This is something we have looked at. Commanders have often taken steps individually to curb this. My question is, are you thinking about unifying that . Are you thinking of the best practices, guidelines for alcohol . What i just talked about has been discussed. In the meetings i have been in, we have not discussed it in the form of making it, across the services. We have left it to command at this point. Thank you, everyone, for joining us today. We will see you in here soon. [indiscernible] we...

Had the pleasure of serving on the task force and i want to thank supervisors weiner and campos and former supervisor olague for your vision in putting this together because it would not have happened unless you would have done that, i also want to thank bill in particular on the task force and i very much appreciated my colleagues but bill put this together and pulled it together in an effective way and we would not have had the report that we had without his guidance.

And another ten,000 people will be living with some other form of dementi...

Underlying theme in all of our recommendations that it is something that all of us on the task force became aware of as we gathered data. And that is, a lot of us who are aging now, the boomer generation, and we really wanted to stay in our own homes. And as long as possible. And out of the home, that our parents might be in now, and it is a generational thing, i think. And so, a lot of our recommendations actually attempted to begin to instead of look at how you do that, how do you allow people...

Purge, that is the Housing Authoritys word on purging the list and a lot of the people on the list have impairments in terms of maybe not a permanent address but of a friends address and they may not go there to check their mail or be in what impaired by bad choices of lifestyle. And to be waiting on a list and be eliminated is just seems in congress with the whole idea with the Housing Authority is supposed to do. And i would like to see more moneys spent rather than someone leaving a legacy of...

For support but the families of choice are not friends similar in age who may have relocated passed away or in need of services themselves. This difficult as it is, there are chronic illnesses that a person can manage at home on their own such as asthma. The older adults with alzheimers who are without benefits of the formal support system are vulnerable to receiving little or no care to assist them to remain in their homes, if you dont have a place and a plan and some understanding of the disea...

Much different today than it did just a year ago. And thats where we begin tonight. One of the biggest things in the American Economy undergoing significant change is the labor market. The Unemployment Rate is coming down, but the amount of people looking for work is at a record low. Those out of work for an extended period of time now have no safety net. Veronica is caught in the crossfire of the new economy. She is one of the 3 million americans who are out of work for more than a year. That 1...
