>> i want to say thank you for being here. i am humble, i am thankful for chairman cummings for giving me the opportunity to tell my truth and i helped that as mr. cummings said, it helps to heal america. i thank you and have a good day. two years ago, i said that when hillary clinton and donald trump were running against each other, i said that this is not about hillary. and this is not about donald trump. this was a fight for the soul of our democracy. that statement is truer now than it was then. today i think was a very important day. i tell my staff that 200 years from now people will be reading about this moment. so i will say to you, the press, get it right. we have a situation where we have strayed so far away from normal in our country, and we have got to get back to center. and i think today was at least an opportunity to do that. a lot of people, we got a lot of criticism, as you could hear, about michael cohen coming before our committee. but just think about what we are dealing with. we have rosenstein, who said th

and so what i want to. impart to you is that our relationship has grown not just from work here at this property but also at robert be pits oh it's been quite a journey and i want to. you know embrace lisa. applause i also want to acknowledge some of the ground troops that have made this project a success. in particular with respect to engaging the residents. i want to acknowledge the f our each team some who have moved on and some who are new to the property but as was noted earlier by remote towns and dani robertson robin jackson were very essential again in an enabling us to meet the residents where they are and to help them grow and embrace. change because this is a big change also i want to acknowledge alonzo tour is and the maintenance team their work is largely unseen until you actually come back to the property after they have made their mark it's really a statement to their commitment to this property i want to thank our relocation specialists that woman has had the probably most arduous task of al

i want to say thank you. [applause] many of the programs that were promised to us, actually came through, and it is a great opportunity because i have been able to make a career for myself , and provide for my son, and be an example to so many people in the neighborhood that have given the opportunity, you can take advantage of these things, and do great things. thank you guys for that opportunity. [applause] >> the hunter's view communities filled with talented, ambitious people. sometimes we just need the opportunity to show just that. during our transition, we have seen some bad days, lost a lot of people, but we still stand under better conditions. we still press on and are very proud to continue to build our community. we can all live together in, help this community flourish for our children and the youth following us. i thank you for your time, and all the programs such as mayor breed's intern program for our youth, giving them dreams beyond their imagination. it is a great thing. thank you and welcome

what i want more than anything else is -- i did not want to create a museum. did not want to just create a place that had good collections or did good exhibitions. what i wanted was a place that would make america better. a place that would force america to confront what it does not want to confront, but help america remember not what it but whato remember it needed to remember. i think if we can use this museum to help frame the challenges of race today, then that is why we are there. i have a limited interest in just saying, "isn't it interesting to understand chuck berry?" but i have a great interest in saying "what does urbanization tell us about the creation of culture? what does music tell us about the opportunity to integrate?" i want to look at the bigger questions, which will help make the country better. mr. grumet: i have a lot of questions. in the spirit of democracy, i am going to open it up a little bit. mr. bunch: you made a mistake. museum directors are not democratic. we are autocratic. [laughter] mr. grumet: let me stop for a mr. grumet: let

i just want to thank you for doing that. i have seen you do it first hand you have done it when nobody was watching. you do it every time. i want to commend you for representing the best of nonviolence and peacemaking, and to all the mothers who do it alongside you as well. congratulations. [applause] >> supervisor watson? >> thank you. my colleagues have definitely said mostly everything i want to say, but i also just wanted to add that not only did you start this work and turn a tragedy into triumph, but you've done it for years, and you have done it citywide and you have done it across the state, and you have done it at the policy level, the grassroots level across this country, because you know that losing anyone from violence is something we want to eliminate and stop. i want you to know how much we appreciate your work on a consistent basis. i don't get to tell you that all the time because we are always scrambling, but just know that your work is an inspiration to all of us, and i thank you for stepping it up and doing

i want to read. this chapter. has anyone read the book already? okay. this is the first time i have read this aloud but this is a chapter, a very low moment in my life, chapter title solitary. i had been in tough places before. that basement, tied to a chair, drug dealers talking about dumping my body. shootouts and arguments, raping and beating of my mother, the murder of my cousin eric, cutting myself with staples. my grandfather's cancer. my mother's cruel words but nothing was like sitting in solitary confinement carrying that weight. the state gave me a death sentence, the slow kind, that death all the same. they put me in a room for months alone, nothing to do but think about it. there was no human contact. the guards were for bidden to talk to or touch us. i couldn't see or hear other inmates. one exercise a day in a walled off courtyard by myself. it was basically a baker sale but at least i could see the sky. there were no windows in my cell, i saw nothing. 23 hours a day of walls. i counted the concrete blocks, studied the ceiling, rubbed the c

