so that's what we do now. one of the questions that the board asked us is well, how did we get here? and so janice guard won couldn't be here tonight -- janice garden who couldn't be here tonight gave us a little bit of history how we got here. he explained that in the 1970's, we had the horseshoe plan where the school district was divided into seven zones and students were transported to support a 4-6 configuration. in the 1980's we launched a redesign and schools were reconfigured into k-5, six, eight, and alternative schools. and the district was divided into feeder areas with walk areas and noncontiguous areas. transportation was provided from the noncontiguous areas to the assigned school. and initially, with the alternative schools, they didn't have a feeder pattern so no transportation was provided. later on, bus service was added from elementary schools to these alternative schools. later, in the early 1990's, they did some minor changes to the feeder pattern. and then in the past decade, we've added r

so it came in just as fast as it went out. so we were bs busy, busy. working 24 hours a day. >> what were the notable jos, did you do the neiman marcus in. >> no. i-mag is a beautiful building, beautifully designed, except all the windows were in stainless steel frames, and the glass that have installed was glass that wasn't tempered, and they were glazed very, very tightly with a putty that had a hardener in it. so it was like they were encased in concrete, essentially. and so there was no room for these things to go, or to wiggle at all. so they all broke. well 85% of them broke. >> so the code requires that glazing not take the load of the building, as the building moves. the glazing is not supposed to be the element that resists the force of the building, because that is not going to work. glazing will break. and we can see now, in almost all buildings, that there is some kind of attachment system that allows the building to flex, and it does not harden. and we very carefully inspect and require a careful inspection of that and you have a handout t

so so even if they manage to assign it to the trust that what they could arguably do is say it's the trust holding it for the beneficiary of the beneficiaries but even so even then who are the beneficiaries they're the investors and and they don't know who the investors are who would actually wind up with this crap or here with the benefit of this property property so so that's why they used the trust actually the whole thing goes back to the repo market which is. that shadow banking system for the large institutional investors these are investors that have more than two hundred fifty thousand dollars. so they want a place a safe place to park their money overnight between investments of the like pension funds mutual funds sovereign wealth funds others great big investors so they're huge amounts of money but they don't they don't actually feel safe putting it in a bank because they wouldn't be covered by the f.d.a. i see insurance because the limit so low so the shadow banking system is the repo market which is mortgage backed securities or various forms of security so it's basically

on and so forth, so a lot of experiments are going on. in china there are more than 300 cities with a population above 1 million. and if you visit second- or third-tier cities now in china, massive construction and also more sophisticated city planning. you know, you see hundreds and thousands of new theaters being built and museums and parks and so on and so forth. and the high speed train will soon connect the whole country and raise it to another level of communication and transportation. so you will see the speeding up of communication and also the spread of information. i don't know what the country is headed for but i think it's headed for. >> rose: for the largest economy in the world for sure. >> i think it's headed to a more open society and also for young people more opportunities. >> rose: why doesn't that take place faster? >> instability is an issue if you have 300 million people migrating -- if you see it, you will be astonished, every year during chinese new year there will be 200 million people coming back home to their ru

and everybody's so nervous.emember the lines. now, to me the lyrics tell the whole story. so if you don't remember the lines, i said, well, what's your attitude? what happened to you that you're singing this song? what are you looking at? what are you concentrating on? is it a woman? you're on a balcony in paris and looking down and this superb woman walks by? or is it, you know, you're in los angeles and you're walking around and you just think, my god, that was a beautiful woman. and a longing stuck. that's when the writers -- >> larry: when you sing, you're thinking everything into every lyric, right? a single lyric. >> yes, yes. i am. but i also put an emphasis on character. who is she? why is she singing it? you know? >> larry: a lot more to talk about with liza may minnelli. returning after the break. ♪ >> larry: we're back with liza minnel minnelli. the new cd, it's brand new. "confessions", great songs you've never heard. concerning "american idol" what do you think of the selection of jennifer lopez and

