commissioner mcdowell jl any comment on that? >> yeah. my concern overall is that such international mandates could be used as a sword and a shield by authoritarian regimes at the same time. keep in mind, though, that cyber security is discussed in many diplomatic for ra, not just wict or itu, other places as well, but as a general matter, we should be very concerned before entering into any international agreements on this that we aren't put at disadvantage. >> i don't know if congresswoman mentioned this, talking before i had to leave the room, but the process would be consensus agreement, would those, then have to go back to this, the national governments for, like, a treaty ratification, as we see in other treaties like kyoto, not to pick on it, but some countries picked it up. some countries like the united states never voted on it. i think that's the issue of bull can sthaigs you' bulkenization. wouldn't that disenfranchise those countries that think they're trying to uses it for their own regime stability and regime preservation, b

i want to get to commissioner mcdowell. thank you. >> when it comes to the process, the department of state actually takes the lead. it's a treaty negotiation. >> how many are on a team? are there votes? is it ho 40 people? >> there are 193 member states of the itu. they each have one vote, no reto power. don't matter how many people are in your country. still the same vote. >> kind of like the senate. >> i'll stay out of the bicameral -- >> i know. i know. >> but the idea of every 24 years on the one hand is accurate. on the other hand, this is actually almost an annual issue. there's some other conference, you know, that's almost every year if not several conferences per year. so the itu has many different conferences. for instance the world communicationings conference the ambassador talked about was this past january and february. but we need to look beyond this december. i want to make sure the committee and everybody listening understands it's not just about this december. this is just the latest vignette in this dram

the main street is east washington street, right near north mcdowell and south mcdowell boulevard. originally it was near safeway now best western in that same shopping area, complex or near the same area. if you are traveling northbound on 101 east washington street off-ramp is currently blocked. you may want to consider old redwood highway as an alternate. but, with the police activity you want to avoid this area all together. this is east washington just on the eastside of 101. right now 101 traffic southbound, i did check that, flowing well for most commuters heading south towards novato. >>> let's look at live doppler, if you are waiting to head out, it is dry mostly cloudy let's head up north rain now getting near mendocino, ft. bragg heading towards ukiah, you can look at the last three hours having a southeast momentum. i think by the end of the compute we'll start to see rain moving into the north bay probably by the end of the commute. right now mostly cloudy, upper 40s north bay valleys. >>> :04. we will continue to update you on that breaking news throughout this newsca

now, first off we're going to hear from robert mcdowell. rob, as most of you know, maybe everyone in this room may know, that robert mcdowell is a commissioner at the fcc. he was first appointed to his fcc seat by president bush, george w. bush in 2006. and reappointed to the commission in 2009 becoming the first republican to be appointed to an independent agency by president barack obama. now, prior to becoming an fcc commissioner, commissioner mcdowell served as senior vice president for the competitive telecommune kangss association. we had responsibilities involving efficacy values regarding white house and agencies. as i said, i'm not going to tell you where all these guys went to school and always of that, but you know, as commissioner mcdowell knows i will mark an exception for him, because we are now new graduates. i'm going to do that and not even mention that dick beaird, who i will introduce next has a ph.d. when-of-which he holds from colorado, but that's it. now, richard c. beaird is senior deputy, united states coordinator fo

we turn now to commissioner mcdowell. appreciate you being here and your loud and clear voice on this issue as well. please. and we welcome your son as well. you want to introduce your special assistant there today? >> yes. one of my many supervisors my oldest son griffin is 12. this is his first day of summer vacation. he wanted to see how his tax dollars were being spent. >> you brought him here for that. >> he press conference after the hearing. >> that's right. >> thank you very much, mr. chairman and ranking member eschew and all members of the subcommittee. a pleasure to be here today and an extreme honor to be seated next to my friend and colleague, ambassador revere, as well as right before the next panel good friends, as well, ambassador gross, dr. surf, and his mintworth as well. they're going to be outstanding witnesses. first, please let me allow to dispense quickly and emphatically any doubts international internationally about the bipartisan resolve of the united states to resist efforts to expand the itu's

