please come back and report on it. >> my questions were on commissioner ho you gusts an excellent report and overview i don't have further questions. >> okay. >> thank you for a wonderful report and i know that prior inform the oversight agency the the other agencies has been trying to report for years you guys have begun a great job where it's manageable of the 16 leases do we have liability on the other leases besides the bonds as far as maintenance of the building and like - >> so the leases are overwhelmingly on month to month except for one that is under 65 year term leases there's no liability we have an agreement with the mayor's office of housing of housing to make sure the affordability is taking care of the work order agreement we will have new liability we own the cupid stand and we'll own that and need to insure it and provide for its maintenance good news is we'll have an ongoing agreement for payment of cupid said person but reiskin con park will be a liability and there's a 10 year agreement with the gap for skirt of rincon park of $300,000 we'll get to offset that obligat

you are an excellent writer and an on the ground journalist as well and that helps to bring alive the the characters and locations in which you are meeting these people. you have gone around to meet the top of the chain from joseph to the bottom of the chain the individuals that really get hurt. yet you talk about some specific individuals that are just numbers in this package which is representative of numbers. you mentioned a woman named theresa in atlanta who at one point was paying it and things happen and make got involved in this. >> guest: you are absolutely right. what is being bought and sold here you can think of it almost as some sort of fake commodity like coffee shares. you're just looking at the string of numbers on the sheets and there are thousands of them and this one paid in this one didn't pay. you think this package of several thousand lines on an excel spreadsheet or basically several thousand stories of people's lives who for one reason or another have fallen into financial ruin. i managed to get ahold of the spreadsheet in a package that got stolen and i was loo

excellence it's a condition and procedure you can plan there's a lot of procedures and there's a fair amount of wide variety of costs in the marketplace with what they found in their data to be the same outcome in other words outcome was the same but costs were ranging from here to here it's a perfect category to reference based price and negotiate with the facilities and create an environment that lowers the costs and keeps quality high and you know really gives the result that reference based pricing is trying to achieve achieve. >> i know i if were looking for hip replacement i would want to talk to my friends. >> they're doing the due diligence on behalf of their members and their understanding that they quite frankly the outcomes are not teller different but the costs are thirty thousand to one hundred. >> so you would have a list of doctors that are are reasonable price of good outcomes. >> i have to be familiar with that effort by cal vices they invited the university of california to participate when i had responsible for their health care programs it's not price dreeven it re

not sisters in terms of whether we can get technology funded but we remain committed to operation excellence the new initiatives are highlighted so there's a hope we'll be able to automate those and it keeps getting punched off maybe not until the second year the affordable health care we'll continue those and the new ones to identify inform mitigate to the excise tax to implement the database and to enhance opportunity to participate in research projects which will improve the well-being of our members and in terms of the that transparent governance our new initiative we'll continue the initiatives in place and we would like to consider implementing the distribution in the health service for materials and funding conferences for a commissioner to attend one per year and that can be changed and to insure that the i f e b and updates are available to board members in terms of goal 4 we would continue our ongoing initiative and new initiatives would include updating the website and increasing the digital communication with members that requires hurdle and continuing to engagement the departmen

cameo. >> excellent.>> good morning. >> nice. >> when it comes to producing a movie the hardest part really is getting financing. well lula is asking for the internet's help. he's got this page he wants $37,333 for production. over 2500 now. he breaks it completely down. help him to make this movie and maybe you could also be part of the movie. >> skype with him and promote his film. maybe they'll put the skype in their film. >> oh! >> we can give him a couple bucks, too. >> let's do ! >> i think it's time we revisit 50 ducks in a hot tub. of course that would be a youtube channel where somebody raises a whole lot of ducks and we watch the beauty of it. we start with doug the duck protector. as you can seeing doug not a duck but a dog. >> look at the little duckling. >> he knows that all of these little ducklings have been born. they are a day old. there's 200-plus of them. look at doug big, giant dog, he's fascinated by them. i love the second video. this is 330-plus ducklings. this is their first day ou

you think this package of several thousand lines on an excel spreadsheet or basically several thousand stories of people's lives who for one reason or another have fallen into financial ruin. i managed to get ahold of the spreadsheet in a package that got stolen and i was looking at it and think to myself these are stories here. these names in these numbers represent something that has happened. so i started kind of reaching out to some of these people and explaining i'm a journalist and looking into this particular piece of debt that i think was stolen and i want your story. most people just hung up on me but a few who i profile in the booktalk and what they said theresa's the woman you mention. she was a former marine. she defies any stereotype we have of a debtor. she's helping her parents have for mortgage. her life falls apart after she gets out out of the marine corps. she finds out her husband is cheating on her. she kicks him out of the house and she is still on the hook for the vehicle payments in the mortgage and she falls behind on her bills. at that point the fees start kic