center yeah so so you know moving you know moving to be measured if i live on the subject. unfortunately norther and the main problem is that i guess the most interesting experiment is still had a fossil of cause this prize really. brings us a little bit behind on this in this rush so to get to those very nice experiments can you tell us what is this most that made experiment and frankly speaking for every single research. might be their own type of experiments because this this material or has a number of very different but very simple properties the mechanical properties the optical properties the. electronic properties for me is the combination between mechanical and electronic properties which are the most interesting constantin you just said in a minute ago that you were in this in this paper of yours for which you got the nobel prize you said that you said i quote we can produce good feeling but as far as i know you are not producing anything or you are interested in production or you just interested in research. well we do research on this material bugs in order to s

and i would say, it's not just so far, so good. it's really been so far, so great. because it has been flawless. as we look at jimmy sanchez's dad. you know he is waiting for this moment, and the applause has begun. jimmy sanchez, just 19 years old. finally being brought to the surface in that fenix capsule. what's dad shouting to him? the chilean television has been saying that sanchez is more anxious than the others, perhaps because he's younger. he has not spent as much time in the mines as others. but he's made his way to the surface. and look at the smile on the face of his dad. and it does take him a few minutes to unhook the capsule and take off all of the monitors that are on them. waving a flag. as well as all of this has gone, we should make the point that one of the things they said is that they were waiting for all 33 of them to come to the surface and they would have a joint news conference but already mario sepulveda has held a news conference. so, we're getting a sense of the excitement. it's almost as if they can't wait to share their excitement with

so the non-structural hazards are also a familiar concern. so when we look at safety? san francisco, the concrete buildings, they were built around 1980 is the source of about 50% of the casualties. that becomes one of our policy directions. our second is the residential wood frames buildings that have a soft story. those are ones that programs are already underway to start dealing with. then the other buildings make up the smaller percent. we can look at losses in a variety of ways. we try to look at them in terms of how they impact san francisco. we feel that in a magnitude 7.2 earthquake. san francisco will lose about 85,000 housing units. buildings with multiple residents and as well as single family houses. when we look at them to see where do those losses occur and what type of build sngs we find first of all 34% or 1/3 or three-and four-unit soft buildings. those are not the ones we're addressing yet. 1/3 are in the types of buildings being considered now by the city. those are soft-story buildings where if five or more -- wood frame buildings, they account for

so it is those two factors. and i think that science now has contributed to our understanding that people with a substance use disorder, they may have had the initial choice to pick up alcohol or another substance, but it's not their fault that they become addicted. and this is something that's been, been around for a long time. but it eludes most of us, i think, most of the time. and the other thing is controllability. science is now, as i mentioned earlier, helped our understanding in, in terms of people's inability, the impaired control which we know is an essential, perhaps the essential characteristic of addiction, is this inability to control, this impaired control over, over use despite harmful consequences. and so this issue of cause and controllability and the science that's, that's really informed that, have really helped i think to de-stigmatize. and we need to get that message out that these are health problems to, that they are treatable. they are probably the most, have the best prognosis of any me

oh, i think so. there's a few other things that are really critical components of adolescent treatment as well. let me just say quickly family involvement is absolutely critical, not just counseling while they're in treatment, but coaching parents how to deal with the ups and downs of post-treatment recovery. well thank you, thank you. greg, let's go to you. i try to get-to get placed in a treatment program and i cannot. my parents can't find anything. is there anything that parents and families can do? yeah. i mean, it's a challenging time for a lot of families. the system that we've set up, you know, publicly and privately, is not the easiest thing to access, you know, behavioral health services. and, you know, there are a lot of stipulations and qualifications that young people need to meet in order to be accepted into a treatment program and have the resources to fund the treatment program. so we do find a lot of young people in that area and a lot of families in that area of not knowing how to a

so how long did mr. khosa had to familiarize himself with the operations that were ongoing on board a deepwater horizon and the crew aboard t deepwater horizon before he had to replace mr. sepulveda on the rig? >> i got an e-mail from the 12th and then we talked at the well site leader meeting on the 14th of april and he also had talked to mr. sepulveda and then he went on the 16th i believe. >> so you knew two months in advance there would have to be someone replacing mr. sepulveda and mr. khosa had approximately five days of advance notice that he was going to be that person. is that correct. >> we met with and knew the person was going to be. >> my question is how long in advance of having to report to relieve mr. sepulveda didn't mr. clues that have to prepare for his duties? >> around five days. >> was the management of change document done with regard to the relief of mr. sapota by mr. khosa? >> no server. >> wireless that not done? >> i don't believe it was required. >> should there have been a fo

