this is something that we have done today after katrina. it is something you can do now as well in the event a disaster does strike. again, i told you about other things, the ride share program we have created now. it's aiding residents to get out. as i mentioned there is no place of last resort. again, it's the neighbors who are responsible for one another. we have residents can sign up to take an elderly out. we can take kids out or whom ever needs a ride, pets, things like that. a lot of people in broadmoore and in the city of new orleans because of their pets. pets are our family. i had a beshon that went with me and i wouldn't leave him or plan to in the future. tailor the information to the residents that live within your community and give them the information that they need to make sure they survive. and that we continue to help one another. it's all about what we can do not only for ourselves but for our communities. in closing, i want to leave you with some additional points that i have made throughout the presentation. just it's

the third thing srb sorry -- again, the cost of katrina katrina and iraq. the sequence of those events and crisis really undermind what was politically a very successful presidency in that first term. >> host: not to be craft, but could president bush sat on 9/11 for eight years? i mean, politically? >> guest: well, obviously, i don't think he could. he had 90% approval ratings, and then a month after and but as 2004 got closer into the 2002 election which president bush did well and republicans had a retake over the senate, but you could see partisanship was increasing on both sides and 9/11 was not going to hold you politically the whole time. >> host: houston, go ahead, debra. >> caller: hi. >> host: hi. >> caller: i just want to first start by saying that president george bush to me was a man of -- and full of courage, and i thank you for that. let's see -- i'm just wondering if anyone realized that during the time he was running for president, he was -- our country was being threatened for war that we were going into war if he became president by other

we don't have trials like what happened with katrina. so many of you that have been sparks of hope and imagination, people that are engaged we have someone that will talk about how she has sparked the imagination and engagement of a city that was ready to abandon, not just her but the entire broadmoore community. in fact, the mayor who is a friend, this is not a critique, put together after the challenges in katrina, put together a diverse group of what we say the best and the brightest. came up with a bad idea. we don't always get it right. they said broadmoore had been wiped out. they said, it ain't worth bringing back. we are going to make it open space. and the speaker i will introduce in a moment she like many of you said, wait that's my community. that's my neighborhood. you made that decision without us in mind. the community was forced to leave. they were not part of this discussion. and she said, like so many of you said to me and others, no that's not the way it's going to be. she stepped up and stepped in and she was heard. an

we have a lot of people coming here after hurricane katrina. we all have to come together and so many different agencies come in, and they will connect to the data base together. and we have all these different private partners. we are trying to set things up at st. mary's. as if this was a project can act. we have the intake process, and we knew how to deliberately organized. and this is an important discipline. this is almost an exercise in and of itself. >> i would like to say that under your watch, what has been impressive is the emphasis on activating the service center. they have been invaluable, and indispensable. i think that this will play on having people compare themselves beyond 72 hours. this makes us more confident in the ability to weather whatever happens as long as we're able to take on the town, and the quality of activating, in a gratitude kind of way, and organized response by the citizenry, and this is something that you could be very proud of. >> going back to what he said about the intake process, they are really focusing

how did you -- did you get involved during katrina?trina. i was aware of it, because i had seen it, and i was -- tim and i were involved in things down there, because we're from that area. and i thought it was just so smart and practical. and as a mom -- i have three daughters -- tim and i have three daughters -- washing is just part of your life. >> jimmy: it is kind of, yeah. i like doing it. it's kind of like therapy for me. i'm an awful folder, but -- [ light laughter ] >> i stink at folding. >> jimmy: i wash, i dry and then i just throw it in piles. >> how do you fold your t-shirts. do you hold them and flip them over like this and then -- we should have an example of this. >> paul: the collared shirts are hard for me. >> collared shirts? >> paul: you heard me, collared shirts. [ laughter ] i never know how to get the collar done. then it's folded. then it'll be wrinkled. the collar. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: i got a job once -- >> this is great. >> jimmy: i got a job once at abercrombie & fitch. i really did get a job once, because

