it's next to the bay bridge and third was 45 lansing. when you add these together which is high end view condos, they took a feeder which is not acceptable. because rincon hill has horrible transit and it doesn't have any affordable housing. so what are we doing for affordable housing and transit in the most explosive areas. i think we need a little bit of context and two of the other top five were for the industry. >> thank you. is there any additional public comment? seeing none, public comment is closed. >> commissioner antonini? >> i have a few questions regarding the report. when you talk about the increase in 4.5 increase in the amount of the fees, was for calendar year 2014 is that what it would be? >> that's correct. the way the legislation sets up all the fees they are updated annually and the committee establishes the index and captures the increase in cost. if it cost a certain amount for the previous year. second, you excluded the transit center and why was that not presented today. >> there will be a later report and hopeful

the next 20 years, but that is well short of what the bankrupt city owes and we are standing by in lansingcapitol of the state with more on the governor's plan, bc? >> hi there john. governor rick snyder drafted a settlement proposal with several lawmakers and calls for boosting detroit pensions and at the same time protecting assets within the detroit institute of arts. right now it calls also for $350 million being invested into that fund. and basically protect the interests of these retirees and dia as i mentioned. many people are asking where is this funding coming from and not from the state's general fund if approved and it will come from a tobacco settlement and governor rick snyder addressed the media and said it's not a government bail out and said if the settlement is approved and goes through it will quickly and move the bankruptcy process along more faster. take a listen. >> this is a settlement. this is not a bail out. i want to be very, very clear about that. this is not a bail out of paying debts directly of the city of detroit. this is not a city of bail out for detroit's d

freezing cold in lansing. low 40s, and 30s elsewhere with 57 in san francisco, the low spot.ook at the areas on of low pressure the high is dominating and it's creating a split flow, whenever you have that, you just do not have strong storms. they go around the high pressure, that means they are going around us. tomorrow though, the winds will shift on shore with the passing low areas of low pressure. you can see temperatures dropping for the cool spot. and i'm being conservative on the temperatures. they could be up near 70 by friday with the offshore flow and a possibility of a high fire danger. notice the seven days are dry. hope you have a great day. back to you eric. >> thank you. the star of abc the bachelor is apologizing to the gay community for his controversial remarks. the 32-year-old single father and former soccer player said, he will meet with glad in person this week. he is facing criticism after telling the online sight, the tv page that he did think a gay bachelor would set a good example for kids. >> to me the show would be too strong. too hard to watch on t

. >>> big game in east lansing. >> show us. >> tom izzo and michigan state taking on ohio state, thes came in undefeated. aaron craft trying to keep them that way. misses, emir williams, gets the putback. 20-3 run to erase a 17-point deficit. so the buckeyes in the second half, they couldn't get that shot to go, though. that could have won it. instead they go to overtime. 30 seconds to go, 66 apiece. keith appling, 20 points. michigan state hangs on. ohio state with its first loss of the season. >> you know, the warriors are trying to finish the season undefeated. we're not even to the all-star break. they're in milwaukee where david lee went 9 for 9 -- made his first nine shots. 22 points, 18 rebounds. not a warrior highlight without steph curry, circus shot, good. he had 15 points. warriors win 101-80. that is their tenth straight win. >> so you're saying they're on a roll. >> i am. you know what else is on a roll, my hair, seriously. it looks good. >> well, one important detail apparently got lost in the excitement over florida state's national championship in football. we know th

john will join me on the phone from lansing, michigan, who is a conservati conservationist. and tell me your thoughts about what is happening here? >> well, it is a contradiction of perseverance. no way to honor preserving something by killing it. >> well, two points of interest, because coming out of namimbia says that hunting is not taken lightly and only geriatric bulls and do not contribute to the population are trophy hunted. >> well, it is a mixed message if you are going to conserve or, you know, if you are going to kill off, and when you take, and when you take that stance, you are, you're creating a controversial stance that contradicts itself. so really, what it comes down to is that you can't have it both ways in terms of the conservation. i would challenge the dallas safari club to only auction off that license to someone who promises not the use it. that would be a wiser way to raise this awareness that there is a potential to kill a rhino through the licenses issued by the namimbian government, but it is not a step that is taken. >> and so i guess that there is

the economy was there were a lot of editors a lot of book designers that were out of work and free lansing a lot, and so as a result these little cottage industries started to spread, from 2009 until now the number of companies that have started because of self-publishing, to me, is really amazing. the growth of these sort of -- just many companies now going to be bigger companies and companies that are now like middle men that help authors design which book designer to use and editor to use. so a lot of people -- a lot of traditional people who lost their jobs in the economic turndown, found new life with self-publishing because now they are catering to that segment of the industry and it's growing, and they have a need. >> according to an 2013 report, 391,000 self-published titles were created in 2012. 40% of which were electronic books. the number of self-published titles jumped 422% between 2007 and 2012. industry leaders include create space, which had a greater than 3,000% increase in titles over a five-year period. smash words, which has become number two in the industry in four yea

to campaign for barry goldwater in three years later i was getting tear gas in the streets of east lansing that. i was there in barry goldwater famously said it was very clear about it you don't have to be straight to shoot straight i mean he was my dad was that was the republican party used to be a tolerant party i mean maybe they were in favor of gay marriage or something but they weren't then the self happened they were embracing duck dynasty. i don't get it well as the gay guy on the panel i'd like to say that it's nice to see jimmy come around i would say that one correction for you they would go proud wasn't so much a conservative group pushing you know as they were a gay group pushing a conservative agenda this is a group that surrounded itself with the likes of ann coulters and indorsed bigots who are anti-gay so it's nice to see jimi finally coming to his senses i think it has more to do with jimmy's pocketbook than it does with with the politics ahead the party has been just as anti-gay today as it was when he started go proud it's not like all of the sudden oh but when he was sa

any other figure that was with them on their daily fishing outings was robert lansing who is also a curious state and he was secretary of state during world war i. and so you have these figures who themselves embody the idea of america, at least as they understood it. and they transferred to the dulles brothers, not just the ideals, and the beliefs, but the vocabulary and the perceptions. the grandfather, as they called him, he was so infatuated with his grandson and he thought it was not enough to spend summers with them. he wanted to bring them down to washington dc to live with them for some months during the winter. and they spent a number of the winters at the foster mansion next to the dupont circle. and here they were having dinner every night with william taft, woodrow wilson, andrew carnegie, and all of these were their dinner partners than they were 10 years old. and so of course they did not participate in the dinner conversation. but they absorb so much during those long evenings. this was part of their training to join the american elite. in fact, i discovered that allen dulles
