i would not be surprised if hal moore says tonight enough. i'm going to do hal moore stuff. i know he enjoys doing this. again, at some point you have to step back. i guess a lot of it -- a lot of it is what you -- what -- the other piece of your life. i guess in my case, the other piece of my life, what i do now, is so rooted in you have to make decisions. sometimes i go home at night and don't studded don't ask me what to make a decision about what we are going to do for dinner or where we are going to go to eat. i have done that all day, all i want to do is to put my feet up and turn on the western channel and watch gene autry. that might sound -- but it is -- so when i come to these and -- when we have these discussions about -- and i -- i -- i always want to be socially correct. and i always want to remember who they are. and i always want to remember what they did. but sometimes -- i will look in the faces of these guys and i don't have a clue. it is -- it is not that -- so long ago that i remember there are some faces that i remember. and i -- i don't know how to comm

four of us had the opportunity to serve with hal. i learned a lot about public service and about transportation, a lot about marin county from hal. he is the cousin of our governor, jerry brown. he was appointed to fill a vacancy created on the board of supervisors when supervisor boxer was elected to the house of representatives. he served many residents in marin county and truly the bay area, working on a number of regional agencies. i know he was proud to be a member of the golden gate bridge and he served as its president for some time. we had that -- he had that top right corner seat. hal was a great human being, a great man. his son was in supervisor farrell's district. he was a -- high school alum along with supervisor cohen. undoubtedly, his family and the people of marin county will miss him. if we adjourned in his memory, i would be most grateful. president chiu: without objection, that shall be the case. supervisor campos: thank you. i want to thank supervisor elsbernd for that in memoriam. i have a couple of items. the fi

hal was a great human being, a great man. his son was in supervisor farrell's district. he was a -- high school alum along with supervisor cohen. undoubtedly, his family and the people of marin county will miss him. if we adjourned in his memory, i would be most grateful. president chiu: without objection, that shall be the case. supervisor campos: thank you. i want to thank supervisor elsbernd for that in memoriam. i have a couple of items. the first item is a hearing request on a very important project in development that we have that is taking place in the mission district. if you look at the 10 lowest performing schools in san francisco, unfortunately, seven of those 10 schools are in district 9. many of them are in the mission district. i am proud to say that working closely with the mayor's office and the school district, my office, along with many members of the community in the mission have just received a grant that allows the community to begin planning for how to improve the quality of those schools, and depending on what happens with that grant, planning, tha

that -- i can say the same about hal moore. hi not laid eyes on hal moore until the morning that we walked into the lv. his reputation being a tough battalion commander but -- i was in a separate brigade, separate battalion. we happened e and as i tell folks all the time being attached to a unit slyke being stepchild. you are the last to do everything. >> right. >> in my case, it works well. >> yes, it did. >> right. >> so -- you get through the night and then the decision is made to walk to albany. what do you know about that decision to walk? lifted. there's also a question of why you even wanted -- why people were going to go to albany. >> right. and in hindsight or do you want yeah, well -- on that particular morning, when the colonel calls you to the -- command post and the orders of the day are we are going to move out. we know that a portion of this unit is going to be airlifted out. and some of you guys are going to walk. now -- again, i -- i -- overlay my attachment mentality that -- obviously not going to fly out of t

he was known has hal or h.d. he was a very jovial, fun-loving guy. >> when i received the orders, anxiety hit me first because this is a serious thing and i had 16 months to go home. but is it my life or is it going to be his life? and that's what is going on in my head. if i don't carry this assault out, then it's me. also the kite read that you would be receiving a fish line from above in a blue bag. everything that you need would be contained in that bag. double-edged cast iron knife with a double edge and it was tempered because it left no fingerprints. i waited like three days and when the line came down, that morning, i fished it in, took the blue bag off and i got the spear shaft from that off the fishing line and i waited. sergeant burchfield approached my cell with flashlight and he saw me standing there, he asked if i needed a light for my cigarette. i had a camel in my mouth. that's when he turned. when he turned into the cell, i hit him. i stabbed him, speared him one time. he turned around, grabbed h

