i used to talk about olivia benson, i would say, i have learned so much from her. she is -- excuse me for reaching. she has -- it can still be polite. that is sort of her motto, fearlessness. it is not that she doesn't have to fear, it is that she does it anyway. it is not about her, she is a mama bear. a lioness. what has been so exciting about this process and about me needing to do something from my outrage, and if i could just say, sarah and tim, for me, i was a civilian. i learned about the rape kit backlog and was like -- what? i cannot believe it. everybody i have told that has responded the same way. we assume -- you just assume you get a rape kit done that it gets tested. when you learn about all the things and why they don't, it is a call to action. it pushes you into action. in terms of olivia, at first i wanted to do something. she influenced me. and now, with my stellar a-team behind me at joyful heart, they have helped increase the show. now, our show runner, warren, is such an incredibly great man and understands the value and the platform of the kno

i cannot thank diana and brad benson and others for their amazing work on the environmental team of the port and the environmental product that came forward. and i know that dianne herself sacrificed some exceptionally good personal time with her daughter's college graduation and so she made it to graduation but rushed back to work on the eir and we will be forever thankful for that. >> i would like to recognize elaine forbes and the team for making and printing money. and i would like to trafrng tom carter and the maintenance personnel for all of the work in and around the site and i would like to recognize the engineering team for their fantastic project management, their flexibility of the project kept evolving and as the budget kept getting cut. so without them i don't know that we would be here today and then lastly, i would really like to thank you commissioners, because this has been a long process for us. it is not a traditional process of finding the money, design it, get it and build it, we did everything new and different and you had a lot of confidence in us and you supporte

brad benson. >> thanks, brad. >> brad benson, special projects manager, the ifd policy that the port staff presented to the commission, went through the capitol planning committee in december and it was endorsed by the capitol planning committee with a recommendation to the board of supervisors and they have been coordinating with the mayor's office to get the board

brad benson. >> thanks, brad. >> brad benson, special projects manager, the ifd policy that the port staff presented to the commission, went through the capitol planning committee in december and it was endorsed by the capitol planning committee with a recommendation to the board of supervisors and they have been coordinating with the mayor's office to get the board of supervisors resolution endorsing that policy, introduced with some co-sponsors among the board, we are hoping that that will happen in the coming weeks. and that the board will be able to consider that ifd policy prior to the term sheet going up for board consideration. the project really does, or is and the project finances the entire negotiation is predicated on the ability of the project to capture 65 cents of every dollar of pretax that is generated, which is really the entire local share. and so, without that, financing tool, we are not going to be able to fund the infrastructure required for the project. so it really is a predicate of the project. >> and i understand that entirely but i am just saying that someti

wiggles, and his cat's name is benson. - where's liz?d to speak to her right away. - i guess that's the end of pete and kenneth time. - liz, she's here. verna's here. my mother is downstairs. - are you sure? - i didn't see her. security called. she was trying to use an oxycontin prescription bottle as i.d. - that's verna. - oh! - so is she coming up? - are you kidding? i told them to throw her off the property. but i'm sure she's down there, sitting on a curb, chain-smoking, and waiting for me to come out. just like the day i was born. - wow. look, jenna, i know that she's no prize, but no matter what, verna is your mother. don't you want to have a relationship with your mother? - this isn't a relationship. this is some woman who shows up every couple of years to ask for money. to her, i'm just a gorgeous, naturally-blonde atm. - you know, my mother and i sometimes didn't see eye to eye, but at the end of the day, we always said ♪ don't go to sleep ♪ with a frown in your pocket ♪ - ugh, liz, you don't know anything about mothers. where's

strong as well as [speaker not understood] coner, elliott chang and until his recent departure, brian benson. i am also introducing today, colleagues, ~ our five-year information and community technology -- i'm sorry, five-year information and communication technology plan. several years ago i passed legislation to require every other year that we update a five-year ict tech plan to provide a framework for how our city thinks about plans for and invests in technology. as i know you have heard me describe before, i think we need to be doing better about moving our technology out of 1999. we're making progress, but we have a long way to go. the plan identifies four strategic it goals, making government efficient and effective through technology, improving public access and transparency, strengthening security and disaster preparedness, and maintaining and supporting critical city infrastructure. the plan identifies significant information and communication technology needs which will need to be prioritized by [speaker not understood]. in fact, there is a $175 million gap over the next five yea

