but if we want the pleasure and the happiness to last and to endure, we actually have to give. we have to make that pledge, because the dance between giving and receiving is specifically what allows for enduring happiness. and i love the word "pledge," because "pledge" means that there's really a trust, there's really a commitment between public television and public television viewers. and that is so different than other media. you know, this is the media that says, "this community out there, we're all a part of this community. and we're all trying to build a better society." and to the extent that we actually make the decision to make a pledge, we're making a promise, too, that we're not just going to be viewers and we're not just going to sit back, but we're going to be active in changing this world. that's right. so much is accomplished and so much is said in a simple act of calling in your financial support to this station. and this break is all about reminding you how important those calls are. you know, i think we should remind our viewers, in fact, right now, about the t

it comes from giving. and the paradox is thon way we could know we're really full is by giving something away and serving someone else. the danish philosopher kierkegaard put it this way-- the door to happiness always opens outward. in other words, genuine happiness is attained not because of some leap into mystical oneness. nue ppess is attained because we have a leap of empathy and service to others. now i learned this stowfuy from two remarkable teachers from ethiopia. i was visiting ethiopian immigrants in israel. it was a cold february day and i was walking around, and i saw ding off to the side. they we ivinan th we bbing their hands. they were cold. and i went over to them and i offered them my gloves. they hesitated, but then one of the boys took the gloves, put them on his hands, held up his hands and just began to laugh hysterically. he had never seen this second set of hands that were warm and scratchy. ( chuckling ) and he motioned to me, figuring surely i must have more extra hands. when it was clear

we expect it of him that he would raise the debate, give us the answer, and at least i was hoping he would give us the counterpoints in the tea party and the sort of libertarian critique dominating politics for the last 10-15 years and further back than that with the rise of president reagan when he began to spread the anti-government theories that led to the destruction of the social contract that had guided our nation, basically since fdr. we have this absence of an ideology standing in contrast to the tea party. the president, even though as i say, give you the caveats, responded with a pragmatism that's so mall eweble, there's no ideology buried within it. that's what troubled many supporters. there have not been lines in the sand such as, you know, an easy one to pick, and i pick guantanamo. i think he was fore closed by pursuing the right solution by congress, but it's harder to excuse, and i don't want to discuss the physical crisis. we can get to that later, but that was hard to excuse his deference to a republican majority that was not there until af

the whole point of this endeavor here with the lafco is simply to give the commission and in turn give the rest of the city information on where we stand relative to some of these other jurisdictions. i think the report speaks for itself. i want to thank our three -- as well as our staff for

what i'm trying to -- in the meantime -- something i want to clarify in terms of views and what you see out the window, they showed a photograph from the window to give you an idea of what you see. i think it is a very specific and somewhat subjective view. this is the view from the same unit looking out. this is modified. you can see there are three windows in question. the left-most window is facing, directly toward the building, the one kevin was talking about, with the blind shot. the curtains were open once. just to show you how much is actually seen of the proposal. we try to find a three- dimensional version of this plan to show you how commissioner antonini, your suggestion of cutting back further to match the diagonal plan, we are already doing a roof there that is reducing mass to a great extent near the peril that -- parapet. that is one of the reasons we did sunsetting. it is going far and above what is necessary to quantitatively guaranteed that light and there are there. commissioner antonini: historically, we do a matching light well. i see the cut from the north- south direction. i am assuming your east-west cut out is the same as his

we started looking at the site, and they were looking at it, and we finally were able to give a little grant called the community challenge grant, and we emphasize the word challenge. the gray arts foundation took up that challenge, and now they are expanding, and now we have fantastic murals open tonight, and they were the first, but they led the effort after the arts commission and grants of the arts went to work along with the mayor's office. i know north dakota is there, and she is working very hard because none of this happen without the partnership of so many people coming together, and all of you have come together tonight not just to help out. you are going to have fun tonight with the three different receptions going on and the parties that are going to go on here, and there will be many more for all of us to be here safely and be here extending all the population to come down here and have great fun, enjoy the cultural arts, as well as the people in the tenderloin, the mid-market, south of market , everyplace else. people want to come gather here. we are doing all the other t

unfortunately the government isn't giving anyone any real options and that's the problem. popular widely unpopular amongst everyone in this in this country but at the same time they're not giving us any real solution they're just giving us threats i think people are becoming more for the time the drachma said the drachma is going to solve the problems here but at least with the drag my view you eat up the debt with inflation if you can't control the government spending which is what we were hoping we would achieve with the introduction of the euro we would have low inflation low government spending so we had low inflation and high government spending so we had massive amounts of debt. i think i think that people are fed up with you here in general that's the major major feeling and they want a return to something some sort of national economy where they can implement a policy that benefits them because right now they understand they're under financial occupation. well the e.u. is trying to blackmail greece delivering an austerity ultimatum said you have a pet constantino co

the agency's. and he says they favor companies from their own country. the u.s.. >> having a aaa rating gives huge advantages. as we see, it should have been stripped of the aaa status a long time ago. that is a huge difference. the official rating means low borrowing costs and gives the u.s. the huge competitive advantage.

supervisor campos in coming days and to see if there are no other ways as the benefits employers -- to see the benefits of employees -- employers give are possible. are we leveling the possibility for small businesses to go bankrupt? [list of names] >> i am a small business employer very good i started my business 18 years ago, and my telephone calls and e-mails were never returned. i would question that they do enjoy use it or lose it. they spend 55%, never to be returned to the employer and the employee. she did not reveal her growth plan, so what those she use? i have over 100 employees. we have always use the services appropriately and paid them out very good -- pay the knot. what we do is provide services for seniors. right now the service is so expensive that they are looking elsewhere, such as an independent contractor or someone who is not criminally background check, so we are able to reduce our cost to our consumers. you are driving businesses out. i think you have responsibility to look everything, not things that happened so quickly that is as did not participate, and i ask that we do participate in this. thank you. >> t

some families saying they do not want to go to hoover, and the staff responsive and suggestion for families who would do the right thing and give people access to middle schools who may not necessarily be in their curriculum -- what would you say to these families? >> on the first question about the program, as we were designing the system, we found one of the greatest inequities' about the old system is a prioritized on time applicants. choice is not mentioned as . tuesday with the same set of priorities all the time -- to stay with the same set of priorities all the time, it would reduce the opportunity or incentive to put a fine choices -- to put down choices they might not want. the program placement fees -- piece i will not be able to elaborate on except that you were suggesting how can we make sure that all of our schools are attractive and what do we need to do to provide that opportunity to families? i think it is part of a broader discussion they are having in looking at what are the changes we need to make. in terms of monroe and some of the families not wanting to go to hoover, i think that is one of the features to

the ideas of individualism true and false. he started work on this with more vigor in the mid-50s. and here is an example of hayek's brinksmanship. he actually convinced the guggenheim foundation to give him a grant so he and his second wife could duplicate 100 years to the day the trip across italy, greece and the mediterranean. so, he took this travel, but of course he could travel a lot more quickly than jon stewart was able to travel so he stopped in cairo to give lectures. the lectures were ultimately published under the title political ideal of the rule of law. and this forms essential chapters in the book of the constitution of liberty. when he returned from the trip, he said in an interview in 1955, the plan for the cause edition$p of liberty stood clearly before my mind. from there, he spent a year -- there's three sections in thep7 constitution of liberty. he spent a year and each then a final year and proving his prose for the entire book. he finished his manuscript on may 8, 1959, which was hayek's 60th earth day. a happy coincidence, but if it is hardly a need to get it done. it was officially published in 1960. as arnold said, did not receive immediate acclamation. its i
