a copy of the order the specifies when exceptions can be granted. it needs to be specific in these cases. >> i am just asking you to keep an eye on that by god, and if it starts to get out of hand -- on that backlog, and if it starts to get out of hand, to raise a flag so we do not get into it too late so we have people complaining that it takes a year to get a permit. if this gives to where it is more than three or four months, we need to take a look at it. i would encourage us to alert you to that fact. you mentioned you are looking at ways to make it work faster or work for you can process it more. let me know if it gets to the point. i do not want to get a mouthful from the people in the community. thank you. >> what is always critical on projects are the certificates of occupancy on the category. is there a coordination of the allows for a seamless merging at a point of when this certificate of occupancy has known incumbrances associated with what the two categories will be completed on time richard -- on time? >> that is a good question. we ty

an exception is required for the curve cut on fremont street. the alternative frontage would be on a mission which is also a transit preferential street and is a very important street for general vehicular traffic. the project request an exception from the requirement regarding ground level -- the new buildings should not exceed certain hazard level when speeds. the project would notthe projecy minimally increase averaged wind speeds by approximately two m.p.h. and would not increase hazardous exceed gains. this shared entry is limited. the project proposals 0 width of 33 free. -- a width of 33 ft.. the province sponsor has indicated a desire to add an additional space to the second level of the project area. this needs to be considered in a manner that is excluded, so the staff has approval but would enable the change administratively, provided sufficient open space is provided, so i would like to distribute an e-mail we received yesterday. this is a letter from a gentleman who is in favor of the project but insisted a component of parking be e

there are no extraordinary are exceptional circumstances here. we ask that the commission stick with mr. hollister's recommendation and not take dr. >> thank you for listening to us today. as you know, you are too exercised discretionary review with utmost constraint. we do not believe there are extraordinary circumstances. there are not any of the impact you normally would vote on in terms of noise and visual impact that are exceptional. the neighborhood meetings we have gone to, the primary concern has been about emf. as you have heard, we are 1% of the emf standard. under federal law, that is not an area within your purview. also under federal law, you have to have substantial evidence to deny this site. that is not just general objections as you have heard this evening, but specific objections to a site that would fall under a ceqa analysis that staff has said are not there. t-mobile has shown a significant gap with coverage maps and drive-test data, which is what they are supposed to do under federal law. they shone with alternative analysis

we have temperatures in the 30s everywhere else except san jose at 40., oakland, san francisco and half moon bay mid-40s. we have 38 santa cruz, watsonville, salinas. 42 monterey and 29, a little frost around gilroy. sunny and mild during the days, not only today but into saturday. clear and chilly at night, clouds and a chilly breeze returning saturday. that's the beginning of the pattern change that brings us the wet wath for next week. as far as today, our 24 hour temperature change is on the rise. temperature at oakland 65 again. 1 degree warmer in san francisco, santa rosa. 2 concord and san jose and 3 in fremont. about another 2 minutes and 9 seconds of sunshine. we'll start down in the south bay, the warm spot, campbell, los gatos 66. everybody else within a few degrees. low to mid-60s along the peninsula, low 60s along the coast, south san francisco. north bay beaches upper 50s to low 60s but mid to upper 60s through your valleys. low to mid-50s the east bay shore. pleasanton 65, the warm spot in the east bay valley and mid to upper 60s around th

dissolved the parliament which was elected under mubarak's leadership without any real opposition except for his own political party. so i believe there's a good chance now that the military, despite the fact that they would rather stay in power, will give up political power that is with honest elections and freedom for the people the rest of this year. >> mr. president, how should we view the muslim brotherhood? >> i have known members of the muslim brotherhood because when i go to egypt and other places, i try to meet with all the political people. and they have played a small role, they are well organized. they have ties to hezbollah in lebanon and also to hamas whose headquarters are in, are in syria and damascus but who also have ties with gaza, they control gaza. i think that the muslim brother hood are not anything to be afraid of in the upcoming political situation or evolution that i see as most likely because they will be subsumed in the overwhelming demonstration of desire for freedom and true democracy. and i would say a secular or nonreligious government that we saw in the d

