now they are able, in some sense, to be able to discern the future tactical intentions of the german military. it is a critical, critical breakthrough, because people forget that great britain was standing alone against the not onslaught. the battle of britain was a very yalgh challenge for the ro air force. and the ability to discern future tactical operations of the german military was a huge advantage. one of the methods that the germans used with great effect was to conduct their bombing raids at night. if you read anything at all about the blitz, it was an incredibly difficult time. britaintions of great are being destroyed. lives are being lost. did bomb atmans night, it was more effective. they lost your pilots. they lost fewer planes. one of the systems they used was, they would send a radio beam from the airfield, either in germany or france or somewhere and occupied europe, to the target in the u.k. they would lock onto the beam. they would be able to deposit their bombs and lock back on the beam and fly back through their airbase. this proved to be very effective. but when

so i hope that you will be able to join us. and just that we don't always acknowledge some of the large and small victories that we have and i wanted to thank some of the staff members on july 17th, we had such a five items at the board of supervisors. and all five went through with tremendous support. from putting forward three items related to the orton development that was mentioned earlier and pier 70 and the approval for the art installation that has gone up and the lights are on at the pier 14. and so that was with megan and elaine and brad and jonathan, as or who was with the orton project. and brad was able to get a project through with the hoe down yard that we have worked with for some time and i want to take a moment to thank the staff because you don't always see the important steps so i want to thank all of you for making those happens, and so thank you. >> i think that is it for me. >> item under on the consent calendar, item a. >> okay, public comment. >> seeing none. >> next item. >> okay. >> item 7 arequest aut

this is a draft report, and so we recognize the need for people to be able to review and absorb, and we will be looking forward to taking comments through september, and then be able to take stock of the comments and feedbacks if we get back to before we finalize the report. thank you for your patience to everyone actually for the website, access. >> so hopefully, if you have any problems, let us know, it should be available. the project that we have tried to undertake is looking at the full 17 years of the water front plan has been in place and we were required to look at a 5-year time window but we extended it to look at the full array of things that have happened on the water front to pride, education for the public, and there are 123 different projects that have been profiled in the report, and while that is a lot, that is not every project, that has happened, but we think that it is reflective of the breadth of the activities that have taken place and it all started after the city's effort to tear down the freeway and replace it with the transportation improvements and both proj

the messages, at they are able to see clearly the is objective for japan "a.f." the next question of course is, what does a. f. correspond to? rochefort came to the conclusion quickly because he had been doing this type of analysis for a while that a.f. was definitely midway island. he convinced nimitz that this was the case and nimitz informed the marines on midway to be ready for a massive japanese invasion. so far the plan seems to be going quite well. the problem was this. the superiors of these gentlemen in washington, admiral king and admiral redmond, were not quite sure that they were on the right track. nimitz was never ordered to put this plan on the shelf, but they did question him and basically second guess him. not so much because they weren't confident in his leadership abilities, but because they were worried. can you understand why they were worried. we were down to 50 ships. if nimitz was wrong, that would mean that both hawaii and the west coast could be open to japanese invasion. the second guessing, though, really got under rochefort's skin, an

without being able to look at further evidence which at this point in time we have not been able to do. >> and the other thing that you don't know, none of us know, is exactly how many shots were fired. apparently the weapon that was probably used could fire about a dozen shots. we do know that one of the shots actually went into someone's house and that bullet had to be recovered by police in at least one house. so it may be that as with many shootings by police, most of the bullets missed. and there could have -- that kind of reaction you're talking about, about he hears a shot fired and he physically reacts to hearing a shot fired, that could have happened many times? >> it could have, yes. one thing i want to stress that really wasn't stressed at the press conference is that there's really two parts to an autopsy. you have the physical autopsy of the body. then you literally have the autopsy of the crime scene. and it's very important that we find out how the crime scene is put back together. what happened in the car? what processing did they do in the car? if a gunshot did go off

