point without the input of so many people, beginning with the director wrote public health, mitch katz, the incoming director, and their staff, as well as the planning director and his staff, as well as so many stakeholders, including members of the industry. the hospital council, and community members. so to all of them, thank you. a number of amendments have been made to the legislation that we believe have allowed us to strike the right balance between all of the competing interests and i know that we have a pretty full agenda, so i do not want to belabor the point. i would simply ask colleagues for your support of this legislation today. thank you very much. supervisor dufty: thank you. i want to thank supervisor campos. there were times at which some of our major health care institutions and hospitals have expressed concern about the implications of this legislation. truthfully, i looked at it as what i see as a very important tool for the future of the city and a process that i believe in retrospect 20 or 30 years from now will be seen as a significant step to comprehensive look

professor david katz from the human rights movement world without naziism says the revival of nazi ideas in eastern europe is not only about people but also about decision makers too there is a dangerous a political and intellectual trend of nationalism of states not wanting any staying in their history and of course participation in the holocaust is a stain in the history of a number of east european countries and very brave individuals and n.g.o.s in the ninety's and beyond were standing up to teach their people the truth but unfortunately the baltic governments decided to deal with it in a very dishonest way to confuse confound the nazi and the soviet crimes into one mixture by setting up state commissions and in the end with the lamia by actually launching prosecutorial investigations against holocaust survivors who are alive because they joined the anti nazi resistance and also by the glorification of participants in the holocaust in various museums in the region so if i say as i do that some soviet crimes were horrendous but they did not amount to genocide the two are not equal i n

bloiment is 9.6% and larry katz has a nice way of capturing just how bad the job market is.would essentially need job growth as rapid as we had from 1997 through 2000, that four year period to get the unemployment rate down to close to where it was before this recession began. we wouldn't even get it all the way down to where it began, and of course we're not going to have four years of job growth like 1997 to 2000 next month. we're a long way away from that which is to say we're many years away to having a healthy job market in any way. the job market is the economy's weakness. we have capital that's not being used. workers are not being used. we have a real problem, and on the one hand toward the end of these tough times, it's very easy to get too down; right? my favorite example of that is that in scene of this 1996 which we think of as the great internet boom, but 1996 didn't feel like the boom. pat won the primary, news week ran an article called corporate killers about ceo's laying people off and had mug like shots. the "new york times" ran a story called the downsizin
