teresa howe: we fabricate a number of parts for the various launch vehicles here, so, employees could be exposed to a number of different chemical substances, fibers, vapors, gases, various liquids, corrosive-type materials. tracy schile: the goal of the industrial hygienist is to undertake preventive measures that keep our workers from being exposed to chemical, physical, and biological hazards. okay, so the time i started you is 10:05. and then this is to get the short-term exposure limit, so i'm gonna wave at you to get you to stop what you're doing. at 15 minutes, i'm gonna change out that cassette. okay. tracy schilf: we're looking for the results of what the fume exposure is gonna be for his welding process. he's using a... what's called the "rod 4-10," a stainless steel rod, it has some chromium in it, so that's what's gonna be our biggest concern. teresa howe: engineering controls are the primary tactic that we would like to use in occupational health and safety to keep exposures away from the employees. those are methods that we use, or perhaps devices that we use, to actuall

the southern association of colleges and schools says there are still major questions about how and why teresa sullivan was fired back in june. she was reinstated later that month after public pressure. the school board of trustees says they followed proper procedures during the ouster. the board will decide what action to take at a meeting in december. >>> a school board is erasing all votes by a former member who lived outside her district. "the washington post" discovered last week that rosalyn johnson had been living outside her district for four months. she moved to new carrollton to take care of her mother. the board evoteded ed tto erasf her votes. two others are vying for her seat in november's election. >>> some many campaign signs ar already coming down. road crews are removing hundreds of signs from medians and intersections on state road highways in maryland. many of the signs were placed there illegally. this has nothing to do with politics. the highway administration will also remove any illegal commercial signs. some of the signs are for or against the maryland d.r.e.a.m. act. h

three but these two parties collude to keep alternatives off the ballot i never knew how bad it was or read teresa's amazing book math that almost convinced me let's not even try if it was but we are here and we have the nightmare story about getting kicked off the ballot including getting kicked off in illinois. but. we can't we can't let up and. certainly run off voting would be a great solution but there are parties that are benefiting from the system we have now they're not going to put it into place so we need that there is a many people who belong to every political part of this can't be partisanship anymore this should be the people of the united states are not going to go around saying get the corrupting money out of our government let's start abiding by the constitution and amisom puro presidency the strength of our constitution and our out seem like the system that makes sense and provides a true democracy for the people of this country rocky where we're out of time in here going to have a lot of time during this debate i think you still much for coming and i see this thing so take it gett

teresa. so the next three days work out like this. we'll jump to 79 degrees tomorrow. by sunday the 80s return and then look at howse we get to that 90-degree mark as we head into wednesday and thursday of next week. it's going to be warm so make sure you keep that summer wardrobe handy. you don't want to put away that tank top not yet, mike inouye. not just yet. >>> this is southbound 280 looking toward us -- actually northbound 280. so there's the slowdown right now. let me show you on the map. the center of your map looking at northbound 280 coming off the 680 interchange. i saw a lot of slowing. look at 101 as well approaching 880 at the top of your screen. that first burst extending north into santa clara. now, we do have some issues west 580 out of the altamont pass. we're seeing speeds start to dip into livermore. the mist and drizzle may affect your drive and we do see slowing coming through first street through livermore and that's the same area we see the change in the climate. looking at the dublin interchange with a little chae as well so plan to that out of the tri-valley. dramatically improving over

teresa, president and ceo of latino and an msnbc contributor. thank you both for being here tonight. >> thank you, reverend. >> senator reich, let me start with you. you've been writing an article about howng out to voters? >> undoubtedly, the voters are getting a sense that romney is not on their side. it's not just the policies and tax plan that gives the rich a huge benefit, at the same time cutting most of the programs that are for the poor and middle class and medicare, medicaid, and so forth. but it's also side remarks. for example, the videotape of romney saying he doesn't care about or he's not worried about 47% of americans who are pampered and who are not taking responsibility for themselves. it's romney himself. i think in the debates romney has two big problems that he's got to try to overcome. one is mathematics. he's got to show what loophole he's going to close. the second is authenticity. he's got to show that authentically he's someone that cares about average working people. he hasn't done both. he's losing ground because of both problems. >> when you look at the new gallup poll, be for example, it shows that the majority of americans think that the president is a bette

how is the debate praep going? >> it is going great. >> joining us is steve kornacki, my colleague and the co-host of "the cycle" on msnbc and maria teresac contributor and the president of voter latino. steve, a new political poll shows the president getting high marks for personal likability, as you can see. well ahead of romney. does he risk that likability by going in tomorrow and throwing some punches? >> to a certain extent, but i happen to think that's a little bit of an overrated concern because you saw the opposite. you saw, i think, the strategy the last time was to preserve the likability. entirely different problem developed, and that is the guy just looked weak. he looked like he didn't have any fight, didn't have any life in him. i think there's a hope on viewers' parts they're going to he see the guy has some blood in his veins. if that means pressing romney harder, if that means raising questions about romney's tax plan that he didn't raise in the first debate very aggressively, i think that's a chance at this point -- >> the 47% for example. >> being too nice just gave romney one of the biggest debate bounces we've ever

understanding of how he can attack and more importantly, i want to make sure i keep an open mind among the moderates who i need to win at this election. >> dana mill ban, maria teresak you. >>> a romney surrogate with the most offensive charge against the president yet. stay with us. >> number one, pre-existing conditions are covered unmy plan. number two, young people can stay on their family plan. that's already offered in the private mshth place. >> jerry, just remember, it's not a lie if you believe it.

teresa. >> today melissa setting the record straight. i was never a dancer. >>> whoopi versus ann. new york. >> tell me howhoopi goldberg blasting right-wing author ann coulter on "the view" yesterday. coulter on the show to promote her controversial new book. >> please stop, please stop. you're saying, that, what, because liberals have abandoned black people now, because, what, i don't get it. >> i don't think that liberals every cared about black people. >> that's [ bleep ]. >> earlier, we spoke with coulter and she explained the point of her book >> it has been about how racism helped get the most liberal president we have ever had. >>> lara's flea market makeovers. new york. former "insider" host lara spencer now on "good morning america" taking her passion of turning trash into treasures on hgtv. two teams have $500 and 24 hours to restore and resale some diamond in the rough items. >> you're doing a lot of thinking and the clock is ticking. my mom started taking me flea marketing when i was a little girl. i could always see the good bones behind the bad finish. >>> we showed you this viral video prom
