a gracious wonderfully warm decent man. anyone who wanted to have access to and could. as minority leader of the house of representatives that worked. president of the united states can't do that. this doesn't work. it is dysfunctional. he had watched the nixon white house and i believe he believed part of the reason for nixon's downfall is there was what was called the berlin wall. this tight white house staff system that they called the berlin wall because they both have names that sounded germanic. he did not want that. he had established this and he asked how hague to stay on and then felt he couldn't keep him and al went to allied commander in europe and asked me to come in and i said i wouldn't do it. it couldn't be done. the model he designed was not going to work. he said i know that now but i want to get from where i am to where i want to be. just give a little slack while we navigate to a rational white house chief of staff. >> host: dick cheney said serving as chief of staff as your successor under president ford he had so many times -- that presidents were c

it is a wonderfully inspiring speech. >> although he did not tend to become a democrat obviously. was there any point in your early life actually been anything but republican? >> all my goodness, yes. during world war ii as a young man my father was in the navy out in the pacific o on the ker. franklin roosevelt was about the only president in my lifetime between 1932 and i guess you sworn in and 33, i was born in july of 32. i never knew herbert hoover personally. but franklin roosevelt was the president. he represented the united states of america in wartime. my parents, i and everyone i knew looked to him as the leader of our country, and was enormous the important speaker for young man. >> and you were so taken with stevenson what he said i assume that have something, he ran for congress at the age of 29, very dark course, 1962. most people don't run for congress that early, at least they didn't in those days. it was younger than it is nowadays. what moved you to get in so soon? >> well, i was the longest of long shots. i had been away from my home district for decades. icon f

we have products and they work wonderfully and the prices didn't go. there is an initial resistance, we see it is possible to change this industry and happening very quickly. so i want to commend everybody that has worked on that and everybody who has chosen to think about the research and what they are using. one last reading from the book, this theme and what is possible to do together. this is the- chapter of my book, extreme make over, we need to give the beauty industry, u.s. government and economy a make over. this is a story about 2 of my favorite she ras. the women went to a share holding meeting and carrying 5,000 brooms. in india a broom is a woman's power. by delivering brooms, we are telling them to clean up their mess. chemical melt down spent 20 tons of gas into their city. they are leading the fight to send justice to their people and the worst fate. mothers carry poisons in their breasts. she accepted the 2004 environmental prize. we are not expendable. we are not flowers offered at the profit and power. we are dancing flames commitment

so if somebody teaches a wonderfully mixed student body, i can tell you diversity is a major factor in enhanced learning, and i hope you will consider that and also the fact that after this first year, the budget access is going to fall, in your program is going to have to change dramatically. thank you. [applause] >> good evening, commissioners. i am an educator in san francisco. i wanted to talk briefly about the difference between rhetoric and reality. we talk about sacrifice, sending the notices to teachers, administrators, but you send out notices to 17 administrators and more than 200 of our members. i understand this is in some respected way to get money from the rainy day fund, but there is a difference in what you talk and what you do. the most recent issue, montessori. every single probationary teacher before any of them were evaluated. on top of the, the school district made an announcement. there was a point. there is a reason you made that kind of school, and then you just to yank it away from it. what i am concerned about is that this will be another one of those situatio

farmers market that has been located on that during the warmer months of the year that has been wonderfully successful and has helped to build community. i think this is a very important component of the overall project, to ensure we can build but the playground and a library that is far superior to what we have right now. so i would like to ask representatives of the library -- i want to thank luis herrera and the work he has done, and phil ginsburg, and the city attorney's office. and i want to thank the community for believing in this vision, for moving it forward. i hope that after today there will still be a number of items we need to approve it as a board, but i believe the project is in a place where we can move it forward as quickly as we can. with that, i would like to ask for a first presentation from city staff. >> i am jill warren, a deputy city librarian. last time we were before this committee was to discuss historic issues. we are now discussing the whole project plan. before we start, we have a number of folks here to show their support for the project. we want to acknowledg

