and it helps those roots to develop and get adapted. but generally most trees don't need a lot of fertilization if your soil conditions are very bad, you might want to amend the soil, i always like to do organic soil. we work with a variety of nurseries in the area. so there's not just one. we have some nurseries where we get a lot of the same species that ke with count on them. sometimes we have to go a little bit further up field. there are a few nurseries that they are not based in the city. they are based in the nearby areas where there is more land. and they have to be acity-approved vendor. so we are restricted -- a lot of times is having that paperwork. everybody is qualified, they just haven't done that. but there are some good >> this is newly constructed within the last month or so, new sidewalk. what can you tell us about this? >> as i said earlier, spikas a hearty urban tree. they have aggressive roots and sometimes they daniel the infrastructure, with the fica tree, we can repair the sidewalk around it, it doesn't mean we s

>> it is an adaptive strategy. the predictions are an upper scale up sea level -- of sea level rising, and it does not fit that s -- curve. commissioner torres: this is over 100 years? >> this is over 100 years. it gives us the ability to adjust and to generate the funds to just over time. president vietor: and that is all factored into the budget and in 100-year plan? >> correct. >> do you make today's residents pay for it forever? you are asking to pay for a reasonable future, but then they pay for it as it continues to grow. >> pc level rise predictions are actually less. if we change, we have to cope less. we will spend the capital where it is not needed. if it is more, we can accommodate the additional sea level rise. commissioner torres: if i may, what benefit is it to the ratepayers that we provide these protections? >> i do not quite understand the question. commissioner torres: are we going to ensure that we have a minimum of 16 inches for the project? to what benefit are all those improvements? >> most of

so they adapted to their aesthetic. exactly, exactly. and the jokes are different and the interactions are often very different. and i suspect that that makes a difference. i mean, when somebody walks in and, you know- it's an icebreaker, almost. yes. the dynamics are very different. we have also transgender clients in our treatment program which again change the dynamics again kind of like what william was saying. that the transgender community is very different from the gay community and the lesbian community, so we have to make accommodations for that, too. marco? it has been proven that when you have treatment, culture specific enhances the ability to recover the individual. i will give you an example in terms of the hispanic population. we have a residential program where meals are prepared by home, you know. it's not a cafeteria meals that we prepare, but we have cooks who are sensitive to the culture. and that really brings home to a particular person who is in recovery and engagements. so, so important for recovery to be culture

cary pearloff said you want to do a play for us, how about adapting rashamon. i said, sure. as is the case when i do this, sometimes i go in a straight line and sometimes i end up somewhere totally different. i've grown to accept it, that i'm going to follow the horse wherever it goes and hope that the theater is comfortable with it. so it started off as rashamon and i couldn't find an entree into it. for me, when i do an adaptation, i try to frame it in present day life context or contextualize it in another moment and bring that skeletal story line structure into it. and i couldn't make any headway. then a story that had been kind of floating around in my head kind of came to the fore, and is as the case when i write, there will be story lines floating around in my head for years, years and years are floating around in my head waiting for a moment to find its moment. and this story that i had been working on off and on about this boarding house in san francisco post internment camps. as i worked on this rashamon story, this other one came alive and they began to meld and t

you have the skills to adapt to a new society. what we are seeing now are people who are very lost in a time that was and what they are train today do and a time that is and what they are not trained to do. i think we are all trying to figure out a way to bridge the two so that we are training people to be able to contribute to society in a way that makes them feel good about themselves. >> in our high school and elementary grades to expose students to more options i think that we are suffering from go this route for that route as opposed to perhaps some blending or timing issues here. >> we know that in education especially in the elementary school level and certainly in the high school level in order to keep a student engaged they have to understand the real life value to what they are learning. similarly we have to make sure that the real life value is found in the academic structure that allows them the freedom to pursue other avenues if necessary. we have a great partnership in the building trades that we have. we have starte

so as far as adaptibility, in my strange and fun job, i've had to adapt all along. with the intent and the laser beam focus of getting a job at a newspaper as their staff political cartoonist. which is a crazy weird thing to try and go for. and it's a long shot and even the best of times. and that didn't happen. and so instead what i did was i started self-syndicating my own cartoons and selling them myself to newspapers all over the country. and along the way what i decided to do was experiment with animation and i thought oh, hey, maybe i can animate these things and try that. then lo and behold, i get a job as a staff cartoonist at a newspaper, my dream job, and did it for a while but it was really an awful time for the industry, for the business, for that particular paper, so i left that and went back 300% doing political animation. and i've been doing that ever since. and now i don't want to give you the phony impression that it was all this beautiful, upward trajectory to creating my wonderful uple -- purple mountain magesty liberal arts cartoons. i had to fig

this to god the lesson learned here is that as we reform the educational system students to adapt to change our world to succeed it must be at the heart of. why are we doing it today our country changed back in the ninety's. because at any given time people pay more or less attention if education the educational system under was considerable reforms during the soviet era as well it is worth noting though that in the 1980's when the need for reforms was already there the experience dramatically your profound change and education was put on the back burner sort of. in the one nine hundred ninety s. when the need for change was acute lack the necessary funds the resources to implement it that's why by introducing a new law and education and getting educational institutions more freedom is the state itself withdrew from education both in terms of support and in terms of setting requirements and goals the education system. or the work on which. the weather story for educational reforms are being criticized by many. cloying state officials teachers students parents experts and their main p

>> what i am concerned about is i think adaptive management is appropriate as long as financing is behind its. i am concerned that it becomes a shift in obligation at some point. we are saying the obligation would go to them. they would have the community improvement fund, and that would be generating $35.7 million a year. you're saying the first priority is sea level rising improvement. is that mandated at some plays, -- at some place bowman -- place? is there some way to deal with these improvements? >> in the financing plan, which is transactional agreement as well as this monitoring program, which is a mitigation program. >> i did read that, and i saw the mechanism exists corrigan which i did not see is some obligation to use that mechanism -- i saw the mechanism exists. what i did not see is an obligation to use the mechanism. >> the sea level rise improvements have the first call on those dollars. goothe financing plan is an attachment. >> that is what i could not find. if it is in there, i would like a citation. it looks as though if there is enough money there, you can probably af

street and on third street, through market street, every single time, we learned some things we could adapt. i think adaptability has caused me and my staff to get more creative so we're not looking at simple programs that will themselves be the answer, but that we need some specific types of things that will help small businesses in those corridors succeed. what i would like to do is open up some ideas here, and i think this is where we can get creative because i think the small businesses want some creativity from the city. i do want to suggest each of the corridors have all asked for more of the increase of things like newspaper pedestals. i know that we are about to get anyone on balboa park place. that's going to do wonders and i think all the corners of our established business corridors, i think they can benefit from the uplift by having newspaper racks, and we should talk with newspaper owners to get their consent to rollout even more of a neighborhood related rack that would help with the vision people have about increasing it. that means looking at our revolving loan program and b

in terms of this notion of adapting let me just offer one more example.me court considered a course to it was an interesting case about whether or not a public employee has a result expectation of privacy in text messages that are sent from a government issued cell phone. and the court interestingly declined to decide that issue because it observed that the dynamics of fumigation are changing, not just because we have new technology, but rather because society's expectations of privacy with respect to new technologies have not fully settled. and so the court said that workplace norms are evolving and that it's not clear yet what kind of expectations of privacy and society are prepared to recognize as readable. and so this is just another example of how it is that you can call it evolving norms or you can call it social conditions, informed the court's approach to the interpretation of certain constitutional provisions. >> my time is up, madam chair and. i'm going to have to be in and out today, but i intend to return to ask more questions than it all righ
