when people dial 0 during the graveyard shift, they need to know that they are talked to the person they are talking to on the other end of the line is well-trained, well versed, someone who has had years of experience in handling emergencies. we have the training and experience and necessary equipment to do this. having any other entity perform such critical functions would put the lives of our staff and residents in jeopardy. so we ask that you read appropriate the funds to laguna honda for the graveyard shift. supervisor chu: thank you. next speaker. >> good morning, supervisors. i work for dph for 10 years. i represent the workers at laguna honda. a couple co-workers could not be here today. i believe they communicated with all of your offices, but we delivered hard copies to the clerk for you, and i hope you get a chance to review them because they illustrate that this document that the hospital put together for the program change request is not giving you the full picture. you simply cannot transfer calls to the nursing office and expect what they just described to happen. we know

i am trying to move about 1 million people of the dial, so i have come to learn about doing just the sort of thing. i want to extend a special welcome to the members of the chu -- muni centennial and honorary committee that dianne feinstein has graciously agreed to share. i will be introducing and recognizing members of the committee shortly along with the lady with two hats right here. nice to have you here. absolutely. always part of the day. we also have some very special guests and extend them greetings. from district four, supervisor carmen chu. [applause] district 8, supervisors got wiener -- supervisor scott wiener. district 10 supervisor malia cohen. district 11 supervisor john avalos, and city treasurer jose cisneros. [applause] front and center. well done. very happy 100th to muni. since its first days of operation on december 28, 1912, this unique public transportation system has attracted and intrigue and amazed and served people from the city and untold visitors from all around the world. at to was the first major publicly owned transportation system in the nation and to

the russell 1000 and truck the folks at index universal as weird because you don't hear from people to dialnow, that might be why this fund rarely trades. for the part, russell says it's used for exposure to stocks by institutional investors. number five, the fidelity composite index tracking etf, the first etf back to 2003. as index universe points out, this fund had zero inflows and outflows since 2010. it's available to its customers. number four, tyler, you will love this one. the claymore cef gs connect ein. it's closed-in funds or a called a plat pus pregnant with a dinosaur. as you might guess, gugen time investments doesn't see it that way. i'll be back with the top three weirdest etfs, one more i believe wrong headed than weird and you can find the whole list on cnbc.com and i have to tell you i was out on location for some of these. >> etfs that don't trade and no net inflows or outflows for years. why do the companies keep them open? >> interestingly enough you see you see some close down and can go look at the fishing and farming. there was a fishing etf. >> gleason probably inv

. >> in egypt, by the way, people are used old-fashioned dial-up models to dial internationally to get on the internet and people do find a way around it. >> how can the consumer evaluate the quote, unquote information that's on the note? >> that's a tough one. i think the consumers really need to have critical thinking skills, and i think we should be thinking that from kindergarten on up, so when you see something online, i don't care where it comes from, even if it has my byline on it. you should look at it with a certain degree of skepticism simply because we should look at everything that way. we should look for multiple sources and look for the credibility. for example, is it an organization who is normally trustable, but even if it is an organization one normally trusts, the "new york times," which is a very reputable -- >> lots of people don't trust the "new york times" today. >> lots of people don't trust it and a lot of people who do trust it have had specific situations where they have been let down. again, critical thinking. any time something seems too good to be true, it'

now, some people say he dialed it back, i think it's more a matter of putting it into context and actually, making sure that people understand the nuance of what he was saying. don't we just like lament the death of nuance in this new media landscape? i mean, but at the end of the day, governor romney comparing obama to someone being detached when this is the guy who didn't know what a donut is. who has a car elevator. who is detached here, angela? the reality is, teachers, first responders are laid off at local government and state government and the president is saying that private sector jobs have been growing, they haven't been growing as much as we would like, but they have been growing, but-- >> jehmu let's talk about-- >> let me get in a word in here edge-wise. >> go ahead. >> kelly: jehmu you say lament the death of nuance. how about the american people lamenting the death of jobs and what's done about that on both sides of the aisle the president saying yesterday, the question then is what are we going to do about it? and then you have eric cantor saying, the republicans frankly s

