some are up there in central and northern richmond. those can be a number of factors. a lot of times people committing crimes on muni are opportunists. they will see someone with a bac backpack or purse open they will grab and run out of the bus. i believe that is what accounts for a majority of that. the robberies we have had some series when we are asked to do this presentation we ask how you identify trends. if investigators look every morning to see if there are cases that are similar. if thing that is interesting about muni a lot of bus buss buses are going from one area to another and they are riding from one to the next and they are waiting for the opportunity. if that is a trend that we are seeing we look at that as well, and then we speak to chris and he gets us the video, and times m. t. a. gets us the video before we ask because they see an issue occurring. we have had very good success. time of day, a lot of people believe that crime os cur late at night, that is not necessarily true anywhere from noon to 8:00 at night is one the majority of the crimes are

>> think in the house, if you look at barbara comstock in northern virginia and dave bratt around richmondtwo races are important signals, and if the republicans keep both of them, no possibility the democrats get control of the house. if we lose both of them, it could be a really long night. i think they're really central as a weather vane what's going to happen. i think in the senate on the east side, bob huingen is running a great race in new jersey, a long shot race. if he's winning in new jersey election night, it's going to be a really long night for the democrats. mark: let's say he loses and it's close? still a long night? >> potentially a long night. you go further west where karen housley is running against the appointed replacement for al franken and because of the impact of ellison who has all sorts of problems, dragging the entire ticket down and there's a real chance there, and trump's been out on the iron range northern minnesota, there used to be very democrat and now very republican, so minnesota is a state that is a process of really dramatic change, i think, if we win th

everything else they knew and came up with some accurate assessments of what the army of northern virginia was doing in richmond. so it would lead sharp to be able to say that by 1865 that the bmi was entirely familiar with the organization of the rebel forces in virginia and north carolina. with each brigade and division and changes. grant seconded the assessment in 1865 when he told the war department that deserters come in every day enabling us to keep track of every change that the enemy makes. the bmi success of extracting this information from deserters and prisoners led robert e lee to issue an order in which he said, he ordered his men to preserve silence with regard to everything connected to the army. basically saying, shut up when you are in there because you're killing us. the best moment perhaps is charges -- george sharp was in charge of issuing paroles to confederate soldiers at appomattox and it took several days to do. when the confederate officers came through and the men came through they had to stay the regimen, there brigade, where they were from. sharp had the great joy of telling confeder

northern virginia, greater richmond, the hampton roads -- those are places that powered ralph northam to victory in 2017. a lot of other states do not have those kinds of demographics. they are not as upset about the president. in fact, they might like the president quite a bit. they might not have that supercharged democratic electorate we are seeing in these suburban areas. you might not see that kind of effect everywhere. but in a state like virginia, you could see it again. there are several competitive house races in virginia, for instance, where those voters could make the difference. ad fromwant to show an a very competitive house race, virginia 10. jennifer west and running across barbara comstock. >> barbara comstock might as well be [indiscernible] donald trump is against extending medicaid, against coverage for pre-existing conditions, and he sabotaged the insurance market in virginia. barbara can't -- barbara trumpstock agrees. wexton fought -- for those things. have not beents running specifically on trump as much as you might think, but here is an example of clearly runn

you could come up with a regulatory regime that could allow someone to take off in northern virginia and land in richmond, virginia, but much more difficult to contemplate something that would work as a practical matter with the internet. >> that is correct. given the nature of the data services of the internet and the mobility associated with it, it is an area for federal regulation. there may be area where's we need to make sure we are not intruding on state consumer protection rules but privacy for data services, i think it is essential it be done federally. >> thank you. i see my time is expired. >> senator peters. >> thank you, mr. chairman and thank you to all of our witnesses for lending your expertise to us today. i think there is no question that consumers want better transparency and control over their personal information which is why we're here today and i hope that we leave today with a better understanding of what a federal privacy law might look like and how we protect consumer privacy laws so making sure we're not stifling innovation in the process as well to allow the innovation to grow

northern and north central virginia or should you stay down there? if you remove mcclellan's army from the james river, you free robert e lee from the defense of richmond. just keeping them there, if you kept them healthy, or engage in some active military activities and mcclellan kept saying he had a plan that he said he would enact when he got more reinforcements. i've always wanted to know what the mcclellan calculator looks like. because it would multiply whatever answer you had for something you had by 10. and then take away numbers from your own calculations. if i just have more men, i can do something. that story of oliver, please sir, may i have more. and yet, how look offered no alternatives, offered -- suggested to withdraw. we would not have that battle is george mcclellan had been allowed to maintain his position at harrison landing and operate. lee would have had to keep forces down to defend petersburg lee would have had to kept forces down to defend the confederate capital at richmond. and when they discussed matters at other times, hallock was notably helpful. mcclellan could turn to hallock and know that he would not get a meaningful a