. >> reporter: the benson hurst section of brooklyn has been the first stop for generations of immigrants. well-trimmed yards where icons of faith are common. monsignor david cassato is pastor of st. athanasius church. >> in the early days of this parish it was german, then irish then the '60s it became very italian. it's been a parish of immigrants for years and years and years. >> reporter: many of those italian american families have since moved away. the single italian language mass plays to mostly empty pews in the basement. the main event these days is upstairs. the three spanish masses are packed with new immigrants from mexico and guatemala. >> we started the spanish mass about 15 years ago maybe with about 50, 60 people and it has grown now to be almost one thousand people. >> pelley: what would your church be like without the hispanic community? >> it would be a little quiet, i think. i think it would get a little too quiet. >> reporter: 20 years ago about one in five american catholics was hispanic. now it's more than one in three. 70% of new catholics are of hispanic heritage.

. >> we have mike pereira and ken benson who had front row seats at the that particular daytona raceoined also by arthur aidala. before i get to the legal end of this, guys. thanks for he abouting with us. you have brought a ticket with you and on o the back of the ticket there is a discussion that anybody who buys a ticket pretty much waives their right to sue. >> correct. >> and you guys have been to how many races? >> this is my third daytona. >> 7th. >> 7th? >> 7th. >> judge jeanine: daytona so you are nascar fans. >> oh, yeah. >> you go to these things all the time. if you could is sit in the front row would you sit in the front row? >> we do every time. >> judge jeanine: whitney talked about there is a space between where you sit and the fence. is that a danger zone. >> they don't let you walk there. you can't stop and look through the fence. if you stop the ushers or security move you away from the fence and say to keep moving. >> judge jeanine: are you fearful that you could get hurt? >> it is the risk of going to the race. that is the way we look at that time. >> judge jeani

michael: texas hasn't voted for a democratic president since carter in 1976, a democratic senator since bensonow long will it take? >> your point a good one. we -- democrats have lost the last 100-state-wide elections since 1994, 0 to 100. so we know this is a massive challenge, but we also know there is a ton of energy on the ground there volunteers donors supporters across the state who are ready to have their voices heard. so the context is going to depend on a couple of key factors, and some of that is how fast can we get the atmosphere at the local level to get a great statewide candidate to get out there and run and take the risk and step up that will accelerate the process a little bit. but it's a short-term thing and it's not going to happen tomorrow. it is going to take organizing on the ground to get it done block by block, precinct by precinct, county by county. but if we don't want today the process will be too long, so we have to speed up the process. >> michael: republicans are upping their game they say when it comes to data and digital, we hear reince priebus lay out that plan

tom udall in new mexico, mark warner of virginia, joe benson in west virginia has already dense prettyis state. bob casey in pennsylvania. then joe dahlia of indiana, martin heinrich of indiana, harry reid of nevada. they may not be up for reelection next year, but there have been vocal supporters of guns and gun rights. and there is, of course, politics. the politics and in the business. guns are booming. it was a banner year for gun sales. the firearms industry had a nearly $32 billion impact on our economy, up from nearly $20 billion in 2009. $32 billion. by the way, almost 20 million background checks last year. as the highest number of background checks ever recorded. it started publishing the statistics back in 1998. so just as colorado about the economic impact of restricting the second amendment. gun parts manufacturers bank poll polling data the state now that they have a newly signed law and the state getting ammunition magazines that hold more than 15 rounds . president obama in the land. syria, topic number one of the agenda. and the "a-team" next. the house in the senate w