to tell them what and what the expert advice is not an issue so your opinion as you said it was so you sign a petition and you try to weigh in meaningfully with you represent you get a phone call you sent a fax you do whatever you can do that the other day a thousand other people going to do the same thing just like you and the twenty five year old going to turn to a lobbyist and say how does this really work so fixing the system i think ultimately comes back to how can we build a platform some way that people can actually see in a verified measured way in public transparently exactly what the public is thinking in a district i don't know i think that that's a great question but i don't sense you know what we're saying here is it doesn't matter the candidate doesn't matter or so we say but i mean the candidates are the ones who who are the public face of it all right so i want to bring up also right now obama's approval rating is again at an all time low i think it's about thirty seven percent which is pretty depressing right what he came in with but so do we say that this is because o

so if medvedev. wasn't able to convince a leave that moscow isn't biased so do you think moscow really is a biased in favor of the army rather than the cool at least in the near got to kind of back reason or what's your approach. i'm not sure if i can say that moscow is really biased in favor of armenia but i do think that moscow has a tremendous amount of influence of armenia and that down at this point in it we are in a very sensitive moment in the negotiations our president. david if has been actively personally involved so what he might be able to do is provide some kind of support to the armenian leadership so that the armenian leadership can take the necessary steps to sign the basic principle agreement that's now being discussed so i think that here maybe there can be also some kind of war public. house a vision of russia in armenia that is supporting this and encouraging armenia to move forward obviously both sides need to be encouraged but i think that really now it's really armenia that nee

so thank you. [applause] >> we have lots of folks -- could actually all of you raise your hand that are involved in the school district, or tark. these are the folks that can answer questions if for you as you're walk along. so i guess we're doing that. >> we're here to talk truancy. we've got a new partnership. we're trying to encourage kids to stay in school. it's really innovative. the whole idea is to try to get merchants and encourage them to help out. instead of just hanging out here in the middle of the day. not to get you in the middle of these things, but we've got a number -- [inaudible] -- just help us encourage these kids. >> kids with their upbringing and their background -- [inaudible] -- the football program getting cut. >> some of them are going to be plumbers or a nasa scientist. we want to encourage them. >> we have academies. so we're putting -- [inaudible] -- we're encouraging everybody to go to college. but some kids are in more technical jobs. >> and that's fine. >> and let th

basically asking for policies that would be very very harmful to them so. that's something i'm always shocked about the news that americans seem to you know come out and protest or vote against what's really beneficial to themselves or at least certain sectors of the population but thank you so much for joining us thanks alina . still to come tonight my unplugged moment concerns the start of the supreme court many cases they've chosen not to hear it's another victory for the n.s.a. and the problems of national security as an excuse to keep all things secret and on a much lighter note we're going to talk about sex new study looks at the sexual habits of americans and i'll discuss it with one cats are about in cars in just a moment. mine. would be soon which brightened if you knew more about the song from tongues to pressure these. stunts on t.v. don't come. showbiz the entertainment value of the insel trade into this presentation high production success it's graphics. all of this is a way to sort of focus people's attention by using techniques that are assoc

so it. i think politically be very difficult for j.p. morgan to declare bankruptcy never rule it out though because that's not what i do i look at things as they are not as i think they should be what's going that what's going to happen no matter what guarantees the bad assets a copy purge from the economy one way or the other that's going to happen now what's going to happen sometime in the future now j.p. morgan has a huge derivatives book we know this and you've done some work and looked at this pretty closely how does their book look these days it's big j.p. morgan's the largest by far i have a graphic on my site that has the sovereign state of j.p. morgan has j.p. morgan with ninety six trillion dollars so emotional to build a value and that outstrips everybody else when i say everybody else that's the entire world ninety six trillion notional value derivatives and people bandy about big numbers out there that the total derivatives books of all these banks are six hundred seventy trillion dollars and it's expanding is it contracting

