they have worked on both marin and sonoma cca programs. they are involved in the power generation portfolio side and their team as well had the legal counsel for both the two programs. just dealing with regulatory issues, which some of our rfp had some regulatory tasks. once again, those aren't our initial tasks, but something that we may want to use them. so once again i'm recommending that we authorize them to be available to us on an as-needed basis, once again subject to come back to you, if we do asin a task and then add a budget amount. just going back on enernex, their initial bid was $1.1 million, but that also included do something designs of a number of programs that we do not need for a plan. we would actually need it for implementation, things such as design of programs, preparation of rfps. so we were able to negotiate after our interview that the projects that we need from them would be not-to-exceed $210,000 and that is what is reflected in the contract that you have before us. the not-to-exceed amount overall for community

my interest in pedestrian issues is both personal and professional. i have been [speaker not understood] experience the city as i'm walking. i am also a practicing transportation planner. port past year and a half i have been a transportation planner for u.c. berkeley. in that role i work on a number of projects to improve pedestrian and bicycle safety along the [speaker not understood] at the campus. this involve working across a wide variety of stakeholders both in the city of berkeley government, the u.c. bureaucracy itself, faculty, staff, students, several people. ~ on the periphery 5-1/2 years before that i was a consultant in san francisco, transportation planning and engineering firm. while there i worked on several projects to improve street safety in san francisco including streetscape plans for turk and golden gate, traffic calming at fifth and [speaker not understood]. other pedestrian safety [speaker not understood] so on and so forth. i think this is a really exciting committee to be a part of. i think that my approach to it would be [sp

i'm supporting both nominations. the graffiti advisory board needs the diversity of committee members in order to come up with creative solutions to solve the big problem that the city has. both for rebecca and john i am here supporting them, i do have eat meeting to run to and i apologize for cutting in. >> i hope you make it to your next meeting. >> good afternoon, supervisors, i am rudy assertion, i run a nonprofit here in san francisco. i'm here because i want to offer my congratulations to rebecca rottman. the philipino community, she is one of our distinguished citizens in the community and also i am here to invite you to a luncheon on june 28. i think supervisor tang was our key note speaker last year. now you know why we are honoring her. she is a dynamic person and i think it would be a tragedy for the city of san francisco if you don't renominate her. thank you very much. >> merilee? >> good afternoon, supervisors, and thank you for having me. there's been so much said about rebecca, i just wanted to add i

i think based on both of their past experiences i am comfortable with supporting both of the candidates. >> thank you. it's been great for me to see them come through in recent times and because of that i couldn't remember pretty much how we had vetted the first time on your qualifications and so forth. and i'm one that's very interested in local hiring and both candidates to me seem to be very passionate about local hiring and we need those voices on this committee. so i am also ready to support both of them. supervisor campos. >> yes, i want to note for the record the seat 3, it's supposed to, it's designed to include an individual who should reflect and advance the concerns and needs of low income neighborhoods and communities in the city. and to me the questions as to, you know, whose interests are truly being served by this organization go to the very core of whether or not the needs of low income neighborhoods and communities will be adequately represented. and that's the reason why i will be voting against that reappointment so i would simply ask that we take each seat separately

sides and i have friends on both sides of this one and people whom i respect numerously. unfortunate as is often the case in politics no matter what the similarities between two candidates there's a tendency to define somehow there are two waring camps and factions. we have to candidates not only with strong professional backgrounds who are both incredibly hard workers and bright but two candidates that have very very long track records in terms of progressive telling them around law enforcement and other and civil rights this is not someone who was competing with each other and it's unfortunate that some have cast it that way. those are two candidates that have things in common with civil right issues. victor is nuke qualified for the position. i have to say as i got to know more and more about his background i was just blown away. and supervisor kim's statement a moment ago it was lengthy because there is so much when it comes to victor. his work is not only extensive but diverse so much around civil rights and community empowerment and work on both sides as being a pub