it takes a collaborativive and a community to provide these excellent service and so at this point i would say that i feel that we made some major headway and i think that we are in it together and communicating, and i really look forward to next year's reporting. and the out comes but it is going to take the unique work and the area which is a fantastic place and that did not happen, and so we will work and we will provide what is second best and this protocol that we can agree to and we will provide the unique options for san franciscans. and so, again, thank you very much for par participating, in this >>> that go -- that is not a flip remark. there is a value of dollars. that's fine. you have to figure out how you cover it and there is a value of integrity and there is the value of social and economic and health equity. i think it's exactly that particular different set of values where we are having some major issues. i would agree with large number of the health commissioners observations that we have health equity concerns and issues that are resurfacing right out of the heated

. >> first of all, excellent presentation and mostly because of the excellent work behind it and the thought process i very much appreciate that. what do you need from us? >> that's an interesting question i think a few things and it goes back to your commitment. our our expectation is that you are going to continue to meet your reliability goals that you have committed to under the level of service that means that obviously our demands are much lower than 265 right now as a region but as a region. . skwshgs. the question of addressing the contractual side the fact that the projected purchases are less than 265 and less than 184 the 2018 question is much easier doesn't necessarily have to be addressed the same way however that's critically important and i'd encourage all of us to continue to talk about that even though it's not the hammer than it was in 2007 when we first started talking about it. but you are the single largest supplier to our agency so they need to make sure your supply is reliable and it's there and you protect it from outside threats. that's our expectation from y

guess more for looking at the design for the arena i know that architect and produced team do an excellent job of looking at the arena and the open space and it's orientation to more information on the site but you guys kind of answered a little bit of my questions i understand it is definitely considered part of the design and orientation but i'd like to see the voishldz and description especially the boulevard side of the arena month symmetric's say the streets the blue greenway i'd like to see that because that will give people a better opportunity to comment whether or not they think the orientation of that side of the arena works for the greenway and where people are going to jump on and off not sure that rises to the level of something that needs to be called out in the environmental review report thank you very much >> commissioner hillis. >> thanks very much i agree with my fellow commissioners said but i think we agree that mission bay south needs help and can have a campus feel to it so i think it has a great potential of doing that i'm happy to walk through the ground floor it's

>> that's a really excellent question. i think part of it is the martyr status. that think think by supporting people who are criticized in the mainstream media, even if they're legitimately criticized for saying stupid things wrong things, that this is somehow

the visibility is excellent now. the wind chill is 17. and that's going to seem like a picnic 24 hours from now. temperatures in the teens to the low 20s. which is plenty cold. but look at what's going to happen as we go into tonight and tomorrow. how it's going to feel to your exposed skin. so tonight, again feeling like the teens. by tomorrow morning's rush feeling like the teens, but allentown, eight. pretty cold right? go outside some icy spots as well. and during the day, it doesn't really warm up. the wind chill, the feels like temperature, pretty much the same as we go into the early afternoon. and by dinnertime tomorrow, look at this it's below zero across a good bit of the area, the way it's going to feel. and of course the poconos is just out of hand. 21 below by 10:00 tomorrow night. five below in philly. ten below in pottstown. 11 below in allentown. eight below in mount holly. even dover, one below zero. through the night tomorrow night, all night tomorrow night, into thursday morning below zero wind chills in a good portion

three principles that guide us in this work are engage, explore, excel. under engagement we want instruction to be captivating so our students and are focused during the learning process. to do that we are using digital tools and digital content to increase student engagement. we have a distributive leadership theory. under that theory, i am not the sole owner of the power in the school, it is distributed amongst my administrative staff and my teacher leaders as well as my teachers and ultimately our students and families so decisions are made collectively for our school at multiple levels where stake holders are invested. we have built into the schedule collaboration for teacher teams, emphasizing strong relationships between teachers, between students and students, we will have smaller class sizes, wrap around support services and exciting extended learning opportunities meaning after school programming and summer school planning. for explore we are strongly implementing the common core state standards through the core curriculum of san francisco unifie

because of the senseless violence [ inaudible ] -- so our counterterrorism cooperation with france is excellent. we will provide them with every bit of assistance that we can going forward. i think it's going to be important for us to make sure that we recognize these kinds of attacks that happen everywhere in the world. and it's one of the things i'll be discussing with secretary kerry today. to remain individual atlanta, not just with respect to americans living in paris but americans living in europe and in other parts of the world. to hunt down and bring the perpetrators of this specific act [ inaudible ] -- in the end,

