to these digital tools and those who don't. >> these young people is having computers and i just don't know, they're doing it fast. so, i want to know. >> not knowing how to navigate the internet is at a loss of what to do. >> we don't have a computer. >> we are non-profit that unites organizations and volunteers to transform lives through digital literacy. our big right now is the broadband technology opportunity program, a federally funded project through the department of aging so we're working in 26 locations, our volunteers are trained to be tutors and trainers offering everything from basic classes all the way to genealogy and job search. >> to me, a computer aon auxiliary brain, it's like knowing how to use your brain, how important is that. i think it's important and possibly seniors, it's important for them to stay in touch. er >> people like facebook or skype so they can connect to their family members or see ei

at city hall monday through friday from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm if you don't vote early, be sure

in the past? i don't think they will. . .

don't think they should let an intoxicated person into the premise. >> yeah and we have them doing that. >> and that leaves the intoxicated person on the street and for to you deal with. >> it's for us to deal with it but i would rather us deal with it than the club. if they're doing what they're supposed to be doing and not letting them in and it should be commended and they will continue to drink in the club. >> all right thank you. >> is there a particular reason they shouldn't show up until three that night? >> i don't know if it was traffic or fights started but it was a mess. >> the only way to really stop that is sacramento has to do something so you can board the bus and make arrests and send message to the bus companies. the problem is they drop down the street and we don't know -- or club people don't know whether or not they actually came from a bus. maybe a whole bunch people walking up the street getting in line. of course the responsible thing is not to let them in because they are intoxicated. what happens they're not going to leave the friend out on the street b

>> i always tell people who are contemplating writing it if they have not before, don't leave too much about the time you're writing about but from it. if you want to know how people thought, how they spoke, the way their minds worked, read what actually came out of the time. in other words, eliminate the middleman. this is why some historians are not very fond of historical fiction because it tries to do something different. historians also have to hedge their bets. well, at this point it is not unreasonable to suppose that richard nixon might have fought. if you're a novelist you go inside his head and haven't ticket. is that history. it's more entertaining than is educational. it's one thing that genre can add to actual history. >> what is your day job? >> i teach at george washington university. >> talking here with thomas mallon.

it women hear the call and men don't hear the call and there's lots of reasons for that if you go back to after world war ii in the g.i. bill you had a period of extreme flexibility because i talk about men being a little more urgent and maybe women being more responsible and flexible and men did go to college and they did become farmers and take on all these jobs. >> host: after fighting a war. >> guest: after. so i'm thinking why this is true is it because women have been the underdog? a lot of the women i talked to in the book they felt to me like immigrants. like my own parents were immigrants. that drive they have to get ahead is a part of the formula that seems to be moving women. it may be that works after world war ii they were coming back and they were like i want my job back and getting an education in history different people are charging forward for different reasons. >> host: so what is the effect on the unemployment market? >> guest: in 2009 women became the majority of the work force which is pretty remarkable. like a working woman with unusual enough in the 80's and 90'

suggestion would be that we provide for the possibility that we could set a special meeting. i don't think it necessarily has to be at the next ethics commission meeting. i want to give us to set something. >> you want to say regular or special? >> yeah, that's what i was thinking, regular or special. actually at a regular or special. >> were we intending to commit ourselves to a time horizon? or outside or the overall time of getting resolution sufficient. to compel us to keep moving. >> i can help, one issue that came out of the last meeting. we handle these matters quickly so people get these records fast. the idea is that we get it at the next meeting we have, that is regularly scheduled. provided we can do it legally under the agenda requirements. there is no issue if you want to set a special meeting for it. but the idea is to say we will do it the next time we meet. so maybe putting the language of "a" meeting would do that. >> or special meeting of x days of receiving it. >> you can change the word "at" to the word "by." >> i mean we could say at the next -- no. >> i am concerned

. it's a major problem state wide. i don't know what we could do on the local level. if the police can get the name of the problem bus and there are the same people that bring the bus transportation to broadway and oak and they just collect the money and they don't care. the drivers -- now, with the new legislation all it is to make sure no one is under 21 drinking, but other than that there is still no security -- police can't board and it's still a problem that sacramento has to deal with. >> one thing to remember with the party buses there is lots of misconception. one of the common things it's a good thing people aren't drinking and driving and that's not true. you have people drinking, coming to the city and partying and these party buses aren't taking them home. they're taking them to a parking lot and get off the bus and in the cars and then drive home so there is drinking and driving it's just not here, and the other question often the clubs will take -- fewer and fewer clubs are taking party buss in the city but why they take them there is the perception we're going to mak

