Overhead Sewer Systems can be the best way to waterproof your home in some cases. The basic way the system works is to raise your sewer line higher than the water level in the city sewer can ever reach. By doing this, all basement drains will now run into a pump pit. The 2" ejector pump will discharge basement waste water above and drop into overhead system. The start of the overhead sewer will have a clean out installed for future access to main sewer line. Cast iron piping will be installed through foundation wall to connect to main sewer line. From there the line will run to the city sewer and connect somewhere in the street.

In granting the Order, the Court found that "immediate, substantial, and irreparable harm will result" to the child before a full hearing could be held.
FROM WRIGHTSLAW: Good question: How are eligibility decisions made?
Your position is that your child has a disability AND that your child needs special education.
The school's position is that your child has a disability but does NOT need special education.
Most eligibility disputes involve disagreements about whether a child with a disability needs special education services, not whether the child has a disability.
Here is a game plan to help you resolve this dispute. Although you won't be able to resolve EVERY dispute with this plan, many disputes can be resolved by taking these steps.
understand the power of school culture.
1. Ask your child's pediatrician or neurologist for recommendations about educational evaluators.
2. Contact a university, child development clinic, and /or children's hospital, and ask if they do educational evaluations on a sliding fee scale.
In dealing with the school staff, parents are negotiating for services. Here are two books that will get you off to a good start. Each of these books is helpful in different ways.
" HOW TO ARGUE" is NOT about arguing. "HOW TO ARGUE" will teach you how to present your case effectively, using story telling and visual imagery. " HOW TO ARGUE" is one of Pete's favorite advocacy books.
Parents must learn to document their concerns in writing. If you make a statement or share a concern about your child BUT you don't put your concerns in writing, then for practical and legal purposes, you did not express concerns.
EVERYDAY LETTERS will help you write effective letters. The book includes sample Parent-School letters that you can adapt to your situation.
These findings became a rallying point for parents of disabled children around the country.

No need to send out an ABP on me. I haven't been abducted by aliens and I didn't run away to join the circus (although both options would be quite the adventure and the circus has crossed my mind more than once in the last 3 weeks…) I have been travelling with work and unable to sit down and properly fill you in on my life as it happens.
I could say life's been "busy" but you'd be like "no guff, everyone is busy and hasn't busy become the norm now, so that's no excuse". And you are right, who doesn't go to bed and suddenly remembers that they forgot to email someone back or spends the night tossing and turning because they forgot to pick up toilet paper and hoping there is enough tissue paper in the box, in case it really was the last roll. I don't buy in bulk so yes, this is a frequent concern of mine. There just isn't enough hours in the day for anyone so telling you I've been busy just isn't going to fly. Instead, I'm going to pretend that we are having brunch and do a Q&A recap to fill you in.
How's work? Fantastic! Just had our national alignment meetings in Montreal last week. Finally feel like I have an understanding of what my role is and really excited about my new projects for the year. I'm also going to be taking wine classes because well, it's part of my job!
How's Stella & Dot? Has been on the backburner this month but just got my new samples and they are so nice! No really, there are some really great pieces so check out my site!
You still working for KIND? Heck ya, I love the bars and the shifts have been so much fun.
How's the family? Dad's doing great but Mom got pneumonia. She was hit bad but luckily she is on the road to recovery. M & N are excited about moving into their new home next weekend. G & T are trying to decide what day to go and pierce Little Lu's ears, or at least I hope that's what they are doing because they seem to ignore every text I send out about her getting her ears pierced. I will not let this die and my niece will thank me in the future when she comes over and raids my S&D stash!
You still have the cats? Yes and the cat hair is driving me bazooka bananas! I can't stand it. I tried to give them back but the shelter has already taken in too many animals and they are busy trying to change the by-laws so that owners can't leave their dogs out in extreme weather. It's actually amazing work that they are doing so you should head over to their facebook page and read how you can support them: go on, I'll wait! I'll suffer (I say that loosely because the cats are very lovely) awhile longer with the cat hair if it means that there is one less dog left out in the cold. But I'll tell you, I won't become a crazy cat lady, crazy maybe but no cats in this lady's future. Unless they are hairless but I don't want a cat that looks like a rat.
How was the eat clean challenge? (in my head I'm wondering how talking about cats leads you to clean eating but out loud I respond) Really good! I actually enjoyed making myself dinner and have made some of the meals again. Will try to cook more often now that my travelling is over.
You hair looks different? Oh thanks, I think. Different as in good or different as in bad? Just different. Ya, I attempted to dye it red myself, I think what you are seeing is that I didn't fully distribute the colour and it looks like very oddly placed highlights. It's suppose to wash out in 28 washes. 4 down, 24 to go.
What book are you reading? I just finished Imposter Bride by Nancy Richler. Was pretty good. Maybe if I had read it at a less "busier" time it would have been more interesting but it didn't really grab my attention. But I wanted to finish it and find out what happens so it wasn't all bad.
What are you reading next? Going to read the Book Thief. I've read great reviews about it.
Have you been going to the gym? OMG, Did you see this tweet about Justin Bieber getting arrested!
I show you my phone and with that you walk away. Brunch over.
Preparing to form a habit!
Tomorrow is the first day back to work after a restful holiday. I am not a morning person and I'm not a winter person so I know the hardest part will be waking up early tomorrow and trekking out in the snow that has been consistently falling since this morning.
I am however excited to get this year started. The last 5 years have been a bit of a struggle, whether I've been dealing with my dad's illness, my self-inflicted unemployment or my never ending struggle to get my life in order, there is always something that has been weighing on my shoulders. In life there are rough waters and calm seas so I'm happy that the last couple of months have been a bit of smooth sailing. Life is always full of surprises so I know that I must take advantage of this time in my life by focusing on getting into some healthy habits that will help keep me sane the next time that the waves get a little choppy.
One of my 2014 intentions is to start being greener and healthier. I want to be more aware of the foods that I eat and of the products that I use. I'm the first to admit that I never read the labels on anything so this will probably be an eye-opening experience. Since January is the month to kick start healthy eating habits, I eagerly signed up for a 6 day eat clean challenge that was posted by a blogger I follow.
They say the key to staying on track is to prepare so today I bought all the ingredients and rolled up my sleeves to get everything ready for the week. It actually felt good to clean out the fridge and my cupboards. I had a box of shake'n bake in there from 2011 so it was long overdue. It felt even better when prepping everything turned out easier than I had stressed it would be. By far the easiest was the protein bars that I can make ahead and snack on through out the week.
Step 3 – flatten the mixture in a square tray and put in freezer for 3o mins and Voila!
and the best part was that they actually taste good!
With my lunch made, tomorrow's dinner already prepared and delicious homemade protein bars in case of hunger, I am excited to start the challenge and see what other healthy habits will stick this year.

