but it is a guide and a book, and it should be a breeding document and is part of our toolkit and it is not the only toolkit. when you go to the definition of boy, what does that say? for many newsrooms that headline would've been inappropriate and to me it was very inappropriate and hurtful and demeaning and even racist if you will. just to have that conversation and have someone say to me the ap style book and other journalists in different circles kind of defense that use of the headline on that day and in that moment, and i said okay fine, i was not going to go back and forth with those persons that i know throughout the media industry. i was getting the same kind of reaction, so i said i'm going to call ap and reach out to them. i found one of the editors at ap that deals with style and reached out to him and he was more than open and willing to talk to me. it was a one-to-one conversation that ended up going on over the course of six months, and there was a change, and there is a new definition of the word boy and it includes the nuance of how you would describe like men or to

identity superintense and fur fraught and there's pain and anguish and anger but at the end there are bonds that form between everyone who went and they last, and people say, like this is the most healing thing that happened to me in all the years after my life was upended. >> one of the -- i'm so glad you put in this book, jennifer thompson, she has gone around the country with the behest of innocence organizations, at thing, and she tells her story, and every time he watch it i cry, and i've seen it, like, 60 times, and every time i see it, she is reliving it and i'm always feeling guilty, like, how can we put her through this? and you get to the bottom of that and also with darryl grant. >> right. so, this is a thing that is so tricky for people in the innocence movement because what barery and peter and all of the people they have inspired want is to get as many people out as possible, and to educate the public that this is a very serious problem. how serious? in 2016, three innocent people were exonerated every week of the year, and so a huge part of the work is getting that mess

and inventions and business and music and you name it. we should have a national memorial building to negro achievement and contributions to america. so they introduced legislation beginning around 1920 for that purpose. they hired an african american architect named e.r. williams and this is his design. he built a 4 foot, 6 foot scale model and that's what you see there. it took a lot of fighting, but they actually got the bill passed by the u.s. congress in march of 1929. but because of the opposition of the southern democrats, all of the seed funding was stripped from the legislation. now, march of 1929 was not a good time for that to happen because what happens in october? the stock market crashes and the country enters the great depression. so this was approved by congress, but given no federal support and no federal funding. the depression hits and basically the project is doomed from the beginning. it doesn't get off the ground. so the people who are involved essentially pass away and all of their efforts are forgotten, forgotten b

and diversity and here locally. and we believe the contracts close to the same size with different offerings we can cover the work we need. >> i note it's as you said spread contract so it's not as if we're agreeing to pay $3 million to two vendors but it's on a work-order basis. may i request as we go and decide to go as we decide to spend more on the vendors, we seek the input and feedback of the unions particularly because they're the ones requesting this? so since we're doing it for their benefit and retention, i want to make sure they're finding these programs and providers effective and if not, we can adjust within the contract? >> yes, we can. >> very good. so a motion and second. all in favor, please say aye. opposed? that passes. thank you very much. acting director hsu we move on to item 12. >> clerk: presentation discussion regarding response acts of responsibilities and no members of the public have stated wanting to address the topic. >> i can't imagine why. >> members of the board i'm mark blake a city

"a private war" and "in extremis." it is not unusual for a british actor to go to hollywood and make it big. but jameela jamil is not exactly your paint-by-numbers actress. a brit of pakistani descent, incredibly honest about her life, from anorexia to sexual assault, nervous breakdown, and even she got hit by a car. she remains incredibly optimistic throughout. and now she's starring in the hit sitcom "the good place." jamil spoke with our alicia menendez about her unusual journey to the top. >> you have the type of story that if it were written as fiction would be unbelievable. you grow up without full hearing and yet somehow become a radio deejay. you accidentally become a host. you then accidentally become a columnist. you have then achieved fame in the u.k. and decided it's time to move to the u.s. to pursue a career in writ

then dicing it and splicing it and going over and over and over it. >> hold that thought, jim. we're going to come back to that very issue. >> i want to take -- i'm sorry. first of all, we don't make our living by putting things out of context. secondly, the reason that we cover him is because he is, by i think any measure, the single most powerful person on earth. and the decisions he makes have an impact, not only on this country, but throughout the world. and that's why we cover him the way we do. >> that's the case with every other president as well. >> right, but he's making much more dramatic changes and trying to upend the traditional order of the world. and so that's something that needs to be covered in a very aggressive way. he's challenged institutions in this country, including the courts as a matter of fact in a way that previous presidents have not. so it's really important that we cover what this president is doing and that we cover it with a lot of energy and in the way we're supposed to. it's what the first amendment calls for. why do we have a first amendment?

