flexible, britain has been entirely to flexible. —— flexible, britain has been entirely too flexible.iscussed the trade element, there's more on that to come. janet, while you are here, you talk about soundings taken from people very much inside westminster, your view, this week as to theresa may herself, how long she will hold this out, we are always interested to ask for inside news on this on dateline? she will carry through with the negotiation period because they could not switch horses in midstream but i don't think she will carry on to the next election. if you want my tip as to who will be the leader of the conservative party, i would say, sajid javid, who has played a blinder, his move this week to make that extraordinarily open and generous offer to eu citizens living in britain, now home secretary, interior minister. he has made an offer to eu citizens, which has wrong—footed brussels, really, because they have made no similar offer to british citizens, that was not only very civil and generous, but it was also tactically brilliant, because of the effect, it is now morally

the quiet increases state forward but of course it requires the russian side some flexibility to for instance the transceiver the tools to rush into ukraine via ukraine to europe this is one the sure because understanding the sensitivity is that it's quite clear that ukraine has some billions transit fees and losing everything is not fine for the president is that is. the i think this is this is one the way where american people didn't seem to agreed maybe not finally but there is a good good way forward but from what i understand even prior to that there the russian leadership suggested that they are not actually against keeping some part of transit through your crane i mean they they want that to be you know safe and secure and they don't don't want ukraine to use that as a leverage or as a bargaining understandable but it depends also a little bit on the quantity of this has to be negotiated and they are i want to seize on these issue of flexibility because if you keep referring to the ukrainian issue as you are still in our major stumbling block towards a referendum on the three

have you seen many states that have taken advantage of this new flexibility in a good way? >> a number of the states are actually approaching this question with some level of creativity, and intentionality to ensure that this information is widely shared, and that it is very accessible to students and parents. i think gerber will meet the road in the next year or so, when they actually have it fully implemented, and i know that we have continued to encourage states to seize all of the opportunities they have for flexibility in those areas and will continue to do so. i think as states implement them, there will be pushing it will be a variation of approaches, and hopefully states will learn from one another. >> let's turn this back over to the chairman, but it would be fair to say, wouldn't it, that we are not likely to get a fair and complete teacher of how the state plans operate until we see them actually operate. some of the questions the senators have about whether states are doing what senators and congressmen -- it will be clearer. >> senator baldwin. >> thank you. se

we tend to think of flexibility not increasing productivity. are all these disciplines about the science of learning. why are we thinking that we work differently? carol: you work with a lot of companies. what is the dialogue? >> we have been around for two years, and the conversation has dramatically shifted. we really help companies understand that flexibility or lack thereof underlies everything they look at. some things are obvious, like diversity, retention, the ability to hire quickly. that's a tough factor for millennials. but what about health and wellness, innovation? all these things that are controlled by a lack of flexibility. if people can operate the way they want to and need to be productive, we could re-factor our real estate costs. we have a database assessment that helps companies better understand the needs of their population. needs, not wants. that is very important. it is not, do you want to work from home on friday? what would enable you to work fast? that stuff is set out. it is an algorithmic assessment. it helps compan

also the title iv funds for which there's great flexibility. all part of the forward-looking focus of this commission and the recommendations. the result should have surprised exactly no one. eachnt top ensure that community is able to answer and unique tois situation their circumstance. >> i am sure others will come onk to that so let me move left.y and 1:30 i have on pell grants, you're talking grants to beg pell used for certification programs in theer programs that short time programs in the past we have not allowed pell grants to be used. am supporting of that. i would like to hear your those shorterhow term certification programs would be defined. defined and how pell grant eligibility would help prepare that work force. >> thank you. there are many opportunity force students to pursue shorter term program and certification and that will get them to the work force to a and track forh whatever their interests may be. and so, our proposal is to high quality short-term programs and do so in to puttion with congress the appropriate guardrails

