at the same token, almost all americans have been to our capitol city, americans love the capitol city. it is spacious boulevard stand memorials and monuments, the majestic government buildings, the tree-lined mall, very few americans know the story about the capitol city of how it came to be an almost didn't come to be and that's why were here today to talk about it. so, our story begins the backdrop for our story begins in newburgh, new york. and this is along the edge of the hudson and at the end of the revolutionary war. not too far today from fdr's high court, and was quite if anybody has been there. so for many battles, the revolutionary war is the battle of yorktown which is september and october of 1781. after yorktown, that would be the last major battle of the war, and after yorktown, for about two years there was what we could call the cold war. the british hunkered down in new york city, george washington and the americans went up the river to newburgh as you see right here in my side and for almost two years, they hunkered down there in this cold war. it would be washingto

ultimately the city was sued and the case was called bolden versus the city of mobile. it goes all the way to the supreme court. the supreme court looked at it, judge stewart said not for sure we want to act on this. they sent it to the lower court. the lower court sent it back to mobile and it went to the capitol as the zoghby marietta act. and ultimately it came back for the citizens to vote on it. and the citizens voted on it and it was approved. when it was approved, it split the city up into seven districts, three of them which were majority african-american. so we've had an african-american representative at the table since 1984. and we've also had an african-american mayor. so now those individuals represent their district. and each district currently getting $3 million per district. if they don't spend that money like the constituents want, obviously they vote someone else in. but at least we're sitting at the table now when the decisions are made and when the money is allocated, which means it can be spent in their communities as opposed to other areas of the ci

laterwe not to enter our fight inside the city. firm about other reports but a bbc colleague in kabul was at a government office a few minutes ago and was asked to leave and the office was closed and they were asked to evacuate and some shops in certain localities in kabul were closed down and he told me there is a sense of panic and fear. a lot of people are trying to get visas and passports because people want to leave and are not sure what will happen if and when the taliban take over the city. the government is asking people to remain calm and they are taking measures as many modern countries are evacuating and the us has brought on trips to evacuate their embassy staff and other nations. are you surprised that the taliban have got this close? —— they have brought in troops. are you surprised they would do this when the evacuation has not been completed? there have been a number of supplies is in the last ten days and no one expected them to control 26 of 27 provincial capitals in a matter of days and many provinces surrendered

ultimately the city is alive again and it feels so good. so what is the next step. there are businesses out here who just need a little bit to get over that hump. they have back rent they owe, they have employees they owe, they have pg&e they need to pay, they have a water system or they may need to remodel. there are expenses and in order to ensure every is providing grants is also critical to making sure we give folks just a little bit of that boost in order to ensure their success and today, i'm excited we are giving $10,000 grants to four anchor businesses of this community.

the city could fund all or a portion of the costs. there's another approach. and that would result in substantial city costs but could be covered potentially by bonds and phasing the initiatives. so over time the changes would be made but not necessarily all at once to smooth out this cost. or it could be combined with rebates and incentives and a mix of the tools available to reduce the hardship on any one party. in this table we show the layout, impacts of different approaches. one is already in place in san francisco. the electrical appliance requirement for all new construction, shown in the third row here. that will have an impact that will increase and help with this shift in cost advantages that i mentioned from natural gas to electricity. but the row in green is the retrofitting of all residents. that is the biggest impact. we are talking about 240,000 housing units with some fuelled by gas if not all. the costs are highest and that's the biggest pay off in terms of reusing greenhouse gas emissions. and again, with the buildings being about a fourth of

transportation in the city has changed. we seen new technologies, we've seen congestion as a result of some of those technologies. we've been looking at the safety of our streets. we've been looking at the next generation of transportation and public transportation improvements such as muni forward, our next generation of customer information system and updating our core infrastructure such as the training control system. while this vision of what we have for our system has changed and the values have changed, we have not changed how we fund the transportation system here in san francisco. that is not just true here in san francisco. it's true to the state of california and it's definitely true at the federal level. this issue is not a new one. there are some things that we can do now to change that dynamic. what we did was, we looked back in time, back in 2009, i'll talk a little bit about that. we charted out the future what at least our financial future looks like if we want to get to the vision that we're talking about h

