harris pointed out, what they're doing is trying to cope with life experiences or situational experiencesare outside the normal range of human experience, and they cannot find relief any other way. and do we know what the percentage is of the individuals that are in the criminal justice system that experience, have experienced trauma? well upward to eighty five percent we know of women in the justice system, same kind of percentage of girls in the juvenile justice system. i think it's just overwhelming, the number of individuals that are traumatized in these systems. and what we're trying to do is to really develop programs where we start to address what happened to you versus what's wrong with you. i think that was your phrase, maxine, that what was wrong versus, what happened versus what's wrong, so we can start to kind of chisel away at what happened so we can start to build people back up with strength-based kind of programming. and i think women are particularly vulnerable because, if you take a look at it on the sexual abuse side, 1 in almost 20, 1 in 4, it is the statistics that i'

being the only american there and i'm very much equating that experience to this experience it might not be as challenging i hope it isn't but. it's it's it's going to be a challenge it's going to be. i'm really going to have to step up to the plate there's a lot of pressure but also i hope i will leave the experience completely enlightened and more textured as a person though let's talk about the ceiling and also the walls i mean you you're here in this theater which was closed for about five years more than five years six years ago it's just opening opening up to reconstruct construction what's your opinion i mean the place i first off i'm amazingly intimidated i think it's. i danced in the theatre once before the renovation and it was it was a memorable experience then but now having come back joining the company as a premiere doing the premiere of sleeping beauty with. it's. it's an intimidating experience but it's so inspiring it's and i'm i'm just as ready as i could be you know for this experience well after nearly six years of renovations well sure theatre is finally open aga

that almost guarantee the next generation is going to have similar experiences. and it goes from one to the other to the other. i want to get back, also getting back to, you've got children, miss cain. are they in a way, have they received treatment with you in terms of working out some of the issues that you've experienced? i have five kids. four of my kids were taken away from me because of the way that i dealt with my trauma, the substance abuse, the convictions, and all the things that were just symptoms of my trauma, the homelessness of 19 years. so, for four of my kids, as i was giving birth to them -and they were born as a result of rapes and prostitution- were taken away from me. so i ended up in a program. finally, i was imprisoned for violation of parole and i was pregnant again, and i was terrified i was about to lose another baby, and then i found out about this program called tamar children, and dr. gillece is one of the founders of this program. and they said it helps you work on your trauma. i didn't know what trauma was. i figured i had it. i had

crafted tutored experience. online is not as good, just like some cd of the artist, that's not as good as having them in my living room. how many living rooms can they visit? stanford has -- >> there are some ways online could be better, right? i mean, some examples like con academy, there's evaluation tools as you progress to understand if the student has gotten some. some proefs use online discussion page where students answer each other questions and learn from each other. there's a website, a new startup called code academy which just launched a learn to code challenge as a new year's resolution and got 100,000 sign-ups in the first couple days, including mayor michael bloomberg. but i think a lot of excitement around classes that are more of a -- that are less lecture and more -- >> particularly at the college level. there's so little interaction on the college level. sometimes in your smaller classes they're better. what about the number of women that are in your classes currently, i mean online or -- >> s

, but change the citizen experience. lastly, we are really blessed that so many of the angel investors an early stage vc's in the market are seeing this as an important place where they want to invest. that is why we have run conaway in the room, tim o'reilly, and many others that realize not only is it important for our country to encourage civic start-ups in order to bring our garment along, but it is also going to be a great business opportunity, place to invest their money. we are excited to have this accelerator and are proud to be part ring with san francisco to bring it to life, to have them teach ideas to launch the doors and have a healthy dialogue around the civic space. with that, i am turning it over to ron. thank you for your support. >> hello, i am ron conaway. i am not sure jennifer was introduced prior. jennifer is the co-founder of code for america with tim o'reilly. the founder. jennifer is our hostess today and we are very thankful. i was born in san francisco, moved to the peninsula, raised my family

