instead of saying steiner, it could say steiner/alamo square prompting people to get ready to get off. >> brian emmic. >> my name is bill emmack, just wanted to voice my strong support for option 1 and my strong opposition for option 2. i have lived on hayes street at steiner for 11 years, i have been a san francisco resident for 21 years. i have seen the impact of the busses grow dramatically in recent years around the area. and so i'm here in support of my fellow citizens. i'm also a former tour bus driver, i've driven tours and been restricted from other areas in the city and i would like to see that same consideration xeplded -- extended to my own neighborhood which has been impacted. i am a bicyclist and also a commercial driver now. i understand the need for drivers in the city and for tourists to see the area but i think there are many options besides the large tour busses. once again i would like to express my strong preference for option 1. >> good afternoon. >> good afternoon, commissioners and mr. ruskin, my name is lisa zoner and i am the president of the alamo square neig

street or steiner street for a bus driver making a turn is a very big deal. any time those busses are making a turn in those neighborhoods you should think of that as approximately the same thing as an aircraft carrier coming through the golden gate bridge and that's about how it feels to do one of those, that's about the kind of attention it draws on the neighborhood. i really think that you could tell people there are better painted ladies on golden gate or any number of thousands of places in san francisco. thank you. >> anyone else care to address the board on this issue? seeing none, the public hearing is closed. members of the board, what's your pleasure. first i'd like to say i found this by and large a very thoughtful issue this afternoon. i'd like to thank jerry for the work he did, the outreach that went into it, it's a difficult issue but i appreciate the thoughtfulness i heard this afternoon. is there a motion? >> first question, is the staff, jerry, is the staff recommendation for option 1 or option 2? it's for option 1, okay, i'm sorry, tom just

our guest host is david steiner, the ceo of waste management.t of the reason that you two are here is because of a partnership between you. david, you work with tom and you have a lot of the recycled products that they use. >> absolutely. what tom has done is phenomenal at kimberly-clark but when you look at the news from yesterday, what he's done for shareholders is more remarkable. >> tom, let's talk about what you do with those recycled products. you use those recycled products in terms of using tissue and paper products? >> absolutely right. we use recycled fiber. it makes up 80% of our professional products and they've got an active sustainability program that we're driving now. at the same time i was down in houston talking to david a couple of weeks ago and we're looking to reduce the waste at our manufacturing facility. 80% of our manufacturing facilities are landfill-free and it's coming up with creative ideas and alternative uses from our production processes. >> that's part of the reason why wall street has been so impressive. you've

. >> if memory serves me right the area between steiner and fillmore has commercial but steiner to pierce it's residential except for the gas station. >> yes that's correct. >> and the final thing talked about the easement being gone but it appears to be there be between the buildings. >> i believe it's still there and the corridor on the building and easements are seen as private so the department doesn't regulate the easements. >> that is a matter to be decided -- >> between private parties. >> okay. based upon your comments i don't see any basis for taking dr and i'm going to move to not take dr and approve the project. >> second. >> on that motion to not take dr and take the project as proposed. commissioner antonini. >> aye. >> commissioner moore. >> aye. >> commissioner borden. >> aye. >> commissioner hillis. >> aye. >> commissioner sugaya. >> aye. >> commission president fong. >> aye. >> that passes unanimously. and that places you for item 15 2013.0959d at 1040 broderick street and discretionary review. >> good evening. mr. cabreros and the project is located at 1040 broderick str

otherwise there would probably be muni lines on scott street or steiner street. let's let the muni busses service the area. >> good afternoon, mr. geist >> good afternoon, my name is todd geist, i've worked in the tour industry for 11 year sz as a tour director. i could have worked anywhere in the country but i chose to move here for the same reason many do, the culture, the architecture, the food, these are the same reasons people want to visit us, this makes us a world-class city and that's one of the curses. that's also a blessing because all those folks are getting into hotels and restaurants and they are spending money to stay here. they make references and those people spend money. i've worked with 3 different tour busses, we never have audible commentary, we would go around the a entire square and we went down hayes street. my 3 tour companies that i've worked for in the next year alone will bring 163 tours, 450,000 passengers who are all spending money in this city. they don't have time to get on local busses and get out here. i want to show them the most

instead of going on steiner street, the line in red is on fillmore street. in february of 2013 we established a tour bus loading zone as a 6-month trial on fell street just west of divisadero street. the busses west on fell street started using that on their stop so people could get off, walk up to alamo square and walk back and catch a later bus. this is a picture on fell street at divisadero street. it hasn't worked perfectly, the busses do not always pull over to the curb. when that happens they are blocking the right-hand lane of fell street, delaying traffic, causing people to honk their horns. the zone is not long enough to accommodate more than two busses so the photo at the right you see 3 busses stopped,

