i like to think i gave as good as i got. i like to think it was like going into a circuit training course and by the end i had muscles i did not know i had. when i got to abc, i was a co- anchored with sam donaldson going in, it was understood that we were there and started together and it was quenelle biting and it was a disaster in the beginning. we were a saturday night live skit. many nights, we were a skit on saturday night live, we were so bad. [laughter] we were pretty bad. >> you were not that bad. >> you should of called me and told me how to fix it. [laughter] [applause] >> jumping channels, want to ask you about social media. we have seen and discussed a lot of that. it has played a rather major role in the coverage of some of the stories in the middle east. you come on your program, have used footage provided you don't know -- provided by people you've done n't know. how'd you feel about using that kind of material on your show when you really don't know the origin of a lot of the stuff? >> we always tell you wher

but i had a peace and love in my heart but i felt what i listened. there are no drugs in my system at all. people do overdosed on drugs, but that is their responsibility and where they grew up from. actually, rate for me it provides a place where i can become something that i would be judged for on the street. i go to work, where i have to work professionally, and i cannot wear nail polish. i cannot dye my hair, i cannot do anything. and i want to do that, and this is the only place that allows me with open arms to be the person i want to be. so please, just consider this, because this is like my family. if you take this away, i do not know where else to go. this is my life. president newlin: next speaker, please. >> and good evening, my name is france's -- francis ho. i go to university. i want to tell you about my parents immigrated note, and how they wanted to provide me had a better experience, a more diverse one. they took me to what was sf love. this was a huge part in creating a.m. and helping me to heal in my life. i was lucky to be protected,

i believe you spoke with us last -- >> i will be very brief. since i last spoke, i have continued with the homelessness on six, and going through church street, trying to feed the homeless. i still continue with my work in the community. handing out clothing to the homeless as well. it is pretty much the same, i just wanted to say hello. supervisor kim: thank you so much for being here today. we appreciate it. kathy, we know you were here last week as well. >> i manage the next door shelter with 334 beds. sanctuary shelter with 200 beds, and an additional 60 to 100 beds. the two main points i would like to make an reiterate is that my view for the shelter monitoring committee is not only to police and to monitor the shelters, but also to increase communication, problem solving, and collaboration. secondly, what i would challenge the committee if i were to become part of it, would be to look for new resources. we already are facing budget problems, and i would challenge the committed to work for collaborative grants and other resources that could be sha

i went this. is it. ok. i just knew that i was not i did not have the right ingredients for stage the difference is very simple. this i don't know why but this system does not want me so the actor to project. the projection goes. in front of the lens. so i'm not going to just write there if you do it too far it's over that's the truth it's an illusion but it's the illusion that we are you know together in stage everything has to become like. this you know and i really feel it's sort of like a concentration it opens up and in film i feel that the concentration sort of goes into a sort of a quiet place not always but as an idea so you bring it down for anybody and any actor i can say you can do all the same things you wanted to do but bring him inside because people read. people who have read it not all but you don't need all people you want the people who are the same frequency. more or less anyone. you want to know keep it open they call it mysterious. to me is that mysterious but i think open is finding the mystery starts on

i have appeared many times before the commission. i have interacted with commissioners. i have exchanged memoranda with the commissioners, and i have testified at length and they were and are considering the adoption of separate regulations dealing with the open government laws and their obligations to the forests. which gets me to one of the points that was mentioned in my supplemental papers, which is the lawsuit i filed late in 2009 to get records from the ethics commission. if you don't know the details of how the sunshine ordinance passage works, you may not know that it has no enforcement, but it has authority to tell officials, agencies, and apartments but records are disclosed, along with which are not. oftentimes, when the issue in order to a department or official or agency, those orders are not complied with. so the enforcement arm of the task force is, in fact, the ethics commission. prior to the time i filed the lawsuit and i believe october, 2009, they sent 14 cases to the ethics commission for enforcement. the ethics commission dismissed 14 cases. this resul