the peninsula campaign which brings these northern soldiers to the eastern peninsula to try and capture richmond. is probably the most unhealthy spot in the entire confederacy to try and attack. i mean maybe the mississippi delta can put a challenge to that or one of the places in louisiana here, but the peninsula in eastern virginia is not a very healthy place especially when it rains and this is what happens to his army in the spring of 52. -- 62. needless to say with all of the handicaps he can march his way towards richmond and get to the outskirts of the city by late may 1862. and then something happens to completely change the fortunes of the confederacy and give them a fighting chance to hold out against: it is something that happens over in the valley and becomes known as stonewall jackson valley campaign. let us put this in context why does the valley campaign affect what is happening at richmond. remember i said he had hundred and 10,000 men in his army, mccullen and tended to have more. mccullen into did have 140 250,000 men in his army. but at the last second as he is arriving on the

northern virginia. let's not fight them by having an overland campaign come from .ashington washington where we can approach richmond rather easily. you can cut railroads, but you can't cut rivers. remember, the lincoln administration is always george's plans and ultimately settled on the james river plan. but then again with halleck's visit to mcclellan's headquarters, pulled the plug on that plan and told mcclellan to return, to join up and proceed with the overland campaign of the style lincoln preferred. would argue that he never had a free hand to conduct operations as he wanted and would say he was never given sufficient manpower to implement his plans. grant had the same problem in 1864. again, grant had originally a plan whereby a holding force would keep an eye lee's forces right below the rappahannock wouldline and it penetrate the interior of the old tar heel states and cut railroad connections connecting richmond to the rest of the , liberate slaves who would join the union army and basically great havoc on the confederates and force robert e. in a situation where he might not do very well orflee to nort

richmond reduced it to heaps of smoldering rubble. and the miles of empty works that clearly looped through, such sites mingled uneasily in his mind with the air of those northern commentators. celebrating union victory and toasting the end of the war. maintaining his dutiful characteristic to the end. he doubted the war could ever be effaced by cheap slogans, and as it turned out, he was right. some scholars have posited that civil war veterans emerged from the vault -- the war so traumatized and bitter that immediately after they slipped into a period of hibernation or incubation for at least 15 years. appeared in which they turn from the war, -- a period in which they turn from the war and refused to write about a. this was the point of a important book, hit encourage. that was not the case for haley and a lot of union veterans i think. because in the balance of his life he was annexed by what he had experienced on those bloodsoaked fields. scenes would be fresh in his memory for as long as reason held sway he wrote. forget them i never can, and i never want to. the nation at large would have no such resolve, in the late 19th and 20th centuries. and as we wi

across england and wales, a different story for scotland and northern ireland, but england and wales start where the coldest conditions, richmondreezing. a cold one for the morning commute, some fog across parts of eastern england, around lincolnshire and the east midlands in particular. it is not the same everywhere. scotland and northern ireland, not quite as chilly as it was last night, and into yesterday morning. into the cloud, showery outbreaks of rain straight in across scotland through the day. brightening in the west later. northern ireland fairly cloudy during the middle portion of the day, with the odd shower, and we will see that cloud extend into parts of northern england, threatening a showerfor parts of northern england, threatening a shower for the end of the afternoon. sunshine turning hazy for northern england and wales, but for northern england and wales, but for much of england and wales, a fine day. a fine end to the day in scotla nd fine day. a fine end to the day in scotland as well. temperatures not farfrom scotland as well. temperatures not far from where they should be for the time of year. that zone o

richmond and backup the peninsula. the war goes on and that sort of subject has a effect on morale. it seems the wars almost over and the northerners thinking about after the war and then to have things so dramatically reversed that by september 1861 not only is the war over but robert e lees army is driving into maryland and the invasion that ends in the battle of antietam. that shifts morale and it's crucial. many northerners after that point became more willing to countless radical measures against slavery. had the war ended in the spring of 1862 , almost certainly you do not see the end of slavery in the united states as a result of the civil war. the emancipation proclamation happen september 1862. it essentially said to the rebels, to southerners if you have 100 days until the end of the year to resume your allegiance to the united states and give up this rebellion or any areas in rebellion january 1 1863 or any slaves living in areas of rebellion january 1, 1863 will be free. this is a war measure justified by lincoln's wartime powers as commander in chief. there is speculation in the months in between the announcement of th
