court and go and go. i need transit. and i want to just say that on market street, i bought a building between polk and van ess where you need the courage and the bullet proof vest to get to work every day and i stayed there it seems to be a great place, twitter finds it to be an ideal location to be but it always wasn't. and what made the difference is the way that market street has evolved. and one of the most important going to collapse. transit is like water, if you put in a block in one place, it will move another place if you give that need another avenue it will take it and as a small business person, thank you for holding this meeting and thank you for helping my people get to work and my clients get to my office and to keep the city alive, thank you. >> thank you. >> next? >> mary lauren hall. swarts, and kaplin of >> i am with the alliance for biking and walking and an organization based in washington, d.c., we focus on biking and walking issues and i am here today to give you a little bit of co

there are 4 and 9. p john, and holland. i am here for the affordable housing. [ speaking in a foreign language ] >> i wrote down what i was going to say but the best testimony is when it comes from the heart and i lived in the shelter. [ speaking in a foreign language ] and it is a horrible experience not to be able to give your children a roof over their heads. [ speaking in a foreign language ] >> and it is really hard when you are not high income earning and you don't have a stable job. [ speaking in a foreign language ] >> and i think that it is really important that all of our children have a roof over their head as well as a good education. and for the future of this country. [ speaking in a foreign language ] >> and just really that you are supporting affordable housing for folks like me that don't have a really high income. p [ speaking in a foreign language ] >> thank you and good night. >> i am a parent advocate and i could tell you the stories about the families that i work with, but instead of that i want you to

and in terms of these concerts and so on and so forth. and not to mention the fact that we get to see the warriors who full disclosure, season ticket holder to the warriors. and loving it. the civic pride that is going to be generated here, i think is just, it is the wo w factor and it is just fantastic and with that i will just say, i will second the previous speaker >> anything that you can do to push this along? >> fantastic. go for it. go warriors. >> and after you, we will have ruben heculoba. >> and good afternoon. my name is (inaudible) rice and i have been active on the water front for years and years as you know. to many commissions. and the i could go on and on. and every time that i said something,... and every time that i said something negative about the development they lost. so i have had pretty good record. of accuracy and besides this development is concerned, i have located at the golden gateway which is a four tower center. and a lot of the people there, object to this, because they are worried about the noise that the

have built and my dad was a laborer for 30 years and i have been a community organizer for 20 years and all of these people have the same story and help to create this beautiful city that we live in and so i think that the most beautiful thing about being here is seeing the school district and the office of housing and we need to have all of the departments of the city come together and address this crisis, because it is not fair that kids don't have a place to do their homework and a place to cook and a place to feel safe, you know? and so i think that it is really important that we step up to the plate, and even though this is not like a school district problem, we need to look at it as a city problem that we are all a part of and that we have to step up and do something about. and so i really am supportive of looking at all of the school district properties and figuring out how we can do this together to build housing to build healthy food spaces, to build resources and everything that supports the city that supports the families that have built this city and so thank you very much f

kim and fewer and mcdonald and everyone who is a part of this city. and i hope that this can be a beginning of a larger conversation of how we use the property and i am in complete support of the comments made around the need of a larger vision of how we use the property and i think that we need to do that, lastly, one thing that i also came out of this, is how universal the commitment is to support workforce housing and housing for our teachers and so, let's commit today, to putting together, whatever it takes to make that happen and i don't think that we as a school district can say that the teachers need to figure out this that and the other thing, before we have this conversation, this is a conversation that we need to have together and we need to have the will to get it done and i hope that in terms of broken promises that is not broken that we are here for years from now and we talked about how this did not happen. it was not that brief, but thank you for being here and i am happy that we are doing this. >> commissioner maufas? >> thank you, i w