a pleasure to see you both. let's begin with just the excitement and unusual nature of a ceremony like today. we've seen two popes there now and, of course, two late popes are being turned into saints. this is a day of rock stars for catholics, would you guys say? >> reporter: yeah, well, you know, the truth of it is that when you cover the koth lick chur catholic church, you don't usually have the opportunity to say unprecedented. this is after all an institution with 2,000 years of history, but this is really a first, the first time two popes have been declared saints in the saint ceremony and the first time the two living popes have taken part in a canonization ceremony, so delia, we certainly are watching history being made along with a million of our closest friends. >> reporter: yes, i'll say. plenty of people have come from all over the world, camped out all night to be here for this event. it's also a special event because we're seeing pope emeritus, benedict, with pope francis. a lot of people said, how

special envoy is staying in the region and both sides want to find a way to peace.s hamas is still doing business with fata it's difficult to see how that could happen. roslyn with al jazeera, the state department. >> a short while back this is what u.s. barack obama had to say on the state of the peace process. >> yeah, the fact that most recently president abbas took the unhelpful step of rejoining talks with hamas, is just one of a series of choices that both the israelis and the palestin n palestinians made that are not conducted to resolve the crisis and i make no apologies for supporting secretary of state kerry's efforts tireless efforts despite long odds to keep on trying to bring the parties together. there may come a point at which there needs to be a pause and both sides need to look at the alternatives. >> the world health organization says the number of people dying from malaria has fallen dramatically, u.n. says global mortality rates have fallen 42% since 2000 and the report says more than 3 million lives have been saved between 2001 and 2012 and most

>> i think a combination of both. i think it says both unemployment, underemployed people.nting to pay for college. >> ted, normally what we would see as the economy improves, as we've come out of the recession, you would see fewer and fewer people doing part-time work like this, doing freelance work. why do you think it's different this time around? >> i think maybe the nature of work has changed a little bit. what people consider to be their day job has changed. you could do things virtually from home. >> so a lot of people are working from home. i guess that's a huge advantage, too. micha, if somebody's at home and have something they think they could do, what's a way to come up with a skill or something -- how would they find you, how would they do this? >> just try. i mean -- it covers over 100 different categories. we have over three million services. so go in there, get inspired. get some ideas of what you can do. and just try it. and i think it's -- you know, we all agree that the job market is changing. >> yeah. it is. and i'm trying to figure out all the reasons f

hwang's application is he's going to be able to bring both to the police commission. and for me it's one thing to say that i want sfpd to improve on pedestrian safety efforts, to work on issues around racial profiling, to be better at dealing with those that are victim of trafficking or domestic violence, but the fact that you have worked with sfpd at such an intimate level and under how the department works you're going to be specific in your efforts in how to make sure that sfpd continues to be an improved -- continue being a community police department. and i think that expertise will really enhance the work of this commission. so, really excited to support victor as a police commissioner. >> thank you, supervisor kim. >> any other questions? seeing none, thank you. >> thank you. >> before we get into public testimony, i'd like to call up a few people that represent department groups that interact with the police commission. i'd like to call up first jeff hadachi from the public defenders. then i'd like to call up sandy fewer from the san francisco byrd of educatio

both sides want to keep on talking, both have a vested disincentive to make progress.o they want to talk for the sake of talking. there's a lot of false brinkmanship, and a lot of masquerading going on and unfortunately the only person in the world who seems to think that there's a possibility of some breakthrough, or that both sides should or are capable of making decisions is secretary of state john kerry, and for that he deserves our internal debt. both sides israelis and palestinians seem to engage in nothing more than a blame game. >> how crucial is america's involvement in anything moving forward? >> i think it's crucial in two senses. one is like the u.s., without u.s. facilitation, and going between them with both sides, and left to their own devices, israel and the palestinians will never reach a deal, not in this generation. i know it sounds trackage, depressing and discouraging, but that is a fact of life. if you look at the last 25 years of peace process. on another level, if the u.s. chooses to disengage from this, hell could break loose. chaos will rain,

both sides don't want that. the u.s.negotiator, kerry's top aide, met with both sides this morning, and met with both sides the other night for nine ours, behind the scenes the u.s. is still willing to bring the two parties together but publicly the two parties are as far apart as ever. >> there seems he is to be a lot of doubt in that process. nick schifrin in jerusalem. coming up on al jazeera america. good jobs numbers out today but economists warned don't get too excited just yet. we'll tell you why.

