that's one of the priorities. and the second priority would be to the extent that a naming rights agreement might be coming before the board at some later dates, what's some of the things you would want to know to be looking for, like what that structure should look like, so you would know what to look for. supervisor maxwell: i'd be open to that. supervisor mar: to supervisor chu's suggestion about the healthy s.f., i'm looking at my notes. tangerine brigham from department of hub health testified, and i believe the controller may already be cog a regularly scheduled audit of the assessed health plan, is that correct? >> to clarify, they have a grant from an outside consultant to look at that program. supervisor mar: ok. but i definitely agree on the revenue item, the parking on revenue from different parking properties for the city. i can't remember which one that was. but items that are revenue-generating or reducing inefficiencies in the budget, i think those should be prioritized. so i support the suggestions

our security is number one priority in this country then our veterans should also be a priority jake thanks so much which i mean for you are coming up tonight the high ranking officers in the military are instilling a new regulation about leaking and for me the public but officers do it all the time so is this rule placing a bit of a double standard on soldiers and we're going to delve into the chaos not to stare at we're not technically fighting a war there but you could have fooled me so we're going to ask is the u.s. and pakistani relationship beginning to deteriorate and if so what does that mean for the war. every month we give you the future we'll do understand how we'll get there and what tomorrow brings the best in science and technology from across russia and around the world join knology update on our g. there's no way to talk about the war in afghanistan without bringing in its neighbor pakistan in its mountainous border with afghanistan has become a safe haven for al qaeda and for the taliban and mistrust between pakistan and the u.s. runs deep continuous drone strikes ha

the priority principles were part of it, but it wasn't everything. i think that people have to remember that, that part of this is we all will make decisions and the neighborhood context on the project will happen. zoning will happen, yes, all that sort of stuff. but again, taking into consideration transit, development, all those sort of things, our priority principles. i think we need to be really clear about what those are. so anybody who picks up this document from any of the other 57 other counties in california or even in the other counties in the bay area that we want to influence, so that we're just clear. president miguel: director? >> thank you. sara asked me to kind of wrap up on what we heard here today and make comments about where we're going to head. because clearly, i think as commissioner sugaya pointed out, not everyone is going to be happy with what we do. in fact, if everybody is, i'm not sure we did the right job. i do think the two issues that kirsten started out with are very important to reiterate. the kind of conflicts, if yo

you know probably to all to well that education is so one of our priorities it's within our mandate we are the only united nations agency which works at age occasion from a holistic point of view we follow education starting from the preschool being the primary school the secondary high education also. we can see that this is an important. finalizing of the whole process of thinking what is education what does it occasionally represent in in our base world how we respond to the challenges we talk about quality education we talk also about a technical implication of training we talk about the values so within age occasion we talk about education for human rights for sustainable development so it's really an extremely important moment in the life of our organisation russians like to say you. the preschool education system is exemplary is a true by you know school standards and what makes it unique if it is i discussed yesterday with the minister for saying the challenges also which definitely are in in all of the countries say in the world about developed in developing countries and and

not with priority mail flat rate boxes from the postal service. if it fits it ships anywhere in the country for a low at rate. that is easy. best news i've heard all day! i'm soooo amped! i mean not amped. excited. well, sort of amped. really kind of in between. have you ever thought about decaf? do you think that would help? yeah. priority mail flat rate shipping starts at just $4.90, only from the postal service. a simpler way to ship.

i thought it was a priority. but not a priority in terms of substance. it is a procedural priority, not a substantive. to distinguish it from the matter is that commissioner chan has read off. commissioner hammer: i think it is a very brief issue. i think there is a consensus among us that it might be useful for public comment to move up in our agenda. and we can be responsive and put something in the future agenda. i don't think it is a big discussion. it is a brief conversation about how to redo the agenda. president marshall: i remember. two weeks then. we will take public comment on item 3. >> members of the police commission, i want to make comments on a couple of things. we have a problem over your willingness to let me, and i don't think it should be any problem. commissioner kingsley's comments about the scheduling of public comment and so forth. i have never made a statement or indicated in any way that i did not agree with the idea that you can set your agenda in any manner or form you want. what i have said is that if i see that the way you ha

