sin that is a mixture of african and european allen accessory again, i'd like to thank all for the respondents they did a fantastic job and delighted in pilot program had that kind of outreach and thank you to the ceo's with that, i'd like to talk about the elevation process what we went through to select the most qualified respondent and that was compromises of a selection committee panel that was represented by andrea barker and glen white two respected consultant and holly the neighborhood program manager with the mayor's office of housing office of economic workforce development and ceo the hispanic chamber of commerce and myself and bob davis so to go through the proposals the port and a selection panel engaged in a comprehensive process in the packet of information we have the score sheet and the summer results so just to give the audience just a quick flavor of what some of the criteria were the swaeths evaluation was the creativity of the business plan and the history of the respondent and profit and

as it goes, if the respondent is looking for more time. understand what's driving all of our schedules is opening up the station concurrent with the park by 2017. >> sorry. it took years and lots of presentations and one on meetings with philanthropist that took time to get to the hotel. if you already have folks in line and these conversations have happened i think this works. i think it will be tough to get a major done or in this timeframe if there hasn't been interest committed. the second set of feedback that i have is actually a lot of our residents have a lot of concerns around advertising. a very san francisco issue. i wonder if you reached out to sf beautiful and residents to get feedback on their thought. even recently we had an ordinance code clean up come up around signage which includes transbay terminal and people wrote me because of the neighborhood now and it's not a solely financial commercial neighborhood and they don't want advertising in their windows and they have been pushing us to think differently about how signage o

criteria were the swaeths evaluation was the creativity of the business plan and the history of the respondent and profit and loss and cashful loss and credit history the business plan and prior experience proposed use of the retail site based upon the desires that the port has for serving its mission a working relationship with the cd organization to assist the l d v and references to give you an example of one of the respondents proposals looked like in terms of sheer volume this is what we received so again, just a tremendous effort those are small businesses working and to do this and put this kind of proposal with that comprehensive knowledge we were delighted they know do this and show a professional level it made the selection difficult because of the this type of effort as you can see in the proposal we ranked them and the rankings individually and incomprehensive come out with queens the louisiana cafe being the highest respondent i'm going to turn it over to bob casting so he can talk about queens. >> commissioner president katz and commissioner adams congratulations for your service

the shogi masters called out their moves then a driver rushed to the responding car and drove it to the correct square. they steered the cars through narrow gaps and around the board for nine hours until the match was over. japanese automaker helped to plan the event. organizers said it was the first time a shogi match of this size had been played. >>> that's "newsline" for this hour. i'm gene otani in tokyo. ? my police fire tear gas. pushing for peace in eastern ukraine -- leaders from ukraine russia, germany, and france promised to meet in dollars after the phone call fails to yield the concrete agreement. in a sweet second victory for the ivory coast. the elephants won the cup of nations tournament beating ghana -8 in overtime. you're watching "france 24."

the same level of presence? would you still be able to respond in the timelines we think we could respond to today? the answer to those is not likely. we want to maintain focus on this budget. we believe this budget is what the nation needs. if congress does not agree, we would answer that question specifically. >> you have a lot of people doing the math saying, so what if we lose $36 billion in sequestration, that is roughly where you were in 2009, why could you not live with $400 billion? when the iraq war was running out of control. what do you say to that? >> at the wartime peak, we dropped 22% to 33% off of that. we see challenges to our space constellation, the demands of keeping the nuclear deterrent force going, the demands and the problems we are facing potentially projecting power into certain theaters. because of the proliferation of these forces. in the past three years we have had flat budgets but we have taken risks both in readiness and capabilities to maintain the capacities the size of the force necessary to respond. we have three years of tilt up -- we have built up demand on moder

