, there could be a little asterisk there or you could change the mother to minus one million.r way it's a tip graphical issue. it's not going to hurt gingrich, unless he was out there ten weeks ago touting his fiscal bona fide. >> i am debt-free. if the u.s. government was as debt-free as i am, everybody in america would be celebrating. [laughter] >> jon: actually, per capita, we owe $45,000 per person, so the u.s. government is, in fact, in a lot less debt than you are. [laughter] santorum is a wounded wildebeast, and gingrich is apparently a spawning salmon. all right. now we're getting there. let's see where governor tim pawlenty is at. he's got there 4.4 million raised. >> former governor tim pawlenty kicked off three weeks of iowa bodily harm storming in advance of the straw poll next month with an r.v. storm and a warning that iowans should not raise their support on charismatic candidates who can't actually win. >> jon: oh, tim pawlenty taking a bold stand against kris matt. [laughter] it's got no place in politics. hey, look, this is not a popularity contest. oh, it is

different way, the part that says existing controls attached to restaurant uses, indicated by an asterisk, in the planning code would remain for the most part. >> before the most part -- some neighborhoods will or will not want those controls. the mission merchants do not want the prohibition on fast food restaurants. with this legislation, there would be no fast food restaurant definition. things like that we would not continue to include, because they are irrelevant now. commissioner dooley: so if the neighborhood had controls they wanted to continue that would be allowed by right? >> we would certainly try to find a way to adapt the new definition to those controls. for the most part, do we have set up the definitions, everything folded neatly into it. commissioner clyde: first, i would like to just echo my fellow commissioners, commissioner adams, and thank you for bringing this forward. i know it represents a great amount of work and i think it is appropriate cleanup that will streamline, which is one of our charges as a commission, doing business in san francisco and make it more co

they have asterisks next to them. the first one on the list is the department of the environment emergency ride home program. this provides a free or low-cost ride home for employees to use alternative modes to get to work. this project will match $18,000 in prop k project funds from the fiscal years 11-12, 12-13. the electric vehicles charging station project. this would install two charging stations in san francisco. one would be in a parking crunch and the other would be at the san francisco international airport. this complements sfmta's recent batteries swap pilot project. i am going to skip over the third project listed, the san francisco integrated tdm project. next is the regional bike sharing project. this will deploy 1000 bikes at up to 100 stations along the peninsula corridor. half of those bicycles will be located in san francisco. the funds here are used, sfmta match, to the bay area climate change program. next is the department of the environment employer benefit out rich program. this will continue to

is that part of the welcoming committee asterisk. >> that's right.ight as you come up the driveway. >> you have been helping women for so many years, i mean, it's just -- the death of the work is not something i think that we can know without being part of it. it's not easily done. it's not easy for people to take advantage of the work. often people who are addicted or in trouble or they are not seeing things clearly, so what can we do in the community to help programs like yours? outside of donating. what can we do to help in the mental health and the recovery. of peoples lives? >> well, i think if opportunities come your way to become involved as you can so people don't have a lot of time, but there may be some volunteer work you could do. certainly, like you say if there is some donations you could have, give of your time. really have a positive attitude. there is hope out there for people who really want recovery. >> do you hear from people who graduated? when are women considered graduated? >> well, we really don't look at women as graduates. we

she is an asterisk if there disarmament educator but. let's just keep going this give a warm welcome for kathleen. ok the effectiveness of a social movement is sometimes very surprising and hard to track but it also depends on the creativity of the of the social movements themselves and the activists involved with ideas and images and stories and that's why we sailed boats in the nuclear tests and they've kind of surmised that all the weapons used in the second world war are equivalent to say three megatons that includes two nuclear weapons used i hear he all the bombs in the bullets. that represents all of the firepower of the second world war ok so now i'm going to give you another sound and this second sound is the equivalent firepower of the world's nuclear arsenal today. the only way forward that would make sense and would stop this madness rush for seeking the capability to make nuclear weapons is for those countries that have nuclear weapons to find a way to give them up and to rely for security non-nuclear means. well when i say

i would correct all of this in the record books, put asterisks on all the records and keep them out of the whole thing. >> last word. thank you. see you next week. >> for a transcript of this broadcast, log onto insidewashington.tv.

i would correct all of this in the record books, put asterisks on all the records and keep them out of the whole thing. >> last word. thank you. see you next week. >> for a transcript of this broadcast, log onto insidewashington.tv. hi, i'm alex guiriba outreach program services coordinator at college of san mateo. and csm alum. csm gave me the opportunity to transfer and graduate from the world's top public institution. and also, it gave me the opportunity to work in public service, which is a dream i've always had. i'm concerned about the current budget situation in california, and how current and future students may not have the same privileges and opportunities i had. to find out how you can help support csm, please go to the web address below. thanks for your support.

