let me reiterate what i said before. there is no way to run the infrastructure investment policies of the country on a one-year or two-year bill. we need a multi-year bill. it is difficult thing to do today in congress because of the difficulty with approving new revenue, and i am afraid we're going to continue to do that. and as we continue to see that picture stretch into the future, the activities of authorities like this aboard become more and more important. because a larger share of the revenue that is available is actually directed and spend at the local level. it does not, however, make up for what the federal government should be doing, or for that matter, what the state should be doing, but that is the reality we're living with. it is even more extraordinary that we still have some major pieces of progress to report. the chair's report already attests to that. so we will keep you posted on the progress of the conference committee, and we're hoping at least we will have 01-year bill. the topic i want to highligh

i want to reiterate what we have been fighting for from the beginning. all of the youth have a right to a free and fast pass in the city. >> [speaking spanish] >> this is a representation of what we have been working on. >> [speaking spanish] [applause] >> we want to -- people who have fought hand in hand have signed in paper or over the internet. we have gathered over 7406 signatures in support of free muni for youth. >> [speaking spanish] >> we have also had families use -- whether taken pictures of themselves in support of this campaign. people will not take pictures of themselves unless they believe in the cause. we unloaded those photos so you can see the faces of those who been supporting this. -- we uploaded those photos so you can see the faces of those who have been supporting us. >> [speaking spanish] chairman brinkman: thank you. if you could please translate. thank you. >> [speaking spanish] chairman brinkman: thank you. if you could please translate those last statement. >> i want to thank the board for listening to us, but i want to challen

and nato is still ongoing no breakthrough at this point however russia reiterating its position that it won't get it wants guarantees and the u.s. and nato saying again it's not directed at russia. russia is saying you want to guarantee. nato u.s. missile defense shield is not a russia or live in brussels thank you. activists a gathering near a moscow court today in support of a feminist punk band whose members were arrested on hooliganism charges back in february or the court will consider whether to extend custody which expires and now in less than one week the group rushed to the altar of russia's christ the savior cathedral in moscow and performed what prosecutors claim was a blasphemous song of the five women who took part three were arrested and charged in our face up to seven years in prison performances drawing huge public response and a wave of criticism from russia's orthodox church. a twenty two million dollar fine that's the latest punishment dished out to america's perhaps most controversial financial giant goldman sachs and the penalty came after revelations the bank ga

it has been reiterated before, but i wanted to make sure it was clear. it needs to be supplemented with funding for support services to support you for placement. the second point is to emphasize that japanese community youth council has a history of being able to scale up their operations rapidly in quickly. but would it mean to get the funding? even the history from last summer, during the school year we normally serve about 500 youth. last summer we were able to serve 1500 in a manner -- in a matter of a month or two. i just wanted to emphasize that that is possible and the youth employment coalition is ready to go. and we are ready to serve. thank you. >> good morning. my name is daphne. in the project coordinator for chinatown. in the fall we were accepting applications. personally, i had to turn away approximately 20 youth. we are talking about a youth who are interested in working during the school year, alongside balancing between a job in school as well. canned -- and at school as well. we focused on the financial literacy and resume building. t

i would like to reiterate 55 back in district 5. the little block in nopa, please. i do not agree with chris on a lot of things. we are in accord on the residential district and commercial district being one. it is a spine. i am a member of members power. we represent home care workers. we're very sensitive to the issues of soma. it is one of the key population centers of our members. the central district business soma is not the same thing. is the buildings, luxury high- rises that are proliferating. they are similar to the housing in the north side of the central business district. they are renovated, luxury condos in historic buildings like 87 new montgomery. they also relate to buildings in the north of market -- the old financial district like the royal globe insurance building. [tone!] these similar conditions should be put together and be roughly down 52 howard -- roughly down 5 out to howard. we have the difference between modest low-rise housing and luxury high-rise housing. let's keep the residents in the same kind of district united. it will also help for

