it is important to me as a holistic psychologist at being part of an organization that is a sisterhood. and by getting service did you know that it lowers stress hormones of the brain. >>> i knew that. >>> it is a wonderful thing to do. i want everyone is not part of a surety like yours to think about becoming part of the service organization. the lead to greater fulfillment and health >>> in metra feel better lecky stated by doing something for someone else. it is really what life is about. helping those who need assistance. that is what alpha kappa alpha does. >>> were the things about your organization in a fund to and i know you do. >>> that is the key part of it all. i'm so happy that this organization has persevered in not only persevered but you stay current with the times. the of global leadership. what is more important than that? >>> we live in a global society. and effective head over to her 60,000 members across the globe and we are making an impact in every part of the world. >>> 260,000 members. congratulations. i'm grateful that you and have your story in your service th

we've felt that part of this holistic approach is we think this could have a broader impact by teaching skills that would apply to all forms of bias, and we hope that work will make those commitments more safe and have a better educational experience as well. gender nonconforming youth in general, persons with disabilities, youth with different physical appearance, youth from diverse religious communities and recent immigrants and children of immigrants. and, of course, in southern california it's a very, very important issue for us. um, we have seen sort of the demonization of those groups, and it's very important to work to help them. challenges, working with different cultural backgrounds, 90 languages in the lausd, many different cultural perspectives. bridging cultures and ours as a cbo, allying values with practice. often times you see things at the top of these organizations that don't always get implemented at the ground level, so that's within a challenge -- that's been a challenge as well. we've had -- i will just quickly go over our achievements. we've really changed the tone

so it's a holistic approach.the academic piece, i just really believe that if we serve the whole child, the academic peace will take care of itself and i think we're looking at it, and to the perspective where we are creating a very to fight in those who can and those who cannot. >> other questions? >> i'm just curious as a parent where you think we are in the broader academic community are educated community accepting it as the objective, looking at the whole child. because we have been through a decade or more of raise academic standards, raise our academic standards and i just wonder where we are raising the point that you just made? >> i don't know. i think sometime my personal belief is probably counterintuitive to what i believe but i don't think we're headed in the right direction. i think our focus, we are really trying to compete with a global community who has surpassed us in other areas, and the focus is not, we are in a race to the top, of what? hodo we make sure that our community's are safe, how our

. >> you sort of have a kind of holistic relationship where you might do merchandise in the store thattes their work and practice, and also, prince for them. maybe we should go back and look at the print operation now. >> let's go. >> before we go into the print shop, i noticed some incredible items you have talked back here. what are we standing in front of? >> this is william wiley, only one earth. this is a print edition. there are only eight total, and what we wanted to do was expand the idea of printmaking. this is really an art object. there we go. >> besides the punball machine, what do you produce in limited edition? >> there is the slot machine. if you win the super jackpot, you have saved the world. >> what about work? >> the right design, it was three volumes with lithographs in each volume. the cab of count dracula with 20 lithographs inside and lined with beaver fur. really special. >> let's move on to the print shop. >> ok. the core of what we do is making things. this is an example. this is a print project that will be a fund-raiser for the contemporary music players. we

you have to look at it in a holistic way. they can get the opportunities to training so when the time comes to do the job, we have skilled workers because this is not only about temporary jobs. we keep saying it again and again and again. we need career jobs so our people can go to a better place. i was that the unions to initiate the laborers union, 761 initiation fees, this come about and the other. -- this, that, and the other. it kind of makes a young man feel proud. this time around, we are happy because they're going to be working for a company who is going to keep them for a longer period it. i am saying this, commissioners, because we have to play a role, too. we can come here and express our feelings. sometimes it gets a little bit ticked off, but the good leaders have to do what it takes to take our community to a better place. good leaders know the way. i want to thank you hi, ed. when i come back in october, i have a gift for you. >> [inaudible] president moran: miss jackson? >> good afternoon. i am going to miss