that maybe both on the police commission but i believe we should reward good work and when someone has done everything asked of that you should honor that and revote them in >> supervisor yee thank you president chiu. >> as you see from the discussion both candidates are individuals that want to be on the commission are highly quality. we went through this at the rules committee listening to speakers after speaker and looking at all the e-mails and documents there is no doubt in my mind that both victor and angela i'm sorry. thank you. but both of them are well qualified and it's true when i flrlt what the data is with regards to angela on the commission she was doing her job and when it comes down to look at the qualifications i have to give my lot to the person that's been doing the job so i will continue to support angela as the rules committee recommended with positive recommendation and i will be voting against the ocean. >> supervisor kim thank you. >> happy to be here to support supervisor tang nogs motion to amend. victor was one of the first people i met he interviewed me for

serrano.ou, let me take both parts of that. i agree with you about the of a commission that's working together. i checked this before coming here. we have agreed on 90% of the votes taken at the f.c.c. since i've arrived. sure, with we disagree on some issues and we disagree on some issues. but i think that's what makes the commission stronger. is the other part about it that at some point in time we and decide.down i think that my job as chairman decisions.help push when you can have an environment got 90% of the time and 10% of the time you're not, and when you're moving the decisions, i think the commission is better for that. now let me talk specifically about your bill. i agreeit's a problem, it's growing. i just had a meeting, the,estingly enough, with with my counterpart, the director of communications in talking to meas about the great probts they have. it's not drugs any more, it's phones. and how do we work together on this. kill switch is an idea that right in concept and problems and implementation. and i think it c

you can't have it both ways. you cannot both want internal political unity within your nationally defense,. [inaudible] you cannot have that. and also have progress towards peace. you can have one or the other. look at the israeli example. begin made peace with egypt. ribena push through the oslo to accord by one vote. 61-59 in ashington a choice. you can like it or don't like about what it was a choice and get involved leadership. you cannot have it both ways. you cannot be, you cannot be the leader who leads to peace and the leader leads to reconciliation. now wakeup will never happen. on the american side i think if you look at that 20 years elliott just spoke about, we never quite got it right. elliotts experience was we did bottom up very well and tell the one, the big blip of the hamas election which was a huge blip and then in the second part of the second we decide to go top down which he recounts brilliantly in his book, and we lost the bottom up. and then his successor was all top down no bottom up. so

thank you both for being here.ory johnson, let's go through some of the details of the apple earnings release. >> a lot of interesting numbers in apple's release. apple gives you basic information of income statement, cash flow statement, and some basic segment information for how many units they sell, what the revenues for the main project categories are. the biggest surprise was that the number of iphones sold really jumped in the quarter. >> almost 44 million. >> that is a big jump over the previous quarter and previous year. >> bigger than estimates. >> the analysts were wrong. >> they overestimated in terms of ipad sales. >> ipad sales were later. >> ipods falling off, as well. it was a super strong quarter for them, and the margins look pretty good. one of the interesting things, we all know about -- we all know about steve jobs passing away and tim cook coming in. one of the things we saw a year ago was a big drop in gross margins. the company said, look, we have done a complete product refresh. the componen

both of these banks have legal and other issues for different reasons and you're recommending that both of these banks as well, and tell us why. and what are you expecting in their quarterly number? >> my estimate for city is a dollar 15, that excludes the most recent mortgage settlement. my estimate for bank of america is 25 cents, that is a little bit below the consensus, i'm being a little more conservative on bank of america again because of some of the trading issues that we saw at j.p. morgan. again, i think over time the big four banks, city, bank of america, wells fargo and j.p. morgan are slowly but surely going to take market share from smaller banks as they have national scale, a diversity of businesses and a diversity of risk. i think city at the moment is probably the most attractive stock in the group, simply because it is trading at about a 20% discount to tangible book value. and i think city will over the course of the year be able to resolve the capital plan that the feds had a few weeks ago and will be able to increase both its dividend and purchase activity. >> so fu