what type of flexibility would address the problem?nal metrics is that job driving? it comes down to dollars and cents. jason: you alluded to this. the conversation has changed. what was the catalyst for that? ceos and people who manage these operations everyday. >> number one, labor productivity has been stagnant. there was a great research report that shows productivity is at 4.5%. we cannot ring the towel anymore. we can i get more out of our people. companies are -- we cannot get more out of our people. companies are asking how they manage that overtime. i think there is a social conversation. it is hard to deny what is happening in the public sphere in terms of diversity, women in leadership. i like to think of it that the light is on for leadership. there's a lot of forces that are driving profitability, but also a lot of social forces that allow this to happen. carroll: up next, the computer that talks. jason: the ceo of airbus ventures tells us about his new venture and -- his new investment in space catapult. carol: this is bl

also the title iv funds for which there's great flexibility. all part of the forward-looking focus of this commission and the recommendations that will follow and as states and communities develop their plans and programs these funds will be available for proven solutions, ones that have been enacted in and certain places that have proven effective and we are there. we want to support those activities and ensure that each community is able to answer and address this situation unique to their circumstances. >> i am sure others will come back to that so let me move on quickly in the minute and 30 second i have left. on pell grants, you're talking about allowing pell grants to be used for certification programs and other programs that in the short time programs that in the past we have not allowed pell grants to be used. i'm supportive of that and would like to hear more of your thought of shorter term certification programs would be defined and how pell grant eligibility would help prepare that work force. >> well, thank you. we know that fewer a

, seamless collaboration across agencies, and really a focus on being flexible and resilient. we don't know what the future holds as far as transportation, but we do know we're going to need to be resilient for climate change, we're going to need to be flexible for what happened in the region going forward. really excited about this plan. thank you so much for your work. >> president hillis: commissioner koppel? >> commissioner koppel: also on board with this. that happenings f thanks for the hard work and great report. i think we should keep that tunnelling machine here as long as we can, send it to gear. electric transportation is the way to go, and as much as we humanly can, and super excited to see the report, and looking forward to hearing more. >> president hillis: just a question on this. like, where's the state these days on this, just the overall thinking with caltrain and high speed rail? i know the governor was -- >> yeah. well, high speed rail is part of the larger state transportation agency. they are moving ahead. the next important step in this amongst many is w

to this requires a lot of flexibility this is not the question i think it is. and what we need is especially in foreign policy i think there is more need for speed really i think reaction i think. to say dutiful for the european union and. the situation is improving it is fishy to be around. mostly done and mediated do you. think we could see more of that of course. to pull the one kid alone deliver a peace agreement in middle east or with iran the world with the with ukraine or with the north korean leader. and the intake important good players just what i meant by ideological pre-disposition of the european union is their tendency to prize the democracy agenda every everything else for example in libya mania and number of european countries when they're hoping to do you good thing i think we can agree that those good intentions were not fulfilled if europe had that greater cloud and global interactions that you talked about or that you wrote about do you think that decision would have taken do you think just as eagerly sided with some of the other foreign pol

however, these proposed amendments do provide more flexibility in fullling the t.d.m. measure. this is for the second t.d.m. measure. developers of very large projects provided feedback that the differences between the requirements of the active two bicycle parking options were disproportionately allocated for the residential land use category compared to the categories of the other land uses. under the current requirements, the difference between option a, the planning code, compliant bicycle parking and option b more than doubled the amount of class one bicycle parking spaces required by the project over 100 dwelling units. as of now, option a requires one class 1 bicycle parking space perdwelling unit, up to 100 dwelling units. option b requires oness lae bicycle space perone dwelling unit. option c requires 1.5 class one bicycle parking spaces perunit. we're proposing to amend this measure to more proportionately allocate the number of class one bicycle parking spaces required for residential -- for projects of the residential land usecategory. option a would stay the same,

