we have even fewer ownership units on line. we have 339 units in the pipeline. it will be a challenge as you can see. because there are not this kind of resources available for ownership production. it is a pie chart where you can see where this existing units, we had 2800 affordable ownership units. 58% are targeted at 120 ami and below add another 38% for below. that is not a large percentage. why do we build more? we -- the leverage that is possible, there are two projects. you can see for mission walk, it requires 55% of the dollars to come from the city where as for mosaic it requires 35%. there is a difference of leverage that makes it more difficult to build. we have offered other kinds of financial incentives to families besides actual production. we do have downpayment assistance programs, programs targeting police in the community, teacher nexturf programs. that has reached almost 3000 middle and come families and they go below the 90-100% that bmr gives. they go to 120%. with our assistance program, the average ami is 82%. an income of 65,000 the year

agaibegin some people say it's d for the united states but i don't think it's bad for the united states. i don't see any reason why the rising influence of brazil or turkey or india is in any way temporary to american interests. >> charlie: is the rise of the arab spring in the arab world good for the united states? >> i think on the balance -- >> charlie: and for the world and the people of the arab world. >> this is a classic it's too soon to answer this question. i don't know what the arab spring will lead to. what's interesting is in the best of all words let's say egypt really is a democracy we're going to have this very mixed picture. there are ways in which it's going to be set backs for the united states strategically. popularly governed egypt is not going to be as close an ally and is war on terror, on other issues as, you know, as the stalwart are lubaric was. my view nevertheless because our transcending interest is in a certain kind of world order we benefit nevertheless even if we pay a price in some short term interest. one example like that i think of is the philippines i

as this slide shows where the units were built. 43% of the new units were built in east soma.as for affordable housing, just under a quarter of the units constructed in the eastern neighborhoods are affordable. this is about the same as the proportion citywide. about 60% of these units were affordable through public assistance. specifically this would be the rebuilding of thei] valencia gud skns new construction in the mission. the remainder are inclusionary units. this slide shows where the affordable units were built. you will see that the mission shows most of the affordable housing. this is again because of the 260 units in the valencia gardens, as well as the 151 units -- there are also 1 0 believe market rate units that were built as offsite compliance for infinity and they were built in the showplace square area and so you'll see the inclusionary units are far higher in the showplace square area. there are over 3,300 net new units in the pipeline for the eastern neighborhoods. however, this residential development pipeline for the bx>uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu the res

citizens united isn't just dangerous because the corporations will do under citizens united. it is dangerous because of what they will threaten to do. the most dangerous thing under citizens united is the lobbyist going into the congress and i want to recognize congressman tom allen who did a wonderful job representing. [applause] they will come and visit, or they will come and visit me and they will say step into my office come here i would like to show you something. look at this ad and it blows me to bits. and they say we are going to put three or $4 million behind that had come in and we are going to do it through a company that we will make up a name no one will be able to trace it to us and you will have a problem on your hands unless you vote right. you vote with us on this and nobody sees that. you vote against us and its $4 million behind that ad starting next august or whatever the date is. that meeting nobody ever sees. there is no accountability but when you open the floodgates you open them also to the threat. so we have to be talking about how long the factual f

within our unit.he also comes from a very well- known police family, and we are very glad that the chief assigned her to svu. we have been planning and as the chief is trying to plan, his strategies for hiring in the future -- i have to plan for any type of personnel deficiencies. there are a high number of individuals and drop -- in the drop program. we can't turn victims away because we lost specialized investigators. we have to pick up the slack and make sure that those left behind are familiar with this kind of investigation. we are really doing a huge brain dump of the senior people and i am merely exposing them to a high number of the additional younger investigators and so we don't lose some of that institutional knowledge. this slide depitcts the 18 organizations and partners that we presently work with, sometimes on a daily basis. they are in alphabetical order, that is the only order in which they are in. they are not shown here in any type of additional priority. they are very active with u