so for that, hal, you did something i never was able to do. >> hal brown retire bask in october. >>> president obama is spending the next few days in south korea for a summit on nuclear weapons. the president arrived in seoul this afternoon. mr. obama and more than 50 other heads of state will discuss containing nuclear materials. >>> before leaving washington the president called on americans to support a long-term transportation bill. >> in a matter of the days funding will stop for all sorts of transportation projects, construction sites will go idle and our economy will take a hit. >> inhis weekly address, president obamaa urged voters to pressure house republicans to pass the bill that would continue federal funding for transportation project all across the country. current funding for those projects is set to dry up next week. >>> thousands of secular activities from across the country gathered in washington, d.c. and say it's all in date the reason. the atheist rally was held at the national mall and want to make clear that life without religion is on the rise in the u.s. >> p

[laughter] two can -- two -- two comments on this, i mentioned this morning at the transportation authority meeting that some of the near-term projects that were low cost and high impact would be appropriate for that funding source. those are not the big projects. there will not be a lot of money and it will not fix all of mission street, but the small things that might be involved with stop optimization, way of finding, other things on that long shopping list. >> long shopping list? >> very long shopping list. finally, i should update the board that i have been in conversations with julie in victoria at the planning

my concern is -- hal is the a distribution intake and out? the mechanical room has a lot of noise that will be created on that corner. parking talks about clear heights, but suv's are 6 feet. with that two, it would be a total of 15 feet. right now, we would go with a structure of 3 feet, 6 inches, would be a total of 22 feet, which means it must become another level for parking.

you can expect more of these, town hals, where team romney believes he does connect. where tech tiniest of voices make him more human. >> i would like to know what you would like to be remembered for? >> around my home, i would like to be known as being a good father. >> reporter: they point to the numbers. they say the math son their side, no matter how long this takes. >>> meanwhile, rush limbaugh is trying to reassure his listeners after more than 40 advertisers pulled out limbaugh told his audience, it's like losing french fries at the drive-through. he says you barely notice. >>> in other news, a top official in the syrian government may have joined the opposition. if this is true, the deputy oil minister would be the first senior official to defect. as for the u.s. response to the ongoing violence, leon panetta says right now, a military strike does not make sense. >>> hate groups have grown at an alarming rate over the last couple of years. groups have grown steadily numbering more than 1,000 today. and a shocking number here, 450 radical patriot, or militia gr

and at the suggestion of supervisor elsbernd and the full board, for the late supervisor, hal brown. president chiu: i want to thank sfgov tv for coverage. i know that years ago used to broadcast these meetings and we welcome you back to the board chamber. with that, is there any more business? >> that includes the business for today. president chiu: we're adjourned for this evening. [gavel] thank you. >> hello. welcome to "culturewire." we are here today with bay area artist jody chanel, and we are here to see the plaza where your piece has just been installed. >> i have been doing large-scale paintings in the galleries and museums, and the idea that in the future, i could do something that would hang out a little bit longer than the duration of the installation the kind of appeal to me. i quickly found out about the san francisco arts commission school and realized there was a pre-qualified school you had to apply to, so i applied to the. >> how long did it take you to develop this work for the plaza? >> this was a fast track project. design development was about a month. >> let's

hal the wealth is developed. who developed it. loans what? how one gets to own it. we could do that. it could be touchy, but it could be useful. i'm just saying that we could use occasions for teaching about things that could make a difference. so i just say raise questions, and sometimes, raise hell when you raise the questions. [applause] >> i wanted to know if there was an african-american district attorney working in texas to review some of the cases that were -- i guess, tried, and some of the evidence was not valid. looking through investigating some of those cases to find out if they should be released because of the false information that was acquired. >> the attorney who has been the lead on the team that i have been in communication with is a guy by the name of morris moon, and he would be the person i could ask to find out the answer. there is actually a be a working on that, but i know there have been so many cases -- there is actually a d.a. working on that, but i know there have been so many cases that have been exposed, especially with dna testing. it

so elected hal the u.s. religious mr. woolard. there were persecuted. some of them were put in internment camps. the research came out. there were university of wisconsin, they took all the german books and burned them. germans disappeared. there's so many people of german background in the united states, but you don't have german-american this, german-american that. so they get simulated completely all the muscles, you know, they have that. the second world war, we have the japanese. they were entered. no, i no pillion know, there was a time, the 1970's, that there were thinking of putting oil --s and arabs in the internment camps in the south, military bases. they didn't. and they didn't after september september 11th. the third war was against communism. and i think that that is more parallel to what happened to islam. it's being looked at as and ideologies rather than a religion. you know, even though the u.s. has accepted a large group of religious, as long still continues to be an inside. >> what is your background? >> come from syria. my mother w

