, et cetera, contemplated the prevailing wage and the other provisions, et cetera. of course, that deal didn't move forward, but there was still obligations or still requirements for the event authority to spend money upgrading or making ready piers 30-32 for the team to arrive there. of course, what happened subsequent to that was that the port of san francisco took over those works. so, let me read out to everybody what the executive summary sees and workforce development plan. so, before august -- >> so, before august 14th of last year, had you had any discussion of prevailing wage? ~ >> yes, we had. >> seems like it was a discussion of developing piers 30-32, that was well before august 14. so it seems like there had been some time to anticipate there would be a need to -- for subcontractors about prevailing wage requirements and about what prevailing wage would be. it seemed like that had never happened. ~ >> that is incorrect. the executive summary says the city acknowledges that the event activities are not public works. all improvements subject to the laws a

and obesity is linked to diabetes, et cetera, et cetera. and linked to workers missing more days and being unhealthier, and cvs can do whatever they want to to raise that. look, i'm sure that cvs, i'm sure they have a drug policy, also. that's an invasion of privacy, but everyone seems fine with that. >> brenda: that's illegal. it's not illegal to be fat. >> what's that? >> drugs are illegal. it's not illegal to be fat. >> it's not illegal to come in drunk either every day, but i'm sure you can't do that at cvs. >> it's not illegal to smoke. >> brenda: go ahead. >> it's not illegal to smoke either. in the not too distant future a third of all medicare costs are going to be related to diabetes, which is mostly preventible. there's nothing wrong with doing this at all. >> brenda: john, john, you go ahead and take that on. >> look, what toby was talking about, is the wrong way going about it. weighing a person is the most outdated way to measure their health and to go through some type of body mass index, and weighing somebody to the mos outda

i'm all in favor of unions, et cetera. and around things like benefits they should absolutely be able to bargain those things at the table. but when it comes out long kids should be in school, that in my mind should not be a bargaining chip. >> it death feels like there's more chapters being written in your incredible story, this book that is receiving incredible reviews. tell us where studentsfirst is going and what's next for the organization. what you've done in two years has been impressive according to many, many folks. >> thank you. so i started studentsfirst a few years ago when i left d.c. with the idea that if you looked at what was happening in public education over the last two to three decades, you'd see that it was largely driven by special interest groups, whether textbook manufacturers, teachers unions, testing companies. these organizations have tremendous resources and they use those resources to put a lot of influence on the political process to get those policies and regulations in place that benefit the

protests in the street, et cetera, et cetera.rying to grab those funds above 100,000 euros and the rub here is that there's at love russian offshore money in cyprus. that's what the authorities are trying to grab. >> parking money. >> i'm getting very nervous. >> to pick up on what you're saying about what you call the tax in that first proposal, a lot of the critics said it is not a tax. that goes to the core of this. the entire financial system is based on trust. the average consumer isn't worried as much about bond yields. the trust when they put money into the bank, they can take it back out. how much did the floating of that proposal cut against that trust? i think hugely. i wrote a column about this this week. i think if you're an italian or a spaniard or in another potentially beleaguered european country, you're worried. i would potentially be thinking of going to the bank if i lived in those countries. it underscores that three years on from the beginning of the european debt crisis, nothing has changed. we could have wr

, et cetera. not right. the supervisor of district 6 cannot do it alone. she needs the help of all of you. and if you [speaker not understood], you will see that [speaker not understood]. so, the time is more than ripe. stop all the talking. stop all the bickering among yourselves and get up and do some work for seniors who have [speaker not understood] in this chambers. >> thank you. next speaker. >>> good afternoon, supervisors. i appreciate the opportunity to address you this afternoon. my name is dr. connor [speaker not understood]. i'm here to speak about the ordinance that supervisor campos has introduced today regarding planned parenthood. i've been present on the sidewalk in front of planned parenthood for the last 39 days, from 8:00 a.m. until 8:00 p.m., and i'm very shocked to hear all of the harsh words that supervisor campos has given you today. the sidewalk in front of planned parenthood is very peaceful. we've been praying there and we help the women. and i'm afraid that this ordinan

you cannot come to my party talking about a bunch of mythical crap, et cetera, et cetera. i don't deal with it. in my or decision i teach you basic application. quantitative increase, quantitative decrease. remember, on the mathematical person. i go got all a's in math the otr architectural design, engine and design. after i come from. i come from a high-tech framework so i'm just the mathematics of what we had to do. talk block, black panther party to do so but even the most illegitimate guy, i could make them understand the application of quantitative increase, quantitative decrease causes a quantitative need for change. >> i have to say there's a lot of question. we're not able to get to all of them, but the good news is i read them into a of the majority of your questions are actually answered in the book. so, therefore, i don't feel really bad that we haven't gotten to all of them because the book is so thorough in terms of the questions that you guys opposed. so the last question i think gets that many of the questions that were presented is, could you speak about th