there are no exceptions to this rule. because it is not discretionary, we have no other means to allowing the establishment -- the removal of the sign was by the book. the only issue here is some sort of corporate miscommunication. with that, we are certainly here to respond to your questions and we would finally offer that we submit that corporate mixup is not grounds to revoke this permit. >> the issue was raised having to do with the permit was revoked prior to the time that it lapsed for an appeal? >> the issue he is alluding to is misconstruing that provision. may i elaborate on that? >> lawrence cornfield, department of building inspection. the appellant is claiming that the building code says that they may not have done the work for 15 days and the department may have not inspected that work for 15 days. they are entirely misleading the building code -- miss reading -- misreading the building code. it is identified as removing all portions above grade. it is specifics of that building is not removed before there is

, and unwarranted closure of the exit and circumstances exception then narrows the use of that exception by police officers. the tests that the commonwealth would propose is a simple lawfulness test. under this test as long as an officer behaves lawfully there should be no suppression of evidence seized. >> so you have an apartment building where police know from experience there's a lot of illegal activity and drugs, every two weeks they walk through and not on every door and wait for evidence of drugs. is that right? >> i would say yes. if there is probable cause -- >> probable cause comes when they hear flushing and hiding behind doors. >> i would assert there are two separate issues here. you must have probable cause separate from the existence of exits and circumstances. in this case there was probable cause due to the smell of marijuana. >> if they go to the apartment they snapped at every door and when the strong smell of marijuana emanates from the door they go through. but they do it as a matter every two weeks and they don't knock on every door but knock on the doors were they

that a platform of business is much more open to try to find solutions which are not car- related, except for here and there. also, for the population, it is hard. they have in mind, if you are better off to have a car, and have the car in front of your door. it is still a long way to go for us. the mobility plans that local authorities are now obliged to develop, and the hearings that are organized because of that, are almost always concerning parking places. we have now a program where we are having one less car parking space. in the streets, you see, there is one car less because now bicycles can ride their bikes, but the comments are not as enthusiastic. you will have to be from the cycling movement to be happy about that. it is a hard struggle. >> you, sir? >> with health insurance, i think people are realizing it is an idea whose time has come. maybe we're trying to make the same thing with cycling. in the united states, many people, especially in big cities, are much more resistant to the idea, including individual motorists, not just businesses afraid of profit. i am wondering, i

the only exception is if the trees -- and his driveway. the only exception is if the trees are maintained by the department of public works. if not, the responsibility would fall on the property owner. >> a couple questions. one i talked about with the staff before the meeting, but maybe the committee would like to know. i was approached by somebody who had suddenly that i'll leave behind their building had a gate on it, -- the alley behind their building had a gate on it, so it would be nice to know what the process is for coding and gave up, when is it -- for putting a gave up. the second is what is the process for someone who wants to use the sidewalks and outdoor benches to have coffee, not just temporary but on going? >> as it relates to the gate in the alleyway, currently state law prohibits the blocking of public alleyways. that would grant access, unless there is a finding from the city. we have another situation i know of where somebody put up a gate without telling anyone. they are going to purchase the alleyway. when it becomes

one further exception. when i looked at the drawings and i contacted mr. kennedy in -- the sponsor's architect. i brought his attention to the deck which i thought was larger than required was also shown sitting -- sitting on the surface of the roof. since this building la a wall around it and it butts under buildings and you'll have to have one hour fire protection against those other buildings, you would have -- and three feet high, you would of course have to do something to support the weight of the deck that is proposed. to support that weight and that 1357b of 17 feet was going to require some structure underneath. there by raising the height of the deck and the wall, et cetera. >> so, when i spoke with the architect, he seemed to indicate it wasn't an issue. i asked for a -- i asked for a section to examine, he said, he wouldn't -- he couldn't be bothered with it, it was too expensive. i hoped that i was -- i would hear from the architect or the sponsor at some point. this was what our arrangement was regarding these issues. i'm not unsympathetic to