if my money's tied to it, i want to make the most money for community. his is not fun for me, but you know what's gonna be fun? when i get a big check. is taylor actually telling me that he wants me just to abandon the business because the results don't meet his expectations? part of the reason that i even brought them in is to super-charge these start-ups. and instead of him getting engaged and giving ideas, he's basically trying to tear it down and close up shop. do you guys want to take everkin out of the community? travis: i want to try and make it work, like the cellphone case wardrobe. juli: no. brad: i'm willing to give it a try. juli: meaning, no, i don't want it out. taylor: yes. parker: yes. lemonis: i'm not sure if taylor and parker actually grasp the concept of community. it's starting to become apparent to me that what they're really focused on is just making money the easy way. taylor: you feel better now. lemonis: we know you want to get rid of cellphone cases. the good news is there's five of you and not just you. ♪ i'm paying taylor and p

i want, like, i don't, do i want to go to africa? i don't know. i've never been on a plane, and this was, like, when ebola was out, and i go what do i need to do? he's like oh, you have to write an essay. so i asked my mom, and she was, like, no. so i told him, my mom said no. so he said talk to her and all of this. long story short, i ended up going. i didn't think it would be what it was, but it was actually a great experience for me. i grew up privileged but i didn't have the best childhood, and i've been knowing j.j. since i was seven going to the club as a kid, and he watched me grow from a kid till now standing in front of you guys. and when i went, it was more so like a learning experience for me, an eye opener in a lot of ways. when i came back, i was more vigilant of my every day life, and just even the way i treat people, walking down the street because the love that they have out there was just so different from home, and i wanted to bring that back and share it with my community. and going back as a chaperone, i was like -- he asked me

i want to add one other thing. en i got on this board, one of the first because i got, and i didn't really have a relationship with him, was from him. i have to say, out of many of the people that i've worked with in the city, boy, did jeff adachi have class. he was full of class. he invited me out for breakfast, he gave me an entire tour, personally, that took two hours out of his day, of his entire team, walking around from office to office, and sat me down and talked about the agenda and what he was about, and what he wanted to do. he did have a budget request ultimately at the end, and i was okay, because it was for undocumented people. it was for adding additional staff, but that is his job. he was really good at it. i have nothing but respect and appreciation for his style and for the amount of class that he carried, in the way he carried himself. may he rest in peace, and my condolences to his family, to his colleagues, and everyone that considered themselves a friend of jeff adachi. >> thank you for sharing

i want to say 2017. i don't want to answer incorrectly. 2017. >> it is for a term of years, annual renewal. >> initial term and options to extend. >> who is that worth on an annual basis. >>> we have never changed the price in seven years. i owe it to my partners to note that. maybe i shouldn't have. moving on. it is 2 $76,000 a year and as i said that is the price since its inception. >> thank you for not raising it. chair mar, do you have questions? >> chair mar: thank you. this is very helpful for me inning how this all works as far as our city weighing in on important state legislation and the role that you play. i have a few questions more for my understanding. i want to understand the kind of work that happens conveying our position as the city and county of san francisco on a specific bill. for example, at our board meeting a couple weeks ago, the board of supervisors adopted a resolution in support of senate bill 233 by senator wiener creating stronger protections for sex workers when reporting a

lemonis: what i want to do is i actually want to try it. tony: yeah, sure. have some gloves for you. lemonis: walk me through the board and how it works. tony: sure. so, the first step is choosing your size. lemonis: okay. then we go to choose our flavor. which one is the most popular? tony: yeti tracks and green tea are our two most popular flavors. lemonis: what is in yeti tracks? tony: yeti tracks is the blueberries and oreos. lemonis: oreos and blueberries, that's interesting. carolyn: hi. tony: this is carolyn. this is one of our other gms. lemonis: oh, how are you? carolyn: hi. lemonis: nice to meet you. the two of you oversee the four stores? tony: yep. lemonis: okay, so you're not just here? ovie: i'm pretty much at all the stores every day. i also do maintenance work. there are things that i'm not really good at that tony's good at. tony is more familiar with orders and scheduling as well. lemonis: okay. so, we're going to make three sizes and three flavors. tony: all of our shaved cream is made into these blocks. lemonis: this is actually ice cream?

