utilize chemical weapons on its people crosses a line that will change my calculus and how the united states approaches these issues. >> the two-year civil war has killed more than 70,000 people and displaced hundreds of thousands more. six months after superstorm sandy devastated the northeast, causing billions of dollars in damage, many new jersey and new york communities are still working to repair and move forward. the federal emergency management agency has paid out billions of dollars in assistance. thousands of homeowners still remain displaced as they await insurance payments and updates on new federal flood-zone maps. politicians, members of the media, and hollywood celebrities gathering for the annual white house correspondents' association dinner in washington, despite coming at a somber time -- just two weeks after the boston marathon bombings and a deadly plant explosion in texas. the dinner giving the president and his political rivals a chance to poke fun at themselves. >> some things are beyond my control -- for example, this whole controversy about jay-z going to cuba. it's unbelievabl

santa clara also has vertical misdemeanor and felony prosecution approach. in the unit that we have, it handles about 270 cases a month. that is about a 100% increase in the last two years. we have seen a dramatic increase in the number of cases that we are handling as an office without increasing our staff. we are also seeing an increase in the number of cases not resolving through plea bargain, that number is 92%. we are seeing dramatic increase in our work in the area of domestic violence, that 92% is just in the last year, calendar year 2011-12. santa clara as i mentioned that has a vertical misdemeanor and felony unit has hermetically more staff, both support staff and attorneys. they have over 306 two percent more support staff and 60 percent more attorneys. we have not had dedicated victim advocates, parlegals, support staff. the attorneys carry the burden of building the relationship with the woman. they are seeing an increase in caseload and is becoming exceptionally difficult to maintain that meaningful relationship. we have seen a change in the public offende

the youth's youth are being hurt by this state unemployment among young people in the united states today is approaching thirty percent because of minimum wage flows and because of all the other labor regulations who do they protect if we raise the minimum wage while we protected the union employees who have their salaries linked to that c.s. that the upper middle class gets even gets even better without even doing anything but what you really hurting are the conduct of young people were never going to get a job because minimum wage prices them out of the economy and that's a tragedy and this yeah i mean labor unions have power and they have a lot beat but you don't give them a lot of benefits you know who don't have power they don't necessarily which they don't necessarily deserve but whose expense at the expense of young people and at the expense of poor people. that was sam sachs political commentator and you ron brooks the executive director of the iran institute i've next i'll be hosting a debate between prime interest producer bob english and mark levine on the inside scoop on the marketplace fair

united on. an escalation in their approach divided on how that may be carried out the figure pretext that may be employed but i think it's quite likely that they are going ahead with this and of course the united states as well that you know they officially have criticized some this force an islamic fundamentalist and syria have in fact been arming them through their allies through. qatar this is under conditions in which you have these revelations from the united nations that the central pretext upon which they're basing this fiscal ation was for the use of chemical weapons by the syrian government and then really exploded. meanwhile tension is escalating on syria's western border after israeli warplanes bombed targets inside the war torn state just last week a damascus though has reportedly given the go ahead for palestinian groups to carry out and see israeli operations in the golan heights a missile batteries are also said to have been deployed in the region ready for imminent retaliate in case of a new israeli strike a media report suggests that special syrian lebanese units have been creat

sort of like the belts and suspenders approach there. any new units that are installed, of course, will be installed the same with the spring isolators and theneo proem washers and any mechanical work being done will be done by to code. here is a conceptual rendering of what we actually see the office space looking like. again, we have this up to date. charles salter the acoustic engineers and they can elaborate a little more on the vibration isolators and the sound and their acoustic analysis. >>> good evening, my name is ben piper. this is my colleague ben decker. we are acoustic consultants with charles salter. at the request of the appellant we were hired by the property ownership group to conduct an analysis of noise transmission from the proposed office space into the residences above. we provided an analysis and provided our findings to the homeowners association. at that time based on their feedback, we increased our scope of work to include acoustickal testing in the residences themselves. we provided that testing and there was also our initi

there are over 700 communities in the united states with combined sewer systems. the other approach was to separate wastewater from stormwater, using two pipe networks. this separate system simply carries the stormwater away from the city. but even separate systems pollute the watershed. in developed areas, concrete and other impervious services prevent water from naturally soaking into the land. as the rainwater moves over the roads and concrete expanse, it captures trash and invisible chemicals, sending them straight to the nearest waterway -- untreated. when engineers first designed america's water infrastructure -- the drinking water, wastewater, and stormwater systems -- they were some of the most advanced in the world. but the infrastructure is growing old. and population growth and development, particularly in urban areas, have made it difficult for original system designs to meet modern health standards and reliably satisfy demand. man: our water and wastewater systems really are engineering marvels. because it's buried, it's invisible to us, and we tend to take it for grant

