we are not doing what are they doing we are not doing. >> we are doing a lot of things, number one, they -- they train their teachers better, they pay the teachers more, they treat the teachers like professionals, like my mom but treated as a professional, when she taught, you know, you know, the schools themselves aren't war zones, but they have real discipline, they made the proper investments in the schools. but it is not always a case of just money. let me give you an example we wanted to do at the university of north carolina we wanted to do our part to improve k through 12. and to do that, we figured, you know, we were not only part of the solution we were part of the problem because we produced most of the teachers so we wanted to produce, you know, more quality teachers, more math and science teachers, and so i said, surely already some federal programs that can help us do that as it turns out there were some, there were 82, we don't need 82 programs. we do need two or three good ones, charlie. we do $1.5 billion worth of scientific research at unc 1 of the large esest resea

do i need this test? why do i need this medicine? how does this medicine work? if patients start getting interested in their health and our starting to be more skeptical. tavis: you tell some alarming stories about patients and the book. you mentioned the health-care debate a moment ago, which really, as we all know, is not over. if republicans have their way, they will turn this over, and some parts of this law are still being challenged in the court system as we know it now, but what most troubles you about that debate? >> that debate was on numbers, and it was devoid of the fact that there are human beings, there are people are hurting because they do not get enough health care. there are people who are dying in this country because of the health care. i partly wrote the book because i wanted to put a human face on this and get away from these broad concepts and make people actually realized that this health care debate is about people hurting and people dying because they are not getting the care that they need. >> -- tavis: to your point, there is a story i

that you do. i want to attach myself to the comments of the doctor earlier in our shared interest, first and most importantly delivering these services to those in need. to the steextent we're able to effectively root out the fraud, more is available for those purposes. miss faulkner, i notice there was some testimony, i did want to correct the record to the best of my understanding, there was some testimony today about the pennsylvania administration's guidelines with regard to point at which there would be original begins of ability. there was a proposal. to the best of my understanding, there was collaboration on the part of the governor's office and they have made a significant change with regard to that guide line so that it's far more realistic. is that accurate? >> yes. what i'd like to say, been referring to the asset test, which was always in place in pennsylvania until 2008. but it's apples and oranges. the acid test is something different. yes, the governor reinstated it and increased t

what do you do on that? >> for all public contracts, public agencies need to see that there contractors have bonding in order for them to demonstrate they can complete the contract. sba provides an insured bond guarantee to those who do bonding to small businesses on public contracts. so there is an sba program on a maturity bonding, similar to what we do. it is a guarantee to be assured the in the event of a default, that is a guarantee. so there is a charity bond guarantee, structured differently than the sba guaranteed loan program. >> i am a big fan of marketing. let us know if you have a small business in there that we can patronize. thank you. -- in that area that we can patronize. >> i have a company here in san francisco. like all small businesses, working for the city of san francisco is difficult. cash flow is a problem. invoices' get paid anywhere from 60 to 120 days. being cash for, i do not know how that would help me qualify for a loan, but it is a problem. so my question is, where do you go, i

how do i do what i need to do that's both efficient and effective? what drives me to do that? blue cross/blue shield knows my profile as well as every other insurer in oklahoma. they know whether i'm an efficient physician. they know whether i order excess tests. they actually have a profile -- every insurance company in this country knows everything about every doctor's purchasing habits. they actually measure each doctor by what it costs them to care for an identical diagnosis. one of the things that's happening to medicare patients, because doctors are opting out, the people who are not opting out of medicare are not the best physicians. the ones that are opting out are the ones that don't need medicare patients. so market forces should reward doctors who are efficient, and get there. well, who knows that? medicare knows it, too, but you know it's anybody that wants to -- as long as you qualify for medicare, you're eligible, you're going to get paid. there's no market force on the quality of the physician, but there is, if i'm way outside for blue cross/blue shield, you kno