they gave up and said we'll never be able to do it. we have to get the information ways.er >> when i became curator in 2006, i was of the opinion that humans could design a cryptology system, humans can break it. that.l believe but i have to tell you, this is the argument to the contrary. perfectthis machine was from the time it was put on-line and it was perfect from the time it was taken off line. in fact, the only reason it was removed from service was other achines were getting a little bit faster, the computer age was dawning. frank rowlet on the day he was asked, what are you most proud of. career.a storied and he replied, i don't have to think about that much, fellas. of the fact that encryption perfect machine. if you look at this exhibit, we can ask a question, why did the ii.ted states win world war well? as noted, they won it because rave soldiers, sailors, marines, were able to go off and stand in harm's way and carry the fight to the enemy. -- number of ck planes and guns and tanks to force needed. with the exceptions, we

a woman was able to get on to a plane without a ticket. while that stowaway is in jail, the question now is how was she able to get through security screening. nbc bay area's bob redell is live at san jose. bob, the airport maintains that there was never really any risk to the public. >> and, kris, we spoke with the airport within the past couple of hours, and they are contending that this was not a security breach. yes, they acknowledged that on monday, that this woman, a 60-year-old woman named marilyn hartman, was able to get past the tsa document checker on the second floor of terminal "b" without an airline ticket, but said she also did have to go through the security screening process, where she was scanned for prohibited items. >> safety was not compromised in any way, because the passenger did undergo screening by tsa officials. >> reporter: once passed the security checkpoint, hartman made it over to the boarding gate for a southwest airlines flight to l.a.x., was somehow able to board that flight without a ticket. once on the gro

and then, moving down, obviously, the brandon street wharf and a new improvement that we are all able to enjoy. there were two prao*ers there, 34, and 36 and both had been condemned are on their way there. and the removal of those piers was part of an arrangement that the port commission and the bcds commission set up to be able to focus the major public improvements for the public open space and fill removal in exchange for being able to do the variety of land uses that we now see in the developments today. and then moving south into the southern water front, i think that the herins head park and the various layers of improvements that have taken shape down there. and for taking a spit of land that was just dead fill. and making improvements, and so that it made it publicly accessible and then available for a natural habitat area. creating the environmental education programs, that commissioner brandon was very centrally involved in, with the bay view community. and then bringing it forward to the ecocenter, and there and barely off of the grid facility that furthers the facility pro

we were able to put the train conductor meet with him there.mation that cacahuate was in a stash house in kingsville with a load of aliens. there were numerous people laying down asleep. one of them was laying on the couch. i recognized him as cacahuate. i immediately grabbed him, put him on the floor. he was subsequently charged with that smuggling load that he was apprehended with and it kicked in the process of the denison 11. >> one of these cowards, one of the coyotes is doing 24 years in an american prison, right where he should be. >> the train conductor did 41 months. he's out. the missing piece of the puzzle is ballesteros. >> the indictments came in 2003 so it's been over ten years and nothing has come about. >> the case has been dismissed without prejudice, meaning that it could be reopened. there is reason to believe that don memo may be back in texas. when and if he is found, doing the same thing, a conspiracy charge and reactivate the denison 11 case. >> i don't think i will understand why charges were dropped. those families need

you are able to share your trip which is a big safety thing. once you enter the vehicle, there is a button that says "share my eta" and people can see where you are at all times. we have very fast and responsive customer service. customers are very pleased with our response time and feedback issues. and, we are also able to show you clearly the time of arrival to get to your destination. uber partners with many different types of vehicles. these are the models we have now. these are options at any price point. we want to be affordable and accessible to anyone. you may have heard these different options being referred to before. we have uber black which was our first model and this is a town car option. there is uber suv which is for times that you need more space, this is a bigger option and uber x is everyday cars. this is our peer to peer products that we have. then there is also uber taxi which allows us to partner with existing taxi models. another thing that is really important is pricing transparency. we don't want there to be any surpris

we were able to support 25 organizations and able to reach 500 young people just through that community based strategy. so we have been extremely enthusiastic about that. >>president vince courtney: what's the average amount? >> $25,000 and those would have come to you for approval prior to them going out. and then finally we had a strong focus on puc issues and also had young people engage others. what we saw last year is youth engaging other youth rather than us working direct ly even though we feel young. we really try to expand on this strategy. this past summer, almost 600 young people toured our headquarters and southeast plant and those tours were led by young people. it's something we are going to continue to do throughout the school year and have young people lead those tours. over 100 youngster were able to tour hetch hetchy. as you remember we had the class from the high school that we are supporting open up the season of camp this year and first time we invested in that way of having a high school class exposed to that and all of those

