these will be a specialized neurosciences institute and a new hospital that will replace the existing hospital and provide for new medical office space or expansion space. we also propose to discuss a detailed overview of the rounds surrounding the improvements. at the third and final informational hearing, we are proposing to look at the development agreement. this is a vehicle for moralizing a series of -- that can easily be dealt with through standard use of approval. this is through workforce development, housing, transportation, health care agreements. -- will provide the documents at may 12th. we proposed a presentation on the request followed by initiation of the general plan amendments. certification and action is currently scheduled for about a month on june 9th. if there is a topic we have not included in the schedule that you think would be helpful for the commission and public to understand the project, please let me know. that concludes my presentation. >> good evening. this will not be the last time that we will be meeting together in joint commission because of the role

newspaper is neuroscience in the mainstream today? >> i really think it is. you can't turn on charlie rose without seeing it. >> rose: that's true. >> we have a great section in our newspaper "science times." and i really think it's become the field. when freud hit the scene he had an effect on literary culture and everything. i remember looking at the knew republic they had a freudian columnist in who would analyze world events from a freudian perception so he'd say the soviet union was in its age sdaj this is week. stuff like that. but now it's filling in because i think a lot of what's happened is a lot of the fields that told us who we are have receded a little: theology, philosophy. they're doing important work in those fields. >> rose: why have they receded? >> i'm not sure why. i think they've had less of a public impact, let's say, than maybe they did in the 1950s when you d reinhold niebuhr, real big public theologians. now for whatever reason i'd say we have big public scientists or neuroscientists. wilson was on this show many times and other peopl

for the past three years researchers for the neurosciences institute in san diego have been analyzing of her ability to synchronize to a musical beat. they say the findings may give scientists fresh insight into using the power of music and movement to alleviate human disorders like parkinson's. >>louisa: really cute, not so cute outside the. were continuing to see spotty showers through the overnight and into tomorrow. i will have the details of this wet weather straight ahead. california should be proud. we were the first to ban smoking on airplanes. the first to have smoke-free bars and restaurants. all while saving over $86 billion in health care costs... and over a million lives. we've done a good job. but even if you were born today, you'd still grow up in a world where tobacco kills more people... than aids, drugs, alcohol, murder and car crashes... combined. we have a lot more work to do.

excellence where patients come from northern california to get care for surgery, transplants, neurosciences, and we're very proud of our obstetrics program. this is an opportunity for us to build much nicer facilities, better healing environments for patients. they will all be private rooms. they will have the ability to -- this is a picture of what we hope the new st. luke's will look like. we recognize the need to control rising health care costs, consolidation of two of our campuses will help us do that by reducing duplication of expensive equipment, having a more energy-efficient building, reducing administrative function. we would like to optimize the distribution of care throughout san francisco and the integrated delivery system. we would like to quote of the former -- and this will not exist in the city because there are not enough specialists and to be very good at something, you have to do a lot of it. here is our construction schedule. you will note that it has us starting in 2011 with completion of the campus which is a slightly easier campus to build. that will enable us to be

adrianne ahern shows you how to rewire your brain using recent discoveries in neuroscience. >> ahern: you already have the most powerful tools imaginable within your own system. you just don't know you have them. >> announcer: and she reveals how breathing plays a critical role in health and in helping you carve new positive neural pathways. >> ahern: breathing is also critical for your mental and emotional health, as well as rewiring the neural pathways in your brain. >> hi, i am sherry kuehl. we are taking a brief break from snap out of it now! for you to show your support for public television. and in addition, we're offering some great thank-you gifts. imagine if we all rewired our brains to align with what we really want, how outstanding that outcome can be, to overcome years of ingrained conditioned beliefs through simply recognizing them and resetting those thoughts and beliefs. wow, we all want success, love, and the american dream, and as dr. ahern mentioned, most of us fall flat--or rather in a rut-- with regard to those ambitions. i am so glad this program is teaching us so

cutting edge neuroscience proves it.anned the brains of london cab drivers, who have to remember how to navigate an entire city, and found they seem to be storing the information in the visual parts of their brain. >> when we were hunter-gatherers, remembering phone numbers was not that important. >> reporter: foer agreed to teach me how to remember five random words by building something called a "memory palace." which is simple, and something anybody can do. it's a structure in your imagination where you place things that you want to remember. for my memory palace, i chose my childhood home. >> the first word's "microwave." >> reporter: okay. >> so, you would actually see an image of a microwave doing something really crazy outside the front door of your parents' place. >> reporter: okay. >> so, like, zapping, you know, maybe it's frying a cat or something. >> reporter: and that's the real trick here. scientists say, the more provocative the image, the easier it is to remember. another one of the words is "lively," for

in terms of, we've, we've learned a lot in the last 25 years in terms of i think particularly neuroscience findings, that have really elucidated the mechanisms, the kind of brain damage that occurs as a function of chronic exposure to alcohol and other drugs. and this has really helped us really understand what's really going on and why people who historically have been viewed as having weak character and weak will, is really a function of brain damage which impairs their ability to regulate those impulses. and that's i think very, very important. and i think given that understanding, i think it's very important that we establish and convey the new terms as people have talked about. for example, calling it a disorder, if it's a disorder, a substance abuse disorder, and of course when you use the term substance, according to someone, as having a substance abuse disorder as, as opposed to a substance abuser. the distinction there i think can be, when you stop and think about it, can be quite clear. one's more of a medical connotation, the other one's more of a judgmental in identifying the i

but when you understand it from a neuroscience standpoint, they're really not selfish. what they are is inflexible. there are many ways to help this system, and this is such an interesting system. so the first thing, if you have this problem and you notice you get a thought in your head more than three times, i want you to physically get up and go do something else. the act of distracting yourself helps to get these thoughts out of your head. people who have a high cingulate do better with options. so if you're married to a person like this, never go, "okay, we're going to dinner here," even if "here" is their very favorite restaurant. don't do that. it's always better to go, "you know, we could go here, or we could go here. what would you like?" and if you give them options, they do so much better. reverse psychology. now, reverse psychology does not work for everybody, but it really works with these people. so if you're living with a difficult cingulate person, a sneaky strategy that works is to ask them to do the opposite of what you want them to do. it's sort of lik