The Coolest CEO on the Street? That's Gotta Be AMD's Lisa Su
With Su's track record of turning around this tech company, she's a star of the industry a reason to play the stock.
By STEPHEN GUILFOYLE
Stocks quotes in this article: AMD, INTC, MSFT, SNE
What is cool? Fonzie was cool. Some folks are born cool, others either play catch up, or what is considered to be cool catches up to them. There are those that can guarantee the Super Bowl as an underdog and then back it up. Joe Namath was cool. Others can hit a jump shot in the clutch. Clyde Frazier. Nobody was cooler. How about Gene Simmons? Dress up like some kind of monster, hit an A-chord that cracks the ribs of those sitting up front and get 25,000 right arms pumping fists in the air. Now, we bring cool to the next level.
Not a lot of folks can take over a struggling semiconductor firm trading in the low single digits, and within four years lead that firm to the best stock price performance for the year across the entire S&P 500. Then -- wait for it -- repeat as champion in year five. Yeah, Lisa Su, of Advanced Micro Devices ( AMD) is that kind of cool. In a class all by herself. Shares of AMD ran 73% higher in 2018 as the S&P 500 gave up 6%. AMD ran 148% in 2019, as the S&P 500 gave us 29%. Three-peat? Impossible. At least that's what they say. Let's check it out.
Advanced Micro Devices has been a frequent topic for me at Real Money. I last wrote on this name on Dec. 24, and in late October in response to a third quarter earnings report, which you may recall, fell short on the revenue side. Although gross margin was strong, AMD at that time guided Q4 revenue quite conservatively. The stock sold off -- for one day -- and then took off pretty much for the rest of the year. Why? Basically because performance had been excellent at the firm's largest segment, that of computing and graphics. The unit saw sales increase by 36%, and clearly take market share away from Intel ( INTC) . The part of the firm that had done poorly -- the "enterprise embedded and semi custom" unit provides gaming processors to the likes of Microsoft ( MSFT) and Sony ( SNE) . In short, if gaming gets hot, so does this segment.
When I wrote in December, I made mention of positive commentary that had been made by Wedbush analyst Matt Bryson who cited positive reviews for the latest Threadripper line of processors, and RBC Capital's Mitch Steves, who placed a then industry-high $53 price target on the shares based on the likelihood on improving businesses in both the data center, and you guessed it, gaming. That was great, but there's more.
Rolling Along
Since then, Rosenblatt Secrurities' Hans Mosesmann reiterated his Buy rating, while increasing his target to a new industry-high of $65. Mosesmann made AMD his top semiconductor pick for 2020, and cited coming next generation gaming consoles forthcoming form both Microsoft and Sony as tailwinds for the stock as 2020 winds into its second half. Next at the plate was Nomura's David Wong. Wong expects AMD to "continue to strengthen its competitive position" this year, and raised his price target all the way from $40 to $58. What do Steves, and Mosesmann, and Wong all have in common? Of the 5,775 analysts rated by TipRanks, all three of these individuals are ranked in the top 200.
Vegas, Baby
Just a few hours ago on Tuesday morning, ahead of this week's Consumer Electronics Show -- better known as CES -- 2020 trade show in Las Vegas, Lisa Su spoke from the Mandalay Bay conference center. The firm announced a Feb. 7 launch of a new 64 core, 128 thread Threadripper 3990X aimed at the high-end desktop market that comes with a suggested starting price of $3,990. The firm also announced a number of new Ryzen 4000 mobile processors aimed at different laptop markets covering the consumer, the professional, and also gamers and creators. In each and every case, the firm makes note that these new or updated products either fill needs or out-perform their direct competitors.
This is an updated version of the chart that I drew up for you two weeks ago. You will note that the shares have taken the central trend line of my Pitchfork, as well as my $48 price target as the break-out of out cup with handle pattern has become more pronounced.
What do I do now? I've already lightened up just a bit above $46, not looking to take any more off, I would rather add whenever it is that we see the entire group sell off. (Note to traders, buying quality on industry-wide sell-offs is how you pick off passive investors, who don't know one name from another.) Advanced Micro Devices is expected to report on Jan. 29.
Target price: $53 (up from $48)
Panic point: $45 (up from $36)
Trade Ideas For Those Long AMD (Minimal Lots)
For every 100 shares owned:
- Sell (write) one AMD Jan. 31 $53 call for roughly $1.25.
Note: This reduces the investor's net basis by $1.25, capping profit at the $53 level at expiration.
For as many shares desired (understanding that these shares have been sold at $45):
- Sell (write) one AMD Jan. 31 $44 put for roughly $1.07
Note: This exposes the investor to potential equity risk at expiration with a net basis of $42.97 with the shares that have already been sold at $45, now trading below $44. Should the puts expire, and the $45 panic point remain untouched, net basis on the exiting long is reduced by an additional $1.07. (total reduction: $2.32)

This statistic shows the share of Mac OS and Windows operating system users worldwide that used, at the time of the survey, the most up-to-date or previous version of their operating system, as of 2016. At that time, 53 percent of Mac OS users were running either a fully patched and up-to-date OS or the previous but still supported version of Mac OS. Two percent of Windows users were running Win XP or Windows 8, which were unsupported or not receiving security updates at the time of the survey.

8 "Then my cousin Hanamel came to the guard's courtyard as the Lord had said and urged me, 'Please buy my field in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin, for you own the right of inheritance and redemption. Buy it for yourself.' Then I knew that this was the word of the Lord. 9 So I bought the field in Anathoth from my cousin Hanamel, and I weighed out to him the money m—17 * shekels n of silver. 10 I recorded it on a scroll, o sealed it, called in witnesses, and weighed out the silver in the scales. 11 I took the purchase agreement—the sealed copy with its terms and conditions and the open copy— 12 and gave the purchase agreement to Baruch p son of Neriah, son of Mahseiah. I did this in the sight of my cousin q Hanamel, the witnesses who were signing the purchase agreement, and all the Judeans sitting in the guard's courtyard.
26 Then the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah: 27 "Look, I am Yahweh, the God of all flesh. g Is anything too difficult for Me? h 28 Therefore, this is what the Lord says: I am about to hand this city over to the Chaldeans, i to Babylon's king Nebuchadnezzar, and he will capture it. 29 The Chaldeans who are going to fight against this city will come, set this city on fire, and burn it along with the houses where incense has been burned to * Baal on their rooftops and where * drink offerings have been poured out to other gods to provoke Me to anger. j 30 From their youth, the Israelites and Judeans have done nothing but what is evil in My sight! They have done nothing but provoke Me to anger by the work of their hands" k—this is the Lord's declaration— 31 "for this city has caused My wrath and fury from the day it was built until now. I will therefore remove it from My presence, l 32 because of all the evil the Israelites and Judeans have done to provoke Me to anger—they, their kings, m their officials, their priests, and their prophets, the men of Judah, and the residents of Jerusalem. 33 They have turned their backs to Me and not their faces. n Though I taught them time and time again, o p they do not listen and receive discipline. 34 They have placed their detestable things q in the house that is called by My name and have defiled it. 35 They have built the * high places of Baal in the Valley of Hinnom to make their sons and daughters pass through the fire to * Molech r—something I had not commanded them. I had never entertained the thought s that they do this detestable act causing Judah to sin!
36 "Now therefore, this is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says to this city about which you said, 'It has been handed over to Babylon's king through sword, famine, and plague': 37 I am about to gather them from all the lands where I have banished them in My anger, rage and great wrath, and I will return them to this place and make them live in safety. t 38 They will be My people, and I will be their God. u 39 I will give them one heart v and one way so that for their good and for the good of their descendants after them, they will * fear Me always.

Honoring fallen heroes and their families
Anyone who has had a loved one serve in the armed forces knows it's not just the person in uniform who serves and sacrifices. It's the whole family.
When you see someone wearing a Gold Star Lapel Button/Pin (left) or Next of Kin Deceased Personnel Lapel Button/Pin (right), know this person is living without his or her loved one who made the ultimate sacrifice while serving our country.
The gold star tradition dates back to World War I when a service flag with a blue star would hang in the home of a family who had someone serving in the military. A gold star was placed over the blue star if the service member was killed in combat.
Today, the term "Gold Star" describes a family that has lost a loved one in combat theater or on combat orders. Immediate family members are eligible to receive and wear a Gold Star Lapel Button/Pin from the Department of Defense. The pin features a gold star on a field of purple surrounded by laurel leaves. Eligible family members include the fallen military member's widow or widower, father and mother, stepfather and stepmother, adoptive father and mother, foster father and mother in loco parentis, son, daughter, stepson, stepdaughter, adoptive brother and sister, half-brother and half-sister.
Another less well-known symbol of honor is the Next of Kin Deceased Personnel Lapel Button/Pin. It honors armed service members who have died on active duty while serving outside of combat operations in circumstances that don't qualify for Gold Star recognition.
The Next of Kin Deceased Personnel Lapel Button/Pin was approved in 1973 for the primary next of kin of armed services members who lose their lives while serving on active duty. It features a gold star on a gold background surrounded by four oak sprigs. Eligible family members include the fallen military member's widow or widower, father and mother, stepfather and stepmother, adoptive father and mother, foster father and mother in loco parentis, son, daughter, stepson, stepdaughter, adoptive brother and sister, half-brother and half-sister.