the united states could monitor these these missiles many in the united states just like the views of . a maintains that the european missile defense system is ineffective the scientist estimates that it has protected the united states from a rainy and missiles instead it creates problems for russia if russia believes is the fence is not needed. but it doesn't pose a theoretical threat to russia. my guess is that the russians. if you want to spend your national treasure this will help you so it solves the political problem and it provides a much more capable defense than with the united states currently building it's a. much cheaper. the professor believes that the purpose of nato is radar with europe is to track the movements of russian strategic weapons and to monitor russia's new military technology. the real target could be russia but certainly it makes the people of europe less safe it draws them in in fact as a geo strategic pawn by great powers as they maneuver and use the missile defense shield not as a way to defend your not as a way to defend anybody in fact but to provide a

or united states playing on this issue. for me it's so you say that it's really interesting because of the same situation i was doing our duty stations with the united states when we deliver a clean you'll start treaty also with russia and russia for four or four decades has been living without an immediate threat to security but there are of course some potential threats well what about putin doesn't mention any specific potential threats to russian security doesn't mention enemy well he says something about nato and the united states where it's more of like well let's be cautious yes are there any potential threats to the russian security and security of the country according to the russian military doctrine has to go through a lot seen what you mention at least use of it i just would like to mention one it seems to me it will be enough of the. it seems to me that the most important threat it's the nexus between terrorism and weapons of mass destruction related materials it's a very dangerous material school would be in t

this would have to be launched from fixed locations where the united states and russia join the united states could monitor these these missiles many in the united states dislike the views of field. he maintains that the european missile defense system is ineffective the scientist estimates that it has no take to be united states from a rainy and missiles instead it creates problems for russia if russia believes the fence is not needed but it doesn't pose if you're radical for russia. my guess is that the russian government. if you want to spend your national treasure this will help you. solve the political problem it provides much more capable defense with the united states currently building and incidentally will so much cheap. the professor believes that the purpose of nato in europe is to track the movements of russian strategic weapons and to monitor russia's new military technologies. the real target could be russia but certainly it makes the people of europe less safe it draws them in in fact as a geo strategic pawn by great powers as they maneuver and use the missile defense sh

despite great pressure to conform to the united states and celebrate the united states as the best in the world, the nation does not lack for critics. the last two decades saw numerous works criticizing domestic policy, foreign policy, in particular, the financial policy, the education, corporate influence over american life, military, and so on. this is estute, and i learned much, but two things lack in my opinion and have a hard time making it into the public eye because americans are not trained to think in a holistic fashion and this analysis i have in mind is too close to the bone. it's very difficult for americans to hear it, hence somebody would say, "i didn't know it failed." you know? the first thing we lack is an integration of the various factors that have done the country in. these studies tend to be institution specific as though it existed in a vacuum and could be understood apart from other institutions. the second thing lacking is the relationship to the culture at large, the values and behaviors that americans manifest on a daily basis. as a result, these critiques ar

a lot of negative peers on the unit i'm on now.ow if i come here i have an opportunity to go home. >> we get up at 4:50 in the morning, will that be a problem. >> no, sir. >> it's a very structured environment. go to bed at the same time. there's no horseplay, absolutely no horseplay. is that going to be a problem? >> no, sir. >> 2100 is lights out, taps. there is no talking. if you were to be caught talking, the whole room gets up and does pt. >> would you have any problems with that? >> no, sir. >> how are you going to be able to handle taking direction and orders from other guys in your position? >> well, sir, i would think to myself if i listen to them then maybe one day i'll be able to get up there and be able to be the one. >> yeah, is great answer. >> even though this offender has all of the right answers, the decision to accept him into the unit is complicated. >> these juveniles come from horrible backgrounds. i tend not judge them but we want to ask yourselves do we think that they'll learn in this unit. >> the military t

states and there's a scene the united states may have to defend there we're. going to question that's who the purist and those are sort of five of them but you know the attitudes that we see in terms of this are really interesting to for example right we had u.s. officials coming out last week saying that israel was in fact funding the enrique. a in order to carry out or at least play some kind of a role in the assassinations the murders of nuclear scientists in iran you have some people arguing that well it's ok if israel's doing it because it's for a good cause and i thought was kind of interesting that kevin drum decided to step in here and take a look at both sides and he basically made the following point saying that it's still terrorism when israel does it so says still is it terrorism yes do both sides use it yes is this in many cases the future of warfare probably yes is there a better alternative that's a good question so you know what's your take on that is everyone to start assuming that well that's that's the future of warfare that's the way that i

