but mr. tom said we - i don't see how we can pit sanctions on the jobs to keep employees on your jobs and that might include jobs. we want to find a difference. we expect contracts to hire apprenticess and keeping them beyond the time they need them >> i release appreciate the internship part especially for kids after graduation. i was wondering as part of those internships will they be paid are is it just for experience and a i'm not really the person you have to direct the question to i have no control over the apprenticeship program >> so commissioner i can address that. historically they pay the auto mechanics and the bio techs there's a rate it's fixed by our academic group and there's the ones who pit together the plan and administer it. we'll fold it into our construction effort but i think historically all interims receive payment. i wanted to know a speaker said that there were only 3 jobs on the 2011 bond on the revenue bond how many are under one million >> there are a variety of proje

so mr. tom, i just also want to make it clear that at the last meeting you specifically asked the board so this is for the 7 trades; right? and we said, yes to you so i understand why this is written in here you asked specifically. today, we find ourselves with a different prospective. it's not you doing it on your own. so i think that because we heard from the labor council representing many of our labor partners and we also i would also like to see it by trades. some of our sanctions allow them to do jobs. so if you can't comply with the job an sf gov. job you can hire someone on to our bigger city jobs. so the off-ramp is something that's doable. the more we expand the trades for a local residencecy remit our young people may want to be a landscape motorbikes worker are repair are things of that nature or awe by itself abatement because it's danger. so i just feel like the more we open it because i think this spirit of this was to open up opportunities for our students. now i have a suggestio

so on page one mr. tom do you see it the requested action just read that short paragraph >> that the board of education adopt the attached local policy for 2013 proposition a facilitate bond that is executed project labor agreement. >> thank you. new what we will do is hear from our public speakers we have a number signed up to speak on this item. you will have 2 minutes each. as i read your names line up along the wall right there (calling names) >> well my name is willie ratting cliff if anybody don't know me. anyway we'll come down to the final local act of what we've been trying to do for over a year. i met with the previously superintendent along with the present superintendent for over a year ago about this problem. that we have. and anytime a discriminatory practice you're supposed to deal with it. i'm not satisfied with what i see. and we can always move forward after what you do tonight i'm hoping that someone o some of the things that others will bring up because i don't have the time. will bring

today and so it is my great pleasure to welcome to the podium the chairman of the board of directors, mr. tom noland. >> thank you, i could listen to him introduce me all day long. on behalf of the board i am delighted to be here this is a huge day for us and it has been a long, hard struggle. a number of people have been mentioned but there are some who are supportive who have not been mentioned one is former mayor and congressman, and of the dot, norman who was instrumental way back years ago. and our current dot director ray lahood and i want to call a special shout out to former member of our board who has been a supporter of this project for many years, will (inaudible), thank you. thank you, will. and steadfast support. and this is truly been a labor of love for the board and critics along the way and i am totally convinced, absolutely convinced that when this is opened, everybody will realize this was totally worth while and all of the struggles forward and a lng time coming and great leadership. and he and his team and we appreciate that and we are it marks the beginning and i am look

still on the arts commission, because the only thing that i have gotten from the executive director mr. tom decaney is that they talked to him. i don't think that they would have had to talk to him to have him know that he is not allowed to be abusive to someone who was getting up and making legitimate public comments and i don't think that anybody who would do that in public and fail to apologize in public lacks a certain level of integrity. >> and any further public comment on this matter? >> if not, commissioners any further questions or comments? >> well, i just wanted... and for those who are more experienced with this, one i see that we write at least for the staff says that we have never taken up this specific waiver. >> yes. >> and as i read it, is says that the ethics commission may waiver for any officer who must be appointed represented in the profession, it seems to me that for as much as i have an understanding of it, it falls squarely within it and as we talk about it, i would want to hear, reasons why we would and then reasons why we would not. and is there something extraord

mr. president, tom perez is an extraordinary nominee to serve as secretary of labor, and i hope the senate will overwhelmingly confirm him to this vital position. mr. president, this is not the first time this body has considered mr. perez's qualifications. in october of 2009, in a bipartisan 72-22 vote, the senate confirmed mr. perez to serve as assistant attorney general for civil rights. in more than three and a half years in that position, mr. perez has skillfully and vigorously enforced our nation's civil rights laws, has revitalized the civil rights division. as has been documented by numerous inspectors general and office of professional responsibility reports as well as congressional investigations, the bush administration had decimated the civil rights division, failed to properly enforce our most critical civil rights laws and politicized hiring and decision making. that has changed dramatically under mr. perez. as attorney general holder has said, mr. perez made it clear from the moment he was confirmed that the civil praoeuts -- rights division was -- and i quote -- "once again

mr. tomorrow tom doherty. thank you for joining me. the story is worse than i laid out.was a co-worker, they were both arrested, and she was counseled to say that it was consensual and then they locked her up and he went home to his wife and three children. dubai with its beautiful sky scrapers, shopping malls and they still adhere to many strict muslim laws. if a woman can't report a rape without being put in jail, karen, how is this a developed society? >> it's not. and i think what you just laid out--they mimic our entertainment and great hotels, hospitality and they're really trying to be western but they forgot the one tenant which is civil rights and freedom, which is what we here have adhere to. i think it's interesting, too the activism that you saw here with gloria steinman, there doesn't seem to be a lot of that in the middle east. >> john: not yet. >> well, they get killed. >> john: well, they do, but tommy, let me bring you into this. doesn't capitalism itself guarantee that the world is getting smaller and it will be harder and harder to have oppressive regi