it has to go through notice and rulemaking and there is a back and forth there and they have landlords and compromises struck in this process. and in recent years and part of the reaction of the gridlock there has been an increasing use of informal guidance by agencies and sometimes you write these question-and-answer documents and they write letters and other things. but these don't have the force of law under the administrative procedure act and they don't get chevron deference and that was to get a skidmore deference and that says they have the power to persuade if it is long- standing or is it well reasoned or is it considering the considerations of the parties will latch on we found this document by relevant agency but the problem is these may just be a sentence or two that don't explain a lot and sometimes are rooted in the words of the statute. again, if you don't have these tools or statutory meaning, and agency said this, but if you start with the tools to walk through here is what necessary means in this provision in here what it means with reasonable and here's how tort law

it's complicated and more expensive and the shoring and whatever. and then the last thing is, -- so that might be some legislation that, you know, is after we see whether this is being taken up or not by a project sponsor and it's something that we would consider if they keep saying that it's too costly. and the other one is that we saw miss schoutis group c, and it keeps san francisco, a sense of neighborhood that it has, and because we're a city of neighborhoods i would hope when we do the revised r.d.g.s we can have a residential version too. they seem compatible and the u.d.g. land, but i think that more sensitive residential ones as well would be a good one. >> thank you, commissioner wolfram. >> thank you. i think this is a great document but i do want to sort of second commissioner hillis' concernor question about the potential projects that there was a historic resource and because of overriding consideration that it's being demolished but potentially retained. there seems to be a gap there. for example, the 450 o'farrell project had been ap

he was a national scholar in jamaica and he earned his way up and out and came to the united states anderkeley to study economics. my parents bed when they were active in the civil rights movement and it's an interesting story because as you know my brother graduated college when she was 19. >> what did i tell you. [laughter] so she said to my grandfather who was one of the freedom fighters my mother was the oldest of four children, and a girl obviously. she said to my grandparents she wanted to study science and go to what was considered to be one of the best schools and that was uc berkeley. my parents looked at her and said okay we will put you on a plane and you can go to a place you've never been at 19-years-old. this was 1959. so, this girl, this young woman got on a plane encouraged by her parents to go and pursue her dream. now the back story is that it was also fully expected she would go back and have an arranged marriage.

the gradations of influence and power and stature and how that plays out and how people are treated. i think what you're getting at, to me, turned out to be fairly significant for us and early interesting. >> so what we have been getting , number of cases, i think the trickle-down effect is taking place in terms of the willingness of people to speak out in these forums. we have heard a number of critical pretty horrific stories about major media organizations where local staff are fighting sexual harassment and downright attacks in somebody's major media organizations. there are all kinds of legal issues. they are not based in the country, so our organization that is headquartered in the uk , therefore in bureau is expected to follow the laws of the country where they're located so the legal battles that are playing out in places like, i think one was in tokyo, and another was in egypt, and in terms of stories that we will be hearing a lot more of, it is these complaints happening against major media organizations that are headquartered in the u.s. and in europe, who are not applying

and do we just pursue or -- our strategies of education and try and fight myths and conspiracy theories or do we pursue legal action? that's the debate we're having now and i think we'll see more debate about what legal measures do you take and this points right back to this core tension we still live with, the free speech-hate speech and what's the balancing line and what can you do? i come from charlottesville, where we've experienced this but before charlottesville, there was skokie and skokie was another moment where neo-nazis marched through skokie and the american public and all the lawyers had to decide what do we do and there was a divide there wo too where some prom meant lawyers fed -- felt like we defend the nazis and others felt that is crazy, can't we just ban these people? one clear lesson is there's a stillover effect and we can never assume that things just come from one source but we can never assume we can neatly address an issue without other things entering into play and complicating our efforts. so, on that >> thank you very much.