, the gate and maintenance and the safety and the other risk and issues that are covered and addressed in the analysis. that will be agreeable with our colleagues we would be happy to do that. >> let's open up up for public comment, is there anyone that would like to speak? >> seeing none, public comment is closed. commissioner breed? >> i am going to go ahead and make a motion to approve this item. i think from my perspective, the fact that we do have matching funds, the fact that, you know, we do have a plan in place. and we are looking at moving this project forward within the next couple of years, also gives us time to really look into the details of canopies and other things that we need information for. and i want to make sure that mta continues to collaborate with these various agencies and that we have a clear understanding on what is the best plan in order to maximize this large public investment or any public investment related to any of these transportation projects but i think that i am really actually excited about the possibility of doing this work for these escalators be

and india and pakistan hold face-to-face talks. >> and i have the sport and hear what the managers have to say about the stalemate at chelsea and the football returns to egypt and we will find out why the players may find that league lonely place to be. ♪ these were the scenes in the early hours of this morning as a powerful explosion tore through a police headquarters in egypt, it's the second time the building has been attacked raising any concerns about security and not just there but elsewhere in the country and it was detonated in the city of mansouri, north of cairo and one of the worst attacks since mohamed morsi was out of power in july and there were 120 others injured and they are calling it a terrorist attack. the muslim brotherhood condemned what happened and saying it was an attack on the egypt people and interior minister and he talks while he visits the blast site. >> translator: on monday there were four activists who confessed to some of the incidents and they are trying to terrorize people because of the referendum and i want to assure people there is a plan in place t

between cal train, and muni and bart and transbay terminal. and the ability thousands of giants fan do to walk from their homes or from their businesses to the site which is unavailable to us now. >> okay, thank you. i want to echo what my fellow commissioners and adams said what this represents to the see and also to see the warriors come back to san francisco, and i do want to say more about what this process is about. and not about to let the project at this point as he pointed out, we are in i think a multiphased and as some of the members of the public have said that we are seeing one piece and we are not seeing the whole project and there are other pieces in terms of the residential towers of the hotel and obviously, and in this commission talks about the traffic congestion as well. i saw peter here, and that will be one of the key issues that the commission wants to address and we don't just own the arena we own the embarcadero, it effects the area and the pressure being put on it and that is not being entered today and it is under the

and the complaints received and abaited without notices of violations were 107 and no violations were 166 f, and abaited complaints within these were 26. he is not present to record the housing, and give the housing inspection performed for the last month, for the housing inspections, there were 742 complaints, or i am sorry, for the housing inspection there were 742 inspections performed for the complaints received there were 426, for the complaint response within 24 to 72 hours were 394, complaints and notice of violations issued were 131, abaited complaints and notice of violations were 385. and number of cases sent to the director's hearing was 29. i will have john inspection talk on the code enforcement. >> and for code enforcement, and we took 62 building and electricity and plumbing cases to the director's hearing of those 18 of abasement issues, and 7 were held under advisement. and for the month, we abaited a total of 159 cases that concludes our report, thanks. >> okay, thank you. >> thank you, commissioners. >> thank you, tom. >> is there any public comment on item 4, the d

it was just all candy and ice cream, and it is cheaper and faster and less risk. but, some of the things that would be buying, we need to pay for and we need to pay for someone to finance. we can expect that they will be in the future and we will be paying for the maintenance there and we will be paying to shift the risk and i think that we need a more balanced discussion and it sounded like six slides were just highlights of the indepth analysis and it would be great if you could share that analysis with the board and with the public.. >> this is occurring to p3 and why to design and build the incentives, and for expedited schedule and delivery and i agree that probably shifting somewhere down that. and i think that it is a big decision and i think that we should spend some time, and we should spend some time on that. you have the environmental review complete, but it is maybe up 30 percent design shovel ready and i think that is a bit, misleading and usually you have the documents done and 30 percent is where you will be ready for the design build, and i just, i

and i thank you for this opportunity and i hope to hear from you, and i know that your staff and yourselves know how to contact me, i would be happy to provide new copies if you have not got them available. and would like to move on from there, thank you very much. >> thank you. >> next, up is bill henum. >> thank you. >> good afternoon, commissioners my name is bill han on and i am the president of the golden gateway tenant's association. our members live in a large residential complex and not far from this building where we are now. i wanted to support mr. rander's recommendation that you pay careful attention to the design and study a thoughtful and a worldly document, thank you. >> thank you. >> next up, renee ducru, sorry. >> hello. my name is renee and i am here on behalf of the james r. herman memorial committee. and there will be the local 34 president was unable to be here due to illness and intending to convey this to you on behalf of the committee, the current design elements of the memorial one art piece as well as a multimedia presentation on the memorial wall, the committee in

