does include a powerpoint. commissioner chan: i notice that there is a little difference in terms of a standard on page two of the new dgo, page 3 of the old one, but the biggest one is that there is no provision for using a firearm where someone is impaired. i just noticed that. i am wondering if that is in another dgo, so you do not need that? >> i think some of the tweaking of the language was done with the help of the city attorney, as well. i am satisfied with the current language, but i think it was part of the tweaking done by the city attorney. do you have a comment? director hicks: it was vetted by the city attorney. the occ was not part of those meetings, but that is an exclamation -- explanation. >> i believe general orders 202 and 203 go to that. vice president marshall: commissioner dejesus? commissioner dejesus: the information that is in the bulletin, you put on the powerpoint? i am concerned if it does not consistently shown, or is old, that we might lose that todd karkovice, so i would just adv

you should know that is part of a current powerpoint slide that we are using. we have included them in the trading. vice president marshall: thank you, commander mahoney. director hicks? director hicks: i would be remiss if i do not mention someone, who has worked tirelessly on this issue for several years. et vice president marshall: -- vice president marshall: commissioner chan? commissioner chan: i want to thank you for working on this. a response to direct hits -- to director hicks. >> it is now part of the training. the language is very consistent with what is in the department, and like i said, that is one of our powerpoint slides now.

that is powerpoint. it was made in a powerpoint on a windows computer. it was e-mailed to me. i can see it on this ipad and i can see it not only in some one special apple app-- there is one-- but i can see it... there's third party... there's at least half a dozen third party apps that will let me either see powerpoint decks or even create them and edit them. word documents, spreadsheets. now, not as quite with every feature that a full-blown computer would have yet but remember, charlie, this is about a year. it's a little less than a year since it started and you can do this. and, you know, then you can go back and play angry birds if you want. >> rose:. >> rose: (laughs) i love it. >> google is building one, too, but this app is powerful and to david's point, just speaking personally, i read the economists on here, i read the "wall street journal," i read the "new york times," i read all things digital, my web site, i read the "new yorker" on here. and they're very good experiences. >> rose: and the implications of that for those print publication is what? this is the futu

i had a powerpoint slide entitled "afghanistan does not equal iraq." i owe it to you to give some broader observations as well. the bottom line is that in might view, afghanistan will be the longest campaign in a long war. at that time there was a perception. i remember sitting in iraq wondering why i had not taken the afghan job when i had the chance. the that was the war that we were winning going away. the truth was, it was already starting to spiral downward. the taliban were already reestablishing safe havens. it is only in the set -- in the past six months that we have taken away mall omar's home town. -- mullah omar's hometown. certainly we had challenges in marja. it was an unfortunate -- in the first of march this year, there was an election for a committee counsel. it followed a very spirited debate. 75% of the registered voters cast a ballot. they now have the community council and a district governor as well. that is generally true of the other districts. there is no question there is some serious fighting to be done there, particularly as

as we mentioned in the beginning, and i think there is a slide on this powerpoint, it talks about we had a mandated three-year cycle. then the second year is use the needs assessment to come up with exactly what you're talking about, the action plan. so what will our department specifically do in terms of prioritizing what populations, what types of services, and that is a public document called the children service allocation plan, which we do then present to commissions, just like we do with the needs assessment, to get feedback, that sort of thing. part of that process is also gathering information from each of the city entities about how much money they spend on services, so there can be a mapping of resources. then, looking at what departments are currently spending on children, youth, and families, we can look at the children's fund to figure out where the gaps are, where are the needs that are not being addressed by existing expenditures. that is something that will be out next year, called the children service allocation plan, and that is what we used to then inform the next

i'm going to cue up each developer's powerpoint and invite them up to introduce themselves. amy is going to start the clock. anybody who asks me, i will gently give you a one-minute warning. otherwise, you will get a buzzer a minute later. so we want to move this along. first is san francisco waterfront partners. >> good afternoon. i'm a principal with pacific waterfront partners. i apologize to commissioner crowley because i'm going to go really quickly through what we have done. a lot of it has to do with the court. thank you for entertaining us. thank you for listening to us. if we were successful, this would be the fourth project we did with the port, and we have had a relationship with them that extends beyond 10 years. our team is san francisco waterfront partners. it is a partnership between california state teachers retirement system and pacific waterfront partners, and the principal partner here is fresh back from maternity leave for this event. this is a diagram that you probably cannot read, which basically sets forth the consulting team. they are working with us

you heard and saw in the powerpoint that there is some substitution of 40 foot coach's 460-foot. i think that begs the interest as to why the 60-foot coaches are not in service, because when the buses get overly crowded, that is when the service slows down dramatically, and that is when buses, the lack of preventive maintenance, scheduled maintenance, repairs, that, i think, contributes to usage of vehicles. when you have a 40-foot,

summaries of their works by each of the authors, and in some cases, these summaries include brief powerpoint presentations. i'd like to ask the audience to please hold questions until all three authors finished. i'll provide brief introductions before each author begins their presentation. i'd also like to request that the audience consider presenting their questions very concisely. primarily so we can preserve as much time as possible to listen to the authors' responses. perhaps in some cases we can follow-up with additional questions depending upon how this group is. we can meet the authors and have a more detailed discussion after the session, and when they proceed to the signing area where they sign their books. obviously, copies of the authors' books will be available for sale at that signing area. by way of introduction, i'd like to say that today there's three very distinguished and accomplished authors who've written excellent accounts concerning the most important environmental and ecological issues of our time. not only are these books highly authoritative and credible, but they, i

so i have -- i guess everybody has a powerpoint by but i'm just going to -- rather than making a grind through that, just kind of cut to the chase a little bit. i should say one thing that the brennan center has been doing a little more clv presentations and if you would like us to fly out for the whole dog and pony show for cle credit let me know. really, the story does in terms of the current disclosure laws -- it really does start with citizens united, which we all know about. and citizens united has to some degree certainly helped to increase the amount of money that's being spent in politics. there is a chart that public citizen put out that i put in this slide that shows how money has been going up. especially spending by outside groups which is what we're primarily focused on when we talk about disclosure concerns right now. according to public citizen the outside spending in 2010 was more than four times as much as the midterm election in 2006. almost as much was spent in the 2008 presidential election. and obviously the friend was going up before citizens united, you know, we

i have to use one powerpoint here at least and to allow my team to demonstrate its expertise with don't you show the election there it's right after the great debate which really was apparently neat stuff. this is them running this. there are ten schools open now in marjah and there were zero under the taliban. there's afghans teaching the schools, not us. we may have helped rebuild the schools. lots of work in preparing the irrigation systems, the markets that used to sell almost exclusively in illegal narcotics and explosives there's now or about 1500 markets and a self households, goods and clothing. again, it's the afghan district governor who has done this. is our funding critical? it has been in the beginning over time we have to build those institutions, help them build those institutions so they can take that on for themselves. clearly they've also got to begin the process of exploiting for the afghan people the trillions of dollars of minerals on the ground in afghanistan and that is a fact. it's also a fact they don't have the extracted technology and capital transportation ch