i agree with ms. russo. i do not believe i would be able to find another care provider if lyon-martin, and i simply will not go to the frustration. i will go back to relying on emergency room services and be in crisis mode. please grant their request for financial assistance. supervisor mirkarimi: think you. next speaker, please. >> i am the director of access of love community center, which holds a low-income and trans women's health group. i have been the guardian of that for 10 years. i stand in solidarity with many of the statements made today. i simply do not know where else we would be able to send some of the clients of axes of love who have health concerns without this resource being available. i was a prior client of lyon- martin. as a low-income woman, i do not have health care and do not know where transgendered women are going to be able to find the health care that is necessary and culturally appropriate. i would really like the supervisors to see this as an investment in our city. if we lose health care and healt

i gotcha. i gotcha. yeah, i gotcha. >> and so, that was it. that's how i became an actor. good story. >> yeah. >> jimmy: now, "take me home tonight." i got to say -- i love this movie. i thought it was so charming. it's set in 1988 so it's like a -- kind of like a little tip of the cap to all those movies from the '80s. you know, "say anything," "breakfast club," all that type of thing. but it's set in one night. you play kind of a -- kind of a losery type of guy. >> yeah. yeah. a d -- a d-bag. >> jimmy: a d -- yeah. >> yeah. >> jimmy: watch it. kathy, kathy. watch it. [ laughter ] no, yeah, you do. you -- like a jockey guy, but you're really funny. >> oh, thanks, man. >> jimmy: really, like i thought it was well, well-played. you and topher grace. >> topher grace. the lovely and amazing and beautiful anna faris. >> jimmy: yeah. now, anna faris, in this movie, plays your girlfriend that you want to -- and you actually -- you want to propose to her and all that stuff. >> yeah. >> jimmy: gosh, she is so funny. she is so funny. >> yeah. >> jimmy: and it's kind of -- the movie

so i think oh, man, i missed something. no, i just about can maybe figure out jam it tarnishes sensibility, his movies. he is pawned. anyway, so i second what martha said about everybody thinking. on the other hand, there was something special about those of us who grew up in the 50's and early 60's and experienced the civil rights movement in the south because that was an example of a moment in history : what an individual did made a difference. that then informed us in the anti-war movement, women's movement, environmental movement, an anti-nuclear movement in the 70's and 80's, believe it or not, that said nuclear power plants are inherently dangerous and should not be built. i have not seen that on television lately. i've seen a lot of nuclear physicists and sang, don't worry about a meltdown. i won't get started. >> let's get started. let's bring in martha and choice. let me ask you, anybody who wants to respond to this, what about what informs your lives today, what you would have liked to have brought with you from the 60'

i have ever had. i never go to the doctor. i have experienced such bad things at the doctor that if you don't have a crisis, you don't go. i think that lyon-martin is an incredible resources, which is why we are willing to fight for it, and i think the city, up $150,000 is insignificant, but it is so small compared with the resources we have and will save the lives of people. if the clinic does not exist, they will not be absorbed by other clinics. they will just not go to the doctor, and we cannot afford that. thank you. supervisor mirkarimi: thank you very much. i will read more names. sandra, estevan, jackson, and deborah. >> hi, my name is cara, and i have been an employee of lyon- martin the past three years. i court in a public health, which is a collaborative program with the transgendered law center. lyon-martin works to provide improved health care in this state and has achieved unprecedented results for the transgender community. we have worked with over 10 community clinics, helping them create a safe base for transge

i don't know. i think iexample, when i did at a certain age we see the turning point for actresses especially in america around 40. i did last metro and say that when he wrote that film for me, that he wanted to give me a part of the woman with responsibilities and i know the history of france or he wanted me to have responsibilities and to have an input, of work to do. and it's true that happened at a time where it sort of changed the direction because before that, hi done other films. but at 40 you change a little. it's not all of a sudden at 40 you change but you have to have this evolution of a woman who is always the mistress, the young woman, the romantic character, to become a sort of more adult person and to be involved in other kind of parts, you know. >> did you welcome that transition. it gave you an opportunity to do different things and different rolls. >> i think i was able to understand and realize in time when i had to bend, you know, in one direction. i never had to make a very sort of stron

