the late 70s to his book, "the century" co-authored by todd brewster. the book uses color photography and the stories of ordinary people to describe the past 100 years. it is about an hour. c-span: peter jennings, author of--or i should say co-author of "the century"... >> guest: emphasis on 'co.' c-span: ...with todd brewster. you--you ask us in the beginning to read this like a novel. why? >> guest: well, i suppose what we really want to do at the beginning is emphasize this is a journalist's history, this is a journalist's work, not an historian's work. todd and i like to say no historian in their right mind would take on 100 years in 600 pages, if the period at all. i think because we want you to pick it up and read it anywhere. i don't want you to think of it as encyclopedic. i want people to think that it's experiential; that you can pick it up anywhere, and you can look at a picture or you can read a caption. the captions are quite long, as i think you've seen--and you can just take off. and it's driven by people stories. todd is the real archite

>> jamie brewster. supervisor kim: thank you. supervisor chu: next speaker, please. >> good afternoon, supervisors. nice to see everyone who has come from the puc, the go solar program, and all the hetch hetchy people. my name is james patrick carroll and i made democratic candidate for mayor. this last year in san francisco, we experienced over 50 inches of rain and a record- breaking snowpack in the sierra. there's more water available now than ever. i think it would be an excellent idea to turn this. into a win-win. yesterday, while walking through the tenderloin, i noticed that shop owners were spreading their buildings with high pressure spray water to keep the crack cocaine dealers from being anywhere near their block. i dithought this was a very intelligent way to keep them away from the stores. i heard the puc director commented that there was $1.3 million in profit available from the go solar program. he also mentioned that there's a $25 million available in a capital development program, which he, for some arbitrary rea

francisco florez, anthony brewster, rohaun finley, nima hawkings, tremen larakin, pauline lookinbill. if you wish to speak on behalf of the appellant, please stepped up. >> i am david pillpell. i want to speak in support of the appellants. the question is whether further environmental review is required. i believe that for this project as i understand it there may be direct, indirect, and cumulative impacts from this project. i do not believe they have been adequately assessed. i understand the city if approval discretion is limited under the communications act of 1996. as such, i believe an eir is the best place to explore the project impacts, alternatives, and the traditions. to that end, i believe it is inappropriate to reject the cadex and require further environmental review. you would need to look at all the various aspects of street furniture and enforcement in the public realm, whether they be good bed or otherwise, whether they are bicycle racks, trees, or all kinds of things on the sidewalk. when you take these things together, the cumulative impact is an impediment, that ne