so, it's just sharter to do so. >> so, do you see yourself instituting these disciplines now for long mean, you talked to michelle singletary. as you describe it, she's hard core. >> she is. >> she wants this to be a life habit of not spending unnecessarily. would you be able to do that? >> you know, i definitely will take some things from the book but to live this way for the rest of my life, no way. >> in terms of you've got to have fast food in there and get your hair done. maybe you can negotiate that would be a necessity getting the hair done on a regular basis. >> definitely, definitely that. you want to buy yourself something nice every now and then. i mentioned to her, you work hard and want to play hard but she talks about entitlement in her book and feeling as if, you know, where you feel as if you are entitle to these things and really you should be being a good steward of your money, but -- >> so, how did she change your thinking on rewarding yourself that rewarding yourself doesn't have to mean in material wealth or material goods but, instead, you're rewarding yourself b

also are so staggering so tell me are these people looking at barack obama to help them some how is it are they looking towards mayor bloomberg to help them you know who they think can solve the problem. well you know they're looking at themselves of course as well many of the homeless people are willing to admit that maybe if they tried a little harder and really tried sticking around more and you know whatever they were doing before the recession because nobody could tell that this this kind of economic crisis would hit the country so the people who are in the situation now yes many of them are counting on mayor bloomberg to do something but a lot of these people are sort of questioning whether or not he's actually going to get anything done and many many have been addressing barack obama there saying that yes they want the president to take care of them because when he stepped in he was saying that this national disgrace to quote him is something that he wants to make getting rid of it he wants to make that his priority but clearly that has not been the first priority on his list an

>> exactly. >> so what do we have here? >> so this is a strawberry daiquiri.s about half frozen right now, and we'll just do a little interim taste test here. >> it tastes good ta me. but besides a well-stocked liquor cabinet, sheri has another secret ingredient to her frozen treat: california- produced milk. she only uses premium milk with the high butterfat that is so rich and creamy you can taste it in every bite. and for that, she relies on the hundreds of dairy farms that call california home. one of those farms is the giacomazzi family dairy in hanford. for more than 100 years now, they've taken care of the land and the countless number of dairy cows they've had on the farm, all in an effort to supply healthy, wholesome milk to people across the nation. >> it is my responsibility as a dairy farmer to not only produce a very-high-quality product that has amazing nutritional value, but also to do it in a responsible way. animals as part of our family in addition to being part of our business, and so our values require us to treat them with respect and make

so check it out.ach other and she -- she goes to pull my pants and my underwear down but when i had gotten cleaned up so quick, i didn't know all the fake blood ran, so -- >> jimmy: oh, no. >> my genitals were covered in fake dry blood. and she looks and then she looks up, i have never seen someone so bewildered. and i look down and then i just stop and i went, what did you do? [ cheers and applause ] and then -- and then i was like, no, it's fake blood, not real, it's corn syrup. go ahead, taste it. >> jimmy: that could potentially spoil everything. >> mashed potato. french fries. >> jimmy: i don't know what that means. >> it sounded great coming out of the mouth. >> jimmy: okay, so -- did you retire from touring? is that true? >> what am i, jay-z? >> jimmy: i don't know. >> no, i retired but not from entertainment. i retired from bird watching. i did that -- >> jimmy: you did? not doing that at all? >> i really sucked at it. i knew nothing. i basically -- i would see a bird, i would go, ahh. that's

this is the man idea so so so as usual one of the main main aims of your work as a minister of justice is to make the punishment and never double is that true just ok you said recently that long imprisonment only leads to receipt of isn't as the prison inmates lose touch with the society and become part of the criminal world law rather than staying a part of the society how long does an average prisoner say stay in confinement today and will it change as as a result of the new floor as i hope so and so this is the main the main goal of the . draft law that has been discussed and probably will signed by a president in very few of the russian parliament so we hope there. average terms of imprisonment. will come close to a probably two or three years average i think really and today it is i think today small a six or seven months six are. ok today the prosecution is asking for fourteen years more in prison for could get across can lead to if they are accused for four for economic fraud how does this correspond to the principle of the reform that we're talking about. well what about going