you have folks like rabbi steiner, and a grass roots level, folks ton ground and when movement.t will be a shift in the paradigm of how people, how jews and muslims view each other. and part of it is getting beyond the rhetoric. in the media and public. everything is defined by the mid east conflict. >> building trust open things we have in common, right? >> if we can build trust on the local level, if we can build a food pantry in washington, d.c. or chicago, maybe we can have a conversation about allow to build trust, in the west bank or in ramalla. >> i have to chime in, antidefamation group called out your group as being one of the top 10 antiisrael groups in the area. two groups doing great works respectively, calling out the other one. how do you move forward? >> that's part of getting beyond the rhetoric. what that list was a, was feeding into the rhetoric. and the adl qualified their list by saying, they do work on civil rights on counterextremively counterterrorism, but in the middle east that's where we were put on the list. if we can focus on partnerships on the issue

on that same point you mentioned george steiner and prima lovie said berlin was one of the best novels. >> which novel? >> a loan in berlin or every man dies alone and i was wondering if either you or martin have opinions about moral integration about the moral or the other? >> i'm not entirely clear what the question is. >> that novel was considered to be part of immigration so more or less he stayed in germany even though his british publisher state and recounted what ordinary german life was like any did not say he was a hero but he was able to give voice to what germans experienced during the war. >> when was that published? >> was published in 2010 by penguin. it was published in 1947. it was the last book that he published after his death. he died before was published. >> i couldn't finish that novel. i got halfway through. he goes off on a huge red herring about the gestapo in all things like during the invasion of france he didn't come in until september 41. but the writing of that book was very courageous. have you seen the diary of a man in despair by friedrich racked? it's a

i go in, charlie steiner, the dodger raidydio announcer. center field. gates open. a golf cart.immy: that is great. your party right on the field in dodger stadium. >> my partner, partner, and oratv, carlos slim, richest man in the world, flew in. warren beatty, celebrities, dareic jetdari can't believe all this. >> jimmy: they allowed a derek jeter video tribute in dodger stadium i find that unacceptable. >> one from kobe bryant. >> jimmy: accept bum alable. >> dick cheney, a laugh riot. >> jimmy: a laugh. i did one for you? thank you. >> you did. it was wonderful. >> you forgot me on the list. >> it was because the whole thing was -- overwhelming. >> surreal. crazy. first i can't believe i am 80. i scan ncannot believe i am 80. >> jimmy: you make 80 seem -- >> my father died when he was 46. i had heart surgery, a heart attack when i was 53. my brother had heart surgery. in the genes. i have survived. i never thought. when i was a kid no one was 80. no one was 80. no one. who? soe social security was 65. you died at 66. a true story. i had an uncle, izzie. >> jimmy: i like you

it's become prisoner in two thousand i wouldn't do much to knock on steiner soldiers into streets and non dailies on afghan people in the streets and organize as police. aunt makers and not the army in the scene you've seen this progressive handover to the srt are the afghans in the security forces and control the situation or deny reports. it's a non flattering picture of them we saw. for example i can give you another example is to stuff can be seen again married to a bait and cars we acted on between builders and read on and on. past years. and not be obliged to hop between ghost clearly knows. next weekend sequel in acts. if not these top tier safer. this time interval. and in good health also. and i can the court only the inputs are really in her attempt with you seems to be in one after protesting fantastic which was exactly this. alright so that's in stark contrast with that which will lease on the report. peter called if your thoughts on that report in what was it a sneak peek of what the rest of afghanistan. will look like i once there is this the is a significant drawdown if

i mean, this was one of george steiner's great hobby horses, how is it only that an ss officer who could play schuman absolutely beautifully and read poems could the next day go to work and pull out people's fingernails. i don't think it's rarely all that mysterious. nor do i think that higher education makes us into more moral human beings. i really do think it is a question of -- well, as i said, i think of circumstances. i suppose if you think of more recent wars, then it's a real moral dilemma. because when you talk about the monopoly of force, saddam hussein certainly monopolized force in his state and in an extremely brutal manner. it was a state in which torture was widespread, this which people were gassed -- >> he came up through the torture. >> indeed, he did, he was a torturer. he monopolized it. one could argue there's one thing people fear more than a brutal dictatorship, and it's anarchy in which it's every man for himself and chaos and -- which we see to some extent where we see it in libya now. we see it to some extent this iraq and so on -- in iraq and so on which is not

this morning, we'll be joined by the ceo of insurance provider unum, waste management's ceo david steinerim falk and we'll cap off our ceo summit with fred smith from fedex. the more records from wall street as janet yellen says the central bank's current policies will continue. >> we expect to maintain a highly accommodative monetary policy for some time to come thereafter. and the message that we want to send is
