i can imagine if i am a person wanting to live on the island. transportation will be one of the first things i consider. that is a great menu of transportation options. cost will end. it might be able to put together some case studies for someone who is living on the island and maybe has a child are working on the island. i was even thinking may be some sort of online rate calculator where someone could figure out their monthly cost by saying i go to oakland to work five days a week, may be a trip to san francisco and the weekend. something great could plug in the scenarios and say at the edge of the month,, this is about what i would pay. >> thank you. >> commissioner richardson: very brilliant. and a wet piece -- he alluded to , we are telling earlier, so we can break it down. it would be extremely very helpful. so we did the exceptions and then we will catch the exceptions and put together whatever plan we have based on the case studies. and you can do that. >> commissioner lai: i did have one follow-up question that i forgot to ask which has

hurricane slammed into port authority call one of the most intense hurricanes on record it devastated the island which was already bankrupt when the storm hit. also on the program housing prices keep going up and up but how much is too much that's a question not only germans have to tackle it's a global problem. and small and medium sized companies here are leading the way when it comes to employ migrants we highlight one variant success story in a very traditional german sector and. it's time for business on d.w.i.m. it's good to have you with us it was a year ago that tropical storm hit the caribbean island of puerto rico the country associated to the united states and considered a u.s. territory has had a rough time trying to rebuild critical infrastructure after the storm critics say the u.s. government didn't do enough to provide relief after the emergency but even when the island some day close this chapter economic problems will be far from over. one year on from the disaster and in many parts of the island rebuilding has yet to begin often just the bare essentials have been repaired from

the u.s. virgin islands. at the end of july, a bipartisan delegation of 16 members to puerto rico and the virgin islands to see firsthand what still needs to be done. it's our goal to expedite the assistance, the cooperation that would be necessary. it was my honor to be joined on that trip by representative nita velazquez of new york, ranking member of the small business community. congresswoman sheila jackson lee who will be joining us shortly of texas and ranking member of judiciary subcommittee on crime, terrorism, and homeland security and investigations, and also a member of the homeland security committee and the budget committee so she takes about three bytes of this apple at least. and, of course, represented stacey plaskett abuse virgin islands ranking member of the oversight and government reform committee of the interior energy and environment committee, a member of transportation infrastructure and agriculture. the three of us, three members and i are part of the 16 member delegation. this month m

also the storm could devastate the barrier islands. day, have they been full trying to get people out of there? >> most of them have been full, wolf, this one behind me, docked a short time ago, cars streaming off, dozens of cars, and then people came off of it. and then this one behind me here did the same. i'll take you to this area where this last ferry docked a little over an hour ago. they're coming from ocrocoke island which is about 25 miles of the of ye east of year, it's one of the most vulnerable islands in these barrier islands. this was the last chance for people to get off ocrocoke island, we talked to two people who did take advantage of this kind of last desperate chance to get off that island. their names are jonathan and joseph. this is what they said about why they decided to get off. >> well, with the category 4, you could have lots of ocean overwash and flooding and i just worry the roof might blow off or windows might crash in so i think it's safer. >> it i definitely did not want to, i packed up everything as well

the possibilities. so let's think beyond treasure island residents. all of the plans that i'm talking about, people have been talking about them now for the last 24 months. policies came out on the trance importa -- transportation. the port of san francisco, so you can continue to compare notes. where do we fit in? and, again, let's go beyond. let's go beyond treasure island and looking at the presentation on demand will also be helpful. if we have a long-range plan, we'll look out for the money. we can ask the state for help. you can write grants to the federal government. it will be based on overall congestion. so you are not only talking about us here as a window to everything else. and that's a plan that's being talked about. people are very receptive to that plan and we have all the operators that are ready at the drop of a hat, but it requires talking to all the other relevant agencies on board, comparing notes, and the plan is already in place. let's just help you implement that. >> we're hoping that through the study that's going on that weta i

>> if we wanted to move we would be able to move off the island to the mainland. we are not allowed to move within the island, police are strictly enforcing a curfew and continue to enforce the evacuation order so we are not at liberty to travel within the island, they would have no qualms about us leaving the island and going to the mainland but getting around might have to be creative. even in the island where we were staying yesterday there was a half foot of water on the road, we saw several official vehicles decide not to risk it and turn around. connell: sunrise a few hours away, the challenge for the rescue workers, stay safe, thanks very much. jillian: tropical storm florence packing was wind than feared but heavy rains could continue for days to come. in the fox extreme weather center you and i were talking about this earlier. part of the problem is it hasn't traveled far, so slow moving. >> it is crawled for the last 20 hours from wrightsville beach to myrtle beach in south carolina. that has taken 20 hours. that is a long time to travel such a short dis

could lundy be the real love island? nel, it's a very special place which visitors fall in love with. sian scott liked it so much, she went for the weekend — and never left. it's probably the most remote community in the west. just 28 people live on this rocky outcrop in the bristol channel, 12 miles from the mainland. it has unique wildlife. the lundy cabbage. it tastes more like mouldy, fermented, gone off cabbage. ..and its own microclimate. the old light, you can't see it yet but it'll come into view in about a minute's time... in the fog... in the fog. what fog? getting on and off can be tricky. i think getting stranded on lundy is just all part of the charm of the island. yet thousands of people flock here every year for a brief island experience. it'sjust a magical island, that's all you can say. wow, amazing. but what's so special about lundy that sian scott gave up everything to come and live here on her own as a permanent resident? are we ready for our lundy adventure? yeah! all right. this is the old light cott

president trump leaves the island, the death count jumps to 34. but still, we weren't satisfied that that was the real flub. >> reporter: so john and leila assembled a team and started digging. >> so we started to call every single funeral home which proved to be a challenge because most of them didn't have power. they didn't have a telephone. and reaching only half the funeral homes, we realized there were 500 deaths. that was nine-times what the government of puerto rico was reporting. early on we realized maybe we don't know the number but we know it ain't this. >> reporter: they would have to sue the puerto rican government for answers. and what they found brought outrage. why did it stay so low for so long? and were you pressured to keep it that way? cancer. it's very personal. at cancer treatment centers of america, we use diagnostic tools that help us better understand what drives each person's cancer. like christine bray. after battling ovarian cancer for several years, her test results revealed a drug therapy that targeted her tumor. toda