left bare and when i graduated -- i left there and when i graduated, i got a job at "the detroit newst was snowing and i interviewed and got there at night. i saw all the big beautiful buildings and it was a great city full of people. i did not realize that all those buildings were empty and it was a different city than i was expecting. i learned to love detroit. there is a certain grittiness about it and a nobility or spirit to overcome. there is a lot of great people there. i did not like that weather. it was 1.5 winters that i had to leave them what did you do there? >> i was the graphic artist. part of my mass comm major was that i learned adytum like everyone else. i started a magazine and was editor of the newspaper. when i got to detroit my goal was to figure out a way to marry the reporter with what they wanted me to do in the graphics field. i tell them something happens i would be going. that was fine with them. i wanted to visually tell a story and that became a valuable skill because not many people were doing that. at the time . >> why did you pick grambling in the first

when i would get in those times when i was depressed or really sad, i would smile. i would last. hter is the best medicine. i would enjoy myself in a moment. another time for those emotions to pass. this is something that you never get over, you always wrestled with depression and those things. those experiences are still there. the things that take place are still happening. you turn on the news and the darkness is still there. it is the battle, the struggle. you have to recognize happiness, love as well. tavis: you mentioned "lasers," put the cover back on the screen. this is in fact called "lasers." you are far too creative for me. you have to explain this because i don't get this. >> it makes the anarchy symbol. this is the pop culture icon of the rubble, what have you. -- rebel, what have you. the start to something - and changing it into something positive. you look at the world and it is dark and overbearing. what it took was to change my perspective a little bit, not to change the world, but my perspective. tavis: your perspective about yourself or about the world? >> the

i said, i didn't know what to do, so i said, well, what do you want? they went on to explain that they wanted to place some copies in our paper. i said that to darrell, they want to place a copy in our paper. darrell said to me, well how much is it, and are they willing to pay? he said how much is it, and are you willing to pay? [laughter] we told him, and they said, we're not paying anything. they're not paying anything. so finally, darrell said, i don't have enough space, and i will have to edit it, and i repeated that, of course, for which i was told, one of them said, we can't have you do that, no, we can't have you do that. it was at that point that i turned to darrell and said they don't want to do that, and we stood there silently for a moment, and then when a smile on his face, malcolm says, i will edit it myself, and that's how -- that's my malcolm x story. i was an interpreter for two men standing two feet apart of two different colors who needed someone to interpret in english what they were saying to each other. i don't think anybody else ha

i can write i love my job, i love my students. i can write crazy books like this that get me in trouble. i can really do anything i want because my parents in some ways developed this work ethic in me, they were very strict. in other words, in a way they were restraining my choices in some way when i was younger, i felt like they gave me the world. >> charlie: the worse thing that after happened they told you never to take them to a ceremony where you came in second. was the that the worse thing you ever did. >> pretty much. >> charlie: that's not so bad. >> well they used harsh words, i got in trouble, we had to have total respect for parents. some of the things i've gotten in trouble for. you don't talk back to your parents. it was a very different generation. but no, i have very loving parents. >> charlie: that seems mild compared to what you did. for example telling lou if she did something she had to stand out in the cold. >> charlie, this book is really misunderstood. when i wrote it, do you know what my model was. i had hell

i am away by -- the more i hear, the more i read, the more i research -- i was not doing anything nearly as courageous at 18 years old. looking back, when i was 15, that was the first year, in 1990, when my brothers and i were invited to perform in the presence in upstate new york for the holiday. it was not a big political thing. it was a holiday. we were just going to go and sing sing christmas carols, do some rap songs, whether we could do to cheer up the brothers that were locked up. we started to do it over and over again. it was only 10 years later and that we began to see ways to use that in a more pro-active way. we would come out of a nightclub in new york city, my brother, my cousin, and i. we had had some experience with the police harassing us on the streets. this particular night, somebody had gotten into a fight, we were probably the only black folks in a white neighborhood the party that they were at, they were playing salsa, marvin gaye, and we were hanging out after the birthday party. we got caught up in a situation where the police had been called for shots fired. we h

think i would call it i had a series of conversions so i had an amazing experience i went to a very conservative seminary who didn't even allow women to be ordained in my preaching class ron they would say that was a great sermon for a woman. and i never heard another woman preach until i was 25. >> wow. >> so um, but i kept having these openings these conversions, to more people in my life, to hearing their stories, and to coming to my own experience of faith and to say now wait a minute just because someone is telling me that, that is not my experience of spirit. so i spent time in india and was very struck by the poverty there, and thought you know, the conservative message that i was hearing wasn't jiving with my experience in india i began to read about liberation theology. >> but the constant conversions helped open that. >> absolutely. absolutely. and i believe that god's spirit is everywhere so i would pay attention and it would just widen my soul and widen my experience and then my notions of god and scripture and of christ and of faith began to be shaped dramatically in ne