i think so because these, these terms are so embedded in, in our culture, in our psyche that it takes a long time for them to, to change. even in spite of, as daphne was saying, you know the new scientific knowledge we have of the nature of these disorders. talk a little bit about that. well in terms of, we've, we've learned a lot in the last 25 years in terms of i think particularly neuroscience findings, that have really elucidated the mechanisms, the kind of brain damage that occurs as a function of chronic exposure to alcohol and other drugs. and this has really helped us really understand what's really going on and why people who historically have been viewed as having weak character and weak will, is really a function of brain damage which impairs their ability to regulate those impulses. and that's i think very, very important. and i think given that understanding, i think it's very important that we establish and convey the new terms as people have talked about. for example, calling it a disorder, if it's a disorder, a substance abuse disorder, and of course when you use the t

so it's only been now in the last six weeks or so about 2%, 2%,2.5%. but this is going to be a gradual process. and what matters to us is that they continue to let their currency rise to reflect those market forces in that case. and if you look at the last time china moved in this, charlie, between 2006 and 2008 china let their currency appreciate against the dollar by about 20%. now, that was a gradual process then, too, but that was a very substantial, very important change for them. now, they stopped that process in the crisis because, frankly, they were worried about the state of the world and they thought a period of stability would be good and that was a responsible thing. what we want to do is to maximize the incentives they have to let that process go as far as it needs to go. >> rose: how do you maximize these incentives. >> china takes a long view of these things and a fraction of the leadership in china understand that it is very much in china's interest to do this and there's two reasons why that's the case. one is that china is a large ind

but so they -- >> so they had some degree of success working together and had a very good relationship. but you know, as far as what credit someone should or shouldn't get for secretariat, i'm never forget when we were shooting out on what was meant to be the chenery family stables and farm ranch, eddie was there the groom. and he was telling me one day that he used to take him out and you know, gallop him in the mornings. and talked about it for a long time. and then i said so what, i mean, what did that feel like under you. and he said that felt like you were just on a big, big motorcycle. and all you had to do was go like that. >> rose: that's great. >> it's fantastic. he had such a power and speed. >> and self-possession. >> rose: self-possession. >> absolutely. >> self-possession which is a quality that we all hope for in our children. and penny, it is funny because she loved riffa ridge so much, her horse that won the kentucky derby the year before with lucien. but he was the underdog horse. and in some ways, one knows how to nurture that along a little easier. you feel a little

and so it is a 24-hour open channel. right now, they are in communication with them and the family members have have had a chance to visit with their loved ones down there via that video conference on seats and sundays much they were each given about eight minutes to talk to their family members on the surface, so, it is about as advanced as you can get. and as we see here what looks like some -- yeah that is the very top there, that was the very top of the -- of the cable there that they were attaching back on to the phoenix. unfortunately, the distance from where i am and where the engineers are is just a little too far for them to explain exactly what's going on. however, we are getting regular updates from the minister of the mines here, and he said, again, a two-hour delay and that is where we are right now, chris. >> is this state-of-the-art equipment and methodology is this something that we would be using in the united states if we have a mining disaster, something like this in the future? >> absolutely. it is de

up so that's some great news for a lot of people who are wanting to see so that's the bright side ofhis storm system. now we've got another storm system that we're watching, too, across the arklatex region. no warnings right now but discreet super cells it looks like that may be developing in the area so if there are any warnings, anything for you to be concerned about, of course, we'll pass that along to you. that system moves to the east for tomorrow and we'll still be dealing with that windy wet weather, and by the way, that storm system will make its way all across the country and it will be affecting really everybody at one point. want to show you the latest on richard which is now a hurricane, if you haven't been paying attention. category 1 with 85-mile-per-hour winds, slamming into belize and moving across the yucatan peninsula, and that is going to be staying well clear, we think, of the united states and there you see the forecast path. want to show you a couple of pictures. megi, the typhoon that slammed into the philippines and caused heavy flooding, slammed china yesterd