It's Time for Sia to Face the Music: Why Sia's Music Is Harmful to the Autistic Community
By Joseph Stanichar | December 2, 2020 | 11:22am
Movies Features Sia
In case you haven't heard, Australian musician Sia recently released a new trailer for her upcoming musical film Music, in which a troubled woman, Zu (Kate Hudson), takes custody of her teenage half-sister Music (Maddie Ziegler), who is autistic and nonverbal. Sia acts as the screenwriter, director, producer and composer for the film, which is scheduled for a Feb. 12 release. Upon the trailer's release, many people from the autistic community immediately responded with a mix of emotions: outrage, disappointment, apathy, and even hope. As is the case with every group of people, reactions and feelings varied from person to person, and I do not wish to give the impression that all autistic people feel a certain way about this film's choices. However, as an autistic person, I have my own thoughts about it.
At its core, the issue I and many other autistics and allies have with this film, which none of us have seen, is that its autistic main character is played by an actor who is not on the autism spectrum in any capacity. Ziegler is an incredibly talented and popular dancer, model and actress who was only 14 years old at the time of filming Music. As such, I feel it's unfair to blame her too much for taking a great opportunity at an age when most people are just worried about passing their chemistry exam and whether Tony has a crush on Tina. Indeed, she may do an excellent job at portraying the character in a tasteful, nuanced manner. Regardless of the performance's quality, I'm disappointed with Sia's decision to cast a neurotypical person in a neurodivergent role.
The immediate defense I hear the most to this criticism is that "it's just acting, your job is to pretend to be people you aren't." This is true, and worth consideration. I don't want to presume anything about Chris Hemsworth's personal life, but I don't think he actually hails from another planet or wields Mjölnir. However, when it comes to portraying characters with different backgrounds, identities and abilities as yourself—especially backgrounds, identities and abilities that have historically led to discrimination—that gets more complicated.
As soon as the movie camera came into existence, straight, white, abled men were in its focus. When women and people of color did appear, it was often in more minor roles. Caricatured acts like the medium's ugly, racist history of blackface appeared in everything from The Jazz Singer to The Birth of a Nation. The popularization of animation made it more passable—yet not more appropriate—for white actors to voice characters of color, such as Hank Azaria's longtime portrayal of Indian Simpsons character Apu. And though the world seems to have grasped that blackface, even animated blackface, is not ok, it remains common to see abled actors portray disabled characters, such as Bryan Cranston playing a character who uses a wheelchair in 2017's The Upside.
This is not to say that actors can't give genuine, impassioned performances of characters who identify differently from themselves, nor that every instance of such is out of malice for the portrayed group. But now that we live in what is supposed to be a more equitable society, there is no shortage of equally talented actors who are LGBTQ+, disabled and BIPOC—and who see a shortage of opportunities as other actors book these roles.
If you hold any amount of privilege, stop and consider how this would feel. These marginalized communities already face discrimination from so many avenues—suffer so much based on how they were born—and then someone who doesn't face those forms of discrimination dons their identities as a prop to further their own career.
Autistic characters haven't seen much prominence in film—even less when played by autistic actors. One of the most famous movies focusing on an autistic character is in 1988's critically acclaimed Rain Man, in which the neurotypical actor Dustin Hoffman plays Raymond Babbitt. Babbitt is referred to as a "savant," someone who is neurodivergent and highly skilled in a specific area. Perhaps more than any other on-screen depiction of autism, this performance has had the most negative consequences for those with autism.
"[Rain Man] has such an overbearing, lingering presence in so many autistic people's lives, and yet we have no actual presence in it at all," writes Sarah Kurchak in I Overcame My Autism and All I Got Was This Lousy Anxiety Disorder. "Autism was a whim or creative exercise for the talent, a device for the characters and an object for the audience. And yet it has defined the ways in which people perceive us and mock us ever since it came out. It's contributed to the stereotypes that have prevented autistic people who aren't like Raymond from being recognized, being diagnosed and receiving support."
I am a white, cisgender, straight male from a middle-class family. I get to see people who look like me everywhere I view content, albeit usually a bit more handsome. And yet, as someone who was repeatedly called "retarded" by peers and even adults—someone who was led to believe that I was worth less and undeserving of friends or relationships because of the way my brain functions—it hurts to see someone who never had to face these hardships mimic the most visible signs of autism for a handsome paycheck and critical accolades, be it in Rain Man or in Music. For those far less privileged than myself, I can only imagine how much sharper that pain may be.
I also understand that it's not Sia's mission to cause as much pain for autistics as she can. From statements she's given on Twitter, it's clear that Sia believes her film to be a heartfelt, loving representation of what it's like to be autistic through the lens of music, and I agree with her that I can't fairly judge the quality and message of the film based on background information and a one-minute trailer.
Sia has also shared that at one point, she did work with an autistic actor on the film. "The character is based completely on my neuro atypical friend," Sia tweeted. "He found it too stressful being non verbal, and I made this movie with nothing but love for him and his mother." She has also stated that she has cast thirteen "neuroatypical" and three transgender people within the film, although we don't know how much prominence any of their characters have.
On the other hand, Sia also shared this insightful and nuanced defense of her work to the public:
Grrrrrrrrrr. Fuckity fuck why don't you watch my film before you judge it? FURY.
— sia (@Sia) November 20, 2020
Even worse, when autistic actor Helen Zbihlyj responded countering that she and many other qualified actors on the spectrum reached out prior to filming, saying that they "could have acted in it on short notice," Sia responded by simply tweeting, "Maybe you're just a bad actor." If they had auditioned and been turned down, perhaps she could argue that they were, although it still would have been needlessly cruel. As it is, it's a petty attack on someone already hurt over this decision. Not cool.
Aside from the casting and Sia's social media response, Music has some other big red flags. Sia has stated that she consulted with Autism Speaks for the film, which is a harmful organization that views autism as a disease to be "cured," among myriad other issues. She also uses euphemisms such as "special abilities" to refer to disabilities, which further stigmatizes disabled people and comes across as infantilizing. Is it unfair to worry that this type of research and language may appear in the film by the same person who wrote, directed and produced it? I hope these fears are proven wrong.
Regardless of how good or bad, uplifting or harmful Music's message ends up being, Sia has already hurt lots of autistic people, even if we know that wasn't her intention. Now, she can either continue digging in her heels and insulting everyone who criticizes her, or she can stop, listen to people's concerns, and work to be a better ally who more accurately and empathetically includes and represents disabled and other marginalized communities in the future.
In response to one autistic person's tweet stating that they want to create "a neurodivergent musical with neurodivergent actors in response to this movie," Sia tweeted this:
I would love that too and would be totally into help financing it. I feel so sad. I think we all want the same thing.
Perhaps we do. The question is, will Sia recognize her mistakes and work toward correcting them? If there is progress to be made here, it's time for Sia to face the music.

