so, i'll take one example. and which is the largest magnitude earthquake in japan, since they turned on their warning system in october of 2007. it was a magnitude 7.2 earthquake. the japan agency that monitors earthquakes and provide this is information issued the warning and then these are specific reports of how 24 warning -- this warning was used. and it is people in their homes and getting in safe zones and getting under tables and away from windows. people in offices same action. schools, and i'll show you in a minute. factories people moving away from hazardous environments. planes were prevented from landing and told to go around and there's somebody in a car bringing a -- the car to a stand still. and what is most important here is that there are no reports of panic. one of the issues one of the concerns we always had is that issuing a warning with a few second notice could result in people panicking and could have a greater negative impact than the earthquake itself. well we have now had several warni

for example. for every ten private sector jobs created in the south of england where we are doing this, only one was created in the north of england. now that is not a sustainable position going forward. and of course one of the problems. united kingdom was that we were building up this budget deficit not in the middle of a banking crisis and recession but actually before that in the good years. and i used to borrow a phrase from john f. kennedy, and tell people at the time to fix the roof is when the sun is shining. and we weren't doing that in the middle part of this decade. unfortunately, we not only had the budget deficit at the end of this period we've been through the recession in the 1990s. but we went into the crisis with the highest budget deficit in the world. >> rose: tell me what big society means. is this an important idea that we haven't seen before or is it simply one more person. >> there is such. >> rose: this is how we see the balance. >> i guess what it would-- the way i think a

and for example why is it that a feeling feels like anything? why is it that a feeling feel it is way it does? why is it that you can feel pain or you can feel pleasure. there are a number of unanswered question there is and i think like many other aspects of our minds we're going to find the answers in neuroscience. we just need to have different approaches but that's my main question right now. >> what genes mediate the risk for who develops disorders and who doesn't and then by... >> rose: what genes mediate the risk? >> for, say, post-traumatic stress disorder. is and i they's so exciting about this area, my final word would be is understanding fear disorder is far ahead of many areas of sky cy chai tri. so when we identify the genes with classic genetics we can look in the brain and it will help us understand how that part works and new therapies and ideas. >> for me it's an evolutionary question. are the genes and the brain mechanisms that control something like aggression conserved throughout ef constitution? what are the genes that pre-d

and i'm going to use this brain as an example. a big debate raged in the 19th century between two camps. one camp that thought that brain function was divided up into localized components and another camp thought the brain did everything holisticically. all right. and interesting as that debate goes on today but and the reason for this debate was because it all depended what kind of disease you decided to study. so for example if you get a stroke in this motor strip here, you develop a paralysis in the limbs on the upper side of the body. but otherwise are you okay. you think okay. your language is okay. it's just the limb on the opposite side of the body that is affected is so what is a very strong case for highly localized function. fwlu are other kinds of lesion that cause a much more diffuse broad set of abnormalalities which made it very difficult to believe that all of those could be actually controlled by one region. so for example you could get something called neglect especially when you affect the right side of the brain

ships that go on life you know it because for example. for many years working on t.v. i was sure that television was something for only people but television is for somebody who has prime time it's seven o'clock on saturday seven pm but who the hell is watching television seven pm on saturday only lowly people who said it i watched nothing else they would watch television but. there's a good there's a good ready for that don't have a t.v. in your bedroom don't have a t.v. in your kitchen in your living room have a special television room use it a cinema i mean go watch the news and come back to to realize that's all the same with into. i think that's true i think also it's an incredible distraction you know as as a writer i know that i can't help being seduced by checking of email every twenty minutes or so there's actually a company now that was sponsoring you have a way of turning off your internet for four or five hours in a row for writers and a half it helps you write much more effectively that way i'm almost thinking of signing up for that because i find myself m

