police resources wisely or not using science to guide where to use our police resources. we need to look at our transportation system and revolutionize that. that will improve a lot of things, public health, public safety, commerce. so we need to be looking with a vision for the future about what we want our city to be. and i think i have done that before and like i said, i'm for prevention. and i'm for looking to the future and figuring out how we can sculpt a better san francisco and that is what i will do as supervisor. thank you, mr. davis. i want to remind folks and point out that we have seen a disturbing trend in san francisco over the past couple ever years. of years. we have had a lot of leadership appointed for us. an appointed mayor, appointed district attorney when our leaders are chosen for us instead of by us. if you want leadership in our city, i'll i'm your candidate. at juliandavis.org, there is more detail about the grassroots campaign we're building. i encourage you to look where the candidates are getting their money from. i think it says a lot about whose interests t

together which is a major omission to even talk about livability and comparable which we often look at how far we -- when someone wants to merge various buildings into one. using the criteria by which we need to look at unit mergers, the common denominator which we agreed on. however that particular project has as i recall the existing condition as part of the middle; this project [indiscernible] only talks about the dream layout, i asked that we continue this project and look at it for that particular information to compare apples to apples. it would be less, easier for us to determine what it really it is that we are merging and reconsider doing that. i'm not opposed to consider it. am not prepared to consider it based on what is in front of me. >> commissioner antonini. >> i'm confused here. i am looking at the plants. we are looking at what exists now. it was merge many years ago. what was presented as existing. >> your plan shows square footage, 2600 and 1300 on each floor. >> that is consistent with what i saw. and i'm looking at plants which are the existing plans since it was merged. i don't feel it is a project sponsors responsibility to go back and f

astronomers want to use it to look for the building blocks of life across the universe.re there amino acids out there? molecules also found in the human body. the telescope looks at the cosmic clouds and scours them for complex molecules that are necessary for the creation of life. in one young star, the telescope has already found a sugar molecule similar to what we drink in our coffee. in germany, plans are already being made for another new super telescope. it should be put to use in chile in the coming decade. some of the first components are already being tested here. >> my guess is that within 20 years, we will know the answer to where there are other planets near us in the milky way that also have life on them. >> this is what the new super telescope is supposed to look like. astronomers hope it's 40-meter- long mirrors will help them discover planets similar to earth and to look in their atmospheres for signs of life. >> wow, i know a lot of people who would like 40-meter-long mirrors. >> i hope they see the day when they find the signs of life. >> i hope so, too

it forces us to look at training. it forces us to look at fundamental regulatory relationships.absolutely. it's a very important, important event. >> it's become the symbol of everything that's wrong with the industry. >> o'brien: the term "watershed" comes out frequently. is this a watershed accident? >> i think it is. i think it is. certainly for this decade, it is the watershed accident. >> o'brien: the story of flight 3407 really begins in manassas, virginia, at a regional airport about 30 miles west of washington, d.c., where i found the roots of colgan air. the company's rapid rise as a regional carrier is a story ofmh how the airline industry has anged over the past 30 years. colgan got its start here in 1965. hi, tom. how are you? >> welcome to dulles aviation, manassas, virginia. >> the colgan family operated a fixed-base operation in manassas virginia. and out of that grew an air-taxi operation. where it is that colgan would contract with... with x company to fly from a to b. >> o'brien: charter kind of thing. >> charter kind of thing. >> o'brien: chuck colgan is a for

it's to remind us, while i was looking at these projects, they employed 42 percent women. it's very unusual in the art world. and then of course, in san francisco, benny lafono. we had the first and the last of the new deal. coit tower is the first. it is i think, one of the best in the country. it shows san francisco's history and that of human civilization shown through the eyes of labor. these are things that happened in san francisco's history. lynchings. again, coit tower, shows you the stock market dropping. something people weren't used to seeing. and a business many being held up. and in george washington high school, the farther of our country pointing the pioneers west as they walk over a dead indian. most of the art is not controversial. most of the artists celebrates local produce. this is one of the most extraordinary murals i have seen. at a tuberculosis cemetery. they also painted a mural in san francisco. finally, it's on the outside of the berkeley community theater. all people brought together through the arts. unfortunately, it was not the last. the war