's simple to get the degree and you will make our money and as he puts that women hear the call and men don't hear the call. there are probably lots of reasons for that. if you go back to after world war ii and the g.i. bill, there you have it period of extreme flexibility in men because i talk about men being a little more rigid and maybe women being more flexible and men didn't go to college and they did become farmers and take on all these jobs they hadn't done before. >> host: after fighting a war. >> guest: i'm thinking a lot about why this is true. is it because women had been the underdogs or they feel -- a lot of women i talked talk to in the book, they felt like that immigrant drive that they have to get ahead is part of the formula that seems to be moving with them. maybe that worked for men after world war ii. they were coming back from war and they where like i want to get my job that. people are charging forward for different reasons. >> host: what is the effect on the employment market? >> guest: in 2009 women became the majority of the american workforce which is pretty remar

, you don't say that. i don't care that jon stewart said it before. >> why did he repeat it back? >> this is when you do media training for someone and you go in interview, don't repeat the negative. don't let them put words in your mouth. it can happen. it should not happen to someone on the national stage this long. to make sure it didn't happen. and someone who said they look full responsibility. the whole situation is bad. i think they should not have announced so early in the week that president obama was going to be on the daily show. i love the daily show. i would recommend it to anybody. it's great. in this time, right before the election and in the middle of a situation where all of a sudden, everybody at the white house and the campaign is shutting down and trying to starve this story of oxygen. he basically fueled the flames of it. >> kimberly: there has been a response about this. >> here is what happens. when president obama is not reading a speech from teleprompter he says the private sector is doing fine. you didn't build that. now not optimal. dana pointed somethi

body. that's not cool. >> you wrote it. >> i don't think i did. >> you just don't remember it. >> go away. let's welcome our guest. she is so cute that rabbits carry her toot on their key chain. i am here with author jedediah bila. and if jokes were trash n cays, large -- trashcans, large men would bang him in my driveway. and downtown he is used as a tray. my repulsive sidekick, bill schulz. and he jus landed the role as lurch in the new adams family movie so it means he can quit his job at the cheesecake factory in l.a. the writer and comedian, jesse joyce. >> a block, the lede, that's the first story. >> the thing about the animation is it cuts you off. >> i think they got the gist of the fact that i called you out on using several of those in the past. and of the two of us, you are clearly dressed more like a mater de. >> i will take that. should p cs -- should companies mix -- nix talk of politics? the election is a few weeks away and everybody is yakking at it at work, but should they? "the "wall street journal"" reports that workplace debates are getting debatier and br

at the struggles... >> you turn your back on me! you don't even appreciate what i do for you! >> ...the challenges... >> this isn't the stres. he wants to press charges right now. >> ...and the triumphs... >> together we can. >> whatever it takes. >> no excuses. >> ...of "dropout nation." >> frontline is made possible by contributions to your pbs station from viewers like you. thank you. and by the corporation for public broadcasting. major funding is provided by the john d. and catherine t. macarthur foundation, committed to building a more just, verdant and peaceful world. and by reva and david logan, committed to investigative journalism as the guardian of the public interest. additional funding is provided by the park foundation, dedicated to heightening public awareness of critical issues. and by tfrontline journalism fund, with grantsa1 from susan hunter and douglas watson, and scott nathan and laura debonis. major funding for "dropout nation" is provided by american graduate: let's make it happen, a public media initiative made possible by the corporation for public broadcasting. >> (on

cause, especially among women voters hot democrats need badly many ladies don't like the arrogant words and gestures directed toward anyone much less paul ryan who conducted himself with dignity. may not show up imimmediately in the polls. biden did himself and the president no favors. >> one of the things that joe biden did was in that little intimate table, very small, he was too big. he was like he was at a campaign event. you could feel that, especially at that table, that joe biden was so aggressive. >> bill: now, there is nothing wrong with being aggressive when you feel strongly about something. biden wanted to diminish ryan. instead, he diminished himself. by the way, mr. biden has dodged the factor for years. tonight i would like to invite him to bring his road show on this broadcast. he could attempt to diminish me all he wants. this is a great opportunity, mr. vice president. as for the presidential candidates themselves, neither has committed to appear on the factor. the clock is ticking. john mccain avoided us. i think the senator now believes that was a mistake. john kerry

 myselfs over because i don't want to go to trial. >> chairman nolan: next speaker please. >> jeffrey rosen, is hew/] dqg ? isisa pardinis. >> my name is jeffrey rosen and i am on the san francisco cab drivers association, i'm the director on their board. been driving a cab 17 years. i'm not going to yell. there a no sense in it. we've been complaining. people are upset. we're enraged as cab drivers. you can tell. but who's listening. i don'tyofsñ know. it's crucial. we've been putting our labor into this, really. the other thing that's really important here, no more earned medallions, honor the waiting list. you're forcing our hand. we're enraged. there's no other choice we have other than to pursue legal action, most likely a ballot initiative. so let the courts, let the voters, because you're not listening. can hear that. thank you for your time. is mr. pardinis here? honorable officials? i don't think so. you are dishonoring the people you are working for and being paid by. if youi$dz)> have no common sen, continue. i don't want to mud sling. but you put yourself in a position where we

