for 3.4 million when in fact at 301 mission under 27 floors, the average unit sells for less than a million and a half. and it didn't hit 3 million till really about 30 stories. >> so, you would disagree with the ucla report's assumptions about pricing of the units? >> exact -- >> any other significant disagreements with their methodology? [multiple voices] >> the overriding assumption, i think the rest of it is sort of -- let me say it differently. if millennium [speaker not understood], if millennium thought they could build a $3 million unit and felt they could sell it on the third floor, i believe they would do t. and i don't think they can do t. those are what the assumptions are and i don't agree with it. >> does anything else come to your mind in terms of things in your mind wrong about the ucla report other than the pricing assumptions? >> i think it's all biased by the pricing, yeah. well -- there are some other subtlies. but the pricing is so overwhelming that drives the analysis. >> okay, thank you very much. does the public sponsor want to add anyth

the average airliner in the united states is a boeing 737. united short haul, southwest airlines.hey take off with a maximum weight of 155,000 pounds. to reduce -- if you take two male attendants and replace them with two female attendants you will save about 100 pounds. that's equivalent of two ounces on a 200-pound man. it doesn't make any sense at all. >> so it the fact is they just want the female attendants because they look good, right? >> you candice cover an extra -- you can discover an extra hundred pounds will be extra in a year of fuel. american airlines or delta can get away with this. they put on a weight limit of 130 pounds. if it rules out the male football players, too bad. >> steve, is this a legitimate concern on the airline's part? >> it is a big, fat joke. it is the idea that -- >> watch your language. that's inpolitically correct. >> this is the form of sexism and beautyism. they are trying to justify by expense. they want to look like singapore airlines and they don't have the honesty to say what they want to do and that's to get the passengers to look at the

states, the average income for households in the united states was about $55,000 a year. that number has dropped while he's been president. it didn't go up, it's gone down. it's gone from about $55,000 a year down to close to $50,000 a year. and now we know that about $1,300 a year has come in bays of the amount of -- has come in because of the am of penetration of illegal aliens in the united states and that's bringing down wages. i would add to your comments as well, mr. brooks, that as a member of congress, i can't vote for anything that's going to take away jobs from legal american citizens. that's who we're talking about when we're talking about amnesty, we're talking about taking away jobs from legal american citizens, from the middle class. why in the world would we do that? i yield back to the gentleman and then if he could yield right back. mr. brooks: i encourage all americans to google black american leadership alliance, and they focus specifically on the impact of the senate gain of eight, amnesty and open borders bill on the b

the u.s. government cannot view this as hostile behavior towards the united states average. that mr snowden has agreed it appears in principle not to release further documents that could harm u.s. interests while he is on russian territory in his words mr snowden's words that goal is attainable now that is an important point because president putin has made this a precondition of asylum he went to great lengths to stress that russia's role in this saga is a humanitarian one and should not be seen as a hostile act to the u.s. he also said that mr snowden's actions were actually in defense of human rights. and your thoughts on that of human rights work usually bears some cost for those involved when this work is done under the auspices of the united states government with its financial and political support it's quite acceptable but when someone criticizes washington the situation becomes much more complicated the incident with the believe in president playing illustrated this. ok andrew one sirs snowden has everything in place all the documents and stop what will happen then

international energy agency concluded that despite some progress in deploying clean energy, that the average unit of energy produced in the world today is essentially polluting as it was 20 years ago. as president obama stated at georgetown university last month, we cannot afford to slow walk our transition to a lower-carbon future. climate change and its consequences are not waiting and neither can we. the good news is the transition to a cleaner global economy presents a great economic for t states. bloomberg news energy finance estimates that private, clean energy investment will more than triple by 2030. we should be fighting to attract that investment here in the united states. but we are at risk at missing out on that opportunity. china and other countries have made firm national commitments to generate more electricity from clean energy sources and that reality is reflected in their current levels of investment. $65 billion investment in china compared to $35 billion in the united states. madam speaker, we should not lose this competition, we should not jeopardize our future and we should

. >> i think the growth of suburban poverty really illustrates that there's no one average poor family in the united states. they're all diverse, they face a diverse set of circumstances and hardships. and because of that diversity and because of the various needs that individuals may have, i believe that the best poverty relief is the most local poverty relief. so while there is political treasure from the federal government to be involved, better to deinvolve more of the programs to more local level where people can be more interacting with people's personal lives. >> what about job creation. to me the mess antidote to offer pe is job creation. do we have policies in place that are getting jobs created in the suburbs now that it seems to be -- they are needed more just as much in the suburbs -- >> that's where jobs are being created. that's the irony. it moved to the suburbs. the jobs have moved to the suburbs but if you don't focus on this population they will move all around and no one pays any attention to them when it comes to making sure that they get some of those jobs. >> this may not be st

for electricity and gas, cable tv, and internet, the bottom line is, in the united states, we don't pay a heck of a lot for water. curtis: at an average cost of about $2.50 for 1,000 gallons of tap water, it is a great bargain. garvin: but the rates that are being charged for water are insufficient to replace existing systems and to expand existing systems. narrator: because original infrastructure investments were frequently subsidized by the federal government, water pricing was often calculated without accounting for the initial cost to build the systems. we made major investments in assets in the '50s, '60s, and '70s. and for the first 40 years of that pipe, there really may not have been many maintenance requirements. we're past that period now. narrator: water pricing based only on day-to-day operation, and not on planning for maintenance and eventual upgrades has resulted in a considerable repair and replacement backlog. allbee: on a national scale, if you looked at what we're spending now, and you looked at the additional investment requirements over the next 20 years, there's a $540 billion difference. man: so one of the grea

