no one seemed to care. i do it because what happened in columbine should have happened in my neighborhood, and it did not. there was no one there for me when this happened to me. [applause] there were no counselors, and nobody come into my house to ask me questions about what happened. the already labeled my son in the papers as a gang member. they labeled him as a drug dealer. no be had came to me -- no media came to me to ask me about my child. the people in my community seamen visible -- seemed invisible, and that seems unfair. i do because i want to see justice. i want to look at the person who killed my son and asked him why. why did you kill my son? what was so -- what did he do that allow you to shoot him point blank with four bullets in the face? what would make you do such a thing? i want to meet the individual, to let him know i have already forgiven you. if i had not for giving you, i would not be here today. i have to forgive you, but i want to know why. why do i want to know why? i want to get you k

jail is going to do for him. love nothing more than to send both boys to you home. i think you as a mom, why you're crying your heart out back there, knows that's not the right thing right now. kenneth is on the verge. he's on the verge of doing something either really horrible in his life and taking him away from you forever or he's on the verge of maybe being able to turn the corner. maybe if we hold his hand and help him turn that corner he'll be able to do that. today what i'm going to do is make him a ward of the court and order that he be placed appropriately. but i will set his matter for review in three months, in any event. and as it relates to kentrell, i think this is a young man that probably the juvenile court system was designed for in some respects. i couldn't let him walk away from us without trying to get him to a point where he's at least literate and can function in some type of a job. today the court is going to make him a ward of the court in order that he be placed at idtc, the indiana develo

>> well what they are trying to do is two very hard and important things. one is try to get those economies working again, improve competitiveness and keep them growing again and that is a very difficult and tough process and requires really hard reforms in these countries but also trying to make sure they put in place the institutions to make monetary union work, they have a common currency, a single monetary policy but unlike thees you, national governments in response to how much they borrow and how much they spend, and they have national control over their financial systems, so what they are trying to do alongside those economic reforms. not. >> rose:. >> rose: they can't print money. >> they need to work toward fiscal union, fiscal fromism and they give control over how much they borrow to a central authority and give up control over their financial system to a central authority and have a broader central back stop to the financial system. those two things, those economic reforms for long-term growth and those government reforms are necessary, absolutel

that's a good place to do it. but you always want to do it at the safest location. so if the street is the safest location, that's where you would do it at. this house here fell over. doesn't have something called a sheer wall. so it's just a platform or a platform or a balloon, nothing that keeps the wall from racking, they call it. so you want to make sure that the building that you are in are sheered. this is a connection between the plate, stud and the bottom plate. tie it all together. unreinforced masonry building. safe building or not such a safe building? not safe at all. you have deep set windows, arched windows, metal plate, then we can work. weak morter, what is that? brick on top of brick on top of brick. there's an ample of the header row, you see how they are turned perpendicular to each other, you can see the header rows in this one, see the brick going the other way about every 5 or 7 rows. deep set windows. here's a close up of one of those plates. a parapet wall is a clue that this building is an unreinforced building. which direction can that build

i do not want to seconde is built there. -- i do not want to see this place stay they can forever. i do not want to see another solution that could not work. this trust has not had income. two years. we were getting hate from the abc. we let it slide to see if we could, everybody down -- calm everybody down and find a good operator, hopefully a gay operator. i got pressure from the abc to get it done. that is why we're here today. under the 2358, there is a time frame on this aspect under the state code. there is precedent over city code. we're trying to do what was required by the abc. we want to reach out to the community. obviously he would not have an even amount of people for and against because there had not been outrage. they would not be here today. supervisor campos: is the owner willing to come and appear before the committee? but my client is not here. he is involved in some other things up state. i will speak to him and asked him. but we will not agree to a continuance just because of the time constraints and abc telling us to get this done. supervisor campos: you talked

what we try to do is think creative. we try to create an internship programs, where we try to confuse -- infuse youth. we utilize a lot of non-western ways of trying to have youth identified. we infuse political education so they can make a good choice. there are other programs like oasis. there are not many opportunities, not everybody could work -- all the work permits required. it also requires a social security number. alternative pathways are a good way to go, such as those internship opportunities. use these venues as an opportunity to have kids reflect and make positive choices by leading them to a path of self- determination. >> it is the mayor's youth employment program. the mayor has made a commitment to employ as many youth as possible. that is something that we hope will help. i want to thank all of our panelists today. give them a round of applause. [applause] >> the way we structured this panel, a short presentation to introduce the topic of neuroscience. then we will go to ask questions of all the different