the taliban ars are not in the city. it does sound likely they are looking at some sort of negotiations here to prevent a taliban onslaught into kabul. officials went onto say, our aim is to avoid harm to the people of kabul. our aim is to make sure there is no violence. i have to tell you of the insurg insurgency stacked up in kabul, the only way to be achieved, this goes back to the broader question of where they want to go and what they want to do. the u.s. rested on this and quite happy ily being need of t palace. it will be problematic for them. inevitably, these negotiations given happening with the threat of reports, reports of many more provinces and cities falling as well. some troubling reports unconfirmed but adding to the sense of panicking here. it may not be as secure at this point. that sense of momentum is building and you do run the risk at some point in the next hour or so that president ghani has to reconsider his decision to allow this transitional moment. it is just so crammed of individuals and start

he says the loss of 2 cities to the taliban is a significant blow to the afghan government. these cities aren't very large cities . they are conventional capitals, but the populations aren't very big. but they do represent 100 a hundreds of millions of dollars in potential revenue to the off on government, you know, in a landlocked country where trade accounts, trade revenue accounts for the majority of revenue, or perhaps at least half of revenue coming in to the state. so it's essentially cutting off the african government from one of its primary revenue sources. and it also has the secondary effect of forcing afghanistan's neighbors to engage directly with the taliban at these border crossings. which of course, gives the talib on a certain amount of legitimacy. i think the afghan government can turn the tide, but it needs to alter its, its military strategy. it's over reliant on the commandos which they've been flying over around the country from city to city. they need to reorganize their military strategy and try to take the fight to the tall bottom through summer and fa

it's the city contributing to helping make sure these venues are around, to continue to be part of thecovery for our city. >> when you think about the venues for events in the city, we're talking about all of them. some have been able to come back adaptively over the last year and have been able to be shape shifters in this pandemic, and that's exciting to see, but i'm really looking forward to the day when events and venues can reopen and help drive the recovery here in san francisco. >> they have done a study that says for every dollar of ticket sales done in this city, $12 goes to neighboring businesses. from all of our vendors to the restaurants that are next to our ven sues and just so many other things that you can think of, all of which have been so negatively affected by covid. for this industry to fail is unthinkable on so many levels. it's unheard of, like, san francisco without its music scene would be a terribly dismal place. >> i don't know that this needs to be arrest -- that there needs to be art welfare for artists. we just need to live and pay for our food, and things

in this case, higher rates in the southeastern part of the city. ap, the higher the concentration in the city. so you see mission, tenderloin in particular have high rates. so this is, again, something that we've seen throughout the pandemic, which is why during the pandemic, working with community partners, we at d.p.h. have focused our efforts at testing, vaccine efforts, prevention services in neighborhoods most affected. next slide. so there's been a lot of talk about the delta variants, variants in general during the pandemic. i've used the term several times already during this presentation, so just to be explicit, what is a variant? so viruses constantly change, and this is a normal process of the virus. a variant is a virus that contains changes different from the parent. some viruses have an advantage over the parent and persist or become more common, so this is basic virology, where a virus adapts. through active genomic surveillance, scientists can identify variants that are concerning, requiring further study, and precautions. public hea

this is the city below sea level. so in essence, it's a bowl of surrounded by levies and pumping system all the water that gets into that both it's got to be pumped out. every half a brain got to be moved out so far. the renew pumping system after katrina is doing its job. but again, it got a long way to go. there's a lot more to be done. yeah. and j it's 16 years since 110. katrina devastated new orleans. so how well prepared is the city this time around? yes. well, i think much better prepared as i talked about, the pumping system has been rejuvenated and in areas replace with the state of the art equipment. you've got levies that have been built up and for the fight and they're doing a job. there's been some over topping and some of the smaller level. it's not enough. the major concern. so overall the city really understood much better how to handle this form. that includes staging, that includes the federal government. you've got electrical pain across the city and ready to go, but only when conditions are comb. yo

he tries to shell the city. quÉbec is a walled city. is so light, the cannonballs bounce off of them. montgomery sends letters telling the british governor he should surrender. he sends the messages back unopened. montgomery who outranks arnold faces a huge problem and that's on january 1st, most of arnold's arm enlistments expires and are going to go home on january 1st. richard montgomery decides on the night of december 31st, 1775, to try to storm the city of quÉbec. the midst of a roaring blizzard, wild blizzard, the american army is demolished. richard montgomery is killed almost immediately. benedict arnold is seriously wounded and the american army in canada is shattered. what's interesting here, this is where we're going to take a quick aside, is montgomery becomes the great -- yes. go ahead, brook. >> did they really only go in because all of their -- it was all going to expire? >> they were going to go home. yeah, that's why they attack. because if we wait until january 1st, half the army is going home? >> do you think they ha

