the district judge mr ross case was rightly simple a former attorney who worked at the law firm that represents monsanto and who is listed as one of month sanders attorneys in one thousand nine hundred ninety seven class action lawsuit. from two thousand to two thousand and eight rodney said who was the judge in eleven cases of which monsanto was the plaintiff or defendant eleven cases were ruled in monsanto's favor. i found that the original research grants came from the new york foundation and that was the rockefeller foundation and that they had spent over one hundred million dollars of their foundation money to finance scientists around the world to do research to genetically modified some of the basic food seeds and they're going to trade on the animal subject and the more i researched and of this the more i found that three maybe four companies if you include the swiss i'm going to go up to three main companies and one among them was dominant and that's monsanto but these are what i call in the book the four horsemen of the apocalypse these private seed companies they were orig

health and environmental safety coincidentally the judge was rightly simple the same judge as in mr ross case by case was ruled in favor of the chemical companies. gene in my field was a paid intense monsanto gene which was sold to me in seeds by as a girl which is a monsanto subsidiary i agreed to take part in a class action lawsuit in the united states so in two thousand i went to washington d.c. to testify and to answer the questions asked by monsanto's lawyers told a they asked questions such as do you know your neighbors names how much tax do you pay and where nothing to do with g.m. seeds. tended to meetings at the ministry of agriculture recently during which they tried to impose on us a bill for a ministerial order for coexistence determining a twenty five yard distance between two fields of corn. that means that my neighbor g.m. crops twenty five yards away from my field and yes we officially proved in two thousand and six and two thousand and seven that land three hundred yards away was contaminated. maybe there's not much organic corn today. maybe there is someone with five ac

smith: the gentleman from arkansas, mr. ross. the chair: the gentleman from arkansas is recognized for one minute. mr. ross: thank you, mr. chairman. i rise today in strong support of h.r. 822. if you get a driver's license in arkansas, it's recognized in every state in the country. and if you have a conceal carry permit, the same rules should apply. our second amount rights to own and bear arms are universal, and our laws should reflect that as best they can. the national right to carry reciprocity act would allow every american citizen with a valid concealed carry permit to carry a concealed firearm in all states that allow them for lawful purposes. let me be clear, if your state bans concealed firearms, then this law will not affect that ban. this bill does not change any state laws about when and where you can carry a concealed firearm. this bill does not create a new federal licensing system. it simply reinforces our second amendment rights and makes the laws more fair for law-abiding gun owners. as a strong supporter of the

mr. ross: thank you mr. chairman an thank you for bringing forth this most necessary legislation. i rise in support of house resolution 3094. simply put the national labor relations board has lost all credibility. from its anti-american attack on boeing to its inability to allow delta employees to choose their own labor future, the nlrb has become nothing more than a taxpayer funded big payer advocate. this act is just what it says it is, legislation that if passed will enshrine the rights of workers to both information and choice, two things my friends on the other side of the aisle believe in as well. what's truly sad is that taxpayers already living under the exploding debt are paying the salaries of nlrb attorneys and administrators to ship jobs overseas. the proposed rule requiring lech be held in as little as 10 days gives workers virtually no opportunity to inform themselves about their right, show how radical this nlrb has become, we must ask ourselves when, in the history of this great republic, has shortening the time for an election been considered more fair? we hear me

mr. cain, lee ross with fox news. you made several mentions of machine, the democratic machine.re these people? who is involved in this? is it a conspiracy? >> i cannot -- i cannot say that it is a conspiracy. we do not have definitive, factual proof. we can only look at some coincidences to suggest it that maybe someone is deliberately behind this. we have not been able to make any determination to point any fingers or place any blame on anybody at this point. when we step back and look at the fact that there's no facts, no factual evidence to back these up, we can only infer that someone is trying to basically wreck my character and like the other gentlemen alluded to, plant doubt in the minds of a lot of people who are going to go to the polls and vote. >> last night on the "jimmy kimmel show" they said they were raising so much money since the sexual harassment allegations were made public, that if other republican candidates for president were smart, they would hire women to make similar accusations, which is hilarious. but that was late night. joking around time. today it

mr. ross, do you yield? >> [inaudible]. >> one minute? >> thank you, mr. chairman and i'm, i'm saddened by what we're dealing with today. i think it is way premature. i support a full and thorough investigation of solyndra and anyone else that's involved in this including the administration but the fact is the administration is cooperating with house investigators at this time. they provided more than 80,000 pages of documents. the administration in fact turned over 15,000 pages of documents to the committee this week. including 1200 pages of communication between the white house and the energy department. at a time when the american people want to see us working together and to put country before party, it seems like this is nothing more than a political gimmick because the reality is the administration is working with this committee. should it stop then i would support this but at this time, there are fully participating, and cooperating and, i think the investigation should continue and it should include anyone with any knowledge about any of this and l