, right? >> two an extent, but, if we don't heed this warning, i don't know what it will take. because as a nation, i don't think -- i've said all along, i don't think that until americans feel really pain in some way, whether it is significantly higher interest rates or double-digit inflation which we had in the 1970s and 1980s we'll decide to do something about this. i don't know what it will take, maybe us not being able to defend ourselves or take a national security crisis where we don't have the money to protect the nation at some point. >> do you ever notice the guy is a bad dresser? >> neil: before the united natio nations, would it kill you to wear a tie. >> he wears members only jackets as well, i have seen them. members only. >> neil: cosmetic... >> it distracts me. listen -- >> neil: i understand. >> there is not much that he says that makes sense. the bottom line is this: we are still the tallest midget in the room when it comes to buying debt. >> neil: how reassuring is that. >> i'm telling you, as long as that is maintained and it will be for a while, there will be no in

. the president wants to regulate the economy and the tax system to provide for those who don't have very much. some conservatives call that a namistate. the truth is what the president wants is what western europe has. a giant government that redistributes income. the problem is social justice costs a lot of money. and some european countries like greece are now exploding in violence because the greek government has run out of cash. it can no longer pay the huge entitlement. so these people are angry. they want to destroy the establishment. with the usa owing more than $16 trillion, those scenes could happen here. it is conceivable. if we keep spending a trillion dollars more than we take in, we will eventually go broke. the only reason we aren't bankrupt yet is that folks overseas are still buying treasury bonds and other u.s. investments. that could stop in a hurry. president obama has not addressed the issue. his theme is, if you tax wealthy americans and corporations more then the debt will get under control. but the figures don't back that up. right now the federal government spends more

. that's where the action is. >> that's where the spending action is. >> don't judge the hype. the talking points of the campaigns. watch where they're spending their money and where the candidates are going to visit. >> north carolina is a place the president hasn't been for six weeks now. not since the convention. a lot of people are saying they thought they might have been able to compete there. the president down last time. they'll have to look for those votes elsewhere. one of the other interesting parts -- >> the president doesn't need north carolina to win. romney needs it a lot more. >> tell me this in terms of what you tell us to watch here, in north carolina, apparently the romney campaign moving workers from north carolina to pennsylvania to michigan and to wisconsin. >> this is what i mean by don't listen to what they say. watch what they do. they're not buying tv here. they're not -- they could -- moving one staffer to the state doesn't mean anything. are they opening up field offices? do they

-the-scenes with the similar memos that we received. that you guys don't vote on but get posted as dismisals. without a vote. we want to be sure that doesn't get lost in the interpretation. and d, i don't agree that neither the respondent or complainant should be able to have a representative. we found in the task force hearings that they sent a representative that said, i don't know. they didn't send knowledgeable representatives. and also the city attorney's office is not allowed under the sunshine ordinance to represent the respondent or hold advice of the documents. i agree with a member of the public who said that it would be compromising and set up an adversarial role of the commission and to have a member of the task force to represent the complainant. i agree with your decision to eliminate in section "e" the points that mitigate their circumstances surrounding whether or not they turned over documents or violated the sunshine ordinance. in "f," under "b," the last sentence, that you will not take further action on a complaint. i would like to see something in this about following up on the status o

or wisconsin. they had one in nevada and florid and it destroyed the economy. don't let bubbles build like that in the economy, at the least buil up resources, so when it pops you aren't broke like a lot of the states. but that is the driver in the economy... you just made a point i wanted to make, in florida, and nevada they had another issu the housing bubble, that is -- and, it is these picies that governorsre coming out wi, wer taxes, less regulations, and let businesses ourish and guess what? it is businesses who do the hiring, and, the permanent hiring. not the tax burden gornment, governments, are hiring, from taxpayer dollars, right now, things are gettinguch much better and ifousi gets better you will see florida flourish like you afternoon in ars, the expectationhere >> susan, john made another good point about the fact that the majority in these swing states are republan governors, what does it tell you? >> you know what? 41 states had lower rates of unemplment this month. it is not jus about the swing states and i would contest jonas's point, look at m beloved home state of new

from last summer because i agree with you. we have to -- if you don't make it the first time, you have to give a fair opportunity to get back in there and do it again. so >> so, mr. chair and coleman to that point, not all a through g courses are offered during the summer. there is a problem with that. if you are not keeping track of what classes are offered in the summer program and what classes students need to make sure they get access to those classes, there is a [speaker not understood]. >> you heard both presentations, one from the san francisco unified school district and the other one from dcyf. could you give me your gut reaction or some -- if you can -- or you can give me some kind of -- some thoughts that you were thinking as you were listening to some of the data you presented today. >> yes, mr. chair, and supervisor cohen. there is actually data the school district provided is promising the children for tomorrow, right. we're dealing with a crisis of high school students today and the issue is they did not present any recommendations on how to resolve the issues that are f

