we probably would not oppose a high fence. she does not look like she is in an opposing mood tonight. president peterson: thank you. mr. sanchez? >> thank you. briefly, in regards to the proposal from the permit holder on the west side only, only facing the appellant property, we think that is something that would be best achieved by the board at amending the permit and adding that as a condition. i think this is something that really calls for the authority of the board to make a decision on. commissioner garcia: that does not represent an intensification of legally noncompliance structure? if the >> is board finds it does not predict -- >> if this board finds it does not. commissioner garcia: okay, thank you. mr. sanchez, if this board were to decide instead that esthetically plants might be better, how would something like that it and forced overtime? >> that is extremely difficult for the department to enforce any type of vegetative requirement. it is difficult to require anybody to water and fertilizer and what type of sp

was moreoney -- being done on at the fence. was more money put into the fence, and what is the status of that? >> there is not money for in thisa fence suppmental. we have built a fence at to an extent that exceed appropriations. in our view, the offense is there. but that is only part of this. -- the fence is there. but that is on the part of this. as i said when i was governor, show me a 15 foot fence and i will show you a 16 foot ladder. we need the infrastructure, but we also need theechnology and the manpower to back it up. >> so you are saying that it is only 6 miles srt of completion. >> tha is right. i may be corrected, but i believe that 6 miles is in litigation. >> you said there is money in the bill for incarceration and prosecution. is that record deportation straining your existing resources? >> it is fair to say that it was. one of the things about this bill that is as significant is that it recognizes that this is system. it is a system that crosses the federal department. u're going to increase efforts on border

sometimes people sit on the fence, and they sit on the fence for a long time and they wonder, "i don't"you never regret what you do, you only regret what you don't do." my favorite story of that is, i was dancing with somebody at my 30th high-school reunion and telling her how much i wanted to go out with her in high school and i was afraid to call her because i knew she wouldn't, she was too beautiful, and she said, "if you'd have only called me, i'd have been glad to go out." i said, "what are you talking about? you really would have gone?" she said, "of course, i always thought you were great." so i said, "you don't regret what you do, you regret what you don't do." and we have so many missed opportunities. we don't want you to miss an opportunity. i can imagine using these wisdom tools that we've been talking about -- watching the dvd on a quiet evening, either alone or -- not with my family, my husband. using it as a way to reexamine how we've been with each other, thinking of the book as a study guide and trying to do one of the "do the tao now" activities each week. what about b

i did not see chain-link fences. i saw wrought iron fences.aw small, beautiful fences surrounding the planted flowers. i saw layers as it relates to how things are planted. they were in different layers come in different shapes. it reminded me candidly of traveling in europe a little bit. when i was younger, going to paris. i was on my way to meet the mayor, and i marked my expression of appreciation, and he said that he stole all the ideas from paris. and i was there many years ago, and i came back thinking the same thing. why do we have all these chain- link fences? why don't we create a discipline around the different aesthetic for our city? it took almost a decade. it did not happen overnight, but it took years and years of a disciplined effort. when changes were made, they were made with a basis and an understanding that there needed to be a certain aesthetic. it was not about costing more money. it was not about being so close. it was not about being -- sort of getting away from the core values, and the core functions of government. from

take a look, people are rushing over, climbing over and the fence falls down!o many people, we will take get another different video from this side it shows people hopping over that fence to get in. you can see. to stop those people from getting into the concert for free. if you'd like to look at this? www.kron.com >> and now, people of the daniel villareal went back to the side of the musical festival today to check on the clean up. >> here, at the golden gate park it is clean up time after the music festival. >> it was all about packing up, cleaning up after the music festival. with various crews had different duties and his crew worked on tearing down the stages and his crew walked and even crawled on the lawn to pickup the smallest bits of garbage. vendors picked up all of their boots and loaded gun into the truck and was also this jobs. -boots. and also, this fence needed to be cleaned up, and also, this is expected to be back to normal by the middle of this week. daniel villareal >> and a live look of the traffic, the golden gate the right side is going t