some of it was wonderfully obvious. and water goes down hill and collection areas and some of it was breathtakingly vague trying make a billion dollar decision about something. we talked about simple solutions and bold actions and diverse drinking water systems in san diego and we heard about thinking about discipline, winning over regulators and economic development agencies and environmental groups as getting them to work with us. today, we have the opportunity to make it much more useful because it's amply, clear climate change is happen together all of us right now, as water system manager's and we can work together and act together, we can probably be more effective, more quickly. so that's what we're going to try to do today and here's how we're going to do it. we're going to use those five topics up on the screen to frame the sib jekt. we don't want them to constrain, it's just to give them structure. we want to hear from as many people as possible. panelists certainly, but you as well. what decisions you think n

and people say, what a wonderfully successful restaurant they must be making a lot of money. there is this image that somebody is benefitting at the other end of this commercial restaurant thing. i have to tell you knowing many in the commercial restaurant industry it's a very difficult to make a living if you are the owner or manager. more than think of from 24r point of voy restaurants provide a tremendous benefit to the city. there are a lot of people that have jobs in restaurants. suppliers and contractors have impacts throughout the city. we have to understand that restaurants provide social well being for the city. an economic base, this is an important thing and the department of building and inspection i do our very best to resolve restaurant issues. so that we can move along restaurants. one of the big things that hangs up commercial restaurants is the length of time it takes from the concept to the opening your doors and being able to bring customers in. one of my goals here is to try in help you understand how you can resolve some issues and may be how you can desi

a scientist or an engineer and you can put them together and this is what you see that happens wonderfully in places like mit or stanford in the united states where the universities where the smart people and smart ideas are or work very closely with industry and with venture capital people to commercialize those ideas and that's the chemistry we're trying to get as coca-cola carbonation you mentioned graduates one of my colleagues russian journalists talked to graduates are five. of them in the. log cabin me law school in russia nobody could say what's what's written in article one of the russian constitution not a single person and i don't know either what i actually know about american this is something you have to recognize and so what do you think now the quality of recent graduates working if i say do you have the russian graduates in the technical fields i think are generally very good and the we have experience entails that experience with either you or national companies that experience without for for decades there's a great quote here and the weakness has been the. interface int

that's a wonderfully cheap, easy, reasonable green solution. >> green. very green. >> very greefpblet exterior decks -- very greefpblet exterior decks require maintenance just like every other part. these desk and stairs need to be maintained and one of the things you have to do to maintain them is clean the space between the boards. and this should be done every once a year or every season. so if you fail to do that, water starts to get soaked up in all the debris that accumulates between the boards and then starts to rot in between there. so you have to keep that clean. once again that's a simple homeowner thing. you get a little saw blade or a pressure washer or just a saw blade is what i use. get down on your hands and knees and spend an hour and you get it all cleaned out. it's not a big deal. and if you fail to do that, you will be replacing your deck. >> one thing about stairs and really you have to -- if you're rebuilding a set of stairs, exterior stairs, what we try to do now is, if it doesn't have to be a usable space underneath, in other words

and now we want to turn to our very british nick watt about some of the unscripted and wonderfully humanis day, including your very own, nick, your moment in history. >> reporter: well, thank you, diane. you know, if you watch a wedding live as we did this morning, you miss stuff. you know, there's too much going on. so, we teamed up with a lip reader and between us watched the tapes back once, twice, three times more and, take a look at what we discovered. william greeted kate and her dad with a nervous joke. "we're supposed to have just a small family affair." and the ring. what was going on? wrong size? warm fingers? check out the queen, checking out her newest relative. the fashion? well, no one missed princess beatrice's hat. it already has its own facebook page. enough said. ceremony over, kate, "i'm so happy." but it's a long ride, a long day. kate flagged, cue william. "you have to wave back, even if it's too much for you." only one horse bolted. photographed by an abc producer. meanwhile, relief in the abbey that it's all over. yes, you really did just see that. harry rode with

