look what happened to lady columbia now. lady columbia with the hat, you see the statue of lady liberty starting to evolve. she is very muscled up. he's handing her the sword. another symbolic gesture is like being knighted. it is like the sword is passed. here is that great seal to the united states. linedecker was the artist for this. he was probably more famous -- he was the guy that did all the ads for arrow shirts. even back in these days, he was making $8000 a month back in those days for his ads. but he took time to do this for his country. it's a beautiful poster. if i were a boy scout again, i would love to have that poster. you see we are saving, we are eating, saving resources. appealing to everyone in the country, even children, to help do their best to save money . you have feel positive to win. you had to have the spirit. here is another sheridan. his work is so lovely to look at . that is what makes them so beautiful. they used to say when you are studying art if you had to make something that was very distast

the district of columbia appealed this. to the circuit court, a three-judge panel overturned the district court's findings. judge brett kavanaugh was one of the three judges on the circuit court panel and he wrote an opinion overturning the finding and this is what he wrote, " consideration of the wishes of patients who are not and have never been competent, is not required by the supreme court's procedural due process cases. shownaintiffs have not that consideration of the wishes of a never competent patient is deeply rooted in this nation's history and tradition." it sounds a little convoluted, let me read it again. these three women have not shown that consideration of their is deeply rooted in our history. of course not. deeply rooted in our history is segregation. institutionalization, history ofour disability rights movement is littered with cases of people who were quote, "never competent." becomingsudden competent with new approaches to the individual's social inclusiveness. the term "never competent," may have more

the district of columbia appealed this to the circuit court. a three-judge panel overturned the district court's findings kavanaugh was one of the three judges on that circuit court panel and he wrote the opinion, overturning the lower court's finding. this is what he wrote. "consideration of the wishes of patients -- listen to this -- consideration of the wishes of patients who are not and have never been competent is not required by the supreme court's procedural due process cases, and that the plaintiffs have not shown that consideration of the wishes of a never-competent patient is deeply rooted in this nation's history and tradition. ." let me read it again. these three women have not shown that consideration of their , that the consideration of their wishes is deeply rooted in our history. of course not. deeply rooted in our history is segregation, isolation, institutionalization and our history of disability rights movement, is littered with cases of people who are "never competent." all of a sudden, becoming "competent," with new approa

i have a concern. 2007, the case came up in the district of columbia cold called d.c.v. women incarcerated in the district of columbia called the mental retardation and adult development disabilities administration. three women who were incarcerated there and who were going to have surgical procedures done to them that ,ere not of an emergency nature and for which they had never given their consent or even been talked to about. the attorney brought the cases up to the district court. the district court, after hearing the evidence and examining the record fund the district of columbia's process thenstitutional, ordered mental retardation development ,nd disabilities administration to attempt to ascertain the known wishes of the patient, which must include documented, reasonable efforts to communicate with that person regarding her wishes. the court went on to say, if after such an inquiry the wishes of the patient are still unknown , the district of columbia must then make a "good faith determination of the best , aerests of the patient determination that requires conside

, parker versus district of columbia came down from the pellet circuit, and the talk about the history of the right to arms, not only the history, it was central to the holding of the case. to the analysis, the legal analysis. and that drew me in, a history major, but, what confused me was, it was all very unfamiliar to me. stuff that to me, intuitively did not add up. however, of course, as any historian would, you start asking questions, how did you come to this, and start doing research. that is how i came to evolve, so i came to locate other misconceptions, things that the court misconstrued, and i began delving i would say about a year and a half, just spending times in the archives looking it up. i came to the conclusion at least as a matter of a constitutional understanding that the right was very incidentally tied to the militia and not necessarily distinct and only apply to individuals for self-defense purposes. as the court comes to that. >> what kind of historical versions do you look at? >> we went to ratification history, which is the ratification debate. the understanding

our investigation ranged from new york to delaware, to maryland, to the district of columbia, florida and california. the fbi responded with every resource we've got. including our joint terrorism task forces, our counterterrorism division, and world-renowned experts in our fbi lab. i can't underscore this enough, we did not act alone. as you can see from agencies and departments represented here today, a threat of this scope and this magnitude requires all of us working shoulder to shoulder. today is a testament to the strength of our partnerships, we -- what we can do when we work together. i want to acknowledge the many partners who help in recovering and transporting the ieds to our lab in quantico. this is dangerous and highly skilled, specialized work, that requires great care. we are grateful to all of those who have helped us in that effort in getting those devices to our laboratory. we can confirm 13 i.e.d.'s were sent to individuals across the country. each device consisted of six inches of pvc pipe, a small clock, a battery, some wiring, and what is known as energetic mater

. >> as someone who is both a law school student, law school professor at harvard, george mason, columbia, nyu, and so on, how have you seen a legal education change in the time since you were a student until now that you're a professor? in what ways has it changed? >> particularly in the last 10 years since the great recession which for the legal profession was a deep depression, the student body is much more career oriented. they want to take classes that with convince employers that they know something. it's understandable. some of it's misguided. it might be a little overdone. the consequence of the number of applications dropping off right after the recession when the recession began was that most law schools accepted very few at the top. they reduced the size of their class. they relaxed their requirements for admission and reduced the size of their class. it became more intimate but now we're growing back. >> is there things we need to do a better job in training the next generation of attorneys and judges? >> you can never stop improving. i think we'll get through this vocationali

representative, after years of planning and $200 million spent by oregon, the columbia river crossingas scrapped five years ago. in the last month, there has been renewed interest from several politicians to revive that i-5 bridge project. do you think the state should billions in invest new money in a bridge between vancouver and portland? rep. buehler: certainly there has been under investment in oregon's transportation infrastructure for decades. our bridges, roads, ports. unfortunately the columbia river crossing project spent nearly $300 million and not a single single up to her wa - shovel of dirt was turned. governor brown did not look into that situation. it was her duty. i voted against the transportation package at the last legislative session because i did not think it had enough investment for these types of important projects, especially for portland metro. i knew also that governor brown's policy was to bake into that legislation tolling. not to build new bridges, like i think we should build a new bridge across the columbia, but tolling to change people's behavior. to g
