in this panel, we have a depiction of george washington moving west. what is interesting about it is the image of lewis and clark here is in black and white, something that is occurring in the future, painted as though it was in the past. what is interesting about it is the very obvious conclusion of slavery. the number of students were expressing unease around some of the themes. the additional mural would be placed in the school, one with more positive representation of the student body. in 1974, they completed three panels that were placed in the library -- in the lobby. they depict native, latino, asian american, and african- american heritage and culture. >> that artist was talking about the history coming alive. that is what we want for the students here. i also think they might share that with past alumni and the community, so they could no the treasure that we have here in the schools. many people have the same experience i did when i first walked into this building three years ago, being the new principal. the grandeur of these murals is fanta

once again, here's david martin. >> reporter: the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier "george washington" got under way from yokosuka, japan, earlier this morning. not to aid in relief effort bus to save its from radio active contamination. the decision to send the "george washington" to sea even though one reactor is down for repairs, came in response from a shift in the wind which is blowing increased amounts of radioactivity south of tokyo toward the american bases at yokosuka and atsugi. the winds threatened to dump as much radioactivity in the next 24 hours as in the preceding ten days. navy officers decided they could not allow the "george washington" to absorb even low levels of radioactive contamination for the indefinite future. at $4.5 billion, it's one of the navy's most valuable ships and the fear is that radiation would be sucked into the ventilation system and leave it contaminated for the rest of its service life. as for the service members left ashore, potassium iodide pills which defend the body from radioactive iodine has been issued to all hands and their families. and

i'm a senior at george washington high school. i came address the tax exceptions. it would mean noerly 8 students would laernd grow in washington. i wasn't pursuing an educational career. now i've met inspoiring teachers. they both inspired me personally. if those tax exceptions don't go through, washington will barely be able to build the process. i'd like to p.l.o.ed the board members out here to pass the tax exceptions to go through. thank you for your time. >> thank you. good evening, e. a lot of consequences affecting students. some of the concerns we have is there will be fewer teachers for sure. a lot of different classes. allowing student it's pursue their interest and passions and barely covering requirements. this will definitely require students that want to go to a very good school. as a senior right now. >> could you state your name? >> virginia lee. >> thank you, virginia . >> good evening. i'm a seen juror at george washington high school. i've met many teachers who have helped inspire and guide me. they've helped keep me safe. if these features get c

george washington of the united states. sas eating your enemy supreme leader is nothing new the president abraham lincoln what was new was the car. parked in the right place packed with enough explosives you can target any man on earth. kings and presidents have to drive the roads just like the rest of us and the moment you do your vulnerable. car bombs are so easy you can use them purely for business if your business is controlling the world's heroin supply. in the early sixty's sicilian mafia discovered a new way to make rival mafiosa disappear by poofy trapping their cars and blowing them to pieces. in sicily the power of the mafia is as old as the statute. five million people live here. but hidden amongst them is an estimated seven thousand mafia members. yet the power of the cosa nostra is felt everywhere from the highest political office right down to the smallest market stall. this market is the positive here. so we how do you know the mafia is here. because. the two hundred plus miles to the finish you call those. t

george washington carver. last year, we were told that our principal was going to be fired but now -- 50% of our teachers. why are we getting rid of 50% of our teachers but you save our principal? thank you. [applause] >> good evening. my name is imman robinson harris. i have plenty of hats but my hat tonight is carver, volunteering there since she's been in kindergarten. this is my niece. early 2010, maybe around this time, i was told that carver would be a transmission -- transformation school and we'd be getting rid of our principal. got news before the school started that we became a turnaround school. i was very surprised because here at this board meeting me, my niece right here, and my mother were the last ones here and i was told we were going to be a transformational model, not a turnaround model. i'm very confused about that still. our current principal has made a lot of promises. and i have yet to see him live up to any of them. can i trust the sfusd board to come out to carver and examine our strug

that george washington cut down the cherry tree and did not tell a lie. nothing could be further from the truth. because if we were taught history we would know about the great and wonderful people called african-americans and how much they gave and sacrificed to build this country and leave a rich legacy of -- to all of us. not just black folks, to everybody. this country was built by africans, yngsdz and americans. we came here in 1619, one year before the mayflower. we did not come here as enslaved people. we came as indentured certify vanlts just like whites did and the people of jamestown were starving until black folks came there in 1619 and showed them how to grow tobacco. any time y google it, because we're in that age. do you know in 1624 euro and isabella johnson had their first child. it wasn't out of wedlock, they were married. william tucker, 1624. i want you to know that we are just full of myths. we are full of myths and we bought them all and what we have do is to say that we're not going to deal with it. how many -- who told the colonies

we want to go to the emergency room of george washington. >> that's a roger. >> go to george washington fast. >> reporter: dr. joseph giordano was in charge of the e.r. >> when they brought him in the emergency room, he collapsed. there was no discernible blood pressure. we knew that he lost 40%, 50% of his blood volume. a couple of more minutes i think he would have crashed. i don't think he would have survived, to be honest. >> reporter: shelly fieldman was nbc's cameraman. >> there were people who were not press standing alongside of us, behind us. >> reporter: in fact the gunman, john hinckley, was right next to him. >> i saw him holding the gun with two hands and then a bunch of people jumped him and it was like a pyramid of people on top of him. >> reporter: a d.c. policeman and a secret service agent were also injured, but no one as seriously as white house press secretary james brady, shot in the head. today brady was back in congress, calling for more controls on guns and visiting the president. >> tell him i was happy to see him. >> reporter: ronald reagan's presidency and pre

also in the treaty of tripoli in seventy ninety one as i'm sure you know george washington john adams said explicitly the us has nothing against islam and these were our first three presidents and no one wrote the declaration of penance one helped write the constitution how can you say that they were against islam in pro procreation. well number one thomas jefferson illustrates perfectly my point here for jr wanted to provide specific religious protections who are going to assume that they were absolutely free to do that there was no prohibition against profile providing special protections in state constitutions so jefferson's. stance the religious freedom perfectly illustrates my point when it comes to the treaty of tripoli we do understand that people need to go all expression there because what it said is this is not a christian nation in the sense that it is not in a possibility group the islamic doesn't in the us i've read it when i read this afternoon. ok well let me finish my thought here this was in contrast to the religion of islam which does have an innate hostility toward

i am a senior at the george washington university. there was a point where you started anchoring world news tonight when you're also working on anchor in good morning america. i wondered how you managed to do both at the same time. >> really grouchily. [laughter] after 11 years at good morning america, it was sometimes a physical achievement just to make it out in the morning. it was six different wake up calls. i'm just bone tired. sometimes i think i cannot make it through a day, an interview -- some of you have seen me as recently as today. i think, canada. and, by george, when i get their hands -- i think, i cannot do it. and, by george, when i get there, it is just better than a beach wilts shock. i had just come up from south dakota. we stayed up all night, came back, went to japan, stayed up all night every night, came back, and it was libya. and then came into work in the weekend on libya if he did not like the material, i do not know what you would do. >> ask for a raise.
