i'm a parent of a first grade war goes to sherman. he's also in the afterschool bram at the jewish community center. a couple of things. first my son's main way of getting to school in the morning is to go on muni with me. the -- the one down side of muni is it doesn't always work well with getting to school on time, because the schedule is not consistent every day. that's something that people -- you know should be -- even who rides muni is very, very aware that it doesn't run with regularity every day. so, one specific question. it says that schools that will be redesigned by 3013, one of those is my school, sherman butt only thing that really seems to be available now is it says there will be service from treasure island. will some of the afterschool programs that -- it looks like it is fine for 2011. do -- will we know what some of those specific changes are in the future, and when will that information be available? finally, i have a another piece of feedback, you mentioned the information being shared with the public. i will say

>> you know, the funny thing is that myself and sherman alexie, the writer of smoke signals, you know, were dreaming about making this movie that would somehow catch fire, and nexthingou know, it... it caught fire and it hit. and ten years later, it's still the movie that i'm best known for, and i think it's because, you know, when you have a "coming out" type of, you know, party or whatever it might be, that's what people, you know, really see. i mean, i've made five or six movies since then, and done television-- like law and order and friday night lights, but people still remember smoke signals. and i think the lasting effect of that movie was that it was another land marker in native cinema-- if there is such a thing. you know, in the early 1990's, when dances with wolves came out, it taught a whole generation of native actors that they wanted to be performers in the industry. and with smoke signals in 1998, what happened was-- at least what i'm seeing now-- is that there's a generation of native american men and women that are saying, "we are filmmakers, we are directors, we are

but we're not taking services from sherman in year one. so, it is the status quo for next year and then either in -- in 12 or 13, would be saved up. in terms of additional information, like getting access to information, we -- nobody had answers until earlier today. because we as staff were still working on it. so it is -- it is anandable that if you call the transportation department earlier today and -- our last -- or last week, it was all a work if process. so we're going to make sure over the course respect starting immediately tom that all of this information that is just going public now is shared with all of the staff and the transportation department and the educational placement center and it is on the web. even if you go on the with web right now, you would be able to sew the information. over the last few months, it is like trying to figure thut o-lookt at information. moving forward there will be -- figure it out. moving forward we have more specific recommendations >> quickly. i'm going to try to move this along. as commission

owner and one as a parent of three small children, one of whom is in the special education program at sherman elementary, where i am on the school site counsel, and the other two of whom are in preschool in san francisco, one of whom god willing starts preschool in san francisco earlier this year. the availability of preschool spots in san francisco is incredibly limited. it is a bit of a fight, if you do not qualify for services, as my oldest son did, to find a spot. on that ground alone, i think the expansion of stretch the imagination is a wonderful idea. the other brief point i wanted to make as a property owner who is immediately adjacent to the school -- i also think it is a great idea to have these types of services available to us in our neighborhood. having to get three kids to school by oneself as a working parent -- both of us are working. it is quite a challenge. having this type of service available in the neighborhood is a fabulous idea. i am convinced it is good for our property value. that is really the only points i had to make. thank you for the opportunity to address the bo

i'm talking about grant and sherman and sheraton, that's who it was. they had unleashed more carnage than the world had ever seen. they finally decided in the 1871 -- that's why i start my book in that year. they finally said, okay, enough is enough. this boundary, this frontier has been frozen for 40 years in a single place. no other indian tribe ever held it up for more than a couple of years. think of a line between here and ft. worth, and basically that's where the frontier sat for 40 years. well, 35 years. they just said, okay, enough's enough. there's 4,000 of these guys out there. you know, we have 51,000 casualties at gettysburg alone, okay? so this final will, i guess the will to go get them was the beginning of the end of the comanches. that was coupled, of course, with the slaughter of the buffalo where they took their commissary and food away. 187 1, and the guy they sent was this guy named ranald mackenzie. mackenzie was grant's favorite officer in the civil war. and so you have, again, these grim kind of warriors unleashing their guy. aga

sherman talked about. i do have a concern about issuers being able will to pick their own credit rating agency. ive prefer a blind draw. i don't prefer the method that the gentleman from massachusetts proposed. they pay into the trust and there's a blind draw. it's a more efficient system. i do want to ask both of you quickly about the credit rating agencies. i think there's a view on some in this committee and i think other places we need to reduce our dependence on the credit rating agencies. while i believe that is partially true, i think it's also we can't go too far with that. so many things in our investment structure in this country and world wide are based on credit rating. if we took away the conflict of interest and created a blind draw, how would both of you view that as creating a system that would work better. please be brief because i have one more question. >> i think one of e most important things in dodd frank is exposing the methodology. we d to play where's waldo. it wasn't until 2006 th

sherman, for what i hope it will be five minutes. >> thank you, mr. chairman. i think you've produced a high quality report in both section positive. i realize there are some differences. and that is what the press is focused on. and they focused on arguments amongst the members. whether you guys had a good time preparing this this report. it's an absolute irrelevancy to anyone other than yourselves. my own belief if i was writing this report, it would have been much shorter. i focus on one thing as the ultimate cause and that's the credit rating agencies. senator franken and i were able to get something in the bill which i think will solve the problem within a year or two. perhaps one of the more brilliant aspects of the report is that both the dissent and the report mr. chief say pretty much the same thing. the report in chiefs we conclude that the failure was essential cogs in the wheel of financial destruction and point out that moodies was giving its aaa stamp to 30 mortgage-related securities every working day and had had to downgrade 83%. and i see our f

my third question is for either secretary gates or sherman mullin. i was pleased to see research and development for a next generation a bomber. this is important to our long- range strike capabilities. why is standoff insufficient to meet future combatant requirements? what are the limitations within our existing legacy bomber fleet? >> you almost did it in your question. we went through a very rigorous debate to get to the conclusion that we should invest in a new penetrating stealth bomber. we think that capability is vital for the future. there is a great focus obviously on this with respect to the specifics. in a lot of the capabilities we have developed over the years, oftentimes we use it in changes. we think it is broader than that. it was reviewed for both its ability to be developed from an evolving technology. i think there is a very smart acquisition strategy associated with it. it will not be a squeeze it in every way. it is bound in costs. when combined in the platform, it will result in a revolutionary capability in terms of our requir

sherman said, uncle sam is the only one who can grapple the subject. he was determined to see the railroad unit east and west. private companies joined the charge, racing each other to meet in the middle, and eventually a testify graph operator sent out the simple message to the cheers of the waiting nation. the testify graph just -- telegraph just said done, done. now, if he knew we were talking about it today, he would have maybe come up with something more inspiring. [laughter] but overnight, the transcontinental railroad laid the way for a nationwide economy, not a bunch of local economies, but a nationwide economy. suddenly, a cross country trip went from months todays. the cost to move goods and mail plummeted. cowboys drove cattle to rail cars that took them back east. entrepreneurs could sell anything anywhere. after the railroad was completed, a newspaper proclaimed we are the youngest of peoples, but we are teaching the world to march forward, teaching the world to march forward. that's who we are. we are a nation that's always been built to
