between underfunding of security perhaps also underfunding of those socialization education efforts i mentioned and the rise of right wing violence so the key question is will politicians not only speak out but will they also follow up with actions in the sense of these believes they have a new problem tonight that arrest warrant that has been leaked online do we know who's behind their no we don't but what we do know is that this arrest warrant for one of the two alleged perpetrators of the stabbing on saturday night that was the trigger for all of this violence and that the perpetrator is a migrant that this arrest warrant was leaked to right wing sites in other words we have the suspicion that someone within the security services with access to that warrant may have had a channel to such sites and this would not be the first time that we've seen in this part of eastern germany connections between the authorities who are there to guarantee constitutional rights and the right wing and that of course is a matter of the absolute highest concern and hopefully will be followed up in shor

we have been talking about underfunded tensions and the economy is doing well and they should be addingo the rainy day funds, but they might not be doing so to as much as they need . what do you think in terms of a credit analysis perspective, if the economy turns, what would be in trouble from that? >> if you take a look at states rainy day funds, they are up on hand68 of cash across all 50 states compared to pre-recessionary levels. the lowest rated state, illinois, connecticut, in particular, have lower days of cash than 2007 levels, and the states have taken underfunded pension liability and only add about 35%. doing the recessionary downturn, the pension assets will experience lower return, so the liabilities will increase privies states in particular -- increase for the states in particular. tough way forg a them to get out of the hole. taylor: we did have a supreme court ruling that came in that gives states the little more bargaining power when it comes to the public sector, so it states of that help? >> the supreme court ruled that nonunion government employees did not have to

see the issue i see and i know california has had some good years, but you say they're underfunded inie snacenar are 250 billion. maybe as large as a trillion nobody wants to touch the entitlements, medicaid, medicare, social security, but that along with underfunded public pensions, these are going to come home to roost. are the courts going to have to get involved in this, governor >> i assume at some point, they will this whole idea of nationalizing the problem has been floated before during the early part of the recession. the piece i wrote made the point that you know, we've got essentially the euro zone situation for greece, think maybe connecticut for somebody too big to fail like italy think illinois certainly california but we have one thing the euro zone doesn't that's the u.s. senate which protects the interest of smaller and moderate sized states, the more solvent states, genls being plunders by the birg ones that have more population >> i got you governor, we're out of time, but this story isn't going to end anytime soon and i would like to have you back as different issu

of security, perhaps also underfunding of those socialization and education efforts i mentioned, andhe rise of right-wing violencnce. so the key question is, will politicians not only speak out, but will they also follow up with actions? brent: melinda, saxony's police have a new problem tonight -- that arrest warrant that has been leaked online. do we know who is behind that? melinda: no, we don't. but what we do know is that this arrest warrant for one of the two alleged perpetrators for the stabbing on saturday night that was the trigger of all this violence, and that perpetrator is a migrant. that this arrest warrant was leaked to right-wing sites. in other words, we have the suspicion that someone within the security services with access to that warrant may have had a channel to such sites. this would not be the first time that we have seen in this part of eastern germany connections between the authorities who are there to guarantee constitutional rights, and the right wing. and that of course is a matter of the absolute highest concern, and hopefully will be followed up in sho

this is not a short term issue of underestimating just one particular rally we are seeing chronic underfunding of security services in many parts of germany and many series cities and that absolutely must be remedied if citizens and not only right wing citizens are saying they don't feel safe on city streets that is something that politicians and police officials need to be taking very seriously and there's one other issue i think also that bears mention we have seen some indications that members of the police force in the region of saxony do occasionally seem to sympathize with far right parties and one indication of that just this week the arrest warrant for one of the two alleged perpetrators of the knifing attack on saturday evening who allegedly is of migration background that arrest warrant was leaked by the police to the press now that is absolutely against the rule of law and that clearly shows there's some kind of channel there that is very very questionable indeed the chief political correspondent melinda crying the thank you . tuesday dog it was only croatian island rob competed alo

didn't mean like you have to go under for a job because this is not getting into anything for you underfunding the you know some of the family you will have to i know it as you would you have to look for joe in order to help us yeah so what. would you discuss the sea is an alaskan d.j. yeah because you also trying to create a job what you do is for the use and i'm so proud make i do business yes. today most often karama dream is finally coming true on a ferry heading across the mouth of the river gumbi to the country's northern shore . with them off fifteen volunteers from the association all former migrants like themselves after months of planning and trying to get financial backing for the trip and mood is upbeat i have a yeah yeah i would love to say you know there is a look at the local talent to hold day in the area to hold the language of this is a moving city eggs all the way most indians and. life gets passed by saying ones they are lucky to. live. yeah i mean is this you know what i'm not saying is there. is something. i just love it when it comes to. food for five days that convoy wi