before 80 odd points they've out performed for 5 years bye 90 basis points so the performance is excellent historically i understand the issue in terms of the turnover but in terms of the trembles i don't see it usually. >> ask. >> you want. >> go ahead. >> there's no preconception we'll terminate the managers it they meet the requirements and qualifications alleys may end up being retained and so we expect them to be part of the process and there's no expectation or no preconception that any of them will be termed we wanted to look at other alternatives. >> i'll talk about the allocation the consensus among the staff and i believe the board reduce the fixed income from 25 percent of assets to 15 percent wrong number $2 billion so, so if we're going to be over that time local government dating 023 builds in bond how to hire a manager particularly we'll belogically the portfolio assets so we'll might hire a manager for example but fixed income will be a source of capital i'll vote no on the motion i suggest 0 recuse use those managers as a source of capital last time we raised the staff too

the communists also hated excellence and success. they wanted everyone to be equally poor because it was easier to control people that way. what they were doing, they were taking away people's dignity because the message was, you are not good enough to take care of yourself. i have to do it for you. but here, to the under generation, i'd like to emphasize the fact that nobody in this world can take care of you better than your self. you have the power to not give it away to anybody, no matter what they promise you. one of the dreams that i had when all was lost, we thought even forgotten by god at times was, i had the picture of the american flag, a symbol of freedom. i would take it out and stare at it and dream of america and dream what it was like to be free, to need a hamburger or cheesecake or to walk in central park. i got caught in class and the teacher tried to take the flag away from the. i did not surrender it in spite of all the pressures and threats. i was ready to die because life had no meaning without freedom but i cou

school it will have an excellent opportunity for students we courage i to submit an application lyle i'm to thank the commissioners and staff that worked and walked and spoke and had interactions with our community this saturday thank you very, very much i'd like to annunciation as our students start the second semester they'll take the assessments there are a lot of communication what the assessments mean one the questions is well, can you choose to not have the district participate in taking the assessments those are assessments required by the state of california for all students so we don't have the choice of saying we president obama out but we know our teachers area administrators are doing all they can to prepare our students to be successful in their assessments which will assess their proficiency those have taken on computer by our students in grades 3 through 8 and 11 including the video and audio as well as provisions for student needs for the common core state standards and assess newer learning was students could be asked to select all answers or students maybe asked in

their basic approach on intelligence is the excellence was wrong. who knew? but, in fact, they knew. they knew that they were distorting the intelligence. george tenet, who probably distorted things more than anybody in '02 wrote the best memoir. he wrote a memoir that i think historians will look to for the truth of what happened and he said that the white paper, for example, was a major error and had been far too aer is tiff about -- assertive about weapons of mass destruction. and colin powell also has come clean and said it was a blot on his record. you'll recall his february 5th, '03, presentation to the united nations which was powerful, masterful and, of course, wrong. and he admits that now, and he says it's, you know, the biggest mistake he ever made. i've always thought and still think that he was the best of all of the folks that served president bush a truly remarkable american. so the question -- what are the lessons of all of this? how do we prevent this from happening again? and i believe that the intelligence laws now should be changed to mand

we had excellent honest coverage of the situation. mr.nt someone of stature, and did not. we hammered him on that. the fact that he himself did not go is not central to the issue. moving an american president abroad that quickly not easy. as always we're fair and accurate in our presentation. lloyd from honolulu it's not that liberals blame the americans for inflaming jihadists, they blame president bush for starting two wars that got us nowhere and actually made things worse. i can no longer bear to watch waters. the people he interviews are ignorant. the numbers are growing. we are doomed. we love watching jesse. he looked great on new year's eve and is secure enough to have his own style. please give him more respect o'reilly. i will try. to give waters more respect mary. but it isn't easy with that collar up, and the puffy scarf. denver, colorado bill couldn't watch the tip of the day on dish tv because i have dish tv and they don't have fnc any longer. on billo'reilly.com, i watched it there. please work it out, people. i'm with you,

moving forward, i think as john alluded, we have been making i think excellent progress getting this project ready for your approval. we have had actually excellent discussions with the state lands commission staff just last week in which they seemed very enthusiastic about the project, about the uses, about the public access elements and the lease terms that were discussed with them. we've had multiple meetings with bcdc staff to develop that public access plan that you see and we believe that they are prepared to recommend that that go forward. we are working through the ceqa review that really is based on historic resource he evaluation report and we are trying to finalize the lease terms with your very hard working staff. once we get the lease approved, which we would hope including the board of supervisors will be early in 2015, we will start to work on pulling our permits. once we pull our construction permits, the construction period for those initial improvements is about six months. so, i thank you very much for listening and we are very happy to tell you anything in additio

personally hawaii no, sir had his usual high standards, still excellent by most players' standards, butelow the level he has been at in previous years. but i think that counted against him. >> we are going try as france remains on high alert. jewish schoolchildren waited with police posted outside to protect them while politicians and intelligence agencies have been trying to answer tough questions about how three terrorists known to police were able to