it helps them to open up, talk about, and learn to heal from their experience. a relapse doesn't mean you're out and we're done with you. it means you had a relapse, now let's keep going. we've had families where a parent has been close to graduating dependency drug court and has had a slip-up. and the true test of that particular parent is: okay, i made a mistake, i'm done, i'm going to walk away, or okay, i made a mistake, i'm going to reengage immediately and actively do what i've been taught to do, utilize it not only for myself because that's the most important thing, but recovery must be for the individual first and foremost. i remember when i graduated, and she came down off of the bench to come down and take a picture with me. it was, like, a great moment. a judge is actually coming off the bench to congratulate me on being successful. six months prior, the judge had told me that i couldn't take care of my own child. and now they're telling me, "congratulations, you've made it, you're a better person." dr. harris, what can parents do if their child has e

not only the latino experience but especially the immigration experience in a way that objective knowledgeill not give them the more subjective, emotional sensory experience of the art. it gives them an understanding that they can use as they go out to work with their clients. >> you have a special place for this exhibition at the library. >> we do. >> what do you hope that viewers, those who visit the exhibition, that they go home with at the end of their visit there to the library? >> my hope is that they'll be able to have a different perspective on immigration since it is such an important topic for a lot of reasons right now and views that are being talked about. a lot of it is really negative. this is a chance for there to be another perspective on immigration and the experiences. i'm not an immigrant but my parents were. that is part of my interest in my culture. >> we saw the video in the last segment on the marchers for immigration reform. this is a way to kind of lobby for immigration reform but in a visual way. i guess you don't always have to pick up a picket sign and march and

and have that positive experience. it works or it we need to tweak it, we will do more of the. we will work with everybody to enhance it. i think this is worth trying. i think it is time we do this, and it will begin this saturday. i think it is a welcoming thing for everybody that will increase the participation and i think increase the businesses. while the tourist business has increased this last year in the city, certain pockets of our city have not experienced as much as other pockets of the city. so this is yet another way we can do it. i know north beach has some special needs. we can pay attention to that in the very near future. there are other pockets, but this is part of what i wanted e merchant quarters, hear what they had to say, respond in a positive way and experience and experiment with ideas that innovate with our emergence to try to enhance their ability to make a little bit more, and also help with the cultural scene. this year is the year of the dragon. eat you know anything about the dragon, you kn

the idea is to breathe life and experience into the line.is where the art of it is. >> i think so. i teach a lot of workshops, master classes. one thing i am always encouraging students, guitar players to do is to keep the music movement, so that it does not become static. if you have a note you are sustaining for a long time, you want to have something happening. likewise, when you have notes in juxtaposition to one another, there is a dynamic interplay in between the notes, just as there are between musicians. as a solo player, it is important to accent certain notes and contrast the dynamics with others. it is like the concept of quinellas and in painting, a little dots, big shots. >> you can play a note by picking it, but there are a lot of ways by playing a note, and there are a lot of different ways that you can hold it. i wonder if you could demonstrate ways of starting and holding a new. >> i guess the term is articulation. guitar, for example, i will just take a couple notes. ♪ i am not doing much with it here. ♪ i am giving, in tha

my experience was landing by birth into an urban town land.y family, my mother is first generation i'm second generation. my grand mother lived in the apartment building with us. i had aunts upstairs. another aunt lived close by. pretty much 4 days a week my great uncle would come in and visit all of these people my uncle, my grand mother and so forth, all were from a town land called outside of robin. when i was growing up i would hear the names. and they would conjure the sense of another world i was no longer a part of but was connected to. i think the -- i came to the brink of this sort of, you know, really quest gradualy by hearing the names. the other experience i had when i was growing up is music in my grand mother's house. my grand mother live on the first floor of the apartment building the door was open. everyone in the apartment building stopped there after work. they would stop for a drink and play polka, not polka, poker. and lynched to john gibbons play an accordion on his wooden leg. you had the sense of people having come over