administration is ready to be flexible on this bus for sure flexibility on both sides will be the key word because. usually people focus on the military security aspect of the nuclear weapons so north korea wants the government from the united states that the united states will not attack the regime with nuclear and they're going to be consummated no guarantee of being fulfilled right of course of course i mean probably some kind of consciousness or a confidence building measure like scaled down the joint exercises with south korea will be a sign of goodwill or also a peace treaty will be a very important. and of goodwill towards this reassurance but this is just part of the problem because for north korea today the economic development is as important as the nuclear development this is made this very clear when he launched his political line called beyond in based on two pillars nuclear weapons and economic development so i think that they could also taking care of their own people and the economic development of the counter is important for can some go and he wants something on this

they have much for flexibility on how they make decisions. it might transfer to the traditional districts it's just the ability that the leaders have to take advantage of that flexibility and assembled a team of like-minded educators that are bogging down the schools of philosophy. >> what would encourage a teacher to choose a charter school over a traditional public-school? >> i would think that it would be the ability to teach with others that have bought into the same educational philosophy. we know leadership is a quite heavy influence on whether the teachers want to stay in a given school so it woul that would bee opportunity to work with a strong leader but in terms of what is most distinct i think again it is the ability of the leader and a group of teachers to establish a common educational position and a work towards that together. >> when we talk about charter schools and children being trapped in low performing schools rather than giving the select few a different choice, the response ought to be the lower schools and i think it is

i'm in disagreement with supervisor sheehy that the funds should be flexible. i think the fact is that our children go to school every day, monday through friday, and even though i understand that you are making capital improvements, i don't think it's adequate enough. in my district, we have -- we have requests for crossing guards on corridors that actually, i think, require a human being to stop the traffic. my husband was a traffic cop for nine years, a police officer for 35, but all he did was strict enforcement on a solo motorcyclist. people do not stop at stop signs people do not yield for pedestrians. he said he is able to give tickets one after another not yielding to pedestrians. when we think about our children going to school themselves, this is crucial. and i actually think that the proposal of having crossing guards on a 20-hour workweek with benefits, makes it an opportunity also for some of our seniors to gain employment that is not only worthwhile and socially fulfilling, but also meet some of the basic requirements of them to be able to live he

and they want flexibility. >> exactly.piece of feedback that i got was having benefits would be very nice, but it is all about the flexibility. the are not competing with the black cabs we have in the city because they are competing with mini cabs. this is the opportunity for them to be there own boss and work when they want. that is a number one thing they want to keep. caroline: this does not end the legal battles in the u.k. when it comes to the drivers, there are still some hurdles in terms of giving them not just insurance packages, but more benefits. >> potentially, yeah. this is battle one of two of this year. battle two will be in october when they will be in court over employment. uber lost their appeal about employment rights, holiday pay, vacation pay, and we briefly recently had another company with plumbing. it is a little different than ride-hailing. it was called pimlico plumbers, workers washeir given the right to vacation pay. of so, you know, it is one the first times we have seen anything like that. so o

it's highly flexible funding. we want to make sure there's actually prevention and treatment that's covered, but avied from that, the states have tremendous flexibility to subcontract with whomever. >> and i would just jump in from the medicaid program side, i'm sure you're familiar with the early and periodic screening diagnostic and testing. it's mandated they provide prevention and other types of services for children and adolescents up to age 21. so that's another way through the medicaid programs and the flexibilities they have and resource there is that they can do that. >> that's helpful. >> i just want to emphasize, a couple weeks ago, the president issued an executive order on youth sports participation. i look at this as a great opportunity to provide opportunities not just for youth sports participation in underserved communities but to have that as a platform for health in general that we could state many messages about appropriate nutrition and opioids, et cetera. >> thank you. ms. brant, i wanted to

