it terrified the associates. but they had to do was suppress this and any other ships that would follow. it turned out the greatest ally was mrs. brandon. who had very good reason and she got his stock in a diverse element and they got it back 850 dollars a share. even in 50 times what brandon had paid for it, and many many more times what it was worth. so the associates called this blackmail. they referred anything to blackmail, that was going to force them to give them account of what they were doing in the central pacific. it damaged them a great deal, even though didn't go through. and the torpedoes bonds bond sales. so the early 18 seventies with the associates are left with is and indebted railroad, badly built. had to be rebuilt. and very little traffic. it is not something that brings a boom to california. minnesota, kansas iowa they all that the railroads grow much more quickly. and nevada, the other state it goes through, it loses population after the completion of the railroad. so the question is why d

your family association your district association, then you might join a fraternal association here is the chinese freemasons the bengong town if the organization discovered you could get a charter for a building if you were listed as freemasons, and so they did and so today they are listed as the chinese freemasons. the one fact one would be hard put to prove that they actually have a connection to the european freemasons. now, this was a very important part of the foundation of chinatown. one of the things that happened was it allowed chinatown to rebuild in two years the city took three years to rebuild after the earthquake and fire and the reason is very simple even though they could not own the land the buildings were held by the organization so when they had to rebuild they had the entire membership to draw on they didn't have to wait for one individual to have enough money in order to rebuild so they were able to rebuild chinatown very very quickly. number two if you belong to a family association or a district association, once you're here your membership tends to be pretty sta

one of the things my association, the american association of community colleges, is taking an equity initiative, making sure that not only do students transfer in good numbers from community colleges, but also all of our students from the very rich gamut of the types of students who attend our institutions are able to make that transition in an easy way because it is an easy transition in many cases. one of the things we know is that when students lose credits in the process of transferring, it is bad in many ways, bad for the students because they end up paying twice for credits they already took. it is bad for the government because they are paying for money twice supporting them at community colleges and a year college if it is a public one. and it is bad for student success because it is shocking really how many students lose their educational progress when they lose their credits and transfer, so it is absolutely essential the transfer be accommodated as efficiently and effectively as possible. heading back to the biden plan and legislation pending in congress is one of the thin

just the remnants of the associated press and the al-jazeera offices in gaza that rubble really does. is all that's left of the homes and offices of these families and residents in that area there is a lot of focus though you know on the fact that this is the media has not been directly targeted here the international media has not been directly targeted by its really forces in the middle of this assault but this is the 1st time is it this isn't the 1st time that organizations like al jazeera have come under attack in gaza just seen for us tell us more of the sort of the pressures there are when it comes to being a reporter working in gaza and the the the things that you have to deal with the violence that you have to deal with us are journalists trying to tell stories from gaza. that violence is great i mean. despite despite israel claiming that it is not targeting international media or it's not targeting media office in gaza i mean with 3 towers where they hold media offices in gaza being totally destructed i think there is there and there needs to be another just occasion for this

news agency, "the associated press," and the jazeera network. once more, a massive building in gaza is reduced by israel's version of shock and awe to rubble and dust. the israeli military warned the building occupants, among them families, to evacuate before the bombing. the israeli air force claims the building contained what it called hamas military-intelligence assets, which it alleges were using media outlets as shields. the air-and-artillery campaign against gaza continues with mounting intensity, as hamas and other militant factions fire barrage after barrage of rockets into israel. gaza's cramped confines, israel's claims to be avoiding civilian casualties, often, seems to ring hollow. as the residents of the crowded refugee camp bury their dead. early-saturday morning, israeli warplanes struck a home in the crowded camp killing at least ten people. eight of them, children. among them, four of mohammed's five sons and his wife. the only son to survive, found under the rubble, was a five month old. they destroyed the house without warning

this is a meeting of the association of ministers. and we rely upon your sense for good order, proper respect for the nominee to the highest office of our land and good christian behavior generally. our little mouse has grown into a lion of significance. this has not been our original intention, but things happen these ways. may the atmosphere be informal here. an informal gathering of -- and may the atmosphere be maintained. may i speak a welcome to all of you. i'm the reverend herbert mesa and our program chairman. >> this program this evening does not constitute an endorsement of either the speaker or the party which he represents. the program has been motivated by the religious issues in this campaign. issues that are not modern. there are some who insist that nothing has changed within the roman catholic church and there are others who insist that nothing should change. the problem is not the denial of the religious issue or to brand as intolerant those who raise it. we are to determine where the candidate stands in relationship

