broth this will find out coming right up then we have the co-founder and chairman of stock twits mr howard lindzon well that's hard to say just which he's on the show today and listen is a serial entrepreneur with over twenty years of experience and he's helping us bridge the gap between the worlds of technology and finance and finally in today's big deal edward harrison and i are discussing loss making tech companies they certainly seem to be all the rage right now you won't want to miss the moment let's get to it. our lead story today is loan debt now according to new projections from the congressional budget office americans needing federally subsidized student loans for undergraduate or graduate universities who pay a higher interest rate in the coming academic year now in july of two thousand and thirteen the obama administration proposed a long term solution to student loan debt whereby the interest rates on newly issued loans would vary from year to year and would be linked to the ten year treasury bond interest rate now the deal sets interest rates for undergraduate loans for two t

howard strassner. barbara chisa north korea a. ~ chisana. [speaker not understood]. is mr. clark here? >> i don't think so. >>> howard strassner. it's so nice to respond to the last speaker. your major job now -- you're trying to do a great job providing muni service. you have to convince the rider voters of san francisco that they could not get anywhere near where they want to go unless muni works well. you just heard how impossible that is. the people don't understand it. you can't see that they pay for parking as a tax. it's not a tax. it's a fee for service. it's a double benefit. you use the money to keep muni running so that other drivers don't get in their way so they can get downtown. and when they get downtown, when they get to where they want to go, parking is cheaper than it would have been. if none of us could use muni, both of us with cars could not be muni, cars would be axis i have all over the city. [speaker not understood]. it's not for me to understand that. you have to kind of explain that to everybody. that's why we took the [speaker not understood]. that's why we sa

. >> howard, you think that this scandal is tied directly and only to mr. sterling.s has nothing to do with the clippers and that if he goes or at least announces some sort of transition, sponsors will come back. is that how it works, do you think? >> absolutely. l.a. loves the clippers. they love that we have this winning basketball team that was never a winning basketball team. we love the players. we love everything. it's like cutting off a malignant body part. that would save the rest of it. >> terence, do you think that the players can force anybody's hand or is this up to the nba at this point? >> one of the dirty little secrets is that the players have always had more power than they've known. it's like dorothy in the wizard of oz with the ruby slippers. you take a situation where yesterday they had kevin johnson, the former l.a. all-star and now the mayor of sacramento giving out the list of demands and current impromptu current association head, great demands that he wants the nba to use to try to get rid of donald sterling or just to keep him in check. they

mr. buffett. >> howard buffett, his son, is the board of directors. whether it's proper to have mr. kent on the board of shareholders whether there's a conflict of issue when it comes to management compensation. >> our board strongly believes a combined chair and ceo is the right structure for our company and it's important to note that compensation committee sets the compensation for our company. so, the compensation committee is comprised entirely of independent directors. so, there is not a conflict of interest for having a combined chair/ceo role. >> have you ever looked in to the possibility? i mean, have you ever done due diligence on a corporate governance side about whether this makes the most sense? >> we don't think there's one size fits all for every company. for our company it is the right structure. and we think it's in the board's discretion to determine what is the right thing for the company. >> all right. well, thanks for going through some of the numbers. just for those who are watching and who are outraged at general ceo compensatio

mr. williams, thank you for the howard university reference, at alumnus, i definitely appreciate that to the entire panel, i'm very deeply -- discussion well-time and worth having. from the middle passage to the slavepan plantations to the civil right moms, i want you all to kind of elaborate on -- compare and contrast the civil rights movement to the 99% movement we see today. >> well, there's a lot there. my book emphasizes what happens between the days dr. king was hot and goes through five episodes, and i think what emerges, particularly in one of my chapters about the humphrey hawkins full employment act of 1978, which was big disappointment to the people who pushed it at the time. but coretta king and others, jesse jackson was actually very prominent live involved in that one -- many people put back the old labor liberal, as the term meant back then, labor liberal, civil rights, grassroots alliance and got people out on the streets not only or dr. king's birthday but on dr. ding's birthday emphatically emphasizing the issue for four or five years until the law was enacted. and ever