and then the other issues of course are issues of food education health these things are woefully underfunded i mean if you look at what the u.n. agencies have received in terms of their appeal you know your trolley talking maybe one third of the appeal has been funded by the international community so they're just scraping by right now you know and as this you know becomes less of a priority of this drags on the year two or year three unfortunately you would expect that the international community will move their attention somewhere else and there will be less support so you know this is a very very difficult situation for those refugees no and i think ultimately burma sort of playing for time here there is you know they're realizing that you know if they just make it difficult for these people to come back if they continue to have the troops on the ground of if they make an example of some of these people like the group that we interviewed that that snuck back in that you know the word will get through the. camp said the return is too dangerous and though to stay in bangladesh which is ulti

the underfunding of pension plans in pennsylvania they are rising astronomically, and it is going to get worse because we are really behind and making sure that the pension plans or pay for -- pension plans are paid for. and i don't know what is going to happen to a lot of these that a justn, trying to keep the roof over their heads. look at the future and sit there and wonder if i can afford my little, $170,000 home someday, because of the taxes. but remember, i did well. bplan for having a good part and part d so i wouldn't have a lot of health care issues in the future. i am paying more than i have to write now. to gym in erie, pennsylvania. caller: i wanted to ask the professor a couple of questions. but in erie, pennsylvania, the fromof can -- the lady kansas was speaking about property taxes and my wife and i are thinking about selling our house because property taxes in pennsylvania, i mean, everywhere you look they just go up and out up and up. and people who rent, they don't have to think about property taxes, going into bankruptcy. so we are thinking about selling the house

the first were undercooked and underfunded.here were a few hundred afghans out of the afghan army. after a lot of false starts the afghan security forces, the army in particular but also the intelligence services are becoming more and more ethnic. they continue -- the most trusted and admired institutions in the afghan government despite occasional problems. they have faced a huge threat and in my view they are responding to that more and more effectively. through that the afghan state has the potential to get stronger. in some ways the afghan writ large are in many ways the same group of people. there are no new leaders that have come up. many of these people were warlords in the 1990s and defeated by the taliban. they have wealth and power and they only use that wealth and power in order to maintain wealth and power. the afghan people have been taken for a ride by a lot of people who are in charge of various parts of the afghan society. where we will all end up as a huge question. i hope you can tell i'm optimistic about the

musicprograms, theater, -- those programs which are vastly underfunded -- those programs have been shown to lower tension in the schools and have many positive gains in terms of interpersonal relationships. i would really have a look at what i call softening school security. thank you. good. that is a really we did hear often from people who are experts in this field that you do need to create a sense of community within your school. the i was out at littleton, director security out there told me a story about a student -- a young student, elementary school aged, who brought a knife to school. it turned out, the student was scared because there were bullies in his school. child, they got him to a school psychologist. in aalso enrolled him self-defense class at the school where he could not only learn skills that would help him feel safer, but he would also get involved with other students who would make him feel more a part of the community and that was one of the solutions that they did say to me. that is definitely a part of this. our story concentrates mostly on the infrastructure of

colleges say they are underfunded and there needs to be a new approach.elevant and respond to their needs as they get older and become adults and envisage the left beyond education. the government says it committed an extra 50 million pounds last year and four million pounds last year and four million into development for training teachers in both subjects. education is supposed to open doors but to thousands of students it seems some remain closed. astronomers says they have identified some of the oldest galaxies in the universe — and they are right on our cosmic doorstep. scientists at the universities of durham and harvard analysed different galaxies and found that one group of stars and planets, near the milky way, appeared to be different from the others. using computer simulations like this, they believe it was one of the first galaxies formed after the big bang, around 13 billion years ago. the research is published in the astrophysicaljournal. now, it's notjust human hay fever sufferers who've struggled with pollen this summer — two polar bears at

systems up and down the country, widespread confusion, the public do not know how to use it, it is underfundedhe solution is supply chain partnership and responsibility. let's all work together to find a common solution that works for everybody. once we do that, the solution is pretty easy. in the end, the problems you are talking about in terms of confusion, i'm sure a lot of householders would agree with that, if they move from one part of the country to another, they find a completely different recycling setup with some councils saying we can recycle this, we cannot recycle bat we cannot recycle that and with others it is the reverse. but again they might say that is down to the manufacturers. if we had fewer, simpler packaging, then everybody could have the same model of recycling. absolutely, that is what i was alluding to. it is what we all need to work on. that is the model so that if we have standardised packaging, and to be fair i think there is a lot of work going on now. i met with tesco earlier in the week and they have some fantastic plans to rationalise the number of polymers tha

sanctioning those who abuse red notices might be a solution but interpol is permanently underfunded. it's the second largest international organization after the united nations but its budget nowhere near matches its reputation. the combined statutory contributions of all one hundred ninety two member countries come to hardly more than fifty million euros by comparison the f.b.i.'s budget is some seven billion euros sixty times more. so right now in opposing a budget deficit we've reduced our operating budget we've reduced our travel budget and we've frozen new highs essentially since i've joined we've had three people. here construct who was elected interpol's secretary-general in late twenty fourteen was supposed to enforce this new austerity regime. a daunting task even more so because his predecessor ronald noble had sought to make interpol on the present and indispensable with a budget to match. gaining your trust the trust of my staff and acting in the best interest of the organization. i've been my number one priority as your secretary general. noble spent fourteen years at th