when i started doing this 25 years ago, we would dial eight people to get a completed interview. people. that number is now well over 100. so our industry has become much more difficult to actually get a real respondent on the line, someone who has a view, has opinions and is an actual voter and it is much more difficult. these challenges are not just ours, it's the industry. i would say the biggest thing that we're focusing on now is how often and how much we can interview the people who will actually decide the race. america is more polarized now than ever. we spend a huge amount of time interviewing white independent voters who are disaffected with both parties. these are folks that will decide the race and even in a few states. you look at the fact is that new york or my home state of california, they're not going to decide this election and so much of national surveys have that built into them. unfortunately, if you win california by one point, or win it by ten points, you get the same number of electoral votes and so we spend a huge amount of time in methodology looking at

spending tremendously and i think this is just a symptom of how crazy elections are getting that people have to dial for dollars even scott walker who won probably didn't want to spend all that time fundraising which he had to do to win this election and so i think it's just another side of how broken our system has become what do you think haven't i think that you asked the right question here in the mainstream media actually isn't asking that question that question is can elections be bought a lot of the social science research shows a tenuous connection at best between money and buying elections you know history is littered with huge money money interests you know linda mcmahon for example in twenty ten in connecticut who actually failed to use their money advantage when steve levitt kind of wrote the seminal study on this university of chicago economist show. a doubling in your spending of money might get you one percentage point. and when we look at the numbers if we even take that as the exact proportion between scott walker and barrett last night that's not enough to make up the difference an

there's plenty of room for stuff that the stations believe will keep people from changing the dial. >> what is the irony to me is that these very same stations that are giving 22 seconds out of a half hour to serious news, are raking -- and not covering politics, are raking in money from the ads that the politicians and their contributors are spending on those same papers. >> yes, they're earning hundreds of thousands and millions of dollars from the ads that they are being paid to run. and not even risking running a minute of news, which might actually check on the accuracy of an ad. truth watches, they're almost invisible now. >> so they will tell you, however, that they're in the entertainment business. that they're in the business to amuse the public, to entertain the public. and if they do these serious stories about the schools or about the highways or about this or that, the public tunes out. that the clicks begin to register as -- >> it's one of the great lies about broadcasting now. there are consultants who go all around the country and they tell the general managers and the

. >> they equip people with phones and dialing software on a bus that's been traveling the state. >> we are going to go to 1745. >> teams in the neighborhood carry tablets that direct volunteers to households. >> our focus is making sure that we touch every household between now and tuesday that we believe needs to hear the message of governor walker. >> more than 180,000 people here participated in early or absentee voting. the turnout on tuesday is expected to exceed 60%. governor walker enjoys a slight lead in the polls but it's too close to call. one thing certain, after all the votes are counted no one would be able to say wisconsinites have not had their say the second time around. >> might be, see you in a couple days. "special report" goes on the road next week. we will be live from wisconsin next monday and tuesday for the big recall election there. we will reveal the identity of a well-known superhero that the comics now say is gay. that's up next. and an impressive pat on the back for mitt romney from an unexpected source. graduation, huh ? crazy, right ? well, with this d

i think because of may and what we saw a little bit in the end of april, people are going to dial thosetions back. >> jessica, what do you think about gasoline prices dropping? are lower gasoline prices better or worse in terms of auto sales? i can see it both ways. for example, if gasoline prices are lower, i might say, well, maybe i won't trade in my big gas guzzling suv. maybe i won't go for that smaller car i was going to buy. >> uh-huh. yeah, i mean i think there's both ways you can argue it. and i think that, you know, for consumers out there, lower gas prices generally do help. i mean, when gas prices go higher, there is some shifting. but we haven't seen a big effect. i think at the end of the day people are used to high gas prices now. we're not seeing gas prices effect consumer psyche like we did in 2008 when there was the huge shock and people did things that didn't make sense like trading in suvs for compacts. >> that's a good point. phil, thank you for joining us. let's hope the auto sector continues to be a bright spot in this economy. also ahead with 15 and 30-year fixed