supreme court's citizens united decision. well first it's a little overstatement to say they rejected it outright i mean the they meet made some very clear distinctions between what was at stake in the montana supremes court case and what was decided in citizens united in a couple of the key distinctions were in montana the law the corrupt practices act the law under under challenge actually protected nonpartisan and judicial election something that wasn't addressed at all in the citizens united ruling also in citizens united one of the arguments by the majority the five person majority on the supreme court was that there was not a real documented record of the corruption that was being alleged as a threat in montana the state attorney general presented an extensive record of. corporate corruption throughout our history right down to the buying of u.s. senate seats so there are a couple of key distinctions but i think part of the motivation of the montana justices also is the fact that this was a citizen vote back in one thou

-- sro units. the thing about that -- a policy is it would not cost the city and the best thing because it could be done with market refinancing and a set aside for the low-income units. it could happen right away and without any city or state funds. thank you. supervisor wiener: i will note -- i have been working on student housing legislation that is coming through the planning commission and we will be at the land use committee in a few weeks. a lot of us agree on that in terms of reducing that. the competition. i would think you for bringing out affordability by design. some of our zoning changes sometimes discourage small units and that can be a problem. in terms of car-free, a parking spot and $50,000 to the cost of a unit. thank you for raising the issue. >> i might add i build 500 units in berkeley and created 90 low- income units and became a larger landlord of low-income residents than the city of berkeley housing authority. at no cost to the city. it is possible. thank you. supervisor ma

how do you see the united states today in the world? after the economic collapse, after the arab spring, after the whole range after the rise of china and the east? >> well, the impression is that the strength and power of the united states is waning. it is not as strong as before. cheerily, the economy crisis also, deepened the wound in the united states. right now the united states is very much becoming isolated and less involved in the. >> rose: isolated? >> yes. i mean look -- they are not involved, for example, from the point of view of the palestinian israeli crisis .. there is no involvement at all. they are not involved at all. we see for example now the pulling out from iraq, although it was good politically for locally but the position here, the civil war over there, if there is a fight between sunnis and shiites. after spending $2 trillion. >> rose: are you suggesting they shouldn't have pulled out? >> no, i am saying they should have some troops stay over there. >> rose: they were prepared and asked by the government of iraq

there is 212,000 rental units. the number of the restricted affordable rental units the city has, that is 18,000. that is 80% of the total. of those, 76% of our deed- restricted rentals. 18,000 is the population. 76% target folks at the very low income. another 16 target 50-60% and a small number, 7% serve the 60- 80% ami. within this, what is part of this deed restricted units include those units we produce through moe or sfra. ordoto give you how much we produce, we're talking about production. we have averaged 800 units in terms of what moe and sfra have produced. as you know the agency money is going away and that will go down to 400 units. on the bmr side, we have averaged 33 rental units per year. this average 33 a year. in the pipeline, for bmr rentals, we probably have 725 units set to go within the next five to 10 years. something for people to think about is historically on the below market rate program, it is 72% or so have been ownership and maybe 20% have been rentals. that ratio is flipped. for the ne

is supple and going along with the united states then the united states is fine to have a u.n. sanction for its actions but when the u.n. and the people of the world or the countries of the world resist then the united states says the u.n. is unwilling to do its job and then uses other instruments like nato or other military arrangements they did that in the case of yugoslavia they did that in the case of the iraq war whenever the u.n. doesn't go along the u.s. then says well to heck with you one will use some other instrument for the exercise of american power last year the u.n. security council authorized me to protect civilians in libya but the mission resulted in regime change the libyan authorization of force was very specific and it didn't authorize regime change in the countries that partook in their operation clue you know actually it's for exceeded the u.n. mandate and their operation i think that's symbolic of the fact that these libya that these u.n. mandates really are meaningful in terms of international law and that's just the reality of it nato countries have flo