mr. average joe? >> but something about ross puzzled malchik. >> so i would ask him, where did he live before he movedved in the town of brooklyn, and that's where i knew that two other murders in that area had occurred. >> malchik asked ross what he remembered about the day wendy baribeault disappeared and discovered a surprising lapse in his recollection. >> he said who he had breakfast with, where he went, who he saw at lunch, who he saw at work, who he spoke to at work, then he was supposed to meet some friends of his on route 12, pick up some paper supplies and have coffee. and this is at 4:00. i said, well, what happened after 4:00, and all of a sudden his mind went blank, and we knew that's when wendy baribeault had last been seen was about 4:30 on that day, on route 12. he placed himself going right by there by his own time frame, plus, he couldn't describe, really remember, he had a loss of memory at that point, which i thought was unusual. and at that point, we were probably maybe an hour into a conversation, and i asked him if he would come with us down to our command post. >> although he w

mr. mayor. we're looking forward to work with you to make this wonderful city even better. [applause] >> [speaking foreign language] i am ross mirkarimi. thank you dearly for bringing me up. i have been in office since 2005, but long before i was elected, this is a commemoration, a recognition that i am very proud to be a part of for many years, because i am iranian-american, the first iranian-american elected to office in san francisco. said there is a great affinity between our communities and one that i have not lost sight of since taking office when we were the first city hall in the united states and opening our doors for the persian new years. many in our community have celebrated together. this is not an occasion i would miss. very proud to be here.

mr. lehrer. >> guest: yeah. first of all, the debate commission just for the record here has a criteria for the candidates, and ross perot -- and the criteria have to do with how he's doing in the polls, candidate's doing in the polls. my recollection is, here again, the moderator doesn't have anything to do with this, but i think you have to be 15% or more in the polls to be considered a major candidate and make it into those debates. and that, here again, the moderator has nothing to do with that. in terms of what is a debate and what's not a debate, that's all in the eye of the beholder. my own view is, look, if you've got candidates for major office, particularly president of the united states on the same stage at the same time talking about the same thing, the format is almost irrelevant. a lot of people say, oh, my god, we've got to go back to the lincoln/douglas debates. the opening statements were an hour and a half, and each of them had an hour rebuttal. those things went on for six and seven hours. that is not, that is not my definition of a debate. and people think they know what a debate is because of i

percent while ross never finished over three and a half percent in the plot and because he backed down back from early losses going to shrink point eight percent higher. we are on there after mr go on the market short term but we are much more optimistic on the market need term so when there is any of this to on the best advice is to look for quality names that's been severely beaten down and there are you know several names like that in the russian market and i want to mention is the belief in stephen the logical plan the stock is down about twenty percent over the past two weeks and as a good quality company very transparent it's well liked by investors so we now think it's a good time to start sort of a building for system in the name and the range that we like is around sixty four sixty five roubles their share. look was just part of that night post at nine months results russia's biggest problem or for a made a net profit of nine billion euros a thirty percent increase over last year the results are down analysts forecasts which were looking for a forty four percent rise on average oil and gas output from the company slowed by nearly five percent in the reporting period

ross? >> it is the first time i have heard that, so if you want -- >> he worked for you. and alex leighton? >> if you would like, mrat and be as fulsome as possible. >> given that we are talking about private investigators, i would like to ask you now. could you also examine the activities of the private investigator barry beardall? >> i am not aware of the individual identities of private investigators that were used, but perhaps it would be helpful, mr. watson, just to clarify one of the things that the company is doing around this. the use of private investigators clearly has been, in the industry and by the news of the world, too widespread, and i have just apologized to you and to the other members of the previous committee, as it was described to me, for what was inappropriate surveillance. one of the things -- one of the key changes -- that we have put in place over the last year is that the use of private investigators, in particular, is severely restricted by the journalists at news international. in fact, no private investigator, under our new guidelines and new rules around this, can be hired or contract

mr. nugent: madam speaker, i rise today in support of this rule, house resolution 463. the rule provides for consideration to an important piece of legislation, h.r. 822. the national right to carry press ross it act of 2011. i'm proud to sponsor this rule which provides for a structured amendment process that will allow members to have a thorough debate on a wide variety of relevant and germane amendments to h.r. 822. we have allowed 10 amendments to this bill, two republican amendments, and eight democratic amendments. even as contense -- contentious bill, a bill that would be easy to shut down the process, we are not only allowing amendments, but those debated on the floor, the vast majority are democratic amendments. we did this not because it was the easy thing to do, we did it because it was the right thing to do. it brought transparency to the debate and it is in keeping with the promises of the republican party made to the american people for a freer, more open process. madam speaker, until coming to this body 10 months ago, i spent my entire career as a cop. the last 10 years of sheriff in hernando county, florida. during my 38 years in law enforcement, i found disarming honest cit