it should be a number one priority for the future of the world. we have been able to make this planet changed as a global agenda -- top of the global agenda. copenhagen was not perfect. i think we have made very good progress. we're looking forward to having a very substantial progress in cancun in december of this year. i expect that we will make tangible progress in the areas of financial support for developing countries, and progress in forest degradation issues, and adaptation. in those five areas, i think we will be able to make tangible progress. much more needs to be done. the world has not come together on this issue. how to mitigate the greenhouse emissions? we have to agree on that. we have an agreement that this must be done, and then it comes to the national government level -- they have not yet come out. >> it is important for not only our physical health, but also our economic health. >> yes, of course. that is why i recently have established a high level panel on global sustainability. this is an idea of how we can lift 1 billion pe

job creation has been her top priority for san francisco. she has worked to transfer treasure island from the navy, work to clean hunters point, and transformed the transbay transit center into a multi modal facility. speaker pelosi provided the first seed money to the project which allowed us to begin the planning process to get to this point, and has consistently worked tirelessly on behalf of the transbay project, culminating of the equipment -- commitment of recovery act funds. working with president obama, speaker pelosi has focused on creating american jobs and moving the economy in a new direction. under her leadership, congress passed tough wall street reform legislation to rein in big banks and protect consumers. historic health care reform is for promised achievement and she continues to be done energy, security to create jobs, combat climate change, and physician america to a clean energy economy. thank you, speaker pelosi for everything that you have done. [applause] >> thank you. good morning. thank you all very much. i accept y

i would feel more comfortable going -- i think the broad priorities are the right priorities. i would feel more comfortable with the afterschool part of it if we could say to schools where we're eliminating a bus to an offsite afterschool program that is not sfusd, that we will guaranteed you a capacity onsite program. that is where we want to be and where we should be going. it's such a huge ask to say to parents, sorry, you signed up for this school and you have been busing your kids offsite to this afterschool program. it's not available anymore and we'll send you somewhere else. i don't think we can say that. if we're prepared to say instead every time we take way a route to an offsite afterschool program, we will provide you the capacity of anon site afterschool program at the school. >> thank you, commissioner. we will have an afterschool program in the event that there is not one available at the elementary school. currently there are some schools that offer afterschool to maybe two child development programs and for nonsfusd program. so any given school may have six af

and correct our priorities to game. the moon and of course if we succeed in the lines that we have chosen we need to look at her. find new lines of development for men as for the asian pacific region this is the most rapidly developing region in the world are you. a live human today it is. well law but it has home to over fifty percent of the global g.d.p. if the theme is that on the go to the who is what you live for and cooperation with all the countries that are currently in the asia pacific region is a key priority for us and. the reason for that well one reason for that is one simple russia is also a country of the a.p.r. that wasn't participating though bill is you know an economic processes going on here so if i didn't warrant i think this is why the fight is reporting to what i'm going participates in everything that's going on here this is why i would pay so much much attention they should live. to work within their own forum but in their bag. like any other regional forum is are very important to us as well wh

it has to be a priority to reform the retirement system. we should go to a defined contribution program. it is a prudent approach. it will help carry us forward in the future. >> mr. reid, you had the next question. this is from james in reno. i had a son named james in reno. [laughter] retirees have seen almost a 400% increase in their health insurance premium. deductibles could go to $1,000 a year. did the candidates plan to continue the degradation of our once excellent health insurance program by placing more of the cost on the backs of retirees? >> absolutely not. in my budget proposal, we talk about what we must do with medicaid. over $1 billion is being spent in the data every year on medicaid. we do not do it as far as we could. that leads to reimbursements being reduced and burdens on senior citizens. my budget proposal talks about how we change that. we need to eliminate the waste, fraud, and abuse. we need more managed care. when the to focus on things that will make people's lives better but will be less expensive. the data has

