grant. let me introduce you to our guests. bill seale is a member of our series. he is a longtime white house historian and the author of "the president's house." pam sanfilippo is a historian at the ulysses s. grant national historic site. she is also working on a biography of julia grant. i want to start with you. we last left the series with the johnsons after impeachment and the politics with the radical republicans in reconstruction in the south. set the stage for us as the grants come into the white house. guest: well, grant's election started off with the campaign -- "let us have peace." people were really looking to grant to kind of bring some peace and quiet to the white house and to the nation after the war and the years of the johnson administration. so, those were grant's initial efforts as he took office. host: those were the themes -- we were looking at his first inaugural address -- these were the themes he struck when he spoke to the nation for the first time? guest: yes, and

to qualify for the grants sometimes they receive grants in a high percentage they receive funding in both. the inequal percent is because they serve - we've not had the funding to give them the money they deserve under our own gvlz so we've not been able to keep our pledges to our portions would take about $3.3 million to bring us up to our goals. and 8 percentage down to 1 percent. so suddenly a million dollars over the two years the gap gets larger. it will be concentrate in those small fragile organizations as well as our whole community. i believe that every arts organizations regardless of what community it's based in wants to serve the largest audience against the wide it possibly audience for the wide itself array in every discipline in every cultural >> thank you and i'm hope we could. i know again your come back to the board but we could have some more data. he i would - i'm happy to meet with you >> and now there's a penalty for grant folks who submit the paperwork late. >> what are the - >> initially we save the paperwork for the next year and hopefully, the grant will be

you've accepted this grant in june. the project is a grant from the local baseball non profit fbbr and funned through chevrolet. the project is not as valuable as mr. rivera's car. then the san francisco giants received a similar award from chevrolet. and have chosen to award the grant to the recreation park department to do repairs s on james park ground. they selected it as a ben fishary. some great results and we'll bring that grant back to you in august. at the end of the fiscal year, i want to thank the staff who recently retired. we've had a hurt of retirements and we're going to honor one in particular raymond coats, jeff kollin, john, and park supervisor, devita and carlene rock wood. and ty. cota and veterinarian gail, they're off to enjoy the pleasures of not working. and we wish them all the best and we're thankful to them and their careers. we're please today have one retiry. and thank you for his 26 years of service. he has been instrumental in the successful outside lands festival in golden gate park. ther

epa, it was about an $8 million grant and really the purpose of the grant was to help monitor potential contaminants in the water supply, but there was also a public education component to the grant. and, so, what we did is launched a education program that was really about what people should do if they were concerned about the water, concerned about water quy

find out what he and grant were fighting about. men involved in the ambush. okay. special agent johnson. vivian? greetings from tikrit. hey. how's it going there? oh, yeah. it's fun. it's hot. you wearing your spf 40? fifteen. i'm going to come back from here with at least a suntan. what's going on with chuck whiting? well, we think he changed cars. state troopers responded to a call about a stolen buick at a rest stop off route 90. they found whiting's oldsmobile in the same parking lot. what about forensics? no sign of blood. no foul play. where's this rest stop? just outside of buffalo. looks like he was headed for the border. think we have enough for a warrant on whiting's? yeah, martin's over there right now scouring the place. ( stepstool banging ) so sergeant, i hear you got into it

epa, it was about an $8 million grant and really the purpose of the grant was to help monitor potential contaminants in the water supply, but there was also a public education component to the grant. and, so, what we did is launched a education program that was really about what people should do if they were concerned about the water, concerned about water quality issues, is to call 311. but it also began to be a vehicle to talk about where, you know, our pristine hetch hetchy water. it was a really successful -- a successful education program. we saw the signs on muni bus station, you saw them on tv.

i want to ask you guys to grant this. we've been through a lot of turmoil lately and to get krichd and go somewhere else and now we've got an up to this point it's difficult. i think this new little entertainment in the patio would help my mother a lot because we're struggling. to do that man i'd appreciate it nobody wants to see their mother struggling. we need your help, you know. i'm not afraid to ask but i want to ask you guys grant it and not look at it as negative. if you koo can look at my mom's name it's clean. you see the absence abc laughing i ask you grant it. thank you >> thank you. >> i'm here to ask for you to support sanchez. i've gone to many fundraiser and she opens her doors to everyone. thank you >> thank you for keeping that short. >> hi i'm an employee with the city and county of it san francisco. i've lived in the mission district about 20 years i've seen changes wave after wave we've had the dot comers coming in. now we've got this new wave of money coming in. it's like the dot comers on steroids. w