that's what the city's guidance is requiring. it is built on the float, that can move up and down as the water level rises, and sits on four fixed guide piles. so if the seas go up, it can move up and down with that. >> it does have a full range of travel, from low tide to high tide of about 16 feet. so that allows for current tidal movements and sea lisle rises in the coming decades. >> the fire boat station float will also incorporate a ramp for ambulance deployment and access. >> the access ramp is rigidly connected to the land side, with more of a pivot or hinge connection, and then it is sliding over the top of the float. in that way the ramp can flex up and down like a hinge, and also allow for a slight few inches of lateral motion of the float. both the access ramps, which there is two, and the utility's only flexible connection connecting from the float to the back of the building. so electrical power, water, sewage, it all has flexible connection to the boat. >> high boat station number 35 will provide mooring for three f

the afghan authorities admit some parts of the city have been taken. e, the afghan defence ministry says it has called in american b—52 long—range bombers to try to halt the taliban offensive in sheberghaan. air strikes, it claims, have already hit the insurgents, killing many of them. there is a risk, though, of civilian casualties. already many civilians have been killed or injured including children. the hospitals filling up. the taliban have been specifically targeting government officials, such as the head of the government's information centre. he was shot dead on friday. his funeral has now taken place in the capital, kabul. a killing designed to intimidate those working for the government in kabul. as the situation deteriorates, many afghans who have been outside the country in pakistan are now trying to get back in. but one of the key border crossings has been closed by the taliban leaving many stranded. translation: we came here to attend a funeral three days ago, _ now the border is closed, we are sitting here with no food and no money, we ca

it looks like the city, _ it feels like the city is abandoned because people are indoors, even the onesle in turkey, the wildfires are continuing for the ninth day. in total, eight people have died. the focus in the last 48 hours has been on the kemerkoy thermal power plant — these pictures show the fires approaching it. that caused considerable concern because of the coal stored there. this has all been happening in the southern part of turkey, around some of its most popular holiday resorts. the kermekoy power plant is just 15 kilometres from the beach at oren. the authorities chose to evacuate holiday—makers from there by boat, as the fire approached. one couple from the netherlands spoke after reaching safety. absolutely no problem. we are on the boats in the harbour and we were sleeping outside. the only thing was the ash rain. we notice that only this morning, but we already decided to go this morning, to leave the harbour. the fire did reach the power plant complex — fortunately, the workers had been evacuated, and flammable materials removed from the area. as you can see from th

in this case, higher rates in the southeastern part of the city. on this map, the higher the concentration in the city. so you see mission, tenderloin in particular have high rates. so this is, again, something that we've seen throughout the pandemic, which is why during the pandemic, working with community partners, we at d.p.h. have focused our efforts at testing, vaccine efforts, prevention services in neighborhoods most affected. next slide. so there's been a lot of talk about the delta variants, variants in general during the pandemic. i've used the term several times already during this presentation, so just to be explicit, what is a variant? so viruses constantly change, and this is a normal process of the virus. a variant is a virus that contains changes different from the parent. some viruses have an advantage over the parent and persist or become more common, so this is basic virology, where a virus adapts. through active genomic surveillance, scientists can identify variants that are concerning, requiring further study, and precautions. p

as the evacuating the city. i mean, those 2 things may be happening and i think those are going to be measured. they're getting from the us and its allies, with regard to under consideration is the issue of domestic lives, timothy. and that comes down to foresight. whether tough one will have the foresight to think that if they take over a couple in a surrender deal, how would other app on proceed? the ones that are not allowed to talk about how we can not clinically present a tar country. that would be absurd. i believe the present minority, but we can debate how popular they are, but it's absolutely clear that they don't, they don't represent the majority or most how would they take over a couple if it's done to basically surrender would be proceed. how a future government that comes down a comes out of a profit that is absolutely contributed. tell them i will proceed if they don't care about the medical is going to see all my grade. there is going to be armed by the distance against them. i mean, that is the n
