he spoke about henry clay recently. let's listen to speaker john boehner. >> henry clay was the first, what i call, strong speaker of the house -- the real leader of the house. when our country was founded and the congress was put together, the first speakers over the first 20 years or so came out of the english parliament system. they were more of a referee. they did not have any real power. but clay was the first real speaker of the house that had some power. there are a lot of things you can say about the role of the speaker. henry clay was clearly a very strong speaker. if you look at this time between 1820-1860, there was no one person in the united states more responsible for holding our union together man henry clay. >> by the way, that was from an event that was organized where they invited all living speakers to talk about the role of speakers. it was held here. it is in our video library if you like to go back and watch it. quite an interesting event. to both of you, how did henry clay enhance the powers of th

>>henry: there is a history here? >> yes. >>henry: who is your favorite? >> around world war two, at ding-dongs daddy, he was 5 ft. 2 in., 190 lbs., he had a fascination for women. he kept romancing them and he would marry them and then, he would leave them and then marry and then leave them. he neglected to get divorces. after five years, there were 16 marriages but no divorces. >>henry: let me tell you about the crooks tour. saturdays, 130-3:00 p.m.. >> we are doing tours with schools, stores for seniors, we are doing a business for this week. >>henry: you can visit them online for more information. cindy very much.--thank you very much. janu >> lets talk in little bit more about the wind advisory going in effect at 1:00 a.m. lasting until 8:00 a.m.. thus the strongest winds will be at elevations above 1,000 ft.. downed trees and power lines are a possibility. if you drive a high-profile vehicle, driving could be hazardous. 49ers and the rams today. your 7 day around the bay is showing a lot of sunshine in store. los 60s for the highs, a for forties for

>>henry: that is really nice. if tests >> i like using a cannon like this. >> i like using a paper boat. >>henry: in gift cards are the other things. >>henry: seeking of ways, one of the most wasteful things you can do is give someone a gift they do not want. i love gift cards to. i know a lot of people think if cards are impersonal, but you can do something simple to give them an extra touch. all of these ideas can be purchased at the grocery store. >>henry: give us an example. >> itunes is the most popular gift card. for music lovers we have a rock candy. we have a symphony candy bar. if you're giving someone a best buy gift card, give them the consumer reports magazine said that they can be an informal supper. restaurants are very popular. as the visible the gift card with aid to police also were you can make some homemade salsa. that will be even better. >>henry: basically, make it reusable and personalize the the gift card or giving one and sleaze, did we mention you are not supposed to further trafficker que

but there is still some good news for henry.his loyal customers who hears about the robbery steps in to help the store owner recover his losses. >> i had one of my customers. and he said i got very good job, and john, i know you're a nice man. i see what happen, and he give me $300. i said man, you don't have to do that. he said no, i'm happy to do it. >> henry, who has been robbed twice before says this incident definitely stands out from the others. >> he was very polite. very polite, very friendly, and this is why i open a conversation. i get robbed before, and you see people who robbed you. he was so in your eyes. he don't know how to manage his life and he want to survive. he doesn't know the right way to survive. >> but this robbery goes to show you that minding your p's and q's can only take you so far. breaking the law, even politely, can still land you behind bars. >>> coming up, these guys will do anything to escape authority. >> out of the corner of my eye, i caught him already halfway out my window. i knew what he wa

henry clay, i've learned, heard patrick henry speak in virginia as a young man. abraham lincoln gave the eulogy at clay's funeral. lincoln formed the republican party. the report -- the republican party was saved in 1960 by getting it back together. john roberts is seen as this -- in this series as consoling charles evans hughes. that is so enriching. >> richard norton smith, we were watching the thomas dewey interview. the is not the interview of your dream. he was saying no, no, no. what was or at reaction? -- what was your reaction? >> a lot of people ask me about it. the last question -- he and his brother seemed to be so detached from the events that had engulfed their lives, everyone thought there were going to live in the white house. it did not seem to really be part of their dinner conversation. the only response i have -- i recently did a project on gerald and betty ford and i talked to the four children. the remarkable thing is, in the summer of 1974, they may have been the only family in america that did not have the dinner table conversation about wh

so henry and his crew continue on looking for victims.le, only a mile away, another team of rescuers is trying to reach salvador pena. >> a concrete beam came right across his legs. he's still down there, conscious. he's talking but his legs are completely crushed. i can hear him moaning right now. >> pena is on the first floor of a mall parking deck operating his sweeping truck when the quake strikes. and now the entire concrete structure is on top of him. >> we have no idea if we'll even come close to getting to him. >> firefighter ray labayae struggles through the mangled metal and busted concrete to make contact with the victim. >> he is holding his own. his legs are cracked mid-femur there. definitely a lot of pain. >> the whole time he's, get me out of here. i just conversed with him the best i could to try to give him some hope. >> but others aren't as hopeful. the victim is pinned very deep under the pile of rubble and it will take a huge effort to get just one man out using resources rescuers could use on more people in other pla

