the joy that ended in the ring on that finger and it's still there today. you can't even describe it it's like all these years of anxious and frustration just melted away in five minutes. you still. right he can't. hear life is letter she's passed her best before date so she's got no choice you've got to stick with me about there's no option you know me get it there i don't stop traffic. you know you don't really care.

how the. lows just like anybody else. can better and. better. work there's a lot of credit that i get for doing this but i didn't just do this you know i had my parents first i had my teacher second and then i had her and those three elements of my life they've really been what has supplied the fuel for what drives . in australia. with the british company that bought and still has co-defendants in a multi-million dollar class action suit centered on the next row case melbourne woman lynette rowe is suing the drugs manufacturer agreement the company wanted the . in germany where it's never successfully been so that the victorian supreme court

today dismissed that application this was an application by the company that might lead him on the worst drug in the history of medicine to have an armless legless woman who has no money and doesn't speak german if she wishes to have a dying court have to move to germany for the next five years so we had. anger and tells a defendant's grins how have this never given never admit a thing never considered fought to the bitter end of the still was a much more compassionate sensible way to approach which was once convinced of the strength of the climb i settled with when i couldn't tell than post sent we had to get up and fight aids day every day in court where the incredible damage they grow into it but don't tell me now that the settlement amount was a multi-billion dollar some it was

a sum sufficient to provide lynn with first class care for the rest of off really dramatically transform the rose law grin and refused to pay a cent of the multi-million dollar settlement a two months later held a press conference so it could apologize to its victims for the first time in fifty years the other way no it's because you only surety go that's your first chance to get a longish two victory in front managed to mention. that doesn't obviously have to sell out their apologized for some. reach out to us all. they are they never apologized for the suffering they're coaxed. and they pay for that you know for their wrong it was no a clutch it. comes from the heart. their apology came from that lawyers it because the n.h. was a longish. size and testament us adults is even. by wednesday

f.m. they couldn't have gone into something shocking we had to get up and fight aids day and day every day in court where the incredible damage they've grown to or don't do . to me many of them won't go. good intel is still a privately owned company the votes family owns it today just as it did in one hundred sixty it does not have show shareholders demanding returns the vet's family's personal fortune has been variously estimated at between two and three billion euros it would not drive that family into. penury or bankruptcy or poverty to loosen the purse strings and behave in a more generous fashion to suppose i'd not only want the money i want the revanche . i want the rivera show they they kill two thousand children yeah they made a lot of five thousand children slice miserable then make the life of ten thousand

parents also. they are responsible they should pay for. themselves no longer makes them in the mind and continue to deny most the little mite is outside germany any compensation no survivors feel they have received an acceptable apology. going into our refuse to be interviewed for this film. the original thalidomide drug is easy and cheap to manufacture and continues to be made and distributed by several drug companies and governments to treat lafferty unfortunately it is mostly used in countries that often do not enforce rigorous controls and regulation as a result the little babies are still. tragically there seems to be no limits to the thalidomide disaster. yeah.

so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy confrontation let it be an arms race off and spearing dramatic development only

personally i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical diam time to sit down and talk. when lawmakers manufacture consent instant of public wealth. when the room in closest to protect themselves. with the fine and merry go round lifts only the one percent told. to ignore middle of the room signal. room the real news is. the world.

rushes and they. go to home or to the beach because the whole thing is true to seem your he said it's not that it's indeed some chances that all the shooting against. him into. the utility bills in a circle included. a use of it i was called but i'm going to have to be a scheme to show. the true believer shirley's. given to us but to the south koreans are still dumb not to be come forth from the. that eucalyptus mr west i am more sure of.

fracking gave americans a lot of new job opportunities i needed to come up here to make some money i could make twenty five thousand dollars as a teacher or i could make fifty thousand dollars a year truck so i chose to drive trucks people rush to a small town in north dakota was an unemployment rate of zero percent like gold rush is very very similar to a gold rush but this beautiful story ended with pollution and devastation a lot of people have left here i don't know too many people here and just slow down so much they lost their jobs got laid off and the american dream is changing it's not what it used to be. and it's a tough reality to deal. for

just twelve euros fifty. weeks a big stories from our mains ministerial the british prime minister. on her own government resignation for a. second referendum on. the last game piece to consider the national interest and give it their backing the withdrawal agreement represents a huge and damaging five year deal that is already. in the water. documents revealed.
