we thank you for calling to this hearing -- i have a very short powerpoint to submit to the hearing this morning, and i can give a copy to the public. a number of limitations -- about three years ago, by the board of supervisors. that ordinance requires the comptroller to submit monthly overtime reports to the mayor and the board, identifying these departments and their overtime. we have the existing ordinance requiring overtime twice per year, estimating the total over time. finally, the administrative code section also established the individual employees for the city and the county, stating that they could not earn more than 30% of the overtime as compared to the straight time. in this fiscal year, over time spending is estimated to be about $40 million, more than has been budgeted for overtime. this is $12 million more than the overtime spent last year. this is based on the evidence of about seven months, and generally, the department that is getting the overtime budget has the available dollars in the regular account to pay for the work. this is based on a straight line projection,

we have a powerpoint that was presented at our recent principles and administrative meeting for the school district, and it is an update of our [inaudible] very high-tech. on the budget situation, both for the state of california and how it impacts our school district. as you may be aware, in january, usually, the governor comes out with a proposed budget for the year -- the upcoming fiscal year. which is what governor brown did sometime in january and projected a $26.7 billion budget deficit for the state and a proposal on how to bridge that gap. a crucial part of the proposal was to extend those temporary tax increases that have been put in place two years ago. if you recall, those were an increase to the state sales tax and the legal license fee and a couple of other items, as well as identify some cuts to be made outside of k-12 education. so he acknowledged -- the government acknowledged that education in the past has borne the brunt of most of the cuts every time the state had a deficit, and he made a pretty valiant attempt to keep these cuts away from schools, k-12 education for the

going through too many details, i am going to call up our chief of probation, who has prepared a powerpoint that is going to give us the entire overview of a.b. 109 and give you the groundwork of the direction san francisco is moving in before we give the floor over to the rest of our partners. supervisor mirkarimi: very good. thank you. good morning. any time you are ready. ok. you might want to use that microphone. yes. >> thank you very much. i appreciate the opportunity to speak to the public safety committee. a.b. 19 -- supervisor mirkarimi: you might want to introduce yourself formally. >> the public safety realignment is built upon the framework of senate bill 678, which is helpful to understand what the elements are of the actual proposal. i talked to the public safety committee earlier about six months ago. it is evidence-based probation supervision. the framework of that is to use science and best practices to improve outcomes to reduce recidivism, and to not rely on traditional incarceration and other methods to supervise. to bring in with that risk and needs assessment, individu

one of my personal pet peeves is powerpoints. everyone ries on it. it makes you lazy. am looking at the screen so often as opposed to talking with you. talk to me about how it is face- to-face with people that you connect when so much of what we do is this until -- digital presentation. >> you are right. you can ask some of the most powerful people who have created digital presentations, they will tell you that you have to get in the room face to face. you would not make life or business decisions unless you could look them in the arts. attitude is equally important to aptitude. when the chips are down, attitude really counts. to be able to overcome failure, you want to see that and feel that. that is the way we're wired. we have 40,000 years of genetic transportation of that. tavis: this is so much in the book. there are some great stories of wanted to get to tonight. the conversation with another way. i think you get the point he is sharing. you can in fact persuade and tryout with the hidden power of story. he mentioned a bunch of names that tell great stories to pe

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, you have more people standing on the aisle. that makes it harder to get on and harder to get off the tissue have to wonder way through the crowded aisles. in terms of making it clear to the passengers, there is a switch back or a turn back, again, with the articulating buses within the 7100 series but with all of the 40 foot buses, there is already voice announcement system. it does also have an autocomponent that plays in three languages announcement simply about the feet. the digital system only functions right now in english. why could it not have some simple announcements for a switch back or turn back in spanish, with chinese characters, that peo

. >> reporter: armed with a powerpoint sales pitch, ryan is traveling his district to explain and defend his controversial budget overhaul. >> we say leave medicare intact for current seniors as it is today, reform it for the next generation so that it doesn't go bankrupt -- >> reporter: under his plan those under 55 would shop for private health insurance and get federal money to pay part of the premium based on financial need, a drastic change. >> my concern is that my 48-year-old son is not going to have medicare. >> reporter: that scares and angers many voters in ryan's back yard. >> do not renew the bush tax credit for the wealthy. [ cheers and applause ] >> reporter: ryan is strongly backed by republican leaders, and many here say ryan is right and the political risk he's taking is worth it. >> i admire what he's doing because he's taking it on. >> i can go do something else with my life. i sleep very soundly knowing that what i'm trying to do is help fix this country's problems. >> reporter: and at one of the stops there was a standing ovation for ryan. at a couple of the events t