features or to do a play. having children changes your priorities, and i think having a steady, good gig, where you feel challenged as an actor, and also you have some sort of regular the in your life, which is difficult for any actor to muster, so this particular show when it did come along, and there were some other ones that either did not seem like the right fit, but i did do a couple of features, and i did a couple of television movies. i did a miniseries in the interim of those shows. my career is, to me, it is a work in progress, you know? there are certain things where i say, what would have been different if that would have happened instead? i am just interested in looking forward and continuing to work. there are a few things that isolette to do. there are some plays that i want to do before i shot it all down. but right now, this is a great gig. i certainly would love to do a couple of things. i want to get bac directing a little bit and see where that takes me. tavis: i am curious about the plate -

they do not. if you look at the numbers, the latest numbers or even look at the report on stateofthemedia.org, you will see that well over 60% of americans will cite television as their primary source of news. also, more and more americans are spending more time in transit, so they are either in their cars or on public transportation, so they are listening. the role of radio cannot be discounted either. but again, there have been many ways to try to attract young readers. more recently, have you seen the vice guides to everything? it is a cross between ntt -- mtv's "jackass" and "60 minutes," targeted at an 18 to 25 demographic, which a lot of people in this industry are trying to reach. there are a lot of things out there in terms of investigative journalism that are trying to target younger people that are very creative, but just going back to your point about not reading or getting your news online, people are very lazy, you know? a lot of us do not even want to read, do not have time to read.

we do not expect what you do not inspect. and if you don't put into place policies that encourage -- i am not saying being a whistle- blower, but encourage proper at 6, and i think -- proper ethics, and i think greg suhr stated very properly its starts in the police academy. u.s. no other position probably in the united states -- certainly not for some of our elected officials. yet no one who gets more scrutiny and more background checks and psychological checks and an 18-month probationary period. we as law-enforcement administrators hope that those kinds of people who do not meet on moral and ethical standard, we hope they do not pass or get through. sometimes they do. i find it interesting that this is the -- it has been 20 years, 15 months, and two days since the rodney king incident in los angeles. when i watch that incident. -- when i watched that incident, it gave me shivers. what bothered me -- it was not only the people hitting rodney king -- but it was the other 19, 20 officers who stood around and did nothing. and

how do they... what signs do they need to look for? that is a really good question, and i think all of the parents who are out there viewing this program are wondering, "what can i do to increase the likelihood that my kids don't end up with problems that lead to suicide, depression, or substance use?" i think the most important thing, first of all, is to just be a really good parent and listen. and then, secondly, educate yourself and learn about these things, learn about community resources and work together with other parents, particularly in your schools and your communities, to make sure that all of your kids together are getting what they need to grow up to be healthy and avoid problem behaviors. and when things do surface, i think it is really important for parents not to necessarily blame themselves, but definitely proactively get the kind of support they need, both for themselves and their children, to increase the likelihood that little problems won't turn into great big problems. yes. and fran, what do we tell parents in tho

so i will do that. >> you do yours and i'll read mine. seriously this is what happens all the time. >> this is why we like it informal. >> honestly at and he pretty much summed up what we do, but the book is really more than opposition research because when you get an two-way, you will find its like an 18 year road trip that i've been on with this guy and it has taken us into some very strange places. before i get going i really want to do a shout out to everyone who's been up from jackson. i really appreciate my friends over here, over here, that there come a 40% of the folks in a strainer from mississippi so that's great tv. we've been working together for probably longer than just 18 years since they've been doing opposition research because we were newspaper reporters together. robyn was fair. and so we went and that we work really well together, that we could do is finance that most reporters have fairly liturgy goes. alan i learned we could go out and cover a story together and not have much pride of authorship. now, that is not to

in everything we do. we had a hack-a-thon at the company where we allowed people to participate and just hack something together using these skills. and we had -- like i said, we have all the engineers and the product people but we also have the accountants and the finance people, and they're teaming up. and out of that we came up with a new process for deploying software to the site which we've never had before, which is fantastic, and a new mobile app that we're rolling out next week at south by southwest which we're really excited about. all came out of this improvisational techniques. what i'll saying about google is google says go ahead and do what you want for 20% of the time. what we're doing is we're trying to give you skills to use during that time. right? that's the difference between this. we've been very focused on sort of narrowing skills, how to problem solve, how to find the wheat, you know, from the chaff. what we didn't do is sort of how to plant seeds. and this is a skill that lets you p

