there's the freedom class led by lockheed martin and the independence by general dynamics and also the usa of mobile alabama the cost of those vessels have already doubled from two hundred twenty million dollars per copy to four hundred eighty million and now in the president's fiscal year two thousand and twelve budget we see it as to meet and cost of five hundred and thirty seven million for the l.c.s. one and six hundred fifty three million for l.c.s. too so it's not cheap it's rising in price each year and most importantly are these vessels even going to work apparently there's a little bit of a problem between building the vessels and the mission modules our guest tonight is going to tell us all about it here to discuss this is paul mccleary reporter for defense technology international thanks so much for being here and i'm thinking ok so give us some of the details fill us in on exactly what the problem is with this littoral combat ship program so the ships are being built but then when it comes to the weapons systems there's a bit of a time lapse yeah the mission modules i mean

that doesn't happen in fact a group that's backed by eighty one major companies like mcdonald's general dynamics and i.b.m. are all teaming up to try to stop these new rules. i wonder why they'd be so posed to regulations that would force companies to report the pay of both boss and employee maybe it's because we in say a disparity between the two are poor from the economic policy institute shows that the average c.e.o. makes the read hundred times more than the average worker and although our country's faced major recession c.e.o.'s pay has managed to jump up twenty seven percent so it looks like some people out there aren't facing tough times frustrating isn't it and what's more frustrating is the fact that this has become a partisan issue here in washington some republicans in congress say that posting the comparing salaries is quote useless of course they're going to say that right when they're always on the side of the corporations meanwhile also the democrats are arguing that not showing the gap between the positions only masks the growing pay disparity problem in the u.s. . but it's. live

because this is your city hall and our city hall, and the arab community is the dynamic community that has been here for generations and has contributed significantly to the vitality of this city. like michael said, giving the award to the arab film festival -- it is the premier arab film festival in the nation. for over 15 years, they have been portraying films that do not only represent our rich heritage but kind of dispel myths and stereotypes of the arab people, who they are, and giving these films an audience that would not usually see them. even though it is through the art and fun, it is a powerful and strong message, and i urge you all to support the arab film festival because they do so much work for our community, and we do not really realize that. we have a fun program for you guys tonight. first of all, like i said, asserting our narrative as arab- americans is very important. through our historic legacy, we have had poetry being a crucial and historic part of our culture. old tradition is a very important part of arab culture, so we will be starting with two pieces from two arab-american women that are

will a lot of opposition to funmental tax reform that creates a much more powerful and dynamic tax code that will generate revenues. the way i pu it is this: if you were to look at our income tax co today, i don't think you would find very much disagreement that it would be hard to create one that is more complex, more unfair, more expensive to comply with and more anti-coetite to u. businessnterests globally. and if we address those problems in our tax code, we will actually be able to reduce rates and increase revenue. and i don't really think there's an argument with. at >> al, let me just add.... >> hunt: senor warner, let me ask you this, though. speaker pelosi said on the other hand fine, we'll have a package but no social security and no medicare. can you get a package that... the scopthat you want without entitlements? >> al, i don't see there's any what that yocan solve the problem of the debt and deficit without looking at both sides of the balance sheet. you have to look at spending, that includes entitlements. you have to look at revenues in a way that i think generates growth. one of the thin

it has been augmented of late with the ability to dynamically spinoff new instances of server applications in response to spikes in demand. the general concept called cloud bursting allows you to do that across multiple cloud vendors, so you could do it across amazon and various other people say you could get geographic diversity and so on. people doing this extremely well, for example, would be netflix. many of you in this room i'm sure use the netflix. what they did is dynamically throw what is this is as more and more people click on movies that they want to watch. so then what they are doing is as the need scales, they then have the ability -- they pay them, and, of course, it drops off as soon as the need drops off as well. so they end up essentially paying for average demand. the technology is widely deployed around the world. >> as kind of a follow-up, individuals often use cloud services for backing up their computers. are we about to see people using their computers to back up their clout services to guarantee that they hold on to their data? >> you are at the tip of a very interesting iceberg. go 100,000 miles in space and

