experts warn people not to hike alone. >> i hike alone every day. >> reporter: does it concern you. >> it actually doesn't but i carry a knife sometimes and i should get some of that pepper spray stuff. >> reporter: an alert has gone out to student, parents and neighbors in this area. again the principal in the last half hour says she's concerned because fish and game says that mountain lions are opportunistic. reporting live in belmont, maureen naylor. >> we have tips for you on what to do if you encounter a mountain lion on ktvu.com. when you are there, just click on web links. >>> the department of public works was in the mission district to pinpoint what needs to be done to spruce up the area. they pointed out graffiti, basins. public works says the next step is helping business and residents properly maintain their property. >>> on to the weather, bill you said it was going to clear up, so are we done with the rain for now. >> a few sprinkles this morning, i have a little something in santa rosa. but this is minimal, this is just barely showing up. some of this is barely hitting

am i alone in that? does anybody else feel that way? you can't ever find the sweet spot. ristmas. tanya asks me. what is wrong? i'll either say we got too much. or i shouldn't have held back on "x," "y" or "z." my kids are fine. i'm screwed up somehow or another. keep that to to yourself. when really, the only thing our kids really want is time. >> glenn: when we come back, a look at some of the people behind the miracles of wilmington, ohio. ♪ ♪ z?-o/?=x÷w4lpyçóhw;wrwnpç ♪ ♪ >> glenn: the spirit of wilmington, comes from one place. the hearts of its residents. take a look. >> we're not waiting for someone to saver us. we're going to save ourselves and we're going to do it together. ♪ ♪ >> we have had our confidence in our government. we have had our confidence in our jobs. and right now, things seem uncertain. the only thing that is certain right now is god. >> for our family, for me. we feel that as part of our relationship with the lord, we value praying for other people and lift up other people's needs more than our own. >> if nothing et cetera, it encourages me

i spent time alone. i try to eat my meals with people. if they don't discuss the topic during the meal, it is not worth knowing. i have -- spend a year reading the previous week close the newspaper --'s newspaper. tavis: you never feel out of touch or ignorant of what is going on in the world? >> understand a little better. the crisis of 2008, i could not understand why people were saying the same thing. i talk a lot about subtraction, removing exactly -- when you sculpt, you remove elements from the sculpture. likewise, you remove the information to your life to understand what is going on in. tavis: this new book, as i mentioned, it is called "the bed of procrustes." unpack that title. >> procrustes has an inn not far from athens. he would abduct or invite travelers, depending on the legend. he would feed people and excellent meal and then he would try to get them into bed. others that were too tall, he would cut their legs. he had a 100% fitting bed. the idea came to me and i'll try to get a tailor-made suits. if the killer was an econ

the giants for winning the world series, but i was out sailing when the games were going on and i was not alone. i think that the perception that we are giving away the waterfront needs to be at rest or interpreted correctly. these concessions will be in the turn for benefits that will be long term with a great effect on the infrastructure of the port. i am sure that the topic of the investment is one that we are familiar with. this is one opportunity where the revenue that comes from the event itself will make many opportunities commercially viable, something that is very tough based on the investment required. again, i urge you to bring the world cup to san francisco, it is a great venue. it would be like any city in brazil passing up the soccer world cup. if that does not do it for you, it would also be equivalent to the vatican passing up the opportunity to host the second coming. [applause] >> and the cats. keith [unintelligible] >> it is hard to follow the comments about the second coming, but anyways. my name is andrew cats. phd strongly supports bringing the america's cup to the norther

i am alone on the phasing. that is where my vote would be inclined. vice president goh: president peterson, is the face an idea that the trees in the worst shape would be removed with an eye for the other trees to see if there recover, or in a certain time? president peterson: i think a chance for renewal in other areas. eventually, they would all be replaced. vice president goh: and then how would the decision be made to remove the ones in the worst shape? president peterson: the testimony tonight was that the three worst were all found on the southeast corner. those on the north side, from the neighbor of's perspective, had helped the canopies. commisssioner fung: madam president, would you like a motion? president peterson: i would. commisssioner fung: i am prepared to make a motion. i will move to uphold the department. president peterson: call the roll, please. >> we have a motion from commissioner fung to uphold this permit. on that motion -- vice president goh: um, can you start on the other side? commissioner garcia: aye. president peterson: n