and hotly omitting jack spade's connection to kate spade, a chain of 94 stores, we implore that you grant us an opportunity to present the compelling evidence that we have uncovered with clear and unmistakable illustrations that jack spade is simply a trademark that belongs to kate spade llc and is not a separate entity. we would like to detail examples of how jack and kate are a financial structure, we are talk k about one business, one headquarters, one distribution center, one team of employees that fall under the same h.r. department. we hope to share with you the results of the research we've done under kate spade's deprive tactics to open a 95th store in the valencia corridor, we wouldn't be here tonight seeking late jurisdiction if the city had caught this in september, please allow us to show you that a spade is a spade and that a chain with 94 u.s. stores does not belong in an area protected by the zoning code. thank you for your attention. >> excuse me? >> yes. >> can you explain why you feel your organization should have been on that list again. you indicated you thought it was

it gives me some assurance that further process will be had on this, so i'm somewhat disinclined to grant jurisdiction here, but i haven't yet fully decided. >> for me, again, it appears that the requestor had an opportunity to find out what was going on in a timely fashion and for whatever reason did not avail himself of it, so i'm less concerned about the notice part than the fact that he seemed to know and made inquiry and then didn't take next steps, so i would be inclined to not support it. >> i too after looking and reading the briefs, i believe mr. ringel was aware that this process was going on and the fact that he's using -- bh the zoning administrator was out too far for us to rehear this, that would open up pandora's box for many rehearings, i think he was aware that this process was done and again as our president has said, the cu has already gone through the planning at this point, so i see no reason to break that up. >> we have a motion. >> move to deny the jurisdiction request on the basis that it was not timely and what else? >> i think there's no need to state a basis if

imposed by this board on july 11, 2012, there was an agreement reached that the five trees will be granted for removal with the conditions that 10 trees would be planted. because this was a board requirement, dpw doesn't have the done wave that condition. in some cases if a developer is not required to plant a required tree, we look at alternatives like additional landscaping to mitigating the loss of that tree. that is something that is available to us. what we are here is to get guidance from the board to pursue this. frankly i do think there is a dispute about what can be planted. definitely one tree will fill fit on 8th street and i feel we can work with pg & e to allow us to building -- plant an additional tree on 8th street. there was a tree proposed here. pg & e doesn't want the trees over their vault. if the tree shifted at one side over the other, the concern is access. tapp at that time it can be pruned to access the vault. dpw's perspective is we don't want to eliminate some of the trees but also respecting pg & e. i think there is still plenty of room for access to the driveway

to cease all grant purchases by june 30th of 2012. in august of 2012 the department was contacted by the fiduciary agent for this grant, that there was some additional funding available that had not been expended not necessarily in the city, but throughout the region, and asked the department if we would like to be able to expend it or if we could expend it over the next month in order to meet the grant deadlines. so, the department applied for and received an additional allocation of 3 76,000 above the originally approved amount to expend during this period and that is what's before you today. i apologize for the retroactive nature of the resolution, however, given the extremely short time frame and turn around time of approximately one month, it wasn't possible to get full approval before accepting the additional grant funding. since there was no match required by the department and no funding for this funding and no other commitment, the department made the decision to go ahead and accept the funding and process retroactive formal

with justice -- was justice served in the cases of treyvon martin and oscar grant? a case civil rights lawyers for oscar grant's family is here and inspired by true, vents in u.s. history, the untold story of the sips of the past at the time of enclavement. all next on "black renaissance." >>> almost one month ago this weekend, a jury of six women determined that george zimmerman was not guilty in the killing of 17-year-old treyvon martin. now, filmgoers across the nation are being introduced to another unarmed young black man, the bay area's own 22-year- old oscar grant iii shot in the back by b.a.r.t. police officers on new year's day in 2009. take a look, fruitvale station. >> five, four, three, two, one! happy new year! >> shots fired. prepare! >> we're trying to get home. >> what is going on? >> next stop, fruitvale station. >> you going to go to frisco, right? at this hour? you're not going to say bye? >> bye. >> love you, too. >> everything is changing around me. >> hey, what is up, girl? >> it's now or never. >> i'm trying to get back on my feet. i really ne

when grant goes east it's all over. it's just a matter of time. and grant says that. those words.i use that in the last full measure a lot. he knows he has begun, the people, the strength, the power, the food, the horses, and lee doesn't. it's just a matter of time. you have been very patient. thank you. and going to sit back and sign some books. >> what are you reading this summer? book tv wants to know. >> two books on hand, one pleasure read in one that is more brain food. my pleasure book this summer is the interesting. so we're following a group of teenagers into adulthood as they are striving to be exceptional people. and the protagonist and she gets older starts questioning this idea of balance or lack thereof between ambition and happiness. i think it's pretty pertinent to washington d.c., and that's when i'll be reading on the beach. my brain food, will be reading dionne winding. he is a great reporter for the new yorker. and i think it will be interesting to see his storytelling. he is using different vignettes in narratives of around america, including in youngstown ohi