ewing got to do anything. there is nothing you have to do. -- you ain't got to do anything. there is nothing you have to do. they get involved with other gang members and they get worse. the thing we have to do, and if we want it to work, i believe everybody is redeemable. i really believe that. [applause] it's not so, i would not be here. you know? i know i am making an impact on society. i know that. the thing we have to, as the community, -- come as as a community. that is the problem. when i am ready to go to juvenile hall, i have problems getting a pass. and i go there all the time. just to be able to make contact. the same person that is giving me the past don't want to give me a pass all of a sudden. we have to come together as a community and set aside the status, set aside the power. come together to work for a common goal to make our community better. [applause] >> there is a theme emerging, even as we are listening, about leveling the status in these collaboration's. everybody is equalized. i am hearing these words over and over again. tough love, does that help?

next year, we could figure out a way to do a line item for outreach. and a counter or you could go and ask questions. that would go a long way. >> thank you for this the opportunity to speak. i wanted to make a brief comment with respect to outreach and how better we could perhaps accomplish that. one of the wonderful things that has happened is partnering with the office of small business through regina and other efforts to combine forces and go out into the communities and educate business owners. it is critical that the outrage be conducted in language other than english and that happened through merchant association groups as well as we're starting to partner with some of the entities out there that provide pro bono legal assistance to business owners. they do not tend to happen -- handle disputes but weaving that component in to those workshops is another way to partner and broaden the outrage. -- outreach. supervisor mar: thank you. next speaker. >> i am the owner of a small business on twenty-fourth street. i have been as many business owners and

[ applause ] so i'm proud to be a woman in the civil rights movement, and i hope that all of us who are here today can embrace the whole thought of us just being ignited, being fired up and ready to work. over the next months, we have some important work to do. and we've got to really have that energy to run the next course and we've got to do it together. you know, the one thing about women is we push one another along. you know you can call your sister and your -- your fellow woman on the job or wherever and say i just need a little bit of encouragement, and we will help you get to the next place, and what they say behind every man, every powerful man is a strong woman, so we have the energy that we need, but we've just got to kick it up and be reignited, just be reorganized, you know, to do the work that is necessary at this time. i want to talk quickly about a few points, an

we need to hear from him tomorrow as well. we do to address that issue of whether we neeé9@inspector becker, i am sorry. so while she is conferring, why do we take up the issue of officer becker? here's my view of the situation. i understand why the mayor wants -- had this rebuttal testimony. i think this rebuttalçñ is completely redundant to where you have in officer danielle's decoration. your proffer is in his declaration which has been admitted into evidence. i would be inclined to reject the request for officer becker to appear for for their rebuttal testimony but i will give you a chance to argue it. >> thank you. à that your testimony would be consistent but this is a factual dispute. the sheriff said he did not make certain statements. i apologize. this is a situation where there is a factual dispute and the sheriff had said he did not make certain statements about his weapon the night he was arrested. it seems that if there is to ã9qj relevant to resolving that factual disputes and i think the testimony is consistent but i

>> well, i mean, it's definitely made it a lot easier to do. the students that we're working with now -- i mean, you know, tom talking about the kind of ripple effect. >> yeah. >> the connections that he's making to other histories and how they are all related, so i'm thinking -- so that's really important, too. but what i am really focusing on now is the sort of one-on-one encounters, so not the ripple effect, but how can these stories have impact and make meaning for individual students today? you know, milwaukee still has a lot of these same problems, problems of poverty and segregation, we're not graduating enough kids from high school. and these kids will come together to work on this project, you know, learning about the civil rights past. they have this appreciation for leaders that they see who were struggling for human rights in milwaukee in the 1960s, and they are very consciously deciding we want to be leaders, too. and that kind of investment is i think something that could really benefit the city and these individual students as wel

where to go to do that, where to go to get assistance. we are also a resourced. we do see people in our office, many of them are a year or two out from even opening their business, so we will ask them what their credits for is, have they done their business plans, do they know what they're capital needs are going to be, how much money they have, how much money they are going to need to open their business. based upon those questions, we will direct them to the sba for workshops, courses. there is other entities that also provide workshop courses score as well in terms of helping to write business plans. also helping to educate the distinction between the micro lender, our bank, and our larger financial institutions and how those lending -- what is the difference in how this entities will lend, in addition to the sba loans that are available. also in response to the economic crisis, which hit a couple of months after we open our doors, the mayor reinstated the revolving loan fund, and we partnered with tmc working solutions, which is a micro lender, to provide a l

