mr. van de water, thank you so much for your presentation and updates. i just wanted to ask a question. if members of the public knew to contact someone to ask for assistance for a particular policy or accessibility concern that came up, who would they contact and is that individual apparent in your website materials? for example, in many of our events we say for accessibility questions or concerns please contact so and so at this number and email, do you have something similar in your website or your materials? >> it's a good question. i think there are a number of answers to that question. i received a question from your office about an individual looking to attend one of the concert series. and some special considerations that they would need for getting through the security line there. i directed them to live nation, who is the live vendor operating that venue in the evening and their specific security detail to let them know they were coming and also sent that to our police department. if it's transit-oriented, it would be the mta, who is coordinati

i talked to mr. van hollen. mr. ryan has not talked to mr. van hollen.espect to this discussion about talking, they're not talking. i talked to senator murray. no discussion on how we resolve the difference. i talked to the chair of the appropriations committee, the ranking member here and the chair on the senate side. nobody is talking to them about how we resolve the question at the end of next month and we won't be here at the end of next month. we are in session two weeks in september. i want to use a quote, but we should not pass a continuing resolution and i will not vote for a continuing resolution unless we talk about preconditions. for going to conference. talk about preconditions. talk about demands and ultimatums. i will not vote for a continuing resolution unless it defund obamacare. continuinge of the resolution. nobody in america believes that is going to be done. thet of people i know, majority people tell me -- the majority leader would tell me that a lot of people wanted done. the president won't sign the defunding of obamacare because h

mr. van hollen: thank you, mr. speaker. and i thank my friend from massachusetts. and i want to at the outset associate myself with the remarks of mr. mcgovern and mr. welch regarding the importance of this body having a debate and whether or not we should be sending u.s. taxpayer dollars tone gauge in support -- to engage and support the rebels in syria. this budget supports the defense democratic, it also supports the intelligence agency. so this is the time and place to have the debate about taxpayer dollars going into a civil war in syria. it's also the time and high time that we get on with passing a federal budget. we've heard a lot of talk on the floor today about the importance of supporting our military. absolutely true. but this legislation does nothing to turn off the sequester. so unless the congress comes together on a bipartisan and bicameral basis to resolve the budget, this defense appropriations bill is going to .e cut by about $48 billion just as the nondefense parts of the budget will be cut as a result of sequestration. so, i don't think the ame

for you mr. van de water and actually i have two. thank you for your presentation. caltrain to the wharf, will it go all along the embarcadero to pier 39 or whatever the last one is? >> yes, it will. so currently there are historic streetcars that go from market to the north or from market to the south. so this will be the one that will actually combine the two. we have had calls for this from various constituencies for some time now. and this is our chance to pilot it during the events. so mta has been putting into service some of the double-ended historic streetcars that can operate in both directions without a full-loop turnaround. >> now will those be running just during the event, during the america's cup event or will pilot hours be for other parts of the day or other times? >> it's currently scheduled to be piloted during the events. though, you know, as i mentioned with positive legacy, if there is a demand for that type of service, that can justify the expense of putting it into service, that is what we want to test going forward. so if there is a constitue

ok music mr van down thank you very much indeed for sharing of years of that with us now belgian journalist really down sank you again. thank you. fugitive whistleblower edward snowden reportedly still has some extremely sensitive and detail documents which are likely to be making america a little nervous they apparently relate to how the national security agency is structured and operates and for more let's not talk to russ tice former intelligence analyst and i say with some blower himself mr tyson welcome to r.c. is it actually possible for snowden to do even more harm to u.s. intelligence than he already has done or absolutely the paranormal you have. yeah let's not listen to it soon guardian journalist glenn greenwald who's been breaking the news from the cia leak a let's listen to it together. he's in possession of literally thousands of documents that contain very specific blueprints that would allow somebody who read them to know exactly how the n.s.a. does what it does which would in turn allow them either to evade that surveillance or to replicate it and that's what i was talking

