>> well, i think, first of all, it's key what anne marie was saying. we're moving to a worse situation as we speak. unless there's some sort of a miracle that occurs tonight or tomorrow, we're going to see this violence spread. we're going to see it spread more into lebanon. there was a killing there today in lebanon. there's been killings in turkey. a shooting across the border. once this thing starts to spread beyond syria's borders, i think it's fairly inevitable we're going to have to use air assets to destroy his armor and take his air assets out of the air. >> anne marie, you agree with that? >> i do. we're in agreement tonight. but i think there was a shooting across the border into turkey today. the syrian army was chasing free syrian army rebels and shot into turkey, killed a turkish policeman. this is going to spread into turkey, into lebanon, possibly into jordan. and i don't think we're going to have a choice. i think there's going to have to be a military move. i still think in conjunction with safe zones that will effectively stop this no

a huge role in getting the ball rolling on this important part of our planning code as well as anne- marie rogers and scott sanchez to have done a lot of work on this. it has truly been a team effort. we have distributed amendments which are primarily cleanup and typographical errors and ensuring consistency within the legislation. in addition, one amendment i would like to point out that will not require continuance, but i want to knonote it, in the the upper market and castro neighborhood commercial district, a conditional use authorization would be required for alcohol and intensification, going from a beer and wine permit too hard liquor. that is already the case in a number of other neighborhoods and it was inadvertently left out for the castro and upper market areas. i do moved those amendments and with that said, i respectfully ask for your support. president chiu: supervisor wiener has made the amendments. is there a second? can we take the amendments without objection? supervisor chu: i simply want to acknowledge the great work supervisor wiener has done shepherding this to the le

let's ask ann marie, the former communication doctor.ox news contributor, howard dean's 2004 campaign manager. >> all right, joe, you know, we had to throw that howard in there. truthfully. we've had them where we say something because we're tired and have the moments and sometimes the person gets elected and have a major gaff and this one i want to have you take a look at it and have you respond. (inaudible) k at it and then we'll respond. >> joe, let me start with you. >> all right. joe, let me start with you, this is a pretty major moment the president, i think is really damaged by this gaffe, it's not just a campaign goof on the trail. this is a policy issue, and let he's essentially saying i'm going to keep something from the american people and by the way, i am he' absolutely going to get reelected. a problem for him in november. >> it's going to be a problem because romney or whoever the republican nominee is going to be, we're going to see this tape over and over again. and i think the reality is, he's telling the truth. what, wh

. >> my name is anne marie. i represent in north of market community benefit district, the tenderloin. we are very excited to have your company coming in. just talking about the burning man twist, that is an interesting phrase. this may be premature. any ideas in place to affect our immediate neighbors? especially the children in the tenderloin. there are more children per capita than anywhere else in san francisco. i see it as a fantastic opportunity to collaborate. >> the we moved in and everyone is talking about going up, but when we came in, we did a press conference. we said, we are immigrants here. we want to learn, we want to meet the people that live here. and we are getting to know people better. i will give you an example of something that could be done. i had an idea, based on an installation that i saw in europe. i am struck by the fact that there are more children in the tenderloin than anywhere in san francisco. people are amazed by this. it is a wonderful opportunity down here. by law, it will be

that's where we join nbc bay area's mary ann favreau with more on this search effort. mary ann? >> reporter: more than a dozen deputies were out here today in the area, including here off murphy road. they combed the creek bed here. and the search effort is also getting a boost from a high-tech tool. sierra disappeared more than three weeks ago, she was last seen in her bedroom the morning of march 16th. the search for potential evidence in the case, led deputies to search san martine and gilroy. >> today we have three canines out with our search and rescue teams, specialized trained canines and again not that we got a tip or that there's anything additional or groundbreaking in the case, we have had these human detection dogs before, with search and rescue, as a precaution, in case they come across any crime scenes. >> reporter: this low speed scouring of fields and creeks is in sharp contrast with this high speed tool, also being used to help find sierra. >> it captures the qr code. >> reporter: child quest international has created a qr code on posters of the missing girl. an