town hall's guy benson says we're the ones who lose on that. well, i'm sure you could argue misplaced priorities. there are reasons for the budget being late but there's something about pushing these brackets and not moving on this. >> look, as a sports fan i speak on behalf of many. thursday, friday, perhaps the best days in the calendar year, including christmas and christmas eve. >> neil: that's weird, i'm telling you that's weird. >> on twitter they'll agree. people love thursday and friday, the first week and the president is a huge college basketball fan. >> neil: more than christmas? >> if you're a hardcore sports fan, maybe. >> so you agree with the president. >> absolutely. he kicks my butt every year in the bracket. i'm a long suffering northwestern fan so this is a tough time. >> neil: you'll give him his due. >> i do. it's a cool thing to do and generally very smart, soft politics. >> neil: i think you can do a lot. get the brackets, get the budget and i'll help the president by building the budget as if you were filling out a brack

now, his biographer, jackson benson, claims he was kind of cranky and not as good to his kids or a couple of his wives -- i do not know anything about that. to me, i guess my argument would be that of all the great celebrities and writers of his age he was a pretty normal guy. there are not any real horrible stories about him. >> let's look at some video at the sag harbor home. you took this video. do you remember when it was? wax it would have been the night before or the day of the 50th anniversary of his leaving. >> you are starting your trip then? >> once i see it i can tell you when. >> this is where steinbeck started his trip, september 20 3, 1960. this is his house on a private lane. sag harbor, very close to south hampton. he planted that tree right by his door. it was tiny then, now it is huge. out in the yard, there is his writing house where he wrote. this is the writer's shack he used to write his books in. he would come out here where he could not lie and basically no one could visit him. it looks like it is in pretty good shape. the sun is going down behind it, which makes f

a republican versus a democrat, lloyd benson versus phil graham.esent their era, sort of the last of the yellow dog democrats. the first of the blue dog democrats in phil gramm to turn republican. there it is, start your voting. it's going to be fun. and i have to say i don't expect all four of our number ones to make it to our final four. >> i love this idea. chuck, i just don't know what you mean about people taking to twitter to complain. i'm not familiar with that. anyway, thank you, chuck. >> reporter: it never happens. >> go to first read on nbcpolitics.com to get your senate madness on. vote for whether lloyd bentsen or phil gramm should be the 64th member of the tournament. the winner moves on to our other matchups that will begin next week. we'll unveil the brackets beginning on monday. >>> our gaggle is coming up next. why the sunshine state may be brightening hillary clinton's 2016 prospects. >>> never forget the white house soup of the day, chipotle boeef. it just makes me think of a chipotle burrito in beef broth. i met it's a little m

it reminded me of the old lloyd benson moment where he said, senator, you are no jack kennedy. the last person who needs to be lectured about the rigors of the constitution and what limits may or may not be about the second amendment. >> if there's anyone who knows a lit bit about the horrors of gun violence, goldie, as you say, it's dianne feinstein. she became mayor of san francisco in '78 because a gunman assassinated the sitting mayor and murdered gay rights pioneer harvey milk. we saw senator feinstein sticking up for herself. take a listen to her back on that day when she confronted gun violence firsthand. >> both mayor musconi and supervisor harvey milk have been shot and killed. >> goldie, i would only point out that the day those assassinations happened, november 28th, 1978, ted cruz was just 7 years old. so how come he's now lecturing senator feinstein about firearms? >> you know, to say that there are no limits on the second amendment is like saying there's no limit on the right of free speech. of course there's a limit on free speech. there's libel, slander. of cour

ashley benson and vanessa hudgens.diner to pay for a trip to florida where they hook up with a tweerk gangster played by james franco. will this movie be good or bad for the careers of these young starlets? >> we can't say what kind of effect this will have on their career, we can say they're excited about the project. >> reporter: she told "entertainment tonight" she has no regrets about taking on the roles. >> the decision we made, we stand by and love it. >> reporter: justin timberlake went there this to this -- ♪ when i give you >> reporter: britney spears from this -- ♪ you're the only one for me >> reporter: -- to this. christina aguilera was a teen star, too. before getting significantly more risque. the reviews for "spring breakers" have gone from transfixing to horrified. putrid. either way, it's outperforming at the box office. it was released on a limited number of screens, but it cracked the top ten list over the weekend, bring in more than $5 million. where the box office is king, ticket sales may be the f