recuerdan el huracÁn katrina que destruyÓ casi toda la ciudad de nueva orleans?ssissippi. y ¿sabe quiÉn ayudÓ a reconstruir mississippi y louisiana? los hispanos. muchos de ellos indocumentados. esos mismos indocumentados que fueron a reconstruir a mississippi, ahora quieren sacarlos de esa Área. angie sandoval estuvo en mississippi justo despuÉs del huracÁn katrina, y ella hablÓ con muchÍsimas personas que han dejado sudor, lÁgrimas y su trabajo en ese estado, y ahora son el blanco de estos ataques. angie, buenos dÍas. >>¿quÉ tal, jose? muy buenos dÍas. justo cuando muchos en este paÍs, despuÉs de la sb 1070 de arizona pensaron que esta ola antiimigrante habÍa mermado, ha nacido un proyecto de ley nuevo, Éste, en mississippi. pero igual que en arizona, los hispanos en mississippi no se han quedado con los brazos cruzados. todos: ¡el pueblo unido jamÁs sera vencido! angie: esta semana, grupos pro inmigrantes protestaron afuera del capitolio en jackson la posible aprobaciÓn de este proyecto de ley. los presentes denunciaron que los hispanos pudieran ser vÍctima de

i saw this firsthand, i went down to help out with katrina thing in september. it's weird. because you are dealing with people that lost everything and it's kind of hard to imagine that if you haven't done it yourself. basically, you know, she's looking at her curtains here, she probably hand-stitched those things. maybe they have been hanging there the last 5 or 6 years. everything in the house is wrecked, photos, keepsakes, it's a tough thing. and people deal with this kind of stress in different ways. we as disaster workers, we see it all the time. but we have a word we use, professional. we try to be professional around people that have suffered a loss like this because they don't want us to come -- you don't want to go into somebody's house and be joking and having a good time. it's unprofessional. when you are dealing with somebody who has a loss like this, just think of the word professional. that's what we try to do. this sort of body language here, she's trying to comfort here, do you think she's buying it? not with that body language. she's not really buying it. s

personally, the plan came into affect during katrina. my family is from new orleans. they were born and educated there. my grandparents are buried there and my sisters lived there. my sister did not evacuate until the last minute. she didn't voluntary evacuation and got stuck in a traffic jam and her car ran out of gas and had 2 kids in the back and was scared to death after that. when they said hurricane warning she was gone. she would pack up the kid in the car and the dog heading to dallas, texas where we have relatives and did that every time. there were times she would get 75 miles out of town and they would say, turn around come on home. and they said cheryl stay come to our hurricane party. they always say new orleans will flood. she said. i was wrong this time but i only need to be right, once. when they called the voluntary evacuation with katrina and when the levies broke we knew she was safe. she had her disaster kit and family. the only one missing was the nephew. he knew his out of state contact and knew where his family was and knew how to get there much

are we building another katrina in the delta and are we doing so that increases the delta failure that has profound water shortage implications and we have them claiming yes climate change is real, yes, it has implications, but, no, they would not evaluate them. so being the reasonable people we are, we sued them. but we think it require as real analysis especially when agencies are making long-term issues with profound effects for public safety and we hope the courts resolve that rapidly and the legislature can do that as well. >> as far as regional exercises, i think i'm all for it. they do have their limitations but the way to improve these models and to understand their capabilities is to use them and try to confirm that they work on big events that we actually have observed, and so you know, typically, we look retrospective simulations and try to introduce as much independence in the tests that are used, in order to gain confidence that the models work in future situations. i'm not familiar with the environmental quality act or activity that you mentioned but i think it's worth di

>> as we discovered in katrina the out of area contacts are important for communication. because no one you couldn't call a new orleans area code it was not happening. he was able to reach myself in california and our aunt in dallas,texas on a land line. how many know their relatives phone numbers. i'm not meaning picking up your cell phone and clicking, mom. the red cross has a wallet card there is your emergency contact plan where you write down a land line number. we're discovering that text mess anning and e mails work. having the information in your son's back pack or your purse or the car in multiple places so you community with your out of state contact and through that you coordinate your reunionification. >> you have to speak into the microphone. >> it says all the communications will probably be down. >> on your pile of rubble that's your house there is no reason why you can't put a note saying this is where the family is. when you listen to the radios and the radios tell you where the shelters the first thing we set up is communications. you can go there and ge

the amazing new spy plane that could also help in disasters like 9/11 or hurricane katrina. we're going to tell you how. >>> we're also going to confront the quack doctor who endangered the life of this adorable little girl. >>> and he holds the record for the most world records. but these are not events you're likely to see at the olympics. nobody in my family ever had a heart attack. if anything, i thought i'd get hit by a bus, but not a heart. my doctor put me on an aspirin regimen to help protect my life. [ male announcer ] be sure to talk to your doctor before you begin an aspirin regimen. check with your doctor because it can happen to anybody. how are those flat rate boxes working out? fabulous! they gave me this great idea. yea? we mail documents all over the country, so, what if there were priority mail flat rate... envelopes? yes! you could ship to any state... for a low flat rate? yes! a really low flat rate. like $4.95? yes! and it could look like a flat rate box... only flatter? like this? you...me...genius. genius. priority mail flat rate envelopes. just $4.95.