it's a once in a lifetime experience or for me yeah it's. going out on to the stage and seeing really. how big it is and now granite is and how beautiful the restoration has been it's it's really once in a lifetime. next up on one of our favorite moscow shows of the year was filmed the star city the cosmonaut training facility originally secret ample space we ventured off to russia's only school for cosmonauts and then i was put through a whole range of training procedures underwater weightlessness zero gravity and being spun around inside a centrifuge. it really pushed me to my limit. the program also highlighted how american astronaut some she calls we know it's now what you call missions so she's the international space station project. to celebrities in twenty seven hour many ages just around the world have made their way to the russian capital to film premieres concerts and private parties moscow sees many of the world's top axes saying it's impossible to come here every week. pushing crowds love them and they didn't seem to be impresse

his lack of experience is not just a lack of experience in foreign policy, it's a lack of experiences a leader. >> he doesn't have a national security answer yet. i mean you could just hear david axelrod saying he's using the olympics as his foreign policy experience? >> he used the term foreign policy, i used the term national security. and as you say he doesn't exactly have appear answer for that yet. that's a hard argument for him to be making when he's asailing president obama as somebody who is a new be and didn't have the experience for the job. >> one thing we've learned about mitt romney is he's not afraid to talk about his opponents, especially the one that seems to -- the one he's gotten under the skip of the most, mr. gingrich. >> yeah, he talked about newt gingrich and i asked him about all these ads. we all know here in iowa those attack ads from the third-party groups have been the undoing of newt gingrich. romney likes to say, look, legally i have no part of these. >> legally. >> but at the same time he isn't voicing his disapproval or disavowing them. take a look. >>

also, food and beverage experience. construction founding and operating different clubs and entertainment organizations. he's also been the former manager of a number of performers like the jets. those of you that may have grown up in the 1980's know a number of the hawaiian bands and the others that he brought to the area. also working with community-based organizations, he's a wealth of experience. i also think that he meets the qualifications of a venue under flash industrial seat for this position and he's the highest qualified person i think that is before us. so i make a motion that we consider steven lee and replace his name in item number 31 and we strike mr. eicher's name. president chiu: is there a second to that? seconded by supervisor avalos. supervisor wiener: thank you, mr. president. i am speaking today in favor of the recommendation of the rules committee, tim eicher, in opposition to the motion to amend. tim eicher came out of the rules committee with a recommendation and he is very qualified for the po

the device is part of the experience.ou cannot experience the image without the device as being part of what you are seeing. whereas with the tv you end up ignoring it. i make gallery work more self and budget and public art work where i have to drop this of indulgence and think about how people will respond. and one of the things i was interested in the work and also a little fearful of, it is not until you get to the first and second floor were the work is recognizable as an image. it is an exploration and perception is what it is. what are you seeing when you look at this image? one of the things that happens with really low resolution images like this one is you never get the details, so it is always kind of pulling you in kind of thing. you can keep watching it. i think this work is kind of experience in a more analytical way. in other words, we look at an image and there is an alice going on. -- and there is an analysis going on. >> i came out to san francisco about seven years ago. i was trained as a carpenter. i g

it was a cathartic experience for me. over the years, i have become a little more analytical.my approach is a balance, and intuitive process where you allow yourself to empty your mind a little bit and let stuff come in so that you can experience what is going on around you in a way and translate that into musical experience. >> it is interesting you talk about emptying your mind. there was a brain imaging study published where my colleague, charles lim, a narrow scientist, put some composers in an mri machine. if any of you have had an mri to see if there was a broken bone or cancer detection, we have a special version called functional mri, wary can track the flow of blood in your brain. we put people in the scanner and we had people mentally practice their tennis serve, catch a late meth problems, or think or listen about music. you can see which regions of the brain are active by following the blood. what charles found is by people improvising or composing, you would expect for something that is that complicated, would require so mineral resources, you would expect a prima

i don't know i guess it's a bit more tricky it's a combination of knowledge experience being aware of the current situation in the country and the world wide and intuition world added together all these things enable you to make the right move. india's labor laws promise full time workers a range of benefits from decent wages to paid holidays but those from the countries poverty stricken regions aren't always so lucky poets have found a legal loophole leaving many workers exploited through the fear of losing their jobs at any moment pressure to report. it's got one of the fastest growing populations in the world and getting india's eager young workforce into skilled jobs is no mean feat business tycoon mini shopper well thinks he has the answer a temp agency that trains and then touts its labor. was existed all over the world temporary stuffing so good but what we've heard somebody of the five minutes for the last five years filling posts and bringing home a paycheck it sounds like a perfect match but for indian firms there are extra more dubious benefits india's tough labor laws make

