david goldstein: nobody can be the master of all those technologies. you can learn them, but you can't be the masters of them. at least get the patient the best care. so integrity is a really important issue, and the integrity of our payers-- of our insurance companies-- needs to be held up there. - you all right? - okay, fine. - see you later. - great. we have a trauma center here. the trauma surgeon, he will have a patient with a gunshot wound to the head and neck. he'll have a patient with a motor vehicle accident where they have abdominal, chest injuries, facial injuries, and he'll say, "i need the thoracic surgeon, i'll need the orthopedist, i need the otolaryngologist, i need the facial plastic surgeon." which is what i do, and i get called in. and i will coordinate with the other doctors. i said, "okay, who's going to the operating room first? can we do this at the same time? what can be staged, what needs to be done?" and it works as a team, and it can work extremely well. developing a productive relationship with your primary care physician is

and you can think of so many michael goldsteins. and dr. colfax and other people mentioned that. their memory lives on. and i think that we owe it to them to continue to recommit ourselves, rededicate ourselves to making sure that we prevent the spread of this disease, and that we do find a cure for this disease. and i just think about, you know, the possibilities with this building. this could well be the place where we do find a cure for aids. and if it's going to happen anywhere, why wouldn't it happen in san francisco? we have always led the way on so many different things. you know, the city of harvey milk is a city that has always recognized the dignity and humanity of every person and it's in line with that spirit that we are here today. and i do want to thank our mayor because as supervisor weaner noted, when the $7 million of funding was cut, even though we were lucky that for so many years leader pelosi protected that, the mayor did not blink. the mayor wasn't even a question. and that's the beauty of san francisco. that when it comes to these issues, making sure that w

we spoke with wall street former wall street employee and now occupy wall street activist alexis goldstein she broke it down for us take a listen normally like if you default on the loan there's all these collections agencies that can buy your debt and then they harass you harass you harass you and it's like three percent of the people they get the money from. they do ok because they buy the debt for pennies on the dollar so what we're doing is we're trying to buy a million dollars worth of debt which only costs fifty thousand dollars because it's pennies on the dollar and abolish it and so people will get a phone call saying you know instead of getting a phone call from a collections agency they'll get one phone call saying hey occupy wall street bought your debt it's been abolished and if you feel like helping you know give us five bucks to help somebody else. it sounds like a phone call i'm sure many people would be very happy to receive now straight debt estimates that as little as fifty thousand dollars could abolish a million dollars worth of debt and it's really small donations that

first let me thank the president and director goldstein for furnishing the city attorney's opinion and affording us the opportunity to respond to it and i'm going to do it point by point. the city attorney contends proposition a of 2007 stripped the right for taxi permit decisions from the charter, and i addressed this at length the last time, but let me say that right persists in the clear language of the charter language and no where in proposition a or the it weres presented to the voters was the loss of appeal rights ever mentioned. two charter sections here -- here it is can be easily reconciled and it didn't affect the right of appeal. the city attorney further claims that the mta's action was administrative decision and immune from appeal and even if a special class of permits is legislative act those issuance is grant subject to appeal. on that point the city attorney argues that the mta's was not a grant of permits because it required subsequent administrative action, but that action was simply a staff decision about the distribution of the med dallians. were we required to wa

. >> i wanted to clarify the point that executive goldstein made, that we are anticipating our board and hearing and hope finalize the memorandum of understanding for the review of individual permit decisions. we hope to finalize that and take it to the board for the november meeting. we asked for the department of transportation to hold off for the provision in the transportation code. that was the legislative change that mark gruberg was eluding to. but it's been clearly stated by the board that don't want the board of supervisors to take action until we have this memorandum of understanding of process. >> commissioners unless you have other questions. the matter is submitted. and mr. gruberg, i am happy to give you my copy of that letter. >> commissioners? >> well, i think i would like mr. gruberg to have an opportunity to review the letter. if he hasn't seen it. and make any comments. if he would like to. >> okay, the letter didn't say that much. >> i would have comments about that letter myself. >> i believe that mr. gruberg represents your side of the issues. >> he doesn't repr

the carpet and nor any more need to endure something after seven years at morgan stanley alexis goldstein could no longer tolerate the greed and toxicity of wall street she quit and is now an author and an occupy organizer on wall street there's this attitude if you get screwed by somebody it's because you are stupid optimal poker playing is take your best friend for all they're worth the same is true on the street. the occupy wall street movement started as an ocean of people on the streets and in camps and that tactic of holding public spaces the police have made it at least with their seeable future impossible we've kind of adapted in this way where we're organizing more specific themes. themes that could be while on the way to bringing much more tangible results. like hurricane relief occupy has been praised for doing a better job of the government agency feedback as well as projects like strike debt well as many as one in seven americans are pounded by debt collectors occupies raising money to try to abolish that debt burden for as many people as they can by buying distressed debt fo

goldstein has complied with all of the code and guidelines and provisions including the example given in the guidelines. it is hard to think of an example that would be more pertinent to this particular matter, a coffee, truck or a coffee sale is not the same as a dine , or someone who has a full menu. there were very few sites, he applied to the only sites that he could find in the entire district that would not require or in cringe on any code or guideline requirement. we don't feel that this appeal or this permit would be opening the flood gates to a huge number of permits. this is something that he and his reliance on the city policy as it stands now. did apply for and received. there was a mention of the second coffee truck, he does have a coffee truck currently not far away, he invested financial sums as part of his permit process for the last 14 months. it is not two additional trucks, it is one truck that would go between two locations. so he would be on the street for a total of 12 hours a week and he would be on front street or in front of 150 california for a total of 8 hou

i'm debbie goldstein. i am a gastroenterologist, but i have spent a lot of time in primary care as well. i could spend an hour counterpointing and raising. there are so many issues. it is infinite. i wanted to make a couple of points. that is, the first thing is the whole issue of primary care. the primary care physician is being asked to be the foundation the primary care physician has the most responsibility of any other position. they have to know everything. they have to know what the right and left hand is doing. they have to coordinate. there responsible for everything that they refer people to. they have the least amount of time. there the ones that have to talk to that patient who went to the orthopedic surgeon and really could have been talking about going somewhere else for palliative care. they can't do that because they have to go faster because they have to see more patients. and its crushing. it is crushing. and there is no incentive for people to become primary care physicians. the get the l
