that is how much faith i do have said they will be remedied. >> thank you. seeing no further comment, thank you board members for all of these questions, and thank you staff. commissioner yee: there are a few here that have no comments on there. i am looking at the health one, for example. are we not ordering bookstack? >> as it says in the report, we will not have what has been asked for for teachers. it just says there are not for each student a book. >> roll call, please. [roll is called] seven ayes. >> thank-you. delegates, if you hear about anything from your schools, contact other staff members on this issue. item and is discussion of other educational issues. there are nine tonight. we are now at item n -- item m is discussion of other educational issues. there are none tonight. now we are at item n -- consent calendar resolutions. do we have a report from staff? i am going to ask the board if we have questions or comments. >> i am want to thank the staff for the changes in this resolution. i was the one who had raised some questions about language th

that mean we would not need these other remedies, but we are a long way off from that being the national standard, unfortunately. what i work with people on every day as cleaning their records up to the extent allowable under california law, so cleaning your record up to the extent allowable under california state law is really different from saying "clean slate." i feel like we are at best raising expectations unfairly because there is no clean slate in california, but we are trying to improve the laws that there are and expand them. actually, this session and assembly -- my coworker who works on policy in my office has been successful in working with community partners and putting forward ab 2068, and it is really a technical fix, not sending terribly exciting, and if i say it, your eyeballs will fall out of your head, but it basically updates penal code section 1204a the expunge men or dismissal remedy, and brings it up to the same level as 120 3.4. the point is in some cases, people who can get that a remedy for cases when they did not go to prison, there will be eligible to legally

the point is in some cases, people who can get that a remedy for cases when they did not go to prison, there will be eligible to legally say -- some people, certain jobs, they are able to answer "no convictions" for certain jobs, but again, is a far cry from now even having to answer those questions. the problem with the laws in california are that they are very piecemeal. they were written over a long stretch of time. they do not really interact with each other very well, and did not do as much -- i feel like i am being so negative, so i'm going to try to think of something positive. they do sell certain people. a major problem we have is that for people who have gone to prison in california, for this cases for which they were sentenced, the only remedy is something called a certificate of rehabilitation, which is so far from expunge meant -- it is a gold star on your criminal record that you get to take around and show people. that would be my dream to work on that. the other option is pardon, and i think governor schwarzenegger has printed six, and not to my clients. >> nor mine. i

while there are on probation, they are ineligible for the clean slate remedies that exist under the law. i do not call it expunge because there's no true excitement, but the dismissals, they are not eligible for that which makes it hard to get jobs because most job applications ask a question about criminal history and convictions. they cannot lawfully answer no convictions. then, they are subject to extensive criminal background checks from commercial companies, and i know quarries will talk about the impact of that. they cannot work. the zero court fines and fees often, and they cannot pay his back, which means they can i get dismissal even when they are off probation. you can see the cycle that goes on here. people do not know that they are not eligible for applying for fire services after many of these. we have had clients pick up new misdemeanors for applying to own a firearm. sometimes, what was really happen is people would pay a great deal of money to get into some of the technical schools, truck driving schools. they want to become a certified businesses and, these low-wage job

new research says most remedies do not work. expectant mothers might have to wait it out. >> this woman, a blessing of children is also a curse. >> as much as i love having kids, i do not tolerate pregnancy. >> has three children and expects another one in five months. with each pregnancy, she has been sent from morning until night for the entire term. >> i navigated my pathways to people caught desks by keeping an eye on their trash cans. >> research shows of all the tried methods for relief not much works. the study looked at treatments ranging from ginger, vitamin b six, prescription medications, at you pressure, and acupuncture. an obstetrician says she first recommends patients adjust their diets. >> they have to modify their treatment for that. >> that their patients can try further remedies. >> pregnancy has such a severe in payment -- impairment that their activities are control. none of the symptoms are life threatening. they are sometimes embarrassing. >> the study revealed not only did most remedies have limited impac

commissioner buell: it is the opinion of the chair that the clarifications and remedies don't change the basic terms of the contract. >> as far as the highlights of the agreement, i have set the initial terms. the commencement date is october 1. it coincides with the expiration of the masters tournament agreement for the pga tour. this was collectively between us, making the determination date. the extension term, if any, the parties have the right to request the extension. the period will coincide with the masters tournament agreement. it may supersede the initial one. with most of our large extension requests, this will be 180 days of hand written notice. the commission certainly has the right to approve this, and we have the right to negotiate any and all terms. the pga tour golf course properties is not to arjuna's and management fee. currently, we save $192,000. we will continue to do reimbursable expenses, which means we receive 100% of the revenue, all the revenue from the restaurant, all of the revenue from the pro shop. in this case, 15% of all golf instruction. we have work

