permit to legalize a change of use of approximately 2,850 square feet on the ground floor at the mezzanine level of an existing two-story building to change the use from automotive repair to amusement game arcade and restaurant uses. the business doing business as redemption. the project includes interior alterations to the ground floor and no work on the second floor which is occupied by a professional service use. the project site is located at the intersection of 19th street and is a two-story industrial building. a request for discretionary review was on july 25, 2019 by kevin of the cultural action network. that discretionary review application which includes his concerns and proposed alternative it is is attached in your staff report packet as well as a response from the discretionary review response from the project sponsor. to date the permit has received eight letters of support for the project as well as a letter of opposition to the project in support of the dr. the department's recommendation is for the approval of the project as the proposed arcade, general entertainment use a

so whether there were others who did not try to escape, we have seen people up on this mezzanine areaot appear to try to leave so there is definitely a hundred or so still left on campus. do you know whether the police are trying to keep the campus? the duke of york is said to be standing by his decision to give a television interview about his disgraced former friend jeffrey epstein, and allegations made against him personally. prince andrew told the bbc he didnt regret his association with epstein, while admitting it was a mistake to stay with him in new york in 2010, when he was a convicted sex offender. he also denied the allegations of virginia roberts who says she had sex with him in london when she was 17. 0ur royal correspondent nicholas witchell reports. your royal highness, we've come to buckingham palace... the interview has been heard, andrew's answers have been noted, with incredulity in some quarters and, one suspects, with something close to despair within the royal household. the reaction to his words in most cases has been negative. the consensus — in pr terms — the i

so whether there were others who did not try to escape, we have seen people up on this mezzanine arear to try to leave so there is definitely a hundred or so still left on campus. do you know whether the police are trying to keep the campus? do you know what the police are trying to do with the protesters still there? we know that the entire area has been cordoned, you cannot go in and out without going through a police checkpoint. our understanding is that everyone who goes through will have their id and their bag checked. last night we heard stories that people who were here as medic and various other observers were being arrested as they left. we have not tried that yet. so we will see. but certainly they do not want the protesters to leave but that strikes me as allowing the confrontation to continue, and also the campus is very difficult to storm. you mentioned in the preview about the fires, there is a single staircase up fires, there is a single staircase up here and then narrow bridges that go across in the protesters could defend those with large fires if they need to. and wh

seeing a lot of movement from other asset classes into early stage, mid-stage growth as well as mezzanine financing. i think a lot of these companies have saturated the market at this point, and i think the right thing in the current ipo climate might be to look at if you are profitable or you have enough cash on your balance sheet, why not do a direct listing? i think that in certain cases makes a ton of sense. be direct listing is a better route if you do not need to raise a ton of cash at the actual offering date. taylor: you mentioned profitability. i have to ask -- is that even anything on your radar, or you really don't care given how early in investor you are and you are ok 5, 10 years out? >> i compare it to being in the deep ocean versus the turbulent surface of the scene. we are investing so early in a company's lifetime that we are really at the cusp of where technology is applied to create an interesting offering for customers and participants. we are not looking at profitability at seed stage. we are looking at can you find product market fit with your particular concept? tay

so that will take the place of the first commission meeting in december and it's going to be at mezzanine. we just felt it was timely to have it at that venue because of all of the challenges that they've gone through over the last year and just have a nice celebration as we round out what looks like the end of their term there, at the end of this year. and this year, the only big difference you'll notice is we won't do live entertainment in terms of bands. we'll probably just have a dj so more flexibility to network and mingle. if there's anything else, though, you would like at our holiday party this year, talk to me off-line, especially regarding speakers or food ideas, that kind of thing. any questions? >> thank you. >> thank you very much. is there any public comment on the executive director's report? seeing none, public comment is closed. and the next agenda item is number four, a report from the deputy director ozavito. >> thank you, and good evening, commissioners. before we dive into the report, a couple of updates to let you know about. one is that we're receiving a ton of resi

he was in the mezzanine area and viktor came up and sat down with carlos and andrew and with his bodyguarde first things that came out from viktor to carlos was i'm sorry about your loss. the farc had just lost one of their senior commanders in colombia. and viktor had done his research on this. and was testing the source. and carlos was sharp enough to say, yes, thank you very much. and he mentioned the commander's name during that conversation. which probably put viktor at ease. >> we were sitting on the bar. we were drinking tea. we decided there was a good place to have this type of conversation. >> viktor said let's go up to the 27th floor. there's a business center up there and they go up to have the meeting there. carlos' safety and the safety of the other sources is one of our number one concerns. viktor is one of the most ruthless arms traffickers in the world. weapons could be smuggled in through russian criminal networks in thailand which are rampant. we had no idea if viktor was bringing a gun to that meeting. there are so many unknowns. so they went up to the conference room a

about a year ago when this first started dreaming about this, he mentioned in the plans there a mezzanine which is like a second story that would be created in this which hopefully would contain some of my games, miniature games i make. they are 40 percent size. [off mic] they are literally child-sized games. [laughter] so i make those games. and i've lived in the mission when i first moved here at 21st and florida. i lived in the upper hayes the last ten years. there's an arcade in the upper haight which again echoing the economic concerns is both a print shop, they make screen print t-shirts which is how they support the arcade. i work there on the weekends and if i had to encourage you to go there any day, it's full of kids playing my games, specifically parents showing their kids the games and the kids being approachable for the kids as well. i'm a blue collar worker. i repair arcade games. i need clients like joey to be able to live in the city. so i would encourage you to approve this request. thank you very much. >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> hi, there. my name is dan bald

welcome aboard the mezzanine level. so what did you think? ainsley: neither side is giving up.song is perfectly appropriate this morning. brian: day two more. today a day to pause and reflect almost sports like. you have a big game and then you give a day to come bang and recalibrate and then on friday they are forced to work, these lawmakers. they should be legislating. go back and featuring the ambassador from ukraine. what i thought overall is i don't know who got converted. and the pressure is on the democrats to convert somebody. because if the game doesn't change after four or five weeks and we get into thanksgiving and christmas and everyone stays in their lane, and nothing gets done and the government doesn't get funded, who is going to look bad? steve: the democrats are not good tv producers. that was a tv show. we were talking about it yesterday. in a tv show in the premier episode you want it to be really engaging. you want people to know there who know stuff heard it with their own ears. brian: that wasn't enough? someone dressed up in drag that wasn't a good tv sho
