the next year he made his first globe. it was a large, solid wooden ball covered with paper with the continents and countries drawn in pen and ink. if you know anything about globemaking, commercial globes are not solid spheres of wood, but paper mache. the first problem he faced was his limited knowledge of geography and cartography. he made $100 that winter which allowed him to purchase the 18 volumes of the encyclopedia. brittanica, published in edinborough, which was a vast commend yum about the arts and sciences related to globemaking, and there are extensive entries in that encyclopedia on globes, cartography, and various other geographic information, so he is really able to obtain this at a general store relatively close to where he is living. and so my argument here is that encyclopedias are really the archetypal promise of all the recognized knowledge in one place, in one area. and in making that information available through print, even in northern new england. wilson then, with his woodworking skills, constructe

the globe sat in a plexicase. it seems strange that the out of the way place is bradford in the early 19th century that globe making. the first american globes were being made. i left the museum that day really enthralled with the thought of learning more about james wilson. how didhe making? what were the sources of his information? for that matter, not just his information, but inspiration? what gave him the project of being a globe maker at the time? as i learned, others -- and you can see here -- go back. as i learned, others in the lands had tried to make globes. new hampshire shoemaker sam lane made this in 1760. the idea is a misnomer the more you start to look at things. the layers peel back further. however, lane's was not a commercial globe. he made this for his own purposes. he turned a seven inch oak sphere on his lathe. he cut the boundaries and pinned it in a pine table in the form of a milking stool so it could revolve. he used the local materials. the larger goal here of clocks and globes offer con

globe. >> jimmy: why did she call you the punisher? >> because i make these actors and actresses and songwriters and directors like madonna is do publicity and promote their movie. madonna made a movie called "weed" this year we distributed. anybody else makes that movie, joe smith makes that movie, jimmy kimmel directs that movie, it's a four star movie. because madonna's so controversial, she has to work a little harder so she thought i was punishing her. not true. >> jimmy: meryl streep called you god -- >> that is true. >> jimmy: that's -- it's got to be hard to keep your ego in check when meryl streep is calling you god. >> at the 4:00 in the morning the next day, "the artist" also won best comedy so i had to do the "today" show and while she called me god, my four kids were texting and e-mailing me going, ha, ha, dad, you'll pay for this

these devastate the lives of women and men everywhere around the globe. how does this affect you? what relevance does this have today as we sit enjoying lunch at the women's day event? it affects you more than you think. bear with me as i share some statistics. i had the privilege of speaking at the united nations a few weeks ago, a humbling experience. the u.n. has been a leader in establishing the human rights of women. in 1979 that established the convention on the elimination of all forms of discrimination against women. this is designed to protect women. president carter signed the document and send it to the senate foreign relations committee for a vote in 1980. to date, 31 years later, the united states is the only developed nation that has failed to ratify the treaty, putting us and the company of somalia, sudan, iran, and zimbabwe. this past month and the halls of congress, we have seen an attack on american women like never before. instead of a clear focus on the budget and job creation, there has been a concentrated effort to limit women's rights. we have had a major pu

has left a mass around the globe where america has waged war is and set of bases even here in u.s. soil the actions of the military have left a dirty and even toxic mess for a local community as and as it turns out the united states department of defense is the biggest polluter on the planet and as you'll see the mass may just maybe just be too expensive for the pentagon to clean up. the united states department of defense the planet's biggest polluter with hundreds of military bases around the world the department is responsible for more ways than any other company or country this is a consistent pattern of a lack of concern for the environment and for human life and of course that's something that's part of an imperial mindset the problem has persisted throughout history from nuclear testing in the pacific in the fifty's fire. to nato attacks dropping depleted uranium in libya it gets into the water table and it does damage to the kidneys and the liver is very very highly dangerous some countries say they've had enough like japan which is pushing for the ouster of u.s. troops sta

well it is kind of what you see how printing around the globe you see banks everywhere in every single nation in the western world in which the citizens are hugely in debt the banks are hugely in debt as well and they're saying we're so in debt bail us out so yeah exactly right it's a microcosm if you will of the entire global market where you've got folks that are shaking down governments and shaking down the citizens for bail money for mistakes that they made you know the wall street made a bunch of mistakes and they shut down the the taxpayer to bail him out in the u.k. the banks made here. mistakes and they got the government to bail them down in ireland they got the government to transfer all the bank's debts to the government's balance sheet one hundred percent no questions asked they're still paying off anglo-irish debt they're still paying them out so you know there's a lot of developed offense that they'll be paying them off for decades to come max but let's look at the chutzpah happening in europe ok now greece as we know is the center of all these problems because of all the