conflict of interest that credit agencies were another example of bad incentives. consistent with key aspects of research and if information, the public policy response to these problems has focused on improving market participants incentives. for example, to address problems of compensation practices, the federal reserve in conjunction with other agencies has suggested compensation practices to supervisory review. the inner agency supervisory dinettes supports compensation practices that induce employees to take a longer-term perspective such as paying part of an employee cpensation in stop based on sustained strong performance. to animate the problems with the model, recent legislation requires regulatory agencies to develop new standards that better align the incentives in the various stages of the securitization process. the securities and exchange commission has been charged with developing new rules to reduce conflict of interest in credit rating agencies. information economics or also essential to understanding the problems caused by so-called "too big to fa

for example, they're important in mate selection. more over, darwin pointed out that the social aspect of emotion communicated through facial expression. this book came out in the 1872 two years earlier a modification in printing occured that allowed you to reproduce photographs inexpensivefully print. and this book is one of the first books that is literally filled with photographs of various kinds of people and various emotional states. and darwin is particularly interested in children. he studied his own children very carefully, was curious about their behavior and it struck him that children expression emotions in a particularly pure and powerful form and here we see approach happiness and sadness in achild. and this, of course, raises the question how do we classify emotion? and darwin implied and we now have ner good reason to believe that we claskifiedthem along two dimensions: valence and intensity. here we have valence. so there are anywhere from six to seven emotions, i illustrate seven here, that range from happiness that

let me give you brief specific factual example. you put $1 billion -- take $1 billion, and you invest in a cole plant, you'll create about 870 jobs. it sounds fine until you consider you could take that same billion dollars and put it into a nuclear plant and generate about a thousand to 1,500 jobs on the high end. but if you get in the renewable energy business, you take that billion dollars and put it into solar, you generate 1,900 jobs, but the big game-changer is in greening buildings. when you renovate, when you take buildings like this and their legacy systems and you convert them with more energy efficiency, you generate through the effort of that investment for every billion dollars, over 7,000 jobs. this is the number one ticket to a broad-based economic growth strategy. investing in our sustainable future. you don't have to give a damn, with all due respect, about climate change, but i imagine every single one of you do give a darn about what's going on with our economy and unemployment. and if any of you are associated w

the southeastern part of the city, for example. there isn't middle school capacity for children who live there. so some of them are assigned to fairly distant middle schools. so i think one important thing to note about the middle school feeder pattern is they're not about where a student lives. they're about where a student goes to elementary school, and you will notice that in the model, the elementary schools for the most part that are assigned to the middle school and proximity is definitely something that is factored into it. you can see that with the patterns that are there. in some cases, it's not possible either due to capacity or program. so i'll give an example with i.s.a. we've applied for a grant for an i.b. program. and muir and flynn are also part of that grant. so being optimistic and hoping that we're going to get that magna grant, we would obviously want that program to be a k-12 so it would make sense to support that model to have muir and flynn feed into i.s.a., so it's a k-12 i.b. program, >> another area where

an example in numbers what that would look like. >> yes. one second, supervisor. okay. so for -- essentially for the harding course, the harding course budget we have two pots of money. we have a pot of money that is the -- that is the entire course budget, that includes the course maintenance as well as -- the course maintenance performed by city workers and the pot of money that is expended by the tpc or currently kemper but hopefully in the future tpc on the city's behalf. so we have tied incentives to both of those pots of money. on the first case for the pot of money that's expended on the city's behalf by kemper if we were to budget -- i'm sorryry, currently by kemper, under the proposed contract by tpc, if they -- that current budget for fiscal year 10-11 is $3.287 million. if that were to go to let's say -- if they were to bring in $ 3.5 million of revenue this year, they would then keep 25% of the delta between the budgeted operating expenses and budgeting revenue and the actual. so in that instance, that would be a difference of approximately $213,000, so we w

that means example, in the next slide, shows especially in coast areas. next. that means there is about lot of good news with regard to climate change if your a water manager. but a little good news is these are tools that we think will perform better in the future from a water manager's perspective. the next slide show s tools that will not be reduced in performance by climate change. waist management, local shower heads, ground water clean up. those are important tools that are relatively climate insensitive and will be an important part of the water management portfolio going forward. it's important to note, and there has not been a lot of discussion about this. the range of tools performing on high drolg, if you invest in this you should expect it will perform more poorly in the future than today. that's not just a matter of looking that vulnerability of your existing system but it helps drive water manager's choices going forward. because - if you look at the next slide, the question of water manager's impact starts with snow,pack, storage loss, but if you