so from the credit rating point of view, your score falls, but with an asterisk, because you're payingmakes you still a good candidate for all the credit products that the banks are trying to sell you, jim. >> well, not necessarily. you still -- strategic default means you intended to do it. you could have paid that bill. you're going to be treated a lot less favorably by the credit scores than you would if, in fact, you defaulted because you literally had hard times, you know, you lost your job. the other thing i think it's important to recognize is that depending on whose numbers you're using, the number of households that are upside down range between 23% to 28%. that's a huge number. so further drops in house prices, you know, the conversation we were having earlier, if that happens, the potential for more strategic defaults is -- could, in fact, grow. >> okay, guys, stick with me for a minute. there's so much more to talk about. jim, margaret, david, stay with me. what will it take to fix the housing market? real answers, next. then have salad and biscuits followed by 1 of 7 delic

>> reporter: scott, yes with an asterisk. smoking's horrible. it lowers your lifespan by ten years and if you stop by age 50 you can regain six of those years. so even if it turns out chantix increases heart risk a bit-- and i can't wait for the f.d.a. to complete their study-- it still might be worth the risk because the possible risk of having all of the side effects of smoking are... might be outweighed by taking a medication. now, that said, in my practice, i might decide to start with the other medications first, but if they fail, then say "here are the risks and benefits of chantix, let's give it a try." >> pelley: does chantix work better than other medications? >> scott, it does. work a little bit better. say about 21% to 23% a year. that's a little better than other things like bupropion and even biofeedback, other things like that, so it's tempting to try champ ticks first but until we know better whether this risk is real for me in my own practice i'm going to put it aside, try the other ones first, but i won't hesitate to use it if o

. >> i was extremely fortunate being an asterisk -- astrophysicist that my first mission was to go up in the space shuttle with telescopes. >> they recall the program's many successes. >> my favorites the hubble space telescope the most amazing scientific instrument created by people. >> as well as the sometimes troubled history. >> we have lost 14 astronauts. >> for that reason, he looks forward to the shuttle launch. >> it is the first chance i will ever be able to -- first time to watch a launch with my wife next to me. >> and a safe return. it will be able to look forward to whatever comes next. >> we want to go to places again. we need a different vehicle to do that. it is time to expand capabilities and move on. >> they plan to continue sharing their passion with the next generation. >> kids and adults go outside and looked up at the stars and wonder what is out there. we want to go. >> both those gentlemen told us they are excited about being here to witness the final chapter of the shuttle program. they also say they hope the next generation of space vehicles are safer and a l

tout of an atmosphere of openness and acceptable there is ans a the e risk that goes with it -- asterisk that goes with that. mahmoud ahmadinejad welcomed with open arms. but look another what happened at this visit of irvine last year. >> i had the prime minister of israel. [ applause ] >> now that you have made your point, stand up and leave. >> glenn: he had to be escorted out of the room. so he took 20-minute break. he was interrupted ten times and it ended up in the arrest of 11 students. this isn't an isolated incident. views that are considered to be unpopular or conservative have come under attack by liberals on campuses all across the country. iowa state university, conservative coming out week event. sponsored by the college republicans. the group got an e-mail response from the university professor saying "f" you, republicans. she apologized it but said that the announcement was disturbing and offensive. really? truman state university in missouri. popular leftist married to a school professor, destroyed a display advertising a republican sponsored event. he tore down the grou

that sounds like good news but it comes with a big fat asterisk. realty track says many are being delayed. many foreclosures that should happen this year will happen next year instead. nevada, arizona and cal lead the pack in foreclosures. >>> the city of mumbai is on high alert right now after three separate explosions. they happened in a bustling part of the city during rush hour. 18 were killed, more than 100 hurt. authorities haven't figured out who's responsible yet and no terror group has claimed responsibility. >> every day, every hour but there was an attack in mumbai. >> this is the first big attack on mumbai since the terrorist siege nearly three years ago. new delhi and calcutta are also on alert this morning. >>> gadhafi's forces are strong in the western part of the country. cnn's ben wedeman and his crew got caught in the cross fire, literally. they're okay but think about this if you think you're having a bad day. >> reporter: this is how our day started. ambushed by gadhafi loyalists. >> there's a lot of gunfire. it's continuing to

even if that is true, here's your little asterisk, your little footnote. one very important part of the government, even if there is a deal miraculously, one very important part of the government will still be on the brink. it's the agency that regulates air travel in this country, and it has just one day left to live. i really mean it. one day. tomorrow night, unless congress reauthorizes the federal aviation administration, the faa will start turning off the lights. the transportation secretary saying that 4,000 faa workers will are furloughed. $600 million worth of construction projects will freeze tomorrow night. the secretary says a shutdown could cost the government $200 million a week in lost tax revenue that the faa would no longer be authorized to collect through things like airline tickets. since september 2007, when the last authorization for the faa expired, since then, congress has passed 20 short-term raises. 20. but this time, republicans in the house are insisting that they be allowed to strip existing union rights from people who work in t

