and i could be convinced to change it. but i think that in a matter where we are letting it for the first and the first instance, ten is not over kill. >> okay. >> so, 2 a and 2 b we are just going to move on past those. >> so we are going to move past section two. and i would propose that we change the business days in two a but not adopt the rest of two a or 2 b. two a already has five business days, so there is no amendment there. >> okay. >> so we do not need to do anything on that one,; is that correct?? >> right. >> for the time being, we are going to leave those particular regs alone, correct? >> all right. >> and so there is no decision point, a or b? >> okay. >>; is that correct?? >> that is what i am hearing. >> and i agree. >> do we need a motion to that effect? >> no. >> okay. >> and the next decision point? >> decision point 3a deals with with drawals of complaints and so under chapter two, if a complaint is withdrawn, the commission takes no further action under chapter three, where they conduct a investigati

the climate change one of the reasons for looking in the arctic is that climate change is happening there already. the climate models that we have for the earth suggests that climate change will happen to the largest extent in the polls especially in the arctic over land we expect surface temperatures there to warm by as much as eight to ten degrees celsius by the end of the century and also we expect that the sensitivity of the ecosystems and the other natural earth systems in the arctic to be highly sensitive to these changes so if you think about it the arctic acts much as the canary in the coal mine for the rest of the earth system you have change taking place there first you have change taking place there to the largest extent and you also have systems there that have the highest sensitivities to these changes this is one of the reasons that led us to pick the arctic as the experimental domain for car could you tell us what a tipping point is and if you see any tipping points potentially being reached in the arctic region and what the significance of that might be. certainly. tipping

projects that change after any manner will require a new hearing. so that concludes our recommendations of the e r o is here if you have any questions otherwise move into public comment >> i have a question for ms. rogers. so i can fully understand that. so when a project is submitted for an exemption the drawings tend to be pretty dpraefk with the preliminary set of drawings i might submit >> i would like to deter to the folks responsible for that portion. >> okay. >> so i'm just trying to understand the procedural process. if you're submitting let's say for example, your republican vavt a house and for your exemption you might have a preliminary set of drawings. if it's a project that requires the same section it's essentially the same set of drawings that would be needed. we need as much information as possible. so if it's a historic repeal evaluation if it's large we may need additional information but if it's small we wouldn't need detailed drawings. often it's quite early fairly conceptual >> yes, it needs to be done ann at an early stage. >>

art of that is health cost changes will stop part of that is policy changes. still, we are at a high level of debt relative to gdp. that is given our historical experience and the historical experience of most countries. under current law, debt will rise. one of our scenarios was this $2 trillion of deficit reduction phased in over the coming decade. for 10 years, there was a $2 trillion deficit reduction. we set the reduction outside that window at the same percentage of gdp that it reaches in 2023. that is an arbitrary decision. we are trying to look at orders of magnitude. that policy leads to debt in 2038 that is below the current share of gdp. as it turned out, this $4 trillion policy -- these are numbers we picked back in the spring. we are not trying to suggest a particular target that congress should have. it is a matter of judgment. the $4 trillion policy pushes debt by 2038 down to just below historical average, 38%, a little bit below its mark in 2007 of 35%. $2 trillion would keep debt close to its current high share of gdp. $4 trillion would push

and if the change took 14 pages, how long was the entire agreement. i really think that the roll of the investigator in this matter, should have been to put himself in the position of the lawyer, who is going to decide whether it was substan ard or not. the task force had two lawyers, and i believe at the time that this case was heard. and neither of them were business lawyers. and so the whole issue, what is the subnative change to a long, long, development agreement, is not something that could be handled off the cuff. push >> and i think without that, in this separate investigation. what the law says and what the agreement provided for. and what the changes to that are two different issues. >> >> any further comment, on this matter? >> if not, commissioners. and any further questions or comments from you? >> well, i have got to say that i am... disturbed with the idea that the amendments could be introduced without the public having an opportunity to see them and digest them, and whether 13 or 14 pages of or should be deemed as non-subnative and it

