those rates. . >> oakland and san jose would be the agencies that we compare it to. the third item we're halfway through the third item is related to water and wastewater capacity charges. capacity charges are charges to customers that have new or increasing demands from the existing water or wastewater system we have a number of recommendations to streamline the process for these charges. the main thing we're proposing is to tie both the water and sewer charges to the water meter size. using updated plumbing codes into the water demand calculation all of this will make the calculation process a lot quicker and clearer and we're also proposing to collect all of the charges up front and if there's a change that happens in the building permitting process in terms of the plan we'll go back and adjust the fee and hopefully take the puc from being the last part, the tail end of the permitting process and we tend to get dinged for that. so i can appreciate this is a little small. look at the far right column you are seeing a lot of negatives and this shows how this new inc

the problem compare los angeles to new york or comparing what is happening in iowa to what is happening have an advantage in the military we can establish what the reporting process ought to be. and we can create data that will be comparable. we need to set it out and make recommendations how we can do if. altogether we have a uniform code of military justice. we have a lot of commitment to different way of counting that are out there in the branching of service. a lot of missions that are big military is addressing that leads to what are reasonable distinctions but lead in reporting and terminology but leave us unable to make the distinctions and understand success in and assess progress given the way it is right now. finally, by granting military judges greater authority, authority closer to what judges have in civilian criminal justice systems we can enhance fairness, improve on deficiency, racialty, and also may be improve the confidence of victims in there the treatment they'll receive from the beginning to the end of the system. i'm going it pause and stop talking for a moment and

the lands and grooves on the bullet compared to the test bullet.he results matched. >> my opinion it's that gun and only that gun that could have fired. >> by this time, planten was already in custody in north carolina and things weren't going well. at his court appearance he refused to walk and had to be strapped to a gurney. >> when he was wheeled into court for his first appearance he didn't open his eyes. i believe as long as his eyes were closed and he didn't see it it may not have happened. >> but no one will know the details for certain all the details in either murder. shortly before he was to go on trial for murder in north carolina, drew planten suffocated himself with a plastic bag in prison. >> i was disappointed that we weren't able to have a trial, that we weren't able to sit in a courtroom and hear a jury say you are guilty of first degree murder of stephanie bennett. >> we obtained information and evidence inside the apartment that led us to believe that he had looked into doing this possibly with other females. >> investigators are

only 15% of drinkers become addicted compared to just 9% of marijuana smokers. those figures according to the national institute on drug abuse. but he says the process of kicking an alcohol addiction is far more involved and the risk of abusing cermak says, more severe. >> what kills people, alcohol or marijuana? i'm not sure there's ever been an overdose from death, from marijuana. >> but marijuana can be harmful to kids and that's one point cermak does not want to see left out of the discussion. the latest research, including a report from northwestern university school of medicine shows using marijuana as an adolescent between the ages of, say, 12 and 18 can actually stunt the brain's development and lower adult iq. affecting a person's entire life. >> we were very disappointed in the president. >> one reason, among many that the california police association worries about legalizing marijuana. >> how far are we willing to lower the bar as a society and then what are going to be the unanticipated consequences a generation or two that future generations have t

so first, this is a list of who is on the comparative systems subcommittee. as i mentioned there are four members of the response systems panel and then six subject matter experts. i will introduce some of those subject matter experts to you later as they help me present the materials in our report. so here's our mission. which is a little bit to do in 18 but 12 months. investigate military and civilian systems from the beginning through the end of the military justice response to 6:00 wall assault. so specifically investigation, prosecution, and adjudication for adult sexual assault and related offenses. we did have nine objectives. i will lay those out for you next. so the end result here that you will see today in this interim phase of the subcommittees' work is 77 recommendations and we split those into six different categories. so these are the objectives that were assigned to us by the secretary of defense. first assess the effectiveness of military systems. this includes the uc m.j. definitions, administration, investigation, prosecution and adjudicati

you are comparing apple and owners.and after i wrote my first post on wednesday in the "new yorker" he put out a statement saying total compensation was roughly comparable, jill abramson, and bill keller. they didn't answer the question about the managing editor, by the way. how is that? they say it's because you have to at the bonuses, the stock options, and whether any other long-term payments are made. but they did agree to bump up her $50 3,000 to $525,000 after she protested. but she then did something that offended them. she hired a lawyer to talk to them to try to work this out and they saw that as a kind of war-like action. >> rose: a declaration of war. >> and so that became jill is too difficult to work with it. it fit that narrative, storyline, that was developing. >> rose: which had probably been bothering him for a while. >> it was. and then another thing happened, and that is that they all agree that they should hire a digital managing editor to be the counter-part to dean beckett as managing editor. >> ro