we heard from general for the notion the validity of social constructs. being dynamically driven by, in my mind, american values. what americans will like in the future, we are hearing about intermarriage and interconnection and enter linkages, there's probably no way to predict that other than a group driven by these american values, through highly fluid dynamically driven social constructs, and that they have changed and are changing more quickly and are likely to change. we've heard about a new immigration way, and the interesting thing -- i remember something in the presidential campaign of 2008, someone went out and polled everyone and said, who will not vote for barack obama because his father is of african descent? 80% said i didn't care for 20% said i care. that means those is that i care, they are racist, because they were making a decision that they were unwilling to vote for someone because of the racial heritage of the father. i said to myself, great, that means we have 80% for seemingly not racist. so i said to myself, that is fantastic and to you run the numb

down and the tax expenditures and tax credits come out, this will be generated through economic gains up to $1 trillion worth of dynamic gains. and $1 trillion worth of the benefits will go to reduce the deficit. after that, the money will go to lower tax rates additionally. >>stuart: there is plugging of tax loopholes, is that correct? >>guest: yes, that is the elimination of tax credits and expenditures and we have $1.1 trillion of those a year and this takes $100 billion of those away net-net a year. >>stuart: the president was optimistic about this plan. and he was saying it is bradley -- bradley consistent and i am surprised with the reduction in income tax rates does he go along with that? >>guest: it is paid for by taking away deductions so in essence for certain high tax income they pay more and certain high tax people pay less but it depends on what the committees do and how the mix of that is depending whether you pay more or you pay less. but on net i would say if i were talking to conservative oklahomans it is a wash overall on tax deductions right if you. but the future would be that after you do this firs

generation is not one we can afford to pay. let's make today a day we squeeze the value from walking. when we leave today, we must walk the talk. our dynamic panel that will get engaged on this topic for today's topic. guns and violence, what's working, what's not. first we have mrs. smith. she's's senior advisor to mayor gavin newsom. david onick. malik senfero. director of bay view safe haven. children youth and families. cheryl davis. momagic. last but not least, we have jenay. >> we have tyre and then we have cheryl. john. i have a question for you. i hear there's a summer school safety plan that started in may 2007. >> they were 4 partners that collaborates on looking at summer school sites. the 4 were the mtap with muni, the youth services with san francisco police department and the security guards through the san francisco unified school district and d.c. yf. we rolled out responsibilities and it was within the scope of work we were doing and to form what that looked like. they are going to be the primary lead but have support of m tap to deal with interventions outside the perimeter the school. and the police department was a supp

general manager said the p.u.c. owns the facility and that means we are responsible, reliable, we put money in and the hope is we don't get stuck on the dynamic who owns the building. i think that the truth is we want to collaborate with the southeast community facility commission and community members as we think about the maintenance, upkeep and how to make the building vibrant with what everybody was hoping would happen.

general manager said the p.u.c. owns the facility and that means we are responsible, reliable, we put money in and the hope is we don't get stuck on the dynamic who owns the building. i think that the truth is we want to collaborate with the southeast community facility commission and community members as we think about the maintenance, upkeep and how to make the building vibrant with what everybody was hoping would happen. the next slide. 9 consensus from much is this is not living up to what was promised and i think that whether it is with regard to the programming and being a place people are using and finding a resource or esthetically what is happening in the building. our commission adopted a community benefits policy in january that really provides a framework as we thought about

what's the dynamic as you see it now between the two of them? >> they insist publicly and their aides generally insist privately there is no space. but, michael, you and i both get paid to pay attention to this stuff, on a minute grain or basis, if you look at it, it certainly seems like john bane boehner wants to do something big. whether he thinks it's important for the country, whether he thinks it's important for his speakership, or just the right thing to do. he seems more incline dod do that. eric cantor has more held back tea party line that there cannot be tax revenue increases. it's just going to be hard. it doesn't mean a deal can't happen if there are no revenue tax increases but i will tell you, you just heard steve israel, nancy pelosi, chuck schumer, harry reid, they're going to howl if there is a deal made in which there are spending cuts in which medicare or social security comes in for cuts and there are no significant tax or revenue -- meaning, barack obama, not good if you're a democrat running for the house or senate. >> when you say no significant tax increases, you're talk