we're going to have to change. on monday morning, these 12 men and women woke up like they did every day. they left home and they headed off to work. gerald read's wife cathy said, "see you tonight for dinner." and john johnson looked at his wife judy and said what he always said whenever they parted, "goodbye beautiful. i love you so much." in our sleep, pain which cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart, until in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom through the awful grace of god." what robert kennedy understood, what dr. king understood, what all our great leaders have always understood, is that wisdom does not come from tragedy alone or from some sense of resignation in the fallibility of man. wisdom comes through the recognition that tragedies such as this are not inevitable, and that we possess the ability to act and to change, and to spare others the pain that drops upon our hearts. so in our grief, let us seek that grace. let us find that wisdom. and in doing so, let us truly honor these

it's administrative changes to help stream line enforcement and in changes to the code due to proposition e which is the new gross receipts tax and stream line for the entrance yet occupancy and the property tax. just to go over this document quick lau e and the highlights for business registration feechlts prop e deleted the registration and the board of supervisors. so prior to may 31, the roofers in addition are required to post a $30 tag on their automobiles while they are on-site working and this will eliminate the tag requirement and will have a copy of their registration certificate in their vehicle. we are recommending the penalty structure for our taxes and the registration fee. currently the failure to file personality for the business registration fee is the doubling of the fee which when we had these was not a huge fee, but now that under proposition e, fees will be going up to $35. so we are recommending a pement of $100 and also following the penalty structure for all other delinquent taxes for the first 30 days it's percent of the delinquency adding the additional 5 percent

and what we are changing is simply that you will file and remit monthly. instead of having the quarterly filing, and that frees up the other two payments and this is, and this is partnered with our new on-line form for parking tax filing as well as our existing hotel tax form that is also a little more complex and we have the district added on and this is going to be stream lining the tax reporting for both hotel and park operators and it will make it easier for our tax collection, but we also hope that it is not quite as confusing for folks because instead of doing this, a month that i just remit or do i file and remit every month and then you don't have to worry about the true. and then we are also proposing that the date, that the revenue control equipment, fee this is the gate on a parking lot or the finance that tracks how long you have been in there, the fee that we collect for inspecting those, be due on december f, 31, rather than january, 31, the main change for this is that the certificate of authority that you are required to get every year is t

11 hoffman and changes to the 37 and 35. again, if there's a balance in terms of the number of people that can be served i think the environmental impact is okay. and it's close to the end of what i'm going to say i hope the mta carries on after this document has been approved. >> thank you. >> good afternoon, commissioners. i'm daniel. i'm speaking for myself today normally we serve to unit neighborhoods but i'm findings that some of the mta proposals are pitting us against each other. that's having an environmental effe effect. i live on barker street and my neighborhood has hospitals and churches and schools and hills so steep that cars are not allowed and sidewalks are stairways. the proposal would just take the 3 jackson and make it evaporate leaving cars to pick up the slack. my great grandparents took the jackson streetcar and a hundred years later we have those growing lines of cars iding in front of the schools and that's because the pacific line as eliminated decades ago and the jackson is so inreliable commissione

you don't have to make a big change, just the smallest change, just the smallest change.ife when i found out that my decisions had created my circumstances. if you think somebody else has created your circumstances you can become bitter, vindictive retalatory, but the moment you say, my decision have created my circumstances, i can change my decisions. the screpture that really is so big to me, proverbs 4:7, i live by it and teach from it everyday of my life. it is everything. it is quite simple, "wisdom is the principle thing." the reason he said that, everything else you want comes through wisdom. wisdom produces longevity. wisdom produces favor. wisdom produces wealth. everything we're pursuing is the product of wisdom. if you think you have a financial problem, you want to change your job. if you think you have a marriage problem, change your mate. when you recognize you have a wisdom problem you change your focus. that makes all the difference in the world. proverbs 4:7, wisdom is the principle thing. a lot of what i'm teaching is found in this book "the three most i

done to accepting the consensus that the world is changing and that climate is changing so now we needo move onto a conversation about what we are going to do about that and what that means. to the extent that the press can help with is towards that conversation and the questions that it asks in the stories that it writes i think is going to be what is important and the goal. >> host: i have trouble with this all the time. going back to the common ground question for a little bit one of simon's people that he admired was a person that talked about pollutions of commodity and obviously cap-and-trade is a market the system. i know simon isn't living but did he have a position on that in terms of basically putting a price on pollution? that seems like something that conservatives back in the day would have supported. sulfur dioxide trading as a public idea. i know people on the hill would say the waxman-markey bill corrupted the market in ways and that is why they opposed that legislation but would simon have a standing mayor to pricing carbon is a solution to this problem? >> guest: well