Redacted Mueller expected on Thursday. TRANSCRIPT: 4/15/19. The 11th Hour w/ Brian Williams.
Guests: Katie Benner, Matthew Miller, Jaimie Nawaday
April 16, 2019, 3:00 AM UTC
LAWRENCE O`DONNELL, MSNBC ANCHOR: -- After the mourning for what the world loss today, we will rebuild, the world will contribute to the rebuilding of Notre Dame Cathedral.
And the new Notre Dame Cathedral will be a new chapter in our never ending story of civilization. That`s "Tonight`s Last Word." "The 11th Hour" with Brian Williams starts now.
BRIAN WILLIAMS, THE 11TH HOUR, HOST: Robert Mueller was seen going to work today on this day when we learned when we`ll finally be able to see the result of his 22 months of work. The White House plan to counter it is now clear and soon all eyes will return to Donald Trump. Former CIA Director John Brennan is here with us tonight on what to expect.
Also the most helpless feeling in the world shared by everyone around the world as we watch one of the most famous places on earth, a holy place get consumed by fire. Tonight an update on what`s been lost and what`s been saved at Notre Dame in Paris as "The 11th Hour" gets under way on a Monday night.
On this Monday night good evening once again from our NBC News headquarters here in New York, this was day 816 of the Trump administration. And we now know in just three days we will get to see the written result of 22 months of work by that man, Robert Mueller, along with his team. As for his part he was seen entering work today.
The Justice Department says it expects to make a redacted version of Mueller`s report available to Congress and by extension the public Thursday morning, which just happens to be, of course, Holy Thursday on the Catholic calendar and the day before the start of passover, just as so many Americans begin a long holiday weekend and Congress notably remains on recess.
The report will follow by three weeks, that letter by Attorney General Barr that said Mueller found no indication that anyone associated with the Trump campaign conspired with Russia to influence the 2016 election. Barr also said Mueller withheld judgment, took a pass in other words on whether Trump tried to obstruct justice during the inquiry.
Days ago Barr told Congress he does believe the Trump campaign was spied upon in 2016. "The Washington Post" puts it this way, "The House Judiciary Committee is poised to issue a subpoena for the report`s redacted portion." Bloomberg news writes, the reports released, "maybe the start of a legal clash with subpoenas from committees in the Democratic controlled House that could go all the way to the Supreme Court."
Tonight Trump attorney, Jay Sekulow, is revealing some of the legal team`s plans to respond to Mueller. He tells our colleague Hallie Jackson the team met today to nail down plans to respond to the report. He says the lawyers will probably each be responsible for tackling a section of it and that they are still deciding on whether to issue a counter report.
Now, another member of the President`s legal team, Rudy Giuliani, has been saying all along he`s got a counter report ready to go. "The New York Times" has more on how Trump plans to respond, and we quote, "Trump`s plan of attack aides said is to act as if the report itself is extraneous to Mr. Barr`s brief letter and that he is purposely escalating his language, people who know him said, expressly to enliven his base of supporters and to enrage his political rivals."
We saw some of that excalation from Trump this morning. And we quote, "Mueller and the A.G. based on Mueller findings and great intelligence have already ruled no collusion, no obstruction." That`s his characterization, of course, of the findings. "Investigate the investigators." Then there`s this, "They spied on my campaign. We will never forget."
And this is what Trump has been saying in public over and over these past three weeks.
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: You`re accusing the people who launched the investigation into your campaign of treasonous act. How high up do you think it went?
DONALD TRUMP, (R) PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES: I think it went very high up.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Do you think it reached the West Wing of the Obama White House?
TRUMP: I don`t want to say that, but I think you know the answer.
The deep state to overturn the results of the 2016 election have failed.
This was a hoax, a witch hunt.
People did things that were very, very bad for our country and very, very illegal.
This was an attempted coup. This was an attempted take down of a president.
There was absolutely spying into my campaign. This is dirty politics. And this is actually treason.
WILLIAMS: As we`ll get into here tonight Trump`s legal jeopardy may not end with the close of Mueller`s investigation, of course. "The New York Times" reports tonight the House Intelligence and Financial Services Committees have issued subpoenas to Deutsche Bank and several other banks seeking information about the President`s finances and the lender`s business dealings with Russians.
Deutsche Bank has been in the news because they loaned Trump over $2 Billion in all. He had more than $300 million in outstanding loans from Deutsche Bank by the time he took office.
Earlier former U.S. Solicitor General Neal Katyal talked about what investigators could be looking for here.
NEAL KATYAL, FORMER U.S. SOLICITOR GENERAL: I think they`re looking for two things, one is evidence of any potential crimes evert committed, not just by Trump but by the organization, by people around hi. And second, broader than that governance issues and whether judgment was -- a good judgment was exercised.
(END VIDEO CLIP)
WILLIAMS: In addition to all of that, attorneys for Trump have sent a second letter to the Treasury Department protesting the House Ways and Means Committee`s request for his tax returns. This comes after the committee`s deadline was pushed back to next Tuesday. Those same attorneys are warning of possible legal action if Trump`s accountants hand over any of his financial records to the House Oversight and Reform Committee. The lawyers called both committees inquiries politically motivated efforts to go after this President.
And with that here on our lead off discussion on a Monday night, Matthew Miller, former chief spokesman at the Justice Department. Katie Benner, Justice Department for -- Justice Reporter of the "New York Times". And we welcome to the broadcast, Jaimie Nawaday, former Assistant U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York. Good evening and welcome to all of you.
Katie, I`d like to begin with you. Do you find the timing notable, the news, after all that we learned today that it`s coming on Thursday, by this broadcast Thursday night we`ll know what`s in it, probably still be pouring over it. Do you find the timing notable?
KATIE BENNER, THE NEW YORK TIMES JUSTICE DEPT. REPORTER: Well, I mean this is what Bill Barr has promised, he said mid-month. But, of course, he`s also very cognizant how much attention has been paid to this report and it is not a bad idea to role out the findings before a holiday weekend in order to sort of stop the 24 constant flood of news that would have happened if he released it earlier.
Keep in mind also he needs to deal with the White House reaction to report that while the top line findings might be in some ways good for Trump you do not spend 400 pages to say good things about someone and nothing bad. So of course there are going to be things he has to deal with when it comes to having conversations with his boss. And I do think that a long holiday weekend is the best time to do that.
WILLIAMS: Your newspaper was the one that reported there was misgiving on the report of the Mueller team about how their work product had been interpreted publicly. Have you anything further on that now that we know a member of the Mueller team has been at the table, we`re led to believe, helping to go over these redactions?
BENNER: I think that you`re always going to find on a team there are people who have different opinions and are more or less happy with the way that things had turned out. But I think practically speaking that concern, you can see how it`s already played out. The report is not yet out.
In the intervening three weeks, President Trump has had time to declare total exoneration and also spin the findings, a report that no one has even seen. So he has been able to use this time wisely.
Also Bill Barr who was an incredibly savvy guy, he has used this time, the lull before the report comes out, to make statements that also have created sort of a connection between the Justice Department and the White House in terms of spying. The Justice Department and White House for two years did not get along. A president, who only criticized the attorney General, only criticized the Justice Department. And now Barr has made comments that I think his boss is very happy to hear about this idea that there might have been unlawful surveillance in 2016 and he wants to get to the bottom of it.
WILLIAMS: Matt Miller, you`re the calms (ph) here at the table, Holy Thursday, eve of Good Friday, eve of the start of Passover, coincidental?
MATTHEW MILLER, FMR. JUSTICE DEPT. CHIEF SPOKESMAN: That`s where you want to bury something. If you`re looking to take news and release it in a way that most ensures that American public, you know, to the extent they`re not going to see because they`re going to see this report. It`s going to go on for days. But if you want to try to bury it, you do it before holiday weekend.
That said, there is, you know, that`s the most nefarious explanation possible. There`s a less nefarious explanation, which is we were hearing last week that the report would come out maybe Monday or Tuesday. I can tell you the Justice Department never gets things out on a Monday or Tuesday. It always comes out at the end of the week.
And if you`re sitting in the Justice Department today and you know you`re going to get it out at the end of week, you can`t put it out on Good Friday so you have to get it out Thursday. And there`s a benefit to saying publicly today that you`re going to get it out Thursday and that sets a deadline for everyone in the building. That building runs on deadline, and by setting a deadline they have to stick to, you ensure that it`s met.
WILLIAMS: Joyce said at Justice there`s always one more pair of eyes that just to be safe wants to see.
MILLER: There`s always one more lawyer who wants to run it against one more statute, who wants to run it against one more precedent and maybe wants to make one further edit. That goes forever and ever unless you put a deadline to stop it.
WILLIAMS: Counselor, I`m curious, what would the President`s lawyers know what to write in a rebuttal? And we`ve been assured by him there is no obstruction, no collusion?
JAIMIE NAWADAY, FMR. ASSISTANT U.S. ATTY. SOUTHERN DISTRICT ON NY: Well, I think a few things. One is that they want to divide up the report and they want to see what else is out there. So they want to highlight the good news, but the good news is already out there. The bad news is what we expect to be coming in the following weeks and months.
And so the challenge is going to be to stay disciplined. Because when you know there are additional investigations out there, there could be additional charges, you want your client to stay humble and stay quiet, and that`s obviously going to be a big challenge here. So they want to highlight --
WILLIAMS: Did you say humble and quiet?
NAWADAY: Yes, I did.
WILLIAMS: OK, just being sure.
NAWADAY: And -- so they probably want each to focus on pockets of investigations, whether it`s investigations in the Southern District of New York or the New York attorney general, the other investigations that we know are continuing to proceed.
And so of course the challenge for Trump is going to be not to declare victory too soon. And of course he`s already done that, declared total exoneration, and then we can expect there`s another shoe that will drop. And you don`t want your client as a defense attorney to get out in front of the facts and then be embarrassed and that`s going to be the ongoing challenge here.
WILLIAMS: OK, Katie, so this is a little bit a story from inside newspaper row but it affects everybody. Our colleagues at "The Washington Post" asked for the documents in the Manafort case to be unsealed. In response they got this from the U.S. attorney in Washington, D.C. "The Manafort case has been transferred from the special counsel`s office, Mueller, to the U.S. attorney`s office. The redactions are intended to protect ongoing investigations that are being handled by various attorneys in various offices. It is unknown how long some of these investigations may remain ongoing."
Katie, what does that tell you?
BENNER: Absolutely. So it tells us two things. One, I think we`re going to see this with the report as well, with the Mueller report. There are things in the response from the U.S. Attorney`s Office in D.C. What they`re essentially saying is, "we`ve redacted things we`re allowed to redact and we need to in order to protect investigations." That`s going to be an argument we`ll see made with the Mueller report.
There`ll be things that we, the public, cannot see because Bob Mueller and his team and the Justice Department will say, "We want to protect ongoing investigations elsewhere. What will be different, though, and what -- excuse me, Bill Barr has already said he`s willing to do is to negotiate with different committee members in Congress who can make some claim that they have an equity, they have a reason to see information that shouldn`t be shown to the general public whether it`s law enforcement sensitive information or even classified information. And the committees can negotiate with the Justice Department to see that, which they also did, you know, in the first years of the Trump administration when Republican congressmen and Congressional leaders were asking the Justice Department for information related to everything from the special counsel`s office, to, you know, roots of different investigations, the Hillary Clinton investigation. They also made cut deals to show them sensitive information. So there`ll be a split between what we the public sees and what Congress eventually negotiates to see.