you heard and saw in the powerpoint that there is se

i'm used to presenting my work with fancy powerpoint slides behind the. whereas here i am only confronted with the pros i'm proud to read in front of you. in some ways part of this exercise, one of the purposes of writing this was to satirize what a lot of international relations scholarship sounds like. so hopefully you'll get a sense of that. rather than trying to explain what it is i'm going to read certain portions of the book, in particular the preface which event is a better job explaining what i'm trying to than me trying to buy what i was trying to do. our pottery for about 20 mins i think and then i'll be happy to take questions. so we'll start with the preface. 15 years ago on a cross-country drive i stopped to visit graceland. by the time i to hit the jungle room it was obvious the 30 odd people walking through elvis presley's mansion fell into two groups. the first continue was thoroughly utterly sincere in their devotion to all things elvis. they were hard-core fans and graceland was their mecca, there jerusalem and their realm. many of them

move on dot org not to mention center for american progress of lee himself the latest find is a powerpoint presentation listing dozens of organizations and individuals with the chambers said these are their words discredit confuse shame combat infiltrate fracture in addition the u.s. congress is currently looking into the matter as well as whether or not these private data security firms are also contracting with the us government last week in an armed services subcommittee hearing. and johnson pressed terry aki acting assistant secretary for the department of defense office of networks and information integration about current government contracts for the firm was involved in the chamber leak scandal you know what and i would like to request copies of been you know contracts between a department of defense and the country to go to three country that i mentioned h.b. gary federal pell and clear technology technology would you be able to prove me with that information and also be chairman of the committee. i don't have that information directly myself but certainly i can i have staff resear

and the third section of the dvd contains all the materials, the powerpoint materials, our message training, our tips on successful media interviews, that folks can use to further their skills as they go along through this training. you have recently gotten involved with faces and voices of recovery, laura, tell me why you got involved with faces and voices of recovery and why you, what brought you to this work? i am so thrilled to be part of this organization, i'm really proud to be part of it. they have a message that is very near and dear to my heart, which is sharing the message of hope and recovery, to having a new way of life. i took away from the messaging that i attended last fall, that there are right words to use and, and not so good words to use. for example, we want to talk about recovery, we don't want to talk about addiction. addiction is where people are stuck in the problem. recovery is where people get into the solution and that's what it's all about, giving people hope and healing and a new way of life. some of the main questions that we receive is, what kind of training i

early 2000s kind of captured the zeitgeist of the department of defense and had a couple famous powerpoint briefings that he would go out and deliver to military audiences which explained how the post-9/11 world had shifted. but i drilled a little bit more into sort of what he was arguing, and part of what he was also getting at was that there needed to be something like kind of a nation-building cadre available and ready on call to address what he called these gap states, these failing states. i think e called it the -- i think he called it the fifth advent force. and his idea was you've got the leviathan, the army, you know, the big forces that go in this and kind of do regime change fundamentally. they go knock over, you know, nations if called on to do so. but then you need people who are on call, and they're kind of a mix of diplomat, aid worker, boy scout, u.s. marine, you know, kind of this mishmash of different things. but he was one of the early people who kind of articulated it in a lot of ways and tried to explain what the new reality was to people in the department of defense.

months and then after several months of these cabinets audience meetings where they bring the slick powerpoint presentations and they tell them they're all going to lose their jobs or they review their performance records workers vote down units because they're afraid of their bosses and this could be a similar case short not every worker is going to feel pressured by this but enough workers that this is an unfair advantage look a union cannot come into a workplace and hold all the meetings about will pick candidates it once is poor but they can vote a labor union meeting and have that same kind of discussion with their members cracked sure but they cannot require their members to attend that meeting a corporation now under citizens united can require their workers to attend long meetings about voting for republicans now this is very dangerous most voters don't get very much information and if you have you know in the average in to unit campaign they hold eleven capitol audience meetings with the workers now if you have a levin meetings with split power points where you have in charge and all

there is a powerpoint, and one of the things we said, members, in the 1950's coming here is what it meant. -- in the 1950's, here is what it meant. you have to be an active part of rebuilding this in america. and i think it is really important to point out one of the reasons why unionization has fallen so far. the national labor relations act, we had a campaign in north carolina, where the workers of reorganized down the road, one block away from where they were. they saw the significant difference we made in workers' lives. the companies continue to be very successful, and the company did not agree to any fair practice, so we used another fair practice. 221 to 223. massive violations filed by the national labor relations board with that corporation. you know that today, seven years later, every single member of the uaw at organizing person has been fired or driven out. we are taking direct action. we will not let them violate the first amendment rights, freedom of speech, the right to be a union and to have collective bargaining. our allies and friends, internationally, to join us in bra