we're talking about changing the way the united states approaches these very critical allies and, inome case, adversaries. and we need to do it differently. diplomacy's a big piece of it. you don't really want to do it with the military alone. the military alone is insufficient to address this problem. they're a big piece of it, but if we don't have the diplomats aligned, it's going to be a problem. in getting, you know, the think tank community and the citizens all play a role in getting that change to occur. we have to speak, we have to make the case, and all of you as individuals have to do the same thing to your legislators. that's the only way stuff gets changed. you know, washington has always been a fairly insular town, and it's probably more so today despite all of the communications means we have at our december posal. they're just -- disposal. they're just as inclined to ignore everybody else running around the country as they ever were unless they start making some noise. so we all need to do that. the bombers, absolutely a deterrent. you know, nobody ever really wants to

united states. pursue direct action approach that involves things like seven tosh can vandalism. it's essentially a leaderless movement. rather than having a formal the guidelines, they produce these guidelines that desert activists to cause economic damage to those that they believe spoil the environment. now, today ecotourism has not been very little, but it has been quite costly the radical animal liberation movement. in 1976 the animal liberation front was founded. founded in the mainland. made its way to the united states. and the organization's stated goal is to stop animal suffering through direct action which includes rescuing animals from laboratories and inflicting damage on those facilities they use animals. there is no formal. rather, activists are bound together by an ideology. finally, it is worth mentioning that the unabomber, ted kosinski the land later years he espoused an antisense technology and the elegy. in the final years of his campaign he reached out to the environmentalist movement, and he really exemplified the lone wolf terrorist. from 1978 to 1995 he c

and really and truly it's not really a change in attitude it's just a different approach and attitude because the united states and europe have always really relied on the global south for their economic base so it just is how we talk about immigrants and how immigrants and their cheap labor really contributes to the american economy is the same way when we broaden that out to an international perspective and right now obama he set a little bit of a pivot so i think a lot of people remember in his first campaign where he talked about changing nafta in order to put jobs back in the rust belt here in the united states now and my guess is a lot of that is a lot of corporate interests that are funding his campaign they're really pushing him on this free trade policy and they're pushing him and now spinning it to say that americans can get jobs as a result of that particularly we're looking at natural gas so the united states is experiencing a natural gas boom and an oil boom and they're looking at these countries which are buying more american products my aunt was actually in town this weekend from panama a

units. to help you understand the situation, i have to take you on a multistep approach. when they purchased their home 16 years ago in 1997 inspected the property. there is two stories above the basement. each of the units is well size and fourth unit was added by the previous owner and to the basis of the building. due to a water intrusion, they had to completely rebuild the bottom of the basement property and sought a building permit and they found their building was not a three unit building with a unit in the base many but the planning department maintained the unit count was a two unit building with a unit in the base many. if you go back over a hundred years, in the 1900s when this was a farm house. it was originally a large property with multiple square feet on a big piece of land and changed hands over the years but it was first a single family home and later changed into a three family dwelling according to city records. in 1987 the owner of the property, applied to allow the large piece of property be subdivided into three parts of land. it was given a new legal

to take this up to a higher level and make it the policy of the united states, which puts in statute that the multi-stakeholder approach is the best. it is what has given us this great mechanism of free speech. there were some concern by some of my democrat friends that somehow this language they all voted for last time and putting it in as a statute might affect the net neutrality issue where we have to -- where we have disagreement. we got language they agree did not offend that issue, and we move forward. i would be hopeful the senate would pick it up and pass it. >> unfortunately we are out of time. walden -- thank you for being on. >> brought to as a public service by your television provider. [captioning performed by national captioning institute] our first ladies series. commencement addresses for members of congress. first paul ryan at benedictine college. the nancy pelosi at the university of baltimore. >> it's only in recent years that a lot of scholarship has focused on the fact that their marriage was in its early phases. >> i think in the early years, james found her a bit distant and cold. as the years we