you look at the numbers revealed that solar installations actually went down to 264 installations compared to the 466 installation that normally have been on average each year and in the long run we should continue to fully fund this program and thank the sfpuc staff and general manager kelly to figure out how to fully fund this program and as well doctor jackson of course one of the advocates of this program as well because we believe solar installations happening across san francisco but in particular the lower income communities who do not have access to solar in the first place hopefully -- >> do you have the numbers? of all the jobs created by go solar. >> the disadvantaged workers are 121 workers to date so there are a number of other companies . >> you are the advocate for go solar you should have this information better than our staff. >> i can say hundreds if not thousands but the example i gave 300 alone employed in san francisco gives you the sense. >> it doesn't give me the sense of anything because it doesn't give me a total number it's important for the advocates who advocate

so that they can compare different educational options, and compare schools and compare levels of debtdo standardized comparisons across schools, across colleges so that students are well-informed before they go into a debt situation. >> they admit the treasury department does not have all the answers but she is on a mission to make sure they ask the right questions, saying if we can understand the patterns that lead to defaulting we may understand the benefit to borers and taxpayers and economic growth. >> sharon, how can the government prevent people from taking on debt they can't afford to repay? >> well, one of the things she says is that it needs to be a concerted effort of colleges and universities and the governor as well as loan servicers. they need to provide tools to their college score card and seeing how much debt you may take out and what type of job you may have down the road. will that make sense for you to take out that much of a loan? >> so if people take out that much debt and do ultimately get into trouble what is the ripple effect? >> well, the ripple isk is what th

you can tell by the shading mta's fares are relatively low compared to other fares. light rail exhibited a similar pattern. so, with extensive coverage throughout the entire city and relatively low fares this should not be much of a surprise we have very high rider ship. the number of light rail boardlings per person in san francisco is nearly two and a third times the next highest city and bus boardings is 2-1/2 time the next highest city. it does appear, however, that our high rider ship comes at a price in terms of vehicle speed. in the top chart the average speed of light rail vehicles is plotted on the horizontal axis and the average speed is plotted on the vertical axis. you can see san francisco stands somewhat apart from its peers as our vehicles are slower on average for both modes. but there is an apparent reason for that. the lower chart charts the average speed for buses against bus boardings per revenue mile. it shows a high correlation between the two vehicles. intuitively this makes sense because each time a vehicle stops to board light rail passengers

when you compare it to alcohol, the numbers don't lie. there are for mar deaths associated with alcohol and the risks of alcohol abuse higher than marijuana. switching gears now, you have probably heard of the trouble surrounding high profile 49ers. they have all had recent run-ins with the law. when they get into trouble, people take notice, creating negative perceptions and stereotypes. is that claim true? let's check the numbers. new york knicks point guard's recent arrest on gun charges made national headlines. that's not the most famous one in new york. that belongs to plaxico burris. sometimes athletes don't need to commit a crime. just deliver a passional interview. >> people, that's the result you gonna get. >> ask richard sherman, begging the question high profile incidents in sports have more criminal activity. we looked at arrests and cry citations in the biggest sports. based on data collected by arrest nation, a website formed by a federal agency, prosecutor and former nfl player, the document's legalized activity by sport an

says when you compare salary, you have to look at total compensation. statement the a next day saying that total compensation was roughly comparable. they did not answer the question about the managing editor, by the way. and how is that? they say it is because you have to look at the bonuses and the stock options and any other long-term payments. but they did agree to bump up to 520 $5,000 after she protested. she didn't -- she hired a lawyer to talk to them and work this out in the saw this as a warlike action. >> a declaration of war. l is toobecame jil difficult to work with. that fit that storyline that was developing. >> it brought it to -- happened. thing they all agreed that they should hire a digital managing editor to be the counterpart. >> who is they? somet just jill labor and -- abramson and mark thompson. arrangedened was they janine gibson to come in a week ago last monday to meet with arthur and thompson and the go to lunch. they were trying to recruit her. wasdid not tell dean she recruiting to be a managing editor but doing digital. up