his eye on the main event. lou: where do we go from here? >> i don't think it stops here. what is our policy in the middle east? guaranteed to mee will not have anymooe. what we will see going forward is more attacks against american, it can kill an american investor and nobody does anything. lou: the reality seems toe our allies have decided to reive, france this administration, deciding not to discuss the implosion round the euro zone again in the name of electoral interest in the namef th kt mcfarland, thank you for being with us. we will be taking it up with the "a-team." new polls show governor romney closing the gap with certain key voter groups. we'll take a look at how romney is turning the heads of women and hian voters in tonight's chalk talk. president obama prepping way for tomorrow's debate, governor romney reportedly skipping debate prep to show up at a paul ryan campaign event. is he getting a littleocky? we will talk to stephen hayes ♪ [ male announcer ] how do you turn an entrepreneur's dream... ♪ into a scooter that talks to theloud? ♪ or tu 30-million artifact

has been saying, false promises all along, underestimated the depth of the crisis. don't give them another chart. >> what the chart highlights is, what do i like to do, christine, premise the question. the question is wrong. are you better off that are four years ago. i don't like the question. conservatives use it to indict president obama and i don't like it when others use it to defend him, picking two different points in time. the truth is are we in a recovery, hope so. recovered from every recession we've had since the great depression. the question is is it as good as it should have been? hard to prove otherwise. that's the right question. is it as rapid and as healthy as it should have been? >> is it the president's fault it isn't more rapid? conservatives bring yes. i want to bring a sound bite here from ken robath who i asked him this week. look, we keep hearing that you should vote for mitt romney because the president made the recovery worse, and this is what ken robath said. >> we look backwards, no, i think romney's advisers have been wrong to say that this is all his

one person who responded to our notes. i don't feel in my opinion that was in this case, i think people were aware of it and sometimes you have to reach out and find out what's going on in your neighborhood to find out what's going on, so i'm in favor of it 100%. thank you. >> thank you. >> i have john farrell, christian a and then [inaudible]. >> good morning, commissioners, my name is john fa*irl and speaking of this room takes me back a few years at a time when most of you were -- certainly weren't old enough to remember that this room was a superior court courtroom as was the whole fourth floor, that's where i cut my jib in trying cases as an attorney in san francisco, so it's like coming home again. i've also been a resident of san francisco specifically in the marina for 42 years, so i am quite enthusiastic about this project. i have been a frequent user with my family of the big -- what we refer to as the big marina green, i've walked past the degaussing station, so i was one of the few people who understood what a degaussing station is, but it has been as pointed out, cou

and city attorney. >> to be honest, when this was drafted i don't think that staff was contemplating that there would be one person on this own dealing with this. the idea was that one person hold the hearing and ask thei questions, and you don't do it as a whole but you deliberate as a body. the hearing officer is the one procedurally running the matter, rather the decision as a body. that was staff's contemplation. not that we would have a separate matter with only one commissioner present. and that one commissioner making a decision. always that a full body would deliberate. and the hearing officer would procedurally run the hearing. if that's not clear, then we certainly should make it clearer. >> yeah, i think we should make that clearer. >> because i thought one under the idea, one commissioner or one hearing officer is speed. so say once it gets assigned, hopefully can get sent maybe within a week or so. so at the next full commission meeting a report can be made back to the commission. saying we have had the hearing. here's what we think it should be affirmed or whatever. and

, because you understand your capacity. i wouldn't dismiss anything that either of you have said. so i don't know if you can address what was raised? >> so this summary report is the main purpose of it is the comparison. >> it rena is the regional housing needs -- our regional goals? >> our regional goals with abag and collaboration with the department of housing, they provide every five years. and anything else that we want to add we can discuss for further information. we can do it in the reports that we're doing that are not mandated, i guess. >> thank you. any concluding remarks, supervisor olague or campos? >> go for it and i will go afterwards. >> just a quick question, the way it works the report happens every quarter then? it's not going to be every six months? it's going to be every quarter? okay, thank you. >> supervisor wiener? >> thank you, mr. chairman. so i am a supporter of public investment in affordable housing. i was active in the formulation of prop c, the housing trust fund before we put it on the ballot and have been an allege advocate for that ballot measur

] >> reporter: this confrontation was outside of an event featuring governor brown. >> just in case you don't know why i'm here, i want to make it real clear. >> reporter: prop 30 would bring california an estimated $6 billion a year by temporarily raising the income tax on the state's highest earners and sales tax by .25%. >> proposition 30 is about a lot of things. it's about kids. it's about teachers. it's also about the credit rating of california. it's about social harmony. it's about hope. and it's about those who have been most blessed who have an opportunity to give something back. >> reporter: brown is also warning that if 30 doesn't pass it would trigger $6 billion in automatic cuts most of it to schools. >> our students already suffer from four years of cuts that have already devastated public education. >> reporter: but opponents say the politicians are crying wolf. >> it's a big scam. they could go fix it. they could start by auditing every department. they are avoiding doing what's really necessary, which is a total overhaul of the budgeting process. >> reporter: polls on prop