they tend to attack the fence. you can see the kids running in. i was wondering if this is something we can address next year since it happens every year since the festival started. they kind of hit the same spot. maybe that is something. >> thank you for both comments commissioner. somebody who was tired and bleary on monday morning. i appreciate your comments about sunday night headliner, which was terrific. kings of leon. i am not in the music business. we leave the booking of talent to the event producer as i am sure you appreciate there are a myriad logistical challenges. but i will pass along the sggeds that we try to have a bigger name entertainers on saturday night. and i think this year with respect to security they had two lines of fencing this year. my report although you might have seen incidents of febs jumping. that will likely happen at any event or concert. i am told by the san francisco police department that this year the crowd was well behaved and security was thoughtful as it has ever been. >> my comment regarding sunday is the

that leads to the fence of the terminal which you can see has a gangplank along this edge which provides direct access to the ship. the result naturally lends itself to being compatible with the historic pierre fabric because it is a piece of the pure fabric -- pier fabric. we have talked about reusing some of the structural elements for liking, preserving the memory of the pier in the shape of the resulting plaza. you can see some of these structural elements. we are toying with putting wind turbines on top of them. if you hang out in that area, you know we have a fair amount of wind. the edge of the existing building, which has a 4.5 ft difference, is creating a public speaking arrangement. this shows the end of the building, which recalled its front porch, which opens to the plaza and can open up on special events. we would actually activate that area. the entry to the building, going into security. a way finding element which would have signed inch -- signage. a sense of the inside space looking back out toward the plaza toward security. inside, looking north. this is the cbt process

it is something that anchors the security fence which could possibly be a small retail

is that a wall, a fence, or a combination? it is important to remember the civic responsibility our city has to the waterfront. the importance of this area and the need to replace certain parking lots with developments that benefit the port and city and create visible neighborhoods -- there has been more than enough public input during a number of meetings. i urge you to put it to use and move forward with progress along the west side of the embarcadero. if i may, i have heard a few references to an alternative plan this evening. i advocate you please not consider this plan was created behind closed doors, representing a special interest pursuing their own agenda. hundreds of san franciscans have made a good-faith effort, spending many hours attending meetings and submitting commons for a transparent study that considers the entire community's point of view. i respectfully request to move forward with that plan. president fong: matt harris? >> good evening. i am in north beach resident. i have been at most of the meetings and

was real, we get ensure every inch of the fence was real, not virtual. -- ensure every inch of the fence was real, not virtual. a lot of people said, my goodness, the senate is horrible, we are not going to get anything. we kept trying to calm people down, saying, wait for conference. that is a big step. you cannot just look at a bill and say that is it. there are all kinds of steps going on. if what you care about is not in the basic bill, it does not mean that it is over. that means you work to find the champion to will advance your cause. at this point, rather than focus on the specifics that need to be in the bill, the important thing is focusing on the fact that congress needs to do it, and the rest will naturally follow if we have the political pressure to get the different parts that people care about in. >> bill, you gave us a reality check earlier about what we can expect in a cir bill. what needs to happen, what is likely to happen before a bill is authored? what compromises to you think will be made? >> mary and i are friends, but let me respond to her because i think she was

all that debt here they've no none of that ring fencing so all the crux there are still in place there and what had been known as ring fenced the crux i know you think you're a pessimist but you're actually an optimist it's actually worse. the reason you change gimmick the accounting rules is so that these guys can still pay their bonuses to themselves right so this was a big lesson from the savings along crisis was not to act more ethically but how do we change the law so that next time we do the same fraud we won't get caught is that a fair assessment yet worse than that again because after the savings and loan crisis we passed the proper corrective action law which mandates the closure of these insolvent banks but if we did have this what we told them as a huge achilles hold the heel and that is if you give me the accounting rules you can get make the proper corrective action law and that's what's happened that's the japanese strategy of covering up we sold bad assets promptly and that allowed markets to recover and what we call a clear if you keep a huge overhang of the inventory t