went out to lake forest, illinois, on a very low-budget film and just made it and wasn't-- and i was left alone. i appreciate that. when it was over, i edited it in new york and brought it out. and when it came out, i was not prepared for the reaction. i just knew that that was what i wanted to do, that finally i was able to put things together and say, "this is the way i want to do it. this is my statement." so i wasn't prepared for the aftermath. i mean, it was exciting, thrilling, but i wasn't prepared for it. well, the rule of thumb is, when you win an academy award, regardless of how you feel personally about it, you're suddenly far more marketable. i have to believe there were more opportunities for you to direct. and instead of directing, you waited several years-- instead, invested time, resources, and money in a couple of projects, one of which was the sundance institute. you also invested in a project that would bring both business and environmentalists together to address important issues. what kind of career move was that? destructive. that's right. that wouldn't be the typical holl

and some of them, i think, were maybe even better than the bowling alone article, but that got about a million tons more publicity. i mean, i got, you know, invited on pe--you know, shown on people magazine and bill clinton invited me to camp david. and there was just a lot of hubbub about--about the article bowling alone, much more than, as i say, for things that were, i think, equally valuable intellectually. and i think the reason was that i purely, blindly stumbled into articulating a trend in our lives that lots of ordinary americans knew is true in their life, that they weren't--you know, their mom had belonged to hadassah and they didn't or that their dad had--had gone to the moose club or the rotary club and they didn't do anything equivalent or that they, you know, remember that they used to--their parents used to play bridge every week and--with friends and have friends over to the house and they didn't. and everybody kind of knew in a personal way that they were less connected with their community than their parents had been and felt a little uneasy about it, you know, felt

and i just left it alone and i came back when the incident happened with imus to finish it and i thoughts just perfect for the time. it meant so much more. when i recorded it it was just really a joke about provocative lyrics and i wanted to show how these words are just words and people's intent and action give words power. but then when that happened it made the point of the song and i just added that third verse and that's why it came out on "the black album." >> if you had an interview somebody like charlie is now in a one-hour segment, who would it be? >> i would interview muhammad ali, mahatma gandhi, malcolm x and martin luther king and... (laughter) and mother teresa. (laughter) a couple more people. but those are definitely... those would be first on my list. thank you. >> rose: that's it. (cheers and applause) >> rose: thank you. thank you.

i was alone. and i had seen a member of the wedding came first with julie harris at the water. she was great. but it was you know -- and then i saw this movie. and in those days, two features, two movies. i'm sitting there and this movie comes on, "on the waterfront" and i'm just locked because it had the great kazan directing it. it's over and i just sat there. did not move. sat through the whole member of the wedding movie again just to see water front again. that's how it impacted me. and it truly -- it's -- it was a, you know, today when you tell young people today about it, the response isn't quite the same. but you have to understand, this was in that period. it was a revelation. it was a breakthrough. his acting on screen was different than anything we'd all seen. so it was -- so playing with him in the movie, i'll get to that answer. it was a little -- >> larry: nervous? >> a little unnerving. you don't know. and marlon would play that a little bit. he was always -- he was so good to me. he was so sensitive to the condition that eye because i was in a precarious conditi

like many things we're trying to do, we cannot do it alone. i want to thank all of our partners, local 261, who we have an incredible relationship with, we just want to the first apprenticeship program, and we are very excited. bocce federation, peter, where are you? peter, so you know, was the driving force but the region behind the renovation in golden gate park. -- was the driving force behind the renovation in golden gate park. supervisor chu, supervisor avalos, thanks to all of you for being so enthusiastic. so, thanks to everyone. we are absolutely thrilled. we will be -- we will be back out here when, chris? in three months, we will be out here to play some bocce. >> let's think bill ginsberg for letting us get away with this. it was not easy. communities in san francisco are passionate. they are passionate about however you touch these great spaces. without his team, we never would have gotten out of the starting gate. thank you. as far as a construction schedule, this could be done in eight days. >> i want to send some thank you's to th

a boarding house, because my home was around this area here, which is about 150km further, and i was alone zurich. and i had real water in the eyes. and i walked about the streets of zurich saying, "damn it, you're stupid. you have two children, a wife, no responsibility. even if your wife told you, 'you can do it. whatever you want, you go ahead and do it', you have no assignment, no job. everybody told you not to start your own company. they told you all the time, 'don't do it'. you were stupid enough to start it, and you have not one single assignment". and i went back to my boarding place listening to all the people making music and dancing outside... ...and went to bed at nine o'clock, woke up at six, and started fighting again. and i was sure that i would do it. - when did it turn around? - two months later. i got a visit from a german saying, "look, we have a problem. we built a new special furnace that didn't work. we invested five million. and somebody told us there is a young swiss who knows something about it. why don't you try?" - did it work? - well, it's a long story, but it