associated press is demanding any independent investigation.d they know of no evidence ohamas operating in the building. if a reporter for the associated press and the gaza strip who's been covering israel's attack on gaza over the past week. you work with al jazeera as well. talk about what happened to the building. talk about where you work. >> i am reporter at the associated press and al jazeera. while we were at the building, a normal day of work, reported what is happening on the gaza strip, we suddenly got a call by the owner of the building saying he was called by the israeli army and asked to tell the residents of the building to immediately evacuate in an hour. the building would be targeted. an emergency situation for us. everyone was frightened of what was going to happen. usually when we get calls, there is a targeting by warning missile that is close to the building or in an empty apartment building. that is what we were afraid of. a warning missile was targeted next to the building. we were running around on the stairs. the buildi

debra burger with the california nurses association.thanks so much for take the time to spend with us here tonight on kron 4 news at 9 o'clock. first question, why is the california nurses association taking this stance. the california nurses association as well as the largest union in the country. >> national nurses. united. are taking a stance that we still need masks for protection because of the variants that are still available in this country and the fact that only 30% of our country is vaccinated. and you can't tell whether a person is vaccinated just by looking at them and the cdc guidelines are confusing at best and making their credibility stretched very thin at this point. >> one of the biggest concerns for nurses right now. obviously you touched on the fact that we still have a number of variants that are popping up left and right in a number of states. is that their only concern or are there more concerns with this. there are other concerns were concerned because right now we're still seeing covid hospitalizations and death

is an association what questions _ certainty. is an association what questions are - certainty.ociation what questions are you - certainty. is an association i what questions are you being asked the most about travel to spain and portugal?— spain and portugal? when will the be spain and portugal? when will they be able — spain and portugal? when will they be able to _ spain and portugal? when will they be able to come - spain and portugal? when will they be able to come and - spain and portugal? when will they be able to come and we | they be able to come and we have to quarantine when they come back home which is an interesting question because as a european association we get asked that by operators, tour operators from the united states or canada or australia or south korea. i think it is going to be very important to develop work and develop the digital queen certificates now renamed the digital covid certificate. and the agreement by the eu countries to allow the exterior borders to open. we're also hearing that the european union is drawing up this white list allow travel

secondly, we have some effects that are associated with a surge in demand, associated with two things. first, the economy is reopening quite quickly as vaccinations are proceeding. and of course, there was an important support to households through the relief payments and other payments in the fiscal package, in fact, two fiscal packages earlier this year and of course, we also expect some of that to show through, suspending. and as that's coming into the economy, that effective reopening, that surge in demand, there's some bottle necks in the supply chains. and we see that, in a sense, for semiconductors, and the impact can be seen in specific sectors. we followed that in the april tpi measure and it's important for tracking inflation trends. the largest monthly increases for items for demand has risen sharply relative to depressed levels during the pandemic such as hotels and air fares with well-known supply issues such as cars and computers. and we saw that important effect of base effects. while i open we'll see further increases in the coming months, i would expect those associat

i'm hoping we'll talk to me from the associated press. i've been trying for him almost 20 years, please tell your dad. i'm going to give him a call next week and john said he would so we parted ways and a few days later. i called jack wilpers. i still had his phone number. he was still living in garrett park, maryland. his wife had passed away a few years earlier and i got him on the phone told him who i was told. i'd ran into his son on a beach in massachusetts and hoping he would talk to me about caption and told you and he did jeff overton hang up on me. i spoke with him for the next hour. so on the phone i got information from him on that day when he captured told joe. he remembered everything and it was the first time he had spoken to an associated press reporter on that subject since that day and it was only the second time he had talked to a major news outlet about the tokyo capture the first time being with washington post. um, he gave me details on his back his family background his father being a bookie at the racetrack and i ca

dr richard jarvis co—chairs the british medical association's public health medicine committee.ere are a couple of reasons for this, one is the indian variant and the second is related to the large numbers of people in the general population that have yet to be vaccinated. so thinking a little bit about the indian variant, there is good evidence to suggest now that it transmits more easily than the variant that has been dominant in the uk for a few months. the evidence on severity of illness, we are looking very carefully at that. but that appears to be a similar sort of illness to the other variants. and whether the indian variants. and whether the indian variant is combated by vaccines as well as the dominant strain at the moment. so vaccine effectiveness. you say you are urging a cautious approach, the government will say it is taking a cautious approach but it is taking a cautious approach but it is pressing ahead with the easing of lockdown in england on monday. are you saying that should be delayed, that easing of lockdown in england? i would still use the term cautious. w