if you happen to look at some that have an asterisk, that's where we have the record breaking. 105, recordreaking in washington, d.c. 102 up in atlantic city. we make our way a bit farther to the north. in newark, we had 108. 103 in hartford, mercy. 101 in providence. the humidity was very impressive yesterday. we can expect a few changes in the forecast as we make our way through the next couple of days. big changes in the atmosphere. hopefully, that will be due to the big area of high pressure that we've been calling a heat dome. it's expected to slide a little bit farther stoto the south and when that happens, it will create a void and what will move is an area of low pressure and that will bring cooler temperatures for places like new york and eventually washington, d.c. where instead of triple digit heat, you'll see the temperatures cool down into the 90s and overnight lows into the 70s for washington, d.c. one more thing as we wrap things up. as we see these air masses, these contrasting air masses move, the result has been some scattered showers and some strong thunderstorms. if you

but raise it with a whole bunch of asterisks. as you'll recall, this was a vote that was supposed to happen last night, but just minutes before it was set to come to the floor, john boehner found himself with an all-out mutiny in his own party, so today as we sit just four days away from cataclysmic default, today was a day spent by representatives in washington, not negotiating to see if a deal could be reached to avert catastrophe, but rather watching and waiting to see if john boehner would be able to keep his job as house speaker or whether it would all fall apart. today was a day of pure, ultimately pointless, political theater. now, mr. boehner was, in the end, able to pass a bill out of his own chamber tonight after 24 hours of arm twisting, but as americans across the country called for a balanced approach to the deficit problem, house republicans passed a bill that calls for more than $2 trillion in spending cuts exclusively. corporations, y'all go ahead and keep all those tax breaks. as the world markets call for a reso

but maybe there was an asterisk next to brenda's testimony.dmitted on the stand that she had cut a deal with the state. her testimony in exchange for leniency on charges of hindering apprehension and obstructing just cities. still she insisted on the stand and to "dateline" later that she was telling the truth. >> it's a horrible thing to have to testify against your brother, but i really didn't have a choice. i wanted to do what i thought was the right thing to do. >> with his alibi crushed by his own sister, the brick-by-brick masonry of a circumstantial case was walling in edward ates. the prosecution had portrayed a vengeful man, carefully plotting the murders of his former son-in-law, talking of his comings and goings and lying in wait that wednesday night. speculation had he baited the the scene knowing that duncsak would be agitated by finding a carelessly tossed hamburger wrapper and air conditioner blasting away. was he led to the kill zone? perhaps. but it's clear, argued the prosecution that etas then got in his car and drove 21.5 h

exciting to be here my book is called the forgotten founding father and it really should have an asterisk, because in hartford and west hartford, noah webster is not forgotten and he's not a forgotten founding father. and the point of this book is to tell the rest of the country about just how much noah webster has achieved, particularly in my state, massachusetts. i do a lot of my research at boston matinee and the first thing you see is a big portrait of daniel webster. and that's part of the problem. a lot of americans think that daniel wrote the dictionary, particularly in massachusetts. so i want to tell you about webster's incredible shrinking reputation after his death in 1843. when he dies, he is considered a national treasure. one story says he is out there in america's trinity of fame along with columbus in washington. in 1850s, none other than jefferson davis who was then a senator from mississippi says the following, we have a duty of language which no other people possess and we owe this unity above all the noah webster's yankee selling book. now today, noah webster if he's n

but there should be a little asterisk to that because he's actually $1 million in debt. >> already?> don't forget, this comes after the implosion of his top staff, lots of his fundraisers have left. so i think he's going to have a tough hull -- >> compare these numbers to president obama. because -- >> well -- >> it's not even a fair comparison. >> we happen to have a graphic on that, and obama, $47 million. that's $47 million, all of the republican candidates combined, $41 million. today we got some figures of the people who are raising money, bundling money, if you will, for barack obama. you won't be surprised to know a lot of them are from hollywood. brother of rahm emanuel, now mayor of chicago has raised between $50,000 and $100,000 for the president. hollywood producer jeffrey katzenberg has risen $20,000. there's one republican candidate running against president obama, you have all the money from the outside groups, the national committees, as well as the expenditure groups. i believe that the republicans and the democrats will probably be pretty much at parody, wolf. in te

a good pit stop is to get to an asterisk. we have not identify the actual asteroid yet, in case people are wondering. let's start stretching the boundaries so we're not doing the same thing over and over again. let's start thinking about the next horizon and frontier out there. to do that, we will need some technological breakthroughs that we do not have yet. for some of the low orbit stuff, for some of the low orbit stuff, more routine space travel , let's allow the private sectors to get in so that they can send these low orbit vehicles into space. we may be able to achieve a point in time where you can buy a ticket and a private carrier can potentially taking up there while the government focuses on the big breakthroughs the require much larger investments and involve greater risks. >> we received a lot of responses to your questions over the last hour. this one is from brian. cut defense contracting, stop the war on drugs, eliminate agricultural and business subsidies. >> that is not a bad list. [laughter] defense contrac
