very norton was one of them. she was constantly urging women to be involved in politics, to be involved outside the home, even when the war ended. she feared that might contract again and women would be kind of forced back into a domesticated role. one of the prominent people who serves in the 1940s is ellen douglas. we have a picture of her here from that time period. douglas was well known to constituents. she represented a district that encompassed part of los angeles california. she was known nationally. she was a star of the stage. she was married to melvin douglas the actor. she became involved in california politics and was a progressive and began to speak a lot on behalf of democratic candidates. she won election to the house for a couple of terms in the 1940s. she was not really a legislator per se. she was not introducing a lot of bills. she was not what we would call a legislative entrepreneur. but she was a spokesperson for progressive issues. so she would often come on to the floor and talk about imp

my first book for norton was a whaling vote. i had written six or seven books before that for major publishers. the proposal for my look was all of 100 pages long various detailed outlines of the chapter and what happens since i've stayed with norton for six books they have gotten to know me and they trust me more so my proposals have overtime gotten shorter and shorter. my actual proposals for the hurricane book weighed in at 17 bold-face pages so was more like an essay of what i thought the book was going to be about. i had a rough idea of some chapters so you have to have a map in order to get someplace but my map has become less and less detailed overtime and blood like to think that's in part because i've gotten better at this process and i know more quickly under the things things that i want to talk about in the book and what direction i want the book to go. and we talked about researching. it's changed tremendously. when i was starting in the late 1990s i was almost always in a specialized library to get the information

oliver wilcox norton is another example of that. there is an interesting correspondence about chamberlain. speare starts to refer to chamberlain's egotism and shares this one story with norton and it was at college commencement when chamberlain was present. all the students and faculty are sitting in the auditorium , and chamberlain walks in and he goes down the center of the aisle and speare and stevens turn and whispered to each other . and they say in a hushed tone, there goes the man that took little round top, and chamberlain heard this and he stopped, turns to students and says something to the effect of, yes, i took it and held it too. speare overheard this and wrote to norton, it seemed as though chamberlain was spewing from the dead. he should have stopped and said no that the title belong to st rawn. >> that is a great way to end. >> each week, archival film from public issues. >> have you ever asked yourself this question? why do postal clerks get into session -- indigestion? there are a lot of reasons. >> i guess that is

and jim norton goes, "remember the time he bombed at your birthday party?">> jimmy: wow. >> the guys traveled the world eight times since then probably, and it still brought an ugly energy to both of them that's how bad it was. >> jimmy: what was so bad about it >> i just went up there. and i was planning on, you know, i had this big plan. she just told me to go up and do an impression of de niro and leave. but i was like ralph kramden, "no, i'm going to -- i'll do more than that." she's like, "all right i mean, he knows what he's doing, he's a comedian." >> jimmy: were not asking for more >> i don't know what i'm doing yeah, i was roasting him the crowd didn't know. i told her, don't intro me which is another amateur mistake. of course, nobody knows who i am i go up, and i start trashing him, making roast jokes. and they're in the middle of dinner, jimmy. it's not even dark out it's light out so everybody's there so, robin williams, i leave soaked in shame at the end i walk outside, but it was slightly raining, and i had this new cashmere shirt on the hange

. >> what happened, you're right, evolved immuno level to my first book for norton was this whaling book. they did know me from adam. i had written six or seven books before that but they had not been large press, major publishers. the proposal for my whaling book was almost 100 pages long, very detailed, outlined in the chapter. what's happened since i stayed with norton for six books now, they've got to know me, they trust me more. my proposals have overtime gotten shorter and shorter. my actual proposal for the hurricane book i think only weighed in at about 17 doublespaced pages. it's more like an essay of what i thought the book was going to be about. but behind that i had a rough idea of the chapters that are used for my purposes. so you have to have a map in order to get someplace, but my map has become less and less detailed overtime, and i'd like to think that is in part because i have gotten better at this process and i sort of no more quickly what are the things i want to talk about in the book and what direction do i want about to go in. that you talked about researching. it'

with that, i turned it over to norton. the launch review went very well and we echo that. onpping back and reflecting demo two and the development cycle to the operational cycle just with the journey leading up to this and the lr and it was really evident there was great improvement on the closed outwork the less openwork there was the overall readiness level. , ands very encouraging absolute focus on crew safety and vehicle safety which both the nasa and safety teams have done a great job with. of a dayhe heels yesterday to let the crew suit up and let them try out their vehicle. when major the fit was right to be a tweaked up part of launching and it went very well. had an opportunity to meet with the crew this morning and talk a little bit about the upcoming launch. and were absolutely excited you could feel the radiant excitement coming off of them. when i walked out of that briefing i was excited myself. i could just feel the energy from the crew and we feel that throughout the team. it is great because we are real close and ready to go which is very. -- important. th

my first book for norton was the wailing book writing six or seven books before that and the proposal very detailed outline of the chapters they trust me more so my proposal over time has gotten shorter and shorter. with those 17 doublespaced pages it's more like an essay of what i thought it would be about i had a rough idea for my purposes. so you have to have a map to get someplace and i like to think because i had gotten better at this process and we know more quickly the thing i want to talk about in the book and what direction. so it has changed tremendously when i started writing books in the late 19 nineties, what is almost always at a specialized library to get the information that i needed. was taking a lot of notes which was a problem for me because i flunked handwriting in elementary school with very poor handwriting and i don't write fast using a typewriter was good back then for what has happened in the last ten or 15 years is the entire seachange. allowing you to access any book written before 1923 on almost any topic but one of the major research institutions around th

we had an outbreak in my husband's home county of norton, kansas, in a small nursing home where 61 of the 61 patients were positive. they've already had 10 deaths, they've got staff positive, and there's no place to send people in that surrounding area. i mean they're trying to move very ill patients in regional areas, but unlike a natural disaster where if it hits -- a tornado hits in our state, you borrow equipment. you get personnel. you get help. this is everywhere, and it's really terrifying in communities that just don't have the capacity or the staffing. >> that story is really awful, and it's something that i think we're going to see more of. to me, it also shows just how intellectually bankrupt the notion is, which i think has been pushed by scott atlas and adopted by the president, that you can let it spread and just deal with it on the treatment end, right? that if the hospitals get better treatment and we get better at figuring out how to help people, that we could backstop it there and just let it spread. and what you just said, the hospital capacity you had, all that tre