went ahead and got their design done and got their permit that and is peeled and i think that the meeting that they are referencing happened at the engineer's office and not then, we would not have been present at that time. >> okay. and i would say one thing, you know, in san francisco, we deal with these under pinning permits a lot. because of the lot lands and the excavations they are normally, and what happened in this case was that we obviously had the collapse and that started the mistrust and the doubts, and if this was done right, and this could have been addressed early on in the process and they could have done, a section of 3034, and a 3032 at the same time just as mr. santos said and i am not opposed to that idea but the problem here is the big word trust, no one trusts anybody on how to do it and who is going to do it properly, but the way that mr. santos is right, and you could do that with these holes and like with these pits, ex-vaited down and what is to stop them from going 18 inches, and how to coordinate that, if they want a contractor on 3040 and a different on 3032,

and the seasons to perform and the workshops and with the various department of city and contract for san francisco about this initiative. >> i think that my digest concern about, you know, what we are doing now, is that there is not a clear plan to protect the escalators and i think that if there is such a huge investment that is being requested for these escalators and not just the maintenance plan but i know that supervisor campos wanted to know about a specific main nens, and a long term maintenance plan with the escalators but what is most important to me, is a plan to protect them, especially if we are investing millions of dollars in replacing them. and i understand that this does not happen every night. but, i don't want to wait two or three years for a test. i want there to be in sort of reconsilation sooner than rather than later and there are places that are examples of places where outdoor escalators have been covered and so i am sure that a test is not completely, and we did not do a test for the new shelters that were installed all over the city and in places that they p

and the building permit was approved, and issued, and however, and that was in 2000, and 2001, however, the building permit was canceled, and december in 2004, due to inactivity. the client that work on that case is no longer with the department and it is unclear why exactly that permit was canceled and why no new permit was required or followed up on. and having said that, it is a clear that the conditions that nsr, and the original board decision have not been met. and the planning department will move forward on that as an enforcement action to ensure that the project sponsor regardless of the out come of this appeal will be required to either provide the required off street parking or get a variance to not provide that parking if they can justify that so to that end, the department is mutual to the issue of this appeal and whether it is continued or not continued. and we will deal with this situation, again, as an enforcement of the original, decision, and the original nsr that was recorded on the property that has not been met. and with that, i can take any questions that you have

and we go in and every conceivable designer shop was in there, and it was just amazing and there wereot many people because it was early in the morning, but the driver told me by midday it would be packed. that tells you about some aspect of the economy. >> yeah, absolutely. must be good news in there. lester holt is back with us from inside the arena where it only has gotten louder, lester. >> it's gotten louder, and that's why i have the set of a sports announcement, and it's loud. the gates opened at 6:00 local time here and they came in here and they have been singing and chanting and just a sense of euphoria here. you see the band moved into the stadium, so we suspect things to get underway shortly as more dignitaries collide. the crowd has been enjoying themselves and singing along with what they know, and in this part of africa, rain is considered a good omen, a rebirth, and so how fitting it is that we are experiencing this steady rain this morning. >> hamid karzi arriving in his traditional garb from afghanistan. if you are up with us after 4:00 a.m. eastern time, you can go

and emily's death and others that we know about dangerous and not just soma but in the city and young professionals that have perished and to eldr elders as well and i think there is a more imperative and many advocated this and make the city safer for bicycling and other modes of transportation as well. also bicycling needs to be safe for families to feel comfortable to bike in the city as well so that's a goal. the responsibility to fund the bicycling infrastructure really falls on all of us as the board of supervisors but also for the mayor and the city departments as well, and i believe that we have failed in that regard as well according to the reports. the mta, the mayor and certainly our board of supervisors i think have to come together hopefully with this hearing but also and beyond to put our money where our mouth is and to support demands that have been coming from different neighborhoods in the city for increased and even just adequate bicycle funding in the city so this year i mentioned we suffered consequences of inaction. we have seen that as we advocate to make our str