women act, domestic violence grant. we have one officer on our most high-risk caseload that expired in our budget that was replaced. we had a deputy 1.70 deputy related officer to his own strategy basically drugs, again, as your numbers show, we have such a significant population that has such a heavy drug addiction. and then a community development specialist that was basically funded prior by second chance act planning demonstration and that's about job readiness and training. in terms of the new positions in the budget, there is a 1.0 community development specialist. we now have that task reentry center up and its coordination of the services and then an additional community development specialist for all of the community outreach in other additional contracts that we are bringing in place as well as the vic item activities. and a limited term i-t principal program analyst we're bringing up a new data analyst system as i mentioned this year and we need the additional help to bring it online. then that position, that

i hope that you grant the authority for an allowing to assess rather than the planting of a quantity of the required trees that we would try to work closely with pg & e and the developer that would get the trees would be assessed, but if you would be willing to grant a little bit of flexibility that you were not able to compromise with pg & e, then perhaps to remove these would be assessed. i really believe there is room for one tree. the other thing is these were larger tree replacement requirement as you may recall the department we reversed our opposition for the removal of the trees because they were already damaged. the department would request that we would assess the value for the cost to plant and establish a 36-inch box tree. it's substantially more expensive. so we would be proposing in lieu of $3800. we are talking about three trees. we were able to find an additional site working with a developer on mission. but, again i hope we would only be talking about one and we could find a location for two trees. >> is that maximum penalty at a can be imposed? >> no. >> shall i be

do you use grants, tax assessments, et cetera? anybody? >> i think i can take that. >> okay, ready. >> for anyone who didn't attend my session, i do a juvenile program where i take kids who have been convicted of graffiti crimes to do community service on saturdays. the way i do this is get a public grant from department of public works where we take kids out to graffiti hot spots, we paint over graffiti and they get a reduced fine and credit for probation officers. this is done through a public grant. it's a very effective program. we have been able to turn a lot of kids around, restore justice. we get a lot of positive feedback from the community, a lot of other officers are happy to get the overtime. and as an officer, you're really able to facilitate the program well because you are able to put on a lot of different hats, communicate with probation, you communicate with traffic court judges, with community referral center, and with station personnel. so, you really act as a good communicator and facilitator in the program from a law en

i got closer to richmond that grant ever did and i lost fewer than grant did. you said i was an butcher compared to what grant was doing sherman says to himself like that to get it linda -- to atlanta and do it by not losing the west. i can't suffer the casualties grant has taken while they are criticizing sherman, he is outflanking people. except for one or two mistakes he takes atlanta on september 7 and sends a telegram atlanta is ours. we fairly won. everything is turned topsy-turvy. mcclellan does disgrace and call the. he wanted to allow the south to have slavery. he is the man of the hour. lincoln is about to be reelected then he does a very interesting thing. when people are calling grant a butcher or sherman basically says no, this was planned all along. he was going to go directly and wear down the confederates they are not antithetical. they are synonymous. they are complementary. what i'm getting at is that grant did not have sherman i think they would have lost the election of 1864 and i think we would have had to negotiate the settlement. by savin

well the white house says it's extremely disappointed with russia's decision to grant edward snowden temporary asylum now that follows weeks of washington pursuing the n.s.a. whistleblower with hopes of his extradition let's get the details now from marty's going to chicken so god just bring us up to date with exactly what washington is saying as they actually have officially made a statement or these are just the noises of coming out of capitol hill. no no no they have they have bill the white house spokesperson says the u.s. is extremely disappointed was russia's decision to grant snowden asylum he said snowden is not a whistleblower he's been charged with a crime and has to be expelled to the united states and by the way a majority of americans disagree with what they think. is a whistleblower so jay carney the white house spokesperson also said this will undermine the growing cooperation between security services of the two countries he was asked why would russia do that knowing about the adverse of fact that this will have on the relations and carney said. he would refer to the