he taught himself powerpoint, and at the yearly science fairs, he won, i think, three years running,d prize, so he had a lot of fun with that. >> smith: but according to neighbors and friends, it was a troubled family. >> i always got the feeling that bradley was scared of his dad, like, in a somewhat kind of unnatural kind of way. >> smith: jordan davis was bradley's closest friend. >> like, more scared than he should be, you know what i mean? like, everybody's kind of scared of their dad. i mean, that's kind of the... the familiar dynamic. i think he was probably very controlling and wanted things a certain way. and you know, that people didn't come over. i asked if i could come over, and he would give me some kind of excuse or whatever. i mean, that's just weird. it's weird. >> smith: when bradley was 13, his parents separated, and after a bitter divorce, his mom moved out, taking bradley with her. >> bradley was never visibly upset about it. if anything, he seemed relieved. as soon as his dad, you know, left and stuff, he started, like, doing his hair, and he got different clothe

because now, the... the pressure is on teaching kind of scintillating powerpoint things that will distract them from the web. >> so, you've hit on most of the key points. i just gave my class a midterm, and i was really asking obvious questions that, had they been attending carefully in lecture, and had they been doing the readings carefully, everyone should have gotten 100% on this exam, and the mean score was probably about a 75%. it's not that the students are dumb. it's not that they're not trying. i think they're trying in a way that's not as effective as it could be because they're distracted by everything else. >> i have 25 in the last 15 minutes. i feel like the professors here do have to accept that we can multitask very well and that we do at all times. and so, if they try and restrict us from doing it, it's almost unfair because we are completely capable,oving in between lecture and other things, and just keeping track of the many things that are going on in our lives. >> dretzin: no one's actually measured whether these kids are as successful at multitasking as they claim to be

microphone i will report -- repeat your answers, but the first question is going to be, if i can get my powerpoint going here, one moment, there we go. what is your first memory of a first lady? and i know some of you so i can call on you if no one is brave enough to raise a hand. i know that you all have memories. tell me, yes. [inaudible] >> eleanor roosevelt when you are a teeny tiny child. barely crawling. just an infant but somehow you remember eleanor roosevelt. what do you recall about her? >> impressive speaker. i have to recall looking back, and so to be she came across as rather dowdy but i'm sure at the time she didn't. >> well, we will talk about that and next week i know with marine you will be talked about her book on eleanor roosevelt, and it was my pleasure to serve as a reviewer for the book so you will be in for a real treat to hear marine and hear her book. but keep that thought about the impressive speaking abilities of eleanor roosevelt andover fashion because we will compare and contrast the jacqueline kennedy. of the first ladies, your first impression, your first memory of

going to do something a little out of character for a retired general officer, i will not use any powerpoint. [laughter] my remarks are designed to stimulate the follow-on discussion that think where people come to these evince find the most benefits. i would give you my bottom line right up front. i believe that the future of remotely piloted and/or automatic aircraft is very promising. it is going to be very complex and subject to a lot of confusion. in part, that is due to the continued use of an accurate terminology -- inaccurate terminology and an absence of definitions. some examples. the title of this segment, for one. i would tell you that air power in the future will not be on manned -- unmanned. they may have aircraft that are not inhabited, but those aircraft will be controlled by people. to what degree of economy they employed is where lies the significant policy implications. let me give you another example. today there are few if any unmanned aircraft systems. this is something that, like product in the last session. he showed a chart. there is nothing unmanned about the system

and we have some people who use outlook-excel-powerpoint and we have some people who use just email and so we have different scale users. what you want to do is you want to buy the access that you want and then you want to move employees to whatever level of performance they need. so this is kind of cloud computing, plus desktop computing. and so basically we said to microsoft, you know, there are others in this business as well. we want a competitive price, but we're not paying for every single desktop-laptop. we want to pay by use and we want to have an incentive for us to reduce the use, not to increase it. so let's reprice the whole relationship and let's make sure we have the best of collaborative tools. well, we saved $50 million. not an insignificant amount of money even by new york city standards and it dramatically well over the next few years increased the availability of these tools to all of our workers. >> is it your personal goal to slice $50 million -- $500 million from the budget? >> at least. that's -- i'd like to measure it in billions. five hundred million -- $5 milli

something a little bit out of character for a retired general officer and i'm not going to use any powerpoint. [laughter] but my remarks are actually designed to stimulate the following discussions that i think is generally where people come and find the most benefit. i'll give you my bottom line right up front and that is that i certainly believe that the future of remotely piloted and/or automated aircraft is very, very promising. .. those aircraft will be controlled by people and to what degree of autonomy they employed is where lies the significant policy implications. with the give you another example. today there are few if any unmanned aircraft systems. this is one of the top. the colonel black brought up in the last session he shows you the charge. there's really nothing unmanned about this system at all except for as the colonel and referred to that piece of fiberglass up the front end of the system that takes nominally about 180 people to maintain one a predator reaper order to and on the order of 400 per global hot. yet the majority of the department of defense uses this terminolog

