within the cohort of people that should be within the working age, we've got fewer working and all of us need -- both parties need to focus on that. it's one reason the middle class is feeling a lot of pain right now. >> well, let's reflect on the fact that there is a long way left to go. we have gone from an economy that was losing over 700,000 jobs a month by the administration took office to one that gains nearly a quarter million in the last report. so there's a lot left to do. but things seem to be getting -- we're adding jobs. >> you have to add more than how many that actually have gained on that chart right there. how many are added? do you know off hand? the number of people that are added to the cohort? if you don't add at least that number of jobs, you're falling behind? >> the numbers -- normally you need to grow 2%, 2. 22 2.5%, 110,000 jobs a month to keep it stable in terms of the unemployment rate. >> we're above that now. >> yeah. >> thank you very much, mr. chairman. we prappreciate your testimony. >> thank you. snifrment >>> there are two meetings taking place on the keyston

if we do not want it, we do not need to use it. perhaps it might make sense for you to direct us to date for the meeting. supervisor campos: i think this is connected directly to cca and that he would be helpful for staff to get a sense from this commission on what dates might work in terms of a joint meeting and maybe take a couple of days to survey the members of the commission or maybe today to find those states and submit something to the commission. >> that is great. if you could just give us that direction, that would be fabulous. commissioner campos: unless there is objection, i think that direction is given. why don't we open up to public comment? any member of the public who would like to speak on item 5, if you could please come forward. i know that a number of these items, that the issue of cca will be coming at some point before the board. >> once again, eric brooks, san francisco green party and our city. just to quickly touch on the things you have touched on -- one, in reverse order, i think we do need a joint meetin

you guys are the faces and the voices of recovery, and the state needs to see that and to know that giving us half a chance, we can turn out to be some pretty wonderful people. texas recovers is proud to present thomas "hollywood" henderson, a man in long-term recovery. how you doin', thomas? (applause) the suffering need to know that-that there is an us, and the us need to reach out to the suffering. and so bringing events like this around the country lets people know that people recover. people recover. substances took me down some roads that i shouldn't have gone down. i spent 7 months in treatment, aftercare, morning care, every care, give me some care, where is the care? i'm probably the proudest recovering alcoholic in the world. i haven't had a drink or a drug for 27 years, 10 months, and a few days.

every day, there is a balance between what we need to undertake to do our job and to prevent the results of a substantial terrorist attack, but every one of us understand it is a balance. particularly the bureau over the years has understood that in conducting investigations, you need revocation. you need start, and you build up a vacation before you take the next investigative step that may further intrude on one's privacy and the like. i will tell you that our agents are inculcated with the understanding that they are given a great deal power, a great deal of ability to affect persons lives. understanding the necessity of operating within the constitution, within the applicable statutes of the attorney general guidelines is drilled into all of our new agents. as i indicated before, my predecessor set up a process whereby every one of our agents goes to the holocaust museum to make certain that they understand they understand what happens when a law enforcement or intelligence agency gets off the tracks. >> you addressed one of my upcoming questions, but there was a variation on it that i thought would be interesting to share with you. it s

but we also need to remember that he is above all patriotically inspiring us. when his uncle roy volunteered to serve with the british raf in world war ii before the u.s. entered the fray, jim very much saw him as a hero. and this is a picture of him in uniform, the kind that his family is willing to share to demonstrate his marvelous values and patriotism. here he is with pat overlooking fort sumter. and for the final word, it won't really be mine but rather as is his due, james mcpherson taking his final words to us from his jefferson humanities lecture. "in 1861 lincoln said that the struggle for the union involved not only the fate of these united states but also the whole family of man. it was a struggle not all together for today but for a vast future also. we are living in that vast future. lincoln's words resonate in the 21st century with as much relevance as they did seven score years ago. and these words of jim mcpherson become more true with each passing year in the 21st century. thank you very much.

if you need something&j, let us know. ok? have a wonderful day.ted 11 years ago when i started doing resolution work is can anything be presented on a really low resolution device where it is potentially a digital image? can anything be presented that way? or will it feel cold and electronic? >> the imagery will change. there will be four different sets. it is a two dimensional image. it is stretched out into three dimensions. the device is part of the experience. you cannot experience the image without the device as being part of what you are seeing. whereas with the tv you end up ignoring it. i make gallery work more self and budget and public art work where i have to drop this of indulgence and think about how people will respond. and one of the things i was interested in the work and also a little fearful of, it is not until you get to the first and second floor were the work is recognizable as an image. it is an exploration and perception is what it is. what are you seeing when you look at this image? one of the things that happens with reall

we need an enemy and the using are now the question is will the reset survive this or is the kremlin delivering x. blows to the us russian cooperation and i think it is a setback did you feel at ease in this role of being an enemy for the job even though the couple of weeks is not really because i'm not sure that'll do for back i've seen surveys were people think that twenty five percent of people think the united states is behind the opposition protests and forty five percent are quite sure which adds up to seventy percent so you're changing russian public opinion or russian public opinion can change back and has gone back and forth but for now we're living through a fairly officially sponsored anti-american phase the russian global affairs this is the name. that you read it in can you tell us there are real threats for russia from abroad from somewhere well except terrorism extremism and well that. actually there's a unique moment in russian history when we cannot identify any major power to threaten russia to to pose a real trip and including the united states i would disagree. wi

important area to focus on and there are important revenue increases but the budget does not get us close to where we neederms of bringing down the debt and do so in a way that helps with the economy to help with economic recovery. they used too many gimmicks, and were not aggressive enough in the savings and the areas that they need to be. in the end, if we do not start talking realistically of what we need to, it will ignore the issues that we have to face. >> one of the things that the president had to say over in virginia on the warren buffett tax cut. >> warren buffett pay as lower tax rate than his secretary. it does not make sense. i do not need a tax break. we do not need to provide additional tax cuts for folks that are doing really, really, really, well. >> but the fact is the warren buffett tax increase would not do anything. >> it's a serious problem to say we have growing income in equality, let's think about making the tax code more progressive. that should be on the table. but we have to say, there's not enough revenue from billionaires and millionaires to loclose the gap but we have to loo
