the wooden exterior stairs, the older ones, you need to keep them painted and sealed. you can't let the water be seeping in. the south side where you hit the sun, that's what breaks down the caulking and the sealant paint. you need to pay particular attention and you may only be able to paint your house every five, six, seven years. the stare assembly, every two years. >> if you do that, it will be -- if we look at a house like this, it could be an even more significant problem where everything is hidden behind a thin coat of stucco. and there could be wood in there as well. >> you may find if you take the stucco off, you'll find the old wood stair and they just said we don't want the -- because this is a beautiful victorian that have been butchered by stuccoing it. i've taken it off one of my houses and you'll find juned 'neath the front stairs, the old hand rail and they just covered it and stuccoed-over-over it and say now it looks like a modernized building. >> yeah. >> now you hire people to take the stuff off and put the gingerbread back on. >> could you talk abo

it is a very simple set of stairs. after the filing procedure, the department gave their signature, and then we went to the third department, city planning. city planning is hesitating approving because they were questioning whether the original stairs were built with a permit. the location of the stairs in a question is in the required briard. they asked me to provide proof that the stairs were made with a permit. the process stopped there. i was requested to provide proof. when i came back to talk to my client, he said he remembered that the stairs were built with permits. that fact was on the report. so we came back to order the report on july 10. according to my client's recollection, 15 days until this. i have not received anything. they have up until the end of the month, the last day of the 15 working days. i assume if i have the report, proof that the stairs were originally built with a permit, i should be able to get the compliance permit within the same day because it is usually over the counter. i do not kno

in a smoke filled stair tower.nd you get into the stairway, the doors close which themselves. that's -- by themselves. that's why we don't let people put door stops. can't use door stops. the door closes and the stairway is pressurized. so rather than sucking any smoke in it's actually pushing smoke out of the stairway. >> in this building, the stairs go out past the plaza and down one more level down and then exit out around the perimeter on exit stairs, over on the corner of kearny and pine you'll see the exit stairs. so the exiting of the design of this building was well thought out. >> and an exit is something that takes you to the street. it just doesn't take you to the lobby. an exit has to get you to the public right-of-way. right sergeant? do we have any questions about building structure of a steel-framed blt? so the question is shouldn't all the fire protection ratings be uniform? >> the general concept is, you want to protect at a higher level, critical elements. the critical element is the column. >> ho

the prior stairs were not in closed. the stairs are now in closed and rated. the egress did not comply. if you grant the variance, it will be totally to code. commissioner moore: thank you for explaining that. could you please explain to the public as well as the commission that none of those are part of what we are approving today? we are only looking at the cu. this is an unusual case. never in six years has the project come packaged with the way it has. to answer that question, would you please explain the process and how these things normally come together? scott sanchez: what is before the planning commission today is the request on the conditional authorization, for the formula used. the second item i will be considering is the rear your variance, with the addition of the stairs and the buccaneers, which provide open space for the units. this is unique, because they are doing multiple things here. they are rebuilding the unit. there were configuring some of these units. we have divided the building permits to those that were interior. i believe the permi

how can they not stair. arms and legs, pieces of torso scattered, the smell of new death and feared hair. they must be asking the same question. a person who blows themselves up must believe in something. must believe in something or else not. hopelessness degreesed in apnigzs, righteousness disguised in a tuxedo of death much the children don't understand. i being of the dead dying man the bleeding bystanders who left to buy cheese or tobacco. in car bombs suicide bombs and we keep talking as though this will end like the final judgment of that black man who looks white and sleeps with boys but doesn't touch them. after the bleeding the children's shoes will be forever stained in the crimson color of death. who will set the doves free then. >> the next is sdaefrt on the horizon. i'm sure many of you have seen or heard regularly in the news. my father came from iran so every time i see those headlines and get an article in my e mail i have this moment of panic thinking about my family members in iran who mig

at the top of the stairs was always there ran perpendicular to the stairs. there was still no signs of the suspect or family members. officers made the decision they would have to clear the upstairs room by room. officer i. singh and hernandez went to the right. -- esein. as officer carrasco and heppler went left and saw a body lying prone at the end of the hallway. they saw the body was drenched in blood, and the victim was still breathing. based on his prior experience as a paramedic, officer carrasco knew they needed to be rescued immediately if there was to be any chance of the person surviving. officer carrasco told heppler i will pull her out. with complete disregard for his own safety, he ground the bleeding person by the feet and began to drag her to safety. it was later determined that the stick them was the suspect 73- year-old mother who had been stabbed through the neck. he pulled the woman passed officer heppler and a door opens at the end of the hallway. it was later determined to be the suspect's sister and ran hysterically across the hallway.

