Friday night for a couple hours and welcomed the director of the hartford Va Regional Office as well as the director of the Va Connected Health care system to listen to our veterans, and not just about the delays, but the more fundamental gaps in care that we have right now that we are all working hard to fill. Just one example, k. Robert lewis, a veteran Service Officer from the veterans of foreign wars, shared with the audience very compellingly his understanding that many veterans with the vf...

Surviving forts with dale floyd from the National Park service. Right now were in the museum which has a variety of different artifacts. One of the nice things is we have a map of the fences of washington and gives you a good idea of where they are today. Fences of washington and gives you a good idea of where they are today. And today we are also going to go to fort foot which is down here. And all the way up to fort stephens which is up there. The reason that the forts were built was basically...

Guns within the fort. They started building it very early and kept working on it and changing it to the place where it was eventually the fifth largest. You had basically during the war green guns and black guns with bronze and the iron. Usually the bronze was smooth ore and the black guns were rifled guns. And the rifled guns, of course, had a better range and actually fired better. But a gun like this was a good antipersonnel weapon. There were various types of ammunition you could use in this...

That makes me feel any better in whether or not the stop was racially motivated. Can a stop ever be respectful . Or can that interaction ever be respect vl between me and an officer. So i think that there are really two levels to react to those kinds of policies and practices. One is the individual style. And, as sam walker mentioned when people are talking about why they are upset about these stops, they most frequently talk about disrespect, humiliation, insults. Irrespective of whether a Poli...

Thank you. Tracy is next followed by sue. Thank you so much for your comments. I wanted to first point out before i ask you a question. It was really gratifying for me to hear how much the comments of mr. Winkler and mr. St. Germane were congenial to the ideas and theory offered about procedural justice.

When republicans regain the senate this fall and when republicans regain the white house in 2016, it will not be enough simply to cut Government Spending in washington. I think it is incumbent on our party to promote policies that will permanently reduce the size and scope of the government and restore to the states the resources and a news survey on navigators and brokers. Navigators and brokers help people sign...

Do the kind of Risk Assessment that you did as an officer. To ensure that the presence of an officer might not be needed but we can help support those students who might be making some of the wrong choices. I certainly feel that there needs to be more. I think training is provided to educators. I was with an educator for 17 years. He was a teacher. I think because he also came from a similar community that a lot of young people came from, young people were able to relate to him. Also i think tra...

My reaction to it. I have been on a number of different venues and programs, so keep your eyes open. Host do you want to talk about your relationship with fox news and some of the viewers concerns . Guest i was a fox news country bitter until a few months ago contributor until a few months ago when we mutually decided since theres a possibility i might be running for office, he probably would be good for me to sever that tie. Do i still appear on their from time to time . Of course, but i appear...

Me a concern. Not that i dont trust people but it seems like it should be accurate. Okay, thats something i will follow up with the agency regarding. Out of curiosity, it calls out in the outcome objectives 75 of all facilities will be visited on a quarterly basis, that would be two visits and same for the [inaudible] facilities. The baseline from the previous thing is that we require at least one visit to one board and care home every year so weve added this in as part of the increased performa...