wonderfully. and--just--we have such incredible stories, man. we don't have time to tell them all to you. there's the six bullet story from harry belafonte, and there's--there are stories of joan baez when she was going down and trying to play, you know, in the south. there's stories of all of them. you know, the civil rights people weren't just risking their time or their rep or their career or stuff like we do. you know, they were risking their lives. how do you feel about the generation you grew up with? have they retained the spirit that you had in 1969? hard to generalize. i think largely, yes, because i think most of us came to the same conclusion i did, which is that most of the causes we espoused, we were right about. peace is better than war. racism stinks. civil rights are crucial. you know, and we weren't wrong. we weren't wrong about any of that. we were wrong about the drugs, but we weren't wrong about any of the rest of it. there are several people: mr. belafonte, peter yarrow, who emerge as just heroes in this book, and there are

question is the families i have worked with have been here three yearser and students are doing wonderfully. the moms and dads are struggling. they only want to speak their language in the homege i that the kids respect which is great they keep their culture alive at home but the moms and dads having difficulty learning english therefore struggling with getting jobs and supporting the family. there is a real disconnect and as volunteers to bring them into d my home to give them the idea of thegs l american culture and what we do then they share their customs but yet i sense a they're not totally getting how they can succeed with the work and financially there is some difficulty there.nc what suggestions do you have with relationship building how we can help them lowered to catch the vision of how to be successful in america? >> we have two minutes.wh [laughter] >> that is a lot. >> because i know what that feels like i talk about the generational differences but i think what you're doing is exactly what needs to be done and oftentimes we want to see immediate results and unfortunately it ta

it is a wonderfully inspiring speech. >> although he did not tempt you to become a democrat obviously. was there any point in your early life that you would have been anything but a republican? >> oh my goodness, yes. during world war ii as a young man my father was in the navy out of the pacific on a carrier and franklin roosevelt was about the only president in my lifetime between 1932 and i guess he was sworn in 33 and i was born in july of 32 that i never knew herbert hoover personally. but franklin roosevelt was the president. he representative the united states of america in wartime and my parents, i and everyone i knew looked to him as the leader of our country and it was enormously important figure for a young man. >> and you were so taken with stevenson and what he said, it seemed that had some influence over the fact that you ran for congress at the age of 29, very dark horse 1962. most people don't run for congress that early or at least they didn't in those days as you said. it was younger then it is nowadays. what moved you to get into that? >> well, i was the longest of

you're doing wonderfully. thank you. common sense has demonstrated there is no one in mutable interpretation of the constitution. they have succeeded in not only setting the tone of jurisprudence but also enabling conservative congressmen and talk-show host and the tea party movement to the document's true meaning. any justice who admits basing decision on analysis or even worse apply the broad notion of fundamental justice is derided, has taken on in meaning that is just this side of confidence. but who is really the activist? the justice who admits language itself is more subjective than the chemical makeup of an amino acid or one who assists that he or she can indisputably say what an imprecise phrase means. i find this move to certainty and often smug certainty to be extremely unsettling. the stake is extremely high. to get a sense what happens when a objectivity runs riot, we need only look back a little bit of history and by happy coincidence come in my book. since seen setting is necessary. in the wake of the civi

you know, what do you think is the legacy of that time that youlied through that's documented so wonderfully in this book? how is l.a. education different because of that movement? >> well, before i get into that, i've got to get into my introduction, god damn it. anyway -- [laughter] [applause] the real reason you invited me is because you wanted to see what a real movie star looked like. [laughter] that's supposed to be me there. the movie itself was actually produced simultaneous -- >> the mic's out, they're recording this, so you're on television right now. >> oh, that's great. [speaking spanish] >> c-span. but you have to speak in the microphone. you're missing your moment here on national cable. >> gee, that's wonderful. >> free cable. [laughter] >> all right. all right, so anyway, yeah, so, it took about ten years. so the producer and director asked me ten years before the project would i help them with the project, the movie, "walkout," the story of the kids walking out. just as important, by the way, as what cesar was doing in the fields because his program was in the fields, the pa

question is the family's i worked with have been here three years now and the students are doing wonderfully. moms and dads are struggling. they only want to speak their language in the home which the kids respect. is great that they are keeping their cultural live in their home with their customers but moms and dads are having difficulty learning english and therefore struggling with getting jobs and supporting the family. there's a real disconnect. as volunteers, i bring them to visit my home and experience thanksgiving and christmas and birthdays and things like that to give them an idea of american culture and what we do and they shave their customs and i am sensing they are not totally getting how they can succeed with work and financially hand there is some difficulty. what suggestions do you have for us in our relationship building and how we can help them more to get that vision of how to be successful in america? >> about two minutes to answer that. >> i know what that feels like. the generational differences, different generations -- what you are doing is exactly what needs to be d

