the same speaker profile, and the same time, and the same db, and the same everything. and that you will come back first meeting in june with just the first tuesday of june, for all of your other permits. now i know for the june 9th event, it puts a cramp in your style because how do you promote an event with a week, it is difficult, i know that it is. but i don't know how else we are going to do this. >> you don't even have the application. >> yeah. >> so. all right. the application that i have to hear is for september first. >> there are four other loud speaker permits that they do for, let me get this and so... >> but they have the first and may 26th are like stomp y and sunset is the other four parties over the summer. >> second sunday. >> is it just the other four parties over the second sunday parties over the summer. and they have had happening forever, it was at kelleys and the venues have just been awful and that has been over the summer. >> when were those applications coming? >> those... they have not been filed yet. >> we don't normally approve loud speaker

>> the disadvantaged db, center enterprises, would be incorporated as part of the sbe umbrella, but i have not segregated out the list of sub contractors, db versus lbe. >> it seems like a huge project, an extraordinary opportunity to do something for small businesses in san francisco. whatever we can do to support that he ought to look into it very seriously. >> if i could clarify, locally funded projects have a prohibition on locally geographic base preferences such after 14b of the city administrator code that provides for such preferences that we use for non-federally funded work is not applicable; we are not allowed to apply here. what we can do is set an sbe goal. which we have done. and with the contractor has exceeded. despite our efforts through meet and greets, berries outreach efforts in advance of the word, in advance of the bid, to connect local businesses with prospective bidders, the firm that won didn't have a whole lot of san francisco firms on his team. the opportunities that remain, the public contract law says you have to list of the contractors that will do at lea

and, you know, if someone says -- they all have db meters on their mixers. obviously if it goes to a certain level that exceeds the db ordinance, they obviously bring that down. >> now, are they going to be monitored -- monitoring each event throughout the whole event, or is it just in the beginning just at the end? >>> you know, i wouldn't be able to speak to that. >> okay. >>> sorry. >> and who would be -- live nation? >>> probably live nation, correct. >> thank you. >>> thank you. >> is there anyone else? >>> thank you, commissioners, for letting me have the opportunity to speak again. i feel really emotional. i have to admit. i think that this is what i know. we as a member this little community, beautiful community, we were told and we were so excited about everyone coming and enjoying the boat races, america's cup boat races. but then four months ago we find out for the first time it's not just going to be boat races. there were supposed to be 15 boats, now there's only three boats and -- but, there's going to be concerts. there are going to be 40 conc

the income should be okay. >> the npr ratio at dbs is stable. in china, it's -- frankly, i mentioned the business in china is very sir couple expect. we deal with a limited number of top end companies. we have a very textured portfolio for the most part is less than one year financing. a substantial portion of the cash back will tell you. and we make sure that the companies that redeem them are long-term winners. xhen taters have said that the nature of sovereign could be anything up to a trillion dollars. i don't have any view on that myself. it could be, but, you know, the thing to think about, though, is that, you know, the npos in china a decade ago were to the tune of $600 billion. and the 600 billion, the government redeemed that quite effectively, between passette management companies and ceo. so even if the number is 600 billion or ten billion of whatever it is, i think the chinese economy has available to deal with it. >> how worried are you about the hard landing in china or is the economy moving towards a more sustainable model of gro

that says -- at paragraph 9 -- that live nation will consistently measure the sound of all events with db meter in the facility. [speaker not understood] live nation personnel will notify mixed [speaker not understood] and the volume will be adjusted to comply with legal limits. the problem here is the condition does not track what san francisco noise ordinance actually says, which is there are very specific noise levels that can be allowed including in people's living rooms. and those noise levels, once again, the port and the board has found are going to be exceeded, that we are exceeding noise level standards. as we conclude in our brief, this measure is too vague to be enforceable or meaningful. the term consistently, as in consistently monitoring sound is undefined. what does that mean? does it mean sound measured over a single noise event? does it mean averaged over a five-minute, a 10-minute, is it a day/night average? what are we talking about? also the term "in the surrounding neighborhood" we're going to measure noise in the surrounding neighborhood. where is that? and how do yo

noise control plan number 9, it says live nation will consistently measure the sound of all events with db meters in the facility as well as the surrounding neighborhood. so, could you define consistently? does that mean that you are going to have someone in their neighborhood at the whole time of each concert? or are you going to put them at the beginning of the concert or at the end of the concert? >>> there's two standards. the first one is at the mix position, that's decibel will be me you'der throughout the entire show. that decibel is a very different decibel than what would be in the neighborhood as the speakers are facing, again, towards the water, not towards the neighborhoods and the sound can ~ curtain, as well as other -- there is a wall, a building, plus a four-lane road between the building which is very busy. the embarcadaro, of course. the second sound meter person will have a decibel meter and will measure the decibels throughout the course of the event in various places throughout the neighborhood. so, they'll go to 101 lombard, measure the decibels. they'll go to a diffe

if i pick a t loser i have to db it. either way i always win.dly familiar, doesn't it? a little insider trading always makes for a good plot line. this one in cbs's show, "person of interest" is clearly ripped from the headlines and the sac capital scandal. hollywood rarely miss as chance to glamourize insider trading in the insatiable quest for the power of money. is it undermining the spirit of the crime? that's what i asked former sec chairman harvey pitt and criminal defense attorney richard roth, but i jumped right in with fox business' own charles payne. i am almost on the side of steve cohen now. starting to feel sorry for him. if cbs will take a half-baked drama and rip from the headlines, is everybody father getting that he hasn't been convicted? he hasn't even been charged. that doesn't matter. >> never matters, particularly in hollywood, does a lot, they convict a whole lot of people in a whole lot of industries. you think you're upset with this one, wait until the wolf of wall street comes out you talk about glamourizing these thing.

if you analyze the dot-db-1 data and you analyze airfares since deregulation. airfare is down on an inflation-adjusted basis, including fees are probably down a third from where they were at deregulation and down 10% from where they would have been right before 9/11. so we still offer tremendous value, and there's still good contestability in the marketplace. >> rose: yet, at the same time you seem to be searching for ways to add fees. >> well, we aren't searching for ways to add fees. we're trying to give consumer choice about what they want and what they don't want. the most recent -- >> you have to pay for paggage. >> when you think about baggage, for instance, the cot of transportation and handling of baggage is very significant. i mean, we just made an invest of $150 million in the atlanta baggage system so we can sort and move people's baggage. we move 15 million pieces of baggage a month and it takes an army of people and a massive set of systems and computer systems to be able to do that. >> rose: when a piece of baggage is lost, what happens? some hand

no loans no hardship distributions, just operationally just like the current db system. but the contributions are -- the limit of the employers' exposure and that puts additional pressures on the trustees to manage the plan assets in a way that reduces the liability or the exposure of the participant to the kinds of market volatility we have seen in the past few years. it would require early intervention if the plan drops below the 120% funding you bet from halve your minimum contributions pegged to that level, and we would -- rather than get into the details of that, we simply say that this model allows greater flexibility to deal with the market variations. not dissimilar to things proposed in other public forums, including senator harken's proposal. that's the general direction we're headed. >> okay. let me switch and ask you, earl, i think one of the questions i was going to ask earl was how important -- we're going to stipulate they're all important so we won't worry about that. josh made an excellent statement about that. but you just heard josh talk about how good