and it requires a certain amount of bravery to take some cash and go and do it. what do you do? i have no stars. there was no one on that show that was really known to the public. that spirit at amc, that is why no matter what happens, i feel this deep loyalty to them. we had a meeting when we talked about the show, and we would look at each other and say, "do you like it?" that is the way we made the decision. tavis: coming full circle, and we have two minutes. i am thinking to myself that the show is over. you write all of this stuff. if you ever get like ammonia, what happens do -- if you get pneumonia, what happens to "mad men"? >> a lot of shows are like that, and that is just the risk you take. what happens if somebody is on the bench? tavis: that is another conversation. >> you are really important. tavis: what happens if the ideas stopped coming to you. >> well, i do not do this by myself, and that is the best thing about working with talented people. the person who does "weeds," she is from a show business family and is a deep the creative person and is like a sister to

if iran gets the weapon, we will do it. you do not have to do it now. the message to iran is that we are serious. he is saying to them that you have to stop building weapons. >> there is the snowball effect in the middle east if iran gets the weapons. >> the point charles krauthammer made last week is up for discussion. an attack on iran might get applause in amman, riyad, baghdad. the prospect of a shiite government concerns other parts of the middle east. it is a calculation. i think they all want to see iran not have the capacity to launch a nuclear weapon. i think president obama has made it clear that the united states would take all steps to keep iran from having a nuclear weapon without the israelis taking action. >> there is a serious point of view in the intelligence establishment that this is not a good idea for technical reasons about whether it could be well- executed. it is fine to say we will bomb them, but if it does not do what you are trying to do, it is not worth much. >> the saudis are saying if you do it, really do it. take them all

they might be able to do it and might do a good job. they are working way out of your field. >> let me challenge that. >> okay. >> first of all from a legal point of view there is a hell of a lot a contractor can do with no architect. there are contractors who are deeply experienced in kitchen remodels, who can come in and give you a very professional and well considered job. it really depends entirely on the situation. but i think it's an exaggeration to say you always need an architect. although i would agree that it wouldn't hurt at the beginning of considering a project to speak to an architect if you can find the right person to examine the question of whether you need an architect. >> i think it's also important that if you are going to move on with a job without an architect and you choose a builder you should make sure that builder has a track record of working without an architect and has the experience of working out details and getting his jobs signed off by the building department. in selecting the architect and the contract

what they're really looking for are, what can you do or what do you know how to do well... that will help me, the employer do my job ? we have a very busy office here. how do you see yourself fitting in ? i'm very enthusiastic and i work very well under pressure. well, those are important qualities. the next important key is eye contact. eye contact is very, very important, because it communicates to the employer a sense of sincerity... and a sense of being self-assured and confident. thank you so much. it's been a pleasure lydia. let me know when you want to see don. okay, i could do that tomorrow too. okay, why don't you do all of it ? you'll get a job. what a mess. don't worry, mr. brashov. we'll make it. i am talking about the ad in the paper: "new restaurant, grand opening." - well, that sounds fine to me. - yes, except there's no name in the ad. i'm sure people will find out eventually. hello ? yes, this is the mystery restaurant but we don't open for another three hours. no, i cannot take an order. because i have no one to deliver food. let me take care of this. hell

before you start, what do you do? stop, look, listen and think. any time you pull up to an incident or you see something, you take a breath, assess the situation, use all your senses and think about what you are going to do. those are all components of what we call the size-up. there are many components to size up. what's one of the components to size up? gathering facts. you want to assess the type of damage there is. what kind of situation is it? what is the issue? is it a medical problem? if it's a medical, is it a big hurt or a little hurt? is it a rescue situation and if it's a fire, do you have the resources to control or extinguish that fire? how about your situation, do you have all your people? do you have all the resources that you need? have you collected all the material that you need if you are going to start doing a lifting exercise because someone is trapped? because you never start a rescue, you never start a lifting exercise, never start anything, unless you know you are going to be able to finish it, have enough of the resources