if i can change, anybody can change. if you're sitting out there now, and you've got a 6-year-old or an 8-year-old or a 14-year-old who's having terrible behavior problems, who's not listening and who's not learning, i want to give you some hope. people change, but they have to know how to change, and that's where the total transformation program comes in. look, parents need help. you're not born knowing how to deal with behavior problems. the total transformation program is a step-by-step program that shows you exactly how to change your child's behavior, and it works. it's how i changed my life, and it's how i've been helping kids get back on the right track for over 30 years. >> what do you see as the most common problem in children? >> the most common problem with children is that they can't solve problems, that life's problems come up-- whether that problem is going to your room, whether that problem is talking in the right tone, whether that problem is not hitting your brother or sister, whether that problem is doi

each one teach one, each one reach one, we change policy, we change practices, we change values. there is a map, there is a way we can do it. we're already doing it, let's not lose sight of it, but we have to be more focused, more clear and more collaborative and not forget to really empower our children. they are our best hope for changing the world. >> hello, my name is chris bridges. i'm grappling with trying to address several things that i've heard during the course of this program. i'll try to keep it as brief as possible. it's more of a statement than a question. a lot of people have mentioned power, the power balance between people and the trauma that people can bring in from outside and the significance of being traumatized and traumatizing other people and it also talked about restoretive justice being a model. i know we're in a room filled with district attorneys and police officers, law enforcement. i'm curious what role law enforcement can play in restoretive justice, what can be imparted as groups of people who may or may not be connected with the trauma. once you a

the example of changing it to a pool hall is a little extreme. i can understand that we would probably not want to see this change of use being passed, but i'm more concerned about what kind of controls and i assume the controls would be the planning commission, but then there is board of supervisors who would make the decisions. >> that's correct. >> that's my main concern in regards to this because i'm also trying to ask liberty -- a little bit about this incentivizing project. we have asked a lot from san francisco and i don't want to see this used an n a wedge to fast some project because it has higher qualities as you put into this plan. i think you have to look at a project for a lot of different reasons and because i talked about the patient body that these institutions have that may not be san francisco residents. we want them here. they bring jobs, they bring revenues. there is good reason for them to being here and they deserve some treatment over the plan. i'm not sure i like the prioritization of putting fast track projects that you a

we have various cycles in the thesphere, the sun changes, ocean changes. expect to see these sorts of slowdowns. we expect this excel versions as well. if you look at the 15-year period ending in 2006, the rate of warming was almost double the previous 15 years and nobody paid attention to that. >> was colorado climate change, the 1000 year flood? >> we can say that sorts of events become more common. you load the dice in favor of more extreme precipitation events. you rule double sixes more often and maybe now and again you control a 13. >> our meteorologist ever going to start flashing those words " climate change" as often as they flash "severe weather"? >> they are beholden to what the producer says. some are on board and many are not. >> if i could jump in, there's a lesson from history in the united states that is helpful. if you look at when the scientific evidence around tobacco was clear and the contents -- and scared that tobacco is bad for you, there was still a very powerful lobby of scientists from the tobacco industry to actually contaminate

the threat that climate change represents.e to, very unfortunately corporate interests front groupings tied to the fossil fuel industry, paid advocates of the fossil fuel industry have done everything they can to confuse the public and policymakers about the reality of the problem. so unfortunately as a result of that, we have a congress right now that is controlled, at least in the house of representatives, by climate change deniers. the chair of the house science committee is a climate change denyer. what that leaves is the opportunity or executive actions we've seen by the president recently. more stringent rules of epa, coal power plant emissions. so hopefully. >> go ahead. finish your thought. hopefully what? >> so hopefully, you know, we will see a change in the thinking within our congress. there is some sign that there are congressional republicans who do want to have a serious discussion about this problem. a former republican from south carolina he's heading up an effort to find free market-driven can have solutions

and societies can adapt and change in many ways. and if you take that it leaves with the question, even if we can is this the kind of world we want to live and? said drought, a sea level rise they are in danger by the team tuesday and we do have a choice. it is the fundamental question that we face today. if we look at the inability of paul erlich and julian simon with the second that they don't bring these two ideas together to make them whole. that ultimately is around the question of social values and joyce -- joyce. >> host: is anybody bridging that gap as the observer of obama and his policies it seems that he is trying to make that case. his rhetoric on climate has not changed and he is talking a little bit about loral's and the responsibility to future generations personal conviction because of his daughters. what really but it will take to get something happening. in to persuade of the nature of climate change with growing economic opportunities in new businesses wine in new in setting the framework of values is a good way.