this border unites our families and our values and it promotes commerce and trade. the border has never been safer or more secure. el paso already has the wall, but we were safe long before it was constructed. the truth is that additional border barriers will not address the real challenges that we face. instead, i hope to work with my colleagues in this congress to achieve comprehensive immigration reform, address the root causes of migration, and value immigrants as critical to building our economy and our country. according to the pew research center, there were an estimated 10.7 million undocumented immigrants living in the united states in 2016. some came when they were small children seeking refuge in our country and today have limited protection under the tea ferd action for childhood arrivals program. others have been here for decades under temporary protected status. establishing businesses and cultivating deep roots in communities across the nation. it is unsafe for them to return home because of ongoing strife in their home countries. but this administrat

we have young and bright and vibrant women who are unapologetic and unafraid, and yes, they are difficult but it is because they are fighting for what they believe in. they are fighting for what is right, and they are sick of the way that politics works in back rooms, in secrecy. they are being upfront, and honest about who they are, and what they want to, and very are refusing to accept that it is impossible, that human beings can live with dignity, that human beings have enough food to eat, that human beings have a right to a home, that human beings have a right to equality --dash a quality education. aoc, i am a big fan of an follow-on social media. she is unapologetic about that, and so am i. we feel a sense of urgency to make change, and that is why i am running for this position, but it has been a hard process. it's been, quite frankly, a sexist process. i have been told, not based on my achievements, not based on my record, not based on the type of person i am and how i conduct myself as an elected official, because of my personality traits i've been told i'm too difficult , i've b

she was a cotton and wheat farmer. like, wow. all right. and lawyer and mom and, and, and. we all get this. tell us a little bit what it's like because we really don't talk about this enough. when you're running in an urban district or a suburban district, you know, there's often access to, you know, a number of donors. we know who they are. you go rural an it's a new ball game. tell us about it. >> it absolutely is. i was very honored to have more in-district donors than out of district something to the tune of about 80% but i also ran in the largest rural district in the united states that's not an entire state like wyoming. and, you know, i had so many people behind me, but it's a poor district. it's rural. and so we had to break into, you know, d.c. money, phoenix money, out of state money, and kind of get into what we called in our campaign those echo chambers. and hard dollars early made a lot of difference. my hard dollars came from my community. people that had never voted in a primary, people that registered to vote because i was running, people that had never writ

i could go on and on, and you see that and i like imagining justice. and so if we try to imagine what a world that no longer needed to rely on prisons, it would be a world that would be radically transformed. it would be a world -- it would be, i think, the world we want to imagine for the generations to come, and so, working on prison issues is not only about working on the prison itself. it's about working on all of those questions that are so responsible for the buildup of a situation where the u.s. has -- has one quarter of the entire planet's prison population, where one third of all of the women in the world who are in prison are in prison in the u.s. but beyond that, the u.s. has offered the institution of the prison to the world. it's -- the u.s. is a americn american-- i don't like to use the term american, because america is a hemisphere. i like to use it when i talk about south america and the caribbean and central america, b but, yeah, this is -- this is the institution that was given by this country to the world. and in places like africa

and raise and up lift their voices. in the years that i've been working here in the mission district, hill -- hillary ronan has always been just that. so i think more now than ever it is the most important and critical time to stand together, to be united and to have a leader who's been proven to have that vision, to have the ganas necessary to do what is wrong and stand for these communities so i highly suggest that you all vote for hillary ronan for board president. thank you. >> thank you for your comments. next speaker, please. >> my name is [inaudible] and i'm from chinatown. first of all i have to say that i admire hillary as a person. but i'm not here to speak for hillary as board president. a lot of people who couldn't get here today is because they're working. ok? and i think a lot of those people would support norman yee and i want to tell you something about norman yee. i've known him for more than 50 years. maybe 60. i used to think he was a really straight guy. a really kind of square guy, you know. an eagl

our suspect in that -- and this was a hit and run.t was a 24-year-old man, and he was driving a 2010 dodge charger, so we're looking to investigate and hopefully bring that case to justice, as well. we also had a hit and run at st. charles and palmetto in the taraval district. this was at 4:30 in the morning. the victim was walking in the crosswalk when they were struck by the suspect's vehicle. the suspect left the scene on the southbound 280, and we did have a witness that attempted to get the plate of a vehicle and actually gave us information that was helpful. the driver has been actually identified in this case, and was ultimately booked on felony hit and run charges. our victim in this case was a 64-year-old female. so again, to the public, we're asking that you be aware, number one. this was a hit and run, but be category a cognizant of your surroundings. we're still focused on vision zero and we're trying to eliminate these types of traffic collisions, and the public can hear by being vigilant, and the public can help by payin

