i talked with miracle blackman from at&t this evening about this but that's what he told me the technology in the case of those utility cabinets has not dramatically changing changed. one more technical question do those things operate serially in other words do you have a have a series of boxess to connect up for the service in the area or - >> with our permission i think i know what the answer is but hang on. so my understanding is this is it's a distribution network you know the fiber goes out and connects with the rest of the network. and but that does not softly solve the cabinet one limits on where those utility cabinets can be pleased they have to be placed within 3 hundred feet of the utility cabinets that are already there. you know the benefit obviously of moving from fiber to from copper to a fiber network is that it allows people s to have all the device working in an iv platform >> thank you. commissioners the group 3 appeals are submitted. >> their subsequentially drift from the first 2 groups. i'll add with regard to the 5 will 85 issue i still feel that it's noted positive

blackman from tuesday in which we noeftsd ms. functioning that at&t will be sending a letter under the state statute that cities are permitted to meeting the 60 day deadline. a must months later on august 16th after a meeting ms. functioning sent a letter from august 16, 2013. ms. functioning wrote as i understand it during the meeting at&t expressed concern that the structure 60 day turn around requirement. the city simply doesn't have discretion to deny the applications and the city has offered no liquidity legal explanation as to the 5 permit applications in particularly on 198 palm at issue i see my time is essentially up >> go ahead i want to clarify there's no argument specific to 198 palm. >> well commissioner president lazarus i would disagree one of the arguments the city discretion to deny the cabinet. >> i think we've heard that before. >> there's no evidence in the record as to the permit location that the original proposed location would in any way block the public right-of-way that's not an argument i made at the la

blackman met with the department and told them that the city was not complying with the law and at&t expected the department to meet it's obligations under united states law. there's no hardship law to this section this which is apparently what the department is trying to august and once more there is noting nothing to prevent the department from acting as mr. quan said in the last meeting it's not a lack of staff or resources under the law at&t pays for the entire process for the hearing officers and the staff in making the depreciations and why it can't schedule the the process the department has not been able to find a room to hold hearing that does not excuse the department from following the law. it is exercise of discretion must be reasonable the reason for the departmentalize was there might be not that there might be some more preferable room. that's not a reasonable reason because there will be a hypothetical position that's not a lawful basis to deny the permits finally the last limitation open the cities discretion the city is required to follow its own rules which it has

congress woman blackman, a republican, you a democrat from new york - how did the two of you get togetherhen most of congress can't seem to do that? >> well, i believed strongly that the level legislation is always bipartisan. i was looking for a partner, someone to work with. >> as you know, critics say that there are too many museums in washington d.c. that already highlight women's history. what do you say to that? >> which ones? the smithsonian has an exhibit of first ladies and their gowns. there is a museum for women artists, which is rented out all the time for parties. there is a museum in upstate new york for the founding mother of the abolitionists movement and the human rites movement and out west for the pioneering women. i don't know of a museum that celebrates the contributions of women in an organised and thoughtful way. and the other museums on the mall. they don't have women's divisions. ask the critics what they are talking about. >> you have been fighting for this for a long time. in 2010 two republicans, tom coburn and jim dimint blocked the bill saying the country sho

blackman into talks about the involvement of black soldiers from the revolutionary war through i believeworld war ii or even vietnam. in that section he talks about the use of the black regiments in no man's land to test for gas. the troupe was sent out in front of the white troops to test if the germans were using gas and i wondered if that was accurate of what to did in fact happen and if you found any evidence of that in your research. a >> when i was researching that didn't involve. later as the war progressed and they came around so much so that they organized the division that fought in the 93rd division but then there was the 92nd and they were completely set up to fail so i wouldn't be surprised. one of the things about world war i that made it different is the first time you had large amounts of black officers into that was scary for the white status quo because they had already accepted that a black man could be brave and fight. but to lead in combat nothing takes more intelligence than that when the bullets are flying it shows an extraordinary amount of not just intelligence b

they wanted to just spread this fear of uncertainty and doubt, and i might note that congresswoman blackman used that word, with which is at the core of their campaign to try to confuse people about the affordable care act. but the numbers are telling a different story and that's what we're going to be seeing, i think, between now and november. >> well, that was what was fascinating about that hearing yesterday, the kind of curtain raising moment republicans hyped this report. the insurance company said don't go with this data. it's shoddy. they were prepared to have their big political moment in the sun. the insurance executives who have been on both sides of obamacare at different times said actually, yes, people are paying. >> that's exactly right. and we've been -- i've been saying this -- i've been watching the analyst reports for health insurance companies as they've been releasing earnings. they've been doing very well, thank you, since the health care law was passed. their earnings have been almost off the charts in many cases as more people are signing up, which, you know, it makes
