he's pointing to the plans of the hyde park. he was quite a passable architect. once he became president, he was able to build a lot more. even though henry loose was generally opposed to roosevelt. we ran a double page on his to show how the work he had done. i couldn't get it all on my standards. in the west, you would see without the new deal projects, the republican voting sun belt cities wouldn't exist. they were built at that time. so, it's as i say. there was at least a dozen agencies that left remnants. i am going to give you a primer on all of these. the premise was to put people to work. there were agencies that covered all of these. the land had been ruinned by a variety of things. this is one of the posters and these are archival photographs. this shows the ccc boys. many of them had been riding the rails. they were starving. they were illiterate. here they are in one of the camps, which were run by the army and it was like a military organization. they were out in the wilderness. you could leave if you wanted to. this was a civilian conservation core

yep >> so our last couple of agenda item commissioners, comments or questions commissioner hyde. >> so i just wanted to say that today audrey and i did our follow-up at club malibu and they're definitely working on things and we'll see results with that. i think we're aisle problems and mr. dick is really good for them and it will be much better. saturday night because we've been depreciating complaints from neighborhood from 1015 over the halloween that weekend i went by at the 11, 12 and 2 and watched how they dispersed the crowd. they do a really good job and the problems were purely halloween. i just wanted to say i did that on saturday night. and i think a that's it. >> great commissioner joseph. >> processed for submissions for the main stage pride is now open. you know a great local band or someone that might want to submit and possibly be chosen to perform at the san francisco provide the date is sunday, saturday june 28th and sunday june 29th. great any other comments or questions from commissioners >> yeah. i wanted to make sure that all people get the outreach guidelines. i

justin hyde is managing editor of yahoo! autos.e about the news day, transportation along the east coast especially. an estimated 40 million people hitting the roads. gas prices relatively stable. about $3.29 a gallon. what can we expect today on the weekend? guest: at the moment the forecast is gas prices to remain low to moderate for the remainder of the year. that decline in gas prices has caused a difference in buying from what we have seen in years past. americans are still tending to choose medium to larger sized vehicles over hybrids or more fuel-efficient cars. there is healthy sales are compact and fuel-efficient vehicles, but those sales seem to have hit a bit of a slowdown. families tend to choose things like five-passenger suv's one of the most booming section of the market. and it cuts -- all three of the detroit automakers are putting pick up strongly and expect good sales through the year as well as 2014. host: let's talk about the auto industry and the bailout five years since it was put in place. i want to put up s

but to the native people, the exchange of goods was more akin to gift-giving, says writer lewis hyde.in the european sense something that's given to me becomes mine and it's as if it's contained in my ego i have complete control over it. in the gift exchange sense, it's not yours; you are the steward of something which is just passing through you. >> reporter: 30 years ago, hyde began a book that's become something of a classic: the gift, with the origin of a pejorative he'd learned as a kid: indian giver. >> it meant that you have given the gift to somebody and then you wanted to get it back so you're not really generous, but it seemed to me that this was probably not the original meaning of the word. so i found the first use of it, which turns out to be in thomas hutchinson's book about the early colonies in the united states. so actually what's being described is gifts which are given have to be returned in some way. so the first winter in plymouth was horrific. half of the company dies in two and a half months. >> reporter: the remaining 53 celebrated a good harvest with a feast.