. >> i just want to reiterate. this is not nimby. this is safety. these buses are too big for residential streets. they want to keep the drivers from breaking the rules. you can't block traffic five minutes. it is not enforcedc b by sfpd. the job of the police department is not to oversee a private company. neighborhoods have been excluded from the tour buses, and the neighborhoods like seat left. presidio heights. telegraph hill. when of the stuff -- buena vista heights. there are neighborhoods where these buses are excluded. thank you very much. >> i want to defend the idea of the summit. there is the store operator and i feel like changing my practice. i think the idea of having a summit is important. if we are willing to fix this what is the point of law? some tour companies may be breaking current law. and the issue is more of communication. we would fix this, probably. >> i live in district 10. i would like to come up here and say a few words about alamo square. i used to go to the school there. i asked the young lady, where the school still t

we reiterated in 1982. as opposed to the deception prong. we were going to vigorously protect consumers under the deception prong. that's what i think we ought to do. and beyond that, we have championed, as i read the report, i thought the staff championed a do not track recommendation. and i thought we were in no position to advise anybody, let alone the congress of all people about do not track. after all the solutions that were there for both the -- the browser solutions and the self regulatory solutions, we're not ready for prime time in my judgment. and for that reason, i disagreed with the privacy report as it was written at that time. >> so if i could just take 30 seconds. so i am actually supportive of the notion of do not track. if a consumer wants to opt out of tracking. he or she ought to be able to do that. when i first started. she used to say your computer is your property. people shouldn't put thing bs in it without

i wanted to reiterate how important the small-business community is on the vibrancy of the city. i moved into the neighborhood in 1990 when hayes valley was lumped under the western addition and was at that time pretty much one of the worst neighborhoods in the whole entire city. we in the small business community have taken hayes valley from the worst to the best ever heard in the city and we have done that because the neighborhood is unique, small businesses, sold proprietorships for the most part. -- sole proprietorships for the most part. that is what the city should be about. the area shoppers come to our neighborhood because they're not confronted with starbucks and banks on every corner. it is not necessary. global travelers come to our neighborhood because they are shopping in a very unique and undeniably vibrant neighborhood, only small business and it is important maintain that. thank you so much. commissioner wu: thank you. laurence? and tess wellborn and catherine petrin. >> i am the manager of the mattress co. and i am on the board of the hayes valley labour associat

i thank my colleagues and i want to again reiterate, tom, your reward for this work will be in heaven, not here on earth. thank you very much. >> thank you, senator. next we have senator jim demint who has been leading this effort, very strongly both when he was in the house, now of course in the senate. >> thank you, tom. and citizens against government waste for years of work. testament that persistence and really long suffering can actually change the way things are done in washington. i want to thank john mccain who has been i think a lot of our inspiration to take this on and to see in the last year and a half actually get a temporary ban on earmarks was something that so many people said could never be done. we had also been told for years that earmarks had nothing to do with passing big overbudget bills. but as soon as they were suspended, suddenly these big bills have more difficulty going through. and as john said, they have been used for years and we all knew it, to bribe, to sweeten, to get bills through. and we find that a lot of the bipartisanship here in washington is re

s in this country to an end now lavrov basically reiterated moskos stance that despite this plan seemingly working out so far certainly there are some forces which are willing to disrupt this rather fragile peace. there are countries interested in the failure of kofi announced plan from the outset you predicted the failure of any political agreement in syria and only demanded regime change we have information that even today those who have such a stance are doing a lot to hamper the plan providing arms to the opposition instigating violence by militants i hope that all who have some influence will pursue the interests of the syrian people and security in the region and not their geo political ambitions. the members of the national coordinator could be from syria played along saying that the biggest difficulty in maintaining peace in syria is the lack of a unified international stance on the issue and they also have. that most will also willing for a democratic and peaceful change of power in syria now lavrov also said that. large scale server forces syria is crucial for bringing the facili

first i would, again, reiterate we are doing a great deal. policies extraordinarily accommodative. i won't go through list again but you know all the things we have done to try to provide support to the economy. i guess the question is does it make sense to actively seek a higher inflation rate in order to achieve a slightly increased reduction -- slightly increased pates of reduction in the unemployment rate? the view of the committee is that that would be very -- reckless. we have -- we the federal reserve have spent 30 years building up credibility for low and stable inflation, which proved extremely valuable in that we've been able to take strong actions in the last four, five years to support the economy without leading to an unanchoring of inflation expectations or a destabilization of inflation. to risk that asset for what i think would be quite tentative and perhaps doubtful gains on the real side would be, i think, unwise thing to do. >> [ inaudible ]. >> thank you. given your warnings to lawmakers about the looming fiscal cliff, do you think the fed has to take into accou

