a very unique piece designed by peter cooper. what he ended up doing was building something very similar to what was behind us, the tom thumb. while successful by proving a steam engine could operate, it wasn't successful in the manufacturing world. they couldn't turn them out fast enough. ended up failing on his contract, but what he did do was prove that steam power could be used on the baltimore and ohio's track with its sharp curves and steep grades and was a wonderful piece. but when railroading began in the united states, by the 1830's was 23 miles of track in the entire country. in the beginning there were pulling flour, barrels full of flour. that is the kind of produce that was coming from the river valley and that is where a lot of the revenue was coming from. eventually, passenger service picked up, i would not say as an afterthought, but almost as a sideshow. a lot of people thought it was a really cool to travel by rail so that's what they did. what you are looking at is a 1927 reproduction of an emory coach, one of

(laughter) so yeah, they are unique. they are unique. but having beaches is not what makes florida unique. so if you are one of the other coastal states you have every right to be pissed off about florida getting special treatment. especially when you find out the real reason florida got this exemption is because there is a senate election there in the fall. governor rick scott, a republican, is probably going to run for the seat and coastal drilling is wildly unpopular there. yeah. so him getting florida off the drilling list is something he can use to help his popularity which he needs because votedders still remember how he spent a still remembhole movie trying tr rabbit. (laughter) now in case this part of the story doesn't make you mad enough, there might be another reason why florida is unique. one that both the democrats and republicans have noticed. >> mar-a-lago, no one wants to see a rig off the coast of mar-a-lago. >> why does florida get a waiver, was it because the president had mar-a-lago in florida. >> i mean you can't say

i think he's different, i think he's unique. we're all unique individuals.t's his description of it. look, we all know it, the guy isn't like pretty much anybody else. that's unique. that doesn't mean that he's unstable. is it possible you're blowing all of this out of proportion? >> well, every person in the country is unique, undoubtedly. the question is whether or not you are constitutionally capable of executing the powers and duties of the office of the presidency of the united states. you know, we have 535 members of congress. we only have one president, and that person as the president reminded us this week has control over nuclear weaponry and the ability to take the world to war. so this is -- this goes beyond the normal push and pull of the daily political gossip. this goes to the question of the security of the country, the survival of our people and people around the world. so i just think that we need to take our responsibility seriously. there's enough questions that have been raised that we would not be doing our constitutional duty if we don'

it was used by a unique class of newly minted foreign officers in 1950. normally, a new class of officers would go off to various parts of the world, but this class was unique. they all went to the same place. in 1950, they all went to germany. why would they all go to germany in 1950? >> well, there was world war ii. what we are looking at here are really diplomatic efforts in germany because of the political instability in germany. betweeneting forces communism and bringing democracy back to germany. so these officers were trained by using the handbook in a way to promote the american values, but also the values and benefit of having a democratic government as opposed to a communist government. >> and these officers were quite aware that by their own personal example they were representing , america as well. they were instructed quite to not necessarily behave yourself, but recognize that people are watching you because you are an american. the handbook does go into some detail on different programs they were supposed to implement as well as the more bu

or do they use them in a way that is distinct and unique. from what we can tell so far, and it is still relatively new, they are using them in an interesting manner. a couple data points, governor bush mentioned the size of the gardener scholarship program, .hich is florida's esa option they have, i think, 10,500 kids. they are using esa's in that program. kids with special needs, getting about $10,000, roughly, per year. at dataable to look provided -- we were able to look at how families were using their gardener scholarship accounts. the friedman foundation for educational choice still has a big report coming out in february on how families are using them. it has been fascinating to see in florida. options have been around since 2014, a pretty new option. , parents of the gate are using those accounts to fully customize their child's educational experience. we looked at how parents are using those accounts in the past two years, and about 40% over those two years are using their accounts to customize. we loved them together as -- we lumpe

he was not unique in this particular set up and style. this is very reminiscent of a british poster of lord kitchener, a famous british military leader. all of the posters we are standing in front of our original. when you look at the entirety of the poster wall, you will see a variety of roles represented. it takes an entire community to mobilize during the war. there's the image of women and children. farmers, workers in industry. and you will get a chance to see what inspired individuals to becoming gaged in the war effort at the turn-of-the-century. there is much to learn here at this museum, and we have just had an opportunity to share a fraction of it. it has been a pleasure having you here. we look forward to seeing you at the national world war i museum. >> you can watch this or other american artifacts programs at any time by visiting our website, c-span.org/history. >> and now, we continue our look at world war i posters at the national world war i museu

the european union has consistently recognized the unique position of northern ireland and the unique position it finds itself given the decision the england to leave the european union. the majority of ireland voted to remain in the european union, want to remain in the single market. and it's likely that the majority of people living in northern ireland will remain european citizens after brexit because of their unique status under the good friday agreement, which allows them to be british citizens, irish citizens or both. the break through achieved before christmas had means the united kingdom is guaranteed. that whatever the future relationship is, a hardboarder on the island will be avoided and the common travel area and all the associated rights that flow from it will be maintained. as the negotiations move forward in to phase two, we'll continue to rely on your support and solidarity. as we work to insure that what has been promised in theory is delivered in practice. and there can be no back sliding on tis. so it's important that these commitments are fully reflected in the le

one of the things unique to the national world war i museum and memorial is we get the opportunity to tell the global's story,nd we -- global and we get to one of my favorite spaces, the international uniforms. was the- world war i first true global war in what started as the balkan conflicts. ,t quickly engulfed europe expanded to the commonwealths and colonies, and spiraled outward from there. , we get the chance to see uniforms that many don't think of when they think about the world work conflict. in the first case, a japanese infantry uniform of the division that went into the battle at sent powell -- into battle. you might notice the calfskin case on the side of the uniform. we also have the opportunity to highlight the south african scottish kilt. with this, it's actually one of our collections favorite things about in artifact. it can change. as it is presented you see the interior of the kilt. be sure to highlight how this infantry man had modified his uniform. he took a shirt pocket and so did onto the inside of the kilt so he had one more space to carry something. whether i

we uniquely live at that intersection of tech and business. then, as you said, we built, over time, hardware. then, we layered it with software. we built integrated onto that services. and now, as i said, we are him andand now, as i said, we are becoming a cloud and a cognitive solutions company. and there will be another, you know, sort of reinvention of ibm one day in the future again, but today, it is about that. and it is not about "the" technology. it is cloud. it is ai right now. it is the "why." and as i say to all my colleagues, and i feel we are the champion for business. right? the champion for business. i will tell you what i mean by him that. right now, if you ask me to pick one word what ibm is reinventing around, i would tell you it is the word "data." there is gold in that data. and to me, we are on the verge of companies being able to use all that. and this, to me, is for companies go on the offense now him him him companies go on the offense now against startups, against disruption, you do it with that data. and you will need

for the uniqueness of that child. and i would argue empowered with the proper information, parents are the best school district that exists in this country. so what should we do about it? well, this is not a place where washington is going to play an important role. it can be a role for advocacy for sure. but this is a battle fought out in 50 states. and little by little, courageous governors and legislatures are doing this work. whether it's in nevada, certainly in florida largers scholarship program close to 10,000 students where parents can customize the learning experience, it could grow by the way to 100,000 if we had the budget to be able to make that happen. in states that are focused on this for special needs kids and in the case of nevada and other places, across the board for students, things work out. my vision of how this should work is that with the right policies in place, most open system, you would have a half-day perhaps, a mom could pick half day of traditional school or charter school, take an ap ca
