this is a video that shows the plan buildings, which you can see out in blue in the southern half of the graphic. it shows the shadows sweeping across the downtown throughout the day. lower left you can see two days of year this is the case for. november 29th and january 11th. every day as you know has a mirror image on another part of the year because of the seasons. you can see the clock ticking down hour by hour as the shadows are moving. you can see the outlines of the parks are dark green. where the shadows pass from the potential buildings pass over reck park property cast in green. it shows number a bright orange color. so on these they show the maximum on justin hermann plaza and portsmouth. i will show you one more time and pause it. here the shadows are moving fast in the morning. between 10:00 and 11:00 they slow down and start moving very slowly through the midday hours. here is 1:00 in the afternoon. 1300 hours. none of the buildings have yet hit justin hermann plaza. you can see -- you can identify the transit tower a bit. it is the longest one in the middle. you can see

nixon comes along much conversation about the southern strategy. hat time, you didn't need to be very smart to know the south was in an uproar. there was george wallace who by that time, run couple final for presidency -- time for presidency. i want to emphasize this over and over again, the democratic party is changing dramatically. the south is not at that point. along comes the period of this slowly building depth. not nearly of marriage but relationships. so you have now another famous moment. nixon wins. he's not hurt by the fact there's another candidate in there. the fact is the democrat has no possibility of carrying in the south. strange thing happens, the democratic party gets even more to the left as far as the rest of the country is concerned. along comes the mcgovern election. i remember it well because i was traveling with something called the grasshopper special, which was liz carpenter's "lady bird" special from the 1964 election. we were serious about carrying the south. we spoke at the north carolina state fair and so help me, that

at the time, market street was at the southern edge of downtown and through that effort, policies were made to shift the balance of growth to relieve pressure on historic resources as well as the neighborhood's surrounding historic financial district. the vision for 30 years has been to increase the density and the concentration of growth around the trends bay terminal. there was not yet a vision for this modern facility that we are investing in today. at the time, the highest heights in the city were zoned for any leak adjacent to the terminal. a whole series of programs were created to shift growth to this area. the demolition of the freeway is something that has reshaped the landscape since the plant opened up the southern edge of the financial district to a creation of a new neighborhood which was not envisioned in the '80s when the freeway hurdled the southern side of downtown. you saw the new residential neighborhood which has been planned for in the former embarcadero freeway land and a neighborhood of about 10,000 housing units. it will be a high density neighborhood. those pla

in guangzhou in the southern province of guangdong, about 10 people carrying chinese frags gathered near a building. they shouted slogans about protecting the islands. the japanese consulate general says anti-japan protests were also held in weihei. in shandong province. photos of supposed demonstrators have been posted online. >>> executives at large japanese companies are feeling something they haven't for a while -- optimism. they report an improved move for the first time in a year. the finance ministry and the cabinet office released the results of a survey of more than 15,000 firms. they measured the percentage of companies, saying conditions are better than the previous quarter, minus those saying conditions are worse. the result this time was 2.2, the first positive measure in four quarters. ministry officials point to an increase in housing and port construction in northeastern japan. orders for electronic parts for new smartphones also picked up. the outlook for the october to december quarter is also positive at 5.4. however, finance ministry officials say business sentiment r

there is much conversation about the southern strategy. ow that the south had had enough. there was george wallace, who had run a couple of times for presidency and was discovering that not southerners, but lots of others, were not amused by certain changes in the democratic party. i will emphasize this over and over. the democratic party is changing dramatically. the south is not, at that point. so along comes the period of this slowly building data. -- death, not merely of a marriage, but of a number of other relationships. nixon winds. -- wins. he is not hurt by the fact that there is another candidate, but a democrat has no possibility of anything in the south. a strange thing happens, of course. the democratic party gets even more to the left as far as the rest of the country is concerned. along comes the mcgovern election. i remember it well. i was traveling with something called the grasshopper special, similar to the lady bird special from the 1964 election. we were serious about covering the south. we spoke at the north carolina st

the state legislature. not something you can say in a lot of other southern states. on the question of voting rights, there's a big presence of racial coalition building here. the talk about barack obama putting a coalition together, that has been true in north carolina for folks both black and white to compete on the democratic side. in the current state legislature, there are seven african-americans in the state senate. none of them represent a majority african-american constituencies. you will not see that most other southern states. however it is important because it's a trend that is likely to be changed and it is likely to be changed because of party competition. we just finished a round of redistricting controlled by the republican party and their goal is to go back to the pew center to make the republican party a solid, largely white party, but certainly to leave the largest constituency among democratic voters to be african-american. we know the difference is numerically if we make this a racially divided election always means the democratic party will lose.