. >> at any rate the background noise is 50 dba and the night time novice 20 dba the respondent will say when the n judah rotundas but it is loud we're used to that that is a rumble not the screeching one hundred disembarkation back up beepers and the scraping of the beepers that just wake you up it's not just me, you saw in the brief i think i said 54 maybe i was tired 45 people signed the petition many live across the street and some further away those beeping sound travel a frequency a thousand hertz is designed to be very noticeable so okay 0 that's the problem i'm here to in my brief i've proposed that we not revoke the night time noise permits so we say replace those 0 noisy beepers are a man on the ground so the fwhoiz a flag to signal when it is safe cal osha has approved many we've come this close to an agreement i called cynthia we might not have a hearing we'll withdraw it but we missed two things so there are 9 things we all agree on the only thing they said if this better beeper didn't workout they'll stop and go to a flarlg not until the next weekend we'll have to live w

serious about the solving of issues of the violence very is the models of the way programs in the responding and models such as the more magic program that needs to be wider spread i worked as a tutor at mira loma middle school and worked one-on-one with the kids at a younger age we need programs more consistently this will put a large dent in the violence that we're experiencing i certainly want to put that point out there we have a lot of soul and pain and my hearts go out to the moms and dads who has lost loved ones i feel the home zone type model and the models more consistently talking about 10 or 15 years that will help our community thank you. >> thank you, sir. >> next speaker >> welcome. >> first give honor to god and to the commissioners and everyone this is present my name is madding i didn't scott with the nation mothers in charge campaign for san francisco i'm here on behalf of what's happening in our city and the homicides such those are interrupted our souls i lost my son 9 years ago 19 years ago when there was 96 homicides his case remains unsolved i feel like right now we ar

page millers name reporting the responding district she's been a great leader in the district 0 not only formerly working with the department and with the institute of environment she works closely with my office and a number of transmissions and neighborhood advocates from the richmond and strong focused on seniors and bicyclists our office says she will not only represent home share but the neighborhoods as well as young women supporting transportation she'll bring a valuable point of view on the the line system it is really an example she's well-informed of the whole transportation system in our neighborhoods also ms. miller will be a strong voice for not only the geary rapid project a stronger project but supporting other neighborhoods needs and concerns as well i urge your support. >> thank you supervisor mar seeing no other names on the roster we'll open up for public comment any public comment on item 7 seeing none, public comment is closed mr. clerk, call the roll oh, same house, same call? we'll take that without objection. the item is adapted item 8. >> item 8 program up to $5

i tend to think this doesn't seem to be a police problem in the sense that they respond to us but they can't do anything. the people that are there come right back and there's no prosecution of anything. if a regular human being like me just an innocent bystander can see exactly who is responsible for what on a daily basis then i know that the that the people that control things can see that also. last week my car was broken into wholly while i was walking my dog and the next day i was going around my corner and i was patient ly waiting behind a a truck that was blocking my street and they were loitering and talking which is totally normal my street is always blocked off by drug dealers and when the gentleman was going to drive away instead of driving away he backed up into my car and drove off. i got his license plate number and a photograph but the police station was too busy to take my report so i texted the captain the captain which i do quite frequently and then there was no word on whether that person was caught you know i have good good insurance but 2 days later gun shots at my

so having sat on the jao committee with supervisor breed i wanted to respond to some of the amendments proposed. i know we had a two week continuance but we saw these amendments today so i wish we had a better opportunity to work on this -- >> we can continue again. >> while i don't fundamentally disagree with you supervisor avalos on some of the changes that you would like to see made i do want to respect our committee process and why we came to some of the conclusions that we did for our responses so i'm not going to go into every single change that has been made and why we made the decisions that we did in jao but for example for recommendation number 21 we responded the way we did because we want to during our regular budget process give our whole entire board of supervisors along with our city departments the ability to make decisions in the context of our budget process. again that is just one example of how we responded the way that we did. the second point is there are difference responses to make for the civil grand jury report and we can include a summary and explanation for

ants with the fbi so is it more of an intelligence gathering -- are they mostly working in the office responding to tips and assessing sort of threats to public events i'm wondering if you could just say what's a day in the life look like? >> it's a it's a compilation of all of the i of the things you mentioned commissioner. following up on potential tips to determine whether there is in fact some sort of credibility to that information . >> do they act primarily on their own or do they act at your direction? >> we are in constant contact with each other. . we review cases on on a regular basis. i review their cases on a quarterly basises as well to ensure compliance with policies and procedures. pretty much on a on a daily basis. >> thank you very much. >> yeah you know what lies underneath this ordinance is a sense of assurance of the ways the sfpd officers are comporting themselves and so it's good to hear that constantly reflecting that the fbi is clear on that i appreciate the chief reaching out to the fbi. my sense from your presentation is the scope of information you shared with us is ac

