but the continuing logic of u.s. intervention throughout latin america justified by the perceived threat of drug trafficking and drug lords. and yet every year we see that the industry thrives. the drugs arrive in the cities, people are consuming them. real issues of substance abuse, community health issues are completely ignored because since the substance is simply deemed illegal, the user is a criminal and a public health or a social health response is completely denied, so any kind of harm reduction strategies, um, are a massive investment in public education, health clinics instead of police forces and criminalization is pursued. and there again one of the key facts of the insidious nature, i think, of the drug war where you have this perception of cartels and cash and kind of cowboy or cops and robbers image of a black market. and that leads us to forget the banality of so much of the, um, the wealth generated by the war itself. police forces in the united states that are funded through asset forfeiture laws, th

so, in many ways, this conversation is a precursor of looking at the logic of the current practice and how counterintuitive the logic is, why we keep the front loading so much to see this repetitive habit picking up the same people, and there's no break in their behavior, criminal behavior. it is also, as it was described earlier, a bureaucratic snafu of juvenile that obeys information not allowed to be shared on the adult level. this handicaps us considerably. we understand all the reasons why, but somehow, someway, there has got to be a bridging of that divide, because it really ill- equips us in dealing with the young offender and the recidivism issue. i do not know how that is going to happen, but i know this has been percolating discussion in the reentry council. well, thank you very much. i know this is a hearing. i want to thank everybody who is here in participation. i appreciate all your work. i do not believe any action is required here. this is a hearing informing us of the rfp and of the communication that is going out. good work, and we look forward to being part of this p

think the people where's it going to see that their church when scotland becomes independent the next logical step is for we're just becoming dependent of course separatism is nothing new to the british isles and the thousands of victims of the troubles in northern ireland are testament to how high feelings can run both in the present day and for centuries past while national sentiment may not be a new phenomenon the reasons for it have changed over the years and in these. current turbulent economic times money talks scotland has oil and gas but while wales was a proud coal producing nation its mines are now closed and it's got some of the highest unemployment levels in the u.k. because of that the older generation is reserved when it comes to independence but young people are filled with national fervor but them independence is less about money and more about nationhood and identity and wales needs to be independent because it is a great country and we do we do in it like joining because we really patriotic i think we're more patriotic than england and we have a lot to say we shouldn't. just

justify itself because it prevents a greater evil there are some real problems with that argument the logical problems as well as philosophical and what i would call value laden problems first is you can never know hypothetical and you never know if your lesser evil action actually prevented the greater evil big cheney spends hours on television and elsewhere and in this book trying to say that his actions prevented a greater evil another attack on the united states and so for well that's his interpretation and my interpretation of the bureaucracy which is probably far better than his because i was buried in it i heard people talking about it every day so bottom line is i know what dick cheney doesn't know because he was in the ivory palace and he can't know horse holders surrounding cheney but people who surround cheney are david addington and john hannah and scooter libby and they killed the cheney what dick cheney wants to hear george tenet told dick cheney what dick cheney wanted to hear oh yes it's working mr vice president we're getting great information and are stopping terrorist attac

north atlantic treaty organization should go home and attack attack europe right that's that's where the logic goes it's here they are you really that there could be a world war one scenario where we see where we sit but but we're flat out of time thank you for the illumination i think i mean this is the sort of the petition tom hayden dot org see if you can circulate it to your friends of this study it discuss that thanks very much tom hartman you got it tom hayden thank you tom it's been nearly a decade since the afghanistan war started and that's a decade too long time to end the wars and bring home our soldiers. crazy alert rise of the cyber war and the rats it appears the advantage in the eternal struggle between cat and mouse has now shifted eighteen researchers at the university of tel aviv have created what they're calling a digital cerebellum that can be implanted into the brains of rats to mimic brain functions that were previously lost so far the robotic brain has been used for only the most simple processes such as causing a rat to blink at certain stimulus but researchers are stil

can buy this car just because you exist just because you're an american citizen or not whatever the logic of taking this if you are is different what they're saying right now though is you can buy you can buy a car that has taillights and drive it on public streets but you can't buy a car that doesn't have to you can buy a car that as a great move right there right right there is there's regulating the action somebody is taking what obamacare as a do is regulated action somebody isn't taking they're saying you sitting in your living room not doing anything just sitting there you have to buy health insurance because we told you that's what you have now it's absolutely was there not a negative action you're alive if you're alive you're breathing if you're breathing you're sitting next to somebody who had tuberculosis you might be can you might be transmitting contagious disease this is a public health issue but you know live is an active process. it is much different than anything else ever regulated by the commerce clause what i don't disagree with you on that let me ask you another questi

on the border i can see the logic of it. s, unless you think that somebody is going to swim up and invade you, there's a lot of swimmers our side wins or god knows what, because the other guys don't need to own beachfront. these guys that we have not come up and in submersibles and submarines and land on the beaches, they don't seem to need to on beachfront properties to dump their merchandise from colombia, drive it on up to the united states. but we continue to forbid, not allow as you all know, for foreigners to own beachfront property since the 1930s. that's on the one hand. we were saying before. we are fantastic in mexico at and thinking stupid laws and think ingenious ways to get around stupid laws. this is a stupid law for a country that wants to attract tourism, that once american retirees to retire in mexico, that wants them to buy houses, buy homes in mexico, but doesn't want them to own them. now, the problem with people, americans and canadians over 65 who have access to mortgage would like to make sure they can