we had a meeting just recently, and we have been working on distilling what the priorities are for this year. we have a process for how we come to that. what we came away with or middle school assignments and redesign program placements. parent engagement around the school and the superintendent. of the change of transportation policy, and also, student nutrition. we also wanted to work on teacher admin quality in the after-school programs. implementing the parent engagement plan and issues around special ed. a little detail of how we are looking at these. our vision being involved with the middle school project is not simply to come out with a pattern. we know that middle school is often the transition where we lose families, and we want to look at how to better engaged the communities, parents, students, and educators. and also, which programs we should have. that is all part of it. we understand these things are all closely connected. a round the school improvement grounds and the superintendent of zone -- zones, families would like to know more about what the plans are to engage the

what happened to the priority for books and open hours? in fact, the public was promised a minimum service hours of 1,211 hours per week. the current schedule has been cut by 14% and the schedule is only 1,040 hours. the library is taking $1.6 million out of the books and materials budget and reducing the book budget by a full 15%. in city hall, fooling the voters is considered evidence of sophistication. the public has been asked several times and they always place materials and collections as the highest priority. what was the guaranteed funding for? branches are closed. service is down, and the supervisors are powerless. the real priority was to make it a public-private partnership. if you are on any place in the public, political spectrum, on the left, the public library is an income stream for your enemies. without accountability, democracy has no power and we are slaves to those who control the means to discriminate information. thank you. president chiu: thank you. next speaker. >> good afternoon, supervisors, president chiu. mr. bi

lie can it face to the east and the west equally our priorities are east and west russia is european russia is asian some people say russia is just an independent central power some say that russia should be part of the western community some say that russia should look eastward or southern southward. my feeling is russia can build on its relationship with the worst but it is quite unrealistic to assume that it can become part of the west because integrating into the western community in the e.u. it means membership in the un nato which is quite problematic. russia in my mind is too big and too russian both for your opinion and for nato. they're not eager to see russia inside well goals are is russia pursuing by proposing at common european security strategy russia's goal is to make russia part of the european security the irony of the situation that russia which is an important country in europe. a important state is not pored over european security system as of today the european security system is nato where they are part of it so the proposal of means video to build common securi

finding those buildings and retro fitting them to prevent a catastrophic event is priority. and falling hazards within buildings. the data on this is not very good, but one of the studies that have been done shows about half of the jurebs in an earthquake come from these falling hazards, interior. not every building falls down so the sources of injuries come from contents falling down within buildings. so the non-structural hazards are also a familiar concern. so when we look at safety? san francisco, the concrete buildings, they were built around 1980 is the source of about 50% of the casualties. that becomes one of our policy directions. our second is the residential wood frames buildings that have a soft story. those are ones that programs are already underway to start dealing with. then the other buildings make up the smaller percent. we can look at losses in a variety of ways. we try to look at them in terms of how they impact san francisco. we feel that in a magnitude 7.2 earthquake. san francisco will lose about 85,000 housing units. buildings with multiple residents

and they're not really aligned with the board's current priorities. so what does our current transportation look like? we have -- we utilize 44 buses and making about five to six trips a day. so that services about 3,300 students, 59 different elementary schools. elementary schools as well as 358 students to seven middle schools. and in terms of afterschool, that 950 students from 50 elementary schools are transported to 19 s.f.u. child development centers and over 30 nonsfusd after school programs. so that's what we do now. one of the questions that the board asked us is well, how did we get here? and so janice guard won couldn't be here tonight -- janice garden who couldn't be here tonight gave us a little bit of history how we got here. he explained that in the 1970's, we had the horseshoe plan where the school district was divided into seven zones and students were transported to support a 4-6 configuration. in the 1980's we launched a redesign and schools were reconfigured into k-5, six, eight, and alternative schools. and the district was divide

priority mail flat rate envelopes. just $4.90. only from the postal service.pler way to ship. >> joe: tim lincecum had an out-of-nowhere relief appearance for san francisco. struck out the first man. gave up back-to-back hits. brian wilson takes over. has six five-out saves in the regular season. ruiz takes a strike. wilson has the most four-plus out saves in baseball this year. one of those opportunities for the division series, game two against atlanta in san francisco. this post season. ruiz. nicely blocked by posey to keep the runners at first and second. >> joe: the 1-1. right side. out. throw to second. double play! and the inning is over. victorino is doubled off second. and a line drive to first. got renteria and the ining is over. phillies get two hits, leave a man and stranded nine. in the ninth we go. san francisco on top! with two. know what else you get with every new toyota? wow... what is it? peace of mind... a complimentary maintenance plan with roadside assistance. it's called toyota care and we're the only full-line brand to offer anything li