we're here to be collaborative, et cetera, et cetera. >> i haven't heard them say that. maybe they say it to you. >> let me ask you about one issue that's out there, which is the continuing resolution to keep the government in business. you voted against it because you worry that it includes these automatic budget cuts. >> sequester. >> sequester. that it doesn't help the domestic side where the cuts are just sort of across the board. if the senate should include some budget bills that dealt with, well maybe we can save this program and cut more from this program, could you see your way clear to approving the cr at the current levels, which is to say including the automatic budget cut up top line? >> well, i'm as concerned about the approach to defense as well as to our domestic budget. we certainly are not going to have the government shut down. when we weigh the equities of the value of the bill, it's almost impossible for it not to be a better bill than what is written by the house republicans. but they will have to send a bipartisan bill in order to get the 60 votes.

et cetera. you can't accelerate those processes. and, so, the problem we were faced with was the final one of those documents was only signed on the 14th of august. the first event had taken place. and, so, if i could offer a suggestion, it would be that the conciliatory nature and the working collaborative nature of how we are proposing to work -- move forward should have been engaged through the process back in august, september of last year. that would have been my suggestion. >> so, there's a lot of timing issues seems like. >> absolutely. >> okay. you know, i was president here on the board when the deal was signed. i think which is neither here nor there, but it always struck me that this was done very rapidly and people were, you know, learning to walk on the fly, if you will, throughout this agreement. i'm thinking maybe that's the nature of hosting an event the first time in san francisco, things happen so quickly. i'm trying to see how we do it better going forward. >> learning from this, how do you hold a event of this ma

, et cetera, and do it on a rational basis there is nothing wrong. the fact that people are stealing the money. >> eric, ever done anything on a rational bases in d.c. >> they built the roads in the first place. >> ideally, they protect our rights, they don't run roads and sally pays a horrific picture of poor people not affording the toll. that's not the case in privatized roads, that's not the case throughout europe where this is practiced. i'll tell you it's not just people who will pay the tolls. it will be investors. igs, you can buy -- let me say, invests in public infrastructure all over the world. government doesn't need trun road, the bridges and tax us to pay for it. >> if you look at the states that charge the highest gas tax they are the most broke. connecticut, california, new york, illinois, highest s tax, wasting your money. >> show me real shovel ready. all i see is shoveling you know what. >> leave it there. coming up, guilty of misusing taxpayer money. justice for these who gave themselves outrageous salaries. why are some saying ta

, et cetera. that may be helpful for judges sentencing to drug courts for addiction problem instead of prison for a long period of time. the primary problem is one of addiction and treatment of remediation of that and the subsequent behavioral problems and other things is probably far more cost-effective and good for that person than simply sentencing them to prison time. and so i think the neuroscience helps to educate and change our ways that we understand drugs and drug addiction. >> another question is have you ever been allowed to testify regarding i.q. in a hearing or a trial using your program? >> yes, i just did that this weekend. so i testified this morning. i do know that -- so the atkins case was actually argued by a professor at the university of new mexico and he is constantly barraged by what's the best way to assess i.q., especially when you have these different tests and different measures, et cetera. i.q. is one of the most well studied things in psychology. so taking a brain scan

[telephone rings] what? man: did you enjoy the movie? who is this? it's vincent. of "vincent's picks"? the same. jerry: he called you? he must've gotten my number off the computer. we ended up talking for, like, 2 hours. to a guy you've never met? your screening process is getting ever more rigorous. i'm trying to meet him. he's never at the video store. they said he sets his own hours. a little help? hey. yeah. thank you. oh, my god. that guy is terrible. hey, how come we played at this crummy place instead of your club? george used up all my guest passes already. oh. come on. here you go. milos? oh, hey. how yo

cell phone, and people do if you're really trying to save some of your precious energy minutes, et ceteras not working as well as it normally does, it is helpful to have a message board that you can get information to other people. and, so, that's what we're showing here. you can see people are going to be looking for their pets. they're going to be looking for rides. people are going to need to be sharing resources a much as they possibly can. another thing that you can see here is they're going to need to be fair tools and some of the things that people are going to need in order to be able to stay safer within their homes. so, we're just showing sort of a gesture to that with all these different tools here. but then also tarps, people are going to need to cover their windows if their windows are cracked, if their roofs are broken. so, ideally, the city would be able to know where all these neighborhood centers are and help deliver some of these supplies. >> they could come from a neighbor, maybe not. thank you so much for allowing us to come in and share this wonderful exhibit. and tha

