second, we really have been focused, as bonnie mentioned, on increasing the frequency and timeliness of reporting. in the past, we reported on a quarterly basis. but there has been a 38 to the or more delay in some cases. where possible, we will be going to monthly reporting and trying to get wherever possible a 15- day turnaround. for all involved. third, we took a look at the existing service standards report and asked ourselves, is this a metric that is important? is it a useful metric? is this something that is easily digestible by the public? in some cases, we have some long key metrics that are not easy for folks to identify with. one is about gaps, because that is something that is very clear to people and very real. then we reviewed all of the recommendations and inc. those whenever possible. we really have an eye towards what we can establish an attorney to review these metrics on an ongoing basis and also do a better job of getting that information out to the public. in terms of some of the key changes, i will speak about the four goals in the strategic plan. the first goal

hello, i'm bonnie erbe. welcome to "to the contrary," a discussion of news and social trends from diverse perspectives. up first, wooing women voters this week, women's health and finance issues dominated the presidential race. president obama toured college campuses in battleground states to gain followers for his so-called, "don't double my rate" campaign. >> don't double my rate. >> congress is debating how to pay for a plan to keep student loan interest rates low. a majority of those loans are held by women and minorities. congress is also still wrangling with the violence against women act, which is up for renewal. late this week, senators reached a bipartisan agreement about parts of the bill. its future in the u.s. house is uncertain. and, presumed gop presidential nominee mitt romney is under increased pressure to pick a female or minority running mate. polls show romney is losing among female and hispanic voters in polls comparing his support to that of president obama: so, what can mitt romney up w

hello, i'm bonnie erbe. welcome to to the contrary, a discussion of news and social trends from diverse perspectives. up first, the president, women and the economy. as president obama seeks to reenergize his female base, the white house is focusing on the administration's commitment to women and jobs. this week, the white house held a forum on women in the economy. we sat down with cecilia munoz, the director of the domestic policy council to discuss what the administration has done for women. >> working hard on making sure the economic recovery reaches all corners of the country. that is real for women all over the country that we are engaging in helping people start small businesses. helping people find access to capital and making sure that work is aimed at small businesses but also aimed at women and minority-owned businesses. i think we have important work going on there. the affordable care act had a huge impact on women. we now know that 2 1/2 million young people, half of whom are young women v cove

hi, bonnie. >> we are look at nice weather to wake you up across the country.ht now i want to draw your attention to where we're seeing heavy rain, the midwest. we had quite a bit of rain over the past weekend and more of it is working its way into kansas city and st. louis. particularly further to the south and west. in oklahoma city, heavy thunderstorms are coming in. baseball-sized hail fell in illinois. incredibly large hail and very damaging to anyone in its path. this will be what we expect to see going through the next month or so because we are in the heart of severe weather season where we get these intense thunderstorms and they produce large hail. so, as we look at the flood threat overnight, we'll be watching for it in parts of missouri, oklahoma and texas. down in florida, we have seen quite a bit of rain over the weekend. the totals take us to three to five inches. you can see why. plenty of rain sweeping into the miami-dade area this morning. those's threat for severe weather across parts of the midwest and into the south, we're looking at that i