so, a hearing on the merits of the letter of determination which was issued -- in the e vept we grant the jurisdiction request, that hearing would not be heard until after a hearing on the merits of the actual permits. am i being unclear? >> no. >> am i confusing everyone? >> i think we just need to hear -- >> we can hear them all together, you would have to order us to reschedule the permit appeals, and you could hear them in september. >> yeah, we're thinking sort of -- okay, i'm just going to go forward. i'm trying to communicate something very clearly but we'll just go forward with this proceeding. >> okay. >> thank you very much for your clarifications, president hwang, my name is jeremy paul and i'm a permit consultant and i am here on my own because i believe in transparency in our systems. i've been doing this for more than 20 years and i often advocate for formula retail, i'm not a particular opponent of this particular retail, what i am an opponent of is this letter of determination and i think it's very relevant, i disagree with the zoning administrator because what it's re

so, i also included in the packet an exhibit e which is a case study that was granted by larry badner, not a historical property and i included the photographs of that in my documentation, i canvassed the neighborhood and i said would you be opposed to this, without exception, they signed and because i have the sixties, they're not here tonight, they said yes, do what you want with your property. it was also cited in here that this would be detrimental to a neighborhood because i would be removing an on-site parking space. by that argument, if i was allowed to put a garage, i would still be removing an on-site parking space, so that is really not an argument at all and then i included images from around the city blocks around the property demonstrating what exists and how this would actually be in keeping with the character of the neighborhood. there are lots -- there are six lots with parking pads in the surrounding area and there are many homes with garages that are substandard and the cars cannot actually fit in the garage so they are parking in the driveway and they are parking ov

not really realizing that it had already been granted. and so i don't know if you have the power to change that, and we also when we met with the architects in the beginning, there was an issue raised about the height of the building and the amount of things that they would put on the roof which actually increases the height and they told us at that time that they would consider putting them in the basement and then it is as if it is a new idea today again. and so, thank you. for your consideration. >> do you want to come up here please? >> jack, fong, owns the building to the west and it is interesting because the noise level on lumbard street is f. and his studios have the old murphy beds in the bedrooms. and the beds are in the closets. and there are small windows right here. with those bedrooms. and they cannot really open the windows for air because of the toxicity of the lumbard street. there are some large windows right here, but the bedrooms will be totally dark of these tenants. and mr. fong has repeatedly asked, and just been sh

and many cities built their treatment plants with this grant money. oberstar: but even a decade after it was enacted, the reagan administration came in and cut the grant program to a loan program. and funding diminished over a period of time. now, we still have 1/3 or more of the nation's streams and lakes that don't meet the standards of the clean water act. we have to advance the cause. that is the big challenge ahead of us. you just don't think of raw sewage in waterways in a developed country, and yet, that's what we have, and not just in pittsburgh, but all over. narrator: pittsburgh is situated at the confluence of the allegheny, monongahela, and ohio rivers. these three rivers are vital for industry, recreation, and drinking water. and each year, billions of gallons of combined sewer overflows discharge directly into those rivers. hecht: we're now having to face the consequences of the choice that was made to put in combined sewer systems. narrator: in 1994, the government adopted a combined sewer overflow policy to reduce csos nationwide. citi

and, as i mentioned earlier, the grants, the money, the department of education has issued 11 grants to schools. we need more, we will see as budget proposals the president's and the secretary's real commitment to this to ensure that we have some resources for innovative programs that are happening across the country for those local programs that are really changing the way their schools function and their communities see their schools and promoting those and scaling them up. >> very quickly because i know we want to move on, the attorney general launched a defending childhood initiative, i know there's a lot of philanthropy in the room, we want to work in partnership to find those innovative programs. there was a jurisdiction in north dakota that got a grant to implement some of the restoretive justice programs, the superintendent mentioned those. those have shown real potential for doing good things in terms of preventing recidivism in the bullying context. a grant to boston for statewide bullying intervention, so there's a number of different places, portland, maine and elsewhere.

>> it was continued -- >> it hasn't been granted yet or has it been granted and that's now on appeal, so would this sort of stap all those processes because you can't get -- without this letter, you can't sort of build on it, correct? >> you're correct. >> okay. >> so, i don't know how the timing would work and how the board would want to or need to hear the appeals, but you know, it's a bit of a catch 22 here, so i think ultimately if this board does grant jurisdiction, here's the appeal and grants the appeal and denies the letter of legitimization, that would invalidate any cu which has already been issued for the property. >> okay. >> mr. sanchez, in the eyes of the planning code and the planning department, tic's are considered owners, are they not? >> it's one parcel and we send it to the -- >> i understand who you send it to, but as a definition, if you have multiple owners holding a tic interest, they are all considered owners, are they not? >> it's one owner. we would see that entity as one ownership entity. because we have no -- we don't get into the ownership structure of un