. >> for people at home, that's was we're looking at, the results of dial testing, where people sit inand watch the ads and basically turn their reaction to it. we have a couple ads as charlie mentioned. first is from the obama campaign. let's look at that. >> as to what to do for the housing industry specifically, don't try and stop the foreclosure process. let it run its course and hit the bottom. i can say i applaud it. it's an excellent piece of work. i was a severely conservative republican governor. >> and we should point out, we're actually having to condense these ads so that they're a little bit shorter. >> right. but you still got the point with that one. number one, you hear romney's words and they're turned against him. number two, that the housing market should hit a bottom or that detroit -- he says detroit should go bankrupt? his own words are being used against him, which makes it credible. and number three, he's dealing with issues. the ads that deal with issues that people care about, that aren't random, those are the ads that are most effective. >> so, since they're

. >> in egypt, people are using old-fashioned dial up modem to dial in a nationally to get on the internet. >> how can the consumer evaluate the "information" that is on the internet? >> that is a tough one. the people have to have critical thinking skills. we should be teaching them from elementary school on up. you should look at it with a certain degree of skepticism simply because you should look at everything that way. we should look for multiple sources hand look for the credibility. is it an organization that is normally trusted? and even if this is, "the new york times" is very irreparable, but the people who do trust -- is very reputable, but the people who do trusted have also been let down. if it is too good to be true, it is too good to be true. a well-meaning campaign about a warlord who is killing people in uganda, but the way in which it was presented turned out to be a bit misleading, perhaps not deliberately, and a lot people had to rethink appeared to be a sort of apple pie kind of a story appeared you have to look at -- story. you have to look at everything with some ske

when i started doing this 25 years ago, we would dial 8 people to get the complete interview.mber is now well over 100. the industry has become much more difficult. to get a real respondent on the line, someone who has an opinion, is an actual voter -- it is much more difficult. these challenges are not just ours. it is the industry. it is the biggest thing we are focusing on now. how often and how much can we interview the people who decide the race? america is more polarized than ever. we are spending a huge amount of time interviewing white independent voters, who are disaffected with both parties. these are the folks that are going to decide the race. even in a few states, but the fact is new york, or my home state of california, are not going to decide this election. so many national services have that built in. if you win california by one point or 10 points, you get the same 12 points -- 12 votes. we spend a huge time looking at just the voters who will decide the race, in telephone interviews -- we are doing increasing cellphone components of that. we do a huge number

dial up account so clearly all digital citizens are not created equal some people have more influence online than others but this is a step in the right direction i just hope that it's not a p.r. stunt because we've seen so many awful bills out of congress over the past six months and originally i believe he supported cispa so maybe he's trying to atone for his sins here in any case it's definitely a good step and senator wyden are very powerful in congress they're both high ranking members and they can really get something done here so i think this is a good move ok so you seem consciously optimistic about this do you think it sounds like you also think that some of them are might be unrealistic. yeah i mean we don't have to descend into total idealism the bill of rights that we already have prevents a lot of the more awful bills we're seeing in congress member becoming law things like cispa clearly violate your fourth amendment rights and potentially even your first amendment rights but certainly it's a good idea to clarify these things and to bring things up to date for the modern

dialed it back on fellony drug cases. but in new york and in seattle too, even more people are get ago rested for low level misdemean misdemeanors has there been a focus on that? that criminalizes communities and leads to lost employment and missed days of work. it leads to the civil rights issue that we have in new york city today. in new york, there is a policing decision to categorize something that could be treated as a fellony. in seattle we have had the same thing. in 2008 for budget reasons only. the county prosecutor decided to prosecute a bunch of charges. you have to go main stream. as a result of that, but most people do plead to it. as a result of that, we experienced discouraged officer syndro syndrome. the drug arrest rate for drug crimes, practically every drug offense is a drug crime. so -- but there has been a 63% reduction in drug arrested in 2010 this is not the result of any intensional policy. this is an officer reaction to incentives and the trivialization of these cases by other players in the system. but what has been fascinating with this program. the structure has arisen that provides support for the sy

people on line no about it. >> they're using old-fashioned dial-up modems internationally to get on the internet as a people to find a way around. >> how can the consumer evo you read the information that is on the net? >> i think the consumer's need to have critical thinking skills and we should be teaching that from kindergarten up. when you see something online i don't care where it comes from even if it had my guideline on it you should look at it with a certain degree of skepticism because you should look at everything that way, a multiple forces, the credibility for example is that an organization who is normally trusted that even if it is an organization one normally trusts, "the new york times" which is reputable a lot of people don't trust and those that do have a specific situation where they've been let down so critical thinking. any time something seems too good to be true we have a recent case with cony 2012. a wonderful well-meaning campaign about a day man killing people in ugonda, but the way in which that was presented turned out to be a bit misleading perhaps not deliberately and a lot of peo

