what we see in the powerpoint, the intimation would have blown you away.ou're just going have to believe me m on this one. [laughter] remember, i hadr said there was this slide we have in the middle of the right of war and in congress and diplomacy, immunity prosecution and new economic sanctions. then the animation would've gone and you would've seen this new slide which we call the new world order where you have a prohibition on war, no conquest, noat gunboat diplomacy , crime of aggression and then finally the possibility of economic sanctions. what you do is you see an entire international system for on your on a very short time because of this piece of paper signed in 1928. again, it doesn't happen all at once, they really don't know what they are doing. it's like, to give the obamacare analogy, what if congress had repealed obamacare but not replace it. it would been chaos. it would've taken a long time to put it together but this is not just the health system of the united states this is the international system involving all the states of the world

sf gov, can i have the powerpoint please? desiree smith, planning department staff. this was initialing -- on december #t7 -- [ inaudible ] unanimously voted to recommend landmark designation. located at 2117, 2123 market street, new erahall is -- [ inaudible ] of upper market street as a commercial corridor. as well as the visalia stock saddle business. the building is a purpose mixed use building with social hall and mixed-use frontage. it's one of only nine examples of its type and retain a high degree of architectural integrity. it provided krucrucial meeting space for the oddfellows, knights of columbus, and others. it housed the sivisalia stock saddle company, contributing to the veemt of today what is known as the western saddle design. new erahall retains the established features that were the two periods of significance, 1909 to 1911, and 1918 to 1923. department received a letter in support of designation from land time tenant academy of ballet, and cross roads training initially sent a letter of opposition, it has revoked that after sitting down with the p

the thing is i normally give this talk with a powerpoint. and it has pictures and diagrams and cool animation. it is very helpful to see how the old world order changes, but they said if you want to be on tv you couldn't have the powerpoint. and so i was thinking, don't want to give a good talk and not be on tv? [laughing] or a a lousy talk and be on tv? so -- [laughing] hi, mom. [laughing] anyway, what you would've seen,, what you would have seen is a slide that has in the center it says right of war, and there would have been for circles emanating from it. when what it said right of conquest. the other one would said right of diplomacy, and below you would've seen immunity to prosecution for war. and finally duties of impartiality. the duties of impartiality are really important because that was what prevented new tools from opposing sanctions on illiterates. things that we do every day now were violations of the laws of war. so that's what you would have seen. okay. now i've been describing this very abstracted but the book is called "the

while i'm waiting for the powerpoint to come up, i wanted to recognize that leon winston with source of plow shares with here, and i have a few slides on the background for this item and then ask leon to come up and say a few words, as well. so what we're proposing today is an option to lease for parcel c-3.2, which is an r-1sub phase of development between tida and sourceable outshares. just on background, as board members know, but members of the public may not be aware, the treasure island navel stati navial station was selected for closure in 1993, and in 1994, the island entered into a base housing initiative, now known as one treasure island to develop a portion of the affordable housing on the island. and included in member agencies of one treasure island are community housing partnership, catholic charities, source 360, and other entities such as rubicon and toolworks. in the 2011 program entitlement and transaction documents, one of the exhibited to the dda was the housing plan, which set out the framework for the development of the affordable housing on the island. under th

. >> could you pull up the powerpoint in there? >> great. thanks so much, lindsey. so i've spent the last year researching the scope and effects of obama's deer colleague letter on school discipline and i want to share with you what i've learned. first, this was not guidance, these were orders. on stens ably there was a three part impact test. one, is there disparity? two, is the policy necessary for legitimate goal? three, is there an effective alternative? maybe not unreasonable, but not what they actually did. see, because suspensions don't work and there are effective alternatives available. if we know the answer to the second and third question, then there's only one actual question. is there a disparity? and if there is, you might face a federal investigation. and if it's about the numbers, what you better do is get the numbers down and the most effective way to get the numbers down is by holding students to lower standards. because if you don't, then you're going to face an investigation. now, these investigations used to be noble and diligent efforts to find

research from harvard that shows that the same identical pitch from a man versus a woman, same powerpointlide, and the same investors, the man gets funded 68% more likely, almost 70% more likely, right? and i think that that's completely unfair. >> i see a lot of women in the bay area who now do not want to go work for a startup where there's no h.r. they don't want to go work for a company that's just 10 men. and so if men are trying to have the best chance at business success, they need to hire women from the very start, or else it's very hard to steer a ship once it's already in that direction. >> we are so forgetting we're half the world. we are half the world. there's 50% men and 50% women. who controls most of the economic clout in the universe? women. it's something like 77% of all spend in the universe is by women. it's trillions and trillions and trillions of dollars. >> thank you all so much for that. really appreciate it. if you're facing sexual harassment at work, hopefully you see through our conversation today that you are not alone, that you have a voice. if you are dealing