i told you i'm just learning powerpoint. but what this slide tries to do is just look at each school along three indices. what are the idea ages of each school and policy goals of each school and what are the tactics each school uses to try to achieve its goals. i tried to do for the chinese. again for the sake of time we'll walk through this but there are very distinct origins and goals and tactics that each adopts. then i steal an idea from dick samuels paper at least in moscow at our last sfwaerting. -- gathering. dick, you had a very nice chart graphic. your position japanese schools were on kind of a active-passive, pro and anti--u.s. spectrum. so i tried to position myself schools on a similar kind of spectrum and what you find is what you hopefully can see, the good news here is that the major powers, the globalists and the asia first-responders are potential candidates for cooperation with the united states. selective multilateralists to some extent as we argue in the paper the selective multilateralists they're sele

let me gohrough some quick powerpoints. that is driving our budget? take a look at these charts. our entitlement programs are the drivers of our budget. this is the primary drivers of our budget. failure to address the big drivers of ourdebt, particularly the health care entitlement programs is not to address our debt. next chart, please. the more we kick the can down the road, the wse it gets. the fiscal gap shoulde the next chart. look at this chart. the general accountability office has been telling us for years we are making all of these unfunded promises to americans and the more we kick the can down the rod, we go about $10 trillion deeper down the hole. we can get this under contro and get it in our terms but time is of the essence. next chart, please. debt held by the deficit path. this is the other thing. let's go to the last one. i see we're bouncing around. go to the who shares the debt. the past, we've lenlts money to ourselves. rld war ii, our debt went up as high as the entire size of the economy, but most americans bought war bonds. 1970, a small fraction of the de

. >> how do i get out of this powerpoint thing? mr digital die? [laughter] >> i think it hurleysim is working this morning. when jim brought me on he endowed with an enormous budget of $0 and said go forth and collaborate. what we want to show you in three minutes is how we are using that platform to increase the voices and public media, how we're using digital technology to take the content where communities already exist and what we think are interesting experiment in the future of storytelling in three minutes. what you will see is we talked about the immigration debate with an individual from tucson's local journalism center and san diego, we talked to someone in boise, idaho. it cost me zero dollars because they taped themselves and we had a speakerphone conversation that they sent back to me overs the internet. no satellite costs involved. if you don't have a studio how about these two blotters from cape cod, massachusetts and portland, oregon who reported themselves on their mac books and sent it back to me and we had a video conversation a

so with that, i apologize in advance for one of the most land powerpoint presentations you will see thatub is good pictures you have a lovely sheep. nice touch. [laughter] i have three key points to make. the first event that that is no sign of a korean iranian plan to do with the gcc states. the second point out that you make without getting into each of these points as they go through the presentation is that there is one consistency that you can detect from iran vis-À-vis these uprising is the rhetoric. and you can say this is the kind of rhetoric you can expect. the iran republic has bested you can see the iranians are retaliating against what's coming their way. there's nothing unusual about it. as i said before, the question is, is this enough for the iranian policy in the region? is rhetoric alone could not? you are being charged as meddling in the affairs of by rain. even american officials say iran is not the key driver behind what is going on in bahrain. and yet you go about with your church talking about bringing down its various regimes and so forth. i just wonder if that kin

so, with that, and i apologize in advance for one of the most bland powerpoint presentation you'll see after all the good pictures you've seen. i love the sheep by the way. [laughter] three points. the first is no sign of the iranian plan to deal with the gcc states. second point, and i'll get into the points as i go on. is there one consistency that you can detect from iran in vis-a-vis these uprisings is the rhetoric? you can say, well, this is a rhetoric you can expect. this is the islamic republic at its best. you can say, well, they are just retaliating against the saudi arabia and so forth. there's nothing unusual about it. as i said before, the question is is this enough for the iranian policy in the region? is rhetoric alone good enough? you're charged with meddling in the afires of -- affairs of bahrain even though they are not the key driver if iran really has a role at all. yet, you are going about with your rhetoric, talking about bringing down various regimes and so forth. i just wonder if that kind of a line, just having it both ways can be sustained in the face of the re

so with that and i apologize in advance one of the most bland powerpoint presentations we will see afterall those good pictures you have. i love this sheet by the way. that was a nice touch. [laughter] to key points to make, the first one as i said is no sign of a land to deal with the gcc states. the second point i like to me, and i'll get into each of these points as i go through the presentation, is, is there one consistency you can detect from iran in these uprisings is the rhetoric. and you can say this is a kind of rhetoric you can expect. islamic republic at it's best if you can even say the iranians are in retaliate against the rhetoric that is coming their way from saudi arabia. there's nothing unusual. but as i said before the question is, is this enough for the iranian policy in the region? is rhetoric alone good enough? you again charged with meddling in the affairs of bahrain, even if american officials are saying iran is not the key driver behind what's going on behind bahrain, if iran has a role at all. and yet you're going about with your rhetoric talking upbringing of th