>> most people say that is a light switch that comes on but i more have a dial. everyone wants to go out there and threw a 9 inning shut out. but to win today was big enough for me and i will take that and roll off of that. i have nothing left to lose. that is not necessarily the case. you feel like you can always get worse. but for me, that was enough. and i wanted to turn it around. >> meanwhile in seattle, the a's are on. cocoa chris led of the game with a home run to left field. in the meantime the a's rookie pitcher struck out a career high 9 and got a great defense. with his bare hands, about the man at first. it was tied at one in the seventh pitch and then they get into it. backed away and gone. the a's only get two hits and both are home runs. if they win by a funnel of 2/1. they play the rangers tomorrow. five years ago wimbledon started paying the ladies' champion the same as the men's. the debate is apparently still raging on. it is not working for france. he thinks that men should make more, telling reporters that does not work because men spend twic

people. it's a force that strengthens community. some things like long distance telephone strengthens the community. you can call -- i can remember when direct distance dialing came in, in the mid 1950s. before that to make a long distance call, of course, we didn't have cell phones. we had black phones. that's the only color at&t wanted you to have. you would call 0 for operator and wait for the dial to come around as it took a long time with the 0 and they would say, i want to call new york, grammars i 46029 and hang up and wait for them to call back and say the call had been put through. it cost a dollar a minute. when the average salary was $100 a week. people did not communicate by long distance phone. it's different today. i used to call -- when i was in college in the 1960s, i'd talk to my parents once every two weeks or so. my father was a doctor, they weren't poor. we didn't use long distance phone to call. you know, this was a dollar a minute. conversations began by saying, who died? so now you have -- my feeling is that it can make community work better in some ways by stretching it over time and place. and by collapsing time the way long -- colla

dial on the benefits and say, you know what? maybe we can't do as much. let's keep it under cost. guess what? you have many people that were anticipating this administration providing benefits of every make and color to all american people. you can drive the cadillac with the sunroof and the power windows and heated seats. all of those people will come out of the woodwork putting additional pressure on the administration to actually make the benefits more generous. we are in a constant struggle with that or not us the administration will be in a constant struggle with that. and then the last point on the horizon is actually the 2013 tax hikes that are in the health care law. let's not forget again this is not just about the individual mandate. there are over $500 billion in new penalties and taxes included in this health care law. and in addition to the expiring bush tax cuts that will be happening at the end of the year, we now face new obama care taxes. in particular i'm going to focus on a new medicare payroll tax increase. today the medicare payroll tax is 3.9%. starting in 2013, that will increase to 3.8% an

now, some people criticize the bus tour as a pandering gimmick especially with his original title, slumin' for your vote. then campaign dialedand it is now the every town counts tour." they are backing up the idea that every town counts by only visiting towns in carefully selected swing states. i am done talking now. >> thank you so much for joining us here in the war room. we keep getting great stuff being brought in. this is a yellow dog democrat

people figured out that no matter how often they pulled the lever and the dials came up on the slot machinenothing to do with the nickels. as soon as they figured it out, they stopped playing. they didn't want to be playing anymore. they were passive and acted depressed. why? people need to earn their success and people hate learned helplessness. it turns out. once again, what do we need? we need a system that allows us to earn success and avoid earning helplessness. we need a system that allows us to be rewarded for our merit, a system that allows us to keep what we earn. that is the free enterprise system. earned success is the first moral promise of the free enterprise system to all of us. now, a lot of reasonable people will object. they october because they say, it sounds great and i'm happy for you that you earned success. eric talked about this, this sort of weird -- that i had, played the french horn professionally 12 years before going back to graduate school and somehow ended up president of the american enterprise institute. it is a little weird. when i quit, when i decided to qu
