Right now the top three priorities are bringing some calm to the ethical situation that has been confronting city hall continuing to make progress with public safety improving the safety of all citizens and workers in the district of Columbia and third to give the appropriate attention to public education and making our public education system the best in the country. What I like about being on the council and as chair of the council is the ability to not only work on important policy but also the day-to-day interaction with citizens and from time to time I'm able to help somebody in a way that they're so appreciative that it's very very gratifying and rewarding. I mean it doesn't happen every day but you know we get requests all the time from people to help them with problems typically helping them with some of the bureaucracy in city hall and when we can cut through that for somebody and really make a difference it's very rewarding. You know a lot of folks ask me why I think DC is the greatest city in the world and there are a number of reasons why I think it's a great city. The first thing everybody says is diversity in Washington is a very diverse city and it's wonderful because of that. The city is a very vibrant city we've been fortunate that we've not been hit by the recession in the way other cities have and so what we've seen is actually a city that not only has grown but really it feels like it's on the move. Our population is growing and people will enjoy being here and we see a lot of tourists in the town but also a great nightlife. I mean there's so many facets to the city that are attractive to a wide range of people. It's just a great place to live, work and play.