are try to stabilize syria and turn it into a battle ground elsewhere in the region not really reiterated hezbollah its view that palestine belongs to the palestinians now you can see my house in the garden if your house and i go ok somebody force doesn't become mine entrance to your i'm going to it's just because i'm stronger than you are right here the name of the ok well you have that doesn't give me it doesn't legalize why i should leave your house now i want to talk to us all ahead of the broadcast of the program at the secret location where he films the show we told all about the show how he chose the guests of course he spent a lot of time himself on the other side of the interview with death he talks about his disenchantment with mainstream media and why he chose in our team to broadcast the first show and also why he feels that he's in a unique position to make an interview show let's hear what you have to say. the majority of what they have said to me they could not say. it's from people that work. in dealing with me they understand that in order to deal with a host of historica

i am wondering if you can reiterate the planning and the public outreach and the stakeholder outreach meetings and the public open houses that are coming up very soon with in district 5 and district one? >> absolutely, supervisor mar. thank you for pointing that out. there is absolutely information in the report about that as get a to shorten my report a little bit. but we do have public outrage -- outreach meetings planned for may and july in the neighborhoods to essentially look at not just the corridor in a general but the specific intersections at masonic and fillmore, which have been the source of a lot of debate, and they're the most difficult challenges that that project has. i would reiterate what i said earlier, the agreement on how to design and van ness will have a major impact, positive impact, on our ability to move geary forward. geary has had a very detailed analysis of issues like parking impacts and so on. and many of the issues have been addressed already. i believe that the extra time that it has taken us to come to agreement on van ness will be essentially -- it wi

president barack obama dilma rousseff reiterated her criticism of european and american monetary policy she said of course we must take action to defend ourselves to defend is different from to protect it means not letting our manufacturing sector cannibalize broaching is defend their exports. allowing the federal reserve in washington to screw up with global money supply supply and dilma rousseff when she was in the white house that barack obama looked as though she was about to go again the big old snap and say look stop it stop it like she was lecturing him and barack was like a little boy no no no chooses to nest he's holding up a piece over you didn't hear he didn't see it mostly well that would have really been garlic to the vampire. so again this whole ground we return to the whole of graham max lottery sectors beating triple a provide winning bet muni credit want to win the oregon or florida lottery don't purchase tickets buy their bonds instead so here you have this gulag casino a state where most people are inside the whole of the ground where we're all having fun and mega mil

that fact was reiterated in this morning's arizona republic. mr. chairman, nearly every statistic used to justify sb-1070 has serious factual problems wit. newspaper fact check researchers found nine out of ten immigration statements they checked, including some you heard today are not the whole truth. i would encourage you to take a look at the four plus gigabytes of reports and data on the dvd i provided to the committee and educate yourself on the real facts. i'm not saying all the concerns are legitimate. i'm not saying there are no costs. no one questions the serious issues of drugs and smuggling on the board. no one questions the security threats. no one deny there's is an immigration problem. we can bring on all of this. but shouldn't we spend our time looking at solutions that might work, rather than on one we know that doesn't? 23 i don't want to ask a question, should it be what else you got. it amazing me that sb 1070 was the best idea they could come up with. maybe because no other solutions were allowed to be heard and discussed. fortu

so, again, i want to reiterate, i favor diplomacy. i favor probably an unrealistically ambitious diplomatic approach. the very fact that that approach is unrealistic causes me to doubt whether or not we will get to where we want to go. as i mentioned, ali covered quite well some of the obstacles to a diplomatic resolution to the problem. i want to focus on u.s. politics and impediments and suggest where we might go from here to prove me wrong. so, in terms of american domestic politics, the general idea i've been trying to get out into the public is that what might work can't happen and what might happen can't work. and i think that's a fairly glum assessment. i hope that i'm wrong about it, but that's what i believe at this point. as barbara mentioned, the congress' attitude has been let's add more pressure on top of the existing pressure and promise not to put any more pressure if concessions are made. in fact, it's even stopped that last part of not putting any more pressure. the central bank sanctions, for example, congress did no