done. which sounds funny to us because we think of china as getting things don't efficiently but they have not taken the steps of economic reform people want them to take, reduced the role of the state-owned enterprises and boost consumption, get away from the old model. >> rose: and state owned enterprise versus private owned enterprise according people from china who come here who own chinese private companies. >> that's right. it's a hard place to be a private entrepreneur. 50% of the economy is dominated by the state-owned enterprises. if you look at the "fortune" 500 list, the chinese companies that are on there, at least 30 out of the 50 on there are state-owned enterprises. >> rose: two of the chinese banks are two of the largest banks in the world? >> exactly. and they want to go from the old state capitalism model to a model that promotes entrepreneurship, promotes innovation and can get them out of this middle income trap. that's the challenge. >> rose: and serve domestic demand rather than export. >> they've got an enormous market they have to ueash that doe't just

to be the audience. oddly enough, they don't get that in the jails and prisons as a joke, really. they don't, i have been sober 23 years and incarcerated in a lot of the 1980's -- [applause] >> thanks, listen, i hope some day we reach a point where that's not necessary to applaud for. i really do. 23 years sober means that i have run out of excuses to misbehave. that's all it means. i'm criminal by nature. i'm challenged by generically designed. i'm a comedian by trade. i love the effort that it takes to make this disease, alcoholism addiction co-dependency, the trifecta of dysfunction that comes from a family source that's really nothing to make fun of. i make a living during humor about a disease that kills more people than car accidents, cancer and war combined, over 92% of incarcerated individuals have a drug or alcohol history or a thread in their family. i'm one of those kids, oldest of five kids in a very dysfunctional family. a.d.d. in our house stood for all different dads. [laughter] >> normal people don't laugh at that at all. they don't laugh at that at all. i get a huge response from th

if you come to the event and haven't brought a set of batteries, you don't need to feel bad because we have $25 bags, 50-dollar bags, 100-dollar bags, 40,000-dollar bad as if you want to bring that and we will fill them with things they need so that on november 8 starting at 6:00 and you will see from the speakers are and they are equally spectacular so i hope you will come and bring whatever you can, bring that big check that we are talking about. one last thing i will say if you have a cell phone this will be an appropriate time to turn that also there are no interruptions and we will have cards i don't know if we have them yet at the tables but we will have cards in the event that you have questions and if you would fill all those cards they will be collected and handed to me so we can just really couldn't get them not to sergeant meyer. i would like to introduce you to a leading partner and we couldn't be more thrilled. so i'm going to introduce to you like who's going to tell about the leading authorities. mike? >> good afternoon. i'm the senior vice president with leading authori

this flash. >> we'll show you what they don't like to talk about. >> so lying is okay in politics? >> what's behind winning the presidency? ♪ >> when it to say winning the presidency, i'd like to think that the choices about whose ideas are better, but when you talk to people behind the scenes they talk about moments. >> there are a series of moments. that's what matters. >> remember the scream? howard dean led john kerry in early polls, but then after a loss he tried to rally the troops. >> we're going to california, and texas, and new york! >> the room was noisy. and people in the room said, this sounded like a normal rally. >> and then we're going to washington, d.c. to take back the white house! yay! >> but because dean's microphone picked up only dean's voice, the tv broadcast made him sound crazy. >> yay! >> that unfairly may have killed his campaign. even images can matter more than issues. this video is said to have hurt john kerry. this is said to have helped bill clinton. bill clinton. in the 1980 republican primary george bush had moment against ronald reagan, until in the deb

security in because they don't want the presence of security. diplomatic place because they wanted to be invisible. lou: despite the fact congressman issa made his comments yesterday on "face the nation," when asked to comment on his assertion earlier today, the state department wasn't prepared. a spokesperson would not answer. telling fox news "i will take this question, i will take it and come back to you. i am not sure how we come back." the liberal national media has been perplexed in the administration's refusal to tell the american people in a timely manner what happened in benghazi and how. some of the more prominent publications went even further going through the trouble of rationalizing for the administration a series of wrong answers and outright evasions. "the new york times" yesterday published an op-ed titled no shame criticize republicans for investigating the white house instead of "formulating an effective response." the "washington post" editorial board in their essay fo forget t they're called the presidents confused assessment. blaming that on "a coincidence cov