dynamic to the front line. the way that we conduct warfare is constantly involved -- devolving. longer first-generation and type of maneuvers that required total upper body strength and hiking 4 miles and doing hand combat. that is very important right now on the battlefield, forces are finding themselves not only with infantry but also diplomat and peacemaker there is a necessity to have the role of discussing to find out ways to have conflict resolution with the birth -- what ever we have it. >> host: also the upper body strength is important but we do find women have better endurance on average can run or into were more -- and two were more. evade different sets of skills that requires both sets to be the most effective military that we have. how do the guys feel having women in the overall? you have some very interesting snippets about for example, one of the the tenants who really did not appreciate you being around 212 points. there are growing pains. it is not just boot camp then you are a marine. it takes awhile to understand what it is. it could take years. many times in the exemplar, sometime

, in the next generation or so, first and second- generation latinos will become a majority again within the latino community. that is a shift of dynamic again. what accounts for the fact that, even though objectively, we are more integrated, there is more division and more rancor and more partisanship -- my colleagues all have their own ideas. i would like to throw out two factors which might not otherwise be discussed. i think they are internal and external. in 1961, there was an establishment that repressed expression of a lot of the division that did exist. you did not have 900 channels. the media were controlled by mostly northeastern elites, white males, and certain things could be expressed. you did not have the equivalent -- you did apple local level, the county guy with the radio show -- you did at the local level, the county guy with the radio show. it existed by excluding people. there was a total chaos. things which always existed are now being expressed in a way that they were not in the past. the other idea before iraq up the other idea, before i wrap up, -- the other idea, before i wrap up, the country literally tore its

there are interesting differences in the dynamics, michelle bachman does much better among men, and rick perry a again women. jon: generallyi mean the more interesting race, i suppose, for media watchers is the race for second-place. when you put mitt romney up there against president obama he actually wins 43-42%, that's got to be inside the marriag marginf error, though. >> i would consider that a toss up. the last time we had an incumbent president in the race, howard dean was a frontrunner e polled best against george w. bush. as soon as john kerry became the frontrunner he polled the best. if anybody bests mitt romney i would expect their numbers to improve. mitt romney is getting 78% of the republican vote for rick perry it's only 69%. a lot of those republicans would come home if he won the nomination. jon: as you were saying before basically anybody who has a big r in front of their name polls pretty well against the sitting president right now. >> yeah, again, the president's numbers are consistency in the 40s no matter what republican is there. if you get to some of the lesser known people like herman cain or jon

dynamic to the frontline and combat is always changing. the way that we conduct warfare is constantly evolving. we are no longer doing these first-generation force on force types of maneuvers that require that we have you no total upper body strength, that we are hiking for miles, that we are doing hand to hand combat and sure those skills are very important but right now on the battlefield forces are finding missiles confronted not only as infantrymen, but they are also fighting this ultimate role of diplomat and peacemaker where there is a necessity to have the role of discussing and finding out ways to -- combat resolution with whatever culture we are dealing with. >> host: even on the athletic field we found when we do the testing sure the guys have the upper body strength and that is important as mono e mono combat i would say that we are finding that women have better endurance. marathon runner women for example on average can run, can canada where more than the long trail if you will. so those -- women just bring a different set of skills to that and i think it requires both sets of skills to be the most effective military that we h

dynamic to the front line, and the combat is always changing. the way that we conduct warfare is evolving. we are no longer giving the first generation force on force maneuver that require that we have total upper body strength and we are hiking for miles, we are doing hand-to-hand combat and sure, those are important. but right now on the battlefield forces are finding themselves confronted not only has come to know, infantrymen but also finding themselves in the role of diplomat and peacemaker where there's the necessity to have the role of discussing and finding out ways to have conflict resolution with whatever culture we are dealing with. >> host: even on the athletic field, we found when we do the testing sure, they have the upper body strength, that's important and the, that i would say, but we are finding of the women have better insurance, marathon runner women on average can run, can endure more of the long trail issue will come so those are very -- the women treated different set of skills to that, and i think it requires both sets of skills to be the most effective military that we have. so, how do the marina guys feel ab