do you people have a staff? do you have a morgue? do you use the internet? how many candidates do you work on at once? i'm just intrigued, the two of you might be doing all of this stuff. it seems incredible. >> we do mainly do it ourselves. and we've enjoyed doing that. because it allows us to go to these places where people are from. in general, we start off on the internet and we build a foundation. and it gives us a road map. but as you know, the internet is notoriously unreliable. so, we have to go to where these people are from. and we go into their towns and we get the information we need and we're out before anybody really knows that we're there. however, the name of the book is "we're with nobody." and that came from two different, for two different reasons. number one, every time we go into a courthouse, we are raising red flags with a clerk or somebody who -- we're going to ask for tax records on an incumbent congressman. that's raising, you know, red flag right there. so the first question we always get is, who are you with? and our answer is, yo

that's coming. >> bill: why can't the mit people do that and start up company do that. >> they do it.y do it all the time. it's ridiculous and idea we are going to compete with china by throwing our tax dollars at a problem is obscenely ridiculous and immature and just silly season. that's silly season stuff. we are headed off a cliff and nobody apparently wants to talk about that they want to talk about, you know, the contraception thing or something about that. >> bill: green energy and things like that which is important by the way but not at the level of this. enter the republic candidates all four of them. so they basically they are going to live or die against president obama on the unemployment situation, which is at 83 now and they come next week with new numbers. if it goes down president obama say we are working. we are going to come back. bigger picture, more important picture is this. the mismanagement of the american treasury. >> you hit on it in the talking points memo. the long-term prospects for the country. whether our country really is going to survive as we know her

not be able to do the things you want us to do. that mean s bringing cases or slower bringing of cases and reviewing do you wants of businesses. when we are doing a merger review, it's the business s that can put us on the clock and we have to review, you know, tremendous numbers of documents in a second request, which it is where we are closely skrut nicing the deal -- skrut -- scutinizing the deal. we have to look at on average, 1.5 million documents. so, you know, again, we will work within the budget that the congress and the suggeb committ gives us but we are a productive agency and so, we are just, so i understand commissioner rush, i ha have great respect for him. if you want us to be as effective as we have been, and there's consensus that we have been effective, it will be tough to do it with a smaller budget. >> it's clear on both side aisl effective and take on new areas with that in minds, the last question that i had added to my binder. see, it's not even in the binder, even though it has holes in it is one that this c

how do i do what i need to do that is both efficient and effective? what drives me to do that? blue cross blue shield was my profile as well as every other insurer and oklahoma. they know i am an efficient physician. they have a profile -- every insurance company in this country knows everything about every dr.'s purchasing. one thing that is happening to medicare patience because doctors are opting out, the people who are not opting out of medicare are not the best physicians. the one that are opting out are the ones that do not need medicare patience. market forces should reward doctors who are efficient and get there. who knows that? medicare knows it too, but as long as you qualify for medicare you are going to get paid. there is no market force on the quality of physician. if i am way outside the you know what happens next year? they do not want me. they do not allow their patience to come see me. i am not an efficient or effective doctor. that is one of the things that is really positive. i have another story. i do not have time to go into it. we resisted an insurance com

what do you do?he civilian providers to start out with asking the person what their military occupational specialty, mos, is and find out about their background. most soldiers -- all service members are very proud of what they have done and their career. start out by asking them where they went to basic trainee and where have they served. after you have developed a report, then you may want to ask about the signs and symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder, a dramatic break injury, and psychological effects of war. -- traumatic brain injury, and psychological effects of war. there is real experiencing what happens, flashbacks, and interests of thought. numbness, and not wanting to connect to people around you and then there is hyper vigilance or being in a lurch. looking around you to see if there is an ied or a bomb on the side of the road. those are the clusters of symptoms. you also have -- these last for a while and cause a problem and social functioning or work. host: according to the arm for

