of san francisco open government. i want to agree wholeheartedly with mr. james chaffee s earlier comments relating to the friends of the san francisco public library. i spoke about this issue last week and i want to mention three particular issues. one was that city librarian luis herrera used his position to withhold public records he knew were fully disclosable under the sunshine ordinance and california records act. i was curious as to what you think of that. the second item was that the library commission and the librarian and the chief financial officer of the library are presenting numbers, including a particular 5.19 million dollar figure on the blanch library improvement program to the public for which they have no support but the number. and i was wondering what you d think about that. i will assume on the first two items silence gives consent. and on the last one i wonder what you think about the fact that luis herrera gets up to $3,000 per month in reimbursement
it is imperative that they understand their international responsibilities. the u.s. military estimates there are nearly 50 chemical weapon sites throughout the country. deadly mustard gas among the holdings. with violence even spreading to damascus, officials suggest asad could have taken the risk of moving the weapons to put them in a safer police but another theory, assad knows u.s. satellites watch those sites and his communications are intercepted. is he just taunting the west to show he can freely move his deadly weapons around? i am far more concerned about loss of control over the weapons and what happens when the chaos that seems to be infecting the larger society might touch upon some of the weapons stock piled. would the syrian leader really use the weapons? in 1988 in iraq saddam hussein did. thousands of kurds died and that led to years of doubts about whether iraq maintained a stock pile. this time it is different. they re there. it is not lying iraq whe
there was heavy shelling in several places, at least 35 people killed today. yesterday more than 200 died. opposition activists say regime forces are firing at people from low flying helicopters and syrian state tv claims at least three civilians and a security officer were killed in a suicide truck bombing. the syrian opposition wants kofi annan removed saying he has failed to broker a peace plan. a u.s. official tells cnn syria is believed to be moving some of its chemical weapons. why? it is unclear, the answer that is, but the question is causing significant concerns here in the u.s. and abroad. here is barbara starr. a new worry about how far al-assad will go to keep his grip on power. the u.s. now believes the syrian regime has moved some of its chemical weapons in recent days. as the fighting continues, u.s. officials will only say the weapons are still under the control of assad forces but a former cia director says make no mistake, the u.s. is urgently trying to ga
miguel marquez, straight to you in yuma, arizona. you were briefed. have you even more information on what s happened there. the two helicopters colliding in the skies over yuma. snfrl yeah, we just spoke to the base commander. the most stunning thing coming out is the picture of that crash. it occurred around 10:30 p.m. eastern standard time on the california side of the base here. the entire crash was there. if you look at those pictures, what is very, very clear is it was in fact, a mid-air collision. there may have been an explosion as well because there s not much left of either of those helicopters except for a rotor that you can make out. the terrain says the base commander is very much like afghanistan and in iraq. the only differencing between that it s not the altitude isn t quite as great. commander also told us that there was a training pilot in the huey. there were two pilots in the cobra that crashed and then there was one there were five individuals in the hu
