i think the first painting i showed you of dewitt also was an ezra ames. so as i described, he set off. for his first stage he had to measure, he had to survey the island because he had to put down this map on paper, and that meant sort of marking out the distances where the streets were going to go and, essentially, coming up with this blueprint. it is pretty clear that it was not randel's idea, the grid itself. that clearly came out of the commissioners. there's guidelines in the 18 to 07 act about minimum requirements for street widths. but he had to actually do the very practical work of figuring out how it was going to sit on the land. and i was trying to give you a sense. it's hard to see, but the grid -- maybe gave you a better -- yeah. you can see the grid starting sort of right, um, what was then north street. it angles up. the old city angles up into chelsea, and then it basically starts on the top third of the map. and randel handed in, he did that work in two years, essentially. he had a lot of trouble as he did this work, and i, i'm sure some

dewitt, it's been a while since you had the podium or the mic.there has been a lot said, i am wondering when you hear this talk about eliminating money bail system. is this something that can realistically happen or were we able to achieve that, there would be a move to reinstate what your organization does? >> let me first off thank you, matt, let me first say i feel like a minority among the panel. but i am not overwhelmed by it. i think we have a little misconception here and what we forget all along, the public, the taxpayers. the bail industry provides a service to the criminal justice system and has here in the united states. we do this without cost of the taxpayers. none of this burden is on the taxpayers. and what i see happening, and i have had discussions with the aclu and pretrial on. it's not a cookie-cutter situation. bail is very personal. to have a policy or government entity responsible for arresting you and adjudicating your case and the sentencing and bail. there no check balances involved in this. i have sat in los angeles and

but the new computer-controlled horizontal mill dewitt operates like the five other new machines here, is different and did not take long to figure out. "i could teach a guy in an hour on this machine. it's a good machine." it's three times faster and cleaner than the water- and stone-based grinder it replaces. it's also easier to operate, and that is how some companies are dealing with the skills gap. "companies are buying machines that are easier to work with. in that sense, it's a jobless recovery." > > if you didn't have a skills gap here, would you have bought these machines? "no." in fact, two million dollars of capital investment now allows one worker at national tool to oversee three machines. in the last year, the company's hired three people and has openings for two more, and that's all because the more computized these machines are, the more similar they become. "this one, we had three days training on it because it's close to the other ones, similar." while automation has increased production as much as 30% on some projects, the company is also cross-training its machinist

sign it no no and i'll yell it at the president, i'll yell it at roosevelt, i'll yell it at general dewitt and it matters. it has to matter. and to me it's the speech i gave him was in part all just drawn from what's happening i think in the country right now in relationship to the war, who is considered patriotic, who is considered a traitor, and the point of a play to me is that it isn't just a museum piece, that in fact it does have relevancy right now and that it does kind of spark a certain amount of controversy in relationship to what goes on now. so that's how things that are happening in one's life feed into it. other things feed into it, too, like my wife and i have been trying to build this house in the berkeley hills for about 5 years so all of that also kind of feeds into the play even though it may not surface in the way the characters are building a house, but it may be something about money that comes up in the play but actually was drawn from our financial struggles trying to build this house in the berkley hills. but it also sort of shows you how real life intrudes into yo

dave dewitt. >> well, i've been a marijuana grower back in the day, in the early '70s. mostly in my basement under just grow lights that were, you know, fluorescent lights, not the fancy ones that they have now. i did pretty good at it, and i had bought a book called "marijuana botany," because there was no grow guide for marijuana in those days. it's not particularly hard to grow, so when i came out here and found out that new mexico was legalizing medical marijuana, i was curious about it because it's part of a national movement that's happening. and so i knew a grower who's older than i am, if you can believe that. and he was licensed, and i tracked his first year of growing anything. it was his first plant he's ever grown, never grown house plants or a garden, and he managed to do a pretty good job in his first year. i sort of helped him out a little bit, and then we tracked his successes, his failures, his triumphs, his disappointments, the whole thing. now there's 20 states and the district of of columbia that have some form of medical marijuana. two states were r

the connections to the survey year generals and upstate albany and the archives and which he tells dewitt when he is in the cities in central state that i showed the maps of he shows life move to the square because it wasn't a good place. would be better elevation. i put the cemetery over here because i would be much better for people to get to an easy year access level ground and he does seem to have a sensitivity to the tauter sea and the landscape and how that should shape the design. he clearly felt he could express that opinion to do it and he clearly had that. there is an interesting exchange. one of the guys that didn't like the grid we have all read about or heard about and he hired randel were consulted with randel. it's not a part of his statement that is often read that she hired him to give judgment on what the city was doing in terms of leveling the streets and he was worried there was going to be flooding and randel agreed with him and said they shouldn't be leveled. it's a very interesting part of that, so she does seem to have some sensitivity to that. >> you say she died

this is jerry dewitt or on twitter he is commonsenseinco, co as in colorado where jerry lives.h warrants were published that showed the shooter at sandy hook element had used extended capacity magazines in his se semiautomatic assault rifle to fire 154 bullets in less than five minutes. when jerry read that yesterday, he then tweeted this photo of himself. he tweeted a bunch of people including lawmakers and people in the news business which is why i saw it. the caption says as a colorado native i began hunting rabbits and pheasants in junior high. in high school i also hunted deer and elk. when i lived in texas i hunted quail and dove and deer. i am 58 years old now. in my lifetime, i have not fired 154 rounds. newtown school gunman fired 154 rounds in less than five minutes. please tell me again why high capacity magazine clips and assault weapons should be legal. this is just one guy. a gun owner taking his own steps on his own time in his own way to push for the possibility of gun reform from his own personal perspective. tonight for the interview we were going to be talkin

. >> next we hear from dave dewitt, author of "growing medical marijuana" and his efforts across america to legalize medical marijuana. >> i was a grower in the 70s, mostly my basement under grow lights that were fluorescent lights. and i did pretty good at it. i used a book to use as my guide because there's no grow guide for marijuana in those states. if a sweet it's not hard to grow. when i cannot hear, i found that new mexico is legalizing medical marijuana. i was curious about it and interested in it because it's part of a national movement that's happening. so why do a grower who's older than i am if you can believe that i'm attracted his first year this occurs underground. he managed a pretty good job. i hope to god a little bit of attractive successes, failures, triumphs, disappointments, the whole thing. there's 20 states now in the district of columbia that have some form of medical marijuana. that's washington and colorado, which of course is our northern neighbor. >> in addition to cease making money, they're making recreational marijuana because the legalize it. so here's wh

the dewitt in the congressional redistricting and as i mentioned in how the parties choose. i think tom is a great body and a very smart and knows a lot about economics i would sit on your brady would be perfect on the ways and means would be good for america and i will put you on the ways and means committee if you promise in advance you are going to stick with the party line on these three or four things. so i guess what i am saying is to make this book even better than it is and it is a superb book it would have to be three times as long as because the problems are not only in the people of our elective and how they believe that it is the system that allows these people to dominate and become official decision makers in washington. so having that thrown in there i would say this is a really good book. it is superb the and i agree with what norm said. given their reputations which are sterling it took a lot of courage to write a book like this and i admire them both for doing it. >> i am such a country and i feel like turning on my friends now. [laughter] i can't do that b