it wasn't that i hadn't said it before, but if this kind of a problem existed, i needed to reiterate in the strongest possible language that this kind of behavior was unacceptable. and didn't do justice to the people who worked for me and didn't allow us to fix the problems that they had. >> i appreciate that. let's hope we don't have too more teaching moments. ms. clark? >> thank you, mr. chairman. i want to go back to a little bit of what congress member marino trying to get at. and i want to ask a couple of questions about the status of the investigation regarding who leaked the memo to the news media. who is conducting the investigation, and can you explain the process? is it within dhs? >> the office of compliance and security which an office within nppd run by a certified law enforcement officer is conducting the investigation. it was begun in the days after the leak. the process there is to go around and determine first of all who had possession of the report at one point in time. as director anderson has indicated, the two of them prepared the report. i don't believe there wa

in addition, in november 2011 president obama reiterated that agencies should release the letters from members and all contacts that direct agency staff to fund particular projects. as usual, the department of defense was the repository of the vast majority of earmarks. 61% in defense. $2 billion out of the $3.3 billion total. and the senate was once again the source of far more earmarks than the house. out of the earmarks that could be identified as coming from the house or senate, 77% of them originated in the senate. now, some of the earmarks that again appeared in prior years that we think could violate the moratorium include $35 million for the national energy technology laboratory, $10 million for the chicago sanitary and ship dispersal barrier, $8.9 million for san joaquin river restoration, and $3 million for aquatic plant control. one-run of the longest-running earmarks which this year received $5.9 million, is the east-west center in hawaii. the senator has received ten earmarks worth $103.8 million since 2001 -- i'm sorry. since 1997. it's been around longer. al added by sen

he just reiterated that to oprah a couple of weeks ago. atlanta, where she lives. it's a great opportunity to start her career in a familiar place. the second season of "forbetter or worse" is set to premier on tbs in july. >> do we know how this came about? did tyler perry approach her personally? >> you would think he probably did. he knows promotion. i'm sure he put a lot of thought into this. he's close to whitney houston. he's close to the family. he tried to take ownership over bobbi kristina and proe pekt te in the process. he's known for giving first-time actors a shot. this is a recurring role. not a big part right now. he may be trying to give her encouragement and a nudge on the right path to keep her together. >> all right, we wish her the very best. good luck with her new role there. we'll be watching for it. thank you. >>> don't forget to catch "sh "showbiz tonight" on our sister network. secure and reliable energy to the united states. over the coming years, projects like these could create more than half a million jobs in t

i am pleased supervisor cohen has reiterated that it remain together in district 10. i am going to be handing these are round. good on the bottom is the population deviation. it is 73,000, which is exactly -- >> any additional speakers for public comment on this agenda item? we will take a 10-minute break and return of >> thank you. thank you to the members of the public for providing it your testimony and public input to the current draft map, and at this time if i could have mr. lee, we are going to approach mapping and what we may or may not decide to do moving forward with this particular agenda item. in the past when we have not had all nine members of the task force, we have had to consider if we would do line drawing. chrir mcdonald said he would ask they consider not drawing lines tonight, so i wanted to invite taskforce members on their preference. even if we decide to not do line drawing, i would like has force members to listen herriot's they would like to continue to inquire about -- to list stereos -- areas they would like to continue to inquire about. i

to reiterate, supervisor, thank you for reminding everyone the original goals of the program. the original goals of the program were to stimulate private investment, create jobs, increase housing production by producing a fish and carrying costs associated with the impact fee collection process. i will get back to talk about those costs and why they might be deemed inefficient. the second goal was to consolidate the effective enforcement. the deferral program was a component of a much larger part of the building code that has resulted in a much cleaner in easier one-stop process for paying fees. another goal was to increase the legal and accounting services of the fees that we do collect. i will go into greater detail in the second half of my presentation on that point. this ordinance became effective on july 1, 2010, sun setting, naturally, july 1, 2013. that is the deferral program set to sunset on july 1, 2013, unless the board asks to extend the program beyond that date. with that, i will pass the podium to pamela lebron -- levin. >> pamela levin, director the -- deputy di