doing so so so are you sure that all may we be sure that this wouldn't have happened without the british involvement and i mean the the attempted arrest wouldn't life. no it's not clear whether it wouldn't have happened whether prince use the paf and his accomplices whose whose role has been widely of course reported not least by you support himself would have had the courage to go ahead it isn't entirely clear but they certainly had the anger and the hatred of rasputin that drove them forward what happened was the use of power of a friend of use of power when he was studying the oxford man called oswald rayna was a member of british a british intelligence in russia at the time he obviously was still close to use a path and a plan was there for hatched between them whereby both sides would get what they wanted miss smith we we always knew that respondent didn't die quickly but so far we read that that the explanation for this was his extraordinary strength of this extraordinary man now you explain it differently you said you're right that he was actually tortured before he was shot so so

so so not really but the political class almost unanimously wants to support it so there's some dissidents but it's part of the german reason of state that we're good europeans that we're good citizens of the world but. for this we've forgotten and that was my what my dissertation was all about fifteen years back but we forgot that germany also has interests national interests of its own which of course we should cooperate and of course we should be good partners but we don't have to do everything and so but the political class is firmly behind the euro so in this case it doesn't matter what the population is thinking are you one who believes that as a concepts the euro is fundamentally flawed basically within a currency area have to have flexible factors of production capital labor goods industry and we don't have that in continental europe labor is not moving freely capital is moving freely goods are moving freely but as long as you don't have fully flexible markets you don't have an optimum currency area and also between germany austria the netherlands the benelux states we did have a d

so that's what's going to come. the wise because the american people believe this president and the democratic congress has overreached a lot of voters who will come out and vote republican this year, voted for barack obama in 2008, but they thought they were voting to change washington. they didn't think they were voting to change america and their say in this administration and this congress try to change america to move us away from the free enterprise system to more government control of our economy and the resistance to it. they're resentful of the reckless spending, the government controlled health care taken of the student loan industry, trying to impose costs on energy and the tax regime and they reject and republicans to sh to check on that. >> first of all, thought to be here at the chamber of commerce. i'm just wondering which countries will pay my fee. china, saudi arabia. it is great to be back in the chamber here. i think of the senate is probably somewhere around six or seven feet. i think most people

>> i think so. yes. i think that drawing is i think is extraordinarily helpful in terms of communicateing and she it's still something we place a very, very high value on as a practice. we attract young graduates. the age of the practice is 32. it's the same age as when i started it. >> rose: this is a clip from the documentary, "how much does your building weigh, mr. foster?" there's a clip here about habit of drawing. here it is. >> norman never stops drawing. he communicates in the most effective way through a sharp pencil and a beautiful block of paper. fresh note pads and freshly sharpened pencils just in case something comes to him. upon he's always drawing, drawing, drawing, drawing. it's the way he thinks. it's the way he argues points. you k see the buildings take shape. his lines are very spare but very expressive in a very economical way, just like norman. the view he had went right past his window at eye level, and high would be out there looking at these big, black steam engines rushing past

far they're achieving so much we now have women c.e.o.'s of these giant corporations but i think that it doesn't work the same way for the average working american one well i think we really need to go when you're looking at women's rights and sort of advances for women in in the workplace them in childcare and issues like this in maternity leave we really need to go back to basics yes we have a woman who was a vice presidential candidate yes when does a presidential candidate get the speaker of the house the woman but for the average working mom have things changed and they really haven't if anything we've gotten harder in terms of working class mothers women are make up sixty eight sixty eight percent scuse me of minimum wage workers so we're we have you know we're talking about a lot of women here who are affected by this issue for example here in d.c. child care costs about fifteen hundred dollars per month per child and there's no you know free universal preschool so if you want to go back to work who is going to take care of your chi