i just wanted to give an opportunity for minute who wants to say something, but i just wanted to kick it off by saying that i think it was a couple years ago when i first came onto the council, donna was one of the first people that i spoke to, and i went to my interview back in -- i think it was january -- well, it was a couple years ago, and saw donna in the office on disability. i've seen donna at other meetings. she's active in the community. she's been to meeting with the california council of the blind in san francisco. she's very thoughtful, and that's the thing that i'll always remember about her. left the meeting at the end, and she assisted me, you know, down stairs to get a cab out on market street. could have done all that on my own, but donna was there in the moment of need and gave me some direction on how to do it in that place. so i really want to thank you, donna, for all the work you've done and for being as thoughtful and understanding as -- as you've been. and that's what i have to say. >> jim, do you want to invite donna up? >> oh, yes, donna, i do want to invite

i want to thank san francisco government t.v. media services for sharing this meeting with the public. we will start with a roll call. [roll call] >> i think we should note that commissioner thomas is running late and commissioner faust on has been excused

i want to thank the witnesses. i also want to thank the ranking member for his efforts on this issue. it's a little hard to sit here having spent hours in state and local government in california on this issue. there's plenty of evidence based research about the investments we need to make in this country to stop this crisis. that's what this hearing is about, mr. carroll, is us getting performance standards from my perspective that are required by statute from you so we can measure it. i've heard people from the previous administration sit here and if members remember issues of the chemical safety board and the previous administration said they had the fire in the belly. but if we can't manage your success, then you shouldn't be in that position. so far this administration by almost any standard has not managed well. so in terms of the legislation, the statute that mr. cummings referred to, hr 5925, the coordinated response through interagency strategy and information sharing act, the crisis act, along with the sup

>> i don't want to seem evasive. i understand what this line of questioning's for, but we're starting to get into investigative leads that we might get into in any investigative case. so to start announcing what i can and can't do -- >> commissioner dejesus: i don't want to get into that. i just want to know do with he have any safeguards in the department to prevent people from turning it over to wrong people in the department or chain of command. >> commissioner dejesus: now if these reports are released improperly, are there other -- i assume 2.0 would come into play, if somebody violated these rules -- the general rules of conduct, if those are have a lated, then you're saying that officers -- whoever uses it, i don't know -- they could be punished. >> if there was a burglary, and the report divulges confidential information. >> commissioner dejesus: and automatic officers know the general -- all officers know the general order. i think you're talking about section 48, compromise in an investigation, section 49, d

becky: i don't want to sell. lemonis: do you want to sell it? n: i really don't, but i cannot continue for her to control my money. lemonis: how does she control your money? john: she has the ultimate shareholder voting majority. lemonis: how does that work? john: because she's a director on that qualified pension plan. my mistake. becky: all i did was sign. john: she could fire me as ceo and president if there was a shareholders' meeting. lemonis: do you understand what happened? amber: no, not really. lemonis: okay, stop. so we've established the way the money came into the company. but becky was listed as a director of that 401(k) plan. and when the plan ended up being an equity investor in the business, she ended up actually having the voting rights of his plan and his money. it would be like me having voting rights over your business. i didn't pay for it, and you didn't agree to it. amber: right. lemonis: you guys made this investment together. you're either gonna go forward together or you're gonna burn together. i want to do business with

so i want to clarify this, and i think that's the whole point of this meeting. any time one of my selself or colleagues tries to get into this subject matter, you talk to anyone in the city and you will hear a completely different story and emphasis. that's why i appreciate my colleague, supervisor stefani, for calling this hearing. i feel it's incredibly needed, and i don't feel like we have a system that makes sense. so i heard from mr. pickens that everyone is assessed at the task level, and then, i hear from you that that is not the case. so you finally agree after many outreach attempts by the d.p.a. and hot teams engagement specialists. and i'd love to hear how they work together, but that's a whole other story -- that the person finally agreed to be assessed at t.a.p. and a nurse or a licensed clinical social worker has to make an assessment about whether the primary sort of need for this individual is a mental health disease or it's a substance abuse disease. and then -- and then, if it's substance abuse, it's healthright 360, but for mental health, wher

i want too err -- to hear about deficits and debt. mr. mnuchin: first of all, i think i can see the chart. although it's a little bit far. first, let me just comment, i do think on a bipartisan basis this is something that people should be looking at. so i appreciate your concerns. as debt as a percent of g.d.p., and what we look at the debt over time. i would just comment on a couple of things. first of all, you see on the upper part of the chart where the deficit is a percent of g.d.p., if i can see this as kind of in the 7%, 8%, 9%, 10% type of range which is quite concerning. i would also highlight in 2017 a major reason for the deficit in 2017 was the fact that congress passed a very large spending increase, which i think, as you know, the president felt like we needed to make an investment in military and the democrats required us to have a big increase in nonmilitary spending. but really the tax bill has really not had a material impact on these numbers on the chart. as i said, it will over the next 10 years, one way or another. but