and there is a leap -- remediation fee, dedicated to the metal. this will go into the fund for all the things that we can do to help that metal, specifically. the park patrol may remain the same at 1950. this is because there is some discussion about having the part do more and the police to a little bit less. and at their request, the date of the cars were moved to 1980 and older, as opposed to 1972. younger people kind of -- they want to reach out to the younger people and they had vehicles that are not as old. in the event of rainfall or wet weather, the department, in its sole discretion, this may -- will have to close this if the ground has been rained on. if there is bad weather, they have the right to cancel this on that day. this is for three business days after the event, and the remaining proceeds will be donated to charity. there will be no food sales except department-permanent vendors, similar to last year. and the department will carefully assessed the impact of this event, with the organizers after this. and we believe that with the

what are second remedies? >> no, i don't think that that is exactly the way that i said. >> you tell me. forget -- you tell me. >> okay. we were discussing once again in a context of the second amendment, we were having a discussion about the founding fathers and why they had put the second amendment into the bill of rights. you know, our founding fathers, they put that second amendment in there for a good reason and that was for the people, to protect themselves against a tyrannical government. in fact, you know, thomas jefferson said it was good for a country to have a revolution every 20 year, i hope that is not where we are going but if this congress keeps going the way it is, people are really looking toward those second amendment remedies saying, my goodness what can we do to turn this country around. and i'll tell you, the first thing they need do is take harry reid out. >> you know, jon, what do her supporter says when they hear these denials of something that's right there in front of them? >> i don't

so that means we'll have to find a remedy, probably ledge slatively and work with the city attorney and police department, because the police are empowered to enforce these, as you know. considering the priorities for them, we would be better-suited to do that, but wu must be given the authority to and we don't have that right now. i can continue, or we can talk about that. appointments today at about 2:20, commissioner newlin was finally appointed by the board of supervisors, the full board. his term is -- i guess started july 1 of this year, so expires july 1 of 2014. his seat is number seven, and i'm going to try to just identify these over and over with numbers, since your names rotate, as you know. commissioner alan's seat, which is seat number two, expired as of july 1. he's in a 60-day holdover. so he will be out of that seat at the end of august or our august 24 meeting. the entertainment commission position is still being considered by the rules committee. recess started basically after 5:00 today with the board of supervisors. it's a four-week recess. so we will be probably co

they are totally worth it. >> some remedies made things worse. >> i guess you'll just have to wait it>> there is lots more still to come. still ahead, we will have the latest on our breaking news, a police pursuit spanning the south east into a hail of gunfire. a start execution in the commonwealth. it is the first time in a century of virginia put a woman to death. . -- elmo. a sesame street scandal. -- elmo. a sesame street scandal.

if the prosecutor has prosecuted selectively, there is a remedy for that. if the investigation has been based upon evidence, there is a remedy for that. you cannot be tried by a discriminatory jury. once convicted, it is not exactly like another case, but it is bumping up against the notion that you are trying to say that at the end of the day, without having achieved the remedy, that a conviction should not have been -- should not stand. >>it is bordering on a peculiar notion. >> what we are arguing is the violation of the section 2 rights. >> if this were upheld and the final determination was that the entire criminal justice system in washington is discriminatory, why would that not be a launchpad for collateral attacks? if you're convicted by a system that is racially discriminatory , as a judge pointed out boston led >>-- >> the effect of racial discrimination in the criminal justice system denies the right to vote to minorities. >> felon disenfranchisement laws are fine, so long as the state prosecutes, convicts more whites and more people of other ra

takes for us to try to begin the school year with enough textbooks for every student and then to remedyany insufficiencies we discover after school starts. we are here to report that all students do not have instructional materials in the core curriculum areas of reading, language arts, mathematics, history, social science, and science. as you can see in the report, we have insufficiencies at three elementary and 12 high schools in core areas. these insufficiencies' are noted in the -- insufficiencies are noted in the table on pages 12 and 13. those are due to late requests, late responses from sites as to whether they had remedy their insufficiencies, and to the fact that there are some materials that are out of print and were unavailable for purchase when this report was sent to the board. it is important to note that the district does not consider sufficiency a one time occurrence. it requires continuous attention throughout the year by central offices and sites, and it remains a high priority year round. in addition to the requirement to report on the sufficiency of instructional ma

this is the sort of thing we do not grant variance for and allow civil remedies to be pursued. if i can make comments about potential violation for having a two-unit home, there may be criteria of whether they are bathrooms or kitchens, but just looking at the house from the exterior only you can tell there are two units on this place, whether it is the doors or the to mail slots that were installed post the construction. i think it clearly indicates this is a two-unit house, especially with the two satellite dishes. most of the time, those are multi-unit apartment complexes. if you want to have tvs that control more than one channel, this solution is separate receivers. you do not have to satellite receivers unless you have separate billing accounts. that is the only situation in which you have multiple satellite dishes. thank you. commissioner hwang: i have a question of you or your client. with respect to the photographs, could you help me out? going to the question that commissioner fung asked of the pbi, with respect to the existing footprint, i looked at attachment e. can