. >> ann marie rogers, planning department. >> there are now many of us, but i am one of them. this is the map that the committee considered last time, showing the c three district in red. the colors are not really good, but they are with their color currently applies. there are other areas in the southern parts of the southeast and southwest of the city that have been proposed for inclusion. what you are considering today is all of the map except for those two areas. let me show you what that is like. this revised amount has removed the rh and rc districts in the tenderloin of that area, as well as was mentioned by supervisor chiu in the east and southwest parts of the city. it remains within the south market zoning districts on north 13th streets and scattered throughout the eastern neighborhoods. supervisor chiu: obviously, supervisor kim's office has been made abreast of these changes and is supportive of the ones we have made today. in a standard is amenable to u.s. well. >> i also notice that we have the mayor's office here. would you like to come with a couple of words?

take us inside of the room and the discussion that is held and ann marie. what is the discussion and answer it or leave it alone and extend. >> calm. it is important to have a cool head and think through the implications andine then your response will be amiss. you hope it is it a hit. and you have a team that coalesces and get it out. and a lot of times you don't know how it is received and you have to go with your instinct. >> you worked for tim and it was at fox news sunday . and did that hurt him. and was that a discussion inside. pawulenty campaign. that was not something was insurmountable . it was in june 2011 and 12. and you want to do what is best for your candidate and remain loyal to him or her and put your best step forward and move on to the next thing and change the story. i want to thank both of you and it is it a perspective that very few people had and maybe we can bring you back. it is it a fascinating thing and having been the guy who made the gap and someone on your staff looks at you and said you really, really goofed tup then. and that

the public is safe and these animals are cared for. >> are you having direct conversations with mary annon't end the way it appears to be? or no? >> well, we've reached out to mary ann thompson. we continue to be a resource and to help educate not only her but anyone else that would have restricted species to make sure that they have the proper standards and care. and that the proper habitat for them to ensure they have an enriching life. not only that they are giving them proper care, but there's a purpose for them. the bottom line is, these restricted species do not make good pets. and we have been spreading that message. we'll continue to spread that message. that you do not want to own a tiger or a lion. i want to make sure that you understand, though, that there are private facilities that are outstanding. we're talking about what we were witnessing at the thompson farm, places where there were holes in the cages. no perimeter fence. not proper care, feces and mud and no shelter for the animals. that has to stop. >> tom, thank you very much. i appreciate your taking the time. >>> th

mary anne fabro is on morgan hill. mary anne? >> it was four days ago that she first saw her in her morgan hill home. dogs were sent here to see if they could detect her scent. now one month later, there are more questions than answers. divers went into the chilly waters today, hoping to find evidence that would lead them to sierra lamar. they pin pointed eight areas to investigate. >> we looked at thousands of images, and anything that we found on the floor of the reservoir here were -- that shouldn't be there, we're going to take a look at to determine whether or not it may be associated with the case. >> diving as deep as 40 feet, deputies rely solely on touch to investigate objects. 15-year-old sierra lamar was last seen four weeks ago today when her mom said goodbye to sierra in her bedroom before heading off to work. neighbor sydney flores says he can't believe sierra has been gone a month. >> you keep thinking, you know, she would be home by now, and then, you know, reality sinks in and it's not going to be that easy. i gu

as i say those words i am reminded of anne-marie slaughter's addition to the concept of soft power. she has added interconnectedness as a new kind of power. i do think it is important with iraq. [applause] >> thank you very much. i want to thank all three of our speakers for very insightful and provocative presentations. one of was working on the nsc staff i got used to these black-and-white visions of what was actually happening in iraq and where we are going and i am glad to see in some ways not much has changed. that provide some comfort. i was very interested in the speaker's remarks on how we are engaging with the iraqi government and ambassador feltman spoke eloquently on the extent to which the u.s. government maintains high-level ties on key issues that are facing many iraqis. at the same time i am very interested in daniel serwer's comment on the levers of our influence which i will throw to the speakers. are we using all of the levers of our influence in iraq. we try to leverage our relationships with key iraqi players. we doing the same thing with provincial players? are