mark: i want you to do that because you are better at it than i am. heidi: i just don't want to fail. lemonis: you to fail, the business to fail, the family to fail? heidi: all of the above. lemonis: you feel that pressure on your shoulders? heidi: yeah. ♪ lemonis: coming up... mark: i did get a label to go over the top of the dot-net. lemonis: but it's not done. mark: it's on my list. lemonis: bull[bleep] mark. you should have just done it, though. it's like you just didn't put the frosting on the cake. lemonis: what is it that you're worried about? heidi: i just don't want to fail. lemonis: you feel that pressure on your shoulders? heidi: yeah. i don't know. ♪ lemonis: have i made you feel that way? heidi: no. lemonis: so then why? tell me. heidi: because i have them. emily: it's okay, mom. it's cool. lemonis: your mom is wicked smart, but she doesn't feel like she can unleash it because she's too -- she's worried. hunter: come here. emily: hello, there, hunter. hunter: come over here, you bugger. emily: [ laughs ] it's all good. kissies. mark: you

i do want to say a few things first. i know that powerpoint presentations are generally pretty lame. but i didn't want to do a panel because we've done a few of those already. they let me do whatever i wanted. so here we go. i promise you that during this presentation you'll laugh at least once and you'll learn two things. i do find it's ironic that i run a pro transparency group and i'm not good at technology. you'll again bear with me. finally, i know that i'm standing here as a humble non-profit employee, but i too was once a tv news producer at a local station in florida trying to get information from officials. for a time i was in charge of the freedom of information law research and responses. i hope we can relate on some level. today on national foia day when the government celebrates by redacting eight whole pages, kind of like the hanukkah miracle, i want to -- some people get psyched for foia day. since this is the first slide that's been up here the whole time, can the freedom of information act bring more suns

first of all, i want to ask you this. i am assuming that you agree that title ix schools are required to respond to acts of sexual violence that impact students' access to education. would you agree with that? secretary devos: i would, congresswoman. but let me just say i have said before and i wanted to emphasize again that one act of sexual violence is one too many. and one student that does not have due process is one too many. ms. frankel: if you could just to reclaim my time. if we have time, you can talk about the perpetrators and so forth. do you agree that in practice many schools are failing to protect victims or hold the perpetrator accountable? secretary devos: what i know is i have heard from students and i have heard from institutional representatives that the framework that they have had to operate under has not worked for too many students. which is precisely why we're in the process of negotiating rule making. ms. frankel: i want to find some things we can agree on. then we can disagree. i am assuming you w

i just want to thank you, mayor, for being our mayor. there were several times in the tough talks we've had over london's career, when she ran for supervisor, i actually begged her not to do it. i said, you have so much promise, you have so much potential, the world is your oyster. do not waste your life's energy on the mud puddle of city politics. and she said, that's my seat, anne-marie, and i'm going to take it. and i said, okay, kid, i'm with you all the way. and i'm glad she didn't listen to my advice. and i look very much forward to the great things she is going to do for our city. thank you.

i wanted i want to stress an important issue isto the up together with latvia is a country in europe with the highest number of immigrant people overall we have once third time me. it's one third one third is not a stone years now this is the facts you particularly noticeable. nope i said it in twenty thirteen if you're black go back and i want to stone me and to be a white country these were your words in turkey thirteen television talk show here . but i we were roundly condemned by other politicians including the human rights group here in parliament but eighty percent of stern and we had a there was apologists own eighty percent of its tone and agreed with that statement so take it as it is conveyed to present the stoneman you would have been but you would have won the elections you don't win the elections you came first we did very well but i want to us about the status of this visit. as of what i please . we will get to the racism issue but this was back when i wasn't a politician in an elected office i was a talking head. commentator show you have sold your views have you know

