asking too many agencies to do too many things? when i'm out of my district, i understand it's not just the sec, it's agency after agency. we are under a mountain of new uncertainty, i hear it from banks, small business owners, from whoever. and we're expecting these people to create jobs. putting that all together, how do we work together to resolve in in a way to reduce expenditures in agencies like yours and promote confidence in the economy? >> a couple points. i absolutely agrees it impacts the willingnesses of businesses to take risk, invest, because it's uncertain what the reward might be or whether they might not be able to follow through on something they've started. and that's intentioned with -- it's in conflict with our desire to get these rules right. so when congress pass as statute and asks us to implement something like the volcker rule, when we get that done, there will be some more certainty, but it's taking a long time to get it done, because we want to do it the right way. so there is, i think, always going to b

the list of people we owe our thanks to are many. if we have forgotten anybody, except our sincere apologies. we would also appreciate it if you hold applause in the interest of time. i would like to thank our developer-partner. it is through their expertise and hard work that this grand opening is possible. i would like to thank olson lee and tiffany from the agencies. true leadership requires a clear vision and a commitment to making that vision a reality. this project and the funding it received is owed to you guys. i would like to thank the staff , elizabeth, sally, heidi, migke, joyce. you are the ones that worked side-by-side to sweat the details and worked as long and hard as we did. if there is any recognition we receive as project managers, you receive that equally. i like to thank the department of public health and city-wide and the funding people. you were a big part of the success and will continue to be so for many years to come. finally, i would like to thank the members of the many community and neighborhood residents

for many decades, he was viewed by many as a bit of a moral conscience of the nation.hat he feels as though he was speaking of in that role today, although it is not a role he credibly has any more here in germany. an important point about german public opinion, certainly many people here in germany, when they look to iran and the possibility that iran could develop nuclear weapons capacities, they view that with great concern because iran is so authoritarian and often aggressive. many people also look to israel and the possibility of a pre- emptive strike against the iranians with great concern, too. i think that is what gunter grass was trying to address. but he went beyond the pale by suggesting that the israelis could use nuclear weapons. that is part of the reason why there has been so much criticism and outrage, both in germany and said germany. >> gunter grass is one of the country's most read in mistranslated authors. what will this mean for his legacy? >> it will be very damaging. he has been a waiting for us as a writer. that was compounded in a moral sense w

i could after many years, you've seen them before, but that was hard, and then to have so many opinions to deal with. it was very challenging. >> i would like everyone to know that i still work long into the night. i don't think the job is any easier. i do think one thing has been reduced substantially and that is in the old days when they were hearing 150 cases, you would get these terribly fractured opinions where someone would announce the judgment of the court and an opinion in which justice so and so joined part 1d, and i think with fewer cases there's less of that kind of fracturing. >> yes, there would be, yes. >> i think that, yes, i -- from external observation, i would say that the opinions are crisper, cleaner and easier to understand these days. it's probably better for the court. there are several theories as to why the court is hearing fewer cases, everything from fewer conflicts among the circuits to differences -- i guess my question is are there mechanical reasons internal to the court as to why this may be the case as well? >> i'd be interested to hear that, too. i'm n

how many through here? - 12. - 12. how many through here? 12. how many through here? 24. ah, what is it? it's 24. 'cause you get the 12 from here, and you get the 12 coming down this straight. ah. ah. how many through here? - 24. - 24. - how many through here? - 12. you guys are on, 12. how many through here? 36. 36. how many through the battery? 36. who's getting tired? the battery. the battery. the battery. more energy going out now. more power going out, you get it? okay? think about these ideas, gang. and here's a question i got for you. as you continue to put more and more resistors, does the battery see an overall resistance that is more or is less? and why? think about that. physics. [music] you are bonkers 'cause iron doesn't float. people make boats out of wood. well, here's this clay, and it has the same weight. watch this. oh, yuck. [laughter] yucko. yeah, we got it now, gang. isn't that nice? now it's being held up by what? your fingers. my fingers. you get the idea. concentration of force is pressure. so let's talk about that, gang. pressure, definition. scre