mrs. van buren was attacked by congressmen ogle of pennsylvania in his famous gold spoon speech on the floor of the house, in which he talked about the royal appendages of the white house and how mrs. van buren had hoped to copy the gardens of buckingham palace back at the white house. needless to say, van buren was defeated. julia gardiner tyler followed in the style of angelica van buren. in this photograph, she appears as the first president's wife, first incumbent presidents wife, to actually be -- have her image captured on film in the early form of photography. she instituted a wild style, had imported dogs from the council at naples and rode around in a very regal horse and carriage. she redecorated the white house and, better than using government money or the money of her wealthy friends, she used her mother's money to redecorate. she was criticized by the religious press as a bad influence. on the other hand, she very skillfully used the traditional role for her husband's political p

mr. van hollen and i offered burg the national defense authorization act. we have added mr. coffman, a republican and mr. murphy, a democrat. but we made important changes to the amendment. what does the amendment do? it seeks to take the budget back down to what the pentagon asked for. the pentagon asked for $81 billion. the committee saw fit to give them $86 billion and we think letting the pentagon decide is a good basis for discussion and the basis for this amendment. there is one exception and this is where the important discussion comes in. there was some concern, mr. van hollen it was ill life founded but there was concern whether it prejudiced the national guard. we disagreed with their position. for that reason, that specific reason, there is explicit language in this amendment that ex cludes the national guard. instead of going to back down to where the pentagon asked for we are giving them what they asked for plus the $1.5 billion for the national guard. for folks who had difficult

mrs. vanren had hoped to copy the gardens of buckingham palace back at the white house. needless to say, van buren was defeated. julia gardiner tyler followed in the style of angelica van buren. appearsphotograph, she as the first president's wife, first incumbent presidents wife, to actually be -- have her image captured on film in the early form of photography. , hadnstituted a wild style imported dogs from the council at naples and rode around in a very regal horse and carriage. she redecorated the white house and, better than using government money or the money of her wealthy friends, she used her mother's money to redecorate. by the criticized religious press as a bad .nfluence on the other hand, she very skillfully used the traditional role for her husband's political purposes. she very clearly -- coyly would scribble a toast to one of her husband's enemies at a dinner -- dinner table and asked him to raise his glass to, protect this and tyler, two. -- too. by atyler was followed woman q

mr. van hollen: thank you, madam speaker. in april the international energy agency concluded that despite some progress in deploying clean energy, that the average unit of energy produced in the world today is essentially polluting as it was 20 years ago. as president obama stated at georgetown university last month, we cannot afford to slow walk our transition to a lower-carbon future. climate change and its consequences are not waiting and neither can we. the good news is the transition to a cleaner global economy presents a great economic for t states. bloomberg news energy finance estimates that private, clean energy investment will more than triple by 2030. we should be fighting to attract that investment here in the united states. but we are at risk at missing out on that opportunity. china and other countries have made firm national commitments to generate more electricity from clean energy sources and that reality is reflected in their current levels of investment. $65 billion investment in china compared to $35 billi

mr. zimmerman could have remained in his van, he could have avoided confrontation in any number of occasionsbut he did not have to do that. since he had a gun he knew that if he got in an encounter the worst that was going to happen and pulled the fight out the gun. air is a reason why the attorney's office -- there is a reason why the attorneys office composes these loss from the beginning -- these laws from the beginning. even the president's statement yesterday indicated that the gun was not raised as a defense. no matter what you think about the other aspects of the case, zimmerman was on his back. there is no place for him to go and retreat when he fired the shot. any type of reasonable standard was the he believe he was in imminent danger or threat of serious injury? the jury did not make any other decision about whether it was possible for him to retreat. that was the question asked of the jury. law: 30 states have this and florida passed it in 2005. other states have put them in since then. have we considered this law even before the zimmerman case? guest: we at the brady campaign op

van ufr hotel room. at a press conference late saturday, police ruled out foul play. >> mr. monteith checked into the hotel july 6th and was due to check out of the room today there were others with mr. monteith in his room earlier last night but video and fog key entries show him returning to his room by himself in the early morning hours, and we believe he was alone when he died. >> reporter: adam shankman spoke on the phone to monteith hours before his death. >> he was the glue, he was the cheerleader that really held everybody together. that i really felt. he was always smiles. he was patient. he always knew all his lines right away. he was the first to laugh when things were muddy. >> reporter: monteith skyrocketed to fame in 2009, playing the loveable heart throb quarterback, he's credited with making the fox tv series a hit. since he was 13 years old, monteith openly said he battled with so bright. it was just four months ago when the canadian actor voluntarily checked himself onto a rehab facility. his friends and girlfriends were encouraged by his steps to stay clea