that might be a place where you are only having stairs and a corridor. once you get to the rear of the building, then you can access your other -- >> the plans are pretty accurate in terms of describing that situation. there is a corridor that goes up there. it is logical to have the door there. the reception space is gone. keep in mind that this is a bifurcated plan. you're getting office spaces. it is not one big open space. >> i interest and that it might end up being a passage space. >> the building wall, you have to have the -- to get out of the building. that has to be at least 3 feet. it is 3 feet plus the wall. and it ends up being 3 feet, 3 inches. >> the city something that would have to be up to code. permit it would have to come up with. they would have to come back to us if there was a problem with code. >> the stairs are not workable. this would be forced into the front of the building. >> i don't think that is a concern. >> thank you. >> it has to be 16 or more. that is what you're dealing with. that is at 15 feet. >> i kind of feel that t

so he's very carefully working his way down these stairs. you do see someone in front of him. finally he makes it to that last step and -- oh! >> slip and fall. >> so character appropriate. >> oh, no. >> he gets down the whole flight of stairs and he falls there? >> does anybody see the "wet floor" sign? >> does this show off how much of a jerk i am that i'm disappointed he didn't fall down of stairs? that he only bit it on one step? >> are you sure he's not in character here? are you sure he didn't do it on purpose? >> he's like, okay, here's my opportunity. last step. >> look at the look on his face. he is mr. bump. he has accidents and he just had an accident. what do you want him to look like? he's in pain. his bum hurts. >> oh, my goodness. that's pretty funny. >> i have to just kind of -- you know, bounce off of him. >> i'd be tempted to get him back up on his feet and push him back. >> that is classic. >> finally they're able to get him on his knees, then on his feet. >> it looks like he's got sea legs or something. >> why didn't he use the elevator? >> that wraps it up

saddy staired at her feet. i saw this fancy woman once madison said. he put his arm around her sister and guided her along the path. she took all the feeling from a man's toes. she gave him a foot rub. when she got to the toes she put them in her mouth. saddy squinted at her brother. it's true. one by one she sucked them and they were dirty. but when she was done you know what? the man started hollering he says, i cannot feel my toes. he jumps up and waddels like a turkey. he didn't know he didn't have any toes anymore. madison grinned the woman was a witch much the fields were soft to the touch. all the way home madison told his sister about the witches and the world. when the saudi came to view he stopped talking the door was open the inside shadowy. there was no one in sight but he could hear his sister in law kth rin talking to blue flies. madison tucked his chin as if against the weather. something about the air felt dense. something felt like pushing against water on a flooded plain. well, a lot happens between now and the next morning i will sum

he did actually fall down the stairs, even the authorities are saying that was plausible. if i'm her defense attorney, i'm going to say he fell down the stairs, and maybe there was a coffee cup at the bottom of the stares that smashed in his head and he somehow managed to get up in the bed because she was out all daying she was refereeing a dennis match and she found him in the bed. she has a good defense. there is no eyewitness. she has an alibi. >>randy: i am thinking the great kazoo had something to do with this. by the way, let this be a lesson to the viewers. this is why you don't speak to law enforcement. to go to law enforcement and say you know what happened, my husband had a heart attack, he fell down the stairs. she found him in the bed which means after his heart attack and falling down the stairs where he cut his head, he managed to get back up, walk back up the steps and get into bed where he was found the that is ludicrous. by the way --. >>shepard: well, don't bring "ludi" into this. >>randy: even ludi would say this is ludicrous. i was involved in a well-kn

we did hear a few weeks ago from the tenant of stairs, the business sense name -- who from the tenant upstairs. we talk with them, and the owner hired a sound consultant to go in and do sound tests, and we have tried to assure the tenants of stairs it is pretty much oldies and goodies and soft jazz and dixieland. there will be a house band, and the application has met all of the requirements. the application is still not in its entirety. the building is sound. goothey already were handling security on powell street, so they are familiar with how it is done. most people are supportive or remained neutral. the tenant of stairs was also concerned about garbage and smoking, and all of those are covered in the lease. the new tenant will abide by those conditions. this is the founder and owner of the gold dust lounge. >> i want to thank you. i am sorry, but i was not prepared. we have to view your permit. >> i will be 65 this year. do you offer it senior discounts? if not, i would like you to consider that. >> jim, who you want to add anything? >> my name is jim, and we have worked with the