many have been injured in traffic accidents. the two-lane highways are especially dangerous for the animals. alonzo go mess from the police department's environmental protection division says they are drawn especially to the roads. >> the horses look for spots where they can graze in peace, where they can find more food. that is often on the roadside. office -- also, the asphalt is warmer than on the fields, so the horses are looking for some comfort. >> forces are a traditional part of the region and horse breeding is a lucrative business, but prices are falling. three years ago, this purebreds dallin could have sold for up to 14,000 euros. today, his market value is 10,000 euros of the most. >> the crisis is affecting all of us, but you can still make money with horses. others were worth nothing before, and they are worth even less now. that is why most of them are slaughtered. >> many end up at the slaughterhouse. >> some readers prefer to bring their fun wondered forces to the slaughterhouse said they did not have to sell th

many artists the next roles but. when people i don't know my younger friend for example denise matsui is a brilliant pianist he was here in this studio is very very nice person i think he's also very smart he's very organized i don't think he has to do something special or something tricky he doesn't have to sell himself he's doing what he does brilliantly he's playing piano but also leading his generation. i don't think it's correct and i think it's smart and i think it's more like to think well if what's the use of force or maybe he needs something from put it i think it's a very very big mistake it's exactly what was done. thirty years ago. by the way i'm never very critical of everything what you know of course not always i would you creation system was quite strong quite brilliant health care mainly farce the art was always a little sick of growth really but when we were told don't listen to the voice of america why. oh you can't because the realize that telling lies that's that's the same mistake what some some

you can probably gather that it has many functions and many people see it as benefiting their work. to show you where it is exactly, the current year's tree is right here. the site -- nursery is right here. the site is warmer and much more advantageous for growing. it is currently where they have a lot of the growing grounds in now. >> my understanding is that the current nursery was placed in a very low area that is colder and not a great place for a nursery. i am curious why it was built there in the first place. >> i do not know. when they did what the reports from san francisco, they pick the coldest spot. some recent data, it is about 10 degrees colder there. having it out of that is going to be advantageous. >> it is closer to the children's garden as well? >> that is right. the children's garden is in the western part of the garden. it will serve as a base of operations for the teachers and children's garden. they can have their supplies. they can gather the children before taking them out into the garden. to show you the building in more detail, it is organized in three case

despite many -- despite no response from many departments, including the port andpuc, analysts identified 20 parcels are not in use and have no plans for future use that are on our books. we currently have a decentralized property management system across our various departments despite having an official real estate division here in city hall. i would like to thank john updike for his help in this matter and his encouragement moving as ford. we have a reporting process mandated our charter that has not been followed through on. as we continue in city hall to approach our budget season when we suffer through manual -- through annual budget deficits, the onus is on us as a city government to be as efficient as possible and given the massive dollar amounts at stake, solving our real estate management issues is a really big deal and a big step in that direction. i look forward to hearing from the city departments involved and the rest i submit. supervisor kim: i'm really exciting about the hearing supervisor farrell is calling for today. my time at the school district, it was frustrating to

many believe the. trait and for many collecting vintage cars is more than just a hobby yes. but once you get noticed. pulling in front of the new black b.m.w. or arriving in a sparkling fifty seven chevy. after decades of strict rules of vehicles in the us no wonder. how the love affair. with friends. in the sixty's. has progressed incredibly. and just like fashion which comes around in full suckles for many that's happening in car culture to. see you again at the same time next week for me and the rest of the crew from here for now let's go. did i kill a innocent kid i was a calm face of course and that's never and said. i'm a song from the skull still of me i think of it every day. i still have the flashbacks from the memories. so much so a long time i'm just here trying to help. i was ashamed. i was ashamed that i didn't. i was ashamed that i hadn't been a hero why i got my arm i got my legs i'm alive. but in the mine. when i went to vietnam i was a forward. now believe what i was going on once or i think. that i was a good soldier. but now i'm a soldier on the other side