mr. zimmerman could have remained in his van, he could have avoided confrontation in any number of occasions, but he did not have to do that. since he had a gun he knew that if he got in an encounter the worst that was going to happen was he lose the fight and pulled out the gun.and do what he did and kill unarmed 17-year-old walking home. now, there is a reason why the attorney's office -- there is a reason why the attorneys office composes these loss from the beginning -- these laws from the beginning. guest: even the president's statement yesterday indicated that the gun was not raised as a there is a reason why. no matter what you think about the other aspects of the case, zimmerman was on his back. there is no place for him to go and retreat when he fired the shot. any type of reasonable standard was the he believe he was in imminent danger or threat of serious injury? the jury did not make any other decision about whether it was possible for him to retreat. that was the question asked of the jury. host: 30 states have this law and florida passed it in 2005. under then governor jeb bush

mr. martin or others. to be candid, i have been in search of a tangible legacy for tray van martin. is hearing, this event is an example. but it will pass. and i'd like to see how you sy the channeling of all that energy out there. of course everyone is focused on the justice department. that may or may not be in our hands. some are saying major organizations should decide whether they are going to go to your which has stand ground laws and are asking that people not take their conventions and their money to florida. mr. crump said the police essentially can't profile. can a slan profile? >> if you can catch them the reason the police can't profile is because that's state action. a slan is not state action and the answer mr. crump is that a slan can profile if you are in a stand your ground state. so another tangible legend that occurs to me is why are we going to let these stand your ground laws stand? they are a clear and press nt danger to every black man in america. i'm going to ask the panel beginning with mr. martin himself if he's given any thought to a tangible legacy of any

this is what budget committee ranking member chris van hollen has put forward seven times, mr. speaker, only to see it prevented by the majority from receiving a vote. the speaker says let the house work its will. well, perhaps this is the will of the house. i hope not. i urge my colleagues to work together across the aisle so we can end the sequester, end the sequester and restore fiscal discipline in a way that does not harm our security, our economy, the most vulnerable in our country or america itself and i yield back the balance of my time. the speaker pro tempore: members are reminded not to traffic in the well when someone -- when someone is peaking from the well. the chair recognizes the gentleman from virginia, mr. rigell, for five minutes. mr. rigell: i thank the speaker. i come to the floor this morning to call for a change in the house calendar. r. speaker, leader set priorities. they identify the challenges and opportunities that face their organization. and they assess them and put them in the right order and then they align their rganization's calendar to make su

mr., you know, maybe goodwrench. >> actually, we guarantee these for life, but every time a car changes it needs a new style. i had a guy get on a vande around on these vans all the time, he had 15 or 16 ratchets and he said this is a standard tool. he said i need two more because the cars have changed, i can't get in the space. we love this. this is what drives our volume. >> last thing, i know that you talked about asia, you said china right now all the cars -- there's a lot of cars on the road but they're all new. is china going to be a good market ten years from now? >> china's going to be a good market ten years from now. in fact, all of asia. but china's a place where the repair wave is rising. the cars are new, but they're all new, and they haven't really gotten the idea of the need for repair. so that's what we're doing. we're building our physicals. just ten years ago we had nothing in china. two offices, ten people. now we have 1,500 people. five factories, a design center and scores of offices all over the country. >> yours is a great american success and growth story. thank you so much. nick pinchuk, chairman and ceo of

mr. perez because the record he has established to government service demonstrates that he is willing to use the levers of government power to manipulate the law in order to vana political agenda. several of my colleagues cited examples of his track record in this regard, but in my view, perhaps the most alarming example of mr. perez's willingness to manipulate the rule of law is his involvement in the quid pro quo between the city of st. paul and the department of justice. in this deal, the department of justice cut with the city of st. paul. the department agreed not to join two false claims act cases in exchange for the city of st. paul withdrawing its case before the supreme court in a case called magnerv. gallagher. mr. perez's actions in this case are extremely troubling for a number of reasons. at this point, no one disputes the fact that mr. perez actually orchestrated this entire arrangement. he manipulates the supreme court dockets so that his favorite legal theory called disparate impact theory would evade review by this high court. in the process, mr. perez left a whistle-blower twisting in the wind. those are the acts, and even mr. peres doesn't

