i can't remember any of my lines, mrs. warren. i'm really nervous.l over here for a second? mrs. warren? this isn't broadway, it's junior high. there's no reason at all to be nervous. we're going to go out there tonight in front of family aends and have some fun, okay? all: okay. if one more thing goes wrong i'll have to take my own life. nd fri well, if i could just have a word with you... in 45 minutes, the curtain goes up on a shaky production of ten little indians. ooh!n little indians. i thought i recognized the mise en scene. i did this play years ago. ( british accent: ) on the contrary, major many a psychotic killer te would appear to be quite normal. you see, you can never suspect that underneath that calm exterior there lies the heart of a maniac. it happens to be true, by the way. who are you? oh, i'm dr. frasier crane. from the radio. kacl talk... well, never mind. listen, someone told me that my chair would be here. i'll just get this out of your hair if i may. excuse me. right now this chair's the most entertaining thing on stage. i'm s

mr. warren, you need to meet with us on the commitee. we'd like to know of its original design, when will this program be paid for? when will be fully invested? hopefully that coincides with some period before 2015 so the 2015 it is our answer to backlog. there's not a plan b. this is plan a, b, c, d, f. >> glad to come up -- >> more importantly, we need to understand better, what is our long-term annual commitment to a program of this magnitude? i realize there are parameters that might change that, court rulings, scope of benefits. we need to better understand it if in fact we provide fair but effective oversight to an i.t. program of this size. mr. chairman, you have been awfully generous, and i know secretary murrow is dying for me to ask him a question. >> i'm sure he is deeply disappointed. >> he is always neglected in these hearings and i have ensured him not to take it personally. i'll follow up with some audit questions in writing. mr. secretary, thank you, and thank you to your entire team. >> secretary shinseki, thank you for

warren: mr. president? the presiding officer: the senator from massachusetts. ms. warren: thank you, mr. president. and thank you, mr. leader. every april a large blue-and-gold banner flies above the entryway of old south church with the words of isiah, "may you run and not grow weary, walk and not faint." old south church sits on the finish line of the boston marathon, a distinguished and historical spot that has earned the name "church of the finish line." today i welcome ref rinds john edgerton of old south church, the church of the finish line, to thank him for coming here to share his faith, resilience, and fortitude. less than two weeks ago on the sunday before the marathon, old cannesouth church welcomed frie, family, and marathon volunteers into the church for the annual premarathon blessing of the athletes. on marathon monday, just after 12:00 p.m., the bells of old south church rang in the men's winner circle for the boston marathon. later that day, two blasts from hidden bombs rock the

mrs. warren:, i rise with the gratitude of a fearless people, gratitude for the nation's prayers, strength, and resolve. two days ago there was a cowardly and despicable terrorist attack in the city of boston. two times blasts from hidden bombs rocked the streets of copley square. two times courageous bostonians ran toward danger to help their fellow citizens. three were killed, more than 170 are wounded, many remain in critical condition. two days ago was patriot's day in massachusetts. patriot's day is one of our most cherished holidays. we celebrate the lives of ordinary men and women who, in the hour of reckless darkness and peril and need, rose before dawn in lexington and concord and let the world know that liberty and freedom, a government of the people, would be established on this earth. we celebrate patriot's day with reenact. s and pancake breakfasts, with baseball and the boston marathon. the marathon is always the greatest of celebrations. we love the speed of the winners, the endura

mr. power and ms. warren for all of their very hard work on this. at our final hearings, both the historic preservation commission and the planning commission had two remaining requests regarding the 30-day appeal period and the clarity around the process whereby the board is ceqa decision maker. as ero, i would like to thank the commission for making changes on those. i'm happy to take questions if [speaker not understood]. >> i had more of a comment. it's not a question because it's true while the bulk of the legislation focuses on negative declarations and exemptions, there are some changes to the full blown e. -i-r process. there are two key thing. one is that if you don't participate in the public comment period, you can't actually appeal the e-i-r document later on. so, that does change the larger process as well. so, if you maybe weren't paying attention to a project or weren't able to get your comments in on time -- because sometimes the windows aren't very long -- a year later when the full e-i-r document comes out, you can't -- you have no