make a nuclear weapon the united states only a few weeks some indications are only the united states a week actually making a bomb is the easy part hard part is getting the syria with which to make the bar and iran has spent billions of dollars and twenty years now getting the material to actually make a bomb so we don't want to wait until that last week well i don't think there's anything here but if we have the director of national intelligence james james clapper says in front of congress if there is no evidence that iran is building a nuclear weapon that's the head of national intelligence are few weeks to build a nuclear it takes a few weeks to build a nuclear weapon they don't have to make that decision until the last minute they have already spent billions of dollars building huge facilities with which to make the materials that will let them make that decision when they want to make it they haven't done it yet but what they have done is violated their safeguard agreements with the i.a.e.a. ok get out do you want to jump in there if i if i may. i believe there is no way it was

they were mad at the united states. the united states had stabbed them in the back in june, they had declared war on them when they were in mortal danger from napoleon. so they were mad. that's where the english stood at that time. where did the americans stand? well, the americans had done terrible on the ground. their whole invasion of canada had failed. and the privateers did go out, but it takes a long time to get that all going. the privateers were going quite well, but it would take a very long time before that really came into play. what about the american navy? well, my word, the american navy was doing just great. the first defeat of the american army in canada was at detroit in august of -- august 15 of 1812. madison could not believe it. he was horrifyied. here it was an election year, he had told everybody he was going to invade canada and do all this stuff, and here he is, he loses. and this is going to kill him in the election. four days later, four days later the uss constitution, old ironsides, have you

a liability of the united states government but it's not a liability that the united states government can never meet because the u.s. government is the monopoly issuer of the dollar our debts are denominated in dollars and so therefore it's not a dead where we have borrowed another currency or it's tied to some fixed rate of exchange or there's a gold backing or something like that and the proof is in the putting lauren i mean we've been hearing so much about the debt in the united states and remember it's and p. downgraded the credit rating of the united states and guess what interest rates have been going down down down down down and we were warned that oh gosh if this ever happened we're going to see a spike in interest rates and foreigners are going to sell their bonds and foreigners are selling their bonds the chinese have been selling a lot of their u.s. securities interest rates are going down and that simply because the rate is set by the fed i mean that's the way it works is mike isn't that an unsustainable model ok we're talking about rates being loud and they're low because

so we look at the structure of the chinese economy what is china export united states what does the united states export to china look at the real numbers the major exports from united states to china last year was cornered so we beans scrap steel and scrap plastic looks more like a eighteenth century economy what we see in united states the other hand what you see is china exporting their number one export united states is now electronic equipment. manufacturers many factors look tronics so china story twenty years ago on the low wage low value added in budget sorry new order go to many american companies are going to get global competitors coming out of china in future yeah you mentioned scrap metal scrap paper yet if you look at the list of exports from top twenty states that export to china from the united states number two or number three on the list is always garbage america's excellent exporting its garbage to china like scrap paper for example which of course china recycles into cardboard cardboard boxes and resells back to united states and has made many many billions of dollars f

>> my unit is fine. it is not the greatest unit. if a fixture bathroom, i would probably spend my money and fix my bathroom. i have a place i go to on the weekends. i like the building. i just think that -- you are the only people who cannot deny or force him to give her a bathroom and live like a human being. i

alexander was in a secret unit manning missiles when he's. always makes a point of spending time with his wife and children. he's well aware of the standoff between nato and russia. it makes him apprehensive about what kind of future awaits his son. was the most approving of course my wife and i often talk about the future. we would like to see a bright future without crises. and. we want everybody to live in peace and we want everything to be just fine. the i.c.b.m.'s are accompanied by combat escort the world today we have eyes covered ground very difficult conditions for a thrust forward to kill the i do hope everything will pass off without any incidents. trucks carrying nuclear warheads lined up in a quiet glade the snowy forest provides good kemah flash for them together these mobile missile launches a cold and had to go to the russian army lingo they need to be ready for action at any moment. right dress. attention. come on major section chief says all reporting unit is ready to go. fully in. the aggregate for. four haste. the intercon