during hurricane katrina -- and i ought to preface this by saying katrina was about four years beforeluded in our work in katrina was an enormous financial aid package where we were supplementing the work that fema had done. we took the outpouring of donations and gave money to the victims that were impacted. and we did it with debit cards, and we were able to transfer the donations directly to the people there. so that was one effort. the other thing is this is, katrina happened in the u.s. people could get on buses, they could leave the city. i read somewhere that only 60% of people returned to new orleans. they could get on buses, they could move in with relatives, they could get jobs. so in a lot of ways it was easier to get relief done quickly because there wasn't that same long recovery effort. you just walk around haiti, and you see that recovery has to be a huge part of our donations. or else there'll be nothing to show for it. so here we're or planning recovery operations, and as i said in my speech, this isn't to rebuild haiti, this is to build parts of haiti up for the very

>> best underdog coming out on top, the new orleans saints from a city still staggering back from katrinaper bowl for the first time in team history and winning. who dat? we dat. >> the new orleans saints win was the feel-good story of the year. >> when they won, you could hear the shouts from every single house. it was astonishing. >> that was amazing. for new orleans, it was an incredible moment. >> i'm not a huge football fan, but i wanted to see new orleans have this win. >> i think it could be one of the top moments in sports history for what the championship meant to this one particular town. >> best athlete role model of the year, because he signed with the saints in the wake of katrina and stayed, joining his teammates in countless projects to help the city rebuild, quarterback drew brees. >> drew brees is a god among men. >> the moment that really touched my heart is when drew brees is holding his little son. >> amazing. still gives me goose bumps to think about it. >>> ben roethlisberger and bret favre both caught up in accusation of improper sexual conduct, denied by both. >> a

with 9- 11, hurricane katrina, you have to take care of yourself because we're not going to be there. apply the nert perspectives to any suspected terrorism. we're going to use the term be nice. we're part of -- the president asked americans to volunteer to help improve your own community. you are doing that now. you are part of the umbrella called citizens corps. what's the objective? for you, it's to prepare for natural disasters, especially if you live here in san francisco, the earthquakes. form an exercise, neighborhood and workplace teams. is that what you're do ?g we did a little practice right now. you are going to respond to immediate needs in your area following a major disaster. what about here in san francisco, major metropolitan area. what are some possible areas in the city? golden gate bridge, right here. beautiful sunset today, i was watching it as we got here. what else? the bay bridge, candlestick, monster park, 42,000 will be in attendance on any sold out giants game, 62,000 on a 49er game. what else? b of a building. transamerica. this is a major -- so these are --

>>>josé: quizás el indocumentado ayudó a reconstruir su estado luego de katrina, vanessa hablamos delido hablar con él?. >>>vanessa: la verdad josé lo hemos llamado 20 veces hemos enviado una infinidad de e-mail solicitando una entrevista con él pero ni el gobernador ni algunos miembross del equipo han respondido a nuestras llamadas. pese que seguimos paso a paso los procedimientos que nos indicó su oficina de prensa, conseguir una entrevista con el gobernador del estado fue una misión imposible. >>>vanessa: después de varios e-mail y más de 20 llamas fuimos al capitolio estatal donde se encuentran sus oficinas. pero cuando preguntamos por él, nos dijeron que teníamos eque seguir llamando a su oficina de prensa donde nunca nos contestaron. si la cámara de representantes a prueba la s b 2179 será el gobernador saliente barber quién decidirá con su firma si se convierte en ley o no, barber está apoyado por el partido tea party en sus intervenciones es defensor del gobernador de arizona jan brewer y su controvertida 1070 pero él reconoz reconoció que los hispanos dijo no sabemos qué hace