it can be, for example, equipment that is more economical. or a variety of things. so it's not necessarily staff. but let me read you the exact provision that's in the agreement. this is on page 2-6. if the annual r.p.d. course management budget is decreased by an amount less than 15% and the tpc, quote, reasonably determines -- in fact, that provision by itself raises a question, what does that mean? if the tpc reasonably determines, not the rpd. that the city cannot meet the master term maintenance standards, tpc can initiate a binding arbitration process which could result in tpc being given the right to terminate the proposed agreement with rpd if the arbitrator agrees with the tpc's determination that the city cannot meet the master turnlt maintenance standards. and the second provision is if the annual course maintenance budget is decreased by 15% or more and the tpc, again, quote, reasonably determines, end of quote that the city cannot meet the master tournament maintenance standards, tpc has the right without arbitration to terminate the proposed agreement

this is one example, and i know that the audience like we cannot read this, but again, it is available online, and it shows the detail we went to on each of these parks, both on property and off. in addition, we wanted to look at how the blue green way system connects as part of the larger system, and in the northern waterfront, we have the embarcadero, not that connects all the open spaces, and southern is very much different. it is an industrial setting, so some of the things we're looking at is how we can improve the road ways to connect what we are calling linking streets that connect the parts together, and on how we can better connect the neighborhoods to the parks. so that is what this map illustrates, the alignment of the blue green way, some of the linking streets and connecting streets and how it relates to the city hosted by civil system plan. again, this is just an illustration of how we looked at each of the linking streets and connector streets. we looked at the existing conditions and what are some of the opportunities for improving it in the future. an example of the co

a good example of this is in vancouver where they have lives that come down to the waterfront so that it is not a linear system that if you drop from at&t park to herons head park, you just have to jog back, but you might be able to look into the neighborhood and provide down to the water and back up into the neighborhood, so it is something we're looking at as part of the connector street along the blue green way. since the community workshop and at the community workshop, we received a number of commons. most of them work around these six areas regarding have attacked. there were comments that we need to identify appropriate places to allow for future habitat and make sure that they are compatible with the types of programming and news is we are talking about for some of the open spaces. there were also comments regarding environmental issues, indicating that we need to identify more clearly in the document where there are issues related to contamination that may impact future open spaces. we also need to look at accommodating sea level rise as part of the future planning. ford's di

and how has it managed to save money already on something, for example, as large as jso?> well,. >> joint strike fighters, excuse me. >> to take a new program, the ssb and x is a program whose total dollar value will exceed $100 billion, and when the ship design first came in, the costs we estimated to produce that ship design was so high that it would have taken the lion's share of the navy shipbuilding budget for the whole decade, from 2020 to 2030. that's what we mean by unaffordable. you could see it that, we couldn't afford it. and what the navy has very successfully done and what one of things i directed that we do in all of our new starts and there are a number of them this year, is take that engineering design, let me see how the cost of the submarine varies with each critical design parameters, speed, diameter, and so forth so that we can see where without sacrificing critical military capabilities we can alter the design and the navy's done that to such an extents that the design we're looking at now is 16% cheaper than the original design and the goal is to get

here's another example of a long weir structure. this is sort of south of monster park along the bay. on the lower left you can see sort of the weir arrangement as it currently exists. one of our concepts would be -- it's a little hard to see, but you can sort of wall off those existing weirs and put some sort of a duck bill type of back flow prevention in there. so we see this as a near term solution to a current problem we have, something we can start doing right away, and i think my engineers suggest that this would probably protect us i'd say for the next 30 to 50 years. if this is all we did, we could probably avoid serious problems with salt water intrusion. start looking at the longer term, i don't really know what you do other than install more pumps. will talked about this is a problem we have to stop. we might have to build seawalls around the city, we might have to firm up large areas, we're just going to have to pump a lot more. and i guess sort of a discussion point i have about more pumping is conceptually that's simpl