. magmagnitudes better than corn r soy in terms of per acre biofuel yield. i said, what? don't you know? it's a schedule that we're not allowed to talk about. >>> watch this and other programs online at booktv.org. .. >> guest: my pleasure, too, thank you. >> host: the invisible wounds of war: coming home from iraq and afghanistan. and what a time to talk about this, what a relevant time. in july the highest rate of suicides that the military has ever seen, 38 soldiers took their own lives. more casualties in the battlefield, more than one a day. this is precisely the topic you take on in "the invisible wounds of war." talk about it. >> guest: well, first of all, um, only 1% of our population over 18 is in the army, and it's a volunteer army which means they don't have enough soldiers, they're stretched thin, they have too many deployments. usually you need two years between deployments, some of them get a year, nine months at the most, you know, even less. so they keep going back. and they redeploy when soldiers are having, um, problems with combat stress. they redeploy. >> host: you know,

rondalla restaurant. as far as anything else, as far as any music or anything, we don't want to hurt the people. we don't want to disturb -- we have got a sound system in the business and everything, where that can probably be reduced a little bit, you know? as far as the hearing of the outside, to all the patrons. so that is all i would like to say. i'm just trying to pass the torch onto my daughters so they can continue like my dad and mom passed the torch to me. i want to do the same for them. well, the music has always been part of our restaurant, and it's always very lively and great atmosphere. we have tried to talk about all the ways that we can control, like the mariachi they say it was outside before and a lot of that was the trios that come through the neighborhood. but we have security, so we'll completely manage that, and not allow that to happen for the future. >> good. >> ditto. >> okay. best presentation we have all night. [ laughter ] >> welcome. >> good evening. president newlin, i'm captain moser from the police station and i wanted to take the opportunity to

. and with the courageous mothers and children begging them to stop. >> don't shoot -- >> don't shoot -- >> don't shoot, i want to grow up. >> announcer: from the global resources of abc news, with terry moran, bill weir, and tonight, cynthia mcfadden with diane sawyer in new york city, this is a special edition of "nightline," october 19th, 2012. >> good evening, i'm cynthia mcfadden. tonight, my colleague and "world news" anchor, diane sawyer, joins us with the latest in on ongoing abc news series, hidden america. this one, from the streets of chicago. diane, the powerful report we're about to see really takes us inside what can only be described as a hidden american war zone. >> it is true, but we want to say at the outset, as we know, chicago is simply a great city, filled with wonderful people. but as we're going to show you, there are some areas, where small children really do live, as we said, in a kind of battle zone. so, listen to this number. at least 419 people were killed this year, across a dozen neighborhoods in chicago, and that is more than all the u.s. troops killed in afghanistan this ye

newsroom" continues with don lemon. i'm on facebook and twitter. have a great week. >> thank you very much. i'm don lemon. a man started shooting inside a hair and nail sa money outside milwaukee, wisconsin. here's a shopping center where it happened, seven people were shot. police say three of those people are dead. they believe that this man is their shooter. right there. police say they know where he lives. they have his car. they're trying to figure it out. a live report moments away. >>> violent protests erupted in beirut after the funeral of lebanon's assassinated intelligence chief. general wa saw him wa saw him a was killed friday. some protesters are blaming syria for the assassination and pointing fingers at lebanon's government which is linked to hezbollah. syria's government and hezbollah have condemned the assassination. more ahead from beirut in this broadcast. >>> at least 85 people were killed in syria today, including five children and five women. syria's bloody sift war is more than 18 months old. the u.n. arab league envoy president with charles assad in damascus. the en

the president still doesn't have an agenda for his second term. don't you think that it is time to put together a vision what he should do in the next four years. he has to come up with that over the weekend because -- >> let's recap what we learned last night. the tax plan, the jobs plan doesn't create jobs. the deficit reduction plan adds to the deficit. everybody here has heard of the new deal. you heard of a fair deal, you heard of a square deal, romney is trying to sell you a sketchy deal. we are not buying it. >> watch and engage monday as president obama and mitt romney meet in their final debate moderated by bob schaefer from win university in boca raton, fla.. debate preview followed by the debate at 9:00 and your reaction at 10:30 live on c-span2 and c-span radio and c-span.org. >> after an entrepreneur hassina sherjan discusses her education of afghan women and girls. they left the country for the u.s. after the russian invasion. she also started a home accessory business that employs afghans. from the woodrow wilson center this is an hour. >> the director of the program at the wilso

optimal mr. obama upset some people who don't like him. they ever say be his optimal description shows is he incentive to the four murders in america. i disagree. i think mr. obama was playing off mr. stewart's description and the remark was in context. however, there is a strange detachment in play here. from the very beginning, president obama was not fully engaged. after he he learned of the assassinations, he went to vegas to campaign. we now know the cia told the obama administration early on what happened in benghazi was an organized terror attack. yet the president would not hold a press conference and say that. instead, as u.n. ambassador and his press spokesperson openly mislead the public. why? it makes no sense. and even now mr. obama remains nebulous, foggy about the entire situation. so here's the deal. hold the press conference, mr. president. lay everything out there. if mr. obama fails to do that over the weekend, mitt romney has a huge opportunity with the foreign policy debate coming up on monday. we need answers. romney should demand them. and that's the memo. now fo