we believe this is along mcdowell boulevard. we are told by a clerk at a nearby best western, there have been shots fired. it appears to be closed off right now. several vans there, a lot of police armed heavy activity there. looks like they're joining forces right there having some kind of huddle or meeting as the chopper adjusts its shot a little bit. we're going to keep our crew there and bring you the latest information as it becomes available to us this morning. but breaking news we're covering in petaluma. >>> a hit-and-run crash causes a lot of damage overnight. take a look at what happened at simpson soul food. yeah, a car slammed right into the corner. the driver ran away before police and firefighters managed to arrive at the scene. >>> a lot of charges, but not a lot of locals in that occupy protest arresting in san francisco. the group took over a building on turk street for about 12 hours. police say 11 of the 26 people arrested do not live in san francisco county. four others are from out of state. now the clock is

in that area you're starting your morning commute as an alternate that does run parallel to south mcdowell. we also just learned that bad off ramp up to northbound 112 east washington and have shut that down. plus on the meantime will toss it back to you. >>> gang member is are suspected in a brutal attack that killed a south bay teenager the boy was beaten friday night and roosevelt park in east san jose and mackovic is in san as a rationale and police are having trouble getting witnesses to talk. and it took them several days even come out with the story they're hoping there would be will define their on clues in this attack and what happened last friday but now the police and says saying are imploring the community to come forward as they continue to look for suspects 14 year-old researcher ray has had just been dropped off by his father when he was badly beaten punch and kick in roosevelt park. he died monday at the hospital. police say the greater was targeted in a gang attack although they say is not clear if he was in a gang himself. the brutal nature of this crime anti fact we need

have the chairman and commissioner mcdowell speak. and then we would come in with questions, as you can see, there's a lot of people here and a lot more coming. so we might want to use our time efficiently. >> jim rockefeller? >> thank you, members of the committee, thank you for the opportunity to be here today. congressional oversight is a vital function. this committee has also taken -- the provisions on incentive auctions and public safety, faithfully implementing the new law is a key priority of the fcc today. i'm pleased to be joined by a full complement of -- experience and accomplish the excellent additions, they join a commission that's been productive, colleague jal and focused on issues that are important to our country. engagement that has significantly improveded our decisions and our processes. at the fcc, the problem is to maximize the communications technology to further the public interest, to help grow our economy, create jobs, enhance u.s. competitiveness, and we have made tremendous progress in the past three years

i agree with commissioner mcdowell, december is not the ends of the game. that's the next step in this process. this has been a process for many years now through other fora around the world so we'll get past december, we'll i think hopefully breathe a small sigh of relief but only small because the threats will continue to be out there, other places they will develop. and we have to be ever vigilant. >> thank you, rick, and all of the panelists for those initial remarks. when i started, in trying to capsulize what we were discussing today, i contrasted the existing internet governance model which i called a privatized bottoms up multi-stakeholder approach with a top-down inner governmental control approach that we want to avoid. and then rick witty comes along at the end and described google as an over the top provider and what, under the bottom or on the bottom. >> referred to as over the top repeatedly so -- extend the analogy to our friends. >> over the top company that p's on everything. >> remember we have a television audience here. here today. >> ok

. >> i would think -- and this is a question for both ambassador verveer and commissioner mcdowell -- that there should be more opening of the process for knowledge, increase of knowledge here even in the united states as the importance of this. we in this country tend to take the internet for granted. and, you know, we see what's happened with the arab spring and realize how it's affected other countries. i think that to a great degree we forget that we -- what would happen if let's say the worst happened, the scenario, and that things would close down,. i'm curious, what would happen if the worst happened here? what would happen here in this country with? would those resolutions immediately become lu laue? what steps can the u.s. take to limit its participation in the treaty? you know, i kind of want to know what would happen. and either of you can answer that, and -- both of you, in fact. >> this is a very important point that you've raised, and i'm glad you have. first, it is conventional, and we assuredly will take a very broad reservation from whatever is agreed at the conferenc

captioning performed by vitac >> before i begin, i would like to acknowledge commissioner mcdowell. commissioner mcdowell has been a leading voice in reminding us of the importance of internet freedom and how vital the internet is to innovation and economic growth and once again his excellent opening remarks he has done that again. and for that we are very much appreciative and it has had a very positive impact we believe as we go forward in our preparations for the world conference on international telecommunication. at the outset let me make one point perfectly clear. the administration and of course the department of state firmly supports the position that the united nations is not the place for the day-to-day technical operations of the internet. we have made this point repeatedly and we will continue to make it. the united nations and the itu can do many things, and they can do those things effectively and importantly. and the areas of development, the areas of training as a forum for discussion of international policy matters and the case of the itu preeminently in the area of