so this makes the u.s. as the records says the saudi arabia of gold he also goes on to talk about having this alleged gold having the alleged eight thousand tons of gold and by the way it hasn't been audited since i think the fifty's or something a full audit and having this six thousand tons that they claim they can just confiscate from germany france and other nations that have some gold in the u.s. in a way the fed can afford to trash the paper. experiment and risk trashing. the dollar we could just go back to pretty easily the worst work can. the u.s. is trying to win the currency war right now by creating tens and tens of tens of trillions of new paper dollars to debase their own currency to try to keep the u.s. competitive somehow versus other other countries to currency are on the way out as a result of the u.s. giving us a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head of the economy by flooding the world with trillions and trillions of dollars more dollars and so this is plan b. if the u.s. doesn't win t

i still look for it. >> jimmy: that's so cool. and, so wait.ing the family cab? >> well, you know, we'd do things like take friends to jones beach, or we went to great adventure. you know, 'cause we had the car. we could actually have friends and take them places instead of public transpiration. the monkeys tore up the car, though. they do that. they rip off the taxi sign and the -- once they got a hold of the medallion, he's like, "no, that's too expensive." >> jimmy: wait, where was this? >> great adventure. do you remember in the '70s -- you weren't around. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: yes, i was. yes, i was. >> i know. >> jimmy: but great adventure, they had -- >> it was a theme park, and they had wild animal rides that you could take your car through. >> jimmy: with actual animals? >> oh, yeah. >> jimmy: they weren't rides at all then. >> well -- >> jimmy: i guess the car was the ride. >> you bring your own ride and try to make it through. >> jimmy: wait, you took your dad's cab, or was dad driving the cab? >> oh, he was driving. i was, like, 9.

and so you know little lessons learned why that was so and so now we have a few we have these are your photos hanging in the background and you know running out of time unfortunately but what you see today is the exact same thing that you saw on nine you while i was putting these together for just just to show a theatrical production of. cart runner and while i was in the middle of just putting the show the bit of a show together i under the new york times and we just saw there all that rubble and the guys walking in the rubble and i saw almost an identical picture taken three weeks ago so after almost a decade you still have people living in the in the rubble you know kabul. they still haven't they they still haven't been given homes they're still desolate they're still they're still carrying water up hills and that's and that's in the safe area and that's where we are today and you know this is and this is exactly why we're doing the show to question why it is exactly the same way and why right over there steve thank you so much for joining us welcome all right that's it for tonight'

so the bicycle is in it's own right, so to speak, the third kind of transport. so what are we planning for? we are also focusing quite a lot on commuters and the goal we have is focusing on commuting. and we are waiting for the 50% which i told you and the most recent figure is 37%. we have 37% already. we are very much interested in the in other groups as well. we're looking into the potential of how to reach the goal. i will not go much into the strong cyclists. a lot of these people go long distances in copenhagen. tc[the young ones, they shoulde a chance also. here you have a situation with an intersection which affects the cyclists. there are more visible. -- they are more visible from the cars. we intend to cooperate with09gze society on the other side for how we can improve the possibilities. if your cyclist,, it is different than if your car driver. we're very much interested in a lifestyle if you live in copenhagen, and is very important that you can bring a bicycle in on public transport. that is possible on the regional trains. there are some rooms in

so what happened? he designed his own option based on a memo gates sent and something gates said at one of the meetings, "well we can thin out the forces in 18 to 24 months," and obama latched on to it like a dog taking a bone and said "okay, we're going to start getting out july of next year." >> rose: give me now at this time a sense of the president as he went through this. >> i picked this as the window into who barack obama is, because he's very cerebral. he gets it in the sense he realizes this is a consequential decision. this is going to reverberate through history, what happens in this war is something we can win or can we neutralize afghanistan and pakistan? and he starts out determined to make it the good war because he said iraq was the war that we should not have fought. he gets caught in all kinds of traps and the traps are laid i think in good faith by the military. they always want more troops. give me more troops. >> rose: well, also, there the argument going into iraq is that they did

franklin: so it's very expensive. the bottom line is, we, as atlantans, as georgians, don't have a choice to protect the river. we need to leave it better than we found it, and it's really been a political advantage for me, not a disadvantage. people laugh about me being the sewer mayor, but they remember what i'm doing. griffin: we want people to understand, when they see one of our work crews out working on the mains, that that work is necessary in order for them to have good clean drinking water or to have a good, functioning wastewater system. franklin: you don't put a roof on the house one time. you don't fix the plumbing one time, any more than i get my hair done one time. if we don't continue to invest for the next 20 years, we'll find ourselves back at the same point that we were in the late '90s. if we don't protect water, we will be without water. we will be without industry, we will be without jobs, we will be without a healthy economy, and our people will be sick. so we don't really have a choice. we're go