at least the adviser, the top is henry kissinger. he was looking for richard nixon. nixon didn't trust the state department. he very much wanted to. he found a partner and so increasingly in the beginning he would resurrect the meetings like eisenhower and have an open process everybody to argue but it would be structured so he could creaky decisions. and we did some innovations in terms of i would like to see where the tree to reach a consensus on policy. and on nixon they are supposed to reach a consensus all the options were so the president could to one of them and not be buried under a bureaucratic consensus. they did that for a while but she really didn't like high level meetings with people shouting at each other and challenging the view of the president. he found himself in a particular problem but he couldn't sort of feast on somebody even with a president to say i've heard you and i'm not doing that and support you to do what i'm doing which is this. he couldn't their fourth basis he have the option with retreating from the problem had his -- the most probl

we looked at the henry hotel. we got video from december 23. and lo and behold, every word of what our clients were telling us were true. two four two. the videos are just a small sample of what some would say is clearly a culture or pattern. and i do want to say that even in my short tenure as defense attorney, i agree with stuart. there are so many good officers, but there are cultures that develop within certain units. i will put it right out there. many of the complaints we hear it involve plainclothes units, and perhaps there is a culture that develops and allows misconduct to happen and continue to happen. so, the public defender's role is unique and natural and i am confident that had we not been doing our jobs with respect to those brought residents of the henry hotel, those would never have surfaced and perhaps the officers would never have had to answer for that conduct. [applause] >> i would like to ask a question and anybody can answer this. you brought up this culture that sends to -- seems to bring it misconduct on. what is it abo

henry kissinger. dr. kissinger, thank you for joining me. i suppose the obvious question for you with all your experience in this particular region is how dangerous do you think north korea really is in the global scheme of things? we don't know much about the country. we don't know much about their nuclear capacity really. in your sense of what you've heard about it, what do you thing? how dangerous is north korea right now? >> north korea as a state has a considerable blackmailing capability because they have a large concentration of artillery aimed at the city of seoul, which is the capital of south korea, and has a very large population. so they could inflict huge casualties. as a state in a normal military conflict, the only strength of north korea is it capacity for suicidal measures, but not for sustaining a long range conflict. i don't think that north korea as such can go beyond certain limits if china, the united states, japan, russia and south korea can come to a common position. and i would think that the most important objective

henry, i'll start with you. every financial security in the world posted to enexchange, traded publicly, it becomes a more transparent, it becomes a narrower spread, means it's cheaper and easier to transact in, and we have this one market, which happens to be the largest market on planet earth, that is traded in complete blackness with no capital required if you're a aaa financial institution. is there any possibility benefit to keeping that market in the blackness? >> not unless you work on wall street, which is a huge benefit, obviously, there. no, they obviously should be regulated, they should be disclosed, first and foremost, so we can actually assess how much risk is at stake. that's what killed us in the financial crisis. we had no idea what the collateral requirements were for, who had bet what, and so forth. you just can't know. so they obviously should be disclosed. >> why, barry, is having an exchange, or any any marketplace, so beneficial? >> well, a number of reasons. keep in mind that swaps and ot

henry alvarez can speak to that. but we're very enthusiastic about our renewed partnership with the housing authority. we have been working together for years, but this is something concrete they can have an impact in the near term and long term for homeless families. the other side of the approaches and we have been doing for years. i know you have been involved in it, the development of our rental subsidy programs for families using local dollars. we're very gracious for the family for stepping up last week to the reached out to us and ask how they could help. the answer was fairly quick, expand the rental subsidy program, as well as move in assistance in case management as well, sort of looking at the successes we had in our programs that are currently administered by hamilton, compass, catholic charities, and general housing clinic. they have had success. the biggest barrier to housing, the biggest cause of homelessness among families is income, and lack of income to afford housing, particularly in high-cost city

better than even patrick henry or james madison. and that's saying something because thomas jefferson said that patrick henry was the greatest orator of all time. and that is amazing for jefferson, who truly hated patrick henry. the man was bad mouthing him to his family when he was in his grave for two decades. that doesn't seem very gracious to me. i was personally swayed by james i retail probing analysis of the constitution north you want to first convention but it had to. and also thought his leading opponent, judges in the spends, on good good, and above all there was a langston smith without whose efforts the new convention would probably not have voted to ratify, and his friend and fellow congressmen, nathan dane of massachusetts who said to smith, some of the wisest, most statesmanlike political council i have encountered in all my readings. that there were so many such men itself significant but it shows that the country was not dependent on a handful of great men. the united states had indeed -- had a deep bench and i was