kids in those schools because these schools were so gleefully --erfunded -- so gleefully lethally underfunded. i think they need to have every tool in their toolkit. marcia: even if it paralyzes the city? workers do not one to strike. they only strike when they see no other recourse, and if you strike, if you lost in the public opinion, you have lost. you can only successfully strike when the public is sympathetic. marcia: governor cuomo? governor cuomo: organized labor is under attack. that is why i think ms. nixon was wrong to attack those and blamed him for the construction issues. as far as her idea on the taylor law, i think it is a terrible idea. if you allow the public sector unions to strike, teachers could go on strike, there it be no school, children would not be educated, and everybody started by saying "education is so important," right? sanitation has gone on strike, which is even a health concern for the city. the subway which we talked about which is so important, that could go on strike, and that that could cripple the city. even the public unions that you suggest should have

we see it in underfunding and the funding of public health. so this is all a growing and alarming trend of the denial, which is not new. >> host: i know you face the many frustrations as you outlined in the book. what may be the angriest? there's probably a long list. brother a couple things that you thought this is absolutely crazy? >> you know, after the crisis was revealed away were in recovery mode, we were starting to get more and more reports of water lead levels. people were getting tested and thousands of parts per billion and there is no safe lead level at all. my saddest day came when the lead level of a home adjacent to the hospital, a home for foster children in troubled children right next to the hospital and their lead and water level came back at 5000 parts per billion. 15 parts per billion. it should be zero. this home had over 5000 parts per billion. these are the kids who already had every adversity in life. they were victims of child abuse or neglect or traumatized. they had no family. these kids already suffered every singl

is this a case of where they were underfunded? or they just didn't bother to spend the money? or they, what happened here? >> with real id, is taking twice as long as they thought the process all the paperwork. i don't think they asked for enough positions in the budget. in the budget, we give them the positions they asked for. again, dmv brings in fees, so they are a self supporting agency. there not an agency that is reliant on our general fund. all the fees that they charge you and me when we pay for drivers licenses or ids, that funds the staffing of the agency. there's no reason to have these long lines. >> so it's just bureaucratic budgeting? were they don't go to the max and get things done? >> they estimated the number of people coming in correctly, they just didn't know how much time it would take. until system goes online and you are typing in the data, you don't really know. >> that sounds typical. will get better? we only have a w seconds. >> absolutely. it has to get better. we will implement technology, start moving people out of the front and into the office, we

colleges say they're underfunded and there needs to be a new approach.ications relevant and responsive to their needs as they get older, as they become adults and as they start to envisage their life beyond education. the government said it committed an extra £50 million to improve the maths teaching last year, and £4.5 million a year to professional development for teachers in both subjects. of course, education is supposed to open doors. but for thousands of students, it seems some remain closed. john maguire, bbc news, east london. more than 160 people have died as a result of the worst monsoon rains in the indian state of kerela for a—hundred years. many of the dead were crushed in landslides. widespread flooding has forced one—hundred—and—fifty—thousand people out of their homes. thousands of people are still believed to be marooned by the floodwaters and more heavy rain is expected. yogita limaye reports. pushed out of their homes by the flood, people are walking miles to safety. beyond this surging water, there are tens of thousands who are stuck,

and also, the underfunding, the fragmentation of the nhs, which accelerated in 2012. in a mag and ——ad on you? when i went to hospital at the horton general i was diagnosed with sepsis but because the maternity unit had been downgraded it couldn't receive the treatment i needed, so i had to be transferred in an ambulance with a life—threatening condition to a different county, different hospital, different nhs trust, basically a different part of the country, to receive the treatment i needed to save my life, with a six old baby in tow, and it just had a massive impact on us and it was very scary, that, to me, and if we had been able to go to our local unit like we could before it was downgraded that would have made a huge difference. peggy, how do you react to these figures from this freedom of information request to ten by labour today?” freedom of information request to ten by labour today? i think those figures are the tip of the iceberg. i know from experience over the last few years, that even when the units are not closed the admissions there is a lot of work to stop closure b

again my question is because it does seem that obesity is underfunded relative to society. 190million societal costs and in contrast with other diseases with far more nih funding to get is nice to have that conversation over a two or years to appreciate that perspective on obesity that enormous public health challenge and those that may not know implicated in cancer, heart disease that is a match that starts the fire to other diseases. i'm sorry to interrupt you make your point is taken you have seen the way we play this out to put forward a couple of years ago to articulate how we set priorities with a scientific opportunity. to agree it is multi factor or that there are many aspects that relate to things that nih can't control in terms of bias or lifestyle. we are studying those intense but you do something about this epidemic which is very recent and on the edge of happening. >> but if i may interrupt with no disrespect that we are really not on that cost. and without mentioning your name. and that was repeated several times. if i spoke to obesity researchers then talk about micro
