i was the editor of "the legal times." steve brill had bought it, and he wanted it to have deep and juicy coverage of the legal and lobbying profession, and the mission that he gave me and that i had my eyes set on was to really get behind the curtain of powerful lobbying firms on k street. no one had really tried to cover them comprehensively before, so i had my work cut out for me. >> what do you think has happened to that story in the last 20 years to today? >> justifiably, it has drawn more attention from local reporters, just the role of politics and the role of lobbyists as the middlemen. that has gotten so big. we have had so many scandals here in washington, many of which, i hate to say, i have covered myself. that has been out of that system. >> where were you educated? >> i grew up in new york city and went to a school there and -- a private school there and i went to harvard for college and no graduate school. >> when did you get interested in journalism? -- where did you get interested in journalism? >> in colle

she is the new executive editor of the "new york times." she is the first woman to hold that position since the paper was founded in 1851. she was a former investigative reporter who rose to prominence as a washington correspondent and editor. she joined the "times" in 1997 and has held a variety of positions including managing editor and washington bureau chief. jane mayer of the "new yorker" mag zen said "she i aouors defender of the truth and she is fearless." welcome. that is love affair, new >> it certainly is. but that's brought a lot of happiness and delight and to my life and my husband's and children's lives. >> rose: so it melts your heart down? >> it does. but hit in the beginning leaves you sleep deprived and worried about just about erything. >> rose: this is not the first dog? >> no, no. we h a dog before scout. we had a very hearty west highland white terrier who lived to be 16. >> rose: and so when that dog died did you immediately go looking for scout? >> no, my heartas like broken completely when buddy who was the westy whe

at the time, we spoke of the department's initial response. there are approximately 289 heat complaints in 2010. since that time, the commission asked us to look more into detail but i came to code enforcement response issues. that universe has dropped down. with that, i would like to discuss the rose -- revised figure that was submitted to you for the purpose of this presentation and subsequently to its of it be, giving you recommendations on the revised exhibit day. with that, i will go ahead and start, from left to right. so, as i indicated, we have been talking about for 2010 was 285 complaints in the department. obviously, not all of those were determined to be verified complaints. typically, once they received complaints from the department of building inspection, there are usually other items as well, which take up the attention of the inspector. one of the things that we were asked to do was to look at and identify for you the number of repeated properties that have a heat complaint within the timeframe. within the 285 alleging heat com

the top. is this a good time or a bad time to be running the new york times? >> it is a good time. our future is very bright both in print and digitly. we have more readers than ever who have subscribed to the newspaper for two oearsr more and our audienceitig dally hasig while we have gone to pay a subscription model. tavis: let me talk about a couple of issues. your sense of twhornts "new york times" and the media more broadly. now we have the president selling us we're getting out of iraq at the end of the year. was the media too complacent? did we not ask the questions that werked have asked in the first place? -- we should have asked in the first place? >> it is a question, tavis, that i have thought a lot about over the years. the war in iraq started march 19, 2003, and when i look back on the way the media played its role back then, i think one thing we didn't do enough of, although there were a few news organizations that did, is listen to the dissenting voices inside the bush administration, particularly at the c.i.a., who thought the evidence that iraq had a weapons of mas

so this is a snapshot of the range of on-time performance in the system. here is something that you have asked about several times in the discussion. what i would say here is something that we have talked about, which is that the number of switchbacks that done are direct reflections of the quality of service. again, a switch back as a service management technique. we do not get up in the morning and said that our goal is to have 10 switchbacks. if we fill our runs and manage the service well, the switchbacks should be minimized, as the data shows april, maine, june, switchbacks high. with the ball games coming back, many times in the first part of the year, we have historically rent the giants service, and generally we had to do with existing service trains. we had buses out on the avenues many of those nights. as we have begun to build the amount of service back up, the number of switchbacks will decline. one thing i do want to offer you -- i do not have it with me, but what we will do going forward, because i think it is something we have talked about, a

the beginning. say when mr more good. twenty times you know we would pick him up on the radio we'd have the search blocks around the area in we're always you know would always miss and. as time goes by pablo escobar popularity seems to increase. abating the authorities by luck or design makes him into a hero. in the rundown neighborhoods the poor on his side. oh yeah i got it problem way here he wouldn't even need to us. he's welcome here any time in our home he's welcome with open arms he will always be welcome. escobar also finds easy refuge with his cronies from the cartel and other traffickers on whose loyalty he can rely now more than a decade and a half later most i'm no longer alive. all that are left are some members of the escobar family who alone know how the godfather managed to remain at liberty for so long. maybe they might finally told. according to some reports his son from pablo and his widow maria victoria have sought refuge in argentina. his brother roberto. and is younger sister marina hostility. the escobar family

i had summer break from teaching and i just sat down from the time it was morning to the time it was cocktail hour. i always say this because cocktail hour got earlier everyday because it was so hard to write this book when i had to write it in a certain period of time like that. what i had done finally, in the end, when it's done i thought it was the perfect situation. i had to be in that situation to write this particular book because that was the situation that the character steven was in. he was in a place he didn't want to be. he was far from people he wanted to be close to. he was not in his territory. that's how i felt writing by myself, far from home, not wanting to do it everyday from the time i got up to the time i got drunk but i did. and the second half was written all in a month. and it worked for this book. i can't say it might work for every other book it probably wouldn't work for any other book. i started this book in third person and thought for sure as a young man's voice in first person. i went in third person and i was 5 pages in and said, this doesn't sound right

the story of pablo's time on the run is something i'm familiar with. in fact by probably know more about it and most. beginning in one thousand eight hundred three i spent most of my time with pablo we were the best of friends two brothers that were inseparable we did everything together including during the time when he was in hiding with. the remaining fifteen minutes of the interview proved to be less fruitful as agreed to tell us though that while public was on the run he was always able to stay in touch. from his prison cell roberto used a phone that he had missed t.v. set to communicate with his brother. i made a phone to my t.v. set all right rick and turned it into a tougher. visitors would only see the t.v. . my brother any time. i change my voice and ask him. how are you doing what are you up to the right time. june one thousand nine hundred three one year since i had escaped from the cab to drop a special unit has no idea where he is and he moves around the city under the very noses of the police. the government decides to tighten the screws.

for us, i often feel very guilty because of the time that i spend up side of my home, and the little time sometimes i have for my kids. it is very difficult for me to give advice to anybody. i know things we did at the beginning. we used to bring our kids everywhere. if i had to work in argentina, which took them with us and have a professor with us all time -- all the time, taking them with us. but then they needed other kids and to interact with other kids. it was very good, though. i remember i did with me a pharaoh in 1993 -- -- mia farrow in 1993 said it was good that i take my kids to the other country, because she was raised in hollywood and thought it was like the whole world. she said, "it cost me my life, when i realized there were kids in the world suffering with a different life than i had. it was a traumatic thing for me ." for me, it was very important for my kids to see other realities, kids in mexico, how they live, or in argentina, in spain, in other places, so they do not believe the world is reduced to the beautiful grass in beverly hills. the realities of the world