there is an issue about rental agreements, et cetera, et cetera. i found yesterday after hours of looking for an original statement by joseph romo who was the father of the family that owned the property who is now deceased and his -- he basically rented me the property. what i have is a 20-year old piece of paper that basically lays down the [speaker not understood] who to mail it to, et cetera. i have copies of it which i can give to you and put it on the overhead projector. >> go ahead and put it on the overhead, please. >>> it was originally a white piece of paper. you can see now it's a yellow piece of paper because of its age. and basically i've lived in san francisco for 40 year. i've never had a rental agreement that detailed every square foot of the building, what was mine and what isn't mine and it just -- the laundry room was mine. the exit leading downstairs is mine. as i note in 1994 or '95, we had two fires in one week in this building, the other joint property, 12 40, and 1244 treat which if i hadn't called the fire department, ~ at

that i think of when i hear, you know, rosemary's report on the number of complaints received, et cetera, is that i really think that they are under reported. i don't think that that's an accurate picture of the number of complaints that tenants actually have. nor are we necessarily capturing the fact -- i guess the time frame for getting the repairs responded to. so, we may know when people initially call, you know. we're doing that within the department in term of the calls that you get. but what i'm saying is outside of those calls, we also don't have a sense of, you know, are these being taken care of in a way that maybe dbi would have a role in jumping in and trying to, you know, speed up the repair abatement, et cetera. and, so, i think there is a lot of confusion at the housing authority properties right now about how to report repairs. some people are still trying to go through 311 because that's what they were instructed to do awhile back. others are reporting directly to management. some people tell the repair guy. well, heout in the unit, try and get things fixed that way. oth

cell phone, and people do if you're really trying to save some of your precious energy minutes, et ceterat working as well as it normally does, it is helpful to have a message board that you can get in

basically we're going to be like a hub where people can come to get services, help, information, et ceteraat you see here on this table are a whole variety of did you ever rent things from tools, some walki-talkies. this helps people know what is going on in their neighborhood. over here you have a whole variety of water and canned goods. we're really hoping that people will stock up for themselves at least for the first 72 hours if not more. i know that i have a ton of canned food and other sorts of things such as water within my own home. and everybody should, but there's going to come a time where people are going to end up running out and needing more. so, that's what we've got right here. >> so, this neighborhood support center, this doesn't look to be a major city sponsored fully stocked space. it can be a small commercial space, even somebody's garage as long as they have the information, a guide of information, who to call for what, communications equipment, some power, have a generator. >> that's right. >> thinking of lights and charge your cell phones and so on. and probably be o

they get corrupted by the system, et cetera.to go on hannity's show and go you're so right! >> more than people like j.c. watts, what made me a little mad is places like politico or washington post wrote the headlines as if ellison exploded, lost his cool, but how else are you supposed to talk to somebody like sean hannity? facts don't matter with him. i was actually really rooting for ellison for going at it all the way. i love it. cenk: one quick thing about that. oh the 6 trillion, but bush handed him $10 trillion deficit which he never talks about. anyway but those are facts. we'll come back with one final important point. when many soles pass through the most trodden areas of your home your vacuum doesn't always pick up what's left behind. only the resolve easy clean system has foam power to stop dirt in its tracks. it penetrates deep within your carpet removing 3 times more dirt than vacuuming alone. leaving the busiest areas of your carpets, truly fresh and clean. the resolve easy clean system. don't just vacuum clean. re

, et cetera. but they also had a very similar botic relationship with chavez, those who came before and represented the opposition they had an opportunity to experiment with local governance and movements. >> the thing that facilitated this -- when you read accounts of chavez, i was saying this before on the air, even neutral accounts, when you read even supposed neutral little, therac fact he used revenue of oil for those that supported education and health care, like that was cheating. his popularity was somehow not on the up and up because part of it was just the basic function of redistributing oil revenue to the poor. that strikings me as what a government should do. >> as norwegians and do -- >> and alaskans. >> sovereign wealth funds and so on. incidentally, everyone goes on about chavez here. no one is looking at socialism -- there's something special about this. it is that bluster, it is that anti-americanism or is it? i would say this about the oil. the economists had an interesting char