mcdowell's piece in the "wall street journal." you alluded to the fact there was a lack of leadership on this from the u.s. and it sounded as if mr. beaird when he was speaking that the obama administration and state department were looking forward to these talks and really gaining traction and i was wondering if you could clarify that. second, mr. beaird, you said that with the countries and the member states that everyone was fearful of losing their sovereignty and something you wanted to protect. when i read i believe it was "the wall street journal" piece you had said that -- losing my train of thought now. that it seemed like there was almost a majority of member countries that were looking into these itr regulations and based on treaties, the u.s. doesn't have a veto and where we're seven or eight countries short of countries looking to make these changes to the itr. i wondered if you could expand on those. >> thank you for the question. so i had an 800-word op-ed, a statement of fact saying a head of delegation had not been

commissioner mcdowell and dick baird in the different critical ways. so, three points which i'll try to do quickly. why is verizon engaged, what's at stake and how can we get a good outcome here. so i'm pleased that dick set the stage with the notion of the public private collaboration here, and verizon is definitely a part of that when you heard my bio, it listed all of these different organizationses in which we are engaged and clearly the itu is one of those. but so is the internet governance forum and the multi-stake holder organizations. why do we do that, three main reasons. our customers, everywhere, u.s. and elsewhere, are all communicating via ip technologies, internet protocol technologies. secondly, globally we carry a lot of this internet traffic on our global network which includes capacity on understood ground cables and satellite capacity and we often speak of those as the digital trade routes of the 21st century. of course they are also the channels for freedom of expression as was commented earlier today. and third, we provide global e

up next on the communicators conversation with robert mcdowell of the federal communications commission this week, communicators, a look at spectrum and other issues before the federal communications commission with fcc commissioner robert mcdowell. >> commissioner mcdowell yesterday at the senate commerce committee hearing oversight of the fcc you had all five commissioners there. has the dynamic changed now that you have finally a full complement of commissioners? >> right. there were sworn in monday morning first thing the third day on the job on wednesday, yesterday. they testified with us before the senate commerce committee and certainly that changed the dynamic where right away we have a very qualified people both of whom have worked at the fcc and on capitol hill before they moved these issues. they're very smart and easy to work with and i very much looking forward to continuing to do work over the years. >> does that restrict now -- what are the restrictions on the five commissioners actually meeting, can you talk with ajik on the commission privately or go over to german gena

maria drive its parallels mcdowell. it is parallel but then cuts across. we understand that it also could involve the closure of the northbound off ramp to east washington boulevard. fact >>mark: the latest on the mad cow disease investigation, investigators have tracked down at least one of spring of the infected cow. the offspring was euthanize if the tests came back negative. the department of agriculture has quarantined to different farms. authorities say the affected cal was never intended for the food supply and there is no reason to believe any beef is at risk. new regulations require notification within 24 hours of a contamination. according to the centers for disease control full born diseases annually sick and one in six americans. >>darya: today, document will be released that were seized during the attack killing osama bin-laden. >>mark: police are searching for suspects in the beating death of an 8 great san jose boy. police say the boy was attacked by a group of young men at roosevelt park on friday. he died from injuries sustained to his hea

mcdowel or the others, is there anyone who wants to weigh in on this as well? >> i think it's right, senator. it's important to keep it to a bare minimal amount. if we go back briefly to 2007, when i voted on the order, i voted for the d-block, but i did not vote for the c-block. but in both cases, it did not turn out as expected. the intended winner didn't make a winning bid and there are all sorlts of other collateral problems with it. so with the best of intentions we can make these designs. but then the market has passed by the thinking of the government at the time. i thank the chairman for talking a lot about that recently. i know many people want to ask questions. >> thank you, senator hutchinson. senator kerry? >> thank you, mr. chairman. obviously the technology -- in a lot of the things that people have a choice on. there are really only two wireless providers. 96% of americans have a choice so my question to you is how would you say the law has, in fact, either encouraged or discouraged competition in the best sense of the word in terms of number num

mcdowell? >> i believe you're speaking about the waiver process at the fcc. >> all right. >> and we had an interesting dialogue earlier regarding that. we do, we're taking this very seriously. we want to make sure that the waiver applications are as detailed as possible. so we truly understand what the hardships may or may not be for the applicants. we also want to keep it as streamlined as possible. this is a work in process, and we hope to be able to refine our process going forward, and learn a lot as we go. >> the process proceeding. >> i think it's proceeding fine thus far and we will make determinations as quickly as possible. on those waiver applications. >> well, thank you very much. and i appreciate folks sticking around. i look to counsel, to see if there's magic words i need to say. do i need to adjourn the hearing or -- >> this is the most power i've had in quite a while. if there's no objection from the other members of the committee, we'll keep the record open for two weeks. hear

