and joe garrity, wow. john veranda is still the cutest guy on the department. ok. thank you. now i better get my butt home. thank you. >> good evening, sir, how are you? >> good evening, commissioners, mr. harrison. i'm here to speak on behalf of my brothers children who cannot right now speak for themselves. once again, my brother charles harrison was murdered january 2011 of this year. his murderer is still unsolved. we have not been contacted in the last month as to an update to where the case is, so if somebody can get in contact with us to let us know, i just wanted to say that you notice the streets of san francisco are not safe as long as a man can open fire and gun somebody down, not in broad daylight at night but on video and the incident is caught on video. so we are planning businesses in san francisco. we're planning boating events in san francisco, but the people who were asking to come to san francisco and patronize san francisco are not safe, as long as you have people that will brazenly gun down people and take their lives. so i'm not going to be long. i just

captain garrity said publicly that shoplifting was up 53%. year to date in his district. of course he handles, as you know, union square, and that's where the rings are. i'm also not sure the exact number of homicides we've had this year. i'm thinking like 30. >> i believe it's 28. >> thank you, sir. >> thank you. next speaker. >> commissioner, ray hart, inspector san francisco open government. my comments are more general in the sense that the reports that are issued and provided to you and the members of the public during this session are for both your use as a commission but also for the members of the public to know what's going on and sometimes the reports have a lot of statistics which a member of the public would have no context in which to judge them. a recent discussion of the police commission had two members advocating setting goals with the new police chief. other members, one in particular, said it would not be a good idea because it would be micromanaging the department. simply agreeing on objectives is not micromanaging. telling the chief how to achieve tho

." >> tom: they are impressive numbers, according to gba research analyst david garrity. >> these are phenomenal. these are stronger than we saw around the year-end holiday shopping period in the fourth quarter. certainly a clear indication consumers are choosing the areas where they wish to spend and they're continuing to support that. >> tom: in after-hours trading, apple shares surged as much as 7%, crossing over $400. suzanne pratt looks at whether apple will remain delicious for investors. >> reporter: apple users are pretty passionate about their gadgets. stop an iphone, ipad or mac owner on the street and you get this: >> the diverse range of things that you can do on it is fanstastic. i mean, it's everything i ever needed it for. >> i love my laptop. i can't live without it! >> reporter: that enthusiasm, however, is less evident lately in the performance of apple stock. sure the shares are up a respectable 16% this year to an all-time high, but in the previous two years, when the stock was the apple of wall street's eye, the shares more than tripled. experts say investors toda

and then lastly, there's been some reports in the news on ksbs and ktvu an announcement captain garrity made he had gone from 101 officers to 74 officers in the tenderloin which upset the people in the tenderloin as they feel the climb -- feel crime is on the rise and we rechecked the numbers and sounded strange since i know tenderloin station traditionally has been right around 82 officers, plus or minus. i checked, noticed there were 83 officers, not at 70 some odd. unfortunately he does have eight officers that are at various stages of recovery from disability but as soon as they're back, they'll be back. and tenderloin continues to be a focus of our attention as it's very adjacent to sixth street and will stay that way. i wanted to reassure the people of the tenderloin, there have never been 101 officers there, at different points in time it's perhaps the confusion was the market's foot beats worked out of there originally before they were assigned to southern. it doesn't really matter where they're working out of, they're working market street regardless and then at other times whe

pacific said about charles crocker, he was a living, preteen, wadley monument , whose viciousness, pull garrityand dishonest. okay, i'm up against masters here. compared to the kinds of things they said, what i say is quite mild. many of the things they do say, thomas durrant is probably the nicest thing anybody ever said about him. so i'm not coming i do see them come that i'm pretty much the courses that i have. the two books were probably dominate most about what these railroad corporations relate were popular literature. joseph spoken also of coors that the opera fare. my main differences by guys weren't nearly as competent. i think what you tend to happen to look in the of these corporations and they seem to be so. they seem to have an idea what they want to achieve and they go ahead and achieve it. they might be evil and rotten and corrupt, that they are certainly capable and there really seems to be no resistance. you go inside these corporations. it's for fat guys and octopus. it really is when shandling who does the visible hand, i'm looking at what the president say, what the managers
