sullivan, welcome. mr. sullivan: thank you, chairman mccain, senator reed, members of the committee. i have a written statement for the record, but i would just like to take this time to briefly highlight what we consider to be the most important challenges facing the program moving forward. in addition to my written statement, i report to this committee and others which was issued on april 14 contains more details on the program's progress to date. first, although the program has managed costs very well since its breach and subsequent rebaselining in 2012, it still poses significant future affordability challenges for the department and the congress. as the program begins procuring more aircraft, the department is expected to spend on average about $13 billion per year over the next 22 years until all planned purchases are complete in 2040. these annual funding levels will present challenges as the program stacks its funding priorities against other large acquisitions including the b-21 bomber, c.c. 46 tan

elizabeth sullivan is 105 years old, and that did not stop her from throwing out the first pitch. the crowd went wild as she took the mound and sullivan held a news conference afterwards. >> i got my degree and that was fun with the hat on and getting married was fun but this was great too. >> sullivan also talked about her daily ritual, she drinks three dr. peppers a day. >> a look at stories coming up later on "action news" at 4:00. the fbi is giving more details of how it hacked into a terrorist iphone, what the director says about what agents were able to do and whether or not it puts other iphones at risk. that is coming up today at 4:00. >> that does it for "action news" at 4:00, don't forget to join us for "action news" later at 4:00, 5:00 and 6:00. >> i'm rick williams have a nice afternoon and be careful out there. we'll see you a little bit later. >> announcer: get ready, because we're about to take your day from tired to "chew-spired." it's an instagram inspiration. michael is cooking up an incredible dish inspired by a "chew" viewer. then, he knows a thing or two about

secondly, the second vignette my fieldwork introduced me to the work of the leone sullivan foundation, some of of you might know. sullivan was philadelphia-based preached preacher, he's pictured here and he was involved in the civil rights movements and he's pictured here at martin luther king jr. it's interesting for many reasons he might be known to some of you because he was involved in anti- apartheid activism of a sort that led him to create the sullivan principles working abroad that are now caught in business as classes all over the united states. so in 1991 his organization and foundation creates a series of summits. sullivan writes the two biographies and he writes about having a vision that he is supposed to do work that unites people of african descent and does things to draw them together. so for him this is bringing businesses and helping to develop business and philanthropy projects. he writes in one of his biographies that i had heard and heeded the call from god in africa and african-americans and others of the two at least build a bridge. he starts in part extending t

and i'm happy today, thrilled to introduce louis sullivan, dr. louis sullivan who is, i'm going to have to read, because this is a long list of things. he's a policy leader, a minority health advocate, an author, a physician, an educator. he serves as secretary of the u.s. department of health and human services under george bush and was founding dean of the morehouse school of medicine, and today dr. sullivan will be discussing his recent memoir, "breaking ground: my life in medicine," so welcome. we're very happy to have you. >> thank you. [applause] >> this is a bit different because often i do fiction books, occasionally memoirs. but your story, there's a lot to talk about here. and i wanted to just begin, i mean, it's a hard thing to say to somebody, you know, hi, can you synopsize your life in all of two sentences. but i wanted you to just in some just very brief way tell the audience what this book covers. and then i will delve in, and we'll start true going into -- start going into specifics, and then we'll build from there. >> well, than

sullivan, i'm sure he would love to answer them. here. >> hi, thank you. it was great listening to your stories. a couple of months ago anthony scalia passed but made a comment of permanent action and how service to minority because it would get them into colleges where they could do well at and as college graduate it makes me think, i shouldn't have been in my school, did i get there because i'm black or -- and i stopped, okay, not true but then i thought about young people of color applying to colleges and i was wondering, you know, hopefully their reaction was not -- was, you know, to ignore him. i was wondering what you thought about the comment and what you think about action. >> i find that condescending. affirmative action is to try to right many of the wrongs that occurred from slavery and the period of segregation, et cetera where whites got an advantage because blacks were not allowed to compete. so the residue really is still with us today so if you are white and you were a slave owner and you became wealthy because of the laborer of those slave

sullivan and doctor gilmore though. would like to hear the answer to that question secretary kendall. >> i was thinking as my colleagues were answering, i think it's a combination of thing, at the end of the day having a successful program depends on a handful of things. they are going to be complicated which starts with reasonable requirements and it has to have professional management and power to do his job. you have to have adequate resources, you have to have a system that basically will support people doing their thing. in our system as others have mentioned there is a very strong bias that is built into were structured toward optimism. it's easier to get a program funded of a cost less. people. people on think faster and cheaper and to do more. most of the problems i've seen in acquisition stem from being in a hurry, and being convinced for whatever reason that things will be cheaper, better, faster than they will actually be. my office was formed in 1986 because this problem was so pervasive. i think we have had