. >> host: commissioner mcdowell yesterday at the senate commerce committee hearing oversight of the fcc, you had all five commissioners at there. has the dynamic changed now that you finally come to the full conference of commissioners. >> guest: they were sworn in monday morning first thing. we are taping this on a thursday, so the third day on the job, yesterday. they testified with us before the senate commerce committee. certainly that changes the dynamic. right away we have very to qualified people in, both of them have worked out the fcc and on capitol hill before. they know these issues. they are very smart, easy to work with. and i look for a much forward to work with him over the years. >> host: does that restrict now, what are the restrictions on the five commissioners actually meeting? can you talk with the other republican on the commission privately or go over to chairman genachowski's office and talk to them privately? >> guest: enacted in the wake of watergate, some people felt as though some agencies were meeting making rules and smoke-filled dark room somewhere out

people are being asked to stay away from the area of south mcdowell and mcneil drive.lyfield is on her way to the scene as we speak. we'll have an update from her as soon as possible. needless to say this is traffic impact as well in that area. frances will be telling us more about that. >>> right now the weather forecast. >>> good morning. good news, live doppler, dry right now if you are heading out the commute won't be hampered by wet weather. unless you head way north in the mendocino county and northwest corner of the state you can see the system rotating around counterclockwise flow of that low going to push showers towards us in the morning hours in the north bay you can see sprinkles even drizzle at 8:00 i think the commute is going to be dry for all of us upper 40s to low 50s. noon you have a better chance of seeing organized wet weather across the north bay, temperatures in the mid 50s to 60 towards concord and livermore, increasing clouds and by 4:00 in the afternoon still looking at rain shield across the north bay in the form of light rain green moving sou

as commissioner mcdowell has talked about wireless or land line, dozens and dozens of choices. it's remarkable to me that we're talking about given our limited ability to manage anything. that we think we can manage the internet and pick winners and losers. the market has worked well. and from what i hear with the players and stake holders in the market is that this threat of the government coming in and deciding how much they're going to charge based on bandwidth, not only affects the networks but eventually the contact providers will be told how to favor one versus another. so this is a big concern for me. and commissioner mcdowell, we hear monopoly talked about a lot in the wireless business, but how many how many purr chus them from providers other than verizon and at&t. >> perhaps half the marketplace is picking up providers other than the top two. >> i think we have a pretty remarkable and dynamic marketplace. and there's a good and growing case for lighter and lighter hand of regulation. not to go in and have no complaints and no problems, and violate the private propert

>> i believe so. >> yes. >> say yes, please. >> commissioner mcdowell? >> yes. >> -- commission never rose worth? >> yes. >> and commissioner pike? >> yes. >> excellent. and not much time either on that. this is for the chairman and it has to do with theabili mobilit fund. in the context of service reform, you and i have spoken about the importance that requireless services -- in rural areas, the fcc -- areas that are under served today. prior to our fcc actions to reform the universal service fund, our offices together discussed the importance of making sure that the fcc's efforts help bring wireless service to rural areas that do not have it now. but it's my understanding that the largest holders in my state of west virginia may not participate in this fund. my question is can the mobile fund serve places like west virginia even if local carriers refuse to take part, number one, and number two, if not what other steps could be taken to bring wireless services to these areas. >> we hope and expect that there will be broad participation in the upcoming a

well, first just as a practical matter, are there proposals that commissioner mcdowell just referred to, are they on the itu web site? if people want to follow this also see what's developing, where do they find the proposals? then have i a substantive question for you as well. >> that's a question, randy, that was posed, i was in geneva a couple weeks ago and the civil society raised questions about access to information regarding proposals coming in to the itu and the wicket. the situation today is the following: that the council working group operates within council rules, which is stlau to -- first of all, be a member of the itu, but secondly have access to their particular messaging system and what is password protected. that's the situation. now, the access to the proposals of course, as i have done and others have done, is if you ask me, i will give you those proposals. i don't want to you have a flood of requests coming in from the room or from those in the television audience. >> i thought you were going to say you were going to give us the password. >> no. i can't do that.