many are immigrants living in self-constructed housing.t's a good place to see the relationship between economics and religion and the changing fortunes of political pares a decade ago, the fundamentalist welfare party gained many supporters, including these two brothers. ( speaking turkish ) translator: the welfare party supports the citizens. ( other brother speaking ) translator: in the beginning, we could build here without paying taxes. narrator: like millions of people in istanbul, they have very low incomes, surviving as day laborers or through marginal trade. although religion was important, the welfare party also tried to address economic issues, working at the grassroots level to help people with their everyday problems. others, like many inner-city shopkeepers and tradespeople, regret the lack of traditional values in modern turkish society. for them, the fundamentalist welfare party has another appeal. ( speaking turkish ) translator: they are against drinking alcohol and in favor of islam. islam is the most important issue in

many many people here and you know probably. the eleven person that has a mind problem we out here. there is a lot and if there is law wardak there is. the latest arrivals are in an even worse condition than the others there's no more room for beds or mattresses on the floor. the refugees have to accommodate themselves in the corridors and staircases used to be about forty percent here for bush. and the who runs the fortress you're a blog dedicated to my current issues and italian russian journalist the only question in discussing the latest news has just been reported that another batch of refugees has arrived on the italian island of lampedusa in italy a self. these are the first booths to come to learn to do so since last september it is not yet clear how things will work out in the end but the best way to understand what is happening online producer is to visit the island right now. in the middle ages this island served as a haven for barbary corsairs by the late twentieth century it was a popular resort many italian familie

how many of us made mistakes? i had a few guys that were in iraq, that were fighting for our country and came home and reenlisted back in the army to go back over there. they went to a bar, got into a fight that led to the killing. the military -- they break them. there are some real good people on death row that were not the people that came to death row that committed the crime or did not commit the crime. i'm not here to say who did or did not do something, but to see that side that people do not get to hear about. they do not get to hear that these guys pray to god, that they pray for the victims' families out there, no matter who they are. it was something everybody did on death row. it was a rule of law. when is the time of execution, no one eats. it was a compassionate part of you remembering you were human, you remember that these people are hurting out side, and you -- and trying to ask god to heal them of their hurt -- remember that these people are hurting outside, and you reaching and trying to ask god

we made a lot of progress in many areas. the number of families falling into foreclosure is down by more than 1/2 cents the president can into office and we have seen the best winter in home sales that we have seen since the beginning of the crisis. we are clearly making real progress. ultimately, the final measure of whether we have broken through and are in full recovery is when housing prices across the board start rising in a consistent way. >> it has been four years we have had home prices fall, foreclosure levels are still very high. do you think the administration has done enough to tackle some of these nagging problems that have been holding back the economy? >> we have made real progress. delinquencies are far down from where they were when the president can into office. the number of people falling into foreclosure is down by more than half and, in fact, if you look over all at where house prices are, they were falling for 30 straight months before the president came into office. they have been rough lake level. th

many believe the. trait and for many collecting vintage cars is more than just a hobby yes. but once you get noticed. pulling in front of the new black b.m.w. or arriving in a sparkling fifty seven chevy. after decades of strict rules. no wonder. how you have friends. in the past sixty. has progressed incredibly. and just like fashion it's comes round full suckles for many that's happening in car culture to. see you again. for me and the rest of the crew from here. let's go. but did i kill innocent kid a was it a call to the base of course and that's never answered it. mom a song from the skull still for me i think of it every day. the flyers fired from their memories and i assume i said a long time i'm just here trying to help. i was ashamed. i was ashamed that i had been. i was ashamed that i hadn't been a hero why i got my arm i got my legs. in the mine. where i would be out. for to. find out what i was going on once or i think. that i was a good soldier. but now most soldier on the other side and i think i'm just in a good. wealthy british style sign it's time to rise. t