. for example, i don't know if the civic center hotel may have popped up in your mind but we've been having difficulties with the civic center. they have had chronic issues with their elevators, they have tried to fix it, it's a costly thing for them to fix the elevator. we are currently considering getting out of the civic center because it's been quite some time and we are the homeless outreach community is about 55 or so units, it's quite a few units, for people who have no mobility issues, they don't have any complaints about at least the elevator issue, but we have another building that does have elevator access that's better. in the past we have had elevators where you have to swing, not swing the door but the chains. those have been difficult and sometimes narrow. so we try to find other buildings. but the fact remains that in the cost range that we're talking about you end up dealing with buildings that are older, you end up dealing with buildings that are in neighborhoods that are sometimes not the best. having said that, people are still generally satisfied with being in a buil

payroll tax. gas taxes but don't make enough income. and i want to fight for them. >> bill: mr. obama said that in his closing statement so mr. romney could not reply. kind of sneaky but effective. on the negative side, the president had two, two very weak moments. romney one. the governor hectored the president over his energy policy. >> in the last four years you cut permits and licenses on federal land and federal waters in half. >> not true, governor romney. >> how much did you cut them by then. >> not true. >> how much did you cut them by. >> we produced more oil. >> how much did you cut deficits on federal land and governor waters. >> governor romney here is what we did. >> there were a bunch of oil companies. >> i had a question was and how much did you cut them by. >> you wanted me to answer. i'm happy to ain't question. >> bill: the problem with that sequence is that romney did not look presidential. he looked like a cable news analyst. he should have simply presented the facts and let the chips fall. now, the president looked bad trying to answer romney's question about why gas p

was wondering. >> my other issue, they have been operating without a permit for i don't know how long. the excuse that i didn't know is not really -- >> okay. >> i have a question. do you know if bingo requires a special permit? >> i believe there are bingo permits issued by the department. >> i do believe -- i'm sorry, guys. and you might think this is trivial, but i think bingo is not a permitted use -- i'm not sure. >> bingo that relates to money changing hands. i think that bingo at the church when people pay for their cards is what the police -- i don't know if that is the kind of bingo that they are doing. >> what kind of bingo do you guys do? >> you might win a feather boa. >> okay. >> thank you. >> can i add one thing? >> the event on july 19th was their second anniversary party and they admit to having a dj, but that is only a one-time situation. >> okay. they do realize if they get there, there is no dj allowed? >> is this an application for a llp or poe? >> llp. >> okay. any other questions from the commission? >> what kind of actual music/entertainme

to the district attorney? >> right. >> well, they have to. and if they don't, nothing stops the supervisor of record to us, and that would fall under the ethics commission. nothing to limit it. and there is nothing to stop it. >> and also i realize some of you may not have the actual provision in front of you. and i can pass around my copy. >> that would likely be helpful. >> okay. what is staff's view of whether we should include this supervisor of records office in the definition of complaint? >> it's perfectly fine. we would take the referral. so there would be no issue of including that in there. again i don't know, and "g" may be worded broadly enough of the document to the commission, to initiate the complaint if it came from the supervisor of records. but there is no specific issue with adding language to identify that office. >> i guess the substantive question becomes, are we going to give it the same presumption that we will give a sunshine ordinance task force fining? >> i think we have that provision that mirrors closely to the task force in "e." >> all right. >> when you start

in general with the improvements on the street. and i don't want to be forced into lanes of high speed traffic, ever. i speed up myself just to get through the intersection and i breathe easier when i get to the panhandle and when i get to a bike lane and the sense of relief on market street separated by pathways is palpable. there are a lot of ideas thrown around but i think we're looking at a proposal whose time has come to be supported and approved so that we can continue to create an environment of safety and prioritizing safe cycling in areas that people can be welcomed into that mode of transportation. so i thank you in advance for your approval this. >> chairman nolan: thank you. >> j.j. strolly, michael smithwick, katherine orlan. >> my name is j.j., president of the north of panhandle neighborhood association. and we sent out a survey last spring to our members, and with 350 spondants we had over 65% felt positive about proposed improvements. so therefore the board of the north panhandle neighborhood association does endorse this proposal. personally i live less than a block f

. >> well, i just have one more question. so you don't have any evidence to present to us today on the financial impact; is that correct? >> that is correct. i can have my client testify to that effect. she doesn't speak english very well, but from my understanding of what she has told me or her husband has told me, she has been running the store over 20 years, the impact would be quite substantial. it's substantial enough they hired me to come down here and file this appeal and have it heard. and i think if you tie that in to the fact there's really no rhyme or reason for the 30 days, they are not even applying a 30 day rule, they are applying a 25 day rule and los angeles has a 23 day rule, i think reducing the suspension, appropriate. >> and what do you feel would be an appropriate fine? >> $5,000. it's not the amount, it's not the amount of the money, it's what the impact is. if my client is willing to pay that, then he's willing to pay it. >> thank you. >> mr. kessler, do you have any rebuttal? you have time if you'd care to use it. no? okay. then, commissioners, the