is that the right application, et cetera, et cetera. >> those are the big hitters, but i would add one more thing system oriented imacs next jan. righthanders still too many delays using too much kerosene on the ground or in the air. i came in yesterday to dulles and my flight plan was extended 10 minute for spacing. as we moved to next jan and not onboard systems, which we work on right now that are brought to you by in and out and flight management systems, you cannot trajectory management the controllers and airplane can use or require time of arrival to basically paid that time in the year many minutes now, have a continuous decline so you're a glider at that point. our estimate is you can save a thousand pound is fuel per flight just by getting this for preferential rallies. this is the multifaceted answer to a question that's important to this industry. >> i think you're right if we can get nextgen in place and get consistent funding an application and begin to use technology to her today. >> i shouldn't be a problem to what congress is working right now. we can count on that hap

adobe and zinger, et cetera. clearly 100' limitation along townsend is not consistent with the scale of the area. lot merger restrictions are more appropriate for neighborhood-commercial distributes which explain where the existing restrictions only apply to haves and national council on disability on hayes, church street and market street. we have reviewed our proposed changes with jim nicko, toby levy and planning staff corey teague and none of them have any objections to what we're proposing. so we hope you include them as an amendment to the plan. lastly, i would like to introduce dennis flaherty, the owner of 520 townsend. >> thank you. we are introducing -- we're going modify the restriction on the lot merger today. >> terrific. thank you very much. >> i'm dennis flaherty and i have owned the property for over 35 years. i occupied it many years running my own business and my son presently has an office there. in getting your amendment, we realize that we have talked to a neighbor who has a 50' parcel. ours

et cetera, et cetera. now, you know, maybe jonas thinks well, that doesn't matter.ook, all of tse negative things matter and people say, oh, maybe ibm is a crummy company and we shouldn't buy the computers and-- >> i would say not relating to the company. behaving badly online and look at the women and-- >> and i went out last night and i got drunk. you're allowed to say that online. the whole point, jonas is talking about the company. >> brenda: the company. and julian, weigh in here. >> jonass usual makes the right distinction here, things that employers should worry about. >> brenda: he's not the-- >> there are things like the use of company equipment, the publication of things that are very sensitive to the company, and privacy issues, those things companies should have very clear moves about and then there's other things silly things you post on social media websites that are much less so it in the company's interests, but-- >> give me an example of one things that wouldn't hurt. i want to hear. >> what somebody was doing at a war one night. >> that's not about

they overreach, the weather turns against them, et cetera, et cetera, and they collapse. not one or two, every civilization collapsed. and now we have a global civilization with you we have this amazing gifts of 250 years of accumulated sunshine. enormous energy. and everything you say about the optimists hinges on this little window of 250 years. >> rose: so the story of civilization over the last 200 years is the development of oil & gas. >> yes. >> rose: to fuel our economy, to fuel our automobiles, our planes, our-- everything. >> everything. >> rose: everything, and every wave of technology has been hugely energy intensive, coal and steam engines. oil and cars and refrigerators and air conditioning. and ipads. we all run around wondering whether our ipad and iphone is charged. they're huge absorbers of energy. however, i am an optimist in two ways. >> rose: i'm waiting. >> okay. we have two gifts that none of those hundreds of failed civilizations had, that might, it's quite undeserved, incidentally, it is pure luck, might get us off the hook. and one of them is the

we have the psaammogram, et cetera. but none are definitive. none are specific on the test. the u.s. task force came up and said, don't get a psa until you're 50, don't get a mammogram. there's aa lot of debate. now finally by getting these genetic markers we're able to really narrow down and dr. siegel and many doctors out there can say, listen, you don't even need to get psa because the risk of getting prostate cancer is so low based on genetic markers. this will change the way we practice, the way we operate on patients and the treatment choices. >> remember that it's the art of medicine we're talking about. >> she's pushing you into the corner. >> i won't be political. i will answer. it. the art of medicine is stake taking every cool and going patient to patient. this is the problem with the guidelines. it's not whether you have this or that. tess a good doctor and good patient figuring out together, this is about more information. i think within the next three to five years -- that's what the authors of the studies are saying -- you'll be able to go to your doctornd get

volunteer director has been wonderful in signing up folks from larkin street youth, one work, et cetera. through making contacts with people with various ethnic backgrounds, cultures and disabilities, as well as the elderly, i think about being sensitive to these people's differences. it is also about coming to understand their philosophy about the trees in their lives and the role that trees play in this city. some of the considerations include addressing tree issues for those whose first language is not english and making them feel more comfortable approaching the council. i want to ensure that the community seat has a real community person on the council to represent their interests. it is a diversity and unique flavors of all of our neighborhoods that make this city special and different areas have their own special charm. it is about being inclusive of all their opinions rather than being exclusive. i have volunteered on the japantown organizing committee and have provided my personal input on some of the landscaping and greening issues for japantown. i have worked collaboratively