this is truly exceptional. egypt is a very conservative country and the voice of women often goes on her there. the image last week of a woman on the street kissing a soldier to show unity is revolutionary in and of itself. we spoke to women who are daring to stake their claim and fight for their rights. >> the site of women taking part of political demonstrations in egypt is unusual. they have been shunned from political events in the past. egyptian society has become increasingly conservative as to the role of women. men increasingly sexually harass women. but this time, men and women i standing side by side, making their demands together. >> i was afraid of being harassed, but nothing happened. people are looking out for each other and helping one another. there is always someone who watches out for you. people apologize if it gets too crowded. if a man barges into a woman, he apologizes right away. people are looking after each other. we are all together here out on the streets. we have seen so much of each

it did not rise to the level of an exceptional or extraordinary use. commissioner antonini: this is one i am kind of torn on. i certainly see the arguments being made. if this were to pass, i would encourage the product sponsor to try to minimize the impact as much as possible. the only reason i might be supportive is that it is not taking up the whole deck. if it were, i would certainly not be in support of it. commissioner sugaya: i think from my perspective, it is not the rear yard that is the issue. mr. passmore's examination when it came before him for a variance had to do with the relationship to the other buildings. i have not seen the area, but i did look at the stuff online. it is probably pretty jumble up as it is. i do not think that is the issue. the issue is the relationship to the other buildings, and the building across the way, and the fact that this deck is being reduced substantially in size. i would like to stay with the original variance request approved. i think the issues mr. passmore dealt with them are still the issues before us

now, there's been a few exceptions to that, but this most recent exception -- it's not brand new for the federal reserve to be operating in the bond market. >> there's a piece in one of the transcripts in which a certain paul volcker says to his staff, what are we doing with these long-term mortgages in our portfolio? let's get rid of them. and they informed him that the members of the house and the senate, housing market people wouldn't particularly care for that. of but there was just a small amount of mortgages, nothing like the present. >> well, there were -- fannie mae obligations, they weren't directly mortgages which was -- in the federal reserve act, you could buy agencies, and they had bought some. but we did kind of stopped that. >> you stopped buying them. >> we stopped buying them, and i was pulling the leg of the staff, if we're not buying them, why don't you get rid of them? that's what you never know whether there was a smile on my face when i said it or not. [laughter] >> [inaudible] >> since we're talking a bit about government debt and quantitative easing, coming ou

the exception, little valley fog and coastal clouds. the clouds will be with us tomorrow. it will be much cooler tomorrow, and then as we head into monday, tuesday, wednesday, thursday, that's when the showers and rain will continue to move back into our accuweather forecast. satellite radar come pot sit -- composite showing the light fog near the coast, low clouds, a westerly wind component, and this bit of rain here up along the north coast will stay there it will not invade us. we have one more dry day before that rain starts to move in on msms here's a lock at the lows tonight. antioch, 38 degrees. it will be mainly clear with the exception of a lot of that patchy valley fog up towards the napa valley area. so cold there. 45 in san francisco, and 49 in palo alto. here's the setup for tomorrow. hi pressure will bring us one more dry day before the rain moves in on monday. we'll notice clouds associated with the weak system to the north will drift by. so partly cloudy, notice temperatures will come down. and then as we get into sunday night, overnight hours, the clouds w

there is nothing on the eda peninsula that's worth a dead marine except for oil.and, you know, i was saying to somebody earlier today that i have been surprised that americans who fell you israel and its security haven't been among the most aggressive pressing for american energy self-sufficiency because if we do that, we can stop supporting these tyrannies of the muslim world and we can deny some of the glue of unity that holds our enemies together, but it's like everything else in life, it requires leadership and leadership is more than cheerleading, and unfortunately i haven't seen a president since mr. ronald reagan, who is kind of worth a bucket of warm spit when it comes to being a leader. >> i guess we will leave it their folks. thank you for coming.