the changes and the technical changes to the committee? >> i am sorry could you repeat that question? >> if you had time to make those changes, produce the document and then there was still time to get it to the committee, how does that happen? >> is there... what if there were an opportunity to do that, would that have happened and is that the typical protocol. >> if i believe correctly, as a example for the shipyard project which was approved by the board of supervisors, around the time that i started working for president chiu, there were, i don't know, about dozens but over ten changes to the agreement proposed at the full board and some of them were, and accepted at the full board and no further public comment was given. and some of them were rejected by the board. but there was no, in a similar sense to this instance there was no presumption that there was additional public comment based on changes to an underlying agreement and all of the over all arching principals and concepts of the agreement remained. i think that there are cons

says with 95% certainty that climate change is real and man made. why are why down playing some well established source easy of energy. >>> also, when obamacare on the horizon, who might receive benefits and who might be hurt most financially. >>> plus, as more and more being americans become. atheist, how does that stem the tide? >> as al jazeera's courtney ceely -- keely reports, the problem could be catastrophic. >> hundreds of climate change activists protest in stockholm. >> we are frustrated and upset about how our politicians are not acting the way the science says. >>> the u.n.'s intragovernmental panel on climate change predicts worldwide temperatures could rise between 2.8 to 8.5° by the end of the century. this despite data from the last 15 years that shows a slow down in global warning. warming. the panel stress that the global warming is indisputable. do not always reflect global trends. they are now as certain that global warming is man made as they are that smoking kills. >> the report should be awake-up call. >> multiple lines of evi

so the additional changes are comments that we received. many of them related to recommendation 3.1 about increasing access to appropriate care to san francisco vulnerable population. to address several comments we made several changes ; some of them more substantial than others. changes are outlined in more detail in the memo you received in advance. the first one relates to health scare services. the expansion of the guideline to support an assessment of the density of services provided within an area was appropriate and we agreed. the analysis within the health care services master plan points to this also. while it's important to increase access to care and san francisco's low income and under served neighborhoods, it's also important to see how much care is provided in those neighborhoods. while china town and bay view hunters point are considered low income area with high need for medical services, there are more services already existing in china town than the bay view. so that should be factored into the consistency determination. t

and the time change. >> okay. >> and that has not hit my desk yet. but we can do the research and you can back it on that. >> and do you want to respond to that? >> i am steve humfrey and i believe that the tee is anticipating the width of the sidewalk that is going to effect the alignment and that lock, and that is worked on right now, is that awss that has already been constructed >> and it is the last block that remains to be installed. from the main street on up. and okay. >> could you talk a little bit about more what the change is? >> i don't have all of the details on the specifics, but they intend to increase the width of the sidewalk. and the standards in the city, to keep the wws, on the streets and not on the sidewalk and so the current designed alignment of the awss is not in the sidewalk, but, the sidewalk is widened it would be. and the delays are being worked out. >> and is there a request to to widen it for pedestrian reasons or another reason? >> i think that it is the transit district plan. >> it is part of the plan, director. they

changed. even though i am the one who is opposing to this project i did not get proper notification, how are all of my neighbors were informed about the date in change and time? the previously, the owner indicated that back in 2011, i have not participate in the meeting because i already have a previous commitment at that time. i have make a telephone call to the person who draw up the plan and indicated that i am object the to the project. previously, the chairman indicated that he supported the project owner by, you know, like increasing the value of his own house, so that he could live there healthily but yet he shortcut the people that are at least three houses behind and sacrifice their view and so if that is what he meant, you know, to the community. >> thank you. >> >> project sponsor you have a two-minute rebuttal if you choose. >> thank you commissioners. may i just say based on the written paper i received from the planning department about the dr, number one, the focus number one is