mr. chairman. >> senator warren. >> thank you, mr. chairman. director cordray, i understand that the consumer financial protection bureau is required by dodd-frank to complete a study of mandatory arbitration, is that right? >> it is, yes. >> when do you anticipate you're going to have of that finished? -- to have that finished? >> i don't know that i can give you a specific date, but it's one of the things that is, congress has specific specifically required of us, so when we set our priorities, it is tasks congress has given us tend to take priority over tasks we have given ourselves. i would say we are already in process, well in process in putting together that study. what congress said if our statute -- in our statute is to things. they said that we should, we were to, we were to do a study of arbitration as it affects crr financial products -- consumer financial products and services, and there are arbitration clauses as i know you know in a number of different types of consumer lending contracts, and it's something that has spread in the

mr. chairman. >> senator warren. >> thank you, mr. chairman. director cordray, i understand the consumer financial protection bureau required by dodd-frank to complete a study of mandatory arbitration. is that right? >> it is. >> when you anticipate they'll be finished? >> is one of the things congress has specifically required of us, a task congress has given us. they tend to take priority over tasks we give ourselves. i would say we are already in process, while in process and putting together that study. but congress that in our statute is two things. they said we were to do a study of arbitration as it affects consumer financial products and services and causes as they know you know and type says what to my lending contracts and sent and spread in the last couple decades certainly. if we are going to adopt policy regulations are some provisions about arbitration clauses of that sort affecting consumers, it should be based on the result of a study. you could argue this is the same thing to do a cost benefit analysis. here they were much more

warren has. whoever replaces mr. down the road is not going to be able to keep preaching that america's greatest days are ahead. and they're not going to get to ride that coattail of building up the biggest empire that's been seen in the last 50 years. so, realistically, that'll happen when a predecessor, when a successor comes in for mr. buffett. that's realistically when that'll happen. >> what about the other -- what about the others? what, as far as ebay? >> yeah. ebay, united continental, bed bath & beyond. >> yeah, united continental, it's such a unique story. it's almost like the gold miners saying, we're going to pay dividends, but we're only going to pay themselves as long as the price of gold is high. so for an airline, they have to fund it out ofç their cash flo as opposed to eating into their balance sheet, because we've all seen what happened after september 11th. we all saw what happened in the recession. airlines get killed in bad times, so they need, they really need to maintain strong balance sheets

mrs. clinton, i will enthusiastically vote for her if she's elizabeth warren's running mate. switching gears here, the u.n. approved a treaty that would regulate armed sales to tyrranical regimes. iran north korea and syria voted against it. the nra loves it. the treatly will be killed in the senate where anti-gun senators are echoing the false claims that this will affect gun owners in the u.s. that's a lie. get used to it. are the senators really willing to put the will of gun lobbyists over our national security again? east lane? >> two things to say. one is i think it is time to build a very large wooden basketball player on wheels and present it to kim jong-un. that's number one. >> john: apparently dennis rodman is a chamberlain. >> i think he thought he was meeting obama. number two to the nra, if this is my camera. we're getting tired of prying your guns out of your cold, dead hands. >> john: tina? >> the u.n. just feeds into a conspiracy theory that, spoiler alert, the jews are behind it. by one world government trying to take your guns. and so this really -- like th

warren stern, brook haven national lab, formerly an employee of yours, mr. director general.safeguards regime has evolved -- >> speak a little bit closer to the mic. >> so the safeguards regime has evolved substantially over the past decades from 66153 and, of course, the additional protocol, often in reaction to crises. and it's always best in reaction to cry ice of to have a -- crises to have a plan already written down or thought about. so my question, sir, is what do you see as the evolution of the regime? what do you see as the next big change to the safeguards regime? >> okay. question about evolution. we'll take a second question so you can think about that a minute, and others if you want to be lining up at the mic. so over here, this side, please. >> thanks, trevor finley from around saturday university. harvard university. mr. amano, the 2014 nuclear securities summit in the netherlands is supposed to be the last in the series, and i note in your address you said that the iaea is ready to be the global platform for nuclear security. so i'm wondering whether you beli