and injury at, and india and brussels and london for he came to america whereby they asked him if you can tolerate brexit, you can go to washington dc. so please join me in welcoming his excellency ambassador daniel. >> thank you. you're very kind. thank you. it is good to be here. i always think that the longer you go on, the more memory and history kind of merge. i am this situation right now where my first really serious reflective memories are about 50 years old because i am in my early 60s and therefore i remember things that happened in the 60s. the early 60s not so much but by the mid-60s, certainly i was conscious of what was going on in the world. the reason for that was because in those days, watching the evening news was kind of a quasireligious experience for people. certainly in my family. my father was very interested in current affairs and the whole family had to sit down in the evening and watch the evening news and you cannot say a word between whenever it was six and 615 and then again in the evening later on. and also the one o'clock news on the radio was a big sort

as well and that is the planning and the construction and so with the licensed sponsor and that is the permit that is under appeal. >> so from 2016 and the property was bought and sold and there have been permits filed, revoked, and worked on. >> as far as i am aware, this permit that they have that is under appeal was the permit to fix everything and apart from the issues that were brought up which there is no other permits and this would go away and take over. >> that was a previous one -- >> that was the wrong permit. that is the problem. this is still issued, but this permit will take over from it and only one notice of violation that got amended and read out the language and i should have read the first one, and commissioner swig's comments about the excavation. >> trying to get to one permit and one n.o.v. >> one good permit. this is on its way to being there. and i think the neighbor would acknowledge that. and in answer to your -- i thought you were going to ask as well, no work taking place at the property that i am aware of. there is a stop work order. the building is sitting

vote and come back and take up the second panel. thank you. we'll be in adjournment. >> my apologies to the back and forth. welcome to the senate for the best laid plans sometimes go awry a because of the voting schedule. it's my pleasure to introduce the witnesses for the second panel. the first is the honorable earl wayne. he was a career ambassador of the diplomatic rank you can achieve. ambassador wayne previously served as ambassador to mexico from september 11th to july 2015. the deputy ambassador to afghanistan from 20 o 09 to 2011 and ambassador to argentina from 2006 to 2009. he's been recognize d for his leadership in the foreign servi service. our second witness is the honorable roger, the ambassador is currently a visiting fellow at the american enterprise institute. prior to that position he served as assistant secretary of state for western hemisphere affairs and as a u.s. ambassador to the organization of american states. he work ed with leaders to strengthen democracy and advance human rights, foster economic integration and pr

and we promised them. and it is in writing. if you give us this information about who you are, we will not share it with i.c.e., and we will not use that as a basis for deporting you. we promised you that. then this administration came in and broke that promise. broke that promise. and so what we have is bad role modeling, not to mention the fact that we have hundreds and thousands of young people like you who are presenting us with the promise of america and have to live in fear every day that you might be deported because an administration came in and broke america's promise to you. and it is wrong. and on your point about parents, it is wrong, and you are exactly right, for this administration to then trade the idea that, okay, well, maybe we'll let the kids stay but not their parents. so yet again we have an example of this administration willing to separate children from their parents, which is inhumane and contrary to who we are and the values we hold as americans. and so i will say to you that i stand with you. there are

how we bring people on and recruit them and train them and educate them and retain them and sign them and pay them in all of this is undergoing a transformation, when we started this, our personal systems are running in something like 57 different families of databases, which i don't know what a family of a databases but it's a lot and, none of those databases talked to one another. we had a year where it seemed like there was a great celebration of admiral grace hopper, yale renamed one of their colleges, the naval academy is building a cyber center, the grace hopper building, there was a very fitting nice tribute to admiral grace hopper going on. we still had databases that grace hopper wrote in our system and so we decided that the best tribute would be to get out of this 1950s technology, move it all up into a secure cloud environment to bring 21st- century technology and software to bear and so now the our sailors are going to do more and more of their pay, orders, transfers, all of that on the smart devices. so, they will get it qr code and just like your banking etc., you will