i didn't have that flexibility in our budget. we did have a vacant custodian position. that's what the temporary exchange and we're here today to ask that that exchange be made permanent. that's the position a we need at the moment. which is not to say that we don't need additional custodians. in our oater budget, we have made substitution so that we have custodians. it's constantly -- it is little bit. you're responding to where the work flow gap is at the moment. >> supervisor cohen: so, that means there's gap in on the custodial level? >> what we could have done supervisor in other method to do this, it would have ended up with us in the same place. to have filled that custodial position last year but not to have had the payroll clerk. meaning lot of positions may not have gotten into the field. instead we took the vacant custodians position and made payroll clerk. we made another position substitution, i don't think the budget natural had a problem with to return that custodians position into our budget. it was a temporary change designed to meet mid-year weakness t

and it allows the goods to be flexible -- grids to be flexible.: michael, when will my home and car be run on batteries, and every home and car, is that in the future? michael: it is one of the only sustainable solutions. if we are looking at true zero emission technologies, or an ecosystem where you start with renewable power and you make it relevant, and you use environmentally friendly batteries, like we were talking about, to balance and dispatch that power and responsibly use that power for transportation or led lighting systems in homes, that ecosystem i believe is the only sustainable ecosystem in the future. we cannot depend on finite fuels that believe air and water. we have to turn more to renewable power to be relevant. the companies that will select those will stay relevant in the future. emily: michael, john, logan, thank you all. new details have emerged about the self driving uber that struck and killed a pedestrian. a new report from the arizona police department in tempe says the safety driver was distracted and a streaming a tele

we want to continue to use the examiner but have the chronicle there for flexibility and emergency when needed. >> emergency and for other specific reasons that need to be documented. >> well, for reasons of necessity. so if there's some reason that the department cannot plan in advance, which we expect them to do, but if they can't for some reason that they have this other way of advertising their meetings. we just want to keep an eye on it. >> okay. supervuzer -- supervisor ronen made a motion to amend and it was seconded by supervisor kim. colleagues, can we take the amendment without objection? without objection the amendment passes. on the item as amended, can we take that same call? without objection, the resolution as amended is adopted unanimously. madame clerk, let's go to our committee as a whole, our first committee as a whole. items 50 through 52, please call those items. >> items 50 through 52, the special order at 3:00 p.m., the board of sup-- supervisors will amend as a whole. the subject matters of u -- of items 51 and 52, amendment for the redevelopment project area and

if we look closer to the robotic leg, we can see the ankle here is very flexible.pying every movement you are doing. so the first problem you have got is, when you are kicking a football you have to open your arch. i followed the advice, it went to the right point of the net, i'm almost a professional! i've made it to an actual football pitch, albeit a five—a—side one, and i'm joined by the click team, what you think of our kit? good, aren't they? i need to do a bit more practice. they are kicking the ball around the old —fashioned way that i've a smart football here, and i've got an app with some augmented reality built in. i've never done this before in my entire life. and i wanted to speed it up. 0k, toe—taps. dribble up runs you through training suitable to your ability. after placing the ball in position the app will scan it and assess your every move. it's all gone red, i think i'm doing it wrong. i'm not sure this isn't footbal! i've never seen anyone train for football by doing this before. strangely, it didn't seem to think i had done too badly. i'm assumi

so parliament needs to be flexible, parliament needs to be flexible, parliament needs to be flexible,to react. i think what is interesting is that although in some ways, christopher chopra was trying to stop this in its tracks, it seems to stop this in its tracks, it seems to have greater determination than ever by government ministers to make sure this gets on the statute books in england and wales, to make it ta kes a in england and wales, to make it takes a oliphant, which could see offenders going to jail for up to two years. —— make it a criminal offence. i think that was an important thing from her, but it still has to overcome parliamentary obstacles, now as far as i am aware christopher chope is not in favour of the practice of upskirting, his ugly doesn't like the parliamentary procedure in which some of these bills, in his view, do not get enough scrutiny. —— simply doesn't like. so the whip will speak to him to try to get him to withdraw this measure to get this bill by temp when mike —— by vera hobhouse to become law as soon as possible. the united states and china have mo

