yes, that statistic. and how did you manifest the problem? were your parents aware of the difficulties that you might have been having? yes, i think my parents were very aware of the problem of me drinking, but one of the problems was that no one wanted to see what the root was of the problem of me drinking. everyone looked at me drinking and were saying, "well, that's why he's not doing that well in school." or, "that's why he's not feeling that great." but no one wanted to go to the x-factor and say, "this is why he is drinking; that is getting him to that point." and so when were you finally assessed? when did you start and when were you finally assessed? in 10th grade, when i was 16, that's when i had a very bad argument with my parents that led me to go see a therapist, which at that time, i didn't want to do. being a 16-year-old male student, i just felt as though i could keep all of my emotions on the inside. anything that i was going through i could drink it off. i could play sports and not worry about it. so i definitely wasn't in fa

the statistics are intense. six out of 10 moderate income and eight out of 10 below poverty are completely unrepresented in civil proceedings. consider the fact that in these cases, the stakes are life changing. eight out of 10 civil court are represented by themselves. in san francisco, 95% of child support cases were filed by individuals that were self represented. the number of eviction lawsuits filed by the san francisco housing authority has increased 400%. providing low-income litigants with council also helps relieve government. providing civil legal services has a positive economic impact by improving the efficiency of the courts, saving state and local government millions of dollars in costs in responding to effects of the evictions, homelessness, and destruction of family life. i would like us to consider an ordinance that would declare san francisco to be the first right to civil council city in the united states. this is a declaration that we need to move toward foua more fair and just system. again,

we are finally going to have truly computer-generated statistics, and we will keep the name comstat. we will for the first time ever in san francisco have truly computer-generated crime statistics in near real-time, and in the meantime, the comptroller's office has given a mechanism to us to put a band- aid on the process to make it better than it has been until we get to be searchable data warehouse. commissioner kingsley: well, it sounds terrific. are we ahead of the curb, or are we behind the curve -- are we ahead of the curve? >> we will be way ahead of the curve. >> sometimes it is good to start off from behind, because we can start from scratch, which is what we did, and is just unbelievable how we are moving forward when we languished literally for better than a decade or more trying to get to where we hopefully maybe by the end of the year. >> yes, the new system. one of the things that has is a google-type search ability. if a police officer enters something, a nickname, the description of a tattoo, and physical description, anywhere, and then later that same set of words is

statistics, in terms of the types of crimes svu addresses, elder abuse, financial crimes, and so on.t kind of carry over will the department have in terms of statistics kept to date, before the creation of this particular unit? and how svu is going to track those crimes going forward. >> presently, we have the number of years under our belt of statistics of cases, reports received, cases aside, cases investigated, and closure rates. looking at the way we do business now, in four months, we might have gone to -- our sex crime unit, closure may have gone up from 40% or 45% to 80%. because of the daily contact with the oic's to make sure things are being done, my hats are off to forensics. the dna lab, i know how busy they are. these cases where these creditors are actively on the prowl, they stepped up to the plate on twenty fourth street and helped us out. the sciencece

the margin of error included is a statistical tie. >> some disturbing statistics about voter registration in the country. a new survey finds 24 million motor registration records are inaccurate, out of date, or duplicate. that amounts to one in eight registrants. they found nearly 3 million people are registered in two or more states and nearly two million registered voters are dead. >> still to come, see how your trip to the mall paid off for retailers after the holiday spirit >> prices at the pump going way up again. we will see how much it is costing you to drive each month. >> cloudy skies and some passing showers. we will check the radar and see if they will fall on your valentine's day evening. ♪ ♪ [ male announcer ] for our families... our neighbors... and our communities... america's beverage companies have created a wide range of new choices. developing smaller portion sizes and more low- & no-calorie beverages... adding clear calorie labels so you know exactly what you're choosing... and in schools, replacing full-calorie soft dris with lower-calorie options. with more choices a

i gave you these statistics so i will not repeat them. but i will discuss with you the occ outreach activity. and adjudication of sustained complaints by the chief of police from january 1, 2012 through january 31. this month, the staff has participated in two outreach activities. two members staff the table at operation home was attacked and provided information to participants about the -- homeless connect and provided information to participants about the commission. students were completing their mediation training. they provided a volunteer mediators for the program at no cost to us. moving to adjudication of sustained complaints, the city charter provides for the occ to forward to the chief of police complaints in which it finds a sustainable allegations for the adjudication on the imposition of discipline. this only applies to cases where i indicate that the discipline to be imposed in my judgment would not exceed 10 days of suspension. discipline in excess of 10 days of suspension up to and including termination are adjudicated by

