and california used to have an education system that was the envy of the nation. how do you feel we get that back? >> well, it is a tragedy that what used to be one of the top systems in the country is now i think, 47th according to a recent standard that i saw. the senator and folks in his party in sacramento believe that spending more is the answer. that is clearly not the case. i think that los angeles county they spent $9,000 per student in public school system. the average cost of private school $6,000. i support the voucher system that allow the parents to put the children in charter schools, private schools, what we cannot escape is that the school system is broken, again, let's ask the senator, why did the senator support, why did the senator oppose legislation that one of his fellow democrats proposed that would remove dangerous teachers that were convicted of crimes from the classroom and from the public roles? i would like to know the answer to that. >> thank you. mr. leno. >> the 47 out of 50 states figure that miss dillan used is not in educational ou

in california, you might hesitate once you grab the handle of the gas pump. california often has some of the highest gasoline prices in the u.s. but this is off the charts. the nationwide average is $3.81 a gallon, but in california, it leaped to an average of $4.65. in san jose, it's $4.65 for regular, $4.85 for premium. but in la, regular is nudging $5 and premium is $5.29 a gallon. enough to make you put the handle back without filling up. california governor jerry brown ordered state regulators to allow refineries to produce more gasoline - even switching to winter blend, which can be made more easily than the less-polluting summer blend. in a letter to regulators, brown said, "if this situation continues, it may cause unacceptable price impacts for consumers and small businesses, significant economic disruption, and serious harm to public safety and welfare." oil analysts say the spike in gas prices began after a fire at a chevron refinery in the bay area and two recent shutdowns at refineries near los angeles. but senator dianne feinstein wants the fede

in addition, the california department of public health scanned five additional areas. these light blue areas, that are not even on the navy's list or of any concern, but they were asked to be -- city asked them to scan them just because they are high use, high traffic areas just to verify that there's no problems. and again, none of these areas showed any levels and they are all considered safe. so, the question is well, why is the navy doing any work if everything is fine. and the answer is the navy is required to remove any levels above background. and you can have levels very high above background and not be a health concern. and that's the disconnect that people don't quite understand. in this case, as i said, all the areas that they surveyed, they haven't found anything above background. but if you did, would it necessarily be a hazard today or to any residents? so, when the navy does their scans and they very carefully move soil around and scan some more and scan some more, they might find an area above background and they are required to clean that up. and, so,