WILLIAMS: And Jaimie, this speaks to the point you just made to all else out there. The other peril this President faces. And this tells us that there`s still enough boiling that even in this case, they can`t let us see the supporting documents.
NAWADAY: Absolutely. Because you have to protect the privacy of uncharged third parties and you have to protect the confidentiality of all of these ongoing investigations. So those redactions are completely appropriate. We will see the full report obviously eventually, but I don`t think we`ll see a tremendous number of redactions. I think people are obviously clamoring to see the full report and want total transparency here. But the ongoing investigations have to be protected.
WILLIAMS: You spent seven years in the beautiful confines of the Southern District of New York, which people can see portrayed on billions if they want to see just how luxurious a building it is. With that in mind as you look at the landscape, what do you think poses the greatest peril of the known challenges out there legally?
NAWADAY: I think the greatest challenge in terms of the investigations probably does come from the Southern District of New York. Those investigations had been reported on quite a bit. It is known as a prestigious and hard charging office, a very independent office. It hasn`t been politicized, at least so far, the way Mueller`s investigation has been politicized. And so it`s really not going to be subject to the same attacks that Mueller team has been subject to.
And they will follow through and follow the evidence where it leads. And I think that from what we know so far that poses the greatest threat.
WILLIAMS: The name is so misleading. There`s nothing southern about it, really, when you think about it except that it`s the Justice Department`s office in Manhattan. Very much fenced through and through.
Matt, I need a bold prediction from you. Come Monday night`s broadcast when some of us will be sitting here post-Easter Sunday, do you think we will still be hashing through the findings of what we know to be the redacted Mueller report? Will it have that much power and impact?
MILLER: I do. I think we will. I think the obstruction of justice section of the report is likely to be almost completely unredacted. We don`t know if any witnesses in that part of the investigation is going to the grand jury, so it wouldn`t be redacted for that reason. It doesn`t relate to an ongoing investigation, it wouldn`t be classified information, so I think we`ll see just about everything there is in that piece of the report.
And I suspect the findings because they relate just to the President`s behavior. They don`t relate to aides around him, they don`t relate to people that worked in the campaign. They`re about his actions and we know that they will include some actions that have not yet been previously reported. That`s what Bill Barr said in his letter and I suspect they will be quite striking and will give us -- give the American public and the committees in Congress quite a lot to think about.
WILLIAMS: Our thanks to the big three for starting us off on a Monday night. Matthew Miller, Katie Benner, and Jaimie Nawaday, thank you all.
And coming up, we`ll speak to a former director of the CIA about what will and won`t be made public in this forthcoming report Thursday morning.
And later, as we said the very latest on the tragic fire that tore up history as it tore through the historic cathedral of Notre Dame, we`re live in Paris as the president of France is promising to rebuild. He got some big assistance in that effort tonight. "The 11th Hour" is just getting under way on a Monday evening.
(COMMERCIAL BREAK)
LESLEY STAHL, CBS ANCHOR: Do you think that the Attorney General is covering anything up?
REP. NANCY PELOSI, (D-CA) SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE: I have no idea. I have no idea. He may be whitewashing but I don`t know if he`s covering anything up. There`s no sense having that discussion. All we need to do is see the Mueller report.
WILLIAMS: As we mentioned members of Congress and the public will get to see the redacted or edited version of the report on Thursday. And a letter to Congress back in March 29th it was, Barr offered of preview of what we might expect and we quote, "The Special Counsel`s report is nearly 400 pages long inclusive of tables and appendices and sets forth the Special Counsel`s findings, his analysis, and the reasons for his conclusions."
Quoting the same letter Barr also told lawmakers he`s redacting grand jury material, information that could compromise intelligence sources, ongoing investigation and material that could violate the privacy of people not charged.
Here with us in the studio tonight former CIA Director John Brennan also happens to be our Senior National Security and Intelligence analyst. Thank you for coming in.
JOHN BRENNAN, FMR. CIA DIRECTOR: Thank you, Brian.
WILLIAMS: What do you want to learn in this thing aside from the politics about Russia`s role in reaching into our democracy, about Putin`s aim, something you know a lot about already? What do you want to see us do a result of what we learn?
BRENNAN: Well, I want to find out what it is that Bob Mueller spent nearly two years with his team uncovering. And the few short snippets of sentences that were in William Barr`s memo I think, you know, cover a whole lot of issues that we really need to have a better sense of.
And I`m hoping that Congress is going to get more information than the American public is. The Congressional committee of jurisdiction in particularly certainly deserves to see a lot of that underlying information that may be redacted from the public. And so I`m looking forward to seeing how much is actually going to be covered in black in this document.
WILLIAMS: Do you worry about leaks? What if one of the ambitious members of one of the committees in question calls or sends over a document to a friend of theirs in the news media that ends up exposing sources and methods of your beloved former co workers oversees?
BRENNAN: Well, I think the Intelligence Committee certainly have a very good track record of protecting sources and methods. And I`m hoping that any redactions of sources and methods information is going to protect those sources and methods and is going to allow the substance to come out. I think that`s critically important to find out what Mueller and his team actually did find so you can protect that sources and method information.
I was involved in a lot of redactions and if I`m going to see pages just full of black or paragraphs upon paragraphs full of black, they are not taking an approach hat tries to be as transparent as possible. They`re trying to cover it up. So, 400 pages, I`m sure there`s a lot of information that will in fact be redacted, but it should be partial sentences or maybe sentences but not full pages of things because I`m confident Bob Mueller and his team recognize just how important it is to get as much information out as possible.
And I`m hoping although I`ve been disappointed so far with what William Barr has done, I`m hoping that he is really going to be as impartial as possible and not represent Donald Trump as Donald Trump`s lawyer but actually represent the Department of Justice and the American people so that finally we can have some closure as far as what this investigation did uncover.
WILLIAMS: Let me show you the consequence, maybe not intended, but the consequence of what Barr has done. Join me in watching this. This is how the President interrupted Barr`s letter.
TRUMP: I have not seen the Mueller report. I have not read the Mueller report. I won. No collusion, no obstruction. I won.
As far as I`m concerned I don`t care about the Mueller report, I`ve been totally exonerated.
I`m not concerned about anything because, frankly, there was no collusion and there was no obstruction. And we never did anything wrong. The people that did something wrong were the other side. The dirty cops and a lot of the problems that were caused.
WILLIAMS: After the President came out and characterized it that way as no one needs to remind you, you were basically hung in effigy especially by some on the air at Fox News. As having been wrong, as having failed and having been riding this hobby (ph) horse for years, how do you think Thursday will change that view?
BRENNAN: Well, I think my point that I`ve made including in print was to say that it`s obvious that collusion was taking place between some members of the Trump campaign and Russians. The big question is whether or not that collusion did reach the level of criminal conspiracy. I take Bob Mueller`s and his team`s word that they were not able to establish the evidentiary standard and basis to charge somebody with criminal conspiracy. That doesn`t mean that there wasn`t a lot of unethical, unprincipled, and unpatriotic things taking place.
And I do think it`s important to have that see the light of day. So I am waiting to see as much of that report as possible. And then on the obstruction of justice issue, I mean we know very, very little about that. And it should be no surprise to anybody that Mr. Trump would continue to misrepresent and mischaracterize what was said there.
That report, even Barr`s memo, never said there was no collusion. Collusion was not a word used there. It was just conspiracy or coordination. So collusion, I think, I will still say that took place. And Barr`s memo referenced Mueller`s report by saying this did not exonerate Mr. Trump. But Mr. Trump has his own set of, you know, reality, and he will continue to, I think, cast things in a way that is most positive to him and to delude and to mislead the American people. That`s why it`s so important for this information to come out so we can see it in black and white what Bob Mueller and his team actually found evidence of or not.
WILLIAMS: As the former head of our spies, how do you feel seeing the word spies tossed about including by the Attorney General?
BRENNAN: Well, when he talked about spying on the campaign there was no spying as far as I`m concerned by anybody. What was done was a very necessary investigation that was predicated with information that would have been derelict if the FBI and CIA did not try to pull the threads to find out what the Russians were doing.
And when the Russians threads touched U.S. persons including those involved in the campaign, the FBI had a solemn obligation to find out who might have been working with the Russians. So I take great umbrage when Attorney General Barr says that they were spying.
Was there an investigation going on, absolutely? And does he want to take a look at what was the basis for the FISA warrants? Yes, he can do that. But to just so cavalierly throw out the term spying when he knows that that is going to be a dog whistle for so many individual that were out there, I think he was not as careful certainly as he should have been.
WILLIAMS: Former Director Brennan, thank you very much for stopping by. We always appreciate it.
As Mayor Pete makes the media rounds including this studio, coming off his Sunday announcement, when we come back it`s not just Democrats challenging this President anymore. That when we continue.
PETER BUTTIGIEG (D), SOUTH BEND MAYOR PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE: Took me plenty of time to come out to myself. So, I did not the way you did or the way my husband did figure out at such an early age. I probably shouldn`t. I mean there certainly plenty of indications by the time I was 15 or so that I could point out but yes, I was gay. There`s really the deployment that put me over the top. I realized that you only get to be one person. You don`t know how long you have on this earth and by the time I came back I realized like I got to do something.
BRIAN WILLIAMS, MSNBC ANCHOR: Really interesting conversation with Rachel in this very studio tonight. Pete Buttigieg officially joined the 2020 race on Sunday in the town of South Bend where he`s been the mayor for the last seven years. He has generated rather sudden national attention. And it`s reflected in the polls.
The latest national polling out by Emerson College shows Buttigieg polling in third behind two men pretty much everyone has already heard of. Bernie Sanders and Joe Biden still hanging onto the top spots, though. Sanders has now overtaken the former vice president and a reminder, Biden is not in the race. There`s that.
Here with us tonight is John Heilemann, our MSNBC national affairs analyst. He`s also coauthor of "Game Change" and cohost of "The Circus" on Showtime.
Before I ask you the handicap, the chances of Pete Buttigieg, I want to show you a moment that happened here in New York tonight. He is approached on this dark and sad and awful night for all the people in France by a French reporter. Here we go.
BUTTIGIEG: (Speaking in Foreign Language)
JOHN HEILEMANN, MSNBC NATIONAL AFFAIRS ANALYST: Well, I`ll tell you Brian --
WILLIAMS: I know he`s not running for president of France.
HEILEMANN: Also I don`t speak.
WILLIAMS: That`s impressive.
HEILEMANN: I speak no French. So I have idea what on the merits --
WILLIAMS: The longest years of my life were high school French.
HEILEMANN: So I don`t know if he had substantively a good answer or politically a good answer. Impressive the man speaks multiple languages, fluently and if you believe the theory of opposites that we trade, you know, you go from Bill Clinton to George W. Bush and George W. Bush to Barack Obama, Barack Obama to Donald Trump.
WILLIAMS: Jimmy Carter to Ronald Reagan.
HEILEMANN: If you believe the theory of opposites the guy who`s the opposite of Donald Trump is a guy fluent in multiple languages and can take on a French reporter like that.
WILLIAMS: That`s the opposite.
HEILEMANN: Donald Trump did not, let`s put it that way, barely can do English.
WILLIAMS: What do you make of his chances? I know it`s early yet and it`s crowded and --
HEILEMANN: And we don`t know even know who the field is, right? We`re still waiting on big time people like Terry McAuliffe, Michael Bennett, the governor of Montana. We`re waiting on Joe Biden still. So, we don`t even know who the field is.
