cartwright. >> i want to invite you folks to be with us tomorrow.n who is a authority on male menopause. our musical guest is going to be steven stills. >> priceless. that was david letterman's daytime show that aired on nbc in 1980 that ran for four months before being canceled. this week of course, it brings an end to an era of stupid pet tricks, top ten lists and david letterman who has been an innovateor and fixture since 19 0. we'll end his run on wednesday night. his final guests bill murray, tom hanks and eddie vetter. kevin fallin, entertainment editor "the daily beast." we've all grown up practically with david and all of his antics. we'll put up a list of things he's well-known for. stupid pet tricks those are fantastic. top ten lists extraordinary, as well. give me an idea of how david letterman changed the landscape of american tv. >> when he started johnny carson had created this genre where he invited us all into this polished slick showbiz world and dave introduced irreverence, irony and anarcism to it. he sort of conan o'brien said i

while david cartwright has done a superb job in organizing this academic conference, you should have had a different name for the first panel. instead of the word "just," it should have been the word "legal." you can have a just war that is not legal. we desperately need to bring the law back into this question of how you decide if a law is legal under national and international law. i want to say a couple of things about the most dangerous word -- double word in the english language -- self-defense. the charter of the united nations makes it perfectly clear that the only two circumstances in which a law is permissible is security council resolution, which you are never going to get with this security council or self-defense. self-defense has now gotten to the point where that great international lawyer dick cheney said 2% of the possibility of a country harming us would be enough for us to attack that country. that is what self-defense means these days. it's the same thing with ferguson and baltimore and staten island.

cartwright for five minutes. >> thank you mr. chairman. i thank also my colleague from massachusetts and wish to associate myself with his remarks when he talked about this is not astuff of the self preservation for members of congress. we think about not only ourselves but the people who come visit us from our districts and the young people who help do the work we do. thousands and thousands of young people interns and fellows and employee s employees on capitol hill here and we feel responsible to them their nams and their parents to keep them safe. all of these people are within the special flight rules area. they are all within the national capitol region flight area. and more than that the visitors who come and visit our national memorial, the world war ii memory memorial. the jefferson memorial. we just had the national cherry blossom festival a couple of weeks ago. there had to be well over 100,000 americans visiting. all of those areas are within the special flight rules area, are they not? that is correct. an area that was travers

according to joe cartwright and his colleagues at the city observatory since 1970 the number of high poverty neighborhoods in the united states has tripled and the number of people living in them has doubled. there tends to be to be a lot of focus on gentrification when they research those who have seen their poverty rates fall to below the national average. these fact may make us want to throw in the towel, thinking that the problems are much too big and far too complex for us to address, that no amount of effort or resources will really help us move the dial. but as we'll hear from our really stellar group of panelists today we have, in fact, learn a great deal about what it takes to bring people and neighborhoods out of poverty. from their decades of collective work and that of many, many others, we have a chance to assess what has succeeded and what has not and apply those lessons to their efforts moving forward. as our moderator for the panel amy lou will help us dive into these questions, daem together with bruce cats is the crow director and founder of the metropolitan policy

vice chairman of the joint chiefs of staff, general james cartwright suggested we can go even lower without jeopardizing security. yet, we're on a trajectory to spend over a trillion dollars in the decades to come on weapons that are largely irrelevant to the challenges of today, isis, 9/11 types of attacks, military activities in iraq and afghanistan, russian aggression in the ukraine. we should be addressing what is an appropriate level for the nuclear deterrence, but until we face up to what -- we ought to at least know what we're getting into. one simple step would have been to tell congress what the longer term costs are going to be. in the last legislation, i had an amendment that was successfully approved to require the c.b.o. to publish every two years a 10-year cost estimate of our nuclear modernization. it's already proven extremely valuable to provide us a set of numbers that we can compare to the pentagon's estimates, but unfortunately more and more of these expenses are being pushed outside the 10-year window. i had an amendment that would have at least required our being able