if people are going to change their lives, they need to have services that will help them change their lives. that is an important priority. other services have been public mental health, health and human services, housing and employment and economic development and we also have went into prisons, probation and started a reentry planning. we are talking about the results which has proved if you change your approach then you can improve the results and in san francisco, three years about before realignment and evidence base probation and sentencing we had over 7,000 individuals on probation, as a result we now currently have 5500 individuals under supervision and that includes all of this population that has been realigned in the state. instead of a 78 percent failure rate which is what parole has, probation has a 77 percent success rate, again changing the focus. the number of felony probationers who were revoked and sent to state prison, 3 years ago was 75 percent in 2009, and in 2012 we sent 65 individuals. of the 1310 felony probationers, 77 percent completed successfully and of the

>> i think the change in format has changed the dialogue. one of the reasons we got rid of the panel of reporters was that reporter number one has taught long and hard about the question that he or she is going to ask to show how brave they are to the american people and their constituents in the press corps. under the old rules, he or she would ask the question and they would have the two minutes, one minute, 30 seconds. maybe they're needed to be a follow-up on that question. reporter number two has been a lot of time on his or her question and does not want to waste be moment in the sun to follow because they have their own question. you did not get the follow-ups when you should. that is why we decided to change the format. i love this pot at 15 minutes on a subject where the moderator has the ability to let them go at each other. to step forward, one back. i like the model we have now. we take a lot of ideas. do not hesitate to contact the commission. go online to the website. be kind. we will be happy to hear from you.

this situation for a long time and we have to change it simple as that. has been in place since one thousand nine hundred ninety five and since then there has never been one single negotiated agreement multilaterally we have to change that now bali is an opportunity we're going to have the ministerial call for us at the end of the year december and we are negotiating now with smaller package it doesn't mean that it's not significantly affect it's a very significant package but it's something different from what we were doing before so who knows this next approach would begin to yield some fruits and we can not only harvest something significantly bali but also open the door for future agreements but in your approach to changing things in w.t. what would be different from your proudest predecessor because he was saying the same thing you were saying that things have been stagnating and he wanted to change stuff but he couldn't do anything really well this is the first time that we actually try to approach something different from the whole round. we have s

and the hearing change is in honor of jose saria who passed away who was a great queer leader and used the entertainment to the best of his ability. and i believe that the information that is already in the packets is plenty of information, i don't think that we need to add any new information before what the out reach looks like. and i do think that the types of out reach is going to be what we are adding into the policy. >> and they are one, presentation to a home owner's association, neighborhood are community group. i would like to strike home owner's association. i just want to say that presentation to community or neighborhood group. >> specifickation to the type of permit that they are seeking. they are to share any and all relevant information such as hours of operation, entertainment types, security plans as well as plans for neighborhood integration. this should be an oral or visual presentation that is given before the members of the group and one of their regularly scheduled meetings. and the notice of completion by the, again, strike the hoa, community or neighborhood grou

some people will die before they do change. it's just that they didn't live long enough to change. but my whole life now is geared to going back to help those i left behind. that's my life. i would feel that loss if i couldn't go back at all... >> it's to the point that even though you're out, it's still in you. >> yeah, i miss it. i do. i don't tell people that, but i do. that's all i have an real money. victoria azarenko [[voiceover]] every day, events sweep across our country.ç] >> unlike larry, many prisoners won't make it out alive. thousands of inmates will die behind bars in the united states this year. lewis young is afraid that he may be one of them. diagnosed with kidney cancer, lewis awaits his sentence in the hospital wing of philadelphia's detention center. >> to have cancer, to be in jail, and not to be around your family. you know, it's real scary. >> in lieu of family, lewis has phyllis taylor. she's a correctional chaplain and has developed the hospice program here to help comfort dying prisoners. >> my hope is that if it's not possible to release the elders and to