mr. president. my name is christopher and i live at 6th and howard. i rise to comment on last week's climate report from the united nations. reporters and analyst characterized this report as or the consequences as horrible and horrendous. i think it's pacifying. within 50 years, billions of people will die prematurely if we don't fix this problem permanently within 20 years. the reality is that no solutions offered by any one else will do anything more than slow the rate of growth of carbon up load. they would never bring that rate of growth to zero much less deal with the over load we've already got. and they would need everyone to get a new house, a new car, and new power plant and new air planes. that's a lot of new stuff. it just won't happen. the reality is the most comfortable solution is more trees, all you need from more trees is fresh water and all you need for more fresh water is more carbon free energy. remember, free energy, free water, new trees and if i could get the overhead, please. this will fit as i didn't get it last week. thank yo

mr. williams i thank you for the howard university reference. as an alumnus i appreciate that. to the entire panel the discussion is well-timed and recapping. for the bill passage to the slave plantations to the civil rights movement. i want you all to elaborate on comparing and contrasting the civil rights movement to the 99% movement that we see today. >> well, there is a lot there. [laughter] my book emphasizes what happens between the day dr. king was shot and goes to five episodes. i think what emerges is that particularly in one of my chapters is the humphrey-hawkins full employment act of 1978 which is really a big disappointment to the people that pushed it at the time. coretta king and others, jesse jackson was very prominently involved in not one, many people put back the old labor liberal as the term meant back then. labor liberal civil-rights grassroots alliance and got people out on the streets not only on dr. king's birthday but on dr. king's birthday emphatically emphasizing this issue for four or five years depending on how you counted until the law was enacted.

mrs. obama will take them are around howard university and talk about the importance of higher education. they will stay on campus with students from the chicago area. >> the vice-president is helping democratic candidates. he made his the debut yesterday or instagram. he posted this picture yesterday. he said thanks for following, stay tuned. look at those big smiles they have going on. >> lots of teeth. >> it's all about ankle. the right ankle makes the picture. >> that's the first selfie with two men. >> you just feel lonely without the other males here today. >> we don't do that. talking about temperatures today are mild. 44 right now in downers grove. in gary it is 44. hillside at 43. we've: numbers elsewhere. this morning you might need to have your coat. if you want it this afternoon will make 60 degrees. very light sprinkles. much of that is not hitting the ground near kenosha. there is cloud cover across the area. expect considerable cloud cover to the day with the chance of a shower. that could develop tonight. 59 tonight. 39 tonight. a fairly nice weekend we make 70 on easter s

joining us to talk more about that is howard dean, former governor of vermont and advocate for universal health care. mrn, thank you so much for coming on the program to talk about this. you know, now that we know more about what doctors are getting paid do you think this is the beginning of a game change or change movement between how physicians, how patients, how regulators all react with one another? >> i do think so although this is not the beginning, this has been going on for a long time but this is a major milestone. one of the big problems in health care is lack of transparency, and the costs out of control, exceeding the rate of inflation every single year for 30 years. so transparency is the first step to try to determine what is the matter with the system. these figures are in some ways shocking. and now we're going to drill down on those figures and find out what those folks are getting paid, why they're getting paid and whether the care is worth it. now only on behalf of the government but the american people. >> and it goes to the heart of what is described as fee for service medicine. doc