He has had, you know, the only so far in the race, Mayor Pete, that is, he`s had the only genuine authentic, organic unexpected moment so far. If things are going to get harder for him now, he`s going to start now expectations are he`s a first year candidate. You put up those polling numbers. Let`s point out that Congressman O`Rourke and Senator Harris and Senator Warren are all with the margin of error. They are all basically the same place in that second tier polling.
But in terms of consciousness, national consciousness the impression he`s making. He`s now a first year kid. He`s got the hot hand which means that he`s going to start getting opposition research against him, he`s going to start getting hard questions from reporters and he`s got the base to perform in against a bunch of people who done a lot more national combat than he has. Does it mean he can`t be the nominee? Of course it doesn`t, you know. Right now it looks pretty good. He`s on a roll. But it`s early. There`s a lot of yards between now and Iowa caucuses.
WILLIAMS: Bernie Sanders today released his tax returns and there were two political headlines today while we were concentrating on a fire in Paris, Bill Weld got into the race against Donald Trump as a Republican. As someone snarkly pointed out he hasn`t won on election since the late `90s.
HEILEMANN: Yes.
WILLIAMS: And Bernie released his tax returns and look who`s a member of the 1 percent?
HEILEMANN: Yes, I mean look the two of -- one I think of not so great consequences of these two stories, Governor Weld, a man I liked greatly was a kind of a Republican who -- the race you`re talking about was when he won the Massachusetts governorship in a race that would became the governor of Massachusetts. He ran for the Senate against John Kerry in the 1990s also.
He was the kind of Republican who could win in Massachusetts. That kind of Republican has no place in today`s Republican Party.
WILLIAMS: Or Mitt Romney.
HEILEMANN: Yes, right, or Mitt Romney. He doesn`t have a place. The Republican Party is not the Republican Party of Massachusetts in the mid- 1990s. He`s a nestable (ph) guy and you never as a sitting president want to have a primary opponent. It just forces you to be to run in races you don`t want to run, to spend money you don`t want to spend, to have to deal with this gnat that`s kind of flying around and distracting you. And we all know Donald Trump does not like mosquitos or gnats.
Bernie Sanders, you know, look, no one`s going to hold against him as he points out, he wrote a couple of books. They were very successful, he made some money. Is it awkward for him having spent 2016 railing against millionaire and billionaires and now turning out to be a millionaire, it`s awkward. But there`s an easy answer out of it which is the say I think I should have my taxes raised. I think, you know, I am member now of the millionaire class. And I should have my power constrained, and I think that`s what he`s going to say. And I don`t think there`s anybody who right now as a giant fan of Bernie Sanders and there`s a substantial number of them. The Democratic Party is going to be turned off of him by the fact he had a couple of -- he had some success on the book circuit.
WILLIAMS: We talk about the strength of Trump`s space and therefore to it, you know, what`s the world I`m looking to? Sticktoitiveness.
HEILEMANN: Yes, durability. I mean, look.
WILLIAMS: Yes.
HEILEMANN: He is the only guy right now Bernie Sanders sitting here today who we know, absent a comet hitting him metaphorically, I hope, absent that who can -- who`s going to have the money to compete in 50 states, who can go all the way to June, he`s going to have the donor base to carry him forward and has, you know, party that`s moving to the left, has a piece of real estate that he has a really firm grip on right now. Maybe someone can take it away from him, some people are going to try. But right now the clearest, most -- cleanly demarked de marked territory he owns it and he`s got a money machine that guarantees him run all the way til June. That`s the guy who`s formidable and he`s going to be formidable for a long time to come.
WILLIAMS: Thank you for spending party your Monday night with us. As always --
HEILEMANN: Happy to be here.
WILLIAMS: -- John Heilemann, our guest here in the studio.
Coming up an update from Paris where the world sadness was focused for much of this day.
WILLIAMS: Daybreak arrives in Paris about an hour from now. So many Parisians don`t want to see what night has shielded from their view. Yes, Paris has lost a church, a parish has lost its gathering place. More importantly the Catholic Church has lost a holy place at the start of holy week and civilization has lost one of its centers.
What we watched burning today was architecture of global importance, an icon containing icons and treasures in a building that survived in no particular order crusades, reformation, revolution and two world wars.
The helplessness came in watching timbers that date back to the 12th century burn as if soaked in gasoline. A still photo shows the first signs of smoke, but even then the damage was rolling its way through. There is no piece of fire apparatus in the world that is built tall enough for this task. And the sheer weight and impact of any airborne water drop no matter what anyone tells you could have caused catastrophic collapse and could have pushed the fire elsewhere in the cathedral.
Then there`s the scaffolding. While the cause is not yet known, just the presence of a construction protect exponentially heightens the chance of an accident.
Tonight the mayor of Paris sent out this picture showing some of the items saved from the fire not seen though reported to have survived are the two most important to catholic believers, the crown of thorns and a portion of the cross from the crucifixion.
As life in Paris came to a mournful standstill today hymns broke out on city streets.
With us tonight from Paris is our own correspondent Matt Bradley, and here with me in New York is Elaine Sciolino, veteran journalist and former Paris bureau chief for the New York Times. She also happens to be the author of the fourth coming book about the river that surrounds the island where Notre Dame sits, "The Seine: The River That Made Paris."
Good evening and welcome to both of you. Matt, I`d love to begin with you to ask you what it has been like in these overnight hours in a city defined by its streets, by cafe society, by its love of life.
MATT BRADLEY, MSNBC NEWS FOREIGN CORRESPONDENT: Well, you know, Brian, as you mentioned, you know, Parisians don`t want to see what night has been shielding from them. But I also think that when dawn arrives and you said it`s just going to be an hour from now, they`re going to be looking at what is left here. And really there`s quite a lot.
You know, the edifice behind me as you can see, so much of this building still stands. The structural integrity of this building is still intact. So many of the relics that as you said are so important to so many catholic believers, they`re still intact
And, you know, as a catholic yourself I think you remember how these buildings they mean so much more than just the structure and the architecture. They actually bring life and historically have brought life to the religion for those believers and the people who come and worship there.
And I think so much of that is still there. You know, 60 percent of the roof of this building was destroyed in the fire. That massive spire that rises about a football field`s height above the ground, that was destroyed. But everything else, the beautiful rose windows, the stained glass windows, so much of that remains.
And President Macron, he announced that he`s going to be launching a major fund-raising effort to try to rebuild this cathedral. And I think there`s actually just so much left that so many of the Parisians can look forward to seeing rebuilt and seeing put forward into building not a new church but a restored church.
WILLIAMS: Hey, Matt Bradley with morning approaching after a long night`s work, thank you very much for giving us the situation there in Paris. We appreciate it.
Elaine, what`s lost with the loss of Notre Dame?
ELAINE SCIOLINO, THE NEW YORK TIMES FMR. PARIS BUEAU CHIEF: Well, let me be a bit radical in saying Notre Dame is not lost, that this as your colleague said is a survivor and a surviving edifice and a surviving church. Much of it remains intact. The stones are intact and the most dramatic image that we saw playing over and over was the top link of the spire.
And what many of your viewers may not know is that spire was put up in the mid-19th century by Viollet-le-Duc and many people didn`t like what he did with that spire. It was corroded. It`s wood beams were starting to fall apart, and it may be a blessing in disguise that the shape of this building which has been basically very degraded in recent decades is now before the world`s -- the world view, and we can see that how dramatic a renovation is needed.
WILLIAMS: Again, looking at the scenes of this fire it is -- it`s hard to take it all in, it`s hard to realize that the torrents of water coming out of that sanctuary down every staircase contain paint from the 12th century that has burned off these walls.
Tell you what, Elaine has agreed to stay with us. We`ll fit in a quick break here. When we come back we`ll talk about the process of rebuilding something that stood for eight centuries.
TIMOTHY DOLAN, ARCHBISHOP OF NEW YORK: For the French, my god, for the world, Notre Dame Cathedral represents what`s most noble, what`s most uplifting, what`s most inspirational about the human project. And to see that reduced to ashes, my, oh, my.
WILLIAMS: That was Cardinal Dolan of New York. No more than 500 yards from where we`re sitting right now. And indeed New Yorkers look up at St. Pats Catherdal differently today. And tonight, this fire at Notre Dame Cathedral triggered an outpouring of emotion, for this building that has remitted Paris for over 800 years.
13 million people a year visit this, that`s twice the number that go to the Eiffel Tower. The first stone was laid in 1163 by Pope Alexander III. It was the place where Napoleon was crowned emperor 1804. It holds countless irreplaceable artifacts and is an icon way beyond its role in the Catholic Church.
50,000 people a day visit during this week, during holy week in normal times. Tonight French President Emmanuel Macron promised it will be rebuilt. And Elaine Sciolino remains with us.
Elaine, I have to say that I just saw tonight, Francois-Henri Pinault who happens to be married to Salma Hayek, but more importantly for the purposes of this story, is billionaire who runs brands like Gucci and Yves Saint- Laurent, has pledged over $100 million. That`s a huge help.
SCIOLINO: Well, and he didn`t pledge it before this tragedy. And I will predict that there will be an outpouring, not only of love and attention to rebuilding Notre Dame, but a lot of money, which is needed. This was part of $180 million renovation. Already we`ve got $100 million of it from the Pinault family. Which is extraordinary.
WILLIAMS: Let`s talk about this church as a museum. You can`t take an architecture course without learning the story of Notre Dame. You can`t take a history course, certainly art history, without learning the story of Notre Dame. Not just the structure, but sadly, some things we just know were lost in this fire.
SCIOLINO: You`re absolutely right. Notre Dame has an importance way beyond the fact that it`s a church. It`s in our DNA. Anybody who has seen Paris, even people who have never visited Paris will know Notre Dame. It`s in our films. "An American in Paris". You`ve got Gene Kelly dancing with Leslie Caron along the Seine River and there pops up Notre Dame.
Woody Allen when he did "Midnight In Paris" the opening five minutes scenes in the beginning of the firm, there`s Notre Dame. "Charade" with Cary Grant and Audi Hepburn, they`re walking along the Seine and suddenly there appears Notre Dame. It`s part of our film culture. It`s part of our literary culture with Victor Hugo`s 1831 novel. It`s part of music. There`s a whole opera by Puccini that is set on a barge right in front of Notre Dame. So you`re right, it`s part of our culture. It`s part of our humanity.
WILLIAMS: And you`ve gone and written a book about the river Seine.
SCIOLINO: Well, and the island on which Notre Dame was built is the beating heart of Paris. It`s the absolute foundation of Paris. And people who`ve been to Notre Dame they have gone to the crypt underneath the cathedral and seen the Gallo Roman Ruins and the walls and the baths of ancient France.
WILLIAMS: Thank you so much on this night of all nights for joining us. We appreciate it.
SCIOLINO: Thank you for inviting me.
WILLIAMS: Coming up, here`s to the winners in our shared field of endeavor, that story when we come back.
WILLIAMS: Last thing before we go tonight. The Pulitzer prizes were awarded today and the prestigious prize for journalism in the public service went to the South Florida Sun Sentinel for its coverage of the massacre at Marjory Stoneman Douglas high school.
The Pulitzer for breaking news went to the Pittsburgh Post Gazette for another gun massacre at the Tree of Life Synagogue. "The New York Times" won for explanatory journalism on Donald Trump`s finances, while the staff of "The Wall Street Journal" won for national reporting, their reporting on the president and the hush-money payments. A stunning play called "Fairview" won best drama. David Blight`s biography of Frederick Douglass won for nonfiction. Must be why we`ve been hearing such good things about Frederick Douglass lately. And for lovers of fiction, the prize went to "The Overstory" by Richard Powers.
Needless to say our congratulations to the winners, the runners up, all those writing good words and taking good photos everywhere.
And with that, that is our broadcast on a Monday evening as we start a new week. Thank you so much for being here with us and good night from NBC News headquarters here in New York.
THIS IS A RUSH TRANSCRIPT. THIS COPY MAY NOT BE IN ITS FINAL FORM AND MAY BE UPDATED. END