and it is to talk about olivia benson, i would say, i have learned so much from her.- excuse me for reaching. she has -- it can still be polite. that is sort of her motto, fearlessness. it is not that she doesn't have to fear, it is that she does it anyway. it is not about her, she is a mama bear. a lioness. what has been so exciting about this process and about me needing to do something from my outrage, and if i could just say, sarah and tim, for me, i was a civilian. i learned about the rape kit backlog and was like -- what? i cannot believe it. everybody i have told that has responded the same way. we assume -- you just assume you get a rape kit done that it gets tested. when you learn about all the things and why they don't, it is a call to action. it pushes you into action. in terms of olivia, at first i wanted to do something. she influenced me. and now, with my stellar a-team behind me at joyful heart, they have helped increase the show. now, our show runner, warren, is such an incredibly great man and understands the value and the platform of the knowledge th

and guy benson political editor for townhall.com, he's at cpac, we're getting guests from there todayldn't go down without a fight. i'm no jeff neely, i didn't know about this. yes, i was one of the four regional chiefs forced to resign or fired, but i have nearly 40 years at gsa, i didn't know about the expenses, i didn't approve them and you can't put this on me. >> reporter: that's what he said and he won that fight nor now, as you mentioned i'm here at cpac, this is a story that's low hanging fruit and red meat for the folks here to sort of mix a metaphor. and you had this guy who was in a chief managerial role, a poster child for waste and excess is not only back on the job, but 11 months of back pay. as a conscientious taxpayer that's hard to swallow. >> megyn: but is it? what he's arguing is i realize that gsa employees and managers behaved very badly. well, jeff neely, he was not fired, he was allowed to retire. the bathtub man was allowed to retire with the bloody marys or whatever they turned out to be, and not fired, but prowdy had a different result and what he said was th

. >> benson is on the phone. >> first of all, i listen to tom harken. they took him off the radio. and we have to list them online. right now some apartments in washington d.c. addressedt you have are the issues back in the information. i think that's the reason why it has to dumb down. newson't have the organizations. i could remember as a wilchild watching walter cronkite. it's one thing else i would love to say. i -- the video about what's the senator's name? bob dole. were you back in 2007? i thought it was awesome. >> uh-huh. >> i'm liberal. >> in our video library.org. do you think now a days as opposed to 10 years ago, there are fewer. >> i think there are certainly more media outlets. like the color mentioned -- you know, that happens in some isolated cases which other reporters have talked about the pressure they feel from their "corporate overlord." but i do think -- it's hard but attend of the day any organization and our parents companies help us to make a profit. i think that if they do, climb it up here. -- if they do create this climate of fear if they do, they would

the tiger-ettes are mav is, nicki, mary benson, loretta hill, and kitty. ladies, good morning.s. you're the oldsest member of the team, right? >> yes. >> how old are you? >> 76. >> have you been playing basketball your whole life? did you take it up late in life? >> late in life. when i heard about the senior league. then my life changed. >> how old do you have to be to compete in the senior olympics? >> 50. >> 5, okay. nicki, you are the young gun on the team. how old are you? >> i'm 56, and i've been playing all my life. i had three older sisters, and i just followed in their footsteps. >> why is this team so successful? seven gold medals at the national senior olympics. what's the secret? >> we say celedrin. that keeps us going. >> you're all doing okay today? that's good to know. are you constantly on the lookout for your team for up and coming young players, and by that i mean a great 60-year-old? >> no. >> no? >> no, actually no, because we have to play by age. you know, you train with the youngest player, which i'm 66, then we don't want to play at that younger level. >>

and in our interview, she says that's a role to play, not who she is. 23-year-old ashley benson, a disneyls. do they have a point at that readers should distinguish between playing a role and who this actress is? >> no, kids don't have that ability to make the distinguish, the tweens reality versus fiction. they'll see this girl as getting a role by being this character and claims in her article that she's excited for everybody to see her film. and you know, i wouldn't want to be marketing an r-rated film to 12-year-old. and young audiences and these companies that market to young audiences, they have to understand that young girls are learning who they are, they're they're impressionable and doesn't make it okay. we're adults and know we can filter these things and young children don't, they copy and saying, don't do as we say-- or do as we say not as we do. and they're copycats and they learn from society and what examples are set before them and so, it's not -- it's important and one of my goals is to help advertisers and companies and organizations to have young audiences and girls as