will i be able to stay in my home after the expected earthquake? is that a good question to ask?> yeah, you may be more specific if you talk to the owner, if it is not a recent building, if it is ten or 20 years old see if they had an inspection done and there you will have a written before that will tell you all about the structure. >> thanks, pat. >> thanks, harvey. and thanks david for joining us and thank you for joining us on >> i'm warren corn field and we are doing a series called stay safe, we are going to talk about staying in your home after an earthquake and taking care of your pet's needs. ♪ >> here we are at the spur urban ken center and we are in this little house that was built to show what it is like in san francisco after an earthquake. we are very pleased to have with us today, pat brown from the department of animal care and control and her friend oreo. >> hi. >> lauren. >> could you tell us what it would take after an earthquake or some other emergency when you are in your home and maybe no power or water for a little while. what it would take for you and oreo

so at this projection between 28 and $18,000 we feel the artist we've been able to identify that are going to need subsidy we feel we can help them all the details has not been accounted yet but just there are no public speakers on this item the solar didn't work we're working on a fundraising movement to try to get feed money for the fund so our annual presentation we expect you to come to we're magnifying that event and hope to generate between 10 and $15,000 in funds we're geology to have extra seed money we feel that roadway as we know the issue to be we're going to be able to manage it we have some savings we've been able to stay within our operating budget every year so we have a savings in seizing every $20,000 if we need that before the solar money kicks in we feel like the money part is covered. the problem is those 5 artists have been identified based on the survey that ocii and star conducted at the beginning of the year and follow-up telephone conversations fill they're signed the lease we don't know exactly who will say oh, guess what i can't afford it or i can. so we're

is not going to be able to fix itself. as we both have talked with the incoming secretary, he will be able to make the change that is necessary from the top. you mentioned about $5 billion will be offset. where those offsets coming from? >> $5 billion offset from other programs in the v.a., which i feel comfortable with. >> this all emergency funding. -- is all emergency funding. >> can you change the culture inside the v.a.? >> i hope within the next few days, it will be voted upon -- i have a lot of confidence in bob mcdonald. e. have a new man ther i hope very much that the da fully understands that some of what we have seen and heard about in the last few months 0-- it is not a political issue, it is unacceptable to every member of the united states congress. about our relationship between congress, the v.a. -- it will provide information to us when we need that information. i want to say that i believe that i think it is true in many parts of this country that when veterans get into the v.a. system, they feel pretty g

will be able to attach and push it or pull it out thereof and they will not be able to couple electronically so that all of the systems, you know such as the lights in the doors will go on. and so, we would look at, the other thing again, is the coupling is the size, and you know, this will give us the ability to run up to four car trains, subject to some infrastructure limitations and so we want to look at that and i would think that we will have clearly the period of time when we will have the mixed fleets, but i try to do everything that we can to separate them. >> the central subway project is that we increase the fleet, by 24 vehicles, and by the subway open and so the first 24 will be an ad dish that will bring the fleet to 1, to 175 and then, we will be able to run the two fleets together and we will be able to for some period of time and although we will like to minimize that, but, we would, and we will continue to run the cars, and until they, and until we retire them and we replace them with the additional cars if we are able to exercise, those 40 and the option and we will have mo

it sort of shows how the collaborations between the port and the city and the community have been able to bring forth a really valuable resource in the area. the water front land use itself provides the overview for the projects port wide as well as the individual sites that many people have been focusing on the projects recently, and it was required as a result of a ballot initiative that was passed in 1990, proposition h, where the piers were required to be included in the plan, the port commission at the time included all of the port's properties in the plan and didn't thifrpg that it made since to look at only the piers per proposition h. the plan identifies acceptable uses for every port facility on a long term basis as well as setting, leasing guidelines for the interim uses that take place in the port facilities. and there was a water front land use, water front plan advisory board that was set up by the mayor and the board of supervisors, and the port commissioners at the time. and they worked to recognize the water front plan, which the port commission, embraced and adopted, w