mcdowell or the others, is there anyone who wants to weigh in on this as well. >> it's very important that we keep the coverage to a minimal amount. when we go back to 2007, when i voted on the july 2007 order for the 700 megahertz auction. there were encumbrances for the b block encumbrances and the c block encumbrances. the intended winner for the c block didn't make a winning bid and nobody bid on the d block or had a minute mum bid. by the time the auction takes place, and certainly by the time these networks were built out, the market has passed by the thinking of the government at that point in time. that's why which think it's important to adopt what we call flexible use policies and the chairman and i have talked about that a lot recently. >> i know there's a lot of us that want to ask questions, but if we don't get a second round, i do have some questions for the record. does mr. chairman. >> thank you senator hutchinson, senator kerry? >> thank you mr. chairman chairman. you've even countered some of the progress made and some of the advances in technology. obviously the tec

it is south mcdowell between east washington and react drive. ramp is open and what they will not let to go in this direction for east washington. the traffic that we have seen on the freeway in the still see now, even if that was backed up it has nothing to do with this incident. it is the normal commute flow. >>darya: we do want to let you know we know. this rate happened a 4:00 a.m. this morning in petaluma. one suspect -- suspect is in custody. three agents were injured. the agents were serving a warrant this morning. >>erica: if you wanna find out updates on this story can check it out on our kron 4 facebook page. >>darya: the son as been arrested in relation to the shooting death of his father. the boy's father was a federal agent. this morning is mostly cloudy. we're looking for that cold front to pass through this a chance of showers exists for the afternoon. and into the evening hours. tomorrow beat mile but this week and looks good. >>george: there not any freeway hot spot this morning. it is a little heavier around the bay. at first i

commissioner mcdowell wrote a piece titled the u.n. threat to freedom. you were talking about the international telecommunications union. i know you're all interested in the process. can you give us brief update as to where we stand on the issue, what role the commissioner will play in that regard? >> the commission plays a supporting role as a technicaled a virz to the state department. the state department takes the lead role in that. i understand through both private and public information that the state department will be announcing ahead of the u.s. delegation, a head negotiator probably next month some time. this comes as a crucial time. it's important, especially in dw developing world that can be devastated by international regulation of government. >> does the commission have a supporting rule? what we should be advocating for or against in terms of an agenda for the summit? >> thus far i've been very encouraged by administration statements on this issue. there was a block posting a couple of weeks alaska by the white house and state department

see if you go see the quarter final stage mcdowell winning it on the first hole of a playoff and his next opponent is rafael could but add a bellow he got an impressive three one victory over queer ups. while scotland's color was probably the most impressive on saturday thrash south africa's retief goosen six and five. that sets up a last fall clash with nicholas called the belgian coming out of the sand here to see off a late charge from brad snedeker. and is jason dufner he leads the bar in nelson championship in texas at the moment with a round left to play he has a one. day j.j. henry and pride. now it wasn't just football which had a european final taking place on saturday in rugby the biggest club game of the year was held in london and historic a very twickenham with the decider played out between two irish sides for the first time instead proving themselves masses of europe once again by dominating northern neighbors forty two fourteen run adrift school and company remarkably clinching the heineken cup crown in four years stay with rugby where russia wrapped up their continen

this is near mcdowell and mcneil.s was the search warrant that was being served at this home around 4:00 this morning. immigration and customs enforcement agents execute what they refer to as a high risk search warrant, related to a gang investigation. we understand from sources neighbors say they heard several loud bangs coming from the home. we do know the s.w.a.t. team was involved in this situation. and we do know that several of the three agents who were injured somehow were airlifted to local hospitals. and we talked with one woman who saw one of those agents being taken to a medical helicopter. listen to what she has to say. >> i saw one that appeared -- they were trying to get him out of there. he seemed fine. i heard he had a gunshot to the arm. >> he seemed to awake and alert? >> yes, seemed like in a lot of pain. >> could you tell where he was shot. >> the arm, the way he was holding it like this. >> this is the home where again immigration and customs enforcement agents were serving some kind of high risk

search will face paul graeme mcdowell is the top seed left in the competition and most of the crowd followed his contest against garcia in the quarter final stage mcdowell winning it on the first extra hole of play and its next opponent is rafael could bear bellow he got an impressive three one victory over. while scotland's paul lowry was probably the most impressive on saturday and thrashed south africa's retief goosen six in five and that sets up a last ball clash with nicolas colsaerts the belgian coming out of the sand here to see off a late charge from brad snedeker. and jason dufner doing the bar nelson championship in texas with a round left to play he has a one stroke lead david jason day j.j. henry and dick and provide. now it wasn't just football which had a european final taking place on saturday in rugby the brigade the biggest club game of the year was held in london and the story twickenham with the decider played out between two are excited for the first time proving themselves masters of europe once again by dominating northern neighbors forty two fourteen brian o'd