it is so many years before this is carried out, if they carry this out at all. most of the inmates died through suicide or by old age. for those reasons, this is not a deterrent. >> f i was plotting the murder of my partner because the slept in this morning, i would not think about if i was going to get the death penalty or spend the rest of my life in prison. i would ask myself if i would get caught. in california, half of the people who commit murder are not caught. we need to catch the people committing murder. this is what she means when punishment must be firm, if people get away with murder, they learn that they can and the community learns that they can. this is really the fundamental problem. we can do much better job if we were actually to replace the death penalty to life without parole and invest the money saved in solving homicides. every victim's family should have some justice. >> i wanted to ask you to perhaps tell the audience about the controversy related to the death qualified jury. many people did not realize that when we select a jury for the

many men as well as many women found the idea of women voting strange, foreign, and unacceptable. it violated their notion of what men's and women's proper roles were. while men were certainly perfectly prepared to involve women in informal political activities such as boycotts, they did not anticipate enlisting them in direct political action such as voting. so throughout the 1790s and into the early 19th century there were frequent diatribes against female suffrage in pamphlets, newspapers, and in the new jersey legislature itself. many of the attacks were outrageous, hysterical, and self-contradictory. some said women lacked the knowledge and judgment to participate in politics. but others feared that women were getting too knowledgeable about politics. some men feared that women were acting too much like men by participating. they abhorred the undue influence of women on politics, accusing them of forming a pettycoat faction or becoming manly women, as they put it. and they feared if women could vote they would inevitably start to run for public office. that was truly horrible

this is a city that is leading the way in many, many ways, in many things around for the world. so just do it, don't think about it because the more you think about it, the more you think about it, the more meetings you'll have like this, the more time we're going to spend here, the more money that is spent by both sides. to save that money and spend it where it needs to be spent. thank you. president fong: thank you. >> oh, and for the record, they'll still having babies at st. luke's. >> hi, president fong, members of the commission. i'm betty employed at st. luke's for 12 years now and on behalf of my co-workers, we ask you to please prove the building of st. luke's because of the jobs that the hospital will give us to support our families and the benefit this hospital will give to the community. we also urge you to vote yes for the safety of the patients and the employees due to the fear of the earthquake calamity anytime. we thank cpmc for taking over st. luke's campus because cpmc give us good benefits and for agreeing to give us our jobs in the new hospitals. thank you. >

many believe the love of cars in russia is in the trait and for many collecting binchy to retro cars is more than just a hobby i guess older cars don't drive as well as like to models but want to get noticed. pulling in front of the new black b.m.w. or arriving in a sparkling fifty seven chevy belair. after decades of strict important because in the u.s. a song the one day russians have love affairs with you we have friends who are new. in the past sixty years the industry in russia has progressed incredibly. and just. like fashion this comes around in full suckles for many that's happening in car culture too. beautiful car will unfortunately that's how we have left on this week's program on the subject of retro cars here in the russian capital i'll see you again at the same time next week for me and the rest of the crew from victory pocket for now let's go. down the official ante up location on the phone i pod touch from the top story. one life on the go. video on demand r.t.s. my old costs and r.s.s. feeds now in the palm of your. question on the dot com that are killing innocent k

there were other shores, many of them wicked.etimes the attack was in frail cracks, sitting ducks if surprise on the enemy had not been accomplished. on other beats, continuous tractors. in addition, combined operations of the three arms, the key to modern warfare. leaders and men shared the glow of victory. losses on the allied side were relatively small since damaging frontal assaults were avoided. but thousands of japanese prepared to fight to the death were rarely given this opportunity although many were captured, thousands more were isolated, their supply and communication lines destroyed. in the words of the strategist who carried out the plan, the main body of the enemy was left to wither on the vine. to the outside world, to many who saw the news reels, the progress being made by the general was admired an applauded. but to those who understood macarthur, they saw his determination to return to the philippines, this to him was a moral obligation. these islands, a second home, the place where he left his comrades, was the

