altria, the credit union national association, the united technologies and corps vis communications. i would ask you, please, to shut off your cell phones, and i would like to thank the audience on national journal.com that is now watching this live stream. by the way, we'll be cutting away from this wonderful event at 1:00 to bring the president live on national journal.com. the first person i'd like to introduce is rick gross of cuna. for the last 20 years rich has worked as a political affairs and trade association professional. he has combined campaign politics, grassroots activism and understanding of the legislative process to advance the political operations of three major trade associations. they include the national association of home builders, the american insurance association and, of course, as you all know, cuna. rich? is.

the solar units are monitored by the technology. i think there are plans to have the new puc -- to use existing communication mechanisms. another point is metering and how to measure the output of the solar units. each would have the meter installed. and lastly, the city processes as well as teh puc -- the puc mentioned there would have to be a ceqa process. and they brought this up regarding conjecture in terms of overhead wiring and things like that. the next step sounds like petrasolar would have to have a pilot project. they went through some of the items they would need in this proposal. and the proposed efficiency of such a program, trying to measure the output and qualification. we're going to be waiting on petra how to see if they will submit a proposal. the you have any questions? commissioner mirkarimi: when would we know potentially? do we encourage them to go ahead and submit horovitz register their interest? >> from my meetings, it did not sound like there was any time line. i know that a representative is here today. we

those refusing to go through the advanced technology units must, instead get a thorough pat down. those refusing to do either will be turned away. today, homeland security chief janet napolitano urged patience, specialsly during holidays. the scanning devices help detect concealed metallic and nonmetallic threats aichl device like that found last year on a flight could not be detected using a traditional detector. napolitano reassured everyone they'll protect privacy. >> all they do is ping way from the gate. with an image that is neither retained nor transmitted. >> there is fear certain ethnic groups will be targeted. this man says he's not worried. >> if they need to pat me down to make sure i'm not going cause danger to the airport or citizens then why not? there is nothing to hide. don't worry. >> and health is another concern. pilots union advising members to avoid scanners because of claims there is dangerous radiation. fda insists there is no religion threat. >> thank you oo. and plans in san francisco to change e mail as we know it. and and it consolidates chats and e mai

you're going to see companies needing to grow in other nontraditional areas not in the united states and adjacent technologies>> where are you going to be seeing the growth? obviously there are going to be winners and losers in all of this. >> the growth is going to come from three places. one is through the consolidation effort. there will be an effort to scale up and beef up for the smaller companies. so there will be certainly a consolidation in tier one and tier two arena. the bigger companies are going to need to fill the gaps in the new areas. we are seeing that already with the addition of cyber capability by many companies. you'll also see much effort in selling across the world. particularly in the bright spots of the gulf coast countries. we hear about a great big sale in saudi arabia. >> $60 billion. >> and you will probably see another $10 billion in india. there's $80 billion expected to be spent over the next five years in india. and brazil. you'll see a lot of foreign military sales. the third area is going to be in mergers and acquisitions. so i think you'll see a lot of activity there. >> i k

also, austria and united technologies, who are recently learned does more than aerospace and defense stuff. they are actually in the elevator business. somebody outside gave me their pitch this morning. there are a lot of these kind of post-election events going on around town. today's event is by far the largest. i think that we have a great day ahead of us. i think that guiding us through the day will be a guide to the new congress, which some may argue is the real reason why we are here, to grab a copy of that. it is the first complete look at the freshman class of the new congress available anywhere. it is an awesome endeavor that cq put together. i realize i did not introduce myself. i am mike mills. i am editorial director of cq role call. we put this out in unbelievable breakneck speed. how they do it is that the races that are too close to call, we write profiles for both candidates and we press the right button and a winner is declared. i think that this guy is a terrific on trade -- on trade -- entree they are available for bulk purchase or singles. as you all have probably