you know howard is very detailed. i said, hello mr. pod calling the kettle black. were at a wedding. who's wedding? we were at a wedding. >> at a friend's wedding. >> okay. >> that would be george and melody. we're sitting at the table. go ahead. >> i started talking with about t tea. i was telling you about a tea i was brinking, a certain brand. >> wrong brand. >> and you said have i got a tea for you. you sent tea to my room and the next day i was like, oh, my god. this tea is so good. >> and you tweeted it. >> and i told you i mix my own blends of different things. >> but it was so authentic. she loves tea. >> from beginning to end. >> that's how it all started. >> oprah the tea maker. >> well, i'm not the tea maker except i have my own ideas what tea should look like. this this is now my idea what tea should taste like. and howard said why don't you come to starbucks. and we have teaologists there. he said you don't just want teavana. yes, you did. you did. you said, you know, i just bought teavana. i own a tea company. we know a few things about tea, oprah win

mr. sterling. >> and just in terms of the message that it sends, howard and what it means for financial vulnerabilityba and the reputation, and how important is what is done today, and what decision is made here? >> well, chris, it is hugely important. understand that the nba is a business first and foremost, and multi billion dollar business threatened by the sponsors leaving. so far, it is a local issue. if adam silver does not act harshly enough, perceptually, other teams will get involve and it is a national issue. it is a malignancy that has to be excised so that the rest of the team and the nba can be saved. >> michael, what do you think that we will see from the game tonight and from the fans? >> well, look, mark jackson, the coach of the opposing team, the golden state warriors said that he is a fan of basketball, and if he were a fan, he would boycott it, and stay away. if the coach of the opposing team has said that, he has put his own concern as a human being above his concern as a basketball player. i think that the fans will be quite mixed. they want to support the team, because they rep

mr. duffey. >> good evening, commissioners duo i don't have too much to input but speak about the complaint we received we received a permit for the concrete creating hazardous dust it was assigned to howard on 27 of january 14th and his not i'm going off the ipad the case was investigated and it was found after research it was determined that the contractor had a department of public contract and the case was closed. he didn't know if they were working without a permit but when he saw the jackhammer he thought it started with the neighborhoods but when we can be it was a public health department issue so as far as i know there's no violation and it's closed. i don't see that on the system but not to say we issued a notice of violation we heard earlier >> okay. mr. duffey. in the event that there was a lot of discussion about the native of excavation in an urban setting if the foundation of the vertical club in the excavation and it was disclosed it's going to be above the foundation what would the building department require >> we come across across a lot of this in san francisco because the permit appellant during the project will need to contact the neighboring contractors to bring the

this is the first time that howard elementary has ever won grand champion, and congratulations and keep on reading. thank you, mr. speaker. and i yield back the balance of my time. the speaker pro tempore: pursuant to clause 12-a of rule 1, the chair declares the house in recess >> during this month c-span is pleased to present our winning entries in this year's student cam video documentary competition. student cam is c-span's annual competition that encourages middle and high school students to think critically about issues. students were asked to create their video answering the question -- what's the most important issue the u.s. congress should consider in 2014? one of our second prize winners is mcclinly laird, a junior from oklahoma. she believes congress should consider the issue of illegal immigration. >> forehand, show the forehand. ok. >> since the age of 8 i have been passionate about tennis. i have a high national ranking and i won a state championship. i could not be as good as i am today without the help of my coaches because my most recent coach is from arbegin tina, i became interested of the im

did at the sixth and howard the fulton is going into the ground we're not waiting because the clock is ticking and the other thing i want to note there are more than 24 projects mr. there are 33 or 34 of them. the idea there's cushion there if small business something is not feasible or is happening to delay the project we want a deep list >> are you talking about the temporary bib outs and the - >> i'm going the track links through the intersection for one. >> a couple of questions on some of the streets your proposing that don't have funding do you have a sense of what the funds will look like to make that happen. >> the raised on upper market is a wild card we're interested in working with dpw to have them help us just like for speed bumps i think that's a relatively small amount of money $50,000 to get the design started the term conditions on market street are a little bit different i think it's $2.2 million to do that work but that's a project that's in the virtual phase. >> i think, you know, it doesn't have to be obviously in today's presentation to insure that the 24 projects are going to go through. and, of course, we don't want to see the project we'r