and in many ways, we got that.e were able to get the civil rights laws passed that got rid of housing discrimination, job discrimination and discrimination in public accommodations, those kinds of things. and that opened up the possibility of people who but for race and racial discrimination would have been able to access. so it allowed people who had education to now begin to get jobs, people who had money to now be able to buy houses in different places. but there's so many things that did not get addressed that were holding people back. i'll go back to the transportation example. you may have an equal opportunity employer, but if our investment in transportation doesn't get you a bus route to that job, it's not a real chance. we may say that yeah, you can go to any college in the nation, but if you happen to be black or latino and you grow up in an inner city community, the schools that you have gone to aren't going to really prepare you to be able to go to those colleges. not in huge numbers. that's not really

communities and this is something i have worked on for many years. one thing i have done, and i was appointed to it -- i have been known to say that one of the things i say in my office -- we have the structural integrity unit, and the evidence and the credibility of the witnesses, this is presented to make certain that we have the transparent and fair trial. i am aware of the misconduct, and i think that this is a shared responsibility. when i was in the loss angeles police department, i was one of those who was asked to look at the breakdowns in the aftermath of this incident. this was involving several gang officers, and it was determined that they have lied on police reports. and this resulted in the conviction of some individuals. i was taught -- involved in the assessment of the breakdown. one thing that was very obvious to me -- there had been breakdowns in police leadership, but also in the whole criminal justice system. the prosecutors were too willing to hear a story that was not believable. there were members of the defee that did not do t

that connection to read through all of my online activity this destroys the internet there are so many businesses that are no longer going to thrive as a result of cisco so that's the other thing i don't understand is not only is this bad for our privacy it's actually bad for big internet businesses kind of embarrassing or supporting it i was just going to argue a kind of interesting too that so many people are voted in favor of this law of so much more government overreach are the same ones saying you know the government shouldn't be involved in in so many things it's just very interesting how it varies from issue to issue david seaman a journalist and host of the d.l. show well it's been twenty years since one of the deadliest and costliest urban uprisings in american history many parts of los angeles have been rebuilt since the one thousand nine hundred two riots but believe it or not there are some parts of the city that have been unable to fully recover over the past two decades the six days of violence ended with more than fifty deaths and more than a billion dollars in damage bu

and bev, i suspect that many of these folks have co-occurring conditions. do you want to help us understand a little bit what co-occurring conditions are all about? absolutely. you know, many people will have two separate conditions occurring at the same time and so they may have depression along with substance use disorder. and so parallel services need to occur in order for them to be able to sustain long-term recovery. and joe, speaking of co-occurring issues, how many people are actually treated, you know, for co-occurring and for substance use and for mental illnesses? well, that's a good question ivette, i mean, there are many, of course, there are millions of course, of people that are being treated for both co-occurring disorders and that is all over the country. i think that in treatment they have been parallel and they have been separated, so now is the time for treatment to happen for both. yes. does everyone, thomasina, that wants to get treatment, are they able to find it? is there enough treatment around the country if all these millions of pe

many victims were children. the truce is essentially in tatters, a special -- especially since syrian foreign ministry went on tv to pour cold water on kofi annan's peace plan. he denied that damascus ever committed to the withdrawal. he has said that they will only abide by the cease-fire if assad's forces do as well. >> at least 25,000 syrians have taken refuge in turkey. kofi annan will be visiting the camps on tuesday to assess the situation. >> refugees are also crossing the border into lebanon where the u.n. is providing humanitarian relief out there. >> and unloading supplies for syrian ridge fiji's in lebanon. -- syrian refugees in lebanon. many of these people fled their homes, taking only what they could carry. the refugees take shelter in an abandoned industrial buildings, garages, and unused schools. the lebanese government officially supports damascus and has done little for serious displaced by the unrest. the u.n. provides a lifeline for people. >> we are doing well in comparison to our relatives