An interview with Nandita Bal, Chief Product Engineer, Geri-Safe.
Geri-Safe develops technology to prolong the physical independence of senior adults (people over age 65). Our flagship product is Medi-Trust, which helps seniors take their medications properly.
Currently we're trying to solve the problem of medication management: taking pills on time, and taking the correct pills. Medication noncompliance in senior adults is costing insurance companies about $200 billion every year in reimbursement, and human error when sorting medication leads to 125,000 deaths annually. We're trying to address the human error associated with the sorting of pills.
How are you impacting the healthcare industry?
There isn't anything on the market right now like our product. There are pill dispensers, but the sorting is still done by the user. If you have a user above age 65, that could be problematic.
The university, the location, the mentorship, the space, the Hardware Accelerator workshop, the network–those are what made me stay in the Southern Tier.
There are about 55 million people above the age of 65, and 20% of them–so 11 million people–have some sort of physical or cognitive impairment. If you have Alzheimer's, or a vision problem, or arthritis, and you're trying to load those boxes, you are going to make a mistake. At that age, the medicine you take is not a daily vitamin–it's much more critical. A missed medication or an overdose can have some serious results.
I would divide our audience in two: one target audience is the user, and the other is the buyer. The user is an elderly person or a caregiver who can program the device; the buyer is someone like me, or my mother, who would buy this product for my grandmother.
I didn't realize how important customer research was until I came to the Hardware Accelerator! As an engineer, I was so focused on solving the technical problem, that I didn't realize the customer is everything!
There were a lot of things we learned. We wanted a fancy design, but when you actually go to an old person's home, you'll see that there are space restraints, so you want something that fits in the environment and that seniors can keep something on top of. We thought that the more automated our product is, then the easier it would be for seniors. But old people don't want technology; they want it to be simple.
It was the location and the fact that we had a resource like Rev, the workshop, and mentors who can guide you. I was doing my Master's degree project at Cornell University and when I graduated, my professor wanted me to develop my idea further. Rev was based in Ithaca, so I joined the summer Hardware Accelerator program. There are so many events that keep happening at Rev, so the whole community thinks of Rev as the place to come talk about startups. For networking, that was great.
Why did you choose to stay in the Southern Tier and join Rev full-time?
It was perfect for me. I had rapport with Ken Rother (Rev Hardware Accelerator Program Director and Southern Tier Startup Alliance Entrepreneur-In-Residence) and there was a network built around Ithaca. I think Ithaca is a nice place to be because there are enough universities you can draw from, there are some really smart people, and everyone is excited about entrepreneurship. The $2,000 in development funds that I received as part of the Hardware Accelerator program was enough to get a functioning prototype– the 3D printer in the Rev prototyping lab helped us test a lot of the small details of our specific designs before considering manufacturing. And the mentors were always there to guide me, so my work never stopped.
The Hardware Accelerator provided the money we needed to build the first prototype, then mentorship in terms of management, how to get funds, how to talk to people, and how to pitch. It makes me more confident about my project.
How did the Rev Hardware Accelerator impact your company and product?
The Rev Hardware Accelerator gave me the tools to build a prototype that gave me confidence to work in the market. It taught me how to understand my customer segments, and how to develop for them. It gave me confidence that I am building something the community will want. My company's not based on what I think now; the focus has shifted to what the customers want. The Hardware Accelerator provided the money we needed to build the first prototype, then mentorship in terms of management, how to get funds, how to talk to people, and how to pitch. It makes me more confident about my project.
How does your business impact the region?
We decided to go into manufacturing once we are done with the prototyping stage. When that happens it is going to create a lot of jobs. It's not just engineers; it's all the people who work on the assembly line, manufacturing engineers, operations research engineers– all kinds of work.
This industry is very unexplored. When we started about one and a half years ago, there was absolutely nothing on the market that automates pill sorting, so we didn't have statistics or market search.
How do you know that you are on the path to success?
Because we definitely know that there's a market, that there is a need for this product. When I was building this, I built it with my Grandmom in mind. Every person I've spoken with has said it's a cool idea, and people in very high positions hear my pitch, then give me advice on how to develop it further. That's very encouraging.
I have two: If you 100% love what you're doing, if you can do it even when you're not getting paid, and if you get nothing out of it but still want to do it, then that's the only reason why you should do it–because you love it.
The second piece of advice was from my CEO, who was my professor during grad school. You can't delegate talking to your team. If you need a problem solved, you need to be there. If you need to understand someone, you can't have somebody else talk to that person. You have to be there.
Do it only if you love it. But if you love it, don't think twice.