mr. -- congratulations. >> thank you. tom. i wanted to share the story of how i became the manager of the soft story program. about two weeks ago tom asked me to go to lunch and he said, i want to you work on the soft story program. he said it's not a lot of work. it's not true. tom said you can do it part-time in addition to all the work you are doing and that's not true at all. what convinced me is he said you would never have to appear before the building commission. that's next week. >> every week. >> actually i paid for his lunch too. anyway, since that lunch date we've been working very hard on the program. within 90 days we have to send out notifications of the building owners of soft story buildings. which is over 6,000. you will get a letter from us if it's constructed -- along with the notification we'll be sending out a screening form. the screening form we want an engineer and architect to fill it out and returned within one year. depending on how you fill out the form we'll put you in a tier. we want to you submit

mr. hart. >> good evening supervisors. tom hart on behalf of will market street known as market square. certainly when i came here today people asked me "what are you here for?" and i said formula retail and "you're going to oppose it?" . no, we support it. we applaud the efforts of supervisor kim and trying to balance the needs of the residential community there and the workers in the area, and also trying to reserve those small business owners and operators that are existing there. we understand that. fortunately in our situation we are not displacing anyone, but i am proud to tell you that we have at least over half of our square footage on the ground floor there on market square two local operators that have one or two operations and by no means are approaching formula retail, so it's our intent to continue that, and we're very proud to join with the community in that effort, and again applaud you supervisors for helping make that area of the city more vibrant and to be a new district, and thank you very much. >> thank you. mr. lazarus. >> supervisors, jim lazarus, san francisco cha

mr. sanders: let me begin by concurring with the remarks of senator cardin. tomperez will make an excellent secretary of labor, and i strongly support his nomination. mr. president, it is no great secret that the united states congress is currently held in very low esteem by the american people, and there are a lost reasons for that. but i think that the major reason perhaps in the midst of so many serious problems facing our country, the american people perceive that we are just not addressing those issues, and they are right. regardless of what yo your political point of view may be, we're looking at a middle class that is disappearing. are we addressing that issue? no. poverty is just extraordinarily high. are we moving aggressively to address that? no, we're not. we have the most expensive health care system in the world, enormously bureaucratic and wasteful. are we addressing in a? no, we're not. but the issue that i want to talk about today may b maybe moe clearly than any other issue in tesms our neglect is the -- in terms of our neglect is the issue of gl

i want to thank tom for being here as well. mr. cruise. >> thank you. i'm with the public utilities commission. i want to after you've heard with dp w we support their work. i'd like to go through today why we flood and what we're doing long-term to prevent the flooding. san francisco has what we call a combined sewer system we capture both the typical sewer system as well as storm water into one correction and treat it at one location. this particular system has environmental benefits we catch 1 hundred percent of the rainfall and treat it as long as we can handle the volume. this is very rare many in the country do have this. to give you a sense of the capacitate we have in a storm where we had full capacity we'll handle 5 hundred and 55 million gallons of water a day. and when we exceed that capacity we can store many, many more millions of gallons of water. so we exceed 5 hundred and 72 millions of gallons of water in one storm. overall we have our ocean >> treatment plant that plant handle 65 million gallons of water. on the bay side that's a wet w

let's turn to tom petrie. mr. petrie, welcome to the show.evening. >> thanks, scott. >> it's always easy i guess after tragedies like this to say it's too dangerous to transport crude by rail but do the facts bear that out? >> you make a very good point. this is a true tragedy. it's a freak accident, but in fact, the record of railroads over the last decade has been spectacular. every year further improvement in safety. i think there will be actions taken to make sure this kind of accident doesn't happen again. there's a roll for transport of oil on an on going basis. this is the biggest surprise in the over in the north american supply for oil in the last decade. it's a major plus. >> you think pictures like this on television, the headlines and photos and newspapers could help shape public opinion in the debate between pipeline versus rail transportation. would you agree? >> absolutely. there's a role for both. pipe lines are good for going from point a to b. the rail delivery, the surprise is how much it's been embraced by shipping compani

tom kinney who was on mr. show is the voice of sponge bob. scott on mr. show has been on 30 rock since the very begin. obviously you were on arrested development and some of the other stuff that you've done. go back before that to when you were playing catch a rising star and other clubs you were coming up with say have silverman and louie ck. and the ben stiller program, where you met odom kirk. seems like everybody now has found a place in more mainstream culture which i think is an interesting evolution. >> yeah. it makes sense, i suppose. as we got older, there is no alternative scene anymore. it just doesn't exist. and even -- >> what do you mean by that? >> well, the idea of we bristled at the concept of alternative comedy. it was an easy, sort of lazy shortcut to decide what we were worth, but not necessarily what we were. but now that is comedy. that's the mainstream of comedy. >> louie ck is in some ways, he is in some ways the epitome of the new mainstream in that he's now just really broken out as this enormous store although he's an overnight