embassy here in moscow now twenty two old souls very and students of the six light powerpoint document was sent to eighty top level for the officials in moscow and the documents stated that russia without doubt was responsible and the poisoning of the x. double agent and his daughter and nobody has a kind of a once again said that russia was calling for corporations in the investigation for many times but still has no information concerning the case. after we drew attention to the publication of these presentation materials in the media the british foreign office then just on their twitter account imagine that they ignored the four diplomatic notes we sent them they haven't informed us about the state that the russian nationals are in they have given us no information but they say that the reason is that they feel there is no need to talk to russia but they think just on twitter. now she also called this whole situation cynical in the extreme she said that at first she didn't believe that these lies were the proof of russia's involvement but then the foreign office thanked the russian

however denies any involvement in the poisoning and accuses london of a campaign to blame russia now powerpoint slides have been revealed which form the basis on which the us and half the support of britain's expulsion of russian diplomats the six lines of focus on accusations against moscow they described the nerve agent allegedly used and blame russia for the attack without providing any proof the so-called evidence includes claims of previous malicious activity by moscow these include cyber attacks alleged election interference and what the presentation calls the occupation of crimea where russia's foreign ministry describes the claims as speculation and branded them the product of an organized political campaign without any evidence and not even presenting any concrete snorri of what happened along the accused russia of poisoning its own citizens speculated about the chemical substance never used in russia and organized an extensive political media campaign it inspired the baseless expulsion of russian diplomats from a number of countries and international organizations announced the range

involvement in the poisoning it accuses london of orchestrating a campaign to get russia blamed now the powerpoint slides have been revealed these are the sludge for the basis on which the us and half of the e.u. backed britain's expulsion of russian diplomats so take a look at the six pages focus on accusations against russia number one page of the report shows the timeline of how the script unfolded the second focuses on the nerve agent itself and claims that russia's behind the attack of though without providing any proof of guilt so-called evidence that includes accusations of previous malign activity by moscow such as cyber attacks alleged interference in international elections and what the presentation calls the occupation of crimea russia's foreign ministries describe the claims as speculation and has branded this an organized political campaign without any evidence and not even presenting any concrete scenario of what's happened london accused russia of poisoning its own citizens to develop a chemical substance never used in russia and organize an extensive political and media campaign it

, before you start, in your binder, so in case you want to pull it out under number four is the powerpoint for the executive summary. >> oh, but our screens are so clear now. we can see it digitally. >> good evening, commissioners. commission president adams, vice president dwight, and other small business commissioners. joaquin torres, deputy director here at the office of economic and workforce development. thank you for the commendation for all of the team. we're here to thank you very much for having us. tonight we're here to talk to you about an overview of our recently completed state of the retail sector, challenges and opportunities for san francisco retail neighborhood commercial districts, and that will be presented by amy cohen, our director of neighborhood programs and invested neighborhoods. she's going to review some of the data and implications for the retail study, highlight some policy items, and then we'll also discuss some of our economic development programs in addition to some of the recommendations that have come out of the study so far. our public meetings so far hav

. >> i have a powerpoint presentation. >> it is so clear now. >> all right.good afternoon, commissioners. thank you for the opportunity to present to you today. my name is rhea august innal do, assistant case manager for the office of small business. in addition to staffing the business assistance counter, i help the office support business programs. i support rick with the legacy business program and the accessible business entrance program to create and implement outreach and education program. the purpose of this presentation today is to give you a background, overview of what the program is, and our goals in terms of outreach in education for the program. please note our office is in the early stages of outreach for the program. we are still developing materials, we are still actively reach you go out to stakeholders, including business organizations. given the first date to compliance is may 23rd, 2018, we wanted to make sure you understand where things stand with the program and our goals going forward. a bit of background about the accessible business

