Two years ago, in Lisbon, our nations agreed on the framework for transition in Afghanistan that would allow us to responsibly wind down the war. We agreed that this transition to Afghanistan lead for a security would begin in 2011, and that we conclude in 2014. At the same time, we said we would seek a long-term partnership with Afghanistan and the Afghan people. Over the past two years, we’ve made important progress. Our forces broke the Taliban’s Momentum. More Afghans are reclaiming their communities, Afghan’s security forces have grown stronger, and the transition that we agreed to Lisbon is well underway.

 

Meanwhile, protestors outside the NATO meeting probed with the police officers on Sunday. A law enforcement official said at least 45 people were arrested and 4 officers were injured.

 

Turning now to the race for the White House. Its primary day, Tuesday is the day. Voters are heading with the post in O and Kentucky. Primary season is winding down though. After Tuesday’s republican contest, 7 more to go. The Texas’ primary is next Tuesday, then 5 states the week after that, and you talk closest things out in late June.

 

Yeah we’re suddenly stressful, and it’s so much harder than like, like how my wife was, like it has changed a lot, and it’s still different, but I know it’s gonna be better.

 

EF5 is the most powerful and the most destructive category of tornado, and that is what hit the city of Joplin, Missouri exactly one year ago today. More than 150 people were killed. There were homes, businesses, the local schools just destroyed. This is a quick look back at the natural disaster and its immediate aftermath.

 

A lot of us started in shock, because we’ve always expected like go, Joplin is always a place with tornado, misses all we always spend *, nothing ever happened to Joplin.

 

***, with hospital down, the high school down.

 

So that was a year ago. And today Joplin is rebuilding. Officials estimated nearly 130,000 workers have spent hundreds of thousands of hours helping with the recovery process. Juniors and Seniors in high spent this year going the classes in part of a shopping mall. Schools graduation ceremony was yesterday, the speaker was president Obama. And one of this year’ graduates L M, talked about her city’s efforts to move forward.