he worked out wonderfully because he was actually a library and from 1899 until 1939 that he had thatuilding to play in 40 years. he brought in the library, librarians of the world as a constituency. back in 1896 when their jefferson building was open congress said what have we here we have this huge building, we don't know much about this institution. general casey and mr. swa offered worked together despite the differing tastes and they had hearings on what else to do and they brought the american library association to say what do we do, how do we handle this? putnam and dewey were the two library in to testify and they said you're doing great, folks, but what you need to do is reach out to the library community. you're helping congress and the public and everybody else. and basically that is what putnam did in addition to the services to the libraries they went international, stoppard was an international. in 1907 to buy a wonderful russian collection became the basis of the russian collection. he's the this beautiful building he helped design and as soon as it opens the fire him.

that was mary coulter, she was wonderfully wild in that way. the hotel became like a closet for years and years and years. it closed in the '50s, and a coup from los angeles tried to bring wednesday low, arizona, which at that time no one went to except to stand on the corner like mention inside the eagles' song. [laughter] they really finished it room from room. thank goodness, the railroad had just boxed it up, and mary coulter's stuff all was still there, and they brought it back to life. it's an incredible jewel of a hotel, it has a four-star restaurant in it, and i'll say my friend who is a chef there is now a finalist for an award announced last week, and it's a place people don't know to stop between santa fe and the grand canyon which is the essential tourist route, but if you're on the way back and forth as many people are as they're traveling, you have to stop at winslow and stop at la pasada. >> michael, when fdr dedicated the hoover dam, he said, i came, i saw, i wuss conquered. what did he meansome. >> i think anybody that goes to

all four services and they are wonderfully unique and joint in ways that we hadn't, as i said before i am gipped a few years ago and we need the talent and need the capabilities of all four services. i think the future is very healthy for all four services. there is a tremendously important role for our navy and air force along with our ground forces. it's been that combination over our history that has served us exreppings neal well. and one of those old clauses is let's divide the pie up and you have to do it difficult. and when we see these pressures, we need to lead as the president has laid out and as secretary gates and i talked about, we need to lead with a strategic view, a strategy before we start taking out the meat ax to reduce the budget and how to meet that number and then after that, wheel what -- well, what are we going to do with it and dangerous way to do it. >> you talked about the need for a strategy. do we have one now? >> the framework against which we review our national security requirements is the q. d.r. given the enintensity of the fiscal crisis, we need to

you are doing wonderfully. thank you. [applause] nonetheless and although history to say nothing of common sense has demonstrated time and time again that there is no one immutable interpretation of the constitution. the current crop of value three -- value free justices has been succeeded in enabling conservative congressmen. a number of rabid talk-show hosts, and spawning at tea party movement privy, it insists, to the documents to meeting. as a result any justice to openly admits fate -- basing a decision on analysis or even worse, applying a broad notion of fundamental justice is derided as an activist which today has taken on a meaning that is just this side of communist. who is really the activist? the justice who admits that language itself is a good deal more subjective than the chemical makeup of an amino acid? one who insists that he or she can indisputably say what and emphasized phrase means. i find this move to 70 and i find it to be often smug certainty to be extremely unsettling. the stakes i consider to be

wonderfully, in the last decade the math has come together, and we've realized that what we thought were different theories are actually all the same, just expressed in this a slightly different language. so everything has been simplifying. you know, if you take -- even as a good example, darwinian evolution. the principles of evolution are pretty straightforward, right? nevertheless, they can yield the rich variety of life that we see on earth. the outcome can be complicated even though the starting point is simple. that is the way i would characterize our thinking about certain modern physical theories. the outcome, say string theory in we get into it, extra dimensions, vibrating strings, it seems complicated, but that's like the rich life coming from evolution. the starting point, pretty straightforward. >> i see. so, tell me, what are some of these theories that lead to the multiverse? in your book you describe many of them. i couldn't find the anti one, that's my favorite. your anti person is positive terrors -- >> star trek there. >> right. so do you favor that route to the multive