or was there nothing except an inxoerable deadly silence. and the next reader is rick london. >> i'm going to read a few poems by the palestinian poet mahmud darish. i have the wisdom of one condemned to die. i possess nothing, so nothing can possess me and have written my will in my own blood. oh, inhabitant of my song, trust in water. and i sleep pierced and crowned by my tomorrow. i dream the earth's heart is greater than its mouth, more clear than its mirrors, and i was lost in a white cloud that carried me up high as if i were a hupo and the wind itself my wings. at dawn, the call of the night guard woke me from my dream, from my language. you will live another death, so revise your last will. the hour of execution is postponed again. i asked, until when? he said, wait till you have died some more. i said, i possess nothing, so nothing can possess me, and have written my will in my own blood. oh, inhabitant of my song, trust in water. this last poem has an epigraph, the cypress is the shadow of the tree and not the tree itself, and has

iraq is the counterexample, except that had to have the american military pay a high price to have a democracy which actually exists in iraq. it is one example. lebanon is another. if egypt succeeds, you could have a wave of democracies, as you have in europe, but it requires the extreme caution of the to to so that it does not fall into the wrong hands. >> we have been assuring the affection of mubarak with $1.5 billion annually. a global survey last year indicated that only 17% of the egyptians have a favorable view of the united states. if mubarak goes, you have to keep those numbers in mind. >> no question about it. this is not eastern europe in the sense that the people who stood in the squares of warsaw and prague were quoting jefferson and lincoln and kennedy and, yes, ronald reagan. these are not the leaders being sounded by the people in cairo. >> the government has fomented over time it appears anti- semitic, xenophobic, anti- foreign, and right now that is playing out -- >> at you have to say that mubarak -- any time that anybody push came to be more democratic, he would s

the only exceptions are parental personal beliefs and medical reasons.ters are now required for students of middle school age. the number of whooping cough cases in san mateo county has gone from just ten in 2009 to 183 in 2010. the state is experiencing the most severe outbreak since the 1950s. governor jerry brown's easing overcrowding in state prisons could create a crisis for local jails in the bay area. gr greg monk says they will overflow. the san jose mercury news says such a transfer would increase the inmate population by 40%. he says it could force him to release some prisoners. san mateo county jails are already 120% of capacity. a popular addition to children's parties will be outlawed in one east bay city. we're talking about bounce houses. last week walnut creek voted to ban them. at the heart of the debate is the permit process. here's heather ishimaru. >> the ubiquitous kids' party bounce house is now allowed in only four of 17 public parks on hard surfaces only, not on the grass, with a $40 permit. budget cuts mean there are no longer en

nowhere in the developing world except for a few exceptions, very small countries most of them, is the fertility rate above the replacement rate for the population, in many they're quite far below that. so japan, for instance, will be back to its world war i population of around 55 million people at the end of this century. if nothing radically changes there. that's quite stunning. europe very soon will cross a threshold from when it population is growing, now growing marginally to when it is shrinking. barring some vast change in the number of children people have or this immigration picture. and i don't think those changes are going to happen, and that's something we can discuss too. and then there's another reason why the age demographic of a place can change, and that's immigration. you know, in "shock of gray" i talk about why the age change of the world informs the way money moves, the way people move and the way goods move. and one of the very startling things is the way an aging society encourages younger people to move in and fill in the gaps that are missing. now, we know tha

i'm just getting word that a lot of people are getting except possibly the deputy secretary deputy secretary of state and other sources including quotes from the prime minister of egypt that hosni mubarak is to step down following an all-day meeting of the country's pre-military meeting and all the protesters demand to be meant in any further statements expected later thursday, clarifying the situation. mubarak was also due to address a nation. yesterday's hearing -- >> we will start your time again. the chair would like to remind the audience members that no disturbance of the committee proceedings are allowed and if there is no order, will ask for

the militia force as the police force what do you think about that why do it what's going to change except for the name. of my attitude to this initiative is normal i think that there's some concrete meaning behind this renaming it means transition to new standards of service and new standards of attitude to people i knew model of relationship between law enforcement bodies and citizens runs like a golden thread through this draft in my view it's a transition from the dominant model that has existed all the e.c. is. a partnership going to respect citizen this draft law which is going to be published lays down a totally different concept and stand. them up with until it's how long will it take to carry out this reorganization it's not an easy task there are many law enforcers who just cannot reorganize overnight if it's. some deadlines have certainly been set to allow loren forces to adapt to new service conditions but i don't think that this it dashon period is going to last for too long after the bill is published. we plan to get down to working under new conditions for march the first. y