the average age for a vehicle on the road for the united states is under 11 years, and not dropping any time soon there are a lot of people driving old vehicles and think about this, susie, 20%, 20% of the vehicles in the united states are at least 16 years old. so that demand is out there. >> mortgage rates are rising, what about auto rates? are they going up and what will happen to sales if they do? >> they are kicking up slightly. at this point it's not an issue. what you see from the auto loans are a couple things, one expanding at the bottom so more subprime loans going out, people with lower credit records. it's not the concern at this point. it's the healthy expansion we tend to see as auto sales increase and another thing is the increase of number of leases being offered. at the end of the day what the auto makers are trying to do is keep the monthly payment under $500 for most buyers and under $400 or $300, they will get those cars. interest rates aren't picking up. >> what people are up on is too much enthusiasm. are they getting too frothy? could they make some of the same mi

the district. in the united states, the average wage for a full-time hour walmart association is $12.57 according toompany, about $25,000 a year above the federal poverty level of $23,050 for a family of four. many part-time workers at the company make little more than minimum wage. proponents say that when walmart reported a net income of $17 billion in sales of $470 billion, in its most recent fiscal year, it could afford to pay better wages. i don't find that persuasive. walmart's ability to pay a super minimum wage is no more justification for paying it than will be allowing an unsuccessful business to pay less than a minimum wage. walmart has grown so large as to make it difficult for today's entrepreneurs to compete against it. the business was born in a competitive marketplace and that's the same environment, not the halls of government, in which walmart should have to justify its continued success. in other words, if consumers believe that walmart destroys more jobs than it creates, or that walmart causes its own employees to require public assistance, or makes it impossible for mom and pop

better over the past two decades, but the pace of improvement is slower than in other high-income countries. >> reporter: on average, life expectancy for men in the united states is 76 years, up from 67 40 years ago. for women, it's now 81, up from 76. but that varies dramatically by region. men living in fairfax county, virginia, are expected to live the longest. about 81 years. but travel 350 miles and men in mcdowell county, west virginia, live on average to just 64 years. that's similar to the life expectancy in gambia, west africa. one of the world's poorest countries. women fair better with the highest life expectancy in marin, krals at 85. and lowest, 72 years in perry, kentucky. on par with vietnam, a nation plagued by poverty. the biggest risk of death? what and how much we eat. >> the most dramatic change in the u.s. in the past 20 years is the extraordinary obesity epidemic. if you look at how much we eat that trumps the fact that we seem to do be doing a little bit more exercise. >> reporter: people living in certain areas of the south have the highest body mass index. men in owsley county, kentucky, is the highest rates of obesity. so do wo

the flexibilatpoinin this project to make those kinds of changes? >> no. as ms. riley describes, on average, 60 and below, but really the reality is because of the direct access to housing, the lost units that the board recently approved throughout mission bay, transbay, we're able to get that on average at 60 even in mission bay, significantly lower. >> okay, thank you. i thank you for that information. i brought up these points mostly because one of my biggest concerns, of course, is affordability and i do know that we are in this city approving thousands of market rate housing that are not within reach of the average san franciscan, which is a real challenge. and i have some real concerns about how we're continuously moving in this direction and not able to do something like in the case of the bayview hunters point shipyard where there was a staggered ami ladder that allowed for various mixed income uses within that particular project. and it's not necessarily a perfect solution to dealing with the affordability of housing in san francisco, but i do think that we -- and i know supervisor avalos has brought it up and others on this board in terms of looking at the larger picture of h

period saudi arabia has agreed to provide the struggling nation with five billion dollars a lion's share of which is an average of products and cash while the united arab emirates well stump up three billion and loans and bank deposits are two contributor option returns he says it's not a gesture of goodwill. the u.a.e. and saudi definitely did not like the muslim brotherhood and so the saudi station al-arabiya quite called it in dubai in the u.a.e. backs the rebels and you go. back to qatar which is backing the most the government is against the military coup so you have both sides using media using financing using weapons sales to back them in egypt all the time the united states we must remember that president obama was backing mubarak dictator up until the end seemingly not quite knowing what he's going to do and perhaps the saudis are threatening him even john mccain the presidential candidate used the word coup for obama we get nothing and in the mainstream media all we get is mom and el baradei another nobel prize winner like obama saying nothing about the house arrest without charge of a democratically elected president let alone the endin

doing these so-called vaccine did you just mention that pakistan has one of the high average of polio and yes i think that the united states does have some culpability here because they were ministering these polio drops and. you know did we really find out about bin laden because of torture like thirty and that's the. that's the bigger problem here is that where we get one narrative which is solidified in the public psyche for ever now thinks is your dark thirty but really that's you know where are the facts the nation of programming but i wanted to sum this segment up by just saying you know you can you can run with whatever theory you want whatever narrative you want but the truth is and this is also really in the guardian that the nine eleven confession tape with some of a lot of back in two thousand and one when he came out and they found in the cave in afghanistan that actually came out there was a cia sting operation from the guardian expose. this is the cia set him up to allegedly confessed to nine eleven my question is why didn't they arrest him if they had him there to confess the crimes of nine eleven in