sullivan? >> yeah. i think depending on the mission scenarios and things like that, certainly it's a critical thing. i don't know if i'd want to be a pilot and watch the screen go blank. but it's a spec -- i assume it's a spec the contractor has and it's in development and we've talked to the program office about this. and it's very serious problem but 2b had issues and they worked through those and i would hope that they can do the same with 3-i and i think it will be the same thing with 3-f. so eventually i would hope that they will work that out and get it to whatever the spec is which i think will support the war fighter. if they do that -- that's why the timing is so critical. because you'd want that done by iocs, obviously. you'd want to be able to go to iot&e with problems like that under your belt as opposed to adding that to the burden of the operational testers. >> i'm going to ask mr. stackley to follow up but considering this is our last day for votes, i want to be, you know, sensitive to me

but our jamie sullivan can tell you more about the traffic. she is monitoring that aspect of this story. jamie? jamie: brad, it is rough out there right now. i want to start with the current shot that we have. the chopper overhead. this is the inner loop. traffic is moving near route 450. it's the issue with the outer loop of course. all of the lanes blocked. we are hearing it may be a few hours that they have the outer loop closed. if you are thinking you head home around 5:00 and it may be cleared up at that point it's like it wil cleared up. all of the lanes blocked. look at the backup. this is a big backup. we are seeing this traffic bumper to bumper. comparatively seeing you can see the inner loop how traffic is moving. as we move to the maps i want to talk about how big the backup is and where it begins. seven miles currently and building as we get into the thick of the afternoon rush. you start off with the delays past richie marlboro road and continue north. they are of course diverted you off at route 50 because it's just past that po

sullivan: mr. pr? the presiding officer: the senator alaska. mr. sullivan: i ask that the quorum call be vitiated. the presiding officer: without objection. so ordered. mr. sullivan: i am glad to see my good friend from indiana on the floor here talking about a really important issue that the administration certainly won't talk about and, to be honest, not many other members of this body talk about nearly enough. as my colleague from indianamansed this morning, the commerce department -- the u.s. commerce department came out with some big news. they said the u.s. economy grew at .5% g.d.p. growth this first quarter of 2016. that's one half of one percent. that is a horrible number. now, mr. president, i'm going to make a prediction. i don't think anybody in the media, if they're still up there, is going to talk about this. nobody talks about this. and, you know what? in the old days, whenl it was a republican -- whether it was a republican administration or a democratic administration, if the u.s. economy was growing at .5% g.d.p. growth -- essenti

all lanes are currently closed and being detoured on route 29 northbound right on sullivan way. so with there not being a lot of traf thk morning, your best bet is to follow those detours. here's the schuylkill expressway. you can see no problems in either direction. we do have a disabled vehicle in the right-hand shoulder of the eastbound lanes, of course, not creating any problems. still a 13-minute trip. average speeds up there still. also mass transit. if you plan to take any transit, you will be okay. everything is running on time or close to on schedule. >>> take a look at this video showing a passenger punching a trolley driver while he was at controls. next why the police say the man did it. >>> celebrating. we'll show you how philadelphia is getting ready to host the parade for the villanova wildcats. >>> at 4:14 t here's a live look at your airport. tracking showers and thunderstorms. they shouldn't be a problem, but keep it in mind. we'll have the updated forecast. right now the airport is 52 degrees. please in delaware county need help this morning to find a septa pa

sullivan -- dr. gilmore, you said that the ioc is likely to be delayed. do you have any idea of how long that delay would be in ioc? >> are you speaking, mr. chairman, about the ioc with the air force with block 3i? >> yes. >> i think it's unlikely the air force will meet its objective date, which is mid-2016, but it could meet its threshold date, which is later in the fall. >> in this issue, mr. sullivan, of the pursuing a block by, can you provide any examples of a program pursuing a block buy or multiyear procurement strategy prior to full right production decision? >> you're referring to kind of the proposal right now to buy aircraft in a three-year buy. >> yes. >> no, i don't have any examples of that. the only example i know of a block buy situation is our usual multiyear procurements, which require a lot of criteria to show that the industry base is stable, the design is stable, they're ready to produce. usually it comes much later in a production line. so i've never heard. i don't think there's even any criteria for that kind of a block buy. >> dr

sullivan and dr. gilmore though. i would like to hear the answer to that question from secretary kendall and general bogdan. >> i was thinking as my colleagues were answering i think it's a combination of things. but at the end of the day, having a successful program depends on a handful of things, but they're all incredibly difficult and complicated. it starts with reasonable requirements. then you have to have professional management that is empowered to do its job. you have to have adequate resources. you have to have a system that basically will support people doing the right thing. in our system, as i think others mentioned, there's a very strong bias that's sort of built into our incentives structure towards optimism. it's easier to get a program funded if it costs less. people want everything faster, cheaper, and they want it to be able to do more. most of the problems i've seen in acquisitions stem from being in a hurry and being convinced for whatever reason that things will be cheaper, better, faster than t
