dr. hyman, he said, thanks for giving me my life back. for giving me my life back. you know what's remarkable to me is how backward thinking about depression is. you know doctors only tend to use vitamins if anti-depressants don't work. they should be prescribing the vitamins in the first place and then supplementing with anti-depressants only if vitamins and lifestyle changes don't work. now, let's talk about the second key to an ultramind; balancing your hormones. now, as we age, our hormones become out of balance. you know, woman after menopause become more like men. they grow hair on their chins and they lose hair on their head from too much testosterone. and men after andropause, which is like male menopause, become more like woman and they lose hair on their chest, and on their legs, and they get nice soft skin because they have too much estrogen. so by the time they're 65 they're about the same.

second dr requestor, you have two minutes. >> i said most of what i had to say. just what we are asking is a modest pullback from the proposed plan, maybe a couple of feet would make a big difference, certainly coming to the edge of our house or even the average of the two houses. president olague: thank you. project sponsor, you have two minutes. >> thank you, commissioners. on behalf of john dibenedetti and his family, we have filed a request for accommodation in the americans with disabilities act so he can get the vehicle into his garage. it is steeply sloped. it will require a trench brain. it continues to the midpoint of the grosz. it is completely impossible to pull a car in. the doors themselves fold in order to open. the extension to the rear maintains the same percentage of lot coverage enjoyed by the robertsons' in the house to the north. we have a tapering block. this is a good response to a tapering block. we have a building that is stepping down to the rear and putting the mass the toward the rear. we are not changing the facade significantly. they

what is a dr? maybe it would not help. but i think it would help improve the department's relationship with people in the neighborhood, to improve some of these things. and then the materials of metal -- i think we could probably work it out with different commissioners, with the director, just exchanging ideas and that kind of thing. we are the ones that are ultimately pushing these projects back because we are not satisfied with what we are getting here. i think you are right. the onus should be on ice. finally, commissioner fong mentioned dr reform. what i had an issue with was the commission giving up their jurisdiction on these cases. people were talking about hearing officers, things that took that away from us. that is something i did not support. if there were different iterations, like three commissioner sitting on panels, working -- i do not even know how that would work. under the city attorney or sunshine or any of these acts that we have. if there was something that would still engage the commissioners in the

i have experienced what dr. campbell spoke to you about the shuttle that falls on his property from the house built next door to him. the house is also next door to me. a nice guy built it, a wonderful architect. the house is bigger than anybody thought it was going to be. it was built on what was a vacant lot next door to my house. it extends beyond the edge of my house, as this one will. president olague: thank you. are there additional speakers in support of the dr? >> i would just like to confirm that you have the letter in your packet from joe boyle. president olague: i saw it. >> thank you very much. president olague: any additional -- would you like to speak, the lady standing up? did you want to speak on behalf of the dr requestor? >> ad lib at 183, across the street. i have been there 55 years. the thing that makes edgewood incredibly perfect is the spaces that were shown on those lines between louis st., belmont street, and edgewood street. it is a park-like situation to our south. it is very special.

dr. ojo? dr. ojo: commissioners, apparently the appellant is not denying the sale of cigarettes to minors. the department has done a lot in terms of educating the operators, educating them about the law and sending them a lot of educational materials about tobacco products, and we have been running this program for about five or six years. i think by now, all of the licensed operators -- it is frustrating to our inspectors that we spend so much time on enforcement, but that is the nature of the profession that we are in. " they allow 90 days for the first offense. -- they allow 90 days. sometimes they listen to the testimony of all of the different operators, and they considered a hardship, but, again, not to watch a lot down vote -- to water the law down, and working with the board, the 25 days is the least we can go down for for the first offense. we think 25 days is reasonable. in this case, she sells other products other than cigarettes, so i would respectfully ask that the board denied the ap
