sound-producing electronic devices. poppe people are here today so see what's happening to experience the positive it's which our kids observatory and have done a fantastic job in working with adrian and others. also one of the key challenges nobody in terms of the housing the people to fill the roles to allow that sector to grow it's on a inspiration looking at the core kids coming over from san francisco and looking to the future in a number of years time, you know, those young people polish can be working together on projects working in employment fascinates fantastic companies no matter where they're working the skills the san francisco kids get to work with cork and give us the opportunity to come to san francisco and it's huge and for those who are not aware cork is spreading

california and the kids were using data from the the telescope to create images. this is what public scientists do all the time we've had kids using those same skigz. the very first thing they took ugly data and learned the skills to do a beautiful images. they created a cool game. i'm going to show you i am not a mentor but this morning our mentors were the kids our kids a quick round of applause (clapping) and finally i'm going to introduce adriana great name (laughter) just to show you he's made a great creative thing here (clapping) and he'll speak about that >> i made a game

cod can do joe's that are here having fun and part of the our international folks so this is another opportunity to create a presence and maybe some of the industry represented will join us from the academy and promote 24 so kids can understand what the rest of the word is doing. it's gay development right now because it's fun but if you reuse those tools over and over and introduce user with new tools whether sound effects they've done really, really well or the crafting of the drawings using those tools gets you in the doorway of our city the new you bay area jobs have a lot to do with technology and when you master those tools you'll be able to do more what field whether the height field or game investment or bio life science the discovery to create the next drug that will save the world we are challenged with those things and technology is a way forward it begins with the story of the astroids tomorrow we could be striking diseases in terms of cancer. this is great stuff and

that's how money makes its way into the city's rainy day reserve and that's not proposed to change at all. for withdrawals from the city, if the city controller projects total general fund revenues for the up coming budget year are less than revenues for any current year or prior year, then up to half of the rainy day reserve balance can be in the city budget for the upcoming year. and the second frankly is that the decision making process about appropriating funds from the reserve to the district is now resting with the mayor and the board of super visors so certainly that was the intent of the original language, but that is something that the city has -- you know, the willingness to revisit and change. that's some of the discussion that's taking place now. the possible changes. one is that there would be two separate reserves created so right now instead of having the one plot of funds in the rainy day reserve, that there would be a split of the one reserve into two reserves. one would be for the district and one would be for the city and the city would receive 75 percent of the current balance and the district would receive 25 p