in his book in the next generation or so, first or second generation will become a majority again within the community and that shifts the dynamice week ended after world war i and the european ethnics native-born and assimilated so what accounts for the fact even though objectively we are in my opinion there's more division and rancor and partisanship. my colleagues have their own ideas about this. i would like to throw out two factors which may not be discussed. there's internal and external. the internal factors 1961 there was an establishment that repressed the expression of a lot of the division that did exist. we didn't have 900 channels with the john birch society channel, and black panther channel. the media were controlled by most the northeastern elite white males and certain things could be expressed. so, william f. buckley jr. and george will and expressed the right but you didn't have the equivalence -- you did at the local level. there was the county radio show who was the demagogue say you have an artificial homogeneity that was policed by this establishment, which is broken down for the most part a thing to be we

white house the dynamic according to them, they said the dynamic changed and the white house began to pull back on the things they said had been generallyeed to. that's where they stand at this point. >> right now they are reporting that the speaker of the house has informed the president that he is suspending calling off all of the negotiations to try to reach a compromise formula that would allow the united states to raise the debt ceiling by the august 2nd deadline, is that right? >> sluths right. we have been told in this briefing room they received, they will need to work hard over this weekend in order to find out what that compromise path forward is. these sources were pressed several times on what are you looking at? we were told they were making no judgments and assumptions they all agreed and made a point to emphasize this to show they were confident that they would reach a deal to beat this deadline. everyone involved, the leadership on the house and the leddership in the senate all agreed they need to come to an agreement that this is serious and they are confident they will find a compromise. >> the approximately will walk

tripled immediately with nor generals, colonels, ect., security, former diplomats, had he put 200 million, and i was opposing that war, and i was very close to the dynamics. i was convinced that he unleashing all of these people on capitol hill in the media, would overcome the media complicity like the new "new york times" and the democratic party passivity in congress and torn apart the lies and deceptions that bush-cheney used to invade -- weapons of mass destruction, cooperation with al-qaeda, saddam, threat to the united states with drone-like technology, ect., ect -- all know we've shown to be false. now, is this pie in the sky? why didn't george sorrows think of that? he makes $3-$4 billion his good year and $2-$2.5 billion in a bad year. he's extremely smart, knows what civic action does, has an open society institute. am i missing something? is the lack of imagination? is it a lack that if some of you called him he wouldn't have returned the call because it wasn't his idea? is it too much of a hypothetical? what do you think we could have avaded the disaster that is still in the makings for the people of iraq and our soldiers and our standing in

out in his group, in the next generation or so, first and second generation latinos will become a majority again and it shifts the dynamic after world war i when european ethnics were native born and assimilated. what accounts for the fact that even though objectively we're more degrated in my opinion there's more division and more ranker and more partisanship. my colleagues all have their own ideas about this. i'd like to throw out two factors which might otherwise not be discussed. external and internal. in 1961 there was an establishment that repressed the expression of a lot of -- the division that did exist. you did not have 900 channels with a john berk society channel, you know, and a black panther channel. the media were controlled by mostly northern elite, white males and certain things could be expressed. so william f. buckley jr. and george will expressed the right but you didn't have the equivalence of some of -- you did at the local level. there was the county guy with the radio show who is the demagogue. you had a homogenuity, for the most part the breakdown was welcomed. there is this kind of chaos now so

general's office. they know painfully well what it's like to argue on the other side. they are really good at asking the question you don't want asked. it's an interesting dynamic on the court right now. it makes oral argument tremendously thrilling and terrorfying for the advocate. one maybe perhaps slight corrective to what general meese said and it's odd for me to be defending the ninth circuit. i haven't been in that position for a long time but this year the ninth circuit numbers look roughly similar to the others in the other circuits. my numbers were a little different than general meese. i have 79% reversal rate for the ninth circuit compared to a 72% reversal rate overall for all circuits. but, you know, it's close -- it's close to the other circuits. what the difference, i think, is the number of cases, the absolute number from the ninth circuit. the ninth circuit was reversed 19 times this term which is more than triple the number of reversals from other circuit. the sixth circuit came in second with five reversals. but it's the number of cases that is quite remarkable. they took 26 cases over the last term compared to only 15 in the ninth circuit in