so yes, joe biden won both of those elections in delaware that day. if obama and biden had lost, if joe biden had lost the vice presidency and still won that senate seat that day, mr. biden could have gone back to the senate with his awesome cadillac. fortunately for him since he won both election that's day he did get to keep the vice presidency. he did lose the car. and he resigned his senate seat. one of mr. biden's staffers took over his senate seat in 2008. essentially as a caretaker until a special election could be held. the "i am not a witch" lady, christine o'donnell, she ran again for that senate seat. this time she ran against not joe biden but a democrat named chris coombs. that is how delaware got its current democratic senator, chris coombs. and that is how the nation got our current vice president. and that is how some kid in delaware was able to add i think roughly $10,000 to the price of that used cadillac that he is trying to sell right now on craigslist. i have one more detail about that craigslist house -- craigslist ad that i'm go

thank you both so much. [applause] and as we now close, i want to say thank you to all of the people who have made this kind of civilized conversation possible and they know they are. that's all we can do for now. i am marvin kalb and as edward murrow used to say, good night and good luck. [applause] thank you so much. these are going out? this is still being seen on c-span. the first question in front of me is to justice scalia. why are you the way that you are? [laughter] you could hit a home run on that. >> the devil makes me do it. [laughter] >> justice insperity, the next question from josh gibson, a student at the kennedy school. the first amendment is a bit of a grab bag of free expression rights. did the founders consider and then decide against including others? are there others they or you wish had been included? >> that was the concern about having a bill of rights. you wrote down what the rights were and may be there were some you left out. we do have this statement in the ninth amendment that sa

i think that's a very important point that speaks to both improvements in the operations and maintenance side. secondly, as we hope to show with some of the information today your help, your support particularly in investing in the system. today we will talk more perhaps about vehicles, but also targeted and focused efforts to deal with systemic problems on the vehicles are paying dividends. across the board the fleet is up. the number -- i guess the third thing i would say we're sitting on a five year high with ridership growth. we don't expect that to go down. we expect it to go up and that's the good news as well as you said a challenge. number four, while there are clearly improvements we will talk about and communications to the riders it's one of the challenges but we think there is good news here in the indisises so without i would like to move right to -- actually we talked about that. this is important only in the sense that the approach we're taking is really drill down into the basics to improve the core system and to do it both in hitting home runs as well as hitting singles

i think that what you saw is both the bus and rail side one of the factors that mechanical reliability, vehicle delays for the single biggest source of problems. we're continuing to correct those and improve them will make a difference in the on time performance. the other thing you mentioned the bunching and gaping for example. one of the things we're not showing dramatic improvement on over the year is the percentage of scheduled service that we're delivery. our goal is over 98% and we have been around 95 to 96%. that's an issue because if you don't put the amount of service out that you need you have to make continual adjustments. it challenges individual operators. it creates crowding, increase in bunching and gaping, so what we're doing is the agency is invested in providing additional resources to human resources and training to bring up -- to increase our training efforts and get the percentage of runs on the street up. that's an important one to helping us drive on time performance. the other thing i will say -- we will talk about this in a minute, but it's supporting on time p

on both sides. i mean, it requires both the support of both the leadership and the president in working together hand in glove on the issues that matter to this country. does it mean to say they're not going to have differences? no. but they have to communicate and they have to be understanding of one another's respective. and that simply isn't happening and that's something we as people have to demand in the future. i think that's a level of ccountability that has to be ill lilist t from people running to make sure they will have the government work. you can't have both branches working separately and independent. >> if you look recently the most bush presidency to work with ted kennedy. before that they worked to pass nast nafta. before that tip o'neal working with reagan to pass legislation. but in each of those cases you asked about the president's influence. the president's in those cases made a special effort to have those relationships with the congress and vice versa. and for some reason tha

