should indeed be title ii services or common carrier services. there's a lot of jargon here but they are all basically the same thing. they could treat those services like the internet access that you and i have today like a common carrier service by classifying it as such, and then we would have a very different conversation about authority. and just to put it out there what we in the free press think the fcc should do there is a lot of debate about that. to agree with what chris said, there is a lot of political to come over that and the fcc action and the court action following up on that as well. so, never over until it's over and even then, it's not over. the fcc that's one thing i heard one time. back quickly to the question as david raised and the panel put it, it is a win for the fcc. kress said yes, they win a lot. i would say that it is not neutrality. the rules are vacated and i think it is pretty clear that the fcc cannot reinstate them in any queen and understandably and frankly useful way for protecting internet users using the auth

the title ii services or telecom services, common carrier service.there is a lot of jargon, but they mean the same thing. they could treat those services like the internet access that you and i have today, like a common carrier service them up by classifying it as such, and then we have a different conversation about authority. to put it out at the beginning, that is what we think the fcc should do. there is definitely a lot of political ramifications over that, and potentially fcc action and court action following up on that as well. it is never it is ready clear that the fcc cannot reinstate them in any clean and useful way. is a loss for net neutrality. it is not a total loss for the fcc. they have been given some power and have some authority to regulate. stick to the words here. to regulate access. that is what we think net neutrality rules do. there have been some company saying this. -- that could indeed allow them to regulate the internet, period. broadband theless planet because of something else out there in the internet ecosystem. free pre

and information services are limited to the really broadband internet access service. and there are things that broadband providers do that are not broadband internet access service that could be clarified to be the common carrier service that could get you some amount on the road in helping to create a more even playing field with regard to content that is transmitted by the providers so that is a possibility. and they could move relatively quickly on that. if it works under 706 and it constitutes something like the internet policy statement, it likely would have to be adopted as a rule with some clarification that allows them to affirmatively engage and differentiated services. so that they are not common care services or have a rule consistent with 706 high level rule, no walking and how that at adjudicated on the case by case basis. and chairman, we noticed on the case by case basis it would be appropriate, and that would not necessarily involved. so the fcc has a lot of tools at its disposal to move forward, but if it wants to have no discrimination rules it reall

one staff member is someone who manages our legal services. one person is a farmer who does the farming for gardening at c.j. side. we have a senior administrative analyst who oversees the services provided for women, and three re-- four rehabilitative services coordinators who coordinate the programming inside the jails. in addition, we spend -- we have budgeted $70,000 for professional services which include translation for people who don't -- who need translation to other languages, and subscriptions for items such as legal books that go into the inmates' library. we also spend $540,000 on the in-jail programs, among which is the very popular one family program which provides parenting classes and contact visiting for parents -- for children whose parents are incarcerated in the jail system. and we also spend $56,000 on materials and supplies, the largest item which is a video conferencing system which allows inmates who are at cj5 to communicate with their defenders downtown and to participate in a legal -- participate in their legal defen

here are six items that are considered to writing core services presented under oo. cm. there are statements about what it is. it roughly runs 16% and we talked about before and that is several million dollars. it's 30 middle annually for this population. >> >> we have a statement as was shared by lisa and peter. kaiser is committed to continue communications on this topic and appreciates the opportunity to get feedback and input that would be valuable to hss and as was stated earlier negotiations are ongoing. now with that this is the page on icm. any additional questions? okay. this is where we are on this item. >> commissioner scott. >> yes, sir? >> in regard to this and i have been party to some of the discussions, not every one of the meetings in the pre-negotiation phase of this i still come away from the process slightly disappointed recognizing there is more work to do around this topic, and i say that publicly because i will be sitting in a chair during the rate -- as chair of the rates committee and i will raise rigorous questions. the fact is some of the eleme

i found the secret service and i loved the job. i see to people all the time it is the closest thing to being famous without everybody knowing who you are and none of the downside but you get to live this life and be part of government at the absolute highest levels. it was an incredible experience. worked quite a bit, and the prudential center, that was fun, with jon corzine being reelected and lost to chris christie. i knew he was going to lose because we tried to fill the stadium and thought they would get 20,000 people and got about 8. i found it incredible in the secret service, i kept thinking what is wrong here? what happened in that 75st precincts? is it government? i was always fascinated in the secret service having worked with people from literally to white house on down to an administrative assistant in each age as somewhere. that is an interesting job traveling to different agencies visiting people they bring in temporary staffers that everybody was so terrific to work with. so i thought it can't be a matter of persona

services? >> i think the internet, at the time that classification decision was made was more unknown than known. i think it was a period of rampant experimentation. i think the capital required broadband networks not in place, needed the flexibility to make those choices without the risk that they would be put back into the regulatory models. >> chairman wiley, does the federal communications commission need to continue to have broad discretions over mergers and acquisitions, or should the department of justice anti-trust review be enough? >> i think there has been implication from time to time. the justice department is looking at anti-trust aspects. i think two agencies need to work together and i think they have worked together through the years. so i think the process is appropriately developing. but i do worry sometimes that we see a great delays in the handling of these consolidations and mergers, which i think is contrary to the best coverage involved and contrary to the public interest