he sat down with political analyst nikonov who believes that russia's priorities lie in both the east and the west the special interview next. which is loving kind of thank you very much for your time and agreeing to my pleasure now one of your recent article says that russian democracy still making baby steps is also something that we've been hearing for the past twenty years what is coming in its way to becoming full fledged the most important thing is history heritage. all the western countries started democratic development in the eighteenth century they had the legal basis for democratic development russia hasn't been illegal state and when you start to create democratic institution with no established legal system. there causes corruption. causes only potence or those in power it causes wars about you know or wealth. it causes. wars about property and property in the rights of that well established so i think that is the major problem for russia no. before making great steps leaps in democratic development the government has to establish the legal system here there and democracy

then the next priority would be board of examiner. the seats on this board expired on september 15, just a couple of weeks ago, i suppose. we need to find 10 people for 10 sea seats. should i read off the seats? no. president murphy: please do. commissioner lee: the 17 seats for code advisory are reserved for people in these categories. major project architect. small project architect. historical preservation architect. someone from the commercial property owner or manager. major project structural engineer. mechanical engineer. electrical engineer. fire protection engineer. small project civil engineer. major project contractor. residential project contractor. remodeling contractor. disability access advocate. general business community member. three public at-large members. that is 17 seats. the two seats we need to appoint on access appeals commissioner reserved for two people with construction experience who are contractors. the 10 seats on the board of examiners are reserved for one archite architect, one structural engineer. one

i spoke up and we had to have other priorities. families are struggling and i've always given money back from my budget to make sure it can be spent on other priorities. we did not give any money -- she did not give any money back on luxury cars. the real issue is she wants to talk about the past because she wants to cut new mexico budget by 50%. one of the first things to go will be critical services like child care for our families. it will be money to our public schools. that is what will happen under susanna martinez. she will cut the budget by 50% and you won't have child care anymore. >> i am not sure where you are getting this 50% cut. you must be making it up. i want to talk about the past because there is no greater predictor of the future that your past record i have deliver. result for people in my community who do not have a voice in the courtroom. i have taken a beyond the courtroom and make sure i have fought for those families in changing block. you want a promotion and you can i get a promotion, as you talk about th

you're choosing among priorities, and they did not give this deferred maintenance priority at texas city refinery the attention, the priority, it should have gotten. >> narrator: the pressure to cut costs came from the very top of bp. after the buyout of amoco, tony hayward's predecessor, lord john browne, ordered a 25% cost cut across the company. the message was relayed down through the ranks. >> i don't know if they realized just how devastating the cost cutting ethos was when it actually played out in the field. when there is a whisper at the top of the company, it becomes like a shout at the bottom. >> you were starting to hear a little bit more about, "make due with what you got and try to make it more efficient." so you were taking older equipment and pushed it to a hilt. if something didn't blow up, it was a good day. >> narrator: in march 2004, there was a major fire. fortunately, it was in an unmanned part of the refinery. nobody was hurt, but problems continued. don parus, a safety conscious engineer, took over the refinery a few months later and was trying to turn things arou

is paying for college tuition a priority for you? caller: yes, it is a priority. my problem is, i've got two daughters who are four years apart. one is a sophomore at university of kentucky and the other is a sophomore in high school. two years ago when this market meltdown happen, my daughter's college plans lost about 50%. i am having to shift money from the retirement account to pay for college. i assumed it would have all been paid for. host: what about student loans? have you decided against that? caller: no, i haven't. but i see too many kids coming out of college with a lot of debt. when they get a job, their priority is paying on the student loan. it makes the life style for them very difficult. host: the article talks about that this is reverberating in washington, this issue. i wondering what you would like to see your elected representatives do on this issue when it comes to the cost of college tuition. caller: i would like to see them kind of keep a cap on it of some sort. the universities -- our public universities have been increasing about 5% a year