mr. rick unger the wonderful tom doorty, and author comedian jeff krisler.ank you for being here. horrible mistakes. is that like calling the ruling peevish. >> when it happens twice he's admitting it's wrong. and i'm starting to think as a new york city resident maybe he should be mayor. he can't be trusted with all this time on his hands. >> and he has other things on his hands too. >> that's true. >> john: i don't think we're picking you up on mic, we'll have to go and get your mic fixed up. let me ask you this while jeff is wired for us. is huma abedin right on this level, that it is between her and her husband and it's none of our business? >> it is from the standpoint if she wants to stay married to him. that's between the two of him. but to think-- >> john: there are those who have committed much worse sins, and they worked it out in marriage. >> that's why i say what happens between the two of them that's up to them. he apologized for doing these terrible things and then he continues to do them. while his wife is pregnant with their child. >> john: n

mr. west allowed tom perez to take control of the civil division in order to cut this deal that saved mr. perez's favored legal theory referred to as the desperate impact theory. as i've discussed previously, mr. perez was concerned that the supreme court was going to strike down this theory as unconstitutional. in doing so, the department undercut a viable -- viable case against st. paul, and in the process left the whistle-blower who filed the suit to fight the city on behalf of the american taxpayers all alone, left him out there twisting in the wind. and this is not how i expect the department to treat good-faith whistle-blowers. they're patriotic people, they're people that probably destroyed their opportunity of livelihood because they know something's wrong and they want to report it, just like patriotic people ought to do. in fact, i believe it is contrary to the assurances that mr. west gave me during his confirmation hearing in 2009 when he indicated he would protect whistle-blowers and vigorously enforce the false claims act, because let nobody nobody -- let everybody understan

mr. president, tom perez has dedicated his professional life to making sure that every american has a fairortunity to pursue the american dream. most recently, as the assistant attorney general for civil rights at the department of justice, he has been a voice for the most vulnerable and he has reinvigorated the enforcement of some of our most critical, our most critical civil rights laws. he has helped more americans achieve the dream of homeownership through his unprecedented efforts to prevent residential lending discrimination. he has stepped up the department of justice efforts to protect the employment rights of service members so that our men and women in uniform can return to their jobs and support their families after serving their country. as the senate author of the americans with disabilities act, i am particularly pleased with mr. perez's long history of leadership on the history of civil rights issues. while at the department of justice, he has helped ensure that people with disabilities have the choice to live in their own homes and communities rather than only in institutio

that is tom cole, chairman of the republican campaign committee, mr. speaker. past this you will not do this, i will not do that, and figure out what we will do, i say to my friend, the majority leader, and we have 14 days to do it. we have not gotten it done yet, and frankly we have nothing on the calendar for next week that shows we are moving toward that and. i would hope very sincerely that we could come to agreement, and we were not come to agreement on something that was so hard fought for the last five. we know that. we know you will not raise taxes. but the fact of the matter is we need to come to an agreement. americans expect us to come to agreement. with so few legislative days remaining before the fiscal year ends and the fact that we must address it, i hope the gentleman will give clarity as to what will be addressed in september, the nine days, since we are so far off course from regular order on the budget and appropriations schedule. can members expect to see a c.r. and does the gentleman have any idea what the c.r. will look like, what it will

enough to actually eat well, another, of many moving scenes captured by kathy hughes and tom, the producers is when mrs. newman, terry newman, marvelous mother and devoted wife has to go to the food pantry to find food. you know, there are 49 million people in this country on food stamps. and many of them as we showed in our broadcast broadcast last week include a cop working in a small town in colorado, the town cut the budget and he's lost three of his troops, of his fellow policeman. he's the seoul remaining policeman. his salary has been cut. he runs out of money for food by halfway through the month. a cowboy does two jobs, a cowboy at day and cleaning up the school at night. he's on food stamps to feed his children. >> rose: another impact is the husband and wife are work at different times so they never see each other. >> and you can tell this in the consequences on the family. and as their need for security and for-- and for the presence of their parents increases, so does the deterioration of the neighborhood. in in and in both neighborhoods you see violence coming, bullying happening. and so

mr. speaker. in addition i expect to consider h.r. 2610, the fiscal year 2014 transportation, housing, and urban development appropriations act authored by representative tom latham. mr. speaker, members are advised that the house will begin consideration of this bill on tuesday afternoon and should be prepared to offer amendments at that appropriate time in the reading of the bill. members are further advised that the 6:30 p.m. vote series that day could be longer than normal. for the remainder of the week, mr. speaker, the house will consider a number of bills to restrain a run away government and reempower our citizens. to stop government abuse and protect the middle class, we will first bring a number of bipartisan bills to the floor under suspension of the rules on wednesday. following that, we will debate two bills pursuant to rules focusing again on stopping government abuse and protecting the middle class. the first, h.r. 367, the rains act, sponsored by representative todd young, requires congressional approval of regulation that costs over $100 million. the second, h.r. 2009, the keep i.r.s. off your health care act, sponsored by representative t
