and i was trying to get clarification on whether or not they qualified, i went and i visited with mr. barry. and i looked at the space, and you know, i had questions about, you know, occupancy and safety, and egress. and he as the commissioner already told you. had already been having events. and was seen by an inspector and so it was told to come into compliance. and so i, i asked him, that in the meantime, while we are waiting for this hearing date to comply with the conditions that are not set forth yet because that will only be in his best interest. that is to say that if you were going to hold events up to this date that he do it until ten p.m. and not exceed that. and not-to-exceed his capacity which i believe is 49 and those sorts of things and he voluntarily, you know, has done that. he emailed me events. and i completely believe that this man is going to play by the rules and i just for my own knowledge, i just sometimes i am unclear as to who gets hes permit and who does not, it is not a question for me of whether or not mr. ward will play within the guidelines of the permit. beca

mr. larson: both steny and rich have said it well. everything that's rich about public service is embodied in the service provided by barry sullivan. as rich pointed out, to have come here with tip and joe, puts you in the stars of new england. i would point out to mr. capuano, rich neal is not only the dean of the massachusetts delegation but the dean of the new england delegation and barry sullivan is new england through and through. he's irish, he's catholic, he's red sox, celtic, bruin and patriots and he gets us through the day. my first encounter with him came over in the pennsylvania corner where he would be summoned on a regular basis. i thought he was jack murta's personal valet. i didn't know there was a white button that they would press but he would appear out of the back room and would assure mr. murtha things would be right. what time we would get out of here and all the essentials that members need. the wonderful thing about barry, his three sons and barbara is that he apit mieses class. he is such a gentleman, even among the most tense of situations, he's there for all of us, most notably to remind you to vote and st

mr. president, before the leader leaves the floor, and i was hoping to do this before the chaplain of the senate, barry black, left. i had a horrible loss eight days ago, losing a son. and it was so touching to me, and i want to thank barry black, who included a good bit of some things about my son and about me in his opening prayer. and also the comments that were made, the very gentle comments were very helpful, were made by the majority leader. so i would like to through the chair thank harry reid very much for the comments he made. mr. president, we have something coming up that we're going to be talking about this week, and i'm a little disturbed because i don't know exactly when it's going to be coming up. i don't know how many objections there are going to be. i just know that there are some people who would want to use this since it is a must-pass bill. this is the national defense authorization act. we passed it every year for, i think, 51 years. we've never failed to pass it. this is not going to be the first year that we fail to pass it. but i'm hoping that our members will recognize how sig

barry. first of all, why? some of these ipos have done so unbelievably well, and on top of it they're good companies. >> mr.ainst any company in particular. but if you look back at the history of ipos, generally the first year they do not do well. one of the things we like to look at are companies buying back shares of their company, those are good bias. those that are issuing new shares tend to dilute themselves and don't go up very much. when is the big withest issuance of shares? on the initial public offering. a company like facebook, for instance, a lot of hype about it. fell dramatically the first year, but after the first year, that was the time to buy it, and it did exceedingly well. not to say none of these aren't going to do well, but i don't like to jump in on ipos at all. liz: i think that's smart advice because it can be awfully volatile. that said, the broader market has looked incredibly good. today we have a very nice rally. we're above 16,000, we could close in nine minutes above 16,000 for the very first time. does that mean that you feel that by the end of the year -- and there are only,

barry black, our chaplain. today our special guest is my pastor, gregory knox james from westminster presbyterian church. our leader, harry reid, mr president, has run a number of marathons. so has our guest. he's a long distance runner literally and figuratively. he ran his tenth marathon, the new york marathon on sunday, had good time. i'd like to say, mr. leader, he won the category, white men over 50 who pastor large presbyterian churches on the east coast and were former team captains for kansas state university football team, that category he won hands down. i congratulate him and i'm sure our colleagues do as well. he reminds us every sunday of the idea that we have a moral i imperative to look out for the least of these in our society, people who are hungry, need to be fed, people who have no place to live, people who have no health care, we have an obligation to look out for them. we have not just an obligation to look out for those in our community but way beyond our borders like those in kilowatt mall la, those -- like guatamala, those who live in israel, the west bank of jordan. he reminds us every sunday of the golden

barry linden. he's currently waiting for an organ transplant. but because of obamacare, his health insurance policy is being canceled, which could jeopardize his ability to access that transplant. as mr. linden writes, losing his health care plan, "is a potential life-ending tragedy for me and my family. thcreates a variety of complaiks including my transplantation and team." the most troubling thing is that insurance will have to recertify my transplant. in other words, he'll have to start all over again. meanwhile, i've also heard from another constituent in lubbock, texas, whose 13-year-old daughter has type 1 diabetes. she'she is had itshe's had it s. their family is happy with their policy. because of obamacare they were recently notified that their daughter's health insurance is being canceled in december. stories like this, mr. president, are simply infuriating, and they're unnecessary. but they should strengthen our resolve to dismantle obamacare entirely and replace it with patient-centered alternatives. i yield the floor. mr. thune: mr. president, the news out of south dakota is like it is everywhere else. it is all bad, cancellation notices and sticker shock that families,
