i would like to see if there is actual evidence, not hearsay. vice president garcia: i feel somewhat differently, commissioner, because i think it would be entirely appropriate for us to look at whoever is responsible for making certain that nextg is responsible and to extract whatever flesh. in terms of the correct levels of review, i believe they did go through the proper levels of review. i think it was unknown. i think that was taken into consideration. we certainly do not have anything from planning that would indicate otherwise. i think it would be a burden on the city and certainly a burden on nextg, and i do not know what would be accomplished from looking at emails so i would be opposed to a continuance for that reason, and i would also move and see where that goes to uphold the department and to request again if fines are appropriate, that they be levied. director goldstein: any other commissioner comments? so we have a motion on the floor from the vice president to deny the appeal and uphold the department. on that motion, commissione

just so that we can take some of the hearsay out of this discussion. number two, i want to ask the question, was there any consideration by us, looking at a moratorium on the stock options? if, in fact, the goal is to localize the incentive in the area of mid market or tenderloin, why not do it for other companies who would like to benefit from a similar break, like twitter, but who are not going to move to mid market, but maybe to do, but in a more sweeping way citywide, so we are not favoring one district over another, so that we are doing something over all foreign industry that can benefit from a deal like this. this is part of the discussion that has not come up yet. supervisor chu: why don't i ask the office of and work force economic development to take a shot at this. >> thank you. with regards to clarify whether or not this is a tax breaks targeted at twitter or extended beyond, the answer is emphatically the latter. while we have known for several months that twitter is interested and considering moving to the sfmart building, and the exempti

what she is saying is not here said -- he -- harsaa -- hearsay, and i will talk to her privately about that. my own comments about san francisco, i have a couple of suggestions to improve police presence. my first suggestion is to have the top brass of the police department actually spend some time on the street. in my opinion, one way to shoot down the drug quarter for activity is to park a police car at that corner and send a message that business is over at that corner. i think the street cops would really appreciate it when they see the top brass on the street, even though it is only for a limited time. let's put it this way -- you might get lucky and actually prevent a crime when the top brass is on the street. secondly, i think that a crime situation would be helped if we could get some help from ex- chief heather fong. i'm surprised she has not had any presence since her retirement, and i think that helps the criminal because we are not using her vast experience and knowledge that she acquired. second, i would like to thank the sfpd juvenile unit for conducting investigation int

those admissions would normally be considered hearsay because they are statements against interest, they will be admitted and they will be very important for the jury to hear. >> i think she's definitely a sensational witness. >> he says that does not equal ." >> the type of witness you want is somebody who is not bias or partial. >> reporter: paid $100,000 to pose understood for play boy -- nude for play boy but only after reports of steroid reports breck in the media. he was her gravy train until he ended the relationship. >> if i was the defense, that's one offed things i would be arguing to the jury. if this is the best they got, maybe their case isn't as strong as they believe. >> we expect the former mistress to continue to be cross-examined tomorrow. you will recall, jason's leaked grand jury testimony revealed he used several different steroids. >> interesting testimony today. i'm just wondering what it has to do with perjury. in the end, i guess the federal prosecutors are trying to layer this case. >> what's his character like. >> absolutely. >> i got you. thank you. >>> well,

bonds' lawyers of course tried to discredit him, playing up the possibility of hearsay and business deals gone bad. but there was a piece of evidence from yesterday, a tape that hoskins made to prove to bonds' father that he was doing steroids by hearing it from his trainer. listen closely. you will hear the trainer's voice. it's difficult to hear, though. >> reporter: so that provides some evidence that perhaps bonds was doing steroids but that's not what this trial is about. it was, was he knowing doing steroids? we spoke with a legal expert about how they are going to try to build that case. >> what that means is you may put on some witnesses that may not be as strong or speak directly to the issue but it's the layering effect. so each new witness adds a little more and gives the jurors a little more depth. >> reporter: next up on the witness stand, at least from what we're hearing inside the courtroom, potentially kimberly bell, the former mistress of barry bonds. but back to the steroids expert who is now on the stand, it's kind of a chicken and the egg situation when we are dealing

those admissions or those comments would normally be considered hearsay but, because they are statements against interest, they will be admitted and they will be very important to the jury to hear. i think she is definitely a sensational witness. >> reporter: but defense attorney jason clay says sensational does not equal guilty. >> the type of witness you want is somebody who is unbiased and impartial. >> reporter: they say that's what she is, biased and a golddigger, paid $100,000 to pose nude for playboy and address bonds' sexual dysfunction but only after reports of steroid use broke in the media. bonds was her gravy train paying for houses and cars until he ended the relationship. >> if i was the defense that's one of the things i would be arguing to the jury is if this is the best that they have got, then maybe their case isn't as strong as they believe. >> reporter: now you can expect bonds' former mistress to continue to be cross-examined tomorrow. who is on the stand next? both jason and jeremy giambi. you will recall they leaked grand jury testimony revealed he had used several

clean it up and oh no sorry we can't use debian anymore so that made it clear and he had banned exact hearsay as anything but this is to say. sorry so it may be that there's going to be a protracted conflict here which is also what's in the rest of the united states wants another protracted conflict and one hand obama saying well we're not we don't really have the capacity to get into this we just have to make some strikes and for humanitarian purposes we don't want to charge miracles taxpayers too much money anyway and put a burden on them so just right here and there and we'll be out quick that's what we do we had done that in the past for example grenada or panama two fairly quick operations that we not they're not killed off anybody who would say anything we didn't like and then to control the country and at the same time we don't know it could be short it could be long it's hard to say hard to same thing if there was work or spawn and keep harm and now. this action in libya has been somewhat surprising to many americans who perhaps thought that you know president obama let's spend his pr
