it is hard to cut back health care, the way you can cut back depo maintenance or training. you can't just tell people they can't be sick or they can't see a doctor. you can do a little of that with elective procedures and so forth but the reality is by the end of the year, by our estimates a few billion dollars short and that will mean either, trying to kick bills into the next year or we're going to have to simply cut back on the care we can provide. >> let me ask the secretary. >> we're looking for a way around on what i view as a crisis. our best way by far, either detrigger this. but let me add my voice to that. we need to not do this. >> my understanding is, the navy is continuing to -- with this program of two submarines, is that correct? >> only in 2013. the 2014 we don't have an appropriation bill and a that issue is unresolved for that submarine. the two boats in 2013 are under contract and proceeding is questionable based on the congressional outcome and the proper authorities. >> i'm very concerned as my colleagues have said about the affect on our defense, our w

they are mostly people at depos and shipyards that are fixing our equipment. 44% of them are veterans. 86% of them don't even live in the washington area. and later in the year, just two weeks' time we have to substitute a process of furloughing them which we will do consistent with the law and our requirements to you. the net of it is many will be furloughed for as many as 22 days for april first and the end of a year. the fifth of the paycheck gone. so that's a real human impact. i have said i can't be furloughed under the law because i'm a presidential appointee. but i'm going to give back a fifth of my salary in the last seven month of the year if other people in the department are getting sequestration. there's an imminent impact here. the last impact i would like to call to your attention is that on our defense industry. you know, we depend on our deafen -- depend on the defense industry because second to the magnificent people we have in uniform is what makes our military great. and the effect of sequestration are going to be very significant on the defense industry. we see it

if sequestration was to take effect, we'd be talking about job losses to the toby hannah arm depo which is something that for the last 60 years has provided electronic refurbishing to army equipment. we're talking about command and computer and communications control, to army equipment that's referbished right there in toby hannah, pennsylvania, by as many as 5,400 patriotic work people, supporting our war fighters for the last 60 years with this kind of electronic equipment. we're talking about cuts to toby hannah army depo of $309 million over 10 years as a result of this reckless and irresponsible sequester. we're talking about teachers and schools. pennsylvania is going to lose $26.4 million in funding for primary and secondary education. putting around 360 teacher and teacher aides jobs at risk. about 29,000 fewer students will be served and approximately 90 fewer schools would receive funding if this nonsincecal sequester program goes through. head start -- head start and early head start services in pennsylvania alone would be eliminated for approximately 2,300 children, reducing

robert hatcher: depo provera, the three month injection, an excellent, excellent method of birth control and highly effective but it has one of the most-- one of the highest discontinuation rates because it's the method that means you have to come back every three months and there's no method that requires-- it's more rigorous in terms of return visits. norplant is a contraceptive that is implanted just under the skin. robert hatcher: well the norplant advantages are you get five years of contraception and it's looking as though it may be effective for more than five years, maybe up to seven years. you decrease the amount of menstrual blood loss. you decrease the amount of menstrual cramps. you have highly effective contraception with nothing to do on a day-to-day basis or a month-to-month basis. on the bad side, it takes a very minor procedure to put them in, a little bit more extensive procedure to get them out. daniel mishell: so now the american woman has four extremely effective reversible methods of contraception: the pill; the iud; the injections, and the implants. and more to com

readiness for six divisions and an estimated $3.36 billion impact to the communities surrounding our depos. for fiscal year 2014 and beyond, sequestration will result in the loss of at least an additional 100,000 personnel, soldiers from the active army, the army national guard and the u.s. army reserve. combined with previous cuts, this will result in a total reduction of at least 189,000 personnel from the force but probably even more than that. these reductions will impact at the army base and every installation in the army. sequestration will result in claze to every one of our 10 major modernization programs. the inability to reset our equipment after 12 years of war and unacceptable reductions in unit and individual training. these cuts will be felt across the entire country. since 2008, the total army budget will have been reduced by 37%. if sequestration is enacted it will be greater than 45%. in my opinion, sequestration is not in the best interest of our national security. it will place an unreasonable burden on the shoulders of our soldiers and civilians. we will not be able to

home improvement retail and i put a piece out for our clients last week talking about lowe's and home depoey here. all the data suggests that with mortgage rates lower, i think comp is improving, housing market improving, that's helping to bolster home improvement spending. we have seen some signs out there. not in my coverage universe, but some signs of weakness related to presumably the payroll tax cuts. that's more spotty than anything broad-based this morning. >> larry bossidy is here. >> home depot and lowe's have competed with each other for years and from time to time one has an edge over the other. it seems to me that home depot is doing more innovative things right now and that lowe's has to kind of refashion itself, if you will, in order to regain position that they had previously. what's your view on that? >> no, i think that's a good observation. you know, i think probably the easiest way to think about that from a number's standpoint is that home depot has been outcomping lowes for eight quarters. we'll see what home depot reports tomorrow. i assume the comp at home depot will

these critical members of our workforce, they work in our depos.hey maintain and work on our crafts, our ships, they teach our kids. >> but how much do furloughs really save? of the $46 billion in mandated military cuts, the pentagon calculates it will account for 10%. the number two official at the defense department is vowing to stand with his workers. >> i can't be furloughed under the law because i'm a presidential appointee. but i'm going to give back a fifth of my salary in the last seven months of the year. >> now, there will be exemptions, we are told, workers who are essential for safety and security of military bases and other facilities, some health care workers, some military law enforcement personnel. but this -- if it goes into effect, wolf, will hit very hard beginning in the march/april time frame. wolf? >> we know the pentagon will be cut $46 million for a total of the fiscal year. but how much discretion do they have at the pentagon, barbara? can they get rid of big ticket gun programs, weapons instead of furloughing these thousan

but clearly, where we have our large bases, where we have our large depo it will be affected. >> we have some state-by-state and if it is virginia, california, you may not be surprised. >> the sequestration in general. >> the furloughs, probably both, but i was talking about furloughs specifically. >> we can get you that. i don't see why not. >> for the strategic and budgetary assessments have set a 45 billion-dollar cut would basically take the defense department back to 2007, 2006 levels. when you're fighting each war in iraq and afghanistan. why can't the department of this or that kind of cut, rather than lay it on these draconian consequences? what's wrong with that picture? using to have a lot of money if you look back at 07, 06. >> a 46 billion-dollar cut will occur five months into the year when we have expended a lot on the side we will have expanded 512th of the money so we have to take it in a seven month period. and without frankly the time to get ready. but more generally, i would say i've always troubled if we are trying to determine the adequacy of the defense budgets base

we will lose part of our civilian work force, our depos will be smaller so the backlog of the equipment coming back, we are still resetting the equipment that came out of iraq last year. that will delay that. it will delay the equipment coming out of afghanistan. that decreases your readiness level. instead of being ready by 2014, it might be ready by 201. it is because of the uncertainty of the world. we just don't know when we might have to go somewhere. nobody knows. 36 years in the army but i will take the last -- since 1989 or 1990, we have not predicted well hen to use forces. when the wall came down in europe people said this is it we don't need anymore. a year later we're deploying to the deserts of kuwait, we went into somalia then somewhere in there we had panama. you just don't know. it is our responsibility to be prepared if the president needs the use of military that will we're ready and prepared. i'm concerned that we will be able to do that as we move into the future over the next couple of years. >> you can watch all the general's remark here at 8:00 eastern here on c-s