i mean, for example. >> charlie: but not today and not tomorrow. that's why you're in trouble. >> although... look, that was a small share of the total package. it reflects the tension that we discussed earlier which is the stuff that gets out the door fast and has high bang for the buck, let's call it just for the sake of argument $400 billion or $500 billion. then you start layering on other things that will have some spendout in 2010, 2011, but it's not the... again, 70% was money will be out the door by the end of this fiscal year. >> charlie: right. how much? >> 7-0. >> charlie: the next 30 will take how long? >> it's spread out over 2012, 2013. the debate would be over that 30%. >> charlie: could you have created a stimulus program that created a lot of jobs and you would say all the money will be out the door in two years? >> challenging but perhaps possible. it would require more focus on things like state and local aid. >> charlie: do you think the president wishes he would have done that now. >> another question is how much help would it

should be an example for all persons in sfpd

for example, myself, i was a student at the university of wisconsin. i had no criminal record. i got arrested in a marijuana conspiracy case. no possession, no sale. i was threatened with 150 years. 150 years. i'm from madison, wisconsin, which is a town not unlike san francisco. they cannot put me on trial in madison in wisconsin, so they took me to the south of carolina, and they put me on trial in strom thurmond federal courthouse in charleston, south carolina. across the street was the confederate cemetery. from the courthouse, they flew two flags -- the u.s. flag and the confederate battle flag, which was the state flag of south carolina. from the court room, i could look out the window and seaport sumter in the distance -- see fort sumter. they put me on a case with no marijuana. they invented imaginary marijuana. they said i was charged with conspiring to contribute 10 tons of colombian marijuana. i pled not guilty. i had a jury trial. i was found guilty on one account, acquitted on nine. i had an appellate case and the supreme court case. i was then facing 15 years. sin

for example, they had a middle school in it. there questions about how a policy could be interpreted. for example, this is part of the feeder pattern, and there were a lot of questions, too, about design features about the language pathway, et which goes into one program. more information about the program. there are also lots of questions about reform four middle schools, and this is so that all of our middle schools, all 14 of them, provide the same opportunities in terms of extracurriculars couric's -- extracurricular activities. and submenu gets an initial assignment to a school that has been historically underperforming, and people want not really general interest but really want to imagine what kind of support and programs which be available at the middle schools. there were also questions about whether or not the feeder patterns, there were lots of comments about the eastside versus the west side and about lower socioeconomic status at middle schools together, and i just wanted to comment

i'll give you some examples. when i hear folks who say that somehow we're being too tough on wall street, but after a huge crisis the top 25 hedge fund managers took home $1 billion in income that year, $1 billion. that's the average for the top 25. you know, you're -- >> and yet "forbes" magazine puts on a cover saying he has a anti-colonial attitude or steve schwartzman, a big figure on wall street says their approach to the financial regulation and taxation is like hitler invading poland. where does that come from? >> i mean i don't know where that comes from. that's my point. i guess, it is a two-way street. if you're making $1 billion a year after a very bad financial crisis where 8 million people lost their jobs and small businesses can't get loans, then i think that you shouldn't be feeling put upon. the question should be how can we work with you to continue to grow the economy? a big source of frustration, this quote that you just said, this was me acting like hitler going into poland, had to do with a p

the obama campaign is the best example. they brought in people early on from -- that had facebook experience, and basically built this thing, my barack obama.com, which not only engaged constituents, but actually united the grass root efforts of people who -- to get involved in the campaign with the campaign itself. >> and andy, political groups have said oh, we've got to harness the power of the internet before. one of the things that was remarkable about barack obama was if you go to his facebook page, and i don't know if he is still number one or not -- lady gaga. >> lady gaga. >> all right. >> two most important persons in the world. but it shows, you know, what rock and roll music he likes. >> the idea is about being transparent. and what you said is kind of interesting. it represents the change in politics in the sense that before the guidance was don't put anything out there that you're -- you know that your opposition could use. and now it's more like, if you don't put something out there, that's an action in itself