who can speak to this a little more is desiree smith from the planning department, and she has a powerpoint. >> good afternoon, supervisors. this is desiree smith with the planning department. item before you is the recommendation to recommend landmark designation on the diamond safety wall, in the diamond heights neighborhood. the property was nominated for landmark designation through a community sponsored landmark application submitted by robert pulliam to october 21st, 2017. on november 18, 2017, the -- [ inaudible ] the diamond height safety wall is significant under criteria a. a planning effort led by the san francisco redevelopment agency from 1961 to 1978 that resulted in a dramt atic reshaping of the area. the area regional modernist designed mixed housing policies and extensive use of san francisco, glenn canyon and the bay. it's also significant under criteria c as a notable work of bay area artists and artwork, and is a visual landmark, a gateway in diamond heights. this period of significance is 1968, which corresponds with the year of construction. the structure also retains

it's a very large and complex budget, and she's not -- not only not gifted at operating powerpoint slides back and forward, but she's very gifted at all this work. i want to acknowledge her and all the folks that have worked on this budget to date. >> excellent. excellent. it is. [ inaudible ] >> if people don't have computers at home, they can always go use the computers at the library, because i believe on wednesday, some of the libraries are open late. it comes back to us. when will we and the public get to see the actual numbers, the big file, the big budget book that people always love to pore over. >> so as director reiskin mentioned, we'll be before you with better numbers next time. it won't be completely balanced, but close to balancing. you'll see the book right before the april 3rd meeting, sometimes the first of march to the third week of march. >> excellent. and if there are no other questions, we will move on. madam chair, item 13 is to take a vote and go into possible closed session. >> we'll take a vote. all in favor, aye? all opposed? we'll go into closed session, but tak

he said just because you have a powerpoint presentation may be a lower level employee may not be a big record. less is more. i trial that could go on for a couple of months. that could be good advice. you may recognize him from years ago. he represented jeff skilling. and even president trump. so trump university cases. into your point not directly involved in this. but his comments about cnn had been called by the ceo of at&t the elephant in the room. they have said this case has nothing to do with that. it's all about consumers in a crisis. we will see. my eyes start to glaze over immediately. let's have back to the the latest market plunge. we are down nearly 500 points now were down a mere 384. countdown is coming right back. you can find out that this was left. i accept i don't bike the miles i used to. i even accept i have a higher risk of stroke due to afib, a type of irregular heartbeat not caused by a heart valve problem. but no matter where i ride, i go for my best. so if there's something better than warfarin, i'll go for that too. eliquis. eliquis reduced the risk of stroke

about maintaining this landmark structure, i wanted to show a couple pictures if we can do the powerpoint. depending how familiar you are with the project, the bridge was constructed in 1933. here is a couple photos from opening day and subsequent photos showing the condition of the bridge, and what i would like to emphasize is the scope of our project is not to change the bridge but rather to repair and maintain the bridge because it is subject to continual deterioration in the saltwater environment, and there is an ongoing need to repair it. it has been repaired many times over its lifespan, and in this case we have an opportunity to do a comprehensive repair to many items that have exhibited corrosion and other deterioration. i just wanted to show you a few photos of the deteriorated conditions. here is an example of one of the main base plates. you can see significant rust and another condition where the corrosion is in need every pair -- of the repair. you can see the deck corrosion and deterioration of the concrete curb. this is some examples where there is missing bolts. here is a

sfgovtv, i have a powerpoint presentation. the application before you today is for your consideration for the business to be included on the legacy business registry. the application was reviewed by me for completion, then submitted to planning department staff on february 7th for their review. historic preservation commission heard the application on march 7th and made a positive recommendation to the small business commission. for the applicant, the commission has been provided a staff report, a draft resolution, the application, a case report from planning department staff and rose lution from the historic preservation commission. there are copies on the table for the public. the applicant is kabuki springs and spa. the largest japanese bathhouse and spa, known for communal bathing facility, world class massage, skin care and body treatments. the business was developed in 1968 as an essential part of the japan cultural and "tradecentre". kabuki building which was a separate development featured dinner theater, sushi bar and

call me on the phone and asked me that question because the general wanted to know for his powerpoint slide. i did a very unprofessional thing and i hung up on him. i didn't have the time i hung up finally i said let me find out so that's great what does it mean? the general had just bought a brand-new ford f1 50 truck. you will love this. 417million pounds would allow both of you to drive your truck 2685 trips to the moon or eight roundtrips to the sun. that is what we did in 23 days i cheated a little bit and used 20 miles to the gallon to make the math easier i am a political science major. [laughter] but on a typical day with 911 noble eagle we were doing about six or 8 million pounds per day that would allow you to make 161 roundtrips to the moon in the f1 50. unfortunately for me that made it into the newspapers back home is the general said what did you do with my truck? because it was in the news he knew what i had done he was chiding me he was a great commander one of the best i had ever worked for. so i tell you this because in this book i want you to understand nobody kicks

