i was--not raised on the weavers, but when i came into music, i was musically raised by the weavers. they were the first person who struck me as a force. they eventually became the form from which i wanted to be-- the kind of band i wanted to be in. and when we started our band, this was the template that, unconsciously, anyway, i said, "well"--marty asked me the first night he met me-- he said, "you want to start a band?" i said, "yeah, we could do that. but there has to be a woman in it." 'cause i had always been swept away by the work of ronnie gilbert, the woman singer in the weavers. and we just went uphill from there. the weavers had a great combination of both hedonism on the lee hays side all the way through the social responsibility and the powerful singing and into the total aesthetic, almost amish approach of pete seeger to life. so i was talking to ronnie about it once before, and i said, "it looks to me that your band, like our band, "all combined together to make "one sort of complete human being, you know, with all their faults and all their vices and virtues." they co

weaver? >> good afternoon. i think the real estate department person did a good job of describing this as a complex situation. we have been building toward this approval for 10 years. in has been in length of time it took from the start of the balboa area plan to its approval by the city. before that, there was a proposal to build a senior housing at the phelan youth. it was fought by the city college, who argued the should be a gateway to the college. we included a public open space which would serve as a gateway and some affordable housing. the loop in its current configuration has done a wonderful job of blighting big sections of the neighborhood. this is gone to be an improvement. i urge you to move it forward to the full board. thank you. chairperson mar: is there anyone else from the public that would like to speak? seeing none, public comment is closed. if i could talk to somebody from the mayor's office and out of housing -- it looks like there is a city college bookstore as they expand as well. just a

weaver doing this in a way -- we're doing this in a selfish way because we need our friends in the freight business to help our ability to get our high-speed rail program going because there's not enough money to build infrastructure all over america. we want to use the great freight rail system that we have. we have reached agreements with a number of the freight companies in the states that have received high-speed rail money. we're very pleased with the cooperation that our friends in many freight rail have given to us not only in accepting the us not only in accepting the money, fixing up infrastructure, reaching agreements with the states. i think we have about as good a relationship with the class i freight rails as has ever been developed over the long period of time. not only because of the money they receive, but because of the commitment they're making to let us use their tracks. and so all of this has been coordinated through my office. >> great. so what i'm talking about now is how do you -- so that's great, so it sounds like you're ready to take the next step, too, maybe in co

weaver a horrified about what we have learned already but what we have yet to learn and what we could still witness if qaddafi's forces are allowed to finish this unfair, shock and offend the conscience of the entire world. last week in a hearing in the committee on armed services, the director of national intelligence said that absent outside assistance to the opposition -- quote -- "i think over the large term that the qaddafi regime will prevail and yet it is the policy of the united states, as stated by the president, and i quote, "qaddafi must step down from power and leave." that's the right policy. but it is increasingly at odds now with the facts on the ground. so we face a stark choice: either the president and the united states takes greater action to achieve the objectives he has laid out, or we allow events to play out as they are, meaning that qaddafi reclaims control of his country. the resolution that senator lieberman and i are introducing calls on the president to take a number of steps immediately to reverse this impending disaster. first the president should recogni

and that's the path weaver on. so -- we're on. so as republicans stated in their pledge, they're here to grow jobs and cut government spending. and kevin brady and the joint economic have just found out by the facts to everybody else that that is actually what works, proven, and that's the path we're on. i can't thank kevin enough for the work they've done. >> i serve in the ways and means committee on the select revenue subcommittee, and you can imagine there's two basic pathways to try to close a budget gap. one is to raise taxes, and the other is to cut spending what the joint economic commission has demonstrated is a global perspective and a historical perspective that sets out a path way that's -- path iowa that's straightforward. it's not easy, but it's clear. and if american public joins us with house republicans, and we're reflecting their values in this debate, what we're doing is creating a pathway for prosperity. there's an you urgency to this t just in the short term, but ultimately in the long term, and with that, i'd
