it is a real commitment. [applause] so we have spent a great deal of time really analyzing how we can build on that and analyzing how we can make appropriate investments, and i will talk about the arts budget, and i will give you a sense of what we are valuing in this budget and how we believe we can aspire to the framework of economic growth and revitalization. this multi agency effort has been advanced not just by city departments representatives but by community leaders. so many wonderful things have happened that we are starting to pull them together. one of them is the remarkable effort under way is through the better market street project, where there is a real commitment to a improving the realm, a focus on more reliable transit. to remove at least 150 cars. it turns out that was the number of cars every hour or so that has been redirected, particularly going eastbound into the market quarter -- corridor, and the numbers bear out that we are moving in the right direction. there has been a chance to enha

. >> i think they need continuity of players more than anything they need a real winning attitude that cast a matter to the owner pure that's what made the difference for steinberger he was wealthy if that he wanted to win personally i took it seriously. >> he is the owner up until now he hasn't been very visible to the public and not visible and to hurt terms of the day-to-day operations. with perhaps someone like larry ellison coming in the be an opportunity for ellison to be more like more cubans to give you an example and get involved in the day-to-day operations of the team mates. and >> new ownership may happen as soon as later today. >> taking a look at our extended forecast warmer weather expected even tomorrow through thursday that will see a cooling trend for the weekend. if of a complete forecast coming up a few minutes. muni did hit a high point in terms of service and recorded for a 75% on-time performance rate systemwide in the first three months of this year. that's munis best performance ever appeared for the transportation credits its changes that were made back in dec

we have a real problem. that is not good for business. for us, it is active transport, really important as a solution for being accessible. ok, does it work? yes. this is the city. at the red lines, these are the congestion. this is the pattern of workers who go to work in the morning and in the afternoon. most of the workers come from outside of the city of amsterdam. they come mostly by car, but also a big part from public transport. what was the conclusion of all the businesses? if we go on like this, we have a real big problem in one, two years, maybe a little bit longer, we will not have any mobility anymore in our own region. that was one of the reasons that businesses came together and they were thinking, what can we do, not for a long time because it takes time, but what can we do today that helps today? that is important for the accessibility, and accessibility is very important for good, competition against the other regions in europe. of course, it is very important for the quality of life. if we want to attract international bu

they have been a lot of reports that put it together in one place. i think the real challenge that has been touched on is really leadership, and a lot of it has to do with leadership and people really stepping up in leadership positions, and unfortunately, the politics of the equation are still really complicated. that is what a lot of people are saying. it is so easy to drop a bill and create havoc on thousands of workers, and that is what happens for political reasons. i honestly do not think that -- remember when a trucker -- when the truck below up on the other side of the bay bridge? there were and million accusations that that trucker had a criminal record and that is why, basically, the truck blew up and we had all these problems, so there were bills dropped in statements made by leading politicians from boxer on down. it turned out his record was very minor and had nothing to do with the driver or anything else. the guy was fine, and he has been working hard to put his life back together. we want to reward that kind of thing. i think it takes a lot of real le

we have been through a lot of ups and downs, and on behalf of the real estate department, you left a legacy there also. i've never come across a dead deal that jennifer worked on. she carried her professionalism and her grace from department to department. i just want to say that i will personally miss you, and i'm sure that everybody in the real estate department will miss you, and we wish you the best. i hope that you will continue to watch our efforts and our accomplishments as we try to implement all the work you have done. thank you.

the city new york city has a 3% combined real estate transfer tax. the city of philadelphia has a 4% real estate transfer tax for commercial property. so we would have a measure that would be less than those places. i do believe this is a measure that is necessary, especially given the uncertainty of revenue and the need for multiple solutions to our budget deficit, including restructuring our government, including the labor concessions that have already been made in labor, but we also have to be looking at revenue. and this one, i believe, could be viable. i'd like to ask that we could move this forward with your support, colleagues. this would also not affect people who are single-family homeowners. the increase would -- their real estate transfer tax would remain the same. so it's really looking at commercial property property on that end. we have a report from mr. ted eagan, from the controller's office, office of economic impact. he can share with us the record. mr. eagan, thank you for your work. >> thank you, supervisor. good afternoon, supervi

so i think there's a very real concern in the country about obama as president of the united states and it's not just his policies. i think there's a sense that he has not been the kind of leader everyone has been expected and the unifying of the country. he's been a devicive figure. his public support is dropping dramatically. >> let's get back into drama and that's obviously politics. head to head polls against obama. head to head polls, you've you'o >> obama >> versus versus mitt romney, versus mike huck by, romney, obama defeated. obama against newt, against new defeated. obama against sarah palin, your favorite, eleanor. dead heat. >> you know, it's a long way to 2012. the democrats who are going to take this brunt this november are the house democrats and the president came into office. the improbability of him winning the election, i think, got people thinking he could transform all of the problems. there is a bloomberg poll that shows people blame president bush far more than they do president obama for all of the existing problems. they are impatient and this president has had

i am not a real big moviegoer, actually. i love making them. i love working on them, but i am a news junkie and a sports guy. i enjoy seeing you on cnn. tavis: because "wall street" is such a classic now, what was your barometer on whether the script was right to bring this back? >> first of all, oliver was not interested initially about doing a sequel. we did a few tracks. -- we get a few drafts, then we got a good handle on it. oliver agreed to come on in, and i felt good. it was like bookends. i knew he was angry and hungry. he had been whacked a couple of times the last couple of years. everybody is wonderful in the picture. this young guy, shia labouef, he is 22 years old, and he is wonderful. tavis: the girls like him. >> he was an animal. he knew what he had, and he delivered. there are 22, 23 years old. tavis: since you mentioned that you are a news junkie, what do you make of the state of our union? >> it is debilitating. i am so proud of the president that we have, the leadership, and i think he does have a link andesque quality -- a l

those below that number often take, their parties take a real beating in midterm elections and that's where we are now. gwen: isn't it true we saw some rather unseemly, that's a nice way of putting it, back and forth? robert gibbs says this -->> i think there's no doubt there are enough seats in play that could cause republicans to gain control. gwen: coming from a pundit, this comment is conventional wisdom, but coming from the president's spokesman, it seemed to some democrats like betrayal. it must have made people develop unhappy on capitol hill, democrats. >> it did. and it's the words of a white house spokesman. others around him have said this. david plouffe said this recently in an interview i did with him and tp got very little attention. nobody really cared. but when a white house press secretary says it, it rattles through washington. house democrats were outraged. they know they're in a tough fight. it wasn't a surprise for them. and he didn't finish the thought, which is they could take it over, but in the end they're not going to, we have ways to prevent that. and there

a real surprise. i think somebody is trying to politicize this probably more than it really it is you do say there's a huge number of documents there how do you think this leaked information will impact on military action in afghanistan. well one has to realize that with one thousand and one thousand documents it can become piles by iran years reports and accurate reporting one person's hearsays another person's statements another person's assumptions so they can all become documents nobody can jump into conclusions said they were all the i cure it facts are accurate reports but documents so one how one should recognize that but of course there's some of the sensitive issues if we don't know about it. if it's an operational nature it could. affect some of the operation on the ground military operation our intelligence operation we don't know those details by the if that if it pertains