[gavel] thank you. >> there has been an acknowledgement of the special places around san francisco bay. well, there is something sort of innate in human beings, i think, that tend to recognize a good spot when you see it, a spot that takes your breath away. this is one of them. >> an icon of the new deal. >> we stood here a week ago and we heard all of these dignitaries talk about the symbol that coit tower is for san francisco. it's interesting for those of us in the pioneer park project is trying to make the point that not only the tower, not only this man-built edifice here is a symbol of the city but also the green space on which it sits and the hill to which is rests. to understand them, you have to

hal than do women -- how do women get compelled to exercise their agency to run for high office, to be part of the body politic? whether we like it or not, that is the sphere in which these things are addressed. why not exercise once run for office? >> women have to support women, and sometimes we are our own worst enemies. [applause] and the difficulty -- the difficulty that women running for higher political office find it is finding that early support that does not say that you are guaranteed to be a winner any more than men are guaranteed to be a winner when they go to donors and say, "support me. i have to do the research necessary to put together a credible campaign." women simply do not find that kind of resource available to propel us. until women say that, this is good to be over. there is no reason for our women and children to be in poverty. there is no reason except complacency and an unwillingness of women to do what was done in the early part of the 20th- century, which made it possible for all of us to be sitting on this platform today. tavis: the numbers are clear. wome

. >> what is happening with crime in your district and hal is the police department doing? supervisor kim: it is a difficult issue. i probably interface with the police department every week because with such an incredible need from our police officers in our district, ranging from south beach to the tender line to the intermission. -- to the tenderloin to the inner mission. i want to see our officers on the street, walking the beat, and i want our small business owners to know who they are. i think that alone creates an atmosphere of safety that is really important. i'm really excited about the substation coming up to 63. i think we need to continue to provide social services in our district. it has to be a partnership with sfpd. >> what about community courts? supervisor kim: i visited the court it was modeled after, which is the red hook court in brooklyn. the judge will visit the apartments or the locations talked about in the case and he has evolved this relationship of trust with the neighborhood that think is really positive. i think we are not there yet, here in san

i don't know if the forward air controller from the air force sitting back behind me with hal moore, he must have called him up and said get up here. i had the air force guys i was talking to them right in the airplane and they were droning around up there at night. and this was embedded forever. it's dark and you can hear them. and after a little while one of the lieutenants called down and said that dudurig, they're right in front of me. and he said how close. he says i can almost touch them. and he said kill them. and he turned to me and he said illumination. i said to the guy -- i said to the air force, kick it out illumination out now. with that, pretty soon there was this little pop and it was like this, bright as day. i couldn't believe it. >> what did you see? >> well, lots. and they were all around in woods and everything. and then that's when i just cut loose with everything. i'd walk up and down, around and all over. >> the troops in the meantime all around you are firing 60s and 79s, and everything else but you're not. you're talking on the phone or was there a point you

one is capital based on what's called risk weighted ba can hal if they say their assets are not very risky. there's a lot of subjectivity that goes into how risky assets are. so risked based capital is not always a good barometer of bank health. a leverage ratio is simply your tangible common equity to your total assets, right? so that is, you don't try to exercise any judgment on how risky the assets are, just leverage the capital as a percentage of total assets. precrisis, we found that there's a lot of academic analysis that showed those banks that reported strong risk based ratios with weak leverage ratios were the ones that got into trouble. when the crisis came, really the market discounted that and everybody looked at the leverage ratio. if you look at the fed's stress test results, and i would encourage you to do so, that you should also look at the leverage number. there are a number of banks that would have capital -- leverage capital ratios below 3%. if i were a regulator i would be very troubled by that. so i would hope next year the fed will also make decisions about cap