more democracy i want to go around threatening people that you disagree with i want to through time as it is really think that. churches should be able to break laws and make laws that they like then we have a very different opinion what the democracy your blinds were condemned by the chief justice of the supreme court and the president both condemned your statement here you remove the march liberals you it doesn't matter does or doesn't but of course it does and liberal arts are mostly wrong though because they let you all know that magically bush ition they like this is situation but their decision was a political decision judges should not be making laws this is breaking the separation of powers they are absolute they are a disgrace to the office and you didn't mind the fact they were women this world is who you said i want a threat to be heard from this rostrum i want their heads to roll because it cannot be that some women this is very dismissive of women is that some women come together and just change dystonia northwood you've reacted differently the judges have

i want to be long utilities. >> mike, you're trading utilities? >> yeah. i mean this is an interesting situation that we have here because obviously one of the things we worry about when we're long equities, one of them is valuation. on the valuation front it doesn't seem quite as compelling as a group we're looking at a space probably trading a little over 20 times earnings but then you also have to put that into context. what we see right now, for example, the spread between high-yield bonds, which is another source of yield and corporates is actually very, very narrow. what that tells us is that there's really a significant chase on for yield in this environment. as a basket of equities, this yields well over 3% in terms of their dividends. when you think about it in that context, you can see why people might look into it obviously if we're going to have weakness in equities generally, this is a safe haven so that makes utilities set up well compared to the rest of the market when we look at it from an options perspective, the nice thing about utilities,

and i wanted to acknowledge the fire commission and the panel that worked to select our new fire chief. we both guarantee, chief nicholson and i, a very smooth transition. i'm here working and i'll finish strong. i know nothing different. the next five to se six weeks will be a period of transition. chief nicholson and i will be working shoulder to shoulder to make sure this city is protected and safe. and that's what we commit to, and that's what the city deserves. thank you very much. and also to the command staff, everybody stand up that is here, that actually works in the fire department. tom sherman, olivia -- this is part of the team. thank you very much. deputy chief gonzales over there. and thank you to chief scott and sheriff hennessey and other department heads that are here as well. good morning, and have a great day. >> thank you, chief. and the folks who actually, again, did a lot of the heavy lifting, with the countless numbers of interviews was our fire commission, starting with president king cleveland -- when king cleveland served as president, and steve nicoshio carry

women's equality i want something that is much bigger than women's equality i want the destruction of patriarchy now this is not the destruction of men because patriarchy is not men patriarchy it are the systems and institutions around the world which every day privilege male dominance so this is something i wanted to focus on every day and i wanted to say i around the world we must all be free of patriarchy every day now we often talk about the actions that women need to take in the fight for women's rights what about men what about me what do we need to do. well i think that men need to recognize that patriarchy hurts them too because patriarchy has given us social constructs it socializes us in a very particular way in being men and women and this is why i said women go the non-binary people because we are recognizing more and more the ways that petri arche hurt not just women and girls and not just men who don't obey the socialization of patriarchy but it also hurts trans women trans girls trans men and

i wanted to ask about the health impact. i heard from a woman, a military family, who lived in housing in new london at the sub base, there, from april 2014 to august 2018, she explained that the maintenance officer was responsible, responsive to some of the maintenance request, like clogs drains, when she reported mold, in the bathtub, they were advised to keep washing and cleaning the mold, after every shower. previous child caught pneumonia, and shortly afterwards suffered a stroke, only a week before her first birthday, she acknowledges she will never be able to determine whether the stroke was caused by the mold, in the apartment, but i'm asking, now, about the health effects, on children, and whether you have been in touch with the va, because some of these individuals may no longer be involved in active military service, to determine whether these environmental hazards and toxic substances encountered during military service can be compensable and treatable under the va health plan. i will go down the line again beginn

i want to thank you for taking on this issue. i've looked at this many years and it's exciting to see it to move to public health where i believed for a long time it belonged. i was going say more about this but we talked about a discussion in the last haith commission meeting about data. one of the things that struck me is in all the years we talked about jail overcrowding, data always comes up as a reason we're unable to move forward. i don't think that's going to happen this time and i don't want to minimize the significance of good data but in looking at this from a public health perspective we can't let the data slow us down. secondly, there's a new book that's come out written by the director of the richter's island health service and by san francisco is by no means at all -- [indiscernible] there is one commonality the author raises and that's jail confers simply by virtual being in custody confers new public health risks. the sooner we move the discussion about incarceration into the public health venue, the sooner we'll h