and here is the rendoring of the unit and by the way, and on the street and open these next week. and for the particular location and it is derived from the functionality. and the details involved. and so the finishing architecture is flexibility, to be adopted or adapted to the different from each of the locations such as the use of the colors and the use of the glazing and the use of the wide and we call it the side screens if you look at it. and so these are elements that could be, and that are flexible and it could be adjusted, per site context. providing the evening lit mall and controlled the lit environment. >> and not only enhance. >> commissioner breed has a question. >> i am sorry, i just wanted to ask about the area i am certain that this has been studied but the area where

in a region where relatively great powers like each other and syria and iraq and iran and saudi arabia, where they have long influenced regional affairs and have long called the shots, if you will. it has been extremely consequential over the last decade and a half. not only has it been extremely consequential, but it has also shaped the direction of current events and, in fact, history as it unfolds. so when i went there, there were several questions that i had and one was when i posted earlier. is qatar for real. is this a country that is exercising a sort of power that is fleeting and in permanent, or is that in many ways consequential? then if you look at delhi, it is an amazing and -- it is a very odd city in terms of its development. it is engaged in what you might call high modernism, with a city that is growing into the sea and sky with artificial islands and also high-rises. but it is also a city where you have relatively little urban tradition. and the urban tradition that is that they are a state directed and it is an urban tradition where the government deliberately tries t

this renewable and demand resource which is being fostered by develop and and technology and by policy initiatives in 39 states and at the federal level. finally, new environmental regulations are also contributing to changes in power supply. although the drivers of power supply changes are largely outside the commission's jurisdiction, we must be aware of and adapt to these departments to carry out our responsibilities to ensure just and reasonable rates, and reliable power grid, and fair and efficient electric and gas markets. my colleagues will discuss several of the ways we are responding. we divide up these topics and i want to focus the balance of my testimony on another critical aspect of our work, reliability and grid security. ensuring reliability means that the commission and nerc, really take care of two things. one is the day-to-day nuts and bolts activities like trimming chains and sending released to keep the lights on, emergency response but in the second is emerging issues like cybersecurity. i believe we're making progress on both fronts. in the past three years you vo

history and the norm for kristyapity and judiasm and islam. a &e tossed phil robertson off tv because he believes what he said. a &e are snobbing americans who have the same view. i doubt many members of the gay rights group even watch duck dynasty. gay rightsoused to lobby for tollerance and now intollerance. reality tv is giving us highway brow vowing as jersey shore or temptation ilapd and cheaters. it is okay for adultery and tone prosmes cuity. but if they reflect a reality of the christian faith, good better help him because the network won't. who in the soughts if think that the millions were that watched. muslims are not crit sidewaysed or banned from the public square and they have far more harsher views on homosex yutity. most christians are tolerant and engauge in social interaction. i can accept anyone but not embrace a vow that is at odds. i have friends that love me but think i am a religious nut for believing in the boibl and resurrection of jesus kroift. are militant homosexuals so insecure that they can't tolerate. can we get

and you had the -- the parade and then you had the rose bowl and then you had the orange bowl and then you went back to work and you thought, okay, that's the ho the day season. well now, it's a little bit more difficult than that, because after -- after the bowl games, which they now extend into the -- then you have the nfl and then you have the nfl and that goes into the first week of february. >> superbowl and all of that. >> and all of that. so now the whole thing is extended to what i call an early winter holiday, an early winter holiday. and so the question becomes, you can't can't celebrate everything, it seems to me. we just get overwhelmed -- overwhelmed. i mean, there's some great things about it, coming in today, i was down on davis street, there's the -- one of the high-rises with the great big red ball for the christmas -- you know,. >> yeah. >> that's great. and you -- all of the christmas trees are up and all of the christmas carols are going on but i'm waiting wait a minute. how many more days of this do we have? so i think the danger is that we become overwhelmed and e