this congress keeps going the way it is people are really looking toward those second amendment remedies, saying, my goodness what can we do to turn this country around? and i will tell you can the first thing we need to do is take harry reid out. >> i like the civil rights act in the sense that it ended discrimination in all public dough mains and i'm all in favor of that. . >> but? >> you had to ask me the but? i don't like the idea of telling private business owners. i abhor racism. i think it is a bad business decision to ever exclude anybody from your restaurant, but at the same time, i do believe in private ownership. >> you know, mark mckinnon, it sounds like we are listening to the cro-magnon party. they believe it should be used against men and women if you don't like the way they voted, so, what do you make of your political party and candidates tea spraerpartiers have shoved forward? >> i think problematic in the sense we are sending a very narrow message to folks in middle america who see a much different kind of future, not only for the republican party but for america in ge

be a major one, but there are certain things that you can do, and i think one of them is to try to remedy the situation of jose morales. it is just the tip of the icebergs, but it is a festering tip, and it should be resolved. thank you. commissioner murphy: thank you. next speaker. i see none. >> item 5, discussion and possible action regarding and what it is amending the san francisco building code by adding section 105a.3.10 to require that an agenda and packet of materials for each matter to be decided by the access of appeals commission shall be sent to the mayor's office of disability at the same time and in the same manner as they are sent to the commission member. >> i do not see anyone here from the supervisor's office, so i will summarize what had been at thecac -- at tehe cac meeting. it was determined by the code advisory commission that we should amend the proposal to only include those items which the mayor's office on disability has input into, such as publicly funded buildings or any other buildings that they would have control over. otherwise, the plan check duty for disa

to make matters worse, these parasites have evolved now, and old remedies are often ineffective.n case of an outbreak, what are you going to do? in an encore presentation here, jeremy hubbard finds out. >> reporter: welcome to one of the most expensive children's hair salons in cheek west los angeles. the typical bill, about 300 bucks. a deep tab that lordes doesn't bristle at paying. >> reporter: buzz she understand this? >> no, she thinks she has buggies in her hair. >> reporter: she's not entirely grossed out? >> no, she doesn't get it yet. >> reporter: the traumatized mom brought her daughter here after the school called a few minutes ago, saying gab yell is infested with lice. >> i called her dad and he was like, oh, my god, how did that happen? >> reporter: she is now in the hands of professional it in-pickers. they're picking hundreds of it ins and thousands of eggs from the heads of itchy children. fighting on the front lines of an unrelenting affliction now being called super-lice. >> they call it super-lice because it's kind of like antibiotics to humans. when a product

easier to correct on the remedy?idered in their totality, no single senate factor was foundered. the senate proceeded to count them against the pertinent context of the illusions as almost all of them look to the effectiveness of both cast by racial minorities. >> you have about three minutes left. did you want to say? >> i wanted to reserve five minutes. >> alright, we will hear from the state now. >> may it please the court, i would like to begin with the question of whether the voting rights act applies the felons, and we believe strongly that it does not, of the same conclusion reached by the first, second, and 11th court of appeals. in the first instance, the plain language of the voting rights act makes it clear that it does not apply to felony disenfranchisement. focusing on the language in section two a, a case involving the election of judges, one must read 2 a and 2b together, and when you do you see how to apply them, referring to the political process that is equally open and referring to the opportunity

it could be remedied by altering the orbit of the earth and correcting it. >> yes. >> aligning it. >> yes, by using mars commet. not something we can do with today's technology but we can -- >> let's hear it. maybe this is where you want your next grant from nasa. [laughter] this could be done, that is aligning the orbits so that it spins differently and therefore i guess has a -- talking about a linear direction to it? >> actually, the proposal is -- >> let me read it. this could be done by altering the orbit of a large commet so that on its rare passages through the inner solar system, it passes repeatedly close to both the earth and jupiter and to do this, would require perturbing the commet's orbit using large rockets. it would of course be crucial to prevent this commet from crashing into the earth during these maneuvers. meanwhile, astronomical catastrophes like the one that decide the dinosaurs 65 million years ago can be a burden in the futureure by changing the orbits of astroids and comets. these tasks would require improvements in our astronomical and rocketry capabilities

