. >> next john alex lowell with the fdr democratic club. >> thank you. i have drawn a proposal. may i lay it down to be displayed for all to see. i have had two 2 points of improvements in my mind. to have two curb rods that meet in the point where the current rod exist that is similar to the current long poles above the seats. that would be sufficient for people standing up right. in addition to that, item no. 2 would reflect the insertion of two vertical sealing to floor poles next to the designated green seats. so that would address the pull up poles, plus it would be sufficient for people who are short in height because of the medical condition to cord plays -- condominium plays or age. the three prongs that form a mesh at the same height from the long poles would be sufficient for people standing and not lead to a an obstruction. the point of need of training of emergency evacuation. has there been a trial run on evacuation of people in wheelchairs during fires or any other disaster on bart? there has not been. that needs to be engaged to ensure they are safe in an emergenc

not to mention you may have noticed in the newspaper covering the last few days, on large lowell heights property, ihop i don't have the number, many numbers of more magnitude of tax money potential. uc has reached an exclusive negotiating number with two local developers to go ahead and develop that property. and, so, laurel heights would put many order of magnitude more back on the tax roll and that's moving forward. we don't have a guarantee, but we have a lot of room for error. even if some of the properties didn't go back on the tax rolls, we have a lot of room before this would even come to an even deal. >> thank you very much. >> supervisor breed. >> thank you. thank you, supervisor yee, for your questions and pointing out the particular situation. i think one of the challenges i've had as a former redevelopment agency commissioner is oftentimes we talk about good faith. we talk about good faith in hiring. we talk about good faith in terms of development. we talk about good faith in terms of being a good neighbor. but, again, there are no guarantees. the reason why i didn't suppor

because, you know what brigadier general robert lowell said this week about how he was surprised that there wasn't -- there wasn't some kind of military response to try to help these guys who are under attack. >> so the rhodes e-mail was copied to jake sullivan, who was a hillary clinton aide at the state department, if i'm not mistaken, matt. and basically, this brings her into all of this -- the spin control at the time. even as now, of course, she's running for president. >> i think it's a really big problem for hillary going forward, paul. on september 11th, she attributed it to the video. she's on public, on video, on september 11th, september 12th and september 13th saying this was undoubtedly the result because of this islamic video. i think those public statements are going to be used against her if she runs for president. because her statements are so soft-soepg of what is going on. it sounds terrible. and so i think it's going to be a huge problem. >> but will it matter if the press corps doesn't care? let's face it, matt, most of the media says we don't care. >> i think it'

as a noble bard of yesterday, james russell lowell, eloquently stated, "once to every man and nationes a moment to decide in the strife of truth and falsehood, for the good or evil side. some great cause, god's new messiah offering each the bloom or blight, and the choice goes by forever twixt that darkness and the light. though the cause of evil prosper, yet tis truth alone is strong though her portions be the scaffold, and upon the throne be wrong yet that scaffold sways the future, and behind the dim . within thedeth shadows, keeping watch above his own. and if we will only make the right choice, we will be able to transform this pending cosmic elegy into a creative psalm of peace. if we will make the right choice, we will be able to transform the jangling discords of our world into a beautiful symphony of brotherhood. make the right choice, we will be able to speed up the day, all over america and all over the world, when justice will roll down like waters and righteousness like a mighty stream.

i'm surprised janet yellen will probably borrow that. >> jim lowell, how full is your glass? what's your allocation look like? how much of the portfolio is in stocks here? spl we have clients across the risk adjusted spectrum but the reality is i think heather is right. to be flat so far this year, given everything that's been thrown at the market, including all kinds of fears over pace of recovery to russia's invasion inside of ukraine. i think it is okay. i do think though that we'll see a 10% to 50% pullback at some point in time. maybe next week. maybe the trigger is when we get the revision to first quarter gdp which could go into negative territory, that could spook the market. any sell-off we've seen this year we've taken advantage of. whether u.s. growth, stocks, health care in particular. remaining very bullish. >> the russell is up today, in part, because of a rally in biotech stocks. a trader pointed out that the s&p biotech index has been on a tear so far today. peter anderson, is this a time to sort of look for bargains right now, do you think? >> i think there's

jim lowell from advisor investments. rick santelli joins us as well. gang, let me show you a couple charts to get this thing started. we all talk about how volume here at the new york stock exchange has continued to move lower and lower, even when we're not in a holiday period. this is a chart of the new york stock exchange volume, compared year or year for month by month. we're roughly down about 11% to 12% year over year this month. right? >> that's right. >> okay. now, i asked our research staff, if volume in the stock market is going lower, where is volume going up? guess where it is going up, rick santelli. this is the treasury yield for treasuries between 7 and 11-year maturity. look at the spike this month so far. >> this is volume? >> this is volume. >> it's 7 to 11 years but this is the chart that would capture any activity in the trading of the 10-year bond which of course we have seen a big rally in that exact note and of course, yields just going down. people are surprised that they keep going down. >> david kudlow, why is the yield going u

. >> jim lowell, this is not the first time the market has moved into record territory, then backed away late in the session here. what's the message here for you from this market? are we just getting tired or what's going on? >> well, we just came through earnings reporting season. could you put a fork in it. there was no new news. we are still on a slow-growth, not no-growth track. i agree with greg that janet yell didn't yellen's comments on the housing recovery had an effect. i don't think she just tossed the expected growth in the second quarter was just tossed out. if the momentum stocks continue to weaken and blue chip stocks continue to be the source where investors are finding not just return value long term but current difficult den yievidend so be it. from a long-term investor's perspective, i think we're going to go into continued volatility but i think the direction is net positive. >> what's the message from the u.s. dollar here then? this is what i don't understand. if the euro is sinking for the right reasons, shouldn't that be supportive of all the action we should be se