>> we discussed the child care and planning and advisory counsel and so we decided that the nominees were going to be brought to the board of education and the chief of early education and that we sent to us beforehand and we will approve them as a group. is there anything more that you want to say about that? >> that is correct. and also, that would be handled in the same way and there will be consultation with the board of supervisors. >> thank you. on the other one which is the cpac appointments and i take it that you saw what the one thing that was not there, is that the folks that are on there are not getting off on timeds and some of 2014, and 150 and so the result was that we had a staff recommendation, that was very similar to the one that we brought forward and discussed and we are going to vote on is that all of the commissioners will be assigned a member of qtea, and that is going to happen randomly by lottery and when those folks go off we will be able to make the appointments individually and add the superintendents and we considered the ones that you had recommended and

and sureness and faith. he tells us what is possible, not just in the pages of history books, but in our own lives as well. mandela showed us the power of action, of taking risks on behalf of our ideas. perhaps mandela was right he inherited a stubborn sense of fairness from his father, and we know he shared with millions of black and colored south africans the arrows of strikes and unremembered moments, a desire to fight the system that imprisoned my people, he said. but like other early giants, -- [cheering] -- madiba disciplined his anger, and channeled his desire to fight in organizations and platforms, and strategies for action. for men and women to stand up for their god-given dignity. moreover, he accepted the consequences of his action, knowing that standing up to powerful interests and injustice carried the fight. i have fought against who it domination and fought against black domination. i've cherished the ideal of a democratic and free society and which all persons live together in harmony and eq

and we'll have a -- bill o'reilly will be there and megan casey and rick leventhal and then bill hemmer elizabeth hasselbeck. i'll have a special outfit on for you, bob. >> wow, i can't wait for that. >> i'm going to do my one more thing, but tell me about the outfit before you get on. >> i'll send you a picture. >> we're coming up there pretty slowly and we are getting it -- superstars. i made this commitment that i'm going to lose weight and i may have some advice on how to do that on new year's eve. you might want to listen to that. the person we are trying to get to help me might come as a surprise, but if not kimberly will do it. >> does that mean you will give up the tray of donuts. >> i can't. because the sugar police is here. dana says something. >> bob and i will break out the thigh master. >> if you'll get on national television with a thigh master, then we're guaranteed a great audience. i want you to get -- get in that thigh master and that will be fine. >> you don't mind if i get a little chocolate -- >> no, not at all. you just use that baby. >> okay. >> it is like you are

and hennessy and help him? wouldn't that be a bitter legacy than just think you now we are able to buy and stay at hotels or what have you. so there was a conversation a week for having. we basically acknowledged that we were being hypocritical, that the movement had stalled basically because we hadn't been owning up to our responsibility. so, now that i'm an activist and i've made that transition from corporate to cause, we make a lot less money. we are both in the - gears and all that. we have the life. we've given all that up and traded it in. the sense of empowerment and consciousness that i really do believe things can change in america for people we cannot put a price tag on that. so we contribute our own money and we really do think that if the foundation were funded, we could pick up on where the experiment left off and put more of those statistics out and create solutions and even more partnering in the corporate sector so they could do more business in the business owners. all kind of wonderful possib

palo alto, that is cold for some and in the heights and san francisco. 19 and there you go, that is a record, that is is record, 22 walnut creek, san jose, we are waiting for them to hit 29, that would tie a record, and a freeze warning will kick in again tonight and tomorrow. it will be cold again and tomorrow we will get a quick shot of rain. some upper 40s, possible record lows and very low 50s 50s's. let's take a look at some of these pictures, still some slow traffic in orinda and it is filtering back to lafayette but again nothing out of the ordinary if you are driving towards oakland. this morning's commute will be filling in at the bay bridge toll plaza and the metering lights are long if you make it pass pad and going off the roadway, janine de la vega will be reporting live from the scene and tell us about the cleanup process in just a minute as we move over, southbound 880, there was a crash on the shoulder there, 480 coming off the area. >>> crews are on the scene of an apartment fire in san leandro, brian flores is on the scene to tell us about the number of people who

a couple more and he's going to go and retire. here's the thing: you've got to follow the system to a t. at the live events, we'll go and show you that you guys can go out there and do my system, and we'll show you that you can do it 1, 2, 3, literally the abc's of real estate. step by step, in chronological order, the abc's of real estate. so you literally can go and retire the ones that you love or help your family or go and donate to a charity. or just go and buy the car of your dreams that you want. we can make big chunks of cash now and literally be able to go out there and get started right away in real estate. absolutely. what would you tell people right there looking into the camera, those individuals, what would you tell them? would recommend them to go to this live event and get started on a real estate investing career? oh absolutely. i mean what we would say, and we use this often, fear is expensive. so fear of not doing something is a lot greater than the regret that you'll have later on from passing up the opportunit
