there soundproofing. they have committed to a time line that was presented to finish that were and also have a second phase so that it wasn't satisfactory holding the sound in. i am in constant contact with the neighbors. we were able to have a weekend where i got one issues saturday night, they called the venue and it was immediately taken care of. that is a situation where we see when the neighbors in the area work well together, there is some kind of open dialogue that results in positive results for both everyone in the neighborhood and in the venue. moving down the list, you can see -- >> let me interrupt at this point. i would like to talk a little bit about sloan. the glass company. this is not the same address as the location of the permanent, and their entertainment permit. correct? >> not really. >> i sent a question of a couple weeks ago that they have not heard back yet. isn't it my understanding that when you expand into a new location and a different address, don't they have to have an amend

and i applaud you for taking the expense to do all the soundproofing and the music improvements to make it a very livable space and you make a great point. when someone goes to a bar you still want to be able to talk to other people and when you have the music too loud and it's usually restaurants that don't have a deejay the music is superloud and you always have to tell them to turn it down several times. i think it's really impressive that your support, looking at the signatures is really right there in the neighborhoods, you live in the neighborhood, there's been no complaints, the property owner likes you. and i understand that from staff, the reason the restriction was put on is because you're in an r district but i'm going to move to approve and have it until 2:00 a.m. >> second. >> commissioner big ell -- commissioner miguel? commissioner miguel: yes, just one comment even though i'm supporting this. i wish more people in the entertainment industry, the bar industry, if they're going into a new location, would actually find out what is permitted there. i know i'm saying this aft

room and there i mean i should say it's a soundproof where prisoners have described as the tomb and they're confined there for twenty two and a half hours a day and whenever they leave their cells they have to be handcuffed in cavity search this is nothing less than torture to convey in human beings under these circumstances and i think there's absolutely no justification for it at all well the thing is that california prison system will try to tell you that they place people in isolation that are only the most dangerous of criminals and they do this in order to break up the gang violence within california prisons as well but has any of that actually stopped is it gang violence inside prisons worse than it ever has been. well you know i don't exactly and i don't want to speak to the claims that the prison authorities have made but what i will say is this there's absolutely no justification for confining any human being in the kind of circumstances that i've described not only the cells that i've described where they're confined for twenty two and a half hours a day but oftentimes th

are they soundproof? >> in my prior life i happen to be a travel writer.you don't want to hear people senatoring, go to a pre war hotel. the pre war buildings were built solid and thick. after the war they learned to make them cheap. i go to a hotel in the 20s jure or take -- >> or take earplugs. she lives in the city and sleeps with earplugs in. >> the elevators were in 1865 and i know that for a fact. >> are you like, have i to walk up there? >> something bill actually did. >> elevator museum people. google that. >> time for another break. check out new "red eye" pod cast. go to fox news radio .com and then click on "red eye." tonight we talked about music and stuff. s . >>> you know what i am going to tell you about? a new show i am hosting this weekend. it is called "you couldn't stopwatching." watch. >> the chases. the crashes. >> she is on the run. the just plain bizarre. >> as you could see, it is a dramatic situation. >> unscripted. out of control. broadcast live. you can't stopwatching. >> everybody is going, is that real? yes, it is real. there i

they say the building should be adequately soundproofed and insulated for noise, so the noise should stay inside. sfpd also has a list of conditions that we need to go over, but i will let the applicant speak. >> good evening, commissioners. i am marsha garland. the applicants are a brother and sister in law who are shy about using their english, so i am going to speak for them. sunny lin chow and her brother in law. this building is a very famous site, which i am sure most of you will remember. it was the crowbar recently, and before that mason street west. in between there was a lot of clubs. they only building and have been in touch with everybody upstairs -- own at the building and have been in touch with everybody upstairs. they have the conditional use permit court authorized use of the ground floor. one-third of the space will be a cafe and the rest will be dedicated to a billiard room. the billiard part of this center has been carefully thought through and thought out. we know there are problems on broadway. we have advised them to move forward with billiard academy that will

and to performance venues, below residences -- these buildings are not built with appropriate soundproofing. we do not have controls. i think there are easy ways to address that issue. it would be wonderful if we actually took the time to discuss the issue with the entertainment commission, with the police enforcement folks on noise, who have made it clear they cannot respond within a half-hour or an hour. maybe two hours if we are lucky. and when do people call? 9:30, 10:00. when do they show up? 12:00. guess what? they start for -- to stop performing it 10:00. we would really like to work with appropriate parties to craft improvements so controls are in place so the neighbors are not worried about it. thank you. supervisor mirkarimi: thank you, sir. next speaker, please. >> good afternoon. i am the president of the california music and culture association. we enthusiastically welcome and applaud this legislation. i think this will create a number of opportunities for musicians and artists to find other avenues to continue their craft, to showcase their craft. i think this will also add an

in many cases it's soundproof you can't hear you know prisoner in an adjoining c.e.o. and also they are held under those conditions for twenty three hours a day and they're only let out every time they're let out of the cell they're subjected to a cavity search in their handcuff by guards so these are horrendous conditions i think is nothing short of torture and it's not consistent with international law i think a lot of people have even called it torture i know this sort of came to light a little bit with bradley manning the private first class accused of leaking a lot of information to the whistle blowing web site wiki leaks he was previously in solitary some really harsh conditions and so it was sort of in the discussion in the light for a little while do you see things changing much. i don't see them changing in that regard i think i'm very impressed with what these prisoners are doing because they're doing it a great great risk to their own health they've said that they don't want to die but they're prepared to die in order to address to have their have their grie

these rooms, which will debut in the uk, will offer soundproofing on walls, a sound-absorbing heaheaheadboard and white machine to drown out the snorer. no plans to bring those to the united states. you'll have to cross the pond to experience that. >>> let's turn things over to jeff ranieri. >> some good weather to maybe sleep in if you possibly have the next two days off. the fog is back, so are the cooler temperatures. let you know how long this lasts coming up in my complete forecast. >> reporter: i'm live at the 82nd major league all-star game. coming up in sports, we'll take you behind the scenes as gio gonzalez prepares for his first all-star game. what are the giants saying about their first-time arl-alst ti pitcher? we've got the details, next. you behind the scenes as gio >>> you've heard the expression that good things come in small packages. turns out, so do ideas. >> an oakland woman came up with the idea of ridiculously tiny letters. our photojournalist mike anderson introduces us to lee redmond, postmaster of the world's smallest post service. >> hi. i'm lee redmond and

they include soundproofing on walls and headboards as well as anti-snoring pillows and white noise machines. >> what's a snore patrol going do? are they going to knock on your door? >> wake you up. >> when i snore and somebody wakes me up i go -- sorry. then i go back to sleep and start snoring again. are they going to sleep with me? >> yes. they will sleep with you and roll you over. >> that brings us to our question of the day. what's your funniest hotel experience? send us an e-mail, tweet. >> that's just downright hilarious. >> we will read some of your comments later. i bet you this is going to be a very successful question of the day. people will have very funny hotel room experiences. >> coming up -- >> keep it clean. >> the tsa has a solution to eliminate the naked body scans at airports. >>> a brain of its own. the u.s. navy thinks it is what we need to fight terrorism at sea. >> the government of nepal is going to try to recalculate the height of everest. we know it is the tallest mountain in the entire world. china says i don't think you guys measured it right. we are going to te