they wouldn't have anything to do with it. so at that point i kind of drove home thinking what am i doing here? their big compromise was they would allow the book to go to europe and asia and the u.s. information libraries but that would be it. it would not be an official part of the bicentennial in the united states. i guess they were afraid we would get too radical. i don't know. that happened and the wonderful story about my coming into arms services with my wonderful african-american colleague, rondell lumzs and there were no african-american women in the armed services and the chairman went ballistic and only gave us one chair to share. because he said we were each worth only half of his regular members and he vetoed our coming on the committee and wanted absolutely no part of it. well, thank you very much and welcome to washington. that was an interesting thing, barney frank, a good friend of mine, he said that was the only half ass thing i did when i was there, but i'm not sure that's true. i figure he didn't know about

we're going to do this. i'm dedicate indicating to -- i'm dedicated to them and the fact that many of us who are the sons and daughters of immigrants -- and frankly that includes almost all of us in in country -- understand that the diversity of immigration has made america a stronger place. these dream students will prove once again, as generations have before, that i have goin' a chance they will make america a better country. mr. president, i yield the floor. the presiding officer: the senator from washington. mrs. murray: thank you, mr. president. mr. president, i come to the floor today to urge my colleagues to support the extension of tax cuts for 98% of workers and 97% of small business owners. this should be a no-brainer. democrats do not want taxes on our middle-class families to go up, and republicans claim they want that, too, and they also say they want these tax cuts extending. so, mr. president, this should be easy. when 100 senators agree on a policy, we should be ail to pass a bill. but unfort

if someone asked you to do something, then you have to do it. if you have someone asking you to apply for the job, you should submit your resume. that doesn't mean they don't see something in you. you know how it is in indian country. sometimes people see it before you see it yourself. i listened to what she said and i took advantage of that and got a chance to work with a really great organization, working with an important policy of indian education which led me to where i am now. which led me to where i am now, which is a commissioner for ama. we do a lot of human service worker health and human services. that is a derivative of my department of my college where she is the director of indian health services. sheets oversee all of the indian health activities for hhs. together, we walked into the room and people don't always know whether to smile or cry because they're not sure if they should praise them order let them know. but they were able to make, i think, it make any change in policy that was effective on behalf of the indian country. wh

we need to do more. we need to do more to ensure the system is as reliable as possible. i do think we have to focus on best practices and how the agency is managed. it is an $800 million operation, and one of the things we started last year is be called for a management audit. the management audit looks at how the agency is being run, whether or not it is following best practices. it is bringing common sense into the operations in the city agency, and muni actually has not had a management audit in almost 15 years. that is a long time for an operation of $800 million to go without a management audit. we're now going to the second phase of the audits, which is going to come out very shortly because we do want to look the best practices. i think we also need to look at our investment in the system. part of the problem is a lack of reliability in what we have, whether it is our bosses, what happens -- buses, what happens at some of the stations, the repair areas. there is a sense we are not investing enough capital into the system, which is why, you know, we have trains on t

i have not been asked to do another one. [laughter] tavis: since we are talking, basically, about critics, people who may not like your work. there is no guarantee that everybody is going to like your work. >> there are many people who do not. tavis: there are two or three things i know that critics who do not like your stuffs a consistently. i wonder what your take might be. that you oftentimes build these designs, these pieces that do not fit into the neighborhood. they stand up. -- out. number two, often times they have features that are functionalists. -- functionless. how do you deal with that response to your work? >> there is the blogger class that has happened. people say anything. before that, people still said anything. reporters did not want take the time to go look at stuff. i am pretty well known by the people who know me, know my work, they would say i american textualist. i pay attention. i am -- i am a contextual list. i pay attention. i am respectful of my neighbors. i was also raised to not talk down to peop