mary ann morrissey gets three years probation for the attempt. >> i think mary just happened to be thererong person. >>> coming up, prisoners on the run in the streets of denmark. >> we didn't expect anything to happen like this. >> when "caught on camera: inmates and outlaws" continues. [ artis brown ] america is facing some tough challenges right now. two of the most important are energy security and economic growth. north america actually has one of the largest oil reserves in the world. a large part of that is oil sands. this resource has the ability to create hundreds of thousands of jobs. at our kearl project in canada, we'll be able to produce these oil sands with the same emissions as many other oils and that's a huge breakthrough. that's good for our country's energy security and our economy. the calcium they take because they don't take it with food. switch to citracal maximum plus d. it's the only calcium supplement that can be taken with or without food. that's why my doctor recommends citracal maximum. it's all about absorption. i would not say i'm into it, but let's see whe

as i say those words, i'm reminded of ann marie slaughter's addition to joe's concept of soft power. she's added interconnectedness as a new kind of power, and i do think it's very important, it's particularly important with iraq. thank you. >> thank you very much, dan. i want to thank all three of our speakers for very insightful and provocative presentations. when i was working, i became very used to these kind of black and white visions of what was actually happening in iraq and where we were going. i'm glad to see that, in some ways, not much has changed. that provides some comfort. i was very interested in the speaker's remarks in how we are engaging with the government. the extent to which the u.s. government maintains high-level ties on key issues facing many iraqis, at the same time, i'm very interested in dan's comments on the levers of our include. are we using all of the levers of our influence in iraq right now? we're clearly trying to leverage our relationships with key iraqi players. are we doing the same thing in our relationships with the provincial players? are we tr

how do you overcome that, mary anne? >> well, there are a couple of factors. no question president obama has had a tough few weeks when you look at some of the economic news. gas prices, and romney closed out the republican nomination for all intensive purposes so he gets a little bounce out of that. i'd still rather be barack obama than mitt romney for the following reasons. number one, more people still like and trust barack obama more than mitt romney. do not underestimate the value of that number especially in a close election. number two -- >> don't you think that number will change as governor romney gets more exposure because he's fairly new to the american people. don't you think that would change? could go either way. it depends on romney's performance but certainly as more people see him, particularly interacting with the president during the debates, they don't know if he's going to change, president obama can't rely on that number staying where it is. >> well, as you said in the talking points, romney has to bring his a game. we have yet to see tha

. >> ann marie cox used to talk dirty. where do you stand on candidates cursing out reporters?ink it's completely sort of within the bounds of what they have a right to do, obviously, and i think there's something about rick santorum's temperament and temper that makes this totally within keeping of his personality. it's also true that rick santorum doesn't make gaffs in the sense that mitt romney does where he says things that are at odds with what he said before. what rick santorum did there was totally in context with everything he has ever said about the media, about himself, about his views, and probably something that his supporters found very sympathetic, or could relate to at the very least. >> but coming back to the reporter -- go ahead. >> right. what's unfortunate about that is that i think you know, jeff, he is a fellow nebraskan. he is one of the most mild-mannered people out there. he is probably not the first person i would think of as cursing out. you know? he had a perfectly legitimate question. >> and that's the point i was going to raise, michael, which was t

. >>> we're back with ann marie slaughter, brett stevens, ed, and emanual st. martin.e correspondent in india. india just announced a big nuclear missile test, and they made absolutely clear that it was a missile that could reach china, it could reach shanghai and beijing, and its purpose was deterrence. do you think we're witnessing the beginnings of a kind of asian arms race? >> i think we're already in the asian arms race. i mean, india could have chosen to conduct this missile test at any stage in the last two, three years. the timing of this is quite interesting, though, given the fact that, you know, china does have a more assertive role in the last two years, but china is also in a transition phase, and i think you have a weak government in india, and this is one way of showing that it's still got strength and can flex its missiles, and, of course, the agony is the god of fire. it can reach shanghai. for the first time india is in a parody. therefore, in nuclear terms with china. i suspect we're going to be seeing a lot more of this. i do suspect this has always