as opposed to a common carrier service is something it's an information service the company that provides that service is free to charge you more money for different levels of access the best example is cable television which is considered an information service and therefore not a common carrier for example your cable company could charge it twenty five bucks for basic package twenty five dollars more for premium news and sports channels five bucks more for a big ticket movie channel it's up to. you know what they want to offer it's up to you what channels you want to buy but the basic point is that your cable company as the information service can treat its users differently depending on how they use their television it's funny what they watch common carrier services are not allowed to do this. phone companies for example are common carriers as a common carrier service your phone company can't just charge you for doing something like using your personal phone line to talk business with a friend they can't listen in and say oh it's a business call we're going to charge you extra that's b

, it is decreasing service. and they are taking it and they are not taking it into consideration. and they are swing in the brave yard and the people that worked after 6:00 downtown, the people that work in hotels. in bars and the people that serve food and food, and the people that are coming in from the airport. and that take bart what want to get to their hotel and come ng late at night and come home, and take bart to the station and get on the muni and they want to get to it, and they did not and, they totally ignore the senior disabled community, and the people, the people that work after 5:00, and i have spoken out against what is they are trying to do because it is not, it is not helping service, it is ruining service, everything was running fine before december 5, 2009. but they cut service, and they stopped service after a certain times and because the people have to, and the people go to sleep at midnight, but there are other people that work all night long and work the different hours and they don't t

>> it will come to the health service board. they're asked to lead the program for the entire city and you may recall there are budget dollars including the funding of stephanie's position from the general fund and two additional positions we're looking to fund from the general fund as a result of the city and the controller's office of economic and workforce development for the wellness of the employers and hss is asked to run it and the board is responsible for that as well so i expect it would be march or april. >> thank you. >> any public comment on this item? seeing none item number four please. >> item four discussion item update on financial reports as of november 30, 2013 and budget update. pamela levin. >> pamela levin, deputy director chief financial officer. these are really two different items so i'm going to do one -- first i'm going to talk about the financial report through november 30. this is five -- we had five months now to use for our projections. first i want to talk about the trust fund. we are projecting a

, the netflix- like service. only surprise is that it took so long. i do not think it is going to change anything. it will be a lot of noise. but the appeal of the cash that millionth, say, 20 subscribers, and you add $40 in additional subscription fees -- you are talking a billion dollars incremental revenue. that is hard to turn down. >> what impact could raising this price have on the bottom line, have on the business? >> the explanation they gave was that this helps offset those shipping costs of moving everything around. the amount of stuff you can buy on amazon today, versus when they first rolled out amazon prime. we know why is, now they need those darned drones, you know what i mean? something that is not going to cost you the same you pay to fill up the tank. that is part of the story. this is a potentially savvy move. drones, we know, are years down the line, it ever happened. what are other things amazon can do to offset shipping costs? people talk about them by ups, fedex, the postal service. realist

your combined public service is really stands as a hallmark of devoted service to our country. but also, to move the country forward in one of its most important economic sectors. so welcome to you, it's wonderful to see all of you at the same time, at the table. with news of the court's net neutrality decision today's hearing i think is a timely opportunity to hear from each one of you who have led the expert agency, the fcc, and combined it represents over four decades of service. that is nothing short of extraordinary. and each of you have had a hand in really, i think, changing our nation's communications and technology landscape. so not only kudos to you, thank you to you, but a recognition of what each one of you accomplished. when congress passed the telecommunications act of 1996 it was my second term in congress. my first term on the committee, and there were just 11 references to the internet. the word internet, and only one mention of broadband across 128-page bill. many proponents of updating the act have cited this as evidence that the act is outdated. and unable t

the fcc will declare -- broadband internet service to be a common carrier service. those who responded to the poll by a margin of 70-30 agree with the consensus that is unlikely to happen. that the fcc is not likely to classify broadband internet service as a common carrier service under title ii. t-mobile and sprint will merge. i think we have -- agreement on where we ended up -- 44% of our respondents believe that's pretty and t-mobile will consummate a merger compared with 56% who believe that is unlikely to happen. i think that is probably an average of the likelihood that they will try and the likelihood they will get approved. that reflects where we were. i'm surprised by this one. we'll talk more about this. congress will pass and the president will sign legislation regarding patent control. our respondents did not think he was likely. 58% do not think the congress will pass and president will sign legislation on patent controls. next to last, but not least. the lack of infrastructure will lead to personal injury or significant economic disruption. i thought