, whether it's metal fencing which you can buy at any hardware store or plastic fencing. just put it up and over the years renters and building owners have been held responsible to meet the standards of today's safety, especially for decks and stairs. so for those of you who have rental units, i encourage you to upgrade your stairs and your spacing so that you have good hand rails and spacing where people can't slip through because that's -- well, it's not in the code as a requirement. it comes up from the results of lawsuits and so on that that is really the expectation of a building owner. ok. here's one of those stairs we're talking about. talking about this meeting the wood frame building. will they -- well, they expand and contract and settle and they always leak. you could build it so it couldn't leak with the right kind of flashing, it would be a real challenge. >> the way to do that is put the stairs and have things going around that cover that for the stucco so the stucco goes down on top. but basically the situations that we come across are ones where it's dying

for instance, odors that go past the fence line and can affect people that live adjacent. the biggest thing is making sure that we maintain permit compliance. we have always been proud of our waste water system and we want to maintain it so that it stays in high regard with the state. i have asked humphrey to come up to talk about the technology sector and that fit best with the workshop. this would give to the question of the new technology that we are looking at. he will spend a couple of moments going through this with you. >> good morning, commissioners. this is a brief overview of the innovative technologies we have considered in the recommendation. typically agencies look at innovative technologies but when there is a regulatory driver probabl. also when we need to repay -- replace our aging facilities. in addition to these drivers, there are other reasons to have innovative technologies. this table summarizes the potential benefits that these technologies can give us. they are more or less in line with the bottom line criteria position to to giving us better treatme

our client has agreed to build a fence and maintain the trees that blocked any views. we hope that this expansion will not affect the construction of the buildings adjacent. engineering issues that have been raised will be addressed by the department of building inspection, however we have our engineer to address any questions. no extraordinary circumstances has been shown. no variances are required. the project is consistent with the neighborhood. this involves development and will create a modest family size tom's. this is an opportunity for a neighborhood to share the city's efforts, therefore we ask that you deny the request. >> speakers in favor of the project. >> commissioners, i am the project architect. i would like to clarify several items. first, the building is 42 inches, this is not over 40. for the second item, i would like to clarify the size of lot. the interpretations show the graph right here and they indicate a lot was 1750. this is from the street corner. for an area outside of this, it could be part of that large lot area. that means that this canno

it's better to have a dog on a leash than having a dog go out the hole in the fence. my feeling is, doesn't the dog need to be housebroken first? obviously an untamed dog will go through the hole in the fence, but, you know, my feeling is if you're in a good marriage, then why would you need to go through the hole in the fence in. >> isn't it what -- it's our right as women, we have to cross our legs. it doesn't matter the reasons why. it could be a pregnancy or a hard time in our life and we love our partner. he still has urges while our legs are crossed. negotiate an alternative for him. that's very important if you love someone and you want them to be happy. >> holly, hold on a second. bethenny is spreading her legs. >> we have urges too. i don't think for the rest of my life i would only be attracted to my husband if i saw someone else. i would not act upon it. the reason i'm succeacuccesssuc you put into something is what you get out of it. >> where there's a real housewife there's a real mistress. trust me. this is a new reality show -- >> you sound very bitter.

the israeli military said they were working to maintain the fence along the border which they did not cross. the military said the lebanese army is responsible for the incident. lebanese president michel suleiman held israel accountable and said it would complain to the u.n. security council. in the skirmish three soldiers and one reporter were killed on the lebanese side while one army officer was confirmed dead on the israeli side. the fighting did not continue for long as the united nations worked with both sides to restore calm. however, both armies are still on full alert as the tense standoff continues. now, the u.n. security council has expressed deep concern about tuesday's deadly clashes between israel and lebanon. the council's rotating chair, russian u.n. ambassador vitaly churkin held a news conference on tuesday after the closed-door meeting. >> the members of the security council called on all parties to practice utmost restraint, strictly abide by their obligations under resolution 1701, observe the cessation of hostility, and prevent any further escalation on the blue
