st. francis originally. that was a long time ago. i have forgotten some of my fifth grade catholic school learning. can you remind me about the original history of this? >> francis was the son of a wealthy merchant. when he was growing up, it was just the time when the merchant class was becoming part of that wealthy class. there was the nobility, clergy, and the peasants. some of the peasants were moving up in that area. francis came from a wealthy family. he had everything he wanted. he was kind of a playboy. you know, he had a reputation in the town, and was not always a good one i don't think. but, his dream was to go to the crusades. so he was on his way to join them, and he was in some battles and got knocked off of his horse, he was held prisoner for a year in peru show, which was down the road from is easy. and, he had some dreams and visions then. it was a very dark time for him. when he went home, his father was not happy with him. and, francis had somehow heard that call from the lord deep inside himself, and he realized th

st. francis. i had another view. off the planet was a broken from here to solve for the planet. but i born in brazil when i showed you pictures like this one. it's not to provoke a conflict of you know what is on the side my side of. this project exodus took him to rwanda and the horrors of the genocide there so god it was one of the 1st photographers whose images own little world to the scope of the tragedy. but ultimately what he witnessed there was too difficult for him to bear so he spent 8 years focusing on a new project. a kind of love like the planet. the resulting photos are strikingly beautiful sublime compositions of bodies might and movements. like with this photo of an elephant in the car full national park in zambia. in his latest project salgado has returned to his roots the amazon he says that 20 percent of its area has been destroyed in the past 50 years and the destruction continues so god who blames current brazilian president joe you're both so narrow their satisfaction for the dismiss he is allowed for what it destroyed before i asked now because the internat

st. francis, which is now a little further away. i think that would show that the city's partnership with our cpmc organization actually has benefited the residents of our city, which i think is the purpose of the d.a. those would be my requests. i might also add that it is a small one, but on the senior center that says that we are going to have an advisory board in the community, i'm hoping it is a mistaken comment that the community advisory board only meets once a year, because that wouldn't seem to be adequate input on the part of either the community or cpmc in terms of dialogue regarding the work of the senior center. aside from that, i will conclude my remarks. >> thank you. i would like to echo what the other commissioners have said, thinking you for your excellent presentations, and also to the public for your very insightful comments. i think, you know, my concern is that there are literal stipulations for the d.a. and then there are mandatory statistical reporting demands, but then there's this whole issue of how this tr