it would be the logical day for terrorists to strike again and the logical place would be america and, new york and washington because-- with no offense to the other great cities in this country-- new york and washington' skylines are the skylines that overseas they know. and, you know, we always say when you catch a terrorist they don't have a map of a corn field in their pocket, they have a map of new york city or maybe washington or chicago. there are some other bigities as well. an so nobody should be the least bit surprised that threats would beade right w and against these two cities. in fact, for no other reason than to disrupt our enomy and our psyche you would think that a lot of these terrorists would just put out stories. >> rose: you say to citizens we are on guard, we know, we are making our presence felt and we're doubling down on ter of wh we do in terms of security? >> yes and one other thing i have that to convince them that i really believe it, which i do. i've always joked that... and it's not a joke because i've done this. i've said to our police commissioneray kel

are not willing to ask those who have done extraordinarily well to help america close the deficit, the logic, the map says everybody else has to do a whole lot more. we have to put the entire burden on the middle class and the port. that is unacceptable to me. that is unacceptable to the american people. it will not happen on my watch. >> the president called for $1.50 trillion in the new taxes. including a minimum tax for those earning more than $1 million. believe it or not, real estate banker is one of the group calling themselves patriotic millionairess, who actually want to pay more taxes. >> i have the use of more deductions and credits to the people who have less. i have the use of accountants and more sophisticated techniques. therefore, on average, millionaires pay a lot less taxes. we should be paying their fair share. >> president obama wants to be reelected in just over a year's time. right now, economic growth is weak and unemployment is high. the president is hoping to reenergize the democrats and appeal to independent voters, too. the democrats hope to rally those voters. the

yeah, it's really more of a class on logic. >> i saw that the math is all based on real-life things,s better for me because i don't like the abstract. >> yesterday, i drew an isometric cube. >> reporter: 130 tenth, eleventh and twelfth graders produce real-life projects in class. they start with sketches and eventually make 3-d computer models. >> these guys as a group are going to take this apart and start doing a 3-d model of the motorcycle. >> reporter: it's a practical hands-on approach that more than prepares these kids for college. >> they come back and say, we're doing in our first drafting class what we learned in tenth grade. so it seems to be a program that's working. >> reporter: you may be wondering how the engineering academy has survived 25 years with all the budget cuts. well, mr. merrill has solicited and received support not only from the parents but also from local corporations and even the port of oakland. their annual model bridge building competition fills the house. caltrans engineers judge bridges made of balsa wood and glue that can hold over 100 pounds of wei

it is thes most logical area if you are trying to promote a high income economy. we have more total energy,

then the logic and the math says that everyone else has to do more. we have to put the entire burden on the middle class and the poor. that's unacceptable to me, and to the american people, and won't happen on my watch. >> the president called for 1.5 trillion in new taxes. and including a millionaire tax for those earning more than million. and one group calling themselves patriotic millionaires that want to pay more taxes. >> i have the use of more deduction asks credit than people that have less. and i have more so -- we pay less and we should pay our share. >> president obama wants to be reelected in over a year's time. by coming out so strongly in favor of taxing the wealth. the president is hoping to reenergize patriots. >> and those democrats and with the slogan, the 2012 campaign is well under way. >> tax warfare will divide this country more and doesn't grow the economy. >> they are gambling that people want cuts and not the taxes. president obama intends to, and now he must way and see if the tax policies are as popular as he thinks they are

i think that is the logical route. and is paid by the community's -- and is paid by the communit ies, and also from the state department. [inaudible] >> in the netherlands, if a road is really bad they will fix it. >> ok, there is a question in the back. >> our director of public works was in the back. he has a real problem here. maintenance is a huge bill. we do not have the wherewithal to maintain what we have. putting in new facilities increases the cost. then when you bring in different types of facilities -- >> we see a lot of the european- style traffic patterns with intricate paving stones and beautiful designs and then we get the response, we do not have the maintenance budget, we cannot maintain these. how do you get around that so you could say this is the actual cost? >> it is an integrated part of running the business. it is the responsibility of the mrs. pawlenty -- it is the responsibility of the municipality and it is the responsibility of the taxpayers. if we build a new highway, we know how much it cost

having been on the board there, fisher being on the board of moma would have been the logical place for a highly resisted by the family and those involved with how a collection for a long time. i am pleased that it is landing where it belongs. i may have additional written comments later. commissioner moore: there is a fine grain of traffic conflict. it is partially because of traffic impacting how how you crossed the third street intersection on markets. there are like cumulative impacts in all of these blocks. there were great solutions for parking their cars -- the success of high-tech is being looked at fairly and squarely, the elements closer and further away. if we choose a corridor in the er -- yerba buena, i'm on page 139. i would ask they are moved closer right behind the marquee theater. i think they created a composition by which the layering of historic and new architecture works very well when you saw the museum of modern art composed well with historic buildings. and we won't see that anymore. i ask that we take a slightly closer look at how the most important views. it ha