i am an old battalion commander and i also know how to be humble. i have worked as a job- serviceperson. my military service and my desire to rehabilitate the fallen and urge success on to greater accomplishment drives me to that end. since 1991, i have assisted hundreds of veterans with -- i have organized and conducted hundreds of workshops and 20 annual job fairs in concert with edd and the san francisco veterans employment committee. since my earlier working days, i have had a strong desire to build a bridge between factions, whether they are racial, sexual, or veteran. the commission is a bridge to our veterans and to the services that they deserve. thank you for listening to me and i look forward to being reappointed to this important position. >> thank you for your service on the commission. next, we >> supervisors, thank you for this opportunity to be in front of you to present my case as to why i want to be on the veterans affairs commission. i am a native san franciscan, born and bred in potrero hill. i now currently live in rural heights, h

but you--i don't think you know. i mean, usually what i say is, it's like worrying if your slip is showing when you're fleeing a burning building. i mean, you have to prioritize sometimes, and in this instance, i just didn't feel i had any choice. you know, in a world full of need, how do you decide which cause to go to bat for? ah, well, i guess i specialize in the ones that nobody else wants. you know, i figure that the-- there are some that are pretty benign and very worthy, but that they've got enough people to do pediatric aids, and you know, the tougher, trickier ones, if they get to me, usually, i'll try to deal with those, but you know, the longer you do this, and the longer i cross-pollinate people, you see that they're so connected. you've been a particularly powerful voice on artistic freedom. you're one of those who fought for funding for the national endowment very early on, when it was not a popular cause. and you were there on the steps of the brooklyn museum of art. when the sensation exhibit was under attack by mayor rudy

when i arrived in this country 10 years ago, i was broken. i had the support from my family, the support from my friends. actually, let me rephrase that, my friends were there. they were here. i found lyon-martin. when i did, what happened to me was simply the light shine. because of the care, the compassion, and the incredible ability these people have shown to percent and give to every single person who walked through the door. there was absolutely unique. it was truly the only place in the world i have been that can make me feel so at home, so that these, and cheerful. the work that the people do is remarkable. i will use the words that were used by our jewish friend, yes, it is a model. we cannot lose it without losing part of our identity. did i hear the ring? it is time over? supervisor mirkarimi: keep going. >> as i was saying, a piece of our identity will be missed if we let lyon-martin go. money, in matters of health, they are senot supposed to be in the same conversation. the last few years i had a tumor in my liver removed. it was fo

i have a bachelor's degree in political science. i applied because i want to take a more active role in our democracy. i think the committee has a very important non-partisan role in investigating -- and in reviewing was so blower complaints. >> are there any questions? at this time, i will open up for public comment. >> [singing] make them get along make them strong take a good candidate, not bad make it happy, not sad bond, bring it along, make it simple to last york city lifelong i hoped that there could enough for the task force when the committee comes along. bring a good >> there's no public comment, public comment is now closed. >> i would like him a motion to approve larry leader and for c one, robert -- i would like to make a motion for larry liederman for seat one, rober muscat, for seat 2. >> i know thea

i guess i have two in particular. first, mr. martin, i would love to see you on a commission if you are interested, and if you like to be in touch with my office, and happy to talk with you about that. i think i would find it tough now given the number of veterans before as to appointed to the veterans affairs commission. thanks for making it easy. please give us a call, and we look forward to working with you on that. second, mr. varni -- i appreciate the fact that he is incumbent, but not being here today, i find it tough to evaluate him. and in particular, if there are mayoral appointments coming up, i would be happy to suggest and to the mayor, but without hearing him in front of us today, i would find it tough to support him. in particular with the strong backgrounds of obviously, the other applicants here. on a personal note, my father retired out of the u.s. air force. he is an active duty in vietnam, and i grew up not as a brat running around -- my dad was in the reserves by the time i was born -- but i grew up going to the presid

