when it was created by hava, the e.a.c. was a small agency authorized for three years, to spend up to $10 million per year . that was nine years ago. the agency is still there and its last full time full year appropriation was for almost $18 million. since a staff ceiling was removed in 2007, the agency has doubled its size and this doubling came despite the fact that many of the e.a.c.'s responsibilities were completed or diminished. the average salary at the e.a.c. is over $100,000. it has an executive director, a chief operating officer, a chief financial officer and an accounting director. in its budget request for 2012 the e.a.c. proposed to spend $51.-- 51.7% of its budget on management and administration costs. mr. speaker, that bears repeating. the e.a.c. planned to spend more than half of its budget on overhead. an agency a with that plan is an agency that -- an agency with that plan is an agency that should be eliminated. the need to eliminate the e.a.c. is so great that the national association of secretaries of

that tells you you hava shut off. like that gas circle thing, if you see that thing in a sidewalk and you are standing in the street and you have that in front of you and look directly at the house you will find the gas shut off. same with the water. if you have the water thing in front of you and look directly at the house. 9 times out of 10 on the floor you will find the main water shut off, here. a lot of places have the sprinklers if you shut off the main in the street you shut off the fire systems. so, if you have a choice of shutting off the water in somebody's house go for the one that coming between the foundation, usually it's in the garage or basement. you turn it to the right. right to tighten, left to loosen. this is easier to turn on and off if you is get in the garage. if you can't use the one in the street. do it only if it's say safe to do so. if it's dangerous, leave it. >> this is a basic electric system. a switch and the screw in fuses. there are not many of these anymore. most have the breakers. ok

[ laughter ] >> because i'm the only one who dares say this which is what's your least favorite barry manilow song? >> do you really think i'm going to tell you that? >> yes. yes. because i've beguiled you into a sense of safety and you're ready to confess. >> you are beguiling. >> what is the song that you literally can't hear anymore? >> i would never answer that question!

plus, a 3-month-old baby is shot and killed after a babywe hava r we have a live report, coming up. coming up on today in the bay, police find a body hidden behind bushes in sunnyvale. the latest on the investigation is next. >> reporter: good morning, i'm christie smith. the family of a missing nursing student want a change in the investigation. what they are calling for, coming up in a live report. >> reporter: live in east palo alto, an infant baby boy is shot and killed. who authorities believe is responsible. >>> live look outside alcatraz island. a lot of folks, triathletes made the swim. it's monday, june 6th, today in the bay. >>> good morning to you. thanks for joining us. it's 6:30 now. i'm laura garcia-cannon. let's check the forecast with christina loren. the weather didn't keep the triathletes away this weekend. >> hey, not a lot does. we have a few light showers passing through. at the current time, a lot of activity subsided. you are getting a bit of a break now, if you are someone hitting the highways. mondays can be tough. how tough? >> the rain -- i totally made th

the reason i say that is i think we're going to hava difficult time doing any of these other missions unless we have suppression, and the -- i was just over there and we were told by the navy that the allies do not have enough suppression to deal with continuing to do these bombing missions without u.s. help. if we could clarify -- mr. mckeon: you just about used up my whole minute. there are -- my good friend from washington, there are a lot of things that would make me feel better. ife could go back and start this whole thing over, there are a lot of things that would make me feel better, but the president has said we are not engaged in hostilities. i think we would agree that when we're firing missiles, when we are having -- 30 seconds? missions with our fighter planes suppressing ground fire, i believe that would be -- most of us would agree that is hoile. and the nato people, we met with the military from great britain, they told us what we have in here would allow them to continue successfully their missions. so i would -- the speaker pro tempore: the time of the gentleman from

um, that were behind setting up the agency in the first place, the concerns that were addressed at hava. >> my name's jan chastain. i have two questions. the first one, i don't know if you'll answer it, but are there any members of of the fec who are actually against the fec that you feel working with them they're actually there just because they're against the fec and that's why they were appointed, number one. the second one is in the light of the, in the light of the situation we find ourself with the strategic computer voting scams across the nation and on the rise, i sometimes feel that the election, that citizens united and all these things in talking about disclosure and election spending, it's almost as if they've distracted us with all of that, and it's quite complex. and they've just stolen the eggs out of the hen house. and i lived in a county that in 2004 we were 18 points off the exit polls on the presidential election, and it threw my state. and that was nevada, wash shaw county. and would you ever recommend that we follow what germany has done which the german high court,

. >> we just hava few minutes. >> i really hear you.nd this is funny because i came from a family of seven children. i am the oldest. i immigrat to america 40 years ago. one of my brothers died in 1973. and i went there and i can imagine the face of my father. my other brother is a higher key minister. and my sister is one of the leaders of the women's muslim brotherhood. what kind of family and really makes you wonder? thanks to mom and dad because they brought us our life to make ourselves free. that's why we have supplied my household. but to answer your question, the mistake is not the united states government. the mistakes that corrupt people from its own is more corrupted and allow them to come into our homes. each country has its own strategy, israel has done strategy, united states, korea, china, saudi arabia. but in this country, we are demonstrating the society and the refusal of some people within a society who destroy the society problem, that our own problem. we should rebuild our home to other countriefor saudi arabia coec

what happens -- republicans are intransigent, and go to your newspapers, hava quotation from john boehner -- "we cannot raise taxes." what happens if we default on our debt? nobody knows exactly, because it has never happened. but clearly, in a very fragile world economy, at a time when we are trying with not much success to improve our own economy, this will be a disaster, this will at the very least substantially raise interest rates, which will be very harmful to our economy. bottom line is that we cannot the fall in my view, and the bottom line to me is that republicans cannot be police and say if you don't give us everything -- cannot be bullies and say if you don't give us everything, we will not play. host: "obama demanded they stay in town to help with debt negotiations and found unlikely allies -- would you bwilling to go to your leader and say -- guest: tse are the things word they walked away from budget negotiations, are in today? mr. cantor and mr. kyl got up and walked out. what you're talking about is a lot of flimflam from a conservative newspaper. when the republican lead
