Happening now, their homes in ruins, their lives in limbo. Frustrated victims of Superstorm Sandy lash out at congress and the latest delay to their longawaited help. All of yous stink. Yous have no compassion, and you got, you dont have blood in your veins. You got ice cubes. Just ahead well talk to a couple who lost their home and their plans for retirement.

Digital district is that those become dynamic and so that students are interacting with them on a screen rather than simply printing them out and looking at them on the screen. Thank you. That was a good short answer, i appreciate that. And then the last question i had, which was on slide 15, which talks about the Digital District will be executed over a three year period. I guess im going to ask a couple of questions and maybe you can give me a paragraph of an answer. Im curious and maybe you mentioned it and i missed the front end of your presentation, but how are we [inaudible] how are we going from the old process, all the work were in the midst of, and transitioning into this new three year period.

Also as i look at this one, two and three year, if were talking about connectivety here and educator devices and what they need to be able to do, the Management Systems and the resiliency dont start until year two and then sort of using your airline, airplane exam
Were not reaching. Commissioner maufus. Thank you. I had in regards, i just want to make a comment to what you said commissioner norton.

An putting it on a four year refresh cycle and i think we need to do that. One of my questions for you is have you identified actually funding for this or is it more like this is an ask as part of the fundamental development strategy. Ill take a first stab at it. Great question. Its a yes and yes. So were actually looking at identifying funding that would address the laptop issue for educator as part of our general fund, but also is going to be an ask that were asking from private funders as well to help us move forward. I think it makes sense for us to have a three year refresh cycle so were always getting the latest equipment in place, but its been a fascinating journey because it also requires you have a really robust acid Management System where you can track and account for that kind of a system so that requires some enterprise systems as well, which is dependent on technology.
