i was at the corner of mcallister and larkin, and you were with one other person. there was no cameras, there was no reporters, just you and another person and you walked up to me and just started talking to me, asked me how i was, who i was, and what you could do for me. and at that moment, you had me. you had me totally. and san francisco is going to be a lesser place now that you're leaving. hopefully, you'll be back. hopefully, you won't go, but you will be back. and again, like what kate said, you had the most tremendous staff imaginable. and i want to thank you for that. and i want to thank you for the eight years. i'm going to miss you, but i'm sure i'll be seeing you. thank you, jane, for being jane.

the two trees that are on the -- is it mcallister? bolton. the two heights that are essentially on hyde are -- trees that are essentially on hyde. some of the design got reworked due to a number of my sense is massive pedestrian usage issues so some of that was scaled back, but we can absolutely look at that. in terms of trees nearby, we -- public works can look at, or figure out a way to plant additional trees nearby, whether it's across the street, at the orpheum or elsewhere, where can absolutely look at that. >> in terms of scheduling because i know that was a concern that the appellant raised, could you look at the schedule. i think the concern around the sudden elimination of the entire canopy almost in that particular two streets, and how that timing of the replacement would be, especially concerning these are deciduous trees, it's fall, they would not have their canopy, they would be waiting until the spring to grow their leaves. >> i'm like okay. is there a position on our staff you can fill? there's a tree removal, and then, the stu

sherman temporarily bypassed the city, took fort mcallister. they closed in on the city of savannah, which earned the eternal enmity of its fellow southerners by surrendering rather than allow itself to be shelled. it is a judgment call, i would say. sherman famously sent a telegram to lincoln giving him the city of savannah as a christmas gift on december 22. then the army spends the month of january and savannah, and sherman and his men start moving through the swamps of south carolina. there, the union troops vented their anger on the places they believe started the civil war, and sherman has this great passage in his memoirs which he wrote in the 1870's. our men had got the idea that south carolina was the cause of all our troubles." "her people where the first to fire on fort sumter, had been in a great hurry to precipitate the country into a civil war, and therefore should follow them this gorge of civil war in its worst form. i felt we would not be able to restrain our men as we had done in georgia, and i would not vigorin the army less

they just launched a mcallister tug last friday the seventh. that's a good indicator production activities are backed up with a project down there and even back in work since november. we're doing all the puts and takes look at the assessment, analyzing where the are but this is a long relationship. our hope is to build 25 offshore patrol cutters. that's a program of record and that's an initial strategies, first couple independent, one per year and the strategy was to make hulls for you. that takes you out over 20 years. working closely with the eastern shipbuilding group and confident that will be a terrific cutter. the fast response cutter in the lower right, that thing is rocketed. the replaced 110-foot patrol boat with a group of 16. 24 on, we got smarter, oracle maintenance assistance, weapons assistant steam shoreside. shorted a little bit with the budget control act. we should have staffed the more robustly. we are about 50% staff but that cutter can operate out of hawaii and had out to guam and operate and west coast fisheries mission

let's take a closer look at this event so mcallister from a human rights watch welcome to dublin why does it seem so difficult for the law to differentiate between volunteers saving migrants from from drowning and people smuggling it shouldn't be difficult at all so i think this case is politicized the authorities in greece want to set that want to send a signal to help us to rescue and search out. not to do that job not to help people to deter them in order to deter refugees and migrants to come to greece ok so with what what we're looking at then is as you say that sending a signal and so this is does this indicate a sort of change of policy for greece because greece amongst other countries has been getting quite quite hard on the n.g.o.s who are involved in rescuing migrants this is actually quite ongoing there are many more people in greece in prison right now in detention waiting for trial to try to help other refugees to be rescued from from emergency situations in the sea all this actions ations against sarah madine and the others who are in detention at the moment. for exampl

. >> hi, i am melody mcallister at washington university, and i also have a question for you dr. kim. so, i have questions about both the sources, and the rules of the game for the folks who are engaging these writings of medieval history. so, are, what sources do they use, to come up with this, and i am asking seriously, when i say is this just everybody is watching game of thrones, and coming up with their ideas of religion, or do they have other more serious sources, and also, what are the limits, or, kind of , how are people policed, if they go off the rails exit even, fanfiction's communities on the internet, there's only so much you can say, before you're considered out of bounds, so either an out of bounds for people coming up with these ideas about medieval religions?>> there are no out of bounds. [ laughter ] as far as i can tell, in these spaces, i would say what is going on, is complement of different things. the entry point, into the middle ages for the general public is actually video games. and, that means that is connected to the very toxic white masculine tech sec