the need to bring this into a holistic approach. what we have been doing under our solutions for the i brand, we have m brand, which is the most powerful actor in the alphabet. those products are well known. but the i brand is just coming. those vehicles are well into development now. the i 3 and i8 will be launched next year. they are carbon fiber and that will be made, not in this state, but just up the way in washington state. using fully environmentally sustainable energy. carbon fiber prevention will be shipped to our factories in europe or will be make carbon fiber cars. it is about 50% like you're than steel, 20% lighter than allen minium. you need the batteries ms. -- which makes the efficiency much more credible and also a strong business case. this part of the united states will play a strong part in the development of these vehicles. as well as we also started a venture firm. the venture fund operates out of new york. it started 15 months ago, we made our first investment in a company called my city way, which is working

the city wants to take a holistic approach by replacing the infrastructure in the two-block radius. that will be a three-minute -- three-month project. >>> this is the isth anniversary for the fair but there are concerns about swine flew. the centers for disease control said dozens of new cases were reported last week, and although none were reported in our state they are warning people to be careful. >> there are two chairman responsible for the barns. they walked through swls the kids walked through to make sure no one seemed to be distress. >> symptoms are the same in pigs and humans. you get a fever, running nose, coughing, difficulty breathing. the best thrng you can do is wash your hands after touching animals and don't take food in or around the animals at fair. >>> they came together today to support same-sex marriage in the new civil marriage law going to referendum this fall. >> each child, each life, whether a son or daughter, is precious, and they deserve a full life, including marriage. i never want our son or any of our children to be alone in sickness or in health. i

you have to look at it in a holistic way.

so it's a holistic view i think we have to take culturally. how do we raise our kids in a generation where so much is available. as a child wasn't an option to leave the house because if we stayed around there was work to do. so we left the house because you didn't want to do all that work. whereas there is so much now to keep you glued to the television and keep you glued to computer screening or some type of device and sitting in a chair. so, it's just i think the way we have to look at a society has to look at the change. >> i think that healthy eating is very important. you know, you could do the work out as important, but if they buy chips afterwards it kind of tells the workout situation. i think that we need to address healthy eating. like i said, in a unique position because i work with children as young as 18 months all the way to 12-years-old. so they are eating hummus and zucchini at an early age. teach them how to eat healthy so by the time they get to high school and things of that nature the have already had a pattern. they've al

most agents do not have a holistic view.y're not able to chart out a path for you and to see you grow and develop and build a brand and build an empire. that is often not the case. how much of pushing your career where you wanted to go has to do with having your own vision about what you want to do and where you want to be as opposed to just relying on an agent? >> for me, without getting too personal, might big obstacle has been believing in myself. i come from a small country and i've been doing this for a very long time. i need a path for myself, but it's still hard for me. i can be a lead in the movie. i can get the words out of my mouth. the other great thing that my agent does come at she helps me believe in myself. if i have an audition i am nervous about, she is, like, go get it. yous: if you are that shay, chose the wrong profession. this is the wrong business to be in. >> i know. people tell me that. tavis: you are good at what you do, but this is a tough business. bill level of rejection, you have to have a strong

. >> it is a very broad investigation focused at this point, a holistic look at the whole incident and not just focused on the one pipe. >> the meeting opened up the floor for questions and hands shot straight up into the air and that is when things got a little heated. >> we are dying out here and we need chevron to step up and be a part of richmond. do something for us. >> city leaders try to bring the focus back on questions for investigators but still neighbors were more concerned about what chevron was planning to do to help residents after that august 6th refinery fire. >> i am really surprised that the air district out there, explosion after explosion, over the past 30 years, they still come out with the same story, that the missions were within the background levels. after 30 years of saying the same thing, i cannot help but come to the conclusion that the district is lying. >> we do know that the united public workers for action will be planning a labor day march to the dates of chevron and they say is to " end dirty energy production ". we're live in richmond, cbs 5. >> a cel

i agree that what was written in the planning department's brief that you have to look at these holistic play and we can parse words in each but if you do look at it, it talks recreation and i think -- about recreation and the most pertinent fact is that these are soccer fields now and what we're trying to do is improve the use of these fields and make them better fields for people who are playing soccer. so i am supportive of the project and -- in rejecting the appeal. it is on balance with the coastal plan. vice president fung: i would like to perhaps tackle this in two parts, based upon, i think, the appropriate procedural process we need to take. the first issue is a question of whether anything has changed with respect to the ceqa findings from the point that it was certified. the eir addresses the impact of the project. i find that it was not totally clear between the initial study and the scope and the decision making on some of the issues that came out in the draft eir, but overall, i find that the eir is consistent in addressing the impact studied -- impacts study. i do not thin