i first want to note, i know a couple of people said this, but for people watching this at home, everyone going to come back, but everyone representing the cops, they're gone. they don't want to hear. they saw our signs but we're not supposed to have signs in the hearing. they didn't want to hear from us. i wanted to note that again. i definitely support the recommendations of the coh. i think that -- i also want to clear, i see looking at lines, response to homelessness in extreme weather. i hope what comes across is not a demand to stop the sweeps when it's raining and cold, but to actually stop the sweeps. every night, it doesn't matter how cold it is or if there is smoke. i also wanted to follow up on the pedestrian advocate that was here and was talking about the supposed excuse that we have to clear the tents because they're blocking the sidewalk. they're not. usually they're placed in such a way to get around them, a wheelchair. but what is blocking the sidewalks is the fences that dpw puts up after they put someone away. it's a pre-emptive sweep. they just put up these fences and

i want to say a couple of theirs. one, i think i in my district we need to look at repaving crosswalks they are uneven with huge potholes. if they happen to fall in the crosswalk they will not make it across the crosswalk and be flat on the ground, that is very dangerous for the seniors. 18th and california we don't need the four-way stop we need a stoplight. there are only stop signs. my husband was a san francisco police officer for 35 years. the last nine years he was in a traffic unit riding a solo motorcycle giving out tickets. he could give them out again and again repeatedly because people do not stop for three seconds at the stop sign. we know we have had a fatality at 33rd and cab brill io in broad daylight. a good friend of ours died. it was a big loss to the community also. when i think about a potential traffic island, it is not enough between this area of park and 25th people pick up speed. it is flat. people do not stop at stop signs for the full three second goes to slow it down. then to the next thing.

and i want to thank the group that's have been a part of the process, and i also want to express my gratitude to our friends in the labor community, including jobs for the justice, seiu 1021 and others. san francisco has long been a leader on environmental issues and we should all be grateful for the tremendously talented staff in our department of the environment. this resolution seeks to build on and amplify their efforts and i want to thank them for moving it forward as well as the various departments and city staff that we will be working with. i want to thank kyle in my office who has done all of this work herding cats, and thank you, kyle for that. with that, i have a number of folks from different department that that would like to speak, but let's start with director raphael. >> thank you, supervisor mandelman. the resolution before you is not a surprise. it's very much about pace and scope. that's what it's calling us, pick up the pace, broaden the scope. we're already working on climate action. what do we need to be doing to ensure our planet survives? so clearly, climate change is

here is the support i want to make. i am absolutely adamantly opposed to the recreational use of marijuana. currently, i am the only pharmacist serving in congress and a will tell you, i consider it to be nothing more than a gateway drug. if that offends you, that is something you have to deal with. right now, marijuana is a schedule one drug. that means that for investigational use only. it cannot have research done on a. the dea is failing the american public your by not letting research take place on marijuana. i would hope that madd would address that. we had an attorney general who was going to address this, was going to say that we have a federal law that prohibits marijuana use get we have states going out, and legalizing the recreational use of marijuana but we narrowed that and that attorney general is gone so it is not being addressed. this is something that needs to be addressed by the dea. currently, i am writing an op- ed right now in conjunction with one of my democratic colleagues representing earl blument

i want to start with one that picks up on several questions. the question going back to this issue of what is the purpose of bail. so that, therefore, i think alex makes a really, really important point is traditionally public safety has been something that's considered in the pretrial process and how do we weigh that in looking at a macro level but recognizing people will do with individual cases. so what is the role of bail in the context of public safety? in other words, is it a factor? a lot of folks are not dangerous. it's not an absolute around detention but that's also a conversation. where do you see that fitting in? >> a couple points to make. the first is we should remember bail is not the only choice. roughly 6% or so of people are just held. like the judge said, you shouldn't walk the streets. that's an option that judges have. there's something very odd about using bail them as we to keep some people in because what it does is it says i'm going to set a bail amount i think maybe you won't make but if you're rich enough to make it or

she said no, i want you to go with me. and then, the very next day that i went to the session, i notice this unit at 616 harrison became available, b.m.i. i was like wow, this could potentially work. housing purchases through the b.m.r. program with the sf mayor's office of housing, they are all lotteries, and for this one, i did win the lottery. there were three people that applied, and they pulled my number first. i won, despite the luck i'd had with the program in the last couple years. things are finally breaking my way. when i first saw the unit, even though i knew it was less than ideal conditions, and it was very junky, i could see what this place could be. it's slowly beginning to feel like home. i can definitely -- you know, once i got it painted and slowly getting my custom furniture to fit this unit because it's a specialized unit, and all the units are microinterms of being very small. this unit in terms of adaptive, in terms of having a murphy bed, using the walls and ceiling, getting as much space as i can. it
