and addressing this further. director? >> i want to thank claudia and julia for their work. and it is something we think in the department is really important. i want the commission to know i am committed to moving forward and implementing as much as we can and kind of changing the culture of the department that way. the important thing is that it isn't necessarily about the quantity but the quality of it and how it's done. and particularly the earlier involvement. and that is the theme that i have been telling you about since i have got here. and for all practical purposes, it is at the end and how to get people involved earlier on and the whole process you heard about today is a small component of that and the letters that we tend to project sponsor are posted online and are effectively early notification of the projects to the community. and that was a big important of discussion that are the importance of what will come out of the work. and as you know, the communication director at long last is coming on board hopefully this month or early next. and that will help move

this morning, i'm joined by jacob hunt and claudia. t's talk about what this is all about. >> well, claude came to us about a year ago and shortly thereafter, he started telling bus a charity he had started in his hometown in mozambique. claude is one of those guys who a lot of people talk about changing the world, he looked at what needed to happen and he came up with a great idea to do so. you want to tell them about it? >> yes. i am a cofounder of the small community in my hometown. so, yes, we use art to teach children how to -- how they can grow up with education. >> tell you what, let's get started. we can talk more about your program and so the whole idea is to get dogs involved. and so you're going to help me out, right? we're going to paint mr. boss will it's paws. this is white paint. you can pick any color you want? >> we would do this with your dog. >> so, just -- if your dog has really hairy paws, it will come up a little more abstract. so, mr. bosley, yeah, no, that's fine. you can notice from the three on the table, each

i also want to remind you, about the health care master plan, and you have received this in an e- mail, claudia and staff have been working on the master plan. we were required to do this based on the legislation. the department of public health is on the lead and has assembled a task force. we have concern -- hired a consultant to the background work. just an fyi, we will be looking for additional funding in next year's budget to continue the environmental work. this will be necessary to move the project forward. we will be seeking additional funding. this concludes my report. commissioner miguel: this is a comment for the general public. there was also an interesting comment, the micro records in 1901 to 1980 will be converted over time and be available to the system. with the present information going in about 1980. that possibility is also there. this is a fantastic project. >> anne marie rodgers to give you the weekly report on the board of supervisors activities. the first is the ordnance that will allow the sale of alcoholic beverages, and the special use subdistrict. at the commission u

and very quickly i want to jump into an overview before jumping into the recommendations. as claudia mentioned t recommendation are a reflection of what we heard. that is where the bulk of the time will be but quickly we want to discuss the role of engagement. and we asked staff how to engage the public and that is the first column. and the yellow is the levels of public gaugement and start -- of public engagement and that is a big bulk of what the department does. you can see the spectrum of community engagement and from inform to consulting the public to empowering the public. and we find that current practices really kind of go around and involve and collaborate and with not as much around the empowerment and less resource. and the next two are we asked the public and staff where do you feel public engagement should fall and just people's ideas on that and we found that with the staff and community, it's very similar. informing is more important and consulting or informing and collaborating is where the public should engage and not as much necessarily having the public lead or be

they are outside the courtroom this morning and claudia, what could jurors expect to hear from prosecutorsoday? >> okay, we'll get to her in just a moment. >> reporter: can you hear me claudine? today here at the michael jackson/conrad murray trial, jurors will hear more of this audio tape that conrad murray gave to police just several days after michael jackson died. it began on friday, expected to finish up today. so the jury will hear more of this very detailed, emotional, and often counting of events given by conrad murray, essentially testifying here in the courtroom without exposing himself to cross-examination. on this audio tape again, it was conducted in a police interview just several days after michael jackson died. conrad murray told police that he gave the singer four separate injections of sedatives to try to help him get some sleep. michael jackson was exhausted from rehearsing all day and he had acute insomnia. when the drugs didn't work, murray says that he finally relented to the singer's imploring request for his old standby, which he called the milk, which is his nickna

disappearing in germany in eleven years that will leave a decades long energy gap and that's the view of energy expert claudia convert who sees only one way to bridge the energy gap and it's not agreement we have new. fire departments here in order not to have those kind of blackout germans have long been world leaders in their enthusiasm for renewable energy and their disdain for nuclear power now they've taken the leap of faith but it's far from certain when technologies like this will be able to take over or whether in fact germany will have to resort back to the fossil fuel wage ironic seeing as the nuclear switch off was pushed by an anti emissions green lobby and it gets worse as any replacement power green or not will require billions of dollars of construction expense pushing up the cost of electricity that's not good in a country like germany with such a large industrial base energy and electricity prices in germany are. the high compared to our competitors in europe now if they go further up then we think we lose competitiveness that could lead to major industries relocating production out of german

and montgomery, people ask, what did they get out of the civil rights movement? one thing. the street that i lived on, instead of calling it east dixie drive, they called it claudia colvin drive. [applause] that is one thing that has changed. and in my memory -- -- montgomery -- [laughter] in montgomery, you had to go through the back entrance. now you can go through the front. and they took down all the signs. my sisters even said, you know, we have that cosmetic change that you see on tv. she said, before you could not go into the department store to try on hats. now you can go into the department store and they have malls and they have expanded it and everything. so that has changed. and the attitude of white people. when i was growing up, my father did not mind people calling him by his first named. his first name was qp. in the court case, they ask, what does that stand for? it stood for quinnith paul. the white people use to just call him jordy and they would call his son, boy. even the teachers and the faculty members of my school said they never called him buy anything other than his first name. and he was a professor of alabama state. so i have seen all