so they were there during the day. so you get a double whammy there. you try to hope you're doing the work during the day when everybody's not there because they're at the office or at their place of work. but it can be done. on the commercial one, the only way it's going to be possible is if they can relocate the business. there's no way around it. we're dancing around that issue a long time. the only way to do it -- [tone] if we have an earthquake, then they will be out of business anyway because the building will fall down. so you can either do it under a controlled circumstances and anticipate as much as possible, control it, mitigate as much as possible. or you can wait until the big one, as they call it, comes and then the decisions will be made for you anyway. and it will be red tagged and they'll all be out of business. if we do it beforehand, they may be able to stay in business during that period. thank you very much. chairman murphy: thank you. further public comments? seeing none. >> we can move on to item number eight. discussion and possi

so i want to echo that. another thing i would say is dcyf, we've recently submitted to the nccd the 13-city plan that reduces community violence and it's an effort to bridge all different departments. we've had letters of support from all the departments we've mentioned already involved with the truancy reduction initiative and we've identified five major goals that reduce violence and that includes legislative support, that includes education and work force, it includes community safety and community policing. it also includes really looking at re-entry services, bridging that gap for the 18- to 25-year-olds. so developing these plans and making them live and assuring there's a department that consistently tracks and meets all the goals that are met in our plans is also really important so i'd love to share the 13-city plan in the future with some of you and i know we have panz to meet with supervisor dufty and a couple of other board of supervisors to share more about these plans. but again, collaborative

so sweet.he bride was wear something old, something new, something fried, and something dipped in chocolate. [ laughter ] this is weird. a man here in new york said his cell phone saved his life by blocking a bullet when he was shot. in response, the person sitting behind him in the movie theater was like, "that was just a warning shot, buddy, okay? put it on vibrate." [ laughter ] check this out. 175 women here in new york city auditioned this week to be the next "playboy" playmate. [ audience oohs ] yeah. the way the audition works is, you take your clothes off. [ laughter ] and finally, ryan seacrest's old house just went on the market for $14.9 million. [ audience oohs ] yeah, he calls the property "casa di pace," which is better than the name he originally wanted, "metro di sexual." [ laughter ] ladies and gentlemen, we have a great show. give it up for the roots! ♪ [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: we have such an awesome show tonight. we are flipping out. i am so excited. one of my comed

so there is another incentive, two ways of lowering the cost. one is that rebate payment that i talked about with the state. this is from the federal government, ok. this is tax incentives. you have to have tax liability. you have to pay taxes to make this thing valuable to you, but most people do. the law is written at 30% of the cost you can have a tax credit of 30%. let's talk about real numbers. what am i paying now and what am i going to be paying in the future? if i can make money today on my monthly payment and go green, why not? solar kind of reverses the effect. it's like tax brackets. the return on investment typically is higher if you got a big bill. there is also another thing about time of use rates. i want to go over it very briefly. it does have some effect and you will hear it about on your bid. the time of use rate is a way that you tilts are trying to help -- utilities are trying to manage their peak demand. you charge people more during peak periods. you make it up to them by c

helmets and body armor and so on. and who win the hearts and minds of the people all this sort of thing and there's abundant evidence that something else was going on at the same time that that was simply a propaganda thing for fooling people and therefore that these abuses in fact. the inspiration for them comes from the law the idea that compounded actually told soldiers to be. very heavy handed and to treat iraq he's quiet for the end so and i think that's really the number one thing that the stake the reputation of the army kimono the military's very interested in learn. lessons i mean that's one of the things that's come in very much in recent years that you you constantly strive to learn lessons from what you do so that you supposedly do it better next time etc so that even for their purposes you would think that having this potential source of information not not something that you would simply analyze completely every time you've finished with it but simply put it somewhere for future use so that if you do an