i want to add to that ron conway, because i know he is representing many, many tech businesses, which are largely small businesses. while we want to acknowledge corporate america that is participating in a very strong way, and that is very important, and some small businesses, as you mentioned. but the idea that this connection will be made with these young people and small businesses in our community, hopefully they will all grow big, these kids and these businesses but that is really a very important part of the public-private initiative that the president had in mind. certainly a pleasure and a great source of official pride to be with the mayor, with david chiu, with members of the board of supervisors, and of course united way, the official partner the president named. thank you for your leadership, eric. your story told it all. it told it all. what a difference that job made starting when you're 14 years old, and we are all blessed that that opportunity was there and was taken advantage of. i am excited that we're here with carlos garcia, our superintendent. unfortunately not fo

i've worked for many, many years on budget and finance issues. of course was elected in 2003 as principle chief of the eastern band. i've served as budget and finance director. of course, i also served in a capacity as an independent auditor for our tribe for a number of years with a new york-based accounting firm. and i've held my certified public accounting license for 18 years now. and the reason i say that it's not to define myself but i understand how difficult the budgeting process is. the eastern band has adopted a what we call a balanced budget act. the cost of our government does not exceed our daily resources and i know you have to deal with a similar structure. one of the thing that i think we've done a very nice job of is identify through a needs base or critical priorities for government. and of course, you know, remembering what the obligation is to the people of our tribe and the people of our region. of course the 2013 budget should reflect a federal priority of honoring its treaty and trust obligations to indian people. overall i

yeah you know there are many opinions opinions as there are police officers you'll find some who you know believe that good police work is the key to getting what you want and it's not necessarily brute force or any of the other things unfortunately all of the you know the departments themselves or government agencies and the first purpose of a government agency is to perpetuate itself and to excuse itself and to absolve itself of any responsibility for its failures in the other big organizations in volved in this are the police unions and their job is is just to make life easier for cops regardless of whether the cops are doing their job properly or not so just for them at that time i mean what's the answer here because certainly it stands to reason that police officers want to have you know violent offenders afraid of them so where is that line between you know using a stun gun and doing nothing at all. yes well having violent offenders afraid of them is fine i don't know that all of the population should necessarily be afraid of the police as you mentioned that's one of the things

contributions of many people. she was the icing on our cake. >> rose: probably both is there something other than than what we have already spoke own to that unifies this presentation? >> well, what we have been trying to do in once sense is to locate the works of art in the story of islam that sheila has said, but also to, by bringing about an emphasis on the regional diversity of these, you know, arts, the art centers, we've also been able to locate the objects and the long continuities of each region. and so this is a slightly new way if you like of looking at all of this material which is neither, you know, it's a more natural way in i one encounters works of art. works of art, you know, they have their own personality, they speak for themselves. they can't be forced, necessarily, into one interpretation or another. and it's always better and in this case we felt it was much better to be able to give this wide canvas where you can learn all about islam, the story of islam, the unfolding of islamic history and

the great recession was a game changer for many. many people became homeless for the first time. i am one of many that lost their job and home. i would like to ask respectfully if you would please do something to make the shelter reservation system easier. [applause] things are getting better now implement-wise. i have lost two jobs each time when my shelter reservation ran out. one can only get a reservation for four months. to get a new one, one has to spend an incredible amount of hours to get a new reservation. in the meantime, you lose your job because of the prejudice and stigma attached to the homeless. the assumption still is that one is homeless, in a shelter, because you are lazy, stupid, or crazy. to just be a normal person trying to get your life back from the great recession has not quite manifested itself. so if you could possibly make it easier to just get a new reservation. i am one of many people. if i could get a new reservation, i would do the rest. i hope something can be done. i am speaking on behalf of many people. also, just to get a 90-day reservation, you