comparing military -- comparing in terms of prosecution rates, we don't recommend congress or the secretary civilian or military prosecution rates. and non prosecution for civilian jurisdiction. mm-hmm military, were not the same applicable in a civilian jurisdiction. we recognize the definition of conduct prosecuted is different in the military versus civilian justice system. we do realize these are dynamic environments too to the uniform reports. these are changing data collection efforts but we don't want only the prosecution rate to expand as an assessment of success. we need to embed that in a more nuanced understanding of the data. this is about data, maybe we should do the sentencing part going forward. >> the u.s. senate is expected to gavel in in a moment. they will begin with an hour general speeches and 11:00, to vote on an energy fissions bill. a measure requiring approval of the keystone pipeline project. as usual the chamber will recess from 12:30 to 2:15 eastern for their weekly party lunches and the official photograph of the 113th congress. now live to the senate floor on c

the occ has sustained 14 cases to date compared to 10 last year as of may 14. a 40 percent increase. the next report would be our april statistical report. so i'm going backwards in time. those are the most up to date statistics. the april report is has charts attached to it that i won't go over. i will highlight mediation. three 3 cases were mediated in april 2014. the same as were mediated in april 2013. 20 occ complaints were mediated between january 1, 2014 , and april 30, 2014. compared to 15 complaints between january 2013 and april 30th. our mediations are up. with adjudication of sustained complaints in april 2014, these are the cases that the occ has sustained and the chief has made a ruling on those cases. and chief sir adjudicated 8 in april. 1 case involving neglect duty and the officer removed the phone from the person. the officer was admonished. the officer failed to collect data. another one failure to collect traffic stop data. the officer was admonished and retrained. the next case, the officer made rude comments to a fair who did not want to

how do we compare to the rest of the world? how much stock should we put in these gdp numbers anyway? mary snow's got that. >> when it comes to measuring economies around the world, the u.s. ranked number 1 and its measured by gdp, gross domestic product. the same measure of goods and services dismissed in the first quarter of this year as a fluke. how does the u.s. measure up against emerging markets like china and india when it comes to gdp growth, it lags far behind. the forecast for economic growth in the u.s. is 2.8% this year. far lower than china's 71/2 % and india's 5.4% forecasted growth. calculate gdp growth based upon population and there is a dramatic change in the equation between the u.s., the world's largest economy, and china ranking number 2. >> the typical chinese is a lot worse off than the typical american until terms of per capta gdp or income. >> gdp or the value of everything produced per person is roughly $1,500 in india. in china, it's 6700. in the u.s., it's 53,000. the u.s. economy is most closely com

comparing that to the dilemma. you have to come to grips with joseph smith. what can you say he is regarded by hundreds of millions of people as a charlatan and worse. was i going to make fun of joseph smith for 280 pages were laughing or sending out his nature and they even acknowledge he had well over 35 lives. there is a question that opposes itself to me. when i first introduced him in the book it's hardly his finest moment he's trying to escape in a very biblical story his own fate he relays a here ... he han indicted and he will probably be code so he and his brother escaped to the iowa so they are all on a boat i start out in my book on possible in the river wr was 38-year-old joseph smith the president of the high priesthood candidate for the presidency of the united states and kingdom of god commander, the judge can't architect, reporter, postmaster, hotel operator and husband many times over from the new england man of god. people expected it to find a kind of john the baptist. it showed every bit of flesh and hammer. they reared and scorer and the

would that about comparable? are the other water districts going to experience a 38 percent increase? that's a question there. another comment there were comments about the water meters well you all know this is important but i think it's really important because san francisco as you all know, there's over 70 percent renters and i've noticed the people that don't have individual meters that's a serious issue so if you are concerned about water conservation that's a serious serious problem that you can't really -- well conservation that's done. another issue is water supply. there was an article recently i forget where it was maybe san francisco business times -- in the event of an earthquake there may not be adequate water supply to fight high-rises well we're building a ton of high-rises and most of the new units housing units there's midrise and high-rise well that's an important safety concern that the commission has to express more strongly to the planning department and to the mayor that we need to resolve t

an index of 20 metropolitan areas, gained 12.4% in march, compared to the same month in 2013. that beat the forecast. but it's down from 12-point the percent from february. and by the way, 12.4% is the smallest annual gain since july. and this makes the consumers more willing to spend on other items. it makes you feel richer, right? and that brings me to another piece of concern about the pace of the recovery. today we learned that new orders for durable goods rose 8/10 of a percent in april compared to march. this is refrigerators, aircraft equipment. things expected to last three years or more. the gain was expected, but here's the thing, orders for defense related goods spiked 3.9%. if you take out the defense goods, which generally speaking you and i don't buy, this number drops to a loss of reduced by 8/10 of a percent. that raises the outlook for consumers. so people buying defense related stuff are doing well, but not everybody else. let's get the questions from the man i mentioned a minute ago. mark vitner, senior economist for wells fargy and it raises doubt about the