would also like to thank our sponsors, alta and united technologies who i just only recently learned those more than aerospace and defense stuff that they're actually in the elevator business, summary outside gave me their elevator pitch this morning. but they on oldest, which i didn't realize. there are a love this kind of postelection events going on around town, as you may know. today's event here it is by far the largest both indicated and the number of panels and the depth of discussion. so i think we have a great day ahead of us. i think guiding us all through the day will be our guide to the new congress, which some may argue that sort of the real reason why the use to grab a copy of this. it's the first, the first complete look at the freshman class of the new congress available anywhere. in print and online. and it's really an awesome endeavor that the newsroom at cq put together. by the way, i realize i didn't induce myself that i'm mike mills, editorial director of cq "roll call." the staff at cq and rollcall, the combined newsrooms put this out in unbelievable breakneck s

unless we solve the trade policies and use our united states technology, resources to help the peopleexico, central america, those countries rebuild their own economies, people don't leave because they want to leave the they leave because they have to leave. they're not going to starve. this is the big picture, global, not just united states, happening in the europe. punishing immigrants who are victims. putting people in prison who are victims. this is wrong. you have to change that. corporations they pass dollars across borders. we have materials that come from the united states to china and then they bring them back. so they can be sold here. so if we can have money cross borders, materials cross borders. but if a person tries to cross a border then we make them a criminal and put them in prison. this is wrong. people say i don't want to be a racist. when we talk about the people that were recruited to work in the meat packing plants in nebraska. if those were canadians you would not have the problem you are seeing there. very, very different. at the bottom, this has been a really

japan and the united states will jointly develop these technologies over the next three years. >> nhk world has visited a research center in japan to see how nuclear detection technology works to help maintain security. >> reporter: researchers here at the japan atomic energy agency are developing technologies to detect and analyze nuclear materials. i've been permitted to enter this laboratory as long as i don't bring in any dust or dirt. in the future, any nuclear materials that are seized or exploded will be brought here for examination. recently, high-profile cases have shown the need for this type of lab. in 2007, police in slovakia arrested three people for allegedly possessing highly enriched uranium. investigators thought the uranium came from somewhere in the former soviet union and believed it could have been sold to terrorist groups. >> translator: japan promoting the peaceful use of nuclear energy and developing technologies to analyze nuclear materials at the same time. its technology is one of the highest in the world. >> reporter: that technology could be used to identi

united states legally it can get from many other countries legally. but there are other -- there are still some areas that are offlimits to china. the primary one i would say is sensors. sophisticated sensor technology. that's been an area of considerable concern. >> hold on. a high-ranking officer at the fbi calls china the biggest espionage threat to the united states, what do you say to that. >> when you've got 1.2 billion people to draw from you've got a large pool of folks to flood the system -- >> you mean like the 700,000 chinese who visit the united states annually. >> but not all of them are spies, some of them are students and tourists. >> some of them work for the media. >> how worried should we be on a scale of zero to 10, 10 being, you know, you're in panic, your hair's on states annually. technology is open technology. technology is open technology. >> i if. for such a small if i live to a hundred. if social security isn't enough. if my heart gets broken. if she says yes. we believe if should never hold you back. if should be managed th a plan that builds on what you already have. together we can create a personal safety net, a launching pad, for all those brilliant ifs in the middle o

phone to investing in russia we will be looking at something that is related to nano technology although in the united states we invest heavily with software and telecommunications with all the pros and cons of russian high tech the russians are very good at basic research they are not so aware of development and to try and direct the basic research towards a development commercialise project i think is going to be the challenge for russian scientists in washington journalists.

a screening technology done something increasingly rare in our country united the left and right on grounds the government is going too far and invading our privacy in the name of security. provoking ire, the pat-downs these days. the government says it hears the complaints and will make changes if it can but the head of the tsa also urged americans to remember it was just shy of a year ago when a man with hard to defect explosives in his underwear tried to blow up a crowded plane. >> that's exactly the reason we put these into place to make sure we don't have other people like this christmas day bomber trying to kill hundreds of people on passenger airlines. >> here's the question. or questions. is the government going too far or are impatient americans too quick to forget real threats? and, is there a growing sentiment to tell the government hands off or just a small but vocal movement of libertarians and conservatives eager to prove they have growing political clout. let's debate your rights and politics of your safety from atlanta cnn contributor eric ericsson, editor and chief of redst

