is not implausible they might repeat the wendell willkie phenomena in a you will see how that plays out. >> a couple things to my answer. there is no reason politics shouldn't be entertaining. i think part of the reason politics gets regarded as a dreary civic duty is because we treated that way classwork of political coverage should be boring as you should read it because you have to end take your medicine and i don't believe that. i think it should be interesting, it is a great story. it is a great narrative, great drama, the cast of characters is fascinating and so i don't have a problem with politics being entertaining and it was ever thus to some extent, people have always looked to their leaders to give them some bread and circuses, to enliven their dreary lives. it is all entertainment, we are all trying to fill the minutes before we draw with sums of antidote to boredom, bought the tickets, entertainment, what is the difference? >> this is a depressing panel. >> and i would say also that the issues where donald trump has taken positions, what he has done is pointed out the divis

good morning to you, wendell. >> good morning. how are you? >> great, thank you. as you know, choosing gifts can be difficult, especially for men. what's your advice for getting gifts for guys? >> guys definitely like things that they can actually use. they like things that are part so i know everybody likes head sets. i'm a fitness addict. i'm always at the gym, listening to music, working out, taking work calls. i'm always on my phone, whether i'm rushing to work, rushing through an airport, music going. so head sets are a great things. the lg tone series does it all. sleek and well designed. they rest comfortably on your neck. they have retractable ear buds. and the volume jog and google voice controls are right there on the head set. the best part also, they work with blue tooth enabled smart phones, whether it's iphone or andrade. you don't have to stress what kind of phone do they have. then for all those audio files out there, the lg tone ultrasaid set has signature sound technology while the other model has harmon carden. they deliver excellent sound. all

by the way, i knew oliver wendell holmes and he told me that many times.litical crap, it's exactly right, and his other point is, look, this is an industrial age tax system at 40%. he has a fiduciary responsibility to his shareholders to increase profits and value, and if that means cutting the tax bill in some way, shape, or form, so be it, but as he said, apple pays a ton of taxes anyway. let's change the tax code. >> and i think jared, fundamentally you agree with that idea that the way the tax code is structured right now, it causes companies to arbitrage the rates. what would you have us do? >> well, first of all, no question that both apple is a major tax avoider, not tax evader. nothing they're doing is illegal and i think tim cook is probably right when he says they pay what they owe. the problem is they owe so much less than a domestically sourced corporation that they have a huge tax advantage by having all these multinational schemes going on, and they are schemes, but they are legal. so, for example, what apple does is it books its profits in v

as oliver wendell holmes wrote about his local graveyard in cambridge, massachusetts -- it slowly disappears. the mosses creep, the gravestones lean. these decaying monuments have what he calls age value. allowing them to trigger metaphysical ruminations. yet in the cemetery, the age into conflict with a need to remember and preserve and keep the name alive as the ancient egyptians used to say. as he has taught us, this imperative to preserve the name is the foundation of mortuary culture. in the midst of this rural cemetery's picks rest -- picturesque decay, is a radically different landscape. a field occupied by nearly identical clean white headstones set up right at a uniform height in perfectly aligned rows. the cemetery around it seems haphazard and diverse, this particular lot down in the so-called flats, as they call them, is a much more regulated and uniform landscape. the gleaming marble stones catch the surrounding light. which as it soon becomes apparent is the defining focus of this installation. in the center of the plot of 300 graves is an eroding sandstone war memorial from th
