army corps of engineers. i think i speak for all of us when i say that a well-funded army corps of engineers means good jobs and important infrastructure improvements in the regions helped by their projects. mr. himes: of particular interest to me is the special role that the army corps plays in mitigating floods created by severe weather events in our communities. i know i'm not the only member in this room whose district was avaged by superstorm andy. -- superstorm sandy. chairman frellen hughesen -- frelinghuysen's district was also affected by the storm and sandy is only an example of the magnitude of damage our cities and towns suffer when they're not adequately prepared. with limited resources available after a storm like sandy, flood mitigation efforts have become more important than ever. an ounce of prevention is, as they say, worth a pound of cure. mr. chairman, madam chairman, back in 2010 i was able to secure an authorization for the army corps of engineers to conduct flood mitigation studies in m

by the corps. this current rule brings certainty and protects the environment. now, both the e.p.a. and the corps have stated they are considering revising the definition of fill material. from unelected bureaucrats to redefine this important definition would have a significant impact on the ability of all earth-moving industries, road and highway construction projects and private and commercial enterprises to obtain vital clean water act section 404 permits. mr. gibbs: changing the definition of fill material could result in the loss of up to 375,000 high-paying mining jobs and further this administration's assault on over one million jobs that are dependent upon the economic output generated by these operations. congress should therefore reject any attempts to add a new, inappropriately narrow definition of the term fill material that would not only harm existing operations but would also halt many new job-creating projects. i urge all the members to oppose this amendment and i yield back. the ch

the fact is the corps has an even larger backlog. and these projects are not just $2 million will complete. takes $500,000 to begin the nepa process or the sampling of the soil or something like that. small amounts at the beginning can initiate an authorization later on. this is a national issue. let me speak just about louisiana because you could easily speak about your own state. the gasoline that's sold in philadelphia is produced in st. charles parish. if that -- if a hurricane knocks out that petro chemical plant, gasoline prizes rise by -- prices rise by 20 cents in the northeast. now, you can say something similar in ohio. mr. garamendi in california, and others elsewhere. we are not saying initiate a process which completely funds. we're saying give seed money so that place can begin the process where later on we can make a decision with regard to funding. we can, as mr. richmond said, either spend a little bit now and potentially save billions in the future or in our budget priorities we can say we're going to be penny-wise

army corps of engineers. but with that in mind, i've come to the floor this evening with an idea that i think could mitigate the effects of those cuts. my amendment has no cost, i will begin by saying that. my amendment has no cost associated with it. it simply expresses the sense of congress that the army corps of engineers should consider and prioritize projects that mitigate the danger of natural disasters. eastern north carolina is especially vulnerable to extreme weather events and other states have the same vulnerability. the corps works to improve the safety of communities near thes into river in north carolina and in princefield where hurricane floyd all but destroyed the town because of the rapidly rising and poorly contained tar river. my amendment would give added confidence to my constituents in north carolina and to many of your constituents as well. that the federal government is doing everything possible to protect and reinforce communities and enableds from natural disasters. for several years

or it shows the corps i was intimately involved in the cash management activities of the firm he knew. how summer money was a risk paid for the bank when he went before congress he said well i simply don't simply don't know where the money is and we know from those that see if you see compliant cites numerous recorded phone call he knew damn well where the money. and also the trustees report showed that j.p. morgan's chief risk officer barry super zero call corps on three days before the bankruptcy to say hey we think customer money is at risk here j.p. morgan was the custodian of a customer i mean they were going to say i'm. basically m.f. global's sent two hundred million dollars i believe over to j.p. morgan and then j.p. morgan want wanted what's called a comfort letter that said this was not customer money and the person handling that was laurie ferber she's an ex goldman sachs employee who at the time was the general counsel of and that's global and she kind of hemmed and hawed over the weekend as i understand about that letter and it was never signed and i'm just wondering why

under no circumstances was i going to go into the marine corps. you have to remember, i lived in columbia, south carolina, an hour, hour and a half drive from island. where else would they go? they would go to columbia, the swimming pool where i worked. i got to see marines up close and personal. they were crazy. and i did not want to fly airplanes. i thought that was inherently dangerous. the two things i knew, i would not fly, and i would not be a marine. any first year at the naval academy, my company officer was a gentleman by the name of john riley lowe. he was an infantry officer so much like my dad. was tough, but incredibly helpful. he so impressed me, i said, i want to be like him. >> how many sortis over vietnam? >> i flew 100 missions into north vietnam, laos, and cambodia. so during the campaign, i flew cal combat planes. >> what kind of planes? >> i was an a-6 fighter pilot. the best arpte god ever made. it was an attack aircraft. no super sonic flight flying. no sonic flying. all we did was deliver weapons to a target on the ground.