willing to ask those who have done extraordinary wealth to help america close the deficit, then the logicthe map says the rebels has to do a whole lot more. we have got to put the entire burden on the middle class and the poor. that is unacceptable to me. that is unacceptable to the american people. and it will not happen on my watch. >> the president called for $1.50 trillion in new taxes, including a minimum tax for those earning more than $1 million. believe it or not, this real estate bankers one of the group calling themselves the patriotic millionairess who actually want to pay more taxes. >> i have the use of more deductions and more credits that people who have less. i also have the use of accountants and more sophisticated techniques, honestly. therefore, on average, millionaires pay a lot less taxes. bottom line, we should be paying our fair share. >> president obama wants to be reelected in just over a year. right now, economic growth is anemic and unemployment is high. by coming out so strongly in favor of taxing the wealthy, the president is hoping to reenergize the democrats

and the logic was that -- i mean, the logic which we want to use with iran is the same one which we agreedmeans that iran should make a first step, say freezing the production of centrifuges. then we freeze the new -- we don't adopt new sanctions, neither in the security council nor unilaterally. >> but do you see any willingness in iran to engage in some kind of cooperative -- >> i believe if iran, if iran gets very clear message that all this exercise is not about the regime change but about nonproliferation issues, i believe we have a chance to start these serious discussions. >> let me ask one final point. you said that the united states and russia have good relations. and yet, last month, prime minister putin calls the united states a parasite and accuses us of being an economy -- a parasite, an economy that lives off others. the exact quote is he said, "a parasite, the country is living in debt. it's not living within its means. it's shifting the weight of responsibility on other countries and in a way acting like a parasite." this doesn't sound like strengthening u.s.-russian cooper

the logic of that is based on the existing footprint, and in this case, the residence is relatively shallow in comparison to the other residences on this block. and the overall death. >> i think this visual is accurate, but we are dealing with the second basement which is the part that is going down past the additional amount. but you are saying that it is not significant enough to be counted against the the rear yard? >> it was what they used when they were in evaluating this house. they felt that because it is a down sloping parcel, there was such a differential that this is actually below the primary living space. >> i realize the open space, as you're saying, they are within compliance. this appears that it gets out a lot farther than anything else. >> i think there would be a stronger impact. if they were the same elevation because it is down sloping and is also a lateral slow on the block as well. >> theoretically, you could put something green above the top of that last lovell and it would look like the rear yard. of a, i will see with the other commissioners have this day. commissio

the left hemisphere concerned with language, logic, orderly organization of ideas. the right hemisphere is thought to be concerned more with fantasy, with musicality, with emergency nation. and the founder of british neurology in the 19th century had an idea that the two hemispheres of the brain, althoughhey're symmetrical, are involved in different functions and we know's a fact. he thought they inhibited one another so that if you have compromise to the left hesphere as you do in dyslexia you can free up creative elements of the right hemisphere so one of the reasons people with dyslexia might be more creative-- this is just an idea-- is that they free up create poif ten shl that is latent in the right hemisphere. and there's independent evidence of no mall people, two young investigators taking different approaches have found that if you solve a problem with an insight, an ah-ha phenomenon, a eureka phenomeno a part of the right hemisphere, the right superior temple eye us are lights up. so this is very soft evidence but we're focusing in on aspects of the right h

i can't follow the logic of saying a juvenile as an adult. a juvenile is a juvenile. an adult as an adult? give me a definition. if you look at the rich and the privileged, you ever see that movie "stepbrother? these guys are 40 years old, oh, my baby. and some 14-year-old, some orphan, is an adult? make clear, make the definition clear. it should be based on age. tell me what age you want me to prosecute as an adult and i don't care who your daddy is. if he is under that age, he is a juvenile. >> justice is in the gray. nothing is ever black and white. we need to have a much more effective response. does do everything we can to stop our kids from getting into the juvenile justice system in the first place. the other is a judge to do that. there were a enough partners brought to the table. they were all there, health education focusing on the best response. it has gotten federal funding and is an effective way to deal with highly -- to look at how we deal with kids in the system. at the end of the day, you want somebody experienced. i will only exercise in extremely is

. >> that would be the logical thing to say. the problem is it they will block everything to just say, to not point that out, is going to lead to continued gridlock. sometimes, when you have a group, and it is not all republicans, but it is a group in control, the only way to break through is to say, you are causing the problem, and letting our democracy work. >> ok. thank you very much for joining us. among those tea parties republicans, senator schumer said there is senator rand paul of kentucky. i asked what he would like to hear tonight. senator, the president will propose a combination of tax increases and spending cuts. it is in a hope to get this economy jump start it. what is there in the package he is likely to put forward? >> i have not seen the details of what is coming forward. i think it is a lot of what the attitude is toward businesses what is stifling businesses in our country right now. it is that you cannot be in favor of creating jobs unless you like the job creators. everything that seems to, from the administ