Introduction: Development of medicine and anatomical knowledge in particular attempt to produce a detailed description of the human body. The ultimate goal is a better preparation for the necessary surgical procedures in the anatomical area of interest. Research on the anatomy and topography of the internal carotid artery (ICA) and its following classification systems mirrored this progress and the technical and technological discoveries in the area of imaging and treatment of the ICA pathologies.
Methods: A systematic review of the literature was performed using the MEDLINE database and other offline bibliographic sources. The search included only human studies between 1938 and 2017. All open dissection, endoscopic and angiographic studies were included.
Results: We present the evolution of the internal carotid artery classification systems starting from the classic work of Willis. This development follows the needs for adjusting the ICA divisions to clinical applications, both radiologic in classic angiographic diagnosis and therapeutic through an extensive skull base surgical approaches to more and more popular endoscopic transnasal and other ICA procedures.
Conclusions: As described above, the ICA anatomy and topography still undergoes an extensive variety of research projects which put more and more light on this clinically important and very interesting vessel.

Kailua-Kona es un área designada por el censo situada en el condado de Hawái, del distrito Kona Norte de la Isla de Hawái.

Es el centro comercial y turístico de la zona occidental de Hawái. En el mundo deportivo, es famosa por ser la sede del triatlón "Hombre de Acero" (en inglés Ironman Triathlon).

El nombre asignado a la oficina de correos de la ciudad es Kailua-Kona para diferenciarlo de Kailua, de mayor tamaño y situado en la zona a barlovento de Oahu, aunque normalmente la gente se refiere al lugar como "Kona". Muchos gentilicios en las Islas Hawái se repiten en varias islas, pero las dos Kailuas son el único punto conflictivo motivo de confusión. Según el censo de 2000, la ciudad tenía una población de 9.870 habitantes. Las comunicaciones vía aérea de la ciudad se sirven del Aeropuerto Internacional de Kona.

Kailua-Kona era el principal asentamiento más cercano al epicentro del terremoto de Hawái de 2006.

Historia
El rey Kamehameha I designó a Kailua como sede de su gobierno (ya que al principio era jefe sólo de Kona, antes de unificar más y más zonas del archipiélago bajo su mando), y capital del recién unificado Reino de Hawái. (La capital se trasladó más tarde a Lāhainā y después a Honolulú.) En los últimos años, esta zona ha experimentado un boom inmobiliario y de construcción, impulsado por el turismo y las inversiones.

Geografía
Captain Cook se encuentra ubicado en las coordenadas . Según la Oficina del Censo, la localidad tiene un área total de , de la cual  es tierra y  (10.71%) es agua.

Demografía
Según la Oficina del Censo en 2000 los ingresos medios por hogar en la localidad eran de $40.874, y los ingresos medios por familia eran $46.657. Los hombres tenían unos ingresos medios de $30.353 frente a los $26.471 para las mujeres. La renta per cápita para la localidad era de $20.624. Alrededor del 6.5% de las familias y del 10.8% de la población estaban por debajo del umbral de pobreza.

Lugares de interés

Q: In the context of data usage What's the Difference Between Cloud File Syncing and downloading a file or folder? In my office computer,I downloaded a file from the Internet and put it on a cloud storage, when I go home and open my laptop it synced with my online storage but if I downloaded the same file directly from the Internet in my both places how much data I can save or lost in my home network?

A: If the file on the internet is static, not going to be modified by the original owner or yourself, it makes no difference if you download it again from internet or from your own cloud storage.
If you need to modify the file yourself, the changes you made will be in your local computers synced with your cloud storage. Then you should be careful not to download the file again from internet to overwrite your own changes.