in the public health code and these were actually previously determined by dph and so we are not changing what the penalties have been in the past and we are just codifying in the health code and number two, we would like to introduce the additional regulations concerning the massage establishment operations that are allowable under state law and so these additional regulations include, requiring that massage practitioners licensed by our department of public health to wear the photo identification card showing their certification and authorizing a denial of a permit to an applicant who has been convicted of crimes and providing for an appeal process for anyone who is denied a permit. we would like to prohibit the sexual activity and consumption of alcohol and non-prescription drugs and also hope to notified the property owners not just the business owners of any health code violations received and so that they are aware of what is going on in their property. and also providing other health and safety requirements. which are in another piece of legislation that is under the review right n

more change or less? more. more change. more change in momentum means what kind of impulse? greater. greater impulse. and you saw that. and it's the impulse that knocked the block over. hey, huh? huh? physics. we're not gonna talk about impulse and momentum today. we're gonna talk about a rebated idea. how hard you push to get something going is one thing, but how long you push is also important. so far, we talked about how long in terms of time, how long in terms of what your watch reads. we can talk about how long in terms of... distance. distance, that's right. and when we do that, force times distance, it turns out we'll get a change in some other quantity. and that other quantity is not momentum, it is? begins with a e. energy. energy, okay? and this is what we're gonna talk about today. force times distance will produce a change in energy. what is energy? energy is that numerical quantity which appears in many, many forms like mechanical energy. we'll talk about mechanical energy today, really. energy of position, potential energy. energy of motion, motion energy. we d

people started to change.hey started to change in the immediate surroundings, and now it is about looking at the whole country and saying, where do we have those patches of land that we still think are worth keeping like they are, preserving? about two years ago, there was a huge story, the plans to build a chemical factory. all those plans were ready. basically just waiting for the government's approval. so many people started to say no and make their voices heard that they actually changed something. the plans were abandoned. that did not happen before so often. that was an important development. >> landmark event, yes. we need to take the first break on the program. when we come back, we will continue our conversation with mr. klaus bardenhagen, freelance journalist from germany. see you in a few minutes. >> will come back to the second segment of the database program -- welcome back to the second segment of today's program. we will continue our conversation with mr. klaus bardenhagen, freelance journalist

dow more volatile, less volatile, no change at all? >> many anything, i think it might make it a touch less volatile. you know, one point in the stock, whether it's on an $8 stock like alcoa, one point ask the same amount in that kind of thing. but when you have an $8 stock, you know, it tends to bounce around a lot more. if anything, maybe a touch volatile. the volatility wasn't really a concern. these are all big, well-known liquid stocks. this is not like a merging market stock where they bounce like crazy or something. we're not worried about that. >> david, when investors hear about changes like this, they start thinking like well, why didn't this company or that company get invited at the index and the two names that came up, google and apple have a huge influence on the economy and widely traded stocks. what's the story there? >> google, apple and all the other stocks, changing an inkex is not an investment recommendation, neither positive nor negative. google is $885 a share, apple i continue know but well north of 200 or 300.

there have been 3 attempts to change sequa by 3 supervisors and all 3 of them never changed the final approval trigger. this one did change it changed if from final approval to first approval that's a big deal first year we insisted on keeping the first approval. and after negotiations we found that was not possible so we had to compromise our first strongest need and we do compromise that because we saw in order to this process to continue we gave. so, now at this point what we need it a method to appeal the e r os decision. the e r o is very confident but open some occasion there may be a gray area. for example, if there's a change in the building envelope well, i'm sure the building envelope can be tweaked. and they as that's not significant. but if they say that's a change but it's not substantial that's not a big deal. in this case if there's a hearing we could bring up points of use that perhaps the environmental officer didn't see or consider. that is really important to us we gave up final approval is this is something we really need. so i hope that you understand that the com

chang on her achievement. i look forward to working with you. and we'll go into closed session as the authorities new executive director and we'll not take too long and report any action reported in closed session and take any action required. so we can now get the room ready for closed session >> public comment. >> oh, yes, we should have public comment on our closed session so we're now opening is it up for - we'll open up inform public comment you can come to the podium. >> good morning again commissioners aim jackie i've known maria and gloria chang. i appreciate all the work that maria has done but i also worked with till lion the - for many years on the 5 year plan four-year plan being before you every few years. and i strongly support her as the executive director and i appreciate all the work that maria has done i know you're not going to be a stranger i know we'll see more of you interest thank you very much >> thank you and next speaker please. will - 0 do we have the other microphone? >> good morning. i just want to say a few words of
