good morning, commissioners, president, and director kaufman. in december 2017, the department presented the supportive services and service connection program for older adults and adults with disabilities who are military veterans living in the city. i am pleased to report that the program has been very successful and swords to plow shares has been a fantastic partner in helping the department serve this population. last year, swords to plow share met the program objectives and competed the projected service for this grant. they are well on their way to doing the same this year. i'm going to provide a brief overview of the program. it is offered at swords to plow shares five supportive housing sites. it includes one-to-one assistance to veterans aimed at supporting their independence, and it provides scheduled activities that help foster friendships, reduce isolation, and build a sense of community. veteran's academy is one of the five sites and home to 108 former hoe homeless veterans with disabilities -- formerly homeless veterans with disabi

start talking about your own grandchildren, and i do want to mynowledge last week granddaughter bella kaufman quoram, and know way backher when that she would be an icon in the month of the woman, march, and america is a friend, , and anr, a democracy outlet for peace and security in the region and as i have often said, be founding of the state of the greatest political achievements of the 20th century. from israel's founding to be present day, our plans remains the same. israel and america are connected now and forever. we will never allow anyone to a wedge issue. is having on her and this congress where support for israel remains i and bipartisan. we are proud to have so many champions of israel, leaders and committee chairs. among them, some will be honored today, leader lowy on appropriation, adam schiff on andlligence, eliot engel, the chair of the subcommittee on , and john east yarmouth onvia are important budget committee, and more. these leaders understand the importance of the bond between america and israel, and they are working tirelessly to make those bonds even stronger. the u.s

but not every kaufman has an amusing story sometimes the coffin makers get choked up especially when it comes to children. it was a young child's musical instrument and then you know that the child is suddenly passed away and we didn't have very long to make. it it's quite sad. john vause has yet to make a conference for himself but he does have an idea in mind. if i could make one probably be a ferrari racing call i mean to ferrari's. but yeah maybe one day maybe one day i could make myself on the phone. but first martin brunch wyler was hesitant to tell his wife about his funeral plans but then he created an exhibition about his brewery and wanted to exhibit the confidence. my wife doesn't like it she thinks she thinks it's morbid she doesn't like to think about these things i like to think that when i do go they'll be a bit for everybody over friday with of those so i'll make sure that there's plenty of beer available but just think it's nice if we could. just make it is as easy going as possible he's made his final arrangements but martin hopes to be around for a long one here so

majority for one option or the other and not factually the favored position of the labor leader charlie kaufman who continues to be confident that he could win and the future election but all eyes now will turn to potentially friday and whether or not the speaker of the house will allow the prime minister to bring her back for a third time and as they say perhaps it will be time lucky for to resume a treason a has confirmed she will step down as u.k. prime minister once she has delivered the brags that downing street says she made the announcement at a closed door meeting with fellow conservative party m.p.'s are honest to see if you're going to has more. helvetica recent me having said that she would be willing to step down after her deal gets accepted and bracks it is sort of coming in to shape the way she had intended it all along and theresa may has been meeting with the nine hundred twenty two committee which is a parliamentary group of the conservative party at the house of commons where she has revealed that she would be ready to go after her deal is accepted i'm prepared to leave this j

i mean this is this is absolved from that perspective and then also this is also true for charlie kaufman there's a number of european leaders who would criticize the approach that there has not been across party approach to brecht's it and that germany carbon clearly hopes that there would be new and new elections and that he could grab power and so it is this deadlock in the political system that many in brussels blame for the mess they're now facing ok alex one thing the british m.p. say they want even less than three summits deal is no deal yet this is looking increasingly likely exactly two weeks today is the next brecht date and that is possibly as you say a no deal because that will happen unless two reason may come back brussels for an extension but there has to be a reason for that so as i said m.p.'s will be pushing forward their proposals on monday for a way forward and one of the ones that was fairly popular on wednesday when this when this happened previously was soft of bricks so keeping that whole of the u.k. in a customs union which would actually even please the d.p. thos
