mr. harris, the new schools in new york are quite exciting. i could not help but wonder who are the teachers and where did they come from? were they existing teachers that were there? where did the teachers come from? do you keep them? do you have control? i found steve barr's observation that 40% of the teachers in the high school returned. i think well, that is a lot and i think 60% don't want to be there, so if you could talk about that selection you seem to be tapping into. if we could start with dr. peiffer and mr. harris. >> i would agree highly qualified teachers are not exactly affected. when we look at all the statistics, our concentration of teachers without adequate training are showing up in large numbers in urban districts, and schools that are very low- performing. we have made a lot of headway on that, but it is a start. the issue of being able to help teachers be effective, we are trying to help local school systems -- we are not in a position of measuring this. i am hoping to launch data systems that will help us do that in th

mr. harris, good morning. >> reporter: good . >> good morning. >> did roman polanski live in fear?o. certainly not that i've seen. i've been working with him pretty continuously for three years. and he traveled very freely back and forth between france and switzerland. he has a house in switzerland, which is why it seems so astonishing when he was actually picked up at the airport on saturday night because he could have been picked up at anytime if they wanted to do so. >> so he was not cautious about his movements? >> no not at all. i've known him go off in the last year or two all over the world to china, to egypt, to greece. "the ghost" finished shooting this year. about he spent three months in germany. >> what was his attitude toward all of this, toward this case this incident that happened some 30 years ago? >> well, you know he has young children of his own now to whom he's devoted. i think he's embarrassed about it for them. i would imagine that he is. when this hbo documentary, roman polanski wanted and desired, came out last year i think he thought it was a turning point

mr. harries,s. elder, and mr. barr to answer. whether you work in a school system or a school, are there specific things about no child left behind that you've qeen be effective that we need to make sure that we recommend continue? are there specic things that we should recommend go away? and part three more broadly, are there other new ideas about how we should organize the strategies, think outside of the box, other ways that the federal government should use its incentives and disincentives at would help you be more successful creating better outcomes for kids. mr. harryies? >> sure. thank you, greg. i think it's an astute questio to what i spoke to earlier. i agree with what mr. barr said earlier. there is a convergence of tribes around a common set of issues of what makes a good school and what some of the components of that are, leadership, parent involvement, focus, size. a set of this that create strong school organizations. and i wld say that most of nclb is not set up with that frame in mind. instead policymaking, fundi

senator majority leader harry reid is right behind him. mr. obama will work the aisles as presidents always do. george w. bush loved working the aisles and basking in the adulation. there's no reason why president obama shouldn't operate the same way. in front of him, of course, is the sergeant of arms who announced his coming into the chamber. let us just watch some more. you may recognize some of the faces and maybe your own congressman or congresswoman. let's just listen to the applause and the adulation as the president makes his way to the podium. . >> that's congressman wexler of florida you just saw. this is, of course, a hugely important speech for mr. obama. he called it himself for a special joint session. he requested it about a week ago. his health care plan has had a difficult summer. declining polls would suggest that among independents and seniors. of course, the town hall meetings, controversial as they are did stir the pot for more unrest. people are asking many, many different questions. not only about the health care plan it

house passed a bill to cut emissions but harry reid has indicated the senate is unlikely to take up any such legislation at any time this year, so mr. obama will have to tread carefully on what he says the u.s. is willing to do. >> he is going to have to be realistic. he is not going to lay down specific numbers because congress hasn't delivered that to him yet, but there's a lot that he can make very clear to the west of to the rest of the world. >> i think a lot of senators are wary about moving forward with anything. energy rationing is not popular at a time when we have 10% unemployment and the prices of things are going up without government action. >> the houseman, authored by congressman edward markey and henry waxman and supported by mr. owe obama would reduce emissions to something called cap and trade, a cap on the amount of carbon emissions allowed each year, which would shrink by 2% each year, which means using less coal and turning to more expensive energy. there is controversy abroad as well, among the three big international blocs, the u.s., europeans an developing countries. >> and therefore, it's very difficult to
