the baseline concept at the fourth and townsend station includes a configuration through the station supported by a center platform for caltrain service stop. third passing track for california high speed rail. at the time this baseline was developed, california high speed rail has not planned a service stop at this location. with the proposed reconfiguration of the fourth and townsend station, areas track configuration from this location to the transit center -- you know what, i'm sorry, jason, could you bring up page 4, which is the schematics. what i wanted to point out with the station layout that you saw, that enabled a different configuration that i got on the screen. the operation analysis shows the new configuration supports the operator service plan of eight peak hour caltrain in each direction and four peak hour high speed rail train in peak direction. in scenario in those cases, performance met the operator service standard including perturb situation. the reduction allows reduced diameter size. compared with the configuration, this change results in cost reduction of abou

it's certainly accurate that we have not completed the baseline pruning.uld like to note that we were projecting to be on track to complete in 4 and a half years so within our first five-year goal before the pandemic hit and obviously affected us in many ways. both our contractors andour internal crews . we support the recommendations to establish annual pruning goals. we have not yet done this because it's tricky since we're still addressing the deferred maintenance when weinitially inherited the trees . it's hard to judge what future pruning is until we kind of touched everything for the first time but we support that we're working on trying to create realistic goals with the understanding that once we get throughbaseline we may actually adjust those goals a little bit annually . i would say we are strong supporters of the recommendation to develop a recruitment for arborist technicians , classifications before before specific to publicworks . as noted we already have 2 recruitments and yet we have rehired a small number of arborists and because we also

we don't have disagreements with one another based on any common baseline of information anymore.ther it's critical race theory, whether it's the assault on the capital in january, whether it's barack obama being born in kenya, there are sources of information that are now readily available to anyone that will confirm their pre-existing notions or worldview, depending on what the subject or debate of the day is. i think you can draw a straight line from what was just described with the historical analog of the post-civil war time today, where you knew when the hours after the attack on the capital on january 6, you knew that that history was going to be rewritten in real time and that it wasn't going to be long before people who were in that building that day, taking cover, putting gas masks over their faces, fleeing for their lives into a bunker that was secured by capitol police, those very people would, within days if not weeks, begin reshaping and re-crafting the story of what actually took place that day to suit their own political ends. so it's not a new routine that were se

that is my baseline understanding, and that is very widely held among people. but we are prepared for different eventualities and we will use our tools to achieve price stability and maximum employment, and we will let the data latest to where we need to go. our policy is already adapted to the changing understanding of inflation and the bottlenecks in the supply story, so our policy will continue to adapt as is appropriate. >> you announced that the fed is going to taper at a rate that is more than twice the pace of the last taper. why are you tapering investor? >> the economy is in quite a different place than when we tapered back in 2013. we were much farther away from maximum employment, inflation was much lower. this is an economy where demand is very, very strong. and job openings substantially exceed the number of unemployed people. so the need of further stimulus is far less than it was. in 2013, we still had quite a ways to go. we had many years before we reach what i would characterize as conditions consistent with maximum employment. so it was quite

you need a baseline to produce the energy everyone needs -- the electricity everyone needs. >> europeanies of natural gas remain tight so prices will continue going up. that will most likely push european countries, germany in particular, to revisit coal and fuel oil. is this a good option given the coalition with the greens will dismiss it? >> it is too early to predict what the new coalition will decide. they keep everything secret on the whole coalition agreement. in the next week we will know what the compromises will look like. we can read the decision today as a way to buy time for the new government to decide how to balance conflicting interests and fulfill requirements from the eu to divide the operation and network. this is technically an important reason for the agency for why they decided that way. but i think it is also a geopolitical bargaining chip in ongoing discussions with russia and belarus. if one makes a move, another country makes another move and that doesn't have to do with energy. >> this is a crisis with geopolitical proportions. russia supplies 35% so there is

here i think the reasoning works in the opposite direction which is typically you have a baseline right to carry for self-defense and the only historical analogs that restricted the right of a typical law-abiding citizen to care for self-defense to the same degree as the new york law very few typically post reconstruction that purported to eliminate any right to carry openly or concealed and those were essentially invalidated by any court applying the individual rights view of the second amendment into those decisions of course were exhaustively considered by this court in heller and those decisions were praised for their understanding of the second amendment and the relationship between the prefatory clause and equally important they were set forth and singled out by this court. and the restrictions that were comparable to what the district of columbia was doing. >> if we look at, you mentioned the founding and the post reconstruction, if we are to analyze this based upon the history of tradition, should we look at the founding or should we look at the time of the adoption of the 14th

inquiry. >> in terms of that baseline, how important is this interview in your mind, overall, basede know publicly about where this could lead? >> well, i think the attempt to politicize the department of justice was probably the single most dangerous effort by president trump in the post election time. the idea of the department of justice actively interfering in state electoral actions in the way that clark was advancing should scare every american. and but for the apparent real bravery of people like jeff rosen and pat rejected that, we may have gone down a very dark path. getting to the bottom of this and figuring out what kind of guardrails we can put in place prevent it in the future is vitally important. it is more about the institutions and less about clark. >> i want to get your take on what we're seeing in this fight, by former president trump to keep the documents away from the committee, not have the national archives release them. the judge ruled yesterday, interesting points. number one in noting that former president trump's attorneys basically wanted them to go throu