and so some of those most wonderfully compelling photographs that we have of president kerry in the oval office, clapping at the children dancing around him on the carpet, those are often taken when mrs. kennedy was a way. i think we have time for one more question. yasser spit can you talk a little bit about her understanding of her image and how that would play out during the own asses marriage? >> absolute. a little bit about how mrs. kennedy's image played out when she remarried, and she married of course aristotle on dos -- aristotle onassis. remember the timing of that for her and the country. her brother-in-law bobby whom she had grown so close in those intervening five years from when her own husband died, and bobby who had become a surrogate father to caroline and john was himself struck down by an assassin in june 1968. and mrs. kennedy supposedly commented, our country is just going crazy. and if they're killing kennedys, my children might be next. so she was obviously looking for safety and security, which aristotle onassis represented by having his own island off the coast o

wonderfully in the past decade the matter has come together to really realized what we thought were different were all the same, just expressed in a slightly different language. everything has been simplified. if you take even a good example, darwinian evolution. the principles of evolution a pretty straightforward. nevertheless, those principles can yield the rich variety of life that we see on a. the outcome can be complicated even though the starting point is simple. that is the way i would characterize our thinking about certain modern physical theories. the outcome, string theory, if we get into it, extra dimensions, vibrating strings. it seems complicated, but that is the recess of life coming revolution. the setting point of string theory, pretty straightforward. >> i see. so, tell me. what are some of these theories that lead to the motorist? in your book you describe several of them. i could not find the one where the entire universe, that is my favorite into a person, positrons. antiprotons. your favorite route. >> well, there are many ways. maybe a good place to start with the what

they are a wonderfully military family. wonderfully independent group. they won't ask for help.'s part of what gets them -- you know, allowing them to be as strong as they are. and yet there are -- there are -- we live in a time that has been particularly stressful, at war, multiple deployments, we see see -- my wife debra seeing spouses who have post-traumatic stress, kids, children who are exhibiting the same kind of thing, and again it's back to this connection. so i really do applaud the effort. there's been a lot of work that's gone into it. i'm very thankful that the president and mrs. obama and the vice president and dr. biden has taken this on. it really is a big deal. >> let's turn to the top of the news here. we've just learned that leon panetta will succeed secretary gates and general david petraeus will be cia director. you've worked with both closely. i understand that your policy is not to comment on nominations before they are made by the president. but hypothetically -- [laughter] >> -- are there tea leaves to be read in the appointment of the a military man to h

the very contract they did it, they did it for great britain and is doing wonderfully over there. we know it is possible. i just want to encourage -- i will not go through the rest of the questions on the internet, but it is important and i know you are committed to bringing us up to speed. we will save hundreds of million dollars annually if in fact we accomplish that task. what are the main management and operational challenges that you really faced during the 2010? do not take a long time, but what are your to biggest challenges? >> we had a fantastic team, i want you to know. the folks that followed up on the planning efforts produced a lot of great operations. the chief challenges or software challenges. we had a system that monitored the work flow that was not working properly for a. three weeks. -- for about three weeks. that was very scary. it per along at the end of the first few weeks were scary. but missed out at that. that was the chief management threat that we had. >> ok, for gao and ig witnesses, how are their view done in the estimates on what you think the cost sa

the world war ii memorial has become a wonderfully unique place, a mecca not expected or predicted foreterans who preserved our freedoms. they come by the thousands. some walk slowly and some not at all. they come to recollect, cry tears, laugh, pray, and meet their brothers in a once-in-a- lifetime remember this. it touches your heart. i know. i have taken part in these reunions with others. i try to steal them way to the iwo jima memorial. it is a marine thing. collections are now being recorded for high-school students for generations to come. americans across the country would like to see us face up to the challenge is threatening our future and get the job done. you have shown that can be done. we all come to washington to make a difference. senator bob dole did just that. and with this memorial, he did so much more. thank you.
