we are holding the workshop together. my office has launched a comprehensive science response initiative which is now across the hhs. one immediate outcome of that is that there is now a public health emergency that could be used in any emergency. another in a decent outcome of that work has been a process that's important to get groups of experts together not only inside government but outside government to identify with the research priorities are. in that spirit we now have a standing arrangement with the institute of medicine so that in the event of emergency or disaster or another public health crisis and other interested parties and help identify what the research priorities are that will help manage this event and help us not be in the same situation next time. there is a lot of science already going on and i don't want you to think there isn't. for example vaccine candidates that have been developed are promising and finishing safety studies at walter reed and hopefully will go into clinical trials in west africa

this is the location of the workshop. the patios are interconnected, and focus on the main patio and the house of the noble. the noble is the head of the compound. he is the patron of everyone living here. david webster is the archaeologist who excavated much of the noble's house. this man probably had about 200 to 300 people who were dependent on him in some way, including his wives, his brothers, his political retainers, his economic specialists, living in this patio group and the other patio groups. they're buried here. there are about 250 or 300 burials here. which are the people who were his dependents. and essentially what this is is an elaborate household. keach: the maya noble could support his household because he controlled the rich farmland surrounding the compound. the land was so fertile it could produce a surplus which fed the noble's dependents, including specialists like the artisan, who were not themselves farmers. this was the basis of the economic system of the elites in ancient copan. for the noble, th

the warrior transition workshop, we are really excited. it's been a program we have been working and struggling, pushing the wet noodle uphill for four or five years. but we are really pleased. what it is is a weekend deboot camp for those suffering from stress issues. those that are reluctant to self-identify or being seen by a psychiatrist is going to hurt their rank, hurt their job opportunity. so it's a self-identified laid back weekend. early on it's interesting we realized we needed to have major outcofments the whole intent is develop a beta-type program that's making a difference helping our veterans in a reintegration. coping, how to deal with those things that's been a part of in mup tillp deployments that we have to have major outcomes. we work very hard on that. it's interesting those of you who read all that incoming, the i.o.m., institute of medicine, published a report in june, charged by the d.o.d. and detcht veterans' affairs to say what have we been doing with $3.5 billion in recent years? what's worked? what hasn't in he

>> we've been really lucky, we get to go to schools, perform and teach workshops. i think to be able to work with kids and talk about things that they necessarily have not thought was okay to bring up on a stage with people that may or may not look like them has been really wonderful, and so far students have been just so full of life, which really pumps us up. the reaction has been really positive. usually you get that aha moment that this is something that i could run with. >> but is it like--and i can say this because i was one, is this like the drama nerds, or is it your average kids who are taking an interest in this. >> you work in schools where everyone loves the poetry from the quarterback to the drama nerds, and then you get into schools where no one is interested in it. part of the joy of the live show is you get to go in there and read the audience, the banter of the audience, and depending on how they're reacting, and usually it's your average kid who never thought of poetry as something cool before, thought it had anything to do with them. they're the

so i think that this workshop is timely, important and an exciting moment.we are advising the direction of research where the government and other dollars should be spent spent to send the conversation to be taken lightly. i would like to turn over to doctor goldman who is the chair of the planning committee in a meeting and she will make some remarks. >> thank you so much to the planning committee. you've done a lot of work in a relatively short pier, tim and i appreciate the volunteerism of love with the speakers who are with us today, but the felicitous -- facilitators and all of you for being in attendance. the other toward him at the national academy and also online. you will contribute in many ways to this discussion and i appreciate that. the workshop format and the purpose is to foster dialogue about the research priorities but of course not to provide a recommendation. we do the leave that it's possible to help foster research during a response to inform the practice and also ensure guidance in the future is based on the most current science and to

this is a leather tanning workshop, where fine skins are produced for market. the tanning requires the labor of literally dozens of specialists -- to remove the hair, wash the hides, tan them, and get them ready for market. such economic specialization is only possible in a city, a place where a dense population of consumers provides a demand for the goods massroduced in these workshops. the emergence of cities is a common thread in the worldwide tapestry of human history. as cities grew, the pace of commerce and innovation quickened. the gulf between rich and poor widened and political power was gathered into the hands of a few. today most of us are city dwellers. we take for granted our rich and complex way of life. as archaeologists reach back in time, they reveal the individual steps in the long human journey that led us here. it is an odyssey that follows similar and predictable patterns in the old world and the new. bands of nomadic foragers gave way to settled villages once a staple crop developed. a more efficient agriculture freed some of us from the b

we did hold a community workshop in the bay view, on the cal train, quick street, bridge replacement and the city's related connector road at quint and gerald and there we connected the contractors and workforce organizations as both. and the (inaudible) project that will get going by the turn of the year around december and to follow on from that, the local connector road will be led by sfpd and public works and they will then, provide even more opportunities on the workforce side, and we can, and there is more flexibility in that those are local funds that we can provide even more local preference and engagement on that project. and so we are pleased to have held that and there is good attendance and we appreciate the leadership of commissioner cohen there to help us do this coordination with the local and regional agencies as well as the prr and that owns a portion of that right-of-way. let's see, i will skip ahead here and i am sorry for taking too long on the project delivery side and there is great progress on the project and we are a third of the way through with the concrete