i think that both of them are deserving of this. let me say this, that i have a great deal of respect for victor hwang and i think that he would make an excellent commissioner. the challenge that i have in terms of this candidacy, though, is that we have a sitting member of a commission that is applying right now. and when angela chan approached me awhile back to tell me that she was interested in being reappointed, i did what i do. any time there is a reappointment before me, if the person has done the job that is expected of that individual, i will support the reappointment. and i will be doing the same thing if it was victor being reappointed. the question is ha this individual done the work that they're -- that you expect them to do as a member of the police commission. and i believe that angela chan has done that. i believe that she has done that in terms of, first, the most probably important thing which doesn't always happen with commissioners, which is making sure that you show up and that you do the work. and i think that s

and the retirees from both of those must vote on both of those.he agreement is only with the union leadership to try and correspond with a group c in july. the retirees account for about half of that. the city hopes to exit a group c, fire, get pushed through through october 15. >> the city's emergency manager seemed pretty optimistic he could meet that timetable. what does it look like now? >> they are making some significant progress. they may be able to do a crammed down with others who are not assigned on any deal to go through with it. they have reached an agreement that had a huge $300 billion swap line with the city. they're going to pay them 85 billion to basically go away. representing group unlimited texas says is agreed to take $.74 on the dollar. private groups will provide it hundred 16 million in long-term loans to the city and the detroit art institute survey to not have to sell their paintings if they can reach a deal with these retiree groups. city's plane the will be on track. everything needs to be approved. he had scheduled his

comcast can't have it both ways. we can't say that the existence of competition among distributors, including time warner cable was a reason to approve the nbc deal in 2010, and then turn around a few years later and say that the absence of competition with time warner cable is a reason to approve this deal. mr. kimmelman, what do you make of comcast's argument that they don't compete against each other at all? doesn't it really underestimate the anti-competitive implications of this deal? >> absolutely, senator franken. it's true that they don't overlap geographically, but that's not the entire competitive analysis either for the department of justice or for the federal communications commission. are there ways in which they can leverage unfairly? do they have excess market power? can they drive up prices? can they harm quality and innovation? and there are numerous ways in which they can do that. if time warner can no longer discipline their pricing for nbc programming, prices will go up there, they probably will g

both the driver and the passenger were arrested. there are multiple charges between the two including possession of stolen property and resisting arrest. one of the officers and a suspect were injured and taken to the hospital to be treated for non-life-threatening injuries. again tonight the officers are both at home resting and recovering from their injuries. the chp suspect, though, still on the loose tonight. if you know anything about this hit and run accident on highway 101 north of the alum rock exit at 10:40 last night please contact the chp. >>> a deadly boating accident at a fishing tournament today in the delta. u.s. coast guard says the accident happened before noon near the cruiser haven marina in brentwood. two fishermen ended up in the water after the boat slammed into a bridge column. divers searched hours for one man. around 5:30 the body was recovered. police are trying to figure out what caused the accident. >> they both went into one of the bridge supports. however we're looking at the possibility that the boat m

both the boat it was she. this amidst the many things from seed is to do the will of the crossing into iraq. delphi. don't know mumbles. all this to me. we knew it. if you would you know he's a boy that she of the. soldier has changed in my new prominence among the key of knowledge being able to he gained control residents of being a team woods was a little bit complicated. more than four hundred thousand people the fiendish days. within the country the one with her to pour it on to taxi to help pay the bills. he was a costume on and on but he also hosted a small basin. he did it solo. for safety. but she has phoned but not on promiscuity. choose the types to people almost dd the trio the winner. jubilee seeing truth which put the chicken cross the creek on the shelves. but she wanted to know the scene. the series kicking off in the democratic process the only constant walton. i'm praying to god you will bring about change towards safety. many iraqis feel that the same way. they hold on to come over the electi