i think my baseline expectation is still, as i mentioned, inflation will move down over the course ofext year kosher -- next year closer to our target. clearly the expectation has risen and you have seen the policy adapt and you will see it continue to adapt. we will use our tools to make sure higher inflation does not become entrenched. >> i noted in your opening statement you indicated inflation pressures will linger into next year. you stand by that? chair powell: i think we can now see, certainly through the middle of next year, the expectation. forecasting is not a perfect art, as you may have noticed, but yes, into the middle of next year. that is our expectation, but what has happened is that date has been pushed out repeatedly as supply chain problems have not improved. >> if congress were to pass an additional $2 trillion in spending mixed with a number of increases in taxes, would that add to inflationary pressures? chair powell: i'm sorry. i will just know that we have a long-standing policy of not commenting on active legislation , as you probably are not surprised to hear

you have more stringent penalties and a more stringent baseline from which to operate.tep two is -- host: go ahead. sorry about that. guest: i have use on this. step two is economic. once you have that diplomatic baseline you can begin to enforce existing multilateral sanctions, begin to work with partners such as the u.k., which post-brexit has an independent sanctions shop. her majesty's treasury is the world's second biggest sanctions shop. with all of the states that do not want to do tough penalties, they have the opportunity under this economic pressure policy to go after tehran's missile programs, drone programs, terrorism. it doesn't have to be nuclear only. you want to enforce the penalties you have received, and keep adding to the pressure through treasury designations, perhaps even action through congress. lastly, in the military domain want to make sure the arabs in the region can coordinate more, he want more public military drills, you want to make sure the u.s. is working overtime with its gcc partners to make sure they have what they need to defend thems

my baseline expectation is still as i mentioned, and most forecasts are so but it will move back downr the course of next year closer to our target. we will use our tools to make sure that higher inflation does not become entrenched. >> i spoke to someone about what he expects from central banks. >> jerome powell removed the term transitory. he says we should no longer be calling it transitory. but one of the difficulty is central banks have had at this point is that a lot of the inflationary pressures we are seeing our the result of supply chains. that is not the type of inflation that central banks have the tools to fight. frankly, the fed raising rates does not help get it shipped from china to the u.s. quicker and that is the issue we are seeing. one could argue that higher energy prices, higher food prices might hurt households further down the line and lead to growth slowing. so it is a complex situation for central banks to deal with. in the u.s. in particular, there is the publication of labor market distortions. large government handouts early in the year have short up the he

that baseline was keeping the lights on for infrastructure. it was not, however, getting us ahead of the curve in terms of the changes that are happening in other countries around the world. with the new money that was included in the bipartisan infrastructure bill, we are seeing a huge increase, both in roads and bridges, but also in rail, also in the electric grid, also in broadband, which is now critical for any economic development for small communities to be able to tell companies and business that is they have high-speed internet. what does that mean in terms of the state of connecticut? it means that the roads and bridges, which, again, is a big focus. got a 32% increase in terms of the state's allotment, which will flow through the state department of transportation. some of the old bridges in our state, again the largest vehicle bridge is the gold star bridge, which is part of the i-95 corridor. has been getting a pounding since it was built in 1943. the northbound lane right now, frankly, is so compromised that large trucks are basic

and this is already the baseline. the baseline from c.b.o. already says in 29 budget years weir $112 trillion of borrowed money and that's assuming, really stable interest rates. assume nothing more wars. assuming no more major recessions. we were doing one attempt to try to calculate these numbers so the penn-wharton model that was published actually today where they were trying to figure out how much more it would add to the debt. the penn-wharton model said if the spending is continued, which is the obvious thick that's going to happen, it adds $24.4 -- it adds 24.4% to the debt. ok. now we didn't have enough time to break through all their tables and we'll work through that but just off the top of your head, $112 trillion. you add 24.4% on it, that's, what, close to $140 trillion of borrowed money. 139-something. you've got to understand this is what the left is leading us to. instead of coming in and saying we're going to protect medicare by investing in things that cure. remember, this medicare dollar, you know, $77 trillion plus of bor

kristen: the baseline from the state is that you are either vaccinated or you have the option to do the weekly test to opt out of vaccination. this is coming at a time where the state has already spelled out that kids, students are going to need to be vaccinated, in order to be able to continue going in person. i know that hasn't started yet. i don't think they have a firm date yet, but is that right? >> yes. governor newsom has said students must be vaccinated as soon as the vaccine is fully approved by federal officials. that could come as early as january 1 or july. he has said that he expects the adults to follow the same standard when that happens for students. the question is, th, already approved for those 16 and older, so why is the governor waiting to mandate the adults in schools to be vaccinated? he's already said the students will have to be vaccinated as soon as it's fully approved. it's a big question mark and we still have not gotten an answer other than the governor saying he expects adults to be held to the same standards as students. kristen: for those who criticize th

the world that did not see a reduction in emissions in 2020 and so they already began from a high baseline are you encouraged by any of the agreements that have come out of the summit in glasgow? we are seeing 190 countries vowing to shift away from coal they say in the last day. i know obviously that is not china the us or australia which are quite dependent on coal, but that is a step forward, isn't it? there are definitely many steps being made in the right direction and a lot of strong promises being made by countries for later in the century getting to net zero by 2050 or 2060 for china, 2074 india. again, talk is cheap and it is easy for leaders to make promises to do things 30, a0 or 50 years from now. the real question is what near—term agreements will we see and what increases in ambition will we see. there has been some progress but not as much as many of us would have hoped. those numbers are stark. it is estimated global emissions need to drop by 1.4 billion tons each year to reach that net zero by 2050. it was 1.9 billion tons that it fell in 2020 during lockdown. so when coun