. they can't move items in their room and they don't really know what to do. i also want to add that there really should be -- i hope there would be more data collection. i support that and funding of services to help the seniors. >> translator: so ipt want to thank you and close by saying really to think about the single, the frail elderly and the challenge that they face in bed bug mitigation and treatment and also that we support -- i support that there is the data, the findings and processings to make this process much better for everyone. thank you. >> thank you. [ applause ] >> translator: good afternoon, supervisors, my name -- my family and i live on stockton street in clinton. recently when we have bud bug they are confused what to do. none of them spoke english and did not know who to turn to besides property management. they did nothing. they threw out all of their belongings. i support supervisor kim's proposed legislation because it would provide a curriculum for property manners to know messengers managers to know what to do -- [speaker not understood]

but not rebellious. i don't have bad influences and i try hard not to give in to peer pressure but somewhere along the road someone calms long with temptation close to their side and offers me whatever they got, but do i get the power to say no? always sitting blankly at the sky hoping for a miracle to happen, hoping someone will come around to understand. i don't want toys anymore and i don't want it show my baby pictures and if i'm crazy and loud then you're insane and rude and if today is not our day, so be it, there is always tomorrow. thank you. >> ok. the average american dream and dreamer built dreams on shatorde hopes and left off on their own spaceships of life. but the average american laws are in a state of corruption. man is allowed to work -- to go to war and kill other. at age 18 but a man can't buy a drink until age 21. i mean the government has money to pay for wars but not to feed the poor. politicians say more taxes will solve everything -- everything the politicians say vote for me and i'll set you free. but then, dear politician, why are innocent men and women being arrested fo

is trying to force you to do sexual stuff. >> physically touched in areas you don't want to be touched. >> i think sexual harassment is anything that can make a girl or a guy feel uncomfortable on any level -- if someone's touching them or even inappropriate comments. >> she's right. simply put, sexual harassment is teasing or touching in a way that makes someone feel uncomfortable. >> i look at sexual harassment as a kind of bullying. verbal harassment can be calling people names. physical harassment can be grabbing or groping, pulling on someone's clothes. >> catherine hill works for the a.a.u.w. that stands for the american association of university women. the organization surveyed teens across the country. then they released this report -- "crossing the line: sexual harassment at school." >> and we found that about half of the students had encountered some form of harassment in that school year. >> girls are more likely than boys to be sexually harassed, but it can happen to anyone. and it can happen anywhere -- in big public schools and small private ones, in cities and in the rural are

my firpt point is i'm encouraged us -- hopefully we're segregating bicyclists from cars we don't think we've solved the problem of speeding on oak and fell. it's ex-extreme. cars come down 40 to 45 miles an hour and because the timing sequence is so long you will see them go through and see the speeders come and it's every light cycle. don't pretend this is solving the problem. pedestrian safety, i'm trying to show on this diagram. and i see that there have been ball bouts proposed but most are making it easier for people to cross scott and divisadero. what we need help is crossing oak and fell. those are the dangerous streets. here you can see the proposed two bal bouts. these are the two most dangerous intersections. the bikes are speeding around scott street, many are on the sidewalk still and very near-misses and some people hitd. the same will happen over here on this corner of oak street. bikes will be coming down, any will be speeding around the corner and there will be conflicts. my suggestion is add bal bouts on the east side of scott street so that becomes a way where

>>> you're in the newsroom. i'm don lemon. want to get you up the speed on the stories making headlines this hour. >> all the way to the rear. jump away. >> that guy is the closest thing to superman that we got. international daredevil felix baumgartner jumped from a balloon today on the edge of space. he plummeted to earth breaking the sound barrier on the way down. nobody's ever done that and nobody's ridden a balloon 24 miles above the earth. he parachuted down safely. lots of skydiving records smashed today. we're going to show you a whole lot more of the jump ahead this hour. breaking the sound barrier no big deal for this man. he did it first back in 1947. 65 years ago today. chuck yeager did something appropriate for the anniversary today. he broke the sound barrier again riding in the backseat of an f-15 fighter jet. but i. wait, there's more. i'm going to be talking to him live, general chuck yeager joins me on cnn in just a few minutes. >>> the meningitis outbreak continues to spread. the cdc says these two strains of fungus are part of the outbreak that infected six

created? i don't see people letting bernie madoff off the hook for all he did. i believe he did many things for philanthropy, too. but it's all based, like i said, on a lie. if people are happy donating even more money to livestrong, more power to them. knuckleball something, you think you're doing something good, i can't say anything bad about that. i'm speaking for myself here and my wife. about how we feel about all this because we're so dedicated. we were very much like some of those people you interviewed. i defended lance to -- people would say he was cheating and i would flat-out tell people, if he did that, this hall would fall apart. he's smarter than that. he's not going to build all of this on a lie, at least that's what i thought. >> yeah. michael birdsong, thank you. your wife is doing better, we hope. >> oh, yes. >> we appreciate you coming on cnn and giving your feelings. thank you very much. >> thank you, sir. appreciate it. >>> so just a new development here. just within the last couple of minutes, we're told that livestrong wanted to respond to our story tonight. we