you know, i went into this business because i like spending a lot of time alone, and i do like being on stage, but, you know, i write the books so i don't have to do this myself. [laughter] and, i just honestly, i'm a little warn down by it. >> thank you. >> thanks. [applause] does that mean it's time to leave the stage? [laughter] okay, i think we have like five more minutes for questions. >> you end up becoming yourself and david get to talking about john and david foster wallace says sour things about him and how the stuff he writes is not humane, and david says you don't like him, he he says he's a nasty man, but if you think i don't like him, menace his name around john. i'm wondering why you hate him or what you don't like about his work? [laughter] >> well this is like fourth-hand information at this point; right? [laughter] it's actually within the realm of possibility that there was a transmission error there. [laughter] yeah, i have -- i think -- i think a lot of -- i'm not alone in my generation in feeling a frustration when you have somebody with a atlanta -- talent and w

i think at issue is the freedom of expression of this community and to reflect ideals in the institution of kpfa radio station. and for that reason alone, i think that somebody from thousands of miles away, completely oblivious to the needs of the community to come and yank out one of the most forward programs on the station and put in turmoil, i think it's -- this resolution is so mild, i think it ought to be amended and perhaps even put stronger language in there to look up pacifica national board know that this community and its value will be upheld. >> thank you. are there any other members of the public that wish to speak in general public comment? seeing none, general public comment is closed. madam clerk can you read the adoption without the committee reference count p l. items 59-66 are for immediate unanimous adoption. these items will be acted upon by a single roll call vote if a member requests an item will be called separately and matter considered. >> colleagues, would anyone like to sever items? supervisor alioto--peer. item 59. >> yes, please. item 59 and if supervisor avalos does not sever 60 i'd like to sever 60. >> su

i will leave that alone before we take a vote, and maybe i will make those comments. commissioner hwang: i just wanted to follow-up on what you were saying, commissioner garcia, on item four. and i could be misunderstanding what you're saying here, but it seems that the critical issue here is number five, and i think that is where the interplay is. the issuance of the csc. the underlying permit is evidence that is sufficient, and i find the prior evidence sufficient. at the same time, i heard no testimony today that additional evidence is out there that could counter some of the declarations in the appellants evidence, -- appellants' evidence, so i think this was an improper issuance -- improper work done without a permit, and this is where number four comes into play. mrs. tavis can be reconciled. -- maybe that can be reconciled. commissioner garcia: the permit does not ask to legalize what is done, and therefore, cfc could not have -- that is more reasonable to me, as the question was asked by vice president goh about the moving of the sink and toilet, i think it ha

i think you have heard today what consumers need and what they want and san francisco is not alone. i think all of our california people are concerned. if anything, this should push you to help come up with a device that does the same thing, but is smaller, and that you need to do all of the research and everything necessary to make sure that people are comfortable with it. i personally do not feel that we will be compromised in a disaster or earthquake. as somebody mentioned, one of the things they tell you not to do is to rely on your cell phone in those times, so i think we will probably be ok if we get a better understanding of what to do in case of the emergency. with that, colleagues, why don't we approve this legislation without objection? so moved. all right. next item is item four, and this one will be sent out as a committee report. 3, wireless? >> yes, 3 needs to be sent out as a committee report. item four, resolution authorizing the planning department to retroactively accept and expend a grant in the amount of $83,529 from the national park service. supervisor maxwell:

at night i hit along theistries on the stretch of road much it was cold that first night alone and i was so hungry. i began to think may be death was a better way after all. >> main stage start in this magazine rack much the fliers for the upcoming events and i used to walk past in every day going to the tv studio. i said, that looks like a fun event i wish i could go to that. i could make a tv show and go to these events. >> main stage is produced through a private/public partnership coordinated by sfg tv. library staff set up the shoes. media services gathers the production details and stages the live event. sfg tv brings the equipment and the crew and the crew is the glue. main stage is taped and editted by interns. in exchange for class credit and the opportunity to use equipment. interns produced 15 hours of original programming during year 1 of main stage. the auditorium hosted talented performers who brought the cultures of the world home to san francisco. like the culture of the bay area these performances are adding a fusion of tradition. >> master protectinist. explored the

i think they stand alone. i wanted to write it as a stand alone book. they're related. in the way that this is maybe an arrogant comparison but in the way that through the looking grass and alice's adventures in wonder land, one is not a sequel of one other. you can read one without the other. but they're related. in that way i think they're related. >> there are also video games in this. >> yeah. because the video game, in our time, has used many of the techniques of the classical quest narrative, the business of levels and saving and proceeding to the next is very much like what happened. if you take myths like beowulf, the hero arrives in the village to kill the man center. he kills the man center friend el and immediately face's bigger monster, which is friend el's mother. so he has to go up to do another level, a bigger challenge. i think video games, the people that have devised them have carefully studied the quest narrative and they know that you use this structure, because the structure is not only about killing dragons and overcoming obstacles but about person