the service. so, yes, we anticipate there will be more revenue available for these needs you've mentioned. >> i appreciate that. i just want to be clear that in making these statements, it's not about attacking pg&e or taking pot shots at pg&e. pg&e, you know, whatever issues we sometimes have when we turn -- when i turn lights on at home, they go on and my bill is reasonable. so, it's not attacking pg&e. i think to me it's really about making sure that the puc's power enterprise which really is an under valued and under utilized system that we sure it up, make sure it has an adequate customer base and make sure that we are generating the revenues that we can use for some really critical municipal infrastructure needs around our power system and our street lights that we are responsible for funding. >> right. >> i want to make sure we're giving the puc and the power enterprise the tools to do that. so, i will be looking at this issue as projects come to the board because i think it's important. >>

wireless service, no more title vi for cable service, let's just deregulate. well, what's in it? there's god to be a quid pro quo, and i don't really know what that is right now. >> host: on the flipside of the coin, kate tummarello, there's also an effort underway on capitol hill for fcc reform. >> guest: there is, and it kind of saw a rebirth late last year. we saw a bill that had been crank led by partisanship the previous year. there was a agreement between representative wald and representative eshoo on the fcc process reform act, and it kind of softened up some of the republican stances that they wanted more transparency and accountability at the fcc and incorporated some of the flexibility provisions that the democrats had wanted. it looks like it has a lot of momentum going to the house floor. it's definitely a bipartisan agreement on something that had been troubled ground for the committee, so -- >> host: all right. we have got three minutes left, we want to get three more issues in. paul barbagallo, what's another issue that we haven't discussed? >>

services? >> i think the internet, at the time that classification decision was made was more unknown than known. i think it was a period of rampant experimentation. i think the capital required broadband networks not in place, needed the flexibility to make those choices without the risk that they would be put back into the regulatory models. >> chairman wiley, does the federal communications commission need to continue to have broad discretions over mergers and acquisitions, or should the department of justice anti-trust review be enough? >> i think there has been implication from time to time. the justice department is looking at anti-trust aspects. i think two agencies need to work together and i think they have worked together through the years. so i think the process is appropriately developing. but i do worry sometimes that we see a great delays in the handling of these consolidations and mergers, which i think is contrary to the best coverage involved and contrary to the public interest

moses that were included in your packet about hunter view and there are follow-up questions for a services programs and that's in your informational memoranda no our packet and i provided a detailed report with respects to all the activities for your reference that concludes my report. >> thank you very much let's call the next item and it's item 9 commissioners questions and letters. >> thank you very much for the staff for working hard to put together the materials and appreciate having all the documents. so thank you very much >> anyone else. >> okay. >> one question about the community meeting in the western edition. >> yes. >> any idea when that might happen. >> that's a great question. i personally don't it makes me think that sally did not our original decision was about the fillmore heritage center and maybe someone else but we can also have more of a workshop sort of open house situation. maybe in our next call we're talk about whether or not to have this discussion >> kind of a special meeting no agenda for the community. >> yes. >> any public comment? >> a regular meeting with t

services? >> i think in short, my judgment is no. i think the internet if the classification decision was made was more unknown than it was known it was a period of rim that experimentation. i think the capitol required to drive and to produce the broadband networks that were not in place needed conditions that allowed the flexibility to make those choices without the risk they would be put back into the kind of monopoly that the regulatory model. so, i think it was an important component to spur the investment. >> chairman, does the federal communications commission need to continue to have broad discretion over the mergers and acquisitions, or should the department of justice antitrust review be enough? >> i think there has been duplication from time to time although i would point out that the justice department is looking at potential suspects and the fcc has a broad public interest standpoint. i think that the two agencies that need to work together and that have worked together through the

apple came out with their own service recently. they will be showcasing a specific album, making it exclusively there for you to check out first. everyone has talked about beyoncÉ using the power of her platform to put her album out first on itunes. it depends on how big an artist you are. if you are big enough, you can do whatever you want. it will still depend on which service is choosing to get the exclusive deal to get you there first. there's only so much shelf space we are talking about using your phone to listen to music. >> there are other ways to do so. in your automobile, you can use sirius xm which carries a variety of different programming. there is the onstar system from gm. did those businesses make a presence at the grammys? >> the automobile industry makes a presence during the commercial breaks. although, it is a big event for pepsi, a huge sponsor during the grammys. i was at the consumer electronics show this year. it is very clear the automobile industry wants to be in business with the music business in a bigge

you can stay but you may not get the same service reserved for better customers. a federal court was asked basically: is the internet like a regulated utility or a private business, free to provide different levels of service? that eyes-glaze-over term, net neutrality may not make your pulse race but the court's decision may slow down some web traffic. here is how it all happened. >> the fcc has to go back to the drawing board if it wants to keep fast, broadband internet service open to all. a ruling for the district of columbia struck down federal communications commission rules protecting the openness of the internet. it's the latest twist in the battle over net neutrality. >> i remain firmly committed to net neutrality so we can keep the internet as it should be: open and free. >> in 2010, the fcc put rules in place prohibiting broadband providers like verizon and at&t from blocking lawfully content. the rules also prohibited these providers from discriminating against any traffic on the system, meaning all content on the interest net would be treated equally,