you've just got to do what you got to do. tavis: i think this part of the book may sum up what "good times" was. i still watch it all the time. this is a piece from the njord times -- from "the new york times." live viewers are provided material with immediate identification. whites are given glimpses into that cannot help but weaken artificial barriers. at least one change is no longer in the wind. it is right in front of our eyes. the evidence of good times are its style and personality. it is a struggle for economic and social survival that provides a common denominator for the mass audience. the dividing line becomes less racial and more socio-economic. never underestimate the power of being silly on television. powerful words from mr. o'connor. can one shown to all those -- one show do all that? >> i think can harness. the silliness he talks about is what left us with tv sitcoms. no more of that is allowed, especially for minorities. you will see that when our show is finished there were no more black sitcoms, because th

instead, they tried to do both. they tried to say it was great in massachusetts but terrible for anyone else. when you twist yourself into a pretzel like this over and over again, eventually, the contortions are going to hurt. >> it's interesting, the romney campaign spokesman said we will no longer allow the main stream media to define the political realities in america. the campaign said it will use center right media like drudge, but eventually, they have to answer questions and this happens to be it, doesn't it? what do you think, joan? >> yeah, and richard's right. they put themselves in this box. you could be proud of romney care if you were a different mitt romney and tout it as something that worked in your state, say what was good about it, what you learned. he's in the protection program. he was not gchber of massachusetts, he did nothing, accomplished nothing, and he's run away from it. now he's stuck with it. i agree with richard, i don't think getting rid of fernstrom is likely because of the relationshi

that's what he wants to do. mr. obama cannot possibly believe that a giant welfare state leads to strength. it does not. it leads to weakness. few oppose safety nets for those who through no fault of their own have fallen on hard times. a humane society provides for those people, children, the elderly, the mentally and physically depleted. we are well beyond that in america. we have become a society that tolerates slackers and in some cases rewards irresponsible behavior. some far left individuals despise the u.s.a. believing military and economic strength is a force for evil that we are an exploitative country. some americans believe president obama falls into that category. i do not. but i do believe the is creating a huge federal apparatus that is draining individual incentive and creating an underclass of americans who are not willing to compete for prosperity. that is not what america should be about. and that's the memo. top story tonight. reaction. >> barack and hard place duo monica crowley and alan colmes. w

to go and do those stories. we went to show what what's happening there and why it was important for the world to wake up before it reached the tipping point. as far as your other question, we're not scaling back. management looked at how we do things. at one point, we had four new centers around the world. the idea was that each news center would follow the sun in news coverage. but that comes out to be incredibly expensive to duplicate some many teams around the world. so the decision was taken to see how we do these things. was there a better way to do them? so we still have people that are going out covering stories and doing so on a daily basis. we lost so many good people. the company has tried to find them jobs elsewhere. since we lost those people, stories we do in the united states has gone up. from my time in the united kingdom, was based in london for six years, there is a thing called offcom, the protesting regulator there could be had to face the same -- the broadcast regulator there. we had to face

something to do. i mean, karma. you do bad, you got to do something good to [ bleep ] it out. >> but when it comes to someone as crafty as shiverdecker, even an attempt to do good arouses suspicion. not long after he cut his hair for a cancer patient, officers decided to confiscate it. >> it's been done in the past where they can make a head and glue that hair onto a dummy head. an officer thinks he's asleep and it's actually a dummy head and this guy can escape. i don't know if it's escape paraphernalia, but it could be. we're going to retrieve it now. >> hey, i need to get that hair from you. whatever documentation you have to send it out, give me the documentation with it. just put it in the envelope and send it out. >> i will let the case worker do it. >> they want to make me look like the monster. i have been here over 2 1/2 years. i didn't do nothing. i don't disrespect nobody, don't cause no problems or nothing. >> we met a rookie officer who was about to find out if that's true. >> the inmate we're talking ab

is very expensive to do that. the demand letter is a requirment for the state -- is a requirement for the state laws to be brought. for civil rights cases, you are expected to know the law and be in compliance. they do not make a demand under federal law saying they should ask you for damages. and the damages could be substantial. the damages are based on the number of barriers encountered by the person when they're going to inspect the premises. these people will come and visit your business barack, three, or four times. they will sit at the counter if you have a counter. they will sit at a table. that are well aware of what the legal requirements are of the height of the table and the length of the legs, whether the bathroom is compliance, whether there is appropriate sign it. the first barrier is access to the premises itself. adding is? . -- adding steps. having a ramp that is too steep is an access issue. there are ways to deal with those. having a power door or something of that nature. of power door -- you h