reading recovery, special ed costs anywhere from 18 to 40,000 dollars per student, over to try and remediate those -- those needs that were not med by -- met by reading recovery. all of these are more expensive. this is one of the reasons that the school is successful and one of our vetting processes for finding stune -- students who actually truly need special needs -- support -- students that are not successful in their exit from reading recovery are often identified as having special education needs in the school. our school exceeds the national average with its reading recovery program. it is a a bilingual program. pannish and english. it is meeting equity. one of the major goals of the district. and -- during my spen your here, eight years in the -- my tenure here, not a single exit student from reading recovery has become a special education student. this is a powerful message and it is -- it goes -- it will save the district approximately $100,000. if we fund this. now. [applause] good evening. my name is paul la, i'm a -- a mother of a second grade student that attends this school. t

not know the laws and what protections are a fortune in the realm of employment law but also what remedies are available in the realm of reentry/criminal law. >> thank you very much. we have a few questions from the audience. when people lose their jobs, they are tonight and of limit benefits. this is to meet stiff and denies a safety net for those re- entering. is this something that should be changed? >> years ago there were situations that you could benefit from unemployment benefits. people need help and income to get by. that is not unprecedented and there are really good arguments for doing that. it is a big list if you are calling it unemployment benefit. i would call this income support and think along those lines. >> many people have criminal backgrounds which are dismissed. mr. anyway to see employers -- is anyway to determine dismissed employers? >> it is the state criminal records if you are applying for some job that is in the state. we're not supposed to discuss any arrest unless it is open. if there is a problem there, that is a legal issue. this is the lot in that area. >>

didn't lee harvey oswald have a second amendment remedy? >> second amendment remedy sounds like a sparanos euphemism there. but my attitude is let's elect some crazy people because, we've tried it with sane people and it really didn't work. and so, you know, what's the alternative? >> well, i want to know the alternative. because i like -- one night tony snowe and i laughed for three hours when you were doing parliament of horrors. i think it was a republican retreat i covered. >> it was. >> and it was great fun. but i want to ask you, you've gone up to new hampshire, that's where people go when they're tired of taxichussetts. is it possible to get away from the big city and complexities and go off and live in new hampshire. does it work? you're there. >> no, it doesn't work. you know, the irs guys comes after you. he finds you. you can't get so far off the grid that the irs can't track you down. so no, it really doesn't work. you know, the thing -- i would love to be apolitical. i've been involved with politics almost as long as you have,

we believe the appropriate remedy in a case like this, where it is a large building, they were awarepermit requirement was to try to get their contractor is clear there is a totally in order. i don't have some of the documents related to the complaint, but it was related to thank you very much. commissioner garcia: do we know if this contractor in the past hasri-t >> i do not know that. i looked up the license of the 3sec licensed contractor who they said thc3>ñ hired to do the wor. it is a =plus home remodelers. they have a contractor's license. i don't know if we have had past complaints. vice president goh: it seems to come up a lot where contractors say we don't need a permit for this or that, and how do people know. here we are penalizing the person when, i agree, it makes sense to penalize the contractor, but how we go about doing that? >> i have to say based on my recent conversations with the yuens that they knew there was a permit required and they told the contractor to get all the necessary permits and so on, and they did not receive them from the contractor. how people kn

this comes in part of my teaching another subject which is remedies. now, there's a very strong ideal in remedies law which is that the wrongdoer, the person that causes the harm has to fix the harm. that's our ideal of justice. and it's an important one. but remedies also recognizes that that ideal cannot always be realized. to make a long story short, i think the situation in black america today is that the wrongdoer cannot fix what's broken and here i am talking about white society, the rest of us, those of us what have undeniably harmed black america through discrimination, persecution, slavery and the like. no, i think we're at the point where only the victim can cure himself. i have something in my book called "the parblee of a pedestrian" where i try to illustrate this insight. very briefly, a pedestrian is run over by a truck driver. he injuries his spine. he has to go to a rehab center and the truck driver and his company spay for his stay at the rehab center which is good enough. and the therapist says to the pedestrian, unless you make a hug

. >> this year was probably the best in terms of remediation of the grass and documentation, and moving forward, we are getting better with chronicling the damage and repair of this event. >> is there any public comment? please come forward. >> yes, things are better. it would be even better if we did not have a festival at all. moving the food booth out would be a big help. we could keep that in mind for next year. >> ♪ i just hope your festival turned out to write -- right ♪ ♪ everybody is dancing in the moonlight ♪ ♪ dancing in the north beach moonlight and i hope it turns out right ♪ ♪ they keep things alive, and they are going to be dancing in the moonlight ♪ >> prior to the festival taking place, we were looking at who we would select for the festival. we figured we would have someone respected in the city. we looked at the comments of what did take place in the park and the surrounding areas. we were concerned about the impact for the areas. there were several measures we have taken to see what is it we can do to reduce the impact. we found a pretty good solution, but we could do