. >> so while we're waiting for the powerpoint to come up, we provided an update last month, and we -- following the -- the open house that we'd had on january 20th, and today, i wanted to give you an update on the progress that -- that arws has made in -- you know, in engaging with existing residents on consultations on what their benefits are and what their options will be in the future. so although we're about four years away from our -- from the project that we -- we just discussed being ready for occupancy, we do want to start the process of engaging the pre-dda market rate households in the discussion about what their rights and benefits are so that we can -- we can inform the construction of our affordable projects as they come forward. so we had the january community meeting. we've been conducting the household interviews and our intention is may-june of this year to be issuing letters of eligiblity to residents. as i mentioned at the -- previously at our open house, out of our roughly 200 potentially eligible households, we had 155 residents representing 113 eligible househol

i think there will be a powerpoint. so at this time, let me -- >> i'm sorry.eputy superintendent, before you begin, there was a question by a commissioner. >> thank you, president mendoza. i guess my question is, before we begin, i'm just trying to grasp, what is the intent after this presentation? what do you want from us? >> thank you, commissioner. so we -- after the two buildings and grounds committee meetings, we as staff wanted to have sense of the board about -- and the city as well wants a sense of the board about your collective support or reluctance for the proposals to move forward. so tonight is an informational item. it's not being presented to you for an action, but we do think that this is a good opportunity for us to hear from you about what, in general, you would like to see happen with these proposal, whether we as staff should represent on the district's behalf that you support the proposals or whether there are enough concerns that we would recommend against the proposals proceeding. >> so we really want something on record in terms of what

[laughter] speaking of technology, this is the first presentation i have given with powerpoint. i know that it shocks you. it happens to be true. any glitches that takes place, i hope you will excuse. i want to start with another caveat, i am not a military historian. [laughter] i like that thinking. i think there are many people in the audience tonight who know a great deal more about ulysses s. grant's military career than i do. i am a political historian. i have devoted my career to that period she was talking about. that is obviously a period in which ulysses s. grant played an important part. another kind of caveat i would like to mention, relates to labeling. i will talk tonight about the republican party and the democratic party. the same labels we use for modern day. what i want to emphasize is that the two-party sets were quite different. the republicans of the late 19th century's tended to be more of the activist party, the party centered more toward national government endeavor. and strong defenders of minority rights are democrats and that period, of reconstruction,

[applause] >> could you pull up the powerpoint? max: i have spent the last year researching the scope and effect of the dear letter on discipline. i want to share what i have learned. first, this was not guidance. these were orders. there was a three-part disparate impact test. one, is there to spare to? two, is it necessary for eight legitimate goal? three, is there an effective alternative? maybe not unreasonable, not what they actually did. suspensions don't work, and there are effective alternatives available. if we know the answer to the second and third question, then there is only one actual question, is there a disparity? if there is some of you might face a federal investigation. if it is about the numbers, what you better do is get the numbers down. the most effective way to get the numbers down is by holding students to lower standards. because if you don't, you will face an investigation. these investigations used to be noble and diligent efforts to find discriminatory treatments. after the guidance, they became syntax

[applause] >> could you pull of the powerpoint? next: -- max: i have spent the last year researching the scope and effect of the dear letter on discipline. i want to share what i have learned. first, this was not guidance. these were orders. there was a three-part disparate impact test. one, is there to spare to? is it necessary for eight legitimate goal? three, is there an effective alternative? maybe not unreasonable, not what they actually did. suspensions don't work, and there are effective alternatives available. if we know the answer to the second and third question, then there is only one actual question, is there a disparity? if there is some of you might face a federal investigation. the numbers, what you better do is get the numbers down. the most effective way to get the numbers down is by holding students to lower standards. because if you don't, you will face an investigation. to beinvestigations used noble and diligent efforts to find discriminatory treatments. after the guidance, they became syntax for prosecutions i