in order to accomplish this goal, arpa-e was given a unique management structure with flexibility to start and stop research projects that are no longer achieving individual goals. expedited hiring and firing authority to make sure that rpa e staff could adequately select and support projects, and the tools to identify market challenges that could affect the advancement in project technologies. however, we have all heard of the concerns of arpa-e. the first is the worry that this is just one more of the same from d.o.e. with the energy efficiency and renewable energy program office funded at over $2.3 billion, it's easy to see why some would ask if we need another clean energy program. second, we have all heard of concerns over the years that arpa-e wasn't meeting its intended goal, to fund the kind of technologies that are so innovative they would never attract private sector investment. but was instead provided funding to big companies access to market capital, or funding research that was already under way in other federal agencies, or in the private sector. the science committee

. >> and the question i would -- or maybe direct staff, at what point do we have flexibility to add in more up-to-date topics? not only commissioner courtney may have an issue, but given this administration, we may want to highlight another component which is a lower level. i want to see what type of flexibility we have, because this is sort of the building block, but there may be an opportunity to take a deeper dive in certain areas. so maybe what we can do is come back as part of this and get some commitment in areas where we want to take a deeper dive and we have that flexibility. >> certainly. i think that's still possible and wouldn't hold up moving forward today. i think we can come back and be specific where the touch points should go deeper and for review and lay it out in a timeline going forward, four years on this agreement. >> commissioner vietor: i concur with what's been said and i appreciate your efforts, because i think it's a very exciting project with a lot of potential. let me add on to whatever it looks like, but i know we've had some conversations around the waters

let's focus on having a more flexible, efficient, faster tool for this technical defense or hunting piece, because we know exactly what we're looking for on those things. you only want the data sets that are going to tell you about your key risk, the ransomware, your suspicious activities and that thing should be a lot more flexible now working with only those limited data sets to where you can get the timely information you need. you can do the proper correlations and you can make sure you're not getting distracted by all the other things. lastly on the storage side, , io this in you because i think with security intelligence and you start talk about getting to a predicted state, there's a big correlation between security analytics and data analytics or data science. i put this in here specifically because in indiana we have been able to explore and do some things around data analytics and data science on the human population, health and human services area. and the architecture that is in place for those types of systems are tuned and they are use case specific for very large data sets

this adds some flexibility so that during earthq you'll get movement but not collapse. that gets strengthened even more when we go over to the steel frame to support the upper floor. >> so, potentially the wood and the steel -- it sounds like a fairly straightforward process takes your odds of collapse from one in 4 to one in 30? >> that's exactly right. that's why we're hoping that people will move quickly and make this happen. >> great. let's take a look. so, let's talk steel frames. tell me what we have going on here. >> well, we have a steel frame here. there are two of these and they go up to the lower floor and there is a beam that go across, basically a box ts much stiffer and stronger. ~ goes so that during the earthquake the upper floor will not collapse down on this story. it can be done in about two weeks' time. voila, you're done. easy. >> for more information on how to get your building earthquake ready,

it's just by having the list, we have the flexibility to -- or it just expedites the process because then the office of contract administration is comfortable that this list has a rationale and has criteria that we've developed. which we did, i think, in 2015 and brought here about why something is on the list. i'm not arguing. i'm just telling you. if we do enter into a contract with someone that is not a vendor, it will come before you as a contract. >> i still wouldn't be able to vote, though. >> commissioners, i just got a quick confirmation that it does make sense, commissioner, for you to ask to recuse yourself from a vote. and my understanding is that the commission needs to honor that request by honoring a request to recuse before you vote. >> correct. so, when we get to the consent calendar, we'll take the sole source report out of the calendar and then we'll deal with it separately. >> great. thank you. >> commissioner sanchez. >> again, i -- could you again just sort of summarize in essence we've already had a process. as you shared initially thats this review process is s
