Welcome to the support group, we invite you to sit down have a shoplifter drink soft drink or maybe something a little stronger, what has happened to the stocks that went up last year, why have the shares that loved you so much in 2013, facebook and amazon, turned cold . I cant promise any definitive answers, a few weeks ago at least we had crimea or china or yellen to point to. But in the past few weeks including this one the worst for the nasdaq and s p, including this one, maybe it is just momentum in reverse, the stocks went up for seemingly little reason when they rose, now theyre fallen just because they can. You are forgiven if you want to avert your eyes, the dow falling, suffering its first weekly loss in four. The nasdaq, which is actually higher shortly after the opening bell fell hard down 54 today, closing below 4,000, techheavy nasdaq now down 6 and a half percent since three weeks, biggest decline, and s p seeing the biggest drop since june 2012.

Of course were all here today to celebrate something new. But when i look out on all of you gathered here, i see something very familiar about this gathering. Yes, were here to break ground on something new, a New Buildings that will house the new st. Anthonys dining room and 90 units of Affordable Housing f
Supervisor kim, supervisor yeee, supervisor cohen and supervisor dufty and those are just too name a few. For mercy, these opportunitis are just few and far between. We were talking earlier, barry and i about how many people st. Anthonys sees on a regular basis. These 89 Affordable Housing units and one managers unit is an unbelievable accomplishment. And the sad thing its just a drop in the bucket compared to the need we have. I think all of you know that, which is why you are here today. Were blessed to have the leader here today and i wish all your colleagues in congress could be as supportive as you have been over the years so people would understand the need. Unfortunately with the situation that we have nationally, the funding for programs like this are really stretched and there is a lot the doubt if well see more of this funding in the future.