called me on the phone and ask me that question, because his general wanted to know for his powerpointslide. i did a very unprofessional thing. i hung up on him. i didn't have time. he called me three times. finally wore me down. the third time i said let me find out. that was the number i i came up with, 470 million pounds. this is great, this is great, what does it mean. general mike moseley had just bought a brand-new ford f1 50. do any of you have a ford f1 50 truck? you will love this, okay? 417 million pounds allow both of you to drive your truck 2685 265 roundtrips to the moon or eight roundtrips to the sun. that's what we did in 23 days. i cheated a little bit. i use 20 miles per gallon just because it makes the math easier. i'm a political science major. i don't do math. and my job was math, all right? on a typical day during the 9/11 noble eagle we were doing about six to 8 million pounds per day. that would allow you to make 161 roundtrips to the moon in your f1 50 truck. unfortunately for me that made into all the newspapers back home and general moseley came up to me and s

and the next day the pentagon came back with a powerpoint coming up everything the officials have said over the years thing we're going to defeat the taliban. and they said okay well, i guess we have to say something. eventually they came out of the review with the plan to degrade the taliban in reverse the momentum.language that is so strikingly vague. as a war aim it just begs examination. i mentioned that these reviews returned to the vital interest of the security of pakistan's nuclear weapons. i think that was also fairly easy consensus to reach. but what did it imply? it meant the stability pakistan, the military control of the countries nuclear control disclosure. so the more -- it spilled violence over the board pushing al qaeda into pakistan. and touching office dimensions the worst years of internal terrorism that they've ever known. so you have dozens of militant groups, more than 100 nuclear weapons and a worsening work. now you recognize that directorate "s" is part of the problem afghanistan but what can you depression when you are so constrained that you have already des

i will try to get this on powerpoint, if not, we will have a backup plan.ted to thank, first and david, graciously allowing us to be able to come here to engage on what i think is an important topic. this topic, in particular, dealing with the experience of african-american muslims, and the report in particular started off with the organization i work with now, the oldest organization in the world the work that i currently do, i had our efforts in north america, engaging in the africa portfolio as well. i think this opportunity we have today is engaging on a critical issue, dealing with the oldest muslim community in the united states. studying throughout west africa, senegal, mali, gandia, the middle east as well, one of the most important things that came up when i was , -- this is very local to being in the middle east. -- youthat if you have have not experienced islam in the united states. that is important because african-american muslims, the descendents of enslaved africans, have been in united states of america since inception. builds up the great c

so, right when i was making this powerpoint up, i contacted a dispatcher and asked him how does 9-1-1 work because before it used to go to vallejo. now if it goes off at cell towers, but the cell towers being busy, that phone call will be bounced back to the c.h.p. so you have to give them what's going on. the minute this is happening, people are getting hurt. if you can try to programme this number in, 553-8090. put it under san francisco dispatch. that is the emergency line for civilians. this is already preprogrammed. call s.f.p.d. and lit go right to them. don't assume other people are calling law enforcement because often people don't. the more calls we get based off this, the more it tells us this is legit. this is going to be something big. if we get five, six, seven, eight calls on this. one more. so this is information to give to the 9-1-1 operator. location, physical description of the shooter, and number and type of weapon held by a shooter and the number of potential victims at the location. you don't have to tell me for the weapon, the glock nine. it's funny because that

you haven't seen a powerpoint slide in such a long time. with that i am going to introduce our panelists, again you heather bios and their bios tell you what they want you to hear. but am going to give you a little bit, share a bit of information about what i kind of know about them. bill hoagland is senior vice president at the bipartisan policy center, and while we don't know each other, in fact, it is the first day we officially met come still turns out with a lot more in common than you might imagine. like you i am now the hoosier. we moved to indiana about four years ago after lifting nearly all of my life in and around the d.c. area. i now live in a a small town in the northern part of the state. there are many small towns in indiana, so i live in one of them. and i can call myself a hoosier. when they do that in indiana if you haven't been there like 1 million years you still get that look, not really. you go back to d.c. once in a while, right? i live there now. your family farms and it's also been recognized by the state of indiana

i think we have some powerpoint we're going to try to use.hank peter along with , who graciously allowed us to come here and engage on what i think is an important topic. this topic is dealing with the experience of african-american muslims. ,he report, i should start off with the oldest organization in the world working -- composed of former -- themselves. i had our efforts in all of north america using our africa portfolio as well. todaypportunity we have on a critical issue dealing with the oldest muslim community in the united states. study in traditional islamic centers of learning, and one of the most important things that --e up when i was there was this is very local to the middle east. but we say that if you have not had -- in united states, you have not experienced islam in the united states. i think that is important because african-american muslims dissented from enslaved africans have been in the united states since its inception. this report is based off the contributions of enslaved african americans coming to the united states