how do you overcome that, mary anne? >> well, there are a couple of factors. no question president obama has had a tough few weeks when you look at some of the economic news. gas prices, and romney closed out the republican nomination for all intensive purposes so he gets a little bounce out of that. i'd still rather be barack obama than mitt romney for the following reasons. number one, more people still like and trust barack obama more than mitt romney. do not underestimate the value of that number especially in a close election. number two -- >> don't you think that number will change as governor romney gets more exposure because he's fairly new to the american people. don't you think that would change? could go either way. it depends on romney's performance but certainly as more people see him, particularly interacting with the president during the debates, they don't know if he's going to change, president obama can't rely on that number staying where it is. >> well, as you said in the talking points, romney has to bring his a game. we have yet to see tha

mary ann was put on a machine to help her breathe at night. she also lost 130 pounds.eed the machine anymore. dr. lu says if you think you are not sleeping well, see a doctor. >> for day-to-day functioning, poor sleep, sleepyness can cause impaired concentration, difficulty at work, difficulty driving. one of the thnk main things we know about untreated sleep apnea is it can increase your risk of having a car accident. >> if you find yourself getting sleepy during the day, you might ask your family to listen and find a sleep doctor, like dr. lu, and you will be on your road to better sleep. >> good morning. thank you for coming in. talking a little about this machine, can you explain what the machine actually is? >> sure. the cpap machine, "cpac" stands for continuous positive airway pressure. it blows from a hose to a mask you wear on your face. that pressure keeps the throat open. >> a lot of people refuse to wear it because it looks weird, it is intimidating, it makes a lot of noys noise. >> the common things i hear is it feels claustfobic. on the other hand for peo

. >> mary ann driscoll those all too well what it is like not to get enough sleep. she says a lack of sleep was taking its toll on her day to day life. >> by the end of the day, you feel like a dish rag, and there's not much left of you for family. >> mary ann went for a sleep study. >> you will come into a center and in the night. and we do a lot of monitoring, including oxygen levels, it is a cagey, breathing, and brain waves to look at sleep. >> it will tell doctors how much you are sleeping and even if you stop breathing. maryann's study revealed she had moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea. she was put on a machine to help work 3 that night. she also lost 130 pounds. now she does not need the machine anymore. the doctor says it is best to see a doctor and get evaluated. >> for day-to-day functioning, quarks sleep can cause coppin difficulty it work, impaired concentration, difficulty driving. sleep apnea can increase your risk for having a car accident. >> if you find yourself getting sleepy during the day, you might ask your family to listen and then fin

mary ann just noticed this. look at that. if you just woke up, a four- month sleep.4. look at the snow, it is removed for valentine's day. >> february 14 looked better than that. >> yes. >> this morning's "coffee with," tracy hudson and tanya mcqueen, a satellite interview furnished by gladlock bags. what is going on? >> good morning. >> welcome to the morning edition. >> we're jacked up on caffeine. how about yourself? >> so are we? oh, my god. >> we just did an interview with andrea zimmerman from the bizarrest foods. and andrew had a bunch of coffee beans and who would ever thought an unedible, unchewable bean could be roasted and ground up and pour water over it and we savor this. >> it is crazy stuff. you could eat me like in nards. >> this is more usual stuff. this is more standard today. and the segment was called munches. >> and anyway, let's talk some things before we lose the caffeine buzz. let's talk about the clear liquid in front of you. that is that moon shine? >> maybe, to get us through the hour. >> and we did have a little moon shine in the early day

ann pgh marie, what is the discussion, let's go answer it and leave it alone, don't extend this thing. >> it is important to be calm and react and have a cool head and be able to really think through what the implications are. even then sometimes your response will be remiss. you hope it will be a hit but you have a team that coalesces together, the top advisors, and you come up with your response and get it out a lot of times you don't know how it will receive but you have to go with your instinct and lead with what you believe is right. >> you work for tim pawlenty and there was a moment in the debates he would not sort of own up to a comment he made before on fox news sunday about oh bomb bomb -- obamni care. >> among senior staff we had a discussion on how to handle that. at the end of the day our thought was this happened in june, 2011, six months before voters even went to the polls. it was something that was not insurmountable and we were happier then it happened in june, 2011 than june, twelve. i think that you want to do what's best for your candidate and remain loyal to him
