mr. lawrence and been in the city and county of san francisco for 45 years. i have been a taxi driver for the last 16 years in the city. i am not here to disrupt the meeting or so-called financial issues but i am here to present facts that in five observations at this commission that i have noticed there isn't one discussion of the taxi issues. number one is this is that over the past four years the sfmta has taken over the taxi commission and we have chaos today. anybody that wants to get into the car can be a taxi driver and go up to the new terminal and pick up passengers. if you look around the area and the hotels and taxi planning never took place. the only place i see it in the city and county is sfo and partially in the embarcadero but not completely. i consider this trans bay project equivalent to the embarcadero center, one, two, three and basically where you have no taxi plan whatsoever. two, is briefly i make this statement because i have applied for the taxi director position four times in 10 years and -- [inaudible] to this commission but you're

mr. lawrence karnow. >> i think we should do this more often. >> i think so. the whole show can be weather. >> thank you very much! [ laughter ] >> i think that's a great idea, guys. hey, you know, kind of interesting. we are in the dog days of summer now. we have seen a lot of low clouds and fog around the bay area. yesterday, we had that heavy drizzle. today, still a little bit of drizzle outside but not as bad. skies clearing out a bit outside. we'll see a little more sunshine the next couple of days as high pressure is going to start to nudge its way in. let's get out there now. we have sun and clouds back towards san francisco. the marin headlands. we are seeing some of those clouds lingering. and a pretty good breeze developing around the bay area today. into san jose, well, we have some sunshine breaking out there. looking toward the new levi's stadium, it looks like more sun into the afternoon for them. should be a very pleasant day in san jose. but if you are planning a trip to the beach, yeah, grab your jacket or coat. you may need it. it's going to

mr. jones in the courtroom could probably outperform sir lawrence olivier.t that way. >> he could overpower you, overcontrol you, and he was not beyond saying things that he couldn't prove if they weren't challenged. >> early in the first trial, anderson challenged jones by objecting that a single thumbprint was not enough to arrest elmore. >> in order to obtain an arrest warrant, the police obtain an upside down thumbprint on the back outside door frame. that's exactly consistent with cleaning the windows. cleaning the door. that is not probable cause in anywhere else in america that i'm aware of. but willie t. said, oh, well i'm glad you brought that up. the forensic pathologist let us know that she had located negroid pubic hairs on the victim's chest and abdomen. the defense shut their mouths and sat down. >> if elmore's hair had in fact been found on the body, this was a new and explosive claim, a claim that went unchallenged by geddes anderson. >> did you ask to see that evidence? >> you would have to look at the transcript to see. i don't know if i di

mr. lee's riveting testimony last night live there on the lawrence o'donnell show. msnbc.com national reporter trymaine lee and who have both been on the scene in ferguson, missouri. are other reporters feeling nervous about the situation escalating further like it it did last night? >> i think at this point, earlier this morning it was the calm after the storm and already people are starting to gather. you can hear behind me the horns are honking and people are still chanting, but with all of the leaders in the country with their eyes focused on ferguson and with the world watching and with all of the media surrounding this town to see how it will go next, with will politicians saying that now is the time for peace and it's time to demilitarize the situation, you know, people hope that it will be calm, but once night falls who knows what will happen? >> i was always thinking why don't people protest during the day? they have jobs. they have to go to work and they have to come home and be able to express their own amendment rights to protest. >> president obama met

word to his then-deputy, lawrence eagleberger, who later became secretary of state, i don't want negroponte assigned anywhere where i might meet him. and eagleberger said, well, mr. secretary, there's an agreement with the foreign service association that once someone has been assigned, the only way of changing the assignment is to abolish his position. and to which kissinger's rejoinder was, well, abolish it, then. which is what happened. and negroponte was again relegated to the foreign service pool, offered the job of consul general in turkey. the then ambassador to turkey, william macomber, quite understandably, took the view that assigning someone of greek extraction to the scene of the smyrna massacre in 1922 might not be well-received by the turks. so, negroponte instead was assigned at consul general in -- not stimulating for someone with roots in the greek shipping industry. after his tenure there, where he got married, he then received another rather minor assignment during the kissinger era as assistant secretary of state for fisheries. the fishing industry is not a big factor in the american economy. it amounts to about $6 billion a year in an $18 tr

lawrence o'brien, who was chairman of the democratic presidential committee. they found in an investigation of howard hughes, there was some information connecting him to mr. o'brien. so mr. airlicman instructed secretary schultz to investigate and interview o'brien about his tax returns because the president was interested. thereafter, because of the inquiry, the irs did interview mr. o'brien and they finished schultz with the interview. it didn't indicate anything particularly bad so on august 29, schultz, together with the internal revenue service, decided that they would do nothing further about o'brien. they notified him they were dropping the matter and of course, mr. erlicman strenuously objected. but they wouldn't leave it alone at that point. a couple days later in early september, mr. erluqman got in touch with the president's loyal personal attorney and fund-raiser and told him to go up to las vegas, nevada, and plant the story with hank gre greenspun of the las vegas sun, i believe it was. >> two and a half minutes. >> he refused to do so, but this is a part of the pattern of misuse of the internal revenue service. >> gentleman from texas. >> m

lawrence kovalinsky from john jay college. >> good morning. >> what was the biggest finding? >> the biggest finding is that all the shots hit mr. of michael brown, dorian johnson was that michael brown had been running away from the vehicle and a shot was fired. that apparently is false. he was not shot in the back. what a pathologist does is look at entrance and exit wounds. it is clear that no shot was fired at his back. >> what does it tell you that they all came in through the front and they were all on one side? >> what you want to learn from the analysis is the position of the victim relative to the shooter. it's my opinion that seeing four shots to the right arm was an investigation to me that the police officer wanted to stop him. it's the last two shots that struck him in the head that really stopped him permanently. the last shot to the skull was a lethal shot. >> they say no gunpowder detected. do we have an indication how far away the officer may have been? >> yeah. if you have the clothing you can look at gunshot residue. even without it, you could look at what's called stippling or tattooing, if it's a close-in sh
