computers to speed up depreciation through 2009. that is helping small businesses to write off losses to help folks get back to work. this is an opportunity. we have made a down payment on america's future. mr. perriello: they are going to come in research and development and need the strong universities and strong infrastructure. year ago, we made a down payment that is starting to pay off and the kind of rebounding we are starting to see. we cannot take our foot off the gas. this is the time. americans are ready to build. and again, this shouldn't be a partisan idea. we all have construction companies in our districts. we all have roads, bridges, water and sewer systems in our districts. we have small businesses that help supply that construction sector. we must see that this can be a chance to come together and understand the urgency of this moment. we have made that down payment. now it's time to start seeing that growth and we are going to do that by saying yes to america's future and saying yes to america's competitive advantage. there are many in the top of this country who stopped bleesk that america can man

>> one of the things we continue to do is work closely with the sign tickets and use the best science and super computersooking at our water systems, looking at our buildings. regularly doing our exercises. this is why governor schwarzenegger has been so insistent that we have to improve the delta water system. we look and we know that that water system is vulnerable. that's why he went with the legislator to make sure we're putting it on the bonds for this fall, $11 billion investment to secure that water system. because we know it's not safe. but we've made investments in san francisco on buildings. we've just seismically retrofitted the b.a.r.t. tunnel. so we continue to prepare for these things. the difficulty, of course, is these are no-notice events. we have to continue to insist that we're prepared, because it's not a matter of if a large earthquake of 7.8 is going to happen here in california, or even in the midwest, along the new madrid fault, it's a matter of when it's going to happen. that's why we exercise annually. >> matt, we've got to leave it there. secretary of california's emergency man

computer all day long. when you're at your desk working, you can say you know what?ises, i'm going to slip forward a little bit, do some tricep extensions. it will be great if your boss walks in, too. >> right. >> but from there you can get on to the floor. these are my favorite. you can do some push-ups. and you know, if your boss comes in and needs to speak to you, you can just say i'm really busy right now. >> now do you do this in your office? is this what you do? >> i have once in awhile i have done it in my office. but i think if you make it fun in your office and say, you know what, your whole area is going to get up and do this together. >> my wife does this at home. she brought her laptop into the kitchen so she stands the whole time when she does her e-mail and all that stuff. >> better to stand than to sit. when you're on the phone, it's always, just move around. >> moving, moving. >> dr. jennifer ashson, thank you so much. up next, 40 years of changes for women in the workplace. but how much have things really changed? talk about that when we come back. >

computing is entering every spectrum of kind of our lives, both from the entertainment standpoint and workndpoint. you're just-- just like your cell phone got smart. your television's going to get smart in the next few years. your car-- i was in germany meeting with the auto manufacturers, driving a car with 3-d maps, taking internet information, overlaying it over the maps and giving you real-time feeds on what you want and where you're driving. almost compelling enough to take your eyes off the road, perhaps. but very interesting. so i think all of these things are going to be connected, virtually everything that's electronic will be connect to the internet and have a brain. and what we can do if we do it right is have common user interfaces for people because people don't like learning a new thing for everything they do. it's going to have to be simple, intuitive, and useful and pro active, and give us the information we want. and in terms of inintel's role, i think we have the chance to power every one of those units. >> rose: and they have the kind of margins that you need and the kin

we have to have chairs for people to sit on while they work and we have to have computer systems, but most of these spaces are fairly modest. i do not know this particular one. host: robert groves is director of the u.s. census bureau. please go ahead. caller: a lot of people view the census data with suspicion. why are there some questions about hispanics? guest: the first question -- let me express my view of the history of this. americans are a feisty lot. there are controversies over the census that go back forever. i have all the newspaper stories from the 1800's where people were worried about this. i think it is part of our nature to be a little suspicious of government. to those people suspicions, i remind you that this is a constitutional thing. i have actually forgotten your second question. host: the hispanic -- >> guest: it is an attempt to separate ethnic origin from the race question. >> tomorrow on "washington journal," a discussion of anger and acts of aggression as a result of the passage of health- care legislation. a member of the job opportunities task force and a

computers. on a larger company they can do this across a net work a lot faster.it is a combination of hardware as well. for example, if you have a co-worker surfing pornographic websites and you tell someone about that, they can then confiscate that laptop and analyze the hard drive to be able to determine whether or not that computer was actually on a sexually explicit website. >> i think i heard you mention a moment ago that this type of surveillance is, in fact, legal, and we hit on what kind of thing you should do at work to keep from getting in trouble. one, just to do work when you're at work, but you know, if you want to check your facebook and all this every once in a while, is there a way to get around some of the this spy gear, if you will? >> there are always ways to get around technology, but the question is do you really want to put yourself in that position? if you want to did personal things i suggest getting a personal cell phone to send e-mail and do your calls on that or a personal laptop. if you're receiving a laptop from work and you're taking

in the middle of the batman film, you know, they could computer generate heath ledger if they had had to. but i talked to the people who do that work and they said we can make it look and sound like heath ledger but we can't make it heath ledger. so i think that concern may be, you know, a bit exaggerated. although there are filmmakers who are sort of control freaks and probably would be very happy to generate all sorts of creatures. the argument from the cameron side of things, the "avatar" side of things it is like prosthetics it like a mask. it enables to you do a richer performance. it doesn't take the actor out of the occasion. >> and just briefly in our last 30 seconds here, i mean as i said in our setup, we've seen this before t has been trum eted before. there is still a question mark whether this is a passing fad but in the meantime we're going get more of them whether we like them or not. >> we will. and i have to say i don't think this like that. i think we're moving to a place where there will be a pretty much of a major standard of 3-d, especially when it comes into your home, which is in the foreseeable future. and yo

host: how much of your work is done on the computer? all of it? guest: no, no, we're operational. i'd say we collect a lot of material from the internet, and we do a lot of analysis on the computer, but to be honest with you, the real material, the heart and soul of the material we collect is done through undercover operations in which we send people in to actually tape record or video record islamic radicals making speeches calling for death to america or support for terrorism. there's a need for going into the field. you can't avoid that. of course, you can buy videos and audio on the internet, but generally speaking, those living in america, especially some of the savvy militants, and i'm not including the entire islamic community. i'm talking about islamic militants. they're savvy enough to know they shouldn't be putting out stuff that's radical on the internet. they do, however, say things behind closed doors. in fact, just yesterday in the virginia house of delegates there was an imam who convened the opening of the virginia state delegates assembly. he was reported by us as

working together. in this area, era of globally integrated computing platforms, security threats in one country can put the entire global enterprise at risk. worse, securities become a pretext often for forced compliance with government imposed technically deficient standards, disadvantaging u.s. companies which support global standards and putting the entire internet at risk. unfair treatment of internet users and providers threatens the internet's fundamental modus ap ran dye, transbarreny. rapid innovation of the internet and applications that run on it. despite recent attention to vulnerabilities in the internet inf infrastructure, we must not lose sight that enables us to communicate through a common platform. transbarrensy at the heart of the internet's suction. looking forward the commerce department will continue its sectionful tradition of developing government industries civil society partnerships supporting internet development. we've been heartened by the global initiatives ongoing efforts. the government must be a full partner in this effort we believe standing up for individuals and busin