phone to investing in russia we will be looking at something that is related to nano technology although in the united states we invest heavily with software and telecommunications with all the pros and cons of russian high tech the russians are very good at basic research they are not so aware of development and to try and direct the basic research towards a development commercialize project i think is going to be the challenge for russian scientists in washington d.c. bigger profits from investing in most of them in the u.s. the higher potential return i believe is because the overall risk outside of their environment race meaning the development the talent the commercialization is likely to be lower here because the opportunities are going to be greater and you can pick and choose the kind that represent low risk over war so i think in reality if you can walk through the different environmental obstacles the opportunity to find it attractive investment from a technologist and point would be a little easier to find here and that update for now by most or it on our website tito com slash.

we're the only place in the united states that has this kind of technology. >> in a few days, edison state college will cut the ribbon for its new school of nursing. >> students will be able to hit the ground run ining than ever before. >> on simulated patients -- >> is it a sharp pain? >> it hurts really bad. >> they breathe, they cough, they open their eyes, they code, they have blood pressures, pulses. they give birth. >> it's all so students can record what they did right and wrong. >> they will be able to go into the hospital and recognize and assess better. >> edison state is the first college in the country to use ethics. students say all this experience helps them one day help you. >> you want to be prepared for that real life situation. >> it's a lot like being in the hospital. a lot of equipment looks exactly the same. it enhances your comfort level when you're in the clinical setting. >> students can't learn this from a book. >>> for most of us rain is a reason to stay inside. in san bruno it could be devastating. there's concern that heavy rain could trigger mudslides in

we would also like to thank our partners altria and united technologies who i just only recently learned how does more than an aerospace and defense is that there they are in the elevator business. somebody outside gave me their elevator pitch this morning. they on otis which i did not realize. there are many of these post- election events going on around town. today's event here is by far the largest partt. i think we have a great day ahead of us. i think guiding us all through the day will be our guide to the new congress which some may argue is sort of the real reason why we are here to grab a copy of this. this is the first complete look at the freshman class of the new congress available anywhere. in print and online. it is really an awesome and denver that the newsroom at cq puts together. i realized i did not introduce myself. i am mike mills, editorial director of cq. the combined newsrooms put this out in unbelievable breakneck speed and how they do it is the races that are too close to call, we write profiles for both candidates. we press the right button when a winner is decla

technology. rest easy, the united states still has the record for the crystalien technology in the world.at i see. america still has an opportunity to lead in a world -- a world that will need essentially a new industrial revolution to give us the energy that we want inexpensively but carbon free. and it's a way to secure our future prosperities as noted by the premier of china. i think time is running out. i believe that we shouldn't lose sight of this, and that federal support for scientific r&d is going to be critical for our economic competitiveness. and this has occurred before. i mentioned the wright brothers. they made the first plane. very quickly after that, the airplane technology migrated to europe. by world war i, europe had the dominant airplane technology. most of all -- all of our world war flew planes made in france. in 1915 the united states established the national society for aeronautics to encourage the industry in the u.s. that in part led to a resurgence back to the united states of recapturing the lead. many aircraft companies, commercially it's now boeing. of cours

technologically. it is good for us economically. the united states used to be a leader in the this, but this is one of the things that we have lost. the leadership is now in france, and japan. china is going in such a big wave that -- they have plans to go forward. the problem of the nuclear waste is a problem that can be solved. it is but a scientific problem and a political problem. the political problem is that you have to engage in very, very early and make people in the area want it. how can that be? we have an existent proof -- there is a low-level waste repository that we run in new mexico. initially, the people were a little bit worried about this. you put it under the ground in a salt formation. it has a disadvantage. when you -- the formation has proven to be stable for tens of millions of years. you can radioactively date that. the downside is after you stick it in this comment you cannot get --, you cannot get back at it. the thing has been operating for 10 years. there has been no accidents. it has been done very safely. it isn't