its holistic program that we focus on the social and emotional development of our students helping thempathy and being able to sit still and being able to learn. conflict resolution. we engage the parents with the students in our program to help them learn how to support their students and their reading development. we take the families on weekend field trips to places like the san jose tech museum. >> cheryl: broaden their horizons. how do you measure success with the program? >> we have our primary literacy measure is we want the vast majority of our students to improve by at least one reading level each year they are in our program to accelerate their growth by the third grade they can get up where they need to be. >> cheryl: how much success? >> large majority that have improved by one or more years, sometimes two years in reading development. we measure their social and emotional growth. we've in similar success in that area. >> cheryl: that is fantastic. it's free to the kids? >> right. >> cheryl: you must be looking for funding? >> we're always looking for funding. we provide the

that is the holistic approach. let me check in with our foundations. i get many of my ideas from ms. hewitt. i think there is a lot more work we have to do, obviously, but funding is still key to this and the community input. young people want a future. you know, they want to have good lives. they can lead the charge, and we can take their lead. >> thank you, supervisors. supervisor avalos: thank you. we will continue this hearing to the call of the chair. i want to actually close the meeting -- i was prompted by sharon hewitt, and i think it is very important to do that, end this hearing today in memory of the mother and the family of those members in denver and to homicide in san francisco as well. supervisor olague: i would like to leave with one quick thought. and we can deal with it later. have you been open to case managers in addition to property managers at certain sites? or a case management training program or something like that? also, i do not know if there is a partnership -- there must be with the sfpuc and that sort of thing. eventually,

for them to come to avoid the streets, but we are concerned about giving them an education in a holistic way, so they can have a different opportunity than their parents. >> reporter: compassion partners with local churches to take care of children's physical needs, and it emphasizes academics, including a special curriculum that targets sexual abuse. and it also emphasizes decision-making for a lifetime. it is a tough concept for so many children who's families desperately need help now, but prevention, via one-child responseships, may be the most effective strategy. in a recent survey, economists rated it number one in the long-term fight against poverty. >> i believe the best way to combat exploitation is the prevention we're doing in partnership with compassion. >> reporter: and for that reason, tuarez has become a regular at this project, building relationships with kids, in the hopes of helping them to realize their dreams. for these children, it is not too late. and it may not be too late for leah. after our interview, we prayed for him and for his dreams. >> i would like to get m

we need to think of at holistic play as a public-health problem. not as a rush also the people who are selling and people are selling a rock to a police officer pretending to be an addict. all those people need help. >> i think that have given my all for the cause. i will leave it to george to put the capper on it. >> what is the sanction for opposing -- he is one of your members. >> he is and he is a valued member of the association. as an elected official, he is entitled to his own opinion. >> thank you. i have to say that, i want to think marty for coming here. he knew he was coming into this. i want to repeat. i am in the minority in the association. i think concerning this item, it is important for me and all of us to recognize there are ballot points of view. if we're serious about developing solutions that work for all of us, we have to entertain those points of view and tried to reach consensus. that is the only one that we will create a workable, sustainable solutions. all we're doing is spinning our wheels. my reason for being here is bec

i want to say i appreciate your comments about the holistic approach of dealing with violence in san francisco. however, we cannot let school districts off the hook. this has to start early because most of the young men that are here involved in gang violence, by the age of 13 aire complete the disenfranchised from the school system. we have to do something better early on with the school system. that is what i want to add to it. supervisor avalos: thank you. any other member of the public like to comment? seeing none, we will close public comment. i want to thank the members of the public for your patience and injuring first from the department. i appreciate your comments as well. i totally agree that there is much more the city needs to do in providing greater investment and greater support for victims , and for big -- and for witnesses. greater support for young people and job creation efforts as well. i believe i need to be more on the ground in my own district in doing that work. originally, i had planned to have this hearing in the omi neighborhood and my office is considering