i read your complaint and it says the respondent refused to hire her because she failed to accommodate her religious beliefs by making an exception to the policy. i left that your brief. and looked at the jury charge and it seems like the two were always tied. failure to hire was because they refuse to accommodate her. >> that is correct and that has been our theory from the very beginning so the idea that 1981 a magically became part of this case when we mentioned that is just not credible. that has been the theory, where the damages were done. they never raised on appeal never raised it -- >> suppose they had. their argument is damages only for intentions. >> no court has ever addressed that but our position and the courts applied it that there was intentional discrimination in the 1981 a. is not a question that is before this court. the reason is 1981 a distinguishes between, and this is, and i am sorry, between the red briefs on page 1 a and 1981 a distinguishes between unlawful intentional discrimination, not an employment practice that is unlawful because of its disparate impact.

sancrow was named as the respondent. when the task force referred the matter to the ethics commission, it was mr. sancrow who was named as a respondent and that's because of the decision on whether to turnover the documents was mr. sancrow. the body of which you're apart, oversees the staff and can set policies, but the commission has the authority to conduct its day-to-day operations, and i think part of that is, as here, if their sancrow is sued, i think he can defend himself without having to seek the opinion or seek the approval of the overseeing commission. speaker: do you think it was a good idea that mr. sancrow did not at least inform the commission and seek the approval of the commission before starting and getting involved in such a major piece of litigation? aside from anything that might be your opinion relating to whether he can do this independently and the staff has some sort of independent power to do these things, do you think it might have been a good idea that he told us this was going on and sought out

the north's ruling party newspaper rodong sinmun reports that the country will respond militarily if exercise is held. the south korean spokesperson said the north was notified earlier in the day. he also said the drills will be carried out regardless of pyongyang's stance. analysts say both the u.s. and south korea are bracing for another possible military provocation by the north. >>> japan and china have engaged in a harsh battle of words. in an open debate at the u.n. security council. chinese foreign minister chaired the debate on global peace and security. the session was organized to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the end of world war ii and the foundation of the united nations. >> translator: there are historical facts regarding the world's fight. but some are still reluctant to admit their past crimes of aggression. >> japan's ambassador to the united nations responded to the comment. >> since becoming a member of the united nations, japan has made efforts to contribute to the peace and prosperity of the world. >> japan's top government spokesperson has weighed in. chief

what olbermann said and how the network responded. but first lets check object traffic and weather together. good morning. >> it be will be a quiet day all things considered because we have a fast flow in the atmosphere. we are tracking a arctic cold front. we are tracking another new storm tomorrow. another front to the weekend. the chillies still stuck here for the next couple of days. lots to discuss but at least for now all is calm. how about for you, vittoria. >> all is calm katie sure is, very calm, very serene. we have a pretty shot of the ben franklin bridge, no delays in either direction. we are looking good all over travel in pennsylvania, delaware and new jersey it is fantastic. we are waiting for a rush hour and things will definitely change. would i say 6:15 or so we will see that change. traveling on the roosevelt boulevard no major delays. everything is still very calm serene, all is good and well h in major

the driver responded i'm just parking here momentarily. and then jackson allegedly told him to get the bleep out of my parking space. and that's when police say jackson assaulted the driver punching him twice in the head. we just had a crew interview that delivery driver and he reports to us that it was so much more than that. he claims that jackson choked him and dragged him out of the car even kicking him in the head. he got emotional during this interview. he also alleges that jackson begged him not to press charges. we did reach out to the indianapolis colts this morning for their comment on that. they told us that they're aware of the arrest but they had no further comment. as for jackson, back here live he's inside that apartment we believe, here on 12th street in the u street area. police are now inside that apartment because we understand that the occupants of the apartment are upset about the media being out here. at one point, i was in the alley. police responded to a suspicious persons call and said that i was a suspicious person