i guess all i can keep going is coming up. i am here again and i am asking for help. >> i wonder if we can have the chief come in and have contact with the victim's mother and make sure there's an update. >> i will speak with investigators and then we will speak with ms. brown. >> you come here all the time and every time our heart goes out to you. we have talked about moving fourth. i applaud your courage. you are a great mother and we will do our best for you, i promise. >> i don't have any regrets. i raise this boy right. i did what i supposed to do. >> you have the attention of the chief of police and the entire commission, we will follow up, we promise. >> good evening. there is a lot more like her and many people are feeling the same pain. today, i spent the whole day in the bayview. we talked to the brothers on the block, talk to me, the drug dealer, the hooker, do you know you're chief? yes. we know him. we can deal with you. i don't even know greg personally. when i talk to people who are a hooker or a drug dealer, i ha

felt great, but i knew when i took my clothes off, i wasn't happy with what i saw so e. [♪.. >> tony: it's p90x. this ain't no aerobics class from the '70s. >> rob: me, as a guy, the last thing that i ever thought i would be doing is sitting in my living room, working out in front of a tv. it's just something i always saw my mom or my sister doing, doing aerobics and, uh, it's amazing. i'm sitting here working in front of the tv and i don't feel funny. it feels like the right thing to do, i've got a great personal trainer just right there, telling me what moves to do, when to do 'em, how to do 'em, and just guide me through a process, and all you have to do is just follow it. >> you see the angle here? he's leaning to the side , that's all he's doing. >> the way that tony put this program together, it's the muscle confusion from beginning to end. you go from phase one and as soon as you think your body's got used to it, boom, he switches it to phase two and then to phase three. you just have these three-week intervals and then a week of break in between and then you co

i came in winter of 1996. i had no idea. i know the words snow and winter through shakespeare that i read growing up but i had no physical relationships with any of these things at all. the person who brought us had no idea where we were going. we had no winter jacket or hats or gloves. just very flimsy close because it is always warm. as it is here. we landed at jfk at 4:00 p.m. and it was already dark. that is not a dark time of day so this is already beginning to be quite strange for me. we saw snow for the first time. i was not thrilled about it. the only reference point i had was christmas so i thought it was christmas all the time. eventually it was where i began -- i met my mother, the woman who later adopted me and brought me back to live with her and became my mother. it jewish-american woman who adopted. i arrived in the united states. on my way what i want to mention briefly about immigration and things of that purpose when i began to perhaps the first time in my life i began to question whether my own humanity was

so i did a song called "mine smell like honey." i did a song -- iote a song called "badass" that didn't make the record, but it had the greatest opening line of all time. >> jimmy: which was? >> i was never that kind of badass, my achilles heel is. but i could never think of what it was. so it didn't really turn into a great lyric. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: it was this close. missing one -- my achilles heel is blank. >> but, so -- "mine smell like honey" -- >> jimmy: i was never that kind of badass. my achilles heel is pizza -- >> my achilles heel. you know, if you come up with a great idea, we could co-write it. our theme song. it would be great. >> jimmy: you guys, send in tweets right now. this is so exciting. [ laughter ] write a song with michael stipe. you guys, check out "collapse into now." it comes out tuesday. [ cheers and applause ] the man, michael stipe, everybody. lykke li performs next. come on back. ♪ ♪ [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: oh, our next guest, i just love her. she released her critically-acclaimed second album, "wounded rhy

and i said i don't get it. iean, there's a fight in the cafeteria at some high school in new york city, i can guarantee that the new times is not covering that. but what's going on in the "washington post" is covering every single thing that is happening and i don't get it. he looked at me and he said, i can tell you why there's so much interest. he said it's because you give good quote. [laughter] >> he said, you say the things that we know people are probably thinking in their heads, but they are trained to do better, stick to the talking points. and you actually say those things. you say that there are some teachers who are not so good and need to, you know, the renewed. so that's why the press was you because you will say those things. so i thought that was interesting. i will say this, if i'm allowed to say this, as per usual -- [laughter] -- i think that there were people in the media who were extraordinarily helpful to us in the effort. and i honestly don't think that we could have done the work that we di