this is a long south mcdowell and mcneil boulevard.nts are still gathered as you can see outside that home but it is unclear whether there were people living or dead inside that home. three agents were taken to the hospital and we understand the homeland security officers were taking out -- staking out the home but neighbors heard a lot of gunfire and it's reported they were serving some sort of warrant. neighbors heard some gunfire and we will hear from some neighbors later. >>> here is another story, just 45 minutes ago, documents from pakistan were posted on line. it shows osama bin laden was focused on coming up with plots to kill u.s. leaders including president barack obama. >>> police announced a hit-and- run driver who crashed into simpson sole food -- soul food restaurant and knocked down part of the wall. >>> a letter will be sent home to parents one week after a seven-year-old boy found a used syringe which happened at hyland children's center. they are taking medications to prevent hiv and hepatitis. >>> and apparently beco

and from this point on in malaga the belgian never found himself in a race mcdowell did square the match on several occasions including here the fourteen twenty birdies. but he could never challenge for the lead and by the last hole cole sides had two parts to win it's his second victory on the european tour and seven hundred thousand dollars and a place and the world's top fifteen for the first time. it's going to. you know it's going to be very difficult you know you know he's one of the us open series used to be going into of conditions. it was going to be in this is. you know i'm glad that all that often and it all went down to the final hole in the states to jason dufner making a twenty five foot birdie here on the loss to win the bar nelson championship beating taking pride by a single shot to claim just over a million dollars in prize money. lastly the martial art of sound i won't think the upcoming london olympics but the sport does believe it has the qualities to be included in the future and attracted fighters from rec or thirty two countries at the recent european championship

mcdowell's brigade tent, possibly his headquarter, part of sherman's division and the right flank of sherman's division as it lay encamped around shiloh church. there's another union camp that they occupied that night for the north. one of the brigades of mclerned's division. it's a probability as well. the highest probability, the 16th entered was mcdowell's camp there for some time and i could see them taking this flag and this was donated to the park years ago from descendants of major goberg. it's in good shape. showing that it was well cared for and stored. even though apparently this had been buried at one time in the ground. that's the story. that's the family story, with a loved one for a while. in a grave. i'm not sure, but it was recovered later, and that's how they claim that the staining occurred. it may have gotten wet underground at that point in time. all of the flags underwent major conservation treatment so they can be properly exhibited. the next flag is not a relic of the battle, having a -- or been a witness flag in the battle. this is an 1864 dalton patterned con

commissioner mcdowell opposes the plan saying that economic and political progress every would grind to a halt. this afternoon at 49:00 eastern, a house subcommittee is holding an oversight hearing to examine the department of veterans fairs purchasing practices of prosthetics. according to the department's inspector general, the va's prosthetic supply costs have increased by 80% over the past four years, in large part due to excess supply. again, that's live today at 4:00 p.m. eastern. and switching over to politics, mitt romney made news last night wenning the texas republican presidential primary. the delegates he picked up helped him surpass the 1144 delegates needed to secure his party's nomination. former massachusetts governor will not gain the official nomination until august's republican national convention in tampa, florida. and in wisconsin on friday, republican governor scott walker and milwaukee democratic mayor tom barrett faced off in a debate ahead of that state's june 5th recall election, only the third in u.s. history. governor walker became the targets of recall ef

commissioner mcdowell. >> thank you very much, randy.room is packed, and you probably can't see it all on c-span, but it's standing room only. this is a testament to everything the free state foundation has been able to do in the past few years in terms of building itself up and building your good work. but it's so crowded that i noticed the c-span technician, his little operation center is actually in the bar over there -- [laughter] so i think that was a good placement on his part. [laughter] um, but thank you for also importing, highlighting this very important issue. i think we could all agree that mobile internet connectivity is improving the human condition more rapidly and more fundamentally than any other technology, disruptive technology, in history. in the united states, a lightly-regulated and competitive require wireless market has sparked a sustained cycle of investment, innovation and job growth not to mention lower prices and increased functionality for consumers. sophisticated devices and complex mobile applications, howe