brantly was able to do. i don't know if you can see from this view, but it doesn't appear there's a respirator. there is some medical equipment with that gurney. the two workers. is there anything you can glean from the picture you can see, sanjay? >> no, i see the same thing. we did not think she would be on a breathing machine. as you know, she asked for food the other day. you know, she got her appetite back, was asking for food. obviously, that's not something she could have done if she was on a breathing machine. strapped in. that's pretty standard for somebody being transported by ambulance. if they're not ambulatory. safety precaution. they're taking her now into the hospital. obviously can't tell much more about her condition just from those images. you can see the suits, the tyvek suits going inside the building. >> help me understand, what would the protocol be for all of the people who work at that hospital and all of the patients who are currently in that hospital, what would they have had to do

it is so crucial to be able to communicate. and i only realize that when i met people like oj and holly because it's that self expression. what was really moving to me when i met holly was that she was talking to me using the sin th thesized voice but when she hits on phrases that she had p prerecorded where she was inviting her dog to come fetch a biscuit, you know, her dog responded to her voice. it was just so emotional to actually experience, you know, voice. >> that's when i realized just how crucial this technology is. >> now, absolutely loved the photos that you took on this trip. can you share them? >> yeah. i mean i was just so moved by meeting oj and i just had to post this picture because i felt privileged to meet someone who is so amazing. >> if you guys wants to see more posts like that from the field, be sure to check us out on instagram. next? >> imagine you are in a collapsed building, buried beneath a pile of rubble with no way to communicate to anyone on the outside world that you are still alive. i looked at

nobody else would have been able to handle it.s considered a giant in serving food and commissary and the u.s. prison and county system and keefe is a major competitor and level it to our advantage. >> so the percentage of savings for inmates will be what, roughly with this? >> 40 to 50 percent,... >> compared to what they, paid >> previously. >> okay. >> that is correct. >> that is correct. and as i said, we actually are going to be able to take in a little bit more money because of the price point difference that keefe i think, is it has been innovative in being able to furnish to us and so their profit is less, too. than the predecessor. and so, next on the department benefits, replace paper ordering system with phone ordering system. and we are at booking kiosks to reduce the time spent and handling the cash deputies and modernizing the system and we even had to have a deputy at a kiosk, taking money and cash in, which i don't, necessarily subscribe to, and it is being the most efficient or the fool proof way, and so that is w

is that something you think you would be able to do already now or that nato would be able to say nextweek? my command has proposed 140 seven projects where nato can and best to achieve this. i will not name any of those but it covers the full spectrum of what is needed to make sure that our forces are at the ready, that we have flexible posture where we canble deploy when it is needed. i stress again that the nations are doing a lot of this as well to propose that. there is no pure limit to that. it is a national perspective of lined with the nato perspective. i would say every single nation is able. all of them are very willing to contribute to this effort. you see where we deployed our whats recently discussing i know of policing and i have been a part of that for many years, policing and the baltic states. forces in twoed countries. we are deploying other forces in the southeastern. this is a very dynamic posture that we are dealing with. we do not want to concentrate our forces on a single point. we cannot afford that. we must be flexible and adaptable enough to make sure that we

this is what we have to look at in order to be able to describe a work effectively. descriptive criticism, firstly, involves the ability to define these terms. and secondly, the ability to identify them in separate or individual works of art, for example, as we have distributed here on the wall or hung on the wall. let's first look at or analyze shape and form. what do we mean by shape and form? well, these are clearly discerned. we are talking about color, shapes which our eye clearly distinguishes, and we are able to separate individual shapes of color in the painting that we are looking at. and this is what we mean by shape and form. they can be flat. they can be three-dimensional. what do we mean by mass? and what do we mean by volume? in this painting, for example, by caravaggio, the idea of volume and the idea of mass-- we are dealing with density, with weight. these figures are solid. these figures have a sense of corporeality. they're tangible. and that is achieved through the illusionary techniques that are available to the artist. this i will cover a little