after hurricane katrina we participate 5 days. for work a lot of work places have supplies. make sure they do. if they don't keep one for yourself and may be your coworkers. a first aid kit a flashlight any pair of shoes in case you are driving you have to get out. water. how much water do you need for 72 hours? if you use the hot water heater you have to turn off the gas. if you don't stop the gas it will light up and cause a little explosion or fire. vegetables. the back of the tank you go up and treat water with bleach. but remember, it should be a fresh pot of bleach. once you open bleach it looses the effectiveness of the bleach. one capful for a gallon of water. wait 20 minutes. wash your hands. wait a half-hour, to drink it, tastes like pool water but it kills germs. >> what kind of food do you want to keep? open the fridge don't open it too much. eat all perishable food first. you want to save emergency supplies. what emergency supply food do you want to /kaoepl. keep? energy bars. dry food. canned vegetables. can corn, can peas, you can drain that and drink the wate

never mind hurricane "katrina."rnia waterway that one local expert says is poised for disaster bigger than hurricane "katrina" or the exxon valdez. >> i'm terry mcsweeney live in patterson. in a few hours divers will resume their search for the bodies of the man and the four-year-old boy he kidnapped. mary! hey! wow, you look great! thanks! it's this new wish yourself thin program. i just wish it and it happens. it's probably those fiber one bars you're eating. i know they help me stick to my diet. the bars are 90 calories and the fiber helps you feel full. 90 calories and high fiber. so that's why this diet thing is working. but it's weird because my wish for lorenzo came true. [ male announcer ] fiber one 90 calorie bars. hungry no. results yes.

or we could have a katrina type event when it hits. if we don't invest in levies and improve meant on the water supply can in fact be the cork in the bottle when the global warming raises the sea level. i listened to a professor the other day that's chair to one of the groups that talked about what levy groups ought to be. the levies on the west side are not worth saving because their big islands and i raised my hand and i said so the delta will become salt water and what are you going to say to the species and the people that live there because that's salt water. we can't all go into silos. those are levies for water quality. we have to integrate and adopt. lesters program. everybody talks about robust and adaptive. i will tell you the programs we invest in, we'll get fired if we under invest the point of the matter is we have to invest in something. we filled our first waste water plant. you build one that sat there waiting for the population you would get fired and that thes terminology we have to use. we invest the things to day th

imagine new orleans if they have the system during hurricane katrina. this is extraordinarily valuable. and you can see the difference spanish components. 92 exercises and parts of the training, and all these different agencies are returning. i am proud of that. let me look at those sunglasses. this had the seal? >> the little party -- >> that was fun. >> that is secret. we can't talk about this. >> i am proud of 72hours.org. other states were taking our example, and there is nothing that is more valuable than doing your own emergency plan. when your wife or husband is at work, where will you be a couple of hours later when the system is not working. you can put all of this together. we're using the new social media, and these brochures are fabulous. this is great and it shows where there is a water main that is exposed. i think that everyone should sign up for this. and we have the work that we did in public housing. if there is something more that needs to be done, this is that. thank you so much for doing what you have done. we have to have more outr

theres the new model that the insurance industry wants to use and they've all been modified since- katrina and they have three models but they have now revised their catastrophe model to incorporate climate science and of course, insurance companies want to be able to go by those models and i'm wondering if such practical tools are being developed for water management. >> well, the short answer is absolutely, yes. the longer answer is that from my perspective, many of the bigger models that drive our smaller models don't do a lot of things right. they don't do summer precipitation right, in fact they don't do precipitation at all. a lot of this - i hope it brings down to something reasonable. dave is working with colorado springs utilities and others including at least one here in california the short answer is absolute . but are they great? no. but we have to start using them. >> we typically rely on models we get to create in terms of what we think demand and that drives what we build and design things. we have taken into perspective climate change but it's a different challenge in the w

. >>> it now appears thousands of victims of hurricane katrina were exposed to potentially dangerous fumes in fema emergency shelters and now a judge must aapprove a -- aapprove a multimillion-dollar settlement. government tests found travel trailers used at fema emergency shelters during hurricane katrina had a higher level of formaldehyde than mobile homes. the companies that manufacture those homes have now agreed to pay $2.6 million to resolve thousands of claims. >>> the investigation continues into a strange death in the south bay. earlier this week a man was found dead in a san jose home that was being fumigated. authorities have identified that man as 45-year-old julio martinez gonzalez. it is unclear why gonzalez entered that house which was covered with a tent and had signs warning of dangerous fumes. >>> drivers are getting free parking right in front of san francisco's hall of justice. ktvu news has learned it is all due to a dispute over who should be writing out the citations. the sfmta says it is the police department's responsibility, but police say they share that jo
