[applause] gov. brown: it is a light note. back then, california was amazingly dynamic and it still is. those who live here know this land as unique place which draws people from every part of the world because of the tolerance, creativity and sheer openness. there is much to be thankful for. we live today in a world that is profoundly uncertain. what happens far away can touch us directly. a slowdown in china or turmoil in iraq or syria or anywhere can send the stock market reeling input california jobs in state evenues in jeopardy. and the battles far away sometimes comes right to our soil is the unprovoked and brutal attack in san bernardino. what occurs daily consummate parts of the world could occur here. that is what we have to be prepared and vigilant. i wish that was not the case,