i am one of those statistics. it is my hope by sharing some of my story that it will resonate with you and perhaps _ the simple fact that we are all individuals who have choices to make. each of us can make a choice to stand up and join the growing chorus of demanding change in the world. today in san francisco, in beijing, we really need you. nelson mandela once said, we ask ourselves, who in my to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous. notice how you feel when i say that. actually, who are you not to be? you are a child of god. playing small does not serve the world. there is nothing in light about shrinking who you are so that other people will feel less insecure about you. as we let our light shine, we unconsciously give others the permission to let their own shined. my store help me find my own light and the bright myself from what was varied -- from what was buried beneath the pain and tragedy of my childhood. once i move through it and found my way to the other side, i began to reach out instead of

the three statistics are, $15 million, the amount that mitt romney spent basically vaporizing newt gingrichorida. and 51 million, the statistics you just claimed, raising that kind of dough in one year to defeat president obama. >> is it coincidence that the president just endorsed the idea of the constitutional amendment to overturn citizen's united? and it seemed like the white house really undersold that especially in light of the decision relative to the super pacs. >> but you have a bit of cognitive disconnect here. the president has spoken out against super pacs. he smacked the supreme court justices almost to their faces a few years ago. so this denonesation of the super pacs and joining them basically, is creating a bit of abrasiveness between his support supporter supporters. so it's a little bit of trying to have both neat either fences. i think he does believe this and it's not necessarily a coincidence but just awkward timing. >> with the premise that you should not bring a knife to a gun fight, this decision is there blowback inside the democratic party, in the base? or it is m

is that part of the statistics or part of that department of justice that the statistics are excluded? where they not mentioned as part of being violent crime and where is the number? specifically. secondly, i see no comparisons with san mateo county and i read the newspaper out there when i get up there. their crime has not been leveled off, in some parts is out. it -- is that something and jason because people are leaving? i saw some numbers like 12,000 a month. san mateo county pose a crime is not necessarily going down. last is this. i brought those magazines up from city college because i have been there as a student. i have completed their database program. by bringing in someone from oracle, you are getting about your head in this. you can get anything you want from database access out of the box for $495 that will do anything you want. for the police department. all programs are programmable from word, access, excel, explorer, pusher, and i know of no system connected with oracle that does not have an open- ended cost to it that gives crimes and even mr. alisyn understands 75%

and as fox continues to imply the president of the united states is cooking the unemployment statisticsder >>> remarkably the latest ruling on california's infamous prop-8 comes down to the actual word marriage. the federal appeals court ruling that the ban on same-sex marriages violates the constitution. voting 2-1 that a state could not revoke the rights of a majority group without a reason. on the significance of the wore marriage reinhardt went on to write: same-sex couples won't be able to marry in the state yet senior counsel for the alliance defense fund: fans and foes of marriage equality say they are ready to take the decision to the supreme court. that's not likely to happen until 2013 maybe the year after. other cases challenging the federal defensive marriage act are already making their way through lower courts and gay marriage acts are moving across other states. clarify the practicality did anything actually change today? >> nothing is different today than it was yesterday. for same-sex couples. they are still currentingly not able to marry in california. but this says it

but the statistics cited by mr. grossman and the doctor are very troubling in terms of the dismissals of all sunshine ordinance orders of determination. from the members of the public or watching the proceedings, they should be advised that the sunshine ordinance task force makes a determination when there is a violation of a request for public records or not being able to participate in public meetings. the sunshine ordinance then gives you the responsibility to review the orders of determination by the sunshine ordinance task force. the statistics by mr. grossman and dr. kerr -- at least in the past, it has been biased against individuals who have shown that their rights have been violated at either open meetings are public records, so my suggestion to you is that you put the matter of enforcement or the lack of enforcement of orders of determination back on your agenda. thank you. commissioner hur: think you for your comments. speaker, sir. proceed. >> well, i think the thing is i have been assaulted by some of t