units. but mark higgins takes a different approach. >> my crime is -- is a serial rapist.onvicted of several different charges of rape, attempted rape, nine assorted counts in all for a total of 35 years. >> we met higgins at riverbend maximum security institution in tennessee. on the outside, he had a professional career and lived in a wealthy nashville suburb with his wife and four children. but he lived a secretive double life, and as he carried out his string of attacks against women between 1990 and 1995, the media dubbed him the gentleman rapist. >> the feeling we had on the crew was, wow, that guy is really scary. he certainly is not, you know, didn't appear dangerous or, your stereotypical inmate, but, you know, i think that's what made him really scary was that he was like your neighbor. the president of your city council or your best friend. i think that made it all the more creepy. >> rapists such as myself, pedophiles, people that murder children or women, they're at the bottom of that pecking order, okay? and there's a lot of men that will take advantage of yo

we're talking a changing the way the united states approaches these critical allies and in some cases adversaries. we need to do it differently and dip employee macy is different. you don't want to do it with the military alone. the military alone is insufficient to address this problem. they are a big piece but if we don't have the diplomats in line it will be a problem. getting the think tank community and the citizens all play a role in getting that change to occur. we have to speak, we have to make the case. all of you as individuals have to do the same thing to your legislators. that's the only way stuff gets changed. washington has always been a isolated town. they are just as inclined to ignore everybody else around the country as they ever were unless they make some noise. we all need to do that. the bombers, absolutely a deterrent. nobody wants to go drop bombs on people but when the other side knows that we can, if we need to, it changes their behavior. those bombers that got over here for the exercise were wonderful, wonderful message to everybody to stop acting foolishly a

take this up to a higher level now and make it the policy of the united states which puts it in statute that the multistakeholder approach to management of the internet is the best way to manage. it's what's given us this great engine of economic and speech -- >> host: so where is that in the legislative prosecution? >> guest: so it passed the house 413-0. as you know, there was some concern by some of my democrat friends that somehow taking exactly the same language they all voted for last time and putting it in as a statute somehow might effect the net neutrality issue where we have disagreement. so we backed off, we got language they agreed did not offend that issue, and we moved forward and on a unanimous basis. so i'd be hopeful the senate would pick be it up and pass it. i don't see why they wouldn't. >> host: unfortunately, we are out of time. pardon me. greg walden is chair of the communications and technology subcommittee at energy and commerce. tony romm is with politico. [laughter] gentlemen, thanks for being on that iter. >> guest: thank you. >> c-span, created by america's cable companies in 1979, brought to

united states. if we had a balanced approach instead of the sequestration, we would probably have a higher number than 165,000 jobs that were created. but when you start cutting fire and police, as you mentioned earlier, those are human beings. those are americans. when they lose their jobs, it stimies our growth. and so we've got to continue to make progress. my fear, reverend, is that the sequestration is going to eventually hurt our chances of beginning to do what the president was taught to do and that's drop the unemployment numbers. later in the summer when the defense industry begins to lay off, as they most certainly will, if you have 50% cuts across the board, including defense, inevitably you have to do something. >> you talked about the sequester. you have republican congressman mike pompeo sent out this tweet today. he was addressing it to nancy pelosi. "still think i'm not on team america for thinking the sequester was a home run. america did fine. we can survive spending." but look at this report from this very same congressman's own district, the damage to a local head start program, it

united states, we've taken a different approach, and we've done more demand-side controls. we've tried to make the consumer pay more, make the consumer environment more competitive, and those have been less successful in controlling health-care costs. but such controls are in themselves a form of rationing. mark laret: i don't think people have really wanted to know about the fact that there is rationing going on in the health-care system. i mean, many centers that provide liver transplants, for example, can only afford to do them if they're receiving enough compensation from whoever's paying the bills to keep the program going. these are very expensive programs. the nurses, the doctors, the blood products, the drugs, et cetera, are very expensive. and yet... most liver transplant centers do some allocation of liver availability according-- considering criteria-- according to a patient's ability to pay. that's not broadly discussed, but the fact that a patient can or can't pay the bill is a big consideration in who gets certain services. another factor in the equation is th

writing a story on today's front page about the internal divisions within the united states government over how to approach iran. >> guest: yeah. i think those things are very similar today. the thing that was new then was that nobody had ever encountered an islamic revolutionary movement like this. people didn't know what to make of it. people at the time were looking for all kinds of comparisons. for example, people were comparing ayatollah khomeini to gandhi. he is a religious leader that led an independent religious struggle. that simple. and when you look at this policy feud between secretary of state and the national security adviser at the time, what you see is competing views out what this whole thing means. what's going on here? because it was very hard to understand at the time. we have to remember, nobody -- the word islamist didn't really even probably exist at the time. this whole idea of islamic revolutionaries, fundamentalists is new. >> host: two points i want to follow up. one, the historical point, it's striking to recall in historical terms what role the hostage-taking of the american di
