Considerably. If you will line on the wall. Keith dennis. Bill ford. Chance duke. No smith. Chan. Im going to stop there. Would you like to go to the staff table to speak . That might be more comfortable. Im not trying to be rude but im going to speak with my head down because your lights are sobriety. I need to my name is keith dennis as you already know. I was a para professional for the School District, i was a teacher for the School District. Thats what i want to focus this evening. Thurgood marshall was designed to help black students, latinos and Pacific Islanders and it was doing a great job. Before coming over to Thurgood Marshall, i was a lowe high school. I ran into one of the teachers i knew from lowe and they asked me how is Thurgood Marshall high school . I told them it was the best hidden secret in the San Francisco. Now, when i was going through some difficulties coming down very strongly with multiple sclerosis, i was transitioning out of high school and at the same tim
Decisions. My wife could quit her job so she can commute our son orren roll our son in a private school. I would like to say that i truly propose that the School Assignment process is a policy, if we are forced to make bad decisions and i highly recommend that we scrap it and come up with a new process. Thank you. Good evening. Im here to tell you the problem with schools. Im a graduate of the loel middle school. I graduated at the top of my class. I find myself now without a school. I attempted to get into school closest to my house. Instead i was assigned furthest from my house. No schools go that way and it would take an hourandahalf to get to by public transportation. If the buses were late, guess what . I would be too. Obviously this is unacceptable. My parents went to the Placement Center down the hall three times to ask if theres any other option. The response they got was go to private school. What if i cant afford to go to private school. The conclusion i came to is that i wou
Letter. He wrote, from the epicenter of progressive thought, San Francisco, i would call attention to the parallels on fascist germany to the progressive war on the american one percent, namely the rich. From the occupy movement, i see a rising tide of hatred of the one percent. There is outrage and public reaction to the google buses and the companies that employ them. We have outrage over the rising real estate prices. We have, for example, libelous attacks on our number one celebrity, the author, danielle steele, where they are calling him a snob, despite the millions she has spent on the mentally ill in the past decade. This is a very dangerous drift in our american again. Isnt progressive radicalism unthinkable now . Tom is joining me now in the studio. Tom . Do you regret this comparison . Yes. I talked to the head of the Antidefamation League this morning, following up on a letter that i sent over the weekend, apologizing. The use of kristellknacht. There were some terrible word
That number those number on heart anquan cert. Havent they been there forever like that . No. They are way too high. Heart disease, we have seen death from heart attacks, dropped by 60 by sporting Research Going back to the framing and that started sincety years ago. Basically laid out what are the risk factor for Heart Disease. We didnt know we discovered high cholesterol, smoking, all of those which were unknown as far as risk emerged. Out that have came a lot of development in Public Health. The development of very much something that nih Research Lead to. And a variety of other intervention including the ability to unclog arteries to the heart when it happens. 60 drop in deaths because of that research. We need go further and have idea about how to get there. Cancer certainly way too many people die of this disease. Actually the death rate has been dropping about 1 each year for the last fifteen years. We are on the right part of curve, we want to go down faster in these new develo
The president agreed to cut the spending by a significant amount. Now, would you like that negotiation had resulted from not having made that threat . Absolutely. But do you think it would have occurred . Theres the difference. I would never be one to advocate that congress should not increase the debt limit. They should. When this came up in the summer of 2011 i wrote that and they put that in the pages of the initial review. I was arguing against those who say lets look and creating a cash crunch. That is the wrong thing to do. Congress has the ability to decide what they want to attach to the legislation. That is appropriate for congress to attach spending cuts to that. If you give your teen kid a credit card and the kid blows through the credit limit. You dont stop paying the bill. You pay the bill. Those obligations have already incurred. You have on on by allegation to pay your bill. You dont let the kid keep the credit card and keep spending. You pay the past bills and you sit d