now, compare that experience to that of a predator drone pilot.re sitting behind a computer screen, you're shooting missiles at enemy targets, you're killing enemy combatants. and then at the end of the day, you get back in your car, and 20 minutes later, you're at the dinner table talking to your kids about their homework. >> hey, guys! >> daddy! >> hi. >> you know, your family is not going to totally understand. you can't explain everything to them. that's a challenge in the job, that you've got to do that day in and day out. >> i went to recess. >> this disconnect of being at war and at home is very tough for the human mind to wrap itself around. and we're finding that some of these drone pilots actually have combat stress, and ptsd, even, just like the units physically deployed into iraq and afghanistan. >> dretzin: there is no question that, as time goes by, more and more of our real experiences are shifting into the virtual realm. the pace can sometimes feel dizzying. >> this is a mirror. >> oh, it's cool. >> you know, there were people who

what is it that you want them to undestand about the dominican experience? >> well, i mean, fortunately, there's also a group of other writers, too. there's, like, angie cruz, nellie rosario, loida maritza perez. i think that the whole thing with literature, from what my standpoint is, and it's going to be personal and limited, is... you know, i mean, at its core, literature is about, you know... for a reader it's about encountering, you know, the human experience. it's about encountering through other people, made up people, fantastic people, distant people, people from other times, encountering yourself. i think that as a dominican writer specifically, i think that, you know, it would be hard for me to generalize what everyone's going to be up to, what's the project of all dominican writers, or even what's the project of the reader who encounters the book. because even readers bring a project to their reading. but i certainly would argue that, you know, the fact that about a million dominicans came to the united states, specifically around the new york cit

it is not to overgeneralized the experience. there is anger and frustration, a lot of things that go on, but there is a tremendous about of love and care. some of was really fortunate to be able to participate in. again, a hearing requested specific. the number of shelter beds unused. how many were turned away at the reservation center on january 18, the current services available, the services available to clients and other jurisdictions that you would want to implement, and what are the health needs? the rest i submit. supervisor wiener: thank you. i would like to co-sponsoring the immemorial -- in memoriam for grace. i joine president chiu to announce the recapitalization of the revolving loan fund that was established in 2009 at a time not a lot of capital available to small businesses, a terrible economy, businesses failing. it has been a significant success since it started. 27 businesses have received loans from $5,000-$50,000 a total of almost $750,000. it has been a really strong partnership. last year, i was proud to j

my experience is in leadership. the people in the private sector who are every day making this country a stronger nation and hiring people, they're not successful because they're managers. they're successful primarily because they are leaders. i wish people in washington had the experience of going out and working in the real economy first before they went there and they'd understand some of the real lessons of leadership. >> let me bring speaker gingrich in. a group supporting you, one run by one of your closest long-term advisers has put out a scathing attack just today on governor romney. on his tenure as the ceo of that investment firm bain capital. it calls that tenure a story of greed, that's a quote, saying that bain made spectacular profits by, again, quote, stripping american businesses of assets, selling everything to the highest bidder and often killing jobs for big financial rewards. do you agree with that characterization? >> well, i haven't seen the film, but it does reflect "the new york times" story

not the face hostage or any pain this experience what zero g. feels like to battle times under the loops the views from above are impressive but it felt different to a typical commercial flight. program called moscow nine one one. explore the police fire and ambulance emergency services in the machine capital we saw how such facilities are constantly at the ready twenty four hours a day. and of course such a program involved lots of action sequences. water. finally the action sequences. action sequences represented by filmmaking and. explore the most film studios and we're invited to set up a new career and shazam drama called white tiger. the program finished off the stunts must go well i was asked if i would like to participate. so you can ship and take shots i was given. structure. was placed on my. cream was applied to my face with everything ready for my back and legs of my suit and the flame. to be tried. as an efficiently run program it's already prepares its students to safely undertake to define feats the world of russian cinema and t.v