but drivers who do this full time are able to do very well for themselves. they are able to provide and use this on a full time basis. >> so if there is capital available, putting in the minimum bare minimum requirements on your own accessibility training and then just having a simple on-site visit. i just don't see how that's actually going to have any real world effect. so i strongly urge you to go back and say, if we have the money and putting our money where our mouth is so to speak and say we do believe in accessibility, that's something we should do is providing mandatory wheelchair accessible vans. it would be great to your city to be able to show this off as opposed to having over the computer training. that's one of mine. okay. i think that's all i have for now. we are going to councilmember harriet wong. >> hi, going back to what chip was saying about how some don't use credit cards. perhaps uber can have their own type of gift card or smart pass. and then i wanted to go to the topic of the on board training. i think that's really important. so, i

by being able to have support for that to double our budget to be able to continue that research up to close it down, we would be able to diagnose cte during life very accurately within the next five years. >> i will start by saying that i work for two different nonprofit companies for a for-profit company and i and a professor at the academic institutes are there our various thoughts that go through my mind to answer this question. i think if we had the funds from the federal government lets say that would sponsor private companies that would be easy for private companies to get investors it would improve the value to the investor by having federal government support. that's a little out there. big pharmaceutical companies don't do that anymore. smaller companies are now the ones that have to go out and either raise the money or fight for the grants just to be able to get this to the plaintiff point it can go into clinical trials. professors and academic institutes have wonderful ideas but they never hardly try to commercialize them because they do not have the means in which to do th

whiffer is able to conduct ib vefrtgations. i think there is a war is hell an people got killed and that's not the way to look at it. the geneva conventions impose rules that are designed to spare civilians as much as possible. with respect to hamas, they completely prohibit the indisriminate rocket attacks aimed broadly at israel. targeting. one case, two dozen civilians killed because maybe there was one militant there. no one would justify an attack like that. israel killing young boys on the beach because they were running away from a structure that was beingshelled as if anybody would stand next to the stricture as it was beingshelled. time after time, we have seen israel violating the rules that say you have to make sure what you are targeting is a legitimate target and only aim at that and only do it in circumstances designed to minimize civilian casualties. israel is violating that left and right. >> which leads me to the question: does israel care? do any of the governments that are involved in these conflicts and they

they will be able to remain solvent. >> how has this been with the board? has been a distraction. they heard some stories about -- that have started to surface. when all of the investigating journalists are digging deep into the situation. i know the los angeles times did a big piece on it. he visited south korea and, you tell it. what feeling did you have after spending time in south korea? >> south korea is an actual ordinary story. they only got their independence in 1948. what both of those countries have in common is that they're cap but a, they would be the top 20 in the world by the end of the decade. about $35,000 a person, they are using purchasing power parity. south korea, it is really actually married to see what they have done in just 65 years. >> the particular segments of the korean economy. if you look at the largest names, they are sam song. you have hyundai, the automobile company, and the steel company that has a market cap of $25 billion. it has outperformed of the last 10-15 years. i would be really surprised if it is not continue to ou

that is something we have not been able to get as easily or that the house is been able to get. we have had never sponsored. we don't have subpoena power. budget information that is coming out from that hearing has been taking place up on capitol hill. they have enhanced abilities and powers as a congressional committee to compel that kind of information and the release of that information for their consumption and the public's consumption. good morning, frank. caller: good morning. -- aboutling because the irs. audit [indiscernible] they are still taking my social security money out of my check every month. i lost my house. i paid them for everything between kansas city and austin, texas. host: he is talking about his personal information. anything you want to comment on what he brings up? guest: i don't think you're going to find too many people if favoranked their government agencies and the irs will come out on top or anywhere close to it for whatever personal reason someone might have to. the irs is not going to be a favorite institution by many americans. at the same time,

using cyber as a weapon to be able to attack our systems. but when i see and read the media here, i am less depressed because i did not think they understand it yet. right now i call it kids' soccer everyone chasing the shiny toy or ball. if you were to read the newspaper, you could not delineate the term web pack and more sophisticated computer networking attack. so i think we have to get to the point where we can get more clarity in terms of what we mean with respect to cyber. you cannot mirror image our adversaries. if you were to look at the very top it would be russians, chinas, united states, some of our allies. but by and large, their intent, unless escalating in a military situation, is not to take down and attack systems unless they are threated. by and large it is exploit, which means they are in the business of stealing secrets. those are jobs. innovation, that is what keeps america going forward and vulnerable and susceptible which means it is being stolen at huge amounts like that. if you are in the chinese minds, what would det