mr. mayor? >> thank you, governor. thank you all for being here once again this afternoon. as the investigation continues, more victims are being identified, in true boston fashion, many offering help and assistance. earlier today, senator warren and i visited several of the victims of this tragedy. your heart goes out to them and their families during this very difficult time for them. i also want to talk about the police, the fire, ems, all those services, the volunteers who reacted quickly during this time of tragedy also. because of the outpouring of help, we set up an organization which is to collect money to help people who might need help during this time. the website is onerunboston.org. go to that site and donate re resources you might have. some folks have already stepped up, john hancock, larry lacino. the whole business community is coming together and the boston foundation. they're all there willing to help. that's how boston's coming together like it's never come before. we're all here because this tragedy is not going to stop boston. we are boston. we are one community and we will not let terror take us over. >> thank you very much, mr. mayor. thanks to all of the donors, the inaugural donors, if you will, for t

mr. kennedy was killed. so i have no problem with making a movie. i always said at the time, i said, this is a countermyth to the myth of the warren commission.that. i got in a lot of hot water. people said i was trying to distort the truth but it hadn't been established by the warren commission because to me it's a false document, doesn't read logically, so i followed the line of thinking and talked to other people. i didn't have a problem with that. i never presented that as i countertruth. >> this is something film makers do, which drives me crazy, is seeming to want to have it both ways. one way you say it's a countermyth but millions of people will see your movie and come away -- you know, they're not going to read the warren -- >> i hope so because i believe it. i do hope so. you can't -- we are going behind closed doors. when i made my movie "nixon" i had dialogue we wrote based on what we thought might happen between closed doors with mr. and mrs. nixon as well as cabinet member. you saw several behind closed door meetings. we based that on our instinct based on research. that's the best we can do. lincoln is the same thing, they go b

warren and whitehouse. i am very grateful for your and for their willingness to step up, show courage, and do what's right for america. mr. president, there are all kinds of issues that we confront as members of this great are senate. there are issues of national security, the economy, health care, immigration, all tough issues. people often ask me why i care so much about assault weapons, why i have stayed with this issue for more than 20 years now? the answer is this: in my view, the proliferation of this specific type of weapon goes to the heart of what kind of society in which we want to live. it goes to what kind of culture we're going to raise our children in. and that, mr. pres, brings us to the horrific massacre at newtown, connecticut, four months ago. sandy hook -- and a lot has been said about it, but i can't forget it. sandy hook was a safe school in a safe town. candidly, it was inconceivable that such a tragedy could happen there, but it did. i can't exaggerate how this senseless murder of 20 beautiful young children and six incredibly brave adults affected me and millions around this country. i think it's

mr. mayor. the president of the united states has fledged his full support in all efforts. we did not have to reach out to the president. the president reached out us to. >> stephanie: senator warren the mayor and the members of the delegation because the president is actively involved here and responding. on behalf of our congressional delegation, we have all of the members of our delegation. we want to extend our thanks to the first responders, the firefighters, the police officers, ems, everyone on the scene, including the volunteers who came and helped those in trouble, and helped save lives. we also want to thank those from all around the country and all around the world whose prayers and thoughts and offers of help have pored in. we are deeply grateful. as the mayor says, boston will survive. >> stephanie: that was senator elizabeth warren. [ overlapping speakers ] >> i'm the social agent in charge from fbi. i want to thank the boston fire department, and volunteers nurses, and medical staff who volunteered at the marathon. we continue to work shoulder-to-shoulder with our partners at the police department, the massachusetts state police as well as all of our other jttf agen

mr. speaker, you save every penny you have and you're only spending up to the pofrl level you don't pay income taxes. i don't care if you're warren buffett or anyone else, no one taxed up to the poverty level. everyone is taxed beyond that. here's the thing. -- open up "the wall street journal," when consumption is declining, that means savings are rising. we need more savings in this country, mr. speaker. oversaving is not a problem in america. i wish that problem upon us all. we have a unique, unique window in the world economy right now, mr. speaker. you know, for years it's been america that's been consuming everything that the world has been producing. we used to be the manufacture for the world. now -- manufacturer for the world. now we're the consumer for the world. as literally millions and millions and millions of new middle-class consumers are coming online in china and in india, millions and millions and millions that are going to continue to grow, we have a window of opportunity right now to quit being the consumer for the world, as we have been for the past few decades, and return to our status as manufacturer for th