. >> the typhoon is now headed for tie yan and also the southern islands of japan. right now a violent and large typhoon definitely the strongest category typhoon. sustained winds are 200 kilometers per hour with gusts over 270. it looks like it will get close to taiwan or the sakashima islands by saturday morning local time. stormier conditions are in the cards. gusts of 100 kilometers per hour are likely in the islands on friday. that will get even faster on saturday. so things will become critical over the next few days here. after that, the system will veer to the northeast. so it will move through the okinawa or other islands of japan for the next couple of -- few days. so things will become severe here. in terms of rainfall we anticipate as much as 100 to 250 millimeters of rain in eastern taiwan and more rain is in the cards in japan. we are anticipating upwards of 350 millimeters in parts of the southern islands of japan. definitely this is enough to cause flooding as well as landslides. all right. we have another severe tropical storm. it continues to pull a

we anticipate upwards of 350 millimeters in the southern islands of japan. definitely this is enough to cause flooding. all right. we have another severe tropical storm. it continues to pull away from the islands and is now targeting the east islands. stormy conditions are still occurring here. waves could reach eight meters today. as it moves to the northeast, waves will be across the pacific nation. it's not going to make landfall through japan but could activate the frontal system from late this afternoon into friday. thundershowers across the northeastern peninsula. it should be cooling down to 21 degrees as we look ahead to friday. moving into the americas then, tropical storm amelia continues to weaken and move away from mexico. that's good news. it will continue into thursday as we move into friday. there is a long frontal line from eastern canada to the southern plains bringing severe weather. that means thunderstorms, large hail, damaging winds and tornadoes. the conditions will ease on thursday. out west there is a low pressure system dragging cold

this is the southern strategy at-large. chris, real substantive political leaders in america, presidents, like fdr in the 30s or ronald reagan in the 80s, tend to remake their parties in their own images around their own core beliefs. mitt romney doesn't appear to have a core that you can build anything around. so, as a result, the party remakes him in its image. the party, the republican party right now is dominated by this, you call them a fringe but it is a larger chung than that. these kind of tea party folks. you have to adopt their delusional world view, which includes things like obama is a muslim candidate who hates america and is all about destroying the country. you have to blow the dog whistle constantly to reassure those people that you buy into that and that is what romney is doing. we have seen what horrible trouble it has gotten him into with egypt and libya now. >> well, the dismantling, terrifying thing to watch is the way a lot of moderate white people, republicans and democrats sit there and say they don't

and we have a long frontal line, stretching from the southern plains up into eastern canada, underneath the storm, severe weather is occurring. that means, severe thunderstorms, large hail, damaging wind and tornados. but conditions are gradually improving as we look ahead to your thursday. all right. temperatures are looking like this to the north of the front. looking cool, 18 degrees in chicago. 17 degrees in toronto. but to the south of the front, looking very hot. in oklahoma city. 30 degrees. 33 degrees expected in houston. and 29 degrees in atlanta on thursday. that's it for me now. here is your extended forecast. >>> that's all for now on this edition of "newsline." i'm yuko aotani in tokyo. thank you very much for joining us.

this is the southern strategy at large. real substantive political leaders in america. presidents, for instance, like fdr in the 30s or ronald reagan in the '80s tend to remake the party around their own core of beliefs. mitt romney doesn't appear to have a core that you can build anything around. so as a result the republican party remakes him. and the republican party is dominated by this -- you call them a fringe, but it's a larger chunk than that, these kind of tea party folks. you have to adopt their world view. you have to blow the dog whistle constantly to reassure those people that you buy into that and that is what romney is doing. and we see what horrible trouble it's gotten him into with egypt and libya. >> the dismaying if not terrifying thing to watch is the way a lot of moderate white people, republicans and democrats say they don't hear the whistle. i noticed this week after the american deaths in libya the language of the other, portraying the president siding the the enemy. on tuesday reince priebus said obama sympathizes with the attackers in egypt. sad