used to tear down projects. but in a positive sense, i want to use this to begin to create and look at had a we're doing and where we're going. i see it more as a strategic tool. thank you. >> supervisor olague. >> i don't see any issue in looking at 150-180. we have already asked for the amendment. i don't know how that works and i'm just a guest and i don't know who approves amendments or what. but we haven't talked about the quarterly report and if people wanted to look at 150-180, i don't have an issue with that really. >> it doesn't sound like that is an amendment on the table right now. >> it's not on the table currently. it just came up today, obviously. >> it sounds like supervisor olague is really open to that. well, mr. chair? >> supervisor cohen. >> excuse me, supervisor chaos. >> go ahead. >> i just wanted to speak to what supervisor olague was saying and maybe if we could hear from planning a little bit more. because i'm perfectly willing to make a motion to make an amendment to include ami up to 180 ami. so how would this impact the legislation? >> emily rogers from planning department staff. we mig

for a great dialogue it is useful to look at the full picture. i think you have done a great job to get us to that place. if we can look a little further, taking into consideration other projects in that general area so we can look at it in a concert. >> if i can clarify, to our knowledge as the eir was prepared there was only one that could potentially shade any of these on file, 706 for union square. there were no others on file. >> right. i guess in terms of my question, the zoning, there is no other opportunity that projects based upon overall zoning could shadow? >> that i don't know. >> that is really hard but if we can look where zoning is different than the building and not historic, how could we look at how those new buildings would cast shadow. >> if i may, the shadow analysis for this plan is one of the most complex shadow analysises ever done. what you are suggesting, it is reasonable, is look at zoning to look at that shadow analysis for every potential site in the area. might be technically difficult. >> right. to the extent -- i thi

that is what netflix used to look like. let's look at the fox 50 right now. ar read than you do green. dell is number one at the moment. viacom coming up next. we have very thin volume. let's get to nicole petallides. what are you watching? nicole: i am taking a look at some of the banks. how about a look here at national bank of greece. it is not trading on friday. it is trading today. you can take a look at this big john. it is all on the heels of something that leaked out. that is a huge move. @alks about the fact that those national bank of greece was in a merge about talks. they got a big jump after the news broke that a-rod is hearing about these merger talks. back to you. liz: thank you very much. drivers in california seeing skyhigh gasoline prices at the pump. well above five dollars a gallon. the plot is not the reason. the statewide average prices approaching five dollars. and the golden state is not the only one. seven states are now seeing prices well above four dollars a gallon. let's get more perspective. first, let's talk to sandra smith who is

so we see that there is a lot of cause for concerns and the trends um, cause us to look at these chemicals and say what is going on here. we know from the science that chemicals are ending up where they are not supposed to be and that is inside of our bodies. scientists can measure the chemicals getting into us, bio measuring. this is from the first chapter, indecent exposure, the intimate details. charlotte was surprised by the test results. mother of 2 among the first people to be tested for a wide range of industrial chemicals. test revealed that her body contained mercury lead cosmetics. i felt violated charlotte reported. she was upset about the pesticide. i never used them in my house, never on my lawn. i bought organic whenever i could. her body contained several variations of organic chlorines designed to attack nervous systems of insects. i never bought it. isn't that trespassing. i tell this in my story of mary broon. mary never felt called to be an environmentalist she was nursing her 6 month daughter olivia and a story had been done by texas tech where they looked at breast mil