he went over 20 years in the marine corps last week. it could be his first time being there and last time. i took my wife and son back to columbia where my mom and dad and jackie's mom were and put them in an apartment. we went from travis air force base to what i thought was going to be iwankanichi, japan. i brought my dress drawers and a trunk. i landed, and they said, squadron, that's yesterday. take your trunk, go over to the hanger, and get out enough underwear and flight suits for a month. because you are going south. i said going south where? they said, can't tell you. when i called my wife, she said, what's this secret airbase? i said what are you talking about? she said it is on the cover of "time" magazine. i ened up in the jungle. the c.d.'s had gone in and cleared all the cobras and the jungle out. the air force had started putting in a runway for the f- 111, but could never get it to run the way they wanted it, so they abandoned it. they gave us an extra 1,000 strip, and we lived there for a year. >> i'll come back to the p

thomas also fought to ensure women had an equal role in the washington press corps.e assembled a lineup of formidable political reporters to help reflect on the life and career of helen thomas. we have judy woodruff, co-anchor of the news hour on pbs, ann compton, white house reporter for abc news, and of course cnn's candy crowley. thank you all for joining today. talk to me a little bit about that spirit of impertinence, the ability to ask the slightly barbed question. how do you remember that? >> well, helen never thought there was anything disrespectful about what she did, but she asked the uncomfortable questions. kind of speaking truth to power. and because she was a woman and because she did it to the president of the united states and because she did it from a wire service, she became the dean of the press corps, not because she was a woman or because of the question, because she worked for united press international and she spoke for all of us. and through the years, the many years all of us have known her, she never lost that edge. she was always the first

still is maintained under the corps of engineers.the education you got at west point was about building things, for, bridges, not about combat, not about how to function, not about training. in these parties they didn't even hold target practice for the most part. something which comes to the fore so dramatically as you recall from one part of the book where i am talking about you calculate how many shots are fired versus how many actually hit a target and the average is it takes 125 fired shots before you win somebody. that is not a compliment to marksmanship. that is about how well i do shooting trap. it is all a function of the lack of discipline, lack of training, these are not professionals and so that ineptitude means they never quite get things together for the knockdown blow. is like watching amateur boxing where two people who might be good at slugging each other but don't know how to bring it all to a conclusion. that said, these were still armies that fought with the most extraordinary kind of raw courage. it odd ulysses g

i love the peace corps, vanessa, dr. kerry, good to see you.r brainchild and you're partnering with the peace corps. what is the advantage of working with the peace corps on this initiative? >> there's actually been a lot of people working to help make this idea come to fruition. we're extremely pleased to be working with the peace corps because they have a 50-year history of putting extraordinary americans into the field in an integrated and very culturally sensitive way. it seems like a very natural partnership for us, global health, to work with them to be able to send doctors and nurses abroad as medical educators and nursing educators to build capacity and a pipeline for future causes. >> dr. humphrey, your mission is to do clinical work but also to create a whole new generation of medical professionals in country. >> that's exactly right. some years ago i had the opportunity to work with medical students in the niger republic. as a professor, you could never find a more appealing group of young people, but they were working at a tremendou

good god, exclaimed the division commander in the second corps. general meade is not going to retreat, easy? know he was not, but the credit may not belong to meade as much as it does to a hefty list of line officers who time and again during the three days of the battle seize the initiative on their own, and kept the army of the potomac from falling apart. names that most of us have never heard before, george to screen, samuel sprague carol, alexander webb, france's key, patrick o rourke, strong vincent, governor warren, norman hall, george standoff, and one of you probably have heard all too much about, joshua chamberlain, these names introduced union and who over and over again with a righteous spontaneity stepped out of themselves for a moment and turned the corner or a dime as i'm inexpressibly right moment and saved the day. a self starting performances became almost routine for union officers at gettysburg. by comparison, meade's command behavior at gettysburg was almost entirely reactive. in other words, the confederates acted and he respo

both under no circumstances would i go to the marine corps. i live in columbia, south an hour, an hour and a half drive from paris island. on the weekends, marines came to because back then, you know, where else were the black marines going to go. columbia ould come to and go to drew park swimming pool where i worked. reens up closeema and personal. they were crazy. fly airplanes.to i thought that was inherently dangerous. not fly and i would not be a marine. naval st year at the academy, my first company officer was by the name of john officer.e, an infantry so much like my dad. he was tough. but incredibly fair. and although we wrl together for just one year, for my freshman naval academy, he so impressed me that my senior year, i said i want to be like him. so i did it. >> marine. sorties over vietnam? missions over north vietnam, laos, and cambodia. combat. >> what kind of plane. >> the best airplane god allowed make.o it was awesome. sat side-by-side. tandem seating. an intact aircraft. no supersonic flying. all we did was deliver weapons

it deals with a corps of engineers new program that was put in place two years ago. specifically in the new orleans district called the modified charleston method. the corps changed the usual and normal method for mitigation, any kind of mitigation done on wetland throughout the country you have to mitigate if you are going to do development, and everybody understands that. everybody's worked with that over the years, but two years ago the corps changed specifically for the new orleans district that process and literally put in place a process that's made it very unworkable to do a lot of our flood protection projects and economic development projects. one of the things that we are doing here, this amendment, by the way, is identical to language that we passed in the same appropriations bill last year. so the house has already gone on record saying this is an unworkable plan by the corps of engineers. this new m.c.m. method as literally shut down many flood protection projects and economic development projects in south louisiana. so i think what we have been saying t