i would like to share another statistic with the committee, because the other part of our outreach in addition to our minority populations was to our disabled veterans. and we have been able in the foreign service to increase by 350% the hiring of disabled veterans and among our specialists a whopping 4700% increase. so i would like to comment that the number of minorities including hispanics that are part of our fellowship programs, they are opportunities that provide graduate education opportunities and internships and other experience in the department has increased dramatically and i personally served as the mentor for our hispanic group which has been e reenergized under the leadership of their president. >> i appreciate that and i look forward to the employment figures. thank you very much. >> senator webb? >> thank you, mr. chairman. and ambassador, congratulations. i wish you well in the new assignment that you i know you'll be conif i wered for. you have a terrific wealth of experience in this region, i think you'll be valuable to our country. you go there. india is a long wa

the crime statistics bear that out. there have been only one call to that intersection since the incident -- since the jack in the box was closed. if we consider what is being proposed, how many security guards do we have to have to operate at that hour toeure that people can buy hamburgers and french fries? you're lkg two security guards possibly on weekends. wrg with this picture.hing it's the hour of operation. and that's really wha is at issue. the hour of operation between 2:00 and 4:00, i think there is consensus among many people who spoke and many people who have come forward that the hours of 2:00 and 4:00 seem to be the most problematic and they'd like to see, as supervisor mar suggested those hours remain closed. thank you. >> thank you. next speaker, please. anybody? >> hi, i'm a neighbor of jack in the box. myastebedroomwiow is just above their parking lot. since they havebeen closed between 2:00 and 6:00, i've had not been awakened at night like i usually am i haven't had trash on my step or jack in eboxat

bureau of labor statistics who are notoriously incorrect and false in their reporting to begin with the but here you have a situation of more quantitative easing which is more debt which means that the british economy will contract it's going to contract because you're adding more debt but they don't want to call it debt they call it. money they call it's equity where it's just more debt so it's a psychotic a suicide mission you know. this country needs you know what this world needs weaving me remake that movie charles bronson deathwish with a guy a vigilante who goes after bankers that would be a fantastic movie and i wouldn't put myself forward as a storing in that film and being the charles bronson character hollywood call me i'm going to do this film for scale oh i think it's coming out of the black hole that facts are g.v. after he has come up with the film just like that here's a little clip of you confronting timmy g. hankie p. we're going to going her thing there it is. you're your story. though so i agreed. to do many. yes ok that was charles bronson and a sergio leone western

and the one of the statistics that it's incomprehensible to me is the u.s. department of transportation. when the recession began had one individual whose salary was over $170,000. and now, 18 months later, 1,690 individuals making over $170,000. now, they all may be appropriately being compensated. however, i think that when the american people look at this and they know the tightening of the belts they have had to undergo and the conversations they've had around the kitchen table when they look at each other and say -- i don't know we're going to be able to send our son our daughter to college. i don't know how we can pay for the car payment. i don't know how we're going to be able to do that. so when they look to us around the table and it is incomprehensible to them that we just can't figure out how to pay for this out of another pot and this is one that clearly, there is room for improvement. i think it's important to ask the question -- what's happened in the past? kind of a distant past. 1933, franklin tell for revocation velt didn't ask for a pay fre

we're more than just the latest crime statistic. we're more than just the latest statistic on poverty. there's so much more going on in the african-american community, and i would hope that a network that's devoted to african-american issues will be able to show that. >> good or bad for the society that we're all ending up in our little worlds? >> i'm hoping that ultimately we won't be in our little worlds, that once we've had the opportunity to show what we are about, then we can all come together. but i think that, first of all, we need to educate each other, and until we do that, you know, the media's not going to give african-americans the broader attention that we deserve or any other minority group for that matter. i think it's about misunderstanding, it's about lack of knowing who we are. so, once we taught each other who we are, then perhaps we can come together as a nation, but right now we're still doing that, and that's why, you know, i think the obama campaign has been very important in sort of keeping that dialogue goin

according to our statistics, last year, more than 13 chinese enterprises had great success with the chineseo erect in this area. that is double of the year before. last year, it was also a remarkable milestone for the local asian community in san francisco. mayor lee was elected as the first chinese american mayor of san francisco. [applause] a round of applause, again. san francisco is well known for its cultural diversity, which makes this city so dynamic. we are very glad to see the chinese communities in san francisco have gotten along with other ethnic groups, taking part in the economic and social life of this city. they have made a great contribution. the have also made contributions to the friendship between china and the united states. on this occasion, i would like to extend my warm congratulations to the great people of san francisco. i appreciate what you have achieved in the past year. i believe that under the ministry of the dragon mayor, edwin lee, and the support of the first chinese american president of the board of supervisors, mr. david chiu, san francisco will maintain