we move on and we're both wrong it turns out, thank you, amy. the presidency has its power and its limits. in a moment, we'll talk about how presidential power changed civil rights law. but this week when it came to gender pay equity, the president's power was limited to signing executive orders calling for transparency and accountability for federal contractors. the next day, the senate blocked a more far-reaching pay equity bill. was this debate real, for show, or really about something else? >> you know, no one made any bones about saying it was about turning out democratic voters that will be needed in a mid-term election when democrats, including president obama, have been candid and forthright about how they're expecting what the president calls hibernation among the voters that will be needed to actually turn out in november. so what they're looking at -- and this is a very old playbook that democrats have played with before. president obama has prospered with this playbook -- is that they need women voters to turn out and specifically, t

welcome to you both. does this issue that we saw yesterday at the stream court, dennis parker mean that the use of affirmative action is the means to achieve diversity in college campuses is done, over? >> no, the supreme court is clearly said that race can be taken into account in a measured way. and that it can be perfectly constitutional. so those cases upholding the affirmative action programs in michigan, for example, still stand. it really only deals with those states that have passed these types of initiativeside don't the floodgates open after yesterday's ruling for states that dot same. >> we're hopeful the states won't do that, that they will look at the experiences in the states that have these initiatives, recognize that the effects are harmful effects, hurt whole classes of people in the states. and won't choose to go down the same path that michigan and the other states went down. >> ifill: roger clegg sdrk its supreme court shut a door or open another one. >> the supreme court did the right

so we found both. we found there was quite a wide range of students pre-college, as they referred to them, some had been active in protests, and one of them staged a fake bill o'reilly debate with a friend of his in high school, and so several of them came on to campus with their activism in hand, and so, for example, the pro-life groups when they staged the action, they were trying it on campus and realized that was not the way, pane some had not been active. some of them had not been very active because they had come from conservative communities, and they never had to think about their conservatism, and it was only once they were up to the liberal university that they needed to express themselves as conservatives. >> okay, a brief follow-up. >> as mod oled, why they are not fitting in the eastern model? >> yeah, you know, i think i asked everything about her. the men did not like her. they saw her as -- they saw her as mccain, contained palin, that was too bad, she was not good with the women, resin

it's simple signal system that both identifies trains and moves them. allows us to place them in cross overs so you could bring three trains in at the same time and run them down typically against the current of traffic, those kinds of things. i think that will make a difference. what we're also doing and it's back to page four as i mentioned this incremental approach. we're looking at little things that we can do that will get us a minute or two here or there in terms of moving capacity. for example if you look at coming out of the sub way portal when you get to folsom and look at the traffic light and took the train across you might be able to save some time with those things. there are a number of things we're looking at to do those, so they're all worked out and laid out. when you begin to look at those things i think it will make a difference because obviously it's going to be -- you're not going to do it with single car trains the way we're operating now. i think one of the things i am anxious to see after a couple of months into the baseball seas

so we found both. we found there was quite a wide range of students pre-college, as they referred to them, some had been active in protests, and one of them staged a fake bill o'reilly debate with a friend of his in high school, and so several of them came on to campus with their activism in hand, and so, for example, the pro-life groups when they staged the action, they were trying it on campus and realized that was not the way, pane some had not been active. some of them had not been very active because they had come from conservative communities, and they never had to think about their conservatism, and it was only once they were up to the liberal university that they needed to express themselves as conservatives. >> okay, a brief follow-up. >> as mod oled, why they are not fitting in the eastern model? >> yeah, you know, i think i asked everything about her. the men did not like her. they saw her as -- they saw her as mccain, contained palin, that was too bad, she was not good with the women, resin

they were both killed in the crash. blood tests were being performed. >>> >>> have a bad day, we work 1, 13 hours a day. you -- 12, 13 hours a day. you would come in and she would say, let me give you a hug. >> besides her two children she leaves behind her grand son and a large family. >>> a panel trying something to save the college. the officials say they don't have the power to give the troubled school more time to fix its many problems. so now they are considering a bold new plan that would avoid shutting down the college. under this plan, city college would use its accreditation but would keep its public funding by reapplying for new accreditation. that move would buy city college more time. >>> the city of oakland may follow the lead of the nation's big sports stadiums and arenas. the city is considering naming rights deals letting corporations buy the rights to name oakland's parks, gardens and recreation centers. those companies would have to pay and truce up the sites. this plan is directly cried to the budget