what do you do. you're not preparing for anything.m it brings into a question of consciousness you have and gets to kind of the essence of how, where you direct your thoughts, what's important to you. >> good-bye, making amends. you said that a couple times. that strong. >> saying good-bye and making amends 123450eu678. >> rose: saying good-bye because it's coming to an end. >> one of the things, with this convention everybody has been living with us long enough that they more or less accept it in the sense over it's not a deep love feeling, they have got strategies with how to live it out. but no longer are they questioning. there is some guilt and some, you know, reflection on how they arrived but there's no real science to it or that kind of thing. >> rose: there it is. >> and then also you start to realize certain things that you care about that are so important like money and possessions and all that. you cut right through. >> you can't take them with you. >> there's a lot of good jokes. >> rose: there's the old notion that nobod

what do we have to do to change it? we have got to redo the system, we elect obama, get some appointments for the supreme court during his term, and all we need is one of the people voted yes to not be on the court and have someone vote with an open mind. anyone with an open mind will vote to overturn that. tavis: there was someone i talked to is on the right, and you are on the left, but there are some that believe that the only thing we need to do to change this, i just want to be convinced that a guy who has done 180 degrees on this, hypocritical frankly on this issue, will get serious about it once he gets reelected, and i do not know that i believe that. i want to believe that, but know why i should put >> that is very fair. the only thing to overturn citizens united. but it is not sufficient. and i do worry tremendously that anyone who uses the system to get elected usually does not want to change it right away. i am a co-chair of the obama campaign. the economy and warned me and said they are not going to do this

we have to do a better job. it doesn't work the way we are doing. >> how do you know that?ac, the private sector might pay more, but the fact is, the government costs more. it is not necessarily the pay scale that the government is, it is all of the bureaucratic express that makes it cost more. >> i hear what you are saying and whether it will make us safer and more efficient screening process versus the government paid burrcrat that are basically wanting to be unionized. it is working in montana and other parts of the country. and even though they privatize the screeners homeland security can reject that move to privatize. you will get government regulated anyway. and so why try it? >> victoria, what do you think? >> i have to agree with rick. i generally hate to do that. >> and it doesn't feel that. i am sorry, rick. it is the process, right. if you took private workers in here and you are not fixing the problem and i don't see how you do that and it is worse now that we are forcing people to check bags. everyone is carrying as much as they can on the plane and that makes

when you do these things, the first thing you do is figure out the ten most obvious things to do, and then you do them and look at them and then reject them. but it's -- that's the normal process for guys like us. >> does that include -- you talked earlier about other memorials. is there a particular memorial that you think is good? >> lincoln. >> absolutely. lincoln, washington. >> and maya lin. >> oh, beautiful. that's great. >> she was my student, so i'm proud. >> that's right. [ laughter ] >> that's right. >> she was a good one. >> is that the end of the slides? >> i don't know. that's the dure. so you can see where tomas got it. he was very clever to do that. there's the more intense part at the bottom, which is still transparent. you can still see through it. and this is the conundrum representative, the man as president ran -- >> here's the homecoming speech. >> yeah. >> so it's here. >> can you all read it? >> because no man is really a man who has left out of himself all of the boy. i wanted to speak first of the dreams of a barefoot boy, always in his dreams is the day when

i do not remember the question. >> i do not either. i think we're getting close to the time where we're going to take questions from anyone who wants to get up and ask them. line up at the microphone. in the meantime, i was wondering -- actually, someone in the audience was wondering. alan -- >> yes? >> what don't we know about billy crystal and/or larry david that you want to share with the international radio audience? which can probably be picked up in l.a. billy is like my closest friend. he and larry are both my buddies. larry david, when we all started out, we used to sit back in the back of the improvisation or whatever club we were in it just to watch larry. he was the comedian's comedian. back then he had hair like larry from the three stooges. he had wire rim glasses. he would get on a stage on a friday night at the improv. the crowd was predominantly suburban predominantly wouldblue hair. a pure suburban crowd. larry would get up. he will look at them and the first words out of his mouth -- you know, i feel very comfortable