going to ask our planning commissioners to say in determining whether to approve this project, look at whether this is going to help us with our housing affordability crisis? i don't think that it works to try to convey the impression, whether it's intended or not, that the only thing that really matters is that they need to focus on is whether it is 0-50 or 50-00 or 80-120? i believe this dashboard will not present a full picture of our housing crisis and what our needs are and assumes that public investment is enough and it isn't. it doesn't even include, as i mentioned before, 120-150% and i have asked for that over and over and over again in hearings and otherwise and it's still not in there. you know, when the fact is that unless we have some sort of major change in washington, d.c., and we have a huge influx of investment in affordable housing from the federal government, most people in this city are never going to live in subsidized formerly below market-rate housing. they are just not going to and in my district the upper market area, the number of people who are living alone and hanging on by their fingernail

because even in the middle of the night in lower manhattan to lights are burning. >> it definitely does not look like the view that you get used to looking at every night. >> have you experienced anything like this? >> you know, for hurricane irene, we expected the worst. we had no idea what to expect. the damage is something -- it is definitely something [indiscernible] >> i guess there are an awful lot of people who will need help and it will be sometime before n.y. get back to normal again. >> getting all of the areas that were damaged help and for people out of power, it is going to be a big operation. >> thank you very much indeed for talking to us. i hope your community center gets pumped out very quickly. that me give you a bit more on this levee we heard about in northern new jersey. it is flooding towns with four to 5 feet of water in the wake of hurricane sandy according to officials at. we are in rescue mode according to the chief executive. what we have been hearing from local people is what has happened is there was a trailer park there which has been inundated and people have been climbing onto their roofs of the

to deny the conditional use of the open space. safety; there is a rigid commitment to new curb cuts; i was almost hit this morning, i can't imagine what it would look like when there entry and exits from walgreens and from the building running into each other. turning different ways in the kind of crazy street. i ask for your consideration of keeping those curb cuts on market streets and moving the entrance for safety. >> thank you very much. >> commissioners again peter cohen; we have a letter on file with the staff referred to, fully endorsing this project. i will get into a few of the issues we talk about but listening to deputy speaker i appreciate when other folks in the community come to you who are not professionals of the lectern; those are real, that's the experience people have. reflecting an everyday experience, and doing the best possible, to try to make the project addresses issues rather than falling back on planning code and design guidelines and professional stuff. i implore you to take that seriously. we spent a lot of time with our projects as you know; we have done reviewing almost every one of the projects mentioned on market st

this is what the district used to look like and this is what it looks like now. it has parts of germantown and potomac and now registered democrats outnumber republicans there by more than 40,000. as bruce reports that means district six's long time congressman is facing a real battle to hold on to his job. and the man trying to take it is john delannie. >> reporter: john delannie, a wealthy entrepreneur, a democrat with the big house outside the district in potomac is trying to see bartlett. >> he is making things up, completely false stuff. >> reporter: they found mistreatment of seniors. bartlett, the republican is trying to turn his business background against him. >> these are not our words. >> i'm proud what my companies have done and all the jobs that we've created. >> reporter: bartlett has struggled with gasps. he said that federal student loans are against the constitution and suggested that is what led to the holocaust. >> if you ignore the constitution, and it will do something bad. >> reporter: and the democrats have tried to try bartlett toed to aik

important for them to know where individual projects, you know, put us in the overall goals of achieving these objectives? i actually think it would be a mistake for us to assess and look at individual projects in a vacuum without really understanding where they fit in the larger picture. and, in fact, i actually think that if you look at sort of the regional objectives that have been placed on san francisco and the regional objectives that we have under our own housing element, you know, we need to produce 31,000 units of additional housing by the end of 2014. we have certain objectives at the regional level that require a certain level of affordability in terms of the units built and i don't see how we meet these goals without having this information and without engaging in this kind of analysis. so i want to thank supervisor olague for putting this legislation forward. think this is something that we should have done a long time ago. and i think that the longer that we wait to do it, the more difficult it will be for us to meet our objectives. >> thank you. supervisor wiener? >> thank you very much. thank you supervisor campos for your perspective. you know, i actua