van jones. newt, i'm going to call you newt now that you're a colleague at cnn. you can call me wolf. or you call me mrime charge against george zimmerman? >> i think it would be an absurdity. i think it would be a miscarriage of justice. the standard for a hate trial is higher than the standard for murder. a jury of six people spent five weeks listening to all the case, all the arguments, and concluded there was not a case there. this is a tragedy. it's a tragedy that trayvon martin is dead. but the jury concluded it was not an act of murder. it wasn't even an act of manslaughter. to think that the justice department can come in and cross this much higher threshold, i think would be absolutely an abuse of justice rather than the behavior of injustice. >> let's see what van jones has to say. go ahead. >> well, look, i think we need to let the process go forward. there is, i think, a basis for continuing an inquiry here. it does seem that there was a pattern and practice on the part of mr. zimmerman of focusing in on minority kids when he began to become this neighborhood watch hero, possibly in his own

mr. zimmerman as to his decision about whether or not to testify. >> your objection is overruled. >>steve: really? did the judge go way too far right there. greta van susteren weighs in. you'll be shocked. >>brian: imagine driving directly into a mudslide. >> oh my god. >>brian: wow. a car swallowed up and how the driver made it out with his video camera. "fox & friends" starts now. ♪ ♪ >>gretchen: good morning everybody. >>brian: i lived in malibu for awhile. those mudslides a little bit scary. i'm always there after the mud arrives so you know your commute is about three and a half hours longer. >>steve: wait till you see that video. by the way, you know what today is? >>gretchen: national slurpee day. >>steve: it's 7-eleven! >>gretchen: every day is national something day. >>brian: it's also slurpee day. i heard that 7-eleven is going to be open for 24 hours. >>steve: used to be from 7 to 11. let me ask you this, if 7-eleven is open 24 hours a day, why do they have locks on the door? any way, free slurpees nationwide. today celebrates their official anniversary. >>gretchen: we eat a lot of different foods on this show starting at 6 a.m. sometime

mr. speaker, on our military readiness and training is to replace the sequester with a big and balanced alternative. budget committee ranking member chris van hollen has proposed a balanced alternative seven times, but the majority has not allowed us to consider a balanced plan on this floor. if we had on this floor an alternative to the sequester that achieves real deficit reduction which we know we need through a balance of revenues and targeted spending cuts, mr. speaker, i believe that the majority of us, republican and democrat, will come together and support it. it's time for speaker boehner to appoint budget conferees to the house and senate negotiators so they can begin to reach agreement on a balanced compromise. i will continue, mr. speaker, to call on both parties to listen to the men and women of packs river, of webster field, of indian head, quantico, folks in north carolina that mr. jones represents, folks in maryland that i represent, the folks in connecticut that mr. courtney represents, the folks in massachusetts that my good friend, the ranking member, almost ranking member on the rules committee represents and the gentlem

mr. heck: madam speaker, i come to the floor today with a heavy heart to pay my respects and bid a solemn farewell to las vegas metropolitan police officer, david van hollen buskirk. he was killed -- van abouts-u buskirk. he was killed while participating in a rescue mission outside of las vegas. he was 36 years old. to he me dave was more than a constituent, he was more than a public servant. he was one of my medics, and a teammate. you see prior to coming to advantage, i was a member of the search and rescue team and the department's medical director. a 1-year veteran of the department and one of only seven missioned search and rescue officers on this elite force, officer vanbuskirk was called to rescue a hiker stranded on a rocky ledge above mary jane falls on mount charleston. once he reached the hiker via vanbuskirk fficer secured the man and himself with harnesses to go back to the helicopter. it was some point during the lift that he became detached from the harness and fell to the ground below. the hiker survived, he was saved by the heroic actions of officer vanbuskirk. david's career with the department was marked by many accomplishments.
